[05:40] <Ashfire908> is there a way to delete a GNOME theme from the gnome theme manager?
[05:40] <MajorPayne> Punkunity: Humm.  Maybe you saved it somewhere else, home directory?
[05:40] <Punkunity> nm MajorPayne im on drugs ty sorry to bug ya
[05:40] <dormedas> Evilbad: you don't have that library
[05:41] <Evilbadwrong> According to synaptic, I do, though dormedas....
[05:41] <MajorPayne> Punkunity: Don't worry about it.
[05:41] <dormedas> Evilbad: or needs to be updated, i think
[05:41] <craig_> CheeseGardener, when you find out, let me know.  I'm constantly hitting it with my thumbs when typing
[05:41] <MajorPayne> MISTERTibbs: Don't panic BTW, I am sure you can get it fixed.  You can hop on IRC using the live cd.  All your data is still there.
[05:41] <dormedas> Evilbad: may i suggest a reinstall of libc?
[05:41] <CheeseGardener> Yeah me too
[05:41] <bullgard4> lspci -vv output includes for example: "00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [UHCI] )Subsystem: Wistron Corp. Unknown device 10a5". Is the number 00:1d.0 a part of the PCI namespace?
[05:41] <Evilbadwrong> Ok, dormedas. Thanks!
[05:42] <dormedas> Evilbad: Consult someone else after this if it doesn't work
[05:42] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, I'm rebooting now.  I chatting on laptop, the desktop is funky.
[05:42] <Evilbadwrong> Heheh...ok
[05:42] <elnimr> i have a file that i think does a self checksum or so but it is not working
[05:42] <elnimr> do i need to install any packages
[05:42] <ntbnnt> cheesegarder: check out your device manager and see if you see anything obvious about touchpads
[05:42] <cardanto1> hmm . . . anyone know why gparted would run from command prompt, but not from toolbar . . .(fiesty)
[05:42] <ntbnnt> cheesegarder: then disable
[05:42] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, just goes to show.  the son of an engineer can NEVER leave well enough alone.  I know just enough to be dangerous.
[05:42] <Punkunity> i f'in did it woo hoo ty MajorPayne
[05:43] <MajorPayne> Punkunity: No problem.
[05:43] <Punkunity> rad
[05:43] <jtong> hi, how do u guys run server jobs without a root user in ubuntu?
[05:44] <CheeseGardener> Ok I found it
[05:44] <Evilbadwrong> Ok...I keep getting a "Dependency not satisfiable: libc6" error even after reinstalling it.....I'm trying to install Warsow :P
[05:44] <CheeseGardener> how do I disable it now?  it is under device manager...
[05:45] <DDG008> was able to find a good mirror
[05:45] <DDG008> now with the live cd will the internet work too
[05:45] <jtong> how come there is no root in ubuntu?
[05:45] <MajorPayne> jtong: Are you talking about something you install with a package manager or a server of your own?
[05:45] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, quick question.  I rebooted and selected boot from the hard drive.  ls
[05:45] <MajorPayne> !sudo | jtong
[05:45] <ubotu> jtong: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:45] <jtong> package manager
[05:45] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, oops.
[05:45] <jtong> yes i use sudo
[05:45] <dormedas> Evilbadwrong:  umm.. trying to install it? hmmm
[05:46] <Twinxor> gar
[05:46] <MajorPayne> jtong: It's there, it just has no password.
[05:46] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, ok, i rebooted and got the live cd desktop.  now searching for my files.
[05:46] <Evilbadwrong> dormedas: trying to install warsow, and that is the error I keep getting.
[05:46] <jtong> currently my apache is ran by ? when i do ps
[05:47] <CheeseGardener> Does anyone know how to disable a device in device manager?
[05:47] <jtong> and it can't read some config file unless i give read access to others using sudo
[05:47] <dormedas> Evilbadwrong: I really wouldn't know.. I got this error earlier because I was missing a package in the same directory as a .deb file. Perhpas you need a libc install .deb next to the warsow install .deb? I really wouldn't know, but thats just a hunch..
[05:47] <MajorPayne> jtong: The package manager should take care of the users for you.
[05:47] <rockets> Who wants to take bets on me getting steam to work under wine on 64 bit ubuntu
[05:47] <Evilbadwrong> dormedas: I have no idea...anyone else want to chime in on this? :)
[05:47] <icemanblues> hey, how do you get world of warcraft to run in ubuntu
[05:47] <dormedas> rockets: i bet it will work -- minimally :P
[05:48] <rockets> icemanblues, simple
[05:48] <MajorPayne> MISTERTibbs: Ok.  I am not sure where it is mounted.  It may be under /mnt or /media (most likely) or there may be an icon right on your desktop.
[05:48] <dormedas> icemanblues Cedega or modify Wine
[05:48] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, still looking.
[05:48] <rockets> icemanblues, install it in windows, copy the installation directory to ubuntu and run it under wine
[05:48] <rockets> you dont need to modify wine
[05:48] <varustah> wubi = awesome
[05:48] <jtong> MajorPayne: but i have a file that i want to restrict access to its owner and root
[05:48] <Gaming1> How do I configure Evolution to show images in messages?
[05:48] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, found.  shows up as "disk".  Attempting to point terminal to location
[05:48] <MajorPayne> jtong: Use chmod.
[05:49] <jtong> MajorPayne: i know chmod
[05:49] <jtong> now my access is 700 so apache wont have access to the file if it's not run by root
[05:50] <MajorPayne> jtong: chmod it to apaches user.  I think it 'may' be www-data.  I don't run apache on Ubuntu, only on debian.
[05:50] <MajorPayne> jtong: You will still be able to edit it with root, root is the super user.
[05:50] <icemanblues> okay, how do I install starcraft?
[05:50] <bloo> jtong: chown it to apache's user
[05:50] <icemanblues> I need to prepare for starcraft 2
[05:51] <MajorPayne> jtong: err, yea, chown.
[05:51] <dormedas> icemanblues: I've heard it runs well under Wine :P
[05:51] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, found it and edited!  Now attempting reboot.  standby...
[05:51] <jtong> what's apache's user? i get ? as the user when i ps
[05:52] <bloo> grep User /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
[05:53] <jtong> bloo: www-data it is, thanks!
[05:53] <bloo> jtong: no prob
[05:53] <jtong> bloo: is this the way u run all servers in ubuntu?
[05:53] <bloo> jtong: dunno, i haven't run ubuntu long.  some run as their own users, some run as root
[05:54] <jtong> bloo: i came from slackware and it's a bit uncomfortable without root :P
[05:54] <MajorPayne> jtong: sudo -i can get you a root like terminal.
[05:54] <bloo> jtong: def run httpd as someone who's not root
[05:54] <dormedas> MajorPayne: GParted is finishing the copy (almost) so I will soon see if my liberation is a success
[05:54] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, all systems go!  I commented the offending line and am now back where I started this adventure.  Thank you very much.
[05:55] <bloo> jtong: you may want to chown -R www-data <whatever directory> you were changing just in chase
[05:55] <MajorPayne> MISTERTibbs: Remember how you did that just incase you mess up again.  And I suggest making a backup of your menu.lst.
[05:55] <jtong> alrighty thanks bloo and MajorPayne
[05:55] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Ok.  I am not sure, but you may have to change some grub stuff.
[05:55] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Don't remove the old partition right away.
[05:55] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, backup?   what is this backup of which u speak?  LOL!  Yes, you are so right.  ty again.
[05:56] <DDG008> this is nuts
[05:56] <dormedas> MajorPayne: Hell no, I'll try to boot into it first :P
[05:56] <DDG008> i am having so many issues getting this live cd downloaded
[05:56] <madman91> WHAT IS  a good download speed limiter?
[05:56] <DDG008> why did it download at 726 mb
[05:56] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Yea, you may have to tell grub to boot into the new partition.
[05:56] <ri[uhh] tkittie> wow. irc on gaim is like. gross. but anyway!
[05:56] <Dr_willis> DDG008,  rounding issues..  when ya burn it - it should fit on a 700mb cd.
[05:56] <Dr_willis> :)
[05:56] <dormedas> MajorPayne: "All Operations completed successfully!!!!!!!!"
[05:56] <MajorPayne> ri[uhh] tkittie: Try either X-Chat or irssi.
[05:57] <dormedas> i reccomend irssi
[05:57] <dormedas> just switched :D
[05:57] <craig_> dormedas, YAY!
[05:57] <ri[uhh] tkittie> MajorPayne: irssi is my secret boyfriend, but not an option at the moment
[05:57] <DDG008> the file is saying its 760 mb
[05:57] <Dr_willis> 727867392 2007-07-22 10:35 kubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso   is what i got.
[05:57] <meoblast001> how would i install xen?
[05:57] <MajorPayne> ri[uhh] tkittie: Then X-Chat is a good GUI alternative.
[05:57] <dormedas> Craig_: thanks a ton Craig!!!! Now to see the success :D!
[05:58] <dormedas> MajorPayne: Now i need to find out which "ubuntu" on GRUB is the real deal
[05:58] <meoblast001> i dont know which package has xen. anyone else know?
[05:58] <Dr_willis> !xen
[05:58] <joey_me> Hi, there
[05:59] <ri[uhh] tkittie> MajorPayne:  if i had the ability to use something other than gaim, trust me, i'd be using something else. right now, it's gaim. or nothing.
[05:59] <meoblast001> Dr_willis: you !xen didnt work
[05:59] <ri[uhh] tkittie> unless i want to install chatzilla. and i dont.
[05:59] <Dr_willis> meoblast001,  or the bot is lagged.
[05:59] <Dr_willis> !find xen
[05:59] <ubotu> XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XenOnEdgy
[05:59] <ubotu> Found: libxen3.0, libxen3.0-dev, autopkgtest-xenlvm, gtk-engines-xenophilia, libc6-xen (and 102 others)
[05:59] <MajorPayne> ri[uhh] tkittie: Ohh.  Goodluck with that.  For me, as long as I have ssh and an internet connection I have a screen session with irssi.
[05:59] <dormedas> MajorPayne: how will I know which Ubuntu is the correct one?
[06:00] <ri[uhh] tkittie> MajorPayne:  lucky you :P
[06:00] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Humm.  df if you know what partition is what.
[06:00] <MajorPayne> dormedas: See what is mounted at /
[06:00] <dormedas> MajorPayne: my first one which is old is mounted on sda4.. the new one is sda1
[06:01] <ri[uhh] tkittie> Ok. on to my stupid question for the hour. I've finally found a feisty live disc in my pile of cds that works. to the point i can get a desktop. and irc from gaim. sweet. but. it's not final.
[06:01] <ri[uhh] tkittie> can install whatever herd this is, and then upgrade to the real deal, with upgrade manager?  i dont see why not. but i thought i'd ask.
[06:01] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Ok, df will tell you what one you are using.  It should show it mounted as /.
[06:01] <fholmes> How can I find out what my dvd drive identifier is?
[06:01] <dormedas> what's df?
[06:01] <ri[uhh] tkittie> or i could just boot back into windows and try burning again. but i'm too sober for that at the moment.
[06:02] <MajorPayne> dormedas: It is a command line tool.  Just open a terminal and type df.
[06:02] <fholmes> dormedas:  df - disk free space.
[06:02] <n00dl3> df -h
[06:02] <dormedas> MajorPayne: alright.. the  correct one will most likely be the one I can boot into
[06:02] <dormedas> and get onto the desktop
[06:02] <ri[uhh] tkittie> -h is your friend. srsly.
[06:02] <dormedas> -h is who?
[06:03] <fholmes> -h human readable
[06:03] <Dr_willis> My Showdisk Alias ---------->       df -h -x tmpfs -x devpts -x usbfs
[06:03] <n00dl3> Your friend.
[06:03] <ri[uhh] tkittie> -h is a flag to use with df. which puts it into human readable format.
[06:03] <Dr_willis> Cleans up the df output a lot
[06:03] <Dr_willis> :)
[06:03] <MajorPayne> Yea, -h is great.  But if you just want to know what is mounted where df alone will do fine.
[06:03] <fholmes> makes it human readable.  :-)
[06:03] <dormedas> MajorPayne: ill try both if just df isnt enough
[06:03] <ri[uhh] tkittie> eh. why use df to find out whats mounted where ? why not mount?
[06:03] <dormedas> MajorPayne: I suppose I will now boot off the live CD and go see my success
[06:03] <fholmes> They need a -g instead of making you do -h.  -g geek readable
[06:04] <madman91> WHAT IS  a good download speed limiter?
[06:04] <n00dl3> Yeah, mount would be better for that imo
[06:04] <dormedas> fholmes, -g is just the regular
[06:04] <dormedas> fholmes, they need a -b for binary readable
[06:04] <fholmes> It is a little back aswords
[06:04] <MajorPayne> Yea, mount is good to.
[06:04] <ri[uhh] tkittie> fholmes: geek readable = without the h ... or do you want to decipher output in binary?
[06:04] <Dr_willis> madman91,  i dont think anyone knows what you are talking about.
[06:04] <bex> can someone tell me where my bookmarks file is located?
[06:04] <File13> When i shut the lid on my laptop i have it set to suspend but yet the laptop doesnt really go into suspend mode, the battery still runs as if the computer was up and running
[06:04] <dormedas> ok, i suppose I will boot off the live CD
[06:05] <dormedas> YAY
[06:05] <ri[uhh] tkittie> madman91: no clue, sorry. only one i know of is for windows
[06:05] <MajorPayne> bex: Do you want to export your bookmarks?
[06:05] <bex> MajorPayne: i want to back them up
[06:05] <Wilo> MajorPayne, i have ubuntu edgy 6.10 installed on my desktop atm, and at the login splash screen, i login with correct psw and username and it loads into ubuntu then instead of loading the gui, devices ect, it loops back to the main login screen, any idea what would cause that?
[06:05] <MajorPayne> bex: Open up the bookmark manager, go to file -> export.
[06:05] <bex> MajorPayne: i am on a livecd right now
[06:05] <MajorPayne> bex: That will put them into a html file that you can import later.
[06:06] <MajorPayne> Wilo: Nope.  Sorry, but maybe someone else does.
[06:06] <osxdude|lap> Where can I find a pre-compiled Purple Plugin Pack? I downloaded from here http://plugins.guifications.org/trac/downloads and I have no idea on how to compile it...
[06:06] <Wilo> anyone you could recommend to ask MajorPayne?
[06:06] <MajorPayne> bex: Humm.  I am not sure how you can go about that.
[06:07] <dormedas> MajorPayne: BTW GRUB still finds Windows XP and thats not good
[06:07] <MajorPayne> Wilo: Ask the channel, if anyone knows how to help you they will.
[06:07] <ri[uhh] tkittie> dormedas: why isnt it good? did you remove XP?
[06:07] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Grub doesn't find it, it's still in your menu.lst file.
[06:08] <MajorPayne> dormedas: That's the least of your worrys right now.
[06:08] <ri[uhh] tkittie> ok. i'm feeling masochistic enough to go reburn fiesty. wish me luck :|
[06:08] <dormedas> MajorPayne: good thig to say beforehand huh?
[06:08] <w30> File13, my laptop has a light that stays on but flashes on suspend and on hibernate everything goes out. Close lid is set to lock screen on mine as default but could be changed.
[06:09] <dormedas> MajorPayne: so how would I go about booting into my sda1 partition without GRUB finding it?
[06:09] <File13> I did change it, it just appears to not be going in to suspend
[06:09] <madman91> Dr_willis: to run a program.. but only let it have .. 50kbytes/sec
[06:09] <madman91> speed
[06:09] <Wilo> does anyone know how to fix passw permissions? i have ubuntu edgy 6.10 installed on my desktop atm, and at the login splash screen, i login with correct psw and username and it loads into ubuntu then instead of loading the gui, devices ect, it loops back to the main login screen, any idea what would cause that?
[06:10] <dormedas> MajorPayne: grrr. Not cool. I can't boot into Ubuntu because of the GDM thing and ... GRUB cant find my newly copied Ubuntu
[06:10] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, full /home can do that.
[06:10] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Go into your old partition, open /boot/grub/menu.lst in a text editor.
[06:10] <kkathman> how does one go about creating a NEW keyboard shortcut to launch, say, the gnome confifig tool ??
[06:10] <Wilo> dawn`chorus how do i get into that?
[06:11] <dormedas> MajorPayne: I'll do that by command line then
[06:11] <MajorPayne> dormedas: I am not sure what you mean by GDM thing.
[06:12] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, you're in a livecd?
[06:12] <dormedas> MajorPayne: "cannot write to the GDM Administration file due to lack of free space" or something. Meaning I can never open GDM
[06:12] <izzyb> I'm having problems getting my wifi card working with the xen kernel, but it works just fine with the standard kernel.  Is this a known problem with a document explaining a solution?
[06:12] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, here's an irritation that might even challenge you.  I tried ubuntuME and then deleted it completely, including artwork.  However, somewhere on booting up, a script keeps assigning a GRUB splashimage file to the (removed) ubuntuME splash.  Ideas??
[06:12] <File13> Quick question, ripping videos off youtube and editing them on ubuntu, is it possible?
[06:12] <dormedas> MajorPayne: the stem reason for all of this Partition editing and whatnot
[06:12] <brontos> Anyone know of a way to keep system messages from showing up in terminal windows but still be logged?
[06:12] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, just fire up gparted.  you familiar ?
[06:12] <jetscreamer> of course file13
[06:12] <MajorPayne> MISTERTibbs: I don't even know what ubuntuME is.
[06:13] <MISTERTibbs> Muslim edition.
[06:13] <Wilo> dawn`chorus negative. i have ubuntu 6.10 install on its own partion.. i have had it operational for about 5 months... but for some reason it recently shat itself
[06:13] <File13> how would i go about doing that then?
[06:13] <Neural_Overload> Anyone know how to create a shortcut type thing in "Computer"?
[06:13] <Neural_Overload> Like
[06:13] <Wilo> dawn`chorus sorry, im not familar.. im only newb at unix commands :(
[06:13] <MajorPayne> MISTERTibbs: I don't know.
[06:13] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, it's just ubuntu with customzied art, themes and a couple of applications.  just like christian edition
[06:13] <Gaming1> Muslim Edition?
[06:13] <Neural_Overload> I want it to link to my windows partition like cdrom does
[06:14] <Neural_Overload> I dont know if I explained myself well
[06:14] <MISTERTibbs> Gaming1, yeah, just like the christian edition of ubuntu.  comes with Koran, porn block and some art
[06:14] <dormedas> MajorPayne: im going to open that up in Nano, just tell me what to edit where
[06:14] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, basically we need to "look" at the partition to see how full it is.  You're on the computer that has the disk with 6.10 installed on it, right?
[06:14] <Wilo> yeah its bout 5m away
[06:14] <MISTERTibbs> MajorPayne, where would I seek out the script?
[06:14] <Wilo> your right, the computer has abour 100% partion used
[06:14] <palintheus> MISTERTibbs: I know there is an old thread about changing the splash images on the ubuntu forums
[06:14] <Gaming1> Where do I read more about it?
[06:15] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, make some space, any way you can.  :)
[06:15] <rockets> Nice I have steam + counterstrike working on 64 bit ubuntu
[06:15] <w30> File13, read man apmsleep for cpu usage with suspend mode
[06:15] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Nevermind about editing the old one, you will want to edit the new one.
[06:15] <MISTERTibbs> palintheus, ok.  I'll search.  It's just weird that the script is still live but the "distro" has been killed.  I call it zombie ubuntuME
[06:15] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, you can use the program "gparted" if your disk has some space for the partition to grow.
[06:15] <Wilo> dawn`chorus how can i do that, run a live cd and delete files of my ha2?
[06:15] <Wilo> hda2*
[06:15] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Do you have the new partition mounted?  df or mount will tell you that.
[06:16] <dormedas> MajorPayne... ok
[06:16] <dormedas> MajorPayne: I will see
[06:16] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, yes.  or enlarge the partition.  either one.
[06:16] <osxdude|lap> um, tty6 is frozen right now...how can I unfreeze it?
[06:16] <palintheus> MISTERTibbs: I'll search too, I think I posted in it, if I find it I will let you know
[06:16] <Wilo> dawn`chorus i have used gparted before i think.. but how do i use it, its been a while since i have used it
[06:16] <dawn`chorus> wow.  xchat 2.8.4 autocorrects spelling errors.  :)
[06:16] <iKitteh> jesus.....
[06:16] <MISTERTibbs> palintheus, thank you.
[06:16] <Neural_Overload> Okay, since no one answered my question, Ill rephrase it...
[06:16] <osxdude|lap> I got it, neva mind
[06:16] <iKitteh> there is an ubuntu irc channel.
[06:16] <rockets> dawn`chorus, gutsy?
[06:16] <Neural_Overload> I just mounted my windows partition
[06:17] <dormedas> MajorPayne: it appears sda1 IS mounted ... but 100% full?!?!?!?
[06:17] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, it's really intuitive.  you'll just drag the right side of partition to the right.
[06:17] <Neural_Overload> But I want a link or... whatever the type of file it is that links to filesystem  in computer
[06:17] <dormedas> MajorPayne: how the hell did that happen?!
[06:17] <dawn`chorus> rockets, gentoo.  i come in here to feel useful.  :)

[06:19] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  and you can have several dozen vnc sessions that are hidden.
[06:19] <Neural_Overload> Okay
[06:19] <Neural_Overload> I want to make a file
[06:19] <dormedas> MajorPayne: umm, it uses "dd" to copy..
[06:20] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  vnc is a very flexiable tool. the 'shreing the current desktop' is one way of using it.
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> That links to my windows partition that I mounted
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> the same type that is in "Computer"
[06:20] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Humm.  Is it the same size as your old one?
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> I want to create one in "Computer"
[06:20] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  ssh to remote box, run vncserver, use vncclient on local box. conect to remote
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> The files in "Computer"
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> Have
[06:20] <bruenig> !enter
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> The mime type of
[06:20] <dormedas> MajorPayne: no sir, it's 32 GB .. not 3
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> application/x-desktop
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> and say
[06:20] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:20] <bruenig> Neural_Overload, stop
[06:20] <Guilty_as_Sin> hey does ME come with open source nukes?
[06:20] <Neural_Overload> ?
[06:21] <Wilo> dawn`chorus so how do i use gparted to clear up space on my partion that has ubuntu installed on it?
[06:21] <bruenig> this is
[06:21] <bruenig> not
[06:21] <bruenig> acceptable
[06:21] <Neural_Overload> Oh
[06:21] <bruenig> it
[06:21] <bruenig> spams
[06:21] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Ohh.  Humm.
[06:21] <MajorPayne> !enter | bruenig
[06:21] <ubotu> bruenig: please see above
[06:21] <tom__> <Neural_Overload:Refer to to the man ln
[06:21] <Neural_Overload> K
[06:21] <Neural_Overload> Thanks tom__ , and I apologize for spamming
[06:21] <theonlyalt> Dr_willis, Thanks. I wasn't sure if that would connect me graphically or not. I'll def try it!
[06:21] <Neural_Overload> My thoughts were moving faster than my fingers
[06:21] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, well, you have to ask yourself, "is there any room on my disk so I can expand my partition"?  that's the first question.  Once you fire up gparted, it's extremely simple.
[06:22] <dormedas> majorPayne: I'm like ... super fretting right now !
[06:22] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  been using vnc for ages./ the desktop shareing feature of gnome/kde is a very new addation. :)
[06:22] <DDG008> 13mins until ubuntu because alive on my computer
[06:22] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  ive also had much better luck with the vnc4server package.
[06:22] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Don't be too worryed.  Your data is all still on your old partition right?
[06:22] <dormedas> MajorPayne: heck yes
[06:23] <dormedas> MajorPayne: technically, it's all still on the new Partition as well
[06:24] <Wilo> dawn`chorus yeah there is an extra 20gb  i can take from a old fedra core partion
[06:24] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Maybe a re-install is not a bad idea if the partition tool did not work your you.  Just make sure you don't remove the old partition.  When you are done you can then copy the data over to the new partition.
[06:24] <Cod1> is anyone here farmiliar with ubuntu + Skype?
[06:24] <theonlyalt> Dr_willis, Awesome I really appreciate the extra info!! My VERY old CRT monitor went out on my desktop computer so I've been using it as a makeshift server/second processor.
[06:24] <obf213> any one in here use deluge
[06:24] <obf213> when i tell the torrent to save in my fat32 partition
[06:24] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, yes.  kill Fedora.  remember, expanding to the right is easy; expanding to the left, hmmmm ........
[06:24] <obf213> the file doesnt shwo up
[06:25] <Wilo> yeah i think i will be expanind to the left
[06:25] <dormedas> MajorPayne: as in install a fresh ubuntu onto the SDA1.. then just reinstall my programs and whatnot?
[06:25] <obf213> yet it is downloading something
[06:25] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  you can also set up xdmcp on the remote box, and spawn a X session that has all the apps running on the remote. but seen locally. Very handy.
[06:25] <Wilo> ubuntu is hda1 and fedora is hdb1
[06:25] <dormedas> MajorPayne: not a bad idea at all. Thanks!
[06:25] <Cod1> I need help with Skype.
[06:25] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, different discs?
[06:25] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Yea, as long as you keep your old partition intact you can just copy over all the data over after the install.
[06:26] <dormedas> MajorPayne: I'll go ahead and get the Live CD in then start the install
[06:26] <bex> what's the command to delete a file?
[06:26] <ppmstr> he, The eternal question: setting ati drivers (I'm in dapper actually, with an ati mobility radeon X1600). I'm following the ubuntu-ati wiki guide (method 1) and well, you know all that: done everything they said and it won't work. One thing, since I'm running on an amd64, it seems it can help if I change $LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH variable in /etc/profile... problem is: what is the syntax for that?
[06:26] <dormedas> MajorPayne: thanks for helping me for so long
[06:26] <dawn`chorus> bex, rm file
[06:26] <bex> thanks
[06:26] <dawn`chorus> uw
[06:26] <RobertLinux> holasssssss
[06:26] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Ok, just becareful when it comes time to partition.  Don't remove your old partition if you want to be able to use the data.
[06:26] <theonlyalt> Dr_willis, I've had that going, but I was just in in need of being on both computers at once graphically (I'm not THAT good with the terminal yet.. :)
[06:26] <bob301> I have a strange problem with Firefox 2 on Ubuntu. Sometimes, the Enter key no longer works when an address is typed int he address bar. Similarly, the Go button stops functioning. The Enter key continues functioning when keywords are entered in the Google search box, and everywhere else in Ubuntu. Any ideas?
[06:26] <Wilo> dawn`chorus different hdd, i have windows on a 40gb one and a 60:20gb partion on a 80gb hdd, 60gb for ubuntu and 20 gb for fedora
[06:27] <MajorPayne> dormedas: No problem.  Sorry I couldn't help you avoid a re-install.  You are doing something quite major.
[06:27] <ppmstr> should it be a plain $LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH = /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri  ?
[06:27] <dormedas> MajorPayne: Hey, nothing more major than deleting windows
[06:27] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  ssh -Y remotebox, run stuff. it will appear on the local desktop :)
[06:28] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, OK.  sounds like ubuntu is sdb1, fedora sdb2.  just bomb sdb2 (because Fedora sucks) and expand sdb1 to the right.
[06:28] <dormedas> MajorPayne: I've had Ubuntu for about a month now hehehe. I love it so much I decided to delete Windows, that's quite a leap
[06:28] <ppmstr> any suggestion?
[06:28] <dormedas> MajorPayne: now I NEED to get Cedega if I wish to use all my Windows Games hehe
[06:28] <Wilo> dawn`chorus that would be a correct assumption... so how do i run gparted ?
[06:28] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Yea.  It should go fine, as long as you are not attached to some Windows only apps.
[06:29] <ppmstr> (or anyone that succeeded on installing an ati mobility radeon x1600 on some amd64 acer?
[06:29] <iKitteh> is all your software up to date?
[06:29] <theonlyalt> Dr_willis, will that give me clickablity to lauch apps? I'm not entirely sure what all I have installed on the second comp.
[06:29] <Punkunity> so is there a yellow dog chat room??
[06:29] <Dr_willis> games are for the weak.
[06:29] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, gksudo gparted
[06:29] <Punkunity> games are for gods
[06:29] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  you ssh over, run the app. the apps display appears locally....
[06:29] <Wilo> but i cant get to a terminal window :(
[06:29] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  if you REALLY wanted to ya could run some 'applauncherbuttonbar thing' :) i guess
[06:29] <jetscreamer> ctrl alt F1
[06:30] <MajorPayne> dormedas: You may want to create 2 main partitions.  So you can remove one later if you feel you need Windows for your games but still keep Ubuntu.
[06:30] <Wilo> dawn`chorus how do i get into a terminal session in ubuntu to be able to run gparted?
[06:30] <dinkle> hey guys i installed compiz fusion and i have it all working but cant seem to get the cube to work any suggestions?
[06:30] <ppmstr> ...
[06:30] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, well, you *can't* be in Ubuntu to expand it's partition.  Boot into a livecd.
[06:30] <dormedas> MajorPayne: I feel that I have the essential games that I like running on Ubuntu natively. So I should be set
[06:30] <theonlyalt> Dr_willis, I don't think I'm ready for to get that geeked out yet.. maybe later. I've been using the ssh -X option to get the same effect. Is that better or worse?
[06:31] <jinxed> Is there anyway I can make back up copies of my dvd's with ubuntu?
[06:31] <Guilty_as_Sin> dinkle, are you clicking in the middle wheel button?
[06:31] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  locally -Y for ssh i thionk gives a little better preformance about the same as -X
[06:31] <dinkle> yea i had it working in beryl
[06:31] <coffee> hey guys
[06:32] <ppmstr> meh
[06:32] <bullgard4> lspci -vv output includes for example: "00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [UHCI] )Subsystem: Wistron Corp. Unknown device 10a5". Is the number 00:1d.0 a part of the PCI namespace?

[06:32] <Wilo> dawn`chorus lol yeah sorry that was astupid moment of mine... hahaha ill try and run a live cd and run gparted
[06:32] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, there's a gparted livecd that I keep just for these occassion.
[06:32] <tom__> jinxed: I like k3b
[06:32] <coffee> I'm trying to install a chat client, pidgin, and I have the source but i'm not sure how to install it, the read me says, type make install but i get an error saying: make: *** No rule to make target `install'.  Stop.  any ideas?
[06:33] <millllmannnn> what is the ubuntu equivalent of "setenv"?
[06:33] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, but you can use any livecd.
[06:33] <jetscreamer> you could try just installing gaim
[06:33] <jinxed> tom how does that work
[06:33] <astro76> jinxed, if you're talking dual layer->single layer, k9copy
[06:33] <Wilo> dawn`chorus how big is this gparted live cd, i have backtrack2 live cd, that would be sufficent would it? its based on slackware kernal
[06:33] <jetscreamer> since that's all pidgin is
[06:33] <jetscreamer> !info pidgin
[06:33] <ubotu> Package pidgin does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[06:33] <ze1230> hi all.  cdrecord refuses to  burn.  Kinda new to Linux.  Don't understand the output.  Google didn't help.

[06:34] <File13> its just the file i get when i rip youtube videos
[06:34] <MajorPayne> coffee: X-Chat and irssi are the best there is.  Gaim is a poor irc client.
[06:34] <File13> and i need to know how to convert it
[06:34] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, gparted lived is ~50mb.  http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=115843&package_id=173828

[06:36] <dormedas> MajorPayne: Up and installing :D
[06:36] <MajorPayne> coffee: Yea.  Check out the other irc clients.  Maybe my comment was a bit off base, but they are the most popular.
[06:36] <Dr_willis> http://vixy.net/ This service allows you convert a Flash Video / FLV file (YouTube's videos,etc) to MPEG4
[06:36] <zerokill88> zel1230 np let me know if that worked

[06:36] <jetscreamer> they're probably going to sell it
[06:36] <File13> thanks
[06:36] <coffee> anyone know the channel to ask things about compiz fusion with ubuntu?
[06:36] <Dr_willis> !beryl
[06:36] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[06:37] <crdlb> coffee, #compiz-fusion
[06:37] <coffee> :) thanks
[06:37] <MajorPayne> dormedas: Ahh, goodluck.  I am going for a bit.
[06:37] <ze1230> E: Couldn't find package brasero
[06:37] <ze1230> :(
[06:38] <Sandisk> hello, my Memory Stick Duo Adaptor doesn't register when I plug it into my system. Where would I start troubleshooting?
[06:38] <dormedas> MajorPayne: ok then
[06:39] <Dr_willis> Sandisk,  built in laptop media reader slots?
[06:39] <ze1230> was using k3b...ripped fine but wouldn't burn either
[06:39] <ze1230> ARGH!
[06:39] <Sandisk> yes, Dr_willis
[06:39] <keen> does anyone have any experience with compiz fusion?
[06:39] <bex> what's the command for copying a file?
[06:39] <dormedas> keen: i do, a little bit
[06:40] <Sandisk> I've used USB memory sticks successfully, but nothing happens when I plug in this other one
[06:40] <Dr_willis> Sandisk,  some of those things dont have full linux support sadly. Mine works with SD/MMC cards but thats it. Get a $5 usb adaptor for them  is the best fix.
[06:40] <keen> dormedas i just installed it, and i can rotate my cube with the keyboard, but my mouse doesn't rotate it...any ideas?
[06:40] <Dr_willis> bex,  cp - and time to go find a few bash/shell tutorials..
[06:40] <Dr_willis> !bash
[06:40] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[06:40] <dormedas> keen: umm, what's your command for it? CTR+ALT+Mouse1?
[06:41] <keen> its default, whatever that it....
[06:41] <ritzcracker> anyone here use xchat for irc
[06:41] <tom__> <ze1230: What error did you get?
[06:41] <ritzcracker> in ubuntu
[06:41] <Dr_willis> ritzcracker,  a very large # of us do
[06:41] <keen> nm, its working now....its different from beryl
[06:41] <dormedas> keen: go into the compiz fusion settings ( Settings -> Preferences) and tell me if "Cube Rotate" is activated?
[06:41] <ze1230> how do I PM?
[06:42] <ritzcracker> Dr_willis: i was wondering how do i get a display of all users in this chat
[06:42] <dormedas> keen: lol
[06:42] <tom__> ze1230:  ??
[06:42] <keen> dormedas: hehe, ok, how about animations?  i have it enabled but not working
[06:42] <Sandisk> ty Dr_willis
[06:42] <dormedas> keen: same thing, go into the settings -- its prolly not activated
[06:42] <ze1230> tom: using xchat...not sure how to private message
[06:42] <dormedas> keen: mine weren't by default, but I activated them and it worked
[06:43] <ze1230> <--frustrated noob.
[06:43] <keen> dormedas: i have it check marked....just not working
[06:43] <Dr_willis> ritzcracker,  there should be a nciknamelist on the right side.. some times its resized where you cant see it. move mouse to the right till ya see the <---> arrows and resize it
[06:43] <ze1230> <---refuses to quit, though
[06:43] <Wilo> dawn`chorus ok i have a terminal window up in a livecd on the desktop that has the full partion
[06:43] <dormedas> keen: umm, hrmm...
[06:43] <ritzcracker> Dr_willis: lol thank you I can not believe i did not notice that
[06:43] <unixware> ze1230 /msg nick message
[06:43] <Dr_willis> ritzcracker,  not sure why it does that sometimes.
[06:44] <Wilo> dawn`chorus how do i run qparted and is it easy to use to resize my partions?
[06:44] <dormedas> keen: I can't look in the preferences because my Ubuntu decided to fill itself up
[06:44] <dormedas> keen: I'll help you further if no one else does as soon as the install is finished
[06:44] <ritzcracker> Now that I got that figured out lol whats the best way to resize my partions?
[06:44] <tom__>  ze1230:  Don't feel bad. In rock climbers terms, it may seem like a vertical face.
[06:44] <keen> dormedas: hehe its ok, maybe there is an option i'm unaware of...what does window match do?
[06:45] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, it's easy to use, if it's installed.  just type 'gparted' and see what happens.
[06:45] <unixware> ze1230 u need to be identify in freenode to send PM
[06:45] <dormedas> keen: window match? I wouldn't know.. umm, there is "minimize" that could be conflicting with animations
[06:46] <Wilo> dawn`chorus 'qparted' is an "unknown command'
[06:46] <kayef> i installed compiz fusion but how come my cube is only a plane?I cant get the 6 face cube, only a 2 face plane,wats wrong?
[06:46] <dormedas> Wilo: just parted
[06:46] <keen> dormedas: thanks for all your help, i think imma play with it a bit and head to bed
[06:46] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, g as in girl.
[06:46] <d4rkmonkey> !paste > d4rkmonkey
[06:46] <dormedas> keen: consult me later at<EMAIL_ADDRESS>if nothing works
[06:47] <ritzcracker> I am in gparted right now but it will not let me resize my partition that I want to resize only says unmount and i can not unmount while im in the OS should i do this from a live cd?
[06:47] <dormedas> Kayef: if it's only a plane -- make sure 3D cube is activated in the preferences (Settings --> Preferences)
[06:47] <andy____> quick question, then a long question afterward
[06:47] <w30> kayef, perhaps you have only 2 viewports in your setup, change it to 6 or at least 3
[06:48] <dawn`chorus> ritzcracker, yeah.  livecd.  or from an OS on another partition.
[06:48] <kayef> dormedas: i do have Desktop Cube enabled
[06:48] <ritzcracker> thank you
[06:48] <kayef> w30: how do i do that?
[06:48] <dawn`chorus> no problem
[06:48] <dormedas> Kayef: then do what w30 said
[06:49] <andy_cator> how come I keep getting permission denied when I try mount a shared volume from my windows box to my ubuntu laptop?
[06:49] <w30> I don't rember; I changed to beryl
[06:49] <Wilo> dormedas, i done the 'parted' and i got "Using /dev/hda" then "parted"
[06:49] <dormedas> Kayef: umm, I think it's in the General Settings
[06:49] <w30> kayef, sorry :=)
[06:49] <Wilo> dormedas so then what do i need to do to get it to show me my current partions? help --?
[06:50] <hexstar> df -h
[06:50] <dormedas> Wilo: I'm sorry, but I don't know the intracacies of parted, but df -h is it
[06:51] <hexstar> monosodium glutamate :D
[06:51] <dfgas> any how tos or debs on pidgin 2.1?
[06:51] <hexstar> mm msg :)
[06:51] <obf213> for some reason, i feel like my deluge works worse when u save on a fat32 partition
[06:51] <hexstar> !pidgin
[06:51] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy.  I knew there's manual there, but well, it's a little tricky for me to handle
[06:53] <Dr_willis> !ext3
[06:53] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[06:53] <dormedas> Wilo: I worked with the GParted GUI.. sorry :(
[06:53] <obf213> bruenig, im using deluge
[06:53] <Dr_willis> Windows can read ext2/3 :) with that tool
[06:53] <Wilo> dormedas thats fine
[06:53] <Wilo> dawn`chorus are you still here?
[06:53] <unixware> monosodium ?
[06:53] <bruenig> obf213, well write speed would have nothing to do with download speed
[06:53] <hexstar> FAt is a horrible FS, avoid it at all costs
[06:53] <dormedas> kayef: umm is it a mouse rotate-- but only a plane?
[06:54] <hexstar> FAT makes your computer fat :)
[06:54] <obf213> bruenig, i dunno, it just goes really slow, and is always refreshing refind peers etc. i save it on my desktop, none fo that.
[06:54] <theonlyalt> Dr_willis, -Y does seem to work better than -X in ssh. thanks! I can't connect to the vncserver. It says "Couldn't convert 'will-desktop' to host address.. any ideas?
[06:54] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, yah.
[06:54] <dfgas> hexstar, is there any most commonly used apps that support dual core
[06:54] <obf213> also, teh folder never appears on teh fat32 drive either.
[06:54] <kayef> dormedas: yes
[06:54] <hexstar> dfgas: I don't know off the top of my head
[06:54] <dfgas> hexstar, i thought one app worked in one core and another worked in another
[06:54] <DDG008> how do i boot to the live cd
[06:54] <ze1230> callin it a night.  Thanks for all your help folks.  I think that, although the Linux learning curve is steep, it's very worth it.
[06:54] <bruenig> obf213, check in preferences for the ability to move a file after download
[06:54] <DDG008> what do i have to push on the rest
[06:54] <dormedas> kayef: then you just need to add more desktop environments in the General settings (i think thats where it is)
[06:54] <bruenig> obf213, I don't see deluge being smart enough, if there were some write problem, to dial down the speed
[06:54] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  use the ip of the server. or edit your /etc/hosts to include the ip/servername
[06:55] <kayef> dormedas: i have set it to 4 workspace but its still the same
[06:55] <dormedas> kayef: desktop environments :P more virtual desktops!
[06:55] <dfgas> hexstar, cause friend tell me like when you run virus scan or burning a dvd that you notice big time with thats going on
[06:55] <obf213> bruenig, well i doesnt make te torrent file
[06:55] <hexstar> dfgas: not necessarily, I believe linux does do that though. What I meant is that a app can speed itself up by having multiple threads which are then split between the cores by the os making the app faster as it can do calculations in parallel
[06:55] <Dr_willis> theonlyalt,  also be sure you dont accidently start up a dozen vncservers :)
[06:55] <chiefinnovator> What's the best way to run Windows in a virtual machine?
[06:55] <obf213> liek when i say save on hd5, it says ok, and it starts downloading the torrent, albeit slow.
[06:55] <qwertz> hi again...
[06:55] <obf213> but i cant find the file on hda.
[06:55] <dormedas> kayef: hit close and restart perhaps? (compiz --replace in the terminal)
[06:55] <dfgas> hexstar, ahh, ok
[06:55] <Dr_willis> chiefinnovator,  install virtual machine, install windows, run it. :)
[06:55] <DDG008> ?
[06:55] <bruenig> obf213, use the move after completion option
[06:55] <dfgas> hexstar, started to scare me for a minute
[06:55] <obf213> is not hidden or anythingits just not there. and i search for it nothign shows up
[06:55] <Dr_willis> chiefinnovator,  which version of windows, and what virtial machine ya want to use?
[06:56] <hexstar> dfgas: hehe
[06:56] <dormedas> kayef: this is definitely odd if this doesnt work :P
[06:56] <theonlyalt> Dr_willis, ...yeah.. about that, i've accidentally started 4 already.. How do I end the others?
[06:56] <chiefinnovator> I'm on dapper and it seems like nothing will work.  I tried vmware player and it breaks, I tried virtual box and it's acting flakey.   I have created a data DVD in Ubuntu, but when I open it on a Windows PC, all the file names are shortened. Is there a way to prevent that?
[06:56] <Dr_willis> I find ktorrent to be very good for my needs.
[06:56] <hexstar> oops
[06:56] <dfgas> hexstar, i am getting a pentium d 920 from a friend and i have read that they are pretty overclockable, i just want to do from 2.8 to 3.0 or 3.2
[06:56] <chiefinnovator> #windows
[06:56] <hexstar> !windows | chiefinnovator
[06:56] <dormedas> kayef: ok lol, you're welcome i suppose
[06:56] <ubotu> chiefinnovator: For help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows or your nearest mental health institute. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and !equivalents
[06:56] <bruenig> obf213, it would also help to disable compact allocation assuming it is a disk problem which still seems odd to me
[06:57] <dfgas> hexstar, i hear that if you used phase cooling you can get 5ghz out of it, see it online
[06:57] <dormedas> kayef: but i thought that was defaulted :P oh well
[06:57] <obf213> bruenig how would i do that
[06:57] <hexstar> dfgas: I don't really do overclocking (too risky) so I wouldn't know
[06:57] <bruenig> obf213, deluge preferences
[06:57] <Ryo> Has anyone here installed steam with wine?  I need some help on the "26% bug".  None of the advice I've read on the wine guides has worked.
[06:57] <bruenig> did you even look in there?
[06:57] <obf213> yeah
[06:57] <kayef> dormedas: the default horizontal virtual size was 2.....i set it to 4 and its working now
[06:57] <dfgas> hexstar, i am not going up to far  :D
[06:57] <bruenig> enable utorrent pex and all the other things too since you don't appear to have ever seen the preferences dialog
[06:58] <hexstar> that's good dfgas :)
[06:58] <dormedas> kayef: ohh, I remember :P
[06:58] <hexstar> don't want the processor to melt :D
[06:58] <hexstar> !ping
[06:58] <ubotu> pong
[06:58] <Ryo> Anyone here familiar with the Wine Steam install?
[06:58] <DDG008> what do i have to do to boot to the live cd
[06:58] <kayef> dormedas: do u have any idea why my display looks slightly blurry......not as sharp as windows, its a fresh install of ubuntu 7.04 btw
[06:59] <dormedas> kayef: was it blurry after installing compiz fusion?
[06:59] <obf213> bruenig, it was never enabled. i idunno. thanks anyways
[06:59] <hexstar> DDG008, go here: http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,1785998,00.asp and change cd to top
[06:59] <kayef> dormedas: nop....its blurry from the start
[06:59] <Ryo> Vsynch problem.
[06:59] <dormedas> kayef: i wouldn't know sorry :P
[06:59] <Ryo> change your synch in screen resolution.
[07:00] <Ryo> that should fix the blurryness.
[07:00] <Ryo> It's called "Refresh Rate" on there.
[07:00] <dormedas> omg, I love this channel for all it's awesome amazing-ness at helping w/ ubuntu
[07:01] <hexstar> :)
[07:01] <kayef> dormedas: no prob....maybe i'll jus look around in the forums for a solution
[07:01] <hexstar> or google ;) :)
[07:01] <dfgas> would i be better of running my dual core at 64bit or don't it matter?
[07:01] <Ryo> I just gave you a solution for the blurryness...
[07:01] <hexstar> dfgas: x86 is better, things get broken on x64
[07:01] <dfgas> k
[07:01] <dawn`chorus> Wilo, u did it?
[07:02] <dormedas> kayef: did you see Ryo? he gave you the solution
[07:02] <Ryo> kayef:  Here's my solution.  Try changing refresh rate.
[07:02] <hexstar> all it takes is seeing some poor soul trying to install cpanel on a x64 distro install :D
[07:02] <kayef> Ryo: sorry i missed that
[07:02] <hexstar> the monitor could be crap...
[07:03] <Ryo> kayef:  That's cool, It's partly my fault for not putting your name.
[07:03] <kayef> Ryo: so where do i change the refresh rate?
[07:03] <hexstar> !vsync
[07:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vsync - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:03] <Ryo> kayef:  System-> Preferences -> Screen Resolution.  Play around with it.
[07:04] <kayef> Ryo: ok....will try it out, thanks

[07:06] <kayef> dormedas: it keeps shutting itself down everytime i click on a media file
[07:07] <zerokill88> ive asked this before, but i didnt get an answer. i was wondering how do you get a shell to run right on top of your desktop and not inside a terminal window? here is what i mean    http://www.jonmasters.org/pics/screenshots/gnome2-2-ppc-screenshot.png
[07:08] <Dormeda2> muahaha
[07:08] <hexstar> zerokill88: I'd be interested to know that as well
[07:08] <Davy_Jones> zerokill88: are you sure this is a terminal on the desktop?
[07:08] <hexstar> look at the ss Davy_Jones
[07:08] <charlie_> in breezy?
[07:08] <Davy_Jones> he can easily stick that picture on top of the other
[07:08] <zerokill88> Davy_jones yes ive seen it elsewhere also
[07:09] <rockets> Where is the trash folder located?
[07:09] <Dormeda2> MajorPayne: just in case you ever see this, I have the full install running on sda1 (1!!) with 32 GB of free space :D:D:D:D
[07:09] <rockets> for my user
[07:09] <hexstar> charlie_: might have to compile it
[07:09] <palintheus> There is a thread with a how to, searching now
[07:09] <hexstar> palintheus: please link :)
[07:09] <charlie_> trying to figure out where to get it?
[07:09] <rockets> never mind
[07:09] <bruenig> zerokill88, those look like windows without borders, you can get that just killall metacity
[07:10] <hexstar> charlie_: yeah sec
[07:10] <charlie_> thanx
[07:10] <zerokill88> bruenig what do you mean killall metacity. in a terminal?
[07:10] <bruenig> zerokill88, yes
[07:10] <Dormeda2> killall metacity?
[07:10] <Dormeda2> why not metacity --replace ?
[07:11] <zerokill88> bruenig ok
[07:11] <Jamesinator> When I log out through the "Quit" button in GNOME, all my applications close so that I'm only seeing my desktop, and Ubuntu sits there endlessly showing my desktop, but never actually logging me out.

[07:11] <palintheus> I've used it and got it to work on my old dell desktop
[07:11] <bruenig> zerokill88, are you using another window manager?
[07:12] <hexstar> charlie_: I can't find a binary other then that one for ubuntu, you may have to compile it
[07:12] <zerokill88> bruenig gnome, and i tried gnome killall
[07:12] <bruenig> zerokill88, gnome is not a window manager
[07:12] <hexstar> but first charlie_, does in terminal sudo apt-cache search libqt3-mt return anything?
[07:12] <zerokill88> bruenig um i think gtk
[07:12] <bruenig> zerokill88, gtk is not a window manager
[07:12] <charlie_> ill try

[07:26] <charlie_>  Package libqt3-mt is not installed.
[07:26] <zerokill88> davy_jones oh ok kool thanks again

[07:27] <noodles12> why does system>preferences>themes menu doesnt' show all the themes in the /usr/share/themes and /home/bob/.theme folders?

[07:27] <hexstar> wilo: np :)
[07:28] <coffee> ahh cool thanks guys
[07:28] <bruenig> noodles12, is it supposed to show ~/.theme?
[07:28] <hexstar> coffee: np :)
[07:28] <Sila1> can anyone help me with wine and why its not working/installing
[07:28] <charlie_> anyone else know how to get package  libqt3-mt
[07:28] <bruenig> !find libqt3-mt
[07:28] <ubotu> Found: libqt3-mt, libqt3-mt-dev, libqt3-mt-mysql, libqt3-mt-odbc, libqt3-mt-psql (and 1 others)
[07:28] <Sila1> !wine
[07:28] <bruenig> charlie_, sudo apt-get install libqt3-mt
[07:28] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:29] <kkathman> How do I get clicked links to open in Firefox and not konqueror?
[07:29] <bruenig> Sila1, you might wish to explain your problem
[07:29] <Sila1> the wine command isnt working
[07:29] <noodles12> bruenig: i don't know. but it doesnt' show the /usr/share/themes either. I dragged the new theme from ~/.theme in that menu and it added it and added another folder in that menu w/ the same thing.
[07:29] <bruenig> kkathman, sudo update-alternatives -config x-www-browser
[07:29] <kkathman> The gnome -browser is set to firefox :(
[07:29] <bruenig> noodles12, are you sure the themes are metacity
[07:29] <kkathman> thankx bruenig  :)
[07:29] <MajorPayne> !doesn't work | Sila1
[07:29] <ubotu> Sila1: 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.
[07:29] <hexstar> kkathman: http://www.techzonez.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-14660.html
[07:29] <chrisLAbeard> what are some of the main things to think about when ubuntu freezes on startup of install
[07:29] <Sila1> bruenig: sudo apt-get install wine wouldn't work either
[07:29] <charlie_> got  Package libqt3-mt has no installation candidate
[07:30] <bruenig> Sila1, what happens when you do sudo apt-get install wine (stop saying doesn't work, that does not help)
[07:31] <Sila1> bruenig: it says the package is not available
[07:31] <bruenig> Sila1, are you on 64 bit?
[07:31] <Sila1> bruenig i believe so
[07:31] <bruenig> Sila1, it is not available for 64 bit
[07:32] <bruenig> Sila1, I recommend installing 32 bit, there is no real reason to use 64 bit
[07:32] <Sila1> bruenig: i never had any problems with wine until i installed ubuntu again
[07:32] <riotkittie> sweet. i actually got a feisty disc to burn. and work.
[07:32] <Nullz00r> How do i install beryl
[07:32] <Sila1> bruenig: how do i install a 32 bit?
[07:32] <noodles12> bruenig: yea. When i just drag the folder to the theme menu and add them and save them. they show up in that ~/.theme folder. and they work. I was just wondering why all the ones in that folder dont' just automatically show up? and why doesn't the themes that were already in /usr/share/themes didn't show up? ( i didn't add those, they were already there?)
[07:32] <bruenig> Sila1, you must have installed the 64 bit version this time and the other times installed 32 bit
[07:32] <hexstar> !beryl | Nullz00r
[07:32] <ubotu> Nullz00r: beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:32] <bruenig> Sila1, go get the ubuntu 32 bit desktop iso and reinstall
[07:33] <Sila1> bruenig: willdo
[07:33] <Sila1> bruenig: thanks
[07:33] <bruenig> noodles12, they should, xfce has a similar setup and it works that way, did you extract it and make sure it was good, you didn't just move tarballs over did you?
[07:33] <Harrison> Can someone in here help me with getopts?

[07:34] <riotkittie> ehh. can the partition editor in the live cd install nuke extended parts?
[07:34] <charlie_> been trying to burn feisty for days
[07:34] <hexstar> riotkittle, yes gparted can
[07:34] <riotkittie> charlie_: keep the faith. if i can do it, you can do it :P
[07:34] <Harrison> Okay: getopts doesn't seem to want to work right for me. Can someone look at my code and tell me what I'm doing wrong?

[07:35] <hexstar> lol
[07:35] <blitz-red> hi
[07:35] <noodles12> bruenig: yea i extracted them. I found out the ones in the /usr/share/themes are just the different choices you can customize. they aren't actual themes. And i guess you just have to add the theme to the menu and not just the ~/.themes folder. thanks for the help =). i just gotta figure out how to change the taskbar now
[07:35] <blitz-red> i need some help

[07:36] <SpeakerMania> How can I un-zip a tar ball through the command line?
[07:36] <Harrison> Okay: getopts doesn't seem to want to work right for me. Can someone look at my code and tell me what I'm doing wrong? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32197/
[07:36] <riotkittie> should my extended partition show up on the 'prepare partition' screen?
[07:36] <astro76> SpeakerMania, tar xzvf file.tar.gz
[07:36] <MajorPayne> SpeakerMania: If it's just a tar (.tar) use tar xvf something.tar
[07:36] <hexstar> Harrison: I would, not really up to snuff on scripting though
[07:37] <riotkittie> err. rather, will it show up once i nuke all my logicals?
[07:37] <blitz-red> i'm trying to modify my pkg-config in usr/bin but u have to be root to do it, i know how to sudo in terminal, but i dont know the command that would allow me to edit the program
[07:37] <riotkittie> 'delete', if you prefer
[07:37] <bex> MajorPayne: do you get paid to help people in here?
[07:37] <riotkittie> i would have burned gparted but  i only had one disc :\
[07:37] <hexstar> blitz-red: nano
[07:37] <blitz-red> thanks
[07:37] <SpeakerMania> astro76, MajorPayne: Thanks. Now, can I specify the directory in which to un-zip? For example, if I save the tar ball to ~/ then how can I un-pack it to ~/Desktop/ ?
[07:37] <hexstar> blitz-red: np :)
[07:37] <Harrison> blitz-red: try "gksudo gedit /usr/bin/pkg-config"
[07:37] <MajorPayne> bex: Nope.  But I wouln't want to either.  Sometimes my help sucks.
[07:37] <charlie_> anyone kow if there is a way to force breezy to burn me a copy of feisty? it won't recognize the size of the disc except in minutes
[07:38] <charlie_> will burn any music
[07:38] <riotkittie> charlie_: what are you burning with?
[07:38] <MajorPayne> charlie_: All you do is right click on the ISO and select "burn to disk".
[07:38] <hayden_22_22> i am trying to build a debian package of gimp2.3.19, but when i run   dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot i get found eof where expected more change data or trailer at /usr/lib/dpkg/parsechangelog/debian line 156, <STDIN> line 6
[07:38] <hexstar> charlie_: The cd recogniztion is done by the cdrom drive's firmware, if the cd isn't being seen then you likely have a brand of cd-r that is not compatible with your drive
[07:38] <Davy_Jones> when i turn beryl on and a new window pops up, it doesn't get the focus and gets loaded behind the other windows.. how do i fix this?
[07:38] <Tremitos> that's a secret
[07:39] <charlie_> that's what i did, always says insert disc with xmb free
[07:39] <Harrison> Okay: getopts doesn't seem to want to work right for me. Can someone look at my code and tell me what I'm doing wrong? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32197/
[07:39] <charlie_> even if trying to burn 9 mb on 700mb cd
[07:39] <SpeakerMania> astro76, MajorPayne: Thanks. Now, can I specify the directory in which to un-zip? For example, if I save the tar ball to ~/ then how can I un-pack it to ~/Desktop/ ?
[07:39] <hexstar> charlie_: have you tried another drive?
[07:39] <hexstar> or better yet, different brand media?
[07:40] <riotkittie> live disc's gparted still  not seeing my extended partition. lists my 2 primaries, and my 3 logicals. hmm.
[07:40] <SpeakerMania> astro76, MajorPayne: Thanks. Now, can I specify the directory in which to un-zip? For example, if I save the tar ball to ~/ then how can I un-pack it to ~/Desktop/ ?
[07:40] <charlie_> won't recognize size on either drive
[07:40] <MajorPayne> SpeakerMania: mv tarball.tar Desktop;cd Desktop;tar xvf tarball.tar
[07:40] <astro76> blitz-red, pkg-config is a program, what do you mean edit it?
[07:40] <charlie_> unless its music, in miute
[07:40] <astro76> SpeakerMania, I don't believe so, you can move the tarball to where you want to extract it
[07:40] <MajorPayne> SpeakerMania: There may be an option to select the directory, not sure.  man tar will tell you.
[07:40] <charlie_> minutes
[07:40] <riotkittie> and when i delete the logicals, it shows the two primaries. and free space.  i am paranoid, having just lost a 500gb HD :|
[07:40] <bruenig> MajorPayne, -C dir
[07:40] <SpeakerMania> aastro76, MajorPayne: Thanks for the help. :)
[07:41] <astro76> nice
[07:41] <Harrison> Okay: getopts doesn't seem to want to work right for me. Can someone look at my code and tell me what I'm doing wrong? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32197/

[07:51] <blitz-red> alright so here is my problem, the new Glib isnt recognized here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32199/plain/
[07:51] <bruenig> blitz-red, do you have the -dev package installed
[07:51] <Harrison> bruenig: I don't see how that puts them to the script that the first script is being used to start
[07:51] <blitz-red> im not sure what that is
[07:52] <blitz-red> but i had to compile the glib from source
[07:52] <Dismember> trying to compile a driver for my sunix SATA II card.. but the makefile is showing locations for files i cant find in fiesty :S

[07:53] <astro76> ubu, feisty
[07:53] <bruenig> Harrison, I should have just edited yours, it would have been easier anyways
[07:53] <hexstar> blitz-red: what's wrong with the included binary of glib?
[07:53] <Harrison> bruenig: No, I will do it.
[07:53] <peeps_work> Dismember, you prob need the kernel headers
[07:53] <Dismember> ok.. and i get them where?
[07:54] <blitz-red> included binary?
[07:54] <hexstar> !find glib

[07:54] <peeps_work> Dismember, from repositories, "uname -a", to find out exactly the kernel version, then search for those headers
[07:54] <blitz-red> apparently it was outdated

[07:55] <Dismember> ok as su?
[07:55] <hexstar> sudo
[07:55] <blitz-red> the return error in the terminal was the same before i updated glib except it didnt recognize glib
[07:55] <peeps_work> Dismember, don't need that for uname
[07:55] <peeps_work> it just tells you what kernel you are running
[07:55] <Dismember> #ubuntu
[07:55] <peeps_work> then you need to find the package
[07:55] <hayden_22_22> found eof where expected more change data or trailer at /usr/lib/dpkg/parsechangelog/debian line 156, <STDIN> line 6
[07:55] <bruenig> Harrison, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32201/
[07:55] <blitz-red> it said my glib was outdated
[07:55] <Dismember> 2.6.20-16-generic
[07:55] <hexstar> peeps_work, without a option added on it doesn't give version: macminis-computer:~ hexstar$ uname
[07:55] <hexstar> Darwin
[07:56] <riotkittie> Ok. Let's talk swap. On this machine, I've got a gig of RAM. On my laptop (256mb) i operate by the swap = 2x RAM rule, but something tells me that'd be silly here. so. how much? :P
[07:56] <hayden_22_22> that error show up when i try to build a deb of gimp
[07:56] <Harrison> bruenig: I finished mine right before you did that. They look exactly the same. :D
[07:56] <bruenig> Harrison, that is assuming I understand what you are doing, you call the script with "script bits $VALUE width $WIDTH etc. that is what I think you are doing, I may have misunderstood
[07:56] <riotkittie> FWIW, i have a whopping 6.8GB free. i can up it a little... but not much.
[07:56] <astro76> riotkittie, do you want to hibernate (suspend to disk)?
[07:56] <riotkittie> astro76: nah
[07:56] <Harrison> bruenig: Correct, but not all of the commands will be used at once.
[07:56] <peeps_work> Dismember, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic
[07:56] <bruenig> Harrison, forgot the all important '') in my paste
[07:56] <bruenig> Harrison, right, it will fit the '', and break in that case
[07:57] <Dismember> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic
[07:57] <Dismember> linux-headers-2.6.20-16-generic is already the newest version.
[07:57] <blitz-red> is my problem something that cant be fixed?
[07:57] <astro76> riotkittie, 256-512MB would be good
[07:57] <hayden_22_22> I am trying to build a .deb for the latest development release of gimp,
[07:57] <riotkittie> astro76: thanks! :)
[07:57] <bruenig> what is the point of /usr/games
[07:58] <hexstar> that's where the games go
[07:58] <peeps_work> Dismember, ok guess I was wrong, you are missing something else, you should pastebin your error
[07:58] <Dismember> include arch/$(ARCH)/Makefile
[07:58] <bruenig> why does it have its own directory, that is the stupidest thing I have ever seen
[07:58] <Harrison> bruenig: Now, how could I add commands that don't have an arguement on the end of them to that script?
[07:58] <Dismember> that is the line that is erroring
[07:58] <Dismember> translates to include /arch/i386/include

[08:01] <Jordan_U> blitz-red, What are you trying to do?
[08:01] <Harrison> bruenig: That is how I would add a command with no arguement?
[08:01] <bruenig> Harrison, can you have over 9 position parameters? maybe that is the problem
[08:01] <ntbnnt> riotkittie: that's awesome :\ ftw
[08:01] <blitz-red> trying to compile gaim voice and video support
[08:01] <bruenig> Harrison, right, it will only shift the arguments over one in that case, meaning that it will pick up on the next arg instead of skipping two
[08:01] <Dismember> anyone got any ideas?
[08:02] <Harrison> bruenig: There are at least 25 different commands for this program.
[08:02] <hayden_22_22> come one  guy i really need
[08:02] <Harrison> bruenig: So it seems that shift can't handle that many?
[08:02] <hayden_22_22> help
[08:02] <Davy_Jones> is there a plugin that allows xmms to play midi files?
[08:02] <blitz-red> i run configure
[08:02] <blitz-red> and get this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32199/plain/ terminal error
[08:03] <bruenig> Harrison, you can't feed the thing more than 9 parameters iirc
[08:03] <Lustblade1> hi room
[08:03] <Harrison> bruenig: sonofabitch
[08:04] <bruenig> Harrison, like $10 does not work
[08:04] <palintheus> I'm getting a laptop with an 80g hard drive with Ubuntu pre-installed, I want to repartition it with this guide http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome to get a separate /home I was wondering what size I should set / as?
[08:04] <Harrison> bruenig: I don't see a $10 anywhere in the code.
[08:05] <Dismember> ok here is the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32203/
[08:05] <bruenig> Harrison, nevermind you can, you just have to do ${10}, it should work, I just shifted a bunch of arguments
[08:05] <Dismember> i think
[08:05] <astro76> palintheus, 8-10GB is about all you'll need typically, add a little more if you want
[08:05] <Harrison> bruenig: I don't see a $10/${10} anywhere in the code.
[08:05] <Jordan_U_> blitz-red, Have you done "apt-get build-dep gaim" ? That won't get dependencies for features not included in the Ubuntu package but should be a good start
[08:06] <blitz-red> i'll try it now
[08:06] <palintheus> astro76, thanks
[08:07] <bruenig> Harrison, that was just me musing don't worry about it
[08:07] <Harrison> bruenig: So how do I get it to send all the commands?
[08:07] <decoy> hey guys, i know my computer can get a way better resolution. but right now its set at 1024x768. im used to 1440x900. i have nvidia geforce 6100 graphics card.
[08:08] <astro76> decoy, can you change it in system>prefs>screen resolution ?
[08:08] <bruenig> Harrison, it looks good as it is, maybe #bash will know, there is probably some syntax error or something stupid like that
[08:08] <Jordan_U_> decoy, Have you tried restricted manager?
[08:09] <aiod> a
[08:09] <yel> haha
[08:09] <Dismember> anyone got any ideas to help me out?
[08:09] <alivedata> Dismember: what is ur prob
[08:09] <Dismember> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/32203/
[08:10] <Dismember> i am trying to compile a driver for an INITIO SATAII card
[08:10] <blitz-red> its installing now, and i noticed its installing glib 2.0 so it should solve my problem
[08:10] <decoy> Jordan_U_: how do i get restricted manager? i know thats what i need...
[08:10] <gin> i have an ATI video card, so i've installed drivers with envy but not works my xservers it broken each time that i try install drivers
[08:11] <astro76> decoy, system>admin>restricted manager
[08:11] <alivedata> Dismember: so where did you get the source?
[08:11] <syntaxx> im using cups and samba. and i have a little problem in printer class status in windows when i paused the class it shows the printer status not the printer class status anyone have an idea how to fix that?
[08:11] <Dismember> sunix website
[08:11] <gin> somebody can help me about  it ?
[08:12] <astro76> !envy | gin
[08:12] <ubotu> gin: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[08:12] <Dismember> its a sunix card
[08:12] <blitz-red> well i think i screwed myself over installing glib 2.12.12
[08:13] <alivedata> Dismember: k, you got the source from sunux?
[08:13] <ThanatosDrive> How do I mount an CD image?
[08:13] <Dismember> yeah
[08:13] <Dismember> want to see the source?
[08:13] <astro76> !iso | ThanatosDrive
[08:13] <ubotu> ThanatosDrive: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[08:14] <alivedata> Dismember: no...i am assuming that you have compiled before?
[08:14] <Dismember> not for years
[08:14] <ThanatosDrive> Thanks astro76!
[08:14] <ThanatosDrive> What is mountpoint?
[08:14] <decoy> allright. the restricted manager is in use. but it still isnt what i needed
[08:14] <gerro> anyone know of firefox plugin or app to use so can download video.tinypic.com?
[08:15] <blitz-red> now the pastebin is giving me bull
[08:15] <blitz-red> it thinks i am spamming
[08:15] <riotkittie> can i ask another sorta-off-topic(but-relevant-to-my-install) question?
[08:15] <astro76> ThanatosDrive, an empty directory that you create, typically either in /media or in your ~/ (home directory)
[08:15] <gerro> blitz-red: umm pastebin.ubuntu.com?
[08:15] <Dismember> i can remember a bit of programming.. i found the lines that are wrong.. but cant find the right dir's to replace in the makefile
[08:15] <ThanatosDrive> astro76: So I need to create it first?
[08:15] <astro76> yes
[08:15] <alivedata> ubotu: sudo mount -o loop the.iso /home/theiso
[08:16] <decoy> anyone know anything else i can do?
[08:16] <gin> astro76, thats so true, but when i try install drivers with resticted manager, the application not works and it appear a msg with: The hardware dont need resticted drivers.
[08:16] <gin> astro76,  whats wrong is there ?
[08:16] <Dismember> alivedata: u still around?
[08:17] <Davy_Jones> has anyone tried Pixel?
[08:17] <alivedata> Dismember: yup
[08:17] <blitz-red> nevermind, i'll try to deal with this tommorrow
[08:17] <blitz-red> later
[08:17] <ThanatosDrive> Wait, but I'm in home, and I can't create a folder.
[08:17] <Dismember> they gave an instruction readme
[08:17] <Dismember> i am following the instructions
[08:17] <Dismember> but the file is suited to redhat
[08:17] <Dismember> it appears
[08:17] <alivedata> Dismember: ahh
[08:17] <astro76> gin, have you seen this? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[08:18] <Dismember> fiesty has a different dir structure
[08:18] <decoy> can someone please help me get my resolution better?
[08:18] <riotkittie> i've managed to hose 3 linux installs and a win os in the span of uh... 12 hours.  i'm starting to think i should steer clear of technology :o
[08:18] <Dismember> anyone know where the include dir is?
[08:18] <alivedata> Dismember: have you run configure
[08:19] <Dismember> alivedata: i assume not
[08:19] <alivedata> Dismember : maybe that is y no make?
[08:19] <bulmer> Dismember: the /usr/include does not exist?
[08:19] <ThanatosDrive> Oh wow there's no autorun support through wine. Duh -.-
[08:19] <Dismember> alivedata: no it doesnt
[08:20] <decoy> what about like beryl or something. would that help? i've had ubuntu on this computer once before, and i had it perfect, great machine. but what about beryl?
[08:20] <ThanatosDrive> How do I change my sound to 16-bit?
[08:20] <hachi> I'm trying to build an ubuntu live CD that has an app built right onto it for people to test. There isn't any information about doing this task already available by chance, is there?
[08:20] <alivedata> Dismember : no it doesnt what?
[08:20] <Dismember> decoy: i'm a noob but have u run Xconfig?
[08:20] <Dismember> alivedata: no it doesnt exist
[08:20] <decoy> Dismember: nope. not yet
[08:20] <ntbnnt> riotkittie: you should only really worry when you hose 3 linux servers
[08:20] <Jordan_U__> hachi, There is, try the wiki
[08:21] <bulmer> hachi: maybe you can google for remastering ubuntu
[08:21] <hachi> Jordan_U__: okie, thanks
[08:21] <hachi> bulmer: allright, thanks
[08:21] <alivedata> Dismember : try running ./configure

[08:21] <ubotu> ClNorris: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:21] <ThanatosDrive> !sound
[08:21] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[08:22] <bullgard4> Why is there no manual page for libata?
[08:22] <ThanatosDrive> !16-bit
[08:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 16-bit - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:22] <decoy> hey Jordan_U__ do you know how i could get the better resolution im looking for? along with beryl?
[08:22] <ThanatosDrive> Anyone know how to change my sound to 16-bit?
[08:22] <ntbnnt> !16-bit
[08:22] <RyanW> when i try and zone transfer the master server reports "zone 170.17.172.in-addr.arpa/IN/internal: refresh: non-authoritative answer from master <IP_ADDRESS>#53 (source <IP_ADDRESS>#0)", can you explain what this means please.
[08:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about 16-bit - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:22] <ClNorris> Jordan_U_, I have a dell inspiron E1505 which is widescreen and the maximum resolution is 1024x768 and I want to go bigger like it was before I switched from gentoo
[08:22] <Jordan_U__> decoy, I was disconnected after I asked this before, have you tried restricted manager ?
[08:22] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Alrready tried it.
[08:23] <ntbnnt> haha
[08:23] <ntbnnt> its funny
[08:23] <peeps_work> ThanatosDrive, what is it set to now, and how can you tell?
[08:23] <Jordan_U__> ClNorris, Either use the -intel driver or simply install 915resolution
[08:23] <decoy> Jordan_U__: yeah. i just installed it. it didnt seem to do much
[08:23] <ClNorris> Jordan_U_, huh?
[08:23] <Dismember> alivedata: bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[08:23] <astro76> !resolution | ClNorris
[08:23] <ubotu> ClNorris: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:24] <ThanatosDrive> peeps_work: Well I can tell because my Homeworld CD says, 'Why not try changing your sound to 16-bit, then installing?' And then it exits.
[08:24] <peeps_work> Dismember, did you do it in the main directory of the program you are compiling?
[08:24] <Dismember> peeps_work: /INITIO is the dir the source is in
[08:24] <alivedata> Dismember : you unpacked the source, cd src
[08:25] <Jordan_U__> decoy, Try System -> Preferences -> Desktop Effects for basic compiz effects
[08:25] <ziroday> lol
[08:25] <bullgard4> ClNorris: See also 'xrandr', 'xdpyinfo', ('xresprobe')!
[08:25] <GamingX> I am not able to access the ubuntume channel???
[08:26] <syntaxx> im using cups and samba. and i have a little problem in printer class status in windows when i paused the class it shows the printer status not the printer class status anyone have an idea how to fix that?
[08:26] <Jordan_U__> GamingX, ubuntume?
[08:26] <alivedata> desktop effects really screwed up a multi monitor setup I was running, whacky
[08:26] <GamingX> Muslim Edition, similar to Christian edition....
[08:27] <dstaley> Wide UXGA is 1920x1200, right?
[08:27] <Dismember> alivedata: peeps_work: http://www.sunix.com.tw/it/en/down/driver/Linux_Driver.pdf is the driver location with the readme
[08:27] <sx66> what is better, gnome, kde, or xfce as in resource management?
[08:27] <Dismember> see what u can make of it
[08:27] <adromeda> I recently added gaim and Rhythmbox to my start up, is there anyway to make them start-up minimized?
[08:27] <adromeda> (or in the taskbar)
[08:28] <Jordan_U__> sx66, What do you mean by resource management ?
[08:28] <dstaley> sx66: I reccomend XFCE
[08:28] <Dismember> fiesty has a driver for the card inbuilt.. but when i have tried to format a 400Gb WD drive it hangs on inode 1050
[08:28] <sx66> k
[08:29] <peeps_work> dunno, gotta sleep
[08:29] <Dismember> installed the drive on a machine with an ATI SATA onboard running fiesty formats no probs
[08:29] <Dismember> so i am assuming that the driver has a problem with drives bigger than 170Gb
[08:29] <foug> i'm trying to uninstall google earth, sudo apt-get remove Google Earth won't uninstall it
[08:30] <adromeda> I recently added gaim and Rhythmbox to my start up, is there anyway to make them start-up minimized? (or in the taskbar)
[08:30] <alivedata> Dismember : nothing on pdf
[08:30] <Jordan_U> foug, Apt/dpkg can only remove packages installed through dpkg
[08:30] <Dismember> alivedata: IM me
[08:30] <foug> Jordan_U: o i see, so i can't apt-get remove that which i've apt-get installed?
[08:30] <Dismember> i'll give u my MSN and send u the file
[08:30] <foug> Jordan_U: i can only* not i can't
[08:30] <alivedata> Dismember : is it a tarball
[08:31] <Diilbert> totem movie player has the Play Disc 'DVD-ROM disc' grayed out even though there is a DVD in the drive.  Is it possibly looking in the wrong spot for a DVD?  Where do set this since I do not see anything in prefs?
[08:31] <Jordan_U> foug, That and .deb files
[08:31] <Dismember> no
[08:31] <Dismember> its a ZIP
[08:31] <foug> Jordan_U: i see, so how would i uninstall a .bin?
[08:31] <alivedata> Dismember : what is the file type
[08:31] <Jordan_U> foug, Find the uninstaller?
[08:31] <alivedata> Dismember : and what is the file list inside?
[08:31] <foug> Jordan_U: ok i tried to uninstall Rythmbox Music Player, and the command still didn't work. How do i find out what the package is called?
[08:32] <GamingX> I have a Canon Lide 20 scanner, How do I install it?
[08:32] <Dismember> alivedata: 1622.config  drivers  include  Makefile  readme of 1622 for linux 2.4.txt
[08:32] <Jordan_U> foug, How did you install rythmbox and how did you try to remove it?
[08:32] <foug> Jordan_U: rhythmbox came with ubuntu
[08:33] <ntbnnt> oh well, my LUG disbanded
[08:33] <Dismember> alivedata: http://www.sunix.com.tw/it/en/DRIVER.php?cate=3&classnumber=2&usid2=125&usid1=34&Psid=447#top try there
[08:33] <foug> Jordan_U: i want to uninstall a few things that come with ubuntu, but not sure how :)
[08:33] <ThanatosDrive> How can I change my sound to 16-bit stereo?
[08:34] <Jordan_U> foug, You should be able to just "sudo apt-get remove rhythmbox"
[08:34] <alivedata> Dismember : yeh, send them an e - make sure you have all of the srcs, and/or the right package...gotta go - gd luck
[08:34] <alivedata> #cisco
[08:34] <foug> Jordan_U: sweet, that worked. So for say, Totem Movie Player, sudo apt-get remove totem?
[08:34] <Dismember> alivedata: ta for trying
[08:35] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: read about ALSA, it may not fully support 16-bit unless you have certain audio cards and even then sometimes that 16-bit audio is dependant upon propreitory utilities by your cards vendor
[08:35] <bullgard4> What is the equivalent 'dpkg -S' command in Synaptic?
[08:35] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Okay. Googling now. I hope I can get 16-bit though, as anyone who has played it can attest, Homeworld is an amazing game.
[08:35] <Davy_Jones> bullgard4: what does that command do?
[08:35] <Jordan_U> foug, That is generally how it works, sometimes the package is different than the program name, if so you can find the package with synaptic or "apt-cache search foo"
[08:35] <foug> Jordan_U: what's the foo mean?
[08:36] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: theres not a default swtich to 16-biut it reqires special hardware support and interaction with your kernel
[08:36] <GamingX> I cannot use my scanner using Ubuntu, can someone help me?
[08:36] <Jordan_U> foug, It is a slang term for "whatever"
[08:37] <foug> Jordan_U: o duh
[08:37] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: there could be a custom kernel configuration, but i doubt ubuntu will like it very much that is atune to audio mixers and developers
[08:37] <foug> Jordan_U: thanks dude
[08:37] <adromeda> I recently added gaim and Rhythmbox to my start up, is there anyway to make them start-up minimized? (or in the taskbar)
[08:37] <Jordan_U> foug, np
[08:38] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Well at least here's one aspect Microsoft greatly trumps Linux at.
[08:38] <jtong> i added a user to a group and change the file to permission 770 and to that group but the user is still unable to read the file?
[08:38] <ntbnnt> adromeda: this isn't windows - i just have my ubuntu desktop boot the way i had it before by saving my session everytime i reboot
[08:38] <jtong> any ideas?
[08:38] <ThanatosDrive> adromeda: Just don't turn off your PC.
[08:39] <xukun> hi all, I get this error every time I start/reboot the system "Fsck died with exit status 8"  I pasted the logs from /var/log/fsck/ceckfs.  Anybody know how to fix this I sure do not
[08:39] <adromeda> lol, I want to play Oblivion sometimes though... (windows partition) lol,
[08:39] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: there must be some support because mac os eats high audio and video equipment for breakfast, but even then, its propreitory
[08:39] <adromeda> how do I save my session?
[08:39] <pawan> hi
[08:40] <austinhawk> is it possible to use gaim with a yahoo account to IM someone with a hotmail account?
[08:40] <pawan> any good webcam software for ubuntu
[08:40] <pawan> !hi
[08:40] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:40] <ntbnnt> adromeda: go to System > Prefs > Sessions
[08:40] <Flannel> pawan: What are you trying to do with said webcam?
[08:40] <adromeda> you would have 2 create a msn hotmail account
[08:40] <GamingX> I installed ubuntume, how do I rollback changes?
[08:40] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Well I read up on ALSA. I'm not sure how to get it though. Would it be in apt-get or Synaptic?
[08:40] <foug> how come for uninstalling things, it's apt-GET and not apt-remove? what is get short for?
[08:40] <Jordan_U> GamingX, What changes?
[08:41] <pawan> i am just trying to test my webcam
[08:41] <Joelwork> anyone here get kismet working on the hp tx1000 laptop?
[08:41] <Jordan_U> ThanatosDrive, ALSA is the default sound system
[08:41] <GamingX> how do I rollback to my feisty fawn?
[08:41] <pawan> wheater it works in ubuntu or not
[08:41] <Flannel> foug: because apt-get is the name of the program.  'apt-get' on its own won't install either, you need the install as well (there are a number of other things as well)
[08:41] <orbisvicis> !alsa
[08:41] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[08:41] <pawan> camorama is not working nicely
[08:41] <Joelwork> I think its got the bcm4311 card
[08:41] <ThanatosDrive> Jordan_U: Then do you know how to change my sound to 16-bit? Will it take a lot of tweaking or what?
[08:41] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: its some pretty hardcore configuration, I not an expert, check out some sound fourms
[08:41] <Flannel> Joelwork: tx1000 works fine via ndiswrapper
[08:42] <Jordan_U> GamingX, So you want to get back to ubuntu without the me additions?
[08:42] <foug> Flannel: ahh ok, thought it just aptitude. And aptitude-get whatever command, whatever program
[08:42] <pawan> hello
[08:42] <GamingX> Jordan_U: Yes...
[08:42] <Jordan_U> Joelwork, Have you tried fwcutter?
[08:42] <Flannel> foug: aptitude and apt-get are different programs (even if they more or less do the same thing)
[08:42] <ntbnnt> pawan:  here's what i did to load the drivers for my cam
[08:42] <foug> Flannel: ahh ok, apt-get is for ubuntu specifically i take it?
[08:42] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: hardcore configuration? Ugh. I'm only so adept with Linux. Would you suggest I just dual-boot WindowsXP then?
[08:42] <ntbnnt> pawan: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=322218
[08:42] <ThanatosDrive> foug: And Debian
[08:43] <Joelwork> well its a friends lappy and he has been complaining about the wifi not being compatible very well
[08:43] <foug> ThanatosDrive: k cool thanks
[08:43] <Joelwork> its now working with ndiswrapper
[08:43] <Jordan_U> GamingX, Try "sudo apt-get autoremove ubuntume-desktop" ( that is probably not the right package name but it is going to be something like that
[08:43] <Joelwork> but cant run kismet on it
[08:43] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: only if you really needed it
[08:43] <sxanness> can someone PM me, I need help creating a custom launcher for a perl application I have
[08:43] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: do you have any sound at all
[08:43] <Flannel> foug: nope, it's just one of the many debian package managers
[08:44] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: 16-bit could also depend upon application support (i.e. a game or video player)
[08:44] <Joelwork> does fwcutter work with the tx1000?
[08:44] <Jordan_U> Joelwork, I am not sure if kismet works with NDISwrapper
[08:44] <foug> Flannel: got'cha
[08:44] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: I have sound, yeah. But I have problems with it. Like, Java applications produce a really fuzzy sound, and flash apps produce sound that's really really...electronic sounding, as if it went through a vocoder.
[08:44] <Jordan_U> Joelwork, If that is the  bcm4311 chipset then yes
[08:44] <ntbnnt> kismet does not
[08:45] <Jordan_U> Joelwork, I recommend removing ndiswrapper and using the native bcm43xx drivers
[08:45] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Everything else (RhythmBox, VLC, most programs) produce perfect-quality audio though. Oh yeah, and no MIDI support apparently, which is a giant bummer, because I wanted to compose.
[08:45] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: linux-sound.org
[08:45] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: i would see there
[08:45] <austinhawk> is it possible to remove desktop icons for mounted drives?
[08:46] <decoy> hello agaon
[08:46] <Jordan_U> ThanatosDrive, What do you mean by no midi support? It does not support some midi hardware you have?
[08:46] <Flannel> austinhawk: there's a gconf setting for it I believe
[08:46] <decoy> i still cant get my resolution fixed!
[08:46] <Joelwork> Jordan_U: oh ok , and my mistake its the **bcm4310*
[08:46] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: theres some limited info on java sound, have you installed java via synaptic
[08:46] <ubuntu__> Hi
[08:46] <ubuntu__> I need some help installing Ubuntu
[08:46] <Flannel> !ask | ubuntu__
[08:46] <ubuntu__> I've made it to the "prepare disk space' (partition section) of the install process.
[08:46] <unagi> anyone know why .mov wont play in firefox?
[08:47] <ubuntu__> Flannel I prefer real person help if possible.
[08:47] <ubotu> ubuntu__: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:47] <Jordan_U> unagi, right click and try playing it in totem
[08:47] <riotkittie> phew. that could have been ugly.
[08:47] <sxanness> For some reason the terminal opens and then crashes if I try to access this application with my customer launcher... however, I can very easily open up a terminal window and access the application with the same command.
[08:47] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: go to Apps > Add/Remove > Select 'Show all' at the top > search "restricted" > check the Ubuntu Restricted Apps > Apply > Voila
[08:47] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: No MIDI support as in, when I load up BEAST and try to play, it gives me an error saying that no MIDI output device is available. And yes, I got Java via Synaptic
[08:47] <MikeRotch> what's the deal ubuntu__
[08:47] <unagi> i dont have that option in the menu
[08:47] <adromeda> gnu chess beat me in 20 turns (in total) :(
[08:47] <unagi> im trying to stream it
[08:48] <ubuntu__> How do I resize the partition to use 15GB of the free space on the drive? I have WindowsXP-MCE installed. And I need to partition the remaining 30GB. 30GB remaining for windows. 15GB to Ubuntu. 15GB to Windows.
[08:48] <Jordan_U> unagi, That will stream it
[08:48] <ubuntu__> However I slide the bar thing all the way to the left and it wants 75MB. guided thing.
[08:48] <unagi> i dont have an option to open it in mplayer
[08:48] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: i dunno, sorry, it could just be a bug with the driver that was loaded for your card
[08:48] <Jordan_U> unagi, Are you using the totem firefox plugin?
[08:48] <kahrytan> ubuntu__: You got tv card?
[08:48] <MikeRotch> ubuntu__
[08:48] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Perhaps. I AM using a fairly outdated card.
[08:48] <MikeRotch> you want to look below the bar
[08:48] <unagi> whatever the default is
[08:48] <MikeRotch> at the maual
[08:48] <Jordan_U> unagi, Not in mplayer in totem
[08:48] <MikeRotch> manuL*
[08:48] <thx1137> where may I find the list of cards supported by both the nvidia-glx-new & nvidia-glx?
[08:48] <ubuntu__> No. I dont have a TV card.
[08:48] <MikeRotch> manual* sorry been dirnkin
[08:49] <ubuntu__> here let me make this easier
[08:49] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: then its likely there isn't too much dev on it
[08:49] <MikeRotch> i know what you are saying
[08:49] <Flannel> ubuntu__: You can only join adjacent drive spaces (without using something like LVM),
[08:49] <MikeRotch> about partition sizes
[08:49] <adromeda> ubuntu__: I would recommend getting Wubi
[08:49] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Dang.
[08:49] <ThanatosDrive> !dual-boot
[08:49] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[08:49] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: common stuff and new stuff get the most support
[08:49] <unagi> is totem not the same?
[08:49] <Dustin> Ok so how do I install Ubuntu on 15GB of space on the same drive as windows without overriting?
[08:49] <adromeda> just google it, it's what I'm using, and it's great
[08:49] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Short on money and not in a position to get it. Oh well. Once I hit college, I'll have more options.
[08:49] <MikeRotch> Dustin, all you need to do is at that screen where you slide the bar look down at the manual stuff
[08:49] <Jordan_U> thx1137, apt-cache show nvidi-glx / glx-new
[08:49] <adromeda> WUBI
[08:50] <MikeRotch> you will choose the last option (manual)
[08:50] <decoy> can someone please help me with the resolution. btw im running amd 64 soo....with nvidia card
[08:50] <MikeRotch> then you will choose your first disk (usually hda1)
[08:50] <ntbnnt> ThanatosDrive: ya
[08:50] <Flannel> Dustin: you'll want to shrink your windows partition, you'll probably want to defrag first
[08:50] <Tremitos> sup
[08:50] <adromeda> !I've had problems with that,! Windows partitions not booting!
[08:50] <MikeRotch> Dustin, then you will select to use 15000 or w/e
[08:50] <MikeRotch> make the root /
[08:50] <Dustin> via manual
[08:50] <Dustin> right?
[08:50] <MikeRotch> yes manual
[08:50] <Dustin> can I click "forward" without the process starting to view the next screen?
[08:50] <ThanatosDrive> ntbnnt: Thanks though! I'm out for now.
[08:51] <Dustin> Once I click manual?
 Out of personal recomendation, use Wubu, no partitioning etc., well, google it
[08:51] <Jordan_U> decoy, have you tried reconfiguring X with dpkg or with nvidia-settings?
[08:51] <Flannel> Dustin: what do you mean without the process starting?
[08:51] <Tremitos> fun
[08:51] <MikeRotch> dustin then you will choose the disk you want to do
[08:51] <MikeRotch> usually hda1
[08:51] <MikeRotch> then you will chose to make a new partition
[08:51] <adromeda> so you know, http://wubi-installer.org/
[08:52] <adromeda> I HIGHLY recommend it
[08:52] <foug> is there a quick way to copy all the addresses in my address bar? using opera
[08:52] <unagi> where do i get this firefox plugin
[08:52] <MikeRotch> Dustin http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/installing
[08:53] <Jordan_U> foug, What do you mean by all the addresses in your address bar?
[08:53] <riotkittie> yay. four hours later, i'm finally installing.
[08:53] <MikeRotch> weeee
[08:53] <riotkittie> and waiting for something else to go wrong.
[08:53] <MikeRotch> i love the ubuntu
[08:53] <foug> Jordan_U: all the sites in my address bar, there's a lot of them. i'd like to save them some how
[08:53] <riotkittie> the ubuntu loves you too.
[08:53] <harry> ragnarok
[08:53] <MikeRotch> wooo
[08:53] <MikeRotch> what the hell does ubutnu mean
[08:53] <MikeRotch> i thikn i knew once before
[08:53] <thx1137> Jordan_U: thanks, that doesn't show all the supported cards
[08:54] <MikeRotch> but not anymore i smoke pot
[08:54] <austinhawk> flannel, thanks.  found it.
[08:54] <adromeda> for firefox, I use foxymarks, I find it to work the best (for synchroizing bookmarks)
[08:54] <ntbnnt> !love
[08:54] <ubotu> Love is like racing across the frozen tundra on a snowmobile which flips over, trapping you underneath. At night, the ice-weasels come.
[08:54] <GamingX> I uninstalled Ubuntume but it was messy, and now I get all sorts of errors. How do I get back the default settings for ubuntu?
[08:54] <Flannel> adromeda: you mean saving your open tabs?  doesn't Opera do that automatically?
[08:54] <ntbnnt> yay!
[08:54] <ThanatosDrive> Well. I'm back. Not even 5 minutes gone and I have another question. How do I dual-boot WIndowsXP if I have Ubuntu installed already? All guides I see are if I have Windows installed first.
[08:54] <Gekkko> any good Sega Genesis emulators for Linux?
[08:54] <riotkittie> what the hey is ubuntume?
[08:55] <nox-Hand> When booting my PC it now states:  * Not starting GNOME Display Manager (gdm); it is not the default display manager.
[08:55] <ntbnnt> Gekkko: dude!
[08:55] <ThanatosDrive> Gekkko: http://www.pknet.com/~joe/dgen-sdl.html
[08:55] <adromeda> oh, ya, when u exit Opera, it replenishes your tabs
[08:55] <Jordan_U> thx1137, Sorry, I could have sworn it did
[08:55] <nox-Hand> How do I change it back?
[08:55] <riotkittie> ThanatosDrive: after you install xp, you'll need to pop a live cd in and recover grub
[08:55] <GamingX> riotkittie: Muslim Edition like the Christian Edition....
[08:55] <Flannel> GamingX: did you --purge all the things in ubuntume?
[08:55] <riotkittie> !grub
[08:55] <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
[08:55] <Gekkko> ThanatosDrive: that's old and obselete
[08:55] <adromeda> u can do the same in firefox though, (history > recently closed tabs)
[08:55] <Gekkko> doesn't even emulate well.
[08:55] <riotkittie> ThanatosDrive: check out the first link ubotu spat out
[08:55] <ThanatosDrive> riotkittie: Yeah but will my Ubutu partition be touched?
[08:55] <Jordan_U> foug, I don't use opera so maybe I am missing something but do you mean bookmarks? How can you have multiple addresses in your address bar?
[08:56] <riotkittie> ThanatosDrive: nope
[08:56] <GamingX> no I just uninstalled it, but now it fails to load the theme...
[08:56] <foug> Jordan_U: you know, in the drop down
[08:56] <Flannel> ThanatosDrive: windows only installs to partitions you tell it to.  You'll want to give windows a partition (pre-partitioned) beforehand, and then you'll need to reinstlal GRUB later.  but that's it
[08:56] <foug> Jordan_U: when you click the lil arrow, and it shows the list of sites you've typed in
[08:56] <thx1137> Jordan_U: shows some general info about supported cards, but was looking for more of a list of cards, I'll keep looking though
[08:56] <Jordan_U> foug, Ahh, OK
[08:56] <Flannel> GamingX: Try reinstalling ubuntu-desktop
[08:56] <ramseize> question: can i access the ntfs, edit files in the ntfs partition
[08:56] <syntaxx> m using cups and samba. and i have a little problem in printer class status in windows when i paused the class it shows the printer status not the printer class status anyone have an idea how to fix that?
[08:56] <GamingX> Flannel:How?
[08:56] <Flannel> !ntfs-3g | ramseize
[08:56] <ubotu> ramseize: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[08:56] <Flannel> GamingX: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[08:57] <decoy> Jordan_U: well i just configured xserver-xorg. but in the resoltuion selecting tool it just stops at 1024x768
[08:57] <riotkittie> ramseize: you can enable writing to NTFS from linux BUT it's still in beta stage and there is the potential of something going wrong. just a warning.
[08:57] <adromeda> I havn't had any problems with it, yet...
[08:57] <Jordan_U> decoy, Did you configure it with dpkg-reconfigure?
[08:57] <Dustin> Ok going back to the install process here for a second. I've looked at both links provided. On Step 4 of 7, it gives three options. Now when I slide the bar all the way to the left, it says 'new partition size' of 72% or 75.1GB. Now thats the size my windows partition is. Am I reading that right?
[08:57] <Flannel> riotkittie: no, it's been out of beta for a few months now
[08:57] <decoy> Jordan_U: yes
[08:58] <Jordan_U> decoy, Did you try scrolling up?
[08:58] <riotkittie> Flannel: really? :O
[08:58] <ThanatosDrive> Flannel: How may I go about partioning this space for WinXP before I insert my WinXP CD? I only need about 5 GB (whatever is enough to run XP and DaemonTools)
[08:58] <foug> Jordan_U: i'd try to take a SS but it doesn't work, lol
[08:58] <decoy> Jordan_U: yeah, and i also used nvidia-settings
[08:58] <riotkittie> wow. i suppose it had to happen sometime, eh? :P
[08:58] <nox-Hand> Could anyone help me? My PC randomly changed to not booting GDM at start and I have no X - it states this at boot:
[08:58] <nox-Hand>  * Not starting GNOME Display Manager (gdm); it is not the default display manager.
[08:58] <GamingX> Flannel:It says desktop is already installed, I think I must change the theme, but I dont know how?
[08:58] <Flannel> ThanatosDrive: any liveCD will be able to do it (if you've got more than one HDD, you may be able to do it without the live CD too)
[08:59] <riotkittie> nox-Hand: randomly? <raises eyebrow>
[08:59] <Dustin> Ok going back to the install process here for a second. I've looked at both links provided. On Step 4 of 7, it gives three options. Now when I slide the bar all the way to the left, it says 'new partition size' of 72% or 75.1GB. Now thats the size my windows partition is. Am I reading that right?
[08:59] <ThanatosDrive> Flannel: Wait. This is if I have Ubuntu installed BEFORE XP, yes?
[08:59] <MikeRotch> yea but with manual you don't do the bar
[08:59] <MikeRotch> you manually specify in numbers
[08:59] <MikeRotch> the size of the new partition
[08:59] <riotkittie> nox-Hand: does 'sudo invoke<TAB HERE because i forget> gdm start'  do anything?
[08:59] <MikeRotch> on the same disk (hda1)
[08:59] <Flannel> nox-Hand: try dpkg-reconfigure --config gdm
[09:00] <Dustin> ok.
[09:00] <MikeRotch> =)
[09:00] <Flannel> ThanatosDrive: right.  You can't make changes to drives that are mounted
[09:00] <Dustin> ok going to defrag windows real quick. i think i got this figured out now.
[09:00] <Dustin> thanks everybody
[09:00] <nox-Hand> riotkittie: Yeah, that\s confusing, eh? I have in the last 10 boots ONLY edited my FSTAB which I have changed back to original. Apart form that, I created an ext3 partition on the 28gb unformatted partition (before that there was sda1 as / and sda2 as swap, sda3 unformatted)
[09:00] <MikeRotch> welcome and hey
[09:00] <Dustin> yes?
[09:00] <MikeRotch> when you specify the numbers make the root "/"
[09:00] <MikeRotch> and make it start at the end if you are defragging
[09:00] <MikeRotch> make the new partition "start at he end of the drive" =)
[09:00] <Dustin> gotcha.
[09:01] <Dustin> thx
[09:01] <nox-Hand> riotkittie: Your invoke command says the same as my error.
[09:01] <MikeRotch> welcome. laters goo dluck
[09:01] <ubu> im trying to remove compiz and it tells me it will also remove "ubuntu-desktop". will that mess with my system?
[09:01] <dem0n> hey i have a question how do i make my disk check its self when mounted
[09:01] <Flannel> ubu: nope, ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage
[09:01] <Harrison> Can somebody look at my script? I'm trying to make it parse commands, but it doesn't seem to be working. http://paste.debian.net/33885
[09:01] <riotkittie> nox-Hand: i'm sure there are better answers out there, but have you tried removing and reinstalling gdm?
[09:02] <bullgard4> lspci -vv output includes for example: "00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 03) (prog-if 00 [UHCI] )Subsystem: Wistron Corp. Unknown device 10a5". Is the number 00:1d.0 a part of the PCI namespace?
[09:02] <dem0n> because after awhile it will say drive /dev/sda has been mounted 40 times without being checked
[09:02] <ubu> Flannel: ah so its safe to just remove it?
[09:02] <GamingX> How do I change the ubuntu theme to its default?
[09:02] <Flannel> ubu: yep, you'll need to reinstall it for an upgrade to gutsy though, when you make the jump
[09:02] <dem0n> lol illanoise
[09:02] <pawan_>  i am getting blackish image using camorama
[09:02] <ThanatosDrive> Flannel: So I could just shut-down my PC right now, pop in the WindowsXP install CD, install it, and it won't touch my Linux partition? (assuming I've already partitioned a separate section for Windows.) And then once Windows is installed, pop in a LiveCD, and reinstall/reconfigure GRUB.
[09:02] <pawan_>  i have nokia6600 can its camera be used as pc camera via bluetooth
[09:02] <MikeRotch> whoa dem0n
[09:03] <riotkittie> ThanatosDrive: right.
[09:03] <Harrison> Can somebody look at my script? I'm trying to make it parse commands, but it doesn't seem to be working. http://paste.debian.net/33885
[09:03] <dem0n> nothin
[09:03] <ubu> Flannel: ok cool, thanks for the heads up
[09:03] <MikeRotch> Gaming: System?Pref? Theme?
[09:03] <ThanatosDrive> riotkittie: So...partitioning this section. How do I go about?
[09:03] <MikeRotch> sry >=?
[09:03] <dem0n> harrison what type of script
[09:03] <Harrison> dem0n: Bash
[09:03] <dem0n> is it ubuntu related?
[09:03] <riotkittie> ThanatosDrive: partition which section? for Win?
[09:03] <Flannel> ThanatosDrive: Yeah, if you've got space for it, windows only touches the partitions you tell it to
[09:03] <xxtigurxx> hey all: i recently just had ubuntu installed and working perfectly. When i tried to boot it this morning, right after my bios loaded there was a blank screen with 2 cursors, one near the top, and one near the middle, blinking really rapidly. After powering off and on many times i was able to get grub loader, but ubuntu was going all crazy. Im trying to reinstall, but it keeps freezing up at 41% near the copying files part.
[09:04] <dem0n> as in bad drivers help mounting drives etc
[09:04] <adromeda> Acronis Disk Director is your friend ;)
[09:04] <ThanatosDrive> riotkittie: Yeah the section for WindowsXP. I need an empty partition, right? How do I go about partitioning it?
[09:04] <dem0n> we are not a programming channel
[09:04] <Harrison> dem0n: Kinda sorta.
[09:04] <xxtigurxx> Is it possible somethings wrong with my hard drive?
[09:04] <xxtigurxx> it seems like the partitions are all messed up or something
[09:04] <MikeRotch> anything is possible, is it probable?
[09:04] <xxtigurxx> I have no idea...
[09:05] <xxtigurxx> Im really at a loss right now, it was running fine.
[09:05] <dem0n> We are not a programming channel please join a programmin channel for that question harrison
[09:05] <xxtigurxx> It seems like a hardware error.
[09:05] <dem0n> xxtigurxx: type /j #hbh
[09:05] <xxtigurxx> whats that dem0n?
[09:05] <ThanatosDrive> xxtigurxx: Try to first detect where the problem is. Make sure the wires are connected properly, try taking your HD and setting it as slave to another PC and running a chkdsk, etc.
[09:05] <riotkittie> ThanatosDrive: i'd use gparted, if you have it. preferrably the live cd version (which you can find by googling, easily).
[09:05] <xxtigurxx> its on a laptop, thats my problem
[09:05] <ThanatosDrive> riotkittie: I have gparted, but I'm not sure if it's the LiveCD version.
[09:06] <riotkittie> But if you have a Win specific tool like Partiton Magic or something, you may want to us... no wait, you dont have windows installed. heh.
[09:06] <ThanatosDrive> xxtigurxx: Ouch.
[09:06] <adromeda> hmm, idk, If I were u, I would boot up windows, run Acronis Disk Director, and delete your Ubuntu partitions, of course, then you would get the grub menu...
[09:06] <nox-Hand> riotkittie: I have now: This is output; * Reloading GNOME Display Manager configuration... * Changes will take effect when all current X sessions have ended.
[09:06] <adromeda> o
[09:06] <nox-Hand> invoke-rc.d: initscript gdm, action "reload" failed.
[09:06] <Flannel> nox-Hand: try dpkg-reconfigure --config gdm
[09:06] <riotkittie> ThanatosDrive: the live CD version of gparted is... just gparted on a cd. nothing else.
[09:07] <adromeda> just completely delete your Ubuntu partition in the gnome app?
[09:07] <nox-Hand> Flannel, --config is not an option
[09:07] <ThanatosDrive> riotkittie: Ah then, no, I don't have the LiveCD version. And since I am currently out of empty CD-Rs, I probably won't be obtaining it soon.
[09:07] <ramseize> question: can you give me the best way on how to partion my disk:  like i have allocated 30gig for my ubuntu how would i mount it? how much would i put on the filesystem or do i have t o put it all
