[03:36] <Concord_Dawn> carthik, I want to backup to an external HDD
[03:36] <NoUse> ronald_ read the topic
[03:36] <carthik> Concord_Dawn, oh, sorry -- so you want to backup onto the same hdd? rsync is probably the best option - i beleive...
[03:36] <TylerE> cafuego: the characters I need are somewhat unusual and NOT in BS Vera
[03:36] <{GuNNeR}> cafuego: I know, however the 32 bit drivers don't work in 32 bit but the 64 do in 64 bit
[03:36] <carthik> Concord_Dawn, okay, great, search for what i suggested earlier.... minus the ssh
[03:37] <Concord_Dawn> rsync?
[03:37] <robotgeek> i find it hard to go understand the motive behind this attack!
[03:37] <Carpe_Libertatem> Christ. Why am I getting so much spam?
[03:37] <lexmark> how about these.. .i586.tar.bz2 packages? is it possible to install in Ubuntu?
[03:37] <carthik> Concord_Dawn, using rsync you can create rotating snapshot style backups that do no, afte rhte first, take up the entire space of whatever is being backed up
[03:37] <codecaine> Carpe_Libertatem, so am I!

[03:37] <Carpe_Libertatem> Danke.
[03:37] <funkyHat> Carpe_Libertatem, read the channel topic, doing that should stop it
[03:37] <codecaine> ubotu: tell codecaine about spambots
[03:37] <carthik> Concord_Dawn, searching on google or del.icio.us would show you lots of articles...

[03:38] <ubotu> methinks anyone is 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and YOU decide? <hint>
[03:38] <Carpe_Libertatem> I have a problem. I have a dual-boot system. On HDB, I have three partitions, an NTFS, a Swap, and An Ext2/3. I used a program to automatically mount all partitions, and now Windows sees HDB as one huge RAW disk.
[03:38] <Concord_Dawn> carthik, I want to backup to a USB harddrive.
[03:38] <carthik> Concord_Dawn, yes, dude... that is what i am talking about
[03:38] <lexmark> how about these.. .i586.tar.bz2 packages? is it possible to install in Ubuntu?
[03:38] <carthik> Concord_Dawn, do you want me to do the searching now? :)
[03:39] <gdarel> chadza: Amarok
[03:39] <codecaine> what is +CE ?
[03:39] <Concord_Dawn> ok

[03:43] <NoUse> Carpe_Libertatem and windows can't read any of those partitions?
[03:43] <robotgeek> kad2: get it from your drivers cd?
[03:43] <bwlang> what's with this webcamera spam... anybody know how to stop it?
[03:43] <kad2> i downloaded the linksys drivers... it has 2 .inf files, i have tried both, but it says both are invalid driver files....
[03:44] <Carpe_Libertatem> NoUse: right, the partition was unaltered and previously showed as drive D:, Drive D: is now one huge RAW disk that Windows wants me to format.

[03:44] <dionysus> trying to install freeciv from source, I get complaints about it not being able to find gtk-config (locate can't find it either, so it really isn't on my system)...I've hit problems like this before and never really been able to find a way around them, don't spose anyone has any suggestions?
[03:44] <robotgeek> kad2: links on the ndiswrapper wiki?
[03:44] <ronald_> bwlang...type in /umode +CE
[03:44] <robotgeek> dionysus: mostly you would need to install the dev package, i guess
[03:44] <kad2> no, i dont see any that will give the drivers.. i know its a broadcom chip via using the show pci command
[03:45] <NoUse> Carpe_Libertatem did you resize the partition or anything?
[03:45] <dionysus> ah ok
[03:45] <kad2> the file on ndiswrapper just shows the card as a broadcom also
[03:45] <Carpe_Libertatem> NoUse: I said the partition was unaltered. =P

[03:47] <codecaine> i can still ctcp version myself, does +C just mean no one else can?

[03:47] <kcidx> ok when i run xdriinfo i get this output Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[03:47] <kcidx> libGL is too old.
[03:47] <kcidx>  any help with that? i'm using breezy and just ran the update and it banged my 3d all up
[03:48] <Carpe_Libertatem> NoUse: How can I format and make partitions in Ubuntu? I want to split the NTFS partition into two FAT32 partitions
[03:48] <nalioth> codecaine: the +C keeps unregisted users from CTCPing YOU (not protect you from yourself)
[03:48] <dcuny> Howdy! I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu onto an old Vaio laptop. I I think the issue has to do do with the libc library being compiled for a i686.
[03:48] <NoUse> Carpe_Libertatem qtparted is probably your best bet
[03:48] <robotgeek> Carpe_Libertatem: or gparted
[03:49] <codecaine> nalioth, You'll still receive CTCP messages sent to a channel you are on, although the network will block your response to them. "that's why i say that"

[03:52] <funkyHat> overflow, is that a problem? it still works doesn't it?
[03:52] <pepe> and it seems to install well
[03:52] <pepe> except it doesn't run
[03:52] <Carpe_Libertatem> NoUse: Also, do you know the app that automatically mounts NTFS/FAT32 partitions?
[03:52] <carthik> pepe, it has some dependencies...
[03:52] <codecaine> nalioth, ok just confused because i dont know what the "channel ctcp" is all about
[03:52] <flugh> good grief, the spam. gotta get xchat to set the umode automatically on connect. yeesh, ought to just join efnet or something :)
[03:52] <pepe> says there's an error loading shared libraries libqt-mt
[03:52] <overflow> funkyHat, nobody says that was a problem
[03:53] <pepe> I'm guessing I need to apt-get qt?

[03:53] <unvs_> yeh

[03:56] <carthik> linuxpoet, many ways.... searching on google will lead you the right way
[03:56] <robotgeek> intelikey: read /topic
[03:56] <funkyHat> Arsonide, right click on your gnome panel (where you want the button to go, mine is next to my VDM buttons) and click add applet, make it a launcher
[03:56] <Chadza> Applications / Sound & Video / Sound Juicer CD Ripper
[03:56] <Chadza> Check that one out.
[03:56] <pepe> linuxpoet - debian has a godlike package database, do a search in synaptik... I'm guessing it'll be one of KDE's apps, though
[03:56] <Paradoxx> they need to update the package they have for gaim
[03:57] <Paradoxx> so i can get the latest version...
[03:57] <Paradoxx> lol
[03:57] <Concord_Dawn> anyone know any NTFS drivers that allow you to write?
[03:57] <Concord_Dawn> I don't care how experimental they are.
[03:57] <moparfan90> is there a way to report people sendin porn?
[03:57] <moparfan90> to get them banned?
[03:57] <bimberi> Paradoxx: backports has later versions of gaim
[03:57] <intelikey> robotgeek yeah what about the topic ?
[03:57] <pepe> moparfan90 /umode +CE
[03:57] <robotgeek> intelikey: to get rid of the spambots
[03:57] <pepe> that'll get rid of them
[03:58] <Paradoxx> Concord_Dawn:  if i recall correctly, if you have 2.4+ (kernel that is) you can write to NTFS partitions, but its not all that safe
[03:58] <Paradoxx> it does?
[03:58] <Concord_Dawn> not afaik.
[03:58] <moparfan90> okt thanks
[03:58] <pepe> I thought only 2.6+ kernels could write NTFS
[03:58] <pepe> and they can't edit, only overwrite
[03:58] <Paradoxx> bimberi:  but when i try to apt-get, i can get it
[03:58] <Concord_Dawn> tbh, I have kernel 2.6.11
[03:58] <moparfan90> can someone help me install limewire? please.
[03:58] <Concord_Dawn> and it don't write.
[03:58] <bimberi> Paradoxx: gaim 1.4 iirc
[03:58] <Paradoxx> Concord_Dawn: you gotta mount it as a -rw i think
[03:58] <funkyHat> moparfan90, sudo apt-get install gtk-gnutella
[03:58] <intelikey> hehhe yeah i missed that line    sorry.
[03:58] <Concord_Dawn> erm
[03:58] <dcuny> what's the question about installing limewire?
[03:58] <Paradoxx> bimberi: huh?
[03:59] <Concord_Dawn> It's an external drive
[03:59] <pepe> edit your fstab
[03:59] <pepe> /etc/fstab
[03:59] <pepe> and where under options for your NTFS partition, put rw
[03:59] <pepe> or -rw
[03:59] <moparfan90> funkyHat, whats that?
[03:59] <pepe> or something like that
[03:59] <pepe> hehehe ^^
[03:59] <pepe> same thing
[03:59] <pepe> it should have a device name
[03:59] <{GuNNeR}> grrrrrrr darn having to install 64 bit ubuntu only to get my wifi workin in ndiswrapper
[03:59] <bimberi> paradox iirc = "if I recall correctly" (if that was what huh? was related to)
[04:00] <pepe> you could add it to fstab or just do mount -rw /dev/(device name)
[04:01] <dcuny> Hrm... I
[04:01] <intelikey> new kernel support ntfs rw mode ?
[04:01] <Paradoxx> bimberi: i kno that 1.4 is the laterst version, but atm i have 1.1.5 and it won't update
[04:01] <funkyHat> Arsonide, you got that working?
[04:01] <Paradoxx> everytime i try to update gaim it says that it is held back
[04:01] <Concord_Dawn> herm
[04:01] <dcuny> I've having trouble installing onto an older laptop. Any takers?
[04:01] <{GuNNeR}> is anyone here running ubuntu for amd64?
[04:01] <Concord_Dawn> can someone tell me where external devices are?
[04:02] <Concord_Dawn> and not /media
[04:02] <Concord_Dawn> the /dev name
[04:02] <jtan325> argh i am getting spammed

[04:02] <bimberi> Paradoxx: ok - the official backports has 1.3.1
[04:03] <Arsonide> Ok I see, 3ddesk --goto # will go to the correct desktop, can I tie these commands to the buttons in the bottom right?
[04:03] <ronald_> How about /mnt?
[04:03] <Arsonide> So that pressing them does the effect?
[04:03] <Paradoxx> when i try to update it dosen't
[04:03] <Paradoxx> y is that?

[04:10] <bmecoli-> Concord_Dawn, you don't want to from what I heard
[04:11] <bmecoli-> if you could writing to it would corrupt your data
[04:11] <seth_k> Concord_Dawn, it's very easy to hose your system.
[04:11] <funkyHat> pepe, if that fixes it, upgrading to alsa 1.0.9b should fix your problem

[04:48] <pprince_> Maybe I'm missing something about irssi-snapshot, but isn't that supposed to install a nightly development snapshot from CVS?
[04:48] <carthik> puzzle, folks try to help - and say nothing when they can't help... thats the way it works... for free
[04:48] <lunitik> burner, assume its very much a known bug then?
[04:48] <jsubl2> kelly_, try running sudo wvdial   maybe you will get lucky
[04:48] <burner> lunitik, in rhythmbox?  using breezy?
[04:49] <lunitik> burner, yes
[04:49] <puzzle> they are not sayin they cant help
[04:49] <burner> yep :)
[04:49] <puzzle> my goodness
[04:49] <burner> new version was released today, but it didn't fix it for me
[04:49] <burner> supposedly it did for another lucky soul
[04:49] <lunitik> burner, k... cool... saves me a trip to b-u-c   :)
[04:49] <pprince_> helin is a SPAMMER
[04:49] <carthik> puzzle, what i intended to say is that there is no obligation :)
[04:49] <burner> i came here earlier today with the same question ;)
[04:49] <puzzle> i know
[04:49] <puzzle> but still
[04:49] <puzzle> my goodnes
[04:49] <carthik> what?
[04:49] <kelly_> jsubl2: no luck..:(
[04:49] <kelly_> any suggestion?
[04:50] <jsubl2> kelly_, no sorry.  have not used a modem in a long time.
[04:50] <tod_ko1> Hmm... this room has porn bots!
[04:50] <tod_ko1> Later
[04:50] <pprince_> YES.
[04:50] <Juhaz> puzzle, would you rather every last of the 315 people on the channel explicitly told you that they do not, in fact, know the answer?
[04:50] <funkyHat> tod_ko1, read the /topic
[04:50] <lunitik> burner, ooo... beep is quite nice... thanks   :)
[04:50] <kelly_> i realy dont know what is the modem of my laptop... i have tried scanmodem...but there are many txt..i dont know where is the model of my modem
[04:51] <pepe> alright
[04:51] <pepe> still no go on the sound system
[04:51] <puzzle> my goodnness why do people come in here to help if they done
[04:51] <bimberi> pepe: darn! oh well :(
[04:52] <pprince_> OPs: Channel has coordinated spammers from different hostmasks, changing nicks and connecting from different hosts.
[04:52] <nalioth> puzzle: rewrite your batch file
[04:52] <MaxKyoto> i've switched my window manager to blackbox, but for some reason my xsession file in $HOME isn't being used... any ideas?
[04:52] <puzzle> how
[04:52] <puzzle> nalioth,
[04:52] <nalioth> pprince_: see the /topic
[04:52] <pprince_> oh, sorry.
[04:52] <puzzle> did u see what happens when i d that
[04:53] <robotgeek> MaxKyoto: what are u using gdm/kdm?
[04:53] <MaxKyoto> gdm
[04:53] <carthik> lets try this another way - /dev/sda1 on this desktop is a scsi harddrive... /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda5 are other partitions on the harddrive (boot - swap and / respectively). So now if i plug in a usb drive, what would it be recongnized as - sorry - dmesg tells me nothing about the usb device being plugged in....
[04:54] <robotgeek> MaxKyoto: i think you might have to create a session or so, /etc/gdm/sessions
[04:54] <pepe> I'm on a VIA AC97 sound controller, and I can't get sound to come out of my headphones... I've tested them in other comps, and I used to get sound out of this box a couple days ago when I had Debian on it
[04:54] <intelikey> kelly_ did you try setting modem to /dev/ttyS0   or /dev/ttyS1  or S2 S3  to see if it was a hardware moden
[04:54] <pprince_> carthik: actually, /dev/sda is the drive and /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, etc are all partitions.
[04:54] <carthik> robotgeek, hi! the usb thingy still no worky
[04:54] <pepe> I've checked everything that's come to mind, including whether it's muted or not
[04:54] <chucky_> aumix and check sound levels an mute
[04:54] <XRange> have you opened mixer to unmute
[04:54] <pepe> also, Volume Meter shows that there's sound output going on, but I'm not getting anything
[04:54] <robotgeek> carthik: not even lsusb output?
[04:54] <carthik> pprince_, oh, alright... so where would the usb drives be, if at all?
[04:54] <MaxKyoto> i have no /etc/gdm/sessions
[04:54] <pprince_> carthik: and, if dmesg said nothing, then the drive is probably not being recognized at all by the kernel because of lack of driver support (either compiled in or loaded as a module)
[04:55] <MaxKyoto> should i not use the session from the gdm chooser?
[04:55] <pepe> sound is unmuted and at decent levels
[04:55] <carthik> robotgeek, lsusb gives naught
[04:55] <ksmurf> WOW! That was cool!  The startup in breezy hasn't done anything till this update.  I had a black screen with ubuntu refected during startup.... that was COOL!
[04:55] <GoClick> Are there any good public DNS servers anyone knows of? My provider's servers keep crashing and that's not so good
[04:55] <carthik> pprince_, how come it works just fine on my laptop though? (which also runs same ubuntu version etc)
[04:55] <pprince_> carthik: I don't know.
[04:55] <carthik> pprince_, the usbmodules are loaded....
[04:56] <pprince_> carthik: Compare lsmod on your desktop and your laptop.
[04:56] <robotgeek> MaxKyoto: make a copy of whatever session is present, and edit it to use blackbox
[04:56] <pepe> anyone know what I can do to troubleshoot my sound system here?
[04:56] <XRange> GoClick used your router gatway as dns
[04:56] <robotgeek> carthik: maybe, the harddrive doesn't work without usb 2.0? :))
[04:56] <ksmurf> pepe ....  what's the issue
[04:56] <pepe> well
[04:56] <pepe> all my channels are unmuted
[04:56] <GoClick> XRange our router doesn't DO DNS :(
[04:56] <pepe> but I just can't get any sound
[04:57] <MaxKyoto> i already have a blackbox session in gdm (via apt-get install blackbox)
[04:57] <ksmurf> what card ?
[04:57] <carthik> pprince_, lsmod yields same results... on dektop it give u/o/ehci_hcd (usbcore)
[04:57] <pepe> VIA AC97
[04:57] <pprince_> carthik: huh?
[04:57] <carthik> robotgeek, but it does, just fine on another desktop (i plugged into into another...)
[04:57] <pepe> which is strange, because it's just about the most common sound controller I've seen :P
[04:57] <ksmurf> AC97 ...... Did you check the forums?
[04:57] <WillySilly> the colony 3 cd isnt on the website
[04:57] <pprince_> carthik: Are you using the same kernel package on both machines?
[04:57] <burner> lunitik, glad you like beep :)
[04:57] <carthik> pprince_, lsmod | grep usb gives usbcore 3 uhci_hcd, ehci_hcd, ehci_hcd is what i meant
[04:57] <pepe> there seemed to be some sort of solution having to do with the grub booter but still no go
[04:58] <carthik> pprince_, yes
[04:58] <funkyHat> pepe, have you tried it with anything other than skype?
[04:58] <carthik> pprince_, in fact i finished installing everything concurrently on both machines :)
[04:58] <pepe> yup
[04:58] <robotgeek> carthik: do the usb ports work?
[04:58] <pepe> I've tried it with a .wav file, and with a radio station thing
[04:58] <pepe> same thing
[04:58] <XRange> is there a channel for printing in Ubuntu
[04:58] <pprince_> carthik: :/ sorry then, I don't have time to help, or experience with that particular issue to help well/quickly in any case.
[04:58] <pepe> Volume Meter shows sound output going on, but I get nothing on my headphones
[04:58] <ksmurf> pepe ... sorry I don't have AC97 on this board so I won't be any help
[04:58] <keith> ackness- im havinga ton of trouble getting hte synaptic package manager to work
[04:58] <carthik> robotgeek, when i plug in a 128 sandisk cruzer, the lights on the 128MB card come on real bright
[04:59] <keith> it keeps reporting some kind of problem with kmix
[04:59] <keith> heres the error:
[04:59] <robotgeek> carthik: ahhh!
[04:59] <robotgeek> carthik: weird!!
[04:59] <keith> im attempting to install the sun java sdk
[04:59] <carthik> pprince_, i really appreciate your help.... i am too puzzled to know what to do next... really
[04:59] <lee> is there a way to tell the Software Update thingy in the panel next to the clock to ignore certain updates?  it's telling me there's an update for a java package, which I built manually, and there isn't
[04:59] <WillySilly> the colony 3 cd isnt on the website
[04:59] <keith> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update04_i386.deb:  files list file for package `kmix' is missing final newline
[04:59] <kelly_> intelikey: yes i have... when i set it to /dev/ttyS1 if i connect it will say modem not responding.. if i change it to the diferent../dev/ttySo or other tty the error is.. cannot open modem...:(
[05:00] <keith> anyone know what i can do about this? its happening whenever i try to install ANYTHING
[05:00] <robotgeek> carthik: what usb hdd is this?
[05:00] <Jazy84> what program can be used to make dvd imgs
[05:00] <carthik> robotgeek, i know.... well, my desktop must have had a real rough day, i suppose :)
[05:00] <Jazy84> exact
[05:00] <Jazy84> ?
[05:00] <Jazy84> not movies or anything like that. but data
[05:00] <chucky_> i didn't think java would run on ubuntu
[05:00] <nalioth> chucky_: it does
[05:00] <carthik> robotgeek, its a 200 gig seagate in a external usb enclosue (but even the sandisk 128 mb usb stick wont work)
[05:01] <deprave> anyone have luck with installing scribus 1.3?
[05:01] <robotgeek> carthik: i have a similar setup
[05:01] <QMario> Can I use my Yahoo e-mail account with Evolution?
[05:01] <pprince_> I like how irssi-text refers to irssi-snapshot as "irssi-snapshot: Development version of the text-mode client" but it's not.
[05:01] <deprave> QMario : does yahoo have pop3?
[05:01] <deprave> or imap?
[05:01] <deprave> etc
[05:01] <pepe> ah here we go
[05:01] <deprave> anyone have luck with installing scribus 1.3?
[05:01] <pepe> how do I disable esd again?
[05:01] <intelikey> looks like it is /dev/ttyS1 (com2 in windows) but a winmodem  so if you are really lucky kelly_ you might find a driver for it,  check linmodem.com or something like that.
[05:01] <pepe> and use alsa instead
[05:01] <deprave> !scribus
[05:01] <ubotu> deprave: NO SPEAKE ENLISH!
[05:02] <deprave> !tell deprave about scribus
[05:02] <deprave> useless.
[05:02] <funkyHat> QMario, if you can set up yahoo to use pop3 and smtp, then yes (i think you can do the pop3, not sure about smtp though, so you may not be able to send mail, unless you have another email account)
[05:02] <nalioth> QMario: you'll need something like yahooPOPs or similar
[05:02] <master008> hi
[05:02] <nalioth> funkyHat: yahoo doesnt do pop3 unless you pay
[05:02] <robotgeek> QMario: thunderbird has a nice webmail plugin
[05:02] <pepe> I think my problems may be with the esd sound daemon
[05:02] <QMario> How do I stop these spam robots?
[05:02] <pprince_> QMario: Topic.
[05:02] <robotgeek> QMario: /topic
[05:02] <pepe> QMario /umode +CE
[05:02] <intelikey> i hate propritary hardware.....
[05:02] <pprince_> QMario: I wish they would just eliminate them, though.
[05:02] <pprince_> What is +CE anyway?
[05:03] <bimberi> !umode
[05:03] <ubotu> The freenode user modes are described at http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml
[05:03] <pprince_> thx, trying to find that.
[05:03] <master008> i have wireless card,,, how do i install my wireless network card in my laptop.. im using ubuntu
[05:03] <deprave> crap
[05:03] <QMario> Thank you!
[05:03] <master008> anybody help me
[05:03] <XRange> pepe:  try system, perefences, multimedia system selector
[05:04] <QMario> Who wants to look at pornography anyway? :'(
[05:04] <pepe> hmm
[05:04] <QMario> Not me! >:o
[05:04] <lunitik> sup @ smeg being quite nice  :o
[05:04] <pepe> ALSA doesn't work?...
[05:04] <pprince_> eww, +CE breaks stuff for me.  Are the spam bots too smart to deal with properly?
[05:04] <intelikey> !+wifi
[05:04] <ubotu> it has been said that wifi is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto
[05:04] <XRange> pepe:  thats if you use gnome
[05:04] <nalioth> pprince_: what does it break?
[05:04] <Concord_Dawn> pprince_, Spam bots are too stupid to deal with it at all.
[05:05] <master008> any body wanna help me
[05:05] <pepe> I -am- using gnome
[05:05] <Concord_Dawn> master008, with what?
[05:05] <master008> i want to install my wireless network card on my laptop.
[05:05] <Concord_Dawn> ok
[05:05] <Concord_Dawn> what wireless card?
[05:05] <pepe> when I picked ALSA instead of ESD, I got an error that it can't make a pipeline to ALSA...
[05:05] <lunitik> pprince_, people that aren't registered can't message you... if this is related to your 'breaks' ... tell your 'friend' to register...
[05:05] <QMario> Is it possible to use Evolution with Gmail?
[05:05] <intelikey> !+tell master008 about wifi
[05:05] <ubotu> told master008 about wifi (rumour has it, wifi is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WiFiHowto)
[05:05] <pprince_> Receiving (wanted) personal CTCP messages, sending (wanted) CTCP replies, and receiving (wanted) messages from unidentified users.
[05:05] <master008> its 11m wlan card
[05:05] <GoClick> QMario not really no
[05:05] <QMario> !spam
[05:05] <ubotu> QMario: What?
[05:05] <Concord_Dawn> pprince_, well, deal with it. It's either that or being flooded.
[05:05] <bytefoo> man, 3ddesktop is kind of laggy huh
[05:05] <pprince_> heh, whatever.
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> bytefoo, yeah, but it's elite looking
[05:06] <GoClick> Although I predict Google will add IMAP interfaces to GMAIL eventually, OR someone will make one
[05:06] <QMario> Can I use Gmail with Thunderbird?
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> master008, check out the link ubotu just gave you
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> QMario, yes.
[05:06] <bytefoo> yeah, but for me it freezes everything for a split second every few seconds :-/
[05:06] <XRange> master008: try system , admin , networking in gnome in ubuntu
[05:06] <bytefoo> can't even type lol :X
[05:06] <robotgeek> QMario: yeah
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> I have it working
[05:06] <QMario> How do I set it up?
[05:06] <bytefoo> it is sweet lookin though :-/
[05:06] <Concord_Dawn> one sec, lemme grab you the page
[05:07] <Concord_Dawn> QMario: http://gmail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=13285
[05:07] <master008> thanks you so much guys
[05:07] <Concord_Dawn> can anyone here add definitions to ubotu
[05:07] <Concord_Dawn> no problem master008
[05:08] <nalioth> QMario: log into your gmail account using a browser, and therer is a link there to set up your client
[05:08] <Concord_Dawn> nalioth, I just gave him the link :)
[05:08] <bimberi> Concord_Dawn: you can :)
[05:08] <bimberi> !tell Concord_Dawn about add
[05:08] <nalioth> Concord_Dawn: great! concurrence is good security
[05:09] <rendi> guy's anyone know about change gateway ?
[05:09] <XRange> is there channel for cups
[05:09] <cafuego> Oooher
[05:09] <XRange> is there channel for cups in ubuntu
[05:09] <XRange> got printer working in openoffice but not other apps
[05:09] <krazikamikaze> anyone here had any success getting the IT8212 raid controller to work in linux?
[05:09] <krazikamikaze> im sooo close but im completely stuck
[05:10] <cafuego> krazikamikaze: Isn't that software raid?
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> ubotu gmail is Instructions to configure GMail with a POP3 client are located at http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?ctx=%67mail&hl=en&answer=12103
[05:10] <ubotu> okay, Concord_Dawn
[05:10] <XRange> evolution, mozilla-firefox want print
[05:10] <krazikamikaze> no its hw
[05:10] <rendi> !gateway
[05:10] <ubotu> rendi: I give up, what is it?
[05:10] <levander> How do I attach multiple terminal windows to the same screen session?
[05:10] <cafuego> krazikamikaze: An on-mobo chip?
[05:10] <krazikamikaze> yeah
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> levander, what do you mean?
[05:10] <cafuego> software then
[05:10] <cafuego> the software being the bios on that chip
[05:10] <krazikamikaze> eh.. ok
[05:10] <funkyHat> levander, C-a c
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> like have a tabbed terminal?
[05:10] <cafuego> used it in ide mode and use the kernel 'md' driver
[05:10] <bytefoo> yeah, there are very few HW raid cards :X
[05:10] <levander> Concord_Dawn: I want to have two terminal windows attached to the same screen session.
[05:10] <Concord_Dawn> like have a tabbed terminal?
[05:11] <levander> Concord_Dawn: screen is an application, you know the application screen?
[05:11] <Concord_Dawn> no.
[05:11] <Concord_Dawn> I don't.
[05:11] <pprince_> screen rocks.
[05:11] <masterloki> hi there can't someone help me
[05:11] <cafuego> bytefoo: there's nots, but they're invariable NOT integrated into a mobo and cost at LEAST five times as much as the mobo you'll be using it with :-)
[05:11] <funkyHat> levander, this guide is very good: http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Using_screen
[05:11] <XRange> levander: try gnome-terminal konsole
[05:11] <krazikamikaze> what is md, its currently loaded on my system
[05:11] <Concord_Dawn> masterloki, we can try :)
[05:11] <XRange> levander: try gnome-terminal are konsole
[05:11] <masterloki> I have no sound and I've already been on the forums
[05:12] <bytefoo> exactly cafuego
[05:12] <cafuego> !raid
[05:12] <ubotu> from memory, raid is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaidConfigurationHowto
[05:12] <masterloki> Alsa seems to have the proper driver
[05:12] <funkyHat> XRange, that's probably not what levander wants
[05:12] <levander> funkyHat: thanks, that does look like a good guide
[05:12] <cafuego> Although, I think the one on my mobo won't run in IDE mode.
[05:12] <XRange> masterloki : try system, perefences, multimedia system selector
[05:12] <masterloki> and alsa mixer shows that master & PCM are at 100%
[05:12] <levander> XRange: yeah, I use terminal applications for different stuff than screen.
[05:12] <cafuego> krazikamikaze: Do you have spare normal DIE ports on the mobo?
[05:12] <cafuego> s/DIE/IDE/
[05:12] <intelikey> masterloki it's not muted ?    sudo alsamixer
[05:12] <krazikamikaze> i have 1
[05:13] <krazikamikaze> so anyway, i can see the hd, i can see the partitions
[05:13] <levander> funkyHat: you use emacs and screen?  Need to remap screens C-a prefix to all it's commands, but not sure what a good thing to remap it is.  Emacs uses C-a to go to the beginning of the current line.  Having the two conflict really sux.
[05:13] <cafuego> krazikamikaze: Ah that's fine then.
[05:13] <masterloki> intelikey: nope, it's not muted
[05:13] <krazikamikaze> but every time i try to mount it says its busy or "already mounted"
[05:13] <funkyHat> levander, no, i use vim
[05:13] <krazikamikaze> which its not
[05:13] <krazikamikaze> im using the 2.6.11-ac7
[05:14] <Gazer_> Evening.. how do you enable dma on a cdrom drive on a PPC G3 Lombard?  How do you know what the cdrom is referred to?
[05:14] <funkyHat> ok, levander there is an escape code to use C-a in the application that is running, it's in that guide somewhere
[05:14] <XRange> got printer working in openoffice but not other apps like evolution & firefox
[05:14] <rendi> guy's
[05:14] <rendi> many spamer there
[05:14] <cafuego> Gazer_: it'd be /dev/hdb or /dev/hdc probably.
[05:14] <professor_chaos> Question? With a new drive, do I need to fdisk, or can I just mkfs? To create ext3...
[05:15] <konra`> I am trying to run something, and I get an error: "error while loading shared libraries: libSDL_image-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" what do I need?
[05:15] <cafuego> professor_chaos: fdisk to create a partition, then mkfs
[05:15] <krazikamikaze> any idea why it would give me that error though?
[05:15] <krazikamikaze> mount: /dev/hde5 already mounted or rdata0 busy
[05:15] <professor_chaos> cafuego, a new disk is not already a partiton???
[05:15] <bytefoo> now i have to fix my wireless :-/
[05:15] <keith> ack guys i really need help- no matter what i try to insatll on the package manager it returns a problem with kmix:
[05:15] <keith> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update04_i386.deb:  files list file for package `kmix' is missing final newline
[05:15] <krazikamikaze> neither of which is true
[05:15] <cafuego> professor_chaos: of course not
[05:15] <keith> and i cant install anything
[05:15] <konra`> professor_chaos, you have to create partitions, and then format them
[05:16] <levander> funkyHat: yeah, but don't think I want to hit the escape code every time I want to go to the beginning of the line in emacs.  Think it would just be easier to remap C-a in screen to something else.  Not sure what the best thing to re-map it is, to avoid as many conflicts as possible with emacs.
[05:16] <fanopnaic> konra`: you probably need to install libsdl-image1.2
[05:16] <konra`> professor_chaos, partitions are made by fdisk, formatted by mkfs
[05:16] <professor_chaos> konra`, but a new disk doesn't have a partition?
[05:16] <konra`> fanopnaic, cna I do that from synaptic?
[05:16] <fanopnaic> Yep
[05:16] <funkyHat> levander, perhaps C-\
[05:16] <konra`> professor_chaos, it might, but safest bet is to make the partiton table anyways
[05:17] <professor_chaos> konra`, cafuego Thanks
[05:17] <konra`> welcome
[05:17] <levander> funkyHat: that's not a bad guess.  I just tried it in emacs.  C-\ enables some kind of multi-lingual input I'll never need, because I only speak one language.
[05:18] <funkyHat> :)
[05:18] <funkyHat> and you can escape it anyway if you ever do need it
[05:18] <professor_chaos> whats with the free sex cameras???
[05:18] <levander> funkyHat: I would use C-q, but not sure if it would matter that I'm conflicting with the control flow sequence.  You know, C-q and C-s?
[05:18] <intelikey> masterloki you can do "play <any-sound-file> & od /dev/dsp "  [ctro] +C to stop od   if it outputs lines of numbers to the screen the software is working, possably wrong card selected or other (hardware) problem    if no output setup alsa again
[05:18] <levander> professor_chaos: free sex cameras?
[05:18] <bimberi> professor_chaos: the channel is being infested by spambots - see last bit of /topic
[05:18] <funkyHat> levander, the spambots
[05:18] <carthik> professor_chaos, please read the /topic
[05:18] <funkyHat> professor, do /umode +CE
[05:19] <professor_chaos> OK, I'm new to irc and this channel!
[05:19] <rendi> dude
[05:19] <rendi> many many spam here
[05:19] <carthik> professor_chaos, it's all fine...
[05:19] <intelikey> we need some boticide.....
[05:19] <funkyHat> rendi, read the /topic
[05:20] <carthik> one more mention of spam, and that's it - i will get a job at walmart!!!
[05:20] <funkyHat> hahaha
[05:20] <carthik> ;)
[05:20] <bimberi> spam :)
[05:20] <intelikey> :)
[05:20] <masterloki> intelikey: got number, but I'm sure I got the right card and the right driver
[05:20] <funkyHat> !spam
[05:20] <ubotu> parse error: dunno what the heck you're talking about, funkyHat
[05:20] <masterloki> !spam
[05:21] <bimberi> carthik: lol
[05:21] <intelikey> check speakers speakerwires propper port plug ,,,,, masterloki
[05:21] <bytefoo> when a package is not available, but is referred to by another package...how do I find out which package is referring to it and what is it saying about the missing package? o_O
[05:21] <funkyHat> ubotu, spam is a problem that is affecting #ubuntu at the moment, to overcome it please type '/mode *your nickname* +CE' and hit enter
[05:21] <ubotu> funkyHat: okay
[05:21] <masterloki> intelikey: They're in the right jack, they work on XP
[05:22] <tjs> Im running ubuntu on my dell inspiron 9200, having issues with the disks powering down to quickly. im not sure if its a laptop power management thing.. but stuff like tab completing paths is taking seconds while the disk spins up, its a PITA
[05:22] <masterloki> man someone is spamming me
[05:22] <tjs> can I make it stay powered up for a few minutes?
[05:23] <bytefoo> :|
[05:23] <runelind> I am having issues mounting a windows networked drive
[05:23] <bytefoo> marital issues? :D
[05:23] <runelind> I do mount -t smbfs username=username //ip/share /mount/point
[05:23] <intelikey> hmmmm masterloki you've got a good one then.  i don't know what to tell you...  if the software is outputing sound to the device and the hardware all works correctly it should work......
[05:23] <runelind> and after putting in my password it seems happy
[05:23] <runelind> but when I ls the dir I get permission denied
[05:24] <funkyHat> masterloki... see what i just said to ubotu ^
[05:24] <Chrustinho> how can i delete softlinks?
[05:24] <pprince_> with rm
[05:25] <runelind> anyone have any thoughts?
[05:25] <intelikey> Chrustinho man rm
[05:25] <masterloki> intelikey: I was using FC4 and sound was right
[05:25] <pprince_> ln -s /path/to/realfile /path/to/newsymlink makes a symlink, rm /path/to/newsymlink removes it.
[05:25] <Chrustinho> is i sure that it doesn't delete the source files?
[05:25] <Chrustinho> +t
[05:25] <pprince_> Yes.
[05:25] <Chrustinho> ok, thanks
[05:25] <intelikey> Chrustinho man rm
[05:26] <masterloki> but I've erased FC4 totally so I can't get that config
[05:26] <masterloki> any ideas
[05:26] <runelind> the user has full permissions on the windows side of thing
[05:26] <runelind> s
[05:26] <lunitik> masterloki, you know what module you need?
[05:27] <funkyHat> masterloki, try setting your default inputs and outputs to alsa, and run killall esd in a terminal window
[05:27] <professor_chaos> runelind, why would linux care about M$ permissions...
[05:27] <masterloki> Lunitk: I have the module (snd-via82xx)
[05:27] <runelind> cause I'm mounting a windows drive
[05:27] <Madpilot> hi everyone
[05:27] <lunitik> funkyHat, thats bad advice... too many apps default to using esd... but gnome etc uses gstreamer (which is all that changes)
[05:28] <bytefoo> what is PREFIX?
[05:28] <masterloki> funkyHat: who do I set ins ans outs to alsa
[05:28] <funkyHat> lunitik, i'm just fishing for clues
[05:28] <n1xt3r> runelind: read the man page for mount, try setting uid and gid or umask
[05:28] <professor_chaos> runelind, I think you either have access or don't. Not read only. I might be wrong, prove it.
[05:28] <funkyHat> masterloki, system, preferences, multimedia systems selector
[05:29] <lunitik> masterloki, that is loaded? sudo -i ... then in the resulting root environment... echo /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[05:29] <lunitik> masterloki, this sees if the module itself is working...
[05:29] <funkyHat> masterloki, as lunitik said all that is changing is the gnome sounds, if that does work, you will have to chage your settings in other applications
[05:30] <intelikey> lunitik a sound file would be better than /dev/urandom   ;/
[05:30] <ubuntu> ok, im so confused i can't find anything,lol, but I finally have run a live cd and connected to internet, can someone tell me link to how to save my live settings? im tired of searching.................
[05:30] <masterloki> man let me change to Gnome
[05:30] <lunitik> intelikey, you know where one is located?  cuz I can't be asked to go in search of one  :/
[05:31] <funkyHat> /usr/share/sounds/*
[05:31] <ubuntu> in others words, is thee a specefi app?
[05:31] <qt2> shouldnt using synaptic to install nvidia drivers automatically set up 3d acceleration?
[05:32] <funkyHat> qt2, there is an instruction in the description of the nvidia-glx package, did you follow it?
[05:32] <ShadowUB> Hi, I am trying the live install of Ubuntu and am having some problems
[05:32] <ShadowUB> can someone please help?
[05:32] <ubuntu> ok.............
[05:32] <paulproteus|lapt> ShadowUB: It's not a "live install", just a "live CD".
[05:32] <paulproteus|lapt> It doesn't install anythingl.
[05:32] <lunitik> ShadowUB, if you ask ... sure
[05:32] <ShadowUB> i meant live cd
[05:32] <paulproteus|lapt> !asktoask
[05:32] <ubotu> methinks asktoask is We'll never know what your question is unless you ask it.  Don't ask if you can ask; don't ask if we can answer a question - ask a question!
[05:32] <lunitik> ubuntu, welcome to IRC... /nick somethingelse
[05:32] <ubuntu> crap, i think im invissable
[05:32] <ShadowUB> ok say i try to play a file, i get an error to check if totem was installed correctly
[05:32] <ubuntu> lol
[05:32] <ShadowUB> and the same thing for almost all the other apps
[05:33] <ShadowUB> the only stuff that works is firefox and gimp, even gimp throws some errors
[05:33] <ShadowUB> is this normal or .. what am i doing wrong?
[05:33] <professor_chaos> ubuntu, why are you booting over and over to the live CD instead of installing???
[05:33] <ShadowUB> me? this is the first time ive ever tried ubuntu period
[05:33] <ShadowUB> i wanted to experience it a bit
[05:34] <Madpilot> ShadowUB: there's no mp3 support on the LiveCD, of that's what you're trying with Totem...
[05:34] <ShadowUB> but.. its not really working :)
[05:34] <professor_chaos> ubuntu, I don't really know the answer to you question, I didn't think anyone would want to do that?
[05:34] <ShadowUB> ah
[05:34] <lunitik> ShadowUB, thats not normal... however I'm not sure exactly what the issue would be...
[05:34] <ShadowUB> so mpg files wont play either, i gather
[05:34] <lunitik> ShadowUB, mdz would be the man to ask about all things livecd ... he maintains it ...
[05:34] <ShadowUB> gotcha
[05:34] <ShadowUB> i like the look of this distro and am going to set it up, just wanted to get a feel for it :)
[05:34] <lunitik> ShadowUB, the LiveCD doesn't include codecs etc... you can however grab them after install...
[05:35] <lunitik> ShadowUB, legally, Ubuntu cannot distribute these things... but others are kind enough to do so instead  :)
[05:35] <ShadowUB> i gotcha
[05:35] <ShadowUB> im impressed that it was able to read all my ntfs volumes
[05:35] <lunitik> ShadowUB, simularly, GIMP can't open some document types by default...
[05:35] <ShadowUB> and find my windows network without problems
[05:35] <ShadowUB> yep..
[05:36] <lunitik> ShadowUB, :)
[05:36] <ShadowUB> the errors i got with gimp.. uhh let me run it
[05:36] <ShadowUB> "failed to open file /usr/share/gimp/2.0/menus/toolbox-menu.xml"
[05:36] <ShadowUB> faled to open a bunch of other files.. but its running
[05:36] <masterloki> lunitik: Ok in the first option with pipeline alsasink I've got an error
[05:37] <lunitik> masterloki, whats it say?
[05:37] <Madpilot> ShadowUB: do all the GIMP toolboxes look like they're there?
[05:37] <ShadowUB> yes, Madpilot
[05:37] <masterloki> lunitik: can't not build testing pipeline fot ALSA
[05:37] <ShadowUB> trying the device manager, id like to see how much of my stuff it detected
[05:37] <lunitik> masterloki, blah... ls /dev/dsp  ... is it there?
[05:38] <masterloki> lunitik: nope
[05:38] <lunitik> masterloki, 'sudo pkill -HUP esd' if it is, and try again
[05:38] <lunitik> masterloki, ahh... lsmod | grep snd  ... you sure its there?
[05:39] <lunitik> masterloki, (the module - snd-via82xx)
[05:39] <masterloki> lunitik: The module is there
[05:39] <lunitik> masterloki, if its any consolation... I know Ubuntu works with it.. because thats what my other box uses  :)
[05:39] <Carpe_Libertatem> Hey - I need a distro reccomendation for a friend. It's a laptop with a P1 266mhz Chip, 2gb HDD, and 64 MB of RAM.
[05:40] <|Imp|> windows 95
[05:40] <masterloki> lunitik: I've killed esd now what
[05:40] <intelikey> lol
[05:40] <nalioth> Carpe_Libertatem: damn small linux
[05:40] <lunitik> masterloki, strange... 'dmesg | grep audio' return anything?
[05:40] <lunitik> masterloki, doesn't matter for now... your kernel isn't recognizing your sound...
[05:40] <masterloki> lunitik: Nothing
[05:40] <lunitik> s/sound/sound card/
[05:41] <ShadowUB> question..
[05:41] <phunkinaye> can i run ubuntu on atari 800?
[05:41] <masterloki> lunitik: Should I rebuild the kernel
[05:41] <intelikey> Carpe_Libertatem that will run any linux distro, if you like cli .   other wise.   go with the  95 sujestion
[05:41] <lunitik> masterloki,
[05:41] <lunitik> no
[05:41] <masterloki> lunitik
[05:41] <ShadowUB> i 'm missing a drive.. i have cdrom, E (USB) and an F (firewire) drive.. how do I access drives C and D: :)
[05:41] <lunitik> masterloki, wait... is it a custom kernel?
[05:41] <Carpe_Libertatem> It won't run anything with a GUI?
[05:41] <ShadowUB> two 120 gig drives.. any ideas?
[05:41] <masterloki> lunitik: Nope is the one packed
[05:42] <|Imp|> Carpe_Libertatem, nope
[05:42] <ShadowUB> they're ntfs formatted, jsut like the externals
[05:42] <|Imp|> too little ram
[05:42] <masterloki> lunitik: but I've got K7 AMD
[05:42] <lunitik> masterloki, ok... then no  :)
[05:42] <|Imp|> if you can get 256 ram into it
[05:42] <|Imp|> then you can run gui
[05:42] <lunitik> masterloki, same exact thing I used to have... very strange  ;(
[05:42] <nalioth> Carpe_Libertatem: try "damn small linux" you (and your friend) might be surprised
[05:42] <intelikey> Carpe_Libertatem it will run a linux GUI but you will be into swap space all the time and with that setup they will dever be pleased.
[05:42] <ShadowUB> nautilus doesnt work..
[05:43] <Carpe_Libertatem> Can DSL format a HDD and install itself onto it?
[05:43] <nalioth> Carpe_Libertatem: it is a live/installable distro all on one disk
[05:43] <nalioth> howdy tritium
[05:43] <Carpe_Libertatem> All right. I reccomended that earlier in passing, but I did not know if it could install itself or not. :-P
[05:43] <Carpe_Libertatem> Danke schoen.
[05:44] <tritium> hey nalioth :)
[05:44] <Chrustinho> does anyone know a fast audio cd ripper. I am using abcde, but i had some windows cd rippers which were much more faster...
[05:44] <iratsu> where can i fetch info about the CPU and motherboard i'm running?
[05:44] <bytefoo> it's actually schoene ;)
[05:44] <lunitik> masterloki, you have OSS modules loaded?
[05:44] <bytefoo> since you can't make an umlaut :o
[05:44] <nalioth> Chrustinho: try grip
[05:44] <masterloki> lunitik: dunno
[05:45] <nalioth> iratsu: at a terminal, type "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[05:45] <intelikey> pci card lunitik
[05:45] <Chrustinho> does grip rip faster than with the original speed (1x)?
[05:45] <masterloki> lunitik: how do I check
[05:45] <pepe> alright here goes again
[05:45] <lunitik> masterloki, lsmod | grep snd   .... anything stating 'snd_pcm_oss'?
[05:45] <pepe> I've been working on this for a while, and I still have no sound whatsoever
[05:45] <nalioth> Chrustinho: try it. also you can search in synaptic for "ripper" or look at freshmeat.net or sourceforge.net
[05:46] <ShadowUB> could someone help me access the missing drives on my system?
[05:46] <phunkinaye> hey, can anybody see me?
[05:46] <Madpilot> Chrustinho: Sound Juicer gets up to 2.7x for me...
[05:46] <pepe> actually
[05:46] <lunitik> phunkinaye, nope... sorry
[05:46] <phunkinaye> haha
[05:46] <phunkinaye> ok
[05:46] <masterloki> lunitik: snd_pcm_oss is emptu
[05:46] <masterloki> lunitik: snd_pcm_oss is empty
[05:46] <pepe> I give up, I'll just throw gentoo on this box, and that'll fix everything
[05:46] <deprave> .deb packages are auto packages right?
[05:46] <Chrustinho> nalioth: ok, i know, but perhaps someone had some experiences with a good and especially fast ripper
[05:46] <pepe> so much for giving Ubuntu a shot, geez
[05:46] <lunitik> masterloki, thats fine...
[05:46] <pprince_> Chrustinho: If you asking, does a CD ripping program read data from a CD faster than the length of time it takes to play the music on it, then yes.
[05:46] <bytefoo> :/
[05:46] <masterloki> lunitik: but snd_pcm has snd_pcm_oss
[05:46] <deprave> .deb packages are auto packages right?
[05:46] <lunitik> masterloki, its loaded... thats a good thing...
[05:47] <pprince_> pepe: haha, as a Gentoo and Ubuntu user I find your comment humorous.
[05:47] <deprave> .deb packages are auto packages right? or how do you go about installing them, dpkg -i?
[05:47] <Dragon513> a.. I just installed the new ATI Radeon driver and on the ATI control panel it says "transfer mode" is "PCI"
[05:47] <Dragon513> i use 9600
[05:47] <killapop> [OFF TOPIC]  sorry - is there any way to avoid getting spammed?
[05:47] <Dragon513> shouldn't it be AGP 8X?
[05:47] <lunitik> masterloki, bah.... enless intelikey has any better ideas... restart... Ubuntu really doesn't have any nice sound config tools  :/
[05:47] <bytefoo> look at the topic :|
[05:47] <paulproteus|lapt> killapop: Yes, see topic.
[05:47] <Guardian> whats with all the spammers
[05:47] <pepe> pprince: how come?
[05:47] <pprince_> deprave: They're best installed from the net, from an official Ubuntu repository, with Synaptic, aptitude, or apt-get.  They autoresolve dependencies.  Using dpkg like that is as bad as... rpm.
[05:48] <killapop> Ooops!!!
[05:48] <nalioth> Chrustinho: i can't remember the last time i ripped a cd, so won't be much help
[05:48] <masterloki> lunitik: is something for a to-do list
[05:48] <nalioth> deprave: .debs are not autopackages
[05:48] <bytefoo> i can't remember the last time I owned a cd :X
[05:48] <nalioth> killapop: see /topic
[05:48] <pepe> pprince: my two reasons thus far for not just installing gentoo on this are because emerging would take a while on this compy (it's pretty old), and I can't really teach my grandfather how to use gentoo -.-
[05:48] <Chrustinho> ok, thanks, folks :)
[05:48] <nalioth> Guardian: see /topic
[05:48] <lunitik> masterloki, indeed... someone really should work on porting Fedora's system-config-sound to Ubuntu... but I digress...
[05:49] <pprince_> pepe: I've yet to encounter a system Ubuntu didn't run perfectly on, but of course there are some.  What's your issue?
[05:49] <lunitik> masterloki, sometimes, rebooting fixes the sound... has here before (on that same configuration)
[05:49] <Guardian> thanks
[05:49] <stoeptegel> argh damn spammers (why do they even think i'am gone hit the url? :s)
[05:49] <pepe> my sound refuses to work... at all
[05:49] <pepe> which is strange because I'm on a VIA AC97, not some obscure sound card
[05:49] <pprince_> stoeptegel: It's a numbers game.  Apparently enough people do to make it worth the effort to spam.
[05:49] <nalioth> stoeptegel: see /topic for a barrier to them
[05:50] <masterloki> lunitik: I read the forums and rebooted several times, with the thing posted there but let give it a try
[05:50] <lunitik> tritium, not everyone is using IRSSI ... tell people about /mode <your_nick> +CE instead
[05:50] <pprince_> pepe: Do you see your sound hardware being detected in dmesg?
[05:50] <paulproteus|lapt> lunitik: /umode works for me in gaim, fwiw
[05:50] <bytefoo> someone should port HWD from archlinux to ubuntu :|
[05:50] <pepe> I haven't noticed that
[05:50] <pepe> lspci does detect it though
[05:50] <pepe> hm
[05:50] <lunitik> paulproteus|lapt, it doesn't work in XChat... so its not a valid mechanism...
[05:50] <pprince_> lspci shows all PCI devices, supported or not.
[05:50] <pprince_> pepe: ^^
[05:51] <paulproteus|lapt> brb, all
[05:51] <tritium> lunitik, it works in xchat too
[05:51] <lunitik> tritium, no, no it doesn't.
[05:51] <pepe> what should I grep to check that, then? O.o
[05:52] <tritium> lunitik, I'm using xchat, dude, and I did it...
[05:52] <pprince_> pepe: dmesg | grep recently after a reboot, or perhaps /var/log/dmesg
[05:52] <pepe> well yes, but what exactly do I grep? :P
[05:53] <pepe> dmesg | grep *?
[05:53] <lunitik> pprince_, uhhh... grepping for nothing?
[05:53] <pprince_> pepe: I would just read through it, or look for things like sound, 97, snd, etc
[05:53] <tritium> lunitik, make sure you're using capital letters ;)
[05:53] <pprince_> lunitik: I thought he meant what file/command output does he grep, not what fo.
[05:53] <masterloki> lunitik: Back and no sound :-\
[05:54] <pepe> anyways
[05:54] <pepe> I don't see it in there
[05:54] <lunitik> masterloki, I don't know what to tell you man... this is an ongoing issue with Ubuntu though... someone with the technical knowledge should do something about it...
[05:54] <pepe> how do I get it to load, then? heh
[05:54] <lunitik> masterloki, I have ran you through all the steps I take... and I always get sound to work.
[05:54] <funkyHat> lunitik, the issue is esd ;)
[05:54] <funkyHat> it's nice if it works (and if you can cope with the delay ;);))
[05:54] <lunitik> funkyHat, no... no its not... I'm using esd... and he killed esd  :/
[05:54] <pepe> sound really does seem to be a huge issue in Ubuntu, forum's swarming with posts, yet no solutions
[05:55] <intelikey> you can run any command from xchat that you can type in a command propmt.....      /exec <command>
[05:55] <deprave> how do i install a .deb file
[05:55] <lunitik> intelikey, /exec -o even lets us see it  ;)
[05:55] <pepe> well, when I try to change the sound output system to ALSA, it says it can't make a test pipeline to it...
[05:55] <intelikey> or any other irc client i've ever used
[05:55] <lunitik>  20:55:46 up  4:38,  2 users,  load average: 0.09, 0.11, 0.16
[05:55] <Madpilot> pepe: true - some of us where lucky enough to have it work out of the box, though. (AC/97 onboard sound, no problem at all...)
[05:55] <tritium> deprave, with dpkg -i
[05:55] <lunitik> haha @ that being weak... but yeah  :)
[05:55] <deprave> thanks thought so
[05:56] <intelikey> lunitik yeah i left the -o out on purpose
[05:56] <tritium> deprave, man dpkg for more info ;)
[05:56] <|Imp|> how can i use xnest to run two sessions at once?
[05:56] <masterloki> lunitik: let's see I've got VIA8235 card and snd-via82xx driver, alsamixer says PCM and Master are at 100%. Anything else??
[05:56] <lunitik> intelikey, its useless for seriously moronic users  ;)
[05:57] <lunitik> masterloki, dude... you don't have a /dev/dsp ... this means the kernel has no idea about how to control your soundcard...
[05:57] <lunitik> masterloki, it knows about it to some extent due to it (likely) showing up fine in lspci ... but alas, it can't do anything with it...
[05:57] <masterloki> lunitik: How do I set this up
[05:57] <|Imp|> how can i use xnest to run two sessions at once?
[05:58] <|Imp|> i want to use gdm from a nested window
[05:58] <lunitik> masterloki, grrr... it should be working... all your correct sound modules are loaded... idk what is wrong
[05:58] <pepe> I'm guessing there's no way to do a make menuconfig kernel edit to make sure everything's all set in the kernel for Ubuntu, is there?...
[05:58] <pepe> not without changing around tons of other settings that is
[05:58] <tritium> pepe, if you want to compile your own, you can do that...
[05:59] <pepe> I don't mind that ^^
[05:59] <Dreamer3> are changes to dev in ubuntu not sticky?
[05:59] <Bored1ed> hello all
[05:59] <intelikey> pepe masterloki you both need to "man modprobe"
[05:59] <|Imp|> hello?
[05:59] <tritium> |Imp|, is xnest installed?
[05:59] <lunitik> pepe, that won't do much... most you can do is compile the module into the actual kernel... but it won't fix the issue... the driver is loaded, and its not working
[05:59] <|Imp|> tritium, yup
[06:00] <lunitik> intelikey, the modules are loaded.
[06:00] <tritium> |Imp|, you should be able to open a new login in a nested window from Applications->System Tools
[06:00] <|Imp|> how do i reset gnome?
[06:00] <masterloki> intelikey: I have the proper drivers
[06:00] <bytefoo> ctrl+alt+backspace
[06:00] <lunitik> |Imp|, you log out and back in
[06:00] <bytefoo> or that :-/
[06:00] <Dreamer3> how do i make a changes to /dev/ stay in place?
[06:01] <pepe> very well, then what module should I modprobe? modprobe alsa?
[06:01] <lunitik> Dreamer3, what are you trying to do?    modules.conf  :/
[06:01] <Dreamer3> lunitik: the qemu install created an entry with certain permission in dev... and it's gone after a reboot
[06:02] <intelikey> Dreamer3 you script them and let the script run at startup or stop using udev  or edit udev.conf  or should i go on ?
[06:02] <pepe> oh interesting
[06:02] <melfyk> Imp: to restart the gui you press ctrl+alt+bkspace
[06:02] <pepe> apparently, I only have about 6 modules to be loaded at boot time
[06:02] <pepe> none of which have anything to do with sound...
[06:02] <Dreamer3> intelikey: hmmmm, is not using udev a valid option?
[06:02] <pepe> ...
[06:02] <lunitik> pepe, yeah... thats bad  ;)
[06:02] <lunitik> pepe, you know the correct module?
[06:03] <phunkinaye> "Sessions" is how I would save my current settings, correct?
[06:03] <pepe> no :-\
[06:03] <lunitik> pepe, what does lspci say about it?
[06:03] <masterloki> lunitk intelikey pepe, hold on I read that id you install alsa-oss it might wotk
[06:03] <pepe> 0000:00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
[06:03] <intelikey> yes but it will eliminate 'hotplug' also   thus usb devices will require mounting and unmounting ...    not the best of ideas...
[06:03] <tritium> intelikey, see /usr/share/doc/udev/README.Debian.gz
[06:04] <lunitik> pepe, haha... same thing as masterloki ;)
[06:04] <tritium> you can disable udev
[06:04] <pepe> :P
[06:04] <lunitik> pepe, modprobe snd-via82xx
[06:04] <masterloki> lunitk intelikey pepe, this won't work??
[06:04] <lunitik> masterloki, try it
[06:04] <masterloki> Ok

[06:05] <dreamie> what is the program to watch dvds in ubuntu?
[06:05] <|Imp|> hey, how do i get XDMCP chooser to work with xnest?
[06:05] <lunitik> pepe, is /dev/dsp there
[06:05] <paulproteus|lapt> lineage: Do:
[06:05] <lunitik> ?
[06:05] <pepe> alright, just double checking here, how do I check exactly what modules I have loaded again? I may have checked in the wrong place..
[06:05] <deprave> .j scribus
[06:05] <paulproteus|lapt> sudo chown -R area51.area51 /home/area51/
[06:05] <Carpe_Libertatem> dreamie: I use Xine, but you can use other programs.
[06:06] <lunitik> pepe, lsmod
[06:06] <pepe> yup, dsp exists, thankfully
[06:06] <paulproteus|lapt> Carpe_Libertatem: Good to see you back.
[06:06] <pepe> oh
[06:06] <lunitik> pepe, you want lsmod | grep snd though
[06:06] <pepe> there we go ^^
[06:06] <dreamie> Carpe_Libertatem , is that installed? or do i have to install it? where do i get it?
[06:06] <lineage> thanks paulproteus|lapt  i'll try
[06:06] <pepe> hmmm
[06:06] <lunitik> pepe, your sound should be ok then... try restarting GNOME and see if it makes any noise  :)
[06:06] <pepe> alright...
[06:06] <Bored1ed> how do u use xine?
[06:06] <Thread-x> gnite fellows.. im working with ubuntu . . and im getting this the keyboard and
[06:06] <Dreamer3> intelikey: so, i have to script changes?
[06:06] <Thread-x> > mouse buttons go haywire. Keys repeat like ccccccccccraaazzzzzzzzyyy and
[06:06] <Thread-x> > mouse button clicks register erratically. As a result, the desktop is
[06:06] <Thread-x> > unusable.
[06:06] <pepe> brb then
[06:06] <Carpe_Libertatem> dreamie: Not installed by default, you need to run a terminal and apt-get it, or use Synpatic. Type in Xine at the search.
[06:07] <lineage> nothing happens paulproteus|lapt
[06:07] <lunitik> pepe, if it does... type the module name in /etc/modules so you don't have to keep modprobing
[06:07] <lunitik> GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
[06:07] <lunitik> Dreamer3, bed time?
[06:08] <paulproteus|lapt> lineage: If it finished, try Cedega again.
[06:08] <ksmurf> hello all 2 questions.  First is there someway to uninstall the Official Driver for Nvidia.  2nd Is Nvidia-glx working?
[06:08] <ksmurf> for Breezy
[06:08] <dreamie> how do i create a password for root?
[06:09] <NoUse> !root
[06:09] <ubotu> I heard root is disabled in Ubuntu, you can read all about it on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[06:09] <Carpe_Libertatem> dreamie: You don't use root. Use sudo.
[06:09] <pprince_> dreamie: sudo passwd, but don't do it, as stated.
[06:09] <pprince_> dreamie: you can do anything with sudo you can do with root, and sudo -s is handy.
[06:09] <connorp> hi
[06:09] <carthik> dreamie, and if you are missing hte # prompt do sudo -s -H
[06:09] <tritium> or sudo -i
[06:09] <masterloki> lunitik, any progress
[06:10] <ksmurf> !nvidia breezy
[06:10] <ubotu> ksmurf: Syntax error in line 1
[06:10] <lunitik> masterloki, he hasn't come back yet  :/
[06:10] <connorp> im new to ubuntu..any tips for a new user?
[06:10] <ksmurf> !nvidia
[06:10] <ubotu> rumour has it, nvidia is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[06:10] <lunitik> masterloki, you install alsa-oss?
[06:10] <dreamie> i am in terminal and i want to install xine... how do i do this if it asks me for root
[06:10] <masterloki> lunitik, yep but didn't work
[06:10] <lunitik> dreamie, sudo apt-get install foo
[06:10] <intelikey> Dreamer3 the changes you make to /dev   'for what ever reason'  can all be saved to one file.  close your terminal and open one then edit .bash_history and save the exact commands that fixed your /dev/  to one file. (note remove any 'sudo' s )  save the fils as S99fix_dev  chmod the file 740  and put it in /etc/rcS.d    there you go can i do it for you ?
[06:10] <pepe> still no go on my sound system
[06:11] <paulproteus|lapt> lineage: Any luck?
[06:11] <lunitik> pepe, did you restart the system... or just GNOME?
[06:11] <pepe> the system
[06:11] <lineage> paulproteus|lapt,  nothing.
[06:11] <lunitik> pepe, bah
[06:11] <dreamie> can't find package
[06:11] <pepe> O.o
[06:11] <pepe> ooo
[06:11] <pepe> whoops? ^^
[06:11] <kelly_> please help... my modem does not work...
[06:11] <lineage> just one question, sudo chown -R area51.area51 /home/area51/ <- this is exactly for what ?
[06:11] <Dreamer3> intelikey: thanks, that's almost step by step :)
[06:11] <kelly_> i have tried all...option...
[06:11] <deprave> jesus the spam on this network is terrible
[06:11] <lunitik> pepe, sudo nano /etc/modules  ... and throw 'snd-via82xx' in there again
[06:11] <ksmurf> does nvidia glx work for breezy yet?
[06:12] <bytefoo> what can i use to burn .iso files :|
[06:12] <pepe> lsmod does say the snd_via82xx module is loaded though
[06:12] <Dreamer3> wow, are sex bots more active than usual?
[06:12] <pepe> it's there lol
[06:12] <pepe> it seems to be loading on startup anyways
[06:12] <lunitik> pepe, restarting will have put you in the same situartion again
[06:12] <carthik> Dreamer3, yeah -- full-moon -- horny bots.. the works....
[06:12] <pepe> I don't think I changed anything though...
[06:12] <Dreamer3> carthik: that sucks
[06:12] <lunitik> pepe, bah... its in lsmod ... but isn't working?
[06:12] <pepe> nope
[06:12] <bytefoo> alsamixer? :D
[06:12] <carthik> Dreamer try /umode +CE to bar them
[06:12] <lunitik> pepe, you mean yes?
[06:13] <intelikey> Dreamer3 if you really want it to be up to code,  start the file with "#!/bin/sh "   <--- that line without the quotes...
[06:13] <pepe> it's not working
[06:13] <pepe> I get no sound
[06:13] <lunitik> pepe, and /dev/dsp is still around?
[06:13] <pepe> the Volume Meter, though, seems to think there's sound coming out pretty much ok whenever I play a sound file
[06:13] <Dreamer3> intelikey: i know how to write a bash (or sh) script :-)
[06:13] <dreamie> is there another dvd viewer except xine?
[06:13] <lineage> just one question, paulproteus|lapt,  sudo chown -R area51.area51 /home/area51/ <- this is exactly for what ?
[06:13] <pepe> yup dsp still there
[06:13] <Dreamer3> intelikey: mostly i was just asking the repurcussions of ditching udev earlier
[06:13] <Dreamer3> lately seems like things i do in linux are harder
[06:14] <pepe> my volume meter bounces around happily whenever I play a sound file
[06:14] <bimberi> pepe: btw, don't forget to remove that "acpi_irq_isa=7" kernel option if it didn't work for you
[06:14] <pepe> but I'm getting no output
[06:14] <net_benjo> does someone know how to get a city code for Toronto, ON from the weather.com website?????i've just spent 30 min looking for the darn thing
[06:14] <pepe> ah yes
[06:14] <pepe> where was that again?...
[06:14] <dasreich> Hi
[06:14] <carthik> dreamie, there is totem and there is gmplayer

[06:14] <bimberi> pepe: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:14] <pepe> thanks
[06:14] <kelly_> im newbee...
[06:15] <dreamie> carthik, talking to me?
[06:15] <intelikey> major repercutions are no hotplug   and possably having to use 'sudo mount /blah '  a lot more.
[06:15] <dasreich> i just installed ubuntu and I enter my login/password and it hangs and i can move the mouse, anyone know whats up?
[06:15] <kelly_> can somebody look up...my scanmodem data... http://pastebin.com/349776 i can not pin point what is model..type or model... please.. im newbee....
[06:15] <net_benjo> anybody?? how do you find a code for your city for iWeather gdesklet???
[06:15] <blrich> can somone help? i can't get my onboard graphics card to be recognised by X
[06:15] <Dreamer3> yeah!
[06:15] <Dreamer3> my first DSL works :)
[06:15] <Dreamer3> almost
[06:16] <blrich> I have a gigabyte k8vm800m via chipset mobo, but the graphics isn't recognised by anything
[06:16] <puff> lunitik: Well, so reinstalling the linux-image package fixed the wireless module... until I suspended to disk and resumed, and it was back.
[06:16] <carthik> dreamie, you asked about dvd players, and i used your name/nick so yes i was talking to you, indeed
[06:16] <lunitik> Dreamer3, you're hosting a pppoe?
[06:16] <dreamie> carthik, how do i get those? i tried to apt-get install them but it doesnt work
[06:16] <Dreamer3> lunitik: no, building a package for damnsmall linux :)
[06:16] <blrich> can anyone help me?
[06:16] <carthik> dasreich,  sounds like a bad x.org set up....
[06:16] <puff> Reinstalling and rebooting again fixed it, then tested suspend-to-disk and resumed, problem's back. Reinstalled and rebooted, wireless is back and I got back online to ask for help :-(
[06:16] <pepe> hmmm
[06:16] <lunitik> Dreamer3, ohhh... you're leaving us?
[06:17] <pepe> maybe I should just try reinstalling the whole system?.....
[06:17] <carthik> dreamie, refer to http://ubuntuguide.org for step by step instructions.... ubuntuguide just has the instructions though.. things might still be unavailable etc... be forewarned :)
[06:17] <dasreich> carthik: how do I change this though I mean it didn't prompt me to really do anything
[06:17] <Dragon513> I"m getting errors from running :fgl_glxgears"
[06:17] <net_benjo> does anybody know how to find your city code for iWeather gdesklet, if you don't livein US????
[06:17] <lunitik> pepe, no harm in trying... chances are it'll work after...
[06:17] <NoUse> !ubuntuguide
[06:17] <ubotu> ubuntuguide is, like, a set of instructions with no explanation. Please do not advise people to use ubuntuguide.  Advise https://wiki.ubuntu.com instead. The official FAQ Guide will be released with Breezy, stay tuned.
[06:17] <deprave> anyone have success installing scribus 1.3 on ubuntu hoary-hedgehog yet?
[06:17] <Dreamer3> lunitik: hardly :)
[06:17] <lunitik> Dreamer3, kgood  :)
[06:17] <Dreamer3> lunitik: different distros for different purposes :)
[06:18] <net_benjo> iweather gdesklet? where is my city code located???????
[06:18] <dasreich> dreamer3: which is best if I don't know wtf im doing in linux but i want to play games?
[06:18] <lunitik> Dreamer3, hehe... I never got that concept... I just customize one distro for everything  :)
[06:18] <Madpilot> net_benjo: most of the world should be in the weather thing - search for your local airport
[06:18] <lunitik> dasreich, haha... SUSE comes with a lot of games... and is very easy to work with...
[06:18] <intelikey> kelly_  Modem: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS]  AC'97 Modem
[06:18] <net_benjo> Madpilot; thanks..i'll try that...
[06:18] <lineage> paulproteus|lapt, i made it! thanks man!
[06:18] <dasreich> no i mean like halflife2 i want to play halflife2
[06:19] <dasreich> in linux
[06:19] <lunitik> dasreich, if you're really into gaming though... should just stick to Windows.... it is by far the best gaming platform...
[06:19] <Dreamer3> dasreich: no idea, i do'nt play games
[06:19] <lineage> i am installing right now hl2
[06:19] <Dreamer3> lunitik: well, try, but some distros are closer to certain purposes than others...
[06:19] <kelly_> intelikey: thanks! does ubuntu support this?
[06:19] <Dreamer3> lunitik: as long as it's debian i'm in ;-)
[06:19] <lunitik> Dreamer3, ;)
[06:19] <carthik> dasreich, you can a) restart the x.org xserver by doing a ctrl+alt+backspace and see if that fixes it... else switch a prompt (ctrl+f1) and then do a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  to reconfigure the xserver after noting down the values for the refresh rates etc for the monitor...
[06:20] <lunitik> Dreamer3, there is a certain convenience with starting closer to where you want to be  ;)
[06:20] <bytefoo> god i'm done
[06:20] <carthik> dasreich, if you know what monitor it is, searching on google for the monitor name + ubuntu might be of some help too
[06:20] <bytefoo> dumb :|
[06:20] <dasreich> carthik: no keys actually work
[06:20] <bytefoo> i spent all day wondering why my wireless didn't work after I fixed everything up
[06:20] <lunitik> Dreamer3, damnsmall linux is a debian too?
[06:20] <dasreich> oh?
[06:20] <bytefoo> and i just realized its because i'm using a different kernel :|
[06:20] <masterloki> lunitik, GOD DAM IT I GOT IT
[06:20] <net_benjo> Madpilot: I found a code for toronto, but it doesnt work.......gdeskelt needs a different code
[06:20] <dasreich> thanks
[06:20] <lunitik> masterloki, enlighten pepe then please  :)
[06:21] <keith> i need a lot of help wit hteh synaptic package finder
[06:21] <keith> anythign i try to install from it or sudo apt-get install returns the same error
[06:21] <dasreich> I actually tried to boot in ubuntu live and it didnt work
[06:21] <keith> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update04_i386.deb:  files list file for package `kmix' is missing final newline
[06:21] <masterloki> lunitik, odd solution but I have sound now
[06:21] <dasreich> also
[06:21] <keith> i really need to install more stuff as i just reformatted but cant get around this problem
[06:21] <lunitik> masterloki, I'm sure thats all pepe will care about also  :)
[06:21] <masterloki> pepe, I have it
[06:21] <masterloki> pepe, do you read/speak spanish
[06:22] <masterloki> pepe, ??
[06:22] <keith> and y are the spammers so bad here now?
[06:22] <lunitik> masterloki, guess he doesn't want it that bad...
[06:22] <intelikey> kelly_ no but you can go back to http://pastebin.com/349776 and save lines 53 - 88 and read them.
[06:22] <lunitik> masterloki, use tab... he just left though
[06:22] <Madpilot> net_benjo: I don't use gdesklets, but the stock gnome weather thing (gWeather, I think) has lots and lots of Canadian weather stations
[06:22] <lunitik> masterloki, just type like 3 chars... then hit tab key... and voila, it autocompletes  :)
[06:22] <masterloki> lunitik, he is gone
[06:22] <intelikey> kelly_ best advice go to ebay and find a good hardware/fax modem  and install it.
[06:23] <masterloki> lunitik, do you read spanish??

[06:24] <dasreich> your guys robots are really annoying
[06:24] <lunitik> masterloki: what you say?
[06:24] <masterloki> intelikey, Well I have to put an english version of this link
[06:24] <masterloki> http://www.ubuntu-es.org/node/6878
[06:24] <Dr_Willis> wow - i see the spam bots are still about. :(
[06:24] <pprince_> girlfriend say!
[06:24] <Dr_Willis> what was that umode setting again - i forget.
[06:24] <pprince_> Dr_Willis: topic
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> there we go. :P i need to learn how to auto-set that
[06:25] <dasreich> i think i found an error in ubuntu
[06:25] <intelikey> yes there are many good hardware modems that can be used in laptops. kelly_ linux can use any hardware modem
[06:25] <frogtone25> hey someone one named KiDXe is spamming on here
[06:25] <frogtone25> thought i would let you guys know
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> frogtone25,  /umode +CE
[06:25] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:25] <lunitik> hmm... it doesn't appear to be... anyone know how to get XChat to auto complete correctly? (ie, if I type 'd' it would return dasreich because he was the last username starting with d to say anything...
[06:26] <douglas>  I'm trying to compile ogre3d and I found a guide for ubuntu/kubuntu, but now I'm to the point where I'm running ./configure and it keeps giving me this error http://rafb.net/paste/results/ksmu1H85.html ... Can someone help, I don't know what they mean?
[06:26] <nalioth> frogtone25: see /topic
[06:26] <lunitik> )
[06:26] <intelikey> frogtone25 read the topic please
[06:26] <Dr_Willis> spam about the spam! :p
[06:26] <Dr_Willis> what is this Dalnet? heh heh.
[06:26] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: great idea  :)
[06:26] <intelikey> lol
[06:26] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: looks like its getting close  :(
[06:26] <kelly_> intelikey: so you mean..this can be done? i can install this internal modem of my laptop?
[06:26] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: lilo is working on something to try to limit this crap though...
[06:26] <dasreich> how do I boot ubuntu into graphical mode with a standard video driver and stuff?
[06:27] <paulproteus|lapt> lineage: It said you had permissions problems.
[06:27] <lunitik> dasreich: this is default action... if you mean 'how do I get a graphical installer' you don't
[06:27] <paulproteus|lapt> chown changes the ownership of files to you.
[06:27] <dasreich> no no no how do i go to safe mode
[06:28] <dasreich> or equivalent
[06:28] <Dr_Willis> lunitik,  i wish him the best of luck. when on dalnet - i just ended up blocking all msgs from everyone sadly,.
[06:28] <intelikey> i don't know what interface you plan to use but kelly_ yes,  a hardware modem that will plug into the computer you want to use it on will work.
[06:28] <dasreich> when im not loggeed in yet
[06:28] <intelikey> dasreich init 1
[06:28] <lunitik> dasreich: hit ESC during boot as prompted... and choose 'failsafe'...
[06:28] <brett> Can someone tell me how I can change thepassword for Sudo?
[06:28] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: +CE appears to be working for me...
[06:28] <dasreich> ok i get the main gui screen right, and i click session to change it but when i change it to gui failsafe it freezes
[06:28] <lunitik> brett: its your users password... change your users passwrod
[06:28] <lunitik> word
[06:29] <intelikey> dasreich init 1  <---- the linux safe mode persi   but that is not what you want....
[06:29] <Dr_Willis> lunitik,  yea - that does seem to work.. wonder if the server could just force that to be the default on everyone.
[06:29] <Madpilot> !tell brett about sudo
[06:29] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: it could... but I'm not sure how willing lilo is to do that...
[06:29] <ksmurf> is there a way to unistall the Nvidia driver?
[06:29] <dasreich> init 1, whats the key combo for that?
[06:29] <Carpe_Libertatem> How would I update GAIM through apt-get? sudo apt-get update gaim ?
[06:30] <brett> Thanks.  No I'm in breezy and installed through nvidia
[06:33] <Dr_Willis> dasreich,  sounds fairly standard.. I have identical video card. You using the default install drivers/X config for your video card?
[06:34] <dasreich> yeah
[06:34] <lunitik> ksmurf: then see if they have any intructions on removing :/
[06:34] <Thread-x> anyone knows how to fix this problem with ubuntu,, that makes yr keyboard repeat the letters and the mouse flickers. makiing the desktop unusable
[06:34] <dasreich> it didnt prompt me for any driver installs
[06:34] <ksmurf> K... next question .  Is nvidia glx working for breezy yet?
[06:34] <Dr_Willis> there are the 'official' nvidia drivers that may help you out. plus you will get 3d acell and otehr stuff.
[06:34] <keith> anyone here? ive tried everything and this problem is still kicking my butt
[06:34] <lunitik> ksmurf: you really should have waited for breezy to be released... using proprietary hardware on betaware is rarely a good idea...
[06:34] <dabar> keith: we are here, yes.
[06:35] <dabar> all the people you see posting, are here.
[06:35] <dasreich> sounds fine but how do i install them if i cant log in?
[06:35] <ksmurf> lunitik..... no one said I was smart
[06:35] <bytefoo> how can i burn an iso
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> boot to the console.
[06:35] <lunitik> keith: doubtful you've tried everything... what is your issue?
[06:35] <keith> why do ikeep getting spammed so badly with porn?
[06:35] <keith> at least in this irc channel
[06:35] <dabar> Dr_Willis: or just alt+ctrl+fNum
[06:35] <lunitik> ksmurf: hahah  :)
[06:35] <dasreich> damn
[06:35] <Dr_Willis> could try installing some alterantive window managers  and try changing to them, to see if its a gnome issue.
[06:35] <keith> lunitik, thanks for offering hte help
[06:35] <keith> heres my issue
[06:35] <ksmurf> keith read the topic
[06:35] <dasreich> I don't know anything about linux
[06:35] <lunitik> keith: /umode +CE
[06:36] <dabar> keith, that is fixable for the spam.
[06:36] <keith> k well heres my current issue
[06:36] <lunitik> dasreich: such things needn't be stated... its rather obvious  ;)
[06:36] <Dr_Willis> with linux - it pays to read, and learn, and learn how to learn. :P
[06:36] <keith> i go into synaptic and go to install something, anything. it started when i went to install sun-jre2
[06:36] <dasreich> im not talking to you
[06:36] <ksmurf> lunitik ..... Not bad for a noob huh....
[06:36] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: mostly the last one... cuz then you don't have to read all the time  :)
[06:36] <keith> gimme just a sec ill get the exact error
[06:36] <keith> that popsu p
[06:36] <keith> no matter what i install
[06:36] <dabar> ok, you have 5..:P
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> lunitik,  they all sort of go togeher.. like Pickles and Ice Cream.
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:37] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: reading man pages is a skill  :D
[06:37] <dasreich> yeah so i can learn how to set my internet connection up, download the drivers, and install them
[06:37] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: wait... pickles and icecream?
[06:37] <keith> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update04_i386.deb:  files list file for package `kmix' is missing final newline
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> lunitik,  :P
[06:37] <keith> and it refuses to install or remove or upgrade ANYTHINg cause of that
[06:37] <Dr_Willis> Pickles go with everything!
[06:37] <dabar> dasreich: its fairly easy to get any internet connection up, other than dial up, and that should be easy too.
[06:38] <lunitik> keith: where did you get that package?
[06:38] <keith> which package
[06:38] <lunitik> keith: get it from hoary extras
[06:38] <keith> i did
[06:38] <lunitik> keith: sun-j2re1.5
[06:38] <keith> it doesnt matter what i install lunitik
[06:38] <lunitik> keith: strange... worked here...
[06:38] <ksmurf> Is nvidia glx working for breezy yet from Synaptic or apt-get??
[06:38] <keith> sun-j2re1.5
[06:38] <keith> or frozen bubbles
[06:38] <dabar> keith: why dont you: /join #flood, then, /exec -o cat /etc/apt/sources.list to start.
[06:38] <keith> ok
[06:39] <dabar> the second one is for #flood, not here.
[06:39] <dasreich> how do i change the driver for the vid card? is there a command?
[06:39] <masterloki> lunitik intelikey, keep this link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=324678#post324678
[06:39] <dabar> dasreich: read the URL ubotu tells you.
[06:39] <lunitik> keith: it doesn't say anything about an apt command?
[06:39] <Dr_Willis> !nvidia
[06:39] <ubotu> nvidia is, like, totally, at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia
[06:39] <ksmurf> dasreich ... what card
[06:39] <intelikey> keith sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update04_i386.deb
[06:39] <dasreich> thanks
[06:40] <dabar> welcome, that should start you.
[06:40] <lunitik> keith: 'sudo apt-get -f install' (run this on its own)
[06:40] <keith> hold on trying what intel said first
[06:40] <cajun> how can i view Windows Media Player content from webpages on Firefox using ubuntu?
[06:40] <lunitik> keith: may take a while... but should fix it
[06:40] <keith> ok intelikey it should work now after doing that?
[06:40] <Dr_Willis> cajun,  mplayer, or xine can do most of them when set up right.. vlc perhaps can also.
[06:41] <intelikey> try it
[06:41] <lunitik> intelikey: that fixed an issue I had yesturday  :)
[06:41] <NoUse> cajun apt-get install mozilla-mplayer

[06:42] <lunitik> intelikey: I don't understand why that works though... you know? or you just know to do it?
[06:42] <keith> one sec
[06:42] <keith>  i think i froze the package manager
[06:42] <keith> i got an error again
[06:42] <cajun> is freenode.net a spam server or sometrhing?
[06:43] <lunitik> keith: that doesn't help us... tell us the error

[06:44] <Dr_Willis> cajun,  Cool! :P
[06:44] <cajun> i read the topic
[06:44] <cajun> it tells me nothing
[06:44] <Dr_Willis> heh - "To prevent spam........"
[06:45] <cajun> ok  didn't see that last part
[06:45] <cajun> thanks
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> we going to have to set the bot to spam people about the spam? :P
[06:45] <intelikey> cajun you're not the only one ..... :)
[06:45] <dabar> Dr_Willis: you can set the bots?;O
[06:45] <Dr_Willis> the topic is so long. part of that msg scrolls past so i dident see it at first.
[06:46] <keith> doing apt-get -f install now intelikey
[06:46] <Dr_Willis> dabar,  im lucky to set my alarm clock. :P
[06:46] <dabar> keith, there is also http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl to paste.
[06:47] <Ice9> can somebody walk me through how to get 3d acceleration going with my ati radeon 9250?
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> !ati
[06:48] <ubotu> ati is, like, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:48] <tritium> nalioth, what's new?
[06:48] <^thehatsrule^> :)
[06:48] <Dr_Willis> it was fairly trivial last i did it Ice9  - i just followed those docs.
[06:48] <hector_acosta> umode +CE
[06:48] <Ice9> Dr_Willis, I've tried that, it seems like I've tried everything
[06:48] <keith> damn still not working
[06:49] <omp342> hi guys :)
[06:49] <keith> intelikey, what does apt-get -f install do?
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> Ice9,  bummer. Id had issues with ati and some machines in the past due to Motherboard  and other chipset issues..  last i tried with my ati9700 - it took me just a few min to get it working under Ubuntu. i was amazed
[06:49] <Dr_Willis> :P
[06:49] <intelikey> keith "man apt-get"
[06:50] <keith> wait apt-get -f install or man apt-get
[06:50] <keith> ?
[06:50] <frogtone25> type this line into your dialog box, but leave out the ''()", (/umode +CE)
[06:50] <keith> o wait nm
[06:50] <keith> i get it now
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> man man
[06:50] <keith> no intelikey i get the same error when i do it that way too
[06:50] <frogtone25> and that will get rid of the bots
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> frogtone25,  well it will ignore the bots. :P
[06:50] <intelikey> keith "man man"
[06:50] <Dr_Willis> man woman
[06:50] <frogtone25> yeah
[06:50] <frogtone25> man man
[06:50] <Ether7> is there a quick and painless way to send a bunch of files between two linux machines (i have access to root on both machines, and they are on the same lan)?
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> Ether7,  scp is designed to do that.
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> fairly quick and painless. :P
[06:51] <Dr_Willis> i alwyas screw up the syntax the first 4 times.
[06:51] <intelikey> ether7 'man rsync '
[06:51] <Ether7> dr_willis well i've been trying that for a while now, but i cant get the rsa keypairs to work correctly.. (?)
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> Hmm i thought they could auto-add the keys some how.. I forget now.
[06:52] <Ether7> dr: i'm not that familiar with ssh though so it probably me
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> ssh - is one of those tools tahts well worth spending the time to learn all the ins and outs of.
[06:52] <Dr_Willis> its soo handy in so many ways.
[06:52] <dabar> intelikey: what do you mean, man man...:-/
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> 'man man' would show the man pages for the 'man' command.
[06:53] <intelikey> type that in a terminal   'man man'
[06:53] <Dr_Willis> :P like reading a book on how to read.
[06:53] <MrDaBomb> I'm having problems with runit - specifically somehow I've got /var/service trying to be run, and it can't, getting "supervise/lock": http://rafb.net/paste/results/anNDUy74.html Anyone have any ideas?
[06:53] <Ice9> I guess I really want to know, how can I get it using the fglrx driver or whatever, when I fglrxinfo, it lists mesa opengl stuff
[06:54] <intelikey> catuall more like reading a book on how to open another book and turn the pages of it.
[06:56] <dionysus> is anyone able to tell me what gamin/gam_server is, and why it's keeping my CD tied up (according to lsof) so I can't umount/eject it?
[06:57] <Ice9> I guess I really want to know, how can I get it using the fglrx driver or whatever, when I fglrxinfo, it lists mesa opengl stuff
[06:57] <intelikey> me has began to firmly believe that all installers should open with "man man" and have an exit code that you must type to escape that man page.  (the code line about 2/3 of the way down....)
[06:58] <lunitik> intelikey: you've lived in #debian too long, my friend  ;)
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> lol..
[06:58] <intelikey> one week
[06:58] <intelikey> ?
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> a "test" one must pass befor the installer will continue...
[06:58] <lunitik> intelikey: that'll do it
[06:58] <intelikey> lol
[06:58] <Dr_Willis> show the docs..  quiz the user afterwards.
[06:59] <simon^> can help me
[06:59] <simon^> how to disable this line
[06:59] <simon^> You are connected through proxy : 1.1
[06:59] <simon^> (squid/2.5.STABLE1) at
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> humans run  a kernel? wow.
[06:59] <Dr_Willis> :P
[07:00] <simon^> ?
[07:00] <simon^> anyone'
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> Nothing like catchy marketing terms. :P
[07:00] <Carpe_Libertatem> How do I cd to a directory with a space in it?
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> simon^,  where are ya getting that from ?
[07:00] <deprave> cd "name here"
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> cd "foo bar"
[07:00] <Carpe_Libertatem> ah
[07:00] <Carpe_Libertatem> ok
[07:00] <dionysus> Carpe_Libertatem, use '\' to escape the space
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> cd "wow                                            man"
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> :P
[07:00] <dionysus> or wrapping '"' 's I guess heh :)
[07:00] <Dr_Willis> or use single quotes '   '
[07:00] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: Linux is not known to be a kernel in the mainstream...
[07:00] <simon^> Dr_Willis i'm test my proxy and connect to proxyblind.org
[07:00] <simon^> how to remove that line
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> lunitik,  ive had to explain to dozens of peopel that linux is NOT a company :P they cant seem to understand it.
[07:01] <simon^> i mean to hidden my squid from tha
[07:01] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: look at all the 'Linux vs Windows' stuff online... very warped reality...
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> simon^,  proberly can tell the proxy server to not give out that info.
[07:01] <Dr_Willis> lunitik,  yea  :P OS wars are always warped.
[07:01] <intelikey> lunitik that's an interesting way to look at it.      seems a monkey not being able to read could not then install ubunu so it would be more "for human beings" than ever.   now  any chimp or chump can install it.  they just cant run it.....
[07:02] <simon^> lol
[07:02] <simon^> how to set squid.conf for that ?
[07:02] <lunitik> intelikey: grrr... seriously... pkill -9 debianized_thinking  :|
[07:02] <simon^> can anyone help me
[07:03] <lunitik> intelikey: Debian is for zealots
[07:03] <intelikey> seriously it is mdk'ized think i guess....
[07:03] <Ice9> I guess I really want to know, how can I get it using the fglrx driver or whatever, when I fglrxinfo, it lists mesa opengl stuff
[07:03] <Dr_Willis> well read the conf file would be a start simon^  :P and the squid docs perhaps. since thats what id have to do ti answer you. Lol.
[07:03] <Dr_Willis> it may be some very well commented section/option.
[07:04] <lunitik> intelikey: please refrain from disrespecting any distro... especially not one that hires a substantial amount of open source developers... thanks
[07:04] <simon^> Thanks for your help Dr_Willis
[07:04] <Dr_Willis> im checking my system at that proxy site you posted Lol. :P
[07:04] <chrismy> yo yall
[07:04] <dabar> heya
[07:04] <chrismy> how are  you dabar:D
[07:04] <intelikey> lunitik take a powder.    i didn't disrespect any thing.
[07:05] <dabar> all right. I have an issue, and its not ubuntu related, and I dont have anyone atm to talk about that to.
[07:05] <DjKritical> Does it matter which order you istall winee and nvidia drivers?
[07:05] <chrismy> dabar: what is that issue of yours?
[07:05] <dabar> DjKritical: not really.
[07:05] <lunitik> intelikey: you insinuated that Mandriva is for morons... guess what? Mandriva and Ubuntu target the same audiance...
[07:05] <dabar> chrismy: join #ubuntu-offtopic, Ill tell you.
[07:06] <chrismy> :O mandriva is for morons?????????
[07:06] <dabar> why is that chrismy?
[07:06] <DjKritical> win32 is for morons :p
[07:06] <Dr_Willis> Paying Tax's is for Morons. :P
 intelikey: you insinuated that Mandriva is for morons... <--- wrong  i said my thinking was based on mdk not deb now get a grip.
[07:06] <Dr_Willis> but  i perfer to stay out of Jail.
[07:06] <tritium> no need for all that, guys...
[07:06] <lunitik> Dr_Willis: + people that dislike federal prison   ;)
[07:07] <DjKritical> You can't go to prison over here for not paying taxes :D
[07:07] <lunitik> DjKritical: over where?
[07:07] <DjKritical> New Zealand
[07:08] <rob^> fish and chips
[07:08] <DjKritical> Unless it's Tax Evasion
[07:08] <lunitik> DjKritical: Tax Evasion = Not Paying Taxes
[07:08] <Luna-Tick> A lunitik? How... odd
[07:08] <black_13> does ubuntu have cdebootstrap
[07:09] <Dr_Willis> lunitik,  iseent that where they raise lots and lots of sheep? :P
[07:09] <benplaut> testing to see if spambot responds to my typing... 1234...
[07:09] <lunitik> Luna-Tick: you copied my idea  :|
[07:09] <Luna-Tick> I doubt that, somehow...
[07:09] <Luna-Tick> I started using this at 12
[07:09] <Luna-Tick> :D
[07:09] <Luna-Tick> And BTW, there aren't *that* many sheep in NZ ;)
[07:09] <DjKritical> Luna-Tick, over here there is a difference between not being able to pay your tax and trying to lie about how much you owe
[07:10] <lunitik> Luna-Tick: about 4 years of use here... although, mine is after a Luniz (RE: "I got five on it") CD...
[07:10] <DjKritical> One is tax-evasion and the other is debt collection
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> lol.
[07:10] <Dr_Willis> Lamb - the Other Yellow Meat!
[07:10] <Luna-Tick> I'm trying to figure how tax evasion became the topic in an Ubuntu room...
[07:10] <intelikey> black_13 yes
[07:11] <Dr_Willis> Luna-Tick,  everyone needs a Hobby.
[07:11] <lunitik> Luna-Tick: we all are... heh... he meant to send that to me though  ;)
[07:11] <black_13> intelikey good
[07:11] <Luna-Tick> Tax evasion... what a hobby...
[07:11] <black_13> hobby of the rich
[07:12] <black_13> intelikey have you used it ?
[07:12] <intelikey> black_13 remember this command  "apt-cache search <name>"  you can check things like that for your self
[07:12] <Luna-Tick> No no no..
[07:12] <intelikey> black_13 no
[07:12] <Luna-Tick> Tax evasion is illegal - it is 'tax minimisation' ;)
[07:12] <dionysus> anyone have any idea what gam/gam_server is, or why it keeps grabbing my CD drive, preventing me from umounting/ejecting, or why it keeps respawning when i kill it?
[07:13] <black_13> intelikey my ubuntu system is occupied in building something
[07:13] <NoUse> dionysus its a file monitoring system
[07:13] <intelikey> so you knew how to search  just couldn't atm    k
[07:13] <dionysus> NoUse, ah ok....any ideas on how to kill it off permanently so I can actually switch cds :) ?
[07:14] <black_13> partially i know debian had it i didnt know if ubuntu had it
[07:15] <Luna-Tick> I have a crazy problem for everyone: I wanted to upgrade to the new beta2 of Openoffice.org so downloaded the new archive, aliened all the rpms, dpkg installed them and everything works fine except for writer - which may as well not be installed. Trying to open writer opens calc, and writer isn't in the 'new' dropdown or anything. The odd thing is that uninstalling that and going back to 122 (which worked fine yesterday) now has the same problem. Any i
[07:15] <NoUse> dionysus doesn't gnome take care of that when you eject the disc through gnome?
[07:15] <dabar> Luna-Tick: there is packages for that in our repos.
[07:15] <Luna-Tick> Which repos?
[07:16] <dabar> !find openoffice2
[07:16] <dabar> !ubotu
[07:16] <ubotu> Thaaat's me! I'm a bot, not a human. I'm sometimes the most coherent poster on #ubuntu! For more, ask me about "add". You can browse my brain on http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:16] <Luna-Tick> That is only a really old version
[07:16] <Ice9> I guess I really want to know, how can I get it using the fglrx driver or whatever, when I fglrxinfo, it lists mesa opengl stuff
[07:16] <dionysus> NoUse, actually running a bastardized kde-on-ubuntu system, which is probably half my problem i guess :/
[07:16] <ubotu> Ubuntu Search of 'openoffice2' (1 shown): (/etc/openoffice2) in universe/editors/openoffice.org2-debian-files.
[07:16] <dabar> oh, ok.
[07:17] <Luna-Tick> The version is old and _really_ buggy
[07:17] <Luna-Tick> so I wanted to upgrade it, which worked really well until today.
[07:17] <intelikey> Luna-Tick possably rm -rf $HOME/.oo* (or what ever the dir is.   and start it without any rc files.
[07:17] <NoUse> dionysus you might try removing it
[07:17] <NoUse> dionysus idk
[07:17] <Juhaz> gnome doesn't really take care of it anyway, gam just doesn't use the mointoring method that requires open files for the mountpoints of /media
[07:18] <black_13> intelikey so far all i see are configs for hoary or warty on sid etch so forth
[07:18] <dionysus> NoUse, hmm....apt-get removing gamin will take a little over half my system with it :/ think I'll pass
[07:19] <Luna-Tick> intelikey - I did complete removals in between the installs
[07:19] <dionysus> NoUse, ah well....been meaning to install a proper kubuntu system anyhow, guess I'll just wait a couple more weeks till my internet quota is reset and do that :/
[07:19] <chrismy> hey who remembers me?

[07:28] <ubotu> well, ntfs is the (N)(T) (F)ile(S)ystem, the filesystem normally used under Windows XP.  To automatically mount your NTFS partition/s, you can use this utility: http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/files/winmac_fstab . It handles HFS+, NTFS and FAT32 partitions.

[07:29] <ubotu> Thaaat's me! I'm a bot, not a human. I'm sometimes the most coherent poster on #ubuntu! For more, ask me about "add". You can browse my brain on http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[07:29] <brett> My accountpasswd is different from the Sudo passwd
