[08:50] <nothlit> shwag, ~/.thumbnails
[08:51] <jku_> ok...
[08:51] <nothlit> shwag, they are stored forever at 128x128 according to the freedesktop specifications
[08:51] <jerp> sasa, that's your North American link, find 6.10 and a location near you and go to town,  "Other Installation Options" is the amd 64 dl
[08:51] <sasa> jerp one last question, sincei installed linux i no longer see theoption of booting in my other hdd that has windows hwo do i go about that?
[08:52] <nothlit> shwag, they are created when an application with a thumbnailing feature comes across one and automatically thumbnails it
[08:52] <sasa> thanks
[08:52] <meener> does 6.10 edgy contain X.org 7.1?
[08:52] <jerp> sasa, come back and we'll deal with that soon enough if it doesn't see it by itself
[08:52] <lebafar> Hey does anyone here know how do I get access in a channel I need to be identified please ?
[08:52] <shwag> nothlit: yah, i want to automate it so I can just sit down and have all of them created in my hundreds of image folders...rather then having to click on each dir and wait.
[08:52] <nothlit> sasa sudo nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst               then you put the hard drive and partition (they start at 0 ) root (hdx,x)   newline chainloader +1 newline boot
[08:53] <bruenig> !xserver-xorg
[08:53] <ubotu> xserver-xorg: the X.Org X server. In component main, is optional. Version 1:7.1.1ubuntu6 (edgy), package size 164 kB, installed size 584 kB
[08:53] <bruenig> meener, looks like it
[08:53] <sasa> nonhlit i enter thatintotermianl as is
[08:53] <Roconda> !jp
[08:53] <ubotu>  #ubuntu-jp  #kubuntu-jp
[08:53] <ivx> princemackenzie, oh I just read that that mother board support am2
[08:53] <nothlit> shwag, fspot might automatically create them if you add the folders to the catalog
[08:53] <Kr0ntab> meener, yes...
[08:53] <Skyrail> If a program isn't responding what so ever and won't close, how do I force quit it?
[08:53] <Kleggas> has anyone managed to get an realtek soundcard to work properly under edgy when installing fglrx drivers, or is it only possible to have the mic and 7.1 sound work if you skip having any 3d rendering?
[08:53] <meener> thanks bruenig \ ubotu
[08:53] <bruenig> Skyrail, killall processname
[08:54] <nothlit> shwag, just MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE you untick the make copy of to folder option before you select any folders
[08:54] <Tominator> hmmm... the reinstallation of the older nvidia-glx doesn't work... i had to uninstall it... are there new beta drivers wich are much more stable than the last ones?

[08:54] <Skyrail> bruenig: do you know the process name for the add remove programs dialogue thing?
[08:54] <nothlit> gnome-app-install
[08:54] <bruenig> Skyrail, or on xubuntu you can just do control alt escape and click on it with the mouse
[08:54] <nothlit> skyrail ^
 gnome-app-install
[08:54] <Skyrail> nothlit: ok thanks
[08:54] <nothlit> bruenig, ...ehm?
[08:55] <Skyrail> bruenig: I'm on ubuntu, although I wouldn't mind trying out other versions lol
[08:55] <nothlit> Skyrail, fluxbox is great :)
[08:55] <Skyrail> nothlit: fluxbox?
[08:55] <nothlit> Skyrail, alternative window manager, has tabs
[08:56] <glatzor> Skyrail: the process name is python BLABL gnome-app-install
[08:56] <bruenig> no difference between tabs and the desktop switcher, except the desktop switcher doesn't call itself tabs
[08:56] <Skyrail> glatzor: I ended it with just gnome-app-install
[08:56] <noelferreira> jrib: it is taking to much time in paste bin
[08:56] <noelferreira> but i got no debugging symbols found from output jrib
[08:56] <jrib> noelferreira: use http://www.rafb.net/paste/  (see the /topic)
[08:56] <nothlit> Skyrail, not a desktop environment but a window manager, you have to chain things together to get the same functionality if you want things like automounting and desktop icons, things like idesk and gnome-volume-manager and whatnot
[08:57] <jrib> noelferreira: I mean the line about shared libraries, paste that and everything around it
[08:57] <nothlit> Skyrail, but if you're comfortable with the command line you don't need a desktop environment per say
[08:57] <bruenig> Skyrail, gnome-app-install is terrible anyways. I would just uninstall it
[08:57] <glatzor> bruenig: may I ask why?
[08:57] <nothlit> bruenig, theres a big difference in tabs and pagers/desktops for me
[08:58] <Skyrail> bruenig: I find it easier to just find some programs in there when I'm in a hurry or just interested ;)
[08:58] <bruenig> it is so extremely slow
[08:58] <nothlit> i think uninstalling gnome-app-install would break ubuntu-desktop
[08:58] <bruenig> nothlit, it uninstall ubuntu-desktop, doesn't "break" it whatever that means
[08:58] <flitoray> how do i find out my lan IP address?
[08:58] <nothlit> its easier to find programs with apt-cache or aptitude searching
[08:58] <noelferreira> jrib: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/kywJrh65.html
[08:58] <meener> I see in system tools an optional binary X.org driver for nVidia cards - is there something similar I need to my VIA CLE266?
[08:58] <Skyrail> nothlit: I'm fine with using the command line if I know what to do, I use it alot now that I have this PC set up as a mini server
[08:58] <glatzor> bruenig: what do you miss in gnome-app-install?
[08:59] <nothlit> bruenig, but ubuntu-desktop is an important tool for upgrades people shouldn't really uninstall it unless they know what they're doing/remember to re-add it
[08:59] <jrib> noelferreira: I don't see the line about shared libraries that you mentioned, where idd you see it?
[08:59] <Skyrail> nothlit: If I'm looking for a xhtml/css editing application lets say its just quick and easy to try one and uninstall it using that manager as it tells me what it is and what it does lol
[09:00] <glatzor> nothlit: people should use the dist-upgrade tool of Ubuntu, that ensures that ubuntu-desktop will be installed after upgrading
[09:00] <bruenig> glatzor, what do I miss? I don't miss anything from gnome-app-install. apt-cache search is far better.
[09:00] <noelferreira> jrib: if i typq q and then return after that
[09:00] <jrib> noelferreira: k, can you pastebin that as well?
[09:00] <nothlit> glatzor, ahh k
[09:00] <glatzor> bruenig: I just wondered, since you called it a terrible application
[09:00] <noelferreira> ok
[09:00] <bruenig> although once I get the system all setup the times I install anything is so small. Maybe a package a week
[09:00] <bruenig> terrible is relative, in this case relative to apt-cache search
[09:01] <flitoray> Could someone please tell me how to find out my LAN ip address through the terminal?
[09:01] <dsnyders> flitoray, ifconfig
[09:01] <noelferreira> jrib: http://www.rafb.net/paste/results/R9dpwj58.html
[09:01] <flitoray> dsnyders: thanks
[09:01] <nothlit> Skyrail, bluefish
[09:02] <flitoray> dsnyders: is it the inet addr, or bcast?
[09:02] <glatzor> nothlit: furthermore we introduced soft dependencies in edgy. so you will soon be able to uninstall parts of ubuntu-desktop dependencies without removing it
[09:02] <Spant[AT] DH> How can I change the page from vertical to horizontal in OpenOffice Writer? I can't find it and I need it now.
[09:02] <jrib> noelferreira: oh I see.  Hmm, not really sure what is going on as we can't get any good info.  When you type 'firefox' normally, does it return you to a new prompt or does it keep the terminal?
[09:02] <dsnyders> flitoray, It should give you both.
[09:02] <noelferreira> keep the terminal jrib
[09:02] <nothlit> glatzor, thats incredibly awesome
[09:02] <flitoray> dsnyders: yah it does, but im trying to set up port forwarding, which one is my local one for the router config
[09:02] <lzap> I have my machine (4x CPU P2) really slow when I boot to smp, in single its speed is okay
[09:03] <edgarin> Helo I have a problem I can't write a disc with NAUTILUS and K3B
[09:03] <nothlit> edgarin, what symptoms do you have/ error messages
[09:03] <glatzor> bruenig: so you are a power user and gnome-app-install doesn't fit your needs. that is ok :)
[09:03] <ryanakca> when creating an initrd.img, according to linux-2.6.19/Documentation/initrd.txt, "copy all the files that are needed to properly use the initrd environment"... and those files are?
[09:04] <dsnyders> flitoray, I'm not exactly understanding your question.  Do you have two lan cards?
[09:04] <jrib> noelferreira: how about  'firefox -safe-mode'?
[09:04] <bruenig> glatzor, perhaps I am not thinking of the brand new user. That is probably really nice for them. I almost forget about that because of how long I have been using
[09:04] <Yukito-kun> Hi!
[09:04] <MiniJames> hi
[09:04] <ArrenLex> !hi
[09:04] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:04] <noelferreira> same situaton jrib
[09:05] <flitoray> dsnyders: I have a wireless card (it is labelled eth1). I just need to find out my local IP address (like 192.168.0.***) because I am trying to set up port forwarding and you need the local ip.
[09:05] <eragon24> what's the best way to jook up a wireless router?
[09:05] <jerp> edgarin, I'd leave Nautilus alone and use K3B
[09:05] <jrib> noelferreira: have you installed anything without using official ubuntu repositories or outside of APT?
[09:05] <edgarin> nothlit with k3b says: Error: Cannot gain SYS_RAWIO capability.Is cdrecord installed SUID root?
[09:05] <edgarin> : Operation not permitted
[09:05] <noelferreira> just jre jrib
[09:05] <agonoruci> how do i find my CD drive in Ubuntu 6.10
[09:06] <nothlit> gnome-app-install helps users keep from getting confused, presents things in an easily understood way so they can install the apps they need without needing to see the clutter of libraries and servers and meta/dummy packages
[09:06] <jrib> noelferreira: did firefox ever work?
[09:06] <nothlit> thats how i see it anyways
[09:06] <noelferreira> but it was ok for a day or two
[09:06] <agonoruci> i put in a Cd and its on Nautilus but i dont know how to get too it in terminal?
[09:06] <noelferreira> yes jrib
[09:06] <meener> Anyone know the drm driver version in edgy 6.10 ?
[09:06] <edgarin> nothlit: the message says: Data does not fit on disk
[09:06] <eragon24> what's the best way to hook up a wireless router?
[09:06] <irnub> anybody can help me with a mkfs.vfat command to format /dev/hda as fat32?
[09:06] <jrib> noelferreira: i don't know, you can try  'sudo apt-get --reinstall install firefox'
[09:06] <noelferreira> again?
[09:06] <Tominator> still got a problem with my nividia-glx... I uninstalled the BETA-Drivers and tried to install the stable from the default repos (i think its mutiverse) and then my XSERVER collapsed saying that the X-Module is another version than the nvidia-glx... whats the problem?
[09:06] <noelferreira> i did it twice
[09:06] <finalbeta> agonoruci, It will be mounted in /media
[09:06] <agonoruci> i put in a Cd and its on Nautilus but i dont know how to get too it in terminal?
[09:06] <jrib> noelferreira: no, not if you already have
[09:07] <nothlit> edgarin, have you googled your error message? i haven't had any problems with burning so I can't help you
[09:07] <agonoruci> ok thanks
[09:07] <noelferreira> i can't run thunderbird also jrib
[09:07] <edgarin> :(
[09:07] <Yukito-kun> what about problems during install of 6.10? I get a black screen and could not find anything on the net yet
[09:07] <nothlit> Tominator, yeah like i said, you have to disable nv or nvidia in a linux-restricted-modules configuration file
[09:07] <glatzor> Tominator: the nvidia driver requires a special version of GLX. This library needs to be compiled with your nvdia-driver
[09:08] <nothlit> Tominator, theres some posting or faq somewhere on nvnews that tells you what to do
[09:08] <agonoruci> thx finalbeta
[09:08] <Tominator> ok i'll look for it...
[09:08] <finalbeta> np agonoruci
[09:09] <G3N3SIS> Is garry here?
[09:09] <G3N3SIS> What about Anthony?
[09:10] <G3N3SIS> or trill?
[09:10] <ejm> I have some problems getting my internet going on my folks' desktop.
[09:10] <ryanakca> whats the ubuntu version of red hat's "mkinitrd" ?
[09:10] <agonoruci> i want to take my cd out, but my cd drive is not coming out
[09:10] <G3N3SIS> I used a ethernet cable for the time being ejm
[09:10] <G3N3SIS> Is it in use agon?
[09:10] <ejm> yeah, I wish I could.
[09:10] <agonoruci> umm it might be
[09:10] <agonoruci> how do i stop using it
[09:10] <nolimitsoya> agonoruci, youll have to rightclick the icon and select 'eject'
[09:10] <G3N3SIS> Well, if you have internet why not look it up?
[09:10] <flitoray> dsnyders: ?
[09:10] <nothlit> Tominator, i found it http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490 check the bottom
[09:11] <agonoruci> ohh ok
[09:11] <agonoruci> sorry im a Froob
[09:11] <agonoruci> just got this yesterday
[09:11] <ejm> lol if I had a really long ethernet cable, I wouldn't have a problem.
[09:11] <Tominator> thanks ;)
[09:11] <agonoruci> it OWNZ though
[09:11] <nothlit> Tominator, i hope it works, thats how i fixed it on a test system
[09:11] <ejm> Anyway, how would I get rid of the broadcom module that I don't need?
[09:12] <kbrooks> agonoruci: this is something called unmounting - telling ubuntu that yoou are not using your CD anymore and want it out
[09:12] <ejm> I'm going to try ndiswrapping a buffalo driver here in a sec. And it'd help if my darn lexmark printer would print the web pages correct.y
[09:12] <agonoruci> thanks kbrooks and everyone else, i am removing windowz tottally
[09:12] <eragon24> what's the best way to hook up a wireless router?
[09:12] <kbrooks> agonoruci: on Windows, you don'y have to explicitly "unmount" your CD
[09:13] <agonoruci> windowz crashes 2 much for me
[09:13] <agonoruci> this thing boots up in about 20 sec
[09:13] <agonoruci> and shuts down in abotu 10 sec
[09:13] <agonoruci> and havent had a crash yet
[09:13] <agonoruci> run very smoothly
[09:13] <tmitchell> i've got a printer set up and working mostly, except when .gif's print, they're just a solid black box
[09:13] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, it seems to be a problem with the Edgy release. But I figured it only happened with upgrades from Dapper. I believe it was the graphics card driver that was not found. You have to download them manually and reconfigure xorg. Not 100% sure though.
[09:14] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, tryed booting with live CD, chrooting and updating?
[09:14] <nolimitsoya> !lvm

[09:15] <agonoruci> LONG LIVE UBUNTU
[09:15] <ryanakca> whats the ubuntu version of red hat's "mkinitrd" ?
[09:15] <eragon24> what's the best way to set up wireless Internet?
[09:15] <jerp> "French parliament dumping Windows for Linux"  ...  http://news.zdnet.com/2100-3513_22-6138372.html
[09:15] <ejm> depends on what you have.
[09:16] <plesnivyjano> helloo, is it possible to browse internet in my work "via" my home machine? What is needed to do so?
[09:16] <kbrooks> I think I'll run Windows under Ubuntu. How do I do that?
[09:16] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: SSH forwarding...
[09:16] <dsnyders> kbrooks, take a look at wine and vmware
[09:16] <compengi> i have ext3 extended partition which is set to root permission how can i change it to user permission in order to be able to write on it?
[09:16] <ryanakca> how do you create an initrd.img?
[09:17] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, Seems like this https://bugs.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/67487
[09:17] <kbrooks> dsnyders: I don't want to use wine, so vmware it is then
[09:17] <plesnivyjano> kbrooks thats all? do i need some proxy server running on my home machine too?
[09:17] <flitoray> dsnyders: I asked how to find out my lan ip to set up port forwarding. (like 192.168.0.***)
[09:18] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: actually i think a proxy server is better, wiith ssh forwarding
[09:18] <finalbeta> compengi, you can set permissions with sudo chmod and change the permissions for others. So something like sudo chmod o+w. Or just change the owner of the files to yourself. sudo chown <user> path
[09:18] <plesnivyjano> kbrooks why so?
[09:19] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: well, maybe you don't need ssh forwarding at all
[09:19] <dsnyders> flitoray, what happend with ifconfig?
[09:19] <Raskall> Hirvinen: thanks for the chroot-tips. Works great now. I even set my preferred browser to "dchroot -d firefox %s", so that I use the 32bit firefox when clicking links too.
[09:19] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: just try out the proxy server
[09:19] <EequalsMC2> hello
[09:19] <flitoray> dsnyders: it gives me the inet addr and bcast address, i dont know which one to use
[09:20] <plesnivyjano> kbrooks thanx ill take a look on whole proxy thing
[09:20] <compengi> finalbeta:  if i will do sudo chmode o+w i would be able later to do what ever i want in the partition?
[09:20] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: in firefox, u can config a proxy server. lemme see how
[09:20] <jamesb_> is this the right place to ask about sound problems in kubuntu edgy?
[09:20] <dsnyders> flitoray, to forward a port you would need to know the specific address you are forwarding it to, so the inet address is the one to use.
[09:21] <EequalsMC2> what is the best way to update dapper
[09:21] <drkm> i'm considering changing over to ubuntu, but there are a few apps i want to run but only run on windows.. is there any type of emulater i can use on ubuntu so that i can run these in linux?
[09:21] <flitoray> dsnyders: thanks
[09:21] <finalbeta> compengi, "man chmod" You really want to read this if you use linux. Setting rights is a very common task. And no o+w mean other users then the owner have write rights.
[09:22] <EequalsMC2> what is the best way to update dapper
[09:22] <finalbeta> !upgrade
[09:22] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[09:22] <nothlit> Tominator, I have the nvidia amaranth package if you need it
[09:22] <Amaranth> !amaranth
[09:22] <ubotu> For Ubuntu 6.10 (Edgy Eft), you can obtain the (unsupported!) 9629 version of the binary NVidia drivers by using one of these repositories: "deb http://seerofsouls.com/ edgy contrib" (for x86) (key at http://seerofsouls.com/ubuntu.html) or "deb http://ubuntu.lupine.me.uk/ edgy lrm-amd64" (for AMD64)
[09:23] <nothlit> dkrm you can run wine but don't expect it to just work for most applications, or you can emulate windows inside qemu/kqemu and vmware player/workstation
[09:23] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: ffox menu > edit > preferences > connection settings > select manual proxy configuration
[09:23] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: for 1.5
[09:23] <noelferreira> fiirefox won't run on edgy. anyone knows why?
[09:24] <nolimitsoya> quick question: is it possible to add drives to a raid5 lvm array in a simple fashion? (without having to lift all data of the array, and reinsert it)
[09:24] <kbrooks> plesnivyjano: for 2.0 in edgy, its tools > options to access preferences
[09:24] <jamesb_> noelferreira: runs for meg, have you deleted any lock files?
[09:24] <jamesb_> -g
[09:24] <noelferreira> i don't know jamesb_
[09:24] <noelferreira> how can i see it jamesb_?
[09:25] <Yukito-kun> finalbeta Yes, it's just like on the link you posted
[09:25] <compengi> finalbeta: thanks alot it had worked
[09:25] <freemanda> hello
[09:25] <noelferreira> jrib: are you there?
[09:25] <jrib> noelferreira: yep
[09:25] <nothlit> Amaranth, oh theres a new repo? ty
[09:25] <plesnivyjano> kbrooks so then i set my remote proxy and tunnel through ssh to my local proxy server at home
[09:25] <noelferreira> i guess that firefox is running fine but doesn't appear graphically
[09:26] <Amaranth> nothlit: Yeah, new host. Had bandwidth problems.
[09:26] <noelferreira> is that possible jrib?
[09:26] <Yukito-kun> finalbeta I haven't installed Edgy yet, because of the problem, do you think I should get Dapper instead and forget about it?
[09:26] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, Well, i'm really not sure on how to fix it, perhaps some of the launchpad replies can help. else I would try chrooting, updating and reconfiguring xorg.
[09:26] <jamesb_> noelferreira: probably in your .mozilla directory. Have you tried starting firefox from the command line and seeing if it gives any error messages?
[09:26] <shwag> Yukito-kun: whats the problem with Edgy ?
[09:26] <compengi> finalbeta: do you know how to install an nvidia driver for edgy i have fx 5500
[09:26] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, if you hate bugs, yes, stay with dapper. Edgy has it's share of problems.
[09:26] <G3N3SIS> Hey all, I have finally gotten Ubuntu to work, though it is Dapper atm.  Edgy wouldn't budge.  Though, it is saying that it isn't picking up any sound devices.  Is there a problem with it?
[09:26] <jrib> noelferreira: well I guess so.  What made you think that?  (I had thought that may have been the problem but wasn't sure how to test it).  Are you running any fancy beryl or compiz stuff maybe?
[09:27] <noelferreira> no
[09:27] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, edgy is not much more then and updated dapper with bugs. due to the short release cycle, dapper is still a fine release.
[09:27] <noelferreira> not now jrib
[09:27] <jamesb_> I had sound in dapper, now edgy had sound at first and one day it just stopped working. Any hints on how to fix it?
[09:27] <drkm> i'm considering changing over to ubuntu, but there are a few apps i want to run but only run on windows.. is there any type of emulater i can use on ubuntu so that i can run these in linux?
[09:27] <finalbeta> compengi, no, I don't have nvidea, but I'm sure there are howto's or
[09:27] <G3N3SIS> I don't have sound in Dapper.
[09:27] <G3N3SIS> I'm trying to get the sound
[09:27] <finalbeta> !nvidea > compengi
[09:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidea - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:28] <G3N3SIS> help!
[09:28] <Yukito-kun> shwag My prob is that the install won't proceed, but produce a black screen with the pc not reacting
[09:28] <G3N3SIS> How come I do not have sound functioning in Ubuntu 6.06?
[09:28] <dsnyders> !nvidia

[09:29] <drkm> well don't ignore me
[09:29] <nothlit> dkrm you can run wine but don't expect it to just work for most applications, or you can emulate windows inside qemu/kqemu and vmware player/workstation
[09:29] <lamego> drkm, wine or vmware may work for you
[09:29] <noelferreira> ok jrib
[09:29] <jrib> drkm: that gets you attention, but the wrong kind.

[09:30] <needshelp> seeing as drkm decieded h'es more importnat then anyone else here could someone please scroll up when they get a chance and try to help me with my problem
[09:30] <jrib> noelferreira: alright, too bad we couldn't figure it out.  You could try the forums or mailing list too to get more eyes on the issue
[09:30] <drkm> nothlit: do i have to have windows installed to enulate it?
[09:30] <nothlit> kbrooks, vmware server calls itself workstation
[09:30] <Tominator> it's 1.0-9629

[09:31] <rverrips> Hi - heard today that apparently the Wireless LED functioning in ipw2200 driver is off by default 'cause it may cause instabilty - Anyone here can confirm that?
[09:31] <compengi> cleo: try k3b
[09:31] <Elda> Meh, Im having some problems >.<  I dont know if Ive messed anything up... but Ive enabled all the repositories, but Im unable to download any of the kernel based things I need on this thread: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221672&highlight=7000VE.  Can someone help me out?
[09:31] <nothlit> cleo, make an iso of the drive with dd if=/dev/dvdrw of=/home/user/myiso.iso and then burn it
[09:31] <drkm> compengi: what would you recommend to run windows files?
[09:32] <rverrips> Elda - Sorry if this sounds too simply, but did you run sudo apt-get update?
[09:32] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, not really no. It's build on the same framework.
[09:32] <Ernz> Hello, are there any programs in Ubuntu that will allow me to select a single file from within a torrent download?
[09:32] <cleo> compengi, nonlit ... so there is graphical tool in the default install?
[09:32] <Elda> Hmmm I think I may have, but let me see :s
[09:33] <markus__> Hello. Whats the opposite to "echo 'input to put in' >> thefile.txt" ?
[09:33] <compengi> drkm: there is only one program that can run .exe files on linux which is called wine
[09:33] <Elda> and dont worry about being simple, I just started using linux 3 days ago xD
[09:33] <Yukito-kun> finalbeta Okay, thanks. I guess I'll try Ubuntu Dapper
[09:33] <nothlit> Is there a way to selectively apt update? I feel guilty whenever I make a few modifications to sources.list and update
[09:33] <needshelp> okay i'll put it another way: how can i access my files on my hdd? i wan't to play media files from my windows partition. they are divx avi's and ogg files so i know they will work. just can't figure out how to let it access my drive. it says it can't mount it if i try to open from places browser. if i try to open it from the tmp folder it says i dont have permission and i cna't change the permissions becuase i am not the owner. sorry k
[09:33] <dsnyders> markus__, what are you trying to do?
[09:33] <compengi> cleo: yes k3b is GUI
[09:33] <eloquence_> mew
[09:34] <rverrips> nothlit - No worries, the repositories are there to be used?
[09:34] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, I see no reason why you wouldn't get the black screen on Xubuntu. So yes, I would try Dapper
[09:34] <markus__> dsnyders, the oppsite.. eg delete the entry "input to put in" in the file "thefile.txt"
[09:34] <Ernz> CANCEL THAT: It looks like KTorrent does it. Thanks anyway,. Bye
[09:34] <Kupolinkn> speak spanish ?
[09:34] <nothlit> markus__, opposite? i'm not sure what you mean but it you want to do that with ubuntus sudo system you do echo string | sudo tee -a file
[09:34] <leafw> where is the data contained in the gconf-editor stored in the file system?
[09:34] <finalbeta> needshelp, you can't open the partition from the places menu? Did it ever work? Normally windows partitions get added to /etc/fstab and show up in places. But you can't write on ntfs partitions, only read from them.
[09:34] <cleo> compengi, but k3b is an additional step to install. thanks anyway.

[09:34] <nothlit> rverrips, yeah but we're not supposed to update more than once a day and any time i make a change and do an update it updates every entry
[09:35] <Kupolinkn> grax
[09:35] <jrib> leafw: http://www.gnome.org/learn/admin-guide/2.14/gconf-0.html
[09:35] <needshelp> finalbeta: well it is ntfs i don't need to write just read. but it doesn't let me even open it i was thinking cause ubuntu may not support sata drives but i wasn't sure is that my problem
[09:35] <hou5ton> I am trying to access files on our home network, but can't figure out what package to install .... is it samba, or smb4k, which says it's for KDE and I use Gnome??
[09:35] <dsnyders> markus, you could use sed.  I don't know the specific command parameters, but it can remove a specific line from a file.
[09:35] <rverrips> needshelp - Try this in a terminal ... sudo mkdir /windows <enter> sudo mount /dev/hda2 /windows
[09:35] <nothlit> rverrips, btw i mean aptitude update, not aptitude upgrade
[09:35] <leafw> jrib : thank you. I also need to figure out how to clean away all these "connected" servers which are not even proesent in my desktop ...
[09:35] <Yukito-kun> finalbeta Hope I don't annoy cause you ought to read such thinks on the net, but how slim is Xubuntu really? Are there many components missing, like media file support or OpenOffice?
[09:35] <markus__> nothlit, i trying to delete the entry "input to put in" in the file "thefile.txt"
[09:35] <leafw> they are all ftp
[09:36] <rverrips> needshelp - Ubuntu supports sata drives just fine ... and ntfs as well (although only read-only by default)
[09:36] <nothlit> hou5ton, nautilus already has samba support built in, but smbfs is a nice solution for mounting samba shared
[09:36] <jrib> leafw: hmm can you right click in nautilus and select "unmount"?
[09:36] <kbrooks> hou5ton: KDE applications only require the revelant libraries and any additional applications which it requires
[09:36] <nothlit> hou5ton, shares*
[09:36] <leafw> jrib : they are not listed, they are "stuck" or something
[09:36] <jrib> leafw: where do you see them?
[09:36] <finalbeta> Yukito-kun, Sry, no idea, media support is something that you usually have to install after intallation. I think openoffice is installed. but if you use Xubuntu, you can manually install every app you liked in ubuntu later.
[09:37] <leafw> jrib : in the gconf-editor for instance, under desktop/connected_servers
[09:37] <Elda> rverrips:  I tried that, but still no dice :S
[09:37] <needshelp> rverrips: says dev/hda2 does not exist
[09:37] <finalbeta> needshelp, ubuntu should support sata. You are running the live CD? Or you have a full installation?
[09:37] <needshelp> live dvd
[09:37] <jrib> leafw: oh I see.  I don't know anything about that.  I don't even have that key here
[09:38] <leafw> jrib: if no servers are present, the key is not present
[09:38] <noex> Anyone have tips for creating a new partition from a existing Ubuntu setup? Currently, I have all my space allocated for, I will need to do some resizing. Anyone has a FAQ link or suggestion for me?
[09:38] <nothlit> Yukito-kun, Xubuntu is just a lighter weight desktop that uses a lighter weight suite of apps, you still get automounting ( i think) and filebrowsing and what not, but it runs faster and less feature filled. you can still reinstall any apps you might miss and you can check what ubuntu installs by typing apt-cache show ubuntu-desktop
[09:38] <finalbeta> needshelp, ah, that explains it. On the Live DVD, no partitions are mounted by default. you will have to mount them yourself.
[09:38] <Yukito-kun> finalbeta Of course, you can configure it afterwards. But it costs time! Again, thanks for your kind help! It's my decision after all.
[09:38] <needshelp> so how do i do it finalbeta
[09:39] <needshelp> i tired the command from rverrips but it didn't wokr
[09:39] <finalbeta> Can someone tell needshelp what the best way would be to mount an ntfs drive from the Live DVD?
[09:39] <twa1296> hi, my sound just stopped working spontaneously after an x session crash, any ideas?
[09:40] <leafw> twa1296 : the master may be down to zero.
[09:40] <twa1296> leafw checked it already
[09:40] <hou5ton> twa1296:   for what it's worth, when mine did that, it set all the levels to zero
[09:40] <finalbeta> needshelp, sudo mkdir /media/windows and then sudo mount /dev/hda1 /media/windows/ -t ntfs -o nls=utf8,umask=0222 needshelp you will have to replace /dev/hda1 with the windows partition.
[09:41] <nothlit> does anyone know if i need to boot the 386 kernel to use mondo or can i use the generic kernel? basically does mindi just reference the kernel to create its discs or need it to run?
[09:41] <rverrips> needshelp, sorry, /dev/hda2 is if you have ide ... for sata try /dev/sda1 (I think ... let me confirm)
[09:41] <alecjw> when i open my address book in evolution, it goes to Local/Anniversery, how can i make it go to Local/All instead?
[09:42] <noex> Anyone have tips for creating a new partition from a existing Ubuntu setup? Currently, I have all my space allocated for, I will need to do some resizing. Anyone has a FAQ link or suggestion for me?
[09:42] <nothlit> finalbeta, does he mean read or read/write? the disc doesn't have ntfs-3g or captive installed
[09:42] <rverrips> needshelp, jup, /dev/sda1 for sata (could be /dev/sda2 or /dev/sda3 for different numbered partitions, or /dev/sdb1 for first partition on second (slave) sata drive)
[09:42] <finalbeta> nothlit, read

[09:42] <needshelp> ty rvrrips be back if it don't work
[09:43] <nothlit> jerp you need to install gtk2-engine-pixbuf
[09:43] <finalbeta> Ohw, I have ntfs-3g installed, hwo can I make Ubuntu auto mount my external ntfs drives with this driver?
[09:43] <nothlit> jerp, yeah it doesn't make sense that the gtk2 pixmap engine isn't called pixmap

[09:47] <dou213> stewski, which one is better?
[09:48] <r3tex> G3N3SIS, does it have a double base, or just a regular drum beat?
[09:48] <stewski> I like vmware
[09:48] <r3tex> like metal, or tribal?
[09:48] <G3N3SIS> drum beat

[09:48] <G3N3SIS> tribal

[09:48] <phisquare> I want subversion access on this box too and remote vnc access as well
[09:48] <r3tex> just kidding :)
[09:48] <dou213> stewski, are both free?
[09:48] <phisquare> Can this be done easily with edgy?
[09:48] <G3N3SIS> So, is there a way to fix it?
[09:48] <Lamego> phisquare, install samba or sshd

[09:48] <cleo> does anyone know what acidrip (available in 'applications' --> 'add/remove') is like compared to "dd if=/dev/dvd of=/dev/xyz.iso' ?
[09:48] <stewski> yes but vmware seems more open source friendly I use it on ubuntu to run xp
[09:48] <r3tex> you have to first download TFM and then you have to RTFM
[09:49] <r3tex> :D wha wha wha wha
[09:49] <G3N3SIS> Whats TFM and RTFM?
[09:49] <Lamego> cleo, you can't burn a dvd with dd
[09:49] <nothlit> cleo, you can't put the iso into /dev
[09:49] <Lamego> ops, iso creation
[09:49] <Lamego> ok :P
[09:49] <phisquare> Should I download the custom ubuntu install over the desktop installer?

[09:49] <G3N3SIS> ah fine.
[09:49] <G3N3SIS> If you insist
[09:49] <swaby1> join #ubuntu-classroom
[09:49] <eobanb> no, that's what it stands for, G3N3SIS
[09:49] <r3tex> fine?
[09:50] <eilker> stewski: it gives a warning...
[09:50] <leafw> actually, sad as it sounds, Windows XP runs better on a macbook than macosx itself.
[09:50] <stewski> whats the warning?
[09:50] <cleo> nothlit, so acidrip does something else then?
[09:50] <nothlit> does anyone know how to modify which kernel to boot on the ubuntu livecd
[09:50] <eilker> stewski: u cant install when os is running etc...
[09:50] <G3N3SIS> so r3t3x, do you mean to tell me that I need the gstramer plugins or?
[09:50] <G3N3SIS> streamer*
[09:50] <nothlit> cleo, im not sure, i just told you the "simplest" way to fix your solution off the top of my head, i haven't used acidrip
[09:51] <G3N3SIS> Where exactly will i be able to find out about tfm, and rtfm?
[09:51] <Roy> hello
[09:51] <cleo> nothlit, info grub should do it ... grub is powerful
[09:51] <r3tex> G3N3SIS, no if you hear sound then the soundcard is detected and working. It's probably just a trivial configuration issue. Just try playing around with it. It should work

[09:53] <r3tex> there it is
[09:53] <swaby1> roy are u using k3b
[09:53] <mianos> two days ago i updatet to edgy and now the remote is set on multimedia-keys too - i don't want that!
[09:53] <r3tex> so it's detected
[09:53] <stewski> eilker sorry I cant be more help I don't remember, mine is vmware server and had no problem installing the tools
[09:53] <Roy> yeas swaby1
[09:53] <eilker> stewski: ok, now i could install it, thank you
[09:53] <G3N3SIS> but the sound thing says either something is wrong with my card, or i'm missing gstreamer plugins
[09:53] <Roy> i got ubuntu edgy gnome keb
[09:53] <nothlit> Amaranth, is it hawkwind's or philips key that you need for the contrib repo of seer of souls
[09:53] <G3N3SIS> so should I go get gstreamer?
[09:53] <swaby1> do you get error messages?
[09:53] <compengi> who knows how to install nvidia driver for fx 5500 on edgy?
[09:53] <mianos> somebody an idea how i can fix this,? just the keyboard should be used for volume-control and such things
[09:53] <Amaranth> nothlit: hawkwind's
[09:53] <PingunZ> What font does ubuntu use ? ( system > preferences > fonts )
[09:53] <mianos> not the lirc-compatible-tv-card-remote
[09:54] <Roy> it say someting about an error code 255
[09:54] <gionnyboss> Hi all! I have a weird problem..
[09:54] <nothlit> Amaranth, Thanks :)
[09:54] <Amaranth> nothlit: Have you, by any chance, read an Animorphs book? :)
[09:54] <strabes> Amaranth: I have!!! i read them all like 10 years ago
[09:54] <nothlit> Amaranth, indeed
[09:54] <Amaranth> strabes: me too :P
[09:54] <jerp> PingunZ, I think they are defaulted to serif
[09:54] <Amaranth> I've still got a large box full of them
[09:54] <eilker> stewski: lets say i had virus in win xp part, my host os will be effected ??
[09:54] <Elda> meh
[09:55] <dou213> eilker, no
[09:55] <Roy> and it tell me a report at the end but it long and i dont know what iis it
[09:55] <Elda> Im sure I missed it if someone answered me as xchat started acting gimpy
[09:55] <gionnyboss> I installed a patch (915resolution) to use the correct screen resolution with my laptop. If I start in safe mode, enter root password and start the patch manually (/etc/init.d/915resolution start) and then I do 'startx' it works... while if I start the system normally, I can't use the correct resolution, now I'm at 640x480 and it's awful... can anybody help, please? maybe I have to be sure that it is in the runlevel, but I don't know
[09:55] <gionnyboss> how to do it
[09:55] <Elda> But how would I get to the settings where I can select my video card etc?
[09:55] <stewski> eilker the virtual server is safe, the ubuntu install will remain fine regardless of XP
[09:55] <dou213> eilker, the virtual machine protects the host machine, it's one of the great benefits
[09:55] <eilker> dou213: it is good, i liked it too much:)) except of one thing
[09:56] <Amaranth> Elda: Looking at that thread now
[09:56] <mianos> no idea?
[09:56] <Elda> okey
[09:56] <nothlit> gionnyboss, you have to edit gdm's configuration files
[09:56] <Roy> i want to burn the kubuntu image but it doent work
[09:56] <Elda> I cant get any of the kerlenl things to install
[09:56] <G3N3SIS> what is the original root password?
[09:56] <eilker> the mui doesnt accept my username and password
[09:56] <Roy> my cd copier
[09:56] <G3N3SIS> I did su in the terminal and I tried nothing, as well as root.
[09:56] <G3N3SIS> Nothing came out
[09:56] <strabes> G3N3SIS: you have to set it yourself
[09:56] <Elda> So I tried without it, and it gives me an error.log
[09:56] <jerp> PingunZ, I'm sure you know Ubuntu allows a package called msttcorefonts also
[09:56] <stewski> there are plenty of difficulties running linux but the lack of viruses and not needing a firewall are brilliant benefits
[09:56] <compengi> Roy: try to burn it on low speed like 4x
[09:56] <Elda> So then I tried what it mentoined on page 3 but I dont know where I access that
[09:56] <PingunZ> jerp, indeed .. I know :)
[09:57] <Amaranth> Elda: I would not recommend doing that.
[09:57] <Elda> :s
[09:57] <nothlit> Does anyone know how the boot menu of the livecd works?
[09:57] <stewski> I've heard it said that when you have a small gene pool you get ugly and ill a lot :-)
[09:57] <eilker> dou213 , stewski : the mui doesnt accept my username and password, do u have such experience ?
[09:57] <nothlit> stewski, you probably still need to run a firewall
[09:57] <eumel> hi
[09:57] <Elda> I dont need to do all that, I have an igp 345m and Im thinking all I have to do is : For those testing or already working with Ubuntu 6.10 there is a twist to this. You no longer need to load the DRI's driver as it's already in the distro. Just go into System Settings/Monitor & Display, log into the administrator mode and set your hardware to:
[09:57] <Elda> that part
[09:58] <stewski> nothlit ubuntu runs no listening services by default
[09:58] <gionnyboss> nothlit, sorry for the private, I ask you here! how can I edit gdm's startup files, please?
[09:58] <Roy> i cant burn my cd's
[09:58] <Elda> But I cant find the system settings part :/
[09:58] <compengi> Roy: O.o why?!
[09:58] <eumel> am new to ubuntu,how do i mount my hda5 partition and set my keyboard to de
[09:58] <nothlit> stewski, of course but people may still enable services like networks shares and ssh and if so...
[09:59] <Roy> it appears an error code 255
[09:59] <stewski> well ssh is pretty secure no?
[09:59] <nothlit> Doesn't mean I would leave it at defaults
[09:59] <shogo3d> check this out..  ps -ef|grep X tells me that Xgl is running
[09:59] <alecjw> when i open my address book in evolution, it goes to Local/Anniversery, how can i make it go to Local/All instead?
[09:59] <needshelp> okay: so i got my second partitoin to mount i can see those files, but have many more on the actual first one with windows: used sda2 for that. but it keeps telling my the first one is already monted in tmp/disks-conf-sda1 any ideas
[09:59] <shogo3d> but its still 2d
[09:59] <Lamego> ssh is secure as long you setup secure passwords :P
[09:59] <stewski> and the presumption is you're behind a nat-firewall in most cases
[09:59] <nothlit> most people don't use keys and leave it at a default port
[09:59] <nothlit> great for brute forcing
[09:59] <shogo3d> what am i missing?
[10:00] <dou213> stewski, you seem to have some exp with virtual machines, can we prv?
[10:00] <eilker> stewski: https://<IP_ADDRESS>:8333 it doesnt accept my username and password, did u have it before ?
[10:00] <eumel> ok,set my keyboard,but how do i mount my hd
[10:00] <oosoosh> oh my God.
[10:00] <oosoosh> this channel is full
[10:00] <stewski> sure whats up?
[10:00] <alecjw> oosoosh: 1002 is nothing
[10:00] <oosoosh> stewski: i think it is good
[10:00] <oosoosh> alecjw: really ? where can i see more ?
[10:01] <cleo> if I had a second dvd drive ... would edgy burn dvd by copying on the fly through the native cd/dvd burner program?
[10:01] <sigp239> I get an error when I login:  Internal error
[10:01] <sigp239> failed to initialize HAL!
[10:01] <sigp239> does anyone know what that is/
[10:01] <alecjw> oosoosh: well, this channel has more users than any other channel on freenode, but there are often more people here
[10:01] <Elda> Amarinth - I know that other part shouldnt be done but on the third page it mentions just entering System Settings/Monitor & Display and setting it to use the video card... how would I enter that?
[10:01] <Elda> As I cant seem to find it :S
[10:02] <eumel> jeez,so many ppl in here and no help :(
[10:02] <nothlit> cleo, nautilus burning isn't powerful enough for that, if you're running ubuntu and not kubuntu, try install gnomebaker or braseros and see how you like them
[10:02] <G3N3SIS> What is the default super user password
[10:02] <oosoosh> alecjw: i see. really good
[10:02] <Elda> eumel, be patient :s
[10:02] <Elda> Not everyone here is an expert and there are many other people in here who need hep too
[10:02] <oosoosh> eumel: whats up ?
[10:02] <Elda> *help
[10:02] <alecjw> eumel: it should mount automatically
[10:03] <nothlit> G3N3SIS, there is none, ubuntu uses sudo, you can use sudo -s for super user privileges but old varibles and sudo -i for true root login, i recommend you use these because then sudo logs them
[10:03] <eilker> people in vmware ;  https://<IP_ADDRESS>:8333 it doesnt accept my username and password, anyone had it before ?

[10:03] <stewski> very helpful

[10:03] <G3N3SIS> yeah, i messed up on log in
[10:04] <justin420> hi. anybody tell me how to disable agpgart?
[10:04] <eloquence_> ircminer, who here prefers kubuntu over ubuntu?
[10:04] <G3N3SIS> thanks I got it
[10:04] <G3N3SIS> I have to log off really fast
[10:04] <eloquence_> huh
[10:04] <stewski> i prefer ubuntu but Ive not tried kbuntu
[10:04] <cleo> even k3b would do if its known to copy and burn on the fly as k3b installs on ubuntu anyway...
[10:04] <nothlit> cleo, you could probably use one of them and make the iso and then use the same drive to burn the duplicate
[10:05] <nothlit> cleo i see no reason why you would need another drive
[10:05] <nothlit> cleo and if both those progs don't have what you need k3b will
[10:05] <alecjw> when i open my address book in evolution, it goes to Local/Anniversery, how can i make it go to Local/All instead?
[10:05] <eumel> oosoosh: i'm trying to find out,how i can mount and use my hda5 from live-cd?
[10:05] <oosoosh> who asked the question about failing to initialize HAL ?
[10:05] <stewski> I'd try kde but the k prefix on apps seems counter intuitive and for a while kde was using some not free libraries (not any more though) Ive used amarok kde music player it was excellent
[10:05] <cleo> nothlit, so i do not have to sacrifice hard disk space ... why on the fly burning is good
[10:06] <oosoosh> eumel: it isnt automatically mounted ?
[10:06] <nothlit> ubuntu is really impressive in how theyve implemented gnome, it convinced me, i don't use a DE but still
[10:06] <stewski> and k3b burner looks great
[10:06] <alecjw> eumel: sudo mount -t <filke system> /dev/hda5 <mount point>
[10:06] <oosoosh> for failing HAL initialization http://easylinuxguide.com/forum/index.php?topic=68.msg233
[10:06] <cleo> nothlit, also speed .. half the time ...no?
[10:06] <nothlit> cleo, ahh, well if you don't mind the extra expense it should be possible, you can google it if you want to be absolutely sure or poke around in the applications
[10:06] <eumel> alecjw:but where do i find the mounted hd?in kanotix it is under media or other distros under mnt?!
[10:06] <stewski> nothlit yes I really like ubuntu environment the missus uses it without caring its not windows
[10:06] <oosoosh> this channel is fast -
[10:06] <r3tex> is the default ubuntu kernel not smp enabled?? :P
[10:07] <alecjw> eumel: what fs is it, and i can give you an exact command
[10:07] <leafw> r3tex : nope. Just choose the smp from synaptic
[10:07] <eobanb> !smp
[10:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:07] <bimberi> r3tex: it is in Edgy, but not in earlier Ubuntu releases
[10:07] <nothlit> cleo, anyways you don't sacrifice space you can delete it afterwards. also burning programs still cache the data before they start to prevent corruption
[10:07] <eobanb> !kernel
[10:07] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[10:07] <eobanb> durr.
[10:07] <r3tex> bimberi, wtf did i get an old version =/ shiat
[10:07] <oosoosh> eumel: THAT disk u talk about , what is the file system ?
[10:07] <bimberi> !version | r3tex
[10:07] <ubotu> r3tex: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type 'lsb_release -a' in the Terminal.
[10:08] <sigp239> what does this do?  sudo update-rc.d -f dbus remove
[10:08] <sigp239> sudo update-rc.d dbus defaults 12
[10:08] <n1gke> Howdy folks. . .
[10:08] <eobanb> bimberi, that's not true.
[10:08] <r3tex> 6.10
[10:08] <eumel> oosoosh: what you mean by filesystem?
[10:08] <stewski> one thing about gnome - file listing in the home directory (when showing dot directories) is dog slow
[10:08] <leafw> !uname
[10:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uname - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:08] <bimberi> eobanb: oh, tell me more
[10:08] <eobanb> bimberi, by default the kernel is -generic
[10:08] <leafw> lsb_release -a ? Shouldn't that be uname -a ?
[10:08] <r3tex> bimberi, edgy.. it's hard to remember the names :D hehe
[10:08] <bimberi> !generic | eobanb
[10:08] <ubotu> eobanb: Background to the decision to replace -386, -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html
[10:08] <eobanb> smp is available, as an option, in all versions of ubuntu
[10:08] <oosoosh> eumel: tell us if you have installed anything on it
[10:08] <nothlit> who has enabled popularity-contest here, just curious ^^
[10:08] <sigp239> oosoosh:  what do those commands do?
[10:08] <justin420> Anybody have a nvidia card; and if so uses the nvagp instead of agpgart? if so could you help with disabling agpgart so the nvagp mod can do its thing?
[10:08] <jrib> nothlit: <--
[10:09] <bimberi> nothlit: aye
[10:09] <eumel> my hda5 is fat32 and the other one is reiserfs,if thats what youmean
[10:09] <stewski> whats popularity?
[10:09] <oosoosh> sigp239: i dont know - but i thought it could help
[10:09] <nothlit> Isn't popularity-contest's results skewed towards power users? =/
[10:09] <hou5ton> how do I get smb4k to let me open it as user?
[10:09] <Elda> how do I log in with root access?
[10:09] <nothlit> stewski, it keeps track of what programs you use more often and tells ubuntu
[10:09] <n1gke> !nvidia
[10:09] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:09] <jerp> mopth, I think I have it activated

[10:10] <jerp> nothlit, I think I have it activated
[10:10] <bart__> i can't resize windows in beryl :(
[10:10] <M3G4crux> l2ping tells me "Permission denied" anyone has any idea how to fix this?
[10:10] <nothlit> jerp, :)
[10:10] <oosoosh> Elda: have u enabled root already ?
[10:10] <alecjw> eumel: mkdir HardDriveA5, then sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 HardDiskA5, then it will be in your home dir
[10:11] <stewski> cheers nothlit I think I can help using this
[10:11] <Elda> Im thinking its enabled, but when I tried logging in as root it tells me "cannot login as root from this screen" or something like that
[10:11] <Elda> When I try to do so >.<
[10:11] <eumel> alecjw: thx
[10:11] <justin420> n1gke: dont see anything there about using nvagp instead of agpgart??
[10:11] <nothlit> stewski, thats great :D
[10:11] <Elda> On the front screen where I log in/select session etc
[10:11] <oosoosh> Elda: what screen ? can u be more specific ?
[10:11] <Elda> You know, the screen where you select your session when you first start ubuntu
[10:12] <Elda> Where you enter your user name and password
[10:12] <oosoosh> Elda: aaah i see
[10:12] <Elda> so how do I access it?
[10:12] <Elda> As I wish to change a system setting so that it actually uses the drivers to my card....
[10:12] <oosoosh> Elda: can u see the picture oor name for root there ?
[10:12] <jrib> !root | Elda
[10:12] <ubotu> Elda: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:12] <Elda> bleh then how do I access this? Setting
[10:13] <stewski> nothlit thats why I love ubuntu when they want to spy on us they make us use dpkg to CHOOSE to let them
[10:13] <stewski> :-)
[10:13] <eumel> cool,i can see my files now ;)
[10:13] <Elda> one seccond
[10:13] <whyameye> I can't get sendmail to actually send mail successfully. Anybody know anything about either config or substitution of that program with another?
[10:13] <nothlit> stewski, :)
[10:13] <Elda> jrib how would I get to the point that I can do this?  For those testing or already working with Ubuntu 6.10 there is a twist to this. You no longer need to load the DRI's driver as it's already in the distro. Just go into System Settings/Monitor & Display, log into the administrator mode and set your hardware to:
[10:13] <Elda> Because I look at the system drop down and see nothing that allows me to access that
[10:14] <rc-1> OMG LOL http://www.adequacy.org/stories/2<IP_ADDRESS>056.2147.html read number eight
[10:14] <Elda> Im assuming I have to be in root to do so >.<
[10:14] <nothlit> stewski, its not spying though, the majority windows programs out there do that, its just anonymous statistics reporting
[10:14] <bimberi> Elda: It is better to use sudo and gksudo for temporary superuser access rather than enabling root login.  However if you must: System -> Administration -> Login Window, Security Tab, Allow Local Administrator Login
[10:14] <toM|vendettA> Hi, can someone tell me how I can get the login screen for Ubuntu to show the users available, so I dont have to type in my account name, i can just click on my account and type in the password?
[10:14] <Elda> Okey
[10:15] <stewski> I was kiddin nothlit and my eyes have been open on widows software for a while
[10:15] <nothlit> bimberi, i would feel safer with su -c then sudo myself, different password and permissions don't hang around for 15 minutes
[10:15] <eumel> how much RAM is required to run ubuntu from hd?
[10:15] <stewski> oops typo :-)
[10:15] <dsnyders> toM|vendettA, you mean, like a dropdown list of users?
[10:15] <Elda> hmmm
[10:15] <Elda> Okey then Im wondering through sudo, how would I get to that option?
[10:15] <jrib> Elda: what web page are you reading?
[10:16] <nothlit> eumel, i wouldn't use less than 256 for sure, there is xubuntu and ubuntu-lite if you're running legacy hardware

[10:16] <bimberi> nothlit: kk
[10:16] <oosoosh> toM|vendettA: Desktop ---> Administration ----> Login Window ---> User Tab
[10:16] <G3N3SIS> I probably, have the biggest puzzler yet!  I messed up on my install.  I made the administrator user named "root" and I can't login on that.  It is considered to be a root user.  Should I go back and reinstall.. or is there a way for my current user to become an admin.  I made this user thru failsafe recovery mode.
[10:17] <nothlit> G3N3SIS, the root account already existed
[10:17] <toM|vendettA> thanks oosoosh  and dsnyders
[10:17] <eumel> well,i'm on 256,but i.e kanotix is for 192mb,but with some applications thats rather slow
[10:17] <jrib> G3N3SIS: add your user to the 'admin' group
[10:17] <nothlit> G3N3SIS, if you're absolutely completely sure you want su - then you can use sudo passwd
[10:17] <oosoosh> toM|vendettA: ALWAYS
[10:17] <G3N3SIS> no, it's not that.
[10:17] <G3N3SIS> I want to use sudo
[10:18] <G3N3SIS> but, I can't.  It seems to think I don't have admin privs
[10:18] <jrib> G3N3SIS: in recovery mode:  adduser your_user_name admin
[10:18] <jerp> eumel, there is the alternative that will use as little 192 megs of memory
[10:18] <G3N3SIS> k thanks
[10:18] <oosoosh> G3N3SIS: if i understand well, you have the super user ( root ) and another user called root as well ?
[10:18] <eumel> whats the difrence between ubuntu and ubuntu-lite?
[10:19] <nothlit> G3N3SIS, you can make any use admin through a gui as well if you use system administration users and groups edit a user and choose the last tab
[10:19] <G3N3SIS> haha yeah
[10:19] <G3N3SIS> i'm retarded
[10:19] <stewski> nothlit what firewall are you using?
[10:19] <G3N3SIS> Yeah, that can be all true noth, but I can't do that if I'm not an admin
[10:19] <jrib> G3N3SIS: actually I would file that as a bug.  The installer should check for that
[10:20] <nothlit> stewski, my router is my firewall i play with services quite often I've set up the firewall before but I don't really need it
[10:20] <G3N3SIS> haha, as soon as I fix these stupid errors I will.

[10:20] <nothlit> stewski, if you need a gtk app and don't like firestarter, you can user fireflier-server and fireflier-client-gtk but you may need to edit a config file in /etc to login to it, and root users cant btw
[10:21] <Elda> I want to get into the system settings
[10:21] <stewski> are they based on iptables?
[10:22] <hobby55> I want to do the following command "wget http://url/xmule-1.13.6.x86.package
[10:22] <hobby55> "
[10:22] <aleka> I need help with Virtual partition recovery or physical recovery
[10:22] <nothlit> G3N3SIS the first user account should have admin privileges already
[10:22] <nothlit> stewski, yes all iptables/netfilter based
[10:22] <hobby55> and I get the following error messages "Herleiden van url... mislukt: Name or service not known.
[10:22] <hobby55> root@ubuntu:~# $ wget http://url/xmule-1.13.6.x86.package
[10:22] <hobby55> "
[10:23] <stewski> cool not used, like you I rely on a router
[10:23] <cleo> scribus manual being absent on edgy is awful... prooves so useful inse other distro i run... anyone know how to find the status of development in this case?
[10:23] <nothlit> stewski, also don't bother with gnome-lokkit it's practically useless
[10:23] <bimberi> Elda: I think this menu option you're looking for is in the driconf program (but I'm guessing)
[10:23] <Elda> driconf
[10:23] <Elda> How do I access that?
[10:23] <nothlit> stewski, if you don't mind qt/kdelibs theres guard dog      and fwbuilder
[10:23] <stewski> so its a port of the windows firewall nothlit :-)
[10:23] <bimberi> Elda: have you read that whole thread, it's in the first post
[10:23] <nothlit> stewski, absolutely not iptables > windows firewall anything
[10:23] <justin420> anybody tell me how to not load agpgart upon starting ubuntu?
[10:24] <stewski> I hear qt is all good these days
[10:24] <eumel> ubuntu takes ~60min for hd-install???jeez!
[10:24] <Kervan> Hello how can i install htsearch
[10:24] <nothlit> eumel, it shouldn't unless you have a really slow computer/hd/cd drive
[10:24] <dsnyders> hobby55, you don't have a valid website after the http://
[10:24] <stewski> ubuntu took less than 60mins for me
[10:24] <mc44> eumel: took far less time for me
[10:24] <G3N3SIS> Worked like a charm
[10:25] <Elda> I have read it
[10:25] <Elda> I installed that, and I even tried running the sh. install thing but that errors out on me
[10:25] <Elda> So Im thinking I just follow the steps on page 3 for 6.10
[10:25] <G3N3SIS> Thanks for all your help ;-)
[10:25] <stewski> is there a place we can track popularity-contest ?

[10:26] <MrKeuner> hi, how can I tell nautilus to open a special filetype with an application run in wine? can I do that?
[10:27] <G3N3SIS> Now, onto the next matter.  Sound!
[10:27] <G3N3SIS> I hear the tribal beat on turn on, and log off.
[10:27] <Elda> no that was definatley not it
[10:27] <stewski> wow I might be the only person using listen
[10:27] <G3N3SIS> it picks up my devices, as someone said earlier
[10:28] <MrKeuner> stewski: I use too, but do no tlike it much
[10:28] <G3N3SIS> Any ideas on how to get sound working?
[10:28] <dsnyders> MrKeuner, I'm not sure, but I would try setting up  terminal style application with 'wine filename' as the command.
[10:28] <mc44> !sound | G3N3SIS
[10:28] <ubotu> G3N3SIS: 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
[10:28] <stewski> what do you prefer MrKeuner
[10:28] <gr33npho3nix> hey, my network monitor icon dissapear from the gnome toolbar, I can kill it and restart it but it doesn't come back, rebooting doesn't help either , does anybody have any suggestions
[10:28] <lullabud> i have a weird problem in ubuntu on my Latitude D620 with Nvidia Quadro (no, i'm not using xgl or beryl).
[10:28] <G3N3SIS> I'm not allowed to double click the volume
[10:28] <lullabud> after a short time, all the text on my screen goes into heiroglyphic mode.
[10:28] <MrKeuner> I like quod libet more, also rhythmbox is nice
[10:29] <MrKeuner> banshee is good too
[10:29] <mc44> G3N3SIS: system -> preferences -> sound
[10:29] <eumel> no offence,but i used kanotix over a year now and somehow,i don't get used to ubuntu! :(
[10:29] <G3N3SIS> No Gstreamer plugins and/or devices found.
[10:29] <MrKeuner> dsnyders: tried that with no luck
[10:29] <ooswoosh> eumel: is freedom not about choice ?
[10:29] <rollfilm> does someone know a musicplayer for gnome which has a sleep timer and a wakeup feature?
[10:29] <G3N3SIS> Yeah when I do the cat /procs/something else here that someone instructed me to type earlier.
[10:29] <matthew_> what web browser should I use if a web site uses ActiveX control?
[10:30] <ooswoosh> rollfilm: you could investigate the crontab
[10:30] <stewski> amarok has a bookmark feature I miss that
[10:30] <dsnyders> MrKeuner, well, that exhausts my suggestions :-)
[10:30] <G3N3SIS> It said that it picked somethiing up, my device was there.  Then, I look here, and it says there is no default sound card, and that there is no options either.
[10:30] <lullabud> anybody ever have that problem?  (text goes into heirogliphic style after a while of idleness)
[10:30] <lullabud> i have a screenshot...
[10:30] <kr0n1x> gtk vs metacity: what is lighter????

[10:30] <stewski> does anyone have good itunes library import routines?
[10:31] <errorlevel> kr0n1x: Err...  Why that comparison?
[10:31] <nothlit> stewski, qt may be good but it doesn't mean I want to load kdelibs and gnome libs or install a huge chunk of kde just for a single program
[10:31] <kr0n1x> because i'm installing murrina
[10:31] <kr0n1x> and i need to select the engine...
[10:31] <frantic> hooray for flash 9
[10:31] <nothlit> kr0n1x, gtk and metacity work together
[10:31] <errorlevel> kr0n1x: And murrina is?
[10:31] <whyameye> how do I get sendmail to use my cable provider's SMTP?
[10:31] <desaparecidoo> which is the first root password after the instal?
[10:31] <stewski> indeed nothlit but gnome music players need work
[10:31] <frantic> hooray for flash 9 not having sound
[10:31] <nothlit> kr0n1x, murrine is for gtk, metacity is the window manager
[10:31] <eumel> ooswoosh: it gladly is,just my 2 cents! ;) as i said,no offence!thats why i'm here,i'm willing to learn and try new things ;)
[10:31] <r> hi i have a problem Im trying to use beryl but I get this error
[10:31] <r> XGL Absent, checking for NVIDIA
[10:31] <r> Nvidia Absent, assuming AIGLX
[10:31] <r> beryl: No composite extension
[10:31] <kr0n1x> oh...sorry i'm noob
[10:32] <kr0n1x> to activate gtk2?
[10:32] <nothlit> stewski, you tried listen quodlibet beep exaile and muine?
[10:32] <stewski> I love bookmark (restart where you last were) features in music players
[10:32] <kr0n1x> i installed it in metacity..
[10:32] <sizzam> is there a command i can use to find out what kind of RAM I'm using (like DDR2 PC4200, etc)
[10:32] <nothlit> kr0n1x, then you need murrine themes to run on the engine
[10:32] <nothlit> sizzam, lshw
[10:32] <nothlit> i think
[10:32] <stewski> Ive not tried quodlibet but add banshee to your list
[10:32] <nothlit> oh yeah forgot that one
[10:32] <eumel> rollfilm: i dont know about gnome,but with kde you have kalarm and dcop,which you can set with amarok,or anyother player!shoul be something similar in gnome,right?
[10:32] <stewski> and Im getting tired of immaturity can't they work together
[10:32] <Elda> this is agravating -_-
[10:33] <Elda> *aggravating
[10:33] <nothlit> eumel, some music players have alarms
[10:33] <kr0n1x> yes nothlit , how to activate gtk2? i've installed gtk2-engines-murrine
[10:33] <kr0n1x> only that i need?
[10:33] <nothlit> eumel, or you can run a cron or an at command
[10:33] <BetaCookies> I have used "ati" and "radeon" drivers, but I only get 800x600 resolution unless I use fglrx.. Any ideas?
[10:33] <r> can someone help me with running beryl please
[10:34] <BetaCookies> r: try in #ubuntu-xgl
[10:34] <ooswoosh> r: just ask ur question someone will try answer
[10:34] <mc44> BetaCookies: use fglrx? :)
[10:34] <stewski> adobe in repos, blob drivers are these good things for ubuntu?
[10:34] <r> i get this error
[10:34] <ooswoosh> BetaCookies: ur suggestion probably better lol
[10:34] <r> XGL Absent, checking for NVIDIA
[10:34] <r> Nvidia Absent, assuming AIGLX
[10:34] <r> beryl: No composite extension
[10:34] <NET||abuse> how the/??? microsoft virtual server 2005 R2 is FREE?????
[10:34] <nothlit> kr0n1x, like i said, now you need a murrine theme, then you just pick it from settings preferences theme after you install it ( you can drag and drop) and if you have chosen the correct sort of them it will use the murrine engine
[10:34] <BetaCookies> r: please don't paste into the channel
[10:34] <justin420> BetaCookies: edit your xorg.conf file and add your other resolutions for your monitor?
[10:34] <BetaCookies> justin420: they are already there.
[10:34] <nothlit> kr0n1x, you don't enable murrine or gtk2 in that sense
[10:34] <matthew_> what web browser should I use if a web site uses ActiveX control?
[10:34] <sioux> hi is there a repo that upgrade beryl to new version?
[10:35] <BetaCookies> sioux: try compiling it.. O.o
[10:35] <frantic> Why does my sound not work in flash 9?
[10:35] <stewski> mathew_ you can get ie on linux

[10:35] <BetaCookies> frantic: flash 9 is still in beta, I believe
[10:35] <Elda> Just making sure ... 6.10 is edgy correct?
[10:35] <kr0n1x> mmm nothlit but gtk is already activated? is the default engine of ubuntu edgy?
[10:35] <porkpie> hey guys what package would I use for this DBI-1.20  it's to allow spamassassin to talk to a mysql db
[10:35] <nothlit> sioux, if you don't like the repo's you can use subversion (svn) and compile it yourself straight from the dev sources
[10:35] <BetaCookies> Elda: yes, 6.10 is edgy
[10:35] <MrKeuner> dsnyders: thanks anyways
[10:35] <jrib> frantic: hmm actually ignore that.  Yes it is probably some issue with the beta
[10:35] <frantic> it's in the ubuntu repositories noiw
[10:35] <matthew_> stewski: I hate IE
[10:35] <matthew_> I won't use it
[10:35] <frantic> so umm how do i roll back to flash 7
[10:36] <sioux> sudo apt-get upgrade is much easyer!
[10:36] <jrib> frantic: what repository?
[10:36] <nothlit> kr0n1x, please follow my instructions, gtk and murrine are not things to be activated, there are things to be used and gtk already is, and when you use a murrine theme the murrine engine will be too.
[10:36] <desaparecidoo> HELP: which is the first root password after the instal?
[10:36] <sioux> than compiling!
[10:36] <jrib> !root | desaparecidoo
[10:36] <ubotu> desaparecidoo: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:36] <stewski> hahaha ok mathew_ I'm hardly advocating it
[10:36] <matthew_> thanks
[10:36] <dsnyders> I try, MrKeuner.  I try.
[10:36] <frantic> Looks like multiverse
[10:36] <stewski> but if you want active x I think you're stuck with windows
[10:36] <jrib> frantic: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[10:36] <sstchur> Anyone know why KNetworkManager only seems to work randomly for me?  It will be fine one time, and then the next time I try it, it fails (with the same settings that worked before), and it seems to fail more often than succeeds
[10:36] <nothlit> if you need more help go look around at gnome-look.org
[10:37] <kr0n1x> ok thx nothlit
[10:37] <Elda> Okey
[10:37] <frantic> 6.10

[10:38] <stewski> ok peeps see you, keep ubuing
[10:38] <frantic> it just looked like flash 7 to me, minus working sound
[10:39] <sstchur> Anyone know what "Association request to the driver failed" means when trying to run wpa_supplicant?
[10:39] <KDan> ok... i'm having a really weird issue with "find".... somehow it's returning strange results and errors... if anyone could take a look and tell me i'm stupid and not seeing the obvious error of my usage, I'd be very grateful: http://textpaste.net/fm7ah0
[10:39] <Elda> bbl, Im going to work on physics hw -_-
[10:39] <blameless> so would anyone like to guess why after compiling my own kernel, loging into gdm causes xorg to quit instantly, but startx works without an issue?
[10:39] <ski-worklap> how can i run a script on un-hibernate time?
[10:40] <frantic> haha
[10:40] <lullabud> KDan:  try putting your searchstring in single quotes and see if the result is any different.
[10:40] <ski-worklap> blameless, check your logs?
[10:40] <blameless> there's nothing in the logs
[10:40] <blameless> everything reads normal.  it just exits for some reason
[10:40] <KDan> lullabud: aha
[10:40] <KDan> yes, that worked better
[10:40] <KDan> how come?
[10:40] <blameless> its quite odd actually
[10:41] <lullabud> KDan:  did it work?
[10:41] <lullabud> KDan:  that is a strange result you got there...

[10:49] <compengi> gnomefreak, but i remembered that we had changed something like PCI 1:00.0 .....
[10:49] <[Wiebel] > is there a pdns-recursor 3.1 package for dapper somewhere?
[10:49] <compengi> and added something to the end of the file
[10:49] <gnomefreak> compengi: yes make it look like the busid in lspci
[10:49] <justin420> does anybody know how to disable or not use the agpgart module? i would rather use the nvagp instead.
[10:49] <gnomefreak> compengi: the last part should be : not .
[10:49] <jevangelo> in ubuntu, how do you get avi support with totem movie player
[10:49] <lullabud> justin420:  you can edit xorg.conf to set that up.
[10:49] <gnomefreak> compengi: lspci will show it as . you want : in your config file
[10:50] <lullabud> justin420:  er... at least i think so.  i think i remember seeing agpgart in there.
[10:50] <justin420> lullabud: like so? http://rafb.net/paste/results/qNCBRC29.html
[10:51] <compengi> gnomefreak, what part should be not?
[10:52] <lullabud> justin420:  hmm... yeah, i really don't know.  probably shouldn't have even said anything.
[10:52] <lullabud> justin420:  there's a room set up for glx talk, those guys might know more.  #ubuntu-glx
[10:52] <justin420> lullabud: thanks ill check that out. appreciate the help
[10:52] <kbrooks> Um
[10:52] <gnomefreak> compengi: for example if busid in lspci says 1:00.0 you would change it to read 1:00:0 for xorgconfig

[11:03] <G3N3SIS> I need help
[11:03] <kbrooks> glxgears is slow, and I6 have software accel. What do I do next?
[11:03] <G3N3SIS> My volume control is not functioning
[11:03] <kbrooks> I*
[11:03] <compengi> gnomefreak, i didn't get you
[11:03] <G3N3SIS> It says i'm either missing Gstreamer plugins which I just installed, or my device isn't supported
[11:03] <frantic> that is indeed strange
[11:03] <strabes> G3N3SIS: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Comprehensive_Sound_Problems_Solutions_Guide
[11:04] <gnomefreak> compengi: look in your xorg.conf file and tell me if it has "nvidiaquot&  or if it shows up normal
[11:04] <G3N3SIS> But wait, there is more.
[11:04] <compengi> gnomefreak, what's that sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:04] <compengi> ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:862:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave but xorg.conf opens :S
[11:04] <G3N3SIS> I did multiple methods of what people have told me to do
[11:04] <frantic> I found that setting up /etc/asound right fixed everything that has ever gone wrong with sound on my computer
[11:04] <gnomefreak> compengi: yes
[11:04] <cleo> how to change default application for bittorent to be the default program in edgy? democracy has taken over and is messing up
[11:04] <gnomefreak> compengi: ignore that for now
[11:04] <gradin> i've got a problem...
[11:04] <G3N3SIS> including the cat method, lspci -v both say they recognize my stuff.
[11:04] <G3N3SIS> how would i do that frantic?
[11:04] <princemackenzie> gradin what is it
[11:05] <gradin> my fail2ban script keeps telling me that the same ip address has been banned...
[11:05] <G3N3SIS> strabes, i've tried your link, it doesn't work
[11:05] <compengi> gnomefreak, "nvidiaquot& isn't present in the xorg.conf file
[11:05] <gnomefreak> good
[11:05] <feety> hi there. i just need to know what to add to fstab to make my hard disk /dev/hda1 writable by myself instead of just root. thanks :-)
[11:05] <princemackenzie> gradin, im not the one to ask, haha
[11:05] <gradin> so the script runs but doen't ban the ip using iptables
[11:05] <gnomefreak> compengi: wher eit says driver what do you see?
[11:05] <toM|vendettA> hi
[11:05] <strabes> G3N3SIS: it does; i'm browsing the page right now
[11:05] <princemackenzie> feety what is the file system
[11:05] <russiansonya> Is there an easy way to switch between english and russian keyboard settings?
[11:05] <feety> ext3
[11:05] <compengi> gnomefreak, nvidia
[11:05] <G3N3SIS> no no, not that type of doesn't work
[11:05] <feety> princemackenzie: ext3 (repeated for highlights)
[11:05] <toM|vendettA> can someone tell me how to get the list of people in the channel on the right side of xchat? I just installed it and its not there =\
[11:05] <strabes> kbrooks: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Video
[11:05] <G3N3SIS> doesn't work as in, i've already used the source same one as on the forums and it didn't help me
[11:06] <G3N3SIS> i'll try once again if you insist though, i'll give it a go and get back to you all
[11:06] <gnomefreak> compengi: the bus id
[11:06] <strabes> G3N3SIS: what exactly is your problem?
[11:06] <gradin> anybody know anything about fail2ban or iptables?
[11:06] <feety> toM|vendettA: you installed the normal xchat right, not the xchat-gnome package
[11:06] <compengi> gnomefreak, PCI:1:00.0
[11:06] <princemackenzie> feety, make a backup of fstab, and then just copy the entry from your root directory and change the mount point
[11:06] <toM|vendettA> i dont know feety, im not sure, i just downloaded it and installed it and now its not there
[11:06] <G3N3SIS> Well, I hear the tribal beat on logout and boot up.
[11:06] <gnomefreak> compengi: the bus id should read BusID PCI:1:00:0
[11:06] <G3N3SIS> Just to get that across.
[11:07] <G3N3SIS> That means that it is my module they said, not my card.
[11:07] <frantic> Sorry, pastebin is taking forever
[11:07] <feety> toM|vendettA: you installed the version from the repositories right
[11:07] <gnomefreak> compengi: save it and restart X
[11:07] <ompaul> gradin, you have to be more specific, some people can tell you some things others can tell you other things but no question means noone knows what you need to know
[11:07] <compengi> gnomefreak, but in lspci it's 1:00.0
[11:07] <feety> princemackenzie: sorry, can you simplify that. that flew right over my head.
[11:07] <gnomefreak> compengi: yes i know
[11:07] <G3N3SIS> I try to go to volume control and it says that I'm either missing my gstreamer plugins, which I just installed or it's my card.
[11:07] <gradin> well  i'm not sure what the problem is other than fail to ban is installed but not functioning...
[11:07] <strabes> G3N3SIS: restart your computer
[11:07] <toM|vendettA> no i didnt feety, should i do that?
[11:07] <G3N3SIS> I do the cat or the lspci -v and they both clearly see my card there.
[11:07] <compengi> okay let me try it, pray gnomefreak :P
[11:07] <gnomefreak> compengi:  lspci doesnt read things the same way your xorg.conf does
[11:07] <G3N3SIS> Already did strabes
[11:08] <feety> toM|vendettA: you should always do that. lol.
[11:08] <compengi> lol
[11:08] <G3N3SIS> how should i use my xorg.conf?
[11:08] <feety> :)
[11:08] <toM|vendettA> lol k
[11:08] <jerp> genesis, have you checked the mixer?
[11:08] <Tachoh> okay, here i go: tried a fresh install of ubuntu, xubuntu, and kubuntu just to test this theory. all of them seem to have the same issue. update-fonts-* is not looking in the right dirs from a fresh ubuntu install. if you were to remove any of the xfont packages and reinstall you'd get the warning: "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/$font does not exist or is not a directory" $font being anything like 100dpi 75dpi etc. what this seems to indicate is that on a fresh inst
[11:08] <G3N3SIS> alsamixer?
[11:08] <princemackenzie> feety i'll do a dialog with you
[11:08] <gradin> ompaul well  i'm not sure what the problem is other than fail to ban is installed but not functioning...
[11:08] <G3N3SIS> one sec
[11:08] <frantic> xorg.conf does not deal with sound
[11:08] <jerp> yes
[11:08] <Tachoh> please tell me i am wrong somewhere
[11:08] <G3N3SIS> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[11:08] <G3N3SIS> sh-3.1$
[11:08] <strabes> G3N3SIS: "how should I use my xorg.conf" what do you mean by that
[11:08] <G3N3SIS> that's my error message
[11:08] <feety> princemackenzie: im not registered with nickserv yet.
[11:08] <jerp> load it
[11:08] <G3N3SIS> how do I find out if it detects my card or not.
[11:09] <ompaul> gradin, well the thing is I know nothing of fail to ban, I can do some fairly basic stuff with iptables so I am not use to you :-/
[11:09] <princemackenzie> alright feety, its pretty simple
[11:09] <gradin> ompaul i get a mail that the ip address attempting access to my SSH has been banned... but it hasn't... cuz i get another mail...
[11:09] <feety> dont worry
[11:09] <feety> just registered
[11:09] <gradin> with the same ip address...
[11:09] <gradin> saying that it has also been banned...
[11:09] <frantic> god, GO PASTEBIN
[11:09] <ekoeke> ne diyosun arkadasm sen ya
[11:09] <toM|vendettA> feety, i did that and it still doesnt show up
[11:09] <G3N3SIS> So you guys get what I mean right?
[11:09] <frantic> in the meantime, when did your sound break?
[11:09] <gnomefreak> compengi: ?
[11:09] <G3N3SIS> I only installed today.
[11:09] <strabes> G3N3SIS: it's obviously detecting your card because it's playing sounds on login
[11:10] <G3N3SIS> The tribal beat yes.
[11:10] <G3N3SIS> They said that if it did, then it wasn't my card.
[11:10] <compengi> gnomefreak, it worked :P
[11:10] <gnomefreak> :) good brb
[11:10] <jerp> load the mixer, something isn't activated in it
[11:10] <compengi> thanks alot :)
[11:10] <G3N3SIS> I can't load the mixer
[11:10] <ana> hiya, i want to dualboot ubuntu with winXP so i will need to partition the drive... will i end up overwriting any other data on the drive?  thanks
[11:10] <feety> toM|vendettA: showing the nicklist is usually in the view menu. sorry, cant help ya much further. what i do know, is that a package called 'xchat-gnome' is available in the repositories and the stupid thing requires you to click a button to see the nicklist. you sure you dont have that by accident?
[11:10] <G3N3SIS> when i type alsamixer in terminal, it gives me this error: alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[11:10] <G3N3SIS> sh-3.1$
[11:10] <Tachoh> nobody eh?
[11:11] <toM|vendettA> hmm i dont know =\
[11:11] <compengi> gnomefreak, so the mistake was that i was putting PCI:1:00.0 which should be PCI:1:00:0
[11:11] <G3N3SIS> Man, my sound worked on other distro's...
[11:11] <frantic> son of a bitch, is there some other service like pastebin.com
[11:12] <ompaul> !pastebin

[11:12] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:12] <frantic> right, sorry
[11:13] <computermc> can someone tell me what this means?
[11:13] <computermc> configure: error: no C Sharp compiler: mcs not found in $PATH
[11:13] <frantic> genesis, here is my /etc/asound file: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35119/
[11:13] <computermc> I have mono install
[11:13] <jerp> I was blipping out over the sound not playing on my desktop and I had to load alsamixer gui in my menu and I found it had a mute switch activated
[11:13] <Tachoh> install a csharp compiler or add the utlility to your $PATH
[11:13] <gnomefreak> compengi: yes
[11:13] <jerp> flipping actually
[11:13] <frantic> you might also install alsa-oss but that's sort of a tangential problem
[11:14] <Tachoh> computermc: apt-get install mono-mcs
[11:14] <ompaul> computermc, ask in #mono it would be a better place for that
[11:14] <Tachoh> and you'll be good
[11:14] <Libra102> hello
[11:14] <Tachoh> i'll try again
[11:14] <Tachoh> "okay, here i go: tried a fresh install of ubuntu, xubuntu, and kubuntu just to test this theory. all of them seem to have the same issue. update-fonts-* is not looking in the right dirs from a fresh ubuntu install. if you were to remove any of the xfont packages and reinstall you'd get the warning: "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/$font does not exist or is not a directory" $font being anything like 100dpi 75dpi etc. what this seems to indicate is that on a fresh ins
[11:14] <frantic> anyway, compare your /etc/asound file.  When i installed edgy, it was all screwed up for me
[11:14] <frantic> though I updated from dapper.
[11:14] <G3N3SIS> i'm following the link I was given earlier.
[11:14] <Tachoh> any ideas on that,worthy of a bug report?
[11:15] <computermc> ompaul: thanks, I will ask that type of question in #mono next time!
[11:15] <G3N3SIS> It didn't work before, it is working now.. I removed my sound packages, reinstalled them, reinstalled the gnome stuff that was deleted, and I will now reboot and check a aplay -l
[11:15] <G3N3SIS> if it comes out, then I have soudn!
[11:15] <reverseblade> Tachoh, sure don't hesitate it for reporting
[11:15] <frantic> good luck
[11:15] <ompaul> Tachoh, it is worthy of a bug report, first off do updatedb and see wwhere things actually are
[11:16] <Tachoh> yeah, i guess i'll do it.
[11:16] <ana> i'm looking to find out if i dual boot ubuntu with windows if i will overwrite any data on the hard drive :)
[11:16] <Tachoh> ana: nope, not unles syou format the windows partition
[11:16] <Tachoh> you*
[11:16] <reverseblade> ana, is anything installed
[11:16] <ana> win XP and other stuffs
[11:17] <Tachoh> just make sure you select a custom disk layout
[11:17] <ana> but i have only 1 partition currently
[11:17] <reverseblade> ana, do you have empty unpartitioned area in your disk
[11:17] <Tachoh> if windows is on the wntire drive it's best to drop ina new drive or use something like partition magic to free up some space
[11:17] <Tachoh> entire*
[11:17] <ana> tachoh, yeah , i feared something like that
[11:17] <ana> cool, thanks folks :)
[11:17] <reverseblade> ana you can resize the windows partition, I have done it and no problems
[11:18] <ana> in windows utilities?
[11:18] <G3N3SIS> failure.. /cry
[11:18] <mkst_> need help on iptables
[11:18] <reverseblade> ana, no while installing ubuntu, there you should see the partitioner
[11:18] <reverseblade> mkst_, try #networking or #linux
[11:19] <G3N3SIS> yeah guys, it didn't work for me...
[11:19] <Tachoh> there are linux tools that will resize some partitions, parted comes to mind. you can read about those ana if you want. there is always the possibility of wiping the drive however.
[11:19] <reverseblade> ana, I say go for it
[11:19] <_GM_FrOdO_> hey
[11:19] <_GM_FrOdO_> people
[11:19] <ana> hahaha, easy for you to say ;)
[11:19] <_GM_FrOdO_> can semeone tell me where I go for my FAT32 patition appear?
[11:20] <reverseblade> ana, ubuntu installer will explicitly say if it intends to delete a partition
[11:20] <_GM_FrOdO_> partition*
[11:20] <ana> cool, i'll prolly drop another drive in to be extra safe :) and i'll back up first ;)
[11:20] <feety> lol using the manual partitioner is easier said than done o_o
[11:20] <G3N3SIS> So, what am I supposed to do?
[11:20] <Tachoh> _GM_FrOdO_: you mean, to allow you to see a fat32 partition that's in your computer?
[11:20] <Tachoh> as in, mount it?
[11:20] <cleo> hmm how do i change default ap[plication in edgy?
[11:20] <reverseblade> _GM_FrOdO_,  mount it
[11:20] <_GM_FrOdO_> how?
[11:20] <gnomefreak> !defaultapp
[11:20] <ubotu> To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. In Kubuntu, Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations"
[11:20] <DaGame> What version of firefox does latest ubuntu use?

[11:26] <SupremeBeing> I'm trying ti install GAIM, and it doesn't show up on the package lists.  Tried to install plugin for GAIM, got error (BREAK)install
[11:26] <_GM_FrOdO_> mount: de acordo com mtab, /dev/hda1 est montado em /media/hda1
[11:26] <_GM_FrOdO_> .......
[11:26] <reverseblade> gleesond, unfortunately ubgrading to edgy is problematic, back up your home folder and go for a fresh install
[11:26] <_GM_FrOdO_> it's already mounted in /media/hda1
[11:26] <reverseblade> dapper problems
[11:26] <_GM_FrOdO_> but I can't see
[11:26] <_GM_FrOdO_> :\
[11:27] <_GM_FrOdO_> I only see my Windows partition
[11:27] <gleesond> reverseblade: I will try that, but the edgy installer is not playing nice with my graphics card
[11:27] <reverseblade> SupremeBeing, search the forums as gaim beta 5
[11:27] <sushi_> How do I display the messages while ubuntu is loading (instead of the ubuntu loader bar graphic)
[11:27] <bsmntbombdood> How can I install the Gentoo kernel?
[11:27] <_GM_FrOdO_> ............
[11:28] <SupremeBeing> reverseblade: the ubuntu forums?
[11:28] <bsmntbombdood> Ubuntu is too slow be defualt
[11:28] <reverseblade> gleesond, I don't know. But for my experience, edgy is THE distro. I wish it replaced the dapper for LTS
[11:28] <Tachoh> take away slash from your kernel boot options
[11:28] <Tachoh> splash*
[11:28] <reverseblade> SupremeBeing, google: ubuntu forums
[11:28] <ompaul> bsmntbombdood, that would be a #gentoo question

[11:28] <sushi_> thanks a lot
[11:29] <_GM_FrOdO_> can someone help me :\
[11:29] <SupremeBeing> reverseblade: thanks
[11:29] <sushi_> gm_frodo: you need to find the installation guide.
[11:29] <reverseblade> _GM_FrOdO_, have you read the wiki ?
[11:29] <_GM_FrOdO_> yes but when I try mount
[11:29] <_GM_FrOdO_> it's say
[11:29] <bsmntbombdood> This is a #ubuntu question, I just want to know how to use the gentoo kernel in ubuntu
[11:29] <PsiKloPx> reverseblade: I've opened Konqueror and selected the network tab on the sidebar.  But as I said; nothing there but web sites and ftp's.  I'm connected to a network with one other computer (running WinXP)
[11:29] <_GM_FrOdO_> already mounted in /media/dev/hda1
[11:29] <_GM_FrOdO_> but I can't see this /media
[11:29] <_GM_FrOdO_> where is?
[11:30] <ryanakca> why do I get http://rkavanagh.homelinux.org/~ryan/mkinitrd.errpr when I run "mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.19-386 2.6.19" ?
[11:30] <kbrooks> ompaul: that wasn't called for.
[11:30] <_GM_FrOdO_> I wanna this partition in the My Computer of linux
[11:30] <kbrooks> ompaul: maybe a odd question, but we can answer anyway
[11:30] <_GM_FrOdO_> where is my CD Driver
[11:30] <_GM_FrOdO_> and etc
[11:30] <reverseblade> _GM_FrOdO_, cd /media
[11:30] <_GM_FrOdO_> :\
[11:31] <sushi_> gm_frodo: in nautilus (the file browser) CTRL+L     then /media
[11:31] <Seveas> ryanakca, because mkinitrd is ancient, you need mkinitramfs
[11:31] <Joel-Wideman> How do I set time restrictions on local logins, per user?
[11:31] <TC`> !nvidia
[11:31] <_GM_FrOdO_> but I wanna the partition in the same place of my CD Driver

[11:31] <Seveas> _GM_FrOdO_, and I want a pony
[11:31] <sushi_> gm_frodo: better to learn general unix use first --- rather than having chat users explain every detail
[11:31] <_GM_FrOdO_> seveas I can't? :\
[11:32] <G3N3SIS> Guys,I need desperate help!
[11:32] <Joel-Wideman> it's less effort to just ask the question, G3N3SIS
[11:32] <_GM_FrOdO_> hmmmmmmmm
[11:32] <_GM_FrOdO_> ..........
[11:32] <reverseblade> PsiKloPx, try to refresh it some times smb doesn't work well, also you could try smblient -L <windows_ip> i am not sure of the syntax
[11:32] <_GM_FrOdO_> cool
[11:33] <G3N3SIS> I know.  My sound is once again troubling me to the end of this world.
[11:33] <_GM_FrOdO_> thx sushi_
[11:33] <_GM_FrOdO_> :)
[11:33] <mc44> Seveas: No pony for you!
[11:33] <Seveas> !enter
[11:33] <jughead> how do you change the default view in gnome file explorer?  I would like to have a list instead of icons
[11:33] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[11:33] <Tachoh> _GM_FrOdO_: linux works a little diffrently than what you'd expect windows to. in linux most of your devices (cd drive, etc) are put under the /dev directory. for something like removable media you'll have to mount the device to a directory before you can access the files.
[11:33] <Tachoh> you do taht usinga mount command with the source and destination
[11:33] <_GM_FrOdO_> Seveas I want a ornitorrinc
[11:33] <_GM_FrOdO_> :\
[11:33] <kbrooks> jughead: see view menu - bottom
[11:33] <Tachoh> once the device is mounted you can open a terminal/gui browser and navigate there to see your files.
[11:33] <G3N3SIS> I have tried using the sources you all gave me.  I have done lspci -v and the cat methods to see if it detects my sound.  It shows me my card.  But if i type aplay -l it says no sound card or something.
[11:33] <lullabud> _GM_FrOdO_:  one interesting thing note about linux is that pretty much everything can be addressed as a file.
[11:34] <G3N3SIS> I hear the tribal beat on logout and on boot.
[11:34] <reverseblade> G3N3SIS, tried wiki ?
[11:34] <Tachoh> this channel is chaotic :)
[11:34] <G3N3SIS> Yeah.
[11:34] <G3N3SIS> I tried the wiki someone linked me earlier.  I just retried it it.
[11:34] <Tachoh> i mean, you could do support all day long :)
[11:34] <lullabud> Tachoh:  yeah.  it always gives me mental pictures of the project mayhem kitchen.
[11:34] <Joel-Wideman> What kind of soundcard, G3N3SIS?
[11:34] <G3N3SIS> one sec
[11:35] <Tachoh> i guess that's what you get for being #1
[11:35] <G3N3SIS> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[11:35] <jimcooncat> nfs exporting, would a 1GB network keep up with hard drive output?
[11:35] <lullabud> Tachoh:  if you want something less chaotic and more professional try #ubuntu-server

[11:37] <Tachoh> lullabud: just making an observation :)

[11:37] <Seveas> G3N3SIS, don't flood the channel

[11:38] <sushi_> How do I run a program in the root window ?  Thanks!
[11:38] <xor> Ubuntu makes me vomit, a lot
[11:38] <sushi_> Specifically a .swf movie
[11:38] <Boss> list
[11:38] <reverseblade> sushi_, root window ? what do you mean ?
[11:38] <sushi_> reverseblade: like on the desktop ... where nautilus is running (WAS running)
[11:38] <jughead> kbrooks, thanks but that is only doing it for each folder, is there a way to make the list format default for every single folder I open?
[11:38] <Seveas> reverseblade, probably the X rootwindow
[11:38] <Joel-Wideman> How do I set time restrictions on local logins, per user?
[11:39] <sushi_> yes the X root window
[11:39] <G3N3SIS> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/35122/ that is my pastebin thing I guess.
[11:39] <Tachoh> sushi_: if you downlaoded the swf you have two options
[11:39] <reverseblade> sushi_, I don't know how to do it, but prolly that is not what you need
[11:39] <r3tex> reverseblade, i only see a sun-java5-jre
[11:39] <Tachoh> either a) run it using adobe's free flash player (stand alone) or b) load it in a browser with flash enabled.
[11:39] <reverseblade> r3tex, try searching sdk
[11:39] <kbrooks> r3tex: no
[11:39] <lullabud> G3N3SIS:  that "available only to root" might be the reason you're not hearing sounds.
[11:39] <alek66> i get a on the sistem log loadndisdriver: loadndisdriver: load_driver(361): couldn't load driver neti2220
[11:39] <G3N3SIS> That is the sound I use VT8233.  I can't get sound from it though.  My device would be via82xx still no luck with sound.
[11:40] <alek66> how can I fix it
[11:40] <G3N3SIS> so should I login as root?
[11:40] <kbrooks> r3tex: install sun-java5-jdk
[11:40] <Seveas> !root > G3N3SIS
[11:40] <kbrooks> G3N3SIS: no.
[11:40] <G3N3SIS> Then what do I do?
[11:40] <sushi_> Tachoh: I've noticed that lots of apps have the -rootwin option available, but the flash player does not.   I want the flash game to be running on the desktop background.
[11:40] <lullabud> G3N3SIS:  try running that sound app using sudo.
[11:40] <G3N3SIS> i'm already sudo -i
[11:40] <r3tex> kbrooks, wow, weird zsh usually finds everything =P
[11:40] <lullabud> G3N3SIS:  if that works then you know that your user doesn't have rights.
[11:40] <lullabud> G3N3SIS:  hmmmmm
[11:41] <alek66> Anyone? ndiswrapper help?
[11:41] <G3N3SIS> Wait wait wait...! Got it to work
[11:41] <jimcooncat> nfs exporting, would a 1GB network keep up with hard drive output?
[11:41] <Tachoh> sushi_: you can't do that
[11:41] <lullabud> G3N3SIS:  how?
[11:41] <G3N3SIS> I had the password and everything already in use, but I was in shell.
[11:41] <Joel-Wideman> how's the alsa support for integrated sound these days? i remember it used to be very iffy
[11:41] <kbrooks> hmm
[11:41] <Tachoh> sushi_: taht's an option adobe would have to implement
[11:41] <G3N3SIS> I'm in alsamixer, but what am I supposed to do now?  That doesn't fix anything
[11:41] <Seveas> Joel-Wideman, much better than that :)
[11:41] <G3N3SIS> Thanks seveas for bringing me common sense
[11:41] <princemackenzie> sushi_ that seems intense, it just an animation or an actual game?
[11:41] <reverseblade> Joel-Wideman, de facto
[11:41] <kitche> Joel-Wideman, works for me and always have I use snd_intel8x0
[11:41] <kbrooks> how do i setup the windows key to load up apps menu thru alt+f1
[11:42] <sushi_> Tachoh: I've done it on slackware ... there was a config file in X somewhere that allowed a program to run in the root window.   I had xscreensaver running on it.  In GNOME.
[11:42] <Seveas> sushi_, xscreensaver hacks support that via the -root parameter
[11:42] <Tachoh> you've done it for a flash file?
[11:42] <Seveas> not all aps can do that afaik
[11:42] <reverseblade> kbrooks, try gconf-editor  dive in metacity keybindings
[11:42] <Tachoh> because i am 99% sure the flash player will not allow that
[11:42] <sushi_> Seveas: ok thanks, so it is application specific.  I was told that you can run almost any program in the rootwin
[11:42] <G3N3SIS> I got the alsamixer to work, does anyone know what i'm supposed to do to make sound come out?
[11:43] <strabes> G3N3SIS: unmute everything
[11:43] <Seveas> sushi_, maybe, I said 'afaik' and am not sure :)
[11:43] <apokryphos> ubotu: sound | G3N3SIS
[11:43] <ubotu> G3N3SIS: 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
[11:43] <G3N3SIS> k thanks strabes
[11:43] <electro> anybody have a link to the ubuntu live-cd...haven't been able to find a recent one
[11:43] <gradin> whats a coommand to flush a log file?
[11:43] <strabes> G3N3SIS: it's a bit easier with alsamixer-gui
[11:43] <sushi_> I will post on the forums thanks guys!
[11:43] <Tachoh> sushi_: you're wlecome to prove me wrong however, if it's possible i'd like to know about it
[11:43] <mc44> electro: how recent?
[11:43] <kitche> electro: releases.ubuntu.com it's the desktop-install cd
[11:43] <G3N3SIS> how do I use the gui?
[11:43] <electro> 6.x
[11:43] <Seveas> gradin, many services flush apps when you snd them SIGHUP
[11:43] <sushi_> Tachoh: I'll let you know for sure
[11:43] <Tachoh> coolness
[11:43] <gradin> ...
[11:43] <reverseblade> electro, live CD = ubuntu Cd , there is only 1 CD
[11:44] <gradin> i just need to flush one specific log file...
[11:44] <electro> k, thanks
[11:44] <Seveas> gradin, which?
[11:44] <gradin> say /var/log/fail2ban
[11:44] <G3N3SIS> alright, so I unmuted everything.  It still says in the top right that the speaker has a mute on it.
[11:44] <strabes> G3N3SIS: sudo apt-get install alsamixer-gui I believe
[11:44] <G3N3SIS> k thanks strabes
[11:45] <Seveas> gradin, and which application writes to it?
[11:45] <gradin> Seveas fail2ban...
[11:45] <G3N3SIS> couldn't find package strabes
[11:45] <Joel-Wideman> That might be an unavailable feature, G3N3SIS - like, say, an audio output the soundcard doesn't have
[11:45] <Seveas> gradin, ok, then just restart that thing
[11:45] <strabes> G3N3SIS: sudo apt-cache search alsamixer
[11:45] <strabes> G3N3SIS: there should be something about a gui in tehre
[11:45] <gradin> Seveas how do i do that?
[11:46] <strabes> G3N3SIS: then sudo apt-get install it
[11:46] <sushi_> It's alsamixergui
[11:46] <Seveas> gradin, no idea, i don't know that app
[11:46] <kbrooks> strabes: that does not require root (searching the cache)
[11:46] <javaJake> gradin, whatcha working on?
[11:46] <whyameye> how do I get sendmail to send mail successfully through my ISP's SMTP?
[11:46] <strabes> kbrooks: thanks
[11:46] <strabes> G3N3SIS: actually the program is gnome-alsamixer
[11:46] <reverseblade> whyameye, sendmail program ?
[11:46] <PsiKloPx> reverseblade: No joy with the network.  The stupid thing is that I've done it before...I just don't remember how I did it!
[11:47] <strabes> G3N3SIS: sudo apt-get install gnome-alsamixer
[11:47] <gradin> ...
[11:47] <reverseblade> PsiKloPx, man smbclient, test there first
[11:47] <Raskall> how do I change the character set in ubuntu? I have american keyboard, but need norwegian. I only have command line access.
[11:47] <G3N3SIS> Do you know where it installed it at?
[11:47] <kitche> whyameye: well you have to set the client to do that but you can have sendmail grab your mail and hold it for you if you want, but you might want to look up relay server
[11:47] <javaJake> Raskall, System -> Administration -> Keyboard
[11:48] <gradin> i found out that the apache protection for fail2ban has been working everyday since i started it about 2 weeks ago and has been entering an error message cuz it couldn't access the access.log for the apache webserver
[11:48] <javaJake> Raskall, System -> Preferences -> Keyboard
[11:48] <javaJake> Sorry
[11:48] <Raskall> javaJake: erm.. I only have command line access to the system
[11:48] <gradin> so everysecond its been adding aline to the logfile...
[11:48] <ompaul> doh!
[11:48] <javaJake> Raskall, Ah, well now, that's a different matter altogether...
[11:48] <G3N3SIS> whoa, wait
[11:48] <levander> Someone can tell me how to, from the command line, figure out which kernel packages I have installed?  I don't want to know the kernel versions, just like if I have linux-686-smp or image-686-smp or what not.
[11:48] <gradin> for about 2 weeks...
[11:48] <mc44> openexit: uber ban!
[11:48] <G3N3SIS> it won't let me open it
[11:48] <G3N3SIS> unless i open thru shell
[11:48] <gradin> Seveas i restarted it and that didn't work...
[11:49] <kbrooks> AfterDeath owns AntiSpamBot ompaul
[11:49] <gradin> is there no way to just blank the file...?
[11:49] <Seveas> kbrooks, we know
[11:49] <reverseblade> levander, uname -r
[11:49] <javaJake> Raskall, let me do some googling...
[11:49] <kbrooks> Seveas: kk
[11:49] <javaJake> Raskall, do you know about lynx, and centericq?
[11:49] <Tachoh> levander: dpkg -l | grep kernel
[11:49] <Seveas> gradin, flushing a file isn't blanking a file....
[11:49] <javaJake> Raskall, those are excellent browser and IM programs for the command-line
[11:49] <Seveas> gradin, if you want to blank it, do this
[11:50] <Seveas> : > /var/log/yourlogfilehere
[11:50] <G3N3SIS> k everything has a greenbox under it
[11:50] <Raskall> javaJake: I know about both, yes. :)
[11:50] <maxamillion> who here is running amd64?
[11:50] <Raskall> maxamillion: I am
