[06:24] <alternative3> I can't figure out how to refresh a page in Lynx. anyone?
[06:24] <macd> defrysk, yes, and tried using aptitude to resolve the problem
[06:24] <waylandbill> kmaynard, lol
[06:24] <variant> alternative3: got me stumped
[06:24] <AJ--> alternative3 just press F5

[06:25] <wolfbane_691> i am very new to this
[06:25] <defrysk> macd, I know what I would try but am not sure if its the proper thing to do
[06:25] <wolfbane_691> sry
[06:25] <variant> wolfbane_691: the superuser (think administrator on windows but more like god less like some scumbag)
[06:25] <icheyne> graveman might be worth a look

[06:25] <macd> defrysk what would you try?
[06:25] <variant> icheyne: why you show me this?
[06:26] <wolfbane_691> got cha
[06:26] <macd> doesnt really matter I can always revert to dapper.
[06:26] <defrysk> sudo apt-get remove xinit
[06:26] <icheyne> because you could try graveman if you don't like gnomebaker
[06:26] <alternative3> CTRL+R :) thanks jk

[06:26] <wolfbane_691> ok thanx a bunch guys
[06:26] <variant> defrysk: aahha,, dont do that
[06:26] <macd> well it can be reinstalled
[06:26] <defrysk> variant, thats why I sayd not sure
[06:27] <variant> defrysk: remove the file /usr/share/man/man5/Xsession.5.gz (back it up) then rerun the command
[06:27] <etienne_> variant : just installed dia , it crapped out on me
[06:27] <macd> I did that already.
[06:27] <AJ--> sorry for that alternative3.. coz i use F5 wen i refresh a page.. but it works for me
[06:27] <defrysk> variant, deal :)
[06:27] <macd> variant, already removed it ;P same error.
[06:27] <variant> etienne_: unlucky.. sorry to hear that. you should try an alternative
[06:27] <etienne_> had to escape to a term to kill it
[06:27] <l0st1> geez what does "cannot find terminal management library readline" mean? and it has "ncurses" "term cap" "curses" in brackets
[06:27] <variant> macd: damn.. xinit is part of xorg though so removing it is not an option really
[06:28] <macd> maybee removing it then adding the package back
[06:28] <variant> Caplain: maybe
[06:28] <catalytic> ooo ahh i like the look of e17
[06:28] <macd> of course the dependencies are going to be unmet

[06:46] <dabaR> AbortD: there is an app in the menu for that. System>admin>System Monitor
[06:46] <variant> Yggdrasil: its called time drift.. you have set your clock which has put the time setting in the past. you will have to either wait till the old time passes again or set your clock more slowy with ntp
[06:46] <keithhhh> defrysk: I tried in VLC but I cant hear anything
[06:47] <defrysk> vlc plays anything
[06:47] <AbortD> im looking for the hotkey...
[06:47] <keithhhh> defrysk: ya vlc rocks
[06:47] <defrysk> keithhhh, not sure about that bit
[06:47] <variant> johso: take out the disk and install it from annother machine
[06:47] <ReverseBlade> AbortD, if you install automatix ,it provides you with the ctrl alt del option

[06:48] <AbortD> i want the hotkey for system monitor
[06:48] <Alcides> #spanish
[06:48] <variant> Yggdrasil: use the date commmand or in system preferences which is probably a lot simpler
[06:48] <johso> variant: It's a really bad idea, since it will install a lot of hardware that I will slow my system, but the real problem is that I have a laptop, thus I can't put the harddisk in another machine...
[06:48] <macd> ax, then copy your binary to the the current vi binary
[06:48] <ReverseBlade> AbortD, install automatix , plain and simple :)
[06:48] <AbortD> its ctrl alt something

[06:48] <dabaR> ax: is it OK...they are metapackages, so nothing should be broken afterwards. Just make sure they do not remove all their dependencies along with them.
[06:48] <AbortD> IT WAS INSTALLED WITH UBUNTU THE HOTKEY CAME ON THIS CRAP
[06:48] <bertugolu> about the ati drivers stuff
[06:48] <shuan> anyone know why when i try to install sun java 5 from add applications it says its not available in any software channel ?
[06:48] <ianmacgregor> ReverseBlade: Please do not recommend automatix.. it isn't supported configuration
[06:49] <ReverseBlade> ianmacgregor, I disagree
[06:49] <ReverseBlade> ianmacgregor, it works well
[06:49] <ianmacgregor> ReverseBlade: Talk to the ops, then
[06:49] <britt> :agreed:
[06:49] <variant> johso: you can do a network isntall from an existing installation or from annother system over ssh
[06:49] <Alcides> Alguien habla espaol
[06:49] <ReverseBlade> ianmacgregor, why ?
[06:49] <bertugolu> can someone tell me how can i install ati drivers
[06:49] <Yggdrasil> variant thanks...
[06:49] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  hey you in?
[06:49] <l0st1> lol....ahh geez...now an error 'cannot find imlib2.....
[06:49] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  hey you in?
[06:49] <macd> shuan, yes add the universe repo to your sources.list (covered on the forums)
[06:49] <bertugolu> yeah
[06:49] <variant> ianmacgregor: he has been arguing about it all day
[06:49] <bertugolu> i am with ubuntu...the hz is very bad
[06:49] <variant> !ati
[06:49] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:49] <ianmacgregor> variant: Then someone needs to kick him
[06:49] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  did vesa work ya
[06:49] <variant> bertugolu: see that?
[06:49] <bertugolu> vesa worked
[06:49] <bertugolu> XD
[06:49] <Xac> im looking for a howto for installing ist on a winxp laptop
[06:50] <ReverseBlade> ianmacgregor, why ?
[06:50] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  sudo apt-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:50] <bertugolu> but i need drivers bcos i cant stay like this
[06:50] <dabaR> AbortD: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=41174
[06:50] <ReverseBlade> iamtheobject, why mentioning about automatix is a bad thing
[06:50] <david> hi
[06:50] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  and you can reconfigure refresh rate while you get the proper drivers
[06:50] <Gumby600m> macd:  Firefox has no sound with "oss" instead of "aoss"... and I cant find anything like an "oss" package in synaptic.  What am I missing?
[06:50] <dabaR> l0st1: well, the dependencies have to be there in order to compile.
[06:50] <johso> variant: could you be so kind and elaborate on that, or maybe point me to a guide?
[06:51] <dabaR> Use aptitude search then the lib that is missing, and install its -dev package, and then try again.
[06:51] <macd> Gumby600m, goto system -> preferences -> sound
[06:51] <macd> do you see oss in the dropdown?
[06:51] <ReverseBlade> ianmacgregor, , why mentioning about automatix is a bad thing
[06:51] <dabaR> l0st1: libimlib2-dev is the one you need now.
[06:51] <macd> under the default sound card?
[06:52] <Gumby600m> macd: all I see is: "Intel 82801db-ich4"
[06:52] <AbortD> i use kde
[06:52] <AbortD> dabar
[06:52] <joeCoT> Xac: there aren't any how-tos for generl laptops. there are how-tos and reviews for specific one shttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam
[06:52] <dabaR> !automatix > ReverseBlade
[06:52] <macd> Gumby600m, then in that case check the box that has ESD at the top and tell firefox to use ESD
[06:52] <ReverseBlade> AbortD, what's your problem
[06:52] <AbortD> nothing
[06:52] <AbortD> im done
[06:52] <ReverseBlade> dabaR, so ?
[06:52] <l0st1> ah forgot the "lib" part....
[06:52] <AbortD> next person that gives me a stupid answer im gonna go insane
[06:53] <l0st1> thx it's working now...
[06:53] <macd> automatix is like mixing and matching your repo lists, not the best idea in the world.
[06:53] <dabaR> l0st1: $20
[06:53] <l0st1> do you take cheque?
[06:53] <l0st1> lol
[06:53] <sureshot> AbortD man if you are like me dont pack for a heavy trip because it is not a long one LOLOL just teasing
[06:53] <ks1> send in a zip file.
[06:53] <ReverseBlade> macd, it works perfect
[06:53] <macd> only if it says cheque not check on it cause they dont spell it as such here ;P
[06:54] <macd> ReverseBlade, if is was perfect then it would be in universe.
[06:54] <AbortD> [12:53]  <kkathman> AbortD:   ctrl+esc

[06:54] <AbortD> [12:53]  <AbortD> kkathman: can i ask you a question
[06:54] <ReverseBlade> macd, the reason it is not in universe , because it uses non free software
[06:54] <AbortD> [12:53]  <kkathman> heh
[06:54] <ks1> Jhonny1009: yes
[06:54] <AbortD> [12:53]  <AbortD> ?
[06:54] <variant> johso: sorry, i was looking for a list of install methods but cant find it
[06:54] <AbortD> [12:53]  <-- DeadSouL has left this server (Read error: 104 (Connection reset by peer)).

[06:54] <Jhonny1009> ks1 thanks

[06:54] <AbortD> [12:53]  <kkathman> well you can ask :)

[06:55] <AbortD> [12:54]  <Jucato> keyboard shortcut
[06:55] <Jhonny1009> ks1, so I can mark it for instalation and it will work after?
[06:55] <johso> variant: couldn't find anything myself, but thanks for trying.
[06:55] <ks1> Jhonny1009: yes
[06:55] <macd> automatix doesnt contain any non-free software it just installs it, thus its not a problem if they wanted it in there it would be in there.
[06:55] <Jhonny1009> thx
[06:55] <Xac_> how can i change the partition tabel without any loss of data
[06:55] <joeCoT> bbiab
[06:55] <ReverseBlade> macd, what ?
[06:56] <macd> what didnt you understand?
[06:56] <dabaR> Xac_: don't mess with the partitions that have data on them
[06:56] <variant> Xac_: carefully :)
[06:56] <ReverseBlade> macd, you ask anyone even canonical people that the reason is it installs non free software
[06:56] <variant> Xac_: parted
[06:56] <macd> legaly they can put it in there.
[06:56] <macd> apt installs non free software too
[06:56] <dabaR> Xac_: back up all data to another medium, and then return the data after changing the partition table
[06:56] <ReverseBlade> macd, legally they can't
[06:56] <macd> as does dpkg
[06:56] <variant> ReverseBlade: ffs, will you PLEASE take your arguments else where, youare like a stuck record
[06:56] <macd> but you dont see anyone not including those.
[06:57] <ianmacgregor> Can we take the automatix talk to #automatix please? This is an Ubuntu support channel.
[06:57] <macd> automatix is a tool for isntalling non-free software is doesnt contain non-free software.
[06:57] <don-o> i swtiched apt/sources.list from dapper to edgy. apt-get update. apt-get dist-upgrade. dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.1.1ubuntu5_i386.deb (--unpack):
[06:57] <ReverseBlade> variant, yeah sorry about that
[06:57] <macd> better yet, I'll just stop talking about it ;)
[06:57] <don-o>  trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man5/Xsession.5.gz', which is also in package xinit
[06:57] <pawman> hi there
[06:57] <Xac_> is there no free tool like partition magic
[06:57] <don-o> is there a workaround for this failed upgrade to edgy?
[06:57] <macd> don-o, heh I just had that problem
[06:57] <tonyyarusso> Xac_: gparted
[06:57] <gnomefreak> macd: it does contain non-free software
[06:57] <macd> use dpkg -i --force-all
[06:57] <AJ--> i dont think partation magic will help
[06:57] <waylandbill> Xac_, gparted live-cd
[06:58] <don-o> macd: ha. i tried removing the man page but it didnt help.
[06:58] <don-o> macd: cool i'll try that.
[06:58] <macd> then put the the package name after the force option.
[06:58] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  have you installed the nvidia driver?
[06:58] <Xac_> the live cd doesn't boot with apic support :(
[06:58] <macd> gnomefreak, automatix doesnt, it facilitates the isntall of non-free software.
[06:58] <robertwoes> I am downloading the ubuntu disk, but azureus says that my ratio is bad and it is red.... is this going to affect the download?
[06:59] <variant> robertwoes: just upload as much as you download and your sorted
[06:59] <gnomefreak> macd: it uses the PLF repo to install non-free apps like mp3 codecs
[06:59] <variant> robertwoes: it takes a while to get a good ratio but dont worry about it in the mean time
[06:59] <macd> so how exactly would automatix "contain" non-free
[07:00] <macd> its a tool to facilitate installation of non-free software.
[07:00] <gnomefreak> and btw if your gonna suggest bad options like --fore make sure its the right one its --force-overwrite
[07:00] <nbjayme> hello people.  i have a problem regarding creation of pal-VCD  ... i have followed this guide http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Create_a_VCD_or_SVCD.  the CD will play on the VCD player but when i try on my computer totem says "There is no plugin to handle the location of this movie".  what does that mean?
[07:00] <bertugolu> helo
[07:00] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  hey, you getting there?
[07:00] <dmglouis> can someone help me? my comp doesn't connect to the internet
[07:00] <robertwoes> will it automatically upload or do i need to tell it to?
[07:00] <macd> gnomefreak, I had the same issue this morning and the fix suggested works fine.
[07:00] <bertugolu> emm i didnt install nvidia drivers, bcos i have ait
[07:00] <bertugolu> i am using the ubuntu webite
[07:00] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, automatix
[07:00] <bertugolu> hope it works
[07:00] <pawman> Does anyone know a good program to run over a LAN to chat and use whiteboard that does not go over the internet or though this could be an external option
[07:00] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, just kidding:) can you ping your router ?
[07:00] <dmglouis> reverseblade:whats automatix
[07:00] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  I dont know the ati well. give me a link to the site you on and I see ca i help ya
[07:01] <dmglouis> reverseblade: no
[07:01] <roshan_s> don-o: Please file a bug against the xorg package containing the error message.
[07:01] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, never mind on that. do you have a router in deed ?
[07:01] <bertugolu> no no i am going fine now
[07:01] <dmglouis> reverseblade: yea its connected via ehternet to router
[07:01] <bertugolu> lets hope it work, 100000x very much
[07:01] <don-o> roshan_s: oh man, make macd do it! kidding. i'll file the bug as soon as i find the url for bug filing.
[07:01] <ATAQ> bertugolu:  are you running the fglrx or vesa
[07:01] <ATAQ> ?
[07:01] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, type sudo ifconfig and see your ip if you get it
[07:01] <gnomefreak> 1st --forece-anything should not be used nor should not be suggested for people to use. --force-all can force something else that fifnt error yet and cause major breakage, --force-overwrite only overwrites the one .deb that you tell it to.
[07:02] <macd> I already filed the bug.
[07:02] <roshan_s> don-o: I'm checking if a duplicate bug has already been filed.
[07:02] <macd> gnomefreak, I didnt know that, kthx for clarification
[07:02] <variant> gnomefreak: it does not use --force
[07:02] <dmglouis> reverseblade: yea theres an inet address
[07:02] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, and what is it ?
[07:02] <gnomefreak> variant: what doesnt use force?
[07:02] <variant> gnomefreak: automatix
[07:02] <dmglouis> reverseblade: its <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:02] <gnomefreak> variant: we are talking about the --force-all command
[07:02] <variant> gnomefreak: ok
[07:02] <gnomefreak> variant: not automatix
[07:03] <variant> gnomefreak: i see :), forgive me :)
[07:03] <macd> one would assume when you specify a deb then --force-all switch would just use all the force options to install that package
[07:03] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, did you set yourself or automatic ?
[07:03] <gnomefreak> macd: yes
[07:03] <macd> then how was what I told him wrong?
[07:03] <dmglouis> reverseblade: myself, i put in the dns nameservers
[07:03] <macd> I said --force-all packagenamehere
[07:03] <dmglouis> reverseblade: buts its dchp
[07:03] <dabaR> macd: not wrong, just unsafe.
[07:03] <gnomefreak> /var/cache/apt/archives/x11-common_1%3a7.1.1ubuntu5_i386.deb  << example
[07:03] <macd> yeah well running linux isnt safe ;)
[07:03] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, did you set the 192. ip manually ?
[07:04] <dmglouis> reverseblade: nope
[07:04] <macd> especialy if your trying to upgrade to a beta release
[07:04] <dabaR> macd: if you use the --force-overwrite only that package gets forced. otherwise you could force otehr changes.
[07:04] <ATAQ> hey linneighborhood dont really wotk, If samba is easier than NFS,  what samba client should I use, I am on XFCE
[07:04] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, what is your routers ip  ?
[07:04] <dmglouis> reverseblade: each time i restart the computer it gets assigned that IP
[07:04] <dmglouis> reverseblade: routers is <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:04] <macd> dabaR, thanks for the 2nd clarification ;)
[07:04] <don-o> im getting a lot of "perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:" warnings during the dist-upgrade
[07:04] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, and you ping it what you get ?
[07:04] <macd> don-o that happens.
[07:04] <dmglouis> reverseblade: however, if i restart networking, i lose the IP
[07:05] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, its okay
[07:05] <designdream> i feel that i broke things by sudo passwd
[07:05] <macd> dabaR, me too, ever since I threw qwerty out
[07:05] <Jhonny1009> I downloaded the xgl package via synaptic, how do I start it?
[07:05] <don-o> dabaR: if you like typing, you'll like typing on a dvorak keyboard even more!
[07:05] <dmglouis> reverseblade: i get destination host unreachable
[07:05] <ATAQ> type xgl! lol
[07:05] <macd> ohh snap don-o use dvorak too ?
[07:05] <variant> designdream: yeah, there should be no need to set a root password
[07:05] <designdream> is there a way to remove my root password? certain System menus in gnome are failing.. i also dont have sound
[07:05] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, is there any other machine in your network that you can ping ?
[07:05] <don-o> macd: dvorak is the r0x0rz.
[07:05] <designdream> variant: well how do i undo
[07:05] <dmglouis> reverseblade: yea, 2 others
[07:05] <designdream> variant: i was not aware of sudo -i
[07:05] <macd> designdream, root password and those issues have nothing in common
[07:05] <dmglouis> reverseblade: i mean no
[07:05] <dabaR> !root
[07:05] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:05] <Jhonny1009> ATAQ type xgl where?
[07:05] <variant> designdream: dunno, there is a command to undo it but i dont recall exactly what it is
[07:06] <dmglouis> reverseblade: the 2 others can ping the router
[07:06] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, but you can't ping them  right ?
[07:06] <dmglouis> reverseblade: no
[07:06] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, strange
[07:06] <dmglouis> reverseblade: well the 2 others are windows
[07:06] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, shouldn't matter
[07:06] <designdream> macd: alright... i assumed it did because i now have a password prompted upon sudo'n any command
[07:06] <nbjayme> would there be a problem for linux on pal-vcd format?  what's a good burning option to make it play under linux and the VCD player?
[07:06] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, if your computer gets and ip from the router than there should be no problem
[07:06] <dabaR> dmglouis: compile all your info into 1-3 sentences, so that when someone new tries to help you they do not have to ask all the questions you already know the answers to.
[07:07] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, note that windows default blocks ping request
[07:07] <macd> designdream, again you didnt break anything, the problems your experiencing have nothing todo with the root password.
[07:07] <gnomefreak> variant: designdream check !sudo there is a section on changing su back to sudo
[07:07] <Jhonny1009> please, how do I start xgl on ubuntu?
[07:07] <dmglouis> reverseblade: it only gets the IP after restart, if i try changing anything and then restarting it loses the IP and doesnt get one
[07:07] <macd> if you set your root password and want to be root type "su"
[07:07] <cbx33> Jhonny1009, are you on edgy or dapper?
[07:07] <macd> dmglouis, does ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0 help?
[07:07] <gnomefreak> designdream: are they the ones that need "root"
[07:07] <don-o> NOPASSWD: is my favorite part of sudo
[07:07] <dmglouis> reverseblade: i mean restarting the comp works, restarting the netwrok doesn't
[07:08] <dmglouis> reverseblade: let me try
[07:08] <Jhonny1009> cbx33, I don't know
[07:08] <stephans> how do you delete lots of files??????????
[07:08] <designdream> macd: 'system' 'time and date' tells me 'you are not allowed to access the system configuration'
[07:08] <crimsun> Jhonny1009: lsb_release -r
[07:08] <gnomefreak> stephans: one at a time carefully
[07:08] <dabaR> stephans: that depends on which files you want to delete
[07:08] <variant> designdream: use suod
[07:08] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, that's normal behaviour
[07:08] <brutopia> stephans: install windows
[07:08] <deadkenny> Hi, anyone know how to set quotas on virtual users in VSFTPD?
[07:08] <macd> designdream, a window prompting you for sudo does not pop up?
[07:08] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, how many interfaces do you have ?
[07:08] <gnomefreak> designdream: yes that would be because of enabling su
[07:08] <stephans> i get bash: /bin/rm: Argument list too long
[07:08] <designdream> macd: no
[07:08] <macd> then you need to revert back to sudo.
[07:08] <dmglouis> reverseblade: just this eth0
[07:09] <Jhonny1009> crimsun, I have 6.06
[07:09] <gnomefreak> designdream: read teh link ubotu gave you above for !root it tells you how to set it back
[07:09] <designdream> gnomefreak: thanks...
[07:09] <stephans> there are over 10 000 files in a folder... i need to delete most of them
[07:09] <crimsun> Jhonny1009: so, dapper.
[07:09] <dmglouis> reverseblade: and the networks uneachable if i try pinging now
[07:09] <dmglouis> reverseblade: *unreachable
[07:09] <don-o> stephans: how are you specifying which to delete?
[07:09] <designdream> !sudo
[07:09] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[07:09] <ReverseBlade> windows blocks the ping
[07:09] <stephans> I would have thought that the cli would be the easises...
[07:09] <Jhonny1009> how do I run xgl?
[07:10] <dmglouis> reverseblade: how do i let in the ping then?
[07:10] <gnomefreak> macd: i dont know what makes the difference but some people have issues running anything that normally needs sudo when they enable root (some people not all)
[07:10] <stephans> rm rec*
[07:10] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, but if windows could ping the router ,  your *nix machine should do as well
[07:10] <stephans> don-o: rm rec*
[07:10] <don-o> stephans: find . -name rec\* -exec rm {} \;
[07:10] <don-o> stephans: thats one way to do it. note it will search into subdirectories.
[07:10] <Jhonny1009> another question: how can I set the resolution of the login screen?
[07:10] <stephans> don-o: could you pls explain what that means???
[07:10] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, there is a setting in the control panel of windows , something like a firewall,  you can adjust it or turn the firewall temporarily
[07:10] <nbjayme> is there a way to have a  vcd in ogg format?
[07:10] <ianmacgregor> gnomefreak: It's best, then, to just not enable root. I have been on Ubuntu since Hoary and have never needed to enable the root account :)
[07:11] <don-o> stephans: man find will explain it.
[07:11] <dmglouis> reverseblade: okay let me try
[07:11] <gnomefreak> ianmacgregor: correct
[07:12] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, what do you get when route -e -n ?
[07:12] <dado> felipe: get out
[07:12] <stephans> don-o: could you do it with a for loop?
[07:12] <felipe> I saw it first!
[07:13] <dado> did not
[07:13] <don-o> stephans: for filename in *; do echo $filename; done
[07:13] <don-o> stephans: replace * with rec* and echo with rm
[07:13] <dado> felipe is touching me
[07:13] <leahciMic> omg omg i just shat my pants ... afk
[07:13] <dmglouis> lol
[07:14] <don-o> william SHATner
[07:14] <stephans> don-o: ok that is the equivalent of 'for /f %i in ('dir /b rec*.*') do del %i'
[07:14] <stephans> in windows?
[07:14] <raintheory> hello all
[07:15] <don-o> stephans: good god i dont know! DOS batch files?! :)
[07:15] <dmglouis> whenever I restart networking, i get a message saying No DHCPOFFERS received, whats the problem?
[07:15] <MarcN> dmglouis: no dhcp server answered your request
[07:15] <don-o> stephans: i didnt even know DOS was capable of such a construct.
[07:15] <Jhonny1009> can anyone tell me how I can change the resolution of the login screen?
[07:15] <stephans> don-o: NT shell scripting... lots of similarities...
[07:16] <leahciMic> except nt shell scripting sucks...
[07:16] <don-o> stephans: i see.
[07:16] <dmglouis> MarcN: but my router works, thats how im connected on this computer
[07:16] <MarcN> stephans: maybe something like       find . -iname 'rec*' -printf "rm %p\n"  then pipe to   sh    (don't just cut-n-paste it)
[07:17] <stephans> MarcN: that look bizarre...
[07:17] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, route -e -n
[07:17] <MarcN> dmglouis: run out of dhcp addresses?
[07:17] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, netstat -r
[07:17] <raintheory> sheesh
[07:17] <dmglouis> marcn: prolly not only 3 comps
[07:17] <zaida> hholllllaaaaaaaaaaa
[07:18] <don-o> well its been a hoot. thanks all ubuntuians!
[07:18] <dmglouis> they both come up blank
[07:18] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, blank ?
[07:18] <dabaR> new windows scripting languagehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_PowerShell
[07:18] <jek> is there log file somewhere on ubuntu about the bootup if there is any problem?
[07:18] <stephans> leachiMic: that sucky scripting saved my ass lots of times...
[07:18] <dmglouis> only the headings come
[07:18] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, and you have an IP now ?
[07:18] <raintheory> still having RDP/VNC issues...     I can connect to our G5 running OSX Tiger, but I can't connect to my Dapper laptop downstairs...
[07:18] <dmglouis> reverseblade: no IP
[07:19] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, you told me you got an IP ?
[07:19] <dmglouis> reverseblade: i did get one, but after I did ifdown eth0... i lost it
[07:19] <raintheory> i get "connection refused"   ....    any ideas what I should check on the Dapper install I'm trying to connect to?
[07:20] <zyvolution> Hello
[07:20] <dmglouis> reverseblade: only way to get an IP now is to restart the whole comp
[07:20] <rambo3> did ip start with 17X. ?
[07:20] <dmglouis> IP started with 192.
[07:20] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, what's in your /etc/network/interfaces file ?
[07:20] <zyvolution> I am downloading the iso of ubuntu right now but do i have to burn it? or can i run it from windows xp?
[07:20] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, what happens now if you "sudo ifup eth0"
[07:21] <waylandbill> zyvolution, you need to burn it and then boot from it
[07:21] <zyvolution> k
[07:21] <ReverseBlade> zyvolution, you have to burn it
[07:21] <raintheory> zyvolution: burn it and boot with it...   is it the livecd?
[07:21] <zyvolution> thx
[07:21] <ReverseBlade> lol
[07:21] <zyvolution> i just downloaded the netherlands iso thingie
[07:21] <rambo3> dmglouis, i'dd rather use  sudo dhclient eth0
[07:21] <dmglouis> reverseblade: the interfaces file has auto lo and auto eth0 and eth0 is shcp
[07:21] <zyvolution> But does runescape run under linux? :P
[07:21] <dmglouis> reverseblade: *dhcp
[07:21] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, do as rambo3 said
[07:22] <waylandbill> zyvolution, if you install java it does.
[07:22] <zyvolution> k
[07:22] <zyvolution> i am going to like linux way more than that crappy winxp
[07:22] <MarcN> zyvolution: my kids play runescape.com with a linux desktop.  Now they want SecondLife, but have problems with unreadable fonts
[07:22] <dmglouis> reverseblade: what did rambo say?
[07:22] <zyvolution> strange
[07:22] <dmglouis> oh ok n/m
[07:23] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, sudo dhclient eht0
[07:23] <sureshot> zyvolution i do as well and just remember when you run linux your information stay your own LOLOL
[07:23] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, eth0
[07:23] <zyvolution> 5 hours ago i downloaded the winxp updates then my pc crashed :(
[07:23] <kmaynard> MarcN, winde or cedega?

[07:25] <zyvolution> ms is not that bad :D because i am a xbox360 user to
[07:26] <rambo3> dmglouis did you do this ,  : sudo route add default gw  <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:26] <waylandbill> isn't the xbox farmed out and just sold under the ms name?
[07:26] <ReverseBlade> daren, type mono in console
[07:26] <sureshot> zyvolution i use windows only for games and i am trying to get that taked care of LOLOLOL

[07:26] <zyvolution> but my favo game is for linux to : doom3
[07:26] <dmglouis> reverseblade: network is unreachable
[07:27] <daren> ReverseBlade, it works, I get the help output
[07:27] <ReverseBlade> rambo3, he can't even ping it
[07:27] <bogo> any one here who could help me out with nvidia geforce 7900gt 2 crt monitorz output?
[07:27] <dmglouis> reverseblade: let me restart
[07:27] <zyvolution> whats the problem?
[07:27] <zyvolution> i have a nvidia geforce to
[07:27] <raintheory> any suggestions on this VNC situation?   I get "vncviewer: ConnectToTcpAddr: connect: Connection Refused Unable to connect to VNC Server"
[07:27] <administrator__> anyone help with NFS mounting?
[07:27] <sureshot> ReverseBlade not been watching but it sounds like his card is not set up correctly
[07:27] <bogo> my problem?
[07:27] <administrator__> i think my NFS config is messed up
[07:27] <daren> mono --version: Mono JIT compiler version <IP_ADDRESS>, (C) 2002-2005 Novell, Inc and Contributors.
[07:27] <MarcN> raintheory: vncserver not running?
[07:27] <ReverseBlade> sureshot, I thought the same, but he claims, he receives an IP after rebooting
[07:28] <raintheory> nah its running, i just set it up and double-checked it
[07:28] <administrator__> i followed this => https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo#head-fc5f56ca8b26ee3d8b0e11291f6fe9df8b59a84d
[07:28] <rambo3> dmglouis, what does : dmesg |grep eth0 say
[07:28] <ReverseBlade> daren, what application is this ?
[07:28] <dmglouis> rambo3: let me check after restart
[07:28] <daren> it's a plugin for Banshee
[07:28] <dmglouis> rambo3: another 30 secs or so
[07:28] <daren> banshee-showtrackonchange
[07:28] <ReverseBlade> administrator_, I have read and write to my windows partition
[07:28] <raintheory> could iptables be blocking it somehow?
[07:28] <dmglouis> rambo3: what can I say, really old dell :)
[07:28] <bmud_> Greetings, all.
[07:28] <sureshot> ReverseBlade i have see things like this happen what is the sub net mask of what he gets is it <IP_ADDRESS> if so it is not set up correctly or the routor is not as well
[07:29] <dmglouis> i should check the subnet?
[07:29] <rambo3> np, i have intels ethernet card  that linux kernel people wont let work , in windows it works even if it  somewhat bad eeprom
[07:29] <daren> ReverseBlade: http://den-4.com/node/13
[07:29] <ReverseBlade> sureshot, I think there's a conflict in his story that he is not even aware of
[07:29] <Hybrid-Lord> Hey everyone
[07:30] <Hybrid-Lord> New Ubuntu user here..
[07:30] <dmglouis> rambo3: i did the grep thing and eth0 is Davicom something
[07:30] <bmud_> Coudl someone help me with XviD?
[07:30] <sureshot> ReverseBlade that may be so take him back to the beginning have him hard reset his router and then reconfigure it then see what happens
[07:30] <rambo3> dmglouis, just check for errors
[07:30] <raintheory> Hybrid-Lord: Hello
[07:30] <tonyyarusso> Welcome Hybrid-Lord
[07:30] <Hybrid-Lord> Hey hey!
[07:30] <dmglouis> rambo3: theres no ipv6 routers
[07:30] <designdream> thanks so much guys! i now have sound
[07:30] <dmglouis> rambo3: present
[07:31] <rambo3> thats not an error , so its working
[07:31] <sureshot> ReverseBlade sureshot is just tring to helpe dont mean to over step your abilities ok
[07:31] <ReverseBlade> sureshot, you follow it. I am not that skillful in this network stuff
[07:31] <bogo> any one here who could help me out with nvidia geforce 7900gt 2 crt monitorz output?
[07:31] <sureshot> ReverseBlade i will read as it goes ok
[07:31] <raintheory> brb
[07:31] <dmglouis> should i reset router or something
[07:31] <sureshot> ReverseBlade i dont have the ubuntu knowlege
[07:32] <dmglouis> but if i do i'll disconnect here :)
[07:32] <bertugolu> hey everyone, my screen refresh rate is 60 hz, but i want it more...in screen reslolution, it wont allow me, how can i do it/
[07:32] <bertugolu> ?
[07:32] <ReverseBlade> daren, I think the software itself is buggy
[07:32] <Hybrid-Lord> Well, I must say i find Ubuntu quite refreshing. I've tried Debian and Redhat, aswell as 3 days of compiling Gentoo. wha.
[07:32] <eetfunk> how do i ssh into a different port?  I tried ssh -d 1234 hostname but it doesnt work...
[07:32] <sureshot> dmglouis read up on your router there is a little button you push with a paper clip reset it via instructions then reconfigure your router for your network ok
[07:32] <ReverseBlade> sureshot, he doesn't need it. since everything is in console this is not distro-specific
[07:33] <rambo3> dmglouis, try that
[07:33] <dmglouis> alright it'll take a while
[07:33] <dmglouis> i'll be back in bout 5 mins i guess
[07:33] <daren> ReverseBlade, it says I can manually add MONO_CFLAGS and MONO_LIBS, where would I look for these?
[07:33] <sureshot> ok dmglouis i figured as much
[07:33] <ReverseBlade> daren, to your .bashrc file
[07:34] <bmud_> bertugolu, refresh rate is in the resolution panel for me.
[07:34] <sureshot> ReverseBlade i was a network eng in ms and novell for about 20 years or more LOL linux is new to me
[07:34] <daren> no, I mean what path is MONO_CFLAGS in ubuntu?
[07:34] <ReverseBlade> daren, then reopen the terminal
[07:34] <daren> I suppose MONO_LIBS = /usr/lib/mono
[07:34] <michoelc> Hi all. I wanted to know if there is a way to make my ubuntu partition smaller, so I can make another partition as well? TIA.
[07:35] <ReverseBlade> sureshot, wow, linux is 15 years old in deed
[07:35] <dabaR> michoelc: do you use gnome?
[07:35] <wolfbane_691> hey does any 1 know if automatix is any good or not
[07:35] <ReverseBlade> sureshot, but if you consider the *nix background it is prolly older than you :)
[07:35] <dabaR> !automatix
[07:35] <ubotu> automatix is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://www.getautomatix.com/ ; For help with and discussion of automatix please join #automatix.
[07:35] <dmglouis_> alright im back
[07:35] <dmglouis_> the ubuntu pc still has IP
[07:35] <wolfbane_691> is it bad
[07:36] <ReverseBlade> dmglouis, now , route -r
[07:36] <dabaR> wolfbane_691: some say so.
[07:36] <michoelc> dabaR: I have gnome, but I usually don't use it 'cus it's a very old computer with no RAM.. but I do have it..
[07:36] <sureshot> ReverseBlade well when your money is in somthing you dont pay attention to anything else i always thought linux is just something that was run for thing that for just for one application and such
[07:36] <rambo3> dmglouis:sudo route add default netmask <IP_ADDRESS> &&  sudo route add default gw  <IP_ADDRESS> && sudo dhclient eth0
[07:36] <wolfbane_691> can it mess ur linux box up
[07:36] <nenita> ola
[07:36] <dabaR> michoelc: there are parted gparted and qtparted, look into those on google
[07:37] <ReverseBlade> sureshot, may be. I have no experience on this
[07:37] <michoelc> dabaR: Okay.. I will, thanks.. do I have to defragmentise first or something?
[07:37] <nenita><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[07:37] <nenita> agregadme
[07:37] <dabaR> michoelc: no
[07:37] <dmglouis_> rambo3: i have an error for the first part

[07:37] <michoelc> dabaR: Okay.. so thanks for the help.

[07:39] <dmglouis_> thanks rambo and reverseblade:
[07:39] <jason^> is there a way to maintain iptables rules over reboots?
[07:40] <Hybrid-Lord> So, just out of curiosity, If I have flash player 7.0 and the update says It's up-to-date, yet i need 8.0, how would I go about getting it?
[07:40] <ReverseBlade> jason^, worst case , save them into a file, and add them with a script after reboot
[07:40] <jason^> ReverseBlade: that's what i'm doing now
[07:40] <bruenig> Hybrid-Lord, flash 8 doesn't exist for linux, they are supposed to be making flash 9 soon
[07:40] <ianmacgregor> Hybrid-Lord: I don't think flash 8 is available for Linux yet
[07:40] <Hybrid-Lord> Aha, that would explain alot.
[07:40] <bruenig> flash 8 won't ever be available for linux as they chose not to port that
[07:40] <ReverseBlade> Hybrid-Lord, flash 8 will not be released for linux
[07:41] <fnf> Hybrid-Lord: Abode has implicitly stopped supporting for Flash for Linux, 7.0 is the newest version.
[07:41] <wolfbane_691> how do i install libxine-extracodecs
[07:41] <ReverseBlade> flash 9 will be available on early 2007
[07:41] <ianmacgregor> bruenig: :(
[07:41] <TheGateKeeper> Hybrid-Lord: linux doesn't have 8 but I do have a frig which sometimes works if you want it
[07:41] <Hybrid-Lord> Sure gatekeeper, I'd love to give it a try.
[07:41] <bruenig> ianmacgregor, they are going to jump straight to 9 though and the beta should be out reasonably soon
[07:41] <ianmacgregor> That's good to hear
[07:41] <ReverseBlade> Hybrid-Lord, you can always run like, installing firefox for windows over wine
[07:42] <fnf> ReverseBlade, that's good, but where did you get that info from ?
[07:42] <Hybrid-Lord> Although, I have to warn ya TheGateKeeper, I'm quite new to Linux.
[07:42] <ReverseBlade> fnf, I've read it from ubuntu forums, there is a howto on that
[07:42] <Hybrid-Lord> ReverseBlade: I saw that a few times while googling it. Although i have no idea how to do that heh
[07:42] <TheGateKeeper> !libxine-extracodecs > wolfbane_691
[07:42] <ReverseBlade> fnf, which one ? wine thing or flash 9 thing ?
[07:43] <ReverseBlade> Hybrid-Lord, just search the forums
[07:43] <Hybrid-Lord> Being able to wine flash 8.5...
[07:43] <bruenig> I use ie6 with flash 8 for my flash 8 stuff
[07:43] <wolfbane_691> says command not found
[07:43] <bruenig> through wine of course
[07:44] <Hybrid-Lord> Hmmmm
[07:44] <paya> Hi all I'm having a problem after installing an i686 kernel on a fresh install
[07:44] <ReverseBlade> if IE runs on linux then every software runs theoretically on linux
[07:44] <Hybrid-Lord> *nods*
[07:44] <paya> after installing i686 kernel system won't shutdown properly I have to turn off manually
[07:44] <fnf> ReverseBlade, I meant Flash 9, I remembered not so long ago there was a post on Slashdot talking about Flash support for Linux, the only way to contact the (only) developer is through his blog.
[07:44] <xamox> what mail server does everyone recommend for a web server that (runs apache w/ a CMS) and all I want to be able to have it do is just send e-mails from the website.
[07:44] <paya> pressing the case power button turns the pc off instead of ivoking shutdown
[07:45] <bruenig> ReverseBlade, hmmm, it works in a compatibility layer, theoretically anything runs on anything so long as it has some sort of compatibility depedencies and such met
[07:45] <TheGateKeeper> Hybrid-Lord: well you could try this --> kate ~/.mozilla/firefox/pluginreg.dat then change Shockwave Flash 7.0 r68:$ to Shockwave Flash 9.0 r68:$
[07:45] <mrmknet> Can someone guide me thru intalling nvidia driver?
[07:45] <wolfbane_691> how do i get libxine-extracodecs to install
[07:46] <bruenig> wolfbane_691, sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs
[07:46] <wolfbane_691> ah ok
[07:46] <TheGateKeeper> wolfbane_691: apt-get install libxine-extracodecs
[07:46] <paya> Anyone know if you're supposed to do anything extra after installing a new kernel and booting into it?
[07:46] <ianmacgregor> Why do people use wine? Aren't they worried about it running Windows exploits? http://blogs.zdnet.com/Ou/index.php?p=146
[07:46] <bruenig> wolfbane_691, make sure you have enabled the multiverse repositories
[07:46] <TheGateKeeper> wolfbane_691: sudo apt-get install libxine-extracodecs  ooops
[07:47] <bruenig> ianmacgregor, if it gets exploited and all virused up, you just delete the .wine directory and its gone, all the viruses are going to be localized to that directory
[07:47] <ianmacgregor> bruenig: Ahh, ok. But, still able to pass on viruses/trojans to other computers?
[07:47] <jokoon> Is amd athlon 2200+ called 386 ?
[07:47] <wolfbane_691> im trying to get amarok to work and it wont play my mp3`s
[07:48] <wolfbane_691> it says it can not load
[07:48] <bruenig> ianmacgregor, perhaps, I am not sure there
[07:48] <wolfbane_691> mp3
[07:48] <Hybrid-Lord> wolfbane_691: I'm using XMMS, works fine.
[07:48] <wolfbane_691> is it pretty?
[07:48] <Hybrid-Lord> Eh....
[07:48] <Hybrid-Lord> Basic winamp type theme.
[07:48] <bruenig> wolfbane_691, you don't have the proper codecs
[07:48] <paya> jokoon> No it's atleast 686
[07:48] <Hybrid-Lord> old school winamp..

[07:48] <{_-IcE-_}> can someone tell me how to start 2 processes at boot? dont have them in /etc/init.d
[07:48] <whyso> why do my torrents go retardedly fast in ubuntu?
[07:49] <wolfbane_691> how do i get the codecs
[07:49] <bruenig> whyso, lots of seeds?
[07:49] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, you may put the global commands in /etc/rc.local or local commands in your bash.rc files.
[07:49] <whyso> ? ammount of seeds same with any os right
[07:50] <bruenig> whyso, yeah but maybe you jumped on a different torrent when you were using ubuntu or whatnot
[07:50] <bruenig> wolfbane_691, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[07:50] <whyso> nope same torrent (started it over cauese of reinstall)
[07:50] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: will that load them at bootup with proftpd and other services? (before gui)
[07:50] <paya> whyso> maybe your other os is clogged up with spyware, viruses etc
[07:50] <wolfbane_691> k thanx
[07:50] <whyso> and its 15x faster
[07:50] <whyso> thas possible :)
[07:51] <mcquaid> does anyone use onboard unichrome pro (s3g)? I'm wondering what the opengl performance is like
[07:51] <A_Square> hello all
[07:51] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, sure, if you put them in rc.local, commands in bash.rc will otherwise be executed after you login.
[07:51] <highvoltage> hello
[07:51] <jokoon> On https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia , I don't understand the "6. Find the appropriate module for your kernel. For example, if you have linux-image-amd64-k8 installed, then you should install linux-restricted-modules-amd64-k8." How can I know about my kernel ? What package should I check knowing there already are 4 with a green icon ?
[07:51] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: tnx, lemme give it a try :)
[07:51] <ks1> jokoon: uname -a
[07:52] <paya> So nobody has any answer for my kernel question?
[07:52] <ZiRo> which folder contains the "home" template for all new users created?
[07:52] <der0b> ziro: /etc/skel
[07:52] <ATAQ> from the command line how do I mount a network server
[07:52] <TubaSoldier> Question: I just recently installed mepis on my laptop. So far so good. the only issue i have is that the arts sound server seems to be broken. has anyone else had this issue?
[07:53] <ZiRo> der0b: thank you so much
[07:53] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: can i run a process not as root from there also?
[07:53] <der0b> np :)
[07:53] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, btw, make sure rc.local is executed at boot time (by default it is, unless you messed with the init.d/ dir)
[07:53] <{_-IcE-_}> su user before?
[07:53] <A_Square> I have been trying to set up apapche virtual hosting on dapper.  I have no a strange instance... my alias brings up my router login page!  I am dumbfounded nad google hasnt been too helpful... anyone have experience woth this?  I am pretty experienced linux user and have never seen this
[07:53] <raintheory> jokoon:   in a terminal type uname -r
[07:53] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, Yup, rc.local can run any commands.
[07:53] <raintheory> for your kernel version
[07:54] <der0b> jokoon: you could install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[07:54] <ZiRo> how can i defaultly set the default folder permissions of new users' home directorys so that they are inaccessable by anyone but the owner?
[07:54] <ZiRo> (and anyone with higher access privilages)
[07:54] <paya> System shuts down all the way to halting system then it just stands there on 686 kernel but no problem on 386 kernel
[07:55] <boink> ZiRo: chmod 664 blah
[07:55] <paya> It can't turn off the computer
[07:55] <boink> or even stricter, if you need that
[07:55] <boink> man chmod
[07:55] <ZiRo> boink: yes, but how do i set that as the default for all newly created users?
[07:55] <A[D] minS> i created file @ /var/www
[07:55] <fnf> Ziro: try setting umask value.
[07:55] <A[D] minS> file.php
[07:55] <boink> that's set somewhere in profiles or something like that
[07:56] <A[D] minS> and now i can't write any files or in files which in /var/www
[07:56] <A[D] minS> Permission denied
[07:56] <A[D] minS> so how i can give Permission to normal user to write ?
[07:56] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: tnx dude... seems to have worked well tho 1 failed... i think i know why, were can i check the logs to make sure?
[07:56] <jokoon> Is it normal that I have 2.6.15-27-386, a 386 kernel, knowing I have an Athlon 2200+ beeing a 686 ?
[07:56] <aoupi> ZiRo: I don't know if it'll work but try changing the permisions of the skel dir (/etc/skel)
[07:57] <boink> I think it's there
[07:57] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, what is the failed command ?
[07:57] <{_-IcE-_}> tried to start an eggdrop...
[07:57] <{_-IcE-_}> su username
[07:57] <boink> he
[07:57] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, all the system log files are saved under /var/log/
[07:57] <{_-IcE-_}> than usual
[07:58] <raintheory> jokoon: you could always install the 686 and see if you get a performance increase
[07:58] <ZiRo> aoupi, i was thinking about that, but i was weary i'll try though
[07:59] <jokoon> raintheory : That does not speak a lot for me ;-(
[07:59] <A[D] minS> !chmod
[07:59] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[07:59] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, I presume 'su username' is for changing the current user ?, what's for ?.
[07:59] <LimonJalisciense> i was working with a samba network but now i would like to make a non-windows network how can i do that
[07:59] <_martin_> How do I get openoffice to print to the kdeprinter?
[07:59] <sureshot> jokoon i got quite a difference with the 686 kernel ... beryl ran much quicker and such it seems to work well
[07:59] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: yep, coz it wont start if ur root
[08:00] <{_-IcE-_}> cant find anything in the logs as yet
[08:00] <A_Square> anyone working with virtual hosting on dapper server?
[08:00] <jokoon> sureshot : And how can I install this kernel ?
[08:00] <fjleonma> tu xx pichurrin
[08:00] <redkrieg_> I'm getting vnc authentication failed when I try to VNC in to my home machine.  I've tried running vncpasswd using the currently logged in user account to change the password, but no go.  Any ideas?
[08:00] <sureshot> jokoon i dont know the app-get command but it is in the repos if you search on it
[08:00] <sureshot> jokoon using synaptic
[08:01] <raintheory> jokoon: 386 is fine, it will work, but you can always install the 686 version and see if it works better.  It's not too hard to do, and it will give you both kernels in the grub menu so you can always switch back
[08:01] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, that's not really a failure but a feature IMO, can't you just log in as that user ?.
[08:01] <sureshot> can someone give jokoon the apt-get command to install the 686 kernal
[08:01] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: but i want its process to start at bootup
[08:01] <A[D] minS> <A[D] minS> how i can access /var/www as normal user ?
[08:01] <A[D] minS> <A[D] minS> want to set Permissions for normal user
[08:01] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, btw, rc.local is executed before any user is logged in, so 'su' wouldn't actually work.
[08:02] <ZiRo> altering the user permissions of the skel folder was no good
[08:02] <redkrieg_> jokoon, should be sudo apt-get install linux-686
[08:02] <redlance> Time for everybody's favorite subject!  ATI drivers!  I followed the binary driver install how-to, but when I do fglrxinfo I still get that MESA crap...
[08:02] <jokoon> RedKrieg : thank you
[08:02] <der0b> jokoon: linux-image-686
[08:02] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: ic, any way around it? it wont run as root and i want it to start at bootup
[08:02] <redkrieg_> jokoon: np
[08:02] <sureshot> RedKrieg thanks i will put that in my cheat cheat
[08:03] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, if that's a process an ordinary user can manipulate, it would be more convenient to put the command in your bash.rc
[08:03] <M_A_K> I just installed ubuntu.  How do I install KDE now?
[08:03] <aoupi> M_A_K: apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[08:03] <M_A_K> There are many items in synaptic for KDE.
[08:03] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: but it would start once that user logs in then right?
[08:04] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, yes
[08:04] <{_-IcE-_}> fnf: i want it to load before
[08:04] <aoupi> M_A_K: or grab kubuntu-desktop in synaptic
[08:04] <jokoon> Mh, error message
[08:04] <eetfunk> how do i get a list of installed packages from the command line?
[08:04] <M_A_K> aoupi : I didn't think of looking for kubuntu.  Thanks.  Will that change the greeter and log in screen?
[08:05] <elvar> !paste
[08:05] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[08:05] <aoupi> M_A_K: it should change everything, just reboot when it is installed
[08:05] <fnf> {_-IcE-_}, another way is to change the owner of that process to a particular user, but I haven't done it yet.
[08:05] <der0b> m_a_k: if you select to use kdm during install it will change the greeter
[08:05] <M_A_K> I dont necessarily want to switch to kubuntu, just play around with kde.
[08:05] <{_-IcE-_}> hm, i think thats what i need then
[08:05] <redlance> Any suggestions?  (Other then get an Invidia card)
[08:05] <raintheory> what command can i add to the end of a script to restart x?
[08:05] <jokoon> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[08:05] <der0b> m_a_k: just select gdm when prompter
[08:05] <M_A_K> I tried installing kubuntu, but was not very comfortable with it.  I kind of like Gnome.
[08:05] <der0b> m_a_k: just select gdm when prompted
[08:06] <krazykit> jokoon: if you have any other package manager running, close it

[08:08] <noneee> hello, I've installed beryl and xgl.. all is working ok but video is a bit slow.. I have an ati radeon mobility 9200
[08:08] <krazykit> noneee: that'd be because you're using a mobility 9200.
[08:08] <bogo> hi
[08:08] <tonyyarusso> noneee: Ask in #ubuntu-xgl for that kind of stuff.
[08:08] <bogo> any one could help me with twin monitor?
[08:09] <noneee> also opengl games are slow
[08:09] <noneee> (when not using xgl)
[08:09] <furesta> Hi folks, could someone tell me if it's safe to delete all the packages in var/cache/apt?
[08:09] <noneee> but dri is working
[08:09] <krazykit> furesta: no, don't do taht.  use apt-get clean and apt-get autoclean
[08:10] <defrysk> furesta, simply sudo apt-get clean
[08:10] <r00k> hey
[08:10] <furesta> defrysk: Thx a lot!
[08:10] <r00k> does anyone know how to get a dell 922 pringer driver
[08:10] <antoni> hey has anybody succesfuly set up wifi for an 'Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG' card/
[08:11] <slacktyro> i'm not able to download the jre through apt-get, i already enable multiverse servers
[08:11] <der0b> slacktyro: did you apt-get update after adding multiverse?
[08:11] <noneee> great tonyyarusso
[08:11] <AlienX> ubotu, tell antoni about wireless
[08:12] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: What happens when you try?
[08:12] <oddjob151> hello ... I just put together a new PC.. Abit AB9 Pro with Intel Core Duo E6600 2.4 GHz with Nvidia GeForce 7600 GT  ... I am trying to install Ubuntu AMD64 using the iso however I cannot get it past "Booting Kernel", it freezes... i've read some forum posts and tried noacpi but without any luck... can someone help me install Ubuntu 64 on my machine? or point me in the right direction
[08:13] <farous> hi wondering anyone can link me to a link for information on how to make a homepage for a course i am teaching. I am mainly looking for a free site that might host the course homepage. I know this is little off topic but i know you are a great community :)
[08:13] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: Package name is sun-java5-bin
[08:14] <ZiRo> ive even tried editing usr/sbin/adduser
[08:14] <tonyyarusso> farous: Ask every once in a while in #ubuntu-offtopic (that's where we handle the great-community-but-not-support... kind of stuff)
[08:14] <ZiRo> i changed the chmod from 0755 to 0750 and no joy :\
[08:14] <r00k> does anyone know how to get a dell 922 pringer driver
[08:14] <maverick`-> oddjob151, Intel Core Duo is 32bit, not 64bit
[08:14] <slacktyro> der0b: tonyyarusso i try jre, jre* there're lot of packages but not the one that i want
[08:14] <maverick`-> and AMD is not Intel ;)
[08:15] <farous> tonyyarusso: fair enough
[08:15] <der0b> maverick`-: core2 doesn't support emt64?
[08:15] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: You want sun-java5-bin; is that not available?
[08:15] <r00k> whats a good channel to discuss printer drivers?
[08:16] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: it's not finding this package
[08:16] <maverick`-> der0b, oh my failure.
[08:16] <sergevn_> Good evening, I have a question, i have plugged my usbharddrive in my ubuntu machine, it autmounts prefect, but my question is: how can i configure autmount? so that it mounts using ntfs-fuse
[08:16] <maverick`-> you are right, it support emt64
[08:16] <_azrael> Hey, does anyone know a good way to resolve this:
[08:16] <_azrael> The following packages have unmet dependencies:rn  libxine-dev: Depends: libxine-main1 (= 1.1.1+ubuntu2-7) but 1.1.1+ubuntu2-7.2 is to be installedrnE: Broken packages
[08:16] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: Which ones do you see?  (Did you update after adding multiverse?)
[08:16] <krazykit> r00k: dunno, check linuxprinting's site to see if there's an irc channel
[08:17] <_azrael> I've looked around for another package name that might include the headers, but I haven't seen anything else.
[08:17] <_azrael> Ideas?
[08:17] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Let me know if you find out.
[08:17] <oddjob151> maverick: to my understanding the Intel Core Duo E6600 supports the Extended Memory 64 Technology EM64T which is "supported" in the Ubuntu 64 bit version
[08:17] <maverick`-> der0b, core 2 duo is 64bit, but only core duo is 32 bit.
[08:17] <r00k> thx
[08:17] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: yep, when i try apt-get install sun-java5-bin
[08:17] <M_A_K> Where does ubuntu store the wallpaper pictures?
[08:17] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: it returns not found
[08:17] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: What do you have available?
[08:18] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: i havent found a solution yet :), i was asking the channel because i cant find it on tech forums etc.
[08:18] <oddjob151> maveric: my apologies, I have the Intel Core 2 Duo
[08:18] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: yeah..I'm sure someone knows; I just haven't found them yet.
[08:18] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: you mean at source.list?
[08:18] <_azrael> Are header files simply lacking for this package at this time? I would like to avoid installing too many packages from source, but if I can't get the -dev package in I'll need to.
[08:18] <coyctecm> what's the status of metacity composite support in edgy
[08:18] <maverick`-> oddjob151, maybe i had better to read...
[08:19] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: No; you said you found other packages but not that one.  Which ones?
[08:19] <tonyyarusso> coyctecm: #ubuntu+1 for edgy questions
[08:19] <coyctecm> I have added Section "Extensions" Option "Composite" "Enable" EndSection in xorg.conf, but nothing happens
[08:19] <UbuntuGuy> ALl -- any idea how edgy is coming?
[08:19] <coyctecm> ok
[08:20] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: i found other packages when i try jre*
[08:20] <tonyyarusso> UbuntuGuy: #ubuntu+1 for yours also :)
[08:20] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: Like...?
[08:20] <oddjob151> can anyone help me with installing 64 bit Ubuntu on an Intel Core 2 Duo machine? I am having trouble getting the cd to boot past a certain poing (sits at "Booting Kernel")
[08:20] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: docbook-jrefentry
[08:20] <UbuntuGuy> join #ubuntu+1
[08:21] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: I also tried adding it to /etc/fstab, but then it creates 2 mount points, the one i configged in fstab and an autogenerated location; example: fstab, /media/data    automount then creates /media/data-1
[08:21] <UbuntuGuy> tonyyarusso: thanks!
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Eww.
[08:21] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: Sounds like you have universe added but not multiverse.
[08:21] <totall_6_7> oddjob151: try this site if you want info on what intell chips support 64 bit http://or1cedar.cps.intel.com/isn/community/en-us/blogs/mult-core_com/archive/2006/09/20/30224178.aspx
[08:21] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: I can work with it, but i want to just edit the automount configuration :)
[08:21] <RedKrieg|Work> does anyone know where the vnc settings are stored for the built in remote desktop utility?  I'm connected via ssh and don't have access to the gui to configure
[08:22] <mirro-irc> ok, i'm absolutely new to linux, i downloaded Mozilla2beta in .gz file. What am i supposed to do now to install it??
[08:22] <lob22> i just installed 6.10 beta and i have a wireless network and wen i do dhcp for the wireless card it dont connect me to the internet
[08:22] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Yeah, my hope was to mount flash drives with the "sync" option so I could pull them out whenever without unmounting.
[08:22] <bruenig> mirro-irc, extract it and then run the script
[08:22] <KenSentMe> mirro-irc: normally you install things with synaptic/adept
[08:22] <whyso> im on regular ubuntu now, is it too late to switch over to kde?
[08:22] <bruenig> KenSentMe, it is not available in the repos
[08:22] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: that is working with me, hot swappable, but not mounting it hotswappable with writeable access
[08:22] <tonyyarusso> mirro-irc: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FirefoxNewVersion if you're trying those.
[08:23] <briguyd> whyso, nope
[08:23] <sureshot> hey all if i wanted to install edgy on a usb device can that be done and boot it as well my puter has not floppy drive
[08:23] <whyso> ive installed gnome packages, id have to remove those at the least right?
[08:23] <RedKrieg|Work> whyso: no, you can sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[08:23] <briguyd> whyso, no, you can just install kubuntu-desktop
[08:23] <lob22> can somone help me
[08:23] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: it is a NTFS partition with all my data on it :)
[08:23] <whyso> wow so cool
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> whyso: Nope.  You can add kubuntu-desktop and have both, or remove Gnome if you wish.
[08:23] <briguyd> whyso, and you'll have both gnome and KDE
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Could be important
[08:23] <KenSentMe> bruenig: i know, but if someone is new i don think he or she wants to compile stuff
[08:23] <briguyd> whyso, and xubuntu-desktop for xfce
[08:23] <tonyyarusso> sureshot: Yes, you can install to usb devices now.
[08:24] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: i uncoment all server at sources.list
[08:24] <tonyyarusso> !ask > lob22
[08:24] <whyso> nice! this is so crazily better than windows
[08:24] <totall_6_7> briguyd: how does one switch between the two desktops gnome and kde??
[08:24] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: still not working
[08:24] <KenSentMe> mirro-irc: maybe you should read http://help.ubuntu.com first about installing etc
[08:24] <briguyd> totall_6_7, log out and change your "session"
[08:24] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: That's not enough.
[08:24] <bruenig> KenSentMe, perhaps although there no compilation for that, it is just precompiled binaries, but I get your point
[08:24] <tonyyarusso> !multiverse > slacktyro
[08:24] <lob22> tonyyarusso i just installed 6.10 beta and i have a wireless network and wen i do dhcp for the wireless card it dont connect me to the internet
[08:24] <totall_6_7> thanks briguyd :)
[08:24] <ianmacgregor> lob22: /join #ubuntu+1
[08:24] <RedKrieg|Work> lob22 I reccomend joining #ubuntu+1
[08:25] <briguyd> totall_6_7, any time
[08:25] <sureshot> tonyyarusso good i have a usb converter to sata with a 250gb drive want to try edgy with out messing up my dapper
[08:25] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: I tried disabling it in the Prerences> Removeable Drives and Media, and then manual mounting them, but then he cant find the device anymore in /dev/
[08:25] <whyso> will my old apps still be runnable (ones that depend on gnome) from kde?
[08:25] <bruenig> whyso yes
[08:25] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Maybe they're just named differently?
[08:25] <whyso> too awsome :)!!
[08:26] <lob22> iight thanks
[08:26] <briguyd> whyso, and KDE apps run under gnome
[08:26] <totall_6_7> whyso: even so it seems that you can switch between them just by logging on and switching sessions
[08:26] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: so, i'm lost :)
[08:26] <totall_6_7> whyso: so if you do not like it, no loss
[08:26] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: The devices, yes but what i can find it dmesg when i plug in the hdd, it says /dev/sdb1, but when i try to mount then he cant find the device.
[08:26] <Jhonny1009> why do pages in firefox look so much different than in windows? it's not even close
[08:27] <sergevn_>  tonyyarusso: sorry for crappy english :)
[08:27] <bruenig> Jhonny1009, windows is not a web browse, so that is probably where the problem is.
[08:27] <whyso> ah ok, ty for the help, one more q: how do i get my drives to mount automatically when i boot
[08:27] <tonyyarusso> slacktyro: You need to add the word multiverse on the end of the line that had universe, essentially.  The link from the bot will have more detail.
[08:27] <slacktyro> Jhonny1009: try ctrl plus
[08:27] <bruenig> browser*
[08:27] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Hmm, don't know what it's doing then.
[08:27] <Jhonny1009> bruenig I ment firefox in windows :)
[08:28] <sergevn_> Jhonny1009: Because it's a different browser, just like you buy a mercedes and a fiat panda, it's both a car :P
[08:28] <tonyyarusso> Jhonny1009: Define different please?
[08:28] <Jhonny1009> slacktyro, I tryed that.. still looks very different
[08:28] <bruenig> Jhonny1009, how so, I know there are different fonts and stuff but other than that it should be the same
[08:28] <whyso> Jhonny1009: you maybe had plugins/themes on teh windows one?
[08:29] <slacktyro> tonyyarusso: thank you man, now it's updating
[08:29] <Jhonny1009> there are different fonts.. ye, text relative sizes are verrryy different
[08:29] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: ah well, my cousin is coming to visit this evening, and he's a debain guru so hopefully he can fix it :), ill let you know then i solved the problem :)
[08:29] <whyso> Jhonny1009: i think you can download the windows fonts search in synaptic
[08:29] <slacktyro> Jhonny1009: press ctrl and + to zoom in and ctrl and - to zoom out
[08:30] <tonyyarusso> Jhonny1009: Yeah, fonts and that sort of thing are to be expected, although they can be changed.  Many of the fonts you're used to are owned by MS, and can't be redistributed legally by Ubuntu, although you can get them separately on your own.
[08:30] <tonyyarusso> !msttcorefonts > Jhonny1009
[08:30] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Sweet
[08:30] <whyso> tonyyarusso: thats mean :(
[08:31] <Jhonny1009> hmm .. looking at te fonts thing
[08:31] <tonyyarusso> whyso: What, owning fonts?
 !msttcorefonts > Jhonny1009
[08:32] <totall_6_7> !msttcorefonts > totall_6_7
[08:32] <totall_6_7> cool
[08:32] <whyso> whats that even mean, that your less that a font :?)
[08:33] <whyso> than*
[08:34] <tonyyarusso> whyso: Hehe, no.
[08:34] <totall_6_7> whyso look at your private message from ubotu
[08:34] <tonyyarusso> !ubotu > whyso
[08:34] <totall_6_7> now there is a math oriented person, or a programmer
[08:35] <totall_6_7> lol
[08:35] <whyso> hahah cool
[08:35] <TaPiOn> Hello
[08:35] <TaPiOn> how can i accelere the trackpad (powerbook) ?
[08:37] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: i solved the problem, just disable the automounting in the Preferences>Removable Media and Devices, then edit fstab and add the following line: /dev/sdb1 /media/data ntfs-fuse auto,gid=1001,umask=0002 0 0              ntfs-fuse is software to write to ntfs, and it works :)
[08:37] <Kopiekat> hi

Ok...how can I configure to an apropiatthe keyboard....mine is spanish...and the command I am using is this xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.us ...I tryed with .es, but doesnt exist...some help?
[08:38] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Interesting.
[08:38] <tonyyarusso> jessid: Better off using the Gnome keyboard layout selector than manually doing the whole thing.
[08:38] <aoupi> jessid: setxkbmap es
[08:38] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: Hope it's clear, im not so good in discribing things in english :)
[08:39] <jessid> aoupi ok...let me see...
[08:39] <tonyyarusso> sergevn_: Meh, fstab is universal :)
[08:39] <Kopiekat> having a problem with the desktop cd: when i startup with the cd in my drive, everything works fine, i log on etc. I just can't use my keyboard...

[08:39] <tonyyarusso> !restricted > x3r0
[08:39] <sergevn_> tonyyarusso: Well im quite a rookie in linux myself so for me it's like "EUREKA!" :P
[08:39] <KenSentMe> x3r0: avi out of the box and after installing some packages
[08:40] <aoupi> jessid: :) you'll want to change it in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf as well
[08:40] <x3r0> KenSentMe, mk
[08:40] <whyso> x3r0: if you want a package just use synaptics search
[08:40] <aoupi> jessid: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and find the line that has XkbLayout set it to es instead of us
[08:41] <Kopiekat> anyone knows why i cannot type anything when i start up with the desktop-cd?
[08:41] <Kopiekat> my keyboard is a default compaq keyboard.
[08:42] <jessid> aoupi i will tell you the truth,... I am trying to configure XGL and there is a step that I have to do this xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.us...i would like to load the correct keyboard
[08:43] <slacktyro> i'll have to study now, thank you for the help, bye
[08:43] <jessid> aoupi man, I cant use alt key...with that command you told me :(

[08:43] <whyso> umm sry if this is offtopic, but is there a way to turn off leaving/entering messages in irc?
[08:44] <elvar> why is my ubuntu slow .to save file like 11mb to my harddisk ??????????????????????????????????????????????????
[08:44] <Psychobudgie> whyso,  what irc client are you using?
[08:44] <elvar> this is just new for me please help nme
[08:44] <elvar> me*
[08:44] <Donald1> hello, how can i connect to wireless without having to enter my WEP each time?
[08:44] <whyso> xchat
[08:45] <Psychobudgie> in xchat do /set irc_conf_mode 1
[08:45] <whyso> elvar: what type of partiton is it
[08:45] <Donald1> hello, how can i connect to wireless without having to enter my WEP each time?
[08:45] <unstable> I've got a thinkpad x22 laptop, 800 mhz(PIII), with 128 megs of ram, and 3 gig hdd. What is a good distribution of GNU/Linux to use on it? It's for a teacher.
[08:45] <Psychobudgie> or right click on the channel name and highlight the channel name and untick show join/part message
[08:45] <whyso> elvar: for me ubuntu is about 10x faster than windows...
[08:45] <unstable> The teacher probably needs a web browser, email client, and office suite
[08:46] <ZiRo> can i post a link to the forum as an attempt to gain some answers to my question?
[08:46] <crocd> add the key to your wireless card Donald1
[08:46] <tonyyarusso> Donald1: It should store in either the default network config, or network-manager.  Don't know why it's not for you.
[08:46] <aoupi> jessid: try setxkbmap es nodeadkeys
[08:46] <unstable> Is it possible/easy to modify gnome to run half decent on this machine with ubuntu?
[08:46] <whyso> Donald1: edubuntu would be good for a teacher
[08:46] <elvar> please check this file :S -> http://download.mozilla.org/?product=suite-1.7.13&os=win&lang=en-US .i am trying to safe this baby to my harddisk /home/ folder*
[08:46] <elvar> it is taKING ME so long time :(
[08:46] <whyso> i mean unstable
[08:46] <unstable> whyso: edubuntu is for a student, not teacher. and this is a college teacher
[08:47] <tonyyarusso> unstable: Any Ubuntu will fit on 3 gig, although not with huge amounts of room.  Ubuntu will run on 800/128, but maybe not ideal.  I'd recommend Xubuntu (Ubuntu with XFCE instead of Gnome).
[08:47] <Donald1> crocd: how do i access my wireless card?
[08:47] <crocd> elvar: why dont you just use terminal to download it?
[08:47] <unstable> tonyyarusso: And for web browser/email/office suite?
[08:47] <whyso> ah ok, since you said it was for a slower laptop then there was a lighter distrib, like xbuntu
[08:47] <elvar> crocd couse i dont know how to do it
[08:47] <jessid> aoupi cant use alt+F2
[08:48] <icheyne> unstable, Xubuntu is v. nice
[08:48] <tonyyarusso> unstable: I believe Firefox/Evolution/OOo just like the Gnome version, but let me check on that.  (You can get whatever you want; not sure what's default)
[08:48] <whyso> unstable: i heard 6.10 faster too
[08:48] <aoupi> jessid: open up a terminal and type it in there
[08:48] <Donald1> crocd: how do i access my wireless card?
[08:48] <Keps> xubuntu comes default with thunderbird instead of evolution
[08:48] <jessid> aoupi yes I have already done it, but still having problems with alt F2
[08:49] <Keps> but you can apt-get it if you want
[08:49] <crocd> Donald1: is it on ubuntu?
[08:49] <Donald1> crocd: yes
[08:49] <elvar> please guys what could be wrong http://download.mozilla.org/?product=suite-1.7.13&os=win&lang=en-US :S it is taking me 1 hr and 40 min :( what is wrong with my linux ?
[08:49] <gholen> Is it safe to mig dapper reposteries with edgy reposteris?
[08:50] <gholen> *mix
[08:50] <crocd> elvar: wget http://download.mozilla.org/?product=suite-1.7.13&os=win&lang=en-US
[08:50] <Ranbee> hi, is there an ubuntu based distro that's lighter than xubuntu?
[08:50] <Samuli^> ubuntu-server :)
[08:50] <tonyyarusso> unstable: Firefox, Thunderbird, Abiword/Gnumeric are default.
[08:50] <Ranbee> for a noob
[08:50] <tonyyarusso> gholen: Not unless you're feeling really lucky/adventurous.
[08:50] <elvar> croced it is the same :( 1 hr and 50 min to complete this
[08:51] <crocd> not sure I dont have my laptop up and it has a gentoo distro on. but from memory if you go to your networking option and then select your card you should be able to get to WEP authentication settings
[08:51] <whyso> tonyyarusso:  are defaults really so important? if your installing it for someone anyways then you can just change it
[08:51] <tonyyarusso> Ranbee: Fluxbuntu
[08:51] <Keps> Ranbee: fluxbuntu, but depends on how noob you are :)
[08:51] <tonyyarusso> whyso: Correct.
[08:51] <Samuli^> Ranbee, I think fluxbox, icewm or enlightenment 16 are lighter than xfce4(xubuntu).
[08:51] <Donald1> crocd: yes i'm on ubuntu, how do i access my wireless card?
[08:51] <aoupi> jessid: try in #ubuntu-es they probably have more experience with spanish keyboards :)
[08:51] <Samuli^> Ranbee, from those I would try enlightenment 16
[08:51] <crocd> Fluxbuntu is only on dev alpha status and only for the brave hearted who want to play
[08:51] <jessid> aoupi ok...thanks!
[08:52] <gholen> tonyyarusso, Okej, just wondering?
[08:52] <Ranbee> tonyyarusso: Keps Samuli^  great thanks for the help
[08:52] <elvar> this linux stuff is to slow the i thought :( back to windows for now .it's good think that i had duel boot

[08:52] <crocd> Donald1: go to network admin
[08:52] <jessid> aoupi but, how can I restore the old state of the keyboard, after i did what you told me?
[08:52] <aoupi> jessid: setxkbmap us
[08:52] <Kopiekat> does anyone know why my keyboard doesn't work in ubuntu?
[08:52] <Kopiekat> it does in windows
[08:53] <crocd> Donald1: if your card is detected as wireless you should be able to access the properties or settings to change them
[08:53] <tonyyarusso> whyso: They're important for many purposes, just maybe not yours and mine ;)
[08:53] <x3r0> jessid, what type of KB?

[09:03] <aoupi> UKMatt: #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:04] <jcooke> is there something extra I need to install to be able to use the mount -t smbfs command
[09:06] <tempted> question: i loaded all the appropriate webserver stuff.. and am hosting a webpage.... but through my router and stuff / which is properly configured, i can't load through port 80.... am i forgetting something, is there a firewall setting that i am forgetting?
[09:06] <ericpersson> is there a nongraphical installation for ubuntu?
[09:07] <aoupi> tempted: can you connect to http://localhost ?
[09:07] <defrysk> ericpersson, alternative install you mean ?
[09:07] <tempted> aoupi: yes.
[09:07] <ericpersson> defrysk: is that what its called?
[09:08] <defrysk> yes
[09:08] <jcooke> ericpersson, by the router being properly configured, you mean that port 80 is forwarded to that machine?
[09:08] <jcooke> tempted rather, not ericpersson
[09:08] <ericpersson> hehe
[09:08] <meatballhat9000> anybody know the command line way to stop dhclient?
[09:08] <ericpersson> defrysk: can i get into the alternative install with the normal livecd, or do i need to download something else?
[09:09] <defrysk> ericpersson, get the alternative install cd
[09:09] <tempted> jcooke, as far as i can tell ya, everything is forwarded properly
[09:09] <jcooke> meatballhat9000, killall dhclient3
[09:09] <jcooke> :)
[09:09] <ericpersson> defrysk: damn, thought I would be able to do it with this one. :/ thanks anyway..
[09:09] <gjerde> hei
[09:09] <cr3> anyone happen to have a wifi card with broadcom chipset? can it work with ndiswrapper on dapper?
[09:10] <tempted> kinda fustrating.. i got all my php. sql setup... but can't go outside this dam router... i thought maybe it was an ubuntu internal firewall or something
[09:10] <sco8ie>  I hate to say this but after installing Ubuntu on a 1.8 GHz PC with 256 MB RAM, I found to be slower than Windows 2000. :S it takes me almost 2 hr to download 11 mb files for a site
[09:10] <Jhonny1009> this may sound silly ,but what is the default root password for 6.06?
[09:10] <meatballhat9000> jcooke: that's what I thought... getting "dhclient3: no process killed" :-( sorry....
[09:10] <sco8ie> but in windows much much faster
[09:10] <jcooke> tempted, maybe config your httpd to listen on it's network ip?
[09:10] <tempted> how do i go about dat?
[09:10] <Donald1> how do i set my ubuntu to remember my WEP key?
[09:11] <aoupi> tempted: in the apache conf, find the Listen line make sure it is Listen 80
[09:11] <tempted> k.. let me go look
[09:11] <cr3> sco8ie: was your windows box configured to use a proxy server?
[09:11] <Jhonny1009> what is the default root password?
[09:11] <ericpersson> defrysk: happen to where i can get it?
[09:11] <aoupi> !sudo
[09:11] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:12] <Donald1> how do i set my ubuntu to remember my WEP key?
[09:12] <defrysk> ericpersson, on the downloadpage
[09:12] <FordPrefect> if you must become root then do "sudo su -"
[09:12] <FordPrefect> then type in YOUR password
[09:12] <aoupi> or just sudo -s
[09:12] <ericpersson> defrysk: nothing on there called alternative..
[09:12] <TheGateKeeper> sco8ie: most linux distros are usually faster at downloading stuff than windows, I know my kubuntu system is quicker than windows
[09:12] <jcooke> Donald1, by editing your network scripts in /etc/network/?
[09:12] <defrysk> a sec...
[09:13] <jcooke> Donald1, /etc/network/interfaces I think
[09:13] <Hexidigital> anyone using the app kxdocker that can tell me where the .xml config file should be located?
[09:13] <defrysk> ericpersson, http://releases.ubuntu.com/dapper/ubuntu-6.06.1-alternate-i386.iso
[09:13] <Donald1> jcooke: do i access it from the terminal?
[09:13] <ericpersson> defrysk: found it on the download page? thanks anyway..
[09:14] <defrysk> ericpersson, yes I did
[09:14] <sureshot> Donald1 try download gnetswitch in synaptic package manager it says it will do this for you
[09:14] <Jhonny1009> ubotu, I read it, so does this mean that :root: does not exist in ubuntu?
[09:14] <Donald1> sureshot: thanx
[09:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about I read it, so does this mean that :root: does not exist in ubuntu? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:14] <aoupi> jonassss: ubotu is a bot, but you are correct
[09:14] <sureshot> Donald1 search on wep profile
[09:14] <aoupi> ops
[09:15] <aoupi> Jhonny1009: ubotu is a bot, but you are correct
[09:15] <Jhonny1009> HEHE< BO T:)
[09:15] <Donald1> sureshot: where's the wep profile?
[09:15] <ericpersson> defrysk: i must be blind, thanks for the direct link though..
[09:15] <tempted> jcooke, i do the notice of "apache2: Could not determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using <IP_ADDRESS> for ServerName" when i restart apache
[09:16] <defrysk> ericpersson, select  europe mirror on the downloadpage , continue from there , and you'l see it ;)
[09:16] <redlance> Okay, I got fglrx installed and working.  Had to do it the hard way with the actual ATI drivers and compile the package myself, but that seems to have worked.  Now I want to test it.  I have used glxgears.  What else is there?
[09:16] <jcooke> tempted, I don't remember what that means, but I don't think it's bad
[09:16] <sureshot> Donald1 bring up synapitc pagaga manger click on search and type wep profile as the search criteria and it will give you the lists
[09:16] <aoupi> tempted: find the ServerName line in the apache conf and set it to your domain name (like www.mysite.com) if you don't have one don't bother about it
[09:16] <tempted> me neither... i can just add two lines at the end.. and it goes away... but i feel like it's something else i am forgeting
[09:16] <djmccormick>  i'm trying to install either ubuntu or fedora on this box, it has four SCSI drives that were previously in a RAID array. i'm having trouble with the raid stuff, and don't need it anyway, so now i'm just attempting to install on the first drive. i've got it installed, but can't boot into the installation. all raid arrays in the controller have been deleted, and in the bios everything is just set to "auto" and it doesn't show any drive nam
[09:17] <Donald1> sureshot: i downloaded gnetswitch, it seems to work, it has an autoconnection option
[09:17] <tempted> aoupi, ya, i don't have my domain name setup yet... waiting for my hosting to cancel...
[09:17] <tempted> ya, i figured that
[09:17] <elvar> please someone tell me how to check for errors or stuff :/ to find out why is my computer (ubuntu) slow
[09:17] <elvar> it's so crazy how slow it is
[09:17] <factotum> if I have restarted my system and I have prefetching installed, do I have to run it again after reboot, or is that more automated than just the default scan every 14 days
[09:18] <aoupi> elvar: run top in a terminal to see if one proccess is using alot of resources (like 99% CPU)
[09:18] <RancidLM> hey all kinda a offtopic question i have multiple pop accounts that i check from 2 computers is there a way for both computeres to see the same archived email.. kinda like how a exchange server works?
[09:18] <tempted> now i am just fustrated... :(
[09:18] <brownedwg89> elvar: do you have proprietary drivers installed?
[09:18] <RancidLM> do i have to share my mbox files? would that work?
[09:18] <elvar> i think so :(
[09:18] <sureshot> Donald1 i am glad i hope it works for you.. if you install the kde invironment download the knetswitch as well i think i dont know that much .. as i said i live in the boonies i dont even use the security on my wireless netowork
[09:18] <aoupi> tempted: you still can't connect from outside the router?
[09:19] <factotum> another thing, i just installed unreal tournament and neverwinter nights on my system and Im totaly stoked on how much better they run then on winxp, any other games to recommend?
[09:19] <elvar> i installd inidia
[09:19] <redlance> Welp, I found the one I wanted.  It's fgl_glxgears...I'm getting over 565 FPS
[09:19] <amayera> hi
[09:19] <tempted> nope.... i'm gonna check my router setting again.
[09:19] <loupgaroublond> how do i enable widescreen support in ubuntu? my resolution 1280x800 isn't showing up
[09:19] <amayera> what do I have to do to get my solution for suspend2ram which works for my laptop looked at and maybe included into the main distro?
[09:19] <brownedwg89> elvar: type "glxinfo | grep direct" into console
[09:19] <defrysk> loupgaroublond sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:20] <ZirJoker> spanish
[09:20] <elvar> i installd nvidia-glx and then glx dav that is the stuffs i have installd  ,myabe the glx dav wrong ,.i get yes
[09:20] <Donald1> sureshot: thank you again
[09:20] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, run the defaults exept your screenresolution
[09:20] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, for some reason, that didn't work, and i found all this tablet junk that made gdm crash on startup
[09:20] <Chm0d> how the heck can i get rid of mythtv?  all of it
[09:20] <sureshot> Donald1 if you would have clicked on your network icon went to properties and then the general tab i think it would have let you do that as well just looked at it
[09:21] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, you might want a non command line answer for that too
[09:21] <sureshot> Donald1 you are welcome
[09:21] <tempted> aoupi, jcooke... i got it... one freaking digit was off in my router setup... thanks a bunch tho
[09:21] <elvar> semboy@SigurNafnjesu:~$ glxinfo | grep direct
[09:21] <elvar> direct rendering: Yes
[09:21] <tempted> :)
[09:21] <jcooke> :)
[09:21] <Slaj_R> anyone here proficient with regular expression?
[09:21] <aoupi> tempted: :p
[09:21] <jcooke> Slaj_R, sometimes
[09:21] <elvar> brownedwg89 maybe it was wrong to install , glx dav !!!!???? yes or no please
[09:21] <brownedwg89> elvar: did you try "top"?
[09:22] <tempted> stupid me
[09:22] <jcooke> tempted, I've done worse, to a server hosting 200+ domains ;(
[09:22] <elvar> i am trying now
[09:22] <brownedwg89> elvar: anything using a lot of cpu?
[09:22] <elvar> tempted you aint stupid
[09:22] <Slaj_R> jcooke: I'm making a list in vim, and each line is preceded by a number.  When inserting a new item, I want to do a global search/replace to increment each of the following lines by one.  What's the format for a multiple digit number?
[09:22] <chuckyp> What'd he do?
[09:23] <johso> hiya guys.
[09:23] <tempted> ouch... that is pretty rough... i just gave up on my hosting package.. limited way too much... so i setup the server on my desktop.. it runs most of the time.... now i can hope that i can keep my domain name...
[09:23] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, i just did what you said, selected only my native resolution, and the screen resolution utility tells me all there is, is the standard svga resolutions
[09:23] <jcooke> Slaj_R,  you mean like [0-9] +
[09:23] <elvar> brownedwg89 yeah my root
[09:23] <tempted> how do i make it so my domain name is forwarded to my ip?
[09:23] <whyso> where are programs stored? (example beagle/Log
[09:23] <brownedwg89> elvar: is it xorg?
[09:24] <elvar> aha but it is just at 0.12 and 16.0
[09:24] <elvar> it changes
[09:24] <Slaj_R> jcooke: Yes, except the numbers will range into 3 digits.  I don't want to increment every single digit by one, just the ranking of each line.
[09:24] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, make sure to restart x after
[09:24] <brownedwg89> hmmm
[09:24] <dejavu_> hi
[09:24] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, /etc/init.d/gdm stop then start
[09:24] <elvar> brownedwg89 maybe i installd something wrong ?
[09:24] <loupgaroublond> done, but it's not helping
[09:24] <jsharpe> is there anyway that I can avoid the graphical installation?
[09:24] <defrysk> for example
[09:24] <dejavu_> whats new since dapper was released, I've been away
[09:25] <webfreak> jsharpe: download the alternate install cd
[09:25] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, or do you have anoter method to restart it?
[09:25] <webfreak> +image
[09:25] <ianmacgregor> jsharpe: Use the Alternate CD
[09:25] <brownedwg89> elvar: did you install anything that would use a lot of cpu?
[09:25] <totall_6_7> whyso: they could be in a couple of different places but first i would check your home directory (once you are there hit ctrl-h to view hidden files (program files))
[09:25] <jcooke> Slaj_R, are you going to be using regex in vi to do this? or an external script?
[09:25] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, the rude way is ctrl-alt-backspace
[09:25] <whyso> thanks
[09:25] <elvar> brownedwg89 all i did was setting up my video card today
[09:25] <johso> I give up. I've just reinstalled Ubuntu because I thought that an ethernet card that wasn't installed anymore was conflicting with the one installed (that, and my urge for a clean system). Well, no luck when booting the new installation. I powered off my hub and my router for a few minutes, changed my cable and tried again - no luck. Got any ideas as to what is wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
[09:25] <pettern> Hi. im having problems with Kate. It has worked fine for a long time until i suddenly couldnt write . I dont have that problem in any other programs and changing the encoding in kate doesnt seem to help at all. any suggestions?
[09:26] <elvar> nothing ells brownedwg89
[09:26] <Slaj_R> jcooke: I suppose i could do two commands.  Replace 0-8 with 0-8 plus one, and replace x9 with [x+1] 0.
[09:26] <brownedwg89> elvar: i dont know what it could be
[09:26] <elvar> !nvidia
[09:26] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[09:26] <whyso> wow didnt know all that was hidden there :)
[09:26] <Slaj_R> jcooke:  Can it be done with a single vim command?
[09:26] <totall_6_7> whyso: hehehe
[09:26] <jcooke> Slaj_R, not sure ;( not too familiar with regex in vi
[09:26] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, no dice, it won't work at all, which is strange, cause it even has the right resolution in xorg.conf
[09:26] <Slaj_R> jcooke:  Okay, thanks.  I tried searching the forums at vim.org, but for some reason their site isn't loading.
[09:27] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, set your vid driver to vesa
[09:27] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, then it should work
[09:27] <don-o> how do i fix "Could not open default font fixed" from Xorg?
[09:27] <jcooke> Slaj_R, someone in #perl might have some insight on it
[09:27] <elvar> brownedwg89 maybe i should try to unninstall nvidia-glx-dev
[09:27] <MojoWork> anyone know what package perl's HTML::Entities aka HTML/Entities.pm would be in?
[09:27] <sureshot> hey all my pc is dual booted with xp and dapper 32 bit.. if i attach a sata to usb converter and load edgy how will grub react when the drive is not there and such
[09:27] <don-o> this is immeadiately after an upgrade to Edgy
[09:27] <Zaggynl_> 'Zaggynl ##linux :Cannot send to channel so cannot change nicks'
[09:27] <whyso> totall_6_7: hmmm seems beagled is failing on files with " " in them :( is there a way around this (should i make a script that replaces " " with "_"?
[09:27] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, will that give me gfx acceleration from my gma950 chip?
[09:27] <Zaggynl_> right, I can't send to the channel :/
[09:27] <whyso> id rather not have to
[09:27] <elvar> brownedwg89 couse i didnt know why i did this :(
[09:27] <elvar> brownedwg89 is it ok ?
[09:28] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, as you probably know..... nope no exel whatsoever
[09:28] <brownedwg89> elvar: you shouldnt need it, so go ahead
[09:28] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, that's not a fair answer
[09:28] <MojoWork> nm, found it using web packages search
[09:28] <elvar> brownedwg89 linux-restricted-modules-amd64-kb i dont have this package :S
[09:28] <defrysk> vesa is a generic drive
[09:28] <MojoWork> man i wish you could search package contents locally
[09:28] <totall_6_7> whyso: no clue, maybe someone else can answer that
[09:29] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, unfortunately i have no further resolution for your problem :(
[09:29] <brownedwg89> elvar: i dont know if you need that, try it if you want
[09:29] <whyso> totall_6_7: ah ok, thanks anyways!
[09:29] <whyso> does anyone know how to get beagle to work in directories with " "?
[09:29] <sureshot> hey all my pc is dual booted with xp and dapper 32 bit.. if i attach a sata to usb converter and load edgy how will grub react when the drive is not there and such
[09:29] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, oh well, it would be fair if this was another distro, just it seems like ubuntu shouldhave a better answer for that
[09:29] <TheGateKeeper> MojoWork: with apt-get cache ??
[09:29] <MojoWork> TheGateKeeper: that doesn't search contents
[09:29] <MojoWork> i.e. files in the package
[09:30] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, an other person might now the answer
[09:30] <MojoWork> and dpkg can only search them for installed packages of course
[09:30] <defrysk> loupgaroublond, ask again later
[09:30] <defrysk> maybe someone else can help you
[09:30] <webfreak> http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[09:30] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, i won't have internet later :(
[09:30] <webfreak> you can search the contents of all packages there
[09:30] <defrysk> my bad :(
[09:30] <will> hi all
[09:31] <loupgaroublond> defrysk, only if you want to accept blame for my lack of internet :P
[09:31] <will> im havin some trouble recompiling the kernel
[09:31] <MojoWork> webfreak: yeah that's how i found it. i wish you could do that locally
[09:31] <defrysk> lol loupgaroublond
[09:31] <will> 2 secs...
[09:31] <MojoWork> webfreak: w/o searching a cd of packages (assuming you can do it that way even)
[09:31] <tomaczec> hi
[09:31] <webfreak> MojoWork: sorry, i just scrolled up and saw you say that
[09:31] <ZiRo> the add user interface surely uses the terminal "adduser" right?
[09:32] <ZiRo> (it acts like a front end to the terminal based application)
[09:32] <MojoWork> meanwhile there's probably and apt/dpkg config option that lets you do that, heh
[09:32] <MojoWork> like download the entire package header
[09:32] <MojoWork> i probably just don't know it
[09:32] <LogicalDash> I want to shrink my Windows partition to make room for Ubuntu. What's some software I can use to do that without damaging Windows?
[09:33] <MojoWork> LogicalDash: OSS or pay?
[09:33] <will> im having trouble recompiling the kernel, i followed the instructions on: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=206992 (except the module patching bit) and managed to create the image and add it to grub, but when i select to load it on startup the screen just goes blank :(
[09:33] <whyso> how do i completely wipe a process? i uninstalled beagle with synaptic, and reinstalled, but it kept the old configurations and stuff
[09:33] <MojoWork> LogicalDash: cus partition magic is probably the best, but it costs money
[09:33] <whyso> package* not process
[09:33] <LogicalDash> MojoWork: I'd prefer OSS on principle
[09:33] <meatballhat9000> LogicalDash: the PerfectDisk software by Raxco has a 30-day trial.. :-)
[09:33] <MojoWork> LogicalDash: parted can do it, but not for NTFS i don't think
[09:33] <Samuli^> LogicalDash, partition manager. I wouldn't trust the ones for linux
[09:33] <meatballhat9000> LogicalDash: that's what I used - had to do 4 passes, but it did the job
[09:33] <defrysk> partition magic
[09:33] <jsharpe> is there anyway around hard drive I/O errors? -- shoudln't formatting create the filesystem around those bad sectors?
[09:33] <MojoWork> LogicalDash: often you drive comes with a CD that has a util on it that can do it
[09:33] <TheGateKeeper> MojoWork: http://linuxreviews.org/man/dpkg-deb/  <-- any use?
[09:33] <sureshot> hey all my pc is dual booted with xp and dapper 32 bit.. if i attach a sata to usb converter and load edgy how will grub react when the drive is not there and such
[09:33] <LogicalDash> meatballhat9000, what do you mean "passes"?
[09:34] <elvar> brownedwg89 i have many linux-restrickted-models  installd coudl it be the porblem?
[09:34] <brownedwg89> elvar: i dont know
[09:34] <whyso> how do you totally uninstall a package (including its configurations)
[09:34] <meatballhat9000> LogicalDash: sorry - I defragged four times to get everything smashed up to the front of the disk
[09:34] <brownedwg89> elvar: btw are you fully upgraded?
[09:34] <mikeconcepts> Need help: folks, I've spent the better part of a day trying to figure out how to create a launcher on the desktop to simply run a script to run vncviewer <IP_ADDRESS>
[09:35] <elvar> brownedwg89 i have not upgraded couse it is so slow :(
[09:35] <elvar> it will take me many hrs
[09:35] <mikeconcepts> any links to a howto?
[09:35] <brownedwg89> elvar: so... the internets slow?
[09:35] <MojoWork> TheGateKeeper: nah, that packs and unpacks .deb files
[09:35] <defrysk> whyso, apt-get --purge
[09:35] <elvar> yeah
[09:35] <defrysk> whyso, also read man apt-get
[09:35] <elvar> but the internet is just fine
[09:35] <macographer> does anyone know what i need to do to get imagemagick working with PDFs?
[09:35] <MojoWork> TheGateKeeper: meh. nevermind. i've got bigger fish to fry ;) thanks though
[09:35] <graveson> is there a way to convert a RPM file to .deb. Lacie just announced lightscriber software that is supported in Ubuntu and provided a RPM file :( for download
[09:35] <elvar> nothing wrong with the internat
[09:36] <whyso> thanks
[09:36] <MojoWork> l8rz. thanks
[09:36] <mikeconcepts> link to a good tutorial to launch script from a launcher?
[09:36] <defrysk> graveson alien blah.rpm
[09:36] <defrysk> graveson, use with caution
[09:36] <meatballhat9000> mikeconcepts: not to detract from what you're doing, but have you tried gnomeRDP?
[09:36] <will> has anyone here had problems getting the Marvell Yukon network card to run in ubuntu 6.06?
[09:37] <will> or anyone who knows a fix
[09:37] <elvar> brownedwg89 is it ok to take a picture of my screen so i can show you .what i have installd in my synaptic package manager
[09:37] <elvar> ?
[09:37] <LimonJalisciense> i installed my printer hp but i cant make it print over the network
[09:37] <brownedwg89> elvar: well, try a "sudo apt-get update | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[09:37] <will> ive been forced to use windows on my laptop as the internet keeps on cutting out
[09:37] <mikeconcepts> meatballhat9000, yes, and don't like it because I have a dual monitor on the XP machine, and only vnc seems to deal with that properly
[09:37] <graveson> defrysk: can this command screw up other things or only the file i work on ?
[09:37] <brownedwg89> sure
[09:37] <LimonJalisciense> i did a thousand things
[09:37] <defrysk> graveson, it purger the package and config files
[09:37] <defrysk> purges*
[09:38] <hkais> hi
[09:38] <totall_6_7> mikeconcepts: do you know the command line in creating a launcher??
[09:38] <meatballhat9000> mikeconcepts: gotcha - that'd be an issue ;-)
[09:38] <baxter_kylie_> Hi. Having an issue with alternate cd installation erroring out. It could be one of a few points of failure that I've identified. Can anyone assist me in figuring out which pof is to blame?
[09:38] <graveson> defrysk: thanks but that sounds too risky
[09:38] <defrysk> graveson, risky , how ?
[09:39] <LimonJalisciense> ;(
[09:39] <totall_6_7> mikeconcepts: the command is: vncviewer address
[09:39] <graveson> defrysk: purges config files ? am i wrong in assuming the system config files ?
[09:39] <will> has anyone here ever recompiled the ubuntu kernel who can point me to a how to that definitely works?
[09:39] <totall_6_7> mikeconcepts: it worked for me
[09:39] <tecta> how do i add a module to autoload on boot?
[09:39] <defrysk> graveson, no only the configfiles of the package involved
[09:39] <defrysk> nothing more
[09:39] <korhalf> hey
[09:39] <baxter_kylie_> tecta: modprobe
[09:40] <korhalf> GDM is screwing up when i try to load XGL
[09:40] <korhalf> what gives
[09:40] <amayera> hi
[09:40] <tecta> baxter_kylie, autolmatically on boot
[09:40] <graveson> defrysk: ok then it is worth a try
[09:40] <TheGateKeeper> baxter_kylie_: did you try the cd self-test ?
[09:40] <amayera> anybody else here experiencing problems using dm-crypt and the new usplash in edgy?
[09:40] <defrysk> graveson, its pretty safe
[09:40] <will> noone here has ever recompiled the kernel?
[09:40] <baxter_kylie_> TheGateKeeper: There's a self-test? I remember the memory test...
[09:40] <defrysk> will, ne need to
[09:40] <elvar> brownedwg86 sudo apt-get update | sudo apt-get dist-upgrade i did this and then asks about pass and i enter it and then it says this package will be installd and stuff ,and then asks me about wanna continue? i did "y " and then asks me about my password wierd :S?
[09:41] <etienne_> anyone uses dia here?
[09:41] <zOrK> What's the name of those screen which I saw on the startup?
[09:41] <zOrK> screensplash?
[09:41] <elvar> brownedwg86 and then i entered it  ,.and then it says abort :/
[09:41] <defrysk> elvar, do sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrad
[09:41] <brownedwg89> elvar: what does it do after you say yes?
[09:41] <zOrK> it was something like that, I can't remember now.
[09:41] <defrysk> elvar, do sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:41] <defrysk> sorry
[09:41] <mikeconcepts> totall_6_7, yes, my script has #!/bin/bash
[09:41] <mikeconcepts> vncviewer <IP_ADDRESS> and the launcher I created has the correct path to the script, and I told the launcher to run in a terminal
[09:41] <TheGateKeeper> baxter_kylie_: may be my failing memory, I know there is one on the live & I thought there was also one on the alternate cd, I may have got it wrong
[09:42] <UdP> New Ubuntu User needs a bit of help
[09:42] <UdP> pleeeeeeeeease
[09:42] <defrysk> !ask
[09:42] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:42] <UdP> OK - basically
[09:42] <korhalf> GDM Crashing on XGL set up, i followed the guide exactly on the ubuntu wiki, NEED HELP
[09:42] <baxter_kylie_> TheGateKeeper: Not at that pc right now but I'll definately look it up. Alternately could I md5 the disc after creation? (and if so ... how? I've admittedly never used checksums)
[09:43] <UdP> ive been a complete tool - installed ubuntu a while back
[09:43] <tomaczec> elvar: the single pipe (|) wasn't this wrong? didnt you mean '||'?
[09:43] <elvar> brownedwg86 this will take for ever :(
[09:43] <UdP> forgot my username and password
[09:43] <will> well my problem is that the drivers my network card is using are faulty and I want to change them, I do hav the patch that I would normally apply to a recompile, how do I add this in. Also I think the driver i need is already included but how do i change which one the network card uses
[09:43] <brownedwg89> elvar: it takes a while...
[09:43] <UdP> how do i reinstall = not booting from cd
[09:43] <mikeconcepts> totall_6_7, tried telling the gnome-terminal to stay open after command runs, no help
[09:43] <will> are using are^
[09:43] <UdP> or is there a defualt username and password
[09:43] <baxter_kylie_> korhalf: first... which guide, please post the link.
[09:43] <will> because I think my network card is trying to use newer drivers which according to the net arent working with this card
[09:44] <elvar> brownedwg86 do you think my computer will not slow agein?
[09:44] <elvar> brownedwg86 do you know why my computer slows?
[09:44] <brownedwg89> elvar: hopefully
[09:44] <TheGateKeeper> baxter_kylie_: you can before, but never heard of doing it after, you could also use badblocks to make sure that you hdd is ok
[09:44] <brownedwg89> elvar: nope
[09:44] <baxter_kylie_> theGateKeeper: Badblocks??? what is this? :)
[09:44] <LogicalDash> OK, I'm back
[09:45] <totall_6_7> mikeconcepts: First why do you want it to run in terminal? I just put the command in, selected run as application, and it runs
