[12:20] <drhumanist> nbkr: ok..... shall i post from here?
[12:20] <raf256> what email client (GUI) is good for mass sending emails?
 ubuntu doesn't package the newest apps usually, you have to wait until some developer decides to use the newest package, this is sometimes convenient
[12:20] <jpwoods_7> thats for HD
[12:20] <jpwoods_7> do you have a HD monitor
[12:20] <raf256> that is, collect email addresses from Inbox; then we write an email, and that email get send to each person (separatelly) on the list
[12:20] <nbkr> drhumanist, can you upload it somewhere - please don't post it in the channel here.
[12:21] <gvsa123> chuy_max: how can it be convenient? for further testing?
 or maybe you have to wait til the next release, I'm relatively new to ubuntu, I come from debian
[12:21] <drhumanist> nbkr: well an email address would be of help :)
[12:21] <yeniklasorr> How can I set auto mount my partitions at startup ?
[12:21] <grndslm> jpwoods_7: ehh... well, it's HD, but the monitor doesn't have HDCP
[12:21] <chuy_max> gvsa123, stable packages
[12:21] <RioMerc> Repost: I'm wondering if you can change the contents of a text file via the terminal + SUDO, since the file I'm trying to mod is Root Owned
[12:21] <jpwoods_7> I C
[12:21] <gvsa123> chuy_max: i see. topic shift: how different is debian from ubuntu?
[12:21] <grndslm> i figure the software wouldn't care about HDCP, but this is all too confusing
[12:21] <jpwoods_7> its the same
[12:21] <nbkr> drhumanist, Sending you an address in private message.
[12:21] <jpwoods_7> lawl
[12:22] <drhumanist> nbkr: ok thx
[12:22] <jpwoods_7> ubuntu = debian
[12:22] <nbkr> drhumanist, should have received it.
[12:22] <jpwoods_7> well debian based
[12:22] <chuy_max> gvsa123 basically the same, but ubuntu releases are more frequent than debian's, debian policy is to have a very stable system
[12:22] <jpwoods_7> i find it easier but this channel is for help
[12:22] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: yeah... i understand, but isn't there a distro that's called debian only... i know that ubuntu is debian based, but...
[12:22] <gvsa123> chuy_max: and it's DE?
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> i've not heard of the "Debian" distro
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> lol
[12:23] <grndslm> anyone actually been able to decode 1080p VC-1 codec on their computer??
[12:23] <chuy_max> gvsa123, I suppose you know ubuntu copies the unstable version of debian, and make it stable
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> thers LOTS of them
[12:23] <jpwoods_7> but yea
[12:23] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes i did.... thanks... sending it now
[12:23] <chuy_max> gvsa123 DE?
[12:24] <gvsa123> chuy_max: desktop environment? that's the gnome, kde thing right?
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> grndslm your best bet (sad as it is) would be to get a different file type
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> =/
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> as for my ethernet not working....
 default at installation is gnome
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> can anyone help so i can start playing with ubuntu and get off of this crap vista
[12:24] <jpwoods_7> its lagging IRC
[12:25] <jpwoods_7> IRC!!!
[12:25] <nbkr> jpwoods_7, Searching for an IRC Client on Ubuntu? Try xchat
[12:25] <jpwoods_7> noooo
[12:25] <jpwoods_7> windows vista is laggin my irc client
[12:25] <RioMerc> Repost (Again): I'm wondering if you can change the contents of a text file via the terminal + SUDO, since the file I'm trying to mod is Root Owned
[12:26] <jpwoods_7> im looking for a solution to my internet not working on ubuntu
 yes you can
[12:26] <RioMerc> Oh really? How?
[12:26] <madgoat> just boot into the live cd
[12:26] <jpwoods_7> who
[12:26] <uakkeri> what is better in ubuntu than in kubuntu?
 it has been said a few minutes ago, sudo nano /path/to/file
[12:26] <RioMerc> Oh, thanks
[12:26] <jpwoods_7> uakkeri
[12:26] <kaushal_> find . -name "urltracker-urls_000_of_001*.0" -mtime "Apr" | wc -l
[12:26] <gvsa123> uakkeri: not everything starts with a K... lol
[12:26] <kaushal_> find: invalid argument `Apr' to `-mtime'
[12:26] <kaushal_> 0
[12:27] <drhumanist> nbkr: i sent the .conf file
 nothing, desktop environment is different, that's all
[12:27] <uakkeri> ok
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> they are just different programs just the same thing
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> uakkeri
[12:27] <uakkeri> i give it a try then
[12:27] <Jared-Moore> basically just personal preference
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> ubuntu > kubuntu
[12:27] <uakkeri> ok
[12:27] <gvsa123> uakkeri: i think ubuntu is more simplistic than kde
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> even in ubuntu you can try the k desktop
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> do sudo apt-get install kde
[12:27] <drhumanist> nbkr: you should've received it by now i guess
[12:27] <jpwoods_7> or whatever it is now
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> OMG
[12:28] <chuy_max> uakkeri if you already have ubuntu just install kubuntu packages
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> stop lagging irc ><
[12:28] <uakkeri> i want to start clean :)
[12:28] <nbkr> drhumanist, Yes I have - looks ok. Have you restarted the Xserver after modifing the file?
[12:28] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: won't that also install most of the KDE apps
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> no no
[12:28] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: then you'd have a messy menu... :)
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> actually
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> yess it would
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> lol
[12:28] <evoc> jpwoods_7: when you install kde does it cause problems with gnome installation?
[12:28] <jpwoods_7> but there is one where you can just install kde
[12:28] <drhumanist> nbkr: well no... shall i ?
[12:29] <jpwoods_7> or you can rip it of the programs (thats fun)
[12:29] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: plus having all kinds of apps that do the same thing...
[12:29] <jpwoods_7> evoc NO
[12:29] <uakkeri> i like ktorrent

[12:30] <drhumanist> sorry for that
[12:30] <Frogzoo> legal practices aren't welcome here? curious..
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> Can someone help ME
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> so i can play with ubuntu ..
[12:30] <steel_lady> Hi! I am looking for a program, so I need your recommendation. I need something similar like programs on win that take a movie and convert it to pocket format and reduce to some 128MB of size
 no
[12:30] <gvsa123> jpwoods_7: you don't have internet connection in ubuntu?
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> no
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> it will not connect
[12:30] <nbkr> drhumanist, Pressing ctrl-alt-backspace will restart X - but of course it will kill all X applications and you will have to login again. And to be honest - there might be the risk that the GUI doesn't restart correctly.
[12:30] <GNine> the GL type screensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:30] <jpwoods_7> im on windows vista atm and i hate it
[12:30] <chuy_max> jpwoods_7, is the NIC recognized?
[12:31] <jpwoods_7> O_O

[12:31] <jpwoods_7> same here
[12:32] <drhumanist> because the app is not running at the moment
[12:32] <Frogzoo> GNine: gl screensavers
[12:32] <nbkr> drhumanist, In theory, yes - but as I mentiond - this will kill X and all GUI applications - it will kill also your IRC client.
[12:32] <Xman> jpwoods_7 i have adirect internet connection
[12:32] <jpwoods_7> Xman
[12:32] <Xman> yes
[12:32] <nbkr> drhumanist, normaly X will restart after that
[12:32] <gvsa123> Xman: that seems to be jpwoods_7's problem... lol
[12:32] <drhumanist> nbkr: i did it a couple of min ago .. i can redo
[12:32] <Frogzoo> GNine: does glxgears work?
[12:32] <jpwoods_7> im not connected either thats why im here

[12:32] <kurosaki> Hiya guys, I'm trying to install the flashplayer via the info ubotu provides, I've followed the page but even with multiverse active apt complains that 'is not available, but is referred to by another package.'
[12:32] <nbkr> drhumanist, You did after changing xorg.conf file?
[12:33] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes i did.... now i am redoing it..... be back in no time
[12:33] <GNine> nothing that requires OpenGL acceleration seems to be functioning
[12:33] <Xman> gvsa123 can u help plz?
[12:33] <benkong2> hello
[12:34] <benkong2> would somone look here and tell me how to fix my dpkg error? http://pastebin.ca/673355
[12:34] <jrib> kurosaki: pastebin the output of 'sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree'
[12:34] <drhumanist> nbkr: i re-did
[12:34] <Xman> gvsa123
[12:34] <drhumanist> nbkr: nothing has changed
[12:34] <gvsa123> Xman: i'm not sure i can... not really that knowledgeable. but if you post your problem, someone with the knowledge might read it and know the solution... :)
[12:34] <uakkeri> how about the 64-bit ubuntu? is it already working well?
[12:34] <nbkr> drhumanist, Have a look into the file /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:34] <Xman> gvsa123 where i have to post it
[12:34] <nbkr> drhumanist, Does it state some errors?
[12:34] <GNine> flashplayer must be manually installed
[12:34] <kurosaki> jrib, will do.
[12:35] <jpwoods_7> Yea well ive lost months worth of files and work
[12:35] <rafa1> 664424497
[12:35] <jpwoods_7> and i need my computer running now
[12:35] <jpwoods_7> lol
[12:35] <GNine> just like JRE must also be manually installed
[12:35] <jrib> uakkeri: works fine, but proprietary stuff like flash and java plugin will give you extra work.  It isn't worth it if you don't know why you need 64bit
[12:35] <gvsa123> Xman: here. never had problems in ubuntu i didn't cause myself... internet worked right away.
[12:35] <Xman> gvsa123 where i have to post it
[12:35] <drhumanist> nbkr: yes i have it open
[12:35] <jrib> !please > steel_lady (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:36] <nbkr> drhumanist, Scroll down to then end. Does it say something about 1200x800 ?
[12:36] <uakkeri> uakkeri:you're right. thnx
[12:36] <steel_lady> !repeat
[12:36] <jpwoods_7> maybe i'll be back............
[12:36] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait.   Perhaps it's not quite up to date? Usually it's flawless though.
[12:38] <GNine> i use 1280x1024, very nice
[12:38] <nbkr> drhumanist, You don't speak german, do you? I found a solution in german linux board.
[12:38] <jrib> kurosaki: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[12:38] <zezom> does any one use tv out on there ubuntu system? I have a nvidia card
[12:38] <steel_lady> warbler, VLC is supposed to do that also, I tried and resulting files were unusable. I tried all possible combinations
[12:38] <kurosaki> jrib, Will do.
[12:38] <Bo1> awwwwwwww come on guys
[12:39] <drhumanist> nbkr: i am sorry - only english :(
[12:39] <jrib> zezom: I do, I just run 'gksudo nvidia-settins' and set it up with the gui there
[12:39] <nbkr> drhumanist, I will translate it for you.
[12:39] <jrib> zezom: I do, I just run 'gksudo nvidia-settings' and set it up with the gui there
[12:39] <drhumanist> nbkr: thanks
[12:39] <jrib> !please > Bo1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:39] <boontoo> I was wondering how i can view the Windows Network of my ethernet through ubuntu can anyone point me to a forum admittedly i haven't really tried google i decided to go strait to the horses mouth so to say
[12:39] <nbkr> drhumanist, one more question. Your xorg.conf states 1024x768 - So you have a screen in 16:9 format?
[12:39] <nbkr> drhumanist, or is it 4:3 like normal?
[12:40] <zezom> jrib, thanks:) I'll let you know how it goes
[12:40] <GNine> nvidia-settings messed up my set up
[12:40] <Bo1> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200, Step by step?
[12:40] <drhumanist> nbkr:yes 16:9 widescreen laptop
[12:40] <gvsa123> boontoo: try samba

[12:40] <warbler> steel_lady: I don't do those things but know from the ffmpeg mailing list that others do so using ffmpeg... all that I can do for now...
[12:40] <gvsa123> boontoo: :)
[12:41] <GNine> the GL type screensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:41] <kurosaki> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35365/
[12:41] <Bo1> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:41] <steel_lady> warbler, which mailing list?
[12:41] <EvaLuaTe> in /etc/security/limits.conf, what are 'soft' and 'hard' exactly, i can't understand what they actually do ...
[12:41] <boontoo> gvsa123: im on a shared network, they don't have samba or anything i just want something similar to a My Network Places if your familiar with the primitives of windows
[12:41] <jrib> kurosaki: you don't have feisty multiverse.  You only have feisty-backports multiverse
[12:41] <warbler> steel_lady: ffmpeg - will get url
[12:42] <kurosaki> jrib, Aha. I wondered about that. Thanks jrib.
[12:42] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: soft limits can be bumped up by the user
[12:42] <GNine> ffmpeg works well thru GXine
[12:42] <Bajo> warbler, I found that my partitions are in the GNOME FileSystem folder... when I double click them, it says hal-storage-fixed-mount refused uid 1000
[12:42] <gvsa123> boontoo: i may be wrong, but it works for me. i am able to view the windows network. you only configure samba on the linux end, but the windows side is good already
[12:42] <Bo1> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:42] <drhumanist> nbkr: i guess i am NOT the only one with this problem :)?
[12:42] <EvaLuaTe> Frogzoo, so if i set a hard limit will that be enough ?
[12:43] <nbkr> drhumanist, no you aren't. I just searched the web for an english howto. Which would be much simpler than translating the german one.
[12:43] <gvsa123> boontoo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605
[12:43] <GNine> normally dhcp should work for networking , add samba for intranet with windows computers
[12:43] <boontoo> gvsa123: ooh thanks haha =D
[12:43] <warbler> steel_lady: there is even #ffmpeg
[12:44] <steel_lady> ok, thanx warbler
[12:44] <drhumanist> nbkr: thanks.... i can get Babelfish to translate your German text..... maybe i can understan
[12:44] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: should do, I'm tinkering with that atm
[12:44] <nbkr> drhumanist, give it a try: http://www.linuxforen.de/forums/showthread.php?t=232885
[12:45] <EvaLuaTe> Frogzoo, sorry but i'm new to linux and i would like to limit the number of processes for some users, that's all :)
[12:45] <warbler> Bajo: don't know how to help further - only use distro kernals myself...
[12:45] <drhumanist> nbkr: all the page or a specific fragment which might be more closely related to my problem?
[12:45] <Bajo> warbler, ok!
[12:45] <warbler> lol
[12:46] <boontoo> gvsa123: my problem i guess is my internet is very much a plug and play, i just have an cat5 port in my appartment that my net plugs into, i cant port forward, set static ips, configure routers or anything =(
[12:46] <gvsa123> boontoo: one thing that was missing with that tut is to add the IP of the windows box in /etc/hosts
[12:46] <kurosaki> jrib, Okies that seemed to do the trick but, after it downloaded the .tar.gz I got a md5 error :/ md5sum mismatch install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz The Flash plugin is NOT installed.
[12:46] <boontoo> gvsa123: im sure wireshark can do that
[12:46] <GNine> the GL type screensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:46] <nox-Hand> Let's hypothesise I *accidentally* installed an unstable newer version of libc6 on my Computer and now I need to get the old one back... I downloaded the original stable version, but in gdebi, it says that a newer version is already insatlled. I cannot uninstall the version I got, as 90% of my packages depend on it. How would I replace it? o_o
[12:46] <boontoo> especially as i don't know the IP's theres about 50 of them
[12:47] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: "@group                hard    nproc           1023"
[12:47] <gvsa123> boontoo: i didn't do those and my xp and fiesty communicates quite well.
[12:47] <jrib> kurosaki: k, it's a bug that's fixed in feisty-security multiverse  and  feisty-updates multiverse (enabling either one should get you the new version of the package)
[12:47] <boontoo> gvsa123: i guess all i can do is try
[12:47] <kurosaki> jrib, Righto, was just about to ask that since it's mentioned on that page. Thanks again.
[12:49] <nbkr> drhumanist, Here is something in english: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2046663#post2046663
[12:49] <gvsa123> boontoo: the ip's are only needed for name resolution or something like that... well it's supposed to speed up the access times. that's one of the problems i encountered
[12:49] <kurosaki> jrib, Viola! Much appreciated.
[12:49] <gvsa123> boontoo: no expert here.... just sharing what worked for me.. :)\
[12:49] <GNine> nox-Hand,  u still should be to accomplish that thru synaptic
[12:49] <GNine> *albe
[12:49] <boontoo> gvsa123: i guess a windows partition would be handy to get the IPs aslong as they are static i guess
[12:49] <drhumanist> nbkr: i got it translated.... they say i may need an application called xmode to alter the lines in conf
[12:49] <GNine> *able
[12:49] <boontoo> gvsa123: no problem im far far far from expert so any advice helps
[12:50] <drhumanist> nbkr: opening the english one now

[12:50] <kevor> when is cron.daily run, what time i mean
[12:50] <alimurat> hey everyone
[12:50] <gvsa123> boontoo: if you only want to connect to the windows network, i think samba should do the trick.
[12:51] <alimurat> i need some help..
[12:51] <GNine> Kevor, u have so much reading ahead of you
[12:51] <boontoo> gvsa123: does it suport a novel client login? or should i not be asking so many lazy questions heh
[12:51] <alimurat> simple things; first, i need to have a root password
[12:51] <kevor> GNine: howcome?
[12:51] <gvsa123> boontoo: lost me there... haha
[12:51] <GNine> how is
[12:51] <jrib> !root > alimurat (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:52] <drhumanist> nbkr: they say i should try automatix.... but should i uninstall Nvidia restricted drivers first? if yes how?
[12:52] <alimurat> ok, i read it
[12:52] <nbkr> drhumanist, Here is another one. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=115373&highlight=1200x800 - Seems that you need some modelines on the xorg.conf.
[12:52] <alimurat> but i need to install somn' so need to have have a password
[12:52] <GNine> even if your WAN is down and you are physically connected to any computer on your intranet , you should be able to connect thru samba
[12:52] <alimurat> just installed my ubuntu and did not have a root password yet
[12:53] <drhumanist> nbkr: should i try AUTOMATIX? what do you think?
[12:53] <GNine> !root | alimurat
[12:53] <ubotu> alimurat: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[12:53] <nocti> kevor: the timestamp on the /var/spool/cron/lastrun/cron.daily determines when the cron.daily scripts are run

[12:53] <nbkr> drhumanist, I wouldn't Automatix just installes the drivers - but you did that already.
[12:53] <Bo2> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:54] <alimurat> jrib: i want to install the murrine configurator
[12:54] <drhumanist> nbkr: ok
[12:54] <jrib> nox-Hand: if you don't have backups, make them now.  You can try 'apt-get install PACKAGE=VERSION' to downgrade a package
[12:54] <gvsa123> alimurat: it's probably your login password that's needed
[12:54] <alimurat> no, it did not work
[12:54] <Bo2> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[12:54] <GNine> the GLscreensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[12:54] <alimurat> can you help me to install it for a couple of minutes?
[12:55] <teKnofreak> !patience | Bo2
[12:55] <ubotu> Bo2: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[12:55] <jrib> alimurat: how are you trying to install it?
[12:55] <Bo2> ok
[12:55] <gvsa123> alimurat: what are you doing?
[12:55] <alimurat> well, first, i tried to find murrine in synaptic
[12:55] <Bo2> be back in 5min
[12:55] <alimurat> than found it, checked for installation
[12:55] <alimurat> it said, that it was complete
[12:56] <jrib> !enter | alimurat
[12:56] <ubotu> alimurat: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:56] <evoc> ciao
[12:56] <evoc> sorry
[12:56] <alimurat> so, then i searched the murrine in applications, but could not find it
[12:56] <evoc> wrong window
[12:56] <drhumanist> nbkr: i read both the english ones.... they provide product specific information.... which lines i should append and where - nothing told about that :(
[12:56] <teKnofreak> alimurat, try "locate alimurat" in the terminal
[12:56] <dewp> ola
[12:57] <teKnofreak> alimurat, err... locate murrine
[12:57] <alimurat> i teknofreak, i did it now, there were lots of writens..:)
[12:57] <GNine> some packages install programs that can only be run from command line
[12:57] <dewp> after installing the recent nvidia driver, x gives the followin error "this nvidia driver component has version 100.14.11 but the nvidia kernel module's version does not match"
[12:57] <alimurat> :D
[12:57] <alimurat> ok
[12:57] <drhumanist> nbkr: is there a script or package to solve that?
[12:57] <teKnofreak> alimurat, whereis murrine
[12:57] <alimurat> nowhere...:(
[12:57] <alimurat> there's nothing happened
[12:57] <jrib> alimurat: the murrine engine is in the ubuntu repos, but murrine configurator is not
[12:57] <dewp> does anyone know this? i can't see the reason, because the kernel module was compiled with the installation
[12:57] <teKnofreak> alimurat, what is murrine btw ?
[12:57] <gvsa123> alimurat: that mean you have it installed. it's the launcher you are looking for...
[12:57] <alimurat> ok
[12:58] <alimurat> could someone give a hand to do it in the right way?
[12:58] <tuxcrafte1> hello guys, how do i disable aiglx under gusty?
[12:58] <nox-Hand> jrib: Excellent :)
[12:58] <gnomefreak> tuxcrafte1: ask in #ubuntu+1
[12:58] <aogara> user/groups pb solved
[12:58] <aogara> thanks
[12:58] <alimurat> so, how will i install the launcher.. gvsal23
[12:59] <alimurat> gvsa123, sorry...
[12:59] <jrib> alimurat: usually there are README and INSTALL files with instructions on how to install tar.gz archives and the like
[12:59] <drhumanist> nbkr: so i have to enter lines manually?
[12:59] <alimurat> i'm too fresh for that things, believe me i tried..:(
[12:59] <teKnofreak> is murrine an app or an engine?
[12:59] <raf256> what email client (GUI) is good for mass sending emails?
[12:59] <raf256> that is, collect email addresses from Inbox; then we write an email, and that email get send to each person (separatelly) on the list
 engine
[12:59] <GNine> the GLscreensavers are not working. i noticed i dont have gstreamer0.10-gl installed by synaptic, could this be the cause of the malfunction?
[01:00] <jrib> teKnofreak: there is a murrine engine, but alimurat asked about "murrine configurator" which helps to configure it
[01:00] <gvsa123> alimurat: usually, you type in the name of the application in the terminal. most often than not how they appear in synaptics is how you type them in... i'm not sure of a command to know the command though
[01:00] <yeniklasorr> VSpike : I don't believe it really worked perfectly. That was amazing boot.
[01:00] <teKnofreak> jrib, ah ok :)
[01:00] <alimurat> brb
[01:00] <aogara> another one for you :  my display resolution is limited to 640x480 ... i modifyed my xorg.conf for 800x600 as minima but it don't works ... I use the default driver
[01:00] <drhumanist> nbkr: are we still in touch :)=
[01:00] <aogara> I would like to set to 800x600 manually
[01:01] <agus_bt> .com
[01:01] <chuy_max> aogara system -> preferences -> screen resolution
[01:01] <aogara> yeah i tried
[01:01] <VSpike> yeniklasorr: great news!
[01:02] <warbler> aogara: what's the card?
[01:02] <yeniklasorr> yep :D
[01:02] <VSpike> yeniklasorr: thanks, it was good to learn about that for me too
[01:02] <jrib> alimurat: http://murrine.netsons.org/?q=node/8 is a simple python executable with instructions in the README file
[01:02] <alimurat> ok, so where can i ask about it, mean, the murrine configurator?
[01:02] <teKnofreak> aogara, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:02] <teKnofreak> aogara, backitup before you edit
[01:02] <yeniklasorr> VSpike : thank you too to
[01:02] <aogara> don't really know .. integrated card ... on hp proliant ML 110
[01:02] <alimurat> jrib... please
[01:03] <jrib> alimurat: yes?
[01:03] <alimurat> i have downloaded it already
[01:03] <aogara> nowhere to find which chipset it is
[01:03] <jrib> alimurat: did you extract it?
[01:03] <GNine> i take it that no one here knows about OpenGL
[01:03] <alimurat> tell me how to install it in terminal
[01:03] <alimurat> yes, extracted
[01:03] <nox-Hand> What way was it I could list all packages on my system and send that list to a file?
[01:03] <aogara> teKnofreak: I did
[01:03] <jrib> alimurat: did you read the newmurrineconfigurator/README file?
[01:03] <teKnofreak> aogara, restart X then
[01:03] <faileas> !grub
[01:03] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[01:03] <alimurat> let me check if i have or not... jrib
[01:04] <aogara> I restarted the whole system ^^ .. that's why i'm supprised and asks
[01:04] <warbler> aogara: system-preferences-hardware
[01:04] <teKnofreak> alimurat, read the INSTALL and README files which accompanies a package, they tell you lot of things
[01:04] <alimurat> off course, now i'm checking it
[01:05] <GNine> that ***ing configurator is a nice topic     lol
[01:05] <icone> bood morning
[01:05] <icone> good*
[01:05] <alimurat> i did not read it because that file had to be extracted twice, but i did it just once for maybe it must kept that way..
[01:05] <GNine> not
[01:05] <Bo2> how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[01:06] <warbler> !nvidia
[01:06] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:06] <aogara> i'll take a look
[01:06] <nox-Hand> !clone
[01:06] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[01:06] <GNine> there are only a few options for nvidia to work on ubuntu.. they are all in the synaptic package manager
[01:07] <GNine> the rest is to have it properly configured for the xserver
[01:07] <GNine> the end
[01:07] <icone> anybody know why I cant download ubuntu 7.0.4 i386 alternate version ?     it returns a error message when i click the download link (error to change directory). Then I accessed thru ftp and the directory v 7.04 isn't there.
[01:07] <NET||abuse> this is sucky , i've been hacking away trying to get my flash sound back,, i've used the alsa-oss and firefoxrc dsp change with no success.. can anyone help me?
[01:07] <ari_stress> good afternoon :)
[01:07] <Shaffox> Is it easy to use photoshop in linux?
[01:07] <NET||abuse> I had sound in flash at one stage in my life,, but it's been gone a month now.. i really need sound
[01:07] <Frogzoo> icone: get the torrent maybe: http://mirror.mcs.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/feisty/release/ubuntu-7.04-dvd-i386.iso.torrent
[01:08] <teKnofreak> Shaffox, try Gimp ;)
[01:08] <GNine> !flash
[01:08] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[01:08] <Shaffox> teKnofreak, The photoshop community is a lot bigger than gimp's
[01:09] <boontoo> gvsa123: it asks for a password but i have no password policy on that machine this is odd isnt it =(
[01:09] <viktor> how to install Mach TV Tuner card with Philips chipset on Ubuntu Feisty
[01:09] <drhumanist> guys.... I have a problem with the resolution.... i have 7.04 updated, with Nvidia drivers loaded. I have Toshiba A-100 599 with Nvidia GeForce 7600...
[01:09] <drhumanist> I just cannot get 1200x800 which is the native resolution
[01:09] <GNine> !root
[01:09] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[01:09] <drhumanist> they say i have to define some modes in the xorg.conf file but i don't know how to!!
[01:10] <GNine> of course .. i you had set up a user password.. then that is you root password.. go do some reading
[01:10] <gvsa123> boontoo: if i recall correctly, when your windows machine doesn't have a password, you leave it blank... or create a password for it would be easier and safer i guess.. :)
[01:10] <teKnofreak> the intel drivers rock.. they have really transformed my desktop into much better one
[01:10] <icone> frogzoo do you have the cd version ?     (not the livecd, the alternate version) ?
[01:10] <boontoo> lol windows..safe =p
[01:10] <firexdcc> hi
[01:10] <drhumanist> anyone who read my question? :)
[01:10] <icone> ubuntu!
[01:10] <warbler> drhumanist: one step at a time - open a terminal
[01:10] <drhumanist> yes
[01:10] <gvsa123> boontoo: juuuust a little bit... :)
[01:10] <drhumanist> warbler: yes
[01:10] <Frogzoo> icone: there's torrents for all of them, just look in the directory of that url
[01:11] <icone> frogzoo tnks man
[01:11] <boontoo> more like sudo apt-get install thchydra
[01:11] <drhumanist> warbler: i opened the terminal :)
[01:11] <NET||abuse> GNine, i've already read the ubuntu feisty faq, and tried the alsa-oss fix, my flash will still not play.
[01:12] <NET||abuse> this has to be fixable as flash worked on this install previously without any changes to the default setup
[01:12] <GNine> some things change
[01:12] <NET||abuse> It just ceased to work one day last month, and i just do not know why it didn't work
[01:12] <GNine> what you need to figure out is what
[01:12] <warbler> type sudo gedit  /etc/X11.xorg.conf
[01:12] <nimbo> hi, how can i delete my mysql database and reset it?
[01:13] <drhumanist> warbler: yes
[01:13] <larson9999> NET||abuse: flash does have issues.  i have 4 machines.  it hardly ever crashes on 2.  on the other 2 it crashes all the time.
[01:13] <GNine> i dont like flash.. too intrusive

[01:30] <teKnofreak> j4n3, apt-get install gnome-volume-manager
[01:30] <boontoo> my bluetooth device is on my wireless card aswell but i dont think linux is detecting it
[01:30] <warbler> drhumanist:reading
[01:31] <larson9999> i wonder if my flash woes stem from upgrading instead of fresh installs.  the 2 boxes that don't have issues are both laptops with fresh installs.  the 2 i have issues with are desktops with years of upgrades.
[01:31] <drhumanist> warbler: Oki
[01:31] <teKnofreak> boontoo, you have the bluez-utils ?
[01:31] <Actionman> when i boot up how can i see whats behind the boot screen?
[01:31] <boontoo> teKnofreak: yeh i do
[01:31] <Pici> Bo2: As of Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) the recommended way to install the binary drivers is to use System  Administration  Restricted Devices Manager.
[01:31] <teKnofreak> boontoo, is the bluetooth daemon running in services ?
[01:31] <boontoo> yep
[01:32] <Pici> Bo2: Do you understand?
[01:32] <boontoo> teKnofreak: sudo /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart            [OK]
[01:32] <Bo2> pici:i think
[01:32] <j4n3> teKnofreak: this not solve my problem. i cannot open "volume control" on the mixer systray icon ...
[01:32] <Pici> Bo2: Why dont you try doing that and ask me if you need any help.
[01:32] <teKnofreak> j4n3, type gnome-volume-manager in terminal
[01:32] <boontoo> teKnofreak: then hcitool dev reveals nothing =(
[01:32] <teKnofreak> boontoo, turn your bluetooth on and off and check dmsg
[01:33] <Bo2> pici:how do i install e-GeForce FX5200 step by step?
[01:33] <Laugh> drhumanist: on this xchat application, for now, there is no special window i can see between the tabs
[01:33] <Pici> Bo2: Is the card physically in the machine yet?
[01:33] <warbler> drhumanist: xorg.conf again - section screen - lines:Identifyer & Device - What's there
[01:33] <Bo2> pici:no

[01:33] <Pici> Bo2: I think it would be best to consult a channel like ##hardware for issues like that.
[01:34] <Pici> Bo2: just /join ##hardware

[01:34] <teKnofreak> j4n3, it works for me
[01:34] <teKnofreak> j4n3, when you execute it in terminal, what error do you get ?
[01:34] <warbler> drhumanist: & the line for Device?
[01:34] <drhumanist> laugh: dedim ki biraz daha sakin olunca isler kolaylasir ;)

[01:35] <drhumanist> ok ok :)
[01:36] <drhumanist> warbler: can  i initiate a special session?
[01:36] <warbler> drhumanist: just checking the driver is alldunno?
[01:36] <warbler> *
[01:36] <tony_tomato> anyone having issues w gnochm and xchm? I think its a font/unicode issue certain characters turn into white-boxes such as long dash... when i convert to html i can see the character but its no longer a unified book :)
[01:37] <drhumanist> warbler: i can send the whole file if you want
[01:37] <boontoo> teKnofreak: would i be greping for just bluetooth or could theyre be conflicts

[01:37] <Pici> tony_tomato: The only thing I can suggest would be to install msttcorefonts.
[01:38] <Pici> tony_tomato: If that doesnt help, then I'm not sure what the issue is.
[01:38] <warbler> drhumanist: to me the driver is not giving you yhe options it should - have you -in terminal - typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[01:38] <laptop> How do I save the file after editing it using vi?
[01:39] <boontoo> teKnofreak: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35376/
[01:39] <drhumanist> warbler: yes i tried it with another person from this channel... it did not help... he told me to DEFINE a MODE by hand.
[01:39] <larson9999> laptop: you should read just a bit on vi before using it.  it's a whole other animal.
[01:40] <drhumanist> warbler: i did it again...
[01:40] <warbler> drhumanist: if the driver is right it should give the resolutions... - which source for the driver did you use?
[01:40] <danielig> hi ubuntistas
[01:40] <drhumanist> warbler: maybe i did it in a wrong way last time... could you give step by step info?
[01:40] <jrib> laptop: ESCAPE and then  :w        But you should really run 'vimtutor' to learn to use vim
[01:41] <danielig> I still have  a trouble compiling a programm with gcc
[01:41] <warbler> drhumanist: when you sudo dpkg - what selections do you make??
[01:41] <danielig> I have installed build-essential
[01:41] <drhumanist> warbler: i should probably choose NVIDIA from the menu, right?
[01:41] <stimpie> danielig, what is the error? and did you install g++?
[01:41] <warbler> drhumanist:bloody well YES hehe :)
[01:42] <drhumanist> warbler: now i am redoing. :D
[01:42] <drhumanist> warbler: i selected NVIDIA AGAIN :)
[01:42] <Dumptruck> hello everyone
[01:42] <laptop> How do I save the file after editing it using vi?
[01:42] <drhumanist> warbler: it say to give a name to identify my card: i will type NVIDIA GEFORCE 7600, is that OK?
[01:42] <warbler> drhumanist: after hit cntl-alt-bksp to restart x
[01:42] <tony_tomato> Pici, already installed :(
[01:43] <Pici> tony_tomato: I'm not sure then :/
[01:43] <warbler> yes
[01:43] <ben_underscore> laptop: <esc> :w
[01:43] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles.  any fixes?
[01:43] <tony_tomato> anyone else.. know how to resolve font issue in gnochm?
[01:43] <laptop> thanks
[01:43] <drhumanist> warbler: it says it is being configured: how long should the process take normally??
[01:43] <drhumanist> how long should i wait
[01:44] <ben_underscore> laptop: vi has a steep learning curve but is indispensable once you're there
[01:44] <Dumptruck> I know I am late in the conversation, but I used envy to set up my nvidia card and it worked like a champ
[01:44] <warbler> drhumanist: it done yet - if not wait
[01:44] <kauer> laptop: ESC to exit insert mode, then colon, w, ENTER to write the file. The colon q ENTER to quit. Or to do both at once, colon wq ENTER
[01:44] <Pici> !envy
[01:44] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[01:44] <laptop> ben_underscore, kauer thanks :)
[01:44] <danielig> I have installed g++ stimpie and I have following output in config.log: http://pastebin.ca/670159
[01:45] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: I just went through a day of pain after installing a driver with envy. I had to recover my system without x and it was not nice
[01:45] <Dumptruck> hmm... maybe I was a lucky one
[01:45] <drhumanist> warbler: there is a last screen giving info.... and an OK box to click
[01:45] <drhumanist> well i press ENTER but nothing happens... anything else i have to do??
[01:45] <Dumptruck> envy for me was a last resort
[01:45] <Dumptruck> and it worked
[01:45] <kauer> laptop: unless you are prepared to spend a few hours getting to know vi, you would probably be better off sticking with nano, which is the default editor on feisty.
[01:45] <warbler> drhumanist: click
[01:46] <drhumanist> i did
[01:46] <ben_underscore> laptop: or gedit :-)
[01:46] <warbler> &
[01:46] <drhumanist> i doesnt propmt me in any way that the process is completed... IS THIS NORMAL?
[01:46] <laptop> kauer, actually I was helping my friend edit his .bashrc and he's using RedHat. pico wasn't installed so the only other editer I could think was vi. I forgot about nano
[01:46] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: for sure, i understand
[01:46] <warbler> drhumanist: I would reboot it now!
[01:46] <laptop> It worked now :)
[01:47] <drhumanist> warbler: ctrl alt bckspc is OK or a real restart?
[01:47] <danielig> stimpie: I really appreciate your help. I have no clue, the error appears on line 66
[01:47] <warbler> drhumanist: I would reboot now
[01:47] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles specially the openGL type.  any fixes?
[01:47] <drhumanist> ok
[01:48] <Dumptruck> is anyone familiar with vmware?
[01:48] <GNine> they were good just yesterday
[01:48] <warbler> !vmware
[01:48] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[01:48] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: a little
[01:48] <Bucketface> Did I get D/c or somethingD;?
[01:49] <danielig> has anyone an idea how I can get a movie from a sony handycam to my ubuntu feisty?
[01:49] <Dumptruck> if I am running a 32 bit linux can a 64 bit version of Vista be run with vm?
[01:49] <stimpie> danielig: dont know what could cause that, but gcc giving a segfault is serious
[01:49] <boontoo> !bluetooth
[01:49] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[01:50] <stimpie> danielig: I would try another gcc version
[01:50] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: i cannot imaging why not -- vmware just does the hardware emulation
[01:50] <Dumptruck> i see
[01:51] <boontoo> that guide is completly useless because it assumes that your ubuntu recognises the bluetooht device
[01:51] <danielig> exactly stimpie, but no-one else seemed to have this problem. I wanted to test the gcc with a simple hello world programm, but I don't know how this would work, I have written a hellow world, now I want to compile it with: gcc -c helloword.c ?
[01:51] <Dumptruck> what is the best way to merge to partitions and set the permissions on hd's?
[01:51] <Dumptruck> *two not to
[01:51] <danielig> I have tried with gcc 3.4., did not work...
[01:51] <stimpie> danielig: gcc -o helloworld.c should do it
[01:51] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: have you seen this to create your VM http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml
[01:52] <drhumanist> warbler
[01:52] <drhumanist> i rebooted....
[01:52] <boontoo> anybody been able to install ubuntu bluetooth devices?
[01:52] <drhumanist> nothinng has changed
[01:52] <ben_underscore> boontoo: yes i installed a bluetooth mouse
[01:52] <Dumptruck> I tried used the Howtoforge website with really good success
[01:52] <regis_> hello, how can i use a kernel from gusty guibon(i need that for my N intel wifi)
[01:52] <danielig> stimpie: no input files... although helloworld.c is there...
[01:53] <ben_underscore> boontoo: but it was a pain and i abandoned it :-)
[01:53] <warbler> drhumanist: control center
[01:53] <boontoo> ben_underscore: i have a bluetooth device thats the same as my wireless card, its onboard, ubuntu detects the wireless but not the bluetooth any ideas?
[01:53] <boontoo> oh
[01:53] <boontoo> ok
[01:53] <drhumanist> warbler: yes
[01:53] <Chinaski1> i
[01:53] <Chinaski1> hi
[01:53] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles specially the openGL type.  any fixes?
[01:54] <kauer> stimpie: danielig: "gcc -o helloworld.c" may destroy the source code in "helloworld.c". Try  "gcc -o helloworld helloworld.c"...
[01:54] <stimpie> oeps my mistake sorry
[01:54] <warbler> drhumanist: what resolutions are available?
[01:54] <Dumptruck> can I set permissions in gparted?

[01:55] <danielig> see <URL:file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.1/README.Bugs>.
[01:55] <cromo> hi. I have some problems with qc-usb-messenger kernel module compilation. For some reason it segfaults (gcc: Internal error: Segmentation fault (program cc1)). Using feisty here and I am wonderign what's wrong. I tried compiling this module on other machine (archlinux, gcc 4.2.1) and it worked just fine.
[01:55] <jrib> danielig: use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org please
[01:55] <cromo> so I wonder if something is broken in feisty's gcc?
[01:55] <cromo> basically, it's enough to download http://home.mag.cx/messenger/source/qc-usb-messenger-1.6.tar.gz package, untar it and exec a typical 'make all' in the directory
[01:55] <Chinaski1> does samba protocol save a log file of his activity?(connections, loging etc.)
[01:56] <cromo> anyone can please confirm that he gets the error?
[01:56] <cromo> Chinaski1: not sure if it does by default, but you can enable it in /etc/smb.conf
[01:56] <kauer> cromo, meet danielig :-)
[01:56] <drhumanist> warbler: i reiterate i was told to define some modes inxorg.conf by hand
[01:56] <drhumanist> :)
[01:56] <cromo> danielig: u there?
[01:57] <danielig> sorry jrib, I am there
[01:57] <warbler> drhumanist: OK - setup can take time. Terminal again - up button for last command - in sudo dpkg pick nv driver
[01:57] <danielig> cromo
[01:57] <danielig> ?
[01:58] <cromo> danielig: kauer suggested you might be helpfull (at least I hope so) in my gcc issue.
[01:58] <cromo> ;-)
[01:58] <danielig> so what is your issue?
[01:58] <warbler> drhumanist: define modes to me just means typing them in but that doesn't work - yes?
[01:59] <kauer> cromo: No, you were just asking if anyone had seen this. Danielig has. Dunno if he can help though...
[01:59] <cromo> danielig: I explained it just a page or two above
[01:59] <cromo> ar
[01:59] <cromo> I see
[01:59] <drhumanist> warbler: well NO: i was told i should add some MORE LINES... but he also didnot know how :(
[01:59] <kauer> danielig, please paste your helloworld.c to thepastebin...
[01:59] <danielig> cromo, I have the same segfault error, but I don't know why not everybody has this error...
[02:00] <nox-Hand> I *need* to kill the DOS speaker in my Dell M65 laptop - how?
[02:00] <drhumanist> warbler: i did what you said in the terminal: it says : "dpkg: need an action option
[02:00] <nox-Hand> No BIOS ways.
[02:00] <warbler> drhumanist: the line depth 24 is the one that should have the res you want
[02:00] <danielig> kauer: helloworld.c is on : http://pastebin.ca/673425
[02:00] <kauer> nox-Hand: Stick a knitting needle through it.
[02:01] <tony_> kk
[02:01] <drhumanist> warbler: well depth 24 already HAS it... i put it there by myself.. but still no changes
[02:01] <Dumptruck> so I have created a vmx file on an external drive but I would like to migrate it to a sata drive, I used gparted to format two partions on one drive, however I am unable to write to those partitions, a few years back a experimented with fedora and I seem to remember using a chmod command as a root - although I don't know how to do this in Ubuntu - there is no way to give gparted root privligages in ubuntu?
[02:01] <warbler> drhumanist: in terminal press the up button on the keyboard
[02:01] <ben_underscore> nox-Hand: system --> preferences --> sound --> system beep
[02:01] <drhumanist> warbler: yeah
[02:02] <danielig> cromo: So I guess that most of the people here with feisty either a: never had to compile a programme, or b: that there is some other conflict with gcc (unlikely)
[02:02] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: run gparted via sudo
[02:02] <warbler> drhumanist: looking for sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:02] <jrib> danielig: g++ helloworld.c  gives you the same error?
[02:02] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: or copy the file using sudo cp
[02:02] <stimpie> danielig, try to compile with g++
[02:02] <Dumptruck> in console just type sudo gparted?
[02:03] <Dumptruck> sorry I am still pretty new
[02:03] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: just let me read what you're trying to do again ... hang on
[02:03] <drhumanist> warbler: yes i found it... now?
[02:03] <danielig> stimpie: g++ works fine
[02:04] <alecwh> Hello! I'm looking for a sound converter that can convert a .m4a file to a .mp3 file. Can someone recommend a program?
[02:04] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: have you created 2 partitions on an external drive? do these mount / appear on your desktop when you connect the drive?
[02:04] <warbler> drhumanist: enter & when you can select "nv" for the driver
[02:04] <danielig> could it be that I should have done the compilation of that programm with g++ but somehow it chooses gcc?
[02:04] <Wousser> hello, i upgraded from feisty to gutsy but now my system freezes after the ubunu loading bar, before gnome. What can I do?
[02:04] <jrib> danielig: what is "it"?
[02:05] <drhumanist> warbler: okay i did, now restart again?
[02:05] <warbler> k
[02:05] <danielig> it is alsa-driver-1.0.14
[02:05] <jrib> Wousser: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy support
[02:05] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: no - it is an internal drive and no it doesn't show on the desktop
[02:05] <kauer> danielig: See your paste for my results with a clean install of build-essential.
[02:05] <defrysk> alecwh, audacity ?
[02:06] <Wousser> jrib: my fault, just remebered it
[02:06] <danielig> I just did ./configure like I am supposed to..
[02:06] <Dumptruck> wait when I connect to the drive yes
[02:06] <Dumptruck> sorry
[02:06] <B_Man> hows everyone this morning?
[02:06] <alecwh> defrysk, does auacity do that?
[02:06] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: so you can see it. what filesystem type did you create it as, ext3?
[02:06] <stimpie> danielig try compiling http://www.klaproos.net/helloworld.c with gcc
[02:06] <Dumptruck> yes - ext3
[02:06] <defrysk> alecwh, open it with audacity and save it as an mp3
[02:07] <defrysk> alecwh, not sure but woth a try
[02:07] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: and is this vmx file sitting somewhere else on another disk?
[02:07] <alecwh> I odn't have audicity, I'll download right now.
[02:07] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:07] <B_Man> audacity is a handy editor
[02:07] <Dumptruck> but before I migrate the file I would like to join the two partitions
[02:07] <alecwh> what's the apt-get command?
[02:07] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: and so you cannot copy the file from the source disk to the destination disk due to permissions?
[02:07] <jrib> danielig: 1. did you install build-essential  2. why are you compiling alsa?
[02:07] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:08] <alecwh> Ok, installing.
[02:08] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: then the best bet is to open up a terminal session (applications --> accessories --> terminal)
[02:08] <danielig> kauer: what do you mean, my paste: http://pastebin.ca/670159? I don't see anything there.
[02:08] <defrysk> alecwh, otherwise try soundconverter of for kde soundkonverter
[02:08] <Dumptruck> done
[02:08] <kauer> danielig: The test program in your configure dump compiles just fine for me using gcc after a clean install of build-essential.
[02:08] <alecwh> Ok. It's only one song. XD
[02:09] <defrysk> ok
[02:09] <kauer> danielig: Your later paste, of the helloworld program...
[02:09] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: and then copy the file using sudo, which essentially executes it as root, like so "sudo cp /source/drive/file.vmx /destination/drive/file.vmx"
[02:09] <danielig> jrib: I have installed and re-installed (after purge) build-essential, I have downgraded to earlier gcc version and upgraded again...
[02:09] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: that should do it
[02:09] <RamiLeija> yes
[02:09] <t94xr> how do i open a folder window with root access?
[02:09] <jrib> t94xr: why?
[02:09] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: first I would like to make one big partition
[02:10] <t94xr> mounted hard drive
[02:10] <jrib> t94xr: what filesystem?
[02:10] <t94xr> ntfs
[02:10] <danielig> jrib: I have a Lenovo 300 N100 Laptop and sound is not working, . researching the web I found that I should recompile the newest Alsa driver in order for sound to come up.
[02:10] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > t94xr (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:10] <WooD> Hi ! Is there any good software to make backup of the /var/www  I mean the website ?
[02:10] <t94xr> no im in a live cd
[02:10] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: ah. you'll need to copy off the files on there and then gparted the whole drive
[02:10] <t94xr> i only want read only access
[02:10] <jrib> t94xr: gksudo nautilus
[02:11] <jrib> !backup > WooD (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:11] <stimpie> danielig: are you running 64bit?
[02:11] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore and if it is a variable size file - won't the permissions need to be changed?
[02:11] <WooD> jrib: thanks
[02:11] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: no, but you'll need to make sure you have enough space on the drive
[02:11] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: that's the thing gparted won't let me format the whole drive
[02:12] <jrib> danielig: that error you have in config.log usually pops up because ld is missing which binutils provides.  If you're sure you have binutils, then try running ./configure in a clean source
[02:12] <danielig> no stimpie
[02:12] <Dumptruck> I don't have the proper permissions
[02:12] <danielig> what you  mean in a clean source?
[02:12] <stimpie> have you installled, libc6-dev-i386 ?
[02:13] <jrib> danielig: tar xf foo.tar.gz  again
[02:13] <drhumanist> warbler: i did... nothing again :(
[02:13] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: oh, der. sorry about that .... yes run it using sudo, ie: gksudo gparted
[02:13] <warbler> drhumanist: control center for res
[02:13] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: gksudo is the way to run x apps as sudo
[02:13] <steel_lady> ok, I need a way to save 4GB SD card. The system doesn't see it. They told me that I should just reformat it but I don't know how
[02:14] <drhumanist> warbler: still the same things... no 1200x800
[02:14] <Dumptruck> still won't let me unmount to resize
[02:14] <Pelo> morning folks ,  anyone know if OOo is default in xubuntu ?
[02:15] <jrib> Pelo: it is not
[02:15] <Dumptruck> when I unmount one the other becomes mounted (locked)
[02:15] <Pelo> jrib,  thanks
[02:15] <danielig> okay... jrib, no chance, same error.
[02:15] <warbler> drhumanist: had more troubles than this in windows - next - can you open synaptic package manager & search "nvidia"
[02:15] <danielig> cromo: what is happening on your side?
[02:15] <Frogzoo> steel_lady: gparted should work
[02:15] <Dumptruck> and unmounting the extended is not an option
[02:15] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  when playing around with partitions you would do better to use the live cd
[02:15] <kitche> Pelo, I think it just has OOo word processor
[02:15] <jrib> danielig: apt-cache policy binutils  returns?
[02:15] <drhumanist> warbler: thanks for the consollation :):):)
[02:15] <Dumptruck> still running under gksudo
[02:15] <drhumanist> warbler: i am doing that
[02:15] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: ah, go to system --> preferences --> removable drives
[02:15] <kitche> at least mine did by default Pelo
[02:16] <jrib> kitche, Pelo: hmm abiword here iirc
[02:16] <kitche> jrib, yeah I have openoffice and abiword and mousepad installed by default
[02:16] <Dumptruck> but the drive I am partitioning is not removable
[02:16] <danielig> Installed: 2.17.20070103cvs-0ubuntu2 jrib
[02:16] <Pelo> kitche, k,  cause the xubuntu.com screenshots show gnome-office,  and I was wondering for my aunts computer
[02:16] <jrib> kitche: ah ok, must have missed OOo writer then
[02:17] <drhumanist> warbler: yes and what next now? :)
[02:17] <Pelo> jrib, you have OOo wirter ?
[02:17] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: oh yeah.
[02:17] <Dumptruck> i've been scratching my head for about a week with this
[02:17] <steel_lady> Frogzoo, it does not see it!
[02:17] <warbler> drhumanist: how many boxes checked green?
[02:17] <jrib> Pelo: I've since installed ubuntu-desktop but I don't remember it being installed
[02:17] <raf256> how good is support for intells 950 video card?  does it have full, as-good-as-in-windoze support, also in the OPEN SOURCE driver?  same as i915 ?
[02:18] <Pelo> jrib, Kitar|st   default  email ?  evolution or thunderbird ?
[02:18] <kitche> Pelo, it's kinda easy to miss OOo word Processor in the Office menu I didn't really notice it until I looked at the menu closely
[02:18] <danielig> jrib, when I try to compile that helloworld.c from http://www.klaproos.net/helloworld.c I get the same erro, segfault
[02:18] <drhumanist> warbler: seven (7)
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck:  "Mount removable drives when hot-plugged" enabled - it needs to be disabled, I came in late but I'm guessing you're having a problem with gparted remounting drives when you unmount one?
[02:18] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: it's not your main drive is it? it's a secondary one?
[02:18] <Dumptruck> ben_underscore: is it possible to chmod the entire disc?
[02:18] <ben_underscore> IntuitiveNipple: it's not removable
[02:18] <warbler> drhumanist: min
[02:18] <Dumptruck> yes it is a secondary
[02:18] <jrib> danielig: erm, that's bad then
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> ben_underscore: It'll still do it - I've had that issue in the past, I always disable hotplug and removable and that solves it
[02:19] <danielig> I am in trouble, i told you... but I won't give up
[02:19] <steel_lady> #ffmpeg
[02:19] <jrib> danielig: you have anything in /usr/local?
[02:19] <Dumptruck> ok I'll give it a try
[02:19] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: well that is weird ... perhaps try what IntuitiveNipple said
[02:19] <danielig> jrib: you mean stuff like bin  etc  games  include  lib  man  sbin  share  src???
[02:19] <stimpie> danielig: make sure have you have libc6 and libc6-dev installed
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> It's caused when gparted 'rescans' the drives every time you make a change
[02:20] <bobot> saluut
[02:20] <jrib> danielig: yes, what's in /usr/local/bin?
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> It'll report the drive unmounted, but in the background gnome-vfs automounts the darned things :)
[02:20] <Dumptruck> holy crap
[02:20] <Dumptruck> it worked
[02:20] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: try it out, then unmount the drives and see if gparted lets you resize
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> happy now?
[02:20] <waldo> need a little help, i removed all my ide drives and was about to install a new kubuntu feisty ... however, the setup goes fine, after that, i reboot , at grub loading; it says error 15: file not found. i tried feisty ubuntu and kubuntu
[02:20] <Dumptruck> i would have never looked there
[02:21] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: well there you go ... i did the same once too but with a usb drive
[02:21] <waldo> .. removed my ide drives replaced them by sata drives
[02:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: It took me a few hours when I originally had it happen to me to work out what was going on :)
[02:21] <danielig> libc6:
[02:21] <danielig>   Installed: 2.5-0ubuntu14
[02:21] <warbler> drhumanist: are you running 64 bit comp?
[02:21] <drhumanist> warbler: nope 32 bit
[02:21] <Dumptruck> Will that fix the permission issues as well?
[02:21] <warbler> k
[02:21] <Pelo> waldo,  you unplugged your other hdds before installing ubuntu ?   just set the bios to boot from the ubuntu hdd
[02:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: I didnt' see anything else mentioned - I just came in
[02:22] <Frogzoo> steel_lady: you can use fdisk to partition it if you can figure out which device it is
[02:22] <danielig> jrib, nothing there...
[02:22] <Dumptruck> oh I am also unable to write to the drive
[02:22] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: probably not
[02:22] <jrib> stimpie: danielig segfaults on the c helloworld you linked too
[02:22] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: "drive" or "partition" - what kind of file-system is on it?
[02:22] <danielig> I mean nothing in /usr/local/bin
[02:22] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: you'd need to use sudo to copy files
[02:22] <stimpie> danielig: same for libc6-dev ?
[02:22] <Dumptruck> ext3
[02:23] <danielig> stimpie, same version for libc6-dev
[02:23] <Dumptruck> ah
[02:23] <Pelo> waldo,  it's actualy a good idea to have all your hdds plugged in when you install,  that way grub recognises them and also , before installing make sre that the hdd you install to is the boot hdd in the biios, that way alll the pcs of grub are on the same hdd
[02:23] <warbler> drhumanist: do you have "nvidia x-config" & "nvidia settings" selected?
[02:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Dumptruck: with ext3 the permissions are controlled by the file attributes, so you may need to have root access (as ben_underscore says, use sudo)
[02:23] <danielig> I wonder why this gcc tells me that it cannot write executeables?
[02:23] <Dumptruck> ok the resizing is completed
[02:24] <Dumptruck> ah ha
[02:24] <drhumanist> warbler: NO... neither of em
[02:24] <drhumanist> warble: shall i now?
[02:24] <danielig> help!
[02:24] <Dumptruck> can I reformat to make it essentially a dump drive?
[02:24] <Pelo> danielig, sudo ...
[02:24] <lieter> hi all, one of our customers brought us a ubuntu machine which he believes is root-kitted. However chkrootkit and rkhunter dont show anything strange. even in init 1. The rootpass was still correct so we believe the customer accidentally press CTRL+C. but how can i use apt to verify program(ls, netstat,,,) signatures?
[02:24] <danielig> sudo what?
[02:25] <danielig> sudo ./configure?
[02:25] <danielig> tried that
[02:25] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: What does the config.log report in the directory where you're trying to run it?
[02:25] <drhumanist> warbler: shall i select them now?
[02:25] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: yep, that's what i have mine as - 250 gb of dump
[02:25] <warbler> drhumanist: install them reboot & look for them in the index - applications
[02:25] <drhumanist> warbler: ok
[02:25] <steel_lady> Frozgoo, how do I do that? look that thole system does not recognize, win neither. I went before to one shop in another town and they told me they can not read it but it can be formatted
[02:26] <Dumptruck> ie could I use a different file system like fat32
[02:26] <cafuego> !info debsums
[02:26] <ubotu> debsums: Verify installed package files against MD5 checksums.. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.30 (feisty), package size 29 kB, installed size 168 kB
[02:26] <Pelo> lieter,  what makes the customer think he has a rootkit ?
[02:26] <cafuego> lieter: ^^
[02:26] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: And which version of GCC is it ("gcc --version") ?
[02:26] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple, that is the file I posted on http://pastebin.ca/670159, the only change is, that I have since upgraded the kernel to the lates version...
[02:26] <lieter> Pelo, cafuego, he was 'kicked' from his console
[02:26] <Pelo> !info debsums > lieter  check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu
[02:27] <danielig> gcc (GCC) 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)
[02:27] <stimpie> danielig: I assume you updated kernel headers also?
[02:27] <danielig> sure
[02:27] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Latest kernel version? which one specifically? Is this Feisty?
[02:27] <lieter> Pelo, server is 6.06
[02:27] <danielig> it is all now: 2.6.20-16-generic
[02:27] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: the problem with fat32 is it does not support files > 2 gb
[02:27] <danielig> headers, kernel image and all the rest...
[02:27] <Dumptruck> I know
[02:28] <Pelo> lieter,  try that debsums thing that cafuego recomended , I 'm clueless
[02:28] <Dumptruck> hmm
[02:28] <danielig> feisty, course
[02:28] <lieter> ok
[02:28] <Dumptruck> is there another file system
[02:28] <Dumptruck> that doesn't need permissions?
[02:28] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: do you want to do windows and linux?
[02:28] <cafuego> lieter: Not a very smart rootkit that logs users out ;-)
[02:28] <lieter> but does that verify the debs. or the progs itself?
[02:28] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:28] <lieter> cafuego, thats why we think it isnt rootkitted
[02:28] <Dumptruck> but windows will run under vmware
[02:28] <Pelo> lieter,  the ppl in ##linux might also be able to help,  pretty hardcore channel
[02:29] <Dumptruck> so the filesystem for windows is not important
[02:29] <cafuego> lieter: Can you just give the machine back and say "there was no rootkit, we checked" ?
[02:29] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: it's a problem - there is an ext3 driver for windows which i've tried but is a bit flakey
[02:29] <lieter> Pelo, too bad i'm not hard core ;)
[02:29] <lieter> cafuego, it hosts 80 websites
[02:29] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: what project are you trying to build?
[02:29] <lieter> cafuego, and 2 very important ones
[02:29] <cafuego> lieter: Did you check the kernel log for oom-killer?
[02:30] <Dumptruck> I don't think that would be an issue
[02:30] <ben_underscore> BRB - talking to wife
[02:30] <Pelo> lieter, I just mean they might just be more informed about this stuff then we are, this is pretty much an installation problem channel,  the ppl in ##linux can compile everything from source
[02:30] <danielig> alsa-driver 1.0.14
[02:30] <Dumptruck> as they will be vmx files accessed by linux
[02:30] <Dumptruck> so it can be any file system supported by linux
[02:30] <beavis> hello
[02:30] <danielig> I want sound on my bloody laptop working!!!
[02:30] <cafuego> Pelo: Oi, so can I. Just coz I'm too lazy doesn't mean I don't think anything ;-)
[02:30] <Dumptruck> hello
[02:31] <warbler> !hello
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hello - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <cromo> danielig: sorry, I had to leave for a sec
[02:31] <cafuego> lieter: Give debsums a go. *if* there isa  rootkit *and* it's dumb enough to log users out, it probably won't have patched md5.
[02:31] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Try this: "CC=gcc ./configure"
[02:31] <danielig> so what did you find cromo?
[02:31] <cromo> danielig: what is happening? nothing really, I just wanted to compile that module and get that error
[02:32] <cromo> I wasn't searching a lot yet, wanted to make sure it's feisty's fault and not the software
[02:32] <cromo> *not the software compiled
[02:32] <Dumptruck> maybe I am unclear - sorry - so windows proper will never have access to the filesystem
[02:32] <Dumptruck> only vmware will
[02:32] <Dumptruck> so any filesystem will do that is recognized by ubuntu
[02:32] <beavis> windows doesn't read ext3
[02:32] <beavis> not without dodgy driver
[02:33] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple, this didn't work either, I guess that the CC is correctly registered but fails.
[02:33] <cafuego> beavis: for variying values of "doesn't".
[02:33] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  you only use  ext3 then,   vmware is a virtual machine , it will run on anything and will create it,s own virtual hdds to run windows on
[02:33] <Dumptruck> yup
[02:33] <jrib> IntuitiveNipple: his gcc segfaults on helloworld
[02:34] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  but you won't be able to move anything between VM window and Ubuntu
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: create a new test directory, create a file 'test'c', put in it "#include <stdio.h>
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple>     int main(void) { printf("Hello, World!\n"); return 0; } " then in that directory see what "gcc -v test.c" reports
[02:34] <Dumptruck> but running an expanding and changing file will always require permission
[02:34] <beavis> use samba to transfer files between vm'd windows and ubuntu
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> jrib: Ahh, so, a libc issue most likely...Is there a pastebin URL of the errors?
[02:34] <Dumptruck> can I change the permissions permanently?
[02:34] <jessie_> hey all.
[02:35] <beavis> permissions for wot?
[02:35] <Pelo> DumberDrummer,  vmware will have permission you don'T need to deal with that
[02:35] <jrib> IntuitiveNipple: I didn't see one
[02:35] <Pelo> Dumptruck, vmware will have permission you don'T need to deal with that
[02:35] <cromo> danielig: are you using any backports or sth?
[02:35] <Dumptruck> ah ha
[02:35] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Can you pastebin the results of that "gcc -v test.c" if there are errors?
[02:35] <kitche> cafuego, that's always fun :{
[02:35] <cafuego> sorrycan'tspeakneedmycpucyclesnow
[02:36] <Dumptruck> but when I try to create a virtual machine it says I do not have permissions
[02:36] <Pelo> Dumptruck,  how are you creating yoru vm ?
[02:36] <Dumptruck> do I need to run vm ware with the gksudo command?
[02:37] <beavis> where you try to create vm machine, on seperate partition?
[02:37] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple: http://pastebin.ca/673449
[02:37] <Dumptruck> yes
[02:37] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: do you have the matching kernel-headers and glibc-devel packages installed?
[02:37] <Dumptruck> and seperate drive
[02:37] <beavis> you may need to chown the directory or partition u are using
[02:37] <ben_underscore> Dumptruck: I have to go -- good luck with it all.
[02:37] <Dumptruck> thanks ben
[02:37] <ben_underscore> anytime
[02:37] <Dumptruck> I appreciate your help
[02:38] <Dumptruck> what is chown?
[02:38] <tmjb> i got problem with feisty isolinux fancy splash menu which block when i try to install on old computer with tnt vanta 16 mb card any ideas how to get text menu ?
[02:38] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: CHange OWNer
[02:38] <jessie_> Dumptruck, chown is a command that changes the owner
[02:38] <Dumptruck> is it similar to chmod?
[02:38] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple, can you help me how to find that out?
[02:38] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: one might say that.
[02:38] <Black_Cat> but it changes the owner itself not his access rights
[02:38] <jessie_> Dumptruck, yes, just that you change who the owner is rather than who can access it.
[02:39] <Dumptruck> wouldn't it be better to just give everyone access?
[02:39] <Dumptruck> users not other of course
[02:39] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: completely insecure approach.
[02:39] <beavis> try 'sudo chown "your username" "path to v machine"
[02:39] <danielig> Dumptruck you can use it with owner and group: chown -r user:group file
[02:39] <Dumptruck> I am an insecure guy what can I say
[02:40] <Black_Cat> Dumptruck: of course you can have 777 and owner doesn't matter
[02:40] <Dumptruck> ok
[02:40] <Frogzoo> 777 aiieeee!!!
[02:40] <danielig> don't do it Dumptruck
[02:40] <danielig> !
[02:40] <gvsa123> Dumptruck: that's also one of the things that make linux secure
[02:40] <Dumptruck> so I type chmod 777 in console?
[02:40] <danielig> no
[02:40] <danielig> never,
[02:40] <drhumanist> warbler:
[02:40] <danielig> (almost never)
[02:40] <Dumptruck> ok
[02:40] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: "dpkg-query -l 'glibc*' " and "dpkg-query -l 'linux-headers*' "
[02:40] <warbler> drhumanist:k
[02:41] <drhumanist> warbler: i did.... Ubuntu crashed!! now on Vista :(
[02:41] <drhumanist> warbler: you want to see the error messages?
[02:41] <gvsa123> anyone know why i lost the shutdown usplash after upgrading to fiesty?
[02:41] <warbler> drhumanist: "I did" ... means what exactly?
[02:42] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, what does it do now?
[02:42] <bobbob1016> How can I download sequential files with wget, as in file01, file02, file03, and so on?
[02:42] <Dumptruck> so what commands do I need to use to give all users read write and execute permission?
[02:42] <drhumanist> warbler: i loaded the two packages you asked via the Synaptics manager... and i rebooted
[02:42] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Here's what the gcc -v test.c output *should* look like, so you know what to expect: http://pastebin.intuitivenipple.net/66
[02:42] <warbler> drhumanist: then...
[02:42] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: well it shutsdown well but i lost the ubuntu logo with the progress bar...
[02:43] <drhumanist> warbler: error messages: Failed to load module "nvidia"
[02:43] <Alloosh> hi guys, Iam trying to paste mysql file in the terminal and its not pasting the file as it should, I think this is a bug
[02:43] <jessie_> bobbob1016, well, try something like "wget http:\\placetofilesfile0?.nameofextension"
[02:43] <Paddy_EIRE> bobbob1016, not sure it does them sequentially or altogether
[02:43] <saylar> hey guys. i need a favor. could someone please give me the ip address of reddit?
[02:43] <drhumanist> module doesn't exist
[02:43] <Dumptruck> and is there a graphic means of setting permissions I know I need to get used to the command line but it still kinda scares me
[02:43] <saylar> seems they're having some DNS problems
[02:43] <drhumanist> warbler: No drivers availabke
[02:43] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: the unusual line there goes something like: "inappropriate *something* init..."
[02:44] <jessie_> Dumptruck, if you run nautilus as root via "sudo nautilus" from a command line you can right click stuff to change owners and permissions.
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> gvsa123, I would check the forums for this problem.. chances are this has been resolved
[02:44] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple: this is whta I get for the glibc and kernel headers: http://pastebin.ca/673451
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> :0
[02:44] <bobbob1016> jessie_, I tried ? and * for the wildcard, and no luck, it's only 8 files, I'll do them one at a time
[02:44] <Paddy_EIRE> oops
[02:44] <Bucketface> Um, I accidently copied an unwritable folder to my  'Musics' folder, I can't delete it. I have tried sudo chown charles /home/charles/Musics/Buckethead
[02:44] <drhumanist> warbler: x server could not initialize during booting!
[02:44] <warbler> drhumanist: is that all - reboot in rescue and type at prompt sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg - remember we changed the driver
[02:44] <jessie_> bobbob1016, oh... good to know.
[02:44] <Dumptruck> your guys are geniuses - thanks for all of your help!
[02:44] <gvsa123> Paddy_EIRE: it wasn't last time i checked, i'll take a look now. not that this is a major thing for me though... :)
[02:45] <jessie_> Bucketface, try "sudo chown -R charles"
[02:45] <WindowsHater> hi guys!
[02:45] <drhumanist> ok warbler - trying now
[02:45] <drhumanist> see you
[02:45] <warbler> k
[02:45] <danielig> It looks to me like there is no glibc installed am I a complete fool?
[02:45] <Paddy_EIRE> Dumptruck, truck use gksudo nautilus
[02:45] <Bucketface> What? -R does whatnow D:?
[02:45] <jessie_> Bucketface, or what not. the -R makes it recursive and does it to all of the files and folders in that directory.
[02:45] <danielig> IntuitiveNipple???
[02:45] <Bucketface> okay.
[02:45] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Well, that shows you have the correct headers "inux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic"
[02:45] <Dumptruck> thanks paddy I thought as much
[02:45] <GNine> the big r is the right way
[02:46] <Paddy_EIRE> Dumptruck, no probs :)
[02:46] <GNine> issue: inoperable screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles specially the openGL type.  any fixes?
[02:46] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: My mistake; try "dpkg-query -l 'libc-*' " :p
[02:46] <danielig> I also have linux-headers 2.6.20-16
[02:47] <jessie_> see you people. i have to go to school now.
[02:47] <Bucketface> JEssie, that didn't work D;
[02:47] <GNine> leave that cellphone
[02:47] <Bucketface> Also, byebye jessie
[02:47] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: Yes, but according to the config.log it is working with kernel "uname -r = 2.6.20-15-generic" so it shoulf be matched up
[02:47] <danielig> I pasted my libc*s on your pastebin...
[02:47] <Alloosh> Hi guys, is there limit for the number of characters I can paste to the terminal?
[02:47] <jessie_> Bucketface, no, try to do "sudo nautilus" in the terminal and just right click the folder to change them.
[02:48] <GNine> you wanna write a book at the terminal?
[02:48] <GNine> :-P
[02:48] <Paddy_EIRE> Bucketface, gksudo nautilus
[02:48] <Alloosh> GNine: no, I want to create tables in mysql
[02:48] <Bucketface> That worked~!
[02:48] <danielig> Intuitive Nipple: I have pasted the config.log two days ago, now have upgraded to the new kernel and also the config.log, when I try has the new kernel instead the old one...
[02:49] <Bucketface> IT changed it to the root user then I had access to it all amirite :D?
[02:49] <danielig> was lazy to paste again, since the result was no different except the kernel version.
[02:49] <GNine> dont know anything about sql.. too windowy for me
[02:49] <GNine> i would suggest nano tho
[02:49] <m0u5e> im dpkg reconfiguring xorg.conf, anyone know how to find my "video card bus identifier" info?
[02:49] <Paddy_EIRE> jessie tells you the wrong command then leaves Bucketface , ensure you use 'gksudo' or 'gksu' when launching graphical apps from the terminal
[02:50] <ckin2001> @alloosh - try phpmyadmin for easy mysql administration
[02:50] <Paddy_EIRE> Bucketface, those you wish to run with root privileges that is
[02:50] <beavis> it makes no difference, gksudo is just a graphical front end for sudo
[02:50] <kdub> m0u5e: you try lspci?

[02:50] <Alloosh> ckin2001: I have it, but I like using the consol, do you know how can I access the consol?

[02:53] <IntuitiveNipple> danielig: ok, so it doesn't look to be the linker and standard libraries
[02:53] <danielig> good
[02:53] <ckin2001> you could put the commands in a script and have them be executed - not sure on the syntax,though

[02:54] <jkraid> hey guys, i have had a working s/w raid (md) setup on ubuntu feisty now for about 1 week, i rebooted my server and since my disks span across 2 different drivers/controllers, the new disk that i added whilst system was up, ended up jumping in first in the ordering i guess at device-mapper level (its still coming up as the fifth disk /dev/sde1). The problem is that now my mdadm doesnt see the raid set. any ideas? can i force order?
[02:54] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, totem is nice and all the progress bar doesn't actually do anything? all you can do is pause... O_o

[02:56] <GNine> computers in the same intranet should be able to communicate thru dhcp protocol by default

[02:57] <kdub> m0u5e: 0:2 would make sense, thats what my intel card is on my laptop at home, if i recall. your machine should be able to easily (and with less room for error) be able to identify the bus...
[02:57] <GNine> another possible way is to manual config of the router

[03:06] <ChickenChance> Ubuntu isn't seeing my network card
[03:06] <ChickenChance> can you guys give me a little help?
[03:06] <Dumptruck> I know I don't see it - sorry
[03:06] <GNine> i810 is intel
[03:07] <warbler> !wireless
[03:07] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:07] <m0u5e> GNine: there are currently two drivers in the main repos, i810 is the official supported, with debian merge at 2.7.xx something of the sort, and the intel drivers are at 2.9
[03:08] <GNine> then id assume 2.9 as an upgrade. so .. why not
[03:08] <kdub> m0u5e: it wouldn't hurt, but probably won't add any functionality you don't already have. I have to use the intel drivers, (with a 2.6.22 kernel) because I have a GMA965.
[03:08] <Dumptruck> danielig: yeah I've looked through three time now and I don't see it
[03:08] <KevinOman> gnine I cannot ping anything but my router
[03:08] <m0u5e> kdub: any performance increase / stability issues you know about? :D
[03:09] <GNine> whats the known status of your networked puters? they up?
[03:09] <KevinOman> gnine it seems I can't even ping my router right now
[03:09] <Dumptruck> oh turd
[03:09] <kdub> m0u5e: I had difficulties with agpgart (the name for the allocated shared video ram) with the intel drivers and a 2.6.18 kernel, but other than that, not really
[03:09] <Dumptruck> sorry I figured it out
[03:10] <GNine> btw.. if you can ping your router.. thats a good sign .. ur closer to a solution
[03:10] <KevinOman> I can't connect to it from a browser either thru ubuntu
[03:10] <danielig> Dumptruck. you still have not pasted your permissions  from ls -al... first check where your disk is mounted (e.g. /mnt/hda6) then cd /mnt and do ls -al
[03:10] <KevinOman> gnine I have only been able to connect to my router in windows
[03:10] <Dumptruck> no it was my screwup
[03:10] <Dumptruck> I changed permissions on the wrong disk
[03:10] <GNine> oh well. ..  You may need to install drivers, or use ndiswrapper(if its wireless)

[03:19] <andrei_amator> hello ppl
[03:19] <WindowsHater> hi

[03:22] <drhumanist> warbler: we are really close this time
[03:22] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, I think so. it opens up an mplayer window, so then I have access to all the mplayer cool stuff

[03:23] <floresc7> how about clonezilla?
[03:23] <Cin> Paddy_EIRE, I'm using that firefox add-on
[03:23] <drhumanist> warbler: some minor setting in Xserver i suspect...
[03:23] <kdub> Trae, the nice thing about linux is, if you know where to look, you can change everything you want ;-)
[03:23] <Paddy_EIRE> NET||abuse, yeah.. be sure to remove any and all flash stuffs you have done so far including gnash if applicable :D
[03:23] <NET||abuse> yup, done that just now
[03:23] <genii> Anon: Also as i understand, the developer of Kanotix, Jrg Schirottke wrote much of the hardware detection engine.
[03:23] <NET||abuse> i love--purge
[03:23] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah :D
[03:23] <Trae> kdub, heh, tha'ts a big iff
[03:23] <PureEvilGeek> whats the difficulty level of joining a ubuntu desktop to an AD domain? and are there any features that will be missing?
[03:23] <Trae> kdub, that's like saying, if you know differential equations, you can do them.
[03:23] <warbler> drhumanist: I'm not there so can only suggest -yes it seems a minor setting but don't know how you got there
[03:24] <kdub> paddu, check out Ubuntu Mobile http://www.ubuntu.com/news/ubuntu-for-mobile-internet-devices
[03:24] <NET||abuse> Paddy_EIRE, had a huge firefight with my desktop a while back though with nvidia drivers.. lots of things were left behind on 32bit libs for nvidia-glx, and the beta i installed a year ago..
[03:24] <paddu> thanks kdub
[03:24] <drhumanist> warbler: xserver asked many questions.... i think i replied them well....
[03:24] <tatters> anyone familer with tv card n webcams tell me if they know whats going on here ?      http://pastebin.com/m763fbec0
[03:25] <tatters> http://pastebin.com/m763fbec0
[03:25] <NET||abuse> Paddy_EIRE, nightmare,, --purge couldn't manage everythign for me :( anyway.. right,, back in a bit once i've gone through all of this.. also.. adobe fore linux.. must follow that link also :)
[03:25] <GNine> ok.. so nobody runs openGL screensavers here or what
[03:25] <kdub> Trae, but at least linux gives you the equations to work out. Some OSes (...) dont....
[03:25] <drhumanist> warbler: if we cannot solve this i will have to reinstall everything or maybe try another distro :(
[03:25] <medfly> GNine, i didnt see people using screensavers in years.
[03:25] <floresc7> How about using SATA hard drives on Ubuntu?
[03:25] <warbler> drhumanist: the trick is to get to a situation where x can ask again
[03:25] <drhumanist> warbler: oh and you will give commands to me?
[03:25] <Paddy_EIRE> NET||abuse, nasty.... linux supports hardware acceleration on my desktop with 1280x1024 windows cant do hardware accel with the card and I have tried so many drivers..
[03:26] <GNine> ok.. how about openGL
[03:26] <kdub> floresc7: the quickest trick with SATA drives is sometimes to put them in compatibility mode in the BIOS
[03:26] <Paddy_EIRE> grrr
[03:26] <drhumanist> warbler: i can arrange that if you want!
[03:26] <brad_> praet: My ethernet controller showed up as a Reltek Semiconductor Co. Ltd RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 1)
[03:26] <warbler> drhumanist: will be here!
[03:26] <drhumanist> ok than i will go and get another computer ! just wait :)
[03:26] <drhumanist> see you
[03:26] <floresc7> kdub: I only have 2 options in BIOS, tried both.  One is normal, the other is RAID
[03:26] <warbler> k
[03:26] <cosmodad> does network manager not support WPA yet?
[03:26] <tatters> I use my TV as monitor in living room and like screensaver playin if not using
[03:27] <GNine> am amazed how you guys seem to know everything but a fundamental graphics development tool like OpenGL , disappointing
[03:27] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, why would we want to know that
[03:27] <slavik> GNine: what exactly should we know about opengl
[03:27] <kdub> GNine: who's to say theres no OpenGL gurus around?
[03:27] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, we all run using terminal sessions here :P
[03:28] <GNine> is it not part of the system.. or am i imagining this?
[03:28] <medfly> pfft, youre just upset because you cant waste MORE electricity by having a screensaver
[03:28] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, hes trying to gode someone into soving his prob :P
[03:28] <brad_> praet: Sorry a Realtek ""
[03:28] <medfly> no, opengl isnt part of any operation system.. wtf
[03:28] <GNine> ha!
[03:28] <GNine> Paddy_EIRE,  is catching up some
[03:28] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[03:29] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, get a decent gfx card
[03:29] <GNine> however.. am a graphics oriented entity.. i like flashy things
[03:29] <KevinOman> anyone know why o can't connect to my router with ubuntu, but YOU can with windows, I have dd-wrt installed on router
[03:29] <GNine> i already have a nice one of those
[03:30] <praet> tatters: try commenting out the "v4l" module
[03:30] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, what is it
[03:30] <mindshift> CHAOS
[03:30] <GNine> nvidia type.. my issue is not hardware based tho
[03:30] <tatters> praet give it a shot thnx for looking
[03:30] <floresc7> any other ideas for mounting a SATA HD?
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, sounds like it is... you dont even know what your card is so how do you know its not a driver problem
[03:31] <GNine> i know what it is .. and i know what is not my problem ..
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, or insufficent video ram..
[03:31] <steel_lady> is there some problem in ubuntu handling SD cards?
[03:31] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, fancy letting us in on the secret
[03:31] <hacked_kernel> I got a server that has only one user "root", but root can't open log files in /var/log/*  even I can't use stat to read file status, it say permission denied
[03:32] <warbler> steel_lady: hows the little movies going?
[03:32] <hacked_kernel> any help
[03:32] <tatters> praet: comment them out where in xorg?
[03:32] <brad_> praet: Could u give me a hand finding a driver for my card?
[03:32] <genii> hacked_kernel: When you set the box up, you chose "root" as the first username to create?
[03:33] <GNine> i identified the issue already ...  if there are no known fixes in this room... its all good
[03:33] <steel_lady> warbler, I encoded it as they told me but it does not work. then I dl the win program, encoded to see what is the difference and is it working and now ubuntu doesn't want to write the file on neither of my SD cards
[03:33] <hacked_kernel> genii, Yes
[03:33] <floresc7> Anyone know anything about SATA hds?
[03:33] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, you have not identified anything to me... except that you gfx card is "nvidia type" ..?
[03:34] <GNine> besides.. you admitted you dont know anything about openGL. you wouldnt be much help anyway
[03:34] <GNine> thanks for the interest tho
[03:34] <praet> brad_: looking. should use the r8169 driver  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=806796
[03:34] <warbler> steel_lady: It's an issue - but check for drivers for your cards - like win , linux needs drivers
[03:35] <genii> hacked_kernel: When you are trying to edit thing, you are using sudo?
[03:35] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, could you stop wasting line after line on trolling or do you actually have an issue you need help with..?  Previously I had been sarcastic because of your attitude to the room
[03:35] <hacked_kernel> genii, sure
[03:35] <Paddy_EIRE> !Patience | GNine

[03:35] <boomh4u3r> How do I update my gfx card driver?
[03:35] <GNine> you are the one exhibiting an attidute
[03:36] <steel_lady> warlber, it was working fine before. now I put the card mount, write, unmount and when I put it again -no file!
[03:36] <praet> brad_: realtek makes a unix driver, that may help: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
[03:36] <UbuntuGuy> Hi all, quick question: How can I see which package(s) depend(s) on a given package
[03:36] <boomh4u3r> I have an ATI x1600
[03:36] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, you know what man.. I dont even want to help you anymore.. good luck with BOTH your problems :)
[03:37] <GNine> issue: inoperable openGL screensavers.  all packages and drivers installed. no visuals on most titles including the openGL type.  any known fixes?
[03:37] <brad_> praet: Thanks, I am going to check that all out. Thanks.
[03:37] <GNine> Paddy_EIRE, your welcome
[03:37] <genii> hacked_kernel: You are able to use sudo then if you put your password that you set the user "root" up with?
[03:37] <warbler> steel_lady: apart from suggesting drivers I don't know - repost prob - someone here now maybe has experience?
[03:38] <hacked_kernel> genii, it didn't ask for password

[03:38] <floresc7> Help anyone?  I am trying to make cloned images of a HD using clonezilla on DRBL.  The problem is all the computers recieving the images have SATA hds.  Ubuntu is not recognizing these HDs.  I have tried both modes in BIOS, Normal and RAID.  Anyone have any ideas?
[03:38] <praet> brad_: check card driver info like this: lshw -C network
[03:38] <alags> hi, i'm trying to set up a vnc  here. When i check the vnc, no window manager is loaded, though i have mentioned gnome-session in my xstartup.
[03:38] <alags> can someone help?
[03:38] <praet> tatters: should comment that out in your modules.conf i think. let me check
[03:38] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, .. do you have a screenshot of any of this
[03:39] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, synaptic lists dependend packages under properties. But I don't know if this only refers to installed packages or all the packages in the repository.
[03:39] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, I am prettly familiar with opengl
[03:39] <steel_lady> warbler, I don't have other expnanation than it is moody. I do same as always but is just ignores me
[03:39] <GNine> the screenshot would be a blank screen.. there are NO visuals.
[03:39] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, in a terminal type 'glxgears'
[03:39] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: which video driver version are you using?
[03:39] <genii> hacked_kernel: The prudent thing to do would be to rename that user from root (because that is a reserved system name) to something else.
[03:39] <warbler> steel_lady: you said you downloaded win version?
[03:40] <GNine> glx
[03:40] <alags> hi, i'm trying to set up a vnc  here. When i check the vnc, no window manager is loaded, though i have mentioned gnome-session in my xstartup.
[03:41] <warbler> steel_lady: 0's & 1's don't have temper tantrums :) hehe
[03:41] <GNine> i got all kinds of glx , the rss package , the mesa glx ..
[03:41] <predaeus> GNine, does glxgears show anything?
[03:41] <GNine> everything needed for openGL to work .. except no dough
[03:41] <UbuntuGuy> predaeus: yep, but Actually I need the reverse. I have a package "foobar" installed and I want to see what depends on it.
[03:41] <steel_lady> warbler, I dl the program that encoded the movie differently. it plays fine on ubuntu, now i want to check if it plays on my pocket and if it does, I would try to copy the file parameters to try to do it with ffmpeg
[03:41] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: If you want help, you need to tell us the *exact* driver version, and the *exact* chipset on the problem system
[03:41] <genii> hacked_kernel: eg:    sudo vipw                      then go to where it has name root with something like 1000:1000     and change root to another name
[03:41] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, you can see that in synaptic.
[03:41] <GNine> testing glxgear now
[03:41] <brad_> praet: what was i looking for?
[03:41] <warbler> k
[03:42] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, just change the option under "Properties".
[03:42] <floresc7> Does anyone boot using a SATA hard drive?
[03:42] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, pastebin the output after a little while
[03:42] <warbler> steel_lady: k
[03:42] <boomh4u3r> I have an ATI x1600..How do i get the driver to install? thx
[03:42] <per> can somone please help me install thunderbird-<IP_ADDRESS>.tar.gz and what to do after the files are extracted
[03:42] <genii> hacked_kernel: normally would want to use usermod but because now 2 names of root don't want to rename the real root account
[03:42] <warbler> !ati
[03:42] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:42] <boomh4u3r> ty
[03:42] <recon> Does anybody know if the ubuntu version of netcat was compiled with GAPING_SECURITY_HOLE?
[03:42] <warbler> drhumanist: ?
[03:43] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, synaptic/click on pacakge/properties/dependencies-tab/set-dependend packages
[03:43] <genii> hacked_kernel: You can exit vipw with :wq
[03:43] <genii> hacked_kernel: If you mess up the edit use :q! to exit without modifying file
[03:43] <floresc7> help please!
[03:43] <genii> work, AFK
[03:44] <recon> !ask | floresc7
[03:44] <ubotu> floresc7: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:44] <UbuntuGuy> predaeus: Yes, I see, but that seems to list all packages, not just those installed (which is what I need)
[03:44] <predaeus> floresc7, I boot using SATA.
[03:44] <warbler> !ask
[03:44] <floresc7> thanks!
[03:44] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, ah ok.
[03:44] <drhumanist> warbler:
[03:44] <steel_lady> warbler, looks like ubuntu has problem handling card reader. whan I put it to USB reader it saves the file but it throws a bunch of strange garbage on it
[03:44] <drhumanist> i am switching to the other computer
[03:44] <warbler> drhumanist: k
[03:45] <drhumanist> see you in a minute
[03:45] <floresc7> predaeus: did you have any issues setting it up the first time?
[03:45] <UbuntuGuy> predaeus: I found another way.  I did an apt-get -s remove foobar and it listed the immediate direct dependencies.  I'll have to recurse to get them all, but it should work
[03:45] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, scan the "man apt-get" or "man dpgk" to look for info, I guess synaptic just uses the underlying tools, maybe there is an option to exlude not installed packages on that output.
[03:45] <praet> tatters: should comment that out in your /etc/modules file
[03:45] <warbler> steel_lady: try to find the right driver - it will work :)
[03:45] <GNine> got a double buffered visual.  xlib is not registering GLX  on display 0.0
[03:46] <jkraid> Hi guys, i'm having some troubles with ubuntu feisty 7.04 + mdadm/device-mapper. Details are at: http://pastebin.com/mfe92816. basically after a reboot, disks of one controller (part of same raid set) misbehave - need to force order
[03:46] <GNine> now i got some reading to do
[03:46] <tatters> praet: thnx
[03:46] <drhumanist2> hi warbler
[03:46] <predaeus> floresc7, nah. Just grub messing up harddrive identities.
[03:46] <praet> brad_: looking for the card driver
[03:46] <drhumanist2> i am booting Ubuntu in recovery mode please wait
[03:46] <warbler> steel_lady: aaah - a thought - how new is the card?
[03:46] <hacked_kernel> genii, I found root has 0:0 not 1000:1000
[03:46] <predaeus> UbuntuGuy, ah ok, nice.
[03:46] <steel_lady> warbler, how do I do that? and what can I do to format the other card that is not recognized by the system not even in gparted?
[03:47] <warbler> how many drhumanists are there? hehe
[03:47] <genii> hacked_kernel: There should be 2 users of "root" if you created your first user also with that name
[03:47] <steel_lady> warbler, it is not SDHC
[03:47] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: what does "glxinfo | grep OpenGL" report?
[03:47] <drhumanist2> this is me again ;)
[03:47] <Gyuszk> Hi guys, can you help? I've got 2 laptops, I swapped the optical units between them, but the laptops bios cant see the new drive
[03:47] <hacked_kernel> genii, I changed 0:0 to 1000:1000 and now I can't access sudo vipw
[03:48] <floresc7> predaeus: I don't know if it really matters, but I have Fiesty running perfectly on one computer (that has PATA), but I am trying to DRBL boot on another that has SATA (which I am trying to mount) but it is not mounting
[03:48] <drhumanist2> warbler: i started the xserver application... now listening to your commands :)
[03:48] <genii> hacked_kernel: There should be 2 users with name root if you created one with that name as default
[03:48] <HelloMeow> Hello, I would like help installing a printer. I have never done so on a linux OS
[03:48] <ccooke> HelloMeow: What printer is it?
[03:48] <HelloMeow> It is a USB printer
[03:48] <ccooke> okay.
[03:48] <drhumanist2> warbler u there?
[03:48] <HelloMeow> A Canon PIXMA ip 2200
[03:48] <ccooke> try plugging it in?
[03:49] <HelloMeow> Yes, it is
[03:49] <warbler> steel_lady: my experience is limited here - apart from the forums, google , or reposting your prob I can't offer more suggestions - apologies
[03:49] <GNine> IntuitiveNipple, extension glx missing on display 0.0   -  couldnt find RGB visual
[03:49] <drhumanist2> warbler? :)
[03:50] <Paddy_EIRE> GNine, that sounds so familiar
[03:50] <warbler> drhumanist2: you look like drhumanist
[03:50] <predaeus> floresc7, hm, sorry I am not experienced with DRBL, what does it report as an error?
[03:50] <drhumanist2> yes i am dr.humanist!!!
[03:50] <ccooke> HelloMeow: Okay. You're using Ubuntu Feisty (7.04), yes?
[03:50] <warbler> hehe :)
[03:50] <drhumanist2> just the machine didnt let me take that nick this time :)
[03:50] <genii> hacked_kernel: Due to your inability to follow instructions you may now have locked yourself entirely from your system
[03:50] <predaeus> GNine, have you enabled the nvidia driver in your xorg.conf?
[03:50] <warbler> k
[03:50] <GNine> yes
[03:50] <HelloMeow> ccooke: No, xubuntu.
[03:50] <drhumanist2> so i am waiting with xserver open.....
[03:50] <GNine> using gnome right now
[03:51] <ccooke> HelloMeow: I'm afraid I don't run that, so I may not be able to help you
[03:51] <brad_> praet: my driver version is r8169
[03:51] <ycmarvin> is there am open source software that works like Visual Basic
[03:51] <warbler> drhumanist2: where which are you at?
[03:51] <tatters> praet: if this right file I have no v4 module   http://pastebin.com/m7200a694
[03:51] <ccooke> HelloMeow: I don't know what the printer configuration tool for xfce is, unfortunately
[03:51] <hacked_kernel> genii, i can open /etc/passwd but i can't write to it, there is only on root in the file
[03:51] <predaeus> GNine, do you have a 'Load "glx"' in your xorg.conf?
[03:51] <drhumanist2> i am at the very first window: asking X server driver to choose: there is only nv option i guess?
[03:52] <drhumanist2> lets do it step by step this time....
[03:52] <IntuitiveNipple> GNine: what is reported from " grep -i 'glx' /var/log/Xorg.0.log "
[03:52] <predaeus> HelloMeow, join #xubuntu or #xfce too
[03:52] <genii> hacked_kernel: You just changed the root user's user id and group id
[03:52] <super-6-1> quick question how do i mount a iso?
[03:52] <warbler> drhumanist2: look for nvidia - that is why the last time had probs - yes
[03:53] <drhumanist2> there is NO NVIDIA!!
[03:53] <predaeus> super-6-1, something like "mount -o loop my.iso" I think, might need to add another option.
[03:53] <hacked_kernel> genii, do you have any ideas?
[03:53] <super-6-1> ok
[03:53] <ccooke> HelloMeow: Two links that should help you
[03:53] <ccooke> HelloMeow:
[03:53] <predaeus> super-6-1, something like "mount -o loop my.iso /my/mount/point" I think, might need to add another option.
[03:53] <ccooke> HelloMeow: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrintersCanon
[03:53] <HelloMeow> Thanks ccooke!
[03:53] <super-6-1> is it sudo mount -o loop -t (name).iso
[03:53] <genii> hacked_kernel: Unfortunately even booting now to recovery kernel will not be useful.
[03:54] <cosmodad> super-6-1: add the filesystem too, most likely -t iso9660
[03:54] <ccooke> HelloMeow: ... damn. One of the pages has been removed
[03:54] <steel_lady> warbler, I already have a book of unsolved ubuntu problems
[03:54] <warbler> drhumanist2: get a shorter name & choose vesa - only thing is to reload the correct drivers?
[03:54] <super-6-1> ok
[03:54] <super-6-1> thanks
