[09:03] <NeoMatrixJR24> bonesaw: a quick google search as suggested indicates your config file for vsftpd should be at /etc/vsftpd.conf

[09:03] <ompaul> orangefly, squid + dansguardian
[09:03] <firepig> I have windows drivers configured for it

[09:04] <MaxTPayne> nabend
[09:04] <freezey> is anybody familiar with ffmpeg?
[09:04] <cables> Memener, did you run the command? Tell me what the output is...
[09:04] <ompaul> !restricted | freezey

[09:04] <Memener> lol there was no output
[09:04] <firepig> I can get it to find the card in the hardware manager and even connect to my 2wire but I can't acces the internet with it
[09:05] <cables> Memener, did you try the one with Broadcom in it?
[09:05] <freezey> ompaul: it has to do with converting the file formats
[09:05] <bobbob1016> Hi all, I have a question about mounting a HFSplus partition.  I read around the forums, and they said you have to disable journaling in OSX.  But it is having problems, and only Edgy can see it.  I went to backup my home directory on it (plugged in through firewire and through a drive enclosure), but I don't have proper permissions on it, it is 501.  I try to chmod 777 but it says it's read only.
[09:05] <Memener> yeah
[09:05] <cables> Memener, "lspci | grep Broadcom"
[09:05] <cables> ok
[09:05] <cables> Memener, what card do you have again?
[09:05] <Memener> linksys WPC54g
[09:05] <[reed] > How do I change the balance of my speakers?
[09:06] <qmf_> does anyone have a link to a page that has an estimated size of the linux community? i'm writing something up and i cant seem to get any results on google
[09:06] <hume> anyone got advice on how to archive old mail folders when using imap and thunderbird?
[09:06] <cables> !wifi | Memener, firepig
[09:06] <ubotu> Memener, firepig: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[09:06] <ompaul> qmf_, tens of millions, or everyone online if you include those who use Google online
[09:07] <bonesaw> NeoMatrixJR24 ok i see it now, i just need to find out how to specify where it puts my files now
[09:07] <qmf_> ompaul: what do you mean?
[09:07] <qmf_> ompaul: i need something i can quote/link to.
[09:07] <webben> qmf_, What do you mean by "the Linux community"?
[09:07] <NeoMatrixJR24> bonesaw: no prob!
[09:07] <ompaul> qmf_, well in that case you can't cos there is no "static figure"
[09:08] <qmf_> webben: total linux users i guess, you're right i didn't word it right
[09:08] <qmf_> ompaul: that is why i said estimate
[09:08] <cables> what's happening with ompaul?
[09:08] <qmf_> ompaul: like when microsoft say they have x ammount of users.
[09:08] <webben> qmf_, Where do they say that?
[09:08] <ompaul> qmf_, there is no one figure that is canonical for this
[09:09] <Zaggynl> Jowi, reboot fixed it, I hope it won't crash again :/
[09:09] <qmf_> webben: microsoft? i dont know. it was an example of a company saying it has x ammount of users for a certain product when they have no exact way of knowing..
[09:09] <hume> anyone got ideas on how to store and archive mailfolders locally when using thunderbird and imap?
[09:09] <hitammanis> Hello

[09:11] <Zaggynl> Jowi, okay
[09:11] <Memener> do you have to config apt-get so it can find the packages? or is it already configed?

[09:15] <s0nix> Hi, anyone has tryed this Kate cppdevelop plugin:  http://kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=51805
[09:15] <firepig> my wireless network assigns me an ip adress but I cannot access the internet. Is this a driver problem I have the windows drivers installed with ndswrapper and it says that my hardware is missing while the hardware appears in the hardware manager
[09:15] <Stormx2> Is there a nice function to get the size of a remote file (using http). I think file size is sent by the headers?
[09:16] <s0nix> im trying to install it but no success... kate does'nt seem to detect it
[09:16] <cables> firepig, if you have an IP address, it should be working...
[09:16] <Memener> lol i have 50+ windows open on how to get my wireless working this is crazy.... :)
[09:16] <firepig> it should but its not
[09:16] <cables> Memener, you don't have a Broadcom chipset because the command I sent you didn't return anything.
[09:17] <guddy> okay... I'm back and still no second HD available
[09:17] <guddy> isn't there some kind of app that does this graphically?
[09:17] <Memener> its a linksys card
[09:18] <cables> Memener, I'm just saying that you're trying to install the firware cutter thingy when it's not even a broadcom chipset.
[09:18] <Memener> 1 sec
[09:18] <firepig> why would I have an ip assigned but not be able to access the internet?
[09:19] <guddy> any help?
[09:19] <hitammanis> Can someone please help?
[09:19] <guddy> I need to mount a second HD, formated for windows XP/vista
[09:19] <guddy> in ubuntu
[09:20] <bobbob1016> guddy:  Try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#Windows
[09:20] <Kajin> In Ubuntu Edgy, is there an easy way to make an iso out of an existing CD?
[09:20] <ompaul> !ntfs | guddy
[09:20] <ubotu> guddy: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:20] <erUSUL> Kajin: cat /dev/cdrom > image.iso
[09:21] <cables> Kajin, yep. Right click it, go to Copy Disc, and choose Image instead of whatever burner it has there.
[09:21] <bobbob1016> ubotu I was asking about the mac partitions, I can browse most of it, just not the stuff I want to recover because of permissions
[09:21] <hitammanis> Can anyone see me?
[09:21] <Kajin> Awesome, thanks, both of you. :D
[09:21] <cables> hitammanis, yep... what was your question?
[09:21] <hitammanis> cable: I am trying to boot Ubuntu in Qemu in Windows via Usb Pen Drive using the syntax : qemu.exe -L qemu/ -localtime -hda //./PhysicalDrive1, and it start to boot but when it get to "Mounting root file system" it is blank instead of ok, and then I get this msg: /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off.

[09:22] <pbureau> firepig,  are your DNS IP entered in /etc/resolv.conf ?
[09:22] <cables> hitammanis, can't help you there
[09:22] <firepig> I don't think so
[09:22] <Jowi> bobbob1016, ubotu is a bot
[09:22] <firepig> the ip isn't static
[09:22] <bobbob1016> oh, nm then, lol
[09:22] <pbureau> firepig, that could be why
[09:22] <hitammanis> okay, thanks.... anyone else
[09:22] <firepig> so what should I do then?
[09:22] <cables> doesn't Ubotu bug you when you say its name in a message, telling you it's a bot?
[09:22] <pbureau> firepig, but the DNS addreses are:)
[09:23] <cables> test: thanks for helping, ubotu.
[09:23] <cables> hmm, Ubotu isn't doing that any more
[09:24] <firepig> I get a permission denied with the /etc/resolv.conf
[09:25] <hitammanis> Do any one uses Qemu in Windows
[09:25] <bobbob1016> is there any way I can mount the drive and ignore permissions?
[09:26] <Memener> sorry it took so long but heres a screen shot
[09:26] <Memener> http://img398.imageshack.us/img398/2192/bahqc8.png
[09:26] <Belboz99> bobbob1016: you can mount it as a normal user
[09:27] <Milo-> is it possible to 'upgrading' from ubuntu to kubuntu with apt-get?
[09:27] <Subhuman> hi - is there any disadvantage to partitioning /etc ? just i want a system i can wipe clean but i'd like to keep my settings intact each time?
[09:27] <Subhuman> Milo-, yes" sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop"
[09:27] <bobbob1016> mount /dev/sdg3....  "Only root can do that"
[09:27] <Milo-> Subhuman thanks
[09:27] <Belboz99> compiling kernel right now, have to wait a second
[09:27] <AmaroqWolf> My graphics card only supports 24 bit color, and it can only do direct draw on 16 bit color. I think the answer to my problem of it being slow might be in setting my system to 16 bit color. Is there a way to do that, or possibly a way to make my display automatically revert to 16 bit whenever a program wants to use direct draw?
[09:28] <paiiiiii> What is the argument for aterm to make it transparant? :)
[09:28] <YuceL> bobbob1016: sudo mount /dev/sdg3....
[09:29] <hitammanis> quess not
[09:29] <SecrethX> wasnt there some sort of installer you could run on windows to install ubuntu?
[09:29] <IdleOne> SecrethX: yes
[09:29] <AmaroqWolf> Secreth, yeah there is. I ordered a free CD though.
[09:29] <SecrethX> IdleOne where can I find it?
[09:29] <bobbob1016> yeah, it's a USB drive, but if I sudo it, how is that mounting as a normal user?
[09:30] <IdleOne> SecrethX: google ubuntu.exe
[09:30] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolfI have it here too.. but well.. my desk is a mess and I cant find it
[09:30] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, lol. If you have a burner you can just burn an ubuntu CD for yourself.
[09:30] <YuceL> bobbob1016: u can later change permissions (i guess)
[09:30] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf but then i need to download it again ;)
[09:31] <hitammanis> Did I say something wrong
[09:31] <paiiiiii> Is it possible to get it "real" transparant in aterm, now it's showing the background... i want to show the items behind...
[09:32] <Skyrail> Anyone know of any good Audio Production programs?
[09:32] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, it'll have you restart and then it'll boot from that program I think. I don't remember what it said when I read that page. But if you want to delete the partition your windows is on, I don't think you'll be able to since the exe will be running off of that partition. If you want to wipe everything when you install, you'll need to boot from something that isn't on the hard drive methinks.
[09:33] <AmaroqWolf> Or at least not on the partition(s) you want to delete.
[09:33] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf I just installed windows ;) I want a multiOS just so my parents wont harras me minute after minute ;)
[09:33] <bobbob1016> I can't, I do chmod 777 on it, and it says "Read-only filesystem"
[09:34] <agliv5> Hi all :) trying to install qemu via https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsXPUnderQemuHowTo but there is no linux dir in /usr/src ... what's up with that?
[09:34] <bobbob1016> The forums I've read say to disable journaling in OSX, but I can't boot OSX to do that
[09:34] <SecrethX> IdleOne google just gives me all french pages :x
[09:34] <guddy> i belive my problem is that it is not a second partition... but a second hard drive
[09:35] <cberl1> (Just posted this on #edubuntu, but maybe someone here can help?)  Hi folks.  Got a bit of a problem that I need help figuring out:  I ran into Kernel Panic today, and I'm not sure how to get data about what happened.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?  I'm on Edgy, and all up to date.
[09:36] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX: Ah, I know how that is. How sad it is that we must support our computer illiterate relatives by placing the evil windows on our systems. You'd think ubuntu itself would be easy enough for people to use. My sister can use it with no problems, once I set up a few things for her like launchers for firefox and GAIM on her desktop. For my mom and her boyfriend, I still have my older windows computer. This comp is pure
[09:36] <AmaroqWolf> ubuntu, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
[09:36] <hitammanis> Please help please!!!
[09:36] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf well, windows comes in handy when it comes to playing games that I always used to play :)
[09:36] <Wortel> can someone help me with some basic questions in PM? please PM me if you got the time ;-)
[09:37] <Flannel> !ask | Wortel
[09:37] <ubotu> Wortel: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:37] <AmaroqWolf> SecrethX, that's true. There's also Wine though. Alot of windows things work when you install/run them under that.
[09:38] <Jowi> hitammanis, maybe you have better luck asking in #windows or in a qemu forum
[09:38] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf I know, but WineCVS.sh script just wont compile cedega cvs :( dunno why though need to look into that, but hell, now my parents are satisfied :).
[09:39] <SecrethX> AmaroqWolf I just found the cd :) see ya in a bit :)
[09:39] <hitammanis> Jowi: Tried #qemu it does not seem to be a qemu problem... ps. they were very helpfull
[09:39] <superdave132> I had bad install of the kubuntu desktop, uninstalled  most of it, except the start up screen can anybody help me get it back to the ubuntu loading screen?
[09:40] <hendry> /to/quit
[09:40] <ziadoz> can anyone tell if my wireless is any more likely to work if i install ubuntu over trying on a live disc?
[09:40] <hrnt> hmm... which package brings the boost library?
[09:40] <Jowi> hitammanis, I think most people here run ubuntu natively. or maybe run win98 in qemu under linux. not very likely the other way around...
[09:40] <ubunttvr> can any one tell me where to get the opera plugins ?
[09:40] <ubunttvr> i nedd the file dirrectory
[09:40] <guddy> when I try to manually mount the partition through the terminal (using the guide), I get the following: mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd1,

[09:40] <guddy>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try

[09:42] <juano__> Memener: yes
[09:42] <juano__> Memener: but you should so gksudo gedit
[09:42] <agliv5> ziadoz, my wireless worked both on the liveCD and the install... however linux sometimes doesn't like encryption even if the key is correct, so try connecting w/o encryption to see if that's the problem ;)
[09:42] <juano__> Memener: gksudo is for GUI apps
[09:42] <Jowi> yogi, again i ask - which application. are you using gnome? if you are that is probably somewhere in nautilus settings (nautilus handles the desktop in gnome)
[09:43] <Memener> ahh thx
[09:43] <yogi> Jowi:Sorry... it is Gnome, yes.

[09:44] <guddy> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4462/
[09:45] <guddy> this is the message I get

[09:52] <bubbz> Whats probally the best linux control panel besides webmin for linux
[09:52] <Jowi> Hoosteen, well, there isn't so many desktop environments to chose from, but a whole lot of good window managers (pekwm is a favourite for me) :)
[09:52] <dondanielo> Cyrus25081 : configured your network card as dhcp or static adress?
[09:53] <Hoosteen> ok...lets try this...what's the difference between a desktop environment and a window manager?
[09:53] <Secion8> Any Dual monitor support here for ati radeon 200
[09:53] <AmaroqWolf> I think a window manager is sort of like... a thing that tracks which windows are open and places them on your taskbar, and allows you to alt+tab between them.
[09:53] <Cyrus25801> dondanielo: configured as dhcp
[09:53] <melon> how does one install firefox 2 on Dapper? i downloaded the file.. but can't seem to figure out how to install it
[09:54] <ubunttvr> i have not install flgrx and google earth is very slow
[09:54] <Flannel> !firefox | melon
[09:54] <ubotu> melon: firefox is the default web-browser on Ubuntu. To install the latest version, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion Installing plugins: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxPlugins
[09:55] <lgc> Hello, I'm back after an almost-glorious Dapper Drake debut on my machine (I mean, with little collateral damage)! Alas...
[09:55] <AmaroqWolf> How can I reduce my color from 24 bit to 16 bit?
[09:55] <dondanielo> Cyrus25081  : tried to give it a static adress?
[09:56] <Jowi> Hoosteen, a window manager only handles the windows and keybindings normally. a desktop environment icludes the works - window manager, panel, app integration, desktop (with background changer) etc etc.
[09:56] <Cyrus25801> no i havent
[09:56] <ompaul> AmaroqWolf, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and only adjust the settings you want
[09:56] <Cyrus25801> dondanielo: how do i check what the current ip is
[09:56] <Jowi> Hoosteen, gnome uses metacity as a window manager by default. it is nicely integrated but it can be replaced.
[09:56] <lgc> does anyone know why I ended up with 2 versions of Open Office completely swiped out during the upgrade from Breezy to Dapper?
[09:56] <Wortel> Would someone mind helping me? im new too Kubentu and when i installed my Ati drivers for linux on my machine it works but after i cant go in the Display configuration module...

[09:57] <Occasus_> back for some trouble solving! booya
[09:57] <Secion8> Booya!
[09:58] <Hoosteen> Jowi, thanks a lot..that helps...some...lol..i'm so new to this i dunno what is what
[09:58] <Occasus_> how is everyone
[09:58] <firepig> wishing my wireless was working...
[09:58] <Jowi> Hoosteen, but this is offtopic for this channel - /join #ubuntu-offtopic if you don't need technical help.
[09:58] <Occasus_> firepig: whats up?
[09:58] <lgc> ompaul, you're an expert in installation problems...
[09:58] <Hoosteen> kk..i'll hop over there :)

[09:58] <firepig> my connection is displayed and I have an ip but I cannot connect to the web
[09:58] <ompaul> lgc, no I am not, got a specific question?
[09:59] <Occasus_> firepig: can you ping an external address?
[09:59] <firepig> I've checked iwconfig and it shows everything is fine but... no web
[09:59] <lgc> Do you happen to know why I ended up with 2 versions of Open Office completely swiped out during the upgrade from Breezy to Dapper?
[09:59] <nikitis> Is there any good GPS Navigational Software for Ubuntu?
[09:59] <Occasus_> firefig: you've obtained an IP from the DHCP server/
[09:59] <Occasus_> *?
[09:59] <xez> hello , can i broadcast a message to all tty's from root account to all users ?
[09:59] <kingace> hi, im updating ubuntu to edgy, and it just got to reloading apache 2 webserver.. and now i've seem to hit a stall
[09:59] <firepig> yes
[09:59] <kingace> im getting the error apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName
[09:59] <Occasus_> firepig: whats your default gateway set to
[10:00] <nikitis> firepig, what is it?
[10:00] <Jowi> Hoosteen, it will be second nature in no time. try a few. on a linux system you're not limited to what's in it as default :)
[10:00] <Occasus_> kingace: that's a warning, not a fatal error
[10:00] <ompaul> lgc, I would guess that you did some software that was not in the repos for the upgrade and you got burnt by that
[10:00] <hairulf1> Hellloo
[10:00] <Cyrus25801> dondanielo:i havent tried static ip. how do i check what the current ip is
[10:00] <AmaroqWolf> hmm, I did the autodetect thing. It's asking me things, ompaul. The settings it's autodetecting for me seem familiar. Now it's asking me about memory to be used by my video card. It says the i810 has very little of it's own memory, and could need to borrow system memory. How many kb should I put in this field?
[10:00] <kingace> Occasus: well, it's stalling there
[10:00] <firepig> im not sure where would I check and ill get back to you in a sec
[10:01] <Occasus_> kingace: check your logs /var/logs/apache2/ see if theres anything abnormal
[10:01] <matlock> firepig: Try to ping an ip:      ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:01] <ompaul> AmaroqWolf, do nothing until it gets to colour depth (yes that word does have a u in it))
[10:01] <nikitis> Question:  Is there any gps navigation software for linux?
[10:01] <yellow> hey guys is there something to quickly modify the names of files in a folder ?
[10:01] <lgc> ompaul, hmmm... It was a clean 'uninstall' and even a clean icon upgrade on the panel, but linked to nothing...
[10:01] <Occasus_> firepig: cat  /etc/network/interfaces  |grep gateway
[10:02] <ompaul> nikitis, apt-cache search gps
[10:02] <firepig> I was able to ping
[10:02] <AmaroqWolf> ompaul, use kernel framebuffer device interface? No is already highlighted.
[10:02] <Occasus_> okay then its dns
[10:02] <Occasus_> firepig: ping www.google.com :)
[10:02] <Quessir> I got some strange thing with nvidia driver, it compiles and runs fine, but after restart modprobe cannot locate it. Any ideas?
[10:02] <nexousNET> Is anyone firmiliar with GTKwifi?
[10:02] <ompaul> AmaroqWolf, so that is a default - the only thing you want to change is numbers if you can help it
[10:02] <hairulf1> So, the default spellchecker (I use Gnome), how do I set that up to include one more language? Is it enough downloading some package wit synaptic?
[10:02] <ziadoz> whats the minimum hard disk space ubuntu needs?
[10:02] <LinuxHelp> Lets say I have a module installed in /usr/src/linux/modules/kqemu Now how do I build that module?
[10:03] <ompaul> lgc, without the machine being in front of me I am not willing to make further guesses
[10:03] <Slasher> 2gb according to the cd case
[10:03] <lgc> ompaul, what would be better to install, the gnome version or the GTK one?
[10:03] <firepig> so what do I do with the dns?
[10:03] <ompaul> ziadoz, 2.3 but if you want to be able to use it do about 5
[10:03] <Occasus_> firepig: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[10:03] <Occasus_> tell me what your dns server is
[10:03] <Cyrus25801> how does one check your ip address
[10:03] <lgc> ompaul, I suppose there's never a perfect upgrade...:)!
[10:03] <ompaul> lgc, well I should do gnome
[10:03] <Quessir> Cyrus25801: ifconfig
[10:04] <Occasus_> sorry dudes, i have to go!
[10:04] <Cyrus25801> Quessir: thanx
[10:04] <firepig> search gateway.2wire.net
[10:04] <firepig> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:04] <lgc> ompaul, gnome is it, then. Thanks.
[10:04] <nexousNET> Whats another way to get my linksys card working in ubuntu(gnome), ive tried using gtkwifi but no luck.
[10:04] <matlock> firepig: Are you using a router?
[10:04] <firepig> yes
[10:05] <Quessir> nexousNET: Have you tried wifi-radar?
[10:05] <comradeC> is there a howto on how to get grub working again if you had to install windows again
[10:05] <nexousNET> Quessir: I installed the package, but didn't know where to go from there.
[10:06] <deafboy> amarok keeps replicating itself and the process "gdb" is hogging my cpu? what's going on?
[10:06] <xtknight> deafboy: it seems to have crashed, and gdb is performing a backtrace (programmer debug info)
[10:06] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, How many hard drives do you have?
[10:06] <comradeC> 1
[10:06] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, And how many partitions?
[10:06] <comradeC> 3
[10:06] <comradeC> windows swap and ext3
[10:06] <Quessir> nexousNET: In gnome: Application menu > Internet > Wifi radar
[10:06] <LinuxHelp> Ok..
[10:07] <LinuxHelp> type "sudo grub"
[10:07] <deafboy> xtknight: how can i completely kill amarok it's "sleeping" but it has about 25 processes
[10:07] <nexousNET> Quessir: i didn't even see that there, thanks
[10:07] <comradeC> i cant get into linux though
[10:07] <comradeC> cause of windows
[10:07] <xtknight> deafboy: killall -9 amarok
[10:07] <comradeC> i reinstalled windows and it just boots right up into windows
[10:07] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, boot disk? DSL? Knoppix? Ubuntu?
[10:07] <comradeC> ubuntu
[10:07] <LinuxHelp> Insert the Ubuntu CD
[10:07] <comradeC> i used the ubuntu cd to install it
[10:07] <Quessir> Anyone has nvidia driver working in Edgy?
[10:07] <comradeC> inside windows?
[10:07] <comradeC> or boot from the live cd
[10:07] <hasta2003_> my laptop freeze after wake up from stand by.. what can I do?
[10:08] <LinuxHelp> Reboot, with the CD in your drive
[10:08] <matlock> firepig: And the ip of your router is <IP_ADDRESS>?
[10:08] <hasta2003_> Acer Aspire 1356LCi
[10:08] <Slasher> hmm
[10:08] <Slasher> am i still on?
[10:08] <deafboy> xtknight: what is the '-9' parameter?
[10:08] <AmaroqWolf> ompaul, I've made the change. Can I attempt to play the games now, or should I ctrl+alt+backspace first?
[10:08] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, before you close your IRC..
[10:08] <Slasher> brb
[10:08] <nexousNET> Quessir: do you know if wifi-radar connects to the network on startup?
[10:08] <comradeC> LinuxHelp, and what do I do after it boots sudo grub? in the live cd enviroment?
[10:08] <peresko> Thunderbird question: Autospell Bugs anyone?
[10:09] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, you need to remember to type: "sudo grub" and then "root (hd0,2)" and the "setup (hd0)"
[10:09] <ompaul> AmaroqWolf, log out and back in - ctrl alt bksp is not for every day use
[10:09] <Quessir> nexousNET: Not sure, I think yes
[10:09] <AmaroqWolf> Okay.
[10:09] <Cyrus25801> how does one check what your default gate way is
[10:09] <ZiG> Does anyone have a walkthrough for installing video drivers?
[10:09] <peresko> thunderbird crashes when autochecking the spelling. It consumes 99.7 % cpu....it hangs
[10:09] <xtknight> deafboy: it sends signal 9, which is a force close signal.  without the -9 it may not end as forcefully.
[10:09] <AmaroqWolf> ompaul, okay.  I want clone mode
[10:11] <comradeC> LinuxHelp, nah I get it
[10:11] <Alarm> hello, i try to change the swappines. but i get the following error: salarm@rockpc:~$ sudo echo 30 >  /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
[10:11] <Alarm> bash: /proc/sys/vm/swappiness: Permission denied
[10:11] <deafboy> xtknight: either way it fixed the problem :) what is process nfsd?
[10:11] <peresko> zombies aren't consuming resources...my thunderbird is!!!
[10:11] <peresko> any help?
[10:11] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, I'm impressed :)
[10:11] <xtknight> deafboy: NFS daemon, the network file system server
[10:11] <Quessir> nexousNET: It shall display something like "connected (ip)"
[10:11] <nexousNET> Connected to "mynetworkname...." ip(None)
[10:11] <comradeC> LinuxHelp, do i have to include a spot for the windows to boot too though hd1?
[10:12] <ZiG> secion8, I'm in the same boat with my ATI card.. are you using a default driver right now?
[10:12] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, worry about that when you're in linux
[10:12] <LinuxHelp> comradeC I mean, after grub works
[10:12] <Quessir> it shall display ip
[10:12] <xtknight> peresko: do you have a real problem or do you just like saying zombie?
[10:12] <nexousNET> Quessir: do I have to create an ip for it? 192.168.1.# is what all my pc's use
[10:12] <Secion8> Zig, I use the fglrx drivers
[10:12] <LinuxHelp> comradeC, you just add a line to /boot/grub/menu.lst if neccessary
[10:12] <peresko> xtknight: YES i have a real problem and everything I said about zombie's IS TRUE
[10:13] <zaggynl^laptop> Can anyone help me with this odd sound problem? I hear the drum sound at the login screen, after that, I can't get sound working, alsamixer won't even start
[10:13] <peresko> xtknight: a zombie consumes around 140 bytes for a exit status
[10:13] <Quessir> if you click edit, you'll get options screen, adjust it to your network, maybe your AP does not accept connection
[10:13] <Flannel> !sound | zaggynl^laptop
[10:13] <ubotu> zaggynl^laptop: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[10:13] <ZiG> secion8, Oh, sorry, I wouldn't know about that then.
[10:13] <peresko> xtknight: but my problem is different. My thunderbird consumes 90% cpu when it autocheck spells
[10:13] <dondanielo> !mp3

[10:14] <LinuxHelp> Lets say I have a module installed in /usr/src/linux/modules/kqemu Now how do I build that module?
[10:14] <xtknight> peresko: hmm.  no idea
[10:14] <Secion8> Zig, Did you get dual working with "ati" in the xorg.conf
[10:14] <zaggynl^laptop> Flannel, hmyes, gstreamer-properties gives me a working test sound, but the volume app doesn't work, nor does alsamixer, aplay or speaker-test
[10:14] <xtknight> peresko: does anything else consume that much during spellcheck, like firefox, xchat, or gaim
[10:15] <ZiG> secion8, No, I haven't messed around with that yet. I can't seem to get any drivers working right now.
[10:15] <nexousNET> Quessir: It's taking a long amount of time to load a page, so I'm not sure if will Timeout due to server, or Page not found, due to no connection.
[10:15] <peresko> xtknight: nope, only thunderbird, when i start typing, it completly hangs
[10:15] <xtknight> peresko: file a bug perhaps
[10:15] <peresko> xtknight: i will
[10:16] <linuxnewbie756> i have a file, ~~.x86. how can i run it? its supposed to update punkpuster
[10:16] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: sh ~~.x86
[10:16] <nexousNET> Quessir: My AP?
[10:16] <Cyrus25801> i'm trying to speed up my  internet connection. i've set a static ip address. but that hasent helped. any other advice anyone. it was always faster on xp
[10:16] <linuxnewbie756> cannot execute binary file
[10:16] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: dns config the same?
[10:16] <AmaroqWolf> Well, my video card certainly seems faster now. Graphics are still slightly slow though. And now all of my sounds are playing slightly faster with a slightly higher pitch.
[10:17] <nihilocrat> linuxnewbie756: chmod +x ~~.x86
[10:17] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: type "file ~~.x86" and report the results
[10:17] <Flannel> Cyrus25801: static IP helps bootup time, not faster interblags.  You might try turning off ipv6
[10:17] <nihilocrat> linuxnewbie756: then ./~~.x86
[10:17] <Quessir> nexousNET: check options, maybe you need to set wifi options
[10:18] <nexousNET> Quessir: I have already changed the options.
[10:18] <Quessir> nexousNET: Ok, is your connection encrypted?
[10:18] <nexousNET> Quessir: No no security.
[10:18] <Cyrus25801> xtknight: i dont follow could you explain
[10:18] <nexousNET> Quessir: Would gtkwifi interfere with it?
[10:19] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: if you're using a static ip i assume you have the dns servers also entered in manually?
[10:19] <Quessir> don't know...
[10:19] <nexousNET> Quessir: well i don't need it, I'm removing it.
[10:19] <Quessir> you got static ip, or dhcp?
[10:20] <nexousNET> not sure.
[10:20] <brann> hello. i've not been able to install the flash plugin for firefox so far... I'm using ubuntu 6.10 64bit. What should I do?
[10:20] <Slasher> hmm my head is about to explode lol
[10:20] <Cyrus25801> xtknight: yes
[10:20] <nexousNET> is DHCP, the same IP every connection time?
[10:20] <Slasher> no
[10:20] <xtknight> nexousNET: typically you have the same ip for a lease time, but then it can change (not that it always does)
[10:20] <nikitis> Does anyone know how to make sure a garman usb gps is working in ubuntu?
[10:20] <Quessir> that possible
[10:20] <Slasher> dynamic host something protocol
[10:20] <[miles] > good evening #ubuntu
[10:20] <xtknight> nexousNET: my cable modem has had the same ip for a year and it's dhcp, but it has changed twice or so
[10:21] <xtknight> dynamic host configuration protocol
[10:21] <steel_lady> pregunta: I was using apache server with win. now in linux I am not sure how to access its options, how can I see which folder it uses for www folder?
[10:21] <Slasher> thats it
[10:21] <xtknight> [miles] : hallo
[10:21] <Slasher> lol
[10:21] <nexousNET> I'm not sure, because through the router, every computer is <IP_ADDRESS>(1,2,3,++++)
[10:21] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: well i was going to suggest that.  sorry i'm not sure how to make your net faster
[10:21] <Slasher> anyone else good @ wireless/ndiswrapper?
[10:21] <xtknight> Cyrus25801: try the following
[10:21] <xtknight> !ipv6 | Cyrus25801
[10:21] <ubotu> Cyrus25801: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[10:21] <Flannel> steel_lady: /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ has the sites files
[10:21] <Quessir> if you're the only AP user, probably you'll get always the same ip
[10:21] <Slasher> before my compaq lappy goes out the window lol
[10:21] <peresko> !info metapixel
[10:21] <ubotu> metapixel: generator for photomosaics. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.1-1 (edgy), package size 42 kB, installed size 148 kB

[10:22] <Cyrus25801> xtknight: thanx
[10:22] <peresko> metapixel is awesome guys
[10:22] <[miles] > guys, I've got Kubuntu 6.10 running here, and I installed Bind9 pacakge, configured it, and it works. However, it does not start on boot. It shows in the rc's that its set to start, but does'nt.. have to start it manually.. iirc, Ubuntu 6.10 and up changed something with rc scripts... anyone who can advise me how to fix this please?
[10:22] <towlieban> has anyone here run ubuntu under vmware ?
[10:22] <nexousNET> Quessir: this laptop wouldn't be the admin of it.
[10:22] <Slasher> k, i managed to get it working on suse, but MS joined up with that
[10:22] <DrZeus_> steel_lady: it is not /var/www? check it
[10:22] <Slasher> with novell
[10:22] <nexousNET> twolieban: me.
[10:22] <Slasher> and i got some ubuntu CDs not long ago
[10:22] <xtknight> towlieban: i run windows under vmware under ubuntu
[10:22] <towlieban> hey nexousNET im a first time ubuntu user but ive used linux for a while
[10:22] <Flannel> [miles] : 6.10 uses upstart instead of init
[10:22] <Slasher> so i installed that, and thats what i am on right now, however my wireless card wont work
[10:23] <linuxnewbie756> niholocrat,  i don't know what to do with the .x86 file
[10:23] <xtknight> Slasher: ok.  so what have you tried so far?
[10:23] <peresko> btw, are there any vmware tools for ubuntu?
[10:23] <towlieban> is it possible to run beryl/xgl in ubuntu under vmware ?
[10:23] <xtknight> Slasher: to get it working on ubuntu
[10:23] <Slasher> erm eek
[10:23] <Slasher> lol
[10:23] <[miles] > Flannel: ah, yes
[10:23] <Slasher> im on 6.06 btw
[10:23] <xtknight> towlieban: i don't believe so.  possibly with better 3d acceleration support in the guest
[10:23] <[miles] > Flannel: so how do I control that please?
[10:23] <Flannel> towlieban: #ubuntu-effects will be able to answer that.  I imagine... not.
[10:23] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: type "file ~~.x86" and report the results
[10:23] <Flannel> [miles] : I'm not exactly sure... but.
[10:23] <steel_lady> DrZeus, does it have some options where I can change what it uses for www folder?
[10:24] <linuxnewbie756> you mean type this?
[10:24] <xtknight> Slasher: you'll have to prefix your messages with "xtknight" somehow so i see them easily
[10:24] <Flannel> !upstart | [miles] , this page has lots of documentation

[10:24] <linuxnewbie756>  file /home/matt/Data/Programs/Army/System/pb/pbweb.x86
[10:24] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: yes
[10:24] <towlieban> wow ubuntu is a nice distro
[10:24] <Flannel> steel_lady: in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ is a file, in it is two things you'll need to change to modify that.

[10:25] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: chmod +x ~~.x86 && ./~~.x86  will execute it
[10:25] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: let me make that clearer
[10:25] <ubunttvr> should i install ati drivers ,cast you votes now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[10:25] <xtknight> Slasher: you'll have to prefix your messages with "xtknight" somehow so i see them easily
[10:25] <ubunttvr> or should i stick with radeon ones
[10:25] <Slasher> ok
[10:25] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: chmod +x /home/matt/Data/Programs/Army/System/pb/pbweb.x86

[10:25] <Slasher> xtknight: i tried this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Windows_Wireless_Drivers_.28Ndiswrapper.29
[10:26] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: those two commands ^^
[10:26] <Flannel> Slasher, xtknight, ubuntuguide is unsafe.  use the ubuntuwiki instead
[10:26] <xtknight> ah ok
[10:26] <mindstate> ubunttvr, i stuck with the radeon and im fine
[10:26] <xtknight> Slasher: you said you're on dapper right?
[10:26] <Flannel> !ndiswrapper | Slasher
[10:26] <ubotu> Slasher: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:26] <Slasher> xtknight: yep
[10:26] <ubunttvr> mindstate can you do me a favoure
[10:26] <xtknight> Slasher: what wireless adapter?
[10:26] <ubunttvr> a huge favour
[10:26] <Slasher> ubotu: i will check that ty
[10:27] <xtknight> !bot | Slasher
[10:27] <ubotu> Slasher: I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[10:27] <mindstate> ubunttvr, yes?
[10:27] <xtknight> :)
[10:27] <ubunttvr> install googleearth
[10:27] <xtknight> !thanks
[10:27] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[10:27] <ubunttvr> mindstate find out if its too slugish to use
[10:27] <linuxnewbie756> xtknight, it works, thanks. so, why did i have to chmod it?
[10:27] <Slasher> xtknight: grr i forgot, how do i find out?
[10:27] <nikitis> ubunttvr, does garman gps work with google earth?
[10:27] <nexousNET> My wireless isn't working :-(
[10:28] <ubunttvr> sudo apt-get install googleearth
[10:28] <xtknight> linuxnewbie756: +x means give execution permissions.
[10:28] <mindstate> ubunttvr, what do you mean..which driver?
[10:28] <cchance> Where is the image located that is on the default gnome Login Screen?
[10:28] <xtknight> Slasher: is it pci or usb?
[10:28] <Slasher> xtknight: pci i would think since its built into m laptop
[10:28] <ubunttvr> mindstate  its an application
[10:28] <linuxnewbie756> oh, so anything like that that doesn't work, +x will fix it, right? .run sometimes and .x86?
[10:28] <eisma> where/how do i download/install new themes for ubuntu?
[10:28] <ubunttvr> mindstate sudo apt-get install googleearth
[10:28] <Alzi2> How to add an entry to the menu in Konqueror that will convert FLV files for me using ffmpeg?
[10:28] <paiiiiii> Hey, how can i assosiate .avi with the application "vlc"?
[10:29] <paiiiiii> so it allways opens in VLC
[10:29] <ubunttvr> eisme gnome look
[10:29] <dondanielo> eisma :  check gnome-look.org
[10:29] <nexousNET> In Connection properties, im getting signal strength 84% but it's disconnected? any ideas?
[10:29] <xtknight> cchance: /usr/share/gdm/themes perhaps
[10:29] <dyrne> cchance: sudo gdmsetup
[10:29] <towlieban> im using xchat-gnome. is there a way to connect to more than 1 server at a time ?
[10:29] <cchance> xtknight thanks
[10:29] <eisma> dondanielo then how do i install themes?
[10:29] <xtknight> Slasher: correct, type "sudo lspci -vv" and post it on !pastebin
[10:29] <xtknight> !themes|eisma
[10:29] <ubotu> eisma: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[10:29] <eisma> dondanielo i was actually there, downloaded a theme, extracted it, then what?
[10:29] <cchance> dyrne, im not liiking for the setup
[10:29] <mindstate> ubunttvr, ok ill try
[10:30] <xtknight> eisma drag the tar .gz file into the themes preferences dialog
[10:30] <ubunttvr> ok thank you
[10:30] <haxality_> towlieban: ctrl-t IIRC
[10:30] <dondanielo> eisma : no  need to extract
[10:30] <akruth> i made my gnome-panel transparent, but the "show desktop"-icon has a white background?!
[10:30] <ubunttvr> remove it and replace it
[10:30] <towlieban> haxality_: i tried that and nothing happened
[10:30] <mindstate> ubunttvr, theres no package for googleearth in any of my repo's heh
[10:30] <haxality_> towlieban: is there an option for 'open new server tab' anywhere in the menu on the top of the screen?
[10:31] <towlieban> no
[10:31] <Slasher> xtknight: k 1sec
[10:31] <FLiPeR> Well anyone had I/O erros on his disk making it inaccessible until restart using torrent clients........?
[10:31] <ubunttvr> ermm try synaptic
[10:31] <haxality_> none of them say anything like that?
[10:31] <towlieban> when i was using xchat under kde i could open a new server tab
[10:31] <xtknight> FLiPeR: it wouldn't happen to be the kernel data corruption torrent bug would it?
[10:31] <haxality_> wow, I'm kind of baffled
[10:31] <haxality_> towlieban: if you hold for like 2 minutes I'll install it and find it
[10:31] <eisma> it says that it is not a valid format when after i drag it into the themes manager
[10:31] <xtknight> FLiPeR: not sure if the ubuntu kernel versions are affected
[10:31] <towlieban> haxality_:  ok
[10:31] <nexousNET> Anyone know why wifi-radar would say I'm connected, but it can't view websites?
[10:31] <dondanielo> eisma : is it a .tar.gz ?
[10:31] <xtknight> eisma: what file format is it.  tar gz, tar bz2.. ??
[10:32] <DigitalNinja> I'm having trouble with a belkin 4 port KVM. My mouse is all jerky. I can't use it at all. However, if i plug it into the computer it work fine. Any ideas?
[10:32] <xtknight> i think bz2 works too?
[10:32] <FLiPeR> ill read about it ..one min ....
[10:32] <haxality_> nexousNET: can you ping websites from a terminal?
[10:32] <Slasher> !pastebin
[10:32] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:32] <eisma> tar bz2
[10:32] <nexousNET> haxality_: is it just 'ping domain.com' ?
[10:32] <eisma> xtknight tar bz2
[10:32] <Slasher> nvm
[10:32] <Slasher> http://pastebin.com/877013
[10:32] <haxality_> nexousNET: yes, I usually do 'ping www.google.com' minus the quotes
[10:32] <Slasher> xtknight: http://pastebin.com/877013
[10:33] <xtknight> eisma: extract it to /usr/share/themes  (for example if the tarbz2 contained a dir called ThisTheme), then the files would be located under /usr/share/themes/ThisTheme.  type 'gksu file-roller' to start a archive manager in super user mode so you can extract to /usr/share/themes
[10:33] <nexousNET> haxality_: okay, i'm not getting a response, it's just flashing a typing cursor.
[10:33] <paiiiiii> Hey, how can i assosiate .avi with the application "vlc" so all .avi opens with "VLC"
[10:33] <nexousNET> haxality_: okay, there it goes, "ping: unknown host google.com"

[10:33] <xtknight> Slasher: you should use this pastebin instead but it's cool for now
[10:33] <xtknight> !pastebin|Slasher
[10:33] <ubotu> Slasher: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:33] <haxality_> ah
[10:33] <haxality_> ok.
[10:33] <Milo-> what can cause IRC-protocol not to work on ubuntu?
[10:33] <eisma> xtknight could you walk me through extracting it?
[10:33] <haxality_> towlieban: hit ctrl-n
[10:33] <Slasher> yeah pastebin.com was taking ages to load but when i pasted into the ubuntu one that one loaded lol
[10:34] <xtknight> eisma: did you try my instructions?
[10:34] <ubunttvr> mindstate maybe you dont have restricted modules installed?
[10:34] <xtknight> eisma: first type 'gksu file-roller'  in the terminal
[10:34] <haxality_> nexousNET: that means either you aren't connected to the network, or the network isn't connected to the internet
[10:34] <Milo-> networking works just fine but can't connect to any IRC networks :/
[10:34] <xtknight> Slasher: taking ages here too.  mind if you repost into ubuntu pastebin?
[10:34] <eisma> it said extract command not found
[10:34] <towlieban> haxality_: ahh i see it automatically opens a new server tab
[10:34] <Slasher> sure
[10:34] <xtknight> eisma: see above
[10:34] <soundray> mindstate: I think PLF provides it
[10:34] <nexousNET> haxality_: well, I'm on a windows machine connected to the same network, and i'm online :P
[10:34] <soundray> !plf | mindstate

[10:34] <haxality_> yeah, towlieban, sometimes apps are a little too user-friendly
[10:34] <Slasher> xtknight: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4474/
[10:34] <towlieban> haxality_: in the past you had a choice
[10:34] <nexousNET> haxality_: so how would I go about troubleshooting the problem in ubuntu?
[10:35] <eisma> xtknight ok now what?
[10:35] <dyrne> Milo-: you behind a firewall? like at work or campus?
[10:35] <haxality_> nexousNET: ok, you're using wifi-radar, right?
[10:35] <nexousNET> haxality_: yes
[10:35] <xtknight> Slasher: looks like Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03)    on a HP laptop
[10:35] <Milo-> dyrne should be set to bridged
[10:35] <haxality_> nexousNET: what are the stats of the wireless network? WEP, hidden SSID, MAC filter, etc?
[10:35] <xtknight> eisma: alright now open the tar bz2 with file rolle
[10:35] <towlieban> haxality_: you could connect to a server in the existing tab or open a new server tab and connect to the server in there
[10:35] <ubunttvr> use the paste bin for christ sake
[10:35] <haxality_> towlieban: yeah, I used xchat for a looong time
[10:35] <eisma> xtknight how do i do that?
[10:35] <nexousNET> haxality_: theres just changes to the SSID/networkname
[10:35] <Slasher> xtknight: yeah its a hp compaq presario r3000
[10:35] <xtknight> eisma: file->open in file roller
[10:36] <towlieban> haxality_: actually ive used linux for a long time but am switching to os x
[10:36] <nexousNET> haxality_: and it runs on channel 1
[10:36] <xtknight> Slasher: make a mental note: 'bcm43xx kernel module' ;)
[10:36] <haxality_> nexousNET: ok, so it has no WEP/WPA/whatever and it's just mostly standard
[10:36] <nexousNET> haxality_: correct.
[10:36] <haxality_> nexousNET: are you using GNOME, or another WM?
[10:36] <Slasher> ok
[10:36] <nexousNET> haxality_: gnome
[10:36] <haxality_> towlieban: if I had a mac I would use OSX probably :P
[10:36] <Milo-> dyrne but nothing has changed in last 2 hours when he last connected in, except, he installed kubuntu-desktop using apt-get
[10:36] <haxality_> nexousNET: are you averse to using NetworkManager?
[10:36] <eisma> xtknight i dont see anything in there. i have to go to class though, thanks for your help anyway
[10:36] <towlieban> haxality_:  i dont have a mac but im using os x ;)
[10:36] <haxality_> nexousNET: it's way better than wifi-radar in my experience
[10:36] <xtknight> eisma: ok
[10:37] <haxality_> towlieban: heh, I would, except none of my hardware is supported by osx86
[10:37] <towlieban> haxality_: im using osx86 on my gateway laptop....
[10:37] <nexousNET> haxality_: I'm not sure, Don't really know where to go.
[10:37] <towlieban> haxality_: how old is it ?
[10:37] <haxality_> towlieban: 3 or so years, but it has a weird video card
[10:37] <towlieban> oh yea
[10:37] <paiiiiii> Hey, how can i assosiate .avi with the application "vlc" so all .avi opens with "VLC"?
[10:37] <MacLinuxMaster> Hi, good boys
[10:37] <xtknight> Slasher: now pastebin 'sudo lshw -class network'
[10:37] <thug> i just downloaded java jpkg jre-6-linux-i586.bin  now i try to create the deb file but i get a error No matching plugin was found
[10:37] <towlieban> haxality_:  i just bought my comp not too long ago. i want to sell it though so i can buy a macbook pro
[10:38] <nexousNET> haxality_: I don't really care what it uses to connect, as long as it works and doesnt disconnect every minute
[10:38] <thug> any onw knows how to get any of the required plugins ? j2sdk.sh j2re.sh j2sdk-doc.sh j2sdk.sh j2se.sh sun-j2re.sh sun-j2sdk-doc.sh sun-j2sdk.sh ?
[10:38] <haxality_> one sec nexousNET
[10:38] <akruth> is there any way to make a panel totally transparent including the arrows?
[10:38] <haxality_> I'm still here
[10:38] <nexousNET> haxality_: okay
[10:38] <haxality_> :P
[10:38] <thug> java-package its installed already
[10:38] <haxality_> ok
[10:38] <MacLinuxMaster> I'm having a system lockup while erasing cdrw. Someone have ?
[10:38] <haxality_> nexousNET: do this in a term: 'sudo aptitude install network-manager-gnome'
[10:38] <Slasher> lol it told me im trying to spam the pastebin
[10:39] <Slasher> xtknight: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4476/
[10:39] <xtknight> :O
[10:39] <tuskernini> can anyone HELP with a USB port that only reads SOME hardware?
[10:39] <xtknight> Slasher: odd.  seems to be disabled, but driver is loaded
[10:39] <haxality_> nexousNET: also, you need to do 'sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces' and comment out everything except the lines with 'lo' in them
[10:39] <nexousNET> haxality_: do i need the internet on it?
[10:39] <xtknight> Slasher: "*-network:0 DISABLED"
[10:39] <haxality_> nexousNET: oh, crud
[10:39] <haxality_> heh
[10:39] <Milo-> What could be the problem as IRC-protocol all suddenly decided to not work, after installing kubuntu-desktop with apt-get.. everything worked fine before the installation.
[10:39] <haxality_> one second, let me see if I have the .deb
[10:39] <soundray> tuskernini: it's probably USB 1.1
[10:39] <xtknight> Slasher: type this and see what happens 'sudo ifconfig eth1 up'
[10:39] <nexousNET> haxality_: okay.
[10:39] <haxality_> nexousNET: try opening wifi-radar and removing the network from the list, then re-adding it
[10:40] <haxality_> nexousNET: also, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:40] <agliv5> Greetings :) I'm  trying to compile qemu and it says I have to use gcc 3.x, I have both gcc-3.3 & gcc-3.4 but neither seem to work with ./configure -cc=gcc-x ??? Can anyone help please?
[10:40] <tuskernini> soundray, i have two memory keys and it only reads one... and it reads an external laptop hard drive?
[10:40] <nexousNET> haxality_: 6.06, and it wont remove the network lmfao
[10:40] <xtknight> agliv5: sure you even need to specify -cc?
[10:40] <nexousNET> haxality_: there it goes.
[10:40] <haxality_> nexousNET: yeah, wifi-radar is finnicky
[10:40] <haxality_> nexousNET: try adding it back, in my experience that magically fixed anything wifi-radar had a problem with
[10:40] <xtknight> agliv5: try `sudo apt-get install build-essential`  and then just `./configure` with no paramters
[10:41] <Thug-N-Me> no one knows how to get from jpkg jre-6-linux-i586.bin   deb file ????
[10:41] <tuskernini> soundray, it does not read the mouse or webcamera or the other usbstick
[10:41] <Milo-> What could be the problem as IRC-protocol all suddenly decided to not work, after installing kubuntu-desktop with apt-get.. everything worked fine before the installation. anyone? :(
[10:41] <tuskernini> soundray, any ideas? testing ideas?
[10:41] <Slasher> SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory
[10:41] <soundray> tuskernini: is it a "mini-hub", ie. without its own power supply?
[10:41] <nikitis> Thug-N-Me, don't think it's been developed yet
[10:41] <xtknight> Slasher: erm....totally wasn't expecting that one :D
[10:41] <nikitis> Thug-N-Me, just use synaptic to get java 6
[10:41] <tuskernini> soundray, i have no clue it is on a laptop ibm t40
[10:41] <xtknight> Slasher: could you pastebin the whole thing>?
[10:41] <nexousNET> haxality_: do i have to set ip and all?
[10:41] <tuskernini> soundray, the bottom port
[10:42] <Thug-N-Me> nikitis it will only give me sun-java5-jre sun-java5-plugin
[10:42] <haxality_> nexousNET: no, you should be able to use DHCP
[10:42] <agliv5> xtknight, yes it says warning: gcc looks lie gcc 4.x ... looking for gcc 3.x ... ./configure: 372 Syntax error: Bad fd number....
[10:42] <xtknight> agliv5: looks like a problem in the configure script to me
[10:42] <soundray> tuskernini: oh, and the top one works?
[10:42] <Vandalay> mb u need an gcc-compat pack
[10:42] <tuskernini> soundray, yes it works for everything i plugged in so far
[10:42] <nexousNET> haxality_: i tried pinging, unknown host google.com again
[10:43] <haxality_> hmmmm
[10:43] <haxality_> alright
[10:43] <haxality_> here's what we will do
[10:43] <haxality_> close out of wifi-radar
[10:43] <agliv5> xtknight, qemu can not be compiled with gcc 4.x according to their hompage...
[10:43] <Vandalay> just use fedora
[10:43] <Slasher> xtknight: thats all i got m8
[10:43] <MacLinuxMaster> I'm having a system lockup while erasing cdrw. Someone have ?
[10:43] <MacLinuxMaster> When I blank a cdrw with cdrw my system beacame locked until it end
[10:43] <haxality_> nexousNET: go to 'system > administration > networking' from the gnome menu
[10:43] <xtknight> Slasher: hmm.  can you pastebin 'dmesg'?
[10:43] <nexousNET> haxality_: okay
[10:43] <MacLinuxMaster> Any tips ?
[10:43] <haxality_> nexousNET: open up the config page for your wireless card, and fill in the various options
[10:44] <xtknight> agliv5: symlink /usr/bin/gcc to /usr/bin/gcc-3.4 instead
[10:44] <haxality_> nexousNET: let me know if anything I say goes over your head
[10:44] <soundray> tuskernini: I suggest you buy an external hub with a power supply, and connect that to the top port. Everything will work with that -- except possibly the webcam. Webcams sometimes insist on being connected directly to the mainboard hub.
[10:44] <xtknight> agliv5: sudo rm -f /usr/bin/gcc && sudo ln -s /usr/bin/gcc-3.4 /usr/bin/gcc
[10:44] <nexousNET> haxality_: in the config, whats my key type suppose to be?
[10:44] <Thug-N-Me> nikitis dead ?
[10:44] <haxality_> leave it blank
[10:44] <Milo-> hey, i need some help here, HOW can I fix my friend's ubuntu that can't connect to IRC at all after installing Kubuntu-desktop package with apt-get
[10:44] <nexousNET> haxality_: and for connection settings, do i want it on static IP, or DHCP?
[10:44] <haxality_> nexousNET: if your network doesn't use WEP, you don't need to fill in that box
[10:44] <haxality_> nexousNET: and DHCP unless you use a static IP and know all the info
[10:45] <Jowi> MacLinuxMaster, sounds strange. same if you use a frontend such as graveman?
[10:45] <barry> What the story with libasound2 I can't even install gdb now because of this dependancy why is edgy's apt-get dependency's so bloody broken?
[10:45] <haxality_> nexousNET: basically DHCP is automagic IP and static is.. static
[10:45] <nexousNET> haxality_: No, not WEP KEY, the Key Type "Hexadecimal or Plain ASCll"
[10:45] <xtknight> barry: libasound2 in the repos is fine for me
[10:45] <haxality_> nexousNET: just leave it, it doesn't care unless you put something in the 'key' box :P
[10:45] <tuskernini> soundray, but there is now way you think i can test the port? thanks for the info.. i was hoping it is a driver problem.. the hub is a pain if i travel and need a mouse and cam...
[10:45] <nexousNET> haxality_: okay.
[10:45] <nexousNET> haxality_: "Activating interface "wlan0"
[10:45] <xtknight> barry: paste the whole error of installing gdb
[10:46] <soundray> barry: it isn't. Please post the output from 'sudo apt-get -f install' on the pastebin
[10:46] <tuskernini> soundray,  i have a hub..
[10:46] <haxality_> nexousNET: hopefully it will connect and get an IP
[10:46] <barry> what version do you have I have 1.0.11-7ubuntu3, having this stops me from installing pretty much everything
[10:46] <matthew1429> I'm trying to set up a firewall
[10:46] <matthew1429> and I had installed firestarter, but then had problems
[10:46] <nexousNET> haxality_: where is that going to come up with connection status and IP?
[10:46] <matthew1429> then installed lokkit
[10:46] <xtknight> barry: that's the official version.
[10:46] <matthew1429> and now have these issues

[10:46] <Milo-> IRC-clients are unable to connect to ANY irc-networks.. how to fix? everything worked just fine before installing Kubuntu-Desktop package.
[10:46] <barry> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[10:46] <barry>   ufoai: Depends: libasound2 (> 1.0.12) but 1.0.11-7ubuntu3 is to be installed
[10:46] <barry> E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).

[10:46] <sacater> type /j #sacater
[10:46] <haxality_> nexousNET: basically, it should drop you back to the config page again, and then you should try pinging again
[10:46] <Milo-> cmon i dont want to spam this channel with same stuff for over and over again
[10:46] <tuskernini> does anyone perhaps know how to TEST a USB port... ?
[10:46] <nexousNET> haxality_: okay
[10:46] <xtknight> barry: use pastebin next time, but 'ufoai' is obviously not from the repos.
[10:46] <Milo-> IRC-clients are unable to connect to ANY irc-networks.. how to fix? everything worked just fine before installing Kubuntu-Desktop package.
[10:47] <barry> sorry lads I'll pastebin i forgot
[10:47] <Slasher> xtknight: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/4481/
[10:47] <xtknight> barry: you might have to compile ufoai since the deb you got is for a newer version of ubuntu or debin
[10:47] <MacLinuxMaster> How is your behaviour while erasing a cdrw ? Wour system lockup ?
[10:47] <mariusz> ello
[10:47] <MacLinuxMaster> How is your behaviour while erasing a cdrw ? Your system lockup ?
[10:47] <xtknight> barry: perhaps you need to overwrite the libasound2 on your system with a newer one which is a little risky.
[10:47] <xtknight> Slasher: bcm43xx: Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not availabl e or load failed.
[10:48] <barry> I've tried that, it stops the sound from working in ufo2
[10:48] <rly_> how can I run XP inside ubuntu?
[10:48] <cjl7> Hi all, I'm trying to figure out my routing table and why it doesn't work. I have two nic's on different networks. Both have a default gw. But whatever I do I can't seem to use the "other" gw?!
[10:48] <soundray> tuskernini: you could run 'tail -f /var/log/syslog' and follow the messages while you plug your various devices into the upper and lower socket.
[10:48] <barry> so I reverted back and than it works
[10:48] <ryanakca> can someone please help me debug my latex doc? It's a proposal I have to hand to my principal in the morning... but... I can't seem to get the accents to work (LaTeX yaps about math mode... )..
[10:48] <FLiPeR> xtknight:u think that 6.06 LTS kernel is affected with that bug?about the torrs...
[10:48] <Slasher> hmm
[10:48] <xtknight> Slasher: ok, you need the firmware for your card.  that is contained in the windows drivers.  you use something called 'bcm43xx-fwcutter' to grab it
[10:48] <tuskernini> soundray, thank you
[10:48] <xtknight> FLiPeR: no i dont think so
[10:48] <nexousNET> haxality_:  same, unknown host google.com
[10:48] <barry> having gdb is more important than sound now tho
[10:48] <Slasher> i have the windows drivers on my desktop if they are any use
[10:48] <barry> why does ubuntu have its own version of libasound2?
[10:48] <FLiPeR> URL to read about it?...Forum at ubuntu?
[10:49] <soundray> ryanakca: I can try, but I think we're offtopic. Do you want to pm me?
[10:49] <mariusz> i'm looking for a future, somebodys help me??
[10:49] <xtknight> barry: well then try this.  'sudo dpkg --purge --force-all libasound2 ; sudo dpkg --purge --force-all libasound2-dev'.
[10:49] <xtknight> barry: then grab the latest versions from somewhere
[10:49] <barry> ok thanks

[10:50] <rich__> ok guys i just lost my sound on ubuntu for some reason.  All i did was start up quake3 and the computer froze.  Now I have no sounds and when I reboot my volume contol is crossed out saying something to the effect of either not have the gstreamer plugins or soundcard not found any suggestions?

[10:51] <barry> enjoy buddy
[10:51] <agliv5> xtknight, please explain the symlink a bit more... the manpage for sysmlinks isn't really all that great...
[10:51] <soundray> tuskernini: what I'm saying is that this could be a driver issue.
[10:51] <xtknight> Slasher: basically use fwcutter to grab the firmware from the windows drivers.  there's docs around, and fwcutter is in repos  ' sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter'

[10:58] <marshall> ikonia: i asked where
[10:58] <siikah> on the appropriate port i mean
[10:58] <ikonia> gnome-look.org
[10:58] <ikonia> or just google
[10:58] <mindstate> marshall, try google..
[10:58] <farruinn> siikah: you could, you know, just try that
[10:59] <siikah> farruinn: I'm not talking about myself.. he has a problem connecting to irc servers...
[10:59] <farruinn> siikah: ah, sorry ;)
[10:59] <ikonia> I've already told him to try
[10:59] <siikah> ok

[11:00] <ikonia> Milo-: try telneting
[11:00] <paiiiiii> Hey, how can i assosiate .avi with the application "vlc" so all .avi opens with "VLC"?
[11:00] <farruinn> siikah: /ignore #ubuntu JOINS PARTS QUITS makes it much more readable
[11:00] <dyrne> paiiiiii: its magic
[11:00] <pianoboy3333> Can anyone here help me build the latest alsa drivers? I have a sigmatel chip on an hda intel card

[11:00] <scv> hahaha
[11:00] <siikah> farruinn: thanks for the tip, but it didn't work. xhcat.
[11:00] <mindstate> Milo, is the computer ur on now on the same netconnection as the box that wont work?
[11:00] <scv> secret?
[11:00] <paiiiiii> ...the magic
[11:01] <scv> to dead?
[11:01] <farruinn> siikah: I don't know what the command is for that, but it's probably got something similar
[11:01] <kralos> anyone here got an EPIA mobo to work with ubuntu?
[11:01] <scv> s/dead/die
[11:01] <marshall> does anybody know where to get better OO.o 2 icons? the default icons are horribly ugly
[11:01] <adamonline45> How do I test if a user running a script is root?
[11:01] <Milo-> mindstate nope
[11:01] <kralos> adamonline45: w
[11:01] <brann> hello. could someone help me install nspluginwrapper? I have downloaded the .rpm, done a sudo alien -i ns*.deb, but there's nothing in /usr/lib ... where should i check ?
[11:01] <Milo-> this computer is my local computer
[11:01] <siikah> farruinn: yeah probably. I've done it sometime before. haven't had time to do it yet
[11:01] <Jowi> kralos, yep, you need to compile the kernel to support the c3 cpu (686 is not enough)
[11:01] <Milo-> and that other computer is my friend's computer with almost fresh ubuntu installation
[11:02] <mindstate> Milo-, is there other computer on a router?
[11:02] <Milo-> hmm
[11:02] <Milo-> for some reason
[11:02] <Milo-> the problem just solved
[11:02] <kralos> Jowi: so just download the Dapper 6.06.1 src and follow a how to?
[11:02] <siikah> adamonline45: from within a script or checking which user "something" is running by ?
[11:02] <rich__> !gstreamer
[11:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gstreamer - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <dyrne> paiiiiii: i dont really know gnome but if i recall you just right click on one of the files and select "Open with other applicaton"
[11:02] <Jowi> kralos, ubuntu should work with the 386 kernel but you really should compile it yourself for c3
[11:02] <dyrne> paiiiiii: then there should be an option to set from now on
[11:03] <Jowi> kralos, not sure there is a howto for dapper.
[11:03] <u0392185> Hey everyone, I need some help
[11:03] <rich__> hmm my sound just quits just like that :(  works on boot up but not after I log in
[11:03] <kralos> Jowi: i can install fine but as soon as i get to the bootloader trying to load the kernel img it locks up
[11:03] <kralos> no logs or anything
[11:03] <Jowi> kralos, I created one for breezy but it is waaaaay outdated (don't think you need the kernel patch for one). if you want to have a look it is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ViaEpiaDriHowto (I'm not supporting it :))
[11:04] <kralos> i386 that is
[11:04] <adamonline45> siikah: From within a script.  I just have a simple if then statement that should check if the script is bein run as root, and if not it'll exit. I don't know what to put, exactly... something like if [ %u != "root" ] ; then...
[11:04] <Jowi> kralos, oh really? the 386 locks up?
[11:04] <u0392185> Does anybody know how to add a printer onto the parallel port manually?
[11:04] <kralos> yep
[11:04] <Jowi> kralos, did you disable acpi?
[11:04] <kralos> tried edgy, and warty too
[11:04] <u0392185> Are there special printer codes for different printers?
[11:04] <kralos> nope
[11:04] <mindstate> Milo-, its working?
[11:04] <Jowi> kralos, you should disable acpi.
[11:04] <Clarus> Can someone help me with my NIC, Ubuntu sees it, however I can't recieve any DHCP info.  The whole setup works fine in OS X though.
[11:04] <kralos> Jowi: can u disable it in the installer?
[11:04] <Milo-> mindstate i think so :o
[11:05] <adamonline45> siikah: I'm just trying to exit the script instead of letting it try to run everything in it (which you need to be root for) and throwing a ton of errors if you're _not_ root when you run it... :)
[11:05] <u0392185> My parallel port isn't showing up anywhere
[11:05] <mindstate> Milo-, weird lol
[11:05] <aoirthoir> join #phpmyadmin
[11:05] <kralos> Jowi: the thing is debian sarge runs fine
[11:05] <siikah> adamonline45: if [ "`id -u`" -eq 0 ] ; then echo "I'm root!" fi
[11:05] <siikah> root = 0
[11:06] <marshall> does anybody know where to get better OO.o 2 icons? the default icons are horribly ugly
[11:06] <adamonline45> siikah: I'll try it out, thanks :)
[11:06] <siikah> np
[11:06] <Jowi> kralos, yeah. i think (this is a long time ago for me) you use "pci=noacpi" (think that the F7 page in the installer say that) and you might want to disable the framebuffer as well...
[11:06] <windmill> Hi I would like to print from an Edgy laptop to a printer on a windows machine, what do I need to install?
[11:06] <Jowi> kralos, never tried sarge :/
[11:07] <u0392185> windmill, shouldnt you install the appropriate printer drivers from linuxprinting.org?
[11:07] <Jowi> kralos, but there was a guy in here just a day ago doing the install for a epia M board. maybe you should ask him.... let me try to remember the name
[11:07] <dyrne> !samba| windmill
[11:07] <ubotu> windmill: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[11:07] <u0392185> they have network drivers and tutorials there
[11:08] <dyrne> windmill: i believe smbprint but im not familiar with it
[11:08] <rich__> is there a command to configure your sound card in terminal?  for some reason I have lost my sound in gnome
[11:08] <Odd_Bloke> Ubuntu is loading my sound cards in varying orders at boot. I only want to use one of them. How do I go about either forcing an order or disabling the unused sound card?
[11:08] <paiiiiii> I'm trying to find out which mp3 player that have the same look as xmms buy its gray/silver and i think the name starts with an "a".
[11:08] <siikah> paiiiiii: audacious
[11:08] <kralos> Jowi: I used to have a M10000 and it was the same
[11:08] <paiiiiii> yes, thanks
[11:08] <kralos> kept lockin up
[11:08] <matthew1429> if I do an install with dapper will it automatically "upgrade" to edgy?
[11:08] <mindstate> paiiiiii, is it beepmediaplayer?
[11:09] <windmill> dyrne, I do have samba installed, and swat, I'll check out the links
[11:09] <Jowi> kralos, proud owner of that motherboard :)
[11:09] <pbureau> Odd_Bloke, remove the modprobe driver for that sound card
[11:09] <adamonline45> paiiiiii: audacity?
[11:09] <paiiiiii> no, its audacious
[11:09] <Odd_Bloke> pbureau: Which config file?
[11:09] <kralos> Jowi: My PD is just a twin eth version fo the same board basically, but no s-vid etc
[11:09] <paiiiiii> thanks anyway
[11:09] <matthew1429> when you install older ubuntu will it auto upgraded to edgy through the updates manager?
[11:09] <adamonline45> paiiiiii: oh okay :)  knew audacity, not audacious :)
[11:09] <kralos> i'm using it as a router
[11:09] <siikah> bmp merged into audacious :)
[11:10] <paiiiiii> hehe
[11:10] <siikah> and bmpx
[11:10] <siikah> :)
[11:10] <limetang> Wouldn't that be forked?
[11:10] <matthew1429> hello?
[11:10] <matthew1429> seems like a simple question
[11:10] <siikah> yeah probably. i'm not too hot with the correct terms
[11:10] <siikah> matthew1429: don't expect to get help. be grateful if you do.
[11:10] <matthew1429> silkah: good pint
[11:10] <Odd_Bloke> matthew1429: Yeah, seriously, we failed to read it the first time. Bugging us again is bound to work.
[11:10] <unska> is there a apt for avi, mpeg and wmv decoder?
[11:11] <rich__> matthew1429: its advised that you didn't do it that way
[11:11] <rich__> although you can do it
[11:11] <limetang> sudo apt-get install vlc :P
[11:11] <rich__> ive heard alot of people having issues when upgrading from dapper to edgy
[11:11] <limetang> Can't remember if it's universe.
[11:11] <matthew1429> you are very correct in reminding me that this is totally voluntary
[11:12] <Odd_Bloke> unska: Or Google for win32codecs...
[11:12] <pbureau> Odd_Bloke, well you need to know which modules those parts of soundcard load (probably looking into dmesg or /etc/messages and then run modprobe -r drivername and if that works then you could do a permanent rmmod drivername. it should stop it from loading
[11:12] <siikah> I've been in the deep of the debian-unstable deps-hell. I REALLY do not recommend that you do it that way. it _might_ work.
[11:12] <paiiiiii> How can i know which version of ubuntu im using? "etch", "sid", "dapper", "edgy"?
[11:12] <rich__> matthew1429: did you get what i said?
[11:12] <FragUPlenty> sup
[11:12] <cafuego_> paiiiiii: We;;, not etch or sid.
[11:12] <rich__> knock knock
[11:12] <pbureau> paiiiiii, 6.06 = dapper 6.10 = edgy
[11:12] <matthew1429> I'll just bite the bullet and reinstall and rich: yes I did
[11:12] <paiiiiii> okay
[11:12] <FragUPlenty> hey does anyone know what glibc is
[11:12] <rich__> ok
[11:12] <FragUPlenty> and how to update it
[11:12] <rich__> jsut checking
[11:12] <cafuego_> paiiiiii: 'lsb_release -a' should tell you.
[11:12] <matthew1429> but reinstalling seems to be easier than figuring out what I put in the pastebin
[11:12] <rich__> you can try updating it by sudo apt-get dist-upgrad
[11:13] <rich__> but like i said not recommended :)
[11:13] <FragUPlenty> ok
[11:13] <matthew1429> <--- still noob
[11:13] <Odd_Bloke> pbureau: Won't it just be modprobe'd next startup?
[11:13] <matthew1429> okay
[11:13] <rich__> ubuntu is a good dist
[11:13] <siikah> matthew1429: why not install edgy if you're going to reinstall anyways?
[11:13] <pbureau> FragUPlenty, its a library for compiling programs with gcc, as for updating you could do apt-get install <nameof module> it shoudl upgrade if tehre is one
[11:13] <pbureau> Odd_Bloke, rmmod removes the drivername.o file.. hard to reload it afterwards
[11:13] <rich__> the new ubuntu still in beta is fiesty correct?
[11:13] <pbureau> yes
[11:14] <Odd_Bloke> pbureau: OK, thanks.
[11:14] <matthew1429> silkah: good point... i'm just frustrated and figured trying something new would be the idea
[11:14] <matthew1429> cya later guys!
[11:14] <Jowi> kralos, can't remember his name atm... but if you use the alternate cd you should be able to disable acpi and the framebuffer if needed. I clearly remember acpi locking up my system.
[11:14] <FragUPlenty> it says error couldnt find package
[11:14] <cchance> On my computer start up i get the error "The greeter application appears to be crashing. Attempting to use a different one." Any one know how toy fix?
[11:15] <pbureau> FragUPlenty, libgc is not the complete/proper package name for it
[11:15] <FragUPlenty> ok
[11:15] <FragUPlenty> so how do I find that out
[11:15] <cchance> Then it goes into the "default login" An aplication box that has the Gnome Image on the left
[11:15] <paiiiiii> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/error <- how can i fix that? :S
[11:15] <paiiiiii> :(
[11:16] <pbureau> FragUPlenty, if you use gnome, goto system-admins-synaptic in settiung enable all repos and then do a search for libgc I bet you will will alot of variants, but yours will have a green square (installed) look for a newer version on the list
[11:16] <paiiiiii> oh, hold
[11:16] <Odd_Bloke> pbureau: I can't modprobe -r, as it's being used. lsmod doesn't list what's using it...
[11:16] <limetang> matthew1429, it won't automatically upgrade.
[11:16] <Moniker42> what does STFB stand for?
[11:16] <zsakr> nyone know how to use the text installer on ubuntu 6.10?
[11:16] <Clarus> can someone please help me connect my ubuntu box to the internet? or even my dhcp router?
[11:16] <FragUPlenty> ok
[11:16] <crazy_penguin> Good night all!
[11:16] <FragUPlenty> thanks mate
[11:16] <paiiiiii> http://www.coreinet.com/error <- How can i fix that error?
[11:16] <limetang> But it should theoretically be very easy to upgrade (although you're likely to run into problems)
[11:17] <xtknight> agliv5: still around?
[11:17] <b0ef> ehlo
[11:18] <cchance> On my computer start up i get the error "The greeter application appears to be crashing. Attempting to use a different one." Any one know how to fix?
[11:18] <pbureau> Odd_Bloke, use -e
[11:18] <FragUPlenty> got it thanks
[11:18] <zsakr> how do i run the text installer?
[11:19] <jrib> !alternate | zsakr
[11:19] <ubotu> zsakr: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD.

[11:41] <whonicca> kalifornia909, find an answer to that let me know =)
[11:41] <whonicca> id also like to know
[11:41] <whonicca> another reason why i have media center still on my other drive
[11:41] <quaal> whats the command to check your kernel
[11:41] <quaal> uname
[11:42] <quaal> uname -r
[11:42] <whonicca> any benefits from compiling ur own kernel vs generic
[11:42] <whonicca> noticeable
[11:42] <soundray> whonicca: it's a learning experience
[11:42] <whonicca> ive done it many times on gentoo
[11:42] <quaal> whonicca, i think people only compile their kernel if some piece or hardware isnt supported in the current kernel
[11:43] <whonicca> but was just wondering if theres any noticeable performance gains
[11:43] <quaal> unless you just like fuckin around
[11:43] <cchance> :'(:'(:'(:'(:'(
[11:43] <whonicca> nah i dont
[11:43] <whonicca> but on gentoo u were kind of forced to do it
[11:43] <soundray> !language | quaal
[11:43] <ubotu> quaal: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:43] <limetang> I would presume that you could get slight performance increases, whonicca
[11:44] <soundray> whonicca: you have to have at least 30% speed gain to notice it in desktop usage. You won't get that from compiling your own.
[11:44] <quaal> whonicca, yea i'm pretty sure gentoo is a text based install right
[11:44] <quaal> with every option put in manually
[11:44] <whonicca> yes
[11:44] <whonicca> they do have genkernel which generates a generic kernel
[11:44] <quaal> yea
[11:44] <whonicca> but that kernel is crap
[11:44] <suv> hehe
[11:44] <whonicca> u definitely feel performance gains there from compiling ur own
[11:45] <suv> not only the kernel....
[11:45] <cchance> Come on no one can help me with a gnome error?
[11:46] <soundray> whonicca: the ubuntu stock kernel does some runtime optimization. Check out this link from ubotu:
[11:46] <suv> you need a fast gcc too
[11:46] <soundray> !generic | whonicca
[11:46] <ubotu> whonicca: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[11:46] <limetang> Can bigdesktop or Xinerama support 3 screens?
[11:46] <kriel> okay. i know x86_64 works using 2 processor cores. so, if i install x86_32, would i only be using one core? (effectively only using half of my processor?)
[11:46] <suv> ???
[11:46] <whonicca> thanks ill read up on that
[11:46] <icebird> can i post my sources list somewhere so someone can see what is going on

[11:50] <HP_Vue> I clicked the link, but I do not understand the givin instructions, "gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/bad_list" What does that mean>
[11:50] <suv> are we still need the search engines nowadays?
[11:50] <shatrat> MarcoPau, Im not an expert on the whole software mixing thing, you might check the multimedia forums at ubuntuforums.org, there is a sticky post about diagnosing sound problems.
