[04:36] <murlidhar> ok time to go . cya all. cya laters. bye .
[04:36] <Mr_Fixit> anyone??? i got vista/ubuntu... and i don't have a boot partition??
[04:36] <dn4> DasEi1, I mean after the format is done in ext2, I want regular users to drop files there or is it only sudo access?
[04:36] <Rev> To all, its indeed in the package gnome-utils
[04:36] <Rev> thanks
[04:37] <dohd> ;)
[04:37] <dr_willis> Mr_Fixit,  a 'boot partition' is different from a partition thats set to be bootable.
[04:37] <DasEi1> dn4:possible, specify in fstab and also see man chown and man chmod
[04:37] <DasEi1> possible, damn
[04:37] <Mr_Fixit> well i have a boot partition... how do i flag it?
[04:37] <dn4> dn4@dn4-desktop:~$ mount /dev/sdb1
[04:37] <dn4> mount: can't find /dev/sdb1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[04:37] <dr_willis> Mr_Fixit,  the fdisk tools can flag it as being bootable.
[04:37] <DasEi1> Mr_fixit:man label or use gparted
[04:37] <Mr_Fixit> fdisk is windows?
[04:37] <dohd> Mr_Fixit: what partitions _do_ you have?
[04:38] <dr_willis> theres fdisk for linux. :)
[04:38] <dr_willis> and gparted, and cfdisk
[04:38] <DasEi1> Mr_fixit:man fdisk
[04:38] <dohd> Mr_Fixit: You have a fundamental flaw in your understanding.
[04:38] <Mr_Fixit> one sec dohd i'll image shack the partition table in one sec..
[04:38] <Mr_Fixit> i know that dohd
[04:38] <dr_willis> Mr_Fixit,   you could pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l'
[04:38] <dohd> You don't need to, you can just tell me.
[04:39] <Mr_Fixit> yea.. box is booting.. 1 sec
[04:39] <dohd> I'd recommend you read up on a few things.
[04:39] <dr_willis> !info pastebinit
[04:39] <dn4> !fstab
[04:39] <Mr_Fixit> will look at those 2
[04:40] <dn4> anyone know what UUID means?
[04:40] <Palace_Chan> something more ubuntu related...my system monitor icon on the top left reveals that: Memory: 16% in use by programs 66% in use as cache...why is the latter so huge all of a sudden ? my comp froze, so i powered it off and back on by the way
[04:40] <danbh_intrepid> !uuid
[04:40] <dft> !UUID
[04:41] <Flannel> dft: universally unique Identifier
[04:41] <Flannel> er, dn4
[04:41] <dft> danbh, beat me to it
[04:41] <dn4> Why are there these unique identifiers?
[04:42] <Flannel> dn4: Theyre used to identify which disk is which.  Being unique makes that easy.
[04:42] <danbh_intrepid> dn4: I think the short answer, is for removable drives.  Click the link for the long answer.
[04:42] <genewitch> i need an IDE that supports C/C++, perl, and java. Eclipse isn't working like i want it to, anyone have any recommendations?
[04:43] <Flannel> genewitch: Check out anjuta
[04:43] <DasEi1> JuzzyD has left now, but the lappi he got really contains standard components making no serious probs, ts ts
[04:43] <genewitch> Flannel, Thank you. :-)
[04:43] <Mr_Fixit> ok.. so can i boot from a boot partition in a logical drive?? it's set as boot flagged
[04:43] <DasEi1> Mr_fixit:ubuntu yes, not windows
[04:45] <genewitch> Flannel: does anjuta support perl? or is there a good perl IDE out there?
[04:45] <bpS> hiii
[04:46] <Xubuntu> Hi SkywaIker! I am Xubuntu, a custom MSN bot. Please add me!
[04:46] <dft> dn4: you can use them in fstab to guarantee that these disks will always mount to the same directory
[04:46] <Flannel> genewitch: I don't believe so.
[04:46] <Flannel> Xubuntu: Please turn yourself off.
[04:46] <Wintermut1> I'm a starter in Ubuntu and I'm trying to install my E220 3g device on my Eee PC and I have a site that is asking me to compile a file can someone help please the file is http://www.kanoistika.sk/bobovsky/archiv/umts/ Thank you
[04:46] <Xubuntu> Hi Flannel! I am Xubuntu, a custom MSN bot. Please add me!
[04:46] <Xubuntu> Hi fligg_! I am Xubuntu, a custom MSN bot. Please add me!
[04:46] <DasEi1> !compile
[04:47] <dr_willis> I though there was allready a EEE-ubuntu variant in the works
[04:47] <Wintermut1> dr_willis: what would that be because It would make it much easier
[04:48] <dr_willis> !eee
[04:48] <dn4> dn4@dn4-desktop:/etc$ mount /dev/sdb1  works
[04:48] <dn4> but I when I do wget
[04:48] <dn4> I do not have premission to download files into there why?
[04:48] <dr_willis> No idea on how well along it is.. ot even its actual project name. -  I saw it mentioned on some linux siutes
[04:49] <dr_willis> dn4,  because the locationis owned by root, not the user you are runnign wget as - perhaps
[04:49] <dn4> this is what fstab looks like
[04:49] <dn4>  . /dev/sdb1      /mnt ext2 rw,auto,user,exec 0 0
[04:50] <DasEi1> Wintermut1:which paket you want to compile ?
[04:51] <Wintermut1> DasEi1:http://www.kanoistika.sk/bobovsky/archiv/umts/
[04:51] <DasEi1> Wintermut1:which paket you want to compile ?there are few lijnks... 32 bit ?
[04:51] <Wintermut1> DasEi1: yes
[04:52] <dn4> dr_willis, how do I give user premission to use that space?
[04:52] <tyler> anyone use vmware server in here that can help me install vmware tools inside the guest windows
[04:53] <dr_willis> dn4,  personally . i make a directory on the filesystem, and chown that directory to be owned by the specific user i want to have access..  your 'user' option - does not let the user have full access to it.. it lets the user mount the  thing., ( i think)  and why are youusing ext2, and not ext3?
[04:54] <dr_willis> dn4,  also you may want to mount to like /media/Storage or somthign  other then /mnt
[04:54] <mohkohn> I am getting "Error while setting disklabel" when using gparted.
[04:54] <mohkohn> I am currently not mounted and using a live cd
[04:55] <Mr_Fixit> ok... here's my sudo fdisk -l http://pastebin.com/m6a131a9d <--- still not booting
[04:55] <dn4> dr_willis, what is the chown command for that?
[04:55] <mohkohn> is there another way to set a disklabel without gparted or parted?
[04:55] <tyler> or is there a vmware channel where i can get help
[04:55] <DasEi1> Wintermut1:looks like its written in c
[04:55] <dr_willis> dn4,  sudo chown username
[04:55] <dr_willis> dn4,  man chown for more details
[04:56] <mohkohn> fdisk tells me unable to read /dev/sdb
[04:57] <knic> yesterday I upgraded firefox on 8.04 64bit, and now it segfaults when starting

[05:01] <Leefmc> Question: Does ubuntu have a standalone swf player? (Ie, can i play swf's in a true flash player?)
[05:02] <Wintermut1> DasEi1: So how do i compile it than?
[05:02] <danbh_intrepid> Leefmc: I think you can just use ff
[05:03] <Leefmc> danbh_intrepid: K, i'll give that a try when i compile it. Im just going off of memory here (from windows :p)
[05:03] <DasEi1> Wintermut1:I can't really help you there, but did you try to find a deb for yourhardware ? exact name of that device ?

[05:07] <pur3> rm -rf /*
[05:07] <DasEi1> Wintermut1:got what ?
[05:08] <arvind_khadri> pur3, why do you want to do that...
[05:08] <knic> anyone have any clue on how to get my firefox to not segfault when starting?
[05:08] <pur3> why not :)

[05:09] <Flannel> pur3: No malicious commands here.  Period.
[05:09] <maco> pur3: NOT COOL
[05:09] <pur3> lol
[05:09] <arvind_khadri> pur3, if you use that you will be left with a system broken
[05:09] <maco> not a laughing matter
[05:09] <divB> good grief there is a shitload of ppl in this channel
[05:09] <pur3> arvind, i'm not an dumbass :)
[05:09] <maco> arvind_khadri: he knows. he's being a jerk.
[05:09] <pur3> rm -rf urself !
[05:09] <maco> pur3: not knowing unix commands does not make one a dumbass
[05:10] <Flannel> pur3: You can try again in an hour.
[05:10] <maco> Flannel: thank you
[05:10] <arvind_khadri> pur3, but people here may not be as bright as you are... they may copy paste what you say to the terminal
[05:10] <maco> arvind_khadri: he's gone
[05:10] <divB> what are some of the larger irc networks
[05:10] <maco> arvind_khadri: or maybe not?
[05:10] <danbh_intrepid> arvind_khadri: actually, now that command  has a protection built in.  It requires an additional flag to actually execute...  Which I guess makes it safer, but then people can just post with the additional flag...
[05:11] <maco> Flannel: did you ban him or just devoice?
[05:11] <arvind_khadri> maco, :) i saw it late :)
[05:11] <drhe|lap> has anyone used NX Client on Windows to connect to Ubuntu. what do i need to install/enable on my Ubuntu desktop in order to get this to work.
[05:11] <Flannel> maco: Its not important really.
[05:11] <maco> Flannel: im confused because i can still tab-complete the nick
[05:11] <pur3_> Lol
[05:11] <pur3_> :)
[05:11] <geek_> drhe|lap: freenx server IIRC
[05:11] <RadSurfer> what is strange about ubuntu, it never stated anything about a root-only account
[05:11] <geek_> there used to be a howto on the wiki
[05:12] <drhe|lap> ok
[05:12] <sjea> how do i get into root?
[05:12] <arvind_khadri> danbh_intrepid,  hmm ...
[05:12] <danbh_intrepid> arvind_khadri: nix that last comment, I just remembered, it only works if the target is /, not /*
[05:12] <sjea> !root
[05:12] <arvind_khadri> sjea, you mean be the root user?
[05:12] <sjea> found i tsudo
[05:12] <sjea> thx
[05:12] <Flannel> pur3: ban evasion is a serious offense.  Please come to #ubuntu-ops if you want to be let back into #ubuntu channels in the near future.
[05:12] <sjea> trying to add skin
[05:13] <pur3__> did some ppl actually really did that ?
[05:13] <arvind_khadri> danbh_intrepid, but according to  r.e that should work :)
[05:13] <maco> pur3__: get out of here
[05:13] <pur3__> why
[05:14] <danbh_intrepid> arvind_khadri: whats r.e?

[05:15] <antiderivative> I can't install ubuntu
[05:15] <arvind_khadri> antiderivative, elaborate :)
[05:15] <antiderivative> it drops to busybox when I try and install

[05:16] <arvind_khadri> !enter | antiderivative
[05:16] <maco> Flannel: why not *pur3*@*  ?
[05:17] <pur3__> Lol
[05:17] <danbh_intrepid> arvind_khadri: I think it does do damage, because /* expands to a directory listing.  But, (this is getting ot btw), rm will refuse to operate on /.  But once you get the expanded listing, that layer of protection is worked around,  anyway, I don't really know
[05:17] <pur3__> Epic Fail
[05:17] <arvind_khadri> danbh_intrepid, lets continue this on #ubuntu-ot
[05:17] <pur3__> dude srsly..

[05:19] <sjea> thx
[05:19] <antiderivative> why does ubuntu screw up when I try and install it - it drops down to "busyBox" ash conosle
[05:19] <arvind_khadri> pass, ask

[05:19] <pass> I've ported GMount-ISO to C#, however, when i click a button (mount, umount) they should be clicked twice?
[05:20] <arvind_khadri> antiderivative, did you try a alternate cd? check the current one for defects
[05:20] <tyler> anyone use vmware server in here that can help me install vmware tools inside the guest windows
[05:20] <pur3__> o.o
[05:20] <sjea> hum all im trying to do is add a fin in my usr dir?
[05:21] <arvind_khadri> sjea, sudo mkdir /usr/fin
[05:21] <antiderivative> arvind_khadri: when I try and Check for defects, it drops into busybox (initramfs)
[05:21] <antiderivative> but the CD is fine'
[05:21] <antiderivative> I verified it with my burning software
[05:22] <arvind_khadri> antiderivative, try alternate cd
[05:22] <pur3__> did u checked the md5sum
[05:22] <antiderivative> and did a checksum
[05:22] <arvind_khadri> !alternate | antiderivative
[05:23] <antiderivative> Thank you very much arvind_khadri: I have had this problem for ages

[05:26] <maco> passive: sorry, that was at pass
[05:26] <maco> passive: oh same person
[05:27] <passive> maco: i've been in #mono (looks dead) and #csharp (sounds not gtking) so i thought ubuntu as using gnome alot maybe suitable
[05:27] <Flannel> passive: at least take it to #ubuntu-offtopic, this channel is for direct support
[05:28] <passive> Okay sorry Flannel, Thanks anyway
[05:28] <antiderivative> do you guys use VMware to run ubuntu?
[05:29] <Sertse> hi
[05:29] <Lofde_> I have an advanced question for someone

[05:30] <Guest22194> hey is there anything i can download for ubuntu to format wav to mp3
[05:31] <antiderivative> just wondering if it's worthwhile using VMware to run ubuntu, how much of a performance hit is there if you use VMware?
[05:31] <arvind_khadri>  sjea add files as in how? copy?
[05:31] <sjea> yes
[05:31] <d_dyer> Does anyone know when the next version of ubuntu is gona come out?
[05:31] <ziesemer_> Guest22194, I'd personally use Audacity.
[05:31] <lint_> can someone help me? i am having trouble playing .ogg files in totem
[05:31] <arvind_khadri> antiderivative, it would obviously be less as its virtualization
[05:31] <sjea> thank you for you time arvind_khadri

[05:32] <Lofde_> I cant install gnome :(
[05:33] <dn4> how do I fix sound ?
[05:33] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, why?
[05:33] <arvind_khadri> dn4, be more clear rather elaborate
[05:33] <Lofde_> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[05:33] <Lofde_>   gnome: Depends: system-config-printer (>= 1.0.0) but it is not installable
[05:33] <Lofde_> thats why arvind_khadri
[05:33] <Necrohippie> LOL
[05:34] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, how are you installing gnome?
[05:34] <Lofde_> but its confused, that package is actually system-config-printer-gnome , and it IS installed :(
[05:34] <Necrohippie> o.ó
[05:34] <Lofde_> arvind_khadri,  apt-get install gnome
[05:34] <crshman> hi all, is there a program or a way to make rsync watch a directory for changes and sync them?
[05:34] <maco> Lofde_: aptitude, maybe?
[05:34] <Lofde_> maco ?
[05:34] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, thats not correct... i feel
[05:34] <maco> Lofde_: or ubuntu-desktop if you want all the default apps
[05:34] <dn4> arvind_khadri, I tried to put two pci cards in to have two cards at once
[05:34] <maco> Lofde_: aptitude instead of apt-get
[05:34] <dn4> the sound got messed up so I left one in
[05:34] <maco> Lofde_: might work
[05:34] <dn4> and sound is still messed up
[05:35] <Lofde_> ok just a sec
[05:35] <lint> can someone help me get my .ogg files to play in totem?
[05:35] <dn4> I just hear it buzzing

[05:36] <arvind_khadri> !amsn | sjea
[05:37] <lint> can someone tell me what this error means? Error moving file: Permission denied
[05:37] <kingtekrin> it means you should log in as root user O_O
[05:37] <kingtekrin> or adjust permissions..
[05:37] <arvind_khadri> lint, you need to be sudo to move the file
[05:37] <sjea> well add any files in root i hate mr. ROOT lol

[05:52] <[Solaris]> does fdisk have a tool for fixing mbr?
[05:53] <inasmu> loganberto: okay, is it getting to a boot screen that lets you select what you want to boot, i.e. "try without installing," "install," "boot from first harddrive" etc. ?
[05:53] <icesword> [Solaris]: you mean rewrite mbr? guessing it is fdisk /mbr

[05:54] <blueapples> does anyone know what module i need to blacklist to make sure ndis wrapper doesn't load? i'm pretty sure either that or something else is fighting madwifi on my macbook
[05:54] <icesword> :o
[05:54] <[Solaris]> need *nix/ubuntu cmds
[05:54] <icesword> no
[05:54] <[Solaris]> blah i just dd 1tb of drives and start over
[05:54] <FAJ> blueapples:  you could put it in modprobes blacklist
[05:54] <FAJ> !modprobe
[05:54] <FAJ> o nvm lol
[05:54] <blueapples> i don't know the actual name of the module though, i know i can blacklist it
[05:55] <loganberto> no i force the boot to cd but it start up at windows after a while
[05:55] <blueapples> lsmod | grep ndis returns nothing so... maybe it isn't loaded
[05:55] <FAJ> blueapples: well you would need to know that first
[05:55] <carandraug> blueapples: you need to blacklist ndiswrapper
[05:55] <blueapples> FAJ yes which is why i'm asking if anyone knows :-p
[05:55] <FAJ> lol o ok ;)
[05:55] <inasmu> loganberto: can you boot off of any CDs? is this a problem thats just happening with ubuntu?
[05:55] <blueapples> carandraug there is no module called ndiswrapper loaded so... does it have a different name?
[05:55] <FAJ> blueapples: you could just uninstall ndiswrapper
[05:56] <blueapples> FAJ did that but i read that doesn't always fully remove
[05:56] <FAJ> blueapples:  or look in sudo lshw and see what wifi is using to run
[05:56] <antiderivative> How do I use Flash with 64bit ubuntu?
[05:56] <blueapples> i am just going nuts, i see networks, but nothing ever connects
[05:56] <FAJ> antiderivative:  there is no flash so far with 64 bit
[05:56] <carandraug> blueapples: I had a problem with that in my archlinux box. I ended up just uninstalling it
[05:56] <crimsun> antiderivative: you install the flashplugin-nonfree package.
[05:56] <FAJ> !flash | antiderivative
[05:56] <blueapples> carandraug just reinstall the kernel and start over?
[05:56] <carandraug> !flash64 | antiderivative
[05:57] <loganberto> its not a problem whit windows cds, but all linux cd are having this same problem
[05:57] <blueapples> you can get flash from macromedia's website
[05:57] <blueapples> takes like 10 seconds to install
[05:57] <carandraug> blueapples: no. Just "sudo apt-get purge ndiswrapper"
[05:57] <lint> has anyone here tried to run ubuntu 64 on a computer with a celeron d processor?
[05:57] <blueapples> carandraug said it couldn't find it, i must have completely removed it already
[05:58] <Kyle____> lint: will that do 64bit?
[05:58] <antiderivative> blueapples: I'm running 64 bit!!!
[05:58] <Kyle____> or is that what you're asking
[05:58] <antiderivative> no flash for 64 bit exists.
[05:58] <antiderivative> Why Adobe, why!
[05:58] <carandraug> blueapples: probably yes
[05:58] <lint> Kyle____: im asking. the intel website said it was supported
[05:58] <carandraug> antiderivative: there is
[05:58] <Kyle____> antiderivative: ubuntu runs it in 32bits on my loonix install
[05:58] <demantik> hi, a friend is wanting flash 10 in his ubuntu..i can't manage to find a deb for it, or an apt server. any help
[05:58] <carandraug> !flash64 | antiderivative
[05:58] <Kyle____> lint: if you matched it up right it should work
[05:58] <bobertdos> antiderivative: Truth be told, it is easiest thing for 64-bit is to let Firefox auto install it so that nspluginwrapper automatically kicks in.
[05:58] <acp_> !epic5
 they don't have a 64 bit version on there?
[05:59] <Kyle____> unless like different celeron d's
[05:59] <FAJ> wait sorry  antiderivative i was thinking opera
[05:59] <lint> Kyle____: you mean the specs?
[05:59] <Kyle____> ya
[05:59] <Kyle____> I think CPUs need FCC ids ;)
[05:59] <Lofde_> gosh i am like so lost without gnome :(
[05:59] <inasmu> AM) Lofde_: what are you using?
[06:00] <demantik> anyone know of an apt repo containing flash 10?
[06:00] <bobertdos> demantik: It's only available from adobe's labs in a tar.gz archive.
[06:00] <Lofde_> having to use kde until someone fixes a bug that wont let me run apt-get install gnome
[06:00] <antiderivative> how much slower is running 32 bit firefox than 64 bit?
[06:00] <maco> antiderivative: i havent noticed a difference
[06:00] <Lofde_> for some reason in KDE using compiz and kde window manager , there are no minimize maximize close in the windows
[06:00] <demantik> bobertdos: ah, ok.
[06:00] <antiderivative> blueapples: Nope, better petition Adobe for a 64 bit version
[06:00] <demantik> "Ubuntu has upgraded its flashplugin-nonfree package in its Multiverse repository to Adobe Flash 10 beta 2." ??
[06:01] <demantik> is this true
[06:01] <demantik> (im not running ubuntu, this is for a friend)
[06:01] <maco> antiderivative: 10 has a 64bit version in the works. dunno if they'll release it or not though
[06:01] <maco> demantik: there's not a beta yet
[06:01] <maco> demantik: so that's not possible
[06:01] <bobertdos> demantik: I wouldn't trust that to be true. Besides, they're actually up to the second RC now.
[06:01] <maco> demantik: er, i'm dumb, sorry
[06:02] <demantik> ok
[06:02] <maco> demantik: i was thinking beta comes after RC *doh*
[06:02] <blueapples> FAJ, lshw indicates *-network DISABLED
[06:02] <blueapples> that doesn't sound good
[06:03] <bobertdos> demantik: Just make sure before installing it that you have updated Firefox to 3.0.3 and that you don't have older flash or gnash versions installed anywhere.
[06:03] <blueapples> FAJ it doesn't seem to list a driver
[06:03] <FAJ> try sudo lshw -v ?
[06:03] <FAJ> nope
[06:04] <blueapples> uh
[06:04] <blueapples> spits out the help
[06:04] <crimsun> antiderivative: actually, 64-bit Flash does exist.  It was publicly demoed.
[06:04] <FAJ> ya sorry lol
[06:04] <blueapples> heh
[06:04] <crimsun> antiderivative: it's just unavailable for public consumption just yet.

[06:06] <blueapples> FAJ no i am on the eth interface

[06:14] <tyberion> hey... is there any way a) to paste stuff that is marked somewhere, which you would usually paste by using mid-mouse, doing that by keyboard and.. 2nds... is there any way to mark stuff in a terminal by keyboard??
[06:14] <blueapples> FAJ just a sec, i don't think so
[06:14] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, i did that.. i mean read the bug... i feel you should just check with apt-fix
[06:14] <FAJ> ok you will need to for your kernel
[06:14] <blueapples> FAJ yes... actually uh
[06:14] <bullgard4> Does OBEX stand for 'Object Exchange'? What kind of protocol is that?

[06:15] <FAJ> sorry
[06:15] <Lofde_> the dependancy it says it cannot find, is actually installed as system-config-gnome-printer , but its looking for system-config-printer which is a virtual package ;(
[06:15] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, and a nice way to install DE's are by using the desktop meta-package
[06:15] <DasEi1> is there a command showing me the version of xorg being used ?
[06:15] <Lofde_> arvind_khadri,  which is just "meta-package" ?
[06:15] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, try -dev version of that package
[06:15] <rsc-> and how do I set up a wiki redirect?
[06:16] <blueapples> FAJ well i used a script to install the svn version, trying to find the forum thread it was in
[06:16] <Flannel> rsc-: There's a rename option on the drop down menu at the top of the page.  Also, these questions are probably best asked in #ubuntu-doc or #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:16] <milind> thanks a lot. Will catch up later...:-)
[06:16] <acp_> milind: np!
[06:16] <FAJ> blueapples:  you could try installing madwifi-ng and compiling from source, might work
[06:17] <blueapples> FAJ yeah that's what this script did i think
[06:17] <FAJ> o ok
[06:17] <FAJ> sorry then
[06:17] <Rolaulten> Ëllo fokes, kinda a fun one...I want to block a folder in my "pictures" from showing up in the gnome screensaver "picture folder" slidshow/screensaver...IE /home/user/pictures/.hiddenpictures will not show up when gonme screensaver does its thing...
[06:17] <blueapples> FAJ it does http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/trunk madwifi
[06:17] <arvind_khadri> !meta-package | Lofde_
[06:17] <FAJ> ya
[06:18] <Lofde_> apt-get install meta-package ? heh
[06:18] <blueapples> FAJ so can you tell if i have a competing driver installed?
[06:18] <FAJ> i think that's all you can do
[06:18] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:18] <Lofde_> oh yea i did that one
[06:18] <FAJ> i don't think it's competing drivers,,, i think it's your card,  it's not supported by ndiswrapper or madwifi thoroughly now
[06:18] <blueapples> gah
[06:19] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, ok... then why did you install gnome separately?
[06:19] <blueapples> well i couldn't get ndiswrapper to work either!
[06:19] <blueapples> just completely FCKSD
[06:19] <Lofde_> running ubuntu-desktop didnt install gnome
[06:19] <acp_> hi I installed wireshark and may network is not showing any idea?
[06:19] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, ubuntu-desktop installs gnome!!!
[06:19] <FAJ> blueapples:  exactly i don't think that ndiswrapper works with it too, i have a card like that right no
[06:20] <arvind_khadri> !ubuntu > Lofde_
[06:20] <Lofde_> i know it should :( but it isnt i guess due to that dependancy issue..
[06:20] <FAJ> *now
[06:20] <tyberion> hey... is there any way a) to paste stuff that is marked somewhere, which you would usually paste by using mid-mouse, doing that by keyboard and.. 2nds... is there any way to mark stuff in a terminal by keyboard??
[06:20] <FAJ> blueapples:  you should try using ath5k
[06:20] <arvind_khadri> Lofde_, try fixing apt first
[06:20] <blueapples> FAJ i think it does work though, this page lists it as working specifically with ath9k, madwifi, or ndiswrapper: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook#Wireless
[06:20] <blueapples> but of course they don't work for me
[06:20] <Lofde_> arvind_khadri, its ok i think it will all work out once that bug is fixed by someone who changes the dep. of system-config-printer... for gome.. because its a 8.10 bug
[06:21] <nnull> with bluetooth, i have a connection for it on my mobo, koz many OS's detect it, do i need to buy an antenna or something for this connection or?
[06:21] <FAJ> blueapples:  sorry.
[06:21] <FAJ> i dunn
[06:21] <FAJ> o
[06:21] <blueapples> hey uh... hmmm
[06:22] <FAJ> you could try blacklisting ndiswrapper
[06:22] <blueapples> i didn't restart after running that script and this page says to, after a similar svn install
[06:22] <FAJ> or modproding ndiswrapper maybe
[06:22] <blueapples> i wonder if it just hasn't loaded...
[06:22] <FAJ> try it then
[06:22] <blueapples> well, brb i guess thanks for the help!

[06:27] <sriramoman> arvind_k, what made you think that this is not the forum to discuss about ubuntu?
[06:28] <RadSurfer> Newbie here. when I type 'su' and enter my pswd, it says fails! but when I give pswd to apps that ask, it works. what gives?
[06:28] <nnull> koz its irc not a forum lah
[06:28] <Lofde_> sriramoman,  i was asking questions about ubuntu 8.10
[06:28] <arvind_k> sriramoman, its not the place to discuss ubuntu+1 ...
[06:28] <sriramoman> oh the beta versions, eh?
[06:28] <arvind_k> RadSurfer, you want to be root?
[06:28] <DasEi1> see topic
[06:28] <tritium> !su | RadSurfer
[06:29] <Flannel> Lofde_: 8.10 isn't stable yet.  We don't support it here.  But there is support for it in #ubuntu+1
[06:29]  * arvind_k had been scratching head with Lofde_ 's problem
[06:29] <gonzaloaf_laptop> hi, how do I tell gnome the preferred application to manipulate pdf files?
[06:30] <Lofde_> Flannel,  yes thanks ive been in that channel but they dont talk as much heh :)
[06:30] <sriramoman> gonzaloaf_laptop, "open with" on the file you desire, and change ur preferred application.
[06:30] <inasmu> does anyone know of any good CPU monitoring applications that run in the systemtray, not as gnome applet?
[06:31] <airtonix> gonzaloaf_laptop, or right click on the file, select properties, then the open with tab and select the app to be default.
[06:31] <pooki> hello
[06:31] <sriramoman> pooki, hello
[06:32] <airtonix> inasmu, what every ou find you can force apps into the tray with 'alltray'
[06:32] <pooki> i just installed 8.04 64. but i dont seem to be able to boot from hdd
[06:32] <airtonix> !alltray | inasmu
[06:32] <Flannel> Lofde_: This channel is not for 8.10, please don't ask about it here.  Things are different in 8.10, and we really can't help you here.
[06:32] <airtonix> !info alltray
[06:32] <pooki> installed on a sata drive. the livecd saw it fine. p45 chipset so i changed bios sata drives to ahci
[06:32] <inasmu> airtonix: is that a gnome program? I'm running fluxbox
[06:32] <santo> can someone help me with C++ programming? anyone knows how to program using C++?
[06:32] <pooki> but after install when i reboot it says reboot and select proper boot device
[06:33] <airtonix> inasmu, im not sure...give it a go it's tiny
[06:33] <DasEi1> pooki:where does the boot stop ? switched after install to ahci ?
[06:33] <sriramoman> santo, after programming, type gcc a.c -o a
[06:33] <inasmu> airtonix: thanks! I'll give it a try
[06:33] <pooki> erm DasEi1 i dont think it starts, it cant find the hdd to boot from. i post, get past bios, then it cant find anything
[06:33] <airtonix> inasmu, there are possbily others too: apt-cache search tray
[06:34] <santo> can u recommend a good website for C++?
[06:34] <airtonix> inasmu, or for better handling of the large list you may get : apt-cache search tray | less
[06:34] <inasmu> airtonix: yeah, I already piped it to less, thanks
[06:34] <DasEi1> pooki: switched after install to ahci ?
[06:34] <pooki> bios can see my hdds, the livecd can see them too. but when i try to boot no go
[06:34] <pooki> before install DasEi1
[06:34] <airtonix> inasmu, stalonetray is quite good
[06:34] <pooki> the livecd wouldnt load into gnome without ahci
[06:34] <nnull> with bluetooth, i have a connection for it on my mobo, koz many OS's detect it, do i need to buy an antenna or something for this connection or?
[06:35] <DasEi1> !grub|pooki
[06:35] <airtonix> inasmu, i imagine that alltray is an x11 app so it would work on all de's
[06:35] <arvind_khadri> nnull, no need for that if you have some kind of bluetooth adapter
[06:35] <inasmu> airtonix: yeah, it looks like it doesn't do quite what I want, I want something that I can glace at to monitor CPU stats, not just to dock applications tehre
[06:35] <pooki> DasEi1: weird thing was, after install, i go back to livecd to chroot into the new install. grub was not installed in /boot/grub as far as i saw
[06:36] <DasEi1> pooki: can use the first link to reinstall grub or dld the super-grub-cd (google) to restore proper grub
[06:36] <inasmu> airtonix: but there seem to be a few others from apt-cache tray that'll work
[06:36] <airtonix> inasmu, i use a number of things when my taste changes: conky & a few other gnome-applets
[06:36] <pooki> ok
[06:36] <blackvd> I'm having a problem with my external LCD 22" 1680x1050 monitor. All of a sudden out of the blue nvidia-settings sees it as a crt with max res of 640x480. its been working fine for 2 months until now. was there a bad update?
[06:36] <pooki> can linux boot off sata? i remember my old box i always had an ide root disk
[06:36] <airtonix> pooki, i boot off sata
[06:36] <arvind_khadri> !fixres | blackvd
[06:37] <DasEi1> pooki: if you want i can take a look at your menu.lst and your fstab , see
[06:37] <DasEi1> !paste
[06:37] <alec> #ubuntu-powerpc
[06:37] <airtonix> pooki, i didnt do anything special at install time though...
[06:37] <alec> i just installed xubuntu and im having some problems with the dislay?
[06:37] <arvind_khadri> alec, ask #xubuntu :)
[06:38] <DasEi1> pooki: files are /etc/fstab   and /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:38] <arvind_khadri> pooki, have you installed ubuntu? and are you able to boot into it?
[06:38] <pooki> yeah DasEi1 will look, but cant see it being fstab.. last time i looked there was no /boot/grub. i reinstalled one more time to be sure. but i'll check again
[06:38] <pooki> arvind_khadri: installed, will not boot
[06:38] <DasEi1> alec:which grcard ? install displayconfig-gtk
[06:38] <pooki> its a new build
[06:38] <arvind_khadri> pooki, does grub show up?
[06:38] <pooki> no grub
[06:39] <gonzaloaf_laptop> airtonix, sriramoman thanks
[06:39] <pooki> boot -> bios -> reboot and select proper boot device.. dont get any grub at all
[06:39] <alec> dasEil: i dont know what grafic card.
[06:39] <arvind_khadri> pooki, the drive in which you installed ubuntu should boot first... assuming you have two drives
[06:39] <pooki> yeah arvind_khadri ive looked in bios and made sure
[06:39] <DasEi1> pooki: in cli : cd /boot/grub     ,then : ls   >>menu.lst ? gotta be there when grub displays an error
[06:39] <arvind_khadri> pooki, do you get error about grub?
[06:40] <pooki> arvind_khadri: no doesnt get that far. doesnt find the hdd
[06:40] <DasEi1> yup, he does
[06:40] <airtonix> gonzaloaf_laptop, i think the wuick way with the submenu on the right click menu is only to use the app with said file for this time only, the method i detailed is for long term changes
[06:40] <nnull> arvind_khadriƺ bluetooth adapter? would this be the thing that's on my motherboard or?
[06:40] <airtonix> gonzaloaf_laptop, quick*
[06:40] <arvind_khadri> pooki, make sure no external drives are attached...check for CD in the tray
[06:40] <ahtmly2k> HELP i just got americas army running... and set it up to 1280x800 fullscreen... but now its not fullscreen and i have two mouse arrows (one for ubuntu and onther for americas army)... and americas army keeps trying to go to fullscreen goes suddenly back to windowed and all over again... whts going on?
[06:40] <pooki> arvind_khadri: ill try changing which hdd is booting in the bios again. but im pretty sure i got the right one
[06:40] <DasEi1> pooki: didn't you say you get a grub error ? look for menu.lst!
[06:40] <ahtmly2k> i also had this problem in nexuiz
[06:41] <pooki> DasEi1: i said there was no /boot/grub when i chrooted into the new system from the livecd
[06:41] <alec> DasEil: i am installing, what do i need to do after i install?
[06:41] <arvind_khadri> pooki, :)
[06:41] <pooki> erm /boot had some vmlinux images, but no grub directory.. but i dont get why it wouldnt install. cos the installation seems to finish without incident
[06:41] <arvind_khadri> nnull, a desktop ?
[06:41] <pooki> ive installed ubuntu plenty of times, but ive never seen this before :P
[06:41] <pooki> new hardware -_-
[06:42] <ziesemer_> I need to get my USB EVDO device working under Linux.  I'm currently using Hardy Heron.  I'll offer a $20 "bounty" over PayPal to anyone that can help me get it working.  Details at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5862730#post5862730 .
[06:42] <nnull> arvind_khadriƺ what do you mean?
[06:42] <[Solaris]> pooki update-grub ?
[06:42] <DasEi1> alec:which grcard ? sudo displayconfig-gtk                     , there try to find your monitor
[06:42] <pooki> [Solaris]: update-grub from the livecd?
[06:42] <[Solaris]> i think that creates the grub directory
[06:42] <arvind_khadri> nn64, are you using a desktop i mean
[06:42] <pooki> hm
[06:42] <[Solaris]> from the mounted device
[06:42] <DasEi1> menu.lst there ?
[06:42] <pooki> [Solaris]: but i shouldnt have to do that >_> the install is supposted to install grub for me :P
[06:42] <[Solaris]> i may of came into this confo too late ;P
[06:43] <pooki> DasEi1: no theres no grub directory let alone the menu.lst
[06:43] <[Solaris]> pooki true but my current install with alt-install cd didn't do it
[06:43] <pooki> [Solaris]: interesting
[06:43] <DasEi1> pooki: so reinstall grub then
[06:43] <pooki> [Solaris]: i'll give that a try
[06:43] <[Solaris]> pooki but i am not doing a normall install (trying to isntall on a software raid)
[06:43] <arvind_khadri> nnull,  are you using a desktop i mean
[06:43] <arvind_khadri> nn64, sorry abt that
[06:44] <pooki> [Solaris]: you on 8.04 as well? im using the 64 bit on my p45 mobo.. having a lot of issues with it atm
[06:44] <JuzzyD> im hoping someone can help me here, Im migrating from MetaCity to Openbox, but I cant figure out how to have OpenBox display the menu from Gnome Panel as I've seen in screenshots
[06:44] <DasEi1> JuzzyD: i googel'd your dell,  it has standard components with no serious probs in hardy
[06:44] <[Solaris]> pooki yea
[06:44] <[Solaris]> p35 board here
[06:44] <pooki> nod
[06:44] <pooki> heard p35 was stable.. kicking myself for not getting one now :P
[06:44] <JuzzyD> DasEi1, It's given me plenty of issues none the less. As I said, one of my biggest gripes is USB transfer speed
[06:45] <JuzzyD> I get as low as 300k/s usb transfers
[06:45] <[Solaris]> heh as long as you don't have a faulty mem stick that likes destroying your 'fakeraid' drives
[06:45] <pooki> heh unlucky
[06:45] <arvind_khadri> ziesemer_, tried this http://linux--help.org/joomla2/index.php?option=com_content&task=category&sectionid=1&id=1&Itemid=27?
[06:45] <DasEi1> JuzzyD: thats far to slow; usb-stick ?
[06:46] <DasEi1> too
[06:46] <JuzzyD> So, anyways, anyone have that experience with OpenBox? I'd essentially like to remove the standard gnome panels al together
[06:46] <JuzzyD> usb stick, psp, ipod, you name it
[06:46] <ziesemer_> arvind, I believe.  Which link?  The May 22 2008 one?
[06:46] <tyberion> anyone here using lastfm
[06:46] <tyberion> ?
[06:46] <bullgard4> What is the filename of the GNOME 2 Session Manager?
[06:47] <nnull> arvind_khadriƺ yea i am
[06:47] <arvind_khadri> ziesemer_, ya
[06:47] <ziesemer_> Either way, the problem isn't even with ppp, etc., yet.
[06:47] <ziesemer_> I'm not getting the device to use.
[06:47] <ziesemer_> I get no /dev/ttyUSB1, etc.
[06:47] <DasEi1> JuzzyD: usb-utils installed ? does lsusb recognize the devices ? check out /var/log/syslog for errors
[06:47] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: gnome-session? Or are you talking about something else?
[06:47] <arvind_khadri> nnull, if your m/o b/o doesnt have a inbuilt one then you will have to buy a new one...comes in the size of pen drive..
[06:48] <nnull> arvind_khadriƺ it does have some kind of built in one, ON the motherboard, but it doesnt have an antenna or anything
[06:48] <nnull> windows/linux both pick it up as hardware arvind_khadri
[06:48] <arvind_khadri> nnull, no need for that ... just use it :)
[06:49] <JuzzyD> I'll have a look shortly
[06:49] <blueapples> FAJ so, no luck really. i did find this http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/802.11i and it said you need to use nwa_supplicant to generate a config file then connect using that. i get this trying to start wpa_supplicant
[06:49] <nnull> arvind_khadriƺ the bluetooth can get through my towercase?
[06:49] <blueapples> FAJ http://paste.ubuntu.com/51162/
[06:50] <blueapples> any idea what that means?
[06:50] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: I am speaking about The GNOME 2 Session Manager in https://launchpad.net/gnome-session
[06:50] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: /usr/bin/gnome-session
[06:50] <JuzzyD> Anyone know how to remove the Gnome panels without not using Gnome anymore?
[06:51] <Jordan_U> JuzzyD: RIght click -> Remove pannel
[06:52] <Sesshomaru> How do i install windows on  ubuntu?
[06:52] <spook> so i heard that ubuntu is slower than windows
[06:52] <JuzzyD> It makes me keep at least one though Jordan_U, I want all of them goners
[06:52] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: Your answer is wrong. man gnome-session says clearly that gnome-session starts up the GNOME desktop environment. (No '2' contained.)
[06:52] <spook> how do i run this setup.exe
[06:52] <Daft_Punk> Sesshomaru, use a virtual machine such as virtualbox
[06:52] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: Sorry
[06:52] <Sesshomaru> Ubuntu makes Vista seem fast doesn't it?
[06:53] <Daft_Punk> Sesshomaru, no
[06:53] <HappyHater> trolls
[06:53] <JuzzyD> The desktop environment is a collection of applications smart arses, the gnome panels are a very small part of the overall environment
[06:53] <JuzzyD> No need to be elitist wankers about it
[06:53] <spook> how do i make ubuntu not suck?
[06:53] <Daft_Punk> omg trolls, everywhar
[06:53] <Daft_Punk> DIE
[06:53] <vitaliy_> get smarter
[06:53] <Ziroday> spook: do you have an issue?
[06:53] <ljsoftnet> spook, your out of place here
[06:53] <Daft_Punk> lol ya no kidding huh
[06:53] <Flannel> !conduct
[06:53] <pooki> ok weird.. yeah the install does not install grub for me.
[06:53] <bullgard4> spook: Stop it.
[06:53] <ledenby> Sesshomaru: ubuntu is like a turtle
[06:54] <Sesshomaru> So how can i remove all this ubuntu crap and use debian?
[06:54] <spook> ledenby: its very slow? and loses the race?
[06:54] <pooki> grub-install doesnt work from the livecd does it [Solaris]
[06:54] <Flannel> Sesshomaru: Please ask in #debian
[06:54] <ledenby> y
[06:54] <Daft_Punk> Sesshomaru, spook GTFO :) thank you
[06:54] <[Solaris]> pooki dont think so.. you can try supergrub to fix your problem
[06:55] <abchirk> supergrub??
[06:55] <pooki> supergrub you say.. *googles*
[06:55] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: That launchpad page refers to the package gnome-session, if you "dpkg -L gnome-session" you will see gnome-session and gnome-session-save, I assume you want the latter.
[06:55] <blueapples> anyone else know about wireless? i guess FAJ is away
[06:55] <WhoNeedszzz> Is it me or is the flash plugin crashing like crazy in FF 3.0.3?
[06:55] <Ziroday> blueapples: what is your exact issue?
[06:56] <Ziroday> !flash > WhoNeedszzz
[06:56] <WhoNeedszzz> wtf
[06:56] <Jordan_U> WhoNeedszzz: Flash has always been buggy in Linux
[06:56] <spook> i heard that the ubuntu kernel has backdoors, hidden in all the patches that get applied
[06:56] <WhoNeedszzz> Not like this
[06:56] <Flannel> spook: Please stop.
[06:56] <WhoNeedszzz> I upgraded to 3.0.3 and it's crashing non-stop
[06:56] <WhoNeedszzz> didn't before
[06:56] <blueapples> Ziroday okay so what I've got going on is an almost functional madwifi install that refuses to connect to networks. i see them listed, but am unable to connect to them. even wicd just sits there bounding back and forth trying to get the IP address
[06:57] <ljsoftnet> WhoNeedszzz, try to uninstall some addons that you don't need
[06:57] <Ziroday> blueapples: what wireless card? And what guide(s) have you followed?
[06:57] <blueapples> Ziroday I'm on a macbook with Atheros chipset
[06:57] <ahtmly2k>  HELP i just got americas army running... and set it up to 1280x800 fullscreen... but now its not fullscreen and i have two mouse arrows (one for ubuntu and onther for americas army)... and americas army keeps trying to go to fullscreen goes suddenly back to windowed and all over again... whts going on?
[06:57] <blueapples> started with these suggestions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook#Wireless
[06:57] <Zaiden> Hi. I think I'm ready to try to replace windows as my main desktop with linux, though I'm havin trouble deciding between 32bit or 64bit ubuntu. I heard that 64bit has some benefits over 32bit ubuntu, but I'm not sure what they are. Could I get an opinion or advice on which I should choose?
[06:57] <Ziroday> blueapples: exact macbook model?
[06:57] <Jordan_U> blueapples: Can you pastebin the output from "iwevent" while you try to connect to a network?
[06:57] <Sesshomaru> How do i run a .exe ?
[06:58] <WhoNeedszzz> ljsoftnet: i don't think that is related at all
[06:58] <Ziroday> Sesshomaru: by using wine
[06:58] <Daft_Punk> Sesshomaru, use wine
[06:58] <blueapples> Jordan_U yeah uh, during wpa_supplicant?
[06:58] <WhoNeedszzz> As i said, it only started once i upgraded
[06:58] <blueapples> or just try with wicd?
[06:58] <tarrant> Zaiden: 32bit
[06:58] <WhoNeedszzz> wicd is awesome
[06:58] <blueapples> if it worked i'd agree :-p
[06:58] <blueapples> brb
[06:58] <ljsoftnet> ahtmly2k, are you using the latest America's Army version?
[06:58] <Sesshomaru> so wine is a nifty emulator ?
[06:58] <Ziroday> !wine > Sesshomaru
[06:59] <geek_> wine is not an emulator ;p
[06:59] <alec_> Im new to linux, tryng to get wireless working in xubuntu.
[06:59] <spook> i keep trying to run this .exe in wine, but it keeps complaining about ubuntu being too slow to run the computer
[06:59] <WhoNeedszzz> Is there a flash plugin that works?
[06:59] <inasmu> !flash | WhoNeedszzz
[06:59] <Ziroday> WhoNeedszzz: you can try the latest flash 10 however it is unstable
[06:59] <Sesshomaru> WhoNeedszzz, probably from adobe's site
[06:59] <WhoNeedszzz> Those don't work
[06:59] <ledenby> spook: turn off your unnecessary services in ubuntu
[06:59] <Flannel> WhoNeedszzz: have you tried gnash?
[06:59] <Sesshomaru> you must be on 64 bit
[07:00] <WhoNeedszzz> I think
[07:00] <WhoNeedszzz> let me try again
[07:00] <blueapples> Jordan_U, no useful output while connecting with wicd
[07:00] <blueapples> Jordan_U, it just said "Waiting for Wireless Events from interfaces..." and then nothing
[07:01] <blueapples> Ziroday I believeit is a 3.1
[07:01] <blueapples> Ziroday I can't really tell while in Ubuntu though
[07:01] <Ziroday> blueapples: according to the wiki have you tried the ath9k dirver? I also recommend you try with network-manager instead of wicd
[07:01] <Sesshomaru> some guy named Patrick Volkerding created ubuntu?
[07:01] <Ziroday> Sesshomaru: no.
[07:01] <blueapples> i tried ath9k first, never worked
[07:02] <WhoNeedszzz> gnash blows
[07:02] <blueapples> is network-manager the default at system > administration > network ?
[07:02] <Flannel> WhoNeedszzz: Then no.  There's apparently no flash that works.
[07:02] <bullgard4> Jordan_U: Thank you for explaining.
[07:02] <Jordan_U> bullgard4: np
[07:02] <Ziroday> blueapples: no its the little applet, at the top right that looks like two computer monitors together
[07:02] <Ziroday> blueapples: however do use wicd you should have uninstalled it
[07:03] <blueapples> okay what is the package name?
[07:03] <blueapples> oh, lol, network-manager -_- doh
[07:03] <Ziroday> blueapples: you need to remove wicd first
[07:03] <Jordan_U> blueapples: network-manager-gnome
[07:03] <blueapples> aptget removes it
[07:03] <WhoNeedszzz> bleh
[07:04] <blueapples> well i did apt-get install network-manager network-manager-gnome
[07:04] <blueapples> right clicking and doing "Connect..." on that does nothing...
[07:04] <blueapples> wait that's wicd how did that get there
[07:04] <blueapples> uh
[07:06] <blueapples> Ziroday do i need to restart?
[07:06] <paranoid_android> i connected my server running hardy to my router and added a static route.. neither by router nor my server can see each other.. any ideas ? :/
[07:06] <Ziroday> blueapples: no, open a terminal and type sudo /etc/init.d/network-manager start
[07:07] <Ziroday> blueapples: and then nm-applet
[07:07] <paranoid_android> i tried to ping router and it doesnt work.. and in my router console icant see anyhing connecte
[07:07] <maco> paranoid_android: are they on the same subnet? do you have your netmask set properly?
[07:07] <blueapples> Ziroday okay the first cmd to start it didn't work
[07:07] <gonzaloaf_laptop> an utility to take pictures with the webcam?
[07:08] <blueapples> and running the applet doesn't list any networks
[07:08] <maco> paranoid_android: an easier way to get a static ip might be to keep it using dhcp but set up a dhcp reservation for its mac in your router
[07:08] <Flannel> gonzaloaf_laptop: theres a number of them.  Cheese is pretty popular I hear.
[07:08] <Ziroday> blueapples: you are using the ath9k drivers correct?
[07:08] <paranoid_android> maco: thank you.. yes they are.. i got the subnet mask from another comp.. i was trying dhcp earlier but it was not working and trying static now
[07:08] <blueapples> Ziroday i was trying to use madwifi, should i switch to ath9k you think?
[07:09] <inasmu> blueapples: running the applet just causes the icon to appear in your systemtray
[07:09] <Ziroday> blueapples: your choice
[07:09] <Ziroday> blueapples: however can you pastebin lsmod please
[07:09] <blueapples> ls /etc/init.d doesn't list network-manager
[07:10] <Jimm-> Is there a guide to TVOut for ati cards?
[07:10] <blueapples> Ziroday http://paste.ubuntu.com/51164/
[07:10] <Ziroday> !ati > Jimm-
[07:10] <stickboy> how do i disable the black line minimize effect? really annoying...
[07:10] <blueapples> Ziroday, i did blacklist ath9k after it didn't seem to work, hopefully i did't miss any other ones. i think only madwifi is installed right now
[07:11] <micr0c0sm> anyone got virtualbox working with a 64 bit guest ?
[07:11] <Ziroday> blueapples: you can try removing the madwifi drivers and using ath9k instead
[07:11] <Ziroday> blueapples: and then restart
[07:12] <blueapples> ZIroday okay, so, blacklist ath_pci then let ath9k back in and restart?
[07:12] <Ziroday> blueapples: yes
[07:13] <blueapples> !blacklist
[07:13] <blueapples> i always forget the filename
[07:13] <inasmu> blueapples: instead of rebooting, you can just drop down to single user mode and then back up, its quicker than rebooting
[07:13] <blueapples> is that uh, oh man i used to know that one
[07:13] <blueapples> had to do that ALL THE TIME with redhat a few years ago
[07:13] <inasmu> inasmu: "telinit" is the command to change runlevels, so "sudo telinit 1" will drop you to single user mode
[07:13] <Ziroday> blueapples: just reboot, its similar
[07:14] <Ziroday> sorry I mean easier
[07:14] <gonzaloaf_laptop> Flannel, thanks
[07:14] <blueapples> Ziroday do you think i need to blacklist ath_hal and ath_rate_sample too?
[07:15] <blueapples> i kind of htink i do since the hal one is what actually talks to the ahrdware
[07:15]  * blueapples types shutdown now
[07:15] <blueapples> brb
[07:19] <blueapples> okay, ath9k looks like it's running
[07:19] <blueapples> there's a new option in the network config icon that says "Enabled wireless" which wasn't there before
[07:20] <blackvd> Ok I'm at a complete loss as to why all of sudden out of the blue my external LCD(1680x1050) monitor shows up as CRT-0 640x480?! Was working fine and I haven't changed any settings, only ran updates. Any easy fix for this? Cause why I would have to reconfigure my x for something that worked fine for 2 months as plug n play seems strange to me.
[07:20] <blueapples> Ziroday so i updated the lsmod output http://paste.ubuntu.com/51168/
[07:21] <Ziroday> blueapples: sorry back
[07:21] <blueapples> Ziroday it's okay i just got back in ;)
[07:21] <Jordan_U> blackvd: What GFX card?
[07:21] <blueapples> Ziroday I'm not seeing how to use this wireless config, i can't type a security key or anything...
[07:21] <Ziroday> blueapples: okay
[07:22] <Ziroday> blueapples: can you please start nm-applet
[07:22] <blueapples> is running
[07:22] <blueapples> i think
[07:22] <blueapples> that's the networking icon in the tray right
[07:22] <Ziroday> blueapples: so you see a little icon appear in the top right that looks like two computers?
[07:22] <blueapples> yep
[07:23] <Ziroday> blueapples: yes, clicking on it should bring a drop down of all the available wireless network
[07:23] <blueapples> Ziroday oh sweet
[07:23] <Ziroday> blueapples: does that happen?
[07:23] <blueapples> yeah
[07:24] <blueapples> Ziroday i was right clicking before, trying to use the dialog in there
[07:24] <Ziroday> blueapples: and when you select a network do you connect?
[07:25] <Theeb> so Ubuntu's desktop is gnome desktop?
[07:25] <Ziroday> Theeb: yes ubuntu uses gnome
[07:25] <Ziroday> blueapples: in other words is everything working?
[07:25] <Ojii> hi, for some reasons i cannot open the 'Applications' main menu anymore. also i cannot open System->Preferences->Main menu, i restarted and still have this problem, can someone help?
[07:25] <Theeb> in the login screen, i can choose from xserver to gnome session, whats that?
[07:26] <Jordan_U> Theeb: There are also KDE and XFCE versions, but Gnome is the most used and most polished
[07:26] <Ziroday> Jordan_U: careful :)
[07:27] <Theeb> Jordan_U,  so whats the xserver is it also gnome?
[07:27] <pen_> whois pen
[07:27] <blackvd> Jordan_U: nvidia geforce 7300 Dell Inspiron 6400 found this post and they're having the same problem http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-809498.html so I'm reinstalling my nvidia drivers now to see if that fixes it.
[07:28] <Jordan_U> blackvd: How did you install the nvidia drivers in the first place? Unless you use the package manager / System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers you will have to re-install the drivers for any xorg or kernel upgrades
[07:29] <ongre08> A little help needed here if possible. I mistakenly deleted a file that starts the Ubuntu OS, it starts and then stops after running a bunch of code how do I get it to reinstall without having to lose what I already have in the program.  It is a dual boot XP Desktop.
[07:30] <Jordan_U> Theeb: The Desktop environment ( gnome KDE or XFCE ) runs on top of the xserver ( Xorg )
[07:31] <Theeb> Jordan_U,  thanks :0
[07:31] <Jordan_U> Theeb: np
[07:32] <dida> When i use FixFox,i do not why it can be reboot sometimes ,i am very confuse~~
[07:32] <blackvd> bah no fix by reinstalling driver >_>
[07:33] <Ziroday> dida: please try to rephrase your question. Also what is your first language?
[07:33] <blueapples_> Ziroday, well, no die
[07:33] <Ziroday> blueapples: so you can see networks in network manager, but you can connect to them?
[07:33] <blueapples_> Ziroday yep

[07:37] <Ojii> can someone help with this http://paste.ubuntuusers.de/392121/ after I try to launch alacarte from console (cant launch it from menu)
[07:37] <pooki> Jordan_U: i have no clue. done a ton of ubuntu installs. this is a new build. installed it twice from livecd, both time there is no grub in /boot
[07:37] <inasmu> how would I change my screen brightness via the command line?  cpufreqd has "#exec_post=echo 5 > /proc/acpi/sony/brightness" in its config file, but when I do an equivalent thing nothing changes
[07:37] <Ziroday> blueapples: it may be that the ath9k drivers don't support wpa1/2. Please try connecting to an unsecured wireless
[07:37] <kingtekrin> !motion  > kingtekrin

[07:41] <alec> im new to linux and ned help setting up wireless on xubuntu
[07:41] <Ziroday> blueapples: I am out of ideas sorry. The only thing I can think of is testing the wireless card under OS X to make sure its working or using ndiswrapper
[07:41] <pooki> Jordan_U: the livecd says Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device
[07:42] <blueapples_> sigh

[07:43] <sriramoman> kingtekrin, i also need the same question's answer. I need only the process pID and no other junk as output

[07:49] <^paradox^> these test pages to print are reaching the printer
[07:49] <kingtekrin> which one is the process number?
[07:49] <Flannel> kingtekrin: It's likely to be "motion" and not "Motion"
[07:49] <pooki> ok thanks Jordan_U
[07:49] <Flannel> kingtekrin: the second one, but that's your grep, not motion itself.
[07:49] <^paradox^> they say spooling then that disappears and they just dont print
[07:49] <kingtekrin> oh
[07:50] <^paradox^> but the printer physically tries to print
[07:50] <^paradox^> it prints anything from the vista pc fine

[08:01] <dada> we shoule go to chinese chanel
[08:01] <^paradox^> sorry ubottu ;-) im just bored waiting
[08:01] <kingtekrin> !ubottu
[08:01] <arbir> ubottu , can you help me please ?
[08:02] <bobertdos> arbir: Is there a reason you can't or don't want to use the version of Amarok already in the repos?
[08:02] <ompaul> !botabuse | kingtekrin
[08:02] <icesword> lol
[08:02] <ompaul> !away > lurcio|away
[08:02] <arbir> bobertdos: i liked the amarok in kde4, so i thought i can have it on my ubuntu 8.04 instal
[08:02] <ompaul> arbir, sudo apt-get install amarok
[08:02] <bobertdos> arbir: You mean in Gnome?
[08:02] <kingtekrin> first of all, ompaul, I did know ubottu's command, and i wanted the link
[08:03] <pcany> the kde4 is 400M
[08:03] <blueapples> !blacklist
[08:03] <arbir> ompaul: that will get me the older version of amarok. not the one that ships with kde4
[08:03] <arbir> bobertdos: yes in Gnome
[08:03] <ompaul> !compile | arbir ( you will need sources which you will have to get yourself)
[08:03] <pcany> in fact ,all of us is use a x-server in gnone
[08:04] <arbir> pre-built packages are giving me dependency error
[08:04] <pcany> in fact ,all of us is using a x-server in gnome
[08:04] <Jimm-> Can anyone help me get TV-Out working in xorg.conf? I've read the binary-howto guide but it didn't help at all.
[08:04] <arbir> is looking into compiling it
[08:04] <ompaul> arbir, be warned that the mixing of packages from future distros means that you will most likely break other stuff - after all it is a time based release
[08:04] <bobertdos> arbir: Yes, what ompaul says, and also be aware that Hardy's dependencies may or may not be up to date with what the new Amarok requires.
[08:04] <Flannel> arbir: there is no package amarok-kde4
[08:04] <vrivett> does anyone know how good beagle is on ubuntu
[08:05] <arbir> ompaul: i read your point. well compiling might kill me with all the kde4 libs that i might need to download
[08:05] <arbir> Flannel: http://ubuntu2.cica.es/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/universe/a/amarok-kde4/
[08:05] <ompaul> arbir, it might kill anything else sitting there also
[08:05] <arbir> hahahhahahah @ ompaul. thanks a lot. let me look into it
[08:06] <pooki> hrm i just noticed there are no initrd.img files in my /boot directory either
[08:06] <pooki> is this install completely botched?
[08:06] <kingtekrin> so, killing the process isnt working because once i kill the process number given, it says no process exists
[08:06] <arbir> pooki: if you dont have those files, then you dont have the kernel
[08:06] <ompaul> pooki, sounds like it
[08:06]  * bobertdos really hopes Intrepid ships with some new versions of packages, since everyone seems to be wanting them
[08:06] <pooki> @_@ ok
[08:06] <tyberion> hrm, is anyone here familiar with screen?

[08:07] <Jimm-> Does anybody use the ati driver, and have Tv-out working who is willing to help me out?
[08:07] <ompaul> kingtekrin, what program are you trying to terminate?
[08:07] <kingtekrin> motion
[08:07] <Shoopuf> Anyone seen DKKnight? (I think that's his nick) ... I was wondering if they ever fixed that problem with "erratic volume slider behavior"
[08:07] <kingtekrin> because i have no idea how to control it
[08:07] <ompaul> kingtekrin, how did you start it?
[08:07] <kingtekrin> ...it was a download through add/remove
[08:07] <icesword> .seen dkkningt
[08:08] <kingtekrin> and then it kinda took over my webcam permanently
[08:08] <kingtekrin> >.<
[08:08] <bobertdos> ompaul: You're right, unfortunately, I don't have the energy to play advocate tongiht, *yawn* :)
[08:08] <ompaul> bobertdos, it happens everyone :)
[08:09] <Talib> hi
[08:09]  * bobertdos bids all good night
[08:09] <kingtekrin> gnight bobertdos
[08:09] <ompaul> kingtekrin, run this command >>ps auwx | grep motion | grep -v grep  << and give me the number on the left most side and text to it's left
[08:10] <Gge> Hello ,  could not find by googling how to create a shortcut to run a java app -->>  " java -cp xx.jar  to avoid each time to run the command from termainal window . Any suggestion ?
[08:10] <tyberion> hum, anyone knows whether there is a way to bind keys in screen from ctrl-a [ to ctrl-a ü and ctrl-a ] to ctrl-a +
[08:10] <tyberion> ?
[08:10] <Talib> with ubuntu, i just installed it, i restarted, do i need a boot manager to allow me to select whether i boot into windows or ubuntu?
[08:10] <ompaul> Gge, right click on desktop "create launcher"
[08:11] <kingtekrin> it gave me nothing
[08:11] <ompaul> kingtekrin, program dead
[08:12] <kingtekrin> O_O
[08:12] <kingtekrin> sweet
[08:12] <kingtekrin> is the grep -v grep thing what killed it?
[08:12] <kingtekrin> because the light on my cam went off at that moment
[08:12] <ompaul> kingtekrin, no -
[08:12] <kingtekrin> O_O
[08:12] <kingtekrin> I think I just heard the twilight zone music ...
[08:12] <kingtekrin> lol
[08:13] <Talib> can anyone help me?
[08:13] <ompaul> !offtopic | kingtekrin
[08:13] <kingtekrin> i meant because of the program disappearing
[08:13] <inasmu> Talib: yes, you need a boot manager
[08:13] <PaT_> rc.h4cky0u.org
[08:13] <ompaul> kingtekrin, please don't hit the enter key after each one word line - complete lines only, and ones that matter would be even better :)
[08:13] <Talib> inasmu can you recommend one?
[08:13] <Talib> i have no idea what to get
[08:14] <inasmu> Talib: Ubuntu automatically installs grub as a boot manager
[08:14] <Talib> well
[08:14] <kingtekrin> ok
[08:14] <Talib> when i rebooted my PC at the end of the installation, it doesn't ask which OS i wish to boot into
[08:15] <inasmu> Talib: does it say something like "grub is loading, press Esc to see options?" the grub menu might be hidden
[08:15] <Talib> no
[08:15] <Talib> it doesn't display anything when i boot my PC, just gets to the hardware check bit then starts booting up windows
[08:16] <inasmu> Talib: did you install Ubuntu on the same harddrive as Windows?
[08:16] <Talib> i think so, should i try changing the boot drive in BIOS and see if thats the case?
[08:17] <Talib> the boot sequence i mean
[08:17] <santy_1983> hi all of
[08:17] <Jimm-> Does anybody know how to get tv-out working with ati and xorg.conf?
[08:18] <inasmu> Talib: the boot sequence shouldn't change anything unless you installed on a different harddrive
[08:18] <Talib> im sure its on the same partition as windows...
[08:18] <Talib> same drive*
[08:18]  * Gemini cries because CS3 isnt supported
[08:19] <inasmu> Talib: okay, then you can probably boot a LiveCD and run the "rescue" part to reinstall grub
[08:19] <Talib> i'll give it a shot, thanks, brb
[08:21] <Gemini> how do i get the UUID of one of my partitions?
[08:21] <Gemini> what does it stand for by the way?
[08:22] <Flannel> Gemini: sudo blkid, and Universally Unique ID
[08:22] <Gemini> Flannel: Thanks :)

[08:24] <Allan_Rhae> hello
[08:24] <inasmu> !hi
[08:24] <Allan_Rhae> :)
[08:25] <pooki> hmm while the installation is finishing, somewhere in the last 10% of the install X seems to crash out. it doesnt prompt me to reboot

[08:27] <OneZero> Hello, I'm downloading a streaming video file at the moment with Mplayer (command:~$ mplayer -dumpstream). It is workign fine, but unfortunately I can download only one file at a time. Does anybody know, how to download several streaming video files simultaneously?
[08:28] <Gemini> OneZero: Use multiple Mplayers?
[08:29] <OneZero> Gemini: yuo mean, I should open several terminal windows and excute commands simultaneously?
[08:29] <Gemini> OneZero: you could try, but then again, im no expert
[08:30] <gonzaloaf_laptop> hello is it possible to install the gnome theme spherecrystal from debian in ubuntu?
[08:30] <NicEXE> I can't get Joomla to work. I put the joomla folder in htdocs folder named as joo. When I try to go to localhost/joo/ it says that I hav no permision to access /joo/ on this server.

[08:31] <Ninesvnsicks> Anyone know the class name for screensavers?
[08:32] <^paradox^> still in need of a hand with printer sharing
[08:32] <loserbar_> hi im using windowmaker and im looking for a good way to safely hibernate my laptop any suggestions?
[08:32] <OneZero> I already tried that, but it doesn't work, because mplayer saves the file in /home directory and names it "stream.dump". It doesn't recognize that there is already another downloading in progress.
[08:33] <^paradox^> as a refresher this is the ubuntu pc. my wifes vista home pc is the one with the printer. im trying to share that printer to this puter
[08:33] <Rat409> OneZero: wget -c url ?
[08:33] <^paradox^> this is an output from printing troubleshooter http://rafb.net/p/0b0And17.html
[08:34] <MrColor> irc.onlinebg.biz
[08:34] <OneZero> Rat409: what does this command do?
[08:34] <Gemini> how do i get dual head monitor support running on Ubuntu? i am using an ati card and the ati binary drivers
[08:34] <^paradox^> seriously need a hand with this
[08:34] <Mr_Fixit> umm... how do i find out what my video card is and enable it on my laptop?
[08:35] <Gary13579> Haha, I see this is a bad place to come for support,
[08:35] <Rat409> OneZero:  its a cli download tool -c means resume or continue try wget --help or man wget
[08:35] <ahtmly2k> HOW can i look for driver updates for my soundcard?
[08:35] <ahtmly2k> like automatically
 Ubuntu update will notify you automatically
[08:36] <ahtmly2k> yeah but my sound keeps clashing... i have no idea whts going on.... YELP...
[08:36] <OneZero> Rat409: thanks, I'll take a closer look. Reading will take some time...
[08:37] <Gemini> ahtmly2k: are you running flash in the background? cos flash will grab the sound ive noticed
[08:38] <Gemini> ahtmly2k: and normal sound apps will grab from flash
[08:38] <Rat409> Mr_Fixit: try lspc |grep VGA then google if necessary
[08:38] <Rat409> whoops lspc/lspci
[08:39] <ahtmly2k> really?
[08:39] <ahtmly2k> didnt realize dat...
[08:40] <ahtmly2k> ...does flv count?
[08:40] <Gemini> ahtmly2k: if its played in firefox yeah
[08:40] <ahtmly2k> oooooh...... bummer
[08:40] <rconan> Anyone here using a marvell 88se6121 with ubuntu (or any linux really)?
[08:40] <ahtmly2k> but i dont think thats the case
[08:41] <ahtmly2k> im trying to play americas army
[08:41] <ahtmly2k> and theres no sound.... buhuhuhuuhuhuhuhuuhu
[08:41] <muyyaQ> hello
[08:41] <ahtmly2k> ...y.e.l.p...
 dont have anything running in the background that would need sound, even paused media players
[08:41] <jim_p> ahtmly2k: is americas army a quake engine based game?
[08:41] <muyyaQ> what is the best mp3 codecs for ubuntu ?
[08:42] <tonsofpcs> how can i change screen res on-the-fly with a hotkey? [using a notebook to drive an external display, internal display died, external doesn't support widescreen, I do not want to change my xconfig as I will be fixing the panel display tomorrow]
[08:42] <jim_p> ahtmly2k: the quake engine has some problems with alsa, but it can be corrected
[08:42] <jim_p> ahtmly2k: you will have to redo the procedure eaxh time you run americas army
[08:44] <inasmu> how would I change screen brightness from the command line?
[08:44] <jim_p> ahtmly2k: are yoy there?
[08:45] <ahtmly2k> yeah im here
[08:45] <ahtmly2k> but i dont get it
[08:45] <ahtmly2k> wht about nexuiz? is quake based?
[08:45] <ahtmly2k> cuz its all fine
[08:45] <ahtmly2k> so i dont know
[08:45] <inasmu> I'm trying to configure cpufreqd to automatically dim my screen in certain modes, but I can't figure out how to change the brightness from the command line
[08:46] <ahtmly2k> and there arent a lotta preferences to play with in americas army... (sound-wise)
[08:46] <ahtmly2k> so i wouldnt know wht to tweak...
[08:46] <Gary13579> Okay, so CD drive on my notebook no longer wants to work. It was mounting, but wouldn't copy files over
[08:47] <Gary13579> I restarted, and now I can't even get it to mount
[08:47] <Gary13579> it just tells me there's no media in the drive
[08:47] <Gary13579> but I can boot live ubuntu fine from the drive, so it's not the bios/hardware
[08:48] <gidna> Hi
[08:48] <gidna> How can I burn .cue image in ubuntu?
[08:48] <erpo> gidna: Are you trying to circumvent copy protection?
[08:49] <gidna> -_-
[08:49] <jim_p> ahtmly2k: try this at a terminal " echo "quake3.x86 0 0 direct" > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss ", replacing quake3 with america's army command
[08:49] <jim_p> ahtmly2k: you will need a sudo in front
[08:49] <erpo> gidna: I don't care either way, but there's the easy way and there's the way that circumvents copy protection.
[08:50] <zlatko> hello
[08:50] <pooki> hi
[08:50] <gidna> burn a cd image doesn't imply piratery...
[08:50] <zlatko> can i post a small problem with ubuntu, but it is concerning madwifi???
[08:51] <rconan> !ask | zlatko
[08:51] <erpo> gidna: No, but if you want to pirate software you need to go about it differently than if you just want to copy the information in the bin/cue files to a disc.
[08:51] <esac> did anybody get updates today and then have their networking stop working ?
[08:51] <Mr_Fixit> 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) <--- my graphics card... but it doesn't allow high visual effects. is there some way to enable this?
[08:51] <gidna> I'm using gnomebaker, but it doesn't support the cue as I can see..
[08:52] <esac> i get an ip, but nothing resolves. windows on the same system works. it was working until i got some updates ,and then within 15 minutes, i couldnt resolve hosts anymore
 err what if he just wants to burn a cue image, does it really mean that he wants to pirate something?
[08:52] <rconan> esac, what's in your /etc/resolv.conf ?
[08:52] <jim_p> ahtmly2k: did it work?
[08:52] <zlatko> ok...i want to run aircrack so installed wubi....installed kernel, and am trying to install madwifi using the instructions on http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo
[08:52] <erpo> Gemini: No, it doesn't mean he wants to pirate anything, but if he _does_ want to pirate something (and that's what people want 90% of the time when the question is about bin/cue files or rar files), then he needs different directions.
[08:52] <^paradox^> that was weird. oh well
[08:53] <esac> rconan, im booted in windows right now to get online, but it was the same as what i have in windows now
 kk true
[08:53] <rconan> zlatko, and what is going wrong?
[08:53] <zlatko> but when i get to the line ifconfig ath0 up (or down) i get the problem http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo
[08:53] <rconan> esac, does pinging a domain name work?
[08:53] <Gemini> does anyone know where to download aircrack? the official one www.aircrack-ng.org i cant reach for some reason
[08:54] <zlatko> sryath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[08:54] <rconan> Gemini, apt-get install aircrack-ng is what i usually use
[08:54] <zlatko> SRY this is the error ath0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
[08:54] <erpo> When I insert an SD card into my laptop's built-in reader, it shows up as an icon on the desktop. When I insert an xD card, that does not happen. How can I fix this?
[08:54] <zlatko> ive been searching for a solution for 4 days
[08:54] <OneZero> Rat409: I read the manual about "wget" and now I know some more useful ways about downloading. thanks!
[08:54] <mistform> erpo, you can use .bin and .cue to store backups of all your media. This is very well within compliance. Besides, there are better IRC servers for that stuff anyways
[08:54] <esac> rconan, no
[08:55] <esac> rconan, nslookup returned an ip
[08:55] <jim_p> zlatko: do you have a wireless adaptor thing?
[08:55] <erpo> mistform: If you're not interested in defeating copy prevention, why not use an iso file?
[08:55] <^paradox^> coming up on three
[08:55] <zlatko> you mean wireless card
[08:55] <zlatko> yes
 cool thanks
[08:55] <rconan> zlatko, what does lsmod output?
[08:55] <rconan> or rather lsmod | grep madwifi
[08:56] <jim_p> now that we are not talking about piracy :P , how can i turn a live cd to an .iso?
[08:56]  * rconan can't remember the name of the madwifi modules, they are on his other computer
 use brasero
[08:56] <zlatko> how am i suposed to copy this
[08:56] <erpo> jim_p: dd if=/dev/cd_drive of=./livecd.iso
[08:56] <mistform> erpo, because you have to mount ISO's. Instead of .ISO's, why not just another CD??? 1 physical backup, 1 digital backup (.bin/.cue) works just as well as .iso
[08:56] <jim_p> ???
[08:57] <strk> how can I tell if the touchpad works w/out using X ? As X doesn't recognize it, but tpconfig can find it...
[08:57] <rconan> zlatko, sorry, do "lsmod | grep ath_pci"
[08:57] <erpo> jim_p: You have a physical live cd and you want to make a disc image of it on your computer, right?
[08:57] <jim_p> sorry erpo and Gemini but i dont get you
[08:57] <jim_p> erpo: yes
[08:57] <erpo> mistform: You don't have to mount isos. You can burn them if you want to.
[08:57] <zlatko> rconan, ath_pci               257216  0
[08:57] <zlatko> wlan                  261536  1 ath_pci
[08:57] <zlatko> ath_hal               340368  1 ath_pci
[08:57] <mistform> erpo, but I have a right to display the content on my home computer (which has better speakers)
 ok, are you in Ubuntu now or windows
[08:58] <erpo> mistform: No argument here.
[08:58] <jim_p> erpo: dd makes an exact copy of it? will it retain its bootability?
[08:58] <rconan> zlatko, and what does iwconfig output? use pastebin for it, it will be large
[08:58] <gidna> Can I burn a cd image on a dvd?
[08:58] <jim_p> Gemini: linux of cource!!!
[08:58] <erpo> jim_p: Yes.
 ok just making surre, now just open up a terminal
[08:59] <^paradox^> still in need of help setting up printer sharing over our network
[08:59] <mistform> erpo, i'm just running you in circles. Really, don't assume that "90% of the time when the question is about bin/cue files or rar files" means they are pirating something.
[08:59] <jim_p> Gemini: done
[08:59] <erpo> gidna: Sure.
 use dd if=/dev/scd0 of=/whatever.iso
[08:59] <mistform> erpo, first time I learned about the whole shebang, I was trying to download and install Ubuntu, which I've used for over 2 years now
[08:59] <jim_p> Gemini , erpo thanks
[08:59] <^paradox^> running into a couple of problems. really need some help
[09:00] <gidna> why brasero doesn't allow me to burn a cd image on a dvd?
[09:00] <erpo> mistform: You're telling me you got ubuntu as a cue file?
[09:00] <DeadLy_sp> hello
[09:00] <koala_man> how do I install ubuntu on another disk from ubuntu? I tried debootstrap, but it didn't include a kernel or anything
[09:00] <mistform> erpo, no, it was an iso, but the program I used could also handle .bin and cue
[09:00] <zlatko> paste.ubuntu.com? i clicked paste but nothing seamed to happen
[09:01] <Flannel> zlatko: you get a new page with your stuff in it, you paste the URL of that page back here.
[09:01] <erpo> mistform: Unless you're dealing with a mixed mode cd, bin/cue has no advantage over iso for data and flac/cue for audio (if you're an audio nut). Mixed mode discs went out with platform shoes.
[09:01] <rconan> zlatko, you paste it in there then copy the link to here
[09:02] <erpo> mistform: Look. It's not a big deal. Do whatever you want.
[09:02] <zlatko> http://paste.ubuntu.com/51183/
[09:02] <zlatko> heh, didn't see the poster field
[09:02] <pooki> this is what has happened to my install. no kernel initrd.img or grub installation -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=856079
[09:03] <rconan> zlatko, i would guess from that that you don't have an atheros chipset wireless card
[09:03] <pooki> what is the /casper directory. is it possible to copy the needed files to your install to just get that first boot
[09:03] <zlatko> yes, i do
[09:03] <rconan> zlatko, is it a usb, or pci or what?
[09:03] <zlatko> laptop
[09:03] <rconan> mini pci or pcmcia?
[09:03] <zlatko> acer aspire 5100
[09:03] <zlatko> do you want me to find the chipset
[09:04] <zlatko> i find it but forget it
[09:04] <her2r23> hello, where might i be able to access wireless statistics (like iwlist ath0 foo) in a file?
[09:04] <DaveTarmac> hi folks - I'm having a spot of bother getting LAMP to work on my 8.04 Desktop.

[09:06] <LinuxGhost> HI.Does someone knows how to set a specific Kernel(e.g. mine: ubuntu 8.04.1 kernel 2.6.22-14-generic) to be booted at Computer start up???Thats because i've compiled my Kernel as recommended to fix that but wich makes boot process hanging while on AC Cord Poewr plugged-in.
[09:06] <rconan> zlatko, no problem
[09:06] <zlatko> i was certain 100000000% that it was atheros, so does this mean thati can't run aircrack
[09:06] <shepherd> i bought a house today
[09:06] <erpo> LinuxGhost: Edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:06] <her2r23> !ops | shepherd
[09:06] <shepherd> actually a duplex
[09:07] <rconan> zlatko, you can't do injection with it so you could only crack a network which is being heavily used by other users
[09:07] <tomoyuki28jp> How can I install a package from hardy-experimental repository?
[09:07] <pooki> win 2
[09:07] <mambodzambo> hi ALL
[09:07] <nalioth> her2r23: the correct factoid is !offtopic
[09:07] <rconan> zlatko, as I guess you aren't cracking your own network, it makes it much more difficult
[09:07] <zlatko> oh, ok, thx a lot,
[09:07] <nalioth> shepherd: please take the off topic stuff to #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:08] <zlatko> well, i have a network, but i want to bridge it with another one
[09:08] <LinuxGhost> erpo:OK.THANKS.ill check it now
[09:08] <mambodzambo> i have problem with making wifi work who will help me ?
[09:08] <zlatko> and i was interested in the knowladge
[09:08] <rconan> zlatko, of course... aren't we all :p
[09:08] <zlatko> heh
[09:09] <afallenhope> heh. that was fun.
[09:10] <zlatko> one more question how can you tell if a card can inject, do you have to learn it, or does it say in lpsci
[09:11]  * ^paradox^ wonders if he'll ever get his printer shared over the network
[09:11] <andypls1> "chmod  o+r file" doesn't sets the permission of others to Read
[09:11] <andypls1> why is that?
[09:12] <talib> hi, i must have somehow installed ubuntu to my second harddrive, when i reboot grub does not load
[09:12] <rconan> zlatko, the drivers page on aircrack-ng.org has a list of supported chipsets
[09:12] <zlatko> im going to sleep, you have been of A LOT of help, and much more help than those guys in #madwifi
[09:12] <zlatko> THX A LOT
[09:12] <rconan> zlatko, in fact... i just read that broadcom does work!
[09:12] <zlatko> oh it does
[09:12] <andypls1> "chmod  o+r file" doesn't sets the permission of others to Read
[09:12] <talib> i dont know how to get grub installed
[09:13] <rconan> zlatko, http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=broadcom
[09:13] <talib> i booted from the livecd and i wasn't sure how to setup grub, plus it would not let me connect to IRC
[09:13] <^paradox^> help me ive been at this for two days. its becoming monotonous
[09:13] <rconan> zlatko, it might be easier to use something with prepatched kernel like backtrack
[09:14] <rconan> zlatko, it's a livecd with injection patches for all wireless chipsets and aircrack-ng all preinstalled
[09:14] <yo> rconan: are you talking about backtrack?
[09:14] <rconan> yo, yes
[09:14] <talib> help :(!
[09:14] <rconan> zlatko, but if you wanna use ubuntu there is this thread: http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=2845.0
[09:15] <yo> rconan:  for some reason it asks me to configure either ath0 or wifi0.  any ideas?
[09:15] <rconan> yo, you want to use ath0 the madwifi driver makes two interfaces for some reason
[09:15] <zlatko> thank you a lot
[09:15] <zlatko> backtrack, is that like ubuntu
[09:15] <zlatko> a OS
[09:16] <yo> I do that, but for some reason... no dice
[09:16] <rconan> zlatko, yes, it's a linux distribution, but it will run from a CD without installation
[09:16] <^paradox^> listen the printer im trying to share receives request to print test pages that i send to it from this ubuntu box
[09:16] <^paradox^> the printer acts like it will print them but then stops moving does nothing
[09:16] <yo> rconan: thanks for the tip.  I'll try it again.
[09:17] <zlatko> rconan, oh, ok, and do i have to order it, or how does that go
[09:17] <rconan> yo, sorry can't really help, i don't use madwifi on my computers (my mate has an atheros), my wireless is an rt2500
[09:17] <rconan> zlatko, you can download it
[09:17] <rconan> zlatko, http://www.remote-exploit.org/backtrack.html
[09:17] <^paradox^> they show up in the printers job list and say spooling, but that goes away and they dont print
[09:18] <kingtekrin> !info cedega
[09:18] <kingtekrin> oh
[09:18] <zlatko> rconan, i will do that
[09:18] <kingtekrin> >.<
[09:18] <esac> ok so i am in linux now. the default gateway matches that of windows. resolv.conf is the same. i can use 'nslookup' and get ip addresses. however using firefox or xchat or ping for names DOES NOT work. if i use the IP it does work. any ideas ?
[09:18] <zlatko> hmmm...and i wont have to go throught the pain of setting up a kernel...
[09:19] <zlatko> great
[09:19] <talib> where is the default install location of the boot manager?
[09:19] <^paradox^> my wifes pc runs vista home and yes ive already setup file and printer sharing on it
[09:19] <zlatko> THX a lot
[09:19] <zlatko> you have been of a HUGE HELP
[09:19] <balrog> anybody know anything about setting up labview 7.1 in ubuntu 8.04?
[09:19] <kingtekrin> so let us say that I turned my windows game into a compressed torrent, and now i want to use cedega to install it again...how do i do that since i broke the disc?
[09:20] <^paradox^> heres the output of printing troubleshooter http://rafb.net/p/0b0And17.html

[09:22] <kingtekrin> does anyone know why my rar file wont extract...it says type not supported
[09:22] <OdnsRvns> what is the file type
[09:23] <DaveTarmac> ^paradox^: pastebin is a website where you can paste your code or text output of a program for others to see. http://www.pastebin.com I believe is a common one
[09:23] <kingtekrin> huh?
[09:23] <OdnsRvns> Is it a .rar file
[09:23] <^paradox^> um ok
[09:23] <kingtekrin> yes
[09:23] <alec> im havng a display problem with xubuntu, i ran displayconfiggtk and it made it worse, any suggestions?
[09:23] <OdnsRvns> and what are you usint to open it
[09:23] <talib> I have windows on the primary HDD, ubuntu as a partition on my secondary HDD, grub doesn't load on boot, how do i set it to load grub?
[09:23] <^paradox^> but i already found a pastebin to use
[09:23] <kingtekrin> archive manager
[09:24] <kingtekrin> O_o
[09:24] <rconan> if you use ping, does it show the resolved ip?
[09:24] <DaveTarmac> ^paradox^: fair enough
[09:24] <^paradox^> http://rafb.net/p/0b0And17.html
[09:24] <kingtekrin> O_O
[09:24] <Yossarian> hello everyone!
[09:25] <Yossarian> i'm a n00b at ubuntu
[09:25] <Yossarian> and i'm considering making a full migration from xp
[09:25] <^paradox^> lol same here and linux in general
[09:25] <kingtekrin> Odns, yes
[09:25] <OdnsRvns> Try with Gebi package installer
[09:25] <Yossarian> yeah, me too
[09:25] <kingtekrin> k
[09:25] <Yossarian> although i tried opensuse
[09:25] <Guest71365> talib i'Ve had the same problem which ended up in installing the / on the 1st hdd
[09:25] <Yossarian> it was way too complicated for me :)
[09:26] <Yossarian> i have a few questons
[09:26] <^paradox^> my box uses only ubuntu and im quite pleased
[09:26] <OdnsRvns> Ubuntu is a nice mix of code and gui
[09:26] <Flannel> Yossarian: That's what we're here for.
[09:26] <^paradox^> id rather learn than use vista
[09:26] <Yossarian> first of all, is there any good audio editor for ubuntu such as audition or protools?
[09:26] <OdnsRvns> if i can get all my games to run i will kick XP off
[09:27] <OdnsRvns> There are Google it
[09:27] <DaveTarmac> has anyone set MySQL up on Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop? I'm having issues with it
[09:27] <IntangibleLiquid> how to I resize a partition?
[09:27] <Flannel> Yossarian: Audacity would be one, there's certainly others too
[09:27] <DaveTarmac> I can't seem to log in to mysql
[09:27] <^paradox^> i use audacity for copying audiobooks
[09:27] <OdnsRvns> what is the erro it gives you
[09:27] <^paradox^> nice program
[09:28] <kingtekrin> where do i find gebi?
[09:28] <DaveTarmac> OdnsRvns: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[09:28] <Hexus> I installed a couple of programs (less than 500mb worth) but my instalation tripled in size.  Could this be due to updates?
[09:28] <Flannel> kingtekrin: Its already installed if you have Ubuntu desktop
[09:28] <^paradox^> i love open office
[09:29] <kingtekrin> well...i cant find it
[09:29] <kingtekrin> lol
[09:29] <kingtekrin> and i do have ubuntu
[09:29] <Flannel> kingtekrin: its gdebi
[09:29] <^paradox^> oh man its just packed full of features
[09:29] <kingtekrin> right...i used it, but it didnt do anything
[09:29] <Flannel> kingtekrin: But, if you just double click the .deb file, it'll install via gdebi
[09:29] <kingtekrin> flannel, its a rar file, not a deb
[09:29] <^paradox^> it is the best office software out there in my opinion
[09:29] <Flannel> kingtekrin: ah, that wouldn't be gdebi then, that'd be one of the rar things
[09:29] <Flannel> !rar | kingtekrin
[09:30] <kingtekrin> bah...i dont want to pay to unload a rar
[09:30] <kingtekrin> lol
[09:30] <Yossarian> how much space does ubuntu need?
[09:30] <Yossarian> i'd install on my laptop but it's got a 40 gig drive
[09:30] <^paradox^> get wine then install filzip
[09:31] <^paradox^> it can unpack rars and make em
[09:31] <^paradox^> its free too
[09:31] <kingtekrin> ive heard wine is hard to use...keep in mind im brand new to linux
[09:31] <kingtekrin> brand new...and no idea how to code
[09:31] <^paradox^> as in no charge the best kind of free
[09:32] <^paradox^> oh well then peazip is a native program with about the same amount of features as filzip
[09:33] <^paradox^> easy to use, but i dont remember where i got it from
[09:34] <shortcut> is it possible to get a USB device that doesn't show up automatically under "filters" to connect to a virtualbox vm?
[09:34] <^paradox^> if u go to network dalnet channel #ubuntu speak with XiXaQ
[09:34] <^paradox^> he linked me to it
[09:35] <shortcut> specifically i'm trying to get an audio device working with skype inside a windows vm
[09:35] <kingtekrin> hmm
[09:35] <^paradox^> going for something to drink back in a minute

[09:36] <Flannel> !wine | kingtekrin
[09:36] <kingtekrin> i meant downloading it
[09:37] <cryingtux> everything is distorted after nvidia driver installation
[09:37] <^paradox^> then just save its windows installer to ur desktop and run it as u would in windows
[09:37] <kingtekrin> oh

[09:38] <^paradox^> yet ;-)
[09:38] <local_denka> I have a question - after initial installation of Ubuntu 8.04 I added KDE desktop solution by means of packet manager. However when I see initial screen of system loading - I see KUBUNTU instead of Ubuntu. What can be done with this?
[09:39] <ceciputz> aloo
[09:39] <cryingtux> all ubuntu 8.04 series give me this display issue
[09:39] <^paradox^> see if u get the windows setup file for filzip, then double click it wine should take over
[09:39] <cryingtux> here is the screewnshot
[09:39] <cryingtux> http://img517.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotnw2.png
[09:40] <cryingtux> can somebody help me how to fix this thing?

[09:40] <kingtekrin> yay thanks man ur a genius
[09:40] <ikonia> cryingtux: kubuntu is just a logo for kde on ubuntu
[09:40] <ikonia> cryingtux: ubuntu+kubuntu are exactly the same in terms of a distro, just different distros
[09:40] <ikonia> different desktops sorry
[09:41] <user881> when i view my cpu history, im never able to get any of my cores above 25%. im running a quad core. is a core running at max shown as running at 25%?
[09:41] <kingtekrin> ubuntu's meaning is very nice...
[09:41] <local_denka> I understand about desktops - bit I just prefer the default logo screen of ubuntu - I don'l like cold color of Kubuntu. Can I change it?
[09:41] <^paradox^> im off to get something to drink and some eats. i really need em running low on fuel
[09:41] <cryingtux> ikonia: i know that, i have display error with all ubuntu 8.04 series as shown in screenshot, every thing is dented
[09:42] <Yossarian> hot damn  i love ubuntu so far
[09:42] <ikonia> cryingtux: I've not seen the screenshot

[09:43] <tyberion> hmm where can I get a overview which xtffonts I got installed, like xselfont goes for normal ones
[09:43] <cryingtux> here is it
[09:43] <JuzzyD> Howdy Folks, Another question I'm doing well today. Because my gfx card isn't supported, I have to manually start compiz with "compiz --replace &". I've saved the command in sessions under start up, but I still have to manually activate it before it works.
[09:43] <ikonia> cryingtux: I can't see what you mean by dents
[09:44] <ikonia> cryingtux: thats xfce
[09:44] <^paradox^> me too. id love it more if somebody of 1242 ppl would offer some one on one help getting my printer shared. hello i just gave advice in the last three minutes
[09:44] <ikonia> not kde
[09:44] <tyberion> hmm where can I get a overview which xtffonts I got installed? anyone..?
[09:45] <cryingtux> ikonia, after i installed nvidia driver the resolution is bad and my desktop has bumps, corner uneven as if somebody hammered it and this happens with ALL ubuntu 8.04 series
[09:45] <ikonia> cryingtux: how are you installing the nvidia drivers ?
[09:46] <kingtekrin> how do i use the default browser for ubuntu?
[09:46] <bryan_> anyone know about epson printers in ubuntu?
[09:46] <user881> anyone else using a quad with 8.04?
[09:46] <ikonia> kingtekrin: what do you mean "use it" the webbrowser or the file browser
[09:46] <ikonia> user881: yes
[09:46] <shlunk> hey all!
[09:46] <kingtekrin> user881, yes, and 25% does not mean 100%, it literally means your quad is under no pressure
[09:46] <cryingtux> through synaptic and also tried trhough the ubuntu hadrware driver wizard and alos through the envy, all give same results
[09:47] <shlunk> can anyone help me with a networking problem in jeos and vmware?
[09:47] <kingtekrin> file browser ikonia
[09:47] <loserbar_> hi all im using windowmaker and i want a good way to hibernate my laptop so would in terminal sudo pm-hibernate work just fine or is there something better?
[09:47] <user881> cool, thanks all
[09:47] <bryan_> working with vmware at the moment
[09:47] <ikonia> kingtekrin: just open it, it's pretty similar to windows if thats what your used to
[09:47] <kingtekrin> right, but i cant find it...its not in my system area or my applications
[09:47] <rgp2130> hello all
[09:48] <DaveTarmac> OK - I've managed to get in to MySQL and it all setup now - how can I get access to phpMyAdmin?
[09:48] <rgp2130> i have a question for the room
[09:48] <ChaosR> hello, I have a problem. I'm using ubuntu server 8.04 and use this server as a router. I correctly set the default routing interface and gateway. However postfix keeps trowing up [no route to host] errors for all emails sent by the www-data user (all other users seem to work just fine). Does anyone know why this happens and how to fix it?
[09:48] <shlunk> i've installed jeos in a virtual machine, and selected automatic bridging
[09:48] <ikonia> DaveTarmac: have you installed it yet ?
[09:48] <Felix_Krull> Is there anyone who is well familiar with the fstab and the mismatch that lshw produces, causing cd/dvd not to automount?
[09:48] <DaveTarmac> ikonia: yeah, done that
[09:48] <ikonia> Felix_Krull: explain the problem
[09:48] <shlunk> the ip is correct (static), and the gateway etc is all fine, but i can't ping anything
[09:48] <ikonia> DaveTarmac: how did you install it
[09:48] <DaveTarmac> but I think I know why... bear with me
[09:49] <ikonia> cryingtux: how did you install the nvidia drivers ?
[09:49] <cryingtux> through synaptic and also tried trhough the ubuntu hadrware driver wizard and alos through the envy, all give same results
[09:49] <ikonia> cryingtux: which package did you install ?
[09:49] <DaveTarmac> ikonia: sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-auth-mysql php5-mysql phpmyadmin
[09:49] <ikonia> cryingtux: which card are you using ?
[09:49] <shlunk> anyone here using jeos in vmware?
[09:49] <cryingtux> i have nvidia geforce fx 5600
[09:49] <ikonia> cryingtux: try nott to use envy
[09:49] <rgp2130> my question is that i have a HP laptop and on it i have running Windows Vista Home Premium and would like to install Ubuntu as well, but am afraid i will damage something and void the warranty, can someone please advise whether its safe to do so or not, thank you.
[09:50] <ikonia> cryingtux: interesting which nvidia package did you install ?
[09:50] <Felix_Krull> Thnaks, first, I already had a session with one guy here, but he managed only to tell me that I need someone more experienced. In brief, my cd/dvd and sd-card stopped automounting, while usb-flash still has it.
[09:50] <ikonia> rgp2130: you should be fine
[09:50] <ChaosR> my mail queue is currently keeping all these messages stored
[09:50] <ikonia> rgp2130: ubuntu does not damage hardware, the worst you should have is a damaged Windows Operating system IF you mess up the insall
[09:50] <^paradox^> i recently had a geforce 6200 put in
[09:50] <DaveTarmac> ikonia: yeah, sorted it
[09:50] <Felix_Krull> ikonia: Thanks, first, I already had a session with one guy here, but he managed only to tell me that I need someone more experienced. In brief, my cd/dvd and sd-card stopped automounting, while usb-flash still has it.
[09:51] <OdnsRvns> hello all the new update to firefox killed my flash player how do i get it back
[09:51] <bryan_> !ipod in ubuntu
[09:51] <JuzzyD> Anyone know a solution to my problem of having to manually enable Compiz every session?
[09:51] <bryan_> !ipod
[09:51] <cryingtux> and i have installed glx-new driver
[09:51] <rgp2130> ikonia: how much HDD space do i need for Ubuntu?
[09:51] <shlunk> !jeos
[09:51] <DaveTarmac> ikonia: needed to create a link to it in the /var/www folder
[09:51] <ikonia> cryingtux: have you tried removing the nvidia-glx-new package, and then using nvidia-glx
[09:51] <tyberion> hmm where can I get a overview which xtffonts I got installed???
[09:52] <Felix_Krull> ikonia: In gconftool-2 is everything related to Nautilus, automount set to TRUE, properly...
[09:52] <cryingtux> ikonia, yes and same results and this happens only with 8.04
[09:52] <ikonia> Flannel: sorry I don't follow
[09:52] <ikonia> cryingtux: I'd log a but to nvidia then - as it's a closed source driver
[09:52] <ikonia> bug
[09:52] <OdnsRvns> Anyone know how to install flash player for firefox
[09:52] <shlunk> guys, any vmware experts here?
[09:52] <ikonia> OdnsRvns: install the flashplugin-nonfree
[09:52] <cryingtux> ikonia, and interestingly, mint and kurumin are two ubuntu 8.04 series which dont give me this error but pure ubuntu series do give me
[09:53] <blue-frog> rgp2130: the warranty does not cover what kind of oeprating system you have in your hardware (even if the vendors says the opposite). Changing operating system, then having a problem with hardware and not having the vendors honor the warranty because of that would lead to them losing in a law suit.
[09:53] <ikonia> shlunk: your asking ever 60 seconds - try to space it out more
[09:53] <OdnsRvns> Through Symatic
[09:53] <Felix_Krull> ikonia: Hence, I am really out of ideas what could be wrong. This is annoying, and sudden.
[09:53] <ikonia> OdnsRvns: yes
[09:53] <OdnsRvns> k
[09:53] <muyyaQ> hello
[09:53] <muyyaQ> what is the best mp3 codecs for ubuntu ?
[09:54] <ikonia> Flannel: so you put a DVD in and it doen't automount
[09:54] <rgp2130> 0dnsRvns: open the Firefox Browser and go to your addons feature and find it through that, alternatively go to http://www.adobe.com
[09:54] <ikonia> muyyaQ: everyone likes different codecs
[09:54] <ikonia> rpedro: thats not the approved method
[09:54] <muyyaQ> aa
[09:54] <muyyaQ> ..
[09:54] <Felix_Krull> ikonia: I do not know who is Flannel, but he/she has the same problem :-)
[09:55] <ikonia> Felix_Krull: Flannel is very sharp, I'll try to get a better explination of the problem off him
[09:55] <lolo2> can someone tell me how you would grep  each line of a file and have it spit back to you only the lines that started with ---> -[single digit]-^![single digit]s <-------
[09:55] <muyyaQ> and why when i install windows xp on my hdd cpu usage will be 100% n but when im using ubuntu cpu usage is stable ?
[09:55] <rgp2130> bluefrog: thank you, i also have a alienware laptop that works but doesnt have a working keyboard and has win xp installed which i will remove and change to only run ubuntu, that laptop is out of warranty and even if i stuff things up i will just wipe and try again
[09:56] <ikonia> muyyaQ: depends what your doing
[09:56] <Pirate_Hunter> !minimum
[09:56] <cryingtux> ikonia: so i guess this is weird bug which 8.04 brought for me and will never be fixed as i see
[09:56] <balrog> does anybody mind confirming a testable bug for me?
[09:56] <Pirate_Hunter> !minimal
[09:56] <Jimm-> !s-video
[09:56] <Felix_Krull> ikonia: But, can you help me?
[09:57] <DaveTarmac> how can I change the default path that apache works on?
[09:57] <ubi-laptop> I have a nasty problem with Ubuntu 8.04 and Nvidia setting, can anybody HELP me?
[09:57] <balrog> ubi-laptop: whats up?
[09:57] <rgp2130> blue frog, Ikonia: thank you both for your assistance. Have a great day.
[09:57] <talib> hi guys, with grub in windows it allows you to install something to allow booting from the cd
[09:57] <cryingtux> ubi-laptop: same here, me too
[09:57] <Slart> DaveTarmac: the path to the html source?
[09:57] <talib> how do i remove this option?
[09:57] <adi1> hi all
[09:57] <DaveTarmac> Slart: yeah please
[09:57] <adi1> I need to make horizontal scrollbar in touchpad on a laptop work like a back/forward button on firefox 3
[09:57] <cryingtux> nvidia and 8.04 dont like each other
[09:57] <ikonia> Felix_Krull: I'm not sure I understand the problem
[09:57] <ubi-laptop> thanks, when I press CTRL ALT F1-F6 I get i black console
[09:57] <adi1> can anyone remember me the line to change in about:config ?
[09:58] <balrog> ubi-laptop, cryingtux: what are the symptoms and what have you tried so far?
[09:58] <Slart> DaveTarmac: have you read the docs for apache? I think there is a special way you're supposed to use.. not sure if it's symbolic links or creating a second set of config-files..
[09:58] <Felix_Krull> ikonia: In brief, cd/dvd stopped automounting, just out of the blue! And sd-card too!
[09:58] <adi1> this is the best trick ever to navigate in firefox
[09:58] <balrog> ubi-laptop: what do you mean by black console?
[09:58] <Slart> DaveTarmac: the setting itself is in the config files afaik.. /etc/apache or something like that
[09:58] <bullgard4> Why is it advisable to use the program badblocks carefully?
[09:59] <DaveTarmac> Slart: ok, cheers
[09:59] <ikonia> bullgard4: badblocks, or the vendor tools
