[00:00] <dabbill> oh its showing that aptitude is useing 100%, but i dont have it open
[00:00] <danand_> kdallas - np
[00:00] <asdrubal> HI BUNTUS!
[00:00] <dabbill> how do i kill that proccess ?
[00:00] <kdallas> Q3: Is there finally an IM tool which supports both voice and video? Thanks
[00:00] <magick> danand_, Thanks. a enabling the send rcv buffer fixed it. I knew the answer wasn't " you can't stream! copy first" heh. All is fixed and streaming HD is no problem :) thank you.
[00:00] <jrib> dabbill: killing it may leave you with a broken dpkg database... what was it doing last?
[00:01] <unagi_> im not getting in map information on gpsdrive anymore anyone know why?
[00:01] <danand_> dabbill - ps -A | grep aptitude to get the PID of aptitude - then kill -9 [atitudes pid]
[00:01] <dsmith_> does turbotax work with ubuntu?
[00:01] <dabbill> i was installing some thing, and crashed my system, and sence then its been running at 100%
[00:01] <SniperFromHell> Does anyone know what HTTP cache is, and why it keeps starting up every half hour? Also, why do my torrent speeds on kTorrent throttle so much. Does this happen to anyone else with this specific program?
[00:02] <dsmith_> turbotax online that is
[00:02] <Green> LadyNikon thanks . dam i must get my eyes check out.
[00:02] <eelriver> top will tell you the pid. It's on the far left
[00:02] <Green> Love the "Purisa" font style
[00:02] <dsmith_> LadyNikon: Where you been at?
[00:02] <danand_> magick - cool :) - thought that was strange for a gigabit network. I can watch dvd movies on a samba box over wireless network
[00:02] <unagi_> no one knows anything about gpsdrive?
[00:03] <dabbill> sweet now both cores are at 0%
[00:03] <dabbill> thanks :)
[00:03] <LadyNikon> Green: :)
[00:04] <SniperFromHell> Does anyone know what HTTP cache is, and why it keeps starting up every half hour? Also, why do my torrent speeds on kTorrent throttle so much. Does this happen to anyone else with this specific program?
[00:04] <hou5ton> ok ... I have continued to research the issue with Ubuntu and webcam support in Skype.  Apparantly there needs to be an additional module compiled, but it is already present in SuSE and PCLinuxOS
[00:04] <Intertricity> Hey guys.. I installed my nvidia driver that was offered to me on installing 7.10.. do I need to install the driver directly from the nVidia site to get dual monitor?
[00:04] <Intertricity> I'm stuck with only one monitor atm
[00:04] <Bluey> can someone help me fix my /dev/sda2 error?
[00:05] <hou5ton> If I put Ubuntu back on this laptop, will someone help me compile a module.  :-)
[00:05] <KenSentMe> In a standard ubuntu installation there are folders in my home like Music Documents etc. Those are visible in the Places menu. How can i add folders to that list?
[00:05] <Green> Does anyone know if there's programs for linux to erase permanently or rewrite over the files on a hard drive ? OR EVEN FILES PRIVATE FILES???
[00:05] <AD7six> Hi. I'm getting this error sporadically (last time when trying to run vim "ICE default IO error handler doing an exit(), pid = 6246, errno = 4" I've googled the error message but don't know what it means - and can't find a process with that pid could anyone offer advice on where to look for the problem? This machine has generally started to be slow is it possibly hardware (hard disk?) related?
[00:05] <danand_> Bluey - try to be a bit more specific ... whats the exact nature of the problem
[00:05] <SniperFromHell> KenSentMe: right click and edit menu.
[00:05] <jrib> KenSentMe: easy way: anything you bookmark in nautilus will be added there
[00:06] <LjL> Green: shred, wipe
[00:06] <SniperFromHell> that too.
[00:06] <notechyet> can someone tell me a good way to get the network going
[00:06] <SniperFromHell> Does anyone know what HTTP cache is, and why it keeps starting up every half hour? Also, why do my torrent speeds on kTorrent throttle so much. Does this happen to anyone else with this specific program?
[00:06] <KenSentMe> jrib, ah, cool. Didnt know that, thanks
[00:06] <Starnestommy> SniperFromHell: do your other torrent programs also experience throttling>
[00:07] <Green> LjL I though you still can recover files...
[00:07] <LjL> unagi_: no, i don't know about gpsdrive, i can only suggest checking out roadnav for another (vector-based) navigation program
[00:07] <Bluey> danand_ when i try to start up ubuntu the whole screen turns into what looks like a ocmmand prompt, with a bunch of numbers and words. at the end it says i have a /dev/sda2 error and the automatic file system check failed
[00:07] <Green> LjL is shred complete rewritten the files /hd and unable to recover ?
[00:07] <LjL> Green: after using shred or wipe? definitely not without expensive equipment
[00:07] <SniperFromHell> Starnestommy: I don't know. I've never had any other ones than kTorrent.
[00:07] <SniperFromHell> What are some good ones?
[00:07] <LjL> Green, used on ext3, both can be problematic
[00:07] <Starnestommy> SniperFromHell: I've heard some ISPs throttle bittorrent
[00:07] <LjL> Green: at least ext3 with some flavor of journal
[00:07] <SniperFromHell> I know it cant be my connection because i download from other servers at constant speeds
[00:08] <SniperFromHell> oh
[00:08] <LadyNikon> configure: error: Sufficiently new version of libasound not found.  I get this while trying to configure "btsco"
[00:08] <Green> Ljl so what u recommend "shred or wipe"?
[00:08] <lz7> Bluey: it maybe hardware fault or file system fault, you need to know what type of error you get, and examine your drive with smarmontools for example
[00:08] <SniperFromHell> Starnestommy: what program do you recommend?
[00:08] <SniperFromHell> also, how do i send a message to you that notifies someone, like you just did for me.
[00:09] <LjL> Green: probably equivalent
[00:09] <Starnestommy> SniperFromHell: I don't use bittorrent, so I wouldn't be sure.
[00:09] <danand_> Bluey - sorry no idea on that one - redirect your question to the whole channel
[00:09] <emitchlpd> is anyone using vpnc and network manager on a normal *wired* network connection?
[00:09] <lz7> Bluey: smartmontools
[00:09] <Starnestommy> SniperFromHell: say their nick in a message?
[00:09] <LjL> Green: wipe is more versatile
[00:09] <SniperFromHell> oh ok
[00:09] <SniperFromHell> so like
[00:09] <SniperFromHell> Starnestommy: sup ?
[00:09] <Bluey> lz7: how do i begin to do that?
[00:09] <Starnestommy> SniperFromHell: yes
[00:09] <Green> Ljl and where would i get this shred and wipe or both different programs
[00:09] <SniperFromHell> Cool, thanks.
[00:10] <SniperFromHell> Does anyone know what HTTP cache is, and why it keeps starting up every half hour?
[00:10] <LjL> !info shred | green
[00:10] <LjL> !info wipe | green
[00:10] <ubotu> green: Package shred does not exist in gutsy
[00:10] <ubotu> green: wipe (source: wipe): Secure file deletion. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.21-3 (gutsy), package size 42 kB, installed size 132 kB
[00:10] <LjL> Green: shred is installed by default
[00:10] <lz7> Bluey: you said error, may you be more specific what error, and do you have problems with your drive?
[00:10] <arnducky> Hey LadyNikon, if you don't get your sound issues solved this session, try to find Crimsum in here -- he's woot at sound problems (coder)
[00:11] <danand_> Ljl - are shred and wipe ok on ext3 filesystems?
[00:11] <Green> ljl shred? installed by default? where i don't see it
[00:11] <crusie> arnducky: does he have an answer or driver for the xfi card in 32 bit ubuntu ?
[00:11] <LjL> danand_: no
[00:11] <Bluey> lz7: my drive is fine. and i get 2 errors on start up. a /dev/sda2 error and that the auto file system check failed
[00:11] <LjL> danand_: at least not with some flavors of journalling
[00:11] <LjL> Green: ... try typing "shred" in a shell
[00:11] <SniperFromHell> Does anyone know what HTTP cache is, and why it keeps starting up every half hour?
[00:12] <Starnestommy> SniperFromHell: do you have squid or apache installed?
[00:12] <arnducky> crusie, i dunno, you can but ask -- but if anyone does...
[00:12] <Green> ljl nothing happen just told me to `shred --help and still nothing happen it show <
[00:12] <SniperFromHell> Starnestommy: Nope, neither.
[00:12] <lz7> Bluey: well, if everything is fine, you can just disable fsck from running, or run it manually, type man fsck for that
[00:12] <SniperFromHell> Starnestommy: At least I don't think.
[00:12] <LadyNikon> I need "checking for libasound headers version >= 1.0.3... not present.
[00:12] <LadyNikon> "
[00:12] <LjL> green, danand_: "In the case of ext3 file systems, the above disclaimer applies (and shred is thus of limited effectiveness) only in data=journal mode, which journals file  data in  addition  to  just  metadata.   In  both the data=ordered (default) and data=writeback modes, shred works as usual." from man shred
[00:12] <crusie> crimsun: you there dude ?
[00:12] <SniperFromHell> How do I check? (ive never installed them but maybe some other package did?)
[00:13] <arnducky> crusie, have you checked out launchpad and ubuntuforums?
[00:13] <Starnestommy> LadyNikon: I think you need libasound-dev
[00:13] <crusie> well creative haven't put out a 32 bit driver yet
[00:13] <LjL> Green: err yeah, it means you need to provide it with arguments. have you never used command-line programs before? i'll give you some pointers.

[00:13] <arnducky> eww
[00:13] <arnducky> or <shudder> SDL
[00:14] <LadyNikon> Starnestommy: yay its working
[00:14] <crusie> arnducky: and I must say... my few times with oss tells me that I don't really need it ^
[00:14] <arnducky> crusie, join us in #ubuntu-offtopic please

[00:16] <LjL> !away > Veinor|away    (Veinor|away, see the private message from Ubotu)
[00:16] <AD7six> Any hints on what "ICE default IO error handler" means?
[00:16] <Green> ljl when I shred the certain files would they be unrecoverable forever?
[00:18] <gsa1> Hi guys
[00:18] <amenado> Green-> lest you have a backup
[00:19] <echosystm> guys, quick question
[00:19] <echosystm> the version of fluxbox in the repository is outdated
[00:19] <echosystm> is there any way for me to get 1.0 without compiling it myself?
[00:19] <echosystm> also, why arent packages automatically updated in the repository?
[00:20] <lz7> echosystm: add more repositories, backports, hardy reps etc
[00:20] <jrib> !timebasedreleases > echosystm (read the private message from ubotu)
[00:20] <gsa1> I buyed a noteook manufactured here at Argentina, and I've some problems, sound don't works, nor webcam, nor hibernation, were are the first places were to invesigate? (web sites I meand)
[00:20] <gsa1> meant
[00:20] <jrib> lz7: adding "hardy reps" is likely to result in a broken system
[00:21] <Green> amenado, ljl so its impossible to recover once i shred the files?
[00:21] <dstanek> what is the best tool to analyze http traffic - wireshark seems too confusing
[00:21] <lz7> jrib: you may add hardy reps for installing one program and after that disable them
[00:22] <jrib> lz7: no, that's not safe
[00:22] <amenado> Green-> improbable to recover it
[00:22] <bofh80> hi people, i'm having memory issues with wine, due to this i noticed i have only a 1.4gig swap partition, but i have upgraded to 2gig of memory, would this cause problems? do i even still need a SWAP partition?
[00:22] <danand_> Green - what file system are you using
[00:22] <LjL> Green: no. even assuming your filesystem is not journaled, someone with the right equipment can still perform data recovery. there are companies specializing in that.
[00:22] <teo-> how can i change eth0 to eth1 ????
[00:23] <amenado> teo-  via udev, but am not that familiar of how to do it yet
[00:23] <MichaelSammels> Can some admin dude please start a private chat with me?
[00:23] <LjL> MichaelSammels: admin?
[00:23] <lz7> jrib: well i think this is more question of canonical support politics, than technical side of things
[00:23] <MichaelSammels> Well, someone on the team. ((Ubuntu))
[00:23] <teo-> amenado, ok.. i try but not working
[00:24] <Infusion> anyone know how to get MYSQL WOEKING?
[00:24] <LjL> MichaelSammels, if you're looking for the operators of this channel, that's #ubuntu-ops - if you're looking for someone else, it depends
[00:24] <ag0g0girl> hey babes
[00:24] <ag0g0girl> how is
[00:24] <Green> danand_ NTFS for my storage
[00:24] <Infusion> #ubuntu-ops
[00:24]  * LjL points ag0g0girl to the channel topic
[00:24] <jrib> lz7: not really, it depends on the package.  Dependency issues are a big possibility.  That's the reason for the backports repository
[00:24] <MichaelSammels> LjL: Someone who is admin to something in here ((not support)): http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
[00:25] <danand_> MichaelSammels - just post your question here and someone will try to help

[00:25] <Infusion> i have 51 servers and 100 websites
[00:25] <LjL> Green, read shred's man page.
[00:25] <LjL> green, as i quoted earlier, "In the case of ext3 file systems, the above disclaimer applies (and shred is thus of limited effectiveness) only in data=journal mode, which journals file  data in  addition  to  just  metadata.   In  both the data=ordered (default) and data=writeback modes, shred works as usual." from man shred
[00:26] <comboniner82-3> http://100nonudes.com

[00:30] <LjL> zlaja: not following you
[00:30] <zlaja> what?
[00:30] <crusie> anyone has had experience with unbuntu not booting post install ?
[00:30] <LjL> zlaja, you've asked a Windows question, this is an Ubuntu support channel
[00:30] <rdoursenaud> Hi
[00:30] <crusie> I mean - everything installs correctly from what I can see
[00:31] <LjL> !install > crusie    (crusie, see the private message from Ubotu)
[00:31] <aquo> is there any reason to prefer dput over dupload or vice versa?
[00:31] <LjL> crusie: common thing to try is to disable acpi
[00:31] <crusie> LjL what\s acpi_
[00:31] <refefer> hmm, that's a shame.  I only plan on ssh-ing into the box so I don't need the extra bloat.  Is there a list of packages installed from an apt-get install ubuntu-desktop that I can get and manually uninstall each?
[00:32] <_alf_> !ubuntu-desktop > _alf_
[00:32] <LjL> crusie: don't make me attempt to explain that... :) just try booting with the "noacpi" option or the "acpi=off" option. see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions  for how to do that
[00:33] <wil> Hi... I have a problem.... I started my pc with a KVM and I was on a diffrent channel, now Ubuntu keeps booting in 640x480 and I can not change it back... I have tried changing it and doing detect, but nothing is working :(
[00:33] <lulzturtle> could someone kindly help me connect to my ubuntu server at work?
[00:33] <Green> ljl example "shred -v -z -u -f lifehacker.txt" it works but is this way the best way to overwriting the file and add with zero?
[00:34] <vix> hi, I need some help with java applets in firefox, im using Gutsy 64bits.
[00:34] <vix> hope I can find some help here, been struggling with this in many hours.
[00:34] <lulzturtle> I guess I need to figure out my external IP at work and maybe test to see if it has the right ports open?
[00:34] <LjL> Green: the more iterations you make it do, the lower the chances of recovery. assuming your filesystem is not journalled again.
[00:34] <jrib> vix: why are you not using 32bit if you care about things like java applets?
[00:34] <InspectorCluseau> no java applets with 64 bits
[00:34] <Green> ljl my hard drive are set only ntfs and ext3. so i can just leave it as default shred?
[00:34] <tehdave> I'm having issues with flash...anythink I try to load is
[00:34] <scrambledegg> vix: what have you tried so far ?
[00:34] <crusie> LjL it seems my first boot after install stops - it's still detecting usb things tho. tried to dc a couple and setting them ind again all showed on screen in recovery mode... I can type there but it doesn't accept commands
[00:35] <tehdave> I'm having issues with flash...anything I try to load is choppy...
[00:35] <Green> ljl nope all my hard drive are not part or set to "jFs"
[00:35] <LjL> Green: i really cannot say if shred will work properly on NTFS. on ext3, again, it will work if not in data=journal mode
[00:35] <vix> jrib, i have 4GB in memory, and also 64 bit CPU, u think i have problems because of the 64 bit OS ?
[00:35] <TBag> hi all, I know it's the wrong place to ask this but is there any channel dealing with finance on this server plz ?
[00:35] <crusie> LjL it's when the "line" should be starting to run across the screen
[00:36] <LjL> crusie: try those options
[00:36] <tehdave> Of the flash plugins for Ubuntu, which is the most stable/best performance? (x86 version)
[00:36] <vix> scrambledegg, many guides, like installing many packages, some linkings to .so librarys. my java is running fine, not just in firefox.
[00:36] <jrib> vix: sun does not provide a 64bit version of the java plugin so yes.  There are workarounds, but it's a pain compared to using 32bit ubuntu.
[00:36] <LjL> tehdave: Flash.
[00:36] <jrib> !flash64 > vix (read the private message from ubotu)
[00:36] <wil> what is the terminal command to change res of the screen?
[00:36] <scrambledegg> vix: so other java stuff like azureus work ?
[00:36] <LjL> !pm | Darkmystere
[00:36] <ubotu> Darkmystere: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[00:37] <tehdave> LjL: I meant between the nonfree plugin or the Gnash SWF player, etc.
[00:37] <LjL> !xconfig > wil    (wil, see the private message from Ubotu) perhaps this is what you're thinking about
[00:37] <echosystm> can anyone tell me what distros have kde4?
[00:37] <LjL> tehdave: err, yeah indeed, the nonfree plugin is "Flash". others are "Gnash" and "SWF Player".
[00:37] <Darkmystere> LjL, i just messaged you because i thought it was kinda offtopic..
[00:37] <LjL> tehdave: so, my answer is the nonfree plugin anyway
[00:37] <vix> scrambledegg, yes azureus works. and also netbeans
[00:37] <vix> jrib, okay thank you.. i will try it.
[00:38] <Darkmystere> Ok should i burn Bactrack to a CD or DVD because it says the file is 701MB and my CD;s only hold 700MB..
[00:38] <LjL> Darkmystere: then ask in -offtopic... i haven't the slightest idea to tell the trust. it might fit. i don't know, i burn a CD a year or so
[00:38] <Darkmystere> i did they havent answerd..
[00:38] <scrambledegg> vix: do you have this symlink in /usr/lib/firefox/plugins: /etc/alternatives/firefox-javaplugin.so
[00:38] <pocketdrummer> I have a question for everyone. Is there a "killer app" that Ubuntu or linux has that no other OS has?
[00:38] <tehdave> Alright...let's fix the question: Of the available SWF plugins, which is the most stable/best quality?
[00:39] <LjL> tehdave: flash. i.e. flashplugin-nonfree.
[00:39] <tehdave> thanks
[00:39] <echosystm> no pocketdrummer. most good linux apps have been ported to windows
[00:39] <crusie> LjL what will I gain (or loose) by running the noapi command_
[00:39] <echosystm> eg. open office, gimp, etc.
[00:39] <Green> ljl is there any other program for linux to overwriting with  pseudorandom data, Peter Gutmann's, etc. OR works best for NTFS ??
[00:39] <Lr5_> pocketdrummer: Even if there was, you could probably use it on cygwin anyway
[00:39] <yellowdog> ciao a tutti
[00:39] <InspectorCluseau> pocketdrummer, it's what Ubuntu and Linux DOESN"T have....trojans...viruses....etc
[00:39] <Green> ljl like those options
[00:39] <scrambledegg> vix: and the name was libjavaplugin.so :)   ?
[00:40] <brain2> I've seen 2 linux viruses
[00:40] <scrambledegg> vix: maybe its lib64 for you
[00:40] <vix> scrambledegg, not now, i had it before but it was buggy.
[00:40] <brain2> RST.B and OSF
[00:40] <LjL> crusie: you know what, i never really quite understood that, i'll have to admit. especially, i've never quite understood what (if anything) you will lose with the "noapic" option, which is another that you should try
[00:40] <crusie> "another" ?
[00:40] <echosystm> pocketdrummer: the reason you use linux is because you are a tinkering geek, you want awesome security, or you are running a server - windows cant really compete here
[00:40] <vix> scrambledegg, it was libjavaplugin.so for me yes.
[00:40] <LjL> Green, all programs will work equally well or equally badly as far as NTFS goes. it depends on how the filesystem works, and i haven't really a clue
[00:40] <scrambledegg> vix: you're using gcj  ?
[00:40] <crusie> LjL wasn't that the one you wanted me to use?
[00:41] <LjL> crusie: no. i suggested "noacpi" and "acpi=off". now i'm suggesting "noapic"
[00:41] <danand__> I hate my isp x(
[00:41] <vix> scrambledegg, i guess no, i dont know what it is
[00:41] <brain2> So I rebooted today and now my ctrl keys don't work.. Am I the only one?  I probably am.. gah
[00:41] <pocketdrummer> Well, I guess to answer my own question, maybe Synaptic and the repository system is the killer app for linux? I can't think of another OS that has it.
[00:41] <Lr5_> LjL: How about "irqpoll"? No idea what you are talking about, though
[00:41] <echosystm> macosx has something similar pocketdrummer
[00:41] <scrambledegg> vix: its a GNU implementation of java, and its very buggy with applets
[00:41] <pocketdrummer> really?  I can't move or reorganize my panels. Right click menu only shows "Help" and "About".  This probem only appears on my amd64 desktop. Searched the web and found nothing relevant. Can someone help?
[00:42] <echosystm> in linux, there are millions of dependencies and packages
[00:42] <jscinoz> they do sudo port install proggy
[00:42] <aquo> pocketdrummer: same mechanism is available for windows too
[00:42] <echosystm> youd have to be insane to download them all manually
[00:43] <pocketdrummer> there's a repository system for windows too? Wow, where have I been? lol
[00:43] <Green> ljl Can i use eraser the http://www.heidi.ie/eraser/download.php
[00:43] <Green> ljl on linux?
[00:43] <aquo> pocketdrummer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Package_management_system#Windows
[00:43] <vix> scrambledegg, okay, now i can choose java version.. which one should i use?
[00:44] <scrambledegg> vix: trye choosing sun java
[00:44] <aquo> pocketdrummer: i never have tested those, but i know windows-admins who use some of them (and also commercial ones)
[00:44] <danand__> echosystm - I remember hours of trying to resolve dependancy issues using rpm package manager on Redhat 6 ....
[00:44] <soldats> sunjava6
[00:44] <scrambledegg> vix: you got the package sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-plugin right ?
[00:44] <jrib> scrambledegg: the plugin does not exist on 64bit
[00:44] <Jangari> does anyone know how to install the mp3 libraries for sox?
[00:45] <scrambledegg> jrib: really ?
[00:45] <vix> scrambledegg, yes i have them installed.
[00:45] <MrPiracy> i am trying to set my /home folder back to where it was ... the folder exists (located in /home/tma) but when i type "cd ~/home"  in terminal it says "cannot find /home/tma/home"
[00:45] <LjL> Lr5_, crusie: i'd say to put them in order from least crippling to most, "noapic", "noacpi", "acpi=off", "irqpoll". noapic just means that the "advanced programmable interrupt controller" that's on newer computers won't be used, shouldn't be a big deal. "noacpi" and "acpi=off" mean that (part of?) ACPI won't be used, i assume that might impact power saving and such things, and i don't know what the difference is between the two. "irqpoll" means that some
[00:45] <LjL> relatively expensive checks are done on interrupts. i don't really know very precisely at all, i just know they're common options used to troubleshoot boot problems
[00:45] <scrambledegg> jrib: not so sure about that
[00:45] <scrambledegg> vix: ok then just try to update the alternatives and see if that works out
[00:45] <LjL> Green: seems like clearly a windows program to me
[00:45] <scrambledegg> *-s
[00:45] <robdig> MrPiracy: thats probably because ~ = /home/tma
[00:46] <Jangari> try cd ~, MrPiracy
[00:46] <jrib> scrambledegg: umm, ok?
[00:46] <jrib> scrambledegg: check packages.ubuntu.com if you wish
[00:46] <scrambledegg> jrib: he says he has the packages installed
[00:46] <vix> scrambledegg, did u got my PM ?
[00:46] <Green> ljl is there any other programs works best or just as good as shred for ntfs>?
[00:46] <|david|> hello
[00:46] <MrPiracy> Jangari: ops, my bad ok
[00:46] <scrambledegg> vix: dont think so
[00:47] <jrib> scrambledegg: then he is not using 64bit
[00:47] <MrPiracy> anyone could tell me a command line to empty recycle bin?
[00:47] <nickrud> My desktop would be complete with a 64bit java plugin (not)
[00:47] <vix> jrib, what are you talking about ?
[00:47] <spudgunner> In gnome, how many different places are there to set programs to run on login?  I've removed my compiz-fusion from System->Prefs->Sessions, but I can't seem to make it go away.
[00:47] <LjL> Green, i already answered best i could
[00:48] <scrambledegg> jrib: sun-java6-bin is for amd64 i386
[00:48] <jrib> scrambledegg: *plugin*
[00:48] <spudgunner> MrPiracy:  I usually delete the contents of the various .Trash-* directories at the root of the mount point
[00:48] <scrambledegg> jrib: ya okay then but firefox usually works with 32bit bindings
[00:49] <scrambledegg> jrib: i mean shared libraries
[00:49] <jrib> scrambledegg: not by magic though :)
[00:49] <MrPiracy> spudgunner: there's an error with my recycle bin, it won't complete emptying
[00:49] <scrambledegg> jrib: no by automaticz0r
[00:49] <MrPiracy> spudgunner: where's the location of the main trash bin?
[00:49] <scrambledegg> jrib: or maybe not :)
[00:49] <scrambledegg> jrib: nspluginwrapper is currently broken i think
[00:50] <vix> still it doesnt work really with java in FF.
[00:50] <jrib> scrambledegg: :) I just wanted to make sure you understood the plugin package is not available on 64 bit so the you have to follow the !flash64 instructions.  I had to go through this
[00:50] <vix> when i test an applet its a red cross in the upper corner.
[00:50] <spudgunner> MrPiracy:  try "rm -Rf /.Trash-USERNAME/*"
[00:50] <danand__> what?? - apparently I just signed off!
[00:50] <crusie> LjL I tried doing as you said - still no avail
[00:50] <spudgunner> MrPiracy:  and replace USERNAME with your login name
[00:51] <Jangari> !pastebin
[00:51] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[00:51] <scrambledegg> jrib: i really dont get why a plugin isnt crossplatform while the whole JVM is
[00:51] <vix> jrib, one question, I need to install 32bit firefox ?
[00:51] <MrPiracy> spudgunner:  it says no such file or directory
[00:51] <Scunizi> spudgunner, MrPiracy you may have to add sudo to the beginning of that line.
[00:52] <spudgunner> MrPiracy:  sorry, its "rm -Rf /home/USERNAME/.Trash/*"
[00:52] <scrambledegg> vix: 32bit ff worked flawlessly for me
[00:52] <oreomike> MrPiracy: if you use 7.10 like me, your trash should be in ~/.Trash/
[00:52] <spudgunner> MrPiracy:  oreomike has it right
[00:52] <jrib> scrambledegg: blackdown java had a 64bit plugin.  The bug on sun's tracker is several years old.  They just don't care
[00:52] <scrambledegg> vix: with flash and everything
[00:52] <MrPiracy> spudgunner: :-) it worked, thanks
[00:52] <jrib> vix: yeah, the wiki page walks you through it
[00:52] <spudgunner> MrPiracy:  np
[00:53] <kibb> hi are the packages i download with apt-get or synaptic kept on my hdd somewhere? i would like to save myself the download for my other machine
[00:53] <spudgunner> In gnome, how many different places are there to set programs to run on login?  I've removed my compiz-fusion from System->Prefs->Sessions, but I can't seem to make it go away. Any other suggestions?
[00:53] <vix> scrambledegg, okay, i got flash working in 64bit, so I can at least watch some youtubes now :D
[00:53] <witepa> hey im trying to install ubuntu gutsy on core2duo and i get "ata5.01: exception Emask.....action 0x2 frozen
[00:53] <nickrud> kibb: /var/cache/apt/archives
[00:53] <Phildo> heyas - having some grub dramas, would someone mind lending a hand in pm, theres a bit of situation explaining to do..
[00:53] <scrambledegg> vix: :P
[00:53] <wil> Hi all, I have just got my screen res back to normal, but now non of the windows have a titlebar :( how do I get it back?
[00:53] <kibb> is everything there?
[00:54] <|david|> spudgunner: make sure you disable it in appearence or it will keep starting it
[00:54] <spudgunner> |david|:  done that too
[00:54] <kibb> cool cheers nickrud
[00:54] <|david|> hmmmm
[00:54] <jw144000> Can anyone help me to reformat my external hard drive to be able to be used in Windows?
[00:55] <nickrud> kibb: if they're on a network together, you might consider a proxy, like aptproxy
[00:55] <MrPiracy> jw144000: what's the problem?
[00:55] <scrambledegg> jw144000:  mkfs.vfat /dev/sd*
[00:55] <kibb> i was thinking along the lines of a burned cd... its only going to be used once or twice thanks again
[00:55] <jw144000> MrPiracy: I installed Gutsy Gibbon on the external hard drive, but now I'm considering a partition for it on my internal hard drive. Because I installed Gutsy on the external hard drive, Windows isn't recognizing it.
[00:55] <oreomike> have to install an app from its source, but need kernel headers, is there a package for that?
[00:55] <BiLL_Yates> Let's talk about something else!!! Let's talk about Vista....!
[00:56] <jw144000> scrambledegg: Where do I enter that?
[00:56] <mjw-> !offtopic | BiLL_Yates
[00:56] <ubotu> BiLL_Yates: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[00:56] <nickrud> oreomike: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[00:56] <silverblade> Im trying to compile a 32bit app on a 64bit install of Ubuntu. I get an 'ld' error: "skipping incompatible /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.1.3/libgcc.a when searching for -lgcc"
[00:56] <spudgunner> |david|, do you know file-wise *where* setting those settings actually makes compiz start... I mean it has to be in some script somewhere...
[00:56] <silverblade> i assume its finding the 64bit version of that lib. how can i install the 32bit one
[00:56] <MrPiracy> jw144000: you want to access your linux partition from windows?
[00:56] <|david|> nickrud: you beat me to it!!!!
[00:57] <nickrud> |david|: it's a text replace for me , lheaders :)
[00:57] <|david|> spudgunner: init.d
[00:57] <scrambledegg> jw144000: umm.. in a terminal.. remember to run it as superuser
[00:57] <jw144000> MrPiracy: No, I want to be able to access my external hard drive in Windows again. Currently, only Linux will recognize it.
[00:57] <Montego> Is there a way to share more mem with my geforce 5200 vid card other than the 32mb allowed in the bios?
[00:57] <dr-raku> jw144000: if you are in windows right now, you can use disk management or fdisk to erase the partitions on the external drive and create other partitions (then format them)
[00:57] <MrPiracy> jw144000: is your external hd partitioned? any fat/ntfs partition in it?
[00:57] <|david|> jw144000: you have to format it to fat32 or ntfs
[00:58] <scrambledegg> jw144000: i wouldnt go for ntfs
[00:58] <nickrud> spudgunner: create the file ~/.config/compiz/compizconfig/disable , that will stop compiz
[00:58] <oreomike> jw144000 or you can get the ext2fs driver for windows
[00:58] <mjw-> jw144000 mkdosfs -F 32 /dev/XXX
[00:58] <oreomike> its made by the same people that made putty
[00:58] <jw144000> MrPiracy: Currently, I have no fat32 or ntfs partitions on my external hard drive.
[00:58] <mjw-> probably have to use sudo too
[00:58] <MrPiracy> oreomike: where do i get this driver?
[00:58] <gigaclon> im using the CUPS web interface at localhost:631 and when i try to add a printer, it pops a username/password, I enter my username and password and it rejects it
[00:58] <gigaclon> only account
[00:58] <|david|> scrambledegg: true enough, some people still like their win-dos though
[00:58] <jw144000> I'm in Windows at the moment
[00:59] <xSnOoPyx> hey can anyone help me out, i accidently set the permissions of /etc to 440 yes i know im stupid PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME, im in the ubuntu livecd because ubuntu wont boot
[00:59] <dr-raku> jw144000, then go to disk management
[00:59] <mjw-> jw144000 "Disk Management" in "computer management" should be able to see the drive, and you can reformat it from there
[00:59] <MrPiracy> jw144000: if you don't have partitions windows can read (f.e.: fat, fat32, ntfs), windows will always tell you there's no partitions in that drive
[00:59] <gtt> i installed a new hard drive today, and i'm confused by the output of "df -h" ?
[00:59] <oreomike> MrPiracy, google? ;-)   http://sourceforge.net/projects/ext2fsd
[00:59] <spudgunner> nickrud:  thanks, hopefully that will fix it
[00:59] <dr-raku> jw144000, or simply use fdisk
[00:59] <scrambledegg> |david|: its just those problems with ntfs and linux
[00:59] <|david|> xSnOoPyx: cd /
[01:00] <giantmidget> hello. on #fluxbox ive been told that the ubuntu package for fluxbox is broken (is was trying to find out why my iconbar images are all garbled). is there a remedy for that?
[01:00] <jw144000> dr-raku: I tried accessing "Disk Management", and I can't for some reason.
[01:00] <dr-raku> jw144000, disk management is in the administrative tools (control panel)
[01:00] <xSnOoPyx> uh huh
[01:00] <scrambledegg> |david|: ubuntu hardy screwed up my windows partition yesterday
[01:00] <xSnOoPyx> Then |david| ?
[01:00] <|david|> xSnOoPyx: then chmod 777 /etc
[01:00] <vix> scrambledegg and jrib: thank you for your help... java works flawlessy in firefox32 now :)
[01:00] <|david|> xSnOoPyx: then chmod 777 etc
[01:00] <Phildo> |david|: he'd want to mount it first
[01:00] <scrambledegg> jw144000: dont go for ext2fs either
[01:00] <|david|> sorry
[01:00] <dr-raku> jw144000, then you could erase the ext partitions from fdisk
[01:00] <Montego>  Is there a way to share more mem with my geforce 5200 vid card other than the 32mb allowed in the bios?
[01:00] <scrambledegg> jw14400: FAT32 is safest..
[01:00] <|david|> Phildo: true
[01:00] <xSnOoPyx> wait no
[01:00] <astro76> xSnOoPyx: 755
[01:00] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: you are in a world of hurt, there's a lot of dirs and files in there with specialized permissions
[01:00] <scrambledegg> vix: np
[01:01] <xSnOoPyx> no the thing is is that, im in livecd right now
[01:01] <astro76> xSnOoPyx: yes like nickrud said, if you recursively changed permissions, you're in trouble
[01:01] <Phildo> nickrud: i doubt he used -R :>
[01:01] <xSnOoPyx> i cant boot into ubuntu
[01:01]  * nickrud can only hope
[01:01] <xSnOoPyx> yes i recursively changed htem
[01:01] <Phildo> haha
[01:01] <xSnOoPyx> it worked 777
[01:01] <gtt> can someone explain to me why my /home partition has a size of 449gb, used space of 199mb, and free space of 426gb ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55429/
[01:01] <xSnOoPyx> but sudo didnt
[01:01] <cy__> hello
[01:01] <xSnOoPyx> so gosh darn it
[01:01] <Phildo> not cool
[01:01] <xSnOoPyx> anyone know what to do in this situation?
[01:01] <Draicone> su doesn't seem to be working for me -- I know my root password, and I can sudo -i, I just can't su
[01:02] <Draicone> Any ideas?
[01:02] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: you will need to reinstall, it would take days to repair that
[01:02] <Phildo> Draicone: theyre not the same thing
[01:02] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: of hunting down the right permissions, etc
[01:02] <Draicone> Phildo: Err... what does su do?
[01:02] <xSnOoPyx> oh gotcha.
[01:02] <xSnOoPyx> but uh
[01:02] <Phildo> Draicone: actually changes your user to the real 'root'
[01:02] <mjw-> !sudo | Draicone
[01:02] <ubotu> Draicone: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[01:02] <xSnOoPyx> what about all my settings and files?
[01:02] <scrambledegg> Draicone: su asks for the root password, which ubuntu doesnt have by default
[01:02] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: do you have a separate home partition?
[01:02] <|david|> Draicone: it switches your user to another in the terminal
[01:02] <Phildo> Draicone: whereas sudo keeps your user, but gives you root permissions.
[01:02] <xSnOoPyx> what do you mean?
[01:02] <xSnOoPyx> yes
[01:03] <Phildo> Draicone: thus 'sudo' root :
[01:03] <Phildo> :>
[01:03] <xSnOoPyx> "/home" if thats what you mean
[01:03] <|david|> use su like this- su USERNAME
[01:03] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: then when you reinstall, tell the installer not to format your home partition and all your settings (except for the stuff in etc) will be kept
[01:03] <LadyNikon> anyone run though this yet? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75978&highlight=bluetooth+headset
[01:03] <xSnOoPyx> gotrcha
[01:03] <xSnOoPyx> and where does it come to that
[01:03] <xSnOoPyx> ?
[01:03] <Draicone> scrambledegg: I'm pretty sure I set the root password manually at one point
[01:03] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: during the partitioning phase
[01:03] <xSnOoPyx> ah
[01:03] <xSnOoPyx> okay im on step 7
[01:04] <xSnOoPyx> sorry
[01:04] <|david|> that will switch the user to your user as ROOT priviledges, and it'll work
[01:04] <xSnOoPyx> step 4
[01:04] <xSnOoPyx> i choose manual partitioning?
[01:04] <Draicone> Phildo: So what password is sudo -i asking me for?
[01:04] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: yes
[01:04] <scrambledegg> Draicone: set it again :)   sudo passwd root
[01:04] <jw144000> dr-raku: I'm in Disk Management, but Windows still isn't recognizing the drive; I don't see the drive letter.
[01:04] <Phildo> Draicone: your user password.
[01:04] <xSnOoPyx> right
[01:04] <scrambledegg> Draicone: but i dont recommend it
[01:04] <xSnOoPyx> and now, how do i specify
[01:04] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: I don't do a lot of installs, so I can't really walk you through the exact commands
[01:04] <Phildo> Draicone: as your user has been allowed (in /etc/sudoers) to use sudo root.
[01:04] <xSnOoPyx> oh
[01:05] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: plus, I use the alternate install when I do :)
[01:05] <mjw-> jw144000 Windows should still be able to see the disk, even if it's in an unrecognized format.
[01:05] <Phildo> Draicone: all that auth is for, is to make sure you are authorised as that user. (and someone hasnt stolen your term etc)
[01:05] <xSnOoPyx> partition is ext3 right ?
[01:05] <jarred> you can do sudo su if you want to become root in terminal without having to keep typing sudo
[01:05] <m0u5e> anyone know what the gtk2 dev files are called?
[01:05] <xSnOoPyx> thats what type it is ?
[01:05] <jarred> prolly like gtk2-devel
[01:05] <jarred> or gtk-dev
[01:05] <jarred> ot somtething
[01:05] <gtt> jarred: i think "su -" will also work instead.
[01:05] <Dr_willis> sudo -s or sudo -i  :)
[01:05] <jw144000> mjw: I see it now. So where do I go from here?
[01:06] <LjL> gtt: uh? no, it won't, as there is no valid root password
[01:06] <Phildo> just use sudo -s
[01:06] <bad_cables> anyone use muddleftp >?
[01:06] <Phildo> :>
[01:06] <mjw-> jw144000 try right clicking it or something, should give you a format option.
[01:06] <LjL> !rootshell
[01:06] <ubotu> Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous)
[01:06] <gtt> ah..
[01:06] <nickrud> sudo -i , be a real root
[01:06] <bad_cables> im having a problem... i get err 503 invalid password
[01:06] <gtt> learn soemthing all the time
[01:06] <Phildo> ;) get a real root, sudo -i
[01:06] <bad_cables> i set the password tons of times with mudpass
[01:06] <Draicone> Ah, got it. Thanks Phildo, scrambledegg, |david|
[01:06] <xSnOoPyx> nickrud, is that right ?
[01:06] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: yes
[01:07] <bad_cables> muddleftp?
[01:07] <m0u5e> nvm i found it
[01:07] <MrKeuner> hi, I am having lockups on my thinkpad r52 1849-4wu laptop. It should not be related to video card(ATI Card) driver since I freeze occurs both when on fglrx and on free software driver. It should not be related to wireless driver because it freezes when it is hard connected, too. After freeze I booted with an Ubuntu live CD and tarred the /var/log folder. But inspecting the logs I could not see anything interesting. Can Anybody help me/assist me tr
[01:07] <MrKeuner> acking this problem, please?
[01:07] <MrPiracy> what's the path to the file where system folders are located (Desktop, downloads, music, ...)?
[01:07] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: that is, if you mean ext3. Do not do anything to the partition that /home is on, except identify it as /home
[01:07] <mjw-> MrPiracy /home/$USERNAME ... aka "~"
[01:07] <LadyNikon> bah
[01:08] <rdoursenaud> ok forget my previous question, it was locked. unlocked it in gconf-editor
[01:08] <jarred> is there any way of converting ntfs to ext3 without loosing dat
[01:08] <nickrud> jarred: no
[01:08] <MrPiracy> mjw-: no, I want the configuration file ubuntu uses to get these paths
[01:08] <scrambledegg> has anyone tried out the new version of truecrypt ?
[01:08] <scrambledegg> which has a gui btw

[01:09] <jarred> whats journaling
[01:09] <oreomike> you can't remove a password, but you can have it auto-login as that user
[01:09] <Skunkwaffle> anyone know any good video editing software?
[01:09] <xSnOoPyx> nickrud, it wont let me continue the installation,
[01:09] <Phildo> lack of it means lots of errors when you dont shutdown cleanly
[01:09] <hentaixp> jarred, I suggest wikipedia
[01:09] <mjw-> MrPiracy beats me, not sure if that's configurable with a simple file or not.
[01:09] <nickrud> jarred: journalling between 2 and 3, and max file size (2gb limit to vfat) as a minimum diff
[01:10] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: I do not know the live cd at all
[01:10] <vix> jarred, fat32 is an old file system that was used in windows OS but also works in many linux systems like ubuntu.
[01:10] <MrPiracy> what's the path to the configuration file ubuntu uses to find system folders like Desktop, downloads, music, ...?
[01:10] <hentaixp>  nickrud 4GB on fat32

[01:11] <hentaixp> why not, my windows user doesn't need a password to login?
[01:11] <jarred> howcome when i delete files on my ntfs drive using nautilus they donot free up space
[01:11] <nickrud> hentaixp: did I type 2? doh. (me claims aged brain thinking old days, sometimes forgetting when 1.2m was max
[01:11] <jarred> and they only actulley delete when i do rm-rf
[01:11] <xSnOoPyx> It just says "No root file system is defined"
[01:11] <MrPiracy> mjw-: i think it is, i saw it today ... i was having another problem and someone asked me the contents of this file
[01:11] <MrPiracy> mjw-: but i cant remember where it was
[01:11] <xSnOoPyx> anybody else know how to do this
[01:11] <Dr_willis> hentaixp,  you can set up a user ith no password.. and i imagine that will cause all sorts of other issues. You can set up X to auto login a specific user.
[01:11] <nickrud> jarred: look for a .Trash dir on the ntfs partition
[01:11] <jarred> ok
[01:12] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: then you haven't set up a root partition, the one that goes on   /   .
[01:12] <hentaixp> jarred, suggest you share a ext3 dir with linux and windows instead
[01:12] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: and be sure that it's not the same as /home
[01:12] <mjw-> MrPiracy check the link ubotu directed you to...that may be able to help
[01:12] <hentaixp> Dr_willis, I said a user not root account
[01:12] <bad_cables> anyone familiar with muddleftp?
[01:12] <nickrud> I wonder just how safe writing with that ext2 driver in windows is
[01:12] <SniperFromHell> Any good instant messaging programs beside Pidgin and kopete?
[01:12] <hentaixp> Sometimes I do think ubuntu if backwards
[01:13] <jarred> is there any way of backing up my home folder and restoring it without having to reinstall ubuntu
[01:13] <bad_cables> muddleftp... i need help creating a user because this really sucks
[01:13] <Dr_willis> hentaixp,  you can set up/make/disable the password on a user account.
[01:13] <hentaixp> ah ok
[01:13] <bad_cables> i wouldnt be in here begging for help if there were any documentation on this one...
[01:14] <nickrud> jarred: tar bcf home-backup.tar.bz2 /home  . Make sure you are doing that in a directory that is not in home and has a lot of space. Or, install sbackup
[01:14] <MrPiracy> mjw-: it doesnt mention this file, i want to change the location of default download folder
[01:15] <benny269> hi does anyone know how to get out of an infinite loop in octave?
[01:15] <MrPiracy> nickrud: what does this command do? packs the hole /home folder into a tar file?
[01:15] <xSnOoPyx> hmm, have you seen this guide http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=620016&highlight=reset+permissions that might work
[01:15] <nickrud> MrPiracy: yes, and compresses it as a bzip
[01:16] <nickrud> MrPiracy: tar stands for tape archive , made just for this purpose ;)
[01:16] <mjw-> MrPiracy what you could do is create your directory wherever you want downloads to go and then use ln to create symbolic link for ~/Downloads to point to the location you really want the files to be
[01:16] <LordMat> irc.undernet.org
[01:16] <benny269> hi does anyone know how to get out of an infinite loop in octave?
[01:16] <MrPiracy> ln --help
[01:16] <Pirate_Hunter> back again I finally ionstalled Vidalia in gutsy but when ever I try to make it work with tor it doesnt respond, it seems like tor is working independently from vidalia how can I solve this?
[01:16] <MrPiracy> mjw-: will this command help?
[01:16] <mjw-> mrpiracy i.e.  ln -s ~/Downloads /real/path/to/downloads/folder
[01:17] <ethan961> infinate loop as in apple hq?
[01:17] <xSnOoPyx> Nickrud, can you see my previous link?
[01:17] <hon> benny269: I guess if C-c doesn't work, you don't have many options
[01:17] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: probably not
[01:18] <ag0g0girl> ppc people here?
[01:18] <hon> you are worried about losing results?
[01:18] <nickrud> ag0g0girl: yes, and also #ubuntu-ppc (real small but smart crew there)
[01:18] <benny269> hon: whenever i do that it shuts the whole program down, very annoying, i cant work with my program that way, any ideas?
[01:18] <MrPiracy> mjw-: lol, i typed the wrong path and now it says " file already exists"  when i try again
[01:19] <xSnOoPyx> nickrud, do you know how to access my old dirrectories through the terminal
[01:19] <ag0g0girl> cool thank nickrud
[01:19] <mjw-> MrPiracy well your ~/Downloads directory already exists, you'll have to delete it to make a link of the same name that points elsewhere
[01:19] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: from the live cd? or where?
[01:20] <jarred> can  i integrate programs in a ubuntu cd
[01:20] <Phildo> hrm - my hdd/installation appears in the install disc, but doesnt show up at all in dmesg on boot.. and dumps me to a shell.. :/ unsure what its missing, the kernel certainly hasnt been replaced..
[01:20] <xSnOoPyx> from the live cd
[01:20] <rdavila> hi firends!
[01:20] <rdavila> I'm trying to configure gutsy to work with 2 graphics cards and two monitors, but I have not succeeded, maybe someone can help me?
[01:20] <Pirate_Hunter> back again I finally installed Vidalia in gutsy but when ever I try to make it work with tor it doesnt respond, it seems like tor is working independently from vidalia how can I solve this?
[01:20] <benny269> hon: whenever i do that it shuts the whole program down, very annoying, i cant work with my program that way, any ideas?
[01:20] <kdallas> Hi guys! Q: if I have a hosts file to block access to certain sites, where could I place it to become effective in gusty? Thanks
[01:21] <mjw-> rdavila try getting it to work with one card and one monitor at first
[01:21] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx:   sudo mount /dev/<device>  -t auto /mnt   ,  where device is the partiton you want to read. Then cd /mnt and you will see them.
[01:21] <rdavila> here is my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/4398/
[01:21] <hon> benny269: while 1 ; end <return> C-c
[01:21] <jarred> is there any way of integrating a program into the ubuntu cd
[01:21] <Pirate_Hunter> it seems vidalia cant find the tor config file to start with it
[01:21] <hon> this does not close octave for me
[01:21] <scrambledegg> kdallas: /etc
[01:21] <rdavila> hi mjw: but it work fine on windoze
[01:21] <hon> benny269: what version do you have?
[01:21] <K_Dallas> scrambledegg, thanks
[01:21] <benny269> hon: 0.65
[01:21] <rdavila> this is my output of lspci:
[01:21] <rdavila> 00:09.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV5M64 [RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro] (rev 15)
[01:21] <rdavila> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2)
[01:21] <mjw-> rdavila so what happens with this config file? (I didn't realize you were this far along already)
[01:22] <xSnOoPyx> nickrud, how do you find out the device name though ?
[01:22] <MrPiracy> mjw-: thanks, it works :)
[01:22] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx:   sudo fdisk -l  in a terminal will list all the partitions on all the devices
[01:22] <hon> benny269: what??!! I haven't seen octave before 2.1 (I have 3.0 now)
[01:22] <mjw-> MrPiracy no problem
[01:22] <mjw-> MrPiracy ln -s is your friend ;)
[01:22] <hon> benny269: octave --version gives you 0.65 ??!!
[01:23] <benny269> hon: sorry i mean koctave, not sure how to check version of octave
[01:23] <Hirvinen> A local root exploit in Gentoo. In Ubuntu as well: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209460
[01:23] <rdavila> mjw-: I think that ubuntu recognizes the card but not the monitor.
[01:23] <Jangari> is it possible to mount an sshfs server automatically on login?
[01:23] <hon> benny269: in a terminal : octave --version
[01:23] <rdavila> here is a screenshot of nvidia-settings: http://img209.imageshack.us/my.php?image=nvidiabg8.png
[01:23] <mjw-> rdavila when x starts...does only one screen come up? neither?
[01:23] <nickrud> xSnOoPyx: I gotta go eat, bbl.
[01:24] <rdavila> mjw-, yeah, only one screen come up
[01:24] <benny269> hon: 2.1.73
[01:24] <mjw-> rdavila nvidia-settings may not recognize the TNT2 card, that's getting kind of old. I'm guessing only the Geforce2MX card only comes up?
[01:25] <hon> benny269: can you try this in the terminal: octave <ret> while 1 ; end <ret> C-c
[01:25] <hon> does it close it?
[01:25] <jarred> is there any way to integrate programs into an ubuntu cd to install
[01:25] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone help me get vidalia working please :( ?
[01:25] <hon> jarred: you want a customized ubunut CD. there are many ways, I guess.
[01:25] <rdavila> mjw-, yeah, only the Geforce2MX come up
[01:26] <jarred> is there any programs with a decent gui like nlite
[01:26] <jarred> like a nlite for ubuntu
[01:26] <scrambledegg> Hirvinen: shit the exploit works
[01:26] <mjw-> rdavila i'm not familiar with nvidia cards/x.org servers...is the nvidia server the proprietary NVidia driver?
[01:26] <benny269> hon: yeah that breaks the loop
[01:26] <xSnOoPyx> Alright I have set permissions completely at 777
[01:26] <benny269> hon: in koctave C-c first time beeps, C-c beeps and warns 1 more time will abort, 3rd time it closes koctave
[01:26] <mjw-> mjw- because it might not support the TNT2...that's getting kind of old. the "nv" server might work with it.
[01:27] <mjw-> er, that last one was directed to you rdavila
[01:27] <xSnOoPyx> alright thanks nickrud for all your help see you later
[01:27] <scrambledegg> even with the newest kernel in hardy
[01:27] <aztracker1> for future reference http://frugalcoder.us/post/2008/02/Setting-up-mod_mono-(ASPNet-20)-on-Ubuntu-710-(Gutsy-Gibbon).aspx
[01:27] <xSnOoPyx> hey does anyone know how people address each other with the big box around it ?
[01:27] <rdavila> mjw-: I was not much of this, because it seems to me that if the driver "nvidia" and not "nv"
[01:27] <Hirvinen> Mentioned exploit works also at least on older 2.6.17-12. Not on 2.6.20-16 though.
[01:28] <rdavila> mjw-: then i try to change from ''nvidia to 'nv' for this device?
[01:28] <jarred> is there any gui programs thajt let you integrate programs into an ubuntu cd
[01:28] <benny269> hon: tried running the program in terminal and same thing happens, C-c 3 times necessary to end process but ended octave instance as well
[01:28] <mjw-> rdavila yes...change line 93 to Driver "nv"
[01:29] <rdavila> mjw-: thanks, i come back ;)
[01:29] <mjw-> rdavila ok, let me know
[01:29] <hon> benny269: do you use the features provided by koctave? I recommend using a text editor like emacs or vim with octave in terminal (or in emacs). That keeps things a lot leaner and more reliable. That's how most people I know use octave.
[01:29] <gigaclon> only account
[01:29] <MrPiracy> anyone knows if there's an updated version for intel video cards for gutsy? i've tried both i810 and intel but they're kinda buggy
[01:29] <gigaclon> im using the CUPS web interface at localhost:631 and when i try to add a printer, it pops a username/password, I enter my username and password and it rejects it
[01:29] <hon> benny269: I also do the same with matlab.
[01:30] <benny269> hon: i was using koctave for familiarity with the matlab interface, no other reason. emacs is better?
[01:30] <Dr_willis> gigaclon,  what re;ease of ubuntu?  The older releases had a bug where that interface dident work properly.
[01:30] <gigaclon> the LTS
[01:30] <Hirvinen> !ops | Sorry, if I infringe on policy, but I think this locals root exploit, https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209460 , works at least on Hardy 2.6.24-7 and Edgy 2.6.17-12. I think it would be topic-worthy.

[01:31] <Dr_willis> gigaclon,  yep. thats the problem then i belive. You may want to check the forums/google to find the work around - or dont use the cups web interface.. I think you could set the root password also. BUt thats frowned upon.
[01:31] <hon> benny269: I found that I actually don't need the matlab interface either. Matlab was too buggy and slow for certain GUI things.
[01:31] <Hirvinen> PriceChild: I'll do it, but informing users of something of this severity is very important.
[01:31] <Pal__> hi
[01:32] <benny269> hon: okay what did you find best. i'm open to suggestions. edit in emacs, run in terminal?
[01:32] <gigaclon> well i have to use the Web interface to install this Epson CX8400
[01:32] <Karoo> hy everybody
[01:32] <Karoo> I have a problem
[01:32] <Karoo> so, Kad: firewalled
[01:32] <Karoo> and I do not know how to do
[01:32] <hon> benny269: I recommend you seriously try emacs + octave. (don't get pissed off first. emacs takes a bit of time to get used to it. Once that's done you will never consider anything else)
[01:33] <Karoo> can anyone help me?
[01:33] <Karoo> thanks in advance
[01:33] <benny269> hon: what is emacs?
[01:33] <Starnestommy> benny269: a text editor
[01:33] <Starnestommy> with a lot of features
[01:33] <mjw-> rdavila any luck?
[01:33] <benny269> which version do i want to use?
[01:33] <hon> benny269: aptitude install emacs22-gtk emacs22-el
[01:34] <benny269> thank you
[01:34] <rdavila> mjw-: nop :(
[01:34] <rdavila> mjw-: only one screen come up
[01:34] <gigaclon> !root
[01:34] <ubotu> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[01:34] <hon> benny269: also there is this wiki : www.emacswiki.org, this irc channel #emacs, and the whole history of free software rotating around emacs. it is kind of hard to miss!
[01:34] <KiD_ChAoS> what do you prefer network manager or wicd
[01:34] <mjw-> rdavila the TNT2 is a PCI card I'm guessing?
[01:34] <gigaclon> this computer isn't on enough to hack
[01:35] <rdavila> mjw-: yes, is a PCI card
[01:35] <rdavila> mjw-: the other is a VGA card
[01:36] <benny269> hon: thanks a lot, i need general help with a problem im trying to program, quite basic matlab stuff. do you know where i can get help with that? irc channel is dead...
[01:36] <KiD_ChAoS> what do you prefer network manager or wicd
[01:36] <KiD_ChAoS> has anyone used wicd......
[01:36] <unagi> anyone know how to use google earth with gps?
[01:36] <mjw-> rdavila the geforce2mx is an AGP card, you mean?

[01:36] <rdavila> mjw-: yeah, the Geforce is a AGP card
[01:37] <MrPiracy> how do i know if ubuntu is using graphic acceleration?
[01:37] <lz7> witepa: get your money back
[01:37] <mjw-> rdavila make sure the nv driver is installed....sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-nv ... it should be though.
[01:37] <quitte_> hi. i just read the servercandy wiki page and wanted to ask about the status of te ssl certificates. does ubuntu have some tool for easz central certificate management?
[01:37] <Dr_willis> witepa,  you may want to tyr the alternative installer cd.
[01:38] <witepa> Dr_willis: Why is this?
[01:38] <mjw-> rdavila or you might try the vesa driver...if you can't get that server to work with it, you're unlikely to get it working I think
[01:38] <Dr_willis> witepa,  May be somthing odd with your hardware. or a bad cd burn.
[01:38] <Dr_willis> witepa,  ive had better luckj with the alt-cd,  on some hardware
[01:39] <unagi> KiD_ChAoS: i use wicd
[01:39] <witepa> Dr_willis: I tried the same thing with an i386 cd.. but it did the same exact thing, does that say anything?
[01:39] <rdavila> mjw-: i should change 'nv' by 'vesa'?
[01:39] <mjw-> rdavila I have to get going though...hope you have luck with it at some point.
[01:39] <mjw-> rdavila yes
[01:39] <mjw-> rdavila you could also try a bit depth of 15 or 16
[01:39] <Dr_willis> witepa,  weird. I had one machine it wouldebnt boot up a ubuntu cd right, but it did a kubuntu cd. Not sure what the deal was with that.
[01:39] <Phildo> hrm... i dont see how grub lets linux boot from my drive, yet cant see it to mount partitions from...
[01:39] <rdavila> mjw-: ok man, very thanks ;)

[01:53] <putnu1> how can i configure vbox to accept rdp request from a host os such as linux? right now its running as a nat and the guest os has a ip of 10.x.x.x and the host a 192.x.x.x
[01:54] <putnu1> is there a conf file or something i need to configure?
[01:55] <micky> hello, can anyone point me to an ISCSI Howto ( setting up the host server ) ?
[01:55] <bluej774> I'm having trouble configuring the sudoers file properly.  Can anyone help me with it?
[01:55] <blackmouse> what is vbox?
[01:55] <unagi> i-scuzzy?
[01:55] <unagi> !vbox
[01:55] <ubotu> virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available in !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[01:56] <putnu1> anybody?
[01:56] <Kuwanger> putnu1: I thought the free version didn't support rdf.
[01:56] <Kuwanger> err, rdp
[01:56] <raygun> nope just getting the hang of it myself
[01:56] <unagi> it doesnt

[01:57] <hacked``> guys, whats the best window manager to use, that will show how cool ubuntu can be, to a first time user
[01:57] <hentaixp> hacked``, 1 time only
[01:57] <peabody`> hacked``: Uh...compiz I guess?  Whatcha looking for exactly?
[01:57] <putnu1> oh so vbix does not support rdp?
[01:57] <putnu1> vbox
[01:58] <unagi> vbox does support rdp
[01:58] <Kuwanger> putnu1: Not the free one, AFAIK.
[01:58] <unagi> but in the nonfree version
[01:58] <unagi> !free
[01:58] <ubotu> freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing
[01:58] <unagi> !nonfree
[01:58] <ubotu> When we use the term 'non-free', we mean that it is not Open Source. Software that is not open source cannot be fixed or improved by anyone except the software authors -- which is not us :(
[01:58] <putnu1> hmmm
[01:58] <putnu1> i guess i need to use vmware
[01:59] <putnu1> that sucks
[01:59] <hacked``> peabody, cool factor, ie. beryl
[01:59] <Geggeles> hi
[01:59] <pawan> hi
[01:59] <Kuwanger> putnu1: vmware is nonfree too.
[01:59] <hacked``> hentaixp, my first post did not make sense, if you re-read it. thanks for your concern
[01:59] <unagi> !vmware
[01:59] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", not available for Gutsy, only Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it.

It should not be related to video card(ATI Card) driver since I freeze occurs both when on fglrx and on free software driver.

[02:09] <Pelo> crusie, I thought you were asking on where to get one , I had assumed you had already checked in the repos

[02:13] <unagi> winnerrlz93: nothing in the bios
[02:13] <winnerrlz93> then why wont it boot?
[02:14] <echosystm> sdhc drives are backward compatible to sd, but sd is not forward compatible to sdhc
[02:14] <Pelo> winnerrlz93, what makes you think you need to play in the bios to boot ubuntu ?
[02:14] <Cromag> you never told us the real problem..

[02:14] <rabidweezle> winnerrlz93, did you install linux or windows first?
[02:14] <winnerrlz93> i had windows
[02:14] <unagi> winnerrlz93: did you turn it on?
[02:14] <Cromag> mm
[02:14] <winnerrlz93> i have windows
[02:14] <unagi> had?
[02:14] <unagi> so it was on first winnerrlz93?
[02:14] <winnerrlz93> yes
[02:14] <Kuwanger> Ah..so, all I have to do is wait for Seveaz.
[02:14] <unagi> whats the problem
[02:15] <winnerrlz93> ubuntu won't boot
[02:15] <fez> please be less specific
[02:15] <rabidweezle> did you just install ubuntu?
[02:15] <unagi> ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,oh i know whats wrong!
[02:15] <unagi> wait no i dont...
[02:15] <winnerrlz93> i can't
[02:15] <fez> then be more specific
[02:15] <Pelo> winnerrlz93,  you are trying to instal ubunt ?
[02:15] <winnerrlz93> it won't even in install
[02:15] <winnerrlz93> yes
[02:15] <rabidweezle> ooooh
[02:15] <rabidweezle> set your bios boot first to cdrom winnerrlz93
[02:15] <unagi> .......wow
[02:15] <unagi> im done
[02:16] <winnerrlz93> i tried that
[02:16] <rabidweezle> does it even try to boot the disc?
[02:16] <Pelo> winnerrlz93, ok , put the cd in , when you boot the computer hit F8 , to get the boot device selector and pick the cd to boot from
[02:16] <Cromag> winnerrlz93: what happwns..
[02:16] <fez> what proportion of the Desktop Linux market would you estimate that Ubuntu holds?
[02:16] <winnerrlz93> wat?
[02:16] <Pelo> fex about 6% we are told
[02:16] <Cromag> winnerrlz93: what happens..
[02:16] <rabidweezle> fez, guestimate of at least 50
[02:16] <unagi> winnerrlz93: what does it do
[02:16] <unagi> !doesnt work
[02:16] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:16] <dr-raku> market? :))
[02:16] <winnerrlz93> it just boots windows
[02:17] <fez> somewhere between 6% and 50% eh?
[02:17] <fez> all newb linuxes seem to run ubuntu
[02:17] <unagi> did you even install ubuntu?
[02:17] <Cromag> winnerrlz93: so it does not see the cdrom - did you burn it as the ISO it is ?
[02:17] <Pelo> winnerrlz93,  you'll have to check your computer's manual to figure out how to boot from the cd
[02:17] <fez> why isn't it called n00buntu
[02:17] <winnerrlz93> yes it's an iso file
[02:17] <unagi> winnerrlz93: what do you mean its an iso file
[02:17] <dr-raku> fez, maybe not all ubuntu guys are "newb" - as you think
[02:17] <rabidweezle> first off, just because it's easy to use doesn't mean it's *made* for newbs
[02:17] <winnerrlz93> when i open the cd in my computer it shows it as a iso
[02:17] <Cromag> winnerrlz93: i know, but you will need to burn it as an image.
[02:18] <winnerrlz93> ok?
[02:18] <jc> the logitech quckcam 5000 is suppsed to work out of the box but camora does work its says it can't connect to /dev/video0
[02:18] <Pelo> fez,  ubuntu is the current  superstart distro, it's easy to install and easy to use, it's a good starter distro for new linux users
[02:18] <unagi> did you burn the iso winnerrlz93?
[02:18] <winnerrlz93> i took the .rar file and burnt it to a c
[02:18] <winnerrlz93> cd
[02:18] <rabidweezle> second off, just because you run your own compiled version from the gnu tree and compiled everything yourself doesn't make you "1337"
[02:18] <unagi> omg winnerrlz93
[02:18] <Cromag> unagi: i think he did, as a data disk and not an iso/image
[02:18] <unagi> you have to burn the image to a cd
[02:19] <Pelo> winnerrlz93,   did you copy the .iso file to the cd or did you burn an image ?   .iso is a special format, it's a cd image , to make perfect copies of a cd,  it is not a file you burn to a cd
[02:19] <TheLastDodo> Yeah, after all gentoo's fine, but since most people use OSes for practical purposes, how many need that much control over their distro?
[02:19] <unagi> Cromag: i dont think hes ready for this
[02:19] <dr-raku> winnerrlz93, :)) you didn't burned the iso but burned the iso file instead
[02:19] <Cromag> unagi: oh i believe you are SO right.
[02:19] <rabidweezle> the only "1337" people are the developers that do the work of coding for no profit
[02:19] <winnerrlz93> oh ok
[02:19] <Leechzilla> I can't find my firewire port under hardware information. How do I search for it from Terminal? I want to buy a firewire harddrive but I'm not sure if it'll work with Ubuntu
[02:19] <glass-eye> does anyone have a workaround for the broken emdebian-tools package?
[02:19] <winnerrlz93> how do i burn it as an iso?
[02:19] <crusie> how do I install that flash thingie from adobe's webpage?
[02:19] <Starnestommy> winnerrlz93: you need some sort of cd burning program
[02:20] <winnerrlz93> does it need to be unzipped?
[02:20] <dr-raku> winnerrlz93, you should "burn image" in your burn application for that iso file
[02:20] <crusie> when I run the installer it says
[02:20] <Pelo> winnerrlz93, what software do you use to burn cds in windows ?
[02:20] <winnerrlz93> roxio
[02:20] <TheLastDodo> Leechzilla, it will. I've used something like 15 different firewire devices with my Ubuntu box with no trouble at all.
[02:20] <Cromag> cdburningxp.se will do it.
[02:20] <dr-raku> winnerrlz93, not put the iso file on the cd; it's not the same thing
[02:20] <pawan> hi
[02:20] <Pelo> winnerrlz93,  I dont, knoqw that one,  but check in the menus for a burn image  command
[02:20] <crusie> it says I have to get my admin to remove xpti.dat or something
[02:20] <Leechzilla> TheLastDodo: How do I find out if the port is Firewire 400 or Firewire 800?
[02:20] <fez> well i'll admit ubuntu's hardware compatibility is quite good
[02:20] <hentaixp> Leechzilla, their phsically different
[02:20] <TheLastDodo> Good question. One sec.
[02:21] <fez> however, trying to install it on my 500mhz p3 laptop was not happening
[02:21] <Leechzilla> Ah, okay
[02:21] <hentaixp> check wikipedia Leechzilla
[02:21] <fez> the installer was slower than mollasis
[02:21] <l00kp> Hi folks! Got a question at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55434/
[02:21] <Pelo> fez,  try with the alternate isntall cd but at 500 mhz you are stretching it a bit
[02:21] <macogw> fez: did you try the alternate cd?
[02:21] <winnerrlz93> do i have to extract the file?
[02:21] <fez> no
[02:21] <sme^> I have the same problem. I don't know how to burn an image. XP has Nero, but I got Alcohol 120 set it to burn image made the disk and it still wont work. Any ideas ?
[02:21] <crusie> Pelo: you still here ?
[02:21] <fez> you recon i should do you?

[02:22] <sme^> thx cromag
[02:22] <crusie> Pelo: it says I have to delete a file called xpti.dat or something
[02:22] <crusie> Pelo: I don't know where to find it
[02:22] <Cromag> winnerrlz93: try use imgburn, it is very simple.
[02:22] <Pelo> crusie, what are you doing again ?
[02:22] <dr-raku> winnerrlz93, daemon is just a virtual cd emulation/program; NO
[02:22] <winnerrlz93> kk brb

[02:23]  * rabidweezle notes to self that anyone who even thinks the word n00b needs to realize that in RL, no one gives a crap, because that same n00b could have that hottest wife, and be making 10 times the money you are, and doesn't have the time to learn a million things about his computer he just wants it to work
[02:23] <winnerrlz93> what about poweriso?
[02:23] <Pelo> crusie,  open a terminal and type  locate xpti.dat
[02:23] <dr-raku> winnerrlz93, yes
[02:23] <winnerrlz93> ok
[02:23] <crusie> tried that
[02:23] <crusie> Pelo: it doesn't find anything
[02:23] <CaPsULe> how can i make 512Mb swap?
[02:23] <TheLastDodo> rabidweezle: some people take computers far too seriously. :P
[02:23] <winnerrlz93> so if i take the files from the iso cd i mad how do i make into an iso image?
[02:23] <dr-raku> winnerrlz93, search for "burn image/iso" option on your burning app
[02:23] <rabidweezle> for real TheLastDodo
[02:24] <Leechzilla> hentaixp, my laptop specs state "(4pin) i.LINK® connector (IEEE 1394)", so that's Firewire 400, right?
[02:24] <Pelo> crusie, I have it in several temp folders under /home/user/.mozilla/firefox/.....default/
[02:24] <dr-raku> winnerrlz93, don't drag that iso file onto a new compilation/cd; it doesnt' work like that
[02:24] <l00kp> rabidweezel: my computer is my wife. She can be anything I want her to be. ^_^
[02:24] <hentaixp> yes Leechzilla
[02:24] <rabidweezle> it's just a tool, I don't see people going, if you aren't using a sears craftsman screwdriver you are a n00b
[02:24] <Leechzilla> 800 would have been nice :(
[02:24] <Pelo> crusie, and also in /usr/lib/firefox/components/
[02:24] <Cromag> winnerrlz93: you should have read a bit :) - you downloaded an ISO file from somewhere. That is what you have to use.
[02:25] <recon> fez: you ring?
[02:25] <crusie> Pelo: hmm so I guess my locate doesn't work ^^
[02:25] <l00kp>  rabidweezle notes to self that anyone who even thinks the word n00b needs to realize that in RL, no one gives a crap, because that same n00b could have that hottest wife, and be making 10 times the money you are, and doesn't have the time to learn a million things about his computer he just wants it to work
[02:25] <villnew> hey all, does anyone know of a way to stop NetworkManager from clobbering my /etc/resolv.conf file? Happy to have it do everything else it does
[02:25] <recon> fez: ...i'd rATHER YOU NOT.
[02:25] <Pelo> rabidweezle,  if you are using sears craftsman you are a noob.. stanley ftw
[02:26] <Pelo> crusie,  linux is case sensitive
[02:26] <crusie> Pelo: it's not to be found
[02:26] <rabidweezle> hehe, it was just an example, I don't use sears tools
[02:26] <Pelo> crusie,  maybe you donT' have any
[02:26] <fez> sorry i meant to say reckon
[02:26] <Pelo> crusie, you can also try with find
[02:26] <rabidweezle> I don't even think my tools have brands
[02:26] <fez> like those country fellas
[02:26] <speeddemon8803> Lilo LILO and LiLo are not the same file crusie :)
[02:26] <crusie> Pelo: still no sound tho
[02:26] <Pelo> rabidweezle, you are not getting out of it that easily,  you outed yourself
[02:26] <pawan> hi
[02:27] <SeekerX6> does flash work now?
[02:27] <crusie> Pelo: I got picture... so it must be install
[02:27] <Pelo> crusie, there is a search app in the places menu
[02:27] <speeddemon8803> Flash works in Hardy Heron
[02:27] <k1gwb> My computer just randomly shut off. It's done it twice now each time after running for about 12 hours. System log shows this "Feb  9 20:18:19 gwb01 syslogd 1.4.1#21ubuntu3: restart." when it booted back up but nothing unusual prior to it. Any way to figure out what made it shut off?
[02:27] <speeddemon8803> or you can find the fix on the forums
[02:27] <SeekerX6> does flash work on gusty gibbon?
[02:27] <speeddemon8803> for gutsy
[02:27] <Pelo> SeekerX6, yes
[02:27] <Pelo> for most
[02:27] <macogw> fez: yeah. the alternate cd is a text-based installer.  my system was very slow, but still a bit faster than windows when i did it.  xubuntu uses xfce which is like gnome but a bit lighter weight, so you might wanna get the altenrate xubuntu cd and install that
[02:27] <dr-raku> Seeker`, in GUTSY, yes it does
[02:27] <rabidweezle> pelo, getting out of what?
[02:27] <speeddemon8803> it does?
[02:27] <crusie> Pelo: tried that too... there simply isn't any file called that
[02:27] <macogw> speeddemon8803: there was an update today
[02:28] <SeekerX6> oh cool
[02:28] <speeddemon8803> really now
[02:28] <speeddemon8803> suhweet
[02:28] <rabidweezle> lol
[02:28] <speeddemon8803> thank you ubuntu gods!!!!

[02:28] <rabidweezle> ok lol
[02:28] <scratchme> Hi all.  I'm trying to run secpanel with scp, but when I put in my password, it closes.  Is there any way to freeze the output just before it closes?
[02:28] <speeddemon8803> i wasnt aware of the update thanks :)
[02:28] <Pelo> crusie, that's all I ahve on this subject
[02:28] <Pelo> !enter | speeddemon8803
[02:28] <ubotu> speeddemon8803: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!

[02:28] <unagi> anyone know how to recover your password for your nick on irc?
[02:29] <Starnestommy> unagi: go to #freenode and ask in there
[02:29] <speeddemon8803> im sorry that you feel that way, im also a beginner team member and ALSO know how to use the bot commands :)
[02:29] <rabidweezle> anyone remember the line with dpkg to reconfigure a package?
[02:29] <jasonUSA> i need help with runing network file on ubuntu with vlc
[02:29] <Pelo> MrUnagi, if you are already looged in you can just change it
[02:29] <Cromag> dpkg-reconfigure
[02:29] <Starnestommy> rabidweezle: dpkg-reconfigure package
[02:29] <SeekerX6> so if I install ubuntu-restricted-extras through add/remove - then that should get the flash working?
[02:29] <fez> very well
[02:29] <rabidweezle> thanks
[02:29] <fez> i will try the 7.10 alternate install cd
[02:29] <Cromag> hehe
[02:29] <Cromag> tough one ;)
[02:29] <MrUnagi> pelo it says that it was registered i dunno if i did but my passwords dont work
[02:29] <Pelo> fez,  I recommend you go for xubuntu , it is meant for older machines
[02:30] <Cromag> Pelo: thats the xfce something right ?
[02:30] <jasonUSA> when i try to play the movie with vlc and starts but no movie is played  and i could play the movie on windows can some one help?
[02:30] <Pelo> MrUnagi,  I was assuming you got identified automaticaly,  ask in #freenode
[02:30] <mike__> does any1 know the file id put ntfs-3g /dev/ect ect in to automaticcally mount a win partion at boot up?
[02:30] <Pelo> Cromag, yes,  I personnaly don'T care for it , but it is lighter
[02:30] <macogw> mike__: /etc/fstab
[02:31] <mike__> sweet thanks

[02:32] <crusie> Pelo: well maybe I should just learn to read what it says..
[02:32] <jasonUSA> with out copying the file
[02:32] <Pelo> Cromag, puppy linux is also good for older machine very light
[02:32] <Pelo> crusie, ?
[02:32] <fez> xubuntu eh? how does it differ
[02:32] <crusie> Pelo: I had to relog for it to wok :D
[02:32] <scratchme> I figured it out.  I needed TCL on the remote system.  thanks.
[02:32] <WorkingOnWise> is there any way to check if Compisite is on or off for the X server from the command line?
[02:33] <crdlb> WorkingOnWise: yup (looking it up, sec)
[02:33] <Pelo> jasonUSA, they all can , just mount the shared folder on your ubuntu machine
[02:33] <peabody> jasonUSA: are you trying to play movies from network shares or some such?
[02:33] <jasonUSA> ok so i go to the folder its in and right clik on the file and mount?
[02:33] <WorkingOnWise> crdlb: cool...ty, and where did u look...I hate asking these simple questions, but don't know where to look for the answers....
[02:34] <crdlb> WorkingOnWise: xdpyinfo -queryExtensions | grep -q Composite
[02:34] <crdlb> WorkingOnWise: look at /usr/bin/compiz :)
[02:34] <Pelo> jasonUSA,  can you see the folder from your computer ? yes ? ok,  open the app you want to read the file in and open the file from there
[02:34] <lulzturtle> Pelo, I've tried some port scanning sites. None of which could find any open ports. Will this keep me from connecting to my game server?
[02:34] <jasonUSA> ok
[02:34] <jasonUSA> i think i tryed that but ill do it agen
[02:34] <Pelo> lulzturtle, it shouldn't
[02:34] <jasonUSA> yes i can see it on my computer
[02:34] <Tyger> does anyone know why i can only get 24mb connection on my broadcom wireless?
[02:34] <jasonUSA> ty guys so much i love ubuntu
[02:34] <SeekerX6> Sweeeeeeeet.  Can watch youtube now.
[02:35] <lulzturtle> Pelo, I'm trying to connect to a dedicated server I made for Team Fortress 2. I wasn't sure if maybe ports were blocked.
[02:35] <speeddemon8803> does anybody know why my inte/pro wireless 3945ABG cuts the connection off randomly?
[02:35] <speeddemon8803> nobody on windows could figure it out, hp, or intel
[02:35] <dhinesh> hi
[02:35] <speeddemon8803> it happens on windows and linux
[02:35] <peabody> Tyger: Broadcom cards are pretty finicky.  Are you using the open source driver or the windows driver in ndiswrapper?
[02:35] <Pelo> lulzturtle, when you connect to a game server you are the one making the connection and the ports are opened accordingly , or some such,  I 'm not the best person to ask
[02:35] <jasonUSA> i dont see my network link on the vlc open file screen
[02:35] <lulzturtle> Pelo, Okey, thanks :)
[02:36] <Tyger> peabody: im using the bcm43xx-fwcutter...i dont think ive installed ndiswrapper
[02:36] <jasonUSA> buy i see in natuols
[02:36] <speeddemon8803> nautilus?
[02:36] <macogw> lulzturtle: ubuntu does not listen on any ports by default, so *inbound* connections are rejected.  outbound is wide open
[02:36] <Pelo> lulzturtle, try finding a channel for the game itself,  maybe you need to adjust some setting in the game
[02:36] <Drewnl09> can someone tell me why I can't get a connection to the internet with airport on my macbook when i use ubuntu live cd?
[02:36] <jasonUSA> yes
[02:36] <jasonUSA> sorry]
[02:36] <Pelo> laterfolks
[02:36] <Tyger> peabody: im only 10ft from my router and i can only get 61% connection...
[02:36] <echosystm`> is ftp ok to use on a lan, rather than smb?
[02:37] <echosystm`> i kind of can't be bothered setting up samba lol
[02:37] <macogw> speeddemon8803: the file browser and the thing that shows the bg image in gnome
[02:37] <Tyger> peabody: should i try the ndiswrapper?
[02:37] <speeddemon8803> tyger, i cant get ANY connection to my own router from my pc.
[02:37] <lulzturtle> macogw, so does that mean if the server I made on ubuntu has been told to use port 27015 for connections it will use it no problem?
[02:37] <macogw> lulzturtle: yep
[02:37] <peabody> Tyger: I would.  I have a broadcom and it behaves much better using the windows drivers with ndiswrapper
[02:37] <lulzturtle> macogw, Is there a way to test that?
[02:37] <macogw> lulzturtle: but if it's behind a router, you need to tell the router to forward that port to the server
[02:37] <speeddemon8803> Macogw i am aware of nautiuls, was just asking if i was reading it right.
[02:37] <macogw> speeddemon8803: oh ok sorry
[02:38] <Tyger> peabody: well i have the windows driver (bcmwl5.sys)....just not ndiswrapper...
[02:38] <lulzturtle> macogw, oh okey. I think it's behind my company's PIX router, probably out of luck in that case heh
[02:38] <dabbill> hurm i just installed swiftweasle32 but flash games seem to run in slow motion
[02:38] <macogw> lulzturtle: from outside you network you could try to telnet in on that port and if it connects, the port's open.  could also go to one of those websites that portscans you
[02:38] <speeddemon8803> As i said before I am very much so deep into ubuntu and linux...I definately know ubuntu like the back of my hand. :)
[02:38] <macogw> speeddemon8803: ive never seen your nick before *shrug*
[02:39] <lulzturtle> macogw, cool. I'd just love to get this Team Fortress 2 dedicated server running. I guess it's just not going to be :(
[02:39] <speeddemon8803> macogw...im a beginner forum team member..but thats ok, hardly anybody knows me. :)
[02:39] <peabody> Tyger: apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[02:39] <speeddemon8803> I am looked at as being a new user that doesnt know anything about the rules of the room or the forum...which is fine with me honestly.
[02:40] <jasonUSA> how how can i mount this movie file to play on my ubuntu comptuer?
[02:40] <WorkingOnWise> crdlb: will that return nothing if Composite is on?
[02:40] <lulzturtle> speeddemon8803, can you fix the kernel bug that keeps ubunut from running on my Dell Optiplex 320? hehe ;)
[02:40] <ConstyXIV> how do you use xrandr to vertically rotate your screen?
[02:40] <karlo> hi guys
[02:41] <karlo> i'm always posting at the absolute beginners thread
[02:41] <speeddemon8803> beginner team not kernel development lulzturtle ;)
[02:41] <crdlb> WorkingOnWise: it won't print anything either way, but it will return 0 if composite is on, and nonzero if it's off
[02:41] <lulzturtle> ubunut? lulz
[02:41] <jasonUSA> how how can i mount this movie file to play on my ubuntu comptuer?
[02:41] <karlo> hello...
[02:41] <ConstyXIV> jasonUSA: what sort of movie file?
[02:41] <speeddemon8803> thats a little beyond me lulzturtle :)
[02:41] <crdlb> WorkingOnWise: so you you just use thatcommand && something_that_requires_composite || run_this_if_no_composite
[02:41] <jasonUSA> i just want to play a movie like i did on windows its avi file
[02:41] <speeddemon8803> Hello karlo
[02:41] <crdlb> WorkingOnWise: or use an if statement
[02:42] <ConstyXIV> jasonUSA: it's not mount, just playing
[02:42] <jasonUSA> i try that
[02:42] <speeddemon8803> grrr my period key is broken!
[02:42] <jasonUSA> it opens but nothing is played
[02:42] <jasonUSA> im useing vlc
[02:43] <ConstyXIV> jasonUSA: install the "ubuntu-restricted-extras" package, then try to play it via totem
[02:43] <jasonUSA> ok
[02:43] <jasonUSA> i wil so
[02:43] <speeddemon8803> Note to user who said beginner team:If you are not getting answers from the forum of the beginner team please visit #ubuntuforums-beginners and ask in there. Thanks.
[02:44] <lulzturtle> speeddemon8803, can you help me run a dedicated steam server on ubuntu? I suck with the google and can't find any sites to help with the specifics of it :P
[02:44] <WorkingOnWise> crdlb: then that brings to another problem. I do not want composite on most of the time. Only if I am gonna show off Compiz-Fusion. I cant find how to turn it off in my xorg.conf. I have tried Composite "False" "Disabled" and "0", based on howto's and a person in the ##xorg channel....any ideas? Composite is stubborn. It wants to live!
[02:44] <karlo> i really need some help
[02:44] <jarred> is kde4 realy that good?
[02:44] <karlo> a few hours ago many are replying to my threads at ubuntu forums
[02:44] <karlo> now there are none
[02:44] <jarred> like
[02:44] <crdlb> WorkingOnWise: what is composite itself breaking? what video card?
[02:44] <speeddemon8803> I cant lulzturtle
[02:45] <dhinesh> jason> could u do that one
[02:46] <lulzturtle> that's cool speeddemon8803 :)
[02:46] <lulzturtle> well, it's bed time for the turtleman. Night everybody!
[02:46] <speeddemon8803> my poor wireless laptop barely has the capability to stay online let alone be a server :)
[02:46] <macogw> karlo: it's saturday night in the western hemisphere.  the americans are out partying and the europeans are asleep
[02:46] <speeddemon8803> goodnight turtleman :)
[02:47] <karlo> ah i see... here it's sunday morning
[02:47] <gtt> can someone explain to me why my /home partition has a size of 449gb, used space of 199mb, and free space of 426gb ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55429/
[02:47] <karlo> anyway if the terminal tells something like autoremove
[02:47] <karlo> do you think it's a good idea to remove it?
[02:47] <WorkingOnWise> crdlb: video is Nvidia 6100 in a laptop, works perfect. So much eyecandy my eye cavities have cavities :D But, I run 2 windows apps, both 3d, with wine. if I run them with compiz on, they break in strange ways. Wine is such a moving target still that i never know if the problem is wine or my app. Well, if composite is off totally, I cant accidentally run the apps with compiz enabled, and hopefull reduce my headaches
[02:47] <gtt> i mean, that's a difference of 15gigs which is a rather sizeable chunk?
[02:48] <dhinesh> jason> r u there
[02:48] <janne67> #ubuntu.fi
[02:48] <WorkingOnWise> crdlb: oh, the latest Nvidia proprietary drivers too..169.09 iirc
[02:48] <macogw>  karlo yes it means it was installed because something depended on it, but you removed whatever pulled it in, so now its just taking up space
[02:48]  * Kuwanger wonders why cpu usage spikes when switching windows.
[02:48] <ConstyXIV> karlo: autoremove means that another package depended on it, and that package was removed.  If you're not using it, you're clear

[03:17] <Kizzard> ok guys going to retry with the splash enabled again :)
[03:17] <mahmoud2> Nutubuntu: short answer: No
[03:17] <Kizzard> brb
[03:18] <Nutubuntu> thanks, mahmoud2 - I figured as much
 try
[03:18] <Nutubuntu> mahmoud2: is there a "long" answer that does not amount to "no"? ... :/
[03:18] <lhoerste> I'm looking for something that can make the desktop bigger than my screen (cause it's a TV and small) and then I can drag my mouse around the edges to move the viewing window. If someone could just tell me what this is called, that'd help a lot too.
[03:19] <mahmoud2> Nutubuntu: If there is not something that you can never return back and it is very important that do not bother ..
[03:19] <dev-null> i make script (!#bin/bash.....) and now wont to make different icon of its file. how  can i do it?
[03:20] <dabbill> i just went through the howto on the fourms, but still cant get sound from youtube.com videos
[03:20] <Jangari> lhoerste: if you hold super (windows/mac button) and scroll up or down, it should zoom,
[03:20] <Nutubuntu> mahmoud2: there is a fair amount of work there I wish I could recover ... I have been very annoyed with myself for making such a stupid mistake
[03:20] <lhoerste> Jangari: thanks
[03:20] <mahmoud2> Nutubuntu: Is it ext3?
[03:20] <lhoerste> Jangari: that doesn't work
[03:21] <Jangari> hmm, have you got compiz-fusion?
[03:21] <pocketwatch> lhoerste, if you just increase your screen resolution (to larger than actual) it should do what you want automatically
[03:21] <Nutubuntu> mahmoud2: yes, ext3 now (and ext3 before too, if that makes a difference)
[03:21] <lhoerste> pocketwatch: it's not giving a choice besides the default res
[03:22] <Jangari> pocketwatch: i suspect that larger screen resolutions won't be an option if the monitor doesn't support them
[03:22] <lhoerste> Jangari: yea that's true. the TV wont even work then
[03:22] <lhoerste> is there a program that can do what i'm asking?
[03:22] <pocketwatch> lhoerste, go to system > administration > screens and resolutions to set up resolutions first
[03:23] <lhoerste> i think it's like a "vitrually larger desktop?"
[03:23] <lhoerste> pocketwatch: there is only one res in that dropdown
[03:23] <mahmoud2> Nutubuntu: My advice is to spend time redoing that work than trying undelete software. AFAIK, ext3 is hard to recover (with the published tools
[03:23] <lhoerste> pocketwatch: oh actually this is a diff menu than I thought. Lemme try that
[03:23] <echosystm`> guys, if i am running fluxbox, would i be better off using gtk or qt apps?
[03:23] <Nutubuntu> mahmoud2: thank you again. I was afraid that must be true. :/
[03:23] <echosystm`> which one has the smaller libraries
[03:24] <hypercube> who use damn small linux here?
[03:25] <hrnt> there is this vmsplice exploit going around. can i just do apt-get upgrade protect my system?

[03:33] <Dr_willis> !beryl | Keddy
[03:33] <ubotu> Keddy: Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion.  New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz
[03:33] <LetsGo67> Keddy: Compiz first, then Beryl, then Compiz Fusion.
[03:33] <lhoerste> pocketwatch: awesome. at least I know I'm not crazy =)
