[09:05] <gaten> how can i tell what process is using /dev/dsp? its not showing up on my process list, but something is using it
[09:05] <unop> s3a, hmm, what you'll probably need to do is build a gutsy chroot on your system then and run virtualbox within it
[09:05] <Mighty_Penguin> if you have your whole system on different partitions and within a livecd, could you not mount them all on lets say /mount/ and chroot into it and have no problems working in it?
[09:05] <firsm> Does anyone know how I can prevent xorg from using a certain usb keyboard on my machine?
[09:06] <unop> s3a, a chroot howto exists here - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot

[09:14] <Paddy_EIRE> Shooooo, screenlets has very few bugs... great app
[09:14] <zetheroo> anyone?

[09:14] <Rafik> djhash, thanks but it doesn't work since the drive is off
[09:14] <s3lf> unop: no ?? because it is version 2.4.0
[09:14] <Shooooo> Paddy_EIRE: OK I'll grab the repository version when I get home... Looks like a fun little program. Thanks for the input.
[09:14] <s3lf> unop: the one installed is   Installed: 1:2.4.1-1ubuntu1
[09:14] <s3lf> unop: what does         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status mean?
[09:15] <unop> s3lf, do this to list all openoffice.org packages installed --   dpkg -l | grep -i openoffice
[09:15] <Paddy_EIRE> Shooooo, do not get put of by b0rking your system... its still all part of the learning process... sometimes I break things intentionally so as to fix them again :P
[09:15] <chocho> hello newbie here. people i have major problem. latest ubuntu and everything was fine. yesterday installed samba and the machine started to broke in different ways. first cant run anymore update any gui application requiring root access - it does not displays the password prompt. in console sudo blah requires lot of time to display password prompt and it also shows "unable to resolve host blah". i used firestarter - i am now blocked of internet. in fact now
[09:15] <chocho>  everything is weird. i uninstalled samba via apt-get remove samba. but the problems remain. any ideas please?
[09:15] <unop> s3lf, meaning, that package was downloaded and probably installed at some point in time
[09:16] <s3lf> unop: http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/390070/
[09:16] <s3lf> unop: but it does not tell me, from which source the package came ?
[09:16] <chocho> update: on restart it also shows error messages that it cannot load weather scripts and mixer and some other scripts
[09:16] <bazhang> chocho, lets break down your problems a bit; all was perfectly fine before samba install?
[09:17] <[Michelangelo]> hi guys see this topic: http://ubuntu-utah.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5349423#post5349423
[09:17] <chocho> bazhang, yep\
[09:17] <bazhang> chocho, and why are you running as root
[09:17] <Shooooo> Paddy_EIRE: Earlier today Ubuntu kept freezing just after the "NVidia" splash and just before the "Login" screen... I literally had to mash the keyboard for 10 seconds then it worked... No idea why that happened.
[09:17] <chocho> bazhang, i am not. i use sudo
[09:17] <unop> s3lf, you'll now need to run apt-cache policy on one of those package such as   apt-cache policy openoffice.org
[09:17] <bazhang> chocho, what weather scripts et al
[09:18] <Shooooo> Can I make a script that I can put on my desktop and drag ".java" files to the icon and it will run "javac" on that file?? Can scripts do that?
[09:18] <s3lf> unop: that's what I did already ...  http://ubuntuusers.de/paste/390071/

[09:21] <Paddy_EIRE> Shooooo, mashing the keyboard is never a good idea... also why dont you disable the nvidia splash

[09:41] <djhash> rand0m: it seems like using Xfce is a lot of trouble if you dont want to use the terminal to find where the program resides..  when you click on launcher.. there is an entry for command and then there is browse next to it.. when you hit browse.. you need to go to Filesystem->usr->bin... however if you have a slow computer and not much ram.. that folder has close to 2000 files.. depending on how much stuff you have installed..
[09:41] <meami> i destroyed my ubu trying to fix it and i have a couple of partitions in my lap my question is how do i choose in which pt to install ubunto after format? (i tryed to use manual 8.04 but it sayed ''no root file...pls fix ''

[09:49] <chocho> bazhang, in console - i have privileges. but in gnome - can't have since cant enter password
[09:50] <bazhang> chocho, you set a root password?
[09:50] <chocho> bazhang, plus my firewall got crazy somehow. plus these gnome error messages about the scripts. no i dont use root account - i use sudo for root stuff

[09:52] <gokul> ubottu : thanks a lot for ur reply.. i did install compizconfig -settings manager
[09:52] <bazhang> Flynsarmy, you checked appdb?
[09:53] <bazhang> Templar_Xion, this is no x server then?
[09:53] <djhash> Flynsarmy: i have tried a while ago.. and it worked fine.. but not sure about any plugins..
[09:53] <gokul> okay anybody can tell me how to add more virtual desktops on my ubuntu ?
[09:53] <gokul> i just have 2 right now
[09:53] <gokul> and also how to edit the cube option in compizconfig settings -manager
[09:53] <Flynsarmy> djhash, All earlier versions have worked fine for me too, but 5 comes up with an error 999
[09:53] <Templar_Xion> gokul: Right click on the small desktop icons on your taskbar and click configure desktops
[09:53] <bazhang> gokul, go to ccsm open and then go to general and up number of desktops to 4 in virtual horizontal
[09:54] <djhash> Flynsarmy: i haven't used notepad++ in a long time.. right now i just use eclipse.. or jedit..
[09:54] <gokul> thank you
[09:54] <bazhang> Templar_Xion, you have gui or not
[09:55] <djhash> bazhang: appdb? is that a texteditor with script highlighting?
[09:55] <Templar_Xion> bazhang: I have a gui but I want to know how to do it without a gui
[09:55] <bazhang> !appdb
[09:55] <bazhang> djhash, ^^
[09:55] <djhash> oh....ok..
[09:55] <Flynsarmy> Why can't you drag drop files out of the archive manager to any folder besides desktop?
[09:56] <php_girl> how do I mount a USB stick? what filetype shuld I use?
[09:56] <php_girl> how do I check what type it is?
[09:57] <raheem> php_girl: doesn't ubuntu mount it automatically ?
[09:57] <gute> [php_girl] /media/
[09:58] <gute> sda
[09:58] <php_girl> lol yea it does
[09:58] <php_girl> if I have a mounted disk. how do I see what Fs it is?
[09:58] <Templar_Xion> php_girl: man mount
[09:58] <undef> mount
[09:59] <undef> /dev/sda1 on / type ext3
[09:59] <undef> for example
[09:59] <djhash> Flynsarmy: you should be able to
[09:59] <fulhack> hey.. is www.revision3.com accessable by anybody?
[09:59] <raheem> fulhack: nope
[09:59] <fulhack> :-\ Thanks, raheem
[09:59] <Guest50013> djhash: re: try System->Preference->Appearance then click on the Visual effects-custom is already selected,should I change that?
[10:00] <Guest1286> bazhang, I did follow the intstructions but the problem I am takling about is a bit different
[10:00] <Templar_Xion> bazhang: Thats what I'm trying to figure out, which conf file to edit to add programs to start on boot via a conf file, not thru the gui
[10:00] <Templar_Xion> bazhang: ignore that
[10:00] <Templar_Xion> Where do I go to add files to the boot sequence? I.e. I want firefox to open up whenever I turn on my system. Via a conf file, not through the gui.
[10:00] <ba_dank> php-girl
[10:00] <djhash> Guest50013: then compiz should be whatever you set it up.. in the compiz settings manager
[10:00] <ba_dank> i love you php_girl
[10:01] <bazhang> ba_dank, dont
[10:01] <bazhang> Guest1286, what is the issue
[10:01] <bazhang> Templar_Xion, you got it then?
[10:01] <Templar_Xion> bazhang: Nope still looking
[10:01] <ba_dank> onok wong jowo ta nang kene
[10:01] <Guest50013> djhash - but I still have to manually start with compiz --replace when I reboot
[10:02] <bazhang> !id | ba_dank
[10:02] <boudewijn> And it is finally getting updates... This command line shite is really difficult.
[10:02] <Flynsarmy> djhash, I found out it does't work in list view in nautilus. only icon view
[10:02] <Flynsarmy> djhash, No idea why. it's annoying
[10:03] <Guest1286> bazhang, the issue is that my laptop has the wireless on/off button located on front side. However, even when the button is at the ON position, the Hardware Drivers in Kubuntu says "Not In use" in status. Thus, is there anyway to turn the wireless "on" manually? because it is turned on physically.
[10:03] <boudewijn> And I am installing ubuntu-desktop. No more command line for meee~
[10:03] <kmag> So which files besides /etc/X11/xorg.conf affect screen resolution?
[10:03] <djhash> Guest50013: have you done that since you last rebooted?
[10:03] <djhash> Flynsarmy: that is interesting..
[10:03] <unop> Templar_Xion, ~/.gnome2/session
[10:03] <Guest50013> I'll have another go
[10:03] <kmag> Going back to my backed-up original xorg.conf leaves me stuck at 800x600 :-(
[10:04] <tyberion> hey.. can anyone tell me how to install ghostscript on ubuntu.. which reps do I need?? :(
[10:04] <bazhang> Guest1286, you are flipping that button on/off regularly?
[10:04] <djhash> kmag: can you pastebin your xorg.conf
[10:04] <Guest1286> bazhang, No
[10:04] <bazhang> Guest1286, what does ifconfig show in terminal two entries or three
[10:04] <raheem> Guest1286: what model is it
[10:05] <bazhang> raheem, broadcom 43xx
[10:05] <unop> !info ghostscript | tyberion
[10:05] <raheem> the laptop ? because some hp models comes disabled .. & can be only enabled the supplied utility in widnows
[10:05] <Guest1286> raheem, yes I believe you are getting to my point.
[10:06] <Guest1286> Bazhang, I think I see the problem here
[10:06] <Guest1286> Bazhang, there is eth0, and lo which is local loopback
[10:06] <Home_> whats the best video driver for intel gm965?
[10:06] <bazhang> Guest1286, have heard about that before but no idea how to fix as I eschew windows
[10:06] <giantmidget> im trying to append a string from a variable to every line of a file with "sed -e 's_.*_$MYVAR&_'", but cant get the variable to get expanded. any ideas?
[10:07] <raheem> Guest1286: does ur laptop comes with Windows ? if yes, enable it there .. it should be working henceforth
[10:07] <Guest1286> raheem, I hate windows.. and this is why I am trying to find a way to enable this with out installing ... windows os :(
[10:08] <Templar_Xion> Where do I go to add files to the boot sequence? I.e. I want firefox to open up whenever I turn on my system. Via a conf file, not through the gui.
[10:08] <raheem> hhhm.. the issue is, hp's own utility comes only for windows .. so sad
[10:08] <bazhang> Templar_Xion, see answer above
[10:08] <Guest1286> raheem, .....it is sad
 Templar_Xion, ~/.gnome2/session
[10:08] <Guest1286> raheem, than I am going to throw another question
[10:09] <babo> is the tor network down or something ? i've just installed Tor Button for FF and all pages give instant 404's ...
[10:09] <Guest1286> raheem, Can i just install windows that run on linux and make my wireless enabled that way?
[10:09] <Guest1946> djhash: thanks, it worked on second reboot, the enabled compiz splash was hiding the "keep settings" dialogue, so I missed it
[10:09] <raheem> hhm.. never tried that way ..
[10:10] <Guest1286> but... heres the problem :(... this hp dv2000 do not have xp drivers... onyl vista
[10:10] <Templar_Xion> Bah I have KDE
[10:10] <Guest1286> this means that I need to partition the hdd and install vista on ntfs.... :(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
[10:10] <raheem> hhmm.. check for the driver hp 6720s .. both use the same, i guess
[10:10] <djhash> Guest1946: no problem..
[10:11] <Guest1286> raheem, :) I tried to install xp but failed many many times due to lack of few drivers that are crucial.. like.. sound driver? :)
[10:11] <kmag> so how can I fully restore my X11 configuration to what it was right after install?
[10:12] <kmag> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg isn't doing it
[10:12] <Guest1286> raheem, can we talk in private chat? I want you to help me achieve this goal :S
[10:12] <raheem> hhm.. i don't have experience with that particular model ..
[10:12] <raheem> the only thing is, I am aware of such an issue ..
[10:12] <Zeeon> Thanks for the links and advice got AWN up and running with applets and all.
[10:12] <Templar_Xion> Ah ha. adding shortcuts to ~/.kde/Autostart
[10:12] <bazhang> Guest1286, you will need to use ndiswrapper from that link I gave you
[10:12] <bazhang> np
[10:13] <raheem> bazhang: the 8.04.1 works perfectly on bcm4311 rev.02
[10:13] <raheem> i use it myself .. wihtout ndiswrapper ;)
[10:13] <Guest1286> bazhang, the problem is not the driver,,, or anything like that.. the problem is that this device will not turn on in "Linux"
[10:13] <bazhang> raheem, with the fw-cutter?
[10:13] <raheem> b43
[10:13] <raheem> :)
[10:13] <bazhang> sweet
[10:14] <nano_> i have an iso burnt onto a cdrom and i also have this iso file sitting on my desktop.  After running cksum on both, i get different results??
[10:14] <raheem> that's the sweetest thing i got after upgrading :)
[10:14] <djhash> kmag: in the /etc/X11 folder usually there is xorg.conf.0 (and maybe a 1, 2 3 45...) theses are all older versions..
[10:14] <Guest1286> raheem, correct, i never used any of those on archlinux, kde, gnome, xfce4, slackware, etc...  (and never had problems)
[10:14] <bazhang> Guest1286, there is no windows install left?
[10:14] <kaii> Guest1286: sounds like the device needs to be stuffed with firmware on start (which linux does not have)
[10:14] <Guest1286> I have windows installation on recover mode (small portion of my hdd) and I can install it but... than I need to reinstall linux on this..
[10:15] <bazhang> Guest1286, install windows then fix grub; no need for linux reinstall
[10:15] <raheem> bazhang: as far as I know, the hp guys locked the wireless down as a default .. it needs to be enabled from the hp-windows utility once
[10:15] <Guest1286> kaii, What I need to do is, install windows and turn wireless device on the windows and than boot into linux.. which is pain in the butt :(
[10:15] <kmag> djhash: yes... copying xorg.conf.2008.... to xorg.conf (and restarting X) didn't restore my resolution :-(
[10:15] <bazhang> raheem, had heard about that
[10:16] <raheem> bazhang: yup.. too sad .. i was lucky though
[10:16] <Guest1286> raheem, i am unlucky haha
[10:16] <djhash> kmag: sorry.. but i have to go.. i'll be back in about 30 minutes.. if u dont get help by then i'll try and hrlp you..
[10:16] <kmag> djhash: thanks :-D
[10:16] <Guest1286> raheem, ok I am installing windows vista right now and deleteing all my previous settings...
[10:17] <raheem> Guest1286: my recommendation would be, install win .. then, enable the wireless, there u go
[10:17] <raheem> sorry that this had to be this way .. sometimes, can't change the order :(
[10:17] <Guest1286> no need for sorry!
[10:18] <Guest1286> it is sad that the HP is only blind folded by the main stream markets
[10:18] <raheem> good thing is .. it is not the case with all models ... some models come locked.. that's all
[10:18] <kmag> So... the manpage for dpkg-reconfigure says that the debconf manpage lists the valid priority levels... but it doesn't... and my X11 is bork'd at the moment...
[10:19] <Guest1286> raheem, well can't we just come up with a software that we can use with a wine?
[10:19] <Guest1286> raheem, and than turn the wireless on that way? (faking the laptop that the windows OS has been started? )
[10:19] <kmag> Would a kind soul tell me the most verbose dpkg-reconfigure priority level?
[10:19] <raheem> this is something to do with the firmware / hardware .. don't know of any other solution right now
[10:20] <Guest1286> raheem, ok vista is not even installing right now.. thus, I am going to run the setup.exe for my driver and see what happens in linux... (wine)
[10:20] <raheem> :P
[10:20] <Guest1286> "operating system is not supported" ... (vista.exe does not run on wine?)..... ah
[10:21] <Templar_Xion> Guest1286: You can't install vista into ubuntu using wine
[10:21] <Guest1286> xion, i am not installing vista
[10:21] <Templar_Xion> Guest1286: Just making sure
[10:21] <Guest1286> xion, thank you for your attention tho..
[10:21] <Templar_Xion> np
[10:21] <Guest1286> Raheem!!!!!
[10:22] <Guest1286> Raheeem!!!!!!
[10:22] <Guest1286> the wireless button is blue now let me check
[10:22] <timandtom> I need a video editting thingy... Just something basic(Add/Delete pieces, add some text, has support for WMV and MPEG). Most importantly, needs to be simple. Any suggestions?
[10:22] <Guest1286> raheem, BRAVOOO!!!! ITS WORKING!!!!
[10:22] <Guest1286> raheem, didn't have to install vista and didn't have to run ndiswrapper
[10:23] <gute> [kmag] What's YOUR Problem?"
[10:23] <raheem> wow ..
[10:23] <bazhang> !yay | Guest1286
[10:23] <Guest1286> :) solution must be posted somehow....
[10:23] <Guest1286> how do I change my name by the way
[10:23] <bazhang> ubuntuforums.org Guest1286
[10:24] <Guest1286> device: BCM 4310 USB controller, interface: wlan0 active: yes
[10:24] <nico__> hi
[10:24] <raheem> :)
[10:24] <Guest1286> thank you everyone for helping !!!
[10:24] <raheem> no probs Guest1286
[10:24] <raheem> i learned something new :)
[10:24] <Guest1286> solution: run setup.exe from wine (it will show os not compatible) but this somehow triggers hp and turns it on
[10:25] <kmag> gute: monkeyed with xorg.conf, and when I restarted X, some wizard I've never seen before tried to help me fix my mistake, but copying my xorg.conf backup into place didn't fix it.
[10:25] <Guest1286> raheem, this is the most unprofessional way of fixing a problem .... haha
[10:25] <raheem> =))
[10:25] <raheem> result is what counts, in this case, atleast
[10:25] <Guest1286> raheem, is there a free irc for the linux ?
[10:25] <Guest1286> I will join right now with my laptop :)

[10:31] <raheem> hhm.. why don't u try the xchat then ?
[10:31] <Guest1286> raheem, just one thing raheem , what should the screen name be?
[10:32] <raheem> anyname
[10:32] <raheem> if you have registered, then, use that name
[10:32] <Guest1286> now I know the problem... where do i register? hehe
[10:32] <kmag> BTW, how come I get 2 or 3 rebuilds of initrd whenever I do dpkg-reconfigure --all ?
[10:32] <Starnestommy> Guest1286: you don't need to register to use irc
[10:33] <raheem> Guest1286: i said, if you have registered, use that nickname.. or use anyname

[10:43] <openuser> hi everybody, I have installed ubuntu in a friend's laptop and it was a succes, but the webcam doesn't work correctly at night (with the lights on), I can only see darker, My friend is using cheese, camorama doesn't detect the webcam (note in windows the application automatically fix the dark adding bright), does any person have any idea?
[10:43] <rockenrola> fulhack: make a backup of the database and copy the forum files
[10:44] <neeto> openuser: so is the camera getting any recording at all or is it just blank?
[10:44] <fulhack> rockenrola: Oh, I'm not the owner of the forum.. I can only access it through a browser, sorry. Something like a spider function inside firefox would be ultimate..
[10:44] <bazhang> openuser, you seen the webcam wiki?
[10:45] <openuser> neeto: it records perfect, but at night it's a bit darker and the image is horrible
[10:45] <schmrz> fulhack: well then u need a program which will crawl the web and save the web pages. You only need to specify link depth, but if there are so many posts it could take a while :)
[10:45] <openuser> bazhang: what wiki, maybe I haveb't seen it because I'm using google spain, where is it , in ubuntu doc?
[10:45] <bazhang> !webcam
[10:46] <rockenrola> fulhack: humm, that makes it more difficult
[10:46] <bazhang> openuser, ^^
[10:46] <raghu> hiiii frnds  when i click on save as button in gimp or gedit hey automatically get close can any 1 help and even when i click on takescreenshot it doesnt work
[10:46] <fulhack> schmrz: I have time.. I can't imagine it would take more than an hour.. Thing is I need to authenticate to read the forum, so I can't just wget :-\
[10:46] <rockenrola> how many threads it has? hundreads, thousands, more?
[10:46] <fulhack> rockenrola: 100-1000 tops, all text. Small amounts of text.

[10:49] <schmrz> fulhack: ok. but i think it's only a download manager it can't crawl through the website :)
[10:50] <rimple> I am debugging an application
[10:50] <rimple> Tryong to give breakpoint
[10:50] <raheem> rimple: and we are debugging you msg =)
[10:50] <schmrz> :)
[10:51] <fulhack> schmrz: Seems you are right :-\ Only grabbed the links from the first page
[10:52] <schmrz> fulhack: :\
[10:54] <Theo_> When i boot livecd the progressbar gets up to 88% and just freezes. I checked the cd for defects and its ok. I got amd X2 3800, 2GB RAM, nvidia 9600GT. It used to boot on my computer and the only changes i have done were replace my old gpu with a 9600GT. Any ideas?
[10:55] <rockenrola> fulhack: I see only too options. 1º write a script to search the forums and save, or ask the administrator for the files
[10:55] <raheem> Theo_: if you press the Esc . you would find the messages, i believe
[10:55] <rockenrola> *two
[10:55] <gordonjcp> Theo_: boot it in text mode, and see what it dies on
[10:55] <raheem> see if it throws any error messages
[10:55] <Theo_> ok
[10:56] <newb> hi i want to know why is Hardy stalling on a Pentium D with 1 GB of RAM
[10:56] <newb> i manage to log in
[10:56] <fulhack> rockenrola: Maybe.. I just think someone would have wanted to do this before.. Hmm.. There should be an app for this.
[10:56] <newb> but then after the performance is very sluggish
[10:56] <newb> the entire GUI freezes :(
[10:56] <Theo_> how do i boot in text mode? i pressed f6 and see other options now
[10:57] <GibbaTheHutt> newb see if you can log into a different console via ctrl-alt-f2 and do a top, see whats taking up most cpu
[10:57] <schmrz> fulhack: there probably is but you would have to do some intensive googling :D
[10:58] <kmag> theo_ : ... so do you want single-user mode?  Will the ttys 1-5 work for you if X is still running?
[10:58] <Theo_> x is not running
[10:58] <Theo_> it does not even boot
[10:58] <fulhack> schmrz: Yeah.. I guess that's what I have to do :P I don't have the time to write a spider w/ authentication.. :P
[10:58] <raghu>  hiiii frnds  when i click on save as button in gimp or gedit hey automatically get close can any 1 help and even when i click on takescreenshot it doesnt work
[10:58] <djhash> kmag: did u find the help you needed?
[10:59] <chakir> Hi all
[10:59] <kmag> theo_ : Your system uses GRUB as its bootloader?  Append "single" without the quotes to the kernel line
[10:59] <chakir> Is there any way to mount network drives when Ubunutu is starting?   I hope that fixes it.
[11:00] <corporal_clegg> hello I have an SD card with no partitions on it, the device if /dev/sdb and it's formatted as  a vfat, but I can't mount it...
[11:00] <djhash> kmag: ok.. good luck
[11:00] <gordonjcp> corporal_clegg: listen to pink floyd much?
[11:01] <raheem> corporal_clegg: dmesg & see the error
[11:01] <pria-30> singa
[11:01] <kmag> djhash: though, while you're here, which files other than xorg.conf control screen resolution?
[11:01] <trupheenix> i'm facing issues running Ubuntu hardy on a Pentium D 3.0 Ghz CPU with 1 GB Ram. After I log in the GUI stalls.  Some sort of scraper.
[11:02] <djhash> kmag: all i am aware of is xorg.conf.. i think it is the only one..
[11:02] <cppnewbie> for some reason, at irrelevant moments, my x closes and im suddenly thrown into terminal for no obvious reason. happening to anyone else?
[11:02] <chakir_> is there anyway to mount automatically network drives each time Ubuntu starts?
[11:02] <gordonjcp> extor: spamming, or just repeatedly hitting it?
[11:02] <schmrz> fulhack: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rcm/websphinx/ <- Here is the solution :)
[11:02] <djhash> trupheenix: can you get to a terminal
[11:03] <cppnewbie> now this just happened, so i just alt+f2'd and used irssi to ask, how i can reenable gnome through terminal
[11:03] <extor> repeatedly hitting it the exact same way day after day hour after hour
[11:03] <corporal_clegg> dmesg says: no partition table
[11:03] <gordonjcp> extor: you can reject given things in your apache config, or even with a .htaccess file
[11:04] <fulhack> schmrz: That seesm sweet!! Thanks!
[11:04] <garethfm> extor: what are your sites?
[11:04] <extor> how about rejecting with iptables
[11:04] <extor> my sites are web proxies
[11:04] <gordonjcp> extor: yup, that would work
[11:04] <schmrz> fulhack: you just have to run ti in a browser in which you are loged in the forum :)
[11:04] <extor> they are trying to bounce off my proxies to scrape stuff off google for some reason
[11:04] <gordonjcp> extor: it's probably also worth contacting the abuse@ contact for the block
[11:04] <fulhack> schmrz: yes, that is EXACTLY what I wanted! :)
[11:05] <extor> gordonjcp, yeah I was thinking of contacting abuse
[11:05] <garethfm> heh, arent they asking for abuse?
[11:05] <extor> but honestly I need to get a grip on exactly what is going on on my box too
[11:05] <rockenrola> fulhack: wget does it! check http://fosswire.com/2008/04/21/create-a-mirror-of-a-website-with-wget/
[11:05] <gordonjcp> extor: or a redirect, that would be good too
[11:05] <schmrz> fulhack: i'm glad i could help
[11:05] <gordonjcp> extor: redirect them to lastmeasure ;-)
[11:05] <extor> redirect...hmm...would that even work on a scraper? A scraper script might ignore redirect
[11:06] <fulhack> rockenrola: Yes, but I need to use form based authentication :-\
[11:06]  * extor wonders what lastmeasure is
[11:06] <gordonjcp> extor: a very nasty shock site, do *not* go there
[11:06] <extor> :|
[11:06] <gordonjcp> really, seriously
[11:06] <rockenrola> fulhack: wget supports cookies. just discover wich file it is
[11:06] <extor> haha ok
[11:06] <chakir_> is there anyway to mount automatically network drives each time Ubuntu starts?
[11:07] <kmag> extor : maybe just proxy them to one of those pharma sites.
[11:07] <fulhack> rockenrola: .. really? Hmm.. That might be an alternative as well then.. I'll look in to that!
[11:07] <chakir_> Is it possible to use Thunderbird to access a Exchange server?
[11:08] <gordonjcp> chakir_: if the exchange server is offering IMAP, it's easy
[11:08] <kmag> extor : Are their google searches unordinary?  Maybe they're trying to find exploits.
[11:08] <kmag> extor : or are they trying to set up gmail accounts?
[11:09] <extor> kmag, they seem to be looking for sploits..here is the url they are trying to hit http://www.google.com/search?q=inurl%3Aforum%2Fviewforum.php%20%2Bdid%20-face%0D&num=100
[11:10] <extor> I did a base64 decode and got that...i think I need something like rawurldecode to clean it up further
[11:10] <chakir_> gordonjcp, how can I know that?
[11:10] <Theo_> how do yuo boot ubuntu live cd in text mode?!?!
[11:10] <gordonjcp> chakir_: ask the admin, or just try it?
[11:10] <extor> looks like a forum exploit?
[11:11] <chakir_> gordonjcp, I have two methods now: a) webmail, I open a Web navigator and I go to an adress like: http//www.wathever.com/exchange
[11:11] <schmrz> extor: it doesn't look like one to me :)
[11:12] <chakir_> gordonjcp, the second method, is opening a VPN conenction, and using the Outlook with a machine that is actually the web server, I just tell to outlook the name of the server
[11:12] <henux> Can you instruct me to config my X server to properly handle diacritics? Typing é for example in xterm or emacs just outputs plain e. Gtk apps work.
[11:12] <gordonjcp> chakir_: it's possible that exchange will work with the web interface
[11:12] <gordonjcp> s/exchange/evolution/
[11:12] <extor> schmrz, what are they looking for then?
[11:12] <corporal_clegg> I got my sd card mounted! :)
[11:13] <chakir_> gordonjcp, I dind't understan the las thing you wrote (s/exchange/evolution)
[11:13] <juzzydee> Can anyone help me with a slight repo/tutorial problem. My hdd died on my d600, and I've had to replace it, now I can't find the site that had the how to on broadcom for 8.04.
[11:13] <kmag> extor: yea, it looks to me like they're looking for unpatched bulletin board installations
[11:13] <juzzydee> It started with cafe I think
[11:13] <Theo_> is it possible to boot live cd in text mode? because i found an unanswered post on the forum that asked the same
[11:13] <gordonjcp> chakir_: Evolution offers Microsoft Exchange as a server type
[11:14] <eth01> microsoft exchange heh
[11:14] <N3X0NIC> Hi there!
[11:14] <ikonia> Theo_: no, it's gui only
[11:14] <eth01> it's a bit rubbish, isn't it? :)
[11:14] <Theo_> but,
[11:14] <chakir_> gordonjcp, yeah I know, I'm already using it, but it is contanstly crashing and hanging, and that's why I want to get rid of it
[11:14] <schmrz> extor: for every forum that uses a script with the name viewforum.php :\
[11:14] <eth01> .....
[11:14] <Theo_> is it possible to se what is going on while it is booting?
[11:14] <eth01> schmrz: vbulletin that
[11:14] <Gh0Sty2K> guys im using vmware and testing ubuntu, have set vmware to share the host internet connection, but its coming up with a different IP address in Ubuntu which does not seem to work.. any ideas?
[11:15] <Gh0Sty2K> how can i change the IP address in ubuntu?
[11:15] <chakir_> gordonjcp, there only two mail managers in Linux (Evoulution, Thunderbird)? Aren't there more???
[11:15] <eth01> Gh0Sty2k: it will be different.
[11:15] <eth01> Gh0Sty2k: it'll be a internal IP address, look at interfaces in /etc/
[11:15] <Gh0Sty2K> even when its sharing the host's IP ?
[11:15] <eth01> yes.
[11:15] <darkben> helo
[11:15] <trupheenix> djhash: i started in GNOME failsafe. it seems there's some problem with the 945GMA and compiz fusion. i was surprised :)
[11:15] <Gh0Sty2K> hmm.. ill try ping test.. its ping host
[11:15] <darkben> I have a problem
[11:16] <eth01> ping <IP_ADDRESS> probably
[11:16] <darkben> any pro here?
[11:16] <Theo_> "buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" what is that supposed to mean?
[11:16] <eth01> darkben: what
[11:16] <rockenrola> chakir_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_e-mail_clients
[11:16] <chakir_> So it's really difficult to move to a Linux based system for the people who work in big companies, we try but the Linux tools for some important tasks are really a crap
[11:16] <eth01> Theo_: hope you don't see that again
[11:16] <chakir_> rockenrola, thanks
[11:16] <necromxxx> does anyone know how to fix this: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'   I keep getting it when i try to unpack something
[11:16] <Theo_> what does it mean?
[11:16] <achadwick> Theo_: fd0 is your floppy drive. I wouldn't worry about that.
[11:17] <darkben> How can io download glibc
[11:17] <darkben> without apt-get
[11:17] <darkben> I need to download the package
[11:17] <Theo_> ok, i dont have one
[11:17] <eth01> Theo_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=461599
[11:17] <Starnestommy> darkben: http://packages.ubuntu.com
[11:17] <eth01> didn't thin kso
[11:17] <eth01> think *
[11:17] <darkben> you know I need a deb package contaon glibc files
[11:17] <achadwick> Theo_: that's probably why it's erroring then. Ignore that line :)
[11:17] <eth01> Theo_: go into your BIOS and ensure FDD is disabled.
[11:17] <Theo_> ok now its booting
[11:17] <eth01> FDD -> floppy disk
[11:17] <Theo_> yeah, i think its enabled in my bios
[11:17] <eth01> thats why then...
[11:18] <Theo_> because sometimes i plug one in
[11:18] <Gh0Sty2K> hmm, when i ping google.com i get nothing..
[11:18] <schmrz> darkben: packages.ubuntu.com or use synaptic to download the package but not to install it. The  go to apt cache and find the package there
[11:18] <eth01> Gh0Sty2k: and your DNS is?
[11:18] <darkben> I need the package to download in my office then i transfer it with my flash drive to my home PC
[11:18] <raghu> hi frnds when i click on saveas button in gedit and gmip they automatically quit can any help me
[11:18] <N3X0NIC> I tested gtk-chtheme and after that I wanted to reset my Theme back to human with the Theme Manager. But then my Screen freezed and I pressed "Ctrl + Alt + Backspace" . I wanted to login but then there just were a black screen with an white box on the top-left corner. Can anybody help me?
[11:18] <Gh0Sty2K> ahh server is running DNS too, wonder if thats the problem..
[11:18] <darkben> glibc is requierd for my nvidia driver
[11:18] <eth01> Gh0Sty2k: no DNS and nothing resolves
[11:19] <necromxxx> anyone know what this is: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[11:19] <Gh0Sty2K> Ya good point. Ill try IP instead.
 I got that error last night, or a similar one at least
[11:19] <victamower> I have a desktop running feisty, booting off a raid array (md) - I want to dist-upgrade to gutsy then to hardy - will I run into problems?
[11:19] <juzzydee> the short of the story is I have a new hdd now
[11:19] <Gh0Sty2K> But i did point to gateway which should function fine for dns
[11:19] <darkben> thanks
[11:19] <Gh0Sty2K> My windows box has the same setup and it works fine
[11:19] <Theo_> the booting freezes at  "Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald   _"
[11:19] <schmrz> N3X0NIC: Well then simply download it with synaptic BUT don't install it (you can specify that in synaptic), after that find the packages in apt cache folder.
[11:19] <Starnestommy> necromxxx: you started a new line at a place where you shouldn've in a script
[11:19] <eth01> Gh0Sty2k: k#
[11:19] <necromxxx> im not writing a script
[11:20] <eth01> Theo_: go into your bios and disable the fdd. then reboot.
[11:20] <necromxxx> im just trying to unpack as root
[11:20] <Gh0Sty2K> <-- total noob!
[11:20] <schmrz> darkben: Well then simply download it with synaptic BUT don't install it (you can specify that in synaptic), after that find the packages in apt cache folder.
[11:20] <Kenny> lol
[11:20] <Theo_> ok
[11:20] <darkben> Great thanks
[11:20] <eth01> that means you have to actually reboot....
[11:20] <achadwick> raghupathi: does this affect other programs too? Try Firefox and PDF Reader (evince) too.
[11:20] <Theo_> yeah, i iunderstand, im in the bios now
[11:20] <eth01> yeah?
[11:20] <avis> how do i enable direct hardware rendering in hardy for a 8500gt ?  thats the error i get in eve online when i try to run hardware tests
[11:21] <Theo_> legacy diskette A: DISABLED
[11:21] <darkben> now i'm downloading glibc-source_2.7-10ubuntu3_all.de
[11:21] <Theo_> ok
[11:21] <darkben> is it ok?
[11:21] <juzzydee> So no one knows the cafesomething site/repo where the broadcom wireless packages/tutorial reside. Google is being really unhelpful.
[11:22] <eth01> yeah, now try rebooting it.
[11:22] <Starnestommy> !broadcom
[11:22] <darkben> is glibc-source_2.7-10ubuntu3_all.deb is the right package for glibc
[11:22] <juzzydee> Thankyou!
[11:22] <schmrz> darkben: why do u need glibc, i think it's one of the base packages you can't simply install it like you can other packages
[11:22] <eth01> juzzydee: is that an asus barebones?
[11:22] <juzzydee> Nah, a Dell d600
[11:22] <kmag> djhash: dpkg-reconfigure --all didn't give me back my installation config
[11:22] <darkben> I need it for nvidia driver.
[11:22] <eth01> ah
[11:22] <ikonia> darkben: whoaaaaa don't compile glibc
[11:23] <eth01> good luck :p
[11:23] <kmag> djhash : even though I installed 2 days ago :-(
[11:23] <wjlroe> Has anyone had a problem with vim - when you start it, press down arrow, it deletes a number of lines and enters Insert mode. There's nothing complicated in .vimrc - just syntax on and colorscheme
[11:23] <darkben> y?
[11:23] <ikonia> darkben: you don't need to recompile glibc for the nvidia driver
[11:23] <schmrz> ikonia: that's what i'm saying :)
[11:23] <eth01> darkben: use apt-get
[11:23] <Theo_> does ubuntu support the 9000 nvidia series?
[11:23] <jitu3485> Hi, how to access thrash fom command line?
[11:23] <juzzydee> haha thanks, it was so painless last time, but my hdd died last night, so I'm on a fresh install
[11:23] <ikonia> Theo_: the driver doesnt out of the box
[11:23] <kmag> djhash : using debootstrap another install on the same box.
[11:23] <eth01> theo_: you should know if you read the documentation supplied
[11:23] <juzzydee> There was some repo I added and it had the broadcom stuff and just worked.
[11:23] <Theo_> ikonia: but it should boot?
[11:23] <darkben> I haven't any high speed internet in my house
[11:23] <rockenrola> .local/share/Trash/
[11:23] <achadwick> darkben: what exactly are you trying to do? You mention your nvidia driver needs glibc. In the ubuntu/Debian world, that probably means you need a compiler and a dev package to build the nvidia stuff.
[11:23] <ikonia> Theo_: a video card driver doesn't stop the box booting
[11:23] <schmrz> microwaver:
[11:24] <Theo_> thanks
[11:24] <eth01> ikonia: agreed
[11:24] <legend2440> !trash |  jitu3485
[11:24] <jitu3485> rockenrola, thanks
[11:24] <darkben> yesterday i move from fedora 7 to ubuntu 8
[11:24] <darkben> after installing
[11:24] <darkben> i try to install nvidia driver
[11:24] <Theo_> now its on starting hardware abstraction laer hald. i will just wait
[11:24] <darkben> I have 5500
[11:24] <jitu3485> tahks all guys
[11:24] <ikonia> darkben right so you don't need to install the nvidia driver
[11:24] <eth01> you moved from fc to ubuntu? :/
[11:24] <darkben> y?
[11:24] <ikonia> darkben: the ubuntu hard ware driver manager will use an effective supplied driver
[11:25] <ikonia> darkben: have you read any of the basic documents on ubuntu ?
[11:25] <microwaver> schmrz, yes?
[11:25] <eth01> you're not making sense darkben, it sounds as if you did some sort of unofficial migration
[11:25] <achadwick> darkben: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[11:25] <platyhelminth> !lol
[11:25] <ikonia> eth01: I think he means a clean install
[11:25] <djhash> putting trash in the share folder!!.. isn't that a security risk? or do each user get their own trash folder?
[11:25] <eth01> hopefully
[11:25] <darkben> suy
[11:25] <ikonia> djhash: its in your home dir
[11:25] <schmrz> microwaver: what?
[11:25] <juzzydee> Ahhh found it!
[11:25] <juzzydee> Cafuego!
[11:26] <darkben> y?
[11:26] <ikonia> darkben: are you on the ubuntu box now
[11:26] <darkben> is fedora is better
[11:26] <darkben> ?
[11:26] <darkben> yes
[11:26] <microwaver> schmrz, you said something to me :°)
[11:26] <darkben> I'm in ubutu

[11:26] <necromxxx> how do i fix this *** NO PREDEFINED KERNEL COMPILER IS DETECTED
[11:26] <darkben> yes
[11:26] <ikonia> necromxxx: what are you doing ?
[11:26] <djhash> oh. right.. the ~... 'doh....
[11:26] <schmrz> microwaver: sorry :) accident :D
[11:26] <achadwick> necromxxx: need context
[11:27] <necromxxx> trying to install a driver
[11:27] <microwaver> shmrz no problem at all :)
[11:27] <ikonia> darkben: ok, goto the system -> administration menu and open the package that says hardware drivers
[11:27] <necromxxx> sound driver
[11:27] <darkben> I try it says
[11:27] <darkben> nvdia driver enable not in use
[11:27] <djhash> click on the box..
[11:28] <ikonia> darkben: ok, thats probably becaue the module is not loaded
[11:28] <necromxxx> trying to create a makefile on it
[11:28] <darkben> what should i do?
[11:28] <ikonia> darkben: do you know how to load a kernel module ?
[11:28] <darkben> NO
[11:28] <schmrz> :)
[11:28] <_Gui_> hello everybody :)
[11:28] <ikonia> darkben: type "lsmod | grep nvdiai"
[11:28] <ikonia> darkben: that should read nvidia
[11:28] <djhash> darkben: silly question.. is there a box before "not in use" can you click on it?
[11:29] <necromxxx> get this at the end  configure: creating ./config.status

[11:29] <ikonia> djhash: very good point
[11:29] <achadwick> darkben: ISTR it's just a checkbox. Click it.
[11:29] <ikonia> darkben: what do you mean not working ?
[11:29] <ikonia> darkben: how is it not working ?
[11:29] <darkben> the box has a check bot it's red
[11:29] <platyhelminth> !sexuality
[11:29] <_Gui_> can anyone tell me whether ubuntu creates any other partitions besides the main one and teh swap?
[11:29] <ikonia> darkben: is it checked ?
[11:29] <darkben> yes it has a check
[11:29] <ikonia> !msgthebot > platyhelminth
[11:30] <ikonia> darkben: ok, so do "lsmod | grep nvidia"
[11:30] <remoteCTR1> anyone ever installed xen?
[11:30] <KenBW2> _Gui_: Yea, it creates a partition for the OS and a swap partition
[11:30] <darkben> Greatthe box became green
[11:30] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: most of the time
[11:30] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: many times sorry
[11:30] <schmrz> :\
[11:31] <darkben> that's great really thanks
[11:31] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: hehe have you already tried with the current kernel?
[11:31] <ikonia> darkben: ok, so now press ctrl+alt+backspace and it will reset your X session and you should be using the nvidia driver
[11:31] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: not done it on hardy
[11:31] <schmrz> The box is mad.
[11:31] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: it comletely busts the kernel on boot attempt:/
[11:31] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: can you be more specific
[11:31] <_Gui_> _KenBW2_: So it just creates 2 partitions? Can I partition them before and then just choose em during setup? it's that my partitioning scheme is a bit, erm, complicated
[11:31] <eth01> xen is good if you're wanting to spread it across 30 servers or so... literally...
[11:31] <eth01> openvz is good for individual stuff, as is er... virtualbox
[11:32] <zetheroo> whats the command for locking your screen?
[11:32] <djhash> ikonia: actually ubuntu prefers a restart.. I remember doing the backspace thingy.. then it wont do other stuff like updates and stuff..
[11:32] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: i dont know if its hardware related, as i treid with two servers that have quite similar hardware, but it seems to have a severe problem with the scsi controller...
[11:32] <ikonia> djhash: it's just restarting the X server - thats it, thats all I want it to do
[11:32] <eth01> if you don't know how to use xen they why an earth bloody install it in the first place.
[11:32] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: as I said can you be more specific ?
[11:32] <schmrz> eth01: So he can learn to use it :)
[11:32] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: last message that i see is something about aic79xx  then a bunch of error hex codes and then its stuck completely...
[11:32] <eth01> yes, but this is xen we're talking about.
[11:33] <eth01> #xen
[11:33] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: what precisely do you wanna know?
[11:33] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: guess we'd have to look at the error it's moaning about the aic driver
[11:33] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: the hex codes can be "ok" or they could be a bad sign
[11:34] <darkben> is ubuntu better than fedora?
[11:34] <remoteCTR1> eth01: got any probs there mate?;)
[11:34] <InsomniaCity`> What algorithm is recommended for home-directory encryption?
[11:34] <bullgard4> [GNOME] Pressing Applications > System Tools > 'Report a Problem...' does not open any window. How to fix this?
[11:34] <ikonia> darkben: thats just a subjective opinion
[11:34] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: well as i said its quite a statement so i didnt write it down, shall i do so?
[11:34] <ikonia> bullgard4: what system tools do you have installed
[11:34] <darkben> what's urs?
[11:34] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: ok, so it's borking on the driver
[11:35] <zetheroo> whats the command for locking your screen?
[11:35] <ikonia> darkben: does it matter, this is a support channel
[11:35] <ikonia> zetheroo: xlock ? I can't remember the gnome version
[11:35] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: i got the impression, yes, and its not all new hardware at all, those servers are like 3
[11:35] <djhash> zetheroo: CTRL+ALT+L
[11:35] <remoteCTR1> years old
[11:35] <darkben> cuz i moved i wanna know
[11:36] <schmrz> zetheroo: xscreensaver-command -lock
[11:36] <ikonia> darkben: thats not relevant to this channel, remember this is an ubuntu support channel only, for general discussion join #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:36] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: what would you suggest me to do?
[11:36] <darkben> thanks
[11:36] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: log a bug with the xen kernel team
[11:36] <bullgard4> ikonia: gnome-system-tools and system-tools-backends
[11:37] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: i was afraid you'd say something like that *g* (by the way it works with debian etch)
[11:37] <ikonia> bullgard4: gnome-system-tools arn't actually applications that go in that menu
[11:37] <ikonia> bullgard4: thinks like virtual manager are "system" tools, I appriciate the name may be confusing
[11:37] <ikonia> bullgard4: s/thinks/things
[11:37] <pen> anyone know the documentation for clearlooks for using in gtk2 design?
[11:38] <raj_> friends plz let me know what for is this symbain is ?
[11:39] <ikonia> raj_: pardon ?
[11:39] <ikonia> raj_: could you re-word your question a little better please.
[11:39] <raj_> symbain
[11:39] <raj_> symbain software
[11:39] <djhash> ikonia: translation: what is "symbain" used for?
[11:39] <pen> anyone know the documentation for clearlooks for using in gtk2 design?
[11:39] <ikonia> raj_: I can't see any software called symbain in the ubuntu repos
[11:39] <ikonia> pen: not really an ubuntu question
[11:40] <runlvl> DEFACED SITES LIST =) http://www.datasec.info
[11:40] <runlvl> yeah
[11:40] <bullgard4>  ikonia What do you mean by 'Virtual Manager'?
[11:40] <ColdRedBlooded> who knows asterisk around here?
[11:40] <jeeves__> can anyone recomend a good site planning tool?
[11:40] <ikonia> runlvl: we don't need that URL please.
[11:40] <microwaver> jeeves__, as in?
[11:40] <ikonia> bullgard4: an application such as "vitual manager"
[11:40] <microwaver> anyone know any XFIRE alternatives ?
[11:40] <pen> ikonia, it's overlapped, if you don't know then just say so
[11:40] <ikonia> pen: http://clearlooks.sourceforge.net/
[11:41] <pen> ikonia, I want the parameters
[11:41] <ikonia> pen: it's not overlapped - clearlooks is not an ubuntu product, so providing documentation for it is nothing to do with ubuntu
[11:41] <jeeves__> microwaver, I'm trying to plan out the menu systems for my new Joomla site, and I want to get a graphical tool that I can send the rest of the idoits on my dev team so we're all working from the same page.
[11:41] <bullgard4> ikonia: Synaptic does not know any 'virtual manager'. How can I find 'virtual manager'?
[11:41] <bjb_nyj101> I've installed ubuntu via wubi, and was wondering how to change the windows vista boot manager so that ubuntu is the default selection
[11:41] <eth01> runlvl: don't
[11:41] <ikonia> bullgard4: do you need a virtual manager ?
[11:41] <Lible> hello everyone, I'm having a problem installing ubuntu, everything goes fine until you have to configure the partitions. Fact is, the installer shows me that I have no partitions, that I only have two empty drives
[11:41] <gordonjcp> ok
[11:41] <ikonia> Lible: are you using raid
[11:41] <microwaver> jeeves__, aha joomla, so ytou want , a flow chart of your website?
[11:42] <gordonjcp> Lible: did you expect to have partitions on those drives?
[11:42] <Lible> yes
[11:42] <Lible> I'm planning to do a dualboot with XP
[11:42] <bullgard4> ikonia: I do not know what do you mean by an application 'virtual manager'. So I cannot tell if I need a virtual manager.
[11:42] <ikonia> Lible: yes you are using raid, or yes you expected partitions
[11:42] <Lible> both yes
[11:42] <ikonia> bullgard4: Virtual Manager is an interface to KVM
[11:42] <ikonia> Lible: ok - raid is the problem
[11:42] <raj_> i want to install symbain OS can any one help me ?
[11:42] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> why are the hardware test results publishable to everyone?
[11:42] <ikonia> Lible: your using a technology called "rake raid"
[11:43] <ikonia> raj_: we don't support symbain here - only ubuntu
[11:43] <kmag> djhash : so I have another Hardy install on my third HD ... any idea which all files I need to copy to get an identical X config?
[11:43] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> and why are MAC addresses and other identifying information in the XML files?
[11:43] <Lible> don't know, probably not
[11:43] <ikonia> Lible: rake raid is not a technology designed for linux, it's basiclly a windows software raid
[11:43] <jeeves__> microwaver, yea.  I'm currently running PHPbb, and it dosn't have a lot of the features I'm looking for (maybe Joomla isn't the one I need, so I'll also take sudgestions.  Bonus points on if I can admin it from a desktop app).  And yes, I'd like to map it out so I'm not getting lost
[11:43] <djhash> kmag: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:43] <ikonia> Lible: I beliveve you are using "fake raid" are you using raid off your motherboard controllers
[11:43] <schmrz> raj_: Symbian is an OS for mobile phones. For any other question go to #symbian
[11:43] <juzzydee> jeeves - Django built for the win!
[11:44] <raj_> thax
[11:44] <Lible> I don't know really, I'm not the "adminstrator" of this computer
[11:44] <jeeves__> juzzydee, I made a point when I moved accross the country to STOP using Windows
[11:44] <Lible> any way to find out using windows's tools?
[11:44] <ikonia> Lible: then you probably shouldn't be installing ubuntu on it
[11:44] <ikonia> Lible: contact the administator of that PC
[11:44] <juzzydee> Yeah, Django is the python web framework
[11:44] <juzzydee> It likes linux a lot, and it's a pleasure to develop with.
[11:45] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> can anyone answer my question?
[11:45] <jeeves__> juzzydee, did I mention that I don't code?  I'm the guy in the basement making sure stuff runs.  I leave the programming to the lazy slackers on the top floor
[11:45] <juzzydee> So it's not a pre-built plug it in solution, but it really honestly is a pleasure to develop with none the less.
[11:45] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> surely this is a large privacy concern!
[11:45] <Lible> heh, thing is, the adminisrator asked me to install it himself
[11:45] <ikonia> Lible: then go and speak to him and ask him
[11:45] <juzzydee> Ahhh, fair enough :)
[11:45] <Lible> I've installed ubuntu before on different computers and everything has went fine
[11:45] <bullgard4> ikonia: I do not use any kernel_based_virtual_machine.
[11:45] <ikonia> bullgard4: then you don't need that tool
[11:45] <juzzydee> I wonder if there is existing plug in cms solutions built using Django or Turbogears. One would assume so.
[11:46] <bullgard4> ikonia: I agree.
[11:46] <schmrz> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: Well don't publish it.
[11:46] <jeeves__> so, any sudgestions on the flowchart?
[11:46] <microwaver> jeeves__, well I'm a joomla user myself, but don't have a 'flow chart' of it.
[11:46] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> excuse me, schmrz, but I didn't know what it published
[11:46] <microwaver> jeeves__, what's the main purpose of the webpage?
[11:46] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: what is your question
[11:47] <mmc> i was used to use pidgin for ICQ, in Gutsy.   Recently it refuses connecting to ICQ, since it's an old version. but there seems to be no upgrade (in gutsy repo).
[11:47] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hwtest/+question/32317
[11:47] <ikonia> mmc: the upgrade has been pushed out, check again
[11:47] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> I want to know why the hardware test tool which is meant to gather data on the sort of hardware people are using is record IP addresses, MAC addresses and hardware UUIDs to a public text file
[11:48] <Shoopuf> Ubuntu gets kinda sluggish while downloading "additional packages" while doing a package install and expanding the "Terminal" arrow. Anyone else get that?
[11:48] <jeeves__> microwaver, ok, check out www.tessawhite.ca/site/ for the PHPbb mess, and then check out www.tessawhite.ca/main/ for the Joomla mess.  I'd like to get something that I can keep track of all of my e-mails from the elected officals, and to add some stats (ie. how long it takes them to get back to me, etc), as well, I'll end up making users for each offical so people can directly e-mail them from the site.
[11:48] <kmag> ta_bu_shi_da_yu = "s/he is not a big fish"?
[11:48] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> kmag fraid so
[11:48] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: are you chris sherlock ?
[11:48] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> yup
[11:48] <bullgard4> [GNOME] Pressing Applications > System Tools > 'Report a Problem...' does not open any window. How to fix this?
[11:49] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: so thats the problem, you don't have to send the hardware test results in, and that information is nothing usable anyway
[11:49] <jeeves__> microwaver, I'd apericate any help you can offer to add the "flash" to the site.  I'll worry about the "bitch work" to put up the content, but I'm TOTTALY lost as how it works
[11:49] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> anyway... I guess I'm NOT that concerned for myself
[11:49] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> but...
[11:49] <m1r> hello
[11:49] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> if you have a nifty app that publishes stuff, shouldn't there be an option to at least see what data is published to start with?
[11:49] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: so lets not discuss it then
[11:49] <m1r> hello ikonia
[11:49] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> ikonia: why is that?
[11:49] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: if you don't care,
[11:50] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> ikonia: I might not care, many others do
[11:50] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> I thought Ubuntu was interested in privacy
[11:50] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> I guess not
[11:50] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: so let them log a bug or dicuss it, it's been security reviewed and passed
[11:50] <jeeves__> microwaver, did you get to see what I'm talking about?
[11:50] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> can you send me a link to where it was security reviewed?
[11:50] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: no
[11:50] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> why might that be?
[11:51] <microwaver> jeeves__, i'm looking at page nw
[11:51] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: I don't know links of the top of my head
[11:51] <microwaver> jeeves__, what you're looking for is someone who makes a site and you just update it all?
[11:51] <flamen> hi...how can i find linux bios for my laptop?(not from factory....)
[11:51] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: look at what the tools says "the following information will be sent to launcpad" it tells you exactly what it's sending
[11:51] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> how would I go about finding the link then ikonia?
[11:51] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> ikonia - actually, it doesn't
[11:51] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: there may not even be a link, it may not be public
[11:51] <Duesentrieb> hi all -- i have the latest version of svn installed from the ubuntu repos. when i'm trying to use svnversion, though, i get an error:
[11:51] <Duesentrieb> svnversion: error while loading shared libraries: libsvn_subr-1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[11:51] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: what do you mean it doesnt, it sends what it says it will
[11:52] <Duesentrieb> "locate libsvn_subr" shows /usr/lib/libsvn_subr-1.so.1 but no /usr/lib/libsvn_subr-1.so.0
[11:52] <jeeves__> microwaver, did you see the general idea of what I'm working on?  I'm trying to prove that the elected officals are NOT doing their job.  Then when I get the media involved, and the public starts to hit the site, they can graphically see how long it takes them to reply, etc
[11:52] <Duesentrieb> i guess that is the problem
[11:52] <Duesentrieb> how can i fix that?
[11:52] <jeeves__> microwaver, but I also want them to be able to read ALL of the content on there with highlights on the newest stuff, etc
[11:53] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> ikonia try running the hardware test tool
[11:53] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> it does not tell you the exact details of what it is sending
[11:53] <kmag> djhash : anyway, thanks for your help.
[11:53] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: it does - your cpu, your device list, your packages etc
[11:53] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> it asks a series of questions, you answer them, you type in your launchpad email address and then it send the info
[11:53] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> and no, it doesn't
[11:53] <djhash> kmag: your welcome.
[11:53] <jeeves__> microwaver, and possibly to set up accounts for each offical and let the public click on the user and when they send a message on the site, it'll actully get e-mailed to the officall's real e-mail (but the e-mailing process will remain transparent to the end user)
[11:54] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> just so we are on the same page I ran it by going to the following menu: System -> Administration -> Hardware testing
[11:54] <gordonjcp> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: in related news, Your Computer Is Broadcasting An IP Address
[11:54] <Shoopuf> Thanks for reminding me, gonna open a LaunchPad account and submit hardware test results. :]
[11:55] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> gordonjcp: yes, but it's not broadcasting my CPUs UUID
[11:55] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: I've got the screen in front of my. it says "the following information will be sent to the launchpad hardware database, please provide the email address you use to sign into launchpad to submit this information". It then lists "distribution details, device information, processor information, packages installed, test results"
[11:55] <gordonjcp> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: who cares?
[11:55] <jeeves__> microwaver, is what I'm looking for a dooable thing?
[11:55] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> many people who care about privacy
[11:55] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: this pretty clear what it's going to send
[11:55] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: then don't use the tool - it says what it is going to send
[11:55] <Shoopuf> the privacy zealots wouldnt be interested in submitting hardware information
[11:55] <gordonjcp> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: can you give a specific example of why that would be a privacy problem?
[11:55] <boudewijn> I'm installing ubuntu-desktop on my server because I can't work with command line. Now it's been stuck on the line "* Reloading system log daemon..." for well over an hour. Is this normal?
[11:56] <djhash> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: then dont SEND IT.. just do the tests and then close the program
[11:56] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> anyway, I've asked my question and I've noted that some people might be concerned
[11:56] <ikonia> no-one is
[11:56] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> so anyway, do you know me?
[11:57] <djhash> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: none of this information is a privacy concern.
[11:57] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> ikonia, do you know me personally?
[11:57] <gordonjcp> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: why would people be concerned?
[11:57] <gordonjcp> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: I do
[11:57] <gordonjcp> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: do you know me personally?
[11:57] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> gordonjcp: I know *you* do, but then you didn't ask my name publicly on the channel
[11:57] <ikonia> tuna-fish: not at all
[11:57] <ikonia> oops
[11:58] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: nope, I don't know you, should I ?
[11:58] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> ah... well, it's pretty much open knowledge
[11:58] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> you asked if my name was Chris Sherlock
[11:58] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> which it is
[11:58] <Shoopuf> Take it to off-topic, guys. :P
[11:58] <gordonjcp> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: well, personally is stretching it, but we both know where we know each other from
[11:58] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> Shoopuf, a good idea
[11:58] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu: I suggest this conversation stops as it is nothing to do with support and as noted it's taking the channel off topic
[11:58] <M1DLG> how do I get wine to use my serial port correctly?
[11:58] <Shoopuf> M1DLG: /join #winehq
[11:59] <M1DLG> ta
[11:59] <M1DLG> will do
[11:59] <M1DLG> lol
[11:59] <ta_bu_shi_da_yu> ikonia - indeed - about as on-topic as asking my real name
[11:59] <ikonia> ta_bu_shi_da_yu I asked your real name to see if you where the guy asking the quetion on launhapd
[12:00] <Duesentrieb> any clues for this error? svnversion: error while loading shared libraries: libsvn_subr-1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[12:00] <icqnumber> ikonia, you have added one more layout in system->preference->keyboard and it works fine till i restart the box, do i need to add in manually in xorg file and replace for axample "en" with "en,de"?

[12:03] <icqnumber> i have added one more layout in system->preference->keyboard and it works fine till i restart the box, do i need to add in manually in xorg file and replace for example "en" with "en,de"? is it a bug?
[12:04] <lucio> Musli: NFS not NTFS
[12:04] <nullie> hello, can anyone point me to article, how in ubuntu can I setup automatic settings of cpufreq governor when running on ac power?

[12:31] <rsys> anabolix: just try to open one of those..
[12:31] <erUSUL> anabolix: for wmv and some avi you may need w32codecs too from medibuntu
[12:32] <erUSUL> !medibuntu | anabolix
[12:32] <rsys> arlbee: just download vmware from vmware site than install that.
[12:32] <db92> i just installed the new kernel ( ie 2.6.19) and at first it didnt work, i fixed xserver through recovery then continued normally, gdm booted and stuff, but now gnome just gets stuck on a white screen doing nothing. any ideas?
[12:32] <plouffe> rockenrola I don't knwo the exact model but the manual says 802.111b/g and it's a Toshiba A210 laptop
[12:32] <rsys> i'm using vmware workstation 6.04
[12:32] <rsys> I even not need vmware-any-any
[12:33] <erUSUL> plouffe: "lshw -C network" should tell you the exact model
[12:33] <peetonn> kernel 2.6.19 didnt work at me. so i load 2.6.18
[12:33] <erUSUL> db92: 2.6.19 is quite old .... what version of ubuntu ??
[12:33] <icqnumber>  i have added one more layout in system->preference->keyboard and it works fine till i restart the box, do i need to add in manually in xorg file and replace for example "en" with "en,de"? is it a bug?
[12:34] <rockenrola> plouffe: in the terminal "lshw |grep -i wi"
[12:34] <db92> erUSUL: um, tbh im not even sure it was 2.6.19 i tend to confuse the numbers when i try to remember them, but im on hardy heron
[12:34] <anabolix> thanks guys
[12:34] <anabolix> :D
[12:34] <plouffe> erUSUL: rockenrola it's an Atheros card AR242x
[12:34] <erUSUL> db92: ahh you mean 2.6.24-19
[12:34] <db92> erUSUL: if im not mistaken, by default i had the 16 one, not 19
[12:35] <db92> erUSUL: arg ye probly
[12:35] <erUSUL> db92: as opposed to 2.6.24-18
[12:35] <db92> erUSUL: ye im not used to this stuff yet i forget the numbers <<
[12:35] <erUSUL> db92: did you instaled graphic card with envy or the run from nvidia??
[12:35] <db92> erUSUL: well i had 2.6.24-16 by default
[12:35] <db92> envy
[12:35] <db92> and who said i have an nvidia card? >>
[12:35] <ikonia> !envy | db92
[12:36] <erUSUL> db92: you need to reinstall them everytime you change kernels
[12:36] <plouffe> rockenrola it's an Atheros card AR242x
[12:36] <DJones> plouffe: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaSatelliteA210-16F This suggests that there are issues with that card and the laptop testing team haven't managed to get it working
[12:36] <db92> erUSUL: a kk, but i need to get to boot somehow to start envyng to install the drivers right?
[12:36] <erUSUL> db92: that's the price you pay for using envy (or the run from nvidia or ati)
[12:36] <db92> erUSUL: how could i do that, failsafe gnome? :P
[12:36] <erUSUL> db92: yep fialsafe gnome
[12:36] <plouffe> DJones: I will have a look. Thanks
[12:36] <plouffe> grrr
[12:36] <db92> well not many alternatives last time i checked
[12:38] <plouffe> Different question (probably ignorant one: What's firewire?
[12:39] <greppy> hmmm nvidia question.... in X, if I do glxinfo | grep direct, it tells me that there is no direct rendering support.  When I do DISPLAY=:0 glxinfo | grep direct, there is.  Any idea on how to shut off the second x server and just use DISPLAY=:0.0?

[12:54] <monitor> ok
[12:54] <monitor> thx
[12:54] <ikonia> Darkside: the debs arn't used once they are installed
[12:54] <Darkside> i.e. could i put them wherever apt-get stores its deb files?
[12:54] <Darkside> ikonia: ahh
[12:54] <monitor> i had a hard drive on an old server
[12:54] <Darkside> now, will i be able to search for the package name somehow?
[12:54] <monitor> i had a problem to start it
[12:54] <ikonia> Darkside: it will show up in dpkg -l once is't installed
[12:54] <Darkside> i.e. i normally use apt-cache search to find packages, but that wont work if i use dpkg -i
[12:54] <Darkside> okeydoke :)

[12:56] <atakan33> aloo
[12:56] <Xavura> totally wrong network
[12:56] <monitor> i oplugged the driver then i restart the server
[12:56] <ikonia> monitor: hot plug doesnt work great on motherboard connections, normally things like usb
[12:56] <effi> can someone explain me, why i cannot watch videos on youtube and other flash videos???
[12:56] <monitor> i know
[12:56] <Furnace> ikonia : the enabling restricted drivers thing restricted me to 800x600 and won;t allow me to enable desktop effects
[12:56] <atakan33> türkooooo
[12:56] <ikonia> Furnace: did you debug it - or just blindly run and use envy ?
[12:56] <monitor> the server was off when i plugged the drive
[12:56] <monitor> and i have ubunto installe din the other drive
[12:57] <Furnace> ikonia : i tried, using my limited skills...
[12:57] <djhash> monitor: type everything in ONE line.. dont press enter untill you finish talking about ur problem.
[12:57] <monitor> ok
[12:57] <effi> can someone explain me, why i cannot watch videos on youtube and other flash videos?
[12:57] <ikonia> Furnace: it's pretty hard to support you once you use envy
[12:57] <ikonia> effi: have you got the flashplugin-nonfree package installed ?
[12:57] <effi> ikonia, i dont know
[12:58] <effi> ikonia, im actually very new to ubuntu
[12:58] <ikonia> effi: open your package manager and install the flashplugin-nonfree package
[12:58] <Furnace> okay.. i'll switch back to the proprotery driver and come back in a minute
[12:58] <Furnace> *proprietry (or whatever the spelling is)
[12:58] <ikonia> Furnace: doesn't matter
[12:58] <ikonia> Furnace: envy changes your system
[12:58] <ikonia> Furnace: it's hard to support you once you've used envy

[12:59] <schmrz> effi: check in synaptic if u have it installed...
[12:59] <Furnace> ikonia: so, does that mean i'll have to reinstall hardy to undo the damage?
[12:59] <effi> schmrz, in synaptic it is installed, at least i cant download it, i only can mark it to redownload it once again
[13:00] <djhash> have you restarted firefox since the installation?!
[13:00] <db92> how can i force a different refresh rate for my monitor?
[13:00] <schmrz> effi: in that case it's installed.
[13:00] <effi> schmrz, nevertheless i cannot watch videos on youtube
[13:00] <ikonia> Furnace: or you can find someone who is more willing to support it
[13:00] <schmrz> effi: which browser do u use?
[13:00] <effi> schmrz, firefox
[13:01] <ikonia> effi: please show me the output of dpkg -l | grep flashplugin-nonfree

[13:04] <JuzzyD> Evening folks. Got a question about the Huawei e220 if anyone is familiar with it?
[13:05] <ikonia> effi: that should be fine to work once you've restarted firefox
[13:05] <anonwtfok> i got it to beep in her sound setting tho......

[13:06] <anonwtfok> i have a problem with that
[13:06] <gabbs> heya - I am trying to install the openvz kernel image that I just baked, but I am getting dependency problems with the linux-header-*-openvz.deb - its asking for the linux-header-2.6.24-20 package, that I can't find
[13:06] <gabbs> anyone got an idea what I could do about that or what I am missing?
[13:06] <JuzzyD> If anyone has experience with the e220, I plug it in, start VMC, and it says it can't connect with the device.
[13:07] <JuzzyD> So I unplug the device, and plug it back in. It works, which is fantastic. Then when I inplug it and plug it back in a third time, It thinks the e220 is an e270.
[13:08] <trupheenix> how do u set albumart in rhythm box?
[13:08] <JuzzyD> So by the time I restart the notebook, plug the modem in, unplug, re connect and finally connect, my train trip is almost over as you can imagine.
[13:08] <incorrect> what happened to the alternative installation cd?
[13:09] <djhash> incorrect: you can still download it.. just make sure you click on the alternate CD at the ubuntu download page
[13:09] <incorrect> ah there it is
[13:09] <vins> can someone give me the name of italian support channel for ubuntu? thank you
[13:09] <djhash> !it
[13:09] <Pici> vins: #ubuntu-it
[13:10] <incorrect> i thought the installer was going to include a lvm/encryption and software raid ?
[13:11] <anabolix> hey guys, where do i get the nvidia manager?
[13:11] <ikonia> anabolix: it's already installed
[13:11] <ikonia> anabolix: system -> administration -> hardware drivers
[13:12] <JuzzyD> !torrent
[13:12] <JuzzyD> That's the result I was hoping for!
[13:12] <anabolix> ikonia: yea i know about that one, but i just formated my computer for dual boot windows and ubuntu, and im trying to get back all that i had... anyways, there is i think a 3rd party manager
[13:13] <ikonia> anabolix: why do you want a 3rd party manaager
[13:13] <ikonia> anabolix: what's wrong with the hardware drivers interface
[13:14] <anabolix> because it gives me all the options i need
[13:14] <ikonia> such as ?
[13:14] <Shoopuf> I double clicked the "Volume Control" in the panel and 3 verticle sliders appeared for CD, Microp, and Speaker. Whenever I touch *any* of the sliders they just start jumping to maximum up maximum down, bouncin back and forth like that until i let go of the mouse.
[13:15] <anabolix> well, i have'nt really tried the default till now... and from what i see there are no options
[13:15] <anabolix> it just says, what drivers im using
[13:15] <ikonia> anabolix: what options do you need ?

[13:21] <Shoopuf> I double clicked the "Volume Control" in the panel and 3 verticle sliders appeared for CD, Microp, and Speaker.  Well, so far I found that nothing that I need to work are working in Ubuntu, the email tool (Evolution) is always crashing, hanging, and it doesn't even have autocomplete for the destination email adresses,.. the VPN comnnection works whenever the system wants, etc.. so, how is supposed that the people wo want to keep working fo rtheir companies and using linux can go on with t
[13:22] <chakir> hise??? All these is forcing me to go back to Xp,
[13:23] <dsop> are interprid packages supposed to move over to -updates archives or not?
[13:23] <Pici> dsop: No.
[13:23] <dsop> Pici: so there is no chance to see subversion 1.5 in hardy?
[13:23] <Pici> dsop: Ubuntu is not on a rolling release cycle akin to the way Debian does things.
[13:23] <utonto> lampe, kpowersave
[13:24] <Pici> dsop: Unless its filed as a backport, no.
[13:24] <remoteCTR1> ikonia: do you also happen to use drbd?
[13:24] <dsop> Pici: k thx
[13:24] <ikonia> remoteCTR1: no

[13:25] <chakir> djhash, I have been for 2 hours posting my problem, and no tesponse yet
[13:25] <chakir> djhash, I have been for 2 hours posting my problem, and no tesponse yet
[13:25] <chakir> I have been using a VPN connection the last days without any problem, today I went to network manager to connect to the VPN and I can't, the system jsu says htere was a problem with the connection, but I can  ping the server, and I restarted in XP and I was able to establish a VPN connection, please help?
[13:25] <utonto> I have the scrolling button of my laptop touchpad working the other way round. is there a way to change this behaviour?
[13:26] <djhash> chakir: are you currently in ubuntu?
[13:26] <KoolD> please help!! conky works well when i start it manually but begins blocking other windows when it starts with system startup...
[13:26] <chakir> djhash, yes I am, actually is wubi
[13:27] <djhash> chakir: i'm not familiar with wubi's installation.. and I can't just assume that the way it is installed is similiar to the regular ubuntu installation..
[13:28] <chakir> djhash, yesterday the VPN connection was wroking properly, I haven't done any changes in the system, but todays it doesn't
[13:28] <chakir> djhash, I restarted to XP, and I connected to VPN to the server, and it worked, so the server is ON
[13:28] <chakir> djhash, I went back to Ubuntu, and it desn't work, it says that the modem unged up
[13:29] <esox> Hi, I have issues to make my scanner epson 2450 photo run with xsane, it says "Failure.....monitor-button: device busy" (translation from french)
[13:29] <chakir> djhash, how is it possible that without making any changes from yesterday to date a tool doesn't work¿????
[13:29] <djhash> chakir: you probably are having a modem issue with ubuntu..
[13:29] <djhash> chakir:  is it a dialup modem?
[13:30] <chakir> djhash, but there is no modem...I'm connected thru LAN, and it is working fine sin I hace access to internet, I'm chating with you now, and I can make do a ping to the VPN gateway without any problem!
[13:30] <guardian> hi, can someone remind me the command line to see whether or not a package is installed ?
[13:30] <esox> someone to help with xsane ?
[13:31] <chakir> djhash, is som kind of issue with Network Manager
[13:31] <Flynsarmy> I bound scale compiz plugin 'initiate window picker' to super+e. it works fine when i press eht ecombination but if i hold it down for like 2 seconds the screen darkens and e's start appearing in a text field at the center of the screen. ideas?
[13:31] <IdleOne> guardian, apt-cache policy package-name
[13:31] <XChat> I cant put pidgin to work. When I'm connect to the web it shutdowns, and when im not connected it runs just fine. Any ideas?
[13:32] <chakir> djhash, that's why I'm so angry, I was happy to be able to work in Linux, I like it, but I'm checking that it's unestable, I can't trust on it, I have several iissues with Evolution as well, anyway
[13:32] <rbt137> previous version of ubuntu mounted all volumes found on internal hd.  new version does not mount the volume (NTFS: XP) and when I attempt to mount it error claims I'm not privileged to mount the volume
[13:32] <chakir> djhash, sorry not Linux, the APPS for Linux
[13:33] <ZeroQ> hola se puede hablar en castellano aqui?
[13:33] <chakir> in fact, I need to check my Exchange server mail, as the 75% of the companies, and the only tool I found is Evolution, which is not working properly, ti hangs, it crashes, no ppublic contact list, etc..
[13:34] <Pici> !br | ZeroQ
[13:34] <m1r> chakir: i dont think many people here use wubi
[13:34] <Pici> m1r: You'd be surprised.
[13:34] <Shoopuf> I double clicked the "Volume Control" in the panel and 3 verticle sliders appeared for CD, Microp, and Speaker. Whenever I touch *any* of the sliders they just start jumping to maximum up maximum down, bouncin back and forth like that until i let go of the mouse. So, I basically can't use my volume control. Any ideas?
[13:34] <chakir> mlr, but WUbi is Ubuntu right?
[13:34] <utonto> hello
[13:35] <sja> hello, all! anybody use webcam genius eye312 ? in can't search drivers.. help please!
[13:35] <lampe> hello
[13:35] <m1r> Pici: hmm , then not much talk about it ?
[13:35] <Shoopuf> i installed by making a partition and installing from CD, never tried Wubi
[13:35] <chakir> Well, Wubi makes the same
[13:35] <Pici> m1r: Perhaps it all happens when you aren't looking
[13:35] <chakir> I have a boot loaader too
[13:35] <m1r> Pici: :)
[13:36] <lampe> i got a ipod classic with 160gb how can i can copy music on it ?
[13:36] <gabbs> linux-headers-2.6.24-20-openvz depends on linux-headers-2.6.24-20 however Package linux-headers-2.6.24-20 is not installed.
[13:36] <gabbs> how can I build the linux-header ?
[13:36] <IdleOne> !ipod | lampe
[13:36] <lampe> !ipod
[13:37] <sja> hello, all! anybody use webcam genius eye312 ? in can't search drivers.. help please!
[13:37] <chakir> I use Wubi jsut to test that in the future I can move completly to a Ubuntu system, but from now I'm gettting a very bad opinion
[13:37] <lampe> thx
[13:38] <m1r> chakir: try reconfigure your vpn conection on network manager and see what hapens ?
[13:38] <Pici> gabbs: Where do you see linux-headers-2.6.24-20-openvz? I dont have that package available to me.
[13:38] <chakir> mlr, I've done that, I deleted it, and I created it again..but nothing, it says that the modem at th eother side hanged up¿?¿
[13:39] <gabbs> Pici, I built it from git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu-hardy.git openvz
[13:39] <pen> anyone know why nautilus can't refresh?
[13:39] <m1r> chakir: i dont use wubi, but my vpn here works without any problems for long time now, i can only sugest u reconfigure vpn or try reinstall vpn package.
[13:39] <pen> sometimes when I do some renaming or symlinks, nautilus won't show the correct output
[13:39] <iari__> Does Anyone know a good GUI/Graphing plugin for Nagios?
[13:40] <BoltClock> pen: clicking reload doesnt work either?
[13:40] <pen> Bollinger, reload?
[13:40] <Pici> gabbs: You probably should ask about that in #ubuntu-kernel then, since you build the package yourself off of something not yet available in the repositories
[13:40] <chakir> mlr, I was using it properly too, that's why I wonder wth happened  from yesterday noght when I shut down the computer to date when I switched it on again
[13:40] <IdleOne> gabbs, install linux-headers-2.6.24-20
[13:40] <pen> BoltClock, reload?
[13:40] <pen> BoltClock, what do you mean
[13:40] <BoltClock> pen: there's a reload button on the navigation bar
[13:41] <gabbs> IdleOne, apt-get doesn't find them
[13:41] <BoltClock> pen: or you can press ctrl+R
[13:41] <IdleOne> gabbs, yeah I see that now
[13:41] <BoltClock> pen: it happens for me too, sometimes nautilus just doesnt refresh automatically
[13:41] <XChat> is there another chat program, instead of pidgin, that runs on linux and supports msn accounts?
[13:41] <BoltClock> pen: doing that or closing/reopening the window does the trick though
[13:41] <gabbs> Pici, actually I built it straight from the repository
[13:41] <IdleOne> !msn | XChat
[13:41] <pen> BoltClock, oh, I haven't. Like if I use sudo nautilus, then chaning the file name will give different name under terminal
[13:42] <pen> BoltClock, feels like nautilus doesn't really changing the name
[13:42] <pen> BoltClock, is that what you experienced?
[13:42] <BoltClock> pen: i dont do sudo nautilus
[13:42] <guardian> IdleOne: thank you
[13:42] <pen> BoltClock, then what did you use? just terminal?
[13:42] <BoltClock> pen: i guess
[13:43] <pen> BoltClock, well, sometimes I prefer gui
[13:43] <BoltClock> pen: for basic stuff i just go on using the gui though
[13:43] <BoltClock> pen: im not sure about running it as root
[13:43] <pen> BoltClock, I was tring to change my default cursor
[13:43] <djhash> chakir: just like windows and everysingle other os in the planet.. during the boot process somethings might not have loaded in the proper order or a very small fault in hardware could've ended up in a certain module not loading properly... If shutting the computer down and then starting caused the problem.. then maybe restarting will fix it.. if not.. then reinstallation would be a good option..
[13:43] <pen> BoltClock, and apprently update-alternatives is not working properly
[13:43] <Shoopuf> I double clicked the "Volume Control" in the panel and 3 verticle sliders appeared for CD, Microp, and Speaker. Whenever I touch *any* of the sliders they just start jumping to maximum up maximum down, bouncin back and forth like that until i let go of the mouse. So, I basically can't use my volume control. Any ideas? Or is there some text file I can edit to at least get my volume at 100% or something? The Volume sliders are completely unusable.
[13:44] <pen> BoltClock, it deletes the symlink to /usr/share/icons/default
[13:44] <pen> BoltClock, I'm really confused.
[13:44] <bullgard4> [GNOME] Pressing Applications > System Tools > 'Report a Problem...' does not open any window. How to fix this?
[13:44] <BoltClock> pen: well... so am i
[13:45] <chakir> djhash, I'm really thinking in formating and installing a complete Ubuntu system instead of this .."whatever".. called "Wubi", just one big think is keeping me stick on XP partition: the email managing
[13:45] <ne2k__> Shoopuf: you could try the command-line program aumix
[13:45] <djhash> chakir: what email system do you use at work? Exchange or something else?
