[12:00] <earHertz> dli: I the future, hiw do I figure that out for myself?
[12:00] <kingruedi> the script failed for me to start :/
[12:01] <mjr> `underOATH, the mobility radeons that are supported are supported through the same drivers as the desktop variants; what's your model?
[12:01] <Lars_G> alex_: If it's a JAR you don't need to "install" it. if it's a program from the commandline try to run: "java -jar <filename.jar>"
[12:01] <`underOATH> mjr: ATI Mobility Radeon 9000 IGP
[12:01] <Lars_G> alex_: You can also ask more in ##java but you'll possibly be treated like dirt, so be ready for it.
[12:01] <gdb> A jar file should come with a script to provide the correct arguments to the interpreter, to be honest.  But if there isn't one, then what Lars_G suggested should work.
[12:02] <finalbeta> how do I stop X? need to go to a shell, reload a driver, and then start x
[12:02] <nubsauce> is there a way i can manually add a screen resolution if i know both my monitor and gpu support it?
[12:02] <Jowi> VieLGuS-KuTaS: lame is used to create compressed autio files. mp3 is one of its uses.
[12:02] <Lars_G> gdb: That's correct. specially if it depends on included jars in it's classpath but bleh
[12:02] <andi5> earHertz: in case you really want to compile a kernel (i guess you will not start developing with libncurses ;-)), try kernel-package (it suggests libncurses5-dev)
[12:02] <dibblego> gdb, it does - you put a Main-Class manifest entry, then -jar is implied
[12:02] <liquiem> finalbeta, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[12:02] <Lars_G> "should" is not always "will"
[12:02] <finalbeta> thnx
[12:02] <dli> earHertz, packages.ubuntu.com , or apt-cache , apt-file
[12:02] <dibblego> -jar ignores the classpath (java.class.path system property)
[12:02] <mjr> `underOATH, that should work pretty much out of the box afaik
[12:02] <gdb> finalbeta: ALT-F1 to get to a text login, then run $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop -- do your work, and then $ sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[12:02] <alex_> but there comes the same window
[12:02] <`underOATH> Lars_G: thats why i really like cool channels like this where everyone is cool and nice to eachother so we all get the best out of the software. ubuntu has a really nice community of users
[12:02] <Jowi> VieLGuS-KuTaS: lame + liblame0 should be enough
[12:02] <Lars_G> dibblego: Doh true I forgot classpath is ignored with -jar
[12:02] <fiveiron> anyone have a working logitech quickcam express?
[12:02] <earHertz> andi5: I'm trying rto compile the ipodlinux sources, actually ;)
[12:03] <fiveiron> i can't seem to get the qc-usb driver working
[12:03] <Lars_G> `underOATH: Never try to join #OpenBSD then, you'll regret it.
[12:03] <mjr> `underOATH, though I'm not completely sure if the Ubuntu X.org/kernel release support the IGP aspect of it (support exists, I'm just not sure in which versions)
[12:03] <eggo> hey can someone point me to a step by step for compiling a kernel?  i keep getting errors and all i have done is download the source for my current kernel and use my existing config .... but still get errors :(
[12:03] <gdb> `underOATH: I think a lot of that has to do with people being attracted to the philosophy behind the name of the distribution.  I have to say that compared to other Linux channels, this one is by far the friendliest.
[12:03] <Lars_G> dibblego: But there are ways, in which java code is run via a script without -jar and with a complex classpath
[12:03] <Jowi> VieLGuS-KuTaS: if you use gstreamer there is a lame plugin for it as well.
[12:03] <Lars_G> dibblego: But you should know that, don't you?
[12:03] <dibblego> Lars_G, sure
[12:03] <alex_> blue j wants to know to which directory it have to install
[12:03] <Lars_G> Jowi: That's lame
[12:03] <liquiem> eggo, what errors?
[12:03] <`underOATH> yeah, like #linux on gamesurge. everyone is mean
[12:03] <mjr> `underOATH, anyway, I have a non-IGP mobility 9000 and it works just dandy
[12:03] <Jowi> Lars_G: yes it is :)
[12:04] <dibblego> Lars_G, you can also enter a classpath executed with -jar by using a Class-Path manifest entry
[12:04] <alexicon> kubuntu is great!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[12:04] <earHertz> dli: thansk
[12:04] <eggo> liquiem : "error in source file"
[12:04] <gdb> `underOATH: I don't get that.  People that want Linux to "take over the world" doing everything they can to ensure that no one wants to run it. :-P
[12:04] <foxiness> Jowi, thanks for your info it help man :)
[12:04] <nivanson> Hi, I am having some trouble with my ATI driver. No matter how I configure X (I tried all tutorials) I still end up getting Mesa according to fglrxinfo. Did anyone have this problem? (using latest dapper)
[12:04] <`underOATH> mjr: did you have to install the drivers from the ati website
[12:04] <Lars_G> dibblego: Wich is how I'd preffer to do it myself.
[12:04] <dibblego> Lars_G, I prefer to write my own class loader - it is much cleaner
[12:04] <eggo> when in drivers/usb/net/zd1211/zdusb.c
[12:04] <VieLGuS-KuTaS> Jowi: do u know what repo has the lame plugins?
[12:04] <Jowi> foxiness: no probs. glad i could help
[12:04] <alex_> can anybody help me
[12:04] <liquiem> eggo, after what command? vanilla source or apt-based sources?
[12:04] <VieLGuS-KuTaS> Jowi: or lame libs
[12:04] <mjr> `underOATH, no, I've not tried the proprietary drivers. The free DRI supports 3d acceleration on these chipsets.
[12:04] <Jowi> VieLGuS-KuTaS: which version of ubuntu are you using=
[12:04] <gdb> VieLGuS-KuTaS: I'd guess that Multiverse does, if not Universe.
[12:05] <kingruedi> when i start automatix the script starts and shuts down without any message
[12:05] <eggo> well i got the source via apt-get
[12:05] <Cornellius> alex+: Don't ask, just tell your problem.
[12:05] <Lars_G> dibblego: Though too many programmers preffer to just drop the main jar on the classpath in a script and call the main class directly. which to me is "dirty"
[12:05] <Jowi> !info liblame0

[12:06] <`underOATH> yes Lars_G
[12:06] <fiveiron> !quickcam
[12:06] <ubotu> I know nothing about quickcam
[12:06] <alex_> in which directory i have to install blue j
[12:06] <alex_> ?
[12:06] <VieLGuS-KuTaS> Jowi: i have all the repos enabled that come default , none has them
[12:06] <Cornellius> kingruedi: Automatix uses ForceYes options that can be dangerous for your system.
[12:06] <kingruedi> oh
[12:06] <Jowi> VieLGuS-KuTaS: yeah, you need universe and multiverse repos
[12:06] <gdb> alex_: I think the software is leaving that up to you. ;-) I prefer to install large software installations in /opt, myself.
[12:06] <Lars_G> `underOATH: Get used to it, wathever you do you'll get poor performance, but I'm sure you're using XOrg's drivers so there IS a lot of performance to be gained by switching to the binary-only ATI drivers.
[12:06] <kingruedi> anyway it looks pretty bad
[12:06] <Jowi> !tell VieLGuS-KuTaS about universe
[12:06] <kingruedi> i'll try easyubuntu
[12:07] <Cornellius> Blue J ?
[12:07] <Lars_G> `underOATH: Saddly I have to go now. Aaaaand, I haven't touched an ATI not I will with a pole right now. so I leave you to your luck, I'm sure someone here or in the forums should be able o help with that
[12:07] <meshyf> Does anybody have a link to the latest xpad drivers?
[12:07] <gdb> kingruedi: I don't think you'll be disappointed.  They have a lot of good information on that site and EasyUbuntu makes installing multimedia, java, etc, a real snap.
[12:07] <Dial_tone> Anyone use something other than totem as default video/dvd player?
[12:07] <Jowi> !tell VieLGuS-KuTaS about repos
[12:07] <`underOATH> alright i'll just try the drivers from the website and see how that works for me
[12:07] <lophyte> Dial_tone: I use mplayer
[12:07] <nivanson> Dial_tone: Mplayer
[12:07] <Lars_G> dibblego: I know where I know you now, we've met in ##java haven't we?
[12:07] <goonies> someone plz help me, this is driving me nuts, im trying to use compiz and xgl, but everytime i run gnome-window-decorator it restarts x, i previously made it run b4 without a problem, now all the sudden it just keeps restarting my x when i try it
[12:08] <gdb> Call me crazy, I actually like totem.
[12:08] <lophyte> gdb: you're crazy! :P
[12:08] <eobanb> goonies, that would be a question for #ubuntu-xgl
[12:08] <gdb> lophyte: hehehe
[12:08] <Dial_tone> my volume is too for for some reason
[12:08] <andi5> can you plug in a keyboard into a easyubuntu installation? or does it have to be voice controlled, spoken out in easy words.... apps: webbrowser showing your portal all the time?
[12:08] <kcbanner> Hi, I logged on to another computer on my network with xdmcp...my wireless cut out so I got disconnected. When I try to reconnect it says "User already logged on" and when I log it all the programs I had open are closed, and I think that my old session is still running somwhere. How do I reconnect to it?
[12:08] <Lars_G> `underOATH: Advice. this can be a CONSUMING process. before you begin, make a backup of your XOrg config file, so if you become too flustered you can return it to normal to be able to enter X11 and browse for help files
[12:08] <kingruedi> ok, i think i don't need it anyway. I basicly done everything. Except for DMA. But I thougt newer kernels activate dma automatically
[12:08] <gdb> andi5: eh?
[12:08] <Lars_G> gdb: Crazy
[12:09] <looksaus> I just tried to burn the ppc dapper iso under dapper
[12:09] <gdb> lol
[12:09] <looksaus> it complains about being 702 Mb , too big to fit onto a 700 Mb CD
[12:09] <mjr> `underOATH, probably 3d is not properly initialized in that case with the X.org drivers, does glxinfo|grep -i direct say what about rendering?
[12:09] <Lars_G> gdb: Personally I use xmms for radio streams, mplayer and xine for videos, and AmaroK for my music collection
[12:09] <goonies> =\
[12:09] <userundefine> looksaus, enable overburn.   702 is managable
[12:10] <`underOATH> "aticonfig: error while loading shared libraries: libfglrx_pp.sp.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[12:10] <looksaus> userundefine, where do I do that?
[12:10] <kcbanner> Hi, I logged on to another computer on my network with xdmcp...my wireless cut out so I got disconnected. When I try to reconnect it says "User already logged on" and when I log it all the programs I had open are closed, and I think that my old session is still running somwhere. How do I reconnect to it?
[12:10] <andrew_> could someone point to some info on setting up wine in (k)ubuntu s.t. installed applications are available for all users?  Google isn't very helpful for me.
[12:10] <`underOATH> andrew_: #wine
[12:10] <userundefine> looksaus, I'm not sure, I didn't get your backstory.  what program are you using?
[12:10] <liquiem> Lars_G, bmpx for audio, mplayer for video :)
[12:10] <`underOATH> nvm
[12:10] <`underOATH> i forgot the wine channel
[12:10] <gdb> Lars_G: Right, and I can absolutely see the desire for that, using a more "tuned for it" application for each job.  I prefer to have a single application that does what I want.  And all I do is listen to music and watch DVDs and movie files.  For streaming Internet raido, I just use Firefox. ;-)
[12:10] <andrew_> `underOATH: ok, thanks.  nothing ubuntu specific, then.
[12:10] <foxiness> andrew_, wine on wiki.ubuntu.com
[12:10] <Lars_G> liquiem: Have you tested xmms2? one of these days, i ought to
[12:10] <looksaus> userundefine, the builtin dapper cd writer
[12:10] <andi5> liquiem: bmpx self-compiled?
[12:11] <mjr> `underOATH, well, that's fglrx stuff then, dunno about that
[12:11] <looksaus> nautilus-cd-burner
[12:11] <Cornellius> Lars_G: XMMS2 ?
[12:11] <userundefine> looksaus, nautilus or gnomebaker?
[12:11] <gdb> Lars_G: I did really like xmms back when I was using it, though.  Maybe I'll install it again.
[12:11] <`underOATH> mjr: i guess i have to find that file and CD into that directory first
[12:11] <userundefine> looksaus, ah
[12:11] <Cornellius> liquiem: I like Rhythmbox
[12:11] <Lars_G> gdb: The only place I do that in is IM, I can't stand one-client-per-protocol, so I use Kopete or similarily multiprotocol clients
[12:11] <liquiem> Lars_G, nope, just bmpx
[12:11] <Lars_G> Cornellius: Early alpha next version of xmms
[12:11] <lophyte> I use rhythmbox for music, mplayer for video
[12:11] <Lars_G> Cornellius: Completely rewriten, afaik
[12:11] <liquiem> andi5, yes, on gentoo compiled and on ubuntu the repo
[12:11] <Cornellius> liquiem: Beep Media Player ?
[12:11] <alex_> blue j cant write his files on the directory opt
[12:11] <gdb> Aye, gaim here.
[12:11] <alex_> can i use chmod?
[12:12] <andi5> gdb: aye, any idea how long it will take to get gaim 2.0 out? *waiting desparately* ;-)
[12:12] <userundefine> looksaus, good question, I greatly doubt it supports it.  Gnomebaker probably does, let me see...
[12:12] <liquiem> Cornellius, yep, a fork of it
[12:12] <Lars_G> gdb: Aaaand, I've ripped most of my music, I have nearly 300Gb of music. So using a player for it, would be like commiting suicide.
[12:12] <gdb> andi5:  lol no idea, I just use what came with Ubuntu. ;-)
[12:12] <looksaus> userundefine, it's not that I'm unfamiliar with ubuntu
[12:12] <peibol> hey
[12:12] <gdb> andi5: for AIM, google talk, MSN, and Yahoo!
[12:12] <Lars_G> gdb: I need a tool that lets me organize, search and maintain my collection, like amarok, rythmbox or juk
[12:12] <peibol> i need help with "evolution"
[12:12] <looksaus> I can really find it out myself
[12:12] <peibol> can someone helps me?
[12:13] <andi5> peibol: what is up?
[12:13] <dibblego> Lars_G, can xmms play a m4a file?
[12:13] <looksaus> but it's nice to see this channel is still so very helpful
[12:13] <Lars_G> gdb: But, I hate stuff that "makes" me add stuff to my collection for a single listen.
[12:13] <peibol> sorry by my english(im spanish)
[12:13] <goonies> how can there not be one reference to gnome-window-decorator on the forums
[12:13] <Lars_G> dibblego: It depends on the installed files. But basically yes it can
[12:13] <Lars_G> peibol: There's afaik an #ubuntu-es
[12:13] <dibblego> Lars_G, does that mean I need a plugin?
[12:13] <liquiem> goonies, try g-w-d :) or tell us your problem
[12:13] <Cornellius> liquiem: Differences between BMP and BMPX are... ?
[12:13] <alex_> how to set the permission for the directory /opt
[12:13] <gdb> Lars_G: Well, I don't have 300GB of music, but I have ripped all my stuff in iTunes.  I use that to play music on my PC and just double click files on my server/workstation thing here.  I'd like an iTunes-like application to play that on Linux but I'm not sure if it will "prepare" the music folder in a way that will break iTunes.
[12:13] <alex_> ??
[12:13] <peibol> when i try to insert an event in evolution it says me "yoy cant write"
[12:14] <Lars_G> dibblego:
[12:14] <Jowi> dibblego: m4a = .mp4
[12:14] <Lars_G> dibblego: Yup
[12:14] <peibol> i know the existence of this channel but they are talking about phylosophy xD
[12:14] <dibblego> Lars_G ?
[12:14] <gumpish> anyone know anything about yaboot? (The PPC bootloader)
[12:14] <liquiem> Cornellius, gstreamer-based, all fancy stuff like dbus, libnotify and so on
[12:14] <goonies> liquiem, im trying to use compiz and xgl, but everytime i run gnome-window-decorator it restarts x, i previously made it run b4 without a problem, now all the sudden it just keeps restarting my x when i try it
[12:14] <dibblego> which plugin?
[12:14] <gdb> Yes, I hate that "add to library just to hear once" thing, too.  If it's in the library, it's because I want to hear it again.  If I'm just clicking a file to play, it means I dunno if I wanna hear it again. ;-)
[12:14] <Cornellius> liquiem: Ooohh
[12:14] <liquiem> Cornellius, http://bmpx.beep-media-player.org/site/BMPx_Homepage
[12:14] <looksaus> userundefine, I might have bumped into somewhat of a bug here though
[12:14] <userundefine> looksaus, Yeah, gnomebaker is pretty weak, I don't see it there.  You can do it from CLI apparently but I haven't done it before.
[12:14] <Jowi> dibblego: yes, you needa plugin. what application are you using? xmms-mp4 for xmms, bmp-mp4 for bmp
[12:14] <alex_> how to set the permission for the directory /opt
[12:14] <goonies> i cant even get an error msg
[12:15] <andi5> peibol: are you trying to create a birthday?
[12:15] <dibblego> Jowi, ok thanks
[12:15] <Lars_G> dibblego: xmms-mp4
[12:15] <goonies> since it just restarts x
[12:15] <Cornellius> liquiem: Thanks

[12:17] <mwe> Alethes: sudo chmod
[12:17] <kaning> anyone knows if openoffice has been updated in Dapper
[12:17] <gdb> alex_: The permissions there should be correct.  Are you trying to install something there as a non-root user?
[12:17] <mwe> alex_: ^^
[12:17] <peibol> in private.. my english is the wost xD
[12:17] <userundefine> kaning,  updated to what
[12:17] <dibblego> kaning, it is version 2.0.2
[12:17] <mwe> alex_:  sudo chmod
[12:17] <dribble> liquiem, see, that's what happens when linux is left behind..i dind't even know there WAS a flash nine ;)
[12:17] <Dial_tone> man, my cd/dvd volume is low but system sounds are way too loud
[12:18] <kaning> i know 2.0.3 has been released
[12:18] <alex_> sudo chmod <directory>
[12:18] <alex_> ?
[12:18] <kaning> check on their website
[12:18] <gdb> kaning: It's 2.0.2. I don't know what version you're looking for, but that's what's in Dapper.

[12:18] <peibol> yes
[12:18] <hobx> Solution?
[12:18] <liquiem> dribble, thats the biggest story for now for linux and flash. win/mac got v9, linux still v7
[12:18] <gdb> alex_: You do not want mode 777 on /opt
[12:19] <andi5> try your text editor on it... can you edit it?
[12:19] <peibol> i have it and i have "all users" permision
[12:19] <eobanb> you dont want 777 on anything

When I try to reconnect it says "User already logged on" and when I log it all the programs I had open are closed, and I think that my old session is still running somwhere. How do I reconnect to it?
[12:19] <gdb> alex_: You should have no reason to change the permissions on /opt from the default that's installed with the system.
[12:19] <ShadowLurker> Matrikz
[12:19] <gdb> alex_: So owner root, group root, permission 755.
[12:19] <ShadowLurker> u here?
[12:19] <andi5> peibol: did you change anything?
[12:20] <userundefine> revilot, I like F-Spot, but you can use Picasa if you are familiar with it.  It has a Linux version now

[12:21] <liquiem> shadow`, yes, write down i use google on paper sheets and try asking your question directly
[12:21] <andi5> peibol: but not from evolution, right? i mean: when did you install ubuntu? long ago? maybe you want to (*warning*) delete your ~/.evolution and try again (*warning*)... this will delete your email of course :)
[12:22] <lophyte> ShadowLurker: take a look at those links that ubotu spat out
[12:22] <andi5> peibol: try to avoid this "solution"
[12:22] <stefg> !restricted >shadowlurker

[12:22] <peibol> but never try the calendar... im going to try :)
[12:22] <pvd> hmm, I Messed up my grub configuration.  I get a grub error 15. I tried to load the old ubuntu breezy cd and change up the partitions and set the root partition again, but it keeps saying my target file system is not clean so it wont install. I am using an other computer right now. But I have the other computer that is messed up right next to me.
[12:22] <kcbanner> HOW do I disconnect a connected user!
[12:22] <Mugginns> question: i seem to have done something to lose my ability to surf computers in my windows workgroup. I used to be able to do it fine. what should i check ?
[12:22] <`underOATH> "Generating package: Ubuntu/6.06 ./packages/Ubuntu/ati-packager.sh: line 55: dpkg-architecture: command not found Error: unsupported architexture: Removing temporary directory: fglrx-install"
[12:22] <userundefine> revilot, good question, I never noticed that.  That's something that should definitely be included
[12:23] <myte> whats the best player for playing regular dvd's (encrypted) ... and do i need to install something extra to handle the decryption ??
[12:23] <goonies> no luck
[12:23] <andi5> peibol: sorry, what is "veces"?
[12:23] <kingruedi> i've installed flashplugin-nonfree. Now I can hear the sounds of the clips at video.google.com. But I can't see them (or the controls). The same with other flash plugins
[12:23] <kcbanner> HOW do I disconnect a connected user!

[12:23] <revilot> userundefine: have you tried gphoto2?
[12:23] <liquiem> pvd, what? you changed the partitions? or what exactly do you changed?
[12:24] <myte> can i install all that with apt-get ?
[12:24] <myte> or got to do it from source ?
[12:24] <kcbanner> Seveas, yes but how
[12:24] <dibblego> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=186792
[12:24] <peibol> i dont know the exactly word but "veces" is an spanish word that try to say..."ocasions"
[12:24] <userundefine> revilot, hadn't heard of it until now.
[12:24] <pvd> myte, you can do it with apt-get or synaptic
[12:24] <peibol> "trys"
[12:24] <Seveas> kcbanner, find his terminal with ps f -e and kill it with kill -9 pid_of_his_terminal
[12:25] <kcbanner> Seveas, thanks
[12:25] <revilot> userundefine: do you shoot in raw or jpg
[12:25] <kcbanner> Seveas, it was an xdmcp session...does that matter
[12:25] <peibol> andi5, i cant insert an event whit your "solution"

[12:25] <andi5> peibol: so you say you cannot delete ~/.evolution? .... btw do you mean three times? ;-)
[12:25] <pvd> myte while your at it add the cipherphunk and seveas respositories to your sources.list
[12:25] <userundefine> revilot, tiff, space permitting
[12:25] <Seveas> then kill his session
[12:25] <peibol> eeer you dont understand me
[12:25] <userundefine> revilot, maybe this is old, but gphoto2 doesn't look that feature-full : http://www.gphoto.org/doc/manual/screenshots/gtkam/file.png
[12:26] <andi5> peibol: i am sorry about that :(
[12:26] <revilot> userundefine: ya i didnt think so either but hadnt tried it yet
[12:26] <revilot> userundefine: f-spot is ok minus a few things
[12:26] <userundefine> revilot, I agree, it could use some more features
[12:26] <tach00> hello, i need some help with the package manager
[12:26] <peibol> i were trying to delete files and "reinstall" to see if i can "only copy the folder and write on"
[12:26] <nivanson> Do anybody here have fglrx version 8.24.8 installed? The newest one (8.25.18) is broken with my r250 card. I need someone to send me the file: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 from 8.24.8 (x86, dapper drake)

[12:28] <ShadowLurker> guyz, how do i get gstreamer plugins?
[12:28] <lophyte> ShadowLurker: system->administration->synaptic

[12:28] <liquiem> ShadowLurker, apt-cache search gstreamer-
[12:28] <revilot> ShadowLurker: download easy ubuntu
[12:28] <ShadowLurker> *tries*
[12:28] <userundefine> revilot, ah yes, I tried digikam but it had fewer features than f-spot and was kde-based
[12:29] <an0malist> My hard drive consists of 1 Primay partition, then one Extended partition which includes my swap.  how can I shrink down my primary a few gigs, to create another primary to install another OS?
[12:29] <revilot> userundefine: i really wish there was an open source raw editor, aside from uf-raw
[12:29] <ShadowLurker> thanks about Easy Ubuntu
[12:29] <ShadowLurker> i like that program
[12:29] <goonies> i i want to use xfce, do i have to install xubuntu
[12:29] <goonies> if*
[12:29] <mwe> an0malist: what file system is it?
[12:29] <Seveas> goonies, not per se
[12:30] <goonies> se?
[12:30] <an0malist> mwe: ext3
[12:30] <mwe> an0malist: gparted then
[12:30] <andi5> an0malist: others will tell you probably, but what about shrinking the extended partition if it is not full of logical partitions?
[12:30] <mwe> an0malist: or just parted
[12:30] <an0malist> mwe: I try that, but the resize option isn't available
[12:30] <goonies> i want to run it alongside gnome
[12:30] <moreati> an0malist: I believe gparted can resize partitions
[12:30] <mwe> an0malist: you can't if it's mounted
[12:30] <mwe> an0malist: you need to boot a live cd to do it
[12:30] <liquiem> moreati, not every fs-type
[12:30] <an0malist> hmm.. well its my main hard drive
[12:30] <goonies> Seveas, whats se stand for
[12:30] <an0malist> ahhh
[12:30] <nivanson> Do anybody here have fglrx version 8.24.8 installed? The newest one (8.25.18) is broken with my r250 card. I need someone to send me the file: /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 from 8.24.8 (x86, dapper drake). Please PM me.

[12:31] <k3nobi> hi
[12:31] <Seveas> nivanson, you could try 8.26.something
[12:31] <k3nobi> i'm new to ubuntu how do I install firefox plugins like flash?
[12:31] <nivanson> Seveas: when did they get released? i can only find 25.
[12:32] <nivanson> k3nobi: read the manual at help.ubuntu.com >> community
[12:32] <Seveas> nivanson, few days ago by ati, they won't land in dapper officially but they are available from my repo (install ubuntu-fglrx-your_version)
[12:32] <dagrump_> hi all, i could use some help with recovery console, i broke x
[12:32] <^thehatsrule^> nivanson: afaik.. i thought the r2xx support was somewhat broken in 8.25/26
[12:33] <lophyte> I wish openoffice draw had some nice clipart
[12:33] <^thehatsrule^> cant remember which one exactly
[12:33] <userundefine> revilot, you may want to check out gimp-dcraw and gimp-ufraw packages.  apparently they allow for raw functioanlity in gimp
[12:33] <andi5> dagrump_: well, actually, this "recovery console" is at least 6 of them with a lot of power :)
[12:33] <nivanson> Seveas: May I have the adress to your rep? :) Thanks
[12:34] <Seveas> !seveas > nivanson
[12:34] <andi5> dagrump_: so maybe you booted into a single environment, i dont know.... what is up? :)
[12:34] <nivanson> Seveas: Thanks alot :)
[12:34] <gumpish> hmmm, my software updates seems to be stalling out at "setting up capplets-data". The "task bar" button is fading in and out...
[12:34] <lophyte> anyone know where one can get clipart for OOo draw?
[12:34] <gumpish> ah there it goes
[12:35] <userundefine> lophyte, try http://www.openclipart.org/
[12:35] <dagrump_> andi5: I need to edit xorg.conf & im not sure how to get from terminal
[12:35] <roostishaw> what does the extention .o mean?
[12:36] <userundefine> dagrump_, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:36] <eobanb> dagrump_, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:36] <andi5> userundefine: in console?
[12:36] <liquiem> andi5, terminal :)
[12:36] <userundefine> andi5, yes ^
[12:36] <dagrump_> thanks ill try it
[12:36] <eobanb> userundefine, clearly gedit is not going to work in a terminal, especially not if x is not running :)
[12:36] <liquiem> he doesnt say if he's in X or not
[12:36] <andi5> i thought console, not terminal....
[12:36] <tach00> can soeone please tell me how to fix a package error because i tried everything i know and stil get it every time i try to download somethng and istall it
[12:37] <andi5> he has broken X.... did not he? *wonder*
[12:37] <jrattner1> k
[12:37] <eobanb> tach00, well what is the error
[12:37] <userundefine> andi5, eobanb, I don't know, he said 'terminal', ie gui
[12:37] <liquiem> andi5, dont know :)
[12:37] <tach00> hang on ill paste it for you
[12:37] <roostishaw> anyone,  what does the extention .o mean?
[12:37] <eobanb> tach00, if it's long, use pastebin please.
[12:37] <andi5> userundefine: hehe.... you know what terminal means, i do too, but not everyone :)
[12:38] <tach00> what is pastebin? sorry new hre
[12:38] <userundefine> andi5, should've just said sudo vim ;)
[12:38] <eobanb> userundefine, if he said terminal, how would that indicate the gui
[12:39] <userundefine> eobanb, heh, nevermind
[12:39] <andi5> userundefine: i was just wondering what ubuntu suggests..... i have never liked vim.... s/never liked/always hated/g
[12:39] <liquiem> terminal implies X, console is just that, just ascii :)
[12:39] <andi5> ascii?
[12:39] <eobanb> terminal in no way implies X.
[12:39] <liquiem> textmode
[12:39] <andi5> eobanb: see screen, right? :)
[12:39] <userundefine> andi5, I think they suggest nano from CLI and gedit from gui.
[12:39] <gumpish> how about Terminal with a capital T?
[12:40] <tach00> what is pastebin and how do i use it
[12:40] <eobanb> !pastebin
[12:40] <bbrazil> !pastebin
[12:40] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[12:40] <andi5> userundefine: thanks for clearing up

[12:41] <dsas> could someone explain to me how to add http://people.ubuntu.com/~jdub/edgy/ to my sources.list? I know that I need to add another deb line, but how do I find out the section name?
[12:41] <eobanb> dsas, discuss edgy in #ubuntu+1
[12:41] <dsas> eobanb: It's not actually an edgy repository
[12:41] <andi5> dsas: see system->administration->package management, you can add manual deb lines there
[12:42] <cyphase> is the next version of ubuntu going to have avahi support in cups?
[12:42] <dsas> andi5: I still need to know the section name to do that.
[12:42] <andi5> dsas: sorry! i mean system->administration->software properties (do not know english name)
[12:42] <tach00> forgive me, what do i do, put your name in pastbin and send?
[12:42] <eobanb> tach00, you paste the link in here to the pastebin page you generated
[12:42] <pump> i need help with a pinnacle pctv stereo
[12:42] <kingruedi> argl! I deinstalled the flash plugin. Used easyubuntu to install it again. But still I can only hear but not see plugins in firefox
[12:43] <tach00> ok thank you, sorry to be a newbe but i really like ubuntu, if i can get it going lol
[12:43] <andi5> tach00: did you restart firefox?
[12:43] <eobanb> andi5, what does his problem have to do with firefox
[12:43] <andi5> kingruedi: did you restart firefox? sorry eobanb and tach00
[12:43] <kingruedi> yes
[12:44] <tach00> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16887
[12:44] <tach00> like this
[12:44] <eobanb> tach00, yes
[12:44] <tach00> than you for putting up with me
[12:44] <ciaron> any know why i get an error "no screens found" when trying to load a xgl session?
[12:44] <tach00> im getting three
[12:44] <tach00> there
[12:45] <andi5> kingruedi: what do you mean by "hear plugins"? does the page "about:plugins" show flash?
[12:45] <dli> ciaron, /j #ubuntu-xgl
[12:45] <eobanb> ciaron, that would be a question for #ubuntu-xgl
[12:45] <ciaron> ah ok, ta
[12:45] <eobanb> tach00, what is it that you're trying to install
[12:46] <monomaniacpat> What icon themes change the firefox logo?
[12:46] <tach00> well i a just trying to updt my system and download some apps from repositories and i guess something was  wrongwith kcemirror, NOW it wont let me do anything
[12:46] <eobanb> monomaniacpat, a bunch of them?
[12:46] <lancer285> can anyone tell me how to get my USB keyboard to control grub? I am not able to make any seleciotns besides the default because Ican't move the cursor
[12:47] <kingruedi> andi5: i think i found the problem. I made mv .mozilla mozilla-bu and started ff again. Suddenly it worked
[12:47] <kingruedi> strange
[12:47] <monomaniacpat> I used to have a specific one and have forgotten which it was ...
[12:47] <monomaniacpat> You can see it hidden behind a mouse symbol on the humility theme
[12:47] <andi5> kingruedi: strange, indeed.... you can test your old profile again just as easy, of course :) .... but never change a running system ;-)
[12:47] <PacketScan> This is weird i can not find a background image i like for my ubuntu desktop than the plain brown it came with.
[12:48] <eobanb> PacketScan, http://gnome-look.org
[12:48] <PacketScan> All my windows are opaque tho so it's trippy.
[12:48] <saxin> how can I upgrade linux-image-386 and linux-restricted-modules-386? I keep getting "The following packages have been kept back"
[12:48] <PacketScan> eobanb, ah good look.
[12:48] <gnomefreak> saxin: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:48] <andi5> actually, i do not know about you... but i stick with plain desktop colors,.... typically a light gray (bit darker than the gnome panels)
[12:48] <lancer285> PacketScan: how do you get your windeows transparet?
[12:49] <monomaniacpat> eobanb: it's the blue and white globe centred on africa
[12:49] <saxin> gnomefreak, thanks, I will give it a try
[12:49] <gnomefreak> yw
[12:49] <lancer285> can anyone tell me how to make my usb keyboard work with grub?
[12:49] <kingruedi> andi5: it is strange. Because the same profile with flash support worked fine until i reinstalled ubuntu
[12:49] <PacketScan> lancer285, most of the apps i'm using support it.
[12:49] <eobanb> tach00, what does apt-get update report
[12:49] <PacketScan> xchat, gnome terminal , etc.
[12:49] <andi5> lancer285: stupid question: can you enter the bios with your usb keyboard?
[12:49] <lancer285> yes,
[12:49] <lancer285> andi5: yes
[12:50] <lancer285> PacketScan: so it's not a theme or anything?
[12:50] <PacketScan> nar
[12:51] <tach00> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16888
[12:51] <lancer285> andi5: I can press delete to get into the bios, but as soon as it gets past that point, I can't use my keyboard
[12:51] <tach00> it just says its getting the updates
[12:51] <andi5> lancer285: well, i have usb keyboard too, but have always used it with a usb->ps adaptor..... because my keyboard never send all codes in usb... but maybe we find a solution
[12:51] <lancer285> andi5: I will see if I have a usb to ps2 adapter.
[12:51] <dagrump_> eobanb: that got me fixed thanks
[12:52] <tach00> tried #apt-get install -f, and #touch --help
[12:52] <andi5> lancer285: but look into your bios, search for a usb keyboard check somewhere
[12:52] <lancer285> andi5: I looked. but I will double check.
[12:53] <andi5> lancer285: maybe "legacy usb"?
[12:54] <tach00> i know it has something to do with the package kcemirror, i just dont know how to fix the error
[12:54] <PacketScan> andi5, sounds promising
[12:54] <lancer285> andi5:  okay, I will check that out! thankso
[12:54] <wastrel> flash is causing firefox to crash in dapper- any way to fix?
[12:55] <dapatrick> Quick question: how can I forge apt-get (or some similar util) to allow to to install libapache2-mod-php4 when libapache2-mod-php5 is already installed?
[12:55] <dapatrick> wastrel: I'm having the same problem but inconsistently.  Not on very flash application.
[12:55] <Seveas> dapatrick, those aren't mutually exclusive...
[12:56] <dapatrick> Yes, I know.
[12:56] <wastrel> dapatrick:  exactly
[12:56] <andi5> dapatrick: simple answer: do not do it
[12:56] <tach00> is there some #apt-get command to remove that package from the list so the system will move past it
[12:57] <dapatrick> Seveas: apt-get wants to remove php5
[12:57] <Seveas> dapatrick, odd
[12:57] <dapatrick> Yeah totally.  If you apt-get libapache2-mod-php4
[12:57] <dapatrick> You'll see what I mean.
[12:58] <dapatrick> I'd just like to be able to switch back and forth using sudo a2enmod/dismod
[12:58] <dapatrick> Know what I mean?
[12:58] <andi5> dapatrick: use aptitude and tell it that you want to keep php5
[12:58] <dapatrick> aptitude.
[12:58] <dapatrick> Okay, thanks andi5.
[12:58] <andi5> dapatrick: yeah, the third column has a A for automatic (also automatic removals) and M (for manual)
[12:58] <dapatrick> Oh, no, curses.
[12:58] <Seveas> dapatrick, you don't need the package called php5 to keep libapache2-mod-php
[12:59] <Seveas> hmmmmm
[12:59] <andi5> dapatrick: curses == bad?
[12:59] <Seveas> ok, somwhow the packages now conflict
[12:59] <Seveas> fun
[12:59] <PacketScan> Seveas, weeee
[12:59] <dapatrick> andi5: I'll make it.  I'm not a fan, but not a zealot.
[01:00] <kingruedi> andi5: the problem was adblock. I didn't block it. So it is something different
[01:00] <Seveas> dapatrick, that basically makes it impossible to do what you want
[01:00] <andi5> kingruedi: cool, i like solved problems :) .... but they slowly become boring ;-)
[01:00] <andi5> s/slowly/fast/
[01:00] <dapatrick> Seveas: I'm not sure what you mean?
[01:00] <dapatrick> I didn't mean php5
[01:00] <dapatrick> I mean libapache2-mod-php5
[01:01] <Seveas> yeah libapache2-mod-php5 conflicts with libapache2-mod-php4 which means the packages don't want to be installed together
[01:01] <dapatrick> Can I see what conflicts without downloading them?
[01:02] <andi5> dapatrick, Seveas: php5 & mod-php4 is ok, though
[01:02] <dapatrick> Right.
[01:02] <andi5> dapatrick: aptitude shows them all... well, i like it... ;-)
[01:02] <kingruedi> i think i'll try to reinstall adblock and check if it is okay.
[01:02] <dapatrick> That's what I have now, but in the reverse.
[01:02] <dapatrick> But I also want both apache modules, just not enabled at once.
[01:03] <dapatrick> I was betting their shared libraries are named differently so in theory it shouldn't be a problem.
[01:03] <mysticaurora> I have a slight problem concerning the official version of Firefox and Fluxbox. I'm trying to get Firefox back into my /usr/bin, and into Fluxbox's right-click menu(it was automatically generated).
[01:03] <freddyubuntu> Guys , my eyes become tired of reading, I used to make the webpages be read by "Text To Speech" in Windows...how I can do that in Ubuntu , any user friendly program ?
[01:03] <andi5> dapatrick: yeah, install php{4,5} and switch between mod-php{4,5}... but i guess you want to do that anyway :)
[01:03] <dapatrick> but apparently it is.
[01:03] <dapatrick> Yeah.
[01:04] <Seveas> freddyubuntu, festival comes to mind - no idea how to use it though, maybe #ubuntu-accessibility can help
[01:04] <andi5> freddyubuntu: puhhh, the only thing i know about text2speech is festival... see Seveas
[01:04] <Master_Sv> hi all
[01:04] <RememberPOL> hi
[01:04] <kaot> mysticaurora: do you need to move firefox or do you just want fluxbox's menu to see it?
[01:04] <freddyubuntu> I know festival is text2speech
[01:04] <freddyubuntu> but I dont know how to use it
[01:04] <neotard> Are there any good lightweight, gtk, web browsers other than firefox and galeon?
[01:05] <andi5> neotard: epiphany
[01:05] <Master_Sv> any people for speak czech ?
[01:05] <riddlebox> anyone else having a problem with phpmyadmin not displaying, but firefox asking to download a file?
[01:05] <Seveas> !cz
[01:05] <ubotu> esk uivatele dme, aby mluvili v kanle #ubuntu anglicky. esky je mono se domluvit v #ubuntu-cz. Dkujeme.
[01:05] <mysticaurora> I've tried using 'cp' to copy the firefox shortcut from ~/firefox/ to /usr/bin, but when I try to start firefox through the term, it says it can't find mozilla's runtime directory.
[01:05] <tach00> check it out what i got when i ran # dpkg --configure -a
[01:05] <tach00> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16890
[01:05] <mysticaurora> kaot: I just want it to show up on flux's menu.
[01:05] <Master_Sv> ok, sry
[01:05] <dapatrick> WTF.
[01:05] <dapatrick> aptitude is removing everything.
[01:05] <andi5> dapatrick: stop it
[01:05] <RememberPOL> Is there any package differences between the "Desktop/Server/Alternative" install CD ISOs available here: http://mirror.cs.umn.edu/ubuntu-releases/6.06/  (What _exactly_ is the main difference between the D/S/A derivatives?)
[01:06] <gnomefreak> dapatrick: aptitude does that
[01:06] <mysticaurora> dapatrick: Ctrl+C
[01:06] <mysticaurora> to cancel
[01:06] <andi5> dapatrick: choose _either_ synaptic or aptitude, they do not like each other
[01:06] <andi5> but you can correct that
[01:06] <Seveas> tach00, you need to boot inteo a server kernel
[01:06] <neotard> andi5:  thank you, will look.
[01:06] <lophyte> anyone know how I can convert a DAA file to an ISO?
[01:06] <kaot> mysticaurora: edit the menu file ( ~/.fluxbox/menu, usually), look for the firefox entry, specifiy the new path (~/firefox/whatever).  You may need to restart fluxbox afterwards.
[01:06] <andrea> hi i succcesfully installed xgl/compiz....but every time i use the theme manager, the program crashes
[01:06] <tach00> why wold i do that, im not running a server
[01:06] <mysticaurora> I remember there being a tool to use that makes fluxbox refresh its generated menu file.
[01:07] <eobanb> RememberPOL, Desktop is what you probably want to use.  the server version comes without xorg.  the alternative is an installer CD for ubuntu, but it has no liveCD function
[01:07] <mysticaurora> okay, I'll give that a shot.
[01:07] <kaot> mysticaurora: there probably is an automatic way, but I always did it the hard way because I'm a bonehead.
[01:07] <mysticaurora> kaot: To be honest, I prefer the manual menu method. Lots more control. :P
[01:08] <andi5> dapatrick: the trick is to correct everything, so that aptitude will not install or deinstall anything when you press "g"
[01:08] <kaot> there ya go then! :)
[01:08] <mysticaurora> This is only a temporary setup, though. I'm buying my new box pretty soon.
[01:08] <Master_Sv> is are here any people who help me with pptp klient ?
[01:08] <dapatrick> andi5: Okay.
[01:08] <dapatrick> Is there a way to do it on the command line?
[01:08] <tach00> Seveas: why do i nee to boot into a serve termina
[01:08] <freddyubuntu> so nobody here has ever used Text To Speech under ubuntu ?
[01:09] <mysticaurora> Weird..
[01:09] <mysticaurora> kaot: [include]  (/etc/X11/fluxbox/fluxbox-menu)
[01:09] <Master_Sv> i searching pptp klient for graphic mode for Ubuntu 6.06 v.586i ? give me link for download please
[01:09] <mysticaurora> I guess I should check out that file.
[01:09] <andi5> dapatrick: well, i have never used synaptic extensively, so i do not really know what aptitude wants to change..... best, you fire up aptitude, press g once.... you will have categories like "will be removed".... go to the heading (starting with --) and press "+" for install (do not deinstall)...
[01:10] <andi5> dapatrick: do the same with things to install, press "-" to inhibit installation
[01:10] <docko> hi does anyone know any ssl compliant ircd?
[01:10] <andrea> why is my list of available keyboard layouts empty in System | Preferences | Keyboard?
[01:10] <tach00> is there a service app that ca be ran to fix problems in ubuntu system
[01:10] <dapatrick> andi5: okay, thanks.
[01:10] <tach00> like system doctor
[01:10] <RememberPOL> eobanb: Yes this will be used on a SDK/IDE laptop so I definitely want X installed but I was confused by the wording under Server intall CD..."install Ubuntu permanently on a computer" .. (as if you can't uinstall a system without X... or you can't permanently keep a system with X....) I think the server description should be in more detail, seeing as how the people who really need what it offers will actually understand
[01:10] <andi5> dapatrick: good luck :)
[01:10] <Master_Sv> !pptp
[01:10] <JUm> are there any good money management programf for ubuntu?
[01:10] <ubotu> I know nothing about pptp
[01:10] <RememberPOL> Thanks, have a nice day!
[01:11] <andi5> JUm: gnucash 2.0 comes out soon :-D
[01:11] <JUm> thanks andi
[01:11] <andi5> JUm: otherwise: grisbi, kmymoney & others
[01:11] <mysticaurora> Holy **** this menu file is huge!
[01:11] <kaot> mysticaurora: I just installed flux about 3 hours ago on this system, had to create the menu by hand from scratch.  Good fun.  I didn't like that menu creator dealie.
[01:11] <JUm> anything in the repositories?
[01:11] <mysticaurora> Yeah, I got lost in the menu creator as well.
[01:12] <andi5> JUm: gnucash 1.8.12 is in the repositories, all the others too
[01:12] <hybridpunk> Currently I have two hard drives installed, WindowsXP Professional on my main hard drive, and Ubuntu on my second hard drive, I was wondering if it was possible to access my Windows harddrive to play my mp3s (just read access, dont plan on moving files between linux-windows) Can anyone help me out on this please?
[01:12] <mysticaurora> When I first installed fluxbox on my other box (before it died ;_;), I checked out fluxbox's site and got to learning. It's such an easy system for editing the menu.
[01:12] <Jowi> !ntfs
[01:12] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions
[01:12] <mysticaurora> It's part of why flux is my favorite window manager.
[01:12] <hybridpunk> Thank you Ubotu!
[01:12] <Morrowyn> we need triple a games on ubuntu :)
[01:13] <andi5> where is the place to send awards to ubotu? ;-)
[01:13] <docko> please does anyone know any ssl compliant ircd?
[01:13] <amonkey> i'm following a tutorial that says to edit /etc/modules.d/aliases, but that file does not exist. has it moved? i'm trying to get the nvidia driver working.
[01:14] <Paladine> docko, most of them are
[01:14] <mysticaurora> Do you mean an IRC client docko ?
[01:14] <larson9999> ok, so what's the trick to updating from 15-23 to 15-25 and keeping the nvidia gfx card working?
[01:14] <andi5> amonkey: /etc/modutils.d/aliases?
[01:14] <kaot> mysticaurora: irc server
[01:14] <andi5> amonkey: i hate myself.../etc/modprobe.d/aliases
[01:14] <tach00> is there an app like system doctor, that can be ran to fix problems within ubuntu???
[01:14] <JUm> hmm my sources.list must be broken again :-)
[01:14] <MatthewV> tach00, what's the problem ??
[01:15] <mysticaurora> oh, okay.
[01:15] <andi5> JUm: why that?
[01:15] <AdamG_FC6> can someone tell me where the sudoers file is? I can't do anything as root...
[01:15] <k3nobi_> tach00: you wont find dr. watson on linux ;-p
[01:15] <mysticaurora> /etc/sudoers?
[01:15] <eobanb> !tell AdamG_FC6 about sudo
[01:15] <amonkey> andi5, much thanks
[01:15] <mysticaurora> Let me check
[01:15] <mysticaurora> AdamG_FC6: /etc/sudoers
[01:15] <JUm> cos the reason i came in here was that i couldnt find any of those in my repositories :-)
[01:15] <AdamG_FC6> thx
[01:15] <mysticaurora> no problem
[01:15] <mysticaurora> :)
[01:16] <eobanb> docko, i think most ircds can do ssl
[01:16] <tach00> MatthewV: as ive stated before in this chat, there is an error involving kcemirror, and my system wont get past it, cant install anything else
[01:16] <andi5> JUm: do you have universe?
[01:16] <mysticaurora> AdamG_FC6: Have you tried 'sudo su', entering your password, and changing root's password with 'passwd'?
[01:16] <kaot> hey speaking of sudo... is there a way to autocomplete sudo commands?  or should I just be less lazy?
[01:16] <JUm> I just added them ;-)
[01:16] <andi5> JUm: apt-get update?
[01:16] <MatthewV> oh, ok sry tach00 i just joined today :)
[01:17] <AdamG_FC6> Mysticaurora: can't
[01:17] <mysticaurora> That sucks.
[01:17] <JUm> I've fixed it
[01:17] <AdamG_FC6> cause My user isn't in the sudoers file
[01:17] <wastrel> kaot:  you can set up bash to autocomplete i think, never bothered with it myself tho
[01:17] <AdamG_FC6> which I can't edit without root...
[01:17] <JUm> thanks andi
[01:17] <tach00> thats ok, im new to linux and this           chat
[01:17] <mysticaurora> Ah
[01:17] <niki> does anyone know a good application for linux that's similar to Acid Pro for windows....i need something that's easy to mix multiple audio tracks with (preferably something besides audacity)
[01:17] <mysticaurora> That's right.
[01:17] <andi5> JUm: :)
[01:17] <AdamG_FC6> so on, so forth, for all eternity
[01:17] <AdamG_FC6> eh, well, that's what LiveCD's are for
[01:17] <c0re^> hey everyone.
[01:17] <kaot> AdamG_FC6: how on earth did that happen?  (so I don't do it myself)
[01:18] <byen> hey guys.. have a quick question.. I want to burn an iso to install ubuntu. But it is a cdrw. shud i choose mutli-session or finalize session to use the cdrw
[01:18] <AdamG_FC6> Kaot: this is actually in Fedora6, not ubuntu
[01:18] <MatthewV> tach00, kcemirror is a prog. to control windows ce, right?
[01:18] <byen> i want to use the cdrw for other use later
[01:18] <tach00> ithink so
[01:18] <AdamG_FC6> but I messed up my grub, so I can't get to ubuntu
[01:18] <andi5> byen: my guess is finalize, but please please do not take that for granted :)
[01:19] <MatthewV> tach00, do you actually use it?
[01:19] <tach00> i was updating and i guess i clicked on kcemirror on accident, however it has something that doesnt lik my system
[01:19] <neotard> AdamG_FC6:  you can always get to a healthy partition, even if grub is screwed.  boot up off the install cd and use the live version of it.
[01:19] <byen> ok. andi5.. lemme see if anyone else has any idea too.. thanks
[01:19] <andrea> why does the desktop theme change when i use xgl?
[01:19] <andrea> and in turn, why does the theme manager programme crash?
[01:19] <MatthewV> tach00, can you start your system to uninstall it?
[01:19] <tach00> now i cant get rid of it
[01:19] <neotard> andrea:  because xgl only supports one theme
[01:20] <AdamG_FC6> neotard: Yeah, I've been doing that. But whenever I've been in the liveCD there's been no one to help me with GRUB... but I think I have it figured out now
[01:20] <tach00> i am running my system, but it wont let me uninstall it
[01:20] <c0re^> jesus the winehq channel is dead :(
[01:20] <MatthewV> tach00, error?
[01:20] <andrea> neotard: thank you
[01:20] <neotard> andrea:  xgl is a window manager itself, it's not as of the moment as friendly :)
[01:20] <tach00> hang on ill show you
[01:20] <c0re^> neotard: i installed it with ease, whats not friendly
[01:20] <andrea> neotard: the effects are cool though :O)
[01:21] <MatthewV> tach00, make sure you don't paste big errors in here, use pastebin or #flood
[01:21] <andrea> neotard: i just prefer the default ubuntu theme though....
[01:21] <tach00> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16887 click this
[01:21] <gumpish> Document stubs make the baby jesus cry: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PXEInstall
[01:21] <neotard> c0re^:  the themes.
[01:21] <elknof3> hey hi everybody
[01:21] <andi5> ok, one question: LTS = long time support, right? will there be no updates of applications like there have not been for breezy? only security updates?
[01:21] <c0re^> http://www.tectonic.co.za/view.php?id=916 easiest way to install xgl, but instead of using that (not latest compiz) get it from the compiz site.. which i forgot
[01:22] <elknof3> can somebody helpme configuring the microphone??  it a laptop with integrated mic...
[01:22] <wastrel> breezy only gets security updates now afaik.
[01:22] <tach00> i get that error every time i try to istall/uninstall anything
[01:22] <andi5> i mean dapper now :)
[01:22] <neotard> andrea:  found a really nice theme setup I think :)  silicon borders, outcrop controls and flat-blue icons.
[01:22] <MatthewV> tach00, is it just me, or are you trying to reinstall or replace kcemirror, rather than remove it....?
[01:22] <JUm> what is xgl and what difference would it make to my machine?
[01:22] <c0re^> anyone with wine experience care to help me?
[01:22] <rob> JUm, it will crash more
[01:23] <JUm> lol
[01:23] <rob> :)
[01:23] <tach00> no, i tried to uninstall it, woldnt work, so i tried o reinstall it so i could uninstall it, still dont or
[01:23] <andi5> JUm: xgl is evil and it will make a difference between a running computer and a not-running computer
[01:23] <tach00> work
[01:23] <niki> Acid Pro equivalent for linux?  anyone?
[01:23] <johan_> This is so weird, no matter how many times I change the loginscreen, it always reverts back to the default one. Has anyone had the same problem?
[01:23] <andrea> neotard: where are those options in the theme manager?
[01:23] <neotard> JUm:  Xgl is a fancy x server that uses graphics accelration to do eye candy.  it isn't an important, and sometimes problematic addition for many people.
[01:23] <ompaul> niki, why not ask for a program that does X
[01:23] <johan_> niki: ardour is the only one that I know of. I haven't tried to install it yet though.
[01:23] <niki> i need a program that can mix multiple tracks of audio
[01:23] <tlax> anybody else have weird problems with gnomes filemenus?
[01:23] <JUm> i tried to install it once and gnome wouldnt start properly
[01:23] <c0re^> is ubuntu supposed to detect my agp card as pci?
[01:24] <riddlebox> how can I tell what package something called lex is in?
[01:24] <c0re^> is ubuntu supposed to detect my agp card as pci?
[01:24] <ompaul> !repeat
[01:24] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly, if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[01:24] <neotard> andrea:  think I downloaded silicon and outcrop off art.gnome.org, and flat-blue is a default icon set.  under themes you go to "theme details" and change each of the three areas to what you want.
[01:24] <rob> niki, tried Kdenlive?
[01:24] <niki> rob, nope....i'll look it up now, thanks :)
[01:24] <andi5> riddlebox: it is flex.... see packages.ubuntu.com
[01:24] <ompaul> riddlebox, apt-cache search lex
[01:24] <tach00> MatthewV: thats what i am trying to tell you,its like my sysem is hung on it
[01:25] <neotard> c0re^:  what do you mean detect it as pci?
[01:25] <MatthewV> tach00, maybe try uninstalling while in recovery mode, or use some of the --force options in dpkg?
[01:25] <andrea> neotard: in theme details i only get "controls" and "icons"
[01:25] <rob> niki, rosegarden is supposed to be pretty good too
[01:25] <c0re^> neotard: i go into the device manager, it says bus.info = pci
[01:25] <mysticaurora> koat: Just because I'm lazy, do you happen to know how I can make a valid firefox shortcut in /usr/bin?
[01:25] <neotard> andrea:  if you're using xgl you can't control borders
[01:25] <andrea> i like xgl :O)
[01:25] <c0re^> neotard: and has a pci tab
[01:25] <tach00> ok i will try the --force options, but i have not tried to reove it in ecovery mode, gess i will try that as well
[01:26] <ompaul> mysticaurora, it is thre already
[01:26] <andrea> but now it's obstructing practicality.....:O(
[01:26] <tach00> So, there is nothing i can do while logged in huh?
[01:26] <andi5> c0re^: i have no idea, but do you have /sys/bus/agp?
[01:26] <neotard> c0re^:  *shrug*  agp is usually on the pci bus.  all agp cards detect there that I'm aware of.
[01:26] <wm0t> hey.
[01:26] <wm0t> guys
[01:26] <alex_> how to install a .tar.gz file?
[01:26] <wm0t> im trying to mount an extended fat32 partition
[01:26] <wm0t> mount /dev/hda4 /home/wm0t/Desktop/fat32/ -t vfat -o iocharset=utf8,umask=000
[01:26] <wm0t> it wont work
[01:26] <wm0t> any ideas?
[01:26] <c0re^> andi5: let me check
[01:26] <mysticaurora> ompaul: I uninstalled the ubuntu version of Fx and installed the official version (so I can make ColorZilla work)
[01:26] <andi5> neotard: ah, so agp is not a separate bus? fine :)
[01:26] <mysticaurora> So /usr/bin/firefox doesn't exist
[01:26] <neotard> alex_:  tar.gz is an archive file, it's not an installation package necessarily.
[01:27] <c0re^> wm0t: did you create that directory?
[01:27] <MatthewV> tach00, yeah, its just a suggestion, as that will then make sure nothing else is running that might be using some files..... rather strange really
[01:27] <wm0t> yes of course
[01:27] <c0re^> wm0t: lol good
[01:27] <tach00> MatthewV: can ou give me an example of what command might work?
[01:27] <tach00> --force i mean
[01:27] <c0re^> andi5: negatory, no agp directory within /sys/bus
[01:27] <neotard> mysticaurora:  if you install the official version outside of a debian package, are you sure it install into /usr/bin?
[01:27] <ompaul> alex_, usually you dont wnat to in most cases, what are you trying to install, apt-get has almost 20k packjages when configured correctly, tar xzgf File.tar.gz and then follow instrutions
[01:28] <mysticaurora> neoncode: I installed it to my home directory. <_<;;
[01:28] <MatthewV> tach00, maybe to force everything : sudo dpkg --remove --force-all kcemirror
[01:28] <ubuntu> HEY GUYS question, when installing under the new liveCD install, thhe mount points wont wipe my windows right ? its just how to mount the partitions in linux ???????????????
[01:28] <ubuntu> it says "Prepare Mount Points"
[01:28] <mysticaurora> I tried copying the binary to /usr/bin but it said it couldn't find the mozilla runtime directory.
[01:29] <ubuntu> anyone ?
[01:29] <neotard> mysticaurora:  then you need to manage that :)  non-debs don't necessarily magically configure themself.
[01:29] <c0re^> ubuntu: uhh, are you doing a manual partition install?
[01:29] <andrea> ubuntu: make sure you do not mount on a current NTFS drive though
[01:29] <mysticaurora> so I had to run firefox through '~/firefox/firefox'
[01:29] <johan_> where do I get the desktop effects tools for compiz that comes installed with suse?
[01:29] <Toz> #ubuntu-fr
[01:29] <c0re^> andi5: negatory, no agp directory within /sys/bus
[01:29] <ubuntu> c0re^ yes trying to  install without wiping my current windows
[01:29] <wm0t> andrea?
[01:29] <ompaul> mysticaurora, you need to install it there - have a look at the help file and "system help system doc > ubuntu packaging guidel"
[01:29] <wm0t> are you talking to me?
[01:29] <neotard> mysticaurora:  not the way I'd do it, but whatever works right? :)
[01:30] <wm0t> yes there is a ntfs partition on the same drive
[01:30] <ompaul> !xgl
[01:30] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing (window) manager) and XGL (Xserver architecture layered on top of OpenGL) howto at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompositeManager XGL+compiz help in #ubuntu-xgl  See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems
[01:30] <ubuntu> c0re^ i have sda1 for my backup partition, sda2 as my windows, and / as my linux
[01:30] <andi5> c0re^: yes, .... i guess everything is ok.... or.... better shut your computer down immediately ;-)
[01:30] <andrea> wmOt: no to ubuntu....
[01:30] <mysticaurora> ompaul: Shouldn't I install new packages to /etc/ instead of /usr/bin?
[01:30] <c0re^> andi5: what?
[01:30] <c0re^> andi5: wtf?
[01:30] <mysticaurora> I thought only shortcuts belong in /usr/bin
[01:30] <ubuntu> andrea read what i said to c0re^ does that make sense?
[01:30] <andi5> c0re^: lol, you see smile ;-)
[01:30] <wm0t> ah ok
[01:30] <wm0t> well..
[01:30] <ompaul> mysticaurora, no /usr/local but read that doc it may help you along
[01:30] <wm0t> any help people?
[01:30] <mysticaurora> okay
[01:30] <c0re^> andi5: no no wait a second, what the hell are you talking about, turn off my computer
[01:31] <neotard> mysticaurora:  lsb defines /usr/bin as the place where "user binary programs" are installed
[01:31] <tach00> MathewV: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16893
[01:31] <ubuntu> andrea am i making sense?
[01:31] <tach00> this is what that comand did
[01:31] <c0re^> andi5: so im supposed to have no agp directory within /sys/bus/?
[01:31] <andrea> ubuntu: i'm assuming / is a seperate entry in your partition list
[01:31] <neotard> mysticaurora:  or rather, "system wide" binaries :)
[01:31] <ompaul> mysticaurora, frankly I don't approve of bringing in random new packages due to the fact that they can break what you already have installed in new and interesting ways
[01:31] <andrea> ubuntu: if it is, then ur set
[01:31] <ubuntu> andrea yes
[01:31] <andi5> c0re^: yeah, or better take your computer and throw it into your local river :)
[01:31] <ompaul> !timetable
[01:31] <ubotu> Ubuntu uses a strict timetable for releases, which means that sometimes newly released programs miss the timetable. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases for more.
[01:31] <c0re^> andi5: oh coolio.
[01:31] <jajaja-> hey guys, I messed up my nvidia drivers and I cant get to the ubuntu login screen, just takes me to the prompt to fix it but I am unsure how
[01:31] <c0re^> andi5:  are you experienced with wine?
[01:31] <ompaul> mysticaurora, ^^ that last comment by ubotu
[01:32] <andrea> ubuntu: you also need a partition for SWAP....a sort of "pagefile" drive
[01:32] <ubuntu> andrea i love the new live CD install, i remember days of old, when there were blue screens and black text
[01:32] <andi5> c0re^: you mean the winehq? i do not use it
[01:32] <c0re^> andi5: i desperately need my winecfg to stop dying when i hit the audio tab
[01:32] <c0re^> andi5: ARGGHHH
[01:32] <ompaul> jajaja-, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg << do that
[01:32] <c0re^> andi5: nobody in #winehq is alive, so i have to ask here
[01:32] <neotard> jajaja-:  if you were tinkering with xorg.conf you might want to back it up and rerun "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[01:32] <mysticaurora> Where can I find the help file to consult, ompaul ? I don't think I can get to system help through a menu since I'm using fluxbox.
[01:32] <andi5> c0re^: sure that this is the default wine irc channel?
[01:32] <c0re^> andi5: pretty sure
[01:32] <neotard> jajaja-:  then you'll need to restart gdm
[01:33] <ompaul> mysticaurora, well it should be in /usr/share/docs and it is on line at help.ubuntu.com
[01:33] <c0re^> andi5: Topic for #winehq is End user/tech support channel for Wine (www.winehq.org)
[01:33] <mysticaurora> ompaul: Alright, thanks. :)
[01:33] <larson9999> apparently i timed out so i'll try again:  i'm so confused.  shouldn't there be a linux-restricted-modules-2.15-25* in the same place there is a linux-restricted-modules-2.15-23* ?
[01:33] <ompaul> yw
[01:33] <MatthewV> tach00, try reinstalling it, using sudo dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/kcemirror_0.1.4-3ubuntu1_i386.deb
[01:33] <andrea> ubuntu: i'm trying to learn to use linux slowly....its quite fun...and i found ubuntu perfect for my needs
[01:34] <ompaul> larson9999, so you mix and match, deathmatch 2006 and your cpu plays your binaries
[01:34] <neotard> be careful with force O.o
[01:34] <tach00> ok
[01:34] <c0re^> andrea: especially xgl, it was easy to install right?
[01:34] <ubuntu> andrea hehe i started using linux back at the end of Hoary
[01:34] <ompaul> !reinstall
[01:34] <ubotu> To renew the configuration of a package when installing, sudo apt-get remove --purge <package> && sudo apt-get install <package>.  WARNING: This is dangerous, don't do this with core packages
[01:34] <andi5> c0re^: hm.... well, i would like to help you, but.... i follow a few but simply rules... one of them is not to use wine :)
[01:34] <mysticaurora> ompaul: The packaging guide, correct?
[01:34] <Lobster> Gute Nacht
[01:34] <andi5> Lobster: n8
[01:34] <ompaul> mysticaurora, at a guess yes
[01:34] <larson9999> ompaul: errr, what?
[01:34] <c0re^> andi5: sorry, i have to due to Steam not being native to linux.
[01:34] <ompaul> larson9999, read ubotu
[01:34] <MatthewV> tach00, or maybe try what ubotu just said
[01:35] <jajaja0> hey guys, I messed up my nvidia drivers and I cant get to the ubuntu login screen, just takes me to the prompt to fix it but I am unsure how
[01:35] <mysticaurora> What exactly am I looking for again?
[01:35] <mysticaurora> This channel moves so quickly..
[01:35] <ubuntu> jajaja0 reinstall linux : )
[01:35] <andi5> c0re^: so what exactly happens?
[01:35] <andrea> cOre^: for XGL i followed the help on the forums...didn't find any trouble....but I didn't like the way it disable themes
[01:35] <jajaja0> noooooo ubuntu
[01:35] <ubuntu> lol
[01:35] <ompaul> jajaja0, I answered that already: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg << do that
[01:35] <c0re^> andrea: didnt disable mine...
[01:35] <ubuntu> jajaja0 boot in recovery mode
[01:35] <jajaja0> is there a way i can save all my myth settings ubuntu
[01:36] <ubuntu> jajaja0 then do a reconfigure...
[01:36] <robertj> wowzers, I'm stunned by how well WorldOfWarcraft worked. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft
[01:36] <andrea> cOre^: it just lets me use a single theme....and the theme manager program crashes each time
[01:36] <jajaja0> i cant get into recovery mode ubuntu, does the same thing
[01:36] <ubuntu> jajaja0 a reconfigure will not wipe the HD
[01:36] <andrea> so i'm back with normal desktop
[01:36] <c0re^> andi5: i click the audio tab, and it dumps this into the console: ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
[01:36] <c0re^> Creating link /home/josh/.kde/socket-josh-ubuntu.
[01:36] <c0re^> can't create mcop directory
[01:36] <jajaja0> ubuntu how can i do a reconfigure?
[01:36] <c0re^> andrea: i have a dark theme on mine, with xgl
[01:36] <ompaul> !enter
[01:36] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[01:36] <c0re^> andrea: changed after i installed
[01:37] <ompaul> c0re^, that enter comment was for you
[01:37] <ubuntu> jajaja0 sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:37] <andrea> cOre^: :o(
[01:37] <ompaul> !paste
[01:37] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[01:37] <c0re^> ok paul
[01:37] <c0re^> jesus
[01:37] <mysticaurora> pastebin is awesome.
[01:37] <c0re^> channel nazi :(
[01:37] <ompaul> c0re^, less language
[01:37] <c0re^> sorry.
[01:37] <c0re^> haha
[01:37] <mysticaurora> Very helpful for finding x-server errors
[01:37] <andrea> cOre^: do you have the specific help page you used for XGL?
[01:38] <tach00> MathewV: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16894 for the last command
[01:38] <skrummm> !help mount
[01:38] <ubotu> I know nothing about help mount
[01:38] <skrummm> aww
[01:38] <skrummm> !mount
[01:38] <ubotu> Disks store lots of data. Partitioning: try gparted or qtparted  - Formatting: see the manpage for mkfs  - Mounting: system -> administration -> disks
[01:38] <howy424> Hi, I've just done my first ubuntu install, I did it on a brand new 80GB HD with two partitions, but it created it's own partition, which is only 3GB and too small by the looks of things
[01:38] <tach00> MatthwewV; for what uboto said, E: Couldn't find package kcemirror_0.1.4-3ubuntu1_i386.deb
[01:39] <tach00> i guess its not there and some log says it is
[01:39] <tach00> maybe
[01:39] <skrummm> howy: did you manually edit the partition table?
[01:39] <burgermann> In the installed ubuntu apache package. Does anyone know what format locales must be? Since I'm from denmark da_DK should work, it doesn't know.
[01:39] <tach00> how can i get my system t overloo it
[01:39] <tach00> overlook
[01:39] <MatthewV> tach00, so ubotu 's didn't work either?? to be perfectly honest, I am... well... stuck
[01:40] <howy424> no, the two partitions I created on the new drive were done in Win XP, one a 30GB FAT32 and another 50GB ntfs...
[01:40] <tach00> ME TOO,thats why i am herelol
[01:40] <mjr> burgermann, probably only the utf-8 locale is generated by default, try da_DK.utf8
[01:40] <howy424> it didn't seem to recognise the FAT 32 drive, so I told it just use all the NTFS partition
[01:40] <tach00> could it e a bug in the OS?
[01:40] <skrummm> leave it unpartitoned
[01:40] <ompaul> howy424, don't try to write to ntfs
[01:40] <howy424> the whole drive?
[01:40] <skrummm> no
[01:41] <skrummm> just the ntfs section
[01:41] <howy424> that's what I'd read in the docs, and why I created a FAT 32 partition
[01:41] <skrummm> then partition that bit with ubuntu
[01:41] <tach00> what file keeps the package managers lists? maybe if i remove the text line the system will oerlook it
[01:41] <ubuntu> dont partition me, im evil !
[01:41] <burgermann> mjr: That might be a problem since the page is ISO, however you atleast pointed me in a direction to look
[01:41] <burgermann> mjr: so thx :)
[01:42] <Intelligi> I need serious help.
[01:42] <Intelligi> And I can't seem to find it.
[01:42] <skrummm> also, im on a live cd and i need to mount the hdd that ubuntu is installed on, but nothing seems to be working, any ideas?
[01:42] <howy424> OK, so can I re-partition the FAT32 partition, so ubuntu can use all of it?
[01:42] <skrummm> do you have an install of windows on this drive/
[01:42] <skrummm> ?
[01:43] <ubuntu> you can but most times yull loose all the date
[01:43] <ompaul> Intelligi, as you have been here for hours has it not occured to you that those who get help ask informed direct questions of the channel and wait for a reply
[01:43] <ubuntu> datat*
[01:43] <tach00> MatthewV: what file keeps the package managers lists? maybe if i remove the text line the system will overlook it
[01:43] <howy424> skrumm: no, it's a drive dedicated for ubuntu
[01:43] <Hackmo> Hey all, does Ubuntu ship with GCC and other dev utils now?
[01:43] <MatthewV> tach00, i'm not sure if that would work, and i don't know :(
[01:43] <ubuntu> then yes howy424
[01:43] <skrummm> @howy: then just format the entire drive and let the installer partition it
[01:43] <ompaul> Hackmo, you should install build-essential and you will enjoy gcc
[01:44] <ubuntu> hackmo sudo apt-get install is the tool for you
[01:44] <howy424> OK, so do I "re-install" ubuntu?
[01:44] <Hackmo> ompaul: but it doesn't come with GCC as a standerd?
[01:44] <apokryphos> Hackmo: not in a standard install, no.
[01:44] <ompaul> Hackmo, it is on the disk not installed
[01:44] <ggilbert_> Hackmo: No, ubuntu doesn't come with a compiler out of the box
[01:44] <potoka> holaaaaaaa
[01:44] <skrummm> @howy: yeah
[01:44] <ompaul> !es
[01:44] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[01:45] <Hackmo> apokryphos, ompaul, ggilbert: ok thanks :)
[01:45] <potoka> ok
[01:45] <howy424> K, I am out of here to go do just that...
[01:45] <potoka> bye
[01:45] <howy424> thanks for your help all!
[01:45] <ompaul> skrummm, this is irc @ does nothing it is in the public domain ;-)
[01:45] <skrummm> @howy: unless you have data you want ot save
[01:45] <skrummm> d'oh
[01:45] <howy424> nah, fresh install, can loose everything
[01:45] <howy424> thanks again, cya
[01:45] <skrummm> alright
[01:45] <skrummm> cool
[01:45] <tach00> ok so i guess i will go and see how long it takes me to go back to windows lol
[01:45] <skrummm> let us know how it went
[01:45] <Intelligi> Ok, why is my network no longer working?   And secondly -- kopete "needing" xmms -- what??
[01:46] <Bassetts> gimp wont open the svg
[01:46] <skrummm> oh.
[01:46] <Bassetts> inkscape doesnt seem to save as png
[01:47] <skrummm> save it as something else
[01:47] <skrummm> then open it in gimp?
[01:47] <Bassetts> like?
[01:47] <skrummm> bmp? xcf?
[01:47] <ompaul> Intelligi, I told you ndiswrapper eariler, if it worked last night then click on System Administration Networking and work on it from there
[01:47] <skrummm> srsly, mounting a drive? anyone?
[01:47] <VieLGuS-KuTaS> apokryphos: it needs xmms to compile
[01:47] <Intelligi> I have, and I've tried everything, and nothing works.
[01:47] <apokryphos> VieLGuS-KuTaS: no, it doesn't.
[01:48] <VieLGuS-KuTaS> apokryphos: well im compiling it , and thats what it says
[01:48] <ggilbert_> apokryphos: Kopete had an xmms plugin at one point, so there might still be a build dependency in the package
[01:48] <apokryphos> VieLGuS-KuTaS: pastebin, please.
[01:48] <ompaul> skrummm, mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/sillydrive - what exactly are you trying to do - not enough info
[01:48] <apokryphos> ggilbert_: it would never be a build-dependency but an option
[01:48] <Bassetts> skrummm: inkscape doesnt save those
[01:48] <VieLGuS-KuTaS> apokryphos: alright
[01:48] <ompaul> Intelligi, get other card or router and test setup
[01:48] <wastrel> gimp can open pdf
[01:48] <Bassetts> thanks
[01:48] <skrummm> im on a live cd right now, trying to get into the hdd that ubuntu is installed on
[01:48] <Intelligi> It's Ubuntu, not the card or the router.
[01:48] <ompaul> Intelligi, it does not stop working unless you do something
[01:48] <apokryphos> ggilbert_ ; VieLGuS-KuTaS: think about it, Kopete is KDE's instant messenger.  If it is a Broadcom, I have mine working but only at home, no where else
[01:49] <anosa> i can't hear any sound with my creative SB sound card, help me... please
[01:50] <ompaul> Intelligi, so you installed got it working and between the install and the shutdown you added something that broke the network
[01:50] <apokryphos> anosa: /msg ubotu sound
[01:50] <Intelligi> It is a Xterasys XN-2511b.
[01:50] <Intelligi> No, I didn't.
[01:50] <Blissex> anosa: troubleshooting section of http://WWW.sabi.co.UK/Notes/linuxSoundALSA.html
[01:50] <ompaul> Intelligi, if it worked yesterday then it should work today
[01:50] <Intelligi> Well, possibly. I did download XMMS and VDL Media.
[01:50] <ggilbert_> apokryphos: It build depends on xmms-dev
[01:50] <ompaul> Intelligi, and other things no doubt
[01:50] <ggilbert_> apokryphos: I just looked
[01:50] <Intelligi> No.
[01:51] <Intelligi> I installed nothing else.
[01:51] <apokryphos> ggilbert_: no, it doesn't. Only if you want the xmms multimedia plugin for the "now playing"
[01:51] <ompaul> Intelligi, is it some kind of usb device?
[01:51] <Intelligi> No, it is a PCI wireless card.
[01:51] <anosa> apokryphos, Blissex >> thnx, i'll check it out
[01:51] <ompaul> Intelligi, does lspci show it?
[01:52] <Intelligi> Hold on, brb.
[01:53] <ggilbert_> apokryphos: I just looked at the control file. The kdenetwork package has a build-depend against xmms. It may not be necessary to run kopete, but he said build :)
[01:53] <Intelligi> Yes, it does.
[01:53] <skrummm> alright, is there any way i can do a repair install of ubuntu?
[01:53] <Intelligi> It shows it as a Linksy though, but the chipset is right (adm8-blah something).
[01:54] <Intelligi> The wireless card is clearly recognized though.
[01:54] <ompaul> Intelligi, how did you get it to work the first time?
[01:54] <Intelligi> I didn't have to do anything. It just worked.
[01:54] <Intelligi> As soon as I booted up.
[01:54] <ompaul> Intelligi, got any other slots?
[01:54] <Intelligi> Which is why I was so impressed with Ubuntu.
[01:54] <Intelligi> Yeah.
[01:54] <apokryphos> ggilbert_: if you're talking about output from build-dep kopete (or the control file) then that *only* means that the package was made to require kopete, or that the kopete in the repos was compiled with xmms  support... again impossible, since there's no xmms on Kubuntu
[01:55] <Intelligi> You want me to move it to another PCI slot?
[01:55] <ompaul> was it in one of them ?
[01:55] <apokryphos> ggilbert_: *made to require xmms
[01:55] <Intelligi> Of course it was in a PCI slot.
[01:55] <Intelligi> IT wouldn't fit anywhere else.
[01:55] <ompaul> Intelligi, that was misunderstood, was it in a slot other than the one it is in
[01:56] <Intelligi> No, I have never moved it.
[01:56] <ggilbert_> apokryphos: erm. How would you build the debian package if ubuntu doesn't have all of the build dependencies?  ( and xmms is in the repository)
[01:56] <ompaul> Intelligi, okay do this - turn it off move it and turn it on again
[01:56] <andi5> Intelligi: beware... there are people that sawed off part of an agp(4x?) card to put it into a pci slot....
[01:56] <Intelligi> lol
[01:56] <Intelligi> Ok, I'll try that.
[01:56] <Intelligi> brb
[01:56] <andi5> funny, but it did not work ;-)
[01:56] <PacketScan> andi5, i've seen that before.
[01:56] <PacketScan> people are stupid sometimes.
[01:57] <andi5> o man...
[01:57] <fxroland2> hi
[01:57] <ompaul> PacketScan, or missing some information
[01:57] <PacketScan> ompaul, sorry that's plain irrisponsible.
[01:58] <davidmccabe> Argggh! My computer hardwarily crashed in the middle of upgrading to dapper!
[01:58] <apokryphos> ggilbert_: hm, actually, my bad -- very bad braino. Just realised that you would of course compile with xmms-dev even if there is no xmms for the distro just in case a user wished to use the plugin later.
[01:58] <ompaul> PacketScan, I would say, hard to justify
[01:58] <davidmccabe> At least it boots! How though do I resume the upgrade safely?
[01:58] <ggilbert_> apokryphos: :)
[01:58] <apokryphos> ggilbert_: apologies for my bad jumping the gun =)
[01:58] <mike-x2> hi all
[01:58] <dibblego> !flash
[01:58] <ubotu> For lots of multimedia issues this page has the useful information you want: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  see also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - Please use free formats: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[01:58] <skrummm> alright, next question: how can i reset a xorg.conf on another hdd?
[01:58] <apokryphos> ggilbert_: though I did originally take him to mean compile depends ;-)
[01:59] <apokryphos> skrummm: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:59] <ggilbert_> apokryphos: Some things have the weirdest dependencies :)
[01:59] <skrummm> apok: even if im running on a livecd right now?
[01:59] <mp3guy> ktorrent and azureus can't write to my fat32 partition, which is the one with all the free space, is there a way around this?
[01:59] <apokryphos> skrummm: indeed
[01:59] <skrummm> awesome, thanks
[01:59] <apokryphos> mp3guy: why can't they write to it?
[01:59] <apokryphos> mp3guy: fat32 has file limit of 4 gigs or something, though, as I recall.
[02:00] <mp3guy> can't create symlinks and "Operation Not Permitted" pretty much apokryphos
[02:00] <majd> hey
[02:00] <andi5> mp3guy: did you mount them correctly?
[02:00] <Intelligi> moved, booting now.
[02:00] <majd> can i install windows after i have ubuntu installed?
[02:00] <Intelligi> brb
[02:00] <mp3guy> whats the proper mount command andi5?
[02:00] <ompaul> !grub
[02:00] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[02:00] <mp3guy> for fstab
[02:00] <apokryphos> mp3guy: is it mounted as read only?
[02:00] <fxroland2> how can i reinstall samba ,but dont loss the users group?
[02:00] <apokryphos> majd: yes, but you'll need to read /msg ubotu grub
[02:01] <mjr> mp3guy, use another torrent client (I think rtorrent could work) or make a loopback ext2 file system in a fat32 file :]
[02:01] <ompaul> majd, ^^ keep in mind what ubotu said - if you have not started start with windows - or just leave windows off the machine
[02:01] <andi5> !tell mp3guy about fat32
[02:01] <mp3guy> apokryphos and andi5, I'll paste my fstab line for the drive
[02:01] <apokryphos> k
[02:02] <mp3guy> /dev/hda1       /home/thomas/stuff vfat    defaults,utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0       1
[02:02] <skrummm> aopk: i think that worked, thanks man!
[02:02] <apokryphos> VieLGuS-KuTaS: why are you trying to build kopete, by the way?
[02:02] <skrummm> i hope so, anyway
[02:02] <majd> apokryphos, so make sure i have a way to get grub...then install windows on a new partition i create during windows' installation?
[02:02] <Intelligi> That worked. Thanks ompaul.
[02:02] <Intelligi> You're the best!
[02:02] <Intelligi> Why would that change anything though?
[02:02] <fxroland2> $ sudo aptitude install smbfs?
[02:02] <VieLGuS-KuTaS> apokryphos: because i dont know any better
[02:02] <ompaul> Intelligi, - note this, pci and usb can at times do things we don't quite grok easiest to just move the device
[02:03] <apokryphos> majd: basically, yes.
[02:03] <roostishaw> where can i find my apache2 'directive'? im trying to install relay...
[02:03] <wastrel> ubuntu is krad
[02:03] <majd> apokryphos, thanks
[02:04] <andi5> roostishaw: look into /etc/apache2
[02:04] <apokryphos> mp3guy: hm, looks fine. What happens if you touch /home/thomas/stuff/somefile ?
[02:04] <r0bby> humala, i'd prefer if you never sent me a memo via memoserv again in your lifetime kthx.
[02:04] <_james_> how can I ping another use from Ubuntu?

[02:04] <diatribe> I was wondering if any of you could maybe help.  When my computer boots, it just goes to a black screen as opposed to showing the usplash screen.  I've reconfigured the splash and linux image pkgs, but its still not working.  any ideas?
[02:04] <andi5> r0bby: i was so lucky.... nobody has sent me one before ;-(
[02:04] <mp3guy> nothing happens apokryphos
[02:04] <r0bby> it's good.
[02:04] <intellig1> Yeah! Ubuntu!
[02:04] <GigaClon> anyone know how do get my mounted drives listed in the Places menu
[02:04] <r0bby> cherish the time you have.
[02:04] <apokryphos> mp3guy: not as root, right?
[02:05] <mp3guy> no
[02:05] <r0bby> I sent a VERY nice message back =)
[02:05] <r0bby> I don't think I'll be getting a reply :D
[02:05] <roostishaw> andi5, so what do i do in there?
[02:05] <apokryphos> mp3guy: weird, it should work then. The file you're getting from the torrent isn't more than 4 gigs, is it?
[02:05] <mp3guy> no
[02:05] <_james_> how can I ping another use from Ubuntu ecery 5 secs?
[02:05] <andi5> roostishaw: well.... read README? ;-)
[02:05] <apokryphos> mp3guy: and what's the *exact* error from ktorrent?
[02:05] <roostishaw> andi5, which one is the 'directive'?
[02:05] <kr4z> GigaClon: if you add the directory as a bookmark it should show up under Places
[02:05] <mp3guy> I'll paste bin it
[02:05] <apokryphos> thanks
[02:05] <ompaul> _james_, ping -i 5 other.host.whatever
[02:06] <GigaClon> kr4z, in Breezy it was there and on the desktop by default
[02:06] <_james_> ompaul: thanks! will that send a ping every 5secs?
[02:06] <andi5> r0bby: why that?
[02:06] <kr4z> ah
[02:06] <kr4z> no idea then
[02:06] <diatribe> I was wondering if any of you could maybe help.  When my computer boots, it just goes to a black screen as opposed to showing the usplash screen.  I've reconfigured the splash and linux image pkgs, but its still not working.  any ideas?
[02:06] <ompaul> _james_, yes
[02:06] <witless> how does it feel to be part of the best damn distribution on the planet?
[02:07] <GigaClon> damn fine
[02:07] <witless> hell yeah
[02:07] <andi5> witless: i am not part of suse...
[02:07] <ompaul> _james_, man ping will give you more options than I could remember #
[02:07] <ompaul> !offtopic
[02:07] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:07] <_james_> ompaul: will that be enough pings to disconnect them from IRC? :)
[02:07] <visik7> I know this is not In Topic but read this http://www.sonjaswette.com/index_en.html
[02:07] <witless> andi5: :-)
[02:07] <diatribe> dumb ass
[02:07] <ompaul> _james_, don't even joke like that
[02:08] <ompaul> diatribe, what
[02:08] <_james_> ompaul: ;)
[02:08] <r0bby> .fn
[02:08] <diatribe> ?
[02:08] <_james_> ompaul: sorry, was jk
[02:08] <_james_> ompaul: im using ping -c50 -i
[02:08] <_james_> ompaul: what does -c do excactly?
[02:08] <johan_> Has anyone had the problem of login screen theme not changing when I tell it to?
[02:08] <roostishaw> andi5, hm... the install page of relay says "Apache isn't configured to read the .htaccess file, you must manualy enter the following into you websites directive."
[02:08] <ompaul> diatribe, to whom was that greeting addressed
[02:08] <apokryphos> mp3guy: what about touch /home/thomas/stuff/torrents/somefile ?
[02:08] <intellig1> How do I find out what my IP is?
[02:08] <ompaul> intellig1, ifconfig
[02:08] <roostishaw> andi5, and then tells me what to add...
[02:08] <andi5> intellig1: www.whatismyip.com
[02:08] <GigaClon> www.whatismyip.com
[02:08] <diatribe> _james_ and it wasnt a greeting
[02:09] <mp3guy> I found out that fat32 doesn't support symlinks...
[02:09] <Apodemos> someone use the latest kernel version?
[02:09] <andi5> mp3guy: oh, yes, that is correct ;-) welcome to fat
[02:09] <apokryphos> mp3guy: weird, I had a slight recollection that it did.
[02:09] <apokryphos> dang
[02:09] <intellig1> I tried accessing Ubuntu from winscp, but it said connection refused.
[02:09] <jrib> intellig1: did you install openssh-server on ubuntu?
[02:09] <apokryphos> mp3guy: weird that ktorrent tries to get around that problem using symlinks, really
[02:10] <Miles_Prower> Hello there
[02:10] <roostishaw> andi5, any ideas?
[02:10] <dli> intellig1, you have to install sshd at your ubuntu side
[02:10] <ompaul> tyrchyus, don't use away messages it more than a channel with 687 logged on need - do it silently with /away Some Message then no disturbance in the channel we all win
[02:10] <intellig1> How do I do that?
[02:10] <WarOfAttrition> obese32 kind of sucks for an OS, might be good for pen drives, cameras and such
[02:10] <diatribe> I was wondering if any of you could maybe help.  When my computer boots, it just goes to a black screen as opposed to showing the usplash screen.  I've reconfigured the splash and linux image pkgs, but its still not working.  any ideas?
[02:10] <tyrchyus> sorry
[02:10] <ompaul> diatribe, check the simlinks fir that
[02:10] <jrib> intellig1: install the openssh-server package with your favorite package manager (synaptic, apt-get, aptitude...)
[02:10] <dli> diatribe, bootsplash? I don't like bootsplash, it slows down the booting process
[02:11] <andi5> roostishaw: did you read README??? it tells you to add local confs to conf.d.... create a file and put your directives there... /etc/init.d/apache2 reload ..tada ;-)
[02:11] <ompaul> diatribe, check the simlinks for that image
[02:11] <kevin> diatribe, I think someone said to do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org
[02:11] <kevin> maybe I was wrong
[02:11] <apokryphos> kevin: xorg
[02:11] <diatribe> hmm ok
[02:11] <roostishaw> andi5, what is the filename? the new one i mean
[02:11] <andi5> roostishaw: arbitrary
[02:11] <kevin> apokryphos, woops
[02:11] <Miles_Prower> I have a silly question: i'd need to find a computer connected to my wifi hotspot... I got the IP adress but i'd like to find out the physical location. Any clue on how to do this?
[02:12] <ompaul> intellig1, install openssh-server on ubuntu and install putty on that other thing
[02:13] <dli> Miles_Prower, if you don't want to share, just block it :(
[02:13] <mp3guy> found a solution apokryphos, for azureus, in options>files "incremental file creation (required for fat32 under linux)"
[02:13] <dli> Miles_Prower, theoretically, you can call police
[02:13] <_james_> ompaul: how can I get xchat to hide any attempts to show my IP when someone types /dns _james_ ?
[02:13] <andi5> Miles_Prower: physical location? mini-gps? ;-) ... or better: galileo
[02:13] <apokryphos> mp3guy: nice
[02:13] <Miles_Prower> I have no problem with sharing, I just want to walk to the guy and say "hello" :p
[02:13] <ompaul> get a cloak
[02:13] <apokryphos> mp3guy: if there's no option like that on ktorrent, I really recommend filing a bug report
[02:13] <apokryphos> mp3guy: http://bugs.kde.org
[02:14] <_james_> ompaul: when I type /dns ompaul it says: Host ubuntu/member/ompaul not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)!  How can I get mine to do the same please?
[02:14] <aragogando> Hi I am trying to run the live cd and my usb mouse doesn't work but on FC which is installed on the computer it works just fine.  Any ideas?
[02:14] <spades> Miles_Prower go around the place acting like publishers clearing house winner and make them confirm how theyre connected to the net
[02:14] <andi5> Miles_Prower: redirect port 80 for him ;-)
[02:14] <_james_> ompaul: how do I get a cloak like you have?
[02:14] <ompaul> _james_, get a cloak - check it out on www.freenode.net
[02:14] <WarOfAttrition> bootsplash isn't that slow - it looks nice
[02:14] <apokryphos> !cloak
[02:14] <ubotu> I know nothing about cloak
[02:14] <_james_> ompaul: can I get it for Breezy?
[02:14] <dli> Miles_Prower, not easily for most wireless routers (not flexible enough)
[02:14] <apokryphos> !hostmask
[02:14] <ubotu> To get your own hostmask cloak, read this http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks
[02:14] <Miles_Prower> spades, lol
[02:15] <Miles_Prower> Yeah dli, his ping cannot even give me a clue to about the distance
[02:15] <_james_> ompaul: can a beginner install it?
[02:15] <Miles_Prower> It's like, totally randomn
[02:15] <ompaul> _james_, to get this one you need to be marked as a ubuntu member on launchpad - there is a whole process around it - found on the agenda page for the Community Council on the wiki
[02:15] <dli> Miles_Prower, use your wireless as the router, (hostap), you can route that IP to a default page, say, " Hello, call me to register"
[02:15] <Miles_Prower> andi5, redirect port 80 to my comp with a webpage saying "hi" could be fun yeah
[02:16] <ompaul> _james_, it is not installed by you - it is set up by the people in freenode
[02:16] <apokryphos> _james_: anyone is entitled to an @unaffiliated/something cloak though (see the link above)
[02:16] <Miles_Prower> Hm i'll need to install a webserver on my PC for this then, lol
[02:16] <andi5> lol
[02:17] <ompaul> eternaljoy, apokryphos has a better answer -= the url is www.freenode.com
[02:17] <andi5> write a static one with python ;-)
[02:17] <eternaljoy> ompaul:  ok
[02:17] <aragogando> Does anyone have any ideas why my mouse working in Fedora Core, but not Ubuntu?
[02:17] <Miles_Prower> My last programming experience was on a C128 and i was freakin young, I have no clue about python ^^;
[02:18] <andi5> aragogando: does you mouse wear a red .... hat?
[02:18] <intellig1> I just downloaded the drivers for my graphics card, an nVivida TNT2. It tells me in the system documentation to type sudo nvidia-glx config enable, but that doesn't do anything.
[02:18] <albatrozz> Can anyone help me with an installation issue?
[02:18] <intellig1> It says "sudo: nvidia-glx: command not found"
[02:18] <aragogando> lol nope wears many hats
[02:18] <skrummm> agghhhhh
[02:18] <skrummm> didn't work
[02:18] <gumpish> ok, so I have PXE boot working and have the installer running on the target machine - how do I get the installer to use the CD-ROM in the DHCP/TFTP server as an installation source?
[02:19] <jrib> intellig1: it should say 'nvidia-glx-config' not 'nvidia-glx config'
[02:19] <WarOfAttrition> intellig1: I'm not sure but I think the linux nvidia driver doesn't support that far back
[02:19] <skrummm> alright, i need to repair xserver, how do i go about doing this?
[02:19] <andi5> aragogando: one definite way is always to copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf.... :) ... ok, correct font paths and alike, but i rocked a lot of distros this way :)
[02:19] <intellig1> Then it is an error in the documentation.
[02:19] <^richiefrich> albatrozz ?
[02:19] <intellig1> It does.
[02:19] <paradise> ompaul: will it work with xchat 2.4.4?
[02:19] <WarOfAttrition> I tried it on an old nvidia vanta card, and the drivers don't support it
[02:19] <Miles_Prower> Hm port 80 's already forwarded to another comp > VNC Oo
[02:19] <aragogando> It is a plain jane USB mouse and currently have FC installed on this box but heard how great ubuntu was so wanted to check it out, so have the live cd
[02:19] <cougem> hey grubs
[02:19] <Edvinas> how to change picture size through "gimp"
[02:20] <skrummm> edv: right click, image, scale image
[02:20] <^richiefrich> Edvinas in the menu
[02:20] <roostishaw> how do i install php?
[02:20] <intellig1> I got an error, hold on...
[02:20] <andi5> aragogando: strange, i did not expect ubuntu to have problems with mice...
[02:20] <^richiefrich> sudo apt-get install php
[02:20] <^richiefrich> roostishaw  sudo apt-get install php
[02:20] <apokryphos> roostishaw: /msg ubotu php
[02:20] <ompaul> paradise, it is nothing to do with the client it is server side
[02:21] <intellig1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/16903
[02:21] <roostishaw> ^richiefrich, 'package not found'
[02:21] <skrummm> !xserver
[02:21] <ubotu> I know nothing about xserver
[02:21] <skrummm> agh
[02:21] <anosa> i have 1 onboard soundcard (ac97) and i have creative SB soundcard on my system, the first one is working but the other one is not working , can somebody help me.. please
[02:21] <^richiefrich> roostishaw  sudo apt-get search  php
[02:21] <Miles_Prower> I wonder if my laptop's built-in wifi (Centrino) can act as a hotspot?
[02:21] <apokryphos> ^richiefrich: apt-cache
[02:21] <andi5> anosa: are they muted?
[02:21] <jrib> intellig1: did you read what it says?
[02:21] <aragogando> okay thanks, guess i will hunt up a ps2 mouse and see if it likes that better
[02:21] <roostishaw> sudo apt-get install php5
[02:22] <roostishaw> thanks though
[02:22] <intellig1> Yes. Did I understand what it says? No.
[02:22] <albatrozz> I'm trying to install to a single drive on an IDE channel, but Ubuntu tries to put grub on the boot sector of one of my RAID drives.  How do I get it to ignore those drives and just put the loader on the same drive as the installation?
[02:22] <^richiefrich> ahh there u go
[02:22] <anosa> no,
[02:22] <andi5> aragogando: i am sorry, but maybe that helps :)
[02:22] <anosa> i'm now using my ac97
[02:22] <F0LL0W3R> anosa try to check the bios to disable the built-in one
[02:22] <skrummm> apok, know how to repair/reinstall xserver?
[02:22] <aragogando> just figured i would see if there were any known issues before i wasted a bunch of time on this.... ;-)
[02:22] <andi5> anosa: so what does "does not work" mean? it contains exactly as many information as if you said... it fails ;-)
[02:22] <eternaljoy> hi
[02:23] <andi5> s/many/much/
[02:23] <anosa> but my creative won't work when i plug my speaker cable into it
 yea how could two sound drive work at the same time :)
[02:23] <jrib> intellig1: /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the config file that needs to be edited.  The program believes that yours has been modified, you can change the driver from nv to nvidia manually by editing the file with a text editor
[02:23] <anosa> i mean i can't hear any sound from my creastive SB
 should only one works
[02:23] <paradise> ompaul: I did what instructions said, and linked 2 nicks etc, yet its not working! Any advice?
[02:24] <howy424> hey folks, I'm back and now using ubuntu!
[02:24] <intellig1> How should I edit it, jrib?
[02:24] <anosa> yes, but i want my creative SB soundcard the one which works
[02:24] <andi5> anosa: well, one application will only play to once specified sound card by default, i guess
[02:24] <jrib> intellig1: there should be a line that says Driver nv, just change that to Driver nvidia
[02:24] <ompaul> paradise, it is a freenode issue not a ubuntu one - may I suggest that you ask in ##anything
[02:25] <intellig1> Ok.
[02:25] <paradise> ompaul: you may not
[02:25] <ompaul> paradise, then I will say your offtopic for here
[02:25] <F0LL0W3R> anosa so goto bios and on-board sound-drive make the value disabled
[02:26] <anosa> F0LL0W3R: anosa so goto bios and on-board sound-drive make the value disabled >> i'll check it first, thnx a lot
[02:26] <Pitersburgs> damn, finally Skype 1.3 for Linux with ALSA
[02:26] <niki> what's the console command to list a directories contents, but not files....like to make it only list the subdirectories of the current directory
 any time sure :)
[02:26] <anosa> ittekimasu...
[02:26] <davidmccabe> If "regenerating the font cache" has been going on for at least fifteen minutes and it's not using any CPU or IO, does that mean it's toast?
[02:26] <ompaul> Pitersburgs, in a deb yet?
[02:26] <BHSPitMonkey_> hi
[02:26] <Pitersburgs> http://www.skype.com/download/skype/linux/13beta.html
[02:26] <hedonistic> Anyone willing to help me troubleshoot wireless problems?
[02:26] <BHSPitMonkey_> when I return my laptop from Suspend mode, the display shows vertical brown stripes, and the system is completely frozen
[02:26] <andi5> niki: one way: "find . -type d"
[02:27] <BHSPitMonkey_> thoughts?
[02:27] <paradise> ompaul: :)
[02:27] <mp3guy> all my columns in azureus are now broken
[02:27] <F0LL0W3R> why kopete doesnt support audio conversation ?
[02:27] <wastrel> BHSPitMonkey_:  what video card do you have?
[02:27] <spades> BHSPitMonkey_ try hitting alt f7 or ctrl alt f7 and see if it needed to jump back into gnome
[02:27] <niki> andi5, i only want a list of the directories in the current directories, not all recursive directories...know a way to do that?
[02:27] <apokryphos> F0LL0W3R: because they don't have many active developers atm unfortunately
[02:27] <niki> like all folders in that folder
 aha ic so is there any progrman in ubuntu make that stuff ?
[02:28] <ryanakca> is there a list of good linux games?
[02:28] <intellig1> It is saying I do not have permission to alter the file.
[02:28] <andi5> niki: i see, gimme a moment
[02:28] <BHSPitMonkey_> wastrel: an intel one (typical of dell)
[02:28] <apokryphos> F0LL0W3R: well, you can use skype.
[02:28] <BHSPitMonkey_> spades: tried that, and killing X, and everything... system completely unresponsive as I said
[02:28] <jrib> niki: what andi5 said but with -maxdepth 1 I think, maybe 0?
[02:29] <F0LL0W3R> apokryphos but i want it for msn contacts :)
[02:29] <andi5> jrib: thanks, i just remembered :)
[02:29] <apokryphos> F0LL0W3R: I *think* gaim 2.0 beta has that, but I'm not sure.
[02:29] <andi5> i guess 1
[02:29] <F0LL0W3R> apokryphos oic btw thx alot i will try :0
[02:30] <niki> jrib, that works...now a way to make that only show nonhidden files?  :D
[02:30] <hedonistic> I have a Dell E1505 laptop with a BCM4311 wireless card, downloaded a version of ndiswrapper that was different from the one in synaptic, network manager now recognizes wlan0 (active), and when I click on the network manager icon, I see my network SSID with a full signal bar, I try to connect, and no connection materializes (router is set to no security atm, but I've tried WPA and WEP without success as well) - Any suggestions?
[02:30] <jrib> intellig1: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf   <-- be sure to make a backup first, because if something goes wrong you will be without X
[02:30] <brett_> Can anyone tell me how to start and manage an FTP server?  I just got FTPD server with synaptic, but it's not in any of th e menus
[02:30] <apokryphos> niki: pipe it into grep -v with './.'
[02:31] <andi5> niki: find . -name '[^.] *' -type d -maxdepth 1
[02:31] <NickGarvey> brett_: I don't know if you can manage that from a GUI
[02:31] <Adam_G> allo.. anyone familiar with grub? I can get to the grub shell, but grub-install doesn't work
[02:31] <NickGarvey> brett_: all ftp servers I have dealt with are CLI only
[02:31] <spades> hedonistic have you tried doing it via a terminal incase something is not working with the network manager?  iwconfig wlan0 essid $name and then dhclient wlan0
[02:32] <brett_> I'll start hitting the wiki...  can't be too tough
[02:32] <hedonistic> Yes I have, I'll try it once more though
[02:32] <apokryphos> !doesn't work
[02:32] <ubotu> Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[02:32] <intellig1> Now what, just restart?
[02:32] <Adam_G> ahh... got to change a tire... bbl
[02:32] <alexicon> hey people, is there a LAME encoder for [k] ubuntu
[02:33] <andi5> alexicon: you mean a graphical frontend?
[02:33] <alexicon> ive got the kaudiocreator
[02:33] <alexicon> b ut it cant make an mp3
[02:33] <mjr> alexicon, in multiverse
[02:33] <jrib> intellig1: just restart X with ctrl-alt-backspace, that will close everything so save what you are working on first
[02:33] <alexicon> ok
[02:33] <alexicon> ffmpeg??
[02:33] <apokryphos> alexicon: huh? kaudiocreator can make mp3s just fine
[02:33] <mjr> in uni- or multiverse, don't recall
[02:34] <wastrel> niki:  you can do ls -F | grep \/$
[02:34] <andi5> alexicon: so what is wrong with the package lame?
[02:34] <spades> hedonistic also does dmesg have any conflicts at the end with anything wlan0 related as well, might be the driver or something
[02:34] <alexicon> hrm
[02:34] <alexicon> it just errored on the encoding
[02:34] <niki> wastrel, that works as well!  how do i make that a script so i can do it with one word?
[02:34] <alexicon> not giving anymore details really
[02:35] <luke> Now I've installed XGL and Compiz, XMMS looks really wierd. Any ideas please??
[02:35] <andi5> wastrel: yes, but if you start using it in a script you will want to remove the trailing slashes again and then you have a pipe again,... no easier then :)
[02:35] <wastrel> i dunno from script :]
[02:35] <tiglionabbit> I just installed ubuntu dapper and I can't get sound from anything!  Sound worked fine in previous versions
[02:35] <tiglionabbit> can anyone help me?
[02:35] <alexicon> lol tiglionabbit i had the same problem. no one could help me
[02:36] <tiglionabbit> =[

[02:36] <andi5> ubotu, ubotu, does not work :)
[02:36] <ubotu> I know nothing about ubotu, does not work :)
[02:36] <alexicon> Kubuntu is awesome!!!!!!!!
[02:36] <alexicon> the install was so easy!!
[02:36] <bthornton> Is WPA2 compatible with 802.11g ?
[02:36] <alexicon> yeah says the encoder is not found... i just got ffmpeg tho
[02:36] <alexicon> hrm
[02:36] <witless> i don't like kde much
[02:36] <tiglionabbit> well it's easy for ubuntu too, but what's up with this-- why doesn't my sound work anymore?
[02:37] <alexicon> tiglionabbit: nothing worked when i updated to dapper
[02:37] <alexicon> i gave up on that install and just went fresh

[02:39] <andi5> tiglionabbit: what is wrong with "lame"?
[02:39] <alexicon> cheers
[02:39] <tiglionabbit> !info lame
[02:39] <ubotu> lame: LAME Ain't an MP3 Encoder. In repository multiverse, is optional. Version 3.96.1-1 (dapper), package size 222 kB, installed size 620 kB
[02:39] <Paladine> Bono is an uttermoron
[02:39] <FunkyDiscoMan> yup but the twat caused half the problem with his apple ads
[02:40] <tiglionabbit> oh, it's called that now?  okay
[02:40] <gnomefreak> Paladine: please bring that convo to #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:40] <alexicon> indeed there is no more lame
[02:40] <alexicon> oh well
[02:40] <andi5> alexicon: and you apt-get update?
[02:40] <alexicon> i added the other repositories and adept doesnt see lame either
[02:41] <alexicon> only thing thats close is toolame but thats mpeg2
[02:41] <tiglionabbit> eh adept is pretty bad
[02:41] <alexicon> i like adept a lot more than synaptic :P
[02:41] <Tape> is there a decent alternative to GAIM?
[02:41] <ryanakca> is there a list of good linux games?
[02:41] <alexicon> kopete Tape
[02:41] <Tape> thanks
[02:42] <tiglionabbit> alexicon: why?  It's horrible.  It doesn't manage dependencies well at all and breaks things
[02:42] <alexicon> heh well only got it today
[02:42] <alexicon> on the whole i LOVE kubuntu
[02:42] <yfox> hello :3
[02:42] <alexicon> where ubuntu was constantly falling to pieces on me
[02:42] <tiglionabbit> get synaptic if you don't want to break things
[02:42] <andi5> alexicon: falling to pieces?
[02:42] <yfox> anyone friendly willing to help me get my repositories right
[02:42] <tiglionabbit> alexicon: um, how?
[02:42] <alexicon> that dist-update for one
[02:42] <alexicon> broke absolutely everything
[02:43] <pjfc> does anyone know how I determine what version of xserver I am running?
[02:43] <alexicon> anyway i get loads of broken packages with synaptic as well
[02:43] <alexicon> i prefer qt loads more than gtk anyway
[02:43] <andi5> alexicon: you mean dist-upgrade?
[02:43] <alexicon> can get a lot more information from adept about each package as well
[02:43] <tiglionabbit> alexicon: how could you get broken packages with synaptic?
[02:43] <alexicon> yeah andi5
[02:43] <alexicon> i have no idea tiglionabbit but i got them :P
[02:43] <tiglionabbit> alexicon: all of that information is available in synaptic as well
[02:43] <tiglionabbit> try right-clicking
[02:43] <roostishaw> what command do i use to install mysql?
[02:43] <alexicon> dpkg -f upgrade is my best friend
[02:43] <alexicon> lol

[02:44] <roostishaw> there are too many choises in synaptic
[02:44] <alexicon> than ks for your help anyway
[02:44] <yfox> in which repository can i find the package madwifi-source
[02:44] <andi5> alexicon: there is no substantial difference between kubuntu and ubuntu.... dist-upgrade _should_ work equally good in both distros, imho
[02:44] <alexicon> the install for kubuntu was brilliant!
[02:44] <tiglionabbit> uh okay.  Anyway, sound!  How do I make it work?
[02:44] <alexicon> anyway i gota run byebye
[02:44] <albatrozz> Can anyone tell me how to configure which partition GRUB installs to during installation?  Or, alternatively, how to install GRUB after the fact, from the Live CD, since Ubuntu is already installed.
[02:44] <yfox> help help help :(
[02:45] <tiglionabbit> albatrozz: grub should install to the partition marked as /boot
[02:45] <pjfc> yfox: help with what?
[02:45] <yfox> in which repository can i find the package madwifi-source :(
[02:45] <tiglionabbit> !info madwifi-source

[02:45] <paradise> anyone help me set up a cloak?
[02:46] <andi5> yfox: why do you need the source?
[02:46] <yfox> trying to install madwifi-ng :/

[02:47] <smacky_wolf> Hey guys. I'm trying to watch a protected DVD, and when I go to use the .sh script for libdvdread, it tells me no .deb is available.  (D410 perferably?) i can't get it to hibernate/suspend properly.. after i power them on, the X hangs up
[02:48] <smacky_wolf> pjfc, I am
[02:48] <paradise> how can I install the latest xchat for breexy?
[02:48] <smacky_wolf> paradise: Did you want the one in the repos, or a nEW xchat?
[02:48] <thomaswebb> yfox, i am not sure what you mean?
[02:48] <hedonistic> I have a Dell E1505 laptop with a BCM4311 wireless card, downloaded a version of ndiswrapper that was different from the one in synaptic, network manager now recognizes wlan0 (active), and when I click on the network manager icon, I see my network SSID with a full signal bar, I try to connect, and no connection materializes (router is set to no security atm, but I've tried WPA and WEP without success as well) - Any suggestions?
[02:49] <Expedia> Good bye everyone!!! :)
[02:49] <yfox> trying to do the Installation (with module-assistant) on http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/Distro/Debian/MadWifi thomaswebb
[02:49] <pjfc> knome: after update installed the kernel 2.6.15-25-386, xserver won't load can use vesa to get it to load. nvidia still works with earlier kernel. Any ideas?
[02:49] <paradise> smacky_wolf: whats diff?
[02:49] <vader1102> hedonistic, try doing this, sudo dhclient wlan0 and see what happens
[02:49] <paradise> smacky_wolf: how can I install the latest xchat for breexy?
[02:50] <Knome> pjfc: nope not now sorry
[02:50] <andi5> paradise: well, where can i download breexy?
[02:50] <pjfc> Knome: thanks.  Are you using that kernel version?
[02:50] <paradise> andi5: troll
[02:50] <smacky_wolf> Paradise, do you actually want a newer version not available in the repos, or do you just wnat xchat?
[02:50] <andi5> ahh, you mean breezy?
[02:50] <paradise> can someone tell me how I can install the latest xchat? im using 2.4.4 atm
[02:50] <paradise> smacky_wolf: whats diff?
[02:51] <Knome> pjfc: I haven't paid attention to that actually
[02:51] <andi5> paradise: compile it in your home directory
[02:51] <smacky_wolf> paradise: sudo apt-get install xchat
[02:51] <Flannel> andi5: paradise to get the latest, you'll probably have to upgrade to dapper.  Each release of ubuntu sticks to a particular software release
[02:51] <Flannel> paradise: unless you want to compile yourself.
[02:51] <hedonistic> vader1102: The last two lines return -> No DHCPOFFERS received. No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
[02:51] <spades> i got xchat 2.6.0 on breezy
[02:51] <smacky_wolf> flannel: i don't think he really wants a different version to the rpo
[02:52] <spades> might be in a diff repo
[02:52] <tiglionabbit> =[  soundblaster not working.  Anyone?
[02:52] <pjfc> knome: perhaps for a later conversation...check your menu.lst in the grub directory or take note next time you boot....it should tell you which kernel.
[02:52] <vader1102> hedonistic, I have the BCM4318 and have to use the bcmfwcutter package
[02:52] <paradise> smacky_wolf: when I type sudo apt-get install xchat it says newvset version already
[02:52] <andi5> dapper = 2.6.1, latest = 2.6.4, you are never on the bleeding edge
[02:53] <paradise> Flannel: how can I complile it myself?
[02:53] <karl> !azureus
[02:53] <ubotu> azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AzureusHowTo
[02:53] <marciofleury> good night for everybody!!! I'm new in linux and ubuntu and i have installed Ubuntu 5.10. What i have to do to update to the 6.06 version without doing other installation?? I can only substitute my source.list?????
[02:53] <Flannel> paradise: download the source, and compile it.
[02:53] <paradise> andi5: listen here troll! where can I get 2.6.4?
[02:53] <apokryphos> marciofleury: please read the FAQ
[02:53] <smacky_wolf> Hey guys. I'm trying to watch a protected DVD, and when I go to use the .sh script for libdvdread, it tells me no .deb is available. I use 64bit arch, so what can I do, as it just hangs and fails to do anything
[02:53] <hedonistic> vader, I followed a post on ubuntu forums to do just that and didn't have any luck...Network manager recognizes the card, the wifi led is on, ndiswrapper is installed, I just can't connect
[02:54] <andi5> paradise: the question is more why you need the latest version? are you sure 2.6.1 is not enough? and please, stop naming me a troll.... i tell you... google for xchat, click the first and goto download...
[02:54] <vader1102> what does dmesg say hedonistic
[02:54] <yfox> can anyone help me install madwifi-ng on xubuntu ?
[02:54] <vader1102> dies it give a link not ready?
[02:54] <marciofleury> thanks apokryphos!!! i'll try...
[02:54] <Paladine> smacky, there is a 64bit package for libdvdcss2
[02:54] <andi5> yfox: before i forget it... maybe #ubuntu-kernel can
[02:54] <yfox> okk
[02:54] <apokryphos> !faq > marciofleury
[02:55] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, that link?
[02:55] <hedonistic> vader, wlan0: no IPv6 routers present is the only relevant return
[02:55] <kaot> hedonistic: stupid question, and probably ineffective given known bcm driver troubles, but:  did you reboot the router?  maybe it's just....burped.
[02:55] <marciofleury> !faq
[02:55] <ubotu> faq is http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommonQuestions Official documentation is at http://help.ubuntu.com IRC FAQ: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRCResourcePage
[02:55] <hedonistic> kaot, many times
[02:55] <kaot> k, just figgered i'd ask  :/
[02:55] <spades> hedonistic does ndiswrapper -l return driver and hardware present?
[02:55] <Paladine> smacky, I can't remember where I got it sec
[02:56] <hedonistic> spades, yes
[02:56] <paradise> andi5: I need latest to use cloaking
[02:56] <vader1102> hedonistic, what I have to do is sudo iwconfig eth1 ap any....
[02:56] <[Nige] > anyone know of a good dsl client?
[02:56] <paradise> andi5: 2.4.4 doesnt work with cloak
[02:56] <[Nige] > well adslclient
[02:56] <[Nige] > :)
[02:56] <vader1102> then I have to do the sudo dhclient eth1
[02:56] <andi5> kaot: ask these questions.... was not long ago the last time someone phoned me and asked why the internet does not work.... well, after you switch the usb port from wlan receiver to the camera, you should switch back sometime :)
[02:56] <kaot> lol
[02:56] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, search synaptic for libdvdcss2
[02:57] <spades> hedonistic does iwlist wlan0 scanning find your ap?
[02:57] <Paladine> it is maintained by Christian Marillat<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[02:57] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, thanks
[02:57] <paradise> andi5: im at: http://xchat.org/download/ , but which one I get for breezy?
[02:57] <andi5> paradise: argggh, i forgot that you talked about breezy (you said breexy, do you remember).... download the source and follow the instructions (INSTALL or such), there is info
[02:57] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, I have it already
[02:57] <hedonistic> vader, i don't have an eth1, I should replace that with wlan0, right?
[02:57] <andi5> paradise: compiling is nontrivial
[02:58] <vader1102> yes hedonistic
[02:58] <paradise> andi5: define nontrivial
[02:58] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, what you using to play the dvd with?
[02:58] <Flannel> paradise: mind, however, that you might have to tweak the install a bit to get it to play nice with ubuntu, and it might not integrate as well as the virgin package.
[02:58] <paradise> andi5: do I get xchat-2.6.4.tar.bz2  ?
[02:58] <pjfc> yfox: have you tried http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/FirstTimeHowTo
[02:58] <yfox> will have a look
[02:58] <paradise> Flannel: lets leave the virgins out of this ;)
[02:58] <Paladine> I can only get css dvds to play in xine and mplayer, so try one of those
[02:58] <paradise> Flannel: do I get xchat-2.6.4.tar.bz2  ?
[02:58] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, Xine. I tried the others I have and they failed, too
[02:59] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, I had funky problems too, I got the solution from the ubu forums, but I can't remember what the solution was
[02:59] <hedonistic> spades, whats an AP? (sorry I'm new to this)
[02:59] <spades> hedonistic access point, your router
[02:59] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, OK, thanks. =3
[02:59] <vader1102> Access Point
[03:00] <smax> what program/play can play .asx format ?
[03:00] <hedonistic> spades, yes
[03:00] <smax> err player
[03:00] <Adam_G> okay, anyone familiar with Grub care to walk me through an install from the grub shell? Grub-install doesn't work and the docs are very esoteric...
[03:00] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, mplayer kept telling me I didn't have a css decrypter
[03:00] <[Nige] > !adsl
[03:00] <ubotu> Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ADSLPPPoE
[03:00] <spades> hedonistic also is your router set to give out dhcp and have enough open slots to offer?
[03:00] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, XINE does the same, and opthjers just creash
[03:00] <Paladine> there is a solution in the forums
[03:00] <Paladine> lemmie see if I can find it
[03:01] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, nvm, I can get it
[03:01] <apokryphos> Adam_G: have you read the information at /msg ubotu grub (they provide all the necessary information)
[03:01] <albatrozz> er, what's the password to su as root from the live cd?
[03:01] <apokryphos> albatrozz: please read the FAQ
[03:01] <Adam_G> no, I'll do that
[03:02] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, took me hours to ix the problem, wish I could remember what it was
[03:02] <andi5> paradise: i was searching for the unicode character for "not" ;-) ... well, download the source, then untar it (fileroller) somewhere in your /home/$user, then goto that directory, fakeroot ./configure ..... watch what it complains about... you will probably need build-essentials and libgnomeui-2.0-dev or such ... if you run it without errors, make and make install (with fakeroot), then check  "which xchat" ... should return /usr/local/bin/xchat
[03:02] <Paladine> but it was really annoying
[03:02] <kaot> albatrozz: there isn't one.  anything requiring root privs you just sudo.
[03:02] <paradise> andi5:  sudo apt-get build-dep xchat ; apt-get -b source xchat;
[03:02] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, sounds like a lot of problems 64bhit has =/
[03:02] <andi5> paradise: oh, bullshit, sorry..... only fakeroot before you "make install"
[03:02] <paradise> andi5: sudo apt-get build-dep xchat ; apt-get -b source xchat;
[03:02] <hedonistic> vader, your suggestion did not work
[03:02] <albatrozz> ok thanks
[03:02] <clparker> How can I make vino vnc server startup automatically without needing to login?
[03:02] <Adam_G> apokryphos: just read the howto in the /msg ubotu grub- that's exactly what's not working
[03:03] <Paladine> smacky, yeah it has caused be a few issues, finally getting the creases ironed out though
[03:03] <tiglionabbit> albatrozz: instead of saying su root, you can sudo -s
[03:03] <andi5> paradise: your decision .... rebuild 2.4.4, do whatever you want
[03:03] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, which other issues did you have?
[03:03] <albatrozz> Thanks :)
[03:03] <apokryphos> Adam_G: not working means almost nothing if you're not more specific ;-)
[03:03] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, the only problem I think I have now is stupid locale warning with Xlib
[03:03] <paradise> andi5: I download from source
[03:03] <apokryphos> tiglionabbit: sudo -i is the recommended method
[03:03] <hedonistic> spades, yes it is, I can connect fine in windows
[03:03] <Adam_G> "could not find device for /boot
[03:03] <tiglionabbit> oh, okay
[03:03] <Adam_G> but the grubb shell does work
[03:04] <andi5> paradise: maybe you should really dist-upgrade to dapper?
[03:04] <fdsd> Hey guys, I want to take every pkg out of ubuntu except what is needed to boot and run mount, awk, the command line utils and bash.. Anyone know how I can do this?
[03:04] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, the "locale is not supported by Xlib" warnings
[03:04] <apokryphos> Adam_G: ok, please pastebin the output of sudo fdisk -l
[03:04] <paradise> andi5: I downloaded xchat-2.6.4.tar.bz2!  what next?
[03:04] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, Bite it. XD. I had major problems with EVERYTHING before I went to dapper. Sound never worked, video was screwed, and countless other things
[03:04] <Flannel> fdsd: install the server install, it only has ubuntu-base and ubuntu-minimal, then you can work down from there.
[03:04] <paradise> andi5: I cant, using a modem
[03:04] <spades> hedonistic have you tried setting a static ip on wlan0, disabling eth0, and pinging the router?
[03:04] <spades> this would kick you off irc tho
[03:04] <paradise> andi5: I downloaded xchat-2.6.4.tar.bz2 and extracted, next?
[03:04] <andi5> Paladine: beware, write UTF-8 in your lang env variables, as xlib does not know the abbs utf8 and alike, glibc uses
[03:04] <Adam_G> kk, doing now
[03:05] <fdsd> Flannel, do you know if there is a ubuntu livecd for ppc like that?
[03:05] <apokryphos> fdsd: there is, yes.
[03:05] <andi5> paradise: ./configure
[03:05] <Flannel> fdsd: a liveCD? what?
[03:05] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, sond is almost working properly for me now, still a few issues with the surround51 device in certain apps
[03:05] <fdsd> apokryphos, where can I get it?
[03:05] <Flannel> fdsd: Why do you want a liveCD?
[03:05] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, I had some serious problems with openoffice.org too
[03:05] <fdsd> Flannel, I am looking ot make my own live cd with no X11, just command line
[03:06] <fdsd> apokryphos, where can I find it
[03:06] <apokryphos> fdsd: sorry, I thought you just meant ubuntu live cd for ppc
[03:06] <hedonistic> spades, I'm not sure how to set a static ip on wlan0...
[03:06] <smacky_wolf> Paladine, everything magically "Just Worked" in dapper. There's somthing broken with my OpenOffice, too. It keeps whining about some plugins not working
[03:06] <paradise> andi5: ok! its doing something now./
[03:06] <andi5> fdsd: cannot you boot the live cd with parameter single? (i do not know)
[03:06] <Paladine> smacky_wolf, the problem with OOo was the pango stuff
[03:06] <Flannel> fdsd: oh.  Gotcha.  not an install.  Um, Theres a wiki page, about rolling your own liveCD, I believe.  But yeah, server installs ubuntubase and ubuntu-standard.  That's basically what youre looking for.  Just as a liveCD
[03:06] <paradise> andi5: do I type make now?
