[06:59] <caglar> is ubuntuforums down?
[07:00] <Protostar> what mirrors?
[07:00] <Skaag> Thirsteh: I figured, so yes, "A" will do it.
[07:00] <wayward> user_ chmod 644 file
[07:00] <Thirsteh> Skaag, thanks again.
[07:00] <caglar> :)
[07:00] <Skaag> Thirsteh: my pleasure mate
[07:00] <khoda> so when i reboot i get 5 quick beeps. what's the first thing i should check?
[07:00] <user_> way: thx, i meant the whole system values though
[07:00] <jbroome> khoda: ram
[07:00] <user_> just like after a fresh install
[07:00] <Callahad> How much space is required to set up a full, local universe/multiverse/main/restricted repository for the release, security, backports, and updates?
[07:00] <cowbud> khoda: your motherboard manual
[07:00] <HiP_P> thanks bobbydd
[07:00] <commctrl> user_, why?
[07:01] <Seveas> khoda, the user manual of your motherboard ;)
[07:01] <wayward> user_: you mean the defaults or change permissions on a set of files?
[07:01] <caglar> I compiled the 2.6.17 kernel on my ubuntu machine but now I cant mount my second hdd when using the new kernel.
[07:01] <MagicFab> Seveas, isn' t there a way to /msg any newcomers instead of kicking them for just asking ? Seems no one ever reads that topic
[07:01] <caglar> anyone got an idea?
[07:01] <Skaag> khoda: display adapter is borked, or memory is not sitting properly in the slots
[07:01] <Seveas> Callahad, 200GB
[07:01] <Seveas> MagicFab, doesn't work - tried that
[07:01] <khoda> Skaag: what's a display adapter
[07:01] <srikanth> can any one tell what is a file roller..?
[07:01] <Skaag> khoda: those two are usually the problem (one of them)
[07:01] <user_> way: uhm the defaults on all files
[07:01] <cowbud> khoda: your video card
[07:01] <Skaag> khoda: the VGA card (nVidia / ATI / etc)
[07:01] <Callahad> Seveas: Hm... may just have to contribute a drive to the campus unix box, then :) thanks :)
[07:01] <khoda> oh
[07:01] <Seveas> MagicFab, /kick or /remove is the only way to get peoples attention
[07:02] <khoda> I had just installed Ubuntu, rebooted and used grub to get into windows then rebooted windows and this happened
[07:02] <paiiiiii> 'bash: make: command not found' - what shall i do if i dont have internet? (trying to install ethernet)
[07:02] <Seveas> !compiling > paiiiiii
[07:02] <tmccrary> apt-get install build-essential
[07:02] <Skaag> khoda: if you get away from the computer far enough, you will not hear any beeps anymore.
[07:02] <zazeem> is there a way to make xchat go to the sys tray?
[07:02] <tmccrary> that will get you make and everything else you need
[07:02] <zazeem> its not in options
[07:02] <Seveas> zazeem, apt-get install xchat-systray
[07:02] <khoda> Skaag: it just seems weird that it happened at the exact time i rebooted. feels like the software did it
[07:02] <zazeem> thnx
[07:03] <Skaag> khoda: does the screen show any text?
[07:03] <srikanth> what is ment by file roller??it is a p2p sharing??
[07:03] <Skaag> khoda: Or is it dark?
[07:03] <GreySim> zazeem, and if you don't like xchat-systray (I didn't, but I'm a bit picky) you can also look for a program called 'alltray'
[07:03] <wayward> user_: supposing your default permissions are 644
[07:03] <apokryphos> srikanth: no, it's the archive handler for GNOME
[07:03] <wayward> user_: and 755 for directories
[07:03] <zazeem> ok
[07:03] <cowbud> srikanth: it is a archiver like winrar or winzip
[07:03] <Skaag> khoda: Is it a laptop?
[07:03] <khoda> Skaag: no text
[07:03] <paiiiiii> tmccrary: "coult find package build-essentials"
[07:03] <khoda> Skaag: no
[07:03] <Seveas> paiiiiii, drop the s
[07:03] <Skaag> khoda: Is it an IBM or Dell computer?
[07:03] <Seveas> it's build-essential
[07:03] <khoda> Skaag: no , hand-made
[07:04] <user_> way: isnt there a command to set all values back to default system wide at once?
[07:04] <MagicFab> Seveas, tx
[07:04] <Skaag> khoda: strange then I have no idea why this would happen exactly after installing another operating system
[07:04] <paiiiiii> Seveas: no package found when im doing that.
[07:04] <srikanth> apokryphos, i am downloading a movie then which is the best option (Eaither open with file roller(or)save to desk)???
[07:04] <wayward> user_: find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;  && find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
[07:04] <Skaag> khoda: Disconnect it from the power, let it rest for 5 minutes without any power, then turn it on again
[07:04] <Skaag> khoda: maybe the power supply overheated
[07:04] <khoda> Skaag: thanks, will do
[07:04] <tmccrary> paiiiiii: sorry, it's build-essential
[07:04] <khoda> Skaag: okay
[07:04] <tmccrary>  apt-get install build-essential
[07:04] <user_> way: i mean there probably has to be one...or a way around it liek replacing a config file or something
[07:04] <wayward> user_: this will reset permissions for files and directories in the current dir. and below
[07:04] <jackson> hey guys I just installed the repo nvidia drivers after "sudo nvidia-driver --uninstall"ing some old drivers I had and now when I try to gdm start it comes up with the error (as part of a long log file): "Error: API mismach: the NVIDIA kernel module has the version 1.0-8762, but this X module has the version 1.0-8756." how do I correct this?
[07:05] <Skaag> khoda: and seveas was right, if you have the motherboard's manual, it says what X amounts of beep mean
[07:05] <doctormo> I've just made this for friend: http://www.postmaster.co.uk/fs/doctormo/Public/isocreate.tar.bz2 can someone else try it and see if it's useful or can be expanded (or redundent)
[07:05] <wayward> user_: but please use with care
[07:05] <paiiiiii> tmccrary: same.
[07:05] <user_> i might have messed something up badly and cant go throgh all the files
[07:05] <knubbe> anyone who knows whats wrong with the ubuntu services, mentioned in topic?
[07:05] <XVampireX> What's the estimate until everything is back up and working?
[07:05] <Skaag> khoda: so I would check if I were you, what 5 beeps mean
[07:05] <wayward> user_: each file/dir has its own set of permissions
[07:05] <user_> way: hm, ok ill google it up first
[07:05] <jackson> err "sudo nvidia-installer --uninstall", that is
[07:05] <Skaag> khoda: you said 5 right?
[07:05] <stefg> jackson: you're on 64-bit arne' you?
[07:05] <Seveas> knubbe, just that they're down for reasons beyond our control
[07:05] <khoda> Skaag: yep, ill check
[07:05] <wayward> user_:  your problem might lie someplace else.  What exactly do you need it for?
[07:05] <Skaag> khoda: good luck man
[07:05] <Aagni> hello al
[07:05] <user_> way: thats the problem...i cant possibly go through all of them manually
[07:05] <jackson> stefg: I have an AMD64 but I'm running a 32bit kernel
[07:05] <srikanth> apokryphos, i am downloading a movie then which is the best option (Eaither open with file roller(or)save to desk)???
[07:05] <wayward> I'm on full 64 :)
[07:06] <Skaag> i'm going to sleep
[07:06] <Seveas> srikanth, save
[07:06] <Skaag> good night people
[07:06] <Aagni> i am a first time linux user
[07:06] <Seveas> g'night Skaag
[07:06] <Aagni> i just installed it
[07:06] <Skaag> thanks Seveas :)
[07:06] <Skaag> seeya all tomorrow morning
[07:06] <srikanth> Seveas, thank u
[07:06] <ardchoille> Maybe they shouldn't have put everything on the same server?
[07:06] <jackson> stefg: the repo 2.6.15-26-386 kernel is what I'm using
[07:06] <wayward> user_: well you can type a command
[07:06] <Seveas> ardchoille, it's not all on the same server
[07:06] <Callahad> Aagni: Welcome to the fold :)
[07:06] <Seveas> the datacentre is down
[07:06] <wayward> user_: but how did you end up with bad permissions in the first place?
[07:06] <user_> way: not really i fear...i just checked some of my file rights after i ran through some problems and they seem to be strange
[07:06] <paiiiiii> tmccrary, Seveas: i dont have any internet connection and the package "build-essential" is not found.
[07:07] <user_> way: id like to know myself
[07:07] <stefg> jackson: we hab this issue a couple of times in here.. the nvidia-drivers in the repos are out of date
[07:07] <Seveas> paiiiiii, that package is on the cd
[07:07] <paiiiiii> Seveas: strange, 6.06? i cant find it :(
[07:07] <Aagni> Thanks Callahad
[07:07] <jackson> stefg: so I should remove those via apt and then install them manually again? does it matter which version I install manually?
[07:07] <wayward> user_: if you want to set 644 on files and 755 on directories, you have that command line above, but make sure that it is what you really want
[07:07] <Aagni> i need some help if someone can spare the time
[07:07] <tmccrary> hey, is the main us ubuntu mirror down?
[07:08] <wayward> user_: also make sure to read man chmod
[07:08] <Tonren> Hey guys, I'm getting a scary kdeinit: Aborting. bind() failed: permission denied error when I try to run Akregator under Xfce.  Any hints?
[07:08] <AlanL> Hi, anyone know of some dapper repo mirrors i can use whilst ubuntu's are down?
[07:08] <tmccrary> ah, so they are
[07:08] <Seveas> AlanL, just be patient
[07:08] <Aagni> oh, are repositories down?
[07:08] <azure_me> try the local mirrors
[07:08] <Mempf> yep
[07:08] <Aagni> i did ..
[07:08] <azure_me> us.archive.ubuntu.com
[07:08] <rsk> Aagni: yeah, topic
[07:08] <stefg> jackson: you could apt-get install build-essential linux-kernel-headers-`uname -r` and then get the driver from the nvidia-site and let it build a working module
[07:08] <tmccrary> they appear to be down, they have been down since last night
[07:08] <Aagni> oops :)
[07:08] <user_> way: allright quick question what should be the rights for /home?
[07:08] <azure_me> au.archive.ubuntu.com
[07:08] <phuzz> does ubuntu have that window manager switcher thing when you login or do you have to install that?
[07:08] <AlanL> would love to be, but just rebuilt my pc today and want to get it configured before i get back to work tomorrow.
[07:09] <wayward> user_: 755
[07:09] <knubbe> Seveas: should i be concerned since i run ubuntu webservers, or is the problem not ubuntu-specific?
[07:09] <paiiiiii> Seveas: can you show what i shall write in /etc/apt/sources.list to scan in CD?
[07:09] <azure_me> au.archive.ubuntu.com <-- this one saved my life!
[07:09] <user_> way: the default ones...and for /root?
[07:09] <stefg> jackson: bat watch out what /topic says :-)
[07:09] <AlanL> thanks azure_me
[07:09] <wayward> user_: same
[07:09] <Seveas> knubbe, it has nothing to do with Ubuntu
[07:09] <knubbe> Seveas: thank you.
[07:09] <Callahad> azure_me: And now a flood of #ubuntuians are going to wipe it off the net, aren't they? :)
[07:09] <AlanL> its the datacentre isn't it? yahoo's not loading right either
[07:09] <wayward> user_: you need to be careful with .*/ directories though
[07:10] <RonzO> a
[07:10] <Seveas> b
[07:10] <Bonez56> is anyone else having problems connecting to archive.ubuntu.com via apt-get?
[07:10] <Callahad> Bonez56: check the topic
[07:10] <secleinteer> yes
[07:10] <user_> way: thx i will look it up
[07:10] <Aagni> yes, i am too
[07:10] <RonzO> had Ronz logged on at home...just making sure i could write. =)
[07:10] <wayward> user_: ~/.gnupg/ should be 700
[07:10] <wayward> user_: good luck :)
[07:10] <secleinteer> damn gentoo users ddosed us ;)
[07:10] <Aagni> au mirror seems to be working fine
[07:10] <azure_me> oooops Callahad... not good
[07:10] <azure_me> :))
[07:10] <jasbur> any idea when ubuntu.com will be back up?
[07:10] <Seveas> jasbur, no
[07:10] <azure_me> then it will be down, Callahad, thanks to me
[07:10] <jasbur> bummer
[07:10] <tmccrary> so WHY are all these ubuntu services down?
[07:10] <secleinteer> come on every1, let's go ddos gentoo.org :-)
[07:11] <fiznut> It's gone forever ;(
[07:11] <Aagni> i have a wifi related question
[07:11] <jasbur> of course this is the day i had to re-install

[07:11] <fiznut> heh, picked a great day Jas
[07:11] <EvanCarroll> Confirmed, AU mirror working! Quick everyone change sourcs to use it, and take it down!
[07:11] <venk> mirrors.acm.jhu.edu is also running
[07:11] <doctormo> the lack of response leads me to believe it's not interesting... oh well
[07:11] <Seveas> gah
[07:11] <Aagni> my wifi connection seems to drop if not used for a couple of minutes
[07:11] <azure_me> this is bad... this is bad...
[07:11] <Aagni> or thats what i think
[07:11] <jbholman> http://filer.case.edu/wiki/eecs/ubuntu_mirror: at the bottom of page - look to section nearby ubuntu mirrors.  i am having success with some of these
[07:11] <wayward> au mirror will become /.ed :)
[07:11] <Callahad> venk: which makes me wonder if the U of M server is up... *off to check*
[07:12] <MagicFab> Seveas, perhaps specifically put in topic that repos too are down
[07:12] <mrstocks> Hi there, i have a little probleme with my Xfree  fglrx config, what ever resolution i put in the xorg.conf, it isnt parsed i removed all the other lines... anyclue where i can force a 1224x resolution ?
[07:12] <Seveas> MagicFab, won't help a bit - trust me
[07:12] <doctormo> tmccrary when was the last time you went to the microsoft website?
[07:12] <tmccrary> Saveas you douche bag

[07:13] <secleinteer> MASSIVE DDOS ATTACK!!! lol
[07:13] <fiznut> haha
[07:13] <[Wiebel] > are there any other wifi frontends like nm-applet
[07:13] <[Wiebel] > which do not work with NetworkManager
[07:13] <ACU> hey guys: I have installed Ubuntu 5.10 in powerpc - I wonder if I can update to 6.10 ? How to do it ?
[07:13] <AidyMole> I WANT TO INSTALL SCONS GOGGAMIT
[07:13] <Seveas> !upgrade > ACU
[07:13] <venk> UMN's is up

[07:13] <CrashProne> So um, I have a MS Sidewinder 6 button simple gamepad... heeelp meeee!!  It's detected as a 4 button 4 axis who-knows what that thinks it's pressing 2 buttons constantly!  Any ideas??
[07:13] <mrstocks> why do you ban everyone in here..
[07:13] <Seveas> !mouse
[07:13] <ubotu> Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[07:13] <EvanCarroll> Horray, who keeps kicking me
[07:13] <venk> mitchigan tech's is up

[07:13] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs with Broadcom Specifics at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Dapper
[07:13] <Seveas> CrashProne, --^
[07:13] <wayward> ACU: there are several howtos on that, but you'll have to wait for the repositories to come back online
[07:13] <farous> mrstocks: screen section
[07:14] <AidyMole> um
[07:14] <AidyMole> who is fixing the server fuck up
[07:14] <jbholman> http://ubuntu.cs.utah.edu/ubuntu is working
[07:14] <wayward> ACU: in the meantime, Google "upgrading dapper"
[07:14] <fiznut> Ted Stevens
[07:14] <venk> xmission's is up
[07:14] <AidyMole> repeat that please
[07:14] <Seveas> sigh
[07:15] <Seveas> apparently it's "let's behave like idiots day" today
[07:15] <lophyte> couple of servers go down and everyone goes nuts
[07:15] <azure_me> ouchie
[07:15] <mrstocks> farous yeap  i removed all the resolutions i didn't want.
[07:15] <Aagni> man .. too much noise in here
[07:15] <Mnabil> are ubuntu server alright ?!
[07:15] <lophyte> Mnabil: read the topic
[07:15] <CrashProne> Ehm, yeah I can't connect to the help stuff ubotu gave.. ^^;;
[07:15] <farous> mrstocks: xserver uses the first listed one as the default one if the monitor support it
[07:15] <ACU> OK so repositories for Ubuntu are down - I have to wait
[07:15] <venk> can apt currently use different servers as backups when primaries aren't available?
[07:15] <AlanL> seveas, take the irc site down to really scare people
[07:16] <fiznut> CrashProne, Ubuntu servers are down at the moment. It'll work when they come back online
[07:16] <paiiiiii> What line in "/etc/apt/sources.list" shall i add to cdrom as source
[07:16] <paiiiiii> ?
[07:16] <Seveas> CrashProne, remember it and use it when the servers are back
[07:16] <mrstocks> farous there is only one resolution, depth 24... and 1280x .. i removed all the others.
[07:16] <farous> mrstocks: post your xorg.conf file. you can also set it through dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:16] <paiiiiii> nvm
[07:16] <user_> way: sry, again but for which users should the 755 be set for?
[07:16] <mrstocks> oki where can i post it?
[07:16] <farous> !pastebin
[07:16] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[07:16] <mrstocks> oki
[07:16] <mrstocks> brb
[07:16] <mimithebrain> Seveas, do you know when approximatly the servers should be back on?
[07:16] <Seveas> mimithebrain, no
[07:17] <mimithebrain> oh ok. thanks :D
[07:17] <Seveas> when I know, you'll know it 5 seconds later
[07:17] <wayward> user_: 755 is the usual mode for all the home directories
[07:17] <mimithebrain> perfect! :)
[07:17] <Aagni> any wireless experts around?
[07:17] <user_> way: and for root as well you said?
[07:17] <azure_me> Seveas, it's a tough job, ain't it?
[07:17] <Seveas> azure_me, sometimes
[07:17] <wayward> user_: yeah
[07:17] <venk> think we need a list of running mirrors?
[07:17] <Seveas> Aagni, just ask your question
[07:17] <Bonez56> or just some patience :)
[07:18] <Bonez56> i'm sure it will be back
[07:18] <Seveas> venk, there is one ... on the wiki
[07:18] <wayward> user_: at least that's the default :)
[07:18] <Bonez56> go have a coffee :)
[07:18] <mrstocks_> Weird...
[07:18] <Seveas> Bonez56, HEAR HEAR!
[07:18] <[Wiebel] > there was some other wifi frontend tool
[07:18] <venk> the wiki is also down
[07:18] <[Wiebel] > I forgot the name
[07:18] <user_> way: hm, 7= user 5=group 5= others
[07:18] <Aagni> okie doke. My wireless connection drops after a few mins of non-usage
[07:18] <MagicFab> Seveas, I have blogged in french about the services bveing down... what else can us mere mortals do to get some info out ?
[07:18] <Aagni> i can figure out why
[07:18] <user_> way: i should have looked at this way earlier :|
[07:18] <tenco> is security.ubuntu.com down?
[07:18] <venk> yes
[07:18] <Aagni> ami mean i cant
[07:18] <mrstocks_> i can't goto a tty console now, i get No input signal... and i have to go back to X
[07:18] <Bonez56> the whole world is in a frenzy because the ubuntu server is down... :)
[07:18] <Seveas> MagicFab, not much
[07:19] <mimithebrain> I'd be curious to know what was the problem once it is fixed... :)
[07:19] <Aagni> only workaround i have found is to disable and re-enable the connection
[07:19] <epimeteo> forums are down too?
[07:19] <venk> yep
[07:20] <wayward> user_: do check your startup scripts, /etc/profile, /etc/bash/bashc for commands like 'umask 022'.  It should be 022.
[07:20] <doener_> does anybody know why?
[07:20] <jbroome> dns problem
[07:20] <doener_> thx
[07:20] <orpheus> so are both us.archive.ubuntu.com AND archive.ubuntu.com dow nown?
[07:20] <wayward> user_: also your ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bashrc
[07:20] <jbroome> dns problem
[07:20] <jbroome> orpheus: yes
[07:21] <vorbote> Hi, does anybody know how to shutup gnome-volume-manager (or pmount-hal) when there is a dm-crypt/Luks partition on disk? It tries to mount it as if it were a removable volume which it ibviously isn't.
[07:21] <mimithebrain> jbroome, I can resolve ubuntu.
[07:21] <orpheus> jbroome: thanks.
[07:21] <mrstocks_> now why am i only allowed to be in 1024x 800x or 640 ??
[07:21] <user_> darn
[07:21] <phenex> guys, i'm trying to set up a ubuntu box but many apt servers are down... does any one have an alternative sources.list for me?
[07:21] <Seveas> phenex, apt-get install patience
[07:21] <the_hammer> lol
[07:21] <jasbur> ha!
[07:21] <phenex> umm... kind of a problem...
[07:21] <mimithebrain> lol
[07:21] <the_hammer> that was funny
[07:21] <marcin_ant> phenex, try some mirrors
[07:21] <Bonez56> Seveas: rofl
[07:21] <phenex> guess it's on the server that fell...
[07:22] <fiznut> haha
[07:22] <mimithebrain> is there really a package named like that?
[07:22] <fiznut> Clever.
[07:22] <SS2> phenex: take the german repos
[07:22] <marcin_ant> phenex, maybe pl.archive.ubuntu.com
[07:22] <espectro> help, windows overwrote grub, and the ubuntuguide says to type grub-install /dev/hda but it says Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[07:22] <lens> I assume if a dvd opens when I put in the DVD automatically then it is mounted correct?
[07:22] <marcin_ant> phenex, polish mirrors should work
[07:22] <the_hammer> ypu there is and if u believe it i got a pile of dog doo-doo can sell ya 50 cents a pound
[07:22] <jasbur> espectro: weird i just had the same issue today, bad day for the site to go down :(
[07:22] <vorbote> espectro, if boot is in a different partition, you need to mount that one as well.
[07:22] <espectro> jasbur: site is up
[07:23] <espectro> vorbote: boot is on the same partition
[07:23] <Aagni> what about security? can i use a mirror for that as well?
[07:23] <Viperlin> hey, can one of the guys who banned AidyMole join #otw and take the piss out of him please
[07:23] <Viperlin> thankyou :)
[07:23] <jasbur> no it's not
[07:23] <phenex> thanks... il try the polish onse... though it sounds not really logical :|
[07:23] <andriijas> how do i mount a sd card reader ?
[07:23] <vorbote> espectro, check that your device is mapped in /boot/grub/device.map
[07:23] <XVampireX> coky
[07:23] <the_hammer> lol viper
[07:23] <XVampireX> conky
[07:23] <Kibou> lens: most dvd players use the device (/dev/dvd) directly actually
[07:23] <XVampireX> Ok
[07:24] <XVampireX> This is what happens when servers are down
[07:24] <XVampireX> Everyone excited
[07:24] <espectro> vorbote: it says: (hd0)   /dev/hda
[07:24] <espectro> (hd1)   /dev/hdc
[07:24] <jasbur> i never realized how much i depend on those servers before
[07:24] <espectro> my windows is dev/hda and ubuntu is /dev/hdc
[07:24] <quietas> 1) Old laptop 2) cdrom not bootable 3) floppy 4) SBM won't boot cd  - - ANy ideas?
[07:24] <espectro> vorbote: i even tried to chroot
[07:25] <doener_> if there are "onlyn" dns problems the direct ip adress should wokr
[07:25] <Kibou> quietas: trash it
[07:25] <the_hammer> anyone here have some time that can help me install an eggdrop?
[07:25] <lens> Kibou - so if I was configuring my hdparm.conf file... then I should set it up as /dev/dvd?  I'm having a hell of a time with WINE programs not detecting it.
[07:25] <doener_> does anybody know the ubuntu.com ip adress?
[07:25] <vorbote> espectro, Ahh! OK. You can't use grub
[07:25] <dr_willis> quietas,  remove hd. install in other box. install..  or find a boot floppy.
[07:25] <vorbote> espectro, nor lilo
[07:25] <quietas> Kibou: lol, that was the first thought, it's going to be a digital picture frame
[07:25] <espectro> what, i have used lilo and grub lots of times ago
[07:25] <Kibou> lens: no idea how wine handles stuff, sorry
[07:26] <espectro> grub is kinda sucky when linux isn-t on the first hard drive though
[07:26] <quietas> Dr_willis: yup, freaky huge laptop drive won't fit either of my other two laptops
[07:26] <Outworlder> are there any ubuntu repository mirrors?
[07:26] <vorbote> espectro, because the /boot paritition *has* to be in the main booting disk. What you can do is use ntldr to boot. That is, use the WinNT boot manager.
[07:26] <lens> Kibou, it's OK me neither... it's a bitch!
[07:26] <dr_willis> quietas,  heh - i got the opposite prob. My laptops hd died.. and its a 'slim' one. :P so i cant find a replacement.
[07:26] <vorbote> It's easy (though elaborate).
[07:26] <dr_willis> quietas,  those external usb bays are handy.
[07:26] <sdh> ubuntu servers dead?
[07:26] <the_hammer> well with services being down guess i picked a piss poor time to come ask for hel;p installing an eggdrop eh
[07:26] <quietas> dr_willis: any idea where to get a boot floppu image that will load the ubuntu installer off the cd?
[07:26] <jasbur> as a door nail
[07:27] <doener_> sdh, see topic! ^^
[07:27] <espectro> vorbote: i have used ntloader with lilo, but not with grub. how do i tell grub to save the boot sector to a file_
[07:27] <dr_willis> quietas,  not really - i bet its mentioned in the forums some where.
[07:27] <jasbur> this sucks, i'm losing a whole day of developing here
[07:27] <Aagni> the_hammer:  yes, i am stuck too :)
[07:27] <WebMaven> the_hammer: what's an eggdrop?
[07:27] <the_hammer> irc bot
[07:27] <vorbote> You grab a copy of the boot mark in your ubuntu partition (that is, first do a grub-install /dev/hdc1, if that's your booting partition)
[07:27] <quietas> dri_willis: haven't found anything yet, help site being down isn't helping
[07:27] <bobbyd> jasbur: use the mirrors!
[07:27] <espectro> vorbote: and then use dd like i do normally
[07:27] <bobbyd> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/search?q=cache:c5cTOW7xvvMJ:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive+&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&client=safari
[07:27] <jbholman> quietas: i know
[07:27] <sdh> Seveas: noob, i was enquiring about the reason
[07:27] <vorbote> Then dd if=/dev/hdc1 of=ubuntuboot.ini bs=512 count=1
[07:28] <the_hammer> http://www.eggheads.org/ <---to find out bout eggdrops
[07:28] <sdh> Seveas: no need to be an arse
[07:28] <Aagni> the_hammer: i thought they were scripts you could run right .. are you stuck with anything in particular
[07:28] <vorbote> copy that to windows end set up ntloader.
[07:28] <espectro> ubuntu@ubuntu:/boot/grub$ sudo grub-install /dev/hdc1
[07:28] <espectro> Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.
[07:28] <the_hammer> ya i cant get it installed
[07:28] <Knag> hi
[07:28] <amund> how can I make gnome copy text on select?
[07:28] <WebMaven> Seveas: Since I've only recently joined the channel, how long have the servers been down?
[07:28] <Aagni> the_hammer: why not
[07:28] <Seveas> WebMaven, a while
[07:28] <jasbur> all day
[07:28] <the_hammer> dunno it just wont go
[07:28] <Knag> amund, with the mouse mid bottom, perhaps?
[07:28] <vorbote> espectro, mount -t proc procfs /proc within the chrot
[07:28] <Aagni> the_hammer: perms?
[07:28] <jbholman> quietas: http://linux.simple.be/tools/sbm
[07:28] <espectro> ok
[07:28] <Seveas> they are working on it, but the errors are mostly beyond our control
[07:28] <the_hammer> perms?
[07:29] <bobbyd> all the people who are asking about the servers being down, just use one of the mirrors here: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/search?q=cache:c5cTOW7xvvMJ:https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive+&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&client=safari
[07:29] <jbholman> this should allow you to boot from floppy
[07:29] <bobbyd> it works fine
[07:29] <WebMaven> Seveas: are you a canonical employee?
[07:29] <Aagni> the_hammer: permissions?
[07:29] <jbholman> then just choose boot CD with your ubuntu cd in
[07:29] <Seveas> WebMaven, no
[07:29] <the_hammer> no no
[07:29] <azure_me> what's otw?
[07:29] <amund> Knag: mid button just past text, not copy
[07:29] <doener_> mirror: ftp://ftp.join.uni-muenster.de/pub/mirrors/ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu
[07:29] <the_hammer> i wish that is it lol i can fix that then
[07:29] <WebMaven> Seveas: 'beyond your control' can you expand on that a bit?
[07:29] <Seveas> WebMaven, no
[07:29] <Aagni> the_hammer: whats it then
[07:29] <quietas> jbholman: yeah, that was my thought also, but I get some weird Disk Error when I use it
[07:29] <espectro> damn
[07:29] <bobbyd> Seveas: how about adding that mirror list to the topic?
[07:29] <the_hammer> when i type the commands to install nothing happens
[07:30] <Knag> amund, no
[07:30] <espectro> says /dev/hdc1: Not found or not a block device.
[07:30] <jbholman> quietas: input/output error?
[07:30] <Knag> i think it also copies
[07:30] <Knag> well, my mouse does that!
[07:30] <jbholman> quietas: i had to try like 7 different floppies before it worked
[07:30] <espectro> > /dev/hdc1             18421552   3093436  14392332  18% /
[07:30] <squid0> hi
[07:30] <omarkj> If you do for me apt-cache search postgrey, to you get any results ?
[07:30] <squid0> where would i find libtoolize?
[07:30] <quietas> johlman: It does the save and then comes up with something saying Disk Error 0Xaa
[07:30] <the_hammer> well ill come and try back later i guess......see u guys
[07:30] <squid0> ie. which ubuntu package?
[07:30] <espectro> vorbote: i mounted proc and such
[07:31] <WebMaven> Seveas: OK.
[07:31] <pecisk_> hi crowd, is there any way to enable access to partitions - old ext3, Windows FAT - without messing with fstab? In betas, there was nice autodetection, how to bring it back?
[07:31] <bobbyd> Seveas: thanks
[07:31] <nry> what about ubuntu servers restoration
[07:31] <amund> Knag: aha, I works in firefox, but not in terminal. But I would relly like the old behavior
[07:31] <fiznut> What's the terminal command to search for installed dev libraries?
[07:31] <bobbyd> nry: check the topic and use a mirror
[07:32] <Knag> but what about control+C (well, this obviously doesn't copy text on a terminal)?
[07:32] <jbholman> quietas: so it asks you to save?  i just always select no
[07:32] <squid0> which ubuntu package contains 'libtoolize'?
[07:32] <jbholman> quietas: so you try to boot from CD, then it asks you to save, and you ahve been saying yes?
[07:32] <bobbyd> squid0: use apt-file to find out
[07:32] <quietas> jbholman: ignore it and say no?
[07:32] <squid0> bobbyd: thanks...
[07:32] <jbholman> quietas: because i had similar problems.  i would just say no
[07:33] <offroadgeek> I just installed dapper (xp dualboot) and it rebooted to boot into ubuntu for the first time and I get 'grub>' ... anyone familiar with this?
[07:33] <Sagotis> sup with ubuntu website?
[07:33] <interfear> offroadgeek: thats the boot loader
[07:33] <Seveas> squid0, libtool
[07:33] <squid0> Seveas: thanks
[07:33] <espectro> vorbote: any other ideas?
[07:33] <interfear> offroadgeek: you should be able to select wether you want to boot into windows or linux through that
[07:33] <Seveas> (not too unexcpected)
[07:33] <kozlojak> is there an easy way to change the bootup splash(when the system is first booting mouting the fs etc..)
[07:33] <Knag> Sagotis, it seems it has crashed?
[07:33] <offroadgeek> interfear: then I do 'root (hd0,5) to tell it that / is on /dev/hda6
[07:33] <Sagotis> knag, have u tried>
[07:33] <Knag> ('cause i can't apt-get nothing nor connect to ubuntu websites and so on)
[07:33] <jbroome> !away > McNutella
[07:34] <interfear> offroadgeek: hrm dont know what your talking about there
[07:34] <dr_willis> hda6 would be hd0,5
[07:34] <gnomefreak> Knag: read teh topic
[07:34] <Knag> Sagotis, yes
[07:34] <FX|Laptop> Well since the channelbot answered my question I guess I don't need to ask. lol
[07:34] <Knag> oh
[07:34] <Knag> sorry
[07:34] <jbroome> Ooh, even better
[07:34] <WebMaven> Seveas: do you know if this has anything to do with the recent debian server hack?
[07:34] <Knag> thanks :D
[07:34] <offroadgeek> interfear: when I've done this before, it usually gives me the list of kernels to boot into
[07:34] <paiiiiii> Does anyone know how to install et131x ethernet driver?
[07:34] <Seveas> WebMaven, nothing at all
[07:34] <SanketMedhi> !splash
[07:34] <ubotu> To change the Gnome splash screen, open the gconf-editor and change the key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash-image.
[07:34] <snow_blind> ah good not just me then :P
[07:34] <snow_blind> thanks for topic
[07:34] <see> hey i upgraded hoary->breezy-> dapper, and now my gnome desktop is just empty...any ideas what packages i need to install to get the normal standard ubuntu gnome desktop?
[07:35] <Seveas> see, ubuntu-desktop
[07:35] <bobbyd> see: install ubuntu-desktop
[07:35] <see> thnx
[07:35] <quietas> jbholman: same issue. I think it is something weird with this particular drive. System commander would'mnt boot it either
[07:35] <jbroome> Seveas: does this outage have anything to do with the israel/lebanon confilct?
[07:35] <jaras> does anyone know if you can tweak your right-click menu in gnome?
[07:35] <mimithebrain> oohhh, good question
[07:35] <Seveas> jbroome, don't be ridiculous
[07:35] <gnomefreak> jbroome: no
[07:35] <mimithebrain> haha
[07:35] <gnomefreak> ;)
[07:35] <jbroome> ;)
[07:35] <SanketMedhi> jaras: like for what?
[07:35] <jbholman> quietas: hmmm. i'm not sure what to say.  just to get things straight, you can boot the floppy, then you select boot from CDROM
[07:35] <pecisk_> hi crowd, is there any way to enable access to partitions - old ext3, Windows FAT - without messing with fstab? In betas, there was nice autodetection, how to bring it back?
[07:35] <jbholman> quietas: and what happens after that?
[07:36] <pasmen> Anyone knows about repository with VMware server package?
[07:36] <Mempf> !topic
[07:36] <Seveas> pasmen, there is none
[07:36] <ubotu> I know nothing about topic - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:36] <pasmen> k ty
[07:36] <SanketMedhi> pasmen: download it off Vmware's official site
[07:36] <bobbyd> Mempf: it's /topic
[07:36] <Seveas> pasmen, vmware-player is in the repos though
[07:36] <jaras> SanketMedhi: i miss the shorcut for the terminal
[07:36] <pasmen> i know about player
[07:36] <pasmen> got it up n running
[07:36] <pasmen> need server tho
[07:36] <Seveas> jaras, apt-get install nautilus-open-terminal
[07:36] <SanketMedhi> pasmen: Use the first few steps of this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=192328
[07:37] <pasmen> i read everything
[07:37] <SanketMedhi> SanketMedhi: what is the shortcut?
[07:37] <pasmen> can't get it to work still anyway
[07:37] <pasmen> i'll try once more when i have more time
[07:37] <pasmen> thanks
[07:37] <quietas> jbholman: yeah, I'm in SBM now on that laptop, I choose cdrom, asks me to save y/n, choses y or n and I eget a red box saying "Disk Error! 0xAA"
[07:37] <SanketMedhi> pasmen: use the link for server
[07:37] <Aagni> Sagotis: see topic
[07:37] <ketsugi> are the ubuntu forums down?
[07:37] <khoda> Just installed. loads everything takes me to login page. I login goes to next page with orange ubunto logo and maroon background. The logo is choppy and looks like crap. it just hangs there. this is after i installed w/ alternate cd. whats going on? looks like gfx problemm... (first time user)
[07:37] <galago> I'm getting an authentication failed message when installing packages, did the GPG key change?
[07:37] <pasmen> i downloaded it, and tried to install
[07:37] <doener_> ketilkn: yes
[07:37] <Seveas> galago, no
[07:37] <pasmen> i'm getting weird errors when building kernel modules
[07:38] <jaras> SanketMedhi: tanks will try it when their servers get up and running again...
[07:38] <jbholman> quietas: that happend to me once as well.  i simply had to try again.  i think the CD rom had just not spun up yet.  have you tried booting sbm, waiting maybe a minute and then selecting cdrom?
[07:38] <SanketMedhi> does anyone know about the gdmsetup crash error?
[07:38] <SanketMedhi> jaras: just go to vmware.com and you will figure it out I am sure
[07:38] <quietas> jbholman: yeah, it's sitting there loaded for the last 15 mintues or so
[07:39] <khoda> Just installed. loads everything takes me to login page. I login goes to next page with orange ubunto logo and maroon background. The logo is choppy and looks like crap. it just hangs there. this is after i installed w/ alternate cd. whats going on? looks like gfx problemm... (first time user)
[07:39] <galago> Seveas: so why do I get that error?  I have apt-key installed with the ftp master and cd keys 437D05B5 & FBB75451
[07:39] <jbholman> quietas: ooooooooooof........ have you tried another ubuntu CD?
[07:39] <Tonren> Hey guys, what is "startup notification"?
[07:39] <jbholman> quietas: by the way, what laptop do you have?
[07:39] <mimithebrain> Tonren: the sound it makes when it starts up?
[07:39] <quietas> jbholman: yup, ubuntu, xubuntu, lite. Multiple burns on a couple different puters and brands of discs
[07:40] <Knag> Tonren, a notification that (only) appears when you start something by the first time?
[07:40] <Knag> [perhaps sound, yes]
[07:40] <Aagni> my darn wireless connection drops after a while any idea why?
[07:40] <jbholman> quietas: i take it you have tried a couple different sbm floppies as well?
[07:40] <user_> the user rights for /home should be rwxr-xr-x right?
[07:40] <mimithebrain> Aagni: which card?
[07:40] <Tonren> mimithebrain: Knag: No, no... it's this thing that you can click when you're making a panel command.  And apparently it's some weird thing that an app has to specifically support for it to work.
[07:40] <quietas> jbholman: it's an older Dell XPi CD m166st, Old nearly ancient p166, but perfect to build into a picture frame
[07:40] <Knag> ah
[07:40] <Aagni> mimithebrain: uhh, dunno how do i find out
[07:40] <Kamping_Kaiser> how do i set a system wide proxy ? (not a gnome wide, a system wide)
[07:40] <mimithebrain> lspci
[07:40] <quietas> jbholman: yeah
[07:41] <mimithebrain> AAgni: lspci
[07:41] <Firebird8> is the repository down or somethin?
[07:41] <mimithebrain> Firebird8: yes!
[07:41] <Doenerporno> hey, i have a printer question
[07:41] <jbholman> quietas: hah.  you know i've seen directions for doing a net install after booting knoppix
[07:41] <jbholman> quietas: oh, nevermind
[07:41] <DigitalExorcist> I sure picked the wrong weekend to build a ubuntu mythbox, eh?
[07:41] <Amaranth> indeed
[07:41] <Firebird8> O_o
[07:41] <jbholman> quietas: is there any sorta OS booting on it now?
[07:41] <Firebird8> doh
[07:41] <khoda> Just installed. loads everything takes me to login page. I login goes to next page with orange ubunto logo and maroon background. The logo is choppy and looks like crap. it just hangs there. this is after i installed w/ alternate cd. whats going on? looks like gfx problemm... (first time user)
[07:42] <DigitalExorcist> any word on the cause?
[07:42] <Seveas> DigitalExorcist, no
[07:42] <mimithebrain> Some say DNS, others don't know...
[07:42] <DigitalExorcist> shiite!
[07:42] <Aagni> mimithebrain: it says Atheros
[07:42] <quietas> jbholman: yeah, I dug out win 98 a bit ago. Booting from floppy and install from cd works fine there
[07:42] <DigitalExorcist> dns looks good
[07:42] <Doenerporno> i have a canon ip3000, can i run it without turboprint?
[07:42] <RonzO> yay! khoda got it running!  =)
[07:42] <Rambo3> DigitalExorcist mythbox . :P that garbage
[07:42] <mimithebrain> Aagni: the background scan is probably activated... or something
[07:42] <billfur> Does the services problem effect installing a ubuntu box at all?  (as long as you change to non us servers?)
[07:42] <khoda> RonzO: haha
[07:42] <mimithebrain> Aagni: update the madwifi drivers
[07:42] <DigitalExorcist> whats better rambo3
[07:42] <khoda> RonzO: now we have new problems
[07:42] <mimithebrain> Aagni: then read the background scan documentation on madwifi.org
[07:43] <Aagni> mimithebrain: madwifi?
[07:43] <jbholman> quietas: oh, interesting.  well, maybe you could try booting with sbm and then knoppix? then a net-install?
[07:43] <RonzO> khoda, welcome to real life. =)
[07:43] <mimithebrain> Aagni: the driver that runs atheros cards
[07:43] <mimithebrain> Aagni: madwifi.org
[07:43] <minerale> Hi, is there an update on when the servers that have the packages will be up ?
[07:43] <RonzO> khoda, will boot all the way up?
[07:43] <jbholman> quietas: i've also seen directions for booting with debian sarge floppies and then changing your repos to ubuntu or something
[07:43] <Rambo3> DigitalExorcist freevo any time , just a bad defult skin
[07:43] <srikanth> How to save the programs in python interpreter??
[07:43] <Aagni> mimithebrain: and whats a background scan
[07:43] <gnomefreak> minerale: no
[07:43] <jbholman> quietas: of course, i saw it on the wiki, and the wiki is currently ...............
[07:43] <DigitalExorcist> will it do in the living room with a remote??
[07:43] <quietas> jbholman: Knoppix won't boot either, not a bootable cd unfortunately
[07:44] <srikanth> which is opened in terminnal?
[07:44] <khoda> RonzO: yes. (i vacuumed it). now it takes me to the login page and i login and it then it hangs on the next page. im pretty sure it a gfx driver problem. this happened before with the desktop cd so i used alternate cd, same problem.
[07:44] <paiiiiii> Anyone with a "Agere Systems et131x" ethernet card here that can help?
[07:44] <quietas> lbholman: yeah, I was digging through the, lastnight till it died
[07:44] <mimithebrain> Aagni: a feature in madwifi that scans for APs in the background, so you don't have to. It's a bit disruptive and activates each 2 minutes, dropping temporarly the connection
[07:44] <funkja> Why is it that I cannot uninstall gaim without uninstalling ubuntu-desktop
[07:44] <user_> guys if i remount a hd with different rights than the rights defined in the fstab will be restored after reboot thou anyways, correct?
[07:44] <mimithebrain> Aagni: post dmesg | tail
[07:44] <user_> though
[07:44] <dr_willis> user_,  yes. it should work that way
[07:44] <Seveas> funkja, because ubuntu-desktop depends on gaim
[07:44] <gnomefreak> funkja: ubuntu-desktop can be removed
[07:44] <user_> dr: thx
[07:44] <RonzO> khoda, does it eventually log on? can you get to the desktop?
[07:44] <Rambo3> DigitalExorcist even geexbox works perfect with remote
[07:44] <tmccrary> good job arsemaster
[07:45] <srikanth> can any one tell how to save the programs in python interpretor??
[07:45] <funkja> gnomefreak, what will removing ubuntu-desktop do?
[07:45] <Seveas> that obviously was too soon for him
[07:45] <gnomefreak> funkja: nothing
[07:45] <khoda> RonzO: nope , i can't. it just stays at hte page with a maroon background and a very choppy orange ubuntu logo. it just hangs there.
[07:45] <Aagni> mimithebrain: can i paste it here?
[07:45] <funkja> gnomefreak, what is it then?
[07:45] <Seveas> Aagni, no
[07:45] <mimithebrain> Aagni: if you have problems using command line, or are new to linux, I suggest that you check out for howtos in the ubuntuforums when the servers are up
[07:45] <cowbud> funkja: if they ever add things to the ubuntu-desktop meta package it won't be auto installed when you upgrade..
[07:45] <_al_> I'm wondering what's wrong with dapper
[07:45] <DigitalExorcist> I'll take a looksee - need it for playback mostly...
[07:45] <gnomefreak> !ubuntu-desktop > funkja
[07:45] <mimithebrain> Aagni: yes you can...
[07:45] <jbholman> has anyone had any luck seeing a housemate's itunes share? i've installed banshee and banshee-daap, but for some reason banshee does not find the share.  we are on the same subnet and there are two windows xp boxes with itunes shares and they can see eachother.  do i need to manually edit some avahi config files?
[07:45] <gnomefreak> funkja: read your pm please
[07:45] <_al_> with wlan network card
[07:45] <Kamping_Kaiser> you can hold ubuntu-desktop and remove packages under it, but i'm not sure about knockon effects yet
[07:45] <RonzO> what type of processor do ya have khoda ?
[07:45] <user_> anbody has a hint how to remove xfce4 if you didnt use aptitude to install it (but apt-get)?
[07:45] <pecisk_> !pmount
[07:45] <ubotu> I know nothing about pmount - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:45] <Seveas> jbholman, try rhythmbox, it does daap too
[07:46] <DuDReNoV> Hi. A lot of the repositries seem to be timing out the past fiew days? Is there a reason for this or should I asume that that's whatthe topic is talking about
[07:46] <Aurvandill> Hey, can I change the "Application - Places - System" to only one menu button?
[07:46] <dr_willis> user_,  it dont matter. they are both doing the same thing.
[07:46] <Aagni> mimithebrain: no, i am not new to CLI
[07:46] <Seveas> DuDReNoV, it's what the topic is about
[07:46] <khoda> RonzO: dual core, amd64
[07:46] <_al_> when I plug card in, this card is eth1 and wlan0
[07:46] <gnomefreak> Kamping_Kaiser: too much work for ubuntu-desktop since its not needed (except to upgrade)
[07:46] <RonzO> jbholman, rythmbox
[07:46] <DuDReNoV> Ahum.
[07:46] <jbholman> saveas: will try, but i guess i just prefer banshee
[07:46] <FurryNemesis> !xbuntu
[07:46] <dr_willis> user_,  you could fire up synaptic and start clicking.
[07:46] <ubotu> I know nothing about xbuntu - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:46] <_al_> I can't configure to work none of them
[07:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> gnomefreak, its one line in apt.conf - what do you mean to mcuh work ;)
[07:46] <mimithebrain> Aagni: then you won't have problems using ./configure and make
[07:46] <_al_> with breezy this card worked ok
[07:46] <FurryNemesis> !clamav
[07:46] <ubotu> I know nothing about clamav - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> Apt::NeverAutoRemove::ubuntu-desktop;
[07:46] <Kamping_Kaiser> gnomefreak ^^ (again, i'm not sure about the effect)
[07:46] <gnomefreak> Kamping_Kaiser: :X
[07:46] <sdh> Seveas: thanks
[07:47] <_al_> orinoco silver
[07:47] <Aagni> mimithebrain: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18701
[07:47] <user_> dr: i did --purge remove but xfce4 is still running without any problems...ive been told i should have used aptitude to install
[07:47] <mimithebrain> the madwifi drivers are troublesome in ubuntu...
[07:47] <gnomefreak> funkja: please stop playing with the bot
[07:47] <srikanth> who know about python??
[07:47] <khoda> RonzO: any idea?
[07:47] <minerale> are there any mirrors I can use to download packages ?
[07:47] <user_> dr: since it handles depnedencies much better when uninstalling...which i hav heard of before
[07:47] <Seveas> AnMaster, hi
[07:47] <Aagni> mimithebrain: i guess not
[07:47] <dr_willis> user_,  ya could use it to reinstall i guess.. what do ya mean 'still running' ?
[07:47] <BioVorE> still not working.. :-(
[07:47] <gnomefreak> srikanth: just ask your question please
[07:47] <BioVorE> must be really broke
[07:47] <AnMaster> Seveas, "<billfur> #ubuntu's insaner then usual" caused me to look in
[07:47] <caglar> anyone experienced ipod probmels with newer kernels?
[07:47] <Seveas> AnMaster, the channel is indeed insane today
[07:47] <RonzO> khoda, only thing i can think of is to make sure you used the AMD architecture image of ubuntu
[07:48] <Seveas> have fun watching
[07:48] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I was looking for hardware errors in dmesg, seems like there is none, which is good...
[07:48] <user_> dr: means i can still select it from the session manager and it runs without flaws...the whole environment tho its removed via apt-get
[07:48] <khoda> RonzO: yep the amd64 install
[07:48] <srikanth> gnomefreak, How to save the programs in python inter pretor??is it possible?
[07:48] <khoda> RonzO: i guess i'll keep asking =) thanks
[07:48] <funkja> gnomefreak, i wasn't playing with the bot
[07:48] <Seveas> srikanth, not possible
[07:48] <Aagni> mimithebrain: thats good to know
[07:48] <RonzO> np khoda
[07:48] <jbholman> ronzo, saveas: i have tried ryhthm-box but no shares are appearing? should i restart the avahi-daemon?
[07:48] <caglar> anyone experienced ipod probmels with newer kernels?
[07:48] <gnomefreak> srikanth: no
[07:48] <AnMaster> Seveas, can't compare, I usaly stay in #gentoo ;)
[07:48] <dr_willis> user_,  the 'xubuntu-desktop' is just a meta package - ya needt o search for xfce and remove the individule packages
[07:48] <odat> hi everyone
[07:48] <odat> ubuntu forums are down
[07:48] <Aagni> mimithebrain: what else can i do?
[07:48] <srikanth> Seveas, gnomefreak thank u
[07:48] <gnomefreak> funkja: sorry not you
[07:48] <RonzO> yes jbholman . and check properties of rythmbox also
[07:48] <Aurvandill> Typical that the ubuntu site is down when I was about to install KDE :P
[07:48] <the_hammer> lol
[07:49] <mimithebrain> Aagni: if you see something like "wifi0: hardware error, reseting", I wasn't able to fix that problem on that pcmcia card I have
[07:49] <user_> dr: ok, i did install xfce4 though not the xubuntu-desktop
[07:49] <Midknight> Is there something wrong with the Ubuntu Archive? every time I try to update it just lags out
[07:49] <gnomefreak> FunnyLookinHat: it was tab complete it was meant for fuzzy
[07:49] <jbroome> Midknight: topic
[07:49] <odat> anyone know the command to select the default java
[07:49] <Aagni> mimithebrain: oh, i see
[07:49] <RonzO> javaconfig
[07:49] <the_hammer> im glad i dont have your guy's problems of services being down
[07:49] <Seveas> odat, update-java-alternatives
[07:49] <khoda> Just installed from the Alternate CD (first time user). I can login then it goes to the next page and hangs. The next page has a very choppy orange ubuntu logo and a maroon background. thats as far as it goes. whats going on?
[07:49] <mimithebrain> Aagni: well, you can update madwifi, remove restricted modules if there is no other module you use, reboot, run depmod -a, and reconnect to the internet
[07:49] <Aurvandill> the_hammer: the server's not down to everyone?
[07:50] <gnomefreak> Aurvandill: hes not using ubuntu
[07:50] <Seveas> Khisanth, please don't repeat every 5 minutes
[07:50] <Aurvandill> oh
[07:50] <Aagni> how do i update madwifi?
[07:50] <Aurvandill> isn't this the ubuntu channel? :P
[07:50] <Aagni> mimithebrain: how do i update and remove restricted modules?
[07:50] <mimithebrain> Aagni: You pretty much must remove restricted modules... unless you wanna run root for a long time and delete the out-of-the-box modules
[07:50] <the_hammer> sorry i guess that wasnt nice to say
[07:50] <khoda> Seveas: was that for me? sorry.
[07:50] <jbholman> ronzo: i am not registered so i can't private chat
[07:50] <mimithebrain> Aagni: ok, first, download the latest snapshot from madwifi.org
[07:50] <Aurvandill> I actually have Gentoo on my other box, but too lazy to boot it up.
[07:50] <user_> is it a rather common problem that settings for programs seem to disappear once in awhile or should i assume this indicates a serious problem?
[07:50] <Aagni> mimithebrain: ok, its being downloaded
[07:51] <the_hammer> jbholman /msg nickserv help
[07:51] <mimithebrain> Aagni: then, extract it to a folder and go in a terminal... then enter the directory
[07:51] <khoda> Is there anyway to install my graphics drivers in console before going into gnome??
[07:51] <the_hammer> only thing i need is help with installing an eggdrop
[07:51] <mimithebrain> Aagni: install binutils, and build-essential...
[07:51] <tuliomgui> how do I play mp3 in my ubuntu??
[07:51] <mimithebrain> Aagni: if it's not done already, you must wait for the servers to come up
[07:51] <dr_willis> !mp3
[07:51] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:51] <tuliomgui> my engines cant play it...
[07:51] <RonzO> !mp3
[07:51] <Seveas> mimithebrain, binutils is part of build-essential
[07:51] <tuliomgui> =/
[07:52] <Aurvandill> khoda: you want to write in a console outside of X?
[07:52] <tuliomgui> !mp3
[07:52] <srikanth> the_hammer, how to register i read the help but i dont understand it; plz help me...
[07:52] <mimithebrain> tuliomgui: you can install xmms and the mp3 plugin, and everything is set ;)
[07:52] <RonzO> dr_willis, libxine_extracodecs
[07:52] <mimithebrain> Seveas: good to know, thanks :)
[07:52] <tuliomgui> thanks Ronz0
[07:52] <gnomefreak> srikanth: /msg nickserv register password email
[07:52] <the_hammer> srikanth /msg nickserv  register password
[07:52] <Aagni> mimithebrain: i unzipped it, what next
[07:52] <khoda> Aurvandill: Well I can't get into gnome, it hangs on a certain page with a choppy logo. im guessing its a gfx problem..
[07:52] <odat> Seveas, what the entire command for selecting java
[07:52] <the_hammer> dont need e-mail
[07:52] <the_hammer> just the password
[07:52] <mimithebrain> Aagni: enter the directory in a console and type make
[07:52] <RonzO> lol
[07:53] <Aagni> mimithebrain: says command not found
[07:53] <srikanth> gnomefreak, the_hammer thank u
[07:53] <the_hammer> your welcome :)
[07:53] <mimithebrain> Aagni: you haven't installed build-essential
[07:53] <tuliomgui> wich mp3 plugin Ronz0??
[07:53] <gnomefreak> the_hammer: if you lose your password you want to have meail in there
[07:53] <jbroome> Aagni: sounds like you need build-esential
[07:53] <mimithebrain> Aagni: in that case, you can download it from a mirror or wait for the official ubuntu servers to come back up
[07:53] <jbholman> the hammer: thanks
[07:53] <the_hammer> true but here they dont accept emails
[07:53] <the_hammer> didnt for me anyway
[07:53] <the_hammer> your welcome
[07:53] <minerale> Hi, are there any mirrors that work for packages ?
[07:53] <gnomefreak> they do
[07:53] <FunnyLookinHat> Did someone ping me??
[07:53] <Aagni> mimithebrain: i am installing it
[07:53] <gnomefreak> FunnyLookinHat: nope not that i saw
[07:54] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I install those ASAP usually, because I mostly compile from source packages that have a better version...
[07:54] <basvg> hi all.. I've tried to get one of my microphones to work but havne't been able to. One of them is the mic from my webcam, the other is from the Philips headset. gnome-volume-control sees both of them, I checked to make sure the devices are not muted and tried to record sound with gnome-sound-recorder with no luck. Can anyone help out?
[07:54] <khoda> Anyway to install gfx drivers in console before it automatically takes me to gnome?
[07:54] <Aurvandill> khoda: well, as a newb with Ubuntu I don't know how to get out of X, but it's probably easy... With Gentoo you started with a command line, and then had to write 'startx'
[07:54] <Aagni> mimithebrain: i have never done that before
[07:54] <RonzO> hey jbholman , sorry, cant reply to the message
[07:54] <FunnyLookinHat> gnomefreak, heh ok.  i'll be around if anyone needs somehting
[07:54] <Aagni> mimithebrain: as this is the first time i have installed linux on my own
[07:54] <RonzO> not registered w/ ronzo. =/ only ronz
[07:54] <mimithebrain> Aagni: oi... well there is a first time for everything
[07:54] <gnomefreak> FunnyLookinHat: ;)
[07:54] <the_hammer> hey funny lookin can ya help me install an eggdrop?
[07:54] <mimithebrain> Aagni: wow!! everyone... Kudos for Aagni!
[07:54] <FunnyLookinHat> the_hammer, eggdrop?
[07:55] <mimithebrain> :)
[07:55] <the_hammer> ya
[07:55] <tuliomgui> how do I put the tray bar in the bottom bar??
[07:55] <tuliomgui> please
[07:55] <Aagni> mimithebrain: thanks <blushes>
[07:55] <FunnyLookinHat> the_hammer, that would be... what is an eggdrop?
[07:55] <the_hammer> drag it
[07:55] <markedwards> its been a while that stuff has been down, huh?
[07:55] <FunnyLookinHat> !eggdrop
[07:55] <ubotu> I know nothing about eggdrop - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[07:55] <user_> ps only lists processes that been started from this terminal, i need to run ps -fu "username" to list all running processes right?
[07:55] <the_hammer> oh sorry its an irc bot
[07:55] <Aagni> mimithebrain: do i do a .. apt-get install build-essential?
[07:55] <Khisanth> Seveas: what the heck are you talking about? I have said anything in here for at least 24 hours!
[07:55] <mimithebrain> Aagni: now, it should be done right about now...
[07:55] <FunnyLookinHat> the_hammer, oooh. Ok sure
[07:55] <Seveas> Khisanth, ?
[07:55] <sidny4> any suggestions as to what program to use for my TV Tuner card?
[07:55] <mimithebrain> Aagni: yes, or you can use synaptic
[07:55] <som1> can i install an old version of something? and if so, how?
[07:55] <jbholman> ronzo: so i under preferences, i have clicked on "share my music" like you were suggesting, but it doesn't seem to help me see my roomates itunes share
[07:56] <markedwards> does anyone know of a package mirror that is currently operating?
[07:56] <Khisanth> [13:49:20] <Seveas/#ubuntu> +Khisanth, please don't repeat every 5 minutes
[07:56] <tuliomgui> how do I put the tray bar in the bottom bar??
[07:56] <Aurvandill> is there anyway to put everything into one ONE panel menu-button instead of the default 3? (application, places, system)
[07:56] <RonzO> make sure he is sharing it also jbholman
[07:56] <Aagni> mimithebrain: no, i think i am starting to like CLI
[07:56] <mimithebrain> Aagni: for ubuntu, you can use gksudo synaptic, or sudo -s, then synaptic... or just apt-get install whateveritis
[07:56] <Seveas> Khisanth, that was a <tab> error, sorry
[07:56] <jbholman> ronzo: he is set to share with the entire internet as of right now
[07:56] <basvg> when I playback whatever I've tried to record I only hear static
[07:56] <FunnyLookinHat> the_hammer, did you see that there is a package for eggdrop in the repos?
[07:56] <omac> markedwards:http://pastebin.ca/97375
[07:56] <mimithebrain> Aagni: CLI is much more efficient, that's what I like about linux
[07:56] <FunnyLookinHat> the_hammer, furthermore, I am willing to bet that there is a tutorial for it on ubuntuforums.org
[07:56] <jbholman> ronzo: but also, another windows xp box in the house can see his share and his can see that share
[07:56] <the_hammer> i got the bot sitting on desktop and extracted and cant seem to get it installed
[07:56] <Aagni> mimithebrain: i think so too .. i spent the last couple of years on AIX
[07:56] <Seveas> omac, the correct mirror list is in the topic
[07:56] <user_> dr: thx for your help :)
[07:56] <odat> Seveas, any idea?
[07:57] <the_hammer> ./configure doesnt do anything
[07:57] <markedwards> omac:thanks
[07:57] <gnomefreak> the_hammer: join #ubuntu-offtopic for setting up a bot
[07:57] <the_hammer> ok
[07:57] <RonzO> can he see your share jbholman ?
[07:57] <Aagni> mimithebrain: compared to it, linux is pretty neat
[07:57] <FunnyLookinHat> the_hammer, I'll meet you there
[07:57] <basvg> hmm, brb
[07:57] <mimithebrain> the_hammer, some package don't need ./configure... as for madwifi, it's straight to make ;)
[07:57] <abhinay> i want to upgrade my dapper drake to edgy eft , i downloaded edgy eft iso & burned it, can i upgrade my system to edgy eft without disturbing my system....
[07:57] <mimithebrain> Aagni: alright, you got it working?
[07:58] <Aagni> mimithebrain: wow, this thing automatically downloads all the dependencies too
[07:58] <jbholman> ronzo: yes they can see my shares
[07:58] <Aagni> mimithebrain: almost done
[07:58] <Aagni> mimithebrain: done
[07:58] <gnomefreak> abhinay: no your looking at alot of breakage and with the servers down you cant fdo it anyway
[07:58] <odat> anyone have any idea what the command is for setting the default java
[07:58] <mimithebrain> Aagni: that's why I like ubuntu too... no dependency h... um... problems
[07:58] <Aagni> mimithebrain: now i do a make right?
[07:58] <tuliomgui> how do I add the tray bar in the bottom panel??
[07:58] <mimithebrain> Aagni: yup!
[07:58] <Seveas> odat, update-java-alternatives (see its manpage for usage instructions)
[07:58] <RonzO> i dont know why it wont show it then, jbholman . i only used amarok and itunes...=/ anyone else have any ideas?
[07:58] <Seveas> tuliomgui, rightclick on it and select unlock
[07:58] <Seveas> then drag it to the desired location
[07:58] <mimithebrain> Aagni: it works?
[07:59] <mimithebrain> Aagni: no errors inside the first second?
[07:59] <Aagni> mimithebrain: do i need to sudo it?
[07:59] <mimithebrain> AAgni: no
[07:59] <mimithebrain> Aagni: not make... I never needed to make as root
[08:00] <mimithebrain> Aagni: only is you make as root before, then you will need to
[08:00] <tuliomgui> Seveas, i cant see this option
[08:00] <Aagni> mimithebrain: i got some errors
[08:00] <mimithebrain> Aagni: alright, show them
[08:00] <Sagotis> does at-get work for anyone?
[08:00] <singamayya> is us.archive.ubuntu.com   server down?!
[08:00] <Aagni> mimithebrain: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18702
[08:00] <mimithebrain> Aagni: one example of it
[08:00] <gnomefreak> Sagotis: READ THE TOPIC
[08:00] <Sagotis> err apt-get
[08:00] <mimithebrain> oh, that's easy :D
[08:00] <Aagni> mimithebrain: it is?
[08:01] <abhinay> i got a problem with my apt-get , whenever i try it , it is saying dpkg: error processing acpid (--configure): &  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code  , any suggestions... ?
[08:01] <mimithebrain> Aagni: install the kernel headers for the kernel version... (uname -a)
[08:01] <odat> Seveas, geez   nevermind   one little question that i find in the forums instantly turned into reading reading reading and a bunch of commands that don't work
[08:01] <Aagni> mimithebrain: how?
[08:01] <mimithebrain> Aagni: use synaptic for this one...
[08:02] <ubuntu__> how do i run a program via ssh that wont shut off when i close my terminal ?
[08:02] <mimithebrain> Aagni: it's something like linux-headers with version 2.6.15-23-368
[08:02] <jbroome> ubuntu__: check out screen
[08:02] <ubuntu__> jbroome: ?
[08:02] <ubuntu__> !screen
[08:02] <ubotu> screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[08:02] <Martouf> ubuntu__: read up on a thing called "nohup" in your shell
[08:02] <ubuntu__> ah ;)
[08:02] <Seveas> ubuntu__, put an & behind the program if it's not interactive, otherwise use screen
[08:02] <omac> seveas: mirrors referred to in the topic(http://tinyurl.com/g3e4g) are not as easy as providing the entries to put in the /etc/apt/sources.list as I demonstrated with http://pastebin.ca/97375 which I know works as we speak.
[08:02] <Aagni> mimithebrain: can i just do a apt-get install kernel-headers?
[08:02] <ubuntu__> Seveas: its a terminal app
[08:03] <AngryParsley> if you want to log the output but it's not interactive, use nohup
[08:03] <Martouf> '&' won't prevent the HUP signal from reaching the process
[08:03] <ubuntu__> AngryParsley: what command would i use?
[08:03] <abhinay> hello...., anybody help !!!
[08:03] <mimithebrain> Aagni: then, ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-[enter version here]  /lib/modules/[version here] /build
[08:03] <ubuntu__> run & nohup ?
[08:03] <WebMaven> I'm having huge problems with the electricsheep screensaver. Does anyone else use it?
[08:03] <AngryParsley> ubuntu__: "nohup blah &"
[08:03] <ubuntu__> oh ok
[08:03] <mimithebrain> Aagni: ah... no, I don't think so
[08:03] <Aagni> mimithebrain: sorry got dc
[08:03] <AngryParsley> where blah is the command you want to run
[08:03] <AngryParsley> all output will go to nohup.out
[08:03] <AngryParsley> I recommend screen though
[08:03] <AngryParsley> it's very handy
[08:04] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I'll find it for you
[08:04] <Aagni> mimithebrain: thanks!
[08:04] <AngryParsley> I'm having a problem getting the ubuntu live CD to boot on my ibook
[08:04] <AngryParsley> option + c doesn't work
[08:04] <Aagni> AngryParsley: are u using a CD for the PC version?
[08:04] <PsyBan-> how do i get icons on KDE desktop?
[08:04] <AngryParsley> and I can't see the CD in the list of startup disks
[08:04] <AngryParsley> Aagni: ppc
[08:04] <Snowfire> Does anyone know how to resize the terminal (tty1.tty2,etc) to a different resolution?
[08:05] <mimithebrain> Aagni: linux-headers-2.6.15-23
[08:05] <crayzee> Any idea when the servers will be back up?
[08:05] <togitogi> hi
[08:05] <Seveas> crayzee, no
[08:05] <gnomefreak> crayzee: no
[08:05] <mimithebrain> Aagni: emerge^H^H^H^H^H^H apt-get install that
[08:05] <AngryParsley> I already tried resetting my prom or whatever the non-volatile memory in apple's bios is
[08:05] <odat> anyone have the command?
[08:05] <AngryParsley> my ibook is the latest model, from december of 2005
[08:05] <Aagni> AngryParsley: by mistake maybe
[08:06] <AngryParsley> Aagni: I even tried a shipit PPC live CD
[08:06] <mimithebrain> Aagni: you're ok?
[08:06] <muep> any idea of what is the problem with the servers?
[08:06] <AngryParsley> when I insert the CD it's labeled Ubuntu_Powerpc_dapper
[08:06] <PsyBan-> how do i get icons on KDE desktop?
[08:06] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I might have to run soon...
[08:06] <AngryParsley> so I'm pretty sure it's the PPC
[08:06] <Aagni>  mimithebrain: ok
[08:06] <mimithebrain> Aagni: cool...
[08:07] <billfur> does the live install cd have a ntfs resizer?
[08:07] <PsyBan-> With what program do i get icons on KDE desktop?
[08:07] <Seveas> billfur, yes
[08:07] <Aagni> mimithebrain: i dc-ed again
[08:07] <interfear> is there a way to install without configuring apt? cuz at 84% the install halts because its configuring apt and the servers are down
[08:07] <Aurvandill> So... how can I make the "start" menu just one button in gnome?
[08:07] <Aagni> mimithebrain: what is the package name for linux headers?
[08:07] <John3437> AngryParsley,  just try holding dow the C on it's own after selecting a restart
[08:07] <mimithebrain> Aagni: what is dc-ed?
[08:07] <apokryphos> PsyBan-: #kubuntu
[08:07] <Aagni> mimithebrain: dc=disconnect
[08:07] <xange> anybody else having problems with apt?
[08:07] <Aurvandill> xange: topic
[08:07] <mimithebrain> Aagni, I'll fetch it form history
[08:07] <jbholman> interfear: which install cd are you using
[08:07] <HiP_P> topic
[08:07] <Aagni> mimithebrain: thanks
[08:07] <interfear> jbholman: 32bit dapper desktop
[08:07] <muep> Aurvandill: remove the usual menu and then add the older styled one
[08:07] <pirast> interfear: there should be a timeout.. otherwise just disconnect your network connection
[08:08] <AngryParsley> John3437: I also tried that
[08:08] <mimithebrain> linux-headers-2.6.15-23
[08:08] <AngryParsley> nothing
[08:08] <interfear> ok, ill try and wait for the timeout..
[08:08] <Aurvandill> muep: oh, ok. how?
[08:08] <xange> Aurvandill, thank god I thought I broke something :)
[08:08] <inazad_> How many time the servers will be down ?
[08:08] <spades> maybe the bot should /notice people on join the server is down?
[08:08] <Doenerporno> is there some command that shows me how much cpu each is eating?
[08:08] <AngryParsley> I even tried that key combo that removes the hard drive from the startup list
[08:08] <muep> Aurvandill: right-click the panel
[08:08] <mimithebrain> Aagni: linux-headers-2.6.15-23
[08:08] <Seveas> spades, chanserv does that
[08:08] <Aurvandill> xange: I thought my ISP was being a biatch
[08:08] <interfear> Doenerporno: uptime
[08:08] <Seveas> no one reads
[08:08] <Seveas> EVER
[08:08] <muep> Aurvandill: then select add to panel
[08:08] <AngryParsley> this thing just sat there trying to netboot all day
[08:08] <Seveas> which you just proved :
[08:08] <mimithebrain> Seveas: having a hard day?
[08:08] <spades> Seveas i knew it was down, i was just suggesting :P
[08:08] <AngryParsley> I can boot off the OS X DVD
[08:08] <muep> Aurvandill: and then browse the older menu thing
[08:09] <pirast> interfear: if there is none, please file a bug ubiquity
[08:09] <AngryParsley> holding down C works with that
[08:09] <Aagni> mimithebrain: its downloading away
[08:09] <HiP_P> also no-ones getting kick seveas
[08:09] <abhinay> gnomefreak,  i got a problem with my apt-get , whenever i try it , it is saying dpkg: error processing acpid (--configure): &  E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code  , any suggestions... ?
[08:09] <HiP_P> *kicked
[08:09] <Aurvandill> muep: "menu bar" or "main menu"?
[08:09] <Doenerporno> interfear: i made a typo. a command that shows me how much each process is eating.
[08:09] <xange> Aurvandill, I did a fairly big install last night before I went to bed, some of them were unsigned
[08:09] <muep> Aurvandill: dunno, try both
[08:09] <jkelly2005> AngryParsley: hold down the alt key. that should give you the option to boot the cd.
[08:09] <Aurvandill> Thanks :D
[08:09] <muep> np
[08:09] <pirast> Doenerporno ps aux or top
[08:09] <spades> Seveas hah, had to scroll up, sorry, multiple networks on open and this chat usually flies so i didnt notice
[08:10] <ruoho> kind of offtopic but..anyone can tell me why i cant Ping default gateway? what does that mean?
[08:10] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I might have to go so listen carefully, after that's done. enter ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers[appropriate version]  /lib/modules/[appropriate version] /build, then run make again
[08:10] <Doenerporno> thanks!
[08:10] <ruoho> wtf
[08:10] <thnee> isn't linuxdcpp added to ubuntu repositories or have i done someting wrong in synaptics? its added to debians..
[08:10] <Ademan> hey, does anyone have any idea what some light weight and fast desktop environments are? i've got an old 300 mhz computer i want to bring back from the dead, and even xfce seems to be too much for it
[08:10] <Aagni> mimithebrain: ok boss
[08:11] <jbholman> Ademan: fluxbox
[08:11] <Seveas> thnee, dcpp package is called valknut
[08:11] <xange> so onto another issue....whenever I leave my box sit for a long time it seems to lockup. I wouldl say that its a black screensave because my monitor is on and they keyboard still works w/being able to put caps/num lock on but I'm not quite sure
[08:11] <Aurvandill> Ademan: fluxbox.. yeah, what he said
[08:11] <thnee> Seveas: isnt that some old stuff, not the real dc++?
[08:11] <jbholman> Ademan: it isn't exactly a complete environment, but it should be one of your best shots
[08:11] <RonzO> Ademan, check out Damn Small Linux
[08:11] <Doenerporno> two cupsys processes are eating 90% cpu...
[08:11] <Doenerporno> doing nothing.
[08:11] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I might have this wrong, hold on
[08:11] <thnee> Seveas: some dctc stuff?
[08:11] <Aurvandill> fluxbox takes some more work to customise, though
[08:11] <Aagni>  mimithebrain: make is on its way (yay!)
[08:11] <Seveas> thnee, never used dc++ so can't tell
[08:11] <Doenerporno> how can i restart cupsys?
[08:11] <Aagni> mimithebrain: oops
[08:12] <ruoho> fluxbox also is not a desktop but a window manager
[08:12] <Callahad> Doenerporno: sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
[08:12] <AngryParsley> jkelly2005: that just shows the hard drive and net boot
[08:12] <Ademan> jbholman: why do you say its an incomplete environment?
[08:12] <thnee> Seveas: iirc dctc ir banned on my favourite hubs, and its not pretty
[08:12] <Ademan> oh... that would explain that
[08:12] <Aagni> Doenerporno: /etc/init.d/cupsysd restart
[08:12] <Doenerporno> thanks, Callahad
[08:12] <Zambezi> Is the server down for much longer? Anyone know repos which make it possible for me to install with apt-get?
[08:12] <AngryParsley> if I try it with the OS X dvd, it shows it
[08:12] <Callahad> Aagni: irssi filename completion for the win :)
[08:12] <mimithebrain> Aagni: that's right... /lib/modules/[version] /build must symlink /usr/src/[version]
[08:12] <thnee> Seveas: im looking for http://linuxdcpp.berlios.de
[08:12] <Aagni> mimithebrain: now what?
[08:12] <mimithebrain> ok
[08:12] <DarkAudit> odd this... News Rover in WINE is less resource-intensive than Pan running natively, even after thay rewrote pan to be lighter and faster
[08:12] <Aagni> mimithebrain: irssi?
[08:12] <jbholman> Ademan: well, maybe i'm wrong,  but i've always thought that kde and gnome were complete desktop environments and fluxbox  was not
[08:12] <mimithebrain> Aagni: copy paste uname -a
[08:12] <Tonren> Hey guys, how do I mount my ext3 hard drive from the Live CD? so I can mess with it?
[08:13] <jbroome> that za.archive.u.c mirror must be getting hammered
[08:13] <mimithebrain> Aagni, I'll tell you the exact command
[08:13] <AngryParsley> I wish I had other bootable CDs to try out, but right now it's almost as if the ubuntu CD is not a bootable CD
[08:13] <Tonren> jbholman: Fluxbox has always seemed "incomplete" to me, too
[08:13] <mimithebrain> Aagni: then type make and paste the error too
[08:13] <methanol> Will a Ubuntu liveCD boot up an intel mac?
[08:13] <Aagni> Linux mymachinebane 2.6.15-23-386 #1 PREEMPT Tue May 23 13:49:40 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[08:13] <xange> is there a way to change the font/over all screen size of console?
[08:13] <Aagni> mimithebrain: no error
[08:13] <Callahad> Aagni: irssi is an irc client. It actually lets you do terminal-style tab completion of filenames, so just joking as to how I beat you to answer the cupsys restart question :)
[08:14] <mimithebrain> Aagni: no errors? then you done it correctly!
[08:14] <cykon> ...not sure...but i dont think macintel will be supported til edgy
[08:14] <jbholman> tonren: i was not meaning to say that it was incomplete, just that it wasn't a full-blown environment
[08:14] <Zambezi> Seveas, Sorry. Didn't see that.
[08:14] <jbholman> i wouldn't it want it to be any more "complete"
[08:14] <Aagni> mimithebrain: hurrah!!
[08:14] <Tonren> jbholman: Yeah, taht amkes sense
[08:14] <Aagni> mimithebrain: what next?
[08:14] <Tonren> So who knows how to mount my hard drive from teh Live CD?
[08:14] <Ademan> question, is fluxbox in the repositories? because it seems i'll hafta install ubuntu without Xorg or at least minus gnome, and then apt-get right?
[08:14] <Callahad> xange: check out man consolechars to change the font. For the screen size of the conosle, you'll want to look into framebuffer stuff
[08:14] <Aagni> Callahad: i see :))
[08:14] <ETronik> I just connected my USB flashdisk, but it doen's get automounted... can anyone help ?
[08:14] <mimithebrain> Aagni: what does build point to when you ls -l /lib/modules/[version]  ?
[08:14] <apokryphos> Tonren: /msg ubotu mount
[08:14] <xange> Callahad, thanks
[08:14] <Seveas> Ademan, it is
[08:14] <Tonren> Ademan: I was able to install with sudo apt-get fluxbox
[08:14] <Doenerporno> hey, the processes keep working after cupsys restart! what can i do?
[08:14] <Tonren> Thanks apokryphos
[08:14] <DarkAudit> Tonren: I eventually got tired of constantly having to manually update the Fluxbox menus to keep my custom settings in place
[08:14] <odat> any easy way to determine the write speed of my burner
[08:15] <Tonren> also, does anyone know what the difference between Apt-Get and Aptitude is on the command line?
[08:15] <Subhuman> odat, look on the front of it?
[08:15] <Aagni> mimithebrain: /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.15-23-386
[08:15] <Seveas> Subhuman, ^_^
[08:15] <thnee> debian has the package "linuxdcpp" but i cant find it in ubuntu..
[08:15] <mimithebrain> Aagni: everything has been done correctly
[08:15] <Subhuman> Tonren, aptitude has a interface, and it also installs recommended packages.
[08:15] <Aagni> mimithebrain: yay. next
[08:15] <Aagni> ?
[08:15] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I was just paranoid then...
[08:15] <odat> Subhuman, not listed
[08:15] <Ademan> Tonren: cool, thanks, did that automatically switch you over to fluxbox? (since i'm hearing its just a WM not a desktop environment)
[08:15] <jbholman> tonren: there are many differences, but i don't know them all.  aptitude tends to remove unused packages as well
[08:15] <Callahad> xange: to change the resolution, specifically, try adding vga=792 to your kernel boot options in grub. 792= 1024x768x24
[08:15] <Aagni> mimithebrain: thats alright
[08:15] <amee2k> hi all
[08:15] <Tonren> Ademan: No; I logged out and switched to a fluxbox session
[08:15] <Spitty> odat, if you google the model #, you should get a hit or two with the info
[08:16] <Tonren> Subhuman: So the only difference on teh command line is dependency handling
[08:16] <mimithebrain> Aagni: using lsmod, look if you use any modules listen in restricted modules
[08:16] <xange> 792 = or vga = ?
[08:16] <Callahad> xange: vga=792
[08:16] <Aagni> mimithebrain: what do i look for?
[08:16] <Subhuman> Tonren, yes, but typing "sudo aptitude" brings you to a UI of sorts, while apt has no such interactive interface.
[08:16] <amee2k> is there another X ftp client for gnome other than nautilus?
[08:16] <Ademan> vga=792  is a fix for LCD screens
[08:16] <spades> amee2k gftp
[08:16] <GreySim> amee2k, gftpg
[08:16] <mimithebrain> Aagni: for example, do you use an ATI card, or nvidia... or fcdsl... or ltmodem...
[08:16] <aldo> Hi, from veri few minutes I see a test document containing this text "ciao". Have I a hole in my Ubuntu?
[08:17] <GreySim> Err, gftp.
[08:17] <xange> right, then I would want to change that to vga=1280x1024x24
[08:17] <jbholman> subhuman: but you can use aptitude without the gui
[08:17] <Aagni> mimithebrain: yes
[08:17] <Aagni> mimithebrain: ATI
[08:17] <Callahad> xange: oh, no, you use the value 792
[08:17] <jbholman> subhuman: but you can use aptitude without the *text gui
[08:17] <mimithebrain> Aagni: ok, have you installed fglrx or you didn't install that?
[08:17] <xange> ohh
[08:17] <xange> ok
[08:17] <Doenerporno> cupsys    6738 46.0  0.5   4676  2784 ?        R    19:58   8:43 /usr/bin/bjfilterpixusip3100 --imageres 600 --papersize a4 --paperload asf --media plain --bbox 9,13,
[08:17] <Subhuman> jbholman, yes and if you do all it does is install both the recommended and suggested packages, while apt just install the recommended ones.
[08:17] <Dewbie> I want to change my LCD to its native.. but I never have been able too
[08:17] <amee2k> hm... which repo? can't find it in synaptic?
[08:17] <Aagni> mimithebrain: there's a entry in there for ati, wlan
[08:17] <Doenerporno> this is ps aux output
[08:17] <Tonren> Hey guys, I'm on the live CD and I went to System -> Administration -> disks, but I can't enable file access on my root directory.  Any hints?
[08:18] <Dewbie> I change it, xorg won't use it
[08:18] <Doenerporno> how can i kill this process?
[08:18] <Callahad> xange: it's kind of weird, and I don't understand it. It's also common to use the hex representations of the numbers, so things like vga=0x31B
[08:18] <Tonren> I'm trying to backup something to my /home partition before I reinstall
[08:18] <xange> my box just froze, I"ve been having problems with this. how can I fgure out what is causing it?
[08:18] <Aagni> mimithebrain: whats that?
[08:18] <Callahad> xange: a list of resolutions and vga= value is at http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/05/04/1621224
[08:18] <Tonren> xange: Has it froze often?  Are there any pattenrs to when it freezes?
[08:18] <Seveas> xange, poke around in /var/log
[08:18] <mimithebrain> Aagni: that's fine... then if there is no modules in lsmod that is fglrx, nvidia, or begins with fc* or ltmodem, then you can uninstall linux-restricted-modules-[version]
[08:18] <spades> Doenerporno (sudo) kill -9 6738
[08:18] <xange> Tonren, no, just all of a sudden
[08:18] <Doenerporno> spades: thank you
[08:19] <xange> Seveas, thanks
[08:19] <euly> hi
[08:19] <euly> i just installed ubuntu 6. i only get a resolution of 1024. any ideas, how i change it to 1280?
[08:19] <dash`> anybody want to talk me through how to compile something?
[08:19] <mimithebrain> Aagni: when that's done... you have to run make install in the madwifi directory as root, and run depmod -a...
[08:19] <Callahad> dash`: sure
[08:19] <Aagni> mimithebrain: there's one beginning with ati
[08:19] <Seveas> !resolution > euly
[08:19] <mimithebrain> Aagni: that's fine, ati != fglrx
[08:19] <dash`> Callahad :: I am rather inept, just to warn you
[08:19] <Callahad> dash`: no problem
[08:19] <Aagni> mimithebrain: oh, ok
[08:19] <euly> !resolution
[08:19] <Aagni> mimithebrain: so how do i uninstall?
[08:19] <ubotu> x is the X Window System; it's the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type this in a console: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  -  To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:19] <dash`> I am trying to install a GUI client for XMMS2
[08:19] <dash`> its called Promoe
[08:19] <Tonren> Ugh.. I removed KDE and it broke everything
[08:20] <mimithebrain> Aagni, you can use synpatic, or apt-get uninstall linux-restricted-modules-[version]
[08:20] <Tonren> Is there a GNOME clipboard manager daemon?
[08:20] <mimithebrain> Aagni, sorry, that's apt-get remove
[08:21] <Ademan> does fluxbox have any sort of panel support? and more importantly can i add launcher items to it and menus (similar to the gnome main menu)
[08:21] <dash`> Callahad :: I am unregistered atm, that may be blocking our query, not sure
[08:21] <mimithebrain> "This APT has Super Cow Powers. Moo!"
[08:21] <santa99> good evening, I have a problem with my shutdown. When i boot my computer with apm=on apm=power-off acpi=off my computer shutdown correctly. When i boot my computer normal without these boot parameters my computer comes only to Will now halt and hangs there and i have to shutdown with the power button. The problem is I need the acpi for my processor and sound. So any ideas what i could do ?
[08:21] <Callahad> dash`: ah
[08:21] <mimithebrain> Aagni: r u ok?
[08:21] <Aagni> mimithebrain: uninstalling
[08:21] <Callahad> dash`: well, in that case, off to #helpingdash?
[08:22] <Aagni> mimithebrain: done
[08:22] <euly> how can i switch off these "someone has joined #ubuntu" messages?
[08:22] <dash`> Callahad :: sure
[08:22] <mimithebrain> Aagni: once that's done, sudo make install
[08:22] <pecisk_> euly: X-chat client?
[08:22] <mimithebrain> Aagni: then sudo depmod -a
[08:22] <euly> pecisk_: irc
[08:22] <illvarg-xgl> where did ubuntu.com go?
[08:22] <pecisk_> euly: Mirc?
[08:22] <Tonren> illvarg-xgl: See topic
[08:22] <Aagni> mimithebrain: done both install and depmod
[08:22] <Bonez56> illvarg-xgl: for vacation
[08:22] <euly> pecisk_: i just typed irc in the bash
[08:22] <illvarg-xgl> Tonus: hehe, ok
[08:22] <mimithebrain> Aagni, ok... remember this, if you have problems, you can reboot, jump in a console, and run sudo modprobe ath_pci to reactivate your wireless
[08:23] <euly> and how can i change the background color to black? white is not looking good.
[08:23] <Giiinciuxx> labux
[08:23] <santa99> no ideas
[08:23] <mimithebrain> Aagni: are you using wireless right now?
[08:23] <pecisk_> euly: check out irssi
[08:23] <Aagni> mimithebrain: yes
[08:23] <pecisk_> euly: manual I mean
[08:23] <Aagni> mimithebrain: so i need to dc then?
[08:23] <jkelly2005> does anyone know of an alternative to security.ubuntu.com. anyone know a mirror of security.ubuntu.com?
[08:24] <mimithebrain> Aagni: so, you are probably running on the old wireless drivers, which is fine
[08:24] <mimithebrain> Aagni: no you don't
[08:24] <[Wiebel] > anyone using kwlan here?
[08:24] <Aagni> mimithebrain: oh, ok
[08:24] <Bergcube> santa99~  I have seen exactly the same problem on a laptop, but didn't find any solution.  Would be interesting if you figured it out.
[08:24] <Aagni> mimithebrain: so when will this new driver come into effect
[08:24] <mimithebrain> Aagni: if you reboot, all old modules will be unloaded from memory and the new ones will jump in
[08:24] <dee> hello. have someone some experiences with dosemu? the program quits everytime I launch it.
[08:24] <Aagni> mimithebrain: can i do that now?
[08:25] <PsyBan-> whats KDE:s desktop Manager?
[08:25] <santa99> Bergcube, the problem is i have no idea what I could do against this problem
[08:25] <mimithebrain> Aagni: then, if they don't come up, just sudo depmod -a and sudo modprobe ath_pci. But that shouldn't happen
[08:25] <PsyBan-> nautilus is gnomes
[08:25] <PsyBan-> what is KDE:s
[08:25] <euly> pecisk_: i did "man irssi". no mention of "color" or "messages"
[08:25] <Aagni> mimithebrain: got it <writing it down>
[08:25] <euly> pecisk_: i did "man irssi". no mention of "color" or "messages"
[08:25] <mimithebrain> Aagni: you can reboot, it's better than having you unload every single madwifi modules :P
[08:25] <apokryphos> PsyBan-: it's not its desktop manager, it's its File Manager.  Now i cant even login to gnome with that user. anyone have a pointer on what to do? please...
[08:25] <apokryphos> *KDE's
[08:25] <Aagni> mimithebrain: right.. in that case brb
[08:25] <mimithebrain> Aagni: depmod -a is to update the module dependecies and make the new modules ready to use
[08:25] <PsyBan-> apokryphos, you shut up
[08:25] <santa99> Bergcube, maybe to change the shutdown scripts to use apm functions
[08:25] <euly> wiki.ubuntu.com/FixVideoResolutionHowto is not working.. anybody here knows how to change resolution to 1280 on ubuntu?
[08:25] <Bergcube> santa99~  Then we're two.......
[08:25] <mimithebrain> Aagni: modprobe activates modules and loads em in memory
[08:25] <Aagni> mimithebrain: ok
[08:26] <mimithebrain> Aagni: btw
[08:26] <Aagni> mimithebrain: yes
[08:26] <Aagni> ?
[08:26] <santa99> Bergcube, so you have the same problem ?
[08:26] <Kibou> apokryphos: wth... "nice" kick
[08:26] <mimithebrain> Aagni: congratualation on your first compilling, and first module installation
[08:26] <simon_> euly: http://www.irssi.org/themes
[08:26] <mimithebrain> Aagni: if you know this, you will have relativelly few problems with linux
[08:26] <apokryphos> Kibou: sorry?
[08:26] <Aagni> mimithebrain: thanks (yay!!!!!!!!!!!) and thanks for making this happen
[08:26] <Motoko-chan> Whole Wiki is down for me, so it may not be just you, euly
[08:26] <mimithebrain> Aagni: enjoy ubuntu :)
[08:26] <Bergcube> santa99~  No, not me.  Someone with a laptop I looked at.  But this is a friend so the laptop is sort of within reach...
[08:26] <Aagni> mimithebrain: be right back aND THANKS!
[08:26] <Aagni> mimithebrain: oops .. sorry
[08:26] <mimithebrain> Aagni, hold on
[08:27] <santa99> Bergcube, understand this problem is really frustrating
[08:27] <Motoko-chan> So, since the wiki is down, I need some help getting WPA working on my Intel card. Anyone want to assist?
[08:27] <mimithebrain> Aagni: I'll give you my email address, so you can reach me in *case* it fails
[08:27] <mimithebrain> oh, he's gone :(
[08:27] <mimithebrain> well, should work...
[08:27] <Bergcube> santa99~  Yes, I agree.  And seems sort of needless.  Have you considered writing to the mailing list?
[08:27] <mimithebrain> I don't see why not, I've done it so many times before...
[08:27] <livingdaylight> anyone else get problems with synaptic?
[08:27] <livingdaylight> W: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/y/yakuake/yakuake_2.7.5-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
[08:28] <santa99> Bergcube, I will report when I find a solution
[08:28] <P4W3R> hi
[08:28] <mimithebrain> livingdaylight: yeesss!!!
[08:28] <Subdee> livingdaylight, check the topic
[08:28] <mimithebrain> Reps are doooowwwn
[08:28] <santa99> Bergcube, not found the time to do this
[08:28] <dee> livingdaylight: ubuntu.com is down.
[08:28] <livingdaylight> ok, sorry guys, didn't read the topic
[08:28] <regeya> !mirrors
[08:28] <ubotu> Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[08:28] <mimithebrain> libingdaylight: beware, Seveas will kick you out if you don't read the topic ;)
[08:28] <Motoko-chan> So... WPA assist anyone?
[08:28] <livingdaylight> sorry seveas
[08:28] <P4W3R> a working mirror?
[08:28] <P4W3R> ... what happened?
[08:29] <P4W3R> an attack?
[08:29] <regeya> !tell P4W3R about mirrors
[08:29] <RonzO>  #ubnutu should pm a message saying ubuntu servers are down...
[08:29] <livingdaylight> i am reassured then, although i was looking forward to instaliling Yakuake
[08:29] <mimithebrain> P4W3R: we... don't... know
[08:29] <Bergcube> santa99~  Good luck!  BRB.................
[08:29] <RonzO> when people log on
[08:29] <Subdee>  [#ubuntu]  Many ubuntu services are down - people are working to restore them - DO NOT ASK, we don't know more
[08:29] <xange> !tell xange about mirrors
[08:29] <Motoko-chan> I'm guessing someone messed up a route or something.
[08:29] <santa99> Bergcube, Thanks I will need it :)
[08:29] <livingdaylight> Ronz: Yea!
[08:29] <apokryphos> RonzO: no, that's unnecessary spam; an entrymsg and note in the /topic is the best idea
[08:29] <P4W3R> is not spam...
[08:30] <livingdaylight> apokryphos: no it isn't. I don't read the topic everytime i come in
[08:30] <gatekeeper> gatekeeper > mirrors
[08:30] <apokryphos> livingdaylight: you should
[08:30] <livingdaylight> P4W3R: i agree
[08:30] <apokryphos> and you certianly should read the entrymsg
[08:30] <P4W3R> i read topic...
[08:30] <gatekeeper> !gatekeeper > mirrors
[08:30] <mimi_gone> hey!
[08:30] <Subdee> you should read the topic then
[08:30] <Subdee> that's why it exists
[08:30] <RonzO> apokryphos, with the amount of people that have come in asking about it, i believe that it would do away with the spam in this channel imo
[08:30] <P4W3R> because topic has the true
[08:30] <livingdaylight> apokryphos: well, i don't everytime i come in, which could be servral timea a day
[08:30] <mimithebrain> Aagni: you're back!
[08:30] <euly> set theme green
[08:30] <P4W3R> ^^
[08:30] <mimithebrain> Aagni: it worked?
[08:30] <euly> ups.. :)
[08:30] <Aagni> mimithebrain: yeah!
[08:30] <xange> I've gotten so used to the topic having nothing crucial in it that I've stopped reading it :-/
[08:30] <apokryphos> especially if you're thinking about "servers being down". If they are, it's going to be, erm, quite common.
[08:30] <mimithebrain> Aagni: niiiiiiiiice :d
[08:30] <mimithebrain> :D*
[08:30] <Aagni> mimithebrain: yippeee
[08:30] <apokryphos> RonzO: actually, it wouldn't; we've tried, and it didn't help at all.
[08:30] <livingdaylight> apokryphos: get real
[08:31] <Aagni> mimithebrain: well,  ineed to wait for a while and see if the connection drops
[08:31] <apokryphos> livingdaylight: I'm quite real, I assure you.
[08:31] <mimithebrain> Aagni: that should take care of spontaneous crashes and dropped connections
[08:31] <livingdaylight> ^^
[08:31] <sparkleytone> any USB gurus out there?
[08:31] <apokryphos> !anyone
[08:31] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:31] <Aagni> mimithebrain: can i now remove the unzipped folder?
[08:31] <profoX`> how is the mplayer firefox plugin called?
[08:31] <sparkleytone> i'm getting atrocious performance with my external HD
[08:31] <mimithebrain> Aagni: if it drops again, well, at least we took care on spontaneous crashes
[08:31] <apokryphos> !info mplayer-mozilla
[08:31] <rsk> profoX`: mplayerplug-in
[08:31] <Subdee> mozilla-mplayer
[08:31] <RonzO> what do you define as a usb guru, sparkleytone ?
[08:31] <ubotu> Package mplayer-mozilla does not exist in dapper
[08:31] <mimithebrain> Aagni: yes, you can
[08:31] <apokryphos> !info mozilla-mplayer

[08:31] <P4W3R> does anyone think like ubotu?
[08:31] <sparkleytone> RonzO: someone who can help me :)
[08:31] <P4W3R> does anyone think like ubotu ?
[08:31] <Subdee> ubotu, it's mozilla-mplayer
[08:31] <livingdaylight> sparkleytone: i have always wondered about external usb hardrives
[08:31] <ubotu> I know nothing about it's mozilla-mplayer - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:32] <fourat> anyone succeded skype on Dapper ? :( :( i have read the wikis in frensh, english ... tutos and nothing :(
[08:32] <profoX`> Subdee: thanks.. didn't fidn it with searching apt-cache
[08:32] <RonzO> we cant help ya if we dont know your problem.  =) watcha need, sparkleytone ?
[08:32] <sparkleytone> "wondered" ?
[08:32] <mimithebrain> Aagni: bye now
[08:32] <sparkleytone> http://paste.lisp.org/display/23016  <--- usb disconnects and slow performance...
[08:32] <whadar> !webmin
[08:32] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[08:32] <Aagni> mimithebrain: kudos man .. thanks
[08:32] <sparkleytone> the disconnect happened one time in the middle of hdparm
[08:32] <sparkleytone> but hasn't happened since
[08:32] <zealot> fourat: I believe skype is in the dapper-commercial repository
[08:32] <livingdaylight> sparkleytone: RonzO is a guru, trust me
[08:32] <ndlovu> I'm getting a *lot* of this error in /var/log/syslog: hdc: cdrom_pc_intr: The drive appears confused (ireason = 0x01). Anyone got some ideas to help me sort it out?
[08:32] <whadar> what? what's wrong with webmin?
[08:33] <fourat> zealot, i've installed it, am facing the skype-habitual linux issues
[08:33] <seanh> Hey ho, are we having a bit of an ubutnu server outage?
[08:33] <whadar> "ubotu: webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it."
[08:33] <RonzO> i am? since when... lol
[08:33] <Subdee> .........
[08:33] <_al_> fourat: what is your problem with skype?
[08:33] <sparkleytone> webmin is just tough to maintain in the debian way
[08:33] <livingdaylight> sparkleytone:  but RonzO is too humble to admit it
[08:33] <fourat> _al_, sound sound sound sound sound
[08:34] <livingdaylight>  :)
[08:34] <sparkleytone> well livingdaylight, i am very very competent and i cannot for the life of me figure this out
[08:34] <RonzO> whats the file system of the drive, sparkleytone
[08:34] <delire_> i'm sure you've been asked this incessantly all day, but any news on *why* servers are down?
[08:34] <zealot> !webmin
[08:34] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[08:34] <Seveas> delire_, no
[08:34] <_al_> fourat: have you tried 1.3 beta?
[08:34] <fourat> _al_, with apt-get ?
[08:34] <delire_> Seveas: interesting, and disturbing.
[08:35] <bthornton> RE: "Many Ubuntu services are down"... where can I find the most recent *.deb for package "X" on one of these mirrors?  All I can find are ISOs.
[08:35] <_al_> fourat: no
[08:35] <fourat> compiling it ?
[08:35] <Seveas> delire_, the people in charge know what's wrong - we don't
[08:35] <fourat> does it work ?
[08:35] <_al_> fourat: http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/13beta.html
[08:35] <_al_> yes
[08:35] <illicit_> Anyone have a mirror i can use?
[08:35] <_al_> it uses alsa
[08:35] <FurryNemesis> naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh
[08:35] <Seveas> illicit_, /topic
[08:35] <sparkleytone> RonzO: that's another symptom of the problem.  i have partitioned it into 3 partitions and have formatted the first two.  both with ext3 w/ dir_index
[08:35] <sparkleytone> formatting took FOREVER
 fourat: I believe skype is in the dapper-commercial repository << you're better off downloading version 1.3 beta from the official skype site
[08:35] <sparkleytone> writing the inode tables
[08:35] <sparkleytone> which basically foreshadowed my performance issues
[08:35] <delire_> Seveas: right.. let's hope it's not down for malevolent reasons.
[08:35] <dyn-afk> the 1.3 beta uses ALSA for sound
[08:35] <Seveas> delire_, it's not
[08:36] <dyn-afk> with the 1.2 version I can't get the sound working but with the 1.3 version it just works :)
[08:36] <zealot> dyn-afk: fourat: I didn't know 1.3 used Alsa. If it does, use that
[08:36] <dyn-afk> yep
[08:36] <fourat> should i get the deb file or the source ?
[08:36] <zealot> dyn-afk: Older skype uses OSS aka /dev/dsp which is deprecated
[08:36] <fourat> wops :)
[08:36] <fourat> there's no source
[08:36] <fourat> hahah
[08:36] <fourat> it's closed
[08:37] <bthornton> With the default Ubuntu servers being down, where can I go to find the most recent openvpn*.deb ?  I've hit up the link at the top of the page but the mirrors only seem to have Ubuntu ISOs.
[08:37] <delire_> Seveas: well that's something of a relief
[08:37] <aeth> try launchpad.net
[08:37] <Seveas> aeth, that's down
[08:37] <santa99> where do i find the shutdown scripts which are used by acpi ?
[08:37] <zealot> bhtornton: change *.archive.ubuntu.com to ie.archive.ubuntu.com in /etc/apt/sources.list
[08:37] <Seveas> santa99, /etc/init.d and /etc/acpi
[08:37] <sparkleytone> whoa the servers are down?  i def noticed the wiki was down last night.  that sucks
[08:37] <profoX`> is mozilla-mplayer gone ? it's not on the be mirror
[08:38] <bthornton> zealot: grazie.
[08:38] <santa99> Seveas, any idea how they are named ?
[08:38] <Seveas> santa99, no
[08:38] <_al_> fourat: have you tried Wengophone?
 dyn-afk: Older skype uses OSS aka /dev/dsp which is deprecated << I know and according from the information on the skype forums it is a pain in the ass
[08:38] <ignem> Q about ubuntu and games: quake2 cannot open /dev/dsp in dapper, howto fix?
[08:38] <whadar> any alternatives to webmin out there?
[08:38] <Bonez56> does anyone know of any good samba guides? i followed one on ubuntuguide.org but I still can't get it to work. when windows users browse my shares it fails authentication, even though they have been added to the samba group and have permission to read/write my shares.
[08:38] <_al_> open source voip software supporting IM services
[08:38] <zealot> santa99: /etc/init.d/acpid and /etc/init.d/acpi-support
[08:39] <zealot> Bonez56: I know the problem
[08:39] <sparkleytone> RonzO: anything?
 should i get the deb file or the source ? << debt file, just double click it once you've downloaded it and press the install button
[08:39] <santa99> zealot,  this are the shutdown scripts ?
[08:39] <tristanmike> !tell Bonez56 about ubuntuguide
[08:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubuntuguide - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:39] <Bonez56> zealot: do you know what I am doing wrong?
[08:39] <Bonez56> !tell tristanmike how to read
[08:39] <ubotu> I know nothing about tell tristanmike how to read - try searching http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi?db=ubuntu
[08:39] <Seveas> Bonez56, don't play with the bot
[08:39] <apokryphos> Bonez56: and, please be kind
[08:40] <zealot> santa99: startup and shutdown scripts are the same, yes.
[08:40] <zealot> Bonez56: sudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf
[08:40] <Bonez56> I will be kind but if he had of read my whole text he would have seen that I have already followed the guide.
[08:40] <tristanmike> Bonez56: ubotu used to say that the site is out of date and can be known to break machines, I was trying to do you a favor, sorry :'(
[08:40] <santa99> zealot, thx
[08:40] <zealot> find where it says: security = user and change it to security = share
[08:40] <zealot> santa99: that took me a bit to figure out
[08:40] <dyn-afk> Bonez56 have you tried the official samba site? it has great documentation with some examples, that might help you
[08:40] <Seveas> tristanmike, apparently ubuntuguide.org has improved
[08:40] <Bonez56> tristanmike: no worries :) cheers anyway
[08:40] <thnee> scons tells me gtk+ >= 2.6 not found, but i have no clue what package to install.. ive searched after gtk+ but only found a bunch of other packages..
[08:40] <apokryphos> tristanmike: it's a wiki now
[08:41] <linuxcrazy_> great!
[08:41] <linuxcrazy_> lol
[08:41] <Bonez56> zealot: ok I have that file open
[08:41] <linuxcrazy_> what file is it?
[08:41] <linuxcrazy_> src?
[08:41] <mimithebrain> anyone: did Aagni have any more problems?
[08:41] <linuxcrazy_> idk
[08:41] <zealot> Bonez56: CTRL K and type security
[08:41] <Bonez56> zealot: security=user
[08:41] <tristanmike> thanx Seveas and apokryphos
[08:42] <zealot> Bonez56: change it to security = share
[08:42] <linuxcrazy_> np
[08:42] <profoX`> !info mplayer-mozilla
[08:42] <linuxcrazy_> lol
[08:42] <ubotu> Package mplayer-mozilla does not exist in dapper
[08:42] <Bonez56> zealot: ok, is that all i need to do?
[08:42] <dyn-afk> if you use security = user make sure you add the user accounts to the samba passwd file with smbpasswd -a username
[08:42] <profoX`> !info mozilla-mplayer
[08:42] <ubotu> mozilla-mplayer: MPlayer-Plugin for Mozilla. In repository multiverse, is optional. Version 3.17-1ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 421 kB, installed size 1500 kB
[08:42] <humanpersonman> !info mozilla-mplayer
[08:42] <zealot> Bonez56: Then try this: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[08:43] <linuxcrazy_> apt-get install Mplayer-plugin
[08:43] <profoX`> i don't have that package in multiverse??
[08:43] <Bonez56> zealot: ok ill be back in a minute ill just test it :)
[08:43] <zealot> Bonez56: with security = share, you dont have to run any extra commands afterwords though
[08:43] <humanpersonman> is is sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer i do believe
[08:43] <linuxcrazy_> apt-get install mozilla-mplayer
[08:43] <linuxcrazy_> sudo*
[08:43] <apokryphos> profoX`: you should. Perhaps you don't have Multiverse enabled then.
[08:43] <linuxcrazy_> ya
[08:43] <profoX`> i have multiverse enabled
[08:44] <apokryphos> profoX`: then you would have that package in synaptic, if you recently updated your sources.
[08:44] <linuxcrazy_> r u sure? check your repos and make sure there's multivers on the univers lines
[08:44] <profoX`> ah no wait.. grrr.. this is so annoying.. i'm using different sources.list file because us mirror is down
[08:44] <nexus___> YA it sucks realy..
[08:44] <linuxcrazy_> lol
[08:44] <nexus___> but what ever :P
[08:44] <profoX`> thanks i have to edit it a bit
[08:44] <nexus___> hm..i wait..

[08:45] <humanpersonman> if you don't care to do through the trouble
[08:45] <linuxcrazy_> where you see Universe, add multiverse next to it I think
[08:45] <livingdaylight> HI GUYS, are the repos still down?
[08:45] <linuxcrazy_> sudo dpkg mozilla-mplayer_3.17-1ubuntu1_i386.deb
[08:45] <profoX`> thanks humanpersonman :) but i already did the trouble ;) but thanks alot
[08:45] <profoX`> very kind ;)
[08:45] <mimithebrain> yesss!!!11oneone
[08:45] <moebius_> us seems to be back
[08:45] <jbholman> i am still not having any luch seeing my roommates itunes shares on banshee or rhythmbox (banshee can see the rhythmbox share i've enabled on the same computer) and i have turned my roommates firewalls completely off (they are both running xp).  Has anyone had luch with either banshee/rhythmbox doing what i am trying to do? if so, did you have to make any adjustments to a config file or something like that?
[08:45] <linuxcrazy_> cool
[08:45] <Jey> is there a specific channel for amd64 users, or do those questions go in here too ?
[08:46] <linuxcrazy_> pastebin!!!!

[08:46] <mimithebrain> we don't know*
[08:46] <Bonez56> zealot: ok that seems to be working a bit better, but when I access a share it automatically shows up as bonez\Guest as the username, and it's greyed out. I can't change it to any other user
[08:46] <profoX`> sybec: no one knows
[08:46] <nexus___> ddos i think lol
[08:46] <nexu> someone didnt paid the bills ?
[08:46] <Seveas> nexus___, no

[08:46] <profoX`> that wouldn't take this long..

[08:46] <mimithebrain> Seveas proFox: why not?
[08:46] <nexus___> yea
[08:46] <linuxcrazy_> lol
[08:46] <nexu> :P
[08:46] <Seveas> there are connectivity problems.
[08:46] <nexus___> and so many ubuntu mirriors are down..

[08:47] <nexus___> *strange
[08:47] <aliljet> !webmin
[08:47] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.

[08:47] <linuxcrazy_> rofl
[08:47] <mimithebrain> that didn't take long
[08:47] <zealot> Bonez56: Then change it back to user and then run smbpasswd -a username for whatever users you want added.
[08:47] <aliljet> is there any alternative to webmin on ubuntu?
[08:47] <Bonez56> zealot: that's how I had it before, but i'll try it again now.
[08:47] <linuxcrazy_> aliljet: don't swear on this server lol
[08:47] <nexus___> out some fat32 ubuntu servers ;) very secure hehe =)
[08:47] <profoX`> humanpersonman was just joking.. as was Kibou.. kick, okay, but ban :/
[08:47] <zealot> Bonez56: But you didn't try smbpasswd -a username I bet
[08:47] <mimithebrain> Seveas: just curious, how many bans today? :)
[08:48] <Bonez56> zealot: yes I did
[08:48] <Seveas> mimithebrain, a few dozen but I cleaned most out alreday
[08:48] <Bonez56> zealot: just testing now
[08:48] <mimithebrain> Seveas: wow...
[08:48] <Bonez56> zealot: it's doing the authentication failure problem again.
[08:48] <phunkalicious> man i haven't been able to hit the repositories for two days now :/
[08:48] <mimithebrain> have they been down that long??
[08:49] <livingdaylight> hey, what happened?
[08:49] <Seveas> mimithebrain, us.archove has been down that long
[08:49] <livingdaylight> Seveas: did you boot me?
[08:49] <nexus___> lol no one know what...
[08:49] <phunkalicious> i dunno, mine just point to archive.ubuntu.com, maybe there are some others i can point too?
[08:49] <mimithebrain> it seemed like friday I was able to get ethereal
[08:49] <Bonez56> zealot: it shows the username as MYPCNAME\mark (mark is the account I just set an smbpasswd for)
[08:49] <Seveas> but that's unrelated to the canonical dc outage
[08:49] <nixternal> primary and backup power failures at the datacenter
[08:49] <mimithebrain> ouch...
[08:49] <mikechml> will using de.archive give me any problems?
[08:49] <phunkalicious> i tried adding us.archive but that didn't resolve :/
[08:50] <zealot> phunkalicious: try ie.archive instead of us
[08:50] <regeya> oy vey
[08:50] <nexu> http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=www.ubuntu.com
[08:50] <phunkalicious> ok zealot

[08:52] <tamale> Hello everyone!  I'm running dapper on gnome and I would like right-click dragging like windows.. so that I can drag with a right-click and choose what i want to happen when i release... is this possible?   I would also like to be able to make alt+right click dragging change window sizes like fluxbox, but this doesn't work because right clicking at all currently brings up the context menu and it's really frustrating!!!  any help would be much a
[08:52] <mamat> hi, i need to change my screen resolution to 75Hz rather than 85 cause otherwise i get bugs in display... changing it fixes it but i need to redo it at every login :S
[08:53] <XVampireX> tamale, yes

[08:53] <joemauch> are the repository servers down?

[08:53] <XVampireX> stjepan, start with a GUI for mednafen
[08:53] <Callahad> tamale: (the menu bit). As far as alt-resizing... I know Metacity can do it, forget how :(
[08:53] <Bonez56> stjepan: can you make a GUI to quickpar?
[08:53] <apokryphos> Bonez56: there already is one

[09:00] <BioVorE> aliljet: the line looks correct to me..
[09:00] <apokryphos> euly: use Google's Cache
[09:00] <Seveas> euly, then wait for the DC to power up again
[09:01] <dingus9> apokryphos: thats my point dude I just want to make it not look for them, it keeps crashing when it comes to the repos, since some are down, I was just woundering if it would could be told to not scan them
[09:01] <apokryphos> dingus9: as I said, I was pretty sure it doesn't by default.
[09:01] <Joyrider> jonass did you install linux-restricted-modules for -26 as well?
[09:01] <mikechml> dingus9: it should skip it if you leave it long enough

[09:02] <Joyrider> there is no detailed information because people are busy working to fix it!
[09:02] <Viper550> Everything is down, even the Wiki!
[09:02] <ozubu> ok - that's really annoying what happend to security servers ? I can't install any package 2day...
[09:02] <mikechml> panic!
[09:02] <ozubu> apokryphos, you know what is it ?

[09:03] <ozubu> apokryphos, 10x
[09:03] <ozubu> apokryphos, since how long is this ?
[09:03] <rexbron> How does Xgl or aiglx affect battery life?
[09:03] <Seveas> linuxboyfrien1, if I say nowhere, I mean nowhere
[09:03] <troy1of2> Ubuntu is probably being attacked by hackers from Microsoft....ticked off for taking too many users away. ;-)
[09:03] <mrstocks> What is the package to install the ms ttf fonts like verdana ect ?
[09:03] <geekdom> Hey I am installing xubuntu and it does not like the video.  I can fix it later and would like to just do a text install.  Is that possable ?
[09:03] <grimzy> security.ubuntu.com down?
[09:03] <Seveas> rexbron, badly
[09:03] <apokryphos> ozubu: just over a day I believe
[09:03] <Symgeosis> euly, Yeah. Thats normal about the keyboard. Just go through the steps.
[09:03] <Viper550> You heard about that new GTK engine, Murrine?
[09:03] <Joyrider> mrstocks: msttcorefonts
[09:04] <rexbron> hmmm
[09:04] <mrstocks> thx
[09:04] <Qwell> So, I'm doing a netboot...  and when it goes to get the installer components, it says it can't find kernel modules that match my running kernel
[09:04] <rexbron> guess installing it is a bad idea?
[09:04] <Jeandre> Screensaver comes up when viewing DVD using xine. Where can I change this?
[09:04] <wayward> rexbron, I'd say Xgl conserves battery life over CPU-intensive raster-based X servers. O:-)
[09:04] <eniac_petrov> ubuntu.com not works also!
[09:04] <euly> apokryphos: theres no google cache of it...
[09:04] <FunnyLookinHat> so uh, when is the us ubuntu repo going to be back up?   lol
[09:04] <dingus9> rexbron: I have been running it for about a month aiglx, my batter life doesn't seem to have changed much
[09:04] <apokryphos> euly: which page?
[09:04] <Qwell> It worked fine last night, with the archive.ubuntu.com mirror
[09:04] <apokryphos> it's down now
[09:04] <linuxboyfrien1> Seveas: then how do people know that the services are down (as it is set as topic today)?
[09:04] <Qwell> yes, and I'm using a different one
[09:05] <eniac_petrov> Seveas , I know
[09:05] <mrstocks> E: Package msttcorefonts has no installation candidate

[09:06] <Viper550> Excuse me?
[09:06] <euly> still looking for info on how to set the screen resolution to 1280x1024.
[09:06] <ozubu> apokryphos, so is ubuntu servers under attack or something like this ?
[09:06] <Warbo> !fixres
[09:06] <Seveas> HedgeMage, now that you're not staff I can even kick you, tempting!

[09:06] <PacketScan> euly, xorg.conf?
[09:06] <BioVorE> euly: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:06] <apokryphos> ozubu: no, nothing like that.
[09:06] <HedgeMage> Seveas: You could kick me when I was staff, too, so it's not nearly so interesting :P
[09:06] <Ademan> Warbo: i dunno, i guess i should have said "rather than panels is enlightenment's "main menu" a dock?"
[09:06] <ozubu> apokryphos, so how come so many servers are down ?
[09:07] <HedgeMage> Seveas: of course, if it is still interesting, go for it, you'll need the stress relief after today :P
[09:07] <euly> One question before I continue with the resolution thingy: how do I disable these "so and so has joined #ubuntu" lines in irssi?
[09:07] <Warbo> Ademan: Enlightenment uses a click-on-the-desktop menu like Fluxbox
[09:07] <Seveas> HedgeMage, hehe
[09:07] <Joyrider> ozubu: because they are all in the same datacenter, and presumably there is a big problem at that datacenter
[09:07] <bigfoot1> how can i play an FLV file?
 Warbo: i dunno, i guess i should have said "rather than panels is enlightenment's "main menu" a dock?" << somewhat
[09:07] <Warbo> bigfoot1: MPlayer
[09:07] <dyn-afk> more like icons on a desktop
[09:07] <mrstocks> heh ... all pinging out..
[09:08] <euly> PacketScan, BioVorE: Yes, I already put "1280" in the modes lines, but that didnt help :(
[09:08] <Cody`> Does the notice about down ubuntu services include some of the repos?
[09:08] <dyn-afk> enlightenment is a very simple window manager Ademan
[09:08] <Warbo> Cody`: Yes
[09:08] <Seveas> Cody`, yes
[09:08] <ozubu> Joyrider, so would you recommend editting sources.list to get over the problem ?
[09:08] <Cody`> Thanks
[09:08] <Symgeosis> Back to planet mirror to get ndis-wrapper debs I suppose...
[09:08] <Warbo> dyn-afk: Well, E17 is a bit weird
[09:08] <Jeandre> Screensaver comes up when viewing DVD using xine. Where can I change this?
[09:08] <Joyrider> ozubu: yes you can switch to de. or ie. or another mirror, but there is no mirror for security
[09:08] <HedgeMage> euly: /set ignore #ubuntu joins parts
[09:08] <BioVorE> euly: there is a section that defines modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" etc
 dyn-afk: Well, E17 is a bit weird << KDE is weird :P
[09:08] <Warbo> Jeandre: I find gnome-screensaver is a bit buggy with that, xscreensaver works better since most apps are used to it
[09:08] <skavenge> Symgeosis: ndiswrapper is on the CD even if you cant get it out of the repos right now
[09:08] <malv> so what caused the service outage?
[09:09] <Cody`> Joyrider: What are the mirrors, do you know off hand? I would like to install azureus.
[09:09] <Warbo> dyn-afk: KDE with E17 as WM........
[09:09] <euly> BioVorE: So what do I have to do?
[09:09] <ozubu> Joyrider, there is one mirror for security ?
[09:09] <BioVorE> euly: Might want to check your monitor's vertical and horizontal sync values as well
[09:09] <mikechml> i don't think anyone here knows malv
[09:09] <tich> does anyone know if the repositories off-line?
[09:09] <dyn-afk> you're scaring me now Warbo :P
[09:09] <Seveas> malv, we don't know - only the people who need to know, know
[09:09] <ayeee> Hi, ive go a strange problem. My Mouse1 act as "Page up/Scroll up" - when i push mouse1 in my terminal it scrolls up - anyone has a solution for this?
[09:09] <Joyrider> Cody`: try de.archive.ubuntu.com
[09:09] <mikechml> they are tich
[09:09] <euly> BioVorE: Its a TFT
[09:09] <Cody`> Joyrider: Okay
[09:09] <euly> HedgeMage: Where do I put that? I tried it and still get the lines.
[09:10] <BioVorE> euly: it still has a horiz sync and vertical refersh
[09:10] <ozubu> Joyrider, you think there is only "one" security server ?
[09:10] <Jeandre> warbo: xscreensaver: couldn't find it Add/Remove applications, or System|Preferences System|Administration
[09:10] <bigfoot1> Warbo: ty
[09:10] <HedgeMage> euly: sorry, my mistake, it's /ignore not /set ignore
