[03:28] <izanbardprince> is it just anywhere they happen to be at that point?
[03:28] <unop> BrandonS, use the gnome-system-monitor and look under processes or at a terminal.  ps -u $USER | grep firefox
[03:28] <izanbardprince> or is there some QA level?
[03:28] <andrew232123> i have nvidia high definition audio card, laptop
[03:29] <jmarsden> izanbardprince: Alpha => You risk your neck.  Beta => You risk maybe just your right arm.    Betas are betas.  Alphas are not fit for general consumption.  Betas are better.
[03:29] <drut> anyone know how to gain full access to everything?
[03:29] <unop> izanbardprince, ask about this in #ubuntu-devel
[03:29] <unop> !sudo | drut
[03:29] <izanbardprince> how do you get back to your user account after invoking sudo -i?
[03:30] <unop> izanbardprince, exit
[03:30] <untraceable> i just tried to install an atheros 5008 mini pci-e on compaq  presario f768 and wont boot, says 104 unsupported wireless netword device.. wat do i need to do to fix this
[03:30] <drut> p
[03:30] <Ricardo_0617> can I install mac os software in linux?
[03:31] <izanbardprince> uhhhhm, no
[03:31] <drut> unop, what extension should I put onto sudo?
[03:31] <dr_Willis> Ricardo_0617,  os-x is not linux.. so no.
[03:31] <Ricardo_0617> but they are cousins, right?
[03:31] <shane> hello
[03:31] <unop> Ricardo_0617, not really
[03:32] <unop> drut, what are you trying to do?
[03:32] <dr_Willis> Ricardo_0617,  os-x is sort of based on 'bsd' ibelive.  not linux.
[03:32] <Ricardo_0617> safari is based in konqueror
[03:32] <Ricardo_0617> right?
[03:32] <LetsGo67> How do I enable 256MB of graphics RAM for my gma x3100 in Ubuntu?
[03:32] <drut> I am trying to create a folder to act as a temp internet files
[03:32] <wols_> Ricardo_0617: no khtml
[03:32] <wols_> LetsGo67: in BIOS
[03:33] <raichlea> hi all: I've been having troubles getting java based games to play in FF on HH.  I'm using: Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_06-b02  is there a better alternative?
[03:33] <unop> drut, why do that .. your browser already uses it's cache and /tmp for that
[03:33] <LetsGo67> Thanks, wols_
[03:33] <drut> I am trying to play a game and it says it can'tle find the temp internet fi
[03:34] <ronin12345> I'm setting up my kernel and I have a Ati 690g motherboard what should I select for ATI sata support?
[03:34] <Sergeant_Pony> does anyone know how to adjust the tracker so it doesn't take up alot of room on my hd?
[03:34] <shoeunited> Ok, cheese turns on the webcam, when I try to modprobe /dev/video0  it says FATAL: Module /dev/video0 not found.     Anyway to manually turn on this webcam on this laptop to so it works like in cheese?
[03:35] <unop> drut, hmm, what game is this?
[03:35] <drut> its called runescape, ill tell you exactly what it says
[03:35] <shoeunited> runescape = ;_;
[03:35] <drut> It says "Runescape was unable to find a suitable place to store its temporary files."
[03:36] <Matthew> So I run Ubuntu only--I'm trying to dual boot with xp, after setting a partition for the install, I put the xp disc in and started the computer. I get this error: "Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed on your computer"
[03:37] <drut> Anyone one want to here what really stupid thing I did?
[03:37] <raichlea> Matthew, it probably doesn't recognize the drive cause it's formatted for ubuntu
[03:37]  * prince_jammys guesses permissions
[03:37] <raichlea> Matthew, you probably need to use gparted off the livecd and create an NTFS partition or a blank one
[03:37] <izanbardprince> drut: Run runescape as an unsigned applet
[03:38] <izanbardprince> IcedTea hates the signed applet
[03:38] <Matthew> raichlea, I used the livecd partion editor and set aside 5.5 gigs
[03:38] <drut> I did
[03:38] <drut> unop: i did
[03:38] <Pelo> sorry for the part
[03:38] <raichlea> Matthew, just be careful because I *think* that the XP bootloader will take over.  Usually you have to install Windows first
[03:38] <raichlea> Matthew, what did you format it as?
[03:38] <Flannel> !grub | Matthew
[03:38] <izanbardprince> raichlea: Just reinstall GRUB
[03:38] <izanbardprince> :P
[03:38] <Flannel> Matthew: you'll need to use the first link there to reinstall GRUB after windows eats it.
[03:38] <izanbardprince> it's not all that hard
[03:39] <izanbardprince> SuperGRUB disk works well
[03:39] <raichlea> izanbardprince, it's Matthew that needs the help. I was just pointing out what would happen
[03:39] <Matthew> raichlea, and flannel, I have a list of instructions on how to fix the boot loader.
[03:39] <piranah> anyone here have step by step directions for using a nvidia 9600 GT card with current distro if Ubuntu ?
[03:39] <izanbardprince> Windows clobbers GRUB or LILO
[03:39] <izanbardprince> always has
[03:39] <izanbardprince> probably always will
[03:39] <Matthew> Flannel and Raichlea, my only problem is that setup "can't find any hdd installed on my computer"
[03:40] <raichlea> Matthew, what did you format that 5.5 partition as?
[03:40] <jsheedy> Hello, looking for some more advice with load ubuntu.  I have tried new dvd/cd-rom(3), different memory, diff scsi card, new video card, just went IDE, disabled everything in CMOS.  still can not get ubuntu to load
[03:40] <neon> is there any way to load coretemp module when using lm_sensors usin <IP_ADDRESS> kernel i have read that it won't  work cause of an outdated modeule any ideas?
[03:40] <jsheedy>  I have loaded windows XP on both IDE and scsi drives just for testing, and it loaded without issue, I am just lost
[03:40] <shane> I have an HFS+ partition I am sharing between mac osx and my ubuntu partition i made a user with the same UID as my mac user account and i was able to share data between os's How can I mount a drive as a specific UID
[03:41] <jsheedy> I have tried 8.04.1, 710, 606, all give a kernel fault right have hitting the install option.
[03:41] <unop> drut, seems like you have to create a directory named /rscache (which is poor design), anyway  try this command.   sudo mkdir /rscache; sudo chown $USER.$USER /rscache
[03:41] <bobertdos> piranah: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:41] <Matthew> raichlea...i think it's currently "unknown" or sda1, I think it's unknown (or unused) though
[03:41] <drut> unop, thanks, ill tell you what happens
[03:41] <izanbardprince> Matthew: What kind of hard drive? EIDE, SATA? Does it use RAID?
[03:41] <raichlea> try formatting it to FAT32 or NTFS and see if that helps.
[03:42] <izanbardprince> RAID controllers can be very troublesome
[03:42] <Matthew> izanbardprince...I think it's sata, how can i find out for sure
[03:42] <izanbardprince> setting it to not use RAID usually fixes that
[03:42] <raichlea> Matthew, XP setup will not see SATA natively
[03:42] <unop> drut, actually, have a read here.   https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+question/39307
[03:42] <izanbardprince> XP will see SATA
[03:42] <izanbardprince> but it has no RAID drivers
[03:42] <piranah> only if Sp1 is loaded
[03:42] <raichlea> izanbardprince, not usually
[03:42] <Matthew> raichlea, OK thank you i will keep that in mind...how can I tell what kind of harddrive I have.
[03:42] <piranah> er sp2
[03:42] <izanbardprince> so disable RAID, install XP
[03:42] <hhp2k> Hey guys, I'm setting up Evolution mail to get mail from work on an IMAP server, but it's unbelievably slow.. is there a better email client to use?
[03:42] <izanbardprince> then get your driver and enable RAID
[03:43] <wols_> Matthew: your XP install problems are ot here
[03:43] <wols_> !ot | Matthew
[03:43] <neon> or you can slipstream the driver using nlite which is easier
[03:43] <raichlea> izanbardprince, Matthew, generally to install XP on a SATA drive you need to load the drivers via floppy drive or slipstream using nlite.
[03:43] <piranah> nvidia 9600 GT + current distro of Ubuntu any tips guides or good links ?
[03:44] <wols_> that's all nice but the wrong channel
[03:44] <shane> is there a way to change the UID of a user without any issues
[03:44] <wols_> shane: why?
[03:44] <bobertdos> hhp2k: I'm not sure the client would actually be your problem. Nonetheless, I'll recommend Mozilla-Thunderbird. It's available in the repos.
[03:44] <izanbardprince> Nlite is awesome
[03:44] <Matthew> if I just want to fresh install xp, then resize and fresh install ubuntu. what would you suggest? wipe the whole drive?
[03:44] <wols_> piranah: just install the nvidia drivers
[03:44] <izanbardprince> slipstream everything and never worry about it again
[03:44] <izanbardprince> :P
[03:44] <izanbardprince> including your serial number
[03:44] <neon> wols_: my 9600 is workig out of the box
[03:44] <harpreet> IndyGunFreak: i found @linuxmail.org free
[03:44] <shane> exit
[03:45] <wols_> neon: with nv drives
[03:45] <wols_> *drivers
[03:45] <raichlea> Matthew, you are going to run into the exact same problem.  might as well leave your ubuntu partition as is and just slipstream.  I know it's OT but I will see if I can find the link for you on how to do it.  I just did it recently
[03:45] <neon> piranah: my is 9600 is working out of the box, wols sorry clcik on the wrong nick
[03:45] <michael_m> can someone help me with cpu frequency monitor problem?
[03:45] <hhp2k> bobertdos: If it's not the email client, then it's my server.. seems to behave that way no matter what client it's on. Sigh.
[03:45] <piranah> wols_: driver from nvidia complains about kernal version. Loaded driver from package manager and it does not seem to enable. Checked admin hardware drivers and says no proprietary drivers in use
[03:45] <Matthew> raichlea, ok thank you, since I don't really know what nlite or slipstream do or mean
[03:45] <Justinlol> hello
[03:46] <bobertdos> piranah: Did you look over the wiki entry? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[03:46] <piranah> neon: clean install seems to be using a generic VGA driver, I cant enable  any of the effects or change resolution above 1280x1024
[03:46] <bobertdos> Justinlol: May we help you?
[03:46] <Justinlol> no
[03:46] <Matthew> to save trouble: can anyone suggest a good mp3 player that works easily in Hardy?
[03:47] <__yy> I have a fairly large text file and a list of line numbers which I would like to extract. Is there a utility I can use to do this in one pass over the file?
[03:47] <raichlea> Matthew, http://icrontic.com/articles/slipstreaming_windows_easy
[03:47] <Bosco> i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working
[03:48] <Bosco> \
[03:48] <bobertdos> Matthew: Amarok and Banshee are the heavy hitters when it comes to music.
[03:48] <Matthew> thanks, raichlea, bobertdos: I mean hardware (ipod, zune etc.)
[03:48] <Bosco> i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working
[03:49] <Justinlol> does any 1 here play game on computer?
[03:49] <shoeunited> once in a while, but nothing that stresses my system.
[03:49] <Justinlol> what do u play?
[03:49] <decay> whats the difference between range and xrange
[03:49] <bobertdos> Matthew: Gtk-Pod has improved over the years. Banshee and Amarok work with some iPods and other players too. You'll probably want to do some research if you're planning a purchase.
[03:49] <shoeunited> Alpha Centaur, UT2004
[03:49] <wols_> Justinlol: do you have a ubuntu related question?
[03:50] <shoeunited> Wormux
[03:50] <raichlea> I'm going to ask my question again, can anyone recommend a good java plugin for playing games on, pogo and yahoo?  I was using Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_06-b02 and it wouldn't launch at all, I just switched to: GCJ Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea) and now I get to the game room but it crashes if I try to load a game.
[03:50] <bobertdos> decay: Is this about Python? If so, you're somewhat off-topic.
[03:50] <Pelo> later dudes
[03:50] <wols_> !ot | Justinlol
[03:50] <Evilsboytoy> i just ran todays 26 updates, the computer said it needed a reboot (why) now it hangs at the 'Starting Up ... " screen. what happened, and how do i fix it ?
[03:50] <decay> bobertdos: yea, hehe. wrong channel
[03:50] <wols_> Evilsboytoy: new kernel most likely
[03:51] <Matthew> Yes, I'm looking to get a new media player. I only have Hardy at the moment (no Windows). I would like to know which device (ipod, zune, sansa etc.) works best with Ubuntu
[03:51] <Evilsboytoy> wols_ - great, now i have to reinstall the software cause it's not booting now
[03:51] <decay> But, does anyone know why Terminal won't stay as a launcher in awn?
[03:51] <raichlea> Matthew, I've head the ipod + amarok work
[03:51] <wols_> Evilsboytoy: you have a livecd. use it
[03:51] <Evilsboytoy> wols_ to do what ?
[03:51] <Chaotic_Descent> why does VLC not play audio in videos that MPlayer can play just fine? If I could figure out how to load DVDs with MPlayer, I wouldn't mind.
[03:51] <Matthew> raichlea, thank you...I'd like to avoid the ipod though.
[03:52] <raichlea> Matthew, well I would certainly recommend against the zune... the rest are just simply over glorified usb sticks and should work just fine
[03:52] <hhp2k> Hey everyone, I just installed Ubuntu on my desktop and I have a SoundBlaster 5.1 Surround sound card, with 5.1 surround hooked up to it. When the speakers are on, they make a shitload of white noise, when they should be silent. Anyone know why this is happening?
[03:52] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: did you try experimenting with the different audio output settings in VLC yet to dtermine if you can get audio going ?
[03:53] <Matthew> raichlea, ha okay thank you.
[03:53] <michael__> hi, i have a question on my machine, i have a maxtor 80G  pata harddisk, but why it is used as sda(scsi device) on my computer.
[03:53] <bobertdos> raichlea: Is it possible you just didn't have the Sun plugin properly linked before? I've helped a number of people with this. Maybe I could help you with that.
[03:53] <wols_> michael__: all hdds are nod sda and using the scsi layer
[03:53] <raichlea> bobertdos, it's possible...  what I can use to test?
[03:53] <Evilsboytoy> srsly, what do i do to get my ubuntu hardy to boot now that todays updates crashed it ??
[03:53] <wols_> raichlea: about:plugins
[03:53] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: I'm not familiar with VLC. where are these audio output settings? I don't see any under audio's advanced settings... steam output? no...
[03:54] <michael__> but times ago, i use it as hda, this is the new driver?
[03:54] <raichlea> well I see GCJ Web Browser Plugin (using IcedTea)  there now.  what info do you need?
[03:54] <wols_> michael__: yes it's a new driver
[03:54] <bobertdos> michael__: sda doesn't mean SATA, it means "storage device A"
[03:54] <wols_> raichlea: wrong plugin.
[03:54] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: oh. the arrow expands subsections. I remember seeing that before.
[03:54] <Evilsboytoy> don't use it it will crash yo system
[03:54] <Evilsboytoy> fucking ubuntu
[03:54] <michael_m> cpu frequency problem, can someone help?
[03:54] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: yes, try changing the output modules in there
[03:54] <raichlea> wols_, prior to this I had the standard java one there and it didn't work
[03:55] <michael__> and an other question, i test it in windows, result at 17mb/s, but i use hdparm in linux, it show me 57ms/s
[03:55] <bobertdos> !ohmy > Evilsboytoy
[03:55] <raichlea> wols, bobertdos, which would you recommend?
[03:55] <Justinlol> how do u create ne room?
[03:55] <michael__> that is the same as my matox 250G sata harddisk.
[03:55] <bobertdos> raichlea: Sun, as long as it's properly linked :)
[03:55] <drut> unop, thanks for the link, I read it and fixed the problem
[03:56] <meatrun> Hello i don't mean to bother, but could someone suggest a channel that a very new user could ask a question as to why his sound wouldn't work?
[03:56] <Chaotic_Descent> arg. VLC freezes every time I try to stop it playing... so every time I test it it takes half a minute for it to respond.
[03:56] <raichlea> bobertdos, ok, I will remove iced tea now and teset
[03:56] <Vock> Hey, i'm having some problems with installing Ubuntu, I'm on the Live CD right now, was wondering if someone could pm me n help me out a bit?
[03:56] <Justinlol> how do u make a new room?
[03:56] <bobertdos> raichlea: Are you using the built-in Firefox 3 or Mozilla's version?
[03:56] <riegersn> anyone using the new banshee 1.0 ?
[03:56] <dr_Willis> Justinlol,  you mean    /join #myOwnpersonalroom
[03:56] <Chaotic_Descent> any way to guess which audio output setting is likely to work?
[03:56] <Justinlol> yes ty
[03:56] <michael_m> meatrun: what distro are u using and what is ur sound card?
[03:57] <raichlea> I'm not sure... I *think* it was installed with Ubuntu
[03:57] <michael__> wols: do you know why i get the same result of my maxtor 80G pata harddsik and my maxtor 250 sata harddisk.
[03:57] <Justinlol> dr_Willis yes thank you
[03:57] <riegersn> banshee only allowing me to add 1 podcast, anyone heard of this issue?
[03:57] <raichlea> bobertdos, I did a clean install
[03:57] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: what is it set to right now (that's not working) ?
[03:57] <raichlea> Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008061015 Firefox/3.0
[03:57] <Justinlol>  /join #myOwnpersonalroom
[03:57] <Justinlol> right
[03:57] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: default.
[03:57] <michael__> wols: they are both 57mb/s
[03:57] <Bosco> i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working
[03:57] <dr_Willis> Justinlol,  you may want to read up on irc basics. :) technically they care called Channels. and they get auto created at join, if non-existant. Unless the server has the channels registered. then   Its a littel differently
[03:58] <glitsj16> Caotic_Descent: try ALSA and refresh the list of devices
[03:58] <Vock> I have just used Partion editor to make all the partitions I want before installing Ubuntu, but when I try to install it from the LiveCD and go manual, i'm wondering how to pick the one I want to be the root drive
[03:58] <michael__> wols: and i test it in windows, the 80G disk just have a 17mb/s speed.
[03:58] <meatrun> I'm not sure of what distro mean :-$ but here is the info about the card i have 03:04.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB X-Fi
[03:58] <meatrun> 	Subsystem: Creative Labs X-Fi XtremeMusic
[03:58] <meatrun> 	Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 11
[03:58] <meatrun> 	I/O ports at bce0 [size=32]
[03:58] <meatrun> 	Memory at dac00000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=2M]
[03:58] <FloodBot2> meatrun: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:58] <bobertdos> raichlea: oh okay..........So you installed sun-java6-plugin, initially?
[03:58] <meatrun> 	Memory at d4000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64M]
[03:58] <meatrun> 	Capabilities: <access denied>
[03:58] <michael__> wols: the 250G  sata disk have 68mb/s
[03:58] <raichlea> bobertdos, yes, initially and then removed it.  I just reinstalled it now
[03:59] <meatrun> sorry
[03:59] <Chaotic_Descent> It's strange. VLC was working fine before. maybe it's because I reinstalled the restricted driver package or whatever it was that allowed me to play DVDs and MP3s and such.
[03:59] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: typo in your nick sorry, try ALSA and refresh the list of devices to see if you can spot your sound card
[03:59] <michael__> anyone here know what is this command (hdparm -tT) really meant?
[03:59] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: yeah. tried ALSA with both the options in the refreshed list that it gave me. no luck.
[03:59] <dr_Willis> Justinlol,  seriously man. read up on the irc client fetures, dont just start trying them out on people. :) some people find the dcc chat stuff rude. :P
[03:59] <crashsystems> @michael that command tests the performance for the HD. see the man entry for more.
[03:59] <bobertdos> raichlea: So, if you type about:plugins into Firefox, is Java listed?
[04:00] <raichlea> bobertdos, now I have Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_06-b02
[04:00] <raichlea>     File name: libjavaplugin_oji.so
[04:00] <raichlea>     Java(TM) Plug-in 1.6.0_06 installed and showing in about:plugins.  It was there before and didn't work, but let me test again
[04:00] <Justinlol> oh
[04:00] <raichlea> sorry
[04:00] <Justinlol> ok
[04:00] <michael__> crashsystems: i have a question about that. seemly, it cant give me a true result.
[04:00] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: what exactly did you install sound related ? any ideas ?
[04:00] <crashsystems> @michael__ what do you mean?
[04:01] <madfrancis> I need some serious assistance. I am having a lot of conflictions with my video card. I had everything running fine until I started trying to get dual displays to work in ubuntu. Now it thinks it's running dual so I can only see half of the screen and yet my 2nd display doesn't isn't showing shit.
[04:01] <smit> what program can i download to burn an iso image to a dvd
[04:01] <Bosco> i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working
[04:01] <raichlea> bobertdos, trying to run it now and it's just greying out and freezing up like it used to..
[04:01] <dr_Willis> smit,  you mean under linux/ubuntu? there should be some allready installed..
[04:01] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: uh... some music players. and reinstalled some restricted package... arg. you want the name?
[04:01] <michael__> crashsystems: as i said.  i have two disk. one maxtor 80G pata, i buy it at 2004, other 250 sata, i buy it 2007.
[04:01] <smit> dr_willis:  how do i access
[04:02] <jtaji> smit: it's built in to gnome, just right click the .iso and burn to disk...
[04:02] <michael_m> meatrun: u might want to check out the beta driver http://opensource.creative.com/soundcard.html
[04:02] <michael__> crashsystems: i use the command to test both. but it showed me almost same result.
[04:02] <bobertdos> raichlea: If you go into about:config and set plugin.expose_fullpath to true, what path is java listed as in about:plugins?
[04:02] <crashsystems> @michael__ that is strange
[04:02] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: ubuntu-restricted-extras I think it the one I reinstalled. but VLC was working when it was installed. I'm pretty sure it's just since I REinstalled it (after I had some other problem)
[04:02] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: i use pulseaudio and after installing vlc-plugin-pulse i get nice audio with the default settings in VLC .. are you runningpulseaudio ?
[04:03] <michael__> crashsystems: yes, it showed me both 57mb/s
[04:03] <meatrun> thank you Michael_m i will try it out
[04:03] <crashsystems> @michael__ does that vary any from one test to another?
[04:03] <raichlea> bobertdos, File name: /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-<IP_ADDRESS>/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
[04:04] <bobertdos> raichlea: alright, now in the terminal, what is the output of: sudo update-java-alternatives -l?
[04:04] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: thanks, that might have changed your default sound server settings, not to familiar with that package to be sure though sorry
[04:04] <michael_m> cpu frequency problem can someone help?
[04:04] <raichlea> java-6-openjdk 1061 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk
[04:04] <raichlea> java-6-sun 63 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
[04:04] <michael__> crashsystems: yes, a little. the 250 sata one. result in 56mb/s. the 80 pata old one, result in 57mb/s. a little quick??
[04:05] <theRealBall> howdy
[04:05] <smit> why cant i view my external hdd?
[04:05] <crashsystems> @michael__ I'd think so. However, if the old one is a little faster than expected, I'd certainly not complain.
[04:05] <michael__> crashsystems: but if i test both in windows. the 250 one. result in 58mb/s. the 80 pata, result in 17mb/s
[04:05] <crashsystems> @michael__ I'm stuck with IDE on my desktop box :(
[04:06] <Guest3043> Does Ubuntu have network traffic monitor(packet sniffer) installed by default
[04:06] <ManualOverDozer> sure does
[04:06] <crashsystems> @michael__ what file system are you using in linux?
[04:06] <smit> why cant i view my external hdd?
[04:06] <michael__> crashsystems: ext3
[04:06] <ManualOverDozer> look in repositpry for things like that
[04:06] <Guest3043> What is the name of this monitor?
[04:06] <otg> hello
[04:06] <drut> hi, otg
[04:07] <smit> WHY CANT I VIEW MY EXTERNAL HDD
[04:07] <bobertdos> raichlea: try this: sudo update-java-alternatives -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun
[04:07] <crashsystems> @michael__ I assume that in windows you have ntfs?
[04:07] <rhrh> hello
[04:07] <ManualOverDozer> maybe you need to mount the drive to see it
[04:07] <otg> hrrlo

[04:07] <ManualOverDozer> ntfs can be read by both windows and linux
[04:07] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: "running" pulseaudio? I don't know. I didn't install anything with that name. the thing is, I reinstalled VLC, and I thought that would fix it. I mean, if reinstalling the ubuntu-restricted-extras broke it, why would reinstalling it fix it now? :S I can't figure out how it got broken.

[04:08] <smit> um
[04:08] <otg> xxx
[04:08] <smit> why cant i view my external hard drive

[04:10] <dr_Willis> smit,  you properly mount the drive, and you acces it.
[04:10] <Chaotic_Descent> what's the best way to reinstall something? I used applications -> add/remove,  and then immediately reinstalled it. am I supposed to ... refresh/reload something before I reinstall it?
[04:10] <shane_> can anyone see this?
[04:10] <otg> bgf
[04:10] <raichlea> shane_, we can see you

[04:10] <shane_> cool.
[04:10] <michael__> crashsystems: so maybe i think the hdparm dont give me a true result.
[04:11] <ef> 査
[04:11] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: using the add/remove GUI for apt should work just fine

[04:11] <twbbs> hi hi
[04:11] <Chaotic_Descent> curses. then I'm out of theories.
[04:11] <crashsystems> @michael__ perhaps there is an obscure bug in it that causes this problem with that particular drive. Have you checked launchpad for open bugs?
[04:11] <raichlea> shane_, no idea
[04:11] <ManualOverDozer> add/remove with linux is easy, just uncheck it. to reinstall check it
[04:11] <drut> how do you run .exe's on linux?
[04:12] <Mechdave> drut, you use wine
[04:12] <michael__> crashsystems: one month ago i use the hdparm command to chang some parmeter on my 250 hardisk. and finally i broken it.
[04:12] <dr_Willis> shane_,  not that i have ever seen..  thisis a ext2/3 filesystem right?
[04:12] <mjponce> use wine
[04:12] <unewbie> has anyone copy repository to HDD?
[04:12] <ManualOverDozer> you dont run EXE's
[04:12] <Guest3043> Is there a network traffic monitor (packet sniffer) installed by default?
[04:12] <drut> mechdave, is that a joke or a program?
[04:12] <shane_> HFS
[04:12] <raichlea> bobertdos, yahoo works now, but not pogo...damn.
[04:12] <crashsystems> @michael__ lol. It has been quite a while since I've used hdparm
[04:12] <Bios_Element_> drut, It is a real program.
[04:12] <michael__> crashsystems: no i am not have a check, i am from china, and i cant suffer that website.
[04:12] <shane_> HFS+ with jounraling disabled
[04:12] <dr_Willis> shane_,  no idea on hfs at all. :)
[04:12] <Mechdave> drut, it is a program apt-get install wine
[04:12] <ManualOverDozer> guest packet sniffer ? hmmm, its in there, i cant happen to tell you exactly where atm
[04:12] <Bios_Element_> drut, You can read about it on it's site located http://www.winehq.org/
[04:13] <drut> Thanks
[04:13] <michael_m> processor scaling problem, can someone help???
[04:13] <raichlea> bobertdos, do you know how to get java working with opera?  I'll test it there
[04:13] <ManualOverDozer> i dont like apt-get, pain, use repository
[04:13] <shane_> on my mac my user has UID of 501 i want to make ubuntu write files as UID 501 to trick the system
[04:13] <Chaotic_Descent> why does VLC keep freezing when I stop playback? There's gotta be something wrong going on. It's even freezing when I save settings while video is paused.
[04:13] <Guest3043> drut, sudo apt- get install wine
[04:13] <crashsystems> @michael__ I really wish there was decent Chinese food near where I live.
[04:13] <ManualOverDozer> lol
[04:13] <Bosco> i have a problem i have an atheros wireless card after install it says that it is using the atheros driver but it wont load i can only see (ETHO and LO) how do i get it working
[04:13] <Mechdave> Guest3043, wireshark is what you want
[04:13] <smit> I added the driver, BUT IT STILL DOESNT WORK
[04:14] <michael_m> Bosco: does it happen to be a 5007eg?
[04:14] <ManualOverDozer> make sure the checkbox is checked to enable to atheros card
[04:14] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: if you start vlc from terminal, do you get any errors or anything usefull to try and debug the situation ?
[04:14] <michael__> crashsystems: so now i have to buy another one. and i use my old 80g disk. and when i get the result in 57mb/s of it. why i buy another one? serious problem.
[04:14] <smit> my external drive, which is plugged in via usb, does not show up at all in ubuntu, still
[04:14] <ManualOverDozer> in network you will see the little checkbox, make sure it is checked and you set you ssid and other info
[04:14] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: how do I start VLC from terminal? I know the terminal.
[04:14] <michael__> crashsystems: so where are you from?
[04:14] <bobertdos> raichlea: Yeah, you just have to create a symbolic link in the appropriate plugins directory. I don't know where that is in Opera, but if you can find it, that's what you would do. Maybe Pango would work with a newer version of the JRE, downloaded directly from Sun........
[04:14] <dr_Willis> Chaotic_Descent,  thje command is 'vlc' :)
[04:14] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: just run "vlc"
[04:14] <michael__> crashsystems: china town?
[04:14] <ManualOverDozer> double-click on the card, it should enable it that way too
[04:15] <smit> my external drive, which is plugged in via usb, does not show up at all in ubuntu, still
[04:15] <Chaotic_Descent> VLC: command not found.
[04:15] <crashsystems> @michael__ I am from america.
[04:15] <dr_Willis> Chaotic_Descent,  thje command is 'vlc'   lower case
[04:15] <ManualOverDozer> vlc works nice, bothing wrong with it cept sometimes i get wierd display when fast forwarding
[04:15] <unewbie> anyone copied dvd repo to HDD?
[04:15] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: no errors. just shows the version number.
[04:15] <ManualOverDozer> i copied whole repository to my HDD
[04:15] <michael_m> can someone help me with a processor problem, its driving me insane
[04:15] <Hobbsee> crashsystems, michael__: how about you take that discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic, as it's not related to ubuntu support.
[04:15] <Chaotic_Descent> ooops. thanks dr_Willis. -_-;
[04:15] <ManualOverDozer> doesnt mean i installed everything, just downloaded it
[04:15] <Guest3043> Is Wireshark installed by default
[04:16] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: start went ok, try and play something and see if it throws anything
[04:16] <madfrancis> How do I uninstall my nvidia drivers and reset my xorg.conf back to default? I have what appears to be an irreversible conflict.
[04:16] <smit> HELP ME!
[04:16] <raichlea> opera wants me to give it the path to the plugin but doesn't seem to like it
[04:16] <michael__> crashsystems: yes, a cool country. so will you come to beijing for the world's sport game.
[04:16] <smit> my external drive, which is plugged in via usb, does not show up at all in ubuntu, still
[04:16] <Mechdave> Guest3043, no you have to install it
[04:16] <pabix> Hello! I am connected with “ssh -X” to a computer, but when I try to execute a graphical command, it displays “Error: no display specified”
[04:16] <Hobbsee> Guest3043: no
[04:16] <michael__> Hobbsee: sorry for that.
[04:16] <pabix> How do I know the number of my display?
[04:16] <ManualOverDozer> resetting xorg back to default may be somewhat tricky, tries to change display mode to smaller mode
[04:16] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: cannot open audio device (/dev/dsp)
[04:16] <ManualOverDozer> if you do all right, it will revert back to original
[04:16] <gnychis> how can i get VNC server to start when the machine boots so I can remote in to it, rather than only being able to remote in to it when i'm logged in?
[04:16] <Guest3043> Thanks, I just wanted to make sure I didn't put two on my system due to ignorance
[04:17] <pabix> smit, can you pastebin “sudo lsusb“ ?
[04:17] <smit> my external drive, which is plugged in via usb, does not show up at all in ubuntu, still
[04:17] <pabix> smit, no need to repeat twice or thrice
[04:17] <ManualOverDozer> does your USB port show ?
[04:17] <dr_Willis> smit,  you could always try mounting it manually - assuming its ntfs filesystem  with a command like --->  sudo ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/Windows_MAKE_this_directoryfirst  -o force
[04:17] <dr_Willis>
[04:17] <Mechdave> Guest3043, apt-get would not let you do that :)
[04:17] <michael__> crashsystems: thank you for your help, i will check buglist of hdparm, and it's lunch time now, goodbye, thank you very much.
[04:17] <ManualOverDozer> i mount manual, with mount manager
[04:17] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: that looks like you're VLC settings point to use OSS if i'm not mistaking .. could you recheck those ?
[04:17] <Bosco> michael__, no it is not one sec and i will tell you what it is
[04:17] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: yup. it was. I'll try another one.
[04:17] <pabix> smit, are you using GNOME?
[04:17] <Guest3043> No, I meant packet sniffers in general, not Wireshark specifically
[04:17] <wols_> michael__: pastebin those results
[04:17] <smit> yes
[04:18] <Bosco> michael_m,  no it is not one sec and i will tell you what it is
[04:18] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: ... that's funny. same error.
[04:18] <smit> when i type sudo lsusb nothing happens
[04:18] <pabix> smit, can you add to your gnome panel the "mount helper" applet?
[04:18] <ManualOverDozer> ethereal is in repository, or it used to be
[04:18] <raichlea> bobertdos, I appreciate your help but I'm so tired my eyes are crossing.  I'm going to head to bed
[04:18] <raichlea> bobertdos, thanks agian
[04:18] <pabix> I do not know exactly its name in English
[04:18] <ManualOverDozer> ehterreal is packet sniffer, same as wireshark, which are very good packet sniffers
[04:18] <pabix> Maybe, disk mounter
[04:18] <bobertdos> raichlea: no problem
[04:18] <Mechdave> ManualOverDozer, I thought ethereal = wireshark
[04:18] <wols_> Mechdave: yes
[04:18] <smit> yes
[04:18] <ManualOverDozer> yes it does
[04:18] <Bosco> michael_m, it is an atherose 5bxb63
[04:18] <ManualOverDozer> i said it being some may not know
[04:19] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: even though I switched to ALSA, I got the error: oss audio output error: cannot open audio device (/dev/dsp)
[04:19] <drut> kismet is also a good packet sniffer
[04:19] <ManualOverDozer> kismet very good as well
[04:19] <bobertdos> smit: Does fdisk detect the drive?
[04:19] <smit> my drive is not there
[04:19] <Bosco> michael_m, it is an atherose ar5bxb63 srry
[04:19] <pabix> smit, some icons will appear, maybe you will see you external drive
[04:19] <gnychis> how can i get VNC server to start when the machine boots so I can remote in to it, rather than only being able to remote in to it when i'm logged in?
[04:19] <pabix> smit, ok… maybe it is not recognised
[04:19] <bobertdos> smit: As in, sudo fdisk -l (in the terminal)?
[04:19] <wols_> Chaotic_Descent: the program which outputs sound uses oss tho. load the alsa oss emulation layer
[04:19] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: try changing the settings back to default and close VLC, then reopen, not that i can explain, but just to see what's going on :)
[04:19] <Guest3043> How does Kismet compare to Wireshark, IM me the answers please, I am having trouble following everything
[04:19] <michael__> wols_: Timing cached reads:   1860 MB in  2.00 seconds = 930.17 MB/sec
[04:19] <michael__>  Timing buffered disk reads:  170 MB in  3.02 seconds =  56.26 MB/sec
[04:19] <pabix> open a terminal and type ls /dev/disk/by-uuid/
[04:20] <smit> it is not shown in fdisk
[04:20] <wols_> michael__: both disks on the same PATA cable?
[04:20] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: I also got in between changing settings, and before I exited: main audio output error: no decoder thread
[04:20] <pabix> smit, try another USB plug
[04:20] <wols_> smit: dmesg |grep usb
[04:20] <wols_> smit: dmesg |grep -i usb
[04:21] <glitsj16> wols_: true, but that doesn't explain why Cahoatic_Descent can't change his settings and get them to stick no ?
[04:21] <dumples> I'm having a problem where some windows such as Advanced Desktop Effect settings will jump up or down whenever I click.

[04:22] <andrer> i have a quad core box running ubuntu with php 5.2, but a php page I have is SLOW to load on benchmarks... AB says it's being able to open 90 request/s, on a older (MUCH OLDER) single core box, i get 220 request/s on the same PHP page... is there anything that needs to be done on php+ubuntu? the CPU usage on the machine during benchmark is MINIMAL... but the benchmark runs slow
[04:22] <smit> bobertdos, no im just trying to move one fike
[04:22] <smit> file*
[04:22] <michael__> wols: i use the 250G on sata interface
[04:22] <ManualOverDozer> chaotic , maybe miststated, isnt there a generic audio driver for audio cards that arent natively compatable with linux ?
[04:22] <xfroggy> what is the point of "Force Quit" applet, if the system if freezing from misbehaving application, everything freezing, and u finally get a chance to click "force quit" on the application, since it will take twice as long for a terminal to open, and it starts loading the dialog if I want to quit....who the hell designed that?
[04:23] <michael_m> processor scaling problem, any help please?
[04:23] <dumples> Does anyone know how to fix a problem where windows will jump around when you click on them?
[04:23] <tritium_> xfroggy: no need for swearing
[04:23] <Chaotic_Descent> ... what the hell... now it's installing after I selected ALSA... it didn't do this last time I selected ALSA...
[04:23] <smit> hello?
[04:23] <xfroggy> apologize ^
[04:23] <ManualOverDozer> chaotic , just a curiosity question. as i had no problem with my audio chips
[04:23] <Chaotic_Descent> ... and still no audio.
[04:23] <tritium> Chaotic_Descent: same for you
[04:23] <smit> im in a rish
[04:23] <smit> rush
[04:23] <smit> what do i do
[04:23] <ManualOverDozer> i know i have seen something like a generic audio driver, just dont recall where
[04:23] <tritium> !enter | smit
[04:23] <Chaotic_Descent> tritium: what?
[04:23] <pabix> smit, we understand that you are in a rush, but we are trying to help you
[04:24] <tritium> Chaotic_Descent: no need to swear
[04:24] <Chaotic_Descent> tritium: I didn't swear.
[04:24] <ManualOverDozer> smit patience my friend, it may seem dificult at first, and maybe for a while, but it will all become clear at some point later
[04:24] <smit> ok, let me try something, i have to reboot though
[04:24] <tritium> Chaotic_Descent: you did above.  Let's move on, now.
[04:24] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: what is being installed ? strange ...
[04:25] <ManualOverDozer> audio
[04:25] <madfrancis> How do I replace my xorg.conf to it's original state?
[04:25] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: no idea. it's gone now. oh... wait. the system update was running in the background. -_-;
[04:25] <michael_m> my processor wont run faster than 800mhz can someone help?
[04:25] <glitsj16> :)
[04:25] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: again with: main audio output error: no decoder thread
[04:25] <ManualOverDozer> madfrancis , there is documention on the ubuntu site reguarding restoring the xorg
[04:25] <madfrancis> My computer thinks it's running two separate x screens when I'm only seeing one because the other monitor isn't working.  OK, somehow FireFox was blocking my audio. -_-;
[04:27] <Rampou> Hello everyone
[04:28] <Rampou> I have to fix a problem with your help please
[04:28] <ManualOverDozer> Rampou state the issue please
[04:28] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: ahaaa, flash hi-jacking ? .. VLC ok again ?
[04:28] <ManualOverDozer> VLC seems to work fine for most streams i have come accross
[04:28] <Cha1> How do I enable emerald file themes on ubuntu?
[04:29] <ManualOverDozer> right click on deskspace
[04:29] <Chaotic_Descent> *sigh* greeaaaaat. FireFox can't load because FireFox isn't closed, even though it did close because it left my audio devices alone.
[04:29] <the_real_fourthd> HI.  I accidently overwrote my modprobe.conf while disabling piv6.  does anyone know how to generate a new one?
[04:29] <hhp2k> Hey guys, how do you force quit a frozen app again?
[04:29] <Cha1> When i try to install an emerald theme it doesn't recognize the .emerald file?
[04:29] <ManualOverDozer> i have seen FireFox hang a few times, a simple close and restart had seems to work just fine
[04:29] <Rampou> the_real_fourthd, try to cp an other file download on the net maybe ?
[04:30] <the_real_fourthd> I can't find one.  I guess they're dynamically created
[04:30] <Rampou> it's my problem with update http://paste.ubuntu-fr-secours.org/source-directe-2300.html
[04:30] <pabix> Chaotic_Descent, killall firefox-bin firefox
[04:30] <dumples> I'm serious though, the fire wont leave
[04:30] <harpreet> Rampou check your internet
[04:30] <the_real_fourthd> hhp2k,  add the kill application applet to your taskbar.
[04:31] <the_real_fourthd> Chaotic_Descent, run "top" in your terminal
[04:31] <spasticteapot> Does anyone know where ACPI puts my battery info?
[04:31] <the_real_fourthd> then "k" and the pid of firefox
[04:31] <Rampou> harpreet, check internet why ?
[04:31] <the_real_fourthd> anyone know how to generate a new modprobe.conf?
[04:31] <pabix> the_real_fourthd, can also type "pidof firefox"
[04:31] <michael_m> why cant i change processor speed in cpu frequency applet???
[04:31] <pabix> or "pkill firefox"
[04:32] <the_real_fourthd> that's faster.:)
[04:32] <Chaotic_Descent> the_real_fourthd: what?
[04:32] <ManualOverDozer> spastic there is a way to p[ut your battery meter on a menu bar or task bar, whichever you choose
[04:32] <pabix> the_real_fourthd, I do not even have such a file on my computer, what is it for?
[04:32] <harpreet> Rampou: update your source list either manually or from software sources update manager
[04:32] <the_real_fourthd> pabix: /etc/modprobe.conf
[04:32] <freonchill> can someone tell me why firefox has not been updated to 3.0.1 on the repositories?
[04:33] <the_real_fourthd> for working with modules
[04:33] <pabix> the_real_fourthd, I have no such file
[04:33] <dr_Willis> freonchill,  ive heard its in the 'prposed' repos.. and after tested a bit it may move to the other repos.
[04:33] <pabix> locate modprobe.conf | wc => 0 0 0
[04:33] <ManualOverDozer> freon, they may have removed it, being it had too many bugs to be a release
[04:33] <the_real_fourthd> that's odd.  I guess they're dynamic.  I had one, others had, and others didn't
[04:33] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: you can try to upgrade your flash plugin to get around those sound blocking issues in firefox, many people have those
[04:33] <wli> sup?
[04:33] <Rampou> harpreet, I try but it says the same thing everytime
[04:34] <ManualOverDozer> flash had always been a little funky on ubuntu
[04:34] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: where do I upgrade that?
[04:34] <glitsj16> a little ? :)
[04:34] <ManualOverDozer> !flash
[04:34] <wli> ok
[04:34] <Rampou> harpreet, with both
[04:34] <ManualOverDozer> and for the one that asked about restoring xorg
[04:34] <ManualOverDozer> !xorg
[04:34] <smit> i was right, none of my usb device are working in ubuntu
[04:34] <freonchill> ok, thanks for the information
[04:35] <smit> how do i fix it
[04:35] <Scientus_> how do i find and add bonjour printers?
[04:35] <ManualOverDozer> thats it, if your USB wont work, the drive will never appear, no matter what you do
[04:35] <ManualOverDozer> USB being the issue
[04:35] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: many ways, but i find getting over to packages.ubuntu.com and downloading the flashplugin-nonfree .deb from there the easiest by far .. after you have that, just double-click it
[04:35] <smit> no ubuntu, being the issue
[04:35] <smit> the drives work, but not in ubuntu
[04:35] <smit> how do i enable drives in ubuntu
[04:35] <smit> i mean usb
[04:36] <ManualOverDozer> look in repository
[04:36] <dr_Willis> thats weird that usb is not working..   i imagine the usb controller may be so new its not supported.. or confusing things..
[04:36] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: left out the important part, look for the Intrepid deb for flashplugin-nonfree :)
[04:36] <Mechdave> smit, what brand drives are they?
[04:36] <Zooback> would anyone know why i have a much weaker connection to my LAN when using ubuntu as opposed to running windows xp from the same machine?
[04:36] <ManualOverDozer> i have never seen USB fail, but then, there is always a first time
[04:36] <smit> pny and maxtor
[04:36] <CreaiveX> l
[04:36] <smit> also, my ubuntu load takes about 5 mins
[04:36] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: the Intrepid .deb is the flash player 10 beta 2
[04:36] <smit> it used to be 10 seconds
[04:36] <spasticteapot> zooback: Quite possibly the same connection strength - Windows is likely lying.
[04:36] <dr_Willis> ManualOverDozer,  Yea. ive only seen it once. ages ago. with a odd brand  usb card. i had.
[04:37] <smit> i think ubuntu is broken
[04:37] <ManualOverDozer> Zooback i find the oposite, i have much more speed with ubuntu, on the net, than with windows
[04:37] <smit> how do i repair ubuntu
[04:37] <ManualOverDozer> dr_willis, that may be just it, old hardware
[04:37] <smit> actually, does the livecd contain the dvd burner
[04:37] <harpreet> Rampou: check whether the link exists
[04:37] <Mechdave> smit, I heard maxtor don't work in linux
[04:38] <ManualOverDozer> smit most things can be just uninstalled and reinstalled in ubuntu, not much need to reinstall or repair the whole OS, like you may have to do in widnows so many time
[04:38] <dr_Willis> maxtor drives? i dont know why they souldent.
[04:38] <Bios_Element_> So does anyone know any good guides for setting up Ubuntu with Speakers and a headset?
[04:38] <smit> does the livecd contain the gnome dvd burner?
[04:38] <ManualOverDozer> i have tried Western Digital and Samsung, drives, never had a problem
[04:38] <Scientus_> how do i find and add bonjour/avahi printers?
[04:38] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: ... ok... it just expanded into like 50 listings, and from there, another few hundred when I took a guess on which link to click...
[04:38] <Amun> are there any GUI fstab editors, or walkthroughs, or faqs? i hate reading man pages. too complicated.
[04:38] <wols_> smit: what makes you think it is broken?
[04:38] <dr_Willis> Bios_Element_,  thats a little vague.. :)
[04:39] <smit> you guys are no help
[04:39] <Zooback> spasticteapot: all my updates times out and firefox runs extremely slow in ubuntu as opposed to windows
[04:39] <Rampou> harpreet, how i do? and if they don't exist?
[04:39] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: :) hang on, i'll get you the correct link .. are you on 32 bit ubuntu ?
[04:39] <michael_m> need help with cpu frequency scaling monitor?
[04:39] <ManualOverDozer> Zooback it may be a plugin for FireFoz that is hampering you.
[04:39] <michael_m> can someone help me?
[04:40] <Bios_Element_> dr_willis, I'm trying to find a way so i can swap between the different devices such as a headset ingame and speakers for everything else and so on. But it's proving rather complex.
[04:40] <spasticteapot> zooback: Version?
[04:40] <Chaotic_Descent> glitsj16: uh... I'm using an Intel P3. ... isn't 32bit that new thing?
[04:40] <Zooback> spasticteapot: 8.04 hardy heron
[04:40] <spasticteapot> Hardware?
[04:40] <ManualOverDozer> michael what need do you have for CPU scaling, in most cases, it is not even needed
[04:40] <Scientus_> how do i find and add bonjour/avahi printers?\
[04:40] <Zooback> i'm running it off a sony vaio pc
[04:40] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm using Hardy Heron.
[04:40] <dr_Willis> Bios_Element_,  i just turn the spekers off when i want to use the headsets :) on the switch i got on the desk.  A lot can depend on the exact sound card you got from what ive heard.
[04:40] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: 64-bit is the new thing i suppose, P3 is 32 bit, i'll get the link, hold on a sec
[04:40] <ManualOverDozer> !printer
[04:41] <harpreet> Rampou go check the links manually with mozilla
[04:41] <neon> is it woth it to update to ibex? from a good running hardy
[04:41] <michael_m> manualoverdozer: well my cpu will not go past 800mhz no matter what i do so i figured i could use it to set it at 1.8ghz
[04:41] <dr_Willis> Bios_Element_,  part of the reason to the pulse audio stuff - i belive was to make such things easier.
[04:41] <pale-yafa> how come the www-data is not in the users list?
[04:41] <gnychis> how can i get VNC server to start when the machine boots so I can remote in to it, rather than only being able to remote in to it when i'm logged in?
[04:42] <Zooback> ManualOverDozer: i'm not using any plugins in firefox, currently i trying to run 8.04 from the live cd to see if any results change
[04:42] <ManualOverDozer> michael , do you happen to see a performace drop in the system, running at 800mhz? after all, cpu measuring tools are alot of times, incorrectly reading cpu speed
[04:42] <Bios_Element_> dr_willis, Thanks for the help. I'll get working on seeing what I can do and be back if i can't.
[04:42] <ManualOverDozer> it may be that it is runing at 1.8ghz, just showing 800mhz, asd i have seen before
[04:43] <dr_Willis> gnychis,  you can install the 'stand alone' vnc4server, or other vncserver packages, and ssh in and run them,. or set them up to run from rc.local if you wanted. No need to have a 'local' desktop (or x even) running at all.
[04:43] <neon> michael_m: do you have powernowd installed ?
[04:43] <pale-yafa> gnychis: just make it accept connections automatically, and protect this with password
[04:43] <dr_Willis> gnychis,  people sitting at the lcoal machine cant watch what you are doing either. :)
[04:43] <michael_m> neon: i dont know, never heard of it
[04:43] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: remove what you have as flashplugin-nonfree in synaptic first and double-click this .deb file after doing that, that should give firefox the beta 10 flash plugin .. http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/i386/flashplugin-nonfree/download
[04:43] <ManualOverDozer> isnt that in Services section ? PowerNowD ?
[04:43] <dunnen> a
[04:44] <neon> ubuntu install it by default if you do not want your cpu to throttle uninstall it
[04:44] <harpreet> gnychis: check this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=827165
[04:44] <ManualOverDozer> michael if you dotn see a perfromance drop in the system, i wouldnt worry about changing the speed, as it may just very well be incorrectly metered
[04:44] <michael_m> neon: how do i remove it? sudo apt-get remove ?
[04:44] <Rampou> harpreet, ok, i'm going to check
[04:45] <neon> michael_m: apt-get remove powernowd
[04:45] <ManualOverDozer> michael i have it on a 3ghz and it reads 800mhz too, the system runs fine, and i see no drop in perfromace, the OS is incorrectly reading CPU speed
[04:45] <michael_m> manualoverdozer: ok ill keep that in mind, ill remove powernowd and if no performance gain ill reinstall it
[04:45] <chriswr> can anyone help me with changing pidgins background color ? im having trouble seeing my friends text
[04:45] <wols_> michael_m: no
[04:46] <wols_> ManualOverDozer: no
[04:46] <pale-yafa> guys, where is the www-data user? I dont have it after installing hardy
[04:46] <michael_m> wols_: huh?
[04:46] <wols_> pale-yafa: have you installed apache2?
[04:46] <ManualOverDozer> wols ?
[04:46] <wols_> michael_m: was for ManualOverDozer
[04:46] <pale-yafa> wols_: yes
[04:46] <michael_m> ok haha
[04:46] <wols_> ManualOverDozer: the OS is not incorrectly reading anything
[04:46] <fde> chriswr: pidgin Tools > Plugins > GTK Theme Chooser ... enable that and look through it, I think it's there.
[04:46] <harpreet> Rampou: you may have to manually update the source list did u do that?
[04:46] <administrator_> squall
[04:46] <pale-yafa> wols_: I have apache runing but cant see www-data in the users lst
[04:47] <ManualOverDozer> wols, that is correct, the OS is doing what it is told
[04:47] <wols_> pale-yafa: getent passwd www-data
[04:47] <administrator_> 我在干什么？
[04:47] <gnychis> harpreet: thanks, what might be the equivalent of /etc/kde3/kdm/Xsetup for gnome?
[04:47] <ManualOverDozer> even then, CPU meters are hardly accurate
[04:47] <Rampou> harpreet, by the way of mozilla so ?
[04:47] <wols_> !zn | administrator_
[04:47] <Rampou> harpreet, before to go check link on mozilla?
[04:47] <wols_> !zc | administrator_
[04:47] <wols_> !cn | administrator_
[04:48] <harpreet> Rampou: check on mozilla if the link works
[04:48] <fde> chriswr: failing that, just Preferences > Conversations > uncheck "Show formatting on incoming messages"
[04:48] <administrator_> what?
[04:48] <FuRom> Can anyone direct me to an encoder for video? Something with a GUI? I need to re-encode an MP4, because it's frames are so big that they cause video lag. The video doesn't sync up with the sound. =/
[04:48] <chriswr> i got it thnx
[04:48] <harpreet> Rampou: then manually update the source list, you have to add those sources manually to the sources list then it will work 99%
[04:48] <administrator_> kuang yun
[04:48] <administrator_> zhedoushi shenme a
[04:48] <sharp_> english?
[04:48] <neon> michael_m: did it work?
[04:49] <glitsj16> FuRom: hi again, what about ffmpeg (use the version from the medibuntu repo) and get winFF from google code as a nice frontend ?
[04:50] <ManualOverDozer> test: connection reset by peer
[04:52] <rexus> where can I find the ubuntu repository?
[04:52] <ManualOverDozer> packages
[04:53] <FenixNR> Anyone have a guide for manual partition of a hard drive?
[04:53] <Rampou> harpreet, cool, i didn't know that thanks for your help, i'll let you know
[04:53] <ManualOverDozer> there is a partition application built into Ubuntu
[04:53] <Flannel> FenixNR: Whats your question?
[04:53] <Flannel> !mirrors | rexus
[04:53] <harpreet> Rampou: you are welcome
[04:53] <FenixNR> I need to manually guide my hdd because the install will not do it
[04:54] <rexus> what's the difference between ubuntu server and desktop aside from the LTS term
[04:54] <unavailable> so does anyone have a screenlet or desklet that will draw icons on the desktop yet?
[04:54] <Flannel> rexus: Both are LTS.  Desktop has the GUI preinstalled, server doesn't.
[04:54] <unavailable> rexus server is text based
[04:55] <harpreet> rexux, server can be only terminal based while desktop can't
[04:55] <Flannel> harpreet: No, they both can be.
[04:55] <jetsaredim> where can i download intrepid beta?
[04:55] <unavailable> harpreet hit ctrl alt f1 once
[04:55] <Flannel> jetsaredim: #ubuntu+1 for intrepid questions.  Also, Intrepid is ALPHA not beta.
[04:55] <Rampou> harpreet, I get 2 links so one of both is posted, and the other is in download, how can i install us manually?
[04:55] <rexus> so for home user ubuntu desktop then...
[04:55] <Flannel> rexus: Yes
[04:55] <rexus> same like fedora right?
[04:56] <rexus> I get the GUI and all the fancy other things right?
[04:56] <Rampou> harpreet, install them not us lol
[04:56] <Flannel> rexus: Yes
[04:56] <Rampou> harpreet, i have made my first lapsus in english ^^
[04:56] <jetsaredim> Flannel: forgot about that channel - thx
[04:57] <unavailable> alpha, beta, gamma, its all the same
[04:57] <unavailable> greek
[04:57] <unavailable> so does anyone have a screenlet or desklet that will draw icons on the desktop yet?
[04:57] <doje> hi, where should I put a bootup script in ubuntu ?  in suse I would put things in /etc/init.d/boot.local
[04:58] <Mechdave> doje, in /etc/rc.local
[04:58] <harpreet> Rampou: try first go to software sources and update it ....
[04:58] <harpreet> Rampou: then open a terminal and try installing the thing..let me know how it goes..
[04:58] <glitsj16> unavailable: any special needs to get a screenlet to put an icon on your desktop ?
[04:58] <unavailable> yep
[04:58] <unavailable> no icons
[04:59] <unavailable> long story short compiz and nautilus dont like each other
[04:59] <FenixNR> Does anyone have a manual partition walk through? Or wanna walk me through it?
[04:59] <Rampou> harpreet, ok, no problem
[04:59] <unavailable> so i need a screenlet or desklet to draw icons on my desktop
[04:59] <harpreet> Rampou: go for sudo apt-get update first
[04:59] <doje> Mechdave: I saw that file - I was confused by the start/stop bit - does that get run on shutdown as well ?
[05:00] <jacob_n> In hardy, how can i downgrade the japanese fonts to what they looked like in gutsy gibbon and earlier?
[05:00] <Flannel> FenixNR: Just fire up a liveCD with gparted and partition it how you'd like
[05:00] <glitsj16> unavailable: okay, weird though, but then again i never use nautilus .. screenlets or gdesklets may have what you want
[05:00] <unavailable> fenixnr http://www.howtoforge.com/partitioning_with_gparted
[05:00] <FenixNR> Flannel, I have tried, but after I make one partition it quits letting me make anymore
[05:00] <harpreet> Rampou: then type sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:00] <unavailable> glitsj16 well so far i havent been able to find any, thats why im asking
[05:00] <Flannel> FenixNR: you already have some parititions on the disk, and you're adding to them?
[05:01] <FenixNR> I have free space that I deleted off, just for ubuntu
[05:01] <harpreet> Rampou: then at the bottom of the list add both two lines and save it and exit ...try installing afterwards.. got it?
[05:01] <glitsj16> unavailabe: those are actual package names, screenlets look rather nice, and you can put them on the compiz 'widget layer'
[05:01] <unavailable> glitsj16: and the problem is when you enable different backgrounds for cube desktop, you have to disable nautilus draw desktop, which kills your icons
[05:01] <FenixNR> So I tried the freespace partition, after it does that, it stops on the swap with an error
[05:01] <Flannel> FenixNR: yes, that's not what I asked.  But you do have other partitions?  How many?  3? and you're trying to make at least two?
[05:01] <unavailable> glitsj16: yes and I use screenlets.
[05:02] <unavailable> glitsj16: but again i havent been able to find any
[05:02] <FenixNR> I have 2 partitions, C,D for my vista and backup area, then I have the free space for linux
[05:02] <ManualOverDozer> FinixNR is it a relatively new drive ? not some old beat up one ?
[05:02] <FenixNR> Brand new drive
[05:02] <Flannel> FenixNR: and you're trying to make how many more?
[05:02] <ManualOverDozer> ext part
[05:02] <glitsj16> unavailable: hmm yes, true .. just the included screenlets in there i suppose, sorry for the confusion
[05:02] <FenixNR> Flannel, Enough to install ubuntu with
[05:03] <unavailable> glitsj16: and ive searched gnome-look for hours, and even came in here, and asked a while back
[05:03] <ManualOverDozer> FenixNR , by chance, do you have a windows installation on same drive ?
[05:03] <harpreet> FenixNR: you can try gparted
[05:03] <FenixNR> Same drive, yes
[05:03] <Flannel> FenixNR: That's not really helpful.  Anyway, your problem *sounds* like it has to do with primary vs extended/logical partitions.
[05:03] <ManualOverDozer> beware, Ubuntu will chance Master Boot
[05:03] <ManualOverDozer> change
[05:03] <pabix> [question] ! I am connected with “ssh -X” to a computer, but when I try to execute a graphical command, it displays “Error: no display specified”
[05:03] <pabix> How do I know the number of my display?
[05:03] <FenixNR> Flannel, It's one 500 gig hard drive, 2 ntfs file systems, and FREE SPACE for the ubuntu one. It's 133gigs.
[05:04] <unavailable> glitsj16: but someone told me that until they have the ability to read and update whats in a folder im out of luck
[05:04] <doje> pabix: probably the DISPLAY environment var isn't set properly
[05:04] <FenixNR> Whenever I try to partition, after the second partition wether it be the ext3 or swap, it will make the rest unusable
[05:04] <Flannel> FenixNR: This has nothing to do with the space.  It has everything to do with the fact you can only have four primary partitions (or three primary and one exteneded) partition.
[05:04] <pabix> doje, actually it is empty
[05:04] <unavailable> huh?
[05:04] <ManualOverDozer> Flannel has the idea
[05:04] <pabix> but I don't know what to set
[05:05] <unavailable> lemmie think here a min...
[05:05] <harpreet> FenixNR: you have to manually make the rest of the area ext3/2
[05:05] <pabix> I have tried with DISPLAY=:0.0 firefox, and I guess it has displayed on the remote machine
[05:05] <doje> pabix: google ssh and DISPLAY and you'll probably find it
[05:05] <wli> Hello
[05:05] <FenixNR> harpreet how would I do that?
[05:05] <wli> good
[05:05] <doje> pabix: I think you might need the target machine name in it
[05:05] <jetsaredim> anyone know why so many people get notified when I update my personal wiki page on the ubuntu wiki?
[05:05] <pabix> oh, ok
[05:05] <_Net> Hi
[05:05] <unavailable> flannel so no matter how big my drive is, i cant have more than 4 parts on it?
[05:06] <doje> pabix: I'm about 2 days new to ubuntu though
[05:06] <_Net> Im trying to install compiz fusion for a friend through SSH and everytime I do I get this error:
[05:06] <_Net> E: Couldn't find package gnome-compiz-manager
[05:06] <n-iCe_> hello, I need a hand, I am following a tutorial, http://www.howtoforge.com/chrooted_ssh_howto_debian_p2 , in the command echo '#!/bin/bash' > usr/bin/groups ,something seems wrong, and it is I got a permission denied, what could be the problem? thanks
[05:06] <_Net> I did an update, upgrade, dist-upgrade, Everything so why does this happen
[05:06] <Flannel> unavailable: You can have only four primary partitions (or three primary and one extended).  And then inside the extended partition, you can have as many logical partitions as you want.
[05:06] <ManualOverDozer> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowtoPartition
[05:06] <unavailable> flannel ok
[05:06] <Flannel> n-iCe_: compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:06] <n-iCe_> Flannel: whut?
[05:06] <glitsj16> unavailable: i think there's a setting you can change for nautilus in gconf, read it here before but didn't stick cause i don't use it myself, try google for that perhaps .. and there's http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=4386 that might be informative as well ..
[05:06] <Flannel> _Net: compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:07] <n-iCe_> oh, lol
[05:07] <harpreet> FenixNR: right click on the unused space and what it says? or try up on the menu if u are trying to install linux....make it new partition from there
[05:07] <_Net> Ok ty
[05:07] <unavailable> glitsj16: patches do not work for gnome 2.22 (Hardy)
[05:07] <smit> alright, i give up, no external storage things are showing up, not my dvd's, usbs, etc.
[05:07] <smit> WHAT DO I DO!@
[05:07] <jetsaredim> Flannel: i think there's a limit to the number of logical partitions on an extended partition, but its way more than 4
[05:07] <doje> pabix: when I ssh -X and echo $DISPLAY  I get localhost:10.0
[05:07] <harpreet> FenixNR: i had same problem i made that space ntfs then ext3
[05:07] <pabix> ok
[05:08] <glitsj16> unavailable: i know, compile seems to be your only way out in that case
[05:08] <pabix> I will try sth like this
[05:08] <FenixNR> harpreet, I did the new partition part, but it won't do anything past that.
[05:08] <harpreet> FenixNR: but u have to make it ntfs then delete it probably..then u can
[05:08] <doje> pabix: not sure why it's "10" though
[05:08] <harpreet> FenixNR: it doesnt ask u from cylinder to start from?
[05:08] <pabix> doje, what happens if you type "who"?
[05:09] <FenixNR> harpreet, it does, and I have it started where it's supposed to be
[05:09] <harpreet> FenixNR: thats where the problem lies
[05:09] <harpreet> FenixNR: try changing the starting point..
[05:09] <Sergeant_Pony> does tracker have to be used?
[05:09] <ManualOverDozer> smit , dont give up, it will all work out just fine
[05:09] <smit> alright, i give up, no external storage things are showing up, not my dvd's, usbs, etc.  I cannot access them or anything
[05:09] <rexus> how to get help here?
[05:09] <smit> IT WILL NOT
[05:09] <doje> pabix: what are you looking for ?  I have "me  :0  datetime (console)"
[05:09] <FenixNR> I'm going to make just a swap and an ext3
[05:10] <rexus> I mean as the bot
[05:10] <smit> that is why, the file im trying to move, is VISTA
[05:10] <rexus> !firefox
[05:10] <pabix> I am looking for a :10
[05:10] <doje> pabix:  and "me  pts/0  datetime (<IP_ADDRESS>)"
[05:10] <Xavura> Does the 32 bit version of Ubuntu work on 64 bit processors?
[05:10] <rexus> !repository
[05:10] <smit> NOTHING is working on EVERYTHING!
[05:10] <Xavura> I imagine it just doesn't take advantage of the 64 bit processor?
[05:10] <doje> pabix: where 2.2 is the machine i'm at physically
[05:10] <Tarelerulz_man> Is there any program for windows that wil let me edit text files in my Ubuntu install. I wanted to mess with the menu.lst file for grub
[05:10] <ManualOverDozer> smit , if you are so used to windows systems, linux methods may be foriegn to you
[05:10] <n-iCe_> hello, I need a hand, I am following a tutorial, http://www.howtoforge.com/chrooted_ssh_howto_debian_p2 , in the command echo '#!/bin/bash' > usr/bin/groups ,something seems wrong, and it is I got a permission denied, what could be the problem? thanks
[05:11] <ManualOverDozer> smit , what OS you running now ?
[05:11] <smit> sadly ubuntu
[05:11] <ManualOverDozer> so it is working
[05:11] <smit> i guess
[05:11] <smit> i can type
[05:11] <Xavura> Does anyone know if the 32 bit version of Ubuntu work on 64 bit processors?
[05:11] <smit> but the usb, dvd, livecd, etc, wont work
[05:11] <harpreet> n-ice u trying sudo?
[05:11] <n-iCe_> harpreet: yup
[05:11] <ManualOverDozer> smit, is your mouse or keyboard USB ?
[05:11] <smit> no
[05:11] <FenixNR> Xavura, 32 bit will work on any processor 64 bit only works on 64 bit processors
[05:12] <[GuS]> Hi guys.. since a few days (after i think a upgrade of some packages) my email server stopped to work cause of amavisd-new: Starting amavisd: Error in config file "/etc/amavis/conf.d/05-domain_id": Insecure directory in $ENV{PATH} while running with -T switch at /etc/amavis/conf.d/05-domain_id line 7.
[05:12] <[GuS]> any know something about this?
[05:12] <ManualOverDozer> smit , have you checked your system BIOS/CMOS to ensure your USB is enabled ?
[05:12] <timsandtoms> I've already installed WinXP and Ubuntu 7.10, but can I resize my Ubuntu partition, and make ANOTHER install of Ubuntu(Or some other distro), without screwing anything up?
[05:12] <harpreet> n-iCe_: change permissions of the file with nautilus from root to your root(username) u know how to do that?
[05:12] <rexus> !backports
[05:13] <Flannel> jetsaredim: FDISK was limited to 23, and newer windows can accesss up to 670.  However, logical partitions are more of a linked list, and there are in fact an unlimited number of them
[05:13] <smit> i will restart and check
[05:13] <ubunubi> anyone know if using "persistent" mode...ubuntu only writes to the image files at shutdown, or periodically during the session?
[05:13] <dianapo> !ndiswrapper >dianapo
[05:13] <n-iCe_> harpreet: of what file
[05:13] <ManualOverDozer> if you have windows and linux on same drive, try using Partition Magic within windows to create linux partition, if that helps any
[05:13] <ManualOverDozer> ok smit
[05:13] <Tarelerulz_man> timsandtom gparted is great tool for resizeing ntfs partiton and what not
[05:13] <harpreet> n-iCe_: of the file it is denying permission
[05:13] <jetsaredim> Flannel: i stand corrected
[05:13] <FenixNR> harpreet, after doing what you have said, I get an error, it says: The ext3 file system creation in partition #4 of SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sda) failed.
[05:14] <alisasexy> Escriba el texto aquí....hi
[05:14] <Flannel> jetsaredim: Of course, I can't see why anyone would want to make so many partitions, but they could if they wanted to.
[05:14] <SSDF> Hey, when I download a theme and extract the files to .theme, then go into appearances and click install and go to that folder in .themes there is nothing there to install
[05:14] <Flannel> !es | alisasexy
[05:14] <unavailable> to anyone who runs a cpu temp monitor:    how often does your temp change degrees?
[05:14] <n-iCe_> harpreet: no idea, how
[05:14] <FenixNR> unavailable, all the time, anytime it starts processing or stops processing information
[05:14] <glitsj16> unavailable: last idea --> try changing /etc/compizconfig/config .. set the relevant "integration" settings from "true" to "false" for "general" and the session you use (either gnome or KDE)
[05:14] <ubunubi> unavailable: depends on what rate you have your monitor to update
[05:14] <harpreet> n-iCe_: try sudo nautilus
[05:14] <alisasexy> hello girl I want to see me in the Latino cam I'm alone
[05:14] <alisasexy> cam
[05:14] <ManualOverDozer> unavailable depends on what i am doing, it may vary about 10*c or 15*F
[05:15] <unavailable> thx
[05:15] <nickrud> SSDF extracting the files into ~/.themes is the installation, take a look under the customize button on the appearances dialog
[05:15] <ManualOverDozer> just a quess, but its not much
[05:15] <timsandtoms> Tarelerulz_man, I don't wanna screw with my NTFS partition, I want to resize my ext3 partition and install Ubuntu AGAIN on it. So instead of having one partition for Ubuntu and one for WinXP, I'd have TWO copies of Ubuntu installed and one copy of WinXP. But I just realized that was incredibly stupid and I could just make a new user account in Ubuntu...
[05:15] <ManualOverDozer> i run AMD/Mobile so its low temp.
[05:15] <n-iCe_> harpreet: same
[05:15] <Shish> hey, i dunno if this makes sense.. but my sound is working on ubuntu hardy, except for when i try to play a movie.. any movie -- where the sound worked before on ... ? help please..
[05:15] <ManualOverDozer> Shish CODECS ?
[05:16] <FenixNR> If I have 4 gigs of ram, do I even need a swap?
[05:16] <nickrud> SSDF for 90% of themes that is. Some need some compilation, or are don't have the proper directory structure without manual intervention
[05:16] <Flannel> FenixNR: Do you plan on hibernating?
[05:16] <Shish> ManualOverDozer: they should be fine, cause the sound worked on the same movies yesterday...actually even 5 hours ago
[05:16] <timsandtoms> FenixNR, are you planning on hibernating?
[05:16] <FenixNR> timsandtoms nope
[05:16] <harpreet> FenixNR: it didnt say anything else why or anything?
[05:16] <FenixNR> harpreet, no that is the only information
[05:16] <timsandtoms> FenixNR, then you don't need it.
[05:16] <Rampou> harpreet, when i put the link at the bottom of the sources.list it's tell me after apt-upade that there's a problem with this line :/
[05:17] <Tarelerulz_man> timesand , I used gparted to rezise my ntfs partiton for an ubuntu instal.  It worked for me.  YOu will have to make extented partion so you can have more then 4 partitoin
[05:17] <mewshi> alright, i'm getting VERY frustrated
[05:17] <FenixNR> I don't believe in hibernation on a desktop.
[05:17] <harpreet> Rampou delete that line and save the file
[05:17] <harpreet> from terminal
[05:17] <genii> FenixNR: Well, it exists
[05:17] <mewshi> I can't get my wireless to work.   Twice. Nevermind ;) I had a better idea anyways.
[05:17] <FenixNR> geniii, it won't after I get in and remove the option.
[05:17] <Rampou> harpreet, i've made, thank
[05:18] <nickrud> genii I wanted to answer that line, but yours was perfect ;)
[05:18] <genii> FenixNR: Good point :)
[05:18] <wolv> hi
[05:18] <FenixNR> Funny thing is, 2 main partitions, and 3 total now, and it still won't let me make the partition.
[05:18] <unavailable> shish try killall pulseaudio?
[05:18] <glitsj16> FenixNR: if you're already set to get rid of the swap, why bother asking ?
[05:18] <harpreet> FenixNR: try decreasing the size of the drive you are creating...
[05:18] <Shish> unavailable: k, ill try that right now
[05:18] <wolv> need some help in creating new partiton in ubuntu
[05:18] <FenixNR> The ext3 file system creating in partition #3 of SCSI3 (9,9,9) (sda) failed.
[05:18] <wolv> can anyone help me?
[05:19] <FenixNR> 0,0,0*
[05:19] <unavailable> Shish: and if nothing comes back do it again until it says no processes killed
[05:19] <FenixNR> harpreet, it's only 130 gigs
[05:19] <Tarelerulz_man> timsand I understand I am just saying make partitoin out of ntfs is easy with gpart and it does linux's partition type as well.  The partition type will need to be change so you can have more then 4 partitions. I had to do that to have 3 os on my system.
[05:19] <ManualOverDozer> smit ?
[05:19] <unavailable> but it will probably say no processes killed right away
[05:19] <pabix> wolv, dont ask to ask, ask
[05:19] <harpreet> FenixNR: make it FAT and try formatting
[05:19] <Shish> unavailable: wow.....  so it didnt say no processes killed.. right away.. but the sound works now
[05:19] <FenixNR> harpreet, Just formatted it again :(
[05:19] <Shish> unavailable: lol, thank you very much
[05:19] <unavailable> yep
[05:20] <mewshi> Could someone help me with my damn wireless?
[05:20] <unavailable> plug a cord in??
[05:20] <nickrud> mewshi um, no one has a clue about what's wrong, how about some diagnostics?
[05:20] <Stupid> in css  howto control the position of the tabs on the homepage of ubuntuforum, such as   Register  "Forum Help"
[05:21] <mewshi> bcm4318, it scans, i can use iwconfig to supposedly connect to a network, but it never actually does anything
[05:21] <wolv> I have 120 GB sata hdd, while installing ubuntu i left 70GB as 'unallocated space and use remaining (20G for '/' and 20G for /home) now I want to add another partition to store my data from that unallocated space how can I do it?
[05:21] <nickrud> Stupid this isn't a css channel, sorry. Maybe someone in #ubuntu-offtopic will be interested
[05:21] <luthovien> good night all.
[05:21] <unavailable> Stupid: well you would have to visit http:///www.w3schools.com for information on web / cascading style sheets info
[05:21] <pabix> wolv, System_> Administration > Partition editor
[05:21] <ManualOverDozer> smit how did it turn out ?
[05:21] <wolv> I tried creating partiton using Gparted
[05:22] <smit> everything is enabled, but nothing works, still
[05:22] <mewshi> it says its connected under iwconfig, but it doesn't let me connect to everything
[05:22] <wolv> it creates partiton but when I mount it it shows only lost+found folder
[05:22] <luthovien> have any of you guys been able to setup wifi on a eee pc on ubuntu intrepid?
[05:22] <ManualOverDozer> smit is that a prebuilt system like Dell or something like it ?
[05:22] <pabix> wolv, then the partition is created
[05:22] <unavailable> wolv 70 + 20 + 20 does not = 120
[05:22] <nickrud> mewshi I'm not a wireless expert by any stretch of the imagination, but di you run dhclient ?
[05:22] <mewshi> what...? O.o
[05:23] <smit> manualoverdozer, no, it is custom
[05:23] <wolv> I know its 110 + 2GB swap
[05:23] <smit> manualoverdozer, everything was working fine earlier today
[05:23] <unavailable> ok
[05:23] <nickrud> mewshi dhclient gets the ip address from the router, and sets up access to internet
[05:23]  * unavailable thinks that still doesnt add up
[05:23] <wolv> after creating partiton I cant create new folder on it
[05:23] <wolv> unavailable, cause 120 = 112GB
[05:23] <mewshi> OH! o.o
[05:23] <mewshi> um... how do I run that?
[05:23] <sdakak> I have vbox running Windows XP as guestOS.  How do I get the traditional in-window guest-OS?
[05:24] <pabix> wolv, ok, because it is not mounted with sufficient rights
[05:24] <ManualOverDozer> smit have you run windows on that sme box and USB works within windows ?
[05:24] <smit> usb was working within ubuntu earlier today
[05:24] <itai-michaelson> hi, whenever i login/logout or close full screen applications my monitor (syncmaster 943) pops a notice recomending 1440X990 resolution , is there anyway to stop it from doing so?
[05:24] <wolv> ok so what can I do so I can store my data (songs and setups)
[05:24]  * unavailable now thinks math class was lying but hey its probably a b B conversion thing
[05:24] <ManualOverDozer> smit have you updated anything or changed any settings since it was working ?
[05:24] <harpreet> n-iCe_: try only su on the terminal
[05:24] <pabix> wolv, could you use paste (http://paste.ubuntu.com/) the result of tho command "mount" ?
[05:24] <smit> i think i update bios
[05:25] <nickrud> mewshi not exactly sure to tell you the truth. I just use NetworkManager in gnome, I've seen others talk about it.  sudo dhclient <interface> I think
[05:25] <smit> i dont know if it happened right after
[05:25] <alisasexy> I like playing for the camera with very bad boys
[05:25] <harpreet> n-iCe_: i meant "su" enter then give terminal ur password
[05:25] <ManualOverDozer> smit well that can surely do something of what you speak.
[05:25] <smit> should i downgrade?
[05:25] <wolv> I m not using terminal to mount
[05:25] <sdakak> !vbox
[05:25] <n-iCe_> harpreet:  odne, says that the directory doesn't exists
[05:25] <unavailable> !ohmy | alisasexy
[05:25] <wolv> I just right click--->mount
[05:25] <pabix> wolv, the command "mount" lists tho mounted partitions
[05:25] <ManualOverDozer> smit search the repositories for USB, see what is intalled and maybe you can reinstall it from there
[05:26] <wolv> k
[05:26] <harpreet> n-iCe_: what are you using? terminal?
[05:26] <n-iCe_> harpreet: yeah
[05:26] <mewshi> Hm o.o
[05:26] <mewshi> sunuvabitch o.o
[05:26] <nickrud> !language | mewshi
[05:26] <harpreet> n-iCe_: opena  new terminal window and type "su"
[05:26] <ManualOverDozer> smit , if it was working earlier, it will work at some point.
[05:26] <n-iCe_> harpreet: done
[05:26] <n-iCe_> I mena I can use the command, but the directoy doesn't eixst harpreet
[05:26] <nickrud> mewshi work?
[05:27] <n-iCe_> harpreet: this one usr/bin/groups
[05:27] <weretac0> ok.. here is one I'm sure you've heard already
[05:27] <mattgyver83> How can i boot a java .jar file at startup?  When i setup in sessions it does not work, however works fine in terminal. (ie: java -jar /app/location.jar)
[05:27] <weretac0> go to mount a usb  HDD that is nfs
[05:27] <weretac0> err ntfs
[05:27] <impotence> has anyone here ever setup a software raid? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=868146
[05:27] <weretac0> and i get: mount is denied because setuid and setgid root ntfs-3g is insecure with the extrnal FUSE library
[05:27] <pabix> wolv, is it ok?
[05:27] <wolv> pabix, http://paste.ubuntu.com/29850/
[05:28] <wolv> that /sda3 is a new partition
[05:28] <nickrud> mattgyver83 try creating a script that calls that line, and add the script to startup. Don't forget to make the script executable
[05:28] <pabix> wolv, ok. Now paste the result of : ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid | grep sda3
[05:28] <smit> i will reset bios to original
[05:28] <nickrud> weretac0 don't set it uid/gid root then ?
[05:29] <ajhtiredwolf> Hey there was a feature in compiz that i really loved, similar to the Mac osx document selector. You could move your mouse to the corner of the screen and it shrunk all windows and displayed them all at the same time. Can this still be used?
[05:29] <nickrud> ajhtiredwolf yes, its called scale
[05:29] <pabix> ajhtiredwolf, it can be used
[05:29] <glitsj16> ajhtiredwolf: yep, it's the 'scale' plugin
[05:29] <pabix> You have to instal compizconfig-settings package or a name like that
[05:30] <nickrud> compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:30] <ajhtiredwolf> pabix, nickrud glitsj16 where can i get it?
[05:30] <pabix> ajhtiredwolf, you're lucky, everyone wants to answer you
[05:30] <nickrud> ajhtiredwolf see above :)
[05:30] <glitsj16> :)
[05:30] <ajhtiredwolf> I know.. that never happens haha :p
[05:30] <ManualOverDozer> smit , you still there ?
[05:30] <nickrud> hey, it's low hanging fruit, I always go after that stuff
[05:30] <ajhtiredwolf> I believe I do have that installed one moment
[05:30] <pabix> wolv, ?
[05:30] <ManualOverDozer> smit i am cooking dinner, so it may take me a min to get back to you
[05:31] <wolv> pabix, http://paste.ubuntu.com/29852/
[05:31] <ajhtiredwolf> Some as advanced esktop effects settings ccsm?
[05:31] <harpreet> n-iCe_: try cd /usr/bin go there let me know when u are there
[05:31] <smit> i am restarting now
[05:31] <nickrud> ajhtiredwolf yes, smame app
[05:31] <unavailable> ccsm = compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:31] <pabix> wolv, ok. Now you will have to edit your file /etc/fstab (you know how to do that with a text editor?
[05:31] <ManualOverDozer> smit ok
[05:32] <pabix> in root mode of course
[05:32] <wolv> pabix, is it gedit /etc/fstab?
[05:32] <gavin2u> sudo
[05:32] <pabix> gksudo gedit
[05:32] <weretac0> nickrud: how would I change that?
[05:33] <ajhtiredwolf> nickrud, weird, its actualy enabled. Perhaps i have to set it to work when the mouse is moved to the corner some how?
[05:33] <mewshi> god damn >.<
[05:33] <weretac0> current line
[05:33] <unavailable> !ohmy
[05:33] <weretac0> in fstab
[05:33] <pabix> You will add this line: UUID=c9ef4863-a6d9-4679-8459-9f63b567bb9d /media/my_partition auto rw,user,noauto,noatime,exec 0 0
[05:33] <ajhtiredwolf> nickrud, never mind got it :0
[05:33] <harpreet> n-iCe_: you there in /usr/bin?
[05:33] <ajhtiredwolf> Thank you pabix nickrud
[05:33] <weretac0> ./dev/sdb1	/media/IOMEGA_HDD ntfs-3g users
[05:33] <mewshi> I use dhclient, and it works for about 30 seconds, then it cuts back again :(
[05:33] <pabix> sorry, this was for wolv : You will add this line: UUID=c9ef4863-a6d9-4679-8459-9f63b567bb9d /media/my_partition auto rw,user,noauto,noatime,exec 0 0
[05:34] <Amun> hey admins... alisasexy is spamming.
[05:34] <harpreet> mewshi, give it statis address through knetworkmanager
[05:34] <harpreet> static*
[05:34] <pabix> then you run : mkdir /media/my_partition
[05:34] <pabix> with sudo
[05:34] <pabix> and upon remounting your partition, it should be there, and writeable
[05:34] <nickrud> weretac0 hm, the sad thing is I don't have an ntfs partition to compare to. A sec while I refresh memory.  What version of ubuntu are you using?
[05:36] <weretac0> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ntfs-3g/+bug/205081
[05:36] <weretac0> i am using 8.04
[05:36] <weretac0> yeah
[05:36] <nickrud> weretac0 ah, you've answered your own question with those bugs I think.
[05:37] <Pav5088>  /j #kolab
[05:37] <weretac0> hrm.. I think I can upgrade ntfs-3g
[05:37] <Pav5088> oops
[05:37] <weretac0> now.. to try that :p
[05:37] <wolv> pabix, my_partition replace with /sda3?
[05:38] <wolv> and just add that line?
[05:38] <pabix> wolv, you name it how you want
[05:38] <wolv> k
[05:38] <pabix> but the directory must exist, and it will be mounted there
[05:38] <mewshi_> ok
[05:38] <magic_ninja> is there a program out there that will monitor my hardware temps, etc like gkrellm but output the results
[05:39] <R0b0t1> Is there a way I can start up in text only mode?
[05:39] <ManualOverDozer> magic_nija yes there is, but, your motherboard or hardware must have temp sensors for them to work
[05:39] <mewshi_> i'm getting really pissed off here.  I want my wireless to work properly, and if i can't get more than 30 seconds out of it, then that is NOT working properly
[05:39] <nickrud> weretac0 yeah, you can try that, or using prevu to backport from intrepid
[05:39] <smit> FINALLY!
[05:39] <nickrud> !prevu weretac0
[05:39] <nickrud> !prevu | weretac0
[05:39] <harpreet> n-iCe_: try cd /usr/bin go there let me know when u are there
[05:39] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi , have you tried a staic IP  and manually set your card ?
[05:40] <smit> ManualOverDozer, it was the bios!!!
[05:40] <ManualOverDozer> smit, very good
[05:40] <wolv> pabix, I'll just log off and try
[05:40] <smit> ManualOverDozer, i can finally copy and burn my vista disc!
[05:40] <weretac0> i should be okay updating from source
[05:40] <mewshi_> can someone please help me fix my wireless?
[05:40] <smit> ManualOverDozer, linux is just too complicated
[05:40] <weretac0> came from gentoo so i'm used to compiling stuff
[05:40] <smit> ManualOverDozer, thanks for the help
[05:41] <weretac0> smit: linux is just a great MMO :)
[05:41]  * nickrud crosses fingers at weretac0
[05:41] <ManualOverDozer> smit , believe me when i tell you, i have went through hell in the past with Ubuntu/Linux, but now, all is much clearer
[05:41] <pabix> smit, it is only different
[05:41] <magic_ninja> ManualOverDozer, they do
[05:41] <ManualOverDozer> smit , it is my pleasure to help anyone, with anything
[05:41] <ManualOverDozer> smit and, youre welcome
[05:41] <smit> pabix, i dont like the difference
[05:41] <joshual> hey folks, anyone know where there is a joomla installation (on ubuntu) howto?
[05:41] <smit> it took 2 hours and 41 minutes, but finally!
[05:42] <mewshi_> Someone, please, help me out here
[05:42] <donkdonk> how do i make sure debconf does not run when i ujse apt-get?
[05:42] <pabix> smit, yes, but when you get used to the possibilities with Linux, you discover what being efficient means
[05:42] <smit> time to get a beer
[05:42] <pabix> time to makan some 北京饺子
[05:42] <hillwolf> hi,i have installed ubuntu 8.04 on vmware 6.0,can i use 3d in ubuntu?
[05:42] <nickrud> joshual https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Joomla
[05:43] <smit> pabix, i will retry this another time, when more hardware support is available, and our household isnt heavily reliant upon windows
[05:43] <mewshi_> could someone please help me out here?  I've been *trying* to get it to work
[05:43] <nickrud> hillwolf no
[05:43] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi
[05:43] <weretac0> whats the problem?
[05:43] <harpreet> hillwolf: is it 64 bit or 32
[05:43] <hillwolf> nickrud ok,thank y
[05:43] <pabix> wolv, I will soon go for my lunch
[05:43] <tovella> joshual: there may also be a video on category5.tv ...use the search bar for joomla.
[05:43] <prymal> mewshi_: what's the problem?!
[05:43] <smit> and to think, all of this because my other laptop doesnt have a dvd burner
[05:43] <wolv> k
[05:43] <pabix> is it working?
[05:43] <harpreet> hillwolf: wat 3d are you talking abt? desktop effects?
[05:43] <hillwolf> harpreet 32
[05:44] <hillwolf> yes
[05:44] <harpreet> hillwolf:  yes you can
[05:44] <smit> cya later :) (actually never, im leaving the linux world)
[05:44] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi , wireless on Ubuntu can be seemingly difficult
[05:44] <wolv> pabix, I tried
[05:44] <hillwolf> really
[05:44] <wolv> its automounting
[05:44] <mewshi_> I said it not even 10 minutes ago
[05:44] <hillwolf> i try it now,thanks
[05:44] <nickrud> harpreet vmware 6 supports hardware access to video?
[05:44] <wolv> but still cant create folders
[05:44] <mewshi_> My wireless card (bcm4318) refuses to work consistently
[05:44] <alsryth> all: I believe mewshi_ is experiencing an issue where his wireless connection stops working after about 30 seconds.
[05:44] <mewshi_> Yeah, that would be about it
[05:44] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi , what is your signal strength ?
[05:44] <mewshi_> no, it's not the signal strength
[05:44] <mysticdarkhack> hey all
[05:44] <pabix> wolv, there must be some options to set… I leave it to some other person… sorry!
[05:44] <harpreet> nickrud hes taking abt 3d desktop effects n if u hv right driver ,then ya
[05:45] <wolv> k no prob
[05:45] <mysticdarkhack> Sa, what is hardy heron default theme?
[05:45] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi signal strength is important too.
[05:45] <pabix> Have a nice day, everybody
[05:45] <wolv> thanks for help :)
[05:45] <mewshi_> It is not the signal strength!
[05:45] <pabix> or night, I dont know
[05:45] <nickrud> harpreet as a general rule, virtualization hasn't supported 3d video drivers. I'm open to the idea the vmware 6 does, I haven't investigated but I'd be really pleasantly suprised
[05:45] <weretac0> ok
[05:45] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi sometimes the smallest things seemd to make no differene, in all actuallity, they do.
[05:45] <weretac0> it mounts now
[05:45] <weretac0> but i don't have permission to view the contents :p
[05:45] <ajhtiredwolf> nickrud, hey is there a way to make the scale apply to minimized windows as well?
[05:46] <mewshi_> IT IS NOT THE GOD-DAMNED STRENGTH, I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE.
[05:46] <alsryth> mewshi: is there a microwave oven, cordless phone or any other devices which may use the 2.4ghz frequency close by?
[05:46] <donkdonk> how do i make sure debconf does not run when i use apt-get?
[05:46] <mysticdarkhack> anyone?
[05:46] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi , how familiar are you with Ubuntu ?
[05:46] <nickrud> ajhtiredwolf not sure,
[05:46] <mewshi_> Not very, I just came from sabayon
[05:46] <tovella> mysticdarkhack: i believe it's called "Human"
[05:46] <joshual> thx tovella, nickrud
[05:47] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi, just as alsrth said, simple things may make all the difference, like cell phones, cordless devices, and antyhing that can effect the 2.4ghz band
[05:47] <nickrud> ajhtiredwolf not that I see either
[05:47] <tovella> joshual: no problem.
[05:47] <mewshi_> It's something in ubuntu, because nothing external to the linux distribution has changed.
[05:47] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi , have you tried staic IP with manual settings ?
[05:48] <mewshi_> I can't do that, because I'm all over the place through out the day
[05:48] <tovella> gotta get some sleep...  goodnight, all.
it is really, since there are three human theme and sort of forot which is the default after returning to ubuntu agian.
[05:48] <weretac0> hrm. ok
[05:48] <weretac0> if root mounts it
[05:48] <weretac0> i'm okay
[05:48] <ajhtiredwolf> nickrud, grrr :p, thats too bad.
[05:48] <mewshi_> can someone just help me with the damn troubleshooting?  ugh, that's all I want help with
[05:48] <ajhtiredwolf> nickrud, do you use avant window manager?
[05:49] <nickrud> ajhtiredwolf no, just a transparent panel
[05:49] <tovella> mysticdarkhack: i don't think i changed mine. ...it's set for "Human".
[05:49] <alsryth> mewshi: is there a possibility your DHCP lease expires on your access point after 30 seconds?
[05:49] <nickrud> ajhtiredwolf I use very little eye candy, mostly scale and expo
[05:49] <mewshi_> It says something in excess of 36000
I see, thanks
[05:50] <alsryth> mewshi: what speed / protocol are you connecting with?
[05:50] <ajhtiredwolf> nickrud, i love the eye candy. I would use a mac if i could stand their interface hah
[05:50] <donkdonk> i cant believe no one knows this...
[05:50] <mewshi_> 802.11G @ 54
[05:51] <AzMoo> Hey, can I ask JeOS questions here?
[05:51] <alsryth> mewshi: is wireless security enabled on the connection?  i.e.) WEP, WPA2 etc...
[05:52] <harpreet> AzMoo jeOS?
[05:52] <ajhtiredwolf> Does anyone use the avant window manager? and know allot about it
[05:52] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi 's  card bcm4138
[05:53] <AzMoo> harpreet: Ubuntu JeOS (Just enough Operating System). It's supposedly optimized for virtualization tasks.
[05:53] <mewshi_> UGH!
[05:53] <ManualOverDozer> alsryth how long have you been using linux ?
[05:53] <harpreet> ofcourse its related to linux AzMoo , i believe
[05:53] <mewshi_> Ok, this is getting VERY frustrating
[05:54] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi i can understand, it used to do the same thing to me
[05:54] <ManualOverDozer> used to
[05:54] <mewshi_> I just want the damn wireless to work
[05:54] <mewshi_> well, how did you fix it ManualOverDozer
[05:54] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi staic IP and manual settings
[05:54] <mewshi_> I can't do that
[05:55] <ManualOverDozer> why not ?
[05:55] <mewshi_> because I don't just use my network -_-
[05:55] <mewshi_> Why can't you just help me get it to work as well as it did on sabayon?
[05:55] <ManualOverDozer> you mean, you are unfamiliar with the settings ?
[05:55] <AzMoo> harpreet: Yeah, I just thought there might be a channel dedicated to it.
[05:55] <ahorner> I just restarted now i cant move any windows because the menu bar at the top is gone
[05:55] <mewshi_> I use networks where I DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THAT STUFF
[05:55] <ManualOverDozer> well first, you have o calm down. frsutration clouds the mind
[05:56] <mewshi_> well, ffs, i said it won't work
[05:56] <mewshi_> it must be something about ubuntu
[05:56] <debian_akroyd> good evening all
[05:56] <mewshi_> because sabayon worked *just* fine
[05:56] <ahorner> !doesn't work | mewshi_
[05:56] <alsryth> manualoverdozer : about 15 minutes - since I joined this channel.  Haven't used a *nix OS in years, until today.
[05:56] <debian_akroyd> sabayan :-&
[05:56] <ahorner> luls
[05:56] <debian_akroyd> sabayan (from experience) is for super computers
[05:56] <debian_akroyd> imho
[05:57] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi, if you need help, you first must accept it
[05:57] <mewshi_> well, your 'help' is useless for me
[05:57] <harpreet> mweshi, do u check the strength of the signal?
[05:57] <mewshi_> i have said that
[05:57] <mewshi_> FFS it isn't the signal strength
[05:57] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi you will have to have someone else help you
[05:57] <mewshi_> it's something in ubuntu
[05:57] <alsryth> mewshi_: does your access point cycle WEP keys are say - 30 second intervals?
[05:57] <ahorner> I just restarted now i cant move any windows because the menu bar at the top is gone and awn won't start
[05:57] <mewshi_> no, i was running sabayon just this morning, ffs
[05:58] <nickrud> !attitude | mewshi_ (and patience, the right people are not always around)
[05:58] <mewshi_> well, if you're gonna offer me 'help' you should listen to me
[05:58] <nomad727> !ndiswrapper | mewshi_
[05:58] <mewshi_> no
[05:58] <[[cEuWe_fZz_yMM]> gfgfgfgfg
[05:58] <mewshi_> the b43 driver worked fine before
[05:58] <mewshi_> and now it doesn't
[05:58] <nickrud> [[cEuWe_fZz_yMM] don't do that here
[05:58] <sagematt> Good day.
[05:59] <ManualOverDozer> listening...
[05:59] <ahorner> I just restarted now i cant move any windows because the menu bar at the top is gone and awn won't start
[05:59] <magic_ninja> what are some reasons my cpu might cycle down when its needed (ie in css my cpu goes from 90-99% usages where it should be down to like 37 and such caushing css to lag)
[05:59] <sagematt> Question: I installed PCManFM to test it in one of my user accounts, but now it's set as the default file manager. How do I change back to Nautilus=
[05:59] <nickrud> ahorner try   alt-f2 compiz --replace
[05:59] <debian_akroyd> ahorner: if you are using emerald, kill it and go back to metacity
[05:59] <nomad727> ahorner: in an xterm gnome-panel --restart
[05:59] <coatman> mewshi: have you installed the drivers for Ubuntu or just referring to Sabayan (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=190177)
[05:59] <debian_akroyd> ahorner: or just use metacity --replace until you can fix the problem
[06:00] <dethray> Anyone know of a good prog that'll keep track of wireless networks you've been on and automatically connect to them when you are in range?
[06:00] <coatman> mewshi: for ndiswrapper if you haven't tried that
[06:00] <debian_akroyd> debian_akroyd: is afk
[06:00] <glitsj16> mewshi: you probably already looked into using wicd as an alternative to network manager ? if not, there'a a (long) thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=587010 you might be interested in
[06:00] <ahorner> @debian_akroyd thanks, that works for now
[06:00] <ahorner> hmm
[06:00] <ManualOverDozer> dethray , you can make scripts to do that, but unfortunately i have no access to mine atm
[06:00] <mewshi_> ugh... why did i even bother installing this... you people seem to think everyone's a damned idiot... I know that the problem is somewhere within ubuntu, and that should have been enough for you to *stop* telling me to check the strength
[06:01] <amenado> mewshi_-> just an fyi.. the infamouse bcm43xx chips is very difficult animal to tame
[06:01] <ahorner> when i do compiz --replace, i get Checking for Xgl: not present.
[06:01] <ahorner> Detected PCI ID for VGA: 02:00.0 0300: 1002:7142 (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
[06:01] <ahorner> Checking for texture_from_pixmap:
[06:01] <ahorner>  then it quits
[06:01] <nickrud> dethray NetworkManager ;)
[06:01] <mewshi_> amenado: it worked just dandy on sabayon.  I had to install ONE THING, and it worked just fine
[06:01] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi , i had been in the same shoes as you, so dont think noone has gone through it
[06:01] <mewshi_> well, i can't do the manual ip thing
[06:01] <mewshi_> I want it to work as intended
[06:02] <Dragoncorp> anyone know why hardy herron - server ed. gives errors on install in virtual pc 2007
[06:02] <ahorner> i miss my wobbly windows :'-(
[06:02] <ManualOverDozer> mewshi , and i will admit, it was Ultra_Frustrating, just so you know, youre not the only one
[06:02] <coatman> mewshi: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=424994
[06:02] <amenado> mewshi_-> you have not been assisting lots of people in this channel, that chip based on my experience here, is one of the most difficult one to make work..if you have made work you are amongst the few exceptions
[06:02] <mewshi_> it worked out of the box almost on another distribution
[06:03] <mewshi_> so the problem lies not with the chip
[06:03] <Dragoncorp> anyone know how to get rid of the error when you hit install on ubuntu 8 on virtual pc 2007
[06:03] <debian_akroyd> debian_akroyd: is back
[06:03] <coatman> mewshi: from my experience Ubuntu doesn't work well with wireless which hopefully they will fix in a newer release.  A card I could never get working in Ubuntu worked fine without a change in OpenSUSe
[06:03] <ahorner> @debian_akroyd that at least got it so i can move my windows
[06:04] <nomad727> mewshi_: use ndiswrapper see if problem's gone 3 simple steps. mines a bcm94311 only ndiswrapper works as apps,libraries upgrade in distro's mileage varys in past bcm43xx and b43 worked,but not anymore
[06:04] <ahorner> @debian_akroyd but when i do compiz --replace to get them back, it says checking for xlg: not present then something else then quits
[06:04] <ManualOverDozer> coatman , you sure have that right. its tricky to use wireless on Ubuntu, but it will work, given the effort
[06:04] <nickrud> and my BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01) has worked flawlessly since feisty
[06:05] <murlidhar> hi all
[06:05] <debian_akroyd> ahorner: are you currently using xgl?
[06:05] <mewshi_> ok, well, how do i install it using ndiswrapper?
[06:05] <ManualOverDozer> ndiswrapper with a windows dll, used for the card seemed to be the general fix for the situation. i am sure there are many other ways
[06:05] <coatman> mewshi: well I did get the card working eventually using ndis, but it kept losing the connection with a high signal so it allowed me to explore another distrobution
[06:05] <ahorner> @debian_akroyd i dunno, how do i check? i mean, compiz was workin fine till i restarted
[06:05] <mewshi_> i am tired, i'm frustrated, I just lost ALL of my accounting work.  Could you please just link me to a guide?
[06:05] <crdlb> ahorner: what does 'glxinfo | grep direct' say?
[06:06] <debian_akroyd> ahorner: well one way that i know of is running sudo apt-get install xserver-xgl
[06:06] <coatman> ManualOverDozer: I didn't mean Mewshi in that last message
[06:06] <ManualOverDozer> coatman , once i got the card working properly on Ubuntu, the speed was double that of the windows counterpart
[06:06] <ahorner> debian: hold plz
[06:06] <ManualOverDozer> same card
[06:06] <debian_akroyd> ok
[06:06] <murlidhar> i am trying to compile bmpanel from source . ./configure shows no dependency problem but sudo make shows a lot of problems and i am not able to install it
[06:06] <ahorner> @crdlb it is just hanging
[06:06] <crdlb> ahorner: you don't want Xgl
[06:06] <mewshi_> ugh...
[06:07] <debian_akroyd> crdlb: is xgl out of date now?
[06:07] <crdlb> ahorner: your video driver seems to be very broken then. Pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:07] <crdlb> debian_akroyd: yes
[06:07] <coatman> ManualOverDozer: May have been, but getting it working in the first place is still more difficult than some other distros I've tried
[06:07] <nickrud> mewshi_ I wish I had an answer. Like I said, I don't know much about wireless, mainly because it just Works for Me™
[06:07] <mewshi_> so, could someone help me find a modern guide to getting it to work with ndiswrapper?
[06:07] <coatman> Mewshi: I sent you some links to the forums
[06:08] <coatman> mewshi: one had ndiswrapper instructions
[06:08] <nomad727> mewshi_: try this  http://www.blog.highub.com/linux/ubuntu-hardy-broadcom-wireless-setup/ i had to blacklist other bcm drivers also
[06:08] <sagematt> Question: I installed PCManFM to test it in one of my user accounts, but now it's set as the default file manager in each one of my user accounts. How do I change back to Nautilus?
[06:08] <amenado> !ndiswrapper | mewshi_->
[06:08] <ManualOverDozer> !ndiswrapper
[06:08] <McShane> mewshi_, there is also auto-ndiswrapper: https://launchpad.net/auto-ndiswrapprer
[06:08] <McShane> whoops
[06:08] <ahorner> @crdlb it is all like chinese characters
[06:09] <McShane> https://launchpad.net/auto-ndiswrapper is the correct URL
[06:09] <harpreet> mweshi make sure your drivers are disabled are they?
[06:09] <PrimoTurbo> Does anyone know any driver simulators for linux? Not racing but just driving a car.
[06:09] <ahorner> @crdlb what do i do then?
[06:09] <ahorner> @primoturbo sounds fun
[06:10] <l3d> for the love of linux I need help with nfs or somthing
[06:10] <debian_akroyd> PrimoTurbo: You could always look through the add remove software (on gnome idk about kde)
[06:10] <crdlb> ahorner: how did you open your Xorg.0.log?
[06:11] <ahorner> @crdlb sudo gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:11] <PrimoTurbo> is there a good site that lists games for linux?
[06:11] <crdlb> ahorner: pastebin it anyway
[06:11] <harpreet> primoturbo try ur own synaptic
[06:11] <ahorner> crdlb: i tried, it froze ff
[06:12] <PrimoTurbo> I dont use ubuntu
[06:12] <dunnen> anyone know any good programming forums?
[06:12] <PrimoTurbo> I use arch but, even ubuntu repos are quite limited
[06:12] <crdlb> ahorner: it really looks chinese?
[06:12] <davidm> I'm switching from another Distro and had bad 'luck' with its update manager.  Is there a consensus on whether to use "Update Manager" or not (brand new PC w/ 8.04.1 desktop from .iso)?
[06:12] <debian_akroyd> PrimoTurbo:  you could always use google linux to find driving games
[06:12] <ahorner> crdlb: yeah and other special characters.
[06:13] <crdlb> ahorner: try installing pastebinit and using that
[06:13] <debian_akroyd> PrimoTurbo: thats what i used to do when i was into linux gaming
[06:13] <PrimoTurbo> I tried
[06:13] <ahorner> crdlb: theres nothing legible you could get anyway
[06:13] <debian_akroyd> PrimoTurbo: nothing?
[06:14] <ahorner> is there any way to disable the leave and enter alerts?
[06:14] <murlidhar>  i am trying to compile bmpanel from source . ./configure shows no dependency problem but sudo make shows a lot of problems and i am not able to install it
[06:15] <murlidhar> http://nsf.110mb.com/bmpanel/ is the link
[06:15] <bazzie> davidm, what distro
[06:15] <debian_akroyd> oh thats the thing i dislike about source code sometimes. some programs are coded around older or newer kernels and wont work on the kernel you have installed...
[06:16] <Uplink> can someone help me install SARA please?
[06:16] <davidm> bazzie: I'm coming from openSUSE 10.3 and now using the latest Ubuntu desktop (can't remember the "name" of this current Ubuntu version!)
[06:17] <debian_akroyd> davidm: ubuntu hardy heron
[06:17] <bazzie> davidm, would that be Hardy Heron 8.04?
[06:17] <debian_akroyd> i think i spelled heron right
[06:17] <murlidhar> debian_akroyd: did i hear opensource is freedom?
[06:17] <davidm> Sounds 'bout right!
[06:17] <genii> Uplink: Do you have the original install disks?
[06:17] <Uplink> genii, disks? what disks?
[06:17] <debian_akroyd> murlidhar: opensource is free as in beer as in freedom
[06:17] <AzMoo> OK, so I need to install the VMWare Tools on Ubuntu JeOS, but all of the modules fail compiling with all these different errors. Unknown symbols and so forth. Is there something I'm missing there? The tools are a pretty crucial part.
[06:17] <davidm> So is "Update Manager" a good thing in Hardy Heron?
[06:17] <l3d> is there a way to clean my install with out reinstalling it
[06:18] <cypha> two main things...1 my wireless doesn't work (i have a broadcom 43xx and i've done like 3 or 4 completely different fixes that have availed to nothing), and 2 when i resume from hibernate, my screen stays black, including no backlight (so how do i stop this from happening, besides ctrl+alt+f1, ctrl+alt+f7)
[06:18] <debian_akroyd> murlidhar: freedom to do what ever you wish with the building blocks of the program that you desire
[06:18] <cypha> if i can borrow someone for a few moments to tell me why this is even happening and how to fix it, i'd be very grateful
[06:18] <debian_akroyd> in otherwords, free dom to edit programs that you want to edit
[06:18] <debian_akroyd> or do what ever you want to them
[06:18] <debian_akroyd> make them more cooler
[06:18] <bazzie> davidm, might want to learn command line (apt-get) as it is very efficient; also synaptic package manager, update manager simply notifies you of updates though you can configure when and how it does that
[06:18] <debian_akroyd> more secure
[06:18] <genii> Uplink: Sorry, thought you said CATIA
[06:18] <debian_akroyd> fix bugs yourself
[06:19] <Uplink> can someone help me install SARA(Security Auditor's Research Assistant) please?
[06:19] <murlidhar> debian_akroyd: that's why i am tryin to compile it since it doesn't have any debian package
[06:19] <davidm> bazzie - is there any benefit in using it right after a clean install?
[06:19] <debian_akroyd> murlidhar: have you read the documentation included with the source code? or did i not provide any
[06:20] <debian_akroyd> debian_akroyd: is afk
[06:20] <McShane> cypha, have you tried auto-ndiswrapper?
[06:20] <McShane> I don't know if it will fix your problem, but it may be worth a shot
[06:20] <bazzie> davidm, generally making sure your sources repositories are set correctly (system admin software sources) then sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade (from gnome-terminal) will do you right
[06:20] <ezlo> i need help ;___;
[06:20] <afallenhope> Anyone know how to disable echo REQUEST/REPLy/
[06:21] <Uplink> can someone help me install SARA(Security Auditor's Research Assistant) please?
[06:21] <ahorner> is there anyway to broadcast music to the internets with rythmbox?
[06:21] <dunnen> anyone know any good programming forums?
[06:21] <murlidhar> debian_akroyd: i did and the ./configure didn't give me any errors
[06:21] <bazzie> davidm, if you are using 8.04.1 then it will be quite up to date already, with the ssl vulnerability already fixed.
[06:21] <Uplink> whats ./configure for?
[06:21] <ahorner> dunnen: what language
[06:21] <ezlo> I have two hard drives, and I want to be able to use them both without having to constantly disconnect them and stuff
[06:21] <debian_akroyd> debian_akroyd: is back
[06:21] <ezlo> Kind of like dual-booting
[06:22] <murlidhar> debian_akroyd: therefore , there should not be any dependency problem
[06:22] <davidm> bazzie - May I ask one more, is there a site or list that has the "good" repositories (or are they 'pre-installed')?
[06:22] <debian_akroyd> murlidhar: ive had that happen too where the ./configure checks out, but the code is built around the old kernel
[06:22] <debian_akroyd> and some old kernel features that the program requires are not implemented in the current kernel
[06:22] <ahorner> dunnen: what language
[06:22] <McShane> Uplink, have a look at this page: http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[06:22] <bazzie> davidm, the standard ubuntu repos; you can /msg ubottu repos for more info and a link
[06:22] <torenhonig> Uplink: its kinda like preping it to compile
[06:23] <debian_akroyd> murlidhar: i believe there is an ubuntu developer room here that you could go to get developer level help
[06:23] <rivitingone> can anyone suggest a good ATI video driver that can support openGL?
[06:23] <McShane> Uplink, the guide is a little out of date, but it's worked fine for me
[06:23] <AzMoo> ezlo: why don't you just dual boot?
[06:23] <davidm> bazzie - do I enter that in my IRC client or on a website (can you say GREEN!)?
[06:23] <debian_akroyd> rivitingone: fglrx driver
[06:23] <murlidhar> Uplink: it is a script that checks the dependencies that are required for installing an application from source .
[06:23] <Uplink> McShane, well... SARA doesnt install through package man
[06:24] <bazzie> davidm, if you ever want to manually adjust the repos you can do so via gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[06:24] <ezlo> but i have a genuine vista in the other
[06:24] <murlidhar> Uplink: it is usually package with the source file
[06:24] <bazzie> davidm, here in irc
[06:24] <ezlo> i want to use it for games and things
[06:24] <Uplink> I cant install SARA http://www.linux.com/articles/51230 :(
[06:24] <McShane> Uplink, the guide covers all the installation methods -- look just a wee bit closer at the table of contents
[06:24] <rivitingone> just tried that, I can't get over 800 X 600 :( when I rebooted it came up with some error, asked me to choose drivers and then here I am
[06:24] <murlidhar> debian_akroyd: any idea what the channel is for ubuntu developers
[06:24] <davidm> bazzie - cool! Thanks for all this!
[06:25] <bazzie> debian_akroyd, #ubuntu-devel is not a support channel
[06:25] <ahorner> is there anyway to broadcast music to the internets with rythmbox?
[06:25] <bazzie> davidm, no problem :)
[06:25] <debian_akroyd> murlidhar: #ubuntu-devel
[06:25] <Uplink> McShane, i done everything on the README file and then i run with an error on "make"
[06:25] <debian_akroyd> bazzie: thanks
[06:25] <murlidhar> debian_akroyd: thanks

[06:25] <Overand> rsync (going over ssh) keeps dying while transferring htis large (80 gig) file - is there a way i can make it automatically resue rather than re-triggering it by hand?
[06:26] <mewshi_> fuck it.  screw ubuntu.
[06:26] <ezlo> rofl
[06:26] <ezlo> anyway
[06:26] <debian_akroyd> murlidhar: actually hold up..#ubuntu-devel is not a support channel
[06:26] <debian_akroyd> FF
[06:26] <ManualOverDozer> oh well
[06:27] <ezlo> its just that my ubuntu hd has a ton of gb overall
[06:27] <debian_akroyd> bazzie: sorry
[06:27] <ezlo> while my vista hd has a pitiful 19 gigs
[06:27] <harpreet> mewshi_ !conduct
[06:27] <debian_akroyd> ezlo: typical vista...
[06:27] <ezlo> lol
[06:28] <Uplink> McShane, the guide u gave me is useless
[06:28] <harpreet> ezlo: u need more space where? in vista?
[06:28] <genii> Uplink: I'm running make on it right now, progressing OK so far
[06:28] <ezlo> yes
[06:28] <ezlo> i actually only have about one gig ;___;
[06:28] <abbagoo> hello
[06:28] <McShane> !volunteer | Uplink
[06:28] <Uplink> genii, u installing it? :D
[06:28] <McShane> bah
[06:28] <ezlo> my friend was telling me about this master/slave thing
[06:29] <ezlo> what is it?
[06:29] <Uplink> ok McShane
[06:29] <debian_akroyd> ezlo: simply type format c: LOL!
[06:29] <abbagoo> does anyone run ubuntu off a flash drive or flash card?
[06:29] <ezlo> lol
[06:29] <ezlo> Does anyone have guides on ATA connection thing
[06:29] <ahorner> abbago: its possible.
[06:29] <genii> Uplink: No, I just went and got it to see empirically whats involved
[06:29] <harpreet> ezlo move ur important stuff from in linux from the drive u want to somewhere else...and go to vista admin, disk mgmt and format the drive back to ntfs or something but i wud never give my linux space to microshit
[06:29] <genii> Uplink: Just choked
[06:29] <abbagoo> i would guess so, horner
[06:29] <Uplink> genii, im lost?
[06:30] <ezlo> ok
[06:30] <ezlo> someone explain to me how to do the master/slave method
[06:30] <genii> Uplink: Does it also choke for you right after leaving some SHA1 directory?
[06:30] <harpreet> ezlo <sigh>
[06:30] <Uplink> genii, it says make dir and some error
[06:30]  * ahorner rolls a fatty
[06:30] <debian_akroyd> ezlo: there are thousands of guides online that will explain that in clear detail
[06:31] <ezlo> ok
[06:31] <nomad727> Uplink: wireshark nmap other apps maybe?
[06:31] <ezlo> found one
[06:31] <ezlo> bye
[06:31] <ahorner> wireshark is cool.
[06:31] <Uplink> nomad727, i got those but i need SARA =]
[06:31] <debian_akroyd> k
[06:31] <ajax4> Does anyone know if there is a way to turn thumbnails on for only certain directories in Nautilus?
[06:31] <debian_akroyd> brb
[06:31] <debian_akroyd> debian_akroyd: is afk
[06:32] <Uplink> whats make for?
[06:32] <nomad727> Uplink: dunno you could try apt-build to resolve depends but not sure it'll actually build/work
[06:32] <ajax4> Maybe using gconf-editor or something?
[06:32] <Uplink> nomad727, no... u gotta do ./configure and then type make
[06:32] <hosk> Does 8.04 ship with AIGLX by default?
[06:33] <Uplink> genii, make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/uplink/sara-7.8.1/src/perl-pm/Digest-SHA1'
[06:34] <genii> Uplink: Yes, there
[06:34] <Uplink> genii, same...
[06:35] <Cebrimal> hello?
[06:36] <ramdoubler> lo
[06:36] <Cebrimal> hrm, lots of comin' and goin'
[06:36] <Cebrimal> hi
[06:36] <Cebrimal> :)
[06:36] <ramdoubler> ;-)
[06:36] <Cebrimal> don't suppose you know much about wine?
[06:36] <Uplink> genii, do u know if you gotta put it on /usr/local/.sara-xxxx/ ?
[06:37] <Idealist> hey
[06:37] <Idealist> does anybody here use ubuntu 64bit and audacious?
[06:37] <Idealist> im having a problem with it and alsa
[06:38] <debian_akroyd> debian_akroyd: is back
[06:38] <rivitingone> Anyone available to help with a graphics issue?
[06:38] <Cebrimal> You see, I was doing well with wine.  I had my World of Warcraft working, then I got my flash 8 working, then I got photoshop CS2 working.  i was a happy camper.  But then WoW stopped working.  I can only guess it has something to do with the other installs.  So, I was wondering if anybody knew a way to set up a second wine folder that was independent from my macromedia/adobe apps.
[06:39] <Cebrimal> What's the graphics issue?
[06:39] <mattchew> rivitingone: tried Envy?
[06:40] <genii> Uplink: Experimenting right now switching default shell it wants to bash from sh
[06:40] <bazzie> mattchew, envyng is supported, envy (gutsy) is not
[06:40] <Uplink> genii, i have no idea what u just said
[06:40] <evilbug> am i the only one having issues with the kernel update?
[06:40] <rivitingone> mattchew: I had done that but was getting a really irritating black strobe thing when I ran stuff. So I tried this fgl something something, the xorg one, and now I can't go past 800X600
[06:41] <cypha> can i borrow someone for a few moments, i have some quick questions...if they are familiar with broadcom, i'd be EVEN more happy!
[06:41] <torenhonig> manually configure your xorg.conf file
[06:41] <cartman-noob> what is a good irc client for ubuntu?
[06:41] <mattchew> do you mean xgl?
[06:41] <torenhonig> x-chat id say
[06:41] <genii> Uplink: nvm didn't work
[06:41] <rivitingone> mattchew: starts in low mode
[06:41] <Uplink> cartman-noob, x-chat iRC lol?
[06:42] <meoblast001> hi
[06:42] <meoblast001> how do i raise audio capture higher than max
[06:42] <blogi> wheres _2?
[06:42] <rivitingone> Can anyone explain where ubuntu saves video drivers or how to uninstall them?
[06:42] <torenhonig> oh ya
[06:42] <meoblast001> i have a quiet mic
[06:42] <Spyrorocks> Hi there
[06:42] <Spyrorocks> I have a question about ubuntu on a vista laptop
[06:43] <Uplink> meoblast001, gnome-alsamixer
[06:43] <Spyrorocks> It doesn't seem to allow the menubar to span the whole screen width
[06:43] <B00daW> http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php?topic=3343.msg35536
[06:43] <Uplink> meoblast001, sudo apt-get install gnmore-alsamixer
[06:43] <meoblast001> Uplink: have it as high as it goes
[06:43] <B00daW> Step 2:
[06:43] <B00daW> Settings->Compiler and debugger settings
[06:43] <blogi> how can i connect to lan using 2 lan cards?
[06:43] <B00daW> What the heck is he talking about?
[06:43] <Uplink> meoblast001, then there is no more i believe
[06:44] <rivitingone> Can anyone explain where ubuntu saves video drivers or how to uninstall them?
[06:44] <Spyrorocks> Is there a way for me to use different video drivers inside the livecd ubuntu hardy?
[06:44] <cypha> where is the Hardware Information under System, Preferences?
[06:44] <cypha> i don't see it there
[06:44] <legend2440> rivitingone: which video card?
[06:44] <cypha> or Device Manager
[06:44] <B00daW> I'm on Hardy Heron too.
[06:44] <rivitingone> Radeon X800
[06:44] <blogi> its too crowded here :(
[06:44] <Uplink> lol
[06:44] <rivitingone> legend2440: X800
[06:45] <CoolFox> would a 8800GT work in ubuntu?
[06:45] <B00daW> I'm trying to get MinGW working.
[06:45] <meoblast001> CoolFox: not out of the box
[06:45] <blogi> can anyone help me in my network problem? :(
[06:45] <mattchew> rivitingone: if you are on hardy then do sudo apt-get purge xserver-xgl
[06:45] <Uplink> genii, uplink@HP-Pavilion:~$ cat sara-7.8.1/docs/INSTALL
[06:45] <CoolFox> ironically, its the only avalible vid card that I have right now, and its total overkill for what I need.
[06:45] <meoblast001> CoolFox: it would ask you to go into safe graphics mode, you'd need to install the driver, then restart Xorg
[06:45] <mattchew> and then use EnvyNG to install the proprietary ati driver
[06:45] <cartman-noob> I guess I will not have sound from a creative X-Fi card? Should I put effort in installing drivers?
[06:46] <sluxor> whats the best practice for locking down the linux box so there is absolutely no write access to it? I want to setup a PC for tourists to access free in a cafe but make it so it's just like running a live distribution off the CD, no write access apart from what's in the RAM that gets wiped upon reboot. Should I do it in /etc/fstab or make the users home folder read-only and owned by someone else?
[06:46] <legend2440> rivitingone: open system>administration>hardware drivers is there a ATI box there to enable?
[06:46] <ManualOverDozer> yes, stop xorg then restart it after
[06:46] <CoolFox> the other vid card i have is an ATI RAGE 128, but... well, its PCI.
[06:46] <CoolFox> er, AGP.
[06:47] <blogi> anyone?
[06:47] <CoolFox> my mobo doesn't have AGP.
[06:47] <CoolFox> only PCI-e
[06:47] <CoolFox> where would I get drivers for my 8800GT 512MB?
[06:47] <Shish> hey, how do i end a process -- specifically firefox,,?
[06:48] <rivitingone> ok going to restart, brb people :)
[06:48] <mattchew> Shish: killall firefox-bin
[06:48] <nomad727> Shish: killall firefox or xkill
[06:49] <Shish> mattchew: thanks a lot, really appreciate it
[06:49] <mattchew> Shish: or ya I guess its just killall firefox now
[06:49] <Shish> nomad727: thank you very much, appreciate it

[06:49] <harpreet> ok
[06:49] <Polygon89> Hello, i just upgraded to the latest kernel in the repos (-20) and now ubuntu wont even start up on that kernel, it doesnt even show the usplash screen...suggestions (besides using an older kernel which i know works)
[06:49] <evilbug> i updated the kernel today and now the load bar stops around 97% so my system won't load. what should i do?
[06:49] <meoblast001> evilbug: start it in recovery mode
[06:50] <evilbug> and?
[06:50] <meoblast001> evilbug: from grub push every button on the keyboard (thats how i do it) and then select recovery mode
[06:50] <mattchew> lol
[06:50] <meoblast001> evilbug: see what causes it to stop loading
[06:51] <evilbug> how do i _see_ what causes it?
[06:51] <evilbug> will it just display the issue?
[06:51] <evilbug> or do i have to type something in?
[06:51] <meoblast001> evilbug: it will not even use usplash
[06:51] <meoblast001> it will show a terminal
[06:51] <Polygon89> Hello, i just upgraded to the latest kernel in the repos (-20) and now ubuntu wont even start up on that kernel, it doesnt even show the usplash screen...when i start in recovery mode the last line before it freezes is 'checking hit instruction......ok"
[06:51] <meoblast001> what goes on behind the status bar
[06:51] <nomad727> evilbug: you can try using single splash=quiet verbose
[06:52] <rivitingone> sad face
[06:52] <nomad727> appended to kernel= line
[06:52] <kdb424> Hi. Is there a way to change the kubuntu loading screen to ubuntu?
[06:52] <nomad727> evilbug: add panic=5
[06:53] <hosk> I have an Nvidia card, and I installed Xgl. I understand that I don't need to have explicitly installed Xgl, if I uninstall it, do I need to do anything else to make sure the original Nvidia drivers take over?
[06:53] <mattchew> meoblast: if you can get to a terminal you should be able to look at the boot log
[06:53] <evilbug> kdb424- that's easy, just download an ubuntu splash from gnome-look.org and have that load up.
[06:53] <kdb424> evilbug: Thanks so much. I installed kibuntu and installed the gnome desktop, cause it's better. lol
[06:54] <nomad727> evilbug: or boot up live-cd check /var/log/boot.log? on the install
[06:54] <Polygon89> Hello, i just upgraded to the latest kernel in the repos (-20) and now ubuntu wont even start up on that kernel, it doesnt even show the usplash screen...when i start in recovery mode the last line before it freezes is 'checking hit instruction......ok"
