[11:22] <gogeta> a cd with 4.6 gigs of storage
[11:22] <gogeta> lol
[11:22] <kornerr> it only says 'insert cdrom'
[11:22] <gogeta> i say bug
[11:22] <kornerr> what bug?
[11:23] <gogeta> it should see it as a insterted cd rom
[11:23] <gogeta> unless it looks elsewhere
[11:24] <kornerr> df -hT: /media/windata/ISOs2/Ubuntu Feisty 7.04/7_04_dvd4.iso
[11:24] <kornerr>            iso9660    3,2G  3,2G     0 100% /media/UbuntuRep/d4
[11:24] <gogeta> have you tryed mounting it to media cdrom0
[11:24] <gogeta> trick it into thinking its in your real drive
[11:25] <kornerr> but that doesn't solve anything
[11:25] <kornerr> atp-cdrom that is
[11:25] <kornerr> however it works
[11:25] <gogeta> if it looks tere it does
[11:25] <kornerr> i need all 4 dvds at once
[11:25] <gogeta> there
[11:25] <kornerr> cuz packages are on all 4
[11:25] <kornerr> so each requires another
[11:25] <gogeta> well if that works thats 1 step salved
[11:26] <kornerr> lol
[11:26] <kornerr> it won't be able to install
[11:26] <fop> hello
[11:26] <gogeta> have you tryed making cdrom 1 2 3 4 in the mdea dire and mounting there
[11:26] <savvas> you could merge them i think
[11:26] <fop> i have a quick question for anybody willing to help me
[11:26] <kornerr> hm
[11:26] <gogeta> i bet it looks in meda dir
[11:26] <kornerr> savvas: how?
[11:27] <Frogzoo> fop: congratulations
[11:27] <gogeta> cdrom1 and so on and mounting there
[11:27] <fop> jee thanks
[11:27] <kornerr> :/
[11:27] <kornerr> hm
[11:27] <fop> anyone know how to move the garbage bin to the dektop?
[11:28] <gogeta> or you can make a script to swap out the isos on cdrom 0
[11:28] <gogeta> when you need to change
[11:28] <Frogzoo> fop: it's a metacity option within gnome editor
[11:28] <kornerr> wait, lemme check if that works
[11:29] <erUSUL> fop: open the gconf-editor and go to the nautilus section
[11:29] <Frogzoo> erUSUL: nautilus not metacity? ok
[11:30] <erUSUL> Frogzoo: yep
[11:30] <gogeta> they dont always need to be in the drive anyways only when your using them
[11:30] <savvas> fop: yes, you make a launcher for trash:
[11:30] <erUSUL> fop: go to  apps>nautilus>desktop and  check trash_icon_visible
[11:30] <zevah> hii
[11:31] <fop_> kk
[11:32] <kornerr> nah, doesn't work
[11:32] <gogeta> so cdrom0 is the only working one
[11:33] <gogeta> it has to only look at real drives in the script
[11:33] <hendo> cant download vmplayer why
[11:33] <gogeta> only thing i can think of
[11:33] <kornerr> i need a help with rep
[11:33] <kornerr> that is the only solution
[11:34] <gogeta> well if cdrom0 works you can just swap the isos as nedded
[11:34] <hendo> i downloaded vmplayer wont open
[11:36] <hendo> i have me windows on my ide harddrive and i want to run it in unbuntu
[11:37] <kornerr> hendo: use virtual box
[11:37] <erUSUL> !vmware | hendo
[11:37] <ubotu> hendo: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[11:37] <gogeta> kormerr you try a tools called aptoncd
[11:37] <hendo> okay
[11:37] <Morten_> !ifort

[11:37] <gogeta> http://onlyubuntu.blogspot.com/2007/04/create-backup-of-installed-packages.html
[11:38] <gogeta> that tool adds respo disk

[11:42] <Ornedan> What system does Ubuntu use for hibernation?
[11:45] <gogeta> komerr hears a guide
[11:45] <gogeta> http://www.howtoforge.com/dvd_images_of_ubuntu_repositories
[11:46] <slapfaceware> should i install install cd or alternate cd
[11:46] <kornerr> crap
[11:47] <kornerr> it asks for cdrom too
[11:47] <kornerr> and when i try to use iso
[11:47] <gogeta> try that guide
[11:47] <gogeta> it shows everything from building to adding them
[11:47] <booster> hey guys.....im new to linux...can anyone tell me how to change a Usplash screen,.....if so what  kind of files should i be looking for??
[11:47] <__ZiGgy__> How do i unzip ????
[11:47] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Depends on your system. If it is able to run the install (live) cd that us that one.
[11:48] <erUSUL> __ZiGgy__: unzip file.zip or use file-roller
[11:48] <slapfaceware> nbkr, so which one should i get
[11:48] <Frogzoo> booster: first install gnome-art
[11:48] <nbkr> slapfaceware, How shall I know what your what system you have?
[11:48] <Frogzoo> booster: then sys -> admin -> login
[11:49] <slapfaceware> nbkr, it's just normal 4 year old pc
[11:49] <__ZiGgy__> so just install  file-roller
[11:49] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Then I would give a try to the normal install cd.
[11:49] <erUSUL> __ZiGgy__: or use unzip from command line
[11:49] <kornerr> no
[11:49] <slapfaceware> of which
[11:49] <kornerr> nothing about iso
[11:49] <slapfaceware> nbkr, which one should i get
[11:49] <__ZiGgy__> don't know the command lines yet still new to linux
[11:50] <nbkr> booster, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto
[11:50] <slapfaceware> desktop iso or alternat
[11:50] <nbkr> slapfaceware, As I that the normal install CD - thats the Destkop ISO.
[11:50] <__ZiGgy__> i guess it keeps on saying error occurred during the unzipping
[11:50] <gogeta> mkisofs -f -J -r -o ubuntu-dvd-0.iso ubuntu-dvd/ubuntu0
[11:50] <Morten_> Hey, anyone tried to INstall Intel Fortran Compiler on ubuntu 7.04?
[11:51] <gogeta> to build a iso
[11:51] <__ZiGgy__> n/m man i'll try downloading somthing els and see if it fixes the problem
[11:51] <gogeta> humm
[11:51] <gogeta> but you have nion working isos
[11:51] <kornerr> wait
[11:51] <kornerr> i'll try to redo the things again
[11:52] <Kopfgeldjaeger> hi
[11:53] <booster> hey can anyone tell me what the command is to run as root ???
[11:53] <kornerr> sudo -i
[11:54] <Frogzoo> booster: why do you need to run as root? just use sudo
[11:54] <slapfaceware> what's wrong run as root?
[11:54] <Frogzoo> slapfaceware: running as root with trip you up, sooner or later
[11:55] <slapfaceware> why
[11:55] <slapfaceware> how
[11:55] <booster> im trying to learnmy way around the terminal...and i wanna know some of the basic commands.....to instll apps
[11:55] <slapfaceware> will running as root with trip you up too?
[11:55] <slapfaceware> or just me
[11:55] <Frogzoo> slapfaceware: some combinations of 'rm' & shell expansions can be unfortunate
[11:56] <slapfaceware> so?
[11:56] <slapfaceware> i still don't see how they are related
[11:56] <Frogzoo> slapfaceware: root powers should only be used when absolutely necessary
[11:57] <slapfaceware> define absolutely necessary here
[11:57] <Textbook> when nothing else works
[11:57] <slapfaceware> also, when you say root power, do you mean sudo, su, or both?
[11:57] <Textbook> use it as a last resort is what he's saying
[11:58] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Systemadministration tasks. Things that a normal user is not allowed to do.
[11:58] <aztec13> file:///home/aztec13/TerminalCommands.pers
[11:58] <bl4val> how do i access a shared ubuntu folder from Vista? it' tells me to type a username and password but i don't know them.
[11:58] <slapfaceware> does sudo give you root power? does su give you root power?
[11:58] <nbkr> bl4val, Share? What kind of Share? NFS, SMB?
[11:59] <Textbook> slapfaceware: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sudo
[11:59] <bl4val> nbkr: SMB
[11:59] <aztec13> xkill Kills a running program exit Exits the terminal reboot Reboots the system halt Shutsdown the computer startx Starts xwindows from terminal man man(command)shows help files info info(command) shows help files --help (command)--help shows help files su Allow you to login as Super User
[11:59] <aztec13> ls "Lists" the contents of the directory pwd Displays "present working directory" cd cd (name) change directory TO:(name) mkdir mkdir (name) Makes new directory rmdir rmdir (name) Removes directory clear Clears the terminal window
[11:59] <nbkr> bl4val, Try the login credentials of the user that created the shared folder on gnome.
[11:59] <slapfaceware> i'm trying to figure out the difference between su and sudo here, and why and why not one should be used
[11:59] <slapfaceware> and whatnot
[12:00] <bl4val> nbkr:  i did, and i also tried root.
[12:00] <aztec13> goto off topic
[12:00] <nbkr> slapfaceware, sudo runs a command as root and exists after the command is run.
[12:00] <aztec13> not u sorry
[12:00] <SlimeyPete> slapfaceware: su puts you into a root shell, sudo just temporarily gives root permissions whilst you're running a given process
[12:00] <Frogzoo> bl4val: create a samba passwd for your user 'sudo smbpasswd bl4val'
[12:00] <SlimeyPete> they give you the same perms.
[12:01] <nbkr> slapfaceware, su is used to change permantely to root - without the need to logout and login again.
[12:01] <slapfaceware> so su is quite good, why sudo
[12:01] <Tomcat_> !rootsudo
[12:01] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[12:01] <Frogzoo> sudo answers some of the weaknesses of su
[12:01] <booster> ok quik question...after downloading a package  to my desktop what are the steps to install it???
[12:02] <bl4val> Frogzoo: sudo: sambapasswd: command not found
[12:02] <Frogzoo> 4 why sudo > su c google
[12:02] <zorg_the_false> q. i got a .deb available in a website and would to advice my user on how to install it easily, is there a way to get apt-get or dpkg to read the .deb directly from the http server, instead of first doing wget and then dpkg ?
[12:02] <Frogzoo> bl4val: create a samba passwd for your user 'sudo smbpasswd bl4val'
[12:02] <nbkr> slapfaceware, Let me make an comparssion. Imagine you have a door to a safe. You can open the door, pass it, and afterwards it closes itself. Thats the way sudo works.
[12:02] <nanonyme> sudo is also nice because you can define that user A can run program 1 with privileges X and program 2 with privileges Z
[12:03] <nbkr> slapfaceware, su is like opening the door, locking it, so it can't close it self.
[12:03] <Safe_> how did one write to change the permissions on a dir from root to everybody?
[12:03] <nanonyme> instead of as superuser
[12:03] <bl4val> Frogzoo: now it's working :D
[12:03] <slapfaceware> with su im in shell, can i not type exit to leave the room?
[12:03] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: chmod a+w /mydirname
[12:03] <bl4val> Frogzoo: but i dont need to type in the password when i connect from vista. whats the password for then?
[12:04] <Safe_> zorg_the_false, thanks big time-
[12:04] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: no problem
[12:04] <nbkr> slapfaceware, so you can use su if you need root previlegdes for a longer time. sudo is for one time usage. Thats one different between sudo and su. But there are others. Like it is possible to have a normal user run a command as root without allowing him to do everything root can do
[12:04] <hgamoue> yes
[12:06] <slapfaceware> what things su can do and sudo cannot?
[12:07] <Morten_> Hey, Ive just installed the Intel Fortran Compiler. But how do I use it now? -- At my school, we just type "ifort -o xx.f90 xx.x" but ifort does not exist is says
[12:07] <Morten_> is = it
[12:07] <nbkr> slapfaceware, do as if you logged in as root.
[12:08] <Safe_> zorg_the_false, hm, can i make it recursive as well?
[12:08] <Morten_> .
[12:08] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: sure chmod -R a+w /mydirname
[12:08] <nbkr> Morten_, What fortran compiler did you install gfortran ?
[12:08] <Morten_> Intel Fortran Compiler
[12:08] <nbkr> Morten_, or g77 ?
[12:08] <savvas> my hard disk and dvd-rw drive are detected in bios and windows xp, but in ubuntu not. what's wrong? they're not listed in /dev/
[12:09] <Morten_> nbkr: uhm, I downloaded it from intels page
[12:09] <nbkr> Morten_, Ok, and after downloading? What did you do?
[12:09] <zhanx> anyonre know where the codecs for vlc are kept so i can try to get nsv working, also can xmms do video or just audio?
[12:09] <aztec13> i just put firestarter in and im just going through the wizard and as im googling around i see it has alot of P2P set up advice and it ties into a certain server caz its the same ip in each tutorial,now that i put in firestarter does it do anything to my ability to grab torrents/files from frostwire or do i have to set it up for it ?
[12:09] <nbkr> savvas, Are you running the Live CD?
[12:09] <Morten_> nbkr: I followed the install manuel, that was provided
[12:09] <Safe_> zorg_the_false, hm, doesnt seem to work, still cant access the files.
[12:10] <savvas> nbkr: no, I have dual-boot windows xp and ubuntu
[12:10] <nbkr> Morten_, Doesn't that manual have a information about how to start the compiler?
[12:10] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: ok try "sudo chmod 777 /mydirname; ls /mydirname"
[12:10] <nbkr> savvas, So what does lspci show you?
[12:10] <Morten_> nbkr: im looking for it.. but i cant seem to find it :(
[12:10] <Safe_> sure,
[12:11] <SlimG2> How do I define the metric in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[12:11] <savvas> nbkr: http://pastebin.ca/685354
[12:11] <nbkr> Morten_, You could use find to locate the application. But it is probably easier to just install the fortran compiles that are shipped with ubuntu.
[12:11] <Safe_> ah there, thanks again zorg_the_false. ;)
[12:12] <overclucker> savvas, maybe it's a udev issue
[12:12] <Morten_> nbkr, yeah, but I didn't know what to intall. I just installed what we are using at my university.
[12:12] <nbkr> savvas, Are those disks SATA devices? Than they should be on /dev/sda1 and /dev/scd I think.
[12:13] <nbkr> Morten_, apt-cache search fortran should list the g77 - Compiler. And if you have the universe-repository working it should list gfortran also. Try one of those.
[12:13] <zorg_the_false> Safe_: :)
[12:13] <zhanx> anybody?
[12:13] <Morten_> nbkr, okay, thx alot! :)
[12:14] <zhanx> nsv - network streaming video on linux?
[12:14] <nbkr> zhanx, Tryied VLC?
[12:14] <zhanx> tried i get sound
[12:14] <nbkr> But?
[12:14] <zhanx> no video
[12:15] <savvas> nbkr overclucker: this problem appeared ever since I changed from socket A motherboard to intel core 2 duo => I didn't format the root partition and install the system again, is that wrong? also, the 80-pin wire connects them both and they are both detected as PATA. they should be /dev/hda and /dev/hdb as far as I know. no they're not SATA, my 2 sata disks are detected successfully :(
[12:15] <nbkr> What kind of file do you try to play? WMV Files, Avi, DVDs?
[12:16] <zhanx> streaming nsv. winamp format from in2stream.com *which*they say works with vlc
[12:16] <overclucker> savvas, you might want to try reinstalling, if isn't too much trouble
[12:17] <nbkr> savvas, lspci shows "Unknown device" for that IDE Controller. Maybe it is not supported.
[12:17] <nbkr> zhanx, Maybe a codec missing. What do they use as video codec?
[12:17] <overclucker> savvas, maybe you need to compile your own kernel
[12:17] <zhanx> th stream forvideo appears to be VP61
[12:17] <Gernimo> Hello
[12:18] <zhanx> on the video info
[12:18] <savvas> overclucker: i'm using i386, I'll try the amd64 one
[12:18] <cryptos> hello
[12:18] <cryptos> can i increase/decrease brightness of monitor of my laptop from shell?
[12:18] <Gernimo> I need help to installing my laptop wifi card :/
[12:18] <zhanx> they use a NPnsv._vp3_mp3.dll for windows
[12:19] <nbkr> Gernimo, Just ask your questions :-)
[12:19] <overclucker> might help, but i was thinking maybe you needed to compile the kernel to add pata support, not as a module
[12:19] <Gernimo> It s a intel 4965AGN
[12:19] <savvas> nbkr: thank you too, I'll check if there's a support problem
[12:20] <zhanx> is there away to run winamp in ubuntu?
[12:20] <Gernimo> It s ask me to install the mac subsytem and when I try it s write : Kernel Makefile not found at '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/source/'
[12:20] <zhanx> should check the wine db first eh?

[12:45] <Slart> onats: I don't know if itunes works with wine... but I suppose that might be an option too
[12:46] <onats> slart, currently i'd like to use the native programs first... if that don't work, then ill try wine..
[12:46] <Slart> !ipod

[01:04] <notig> Any virtualisation gurus out there?
[01:05] <ijimene> pla
[01:05] <edn2> not a guru, but am a user
[01:05] <ijimene> ola
[01:06] <notig> is it possible to play with networking with virtualisation using the host OS and guest OS to communicate... like host an apache server on the host OS and use the guest os to get at it?
[01:06] <notig> I cannot seem to ping my guest OS from the HOST os or vice versa
[01:06] <edn2> yes - need to think of the ways
[01:07] <edn2> one way i use is to openvpn from guest to host
[01:07] <notig> with virtual box my guest OS windowxp IP is set to <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:07] <edn2> but i know there are others ... lemme check my config
[01:07] <Karotte> I'm using mutt as mailprogram and vim as editor. I want my mails to have iso-8859-15 encoding when I sent them. I set send_charset to "us-ascii:iso-8859-15:utf-8" in mutt. When I send the mail, the umlauts are encoded in iso-8859-15, but the Content-Type: Header has "utf-8" set. Any ideas why?
[01:07] <notig> but i cant ping ubuntu the Host os which is <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:08] <marlun> Will I be able to play quacke2 if I install both the quake2 and quake2-data packages? Or do I still need the Quake2 CD?
[01:09] <renzo17> marlun: as far as i remember you still need the CD
[01:09] <SlimeyPete> marlun: you'll need the CD
[01:09] <edn2> notig - i run a host-only as well as a bridged adapter
[01:10] <marlun> Know any place which explains how to install it with the CD because I have a very old Quake2 cd but what do I need from it?
[01:10] <gogeta> marlun probly just the wad files
[01:11] <marlun> ah i found an article on the ubuntu help website.
[01:11] <notig> edn2 - how can i do any networking if i cant ping from host to guest or vice versa?
[01:11] <gogeta> quake2 is opensource so alot of the mods for it are standalone now
[01:12] <edn2> notig - still checking my config ... i know the vpn connection allows it, checking my settings
[01:14] <edn2> notig - i'm using openvpn over the host-only adapter ... which adapter are you using?
[01:15] <edn2> notig - vmware, right?
[01:15] <notig> edn2 - virtualbox
[01:16] <shadowhywind> hay all, when i use dhcpcd it assigns me a different ip then what i want. I know there is a file that holds the last ip. But i can't remember where. Any ideas?
[01:16] <edn2> notig - ah, i see.  is there a host-only network connection? (i'm using vmware)
[01:16] <guardian> can someone please recommend an upnp server software: ushare ? mediatomb ? other that is better ?
[01:17] <realnewgu1> hey guys, my sound has stopped :S
[01:17] <realnewgu1> im getting no sound all of a sudden!?
[01:18] <notig> edn2 - sorry that is a little over my head... but i am on a network with a linksys router... the host system is ubuntu and the IP address is <IP_ADDRESS> .. the guest is xp and it is <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:18] <realnewgu1> is there someway to set the sound back to default or anything?
[01:20] <edn2> notig - the ip address you will use to accsss your host system (from the guest) will probably be different as it looks like your host is providing a different network for the guest to play on.  what does your guest say the gateway is?
[01:21] <edn2> notig - "ipconfig" from the xp command prompt
[01:21] <notig> edn2 - <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:21] <notig> edn2 - http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/181
[01:22] <notig> shoudl i get vmware instead of virtualbox?
[01:22] <slapfaceware>  vmware is better, but it works better in windows instead of linux
[01:22] <slapfaceware> no offensive but lots software just work better in windows than in linux
[01:23] <faileas> slapfaceware: i suppose. ;)
[01:23] <kersinc> #ubuntu-es

[01:35] <LinuxSeeker> i am having problem to install it via the normal way
[01:35] <LinuxSeeker> the install fails @ 66%
[01:35] <Pici> LinuxSeeker: Grab the AlternateCD off the download page.
[01:36] <LinuxSeeker> ok
[01:37] <LinuxSeeker> I have had Ubuntu befora and installed it with the i386 cd,i've tried the alternative one too,but it says that i've to use i368 or x86
[01:38] <kousotu> [06:37]  <kousotu> I;m having some major freeze-upswith ubufox
[01:38] <kousotu> [06:38]  <kousotu> how would I got about fixng them?
[01:40] <Pici> LinuxSeeker: I dont mean the 64bit CD, I mean the alternativeCD.
[01:41] <LinuxSeeker> ah ok
[01:41] <LinuxSeeker> okie donkey
[01:42] <Pici> LinuxSeeker: There is a checkbox on the lower part of the download page that asks if you need the alt-cd
[01:49] <aztec13> familiar at all with firestarter,nothing fancy just a basic config?
[01:49] <aztec13> i tried setting it up and i went through the wizard it woulnt let me enable sharing cause i didnt have any other device eth0? to choose from and it says you cant run them both off the same one
[01:50] <bullgard5> I have followed the debug procedure outlined in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend and obtained almost the same result: "hash matches drivers/base/power/resume.c:46". Resume from Suspend-to-Disk works, but not Resume from Suspend-to-RAM. What should I do with driver resume.c now?
[01:50] <booster> hey is there a way to change the login sounds for ubuntu???
[01:50] <bullgard5> booster: yes
[01:51] <aztec13> can somebody help? i even started with a tutorial the problem is i dont have any multiple choice connections like I see in every tutorial
[01:51] <booster> is it simple???
[01:51] <Pelo> aztec13, you don'T have them or you don'T see them ?
[01:51] <bullgard5> booster: yes
[01:52] <booster> google ???
[01:52] <aztec13> probably both
[01:52] <bullgard5> booster: no
[01:52] <Pelo> aztec13, then skip the step and proceed to the next one
[01:52] <ant30> hey people
[01:52] <aztec13> i just have a modem with ethernet i dont know what else it wants
[01:52] <ant30> have got any body a Vostro Dell with Ubuntu ?
[01:53] <Pici> aztec13: As far as I know, you need two network cards if you intend on sharing your connection to another computer.
[01:53] <ant30> I have got problems to launch X with the  nvidia 8400M
[01:53] <aztec13> i did a few diff combos and however it is now i cant get it to enable and still have a internet connect
[01:53] <Pelo> ant30,  it's better to ask a specific question , but if it's truly a model issue you can look it up here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[01:54] <aztec13> but like if i want to use frostwire does that count?
[01:54] <Pelo> aztec13, yes frostwire would could as an internet app
[01:54] <Pelo> would count
[01:55] <aztec13> so just when i go to use it i can turn the firewall off right?
[01:55] <ant30> thanks pelo
[01:56] <Optimus_Prime> hello robot
[01:56] <Pelo> aztec13, this is a firewall issue ? i thought this was a  wireless thing ( sorry I came in late)   you can set frostwire to use a specific port,  check in the prefs
[01:56] <Pici> aztec13: Can you explain from the beginning again what you are trying to do.
[01:56] <aztec13> basic firewall conjfig
[01:56] <Pelo> ant30, did you try the restricted drivers in the admin menu ? yes ?  ok proccede to the binaries
[01:57] <aztec13> 1 computer
[01:57] <ant30> ooooh, its now run with vesa controller
[01:57] <Bacta> Hi how can I mess up someones Ubuntu box???
[01:57] <Pelo> aztec13, personnaly I donT' find anything basic about the firewall in linux,  it's a bit over my head so I don'T use it
[01:57] <aztec13> no network just me
[01:57] <Bacta> i want to hack it real badass
[01:57] <laga> hi. does ubuntu have a boot log? i'd like to see the stuff that scrolled by when i booted the box.
[01:58] <Tomcat_> laga: It's all in syslog.
[01:58] <Pici> laga: check in /var/log/boot
[01:58] <Some_ux> Hi, need help setting up ubuntu server on a Hardware Raid 1
[01:58] <Pelo> !raid | Some_ux
[01:58] <ubotu> Some_ux: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[01:59] <Some_ux> thanks, checking
[02:01] <laga> Pici: /var/boot/log is from july ;)
[02:01] <Some_ux> I dont understand, i have hardware raid and all the help is about software raid
[02:01] <Pici> laga: er, /var/log/syslog is better
[02:01] <laga> Tomcat_: do we know each other from IRCnet?
[02:01] <Pelo> Some_ux, I'm not very knowledgable about raid stuff but since it's harware raid won't the os jsut see it as one hdd anyway ?<
[02:02] <Tomcat_> laga: I doubt it. Last time in IRCnet was... 1996 to 1998 or something.
[02:02] <laga> Pici: thanks. looks like the messages i'm looking for are missing. i get some errors from fsck.xfs
[02:02] <laga> Tomcat_: k, just wondering :)
[02:02] <Tomcat_> :-)
[02:02] <Pelo> Some_ux,  you can also do a search in the forum for  "hardware raid" that might turn up smething
[02:02] <Tomcat_> laga: Unfortunately, "Tomcat" is a well-used name ;)
[02:02] <Some_ux> it appears that the Ubuntu CD does not recognize the hardware raid
[02:02] <Pici> laga: check some of the other stuff in /var/log/ All of the logging stuff is in there.
[02:02] <Some_ux> I did search the forums but could not find anything clear
[02:03] <laga> Pici: i did. nothing came up... i guess i'll try a reboot later, write down the exact message and grep again. thanksa for the help
[02:03] <Micksa> oof.
[02:03] <Micksa> okay, let's see if I get anywhere here.
[02:03] <Pelo> Some_ux, ask around periodicaly you aren'T the first one to ask , I remember other ppl asking you should try asking at different times of day
[02:04] <Some_ux> thanks
[02:04] <booster> is there a package that will change the sounds in ubuntu???
[02:04] <Micksa> so I just recently did a dist-upgrade on my feisty laptop, and it seems to be rather enthusiastic about the swapping now, even though I have plenty of free memory.
[02:04] <Pelo> Some_ux, one thing I do remember is you need the alternate install cd,  don'T know if the server install cd works
[02:04] <Pelo> booster,  you mean the system sound theme ?
[02:05] <DarkED> how do i install something using svn? for instance, svn co https://kibadock.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kibadock/trunk kiba for kiba-dock
[02:05] <booster> yes
[02:05] <Pelo> booster, check in gnomelook.org
[02:05] <booster> ok
[02:05] <DarkED> ahh, nevermind, sorry :)
[02:05] <Pelo> !theme | booster  there might also be some info in here
[02:06] <ubotu> booster  there might also be some info in here: Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy
[02:06] <Pelo> Micksa, so you are running gutsy now ?
[02:06] <Micksa> no, still feisty.
[02:06] <Micksa> it installed a new kernel.
[02:06] <tyas> 02 06 1987
[02:06] <Micksa> it seems to really want to swap stuff.
[02:07] <Pelo> Micksa, that's not a dist upgrade then just a regular update
[02:07] <zhanx> got vp61 working..after installing every codec i could find, and then running mplayer via command line
[02:07] <Pelo> Micksa, type uname -r , what's your kernel ?
[02:07] <Micksa> 2.6.20-16-generic
[02:07] <zhanx> feisty
[02:08] <Pelo> Micksa, well I can only say that I also update the kernel and this is not happening to me,  can you tell which app is using up all the swap ??
[02:08] <ctothej> i installed ubuntu-desktop after initially installing kubuntu, but my update tray notification does not show. how can I make this run again at startup to notify me of updates?
[02:09] <Micksa> no but I have about 800M free out of 1G
[02:09] <Micksa> and ~200M in swap
[02:09] <Pelo> ctothej, check in the specs in synaptic
[02:09] <jrib> ctothej: is "update-notifier" installed?
[02:09] <ALVAN> hi all
[02:10] <Pelo> Micksa, is your hdd trashing ?
[02:10] <Micksa> thrashing, yes :)
[02:10] <ALVAN> has someone installed ubuntu with dmraid ?
[02:10] <ALVAN> or other linux but with dmraid
[02:10] <ctothej> jrib: no it was not... should simply installing it do the trick? or do I have to add it to sessions?
[02:10] <aguitel> hello everybody
[02:10] <Micksa> the computer feels like I'm using too much memory, every app is sluggish and a lot of things cause disk thrashing, even though I have 800M free
[02:11] <aguitel> anyone helpme with ubuntu desktop ?
[02:11] <Micksa> you know what, I'll try turning off swap for a bit
[02:11] <jrib> ctothej: it should add itself to /etc/xdg/autostart/ automatically and should run unless a user disables it
[02:11] <Micksa> I think I have had this problem before
[02:11] <ctothej> jrib: thank you bro
[02:11] <Micksa> and there is a /proc param or similar that you can set to fix it
[02:11] <Micksa> but I forgot what it is
[02:11] <Jeruvy> any pointers on installing ubuntu on an external sata drive?  Using the alt cd I can get it installed, get it to the point to reboot, then it generates 'Error loading OS' message.
[02:11] <Micksa> like, a swap low water mark or something
[02:11] <Pelo> Micksa, try booting the previous kernel and see if it still does it,  if it does , check which apps are running and which , see if there is one that might be responsible rather then the kernel ( might be a conbination of one app on the new kernel but what ever)
[02:11] <jrib> ctothej: but update-notifier is a dep of ubuntu-desktop, so it's strange it is not installed
[02:12] <aguitel> when i minimeze firefox to the system try it desapears ,where i find it ?
[02:12] <ctothej> jrib: very true. i am running ubuntu no problem right now, should I file it as a bug?
[02:12] <Pelo> later folks
[02:13] <jrib> ctothej: I'd try to recreate it or at least have the output from APT that you got when you install ubuntu-desktop
[02:13] <zhanx> ok, looking for the start script.rc but its not in the location i am use to after switching to ubuntu
[02:14] <jrib> zhanx: what are you trying to do?
[02:14] <zhanx> add a program to start up
[02:14] <jrib> zhanx: when your user logs in?
[02:14] <zhanx> yes
[02:14] <ctothej> jrib: is it still logged from a few weeks ago?
[02:14] <jrib> !startup > zhanx (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:14] <aguitel> when i minimeze firefox to the system try it desapears ,where i find it ?
[02:14] <zhanx> k
[02:15] <zhanx> !startup
[02:15] <ubotu> To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot
[02:15] <kbrosnan> aguitel: on one of the other desktops?
[02:15] <jrib> ctothej: depends what you used.  I know /var/log/aptitude* is usually pretty detailed.  Not sure about other stuff
[02:15] <aguitel> kbrosnan ,at all
[02:16] <jrib> aguitel: how are you minimizing to the system tray?  It doesn't do that by default right?
[02:16] <zhanx> used to just editing file..nice to have an interface i guess
[02:17] <aguitel> jrb ,it make click in right corner to minimeze (sign -) and it desapears
[02:17] <WaxyFresh> hi how do i get applications to autostart when starting ubuntu?
[02:18] <jrib> aguitel: ah, in your panel, do you have the "window list" applet?
[02:18] <defrysk> WaxyFresh, preferences > sessions
[02:18] <zhanx> !nautilus
[02:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nautilus - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:18] <jrib> !info nautilus
[02:18] <ubotu> nautilus: file manager and graphical shell for GNOME. In component main, is optional.  and add the "window list" applet
[02:20] <Some_ux> Pelo: will attempt to use alternate CD when i finish downloading it
[02:20] <ZAKhan> how do i create a VCD from an avi ?
[02:20] <aguitel> jrb ,ok
[02:21] <aguitel> jrb ,thanks
[02:23] <Flamekebab> My extra partitions are auto mounted, but as root, meaning I can't write to them. How can I fix this? (linux partitions, not NTFS)
[02:23] <cdavis> anyone have bacula installed?
[02:23] <cdavis> I get errors on bacula-console-gnome and wondered if it was just my machine, I can't find any reported bugs
[02:23] <jrib> Flamekebab: use chmod/chown to change the permissions where they are mounted.  Treat them just like any other file...
[02:23] <jrib> !permissions > Flamekebab (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:24] <Flamekebab> Isn't it possible to get them to mount at login, so to speak?
[02:24] <christoffernors> evilidler
[02:24] <Flamekebab> I can't seem to get the permissions to update recursively
[02:24] <jrib> Flamekebab: you just said they were already automatically mounted
[02:25] <puvneet> hi does any on eknow how to solve  grub error 22
[02:25] <jrib> Flamekebab: where are you mounting them and what type of data is on them?
[02:26] <puvneet> so can some one help me
[02:26] <Flamekebab> yeah, they are already mounted, but as root, it would seem.
[02:26] <jrib> Flamekebab: right, you need to use chmod/chown on them
[02:26] <Flamekebab> they're mounted in /media/
[02:26] <TelnetManta> can anyone tell me where to find the Firefox_wallpaper.png file?
[02:27] <TelnetManta> I cant find it on my system and I want to back it up
[02:27] <jrib> TelnetManta: what is Firefox_wallpaper.png?
[02:27] <TelnetManta> when you set an image as your background from inside firefox it gets that name
[02:27] <jrib> Flamekebab: what permissions are you trying to give and how are you trying?
[02:28] <n3tfury> TelnetManta:  did you check hidden files when searching
[02:28] <Flamekebab> I'm trying to make them 0777

[02:34] <inx-one> !anyone
[02:34] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[02:34] <ZAKhan> n3tfury, how do i convert an avi to mpeg?
[02:34] <berniekun> !net
[02:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about net - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[02:36] <jrib> TelnetManta: well try:  find ~ -name Firefox_wallpaper.png
[02:36] <puvneet> how do you update ubuntu 5.04
[02:36] <Pici> puvneet: 5.04 has not been supported for about a year.
[02:37] <defrysk> puvneet, maybe its wiser to do a fresh install
[02:37] <berniekun>
[02:37] <ctothej> zhanx: none that I have heard of, but then again, it is not a major topic that I see. you are going to use it for work?
[02:37] <jrib> TelnetManta: I just tried here and it shows up as ~/Firefox_wallpaper.png so maybe try setting the picture as background again?
[02:38] <berniekun> puvneet $sudo apt-get upgrade
[02:38] <berniekun> puvneet $sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[02:38] <puvneet> i realize that but i have no choice because my other computer has a grub 22 error and need to update the bootloader and to do that i need to burn a rescue disk for xp and to do that i need to install brasero and finally to do that i need an update on 5.04 just to tell you my problems
[02:38] <Pici> berniekun: It wont work. There 5.04 and 5.10 are no longer supported.
[02:38] <Alessio88>
[02:38] <EvaLuaTe> could anyone guide me to some online resource about installing PPPoA on ubuntu dapper drake server edition ?
[02:38] <zhanx> have to use it, no choice to login into my server, via internet or email

[02:39] <Alessio88> thanks but i'm not chinese :]
[02:40] <Alessio88> I'm just installing ubuntu
[02:41] <familie> hello world, I installed the new ubuntu the first time from scratch on a box in our network and I'm really gonna puke now: a) Why was GParted removec from the setup?? b) Why was XChat removed from the std installation? c) Why in hell wasn't I promted to enter a root password during installation?! What happened to ubuntu :(
[02:41] <familie> Now I'm sitting here without any root password wtf?
[02:41] <Alessio88> sudo
[02:41] <Alessio88> su
[02:41] <jrib> !root > familie (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:41] <zhanx> familie,  dont worry the root password tripped me out too, i just reset it
[02:42] <jrib> !root > zhanx (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:42] <Pici> zhanx: please dont suggest that.
[02:42] <familie> zhanx, how to reset it?
[02:42] <jrib> familie: don't reset it, read the private message ubotu sent you
[02:42] <booster> yup
[02:42] <puvneet> so can anyone help me is there an app to erase and rewrite cd's in ubuntu 5.04
[02:42] <familie> jrib, why was it removed?
[02:42] <jrib> familie: what was what removed?
[02:42] <zhanx> oh umm.. well ok
[02:42] <Pici> !hoary | puvneet
[02:42] <familie> I mean why was it changed.. the root password
[02:42] <ubotu> puvneet: Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog) was the second release of Ubuntu.  End Of Life: October 31, 2006. See !eol for more details.
[02:43] <zezom> is there a 64bit version of ubuntu? or can I just use the normal installer disk and it will figure out that I need 64bit support on it's own?
[02:43] <familie> zezom, on ubuntu.com there is one
[02:43] <jrib> zezom: there is, but on a desktop system you should use i386 anyway
[02:43] <Jeruvy> any pointers on installing ubuntu on an external sata drive?  Using the alt cd I can get it installed, get it to the point to reboot, then it generates 'Error loading OS' message.
[02:43] <puvneet> what is eol
[02:43] <Pici> !eol | puvneet
[02:43] <ubotu> puvneet: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/LifeCycle
[02:43] <zezom> familie, jrib thanks guys
[02:43] <renzo17> zezom: releases.ubuntu.com
[02:43] <Pici> puvneet: It is no longer supported.
[02:43] <familie> Jeruvy, did you change the boot order in your bios?
[02:44] <jrib> familie: it wasn't changed.  Ubuntu uses grants sudo rights to the first user instead of setting a root password
[02:44] <jrib> s/uses//
[02:44] <TelnetManta> jrib: What did you try? Do you mean that you see it at ~/
[02:44] <familie> jrib, great and now I need to setup another account in order to use ssh?
[02:44] <jrib> familie: if you want to
[02:44] <Jeruvy> familie: the boot order in bios is not affected by external drives
[02:44] <puvneet> is there a way to upgrade to the new version with having to burn and install a whole new version and just upgrade over the internet
[02:44] <puvneet> with out having...
[02:45] <familie> Jeruvy, I gotta do it in my scsi-card's bios
[02:45] <Jeruvy> familie: it's not scsi, its eSATA
[02:45] <jrib> TelnetManta: I found an image in firefox, right click -> set as background, then I looked in /home/jrib and there was a file called "Firefox_wallpaper.png"
[02:45] <renzo17> puvneet: apt-get can upgrade a distro for you
[02:46] <Jeruvy> familie: however setup detected it as SCSI 6 (sde) partitioned and formatted ok.  But does not boot.
[02:46] <puvneet> what is the command
[02:46] <familie> Jeruvy, oh, sorry i misread that
[02:46] <glance> Hellu
[02:46] <ctothej> !dist-upgrade | puvneet
[02:46] <renzo17> puvneet: which version are you upgrading from --->  ??
[02:46] <ubotu> puvneet: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[02:46] <Pici> puvneet: Perhaps if you were only one release behind, yes. But you are not.  I suggest you backup and download the Feisty install disk and do a clean install.
[02:46] <glance> I have a strange problem with my graphics-card.

[02:52] <dxa> does ubuntu use bash?
[02:53] <Hippu> dxa: ubuntu uses dash by default
[02:53] <Pici> dxa: Yes. But /bin/sh is linked to dash.
[02:53] <dxa> why?
[02:53] <dxa> what are the differences and why prefer dash over bash?
[02:53] <Pici> dxa: It uses bash for login sessions, but dash for /bin/sh it is supposedly more lightweight.
[02:53] <Tomcat_> dxa: dash needs less memory and starts faster.
[02:54] <dxa> but does it have the same features?
[02:54] <Tomcat_> dxa: No... less features. That's why it's more lightweight :)
[02:54] <Pici> dxa: Its not 100% compatible.
[02:54] <jrib> dxa: it's supposed to be posix compliant.  If a script claims to use /bin/sh, it is supposed to work
[02:54] <monkeyBox> Can anyone point me to a php-4 installation howto for ubuntu feisty?  I've googled and everything I've come up with is just a story about how php4 is now unsupported.
[02:54] <dxa> hm
[02:55] <mattb> anyone know when linux-xen for x86_64 in gutsy will be ready?
[02:55] <mattb> bug #132726, says the new package uploaded 9 hours ago should provide it, but launchpad says that's built and there is still no -xen image for x86_64...
[02:55] <jrib> dxa: scripts that rely on bashisms are supposed to have #!/bin/bash instead of #!/bin/sh in other words
[02:55] <berniekun> anypne knows where to download pidgin-encryption1?

[02:56] <npnufn> where can I get the Pidgin for Ubuntu?
[02:56] <SlimeyPete> !pidgin
[02:56] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[02:56] <npnufn> I see only win/Fedora/Redhat ports.
[02:56] <private_guy> Hi there guys, I cannot access my wireless using a WAP Security code, there is no option for WAP, only WEP, im running ubuntu 7.04 :P

[02:59] <thor> I am having problems installing ntfs-3g in dapper. Synaptics refuses to install it as some libraries are not the correct version. Anyone know how to get the latest?
[02:59] <renzo17> private_guy: is network manager not taking care of it for you?
[02:59] <npnufn> Pici; do u know any location where I can get Feisty port of Pidgin.
[02:59] <private_guy> renzo17: not really, there is only a WEP option and not a WAP option :(
[02:59] <Pici> npnufn: No, I do not. Sorry.
[03:00] <renzo17> private_guy: do you mean WPA?
[03:00] <private_guy> *WPA sorry :P lol
[03:00] <private_guy> renzo17: *WAP sorry :P lol
[03:00] <private_guy> renzo17: *dam.. im so tired, i mean WPA lol
[03:01] <thor> private_guy: I had the same problem not getting wpa with network manager. Turned out the card I was using can't support it in linux.
[03:01] <private_guy> thor: Mine is supported on Linux because I read it in the ubuntu forums, mine is called Belkin :P
[03:01] <renzo17> private_guy: network manager should support it by default, if not, you may have to play with wpasupplicant manually, see here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo
[03:02] <usser> hello everybody
[03:02] <private_guy> renzo17: If it doesn't support it in default, what does it mean then? that my wireless card isn't support?
[03:02] <renzo17> private_guy: not necessarily, it just may not be configured properly, i'm not much an expert on wireless
[03:03] <npnufn> Is there any one who knows how to install pidgin in my Feisty box.
[03:03] <IrishDave> hey, does anyone know if it's possible to share a music library on a ubuntu machine with a machine using itunes (like itunes can share it's library with other itunes machines)

[03:12] <superbenk> I'm used to dd or dd= as a kernel boot option in CentOS, but I don't know how Ubuntu does it
[03:12] <Silly_Wabbit> Hi all :-)

[03:13] <yaiba> renzo17 : thx
[03:13] <zhanx> can i install a RPM on ubuntu?
[03:13] <erUSUL> !alien | zhanx
[03:13] <wottam> hi
[03:13] <ubotu> zhanx: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[03:14] <renzo17> zhanx: yeah you can, best way is to use alien to convert it to a deb then install it.......best bet though is to find a deb version already compiled for you
[03:14] <tparcina> renzo17: /home/tomo/Desktop/test.txt
[03:14] <zhanx> renzo17,  thats a no go there aint one
[03:14] <renzo17> zhanx: have you chacked the debian repos or getdeb?
[03:14] <EvaLuaTe> if i installed xubuntu-desktop and removed it, it didn't remove all the files and dependencies that were installed during the xubuntu-desktop install, is there a way i could completely remove it ?
[03:15] <renzo17> tparcina: you shouldnt need to be root to edit a file in your home folder
[03:15] <zhanx> getdeb? and besides it commerical software so it shouldn't be there
[03:15] <berent> where do i put the ttf files?
[03:15] <tparcina> ok, then /etc/xinet.d/Xvnc :)
[03:16] <berent> where do i put the ttf files for viewing a new font type on my browser?
[03:16] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: xubuntu-desktop is only a meta-package.........i thinkk you need to uninstall everything individually by name
[03:16] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: hold on, theres a guide
[03:16] <EvaLuaTe> ouch :/
[03:17] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: just copy+paste the command here http://www.shivanjaikaran.com/blog/?p=49
[03:17] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: its only one command, its just very long
[03:18] <renzo17> tparcina: for that file you do need to be root so run " gksudo gedit /etc/xinet.d/Xvnc "
[03:18] <EvaLuaTe> renzo17, yeah, copy/paste would be very nice, but i'm in command line right now
[03:18] <EvaLuaTe> thanks anyway, that helps :)
[03:19] <jrib> EvaLuaTe: without X?
[03:19] <h1st0> EvaLuaTe: you could enable mouse and do copy and paste
[03:19] <tparcina> renzo17: look at this - http://slexy.org/paste/4727
[03:19] <Silly_Wabbit> Hi, just installed Ubuntu ( my first linux experience :-) ) I'm having a problem playing the video "experience Ubuntu" in Movie Player: I get a audio, but blank screen which breaks up when I try to re-size it during playback. I did some reading, but can't find the answer. I managed to get to the "multimedia systems selector" window via the CLI. Under the "video" tab it says "Device not supported" so maybe that's my problem? I really have tried to figure
[03:19] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: you may be able to view it with linx (or lynx....i forget how its spelt)
[03:19] <EvaLuaTe> yeah, without X, the normal thing ubuntu server edition comes with
[03:19] <jrib> EvaLuaTe: you can copy and paste with screen as well
[03:20] <jrib> EvaLuaTe: or you could wget the html file and then edit to only have the command, lots of options :)
[03:20] <usser> EvaLuaTe it lynx

[03:24] <Frosty|IDle> looks like theres some kind of issue with FF 7.04
[03:25] <Frogzoo> Frosty|IDle: we can try to guess what it is
[03:25] <Ircownik> hello. I've got a problem with Feisty: I can't install anything - all check boxes are yellow. Can anyone help me with that, pls?
[03:26] <berniesama> what is your favorite bt client?!
[03:26] <Silly_Wabbit> Hi, I have a problem with playing video in "Movie player" can somebody help, please? :)
[03:26] <berniesama> silly -> check synaptic and install gstreamer
[03:27] <Frosty|IDle> install vlc :D
[03:27] <berniesama> you need the video framer for movie player
[03:27] <Frosty|IDle> that software can play almost anything :)
[03:27] <Ircownik> check boxes are green, of course
[03:27] <Silly_Wabbit> @berniesama - I'll try that, thanks for yourhelp :)
[03:27] <Daverocks> why are you guys automatically assuming it's a codec problem?
[03:27] <Daverocks> Silly_Wabbit: you said it was the "experience ubuntu" video you couldn't play?
[03:27] <kkathman> thats flash isnt it ?
[03:27] <Silly_Wabbit> yes, just installed linux and this video won't play
[03:28] <Daverocks> kkathman: ogg
[03:28] <selinuxium> hi all, I have just installed a vanilla feisty but I have no sound now... I can see the card in lspci... just plain weird!
[03:28] <kkathman> ahh I had forgot :)
[03:28] <EvaLuaTe> i am connecting to the internet through an fiber connection, and when connecting my ubuntu 6.06 computer directly to the modem it won't connect, it only connects if i do i through a router, does anyone have a solution for this ?
[03:28] <Ircownik> anyone?
[03:28] <Frogzoo> !sound | selinuxium
[03:28] <Silly_Wabbit> I get audio, but no video :)
[03:28] <ubotu> selinuxium: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:29] <berniesama> Daverocks: if you are experience you would have asked a more advanced question, hence I guessed it was the GStreamer problem
[03:29] <Daverocks> Silly_Wabbit: sounds like totem is having trouble with video out, what graphics card do you have?
[03:29] <sipior> selinuxium: is your account a member of the audio group?
[03:29] <stefg> selinuxium: intel hda ?
[03:29] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: wget http://www.manorfarmpork.co.uk/xubuntu_remove.txt
[03:29] <EvaLuaTe> yeah, thanks renzo17, i think i managed to remove it
[03:29] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: then you can just open the file in nano/vim/pico and copy paste the command
[03:30] <EvaLuaTe> :)
[03:30] <renzo17> EvaLuaTe: cool,
[03:30] <selinuxium> Frogzoo: I don't believe it, I have been struggling with this one for a bit. Turns out for some reason it decided to use the digital outs as standard! Thanks for you help all
[03:30] <Silly_Wabbit> Sorry, I'm not too sure what card it is. I have some integrated card. I managed to get to the "multimedia selector" box and it says under device: "unsuported" What do you think?
[03:30] <selinuxium> sipior: stefg Cheers ^^^^
[03:30] <Ircownik> I've been using ubuntu for quite a long time and I have'nt had such a problem before, that's why I asked
[03:30] <Daverocks> berniesama: fair enough, but he clearly said earlier in the channel (before i jutted in) that it was the experience ubuntu sample video that he couldn't play, which is ogg
[03:31] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: what does lsci | grep audio say?
[03:31] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: what does lspci | grep audio say?
[03:31] <Frogzoo> selinuxium: yeah, trap for new players that is
[03:31] <Daverocks> stefg: uh, his audio is ok, it's just the video
[03:31] <stefg> Oh... thanks for the hint
[03:31] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg Sorry, I don't know what you mean, this is my first experience with linux
[03:32] <Ircownik> the other thing is I cannot enable nvidia drivers with restricted dirivers managemetn tool.
[03:32] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: nerver mind... i was way off... that was a terminal command
[03:32] <Ircownik> both on ubuntu or xubuntu
[03:32] <Silly_Wabbit> and yeah, it's the sample video "experience ubuntu" i get sound but no video
[03:32] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg no problem, thanks for trying to help :)
[03:32] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: using dsktop effects?
[03:33] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg  yes, I have them turned on :)
[03:33] <stefg> Silly_Wabbit: turn them off and try again
[03:33] <Frogzoo> Silly_Wabbit: what file type is that?
[03:33] <renzo17> .ogg
[03:33] <Silly_Wabbit> @stefg thanks, I will try that, and let you know what happens
[03:33] <kkathman> whats the link to the video btw ?
[03:34] <Silly_Wabbit> @frogzoo it's ogg vorbis the "experience ubunto" sample video
[03:34] <Silly_Wabbit> brb, going to try turning off the desktop effects :)
[03:34] <kkathman> stefg yeah I was going to try it here since I have fusion effects running
[03:34] <Silly_Wabbit> thanks all :)
[03:34] <berent> for some reasons stand-by mode of feisty doesnt work for me. It shuts down with some errors printing like usb closing ....
[03:34] <Daverocks> kkathman: it's in /usr/share/example-content/
[03:34] <EvaLuaTe> ok, so i got a tip to install PPPoE for my internet connection to work, i did, but i have no grafical interface, is there a way to configure PPPoE throught the terminal ?
[03:34] <kkathman> ok thanks Daverocks
[03:34] <berent> because of this my processor fan runs all thru the day

[03:35] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: sudo pppoeconfig
[03:35] <kkathman> Daverocks:  stefg  its not the xgl bug then - plays fine here
[03:36] <EvaLuaTe> pppoeconfig command not found :/
[03:36] <Daverocks> kkathman: but your hardware configuration is different to Silly_Wabbit's
[03:36] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: sudo pppoeconf soz
[03:36] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: sudo pppoeconf
[03:36] <EvaLuaTe> yeah, works now :)
[03:36] <EvaLuaTe> thanks guys
[03:37] <Daverocks> kkathman: sometimes xgl causes other problems on angry hardware, and turning it off often helps
[03:37] <kkathman> Daverocks:  oh sure thats true...but just saying that its plays fine with compiz-fusion running in all its glory :)
[03:37] <kkathman> with nVIdia, I used to turn it off on my other distro
[03:37] <kkathman> Im not 100% sure that you can in compiz-fusion
[03:38] <stefg> In general XGL works quite flawless with nvidia-stuff on nvidia-glx, but reverse-blows hard on ATi
[03:39] <EvaLuaTe> hmm, it says the Access Concentrator of my provider did not respond, any idea what the cause could be ?

[03:40] <Silly_Wabbit> Hi, I'm back. I turned of the desktop effects, but I still have the same problem. I was trying to figure it out before and entered into the CLI here is what I typed and what I got, I don't know if it's any help, but it may tell you something about the problem.
[03:40] <ZAKhan> thanks
[03:40] <EvaLuaTe> i unplugged the cable out of the router and plugged it into the modem

[03:41] <private_guy> renzo17: Hi there again :), i installed WPA supplicant and anything else as shown on Ubuntu, but i still dont see a WPA option
[03:41] <EvaLuaTe> stefg, i unplugged the cable out of the router and plugged it into the modem, shouldn't it work now ?
[03:42] <private_guy> Hi there everybody again :), i installed WPA supplicant and anything else as shown on Ubuntu, but i still dont see a WPA option
[03:43] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: yes... sometimes it take a reboot or a modem reset. But why aren't you just using the router? Its doing all ther pppoe stuff and on the LAN end everything is just etherent
[03:43] <Guus__> hey, i have a question about the Network Manager applet
[03:44] <EvaLuaTe> well, i got multiple IP's from my ISP and i don't know how to set up my router so i could connect through multiple IP's through it, so i think it would be easier to just directly connect to the modem
[03:44] <Frogzoo> Guus__: that's nice for you
[03:44] <Guus__> ive created 2 profiles, ISP and OpenDNS, currently the ISp is the default one
[03:44] <Guus__> but how do i make the OpenDNS profile the default one
[03:44] <christoffernors> can i delay or advance subtitles in xine player?
[03:44] <Guus__> ?
[03:44] <renzo17> private_guy: did you follow that guide on the link and wpa is still not an option in network manage? did you reboot/restart?
[03:45] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: rather invest time in understanding your router. The NAT and (hopefully) builtin firewall are too neat to waste
[03:45] <Frogzoo> christoffernors: not afaik, nice feature though
[03:46] <EvaLuaTe> stefg, this is a bit complicated, as some of the application connecting to the internet do not recognize their real IP, they reply their local IP address, like <IP_ADDRESS> and stuff like that, and i don't know how to make them work :/
[03:46] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: port forwarding
[03:46] <christoffernors> damn
[03:46] <renzo17> private_guy: try running " wpa_gui " from the terminal and see if a dialog box pops up
[03:47] <EvaLuaTe> stefg, i did port forwarding, but it doesn't work
[03:47] <EvaLuaTe> or maybe i just didn't do it right ...
[03:47] <n3tfury> EvaLuaTe : why would your ISP give you multiple ip's?
[03:47] <EvaLuaTe> because i paid for them ? :P
[03:47] <n3tfury> i missed why you would do that tho
[03:47] <n3tfury> what's the purpose
[03:48] <EvaLuaTe> because i want to make a little server
[03:48] <Frogzoo> EvaLuaTe: you need to do nat on the router
[03:48] <EvaLuaTe> hmm
[03:48] <Jeruvy> Frogzoo: why do you 'need' to do nat?
[03:48] <stefg> EvaLuaTe: and to not fall victim to next script-kiddie taking over your box and using it as spam relay you should rather invest time in understanding your router, your setup and your apps :-)
[03:49] <Frogzoo> Jeruvy: well you don't if you have multiple ips
[03:49] <EvaLuaTe> hmm
[03:49] <n3tfury> yeah, if you're going to setup a server, you need to know the ins and outs of that router.
[03:49] <EvaLuaTe> ok guys, thanks :)
[03:49] <Silly_Wabbit> /exit
[03:50] <Silly_Wabbit> /leave
[03:50] <usser> Silly
[03:50] <Jeruvy> Frogzoo: I don't know about around your home, but here every connection I can get allows me 2 IP's.  IF I want more I simply pay for more.  NAT is great and wonderful, but having two IANA routable addresses is handy.
[03:50] <soc> hi
[03:50] <soc> how can i add passwords to seahorse/gnome-keyring-manager???

[03:51] <Jimmey> I accidentally wrote grub to my NTFS Windows partition, and in doing so, broke it. I ran testdisk to fix the boot sector of the NTFS partition, and that made the file system readable by Ubuntu, at least - But when I try to boot into Windows, I just get "Starting up... GRUB." I get this when I select the Windows entry in GRUB, and again after I ran "fixmbr" in the Windows CD's recovery console. Why won't Windows boot?
[03:52] <christoffernors> Why is subtitles not displayed in Kaffeine or VLC when it is perfectly shown in Xine Player and Totem player? :(
[03:52] <section31> if i have an ampersand in my password, how would i go about escaping it when i use it as such.  wget<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[03:52] <ikonia> Jimmey boot from the windows cd and do fixboot option from "repair" mode
[03:52] <c01100011> shutdown windows incorrectly, ntfs drive isn't mounting, what is the command ... fix ntfs ?
[03:52] <Jimmey> ikonia, should I run "fixboot" in the console?

[03:54] <soc> c01100011:  afaik you have to boot windows again, if it was unmounted uncleanly ...
[03:54] <stefg> c01100011: be aware that ntfs-fix doe not actually fix anything (in the sense of chkdsk) it just resets the 'clean' bits so you can moutn again rw, but that can be risky

[03:56] <usser> Flamekebab did u add sambausers with smbpasswd
[03:56] <stefg> tuqann: so you can write to some folders on the same physical drive ?

[04:18] <Cool> Some body have Skype i'll Show you what happen with my Think pad ?
[04:18] <Xman> can anyone tell me how can i rescue windows if i uninstall grub boot loader
[04:18] <usser> Xman if u have boot cd boot into recovery console and do 'fixmbr'
[04:18] <Dr_willis> Xman,  windows xp = boot xp cd, use its 'rescue/recovery/fix console' and the 'fixmbr' and perhaps 'fixboot' commands.
[04:18] <drilus> how do i install graphic drivers for ubuntu? everything is working fine but things are sluggish
[04:18] <Cool> or i give you mine

[04:21] <usser> Arcad3 hey
[04:21] <Arcad3> hi can i set my /etc/hosts to deafult?
[04:21] <usser> Arcad3  what do u mean to default??
[04:21] <FFForever> can someone tell me why i can't access my website but my friends can?
[04:22] <Arcad3> apr_sockaddr_info_get() failed for HOSTNAME
[04:22] <Arcad3> i changed some things in /etc/hosts
[04:23] <Cool> Fellows some body have skype and cam i show you my problem pease
[04:23] <usser> Arcad3 this is pretty much the default on my comp http://pastebin.ca/685648
[04:23] <Jeruvy> ok I'm in 'rescue' mode, I need to find my ubuntu install out of 5 disks.  It was sde when I installed it, but I'm now given a choice that does not include sde.  I have sda1, sda2. sda5, sdb1, sdd1.  How can I know which to select for rescue mode?
[04:23] <ikonia> Cool: skype doesn't work with a webcam on linux
[04:23] <ikonia> Cool: I don't think any way
[04:24] <cooc> I'm running Ubuntu on my AMD64 4000+ and everything seem to run a bit slow compared to Windows. The USB Mouse will hang when the system load is bad and so will applications. The system load gets bad just by surfing and viewing a video :( Any suggestions?
[04:24] <renzo17> when i boot my laptop up, network manager automatically connects to some other guys wireless in my building (his is unprotected) and i have to disconnect from his and the connect to mine. is there a way to set network manager to automatically connect to my network when i boot up?
[04:24] <Broc223> cooc: use windows
[04:25] <cooc> I hope you don't mean that
[04:25] <usser> cooc u most likely dont have video drivers installed do glxinfo | grep direct in console and paste output
[04:25] <Daverocks> cooc: you installed the amd64 version of ubuntu?
[04:25] <ikonia> 4usser what video card do you have ?
[04:25] <Arcad3> can u paste me ur  /etc/hosts?
[04:25] <MrKeuner> why shoul/should not be afraid of third party debian packages?
[04:25] <ikonia> MrKeuner debian is not ubuntu
[04:25] <usser> Arcad3 i just did like 10 lines above pastebin link ))
[04:25] <MrKeuner> ikonia: deb packages I tried to mean
[04:25] <nanonyme> although the answer to third-party packages is: if you trust the author, there's nothing wrong in using those
[04:26] <nanonyme> although the author is the only guy who gives support for them
[04:26] <ikonia> MrKeuner they can potentially do damage or require dependencies that your system doesn't have or update your system with newer incompatible versions
[04:26] <estab> servus
[04:26] <estab> oh..
[04:26] <Frogzoo_> cooc: you running 64bit?
[04:26] <nanonyme> support for unofficial packages is through unofficial support channels :)
[04:26] <ezebe> hi folks, i'm having some keyboard shortcut issues, can anybody give me some advice?
[04:26] <cooc> usser, I'm pretty sure my video driver is working fine. I used envy to install the latest. Daverocks, I don't think I installed the 64 bit version - also, I have read that some applications will be harder to install using that particular version
[04:26] <estab> which Vnc server must I use to login in a running X session?
[04:27] <MrKeuner> ikonia: can deb file erase a file /etc/testfile or write over it?
[04:27] <renzo17> !envy | cooc
[04:27] <ubotu> cooc: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[04:27] <Frogzoo_> ezebe: I advise you to actually say what your problem is
[04:27] <usser> cooc still do glxinfo | grep direct so we all be sure its not it )))
[04:27] <ikonia> MrKeuner deb file can do anything - it executed with root permissinos
[04:27] <npnufn> I just installed Pidgin, but it is missing guification plugin,  does any one know about this?
[04:27] <Daverocks> cooc: yep, there tends to be more application incompatibility
[04:27] <jiam> renzo17: on your /etc/network/interfaces  you can set wireless-essid
[04:27] <usser> cooc i dont trust envy )))
[04:27] <cooc> direct rendering: Yes
[04:27] <Daverocks> usser: cooc gives a general description of slowness and you instantly assume video driver problem? wtf?
[04:27] <mikebot> What's the difference between Opera and Opera-static?
[04:28] <estab> no idea?
[04:28] <renzo17> jiam: thanks, i was under the impression that nm-applet ignored the interfaces file....?
[04:28] <mweichert> any ms exchange users here?
[04:28] <Daverocks> cooc: anything in particular using up CPU?
[04:28] <cooc> I don't know about Envy. It seemed to install without any problems and the machine worked no better before
[04:28] <usser> Daverocks i dont assume, i only suppose since its the most common reason
[04:28] <renzo17> mweichert: yeah
[04:28] <jatx> mweichert: lol yeah
[04:28] <jiam> renzo17: it does not ignore
[04:28] <ezebe> sure, i got my wireless keyboard special function keys all working yesterday, but today mysteriously the playpause one quit on me. m strangte thing is, the system/prefs/keyshortcts window sees it still, it's just that whatever i set it to do doesn't happen... i'm a bit stumped
[04:28] <Frogzoo_> !anyone | mweichert
[04:28] <ubotu> mweichert: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:28] <SlimeyPete> mikebot: static has the QT libraries compiled-in, non-static requires you to already have them installed.
[04:29] <mikebot> SlimeyPete: What are the QT libraries?
[04:29] <cooc> I tried to study the list of running processed but it seems nothing in particular stands out as eating up all my CPU
[04:29] <Guus__> ive created 2 profiles in the nework manager applet, ISP and OpenDNS, currently the ISP is the default profile on bootup but how do i make OpenDNS the default profile at bootup?
[04:29] <mweichert> does exchange 2007 have any standard way of accessing calendars, such as ical?
[04:29] <usser> cooc how about memory?
[04:29] <SlimeyPete> mikebot: they're programming libraries which handle GUI stuff (like GTK). There's a fairly good chance you already have them installed.
[04:29] <cooc> I got 4GB and nothing is even denting that
[04:29] <Arcad3> thanks i was offline
[04:29] <ezebe> ubotu: i spose it's just people trying to be polite
[04:30] <Pici> ezebe: ubotu is a bot.
[04:30] <Dr_willis> a polite bot.
[04:30] <Dr_willis> :)
[04:30] <mikebot> SlimeyPete: SO then is there any advantage to opera-static? Because I know I'm using static instead of just plain Opera.
[04:30] <cooc> A problem scenario could be surfing with Firefox while chatting and listening to music. Changing between the applications and initating new actions in those programs will take a lot longer than what I'm used to
[04:30] <SlimeyPete> mikebot: no advantage, really, no.
[04:31] <Frogzoo_> ezebe: politeness isn't good netiquette - your prelim is spam
[04:31] <grungehead> i've got the problem, that when i connect by the gnome VPN-Connection Manager to a VPN-Network, my DNS and Searchdomains gets lost... how can i fix that?
[04:31] <onats> i inserted a usb portable hard drive, how do i determine what its filesystem type is?
[04:31] <mikebot> SlimeyPete: OK, thanks.
[04:31] <ezebe> ok, i like talking to bots, they're always friendly
[04:31] <Urilockz> is gutsy gibbon the next release of ubuntu?
[04:31] <Mba7eth> hi all guys how to set my NIC to full duplex mode ?
[04:31] <Dr_willis> Urilockz,  yes.
[04:32] <ikonia> onats: if you just mount it, it should work it out if the file system is supported
[04:32] <ikonia> Mba7eth ethtool
[04:32] <mweichert> renzo17: how do you access your calendar from ubuntu?
[04:32] <Urilockz> oh right ok
[04:32] <Daverocks> cooc: well the typical thing that happens when you switch programs and initiate new actions in programs is more RAM writing than usual, but i don't see how it could be slow RAM writing
[04:32] <onats> ikonia, hi. yes, i can see the files, but unable to paste onto it..
[04:32] <Frogzoo_> Urilockz: gutsy is alpha - to be released in october sometime
[04:32] <Urilockz> /chat ubotu
[04:32] <Mba7eth> ikonia : thnks
[04:32] <ikonia>  onats ok so its probably mounted read only
[04:32] <Urilockz> how do I talk to ubotu
[04:32] <cooc> I have no idea about this because I'm fairly new to Linux but what about the Kernel? Could it be that it's not the 'right' kernel I'm using?
[04:32] <Pici> Urilockz: /msg ubotu something

[04:33] <onats> ikonia, how do i make it rw?
[04:33] <ikonia> onats well, it depends what type of file system it it
[04:33] <skyfalcon866> when will gusty gibbon be released
[04:33] <renzo17> mweichert: i dont sdaly, i boot xp..... there may be a way to do it in thunderbird or evolution though
[04:33] <ikonia> if you open a terminal and type "mount" tell me what type of file system it is
[04:33] <gnub> is it possible to activate swap on a usb stick on live cd_
[04:33] <onats> ikonia, that's why i asked the first question...:)
[04:33] <Vlet> Urilockz: it's just a program that spits out stock answers for commonly asked questions
[04:33] <Frogzoo_> skyfalcon866: october
[04:33] <renzo17> mweichert: sdaly = sadly
[04:33] <IrishDave> hey, does anyone know of a good svg icon theme for gnome? i'm using compiz and i want some icons that might look nicer when im doing things like alt+tab on a minimized window

[04:34] <onats> ikonia, its in ntfs:(
[04:34] <ezebe> where does the keyboardshortcuts program in system/preferences store its settings, and what refers to that?
[04:34] <onats> noooo
[04:34] <ikonia> onats: ok - so you need to look at ntfs-3g/fuse
[04:34] <ikonia> !fuse >onats
[04:34] <ikonia> !ntfs-3g >onants
[04:34] <ikonia> !ntfs-3g >onats
[04:34] <Frogzoo_> ezebe: in gnome configurations - within apps -> metacity
[04:34] <ezebe> thanks
[04:34] <onats> ikonia, ok thanks!

[04:35] <DeadLock> I want to reformat a harddrive from the commandline. Is there a way?
[04:35] <Dr_willis> DeadLock,  you wish to totally erase the hard drive? thats doable.
[04:35] <ikonia> DeadLock: yup, what file system do you want
[04:35] <DeadLock> ext3.
[04:35] <stefg> DeadLock: a hardrive or just a partition?
[04:35] <renzo17> DeadLock: parted, but make sure drive is unmounted first
[04:35] <erUSUL> DeadLock: make partitions? reformat filesystems?
[04:35] <ikonia> DeadLock: mke2fs -j /dev/$harddisk_name
[04:35] <renzo17> DeadLock: or use gparted livecd, can have gui without installing it to disk then
[04:35] <DeadLock> fdisk -l wills how if it mounted or no?
[04:35] <onats> renzo17, thanks!
[04:35] <ikonia> DeadLock: with sudo
[04:36] <Dr_willis> DeadLock,  mount command. :)
[04:36] <Dr_willis> theres several linux-harddrive-howtos that detail the basics.
[04:36] <cooc> Daverocks - is it possible to convert my current Ubuntu installation to 64 without a complete reinstall? :)
[04:36] <Dr_willis> partition the hd. format the partitions. mount them whever ya want.
[04:36] <Daverocks> cooc: no ;)
[04:36] <Daverocks> cooc: every binary is different
[04:37] <Frogzoo_> cooc: stick with 32
[04:37] <grungehead> why does the gnome VPN-Network manager delete my DNS settings at a connection?
[04:37] <Frogzoo_> cooc: how much swap did you configure?
[04:37] <cooc> Well, boo hoo :( This is a bit frustrating. I know something isn't right but it's hard to describe and I don't know what to check.
[04:37] <cooc> 4GB

[04:38] <Soupy> Does anyone use terminal services for ubuntu? Ive installed FreeNX but looking for something else thats easier/better Map drives etc remotely?
[04:38] <cooc> A lot of different applications seem to run slow. Sometimes they go fine and sometimes they go really slow. Not from reboot to reboot but through one session

[04:39] <radu> what is the proper wat to set the IOelevator to anticipatory at boot?
[04:39] <stefg> cooc: inspect the systemmonitor who's eating up the cpu cycles..... ati drivers are popuar to blame, too
[04:39] <barto> re bonjour j'aimerais savoir une petite chose ou je peut telecharger les codec pour que noatun marche pour ecouter un mp3 ou voir des video etc svp

[04:41] <cooc> I'm looking at it right now and nothing in particular is eating up anything. It's very strange but when I browse a website it will hang for a second before changing to the link I pressed

[04:42] <Jeruvy> ok, why does ubuntu installer see my drive as sde, but 'rescue mode' can't detect it?
[04:42] <DeadLock> I did S
[04:42] <DeadLock> mediapc@ubuntumedia:~$
[04:42] <DeadLock> Bah sorry. I did that command to turn my drive into ext and it still shows up as my old filesystem.
[04:43] <cooc> I'll take a look at the WebBrowsing in a minute. The feel of the system is just telling me that it's not a series of different problems but one interconnected one
[04:43] <DeadLock> I used 'sudo mke2fs -j /dev/sdc1'
[04:43] <ezebe> :Frogzoo_ i've had a look in gconf and the key is correctly assigned by the pfreferences app, it just doesnt do anything - it's being seen by the preferences app but not by the rest of the system or something. any other ideas?
[04:43] <Ward1983> what do i need to change this to? i'm on Feisty "XLIB = /usr/lib/libc.sa /usr/X386/lib/libX11.sa /usr/lib/libm.sa"
[04:43] <ikonia> DeadLock thats the right command
[04:43] <stefg> cooc: look at your memory usage. any swap involved yet?
[04:44] <Frogzoo_> ezebe: did you map that key in another app? like amarok?
[04:44] <ezebe> I dont think so, but it is amarok i'm using... i'll have a look thanks
[04:45] <cooc> Mem:   3370440k total,  3194336k used,   176104k free,    34856k buffers

[04:45] <cooc> That doesn't look right
[04:45] <cooc> I know for sure there's 4GB in there of pure hardware RAM
[04:46] <stefg> cooc: you'd need the server kernel to fully address 4GB
[04:46] <aantn> When using pbuilder it tells me ".pbuilderrc does not exist". Is that a problem?
[04:46] <Ward1983> 4GB :s
[04:46] <joq> how do I shrink partitions
[04:46] <joq> ?
[04:46] <cooc> Okay, I can probably live without that. What is eating all the RAM? No application on the list uses more than a few % of the total RAM and yet that paste shows it's full
[04:46] <Ward1983> overkill lol
[04:46] <Soupy> Does anyone use terminal services for ubuntu? What are my choices? I need to connect to my Ubuntu machine from work and have file access
[04:46] <ezebe> Frogzoo_: amarok has all shortcuts set to default, key still not readable by anything other than the prefs app
[04:47] <Frogzoo_> cooc: that's normal
[04:47] <usser> Soupy ssh is the way to go
[04:47] <stefg> cooc: so funny as it sounds. Too much Ram can be bad for performance
[04:47] <erUSUL> cooc: 2821244k <--- Disk cache
[04:47] <genii> cooc: Maybe your onboard video is using some
[04:47] <stefg> cooc: look at free -m
[04:47] <cooc> no onboard video
[04:47] <Soupy> usser I need the entire GUI not just folders
[04:47] <Ward1983> lol that would be funny, 4gb of ram and onboard video :d
[04:48] <cooc> I'm looking at free -m
[04:48] <Soupy> I want to control the desktop remotely from a session
[04:48] <Urilockz> My keyboard is messed up when I go into Xgl. the technical keys like #|"!$ are in different places. Any ideas?
[04:48] <toxic> hello, i'm looking for a howto or help for installing the intel graphic drivers (not the i810) on my ubuntu feisty...
[04:48] <usser> Soupy vnc is pretty cool )
[04:48] <Frogzoo_> cooc: just temporarily try disabling swap with 'sudo swapoff /dev/###'
[04:48] <stefg> cooc: nothing keeps you from installing the server kernel along the standard one and trying it.Grub will let you choose which kernel to boot. Would be interesting...
[04:48] <erUSUL> cooc: with 4Gb i will ook into using the server kernel or compiling one more suited to address all memory
[04:48] <rafaelscj> !vnc
[04:48] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[04:49] <Soupy> VNC is good, but VNC does nto resize for sessions etc.. My desktop is 1680x1050 and VNC makes it use that size
[04:49] <cooc> Allright, stefg and erUSUL. I'll look into that later. I'll try that command right now, Frogzoo_
[04:49] <usser> Soupy well most vnc clients support scaling
[04:49] <cooc> It says no such file or dir
[04:49] <cooc> oh i gotta find it
[04:50] <Vlet> Soupy: Have a look at this: http://www.movingtofreedom.org/2007/02/16/howto-remote-desktop-with-vnc-in-ubuntu-edgy-gnu-linux/

[04:51] <usser> Soupy i only login remotely to an existing x session so i use x11vnc
[04:52] <rafaelscj> Soupy, why don't you use just FTP?

[04:53] <rafaelscj> Soupy, i used SSH...
[04:54] <usser> rafaelscj he wants gui too )
[04:54] <bunderburg> or to enable swap on HD while using live cd
[04:54] <Soupy> SSH allows just folder access

[04:55] <usser> Soupy use vnc, krfb is cool too easy to setup
[04:55] <Pici> codeshah: How did you install the program?
[04:55] <Pici> !freenx | Soupy
[04:55] <Soupy> Pici im using freeNX do you use it?
[04:55] <ubotu> Soupy: FreeNX is advanced remote desktop technology. For more information and install instructions, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[04:55] <codeshah> Pici: i dont recall installing it ... its in the synaptic manager ...
[04:56] <Soupy> I have some featurees I can not use
[04:56] <Pici> Soupy: I have never used it, sorry.
[04:56] <darkriser> codeshah: apt-get remove purge <name>
[04:56] <codeshah> pici, I just want apache
[04:56] <codeshah> but nginx is in the way it sems
[04:56] <codeshah> darkriser, lemme try
[04:56] <Soupy> it almost works but I can not copy paste from ubuntu to my work XP machine
[04:56] <Soupy> sounds stupid but I need that fucntion
[04:56] <Soupy> I wish I could just use RDP to connect to Ubuntu session :)
[04:56] <ticked> good morning all
[04:57] <codeshah> darkriser, no luck ...
[04:57] <ticked> yesterday compiz-fusion killed my Ubuntu, every time i try to open something it starts to open then nothing is there...
[04:57] <codeshah> this nginx thing is annoying ... it restarts every time I try to remove it
[04:57] <darkriser> codeshah: any msg?
[04:58] <Soupy> ubotu do you use FreeNX?
[04:58] <Ward1983> ticked, you load compiz-fuion on boot?
[04:58] <codeshah> http://pastie.caboo.se/94901
[04:58] <cooc> ticked try alt+f2 and then type "compiz --replace --indirect-rendering"
[04:58] <Pici> Soupy: ubotu is not a human, it is a bot.
[04:58] <codeshah> darkriser, http://pastie.caboo.se/94901 ...
[04:58] <codeshah> Stopping nginx: invoke-rc.d: initscript nginx, action "stop" failed.
[04:58] <cooc> I made a special shortcut for that and it works for me
[04:58] <Ward1983> ticked, you can still login and everything?
[04:58] <samtb> hi, i've got built-in gigabit ethernet provided by broadcom 5788, doesn't seem to be detected or work with "modprobe tg3"
[04:58] <codeshah> subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[04:58] <samtb> i can't even see it on lspci
[04:58] <ticked> cool cooc thanksi i will try that
[04:58] <idiot> does a real-time kernel come pre-compiled in feisty fawn?
[04:59] <Soupy> DOH!
[04:59] <darkriser> codeshah: first try update-rc.d nginx remove
[04:59] <ticked> Ward1983 nope i diddnt
[04:59] <erUSUL> samtb: do 'sudo update-pciids' and try lspci again
[04:59] <darkriser> codeshah: then something like sudo /etc/init.d/nginx stop
[04:59] <codeshah> update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/nginx exists during rc.d purge (use -f to force)
[05:00] <Ward1983> ticked, to unload compiz-fusion do alt-F2 and type metacity --replace
[05:00] <darkriser> codeshah: so try -f switch :)
[05:00] <codeshah> yeah :)
[05:00] <ticked> what i want to know tho is, i want to put the i386 version of Ubuntu 7.04 instead of the AMD-64. can i just reinstall or will that mess up grub?
[05:00] <samtb> but shouldn't it list raw pci ids for unknown ones?
[05:00] <codeshah> ok its done ... now remove again?
[05:00] <codeshah> aaah
[05:00] <codeshah> didn work
[05:00] <codeshah> argh
[05:00] <darkriser> codeshah: no, try to stop the service
[05:01] <codeshah> i did
[05:01] <codeshah> the service was stopped
[05:01] <SuperLag> ticked: grub is part of the install process, so you can redo your bootloader
[05:01] <rafaelscj> how many clients does windows's vpn server support?
[05:01] <renzo17> ticked: it will resetup grub for you when you install i386
[05:01] <darkriser> and update-rc.d worked?
[05:01] <codeshah> darkriser, yeah that it said
[05:01] <codeshah> removing any system startup links....
[05:01] <usser> rafaelscj win2003 server supports up to 1000
[05:01] <darkriser> great
[05:01] <darkriser> remove now
[05:01] <codeshah> then sudo /etc/init.d/nginx stop .. . it wasn in there
[05:01] <lumpki> ticked, just install the new kernel
[05:01] <lumpki> and reboot
[05:01] <codeshah> darkriser, same error ... and nginx restarted :(
[05:01] <ticked> SuperLag and renzo17 awsome, i thought it would but i was worried
[05:02] <darkriser> the start-up script must be somewhere:)
[05:02] <codeshah> yeah ... can I search for it somehow ? Hmm whre could it be
[05:02] <darkriser> try which nginx
[05:02] <rafaelscj> usser, winXP suports up to 10, right?
[05:02] <codeshah> /usr/sbin/nginx
[05:02] <ticked> lumpki that is alittle passed me rightnow....still supernewbie here
[05:02] <lumpki> ticked, use synaptic...
[05:03] <ticked> had ubuntu on for two days and managed to kill it
[05:03] <usser> rafaelscj i dont think winxp is equipped with vpn server
[05:03] <lumpki> well, if your at that stage, i guess reinstall
[05:03] <rafaelscj> usser, yes, it is. XP pro
[05:03] <mosno> is qemu-make-debian-root broken in feisty for a base feisty install image? /usr/sbin/qemu-make-debian-root: 81: cannot open /tmp/mount.11888/etc/inittab: No such file
[05:04] <mosno> ie. maybe the script doesn't know about upstart
[05:04] <rafaelscj> usser, may you connect to my vpn server?
[05:04] <Pici> rafaelscj: If you have a Windows question, I suggest you ask in ##windows
[05:04] <ticked> i could try using synaptic but then i have to try to figure out how to get firefox back to its original state, i guess that would be fairly doable tho eh?
[05:04] <Ward1983> ticked, next time maybe you can choose a tutorial which doesnt allready load compiz-fusion on boot, its also better to be abel to switch (sometimes video can give troubles, etc)
[05:05] <usser> heh
[05:05] <ticked> i dont think the tutuorial had me load compz-fusion on boot but i could recheck
[05:05] <Ward1983> ticked, then what exactly is wrong with your comp? i'm a bit confused lol
[05:05] <ticked> PEBCAK
[05:05] <Howitzer> Hiya all
[05:05] <Ward1983> ticked, also, what tutorial did you use?
[05:05] <Soupy> why does my screen constantly close when in VNC sessions? like after 15 secs?
[05:06] <codeshah> darkriser, no other thoughts eh?
[05:06] <darkriser> codeshah: uhm....and did u stop the service?
[05:06] <rafaelscj> how do I to connect to a vpn sever from Ubuntu?
[05:06] <ticked> Ward1983 when i restart ubuntu and try to open something i see that it starts to open then nothing...wait one and i will check that turorial and show ya
[05:06] <codeshah> darkriser, /etc/init.d/nginx stop?
[05:06] <darkriser> did it work?
[05:07] <Ward1983> ticked, ok, not sure if i can help, but i installed compiz-fusion at least 5 times 2 weeks ago or so
[05:07] <codeshah> darkriser, no ... the service stopped ... when i did apt-get remove --purge nginx, it restarted again .
[05:07] <usser> rafaelscj well the way i remember it it only supports remote modem connection or connectio through serial line
[05:07] <darkriser> and sudo update-rc.d nginx remove did work?
[05:08] <usser> rafaelscj for real vpn u may use openVPN
[05:08] <codeshah> yeah
[05:09] <Xteven> hi, can anyone help me debug networkmanager ?
[05:09] <codeshah> darkriser, yeah ... im gonna start removing stuff from this machine ... maybe its some weird dependenci
[05:09] <darkriser> this means the service shouldn't start after next reboot
[05:09] <Xteven> I'm connected to network (obviously), but the network manager is still looking for an IP address
[05:09] <darkriser> so try toreboot and remove it
[05:09] <rafaelscj> usser, there is tunneling for vpn connections.
[05:09] <ticked> i used this turorial http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/techblog/article/enable_compizfusion_in_ubuntu_feisty/  and when it loaded i had no windows borders so i was trying some fixes on that page and ubunto locked up when i tried this compiz --replace then when i booted up again my problem was there.
[05:09] <Xteven> one of the 2 dots is green, the other isn't
[05:09] <Ward1983> ticked, and you also tried alt-F2 and then typed metacity --replace ?
[05:09] <usser> <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:10] <ticked> Ward1983 i tried each of the fixes there one at a time untill compiz --replace
[05:10] <codeshah> darkriser, thanks
[05:11] <techjimbo> any1 have any problems printing from firefox?  the text prints small.
[05:11] <zhanx> ok i have the supplied rpm from higher for activCard Common Access Card (CAC), i ran alien and converted them without srcipts. the program runs but cant find the card reader, but i see it in lsusb
[05:12] <dcox> #apsc
[05:12] <dcox> how do you join a netwook
[05:12] <Vlet> Xteven: That generally means you've connected, but can't get an IP
[05:12] <zhanx> i am converting with alien and this time with scripts or is that a waste of time?
[05:13] <Vlet> Xteven: are you on wireless? Are you sure your password is correct and/or you're using the right type of authentication?
[05:13] <Ward1983> ticked, untill compiz --replace ? lol did you try metacity --replace or not
[05:13] <Ward1983> ?
[05:13] <dcox> join #apsc
[05:13] <ticked> hmm if its on that site i did, lemme look.
[05:13] <Ward1983> ticked, and can i have the tutorial link please?
[05:14] <Ward1983> ticked, no wait lol
[05:14] <Ward1983> ticked, metacity --replace is to UNLOAD compiz-fusion
[05:14] <Xteven> Vlet: I'm on wired network
[05:14] <zhanx> is there a chatroom out there for CAC cards and linux?
[05:14] <ticked> Ward1983 no it dont look likei tried metacity --replace
[05:14] <jiam> Xteven: where do you think is the problem then?
[05:14] <Xteven> Vlet: but /etc/init.d/networking already fixed my IP, I don't know what networkmanager is still trying to do
[05:14] <SuperLag> Guys, I need help with cron. I don't have a lot of time to devote to the issue. Anyone have an Amazon Wishlist item that they want? http://pastie.caboo.se/94989
[05:15] <Ward1983> ticked, then just try it now, that shoudl unload compiz and make your system work again, then you can try and fix it from there
[05:15] <zhanx> !info CAC
[05:15] <Xteven> do networkmanager and /etc/network/interfaces work together nicely ?
[05:15] <realnewguy> hey guys, everytime i try install a GTK 2.X theme it says "the file format is invalid" why is this?
[05:15] <ubotu> Package cac does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:15] <Vlet> Xteven: maybe it's confused :) Maybe try logging out and back in and see if it's still confused
[05:15] <Xteven> Vlet: I rebooted, and the problem was still there
[05:16] <n3tfury> ticked: if that fails you an you have to start over, use this tutorial instead http://forlong.blogage.de/article/2007/8/26/The-best-way-to-install-Compiz-Fusion-on-Ubuntu-Feisty
[05:16] <Xteven> does networkmanager have a log or a verbose setting ?
[05:16] <realnewguy> does ubuntu fiesty come with gtk 2.x?
[05:16] <jiam> Xteven: they do both work nicely
[05:16] <ticked> Ward1983 i have to leave now i a gonna be over where that computer is in a little bit, i will drop back in here then right after i try metacity --replace
[05:16] <ticked> thanks a ton and i will be back on here soon as i can
[05:16] <Xteven> jiam: together too ?
[05:17] <n3tfury> ticked: if that fails you an you have to start over, use this tutorial instead http://forlong.blogage.de/article/2007/8/26/The-best-way-to-install-Compiz-Fusion-on-Ubuntu-Feisty
[05:17] <jiam> Xteven: yes
[05:17] <Xteven> hmm
[05:17] <Ward1983> ticked, aaaah you're not at the computer :-) that's why i was confused
[05:17] <pdlnhrd> is there anybody with scsi knowledge that can tell me if a ultra320 drive would work in a ultra160 port but just at the lower speed?
[05:17] <n3tfury> lol
[05:17] <jiam> Xteven: where do you think is the problem then?
[05:17] <Xteven> jiam: then how come I have an IP address, but networkmanager think I don't ?
[05:17] <SEJeff> Lenovo wants to know what distribution you think they should ship on thinkpads next
[05:17] <SEJeff> http://lenovoblogs.com/insidethebox/?p=98 vote for Ubuntu
[05:17] <ticked> thanks n3tfury i will try that
[05:17] <codeshah> darkriser, hmm no luck ...
[05:17] <brokenboxen> i have a box with a broken CD drive. is there a way to open it? I can't use right-click-->eject because there's no CD mounted.
[05:18] <ticked> thanks for all the help guys i will be back soon as i am at that computer
[05:18] <n3tfury> np man, best compiz-fusion tut i've seen :)
[05:18] <n3tfury> GL
[05:18] <Xteven> jiam: I think the problem is that networkmanager looks somewhere it shouldn't look, for an existing network config
[05:18] <Vlet> Xteven: searching ubuntu forums... can't find anything related... but you are connected right? maybe just life with it for now... especially if you have a static IP - you could just disable the network manager :)
[05:18] <genii> pdlnhrd: Yes they work fine on any SCSI controller.
[05:18] <jiam> Xteven: i dont why..but do you see any problem of connectivity?
[05:18] <ticked> hopefully not in XP but in ubuntu LOL
[05:18] <n3tfury> =]
[05:18] <pdlnhrd> genii:  thanks... it is hard to find big ultra160 drives
[05:18] <Xteven> Vlet: well, I use dhcp and things work
[05:18] <genii> pdlnhrd: Yeah I know.
[05:18] <zegevrijt> Dutch consumer organisations . gets thousands of complaints about windows vista and has recomended people to look at ubuntu :)    was in dutch news today.. ..  is that worth some champagne?
[05:18] <Xteven> Vlet: but I can't help to wonder if networkmanager will think that all is lost at some point, and try to reset my network
[05:19] <Xteven> jiam: not yet
[05:19] <jiam> Xteven: where is the issue really? you can not connect?
[05:19] <Xteven> the issue is that networkmanager is not managing my network
[05:19] <mosno> lol "Debian" -- does this mean that Lenovo are allowed to ship with a non-Debian kernel to support newer hardware?
[05:19] <Xteven> it's doing *something* but I have no idea what
[05:19] <kaptengu> how can I change folder for received files with gnome-obex-server?
[05:19] <mosno> re. SEJeff's link
[05:19] <jiam> Xteven: then dont rely on it, use the command line and use of route or ip command
[05:19] <Urilockz> I tried mounting an iso with gisomount and the disk was not detected, is there a better iso mounting tool I can get?
[05:19] <Xteven> and in the meantime, I already have an IP address and connected to the network
[05:19] <Vlet> Xteven: well, not to say that this isn't a problem/bug, but you could go to your Preferences->Session and disable network manager from starting
[05:20] <Xteven> what use is networkmanager then ?
[05:20] <SEJeff> mosno, It probably means stock Debian. Maybe etch?
[05:20] <Xteven> i thought it was one of the top new features in 7.04
[05:20] <SEJeff> Xteven, roaming and wireless
[05:20] <jiam> Xteven: you can purge the route tables cache
[05:20] <Xteven> are you saying I should disable it ?
[05:20] <SuperLag> zegevrijt: is there an English translation of that announcement?
[05:20] <jiam> Xteven: i say use other tools to confirm what you have..dont rely on one
[05:20] <kaptengu> I don't want files to be received to Desktop...so how can I change folder for received files with gnome-obex-server?
[05:21] <mosno> SEJeff: ie. im running Feisty and the kernel in it is too old for my hardware -- so I dont see this working for new laptops, but they'd probably pick older lappies
[05:21] <Xteven> jiam: and how should I do that ?
[05:21] <SEJeff> mosno, You might try Gutsy once they release the beta at the end of the month
[05:21] <SuperLag> mosno: what do you mean it's too old for your hardware?
[05:21] <jiam> Xteven: learn the usage of ifconfig, route and the ip command
[05:21] <SEJeff> mosno, It works flawlessly on my T60
[05:21] <mosno> SEJeff: i tried a Tribe a month ago, I think i'll just wait for the stable release of Gutsy
[05:21] <Xteven> jiam: I don't think you understand the situation
[05:22] <Xteven> my problem is not that I can't get on the network, because I am connected
[05:22] <Xteven> and I know how to use all the networktools
[05:22] <mosno> SuperLag: it's a Santa Rosa laptop from Asus -- i had to build a <IP_ADDRESS> vanilla to get ether and wifi working
[05:22] <Xteven> but networkmanager for whatever reason, thinks I'm not connected
[05:22] <neverblue> morning
[05:22] <mosno> SuperLag: and with the wifi i had to grab iwlwifi and its firmware too
[05:22] <jiam> Xteven: do you rely on one tool to tell you things or you use other tools to confirm ?
[05:22] <SuperLag> mosno: what drivers is it using?
[05:22] <Xteven> and I want to know why
[05:22] <Xteven> jiam: do you see how I am talking to you ?
[05:22] <n3tfury> lol
[05:23] <n3tfury> wth
[05:23] <Xteven> jiam:  I am online
[05:23] <Xteven> and network works
[05:23] <Xteven> I need no tools to confirm that
[05:23] <Vlet> Xteven: Well, seems no one here knows why... I'd suggest searching the forums
[05:23] <jiam> Xteven if you believe its the nm then you can submit a bug report
[05:23] <mosno> SuperLag: ooh i like ether *was* supported in Feisty default kernel, it was just the wifi... *shrug* maybe i could have applied the patch to the default kernel, i just found it easier to patch against vanilla
[05:23] <Xteven> Vlet: ok, thx for the help
[05:23] <mosno> s/i like//
[05:24] <dcox> hello
[05:24] <JohnStys> i need help installing my ATI graphics card, all tht happens when i install driver is my xserver crashes, have tried all tutorials and drivers from all sources ( including the vendor) and nothing seems to work. please help me

[05:25] <jaime> flash doesnt work in firefox after Ive gone to a website that has quicktime videos, does anyone know whats up?
[05:25] <mosno> jaime: restart the browser (make sure the process dies)?
[05:25] <Vlet> JohnStys: When it crashes, it asks if you want to see the error messages... what does it say?
[05:25] <jaime> yeah I do that, but I want to fix it, not just work around it
[05:26] <Vlet> JohnStys: The relevant message should be near the bottom
[05:26] <JohnStys> device not found is all that i understand from it
[05:26] <mosno> jaime: nfi, browsers are evil
[05:26] <mosno> ie. the web is evil
[05:27] <jaime> I'm on gorillamask.net and I'm watching vids, and about every tenth vid is quicktime and I'm tired of having to close firefox and reopen it
[05:27] <kev_b> r irc.finalgear.com
[05:27] <stefg> JohnStys: so take 1.) a deep breath, b.) a systematic approach :-) First, what card do you have? (lspci | grep VGA)

[05:28] <JohnStys> I have a ATI Radeon x1300 VisionTek ( 256mb of gddr2 memory)
