[22:45] <Stevethepirate> Hi. I'm trying to install a .deb, by right-clicking, installing.. but it fails.. no message and terminal in the installer shows nothing...
[22:45] <kyle> SeverdCross: how can i find the info your asking for?
[22:45] <SeveredCross> kyle: It should be on the box.
[22:45] <SeveredCross> (Sorry, I'm busy and am about to leave soon)
[22:45] <SeveredCross> It'll tell you the version of the card.
[22:45] <SeveredCross> With that, you should be able to find something on the Ubuntu wiki or Google.
[22:45] <blario6> Odd: is it normal to have more than one xorg.conf file?
[22:46] <kyle> ive found alot about installing drivers.
[22:46] <kyle> but nothing on getting ubuntu to see the card.
[22:46] <Odd-rationale> blario6: you can have backups. but there can only be one /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[22:46] <WatchDragon> how do i remove something from the applications menu?
[22:46] <Odd-rationale> blario6: what is your card again?
[22:46] <kyle> even the network manager doesnt have a wireless option.
[22:47] <blario6> Odd: Radeon 9250 PCI

[22:50] <blario6> Odd-rationale : cool thanks.. i don't know if you saw my message about my card.. it's a Radeon 9250. I noticed on a few sites that the earlier Radeon card supported is the 9500..
[22:50] <linuxfce> i installed restricted nvidia drivers off the website and it messed things up and im stuck on the free driver
[22:50] <Jadewolf> Kyle: have you check to make sure it is supported?
[22:51] <linuxfce> when i try to reinstall nvidia-glx-new it installs ok but xorg.conf isnt linked to it?
[22:51] <kyle> yes. it shows lynksys wmp54g is supported JadeWolf
[22:51] <kevinO> when running memtest, is it normal to have some bad
[22:51] <KenBW2> I'm trying to move 600MB of files from an external SD Card to a USB Stick. I have 120MB free space on the Hard Drive. Why does it always fill up my Hard Drive?

[22:52] <billyholiday> is there any way to continue upgrading to 8.04 if it stalls in the middle?

[22:54] <billyholiday> if i can't get onto ubuntu, and i'm on a live cd, is there a way to get to my files through the terminal?
[22:55] <kevinO> billyholiday, , mount your hard drive through terminal
[22:55] <Stevethepirate> How can I make apt-get's go through a socks proxy?
[22:55] <Odd-rationale> blario6: well, i could try to get you setup with the drivers from ati.com... but it is not officially supported... you might have troubles when the kernel updates or something...
[22:55] <billyholiday> kevinO: how would i go about doing that?
[22:55] <kevinO> billyholiday, is is a sata drive?
[22:55] <josegre> !es
[22:56] <billyholiday> kevinO: sadly i don't know. is there an easy way to find out?
[22:56] <ianliu_88> I have installed java WTK but it is not working properly on my ubuntu. Any tips?
[22:56] <blario6> Odd-rationale i think i'm just going to do a fresh install of ubuntu.. everything worked fine until i tried to add tv-out support.
[22:56] <kevinO> billyholiday, one sec
[22:56] <linuxfce> it seems like the free driver for nvidia has gotten better
[22:56] <Odd-rationale> blario6: ok. good luck!
[22:56] <blario6> Thanks! and thanks again for the help
[22:57] <KenBW2> kevinO: yea, its a 2GB EeePC
[22:57] <Mecha25> KenBW2: you using xubuntu?
[22:57] <billyholiday> kevinO: ok
[22:57] <KenBW2> Mecha25: yea
[22:57] <kevinO> billyholiday, do ls /dev/ and see if there is an sda or hda in the lest
[22:57] <kevinO> list*
[22:57] <Kernel> hello all. i used the netboot install method(cd drive is dead in the laptop) everything went fine untill i rebooted and realized that it installed the bootloader onto the usb drive. so not a big deal i installed grub onto the laptop drive..but when i rebooted to test it out...it just hangs....i used the alternative install cd and used the encrypted drive with lvm...so i know it created a seperate /boot ..but what i dont know is if i need to do anything
[22:57] <Kernel>  special for it to work?....
[22:57] <Mecha25> KenBW2: the drive doesn't appear in your Places menu?
[22:58] <Stevethepirate> How can I make apt-get's go through a socks proxy?
[22:58] <KenBW2> Mecha25: yea
[22:58] <MACscr> can I not change my ip address when using the livecd? When I try to configure eth0 using the Network Tools app, it says that eth0 does not exist
[22:58] <billyholiday> sda
[22:58] <Mecha25> KenBW2: I don't know xubuntu, but I'm surprised anything at all runs on a 2GB hard drive
[22:58] <KenBW2> Mecha25: im trying to install Ubuntu to the USB Drive a la http://www.pendrivelinux.com/tag/casper/
[22:58] <billyholiday> kevinO: sda
[22:59] <KenBW2> Mecha25: yea, just about. if you dont like big apps
[22:59] <kevinO> billyholiday, ok try sudo mount /dev/sda/
[22:59] <billyholiday> kevinO: my bad mad its an hda
[22:59] <Mecha25> KenBW2: I can do that, sort of.  You do a regular install from the live CD, target your USB drive, and make sure you put the bootloader on the drive, not your main disk, or your computer will be screwed
[23:00] <Mecha25> I made that mistake the first time I tried
[23:00] <billyholiday> kevinO: i replaced /dev/sda/ with /dev/hda/ and igot this mount: can't find /dev/hda/ in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
[23:00] <blario6> Odd-rationale you there? just wanted to update you on what happened
[23:00] <Odd-rationale> blario6: yeah?
[23:00] <Jadewolf> Has anyone here ever setup postfix and got it working with Ubuntu 8.04? I want to know if its even possible? the Ubuntu how to sites setup if you follow it to the letter does not work.

[23:14] <kevinO> hmm, do they show up in "Computer"
[23:14] <ompaul> muppetexperience, when that fails then you can consider other options, but the restricted driver is always the first way, after that you are in the land of "I wonder will this work"
[23:14] <kevinO> what is casper, one of the files?
[23:14] <KenBW2> kevinO: yea, theyre definitely mounted

[23:17] <unop> KenBW2, what's the error message you get?

[23:17] <unop> KenBW2, exact error?
[23:17] <kevinO> yes please
[23:17] <KenBW2> kevinO: erm, ill try it again

[23:19] <unop> Dein, you have configured eth0 to recieve an IP address automatically but no DHCP servers can be reached
[23:19] <KenBW2> dianapo: try the Sound and Multimedia forum, they'll be more specialist in that field
[23:19] <kevinO> KenBW2, put a / after install/mt86plus like: install/mt86plus/
[23:19] <kevinO> maybe that will help?
[23:19] <Dein> unop: so how can i stop it?
[23:19] <KenBW2> kevinO: "No space left on device"
[23:19] <unop> Dein, disable the eth0 interface?
[23:20] <Dein> unop: but how can i go online then?
[23:20] <kevinO> KenBW2, how much swap do you have setup?
[23:20] <KenBW2> kevinO: 1GB
[23:20] <kevinO> KenBW2, how much ram?
[23:20] <unop> KenBW2,  df -Th  # how much space left on the device before copying?
[23:20] <KenBW2> kevinO: 512MB
[23:21] <unop> Dein,  you probably are using another interface to connect to the net
[23:21] <KenBW2> unop: there's plenty of space on both

[23:25] <ed__> How do I kill X?
[23:25] <KenBW2> ed__: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[23:25] <ed__> Didn't work.
[23:25] <unop> sammino, it's hardly ever that you will use 2GB swap space -- but that's a safe default
[23:25] <sammino> how difficult is it to change the swap after installation?
[23:25] <ed__> It just exited to the display manager.
[23:25] <Dein> dokwerk: i have set there that i use eth0 interface to connect to the internet
[23:25] <KenBW2> sammino: very easy
[23:25] <ed__> I want to get rid of all GUI.
[23:25] <unop> sammino, not very
[23:25] <KenBW2> ed__: do you mean permanently?
[23:25] <LinuxGuy1234> sammino: yes, it's a rec. specs but not required
[23:25] <dokwerk> Dein, is there shown eth1 too?
[23:26] <ed__> KenBW2: No; it's just that I messed it up with a config program.
[23:26] <Dein> dokwerk: no
[23:26] <ed__> So I'm trying to rewrite my xorg.conf
[23:26] <ryknow_> When i go to system/ preferences and click on main menu, nothing happens?
[23:26] <KenBW2> ed__: theres a dpkg command, i forget it now
[23:26] <sammino> cool, i want to make sure that if i run xp in vmware, that it will run at a erformance
[23:26] <Sylphid> ed__, ctrl +alt+f1
[23:26] <sammino> performance
[23:26] <ed__> Thanks
[23:26] <afka> je voudrai savoir quelqu'un pourait m'aider pour installer un equivalent pour flashplayer j'ai quelque problme :/
[23:26] <dokwerk> Dein, choose properties. Is roaming modus activated?
[23:26] <unop> !fr | afka
[23:26] <Dein> dokwerk: no, it is set to dhcp
[23:26] <Pharao2k> hi, someone here who could help me fix the network bridging of my xen setup? it´s nearly vanilla, I´ve got a linux and windows vm to work, but without network :(
[23:27] <zerogate> ed__, do you use gnome?
[23:27] <zvacet> sammino : to make your vmware run good give it half of your ram
[23:27] <unop> afka, allez a #ubuntu-fr pour l'aide en francais, merci!
[23:27] <sammino> is there a good documentation somewhere that walks me thru changing my swap? or if there is a gui ui to do it
[23:27] <n-iCe> !chroot
[23:27] <dokwerk> try to choose roaming modus and reboot @ Dein
[23:27] <ed__> sylphid: I'm not just trying to get to a virtual terminal; I'm trying to kill x so I can start it again.
[23:27] <MACscr> can I use a standard db9 cable from radio shack for a console cable?
[23:27] <zerogate> ed__, do you use gnome?
[23:27] <psilo-> can someone help me connect to my wireless router using WPA2?
[23:27] <Sylphid> ed__, ctrl + alt + Backspace will restart which you will need to do after any xorg.conf changes
[23:27] <ed__> zerogate: Yes I do, but I can't exit because the display is so horrible messed up.
[23:27] <Sylphid> ed__, restart X that is
[23:27] <sammino> zvacet, is that including swap?
[23:28] <zerogate> ed__, sudo killall gdm
[23:28] <ed__> Sylphid: Doesn't seem to be doing so... let' see if I actually wrote out this xorg.conf
[23:28] <unop> the bot's being slow today
[23:28] <ed__> zerogate: wonderful thanks
[23:28] <unop> zerogate, better to.   sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop
[23:28] <zerogate> ed__, my ubuntu sometimes hangs up when i do this though
[23:28] <zvacet> sammino : no,your phisycal ram you will see it when you configure vmware
[23:28] <zerogate> unop, gdm stop doesn't work for me
[23:28] <psilo-> can someone help me connect to my wireless router using WPA2?  I have a broadcom card and have been searching for hours with no avail, i've even installed wicd but it just hangs when trying to "obtain an IP"
[23:29] <ed__> Okay zerogate, it worked.
[23:29] <ed__> Except I needed to killall, not just kill
[23:29] <ed__> 'cause kill wants a PID
[23:29] <unop> zerogate, it ought to, killing gdm directly doesn't give a chance for pid files to be cleaned up
[23:29] <bobertdos> psilo: You'd probably be better off using ndisgtk.
[23:30] <matroska> join After.All.org #wareztuga
[23:30] <ed__> Right, now I need my xorg.conf restored.
[23:30] <matroska> bahhh
[23:30] <ed__> I've got gnome working, but with a few porblems.
[23:30] <ph8> !kvote matroska
[23:30] <Jadewolf> Is there a way to force apt-get to isntall a package I have a package that got "stuck" and I can't remove or install it
[23:30] <ph8> you should do
[23:30] <eugen> hello
[23:30] <ryknow_> Would anyone be able to help me out? Can't get to the main menu tab in preferences. Using Hardy x64.
[23:30] <ed__> I suppose I could really do with getting a proper xorg.conf again.
[23:30] <n-iCe> @chroot
[23:30] <ph8> Jadewolf:  'stuck'?
[23:31] <eugen> can somebody assist me in trying to get my sound to function on my laptop?
[23:31] <muffin-stump> Hi everyone
[23:31] <ph8> eugen:  Do you know what kind of sound card you have?
[23:31] <unop> Jadewolf, stuck, how exactly?
[23:31] <Sylphid> Jadewolf, try sudo apt-get autoclean
[23:31] <zerogate> unop, hmm - ah you'Re right! it didn'T work because i was executing gdm while being in /etc/init.d insted of executing ./gdm
[23:31] <zvacet> Jadewolf : sudo apt-get install --reinstall packagename
[23:31] <eugen> how do i find out?
[23:31] <eugen> "aplay -l" ?
[23:31] <ph8> eugen:  type 'lspci' at a terminal and look for something that looks like a sound card
[23:31] <psilo-> can someone help me with my wicd configurations?
[23:31] <muffin-stump> can someone tell me how to boot a live session from ram, so I can eject the live CD and use the drive for something else?
[23:32] <ph8> muffin-stump:  I think if you just boot a live cd as you would expect to, then remove the disk - it works
[23:32] <ph8> i might be wrong?
[23:32] <eugen> ok I have "00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)"
[23:32] <muffin-stump> ph8: I tried that, but the drive is locked so pushing the eject button doesn't do anything
[23:33] <ryknow_> how can I get sound in Firefox?
[23:33] <ph8> i see
[23:33] <ryknow_> Using Creative Xfi Extreme gamer.
[23:33] <Jadewolf> http://paste.ubuntu.com/30120/ <-- when I sudo apt-get install --reinstall dovecot-common
[23:33] <ryknow_> fatal1ty edition
[23:33] <Dein> dokwerk: will i be able to connect via adsl if i change to roaming?
[23:33] <fidel_> hi I'm new in linux. I need help, could somebody tell me how can I install applications
[23:33] <muffin-stump> I remember some old releases had an option in the boot menu on the CD, but its gone in Hardy :/
[23:33] <unop> muffin-stump, you can't eject the CD - it's needed for ubuntu to maintain the session
[23:34] <ryknow_> applications, add/remove applications?
[23:34] <dokwerk> are you connected to a router, Dein?
[23:34] <ph8> ryknow_:  I'm not sure X-fi is supported on Ubuntu yet, have a google - i think there are lots of threads on ubuntuforums.org
[23:34] <unop> muffin-stump, what's on the other CD you need to use?
[23:34] <ryknow_> I have sound working
[23:34] <Dein> dokwerk: must admit that i am not sure
[23:34] <ph8> fidel_:  Do you have ubuntu installed?
[23:34] <eugen> Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[23:34] <nickrud> Jadewolf, take a look at /var/log/syslog, see why starting dovecot failed
[23:34] <ryknow_> I followed the tutorial on the Ubuntu site
[23:34] <fidel_> well I working with ubuntu
[23:34] <ph8> eugen:  That's pretty standard IMO, should just work
[23:34] <ryknow_> It works with XMMS, VLC and what not
[23:34] <ph8> eugen:  You get no sound at all?
[23:34] <muffin-stump> unop: I have one CD drive and I am trying to run a live session entirely from RAM, so I can free up the drive for something else.
[23:34] <ryknow_> I just don't have sound while in firefox.
[23:34] <eugen> no sound...
[23:34] <ed__> okay, all this ilk should be getting cleared up now.
[23:35] <unop> muffin-stump, what's on the other CD you need to use?
[23:35] <eugen> I have the "Asus m51 Series" laptop
[23:35] <dokwerk> Dein, you can give it a try. If it doesn't work you can go back to the old configuration
[23:35] <Dein> dokwerk: is there a way to stop the dhclient flood if this fails?
[23:35] <eugen> Under Sound preferences... I ahve everuthing set to autodetect
[23:35] <eugen> is that ok?
[23:35] <fidel_> I red something about apt-get
[23:35] <dokwerk> I'm on DSL via router and have the roaming option on and it works for me
[23:35] <ph8> eugen:  Have you seen this? -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=753679
[23:36] <eugen> I did...I it didn't work for me....unless I did something wrong..
[23:36] <billyholiday> kevinO: i used sudo mount /dev/hda5/
[23:36] <Jadewolf> nickrud: I actually want to reinstall it as the config files were messed up for some reason and I wanted to fix them to default
[23:36] <muffin-stump> unup: ?? there is no other CD per se, I simply want a CD drive that I can use for whatever.  for example, burning a CD with files I have to save before turning the computer off
[23:36] <glitsj16> ryknow_: are your sound related plugins loaded in firefox ?
[23:37] <fidel_> the problem is that when I want to install a package I get an error: "the package is not found"
[23:37] <psilo-> Can anyone in here help me with WPA2, i really don't want to switch my router to WEP :(
[23:37] <Sylphid> fidel_, what pagckage are you trying to install?
[23:38] <fidel_> vmwaretools-5.5.1
[23:38] <unclemike_> in kde why would i have more package in synaptic then adept does
[23:38] <billyholiday> is there a way to upgrade to 8.04 through the terminal?
[23:38] <ryknow_> hmmm, I don't see any sound related plugins listed.
[23:38] <ryknow_> How might I add them?
[23:38] <fidel_> I'm working with a virtual machine
[23:38] <muffin-stump> billyholiday: sudo apt-get dist upgrade
[23:38] <nickrud> Jadewolf, you can edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/dovecot*postrm , to prevent the daemon starts
[23:39] <Odd-rationale> !upgrade | billyholiday
[23:39] <dokwerk> Dein : look at this, please : http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Configuring_Ubuntu_Linux_Wireless_Networking
[23:39] <Jadewolf> nickrud: I'm not concenred with the daemons right now I want to totally remove dovecot and all its sub pacakges
[23:39] <billyholiday> muffin-stump: how would i go about doing that if i was on a live cd?
[23:39] <vaylence> I'm trying to install, get to the partitioner, but there is no partition listed, and none of the tabs on top work, ideas?
[23:39] <Sylphid> fidel_, im not seing a vmware tools package in the repos... are you sure thats the right package?
[23:39] <nickrud> Jadewolf, the problem is the removal of -imapd is trying to start the daemon, and fails. So, edit out the start.
[23:39] <glitsj16> ryknow_: well there you are .. you can try mozilla-mplayer (depends on mplayer) which covers lots of the usual music mime types .. and flashplugin-nonfree for flash support
[23:40] <Dein> dokwerk: i am not on wireless, if that changes things
[23:40] <muffin-stump> billyholiday: On a live CD i'm not sure it's possible, except to download a new CD image of 8.04 and boot with that
[23:40] <fidel_> itś a package of vmware aplicattion
[23:40] <nickrud> Jadewolf, you may find similar issues with -pop3 as well, according to later in the error messages
[23:40] <Wolfman2000> Hmm.  I'm trying to use aptitude to install svn, but aptitude install svn doesn't work.  I'm trying to find a good command line client.  Which one do you guys recommend?
[23:40] <fidel_> I mean itś not from ubuntu
[23:40] <ryknow_> Ohh yeah, I have flash quicktime, shockwave, vlc, windows media player, divx, etc for plugins in Firefox.
[23:40] <billyholiday> muffin-stump: fudge, if i were to reinstall over 7.10 would all my files be gone? is there a way that ubuntu knows to save my files?
[23:41] <ryknow_> I thought you were looking for sound specific.
[23:41] <ryknow_> I was looking for something creative related in the plugins list.
[23:41] <zvacet>
[23:41] <zvacet> Jadewolf :sudo apt-get --purge remove <package>
[23:41] <zvacet>
[23:41] <FloodBot1> zvacet: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:41] <histo> Wolfman2000: what do you mena by command line client?
[23:42] <zvacet> FloodBot1 : sorry,my mistake
[23:42] <kapace> IS THERE A ON SCREEN KEYBOARD, OR ANOTHER WAY TO DISABLE CAPS?
[23:42] <muffin-stump> billyholiday: you can safely perform a distribution upgrade without losing your personal files.  dist-upgrades wont effect files in the /home directory
[23:42] <histo> kapace: hit the capslock
[23:42] <Wolfman2000> I wish to use svn on command line/terminal/xterm.
[23:42] <nickrud> zvacet, won't work, the configs are broken to the point the packages can't uninstall themselfs
[23:42] <Odd-rationale> kapace: shift?
[23:42] <vaylence> I'm trying to install, get to the partitioner, but there is no partition listed, and none of the tabs on top work, ideas?
[23:42] <glitsj16> ryknow_: i don't think there is anything creative related for firefox plugin, besides something proprietary, don't know about that .. but even vlc plugin produces no sound for instance ?
[23:42] <kapace> CAN'T, IM ON VNC
[23:42] <Wolfman2000> that is, check out with svn checkout URL branch, update with svn update, etc
[23:42] <__yy> kapace: most people use the caps lock key for that.
[23:42] <ryknow_> yup.
[23:42] <ryknow_> None
[23:42] <unop> muffin-stump, you might like to boot off an ISO on a harddrive - http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/quantian/howto_lilogrub.html
[23:42] <J-_> where is the regular pidgin icon placed in Ubuntu?
[23:42] <kapace> AND IT WON'T DO IT
[23:42] <histo> Wolfman2000: I'm not sure what you mean by svn .  svn is for installation of upstream source code.
[23:42] <Sylphid> fidel_, http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-vmware-server-on-ubuntu-8.04
[23:43] <ryknow_> For instance. If I go to Youtube, and get no sound on any video there.
[23:43] <Jadewolf> zvacet: that didn't work either
[23:43] <histo> !svn > Wolfman2000
[23:43] <glitsj16> ryknow_: it might be that flash has blocked firefox sound output, isn't uncomman at all, using flash player 9 ?
[23:43] <zvacet>  Jadewolf : sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq packagename
[23:43] <Trumpf> Fucking bots
[23:43] <kapace> oh yea < shift as a temporary fix
[23:43] <Wolfman2000> ...right, needed to use the full name of "Subversion"
[23:43] <billyholiday> muffin-stump: yeah i know that, however, i tried upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04, but it halted in the middle, so i restarted my comp, and now after logging in it goes to a blank screen, so since i can't burn 8.04, i am gonna reinstall 7.10 hoping it won't wipe out my files
[23:43] <ryknow_> Flash 9.0rl24
[23:43] <histo> kapace: try under accesiblity options
[23:43] <kapace> K
[23:44] <muffin-stump> unop: maybe, but in the past there was a very simple way to run straight from ram, just by telling the live CD to copy the image to ram first.  after that you could eject the disk and be on your way
[23:44] <allaun> i have a monitor running at 1440x900 and all my windows want to stay at the upper left hand corner without any frames/boxes
[23:44] <javagamer> Hi
[23:44] <fidel_> what I know is I have to use the Synaptic to install packages, but what happen if I need Install one that is not in the repos...
[23:44] <hansengel> hi, where are icons for most applications stored? I looked in /usr/share/icons but I couldn't find them anywhere. I'm looking for basic app icons like Firefox, XChat, Thunderbird, etc.
[23:44] <muffin-stump> unop: im sure there's a boot option for it still, but the menu entry for it is gone on the new release
[23:44] <fidel_> somebody can help me please???
[23:44] <nickrud> Jadewolf, as a test, gksudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/dovecot-imapd.postrm , and comment out all the lines after #Restart Dovecot .  Then run you uninstall again, you'll see you loose dovecot-imapd
[23:45] <KrimZon> does anyone know how to get gnome to treat xml files with different extensions as different mime types?
[23:45] <allaun> this is a fresh install
[23:45] <Sylphid> fidel_, did you follow my link?
[23:45] <glitsj16> ryknow_: you might try the flash 10 beta 2 .. either get it from adobe yourself (the tarball) or get the .deb for flashplugin-nonfree that is in intrepid (that way you keep your apt in shape)
[23:45] <mysticdarkhack> anyone know a way to fix totem-mozilla dis colorise
[23:45] <javagamer> Anyone able to use the most recent version of lxml?  I've tried everything I can think of, but it won't compile.
[23:45] <kapace> histo: CAN'T SEE a virtual keyboard or anything< hmm
[23:45] <mysticdarkhack> the video place alight but the color look bright or shoppy
[23:45] <fidel_> no really, tell me what is your link???
[23:45] <Sylphid> fidel_, http://www.howtoforge.com/installing-vmware-server-on-ubuntu-8.04
[23:46] <mysticdarkhack> video play I meant
[23:46] <ryknow_> ok I'll give that a shot. Also...while I have someone listening to me. =P When I go to preferences and click on Main menu, nothing happens.
[23:46] <muffin-stump> billyholiday: can you boot in recovery mode?  if you have internet access, and you can get so much as a terminal login, you can dist-upgrade
[23:46] <ryknow_> I just want to rearrainge how things are laid out in the main menua.
[23:46] <ryknow_> menu*
[23:46] <mysticdarkhack> anyone?
[23:46] <soooool> Enter text here...06470627064a
[23:46] <nickrud> ryknow_, try right clicking the menu itself, and choose edit
[23:46] <javagamer> ryknow_: Rught click the menu and go to edit menu.
[23:46] <histo> kapace: it shouldn't matter what the remote system is doing though for your caps
[23:47] <fidel_> ok, I get it. let me see
[23:47] <glitsj16> ryknow_: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/flashplugin-nonfree is where you can find the intrepid one, that's flash 10 beta 2
[23:47] <soooool> 06450641064a0634 063906310628
[23:47] <kapace> histo: I know< but it just seems to be stuck
[23:47] <mysticdarkhack> guess no one knows
[23:47] <ryknow_> edit menus doesn't work either.
[23:47] <nickrud> soooool, what are you trying to post? It's not english
[23:47] <ryknow_> When I click on it...nothing happens.
[23:47] <nickrud> ryknow_, run   alacarte   in a terminal
[23:47] <sCOTTo> gday ppl

[23:49] <fidel_> thanks Sylphid
[23:49] <citizen42alpha> hello pickles.
[23:49] <sCOTTo> I have a question - I want to start marketing Ubuntu throughout Sydney Aust in the next 12 months as a fantastic alternative to Windows - can anyone here give me some tips, also is there some type of client / server setup for giving remote desktop support?
[23:49] <nickrud> ryknow_, now you know not to paste here :)  Put the output on paste.ubuntu.com
[23:50] <ryknow_> heh...sorry about that guys. First time I've used Xchat.
[23:50] <nickrud> sCOTTo, you might want to check in #ubuntu-au , the loco people hang out there and can help with promoting ubuntu
[23:51] <sCOTTo> thanks nickrud
[23:51] <histo> sCOTTo: give away free cds
[23:51] <Sylphid> sCOTTo, for remote support you can use VNC and/or X11 forwarding....i believe there is also a RDC option
[23:51] <histo> sCOTTo: check witht he ship it program see if you can get some sent to you to give out.
[23:51] <vaylence> I'm trying to install, get to the partitioner, but there is no partition listed, and none of the tabs on top work, ideas?
[23:51] <muffin-stump> So, anyone know whether there's a boot option for running a live session from RAM without depending on the CD?
[23:51] <Bardo>  hiho
[23:52] <histo> sCOTTo: system > preferences > remote desktop
[23:52] <ryknow_> I pasted the error at paste. ubuntu.com
[23:52] <histo> sCOTTo: they can allow others to view their desktop with permision first or by giving a password.
[23:52] <zvacet> ryknow_ : send url here
[23:53] <Jadewolf> Jul 24 15:52:16 desktop dovecot: Killed with signal 15 \n Jul 24 15:52:16 desktop dovecot: Dovecot v1.0.10 starting up <-- does that mean dovecot is running?
[23:53] <ryknow_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/30126/
[23:53] <sCOTTo> i am wanting a program for remote support that works like this: MYOFFICE = SERVER - the client has an auto login to this server if they need help they can get it at the press ofa  button - then I can hit repond button and it brings up remote desktop to thier system... doesnt that sound like a good idea??
[23:53] <orsi> anyone know how to get sonata 1.4.2 to display lyrics? (python-zsi already installed but that doesnt seem top help)
[23:53] <histo> Jadewolf: looks like it crashed and restrated
[23:53] <Jadewolf> histo: but it should be running right?
[23:53] <histo> Jadewolf: but you can ps aux | grep dove    and see
[23:53] <Jadewolf> cause I can't telnet to 110
[23:53] <kiyiko> i have my music stored on a sepperate hard drive,, when i open rythembox i have to load it all again. is there a way to make it outomount the drive?
[23:54] <nickrud> ryknow_, hm, let me look
[23:54] <histo> Jadewolf: isn't dovecot a mail server?
[23:54] <Jadewolf> telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[23:54] <KrimZon> aha, fixed it - the codeblocks installer was slightly wrong
[23:54] <zvacet> muffin-stump : do you want to eject CD and still have Ubuntu runing
[23:54] <orsi> or is there any version of sonata above 1.4.2 available somewhere?
[23:54] <ryknow_> cool thanks. It's a rather annoying problem. Any help would be great!
[23:54] <Jadewolf> histo: yes its pop3d/imapd
[23:54] <histo> !fstab > kiyiko
[23:54] <histo> orsi: google?
[23:55] <sCOTTo> histo: yes but if I can make a special program that opens a direct two way connection to the server I dont have to worry about routing through Firewalls etc...
[23:55] <histo> !info sonata
[23:55] <KenBW2> i followed the instructions here http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/05/15/usb-ubuntu-804-persistent-install-from-linux/ to make a bootable peristent USB install but it's not persistent. Why not?
[23:55] <nickrud> ryknow_, looking for stuff.
[23:55] <histo> KenBW2: mount options on the drive
[23:55] <ryknow_> ok.
[23:55] <nickrud> Jadewolf, were you able to at least uninstall dovecot-imapd ?
[23:55] <KenBW2> histo: care to explain?
[23:55] <kiyiko> thanks
[23:55] <orsi> histo, ok, i just thought this might be something everyone is experiencing since the version in the repo is broken...
[23:55] <martin_> is there a way to check which processor is in my laptop from ubuntu?
[23:56] <zvacet> martin_ : lshw
[23:56] <muffin-stump> zvacet: yes, exactly.  I've only got one CD drive and I will probably need it while the session is running.
[23:56] <Jadewolf> Yea  I fixed it
[23:56] <histo> KenBW2: I believe the usb people might be able to explain it. It probably is going to be when the its booted off of the usb drive it needs to change some sections to writable and save before shutting down.
[23:56] <histo> !usb > KenBW2
[23:56] <Jadewolf> Nickrud: just needed to make a new /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf
[23:56] <zvacet> muffin-stump : I don´t think it is possible but I can be wrong
[23:56] <Jadewolf> I think my server is not allowing 110 port open yet...
[23:56] <nickrud> Jadewolf, that's one way to let it start
[23:57] <NoN|ck> !man
[23:57] <histo> orsi: maybe search the forums. But the people that make the app may have an update on their site.
[23:57] <martin_> zvacet: thx it works
[23:57] <orsi> histo, ok, ill check. thank you
[23:57] <zvacet> martin_ :np
[23:57] <KenBW2> histo: does this involve something in fstab do you reckon?
[23:58] <Jadewolf> nickrud: you know a way to see if something is blocking 110?
[23:58] <nickrud> ryknow_,   dpkg -l libasound2 , are the first two characters on the line you get back ii  ?
[23:58] <muffin-stump> zvacet: it's definitely possible.  I used to do it all the time with Dapper
[23:58] <KenBW2> histo: "8.04 Hardy: Unfortunately, there is a  bug in the versions of casper in Hardy that cause the persistent partition to not be mounted on boot"
[23:58] <histo> KenBW2: I can't remember off the top of my head but I remember having similiar issues.
[23:58] <mysticdarkhack> haha I just solve my own problems
[23:58] <histo> KenBW2: there ya go.
[23:58] <mysticdarkhack> woohoo
[23:58] <mysticdarkhack> lol
[23:58] <martin_> it shows i have indeed a atom in my new eee 901 linux
[23:58] <nickrud> Jadewolf, do you have a firewall running? Are you behind a router?  try telneting in on the same machine
[23:58] <KenBW2> histo: thats useful :P
[23:58] <martin_> great
[23:58] <histo> KenBW2: look on the bug page perhaps there is a work around
[23:58] <Jadewolf> I am on the same machine
[23:58] <muffin-stump> zvacet: back then, there was an option in the CD's boot menu to copy to ram before booting, but not anymore.
[23:58] <mysticdarkhack> but it still crappy
[23:58] <zvacet> muffin-stump : like I said I can be wrong but I don´t know answer to your question
[23:59] <KenBW2> histo: yea im there
[23:59] <KenBW2> wooo new launchpad
[23:59] <ryknow_> I'm sorry, I'm not sure what you mean.
[23:59] <Jadewolf> nickrud: I am on the same machine and I'm using the machine internal IP address
[23:59] <ryknow_> You want me to type  dpkg -l libasound2 into a terminal/
[23:59] <ryknow_> ?
[23:59] <nickrud> Jadewolf, there should be nothing between you and the server if you're pointing at <IP_ADDRESS>
[23:59] <bobertdos> muffin-stump: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BootToRAM; In Fedora, this functionality is actually built-in.
[23:59] <Jadewolf> using its 192.168.x.x ip


[12:47] <mparillo> I think I was able to add This channel is logged. to the topic here, but not to the #kubuntu topic.
[12:49] <RikMills> done
[19:05] <valorie> I see that in the topic mparillo
[20:30] <WrathOfAchilles> The logged note is normally in the entry message, so no need to put it in the topic.
[20:34] <krytarik> "-- PvNotice(ChanServ): Welcome to #kubuntu-devel. This channel is logged. Use of this channel implies acceptance of terms at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/TermsOfService"
[20:35] <RikMills> I'm sure people pay as much notice to that as they do the topic ;)
[20:36] <krytarik> It's actually more noticable on my WeeChat than the topic though..
[20:37] <WrathOfAchilles> RikMills: OK, just figured I'd note.  It's of course up to you. :)
[20:38] <RikMills> 'belt and braces' as they say..........
[21:04] <mparillo> Is there a setting in konvesation that suppresses the entry message? I did not see it in the channel or in the top level (not sure what you call the level where the server messages are shown).
[21:12] <krytarik> Could be you got it an a ChanServ query instead.
[21:14] <valorie> you can direct them there
[21:15] <krytarik> Well, I'm happy anyway WeeChat shows them in the context they are in.. >_>
[21:15] <valorie> :-)
[21:17] <krytarik> And on HexChat you'd usually hunt them across various channels you share with ChanServ.. >_<


[02:45] <arturo> Hello all... I'm a complete noob with Ubuntu studio and i'm having a bit of a problem with it, I was wondering if someone would be kind enough to point me in the right direction...
[02:50] <arturo> basically I installed US, connected my trusty ol Line6 Guitar port ans instantly got sound, ugly distorted faded sound from my guitar... Y cant for the life of me get sound out of any app, cant seem to be able to channel the signal and all i get is this same ugly sound... I'm guessing is something somewhere in the settings but cant figure out where....
[02:51] <arturo> any help would be greatly appreciated... thnks.


[14:20] <davef> It's official. New Years is canceled in Quebec. We now have a government mandated curfew from 10pm to 5am for the next three weeks. I however will not be told when to go home. I'm a 40yr old male and doesn't need anyone telling me when it's time to go to bed.
[14:20] <diddledani> you'll be in bed already?
[15:04] <davef> No. I've decided to put up a deck chair out on the sidewalk, drink in hand and see the new year in. I'm not going to let the government decide when I have to be home.
[16:54] <jlj> I'll be in bed, says the almost 50-year-old man. :-P
[18:08] <zxmpi> leccy blanket on watching babylon 5 like nature intended
[19:22] <zxmpi> https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/3768892/betty-white-dead-golden-girls-actress/
[20:45] <jlj> zxmpi: an inspiration; that life lived. Shame she didn't make that birthday, though.
[21:04] <davef> that's pretty much a final f-you from 2021
[21:05] <daftykins> pretty unknown to me, that one
[21:08] <jlj> Oh, man, Golden Girls was a staple in our household; made meals with frosty parents tolerable.
[21:10] <daftykins> :)
[21:41] <zxmpi> yeah if you haven't watched the joy that is golden girls do yourself a favour and give it a bash. absolutely brilliant
[21:43] <daftykins> it hasn't suffered with time then?
[21:46] <zxmpi> not that i can see
[21:51] <daftykins> probably a generational thing though
[23:51] <penguin42> daftykins: So hmm; Handbrake does a good job of ripping a dvd - but doesn't support the menus
[23:51] <daftykins> i think you ruled me out of that subject :D
[23:52] <daftykins> my personal preference is to dump all the cruft, no menus... trailers, logos etc
[23:52] <penguin42> oh well, Handbrake did that nicely
[23:52]  * penguin42 watched 12 monkeys
[23:53] <daftykins> it's mostly geared toward transcode so not of interest to me, with also applies to standard definition
[23:54] <diddledani> davef: they're onto you https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/cI8JZq4P/image.png
[23:54] <daftykins> heh they'll be crawling the neighbourhoods to find him sat out front
[23:55] <penguin42> daftykins: I was also looking at vlc's ripping stuff which in theory can do menus, but I've not persuaded it to yet
[23:56] <davef> Abuse of our emergency alert system.. https://twitter.com/DavieDavieDave/status/1477065693992525830
[23:58] <penguin42> I admit to not understanding the purpose of curfews for this
[23:59] <davef> This is the second curfew. There's no evidence it worked the first time.
[23:59] <penguin42> it should be illegal however to set off fireworks in the 10 minutes before the new year


[12:10] <kyrofa> cjwatson, I'm trying to get LP building dailies and publish to edge. In such a situation, the snapcraft.yaml holds the link to https://example.com/latest.tar.gz, and the branch will be in LP (with an associated snap setup to publish to edge). I just need to use the LP API to spin up a build
[12:10] <kyrofa> cjwatson, it would run in a daily cron job
[12:11] <kyrofa> cjwatson, how does one typically go about that? I assume it can only be done by a user who owns the snap. Do I just generate a token and use that? Can I protect it at rest in some way?
[12:16] <cjwatson> https://help.launchpad.net/API/launchpadlib basically.  It (regrettably) can't be usefully constrained at this point; I expect eventually we'll support macaroons so that it can only do that one action, but for the time being it would be a full token for that user.
[12:17] <kyrofa> cjwatson, alright, just wanted to check before I went down a bad path-- thanks!
[12:17] <cjwatson> (Or you could hackily push to the branch containing snapcraft.yaml and use LP's auto build handling ...)
[12:17] <kyrofa> cjwatson, meh, then they're SSH keys :P
[12:45] <kyrofa> cjwatson, the only way to login that I've seen is login_with, which opens firefox to get a token. How might I pre-generate a token to put on a headless server?
[12:45] <kyrofa> Rather, how do I provide it to LPlib
[12:53] <kyrofa> Maybe use credentials_file to generate the token initially and then transfer that file to the server in question? Then continue using credentials_file on the server?
[13:04] <kyrofa> Ah ha, that does work
[13:30] <cjwatson> kyrofa: Yeah, that's typically the one
[13:30] <kyrofa> cjwatson, I found Credentials as well. Seems the access is more fine-grained with that one
[13:32] <cjwatson> I think we typically just use login_with and rely on python-keyring to do the storage.
[13:33] <cjwatson> And when login_with prompts you for authentication, you copy the URL and paste it into your desktop browser.
[13:33] <cjwatson> Ignoring the fact that it tries to pop up a browser on the server.
[13:43] <clivejo> can a comment be deleted from a bug report?
[13:44] <sarnold> there's often a 'hide' button users can hit
[13:44] <sarnold> I've filed launchpad 'answers' questions before when asking for spam comments to be deleted
[13:44] <cjwatson> Yep.  The person who wrote the comment or Launchpad staff can hide comments.
[13:44] <clivejo> I posted to the wrong bug by mistake
[13:44] <cjwatson> You can hide that yourself, then.
[13:45] <clivejo> but cant delete?
[13:45] <cjwatson> You might need to reload the bug page, but you should see a "Hide" link below the comment.
[13:45] <cjwatson> No.
[13:45] <clivejo> ah yes, I see it
[13:45] <cjwatson> "Hide" means that most people can't see it.
[13:45] <clivejo> I thought that was just to hide long comments!
[13:45] <cjwatson> Only if you wanted to stop anyone else seeing them at all ...
[13:46] <clivejo> ah
[13:46] <clivejo> good to know!
[15:06] <rbasak> How should I tackle bug 1523051? I don't see anything I can edit - does it need to be passed to Launchpad admins to fix?

[15:15] <cjwatson> rbasak: turn it into a question and move it to Launchpad
[15:15] <cjwatson> (can't deal right now)
[15:19] <rbasak> Will do, thanks.
[18:56] <sforshee> hi - one of the kernel team scripts fetches https://git.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel/+git/kteam-tools/plain/ktl/kernel-series-info.yaml
[18:56] <sforshee> and that started failing for me sometime today with http code 500. http access to the repository overall seems to be broken, though git access still works.
[19:00] <acheronuk> I've been getting OOPS- messages browsing the kubuntu git repos over http since late afternoon as well
[19:12] <apw> sforshee, that looks to be oopsing:   TypeError: translatePath() takes at most 4 arguments (5 given)
[20:49] <wgrant> apw, sforshee, acheronuk: Fix is on the way.
[20:51] <apw> wgrant, hey thanks
[21:09] <wgrant> Should all be happy now. Let me know if something else looks awry.
[23:47] <mpontillo> wgrant: hey, I'm seeing a weird issue with https://code.launchpad.net/~mpontillo/maas/discovery-view-rdns--bug-1633822--part3/+merge/308980 -- it looks like it's not properly considering the prerequisite branch. the diff should only contain src/maasserver/dbviews.py and src/maasserver/models/tests/test_discovery.py
[23:49] <mpontillo> for what it's worth, --part2 looks happy. maybe because it's has a prereq that has a prereq?
