[14:16] <nyaa> Brokenclorkwork if that isnt the sort of thing you are going for, then I can't really visualize it heh =)
[14:16] <rakudave> daredevilthere: use ClamAV, "sudo apt-get install clamav"
[14:16] <SuPeRhAm> he left already i think miha
[14:16] <BrokenClockwork> nyaa: So just the docking methode?
[14:17] <SuPeRhAm> saurabh_
[14:17] <SuPeRhAm> [01:15:32] <miha> savvas: as client or server?
[14:17] <SuPeRhAm> [01:15:39] <miha> ups
[14:17] <miha> SuPeRhAm: i noticed yes, but i press tab and enter without checking
[14:17] <Appiah> I dont want my users to be notified about updates , only root and sudoers. How can I do that?
[14:17] <miha> hehe
[14:17] <davetarmac> is anyone familiar with Adium on OS X?
[14:17] <cellofellow> "Unable to read salt value from user's .ecryptfsrc file; using default" what's that mean?
[14:17] <KDB9000> How do I change from the seahorse-agent back to the ssh-agent for ssh passphrase for keyed ssh sessions?
[14:17] <SuPeRhAm> tab abuse miha :P
[14:18] <saurabh_>  i have ubuntu 8.10 desktop how can i use the ftp service in it

[14:18] <davetarmac> actually - another question - in Software Sources on the 3rd Party tab, there is a load of unchecked sources, can they be removed?
[14:18] <scizzo-> saurabh_: you have asked the same question 4 times within 4 minutes.......and someone has answered
[14:18] <saurabh_> hello

[14:25] <edulix> hi
[14:25] <edulix> what file do I need to edit to make ubuntu reload the ath_pci driver in suspend/resume? I need to do it manually everytime..
[14:25] <bleh123> anyone have experience installing 64bit wireless drivers w/ ndiswrapper / driver loader?
[14:26] <connar> hi edu
[14:26] <MaarekStele> what's the command to get the alternate install list?  It'll show postfix, LAMP, and others
[14:26] <sue> Ok, I installed via Wubi, and I want to get to the root, so I can get to my windows files, how can I do that?
[14:26] <connar> can u give me a command to check if my machine is 32 bit or 64 bit?
[14:26] <erUSUL> MaarekStele: tasksel ?
[14:26] <DB42> i've got a few files on my FS that i can't delete (tells me permission denied, but it's owned by my user and i got "rw" on it) what can it be ?
[14:26] <MaarekStele> erUSUL, I'll try that, thanks
[14:26] <bleh123> connar what proc do you have
[14:27] <miha> connar: cat /proc/cpuinfo tells some info?
[14:27] <erUSUL> connar: you want to know what ubuntu you have installed or if your cpu supports 64 bits ??
[14:27] <MaarekStele> erUSUL, perfect... making a mental note
[14:27] <connar> yes erUSUL
[14:27] <rakudave> Prisla-Chan: If it doesn't, it won't... probably requires some driver only available for window$... I have those buttons too. You could try running "xev", which displays all button presses/releases. If it doesn't show up there, It won't work without a driver
[14:27] <senux> hhelp mee
[14:27] <senux> hhelp mee
[14:27] <erUSUL> connar: yes? you want to know the former or the later?
[14:27] <connar> actually i have a debian package which says wrong architecture
[14:27] <Myrtti> senux: just ask
[14:28] <DB42> i've got a few files on my FS that i can't delete (tells me permission denied, but it's owned by my user and i got "rw" on it) what can it be ? (it's on another partition tho)
[14:28] <erUSUL> connar: uname -m
[14:28] <connar> erUSUL : thanx
[14:28] <MacGyverNL> I've got a little issue. Any of you guys ever use Ubuntu's remote desktop to remote into windows boxes? You see, I've got a Windows Vista running the Colemak beta, and an Ubuntu (which I configured to Colemak during install) which I use to RDP into that box.
[14:28] <MacGyverNL> Only problem is, when the keyboard setting on the windows box is "Colemak", a double qwerty -> colemak conversion takes place.
[14:28] <MacGyverNL> i.e. Where normally, qwerty "F" becomes colemak "T", now qwerty "F" becomes "G" because first it's converted to colemakt "T", and then on the windows machine I guess that "T" is interpreted as qwerty and converted to the colemak "G".
[14:28] <MacGyverNL> Any thoughts on where the problem's cause is, Ubuntu-side or Windows-side, and a possible fix for the Ubuntu-side?
[14:28] <FloodBot1> MacGyverNL: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:28] <connar> thats what i was looking for
[14:28] <erUSUL> DB42: maybe you do ot have write permissions on the  folder
[14:28] <senux> i have problem
[14:28] <senux> with pbx
[14:28] <senux> wget problem
[14:28] <Myrtti> !enter | senux
[14:28] <miha> DB42: maybe a running program/service uses it?
[14:29] <senux> all links i wget
[14:29] <DB42> erUSUL: yeah, thanks !
[14:29] <senux> ok ok sory
[14:29] <connar> erUSUl : i686 refers to a 32 bit machine right?
[14:29] <erUSUL> connar: yes
[14:29] <connar> erUSUL: thanx
[14:29] <paul68> how van I check what type of fans there are running on my system can't find it through lshw?
[14:29] <senux> i have problem with pbx , wget problem s all links i wget says ....:80 connection refused
[14:29] <erUSUL> connar: not machine but install the machine may be 64 bit capable but you have 32 bit ubuntu installed
[14:29] <s3a> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-restricted-modules/+bug/289912  --> i installed linux-backports-modules-intrepid and rebooted and my wireless still doesn't work (i have the HP G50 laptop with the 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01) wireless card
[14:29]  * miha wonders if intel core2 duo should use 64 bit yet.. i dont have that much RAM (2gb) or programs to need 64 bit?
[14:30] <scizzo-> senux: and its not a dns issue?
[14:30] <zippel> hi, i have ubuntu 8.04.1-server installed with kernel 2.6.24-19 but after the installation my saata-cdrom does not work :/ i found some hints that the problem comes with 2.6.24 but i dont know it for shure can someone help plz?
[14:30] <scizzo-> senux: if you ping www.google.com as a example
[14:30] <oCean_> senux: i told you to setup your networking first
[14:30] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: are you using 64bit?
[14:30] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, no
[14:30] <mrwoody> Hi *. Sorry for the faq. Does anyone know when we will see kde 4.2 in ubuntu?
[14:30] <Chousuke> miha: that's really up to you; I wouldn't use 64-bit yet though; but I hear it works pretty well overall.
[14:30] <miha> Chousuke: same:)
[14:30] <Seveas> mrwoody, april, in jaunty
[14:30] <senux>  ping www.google.com
[14:31] <senux> 64 bytes from cf-in-f99.google.com (<IP_ADDRESS>): icmp_seq=1 ttl=240 time=22.4 ms
[14:31] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: then you did something wrong,b ecause i've set that device up on 4 different machiens w/ that chipset, and it works fine
[14:31] <oobe> i have a problem with multiple tabs in firefox i want to keep open but i opened a link to a disgusting site that wont close and is force ing me to start a fresh session unless i kill that one page and ctrl + w wont work
[14:31] <senux> any idea?
[14:31] <MaarekStele> is there anyway to make the "rmmod pcspkr" command to stick after reboots?
[14:31] <connar> erUSUL: is there a way to check if my machine is 32 bit or 64...and another way to check if the Ubuntu installed is 32 or 64 bit
[14:31] <miha> connar less /proc/cpuinfo should give you info on first question
[14:31] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: did you disable the restricted driver?
[14:31] <miha> connar: then you google given processor
[14:32] <Seveas> connar, uname -a
[14:32] <senux> scizzo- : any idea?
[14:32] <scizzo-> senux: and when you surf normaly from that machine that has problems with :80 what happens then?
[14:32] <erUSUL> connar: for the later you already have the answer your ubuntu onstall is i686 == 32 bit for the former do « grep --color ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo » if you see something highlighted ( lm to be precise) your cpu has long mode == 64 bits
[14:32] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, o i went to hardware drivers and now it says it sees it!!! :D BUT it says "This driver is activated but not currently in use"
[14:32] <scizzo-> senux: pages comes up and everything?
[14:33] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: do you have one or two options there for atheros device?
[14:33] <Seveas> connar, if /proc/cpuinfo has 'lm' in the flag fields the machine is 64bit. Uname -a will tell you if you have a 64bit os
[14:33] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, the only option i c is "deactivate"
[14:34] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: is that option "Support for Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards"
[14:34] <scizzo-> senux: or what happens if you as a example do: wget http://www.gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-files/98651-1.png
[14:34] <scizzo-> senux: do you get the same error from that address and so on?
[14:34] <senux> nothing page
[14:34] <senux> nothing all
[14:34] <senux> just says failed
[14:34] <connar> seveas: clflush size    : 64......wat does this indiacte?
[14:35] <scizzo-> senux: no page comes up if you go to www.google.com for example?
[14:35] <scizzo-> senux: I mean not using wget but using firefox or something like that?
[14:35] <scizzo-> senux: because I hope you are not surfing with wget...that won't really work well
[14:35] <connar> seveas : u there?
[14:35] <Seveas> connar, no idea. Definitely not whether it's 64bit though :)
[14:35] <ode> hello, how can i stop nautilus opening windows when i plug my mp3 player in?
[14:36] <erUSUL> ode: on nautilus preferences removable media
[14:36] <kriss3d> uhmm anyone know how to get kernel sources for kubuntu ?? or is that included in the install somhow ?
[14:36] <Seveas> ode, system -> preferences -> removable drives and media
[14:36] <tomodachi> krazed:  yes there is
[14:36] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, http://img509.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshothardwaredriveof5.png
[14:36] <connar> seveas : i followed ur procedure and what i saw 64 was in the clflush field
[14:37] <erUSUL> connar: for the later you already have the answer your ubuntu onstall is i686 == 32 bit for the former do « grep --color ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo » if you see something highlighted ( lm to be precise) your cpu has long mode == 64 bits <<<<<< do this
[14:37] <Seveas> connar, you need to look only at the flags field and look for the 'word' lm
[14:37] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: have you restarted since installing the backport modules?
[14:37] <ode> i don't have that option in preferences
[14:37] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, ya i just came back from a reboot
[14:37] <erUSUL> ode: it is now in nautilus preferences
[14:37] <ode> i remember it in a previous install
[14:38] <ode> ah thanks
[14:38] <erUSUL> ode: open a nautilus window ( Places>Documents for example) go to Edit>Preferences the last tab
[14:38] <genii> !info linux-source | kriss3d
[14:38] <connar> erUSUL : it returned me nothing
[14:38] <mithraic> So I'm about to replace my ATI video card with an Nvidia. Any special advice? I figure I'll turn off the ATI driver, then shut down, install, and hope for the best.
[14:38] <askand> I have a 64bit CPU, do you recommend me to install 32bit or 64bit Ubuntu? What problems could arise with 64bit?
[14:38] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: youv'e done something that isn't right.. just can't figure out what... every time i've set that device up(and as said, i've done it seveal times), you'll have two options there, one is deactivated, the other activated.. yours shows it is activated properly....
[14:38] <erUSUL> connar: then your cpu is not 64 bit
[14:38] <connar> erUSUL : i m back to the prompt
[14:38] <connar> erUSUL : u sure abt that?
[14:39] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: what is the output of uname -a
[14:39] <connar> erUSUL : if it doesnt return me anything then it is a 32 bit machine?
[14:39] <erUSUL> connar: if you typed the command as i have typed it here yes i'm sure
[14:39] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, Linux deniz-laptop 2.6.27-11-generic #1 SMP Thu Jan 29 19:24:39 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
[14:39] <ode> erUSUL: thanks i have it :)
[14:39] <erUSUL> ode: no problem
[14:39] <connar> erUSUL : i just copy pasted it
[14:40] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: what all did you try to get that device working?... before stumbling upon installing the linux-backports
[14:40] <connar>  grep --color ' lm ' /proc/cpuinfo...thats the command i typed
[14:40] <erUSUL> connar: just make sure the ' ' are the right ones
[14:40] <senux> hhelo
[14:40] <spektrum> hi ppl
[14:40] <senux> im not use fro wget
[14:40] <etb> how can i instruct thunderbird to get all msgs from the server, and not just the new ones?
[14:40] <senux> im not use surfing with wget
[14:40] <senux> i need to wget some files
[14:40] <connar> erUSUL : i made sure they are single quotes
[14:40] <spektrum> I got a strange problem
[14:40] <erUSUL> connar: then your cpu is not 64 bit
[14:40] <spektrum> Sound is not working
[14:41] <scizzo-> senux: did you try the wget command I gave you?
[14:41] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, well nothing rely but i did read that vista somehow deactivates the wireless card on the internet but i dont no if whoever said that was right (this laptop had vista pre-installed but i removed it)
[14:41] <spektrum> when I click on test hardware
[14:41] <erUSUL> connar: which cpu model do you have ?
[14:41] <spektrum> it tells that it is testing ICH7
[14:41] <spektrum> wtf is that?
[14:41] <wemdowemd> Old time ubuntu user here returning to attempt a bit of a 'project'. After realising the security problems in Windows, though much reduced in Vista are still an issue, I want to see if I can make a totally 'locked down' ubuntu install. As in, airtight to a ridiculous degree. Encrypted system, encrypted internet access, tight firewall control, the lot. I want to see if linux can live up to...
[14:41] <wemdowemd> ...its security expectations ;) My question is whether there are tutorials on how to do this sort of thing, or where I should start.
[14:41] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: wel, even if vista deactivated it, that shouldn't effect linux.
[14:41] <connar> erUSUL : i have a 2.6 ghz intel pentium 4 machine
[14:42] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: do you have a button or something on your laptop, to turn wireless on/off
[14:42] <erUSUL> connar: p4 are not 64 bit
[14:42] <spektrum> does anyone have a clue about my prob?
[14:42] <ode> another question? I'm importing some photos in gthumb, should I have 'rotate images physically' ticked?  what does this option mean?
[14:42] <Appiah> wemdowemd: lockdown how?
[14:42] <connar> erUSUL : okay
[14:42] <Appiah> wemdowemd: biggest security problem is still the user(s)
[14:42] <connar> erUSUL : then what machines are 64 bits
[14:43] <connar> erUSUL : the quadcores/
[14:43] <connar> ?
[14:43] <erUSUL> connar: some pentium D all Core 2 duo Athlons64 opterons etc...
[14:43] <erUSUL> connar: i have a althlon x2 3800+ it is 64 bit
[14:44] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, yes there is and i just tried pressing it and before i go any further (in vista when the wireless was working, the button had blue light and when it doesn't work it had oprange light, in ubuntu, it always has orange light but on the positive side of things, now that i go on network-manager-gnome on my top panel it says "wireless networks" although it doesn't actually show any wireless networks
[14:44] <kriss3d> anyone know how do access the entire harddrive when using wubi ?
[14:44] <SuPeRhAm> any amd 3k+ is 64bit
[14:45] <SuPeRhAm> sept for socket a versions
[14:45] <Bou> hi
[14:45] <wemdowemd> Appiah: I intend to have the system partition on an external drive, booted from something like a livecd - this is to avoid playing with my laptop BIOS. The filesystem and everything else on said HD will be encrypted. Once that bit is done and its installed, I expect the internet stuff should be easy - firestarter, Tor etc. It's really the initial install I want advice on. How to put the...
[14:45] <wemdowemd> ...filesystem on an external drive, boot-encrypted but without requiring changing the BIOS on the laptop. Except to tell it to preferentially boot from a CD/USB
[14:45] <Bou> how can I disable the automatic hibernation?
[14:46] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: well, is your essid hidden by chance?
[14:46] <connar> erUSUL : what exactly is the difference between a 32 bit and a 64 bit machine?
[14:46] <nyaa> bou it should be somewhere in system > preferences > power management
[14:46] <wemdowemd> Given standalone USB OS's are possible, like BlackDog, I think what I want is achievable.
[14:46] <Appiah> boot from external shouldnt be any problem , just select your device from the boot menu wemdowemd
[14:46] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, essid=the name of my network? if so, no, it isn't hidden, not to mention i'd see my neighbours' networks
[14:46] <failers> is there a console command to diasble laptop touchpad?
[14:46] <Appiah> just insert the CD and choose the external drive to install on
[14:46] <Appiah> when asked about encrypted home dir choose yes
[14:46] <erUSUL> connar: this is turning way offtopic for the channel you will find a lot of info on the net
[14:47] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: i really don't know.. can't explain t.. just know i've set up that device several times, w/o issue, on several different PC's (mostly acer's)
[14:47] <s3a> failers, system-->preferences-->mouse-->touchpad
[14:47] <wemdowemd> Appiah: And from then on, whenever PC is booted with external plugged in, it preferentially loads the (passworded) ubuntu install?
[14:47] <Bou> nyaa:thx
[14:47] <connar> erUSUL : i understand but i just need the basic difference
[14:47] <failers> s3a: i want it in "console command" so i can me a bash script to auto turn of on startup :P
[14:47] <connar> erUSUL : too much info on the net
[14:48] <Appiah> wemdowemd: if you dont wanna change the bios boot order you gonna have to select your external drive from the Bios boot menu (F12 on many comps nowdays)
[14:48] <Appiah> each time you start the computer
[14:48] <erUSUL> connar:  a 32 bit cpu uses 32 bit wide words to operate and a 64 bit use 64 bit words the registers the execution paths etc all is "wider" on a 64 bit cpu
[14:48] <s3a> failers, wait i dint understand wat u said too well but wat i told u, disables touchpad on startup too
[14:48] <rainmanp7> is there a ubuntu developer channel ?
[14:49] <failers> s3a: oh it does ok
[14:49] <oCean_> rainmanp7: #ubuntu-devel
[14:49] <rainmanp7> ty
[14:50] <senux> helppppp meeeeeee
[14:50] <senux> please
[14:50] <carpii_> what package contains all the build tools? build-essentials or something ?
[14:50] <connar> seveas : in the fleags field the lm field is not highlighted
[14:50] <wemdowemd> Appiah: OK, that's fine. It was the trouble I had with GRUB (or to be more exact, Windows throwing its teddy out after GRUB went in) that originally stopped me dual-booting ubuntu. That's as much a reason for my keeping it off the laptop as security is. Can you tell me what encryption prog the ubuntu installer uses? Could I use Truecrypt?
[14:50] <nyaa> senux whats the problem you're having?
[14:50] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, do u no where i can keep looking for a solution because this is the closest ive ever gotten to getting it to work
[14:51] <scizzo-> senux: I have asked you if you have tried the command I gave you
[14:51] <Appiah> wemdowemd: yes there is truecrypt , if you enable the encryption during the install when asked I have no idea what app it uses
[14:51] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: honestly, no.. cuz everything i've ever read, and what ive done, says it shouldve worked
[14:51] <Appiah> I'm sure you can find out on the wiki
[14:51] <scizzo-> senux: we are trying to help you.......
[14:52] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: you didn't run any black list commands did you.
[14:52] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, IT WORKS!!!
[14:52] <Mohammad[B]> how to i can set a proxy (SOCKS Host) in Terminal for tunneling ?
[14:52] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[14:52] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, i dint hold the wireless button long enuf thats y!!!
[14:52] <IndyGunFreak> s3a: ok.
[14:52] <senux> scizzo- : sory sory
[14:53] <rainmanp7> Is there a way that I can learn about building a driver to run in ubuntu ? or join a driver builder help team ?
[14:53] <senux> scizzo- : what command wget
[14:53] <scizzo-> senux: or what happens if you as a example do: wget http://www.gnome-look.org/CONTENT/content-files/98651-1.png
[14:53] <scizzo-> senux: try that
[14:54] <pos69sum> just installed intrepid on a dell latitude d600 laptop

[14:54] <pos69sum> not able to get a connection using either wired or wireless nics
[14:54] <wemdowemd> Appiah: Yeah, back in the day I seem to remember people getting it to work using Truecrypt as the boot-decrypting program. Thanks for all your help. Do you know of any other security issues I should consider? One of the main annoyances of Windows is its tendency to keep unstated usage tracks all over the place; is there a list or something of all the usage tracks ubuntu generates?
[14:54] <miha> rainmanp7: google found this link http://kerneltrap.org/node/7636
[14:54] <pos69sum> nic is a broadcom - i know this requires ndiswrapper setup, but i can't even get networking on wired nic
[14:55] <rainmanp7> miha thank you
[14:55] <pos69sum> any suggestions?
[14:55] <Yellow_dog> I'm back again here
[14:55] <miha> rainmanp7: google more for kernel team, that's not ubuntu specific
[14:55] <miha> rainmanp7: ubuntu just patches kernel if needed

[14:57] <askand>  I have a 64bit CPU, do you recommend me to install 32bit or 64bit Ubuntu? What problems could arise with 64bit?
[14:57] <connar> askand : how to format a pendrive
[14:58] <scizzo-> senux: ok then try: wget http://<IP_ADDRESS>/CONTENT/content-files/98651-1.png
[14:58] <vtec> someone can help me?
[14:58] <Yellow_dog> I read some where that kernel 2.6.28 have the HP 6730s problem fixed
[14:58] <askand> connar: how cill that be a problem?
[14:58] <_PriChan_> can someone help me? shutdown button won't work =/
[14:58] <scizzo-> !ask | vtec
[14:59] <connar> askand : i need to know the command for formatting a pendrive
[14:59] <vtec> oks
[14:59] <dayo_> _PriChan_: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[14:59] <askand>  connar: aha, why are you asking me? :) anyway, install gparted from synaptic and format from there
[14:59] <dayo_> _PriChan: or in your terminal: sudo shutdown -h now
[14:59] <askand>  connar: it will be in the adminmenu
[15:00] <scizzo-> dayo_: I think he wants to hibernate the machine
[15:00] <dayo_> _PriChan_: or in your terminal: sudo shutdown -h now

[15:00] <senux> same
[15:00] <dayo_> scizzo-: i see
[15:00] <scizzo-> senux: you have a network problem I believe
[15:00] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, thx
[15:00] <s3a> IndyGunFreak, is this supposed to NOT work on 64 bit?
[15:00] <scizzo-> senux: you need to set the network up properly before you can do anything else
[15:00] <dayo_> _PriChan_: nevermind, then
[15:00] <s3a> does anyone here know how to make my swap partition mount by itself on boot and not need me to do manually mount it?
[15:00] <scizzo-> senux: I believe that even: sudo apt-get update won't work for you
[15:01] <oCean_> senux: i told you to learn basic (networking) setup first
[15:01] <Yellow_dog> so I try one to upgrade my kernel from 2.6.27-11 to 2.6.28 but the system became unstable
[15:01] <scizzo-> _PriChan_: what are you exactly trying to do with the power button and what result at you expecting?
[15:01] <Talker> i have installed ubuntu on computer, but i ca't get the internet to work. I'm connected to the wlan, with high quality and strenght, but no internet. Looks like some app has set nameserver to <IP_ADDRESS> in the resolv.conf file. I know that there is internet on the wlan, cause i have windows computers using it. What shall i do?

[15:03] <ben____> hey.. any ruby users? is there a quick way to install 1.9.1 on 8.10 or do I need to build from source?
[15:03] <miha> vtec: try differnet mirror
[15:03] <Yellow_dog> can somebody help please?
[15:03] <vtec> i  try update ubuntu
[15:03] <easwar> Yellow_dog, using Jaunty?
[15:03] <senux> scizzo- : thanks for sugesttion
[15:03] <erUSUL> Yellow_dog: how you did the upgrade you buided your own kernel ?
[15:03] <miha> vtec: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors
[15:03] <senux> scizzo- : but how to setting up the network
[15:04] <vtec> thanks
[15:04] <erUSUL> Yellow_dog: your configuration is not supported if you use your own kernel your on your own
[15:04] <_PriChan_> Yellow_dog: I want click on shutdown button (@ applets, top-right corner) and my pc shutdown :) Actually it goes to login screen =/
[15:04] <scizzo-> senux: its a server setup?
[15:04] <miha> vtec for example i'm in slovenia, but si.archive.ubuntu... works horrible (no idea who hosts that), de.archive...(german mirror) works so much better
[15:04] <miha> vtec: try countries you think are 'close' to you in network
[15:04] <scizzo-> senux: it depends a bit on what you want if its a server
[15:04] <senux> scizzo- : yes
[15:04] <miha> vtec: traceroute might help
[15:04] <vtec> yeah,
[15:04] <lecta> is there something in ubuntu like the cluster suite from Redhat?
[15:04] <oCean_> ben____: apt-cache search gives 1.8 as well as 1.9
[15:04] <_PriChan_> Yellow_dog it used to happen =/
[15:05] <miha> vtec: /etc/apt/sources.list ... and apt-get update after that
[15:05] <vtec> how i can miss that
[15:05] <Yellow_dog> erUSUL: no, I use KernelCheck for upgrading my kernel
[15:05] <vtec> i will change
[15:05] <ben____> oCean_: yeah, the stock pkg gave me 1.9.0...
[15:05] <vtec> sorry my english is very poor
[15:05] <vtec> im braziliam
[15:05] <oCean_> ben____: sorry, didn't see the minor .1 ..
[15:05] <vtec> i will try after lauch
[15:05] <vtec> see ya
[15:05] <miha> vtec: ok
[15:05] <vtec> thanks one more time
[15:06] <_PriChan_> vtec: me too :D
[15:06] <scizzo-> senux: you want to get IP using dhcp or so?
[15:06] <ben____> oCean_: actually 1.9.0 segfault for me right away
[15:06] <ben____> which is a bit crap :)
[15:06] <senux> scizzo- : maybe for dhcp
[15:06] <Yellow_dog> Prichan: I don't know exactly what is happen... need to check your system log
[15:06] <erUSUL> Yellow_dog: yeap a third party package that automatically build the kernel for you is the same situation... basically you're on your own ( disclaimer i use my own kernels too)
[15:07] <Caesi> miha: hullo, u there?
[15:07] <miha> Caesi: yes?
[15:07] <oCean_> ben____: i agree.. however I have no clue how to help you out there :/

[15:08] <wemdowemd> I have an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.2Ghz processor. Which alternative CD should I choose? The amd64 one? Or should I just stick with a 32bit OS?
[15:08] <miha> Caesi: well is file there?
[15:08] <miha> and directory?
[15:08] <Caesi> huh?
[15:08] <easwar> wemdowemd, You can take the amd64
[15:08] <miha> ls /boot/grub
[15:08] <miha> it should be on your ubuntu partition
[15:08] <thrope> hi - i just installed 8.04 server and did all updates - now I have a situation where kernel is built with gcc 4.2.3 but the installed version is 4.2.4 - seems a bit shoddy for a LTS release... is there a way round this? (how to downgrade gcc back to 4.2.3?
[15:08] <erUSUL> wemdowemd: that's up to you to decide...  what amount of ram do you have installed ?
[15:09] <Caesi> hmm.. if not should I just create it?
[15:09] <Yellow_dog> Yellow_dog: I'm not an expert on linux, please what can I do for get my wirelless on in my box?
[15:09] <wemdowemd> erUSUL: 2gb
[15:09] <_PriChan_> Yellow_dog: bad news =/ Im not on my pc right now =/ kay ill back with it maybe :)
[15:09] <miha> Caesi: not really, it's some sort of binary data grub writes on MBR/partition
[15:09] <miha> it should be under your ubuntu partition in boot directory
[15:09] <jtaji> !info gcc hardy | thrope
[15:09] <erUSUL> wemdowemd: well then you do not need 64 bit to access all the ram you can install whichever you choose
[15:10] <Caesi> miha: hmm I'm just accessing the Linux drive via Windows and can't find the file
[15:10] <jtaji> thrope: not sure how you got 4.2.4, as you see the official version is still 4.2.3
[15:10] <care-bear> can somebody help how to record sound with gnome-sound-recorder. I have set different kind of settings but still doesn't works :(
[15:10] <miha> Caesi: do you have seperate boot partition?
[15:10] <miha> in that case, mount that too
[15:10] <thrope> jtaji: just did aptitude install build-essential on a fresh install
[15:10] <tyler_d> looking for a some gui app for the "diff" command?
[15:10] <Yellow_dog> PriChan: ok take a look on your log system
[15:10] <wemdowemd> erUSUL: I'm just thinking of the problems 64 bit windows has, namely a lack of 64 bit programs out, and compatability problems with some of the 32 bit ones. Does those problems also exist for linux? Would I get any processing speed benefits with the 64bit version?
[15:10] <daredevilthere> How do i compile kernel from source
[15:10] <Caesi> miha: no
[15:10] <anglxs> hello everybody
[15:11] <Yellow_dog> hello anglxs
[15:11] <Caesi> at least not that I know of :)
[15:11] <senux> scizzo- : sudo: dpkg-reconfigure: command not found
[15:11] <ViperBorg> wemdowemd, I've been using 64-bit Linux for about a year now. No problems with drivers / programs.
[15:11] <ViperBorg> 32-bit only programs still run fine.
[15:11] <scizzo-> senux: ummmmmmmmm not possible
[15:12] <_PriChan_> Yellow_dog: Thanks :)
[15:12] <scizzo-> senux: I do not believe that error
[15:12] <Yellow_dog> erUSUL: sorry... I'm not an expert on linux, please what can I do for get my wirelless on in my box?
[15:12] <erUSUL> wemdowemd: almost alll free programs have 64 bit versions flash work either installing the prepackaged 32 bit + 64 bit wrapper or via the 64 bit beta version from adobe the only problem i can think of right know is the java firefox plugin
[15:12] <nightrid3r> senux space between dpkg and -reconfigure
[15:12] <Yellow_dog> PriChan: you're welcome
[15:12] <lecta> Hello ubuntu peoples - can someone post the most popular linux sites?
[15:12]  * ViperBorg is away.
[15:12] <wemdowemd> erUSUL: So anybody with the 64bit install gets no java?
[15:13] <erUSUL> Yellow_dog: you need the apropiate driver... ubuntu kernels come eith extra drivers... maybe that's the reason your wireless do not work with your custom kernel
[15:13] <scizzo-> senux: you are typing it in a terminal and the whole thing: sudo dpkg-reconfigure dhclient
[15:13] <scizzo-> senux: like that
[15:13] <daredevilthere> How to i compile kernel
[15:13] <scizzo-> senux: exactly like that
[15:13] <Squid> i got a problem .. i have to set up a Squid server on ubuntu. i've just done it on Windows server 2000 and 2003 .. so i know how to set it ... but i can't open the squid.config file .. it's says that i do not have enought rights to open it ...
[15:14] <s3a> wemdowemd, linux x86_64 has java according to google
[15:14] <Squid> can someone tell me how to open and modify the squid.config ?
[15:14] <Yellow_dog> Is there somebody who have the same problem like me with HP 6730s lap top?
[15:14] <zash> Squid: sudoedit
[15:14] <erUSUL> wemdowemd: you have java and there is a alternative java plugin for firefox the only thing lackin is the *official* *Sun* java *plugin* for mozill/firefox
[15:14] <wemdowemd> Oh, well I'm not too fussed about that. 64bit it is then, thanks everyone
[15:14] <SmokeyD> hey people. If I want to use multiple ip addresses on the same nic, should eth0 have the first ip address and eth0:0 the second one? or eth0:0 the first and eth0:1 the second?
[15:15] <Krissed> any if you ubuntu gurus who know how to remove or possibly reinstall wifi drivers ?
[15:15] <erUSUL> Squid: use sudo nano /path/to/squid.config
[15:15] <Yellow_dog> erUSUL: When I run ubuntu first on my lap top I get 2 issue to solve: 1 about the sound and another about the wireless
[15:15] <erUSUL> SmokeyD: it does not matter afaics
[15:15] <SmokeyD> erUSUL: ok, thanks
[15:16] <SmokeyD> erUSUL: what is afaics? I know afaik, but what is the cs?
[15:16] <erUSUL> SmokeyD: cs --> can see
[15:16] <senux> scizzo- : so what command in root i use
[15:16] <SmokeyD> erUSUL: :) thanks
[15:17] <Squid> tnx
[15:17] <Yellow_dog> eruSUL: sound problem was solved by updating my ALSA driver... but wireless persist to not work

[15:25] <saurabh> can anyonre tell me where do we need to keep the file in windows xp for sending it to remote system using put command
[15:25] <Chousuke> avuton: did you try simply removing xorg.conf?
[15:26] <oCean_> lorenzosu: use cut on the basename. See simple example: http://paste.ubuntu.com/112825/
[15:26] <avuton> Chousuke: yeah, that won't work; it completely misconfigures her display otherwise. Besides, I do know that it's technically being caused by the intel video driver.

[15:27] <MetroGnome> How can I run ubunty on my computer?
[15:27]  * MetroGnome is a n00b
[15:27] <MetroGnome> *ubuntu
[15:28] <daredevilthere> MetroGnome: install it
[15:28] <LukaszJ> erUSUL: Got it now, thank you.
[15:28] <Krissed> MetroGnome uhmm you could try wubi from ubuntu.org
[15:28] <anglxs> nroza: sry im newb, do u mean for the video?
[15:28] <Chousuke> avuton: it's going to be difficult to upgrade the driver if you can't find a hardy repo for it.
[15:28] <Krissed> it lets you install it from windows if thats what you like
[15:28] <erUSUL> LukaszJ: no problem
[15:28] <Manix> By the way for those who were trying to help me earlier, the reason it wasn't working was because what I thought was a Hardware RAID controller is actually not. The FakeRaidHowTo site helped me out and I think I can get it working now... just have a reinstall everything
[15:28] <nroza> anglxs: yeah
[15:28] <Yellow_dog> erUSUL: how? what is the linux-backports-modules-intrepid helps?
[15:28] <saurabh> can anyonre tell me where do we need to keep the file in windows xp for sending it to remote system using put command
[15:28] <erUSUL> Yellow_dog: more up to date drivers
[15:28] <mshkaji> hi there can someone help me with the command to formart flash disk in ubuntu?
[15:29] <erUSUL> mshkaji: why not just use gparted ?
[15:29] <simono_> mshkaji: sure, what's your question?
[15:29] <nightrid3r> saurabh: anywhere you like, just cd there before starting your ftp session
[15:29] <senux> huah
[15:30]  * ViperBorg is back.
[15:30] <Krissed> mshkaji have you tried googling format drive in linux ?
[15:30] <simono_> mshkaji: http://linuxwave.blogspot.com/2007/06/how-to-format-your-flash-drive.html
[15:30] <Chousuke> avuton: which version of the driver is it?
[15:30] <saurabh> i did but it says file not foundd
[15:31] <nightrid3r> saurabh: or use filezilla, its a gui ftp program, very easy to use
[15:31] <daredevilthere> !build-essential
[15:31] <daredevilthere> !builtbot
[15:31] <Yellow_dog> erUSUL: where can I find it? and how can I setup this patch on kernel?
[15:32] <saurabh> its ok but i want the command mode for my college lab
[15:32] <daredevilthere> !build-common
[15:32] <mshkaji> thanx simono am just checking it...
[15:32] <erUSUL> Yellow_dog: it is on synaptic is package not a patch and it is a package compatible with the ubuntu kernel ( it does not work for custom kernels)
[15:32] <Krissed> erUSUL uhmm do you know if the wifi drivers in ubuntu are apt packets ? so i could remove my wifi drivers and reinstall them ?
[15:33] <nightrid3r> saurabh: cd c:\location\of\file ; then ftp remote-site ; then put filename
[15:33] <Chousuke> avuton: hardy-updates repo apparently has a newer version. did you try that one?
[15:33] <luxus> Whenever i try to play a streaming video it doesnt play it just shows an image and it stays there
[15:33] <erUSUL> Krissed: most if not all of them come with the kernel package
[15:33] <avuton> Chousuke: Chousuke 2:2.4.1-1ubuntu10
[15:33] <luxus> Anyone know what to do?
[15:33] <saurabh> pls help
[15:33] <avuton> Chousuke: any way you could link me to how I can do that specific package?
[15:33] <Chousuke> avuton: hm, wait, that's even newer...
[15:33] <saurabh> ya i did but it says file not found
[15:33]  * Chousuke is confused.
[15:33] <Chousuke> oh right duh
[15:33] <Chousuke> it's intrepid nowadyas :(
[15:34] <Chousuke> well, intrepid-updates also has a newer driver
[15:34] <Krissed> erUSUL well i was trying to patch my drivers (for injection) and it got messed up.. so id rather not have to reinstall the entire thing but rather reinstall the drivers.. any idea how i should do that ?
[15:34] <saurabh> login was succesful and i could get a file from my remote system
[15:34] <saurabh> but put is not working
[15:34] <nightrid3r> saurabh: remeber what you see in explorer is probably only part of the file name as explorer doesn't show the extension
[15:34] <avuton> Chousuke: awesome. Is it possible to update just that driver or do I have to do the whole repository?
[15:35] <Chousuke> avuton: well, you can enable the repo, update the driver, and then disable the repo again
[15:35] <erUSUL> Krissed: well as i said reinstall the kernel package...
[15:35] <avuton> Chousuke: oh? I think I'll do that. Thanks for the help
[15:35] <Chousuke> avuton: just with apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intel
[15:35] <Krissed> erUSUL uhmm how do i do that ?
[15:35] <anglxs> I need help with firefox and streaming video. The problem is when i play a streaming video it just freezes right away. I downloaded gstream coders and stuff but they seem to collide with something else in my system. Any help?
[15:35] <Krissed> im not used to kernel stuff
[15:35] <MetroGnome> .
[15:35] <saurabh> i created a file s.txt and saw its name in properties
[15:35] <nightrid3r> saurabh: do you have write access to the ftp site
[15:35] <saurabh> its s.txt
[15:36] <Chousuke> avuton: if you want to be fancy about it, you can also give the -updates repo a lower priority than the standard repos, but that's pretty complicated :)
[15:36] <saurabh> the n i put it says file not found
[15:36] <erUSUL> Krissed: use synaptic or sudo apt-get install --reinstall [kernel-package]
[15:36] <Krissed> erUSUL oh and the kernel package would be the kernel version ?
[15:37] <erUSUL> Krissed: something like linux-image-kernelversion-generic or the like
[15:37] <Chousuke> avuton: just to make sure you don't make a mistake: the repo I mean is intrepid-updates, not hardy like I mistakenly said earlier :)
[15:37] <Krissed> oh thanks..
[15:37] <avuton> Chousuke: got it. Thanks alot :)
[15:38] <Chousuke> avuton: I think the rest of the packages in the -updates repo are recommended too, though, but you can of course choose not to install them

[15:38] <shally87> hi all..
[15:38] <shally87> does anyone got the original file for /etc/bind/named.conf
[15:38] <anglxs> I need help with streaming video :<
[15:39] <b^j> my gnome-panel appears to be hosed up, it is sitting their pegging my cpu and i can't click on any items in it.  I have tried killing it and it just comes back and does the same thing, i have tried a dpkg-reconfigure and an apt-get --reinstall install gnome-panel and these didn't fix the issue either. has anyone seen this or have any ideas?
[15:39] <shally87> does anyone got the original file for /etc/bind/named.conf .. could you copy and paste in the pastebin?
[15:40] <RPS> guys I keep losing my sound, I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 and I'm not having any other issues. I can do a simple reboot and everything will be fine. It might run 2 days or it might die after a couple of hours, but it always dies. If this is not the best channel could someone be kind enough to point me to a better choice?
[15:41] <Wolv3> guy when i move a file all go too slow
[15:41] <nickrud> b^j, you could do   gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel ; that will restore the config to default
[15:41] <oCean_> shally87: from fresh install: http://paste.ubuntu.com/112832/
[15:41] <bigbrova2> RPS: am sure its a pulse audio issue
[15:42] <shally87> thanks oCean_ .. I just overwrite the file and i need to take it back..
[15:42] <lushu> este cineva roman?
[15:42] <bigbrova2> RPS:there was i link i used that helped .. i have to digg for it
[15:42] <b^j> nickrud, thanks, that fixed it!
[15:42] <RPS> I looked for a channel dealing with Pulse, but brought nothing back

[15:43] <oCean_> shally87: no need to point out that a backup of any config file is a wise thing to do I guess ;-)
[15:43] <Finnish_> Whats the fast command to get back to home$ in console?
[15:43] <RPS> bigbrova2, I have time to wait if you don't mind

[15:45] <GaMbi_DK> Hi there.. I Installed a game half way (dvd1) and now wine asks for dvd2.. how do I eject? :) and if I do.. will the installer shutdown? :O
[15:45] <bigbrova2> RPS: you have got to take your time to read it through dont just jump to the solution .. no matter how hard it is to resist .. its better to have an understanding of the issue
[15:46] <bigbrova2> RPS: all the best
[15:46] <oCean_> shally87: np, glad to be of help
[15:46] <dr_Willis> GaMbi_DK,  i normally make a directrory, copy ALL the files from both disks to that directrory. then use wine to run the installer in that directory. - no disks needed then by wine. and it will intstall much faster
[15:47] <Talker> i need help with my internet connection on linux (ubuntu). I am connected to the wlan, but cannot ping any websites... what to do?
[15:47] <RPS> yes its all about the "learning"

[15:47] <kfyit> Talker-> do you have a route to get there?

[15:47] <oCean_> Talker: is there a proxy in the wlan?
[15:48] <Talker> hmm.. how do i know? i hav windows pc's connected to the wlan. Just typed in the password..
[15:48] <dr_Willis> GaMbi_DK,  the problem is that using  'wine /path/to/cd/whatever.exe'  locks the cd - in many cases  - I dont recall any good fix's - i think cedega some how worked around it.
[15:48] <mtoroyarzo> anglxs perhaps the solution would be you use a extension like mediaplayerconnectivity for firefox
[15:48] <kfyit> Talker -> try to get assistance for windows in #windows perhaps

[16:17] <bigbrova2> Talker> well i think its a bug .. lets hope its fixed soon .. mainwhile you just have to get used to running dhclient everytime you connect via wireless .. or install wicd
[16:17] <WyHiWyL> dropbear: thx
[16:17] <defenderz> jonaskoelker: no in xorg.conf it will say Configured Monitor, instead of something like Syncmaster 763MB
[16:18] <defenderz> on hardy
[16:18] <jonaskoelker> defenderz: I guess I don't understand your question then.  You want to know where the configuration of "Configured Monitor" is?
[16:18] <Talker> what is ibex, nm0.7 and wicd?
[16:18] <defenderz> yes
[16:19] <defenderz> its automatically generated
[16:19] <jonaskoelker> Talker: the latest Ubuntu release, the latest (I think) version of network manager, and an alternative to network manager

[16:19] <jonaskoelker> defenderz: could be, let's assume that...
[16:19] <GNUtoo> it's for testing purposes
[16:19] <dropbear> jonaskoelker: "Configured Montitor" is just an identifier you could put anything there as long as you use it consistently in your xorg.conf
[16:19] <Talker> jonaskoelker: thanks
[16:19] <jonaskoelker> Talker: yw :)
[16:20] <jonaskoelker> dropbear: that's correct
[16:20] <defenderz> dropbear: but when xorg uses that identifier what is fetched
[16:20] <Skeptiker> oCean_, must the number match "2.6.24-19-generic" exactly? Because a "2.6.24-17" is installed but not a "2.6.24-19-generic" (which doesn't seem to exist). And I can not find any mentioning of kernel-headers when running the command info build-essential
[16:20] <oCean_> Skeptiker: yes, headers should match the "uname -r" version
[16:20] <Talker> jonaskoelker and bigbrova2: what is best of nm, and wicd? maybe i should change?

[16:21] <oCean_> Skeptiker: "sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)" would install the matching headers

[16:21] <jonaskoelker> Talker: put in family-friendly language, NM has limitations; it doesn't do bonding, for one
[16:21] <oCean_> Skeptiker: "no" results?
[16:21] <Jack_Sparrow> jonaskoelker Please drop the colorful language.. thanks
[16:21] <dropbear> defenderz: xorg.conf contains the configuration itself, if not configured there devices are autodetected and defaults are used
[16:22] <bigbrova2> Talker: well it depends .. i wont advise you to .. but if network manager that you use really pisses you off then you can wicd a try .. but since you are new to ubuntu .. i would say still to running dhclient for now

[16:23] <oCean_> Skeptiker: I don't get it. There is no output *at all* ?
[16:23] <defenderz> maybe that old  screens config app
[16:23] <jonaskoelker> mrglinux1: or install a plugin for NM and set up a connection through it

[16:24] <bigbrova2> Talker:wich = wicd
[16:24] <oCean_> Skeptiker: the starting "$" isn't actually in the command is it? That is only part of your (shell) prompt
[16:24] <defenderz> dropbear: odd because im using the restricted drivers for my nvidia card
[16:25] <bigbrova2> KenSentMe:not dhclient3, dhlient

[16:25] <defenderz> i try and use the config to set res but changes are temporary
[16:25] <Talker> bigbrova2: i could run the dhclient command automatically on boot?
[16:25] <jonaskoelker> Talker: I think it's really only necessary to script stuff if your networking setup is complex or involves features that NM doesn't support
[16:25] <Skeptiker> oCean_, I just upgraded my computer and maybe it hasn't been added to my local database?  You must install before pptp-linux package

[16:26] <defenderz> dropbear:http://paste.ubuntu.com/112852/
[16:26] <Talker> jonaskoelker: and that fixes all?
[16:26] <jonaskoelker> how do I build ATI driver modules for my shiny new kernel?
[16:26] <jonaskoelker> Talker: for your wired interface, yeah
[16:26] <Jack_Sparrow> jonaskoelker Which kernel?
[16:26] <jonaskoelker> Jack_Sparrow: 2.6.28-6-generic
[16:27] <bigbrova2> Talker: you can but its a long process .. so just stick to running it everytime you want to connect .. try upgrading your system to the latest upgrade
[16:27] <miha> jonaskoelker: http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux/linux-radeon.html well get it here, it builds for you?
[16:27] <oCean_> Skeptiker: local database as in you are running a local repository mirror? Anyway, try searching (your) repos.. "sudo apt-get update" and "apt-cache search linux-headers"
[16:27] <dropbear> defenderz: did you try nvidia-settings to set your resolution?
[16:27] <Talker> jonaskoelker: have wlan
[16:27] <GNUtoo> anyone knows how to boot raid and or crypto drives on ubuntu?
[16:27] <Jack_Sparrow> jonaskoelker Perhaps ubuntu +1 since that isnt our kernel
[16:27] <jonaskoelker> miha: it seems like ubuntu is set up to build kernel modules for me.  I'd rather want that to work
[16:28] <miha> ok
[16:28] <defenderz> dropbear: i have exprimented with using nvidia config to completely rewrite xorg.conf and the changes stuck but then problems seemed to arise with compiz
[16:28] <miha> there's also some tool called 'envy' :) if ubuntu magic fails
[16:28] <jonaskoelker> Jack_Sparrow: uhh, jaunty is in my /etc/apt/sources.list, I think that might be it
[16:28] <silv3r_m001> hi there
[16:28] <Talker> bigbrova2: so there is no file to put a command in? *No easy way, like window's startup folder?
[16:28] <silv3r_m001> which package in synaptic contains the kernel source files or the source files of the distro
[16:28] <Jack_Sparrow> jonaskoelker Perhaps ubuntu +1 is a better choince for the help you need
[16:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !build-essentials
[16:29] <jonaskoelker> Jack_Sparrow: ah
[16:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !info build-essentials
[16:29] <dropbear> defenderz: nvidia-settings is the gui tool to set up your nvidia adapter. maybe you need to install it first: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[16:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !info build-essential
[16:29] <hatter243> Jack_Sparrow, build-essential
[16:29] <Jack_Sparrow> thanks hatter243
[16:29] <defenderz> dropbear: things like compiz being enable, saying effects could not be enable, but they were but were enable but without window title bars and from some reason the gnome-terminal just should up as white
[16:29] <adam__> telnet sdf.lonestar.org
[16:29] <adam__> mistell
[16:30] <Jack_Sparrow> hatter243 one factoid uses an s the other does not
[16:30] <jonaskoelker> Jack_Sparrow: so which kernel is supported for 8.10 and how do I get fglrx.ko for it?
[16:30] <Talker> bigbrova2: so there is no file to put a command in? *No easy way, like window's startup folder?
[16:30] <miha> jonaskoelker: i got .27 and ati fglrx works, both ubuntu
[16:30] <bigbrova2> Talker: there is a start up folder .. .. but remember you need to run it with admin privilage which means that it needs to be part of ur init startup scripts
[16:30] <Jack_Sparrow> 27.9 at least
[16:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !startup
[16:31] <unanxbt> which is the most famous video editor software?
[16:31] <Jack_Sparrow> !polls
[16:31] <genii> siliconmeadow: kernel header sources are named like: linux-headers-(specific kernel version here)              entire kernel source is named like: linux-source-(specific kernel version here)
[16:31] <jonaskoelker> :( "envyng -g": make sure envyng-qt is installed
[16:31] <jonaskoelker> wtf?  I want to run the gtk version of envyng and it tells me to install the kde (well, qt) version?
[16:31] <defenderz> dropbear: thats what is used to apply the changes to xorg before, but its odd, in the system admin menu if you run nvidia-settings it runs as the local user and can't write to xorg but if you run gksu nvidia-settings and try to write it works.
[16:32] <Jack_Sparrow> genii sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`
[16:32] <sidewalk> how do i configure my hotkeys in Ubuntu 8.10 ?
[16:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !keys
[16:32] <bigbrova2> Talker the gnome/kde startup manager are for applications that are loaded once the system is setup .. esp apps normal applications ... ubuntu and windows have diff approaches to startup in the case
[16:32] <jonaskoelker> sidewalk: xbindkeys and xmodmap for the win ;)
[16:32] <genii> Jack_Sparrow: They are also deprecating this. So the meta will just be -i386 or -generic   or so and not specific rev
[16:33] <Jack_Sparrow> sidewalk be aware there are several predefined in compiz that may cause you some issues..  /join #compiz for more info
[16:33] <jonaskoelker> sidewalk: if you don't mind editing config files... xev is helpful for xmodmap, xbindkeys is fairly straightforward
[16:33] <dropbear> defenderz: ..so if you use gksu nvidia-settings you can't select your desired resolution?
[16:33] <sidewalk> Jack_Sparrow: i have buttons assigned to for example "XF86AudioMedia", how do i change what that button does?
[16:33] <Besogon> jonaskoelker: you can run envy in terminal
[16:33] <Jack_Sparrow> sidewalk Read the tutorial.. I dont have extra buttons
[16:33] <mrglinux1> jonaskoelker i installed it has getway and ... but i set it doesn't work .. my friend on winxp said me worked and connected .. do you and how to suggest
[16:34] <sidewalk> Jack_Sparrow: what tutorial? :D
[16:34] <ludri> How can I add a program without installer to Wine Programs menu, I copied the program folder into "program files". But I cant see it form the applications menu under Wine -> programs
[16:34] <hospodg> is there a file i can execute that will boot ubuntu? I would like to boot ubuntu from another OS
[16:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !keys
[16:34] <jonaskoelker> mrglinux1: I don't understand...
[16:34] <jonaskoelker> mrglinux1: what did you itstall; do you mean getway = gateway?
[16:34] <nickrud> hospodg, and have the original os still running? look into virtualbox, vmware or wubi
[16:35] <sipior> hospodg: you'll want to look into virtualisation: virtualbox will do what you need, as will vmware.
[16:35] <Jack_Sparrow> hospodg May I have a word with you please
[16:35] <bigbrova2> Talker: for dhclient to work .. u need to be connected to a network .. what dhclient does is ask your dhcp server for an ip ..  its would be hard adding it to your startup script  because it would require your passwd and stuff and adding it to your init bootup scripts would be unless since the system only connect to wirless once you are booted up
[16:35] <jonaskoelker> hospodg: you may also want to look into colinux
[16:35] <hospodg> no i want the original OS to shut down
[16:35] <mrglinux1> jonaskoelker sorry yes .. in ubuntu 8.10 network manager vpn connection and i added
[16:35] <hospodg> Jack_Sparrow, is there a problem
[16:36] <Jack_Sparrow> hospodg If you are still trying to boot live and jump ship to the other OS  the answer is still NO
[16:36] <jonaskoelker> Jack_Sparrow: I installed linux-image-2.6.27-11-generic and get "Kernel source for 2.6.27-11-generic not installed.  Cannot install this module" for both fglrx and vboxdrv
[16:36] <Krstnsn> can anyone name a good reason/fix that mount.ntfs runs my cpu up to 90% when im not reading or writing to a ntfs partition.
[16:36] <bigbrova2> Talker: am still a noob at this thing so dont take my words as gospel .. google it ..
[16:36] <Besogon> mrglinux1: gateway for vpn through Ethernet YOU must have written in eth0 routing
[16:36] <jonaskoelker> Krstnsn: the code is crap? :P
[16:37] <Slart_> Krstnsn: some background thing? updatedb? some media player searching for music?
[16:37] <Skeptiker> oCean_, I've run your commands and still no "linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic"
[16:37] <dayo_> bigbrova2: sign on to yahoo
[16:37] <jonaskoelker> listen to Slart_, he's actually thinking about it :D
[16:37] <Krstnsn> nothing is running but xchat. wine, and utorrent.
[16:37] <Krstnsn> well and x
[16:37] <Krstnsn> it does it fro bootup...
[16:38] <mrglinux1> Besogon ip from my vpn server ?
[16:38] <Jack_Sparrow> tracker - Krstnsn
[16:38] <dropbear> Krstnsn: indexing service like tracker or googledesktop is indexing your ntfs mounts, still not a good reason to hog your cpu though...
[16:38] <bigbrova2> dayo_: sad even on irc .. when would this madness end ?
[16:38] <Chiliblack> does anyone use mediatomb UPnP server here
[16:38] <jonaskoelker> Slart: <--- ...ibartfast? ;)
[16:38] <oCean_> Skeptiker: is your sources.list in order? Searching for other packages in the repos works?
[16:38] <Krstnsn> ya i use google desktop forgot about that.. what if the googledesktop app isnt using any resources at all?
[16:38] <dayo_> bigbrova2: sign on, u work-ditcher!
[16:38] <Slart> jonaskoelker: yes.. the very same.. coming up with original nicks for irc is hard..
[16:39] <Kakinho_> .
[16:39] <bigbrova2> dayo_: am on the acrh box and havent found the time to install pidgin .. my laptop is off for the day
[16:39] <Besogon> mrglinux1: sorry I must go
[16:39] <mrglinux1> what is NT domain ?
[16:39] <Slart> Krstnsn: it's waiting for the ntfs-driver to give it data? =)
[16:39] <Rhorse> OT: Does anyone know why the Octanews web server is down and the web site expired? Please pm me.
[16:39] <Skeptiker> oCean_, yes. The command "apt-cache search linux-headers" gave me a list but not including the one I need
[16:39] <Slart> mrglinux1: a way to centralize authentication and stuff in windows land
[16:40] <Krstnsn> guess imna have to try running with out googdesktop
[16:40] <Slart> Krstnsn: can't you just tell it to stay away from your ntfs-drives?
[16:40] <oCean_> Skeptiker: what kernel are you actually running?
[16:40] <NET||abuse> ooh,, anyone looked at or used eBox, ebox-platform.com  seems to be free and open.
[16:40] <mrglinux1> Slart i installed pptpd on my debian server and config it but i don't know how to config my client here in ubuntu 8.10
[16:41] <Krstnsn> maybe.. im running nothing but xchat and its still going 86%, 80%, 90%, etc.
[16:41] <Krstnsn> sucks
[16:41] <Skeptiker> oCean_, "Linux ubuntu 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Aug 20 22:56:21 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux"
[16:41] <Rhorse> !off topic
[16:41] <Rhorse> !ot
[16:41] <Slart> mrglinux1: pptpd?
[16:41] <mrglinux1> Slart yes i installed it
[16:41] <genii> mrglinux1: network-manager-pptp or pptp-linux might be useful
[16:41] <Slart> Krstnsn: does it go down if you unmount the ntfs drive?
[16:42] <Slart> mrglinux1: what is it? I'm not familiar with it
[16:42] <joshjtl> anyone know if I can remove text from icons in nautilus, and if I can make the icons smaller?
[16:42] <Krstnsn> ive never tried unmounting. i didnt know how safe it was to unmount it.
[16:42] <Krstnsn> im assuming its my windows side partition
[16:42] <oCean_> Skeptiker: that being hardy?
[16:42] <Slart> Krstnsn: it probably won't let you unmount it if it's being accessed
[16:42] <Krstnsn> cause i dont have any externals or anything
[16:42] <saurabh> when i send an mp4 or dat file through ftp then it says invalid argument
[16:43] <Slart> saurabh: you're probably not doing it right then
[16:43] <saurabh> can anyone help
[16:43] <Skeptiker> oCean_, oh sorry. I am running 8.10 "Intrepid Ibex"
[16:43] <mrglinux1> Slart something like openvpn
[16:43] <shingalated> saurabh, how are you sending the file?
[16:43] <oCean_> Skeptiker: but old kernel? I'm on intrepid and running 2.6.27-11
[16:43] <saurabh> by using put command
[16:44] <Slart> mrglinux1: oh.. I'm useless then.. never done that and I hope I never have to.. it seems to be more trouble than it's worth
[16:44] <saurabh> i have done ftp from windows xp to ubuntu 8.10
[16:44] <Skeptiker> oCean_, maybe I need to upgrade the kernel? I'll see if I find a tutorial
[16:44] <saurabh> now get or put is not working
[16:44] <shingalated> saurabh, Hmm..that should work have you tried it through the GUI "Connect to server" in the Places menu?
[16:45] <joshjtl> anyone know if I can remove text from icons in nautilus, and if I can make the icons smaller?
[16:45] <Slart> saurabh: is this isolated to only mp4 or dat files? do any files work?
[16:46] <shingalated> joshjtl, which icons?  The toolbar icons of the file/folders?
[16:46] <joshjtl> shingalated: toolbar sorry
[16:46] <oCean_> Skeptiker: you upgraded ubuntu, but not the kernel? Upgrading might be a good idea, but not if you had a really good reason not to do so before ...
[16:47] <shingalated> joshjtl, go to system>preferences>appearence and then choose the Interface tab and set toolbar icon labels to "Icons only"
[16:47] <Skeptiker> oCean_, the update manager told me that there is a new ubuntu version and I just followed along. I did not know how to upgrade the kernel at the same time :)
[16:47] <durix> nabend
[16:49] <oCean_> Skeptiker: hm.. for some reason the update mgr skipped the kernel upgrade. I'm not sure why, and there might be a good reason for it.
[16:49] <Chocotoff> Hello... How does one completely remove a package, not leaving behind any configs. Let´s say of samba
[16:49] <Slart> Chocotoff: apt-get purge
[16:50] <sidewalk> anyone know how i get hotkeys working in VLC?
[16:50] <Chocotoff> and when i reinstall it has the default configs again?
[16:50] <Slart> Chocotoff: or apt-get remove --purge.. it does the same thing in ubuntu
[16:50] <Slart> Chocotoff: it should, yes
[16:50] <durix> apt-get --purge   samba
[16:50] <Chocotoff> alright ill try
[16:50] <Skeptiker> oCean_, would you recommend me to upgrade the kernel? I am using a laptop and an Intel core 2 Duo (for what it's worth)
[16:50] <Slart> Chocotoff: of course you need to sudo that..
[16:50] <Mega_65994> hello
[16:50] <durix> hello mega
[16:50] <Slart> hello Mega_65994
[16:51] <joshjtl> does anyone use an alternative to the regular gnome menu?
[16:51] <Chocotoff> Thanks, it worked...
[16:52] <Slart> !anyone | joshjtl
[16:52] <Slart> Chocotoff: you're welcome
[16:52] <oCean_> oCean_: since I have no clue as to why during upgrade your kernel was left at old level, I would not recommend it. However, maybe someone else here knows a a safe way to do so.
[16:52] <jackmayol> hi
[16:52] <jackmayol> anyone in here?
[16:52] <oCean_> !hi | jackmayol
[16:53] <Slart> jackmayol: yes.. 1417 of us here.. not including you..
[16:53] <jackmayol> lol
[16:53] <saurabh> can i login through root user from ftp
[16:53] <saurabh> hello
[16:53] <jackmayol> I just bought new PC components (mobo, gpu, cpu and ram). Now I gonna switch from 8.10-32 to 8.10-64, what do I have to backup to keep my settings after a reinstall ? I dont wanna lose my eye candy stuff, took me ages to configure. Sorry I'm quite new to linux
[16:53] <oCean_> Skeptiker: arg, I wrote your line to myself. Did you get that?
[16:53] <Slart> saurabh: since the root user doesn't have a password in ubuntu I doubt it
[16:54] <Slart> jackmayol: your home folder has a lot of configs.. also /etc
[16:54] <Skeptiker> oCean_, okay. Thanks! I'll look further into it. THanks for your help anyways
[16:55] <pregier> Is there any particular way/place to find out how broken firefox/flash/pulse is in 8.XX on any given day?  I'm using http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 to configure both 8.04 and 8.10 and want to know if my random firefox crashes are (a) pulse/flash-related and (b) typical
[16:55] <oCean_> Skeptiker: ok!
[16:55] <jackmayol> Slart ok
[16:55] <joshjtl> Slart: just because I used the word "anyone" doesn't mean I didn't ask my question... I did.
[16:56] <Slart> joshjtl: ok, the answer is "yes", you're welcome =)
[16:56] <jackmayol> and can I reinstall 8.10/64 "over" 8.10/32 ? or does things get messed up?
[16:56] <joshjtl> Slart: what do you use?
[16:56] <Slart> joshjtl: oh no you don't.. no follow up questions..
[16:56] <joshjtl> hehe why not?
[16:57] <Slart> joshjtl: that's what the !anyone factoid is about.. why not ask for suggestions for gnome menu alternatives instead if that's what you wanted?
[16:57] <joshjtl> Slart: ok
[16:57] <Slart> joshjtl: but I won't be nasty.. I use the AWN menu thingy
[16:57] <Slart> joshjtl: I'm not terribly happy with it though..
[16:58] <joshjtl> does anyone use an alternative to the gnome menu, if so what?
[16:58] <joshjtl> Slart: thats part of AWN right? can't be used separately ?
[16:58] <usr13> Trying to install kubuntu-desktop on Ubuntu 8.04 I think I have it installed, but do not know how to cofigure X to load KDE instead of Gnome.
[16:59] <Slart> joshjtl: I don't think it can used separately... it's an AWN applet
[16:59] <joshjtl> ok thanks Slart
[16:59] <Raphi974>  joshjtl did you try USP ?
[16:59] <Photoguy> Ubuntu is stopping at the login screen, it show's the background, and the "wait" cursor, but it just sits there doing nothing, I need help!
[17:00] <usr13> Can anyone tell me how to configure the Xserver to use KDE instead on Gnome?  Or how to make it so I have a choice at the login manager?
[17:00] <joshjtl> Raphi974: I haven't tried it for awhile... is it any good now? I remember it being slow and resource heavy
[17:00] <saurabh_>  can i login through root user from ftp
[17:00] <Raphi974> usr13, do you have GDM or KDM installed ?
[17:00] <sipior> saurabh_: why would you want to do such a thing?
[17:00] <Raphi974> joshjtl, I didn't try it for a while...
[17:00] <Jack_Sparrow> usr13 Once you have installed the other wm it should be under options where you login
[17:00] <usr13> Raphi974: I have KDM installed and KDE4-KDM too
[17:01] <Jack_Sparrow> usr13 You can also set the default wm in there
[17:01] <Raphi974> usr13, When you type your username, then click on Session, and change for KDE, then type your password
[17:01] <saurabh_> actually i want to share things in between two computers so permissions creating problem
[17:01] <Raphi974> usr13, it will ask you if you want to make it default or not
[17:01] <dr_Willis> Hit  'F10' if you cant find the seession menu :)
[17:02] <sipior> saurabh_: easier ways to do that, i think. are both machines running linux?
[17:02] <saurabh_> no one has windows xp
[17:02] <saurabh_> and mine ubuntu 8.10
[17:03] <Photoguy> Ubuntu is stopping at the login screen, it show's the background, and the "wait" cursor, but it just sits there doing nothing, I need help!
[17:03] <s0ullight> !fingerprint
[17:03] <sipior> saurabh_: okay. and you want to create a permanent solution? or just move a few files on occasion?
[17:03] <Slart> Photoguy: has it ever worked? can you press ctrl+alt+f1 to get a terminal?
[17:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Photoguy Is this a regular install or wubi or vm such  thing...
[17:03] <Photoguy> wubiu
[17:03] <Photoguy> *wubi
[17:04] <saurabh_> permanent solution
[17:04] <Photoguy> It's been working fine
[17:04] <usr13> Raphi974: Yes, and I told it to use KDM
[17:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Photoguy Sorry, cant help you
[17:04] <saurabh_> !
[17:04] <usr13> Raphi974: BUt it didn't work
[17:04] <Slart> Photoguy: oh.. wubi.. I have no idea then
[17:04] <Raphi974> usr13, to use KDE Session
[17:04] <usr13> Raphi974: so....???
[17:04] <Raphi974> usr13, not KDM
[17:04] <Photoguy> Slart: what should I type into the terminal?
[17:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !wuubi > Photoguy
[17:04] <sipior> saurabh_: in that case, you'll want to set up samba on your linux box. have a look here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba
[17:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !wubi > Photoguy
[17:04] <adam__> note to self: using ls -R from / is a bad idea
[17:05] <Photoguy> I know ubottu :P
[17:05] <hospodg> Jack_Sparrow, what are you accusing me of
[17:05] <Raphi974> usr13, Type your username, then Enter, then click on Sessions and choose KDE4 (or KDE) then click OK, then type your password and Enter
[17:05] <adam__> actually, it's still going, is there a kill command for the shell?
[17:05] <Slart> Photoguy: tail /var/log/syslog will give you the last 10 lines of the system log.. tail /var/log/kern.log will do the same for the kernel log
[17:05] <Jack_Sparrow> !ot > hospodg
[17:05] <saurabh_> \it will kind of u if u tell me how to configure ftp to login through root user
[17:05] <usr13> Raphi974: It just comes up gnome
[17:05] <sipior> adam__: ctrl-c
[17:05] <Photoguy> Ok
[17:05] <Raphi974> usr13, It will ask you if you want to make this change permanently
[17:05] <shawnmstout> ok im kinda stuck here i got some spyware on my ubuntu box and i know how to remove with windows but i have no clue on how to remove for ubuntu, is there a hijackthis or malwarebytes anti-malware similiar program for ubuntu?
[17:05] <adam__> gracias sip
[17:05] <Raphi974> usr13, choose : Make default session
[17:05] <Slart> shawnmstout: you've got spyware on your ubuntu box? interesting.. what kind of spyware?
[17:06] <usr13> Raphi974: KDM does not seem to come up, just GDM
[17:06] <Raphi974> usr13, it have to work too
[17:06] <Jack_Sparrow> shawnmstout What makes you  think yyou have spyware on your ubu box
[17:06] <Slart> shawnmstout: there's always rkhunter
[17:06] <usr13> Or at lest, it looks like GDM
[17:06] <shawnmstout> it is a internet hijacker every morning it goes to fling.com
[17:06] <pregier> Anybody know whether there are any known stability problems with firefox/flash/pulse common to both 8.04 and 8.10?
[17:06] <Raphi974> usr13, no real difference between these 2. It work the same way
[17:06] <Slart> shawnmstout: sounds like a firefox plugin or something
[17:06] <shawnmstout> i know right , shocked me
[17:06] <Jack_Sparrow> shawnmstout so something got into firefox right
[17:07] <shawnmstout> i agree first place i checked was addons and plugins for firefox
[17:07] <bhuvi> while installing ubuntu i gave /dev/media6 instead of /media/sda6 and after installing all the drives content except system volume information is gone y does this happan??can anyone help
[17:07] <Slart> shawnmstout: I doubt you've found some linux spyware
[17:07] <Jack_Sparrow> shawnmstout save a copy of your bookmarks and we can purge ff and get you back up
[17:07] <ph8> hi all - i've got a remote video stream from a linksys wireless webcam - accessible at: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/img/mjpeg.cgi (from my pc obviously) - is there any program anyone knows of that could take regular snapshots from this stream?
[17:07] <Raphi974> bhuvi, check fstab and change the device
[17:07] <Slart> bhuvi: I think you'll have to reinstall
[17:07] <shawnmstout> ok sounds good
[17:08] <shawnmstout> never thought about reinstalling firefox
[17:08] <Slart> bhuvi: I have no idea what happens if you try to install /dev/media6.. I'm suprised it even continued
[17:08] <Jack_Sparrow> shawnmstout reinstall wont fix it
[17:08] <shawnmstout> will do that now
[17:08] <swtaarrs> can anyone recommend an mpeg2 editor that works well with very large ( > 30gb) files?
[17:08] <shawnmstout> oh ok
[17:08] <usr13> Raphi974: Raphi974 My question is, where / how to edit the configuration file that tells xorg to load KDE instead of Gnome. Because I get no option for KDE at this point.  SO something has gone wrong.  If there is a GUI way to solve this, I'll be glad to try it. But...
[17:08] <shawnmstout> jack can u explain what i need to do?
[17:09] <Slart> shawnmstout: check the plugins list in firefox.. see if there is anything suspicious there
[17:09] <Jack_Sparrow> YOu need to manually remove it.. and Iam looking for my notes on what all had to be removed
[17:09] <Raphi974> usr13, You want your session to be KDE by default ?
[17:09] <jackmayol> how can I know which is the case? "Is /home a seperate filesystem (mount point) or a part of the root filesystem (/)?"
[17:09] <saurabh_> can anyone tell me how to login through root user in ftp
[17:09] <jackmayol> I didnt do the install myself so I dont know
[17:09] <usr13> Raphi974: Yes
[17:09] <Raphi974> usr13, Do you use KDM or GDM ?
[17:10] <shawnmstout> backed up
[17:10] <usr13> Raphi974: Well, up to this point, I've used GDM, but have installe KDM
[17:10] <shawnmstout> slart i did
[17:10] <Slart> saurabh_: ftp server on ubuntu?
[17:10] <sipior> jackmayol: "df" will show them as separate filesystems if that is indeed the case.
[17:10] <Krstnsn> theres something seriously wrong with my install of ubuntu or something... firefox is running my cpu big time... and its idle. with one tab open onto a page with only words.
[17:10] <saurabh_> ya
[17:10] <saurabh_> on ubuntu
[17:10] <shawnmstout> wierd thing is its like on a cron job or something
[17:10] <shawnmstout> only 1 time a day and its before we wake up
[17:10] <saurabh_> ubuntu 8.10
[17:11] <Skeptiker> If update-grub says "Found kernel: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-11-generic" does it mean that the kernel 2.6.27-11-generic is installed on my computer?
[17:11] <Slart> saurabh_: I wouldn't do that.. set it up properly instead
[17:11] <shawnmstout> so every morning its tits and ass staring at my fience
[17:11] <ajhdajdh> heh
[17:11] <Raphi974> usr13, Well, you can use one or the other... it's basically the same. Except if you want to remove EVERYTHING about Gnome
[17:11] <saurabh_> please be more clear
[17:11] <saurabh_> i didnt get u
[17:11] <Slart> shawnmstout: hmm.. fling.com you said.. interesting.. ;)
[17:11] <shawnmstout> yes
[17:11] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker YEs, what are you trying to fix?
[17:11] <Slart> shawnmstout: I would just save the bookmarks and reinstall firefox completely
[17:12] <Slart> shawnmstout: "sudo apt-get purge firefox" will clear everything out.. save the stuff you want before you run that
[17:12] <Raphi974> usr13, When you log-in, before pressing Enter after your password, you will have to press F10, the Session menu will appear
[17:12] <shawnmstout> 1 sec guys, phone
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart I had one where that would not work, but it is the first thing to try anyhow
[17:12] <Raphi974> usr13, You choose KDE, then click OK, then press Enter
[17:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart I had to go in and kill .mozilla if I remember correctly
[17:12] <Raphi974> usr13, GDM or KDM will ask you if you want to make that change permanent, click : Make default session
[17:13] <Raphi974> usr13, or something like that
[17:13] <Slart> Jack_Sparrow: I wonder if it some kind of scripted/java/flash thing.. never seen anything target linux before so I'm guessing it's using something portable
[17:13] <jackmayol> sipior /dev/sda5              9614116   3133748   5991996  35% /home
[17:13] <jackmayol> ?
[17:13] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart YEs, it is a problem within FF
[17:13] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, I have just upgraded my system to Ubuntu 8.10. However, every time I boot my computer I end up with ubuntu 8.10 but with the kernel "2.6.24-19-generic". When booting the computer, Grub never allows me to boot into the new kernel which is what I would like to do. How do I fix this?
[17:13] <Raphi974> usr13, then you will be logged in... in a KDE Session
[17:13] <sipior> jackmayol: right, so that line shows a separate /home partition.
[17:13] <jackmayol> oki
[17:13] <jackmayol> thx :)
[17:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker LEts look at  your grub menu.lst one sec
[17:14] <ndf> hey
[17:14] <bhuvi> i reinstalled ubuntu with correct mount point but is there any way i could get my contents in the partition back??
[17:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && pastebinit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[17:14] <usr13> Raphi974: I followed instructions at: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-KDE-4-1-On-Ubuntu-8-04-91034.shtmlhttp://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-KDE-4-1-On-Ubuntu-8-04-91034.shtml
[17:14] <usr13> But I only get gnome sessions, no KDE.
[17:15] <sipior> bhuvi: if it's been overwritten by the installer, i doubt it.
[17:15] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, http://pastebin.com/f16cb1cc2
[17:15] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker you can shift ctrl-v to paste that command into a term
[17:15] <shawnmstout> ok sorry guys im back
[17:16] <Raphi974> usr13, so you're under Ubuntu 8.04 ?
[17:16] <Azazel-AZ> I have installed KDE in ubuntu.  it was like apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[17:16] <bhuvi> but the file system seems to be intact
[17:16] <shawnmstout> let me scroll up and read what u wrote
[17:16] <sipior> bhuvi: what did you do to it, exactly?
[17:16] <ndf> anyone know of any dvd ripping software?
[17:16] <sipior> bhuvi: you may just try mounting it normally. perhaps all is well.
[17:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-19-generic            is the newest kernel in that list
[17:17] <shawnmstout> ok hey thanks alot guys ill run the purge now
[17:17] <miha> ndf http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/
[17:17] <Raphi974> ndf, http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=281232
[17:17] <shawnmstout> i was definitely suprised though getting spyware and cant find the plugin either
[17:17] <shawnmstout> what if its some type of cron job running?
[17:17] <shawnmstout> cause it only happens at a certain time?
[17:17] <shawnmstout> is there a way to check this?
[17:17] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, yes. But shouldn't it have upgraded it to the newer "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-11-generic" kernel automatically?
[17:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker Ubuntu lsb_release -a next
[17:18] <steven_> 233
[17:18] <Wolv3> how can i install amarok codecs?
[17:18] <Azazel-AZ> Skeptiker:  Got a question, I need to pin my kernel so update manager and apt-get/aptitude both see the pin
[17:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker that menu list shows you still on the earlier version.  How did you upgrade
[17:19] <bhuvi> now i reinstalled ubuntu with correct mount point but how the contents can be brought back
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> bhuvi They can not if you fromatted the partition and wrote over them
[17:19] <Azazel-AZ> Skeptiker: 1) Did he reboot?  2) did grub get updated?
[17:19] <bhuvi> i didnt format it
[17:19] <Slart> sorry.. had a short network outage...
[17:20] <nkei0> Anyone here want to help me get my display to work again?  I upgraded to the new ati radeon driver and accidentally restarted without configuring the device.  I can't X to start due to no screens detected.  I can however boot the livecd and that's how I'm on here.
[17:20] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, http://pastebin.com/m7e12a7ed I upgraded it via Synaptics
[17:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker Ubuntu lsb_release -a next           jst to verify what release you are currently on and tell us how you  tried to upgrade your release
[17:20] <sipior> bhuvi: what was the filesystem on the other partition? you can just try mounting it with "mount -t ntfs /dev/sdb1 /mnt/disk", with the appropriate substitutions for your system.
[17:20] <bhuvi> it was ntfs
[17:20] <sipior> bhuvi: for example, "ext3 instead of ntfs", change the mount point and device, etc...
[17:21] <Azazel-AZ> nkeiO:  you can boot live CD, and mount HD on mnt and copy /etc/x11/xorg.conf to hard disk, reboot then configure your driver
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker so lsb  shows it right
[17:21] <Skeptiker> Azazel-AZ, yes, my computer did reboot correctly. I do not know if grup got updated (however, I've tried running update-grup a few times)
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker uname -r
[17:21] <Azazel-AZ> did you check menu.lst?
[17:21] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: OKay, how do I mount HD on mnt?
[17:21] <SxNDave> Does anyone know of a package that I could use to create dynamically linked help files. like .chm's or .hlp'?. The save format is not a concern since its for personal use, saving study notes etc..
[17:21] <tyler_d> trying to find package msgmerge binary -- not finding it anywhere?
[17:21] <Azazel-AZ> ok, try this
[17:22] <Azazel-AZ> mkdir /mnt/harddisk
[17:22] <Holmen> How do I start svnserve ...as user "svn"?
[17:22] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, uname -r: 2.6.24-19-generic
[17:22] <sipior> bhuvi: do you know the disk and partition number?
[17:22] <bhuvi> sda6
[17:22] <tyler_d> Holmen: su - svn && ./svnserve
[17:22] <tyler_d> Holmen: assuming your in the correct dir
[17:22] <Skeptiker> Azazel-AZ, the new kernel is not in menu.lst: http://pastebin.com/f16cb1cc2
[17:22] <Azazel-AZ> mount -t auto /dev/sdX /mnt/harddisk where x is your linux partition
[17:22] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker HAve you done all of your updates since the iniitial upgrade
[17:22] <sipior> bhuvi: so it will be something like "sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/sda6 /mnt/"
[17:22] <Photoguy> slart, there didn't seem to be any errors after running the tail  /log and kernel/log , what should I do now, I really need to log in :P
[17:23] <Azazel-AZ> ok, add it, run grub, reboot.  make sure you also change the default boot # to the new kernel
[17:23] <woernsn> hey there
[17:23] <Slart> Photoguy: I have no idea.. wubi isn't my thing.. sorry
[17:23] <sipior> bhuvi: if all is well, your files should be in /mnt
[17:23] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: How do I tell which partition is my linux one?
[17:23] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, I have no upgrades to do (according to the upgrade manager)
[17:23] <Jack_Sparrow> Azazel-AZ that assumes the kernel is actually in his system
[17:24] <Photoguy> Slart  Well, it's just the same as any other installation, just doesn't have it's own partition.
[17:24] <Azazel-AZ> sudo fdisk /dev/sda then type p to print partitions
[17:24] <dogmeat> if you Ctrl-Backspace, does every windowed pid get killed?
[17:24] <Jack_Sparrow> Photoguy and that is precisely why I wont use trust nor recommend using it
[17:24] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, well, what I said is not completely true. If I allow intrepid-proposed I suddenly get a lot of updates available. Should I do that?
[17:24] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: It's showing that I have two, how can I tell which one is the correct one?
[17:25] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker not proposed
[17:25] <Slart> Photoguy: sorry.. I wouldn't know what to do if a full install did that either
[17:25] <Azazel-AZ> is one a swap?
[17:25] <n0greenfx> hi i need some help with my smb shares..i have a external hhd hooked to my laptop and i went to sharing options and checked each check box..when im on my ps3 via ubuntu it tells me i am unable to mount the shared drive????
[17:25] <Photoguy> Slart, ok, I see.
[17:25] <bhuvi> i was able to mount it but the problem is i lost my important files in the partition and i want it back
[17:25] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: Well I have two linux, two linux/swap, and one extended
[17:25] <Azazel-AZ> ok, try this instead.  got a usb stick drive?
[17:25] <Photoguy> Does anybody else have any idea what to do when it hangs up on the login screen?
[17:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker We can try to add it manually to your menu.lst
[17:26] <Azazel-AZ> Photoguy:  Reboot, Intrepid is annoying the hell out of me with that
[17:26] <nkei0> Photoguy: You should try booting with acpi=off
[17:26] <vtec> anyone from brazil?
[17:26] <Photoguy> nkei0:  how?
[17:26] <Azazel-AZ> hold pwr button for 10 seconds
[17:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker which kernel ? 7 and 9 ?  generic
[17:27] <Photoguy> Azazel-AZ: I did, several times.
[17:27] <bastones> Hi. I wanted to change screen resolution in Ubuntu and I mistakenly pressed 'Off' and after I clicked Apply the screen went blank ... so I tried rebooting computer and after I login it goes black again...is there any solution to this please
[17:27] <Azazel-AZ> unplug and remove battery if applicable
[17:27] <nkei0> Photoguy: When the boot menu comes up press "e" then go down to the kernel and press "e", then add "acpi=off" at the end of the long line where it has quiet and splash at
[17:27] <Photoguy> bastones, try booting in recovery mode.
[17:27] <ociosoFedorro> que onda lokos
[17:27] <Photoguy> nkei0: i'll try that
[17:27] <ociosoFedorro> wat's up locos
[17:28] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, "/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-11-generic" Is the one I want.
[17:29] <woody86> Can anyone help me out, I get this error when I try to run Update Manager: W: GPG error: http://ppa.launchpad.net intrepid Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 60D11217247D1CFF
[17:29] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: Okay, I've just tried that mount -t auto /dev/sdX /mnt/harddisk to the first linux partition (plus it had a * next to it)  Anyways, what was I supposed to do from there?
[17:29] <Al1_> Hi, I have a wine related issue, and i understand this is Ubuntu but i tried the #winehq server and they were unable to help me. Im using Ubuntu Hardy and i am having an issue with ALSA when i open up winecfg their is only the OSS driver listed under list of audio drivers whereas normally there should be an ALSA driver, im using pulseaudio and an intel HDA card
[17:30] <Azazel-AZ> type ls /mnt/harddisk and see if you /etc?
[17:30] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, Will this work: http://pastebin.com/m686ff18 ?I am not sure about the arguments after "root="
[17:31] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: lost+found came up
[17:31] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker http://pastebin.com/d7c58d8d2
[17:31] <Azazel-AZ> ok, try the other linxu one. first umount /mnt/harddisk and mount the other and try that onme
[17:31] <Azazel-AZ> one
[17:31] <bastones> Photoguy I tried booting into safe mode but still went black
[17:32] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, Might I ask why you entered .27-7 and not .27-11?
[17:32] <Photoguy> bastones, try asking someone how to reset or something maybe.
[17:32] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: I tried unmount /mnt/harddisk and it said command not found
[17:32] <Azazel-AZ> umount sorry
[17:33] <Azazel-AZ> its short for umount lmao
[17:33] <troythetechguy> I want to set up a mail server.  I remember hearing about different types: like postfix, sendmail.  What should I use?
[17:33] <Photoguy> bastones, sorry, I'm kind of new also :)
[17:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker -7 is the original   that came on ibex.. I added -9 to this one..  http://pastebin.com/d1d2d02ae
[17:34] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: Okay, I unmounted, and mounted to the other sda.  I then did the ls thingie and the home directory came up with /usr, /etc, /boot and all that
[17:35] <Charles> Does anyone know of a good gdm editor
[17:35] <Azazel-AZ> kewl.  sudo cp /mnt/harddisk/etc/x11/xorg.conf /mnt/harddisk/etc/x11/xorg.backup
[17:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker -11 http://pastebin.com/d633c77af
[17:35] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, thank you. I'll try them and see if any of them works
[17:35] <ghostlines> does anyone else's evolution suddenly start after suspend?
[17:36] <Fantec> hello
[17:36] <Azazel-AZ> then. sudo cp /etc/x11/xorg.conf /mnt/harddisk/mnt/x11/xorg.conf
[17:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker YOu ahve a lot going n in there with frebsd and that netbooin thing
[17:36] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: I copied what you said and pasted it in and it said that it cannot stat because the file or directory doesn't exist
[17:36] <Azazel-AZ> try this
[17:36] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, btw. Can I safely remove old ones? My list is getting quite big (excluding the ones you just added)
[17:36] <Azazel-AZ> cd /mnt/harddisk/etc/x11
[17:37] <ghostlines> should be X11
[17:37] <calix> huhu =)
[17:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker Always save yourself a known stable one to go back to
[17:37] <ghostlines> in capitals
[17:37] <Azazel-AZ> thanks
[17:37] <ghostlines> cool
[17:37] <Fantec> I have a problem on ubuntu display (mostly firefox) : somes characters are unreadable but I still can copy/paste and I will get the right string
[17:37] <Photoguy> nkei0: I tried acpi=off, but no success, still stuck at login window
[17:37] <Azazel-AZ> try it again like ghostlines said
[17:37] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: Yeah ghost was right
[17:37] <Azazel-AZ> ok, now sudo reboot
[17:37] <Jack_Sparrow> X!!    looks right to me.. all caps
[17:37] <Skeptiker> Jack_Sparrow, thanks. The netbooting isn't displayed by Grub so I have no idea what it does
[17:38] <Azazel-AZ> and remove cd when prompted
[17:38] <Charles> Does anyone know of a good gdm editor
[17:38] <nkei0> Photoguy: okay, try it again with "acpi=off", "noapic", and "nolapic"
[17:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Skeptiker good luck those options should let you get back in even if they dont fix the prob
[17:38] <Photoguy> nkei0: all three at once?
[17:39] <nkei0> Photoguy: Yeah, that's what I had to do when I first installed it on my Acer Aspire laptop.  I've since gotten it down to where I am only using "acpi=off"
[17:39] <nkei0> brb, rebooting
[17:39] <Photoguy> ok
[17:41] <Charles> Ok then, I reloaded my computer because my wireless wasn't working anymore on this one only, (works on other computers with 8.10) but it still won't work, can anyone help me

[17:47] <Photoguy> nkei0: I tried that..
[17:47] <edgy> Hi, I added this using visudo "hardy ALL=NOPASSWD:     /bin/ls" but it's not working!
[17:47] <detrate> can anyone tell me a way to grep a text file but also say 2 lines before and after what I'm looking for?
[17:47] <shawnmstout> oh i came back afterwards must of missed u
[17:47] <grumpy> When you make an USB thumb drive with ubuntu 8.10 is it suppose to ask for your language each time you boot?
[17:47] <Photoguy> nkei0: Does it make any diffrence that I just changed the login screen theme?
[17:47] <Jack_Sparrow> detrate yes that is easy
[17:47] <woernsn> so.. yesterday everything went right but when i started my system today again it says in grub "Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic" instead of "Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic". And when my computer tries to boot it it just says "Error 11: Unrecognized device string. Press any key to continue..."
[17:48] <Azazel-AZ> nkei0: hasn't logged back in yet I think
[17:48] <Jack_Sparrow> detrate Is it possible to grep for some string and output also couple of lines before and after found line? "grep -C 2 <string>" also outputs 2 lines before and after the line where the string is found -A is for lines After, -B is for lines Before.. C = both
[17:48] <detrate> :) awesome!
[17:48] <detrate> thanks very much
[17:49] <Azazel-AZ> jack Sparrow, try awk
[17:49] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[17:49] <Bodom> wtf?
[17:49] <phantomcircuit> there would appear to be a memory leak in evolution
[17:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Azazel-AZ Yes awk will work too
[17:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Bodom Lose the colorful comments thanks
[17:49] <woernsn> Jack_Sparrow yesterday everything went right but when i started my system today again it says in grub "Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic" instead of "Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-11-generic". And when my computer tries to boot it it just says "Error 11: Unrecognized device string. Press any key to continue..."
[17:50] <Jack_Sparrow> woernsn Looks like you tried to insall another nix.. still cant be fixed without a livecd
[17:50] <adam__> In the bash shell, 'ls -l' is showing two owner names instead of one, why does it list two?
[17:51] <adam__> i.e 'root root'
[17:51] <woernsn> Jack_Sparrow i just wanted you to know ;) i will be back in few minutes with a livecd
[17:51] <NicDumZ> hey guys
[17:51] <Bodom> hi
[17:52] <Slart> adam__: one is the user, the other is the group
[17:53] <shawnmstout> what directory is firefox usually installed in?
[17:53] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: frown, it didn't give me any errors about screens, just about how it couldn't connect to X server this time :(
[17:53] <NicDumZ> I'm trying to troubleshoot a web display error, on a specific page, with intrepid + firefox ; can someone with this config, willing to help, pm me ?
[17:53] <Slart> shawnmstout: the binaries? or the settings?
[17:53] <adam__> slart: what is the 'group', is that like a folder of users that I can set global permissions for, instead of a base by base case?
[17:53] <shawnmstout> i want to completely remove it
[17:53] <shawnmstout> so i guess both
[17:53] <adam__> er, case by case basis
[17:53] <NicDumZ> (from what I can tell; I do reproduce it here; but can't on other OS/browsers)
[17:53] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  if you used the package manager to install.. use it to remove.
[17:53] <shawnmstout> i tried that
[17:53] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  why do you want to remove firefox anyway? whats the ACTUAL problem?
[17:53] <shawnmstout> and it didnt remove bookmarks ect....
[17:54] <shawnmstout> spyware
[17:54] <shawnmstout> and yes i looked for plugins
[17:54] <shawnmstout> none there
[17:54] <slb_> hi all
[17:54] <nkei0> hi
[17:54] <slb_> anyone using intrepid?
[17:54] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  and its not going to remove the  bookmarks and stuff.. removing the SYSTEM firefox will NOT NOT NOT touch the users settings
[17:54] <nkei0> yes
[17:54] <Slart> adam__: in linux there are users and groups.. all files are owned by a group and a user..a user can belong to many groups.. so there are groups for users that can print stuff, users that can use the soundcard, users allowed to use mail etc etc etc
[17:54] <grumpy> When you make an USB thumb drive with ubuntu 8.10 is it suppose to ask for your language each time you boot?
[17:54] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  to remove the USERS settings  remove them from the .firefox or .mozilla directory
[17:55] <slb_> nkei0, did you have problems with font rendering?
[17:55] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  no need to remove firefox from the system for that.
[17:55] <shawnmstout> ok where do i find that at dr?
[17:55] <Slart> shawnmstout: .firefox or .mozilla in your home folder are the usualy settings folders
[17:55] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  in the users home directory - every users stuff is there.. Linux keep things 'seperated' unlike windows. :)
[17:55] <adam__> Slart: I see, that makes sense. Thanks, I'll see if I can find more information via the web
[17:55] <nkei0> slb_: I haven't, no.  But i've seen posts about how it can have problems with windows fonts.
[17:55] <shawnmstout> templates then?
[17:55]  * dr_Willis notes this is a common 'Windows Thinking about a problem' Vs' Linux way'
[17:55] <dr_Willis> :)
[17:55] <Slart> shawnmstout: there might be other stuff in mozilla too.. don't just delete it.. I think thunderbird stores mail there
[17:55] <Azazel-AZ> I have to get going, I have an idea on how to fix this, but won't be back on until 3pm MST if you can wait.  if not I apologize, but I got class.  Quick overview of my tough, boot live eval cd.  ldmod | grep -I video mind the module being used. write it down.  reboot system and log into tty1 console and do the same.  type modprobe -r video_module_name and modprobe the_one_from_the_live_eval_cd
[17:56] <Azazel-AZ> lsmod not ldmod sorry
[17:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Slart I do believe those are the ones I had to delete manually in order to get a clean firefox
[17:56] <shawnmstout> no mail going on system
[17:56] <edgy> dr_Willis: can  you help me on my issue?
[17:56] <vigo> What is the command for like a dir in Linux?
[17:56] <Photoguy> nkei0: No luck with those:   Note: I did just change the login screen theme, so maybe that's the issue, any ideas for getting past the login screen?
[17:56] <NicDumZ> viezerd, : ls
[17:56] <slb_> nkei0, i'm talking about all the fonts everywhere looking crappy, and no amount of smoothing, anti-aliasing, ... fixes it
[17:56] <NicDumZ> vigo: ls
[17:56] <Jack_Sparrow> vigo ls
[17:56] <vigo> Thank you
[17:56] <bastones> Is there any way of changing screen resolution in terminal as I accidentally changed resolution to Off and whenever I login it goes black ...
[17:56] <NicDumZ> (sorry viezerd)
[17:56] <Slart> shawnmstout: why not rename them..  .mozilla to .mozilla-old and .firefox to .firefox-old
[17:56] <viezerd> ;p
[17:56] <viezerd> np
[17:57] <Mud|afk> vigo : ls -l
[17:57] <shawnmstout> sure but i need to find them first
[17:57] <slb_> nkei0, i tried intrepid and abandoned it for hardy because of it
[17:57] <Jack_Sparrow> bastones login in recovery mode and try to change it back
[17:57] <nkei0> Photoguy: You can go to recovery mode and login to root on the command line and undo it
[17:57] <edgy> dr_Willis:  I added this using visudo "hardy ALL=NOPASSWD:     /bin/ls" but it's not working!
[17:57] <shawnmstout> i looked int he home directory
[17:57] <shawnmstout> its not there
[17:57] <bastones> Jack I tried going in recovery mode it wont work ...
[17:57] <bastones> goes black again
[17:57] <nkei0> slb_: What kind of video card are you using?
[17:57] <Azazel-AZ> ok nkei0: got to go.  try that, will check back in 4 hrs at 3 mst provided irc is open at university firewall
[17:57] <woernsn> Jack_Sparrow: so i'm back again
[17:57] <Photoguy> nkei0:  any kind of guide availble?
[17:57] <slb_> nkei0, integrated
[17:57] <nkei0> Azazel-AZ: Thanks, man i appreciate it.
[17:57] <Slart> shawnmstout: folders starting with a dot are usually hidden i linux
[17:58] <mbr> hello
[17:58] <Slart> shawnmstout: ctrl+h to see them in nautilus
[17:58] <Jack_Sparrow> woernsn Livecd and you can open a terminal
[17:58] <dr_Willis> edgy,  i would read up on sudo and examples.. and be VREY VERY VERY carefull with that stuff..
[17:58] <Azazel-AZ> nkei0: once you get the default working you can go after the vendros driver
[17:58] <NicDumZ> shawnmstout, how did you look if I may ask ? ls -la ? you need "a" to show folders starting by dots
[17:58] <Azazel-AZ> later
[17:58] <woernsn> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[17:58] <nkei0> Photoguy: I've never dealt with that and i'm pretty new, but the forums would be a good place to start
[17:58] <shawnmstout> im using gksudo nautilus per jacks recommendation
[17:58] <edgy> vigo: dir itself works
[17:58] <vigo> Neato
[17:58] <Jack_Sparrow> woernsn ONe sec, I have a long command for you to paste
[17:58] <dr_Willis> edgy,  ive disabled the pasword befor.. but alway have to look up the proper way to do it in the sudo and sudoers man pages
[17:58] <Slart> shawnmstout: try ctrl+h
[17:58] <shawnmstout> ok
[17:58] <mbr> Ive got a question: how can I mount a Big-Endian UDF filesystem on an Intel (little-endian) Linux system?
[17:58] <woernsn> Jack_Sparrow: oke.. i'll be patient ;)
[17:58] <slb_> nkei0, Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[17:59] <the6step> is there gvim in ubuntu?
[17:59] <shawnmstout> there we go
[17:59] <the6step> I'm kind of new at this, how do I get gvim in ubuntu?
[17:59] <Slart> the6step: afaik, yes
[17:59] <dr_Willis> !info gvim
[17:59] <Jack_Sparrow> woernsn sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cp /etc/fstab ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo fdisk -l >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && sudo blkid >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && lsb_release -a >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst >> ~/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt && cat /home/$USER/Desktop/Partition_Layout.txt | pastebinit  (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[17:59] <moljac024> hey guys I need help
[17:59] <dr_Willis> !info vim
[17:59] <edgy> dr_Willis: there is already an example on the file and I just uncomment and used that. I don't care about security now I just want to understand it
[17:59] <NicDumZ> yes the6step just install it
[17:59] <nkei0> slb_: google fglrx, I've seen that can fix quite a few things with integrated cards
[17:59] <MrElendig> the6step: there is if you install it
[17:59] <Jack_Sparrow> moljac024 Just ask
[17:59] <Photoguy> nkei0:  that's the problem, I've been searching. :P
[17:59] <moljac024> does anyone have any idea why network manager wouldn't be able to handle wireless ?
[17:59] <the6step> NicDumZ: I tried sudo aptitude install gvim
[17:59] <ahmed> Hi there!
[17:59] <moljac024> it doesn't pick up any signals
[17:59] <dr_Willis> edgy,  i dont know it by heart well enough to say.  just be carefull Heh
[17:59] <shawnmstout> still no firefox directory though, im in root btw
[17:59] <MrElendig> moljac024: yes, it sucks, specially 0.6
[17:59] <Jack_Sparrow> moljac024 Is it an openor encrypted system
[17:59] <the6step> MrElendig: I don't know what command to use to install it
[17:59] <moljac024> ifconfig shows wlan0 present
[17:59] <MrElendig> the6step: man apt-get
[17:59] <edgy> dr_Willis: thanks ;)
[18:00] <nkei0> Photoguy: Sorry, I haven't messed with it really.  I've only been using linux for about 3 months and it's been generally problem free
[18:00] <woernsn> Jack_Sparrow: No LSB modules are available.
[18:00] <woernsn> cat: /boot/grub/menu.lst: No such file or directory
[18:00] <Slart> shawnmstout: there's no reason to run nautilus as root if you just want to do stuff in your home folder
[18:00] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  ' ls -a  ' and look and the .settings stuff in the ROOT users home will not be affecting the users
[18:00] <slb_> moljac024, use iwconfig
[18:00] <moljac024> MrElendig: what are you doing in here dude ? :D
[18:00] <grumpy> When you make an USB thumb drive with ubuntu 8.10 is it suppose to ask for your language each time you boot?
[18:00] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  learn to use the shell.. its our friend.
[18:00] <MrElendig> moljac024: what are you doing in here dude?
[18:00] <Photoguy> nkei0: thanks for your help.
[18:00] <moljac024> slb_: this isn't my computer
[18:00] <nkei0> grumpy: It shouldn't unless it's trying to install every time?
[18:00] <Slart> shawnmstout: and you want to look in /home/shawnmstout/ or whatever your login name is
[18:00] <shawnmstout> no .settings folder
[18:00] <moljac024> the owner isn't very tech savy
[18:00] <shawnmstout> in the root
[18:00] <edgy> grumpy: it's like a live cd so yes it would
[18:00] <moljac024> and he needs it to access hot spots
[18:00] <MrElendig> moljac024: you should be installing arch on the box asap
[18:00] <shawnmstout> .config but only 1 file there
[18:01] <NicDumZ> the6step, if you do "sudo apt-get install gvim", it'll tell you the name of the package is vim-gnome if you use gnome
[18:01] <Jack_Sparrow> woernsn YOu need to run those commands against the hard drive not from the live part of the session.. I am also running out of time
[18:01] <moljac024> MrElendig: not my box :D
[18:01] <grumpy> edgy, any way i can make the usb drive like a regular hard disk?
[18:01] <moljac024> I'm just supposed to fix it
[18:01] <nkei0> later guys
[18:01] <slb_> moljac024, what version of ubuntu is he using?
[18:01] <edgy> grumpy: you can make a persistent install on the usb just like you install to a hard drive
[18:01] <Jack_Sparrow> moljac024 the fix might mean buying a fully supported card
[18:01] <moljac024> it's 8.04
[18:01] <grumpy> edgy, oh, ok, nothing special to it, just do it in the same way as I would a hard disk?
[18:01] <moljac024> I believe everything worked ok when I installed it
[18:01] <edgy> grumpy: I haven't tried it before but it should work normally
[18:01] <vigo> I upgraded to interpid and now the other disks cannot be accessed, or mounted, is there a better thingy than Wine that works for this so that I can move certain files that I wish to keep before the full Linux install?
[18:01] <shawnmstout> dr willis care if i msg u?
[18:01] <miha> offtopic: i finally learned who aXXo is:)
[18:02] <Photoguy> Does anybody know how (or know of a forum thread) about how to bypass the graphical login screen? I must have installed a faulty theme :P
[18:02] <grumpy> edgy, i'll go try it right now
[18:02] <Jack_Sparrow> edgy persistent mode runs off livecd session but all changes are written to the usb
[18:02] <NicDumZ> Photoguy, ctrl+alt+f1 ?
[18:02] <Photoguy> Yes, but what commanbds?
[18:02] <slb_> moljac024, nm-applet in roaming mode
[18:02] <woernsn> Jack_Sparrow: oke.. i'll try
[18:02] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  im baby sitting somay have to leave at any time.  ask the channel if ya got a specific question
[18:02] <grumpy> jack_sparrow, yet my persisten mode asks me for the language on reboot every time...
[18:02] <moljac024> slb_: that's the thing
[18:02] <NicDumZ> Photoguy, that should switch to console 1, then here you can log in in text mode, and remove the theme
[18:02] <shawnmstout> ok how do i delete the history out cause im not seeing a .settings in the root directory
[18:03] <moljac024> nm-applet doesn't seem to recogize the wireless card
[18:03] <Photoguy> But, does it go to the desktop and all that?
[18:03] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  that was a example      name     Firefx stuff is saved in -->   .mozilla/
[18:03] <slb_> moljac024, sure that the laptop has no on/off switch for the wifi radio
[18:03] <moljac024> also, I tried opening synaptic and it just doesn't start
[18:04] <moljac024> slb_: sure
[18:04] <Schizo_77127> jdfjdsfe
[18:04] <slb_> moljac024, try sudo aptitude
[18:04] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  and for example 'Wine' stuff is saved in --> .wine/
[18:04] <moljac024> can someone bork Ubuntu this much ?
[18:04] <uman> Hi everyone. I just got out of a huge problem yesterday, by reinstalling grub and being able to boot ubuntu 8.10 again. Unfortunately though, after being able to back into ubuntu and installing a new kernel Ive been having terrible problems. After a few minutes of logging in, i get abruptely logge out and have to log back in (so all my apps are closed). Then, after a few more minutes my computer freezes. The screen freezes completely, the clock stops running
[18:04] <uman> and i cant use the mouse or keyboard. Any idea what could be causing this and if I should downgrade my kernel and if so how? Thanks in advance, I hope i get help before my pc freeezes again.
[18:04] <moljac024> slb_: I tried the gnome menu entry
[18:04] <bastones> can someone please tell me how to change screen resolution in terminal as I cannot login it just goes black
[18:04] <moljac024> that should include gksudo
[18:04] <moljac024> right ?
[18:04] <moljac024> gksu
[18:04] <moljac024> whatever
[18:04] <FloodBot1> moljac024: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:04] <the6step> NicDumZ: Thanks
[18:04] <shawnmstout> ok but im not seeeing .mozilla .firefox or anything similar
[18:04] <PSPdemon> im having issues compiling cdirip 6.2
[18:04] <shawnmstout> how can i find out where its installed
[18:04] <slb_> moljac024, it should ask for password from menu
[18:04] <NicDumZ> the6step, welcome =)
[18:05] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  are you looking in the USERS home directory? or root's home ? /root  vs /home/username/
[18:05] <slb_> moljac024, hold on, there's another wireless/wired network manager that's good, can't recall, anyone else??
[18:05] <moljac024> slb_: it doesn't, I'm afraid of even begging to look a little deeper to find out what the heck is wrong with the system
[18:05] <rainmanp7> I have known people that could bork anything up ubuntu.conversations,living life,windows,dos,any distro you name it
[18:05] <shawnmstout> i have looked in both placed
[18:05] <shawnmstout> places*
[18:05] <moljac024> slb_: do you mean wicd ?
[18:05] <Templis_> HI! Just disabled and enabled wireless network (right mouse on tray), but it stopped to work!
[18:06] <rainmanp7> It's like those people the Bork running away from a monster in a horror movie
[18:06] <slb_> yes, tried it?
[18:06] <magnetik> Hi
[18:07] <vigo> I Thank you all kindly for the help and information.
[18:07] <dr_Willis> shawnmstout,  then i imagine you are either doing somthng basic wrong.. or its gone.   as a USER.. no need to be root at all   use the command   '    ls -al .mozilla   '
[18:07] <slb_> moljac024, yes, wicd
