[03:30] <RandomDude16> im having some issues

[03:30] <RegalEagle> osa: I got the Wind download, thanks.
[03:30] <RandomDude16> 2.) cant get frostwire to work
[03:30] <RandomDude16> ><
[03:30] <RegalEagle> Wine*
[03:30] <jrib> RandomDude16: pastebin the errors you get with 'frostwire' in a terminal
[03:30] <jrib> ubotu: tell RandomDude16 about printing
[03:31] <RandomDude16> Yes I know it's done with cups.
[03:31] <dcraven> mc44, could he not mount his / partition and chroot into it from any terminal on any LiveCD?
[03:31] <RandomDude16> i should take a screenshot
[03:31] <RandomDude16> and pastebin the errors
[03:31] <jrib> RandomDude16: no, copy the text please
[03:32] <mc44> dcraven: you see this is why people who dont know what they are talking about, like me, shouldnt be allowed to help people...
[03:32] <dcraven> mc44, hehe.. You're doing fine :)
[03:33] <Trae> ugh
[03:33] <RandomDude16> http://i11.tinypic.com/3y2laf9.jpg and http://pastebin.ca/239851
[03:33] <Trae> it used to be easy to get nvidia stuff going
[03:33] <Trae> now you've got to wade through synaptic
[03:33] <Trae> which is a nightmare.
[03:33] <jiphex> so mount, chroot and passwd then?
[03:33] <jiphex> from a livecd
[03:33] <dcraven> jiphex, that's what I'd do.
[03:33] <jiphex> ok
[03:34] <jiphex> which livecds are good for lvm mounting then?
[03:34] <mc44> jiphex: and he actually knows what hes talking about :p
[03:34] <jrib> RandomDude16: did frostwire ever load?  Are you on edgy?
[03:34] <mc44> jiphex: still manually editing shadow is more fun :)
[03:34] <elmargol> frostwire has a broken start script on edgy
[03:34] <RandomDude16> yes it loads
[03:34] <mc44> l33t hax0r
[03:34] <RandomDude16> and yes I am

[03:34] <RandomDude16> when it loads
[03:34] <RandomDude16> i dont see the stuff
[03:34] <RandomDude16> just look at the screenshot
[03:35] <RandomDude16> http://i11.tinypic.com/3y2laf9.jpg
[03:35] <jrib> yeah I see that, that's weird
[03:35] <RandomDude16> and as for the printer
[03:35] <RandomDude16> it just doesnt show the usb ports ill take a screenshot
[03:35] <Zambezi> Anyone tried: rtorrent-0.6.4?
[03:35] <jrib> RandomDude16: how did you install frostwire?
[03:36] <RandomDude16> automatix2
[03:36] <dv5237> i just installed evilwm but when i tried to change the session from gnome to evilwm at the inlog screen it issnt listed

[03:39] <RandomDude16> no.
[03:39] <julien> hi, i con't share my printer with cups (it prints right from local test but text from others computers...)
[03:40] <jrib> RandomDude16: try that.  By the way I notice some transparency going on in your screenshots, taht might be related to the frostwire problem (try disabling and see if it works)

[03:44] <Naked_Snake> Sweet
[03:44] <penguin42> Naked_Snake: There also seems to be a package called 'penggy' - 'connects to AOL via modem or TCP/IP'
[03:44] <kalikiana> Naked_Snake: You could just as well enter the dialin parameters into the default tools...
[03:45] <revoker> Naked_Snake: Google said "PengAOL is simply a Linux replacement for the AOL software."
[03:45] <Naked_Snake> Oh
[03:45] <Naked_Snake> kalikiana : you sure?

[03:56] <Justy-> Is Edgy support given here ?
[03:56] <kalikiana> kingace: what exactly are you searching for? you might put 'gksudo' in a desktop file
[03:56] <rikai> Justy-, edgy is a stable release now, so yes.
[03:56] <rikai> kingace, gnome? get a nautilus script for sudo.
[03:57] <cherubiel> kingace: gksudo

[04:00] <kung> someone around, who is familiar with upstart?
[04:01] <kung> where do I need to place start scripts?
[04:01] <n00mz> hi, can someone help me with this please? http://rafb.net/paste/results/BW1Ujz35.html (cairo has been installed)
[04:01] <Icarosaurus> someone has working fglrx 8.30.3 drivers?
[04:02] <dcraven> n00mz, install the -dev package for cairo?
[04:03] <rikai> kingace, well, guess you'll have to wait for it to come back up ^.^;
[04:03] <hoelk_> can anyone help me? i want to mark a fodler on a fat32 hard disc as hidden
[04:03] <hoelk_> (renaming to .fodlername is not an option)
[04:03] <n00mz> dcraven, the one I installed I got off gtk.org.  its package they said was needed
[04:03] <kingace> rikai: yeah, thanks for your help anyway though
[04:04] <n00mz> dcraven, I'll try get the -dev though
[04:04] <kingace> ill bookmark that
[04:04] <rikai> kingace, sourceforge as a whole seems to be down, should be back in a few hours. :)
[04:04] <kingace> yup
[04:05] <SeaD> Hi all, i need help installing Ubuntu trough a netboot image. Is it possible to setup a local mirror, because the ubuntu setup want's to access the internet and download the needed files from there. I dont'have a Internet connection on that networl... any suggestions?
[04:05] <qubix____> anyone know why if i run beryl/xgl my gl/3d screensavers wont run but if i choose metacity/gnome as window manager they will?????
[04:06] <penguin42> SeaD: I'd have thought you could do it with a mirror - but I'm not sure how; have you considered installing on another machine somewhere more convenient than installing the image with partimage or the like?
[04:06] <apokryphos> !beryl | qubix____
[04:06] <ubotu> qubix____: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/  -  Please see #ubuntu-xgl for help with beryl.
[04:07] <apokryphos> SeaD: I think there's instructions on the wiki, have you checked /msg ubotu install ?
[04:07] <n00mz> dcraven, cairo and cairo-dev are already installed
[04:07] <penguin42> what an odd name for a window manager
[04:07] <lupine_85> and obviously, "metacity" makes sense :p
[04:07] <apokryphos> penguin42: 90% of GNU/Linux names are odd 8)
[04:07] <apokryphos> kwin does, w00t
[04:07] <lupine_85> GNU's Not Unix
[04:07] <lupine_85> so ner
[04:08] <lupine_85> :p
[04:08] <penguin42> apokryphos: Well true
[04:08] <dcraven> n00mz, those missing defs are defined in /usr/include/cairo/cairo.h
[04:08] <SeaD> Is it also possible to mount (hd0,0)/ubuntu as a CD-ROM device in GRUB?
[04:08] <lupine_85> it depends whether you asociate beryl with "ur gran" oR "pretty sparkly", I guess
[04:08] <apokryphos> penguin42: they're just using crystal-like names for all their components; theme manager is "emerald"
[04:09] <penguin42> SeaD: How do you mean as a cdrom?
[04:09] <lupine_85> there's a bad joke about beryl crashing, but.. yeah
[04:09] <rikai> SeaD, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet perhaps?
[04:09] <dcraven> n00mz, which is in libcairo2-dev
[04:09] <Justy-> Thanks, so I have a small problem I think.. When I try to upgrade to Edgy from 6.06 LTS with ' gksu "update-manager -c" ' , I get an error : Failed to fetch http://tr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/multiverse/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1) .. I have searched google and find only one "thread" about it but I was not able to understand.Could you help me solve this problem?
[04:10] <Tonren> Oh man... Edgy is blazing fast.  This was worth the trouble!
[04:10] <SeaD> penguin42, i want to map or mount a map like (hd0,0)/ubuntu from my hdd as a CD-ROM device... is this possible? Cus, my machine does not have a CD-ROM device
[04:10] <SeaD> then i can just copy the CD files on my HDD in the map C:\ubuntu\
[04:10] <lupine_85> Justy-: temporary solution would be to comment out the deb-src line in sources.list which includes the multiverse repository
[04:10] <SeaD> the grub (DOS version)
[04:11] <n00mz> dcraven, yeah its there.  I'm not experienced with libraries and such.  how do I get gtk to recognise that?
[04:11] <iter> SeaD: how you going to copy from cd if you don't have a cdrom ?
[04:11] <SeaD> iter, network ;)
[04:11] <SeaD> Windows 98
[04:11] <SeaD> ;P
[04:11] <n00mz> recognise the cairo defs, I mean
[04:11] <Hotkey> HI Newbie here - got my cd - want to install on XP PC - will the install set up a dual boot for me?
[04:11] <lupine_85> wow, win98
[04:11] <SeaD> I'm able to copy the files...
[04:11] <SeaD> :)
[04:11] <lupine_85> :/me pats his 95OSR2 CD
[04:11] <penguin42> SeaD: Sorry I'm confused - are you saying your files in a directory or in a .iso file?
[04:11] <rikai> SeaD, in fact, from what i glanced at, it sounds almost exactly like what you want.
[04:12] <SeaD> penguin42, i've coppied the CD files on a HDD in C:\ubuntu\
[04:12] <iter> SeaD: http://wiki.africasource2.tacticaltech.org/post/main/02kq1ct2pXNBBsXY
[04:12] <Justy-> lupine_85, Thanks very much for your prompt help =)
[04:12] <SeaD> then i installed grub (DOS version)
[04:12] <SeaD> i boot in GRUB
[04:12] <lupine_85> np
[04:12] <SeaD> en now i want to start the CD setup from my HDD
[04:12] <mepa|Yancho> anyone can guide me in which folder this file is mbstring.so pls
[04:12] <SeaD> this is possible and i did.. but the setup asks for a CD later and that's the problem
[04:12] <SeaD> :)
[04:12] <penguin42> SeaD: Ah I don't think you can do that
[04:13] <SeaD> hmmm
[04:13] <SeaD> and can you boot an .iso file in GRUB?
[04:13] <rikai> SeaD, so you want to install ubuntu from the iso on your hard drive?
[04:13] <Paddy_EIRE> for some reason the "add/remove" option at the bottom of the "Applications" menu has disappeared, how can I get it back
[04:14] <Hotkey> HI Newbie here - got my cd - want to install on XP PC - will the install set up a dual boot for me?
[04:14] <rikai> SeaD, easy enough, it seems.
[04:14] <lupine_85> Hotkey: yep
[04:14] <SeaD> rikai, any way is accepted as long it works ;) So yes, if i can boot an ISO trough GRUB in dos it will solve my problem
[04:14] <rikai> SeaD, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=28948
[04:14] <iter> SeaD: you can definitely boot an iso from grub
[04:14] <lupine_85> If I were you though, I'd do the partitioning using partition magic
[04:15] <Justy-> Paddy_EIRE, Can you see Alarcate Menu Editor under Applications->Accessories ( sorry for the wrong translation if there is )
[04:15] <lupine_85> IME, dapper's ntfsresize chokes on the occasional partition and breaks it
[04:15] <lupine_85> no idea what edgy's is like, but better safe than sorry i suggest
[04:15] <Justy-> Paddy_EIRE, Alacarte*
[04:15] <Hotkey> lup - eek I dont want to break anything!?
[04:15] <Paddy_EIRE> justy the option for that add/remove to be visible aint there
[04:15] <SeaD> iter, also an iso that's on C:\ubuntu\ like C:\ubuntu\myubuntu.iso ???
[04:15] <lupine_85> :D
[04:15] <SeaD> is this supported in the GRUB (DOS version)?
[04:15] <rikai> SeaD, looks to be.
[04:16] <lupine_85> Just use partition magic or /something/ in Windows to resize your partition before the install
[04:16] <Hotkey> lup ok thx
[04:16] <lupine_85> then there'll be absolutely no chance (rather than a very small chance) of the installer breaking your XP partition
[04:16] <penguin42> rikai: Now you've made me curious - how does the booted Linux see the image?
[04:17] <Justy-> Paddy_EIRE, http://justyy.by.ru/EkranG%f6r%fcnt%fcs%fc-Alacarte%20Menu%20Editor.png here it is?
[04:17] <Paddy_EIRE> Justy-: any ideas
[04:17] <mepa|Yancho> anyone can guide me in which folder this file is mbstring.so (a php extension library) pls
[04:18] <iter> mepa|Yancho: do 'locate mbstring.so'
[04:18] <mepa|Yancho> its not on my box iter - i tried it ..
[04:18] <Paddy_EIRE> Justy-: yeah i know it aint there anymore in my applications in alacarte
[04:18] <rikai> Penguin, i'm not quite sure, you'll ahve to read the thread i guess.
[04:18] <rikai> i just found the thread afetr a quick search :P
[04:18] <Spee_Der> Wow...
[04:18] <Spee_Der> That wasn't funny....
[04:18] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: try 'apt-file search mbstring.so'
[04:19] <dv5237> is it possible to install ubuntu-server and then xorg+wm to minimize the installation?
[04:19] <mepa|Yancho> nothing either coNP
[04:20] <doccy> im trying to mount a usb pendrive but linux keeps telling me theres not a fat filesystem on the device - any ideas how i can diagnose this problem?
[04:20] <zmm> my ubuntu is only showing and running 640X480 resolution.. xorg is fine. in device section it's showing identifier as "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon Xpress 200 (RC410)"
[04:20] <SeaD> rikai, hmmm... can you give me an url with an example that boots a iso from C:\ ??? trough the GRUB DOS version?
[04:20] <Ambimom> anyone using parallels?
[04:21] <penguin42> rikai: OK, I think from that thread it is actually doing a net install; it's just running the installer from the CD image
[04:21] <Justy-> Paddy_EIRE, Sorry then.. Actually I am a newbie at ubuntu.. sorry for my that silly behaviour
[04:21] <probose> how do i watch wmv files in ubuntu?
[04:21] <rambo3> doccy, unplugg and plug in usb
[04:21] <Varanger> penguin42: can it be done???
[04:21] <Ambimom> probose:  try videolan player
[04:21] <Paddy_EIRE> Justy-: no probs, thx anyway :)
[04:21] <rikai> Penguin, which, is exactly what SeaD needs, no?
[04:21] <doccy> rambo3, ive tried unplugging
[04:21] <Ambimom> probose: have you downloaded codecs?
[04:22] <Varanger> SeaD: Do you want to install Ubuntu from the sources?
[04:22] <zmm> yesterday I installed linux-686 for ati drivers as explained on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and suggested by someone on this channel. but when i rebooted to linux-686 kernel it got stuck at mounting root file system
[04:22] <probose> Ambimom no, i just searched for "wmv" in synaptic manager but i dont found anything
[04:22] <penguin42> rikai: I'm not sure - it does mean he'll have to download everything rather than actually be as if he had just run the CD
[04:22] <rambo3> doccy, dmesg
[04:22] <Ambimom> probose:  install automatix; load codecs
[04:23] <SeaD> anyhow, as long as i don't need to use a CD-device
[04:23] <Ambimom> probose:  or check the link to restricted formats from the website
[04:23] <SeaD> and internet access
[04:23] <doccy> rambo3, it says everything is fine - it's seen the usb drive and everything
[04:23] <probose> Ambimom i think i gonna download vlc
[04:23] <doccy> rambo3, but when i mount it as a vfat, it says the filesystem couldnt be found on it
[04:23] <mepa|Yancho> coNP iter : shall i use this rpm ? http://rpm.sh-linux.org/rpm-2004/target/SRPMS/php-4.3.8-2.1.src.rpm and if yes how to install it ?
[04:23] <SeaD> setting up a local mirror can do the work too :) Then I could use the netboot... and set as mirror my local mirror
[04:23] <rambo3> doccy, does it work anywhere else
[04:23] <Ambimom> probose: vlc should work but you should also load codecs
[04:24] <SeaD> but i don't know how to setup te mirror structure...
[04:24] <bobulatorm> hey there im trying to get ubuntu to install on a HP pavillion. when i try and run the install CD, it just starts loading the kernel and then resets the computer. any ideas why? ta!
[04:24] <doccy> rambo3, well i only have windows boxes aside from this linux box, and there it works fine
[04:24] <probose> what is automatix?
[04:24] <Agent> hi
[04:24] <probose> ambimom
[04:24] <Ambimom> probose: it is a great tool that loads the stuff you need that is not on ubuntu install
[04:24] <SeaD> rikai, if i boot from an ISO locally, will the setup see the iso as a CD-device?
[04:24] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: what exactly do you want?
[04:24] <rambo3> sead apt-get install dpkg-multicd
[04:24] <Spee_Der> Hello Agent.
[04:25] <Ambimom> probose:  the codecs are proprietary which is why they don't come with cd
[04:25] <SeaD> rambo3, ??? :
[04:25] <mepa|Yancho> coNP to have this library installed : mbstring.so
[04:25] <rambo3>  SEad google Setup your own local deb pool
[04:25] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: it is included in PHP by default
[04:25] <Ambimom> probose: search ubuntu forum for automatix; there's a link
[04:25] <probose> Ambimom ok, thanks
[04:25] <mepa|Yancho> coNP its not in the folder /ext
[04:26] <coNP> because it is compiled in
[04:26] <mepa|Yancho> so i just need to add the line in the config file and reboot php ?
[04:26] <hhmbuk_> when ubuntu setup , ubuntu didn't asked me root passwd ;;
[04:26] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: what line?
[04:26] <zmm> my ubuntu is only showing and running 640X480 resolution.. xorg is fine. in device section it's showing identifier as "ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon Xpress 200 (RC410)" yesterday I installed linux-686 for ati drivers as explained on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI and suggested by someone on this channel. but when i rebooted to linux-686 kernel it got stuck at mounting root file system
[04:26] <penguin42> Ambimom: I know quite a few people who use it on Macs - I'm not sure if they have Ubuntu working on it
[04:27] <mepa|Yancho> coNP : extension=mbstring.so
[04:27] <vidd> hhmbuk_, ubuntu will never ask to set up root password
[04:27] <Ambimom> penguin: I want to use it on XP to load Ubuntu because my upgrade to Edgy was disaster
[04:27] <rikai> SeaD, sorry, i'm in way over my head.
[04:27] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: maybe you don't even need that line
[04:27] <jrib> !root | hhmbuk_
[04:27] <ubotu> hhmbuk_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:27] <vidd> hhmbuk_, you should never use root for anything anyway
[04:27] <penguin42> Ambimom: I've used VMWare server for trying edgy - it's free, worth a try
[04:27] <rikai> rambo3, he's trying to install ubuntu without using a cd, i dont think he had another ubuntu install handy.
[04:27] <dv5237> is it possible to install ubuntu-server and then xorg+wm to minimize the installation?
[04:28] <penguin42> dv5237: Yes
[04:28] <mepa|Yancho> coNP i need it coz its giving an error on a premade script and in the help file it says i need to have that .so and that line in the ocnfig
[04:28] <zmm> my basic problem is 640X480 resolution. I want to run ubuntu on high res...so plz help me
[04:28] <jrib> !nvidia | zmm
[04:28] <ubotu> zmm: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:28] <Spee_Der> zmm:
[04:28] <Ambimom> penguin:  I have always done dual boot, but edgy ruined that! LOL
[04:28] <penguin42> dv5237: You can install each of the packages later - although some of them might pull loads of other stuff in
[04:28] <penguin42> Ambimom: Oops - have you bugreported that?
[04:28] <Spee_Der> zmm: In the xorg.conf, have you changed the default depth from 1 to say 16 or 24 ?
[04:29] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: then try it
[04:29] <aicila> I have a silly question: I connected to a windows machine to pull some files off of, and I put a folder to that share on my desktop.  :P I can't seem to find a way to remove it, any ideas?
[04:29] <mepa|Yancho> coNP and how to reboot php pls ?
[04:29] <Ambimom> penguin:  do you find that VMWare runs ok or is it slow when both OS running?  and yes, I have reported edgy problems
[04:29] <mepa|Yancho> - /etc/init.d/apache restart <- like this ?
[04:30] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: yes, altough 'reload' might be enough
[04:30] <penguin42> Ambimom: If you have enough RAM it is ok; I found by setting the VMWare to allow it to swap all of its memory out then it didn't slow my host down; although I've only got 512MB
[04:30] <dv5237> penguin42: what do i need to install for xorg since there are load of xorg packages
[04:30] <zmm> yeah! i did change default depth to 16 yesterday...but to no effect
[04:30] <Spee_Der> Hmmm
[04:30] <mepa|Yancho> coNP : bash: /etc/init.d/apache: No such file or directory :(
[04:30] <vidd> aicila, remove the files from the folder so it is EMPTY
[04:30] <Mikel0> !acrobat
[04:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acrobat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:30] <aicila> ah but I can't do that vidd, these files are on another computer and need to stay there. I just need the folder off of my desktop
[04:30] <vidd> aicila, then you can deleye it with sudo
[04:30] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: maybe apache2?
[04:31] <Mikel0> !aread
[04:31] <mepa|Yancho> ow oops lol :)
[04:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aread - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:31] <Ambimom> penguin:  I was thinking of 226 and 226...hmmm...so should set for 512?
[04:31] <Mikel0> !areader
[04:31] <SeaD> I've also installed the Ubuntu base system on my HDD trough VMware. Cus the VMware sees the HDD as an SCI device and not as a IDE it changes the boot settings... Now if I get the HDD back into the laptop and try to boot I get a kernel panic, because the root fs is set like: root=/dev/sda0. Is it possible to boot anyway by changing the root to something else like root=/dev/hda1 or something?
[04:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about areader - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:31] <penguin42> dv5237: There is a package called xserver-xorg  which I think might pull all the relavant ones in
[04:31] <dv5237> penguin42: thanks
[04:31] <penguin42> SeaD: Yeh should do - but I'm also fairly sure you can tell VMWare to present the disc as IDE
[04:32] <zmm> ubutu:why do i need to install ati/NVIDIA
[04:32] <SeaD> penguin42, nope, not possible...
[04:32] <SeaD> as far as i know
[04:32] <mepa|Yancho> coNP same error still
[04:32] <penguin42> Sead: I'm sure the vmware server I've got here lets you do IDE discs....
[04:33] <zmm> ubutu: will installing ati/nvidia solve the problem
[04:33] <SeaD> penguin42, i use the workstation version :)
[04:33] <SeaD> maybe the server can do the work
[04:33] <zmm> ubutu: if so how
[04:33] <jrib> zmm: do you have an nvidia/ati card?
[04:33] <penguin42> SeaD: Ah I've not tried Workstation in ages
[04:34] <SeaD> penguin42, but is it also possible to solve the problem in GRUB by changing the root params?
[04:34] <mepa|Yancho> coNP however now : Multibyte Support 	enabled - so it is enabled - then its a script problem :) so thanks alot for ur help
[04:34] <aicila> anyone know how to remove a shared windows folder that I can't seem to get off my desktop?
[04:34] <coNP> mepa|Yancho: you're welcome
[04:34] <penguin42> SeaD: Yeh you should just be able to change it to /dev/hda?  and with edgy because it uses UUIDs I don't even think you'll have to change your fstab
[04:34] <Spee_Der> aicila: Did you try right click on that ICON to see if the send to trash option would work ?
[04:35] <aicila> yup, it doesn;t
[04:35] <vidd> aicila, DID YOU NOT SEE WHAT I TOLD YOU>
[04:35] <Spee_Der> darn
[04:35] <SeaD> penguin42, so root=/dev/hda should do the work?
[04:35] <Spee_Der> Please don't yell, it hurts my eyes.
[04:35] <penguin42> SeaD: No, if it was sda1 then hda1 should do it
[04:35] <aicila> I did vidd, but this folder isn't actually on this system.  you can even look in /home/me/Desktop and the folders aren't there
[04:35] <vidd> aicila, you remove all files from the folder
[04:36] <zmm> jrib: I don't know. how can i know if i have nvidia/ati card or some else
[04:36] <penguin42> damn - my vmware server install won't actually start up on edgy
[04:36] <aicila> there has got to be a way to remove this share without having to remove all of the files on the remote computer
[04:36] <jrib> zmm: type 'lspci' in a terminal
[04:36] <vidd> then type sudo rmdir /home/me/Desktop/.[foldername]
[04:36] <Linuxpoa> Hello peoples
[04:37] <SeaD> penguin42, i tried that too, (root=/dev/hda1) bot still kernel panic
[04:37] <ramvi> When installing amarok without kde installed, media devices doesn't work. What package am I missing?
[04:37] <penguin42> aicila: Are you trying to stop your machine sharing it or attempting to share off anther one?
[04:37] <iami89> hi there
[04:37] <vidd> aicila, remove the share properties from the other computer
[04:37] <penguin42> SeaD: Ah
[04:37] <aicila> penguin: stop it from sharing it
[04:37] <aicila> erm, I mean penguin42
[04:37] <penguin42> aicila: And it is sharing it to be visible to Windows (using Samba?)
[04:37] <Linuxpoa> My K6 with ubuntu-server reboot in the load ! One help ?
[04:37] <test88> if I masquerade anywhere to anywhere in postrouting should all internal traffice be able to go out to the internet?
[04:38] <dv5237> how can i get a list of all the installed packages? (preff. in the CLI)
[04:38] <aicila> it's a windows share that I accessed through Ubuntu, I didn't actually setup samba for it, so it's Windows -> Linux, not Linux -> Windows
[04:38] <penguin42> dv5237: dpkg -l
[04:38] <tristanmike> Hi, I'm having some major problems. When I log into my Ubuntu, after about 10-15 seconds, everything locks up. I don't have anything aside from the defaults under "Sessions" and I can't determine if something I've installed is causing this. I have my System Monitor app in the panel, and it doesn't record any strange cpu/ram/HD/etc. issues. Where can I start to look for the problem. Thanx for any assistance.
[04:38] <dv5237> penguin42: thats installed?!
[04:38] <vidd> aicila, but it IS linux to windows
[04:38] <penguin42> aicila: Ah, so you should be able to do on the LInux   umount /whereever/itwas/mounted
[04:38] <philip_> rpm -qa ;-) redhat days
[04:38] <vidd> aicila, you MUST turn off the share properties for the folder
[04:39] <beasty> lol philip_
[04:39] <aicila> ah unmount, that would be the command I'm looking for
[04:39] <penguin42> dv5237: dpkg -l | grep "^ii"    (I don't know if there is a neater way!)
[04:39] <penguin42> oh
[04:39] <tristanmike> aicila: it's "umount" not "unmount"
[04:39] <aicila> oops, thanks tristanmike!
[04:39] <SeaD> penguin42, suggestions??? A How-to on installing Ubuntu trough a ISO from local HDD (Partiotion 2 D:\) can help me too... ;)
[04:40] <tristanmike> aicila: I make the same typo all the time :P
[04:40] <aicila> any idea where that mount is? it's not a hidden directory in my desktop unfortunatly
[04:40] <Zer0Her0> hey is it possible to change the modifier keys around?
[04:40] <test88> aicila  "which mount"
[04:41] <aicila> perfect, thanks test88!
[04:41] <Kengur> hi, how do i install ubuntu with "noapic"? were does it belong in the init string?
[04:41] <sarixe> argh, i messed up this time.
[04:41] <penguin42> SeaD: I'm not sure to be honest - I'd start with the alternate CD, probably copy the contents out of the ISO onto your hard disc as a directory, use that GRUB trick to boot the installer and then point the installer to get it its files off the hard disc
[04:41] <sarixe> i changed the resolution and crashed X
[04:41] <Arron> how do i get bcm43xx_fwcutter instaled on a laptop, for wireless if i cant connect ubuntu to the web? and how do i blacklist the bcm43xx driver forit to work?
[04:42] <sarixe> and then when i went to login again, X crashed.
[04:42] <sarixe> kdm works
[04:42] <penguin42> Arron: Got a USB key fob?
[04:42] <sarixe> just not my user name.
[04:42] <sarixe> where's the config file, so i can fix this?
[04:42] <Arron> penguin42: yes, where can i download it from?
[04:42] <gu014> is there a GUi in ubuntu that lists all currently running apps?
[04:42] <penguin42> Arron: Ah that I don't know
[04:43] <sarixe> gu014: KSysGuard
[04:43] <sarixe> gu014: or, if you're in gnome, System Monitor
[04:43] <tristanmike> gu014: System-Administration-System Monitor
[04:43] <Arron> how do i "blacklist" a kernel module so it wont load?
[04:44] <sarixe> how do i edit my user's screen resolution config from a command line?
[04:44] <gu014> sarixe,tristanmike, thank you very much
[04:44] <penguin42> Arron: The nasty hack is just to rename the .ko file
[04:44] <svu_> where could I find f-spot 0.2.2 for edgy eft?
[04:44] <sarixe> gu014: np
[04:44] <SeaD> penguin42, that's exactly what i did, but the setup asks for a cd later. that's the problem. if there is a way to point a map on the HDD where i loaded the setup from as a CD-device then that will do the work, but i don't know if i can mount a HDD MAP as a CD device trough grub. or trough the ubuntu setup by using the console. suggestions?
[04:44] <Kengur> how do i pass "noapic" when installing?
[04:45] <Kengur> should i insert as it 1 parameter?
[04:45] <ronaldo> Kengur: in the grub menu you can choose to apend parameters
[04:45] <sarixe> how do i edit my user's screen resolution config from a command line?
[04:45] <penguin42> SeaD: Are you sure you are using the alternate CD (and told it to use the mounted hard disc?) - I'd hope it didn't try and get a CD - but if it does I'm not sure of a fix
[04:45] <melon> is it possible to have desktop icons "without" the name (text) under it - on the actual ubuntu desktop?
[04:45] <zmm> jrib: i'm seeing a list as a result of lspci but none of the entry is saying ati/nvidia
[04:45] <Kengur> ronaldo: i need to install from cd with that option
[04:46] <jrib> zmm: what does it say for vga compatible controller
[04:46] <dudanogueira> SeaD, did you see a documentation in the help.ubuntu.com? there you can find a lot of ways of installing ubuntu (netinstall, from hd, usbdisk...)
[04:46] <sarixe> how do i edit my user's screen resolution config from a command line?
[04:46] <penguin42> sarixe: Repeating the question this frequently really doesn't help
[04:46] <sarixe> sorry
[04:46] <overridex-laptop> tomboy doesn't show any systray icon for me, what's wrong?
[04:46] <zmm> jrib: for VGA it says "0000:01:05.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc: Unknown device 5a61"
[04:46] <sarixe> is there any way?
[04:47] <SeaD> dudanogueira, yes i did... the netboot also but this asks for internet connection and i dont't have it on that network
[04:47] <jrib> zmm: well there you, go.  You have an ati :)
[04:47] <dudanogueira> sarixe, probably editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restarting the x server...
[04:47] <sarixe> right
[04:47] <sarixe> i'll try that, brb
[04:47] <SeaD> penguin42, how to tell the setup to use the mounted HDD and not the CD-device?
[04:47] <penguin42> sarixe: Thing is if it is working for other users then it has to be something in your directory
[04:47] <zmm> jrib: yeah! but not nvidia:)
[04:47] <Kengur> man..
[04:47] <Arron> what kernel is the default for the stable ubuntu?
[04:48] <lupine_85> 2.6.17-10-generic
[04:48] <penguin42> Arron: 2.6.17-10
[04:48] <Arron> thanks
[04:48] <zmm> jrib: what should I do to enable higher resolution....whatever it may be
[04:48] <jrib> zmm: if you install the binary drivers from ati, your performance will probably be better.  If it's the case you don't have resolutions listed in system > prefs > screen resolution, you can try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' and choose more resolutions
[04:49] <sarixe> what would be in my user directory, penguin42?
[04:49] <Arron> penguin42: does that have -rc2 in it?
[04:49] <penguin42> Arron: No
[04:49] <penguin42> Arron: Or at least that is the Ubuntu package name for it
[04:49] <jrib> zmm: note that that last command wipes out your current config and overwrites it with the options you choose.  if you choose the wrong options, you may not have X.  It's not difficult, just letting you know.
[04:50] <penguin42> Arron: I think this is based off the 2.6.17 release - i.e. after rc2
[04:50] <Arron> penguin42: my wireless works in 2.6.17-rc2 or newer....
[04:50] <Arron> *supose to*
[04:50] <zmm> jrib: i try this ''sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' since I only have 640X480 res. listed in Sys->Pref->Scr Res
[04:50] <penguin42> Arron: Oh I think you've got a fair chance then
[04:50] <Arron> thanks
[04:51] <penguin42> Arron: Which is your wireless?
[04:51] <_raf> hi ,  when i use 'MC', the MC shell give me the 'MC cd command' in it history ! I dont want this, How to do ?
[04:51] <Justy-> !cpufreq
[04:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about cpufreq - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:51] <sidewalk`> how can i let normal users use the mount command?
[04:51] <Arron> its a compaq r4000, with a Broadcom Air Force One Rev. 02 Wireless Card integrated
[04:52] <sidewalk`> is it enough if i chmod /bin/mount ?
[04:52] <penguin42> Arron: OK, the changelog says 'Update to 2.6.17 final' - so yes it is newer than the rc
[04:52] <lupine_85> sidewalk`: add them to group 46
[04:52] <Arron> penguin:thanks :-)
[04:52] <lupine_85> IIRC
[04:52] <lupine_85> add add 'user' to the options in /etc/fstab
[04:53] <sidewalk`> lupine_85: which options?
[04:53] <lupine_85> the list of options for each mountpoint. usually starts with 'defaults' - man fstab for more details
[04:53] <mitch_> I can't for the life of me find a decent looking gtk theme.
[04:53] <sidewalk`> lupine_85: im trying to mount using captive-ntfs
[04:54] <sidewalk`> lupine_85: and i want the user to be able to read/write to the mounted partition
[04:54] <sidewalk`> chmoding and chgrping the mounted partition is not an option
[04:54] <ianmacgregor> mitch_: Have you tried: http://www.gnome-look.org ?
[04:54] <zmm> jrib: it has shown a window with the title  "Configuring xserver-xorg" and asking  "Attempt to autodetect video hardware?"  should i "yes" it or not
[04:54] <jrib> zmm: yes
[04:55] <eegore> What do I need to do to set up VNC on a system
[04:55] <_raf> Is someone can answer to my question about MC on ubuntu ?
[04:55] <jrib> !vnc | eegore
[04:55] <ubotu> eegore: vnc is a way of doing remote desktop.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !freenx.
[04:55] <sidewalk`> h the title  "Configuring
[04:55] <mitch_> ianmacgregor: Yes, and most of what I download is ugly. No engines are working properly for me, no matter what I do. >_<;
[04:55] <sidewalk`> anyone have any tips? :P
[04:55] <jrib> eegore: note taht ubuntu already has system > preferences > remote desktop  for you
[04:55] <sidewalk`> regarding mounting as a normal user?
[04:55] <SeaD> Is it possible to install Ubuntu by using a network CD device on another machine?
[04:55] <ianmacgregor> mitch_: Ahh, ok, if the engines aren't working properly, then the themes won't look good.
[04:56] <mitch_> ianmacgregor: =( I have no idea why they are borking up.
[04:56] <jsilva> hi, is there a program like Float Mobile Agent for linux?
[04:56] <ianmacgregor> mitch_: Edgy?
[04:56] <Tonren> Hey guys, where the hell are you supposed to find Tomboy plugins?  Also, where is there a documentation for the API?

[04:56] <weardlan> euuww is mono in ubuntu?
[04:57] <mitch_> ianmacgregor, Yes sir.
[04:57] <ianmacgregor> mitch_: Ok, I don't know enough about Edgy yet :(
[04:57] <mitch_> ianmacgregor: Alright, well I'm installing kubuntu-desktop to give it a shot...
[04:57] <jpjacobs> loca|host: you can mount it

[04:58] <anilomkar> After loading all the modules when the OS will come into the graphical environment then my system will hangup i have to restart the system and in the grub menu i have to select recovery mode. Every time i have to do like this can u please help me???
[04:58] <SB|nblracer> just wonder why in the pack. manager it shows an old version of apache2
[04:58] <ianmacgregor> mitch_: If you have a fast machine, you might look into Baghira for KDE. It's downright beautiful.
[04:58] <mitch_> ianmacgregor, Will do. One last thing, Kubuntu is just Ubuntu with KDE right?
[04:59] <eegore> ubotu: tightvncserver is not available
[04:59] <wimpies> I have two problems : my external USB disk when rebooting is mounted on /media/external-1 where it is defined in fstab to mount on /media/external
[04:59] <ianmacgregor> mitch_: I believe so.. it uses the KDE desktop, but it's still the Ubuntu you know and love :)
[04:59] <zmm> jrib: it didn't autodetect the video card memory and asking " Attempt to autodetect video hardware?  " should i leave it empty or give some value
[04:59] <apokryphos> mitch_: yes, all in the FAQ
[04:59] <apokryphos> !faq

[05:00] <jdroid-> how do i get gpg support in evolution in ubuntu?
[05:00] <netG> hi
[05:00] <jrib> zmm: leave empty I think, not sure.  You should know it will leave your rpevious config in /etc/X11 with a timestamp, so you cna just copy that over if soemthing goes wrong.  Ask me how to do this before you restart X, if you aren't sure
[05:00] <apokryphos> !gpg | jdroid-
[05:00] <netG> I've istalled xubuntu-desktop
[05:00] <ubotu> jdroid-: gpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto
[05:00] <ianmacgregor> jdroid-: I installed seahorse and that helped with gpg support in Evo
[05:01] <netG> and something changed in settings...
[05:01] <netG> How can I revert to ubuntu-desktop settings???
[05:01] <jdroid-> ianmacgregor: what's seahorse/
[05:02] <netG> seahorse = mozilla suite
[05:02] <eegore> is there a repository I need to get tight vnc server from?
[05:02] <iratsu> does anyone here have any experience with bluetooth?
[05:02] <jdroid-> isn't the mozilla suite seamonkey?
[05:02] <ianmacgregor> jdroid-: seahorse - A Gnome front end for GnuPG
[05:02] <ianmacgregor> netG: no
[05:02] <jdroid-> oh ok
[05:02] <netG> iratsu : whats the problem?
[05:03] <jdroid-> in ubuntu edgy, there isn't a security tab like the web sites say which is what led me here
[05:03] <iratsu> netG: so hcitool scan can find my device but not hidd --search
[05:03] <zmm> jrib:  "use kernel framebuffer device interface?" default is selected as NO...should i NO it
[05:03] <iratsu> netG: also, gnome-obex-send can't find my device
[05:03] <ianmacgregor> !nickspam > rocky|away
[05:03] <iratsu> netG: but i can use gnome-obex-send to send a file to it if i specify the --dest
[05:04] <sarixe> nothing seems to work for reconfiguring the resolution
[05:04] <netG> why don't you use gnome frontend?
[05:04] <sarixe> i can't find any config files besides /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:04] <jrib> zmm: no is ok
[05:04] <sarixe> and that only configures which screen resolutions are possible.
[05:05] <jdroid-> ianmacgregor: good call about seahorse. now i have the security tab. :)
[05:05] <netG> iratsu: apt-get install gnome-bluetooth
[05:05] <sarixe> and i couldn't find anything useful in the ~/.* folders.
[05:06] <jdroid-> ianmacgregor: i think the trick was probably taht seahorse installed gpgme
[05:06] <sarixe> any help with reconfiguring the resolution for only my user?
[05:06] <Linuxpoa> ubuntu-server run in k6 processors ? Thanks !
[05:06] <sarixe> other users work fine.
[05:06] <sarixe> i changed the resolution from the K Control Panel.
[05:06] <eegore> I forgot the staocl sourceslist does not have a lot in it
[05:07] <sCsI> sarixe - randr ?
[05:07] <iratsu_> netG: isn't gnome-obex-send the gnome frontend?
[05:07] <sarixe> what is randr, sCsI?
[05:07] <rsteele> ?
[05:07] <sCsI> resize & rotate
[05:08] <sarixe> should i run it, then?
[05:08] <cablesm10> I recently filed a bug in Edgy RC, but it seems to be fixed. What should I do to the bug report?
[05:08] <sCsI> its an option in start menu
[05:08] <sCsI> not sure, been a while since i've used kde
[05:08] <ianmacgregor> jdroid-: Yeah, you could be right about gpgme, seahorse does install it, but I like seahorse for it's nice front-end.
[05:08] <sarixe> well i don't have access to anything that looks remotely like a start menu.
[05:08] <mc44> cablesm10: set it to Fix Released
[05:08] <eugman> How can I unpack a .dat file from jumpnbump?
[05:08] <cablesm10> Thanks
[05:09] <sarixe> i'm in bitchx right now, as my only means of communication.
[05:10] <zmm> jrib: which mouse should i select imps/2 or ExplorerPs/2
[05:11] <Zambezi> Compile: ./configure then make, but after that, is't make install or sudo make install?
[05:11] <jrib> zmm: I usually pick the first one on the list
[05:11] <ProN00b> what_if, a bug beeing fixed ?
[05:11] <ProN00b> wow, how can that happen ?
[05:11] <netpython> Zambezi, sudo make install
[05:11] <Zambezi> netpython, Thanks.
[05:11] <netpython> Zambezi, np
[05:11] <dtek> Hi there, i need help installing Edy
[05:11] <mc44> ProN00b: please stop trolling
[05:12] <ProN00b> mc44, no way
[05:12] <jdroid-> ianmacgregor: thanks for the help. payce!
[05:12] <dtek> I have a 40GB HD with 2 Primary Partitions on it, the second one (hda2) has the Ubuntu Logical Partitions, one for home, one for root and one for boot
[05:12] <samu2> How can I take a screenshot of my gnome desktop?
[05:13] <jrib> Zambezi: checkinstall is best (see the bot's link), but you would probably need sudo to install ouside your home directory.  by the way, when you put "Compile:" like that it seems like you are talking to someone named "Compile".  :)
[05:13] <jrib> !checkinstall | Zambezi
[05:13] <ubotu> Zambezi: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall  -  Please: Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page. - DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!
[05:13] <iratsu_> netG: are you there?
[05:13] <georgeb> dtek: so what's the problem ?
[05:14] <dtek> The problem is that once, i click on next (yes the graphical installer) it says (No root filesystem) when indeed i have hda7 as my logical partition for the root system (/)
[05:14] <dtek> georgeb see my last two posts it has the description
[05:14] <netG> iratsu_ : I'm back....it works for me

[05:14] <iratsu_> netG: hmm can i see waht your /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm looks like?
[05:14] <dtek> i have perviously installed 6.06 with no problems
[05:15] <iratsu_> netG: .conf
[05:15] <MeanGuy> hello.
[05:15] <variant> dtek: do you have format selected
[05:15] <variant> ?
[05:16] <dtek> Only in the non-windows partitions
[05:16] <modoc> this seems to be a popular topic but is there a way to get a sound working with Flash 9 on Edgy (I'm using alsa)?
[05:16] <netG> iratsu_ : rfcomm doesn't matter with obex protocol
[05:16] <MeanGuy> hmmmmmmm... partition issue? :/ ... well i installed edgy yesterday. seems like alot of people are having alot of issues
[05:16] <dtek> its weird because i had the exact same scheme for 6.06 i it worked with no problems
[05:16] <iratsu_> netG: hmm ok
[05:17] <MeanGuy> u guys think i should install drapper? ;l
[05:17] <variant> dtek: dunno sorry, parittion it manually and then restart the isntaller
[05:17] <iratsu_> netG: so does hidd --search show anything for you?
[05:17] <dtek> variant, i did the partitions manually
[05:17] <variant> dtek: i mean, with cfdisk and mkfs
[05:17] <test88> MeanGuy what is obex?
[05:18] <dtek> they were there before the installation i just tell the installer where to put things
[05:18] <MeanGuy> i always get mesa driver, can never get ati x1400 to show when i use fglrxinfo ;l and i love being ignored :D
[05:18] <variant> dtek: ok
[05:18] <bulmer> when installing Ubuntu on a laptop, the display is rather small, how do I tell it to take the full screen?
[05:18] <tombo> Hi, I want to install the bootmanager grub at /sda11/boot/grub to the mbr of sda, whereas /dev/sda11 is mounted by usb-storage. Can you help me or give me a pointer?
[05:18] <georgeb> dtek: what fs is on the root partition ?
[05:18] <arf`> hi
[05:18] <dtek> does that mean that i have to download the alternate CD?
[05:18] <MeanGuy> test88 obex is probably the program used for sending files in bluetooth.
[05:18] <variant> dtek: show a screenshot please, of the layout as shown in the grapical installer and the error message you get
[05:18] <test88> ah
[05:18] <netG> iratsu_ : nothing
[05:18] <arf`> pfiou
[05:18] <mc44> MeanGuy: you have fglrx set up to be used in xorg.conf?
[05:18] <iratsu_> netG: hmm ok
[05:19] <georgeb> dtek: I see some posts saying something about reiser doesn't work; and some solved in by deleting the partition, recreating it
[05:19] <MeanGuy> mc44 yep.
[05:19] <gfx168> are there ubuntu 6 package for grub 1.0
[05:19] <dtek> variant. i'd love to but i dunno how to do it with the live CD
[05:19] <mc44> MeanGuy: this is edgy?
[05:19] <variant> dtek: applications > accessories > screenshot
[05:19] <iratsu_> netG: so when i run gnome-obex-send, i get a blank little window with buttons cancel and refresh

[05:19] <alberto> I need them.
[05:19] <MeanGuy> mc44 nope im in windows. right now, i wanned to format the whole thing, but thought i would ask questions before i do it again :) although everything is working perfectly. except the vga. the wireless is ok :)
[05:20] <mc44> MeanGuy: have you disabled compositing?
[05:20] <lordmetroid> Hello
[05:20] <georgeb> dtek: here's a thread with this problem and few workarounds: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=282898
[05:20] <mc44> MeanGuy: if everything else is working you really dont need to reformat
[05:20] <MeanGuy> mc44 never read that in the manuals in the forums. it did says edit the restricted modules
[05:20] <alberto> Hi, where can I obtain official edgy /etc/apt/sources.list? Please.

[05:37] <zmm> jrib: what do u mean bu leaving the defaults
[05:37] <MeanGuy> mc44,  tell me something. i thought one of linux powerful features is there is no need for constant rebooting , how come u have to reboot alot in ubuntu?
[05:37] <Languid> hi ive been having problems with my ubuntu dapper install and corrupt filesystems.  my root ext3 has become corrupted for seemingly unknown reasons, and ive had to boot into a livecd and fsck it.  does anyone know some common reasons that might have caused the corruption?
[05:38] <mc44> MeanGuy: you dont have to?
[05:38] <jrib> zmm: leave the ones that are selected and press enter
[05:38] <mc_> Languid: bad hd
[05:38] <Languid> mc_, is there any way i can test that?
[05:38] <ricanelite> does anyone here use Apollon?
[05:38] <variant> Languid: bad ram, bad disk, hard reset (unlikley)
[05:38] <scamboy> !apollon
[05:38] <ubotu> apollon: KDE-based interface to the giFT file-sharing system. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.1-5 (edgy), package size 444 kB, installed size 1668 kB
[05:38] <mc_> Languid: i know there is one,but i cant recall how to do it
[05:39] <MeanGuy> mc44,  well, when installing most of the drivers and such. "steps in manuals" seems like no one is compiling kernels. but noticed that they add modules and reboot ;l
[05:39] <Languid> variant, i know i can use memtest+ to test the ram, but is there anything similar for hd's?
[05:39] <roryy> Languid: you can use 'badblocks' (command-line tool)
[05:39] <MeanGuy> i'll show u one for example
[05:39] <football> how can i open mms streams? for example radio stream in mms format
[05:39] <Languid> roryy, ah, excellent.  ill look that up in the man pages.  thanks :)

[05:39] <cong0_natty> run it from a live cd
[05:39] <scamboy> helo dj..play some song..hehe
[05:39] <cong0_natty> dont fsck your /
[05:39] <cong0_natty> or you will be in trouble
[05:39] <mc44> MeanGuy: well you dont need to , you can modprobe drivers and restart X in Ubuntu, and you should have to compile the kernel
[05:40] <MeanGuy> mc44,  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=257684

[05:40] <DJAdmiral> I do not have access to a windoze machine and I need to convert a PST file into MBOX format.

[05:40] <Spee_Der> I'm back, needed another cold one to hold me down.....
[05:40] <MeanGuy> mc44,  exactly , thats what i thought. well, check out step 6-7 then 9-10
[05:40] <lupine_85> what makes pst?
[05:40] <DJAdmiral> scamboy: Yes, I know, I was just clarifying that it was urgent.
[05:40] <zmm> jrib: select the video modes you would like the xserver to use....how to select as in by clicking what button
[05:40] <lordmetroid> what shall I do with an rausb0?
[05:40] <Languid> variant, oh... so that wont help me at all?
[05:41] <lupine_85> lordmetroid: it's a USB ralink device. Just treat it like any other wireless lan device
[05:41] <jrib> zmm: move the cursor to what you want, press space to select, press enter to finish
[05:41] <DJAdmiral> lupine_85: a PST is a file that contains all the mail in ms outlook.
[05:41] <scamboy> dj: wat u mean pst? mbox??
[05:41] <Languid> variant, i googled around and read somewhere that bad DMA can corrupt a filesystem.  is that true?
[05:41] <variant> Languid: badblocks might, if it finds a lot of badblocks that can be an indicator that the disk is failing
[05:41] <jrib> ubotu: tell football about multimedia
[05:41] <Languid> variant, true.
[05:41] <iami89> do u guys know about happypenguin.com
[05:41] <lupine_85> you could import it into thunderbird?
[05:41] <variant> Languid: you can try disableing dma transferes
[05:41] <lupine_85> that's the long way round, I think ;)
[05:41] <lordmetroid> lupine_85:  Yes, I am aware of it being an wlan Adapter but how do I get my network to communicate over it?
[05:41] <iami89> that still not enough for me
[05:41] <variant> Languid: does the corruption happen a lot or just once?
[05:41] <mc44> MeanGuy: well I think about 80% of those reboots could be avoided, but you cant control advice people give :)
[05:41] <Languid> variant, it's happened twice now
[05:41] <zmm> jrib: what resolutions should i select....
[05:42] <lupine_85> lordmetroid: there is a GUI config utility if you want...
[05:42] <Languid> variant, spaced out over about 2 weeks
[05:42] <variant> Languid: the / partition?
[05:42] <lupine_85> it's called rutilt

[05:42] <lupine_85> bah, it's still not in the repos. are you using i386 edgy?
[05:42] <MeanGuy> mc44,  well, yeah, atleast they're trying to help, but weird that no one "pointed out" that u dont need to reboot, anyways no harm done :D
[05:42] <wozcu> i just dld ubuntu to replace my sucky windoz, and asking how to turn off x to install drivers??

[05:42] <Spee_Der> iami89: It's happypenguin.org

[05:42] <mc44> MeanGuy: and I have no clue why they are getting you to compile fglrx when the correct version is in the repos... but anyway
[05:42] <MeanGuy> mc44,  u know anything about tv-out with extended desktop? im only getting cloned ones
[05:42] <iami89> oh, i almost forget, how to install wine?
[05:42] <gigiven> IO

[05:43] <lordmetroid> rutilt he
[05:43] <lupine_85> lordmetroid: yes, that's to be expected
[05:43] <DJAdmiral> iami89: Go to Applications-> Add/Remove -> Find WINE there -> install
[05:43] <jrib> zmm: do you have an lcd?
[05:43] <lupine_85> if you don't want rutilt you could edit /etc/network/interfaces directly

[05:45] <lupine_85> iami89: they're usually included in the kernel and get loaded automagically

[05:53] <cong0_natty> variant, i've set both up nurmous times on many different distros
[05:53] <variant> cong0_natty: ah, so the problem is your poor choice of graphics card..
[05:53] <DJAdmiral> iami89: You can't "download" the full version of quake3.
[05:53] <cong0_natty> variant, no comparison to xp gaming
[05:53] <roycebarber> I wish i could get guildwars, eve online working in linux, and secondlife even though they have a linux client but its buggy

[05:55] <KradarK> all platform?
[05:55] <zm1> jrib: the process has finished and wrote on the terminal screen "xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration  file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20061105214852" what should i do next
[05:55] <scamboy> meanguy: see ultraguy QUEstion....
[05:55] <variant> KradarK: the graphics used in the game are not though, so you have to buy the game if you want to see anything ecxept the code. there are full mods that include free content though
[05:55] <variant> KradarK: yeah, multiplatform
[05:55] <mtymobile> Asc: i made make oldconfig

[05:56] <UltraGuy8> cpx
[05:56] <MeanGuy> i just installed ubuntu on my laptop
[05:56] <cong0_natty> i often wonder how dumb asses who cant set up nix make it all the way into irc
[05:56] <cong0_natty> heh
[05:56] <ryanakca> auke: ask in #ubuntu-xgl
[05:56] <MeanGuy> dell inspiron 6400 ;l
[05:56] <KradarK> in windows
[05:56] <auke> ha, thanks alot ryanakca
[05:56] <cong0_natty> lol
[05:56] <cong0_natty> :))
[05:56] <mc44> cong0_natty: please be nice
[05:56] <jrib> zm1: now you can restart X to test it.  BUT, do you know how to restore the backup if it doesn't work?
[05:56] <variant> cong0_natty: chill out dude
[05:56] <iami89> where to download quake3?
[05:56] <ricanelite> What is your guys thoughts on Edgy so far?
[05:56] <cong0_natty> im chillin?
[05:56] <jatt> After a breezy->edgy upgrade I do have the following on my fstab file:
[05:56] <jatt> # /dev/hda1 -- converted during upgrade to edgy
[05:56] <jatt> UUID=19b1e59e-e0ad-4755-9936-2facf90cda99 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
[05:56] <MeanGuy> cong0_natty,  lol, u're really mean :P
[05:56] <cong0_natty> im orry
[05:56] <jatt> what is all this UUID.... stuff?
[05:56] <cong0_natty> i know i am mean im tryin to be nice :D
[05:57] <cong0_natty> sorry :(
[05:57] <UltraGuy8> can anyone tell me what the error means?
[05:57] <cong0_natty> yahoo did it to me :(
[05:57] <zm1> jrib: no.... and not even how to restart X
[05:57] <MeanGuy> lol
[05:57] <whaley> when I run the ps command, how should the columns VSZ and RSS be interpreted?  As I understand it, RSS is the current amount of physical memory that a process is taking up and RSS is the total amount of memory a process is taking up (swap + physical).  Is this correct?
[05:57] <mc__|umbauen> UltraGuy8: did not get your error
[05:57] <Asc> mtymobile: In that case, nope, I've got no idea.   :D
[05:57] <MeanGuy> UltraGuy8,  seems like either ur copy, or ur drive is fucked up
[05:58] <scamboy> !language
[05:58] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:58] <UltraGuy8> It has to be my drive
[05:58] <Rockj> jatt: "new" way of identifying your harddrives. so if change on-board slot on where you connect your harddrive, you dont need to remmap it to correct /dev/hdb1
[05:58] <UltraGuy8> sorry
[05:58] <cong0_natty> hey any of you guys or girls had a problem with the shut down menu borking in 6.06 when you do updates?
[05:58] <DJAdmiral> mc__|umbauen: Mind your language.
[05:58] <Asc> mtymobile: Unknown, I have no expereince with that.
[05:58] <cong0_natty> its happend to me like 4 or 5 times now
[05:58] <UltraGuy8> I apologize
[05:58] <MeanGuy> UltraGuy8,  no need to be sorry :)
[05:58] <UltraGuy8> it has to be my drive
[05:58] <MeanGuy> cong0_natty,  not me ;l
[05:58] <UltraGuy8> I tried like 5 copies of Mandriva before this
[05:58] <mc__|umbauen> DJAdmiral: you take the ubotu too serious..
[05:58] <jrib> zm1: ok to restore the backup you would execute this command: 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20061105214852 /etc/X11/xorg.conf' .  You can press ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a tty (terminal), login and executet hat if you need to.  To return to X you would do ctrl-alt-f7.  Now, to restart X, you can log out of gnome and press ctrl-alt-backspace
[05:58] <MeanGuy> UltraGuy8,  same problem?
[05:58] <mc__|umbauen> UltraGuy8: than it is your cd-drive
[05:58] <UltraGuy8> I assume so
[05:58] <Rockj> jatt: think it generates a ID out of the harddrives serialnumber and some info, so it should be unique for your harddrive. so you can use ideport1 or 2 or same..it will still regonize it back.
[05:59] <MeanGuy> yep :)
[05:59] <cong0_natty> weird.
[05:59] <UltraGuy8> I am a total noob
[05:59] <DJAdmiral> mc__|umbauen: "Profanity is the strongest expression of a weak mind"
[05:59] <UltraGuy8> but I have burned like 10 cds
[05:59] <KradarK> en repositury is up??????
[05:59] <ryanakca>  is it possible to make your current gpg key bigger? like converting a 2048 to a 4096 one?
[05:59] <UltraGuy8> I have a USB drive, would it be possible to install it from there and get around this problem?
[05:59] <KradarK> italian repository is down..
[05:59] <MeanGuy> UltraGuy8,  sometimes changing the cd brand helps :)
[05:59] <jatt> rikai, Rockj I see thanks for the explanation. Fortunately in my case those partition still get mounted.
[05:59] <mc__|umbauen> DJAdmiral: i love you too
[05:59] <wrichards> hey
[05:59] <scamboy> meanguy: i had that problem... it stop at the blinking cursor during live cd on my dual core..
[05:59] <MeanGuy> some of those empty cds are really crappy
[05:59] <sampo_v2> ryanakca: no
[05:59] <mc44> UltraGuy8: yes see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[05:59] <DJAdmiral> mc__|umbauen: From one statement, you assume so much. I'm just trying to make this chat channel a little family friendly. I like Ubuntu.
[06:00] <cong0_natty> DJAdmiral, profanity is a way of life either your ultra obscene or you are on the other side of the fence trying to fight it.
[06:00] <scamboy> !offtopic
[06:00] <jrib> ryanakca: I doubt it, your key is based on two prime numbers, you'll need to generate larger primes
[06:00] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter.  I've tried like 5 tutorials on the forums, and I nothing works. Also enabling 'pnpbios=off acpi=off' in /boot/grub/menu.lst makes it hang while booting, any thoughts?
[06:00] <ompaul> DJAdmiral, you have made the point
[06:00] <KradarK> !offtopic
[06:00] <MeanGuy> cong0_natty,  tyt
[06:00] <iami89> i've just found it on http://www.happypenguin.org/show?Alien%20Arena%202006
[06:00] <hikenboot> hello all--anyone know where to get prodvd for xroast thru apt sources
[06:00] <scamboy> meanguy: breezy hehehe...my dapper cd on the way..
[06:00] <cong0_natty> you too MeanGuy nice meetin yaz
[06:00] <ompaul> mc__|umbauen, please don't swear in this channel, people get kicked for less thanks
[06:00] <jenda> Does anyone have frostwire running? It gives me a syntax error in runFrost.sh
[06:01] <MeanGuy> scamboy,  ahh... breezy is what? 5.10?
[06:01] <jrib> jenda: you have to tell it to use bash instead of sh (which now points to dash)
[06:01] <MeanGuy> cuz im new to ubuntu
[06:01] <mc__|umbauen> jenda: open /usr/bin/frostiwre and replace sh with bash
[06:01] <scamboy> !alsa|linuxvampire
[06:01] <ubotu> linuxvampire: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems  and http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin
[06:01] <jenda> aha
[06:01] <scamboy> meanguy:yup
[06:01] <linuxvampire> all that's installed. I'm not a nub.
[06:01] <DJAdmiral> ompaul: I know.
[06:02] <lupine_85> funny, I changed it so sh pointed to bash :p
[06:02] <scamboy> linuxvampire: oppsss////..
[06:02] <MeanGuy> scamboy,  well, i had problems with 5.10 , was never able to boot into X with my laptop
[06:02] <linuxvampire> Also, if you'll notice I said I tried 5 tutorials on ubuntuforums. it was classified 'as a bug' which hasn't been fixed....
[06:02] <MeanGuy> scamboy,  so i downloaded edgy, works perfectly fine
[06:02] <DJAdmiral> ompaul, mc__|umbauen: I'm not pursuing this thing any further. I have a headache as it is.
[06:02] <ryanakca> jrib: kk
[06:02] <scamboy> meanguy: live cd??
[06:02] <Rockj> jatt: arn't those partitions supposed to be mounted? o_O   (dunno your problem, just explained UUID thingie)
[06:02] <zm1> jrib: so right now I just need to press ctrl+alt+backspace to see the effects made by the changings....
[06:02] <shintonduchi> good day guys, may i ask a question please.. do you know any browser support SRV lookup?
[06:02] <omkar86> "The appropriate desktop package for you're version of Ubuntu must also be installed" BEFORE UPGRADE ..WHY???
[06:02] <Elly> hey guys, is it possible to do a server install from the regular livecd?
[06:02] <ryanakca> jrib: any advantages to generating a new key every year or so?
[06:02] <linuxvampire> scamboy: you're not making any sense. :|
[06:02] <rikai> jatt, it didn't start yelling at me till i had edited the /etc/fstab for another reason, and rebooted. :P
[06:03] <iami89> who there can answer me where to get Quake 3?
[06:03] <linuxvampire> this isn't "user error" this is an ubuntu bug.
[06:03] <scamboy> linuxvampire: sense cannot be made..hehehe can't help u...
[06:03] <DJAdmiral> Alright - here's the thing, how do I convert an Outlook 2003 PST file to MBOX if I don't have access to a Windows machine?
[06:03] <DJAdmiral> iami89: You cannot get the full version of Quake 3 for free.
[06:03] <jrib> ryanakca: yes if the nsa can only crack your cd after one year and you fear that they may be devoting most of their resources to breaking your key :)
[06:03] <ompaul> DJAdmiral, I believe that thunderbird can do that
[06:03] <iami89> have you got a full?
[06:03] <MeanGuy> scamboy,  yeah. see? i read before downloading the cd. why not download the newest release instead of downloading old release and upgrading it.
[06:03] <DJAdmiral> iami89: You can download the Linux executables to play it, however you need the Quake 3 CD.
[06:03] <jrib> ryanakca: s/cd/key
[06:04] <milionar> iani89 shop?
[06:04] <linuxvampire> I guess no one knows anything about thinkpad 600's and ubuntu then.
[06:04] <ompaul> DJAdmiral, possibly evolution also
[06:04] <jrib> zm1: yes
[06:04] <DJAdmiral> iami89: Go shop for it. This is not a place to discuss illegal things.
[06:04] <ryanakca> jrib: decides to be paranoid and decides to generate a new key
[06:04] <Elly> anyone? can you do a server install from the livecd?
[06:04] <Rockj> DJAdmiral: if your mail is imap, you could use fetchmail to transfer your emails.
[06:04] <DJAdmiral> ompaul: Evolution cannot convert PST to MBOX.
[06:04] <mc44> omkar86: so the correct files get installed on upgrade
[06:04] <DJAdmiral> Rockj: No IMAP.
[06:04] <MeanGuy> scamboy,  my point. i had problems with 5.10 on my laptop, so i didn't bother myself with it.
[06:04] <scamboy> meanguy: i dont hav fast internet...the internet in my country s**** u see,,
[06:04] <salim> isnt vmware (workstation?) free?
[06:05] <mc__|umbauen> DJAdmiral: no information is not legal
[06:05] <weardlan> DJA as it's Ol2003 likely your best bet is to get it to w windows box and up to an imap server
[06:05] <ryanakca> jrib: there might be a few embarrassing things on my computer that I don't know of... don't want the goverment to get at them :D
[06:05] <ryanakca> lol
[06:05] <DJAdmiral> salim: Workstation is free, but you have to download it from the vmware site
[06:05] <omkar86> SO IF I WANT 6.10kde I MUST HAVE 6.06KDE VERSION?
[06:05] <weardlan> i don't think there's a native linux tool ATM
[06:05] <jrib> ryanakca: hehe
[06:05] <iami89> sorry
[06:05] <scamboy> meanguy: anyway i will wait for dapper coz i not confidenton edgy..
[06:05] <jrib> !caps | omkar86
[06:05] <Rockj> DJAdmiral: if you got access to GUI, you could try Thunderbird. I think it supports import of Ms Outlook mail.. or maybe thats only in windows :/
[06:05] <ubotu> omkar86: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[06:05] <DJAdmiral> mc__|umbauen: There are some things some people should not know.
[06:05] <iami89> i'll save my money
[06:05] <MeanGuy> scamboy,  :) u'll manage, been there too :) i heard drapper or 6.06 works fine too.
[06:05] <iami89> sad
[06:05] <mc44> omkar86: what version are you currently running?
[06:05] <MeanGuy> scamboy,  good luck, dont worry, alot of my friends say that its working fine :D
[06:05] <salim> but I have to register to download, isnt it?
[06:05] <DJAdmiral> Rockj: I'd do that, but as I said, I have no access to a windows machine.
[06:05] <omkar86> 6.06
[06:05] <mc__|umbauen> DJAdmiral:that is your opinion.
[06:06] <mc44> omkar86: kubuntu or ubuntu?
[06:06] <omkar86> ubuntu
[06:06] <MeanGuy> any of u guys using remote access program ?
[06:06] <mc44> omkar86: and you want to upgrade to Kubuntu?
[06:06] <omkar86> i want kubuntu 6.10
[06:06] <omkar86> yes
[06:06] <jatt> Rockj: I was reading the fstab man page and I don't understand how you can recover the UUIDs in case they get lost. Now ubuntu includes a commentary, where one can tell /dev/hda1 was converter to UUID=...
[06:06] <scamboy> meanguy: thanks/....
[06:06] <DJAdmiral> mc__|umbauen: And we are all entitled to it. But this channel does not permit the discussion of where to find illegal software.
[06:06] <weardlan> and CLI over ssh
[06:06] <jatt> s/converter/converted
[06:06] <iami89> have you try Alien Arena 2006 yet?
[06:06] <mc44> omkar86: well upgrade ubuntu to 6.10, then install kubuntu-desktop
[06:06] <omkar86> ok thnx
[06:06] <omkar86> got it
[06:06] <snoogans> greetings

[06:08] <mc__|umbauen> Elly: what was your question?
[06:08] <MeanGuy> no idea ;l
[06:08] <DJAdmiral> How does one convert an Outlook 2003 PST to MBOX when one does not have access to a windows machine?
[06:08] <snoogans> have to say very impressed with ubuntu - printer was a gift from father-in-law not my choice of driver
[06:08] <Elly> mc__|umbauen: can you do a server install from a regular livecd?
[06:08] <Ramunas> hello, anybody has pcsx running?
[06:08] <mc__|umbauen> Elly: nope,you need the alternate cd

[06:09] <UltraGuy8> I unzipped syslinux onto my portable drive
[06:10] <Spee_Der> cool.
[06:10] <scamboy> spee_der: #myoss
[06:10] <hornet123> i try to add the gpg key of Ubuntu PLF, but the command never finishes: wget http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/12B83718.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[06:10] <Spee_Der> Thanks, will check it out.
[06:10] <UltraGuy8> now how do I make it bootable?
[06:10] <UltraGuy8> it is mounted to G:
[06:11] <variant> hornet123: plf doesnt exist any more
[06:11] <ryanakca> jrib: what do I do about my encrypted / signed files?
[06:11] <mc44> hornet123: you should be able to get packages without the gpg key, you will just get a warning that they are not authenticated
[06:11] <fishsticks> im an amarok user on gnome, so how do i stop rhythmbox from opening when i plug in my ipod?
[06:11] <poningru> UltraGuy8: did you see the guide?
[06:11] <jatt> fishsticks: uninstall rhythmbox?
[06:11] <snoogans> fishsticks: there is an option
[06:11] <jatt> he
[06:11] <poningru> UltraGuy8: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[06:12] <sethk> fishsticks, there is a configuration in gnome for setting file types and handler applications
[06:12] <jrib> ryanakca: I don't know.  It may just be a hassle to decrypt and encrypt again and sign again everything.  Try #gpg or #gnupg (can't remember)
[06:12] <fishsticks> if i uninstall rhythmbox, it breaks ubuntu-desktop
[06:12] <fishsticks> sethk, is it in gconf
[06:12] <hikenboot> anyone know how to install the prodvd package?
[06:12] <hikenboot> it aint a package it appears
[06:12] <snoogans> removable devices in system preferences
[06:12] <poningru> fishsticks: go into rhythmbox
[06:12] <sethk> fishsticks, I'm not sure where it is, I used KDE, but you can find it on the menus
[06:13] <fishsticks> i found it
[06:13] <UltraGuy8> I get this error:
[06:13] <snoogans> fishsticks: try the removable devices in system preferences then choose the multimedia tab
[06:13] <poningru> cool
[06:13] <fishsticks> thanks snoogans
[06:13] <fishsticks> and everyone else =)
[06:13] <UltraGuy8> 'SYSLINUX' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

[06:13] <snoogans> I tried to remove it and it wouldn't let me
[06:13] <sethk> UltraGuy8, first of all, syslinux, not SYSLINUX.  second of all, it's a package, not a program named syslinux
[06:13] <snoogans> "other apps depend on it"
[06:14] <kmag> Anyone else have the Edgy install CD freeze on the boot screen?
[06:14] <fishsticks> im with snoogans, gnomefreak
[06:14] <snoogans> fishsticks: np glad to help (and I'm a noob too)
[06:14] <jatt> uninstall ubuntu-desktop isn't recommended, but I haven't had any problems uninstalling it when I want to get rid of software I don't need (e.g. evolution).

[06:15] <jenda> jrib: thx - but now FW starts, and the window is just blank.
[06:15] <UltraGuy8> okay I'm sorry, like I said I am highly ignorant, but all I did was type in what was laid out in the guide that was given to me
[06:15] <kmag> yea... the video card is almost  a decade older than the other components
[06:15] <ryanakca> jrib: kk, #gnupg is dormant... :D
[06:15] <jrib> jenda: weird someone had that same problem earlier... I don't know what does that.  Do you have fancy transparency affects going on?
[06:15] <Rockj> DJAdmiral: maybe this might help you? I assume it work as well on linux as on a mac since its suggest use of Mozilla.  http://www.riches.com.au/articles/export-outlook-entourage.htm
[06:15] <sethk> UltraGuy8, guide must have been written by a windows user. :)
[06:16] <MarsRouter> hi all
[06:16] <jrib> effects even
[06:16] <Arepie> !p2p
[06:16] <ubotu> Conventional P2P clients: Limewire/GTK-Gnutella/Frostwire (Gnutella Network).  -  BitTorrent: see !torrent  -  Direct connect: try valknut.  -  Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information.
[06:16] <snoogans> anyone know about canon printer drivers?
[06:16] <jenda> jrib: shhhh! don't tell anyone... yes I do. I guess that's the answer...
[06:16] <UltraGuy8> so how do I use the syslinux package to make the drive bootable?
[06:16] <shintonduchi> MarsRouter: why Anvil kick you on fedora channel ?
[06:16] <thcrw8383> anyone know of a good flash video player for Ubuntu (6,10)
[06:16] <MarsRouter> i asked a lin etwice
[06:17] <snoogans> UltraGuy8: do you have a cd burner?
[06:17] <MarsRouter> after waitng 15 mins
[06:17] <jrib> jenda: try using a theme like clearlooks.  Does that do anything?
[06:17] <shintonduchi> Mars: so what's seem to be the problem?
[06:17] <jenda> jrib: hmm, I'll try.
[06:17] <MarsRouter> but u know such attitude lost a fedora user
[06:17] <sethk> UltraGuy8, you don't, that's not what it's for
[06:17] <MarsRouter> man im stuced in FC5
[06:17] <webben> thcrw8383, how about Flash player itself?
[06:17] <sethk> UltraGuy8, syslinux is used to make bootable floppies.  isolinux is used to make bootable CDs
[06:18] <shintonduchi> MarsRouter: could you be more specific what's seems to be your problem. i might help you
[06:18] <sethk> UltraGuy8, some very old docs use syslinux with CDs, but they were written before the syslinux developer added isolinux
[06:18] <sethk> UltraGuy8, what are you trying to do?
[06:18] <gnomefreak> MarsRouter: and shintonduchi please take that topic to #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:18] <webben> thcrw8383, http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer9.html
[06:18] <MarsRouter> shintonduchi::> Add/remove softwaer stuck & break
[06:18] <Arepie> what is the best "p2p" program herE?
[06:18] <TinnedTuna> Arepie: BitTorrent
[06:18] <TinnedTuna> Do not download illegal crap
[06:18] <shintonduchi> Mars: Add/Remove on GUI stop working ?
[06:18] <snoogans> is micro torrent (utorrent) available?
[06:18] <MarsRouter> yeh
[06:19] <TinnedTuna> snoogans: only through Wine
[06:19] <thcrw8383> I mean to play FLV files
[06:19] <shintonduchi> Mars: if that break your fedora experience maybe you can rpm -e package_name on the console?
[06:19] <neosa-chris> install ktorrent
[06:19] <neosa-chris> it works fine
Wine
[06:19] <snoogans> ?
[06:19] <MarsRouter> shintonduchi::> i just reinstalled system twice bcz it was only 1st day of FC5 on my mcahine
[06:19] <jatt> hmmm I had the flashplugin-nonfree installed and after the breezy->edgy upgrade, the sound of youtube videos 'jumps' all the time...
[06:19] <sethk> MarsRouter, are you going to install it four times on the second day?
[06:20] <MarsRouter> sethk::> nopes
[06:20] <TehUni> i used mdadm to create a raid1 array and it worked perfectly. then i rebooted and the set is gone! i've tried remounting it but it said md0 doesn't exist. how can i make it persist through reboots? (not my boot drive, btw)
[06:20] <shintonduchi> sorry
[06:20] <neosa-chris> jatt: i have no idea what you can do
[06:20] <gnomefreak> MarsRouter: we do not support fedora in here
[06:20] <sethk> MarsRouter, ok, just checking. :)
[06:20] <MarsRouter> i'll go back to ubuntu
[06:20] <snoogans> sethk: and on the first day there was 2 installs
[06:20] <jatt> I've heard there are issues for this plugin on amd64 even when running inside a 32bit chroot
[06:20] <sethk> MarsRouter, there is a #fedora channel, but it is populated by mutants, unfortunately.
[06:20] <sethk> MarsRouter, fedora itself is mostly ok, but #fedora is a serious problem.
[06:20] <jbroome> that's what yum does to you
[06:21] <snoogans> thanks for your time guys and girls, over and out
[06:22] <ianmacgregor> Ok, I just bought a Nokia E62 mobile phone. Is there any chance that I can get it connected to my Ubuntu desktop? Never had a mobile phone before.

[06:23] <Syirrus> What is a good quality sound card I could purchase for Ubuntu?
[06:23] <weardlan> otherwise no dice
[06:23] <gnomefreak> zovirl: i think they need to match versions
[06:24] <ianmacgregor> weardlan: Really? Well, it's not that important.. if I can't do it in Ubuntu without buying something extra, I"ll just do without.
[06:24] <zovirl> gnomefreak: that's what it seems like.  That's unfortunate, I'd really like to have both versions installed side-by-side

[06:26] <predius_> Curtman: your hostname or your dns?
[06:26] <if_i_can_DreAm> selam a.q naber
[06:26] <Curtman> predius_: Just my hostname would be a good start..  It changes it to s8907987398327493874 or whatever shaw gives me.
[06:27] <kmag> BDeejay: serial mouse, not PS/2?  I thought my Millenium II was old!
[06:27] <riddlebox> is there a kernel package for 2.6.18?
[06:28] <predius_> Curtman: modify /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-script

[06:29] <BDeeJay> kmag, my serial mouse is a logitech, I have it since something as 1998 :D
[06:30] <Curtman> iter: Should /etc/hostname be a fully qualified name, or just the host?
[06:30] <BDeeJay> m-m35 :)
[06:30] <iter> ah fudge that didn't work
[06:30] <iter> hostname will overwrite
[06:30] <predius_> Curtman: try what I told you to do.
[06:30] <iter> /etc/hostname should just be the host
[06:30] <Curtman> predius_: Okay.
[06:30] <iter> no FQDN
[06:30] <Curtman> iter: Okay.
[06:30] <predius_> set hostname should be line 118 of /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-script
[06:30] <paitart> i just finished installing ubuntu 5.10, got the modem running and updated firefox.  what should a newbie like me do next?
[06:30] <predius_> paitart: use it?
[06:30] <zethar> can i get some 1-on-1 help from someone for my ubuntu
[06:31] <predius_> paitart: did you mean 5.10 or 6.10?
[06:31] <predius_> zethar: ask away, that's what the channel is for.
[06:31] <zethar> alright
[06:31] <zethar> well i just got ubuntu about a month ago and im kinda new with linux
[06:31] <zethar> im having trouble making a partition
[06:31] <Curtman> predius_: I don't have a /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-script.
[06:31] <zethar> im currently dual booting windows and ubuntu

[06:32] <zethar> i have 10 gigs dedicated to each OS  on an 80 gig hdd
[06:32] <zethar> and i cant seem to mount the rest of that memory
[06:33] <Curtman> predius_: Just /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf and dhclient{enter,exit}-hooks.d/.  I don't know what version.
[06:33] <predius_> This constant in and out is very annoying, damnit.
[06:33] <predius_> Curtman: of ubuntu
[06:33] <zethar> so does anyone know what i should do?
[06:33] <Curtman> predius_: 6.10
[06:33] <BryanJK[doingso> Hey I have a quick question
[06:34] <BryanJK> Im trying to run ubuntu on a pc with a PCI Linksys Wireless card
[06:34] <BryanJK> but there are no drivers in ubuntu for it
[06:34] <predius_> Curtman: try running "dhclient -i $devicename" once on the client machine once.
[06:34] <iter> Curtman: can you do system - administration - networking in gnome
[06:34] <Curtman> iter: The box in question isn't running Gnome.
[06:34] <predius_> BryanJK: can you run lspci and give me the line for the card?
[06:34] <BryanJK> Just a second
[06:35] <riddlebox> can I downgrade my kernel to like 2.6.15?
[06:35] <BryanJK> It may take a minute... since the machine isnt on, brb
[06:35] <predius_> Curtman: try running dhclient, it should create it for you.
[06:35] <greenman> I'm getting this error on a directory that is chmodded to 777, any clues?
[06:35] <greenman> Cannot write to directory /var/www/myserver/htdocs/serendipity/templates_c. Please check the permissions.
[06:35] <predius_> riddlebox: it should be installed, if you upgraded.
[06:35] <Curtman> predius_: my dhclient has no '-i' arg..  It says "Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.0.4"
[06:35] <predius_> greenman: ownership?
[06:36] <greenman> predius_: it's owned by www-data
[06:36] <riddlebox> predius, I installed edgy, but the kernel and nvidia drivers lock my system up, I need an older kernel
[06:36] <ianmacgregor> predius_: Would ownership really matter if the dir is drwxrwxrwx ?
[06:36] <predius_> Curtman: sorry, without the -i
[06:36] <predius_> ianmacgregor: I've had apache doing that sometimes.
[06:36] <greenman> ianmacgregor: that's what i was thinking
[06:36] <ianmacgregor> predius_: Oh, apache, ok
[06:36] <cocos> hi im trying to install xorg on the ubuntu-server but i get the following error when i try to run xorg 'no valid FontPath could be found'
[06:36] <ianmacgregor> greenman: Aparently it does matter
[06:36] <if_i_can_DreAm> lan amlar
[06:37] <iter> cocos: apt-get install xfonts-75dpi
[06:37] <greenman> okay, :) but i still have the owner right
[06:37] <greenman> i went and checked and apache processes are started by www-data
[06:38] <paitart> predius_,  i installed 5.10. its the CD a friend gave me.
[06:38] <ianmacgregor> greenman: Yeah, that will be the owner of most stuff in the site
[06:38] <greenman> so if www-data owns the directory and it's 777 I don't see what the problem is...
[06:38] <qwe123> if i listen to something on youtube, i cant listen a music... if i listen a music, i cant listen youtube. what should i do?
[06:38] <bonzai10> qwel123 i have similar problem
[06:38] <qwe123> and i can listen 2 musics playing on different players at the same time
[06:38] <predius_> qwe123: using dapper or edgy?
[06:38] <qwe123> dapper
[06:39] <bonzai10> then i use konqueror and everything is OK
[06:39] <predius_> hm.
[06:39] <Curtman> predius_: Well I pulled a new lease with dhclient and it didn't create that file..
[06:39] <predius_> Curtman: strange.
[06:40] <predius_> Curtman: $ locate dhclient-script?
[06:40] <greenman> i found it.  It's a directory left over from gentoo.  it's not there so it can't find it .  it can't find it, it can't write to it.
[06:40] <rizla> hi
[06:40] <Curtman> predius_: Hmmm.. I have /sbin/dhclient-script and /lib/dhcp3-client/call-dhclient-script
[06:41] <cocos> can i let xorg make its own xorg.conf?
[06:41] <qwe123> linux is cool but it gives me too much little problems... i even like this because i learn but many people would like this
[06:41] <rizla> is there a gui tool to reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[06:41] <predius_> Curtman: do what I told you on the /sbin one.
[06:41] <qwe123> wouldnt*
[06:41] <predius_> Curtman: or better yet.
[06:41] <predius_> Curtman: copy it to the folder in /etc/ and change it from there.
[06:41] <sorush20> hi what files do I need to install to be able to have open gl?
[06:42] <sorush20> I keep getting the mesa message..
[06:42] <Curtman> predius_: Shouldn't there be something I can add to /etc/networks/interfaces to tell it not to update?  This seems like it might be the hard way.  ;)
[06:42] <sorush20> I have ati card..
[06:42] <sorush20> and I@am using fglrx
[06:42] <shintonduchi> sorush20: look for xgl + beryl/compiz howto
[06:42] <cocos> can i let xorg make its own xorg.conf?
[06:42] <MeanGuy> quick question. does anyone know whats java package name?
[06:42] <shintonduchi> sorush20: just google it man
[06:43] <MeanGuy> im mean, can i install it with apt?
[06:43] <shintonduchi> sorush20: same as i do
[06:43] <riddlebox> MeanGuy, you can do apt-cache search java
[06:43] <MeanGuy> riddlebox,  done that, get so many results ;l
[06:43] <riddlebox> MeanGuy, I believe it is something like jre-runtime or something like that
[06:44] <MeanGuy> riddlebox,  :) thanx. lemme check
[06:44] <predius_> Curtman: dhcp client is the one which gets your dhcp.
