[07:00] <egc> tonyyarusso: that would explain the "Operation not permitted." message i get when trying to alter the perms ;)
[07:00] <DaemonLee> Aight folks. First question of the day. Why does FF freeze on flash/YouTube Videos and so forth?
[07:00] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: how do I find out which one i use?
[07:00] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: you on gnome? if so, metacity
[07:00] <SpencerStarnes> tonyyarusso: Yeah, basicly the only thing I really want this for is personal remote back up. I have a mac, and WebDAV would be amazingly useful, as I can have that automaticly mount for me.
[07:01] <jussi01> !fffc | DaemonLee
[07:01] <ubotu> DaemonLee: If Firefox is crashing on sites using Flash try adding "export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1" to /etc/firefox/firefoxrc (ref: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/14911 )
[07:01] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: ubuntu 7.10. I do have a tab under that says 'about gnome'
[07:01] <acu> hey guys, I want to setup a webserver, ftp server and email server in one box - should I setup lvm for each /var/www     /var/mail    var/ftp ?
[07:01] <DaemonLee> jussi01, thanks.
[07:02] <kindofabuzz> where'd that chaos guy go? it took 2 seconds to google gaim xfire
[07:03] <mechanicalchris> when i upgrade to ubuntu 8.0 am i ganna lose everything?
[07:03] <Josh2> I have a couple of questions about my external hard drive
[07:03] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: learn 7.10 first =)
[07:03] <tonyyarusso> mechanicalchris: a) it will be 8.04, not 8.0, b) not if you do it right.
[07:03] <Josh2> what is the best formatting option for an external drive, ext2 or ext3?
[07:04] <earl> does anyone know a lot about powernowd?
[07:04] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: fair enough. sure wish it was easier to rotate my screen though
[07:04] <bboymc> hi
[07:05] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris do you have the compiz manager installed?
[07:05] <mechanicalchris> do i get that from the repository or online?
[07:05] <kindofabuzz> repository
[07:05] <mechanicalchris> im on it
[07:06] <r00723r0> Every time I click on the show desktop button on my task bar, gnome-panel freezes up and I can't open gnome-terminal.
[07:06] <r00723r0> What does it mean?
[07:06] <tomi> hello
[07:06] <bboymc> A
[07:07] <sirjoebob> hey all.... going through driver hell... running dell vostro 1500 w/ gutsy. messed up resolution and decided to uninstall/reinstall restricted nvidia driver. only problem is that screens and graphics keeps resetting it to vesa.... can i uninstall/reinstall screens and graphics or anyone have any ideas???
[07:07] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: I want the "Advanced Desktop Setting: Configure Compiz withCompizConfig" download right?
[07:07] <unop> Josh2, ext3 if you have sufficient space
[07:07] <tarelerulz> I am trying to get tapioca or Telepathy  to work for a client.  I  read tapioca support voice chat with gtalk .  So any one know of a client that use either or them ?
[07:07] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: yup
[07:08] <kindofabuzz> mmm tapioca
[07:08] <tarelerulz> From what I read tapioca is the framework not a client . I think
[07:08] <cr0mulent> my graphics are screwed up too. I have an integrated 845 intel chipset and I cant even get gnome working after I tried setting a new resolution for my new monitor.
[07:08] <Josh2> thanks, my drive is currently formatted ntfs but I don't want to lose the data on it.  I've made an ext3 partition on the end of the drive, can I move the files directly from one partition to another?
[07:08] <Josh2> or do I have to move them to my computer drive, then back to the external?
[07:09] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: its installed
[07:09] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: ok go to system > preferance > advanced desktop settings
[07:09] <unop> Josh2, best you copy the data locally first and then do what you have to do .. any data you haven't backed up is data you don't want.
[07:10] <talntid> pwnt
[07:10] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: yup
[07:10] <bastid_raZor> great.. netsplit..
[07:10] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: ok you want cube?
[07:10] <sirjoebob> hey all.... going through driver hell... running dell vostro 1500 w/ gutsy. messed up resolution and decided to uninstall/reinstall restricted nvidia driver. only problem is that screens and graphics keeps resetting it to vesa.... can i uninstall/reinstall screens and graphics or anyone have any ideas???
[07:10] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris:  first go to general settings up top there
[07:11] <r00723r0> Every time I click on the show desktop button on my task bar, gnome-panel freezes up and I can't open gnome-terminal. How do I fix this?
[07:11] <bastid_raZor> sirjoebob; start off with sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg .. during that you'll be able to select which driver you want to use
[07:11] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz:  yup
[07:11] <egc> how can i change the umask for an external usb drive formatted with FAT when it automounts?
[07:12] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: desktop size =4
[07:12] <Jlalk> When is 8.04 going to be out, approx?
[07:12] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: desktop size > horiz. =4
[07:12] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: im trying to rotate my monitor vertical
[07:12] <mechanicalchris> oh sorry
[07:12] <unop> r00723r0, this is worth a try, at a terminal try this command - sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome-panel
[07:13] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: oh i just thought you wante the cube
[07:13] <legend2440> Jlalk: 4/24
[07:13] <unop> egc, FAT has no concept of permissions, so a umask will always fail on a FAT volume
[07:13] <kindofabuzz> mechanicalchris: just play around, you got all your compiz stuff now
[07:13] <StevenX> can anyone point me to a primer on customizing my desktop to make it look cool?
[07:13] <Jlalk> legend2440: I am thinking about changing from Windows to Ubuntu.. Should I just wait on that release , being "so soon" to it?
[07:13] <r00723r0> unop, I will try that.
[07:13] <Jlalk> er..
[07:14] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: im trying to rotate. i WENT TO THE ROATATE TABE AND IT HAS THE OPTION BUT NO BUTTON TO HIT
[07:14] <unop> egc, didnt you just find out that FAT has no permissions?
[07:14] <mechanicalchris> sorry bout the caps.
[07:14] <legend2440> Jlalk: hard to say there may be bugs for first few months in Hardy
[07:14] <mechanicalchris> kindofabuzz: i think its very difficult to do in ubuntu. several pros ive chatted with havent had any luck
[07:14] <egc> unop: ok, so I'm a little confused.  I'm using unison to sync two directories, but one is on an external drive.  When unison tries to modify the files on the FAT filesys it fails...so im looking for a workaround.
[07:15] <StevenX> Can anyone tell me what gconf-editor is?
[07:15] <unop> StevenX, its like the registry editor on windows.
[07:15] <StevenX> How would i follow this command: In gconf-editor, set apps->avant-window-navigator->bar->bar_angle to -1.
[07:15] <StevenX> unop, how do I get to it?
[07:15] <Jlalk> legend2440: true.. I am finding less and less reasons to keep staying on windows, when it just keeps going slower and slower.
[07:15] <amenado> StevenX an editor for the GConf configuration system
[07:15] <KrisWood> Hi all, I've got a problem with vnc4server. Every time I try to log in from windows I have to go to my ubuntu machine and click the "allow" button on the dialog that comes up. This somewhat defeats the purpose of a vnc server in the first place. Any ideas how to skip this dialog box so it lets me log right in without confirmation?
[07:16] <r00723r0> unop, I think it helped.
[07:16] <unop> egc, I don't know what unison is.. but isnt there a way to tell it to detect that the destination filesystem is a FAT one?
[07:16] <Jlalk> legend2440:I was told Linux doesn't "tear down" like Windows?
[07:17] <unop> StevenX, type gconf-editor at a terminal
[07:17] <StevenX> unop, thanks.
[07:17] <CVD-PR> hey
[07:18] <egc> unop: hmm, it seems there's not
[07:19] <legend2440> Jlalk: well you could  dual boot windows and ubuntu to make sure all your hardware works with ubuntu
[07:19] <unop> egc, guess you'll have to use nautilus after all
[07:19] <StevenX> I am loving ubuntu more and more by the minute. I think the only reason to go back to Vista is to do serious productivity stuff. Linux Office Suites can't really touch what MS can offer, but I love everything else about ubuntu.
[07:19] <Jlalk> legend2440: i tried, but I kept getting my space going to "Unusable space" and booting from an external USB2 ran VERY slow.
[07:19] <amenado> KrisWood-> did you click on the security settings ask for confirmation?
[07:20] <egc> unop: nautilus as in drag/drop from one to the other?
[07:20] <Jlalk> My space going to unusable, before I could make a swap, that is.  I would get the ext3 in
[07:20] <unop> egc, aye
[07:20] <KrisWood> amenado, no clue what that means :(
[07:20] <Jlalk> but then I couldn't use the 'unusable space' for swap
[07:21] <amenado> KrisWood-> you look at preference->remote desktop ?
[07:21] <Jlalk> I currently have 3 partitions, 2 are Dell's system restore, and system utilities, then the main space (NTFS)
[07:21] <egc> unop: ahh, its many gigs worth of stuff so i'll need to figure out an automated way to do this.  I may have to reformat the external drive as ext3, in order to keep them sync'd.
[07:21] <egc> thanks tho
[07:21] <Jlalk> After I resized the main space, NTFS, I was able to make ext3 in the new free space, but then , for some reason, all the left over space went to 'unusable'
[07:22] <KrisWood> amenado, trying that now :)
[07:22] <unop> egc, you can always run this command.. rsync -av /source/dir /dest/dir
[07:22] <KrisWood> amenado, that was it! :D thanks!
[07:22] <applecucumber> In Ubuntu, how do I use CLI to search for where a program is located? (for example, gxine) Is there a way to make a bash command to open a program by just typing its name in? thanks
[07:22] <kindofabuzz> applecucumber: whereis
[07:22] <applecucumber> thanks
[07:22] <egc> unop: yup, unison is built on top of rsync, to go in both directions.  But you're right, that may work for now
[07:23] <Jlalk> I even tried resizing the new ext3 down even more , to make more room for swap
[07:23] <Jlalk> But it kept saying "unusable"
[07:24] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk: I had a drive once that wouldn't take more than 5 partitions
[07:25] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: Maybe that's the issue?
[07:25] <zool|work> hi
[07:25] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:Is it possible to put the Dell stuff on a dvd ? and get rid of thos parts ?
[07:25] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I don't think so.
[07:26] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I was thinking about reformating windows soon , with system restore.  So, I figured I would give Ubuntu a try first
[07:27] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk: If you're going to do that anyway, then try Ubuntu without Windows, see if that works
[07:27] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:you can always put Windows back if you really wanted to
[07:27] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: yeah.  My concern seems to only be if printer sharing is going to work right
[07:27] <applecucumber> I found gxine by typing "whereis gxine". its in /usr/bin. I tried typing "./usr/bin/gxine" and it wouldn't open. instead i had to cd to that directory and type gxine. Is there a way to just open a program while being in a remote folder? thanks!
[07:27] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk: works great for me
[07:27] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I know I could get file sharing to work.
[07:27] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I did it on my old system before I got this one , with Xubuntu.
[07:27] <tritium> applecucumber: eliminate that leading .
[07:28] <bastid_raZor> applecucumber; do gxine by itself
[07:28] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: Even with one XP, and one Ubuntu ?
[07:28] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk: you know what - most things just work!
[07:28] <applecucumber> ok i'll try those ideas. thanks!
[07:28] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I am a person that wants things to just work.  But worry about them not.
[07:28] <Jlalk> lol
[07:28] <egc> unop: thanks for the help, i've gotta sign out.
[07:28] <tritium> applecucumber: the path is /usr/bin/gxine, with no "." in front.  Of course, /usr/bin/ is already in your path, so just typing "gxine" will work.
[07:29] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:got an ME machine, two Ubuntu machines, one Mac and one Win 200 server box, (about to be history) - and one old HP all in one
[07:29] <crackerjackz_> for some reason flash isnt working right in firefox
[07:29] <punzada> wait wait
[07:29] <punzada> you actually run ME on something?
[07:29] <Peddy> I can't see anything when I go Places>Network. Can someone please help me?
[07:29] <crackerjackz_> it was working before
[07:29] <Peddy> punzada: duh, its a toaster driver
[07:29] <applecucumber> oh ok thanks. I thought "./" means to run a program so i put the "./" at the beginning
[07:30] <crackerjackz_> i dont know whats going on now
[07:30] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: today I found an answer to my download manager issues.. wget.  I couldn't find any GUI program , or one that ran in windows, to copy the rapidshare cookie over, and have a schedular (spelling)
[07:30] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: now the printer is the only thing left to worry about
[07:30] <Get_A_Fix> punzada: sadly yeah - I refuse to pay for an OS again - but I have to run NeverWinter Nights Toolset, so I'm stuck
[07:31] <crackerjackz_> the only thing different iv done is updated from java5 to java6 but i dont see where that would have any thing with flash not working
[07:31] <punzada> god ... that poor hardware
[07:31] <punzada> just pirated something, if you got caught with that I think even microsoft would understand :|
[07:31] <punzada> lol
[07:31] <bastid_raZor> Get_A_Fix; possibly try VMWare to run windows.. i use windows 2k in VMware all the time for the wifes must have 'word perfect'
[07:32] <punzada> vmware is nice
[07:32] <punzada> virtualbox is nice as well
[07:32] <punzada> requires some love though
[07:32] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk: what kind of printer is it
[07:32] <crackerjackz_> any ideas?
[07:32] <punzada> I use virtualbox for work VMs of XP all the time
[07:32] <punzada> works great
[07:32] <Desempleada> HI
[07:32] <benanzo> Can a file be owned by more than one user or group?
[07:33] <Lunks> There are 2 thermal monitors for my CPU available: acpi/cpu and libsensors/core0
[07:33] <Get_A_Fix> bastid_raZor:I'll look into that - I'd love to dump you what altogether
[07:33] <Lunks> which one is more trustable?
[07:33] <Seveas> benanzo, no, but you can use ACL's
[07:33] <punzada> eh, all software ones seem to lie from my experience, get a case with a temp reading ;x
[07:33] <Get_A_Fix> punzada:I'll look at that too, thanks guys
[07:33] <Seveas> though that's not standard in Ubuntu
[07:33] <Lunks> punzada: it's a notebook. ;P
[07:34] <benanzo> Seveas where do I set an ACL for a specific file?
[07:34] <Lunks> Can't get another case, heh
[07:34] <punzada> fair enough :P lol
[07:34] <punzada> hmm, my notebook only reads acpi so I have to use that
[07:34] <applecucumber> I have an 6.06 Ubuntu which came with Firefox 1.5. I ended up downloading Firefox 2.0.12. However, when I type Firefox in CLI, it opens Firefox 1.5. Should I copy the Firefox program from the 2.0.12 folder to /usr/bin/ folder to replace the "firefox" in /usr/bin/ ? thanks!
[07:34] <Seveas> benanzo, very good question :) I fear google or searching the ubuntu wiki will help you more than I can
[07:34] <punzada> I don't think it's very accurate though
[07:34] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: the one in the living room , on the XP machine, is a Brother (something or other) fax/printer, and the one attached to this computer is a Dell Photo Printer 540
[07:34] <benanzo> Ok thanks
[07:34] <punzada> if you can pull sensor readings I would suggest going with that
[07:34] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: the one in the living room is a Brother FAX-1860C
[07:34] <bastid_raZor> applecucumber; yes
[07:35] <Lunks> punzada: libsensors' one is higher
[07:35] <bastid_raZor> applecucumber; you could uninstall 1.5FF then copy it over.
[07:35] <applecucumber> oh ok maybe i should unisntall 1.5.
[07:35] <Peddy> I can't see any shares in my Network menu (not even my own computer). I am using Samba. Any help please?
[07:35] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:I'd bet that they both just work
[07:35] <punzada> how much of a difference? what temps are reading? what kind of cpu load are you under right now?
[07:36] <bastid_raZor> applecucumber;  i currently have 3 different versions of firefox installed.. just named the bin something different .. firefox firefox1 firefox2
[07:36] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I know in windows all you do is 'find printer on network' , then it 'installs the drivers' .  But I don't see how it's going to install 'the drivers' if this computer is going to Ubuntu ?
[07:36] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:not sure about the fax part though, mine's a copier/scanner/printer and it all works well
[07:36] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I don't care about the fax mumbo jumbo, I'll go in the living room to do that.  I just want to use it for normal paper copies
[07:36] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:you can do a whole lot of forgetting about installing drivers with Ubuntu
[07:37] <applecucumber> oh ok maybe i should try that (naming it firefox2)
[07:37] <punzada> yup :)
[07:37] <applecucumber> not sure how to do it though hehe ;-)
[07:37] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I just want it to be able to print it's photos here, and me to print webpages, notes, etc , to it
[07:37] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:it even picked up the memory card reader in the printer
[07:38] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: interesting.
[07:38] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: I am finding less and less reasons to stay on windows, I found that even Quake3 and 4 will work
[07:38] <Viktor> hey how do i get the presets to work in audacous? i tried to load the eq.preset file, but no presets appear :S
[07:38] <applecucumber> Warcraft III works great in Ubuntu+Wine
[07:38] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:I did have to say that I wanted to add a Network Printer and tell it what kind, I think that was about it
[07:39] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:and NWN and Doom3
[07:39] <Jlalk> Even on the Xp machine?
[07:39] <punzada> I've played both WoW and CS 1.6 & Source through wine perfectly
[07:39] <applecucumber> Ya
[07:39] <Jlalk> I figure mIRC will run good under Wine, now that I have a fair processor , instead of a p2 450MHz ?
[07:39] <Yashy> I mounted an ntfs-3g partition with the force option. Now when I try to mount that disk on a windows box it won't let me mount it. Is there an easy fix? I've been stuck with chkdsk running for +6 hours hoping that might resolve it
[07:39] <Jlalk> All it did on the p2 was jump around channels, like some kind of dumb chicken , and lag
[07:39] <hischild> Jlalk: why not use a native program? (like pidgin, xchat or some other)
[07:40] <punzada> did you unmount it before trying to mount it in windows Yashy ?
[07:40] <Jlalk> hischild: cause of all the scripts I put in to mIRC
[07:40] <Yashy> no, I didn't unfortunately
[07:40] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:you'll find most things you want are already installed
[07:40] <punzada> You will have to boot back into nix, unmount it
[07:40] <hischild> Jlalk: you can also script in xchat
[07:40] <Jlalk> hischild: we're talking hours and hours
[07:40] <bullgard4> How can I obtain a list of the executable programs that belong to the 'GNOME system tools'?
[07:40] <punzada> and then mount it in windows
[07:40] <crackerjackz_> #gnome
[07:40] <crackerjackz_> i meant to do /join #gnome
[07:41] <Jlalk> Get_A_Fix: ok
[07:41] <Yashy> punzada: I've just tried to unmount it in linux and mount in windows with no luck
[07:42] <punzada> did it cleanly unmount in linux?
[07:42] <Jlalk> Should I convert my externals to FAT32 , or will NTFS be OK for Ubuntu , and I'm talking not getting correupt my some kind of 'strange oopsy writing' ?
[07:42] <Jlalk> by some kind*
[07:42] <Yashy> I'll try again, brb
[07:42] <Malachite-m> Hello all
[07:42] <punzada> Jlalk, the ntfs-3g driver is stable as hell now
[07:42] <punzada> feel free to use NTFS
[07:42] <Jlalk> punzada: ok.
[07:42] <Get_A_Fix> Jlalk:gotta go, thanks people.
[07:43] <bastid_raZor> Jlalk; http://www.fs-driver.org/ is the driver for windows to read ext2/3
[07:43] <Seveas> hell ain't stable ;0
[07:43] <Malachite-m> Anyone willing to give me a hand with an ALSA sound mixer problem on Gutsy?
[07:44] <punzada> I'd love to find out why my soundblaster card will randomly stop working, then after 30 or so reboots, start working again, and then repeat
[07:44] <punzada> ;x
[07:44] <Daisuke_Ido> poorly seated?
[07:44] <punzada> naw it's secure, that's one of the first things I looked at
[07:44] <punzada> I might change the slot it's in
[07:44] <punzada> see if I get better performance
[07:44] <punzada> I've just been lazy ;x
[07:45] <Daisuke_Ido> that would be another option...  i'm not a big fan of creative (any more)
[07:45] <punzada> yeah I built the pc back in 03
[07:45] <Daisuke_Ido> however, i do still have my good ol' SB16 isa card
[07:45] <punzada> I never use my card to the advantage it deserves
[07:45] <Daisuke_Ido> and my oh-lord-i-had-to-have-one roland mt-32
[07:46] <punzada> I listen to music on a 2.1 setup that any onboard system can do ;x
[07:46] <punzada> lol
[07:46] <bullgard4> Malachite-m:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[07:46] <Malachite-m> thanks, bullgard- I'll check that out
[07:46] <Daisuke_Ido> 7.1 surround here, and i only use 2.1
[07:46] <Yashy> not so good. chkdsk on windows seems to have deleted the contents on the 100GB partition
[07:46] <punzada> -.-
[07:46] <Daisuke_Ido> MS or not, chkdsk doesn't delete things
[07:46] <hades_> Hey, how do i find out your wireless cards chipset?
[07:47] <Daisuke_Ido> hades_, lspci?
[07:47] <Yashy> even with chkdsk /f /r ?
[07:47] <hades_> usb is lsusb?
[07:47] <Yashy> I'm pretty sure it did
[07:47] <Daisuke_Ido> if every sector was bad...
[07:47] <Daisuke_Ido> then i guess it's possible
[07:48] <applecucumber> Anyone know why if I open a program (eg gxine, firefox) with CLI, i cant close the terminal window without also causing the program to close? Is there a way to leave the program running with the terminal closed? thanks!
[07:48] <Daisuke_Ido> but highly unlikely that chkdsk is going to wipe the *entire* contents on a disk
[07:48] <Yashy> physically the disk is good, ubuntu mounting it could have altered the full partition table or something
[07:48] <Daisuke_Ido> applecucumber, program &
[07:48] <Daisuke_Ido> the & makes it run as a background process
[07:48] <Yashy> could also just be the tables are all wiped, hence why it looks empty
[07:48] <applecucumber> cool! thank you!
[07:48] <rafli> boss....bosss.. tolong join di xcat gimana?
[07:48] <Daisuke_Ido> plus, you should use exit at the terminal to close it
[07:49] <Daisuke_Ido> rather than the handy little x in the corner
[07:49] <Malachite-m> okay, new question: boot options noapic nolapic will disable ones' USB ports, correct?
[07:49] <rafli> wong indonesia ada ngga
[07:49] <Daisuke_Ido> it shouldn't
[07:49] <Daisuke_Ido> it disables power management
[07:49] <Daisuke_Ido> but i'm not 100% on that
[07:49] <Daisuke_Ido> so don't quote me
[07:50]  * punzada quotes and publishes
[07:50] <Malachite-m> hmm. well I have an interesting issue: my computer's USB ports do not work, and I had assumed it was because of that. in any case, does anyone have a handy USB troubleshooting link?
[07:50] <punzada> lol "D
[07:50] <DeadLy_sp__> anyone know DevilSpie?
[07:50] <LainIwakura> How do I edit /etc + visudo so that <user> is added to the 'tty' group and has default write permission to the /dev/pts/0 files?
[07:50] <Piet44> could someone tell me why the pcnet32 module is loaded by default in jeos 7.10
[07:51] <wartp> hi to all
[07:51] <Piet44> could someone tell me why the pcnet32 module is loaded by default in jeos 7.10 instead of the vmxnet module
[07:51] <wartp> anyone can help me
[07:51] <applecucumber> I tried typing "gxine &" and it opens gxine put terminal puts out "lirc: cannot initialize - disabling remote control ...." . I cant seem to close the terminal window and keep the program still running either. ideas? thanks!

[07:51] <Yashy> ugh, my entire parition table for the disk is fscked
[07:51] <Yashy> not just the ntfs partition
[07:51] <Daisuke_Ido> applecucumber, how did you close the window?
[07:52] <applecucumber> by clicking on the upper right hand corner X
[07:52] <Daisuke_Ido> that's why
[07:52] <Yashy> and I'm pretty sure it's from chkdsk /f /r
[07:52] <Daisuke_Ido> use the exit command
[07:52] <applecucumber> ok ill try that thanks

[07:54] <jay> hello everyone....could some one direct me to where I can find info on locating and installing flash media player for ubuntu?
[07:54] <rahul> no, I am using ethernet now
[07:54] <applecucumber> jay, flash for firefox?
[07:54] <punzada> VLC can handle flv files if I'm not mistaken
[07:54] <rahul> i tried many things
[07:54] <jay> yes firefox
[07:54] <rahul> like ndiswrapper and all but didnt work
[07:55] <punzada> oh, are you on 64 or 32 bit ubuntu jay?
[07:56] <applecucumber> http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash
[07:57] <jay> thanks for the assistance...just getting started in linux...so every bit up help means a lot
[07:57] <applecucumber> you can download it from that website and look under the tar.gz installation instructions. hope it works :-)
[07:57] <punzada> we all started somewhere :)
[07:57] <applecucumber> ya installing those plugins took some time hehe
[07:57] <rahul> ??
[07:58] <punzada> um, wait what? can't you just install flash from the repos?
[07:58] <jay> thanks again...I am off to work on it now...I will let you know
[07:58] <applecucumber> cool
[07:58] <otg> 阿罵
[07:58] <Malachite-m> so, I have USB music player/flash drive thing, shows up when I probe the USB ports, but it doesn't mount and doesn't seem to be recognized beyond the terminal level in any way. any ideas?
[07:58] <otg> v、
[07:59] <otg>
[07:59] <otg>  ㄇ
[07:59] <otg>
[07:59] <Jlalk> wtf
[07:59] <applecucumber> rahul, see if this website helps http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[07:59] <punzada> Jay, if installing from the tar.gz becomes complicated or you would like to go the more 'debian' route you can install it by typing 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree' in a terminal window
[08:00] <spiniker> help..i have installed hardy on my laptop using safe graphics mode,and im stuck with 800x600 resolution
[08:01] <spiniker> how can i adjust it?

[08:01] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[08:01] <punzada> wow it's coming up in april already
[08:01] <punzada> that's good stuff
[08:01] <alecwh> I'm trying to get the mail(); function to work on ubuntu, but I don't think ubuntu has a SMTP server. How do I install one?
[08:02] <_ruben> alecwh: sudo apt-get install postfix
[08:02] <alecwh> _ruben: is that it?
[08:02] <_ruben> alecwh: that'll install a mailserver (postfix) .. not sure if thats enough to make mail() work, though
[08:02] <x_> Hi All :-)   is there some program i can use for overclocking on graphic cards ?!
[08:03] <hischild_> I have a problem getting NFS to work. When i mount the /home folder, it defaults to /home/iositd instead of /home. Is this because i'm missing something?
[08:04] <Rozza> heh
[08:04] <applecucumber> x_ found a thread on ubuntu about graphics cards http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=175436
[08:05] <maek0> x_ NVIDIA OR ATI ??
[08:06] <applecucumber> that website was Nvidia
[08:06] <xaxxon> I have a 4-core system but when I run folding at home, it only wants to use about 2.5-3 cores.  It runs 4 processes, but they never take up 100% CPU each
[08:06] <xaxxon> they're all around 50-60%
[08:07] <alecwh> _ruben: Ok, I'm installing it, but it's asking me for a configuration. I don't have a domain connected with this server, I just am testing some scripts on localhost. What should I choose?
[08:07] <hischild_> xaxxon: can you set the amount of processes higher? like to 5 or 6?
[08:07] <jay> hey Punzada I l am new..so please tolerate my dumb questions but don't see the debian option..I see tar.gz,yum and rpm
[08:07] <xaxxon> not in the normal config...
[08:08] <punzada> Jay, you can install from a tar.gz on debian if you wish
[08:08] <_ruben> alecwh: not sure what they call it, but there's an option for "sending mail only"
[08:08] <punzada> but I would reccomend you get used to the debian 'apt-get' system
[08:08] <punzada> as it is *much* more beginner friendly
[08:08] <hischild_> xaxxon: i've seen that before and the only solution i could find was to manually increase the amount of spawned processes.
[08:09] <punzada> install it by typing 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree' in a terminal (without quotes) , it may ask you if the filesize to install is okay, answer yes and it should install it all for you without any further prompting
[08:09] <snake_> hello to all. i have a problem. i can not connect to my access point in wireless because knetworkmanager doesnt show any wireless connection. the strange thing is that i use wlassistant and it connects without any problem (i am using wlassistant now) can anyone help me with this please
[08:09] <jay> ok...I will do that now
[08:10] <hischild_> snake_: #kubuntu
[08:10] <alecwh> _ruben: these are the options: No configuration, Internet site, Internet with smarthost, Satellite system, Local only.
[08:10] <snake_> hischild_: you are right. sorry
[08:10] <hischild_> snake_: np
[08:10] <Plantain> Hey, my local ubuntu mirror limits connections and tempbans for 5 minutes if you exceed them, is there a way I can limit apt-get's connections?
[08:10] <bullgard4> How can I obtain a list of the executable programs that belong to the 'GNOME system tools'?
[08:11] <alecwh> _ruben: know which one it is?
[08:11] <hischild_> Plantain: apt creates multiple connections? afaik it just downloads one file at a time
[08:12] <hischild_> bullgard4: check what files are installed in /bin directory, which you can check in synaptic
[08:12] <amorphous> I'm trying to create an ssh mount accross the internet to use a server to store stuff on, but am concerned as to the availability of the whole of the hard drive to anyone using the mount. I've googled but am getting more confused in my searches (or just not good at search terms for sucha thing) - could anyone here offer any support? ---a search keyword?
[08:12] <Plantain> hischild_: Not from what I can see :/
[08:12] <hischild_> Plantain: can you explain a bit more?
[08:12] <ikonia> bullgard4: can you do a dpkg -c on the package ?
[08:12] <punzada> amorphous, the best things for you to do, is change the default port, and use an extremely secure password
[08:13] <hischild_> amorphous: if you can use SSH tunnels, you can use NFS shares.
[08:13] <sayap_ikarus> phita
[08:13] <punzada> I don't think there is much else you can do in the way of further securing an open ssh connection
[08:13] <ikonia> punzada ssh keys ?
[08:13] <ikonia> punzada: tcp wrappers ?
[08:13] <amorphous> hischild_, ssh tunnels? easy to set up, hischild_ ?
[08:13] <ikonia> punzada: allowed user list ?
[08:13] <Plantain> hischild_: If I visit the mirror in my browser while I'm tempbanned, I just get "IP Connection limit exceeded, tempbanning"
[08:13] <punzada> well allowed user list i figured was without saying
[08:14] <amorphous> punzada, hischild_ i'm using 'add network connection' and failtoban & RSA... that not enough?
[08:14] <hischild_> amorphous: IMO they're fairly easy to setup. Can you explain to me what you are concerned about?
[08:14] <ikonia> Plantain: your banned from using a mirror ?
[08:14] <Yashy> I have a large USB drive I want for two functions 1) share files with ubuntu/bsd/macosx 2) backup files those people can't access, recommendations?
[08:14] <maek0> what mirror is it Plantain  ???
[08:14] <hischild_> Plantain: odd. Why not use the normal ones
[08:14] <Plantain> filearena.net
[08:15] <ikonia> Yashy: use samba to share the files out, or NFS
[08:15] <_ruben> alecwh: im guessing "local only" or "satelite system" .. depending on if you want to be able to send out mail somewhere other than localhost
[08:15] <sintacto> pulseaudio + via audio controller?
[08:15] <ikonia> Plantain: filearena.net isn't an ubuntu mirror
[08:15] <bullgard4> ikonia: "detlef@MD97600:~$ LANG=C dpkg -c /usr/share/doc/gnome-system-tools/; dpkg-deb: error reading version number from file /usr/share/doc/gnome-system-tools/: Is a directory."
[08:15] <Plantain> hischild_: Because this is a local mirror, free download
[08:15] <hischild_> ikonia: it's via internet. Samba via internet is a bad idea
[08:15] <Yashy> ikonia: I mean to portably share files
[08:15] <alecwh> _ruben: hmm, let me try both
[08:15] <Plantain> ikonia: Maybe not an official one, but it's mirrored there...
[08:15] <amorphous> hischild_, the way i'm doing it at the moment it gives access to the root directory. I want them to be sort of 'chroot'ed into a data directory. tunnels the answer?
[08:15] <ikonia> hischild_: rsync
[08:15] <legend2440> bullgard4: network-admin
[08:15] <legend2440> services-admin
[08:15] <legend2440> shares-admin
[08:15] <legend2440> time-admin
[08:15] <legend2440> users-admin
[08:15] <FloodBot3> legend2440: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:15] <ikonia> Plantain: I had no idea
[08:16] <hischild_> amorphous: you can use NFS to give them access to a specific directory which will appear as a local directory (that's what i'm using at home now to sync my laptop and main box)
[08:16] <amorphous> punzada - i hear that - not default port & RSA
[08:16] <ikonia> hischild_: I would suggest things like fuse, but I'm not a fan of that over the internet either
[08:17] <hischild_> amorphous: securing that via the internet can be done via SSH tunnels (which is what i do to get access over the internet)
[08:17] <bullgard4> legend2440: Is this list complete?
[08:17] <hischild_> ikonia: i prefer nfs and ssh
[08:17] <ikonia> hischild_: I agree, but over the internet, seems a hassle to setup tunneling
[08:17] <legend2440> bullgard4: yes
[08:18] <bullgard4> legend2440: Thank you very much for your help.
[08:18] <maek0> is this going to be in Hardy: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=simple_ccsm&num=1 ????
[08:18] <sintacto> remove pulseaudio?
[08:18] <lipsin> .wc
[08:18] <hischild_> ikonia: just a single command line .... that counts as easy for me =)
[08:18] <amorphous> hischild - and with view to the future (after the daunting step 1 ;) - would you have advice on giving them access over the internet from a m$ machine? is that a samba job? only I'm having massive issues with an xp box accessing a home server here (and printer :( )
[08:19] <gatestone> How do I make gnome-terminal open full screen be default?
[08:19] <hischild_> amorphous: i'm sorry, i was under the impression you wanted linux to linux file sharing over the internet .... for windows you can use samba yes
[08:19] <ikonia> hischild_: the single commands not an issue, but to set it up securly on the server side is a bit over kill.
[08:19] <math> Hi, if I use 'yum' it complains about failing import python's cElementTree module, but if I do an 'aptitude install python2.5-celementtree' nothing is installed and the error remains
[08:20] <Hewus> Could someone tell me what package provides network-admin, and/or how to find this out myself?
[08:20] <hischild_> ikonia: http://www.revsys.com/writings/quicktips/ssh-tunnel.html   <-- which can be combined with key authentication
[08:20] <ikonia> hischild_: he said bsd and mac, not windows
[08:20] <ikonia> hischild_: his target is changing
[08:20] <sintacto> :-D
[08:21] <hischild_> ikonia: hm can't find that ... tnx for the reminder
[08:21] <sintacto> pulseaudio remove ?
[08:21] <hischild_> ikonia: read about 10 lines up, he wants xp?
[08:21] <ikonia> hischild_: ughhh, I missed it, intially he wanted BSD and mac
[08:22] <legend2440> Hewus: gnome-system-tools
[08:22] <amorphous> hischild_, you were right. I got a few machines I want linux-to-linux so all files on a central (linux) server. - once that's done I'm gonna have to make the files available to xp users from the (linux) server. that's where the samba's gonna come in, eh...
[08:22] <Hewus> legend2440: thank you
[08:22] <hischild_> amorphous: yes. linux to linux is using nfs, for linux to windows you can use samba
[08:23] <jscinoz> hey guys, i just reinstalled ubuntu, before i reinstalled i had changed something so that the usplash would show detailed messages under the progress bar, but i forgot what it was i changed... how can i get this back?
[08:23] <hischild_> ikonia: now we've got it =)
[08:23] <blankthewhattheh> How does one get the list of partitions by UUID?
[08:23] <ikonia> blankthewhattheh: blkid
[08:23] <amorphous> hischild_, thanks. good to feel the anxiety's slipping away a bit ;)
[08:24] <blankthewhattheh> thanks ike_x
[08:24] <blankthewhattheh> ff ikonia
[08:24] <hischild_> amorphous: anxiety? why? it's all fairly easy and you got us to help you ;-)
[08:24] <Erickj92> how do i get FireFox beta 4 on ubuntu?
[08:24] <ikonia> Erickj92: I don't think it's in the repo's
[08:24] <Erickj92> how do i get it though?
[08:25] <crackerjackz_> how do i install enlightenment?
[08:25] <MrBarrett> <--- just installed kubuntu and when i try to access my external usb hard drive it says... hal storage removable mount all options refused uid 1000.... what do i do?
[08:25] <ikonia> Erickj92: you'd have to download a pre-compiled binary package or build it your self
[08:25] <amorphous> hischild_, is samba good to go in gutsy, do you know? And do you also know if the firefox issues are sorted - I'm having to make a long drive today to re-install gutsy due to endless problems on an upgraded from feisty box.
[08:25] <ikonia> MrBarrett: it's trying to mount it as the user with a uid of 1000, look in /etc/passwd to see which user that is
[08:25] <hischild_> amorphous: IMO yes
[08:25] <amorphous> hischild_, help offer massively appreciated :D
[08:26] <amorphous> hischild_, thanks
[08:26] <hischild_> amorphous: it's all fairly easy to do (at least easier then in windows) and if you use a bit of logic you'll prevail
[08:26] <legend2440> jscinoz: if you install startupmanager in synaptic  there is an option to show text during boot
[08:26] <jscinoz> thanks
[08:27] <MrBarrett> ikonia wheres that?
[08:27] <ikonia> MrBarrett: where is what ?
[08:27] <MrBarrett> etc/passwe?
[08:27] <_maw> >.<
[08:28] <amorphous> hischild_, i'm off to read up on me NFS & tunneling, then my drive to cardiff to start afresh. Thanks for support - gives faith in the breed ;)
[08:28] <ikonia>  /etc/passwd - is a file called passwd in the /etc direcotry, hence /etc/passwd
[08:28] <hischild_> amorphous: http://www.revsys.com/writings/quicktips/ssh-tunnel.html for ssh
[08:28] <hischild_> amorphous: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/NFS-HOWTO/server.html for nfs
[08:28] <hischild_> amorphous: good luck :-)
[08:29] <amorphous> hischild_, and a fine day of all good things to yourself, sir :)
[08:29] <Erickj92> thanks ikonia, in downlading it now
[08:29] <Erickj92> im*
[08:29] <MrBarrett> where is etc?
[08:29] <hischild_> amorphous: that already happened ;-)
[08:29] <amorphous> punzada, thanks for help
[08:29] <hischild_> MrBarrett: in your root directory
[08:29] <punzada> anytime
[08:30] <amorphous> hischild_, more for tomorrow then :P
[08:30] <hischild_> amorphous: haha thanks :-)
[08:31] <ikonia> MrBarrett: ok - forget that, as it's clear your going to struggle to do this
[08:31] <ikonia> MrBarrett: open a terminal if you can and type "id" paste the one line response you get into this channel
[08:31] <toplok> do you know what option should I modify in Visual effects - custom preferences to avoid windows borders to get sticky to other windows ?
[08:32] <MrBarrett> id
[08:32] <hischild_> toplok: sticky windows should do ;-)
[08:32] <ikonia> MrBarrett: no - type that in a terminal, and paste the output into this window
[08:32] <toplok> i.e. if I move a terminal window, I don't want to get "joined" to the bottom border for a while
[08:32] <ericjones_>  toplok, disable in wobbley windows
[08:32] <MrBarrett> sorry
[08:33] <ericjones_> you can still have the wobble, just uncheck snap inverted or something like that
[08:33] <hischild_> ikonia: if you need more text from him, let him install pastebinit and pipe the text into that :-)
[08:33] <ikonia> MrBarrett: don't worry
[08:33] <ere4si> I need to get gnome-vfs module running so I can use gdesklets - how to install and run it pls
[08:33] <ikonia> hischild_: he can't open a file - installing packages at the moment is out of the question
[08:34] <blankthewhattheh> Another question, where does Ubuntu hide it's fonts folder?
[08:34] <MrBarrett> found passed
[08:34] <hischild_> ikonia: give him the correct liek --> sudo aptitude install pastebinit && | pastebinit (Please provice link in channel)
[08:34] <toplok> ericjones_, friction ?
[08:34] <hischild_> *link
[08:34] <MrBarrett> found passwd
[08:34] <ikonia> MrBarrett: just type id and give us the output
[08:35] <ericjones_> its snap inverted toplok, at the very top in wobbly windows
[08:35] <hischild_> ericjones_: snap windows
[08:35] <ericjones_> uncheck it
[08:35] <Jlalk> Oh yeah, one more thing before I make the switch, what is someting to monitor tempetures , like Speedfan in windows
[08:35] <hischild_> !sensors
[08:35] <ericjones_> he wants the wobble without being sticky i believe
[08:35] <ubotu> You might find something useful at: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SensorInstallHowto
[08:35] <Jlalk> !sensors
[08:35] <ericjones_> thats in wobbly windows
[08:36] <toplok> ericjones_, ok, that did it, thanks! :)
[08:36] <ericjones_> you're welcome
[08:36] <MrBarrett> where do i type id?
[08:36] <ikonia> MrBarrett: in a terminal,
[08:37] <MrBarrett> terminal?
[08:37] <maek0> yeah Terminal Applications > Accessories > Terminal
[08:37] <ikonia> MrBarrett: one moment, let me think about the best way to take you through this
[08:37] <alecwh> I'm trying to get my PHP scripts to be able to send mail from my Ubuntu 7.10 machine. I have sendmail installed (via apt-get), and now when I go to a PHP script that sends mail, it takes FOREVER to load, and no mail is sent. Can someone help?
[08:38] <troofy> is it a good idea to use a server for desktop use also. (linux)?
[08:38] <ikonia> alecwh look at the apache log and the mail log to find out what's going on, put some debug in the php script
[08:38] <ikonia> troofy: not really
[08:38] <troofy> ikonia why not
[08:38] <alecwh> ikonia: where are the logs at? I'm fairly new to Ubuntu.
[08:38] <ikonia> troofy: it's a fine idea to use the desktop install
[08:38] <ikonia> troofy: because the desktop install is better suited to desktop use
[08:38] <ikonia> alecwh: /var/log
[08:39] <alecwh> ikonia: which logs specifically?
[08:39] <troofy> ikonia you mean i can use desktop install as a server too and as a desktop use too. at same time?
[08:39] <ikonia> alecwh: mail and apache (http) I think it's called
[08:39] <_maw> troofy: also desktop use could cause unecessary load on the server and affect performance
[08:39] <ikonia> troofy: a desktop install will work fine as a server os
[08:39] <Erickj92> i am having issues installing FF 3 beta 4
[08:39] <ikonia> Erickj92: it's not supported by ubuntu
[08:39] <_maw> desktop / server installs of ubuntu can make use of the same packages
[08:39] <ikonia> Erickj92: speak to the firefox developers
[08:40] <ikonia> _maw: they sure can
[08:40] <_maw> ya, I said that as a statement :P
[08:40] <troofy> _maw ikonia but a desktop install can be used as server and as desktop use at same time?
[08:40] <Erickj92> ikonia, what do you mean its not suported?
[08:40] <_maw> troofy: I understand what you're asking and the answer is "yes"
[08:40] <Survivorman> it is not officially recognized and provided support to
[08:40] <_maw> but why would you want to do that?
[08:41] <ikonia> Erickj92 it's not in the ubuntu repo's - therefore the version you've got is a pre-compiled binary from an extneral source, therefore nothing to do with the ubuntu community to support it
[08:41] <CVD-PR> Why sometines when login in there a error "Error Gnome setting DEamon etc.." ?
[08:41] <alecwh> ikonia: http://pastebin.com/m11eb6130
[08:41] <alecwh> that's my mail lo
[08:41] <alecwh> g
[08:41] <_maw> troofy: whoever is using that server as their "desktop" could impact performance and maybe introduce security issues
[08:42] <applecucumber> Firefox question on Ubuntu 6.06: 6.06 normally comes with Firefox 1.5. I downloaded and installed Firefox 2.0.12 on my ~/Desktop , and copied and symbolically linked ~/Desktop/firefox/firefox to /usr/bin/firefox. When I type "firefox" in terminal, it says "cannot find mozilla runtime directory. exiting" . any ideas about what to fix? thanks!
[08:42] <ikonia> alecwh: are you using a cable/DSL connection
[08:42] <alecwh> ikonia: yes
[08:42] <troofy> _maw for example?
[08:42] <_maw> a virus?
[08:42] <_maw> open email?
[08:42] <_maw> virus.. = owned
[08:42] <_maw> by by server
[08:42] <_maw> *bye
[08:42] <FloodBot3> _maw: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:42] <poppy> applecucumber, it may be expecting the exec dir to be the ffox dir
[08:43] <ikonia> alecwh that may be your problem, your trying to use a dynamic/cable address range to talk directly to googles smtp relay
[08:43] <alhuda_> eno
[08:43] <CVD-PR> ??
[08:43] <alecwh> is it easily fixed?
[08:43] <ikonia> alecwh: the line DSN: Service unavailable is a bad sign
[08:43] <applecucumber> ok so should i try to move the ~/Desktop/firefox file somewhere? hmmm
[08:43] <BlueEyes_Jhb> Hi all, can anyone help me install flash unsing the tar.gz file pls ?
[08:43] <ikonia> alecwh: sendmail also can't qualify your dns hostname which won't help matters
[08:43] <alecwh> ok ikonia, it's not important enough to fix then. Thanks anyway! =D
[08:44] <ikonia> BlueEyes_Jhb: you don't need to, get the package flashplugin-nonfree
[08:44] <BlueEyes_Jhb> ikonia the install script keeps failing with error 404 so I downloaded the file myself
[08:44] <ai3gtmc> hi
[08:45] <arooni> help!  my computer can't play back divx type movies... it used to be able to, but now it doesnt...... ideas?  (gutsy)  (i can hear audio, but i see green lines and no real video)
[08:45] <misc--> hello, how can I find out if a service is set to boot up or not? Do I just have to check the rc directory manually to see if it's linked to the init.d service?
[08:45] <ai3gtmc> i have a new MS sandisk 4gb for my psp but my pc won't mount it :( im using ubuntu 7.10
[08:45] <ikonia> BlueEyes_Jhb: I advise against that so your ubuntu package managment stays in sync.
[08:45] <poppy> troofy, think about how many of the security updates are at server components. _maw: consider how few ports will get opened on public interfaces, and how low profile of a target a home user is
[08:45] <_maw> arooni: a codec is broken, I guess divx
[08:45] <arooni> _maw, how do i fix
[08:45] <ai3gtmc> anyone?.. :((
[08:45] <misc--> I mean find out if a service is set to start at boot
[08:46] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: what file system is on it ?
[08:46] <ai3gtmc> fat32
[08:46] <BlueEyes_Jhb> ikonia suggestions then because my synaptic works fine on everything else, I even downloaded the file from the same machine the script gives the script gives 404 error
[08:46] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: what does the syslog say
[08:46] <troofy> poppy security updates of server a more than desktop?
[08:46] <poppy> misc--, there is an easier way, 1sec
[08:46] <poppy> troofy, no, far less
[08:46] <ai3gtmc> hmm whats syslog? ikonia ?
[08:46] <misc--> poppy: no probs
[08:46] <ikonia> BlueEyes_Jhb: if your getting a 404 it means the link on the adobe site is unreachable
[08:46] <_maw> poppy: sure, I just would never run server programs on my desktop.
[08:46] <troofy> poppy so i should use desktop install ?
[08:46] <troofy> poppy so what should i do. i have on pc.
[08:46] <MrBarrett> i got it i change it in right click properties
[08:47] <ikonia> troofy: a desktop install
[08:47] <BlueEyes_Jhb> ikonia I copied the link from the script while it was running and downloaded the file so the link is ok
[08:47] <poppy> misc--, aptitude install sysv-rc-conf
[08:47] <_maw> arooni: have you installed any new media type packages lately?
[08:47] <ikonia> troofy: it's geared towards desktop hardware, and packages such as restricted drivers are not available on the server install
[08:47] <arooni> _maw,not to my knowledge
[08:47] <ikonia> BlueEyes_Jhb: then re-try the synaptic package
[08:47] <misc--> poppy: ok...
[08:47] <troofy> ikonia poppy what problems can i get.
[08:47] <ikonia> troofy: problems with what ?
[08:47] <troofy> ikonia oh ic
[08:48] <troofy> ikonia mixing server use + desktop
[08:48] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, what's syslog?
[08:48] <poppy> troofy, you *can* use a desktop install. It's *possible* there will be a security vuln that will get taken advantage of
[08:48] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: /var/log/messages
[08:48] <_maw> arooni: I have had issues like that before, I was lazy to troubleshoot so I installed VLC player and that fixed it. I then removed my other player
[08:48] <ikonia> troofy: use a desktop install, what "server" packages are you thinking of using ?
[08:48] <jay> hey...I still cant seem to get this flash media player going. anyone have the link to download it from the repository
[08:48] <troofy> poppy securit vuln like open ports?
[08:48] <ikonia> jay: what media player
[08:49] <troofy> ikonia dont know. havnt tried yet
[08:49] <poppy> troofy, however, server apps are just as vulnerable, however they are much more likely to actually be found and fixed ;)
[08:49] <ikonia> troofy: use the desktop version.
[08:49] <jay> flash media player tar.gz
[08:49] <ai3gtmc> Mar 31 16:40:39 dave-linuxbox kernel: [ 1829.712425] end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 0 ikonia this is the last line
[08:49] <hischild_> troofy: make sure to plug your firewall close if you have a desktop.
[08:49] <poppy> troofy, no, as in, someone runs a program and magically has root on your box
[08:49] <ikonia> jay: is it available in the ubuntu repo ? - what's it's real name
[08:50] <troofy> ikonia poppy ok... i hope my desktop use will not be slow because of  the apache or irc daemon running at background. i have p4 1.8g 1g ram
[08:50] <poppy> troofy, but it's really unlikely unless someone's targetting you
[08:50] <troofy> k
[08:50] <ikonia> troofy: it will be no quicker or slower than if you are running the server install
[08:50] <jay> that I really don't know...someone sent me a link for it earlier...it seemed to be connected
[08:50] <troofy> ok
[08:50] <ikonia> troofy: however trying to run an irc daemon on a DSL/Cable line is a bad idea
[08:50] <troofy> ikonia poppy but il be more comfortable with desktop instal
[08:50] <ikonia> jay: then we can't help
[08:51] <poppy> troofy, server apps are pretty good at being quiet unless there is traffic... are you planning on running a public website or anything like that?
[08:51] <troofy> ikonia poppy i can install all server apps i need in a desktop install too ?
[08:51] <hischild_> troofy: you won't notice a difference. I usually run a gameserver or 2 on my desktop, which use a webserver for additional downloads... still don't experience any downside on it
[08:51] <ikonia> troofy: which ones do you need ?
[08:51] <poppy> troofy, you'll most likely be fine with a desktop install. I'm a server software developer and i do it :P
[08:51] <troofy> poppy my websit only . some friends webs too. not much though. one ircd.
[08:52] <poppy> troofy, of course, it's all linux :)
[08:52] <poppy> oh
[08:52] <lothar> hi ubuntu noob here.  I just installed a 500gig HD and now I cant see either the new one or one of the old ones
[08:52] <ikonia> troofy: check the terms and conditions of your isp
[08:52] <troofy> hischild_ ic
[08:52] <ikonia> troofy: running irc on a home connection is not a good idea
[08:52] <xp-killer> i had an unclean shut down with my external hdd ntfs how do i regulate it?
[08:52] <poppy> ikonia, i was about to say that :)
[08:52] <jay> well I downloaded flash media player to my desktop but what is the next step...sorry just a newbie
[08:52] <hischild_> xp-killer: sudo mount /dev/yourhd -o force
[08:52] <ikonia> xp-killer: boot into windows
[08:52] <blankthewhattheh> what ikonia? Whats wrong with running any server from home really?
[08:52] <troofy> hischild_ popey ikonia, but when ill download a file. torrent or direct download. the users of ircd or website will be effected... no?
[08:52] <hischild_> no
[08:53] <ikonia> troofy: yes they will be effected, they would also be effected if yoru using a server install
[08:53] <troofy> hischild_ popey ikonia, ok
[08:53] <poppy> troofy, how many users are you expecting?
[08:53] <ikonia> troofy: thats a limit of your connection - not your OS
[08:53] <MrBarrett> will my wireless usb modem work on kubuntu 7.1 cd version installed??
[08:53] <troofy> poppy 1000
[08:53] <poppy> heh
[08:53] <xp-killer> ikonia: i dont want to go all the way in windows it haracing
[08:53] <lothar> anyone?  e.  I just installed a 500gig HD and now I cant see either the new one or one of the old ones
[08:53] <ikonia> xp-killer: to defrag/checkdisk ntfs - you have to
[08:53] <LDS_Trooper> Greets.. how can I unpackage a .package in Terminal?
[08:54] <poppy> troofy, that changes things.
[08:54] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: uh, what is it?
[08:54] <troofy> hischild_ popey ikonia, i think a firewall will help if i limit connection speeds to different apps..? any suggestions?
[08:54] <ikonia> troofy: your expecting 1000 users !
[08:54] <|ismael|> i cant use ekiga :(
[08:54] <troofy> ikonia ya
[08:54] <ikonia> troofy: thats insane
[08:54] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, its a game
[08:54] <MrBarrett> i got the usb drive going
[08:54] <hischild_> troofy: use iptables
[08:54] <ikonia> troofy: on a home connection ?
[08:54] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: what game?
[08:54] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, armagetron
[08:54] <troofy> ikonia i already have 625
[08:54] <poppy> LOL
[08:54] <ampmaniac> hi! what will be the effect if i remove the search domain in my resolv.conf? actually, my server automatically created a search domain in my resolv.conf
[08:54] <ikonia> troofy: define "user"
[08:54] <LDS_Trooper> setting up a dedicated server
[08:54] <troofy> ikonia like this chanel has 1120 users
[08:54] <ikonia> ampmaniac: the domain won't be appended
[08:55] <ikonia> troofy: oooh irc
[08:55] <troofy> ikonia ya
[08:55] <poppy> troofy, which means you're gonna be a target
[08:55] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: You don't.  You 'sudo apt-get install armagetron'
[08:55] <ikonia> troofy: never mind, but you're still going to be limited by your connection
[08:55] <yo2k> hi all...
[08:55] <troofy> hischild_ iptables can restrict quata or dl ul limits to specific apps?
[08:55] <lothar> How can I tell if my graphics card is working 100%?
[08:55] <MrBarrett> ikonia will my usb wireless modem work on kubuntu 7.1?
[08:55] <yo2k> how i configure a pcmcia wifi ( i use smc)
[08:55] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, this is on a remote server not my home machine
[08:55] <troofy> poppy target for what?
[08:55] <ikonia> MrBarrett: noidea
[08:55] <poppy> troofy, run server... and do you know much about sysadminning?
[08:55] <yo2k> i use ubuntu 7.04
[08:55] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: So?
[08:56] <poppy> troofy, getting pwned
[08:56] <troofy> poppy pwned?
[08:56] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, will that give me the dedicated server edition?
[08:56] <ikonia> troofy: attacks/exploited on your machine
[08:56] <blankthewhattheh> poppy, seriously, as if.
[08:56] <troofy> poppy no. iam not a good admin
[08:56] <ethan961> !wifi | yo2k MrBarret
[08:56] <ken> hello!
[08:56] <ubotu> yo2k MrBarret: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:56] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, we do have shell access through PuTTY
[08:56] <poppy> troofy, when you invite 1000 people into your house, odds are at least one will be an asshole.
[08:56] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: armagetrond-dedicated then
[08:56] <alesan> hi, is there a command line tool to resize jpegs, which is NOT imagemagick or graphicsmagick?
[08:56] <yo2k> ok thank's, go to there
[08:56] <troofy> ikonia poppy for attacks. server install is good. or i can tackle it with destop too?
[08:57] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: either way, you should be installing from the repos, not random files you find online that aren't even for your distro.
[08:57] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[08:57] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[08:57] <ikonia> troofy: you'll find pretty much zero difference in a server/desktop install
[08:57] <poppy> troofy, no install will save you
[08:57] <poppy> :D
[08:57] <troofy> poppy :) k
[08:57] <blankthewhattheh> popey, stop being a doomsday book
[08:57] <troofy> ikonia hm
[08:57] <blankthewhattheh> it's no where near that bad
[08:57] <troofy> poppy ikonia thx.. iam geting ddos i gues. gtg.
[08:57] <poppy> ttyl!
[08:58] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, one sec
[08:58] <julian> whdd
[08:58] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, what should i do?
[08:58] <poppy> blankthewhattheh, what were you saying now? ;)
[08:58] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: is there any errors/warnings in the syslog about your drive
[08:58] <ai3gtmc> nope
[08:58] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: tail -f /var/log/messages then take out and re-plug in your drive
[08:58] <hischild_> yay netsplit
[08:59] <ethan961> ride the netsplit
[08:59] <_maw> troofy: are you on a new linux install right now?
[08:59] <_maw> you might want to get iptables up
[08:59] <BlueEyes_Jhb> Argh...can anyone help me get macromedia flash installed ?
[08:59] <popey> !flash | BlueEyes_Jhb
[08:59] <ubotu> BlueEyes_Jhb: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[08:59] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, what do u mean byt that?.. srry im a linux noob..
[09:00] <poppy> oh snap, there's a popey in here
[09:00] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, the .package is from the arma site and its what they offer for linux.. one sec while we try the spt-get option
[09:00] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: open a terminal, use the command "tail -f /var/log/messages" then re-insert your usb disk and see what happens in the other window
[09:00] <popey> poppy: been here a long while
[09:00] <poppy> popey, right, i haven't. i was wondering where the nick completion came from
[09:01] <poppy> you weren't here last time i was around :P
[09:01] <_maw> troofy<EMAIL_ADDRESS>(this is why you want IPTables)
[09:01] <poppy> LOL
[09:01] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, here's the output Mar 31 17:01:10 dave-linuxbox kernel: [ 3058.865503] sd 7:0:0:0: [sdc] Attached SCSI removable disk
[09:01] <ai3gtmc> Mar 31 17:01:10 dave-linuxbox kernel: [ 3058.865560] sd 7:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0
[09:01] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, the sudo apt-get install armagetron-dedicated says "couldn't find package armagetron-dedicated"
[09:01] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: that's because you mistyped it.  There's a d in there.
[09:01] <ikonia> ai3gtmc ok, so it's detected it ok
[09:02] <tonyyarusso> LDS_Trooper: apt-cache search armegatron
[09:02] <xp_prg> anyone here use rpm on ubuntu?
[09:02] <ai3gtmc> ikonia,  yeah but i can't mount it :(
[09:02] <poppy> xp_prg, you mean with alien?
[09:02] <BlueEyes_Jhb> hey popey the page u sent doesnt support 7.10...
[09:02] <xp_prg> no ubuntu has rpm
[09:02] <xp_prg> do apt-get install rpm if you want to see :>
[09:02] <mark[oz]> lol http://www.bbspot.com/News/2000/9/linux_laid.html for all the ubuntu dev's working hard out there!
[09:02] <ikonia> xp_prg: but using redhat build rpm's on ubuntu is silly
[09:03] <poppy> xp_prg, does that keep track of conflicts and overwrites tho?
[09:03] <tonyyarusso> xp_prg: it exists, but is remarkably foolish.
[09:03] <xp_prg> not if your trying to make a centos domU
[09:03] <xp_prg> in xen
[09:03] <ikonia> xp_prg: then you don't install it in ubuntu - you install it in the target vm
[09:03] <WilcoJR> hello
[09:03] <xp_prg> well I have to use the rpm utility to do that!
[09:04] <ikonia> xp_prg: no you don't
[09:04] <ikonia> xp_prg: when you install centos in the VM it comes with rpm installed
[09:04] <WilcoJR> guys - is it possible that compiz-fusion is that unstable that once i turn it off my machine really works ok ?
[09:04] <poppy> xp_prg, i think you want to use the iso of CentOS to get a vm up
[09:04] <WilcoJR> if i use google earth  - i get random hangups
[09:04] <hischild_> WilcoJR: yes, though there's probably some other problem then.
[09:04] <WilcoJR> like i slows down till it dies
[09:04] <poppy> WilcoJR, in 7.10 is buggy for me
[09:04] <WilcoJR> ok
[09:04] <WilcoJR> so im not nuts :)
[09:05] <ikonia> WilcoJR: it very much depends on your graphics cards and drivers
[09:05]  * poppy isn't gonna make that judgment call ;)
[09:05] <WilcoJR> well i updaed my latest drivers (nvidia) to 169.12 using envy and the latest compiz-fusion from the repos
[09:05] <Carbonflux> does anyone know how to get ntp to sync time with the server from the command line ?
[09:05] <swilky> Does and one know the cli command for getting free space on a hdd?
[09:05] <hischild_> !envy
[09:05] <BlueEyes_Jhb> any constructive help for installing macromedia flash in 7.10 ?
[09:05] <ubotu> envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[09:05] <ikonia> WilcoJR: that could be one of the problems
[09:05] <WilcoJR> everything usulay works fine - just using google-earth kills the machine :)
[09:05] <hischild_> problem found
[09:05] <poppy> swilky, df
[09:05] <LDS_Trooper> !works-for-me
[09:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about works-for-me - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:05] <swilky> ty poppy
[09:05] <LDS_Trooper> oops
[09:05] <WilcoJR> ikonia,  how so ? 169.12 is the latest so far it works wonderfully for me - much better h the built in 100 drivers that came with ubuntu
[09:05] <hischild> !worksforme
[09:06] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/
[09:06] <WilcoJR> im on a lapotp with quadro 135
[09:06] <ikonia> WilcoJR: well that proves how lack of understanding you have
[09:06] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, what should i do? :(
[09:06] <arooni> help!  my computer can't play back divx type movies... it used to be able to, but now it doesnt...... ideas?  (gutsy)  (i can hear audio, but i see green lines and no real video)
[09:06] <LDS_Trooper> lol yeah that's it
[09:06] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: mount it manually
[09:06] <ai3gtmc> how?
[09:06] <WilcoJR> ikonia,  - can you please explain ?
[09:06] <hischild> arooni: disable compiz and try again :-)
[09:06] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, just running the commands now.. one sec..
[09:06] <arooni> hischild, compiz is disabled ! ;p
[09:06] <LDS_Trooper> tonyyarusso, thanks by the way
[09:06] <hischild> arooni: hmm ... tried a different video player?
[09:07] <ikonia> WilcoJR: the versions of the nvidia driver will have different stability / compatability depending ont he version of the kernel you run and the applications it runs with, ubuntu test the versions they support, you've used later drivers that may have issues witht hat version of the kernel/compiz/ubuntu in general
[09:07] <swilky> sudo apt-get install fdclone
[09:07] <WilcoJR> i see
[09:07] <swilky> E: Couldn't find package fdclone
[09:07] <arooni> hischild, yup you'er right;  why doesnt totem player play correctly?
[09:07] <WilcoJR> i didnt understand that it of an issue with the kernel
[09:07] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: in the syslog what device file does it assign
[09:07] <poppy> WilcoJR, if you want latest and greatest, install 8.04 beta and report bugs :D
[09:07] <ikonia> WilcoJR: it's not an issue with the kernel, re-read what I typed
[09:08] <ai3gtmc> ikonia,  /dev/sdc
[09:08] <hischild> arooni: can be a couple dozen reasons. Try see if any of the settings got screwed up or something, or force a reinstall of it
[09:08] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: sudo mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[09:08] <ai3gtmc> ok
[09:08] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, is says mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[09:08] <arooni> hischild, i dont have any settings i setup; so i'm comfy blowing them away.................. how do i force reinstall?
[09:08] <WilcoJR> ikonia,  let me rephrase kernel/driver compatibilty
[09:08] <WilcoJR> hmm
[09:08] <hischild> ikonia: ! ... why mount a drive at /mnt and not a decent mountpoint?
[09:09] <WilcoJR> how stable is 8.04 beta?
[09:09] <ikonia> hischild: to just test his drive is mountable
[09:09] <hischild> WilcoJR: it's because the latest driver isn't perse the best.
[09:09] <hischild> ikonia: i c
[09:09] <ikonia> WilcoJR: it's a beta
[09:09] <ai3gtmc> uh oh
[09:09] <WilcoJR> guys but why is this that the latest drivers are not suppose to be the best?
[09:09] <ikonia> ai3gtmc:  ?
[09:09] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, is says mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[09:09] <ikonia> WilcoJR: re-read what I typed
[09:09] <WilcoJR> acoording to nvidia the 169.12 squshed tons of bugs
[09:09] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: what file system is on it
[09:09] <hischild> arooni: sudo apt-get install --reinstall totem totem-common
[09:09] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: what file system is on it
[09:09] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, fat32
[09:09] <swilky> omg
[09:09] <WilcoJR> ikonia,  i read and understand
[09:09] <ikonia> WilcoJR: clearly you don't
[09:09] <poppy> WilcoJR, right, but you could be causing more bugs by not working against the latest kernel version
[09:09] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, fat32
[09:09] <hischild> WilcoJR: please read what we tell you. If you don't read, we can't help you.
[09:09] <ken> ＃ubuntu
[09:10] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[09:10] <ken> admin
[09:10] <WilcoJR> so what are you saying is that if i use ubuntu im bound to use only the drivers supplied and tested by ubuntu?
[09:10] <ikonia> ken: what do you want
[09:10] <arooni> E: Couldn't find package totem-common
[09:10] <hischild> WilcoJR: if you want support, then use the ones that come from ubuntu
[09:10] <ikonia> WilcoJR: only drivers supported by ubuntu (restricted driver manager)
[09:10] <poppy> WilcoJR, if you want sane help, yes :)
[09:10] <ai3gtmc> woohooo! file manager can read it now! thanks ikonia !
[09:10] <WilcoJR> hehehe
[09:10] <WilcoJR> ok
[09:10] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: no problem
[09:11] <poppy> ikonia, hischild i'm having a lol on that one.
[09:11] <Survivorman> there is no package totem-common
[09:11] <hischild> poppy: which one?
[09:11] <ikonia> Survivorman: apt-cache search totem
[09:11] <hischild> arooni: sudo apt-get install --reinstall totem
[09:11] <poppy> hischild, the 3 of us saying the same thingat the same second :)
[09:11] <WilcoJR> ok
[09:11] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, hmm i can browse but not write on it.. :(
[09:11] <hischild> poppy: oh that =)
[09:11] <Survivorman> yes, and there is not totem-common
[09:11] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: it's mounted read only I'm guessing
[09:11] <Survivorman> *no
[09:12] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: sudo mount -o rw -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[09:12] <hischild> Survivorman: i   totem-common                    - Data files for the Totem media player
[09:12] <ai3gtmc> ok
[09:12] <WilcoJR> im looking for two solutions: 1 - a tool that will let me disconnect and tell gnome not to reconnect to wireless networks again (autoconnect)
[09:12] <WilcoJR> 2 - something that will let me manage tons of SSH Sessions (SecureCRT like if you know it)
[09:12] <hischild> WilcoJR: rightclick on the network manager and disable netwokring.
[09:12] <Survivorman> hmm... i just did and got nothing but a list of totem and plugins
[09:12] <ken_> anybody come from china
[09:12] <WilcoJR> hischild,  but this kills my wired link :(
[09:12] <ikonia> WilcoJR: manage ssh sessions ?
[09:12] <ikonia> WilcoJR: disable the wirless card only
[09:13] <hischild> WilcoJR: then just disable the wireless one
[09:13] <WilcoJR> yeah but this is a problem
[09:13] <snake_> i need help to make wlassistant to connect at startup as sudo without writing the password every time i start the pc. can anyone help ?
[09:13] <ken_> m
[09:13] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, how do i unmount it? srry..
[09:13] <WilcoJR> when i boot the machine - the previous wireless link takes precedence over my wired link
[09:13] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: sudo umount /mnt
[09:13] <ai3gtmc> ok
[09:13] <ikonia> WilcoJR: disble the card then
[09:13] <alexander_> In Xchat ui i'f lost the right panel with the people online, anyone knows how to bring it back again?
[09:13] <hischild> Survivorman: http://pastebin.com/f71bf625c
[09:13] <ken_> anybody come from china
[09:14] <mark[oz]> is are the ubuntu repo's so far behind?
[09:14] <WilcoJR> isnt there like a panel that lets you mange the wireless connection ?
[09:14] <ikonia> ken_: no - people will respond if they did. Do you have a support question
[09:14] <hischild> alexander_: hit ctrl f7
[09:14] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, i get this sudo: unmount: command not found
[09:14] <mark[oz]> netbeans current = 6, repos = 5.5
[09:14] <hischild> ai3gtmc: use umount, don't use n
[09:14] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: umount - not unmount
[09:14] <on3> hey?
[09:14] <ai3gtmc> oh k
[09:14] <Survivorman> hischild, are you using hardy?
[09:14] <on3> what are the random beeps that i keep hearing while Pidgin is open?
[09:14] <hischild> Survivorman: yes
[09:14] <ikonia> mark[oz]: this is a punishment for an OS release every 6 months, packages tend to not get version updates post release
[09:14] <WilcoJR> ikonia,  manage ssh sessiosn = SecureCRT for windows is a terminal/ssh proggy that lets you store and create organized tree of all your server connections
[09:14] <WilcoJR> including X11 tunnels
[09:14] <WilcoJR> need something like that for my ubuntu setup
[09:14] <ikonia> WilcoJR: putty
[09:15] <Survivorman> its not in gutsy
[09:15] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, hmm still can't paste on it
[09:15] <hischild> Survivorman: alright, thanks for that then ..
[09:15] <WilcoJR> im trying to get gputty - gnome putty yet cannot find a deb release for it
[09:15] <mark[oz]> ikonia, but aren't the repo's managed idependantly?
[09:15] <ikonia> mark[oz]: no
[09:15] <Smegzor> yay!  it took me a while but I finally got DHCP working and now my pc connects to the net automatically on bootup :D
[09:15] <Survivorman> I have it installed, i was just referring to arooni's comment on not being able to install it. he only needs totem and any plugin he needs.
[09:15] <mark[oz]> can they be ikonia ?
[09:15] <hischild> !yay | Smegzor
[09:15] <ubotu> Smegzor: Glad you made it! :-)
[09:15] <mark[oz]> e.g. I want my app in the ubuntu repo, I do something tricky, and bang its there?
[09:15] <ikonia> mark[oz]: you can have 3rd party repo's managed by say "me" but they arn't "ubuntu" repo's
[09:16] <Smegzor> thanks to those that helped me in here :D  lol at that ubotu command XD
[09:16] <hischild> Survivorman: he has it installed though probably corrupted it ... thus the reinstall
[09:16] <ikonia> mark[oz]: if you want YOUR application in the ubuntu repo's you have to use the submittal process and go through testing/sumission/etc/etc
[09:16] <mark[oz]> ok
[09:17] <mark[oz]> i just wish all these apps could be updated
[09:17] <mark[oz]> thanks ikonia
[09:17] <ikonia> mark[oz]: it's the price of an OS release every 6 months,
[09:17] <Yashy> I have found a reproducable way to reboot my ubuntu machine by going to a specific website. How can I build a core file to debug upon reboot?
[09:17] <xp_prg> anyone familiar with building a kernel on ubuntu?
[09:17] <ikonia> xp_prg: surly am
[09:17] <xp_prg> I would like to build the latest xen kernel, is there a tutorial/howto anywhere on that?
[09:17] <ikonia> Yashy: corefiles are crashes
[09:17] <ikonia> xp_prg: there is a xen package in the repo's
[09:17] <shukty> can i ask something about remote vnc ? i m under a router ... if i write my ip address followed by port i see the router's confpage ... using intranet i can use it great
[09:18] <Yashy> ikonia: Where can I find them?
[09:18] <ikonia> !xen > xp_prg
[09:18] <xp_prg> ikonia, but it is not the latest
[09:18] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, hmm i tried using the cp in terminal. it works but i can't paste to the mount using the file browser
[09:18] <ikonia> Yashy: you can't "find" them an application crash creates them
[09:18] <FloodBot3> !netsplit
[09:18] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[09:18] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: please show me the output of "mount" in the pastebin please.
[09:18] <Yashy> I can reproducably crash my ubuntu machine
[09:18] <xp_prg> ikonia, is there anyway to get the very latest somehow?
[09:18] <erUSUL> !kernel | xp_prg
[09:18] <ubotu> xp_prg: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages
[09:18] <Peddy> can someone please tell me what is in their /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/modules/smb-module.conf
[09:18] <Peddy> ?
[09:18] <ikonia> xp_prg: why do you want it
[09:18] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, ok
[09:18] <ikonia> xp_prg: as in the latest
[09:18] <hischild> what's up with those netsplits all the time
[09:18] <ken_> ／AME hello
[09:19] <ikonia> ken_: hi
[09:19] <xp_prg> because jailtime.org requires the latest xen kernel to work
[09:19] <Smegzor> I still can't change my desktop wallpaper, but I'm wondering if somehow thats a permissions problem?  I did reinstall ubuntu while preserving /home.  Thats caused a few problems, but nothing compared to trying the same trick on Windows :D
[09:19] <poppy> xp_prg, you could always use the 8.04 beta! submit bugs! :D
[09:19] <ikonia> xp_prg: I'm reading the jailtime size, where does it say that ?
[09:19] <Yashy> I can reproducably crash my ubuntu machine, how can I find/create core files to debug?
[09:20] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, here http://code.bulix.org/8ev1t8-65981?raw
[09:20] <erUSUL> !bugs | Yashy
[09:20] <ubotu> Yashy: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots
[09:20] <xp_prg> ikonia it doesn't say that, but I know from trial and error that this is true
[09:20] <ikonia> xp_prg: I disagree
[09:20] <Yashy> I'm wondering how to create/find core files, not submit a bug.
[09:20] <xp_prg> ikonia unless you know how to get a centos xen domU on ubuntu feisty, I would love to know how to do it!
[09:20] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: ahhhhh it's vfat
[09:21] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: it's mounted as "root"
[09:21] <xp_prg> I was able to boot the jailtime centos but the networking doesn't work
[09:21] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, hmm so what shout i do?
[09:21] <ikonia> xp_prg: centos domu ? whats wrong with the ubuntu domu ?
[09:21] <xp_prg> ikonia I need to use rpm and create an rpm repository
[09:21] <ikonia> ai3gtmc one moment let me grab the right mount options
[09:21] <xp_prg> for python stuff
[09:21] <ai3gtmc> ok thanks ike_x
[09:21] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, *
[09:21] <ai3gtmc> lol
[09:21] <ikonia> xp_prg: ok - so you need to install centos host to use the centos domu
[09:21] <Yashy> I can reproducably crash my ubuntu machine, how can I find/create core files to debug?
[09:22] <ikonia> xp_prg that was badley worded
[09:22] <xp_prg> ikonia I thought I could install a centos domu on an ubuntu host, is that not correct?
[09:22] <ikonia> xp_prg: yes that is "correct" technially
[09:22] <snake_> anyone that can help me to get wlassistant to run at startup as sudo ? i tried to add it to rc.local but i had no success. it doesnt show up and it doesnt connect
[09:23] <poppy> this is why i left, i could do this all night :)
[09:23] <poppy> night all!

[09:26] <Peddy> erUSUL: do you have Samba installed?
[09:27] <erUSUL> Yashy: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProcedures
[09:27] <erUSUL> Peddy: i do not think so
[09:28] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: mount -o uid=$your_user_uid /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[09:28] <erUSUL> Peddy: only samba-common
[09:28] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, ok ill try that
[09:28] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, how do i get my UID?
[09:28] <hello123123> hi.
[09:29] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: in a terminal type "id"
[09:29] <Peddy> erUSUL: thanks :)
[09:29] <Yashy> Are core dumps enabled by default for system crashes/reboots? If so, where might I find the core file?
[09:29] <ai3gtmc> ok
[09:29] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: you may also be able to do uid=$username but I don't know if that will work
[09:29] <ai3gtmc> i got the UID
[09:30] <visik7> does the new version of rhythmbox comein' with Hardy has support for some kind of mp3 portable player ??
[09:30] <ampmaniac> hi! should i have to configure first my mail before configuring bind?
[09:30] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, i got this again mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[09:30] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: I meant use that in additon to the other option
[09:31] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: sudo mount -o rw uid=$uid -t vfat /dev/sdc1 /mnt
[09:31] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, oh ok
[09:31] <ikonia> must dash,
[09:31] <wuxia> what's the package that allows me to say "in this directory, build me the entire file system of ubuntun etch, for hte i386 arch" (i'm playing with qemu)
[09:31] <ampmaniac> will bind9 start even i havent configured my mail?
[09:32] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, it outputs some options
[09:33] <mmc> I get segfaults from  claws-mail (in gutsy)
[09:33] <chazco> Hi... do the visual effects in Gusty have any impact on battery life?
[09:33] <hischild> chazco: yes
[09:34] <chazco> Ah... so better to turn them off i guess
[09:34] <hischild> chazco: for the longest duration on a single battery, yes
[09:34] <hischild> chazco: if you want to go to the extreme, consider using a less resource intensive WM
[09:34] <chazco> The battery has to last for at least a day without charging and quite a lot of use and wifi, just wanted to maximise it.
[09:35] <tarelerulz> on firefox text on a web pages . When I do search of the text . I put something like lk it will find every word with lk . Or say to it will find tool and not to . How do I make it find to and tool ?
[09:35] <chazco> hischild - Been down the different wm route, too much hassle for not much gain
[09:36] <brunner> I don't have to boot from the live cd just to reinstall grub, do I?
[09:36] <hischild> chazco: for me no hassle on this end .. and it did add me another 20 min on the 2,5 hours i have
[09:37] <eax_> Hello fine gentlmen :) I wonder, could someone tell me how to make an Icon on my desktop that starts a script?
[09:37] <chazco> hischild - I tried IceWM or something like that (was a while ago), only got a few minutes extra on top of the 4 or so hours use i can get with wifi, so not really worth it
[09:37] <hischild> chazco: i see. I use fluxbox which just does what it needs to do
[09:37] <tonyyarusso> eax_: right-click > create launcher
[09:38] <chazco> Ah, will try it if the battery starts to wear out... for now this should be okay then... Thanks hischild :)
[09:38] <hischild> chazco: yw
[09:38] <chees> any one knows when ubuntu maybe will get better support for intel?
[09:38] <hello123123> hi. is it ok to use the procompiled kernel, though my processor it was not precompiled for the type of processor i own?
[09:38] <eax_> Tonyyarusso: Okay, then what? I need it to ./ something :)
[09:38] <tonyyarusso> eax_: uh, you fill in the name and command boxes
[09:39] <illabled> hello
[09:39] <hello123123> : hi. is it ok to use the procompiled kernel, though it was not precompiled for the type of processor i own? (sorry for the previous errors)

[09:39] <WilcoJR> Hi again guys,
[09:40] <zsw> zsw
[09:40] <illabled> any thoughts on xfs vs et3?  does xfs play nice with everything lie ext3 seems to?
[09:40] <WilcoJR> Guys if compiz is on , windows that have hebrew in thier title name are now without the title - i.e firefox
[09:40] <zsw> 左苏武
[09:40] <hischild> illabled: xfs is better with lot of small files
[09:40] <zsw> 指挥所；对话框发动机
[09:40] <WilcoJR> any ideas where i should look ? if i turn compiz off - it works fine. no emerald installed
[09:40] <illabled> correction - xfs vs ext3
[09:41] <brunner> http://www.presstv.ir/detail.aspx?id=49572&sectionid=351020104#
[09:41] <brunner> whoops, wrong hannel
[09:41] <illabled> are there any downsides to xfs?
[09:41] <hischild> illabled: no shrinking
[09:42] <hischild> let me see
[09:42] <talntid> sweet.
[09:42] <talntid> finally successfully started my car with a text message.
[09:42] <talntid> and it responded back started
[09:42] <brunner> talntid: youtube or it didn't happen
[09:42] <illabled> no shrinking as in no file compression whatsoever, hischild?
[09:43] <eli7777> talntid how did you set that up
[09:43] <eli7777> ?
[09:43] <talntid> heh, know how easy it would be to fake a youtube?
[09:43] <brunner> talntid: yeah, it was a joke
[09:43] <hischild> illabled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XFS <-- there you can read it. There are no real downsides on it
[09:43] <illabled> ah ha!  ty
[09:43] <talntid> well, i'v got a porsche cayenne, and it has phone abilities built in
[09:43] <talntid> and with a little firmware modding, and a chip & some wiring, it comes to life :)
[09:43] <eli7777> well thats just about cheating then
[09:43] <illabled> the all - powerful, probably accurate wikipedia!
[09:44] <hischild> illabled: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3 <-- and some for ext3
[09:44] <brunner> talntid:  I take it it's an automatic?
[09:44] <WilcoJR> guys - if i installed 8.04 beta - when the final release do i need to reinstalled or it will update to the final ?
[09:44] <talntid> yeah, brunner
[09:44] <illabled> i suppose i should hve just thought of that one lol
[09:44] <brunner> talntid: what an abomination!
[09:44] <talntid> paddle shifter, but it is an automatic :P
[09:45] <brunner> well, F1-style paddle shifters aren't so bad... they've got those trannies shifting pretty damn quick
[09:45] <talntid> hey, the porsche isn't the "fast car" :)
[09:45] <jscinoz_> is there anyway to get the version of a module?
[09:45] <talntid> i have a fast car too. hehe
[09:45] <brunner> talntid: yeah, fair enough
[09:45] <illabled> WilcoJR - you will be able to update to it when it's out, but personally I would just do a fresh install once the distro is in stone
[09:45] <brunner> but they're damn fun to drive
[09:45] <talntid> a few, actually. funny thing is the least expensive one is by far the fastest
[09:45]  * brunner waits for an "OMG OTR OTR OTR OTR OTR!!!11"
[09:46] <talntid> ;)
[09:46] <brunner> s/OTR/OT
[09:46] <talntid> and yes, the paddle shift is very fast on the cayenne
[09:46] <brunner> talntid: well, it depends on how you define "fast", I suppose
[09:46] <WilcoJR> ok
[09:46] <WilcoJR> illabled, thanks
[09:46] <talntid> meh, 10.3 in the 1/4 mile :)
[09:46] <illabled> np
[09:47] <brunner> who buys a Porsche and even bothers with a 1/4 mile?
[09:47] <brunner> it's autocrossing that you should be bragging about, man
[09:47] <talntid> uhm.
[09:47] <talntid> you do know a cayenne is a SUV< right?
[09:47] <brunner> yep
[09:47] <Yashy> Are core dumps enabled by default for system crashes/reboots? If so, where might I find the core file? sudo locate core | grep core$ # isn't showing one
[09:47] <talntid> who auto-x's a SUV?
[09:47] <brunner> talntid: you know the cayenne is a porsche, right?
[09:47] <talntid> i have a m3 for the auto-x ;P
[09:47] <brunner> ah
[09:47] <brunner> hmm
[09:48] <talntid> and the "fast street car"
[09:48] <brunner> I'd trade both for a 911 Turbo
[09:48] <talntid> meh
[09:48] <brunner> I love the M3
[09:48] <talntid> i'm too tall
[09:48] <brunner> the M5 will be my next car
[09:48] <talntid> 911 didn't fit well
[09:48] <brunner> I've always wanted one
[09:48] <romas> pnp_atz2320
[09:48] <talntid> my next car will be a m6 :)
[09:49] <brunner> talntid: this really is OT, join #sd on irc.oftc.org to continue the conversation
[09:49] <dr4w3rz> ?

[09:50] <DistroJockey> Yashy: do you think it may be an X related issue. If so, this may help:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingXorg
[09:51] <Yashy> DistroJockey: nope, I think it's an amd64 issue.
[09:51] <DistroJockey> Yashy: ahh
[09:51] <Yashy> well, flash on amd64

[09:54] <Yashy> Even if I could keep a firefox core before the crash/reboot I'd be in good shape
[09:54] <DistroJockey> Yashy: I assume you looked through /var/log ?
[09:55] <Yashy> yup
[09:56] <Yashy> perhaps I'll try firefox with strace on a remote machine via ssh -X

[10:13] <ai3gtmc> hmm for some odd reason it works now...
[10:13] <ai3gtmc> ikonia, but thanks for your great help. i learned alot :)
[10:14] <troofy> poppy ikonia back
[10:14] <ikonia> ai3gtmc: no problem
[10:15] <ikonia> troofy: what ?
[10:16] <troofy> poppy ikonia i got a question. i have a dsl connection. but my friends share it with me. i think giving them line from modem is not good idea, as i cant limit their speed. i run ircd + host my web. should i use a third computer as router and server or use my one pc as router to limit there bandwidth + as server?
[10:18] <jetscreamer> if all you have is a modem and not a modem router, probably
[10:18] <ct529> hi everybody!
[10:18] <ct529> I have been trying to install and test kde4 from the repository
[10:18] <ct529> but cannot start it from the list of available sessions
[10:18] <ct529> what should I do?
[10:19] <troofy> jetscreamer i have a modem with four ports. not a router i think
[10:19] <ct529> is there some special configuration I did not get?
[10:19] <jetscreamer> troofy: router modem i believe
[10:19] <jetscreamer> troofy: it may or may not have QoS built in
[10:19] <jetscreamer> most of mine do
[10:19] <jetscreamer> troofy: what kind is it
[10:20] <jetscreamer> troofy: or just go into it's webpage and look
[10:21] <troofy> jetscreamer ok. its not qos . so  i cant limit bandwidth?
[10:22] <jetscreamer> if it's a 2wire it has a lame qos
[10:22] <ikonia> troofy: the kernel can do quos
[10:22] <jetscreamer> but it's there
[10:22] <ikonia> qos even
[10:22] <ikonia> use it through iptables
[10:23] <jetscreamer> so what kind of modemRouter is it
[10:23] <troofy> ikonia iptables will do it. i think you mean i should use lan ips for my frriends. use a second switch like syslink or dlink to give them internet connection and  limit their bandwidth by iptables?

[10:27] <metbsd> does ubuntu have kde4?

[10:27] <maek0> metbsd, No it has GNOME
[10:27] <Ace_NoOne> I need some help getting started with grep - I know RegEx, but I'm not familiar with grep's implementation. What I need is to extract certain URLs from a single HTML file (like /http(.*)php/g)
[10:27] <dgjones> !kde4 | metbsd
[10:27] <ubotu> metbsd: KDE 4.0.2 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0.2 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.2.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.2.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4
[10:27] <maek0> metbsd, you are thinking of kbunntu
[10:28] <crackerjackz_> nm i figured it out
[10:28] <metbsd> Ace_NoOne: read doc about rewrite module
[10:28] <Ace_NoOne> metbsd: rewrite module? as in Apache?
[10:28] <metbsd> Ace_NoOne: yes
[10:28] <Ace_NoOne> metbsd: not sure I follow
[10:29] <metbsd> ok Ace_NoOne  sorry i don't know whaty ou trying to accomplish here
[10:29] <Ace_NoOne> metbsd: I have a local HTML file, from which I want to extract strings (certain URLs)
[10:30] <Ace_NoOne> for which I suppose grep is the right tool
[10:30] <ikonia> Ace_NoOne: grep http: $file
[10:30] <ikonia> grep href
[10:30] <ikonia> or some other useful string
[10:31] <Ace_NoOne> ikonia: yeah, but the problem is I can't seem to wrap my head around grep's RE implementation - I'd write it like /http(.*?)php/g
[10:31] <metbsd> learn some RE then
[10:31] <metbsd> it's very easy in perl
[10:31] <ikonia> Ace_NoOne: grep href $file
[10:31] <ikonia> Ace_NoOne: it should be that easy
[10:32] <Ace_NoOne> ikonia: I need to extract a certain pattern, not all URLs
[10:32] <ikonia> Ace_NoOne: oooh
[10:32] <Ace_NoOne> sorry...
[10:32] <ikonia> Ace_NoOne: I guess join the scripting channel then
[10:33] <Ace_NoOne> ikonia: scripting channel?
[10:33] <ikonia> Ace_NoOne: #scripting #bash
[10:33] <metbsd> Ace_NoOne: do you know perl?
[10:34] <Ace_NoOne> metbsd: no
[10:34] <Ace_NoOne> ikonia: ahh, #bash makes sense - #scripting is empty and for mIRC :)
[10:35] <ikonia> Ace_NoOne: it may be ##scripting
[10:36] <Ace_NoOne> ikonia: negatory - but that's fine, #bash will do - thanks!

[10:53] <simplexio> 6hey. on laptop cat /proc/cpuinfo tell speed is 600Mhx, max should be 1.6Ghz, /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq tell its 600Mhz, where and how i get it to 1.6Ghz
[10:53] <hischild> simplexio: try this ==> sudo powernowd
[10:53] <hischild> simplexio: its probably speedstepping
[10:55] <frenchy_> ourasi: Can you get mail?
[10:55] <Smegzor> Ages ago I was able to hover the mouse over a music file and it would play automatically while the mouse was over it.  That hasn't worked for ages.  How do I get that feature working again?

[11:05] <hischild> hello
[11:06] <kraft__> i'm tryin to build mplayer and i seem to have missed a package
[11:06] <Svenstaro> hischild, we left no questions open it seems :P
[11:06] <defho> ok.. moving on to problem #2... my audio loops endlessly after installation of ubuntu... is this common?
[11:06] <hischild> Svenstaro: hehe we did a good job so far then :-)
[11:06] <kraft__> libvo/libvo.a(x11_common.o): In function `vo_x11_create_colormap':
[11:06] <kraft__> x11_common.c:(.text+0x2a4): undefined reference to `XCreateColormap'
[11:06] <kraft__> any idea how i might solve?
[11:06] <hischild> kraft__: why would you build mplayer? it's in the repo's
[11:07] <kraft__> hischild: doesn't support nz dtt
[11:07] <hischild> hmm
[11:07] <Svenstaro> !helpersnack | hischild
[11:07] <ubotu> hischild: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!
[11:07] <kraft__> interlaced paff for h264
[11:07] <hischild> kraft__: though i have no idea what that might be, i'm sure you need it. Try this one ==> sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer
[11:07] <hischild> !helpersnack | Svenstaro
[11:07] <ubotu> Svenstaro: Wow! You're such a great helper, you deserve a cookie!
[11:07] <kraft__> o_O

[11:08] <Svenstaro> OM NOM MOM MOM cookies!
[11:08]  * hischild eats
[11:08] <Smegzor> differentreality: type googleearth in console
[11:08] <hischild> defho: ofcourse that's not meant to happen.
[11:08] <kraft__> hischild: thanks, and nice tip generally
[11:09] <defho> indeed! but a google search reveals many ppl have this problem... wondering if by chance there's some magical remedy to this
[11:09] <defho> i doubt it.
[11:09] <hischild> Svenstaro: actually, i prefer rice ... i'm eating that now with chopsticks ...
[11:09]  * kraft__ watches 85Mb or deps slowly download
[11:09] <defho> its probably cause by many things
[11:09] <hischild> defho: did those ppl who had the same problem happen to show a solution?
[11:09] <differentreality> Smegzor, this doesnt work.. already tried it :/
[11:09] <defho> hischild, not that i could find
[11:10] <Smegzor> differentreality: if you know how to add menu items using system/preferences/main menu  the command to launch google earth should be something like  /home/yourname/google-earth/googleearth %f
[11:10] <Svenstaro> hischild, rice? good idea actually
[11:10] <kraft__> while i'm here... how do i find out what packages provides a specific file?
[11:10] <hischild> differentreality: try this one --> locate google | grep bin
[11:10] <defho> i'm trying to set up ubuntu on a notebook.. i've NEVER run into so many problems
[11:10] <kraft__> (without the package installed)
[11:10] <hischild> differentreality: that should give you a list of google earth's installed locations
[11:10] <hischild> kraft__: install apt-file for that and use apt-file search
[11:10] <Smegzor> failing that try locate googleearth
[11:10] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Guys..while i was trying to install some things by synaptic .it came an error telling me to do: dpkg --configure -a, but the terminal tells me some errors like this: linux-modules-2.6....-generic gerando /boot/initrd.img   /  usr/sbin/mkinitramfs:13:getopt:not found ... does any1 know whats that and how can i fix this?
[11:10] <DistroJockey> differentreality:  sudo /usr/bin/make-googleearth-package
[11:11] <Smegzor> even better, follow what hischild said
[11:11] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, are you using hardy?
[11:11] <eth01> ;)
[11:11] <kraft__> hischild: thanks again
[11:11] <hischild> Svenstaro: yes ... i like it ... and the chopsticks make you eat more slowly so you don't get stomach ache
[11:12] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro: nope
[11:12] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: the most usefull of your question was the "some things " try to explain that part please
[11:12] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR I suppose you didnt knowingly do anything before that could have broken it?
[11:12] <defho> i will turn off WEP on my wifi and see if that solves my wlan issue
[11:13] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Well..looks like gutsy is trying to generate something.. /boot/initdr.img-<IP_ADDRESS>-generic..
[11:14] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: please explain the part about "some things" in your question
[11:15] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild: actually i just opned the synaptic to start install a cd repository..only that
[11:15] <guillem101> Is there any way to get a cell processor, besides of buying a PS3?
[11:15] <Svenstaro> guillem101, only if you are a big-name industry or an excentric millionaire
[11:15] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> but it came to an dpkg --configure -a tip...i mean, i can open my synaptic..
[11:15] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: hmm can you pastebin the entire output of that command for me please?
[11:16] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild: sure..its on the other pc..but im gonna copy
[11:16] <guillem101> Svenstaro, thanks1
[11:16] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: does that other pc have internet access?
[11:16] <guillem101> Svenstaro, thanks!
[11:16] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild: nope. :S
[11:16] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: i see. That also explains the cd repo
[11:17] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> yea
[11:17] <Svenstaro> guillem101, IBM said 3 years ago that it might be released into some form of PC-comptible piece of hardware in a couple of years but I dont think thats in sony's interest
[11:17] <mzuverink> Can someone point me to a link of the steps which are needed to configure the wordpress .deb after installation from the repo's with synaptic?
[11:17] <Svenstaro> mzuverink, never install a web application from a deb
[11:17] <differentreality> DistroJockey, i get 404 error Could not download Google Earth! (You may need to use --file)
[11:17] <guillem101> Svenstaro, I can buy a PS-3, and install linux on it so I can program the cell thing. Is that OK?
[11:18] <kesshiiii> hi, when i connect to my samba server it is slow to give the auth window, after auth everything is fast, i think it has to do with the server being in another subnet
[11:18] <Svenstaro> mzuverink, wordpress just received a major update to 2.5, you should not install the deb because it will give security problems
[11:18] <Svenstaro> guillem101, yes
[11:18] <mzuverink> Svenstaro, ok, thank you
[11:18] <DistroJockey> differentreality: hmm, I just did it and it worked for me. :(
[11:18] <Svenstaro> guillem101, be aware tho that not only very few binary applications will work, and you will not get the graphics drivers to work
[11:19] <guillem101> Svenstaro, Oh, I see there is a PS3Linux channel; I'm going to ask them a couple of questions :). Thank you very much
[11:19] <guillem101> Svenstaro, I want to crunch numbers.... he he
[11:19] <Svenstaro> guillem101, thats a very good practice, PS3 make excellent cracking machines
[11:19] <differentreality> DistroJockey, you had done   sudo apt-get install googleearth-package and then this ?
[11:20] <DistroJockey> differentreality: used Synaptic to install googleearth-package then  sudo /usr/bin/make-googleearth-package
[11:20] <guillem101> Svenstaro, ahem; scientific crunching. I want to evaluate how difficult is to write scientific software for the PS3....
[11:20] <DistroJockey> differentreality: so yeah, pretty much
[11:20] <guillem101> sorry, for the CELL...
[11:20] <Svenstaro> guillem101, may I suggest the usage of CUDA instead of a ps3? much more comfortable
[11:21] <differentreality> DistroJockey, i'm doing it in 2 different laptops :/  any ideas what could be wrong ?
[11:21] <guillem101> Svenstaro, you can suggest what you want. I'm willing to get enlightened. What is CUDA?
[11:21] <DistroJockey> differentreality: you have a working Internet on it?
[11:21] <differentreality> DistroJockey, yeah
[11:22] <loa> 7.0.2-4ubuntu2 libgl1-mesa-dri where i can get it?
[11:22] <DistroJockey> differentreality: try and do it again, just to make sure
[11:22] <Dybber> How do I change the $PATH that is used when using sudo? I've some binaries in ~/bin that I can't call with sudo
[11:22] <differentreality> DistroJockey, yeah i did like 5 times on each lap :p
[11:22] <tarelerulz> any of you ever use avidemux for getting subtitles out .vob files
[11:22] <guillem101> Svenstaro, oh, I see, GPU-computing.
[11:22] <Svenstaro> guillem101, its Nvidia way to turn your graphics card into a super computer, works really well for the stuff that you have in mind. Everything that can be massively threaded will look like its being done on a super computer. The catch is that you need a series 8 nvidia card.

[11:22] <DistroJockey> differentreality: :(
[11:23] <DistroJockey> differentreality: I'll try on Gutsy, I'm on Hardy atm. BIAB
[11:23] <differentreality> DistroJockey, when it says awaiting response... do you get a response? (cause i dont ... i get 404 error)
[11:24] <Tootbatot_> can i limit total bandwidth /s  combinely for 2 ips ? by firewall. eg ip1 + ip2  should not exceed 20kb/s  ?
[11:24] <DistroJockey> differentreality: I couldn't see the top of the terminal log, heaps of warnings
[11:24] <differentreality> DistroJockey, hehe ok :)
[11:24] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: i see. what does it give you in general when you do dpkg-reconfigure -a?
[11:24] <DistroJockey> differentreality: but it said completed successfully at the end then I installed the .deb file
[11:24] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: correction:
[11:24] <differentreality> maybe someone could guide me through installing the bin file of google earth ?
[11:24] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: dpkg --configure -a
[11:24] <guillem101> Svenstaro, nice!. I've already used the GPU to "compute" radiation view factors via offscreen rendering. This seems to be much more general.
[11:25] <Svenstaro> guillem101, yup :)
[11:25] <visik7> mzuverink: I've far more problems with iwl3945
[11:25] <DistroJockey> differentreality: will test in Gutsy though
[11:25] <differentreality> DistroJockey, i c :/  in my case exactly the oposite happened :p   3 lines last saying that i got an error :P
[11:25] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild:that error...
[11:26] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: sorry, i misread it ...
[11:26] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild: ah ok..so thats it..i dont know about that, but i think its about the getopt..or try to put it on usr/bin...?
[11:27] <Tootbatot_> can i limit total bandwidth /s  combinely for 2 ips ? by firewall. eg ip1 + ip2  should not exceed 20kb/s  ?
[11:27] <Eerrr> Can someone please help me install my 3G modem? :/
[11:27] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: this is kind of endless ... can you try this one ==> locate getopt
[11:27] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: see what folder it's in
[11:28] <Smegzor> I got music preview in nautilus working again, but it only does it in icon view.  Who uses icon view these days?  How do I get it working in list view?
[11:28] <mzuverink> Can you run an ati vid card and an nvidia vid card together?
[11:29] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild:some lines aboout /usr/lib/python2.5 // usr/lib/ruby  //   /usr/include/getopt.h  ?
[11:29] <Svenstaro> mzuverink, yes, but only if you are very expierenced
[11:29] <Eerrr> someone... anyone..
[11:29] <mzuverink> Svenstaro, thanks again
[11:29] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: look for this line ==> /usr/bin/getopt
[11:30] <sidis405> just finished installing Hardy. let's see how much there is to sweat this time ;)
[11:30] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild:theres no line like this...doing locate getopt...
[11:31] <b4l74z4r> after i installed azureus, theres two entries in my home folder; ".azureus" and ".Azureus" - why is there two?
[11:31] <bozza> hi ppl
[11:31] <bozza> i have a lil problem
[11:31] <DistroJockey> differentreality: ok, I have the same issue as you in Gutsy, works fine in Hardy
[11:31] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, your udev is broken, hang on a sec
[11:31] <bozza> i just reinstalled windows and my grub has gone
[11:32] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, run this ls /var/cache/apt/archives/udev*
[11:32] <SlayerFaith> !grub
[11:32] <dgjones> !grub | bozza
[11:32] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[11:32] <differentreality> DistroJockey, i c.... i tried downloading the bin though... and it works from there :)  thanks a lot for trying it in gutsy :)
[11:32] <ubotu> bozza: please see above
[11:32] <Smegzor> nevermind, I'll just control-1 and control-2 as needed to swap views
[11:32] <DistroJockey> differentreality: cool, no problem
[11:32] <differentreality> :)
[11:32] <bozza> thanks: ubotu
[11:32] <differentreality> what is the command with which i can see all the connected pc's in a network ?
[11:32] <bozza> thanks: dgjones
[11:32] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: thank Svenstaro for this one...try this ==> ls  /var/cache/apt/archives/ | grep udev
[11:33] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro:no such file or directory
[11:33] <Svenstaro> differentreality, sudo nmap -sP <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[11:33] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, that is VERY bad
[11:33] <hischild> Svenstaro: you should know better then trying to list a file
[11:33] <hischild> *ls
[11:33] <windosor> hi i'm just to install ubuntu after 15min waithing to install / load something called ''busybox v1.13'' comes up (intitramfs)? what should i do?
[11:33] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro:oh god :S so i need to reinstall right?
[11:33] <bozza> guys i sort of tried to follow that site already to get grub back .. i kinda got lost .. is there no easy method ?
[11:33] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: calm down, we're not done yet
[11:34] <DistroJockey> Greetings Svenstaro :)
[11:34] <guillem101> differentreality, AFAIK there is no such command. You can search windows machines (and samba enabled linux machines) via smbtree. I don't know if there is any way to use avahi to discover which linux PCs are awake around.
[11:34] <raxial> differentreality:   netstat -an
[11:34] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, do sudo ls /var/cache/apt/
[11:34] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: execute this ==> ls  /var/cache/apt/archives/ | grep udev
[11:34] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro:gues thats no other way...hischild:thanks dude hoping he are not done yet
[11:34] <windosor> hi i'm just to install ubuntu after 15min waithing to install / load something called ''busybox v1.13'' comes up (intitramfs)? what should i do?
[11:34] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild..doing now...
[11:34] <Eerrr> :/
[11:35] <guillem101> differentreality, Svenstaro and raxial seem wiser than me :)
[11:36] <windosor> hi i'm just to install ubuntu after 15min waithing to install / load something called ''busybox v1.13'' comes up (intitramfs)? what should i do? Any help pls?
[11:37] <Svenstaro> windosor, are you using hardy?
[11:37] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild:weel i dont know how to write this |
[11:37] <Amour> #ubuntu.fr
[11:37] <windosor> Svenstaro hardy? whats that
[11:37] <Svenstaro> windosor, the ubuntu beta
[11:37] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: it's a pipe character
[11:37] <windosor> yes
[11:37] <hischild> !hardy
[11:37] <guillem101> differentreality, in fact, sventaro's way is working just OK in my case, but beware of adapt the network address he is using to your needs.
[11:37] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[11:37] <Svenstaro> windosor, then either go to #ubuntu+1 or use gutsy
[11:38] <windosor> ok
[11:38] <sidis405> so fellas, does hardy support properly ATI now?
[11:38] <Rageon> just installed firefox 3.0 how do i run it?...
[11:38] <algyz> Rageon:  like firefox 2.x
[11:39] <Svenstaro> sidis405, well as in "properly" properly, no not quite, give ati another 2 months. But its certainly much better than in feisty
[11:39] <Rageon> negative
[11:39] <Rageon> it didnt give me anything to click on like 2x did
[11:39] <algyz> Rageon:  type fire in terminal, then press tab several times
[11:39] <sidis405> Svenstaro :) in feisty it was a killer. took me 3 weeks to get it to properly run.
[11:40] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> hischild:alright...its done.
[11:40] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: did it give an output?
[11:40] <differentreality> right :) nmap works thank you :)
[11:40] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> ls /var/cache... grep udev ...       no...no output
[11:40] <Svenstaro> sidis405, I recently helped a noob to get a dualhead setup running on an evil ATI card, so you might have success
[11:40] <hischild> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR: hmm ...
[11:40] <sidis405> Svenstaro  so then it's pointless for me to try to fiddle with Desktop effects etc, right?
[11:41] <Rageon> algyz, yer now ive got a list of things
[11:41] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, say, you didnt, just curiously asked, run this command (DO NOT RUN IT NOW) "sudo rm /" followed by -rf? dont run it
[11:41] <DistroJockey> sidis405: what card do you have?
[11:41] <Svenstaro> sidis405, not at all, give it a go
[11:42] <Rageon> imagine being able to browse the internet that would be like supppper
[11:42] <rootpt> Rageon, ?
[11:42] <algyz> Rageon:  also you can try iceape, seamonkey, swiftfox, they are derivatives of mozilla
[11:43] <Rageon> i updated to 7:10 and firefox just crashed koz of flash all the time now ive uninstalled 2x installed 3x and 3x i cant even find where to open
[11:43] <Rageon> lol i imagine configuring flash for browsers outside mozilla would be 10x harder than ff itself :s
[11:43] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro: nope... cuz i installed before some packages by aptoncd ... and yes i guess there was a package that aware me about something..but i dont remember what.
[11:43]  * rootpt is away: almoço
[11:43] <algyz> Rageon:  you can add it to menu, also you can create shortcut in desktop.
[11:44] <Rageon> and yes ive tried gnash, nofreeblahblah etc
[11:44] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, does this give you an output: sudo ls /var/cache ?
[11:44] <Rageon> how pls
[11:44] <Rageon> what do i type in term to get it open?
[11:44] <Rageon> fire does nothing
[11:44] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> lets see
[11:44] <Tootbatot_> !squid
[11:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about squid - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:45] <differentreality> in order to connect to a computer via ssh is there some configuration that needs to be done to the computer i want to connect to ?  (atm i am interested in ussing ssh for a computer of my lan and i get error 22 connectio refused, when i excecute   ssh <IP_ADDRESS>)
[11:45] <Tootbatot_> !squide
[11:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about squide - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:45] <algyz> Rageon:  click right on desktop and you'll find, I hope. command "firefox" is in /usr/bin
[11:45] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro: yep! some directories...app-install apt debconf ...
[11:45] <Svenstaro> differentreality, not by default, but you need to install the openssh-server package on the server
[11:45] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, now try sudo ls /var/cache/apt
[11:46] <differentreality> Svenstaro, ok i'll try this :) thanks
[11:46] <TrioTorus> is it possible in linux to have an alias for a user account in /etc/passwd?
[11:46] <Rageon> right click on desktop and ill find ?
[11:47] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro: archives - pkgcache - srcpkgcache.bin
[11:47] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, now try sudo ls /var/cache/apt/archives
[11:47] <Rageon> and why everytime i start my computer the icons ive locked to a panel shift themselves around like monkeys
[11:47] <Matthew-H-> hey everyone :) I'm just wondering if it's possible to change the menu items displayed under the places menu, I can't see anything in the config editor ?
[11:47] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro:lock  - partial
[11:47] <Svenstaro> !aptlock
[11:47] <ubotu> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[11:48] <j3kyll> i'm having problems with two applications. deskbar and evolution. the deskbar won't load at all The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIIDThe panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:Deskbar_Applet". and the evolution mail app makes my desktop restart everytime i try to launch. whats wrong? please help
[11:48] <Rageon> firefox isnt in user/bin
[11:49] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, run this: wget http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/u/udev/udev_117-4ubuntu1_i386.deb && sudo dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/udev_117-4ubuntu1_i386.deb
[11:49] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro: i dont have an internet connection ... :S
[11:49] <Svenstaro> duh
[11:49] <Tootbatot_> what is squid
[11:50] <Tootbatot_> can i limit total bandwidth /s  combinely for 2 ips ? by firewall. eg ip1 + ip2  should not exceed 20kb/s  ?
[11:50] <Svenstaro> You were trying to apt-get without internet?
[11:50] <Reaby> Tootbatot_: proxyserver
[11:50] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR ^
[11:50] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro: i was installing libs and stuff by aptoncd CD
[11:50] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: Try the "shaper" package
[11:50] <simplexio>  current policy: frequency should be within 600 MHz and 600 MHz.
[11:50] <Svenstaro> YgorAbreu_ESP_BR, that kinda explains why it broke down
[11:50] <simplexio> anyidea why cpufreq-info tells that
[11:51] <Rageon> lol..
[11:51] <simplexio> max speed should be 1.6Ghz
[11:51] <Rageon> this rocks
[11:51] <Tootbatot_> mactimes like what package?
[11:51] <Tootbatot_> mactimes the name is "shaper"?
[11:51] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: shaper
[11:51] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: Yup
[11:51] <Tootbatot_> mactimes ok. wondershaper will do that too?
[11:51] <jtravnick> anybody use a sony camcorder with linux?
[11:51] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> Svenstaro: but i can download this deb files and install on the other pc...? cuz i can do it..
[11:51] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: You want to limit bandwidth for computers on the network, right?
[11:51] <Svenstaro> yeah go ahead YgorAbreu_ESP_BR
[11:51] <YgorAbreu_ESP_BR> alright then
[11:52] <differentreality> what's the host key verification when i try to use ssh ip ? i get a message that it has changed.... what exactly do I need to do in order to use the command  ssh ip ?
[11:52] <DistroJockey> Rageon: you found how to start FF3?
[11:52] <Tootbatot_> mactimes yes
[11:52] <hischild> differentreality: remove the offending key in .ssh/known_hosts
[11:52] <Rageon> yes just now
[11:52] <Matthew-H-> how is FF3? i havnt got round to trying it yet?
[11:52] <j3kyll> i'm having problems with two applications. deskbar and evolution. the deskbar won't load at all The panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIIDThe panel encountered a problem while loading "OAFIID:Deskbar_Applet". and the evolution mail app makes my desktop restart everytime i try to launch. whats wrong? please help
[11:52] <Rageon> seems aight 30 seconds in
[11:52] <DistroJockey> Rageon: In Application - Internet ?
[11:52] <Matthew-H-> hehe :P
[11:52] <Tootbatot_> mactimes yes
[11:53] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: Shaper can control bandwidth for single host ip, entire subnets, ports, etc.
[11:53] <Rageon> im just trying to get a broswer that will play FLASH and not crash for goodness sakes :s
[11:53] <DistroJockey> Rageon: heh
[11:53] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: sudo apt-get install shaper
[11:53] <tehnik> how to set mac address in network/interfaces? I tried adding "hwaddress ether 00:50:C2:80:A8:33" (according to interfaces(5)) but ethernet interface wasn't activated
[11:53] <differentreality> axm hischild to i need to erase everything in the known_hosts? cause i dont make much sense out of it :/
[11:53] <Matthew-H-> what platform are you on?
[11:53] <Tootbatot_> mactimes it can do the combined ip limiting too?\
[11:53] <Rageon> 7.10
[11:53] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: Yup
[11:53] <hischild> differentreality: you can do that, though it'll ask you every time you connect to a host if you want to add it. It's the easiest way though
[11:53] <Matthew-H-> not distro version ^^
[11:53] <Matthew-H-> what processor ?
[11:54] <Tootbatot_> mactimes thanks
[11:54] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: You're welcome.
[11:54] <Rageon> distrojockey, am i attempting a impossible task? or just an annoying time wasting one?
[11:54] <DistroJockey> Rageon: nope, fairly easy in most cases
[11:54] <Tootbatot_> mactimes do i need wondershaper or some packet shapper. ? whats the need
[11:55] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: Just do a simple:  sudo apt-get install shaper
[11:55] <DistroJockey> Rageon: Firefox with flashplugin-nonfree works fine here
[11:55] <differentreality> hischild, hmm nice :)
[11:55] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: Then you have to define traffic shaping classes under /etc/shaper
[11:55] <Tootbatot_> mactimes k
[11:56] <simplexio> Rageon: opera 9.26 + r94 flash
[11:56] <mactimes> Tootbatot_: That's all.
[11:56] <Rageon> how do u get firefox to recognize freenon is even there?
[11:56] <differentreality> one more thing... i try to connect to the remote pc via ssh and i am asked for the password of     localusername@remoteip   why is that ? I tried both my root pass AND the remote pc root pass but none works
[11:57] <hischild> differentreality: normally it tries to auth you as your own user. If you do remoteusername@remoteip you'll be good
[11:57] <hischild> differentreality: remember though: use the remote info
[11:57] <Rageon> DistroJockey,  how do u get firefox to recognize nonfree is even there?
[11:57] <DistroJockey> Rageon: didn't do anything special
[11:57] <j3kyll> can anyone help me with two application errors?
[11:57] <DistroJockey> !flash | Rageon
[11:57] <ubotu> Rageon: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[11:57] <Rageon> my konqueror doesnt even have a plugins tab lol
[11:58] <DistroJockey> Rageon: try that maybe
[11:58] <differentreality> hischild, perfect :) it worked! thank u
[11:58] <Rageon> yea i have...
[11:58] <hischild> differentreality: you're welcome
[11:58] <Rageon> dead ends with questions knowone will answer
[11:58] <algyz> !ask | j3kyll
[11:58] <DistroJockey> Rageon: you restarted FF?
[11:58] <ubotu> j3kyll: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)
[11:59] <Rageon> i dont have it open where can u go that doesnt have flash
[11:59] <Deeps> hi, how do i install a new kernel to my installed ubuntu system using a livecd or anything else (the installed kernel wont boot)
[11:59] <punzada> yay @ finding a working sirius script :P
[11:59] <DistroJockey> Rageon: please rephrase?
[11:59]  * punzada is happy now
[11:59] <Mzalendo> hi room
[11:59] <hischild> Deeps: copy a new kernel into /boot, then chroot into your old env via the live cd, and then update-grub
[11:59] <Rageon> i never open FireFox, koz it just crashes, hence no need to restart it (because its not open)
[12:00] <Mzalendo> i have a question... how do i locate the folder where my Apache2 server is installed?
