[06:39] <nickrud> onewaytolive17, go to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 . That is a complete set of sources. Replace the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list with those.
[06:39] <n0ctuRnaL-fieNd> tao36: no but the first time i was installing i did the oem install , it didnt have a gui , so then i did a server install and it didnt have the gui either , so now i know the text mode has what i want

[06:47] <realcoolguy> I wonder if it has something to do with the widescreen?

[06:57] <arigo>  right now I'm on the net through dial-up by looking through the snyaptic package manager, finding wvdial and running wvdial in a terminal.  Is using wvdial the best way to connect?

I'm quite the noob, and ubuntu installed so easily I learned nothing about it on the way
[06:57] <cef> is there some sort of graphical manager for grub? ie: to edit the grub config using the gui instead of manually editing it with vi or something?
[06:57] <dibblego> dooglus, righto, doing that now

[06:58] <Dial_tone> whats the command to load a module?

[06:58] <dooglus> Ap0s7le: FreeNX lets you log on to your ubuntu desktop from windows

[06:58] <cfrun> Ap0s71le: google CygWIN
[06:58] <nanotube> avis: thanks for looking. well, i guess that doesn't bode well for my being able to set a kb shortcut for suspend...
[06:58] <dooglus> Ap0s7le: or you can use x11vnc, but that doesn't use ssh
[06:58] <mattyv> diff wireless cards use diff chipsets, i know some revisions of linksys use broadcom, ill find a link with some info
[06:58] <houseoftainted_> nickrud,  but im in the apt directory
[06:58] <nickrud> houseoftainted_, it's all one line, it got wrapped by your irc client
[06:58] <cfrun> anyone know how to add a variable field for LOCAL_DELIVERY in the update-exim4.conf.conf file?
[06:58] <cef> cfrun: it's also one of those things that newbies will probaby get confused over too
[06:59] <Ap0s7le> It's on my local network, I was just told it's possible through SSH and so that's why I asked the question the way I did. Thanks a alot :)
[06:59] <DemonHeadx> ok thank you very much mattyv
[06:59] <dibblego> I still get the segmentation fault for libgtk2.0-bin
[06:59] <dibblego> which I think is unavoidable
[06:59] <nanotube> DemonHeadx: you might have good luck if you go and search for linksys <yourmodelnumber> in the ubuntuforums (ubuntuforums.org). you might come up with a howto or something.
[06:59] <avis> nanotube, perhaps if your keyboard had a suspend/sleep button it might have an option ?  or perhaps you can define another keyboard definition to add that ?  dkpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:59] <cfrun> cef: well, considering it is a pretty vital file, it would be nice to have a GUI
[06:59] <Ap0s7le> What should I use, like which is the best choice?
[06:59] <bytewalker> is there a special menu or something to configure ll the laptop stuff like Cpu temp threshold n stuff like that?
[06:59] <houseoftainted_> nickrud, ok what should have happened?
[06:59] <cef> cfrun: exactly.
[06:59] <n0ctuRnaL-fieNd> ActivitY: nope , i cant really help u with mounting , im having problems mounting my own ntfs drive ,
[06:59] <ActivitY> it's not ntfs
[06:59] <dooglus> Ap0s7le: you can use an ssh connection to run apps on ubuntu and have them display on windows, but you'll need to be running an X server on the windows box for that to work.  (see cygwin, as previously mentioned)
[07:00] <ActivitY> (my drive)
[07:00] <cfrun> Ap0s7le: It's user's preference.  I've used cygwin and like it well enough, but it can be clunky.
[07:00] <ActivitY> i'll keep hammering away, i'll let you know if i find out
[07:00] <nickrud> houseoftainted_, it will safely preserve your original /etc/apt/sources.list, and then open them in an editor for you to change to the ones on the pastebin site
[07:00] <dooglus> Ap0s7le: using FreeNX or x11vnc you can see your whole ubuntu desktop on the windows machine, not just individual apps)
[07:00] <mattyv> Demon, i suspect u have a broadcom, as i do also, look at this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx
[07:00] <nanotube> avis: my actual sleep button (supposed to be Fn-Esc) does nothing. so on breezy i was able to just set a diff shortcut for sleep, because the sleep item was in the panel. on dapper, that's gone. and looking in gconf, i see that it says "the schema is missing"
[07:00] <Ap0s7le> Sweet
[07:00] <n0ctuRnaL-fieNd> ActivitY: i know , im just saying im not really familiar with mounting
[07:00] <cfrun> Last call for any exim4 gurus....anyone wanna help?
[07:01] <dooglus> Ap0s7le: nx is much faster than vnc, but since you're on the LAN that's probably not a concern.
[07:01] <arigo> ok, how about this simple question. How do I even disconnect from the net if I used wvdial to connect?
[07:01] <DemonHeadx> ok let me check this out mattyv
[07:01] <avis> ok, nanotube... it sounds like you know more about this than myself.  only thing i could think of was using another keyboard definition
[07:01] <Ap0s7le> awesome
[07:01] <houseoftainted_> ok i just replace it then?
[07:01] <nickrud> cfrun, there's a sample assignment in  update-exim4.conf.conf
[07:02] <Ap0s7le> FreeNX would allow me to use the whole desktop though, like I was sitting at that machine?
[07:02] <nikkun> does anyone know why i get this error everytime i ./configure? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16316
[07:02] <cfrun> nickrud: I don't see anything in my .conf.conf that relates to LOCAL_DELIVERY though :-/
[07:02] <houseoftainted_> nickrud,  ok so i jsut replace em entirely?
[07:02] <ActivitY> @n0ctuRnaL-fieNd: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=200080
[07:02] <arigo> ...
[07:02] <nickrud> cfrun, see CFILEMODE='644' ? like that
[07:02] <dooglus> ActivitY: you need to specify which partition you want to mount.  /dev/sdb sounds like the whole disk.  do you mean /dev/sdb1 ?
[07:02] <ActivitY> no, i want to mount the whole disk
[07:03] <ActivitY> i brought a new drive for backing up
[07:03] <nanotube> avis: well, thanks a lot for trying, anyway. you're doing better than everyone else here in this regard, at any rate. ;)
[07:03] <nickrud> cfrun, now, just what the assignment should be is another question :)
[07:03] <ActivitY> it's not going to do anything but hold info
[07:03] <cfrun> nickrud: No, I'm looking for the option that lets me split mail in to $home/maildir or mbox
[07:03] <ActivitY> well, data
[07:03] <dooglus> ActivitY: disks have partitions, partitions have file systems.  it's file systems you mount.  you need to specify which partition holds the file system you want to mount.
[07:03] <n0ctuRnaL-fieNd> ActivitY: ty , ill give that a try
[07:03] <ActivitY> the drive has one partition i think
[07:03] <dooglus> ActivitY: use "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdb" to see the partition list
[07:03] <avis> nanotube, your very welcome.  i felt sorry for the guy with the exim problem as well.  i was going to say "your problem of not getting an answer is the story of my life :)"
[07:03] <ActivitY> ext2 off the top of my head
[07:03] <nanotube> Ap0s7le: yes, you would use the whole desktop, as if you were sitting at it. (only maybe with a bit of lag :) )
[07:04] <ActivitY> but the partition takes the whole drive up
[07:04] <DemonHeadx> matyv
[07:04] <dooglus> ActivitY: it doesn't matter
[07:04] <Ap0s7le> That's very cool
[07:04] <houseoftainted_> nickrud,  ok so i jsut replace em entirely?
[07:04] <cwillu> how do you search backwards in less?
[07:04] <avis> ubuntuforums.org is not bad at all and i have heard here that the ubuntu mailing lists are very good.
[07:04] <nanotube> avis: yea, i always feel sad when someone asks a question i can't help with. so what's your question today? maybe i can help ;)
[07:04] <Frogzoo> ?
[07:04] <dooglus> ActivitY: list the partitions using that fdisk command - you'll probably find sdb1 is the one you want
[07:04] <nickrud> cfrun, maildir delivery, a sec.
[07:04] <ActivitY> ok
[07:04] <ActivitY> *tries*
[07:04] <cfrun> cwillu I think it's the '\'
[07:04] <Ap0s7le> nanotube, Do I need to install anything on my windows machine to use that?
[07:05] <Frogzoo> cwillu: use N to search next backwards
[07:05] <cfrun> nickrud: Thanks a bunch!
[07:05] <nickrud> cfrun, it's been a while since I set it up, it was fire and forget. a sec
[07:05] <mattyv> huh?
[07:05] <ActivitY> ...whoa
[07:05] <cwillu> right, thanks :)
[07:05] <DemonHeadx> hmm, it wants me to download something but how can i? if i cannot connect to the router to get the internet?
[07:05] <nanotube> Ap0s7le: well yes, you need to install freenx on both ends in order to use it.
[07:05] <nikkun> does anyone know why i get this error everytime i ./configure? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16316
[07:05] <cwillu> for some reason it was escaping me :)
[07:05] <ActivitY> mikus@m1k3:~$ fdisk sdb
[07:05] <ActivitY> Unable to open sdb
[07:05] <arigo>  right now I'm on the net through dial-up by looking through the snyaptic package manager, finding wvdial and running wvdial in a terminal.  Is using wvdial the best way to connect? Is there a way to make it an icon? And is there a way to add the packages as icons inside synaptic package manager?
[07:05] <avis> nanotube.. hmm, a simple one.  is something like a dns server on a desktop such as bind over a pppoe connection authenticated over a 1 subnet wired/less router difficult for a person who hasn't had much more than basic networking experience ?
[07:06] <mattyv> ah, catch 22, any possibility of connecting by ethernet temporarily
[07:06] <Ap0s7le> nanotube, but I don't see anything to be installed on their site for Windows.   HA!
[07:06] <avis> houseoftainted_, watch your language
[07:06] <cwillu> yay for cat */*/*/* | less
[07:07] <DemonHeadx> um
[07:07] <DemonHeadx> yea i guess i can
[07:07] <houseoftainted_> avis,  im just getting frustrated
[07:07] <nickrud> houseoftainted_, you can return to the original by   cd /etc/apt && sudo cp sources.list.original sources.list
[07:07] <ActivitY> dooglus: can i pm you?
[07:07] <nickrud> houseoftainted_, but that's the change you must make
[07:07] <avis> i'm sorry houseoftainted_ its just channel rules.  family channel.
[07:07] <Ap0s7le> Thanks, you're a great help dooglus!
[07:07] <houseoftainted_> nickrud,  Couldn't stat source package list
[07:07] <dooglus> cwillu: that will only find files which are exactly 3 levels down from where you are...  find . -type f -exec cat '{}' ';' | less   is better :)
[07:08] <dooglus> ActivitY: sure
[07:08] <houseoftainted_> nickrud,  im getting that error spammed on the page
[07:08] <nickrud> houseoftainted_, did you do sudo apt-get update ?
[07:08] <cwillu> dooglus: which is exactly what I wanted in this case, but thanks :)
[07:08] <dooglus> ActivitY: you need to be registered, or I won't see it
[07:08] <DemonHeadx> Mattyv: ok connected with the router via ethernet cable.
[07:08] <cfrun> werd to dooglus.  find rocks.
[07:08] <Ap0s7le> Will is be that easy to install on Ubuntu?
[07:08] <ActivitY> i am registered
[07:08] <arigo> it's easy to install it
[07:08] <nanotube> avis: i never had to do quite what you describe, but i suspect that you can find some tutorials or documentation online that will walk you through it. ...
[07:08] <arigo> but from where I am, it's not easy to use ;P
[07:08] <cwillu> houseoftainted_:  have you done an apt-get update?
[07:08] <nickrud> houseoftainted_, lets try this: paste your /etc/apt/sources.list on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:08] <arigo> i'm not at all impressed yet ;P gnome is not intuitive and the fact it's all just installed for you means you know how to do nothing!
[07:09] <mattyv> Demon: if u can get on the internet easily that way, apt-get should handle anything u need to install
[07:09] <cfrun> KDE is bettah.
[07:09] <DemonHeadx> mattyv: negative i cannot connect either with the ethernet. do i have to set it up?
[07:09] <sportman_> should i just upgrade to breezy
[07:09] <sportman_> :(I
[07:10] <nickrud> cfrun, I can't even find the right help yet ;(
[07:10] <DemonHeadx> mattyv: or does it set it self up?
[07:10] <avis> nanotube, ok.  thank you.  reason i ask is i'm paying for a bnc/web hosting daemon on a freebsd shell account and thought it would be nice to host it myself.  granted, i dont push high bandwidth on the domain i'd like to run a web server on.
[07:10] <nikkun> does anyone know why i get this error everytime i ./configure? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16316
[07:10] <mattyv> depends, if you're using dhcp it will usually set it up automagically, need to configure otherwise
[07:10] <cfrun> nickrud: heh, well thanks for trying...if you have any input on the Ubuntu dev net, you might suggest they put that in the .conf.conf
[07:10] <cfrun> it's very necessary when configuring dovecot
[07:11] <SpeedyIndy> how safe is it to write to a NTFS drive using ubuntu+fuse+ntfsprogs?
[07:11] <DemonHeadx> mattyv:yes i am using DHCP but still it didn't configure its self..
[07:11] <Strayhikari> Does anyone know a way to force a monitor to use a higher resolution?
[07:11] <Dial_tone> higher than what
[07:11] <nanotube> Ap0s7le: http://nomachine.com/download.php (get the nx client for windows)
[07:11] <avis> nikkun, yes.  you need to "apt-get update ; apt-get gnome-desktop"
[07:11] <cfrun> Strayhikary /etc/xorg.conf
[07:11] <DemonHeadx> mattyv: ok its working now
[07:11] <cfrun> I think that's the conf file anyway
[07:11] <Frogzoo> Strayhikari: setting horizsync/vertrefresh can allow the use of higher res modes
[07:12] <nikkun> avis: why do i need gnome?
[07:12] <Frogzoo> !fixres
[07:12] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (GNOME), sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart (KDE) To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[07:12] <houseoftainted_> nickrud, ok what file do i search for? its all working ifne
[07:12] <avis> nikkun, well you dont, just whatever x server that you use.  my bad.
[07:12] <Ap0s7le> Thank you nanotube :)
[07:12] <nickrud> cfrun, I remember now: I used procmail to drop mail into my maildirs, I only had to add my dc_smarthost and set up passwd.client.
[07:12] <Strayhikari> Frogzoo: Linux doesn't detect my monitor so its just assumes it is to be a 1024x769 montiro
[07:12] <Strayhikari> I'll try to edit my xorg.conf
[07:12] <nanotube> avis: well, if all you need the dns for is for it to point to some webserver, can't you just get the place you bought the domain for to point it to an ip of your choice? why do you need a dns server?
[07:12] <Strayhikari> *768
[07:12] <cfrun> nickrud: D0h.  Well ok thanks again mate
[07:13] <nanotube> Ap0s7le: no prob :)
[07:13] <nickrud> cfrun, I'm lazy, easy way forward for me
[07:13] <Frogzoo> Strayhikari: read the fixres wiki ^^^
[07:13] <Ap0s7le> I'm installing Ubuntu now...
[07:13] <arigo> can people see me type?
[07:13] <sportman_> nope
[07:13] <timboteam> yes
[07:13] <Frogzoo> arigo: see what?
[07:13] <sportman_> def can't
[07:13] <sportman_> lol
[07:13] <sportman_> haha
[07:13] <sportman_> ;)
[07:13] <avis> nanotube you'd think it would be as simple as that but then isn't nothing as simple as that ?  e.g. the default mail transport system, etc.  :)
[07:13] <cfrun> yeah true.  I just don't wanna run procmail or fetchmail
[07:14] <nickrud> houseoftainted_,  install sun-java5-bin and sun-java5-plugin
[07:14] <cfrun> well, if I weren't so darn scared of editing the exim4.conf file, I'd just do that, but I'd rather let the scripts do it for me
[07:14] <cfrun> safer that way
[07:14] <nanotube> avis: well, i guess maybe it depends on who you bought the domain from, but i am able to configure detailed dns records thgouh my domain provider. so... maybe you can too. have you looked?
[07:15] <garryF> No but we can see the letters after you typed. Only those looking at you can see you type.
[07:15] <nikkun> avis: i get an error from apt when i try and update kde
[07:16] <avis> nanotube, nope i sure havent.  and for what its worth i used godaddy.  and btw, that would solve alot of problems because my pppoe is bound to dyndns.org in my router upon a successful network start.
[07:16] <cfrun> Welp, thanks for the effort nickrud.  I'm off to search blogs and stuff.
[07:16] <avis> nikkun, what is the error ?
[07:16] <elkbuntu> wow
[07:16] <wizardjames> wow..
[07:16] <wizardjames> NETSPLIT
[07:16] <nanotube> wow
[07:16] <elkbuntu> nice netsplit
[07:16] <garryF> Hmm, there goes some nasty bot atac?
[07:16] <nanotube> :)
[07:16] <cfrun> sphuuuuhhhhlitttt!
[07:16] <nickrud> cfrun, luck
[07:17] <houseoftainted_> O.o
[07:17] <wizardjames> keke niven dies
[07:17] <nikkun> avis: it was saying the dependencies werent met
[07:17] <wizardjames> niven.freenode.net dies
[07:18] <elkbuntu> only 167 split
[07:18] <garryF> Holy cow
[07:18] <wizardjames> ahhh
[07:18] <NickGarvey> !netsplit
[07:18] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[07:18] <avis> if the dependencies weren't meant when you tried to update kde-desktop i wouldn't know how to fix that from what i believed its usually resolved for you.
[07:18] <nanotube> anyone know what acpi_fakekey is supposed to be? that's what presumably gets called when i press the sleep button...
[07:18] <dooglus> I saw 590 split
[07:18] <NickGarvey> know what sucks?
[07:18] <NickGarvey> gaim logs my chat convos
[07:18] <NickGarvey> guess its time to start clearing :)
[07:19] <nikkun> avis: im getting a kde-desktop not found error when i run that
[07:19] <dooglus> you can ask it not to
[07:19] <garryF> If the person you were helping or getting help from gets split away from ye?
[07:19] <dooglus> nikkun: you need to install the X includes...
[07:19] <dooglus> nikkun: nothing to do with gnome :)
[07:19] <dooglus> nikkun: (or kde)
[07:19] <avis> nikkun -- ok.  no problem.  you just need the package name of the x server.  someone here should be kind enough to tell you
[07:19] <dooglus> nikkun: it's x11proto-core-dev:
[07:20] <nikkun> dooglus: im pritty sure i apt that already
[07:20] <dooglus> nikkun: try it again?
[07:20] <nikkun> ok
[07:20] <Flannel> xserver-xorg I believe
[07:20] <dooglus> nikkun: what are you trying to build?
[07:20] <nikkun> dooglus: do i need to reboot after adding the lib or something
[07:20] <dooglus> nikkun: no
[07:20] <nikkun> it has given me teh error for everythign i try and build
[07:21] <avis> dooglus, i believe he needs the kde desktop base
[07:21] <dooglus> nikkun: but for building, the dependencies you need end with '-dev'
[07:21] <nikkun> i assumed that much
[07:21] <nikkun> i apt-get install x-dev
[07:21] <nikkun> witch got that one
[07:21] <nikkun> but it still didnt work
[07:21] <dooglus> avis: I missed some when the netsplit happened - is the error still "checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes."?
[07:21] <dooglus> nikkun: so is the error still the same?
[07:21] <nikkun> yep
[07:22] <avis> yes dooglus but disregard my diagnostics i was unaware of his goals
[07:22] <dooglus> nikkun: give me an example of something you're trying to build
[07:22] <nikkun> dooglus: right now superkaramba
[07:23] <dooglus> nikkun: did you try using build-dep to get the dependencies?
[07:23] <nikkun> dooglus: no what is the command for that?
[07:23] <dooglus> nikkun: 1. edit /etc/apt/sources.list, adding "deb-src" lines for each "deb" line
[07:24] <dooglus> nikkun: 2. sudo apt-get update
[07:24] <dooglus> nikkun: 3. sudo apt-get build-dep superkaramba
[07:24] <peanutb> how do i tell the % of RAM im using?
[07:24] <nikkun> i have the sources
[07:24] <nikkun> superkaramba is not in the repositories
[07:24] <dooglus> nikkun: this isn't to get the sources, it's to be the dependencies

[07:25] <cyphase> argh
[07:25] <allnickstaken> what does this mean?
[07:26] <nickrud> allnickstaken, it probably means you have synaptic or the update-manager opne
[07:26] <allnickstaken> accidentally closed my window
[07:26] <q_a_z_steve> okay so I just installed Breezy last night and I'm going to probably use the upgrade manager I guess. My question is this: I want to use Bootpart to have Win2k as well as Dapper on this computer, but can I use GRUB???
[07:26] <cyphase> i'm waiting for a new card
[07:26] <allnickstaken> thanks, that i do nickrud
[07:27] <dooglus> q_a_z_steve: grub can dual boot linux and windows, if that's the question
[07:27] <timboteam> Does anyone know about network manager? I need help connecting to wireless.
[07:27] <q_a_z_steve> Windows has to be the primary for it to work seamless though doesn't it?
[07:27] <Ap0s7le> I just went to boot and it said "Grub Error 18" dangit
[07:27] <allnickstaken> now it says I can't the package doesn't exist even tho I'm copying it word for word from support website, ughh
[07:27] <q_a_z_steve> !grub
[07:27] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:28] <allnickstaken> can't get rather
[07:28] <burepe1> I installed banshee and I want to add some plugins. I am lookin at the plugin page and it has some urls. Can I add these plugins using the urls with apt-get? If not how do I do it?
[07:28] <nickrud> allnickstaken, what package?
[07:28] <allnickstaken> gnome-ppp
[07:29] <timboteam> Does anyone know how to connect to wireless with ubuntu?
[07:29] <burepe1> oops I installed banshee and I want to add some plugins. I am lookin at the plugin page and it has some urls. Can I add these plugins using the urls with apt-get? If not how do I do it?  Here is the page wth the plug ins http://www.banshee-project.org/Plugins
[07:29] <peanutb> how do i tell the % of RAM im using?
[07:29] <burepe1> !wireless
[07:29] <ubotu> Documentation for wireless networking can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs
[07:29] <Flannel> peanutb: top
[07:29] <nickrud> allnickstaken, that's in universe, but it's pretty old. Why are you using it
[07:29] <nayif> after i upgrade ubuntu to dapper i dont notcie all features on clean one?
[07:29] <q_a_z_steve> peanutb: torsmo
[07:29] <nickrud> allnickstaken, I mean, is there a particular reason?
[07:29] <nayif> like password keeper
[07:29] <burepe1> !japanese
[07:29] <allnickstaken> what am I supposed to use? I read it was a frontend for wvdial
[07:29] <ubotu> I know nothing about japanese
[07:30] <peanutb> flannel, thanks, i knew i had seen it somewhere
[07:30] <Flannel> !jp
[07:30] <ubotu> I know nothing about jp
[07:30] <dooglus> nayif: what if you make a new user and log in as that?  do you see all the feature then?
[07:30] <nickrud> allnickstaken, I believe that ubuntu has a ppp dialer built in, under system-admin-networking.
[07:30] <q_a_z_steve> !lilo
[07:30] <ubotu> lilo is an alternative [Li] nux Boot[Lo] ader. Note: it is recommended that you use GRUB on Ubuntu instead.
[07:30] <allnickstaken> that doesn't work. it doesn't detect my modem
[07:31] <nickrud> allnickstaken, that's probably a problem with the modem. what type is it?
[07:31] <q_a_z_steve> anyone know any bootpart channels or someone I can ask about using GRUB?
[07:31] <nayif> dooglus, oh i did not think like that,i will try this
[07:31] <allnickstaken> usrobotics software. Why does wvdial work fine then?
[07:32] <nickrud> allnickstaken, if it already worked, good.
[07:32] <dooglus> nayif: I'm thinking that the features you're missing are due to your user having old GNOME config files.
[07:32] <nickrud> allnickstaken, anyway, gnome-ppp is in universe.
[07:34] <hollowman8904> how do you get wireless working in ubuntu
[07:35] <bytewalker> anyone gotten wireless working with a broadcom??
[07:35] <bytewalker> im havin some probs
[07:35] <hollowman8904> thats what i have
[07:35] <steveO> bytewalker: I had problems too!
[07:35] <allnickstaken> I don't know how I'm supposed to specify universe nickrud.  This is what I was told to enter in terminal to install the frontend: sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp   what is wrong with it?
[07:35] <steveO> I couldn't make my Dell laptop w/ a broadcom work..
[07:35] <bytewalker> ndiswrapper -l says driver and hardware present
[07:36] <q_a_z_steve> what's the equivalent to /etc/lilo.conf with GRUB?
[07:36] <bytewalker> BUT when i ifup wlan0  i get SIOCSIFADDR: No such device ...blah blah blah!!
[07:36] <nickrud> allnickstaken, nothing at all. If you have the right repos and sections enabled. take a look at the message from ubotu, it has some links to what universe is and and how to enable it
[07:36] <bytewalker> lspci -l shows the same address as on the list
[07:36] <bytewalker> WTF?!?!?
[07:36] <steveO> edit your sources.list
[07:36] <nickrud> !universe allnickstaken
[07:36] <ubotu> I know nothing about universe allnickstaken
[07:36] <nickrud> !universe > allnickstaken
[07:36] <allnickstaken> thanks
[07:36] <nickrud> new syntax
[07:38] <bytewalker> cmon someone here HAS to have a broadcom wireless too:(
[07:40] <allnickstaken> I went to edit the sources.list file and uncommented out what i was supposed to as said by link. However, It doesn't let me save it because I don't have permission. ughh
[07:40] <KenSentMe> Does anyone know how i can paste html in an Evolution mail so i can send it as a html mail?
[07:41] <varsendaggr> hey how do i posturize with gimp?
[07:41] <dooglus> allnickstaken: "sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"
[07:41] <KenSentMe> !tell allnickstaken about root
[07:41] <Flannel> dooglus, allnickstaken, gksudo
[07:41] <allnickstaken> thanks, I can't use the text editor huh
[07:41] <dooglus> Flannel: I prefer sudo.
[07:41] <nickrud> allnickstaken, gksudo "gedit /etc/sources.list" Another message coming ;)
[07:41] <houseoftainted_> nickrud,  it just got done downloading all of this crap when i put apt get
[07:41] <nickrud> !root > allnickstaken
[07:41] <Flannel> dooglus: sudo for graphical apps breaks them.
[07:41] <dooglus> allnickstaken: gedit is the text editor, but you have to run it as root
[07:41] <dooglus> Flannel: not gedit it doesn't
[07:42] <hollowman8904> what do i do after i ndiswrapper my windows driver for my wireless?
[07:42] <nickrud> if you save any options, you might have issues
[07:42] <Flannel> dooglus: right, but don't confuse newbies with which ones do or dont.  It's fine if you want to tempt fate, provide assistance with best practices though, please.
[07:42] <houseoftainted_> nickrud, Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
[07:42] <Lord-ChewY> hi
[07:43] <Hobbsee> hollowman8904: sudo depmod -a && sudo modprobe ndiswrapper
[07:43] <Lord-ChewY> i got a question, how can i get metacity running?
[07:43] <nickrud> houseoftainted_, try the sudo apt-get -f install  by itself
[07:43] <dooglus> Lord-ChewY: metacity runs when you log in to GNOME
[07:43] <Lord-ChewY> i thought it was nautalus
[07:43] <dooglus> Lord-ChewY: it's what draws the frames on all your windows
[07:43] <Escobar> If I want to use both Ubuntu and Windows (already have windows installed) on the same box...  then what partition method should I choose on Step 5?
[07:43] <dooglus> Lord-ChewY: nautilus is the file manager - the thing that draws the icons
[07:43] <nikkun> dooglus: sorry to bother you again but now im gettting an error with apt saying libsnmp5-dev isnt avalable
[07:44] <Flannel> !tell Escobar about dualboot
[07:44] <dooglus> !info libsnmp5-dev
[07:44] <Flannel> Escobar: that'll get you all the info you need... or, it should.
[07:44] <ubotu> Package libsnmp5-dev does not exist in dapper
[07:44] <hollowman8904> what after depmod and modprobe?
[07:44] <dooglus> nikkun: that a dependency of what package?
[07:44] <Escobar> ok thanks
[07:44] <nikkun> still working on superkaraba
[07:45] <dooglus> nikkun: I'll take a look
[07:45] <nikkun> ok
[07:45] <dooglus> nikkun: did you spell that package name exactly right?
[07:45] <KenSentMe> Does anyone know how i can use my home made html in an email with Evolution?
[07:45] <hollowman8904> what do i do after depmod and modprobe to get my wireless working?
[07:46] <nikkun> yes its libsnmp5-dev
[07:46] <dooglus> nikkun: oh, I see it too.  odd.  very odd.
[07:46] <burepe> what file is "(libdir)" in "$(libdir)/banshee/Banshee.Plugins "?
[07:46] <dooglus> nikkun: all I can guess is that it's not really needed...  what if you try installing all the rest that it lists?
[07:47] <nikkun> dooglus: is there a way i can make it ignore that 1?
[07:47] <dooglus> nikkun: this:  sudo apt-get install $(sudo apt-get build-dep superkaramba 2>/dev/null | grep '^  ')
[07:47] <InnerFIRE> where can i find instructions for networking my linux machine with a windows machine? its a wireless connection
[07:48] <Ademan> are there any other options for the gnome panel "window list" other than what you get from right click->preferences?
[07:48] <dooglus> nikkun: it's kind of cheating, but it'll work
[07:48] <nikkun> ok...
[07:48] <dooglus> nikkun: so long as it doesn't need to prompt you for a password - that might make it fail.
[07:49] <nikkun> dooglus: well i had jsut sudo apt-get somthign so it was safe
[07:49] <dooglus> nikkun: of course, not you've enabled the repositories, you could just install superkaramba from the binary package
[07:49] <nikkun> true
[07:50] <dooglus> nikkun: are you running dapper?

[07:50] <nikkun> i hope i dont run into this problem again then
[07:50] <nikkun> yes
[07:50] <dooglus> nikkun: I've never seen a package have dependencies which didn't exist in a final ubuntu release before.
[07:51] <nikkun> dooglus: is there a specific place i shoudl report this then
[07:51] <Escobar> Is it possible to partition later if i ever decide to resize?
[07:51] <Escobar> to change
[07:51] <InnerFIRE> where can i find instructions for networking my linux machine with a windows machine? its a wireless connection
[07:52] <hollowman8904> how come my sudo password doesn't work for su
[07:52] <Flannel> hollowman8904: because that's not how su works.
[07:52] <shane_> hello,everyone. i dont know why my network response so slowly
[07:52] <q_a_z_steve> !samba > InnerFIRE
[07:53] <hollowman8904> well i have a bunch of commands that require root privlages and dont want to type sudo everytime
[07:53] <nikkun> hollowman8904: i believe sudo -su will get you to it
[07:53] <Flannel> hollowman8904: sudo -i
[07:53] <usama> hi
[07:53] <hollowman8904> thanks

[07:55] <rixth> I have a grpahics question. Can xorg put out WUXGA (1920x1200)? Also, what is the physical screen size of a 24" Wide?
[07:55] <Flannel> usama: ajax is javascript, basically.  javascript that updates the html.  this isn't the place for this sort of question however, #ubuntu-offtopic would be more appropriate
[07:55] <dooglus> nikkun: if the build fails, try installing 'libsnmp9-dev'
[07:55] <elverion> how can i use emerge instead of apt-get?
[07:55] <Flannel> allnickstaken: no.  just sudo apt-get update
[07:55] <killaz> how can I connect to a shared folder via SMB on my  ubuntu desktop?
[07:55] <dooglus> nikkun: I reported it already: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/superkaramba/+bug/50747
[07:55] <tritium> elverion: ubuntu doesn't use emerge
[07:55] <Flannel> elverion: use a different distro

[07:58] <dooglus> nikkun: "apt-get build-dep" is a useful one to know.  saves a lot of hunting.
[07:58] <Flannel> killaz: right, did you read that page?  it tells you all about these problems
[07:58] <killaz> only on this ubuntu desktop I can't see the shared folder...

[07:59] <shane_> i got network problem, could any one help me???
[07:59] <q_a_z_steve> DemonHeadx: are we dealing with A B G N Mimo, tinfoil? what?
[07:59] <ron_> is there a fix for the grey X server startup screen yet ... i've only seen this in older debian based distro's
[07:59] <nikkun> dooglus: its my luck that is all i know since everytime i do somethign that should be simple i find some crazy problem
[07:59] <KenSentMe> shane_: just ask your question
[07:59] <Flannel> killaz: hmm, that's a different page than what it used to be, probably same info though.
[07:59] <ron_> i think it's font related
[07:59] <shane_> usually i get apt-get sucessfully only after ping the target address which in the source.list, how come???
[08:00] <dooglus> nikkun: there are too many problems still - pretty much everywhere you look there's a new one :)
[08:00] <DemonHeadx> steve: did you get that PM?
[08:00] <nikkun> dooglus: ive noticed
[08:00] <shane_> i mean, if i dont use 'ping', it response very slow,and time out finally
[08:01] <tam> hi
[08:01] <shane_> and all the operation just in the terminal...
[08:01] <killaz> Flannel: that page tells me how to make a shared folder.... I want to mount a shared folder on another page...

[08:02] <Laily> how to extract this file from ubuntu? --> avast4workstation-1.0.5.tar.gz
[08:02] <shane_> i thought it's my home networking caused, coz i don't meet the same problem after i change the place.
[08:03] <avis> Laily, tar -xzvf filename.tar.gz
[08:03] <shane_> there should be something wrong with my router, but i dont know how to solve it
[08:03] <killaz> Flannel: my problem is I cant see/find the workgroup..
[08:03] <dooglus> Laily: "tar xf avast4workstation-1.0.5.tar.gz"
[08:03] <shane_> is anyone with me???
[08:04] <Laily> i'm new in linux.
[08:04] <dooglus> shane_: I hear you, but I don't know what the problem could be
[08:04] <Laily> i wanna to try this program
[08:04] <shane_> oh...
[08:04] <allnickstaken> sorry I'm asking so many questions, but doing searches about this gnome-ppp thing I finally was able to get I noticed it said it made the connection slow. Slow as compared to what I don't know? Anyway, why wouldn't the system/admin/networking thing be able to detect my modem when it works fine with wvdial?
[08:04] <DemonHeadx> q_a_z_steve: think you can help?
[08:04] <dooglus> Laily: you found the 'terminal' icon yet?  it's in the applications menu somewhere
[08:05] <JW> Hi
[08:05] <q_a_z_steve> DemonHeadx: Are you using Dapper? Live?
[08:05] <Laily> ok
[08:06] <Laily> i alreay open the konsole
[08:06] <DemonHeadx> no
[08:06] <dooglus> "ls" lists files.  do you see your .tar.gz file?
[08:06] <DemonHeadx> I install Dapper
[08:06] <Laily> nope.
[08:07] <dooglus> Laily: is it on your desktop?
[08:07] <JW> I have a problem with 6.06   dmesg says syslog is filling with "skge hardware error status(0x400)" messages
[08:07] <Laily> ok. now i see it
[08:07] <Thor> score
[08:07] <Thor> glad i installed that firewall
[08:07] <DemonHeadx> q_a_z_steve: no i installed dapper.
[08:08] <dooglus> Laily: then "tar xf whateveritwascalled.tar.gz" to extract it
[08:08] <q_a_z_steve> ANYONE who knows better please feel free to correct me but DemonHeadx needs to use ndiswrapper. And good luck.
[08:08] <q_a_z_steve> !ndiswrapper

[08:08] <bytewalker> guys ok im a noob whats a good p2p program for loonix
[08:08] <q_a_z_steve> uh oh, that's more general than I was hoping for.
[08:09] <dooglus> bytewalker: azureus
[08:09] <Laily> i already did
[08:09] <hollowman8904> how can i convert a wma file to mp3?

[08:09] <Thor> whats the best ubuntu firewall app?
[08:09] <bytewalker> is azureus a real p2p program or just a crappy BT client?
[08:10] <q_a_z_steve> I never knew the FireFrog was on *nix
[08:10] <cwillu> Thor: are you sure you need one?
[08:10] <dooglus> bytewalker: it's a real bt client
[08:10] <dooglus> bytewalker: you think bt isn't p2p?
[08:10] <kevinz> hello. i am trying to compile kernel and the wiki tells me it is better to use git. But i just don't know why using the source packages is worse than using git?
[08:10] <q_a_z_steve> It's beefed up.
[08:10] <lightstar> Thor, iptables..to configure it use firestarter
[08:10] <cwillu> Thor: Windows needs one because you can't turn off certain services from listening on all connected networks, which isn't the case with linux
[08:10] <bytewalker> a BT client cant find the actual songs i want to download
[08:10] <bytewalker> it just d/ls them?
[08:10] <dooglus> bytewalker: yes.
[08:11] <cwillu> Thor: whereas you'd typically only need one on linux unless it's acting as a router or bridge, etc, such that it's actually protecting a network behind it
[08:12] <Laily> should i install any anti virus in my ubuntu? example like clamav or avast?
[08:12] <JW> Why does dmesg report "skge hardware error status (0X400)"?
[08:12] <gavagai> Laily, no
[08:12] <babo> Is there anyway to have an alarm set on my computer that can be activated by a web application via my browser ? ... Basically I just want my web app to remind me when a certain time arrives ...
[08:13] <Laily> i'm using a laptop pentium 3. yesterday i purchase a pcmia wifi card ( Aztech ). is it auto detect or should i configure?
[08:13] <cwillu> Laily: re antivirus: we're still in the early enough days that it's not really essential, but it won't be like that forever

[08:22] <bulltitan> hi
[08:23] <bulltitan> if i have to buy one what will you say? cedega or winex? and what winex really does?
[08:23] <InnerFIRE> why does configuring everything in linux always have to be 20 times harder.. lol
[08:23] <InnerFIRE> did u say i could configure everything from swat?
[08:24] <tin_nqn> I've downloaded the source of subtitle editor, wich is a gtk2 soft, but I can't install it because LIBGSTREAMER >= 0.10
[08:25] <bulltitan> is winex like cedega for directx games?
[08:25] <tin_nqn> and breezy has until 0.8
[08:25] <solid_liq> anyone know how to set the sizes of columns in an html table?
[08:25] <killaz> InnerFIRE: well I have to say I have configure samba on my server without any problem.. but configuring samba for my desktop..... gives me a headache
[08:25] <dooglus> cedega is a commercial winex
[08:25] <bulltitan> i see
[08:25] <bulltitan> but better you say or even?
[08:25] <q_a_z_steve> solid_liq: use %
[08:26] <killaz> InnerFIRE: and if configuring aint 10x times harder it shouldnt carry the name linux.... right!?
[08:26] <InnerFIRE> you have a point
[08:26] <tin_nqn> solid_liq with width parameter in each td like this:  <td width="XX">
[08:26] <q_a_z_steve> knoppix had sambastart on my desktop in a snap.
[08:26] <allnickstaken> doing searches about this gnome-ppp thing I finally was able to get I noticed it said it made the connection slow. Slow as compared to what I don't know? Anyway, why wouldn't the system/admin/networking thing be able to detect my modem when it works fine with wvdial?  And is there a way to fix this?
[08:26] <solid_liq> tin_nqn: cool, thanks!
[08:26] <bulltitan> i know this question might look dumb but if i have to spend some bucks i need to know where am i putting the money
[08:27] <killaz> InnerFIRE: what have you done so far... configuring the samba server>?
[08:27] <dooglus> bulltitan: cedega's supposed to be pretty good from what I've heard.  I've not tried it though.
[08:27] <q_a_z_steve> InnerFIRE: which version of windows are you dealing with?
[08:27] <bulltitan> thanks dooglus i'll give it a try then after visiting their site
[08:27] <InnerFIRE> ive installed samba and now im looking at the smb.conf file..
[08:28] <InnerFIRE> and its windows xp
[08:28] <InnerFIRE> i just setup  my neighbor with wifi
[08:28] <InnerFIRE> she wants to be able to use my printer
[08:28] <InnerFIRE> extra storage too
[08:28] <InnerFIRE> is samba going to act funny with the wireless router?
[08:29] <JW> Where should I ask "skpe hardware error ..." questions?
[08:30] <InnerFIRE> i thought swat would allow me to configure it much quicker..
[08:30] <allnickstaken> it's a shame they don't make mirc for linux
[08:30] <dooglus> JW: I don't even know where you should ask 'Where should I ask "skpe hardware error ..." questions?' questions
[08:30] <InnerFIRE> when i type swat in the terminal nothing happens
[08:30] <q_a_z_steve> shouldn't matter, especially if your mappings are host rather than IP, I believe.
[08:30] <q_a_z_steve> man swat
[08:31] <q_a_z_steve> !man sway
[08:31] <ubotu> I know nothing about man sway
[08:31] <q_a_z_steve> !man swat
[08:31] <ubotu> I know nothing about man swat
[08:31] <q_a_z_steve> !man
[08:31] <ubotu> The "man" command brings up the Linux manual pages for the command you're interested in. Try "man intro" at the command line, or see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands
[08:31] <killaz> InnerFIRE: swat is a webbased application...
[08:31] <q_a_z_steve> okay well that works.
[08:31] <q_a_z_steve> http://swat/ ???
[08:31] <InnerFIRE> hrm maybe holdon
[08:31] <JW> the "skpe hardware error " messages started when I insalled Ubuntu 6.06
[08:33] <InnerFIRE> lol.. i typed that and got a webpage with a movie called swat
[08:34] <longkerdandy> hi guys, my mplayer cannot load subtitles, any hint?
[08:34] <r3nd3r> is there any way i can get a binary for rp-pppoe dialer ?
[08:34] <realcoolguy> you set a default font?
[08:34] <q_a_z_steve> imdb.com, interesting.
[08:34] <dooglus> JW: skge is "SysKonnect Gigabit Ethernet"
[08:34] <r3nd3r> ubuntu didnt come with a compiler so i cant compile sources.. and i cant get online
[08:35] <q_a_z_steve> r3nd3r: what do you mean you can't get online?
[08:35] <InnerFIRE> ah i c
[08:35] <steri> anyone have good site where I can find instructions howto configure wpa2 on my wlan card
[08:35] <q_a_z_steve> you're here! Welcome to the internet, how can I help you!
[08:35] <q_a_z_steve> ?
[08:35] <KenSentMe> r3nd3r: i thought the package build-essential was on the install cd
[08:35] <q_a_z_steve> !wpa supplicant
[08:35] <ubotu> I know nothing about wpa supplicant
[08:35] <r3nd3r> q_a_z_steve, i have an adsl connection.. after pppoeconf when i do sudo pon default-provider nothing happens
[08:35] <InnerFIRE> smb://localhost
[08:36] <InnerFIRE> i get an index.. but nothings in it
[08:36] <r3nd3r> KenSentMe, so gcc is there on the cd ?

[08:36] <r3nd3r> i dunno man cant get it to work
[08:36] <r3nd3r> anyways are there binaries avaliable ?
[08:36] <longkerdandy> realcoolguy, i don't find anything using with this? you mean I need to set the font?
[08:36] <KenSentMe> r3nd3r: i think you need to sudo apt-get install build-essential
[08:36] <KenSentMe> !gcc
[08:36] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for a pre-built package first!)
[08:36] <r3nd3r> KenSentMe, but where could it look ?
[08:36] <q_a_z_steve> !gcc > r3nd3r
[08:36] <longkerdandy> realcoolguy, I do install the mplayer-font package
[08:37] <KenSentMe> r3nd3r: look for what?
[08:37] <r3nd3r> KenSentMe, where would apt-get look for the build-essential package ?
[08:37] <realcoolguy> longkerdandy you'll need to specify a font in the options... I think the font package provides you some to choose from
[08:37] <q_a_z_steve> console "sudo apt-get install build-essential"
[08:38] <q_a_z_steve> longkerdandy: can I suggest msstcorefonts ?
[08:38] <JW> dooglus  Thank you.
[08:38] <r3nd3r> q_a_z_steve, i dont have access to the internet
[08:38] <realcoolguy> ah, yes, the better looking fonts :P... because Redmond looks better in arial or whatever their fonts are...
[08:39] <dooglus> JW: I found it herE: http://joshua.raleigh.nc.us/docs/linux-2.4.10_html/338892.html
[08:39] <dooglus> JW: I don't know if you've got one of those network cards, or if you're using it, but that's what's complaining, apparently.
[08:40] <r3nd3r> q_a_z_steve, will it still work ?
[08:40] <q_a_z_steve> !repositories
[08:40] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto and !easysource
[08:40] <r3nd3r> q_a_z_steve, is build-essential on the 6.06 cd ?
[08:41] <q_a_z_steve> I've not done that yet.
[08:41] <jenda> how can I change the gnome menu title color (Black doesn't look too good on a transparent panel and the default wallpaper)
[08:42] <r3nd3r> can i download build-essential from windows and install it manually in ubuntu ?
[08:43] <pitti> r3nd3r: it should be on the CD
[08:43] <pitti> r3nd3r: and sure, you can download .deb files and install them in nautilus (it will call gdebi)
[08:43] <DragonRift> guess what
[08:43] <bimberi_> the Desktop CD?
[08:43] <DragonRift> my laptop had windows which said it had 128 mb ram
[08:43] <DragonRift> installed ubuntu
[08:44] <longkerdandy> realcoolguy, well, the error still popup, but I can see the movie with .sub files
[08:44] <DragonRift> it says it has 512 mb ram
[08:44] <DragonRift> stupid windows
[08:44] <q_a_z_steve> Is there a master list of packages available on each CD/DVD ?
[08:44] <longkerdandy> realcoolguy, but with .ssa files, I cannot
[08:44] <pitti> q_a_z_steve: yes
[08:44] <q_a_z_steve> DragonRift: did you share too much to the video?
[08:44] <q_a_z_steve> pitti: where???
[08:44] <WJames|lappy> i got a wireless card for my laptop,  but it cant figure how to configer it..
[08:45] <bytewalker> OK peeps, apparently i have to disable the builtin (default) drivers for my wireless card (which werent working) so that ndiswrapper will work.. how do i do this??
[08:45] <q_a_z_steve> !ndis
[08:45] <ubotu> Documentation for wireless networking can be found on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs
[08:45] <pitti> q_a_z_steve: http://releases.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu-6.06-alternate-i386.list and similar
[08:45] <bytewalker> PS there is nothing about this in the wifidocs
[08:45] <MyNameIsNotBob> q_a_z_steve, wireless configuration is harder in Dapper than breezy
[08:46] <realcoolguy> longkerdandy you picked a font (and gave mplayer a path to it?) .. man it's been forever since I had to set that thing up... anyone remember how to get subs working perfectly on mplayer?
[08:46] <q_a_z_steve> r3nd3r I can tell you that build-essential is on that list.
[08:46] <q_a_z_steve> MyNameIsNotBob: oh suck, why!?
[08:47] <WJames|lappy> erm..   can someone try to help me getting my wireless card working..and not link me to some page..   i dont know were to look
[08:47] <longkerdandy> realcoolguy, yep from perfermance->font tab
[08:47] <MyNameIsNotBob> q_a_z_steve, in breezy it was plug and play, it doesn't seem to connect to my network at all under dapper
[08:47] <realcoolguy> WJames|lappy what wireless card are you using?
[08:48] <q_a_z_steve> any errors?
[08:48] <allnickstaken> is there a gui program to see cpu load?
[08:49] <q_a_z_steve> !torsmo
[08:49] <ubotu> I know nothing about torsmo
[08:49] <q_a_z_steve> allnickstaken: torsmo
[08:49] <WJames|lappy> realcoolguy,  its some zonet ...or something.   lspci says :  Ethernet controller: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [Liberta s]  802.11b/g Wireless
[08:49] <allnickstaken> thanks
[08:50] <realcoolguy> wJames|lappy so it's a builtin wireless adapter? (assuming it's not external)
[08:50] <WJames|lappy> pcmcia
[08:50] <realcoolguy> wait, can't you just read the model of it then?
[08:50] <bytewalker> how can i tell which module a device (ie eth0) is trying to use?
[08:51] <WJames|lappy> hold on..let me turn the light son..
[08:51] <WJames|lappy> zew1502
[08:51] <realcoolguy> brand?
[08:51] <WJames|lappy> Zonet
[08:52] <realcoolguy> lol, what a funny name... sorry... ummm
[08:52] <allnickstaken> i'm not finding torsmo in synaptic package manager
[08:52] <q_a_z_steve> or for windows http://www.coolmon.org/
[08:53] <q_a_z_steve> allnickstaken: I don't think it's debian, but it's available somewhere, hang on.
[08:53] <WJames|lappy> yeh,  the store is not that far away,  and it was 30 dollers.   if it dont work..  i can just return it,  and get something thats dlink or linksys ..large brands
[08:54] <jenda> How do you alter themes in Ubuntu? (need to change a few font colors)
[08:54] <jmibanez> i seem to be having problems with NetworkManager and my wireless card-- on resume from hibernation, nm-applet no longer displays wifi networks (just the wired network)
[08:54] <q_a_z_steve> http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=108594
[08:54] <allnickstaken> thanks
[08:54] <jmibanez> any clue how to fix this?
[08:54] <comcaholic> hi all...
[08:54] <gdb> jenda: System -> Preferences -> Themes
[08:54] <jmibanez> or at least what the relevant bug report is?
[08:54] <jenda> gdb: nope...
[08:54] <gdb> jenda: If that's what you're looking for, anyway.
[08:54] <realcoolguy> wow there's like nothing on the internet WJames|lappy with anyone specifically discussing that card and linux...
[08:55] <q_a_z_steve> how do I make a standard /quit message?
[08:55] <q_a_z_steve> or maybe a random one?
[08:56] <WJames|lappy> q_a_z_steve,  xchat?
[08:56] <q_a_z_steve> chatzilla
[08:56] <bjron> anyone here know if I can change the behavior of nautilus so that middle click = double click
[08:57] <WJames|lappy> ah firefox,   um..   somewere in the options
[08:57] <bjron> or rather, so I can middle click once on  folder and open it (while right click still selects)
[08:57] <q_a_z_steve> about::config ? there's not much in chatzilla
[08:57] <jenda> gdb: but thanks..
[08:57] <WJames|lappy> q_a_z_steve,  go to tools>exteaions>chatzilla>options??
[08:58] <WJames|lappy> realcoolguy,  soo..   is there any wireless tools i could try?
[08:58] <allnickstaken> so uhh, how do you end task a program when it hangs on you in gnome/linux, whatever ;P
[08:58] <q_a_z_steve> same thing as the chatzilla menu up top here...
[08:58] <kbrosnan> q_a_z_steve, if you dont find anything irc://irc.mozilla.org/chatzilla - though it may be quite in there right now
[08:59] <realcoolguy> WJames|lappy you could try ndiswrapper (which is a big pain but might work) assuming you can get the windows driver file...
[08:59] <jmi[mon] > anyone?
[08:59] <WJames|lappy> hmm
[09:02] <Gibs0n31> whats the command to run a shell script?
[09:02] <Gibs0n31> sh *file* ?
[09:02] <oni-dracula> yes, Gibs0n31
[09:02] <realcoolguy> hey WJame|lappy the card you have uses the Atheros chipset
[09:03] <timboteam> Is there still no one here that knows how to configure wireless on ubuntu?
[09:03] <Gibs0n31> well i have a shell script that all it does is move to a my music folder but it doesnt run
[09:03] <Gibs0n31> do i have to s\
[09:04] <Tonren> timboteam, look up ndiswrapper on the wiki
[09:04] <Tonren> Gibs0n31: What error does it give you?
[09:04] <mngrif> ubuntu's wiki is downright amazing
[09:04] <realcoolguy> WJames|lappy - to get your card working get the "madwifi" drivers installed http://sourceforge.net/projects/madwifi/
[09:04] <Gibs0n31> none
[09:04] <Gibs0n31> it just doesnt change to the directory
[09:04] <Tonren> Gibs0n31: Have you done chmod u+x myscript.sh?
[09:04] <Gibs0n31> the script is only cd /home/music/
[09:05] <mngrif> how's this for weird, i went from gentoo to ubuntu
[09:05] <Gibs0n31> yes
[09:05] <runes> a little humour for unbuntu people LAMP (linux apache Mysql PHP) windows counterpart=  WIMP (windows Internet Information Services PHP)
[09:05] <Hekta> haha
[09:05] <WJames|lappy> ok, i will try that ,
[09:05] <realcoolguy> mngrif i don't blame you... waiting for things to emerge...  I get the same behavior on my box
[09:06] <runes> at 1500 dollars YOU too can have the latest WIMP server
[09:06] <Panzerboy_> morning
[09:06] <runes> at 0$ and with great support you have LAMP
[09:06] <Gibs0n31> just  a second ago it gave me no such file or directory
[09:07] <Gibs0n31> the only thin gin the file is "cd  /home/gibson/music"
[09:07] <Tonren> Gibs0n31: Scripts execute as child processes; so they don't run as "you"
[09:07] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  no, i run old hardware, so i appreciate the ability to fine tune the compiler options (I riced like whoa with gentoo), but more than anything, i just don't want to have to spend a signifigant portion of my time adminstering my computer. i want to be able to hash a command in and have whatever it is that needs to be done, *done*. no messing with nonexistent .desktop's or anything like that. i want X to work out of the box on my video card.... th
[09:07] <WJames|lappy> hah mngrif  i came from gentoo too..
[09:07] <Gibs0n31> do i need to save it to a specific folder?
[09:07] <kevinz> hello, about building kernel. The wiki says i will see "debian/config/i386/" for some config files, but i didn't with the linux-source package. what can i do
[09:08] <Tonren> Gibs0n31: The problem is that the script is changing dirs for ITSELF, but not you.  it runs as a different user
[09:08] <gdb> mngrif: You mean you want to use a computer for what it's intended for, not just for the sake of using a computer. ;)
[09:08] <mngrif> gdb,  well said.
[09:08] <Gibs0n31> how do i get it to run for me?
[09:09] <mejobloggs> can someone suggest a good partition setup for installing ubuntu ?
[09:09] <realcoolguy> gdb be nice... he'll probably reflexively be typing emerge instead of apt-get for the next few weeks... there should be some kind of rehab program for gentoo users
[09:09] <mngrif> I've been using Linux(BSD?) for over 10 years now, I'm well aware of how to administer a box... I just want to be able to *use* the thing!
[09:09] <mejobloggs> My auto partition thing seems to just hang, so i will have to try manually
[09:09] <Tonren> mejobloggs, I have 512MB swap, and then 2GB for / and a separate 10GB for /home
[09:09] <gdb> mejobloggs: / and swap :)  Depends, really, on what you're looking to do with the machine.
[09:09] <gdb> realcoolguy: hehe
[09:09] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  I came to gentoo from debian, ubuntu is just a rebadged debian with higher standards.
[09:10] <Tonren> Gibs0n31: Good question.  Google may be your best friend, because I don't know offhand.
[09:10] <Libra102> hello..
[09:10] <charle97> hi
[09:11] <dooglus> Gibs0n31: you're better off adding a line to your ~/.bashrc saying:  alias music='cd ~/Documents/Music'     or similar
[09:11] <Tonren> Gibs0n31: You can try sourcing it instead of executing it.
[09:11] <burntsigil> God, I feel like a moron.
[09:11] <mngrif> my home network currently consists of ubuntu, gentoo, and FBSD.. it's not that big of a deal to hash in apt-get instead of pkg_add or emerge. infact, my gentoo box doesn't get stuff added to it all that often
[09:11] <Hekta> Hey Libra
[09:11] <ttongfly_>      nice to meet you
[09:11] <hangfire> hello Libra102, I see your in C# also
[09:11] <Tonren> Gibs0n31: dooglus had a good idea just then.
[09:11] <gdb> Slackware from '94 to '96, Red Hat from '96 to '97, NetBSD from '97 to '99, Red Hat and Fedora until a couple of weeks ago, and now Ubuntu.
[09:11] <burntsigil> I've been sitting in here for several days thinking nobody was saying anything.  Turns out somehow Xchat cleared out it's settings for the "channel message" text event
[09:11] <mngrif> gdb,  RHL was the stuff back in '96 :)
[09:11] <Libra102> oh.. hangfire hello.. :-)
[09:11] <hangfire> hey Libra
[09:11] <Gibs0n31> alright thanks dooglus an Tonren
[09:12] <Hekta> burntsigil,  lol :)
[09:12] <jenda> Where can I find the color codes used in .xml configuration files? (gnome theme - eg. #ffffff is black)
[09:12] <gdb> mngrif: I went to NetBSD for no reason other than the crappy transition from libc to glibc that *every* Linux distribution had to go through.  But I ended up coming back. :)
[09:12] <Tonren> jenda: You mean, you want to know what those #xxxxxx numbers translate to as colors?
[09:12] <realcoolguy> mngrif well just a little symlinking ... so when you do type  emerge it'll just switch it to apt-get... I wonder if you could fool a gentoo user into thinking he's using gentoo...
[09:12] <burntsigil> The only things that would show up was when someone said something that included my nick.
[09:12] <jenda> Tonren: actually, I'm just looking for what white is.
[09:12] <mngrif> jenda,  google "color map" or "color picker", kde has one under the graphics menu. also the GIMP has it builtin, just doubleclick the fore/background color in the toolbox
[09:12] <Tonren> jenda: White should be #FFFFFF.
[09:13] <dooglus> jenda: http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_colors.asp
[09:13] <jenda> Thanks.
[09:13] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  emerge -va app-p2p/rtorrent != apt-get install rtorrent
[09:13] <charle97> #000000 is black
[09:13] <dooglus> jenda: except if #ffffff is black, I'm wrong...
[09:13] <jenda> Just found out I still didn't find the right config file anyway...
[09:13] <gdb> jenda: Each pair of letters is a hex represenation of 0-255, and the pairs are Red, Blue, and Green from left to right.
[09:13] <mngrif> #FFFFFF = black
[09:13] <gdb> #ffffff is white, yes
[09:13] <Tonren> jenda: They're hexedecimal colors.  This is probably more info than you're interested in, but: It goes #RRGGBB.  RR is red, GG is green and BB is blue.  All 0's is black, all F's is white.   How do I know what packages create the skeleton directories in /usr/local?
[09:14] <mngrif> Tonren,  is that on a script/alias? :)
[09:14] <jenda> Tonren: thanks :) that explains it all
[09:14] <Tonren> mngrif: haha, no, but carpal tunnel hasn't set in yet so I can still type pretty quick.
[09:14] <gdb> [hawk] : That's a very good question and I'm not sure there's a very good answer without digging through the postinst scripts of packages that may be associated with that.
[09:14] <hangfire> hawk, by files, you mean programs?
[09:15] <mngrif> [hawk] ,  probably some 'base' package owns the /usr/local/* tree
[09:15] <Tonren> jenda: WHOA!  was that a.. a japanese 'TSU' symbol?
[09:15] <mngrif> Tonren,  lucky you
[09:15] <Hekta> Hey Tonren that's good info
[09:15] <Tonren> mngrif: Hekta: I'll have to turn it into a little alias/script.  XD
[09:15] <jenda> Now, point two... any idea where the config file that sets the gnome panel fonts could be?
[09:15] <gdb> [hawk] : But you're likely to get some information with dpkg -S /usr/local
[09:15] <Hekta> I never new the colours went that way, I just new what Black & white were :)
[09:15] <jenda> Tonren: yuppers
[09:15] <mejobloggs> If im going to install windows and linux, what things will happen if I install windows after I install linux?
[09:15] <Tonren> jenda: You can just right click on a panel to changes its colors.
[09:15] <mngrif> jenda,  i like that, does it have any meaning?
[09:15] <jenda> Tonren: font colors...
[09:15] <[hawk] > gdb: dpkg -S /usr/local returns blank!
[09:16] <Tonren> jenda: Haha, awesome.  I don't think I have japanese language input enabled
[09:16] <gdb> mejobloggs: Nothing will happen other than GRUB will be removed and replaced with the Windows boot loader.  You can repair it using the Live CD.
[09:16] <Tonren> jenda: Ooooh, sorry.
[09:16] <jenda> mngrif: it prolly does, but for me, it's a smiley
[09:16] <mejobloggs> gdb, ah, just what i want to hear, thanks!
[09:16] <mngrif> jenda,  ur s0 l33t :P
[09:16] <jenda> Tonren: it's unicode. multibit incoding rulez ;)
[09:16] <mngrif> Tonren,  does that have any meaning?
[09:17] <mngrif> aside from being an utterance?
[09:17] <Tonren> mngrif: Wait, does what have any meaning other than utterance?  'TSU'?
[09:17] <Tonren> jenda: How do you input unicode into IRC?
[09:17] <mngrif> Tonren,  yes, 'TSU'.
[09:17] <gdb> [hawk] : Well, base-files creates /var/local but I'm not sure if it creates /usr/local as well.
[09:17] <Tonren> mngrif: It tends to be used in combination with other characters, to change their pronunciation.
[09:18] <mngrif> Tonren,  so it's just an utterance
[09:18] <jenda> Tonren: in Gaim, I'm not sure.. .but /charset UTF-8 is worth a try.
[09:18] <gdb> mejobloggs: Yes, just be sure that you leave your Linux partition alone in the Windows installer.
[09:18] <Tonren> mngrif: Yeah.  I wasn't sure what you meant by utterance.
[09:18] <Tonren> jenda: No such command, unfortunately.
[09:18] <gdb> mejobloggs: There's no real detriment to installing Windows last other than inconvenience.
[09:18] <Chousuke>  alone wouldn
[09:18] <Chousuke> wouldn't make a very good tattoo :p
[09:18] <[rick] > ?
[09:18] <mngrif> Tonren,  utterance in the vocabular sense... nothing more than a sound you make, like the letter "c" and it's associated symbol means nothing more than the sound it makes
[09:19] <mejobloggs> gdb, i dont understand what you said about leaving the linux part alone
[09:19] <[hawk] > gdb, mngrif: The most importan part of my question was: how do I know which files  (e.g. under /usr/ ) are owned by any package?
[09:19] <Tonren> mngrif: Ahh.  Good to know
[09:19] <Tonren> jenda: What client do you use?
[09:19] <jenda> Tonren: then use xchat :) But looking in the account settings is worth a try. If you have ICQ in gaim, I know you can change the incoding.
[09:19] <jenda> Tonren: you can do /ctcp <nick> version to find out.
[09:19] <gdb> mejobloggs: The very first part of the Windows installer is a text mode partitioner.  There will be allocated space displayed.  Do not delete that allocated space and give it to Windows.  That's your Linux partition(s).
[09:19] <[hawk] > dpkg -S /usr/local
[09:19] <[hawk] > eclipse-platform: /usr/local
[09:19] <mngrif> [hawk] ,  if it was gentoo, i'd be all over that question. since this is debain-enough, try messing around with dpkg. debian has a great dpkg primer that you should google for
[09:20] <realcoolguy> This is kinda a random general question, but if I had to do an 'interview' involving Linux, would anyone (not anytime soon) be willing to volunteer?  (just seeing if people are willing)
[09:20] <iiiears> mejobloggs: Heck, Grab KQEMU or VMWare and run windows in a virtual machine. - if it picks up an internet virus delete the disk image and mount another one. -lol
[09:20] <mejobloggs> gdb, ah, right, thanks
[09:20] <Chousuke> I hate the windows installer.
[09:20] <jenda> so... no idea where the panel fonts are hidden?
[09:20] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  define "interview"
[09:20] <mejobloggs> how big for the swap partition?
[09:20] <Chousuke> if you make changes to the partition scheme, the changes apply immediately
[09:20] <Tonren> jenda: Tricky.  I tried looking at your info but it didn't say anything.
[09:20] <gdb> [hawk] : Yes, that doesn't return anything for me, either.  I suspect the tree is created in a psotinst script for some package (like, say, base-files) but I don't know how to go about finding which other than downloading packages one by one and examining that script in each one.
[09:20] <realcoolguy> mngrif just a short Q+A session.. 5 minutes tops
[09:20] <iiiears> Ubuntu is great. :)
[09:20] <jenda> Tonren: it didn't? I use xchat
[09:21] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  phone or internet?
[09:21] <[rick] > chat or irssi
[09:21] <realcoolguy> mngrif doesn't matter
[09:21] <gdb> mngrif: I'd have to agree. :)
[09:21] <[rick] > xchat
[09:21] <Chousuke> I lost some data because of that behaviour once :(
[09:21] <mejobloggs> 1gb swap partition fine?
[09:21] <[rick] > yes
[09:21] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  and lastly, for what company or is this for a personal/academic research project?
[09:21] <[hawk] > mngrif: :-( I already read. I was hoping in some super smart undocumented way of doing this.
[09:21] <realcoolguy> academic research
[09:22] <iiiears> Chousuke: Dapper's install is much better than it was.
[09:22] <Chousuke> I was re-installing windows, and after I had done the partition changes and was about to proceed installing, I was told that there are some files I should save.
[09:22] <[hawk] > I'll ask on #ubuntu-devel
[09:22] <Chousuke> well, too late :P
[09:22] <mngrif> [hawk] ,  you should be able to query dpkg or the like as to who owns a file. a directory shouldn't be treated specialy by the utility that you use, regardless of what it is
[09:22] <Chousuke> at least Dapper's has an "are you really sure about these changes?" confirmation dialog :p
[09:22] <tono> slovensko
[09:22] <burntsigil> Lately I was trying to back up one of my DVDs with k9copy.  About 75% through, it stops, giving me some dvdauthor error.  Something like "Error reading from pipe.  File not found."  Anyone know what that might be?
[09:22] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  sure, add me to your /notify and /query anytime i'm on
[09:22] <tono> cawte
[09:23] <Tonren> jenda: How does xchat compare to konversation?
[09:23] <tin_nqn> people, I need run mplayer and I get and error: Player interrupted by signal 11 in module: decode_audio
[09:23] <Chousuke> tono: English only
[09:23] <gdb> mngrif: Right, [hawk]  is saying that dpkg has no record of what created /usr/local
[09:23] <Chousuke> hmm
[09:23] <Chousuke> !sk
[09:23] <ubotu> I know nothing about sk
[09:23] <tono> sk
[09:23] <realcoolguy> mngrif thanks-
[09:23] <Chousuke> :/
[09:23] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  aint no thang
[09:23] <mejobloggs> what is this 'primary partition' business? I want 3 paritions. 1) win  2)swap  3) linux.  Do i just put them all as primary?
[09:23] <mngrif> gdb,  must've missed that
[09:23] <Kaja> mejobloggs, yes =p
[09:23] <mngrif> mejobloggs,  yeah, you're fine doing that
[09:24] <Tonren> hey, has anyone had any trouble running 32bit on a 64bit arch machine?
[09:24] <jenda> Tonren: no idea, but xchat is VERY good. IRC only.
[09:24] <[hawk] > mngrif: asking for every file under / will take ages... and it will not tell me if the file is modified or not!
[09:24] <jenda> Tonren: or, if you're l33t, try irssi ;)
[09:24] <mngrif> mejobloggs,  there's an excellent partitioning HOWTO at tldp.org, if you'd like more information
[09:24] <mejobloggs> thanks
[09:24] <Tonren> jenda: That's the command line one, right?  I haven't been brave enough to try it
[09:24] <burntsigil> irssi isn't that hard to use.
[09:25] <kevinz> hi there. The wiki for building kernel really doesn't work for me https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild , where is linux-source-2.6.17? i just want to buiuld a 2.6.15, and how about config files? 2.6.15 package does not have those config files
[09:25] <mngrif> [hawk] ,  background and renice the process? let it go all night if that's what it takes. *shrug* just pipe it through grep and you'll have your answer shortly
[09:25] <tono> exit slovakia hh cafa
[09:25] <mngrif> burntsigil,  irssi is very easy to use, i'm using it now
[09:25] <burntsigil> so nobody has ever had that problem out of k9copy?
[09:25] <mngrif> although xchat is my IRC program of choice, hands down
[09:25] <[hawk] > mngrif: that is my last resort! tnx
[09:25] <iiiears> mngrif - a lot of great scripts too.
[09:26] <burntsigil> mngrif, Yeah.  I'm using xchat too.
[09:26] <Chousuke> I don't like X-chat :p
[09:26] <iiiears> xchat is easier.
[09:26] <mngrif> i do my own scripting in xchat, right now i'm in the middle of porting my xmms control script to function with amarok
[09:26] <burntsigil> When I ran IRC on my windows box, I used the win32 port of Xchat over mIRC.
[09:26] <mngrif> after that i'll release the script to the 'net
[09:26] <Tonren> Wow, seems like xchat takes the cake
[09:26] <mngrif> burntsigil,  well, mirc isn't open source
[09:26] <Tonren> Ugh... I can't believe I have to reinstall Ubuntu
[09:27] <burntsigil> Xchat uses tcl doesn't it?
[09:27] <iiiears> Windows and IRC? :X
[09:27] <mngrif> burntsigil,  it can
[09:27] <mrconstruction> how can i make printed fonts appear smaller?  they are way too big
[09:27] <mngrif> burntsigil,  there's also ruby bindings, which sounds great to me. right now my script is in perl
[09:27] <mngrif> burntsigil,  although i'd kill for php, since it's what i'm in the middle of learning now
[09:28] <mrconstruction> when i print out an email in evolution, the font is huge and i cant change it
[09:28] <burntsigil> I used to write scripts for mirc back in the day.  Though that doesn't count since mirc didn't use a real scripting language.
[09:28] <mngrif> mrconstruction,  apt-get install x11-gs-fonts
[09:28] <mngrif> mrconstruction,  might be called gs-fonts, i'm not sure to be honest
[09:28] <mrconstruction> that will fix it though?
[09:28] <mngrif> mrconstruction,  worth a shot
[09:29] <mngrif> mrconstruction,  all kinds of thigns need gs-fonts anyway
[09:29] <mrconstruction> good thanks
[09:29] <mngrif> at the least you can use them to theme with
[09:29] <burntsigil> It's baffling me that after scouring the net for days, I haven't found anyone else who's had this same problem with k9copy.
[09:29] <WJames|lappy> erm..
[09:29] <WJames|lappy> how do you copy files in the termal?
[09:29] <mngrif> burntsigil,  never heard of k9copy anyway
[09:29] <mngrif> WJames|lappy,  ... cp, perhaps?
[09:29] <WJames|lappy> hmm
[09:29] <WJames|lappy> cp i thought
[09:30] <WJames|lappy> will have to run a -h
[09:30] <burntsigil> mngrif, it's DVD backup software, kinda like DVD Shrink.
[09:30] <mngrif> WJames|lappy,  might i suggest googling for "linux introduction"? :)
[09:30] <WJames|lappy> i used to use linux
[09:30] <WJames|lappy> but after a year, i foret a bit
[09:30] <mngrif> burntsigil,  i don't mess with ripping dvd's, i draw the line at my audio collection
[09:30] <Hit3k> When I start the XGL session I get "Fatal Server Error: Could not create server lock file: /tmp/.X1-lock
[09:31] <mngrif> WJames|lappy,  never hurts to re-read some of that newbie stuffs, you might learn something new. god knows i still do after all these years
[09:31] <mngrif> Hit3k,  XGL isn't stable.
[09:31] <WJames|lappy> i know,
[09:31] <WJames|lappy> i will read the --help of cp
[09:31] <WJames|lappy> if that wont work
[09:31] <mngrif> Hit3k,  try rm /tmp/.X11-lock*
[09:31] <WJames|lappy> i will read
[09:31] <realcoolguy> burntsigil i found this really nice script (it's on my desktop) I don't remember what it's called, but it gave a really really easy way to convert videos (to whatever format you were interested in) dvd svcd vcd etc
[09:32] <mngrif> WJames|lappy,  man cp will do you good. man command, to find it's manual. man = your best friend :)
[09:32] <kazil> cwillu my friend i was lookin` for u :)
[09:32] <WJames|lappy> lol
[09:32] <Chousuke> I'm constantly tempted to try this open WLAN that reaches my room from somewhere.
[09:32] <iiiears> realcoolguy: Willing to pastebin it?
[09:32] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  lemme know when you find it out, i need a good DivX > VCD converter
[09:33] <realcoolguy> grrr *goes to desktop land*
[09:33] <iiiears> Uhoh. - lol
[09:33] <mngrif> Chousuke,  someone just got arrested for using someone else's open WLAN where I live, be careful!
[09:33] <Chousuke> It's wep protected though ;P
[09:33] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  ls ~/Desktop ?
[09:34] <Chousuke> mngrif: I wonder how they could find out who I am :D
[09:34] <Hit3k> mngrif now i get _XSERVTransSocketUNIXCreateListener: .....SocketCreateListener() failed it says its already running
[09:34] <realcoolguy> too big of a PITA to get that thing started... mngrif if I interview you i'll be sure to give you that script
[09:34] <mngrif> Chousuke,  in this case it was obvious, they were a registered sex offender so they knocked at his door first. got lucky. he wasn't doing anything illegal over the network though, the owner of the WLAN called it in to the police instead of bothering to block the MAC
[09:35] <runes> Tonren yes I had problems with 64 bit running 32 bit apps
[09:35] <burntsigil> realcoolguy, what is it?
[09:35] <Hekta> mngrif, where do you live ?
[09:35] <mngrif> Hekta,  Kentucky, woohoo.
[09:35] <Hekta> phew, not near me :)
[09:35] <Hekta> I mean that in the nicest way, don't wanna get arrested for wardriving hehehe
[09:35] <mngrif> Hekta,  not close to anyone, so it seems. it's RARE i meet a fellow kentuckian online
[09:36] <realcoolguy> ok i lied mngrif burntsigil i think this is the thread i found it on http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=193754
[09:36] <mngrif> i'm in a technological black hole :\
[09:36] <mngrif> realcoolguy,  yarr.

[09:39] <fluxinator> just updated my bios and my screen resolution is trash 1024*768. I have the intel i915 card. could someone tell me how to repair this
[09:39] <kevinz> hello. are there any people who build kernel in ubuntu? do you see debian/config/i386/ directory in kernel source?
[09:39] <coopster> hrmm, anyone know if there's a way to get the livecd to use the video out on a 5200 nvidia?  I can't get support for the nvidia driver to work
[09:39] <e>  :(
[09:40] <iiiears> coopster - hm - maybe something on the mythtv site???
[09:40] <realcoolguy> coopster I remember seeing support for video out on a live cd ... knoppix maybe...
[09:40] <fluxinator> any help would be really appreciated
[09:40] <Lion> fe
[09:40] <Lion> sef
[09:40] <coopster> iiiears: well, I may have to hook a monitor up, i'm sure once i actually get it installed I can compile it in, but it wont work off the livecd
[09:41] <realcoolguy> coopster - it was for nvidia out... so it was exactly what you were looking for (i can't remember the distro, but i'm assuming knoppix)
[09:41] <coopster> realcoolguy: well, i dont really want to use knoppix, i just only have a tv hooked up to a computer and wanted to install on it
[09:41] <Ademan> is gnome-commander any better than nautilus?
[09:41] <Ademan> any reason to even try it out? is it just preference? or is one clearly better?
[09:41] <coopster> it works up until X starts, the video out is fine for console but just a black sreen with X
[09:41] <radone> is it possible (easily) in ubuntu/dapper to configure hibernate/suspend support?
[09:41] <coopster> Ademan: can only really tell by trying, i'm sure
[09:42] <chavo> Ademan, it's a two panel file manager
[09:42] <realcoolguy> coopster I had a painful experience with that once... used a tv converter box to change the vga to tv out..
[09:42] <iiiears> Would Xinerama do it??
[09:42] <chavo> if you like that style it's good
[09:42] <fluxinator> fuc***g fantastic
[09:42] <Tonren> runes: You have 32 bit Ubuntu installed on a 64 bit machine?  it hasn't been working right..?
[09:43] <coopster> iiiears: dunno, havent tried that route
[09:43] <iiiears> Everything is going to be huge and out of scale at TV resolutions.
[09:43] <fluxinator> how do I reconfigure x?
[09:43] <iiiears> at least initially.
[09:44] <coopster> iiiears: yeah, i have gentoo running on it now, wanted to switch to ubuntu on it.
[09:44] <coopster> suppose i'll just drag a monitor over and do it
[09:44] <runes> tonren no I had 64 bit on 64 bit 32 bit apps weren't working right
[09:44] <Ademan> whats D-Bus ?
[09:44] <Tonren> runes: oh.. i'm gonna do 32 on a 64
[09:44] <runes> tonren so after many a tweak I stil couldn't get plugins for firefox to work properly soudn was off etc
[09:45] <Tonren> same here
[09:45] <Tonren> it's not worth whatever advantages 64bit has right now
[09:45] <Tonren> nothing is supported in it
[09:45] <coopster> runes, tonren: fwiw, i use the 32 bit distro on my 64 bit chip, it was just more trouble than help
[09:45] <runes> tonren then I went to 32 bit os on 64 bit amd all working fine!
[09:45] <Tonren> coopster: That's what I"m doing
[09:45] <jenda> strange.. xchat just disappeared...
[09:45] <jenda> But I managed to change the font color :)
[09:46] <runes> coopster, and Tonren I prefer to wait until the developpers release the 64 bit plugins for the apps prior to install
[09:46] <Subvertir> How can I make startx work?
[09:46] <Subvertir> is X just not suid root?
[09:47] <Tonren> coopster: runes: I'm the exact same way.  I'm about to install 32bit and remove my 64bit.. it's not worth it
[09:47] <runes> Tonren, same experience here
[09:47] <WJames|lappy> how do you get out of man pages...
[09:47] <Tonren> WJames|lappy: q
[09:47] <WJames|lappy> thanks
[09:47] <coopster> runes: Tonren, I'm going to install a full 32bit chroot "one day some time in the future," that should be the best of both worlds
[09:48] <runes> Tonren, if it was a console server I'd say stick with 64 bit however if it's for gui (gnome and or KDE) then 32 bit
[09:48] <radone> please has anyone some experiences with hibernate/suspend in ubuntu?

[09:57] <ompaul> durt, its job I can't remember but it is a file that is generated on each login, in some cases it does not get removed if you reboot the box mid  X session

[09:59] <Za1> has anyone able to use project with connecting Ubuntu?
[09:59] <Za1> projector
[09:59] <iiiears> sn00p: sn00pThere are a couple of choices for Flash the open source and the proprietory non-free version. both work pretty well though you are likely to also want mozcontrol too.
[10:00] <babo> Anyone ... pls ?
[10:00] <ompaul> Za1, I would strongly suggest you get dapper, in a couple of months it will not be supported, the connection to the projector is to use the "screen output" on the laptop, you then use something like Function Key+F5 or 8 or 12 depending on model it has nothing to do with the operating system
[10:00] <babo> This has been going on for WAY too long ...
