[19:54] <carandraug> danielm_mc: if you select to configure the guifications plugin, uncheck the boxes "join" and "leave". That's what you want. If you decide to install XChat, install the normal version, not the Gnome version (I've heard it hides lots of stuff in the GUI)
[19:55] <Ardorin> Isn't there and nvidia gui to activate the external monitor port ona laptop?
[19:55] <jkristheking> xchat for gnome is very bad lol

[19:57] <Kedare> Hi all
[19:57] <mcdaniel> ?
[19:57] <Kedare> Somebody can tell me what the difference between Ubuntu Server and Debian please ?
[19:57] <Sergnome> can i make my own channel?
[19:57] <norbert108> how can i patch kde2 under bsd? :)
[19:57] <danielm_mc_> ?
[19:58] <Pici> Kedare: lsb_release -a
[19:58] <gadhizt_belia> how i can get akill ban release???
[19:58] <erUSUL> Kedare: they are different distributions with different packages and versions
[19:58] <gadhizt_belia> sumone help me??
[19:58] <Pici> norbert108: This is the Ubuntu support channel, try #openbsd
[19:58] <Kedare> erUSUL: and why choose ubuntu server or debian ?
[19:59] <erUSUL> gadhizt_belia: what do you want?
[19:59] <Pici> gadhizt_belia: In regards to an Ubuntu channel?
[19:59] <erUSUL> Kedare: personal preference; is up to you
[19:59] <gadhizt_belia> i get a akill from dalnet channel last week
[19:59] <gadhizt_belia> how can i release??
[19:59] <Pici> gadhizt_belia: Talk to their operators, this has nothing to do with Ubuntu or Freenode.
[19:59] <gadhizt_belia> it's really annoying
[19:59] <Kedare> erUSUL: but i can't choose if i don't know the difference between both :/
[20:00] <gadhizt_belia> i use  an xchat
[20:00] <Pici> gadhizt_belia: This is not Dalnet. This is Freenode, and you're asking in the Ubuntu support channel.
[20:00] <usamahashimi> Hello Everyone!
[20:00] <gadhizt_belia> i know
[20:00] <gadhizt_belia> but i use ubuntu
[20:00] <usamahashimi> How can I convert a .flv file to .mp3 (audio)?
[20:01] <Legendario> every time i restart the session it uses gtk instead of emerald. someone told me to use the command "emerald --replace" which actually works, but i have to type that on every session. How can i fix it?
[20:01] <Pici> gadhizt_belia: #ubuntu-offtopic might be able to help.
[20:01] <gadhizt_belia> i  thought someone could help me
[20:01] <CAPADIMERDA> :D
[20:01] <bastid_raZor> Legendario; add that command to sessions
[20:01] <CAPADIMERDA> lol
[20:01] <erUSUL> Kedare: the difference is less than with RH/CentOs/fedora ... most conf files and other things are similar/equal
[20:01] <erUSUL> Kedare: as i said is up to you.
[20:02] <Legendario> bastid_razor, ok. i believe this will work, but it didn't use to be like that on the past... Can u guess why?
[20:02] <Kedare> erUSUL: it look like ubuntu have most "Fresh" (recent) Packages ?
[20:03] <ill_phaze> So I've got a bit of a problem. The boot drive on my current machine is 'swappable' and I have two drives (one with xp and one with ubuntu).  This wasn't a huge problem because I just swapped it for the ubuntu drive. HOWEVER, now I can't access any of the NTFS partitions that I used to be able to access in ubuntu. It's saying that they were shut down wrong in windows and I need
[20:03] <erUSUL> Kedare: yep compared with the stable debian release yes... it releases every 6 months ...
[20:03] <ill_phaze>   to load up windows and shut down properly. Is there anyway around this?
[20:03] <bastid_raZor>  Legendario i don't use emerald so.. right off i don't know.
[20:03] <erUSUL> ill_phaze: ntfsfix from ntfsprogs
[20:04] <erUSUL> !info ntfsprogs | ill_phaze
[20:04] <erUSUL> ill_phaze: yep
[20:04] <jimcooncat> I want to package a custom configuration, for example, openssh-server. I just want to have my custom /etc/ssh/sshd_config and a postinst to reload the running sshd. Should openssh-server be a depends of my new package, or pre-depends?
[20:04] <dooglus> ill_phaze: do you have another windows machine you can fix the disks with?
[20:04] <Sergnome> i need to have my own channel, for conferrences
[20:04] <erUSUL> !pm | ill_phaze yes it is a package you can install
[20:04] <Sergnome> i am ubuntu georgian translators temam on launchpad
[20:04] <jrib> Sergnome: /msg chanserv help
[20:04] <krekon> how could I make reiserfs in fstab to have write permission in user mode?
[20:05] <Kedare> The only debian distro i can't install remotely to my server is 4.0, it use recent packages ?
[20:05] <MrKennie> in modprobe.d/options, are the options seperated by space, comma or is it 1 per line?
[20:05] <Pici> Sergnome: See #freenode for more help.
[20:05] <dooglus> krekon: just don't mount it readonly?
[20:05] <bastid_raZor> MrKennie; one per line
[20:05] <jrib> Sergnome: ask #ubuntu-translators as well if there are any conventions you should follow
[20:05] <MrKennie> bastid_raZor: thanks
[20:06] <krekon> dooglus : I don't
[20:06] <bruno> how can I install a new cursor theme?
[20:07] <sidewalk> im having problems with dpkg
[20:07] <sidewalk> after installing 8.04.1 i ran the updates and it hung
[20:07] <jrib> sidewalk: pastebin the command you run and the error you receive
[20:07] <deepfriedsquirre> Where are all the packages that I've downloaded with apt? /var/cache/apt/archives?
[20:07] <jrib> deepfriedsquirre: yes...
[20:07] <erUSUL> deepfriedsquirre: yes
[20:07] <mikj> ciao

[20:08] <sidewalk> when running apt-get upgrade i get the following error message: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[20:08] <jrib> sidewalk: you need to *pastebin* everything in full
[20:08] <ill_phaze> That solved my issue. You guys are awesome!
[20:08] <deepfriedsquirre> Hmm, I'm just wondering why my partition has 21GB of data in it when I uninstalled pretty much everything to get ubuntu-desktop with one or two other things installed and I only have about 500mb in apt's cache.
[20:09] <KRF> deepfriedsquirre, apt-get clean
[20:10] <deepfriedsquirre> KRF: yeah I'll try that...
[20:10] <debCarlos> hi
[20:10] <jrib> deepfriedsquirre: use Accessories -> Disk Usage Analyzer
[20:11] <deepfriedsquirre> Yeah, baobab's been nice to me in the past.
[20:15] <deepfriedsquirre> Grrr, gparted keeps on failing, ti's driving me barmy.
[20:16] <deepfriedsquirre> Oh, I got this CD without a hash in ubuntu hasehs
[20:16] <nixbox> ubuntu does not have madwifi drivers?
[20:16] <deepfriedsquirre> Which I found quite wierd
[20:16] <deepfriedsquirre> Hang on, I'll find the filename of the iso
[20:18] <assargadon> I testing my microphone with gnome-sound-recorder. And I can hear my voice in the speaker. Is it normal? Outbackwifi (it's nick of meber of this channel) told me "it's normall unless you mute you microphone". But if I mute it, recorder will not hear my voice, too, isn't it?
[20:19] <deepfriedsquirre> I have an ISO called Ubuntu_8.04_amd64.iso - I didn't find this in Ubuntu hashes. Why? How can I check it?
[20:20] <deepfriedsquirre> Hmm, a quick google search didn't reveal anything
[20:20] <Pici> deepfriedsquirre: Is that the server or desktop or alternate CD?
[20:20] <sladen> deepfriedsquirre: where did you get the ISO from[A/
[20:21] <Quibus> !fglrx
[20:21] <deepfriedsquirre> One of Ubuntu's download mirrors
[20:21] <jrib> deepfriedsquirre: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes check your hash against all of the ones here
[20:21] <deepfriedsquirre> And it's the desktop one
[20:21] <deepfriedsquirre> jrib: Not found
[20:21] <deepfriedsquirre> Maybe it's a bad cd.
[20:22] <jrib> deepfriedsquirre: download it again then from a mirror that names things correctly :)
[20:22] <deepfriedsquirre> Yeah
[20:22] <deepfriedsquirre> Cheers lol
[20:22] <deepfriedsquirre> Maybe it's that I extracted the ISO from CD after deleting it from the computer and brasero or whatever I used named the extracted ISO based on the name of the CD.
[20:23] <Quibus> Hi, where can I get help to get fglrx working?
[20:23] <Lamo> Need help getting my nvidia beta driver to stick. Every time I reboot after installing the driver on my Compaq Presario CQ50-115NR it defaults back to no driver with low res. To install I drop to bash(ctrl+alt+F1)at login, then run sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop followed by sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86-177.70-pkg1.run which it installs fine till reboot.
[20:24] <jrib> Lamo: why didn't you use System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers instead?
[20:24] <Lamo> jrib: cause that driver doesnt support my graphics card
[20:25] <jrib> Lamo: what card do you have

[20:33] <RawkFish> Ubottu thanks
[20:33] <taofeng> i made a huge mistake and converted to vfat my /home partition (while i was on my system stored on a USB disk)... Do you know how i could convert it back and have access to my file again ?
[20:33] <TheCount> jrib: in that particular case, apt-get install sun-java6-fonts

[20:36] <TheCount> jrib: but it seems more like I've been convinced to have fonts in my systems which I don't have
[20:36] <Zambezi> Anyone with libtiff-tools installed? I need the configurationfile for tiff2pdf how it is as default.
[20:37] <jrib> TheCount: where are you checking for the fonts?  I'll try to install them here
[20:37] <finalbeta> what would you personally use to take daily backups of a system? Knowing that you have a system around. The best thing would be to just be able to start a second machine to the state of last nights backup. Could dd do this for me? How does dd work with open files/databases?
[20:37] <jrib> Zambezi: why don't you just purge the package and install it again?
[20:37] <TheCount> jrib: I'm just installing msttcorefonts (*cough*)
[20:37] <TheCount> jrib: maybe that helps

[20:41] <gogzmer> phobos_: There is no desktop environment installed, and I would like to keep it that way if I can
[20:41] <Flannel> gogzmer: try "parted" but you'll need to be doing this while its offline unless you used LVM.  So you'll need to use a liveCD anyway.
[20:41] <phobos_> gogzmer: then use parted
[20:41] <phobos_> :)

[20:55] <ravendark> mik3: have a look in /etc/usplash.conf and make sure the resolution is set correctly.
[20:55] <jrib> billybigrigger: did it not move anything?
[20:55] <billybigrigger> jrib, moved everything but ~/btit all files/folders moved
[20:56] <billybigrigger> jrib, sorry my bad no prblm i guess
[20:56] <|Jack|> hi all i have small problem, i cant install ubuntu on my pc, always loading and loading screen , after this i see some a.. Shell, my pc is duron 800 mhz, 128 ram, radeon 9600XT
[20:56] <jrib> billybigrigger: it's because I forgot that in bash .* expands to . and .. sorry
[20:57] <jrib> billybigrigger: at least I think that's why
[20:57] <billybigrigger> jrib, ok, now sudo chown root:root /var/www/*.* and sudo chmod +r /var/www/*.* should make all files readable and owned by root correct?
[20:57] <Tamagotono> Does anyone know if there is working support for the G45 aka Cantiga aka x4500MHD video chipset in Gutsy?  I am only having limited luck in Intrepid A5 and was thinking about stepping down if it works.
[20:57] <jfincher_> I would say o+r
[20:57] <jrib> billybigrigger: no, only files with a '.' in them
[20:58] <jfincher_> just to be explicit
[20:58] <unop> o+r is not what he wants
[20:58] <billybigrigger> jrib, so /var/www/* then
[20:59] <jrib> billybigrigger: yes, but that will miss anything that starts with a '.' (there's probably nothing like that there though)
[20:59] <unop> billybigrigger, that will miss out the dotfiles you copied over though
[20:59] <mik3> ravendark: yeah that didn't do it. even when gdm sometimes 'misses' and you can see the boots up text, that is misaligned as well
[20:59] <unop> billybigrigger, shopt -s dotglob;  sudo chown root:root /var/www/*; sudo chmod +r /var/www/*
[20:59] <EJ> \\'elcome ßack bigfuzzyjesus
[21:00] <ravendark> mik3: hmm, i really don't know then, hang around and ask again and scour through the forums, i'm sure youll find someone thats had more experience with it
[21:00] <laughtear> intrepid is installed, it's working well, but the hardware drivers of nvidia does not work properly. i just installed the alpha 5 this evening..
[21:00] <laughtear>  the installed hardware driver is the 177th one of nvidia. but i also tried the 173 one before, nothing changed. i use this samsun 226bw in 800x600 now without 3d support (it should be 1680x1050
[21:01] <laughtear> help!
[21:01] <jrib> laughtear: please see the /topic about intrepid support
[21:01] <billybigrigger> unop, bah, now i can cd into any dir's
[21:01] <laughtear> i tried to call people on ubuntu+1, but there's no response even when i asked "anybody here" dude..=(
[21:02] <billybigrigger> unop, permssion denied
[21:02] <unop> billybigrigger, you mean you can't ?
[21:02] <billybigrigger> unop, yeah, because i changed owner to root:root right
[21:02] <jrib> laughtear: that doesn't mean you should ask it here... it just means you should be patient there and actually state your question
[21:02] <billybigrigger> unop, but i thought everything was readable???
[21:02] <sidewalk> im using an acer aspire 5024 and i want to have the wireless network card working, can anyone tell me how to get it working?
[21:03] <unop> billybigrigger, world needs execute bit set if you want to be able to cd into those directories .. just read does not suffice
[21:03] <billybigrigger> unop, bah thought i could get away with that
[21:03] <unop> billybigrigger, in other words, o+rx
[21:03] <sidewalk> !5024
[21:04] <sidewalk> !acer-acpi
[21:04] <billybigrigger> unop, read/execute? o is for???
[21:04] <_paneb> i am using ubuntu 8.04 integrated into a windows domain and i have a question: how can i "cd" to a windows share (to execute scripts)?
[21:04] <sidewalk> !Aspire
[21:04] <jrib> !fishing | sidewalk
[21:04] <unop> billybigrigger, o = other = world .. same thing
[21:04] <jrib> !wifi > sidewalk
[21:04] <billybigrigger> unop, ok
[21:05] <billybigrigger> unop, man this is making me mad, i thought all files and folder/subfolders would be affected, now anything inside a folder still has billy's ownership, and rights are still -rw------- on all files inside the dir's
[21:05] <krauss> Does anyone know if the resolution of Ubuntu is resizable?
[21:06] <krauss> It's kind of hard on my eyes.
[21:06] <billybigrigger> unop /var/www/* doesn't affect anything inside dir's eh?
[21:06] <unop> billybigrigger, did you chown recursively?
[21:06] <rastafarix> In you humble opinion, which one is better Gnome or KDE?
[21:06] <bobertdos> krauss: What are you wanting to do, change the resolution?
[21:06] <jrib> rastafarix: try both and use what you like
[21:06] <billybigrigger> unop, no, just did sudo chmod o+rw /var/www/*
[21:07] <xzhou> vmware
[21:07] <krauss> Yes, Bobertdos
[21:07] <unop> billybigrigger, in that case, contents of directories are not affected
[21:07] <Odd-rationale> rastafarix: you must decide for your self. it is all about taste and choice...
[21:07] <unop> billybigrigger, only the directories themselves are
[21:07] <yates> no adobe acrobat for ubuntu?
[21:07] <billybigrigger> unop, oh, files/dirs in /var/www are affected but nothing inside the dirs
[21:07] <unop> !info acroread | yates
[21:07] <rastafarix> jrib: I want that my desktop looks really nice, where can I get some gnome skins, etc'?!?
[21:07] <unop> ooo
[21:07] <jrib> !themes > rastafarix
[21:07] <unop> billybigrigger, that's correct
[21:07] <bobertdos> krauss: So what are your options in System->Preferences->Screen Resolution?
[21:08] <billybigrigger> unop, -R at the end is recurvise?
[21:08] <yates> !xemacs
[21:08] <bobertdos> !medibuntu | yates
[21:08] <unop> billybigrigger, well, best not to put it at the end .. but if after chmod (or chown) itself
[21:08] <unop> s/if//
[21:08] <billybigrigger> unop so sudo chown root:root /var/www/* -R and chown o+rw /var/www/* -R
[21:09] <billybigrigger> unop oh ok
[21:09] <unop> billybigrigger, that would do .. but i would write it as.  sudo chown -R root.root /var/www/* #etc
[21:09] <yates> bobertdos: thanks - i'm very new to ubuntu - how do i configure apt to use another repostiory?
[21:09] <krauss> Bobertdos: I didn't see that there. You helped already
[21:09] <krauss> Bobertdos: Thanks
[21:09] <bobertdos> krauss: :)
[21:09] <billybigrigger> unop, difference between root:root or root.root is there any?
[21:10] <bobertdos> yates: Follow the guide. Copy and paste things, it's easiest.
[21:10] <unop> billybigrigger, not so much with GNU chown, you can use either
[21:10] <billybigrigger> unop ok cool
[21:10] <Brazilll> hola
[21:10] <krauss> Ok
[21:10] <krauss> I just clicked Sign in on youtube
[21:11] <krauss> And firefox died.
[21:11] <bobertdos> krauss: Has it crashed abruptly like that before?
[21:11] <krauss> Bobertdos: first time.
[21:12] <krauss> Bobertdos: And I just tried it again, same result.
[21:12] <yates> bobertdos: ok, thanks
[21:12] <bobertdos> krauss: What version of flash are you using?
[21:12] <Brazilll> é nois
[21:12] <krauss> Bobertdos: the latest, I just installed it
[21:12] <speakman> hi folks!
[21:12] <krauss> Bobertdos: 9 I think it is.
[21:12] <scifiguy951> what kind of scan would i do in nmap to find pc's connected to my router?
[21:12] <bobertdos> yates: Feel free to ask if any of that confuses you.
[21:13] <Brazilll> soy BRasil
[21:13] <speakman> I'm looking for an IDE which don't requires special project files, but can run "make" an such. Much like "textmate" on Mac. Any ideas?
[21:13] <bobertdos> !br | Brazilll
[21:13] <Brazilll> vlw
[21:13] <billybigrigger> unop, thanks for the help bro
[21:13] <dep> scifiguy951: nmap isn't the tool you want to use, your router should be able to tell you who is connected to it if it is a prefabricated router, if it is a linux box, I can point you to a few commands
[21:13] <bulgaristan>  /ns register bulgaristan
[21:14] <bulgaristan>  /ns register bulgaristan  asl1122
[21:14] <scifiguy951> it is winxp
[21:14] <felix-da-catz> I am having a hard time getting my linksys wpc54gs card working with Hardy Heron.  I have tried the ndiswrapper method and it doesn't seem to be working properly.
[21:14] <bobertdos> krauss: I always like to be sure of the flash version. So, would you mind checking about:plugins in Firefox, please?
[21:14] <scifiguy951> on the pc that is connected
[21:14] <krauss> Bobertdos: Ok
[21:14] <bulgaristan> hello
[21:14] <jvargas> hi
[21:14] <jrib> bulgaristan: hi, you need to choose a new password
[21:14] <bulgaristan> you can gime a little help :)
[21:14] <bulgaristan> so i install ubuntu
[21:14] <jvargas> flash 10 on firefox 3 causes a crash
[21:14] <yusuf_> close
[21:14] <jvargas> anyone had this problem?
[21:15] <jrib> bulgaristan: don't use enter to break up your thoughts as it makes it harder to follow what you are saying
[21:15] <yates> bobertdos: does ubuntu use the /sbin/chkconfig and /sbin/service mechnism for services, like the sshd ssh daemon?
[21:15] <bulgaristan> but i think i`m a little of bit a lamer
[21:15] <bulgaristan> mand i have allot of bug they are
[21:15] <cheeky> iam sooexhausted
[21:15] <bobertdos> yates: I'm not sure, I'd assume so.
[21:15] <krauss> Bobertdos: Yep, 9.
[21:15] <unop> yates, no .. debian/ubuntu uses update-rc.d and invoke-rc.d for chkconfig and service respectively
[21:15] <timo> hi dose open office have an irc channel ?
[21:15] <bulgaristan> lol
[21:16] <bobertdos> jvargas: This is a known bug. I know it's getting fixed for the next release. In the meantime, there is a workaround.
[21:16] <jrib> !openoffice | timo
[21:16] <jvargas> bobertdos: tell me
[21:16] <dooglus> timo: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/IRC_Communication
[21:16] <timo> thank you
[21:16] <yates> bulgaristan: i just installed ubuntu yesterday for the first time after using fedora for 3 years and out of the box it's 10 times better.
[21:16] <felix-da-catz> in dmesg I am getting b43-phy0 ERROR: You must to go http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware and download the correct firmware (version 4).  However whenever I try to download and install the b43-fwcutter it does not make for me.
[21:16] <bulgaristan> =)
[21:16] <bulgaristan> yea
[21:16] <jvargas> bobertdos: with youtube it works ok, but in a page with jw media player it crashes
[21:16] <dooglus> timo: specifically: #Openoffice.org  Users and generic channel, please use this for questions related to OOo usage
[21:16] <bulgaristan> but i have a simple bug
[21:16] <bulgaristan> like my player
[21:16] <bulgaristan> i`m from bulgaria
[21:16] <FloodBot1> bulgaristan: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:17] <bulgaristan> and have a unicode problems i dont know why
[21:17] <bulgaristan> see
[21:17] <jrib> bulgaristan: stop pressing enter
[21:17] <yates> unop: thanks
[21:17] <bobertdos> krauss: Do you have libflashsupport installed? I find for some people that disabling compiz (Visual Effects set to None) helps.
[21:17] <bulgaristan> srr
[21:17] <jrib> !bg > bulgaristan
[21:18] <bulgaristan> wow srr
[21:18] <krauss> Bobertdos: I don't think so. I used the Adobe site's instructions. And how is that done?
[21:18] <unop> yates, though if you want the service command,  the debian-helper-scripts package offers one
[21:18] <bobertdos> jvargas: Open a terminal. Type sudo mkdir /etc/adobe
[21:19] <jvargas> bobertdos: done
[21:19] <timo> jvargas: ls /etc/adobe
[21:19] <sarthor> HI. i install gyachi.deb with default pakage manager in GUI, No i want to remove that, but i want to clear all the directories, settings, that made, how can i do that???
[21:20] <jvargas> timo: nothing, just created it
[21:20] <jrib> sarthor: sudo apt-get purge PACKAGE
[21:20] <timo> ahhh ?
[21:20] <sarthor> jrib, thank you
[21:20] <timo> it should be created
[21:20] <bobertdos> jvargas: Get into that directory. Then, type: gksudo gedit mms.cfg
[21:20] <up_the_irons> can someone point me to a doc that explains how codepages work?  I learned all about locale yesterday, and got UTF-8 working in rxvt-unicode, but inside mutt, people who send me stuff from Windows and CP1252 charset, doesn't show up correctly.  I'm wondering what I'm missing.
[21:20] <jvargas> bobertdos: what to put in
[21:21] <bobertdos> timo: No, that directory doesn't exist unless you create it yourself.
[21:21] <_paneb> how can i 'cd' to CIFS mounts? when i open them with nautilus they are mounted on the desktop, but i cannot cd to them
[21:21] <timo> ahh
[21:22] <bobertdos> jvargas: WindowlessDisable=true, then save the file and restart firefox.
[21:22] <laptop> Where can I see the list of KDE themes?
[21:22] <unop> _paneb, you'll have to mount the shares using mount.cifs
[21:22] <laptop> I want to enhance visual appearance of my desktop
[21:22] <bobertdos> jvargas: You'll notice that the old drop-down menu problem comes back, but at least the crashes go away.
[21:22] <krauss> Bobertdos: How do you disable the Visuals?
[21:23] <jvargas> bobertdos: thanks!
[21:23] <bobertdos> krauss: System->Preferences->Appearance->Visual Effects, set to None.
[21:23] <jvargas> bobertdos: yeah, drop down menu is under the video screen. but it works.
[21:23] <krauss> Bobertdos: Thanks man
[21:23] <billybigrigger> if mysql is installed is it safe to leave the any user no password with usage privilages or can i delete the 3 entries?
[21:24] <timo> when you compy and pase why is the font different in openoffice?
[21:24] <timo> copy* paste*
[21:24] <jvargas> bobertdos: i hoped flash player 10 solved that problem as said in new features list.
[21:24] <krauss> Bobertdos: Appearances not in the menu man.
[21:25] <khaled> هل استطيع الكتابة باللغه العربية sorry  it's test my lang
[21:25] <bobertdos> jvargas: The blog I follow for Linux flash already says this bug has been fixed in the next batch of alphas, so I would expect it'll be fine in the next version.
[21:25] <khaled> exit
[21:25] <jvargas> bobertdos: thanks bobertdos, where is this blog, so I can stay advised
[21:25] <khaled> quit
[21:26] <bobertdos> jvargas: http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/
[21:26] <guntbert> krauss: the second item from top
[21:26] <bobertdos> jvargas: This blog is also how I know about the workaround.
[21:27] <scifiguy951> how can i find pc's on my router?
[21:27] <scifiguy951> and connect to them?
[21:27] <sarthor> how can i install getlibs on my hardy??
[21:27] <krauss> Guntbert: That's desktop background
[21:27] <sarthor> its not working with apt-get
[21:27] <jvargas> bobertdos: i see. thanks a lot bobertdos :-)
[21:27] <jfincher_> abchirk: I followed the instructions there, and they worked up until the "dhclient ath0" part, which fails without getting an DHCPOFFERS
[21:27] <tobyr> Hey guys, is there a way to install Xubuntu using grud?
[21:27] <tobyr> Grub?
[21:27] <tobyr> Can't use CD, Can't use USB....
[21:27] <guntbert> krauss: what version are you using?
[21:28] <jfincher_> abchirk: I know the AP is working, however, because I'm using it from wireless elsewhere
[21:28] <dep> sarthor: I've never heard of "getlibs", what is it?
[21:28] <krauss> Guntbert: Ubuntu 5.10
[21:28] <tobyr> Was thinking I could extract the ISO to a folder and get Grub to boot from it
[21:28] <Odd-rationale> tobyr: do you ubuntu installed right now?
[21:28] <Jowi> tobyr, you can install via network

[21:29] <abchirk> jfincher_ laptop?
[21:29] <krauss> Guntbert: Right, it's fine. =D
[21:29] <bobertdos> krauss: Is there a reason you're using such an old version?
[21:30] <Jowi> tobyr, last link might be work to have a look at
[21:30] <tobyr> That Wiki page is great, found loads of stuff, thanks :)
[21:30] <abchirk> jfincher_ I needed to switch off then on... before that he didn't connected and use wicd instead of networkmanager
[21:30] <echinos> What would an ls entry with blue text and green background mean?
[21:30] <Odd-rationale> tobyr: also, try http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
[21:30] <dep> sarthor: it isn't in the ubuntu repos, you're going to have to install it manually
[21:30] <krauss> bobertdos: It's all I could get my hands on. I'm just a 15 year old
[21:30] <tobyr> wicked, thanks :)
[21:31] <SirBijan> hello all
[21:31] <Odd-rationale> krauss: you can order the latest version for free: https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
[21:31] <SirBijan> i'm having a problem regarding mounting my freebsd slice inside ubuntu
[21:31] <bobertdos> krauss: Well, that shouldn't mean anything ;) Do you have high speed internet and a disc burner?
[21:31] <sarthor> dep is it safe to use?
[21:31] <SirBijan> inside ubuntu, I write: mount -r -t ufs -o ufstype=ufs2 /dev/sda2 /media/ttt
[21:32] <SirBijan> and it works fine, the only thing is that it only mounts the root partition of my freebsd slice
[21:32] <krauss> bobertdos: I sure do
[21:32] <dep> sarthor: it appears to be a user generated shell script (looking at it here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=474790) I have no idea if it is safe, from a quick glance over it it looks fine to use
[21:33] <bobertdos> krauss: Then I would suggest downloading the LiveCD iso for Hardy and making your own Hardy disc.
[21:33] <blue112> Hello everyone, I have a problem of rights, can you help me ?
[21:33] <zetheroo>  I downloaded the Kubuntu 8.04.1 ISO and was installing it in Virtual Box ,, I got a popup window saying that the session was locked and its asking for a password to unlock it..... whats the password?
[21:33] <Odd-rationale> blue112: sure. just ask :D
[21:34] <dep> blue112: get a lawyer =) Kidding, just ask the question and if someone can help they will
[21:34] <blue112> :p
[21:34] <abchirk> :p
[21:34] <dep> zetheroo: whatever your user password is. The automatic locking is to prevent others from using your machine if you walk away and forget to log out
[21:34] <krauss> Oh boy
[21:35] <krauss> More installing
[21:35] <krauss> XD
[21:35] <SirBijan> anybody with FreeBSD slice mounting inside ubuntu in here?
[21:35] <romulo> hi, my ubuntu stopped displaying message about usb pendrives i put, like when i unmount then it no longer appears the notification to not remove it, how i restore that?
[21:35] <zetheroo> dep: well its the live session ... and the user name is ubuntu ...
[21:35] <bobertdos> krauss: It's not so bad, but I WOULD suggest starting from scratch.
[21:35] <dep> zetheroo: oh, LiveCD? Interesting....I'm assuming you tried to just use a blank password, right?
[21:36] <xbxb> Hey, every time I want to mount a block device to my file system, I have to create the folder I'll mount it to beforehand. How come the folder isn't created/deleted automatically once I mount/unmount, since it's just an abstraction anyway?
[21:36] <Odd-rationale> krauss: 5.10 is no longer supported anyways... it is strongly reccomended to upgrade your version...
[21:36] <zetheroo> dep: I pressed a key combination and the window popped up saying the session has been locked ... asking for a password
[21:36] <blue112> I have a directory, for exemple project/ which I want to be shared by 10 users. So i've created a group, "write", and I've added each user to the group. After that, I've done a sudo chown -R :write project/. Then, everything is ok. But if a user (toto), create a file in this directory, it doesn't belong to the group, but to toto. So the other members can't edit it. How can I do ?
[21:36] <zetheroo> dep: yes I tried it blank
[21:37] <jrib> blue112: Access Control Lists  is the only way I know
[21:37] <dep> zetheroo: k, one sec, trying to recreate with a virtbox session
[21:37] <zetheroo> dep: ok thanks
[21:37] <blue112> jrib: I don't know about it, can you tell me more ?

[21:40] <FloodBot2> scifiguy951: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:40] <bobertdos> krauss: Not to get off topic, but if you're concerned about your age, let me just tell you that I ran across an eight-year-old here one day who did a Wubi installation of Hardy!
[21:40] <aarcane> scifiguy951, /exec -o yes
[21:40] <jrib> scifiguy951: don't run that
[21:40] <jrib> aarcane: don't do that here
[21:41] <scifiguy951> dont run what?>
[21:41] <_Zeus_> scifiguy951: that is for another irc server
[21:41] <aarcane> jrib, you suck :(  he's not even asking about ubuntu, and probably running windows.
[21:41] <_Zeus_> not freenode
[21:41] <scifiguy951> ok
[21:41] <_Zeus_> what does that do? :-P
[21:41] <scifiguy951> how do i get in that room on xchat?
[21:41] <_Zeus_> scifiguy951: you need to get the server name
[21:41] <krauss> bobertdos: Wow...........
[21:42] <scifiguy951> how could i find it out?
[21:42] <krauss> bobertdos: And The Bahamas is not that advanced in technology anyways.
[21:42] <_Zeus_> scifiguy951: i have no idea
[21:42] <scifiguy951> would it say in the java applet?
[21:42] <scifiguy951> when i connect?
[21:42] <_Zeus_> scifiguy951: this is ubuntu support not wewillhelpyouwithwhateveryouneed support
[21:42] <_Zeus_> scifiguy951: why don;t you connect and look?
[21:42] <zetheroo> dep: that send me to login to my real user.... and I don't want to do that
[21:42] <scifiguy951> lol
[21:42] <scifiguy951> k thnx
[21:42] <CapitalT_> Any Eclipse user here?
[21:42] <CapitalT_> Does the side panels minimize vertically (like on Windows) or do they look like this http://www.picoodle.com/view.php?img=/3/9/8/f_snapshot1m_e1a3c62.png&srv=img26
[21:43] <bobertdos> krauss: but that's exactly the type of environment where the open-source movement thrives the most :D
[21:43] <AnIsTrUk> t.org
[21:43] <karname> how i can download a web directory and all files on it and all subdirectory ?
[21:44] <krauss> bobertdos:  I guess that's why I'm here, huh? ;)
[21:44] <CapitalT_> karname: httrack
[21:44] <dep> zetheroo: ok, perhaps I misunderstood the problem, you're using a LiveCD and accidentally brought up the screen lock utility, but there is not a valid password for the user "ubuntu", right?
[21:44] <bernrdo> hey folks - anybody tried installing Ubuntu 8.04 on a ThinkPad T400 laptop? Got my new laptop today, can't get Ubuntu installed. Got the Intel x4500 integrated video card. I boot the Ubuntu CD, run "Install Ubuntu", and all I get is a shell prompt. Can I install ubuntu from there? What command to run?
[21:44] <_Zeus_> karname: not sure
[21:44] <_Zeus_> bernrdo: use try ubuntu
[21:44] <_Zeus_> not install
[21:45] <zetheroo> dep: I am using the liveCD ISO in Virtual Box
[21:45] <zetheroo> dep: and I am stuck in there
[21:45] <_Zeus_> why not reboot?
[21:45] <dep> zetheroo: ooooh, sorry, I missed the fact that you were in VB
[21:45] <bernrdo> @Zeus, I did that too - it loads the kernel, tries to start X but fails because of video driver issues I guess? ... and I end up in a shell prompt again
[21:45] <karname> CapitalT_ : can you write a example for me , for example i need to download this directory : http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/~pohl/C++BD/ , what should write?
[21:45] <_Zeus_> bernrdo: hmmmmmmmmm that's bad
[21:45] <draginxx> Does anyone know the solution to getting skype to not have the audio playback error under ubuntu 8.04 64bit?
[21:45] <blue112> jrib: ACL seem to be a little bit too complicated, I have to change partitions settings etc... I don't want to change system stability.
[21:45] <redvamp128> Anyone ever use LXDE? I added firefox to the panel - but it has an X with a box- the icon works but no right click change icon? Any suggestion.
[21:45] <draginxx> It was *just* working this morning.. for me
[21:46] <jrib> blue112: I know of no other way
[21:46] <CapitalT_> karname: http://www.httrack.com/html/fcguide.html
[21:46] <_Zeus_> bernrdo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2276536
[21:46] <bernrdo> @Zeus: it does load X and it gives me the option to configure the video card ("Low graphics mode" or something like that) I configure it & press continue, and it just dies / goes back to the shell
[21:46] <blue112> jrib: Can't I set a sort of "umask" for this directory which applies right and group to every file created in ?
[21:46] <ralf_> hi
[21:46] <CapitalT_> karname: you probably won't use the gazillion options
[21:46] <_Zeus_> yeah try what that thread says
[21:46] <zetheroo> deb: yeah
[21:46] <_Zeus_> blue112: chmod?
[21:46] <zetheroo> dep: yeah
[21:47] <blue112> _Zeus_: ?
[21:47] <ralf_> groovy baby
[21:47] <paola> hello
[21:47] <_Zeus_> blue112: chmod is hoow you set permissions
[21:47] <blue112> _Zeus_ : I have a directory, for exemple project/ which I want to be shared by 10 users. So i've created a group, "write", and I've added each user to the group. After that, I've done a sudo chown -R :write project/. Then, everything is ok. But if a user (toto), create a file in this directory, it doesn't belong to the group, but to toto. So the other members can't edit it. How can I do ?
[21:47] <zacha> I created a swap partition after I installed ubuntu, how to I get it to swapon automatically?
[21:47] <ralf_> yeah
[21:47] <zetheroo> dep: well i went ahead and reset it
[21:47] <jrib> blue112: yes, using ACLs.  You can do the group thing by setting setguid on the directory, but you can't do anything about a umask just for that directory
[21:47] <_Zeus_> blue112: ohhhhh
[21:47] <Lamo> when installing kde4 which packages should I install?
[21:48] <bobertdos> zacha: Add an entry into fstab for the partition.
[21:48] <ralf_> peace
[21:48] <dep> zetheroo: oh, well, you just want to use the host key instead of ctrl-alt to access the ttys, for example, instead of "ctrl-alt-F6" hit "host key-F6"
[21:48] <dep> zetheroo: doh
[21:48] <bernrdo> @Zeus: THANKS! Reading & trying.
[21:48] <redvamp128> zacha I can tell you what you need to do- but I had to have help for my system- You have to edit the Fstab file
[21:48] <_Zeus_> bernrdo: cool
[21:48] <zetheroo> dep: thankfully the install was complete
[21:48] <blue112> _Zeus_: So you know how to ?
[21:48] <_Zeus_> bernrdo: some of the previous settings they reference will be different (like "nv") but you should be able to find it
[21:48] <ralf_> bye folks
[21:48] <_Zeus_> blue112: no
[21:48] <_Zeus_> sry
[21:49] <karname> i don't httrack
[21:49] <dep> zetheroo: excellent, disaster narrowly averted
[21:49] <_Zeus_> blue112: i have no experience with a multiuser setup
[21:49] <zetheroo> dep: ha ... yeah
[21:49] <blue112> jrib: Yes, but I don't want to change partitions settings, that's a little dangerous...
[21:49] <jrib> blue112: not really...
[21:49] <_Zeus_> blue112: he said nothing about a partition setting
[21:49] <jrib> blue112: your just adding an option to your fstab
[21:49] <jrib> you're, ugh I hate that
[21:49] <redvamp128> I had to add one line to my fstab (sudo gedit /etc/fstab)
[21:49] <_Zeus_> redvamp128: and?
[21:49] <count0> ree
[21:49] <blue112> jrib: And how can I know a group id with it name ?
[21:50] <redvamp128> you have to tell it where the file is
[21:50] <redvamp128> by partition number
[21:50] <redvamp128> I can show you the line I added and you can go from there
[21:50] <_Zeus_> redvamp128: as in /dev/sdxn?
[21:50] <_Zeus_> redvamp128: please show it
[21:50] <redvamp128> my new swap is on 2cnd hard drive partition 3
[21:50] <redvamp128> so yours may be different
[21:50] <_Zeus_> redvamp128: then it should be /dev/sdb2
[21:50] <jrib> blue112: getent group GROUP
[21:50] <krauss> Wow.
[21:51] <_Zeus_> sdb2=second hd, 3rd partition
[21:51] <krauss> 1%
[21:51] <krauss> No wait.
[21:51] <krauss> 2%
[21:51] <_Zeus_> !flood | krauss
[21:51] <zacha> Thanks. I'm looking for what I need to add now
[21:51] <nloding> if i set a password for root (sudo passwd root) what file stores that info?
[21:51] <krauss> ...
[21:51] <blue112> jrib: Can I change partition settings without reboot computer ? I can't reboot it...
[21:51] <jrib> nloding: there's a hash in /etc/shadow why?
[21:51] <_Zeus_> nloding: why?
[21:51] <jrib> blue112: you can just remount
[21:51] <erUSUL> nloding: what info? the password?
[21:51] <blue112> (i've added it to /etc/fstab)
[21:52] <_Zeus_> nloding: you can't just read the password
[21:52] <_Zeus_> it's encrypted
[21:52] <nloding> i know i can't just read it
[21:52] <blue112> jrib: I can do it on / ?
[21:52] <bernrdo> @Zeus: yeah .. well ... under Device, I didn't even have an entry for Driver. I added "vesa" and it's loading X now - seems to work. Will keep up to date. Thx!
[21:52] <jrib> blue112: I believe so
[21:52] <_Zeus_> bernrdo: cool
[21:52] <blue112> jrib: Can you tell me how can I do it ?
[21:52] <Uranellus> hello, I want to enable remote syslog, for that there is the -r option for syslog .. but how can I make syslog only listen on a specific interface/ip ?
[21:52] <nloding> say i have two identical systems with ubutnu hardy heron; if i reset the pwd on one, and copy the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files to the other, will that reset it password too?
[21:52] <bernrdo> yup, works - thx a ton :)
[21:52] <_Zeus_> nloding: .... i doubt it
[21:53] <_Zeus_> i don't think so
[21:53] <_Zeus_> nloding: why not just boot to recovery mode and reset it???
[21:53] <nloding> it worked in freebsd and openbsd
[21:53] <_Zeus_> you don't need to input the password when booting to recovery mode
[21:53] <erUSUL> nloding: just reset it by hand ... carfully i might add
[21:53] <nloding> lets say i have 100 units and need to reset them all
[21:53] <nloding> and i want a shortcut :)
[21:54] <_Zeus_> nloding: do you know the root password?
[21:54] <nloding> when they were freebsd, i copied master.passwd, pwd.db, spwd.db, and psswd and it reset the units
[21:54] <nloding> yes
[21:54] <_Zeus_> oh, then that should work i guess
[21:54] <_Zeus_> i thought you forgot it
[21:54] <definitely> Hello i have one quesstion. Does Ubuntu use same apt sources.list like KUBUNTU ?
[21:54] <Muppeteer> Hey, can anyone tell me how to find out what driver my wireless card is using?
[21:54] <Yasumoto> definitely: yep
[21:54] <Alpha232> nloding: ssh?
[21:54] <bytor4232> I have two wireless networks I need to configure at two office yesterday for this laptop I'm on.  Is there any way to pre-configure network manager before I get on site?
[21:54] <rampageoberon> nloding: you can do an automated script to do them from plain text file i suppose
[21:54] <jrib> blue112: use -o remount   not sure if you also need to include all the options there.  Try
[21:54] <definitely> yasumoto: Xubuntu also uses the same ones ?
[21:54] <nloding> i'm not that familiar with unix security, so i don't know if freebsd operates the same ...
[21:54] <_Zeus_> yes
[21:54] <Yasumoto> definitely: yeah, it's all in /etc/apt/sourcs.list
[21:55] <nloding> Aplpha232: i would be using scp to copy the files ...... ?
[21:55] <erUSUL> nloding: well if the machines are clones (all software installed is the same) may work the problem is /etc/shadow may differ from machine to machine depending on software installed and users
[21:55] <Yasumoto> definitely: the differences between x/k/ubuntu are just the graphical desktop environment
[21:55] <nloding> hardware may be different, but users/software is identical
[21:55] <guntbert> nloding: yes, if the machines have the same accounts, copying /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow should do the trick
[21:55] <Alpha232> wt?   W: Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy-updates/multiverse/i18n/Translation-en_US.bz2  Could not connect to <IP_ADDRESS>:80 (<IP_ADDRESS>). - connect (111 Connection refused)
[21:55] <nloding> w00t
[21:55] <definitely> Yasumoto: Ok ok thnx, i know where is it, just i am upgradeing to Kubuntu from Xubuntu. So wanted to be sure for that apt sources are the same. :) Ok thnx a lot
[21:55] <nloding> off to try, report back later
[21:55] <Yasumoto> definitely: gotcha. no worries, glad to help :)
[21:56] <definitely> Yasumoto: Glad to get help. :P
[21:56] <blue112> jrib: Ok, i've done it. How can I check if everything is ok ?
[21:56] <jrib> blue112: type 'mount' and see if the options you set are there
[21:56] <blue112>  /dev/hda1 on / type ext3 (rw,acl)
[21:56] <blue112> Seems to be ok.
[21:57] <Alpha232> ahhh, where does apt find it's proxy settings?
[21:57] <ompaul> definitely, yes
[21:57] <jrib> blue112: yep
[21:57] <Muppeteer> Can anyone tell me how to find out which driver my wireless card is using please?
[21:57] <bytor4232> vomax: lspci
[21:57] <Muppeteer> thx
[21:57] <nloding> awesome, it works; i just needed someone to say "probably will" for me to do it -- didn't want to if there was no chance and it would hose it
[21:57] <blue112> jrib: So you've talked about setguid ? How can I set it ?
[21:58] <jrib> blue112: if you're using ACLs don't bother.  Read 'man chmod' if you must
[21:58] <bancada> ?
[21:58] <mik3> these 'advanced special effects' i just enabled, is this compiz or beryl and how can i change the theme of it?
[21:59] <jrib> mik3: compiz-fusion
[21:59] <_Zeus_> !info compizconfig-settings-manager | mik3
[21:59] <jrib> mik3: #compiz-fusion for support with themes and stuff
[21:59] <nickrud> Alpha232, /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/* , or http_proxy env variable
[21:59] <blue112> jrib: I don't understand. How can I make the files created into projets/ dir own by group "write" ?
[22:00] <jrib> blue112: just use ACLs.  You don't need to do that if you are using ACLs
[22:00] <blue112> jrib: I don't know how to use ACL the way I want...
[22:01] <erUSUL> !info eiciel
[22:02] <Yamakiri> How can I get root's password?
[22:02] <Odd-rationale> !root | Yamakiri
[22:02] <erUSUL> !root | Yamakiri
[22:02]  * erUSUL ouch!
[22:02] <philsf> hello, I used to have a lock icon in the notification area indicating my ssh keyphrase is cached (I guess in feisty I still had it), and I never seen it in a long time (ever since the upgrade to gutsy, also missing in hardy). Anyone know how to re-enable it?
[22:02] <Yamakiri> erUSUL: nothing's happening :p
[22:02] <Yamakiri> No bot PM
[22:03] <erUSUL> !root > Yamakiri
[22:03] <blue112> jrib: Ok, i've found something interestring.
[22:03] <nickrud> erUSUL, ooh, that's a good program, I hate doing acls by hand
[22:04] <erUSUL> blue112: what you want/need is setgid
[22:05] <erUSUL> blue112: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setuid
[22:05] <erUSUL> blue112: i quote "Setting the setgid permission on a directory (chmod g+s) causes new files and subdirectories created within it to inherit its groupID,"
[22:05] <darghe> DCC SEND LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
[22:06] <blue112> erUSUL: That's exactly what I want. But what about rights (w) ?
[22:06] <erUSUL> blue112: so "sudo chmod g+s writte" is all you need if i understand your requirements
[22:06] <_Zeus_> you mean write, not writte
[22:06] <jrib> erUSUL: he needs write permissions for the group
[22:06] <kieko> how do i register my name?
[22:07] <blue112> erUSUL: What is +s O_o ?
[22:07] <nickrud> !register | kieko
[22:07] <erUSUL> blue112: is sets the sticky bit
[22:07] <blue112> I don't know it.
[22:07] <erUSUL> blue112: sticky bit patented by Dennis Ritchie XD (some unix lore for free)
[22:08] <draginxx> Does anyone know the solution to getting skype to not have the audio playback error under ubuntu 8.04 64bit?
[22:08] <blue112> Ok, but what it does ?
[22:08] <Dorothy_Gale> hi all, my CD won't work under Xubuntu... same CD-ROM I installed it on
[22:09] <_Zeus_> Dorothy_Gale: what do you mean?
[22:09] <_Zeus_> do other cds work?
[22:10] <jadams_> when I create a new file, it's being created with me as the owner, but root as the group
[22:10] <nickrud> blue112, sticky bit means any file saved there will have the same group ownership as the containing directory does
[22:10] <timo> jadams_:  make sure the groups are right
[22:10] <timo> jadams_:  some times the groups can be two that fine
[22:10] <blue112> nickrud: So I don't need any setgid ?
[22:11] <Dorothy_Gale> _Zeus_, this is the first time I have tried to play an audio CD
[22:12] <erUSUL> blue112: dhooo i quote again "The setuid permission set on a directory is ignored on UNIX and GNU/Linux systems" :( trying here does indeed not work as spected
[22:12] <nickrud> blue112, setguid is useful, if both people are in that group. However, by default ubuntu only gives the owner write permissions. If you want both to have write, you'll need to change their umasks or use acls
[22:12] <blue112> nickrud: I'm trying to use acl...
[22:13] <nickrud> blue112, bhwwwaaahhhh, acls are from the devil. I've set them up a few times, but each time it's been the devil of a time
[22:13] <jrib> erUSUL: setgid should work fine on directories though
[22:13] <blue112> nickrud: Seems to be.
[22:13]  * nickrud doesn't like stretching his brain that hard.
[22:14] <odin_> Need help have lost access to a site...
[22:14] <blue112> Why does it says : group:write:rwx             #effective:r-x
[22:14] <jim570_> asdf
[22:14] <jrib> jim570_: aoeu
[22:14] <nickrud> blue112, I'm gonna look over that  eiciel  program erUSUL mentioned
[22:14] <tiina> hej jag skulle behöva veta vad för program man använder för att säga JA i terminal fönstret?
[22:15] <blue112> tiina: #ubuntu-de ?
[22:15] <jim570> .ubuntu.com
[22:15] <tiina> Hi anyone there who could help mee to get my problem solved
[22:15] <nickrud> tiina, well, english translation might help ;)
[22:15] <blue112> tiina: Ask your problem and if someone can answer he does :)
[22:15] <tiina> Need to know hoe to say yes on the terminalwindow?
[22:16] <blue112> What do you mean by say yes ?
[22:16] <nickrud> tiina, type yes??
[22:16] <tiina> yes....
[22:16] <nickrud> !se > nickrud
[22:16] <tiina> okey but my program is in swedish
[22:17] <nickrud> !se > tiina (they might have more clues about swedish language issues)
[22:17] <tiina> also...what is the program  which open tar,rar files in ubuntu?
[22:17] <erUSUL> jrib: yep ... weird if i do the chmod g+s as normal user it succeeds but is ignored but if i do it with sudo it works (tm)
[22:17] <nickrud> tiina, just right click a tar file; install rar and right click rar's
[22:17] <erUSUL> tiina: file-roller
[22:18] <Drk_Guy> Hi
[22:18] <Drk_Guy> Anyone needs help?
[22:18] <nickrud> Drk_Guy, my wallet is a bit light ...
[22:18] <danielm_mc_> yah, was hoping that some newbs would be around for a quick lesson
[22:19] <Drk_Guy> nickrud, lol
[22:19] <tiina> dosent work for me???
[22:19] <Moushira> I had ubuntu on dual boot, now when ubuntu starts I get a message with a list of commands available..and kernel is missing!
[22:19] <Moushira> shall I just re-install ubuntu?
[22:19] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Hey guys, quick question, does wicd work well with unsecured networks and dhcp?
[22:19] <strategy> Ubuntu can boot with the kernel missing!?
[22:19] <strategy> :O
[22:19] <jadams_> I've got a webdav share, and files that users make keep getting pushed to lost+found.  Anyone seen this before?
[22:19] <Drk_Guy> strategy, the kernel is the core, w/o it can't do anything
[22:20] <livingdaylight> ok, I've added a second Sata hard drive to my computer but i don't know how to reach it and format it
[22:20] <danielm_mc_> jadams check your svn config (?)
[22:20] <strategy> Drk_Guy, thats what i thought. Moushira said it booted up and told her the kernel is missing !?
[22:20] <nickrud> livingdaylight, install gparted and use that
[22:20] <Drk_Guy> strategy, but, if you don't want to reinstall, you can repair ubuntu the gentoo way
[22:20] <FreshUbuntuNoob> !gparted | livingdaylight
[22:20] <erUSUL> blue112: so te recapitulate change users umask to make files they create writtable for the group and use the "sudo chmod g+s write" to make files within write inherit the group
[22:20] <strategy> Drk_Guy, Wrong person. My ubuntu is working great atm.
[22:20] <Drk_Guy> strategy, messing up with rm -rf, right?
[22:20] <strategy> Drk_Guy, Wrong person. My ubuntu is working great atm.
[22:20] <strategy> Drk_Guy, you mean Moushira
[22:20] <livingdaylight> FreshUbuntuNoob, sanx... you're no noob, i can tell :D
[22:21] <Drk_Guy> strategy, lol
[22:21] <FreshUbuntuNoob> livingdaylight, I am a noob :p
[22:21] <erUSUL> livingdaylight: use gparted
[22:21] <blue112> erUSUL: How can I change users umask ?
[22:21] <Dorothy> _Zeus_, I just had to reboot to make sure I could still boot off the Xubuntu install disk... I could
[22:21] <pen_> anyone here know how to get the panel a curve edge?
[22:21] <pen_> gnome-panel
[22:21] <Drk_Guy> strategy, still, for Moushira to repair his system, he would need to recompile a kernel
[22:21] <erUSUL> blue112: "umask whatever" on their .bashrc
[22:21] <Dorothy> _Zeus_, it's odd, it just not showing up when I boot
[22:21] <livingdaylight> erUSUL, i expected to find it by default under System
[22:21] <Drk_Guy> strategy, and that's definitively not for noobs
[22:21] <strategy> Drk_Guy, yeah, i was just wondering about the kernel and booting and crap
[22:21] <erUSUL> livingdaylight: system>Admin>Partiton>Editor
[22:21] <bonk_> hi, I have done the following: sudo apt-get install rar ; sudo ln -fs /usr/bin/rar /usr/bin/unrar , but Archive manager still doesn't recognize rar files?
[22:21] <strategy> ya :O
[22:21] <nickrud> blue112, in ~/.bashrc , use umask 002 to have files saved as group writable
[22:22] <livingdaylight> erUSUL, yes, i don't have that
[22:22] <blue112> erUSUL: Actually they doesn't have .bashrc cause they all have the same home directory.
[22:22] <nickrud> Drk_Guy, not really, just download the deb, extract and put in place
[22:22] <jrib> bonk_: just install the actual unrar and get rid of your symlink
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> strategy, Bios loads GRUB, GRUB loads kernel and runs it
[22:22] <erUSUL> livingdaylight: sudo apt-get install gparted
[22:22] <pen_> anyone here know how to get the panel a curve edge?
[22:22] <strategy> Drk_Guy, yep
[22:22] <pen_> gnome-panel
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> nickrud, chrooting
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> nickrud, that's complex
[22:22] <erUSUL> blue112: /etc/bash.bashrc ??
[22:22] <livingdaylight> erUSUL, so, its not in Ubuntu by default?
[22:22] <nickrud> Drk_Guy, live cd, whatever. And it's simple, walked several through it before
[22:23] <bonk_> jrib: apt-get install unrar?
[22:23] <Drk_Guy> nickrud, have you gone trough gentoo install?
[22:23] <jrib> bonk_: yes
[22:23] <Dorothy> hi all, if anyone can help me it would be apriciated
[22:23] <blue112> erUSUL: Ok.
[22:23] <jrib> Dorothy: best to just ask the channel your question
[22:23] <nickrud> Drk_Guy, no, I did my source stuff with lfs years ago. Gentoo come lately
[22:23] <erUSUL> livingdaylight: do not remember
[22:23] <Dorothy> I did
[22:23] <Dorothy> jrib,
[22:23] <bonk_> how do I erase the symlink?
[22:23] <jrib> bonk_: rm
[22:23] <Drk_Guy> nickrud, lol, still, it's a great way to improve your linux skills
[22:23] <SebNaitsabes> Dorothy:  I just joined here,  so I didn't see you ask the question
[22:23] <__jaschon__> unlink
[22:24] <jrib> Dorothy: best to just wait 10 minutes and repeat it then
[22:24] <Dorothy> alright...
[22:24] <nickrud> Dorothy, it got missed, you should ask regularly
[22:24] <erUSUL> bonk_: the same as any other file
[22:24] <Dorothy> My CDROM isn't working
[22:24] <bonk_> ok so I rm both /usr/bin/rar & /usr/bin/unrar
[22:24] <kenny> hey guys
[22:24] <SebNaitsabes> Dorothy: what CD ROm is it?
[22:24] <jrib> bonk_: no, only unrar which you created
[22:24] <Dorothy> I can boot the laptop off the CDROM but once I boot to Xubuntu, nothing
[22:24] <blue112> erUSUL: Ok, that's working for umask. Now +s...
[22:24] <bonk_> gotcha
[22:24] <Dorothy> this is the same cdrom I loaded the system with the one on the laptop
[22:25] <Dorothy> thing is...
[22:25] <jrib> Dorothy: ask on one line
[22:25] <Dorothy> it's one of these laptops that the CDROM and Floppy are on a seperate dockingstation
[22:25] <SebNaitsabes> dockingstation wow that sounds like an old lap to me
[22:26] <jrib> Dorothy: make sure it's not loose.  It's one of those that you can eject the drive right?  Someone was here the other day because of that
[22:26] <Dorothy> jrib, like I said I can boot the laptop off the CDROM
[22:26] <Dorothy> ..just tried
[22:26] <blue112> erUSUL, nickrud, thank's a lot, everything is working !
[22:27] <erUSUL> blue112: no problem... we learned too by helping you XD
[22:27] <Joeseph> Is there any way I can get a fairly up to date dictionary and lookup the defenitions through the kernel?
[22:27] <blue112> Great :)
[22:27] <__jaschon__> i get a "OAFIID:Glipper" error when i start gnome... is this a Glipper problem or a Gnome problem
[22:27] <kenny> what were you helping with?
[22:27] <Zambezi> Anyone with libtiff-tools installed? I really need the configfile for tiff2pdf (and no, I'm not running Ubuntu atm).
[22:27] <erUSUL> Joeseph: what definitions?
[22:28] <Joeseph> erUSUL: Of the english language.  I've found one, but all the defenitions are from 1913.
[22:28] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Has anyone had any experience with WICD? Is it really any good?
[22:29] <zendo> Hello. Can someone please tell me how can I set up and use my genius web camera?
[22:29] <erUSUL> Joeseph: oops some how your mention of "the kernel" got me confused XD
[22:29] <erUSUL> !webcam | zendo
[22:29] <favro> http://img204.imageshack.us/my.php?image=dategr1.jpg - how do I go about fixing a display like that? hehe
[22:30] <adam_> my amsn don' t want to conncect? sombody has anny idea?
[22:30] <SebNaitsabes> favro: wow nice picture.  what did you do to virtualbox?
[22:30] <FreshUbuntuNoob> __jaschon__, Yes, I know that was a known issue with me as well... Apparently, Glipper expects one of the other programs to be started by the time it is started but infact errors out
[22:31] <favro> SebNaitsabes: it booted fine first time but I changed the resolution and every boot looks like that...
[22:31] <__jaschon__> Glipper ran fine when i was using Mint
[22:31] <d_dyer> hey i have a problem,when i try to update i get this "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." Is There a way i can correct this via Terminal?
[22:31] <SebNaitsabes> favro: which version of virtualbox?
[22:31] <jrib> d_dyer: run: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[22:31] <d_dyer> ok thanks
[22:31] <favro> SebNaitsabes: it seems to be a xubuntu issue not vb
[22:31] <erUSUL> d_dyer: you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." <<<< fairly obvious no?
[22:31] <favro> SebNaitsabes: 2
[22:31] <SebNaitsabes> favro: yes I was also wondering what distro you were on
[22:31] <FreshUbuntuNoob> __jaschon__, Well, it has always given me the error on startup when gnome asks whether to remove or keep this panel applet. The trick I used was to make Glipper sleep for about 8 seconds before loading
[22:32] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  since this is the Ubuntu channel and by the sounds of it you got an xubuntu channel  try #xubuntu for help with that
[22:32] <favro> SebNaitsabes: xubuntu is the guest - with the issue
[22:32] <Joeseph> Why is there no attempt to upgrade from the 1913 defentions from the webster dictionary?
[22:32] <SebNaitsabes> favro: what's the host?
[22:32] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  also you can try #vbox
[22:32] <favro> SebNaitsabes: deader than a really dead thing there
[22:32] <__jaschon__> FreshUbuntuNoob, how do you make Glipper sleep for 8 sec?
[22:32] <d_dyer> Thanks Guys :)
[22:32] <favro> SebNaitsabes: ubuntu minimal
[22:32] <FreshUbuntuNoob> __jaschon__, Hold on, let me find the relevant comment on launchpad
[22:33] <SebNaitsabes> favro: try #vbox since it's not really an Ubuntu issue it seems
[22:33] <favro> SebNaitsabes: vbox won't help - xubuntu freaked at the resolution change
[22:33] <SebNaitsabes> favro: what's the host OS?
[22:33] <FreshUbuntuNoob> __jaschon__, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glipper/+bug/213494 <= you can read up on it here... and the solution is to manually add a few lines of code in glipper... pretty easy and straightforward
[22:34] <favro> SebNaitsabes: an ubuntu minimal install
[22:34] <SebNaitsabes> favro: how much RAM does your computer have?
[22:34] <d_dyer> i like ubuntu alot better than XP,i just got it this morning
[22:34] <favro> SebNaitsabes: 1g
[22:34] <SebNaitsabes> favro: why are you using a low RAM???? I think your host is.  and a low RAM guest?
[22:34] <favro> SebNaitsabes: I can run the other tw0 guests I've made with np
[22:34] <danielm_mc_> anyone here ever have any luck with dual screens on an x61 in a ultrabase?
[22:35] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  well  you really want Xubuntu as a guest VM?
[22:35] <edju> Trying to run screenlets under KDE.  It errors out -- doesn't recognize the file format of '/usr/share/icons/screenlets.svg'.  That's a soft link to an existing file.  Any hints how to get this thing going?
[22:35] <favro> SebNaitsabes: wouldn't have made it if I didn't...
[22:35] <pen_> anyone here know how to get the panel a curve edge?
[22:35] <pen_> gnome-panel
[22:35] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  you can delete that VM.  properly from  the hidden .vbox folder in home
[22:36] <SebNaitsabes> favro: if you delete on virtualbox it only deletes  the entry for it
[22:36] <SebNaitsabes> favro: how did you install it? from a CD or the ISO?
[22:36] <ssaboum> hi everyone,
[22:36] <lenea> can anyone please tell me a program with which i can view .mdf type images?
[22:37] <SebNaitsabes> favro: and which virtual box version is it.  is it one you got from the Ubuntu repo.  or is it one you got from virtualbox them selves?
[22:37] <favro> SebNaitsabes: from the cd and fixing it should prove interesting
[22:37] <Joeseph> Has anyone used ding?  I'm trying to figure out how I can get the defenition of a word to appear on the kernel with a command.
[22:37] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  which virtual box are you using?
[22:37] <favro> SebNaitsabes: using dapper so the only option was to get it from vb
[22:37] <Spherous> Hey, does anyone know how to mount an iso file to install something that takes 3 discs? If I mount it with gmount I can't unmount and switch to the second disc when I'm prompted to~
[22:38] <favro> SebNaitsabes: the latest
[22:38] <SebNaitsabes> favro: ok so  not the OSE.  the PUEL the one with USB support?
[22:38] <favro> SebNaitsabes: yes
[22:38] <jrib> SebNaitsabes: do you think mounting all 3 would work?
[22:38] <KRF> Spherous, with mount and some loop option, try to google that
[22:38] <cgrapski> Hello. Can anyone help with getting my wireless working in Ubuntu.  Wireless Connections doesn't show up.
[22:38] <SebNaitsabes> jrib:  mouting all 3 of what?
[22:38] <SebNaitsabes> !wireless
[22:38] <Spherous> KRF: sudo mount -o loop?
[22:38] <__jaschon__> FreshUbuntuNoob, thanks for the help..
[22:38] <Joeseph> dict word works. All the definitions are from the 1913 webster dictionary... why is this?
[22:38] <jrib> SebNaitsabes: bah, ignore me, wrong nick
[22:38] <KRF> Spherous, something like that i guess. i'm not sure, though
[22:39] <FreshUbuntuNoob> __jaschon__, No problem
[22:39] <SebNaitsabes> favro: ok delete that VM properly  from  .vbox  hidden folder in home
[22:39] <favro> SebNaitsabes: nope - I'm going to fix xubuntu
[22:39] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Joeseph, I believe they have to do with copyrights. Essentially, copyrights are not valid anymore after 100 yeas (I think so)
[22:39] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  then re install it, if still problems,  I have another idea :)
[22:39] <cgrapski> I've tried all the documentation and forums and still cannot find the solution.  For example going through the doc it says look for an .inf file - and I don't seem to have one.
[22:40] <Spherous> KRF: I already tried that too, I tried burning them to a disc and doing that, but I'm getting Error: -1603 fatal error occurred during installation
[22:40] <SebNaitsabes> favro: acstaully  leave your Xubuntu the one that isan't working properly and try my other idea now :)
[22:40] <Joeseph> 2008 - 1913 is less than 100 years. Maybe they released the copyright?  Surely there's another open source dictionary out there....
[22:40] <favro> SebNaitsabes: all I did was run displayconfig-gtk and select my monitor and its' native resolution
[22:41] <adam_> why my amsn do not want to connect anyway, anyone no
[22:41] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  did you know that you can run  VMware  virtual disk in virtualbox.  and you can actsaully download loads of already made one for loads of operating systems and so on.  I am pretty sure there is an already made for Xubuntu
[22:41] <jrib> adam_: pastebin 'apt-cache policy amsn'
[22:41] <SebNaitsabes> favro: and you don't have to mess around with a  vmware vmx file  when doing it in  Virtualbox
[22:41] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Joeseph, From wikipedia: The dictionary's 1913 edition of the 1900 International, renamed Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary, has in modern times been used in various free online resources, as its copyright lapsed and it became public domain.
[22:41] <SebNaitsabes> favro: now it will be interesting to see if one of those works for Xubuntu in your virtualbox or not
[22:42] <favro> SebNaitsabes: defeats the purpose I got vb for...
[22:42] <Joeseph> FreshUbuntuNoob: Thanks.  I shoulda known to wiki.
[22:42] <carrera> would installing libcurl and libcurl-dev solve this  configure: error: Please reinstall the libcurl distribution -
[22:42] <carrera>     easy.h should be in <curl-dir>/include/curl/
[22:42] <favro> SebNaitsabes: you seem to be missing the issue
[22:42] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Joeseph, Wiki knows all your deepest darkest secrets :p
[22:42] <attickid> I cant see my ntfs partitions,Ive been using linux for more than one year adn I could saw them before. I got both windows and linux, when Im on windows I can see them...also I cant mount usb devices..any help please?
[22:42] <SebNaitsabes> favro:   you may find it's  an  Xubuntu  issue  with your set up.
[22:42] <jrib> carrera: what are you compiling?
[22:42] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  what did you get it for?
[22:42] <carrera> jrib, php
[22:43] <Joeseph> FreshUbuntuNoob: yup.  It and google know the ultimate answer too.
[22:43] <carrera> jrib, I've already added libxml2-dev
[22:43] <favro> SebNaitsabes: I changed a setting - and I want to change it back is essentially where I'm at
[22:43] <jrib> carrera: php is in the repositories, why aren't you using the packages from there?
[22:43] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  which setting?
 SebNaitsabes: all I did was run displayconfig-gtk and select my monitor and its' native resolution
[22:43] <carrera> jrib, for one I like installing everything under /usr/local
[22:44] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  you can  change loads of Virtualbox settings in the program yes
[22:44] <favro> SebNaitsabes: thnx - it is not vb issue
[22:44] <SebNaitsabes> favro:  you can also re add your  virtualdisk for Xubuntu  as if you had only just done it
[22:44] <attickid> I cant see my ntfs partitions,Ive been using linux for more than one year adn I could saw them before. I got both windows and linux, when Im on windows I can see them...also I cant mount usb devices..any help please?
[22:44] <SebNaitsabes> !ntfs
[22:45] <knoppix> Is there a means of finding out exactly what package I've installed in the past?
[22:45] <SebNaitsabes> !package
[22:45] <MarBert> Synaptic?
[22:45] <knoppix> lol
[22:45] <knoppix> Um
[22:45] <knoppix> Hmm...
[22:45] <knoppix> Point
[22:45] <jrib> carrera: erm, why not use LFS then...  I think that's a terrible reason.  You don't get automatic security updates for something like php this way.  Anyway, 'sudo apt-get build-dep PACKAGE' will get you the build dependencies for PACKAGE if you choose to ignore my warnings
[22:46] <knoppix> I'm just thinking of having a list of everything transferred to a new partition.
[22:46] <knoppix> So not just displayed in a GUI...
[22:46] <MarBert> oh yes Knoppis give me a moment
[22:46] <knoppix> Where is the list of installed packages kept?
[22:46] <MarBert> i'll give you the command
[22:46] <carrera> thanks jrib
[22:46] <ozzloy> i just installed soap4r and wsdl2ruby isn't available.  how do i get it?
[22:47] <MarBert> sudo dpkg --get-selections > installed-software.log
[22:48] <MarBert> You'll get in home a file named installed-software.log
[22:48] <favro> !clone | knoppix
[22:48] <olmari> magnetron: Did got my barcode scanner to behave keyboard-like
[22:49] <olmari> magnetron: wasn't it you with whom I did talked about that the other night?
[22:49] <magnetron> olmari, it was. how did you do it?
[22:50] <olmari> magnetron: took couple of beers and hacked the other barcode scanners perl code
[22:50] <magnetron> good idea olmari. you had a programmer in you after all
[22:50] <MarBert> hey, I need to make audio + video calls over MSN
[22:51] <olmari> magnetron: essentially I needed to take out all the checks as original scanner sends some prefixes and whatnot, mine pushes only the end result in ascii
[22:51] <MarBert> what program can I install?
[22:52] <olmari> magnetron: well.. couldn't do that from scratch... still not knowing half of the program code :D
[22:53] <tabakhase> What can I do against lags caused by 100% "I/O Wait"?
[22:55] <Healer> Hi everyone
[22:55] <SebNaitsabes> hi
[22:56] <MarBert> what program to make audio + video calls over MSN??
[22:56] <Healer> i have a problem with unzipping rar files
[22:56] <SebNaitsabes> MarBerty:  Mercury Messenger?
[22:56] <Healer> tried installing 3 programs but all say the same: Unkown file
[22:56] <Healer> anyone know what the problem is?
[22:56] <zacha> I can't hibernate. I installed uswsusp (said it couldn't find a valid swap) so I made/mounted a swap. I don't know what to try now
[22:56] <SebNaitsabes> MarBert:  Mercury Messenger or I guess Windows Live Messenger under Wine?
[22:56] <Polarina> Healer: RAR has a license on it and people don't want to spend a fortune on purchasing a license to implement support for RAR.
[22:56] <MarBert> I went on the home page It doesnt take audio calls
[22:57] <frodo> apt-get install unrar
[22:57] <frodo> :)
[22:57] <erUSUL> !rar | Healer
[22:57] <SebNaitsabes> Healer: how did you try to install them?
[22:57] <Loganhoup> so how are you today ubottu?
[22:57] <Polarina> Healer: I strongly discourage you to AVOID RAR at all cost, there are better compressing archives out there than RAR and are free.
[22:58] <SebNaitsabes> !bot |  Loganhoup
[22:58] <attickid> when I try to mount a partition it says "fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy"..
[22:58] <Loganhoup> well it took you long enough to respond
[22:58] <SebNaitsabes> lol
[22:58] <Healer> Polarina: I have never used rar, I just cannot unpack *.rar files
[22:58] <SebNaitsabes> he cannot respond to you
[22:59] <Loganhoup> hey don't laugh bots are people too
[22:59] <SebNaitsabes> he is a bot
[22:59] <SebNaitsabes> I triggered him to respond at you
[22:59] <frodo> healer you have to install unrar-free
[22:59] <Loganhoup> I've always known that
[22:59] <Healer> SebNaitsabes: Thanx for the help
[22:59] <frodo> it's on ufficial repositories
[22:59] <Polarina> Healer: Just flame the people that use RAR.
[22:59] <SebNaitsabes> if you want to play with the bot
[22:59] <Loganhoup> you bot racist
[22:59] <attickid> can Anyone help me?
[22:59] <Healer> Polarina: Haha, i will
[22:59] <SebNaitsabes> you can join another channel and do fun things with it
[22:59] <philsf> I used to have a lock icon in the notification area indicating my ssh keyphrase is cached  by the seahorse agent (I guess in feisty I still had it), and I never seen it in a long time (ever since the upgrade to gutsy, also missing in hardy). Anyone know how to re-enable it?
[22:59] <Loganhoup> what channel? that I didn't know
[23:00] <SebNaitsabes> #club-ubuntu
[23:00] <bobertdos> attickid: with what?
[23:00] <Healer> frodo: thank you!
[23:00] <Polarina> Healer: That's the spirit. ;)
[23:00] <Healer> erUSUL: Thank u!
[23:00] <attickid> bobertdos: when I try to mount a partition, the console says "fuse: mount failed: Device or resource busy"

[23:00] <section3> How can i do a force copy to overwrite files
[23:00] <section3> cp -f doesn't work
[23:01] <jrib> section3: that's default behavior
[23:01] <section3> jrib, how can I have it overwrite files
[23:01] <jrib> section3: that's default behavior
[23:01] <bobertdos> attickid: What kind of partition?
[23:02] <attickid> bobertdos: ntfs, but it worked before...
[23:02] <bobertdos> attickid: The last time you exited Windows, did you do so cleanly?
[23:03] <pen_> hey
[23:03] <attickid> bobertdos: nope
[23:03] <c01100011> I am looking for a minimal panel (pypanel,bmpanel etc..) that works with compiz's multiple desktops.
[23:04] <bobertdos> attickid: Then that's probably the issue. Go into Windows and exit it properly.
[23:04] <orgy`> hi, ubuntu sort of locks up when i try to logout. erything keeps going, like mp3 players and such, but i have no control over the desktop. only thing that helps is ctrl+alt+backspace.
[23:04] <c01100011> every panel that i've tried treats compiz's multiple desktops all as one
[23:04] <attickid> bobertdos: ok ,thanks
[23:05] <reportingsjr> Hi, I just got a new HD and I was wondering how I mount it so I can use it?
[23:05] <pen> anyone here know gtk+
[23:05] <pen> ?
[23:05] <jrib> reportingsjr: have you formatted and partitioned it first?
[23:05] <pen> is there a gui for developer so I can know where the button is in the object hierarchy
[23:05] <reportingsjr> jrib, no, I just installed it. Never really done this before =\
[23:06] <jrib> reportingsjr: you can use gparted to do that
[23:06] <c01100011> pen, I never manage to get development help in the Ubuntu channel
[23:06] <bobertdos> !info glade | pen
[23:06] <reportingsjr> c01100011, ubuntu isn't really the developers platform. :p
[23:06] <reportingsjr> c01100011, too much of a pain to deal with packages and such.
[23:07] <pen> so it's just glade?
[23:07] <c01100011> <-- i'll be darned, way to prove me wrong bobertdos
[23:07] <pen> I'm just trying to develope my own them that's all
[23:07] <pen> reportingsjr, well, I like ubuntu so I tried
[23:08] <bobertdos> pen: Ah, well theme development might be a little different, but glade is the builder intended for GTK GUI app development in the general sense.
[23:08] <reportingsjr> pen, oh, it's not bad by any means, just gentoo would probably be better to develop on.
[23:08] <lee_> Does anyone know where I can get a copy of libdvdcss2 in Ubuntu 8.04/64bit?
[23:08] <jrib> pen: art.gnome.org has a tutorial
[23:08] <jrib> !dvd > lee_
[23:08] <bobertdos> !medibuntu | lee_
[23:08] <pen> jrib, but I want the specific button for theme to apply on
[23:08] <pen> jrib, but I don't know where it is in the hierarchy
[23:08] <jrib> pen: checked gtk docs?
[23:09] <lee_> thanks
[23:09] <pen> jrib, which doc?
[23:09] <reportingsjr> jrib, so, what do I need to do after formatted and partitioned with gparted?
[23:09] <pen> jrib, I was in library.gnome.org
[23:10] <jrib> pen: k
[23:10] <attickid> bobertdos: I reboot Ican access my ntfs from windows. but i still have the problem,I cant mount them in linux
[23:10] <jrib> !fstab | reportingsjr
[23:10] <pen> jrib, have you ever done theming before?
[23:10] <jrib> pen: no
[23:10] <pen> jrib, i want to know what button is it for the time weather on the panel
[23:11] <pen> jrib, I want to change that
[23:11] <bobertdos> attickid: It's possible they could still be getting mounted, but not appearing on the desktop.
[23:11] <attickid> I tried to do it from console and I look on the media folder also
[23:11] <pen> do anyone here know what the button is called on the panel for the gnome-panel widgets?
[23:11] <pen> not the window selector
[23:11] <attickid> bobertdos: I tried to do it from console and I looked on the media folder also
[23:12] <djdano> Hey all, anyone know a good light weight Media manager I can use to organize my music, and sync it with my MP3 player, I'm using xubuntu
[23:12] <pzn> how can I make network-admin forget everything I configured? I intend to erase some file, reboot and see its behaviour like it is a new ubuntu
[23:13] <pen> do anyone here know what the button is called on the panel for the gnome-panel widgets?
[23:13] <philsf> I used to have a lock icon in the notification area indicating my ssh keyphrase is cached  by the seahorse agent (I guess in feisty I still had it), and I never seen it ever since the upgrade to gutsy, also missing in hardy (so it's a regression). Anyone know how to re-enable it?
[23:15] <carandraug> pen: you're talking about the notification area?
[23:16] <pen> carandraug, kinda, but no. Widgets in general, like the weather time
[23:16] <Joeseph> Occasionally, when moving windows with Compiz turned on, the windows will simply disappear.  Has anyone else had this problem?
[23:16] <pen> carandraug, do you understand what I mean?
[23:17] <carandraug> pen: not really. I don't any of those fancy stuff :p
[23:17] <djdano> Hey all, what is the preferred media player, audacious, banshee, rhythembox, or amarok?
[23:17] <extor> has anyone here put xosd based messages on their screen, how does it work?
[23:17] <carandraug> pen: *don't use any
[23:17] <pen> carandraug, do you know anything about gtkrc?
[23:17] <dan1234562k8> rythmbox ftw
[23:18] <microlins> hi
[23:18] <carandraug> carandraug: no. Just that the place where icons appear (like pidgin, xchat, music, etc..) is called notification area. And many people removef it and then don't know what they have to add back to the panel to get it back
[23:18] <mgeorge> g'day folks :)
[23:18] <jrib> extor: the man page usually has examples.  I remember that gnome-osd looked better
[23:19] <mgeorge> damn there is a shitload of people in here >.<
[23:19] <djdano> dan, i have rhythmbox, and I'm unable to sync it with my thumb drive based mp3 player, do you know if this is possiable
[23:19] <dan1234562k8> i recently installed libflashsupport to solve problems with sound output on youtube but now firefox randomly closes and it is quite annoying anyone got any ideas?
[23:20] <dan1234562k8> no sorry :S
[23:20] <pen> do anyone here know what the button is called on the panel for the gnome-panel widgets? not window selector...
[23:20] <djdano> dan, flash10?
[23:20] <dan1234562k8> no ithink its 9
[23:21] <dan1234562k8> yer its 9
[23:21] <djdano> have you tried removing or renaming your .mozilla folder? and removeing all flash stuff like gnash and only having flash-plugin-nonfree v9 installed?
[23:21] <netsurf3> is it possible to update gnokii and gnome-phone-manager so that interactions with sony ericsson k610i is supported? as in fedora 9 this works fine
[23:21] <reportingsjr> jrib, still there?
[23:21] <jrib> reportingsjr: yep
[23:21] <extor> jrib the man pages seem kinda criptic. you know of any web pages with more on em?
[23:21] <reportingsjr> jrib, should I just sudo gparted then format and partition my new drive?
[23:21] <c01100011> pen, the area where nm-applet shows up ?
[23:22] <jrib> extor: are you reading gnome-osd-client's manpage?  You just do 'gnome-osd-client MESSAGE'
[23:22] <pen> c01100011, you mean the menu? no, i mean the button like thing around widget
[23:22] <reportingsjr> jrib, ?
[23:22] <jrib> reportingsjr: gksudo gparted.  Make sure it's your new drive, not one with your data on it
[23:22] <ScheissDrogen> !ot > ScheissDrogen
[23:22] <reportingsjr> jrib, what do you mean?
[23:23] <reportingsjr> jrib, when it's started up, make sure it's my new drive? (how do I do that? :p)
[23:23] <extor> jrib...lemme try gnome-osd-client
[23:23] <dan1234562k8> im confused now :S
[23:23] <jrib> reportingsjr: well you have your current hard drive with ubuntu on it, right?  You don't want to use that one.  Type 'mount' and you'll see what your current drive is called
[23:23] <extor> gnome-osd - OSD message framework for GNOME  <--- This package, right?
[23:23] <djdano> dan, mv ~/.mozilla ~/.mozilla.bak
[23:24] <djdano> sudo synaptic
[23:24] <reportingsjr> jrib, ah, I see. So do I have to switch drives or something?
[23:24] <djdano> remove all flash
[23:24] <jrib> reportingsjr: at the top right of the gui you can pick the device
[23:24] <bobertdos> dan1234562k8: In firefox, type about:plugins. Check to see if you have anything like gnash or other flash-ish looking things installed.
[23:24] <djdano> install flash-plugin-nonfree version 9
[23:24] <reportingsjr> jrib, ah, gotcha. Thanks!
[23:24] <reportingsjr> jrib, 750gb hd, it might take a while! :p
[23:25] <alex-weej> bn
[23:25] <ravi> hi
[23:25] <alex-weej> djdano: flashplugin-nonfree
[23:25] <chrissss> does anyone use ajaxterm?
[23:26] <Goosemoose> has the error with connecting to .local domains not been fixed yet for likewise?
[23:27] <philsf> I used to have a lock icon in the notification area indicating my ssh keyphrase is cached  by the seahorse agent (I guess in feisty I still had it), and I never seen it ever since the upgrade to gutsy, also missing in hardy (so it's a regression). Anyone know how to re-enable it?
[23:27] <extor> jrib, so gnome-osd-client needs xml formatted input parameters?
[23:27] <ScheissDrogen> what happened to ubuntu-offtopic ? no ones in there but a norway bot ?
[23:27] <jrib> extor: works fine if I just use regular text
[23:28] <jrib> extor: that's only with -f it seems
[23:29] <reportingsjr> jrib, what type of disklabel should I choose? msdos? (default)
[23:29] <jrib> reportingsjr: default
[23:29] <reportingsjr> sweet! :)
[23:29] <Hazarath> Cannot get setup to get past like, 13%, tried disabling pretty much every option, using the lastest distro.
[23:29] <ScheissDrogen> !hi|ravi
[23:29] <reportingsjr> wtf, it only shows 698.64GiB/750 >:(
[23:30] <h4x0r> quit
[23:31] <c01100011> Hazarath, installing off a cd or usb ?
[23:31] <Hazarath> I should prolly add that I ment the little loading screen with the progress bar frezzes during setup.
[23:31] <Hazarath> c01100011, both.
[23:32] <reportingsjr> Hazarath, which loading screen with progress bar?
[23:32] <c01100011> Hazarath,  had a similar issue installing yesterady
[23:32] <raw> hello
[23:32] <reportingsjr> the one during partitions?
[23:32] <extor> jrib, I got my first printout. Beautiful. Now to finetune it
[23:32] <jrib> reportingsjr: http://news.cnet.com/8301-10784_3-9829266-7.html
[23:32] <reportingsjr> partitioning*
[23:32] <raw> i can install any theme i want on ubuntu ? or it must be gnome theme ?
[23:32] <reportingsjr> jrib, nice. :D
[23:32] <c01100011> is it a consistent percentage or change every time
[23:32] <Hazarath> reportingsjr, the one while setup loads. The pretty orge one.
[23:32] <Hazarath> c01100011, none.
[23:33] <extor>  -f --full
[23:33] <extor>               Enable  "full" message specification syntax, which is XML based. <--- This sort of implies some missing functionality though, for pure text based stuff
[23:33] <Hazarath> c01100011, it always locks the same place.
[23:33] <raw> i can install any theme i want on ubuntu ? or it must be gnome theme ?
[23:33] <reportingsjr> Hazarath, ah, ok
[23:33] <nubuntu> ric you see me
[23:33] <Unipz> where do I report bugs?
[23:33] <Hazarath> So, ideas on fixin'?
[23:33] <jrib> !bugs | Unipz
[23:34] <Unipz> There is a pretty serious bug in the installer
[23:34] <c01100011> Mine locked up in a different place each time. But the 2 times (don't ask why i needed to reinstall) I got it to work, i was playing around in another terminal sesssion while it loaded
[23:34] <balrog> Unipz: ?
[23:34] <c01100011> i don't know if that was dumb luck , or it helped
[23:34] <balrog> should i install virtualbox from the repos or from the .deb on the website?
[23:34] <maxagaz> what cli command to listen a directory of mp3 ?
[23:35] <Unipz> If you install ubuntu onto hd(1,0) the installer sets up the grub.conf (or whatever loader ubuntu uses im not sure) to load from hd(0,0) regardless of where you installed ubuntu to
[23:35] <c01100011> and when it did freeze, it was because of a problem accessing the squishfs
[23:35] <Unipz> had to manually modify the launcher
[23:35] <ak-49> What is the difference between the ubuntu dvd versus the iso (besides the obvious difference in size)
[23:35] <Hazarath> reportingsjr, c01100011 what do I do? Try again diffrently? Kinda usin' dual boot at the moment.
[23:35] <habernet> i have a desktop pc and im trying to install ubuntu on it...the cd rom drive will read/install from windows xp cd but not ubuntu cd...the ubuntu live usb drive i created wont boot on it because it "cannot find linux kernel" does anyone have suggestions on how to install ubuntu on it? it is not hooked up to internet
[23:35] <lgc> Hi. What's inside the Ubuntu-in-Windows install option on the 8.04 disk? What kind of VM?
[23:36] <reportingsjr> Hazarath, when I installed mine always froze up on the partition part, try a few more times, if that fails get a new disk and try that, if THAT fails ask in here again. :p
[23:36] <Jack_Sparrow> ak-49 the dvd includes the "Main" repo
[23:36] <Hazarath> reportingsjr, tried for 6 hours last night. Heh.
[23:37] <reportingsjr> Hazarath, ouch!
[23:37] <ak-49> thanks, jack_sparrow.
[23:37] <c01100011> Hazarath,  switch to terminal 1 when it freezes, and see if it having trouble reading squishfs
[23:37] <Hazarath> reportingsjr, Fell asleep once during the loading, it still didn't proceed.
[23:37] <nubuntu> anyone got a minute to help me troubleshoot this sound problem (no sound) on a new hardy install?  heres a paste of terminal output: http://pastebin.com/m7a44351a
[23:37] <Unipz> Also have the issues with nvidia and ati drivers for the newest version of ubuntu been resolved?
[23:37] <Hazarath> c01100011, how do I do this?
[23:37] <c01100011> cntrl alt f1
[23:37] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[23:37] <Jack_Sparrow> c01100011 To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[23:38] <Hazarath> c01100011, I'll try that, get an idea of what the error is.
[23:39] <Jack_Sparrow> nubuntu /join #alsa
[23:39] <lgc> I need to hear some experiences with vitualizing Windows in Ubuntu.
[23:39] <brunic> where is the gtk files on ubuntu linux?
[23:39] <Goosemoose> lgc, tried it and gave up. could never find the nic
[23:39] <tamer> why when i continoue pressing backspace it effects the screen light
[23:39] <Jack_Sparrow> lgc This is the wrong room for discussion.. try #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:39] <lgc> Goosemoose, what VM did you try?
[23:40] <c01100011> lgc, Virtualbox xp good experience
[23:40] <lgc> c01100011, oh, I like That!
[23:40] <nubuntu> ok jack will try alsa
[23:40] <c01100011> for the added bonus, i set it fullscreen on a compiz cube face
[23:41] <c01100011> I am amble to spin the cube and land in windows
[23:41] <Jack_Sparrow> nubuntu they are best with sound issues
[23:41] <reportingsjr> jrib, ok, now that I've got it formatted and partitioned, just do mnt /dev/sda /home/jon/media_hd ?
[23:41] <reportingsjr> (or something close to that, whatever works?)
[23:41] <c01100011> (getting out requires a tricky key combo)
[23:41] <jrib> reportingsjr: did you create /home/jon/media_hd already?
[23:41] <reportingsjr> jrib, no, any special permissions or anything that it needs?
[23:41] <jrib> reportingsjr: nope
[23:41]  * extor wonders if a KDE-osd exists as well and if it is sexier than gnome-osd
[23:41] <lgc> c01100011, did you manage to copy an old windows partition or you did a fresh install in the VM?
[23:42] <reportingsjr> jrib, ok, that's been created. Now run that cmd?
[23:42] <c01100011> lgc, fresh install, kept it minimalistic, just the applications that i would need to reboot to use
[23:42] <pen> do anyone here know what the button is called on the panel for the gnome-panel widgets? not window selector...
[23:42] <reportingsjr> pen, system tray?
[23:42] <jrib> reportingsjr: do you want it to be automatically mounted when you boot?
[23:42] <reportingsjr> jrib, yep
[23:43] <pen> reportingsjr, system tray doesn't make the individual icon a button
[23:43] <reportingsjr> pen, what do you mean?
[23:43] <lgc> c01100011, did you get sound and USB access?
[23:43] <pen> reportingsjr, do you still have your time and weather up on gnome panel?
[23:43] <reportingsjr> pen, yes..
[23:43] <oblivion62> hi, anyone seen any issues with Firefox spontaneously crashing in Hardy? Happens to me every time on the login page for my online bank...

[23:44] <reportingsjr> jrib, http://pastebin.ca/1197602
[23:44] <Jack_Sparrow> oblivion62 probably just a flash issue.. can you post the url that crashes
[23:44] <jrib> oblivion62: flash on the page?

[23:48] <Chunky_Ks> or is there a better way?
[23:48] <jrib> reportingsjr: how about: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/
[23:48] <Hazarath> reportingsjr, c01100011, did you get that?
[23:48] <c01100011> yeah, or maybe i should just keep the aspire one in the bag untill i get out of the cab
[23:48] <ScheissDrogen> jrib..: thx, i must have misstyped
[23:48] <jrib> ScheissDrogen: no problemo

[23:49] <reportingsjr> jrib, http://pastebin.ca/1197604
[23:49] <goldmetal> where are the icons pictures? it's not there anymore when i try to change the icon pic.  in gnome menu bar
[23:50] <jrib> reportingsjr: oh.  There's probably a way to do this without rebooting, but I don't know it.  Let's ask the channel, but you might want to reboot if no one knows
[23:50] <Hazarath> c01100011, Alright, how about you, reportingsjr?
[23:50] <Isaac_of_Trek> this is ubuntu help chan, yes?
[23:50] <bobertdos> Isaac_of_Trek: Yes, sir!
[23:50] <jrib> How do I get /dev/disk/by-uuid/ to know about a newly formatted hard drive?
[23:51] <jrib> (without rebooting)
[23:51] <javierg> Is there a terminal program that I can setup so when I open it, it automatically has more than one tab open with specific names on them?
[23:51] <Jack_Sparrow> jrib will mount -a do it?
[23:51] <jrib> Jack_Sparrow: nope, that's the command that failed when we tried to mount it :)
[23:52] <chamunks> Has anyone in here used opensuse or suse-enterprise?  I'm loving ubuntu but im just curious why Novell is so highly regarded.
[23:52] <reportingsjr> jrib, so I can just reboot and it will all be said and done?
[23:52] <jrib> chamunks: better suited for #ubuntu-offtopic
[23:52] <javierg> Is there a terminal program that I can setup so when I open it, it automatically has more than one tab open with specific names on them?
[23:52] <jrib> reportingsjr: yes, it should be
[23:52] <reportingsjr> jrib, why didn't you say so!
[23:52] <LordMetroid> Is there a way I can configure the notification area?
[23:52] <jrib> reportingsjr: well I'm curious too
[23:52] <LordMetroid> What to be shown and what not to be shown in it?
[23:52] <Hazarath> During setup, I get the following error and a system halt, alt-cntl-del doesn't even regester. A picture of my screen is here: http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/6452/pict0067ba4.jpg
[23:53] <funkyHat> reportingsjr: we like doing things without rebooting when we can (which is most of the time :))
[23:53] <LordMetroid> Cause I do not want that network icon to be shown, I got another better network monitor
[23:53] <lee_> how do I install "mediaLib" to compile ffmpeg?
[23:53] <Isaac_of_Trek> I cant get my wireless networking to come up. Acer 3680-2633 Driver is on. I have no icon for network mgr
[23:53] <chamunks> Well than on a related note, whats a good way to manage and update a house full of ubuntu computers from one of them.
[23:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !info ffmpeg
[23:54] <cheeky> hey  i just installed ubuntu and its working finally ..now that its running ..i clicked the hardware drivers program and it shows that nvidia accelerate grpphics driver is not enabled and not in use ..
[23:54] <jrib> chamunks: ssh works for me
[23:54] <Jack_Sparrow> lee_ why are you trying to compile something that has already been properly compiled for ubuntu.
[23:54] <cheeky> how doi get the driver for this ?
[23:54] <lee_> Jack_Sparrow: Yes, I know what it is- i'm trying to compile it with different lib support but now its asking for mediaLib
[23:54] <chamunks> jrib, I'm looking for something that might do it all in one or two commands.
[23:54] <lee_> Jack_Sparrow: because I need to use codecs that aren't compiled by default
[23:54] <d_dyer> hey,is a a screen capture program for ubuntu that i can use to stream my screen on ustream?
[23:54] <chamunks> jrib, Or maybe a webgui
[23:55] <javierg> Is there a terminal program that I can setup so when I open it, it automatically has more than one tab open with specific names on them?
[23:55] <jrib> chamunks: yeah, ssh and a small script :)  I think there was some program for this, but I forget the name atm
[23:55] <lee_> Does anyone know where/how I can get "mediaLib" development libraries?
[23:55] <goldmetal> i want to change my firefox icon, where are the icons located on 8.04?
[23:55] <goldmetal> used to be a lots of icon, but it's gone
[23:55] <jrib> javierg: gnome-terminal
[23:56] <bobertdos> Isaac_of_Trek: In the terminal, does your wireless interface show up when you type ifconfig?
