[00:00] <killikelly> i've been through all the tutorials on the wiki nothing
[00:00] <Uplink> beli: there is no where to begin
[00:00] <IndyGunFreak> killikelly:  intel wireless generally "just works" w/ ubuntu... so its likely something you're doing wrong.. I'm not really familiar w/ Intel though.
[00:00] <viator> ill try the google
[00:00] <killikelly> the hp laptop has a touch button for the wifi
[00:00] <beli> Uplink?
[00:00] <VastHappyDude> can anyone suggest a program that works with the itunes shared libraries?
[00:01] <IndyGunFreak> killikelly: thats prorbably irrelevant, so does my acer, but it doesn't work under linux.
[00:01] <killikelly> but the button stays red, i have no real idea, i installed ubuntu 8.10 64bit

[00:01] <IndyGunFreak> killikelly: 64bit drivers are sometimes shaky... but you should be able to find it
[00:02] <killikelly> i've done everything besides posting on the forum
[00:02] <IndyGunFreak> well..

[00:10] <kkathman> I'm having problems with Flash in Firefox not playing the audio...this seems to work just find when I am in KDE (same computer) any ideas?
[00:10] <fryguy> I just upgraded to 8.10 and my second monitor won't turn on anymore.  ATI Radeon 2400 XT graphics card, restored my existing xorg.conf that I backed up, with no effect.  I'm also stuck at 800x600 resolution.  What can I do?
[00:10] <dexharv> I used Wubi to install Ubuntu in Vista.  I loaded it up and the wireless card isn't picking up any networks, so i looked to Help - which is telling me to open something (Administration > Network) that doesn't exist.  Help?
[00:10] <killerKC> can you use a wireless ps2 controller on a pc
[00:10] <beli> Uplink: you really have to learn to solve the problems yourself...i know howto solve it ;)
[00:10] <fosco_> DarkKnight: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f install && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[00:10] <killerKC> withiut an adpter
[00:10] <killerKC> <<is slow
[00:10] <Uplink> beli: yea im a real noob. thats why im asking for help dude =]
[00:11] <beli> Uplink: and i am willed to help ypou...but i wont give complete solutiojs...just hints what to do
[00:11] <shadowwulf> question, i have a ubuntu update that has gone for 24 hours updatng ... is there a safe to end it without screwing up my install or should i just let it go
[00:11] <hvgotcodes> where do i put backgrounds so that the gnome background selector sees them?
[00:11] <beli> s/solutiojs/solutions/
[00:11] <Uplink> beli: so give me the first hint baby! >:D
[00:11] <fryguy> hvgotcodes: nowhere, just click the "add" button right in the dialog
[00:11] <killerKC> im tryon to connect a 2.4ghz wierless ps2 controler to mt wireless card. and ur the noob?
[00:11] <hvgotcodes> fryguy: thanx
[00:11] <|Jason8|> killerKC: what the hell are you trying to do?
[00:11] <|Jason8|> did I read that right?
[00:12] <killerKC> can you connect a 2.4ghz wierless ps2 controler to a wireless card
[00:12] <fryguy> killerKC: no
[00:12] <fosco_> shadowvice: if downloading you can cancel with Ctrl+C, if installing/configuring you'd better wait till ends
[00:12] <killerKC> ok thx
[00:12] <beli> Uplink: dynamically linked files use libraries placed on your filesystem....ldd showed what libs it needs....and it tells.....that libruby is missing....but its there...in the actual dir....so i guess it just does not find the lib....place it to a dir where it is found......or make a dynamically link to it....
[00:12] <shadowwulf> fosco_,  ok thanks , its installing
[00:13] <fryguy> yawn, been 3+ hours asking my question. I guess nobody has a definitive answer for me.  Should start on the next problem then
[00:13] <killerKC> well i dont use wirelesss can the the card be modded
[00:13] <shadowwulf> what would cause a dual core machine to run slow on the update ?
[00:13] <dexharv> I used Wubi to install Ubuntu in Vista.  I loaded it up and the wireless card isn't picking up any networks, so i looked to Help - which is telling me to open something (Administration > Network) that doesn't exist.  Help?
[00:13] <Rolcol> Does anyone have a solution to get my memory stick working?  All other card types work except memory stick.  running lspci shows 03:0b.2 Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments 5-in-1 Multimedia Card Reader (SD/MMC/MS/MS PRO/xD)
[00:14] <Uplink> beli: so i put libruby.so.1.8 in /usr/lib/
[00:14] <fryguy> so, I just upgraded to 8.10 and now my sound (intel HD), is maxed out full blast (or muted), and my headphone jack no longer works.  Muting master or pcm mutes, nothing else in volume controls has any affect.  What can I do to get my old audio behavior back?
[00:14] <Taigan> firefox now double spaces everything in ubuntu i have even tried unstalling it and reinstlaling it what's wrong here
[00:14] <killerKC> use reltec HD adieo controller
[00:15] <Rolcol> Taigan, did you remove the preferences folder when you reinstalled firefox?  (just wondering)

[00:15] <beli> Uplink: why not just try?
[00:15] <killerKC> no dbl spce
[00:15] <dexharv> I used Wubi to install Ubuntu in Vista.  I loaded it up and the wireless card isn't picking up any networks, so i looked to Help - which is telling me to open something (Administration > Network) that doesn't exist.  Help?
[00:15] <Taigan> rolcol, whre ar ethe preferences
[00:15] <Rolcol> Taigan, it's located in ~/.mozilla
[00:15] <jayyers> was wondering if anyone could help me out. i remember a few years ago a website where u put in your distro/version and options and it would build a list of commands to add package sources for apt does anyone remember this or know the site i cant find via google.....
[00:16] <Uplink> beli: is /usr/lib/ the right place to put libs?
[00:16] <fryguy> Taigan: or just edit the double space preferent in about:config or the edit|preferences menu in firefox
[00:16] <killerKC> dex, call customer support  <lol
[00:16] <beli> Uplink: why not try?
[00:16] <killerKC> idk what to say dude
[00:16] <killerKC> im only 9
[00:16] <izm99> i have to rmmod && modprobe snd_hda_intel **after logging in** to get a sound sink (and sound).  any idea why?  I've added it to /etc/modules, but no luck.
[00:16] <killerKC> ima go toke a bowl, ima bookmark
[00:17] <Taigan> fryguy, do you know what preference it would be in, in about:config?
[00:17] <fryguy> Taigan: no idea, try #firefox
[00:17] <fryguy> Taigan: it'll be in bold because you changed it
[00:17] <xcerca> does vlc still have a lirc plugin , i couldn't find it
[00:17] <fryguy> it's probably just in the edit|preferences menu too
[00:17] <KhoaticMind> hi guys, does anyone has any idea how can a normal user umount a loop mounted device?
[00:17] <Taigan> fryguy, alrigh tlet me check it out and i already tried the edit preferences menu i didn't find anything
[00:18] <KhoaticMind> i think i can't umount it because its using /dev/loop0, which belongs to root
[00:18] <dougemd> Hey guys, I've got a friend that now ssh's into my box. I use wicd manager for my wireless on the box. How do I change permission for his account so he can't change any of the wicd setting?
[00:18] <Uplink> beli: ok now its giving me another error...

[00:18] <kkathman> I'm having problems with Flash in Firefox not playing the audio...this seems to work just find when I am in KDE (same computer) any ideas?
[00:18] <icqnumber> 1falsh
[00:18] <icqnumber> !flash
[00:19] <LF|Irssi> Can someone help me with Opera in Ubuntu? i cant get the java working (cant click on most "login" buttons") but it works fine in PC-BSD
[00:19] <fryguy> icqnumber: lol fired.  it's all volunteer work
[00:19] <Uplink> beli: ./hacketyhack: error while loading shared libraries: libxpcom.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[00:19] <kkathman> icqnumber,  lol, flash is installed and it plays the video, just not the audio :)
[00:19] <Taigan> fryguy, none of the font settings were changed
[00:19] <kkathman> icqnumber, probably you should read the problem, before offering a factoid that doesnt apply :)
[00:19] <beli> Uplink: so it is missing...find out what package includes that lib and install it
[00:19] <icqnumber> kkathman, yep, there is a trouble section on the page
[00:20] <kkathman> well yeah...but its "install flash" lol
[00:20] <Uplink> beli: how do i do that? what package includes? what
[00:20] <kkathman> its odd, audio works most everywhere else that I can tell, and works fine in Firefox under KDE
[00:20] <cwill747> !info libflashsupport | kkathman
[00:20] <kkathman> so it has to be ubuntu specific
[00:20] <beli> Uplink: ask your external masterbrain......google
[00:20] <bastid_raZor> KhoaticMind; have you tried using sudo umount ?
[00:21] <KhoaticMind> bastid_raZor: with sudo it works, the problem is i'm trying to use it as a regular user
[00:21] <icqnumber> kkathman, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash?action=show&redirect=Flash
[00:21] <kkathman> ubottu,  then wouldnt that mean I could not see ANY flash at all ?
[00:21] <|Jason8|> Hello.  Is there a music player that goes into windowshade mode, like winamp does?  The player becomes a toolbar and it has all the controls on it and a readout of the song title/artist.

[00:21] <KhoaticMind> i've added a line in /etc/fstab which allows normal users to mount a floppy img, but they can't umount it

[00:21] <fosco_> |Jason8|: any window can be shadded
[00:22] <Antioch> Anyone know a gtk GDB gui?
[00:22] <lavacano201014> fosco_: I know what he's talking about

[00:22] <|Jason8|> fosco_: winamp calls it windowshade" mode
[00:22] <|Jason8|> Yeah.
[00:22] <blinkn1> sup y'all
[00:22] <lavacano201014> |Jason8|: Amarok has a function called "mini-player" which does kinda the same thing
[00:22] <Uplink> beli: this is what i found... but i dont get it...http://rpmfind.net/linux/rpm2html/search.php?query=libxpcom.so
[00:22] <fosco_> |Jason8|: audacious
[00:22] <jayyers> anyone remmeber the site im talk bout?
[00:22] <cwill747> kkathman: i would recommend installing flashplugin-nonfree-extrasound, as it replaces libflashsupport which used to fix the problem
[00:23] <lavacano201014> fosco_: Is Audacious another XMMS clone?
[00:23] <fosco_> lavacano201014: yes
[00:23] <lavacano201014> fosco_: I never really liked those, personally. But whatever works for the end user...
[00:23] <droopsta915> what is a good UBUNTU book? I want to learn it better.
[00:24] <beli> Uplink: have you installed the firefox package?
[00:24] <Antioch> Dont know there is an ubuntu book, rather there are linux books.
[00:24] <fryguy> so, I just upgraded to 8.10 and now my sound (intel HD, internal speaker), is maxed out full blast (or muted), and my headphone jack no longer works.  Muting master or pcm mutes, nothing else in volume controls has any affect.  What can I do to get my old audio behavior back?
[00:24] <lavacano201014> droopsta915: This IRC channel is. As well as the Ubuntu Wiki
[00:24] <lavacano201014> As both are always up to date
[00:24] <Taigan> fryguy, how do i change everything back to default in firefox?
[00:24] <Uplink> beli: what firefox package?
[00:24] <lavacano201014> droopsta915: If you want to read about it, head on down to https://wiki.ubuntu.com
[00:24] <fryguy> Taigan: delete ~/.mozilla
[00:25] <beli> Uplink: ubuntu firefox package?
[00:25] <lavacano201014> droopsta915: And if you have a support issue, come to us.
[00:25] <Uplink> beli: ?
[00:25] <fosco_> Taigan: mv .mozilla/ .MOZILLA/
[00:25] <fosco_> then start firefox
[00:25] <lavacano201014> OK, something isn't fully right with Pidgin's package in the repos
[00:25] <MasterShrek> anyone here used a creative x-fi extreme in ubuntu (specifically 8.10) relevant output of lspci: 03:00.0 Audio device: Creative Labs [SB X-Fi Xtreme Audio] CA0110-IBG
[00:25] <starenka> can anyone tell me, where to set partition used for swsusp?
[00:25] <gavagai> droopsta915, depends what you want to learn... imo the best linux book i ever read was 'unix unleashed'
[00:26] <Uplink> beli: what firefox package? :S
[00:26] <beli> Uplink: apt-cache search firefox
[00:26] <symptom> what does the "system load" number mean in the new 8.10 motd?
[00:26] <Cluber> how do i change terminal window name in shell script?
[00:26] <Descention> what's the application that shows the network connection manager in the notification area of the ubuntu menu bar?
[00:26] <Antioch> MasterShrek Havent bothered to try using mine in linux yet. Creative JUST released the drivers open source last week, finally, and I heard theyre in shitty shape as is....
[00:26] <Uplink> beli: i have firefox
[00:26] <Antioch> MasterShrek Though I recall seeing a thread on ubuntuforums.org about getting the old drivers to work
[00:26] <fosco_> Descention: nm-applet
[00:26] <beli> so....check /usr/lib/firefox for the missing lib
[00:26] <Taigan> fosco, it's still double spacing everything
[00:26] <Descention> fosco_: thank you
[00:26] <lavacano201014> Small question, related to make in general: If I run "make clean", do I have to run "./configure" again to re-compile?
[00:27] <Taigan> fosco, i think this problem started after i had tried to install openbox
[00:27] <KhoaticMind> lavacano201014: usually no
[00:27] <fosco_> Taigan: take a screenshot and upload it to imageshack.us
[00:27] <Cluber> how do i change terminal window name in shell script?
[00:27] <lavacano201014> KhoaticMind: OK, because I knew that was the case with distclean
[00:27] <fryguy> lavacano201014: semantics, but ./configure doesn't compile.  and usually make clean won't remove anything that autoconfigure generated
[00:27] <Uplink> beli: there is no /usr/lib/firefox... only /usr/lib/mozilla
[00:27] <Taigan> fosco, okay hold on
[00:27] <Adys> Heya - Is there a proper way to disable nautilus temporarily? Killing it just brings it back up a sec later
[00:28] <fosco_> Cluber: -e name (in many terminals)
[00:28] <beli> Uplink: then check that...i am not on ubuntu atm and i am also not a ubuntu specialized linux user ;)
[00:28] <lavacano201014> fryguy: I knew that, but before you can actually COMPILE, you need to use ./configure (unless it was a make clean, like an earlier answer said)
[00:28] <Uplink> beli: you said you could solve the problem tho
[00:28] <MasterShrek> thanks Antioch
[00:28]  * lavacano201014 recompiles Pidgin now that he knows what he's doing again
[00:28] <symptom> !motd
[00:28] <beli> Uplink: i can for sure :) i can also do it together with you :)
[00:28] <Uplink> beli: sounds like a plan :d
[00:30] <Cluber> fosco_: -e "name" ?
[00:30] <guitarMan666> is there a problem in the Compiz packaged with Intrepid? it won't enable at all and 3D works fine for everything else.
[00:30] <beli> Uplink: its like with cars...if you can drive a car......and i mean not just know howto drive it....you can drive all kind of cars...not just audi or ford ;)
[00:30] <kkathman> cwill747,  ok I'll try to install that and see what happens.
[00:30] <Antioch> MasterShrek np
[00:30] <Uplink> beli: so how can i install libxpcom.so ?
[00:30] <fosco_> Cluber: sorry, -t name
[00:31] <Antioch> guitarMan666 not sure, but in Hoary some gfx cards were blacklisted from turning compiz on, and you had to unblack list them to get it working.
[00:31] <agamalama> does anyone know the site/command to upgrade ubuntu repositories?
[00:31] <Taigan> fosco, http://img390.imageshack.us/img390/1193/97296841az4.th.png
[00:31] <beli> Uplink: i guess it is already on your filesystem if you have firefox installed...but its just not found....at first locate the libxpcom.so file
[00:31] <fosco_> Taigan: can see nothing
[00:31] <fosco_> gimme last link
[00:31] <Antioch> guitarMan666 try searching for your gfx card model/name and compiz on ubuntuforums see if that comes up.
[00:31] <guitarMan666> Antioch: how would i go about unblacking it?
[00:31] <Uplink> beli: how can i locate it? i tried whereis but that doesnt help much
[00:32] <beli> Uplink: LOCATE it ;)

[00:32] <agamalama> does anyone know the site/command to upgrade ubuntu repositories?
[00:32] <PassionFRUI7E> I love you.
[00:32] <fryguy> BrickHaus: lol 2 days
[00:32] <Cluber> fosco_: Are you just going through the alphabet :) -e and -t don't work.
[00:32] <fosco_> Cluber: gnome-terminal -t "My first Terminal"
[00:32] <beli> PassionFRUI7E: read the /etc/apache/httpd.conf
[00:33] <jayyers> agamalama i remember a site that you would put in your distro and chose a few options and would let you choose the next version and if you did that would upgrade to the next site but cant remember the website which is why im here

[00:33] <PassionFRUI7E> beli: No such director /etc/apache
[00:33] <richard_> Ey, i have installed gdesklets and added a desklet of weather on my desktop, but how do i do to de desklet to retrieve the info??????
[00:33] <BrickHaus> fryguy: new to ubuntu. Don't know how they work.. ;) Just wanted to make sure I didn't do something wrong or place the bug in the wrong place..
[00:33] <beli> PassionFRUI7E: apache2 then
[00:33] <jgb> how do I create a list of all packages installed on intrepid, so I can have my system recreated on another pc?
[00:33] <PassionFRUI7E> *director->directory
[00:33] <xchat_newb> I'm trying to install Request Tracker and I'm getting this error when restarting apache: http://paste.ubuntu.com/70740/ Can someone help me understand how to fix this?
[00:34] <PassionFRUI7E> httpd.conf is empty.
[00:34] <Cluber> fosco_: That opens a new terminal, I want the current terminal name to change with a command. Any help?
[00:34] <beli> Uplink: so.....link the file from /usr/lib  or use the shell var: LD_LIBARY_PATH
[00:34] <MiraiWarren0_0> agamalama: "sudo apt-get update"
[00:35] <fryguy> so, I just upgraded to 8.10 and now my sound (intel HD, internal speaker), is maxed out full blast (or muted), and my headphone jack no longer works.  Muting master or pcm mutes, nothing else in volume controls has any affect.  What can I do to get my old audio behavior back?
[00:35] <Uplink> beli: hmm...

[00:35] <mustafa> how do i stream media to my ps3 in intrepid?
[00:35] <cheze> ubuntu-es
[00:35] <Taigan> fosco, where do i change that
[00:35] <genii-around> fryguy: Did you check yet the factoid !intelhda         ?
[00:36] <cheze> #ubuntu-es
[00:36] <guitarMan666> Antioch: i'll look around.  It worked out of the box with Hardy for me and 3D works fine for everything else.  There seems to be a bug associated with it but no one seems to know if it's with hardware or software.
[00:36] <Uplink> beli: plink@HP-Pavilion:~/hacketyhack-0.L$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/xulrunner:. ./hacketyhack
[00:36] <Uplink> ./hacketyhack: error while loading shared libraries: libxpcom_core.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[00:36] <Taigan> fosco, how and come it doesnt' affect any other browser
[00:36] <kkathman> cwill747, that seems to have done the trick...many thanks :)  wonder why that was NOT needed in KDE though?
[00:36] <Cluber> Adys: Doesn't work....
[00:36] <lavacano201014> Sigh, more KDE4 woes for me
[00:36] <Schuenemann> my sound stopped working. Is there a command to restart the sound server?
[00:36] <fryguy> genii-around: looks like it's for a very old version of intel sound drivers, and not applicable to 8.10
[00:36] <fosco_> Taigan: for firefox edit - preferences - contents - fonts
[00:36] <Cluber> echo "ESC]2;TEXT^G"
[00:36] <fosco_> for gnome system - preferences appearance - fonts
[00:36] <Cluber> Does not work.
[00:36] <kansan> # Replace the following with the correct path and version of your php module;   LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so ... where is this located on ubuntu hardy?  or how can i tell?
[00:37] <BrickHaus> fryguy: I know linux but not sure on what the normal wait period is for filing a bug. With Gentoo, they respond very quick with atleast a response to know they're looking at it.
[00:37] <genii-around> fryguy: You'd be mistaken :)
[00:37] <Cluber> fosco_: I want to do it within a shell script.
[00:37] <fryguy> genii-around: sorry if I wasn't perfectly clear in my stated question.  Sound behavior worked correctly and as expected in 8.04, and functionality completely changed and broke in 8.10
[00:37] <lavacano201014> I want to change the colors for my KDE3 stuff (Amarok still uses these), but kcontrol (which is what #kde told me to use) isn't installed. Nor do I get the apt-get command to install it, which leads me to think it's not available anymore

[00:40] <fryguy> genii-around: there is nothing in that wiki entry that I haven't tried yet.  Is there anything documenting the specific changes to 8.10 that would cause the loss of functionality with my sound hardware configuration?
[00:40] <beli> Uplink :) ok, but i think you learned some stuff....
[00:40] <Adys> Heya - Is there a proper way to disable nautilus temporarily? Killing it just brings it back up a sec later

[00:42] <DIL> !google

[00:42] <Terabyte> the one that comes with gnome by default
[00:42] <fryguy> Terabyte: nautilus
[00:42] <kthef> nautilus
[00:42] <Terabyte> thanks
[00:42] <Uplink> beli: yea bro thanx for the help... but i just cant figure out anything more
[00:42] <Terabyte> do i just write nautilus on the command line?
[00:43] <beli> Uplink...the problem was too....hard for you.....you have to learn more about the basics
[00:43] <Terabyte> and get a window?
[00:43] <kthef> yes
[00:43] <Uplink> beli: yes sir... more basics :D
[00:43] <Terabyte> because i got unknown command

[00:43] <Hilikus> hey guys
[00:43] <xchat_newb> Can someone help me with Request Tracker or is there a channel to help with it
[00:44] <user1949> anybody know how to install drivers through envy?
[00:44] <LF|Irssi> Something like Flashblock firefox plugin would prevent a lot of that viator
[00:44] <cwill747> !envy | user1949
[00:44] <Terabyte> kthef are there any others that will do it?
[00:44] <viator> yeah im running adblock plus

[00:44] <Hilikus> is it normal that .Xauthority is owned by root, im trying to forward X11 to windows using xming and when i connect with putty i get
[00:44] <fryguy> viator: flashblock not adblock
[00:44] <Hilikus> /usr/bin/X11/xauth: /home/hilikus/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignored
[00:44] <kthef> Terabyte, that should do it
[00:44] <LF|Irssi> yeah you need Flashblock
[00:45] <kthef> are you in a terminal window?
[00:45] <viator> well i WANT to see what the videos are
[00:45] <user1949> i run envyng -t and it errors out at "TypeError: list indices must be integers"
[00:45] <kthef> Terabyte, type:  which nautilus

[00:46] <Antioch> Anyone here use Anjuta? I made a simple C program but the debug menu doesn't appear. The whole reason I installed anjuta is to get a GDB gtk-gui wrapper... any thoughts?
[00:46] <Terabyte> but it should still work right?
[00:46] <xchat_newb> Pici, thanks!
[00:46] <fryguy> Cmclean: wicd, ifconfig are 2 options, or just add the network-manager app back to your panel
[00:46] <fryguy> Cmclean: iwconfig, not ifconfig
[00:46] <LF|Irssi> Terabyte: lucky you i cant seem to get ssh -X working :/

[00:47] <invisime> lavacano201014: no clue.
[00:47] <kthef> Terabyte, is it installed on the remote system?
[00:48] <kthef> Terabyte, I gotta run talk at you later
[00:48] <lavacano201014> invisime: OK, are you using GNOME?

[01:12] <genii-around> Uplink: I'll drink it, don't worry :)
[01:12] <nicholaspaul> Uplink: Thanks! genii-around cheers! Now, any idea why my audio would not be working on a fresh install (8.10) ?
[01:12] <PassionFRUI7E> genii-around:  I already had PHP installed, and the second restart seemed to work.  But when I go to http://localhost/ and view the source it shows my <?php ?> tags..
[01:12] <mark489> fryguy: ya, i know, but this old installation's hd doesn't have enough space w/o blowing away the files i wanna preserve.  an external micro hd would be sweet...
[01:12] <Uplink> genii-around: good... got 2 spoons of sugar, just how you like it
[01:12] <Uplink> nicholaspaul: its muted lol
[01:12] <nicholaspaul> Uplink: hah
[01:12] <nicholaspaul> any other ideas?
[01:12] <fryguy> mark489: 4gb flash drives are about $10
[01:12] <Uplink> nicholaspaul: sudo apt-get gnome-alsamixer
[01:12] <hellmitre> I'm having some trouble getting mpd working

[01:13] <PassionFRUI7E> Yo.  How you enabled PHP on apache2?
[01:13] <Godsize> hi
[01:13] <Kalela> IBM Thinkpad T41 - let me get the specs on it
[01:13] <PassionFRUI7E> *enabled->enable
[01:14] <Kalela> I honestly don't remember... lol
[01:14] <fryguy> PassionFRUI7E: you install the apache php package and restart apache
[01:14] <hellmitre> so that mpd question
[01:14] <hellmitre> before I was banned for being stupid
[01:14] <hellmitre> http://paste.ubuntu.com/70752/
[01:14] <nicholaspaul> Uplink: sudo apt-get INSTALL alsa-mixer?
[01:14] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: Likely the directory in which the php code resides is not set to executable in some virtual server directive in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
[01:14] <chuy_max> hey guys, is it possible to boot a laptop with an iso/cd-r in my desktop PC, the laptop supports boot over network
[01:15] <fryguy> chuy_max: use pxe boot
[01:15] <Uplink> nicholaspaul: no... sudo aptitude install gnome-alsamixer
[01:15] <Kalela> I think it's 1.6Ghz, 256MB, 40GB HDD... old but usable... lol
[01:15] <dink> can someone help me??
[01:15] <Reformer81> Could someone recommend a simple and effective FTP server?  Preferably one with a GUI configuration, if possible.
[01:15] <dink> Im running an xp virtualbox and the internet dosent work any suggestions?
[01:15] <dink> Im running an xp virtualbox and the internet dosent work any suggestions?
[01:15] <Anacranom> chuy_max, yes, i do it all the time
[01:15] <chuy_max> fryguy, googlint it, thanks for the info :)
[01:15] <BrickHaus> Thanks for the tip fryguy.
[01:15] <dink> Im running an xp virtualbox and the internet dosent work any suggestions?
[01:15] <chuy_max> Anacranom, also use pxe boot?
[01:16] <slestak> i just had to reboot a intrepid machine that was having a sound issue (sound from Battle Tanks was oscillating on speakers after exit)  I was looking at top, and saw dd was running and has 9 minutes of cpu time.  I dont kn0w why in the heck dd was running it at all.  I didnt start it...
[01:16] <PassionFRUI7E> genii-around:  I get what your saying but I don't know what you want me to do to fix it.
[01:16] <fryguy> dink: are you running through a cable modem or a router
[01:16] <Uplink> dink: if your on wi-fi your lost
[01:16] <ToddEDM> hey guys, i did the upgrade, and now my laptop has no keyboard, so i cant even log on ... anyone know how i can fix this?
[01:16] <dink> CABLE MODEM
[01:16] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: Is the php code in /var/www or some other place?
[01:16] <dink> sorry caps
[01:16] <mtappenden> Are there any 3G modems (either USB or built into any laptops) that work with Ubuntu?
[01:16] <dink> ethernet.
[01:16] <Dominik> what program can plot function including planes? that I can get for Ubuntu, for free! thx
[01:16] <PassionFRUI7E> Yes it is index.php in /var/www
[01:16] <nicholaspaul> Uplink: k, so now alsamixer is installed. Now what?
[01:17] <Godsize> anybody here tried the 2nd stage of the cpu_alloc patches in ubuntu yet?
[01:17] <wwpiexec> so.. i made a script in it.. "sudo chvt 7".. then I made an application launcher and placed /path/to/script in the command line... but it doesnt work..
[01:17] <dink> uplink: ??
[01:17] <Uplink> nicholaspaul: gnome-alsamixer
[01:17] <confuded> Uplink: ever heard of the Canon PIXMA ip100, not the ip10000
[01:17] <crashatau> mtappenden: I believe some of the Vodafone ones do. The Hueawai brand or some name like that
[01:17] <ToddEDM> hey guys, i did the upgrade, and now my laptop has no keyboard, so i cant even log on ... anyone know how i can fix this?
[01:17] <confuded> meaning ip1000
[01:17] <dink> fryguy im running through cable modem
[01:17] <dink> fryguy im running through cable modem
[01:17] <fryguy> dink: you'll probably have to set up your machine to be a network gateway then.  or try using the NAT option for the network for connectivity.  You have a separate machine there, and it needs it's own IP, your cable modem can only provide one IP
[01:17] <Uplink> dink: i have the same problem...
[01:17] <Uplink> confuded: i got a canon pixma
[01:18] <Uplink> confuded: canon pixma mp150
[01:18] <mtappenden> crashatau: Mine's a T-Mobile stick I wouldn't know how to find what manufacturer/model it is though
[01:18] <^Einstein> ok, I guess it's too busy for me to wait for a lull in the discussion, lol. Sooo... how can I find and attach to a TTY that doesn't have an open terminal? I know the executable name and can find the PID from top, but I don't know how to find the tty's name in /dev
[01:18] <confuded> Uplink: well I have a ip100 and have no luck of configuring it
[01:18] <Anacranom> chuy_max, sorry, mis-read your question,,, but easier way would put the iso on a flash drive and boot from that
[01:18] <slestak> i double checked with sone, and he didnt run dd.  actually, it was running as root.
[01:18] <crashatau>  mtappenden: Google? Look on that back of the stick?
[01:18] <dink> Uplink you have same problem
[01:18] <dink> Uplink you have same problem
[01:18] <Uplink> confuded: hmm... configuring it? or getting the drivers?
[01:19] <fryguy> so, I just upgraded to 8.10 and now my sound (intel HD, internal speaker), is maxed out full blast (or muted), and my headphone jack no longer works.  Muting master or pcm mutes, nothing else in volume controls has any affect.  What can I do to get my old audio behavior back?
[01:19] <mtappenden> crashatau: The stick just has a T-Mobile logo, the rest is completely blank. I'll try Google.
[01:19] <Kalela> Mark489:  Did you see that response?
[01:19] <PassionFRUI7E> genii-around:  Any ideas?
[01:19] <Uplink> dink: yea... i cant get to work the network... i tried EVERYTHING...
[01:19] <confuded> Uplink: some higher version printer drivers, for pixma ipXXXX, print a blank page, no matter what i print, but the ip100 drivers i found don't even do that. Just appear in the que and disappear...
[01:19] <confuded> Uplink: both :)
[01:19] <chuy_max> Anacranom, I don't have a flash drive right now, and my laptop is not reading CD-RW/DVD-RW (I have both right now), only normal CD-R/DVD-R :(
[01:19] <Godsize> anybody here tried the 2nd stage of the cpu_alloc patches in ubuntu yet???
[01:19] <mark489> Kalela: that surely should run ubu with ease.  ubuntu may not play well w/the hardware.  google t41 ubuntu
[01:19] <crashatau> mtappenden: If it's usb you probably won't get it to work.
[01:19] <mtappenden> crashatau: Oh, why's that?
[01:20] <crashatau> mtappenden: PC card or Bluetooth ones are the easiest
[01:20] <bazhang> dink, if you dont get any answers here, you can also ask in #vbox
[01:20] <nicholaspaul> Uplink: On starting alsamixer, I get this error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/70755/
[01:20] <dink> k
[01:20] <dink> thanks
[01:20] <dink> man
[01:20] <^Einstein> I need to attach to an unknown TTY; I have the PID name. I know there's a way to do this, I just don't know how.?
[01:20] <fryguy> dink: I thought i just explained to you what your problem was and how to solve it.  what is the issue nwo
[01:20] <mtappenden> crashatau: My phone supports thethering by bluetooth but it's much slower than using my USB stick, in my experience with a MacBook Pro
[01:20] <Uplink> confuded: well i never used a printer in ubuntu lol
[01:20] <MiraiWarren0_0> Blue?
[01:21] <Anacranom> chuy_max, well, the pxe would have to be set up first, and that can be extensive,,, and beyond me
[01:21] <jeeves_Moss> is there a seedbox program that runs on the CLI, but has a web interface?
[01:21] <bitsbam> sorry, is there a way to unshare a folder previously set up to share with samba?
[01:21] <dink> i am using
[01:21] <dink> an
[01:21] <dink> nat
[01:21] <dink> connection
[01:21] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: Yes, http://paste.ubuntu.com/70756/
[01:21] <fryguy> jeeves_Moss: seedbox as in torrent?
[01:21] <crashatau> mtappenden: In Australia we have Three Mobile USB HSDPA sticks that work on Ubuntu. So they do exist.
[01:22] <mark489> Kalela: after googling, looks like the ubuntu oughtta run nicely on ur t41.  have you tried booting other linuxes from live cds?
[01:22] <matt__> What is a really good distro to run off a 4GB flashdrive?
[01:22] <Critical5> Anyone have experience changing screen resolution with the Intel 945 chipset?
[01:22] <jeeves_Moss> fryguy, yep.
[01:22] <confuded> Uplink: heh, thanks anyway
[01:22] <fryguy> jeeves_Moss: rtorrent meets your needs
[01:22] <Kalela> no we haven't
[01:22] <confuded> Uplink: I have to go to sleep anyways....
[01:22] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: Note the:  +ExecCGI      option
[01:22] <bazhang> matt__, for the eeepc?
[01:22] <crashatau> matt__: Knoppix, Damn Small Linux
[01:22] <musikgoat> bitsbam: remove it from the file /etc/samba/smb.conf, as it should be there in a block of information, or better yet, comment out the section in case you wish to share it again
[01:22] <mtappenden> crashatau: Yeah we have Three, T-Mobile, Orange, O2 and Vodafone sticks. I just happen to ahve T-Mobile.
[01:22] <jeeves_Moss> I was reading about one I can't remember what one it is though.  it run on the CLI, but has a web interface to access/control it
[01:22] <Uplink> nicholaspaul: try "alsa-mixer"
[01:22] <dink> FryGuy, i am using NAT
[01:22] <matt__> bazhang: No...for mobile linux off a usb flashdrive.
[01:22] <fryguy> dink: and what is the IP of your virtual machine
[01:22] <mark489> Kalela: would b good to try to see if others have issues as well.   good luck!  i gotta run.
[01:23] <Kalela> thanks
[01:23] <mark489> other linuxes live from cd that is
[01:23] <residentskitz> hey everybody.  I've got an issue with my fresh install of 8.10;  my mouse cursor keeps jumping to the center of the screen and its impossible to do anything.  any thoughts?
[01:23] <danderson> during setup, I told the installer that I wanted to map alt-gr to an alt key. I want to undo that now, but I can't find where that setting is stored.
[01:23] <Cmclean> I really need help with wifi PM me please!!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:23] <matt__> crashatau: I'm looking for one that will allow me to "modify" the system...like if I edit the wallpaper, will it stay that way for next boot? What if I write a bash file, will it be there later?
[01:23] <bazhang> !wifi | Cmclean
[01:23] <Uplink> Cmclean: not PM... here
[01:23] <danderson> The keyboard settings in gnome don't list anything related to alt-gr at all.
[01:23] <Kalela> I can't get it to install off the CD either... we'd happily do that if we could make it work
[01:23] <mark489> Kalela:  puppylinux and vectorlinux are worth trying
[01:23] <Cmclean> sry all the peops talking is crazy
[01:23] <^Einstein> I need to recapture a tty in a terminal that's already been opened without screen; how can I do this?
[01:24] <dink> 1
[01:24] <dink> sec
[01:24] <nicholaspaul> Uplink:  i did already, and all my levels are up. nothing is muted. Is it poss. that the two soundcards are letting NOTHING out? Can i disable the built in one?
[01:24] <Uplink> Cmclean: yea still... here lol
[01:24] <PassionFRUI7E> genii-around:  Where I change that?  my httpd is empty
[01:24] <Cmclean> !wifi
[01:24] <dink> running now
[01:24] <slestak> screen -r -d
[01:24] <bitsbam> musikgoat, found it, thanks
[01:24] <Cmclean> !wifi
[01:24] <crashatau> matt__: I believe you can do that with knoppix.
[01:24] <Godsize> did anyone get the 49 patches in the stable review for the <IP_ADDRESS> release?

[01:24] <user1949> how do i stop x to install nvidia drivers?
[01:24] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: in   /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
[01:24] <bazhang> matt__, check the persistent link

[01:24] <user1949> no
[01:24] <Godsize> did anyone get the 49 patches in the stable review for the <IP_ADDRESS> release?
[01:25] <Critical5> !intel
[01:25] <user1949> doesnt work, i have to manually install the drivers.
[01:25] <jrib> user1949: yes.  Please read the docs the bot has sent you.
[01:25] <user1949> i need to stop x
[01:25] <crashatau>  matt__: You could in theory install Ubuntu on the stick. I've install Ubuntu on a USB 60GB hard disk
[01:25] <matt__> crashatau: Good old knoppix...really first linux I ever tried besides dsl. Funny..actually. Downloaded the ISO at school, after having the IT teacher burn it for me (no cd burners on "student" pc's), took it home and booted, discovered I'd accidently downloaded an iso of a different language :{}
[01:25] <user1949> jrib i've read all of that
[01:25] <dink> it says
[01:25] <user1949> i've been trying to install this crap for like 3 days
[01:25] <dink> its blank FryGuy
[01:25] <crashatau> matt__: LOL
[01:25] <jrib> user1949: apparently not since they include installing the drivers manually...
[01:25] <Felixggenest> ciao
[01:25] <fryguy> I just upgraded to 8.10 and my second monitor won't turn on anymore.  ATI Radeon 2400 XT graphics card, restored my existing xorg.conf that I backed up, with no effect.  I'm also stuck at 800x600 resolution.  What can I do?

[01:25] <Kalela> Anyone else have an idea about Ubunto freezing and the caps lock flashing?
[01:25] <dink> bring up anywaying
[01:26] <dink> anything**
[01:26] <FloodBot3> dink: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:26] <PassionFRUI7E> genii-around:  How you update apache2 again?
[01:26] <matt__> crashatau: ever tried slax?
[01:26] <Cmclean> ummm the wifi docs are **** so can someone actually go through it i'm kinda helpless. Plus it's for 8.04 LTS
[01:26] <mark489> Kalela: meaning, burn puppylinux isos to cd just like you did ubuntu, then try to boot.  if trying other linuxed live from cd also fail, that'd seem to indicate an issue with your t41.
[01:26] <bazhang> dink, dont use the enter key after two words
[01:26] <millertime_018> hey how do i update from ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10
[01:26] <millertime_018> ?
[01:26] <^Einstein> Kalela: that actually just happened to me for the first time today, no idea why.
[01:26] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: Just restart it.eg:    sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[01:26] <ryanakca> How can I find out if I have any nonfree software installed?
[01:26] <jrib> user1949: make sure you read the release notes as well since not all cards can use the nvidia driver now
[01:26] <bazhang> !upgrade | millertime_018
[01:26] <Kalela> thanks Mark... downloding one now
[01:26] <nicholaspaul> Uplink: i'll have a look. Thanks.
[01:26] <jrib> ryanakca: vrms
[01:26] <fryguy> dink: then like I said earlier, you'll need to configure your host machine to hand it an IP, or configure the settings or virtualbox to maybe do it for you
[01:26] <user1949> my card wasn't listed...
[01:26] <crashatau> matt__: Nah, never have I'm afraid.
[01:26] <ryanakca> jrib: thanks
[01:26] <user1949> but i was trying to find a work around
[01:27] <user1949> it's an nvidia 9800 gx2
[01:27] <PassionFRUI7E> I still see the php tags in my source =/
[01:27] <dink> May i ask how i might do that??????
[01:27] <Uplink> nicholaspaul: np... play around with the settings
[01:27] <fryguy> dink: no idea, as mentioned earlier, try #vbox
[01:27] <dink> k thanks
[01:27] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: Clear out your web browser's cache and try again
[01:27] <jrib> user1949: 177 should work for that.  I don't see why hardware drivers wouldn't work

[01:32] <user1949> i didn't select a specific package...
[01:32] <musikgoat> user1949: check in synaptic
[01:32] <Cmclean> O sry will use paste next time
[01:32] <Uplink> lol
[01:33] <Uplink> ok type ifconfig -a
[01:33] <Uplink> and pastebin it Cmclean
[01:33] <jrib> ToddEDM: a workaround may be to revert to your old xorg.conf and add the appropriate serverflag to xorg.conf (search for "hal" in 'man xorg.conf')
[01:33] <Cmclean> yessir
[01:33] <flats> OK I've been using Ubuntu since edgy and have never had a problem with my wireless, now, I only have a green globe and I hear that network manager has been taken out in (whichever the I version is) .  How do I configure my wireless?
[01:33] <musikgoat> user1949: i'm going to reboot and check something, brb
[01:33] <user1949> musikgoat
[01:33] <user1949> damn i liked that guy
[01:33] <user1949> lol
[01:34] <flats> My wireless worked right off the bat in all other versions so there shouldn't be a problem I would think
[01:34] <Cmclean> Uplink:pasted
[01:34] <wolFman^JaM> w00t!

[01:35] <Cmclean> yes
[01:35] <jrib> user1949: I told you what to do
[01:35] <Anacranom> flats, i would assume the lack of a response means ,,, reload 8.04, wish i could help but haven't figured it out myself
[01:35] <Cmclean> even with drivers
[01:35] <Uplink> Cmclean: type ifconfig wlan0 up
[01:35] <ToddEDM> jrib, ok new question, how bout just taking my home folder and placing it on a new partition, then reinstalling??, but when i boot fron CD, all my folders are locked, how do i get to be able to copy them
[01:35] <Cmclean> Uplink: says permission denied
[01:36] <jrib> ToddEDM: fix the ownership
[01:36] <KyTiX> sudo cpy?
[01:36] <jrib> !permissions > ToddEDM
[01:36] <user1949> jrib, you did?
[01:36] <Uplink> Cmclean: hmmm type sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
[01:36] <wolFman^JaM> ok so wheres the best place to rip it up round here Uplink ?
[01:36] <KyTiX> I dont think you have to sudo ifconfig
[01:36] <jrib> user1949: yes.  I told you to install the 177 driver and pastebin /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /etc/X11/xorg.conf after X fails
[01:37] <user1949> oh that
[01:37] <Cmclean> Uplink: Didn't do anything
[01:37] <user1949> yeah i'm afraid of that man...
[01:37] <genii-around> PassionFRUI7E: I missed your earlier message (name was typoed). I do not assist in PM or IM, only in public channel. You should also add in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf   file in the DirectoryIndex   section next to: index.html       index.php

[01:37] <jrib> genii-around: that really shouldn't be necessary.  !lamp details all the steps needed in the troubleshooting section there
[01:38] <^Einstein> I have a generic Linux question that is not being answered here. Is there another channel someone can refer me to?
[01:38] <genii-around> jrib: Ah, nice

[01:48] <gareth_> Anyone know how to get network icon to show up?
[01:48] <jrib> user1949: I've seen this issue.  You need to specify a BusID for one of your cards in your xorg.conf
[01:48] <Critical5> I don't see anywhere where I can change screen resolution
[01:48] <usser> Critical5, as of 8.04 X is configured automatically but if u know what to put in xorg.conf those options are still respected.
[01:48] <user1949> ok... how do i do that?
[01:49] <viper> shutdown now
[01:49] <viper> ;x
[01:49] <PeskyJ> smbfs is not installed by default in ubuntu 8.10 - but modinfo smbfs shows the kernel module to be present (though it's not loaded afaict) does that mean ubuntu exclusively uses fuse instead?
[01:49] <user1949> jrib: ok, how do i do that?
[01:49] <Critical5> How can I figure out what to put in xorg.conf to get a resolution of 1440x900?
[01:50] <bazhang> DarkKnight, try to update and upgrade (sudo apt-get update  sudo apt-get upgrade) and paste.ubuntu.com with any errors

[01:51] <cdecarlo> I'm working out how to change my home network from dhcp to static ip's, my /etc/network/interfaces file has me a little weirded out, the only thing in it is the loopback, how am I able to connect to my network?
[01:51] <xxpor> hey does anyone have suspend or hibernate working on an HP tx2500?
[01:51] <LF|Irssi> it's just that i cant get the java working (WOrks in firefox) so i know i have the Java plugins
[01:51] <Anacranom> user1949, sounds like you were saved just in time, get 8.04 back, 8.10 may not be ready for you yet, new users&8.10=nonfriendly
[01:51] <gareth_> Uplink: In my network manager none of my wireless networks show up, and I dont have a network icon by the volume and all that
[01:51] <temppy> cdecarlo: use google to find an example file
[01:51] <DarkKnight> banzhang, thanx...i'll do
[01:52] <xxpor> Can you install Ubuntu from a flash drive?
[01:52] <minime283> can uname -r to return the wrong linux kernel version number?
[01:52] <joebodo> xxpor yes - i have done it
[01:52] <cdecarlo> temppy: I've a few howto's, I'm not asking how to make the switch, I'm asking why it is I can connect to my network with out anything in my interfaces file except the loopback
[01:52] <Uplink> gareth_: can you run it? NetworkManager
[01:52] <cdecarlo> *read
[01:53] <xxpor> joebodo: do you have some instructions?
[01:53] <binarymutant> whats the correct way to do this? XS-Python-Version: >=2.3
[01:53] <genii-around> cdecarlo: If you add some entry in interfaces, the networkmanager ignores the interface now thinking it is manually configured
[01:53] <usser> cdecarlo, all network settings in ubuntu are managed by network manager, you can uninstall it if u wanna go back to manual settings but theres also an option in network manager itself that lets you assign ip manually
[01:53] <mkartic> hi, how do i check directory sizes? du command lists everything, i just want it for the top level directories
[01:53] <jrib> binarymutant: #ubuntu-motu is probably a better channel

[01:53] <joebodo> xxpor https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[01:53] <xxpor> joebodo: thanks

[01:54] <jrib> user1949: ctrl-o ctrl-x
[01:54] <cdecarlo> usser: really, I'm surprised they would tie the configuration so tightly to UI
[01:54] <joebodo> !webcam
[01:55] <user1949> done
[01:55] <user1949> jrib: now reboot?
[01:55] <gareth_> Uplink: it says "You must be root to run NetworkManager!"
[01:55] <jrib> user1949: sure, or just restart X
[01:55] <minime283> anyone here knowlegable about linux-headers and kernel stuff that I can pm for a couple of minutes for some help?
[01:55] <cdecarlo> genii-around: so, network-manager will back off if I try to configure the network manually?
[01:55] <joebodo> !ask | minime283
[01:55] <Uplink> gareth_: "sudo NetworkManager"
[01:56] <user1949> jrib: ok, i did startx... and I'm at a blank screen....
[01:56] <usser> cdecarlo, yea but if u know what u doing then u can always manually configure it and as somebody pointed out network manager will ignore the interface thats manually configured
[01:56] <jrib> user1949: umm, I'm not sure startx does a sensible thing if you haven't setup a ~/.xinitrc or the like.  I was suggesting /etc/init.d/gdm start
[01:57] <user1949> oh
[01:57] <user1949> lol
[01:57] <greghere> I have installed "Helix" (ubuntu 8.04) and I uninstalled powermanagement from the package manager, now It wont boot. How to I fix it please?
[01:57] <minime283> I'm trying to install virtual box, and it can't find the headers. I try to apt-get the headers, and they don't exist in the repositories anymore
[01:57] <user1949> jrib: ok... so what should i do?
[01:57] <gareth_> Uplink: Entered that, then entered my password, then nothing happened
[01:57] <genii-around> cdecarlo: Yes
[01:57] <jrib> user1949: just hit ctrl-alt-f1, login, reboot, that will be easiest
[01:57] <EruditeHermit> joebodo: is there any resource other than that? My webcam still works with the old kernel. The new kernel breaks it
[01:57] <mkartic> jrib: thanks, du -sh * did the trick! :)
[01:57] <cdecarlo> genii-around: neat
[01:57] <Uplink> gareth_: so how exactly your not getting network manager? how are you connected

[02:01] <bazhang> phloat, windows? or ubuntu

[02:08] <joebodo> pr06r4mm3r if you only downloaded / unzipped it, its not really installed - you can just delete it
[02:08] <mylisto> bazhang: what about using characters to bleep out a cuss word...such as $%$#
[02:08] <mylisto> or was it the reference to macintosh?
[02:08] <PR06R4MM3R> ?
[02:09] <VastHappyDude> joebodo: no luck, when i did that before, it would boot, but i couldnt see my desktop
[02:09] <jrib> user1949: hmm.  does it say you are in failsafe X or does everything look ok?
[02:09] <crdlb> Critical5: you understand that an LCD can only run at one resolution? (its native resolution)
[02:09] <bazhang> mylisto, we can read those; please chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:09] <cishpix> why my cheese application always not respond when I pressed video button?

[02:09] <joebodo> vasthappydude are you using the restricted driver (administration -> hardware drivers) ?
[02:09] <VastHappyDude> joebodo: yep
[02:09] <Critical5> I swear I ran it at a different resolution in xp
[02:09] <bazhang> PR06R4MM3R, there should be some install notes; likely they contain info on how to remove as well.
[02:10] <user1949> jrib: definitely no, compiz is working!!!!!!
[02:10] <jrib> user1949: check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if anything went wrong

[02:13] <DarkKnight> bazhang; so any idea abt network tweeks.. so dat i can increase my download speed
[02:13] <Kalela> So... odd question for someone.  I have ubuntu on my HP pavillion laptop... any way to make the wifi light solid rather than flashing?  it remained solid when XP was loaded
[02:13] <cwill747> !cinelerra | mkartic
[02:13] <joebodo> Kalela not an odd question - that comes up a lot
[02:13] <counterdutch> network tweaks see iptables manuals

[02:13] <LF|Irssi> how do i easily switch window in irssi if window is like 21?
[02:13] <omar> hey guys do you know how to delete a file from my trash bin
[02:13] <bazhang> ffmpeg mkartic
[02:14] <cwill747> LF|Irssi: use the /window command. /window (window number)
[02:14] <Kalela> thanks... :)
[02:14] <Spets> omar: shift+del ?
[02:14] <mkartic> bazhang: thanks
[02:14] <omar> !info shred files
[02:14] <LF|Irssi> cwill747: no easier way than that?
[02:14] <jrib> omar: file -> empty trash ?
[02:14] <mindrape> ~/.local/share/Trash
[02:15] <cwill747> LF|Irssi: well i mean i doubt you want to use the /window next command for everything
[02:15] <LF|Irssi> alt+n would be easier than /window next
[02:15] <omar> spets | still does not delete it
[02:15] <gareth_> I have upgraded to 8.10 and now I dont have a network manager, anyone know how to fix this?
[02:15] <crdlb> Critical5: what model is the laptop, and does the screen look "sharp" in ubuntu? If your lcd panel is really 1440x900, 1280x800 would look very bad
[02:15] <mindrape> !networkmanager
[02:16] <cwill747> LF|Irssi: well no, if you're using the program as a command line application shortcut keys won't work as far as i know
[02:16] <PeskyJ> ooh, I had a trash question.. if you delete a file from an encfs mounteded directory using the file manager rather than the command line, and it goes to trash, does it move the file somewhere unencrypted?
[02:16] <DarkKnight> !network tweak
[02:16] <mindrape> gareth - if you want you can drop to console and configure it manually             sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid YOURSSID                   sudo dhclient wlan0            (assuming you dont have a WEP key... otherwise man iwconfig to see how to set the keys.
[02:16] <VastHappyDude> joebodo: no luck
[02:16] <Critical5> it is a hp pavilion dv5220us
[02:16] <omar> I can not delete  a folder from the TRash !!!
[02:16] <DarkKnight> !tweak
[02:17] <Critical5> it looks pretty sharp, but not as sharp as in xp
[02:17] <jrib> omar: sudo chown -R $USER: ~/.local/share/Trash/        and then try again
[02:17] <DarkKnight> !network
[02:17] <omar> !delete
[02:17] <mindrape> omar - sudo rm -rf dirname/
[02:17] <genii-around> PeskyJ: Good Q. I suspect it does that
[02:17] <DarkKnight> !network
[02:17] <mindrape> omar - rmdir wont work on it if it has files.
[02:17] <bazhang> DarkKnight, /msg ubottu
[02:17] <gareth_> mindrape: I am not very good at command line, so I really need a gui interface.  Any ideas?
[02:17] <DarkKnight> bazhang, just trying 2 get the info on network weak
[02:17] <joebodo> vasthappydude theres some good info on that page and the link near the bottom - especially regarding logging
[02:18] <DarkKnight> bazhang, just trying 2 get the info on network tweak
[02:18] <mindrape> gareth_: apt-get install it again?
[02:18] <omar> Thank you beautiful trick
[02:18] <bazhang> DarkKnight, dont do it in channel; use /msg ubottu
[02:18] <omar> How do I get user privileges ?
[02:18] <cwill747> gareth_: a GUI for what?
[02:18] <bazhang> omar, sudo
[02:18] <user1949> jrib: thanks so much... i only have one video card. do you mean it's only using one GPU? the GX2 iis one video card with dual GPUs.
[02:18] <VastHappyDude> joebodo: mine is a legacy nvidia card, not a new one...
[02:19] <gareth_> cwill747: For Network Manager
[02:19] <joebodo> vasthappydude you should review your x log files to see if there's anything that will help you find the cause of your issue
[02:19] <VastHappyDude> ok
[02:19] <omar> yeah like the problem I had with the trash bin i hat to use what jrib recommended, sudo chown -R $USER: ~/.local/share/Trash/
[02:19] <cypherus> does anybody here have any experience using Motion or Zoneminder?
[02:19] <jrib> user1949: right, that's what it seems like.  It's only using one gpu afaict (maybe the error is just wrong)

[02:23] <PeskyJ> I have a machine with a 300GB drive in it, but the drive is nowhere near full and I want to replace it with a 160G drive so I can re-use the 300G one... is there a program that I can duplicate the used parts of the 300G drive onto the 160G drive, so that it still boots and everything?
[02:23] <VastHappyDude> jobodo: so i type in "xorg.conf" or "xconf"?
[02:24] <counterdutch> frogzoo.. answer on a tweak network setting
[02:24] <jrib> omar: it usually only happens if you sudo things you should not

[02:27] <gavagai> Do my compiz settings suck resources even if i am playing a full screen game?  that is, if i turn on all these effects, will they slow down other programs even when you can't see the desktop?

[02:28] <Noxilenticus> God doesn't make Ubuntu, Computer Scientists, Software Engineers, and Computer Engineers make ubuntu :)
[02:28] <mindrape> mroc - does it show up in dmesg?  lspci?  lsmod?

[02:29] <luddite> there are no computer scientists
[02:29] <joebodo> frogzoo i did not see god on the developers list either
[02:29] <Noxilenticus> oh then my major is imaginary then luddite
[02:29] <gavagai> Dr_willis, thanks.  i guess i'll check my game framerates with it on and off.  incidentally how do you shut compiz off completely?  just go into the appearance prefs and turn the display settings all the way down?

[02:30] <Dr_willis> gavagai,  ther is the 'none' setting  check box.. i never use compiz
[02:30] <joebodo> gavagai yes - turn effects to none

[02:30] <mindrape> mroc - hold... lemme see if I can find the driver it should be using
[02:30] <luddite> can they prove something with testing? that is reproducible cslk / Noxilenticus ?

[02:31] <temppy> PeskyJ: I dunno.  Grub uses mount points
[02:31] <omar> mroc http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Download
[02:31] <omar> I hope it works for you
[02:31] <omar> I did for me
[02:31] <omar> it did
[02:31] <FloodBot3> omar: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:31] <gavagai> PeskyJ, if things were broken it wouldn't be clonezilla's fault!  :)  if you move your bootable partitions (not just resize them) then you will have to change your grub config
[02:31] <mindrape> mroc - did you follow this guide?  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Device/LinksysWUSB11
[02:31] <Gerden> does anybody could heko ne with the instalation of Ubuntu???
[02:31] <mroc> omar: same adapter?

[02:31] <dragonmc> say, how come i have to setup my ip settings through the network connections icon in my tray area every time i restart my computer?  how can i make it stick permanently?
[02:32] <mroc> mindrape: no...somehow i managed to not find that page.
[02:32] <jtisme> Gerden, dual boot on ubuntu alone on one disk
[02:32] <gavagai> PeskyJ, but get an answer from someone who really knows.  i just know clonezilla can be very good for imaging and stuff
[02:32] <wispy> Cannot open your terminal '/dev/pts/1' - please check.
[02:32] <Noxilenticus> luddite: computers are here to calculate complex numbers... computer scientists often do research in the fields of other majors like the biomedical field in which we develop algorithms that act like immune systems
[02:32] <mindrape> mroc - another one https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[02:32] <PeskyJ> gavagai: sounds like that's the program I need then...
[02:33] <Noxilenticus> there is a lot of science involved with branches like that
[02:33] <gavagai> PeskyJ, yes it is very easy and fast

[02:33] <hkittysmoothie> Bluetooth manager is able to find my wacom tablet when the tablet is in "connecting" mode, and after a few minutes it says that the connection was successful. However, the light on my tablet is still blinking (meaning it hasn't actually connected) and there is no functionality. How can I fix this?
[02:33] <PeskyJ> gavagai: and no loss in trying because the original disc won't be harmed
[02:33] <Noxilenticus> if you want to build a missle luddite guess who uses "Physics" to develop the algorithms to locate where it's going to hit?

[02:33] <Gerden> i am trying to execute Ubuntu from a live CD, But when i try to instal or execute it , it goes to the BusyBox. what can I do?
[02:33] <mroc> mindrape: does that second one mention the amtel chipset or wusb11 v 2.6 adapter?  it doesn't seem to
[02:34] <Noxilenticus> sorry bazhang but i had to defend my major i'll shut up now
[02:34] <Leefma> Question: What in ubuntu, controls how fast your curser moves when you hold down a key? (holding down delete, arrow, a letter, etc)? Since installing 8.10 my curse goes _very_ fast. I can delete a whole sentence by accident.
[02:34] <luddite> Noxilenticus : you mean to make it miss its target more than it hits>
[02:34] <PeskyJ> Gerden: do you get I/O errors trying to read the CD?
[02:34] <gavagai> Gerden, i am not a guru on installing but i always just give up and try the alternate cd.  i see no advantage in installing from the livecd
[02:34] <luddite> probably computer non-scientists
[02:34] <counterdutch> are there raedabla ubuntu channels? so many bots here :P
[02:34] <bazhang> Gerden, did you md5 the iso and do a disk integrity check after burning the cd at a very low speed?

[02:36] <storrgie> jtisme: yes
[02:36] <phloat> Does ubuntu have floppy disc support? I need to get information onto a floppy disc and it won't show up...
[02:36] <PeskyJ> Gerden: I had the same issue when installing ubuntu, and the disc was fine (installed on a different machine ok) - it turned out to be the CD drive, the drivers that load during installation weren't compatible, you could try swapping the CD drive for another if you have one
[02:36] <mroc> mindrape: sorry...i've been spelling it wrong.  it's atmel.  and i get the following: insmod /lib/modules/2.6.27-8-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/atmel.ko
[02:36] <jtisme> storrgie, in the past yes
[02:36] <storrgie> jtisme: you have done this?
[02:36] <jtisme> storrgie, i hav in the past
[02:36] <mindrape> mroc - how about when you sudo iwconfig now?

[02:37] <luke__> does anyone know how to setup screenlets?
[02:37] <mindrape> mroc - manually configure it from the commandline....          sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid YOURSSID
[02:37] <luke__> i have searched but nothing too useful
[02:37] <mindrape> mroc - you can also              sudo iwlist wlan0 scan
[02:37] <joebodo> !floppy

[02:38] <jtisme> storrgie, that was a question
[02:38] <mroc> mindrape: i've had issues with it too.
[02:38] <jtisme> storrgie, they only connect to each other?

[02:41] <laobing> hello
[02:41] <storrgie> jtisme: any particular addresses i should use, i would like to put them on a seperate subnet. the AP i connect to is not secure and is used by many people
[02:41] <joebodo> stuart i believe it's in /etc/resolv.conf
[02:42] <luke__> i have installed what the forums said to install but still no luck

[02:42] <gareth_> I have just upgraded to 8.10, and now I have not network manager, anyone know how to fix this?
[02:42] <mindrape> luke__ no error messages?
[02:42] <Gerden> sorry, where can i download the alternate??
[02:42] <P> hello, how come webmin dodesn't work on my comp?
[02:42] <jtisme> storrgie, sure  192.168.2.X  or  10.0.0.X
[02:42] <luke__> none
[02:42] <mindrape> luke__ pull up a console and           sudo apt-get install strace                    strace screenlets
[02:42] <bazhang> P use ebox
[02:42] <cordor> i have problem with wine-doors. is there anyone can help?
[02:42] <mindrape> strace will do a system trace to determine what is going on behind the scenes.
[02:42] <jackbeslow> for instance if I try running firefox and vlc at the same time whichever I opened last wont have sound
[02:43] <joebodo> Eressolar you should be able to escape the : by doing this \:
[02:43] <joebodo> !webmin | P

[02:43] <mindrape> hi chen
[02:43] <Guest93223> !ebox
[02:43] <Gerden> i am downloading the alternate cd....will it work???
[02:43] <bazhang> Gerden, you can try
[02:43] <jpatota> ive got this problem with gnome and ubuntu 8.10 where when i unmaxamize a window open for the first time the top appears under the top panel which causes me to have to move the panel to move the rouge window. any thoughts?
[02:43] <stuart> have any of you guys experienced not being able to surf, but can irc, msn, etc?
[02:43] <Guest93223> ty
[02:43] <mindrape> Gerden - usually the alternate cd (console install) is much "safer" and likely to work than awful GUI installers.
[02:44] <mindrape> stuart - never.
[02:44] <storrgie> jtisme: if i use 10.0.0.x what subnet should i choose and should i just make 1 the dns?
[02:44] <stuart> dang, i can't seem to surf on ubuntu now. but i can irc and msn just fine
[02:44] <Sir_Sid> jpatota, do you have 2 monitors?
[02:44] <PeskyJ> Gerden: did you try plugging in a different physical CD drive?
[02:44] <Sir_Sid> Because I had that problem a lot
[02:44] <Sir_Sid> So I moved both bars to the bottom
[02:44] <luke__> ok now i see the screenlet manager
[02:45] <Gerden> thank you very much for your time and help
[02:45] <luke__> how did that command pull it up
[02:45] <mindrape> luke__ good to know.
[02:45] <Eressolar> joebodo: No luck with \: , but it's not big deal. I'll just use a hyphen as a seperator instead
[02:45] <luke__> because i dont see it in the system pref.
[02:45] <jpatota> Sir_Sid: no just one
[02:45] <mindrape> luke__ maybe your launcher for strace is passing a bad parameter
[02:45] <mindrape> err screenlet
[02:45] <jtisme> storrgie, 10.0.0  the last zero is the subnet and yes you could make the dns address 1 and start the nic addresses say above 10 or something like that
[02:45] <gareth_> Anyone know how to get network manager, I just upgraded to 8.10 and now it is gone
[02:45] <mindrape> strace will show what is going on behind the scenes... try just running screenlet without strace
[02:45] <luke__> is that the command?
[02:46] <mindrape> luke__ apparently so if strace screenlet works
[02:46] <luke__> just "screenlet"
[02:46] <jtisme> storrgie, but if the are both connected to each other what would u need dns for
[02:46] <IndyGunFreak> gareth_: it should still be in the notification area on the panel
[02:46] <mindrape> luke__ type                which screenlet
[02:46] <storrgie> i think you have to specify dns right?

[02:47] <mindrape> nintendork32: you mean you launch a GUI app from terminal?   Just throw a & after the command... ie;                firefox &

[02:48] <chris4585> Are there any differences between the sources.list file from a 32bit and 64bit install?
[02:48] <jtisme> storrgie, yes  box1:nic1  <IP_ADDRESS>  box2:nic1  <IP_ADDRESS>
