[02:13] <[Flux] > okay, ill try that
[02:13] <davisc> IndyGunFreak: You'd never know you were a yank :-p
[02:14] <IndyGunFreak> davisc: lol
[02:14] <RedRum> linus torvalds must be hella rich
[02:14] <eck> PanzerMKZ: i believe it is: write foo pts/0
[02:14] <sanityx> RedRum: Why?
[02:14] <[Flux] > Pelo, all unneeded dependencies are removed
[02:14] <PanzerMKZ> nope tried that
[02:14] <davisc> RedRum: Linux is free...
[02:14] <eck> PanzerMKZ: see also the mesg man page though, it needs to be enabled on your tty
[02:15] <PanzerMKZ> and /dev/pts/0
[02:15] <eck> RedRum: he is
[02:15] <sanityx> RedRum: Its not like he charges money for the linux kernel
[02:15] <[Flux] > the remaining dependencies are needed by other packages
[02:15] <RedRum> i know, i never hinted that
[02:15] <trippen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18176/ anyone ?
[02:15] <sanityx> RedRum: Although I imagine he could make a lot of money lecturing in computer science departments.
[02:15] <Pelo> [Flux] ,  have you tried asking for help in #vmware ?
[02:15] <nikin> ty :D i ame sure now that i will never-ever use non LTS release... i tryed to install 7.04 and after install i have seen that my WLAN cards driver is blaclisted couse the kernel, and after trying other WLAN card the whole system locked up and on next restart the system just dropped error messages... i am disapointed :(:(:(:(
[02:15] <RedRum> then we agree he's rich
[02:15] <eck> RedRum: he got a lot of money when red had and others had their IPOs
[02:15] <sanityx> I'd pay $50 ro here him lecture.
[02:15] <sanityx> to*
[02:15] <sanityx> hear*
[02:15] <[Flux] > oh, no i havent
[02:15] <RedRum> ok
[02:15] <[Flux] > ty Pelo
[02:15] <RedRum> so whats your problem, american?
[02:15] <davisc> sanityx: Well, he wouldn't accept a free trip to Ireland despite offer of Guinness :-(
[02:16] <sanityx> nikin: That has nothing to do with it not being LTS.
[02:16] <asdfhgerkjskjger> !frostwire
[02:16] <asdfhgerkjskjger> ...
[02:16] <RedRum> pwned
[02:16] <imbecile> is there anyway to get gdesklets to load in a seperate desktop?
[02:16] <sanityx> nikin: Non-lts releases aren't less stable. They just aren't updated for as long a period of time.
[02:16] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[02:16] <nikin> sanityx: i never encountered any problems like that in LTS
[02:16] <Makarius> Hi !
[02:16] <sanityx> nikin: because the LTS is a different version. It has nothing to do with the fact that it is LTS
[02:17] <MetalMessiah> i forgot the command to run frostwire
[02:17] <sanityx> nikin: Fiesty wouldnt boot for me at first even though 6.10 and 6.06 works fine. It doesnt prove anything.
[02:17] <hajiki> hey i need a good application similar to WinRar. I need to compress files and input a password to them....
[02:17] <Makarius> Hey , can anyone help me, I'm trying to compile ALSA from source, but I keep getting an error.
[02:17] <trippen> please help me fix this problem http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18176/
[02:17] <Tsuamia> MetalMessiah: Can you get frost wire on Ubuntu!?
[02:17] <sanityx> nikin: Actually it does prove one thing. It proves that dell uses crappy bioses.
[02:18] <eck> Makarius: have you tried #alsa?
[02:18] <ireverentReveren> so....... what did the package mantainers decide to randomly rename the "kernel-image" package line to?
[02:18] <ireverentReveren> and why?
[02:18] <sanityx> Tsuamia: http://www.frostwire.com/?id=downloads
[02:18] <Makarius> oh, I didn't know :)
[02:18] <BFrank> are the ubuntu isos on the ftp site?
[02:18] <sanityx> Tsuamia: There's an ubuntu/debian link.
[02:18] <Tsuamia> Sweet, thanks
[02:18] <davisc> BFrank: Yes, and the mirrors
[02:18] <nikin> sanityx: maybe your right :D i just hope that the next LTS will be released with no drivers blaclisted and with i855 ACPI support... wich worked in 6.06 and 6.10
[02:18] <Tsuamia> never thought you could get it
[02:18] <ireverentReveren> anyone know?
[02:19] <BFrank> where on the ftp site/
[02:19] <BFrank> ?
[02:19] <BFrank> I went to /ubuntu

[02:19] <Pakalaka> hi all, I've installed samba on a fresh install of ubuntu 704, and installed winbind with that.  What I discover is that after installing winbind i can no longer access samba shares, and if i uninstall it then i can access the shares again.  Anyone experienced this?
[02:19] <BFrank> I was looking for older releases of Ubuntu
[02:19] <nikin> sanityx: ? what about cell phone?
[02:20] <BFrank> since 7.0.4 is having problems with older hardware
[02:20] <sanityx> nikin: the only i855 i know is a nokia cell phone
[02:20] <jrib> I can't get my microhpone to work in Sound Recorder.  I have gotten it to work in Audacity by pointing it to /dev/dsp.  Are there any command line recording programs I can try?  Or a better program to use for troubleshooting my mic?
[02:20] <davisc> BFrank: Older versions are at the URL I posted
[02:20] <BFrank> ok
[02:20] <nikin> sanityx: maybe i ame wrong with the number :S its a Clevo m120c notebook with Pentim M dorthan CPU
[02:21] <ireverentReveren> what is the name of kernel packages in apt? for some reason "apt-cache search kernel-image" is not returning a list of kernels, only some random source packages. do i need to add a repository or something to upgrade my freaking kernel?
[02:21] <sanityx> nikin: ooooh.
[02:21] <eck> ireverentReveren: linux-image-generic
[02:21] <ireverentReveren> linux-image, thanks

[02:21] <mcrandello> Hi I'm tryong to compile something from source and it keeps telling me I don't have Freeglut or glut on the system. I installed both including the dev packages, any ideas what I need next?
[02:21] <trippen> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18176/ who can solve this issues ?
[02:21] <davisc> BFrank: I assume you are US based. If so, http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/ might be faster
[02:21] <ireverentReveren> got to love the random name changes they make in apt
[02:21] <mcrandello> Tsuamia: try typing frost then hitting tab from a console
[02:22] <h2o> davisc. are you talking to me?
[02:22] <nikin> it uses intel82855
[02:22] <Tsuamia> K, thanks
[02:22] <eck> ireverentReveren: yeah, but this random name change was actually made a few releases ago iirc
[02:22] <davisc> h2o: I don't think so...
[02:22] <h2o> well, can anyone help me
[02:22] <eboogie__> anyone have .tar.gz file for WICD?  seems like the site is down...

[02:23] <trippen> have i stumped the ubuntu room with this issue http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18176/
[02:23] <eck> mcrandello: if you know the name of the header that is required you can find out what package provides it with apt-file
[02:23] <h2o> Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy-updates/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)

[02:23] <MSTK> hi.  can anyone help me with upgrading to Feisty?  Whenever I update using the manager, the packages won't download.  The dialog claims that it's a network error.
[02:24] <MSTK> so is there any way I could download the packages manually and upgrade that way?
[02:24] <thingy> ireverentReveren, am curious...how come you switched from deb?
[02:24] <MSTK> I'm using Edgy Eft.
[02:24] <davisc> h2o: Weird. The file is there...
[02:24] <h2o> me too , except mine gives me that error
[02:24] <h2o> really?
[02:24] <[Flux] > woohoo problem fixed
[02:24] <h2o> um
[02:24] <[Flux] > did it by myself too :D
[02:24] <MarcN> h2o: it means you were editing /etc/apt/sources.list to point to a local directory, /usr/pluto/deb-cache/ and can't find Packages.gz
[02:24] <jonjon09> any one here that could help me with a webcam problem?
[02:24] <GrooveStix> hey folks
[02:24] <[Flux] > well a search of the forums
[02:24] <Makarius> Hey, I'm having trouble trying to compile ALSA, the ./configure works fine, but this is what I'm getting when doing a "sudo make" http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18177/
[02:24] <[Flux] > that i missed earlier
[02:24] <[Flux] > lol
[02:24] <GrooveStix> is there any way to remove the password prompt on the startup!
[02:24] <ireverentReveren> thingy just playing with ubuntu on my spare harddrive and looking to see if i like it. Still mixed feelings
[02:24] <h2o> what could I do to fix it
[02:24] <h2o> ?
[02:24] <mcrandello> eck looks like it wants freeglut.h but apt-file comes up empty handed
[02:24] <[Flux] > GrooveStix: no?
[02:24] <kbrooks> GrooveStix, yes.
[02:24] <nrdb> I get "http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)"
[02:24] <[Flux] > dont do it!
[02:24] <mcrandello> eck: That's an assumption though
[02:25] <[Flux] > lol
[02:25] <thingy> ireverentReveren, ok
[02:25] <jwilliam> how do you su -?
[02:25] <Dark_Knight209> anyone a beryl guru?
[02:25] <GrooveStix> how could I do it?
[02:25] <eck> !find freeglut.h
[02:25] <kbrooks> GrooveStix, but this is bad to do. do it from your home computer only.
[02:25] <ubotu> File freeglut.h found in freeglut3-dev
[02:25] <h4wk0> Makarius; You sure ./configure worked, no errors?
[02:25] <GrooveStix> yes!
[02:25] <MarcN> GrooveStix: look at gdm configuration.
[02:25] <eck> mcrandello: there you go ;-)
[02:25] <Dark_Knight209> see, i got beryl and now i have no frames on any windows
[02:25] <GrooveStix> I don't use this machine, it's onlyt for BOinc
[02:25] <Makarius> h4wk0, yeah, i'm pretty sure
[02:25] <demonspork> My computer is telling me that I have 1039.34 GB of "Free Space" and a partition that is 1020.38 GB and is "Healthy (Active)" and a partition that is 2041.66 GB and is "Healthy (Active)"
[02:25] <[Flux] > passwords = good , no passwords = hey imma be a zombie pc and DDOS the internet and not know it
[02:25] <Dark_Knight209> any clue howto fix this?
[02:25] <[Flux] > =/
[02:25] <h2o> man, half the people in here dont even talk
[02:25] <h2o> more like 3/4 dont talk
[02:26] <kbrooks> h2o, we talk
[02:26] <mcrandello> eck: freeglut3-dev is already the newest version. ;_;
[02:26] <jwilliam> may 7/8
[02:26] <demonspork> would an Ubuntu install fix that problem as stated before
[02:26] <[Flux] > h2o: thats a blessing lol
[02:26] <mcrandello> eck: I even install --reinstall'ed it
[02:26] <kenshin_i> hi, i am wondering if it's possible to play mp4 files in 7.04?
[02:26] <h2o> well, some should only speak for themseleves
[02:26] <[Flux] > do you know how crazy it would be, if everyone talked?
[02:26] <kenshin_i> i tried it, and the computer just freezes
[02:26] <h4wk0> !find libpq++.h
[02:26] <eck> mcrandello: weird, it must be in the wrong path or something
[02:26] <ubotu> Package/file libpq++.h does not exist in feisty
[02:26] <h2o> mp4 files eh? try VLC
[02:27] <MarcN> GrooveStix: system->admin->login
[02:27] <kenshin_i> tq h2o
[02:27] <Music_Shuffle> If everyone talked in here, it'd scroll even faster than it does, not that it bothers me now, but I know it drives some people nuts already.
[02:27] <[Flux] > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats#head-99259e1841e1e1262f4f71e0c72d5a51b3fb69e9
[02:27] <[Flux] > for mp4 files
[02:27] <GrooveStix> aha!
[02:27] <GrooveStix> found it!
[02:27] <thingy> GrooveStix, after the green peace peaceniks are done fighting the multinational corporations...theyre going to be coming after the BOINC users next...
[02:27] <GrooveStix> nice
[02:27] <h2o>  I love ubuntuguide.org
[02:27] <h2o> try it everybody
[02:27] <ireverentReveren> thingy the installer really bothers me. I download ubuntu and install.. at no point am I asked what desktop enviroment to install. Thats just silly. After downloading the iso, i get told that if I DONT want to install gnome i have to download a freaking different 700 meg image.  I was planning on usable esktop, instead i get gnome, and then have to apt-get install kde, rather than do that during the install
[02:27] <nrdb> Music_Shuffle: maybe we need to split this up into some sub-groups or something
[02:28] <GrooveStix> :)))
[02:28] <bruenig> ubuntuguide.org does recommend some hacky solutions in some areas
[02:28] <h2o> meh, dont mind it
[02:28] <mcrandello> eck: okay it's in /usr/include/GL I guess I have to hax the configure script to make it happy
[02:28] <eck> mcrandello: probably
[02:28] <demonspork> My computer is telling me that I have 1039.34 GB of "Free Space" and a partition that is 1020.38 GB and is "Healthy (Active)" and a partition that is 2041.66 GB and is "Healthy (Active)"
[02:28] <demonspork> would an Ubuntu install fix that problem as stated before
[02:29] <[Flux] > ireverentReveren: ubuntu is a GNOME distrobution
[02:29] <h2o> what's funny is Im running in ubuntu with kde window manager
[02:29] <ireverentReveren> thingy at least let someone install a minimal, no DE and let them install what they want, but that is not even given as an option, and anytime i bring it up, morons tell me to d/l a 700 meg imare rather than pass a flag to the install and then d/l a 200 meg DE
[02:29] <[Flux] > you are able to and encouraged to try other desktop enviroments
[02:29] <thingy> ireverentReveren, ah...ok well in the ubuntu, they have alternate cds which basically have an option to install a command line system...which is equiv to a deb base install...you can then choose your de now by installing a meta package like ubuntu-desktop/kubuntu-deskop/xubuntu-desktop etc.
[02:29] <mcrandello> eck: thanks for the help. It's been so long since I had to ./configure && make something I've grown dull around the edges
[02:30] <ireverentReveren> thingy [Flux]  my point is why not allow a non-DE install? why force a 700 meg download for arbitrary reasons?
[02:30] <nrdb> I am having a problem with synaptic I get the message "http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.gz: Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)" when tying to reload.  Can someone help ?
[02:30] <[Flux] > do what thingy said
[02:30] <[Flux] > you can do the command line installer
[02:30] <thingy> ireverentReveren, like you said...its a different way of working from deb...they are aiming for different types of users
[02:31] <h2o> http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/upgrade-ubuntu-edgy-to-feisty/
[02:31] <thingy> ireverentReveren, once you pick up on things like this, you _will_ find that they don't restrict choice!

[02:31] <[Flux] > i love GNOME =D
[02:31] <luke_> is there are way to see how fast ubuntu is running in terms of Frames per Second (FPS)?
[02:31] <[Flux] > i love a clean desktop and easy to navigate menus
[02:31] <ireverentReveren> [Flux]  you missed my point entirely. thingy said i had to download a whole second cd. is space on the cd that crowded that allowing options on the installer wont fit?
[02:31] <sanityx> luke_: I don't think operating systems have frames.
[02:31] <[Flux] > get the dvd?
[02:32] <ireverentReveren> [Flux]  try KDDE then, so much cleaner.
[02:32] <luke_> sanityx:  surely u have to render the desktop etc
[02:32] <sanityx> luke_: Yes, thats called a refresh rate, and its measured in hz. And it depends on the monitor.
[02:32] <CodeOfficer> anyone been able to get past the "Unable to Locate RSDP" erros that occur when installing ubuntu into parallels?
[02:32] <Tsuamia> Hey everyone, When I try to run Frost Wire it won't even open, anyone know what's wrong?
[02:32] <[Flux] > sure it may seem restricting, but sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop is easy
[02:32] <h2o> I installed fluxbox and it is kinda horrible, no offense
[02:32] <[Flux] > and only takes 20 minutes
[02:32] <sanityx> luke_: i.e. if you have a low refresh rate the screen tends to flicker
[02:32] <eck> ireverentReveren: there is definitely not a room to put the base system AND gnoem AND kde on one cd
[02:32] <luke_> sanityx: yeah, but I'm running Beryl and its going a bit slower now. I was just wondering if there was a way to measure the difference
[02:33] <sanityx> eck: And thus, the DVD was born.
[02:33] <sgtmattbaker> I have a JMicron so I can't boot LFS from IDE drives, but I also have  SATA optical drive but when I type linux.ata fro boot it says no image found
[02:33] <ireverentReveren> [Flux]  i am willing to do that, but then i have to remove all the gnome crap wasting space
[02:33] <Music_Shuffle> luke_: FPS is more GPU-based...measured more for the stuf like games that actually create more of them.
[02:33] <[Flux] > fluxbox was the desktop enviroment on the first distro of linux i ever tried
[02:33] <sanityx> luke_: You could measure CPU load i suppose
[02:33] <[Flux] > i kinda grew fond of it
[02:33] <ireverentReveren> eck use a net install option? not that hard.
[02:33] <sanityx> gtg
[02:33] <luke_> sanityx, Music_Shuffle: oh ok thx
[02:33] <eck> ireverentReveren: so use the net install?
[02:33] <StoneySS> can someone help me with a bit of vmware :)
[02:33] <h2o> [Flux]  , I guess the right clickiing is fun
[02:33] <ireverentReveren> eck i have seen a 80 meg debian install cd that had room to include options on the installer
[02:33] <eck> ireverentReveren: or debootstrap, or however you want to do it
[02:33] <Tsuamia> anyone know why limewire won't run?
[02:33] <Tsuamia> frost wire**
[02:34] <[Flux] > h2o: it was fun customizing it lol
[02:34] <[Flux] > could do some neat things with it
[02:34] <h2o> Tsunamia, I have no clue, I have the same problem
[02:34] <h2o> true
[02:34] <GrooveStix> hey guys
[02:34] <ireverentReveren> eck no to be rude but my entire point is "download a second cd" is a retarded solution
[02:34] <DanaG> yay, my .asoundrc works.
[02:34] <jstarcher> how do I get rid of the old iptable rules? Here is the list of rules I have http://pb.theoverclocked.com/41
[02:34] <BlackAnthrax> what are some really good games in linux?
[02:34] <bododo> hi folks
[02:34] <nrdb> ireverentReveren: bet it wasn't a LiveCD
[02:34] <palmerthegeek> hey groovestix and bododo
[02:34] <GrooveStix> is there some sort of tweak guide I can do!
[02:34] <Tsuamia> ktron is a cool game :P
[02:34] <GrooveStix> ?
[02:34] <GrooveStix> :)))
[02:34] <[Flux] > afk
[02:34] <h2o> when I run gksu update-manager -c via alt + F2, nothing shows up!!!
[02:34] <ryanakca> Why doesn't `notify-send 'Hello World!'` do anything?
[02:35] <ireverentReveren> nrdb my point is adding options to an installer does not take much space
[02:35] <eck> ireverentReveren: which is why you're recommended to apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, not downlaod a second cd and reinstall
[02:35] <nikin> sanityx: BlackAnthrax : i like Enemy Teritory and freeciv :)
[02:35] <nrdb> ireverentReveren: all the packages for that option does
[02:35] <thingy> ireverentReveren, What cd have you downloaded?
[02:35] <GrooveStix> tweaks as in speed
[02:35] <eck> ireverentReveren: you're purposely ignoring the options that you have been given, which is what makes it difficult
[02:35] <Cactii> I'm having a problem with a Wireless Network Adapter... I've had it working a few time but it mysteriously drops connection... can somebody please tell me where ALL the configuration information for networks is stored (besides /etc/network)
[02:35] <bododo> why does iwlist scan shows me a qualitu of 77% and my real quality is 46% at most? :(
[02:36] <ireverentReveren> eck i guess you are just jumping in, so i will repeat myself a forth time... i still have gnome installed. I dont want that. why waste space on gnome? why not do a minimal install and then add kde?
[02:36] <eck> ireverentReveren: again, you _can_ do a minimal install and then add kde
[02:36] <Lbawinowns> What program is recommended for virtual images?
[02:36] <ireverentReveren> eck i have NOT been given realistic options. download a second iso and download kde and then remove gnome are not very realistic options
[02:36] <ireverentReveren> eck how so?
[02:37] <ireverentReveren> eck last time i asked i was told to download a different iso
[02:37] <h2o> I HATE CAPS LOCK!
[02:37] <eck> ireverentReveren: you have already said that you are coming from debian, if you do a debootstrap install you'll get an ubuntu-minimal system and then you can build it up from there
[02:37] <bododo> how can i improve my wifi signal quality please?
[02:37] <DanaG> Now if only I could figure out why it's so crackly...
[02:37] <bododo> i'm at about 4 meter from the wifi borne abd the signal is 41%
[02:37] <zz> what is phpmyadmin default username and pass?
[02:37] <nrdb> ireverentReveren: I like the idea of a installing LiveCD, and if it was done that way you would need a fast internet connection to install and that would be a real bummer.
[02:37] <zz> is it same as mysql user/pass?

[02:40] <Cactii> bododo: it's specific for different wireless routers... but go to your wireless router configuration (maybe type <IP_ADDRESS>) in your browser and look for a place that allows you to change what channel you are broadcasting on.
[02:40] <m4j> i need help
[02:40] <DanaG> to update the package list and then install testdisk, you can use it from the livecd.

[02:42] <ireverentReveren> thingy thanks for your help on that. i guess people here just don't get my point. or bother to read what i am saying and are just jumping in repeating eachother like parrots. I appreceate the fact that you bother to ready the whole convo.
[02:42] <br1|> ok thanks, i'll give it a shot
[02:42] <glick> [df] Vincent, i think nero gives a trial version of their software, you can download it and install and burn a few isos,
[02:42] <MSTK> hi.  i want to start becoming familiar with the gnome terminal.  can anyone suggest a useful tutorial or guide?
[02:42] <LjL> m4j: i didn't see you ask a question yet.
[02:42] <[df] Vincent> Thanks Glick
[02:42] <thingy> ireverentReveren, are you going to attempt that boot param cmd? im interested to know if it works or not
[02:43] <br1|> does the ubuntu server have a built in ssh server?
[02:43] <ireverentReveren> thingy as you can see from this convo it seems that "download a second iso" is parrotted like some sort of mantra.
[02:43] <thingy> ireverentReveren, ill try it myself once ive setup virtuabox or vmware
[02:43] <m4j> i need help installing flash
[02:43] <LoneShadow_> !flash
[02:43] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[02:43] <glick> [df] Vincent, also check out http://www.winlibre.com/en/
[02:43] <Tsuamia> Me too, I couldn't get flash to work on root
[02:43] <eck> MSTK: i would recommend buying an introductory unix/linux book (one that focuses on the command line, not how to install gnome/kde)
[02:43] <ireverentReveren> thingy i will once i get vmware at work running, I removed gnome by hand already and dont want to bork it all up
[02:43] <demonspork> DanaG: I have a copy of windows on a partition on that drive that I really, really, really, really need to boot into, as it just stopped booting.  Would testdrive be able to maintain that partition while fixing the mbr that is saying there are two 1000GB partitions and a 2000GB partition.  The disk is only 250GB.
[02:43] <bryan_666> i need help figuring out how to install a file i downloaded, called PSPVC

[02:44] <LoneShadow_> you saw the m4j ?
[02:44] <LoneShadow_> that*
[02:44] <MSTK> eck - I'll check that out the next time I stop at a store.  can you suggest any online resources for terminal/command line work?
[02:44] <bryan_666> !chanserv

[02:44] <sebo> hey...is here anyone using feisty with beryl on an ati-card?
[02:44] <mEck0> Is it possible to use kde i.e. icon themes in gnome and vice versa?
[02:44] <kuma_> help! i have <ombie-vampire processes eating my linux partition X_x
[02:44] <kuma_> *zombie
[02:45] <eck> MSTK: i've seen linuxcommand.org recommended before, i didn't learn from it myself so i'm not sure how good it is
[02:45] <LoneShadow_> kuma_:  try "sudo aptitude clean"
[02:45] <MSTK> eck - thanks, I'll check it out.
[02:45] <bryan_666> anyone wanna help me try and install the PSPVC that I downloaded on source forge, or try to help me get the ffMPEG working
[02:45] <DanaG> Testdisk may be able to save the drive.
[02:45] <kuma_> LoneShadow_ ok
[02:45] <cork> hmmmm, does anyone else here play counterstrike:SOURCE under WINE? i cannot listen to music and have in-game sound at the same time.. fixable?
[02:46] <DanaG> It's saved me when the Windows XP CD decided 6 partitions were all just one,
[02:46] <eck> mEck0: i think it is if the kde icon set uses a tango-like naming system
[02:46] <DanaG> and then I mistakenly formatted that one (but didn't install to it, luckily.)
[02:46] <LoneShadow_> bryan_666:  there should be a readme file of some sort in the sources, most probably you might need to make and make install
[02:46] <MSTK> by the way, is it possible to browse simple text webpages or read text files under the command line?
[02:46] <mEck0> eck: ok, thx
[02:46] <DanaG> The UI takes a bit of getting used to, so don't do Write until you're sure it's right.
[02:46] <kuma_> LoneShadow_ WOW! it worked! thanks!
[02:46] <eck> MSTK: you can read a text file with "less something.txt", and you can view webpages from the commandline if you install links2
[02:47] <ZEROCOOL12389> IS ANYONE HERE USING A LAPTOP WITH HD AUDIO IF SO PLEASE PM ME
[02:47] <RedRum> i managed to format, but now i get an error returned while trying to install the kernel.. any ideas?

[02:47] <Music_Shuffle> !caps | ZEROCOOL12389
[02:47] <ubotu> ZEROCOOL12389: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.

[02:52] <bryan> eck: is the jabber server package i should install called "jabberd2"?
[02:52] <thingy> RedRum, umm ok then we can't rule out whether the cd has problems...Can you pm me the exact message you see on the screen
[02:52] <eck> bryan: yes, i believe so
[02:52] <MSTK> sorry for all of the questions.  But if I switch to the full-screen command line via CTRL+ALT+F2 (or something like that), how do I exit?  I keep on having to type "sudo shutdown -r now", but there must be a way to simply exit without rebooting.
[02:52] <RedRum> thingy: it also contains md5 hash irregularities.. but cant fathom why.. i downloaded the iso and burned it at 4x
[02:52] <LoneShadow_> Lbawinowns: I already followed a howto, and installed feisty livecd on my 1GB flash drive, I booted this PC using the flash drive :)

[02:53] <user-land> Hi, has the nVidia bug of the 7.04 update been fixed ?
[02:53] <Bruhaha> !grub
[02:53] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:53] <thingy> RedRum, Do you mean the ISO files MD5 doesn't match the value in the signature file?
[02:53] <trippen> mikere,  yes.. i am.. and its not working to well
[02:53] <MSTK> eck - thanks.  is there an online resource where I can possibly look all of these up?
[02:53] <eck> bododo: you can just reconfigure it with iwconfig
[02:53] <h2o> Im just going to have to wait 4 weeks for the cd to come so i can upgrade from that cause upgrading over internet is horrible with their servers
[02:53] <Lbawinowns> LoneShadow_: hehe ok, Im far too noob for that ;), just the word kernel scares me :(
[02:53] <trippen> mikere,  the ./config worked fine
[02:53] <eck> MSTK: unfortunately not, this is mostly random collected knowledge
[02:54] <bododo> eck i changed the channel but the quality remains the same :(
[02:54] <admiral_squint> user-land:  nvidia bug?
[02:54] <eck> MSTK: that's why a book is good
[02:54] <Sergo> hello, i could not install Ubuntu 7.04 , there was an error on starting LiveCD that an device is missing
[02:54] <LoneShadow_> Lbawinowns: it was a pretty easy howto I found online, I need to figure out some more things. But I like the idea of having fesity on my key chain :P
[02:54] <crazy_bus> I'm trying to install kubuntu/edubuntu 7.04. However the installer freezes at 15% when its detecting file systems. It does this on both kubuntu and edubuntu.  What can I do?
[02:54] <LoneShadow_> feisty*
[02:54] <user-land> admiral_squint, there was a problem for people updating to Ubuntu 7.04 ...
[02:54] <h2o> YES
[02:54] <h2o> exactly
[02:54] <h2o> user-land
[02:54] <admiral_squint> oh. mine worked ok oddly enough
[02:55] <h2o> I HAVE THE 'Problem"
[02:55] <user-land> h2o, you were trapped by it ?
[02:55] <user-land> oh
[02:55] <h2o> Yes
[02:55] <user-land> still ...
[02:55] <admiral_squint> what about envy?
[02:55] <user-land> sorry to hear that
[02:55] <m4j> loneshadow can you help me
[02:55] <mikere> trippen: I think there might be an error in the make script possibly.  Line 8 shows where the problem starts.  You might have to post a question for whomever wrote the make script - I'm not really good with make
[02:55] <Sergo> my SoundCard is un-plugged from PC and probaly ubuntu can't detect and to this cannot run LiveCd
[02:55] <Sergo> is this possible..
[02:55] <h2o> no body helps either

[02:55] <hugolp> torrenflus
[02:55] <h2o> i use torrentflux

[02:56] <dg10050> hey
[02:56] <BlAzOne> LoneShadow, sorry man i thought you said you were searching online, what happens is, I download this file from source forge, and then it promts me in firefox to either save it or open it with the archive manager...
[02:56] <trippen> mikere,  it says something about use -fPIC to recompile it.. do you know what that is ?
[02:56] <hugolp> h2o I have installed it today and I am happy with it, but one torrent wont get deleted
[02:56] <Music_Shuffle> !es | Pretoriano
[02:56] <ubotu> Pretoriano: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[02:56] <hugolp> I just order it to delete but it appears again
[02:56] <dg10050> what are the chances of ntfs-3g corrupting my HD?
[02:56] <m4j> LoneShadow_, where
[02:56] <m4j> at
[02:56] <trippen> anyone happen to have a .deb for a 64bit version of projectM .99
[02:56] <mikere> trippen: that's a command line switch probably for gcc or g++ (c compiler or c++ compiler)
[02:56] <user-land> h2o, the same happened with the update to 6.10. information policy has obviously not been improved. no official warnings and weeks before a resolution ...
[02:56] <Sergo> Question: Can i install Ubuntu if SoundCard device is missing ?
[02:56] <hugolp> Do you know where I can find the configuration file to change it?
[02:56] <h2o> hugolp, that has never happened to me. maybe the folder has been chmoded or something
[02:57] <hugolp> h2o no
[02:57] <LoneShadow_> BlAzOne: Its a source package, just download it, and extra it under /usr/src
[02:57] <admiral_squint> trippen, the only way i could ever get it to work was by compiling it myself
[02:57] <trippen> mikere,  is that what make uses ?
[02:57] <hugolp> I think is has to do with the name
[02:57] <h2o> im not sure hugolp?
[02:57] <hugolp> is got two dots
[02:57] <BlAzOne> ok ill try that loneshadow

[02:58] <LoneShadow_> BlAzOne: search online for compiling sources, if you get stuck

[03:01] <Enverex> I have an Atheros PCMCIA card in my laptop and Network manager sees it, but when I tell it to connect to the wireless network it just seems to try indefinately. If I check iwconfig then it shows the name of the AP but the frequency still seems to be scanning and it doesn't really connect. Any ideas?

[03:03] <Sergo> Music_Shuffle: i have here ubuntu 7.04 CD just burned
[03:03] <Sergo> :)
[03:04] <LoneShadow> was wondering why I had _ in my nick :D
[03:04] <Sergo> Music_Shuffle: yes
[03:04] <Music_Shuffle> Sergo: well, is that the Alternate Install CD? Otherwise, you're gonna have to DL that >.>
[03:04] <MSTK> when I enter GDK with CTRL+ALT+1 through 6, is there any way to exit without rebooting the system?  I have tried ALT+F7, but that just leads me to a blank screen for some reason.
[03:05] <DanaG> Why is ladspa being so crackly?
[03:05] <ExpositionOfEvil> has anyone compiled gtkradiant?
[03:05] <Sergo> Music_Shuffle it's Ubuntu 7.04, is there an why to skip LiveCD and to install Ubuntu ?
[03:05] <vox754> !nickspam > LoneShadow
[03:05] <demonspork> DanaG how do I run testdrive?
[03:05] <DanaG> testdisk?
[03:05] <DanaG> sudo testdisk /dev/sda
[03:05] <DanaG> or whatever drive.
[03:05] <LoneShadow> vox754:  sorry :D
[03:05] <demonspork> ah
[03:05] <ireverentReveren> BWAHAHAHAHA ZOMG YOU DONT WANT GMOME! UBUTUNT STRATEGY TO THE RESCUE!!! download a second, 700 meg iso to do something simple!
[03:05] <ExpositionOfEvil> has anyone compiled gtkradiant?
[03:06] <demonspork> I remembered the name incorrectly
[03:06] <bradd> Hwllo?
[03:06] <ExpositionOfEvil> hwllo
[03:06] <Music_Shuffle> Sergo: Off the LiveCD, you usually just install through GNOME, if you'd like to solely install text-based, download the alternate install CD and install off of there >.>
[03:06] <bruenig> ireverentReveren, sudo apt-get install kde-core
[03:06] <bradd> lolz, sry
[03:06] <Music_Shuffle> bradd: hwllo to you too :P
[03:06] <Puppy_> Can anyone help me with NTSF-3g?
[03:06] <ExpositionOfEvil> rofl
[03:06] <Sergo> ok,thanks
[03:06] <bradd> >:o!
[03:06] <bruenig> !info kde-core
[03:06] <ubotu> kde-core: the K Desktop Environment core modules. In component main, is optional. Version 5:47 (feisty), package size 7 kB, installed size 40 kB
[03:06] <Sergo> undererstand
[03:06] <ExpositionOfEvil> has anyone compiled gtkradiant?
[03:07] <Music_Shuffle> GL :)
[03:07] <max_harmony> Sorry HaSH, but I bought it a fish market
[03:07] <ireverentReveren> Sergo i know, it doesnt make much sense, but that is evidently the udbuntu way
[03:07] <max_harmony> You threw a dead fish in the pond
[03:07] <Lbawinowns> Someone must be able to help me getting my ubuntu to read iso as a cd.
[03:07] <DanaG> Also, for testdisk, do save before you start, then let it scan the drive.
[03:07] <bradd> I'm a nub that need HELP. How do you run an app in terminal?
[03:07] <bruenig> ireverentReveren, what are you talking about?
[03:07] <DanaG> To check if a partition is correct, use 'p' to do a directory listing.
[03:07] <bradd> needs*
[03:07] <Sergo> Music_Shuffle: the previous version of ubuntu i have installed with success, but ver. 7.04 i can't install becouse on my pc an device is missing and ubuntu can't detect it and don't want to skip it on start-up gnome...
[03:07] <Music_Shuffle> It makes sense if, knowing that you wanted a text install, you grabbed the Alternate disk to begin with :P
[03:08] <Sergo> do you know how to resolve this..?
[03:08] <DanaG> *crackle* *crackle*
[03:08] <Sergo> by the way kubuntu was installed with success yesterday on this pc..
[03:08] <bradd> TO run something in terminal do you just enter "run"?
[03:08] <ExpositionOfEvil> has anyone compiled gtkradiant?
[03:08] <stale_box> how do i close any software management tools? i cant install virtualbox without first closing any other software management tools first
[03:08] <Music_Shuffle> Sergo: Absolutely not, but there are loads of other people in here with more knowledge than me :P
[03:08] <Music_Shuffle> bradd: Or just type in the program name?
[03:09] <Puppy_> NTFS-3g help? Please... ?
[03:09] <Lbawinowns> bradd, tried to just type the filename in terminal?
[03:09] <Sergo> ok thanks
[03:09] <ExpositionOfEvil> bradd drag the program into the console
[03:09] <Lbawinowns> Yes, that's even better.
[03:09] <bradd> Well, I was using xterm in xubuntu
[03:09] <Enverex> Puppy_, You need to ask a question
[03:10] <ExpositionOfEvil> has anyone compiled gtkradiant? If so how?
[03:10] <Lbawinowns> !NTFS Puppy_
[03:10] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfs puppy_ - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:10] <vox754> !repeat > ExpositionOfEvil
[03:10] <Lbawinowns> lol
[03:10] <bradd> trying to get an app to run, but just wouldn't... it had the lock icon on it and I entered sudo and... yeah, didn't know that to after that
[03:10] <Pelo> ExpositionOfEvil,  have you ever compiled anything before ?
[03:10] <ExpositionOfEvil> vox754 ??
[03:10] <ExpositionOfEvil> pelo yes I have
[03:11] <ExpositionOfEvil> pelo this one turns out soo many errors it fails
[03:11] <Pelo> ExpositionOfEvil,  ok just checking, if it was a noob question or something more substancial
[03:11] <DanaG> *crackle*
[03:11] <Puppy_> Enverex: I had a working drive set up with NTFS-3g and it stopped mounting. I just need someone to walk me through the steps of setting it up again.
[03:11] <imbecile> hey guys,what is the difference between wine and vmware?
[03:11] <DanaG> it's crackling at the crossover point.
[03:11] <foxj> Anyone else getting this error when upping to Feisty Fawn? Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/source/Sources.gz Sub-process gzip returned an error code (1)
[03:11] <DanaG> Perhaps I need some overlap.
[03:12] <Lbawinowns> bradd, just tested doubleclick the app as if this was loose-dos?
[03:12] <Pelo> imbecile,  vmware creates a virtual machine inwichyou intall another os,  wine just provides the needed to run a window application on linux
[03:12] <Enverex> Puppy_, erm, just "ntfs3g /dev/whatever /where/you/want/it" is the way to do it
[03:12] <blind> is there a special driver or anything i need to use a playstation to usb adapter?
[03:13] <Puppy_> Enverex: /etc/fstab? Or the terminal?
[03:13] <foug> can dvd burners burn regular cd's as well?
[03:13] <Enverex> Puppy_, term
[03:13] <Pelo> foug,  usualy
[03:13] <tonyyarusso> generally they come as both foug
[03:13] <dmb> does anyone who works with the shipit program on irc right now?
[03:13] <bit0> hi
[03:13] <trippen> Linking shared lib against static non-PIC lib ... do anyone know what this means
[03:14] <vox754> foug, is that a serious question?
[03:14] <foug> Pelo: tonyyarusso: thanks
[03:14] <tonyyarusso> dmb: not likely.  What do you need?
[03:14] <Puppy_> Enverex: Thank's, I'll give it a try!
[03:14] <foug> vox754: i've never messed with a dvd burner before, my computer is very old
[03:14] <dmb> tonyyarusso: well, im wondering if its to late to change the address for the shipit cds that i ordered
[03:14] <ryanakca> Why doesn't `notify-send 'Hello World!'` do anything? notify-send is provided by the package libnotify-bin ... Kubuntu Feisty
[03:14] <stale_box> how do i close any software management tools? i cant install virtualbox without first closing any other software management tools first
[03:14] <BlackAnthrax> what is some good games to check out? i like fps and rts
[03:14] <BlAzOne> loneshadow i think i figured it out thx man
[03:14] <thingy> foug, yes dvd burners can burn and read cds as well
[03:14] <houman123> hi there, i had a FreeNX related question, how come everyone is using the repositoris from saveas instead of directly downloading the server from nomachine.com?
[03:14] <LoneShadow> BlAzOne: cool
[03:14] <Enverex> BlackAnthrax, Quake 4 and Unreal Tournament 2004
[03:15] <BlackAnthrax> foug: get you a lightscribe dual layer for about 60 buck
[03:15] <tonyyarusso> dmb: Give it a shot and find out.  Not the end of the world if some random person gets CDs either, eh?
[03:15] <BlackAnthrax> Enverex: are they free? i dont think they are are they?
[03:15] <thingy> BlackAnthrax, http://www.happypenguin.org/
[03:15] <dmb> tonyyarusso: true
[03:15] <Enverex> BlackAnthrax, You didn't say free
[03:15] <DARKGuy> BlackAnthrax: there's some COOL free fps/rts mix game: Savage
[03:15] <simman> Is it possible to dualboot with two different OSes on two different hard drives? Windows XP is on one and Ubuntu will be on the other if this is possible.
[03:15] <BlackAnthrax> Enverex: hehehe, do they work well under linux?
[03:15] <Enverex> BlackAnthrax, Perfectly
[03:15] <Enverex> simman, yes
[03:15] <DARKGuy> simman: yes
[03:15] <BlackAnthrax> Enverex: where can i get quake 4?
[03:15] <houman123> simman: of course it is, and in fact this is the preferrable set up
[03:15] <DARKGuy> lol
[03:15] <BlackAnthrax> Enverex: online?
[03:16] <Enverex> BlackAnthrax, Any good games shops
[03:16] <Lbawinowns> Someone PLEASE help me! the message ubotu gives about mounting isos is not correct! my terminal says I must say filesystem, I'm clueless
[03:16] <simman> Ok. Thank you.
[03:16] <BlackAnthrax> Evan_: is there a linux version, or an installer for it?
[03:16] <BlAzOne> there was like an install.sv file that i clicked on and it asked me to run it in the terminal so i did loneshadow
[03:16] <Enverex> Lbawinowns, mount -o loop /your/file.iso /where/you/wantit/
[03:16] <DARKGuy> Lbawinowns: try "-t iso8859-1" as aditional parameter in the mount command
[03:16] <Puppy_> Enverex: Sorry to bug  you, but here's what I got: " ntfs3g: command not found" But I have it installed.
[03:16] <damageDOne> I need help please. I've just set up XP/Edubuntu dual boot. I got into ubuntu fine. I then restarted to make sure XP was going okay and it asked me to do a disk check. I let it do its thing and then, once I saw everything looked okay, restarted to go back into ubuntu. Now, I get the graphical boot up but then instead of the graphical login screen I get a text login prompt and password prompt. Once I've entered the details that's it I'm left at
[03:16] <LoneShadow> BlAzOne:  ah nice source package :)
[03:16] <Enverex> Puppy_, erm, try ntfs-3g
[03:17] <simman> Wait, should I use a disk with the Ubuntu .iso burned onto it for this?
[03:17] <Music_Shuffle> damageDOne: startx?
[03:17] <Puppy_> Enverex: That got me something I've never seen before. Going to paste bin now.
[03:18] <houman123> for FreeNX how come everyone is using the repositoris from saveas instead of directly downloading the server from nomachine.com?
[03:18] <Lbawinowns> enverex, it wants filesystem.        Darkguy,  unknown filesystem  "iso8859-1"
[03:18] <simman> Wait, should I use a disk with the Ubuntu .iso burned onto it for this? The dualboot with two hard drives.
[03:18] <Enverex> Lbawinowns, If it wants filesystem then it's not an iso
[03:18] <BlAzOne> now loneshadow i did it and then the terminal closes itself and I dont know where the acual program is
[03:18] <Enverex> DARKGuy, It's -t iso9660
[03:18] <damageDOne> Music_Shuffle: will it do this everytime I boot up?
[03:18] <DARKGuy> Enverex: ah, my bad x_x
[03:19] <Lbawinowns> Oh sorry enverex :(,  It's a bin, can i mount anyway?
[03:19] <Enverex> Lbawinowns, No
[03:19] <Lbawinowns> really?
[03:19] <Puppy_> Enverex: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/18180/
[03:19] <Music_Shuffle> damageDOne: I have no idea, but if you need to, just enter the command 'startx' to load X, and maybe someone with more knowledge can help you make sure it doesn't happen again >.>
[03:19] <jose> espaol    please
[03:19] <Enverex> Lbawinowns, You need to convert it to iso using bchunk
[03:20] <DARKGuy> !es | jose
[03:20] <ubotu> jose: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[03:20] <simman> Should I use a disk with the Ubuntu .iso burned onto it for this? The dualboot with two hard drives.
[03:20] <Lbawinowns> Thanks then :) enverex
[03:20] <thingy> !klingon | thingy
[03:20] <thingy> darn
[03:20] <DARKGuy> xD
[03:20] <LoneShadow> BlAzOne: since it was not a package, it wont create any links on top, you will either have to create a link yourself, or run the program name from an xterm
[03:20] <Enverex> Puppy_, Ok, it's dirty so you can't write to it. Use -o rw
[03:21] <Enverex> at the end
[03:21] <LoneShadow> BlAzOne:  try typing the program name in an xterm window and see if that works
[03:21] <vox754> simman, yes... I don't really know what you mean, rephrase the question.
[03:21] <jessid> !kernel
[03:21] <Puppy_> Enverex: What could have happened?
[03:21] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[03:21] <LoneShadow> gotta go, later
[03:21] <BlAzOne> just type iot in or type some command loneshadow?
[03:22] <Puppy_> Enverex: Same error. :-(
[03:22] <antmangaka> hello :)
[03:22] <simman> I mean that I have Windows XP on one hard drive and am going to install Ubuntu on the second drive. I'm asking if I should use a disk with the Ubuntu .iso file burned onto it
[03:23] <vox754> simman, well yes... how else would you install it?
[03:23] <antmangaka> hey guys i am using ubuntu 7.04 and i installed ati drivers, how can I change the gamma?
[03:23] <simman> Not sure, new to dual booting :p
[03:23] <wastrel> what's gamma?
[03:23] <Enverex> Puppy_, check the apps help to see how you set the read-only switch
[03:23] <paroxysm> could you not mount the iso from the livecd?
[03:23] <antmangaka> like brightness
[03:23] <DARKGuy> !gamma
[03:23] <simman> I can't remember when my dad installed XP, either... was a few years ago.
[03:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about gamma - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:23] <DARKGuy> duh :(
[03:23] <antmangaka> of the colors
[03:23] <linxeh> antmangaka: in the ati control ?
[03:23] <paroxysm> wait, nevermind, you need the cd to get the livecd, lol.
[03:24] <Puppy_> Enverex: how do I do that?
[03:24] <linxeh> antmangaka: see the "adjustment" tab
[03:24] <Enverex> Puppy_, --help
[03:24] <cables> Why doesn't Ubuntu run apt-get autoremove every week or something?
[03:24] <luke_> how do you make fonts look good on ubuntu?
[03:25] <paroxysm> luke_: System > Preferences > Font should do it
[03:25] <luke_> paroxysm: thanks
[03:26] <Puppy_> Enverex: Where? With a command? Sorry.
[03:26] <simman> Thanks. If I have any more questions, I'll be sure to come back.
[03:26] <vox754> simman, it should go okay, the only problem you may encounter is that of grub, if you install it on the secondary drive, it may not boot and the installation may go straight to Windows. If you install grub on the first disk it may be able to boot both Ubuntu and Windows.
[03:26] <ExpositionOfEvil> has anyone installed backtrack 2?
[03:26] <Enverex> Puppy_, sorry, i cant see the screen anymore and I should have gone to bed long ago...
[03:26] <antmangaka> hehe, well i am new to ubuntu :p where is this adjustement tab , caus ei dont se it at right click
[03:26] <Enverex> Puppy_, ntfs-3g --help
[03:27] <Puppy_> Enverex: Ok, thanks for your help!
[03:27] <antmangaka> also i just enable teh restricted driver for ati that ubuntu has
[03:27] <TECH_1> Is this worth it?....    http://tvease.net/wiki/index.php?title=Tweak_ubuntu_for_speed
[03:28] <\x6e\x65\x72\x64> I can no longer burn DVDs with certain characters like . and [, that I lose windows compatibility, and it burns in the 8.3 format. Is there a way to automatically fix those files so they're suitable for burning in long mode?
[03:29] <samonstar> hello
[03:29] <antmangaka> hi :)
[03:29] <Pretoriano> some know a software simple like kdetv but with the record option?
[03:29] <samonstar> Would anyone be interested in helping me with installing ubuntu?
[03:29] <samonstar> i'm in the middle of it and am having a bit of trouble.
[03:29] <max_harmony> sorry I'm hijacking this channel to announce this, but I'm working on a new language called Kligu. It's in launchpad now
[03:30] <Ademan> is there a man page or something that will tell me how to interpret ls -l   ?   (specifically the number after the permissions)
[03:30] <Enverex> max_harmony, You sound like a Trecky...
[03:30] <foxj> heh he does

[03:59] <samonstar> gparted is saying that I need a partition for a swap space.
[03:59] <thompa> red22: compiz wont work here (desktop effects) but beryl seems to work great
[03:59] <zz> my wireless hwp54g hawking pci card does not connect to my AP. it uses rt2500 modules and the ones with the kernel are bugged. i dl the driver but that will not compile on feisty so i need to dl the nightly tarbal. the most disterbing this is that it worked in edgy out of the box
[03:59] <shane634> mmdski, depends on the chipset in the card
[03:59] <samonstar> i have the free space though. what does the swap space need to be formatted as?
[03:59] <red22> thompa: can you log into a non-beryl session?  if so, i don't think you have connectivity problems..
[03:59] <samonstar> ext3?
[03:59] <variant> samonstar: swap
[03:59] <zz> swap
[03:59] <variant> samonstar: mkswap /dev/whatever
[03:59] <thompa> red22: my internet problem has become worse everyday, i lose connction every few minutes
[03:59] <zz> swa/solarious
[03:59] <samonstar> omg. yes. I see that now.
[03:59] <gravemind> PMantis: wastrel: ok, how to I make it come into effect?
[03:59] <red22> thompa: or at least you could check to see if it's only me or it's a general issue
[03:59] <variant> samonstar: then swapon /dev/whatever
[04:00] <samonstar> thanks for assisting me. :)
[04:00] <thompa> red22: ill test it
[04:00] <zeroday> why do we keep getting hit by bot attacks?
[04:00] <rlinux> Anyone knows how to repair the resolution problem that I am getting during the installation? And I cant seem to find the solution from forums. Someone pls try help.
[04:00] <zeroday> rlinux: what gfx card?
[04:00] <red22> thompa: cool i'll be back in about 15 mins to see how it goes ok? gotta go grab a bite.
[04:00] <thompa> red22: no it was before i had beryl also i remebr
[04:00] <variant> zeroday: dunno, i didn't even notice as i'm ignoring "crap" with irssi :)
[04:00] <anon480387> hello?
[04:00] <PMantis> gravemind, /etc/init.d/network restart ... but you may loose your connections.. and you DID backup that file, right?

[04:00] <TTT_Travis> oops
[04:00] <zz> zeroday: when we learn what causes time we will find that out
[04:00] <jessid> has some of you used the keyspan usb serial adaptor that could help me? i have already loaded the driver into the kernel, but I cant still use the /dev/ttyS0 some help!!! thanks

[04:01] <py_geek> sorry all
[04:01] <red22> thompa: well i'm out of ideas  :(  ok cool ty for trying it. hope we can zero in on cause. brb
[04:01] <gravemind> PMantis: yeah I made a .backup copy, but I only hashed out the ones I didn't need anyway.
[04:01] <variant> zeroday: but it's because there is always a couple of nonces that think doing some noobie bot attack like that gets them some sort of respect (from other noobs perhaps)
[04:01] <zeroday> okay okay i got it stupid question
[04:01] <zeroday> yeah i guessed
[04:01] <zeroday> lol
[04:02] <gravemind> PMantis: there was a wifi0 interface I don't know how it got there, but the only two I kept unhashed were lo and ath0
[04:02] <anon480387> So I added a few lines to my xorg.conf file, which made xorg not load. I sudo nano'd the .conf file and removed those lines, but when I restarted, the Xorg still crashed. Can anyone help?

[04:03] <rlinux> zeroday, any ideas?

[04:03] <samonstar> Is there any way to have GRUB be in it's own spot where It won't be affected If I choose to uninstall ubuntu on this laptop?
[04:03] <variant> GrooveStix: add a stop / start whatever to the end there
[04:03] <eck> ryanakca: i am actually working on getting it working for myself right now (the irssi + notification thing looks awesome), i'll let you know if i get it working

[04:05] <samonstar> Last time I uninstalled an ubuntu installation, upon reboot, I would have error 15 or 22 on GRUB and need to fix it using WINXP cd's. Is there any way that if ubuntu is uninstalled grub will continue to function loading winxp?

[04:05] <PMantis> Anyone know what do do with Edgy if the Wiki instruction for upgrading to 7.04 can't find the new version??
[04:05] <damageDOne> Just thought I'd share this with you all. If you're having a bad day then have a good laugh at me. I've been searching around the net including here trying to find out why sound is not working in my new ubuntu installation. I've checked the ubotu recommended pages, searched google, etc. etc. Then I logged into windows and the sound wasn't working there either and I was thinking Uh oh what's going on. And then I noticed (you might have guessed
[04:05] <zz> my wireless hwp54g hawking pci card does not connect to my AP. it uses rt2500 modules and the ones with the kernel are bugged. i dl the driver but that will not compile on feisty so i need to dl the nightly tarbal. the most disterbing this is that it worked in edgy out of the box. if i pop in a xubuntu desktop cd and dl the svn nightly it works w/o a problem
[04:05] <ryanakca> :-)
[04:05] <variant> samonstar: it depends how you uninstall ubuntu
[04:06] <variant> samonstar: bear in min dthat grubs configuration files are stored in the /boot directory which is under ubuntus root (/) by default
[04:06] <variant> samonstar: so if you put /boot/ on it's own partition then you can remove ubuntu without affecting grub in any way
[04:07] <zz> *hugs
[04:07] <samonstar> hm. okay. THANKS FOR THE INFO. I will look around to see what /boot contains.
[04:07] <PMantis> Anyone know what do do with Edgy if the Wiki instructions for upgrading to 7.04 can't find the new version?? Neither "Update Manager", nor "do-release-upgrade" can see that there's a newer version.
[04:07] <vox754> samonstar, how would you "uninstall" Ubuntu? I'm curious.
[04:07] <variant> samonstar: /boot contains the kernel image, the grub config file and a bunch of other misc files
[04:07] <nrdb> I would like to take a DVD and cut out some sections and then recreate a new DVD what program do you suggest ?
[04:07] <PMantis> Sorry, didn't mean to hit enter again so early. :(
[04:07] <variant> vox754: by formatting the / partition presumably
[04:08] <Ta3v> HIya
[04:08] <vox754> samonstar, you could create a /boot 100 MB ext2 partition also
[04:08] <zeroday> nrdb: acidrip or dvdrip
[04:08] <samonstar> lol....well, I'm unfamiliar with how it is done. So I deleted the previous ubuntu partitions under WINXP admin tools.
[04:08] <zz> my wireless hwp54g hawking pci card does not connect to my AP. it uses rt2500 modules and the ones with the kernel are bugged. i dl the driver but that will not compile on feisty so i need to dl the nightly tarbal. the most disterbing this is that it worked in edgy out of the box. if i pop in a xubuntu desktop cd and dl the svn nightly it works w/o a problem
[04:08] <Bromics> Can Ubuntu run on a virtual PC ontop of Windows XP?
[04:08] <variant> samonstar: thats why grub stopped working, you removed the grub config file by deleeting the partition
[04:08] <zeroday> Bromics: of course
[04:08] <variant> Bromics: yes
[04:08] <Bromics> ok thnx
[04:08] <Ta3v> yes Bromics
[04:08] <vox754> variant, samonstar  so you do agree that Operating systems are not uninstalled but they are simply overwritten
[04:09] <Ta3v> I am doing so now.
[04:09] <Ta3v> Runs just fine.
[04:09] <zz> vox754: u can get rid of that partition so ur not over writing
[04:09] <Bromics> Ta3v, i somehow face some problems even getting through the installation part.
[04:09] <samonstar> sure. excuse whatever terms I am/was using incorrectly. :)
[04:09] <nrdb> zeroday: I have installed dvdrip but it doesn't appear to be able to put the clips back into dvd format only SVCD etc.
[04:10] <majickmann> Anybody know where the log file for the start up scripts are?
[04:10] <variant> samonstar: i don't think it matters a whole lot
[04:10] <zeroday> nrdb: you might wanna try acidrip then but i prefer dvdrip gimme a min
[04:10] <ryanakca> cafuego: odd
[04:10] <dibblego> I have just setup the Z55 CUPS driver according to some instructions, but the last part says "Now simply set up your printer using the new z55 driver. (ie: in GNOME: System->Administration->Printing)" -- how do I get the driver to even show up? It's not listed under Lexmark as a Model (but there is Z everything else)
[04:10] <majickmann> I've checked /var/log, but didn't find the error...
[04:10] <GrooveStix> paulell:Yes, I finally installed Samba
[04:10] <kevin__> hello
[04:10] <zz> who put the rt2500 modules in the kernel so i can complain that they but in a bugged module driver?
[04:11] <GrooveStix> paulell: I'll register later
[04:11] <GrooveStix> paulell: I have a Afro-Beat show to go to!
[04:11] <shane634> zz, you have the restricted modules installed?
[04:11] <zeroday> nrdb: i dunno sorry my dvdrip iis being a pain
[04:11] <zz> shane634: no
[04:11] <pinp> I want to use one of the buttons on my trackball as the "drag lock" button (xev button 8). The "DragLockButtons" Option in xorg.conf doesn't seem to work with the evdev driver. Is there a way in gnome to make the button do what I want?
[04:12] <shane634> zz, do so for your version uname -r
[04:12] <nrdb> zeroday: ok I will try acidrip
[04:12] <zz> that still doesnt fix anything
[04:12] <zeroday> nrdb: great
[04:12] <shane634> zz, if not installed how do you know?
[04:12] <Ta3v> hey anyone know what the big deal is about Beryl?
[04:12] <zz> shane634: let me reinstall ubuntu cause i screwed up this kerenel
[04:12] <bryan_> which IRC server should i use in feisty? dancer-ircd, iacd, ngircd or rageircd?
[04:12] <zz> shane634: cause i tried almost everything
[04:12] <Bromics> I am trying to install Ubunto 7.04 desktop with a virtual pc ontop of my windows xp. However i keep on facing some kind of resolution problem. Do I fix the resolution through VGA on the installation options? If yes, what resolution must it be?
[04:13] <samonstar> 200MB is suggested on a another website as a fine size for a separate /boot partition.
[04:13] <anon48087> ok so I have my GUI back
[04:13] <eck> ryanakca: i followed exactly the instructions on nixternal's site and it works here :-)
[04:13] <shane634> zz, ok i see the rt2500 is popular though and used often on here
[04:13] <anon48087> But 3D acceleration stopped working
[04:13] <damageDOne> Why would an ipod get detected in LiveCD more but then not work once the installation is complete?

[04:14] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[04:14] <thom_> hey how do i change nick
[04:14] <samonstar> what is an average size of the linux kernels?
[04:14] <shane634> rr72, no i didn't make that claim only that others on the  forums have it working
[04:14] <rr72> shane634~ but it was workjing 100% out of the box on edgy
[04:14] <zeroday> thom_: what irc client are you usong?

[04:15] <thom_> thanks
[04:15] <zeroday> damageDOne: you need to install the codecs
[04:15] <shane634> rr72, feisty is not a LTS release and may break things.. especially early on
[04:15] <zeroday> !codecs > damageDOne (see pm rom ubotu)
[04:15] <damageDOne> zeroday: with automatix2?
[04:15] <rr72> shane634~ but you just said people got it working
[04:15] <kevin__> np
[04:15] <bryan_> zeroday: chatzilla, konversation, gaim
[04:15] <vox754> samonstar, the ones on /boot are like 16 MB each, so with 100 MB you may hold like 6 kernels, enough more most
[04:15] <anon48087> http://pastebin.ca/463696
[04:15] <thom_> already in use, guess i gotta wait a little
[04:16] <PMantis> kevin__, Try: http://localhost
[04:16] <shane634> rr72, and that is true enough.. how well it works is not my concern..
[04:16] <zeroday> damageDOne: are you using fiesty?

[04:16] <ubotu> damageDOne: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:16] <zeroday> !multimedia | damageDOne
[04:16] <ubotu> damageDOne: Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically.

[04:17] <zeroday> bryan_: sorry i think i got the wrong person
[04:17] <thom_> wirless is working but not wired. weird
[04:17] <damageDOne> zeroday: I am installing codecs with Automatix2 right now.
[04:17] <ryanakca> eck: odd
[04:17] <yharrow> how long does it take to compile inkscape?
[04:17] <zeroday> !automatix | damageDOne
[04:17] <ubotu> damageDOne: Automatix2 is a proprietary script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[04:17] <ryanakca> eck: I wonder if I installed ubuntu-desktop, if it would work in gnome
[04:18] <rr72> shane634~ and why can i get it to work on a feisty xubuntu live cd but not on kubuntu or ubuntu?
[04:18] <eck> ryanakca: you said that "notify-send title body" didn't work?
[04:18] <samonstar> OK THANKS. Barring any further troubles this should go along fine. Im out.
[04:18] <damageDOne> zeroday: I just find it strange that it would work with the LiveCD and not the full install
[04:18] <ryanakca> eck: nope
[04:18] <ryanakca> nothing happens
[04:18] <shane634> rr72, not sure look here http://ubuntuforums.org/search.php?searchid=19076880

[04:19] <zeroday> anon48087: what is still wrong again sorry?
[04:19] <anon48087> 3d acceleration doesn't work
[04:19] <PMantis> Update Manager can't find Feisty for some reason... but my proxy logs show an access to: http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release ... and I can read the URL with lynx just fine... Ideas??
[04:19] <zeroday> anon48087: have yuo installed the drivers?
[04:19] <patrick_> anyone here know why quicktime and divx streams are not playing even though I have all the restricted formats installed and as far as I know functional?? I think it may have something to do with the 32 bit firefox I installed on this 64 bit laptop... I followed the community docs to the letter but still cant get the media to play
[04:19] <anon48087> probably not...how do I go about doing that?
[04:19] <thompa> kevin__: ok that worked that time, thanks
[04:20] <kevin__> thompa, glad i could help
[04:20] <jessid> some of you know what is correct port to use when I use a keyspan serial adapter? i try /dev/ttys0, etc, but nothing...
[04:20] <eck> ryanakca: this is excellent, previously i had it set to sound the system bell on highlights :-)
[04:20] <MarcN> I'm downloading a video via mms:// using the mimms tool, but the resulting video has no sound.  It displays okay.  Anyone (not) hear of that before?
[04:21] <zeroday> anon48087: 3 ways a) install via restricted drivers manager b)install fglrx driver c) use envy script i recommend a) but it dosnt always work then you should try the envy script
[04:21] <thompa> I cant get wired connection of the router but get its wireless, just happened after madwifi update
[04:21] <shane634> anon48087, can you pastebin xorg.conf?
[04:21] <dinoerata> got a very simple question, i cannot see boot messages when booting up in ubuntu , how do i see them ????
[04:21] <thompa> i went back to the older version its for intel macbook
[04:21] <vox754> patrick_, well, you already know 64 bit is tricky... use the 32 bit distro instead
[04:21] <thompa> now that dont work either
[04:21] <vbabiy> hey guys i have a wpc54gs wireless nic card and it comes up on my network manager but no networks come up
[04:21] <patrick_> vox754, why?

[04:22] <MarcN> the video is from here: http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/btw/watch.html -- click on watch and then look at the html source to find the mms:// link.  Then use mimms that-url
[04:22] <dinoerata> will do
[04:22] <zeroday> dinoerata: np
[04:22] <patrick_> vox754, I mean it works fine on other 64 bit installs that I have seen
[04:22] <patrick_> and done
[04:22] <rr72> why was fawn released if so many poeple are having wirelss problems?
[04:22] <thompa> still intel macbook on ubuntu better than osx
[04:22] <zeroday> rr72: it was worse before
[04:22] <vbabiy> hey pipegeek you around?
[04:22] <thompa> battery life sucks though
[04:22] <shane634> rr72, it is a devel release.. if you want solid use dapper
[04:22] <vox754> patrick_, mmm... it is really unpredictably, so good luck
[04:22] <ryanakca> eck: cool
[04:23] <thingy> jessid, if its a usb to serial adapter, the com port it pops up on can be different...unplug the device, type in tail -f /var/log/message in a term and then plug in the device does the new messages in the term inform you of what the new device name was?
[04:23] <rr72> shane634~ last time i checked fawn isnt beta
[04:23] <patrick_> rr72, there will always be a problem, just takes time to solve a rock solid bug free os does not exist
[04:23] <anon48087> zeroday: The Envy script says it is for Nvidia, though...
[04:23] <ctroncoa> Hey guys, I'm having some trouble trying to compile the ALSA drivers. Can anyone help me?
[04:23] <shane634> rr72, yes i know not LTS either though
[04:23] <jessid> thingy give me a second
[04:23] <zeroday> anon48087: is for both did a) work?
[04:23] <vbabiy> Hey guys can anyone help me with this wireless problem?
[04:23] <rr72> patrick_~ all im complaining about is that i lost wireless support upgrading
[04:23] <anon48087> zeroday: a) did not work
[04:23] <rr72> vbabiy welcome to the club
[04:24] <patrick_> rr72, your using an atheros chipset
[04:24] <thompa> anyone running intel macbook here?
[04:24] <zeroday> anon48087: are you at envy website?
[04:24] <thingy> patrick_, are you trying to view dvix/mov files in a plugin in firefox or using some other app to view them?
[04:24] <shane634> upgrading breaks things.. they can't test every known combo before release folks
[04:24] <anon48087> zeroday: it said there was nothing that needed the drivers
[04:24] <rr72> patrick_~ no im not
[04:24] <anon48087> zeroday: yes I am
[04:24] <kkd> does anyone know how to install this   "CUPlayer.XPI"
[04:24] <rr72> patrick_~ im usuing RaLink
[04:24] <anon48087> zeroday: I downloaded the .deb for the script
[04:24] <zeroday> anon48087: install it than run it
[04:24] <patrick_> thingy, in firefox although I would love to use another app to view them
[04:24] <thingy> patrick_, what plugin ?
[04:24] <rr72> do u need to seperetly register for the forums even tho im on launchpad and the wiki?
[04:25] <demonspork> I tried to use Windows XP to delete an Extended partition with linux on it, next time I restarted Windows had lost itself
[04:25] <shane634> rr72, not sure
[04:25] <jessid> thingy there is an error when i type that command
[04:25] <patrick_> thingy, thats what Im saying the plugin is saying its not present although it actually is as I have downloaded and installed it
[04:25] <thingy> patrick_, install the 32bit mplayer debs you can find on the forums if you want to play them on a regular basis
[04:26] <patrick_> thingy, will they know to use my 32 bit ff
[04:26] <PMantis> ALL: I figured out why Update Manager couldn't see Feisty as an option... somehow the user agent was not allowed through the proxy server.
[04:26] <bonglord> would having a dual core processor (intel core2), make WINE _significantly_ faster when running an app, like flash?
[04:26] <vox754> demonspork, that is funny... using windows to manage partitions... use a live CD next time, like Ubuntu or Knoppix
[04:26] <anon48087> zeroday: ENVY ERROR: Envy does not recognise your card as compatible with any version of the driver.                    this might happen because either your card is not supported by the driver or Envy's hardware                    detection failed. You can try the manual installation at your risk.
[04:26] <patrick_> bonglord, perhaps so
[04:26] <jessid> thingy man now i can see it...thanks a lot!!!!!!
[04:26] <luke_> how do u install a font theme (eg the buuf theme)
[04:26] <luke_> ?
[04:26] <thingy> patrick_, the only way you can play divx/mov files in something like firefox is via a vlc / totem like plugin, but this means youll need a 32bit vlc or totem as well
[04:27] <zouzou85> hi guys
[04:27] <thingy> jessid, what port was it?
[04:27] <jessid> thingy...thanks a lot!!!!!! you dont know how grateful i am!!!!
[04:27] <zeroday> anon48087: odd when i was looking through your lspci i also couldnt make put the driver
[04:27] <ctroncoa> Hey guys, I'm trying to compile the ALSA drivers in feisty, but I keep getting an error when trying to "sudo make", it's something about linux/config.h: No such file or directory
[04:27] <zeroday> anon48087: how old is the laptop
[04:27] <demonspork> I am attempting Testdisk to recover it, but all I am sure that I willl be able to recover is my Files partition at the beginning of the drive because I remember how many cyliners it was
[04:27] <jessid> thingy ttyUSB0
[04:27] <anon48087> zeroday: about 4 years old
[04:27] <patrick_> ok thingy so I should check the forum for a guide to installing the 32bit versions of these
[04:28] <zeroday> anon48087: i dont think ati have drivers for that old we can try but it may break your linux back up your stuff first
[04:28] <shane634> anon48087, did you try the driver in Applications--> Add/remove?
[04:28] <zeroday> shane634: YES HE DID
[04:28] <shane634> zeroday, thanks.. no need to shout mate
[04:28] <shane634> lol
[04:29] <thingy> patrick_, if you want...look just to save you the time and effort...browsers + media codecs/playback are  a problem area in 64bit archs. So, save yourself the time and hassle and stick with i386.
[04:29] <ctroncoa> what is the protocol for asking questions in #ALSA ? ...
[04:29] <kevin__> what is the php package name?
[04:29] <anon48087> zeroday: ok
[04:29] <rr72> shane634~ so ur saying if i install restricted modules all my problems will be solved?
[04:29] <kiasanth> Hey, I'm a software developer wanting to make some games for linux, anyone know what package contains 'autoconf', 'automake', 'libtool' etc?
[04:29] <zeroday> anon48087: anything important
[04:29] <wastrel> kiasanth:  do you have build-essential installed?
[04:29] <anon48087> nope
[04:29] <patrick_> thingy, is that not a waste of hardware???
[04:29] <shane634> rr72, i am no linux expert.. only saying that may help in your quest
[04:30] <kiasanth> dunno, I'll look
[04:30] <zeroday> anon48087: great! do manual ati install and choose the oldest driver version
[04:30] <rr72> shane634~ ive been working on this for over a week
[04:30] <thompa> nevermind then ill get my coat
[04:30] <thingy> patrick_, no...honestly its not! you will not be running ANYTHING which will take advantage of a 64bit arch. I would be very surprised if you were
[04:30] <vox754> kiasanth, then you are not that of a pro... anyways, go to #ubuntu-programming
[04:30] <shane634> rr72, have you tried the restricted modules or not?
[04:30] <anon48087> zeroday: alright
[04:30] <kiasanth> wastrel: ubuntu seems to work different in it's packages to mandrake (Which I'm used to)
[04:30] <zeroday> anon48087: good luck
[04:31] <rr72> shane634~ im doing a fresh ubuntu install cause i fucked up my kernel drivers
[04:31] <rr72> but im sure i did
[04:31] <wastrel> kiasanth:  i believe mandrake uses rpm.  debs are better :]
[04:31] <patrick_> thingy, ok, well thx anyhow.. I think I will cry thinking about the work that I have done so far on this install
[04:31] <shane634> !language
[04:31] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:31] <rr72> i want to know why xubuntu works while kubuntu and ubuntu don't
[04:31] <thompa> ok going to try reboot server r22 catch you later if your there
[04:31] <zeroday> !language | rr72
[04:31] <ubotu> rr72: please see above
[04:31] <antmangaka> hi again :P
[04:31] <rr72> !coc | rr72
[04:31] <ross> hello people
[04:31] <nikin> hmm i try just one more time to get that 7.04 to work :D
[04:32] <ryanakca> I have a dual core CPU. Is there a way to make a certain process use only 1 core?
[04:32] <kiasanth> wastrel: I looked over my packages, can't see anything related to "Build-essential"
[04:32] <shane634> rr72, calm down mate we will work it out... there is a known bug and workaround
[04:32] <vox754> patrick_, I always tell this to people: probably 64 bit processors are cheaper to manufacture now, but that doesn't mean applications are ready yet.
[04:32] <bonglord> hi ross
[04:32] <patrick_> vox754, ok
[04:32] <thingy> patrick_, :-) sorry...but honestly i dont wish anyone to go through the effort and be disappointed afterwards...most people end up compromising and just live with the problems and others give up and go back to i386.
[04:32] <luke_> what is a good alternative to kiba-dock?
[04:33] <rr72> shane634~ im kinda aggravated cause ive been @ this for a stupid week
[04:33] <bonglord> does anyone else have windows opening, maximising behind the current focused window?
[04:33] <zeroday> luke_: gnome dock or avant window navigator
[04:33] <wastrel> kiasanth:  sudo apt-get install build-essential    also,   apt-cache search   to search for packages (apt-cache search automake)   apt-cache policy    to see if you have them installed  (apt-cache policy automake)
[04:33] <Dirk1> hey there, i need some help i'm geting this error "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. " what is that
[04:33] <ross> what are we discussing
[04:33] <bonglord> when using beryl
[04:33] <luke_> zeroday, thanks
[04:33] <shane634> rr72, i know the feeling mate i have used linux less than a year lol
[04:33] <patrick_> thingy, I will continue trying although I expect that its just as you said
[04:33] <rr72> shane634~ your lucky, i have too much experience
[04:33] <ross> I havent ben able to get it to work either
[04:33] <bonglord> beryl?
[04:33] <shane634> rr72, i like to read lol
[04:33] <ross> yep
[04:33] <thompa> beryl and network connection was the problem
[04:34] <vox754> kiasanth, "aptitude show build-essential"
[04:34] <rr72> shane634~ ubuntu maybe a year, RH, SuSE for i don't know, a few
[04:34] <thompa> i also had to disable desktop effects which is compiz
[04:34] <thompa> now i got a wired connection
[04:34] <thompa> weird
[04:34] <ross> every time i start beryl it either freezes or reverts back to metacity manager
[04:34] <bonglord> ross: i got it working easy, what kind of graphics card do you have?
[04:34] <wastrel> show is hella wordy :p
[04:34] <zeroday> thompa: dont use dsktop Effets use beryl
[04:34] <shane634> thompa, that is not on by default for a reason lol
[04:35] <ross> ati 9200se 128mb
[04:35] <ross> pci
[04:35] <thompa> zeroday: i started with desktop effects and was hen using beryl, do i have to disable it
[04:35] <bonglord> ross: and you installed the ATI drivers?
[04:35] <zeroday> thompa: disable desktop effects
[04:35] <thompa> brb
[04:36] <Dirk1> hey there, i need some help i'm geting this error "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. " what is that
[04:36] <ross> yes well i think i have gone through so many drivers
[04:36] <somedude> Is the base install of ubuntu server command prompt only?
[04:36] <wastrel> somedude:  yes
[04:36] <shane634> Dirk1, run that command in terminal
[04:36] <thompa> zeroday: they are, im going to try it again
[04:36] <zeroday> Dirk1: run the command already
[04:36] <debaserx> Dirk1: maybe 'dpkg --configure -a'?
[04:36] <bonglord> and you're using the latest versions of beryl and ubuntu?
[04:36] <somedude> any way to simply get xwindows running?
[04:36] <zeroday> ross: have you tries the envy script
[04:36] <mikere> I enabled desktop effects and they work - mostly.  Just lose the minimize, maximize and close buttons and the ability to resize windows
[04:36] <Makarius> Hi everyone, I'm trying to install the ALSA drivers for feisty, but I keep getting an error, please HELP.
[04:37] <shane634> mikere, haha mostly eh
[04:37] <ross> well now i am running flgrx
[04:37] <rr72> shane634~ im going to make my own kernel if i get deperate
[04:37] <force> hi, i have xubuntu 7.04 desktop i386 and during the installation i get this error: busybox says /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off and i'm prompted to input a command
[04:37] <mikere> shane634: yah!  everything wobbles very nicely
[04:37] <ross> yes i ran envy
[04:37] <force> i have googled but there is no solution i can find
[04:37] <shane634> mikere, just does nothing else lol
[04:37] <shane634> rr72, no need mate
[04:38] <Altair85> Excuse me, I cannot get Fiesty installed, it always freezes on the step that launches the partition editor, I tried launching GParted but it never stops scanning all devices, what can I do?
[04:38] <rr72> shane634~ its not hard, even tho i lose support
[04:38] <Makarius> JESUS CHRIST PLEASE HELP ME
[04:38] <rr72> !caps | Makarius
[04:38] <ubotu> Makarius: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[04:38] <wastrel> i don't think jesus is here
[04:38] <antmangaka> i am using ati restricted drivers that came with ubuntu can i install the one from ati and beryl will still work?
[04:38] <mikere> shane634: well.... the programs keep *working*, but I can't resize, minimize, close them or anything.  So I'd say it's about 50/50 working.  Totally useless for every day use, of course.
[04:38] <somedude> is there a simple way to install qnome or kde on a server install?
[04:38] <shane634> antmangaka, a toss up at best
[04:38] <JesusChrist> hi
[04:38] <demonspork> I would kill for a KVM switch right now
[04:38] <Makarius> hi jesus
[04:38] <force> ill give you mine if you kill me
[04:38] <ross> Bonglord any sugestions
[04:38] <thompa> that worked
[04:39] <zeroday> somedude: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[04:39] <KNY> any word on when thunderbird 2 will come to synaptic?
[04:39] <shane634> somedude, sure sudo apt-get install gnome-desktop
[04:39] <somedude> thx
[04:39] <antmangaka> hehe shane634: i didnt understand what you mean
[04:39] <vox754> bonglord, very funny
[04:39] <Makarius> oh my god i'm so frustrated i'm gonna kill myself
[04:39] <Parmenion> hey guys
[04:39] <Parmenion> what happened Makarius
[04:39] <zeroday> hey Parmenion
[04:39] <zeroday> lol
[04:39] <shane634> antmangaka, it may or may not work if you switch drivers
[04:39] <rr72> sorry im gettin off topic
[04:39] <Makarius> I can't compile the ALSA drivers and noone in #ALSA answers me!
[04:39] <force> anyone got a solution to my problem?
[04:40] <antmangaka> ouch :(
[04:40] <thompa> Makarius: what error
[04:40] <shane634> antmangaka, hey if it ain't broke don't fix it
[04:40] <Crazytom> Makarius, i just bought a new soundcard....
[04:40] <rr72> shane634~ i wish i could live by that philosphy
[04:40] <_jesus_> Jesus is in the house
[04:40] <bonglord> ross: i can't think of anything
[04:40] <Altair85> Excuse me, I cannot get Fiesty installed, it always freezes on the step that launches the partition editor, I tried launching GParted but it never stops scanning all devices, what can I do?  :-$
[04:40] <rr72> wtg demonspork
[04:40] <thompa> Makarius: you know you need build essential right?
[04:41] <shane634> rr72, me too i break this test box all the time.. hence all the reading lol
[04:41] <matjan> does anyone know if it is possbile to symlink a file or directory that is on a fat32 partition to an ext3 partition?
[04:41] <Makarius> Well, I did a ./configure blah blah and it worked OK, but when trying to "sudo make", it says:  linux/config.h: No such file or directory
[04:41] <rr72> shane634~ u want reading go to evil evil gentoo
[04:41] <Parmenion> ok ... why is this place so empty now?
[04:41] <KNY> matjan, try it and see?
[04:41] <Makarius> yes, i have build essential
[04:41] <rr72> i had that for a week then i erased it
[04:41] <shane634> i can't wait to break my new Aurora 9700
 yes it's possible
[04:41] <zeroday> Parmenion: dunno the amricans are sleeping
[04:41] <eck> Makarius: do you have the linux headers?
[04:41] <ross> Im not asleep
[04:41] <kevin__> i just installed php4 and when i open a php link it tries to download it why???????????
[04:41] <KNY> zeroday, eh?
[04:41] <kevin__> me either
[04:41] <MarcN> matjan: only from ext3 (which supports symlinks) to fat32.  links are stored in the file system
[04:41] <KNY> it's 10:41pm on the east coast
[04:41] <eck> Makarius: also, you do not need to run make with sudo, only make install
[04:42] <antmangaka> thansk shane634
[04:42] <PMantis> zeroday, Not all of them. :)
[04:42] <KNY> no one is asleep
[04:42] <ross> same here
[04:42] <zeroday> KNY: oh my bad
[04:42] <ross> where on east cost
[04:42] <Parmenion> hey zeroday=) was under severe lag
[04:42] <shane634> antmangaka, no problem
[04:42] <thompa> Makarius: that makes sense headers..
[04:42] <Makarius> eck: I think so, but just to be sure, how can i install the linux headers
[04:42] <KNY> ross, north east
[04:42] <shane634> i am in the US and awake.. kinda

[04:42] <thompa> where is r22_ ?
[04:42] <eck> Makarius: oh, i think i read something about config.h being deprecated in the kernel now...
[04:42] <KNY> kevin__, you need to reconfigure apache /  set it to parse PHP (add mime-type)
[04:42] <zeroday> sorry americans im in asia got timing wrong
[04:42] <Parmenion> zeroday, i swapped to wired and im still getting crap speeds
[04:42] <eck> Makarius: let me see...
[04:42] <goxen> hi
[04:42] <force> I have tried turning ACPI off but it still happens.
[04:42] <PMantis> ross, Miami?
[04:42] <whta> anyone know offhand the link to the guide to setting up a windows xp vm?
[04:43] <Parmenion> force, did you upgrade ?
[04:43] <KNY> ross, I've never been to the deep south. Is it as scary as I imagine?
[04:43] <Makarius> my god
