[08:58] <Trashlord> so, I'm trying to get the XMMS module for Perl, so I can retrieve information about currently played tracks. It says I do not have xmms installed, but I do, I have installed xmms from source. I use Ubuntu 8.04, and here is the paste of MCPAN's problems: http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=20293
[08:58] <sfer3> Sorry, I wasn't here when you explained
[08:59] <Guest59408> b4b3 has no sound
[08:59] <b4b3> when play music/film

[09:00] <hcMyth> Hey I just installed sensors-applet it shows a RD1 temperature of 54 degrees C, what is RD1?
[09:01] <Guest59408> heres my problem i install mplayer but when i click the menu item it says "failed to execute child process file:///home/richard/apps/mplayer (no such file or directory" i'm confused what should i do? added to the menu manually, i own the file. i chose /home/richard/apps because i thought that the file couldn't bee seen under root ownership
[09:01] <tita> hola
[09:02] <sfer3> Hmmm....
[09:02] <tita> hi
[09:02] <tita> i need help!
[09:02] <sfer3> !ask | tita
[09:03] <sfer3> Guest59408: Can you navigate to file:///home/richard/apps/mplayer? If so, what is there?
[09:03] <tita> i am new in ubuntu and dony know much about this os
[09:03] <hcMyth> (and I did google for RD1 but have no idea what it is so far)
[09:03] <Trashlord> sfer3: any idea about my problem?
[09:03] <Guest59408> yes the binary file mplayer is whats there
[09:03] <sfer3> hcMyth: It may be some sort of identifier for the sensor? I'm not sure...
[09:03] <BunTai> can anyone teach me how to make my AWN dock like leopard?
[09:04] <sfer3> Trashlord: Sorry, don't know much about those kind of things
[09:04] <tita> i dont have sound
[09:04] <hcMyth> sfer3: hm ok, well cpu temp shows to be zero all the time so perhaps RD1 is in fact the cpu
[09:04] <Trashlord> oh, alright
[09:04] <hcMyth> thanks anyway
[09:04] <sfer3> Guest59408: If you'd like, you can download mplayer from the repositories, can't you? Unless it's some kind of custom build... that may be easier to do.
[09:05] <BunTai> is anyone can help me to setup AWN dock like mac leopard?
[09:05] <Guest59408> i'm on breezy can't upgrade not enough processor
[09:05] <Guest59408> only 128mb memory
[09:05] <Guest59408> but over 150gb hdd
[09:06] <sfer3> BunTai: What are you trying to do? I followed a tutorial on the internet some time ago, it was pretty helpful.
[09:06] <Guest59408> and another 290gb on 2 other drives
[09:06] <sfer3> Guest: Still, can't you apt-get install mplayer?
[09:06] <Guest59408> i didn't try that
[09:06] <TrustNoOne> im looking for step by step to install freenx
[09:06] <Guest59408> breezy isn't supported anymore
[09:07] <BunTai> sfer3: i want it to be like mac leopard
[09:07] <DjViper> TrustNoOne: nomachine nx ?
[09:07] <sfer3> BunTai: Yeah, I think the tutorial was specific to that. I'll try and dig it up.
[09:07] <BunTai> the folder can be like necklace
[09:07] <os2mac> after running apt-get update; apt-get upgrade I still have one package that got held back... how do I update that one package?
[09:07] <danbh_intrepid> os2mac: dist-upgrade
[09:07] <BunTai> sfer3: where do you get it? can u give it to me?
[09:07] <sfer3> Guest: What does it do when you try an apt-get install mplayer?
[09:07] <TrustNoOne> DjViper i dont know what you are asking
[09:08] <sfer3> BunTai: Yep, just looking for where it was
[09:08] <os2mac> danbh_intrepid: tried that as well and it was still held back.
[09:08] <psypher246> hey all, has anyone else had this problem, when i try browse windows pc using samba i cannot see any shares, ie ipc$ share is just not working. if i specify the specific share name then it's fine. this is not verey usefull
[09:08] <Guest59408> i've open synaptic now
[09:08] <BunTai> sfer3: can you give me the web link?
[09:08] <DjViper> TrustNoOne: http://www.nomachine.com/download-package.php?Prod_Id=6
[09:09] <DjViper> TrustNoOne: dl and install client, node and server in that order, then you should be set :-)
[09:09] <clarence_> How to edit /etc/modprobe.d of the black list
[09:09] <danbh_intrepid> os2mac: well, you can always try dselect-upgrade      But, if you are running -proposed, or  intrepid, you may not want to force the install of the package.  Sometimes it depends on other packages updating themselves
[09:09] <Guest59408> couldn't find package mplayer
[09:10] <sfer3> Hmm, It's in my synaptic... :/
[09:10] <BunTai> ok
[09:10] <sfer3> BunTai: What was it you were using? awn?
[09:11] <os2mac> danbh_intrepid: I am not running -proposed or intrepid I am running Hardy
[09:11] <BunTai> sfer3: yes
[09:11] <sfer3> Check this out:
[09:11] <sfer3> http://www.taimila.com/?q=node/11
[09:11] <sfer3> May not be what you want, though
[09:12] <kevin_> how do you close an unresponsive program (i.e. the equivelant of Window's Ctrl-Alt-Del)?

[09:13] <jim_p_busy> kevin_: killall name_of_hang_program
[09:13] <sfer3> And then there's the "Processes" tab, that's if you want a GUI way to do it
[09:13] <resin> anyone know how to get s-video out to work with fglrx?
[09:13] <kevin_> kk i'll try both thanks
[09:15] <Guest59408> i'll check my sources.list

[09:15] <jim_p_busy> 	Option		"DesktopSetup" 		"single"
[09:16] <jim_p_busy> something like that
[09:16] <jokibroki> hello to everyone :)
[09:16] <xtrememertx> hi
[09:16] <resin> and then how would i enable it?
[09:16] <jim_p_busy> hello jokibroki
[09:16] <jokibroki> i m new to ubuntu, trying to install hellanzb
[09:16] <jim_p_busy> dunno
[09:16] <jokibroki> followed some installation how to on internet
[09:16] <jokibroki> but no luck
[09:16] <resin> :/
[09:16] <jim_p_busy> search ati's options
[09:16] <jokibroki> anyone can assist
[09:17] <resin> i already tried using atitvout
[09:17] <resin> didnt work
[09:17] <A[D]minS> how i can extract file.tgz ?
[09:17] <sfer3> jokibroki: halanzb?
[09:17] <psypher246> hey all, has anyone else had this problem, when i try browse windows pc using samba i cannot see any shares, ie ipc$ share is just not working. if i specify the specific share name then it's fine. this is not very usefull
[09:17] <jokibroki> hellanzb
[09:17] <jim_p_busy> A[D]minS: double klick on it!
[09:17] <jokibroki> its for nzb files
[09:17] <sfer3> A[D]minS: Archive Manager should do that for you, so just double click it > extract
[09:18] <sfer3> Alright
[09:18] <sfer3> What is the problem with it?
[09:18] <jokibroki> http://www.hellanzb.com/trac/
[09:18] <sfer3> jokibroki: Can you just do this to install it? Open Terminal, then type "sudo apt-get install hellanzb"
[09:18] <sfer3> It's in the repos
[09:18] <A[D]minS> sfer3, i have no GUI
[09:19] <sfer3> Aah, okay
[09:19] <sfer3> So then that would be...
[09:19] <jokibroki> ok, did that
[09:19] <jokibroki> and where do i find it now
[09:19] <jokibroki> to open it
[09:19] <sfer3> It should be in one of the menus....
[09:19] <sfer3> Uuhhh...
[09:20] <jokibroki> thats the thing
[09:20] <jokibroki> looked at all application menus
[09:20] <orifice> I've seen some terminals in text mode (i.e. ctr-alt-F1) that have been customized with a background image and different text colors
[09:20] <jokibroki> and no hellanzb
[09:20] <orifice> where can I set those options ?
[09:20] <Guest59408> whats the repository address for the most recent repositories
[09:20] <sfer3> A[D]minS: try this: tar -xvzf filenamehere
[09:20] <LSD|Ninja> Guest59408: you wait until October for Intrepid
[09:20] <Xeppo> wow, hellanzb sounds awesome
[09:21] <Xeppo> I didn't know linux had a decent newsreader for binaries
[09:21] <Guest59408> no i just need the address so i can get mplayer
[09:21] <sauvin> It's got a few, actually.
[09:21] <jokibroki> anyone know anything better for nzb files ? that can automaticly fix files and extract
[09:22] <orifice> with with grabit is way betyter than hellanzb
[09:22] <LSD|Ninja> Guest59408: you get what you're given until the next release. If you want bleeding edge, all the time then Gentoo is over there -->
[09:22] <bakarat> for some reason my system monitor's resources tab doesn't seem to be working correctly
[09:22] <orifice> Err grabit with wine
[09:22] <jokibroki> grabit can be used on ubuntu hardy 8.04
[09:22] <jokibroki> ?
[09:22] <bakarat> it states in processes that vmware is taking up like 1.5G of ram, but in the resources tab it says that it is using 400 meg
[09:22] <Guest59408> okay i do some research
[09:22] <jokibroki> ok
[09:22] <jokibroki> with wine
[09:22] <jokibroki> i ll do it
[09:22] <Guest59408> into proper manual installs
[09:22] <Xeppo> newsleecher is a nuch more robust option
[09:22] <Xeppo> much, rather
[09:23] <karayan> Hello all, how can I view remote x apps in my machine? I am using 8.04. Any pointers?
[09:23] <LSD|Ninja> what's the bet he comes in later after breaking his system something cruel? XD
[09:23] <nlksg> hi, any way to resize partition that i booted?
[09:24] <jim_p_busy> karayan: with some vnc client??
[09:24] <psypher246> hello, please could someone help me with a weird samba problem
[09:24] <Ace_NoOne> anyone familiar with JavaScript Lint, and how to install/build it on Ubuntu?
[09:24] <jim_p_busy> nlksg: depends on how are other partitions made
[09:25] <LSD|Ninja> karayan: Ubuntu supports X forwarding like anything else
[09:25] <nlksg> Jim_p_busy : how to check?
[09:25] <karayan> jim_p_busy, not using vnc, I can do this using X isnt it. I tried, but without success
[09:25] <karayan> LSD|Ninja, do you know any good tutorials for this?
[09:25] <nlksg> I want to resize and move my / and home partition that i booted... my laptop don't have CD drive
[09:25] <LSD|Ninja> karayan: ssh -X ubuntubox from a terminal running under the remote X server and then run your app in the ssh session
[09:25] <LSD|Ninja> karayan: google it, there's plenty around. It's not an uncommon thing
[09:26] <sfer3> nlksg: What does it have?
[09:26] <The_Code> hi, i have a problem i installed ubuntu 8.04.1 in a vmware somehow during installation vmware locked the screen asking for password, is there any?
[09:26] <jim_p_busy> nlksg: at a terminal do a fdisk -l
[09:26] <sfer3> jim_p: Might not be able to do that while you're using the disk
[09:26] <jim_p_busy> karayan: vnc is the only way if you want to run gui apps on a remote pc
[09:27] <jim_p_busy> sfer3: i can do that even with all my partitions mounted
[09:27] <jim_p_busy> it will just list them
[09:27] <karayan> LSD|Ninja, I have tried that, but was not working. Will try once more.
[09:27] <nlksg>  jim_p_busy: fdisk -l only show my 512 MB usb thumb only

[09:27] <Flannel> !paste | jim_p_busy
[09:28] <jim_p_busy> sorry!
[09:28] <jim_p_busy> can i talk now?
[09:28] <sfer3> jim_p: Really? Mine doesn't seem to work like that because when I tried it last time on the main partition it was locked because I was using it and couldn't be unlocked...
[09:28] <sfer3> Yes, you're talking. :D
[09:28] <jim_p_busy> :)
[09:29] <jim_p_busy> nlksg: are you doing fdisk -l with sudo in front?
[09:31] <nlksg> jim_p_busy : http://paste.ubuntu.com/47372/
[09:31] <nlksg> that is the output. :)
[09:31] <locke> man
[09:31] <locke> i've had some crazy stuff to deal with lately
[09:31] <locke> i go to colege and i met this chick first day of school
[09:32] <sfer3> !offtopic | locke
[09:32] <locke> and she's really made life difficult for me, my best friend, and a few other people
[09:32] <locke> yeah i'm not talking about that :P
[09:32] <locke> i was going to talk about the cahnges in the newest ubuntu version
[09:32] <Xeppo> that's a rather intelligent bot.
[09:33] <locke> theres been some real crazy changes
[09:33] <Xeppo> seriously, is someone controlling that bot?
[09:34] <scuser> hi all, does anyone know how to install vsipl on ubuntu 8.04 ?
[09:34] <locke> man the spawn soundtrack is so awesome
[09:35] <locke> no, but whatever it involves, it is much more worth it to install ubuntu than deal with wahtever windows problems that might exist
[09:35] <locke> i don't know what vsipl is though
[09:35] <miccantino> hi, I have a problem with my AMD Turion X2 Ultra... In Ubuntu the CPU is always at 100% and powernowd doesn't work. I think the kernel doesn't recognize my CPU. There is a way to make it to work?
[09:36] <Xeppo> locke: hey now, Windows isn't THAT bad.
[09:36] <locke> yes it is..
[09:36] <locke> i havent been even almost satisfied with a version of windows since 3.1
[09:36] <Xeppo> tried server 2003?
[09:36] <locke> and 3.11 windows for workgroups even had its problems
[09:36] <locke> yeah
[09:37] <locke> i've used every version since windows 2.0
[09:37] <locke> including all the NTs
[09:37] <miccantino> windows is very bad but it works with any hardware without much hussle... this is its power ($$ power)
[09:37] <Xeppo> '03 was one of the most stabe and compatible OSes I've ever used
[09:37] <Xeppo> apart from OSX, that is
[09:37] <locke> nah
[09:37] <locke> windows has problems with hardware that i've never had a problem with in linux
[09:37] <sfer3> Xeppo: No, no-one controls the bot, as such. Anyone here can give it a command, for example:
[09:38] <locke> linux supports all hardware i have ever seen lately
[09:38] <sfer3> !askthebot | Xeppo
[09:38] <miccantino> locke: I have many problems to install linux on my new laptop...
[09:38] <Xeppo> ah, cool
[09:38] <locke> with a simple, next-next-next button install iway easier than any windows or mac install i've ever seen
[09:38] <locke> i've installed it on many laptops with way less problems than any version of windows
[09:38] <miccantino> yes, but only on old hardware
[09:38] <Xeppo> locke: really?
[09:39] <Xeppo> got a RIAD5 driver for my ich7 chipset?
[09:39] <Xeppo> cause last I checked, it wasn't working properly
[09:39] <miccantino> locke is a very lucky guy with linux and the hardware he tries
[09:39] <Xeppo> ah.
[09:40] <locke> in fact, i've installed it on macs with apple hardware that were suppoesed to be falwless because the OS was made by the same company as the hardware, and it took like 45 mins to install OSX correctly and had to install one driver off the net afterwards, but I installe dubuntu on the same hardware with the disc in like 15-17 mins with full hardawre support and didnt have to install any updates and it worked perfectly
[09:40] <Xeppo> I was looking through the hoops you had to jump through to get linux working on the macbok
[09:40] <Xeppo> and decided I'd be better off without the hassle
[09:40] <miccantino> as I said, locke is very lucky
[09:40] <locke> and then i installed the updates which were all automatic, and they were like 200mb of updates to make it work perfectly and fix all security issues, and it took about 20 mins to do all that
[09:40] <sfer3> !offtopic > locke
[09:40] <locke> no, i'm very unlucky
[09:41] <locke> usually most people who i'm not alreayd helping won't even talk to me
[09:41] <Xeppo> locke: OS X wasn't MEANT to be installed on anything other than macs
[09:41] <sfer3> !offtopic
[09:41] <Trashlord> http://www.nomorepasting.com/getpaste.php?pasteid=20293
[09:41] <Xeppo> and with a properly set up installer disk, it takes less time to install OS X than ubuntu on the proper hardware
[09:41] <perfector> are there any additional packages in ubuntu-studio that are not available in standard ubuntu repositories?
[09:42] <sfer3> perfector: No, I don't think so....
[09:42] <locke> but being unlucky it is very surprising to me that some 18 year old chick decided to make me her entire support group and guidance in everything for the rest of this year or whatever
[09:42] <miccantino> hi, there is a way to try the last beta of ubuntu on my laptop? Maybe it will recognize my cpu...
[09:42] <locke> i didnt anticipate anybody using me as any sort of reference or help at all
[09:43] <sfer3> miccantino: Is it available as a live CD?
[09:43] <Orchid`> hello i am using hardy heron and i need to use  VPN client, to connect to a school. can anyone direct me to how to isntall and operate one please?
[09:43] <locke> but instead i have this chick that wants to spend like 12 hours a day every day with me and wants me to do everything with her
[09:43] <perfector> oh Thanks sfer3 i was in search fora package called graveman
[09:43] <miccantino> I don't know

[09:43] <locke> and wants me to let her come over and stay at my place in the middle of the night or the morning whenever she wants
[09:43] <miccantino> where I can download last ubuntu snapshots?
[09:43] <Xeppo> locke, that is seriously offtopic.
[09:44] <locke> but i can't really say i have any problem with having an awesomely hot chick stay with me all sorts of nights whenever she wants
[09:44] <locke> so yeah
[09:44] <locke> thast no problem
[09:44] <blue-frog> miccantino: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/intrepid/alpha-5/intrepid-desktop-i386.iso.torrent

[09:46] <Orchid`> comicinker,  found it haha thank you alot!
[09:46] <comicinker> yes
[09:46] <Orchid`> comicinker,  err okay then how?
[09:46] <Orchid`> comicinker, i found the one under wired conection but if you think that would work where do i find it?

[09:56] <reel_> Hi all, I want to know the serial number of external HDD. I could not use hdparm -I /dev/sdb on it like the internal HDD. It exits with a message    "  HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed: Invalid argument ", any ideas ?
[09:56] <miccantino> this is the link to install ubuntu 8.10 with wubi!!
[09:56] <johnwedd> awesome miccantino
[09:57] <miccantino> I hope this version will recognize my CPU (and my Marvell Yukon ethernet card)
[09:58] <DannyKing> Is there a program to change what the buttons on my wacom graphics pen do?
[09:58] <sfer3> Try keyboard shortcuts?
[09:58] <johnwedd> i'm not worried about my hardware, i have a laptop with a USB mouse
[09:58] <johnwedd> i am, worried about my games
[09:59] <DannyKing> Well, I'd like it to pan /scroll pages in text documents & firefox
[09:59] <DannyKing> Don't think there's a shortcut for that
[09:59] <sfer3> Hmm, I'm not sure about that...
[09:59] <DannyKing> Okay thanks
[09:59] <johnwedd> pgdn/up
[09:59] <koshar1> johnwedd gaming isnt really one of linuxs strengths
[09:59] <johnwedd> i know, but the core os is perfect for gaming
[10:00] <johnwedd> but not to many developers
[10:00] <miccantino> mmmh... someone knows if after I have installed an alpha version of Ubuntu, it will update to the official stable release, in the future, without loose anything?
[10:00] <centyx> miccantino: just keep apt-get dist-upgrade'ing
[10:01] <johnwedd> i would mount another drive for your personal files just in case
[10:01] <DannyKing> miccantino: yes but it will probably not be as stable than if you just download the stable when it is released
[10:01] <g0g0r1n> is there any way how to run vmware-server on hardy ?
[10:01] <koshar1> miccantino the only real problem is that updates tend to come fast and furious, especialy if you havnt logged on for a few days
[10:01] <miccantino> thanks guys
[10:02] <miccantino> kosharl: there will be updates with the alpha too?
[10:02] <centyx> i ditched my intrepid install b/c everything depended on xcb-util and the version installed was too old for awesome 3.0
[10:02] <johnwedd> what is the name of the latest edition, btw?
[10:02] <centyx> miccantino: constant updates, daily
[10:03] <DannyKing> latest stable is Hardy herron
[10:03] <DannyKing> beta version is called iterpid ibex
[10:03] <johnwedd> what in the world is an ibex?
[10:03] <miccantino> wow, then it means that ubuntu developer community is very active
[10:03] <sfer3> Bird. :P
[10:04] <LSD|Ninja> johnwedd: 8.10
[10:04] <LSD|Ninja> johnwedd: it's a weird goaty thing
[10:04] <sfer3> Isn't it a...
[10:04] <johnwedd> odd
[10:04] <sfer3> Oh yeah. Confused.
[10:04] <koshar1> miccantino effectively by using the pre-release you are alpha-beta testing
[10:04]  * LSD|Ninja notes noone in here will get that and those that do will know they were Onyxes :P
[10:04] <jsmith101> i can't change my screen res can sumone help?
[10:05] <johnwedd> it won't be long until we'll  be downloading Nighttime Neko
[10:05] <sfer3> jsmith101: Could you give some more information?
[10:05] <miccantino> i tried to compile the alpha kernel but it halted on half way... (after 1.5 hour)
[10:05] <miccantino> with an error
[10:06] <LSD|Ninja> I wonder what'll happen in nine years when they run out of letters? Will Ubuntu even be around then? :P
[10:06] <miccantino> then I think it's better to download a binary snapshot
[10:06] <centyx> what fonts do you all use in your terminal windows? I'm having trouble getting a decent looking/sized one at work. I use xft:smoothansi at home, but on the monitor at work this is too small
[10:06] <centyx> I've tried DejaVu Sans Mono, Andale Mono, and a couple others, but they don't seem to scale well
[10:06] <MaxJay> hello!
[10:06] <MaxJay> anyone that can help me out with a ethernet problem?
[10:06] <johnwedd> when i use linux, i give the kernal a wide berth, not really good at fiddling with such things
[10:07] <miccantino> I think the best font ever is Windows Tahoma
[10:07] <sfer3> !ask | maxjay
[10:07] <koshar1> LSD|Ninja they will just reuse letters, they ghave alreadyu
[10:07] <g0g0r1n> is there any way how to run vmware-server on hardy ? .. i cant find kernel modules for 24 kernel
[10:08] <erUSUL> !vmware
[10:08] <centyx> g0g0r1n: won't it build the modules for you?
[10:08] <MaxJay> sorry, i have a working ethernet card. on my computer, but today i got internet, and i want to share the internet. but my linuxcomputer does not recognice the other ethernet card. just one of them, i got two.. any ideas?
[10:08] <johnwedd> koshar1: or start with numbers or abstract symbols
[10:08] <LSD|Ninja> koshar1: I suppose in 9 years everyone will have forgotten the early ones :P
[10:08] <erUSUL> MaxJay: paste "lspci | grep - Net" on pastebin
[10:08] <erUSUL> !paste | MaxJay
[10:08] <sfer3> When did you put the second one in? After installing?
[10:09] <koshar1> who remembers hoary these days?
[10:09] <centyx> i tried vmware server on feisty once, but uninstalled so I could virtualbox
[10:09] <MaxJay> sfer3, yes. after
[10:09] <centyx> ^use
[10:09] <MaxJay> i have been running ubuntu for some weeks and it's the best!
[10:10] <sfer3> That's good to hear. :)
[10:10] <koshar1> MaxJay by what measure?
[10:10] <philc> how can I hide the output from this command? touch 1 &
[10:10] <johnwedd> i'm a gamer, it would be hard for me to upgrade
[10:10] <philc> the [1]  pid info that bash spits out
[10:11] <miccantino> I have to go. See you guys... Thanks for all.
[10:11] <MaxJay> i'm a little bit of a newbee on this so i dont really know all the commands and so on... do i need to reinstall the ubuntu system to get it recognice the other ethernet card?
[10:12] <sfer3> No, not at all
[10:12] <erUSUL> philc: touch 1 &> /dev/null
[10:12] <erUSUL> MaxJay: no; just do what i asked you to do
[10:12] <sfer3> I was just wondering, because if you put it in there before installing it should have recognized it and configure it, but don't worry about that.
[10:13] <koshar1> MaxJay you shouldnt have to reinstall, modprobe will generally do the trick,
[10:13] <philc> erUSUL: I'm trying to run the touch command as a background process, something more like this: tail -f /etc/hosts & &> /dev/null
[10:13] <philc> a simple &> doesn't seem to do it
[10:13] <centyx> hi max... what model card is it?
[10:14] <johnwedd> i will see you lovely people later
[10:14] <MaxJay> centyx, it's a regular card.. 10/100.. i dont know the name
[10:14] <erUSUL> philc: what's the point on dong a tail without whatching th output?
[10:14] <MaxJay> i have test a feew cards
[10:14] <centyx> max: do you see it in the output of sudo lshw | tee lshw.txt
[10:14] <philc> erUSUL: I want the output of tail; I just do not want the output bash spits out when you start a job in the background
[10:14] <centyx> MaxJay: ah
[10:14] <philc> it looks like this: [1] 15043
[10:15] <nach> Hi ! i can I check whether a package is installed or not with APT ?
[10:15] <MaxJay> what's the pastbin?
[10:15] <Pizarro> Morning everybody
[10:15] <centyx> MaxJay: what makes you you think it's not working?
[10:15] <koshar1> MaxJay you really need to know the chipset it uses so as to load the correct driver/module
[10:15] <tomas_> Hi all, guys i cant get my Atheros wireless card working :(
[10:15] <erUSUL> philc: but again tail. needs the control of the terminal you launch it there is no point on leaving it on background
[10:15] <tomas_> can anybody help me please?
[10:15] <erUSUL> !paste | MaxJay
[10:16] <philc> erUSUL: tail does not need control of the terminal. Doing tail /etc/hosts will spit new lines in /etc/host to stdout whenever it changes, and you can continue running commands in bash while tail runs in the background
[10:16] <ghaleb> hello, I have scheduled a cron task with the config */4 * *  * * root  /bin/updateStatus.sh > /home/log.log  but it's not working
[10:16] <centyx> MaxJay: try   ifconfig -a|less  in a terminal window ... what all devices do you have there?
[10:16] <philc> s/tail/ tail /etc/hosts &
[10:17] <jyotsna> Hey! Does anyone know how to change the keyboard country layout
[10:17] <nach> Hi ! i can I check whether a package is installed or not with APT ?
[10:17] <sfer3> It should be in...
[10:18] <Pizarro> I am having big issues with the installation of Ubuntu Server. Yesterday I couldn't manage the network to work, I though it was because the network card I vas using (VIA and realtek), today I bought a NEW COMPUTER, I just unpacked it and I am trying to install this crap, now the INstallation hangs ant the very begining saying: "Starting system log daemon: syslogd, klogd"....
[10:18] <sfer3> jyotsna: System > Preferences > Keyboard
[10:18] <notwist> nach: try installing it and see if it already exists :P
[10:18] <Pizarro> Can anyone help me???? I just donwloaded yesterday Ubuntu Server 8.04,
[10:18] <sfer3> (and then "layouts")
[10:18] <notwist> Pizarro: just ask the question :)
[10:18] <sfer3> !ask | Pizarro
[10:18] <Pizarro> notwist, it's above
[10:18] <comicinker> nach: If you have a running X, you can use synaptic
[10:18] <Pizarro> my question is above
[10:18] <Dabbu> if my cd drive is not working can i install ubuntu on my laptop
[10:18] <MaxJay> centyx, i cant find the card.. in network settings
[10:18] <sfer3> Oh, didn't notice
[10:18] <nach> comicinker: thank but i want it in CLI
[10:18] <notwist> sfer3: somethings up with your messages. < sfer3> \ufeff!ask | Pizarro
[10:18] <jyotsna> Yeah...I tried changing the layout from UK keyboard layout but it won't let me
[10:19] <nach> that why i want ot know the apt command !
[10:19] <DannyKing> jyotsna: or easier, right click on your panel, click add to panel then add the 'keyboard indicator' applet. that lets you change layouts by clicking like in windows
[10:19] <pyrohotdog> I've run apt-cache clean since install, which seems to have rendered aptoncd useless?
[10:19] <comicinker> nach: I'm still researching, I did it already...
[10:19] <sfer3> notwist: Yeah, I was wondering why the bot didn't respond. Is it still doing it now?
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[10:19] <notwist> sfer3: nope
[10:19] <notwist>  < sfer3> notwist: Yeah, I was wondering why
[10:19] <Pizarro> This is a new desktop computer, just out from the vendor, with and it hangs just after selecting the installation language¿?¿?¿?¿?
[10:19] <MaxJay> if i reinstall ubuntu. will the two network cards work then?
[10:19] <sfer3> That's alright, notwist
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> sfer3: ask the bot again
[10:20] <MaxJay> it's so fast to reinstall so i can do that..
[10:20] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | MaxJay
[10:20] <nach> comicinker: thanks for the help !
[10:20] <MaxJay> i like to install this beautyful system..
[10:20] <notwist> Pizarro: it's hard to say, it could be a lot of reasons. Some computers are simply not compatible with Ubuntu, it's happened to me a couple of times
[10:20] <sfer3> MaxJay: Probably, but only if you don't want to go through this.
[10:20] <sfer3> !ask | test
[10:20] <sfer3> There we go
[10:20] <comicinker> nach: you can retrieve a list of all installed packages and their description by using: COLUMNS=200 dpkg-query -l > packages.list
[10:20] <nach> comicinker: i know the dpkg -l show the status of the package
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> comicinker: easier to use dpkg -l | less
[10:21] <scuser> hi all, does anyone know how to install hpl on ubuntu 8.04 or just give me guidance on how to do so ?
[10:21] <nach> ok, so you think there is no apt commande ?
[10:21] <Pizarro> notwist, well, it seems that several computers aren't compatible, yesterday a compaq was unable to make to work, and today a new Acer
[10:21] <erUSUL> MaxJay: why are you ignorin what people says?? just do what i asked to do 10 mins ago if you want help...
[10:21] <sfer3> scuser: hpl?
[10:21] <Pizarro> notwist, I really don't want to go with Windows Server
[10:21] <notwist> Pizarro: are you sure there is nothing wrong with it? Can you install Windows?
[10:21] <scuser> sfer3: high performance linpack can be found at http://www.netlib.org/benchmark/hpl/
[10:21] <Pizarro> notwist, the computer is NEW, today I just unpacked it, and it is comming already with Vista wich is working
[10:22] <comicinker> nach: you can create a list of installed packages to reinstall them later with this command: dpkg --get-selections | awk '!/deinstall|purge|hold/ {print $1}' > packages.list
[10:22] <scuser> sfer3: I just want to measure the performance of my clustre
[10:22] <sfer3> scuser: Aah, okay. Not familiar with that one.
[10:22] <erUSUL> !clone | nach
[10:22] <scuser> sfer3: never mind :)
[10:22] <MaxJay> erUSUL, i did do the pastein, but i did not really understand...
[10:22] <sfer3> Pizarro: Just because Vista works on it, doesn't necessarily mean Ubuntu will.
[10:22] <sfer3> Are you sure the install disk is free of defects?
[10:23] <erUSUL> MaxJay: you have to give me the url of the pastebin you did with the output of the "lspci | grep -i net"
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> !md5 | Pizarro
[10:23] <nach> thanks all !
[10:23] <Pizarro> sfer3, well yesterday I could finish the installation in other computer for 3 times (but without the network) using the same disk
[10:23] <MaxJay> http://paste.ubuntu.com/47383/
[10:24] <MaxJay> erUSUL, http://paste.ubuntu.com/47383/ :)
[10:24] <notwist> Pizarro: is there no error message? It just hangs?
[10:24] <sfer3> ActionParsnip: You can also do it in the CD menu, can't you? (Just in case it wasn't burnt correctly)
[10:24] <elky> Pizarro, it could have got damaged in that time too, you know
[10:24] <sfer3> Pizarro: Aah okay, that probably rules out the disk.
[10:24] <Pizarro> notwist, just after the INSTALLATION LANGUAGE selection, it hangs saying: "Starting system log daemon: syslogd, klogd"
[10:24] <scuser> hi all, does anyone know how to install hpl on ubuntu 8.04 or just give me guidance on how to do so ?
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> sfer3: yes but if the image is screwed then the md5 on the cd for cecking itself my be damaged too
[10:24] <sfer3> But, of course, it could have gotten some scratches between the 2.
[10:24] <sfer3> Good point
[10:24] <ActionParsnip> scuser: what is a hpl?
[10:24] <Pizarro> elky, it could be,
[10:25] <notwist> Pizarro: have you tried different languages and see if the error occurs on all of them?
[10:25] <notwist> Pizarro: it sounds like a typical broken disc to me
[10:25] <sfer3> !repeat | scuser
[10:25] <notwist> scuser: have you tried googling?
[10:25] <erUSUL> MaxJay: lspci | grep -i Net (you typed it wrong... Go to Aaplications>Accesories>Terminal open it type "lspci | grep -i Net" hit enter and paste the "output"
[10:25] <Pizarro> notwist, ok let me try to clean the cd
[10:25] <scuser> ActionParsnip: high performance linpack can be found at http://www.netlib.org/benchmark/hpl/
[10:25] <scuser> notwist: yes, but in vain :(
[10:26] <notwist> Pizarro: if it's a CD-RW or DVD-RW it might be that the disc is permanently bad. I tried burning Linux on 3 year old discs once and it took me a while to figure out that they were all dead
[10:26] <ActionParsnip> scuser: you got a few spare machines eh? looks fun
[10:27] <MaxJay> erUSUL,  http://paste.ubuntu.com/47385/
[10:27] <ganesh> can any one help me with gnome crash problem?i can see only a white screen and a cursor on login
[10:27] <chris062689_> !KDE4
[10:27] <scuser> ActionParsnip: yes I have 13 machine and I want to test their performance using hpl or any other method if you can help with it ?
[10:27] <Pizarro> notwist, it is strange, the disc looks ok, and I yesterday in the other computer was working fine, I cleaned it but I still geting the same message on screen
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> scuser: sownload the tar.gz and compile looks to be the way forward
[10:27] <notwist> Pizarro: is it a re-writable disc?
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> scuser: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-776318.html
[10:28] <Pizarro> notwist, no it isn't, it's a CD-Rç
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> !compile | scuser
[10:29] <DannyKing> could someone tell me where my X logs are?
[10:29] <notwist> Pizarro: when you boot the cd, choose the alternative to check the disc. There is a built in function for it. It might take a little while but then atleast you'll know that the disc is 100 % ok and can look for other problems
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> !xlogs
[10:29] <ActionParsnip> !logs
[10:29] <KazaLite> how can i find vendor id and product id of hard drive attached to my computer?
[10:29] <Pizarro> notwist, I already did that, and the same message, I am going to burn it again
[10:30] <DannyKing> I mean my X display logs on my system :)
[10:30] <notwist> Pizarro: you got an error message while checking the disc? That pretty much settles it. Try burning it at a lower speed
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> DannyKing: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[10:30] <notwist> Pizarro: lower speed takes more time but it lowers the risk of data corruption
[10:30] <ActionParsnip> DannyKing: also try dmesg | tail
[10:30] <DannyKing> thanks :)
[10:30] <Pizarro> notwist, yes, I get the same messasge trying to check it, I am burning another new one
[10:31] <notwist> Pizarro: if the other one fails as well you probably need to look for a reason on the computer you're burning on. Maybe bad type of CD-Rs or too high speed, etc.
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> Pizarro: if you burn slower you'll have more chance of a successful burn, I always burn 8x for bootable media
[10:32] <erUSUL> MaxJay: you pluggeed the new ethernet card incorrctly... open the computer case and check it
[10:32] <Pizarro> notwist, I am burning now at x12, but if the computer I am using as recorder is faulty, the cd wouldn't worked yesterday for 3 times in other computer
[10:32] <notwist> Pizarro: maybe it went bad overnight or something then :)
[10:32] <ganesh> can any one help me with gnome crash problem?i can see only a white screen and a cursor on login
[10:32] <sfer3> Pizarro: I was going to point that out :P
[10:32] <Pizarro> notwist, yeah, who knows,
[10:33] <reel_> kazalite, sudo  lshw -C disk
[10:33] <sfer3> !repeat | ganesh
[10:33] <sfer3> Ganesh: Can you  log in using a different session?
[10:33] <Pizarro> I am using Verbatin CD-R disks, so I don't thinkg they are such bad
[10:33] <notwist> ganesh: is it right after a clean install?
[10:33] <sfer3> And can you give some more information about the problem?
[10:33]  * Kondensuotas_pie hau!
[10:33] <MaxJay> erUSUL,  my computer does not have anything to open, the card is plugged in on a extensiocard on my motherboard.
[10:33] <notwist> Pizarro: probably not in your case. but sometimes brands of burners work bad with certain brands of CDs
[10:34] <MaxJay> brb.. it can be bios..
[10:34] <Pizarro> notwist, the recorder I am using is a Lightscribe one (DVD/CD, etc..)
[10:34] <erUSUL> MaxJay: then check there. the card does not show on lspci that means that the problem is phisical there is no conection
[10:34] <ganesh>  sfer3:notwist: its same with all accounts except failsafe...it was working fine before
[10:34] <nandemonai> Hi guys, how come sudo update-manager -d gives the option of 8.10 already? Shouldn't that only happen on release?
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> nandemonai: are you running intrepid?
[10:35] <nandemonai> No, Hardy.
[10:35] <notwist> ganesh: did you change any configuration?
[10:35] <Pizarro> notwist, once ubuntu server is installed, how stable is it? I mean, am I goint to get some weird surpraises like this in the future??
[10:35] <notwist> ganesh: install any new packages?
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> nandemonai: well if the repos are offering it then i'd take it, you should run updae-manager with gksu too
[10:36] <notwist> Pizarro: I'm running it on my router box right now and it's been running for 20 days atleast :P
[10:36] <mgolisch> -d, --devel-release Check if upgrading to the latest devel release is possible
[10:36] <nandemonai> (I am testing under vmware though but I'm talking about my hardy desktop)
[10:36] <mgolisch> thats why
[10:36] <Pizarro> notwist, I am asking because I spent 2 days trying to install this without success, and it is not the first time I installa Linux
[10:36] <nandemonai> Ohh right.
[10:36] <notwist> Pizarro: one great tip is to install the package called "ebox", that helped me a lot. It's a web interface that lets you configure the server with network sharing and stuff
[10:36] <ganesh>  notwist: dont remember...how can i check which is the last installed package?
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> notwist: webmin does that sort of thing too
[10:37] <bullgard4> [Organizing bookmark directories in Firefox 3 > Library] How can I rename a bookmark directory?
[10:37] <notwist> ganesh: not sure. the quickest way might be to reinstall gnome or something
[10:37] <Pizarro> notwist, OK, I was thinking about installing somethign to let me control the server from other network computer, like VNC, etc.. taht might work
[10:37] <notwist> ActionParsnip: I heard webmin was insecure
[10:37] <erUSUL> !webmin | notwist
[10:37] <ganesh> notwist: how do i do that?
[10:37] <notwist> erUSUL: yeah, what about it?
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> notwist: not sure, i just know of it. I just use ssh :)
[10:38] <Pizarro> notwist, ok a new CD ready!, I am going to tray again the isntallation
[10:38] <notwist> ganesh: if you go into a command prompt like shift+F1 or something, you can apt-get remove the gnome-desktop package and then install it again
[10:38] <notwist> Pizarro: you should use SSH for text based remote admin and ebox for the network config (or just iptables if you're good at it, which im not)
[10:39] <notwist> ActionParsnip: ebox saved my day, i tried to get my computer up as a router for an entire day and with ebox it just worked
[10:39] <notwist> ActionParsnip: I wanted to kill myself over all the iptables documentation
[10:39] <ActionParsnip> notwist: or you could forward X over ssh ;) and use firestarter :D
[10:39] <ahtmly2k> how come when i have the audio enabled on the mana world i cant hear sounds from other media players?
[10:39] <freaky[t]> !ubuntu +1
[10:39] <notwist> ActionParsnip: well forwarding X on ubuntu server seems weird doesn't it :)
[10:39] <ganesh>  notwist:what exactly is the command?
[10:39] <freaky[t]> why can i not join #ubuntu+1?
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> notwist: not massively
[10:40] <Pizarro> notwist, now it didn't hang after selecting the isntallation language, but when the "Choose language" text windows appear....I give up
[10:40] <notwist> ganesh: sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop and then replace "remove" with "install"
[10:40] <erUSUL> notwist: iptables is to low level for most uses... just use something like shorewall; firehol or other firewall script
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> freaky[t]: /join #ubuntu+1
[10:40] <notwist> Pizarro: did you check the CD?
[10:40] <notwist> erUSUL: firewall is not only for port blocking but also for forwarding (ie routing) right?
[10:41] <ganesh> notwist: E: Couldn't find package gnome-desktop
[10:41] <erUSUL> notwist: yep firehol and dhorewall do all that stuff (or a firewall distribution like ipcop or zeroshell)
[10:41] <Pizarro> notwist, yes, the same issue, same message, and hangs again
[10:41] <notwist> Pizarro: when you boot there is an option to check the CD, that hangs it?
[10:42] <Pizarro> notwist, yes
[10:42] <freaky[t]> ah now it seems like i got a huge lag
[10:42] <ActionParsnip> ganesh: try tab completing the package name
[10:42] <Pizarro> notwist, if the issue was in the cd, the cd-reader should be working, however it's off, no light
[10:42] <notwist> Pizarro: maybe its broken? Not impossible even if its new
[10:43] <Pizarro> notwist, let me try with a cd of Xp
[10:43] <ganesh> ActionParsnip: didn't get you
[10:43] <Pizarro> notwist, no, I am going to try with a debian genuine cd
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> ganesh: just like tab completing anything in linux, you can tab complete package names when you are playing with apt-get
[10:44] <jyotsna> Hey! what's a good site for freeware apps
[10:44] <jyotsna> does anyone no!
[10:44] <notwist> jyotsna: for ubuntu?
[10:44] <xtrememertx> ActionParsnip:hi
[10:44] <DannyKing> geb.org is pretty good
[10:45] <DannyKing> er, getdeb.org *
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> hey xtrememertx
 YEAH
[10:45] <DannyKing> actually it's getdeb.net
[10:45] <ganesh> notwist:is it gnome-desktop-data?
[10:45] <jyotsna> i'll try that one
[10:46] <erUSUL> jyotsna: anything more appart the thousans of apps aviable through apt/synaptic ??
[10:46] <xtrememertx> ActionParsnip: i met st3ph
[10:46] <Pizarro> notwist, well, with a Debian distro, burned on the same brand Cd, using the same CD recorder, it is working FINE
[10:46] <Pizarro> notwist, so the issue is Ubuntu Server
[10:46] <erUSUL> !software | jyotsna
[10:46] <jyotsna> <erUSUL: Well I just wana browse some cool software
[10:46] <jyotsna> for ubunty
[10:47] <jyotsna> ubuntu*
[10:47] <xtrememertx> ActionParsnip:  I saw her config file  she has an 865  and i have 810
[10:47] <erUSUL> jyotsna: tried Aplications>Add/Remove ??
[10:47] <blue-frog> jyotsna: open synaptic package manager to start with
[10:47] <notwist> Pizarro: seems weird why it would lock up at such an early stage but sure, try debian instead then
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> xtrememertx: do you mean st3ph's?
[10:47] <blue-frog> jyotsna: or better as erUSUL said
[10:47] <jyotsna> Yeah I tried that...got some pretty good stuff there....Just wanted to bookmark site that you guys no for future for
[10:47] <Pizarro> notwist, I really give up, now Debian installation says than no CD-ROM was detected....but it is using the CD-ROM to load it self....pufff
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> jyotsna: or websearch round for what you wanna do. e.g Ubuntu map software
[10:47] <jyotsna> software download
[10:48] <xtrememertx> ActionParsnip: yes
[10:48] <ActionParsnip> xtrememertx: she has an i810 driver running which is giving her full res
[10:49] <st3ph> ActionParsnip,  but its a different chip we found out
[10:49] <st3ph> he has 810 i have 865
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> st3ph: but your xorg.conf is using the i810 driver yes?
[10:50] <xtrememertx> ActionParsnip:i'm getting full resolution  but low fps
[10:50] <xtrememertx> yes she isusing i810
[10:50] <st3ph> i look
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> xtrememertx: doesnt hurt to have a go, you can always roll back if you backup your current xorg.conf
[10:51] <Pizarro> It's really a pitty situations like this force some users to still stuck on Microsoft osftware
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> Pizarro: i dont use any, what software do you need?
[10:51] <ganesh> notwist:is it gnome-desktop-data?
[10:51] <erUSUL> st3ph: some drivers (intel and i810) can drive many chip revisions/versions
[10:51] <xtrememertx> Actionparsnip:her busid is different
[10:51] <david> hello
[10:51] <erUSUL> st3ph: man intel or man i810 for details
[10:51] <Pizarro> ActionParsnip, none, I am just trying to install Ubuntu Server in a new computer, that's it
[10:51] <st3ph> erUSUL,  ty
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> xtrememertx: xorg.conf will always be the same
[10:51] <david> is htere a way to set the desktop effects to be disabled when on battery power?
[10:51] <notwist> ganesh: i think it should be just gnome-desktop
[10:52] <Pizarro> ActionParsnip, however, the results are forcing me to move to Windows Server
[10:52] <notwist> ganesh: maybe its ubuntu-desktop
[10:52] <st3ph> erUSUL,  what do i type in terminal now
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> Pizarro: what results?
[10:52] <notwist> Pizarro: Sounds like your CD drive is defect
[10:52] <notwist> Pizarro: or atleast a bit weird
[10:52] <erUSUL> st3ph: what are you trying to do?
[10:52] <notwist> Pizarro: perhaps you could try installing ubuntu server in a different way, from a usb stick for example
[10:52] <xtrememertx> ActionParsnip: i mean my bus id is different from hers its 0:1:0 where as she has 0:2:0
[10:52] <Rowellen> Hi, I am having problems doing a ping to eg. www.google.com. on the IP I get replies but on the name nothing
[10:52] <st3ph> erUSUL,  to see my config
[10:53] <Pizarro> notwist, well, yesterdqay in other computer this stuff didn't work...so I don't think two computers, one very new (just a cuple of hours working) are the reason
[10:53] <erUSUL> Rowellen: dns isuues ?
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> xtrememertx: then leave that line in yours and change the rest
[10:53] <erUSUL> st3ph: less /etc/X11/xorg.conf ?
[10:53] <xtrememertx> ok ill brb  ty
[10:53] <notwist> Pizarro: you said installation worked on the other computer
[10:53] <Pizarro> notwist, yes, but not the network
[10:53] <st3ph> xtrememertx,  u need any info now again?
[10:54] <Guest5467> is htere a way to set the desktop effects to be disabled when on battery power?
[10:54] <notwist> Pizarro: the network has nothing to do with either the CD or the CD-rom
[10:54] <Pizarro> notwist, everything was installaed in the other computer, but I was unable to ping even my router
[10:54] <xtrememertx> no st3ph  ..ill brb
[10:54] <st3ph> erUSUL,  ty
[10:54] <st3ph> hb
[10:54] <notwist> Pizarro: you cant compare the two "not working" because one of them actually installs and the other wont
[10:54] <notwist> Pizarro: the network problem is probably driver related or a bad configuration
[10:54] <Pizarro> notwist, well, I know, I spent one day yesterday checking everyhitnkg in my network confuguration and the PC cwired duirectly to my router, was unable to ping it, even weveeryhitng was ok from ifconfig, etc..
[10:55] <notwist> Pizarro: well it still doesnt have anything to do with either the CD or the CD-ROM
[10:55] <Pizarro> notwist, in fact I was all the morning yesterday here in this channel trying to solve that issue and the conclussion was that the Via chip for network is not compatible with Ubuntu server
[10:56] <Pizarro> notwist, I am not saying it has something to do with the cd, what I try to say is that the CD is not the issue, because that's the proof
[10:56] <Pizarro> notwist, so the issue is not on my recorder, not on my cd's brand, etc,,
[10:56] <notwist> Pizarro: no but the CD-ROM in the new computer might be
[10:56] <Pizarro> notwist, OK, let's try installing XP pro
[10:56] <leopard65>  /msg NickServ identify 100908
[10:57] <torx1704> how can i mount a iso on ubuntu ?... :P
[10:57] <jyotsna> Where can I find a list for drivers and file types that don't work with liux
[10:58] <ratheesh> quit
[10:58] <gigilove> ciao raga
[10:58] <ActionParsnip> !mount | torx1704
[10:58] <gigilove> volevo sapere come si fa a caricare gli addon dei canali
[10:58] <fantomas> I'm looking for a lightweight personal organizer/scheduler/clock with remindering function. Any recommendations?
[10:58] <gigilove> qualcuno mi può aiutare
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> torx1704: sudo mkdir /mnt/isomount; sudo mount -o lopp /path/to/file.iso /mnt/isomount
[10:59] <tomasz_> hi
[10:59] <jyotsna> <fantomas: Try softpedia.co
[10:59] <ActionParsnip> lopp == loop (typo)
[10:59] <Pizarro> notwist, well , XP Pro CD is working pretty well, and it's another burned cd
[10:59] <jyotsna> com
[10:59] <torx1704> is it possible to install windows from a extern harddrive
[11:00] <Rowellen> thanks  erUSUL, windows dns server was down
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> torx1704: absolutely, if you write the xp cd boot sector to the usb storage, or you can boot to dos and run winnt.exe but you will only be able to format fat32
 Yeah
[11:00] <ActionParsnip> torx1704: any other windows questions please use ##windows
[11:01] <Pizarro> notwist, the computer has sata-II hasrd disks, do you think this could have somethig to do?
[11:02] <torx1704> just one more windows question, when u say boot sector what do you mean then ? :p ?
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> torx1704: thecd has a small program written to it to make it bootup, just like your harddrive does. if you copy the data over this does not get copied
[11:03] <torx1704> okay
[11:03] <torx1704> thx alot
[11:03] <Pizarro> notwist, and the CD-ROM is connected to the Sata Channel instead of the IDE one
[11:03] <ActionParsnip> torx1704: why did you think to ask windows questions in a ubuntu support channel?

[11:20] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: organise bookmarks in the bookmarks menu is the same thing
[11:20] <ActionParsnip> bullgard4: you could always revisit the site, delete the bookmark then recreate it
[11:20] <Pizarro> ActionParsnip, is there any package to control remotly the server? like VNC or Remote Desktop, etc..
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> Pizarro: no, ssh is a remote command line server
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> !vnc | Pizarro

[11:26] <user_sea> just little people
[11:27] <user_sea> i have to quit ,have somethings to do
[11:27] <turk> hey guys what's the easiest way to transfer files from my college's unix server to my Ubuntu desktop?
[11:28] <Kartagis> when will mysql-server new version be in the repos?
[11:28] <turk> i'm using scp to get files to the server but can't seem to do the opposite
[11:29] <lesshaste> which package has the XScreenSaver extension development headers?
[11:30] <Pizarro> ActionParsnip, do you recommend me to install Ubuntu-Desktop on the server machine?
[11:31] <sat_e_llite> hello
[11:31] <turk> good morning
[11:31] <ne2k__> turk: if you can do it one way I'm pretty sure you can do it the other
[11:32] <sat_e_llite> it's good evening here. :)
[11:32] <sat_e_llite> i have a question
[11:32] <ne2k__> turk: are you working from the server or from the desktop?
[11:32] <ne2k__> !ask @sat_e_llite
[11:32] <turk> ne2k: from my desktop.  when i transfer from the server it gives a confirmation that it works but it is no where to be found on my desktop
[11:32] <ne2k__> hmmm
[11:33] <ne2k__> turk: can you do this? cd ~; scp username@server:file-on-server ./
[11:33] <sat_e_llite> does a disk partition consumes the remaining space in a drive or just resizes it so another partition can fit it?
[11:34] <ActionParsnip> xtrememertx: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=27029&highlight=i810
[11:34] <ne2k__> sat_e_llite: a disk is divided into a number of partitions. each of them is a fixed size.
[11:34] <ne2k__> sat_e_llite: you put a filesystem on a partition, typically the whole size of the partition. you then put files in the filesystem.
[11:34] <ne2k__> sat_e_llite: I'm not really sure what you're asking
[11:35] <turk> ne2k: yea that works fine
[11:35] <sat_e_llite> no I meant if I create a partition for ubuntu and it's swap (what ever it's called) partitions, does it consumes the remaining space in a drive? I'm worried because I have approx 11.0GB without wubi installed
[11:36] <FreeSystem> hello
[11:36] <sat_e_llite> good evening
[11:36] <Pizarro> Anyone using eBox? I installed it but there are only logs and events monitorizing options
[11:37] <erUSUL> Pizarro: maybe you do not installed all the packages/plugins
[11:37] <sat_e_llite> im going to boot into ubuntu soon
[11:37] <stdin> sat_e_llite: wubi doesn't partition the disk, it creates a file on the partition you installed it to, then treats that as if it was a disk
[11:37] <xtrememertx> Actionparnsip: i have  been to that thread before .. but the people there  who had low fps problem solved it by updating bios
[11:37] <sat_e_llite> i know
[11:37] <magnetron> sat_e_llite, if you use wubi, you don't have to create any partitions at all.
[11:37] <sat_e_llite> but i'm gonna transfer it to a partition
[11:38] <erUSUL> !find ebox | Pizarro
[11:38] <erUSUL> !find ebox Hardy

[11:38] <Pizarro> erUSUL, I have just made sudo apt-get install ebooks
[11:38] <Hosstest> how do I open a text file in privelldge mode, for editing?
[11:38] <turk> ne2k: when i give the command scp username@host:myfile targetfile...it just saves a copy on the server
[11:38] <Pizarro> erUSUL, where can I find all the avaibnale modules?
[11:38] <erUSUL> Pizarro: sudo apt-get install ebox-ca ebox-dhcp ebox-dns ebox-firewall and the 13 others
[11:39] <erUSUL> Pizarro: apt-cache search ebox
[11:39] <sfer3> Hosstest: Navigate to the folder it is in in the terminal, then type sudo gedit (or whatever editor you want to use) textfilehere
[11:39] <xtrememertx> I think i have to move on to windows :((
[11:39] <sat_e_llite> why
[11:40] <Pizarro> I don't get any ebooks package when I perform a search
[11:40] <sat_e_llite> im using windows right now, but i have ubuntu installed
[11:40] <xtrememertx> driver  problem
[11:40] <xtrememertx> i  have only ubuntu installed now
[11:40] <Hosstest> how do I open a text file with elivated rights to edit it?
[11:40] <sfer3> Hosstest: read above
[11:40] <sfer3> (20:39:39) sfer3: Hosstest: Navigate to the folder it is in in the terminal, then type sudo gedit (or whatever editor you want to use) textfilehere
[11:41] <Hosstest> thanks
[11:41] <sfer3> No worries
[11:41] <sat_e_llite> who dual boots here?
[11:41] <erUSUL> sat_e_llite: probably most people (not me btw)
[11:42] <sfer3> I don't bother with it, gets complicated. Just ubuntu, that's it.
[11:42] <erUSUL> !gksudo | sat_e_llite
[11:42] <xtrememertx> is there any way to upgrade to bios on ubuntu ?
[11:42] <freak> sudo gedit filepath
[11:43] <sat_e_llite> any ways to transfer a Wubi install to a partition?
[11:43] <erUSUL> xtrememertx: you can create a freedos/dos disquette/cd image to do the upgrade (most bios written utils have a DOS version)
[11:44] <joaopinto> xtrememertx, that will depend on your BIOS type,check http://www.linuxinsight.com/how-to-flash-motherboard-bios-from-linux-no-dos-windows-no-floppy-drive.html
[11:44] <DannyKing> Anyone know how I can change the action that mouse button 9 does?
[11:44] <xtrememertx> i tried to search for the latest  bios..they are asking me to pay money
[11:45] <sfer3> DannyKing: It *may* be in keyboard shortcuts?
[11:45] <joaopinto> xtrememertx, complain to your hw vendor :P
[11:45] <HexKey> Hey everyone, im pretty new to ubuntu and need some help setting up dual monitors on ym dell D830, i tried a tutorial i found but it totally borked my screen and i just spent 30 mins fixing it again.
[11:45] <erUSUL> !dualhead
[11:46] <ganes1> i tried uninstalling and installing ubuntu-desktop still i have the same problem that is on login i get a blank white screen and a cursor..can any one help?
[11:46] <cad1> I've got a question about bash. I just noticed that it does tab completion on command options and even apt-get packages and I was wondering if that has been a standard configuration of it for a while. I recently installed zsh and it was only after doing that and learning about zsh's option completion that I noticed that bash does it too.

[11:49] <HexKey> erUSUL: the tutorial i was following did not require any additional downloads just some editing of xorg.conf

[11:51] <blue-frog> cad1: completion is activated for your users, not for root, so if you only works in root mode (eg: sudo -i) then you don't see autocompletion unless you enable it in .bashrc
[11:51] <HexKey> ok so can someone please guide me through setting up another monitor using xorg.conf?

[12:10] <Debolaz> Hrmm... Is WebDAV support broken in Hardy? I'm having trouble keeping a connection to any webdav service, and when googling for it, it seems that several other people using hardy also has the problem.
[12:11] <allen> i don't know what i mean, the start up time have suddenly increased... and somtimes ubuntu make a filescan at start up when i fixes problems.
[12:12] <allen> i want ubuntu to make that kind of scan, so it fixes the problems by it self
[12:12] <sfer3> What problems?
[12:12] <erUSUL> allen: linux does a fsck peridically on startup or when there was an unclean shutdown... that does encrease boot time
[12:13] <erUSUL> allen: if you want to force that check on the next boot just do "sudo touch /forcefsck"
[12:13] <sfer3> Ohh, I get it, the scans. Aah, I thought you meant something completely different. ;)

[12:18] <tom_>  short question as a linux newby:  You all know that if you put a link to an executable into the usr/bin path, it will be accessible form the shell...  is it possible to do the same thing in a directory within my home directory? since I dont have root rights...
[12:19] <Debolaz> comicinker: Nautilus webdav is broken in hardy as far as I can tell.. I can try konqueror though.
[12:19] <jrib> tom_: in ubuntu, your ~/.profile will automatically add ~/bin to your PATH if it exists.  So just create ~/bin and use that.  (You'll need to login again after creating ~/bin for the first time)
[12:20] <comicinker> Debolaz: nautilus reports sometimes error messages when using webdav, however, as far as I can tell, even with this error messages it works when you use bookmarks or in the menu Places->Connect to server

[12:46] <seij0> i'm on ubuntu studio
[12:46] <jim_p> hax0r: then you cant enable desktop effects due to the hardware not being "real"
[12:46] <SlimeyPete> t_ubuntu: if you have an IDE hard disk, type "hdparm /dev/hda" (where /dev/hda is your hard disk device) and check that DMA is turned on. If it isn't then ubuntu may not fully support your motherboard.
[12:46] <seij0> oh wait i see it
[12:46] <Hosstest> that is because VMware makes your install "non specific" hardware.

[13:46] <pajamian> !cn | ailson
[13:46] <bhindi> can any body tell me how i can install tar.gz files
[13:46] <bhindi> plz
[13:46] <amanulla> ActionParsnip1:ohhhhh these links are having only comments no solutions there
[13:46] <ActionParsnip1> bhindi: you can decompress with tar zxvf ./file.tar.gz
[13:46] <pajamian> bhindi: what do you want to install, and why from a tarball?
[13:46] <ActionParsnip1> amanulla: there maybe stuff to try
[13:47] <bhindi> where
[13:47] <bhindi> and how
[13:47] <bhindi> i m new user
[13:47] <pajamian> bhindi: what do you want to install, and why from a tarball?
[13:47] <GZ_Hang> 黑龙江省鹤岗市
[13:48] <pajamian> bhindi: I usually find that when people want to install something from a tar.gz file they don't realize that they can usually jsut use synaptic and don't have to compile from source.
[13:48] <whileimhere> Hi again! Adding gnome-power-manager to my sessions cured my shutdown blues.
[13:48] <amanulla> ActionParsnip1:can i know for what reason the problem is occuring?
[13:48] <bhindi> ok
[13:48] <pajamian> bhindi: so I ask again, what do you want to install, and why from a .tar.gz file?
[13:48] <whileimhere> Here is another one that may involve the sessions again. Each time I boot up into gnome I am asked for the password to start the internet.
[13:48] <bhindi> 1st wat i can do 4 this
[13:49] <ActionParsnip1> amanulla: no idea dude, try sudo shutdown -r now
[13:49] <ActionParsnip1> bhindi: what are yuo trying to install?
[13:49] <bhindi> any file sir
[13:50] <pajamian> bhindi: why do you want to install a .tar.gz file?  it's usually not needed.
[13:50] <ActionParsnip1> bhindi: if its to install an application youo can use the repositorys with apt-get
[13:51] <bhindi> why sir mostly file r found in this formate pajamian
[13:51] <ActionParsnip1> bhindi: for example firefox or pidgin
[13:51] <bhindi> yap
[13:51] <amanulla> ActionParsnip1:this command is working
[13:52] <amanulla> and shutting down system with in give time
[13:52] <pajamian> bhindi: if you try to download a program off the website where it was written, yes.  But most programs you find that way are already available and can be installed with a simple command such as: sudo apt-get install programname
[13:52] <ActionParsnip1> amanulla: ok, ive seen this around but id make a script to reboot and shutdown for now. Ive not seen a fix yet
[13:52] <g33k_gir2> !java
[13:52] <pajamian> amanulla: I can't solve your problem directly, but I can tell you a workaround.
[13:53] <amanulla> ok
[13:53] <amanulla> tell me
[13:53] <pajamian> amanulla: you put the following command in a launcher: gksudo shutdown -h now
[13:53] <Pici> !software > bhindi
[13:53] <pajamian> amanulla: it will prompt for your passwork when you click it, and then shut down.
[13:55] <amanulla> pajamian:actually the problem is not here in which im working (ubuntu 8.04) but it was there in ubuntu 7.10 installed in free space(multi boot)
[13:55] <TheMafia> how do you tell what is causing "target device is busy" when trying to umount?
[13:55] <amanulla>  gksudo shutdown -h here h stands for what?
[13:55] <pajamian> amanulla: well, like I said, that is a workaround.
[13:55] <pajamian> amanulla: -h stands for halt, similarily you can use -r for reboot
[13:56] <comicinker> TheMafia: I always gues.
[13:56] <TheMafia> amanulla, -h is halt
[13:56] <amanulla> pajamian:will i t omeediately shutdown system
[13:56] <comicinker> TheMafia: mostly, it's an open terminal or the filemanager
[13:56] <amanulla> sorry immediately
[13:56] <nspyr> yes
[13:56] <pajamian> amanulla: yes, that is what the "now" is for
[13:56] <amanulla> ok
[13:57] <nspyr> TheMafia: are you in a console in the dir
[13:57] <amanulla> i think its better to use this command for shutting down instead of going for halt button which freezes the system
[13:57] <amanulla> ok
[13:58] <pajamian> amanulla: in the long run it's best to fix the problem, but this will help you until you can find a decent fix.

[14:02] <karuna_bdc> hey, can somebody explain the diff between extended logical and primary partitions? google isnt helping me :(
[14:02] <whileimhere> Hi when I start GNOME up it doesnt seem to remember the password I entered the last time for the network manager how can I get it to do so? I suspect something got deleted in the session manager but am not sure.
[14:02] <ActionParsnip1> karuna_bdc:  i'll do it in pm
[14:02] <erUSUL> karuna_bdc: wikipedia ;)
[14:03] <IntangibleLiquid> how do I modprobe a module automatically at boot?
[14:03] <pajamian> karuna_bdc: you can only have up to four primary partitions, so extended partitions was created (a long time ago) as a means of overcoming that limitation
[14:03] <erUSUL> IntangibleLiquid: add the name on a new line to /etc/modules file
[14:04] <IntangibleLiquid> erUSUL: thanks bro
[14:04] <erUSUL> IntangibleLiquid: for example "echo modulename | sudo tee -a /etc/modules"
[14:06] <amanulla> i need to configure internet connection in ubuntu can any one hel p me plss?

[14:11] <erUSUL> amanulla: do you have a router? a modem? how it is connected usb? wired? wifi?
[14:11] <pajamian> !in | amanulla (in case it's easier for you to communicate in a channel for India specifically)

[14:19] <amanulla> erUSUL:r you there?
[14:19] <pajamian> amanulla: are you sure that you need pppoe from the computer, though?  most modern modems take care of all the pppoe stuff in the modem.
[14:19] <naruto_pr0> can  any one tell me way firefox alaws start in offline mode ?
[14:19] <kbrosnan> naruto_pr0: wireless?
[14:20] <erUSUL> amanulla: yes

[14:20] <amanulla> what to do?
[14:20] <remoteCTR1> what do i need to have installed in order to be able to run a ssh -X without having gnome or something on that server?
[14:20] <pajamian> amanulla: the modem is the box with the antenna on it, there is a wire (an ethernet cable) running from the modem to your computer.
[14:21] <amanulla> yes my box is just similar to that
[14:21] <amanulla> with a antenna
[14:21] <amanulla> over its head
[14:21] <pajamian> amanulla: and you have a wireless connection to your ISP, right?

[14:22] <erUSUL> !pppoe | amanulla
[14:22] <pajamian> amanulla: you need to find out if you have to set up the pppoe from the computer, or if the modem does it.

[14:26] <leeping2008> Hey there, I need someone who has experience with GNU Screen. :)  How do I turn the screen "flashing" off - i.e. whenever I tab-complete and nothing shows up, or when I hit backspace when the command line is empty... the flashing is quite irritating
[14:26] <mich54> guys , i was trying to "apt-get install dhcpd" but it seems that the package is missing , any ideas ?
[14:27] <jrib> leeping2008: vbell off
[14:27] <ViperBorg> Haveing a problem with Ubuntu 8.04: I can't save the motd file. I keep getting a permissions error. How can I get around this? Thanks. (/etc/motd and /etc/motd.tail)
[14:27] <leeping2008> jrib, you're saying in the .screenrc?
[14:27] <jrib> leeping2008: yeah
[14:27] <leeping2008> jrib, but it was off when I opened the screen, and I inadvertently turned it back on with an unknown Ctrl+A command :(
[14:27] <leeping2008> and now I have many windows open in the screen, I'm reluctant to kill it
[14:28] <jrib> ctrl-a : vbell off
[14:28] <ViperBorg> mich54: Did you try sudo apt-get install dhcpd ?
[14:28] <jrib> leeping2008:
[14:28] <remoteCTR1> erUSUL: have you left or was my question so dumb?:)
[14:28] <mich54> ViperBorg, i used sudo -s first
[14:28] <leeping2008> jrib, hey thanks :)
[14:29] <Pizarro> Any backup tool for Ubuntu Server (to a CDR-W disk)???
[14:29] <erUSUL> remoteCTR1: no just multitasking... i was thinking that you may need some part of xlibs instaled to be able to use a graphical app remotely... but not sure which ones
[14:29] <erUSUL> !backup
[14:30] <lacuna_> Anyone know what I should set my timer frequency as when I'm recompiling the kernel?

[14:31] <Guest43438> there is a smoothwall router on my subnet somewhere is there a away of discovering it's ip address?
[14:31] <ViperBorg> mich54: I'd check for some updates in package manager. Last time I could not get drivers on a clean install for my video card, but was able to after running updates (it gets the new package locations that way). Did you give that a shot?
[14:31] <erUSUL> remoteCTR1: that's as far as i can go with you... have no experience with ssh -X
[14:32] <adam7> I've got my computer's clock set to localtime, but every time I boot, Ubuntu is convinced I have it set to UTC
[14:32] <remoteCTR1> erUSUL: well thanks for the attempt so far then:)
[14:32] <ViperBorg> mich54: Sorry... in update manager.
[14:32] <ViperBorg> Long night.
[14:32] <mich54> ViperBorg, i just made an update this morning :D
[14:32] <Guest43438> i got it by tracerouting to googl
[14:32] <ViperBorg> Ah.
[14:32] <pajamian> ok, I have to go, goodnight everyone
[14:33] <ViperBorg> mich54: At that point, I'd fall back to a google search. Sorry, man. Unless someone else here has some ideas, I'm tapped for that one.
[14:33] <remoteCTR1> Mervin: try this one: http://members.inode.at/451730/html/dsl_speed_test.html

[14:35] <ganes1> gnome crash problem...how can i set settings of failsafe to other profiles?
[14:35] <unavailable> intrepid >>  what exact command does the shut down button in the panel use?  not the log out button, but the shut down button
[14:35] <mich54> ViperBorg, thx anyway :)
[14:36] <unavailable> have asked in ubuntu+1 but no ans yet
[14:36] <leeping2008> Hey jrib.. I have another question.  Where can I load environment variables upon opening the bash shell, other than in .bashrc?  I tried ~/.profile but that does not work
[14:36] <erUSUL> leeping2008: what's wrong woth .bashrc?
[14:37] <leeping2008> erUSUL, here's the thing.  I have a long MOTD on my remote computer's account that I like to look at when I log on ... but I also frequently "jump" between the remote computer and local computer, in which case I don't want to redisplay the MOTD.
[14:38] <ganes1> is it possible to set failsafe settings to other accounts?
[14:38] <leeping2008> erUSUL, thus what I've done is to have an environment variable in .profile (export MOTD=1), and my .bashrc has if [ MOTD == 1 ]; then ~/bin/logon.py; fi.  When I invoke the "jump" command, I set MOTD to zero before invoking bash
[14:39] <leeping2008> I think my task is pretty specific anyway. :)  It's just that when I open new screens with GNU screen, or when I log in using xterm, apparently they read .bashrc but not .profile, so my MOTD variable is not read
[14:39] <Pizarro> I installed Ubuntu Server with OpenVPN, can anyone help me how to make it to work please (I've read a lot of online manuals but they are so complicated)
[14:40] <Jfrench> Pizarro: What is the problem?
[14:40] <jrib> leeping2008: ~/.profile will work, but you'll need to login again
[14:40] <Pizarro> Jfrench, well I just want to make my Ubuntu server to act as a VPN server
[14:41] <leeping2008> jrib, okay, thanks :)  My alternative is to set the MOTD variable in .bashrc to 1 - if the variable does not exist
[14:41] <Pizarro> Jfrench, the OpenVPN service is on, but I don't know how to go further
[14:41] <Jfrench> Is it not doing that? Or you don't know how? :)
[14:41] <erUSUL> leeping2008: .profile is only read on login shells
[14:41] <ShishKabab> Hi. How do I see (from the command line) which user runs a particular service?
[14:41] <Jfrench> Pizarro: oh ok
[14:42] <Pizarro> Jfrench, can you help me>?
[14:42] <Kriewelsch> Hi@all, have no sound. Anybody an idea? http://nopaste.php-q.net/47255
[14:42] <leeping2008> erUSUL, thank you :)
[14:43] <Jfrench> Pizarro: I don't think I can, ask again, im sure someone here will know.
[14:43] <leeping2008> My next nagging question is... how do I disable GNU screen hotkeys when I am in emacs?  I have the pageup/pagedown keys as toggles between screens, but I want to disable this behavior in emacs.
[14:43] <Pizarro> Anyhelp on OpenVPN with Ubuntu Server please?

[14:49] <ViperBorg> Haveing a problem with Ubuntu 8.04: I can't save the motd file. I keep getting a permissions error. How can I get around this? Thanks. (/etc/motd and /etc/motd.tail)
[14:49] <adam7> ViperBorg: are you using root?
[14:49] <Pici> !sudo | ViperBorg
[14:51] <stephen_> hi guys.. whats the name of the package in ubuntu that will allow a cube desktop.. was it xgl?
[14:51] <ViperBorg> adam7: Nope. How to I enable the root login so that I can do that. Sudo doesn't help me at all because the terminal doesn't have a program to go and edit the file.
[14:51] <erUSUL> !ccsm | stephen_
[14:52] <stephen_> erUSUL thank you!
[14:52] <erUSUL> stephen_: first enable the effects on System>Preferences>Apearance|Effects Tab
[14:52] <Pici> ViperBorg: nano will work fine to edit that.  sudo nano /etc/motd.tail
[14:53] <adam7> ViperBorg: you can use nano
[14:53] <ViperBorg> motd.tail and not just motd?
[14:53] <ViperBorg> I don't want to have the build info on the top there.
[14:54] <Ziroday> ViperBorg: I believe you need to edit /etc/motd
[14:55] <ViperBorg> ok
[14:55] <genius> Hello. I've connected External HDD thru FireWire. Does ubuntu support it?
[14:55] <Pici> ViperBorg: No. You need to read the manpage for motd.tail, that will explain the process of how the motd file is created.
[14:55] <Ziroday> ViperBorg: disregard what I said, it was wrong. Follow Pici
[14:55] <ViperBorg> Okay.
[14:55] <ViperBorg> Thanks, Pici and Ziroday.
[14:56] <Ziroday> genius: should do, can you see the drive in the file manager?
[14:56] <ViperBorg> And Adam7
[14:56] <adam7> I've got my computer's clock set to localtime, but every time I boot, Ubuntu is convinced I have it set to UTC. Was working fine at one point, and one day it switched. Anyone have any suggestions on switching it back? (setting system clock to UTC is not an option -- XP is installed)
[14:59] <genii> genius: If modules ieee1394 and sbp2 are loaded it should be able to understand firewire removable storage devices
[14:59] <corigo> I have second hard drive in my system, but secondary applications don't see it when I start-up until browse to it in places. Is this because it is not mounted at startup?
[14:59] <remoteCTR1> erUSUL: omg to log off and login again to ssh really helps:D
[14:59] <erUSUL> adam7: edit /etc/default/rcS
[14:59] <erUSUL> remoteCTR1: XD
[14:59] <erUSUL> !yay | remoteCTR1

[15:00] <erUSUL> adam7: !? that should be it...
[15:02] <adam7> erUSUL: that's what I thought :/
[15:02] <adam7> That's what Google thought, too.
[15:02] <genius> genii: no, not loaded. i've loaded this drivers and no luck. i don't see it with fdisk.
[15:03] <erUSUL> corigo: most likely
[15:03] <erUSUL> !fstab | corigo

[15:07] <grobda24> Freeaqingme, have you tried searching using Synaptic ?
[15:07] <jimqode> Freeaqingme, gnucash may suffice for small companies
[15:07] <icarus-c> is ubottu a bot or human with autoreplies
[15:07] <Ziroday> Freeaqingme: take a look at gnucash and eqonomize
[15:07] <Freeaqingme> grobda24, I did. I only found one for personal use called 'eqonomize'

[15:35] <ljsoftnet> ganes1, have you tried using it on a windows PC
[15:36] <netdevil> can mount the same usb stick using gparted
[15:36] <g33k_gir2> jrib: bugger. so there's no way to use a java website on a 64-bit machine?
[15:36] <waan> netdevil, usb devices dont need to be mounted, they are usually automatic
[15:36] <g33k_gir2> jrib: what about the IcedTea plugin?
[15:36] <ganes1> ljsoftnet, yes it works..i tried many mice its not working on ubuntu..
[15:37] <mgolisch> maybe use a 32bit chroot
[15:37] <mgolisch> and install java and firefox into that
[15:37] <netdevil> no it's not mounted
[15:37] <netdevil> checked
[15:37] <ljsoftnet> Wolf23, maybe its not compatible, is it new?

[15:37] <waan> netdevil, does it show up with "sudo fdisk -l"
[15:38] <TJ-42> If I install Ubuntu 64-bit, can I run *any* of my 32-bit applications if I install the 32bit libraries (linux32, ia32)?
[15:38] <ljsoftnet> ganes1, maybe its not compatible, is it new?
[15:38] <vergil> TJ: in theory, yes.
[15:38] <g33k_gir2> jrib: i have already installed the icedtea plugin, made openjdk the default java app :(

[15:51] <mistform> there are no mount points
[15:52] <waan> netdevil, what output do you get if you type "groups" ?
[15:52] <mistform> skylar, go to Synaptic Package manager and uninstall the ones you don't want/need
[15:52] <PolitikerNEU> openoffice.org2-writer I think
[15:52] <mistform> just search for "open office"

[16:00] <zaggynl> Wolf23: try googling avi to dvd ubuntu
[16:01] <Iris> I mean I have a problem :)
[16:01] <sipior> trupheenix: depends. do all mallocs() fail? what version of gcc are you running on each linux installation?
[16:01] <Iris> I mean I can't boot
[16:02] <trupheenix> sipior: i think i'm using the default 3.3.2 that comes with hardy. it doesn't fail on all mallocs. but on certain mallocs it fails while those run perfectly under RHEL.
[16:02] <Wolf23> zaggynl:  just give me the steps of how can i burn 5 episodes in 1 dvd player?
[16:02] <Iris> so now I have disk1 and disk2 the files that I want is inside disk1
[16:03] <Iris> anybody can help me ?
[16:03] <Iris> I'm struggling since yesterday to do that
[16:03] <PatrickMello> thx jim_p.. i have a problem with the shutdown or reboot process in ubuntu 7.4 release... i put few scripts to startup in rc2.d.. but after this, the reboot process stay very slow...
[16:03] <Iris> please
[16:03] <PatrickMello> around 15 minutes..
[16:03] <sipior> trupheenix: actually, i believe 4.1.3 is the default on Hardy. this may be a version 4/version 3 discrepancy. you haven't mentioned the version of the compiler you use on RHEL.
[16:04] <MessWithTheBest-> hi guys. I have a problem with the Disk Mounter app. It displays that i have a floppy drive, but i don't! I checked if the floppy is enabled in the BIOS but i found that i disabled. So why it shows that there is a floppy drive to mount??? When i try to mount it, it says it can't!
[16:04] <Iris> I really need help
[16:04] <trupheenix> lemme chk
[16:04] <trupheenix> sipior: it's 4.4.2
[16:04] <user__> Hi, I have a small gfx problem, but the real problem is that I don't know how to name it =) (So kinda hard to google for it)
[16:04] <trupheenix> even on RHEL
[16:04] <Iris> hello anybody can help me, please
[16:04] <zoed> Iris: do you want to copy the content from disk1 to disk2?
[16:05] <SkyLeach> hey all.  I'm curious if any of you know the proper package names for php-mysql and php-pgsql now.
[16:05] <trupheenix> sipior: 4:4.2.3 sorry
[16:05] <SkyLeach> most of the guides mention php4-mysql / php4-pgsql but when I try that I get the following:
[16:05] <Iris> zoed: not I want to take my files to an external hard drive and format the hd.
[16:05] <user__> Whenever I start X and enter gdm I first get a wierd "plasma" like effect for a few seconds around the edges of the screen, growing inwards, what is this called?
[16:06] <sipior> trupheenix: well friend, time to break out the debugger :-)
[16:06] <SkyLeach> "... has no installation candidate"
[16:06] <genius> Ubuntu does not see FireWire device. ieee1394 sbp2 -are loaded.
[16:06] <user__> (before entering the right resolution n screen mode)
[16:06] <genius> How to?
[16:06] <Iris> zoed:like I can see all the files but I can copy it.
[16:06] <zoed> Iris: plug in your external drive, then copy everything to that drive, via the UI.
[16:06] <jim_p> user__: it may be something hardware related
[16:06] <trupheenix> sipior: it works well inside the debugger
[16:07] <Iris> zoed:is already plugged but I can't do it, that's the problem.
[16:07] <Pici> SkyLeach: php5-mysql
[16:07] <jim_p> genius: is your device listed in lspci?
[16:07] <trupheenix> sipior: it's a multi process client server app.
[16:07] <Pici> SkyLeach: php4-mysql is only available on Dapper
[16:07] <zoed> Iris: ok, try to open nautilus as root: press ALT-F2 and enter "gksudo nautilus /". Then, in a normal window, open a folder on your drive and copy the files from the specially opened window to your drive.
[16:07] <SkyLeach> Pici I have php5 installed but my app is using php4
[16:07] <SkyLeach> and I already have those mods for php5 installed
[16:07] <etotheipi> When I run powertop, it shows thousands of interrupts per second from acpi; is there any way I can stop this, or see the cause of the interrupts?
[16:08]  * SkyLeach decides to try upgrading the app
[16:08] <SkyLeach> ya ever notice how even the most trivialthings wind up getting too effing complicated :p
[16:08] <Iris> zoed:I think I can't do that I'm running a live cd
[16:08] <genius> jim_p: i am not sure. can't see any ieee in lspci
[16:09] <zoed> Iris: yes, you can.
[16:09] <etotheipi> Never mind. Apparently a reboot was the solution (?!)
[16:09] <sipior> trupheenix: you might have better luck in a dedicated programming channel, i think.
[16:09] <jim_p> genius: paste the output in pastebin.com
