[07:04] <bstock> anyone know a good way to increse USB mouse speed
[07:04] <riotkittie> autoremove is nice. :D
[07:04] <der0b> heya folks, I've seen it countless times and can't find it now.  I need to know how to make a list of all my installed applications so that I can easily reinstall them on another ubuntu machine.  can you point me in the right direction?
[07:04] <Dorana> kahrytan: I wish, but the owner of the server refuses to update since 6.06 has longer support time :/
[07:04] <bstock> der0b: dpkg -l
[07:04] <bruenig> dpkg --get-selections or some such
[07:04] <kahrytan> Dorana, They will next april though
[07:04] <Mr_> I got is from gnome-look.org, what would cause it to be invalid?
[07:04] <riotkittie> bstock: move your hand faster?  errr nothing under mouse options?
[07:04] <bstock> so you can do 'dpkg -l > output.txt'
[07:05] <petterah> Dr_willis, magnetron  ok :) just wanted to make sure everything gets well for the release.. but i could check in the correct channel
[07:05] <bruenig> no there is a set way where you can do dpkg --get-selections > output.txt and then later do dpkg --get-selections < output.txt
[07:05] <bruenig> something like that
[07:05] <macd> Dorana, by chance did you try 'ssh user@ipofthenic'
[07:05] <bstock> not really, mouse options only let me adjust acceleration, which makes it so it speeds up as it moves, and i just want it faster overall
[07:05] <bstock> adjusting sensativity doesn't do much
[07:05] <GIn> hi
[07:05] <bstock> doesn't do anything AFAI can tell
[07:05] <Dorana> macd: yuepp
[07:05] <genii> bruenig: for the second part you want dpkg --set-selections
[07:06] <Dorana> kahrytan: whats the most recent server release?
[07:06] <GIn> I have installed kubuntu via apt-get how do I go back to Ubuntu settings?
[07:06] <riotkittie> ive never had probs with my mice :|
[07:06] <bruenig> yes that is what I meant
[07:06] <macogw> Dorana: 7.04....same as desktop
[07:06] <kahrytan> Dorana, next LTS is next April
[07:06] <macogw> GIn: what do you mean?
[07:07] <monkeyBox> has anyone ever experienced virtualbox using up 50%-100% CPU while idle?

[07:08] <ubotu> EhPrettyEasy: please see above
[07:08] <macogw> riotkittie: oh crap...maybe...but purge gets rid of the configs
[07:09] <Hobbsee> ?
[07:09] <stdin> too late Hobbsee
[07:09] <macogw> Hobbsee: they disappeared from excess flood already *shrug*
[07:09] <Hobbsee> excellent :)
[07:10] <riotkittie> ho hum. failed burn #2. i'm batting 1000 here. not.
[07:10] <gurkburk> im having such a headache with my ntfs partitions.. is there any way to, under linux ofcourse, rename a ntfs-partition? I just want the name to change..
[07:10] <Linuturk> sup guys? I've got a variation on this script: http://tuxmobil.org/software/toshiba_portege_m200/switch_orientation  << in /usr/local/bin/ with chmod +x for execute. When I attempt to run the script, I receive a bad interpretor
[07:10] <gurkburk> its called "F: 300B" and another "E: 200GB" and the :'s and spaces makes newbie-fstab etc etc pain in the ass :-p
[07:11] <coucou747> hi all
[07:11] <flugendufel> hello there
[07:11] <Dr_Willis_> gurkburk the fstab can use /dev/whatever entries and you can set it to mount to whever ya want. changeign its name.
[07:11] <macd> Linuturk, are you on 64bit?
[07:11] <kahrytan> gurkburk,  name them like window's does?
[07:11] <riotkittie> gurkburk: errr.  dont worry about the windows naming convention.
[07:11] <Dr_Willis_> gurkburk its proberly using the disks lavel as the default name. Change the mountpoint in fstab.
[07:11] <Linuturk> macd: nope
[07:11] <gurkburk> I know it can theoretically be named anything...
[07:12] <metellius> I am using a webcam driver that uses quite a bit of battery on my laptop. How can I keep ubuntu from loading the module automatically at boot and instead do it manually? Or maybe there is another way to keep the module from using battery through the webcam?
[07:12] <macd> Linuturk, did you chmod +x or chmod a+x it ;)
[07:12] <gurkburk> Its just that ubuntu seems to automount stuff when I reboot, and having names that have : and spaces etc, makes using umount, mount etc etc kindof annoying
[07:12] <Linuturk> macd: sudo chmod 777 blah
[07:12] <magnetron> !blacklist | metellius
[07:12] <ubotu> metellius: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u
[07:13] <kahrytan> gurkburk, you want to name it like how Windows does it?
[07:13] <macd> Linuturk, does 'sh /path/to/script' work ?
[07:13] <tsukasa> need some help, i cant get nvidia-settings to work. it keeps telling me to run nvidia-xconfig which i do but when i restart x it says run it again
[07:13] <Linuturk> macd: haven't tried that, one sec
[07:13] <riotkittie> ive got to boot into windows so i can burn. heh.
[07:13] <kahrytan> gurkburk,  a Disk label?
[07:13] <genii> magnetron: Can you still modprobe <modname> if it's blacklisted?
[07:13] <gurkburk> Yes, since ubuntu automatically (cant figure out how to turn it off) mounts my partitions as the "window's label"
[07:13] <Linuturk> macd: ok, it threw some errors
[07:13] <Linuturk> syntax
[07:13] <Linuturk> let me fiddle some more
[07:14] <kaje> Is there a way I can tell which repository a package came from?
[07:14] <gurkburk> meaning, the disc that in windows was ntfs and labeled F: 300GB (it had the F: in the actual label), then I get a "F: 300GB" in my /media (its called /media/F:\040300GB) and in fstab and its annoying! :-p
[07:14] <macd> Linuturk, yeah sounds like general bash scripting problems now :)
[07:14] <kahrytan> gurkburk, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive
[07:14] <Dorana> kahrytan , macd : found error.... going to bash the owner now,. he shanged ports for all connection while tsting some stuff without documenting any changes
[07:14] <Pici> kaje: apt-cache policy packagename should tell you
[07:14] <Linuturk> macd: did you see the link? does the syntax look bad?
[07:14] <kaje> Pici: thanks!
[07:14] <gurkburk> kahrytan: right, ill check that even though its sata-discs, thanks m8 :)
[07:15] <genii> metellius: If you know the problemmatic module name you can "rmmod <modulename>"  to remove it from a running kernel or "modprobe <modulename>" to insert it
[07:15] <macd> Linuturk, I didnt catch a link if you pastebinned the script
[07:15] <Linuturk> http://tuxmobil.org/software/toshiba_portege_m200/switch_orientation << all I did was add some comments and change a few keycode values
[07:15] <gurkburk> kahrytan:  you dont happen to know if I can make ubuntu (running feisty fawn) stop automounting?
[07:15] <macd> Dorana, wonderful.
[07:15] <Linuturk> macd: ^^
[07:15] <kahrytan> gurkburk, edit fstab
[07:15] <gurkburk> If I remove the lines in fstab, and reboot, its edited with new entries for the discs
[07:15] <Dorana> macd: this is why you ALWAYS write documentation of changes :P
[07:16] <macd> Linuturk, I see the error, change the path to xrandr to /usr/bin/xrandr
[07:16] <gurkburk> kahrytan:  Could be ntfs-3g that I installed perhaps, since its ntfs-discs
[07:16] <Linuturk> macd: no, that isn't it. do a "whereis xrandr"
[07:16] <Linuturk> macd: it will show that path
[07:16] <kaje> Pici: that didn't seem to work... only told me the version information
[07:16] <gurkburk> kahrytan: All I know is that im fully capable of making mounts in fstab myself, if it wernt for ubuntu screwing me over every reboot :-p
[07:16] <macd> Linuturk, on feisty it is, do 'which xrandr, and which xmodmap'
[07:17] <kahrytan> gurkburk, turn off ntfs-3g and find out
[07:17] <macd> Linuturk, which makes the difference in shell scripts, its the absolute path.
[07:17] <macd> Linuturk, so both xrandr and xmodmap should be changed to /usr/bin/
[07:17] <macogw> gurkburk: try using ntfs-config to make changes
[07:18] <Pici> kaje: Are you sure, mine has a line that says "500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com feisty/main Packages
[07:18] <macd> Dorana, well I guess we could have tried using 'lsof' to find out what pot ssh was bound to, but it never came to mind to be honest. I just ASSumed it was 22.
[07:18] <Linuturk> macd: ok, I fixed all those, and I'm getting the same error
[07:18] <Dorana> macd : all working now, thanks for the helping hand ^^
[07:18] <macd> Linuturk, paste the error in pastebin plz
[07:18] <Linuturk> something like, expecting "then" but got "fi" macd
[07:19] <kaje> Pici: I'm starting to wonder if this package was downloaded and installed... thanks for the help
[07:19] <guru> does anyone here use freevo?
[07:19] <macd> Linuturk, yeah its missing some ;'s
[07:20] <guru> or better yet, does anyone here know of an alternative to mythtv that allows buffering of a video source?
[07:20] <Linuturk> where macd ?
[07:20] <macd> Linuturk, remove the ; after the first if line
[07:20] <macd> Linuturk, so ] ; becomes just  ]
[07:21] <Linuturk> ok, macd
[07:21] <gurkburk> macogw: thanks for your tip's, gonna reboot and fiddle some with this ;)
[07:21] <freetos> is anyone else having problems recording something with ubuntustudio's default configuration?
[07:22] <macd> Linuturk, lets just hope my bash isnt as rusty as I think it is ;)
[07:22] <sistom> How come every avi file I try and open it crashes every single movie player I try and open it with?
[07:23] <riotkittie> sistom: do you have the proper codecs installed?
[07:23] <rsk> sistom: buygged drivers?
[07:23] <rsk> sistom: tried mplayer?
[07:23] <sistom> I have gone thru the synaptic and searched for codecs a few times
[07:23] <sistom> and installed all the ones that sound appropriate
[07:23] <magnetron> !codec | sistom
[07:23] <ubotu> sistom: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:23] <sistom> yes mplayer crashes
[07:24] <rsk> sistom: what error does mplayer give?
[07:24] <sistom> one sec
[07:24] <sistom> oh
[07:24] <sistom> mplayer just hangs
[07:24] <magnetron> sistom: install the ubuntu-restricted-extras package
[07:24] <sistom> and then says it recieved a signal 6
[07:24] <rsk> sistom: mplayer from command line or gmplayer fromGUI ?
[07:24] <Linuturk> macd: cleaning it up? what should I change?
[07:24] <macd> Linuturk, just remove the ; I mentioned it should work fine
[07:24] <X324B> may I ask a question about dual monitors on an ATI video card ?
[07:24] <sistom> gui
[07:25] <rsk> sistom: try command line
[07:25] <macd> sistom, you can run mplayer from console with gdb and create a trace which can better help to diagnose the problem, i.e. in terminal 'gdb mplayer'
[07:25] <X324B> If I just hook up another monitor will Ubuntu work on both ?
[07:25] <riotkittie> i would rather have another child than go through the pain of trying to get dual monitors going on an ati :|
[07:25] <astro76> sistom, yeah install ubuntu-restricted-extras, also did you happen to install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll ? that caused similar behavior for me
[07:26] <sistom> ubuntu-restrict ver. 2.2?
[07:26] <astro76> !info ubuntu-restricted-extras
[07:26] <ubotu> ubuntu-restricted-extras: Commonly used restricted packages. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 2.2 (feisty), package size 1 kB, installed size 32 kB
[07:26] <Linuturk> macd: not working :-/
[07:26] <riotkittie> X324B: i believe you'll need to edit xorg.conf to some extent, even if you just want to get them cloned
[07:27] <X324B> Thanks
[07:27] <riotkittie> brb. booting live cd :o
[07:27] <bwl> To install ubuntu on a software raid + lvm partition schema, is it recommended to create the whole disk as one big raid array and add lvm on top of that?
[07:27] <nightfreak> hi, when trying to install packages an a remote server i get an error: Err http://security.ubuntu.com dapper-security/main php5 5.1.2-1ubuntu3.4
[07:27] <nightfreak>   404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[07:27] <macd> Linuturk, paste the error on pastebin plz
[07:27] <sistom> gstreamer isn't installed
[07:27] <sistom> well that one you said isn;t.
[07:27] <nightfreak> any idea whats wrong?
[07:28] <macd> Linuturk, ohh and the script as you have it currently
[07:28] <timothy_> I am a novice and need assistance
[07:28] <disposition> can anyone help me regarding a problem with how my system is reading partitions?
[07:28] <USMarine> bwl yes, you have to use the alternate cd
[07:29] <nunya> with what timothy?
[07:29] <bwl> nightfreak: i guess you've done an apt-get update?
[07:29] <Linuturk> one sec macd
[07:29] <USMarine> disposition what's the problem?
[07:29] <disposition> i have a 100gb partition split into a 17 and a 74 gig. my / directory reports 3.2 when i disable disk analysis of my second partition
[07:29] <timothy_> I am logged in as admin but do not have root access
[07:29] <disposition> but my system is telling me i'm full, and that my primary partition has 16.2gb used up
[07:29] <bwl> USMarine: i've tried it but I first created one separate partition for /boot and then rest for raid + lvm -- now I read that it was possible to just use the whole disk as raid + lvm
[07:29] <disposition> df and du report that my primary partition is full
[07:29] <sistom> Installing ubuntu-restricted-extras v. 2.2
[07:29] <sistom> that should fix it?
[07:30] <USMarine> bwl boot can't be in lvm, well at least without some tweaking
[07:30] <disposition> could it be possible that i accidently copied over 13gb of data to my /media/dispona (second partition mount point) before it actually mounted?
[07:30] <nunya> timothy_: you enabled the root account, or your username is admin?
[07:31] <erUSUL> disposition: no, you can not copy data if the fs is not mounted
[07:31] <USMarine> disposition is there a mount point in the 74gb one?
[07:31] <sistom> if you want to enable root you have to type: sudo passwd root
[07:31] <Linuturk> macd: pastebin.ca/709402
[07:31] <timothy_> user name is timothy and I have given myself administrator access
[07:31] <nightfreak> bwl no, now it works, thanks
[07:31] <ephesius> does anyone know why i wouldn't be able to login to ubuntu?
[07:31] <disposition> USMarine: yes, /media/disponia
[07:31] <USMarine> ephesius account disabled, wrong pass
[07:31] <erUSUL> sistom: do not advice on enabling root please
[07:31] <erUSUL> !root | sistom
[07:31] <ubotu> sistom: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:31] <sistom> o_O
[07:31] <savetheWorld> just noticed this - is it normal for there to be about  4000 lines of bash functions pre-defined for user ?
[07:32] <macd> Linuturk, line 37 complete the work orientation
[07:32] <bwl> USMarine: thanks, so my installation using one raid1 partition for /boot and rest for lvm should be okey without any special tweak?
[07:32] <macd> word*
[07:32] <opium> or your can boot your ubuntu box into single user mode and change the root password
[07:32] <timothy_> I need root access while installing programs from the GUI
[07:32] <nunya> timothy_: you username already has admin privs. You have to preface your commands with sudo
[07:32] <vulcanius> sistom, you should use sudo in every situation possible unless root as just absolutely necessary
[07:32] <ephesius> USMarine, it is the right password and i don't think the account is disabled, when i try to login it just freezes, well not freezes but it just never logs in or anything is just sits there same when I try to login in the terminal
[07:32] <Linuturk> o, sorry
[07:32] <USMarine> bwl raid1 is space sum right, not mirror?
[07:32] <Linuturk> lol, that was something left over from testing macd
[07:32] <stefg> !root | timothy_
[07:32] <ubotu> timothy_: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:32] <nunya> timothy_ ex... sudo aptitude install application
[07:32] <bwl> USMarine: mirror
[07:33] <USMarine> add a /boot and swap
[07:33] <USMarine> then map the rest with lvm
[07:33] <sistom> aye aye
[07:33] <USMarine> swap can be in the lvm also
[07:33] <USMarine> just a question of preference
[07:33] <bwl> USMarine: cool, that's exactly what I've done.. swap is also separate
[07:33] <Linuturk> macd: assume it completed, and that echo's the correct mode (for debugging on my end)
[07:33] <nunya> timothy_: using add/remove or synaptide will ask you for the root password... it's the same as your username password.
[07:33] <disposition> USMarine: do you have any ideas what is wrong with my partition?
[07:33] <Shapeshifter> Small question: It seems like it's impossible to submit a password with vpnc-connect directly via the command line, but only through the config file. But I'd like to let zenity ask for the pw, so that I can type it and the vpnc-connect takes that string as the pw. Any chance?
[07:34] <bwl> USMarine: but i get a kernel panic on boot, I'll try to do it once again, thanks for your help
[07:34] <bwl> USMarine: I must've missed something else :)
[07:34] <nunya> *synaptic duh
[07:34] <USMarine> disposition from what i read, your partition size alters wether you have partition 2 mounted or not?
[07:34] <disposition> not quite
[07:34] <sistom> Hey,
[07:34] <Linuturk> macd: I think there is something wrong with the if, then, else, fi statement
[07:34] <USMarine> bwl /boot should be ext3
[07:34] <vulcanius> disposition, which filesystem is reported as full, /?
[07:34] <bwl> USMarine: yep, everything is ext3
[07:34] <edefesio> Hi,how can I find out wether I am running an ubuntu 32bit or 64 bits? (feisty) thx
[07:34] <disposition> vulcanius: yes
[07:34] <USMarine> bwl reiserfs ftw
[07:34] <macd> Linuturk, it looks fine to me, I mean thats how it works, if foo then bar else foobar fi
[07:34] <timothy_> synaptic does not work with installing virus software either
[07:35] <vulcanius> disposition, how large did you make your root filesystem when installing?
[07:35] <USMarine> edefesio cat /proc/version
[07:35] <erUSUL> edefesio: uname -m
[07:35] <disposition> but disk usage analysis says that only 3.2gb of it exists when i disable my /media/disponia partition
[07:35] <nightfreak> whats the best way to get a stable lamp installation with an up to date php version (>= 5.2) on dapper?
[07:35] <disposition> 17gb
[07:35] <sistom> MPlayer gives me this error: Fatal Error! Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
[07:35] <edefesio> erUSUL nop says -generic
[07:35] <sistom> wtf?
[07:35] <disposition> my disponia partition is 74.4gb
[07:35] <edefesio> USMarine lets see..
[07:35] <sistom> and, the default player will play like half a second of the movie and the hang.
[07:35] <bwl> USMarine: heh, i started with ext3 just to get everything to work first :)
[07:35] <ephesius> anyone else have any idea why the terminal or gdm would freeze when I try to login?
[07:36] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  ati video card?
[07:36] <disposition> vulcanius: df -h / reports /dev/sda1              17G   16G   37M 100% /
[07:36] <ephesius> Dr_willis: yes
[07:36] <edefesio> USMarine /proc/version contains the same as uname -a ...
[07:36] <disposition> but disk analysis usage reports that / is only 3.2gb
[07:36] <USMarine> bwl reiserfs owns really
[07:36] <Shapeshifter> Anyone? I'd like to let vpnc-connect call for a pw via a dialog (zenity)
[07:36] <sistom> anyone!??!?
[07:36] <ephesius> Dr_willis: its an ati radeon 7500 mobility, i have a t40, but its worked fine since 5.04
[07:36] <USMarine> edefesio arch
[07:36] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  on my x200m - i have to use the console and 'startx' when using the fglrx driver. not sure what the deal is. I get hangs when i logout, also i recall some hangs when logging in and fglrx with the aceleration enabled.
[07:36] <macd> Linuturk, Im a bit stumped, you could ask in #bash and get a faster answer Im thinking
[07:37] <sistom> MPlayer gives me this error: Fatal Error! Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device.
[07:37] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  thats the problem with ati stuff.. it can be.. picky.
[07:37] <vulcanius> disposition, i'd suggest using either filelight or baobab to find out exactly what is using up all that space
[07:37] <disposition> how do i get filelight
[07:37] <bwl> USMarine: i haven't tested it for many years, maybe I should give it a chance.. last time my fs got corrupted, but this was a long time ago
[07:37] <ephesius> Dr_willis: I am just running the open source ati driver, not fglrx
[07:37] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  try the normal ati ati driver, try the vesa driver ,  see what ones work. i guess. i finially got mine working with fglrx (i just cant use gdm/kdm) oddly
[07:38] <edefesio> USMarine arch sais i686 but nothing about the kernel (32 vs 64) nor about the distro
[07:38] <disposition> vulcanius: actually, i'll be able to find that mucho nline. thank you
[07:38] <erUSUL> sistom: and what video_out are you using?
[07:38] <USMarine> edefesio it's 32bits
[07:38] <USMarine> x86_64 would be the output if it was 64bts
[07:38] <nunya> edefesio: uname -r
[07:38] <edefesio> USMarine how would it look like if it were 64bit?
[07:38] <erUSUL> edefesio: i686=32bit
[07:38] <ephesius> Dr_willis, i do use the normal ati driver, im pretty sure it has nothing to do with it because when it freezes up when I try to su to my username from the rescue terminal

[07:39] <tsukasa> can i report a gnome bug?
[07:39] <USMarine> disposition sorry, i've no idea how to workaround your problem
[07:40] <tsukasa> or at least i think its a bug. dont know why this would be intended behavior if it is
[07:40] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  i guess that can eliminate the video stuff then.
[07:40] <ephesius> Dr_willis: i have no idea whats causing it, i even deleted my username and re-added it
[07:40] <macd> tsukasa, yes at http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu
[07:40] <luca> hi all, 'sensors detect' shows me just one core (after upgrade, using Gutsy), but I have a dual one processore :), can you help me?
[07:41] <Dr_willis> ephesius,  try other users?  try sshing in, and having a log tail going while it crashes.. perhaps

[07:42] <silk_sword> can some one help me on squid configuration ???
[07:42] <ephesius> Dr_willis, i can login as root as well as another user I created, you think i should tail /var/log?
[07:42] <vulcanius> disposition, if your still around, do "df -i -m" for me and let me know what it returns
[07:42] <yeniklasorr> Do you have sometimes freezing on ubuntu like me ?
[07:43] <USMarine> nop
[07:43] <USMarine> uptime of 10 days and no freeze
[07:43] <yeniklasorr> :(
[07:43] <yeniklasorr> could this be from installed packages ?
[07:44] <USMarine> maybe incorrectly configured X
[07:44] <luca> USMarine, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38472/
[07:44] <USMarine> does it freeze without X ?
[07:44] <yeniklasorr> no

[07:45] <vulcanius> sid, cat /etc/crontab

[07:45] <USMarine> luca you're not using and SMP kernel
[07:46] <USMarine> an*
[07:46] <vulcanius> sid or you can use "crontab -u user -l" to list crontabs of each user
[07:46] <magnetron> Ali_ix: during the support period
[07:46] <luca> no, is it bad?
[07:46] <USMarine> only 1 core is being used
[07:46] <sid> thanks a lot vulcanius and USMarine, I appreciate the help.
[07:47] <luca> and, in order to use both, what should I do?
[07:47] <Ali_ix> magnetron: security releases and patches apply fast, but normal, general bug fix releases not :| i cant understand when is "Needed"
[07:47] <USMarine> use an SMP kernel
[07:47] <USMarine> or generic
[07:47] <Ali_ix> magnetron: thanksfor answer
[07:47] <USMarine> i'm not sure
[07:47] <luca> before last upgrade with Gutsy it shows both
[07:47] <luca> mh, ok & thanks

[07:49] <knoopx> hi all
[07:49] <Hoag> Hey. Is there any kind of panel tool that can control rhythmbox? (Similar in function to a desklet, but on a gnomepanel)
[07:49] <sethk> idefixx, yes, it is bad.
[07:50] <knoopx> is there a way out to turn back the "remember password for this session" part of gnome gksudo?
[07:50] <sethk> idefixx, some of the spam email eliminators check for matching forward and reverse DNS
[07:50] <sethk> idefixx, in general it can trigger various types of software searching for malware.
[07:51] <SS2> knoopx: yep, the password is saved in gnome key ring manager

[07:55] <runemaste644> can i change my login screen resolution without editing xorg.conf?

[07:56] <silk_sword> can some one help me on squid configuration ???
[07:56] <jalsot> unfortunately I don't know how to build/prepare that glibc for dapper
[07:56] <silk_sword> can some one help me on squid configuration ???
[07:57] <genii> runemaste644: the ctrl-alt- (numpad -   or numpad +) will cycle thru the ones you have in your xorg.conf   but if it is not in there you won't hit it
[07:57] <Electrosys> Can anyone help me with my compiz desktop effects. I had the cube going, then I did something wrong and now all I can get going is a plane with only two desktops instead of four. Im using fiesty. ?
[07:58] <stefg> jalsot: i'd guess it's less pain to simply use a newer ubuntu version.... Feisty is quite good, and 8.04 will be the next LTS then
[07:58] <runemaste644> would i need numlock on?

[07:58] <runemaste644> i use a laptop keyboard
[07:58] <HumanHeart> hello, can anybody herlp me please?
[07:58] <runemaste644> and will that set ti to that permanetely?
[07:59] <genii> runemaste644: If on laptop with that embedded numlock keyboard, yes, needs to be enabled for the - and + normally on that
[07:59] <jalsot> stefg: aahhh, I cannot use anything than LTS - that's a policy here - neither 8.04 right after release [need to wait for some months before upgrading]
[07:59] <runemaste644> ill try that
[07:59] <genii> runemaste644: Whatever you leave the resolution on when you logout returns that way
[07:59] <macogw> the - and + are usually not part of the laptop's num keyboard
[07:59] <macogw> they're usually next to 0, aren't they?
[07:59] <macogw> mine are
[08:00] <Electrosys> Thanks Evanlac.
[08:01] <sethk> macogw, it varies somewhat.  don't forget that there is a num lock key that changes some keys
[08:01] <runemaste644> it didnt quite work
[08:01] <runemaste644> it was pretty close
[08:01] <presto> does anyone know why when I press ctrl+h i get a new window instead of showing my hidden files?
[08:02] <macogw> sethk: there's usually a + and - both on the row of regular numbers and with the numpad that sprawls over the letters
[08:02] <macogw> presto: dvorak?
[08:02] <genii> macogw: On a regular 105 keyboard only the ones to right of numpad work ... on laptop if they only have 1 - and 1 + at end of number row maybe those will work, unless numpad-lock seting on the laptop also makes another - and +
[08:02] <runemaste644> presto: what file browser do you use?
[08:02] <runemaste644> it did switch the res
[08:02] <sethk> macogw, yes, that's true.  But some of the non-english keyboards are missing certain keys (or rather the keys are used for other characters)
[08:03] <runemaste644> but the right one wasnt there
[08:03] <macogw> genii: why would only the numpad + and - work?
[08:03] <sethk> macogw, so on some foreign laptop keyboards you may need to use num lock to get +
[08:03] <Shapeshifter> Small question: It seems like it's impossible to submit a password with vpnc-connect directly via the command line, but only through the config file. But I'd like to let zenity ask for the pw, so that I can type it and the vpnc-connect takes that string as the pw. Any chance?
[08:03] <genii> macogw: Not sure but thats how it is on all the ones i have
[08:03] <presto> runemaster: nautilis
[08:03] <macogw> Shapeshifter: why does it seem impossible? works fine for me
[08:03] <sethk> genii, macogw, it's perfectly possible to configure something so numpad + works and normal + does not.  The commands to scroll through X resolutions work this way on a standard keyboard.
[08:04] <runemaste644> it should show hidden files
[08:04] <macogw> sethk: weird
[08:04] <macogw> sethk: make that "weird and silly"
[08:04] <runemaste644> it works for me
[08:04] <sethk> macogw, I agree.  I wasn't saying that it's a good idea, only that the behavior does exist.
[08:04] <genii> runemaste644: Then if your video card and monitor can both do this other resolution, you will still need to add it to your xorg.conf. But at least that is a one-time change to make, it will be there afterwards
[08:04] <presto> yeah it should but its not i can still go to the menu and check it and it works but ctrl+h doesnt work right
[08:05] <macogw> Shapeshifter: the pw isnt echoed back to you or shown with **** but it does get entered
[08:05] <fc4perl588> is there a hotkey to pull down the Applications menu? i don't have a mouse hooked up and i'm in fiesty x server
[08:06] <runemaste644> well i pretty much want to plain set up a login screen resolution

[08:08] <kerik> hey guys
[08:08] <bruenig> !ot | kerik
[08:08] <ubotu> kerik: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[08:09] <kerik> can you tell me how to actually run a program through Wine?
[08:09] <Kopfgeldjaeger> how can i replace one 2 newlines (if they are "together") in a text file? \n\n\n should become \n, and \n\n should become \n
[08:09] <Factory> kerik: check #wine
[08:09] <bruenig> kerik, wine whatever.exe
[08:09] <Factory> keirk: THe short answer is wine filename
[08:09] <Shapeshifter> Question: How can I insert a text string into a textfile at a certain point (not just append it) and how can I delete text at a certain point?
[08:09] <runemaste644> right click a windows executable kerik and select open with wine windows emulator
[08:09] <Factory> Shapeshifter: open the text file and edit it.
[08:09] <Shapeshifter> or at least how can I delete text at the end of a text file?
[08:09] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, do you have something specific?
[08:10] <Shapeshifter> yeah, I mean by a command line command like cat
[08:10] <kerik> runemaste644, in which dir do I find it?
[08:10] <Factory> "nano textfile.text"
[08:10] <kerik> runemaste644, thanks for the info btw :)
[08:10] <runemaste644> where is the executable?
[08:10] <Shapeshifter> no, I mean by one single command that sends the text into the file without any other applications
[08:10] <teclis> hi, I can't login into my gnome desktop, only failsafe works. How can I fix this issue?
[08:10] <runemaste644> the .exe file
[08:10] <kerik> runemaste644, it's in desktop
[08:10] <runemaste644> right click it
[08:10] <Shapeshifter> like cat. but cat always appends to the end of the file, doesnt it?
[08:10] <kerik> done
[08:11] <Shapeshifter> and how to delete text at the end of a file with a single command (without editing by hand)
[08:11] <kerik> runemaste644, done....should I add a command string?
[08:11] <runemaste644> to what?
[08:11] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, the easiest way is just to do sed 's/string//' -i file
[08:12] <kerik> runemaste644, I right clicked..now what?
[08:12] <runemaste644> select openwith wine windows emulator
[08:12] <USMarine> Shapeshifter echo " " > filename
[08:12] <kerik> can't choose that
[08:12] <Electrosys> Kopfqeldjaeger: I think you can use either Awk and make and Awk program or use possibley a script or I know c or C++ could do it.
[08:12] <runemaste644> y?
[08:12] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, as far as inserting an entire line, for instance say inserting a line after line 5, you would do head -n5 textfile > newtextfile && echo "your new line" >> newtextfile && tail -n+7 textfile >>newtextfile
[08:12] <Electrosys> Kopfqeldjaeger: or do search and replace.
[08:12] <kerik> runemaste644, it aint there
[08:12] <kerik> runemaste644, in the list
[08:12] <runemaste644> do you have wine?
[08:13] <Shapeshifter> bruenig: I'll google on that, thx. Just to be more specific I'd like to add a ~20 digit line at the end of a file, save it then execute a command and then erase that line in that file
[08:13] <kerik> runemaste644, I ought to...
[08:13] <runemaste644> if it is not installed then of course you cant open it
[08:13] <runemaste644> it is in the ubuntu repos
[08:13] <bruenig> Shapeshifter, if you would give your question in less abstract terms, it could be explained better. Abstract terms are ok if you know more about what you are talking about, but it is uncertain exactly what you mean.
[08:13] <kerik> runemaste644, kinda knew that one...oh ok will try to check
[08:14] <kerik> its intalled
[08:14] <Electrosys> Where can I find a beginners guid to install a windows emulator into ubuntu fiesty.
[08:14] <silk_sword> what si fire starter
[08:14] <bruenig> !virtualization
[08:14] <silk_sword> what is firestarter
[08:14] <ubotu> There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[08:14] <bruenig> !iptables | silk_sword
[08:14] <ubotu> silk_sword: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).

[08:31] <disposition> don't ask me, man
[08:31] <itnet7_away> you must have more than one partition... or when you redid your machine you must have chosen install in only available space
[08:31] <disposition> i'm the one who doesn't know
[08:31] <itnet7_away> ;-P
[08:31] <disposition> i'm not trying to fuck with your mind here, i'm just trying to figure out what's going on :(

[08:34] <t2t> THANKS
[08:34] <disposition> which other filesystem?
[08:34] <magnetron> disposition: try the octave package, it's similar to matlab
[08:34] <RxDx> is 512 DDR 400 sufficient to run WindowsXP on VirtualBox or VMWare?
[08:34] <vulcanius> the one that you say is causing / to fill up
[08:34] <disposition> magnetron: i can't. they require exact commands from matlab for grading
[08:34] <disposition> vulcanius: no, should i umount it?

[08:36] <disposition> i set aside 74gb for it and it's even reporting wrong
[08:36] <zakate> why mac os is better and faster than linux?

[08:39] <praet> scag: /apps/nautilus/desktop/volumes_visible
[08:39] <Shapeshifter> PriceChild: Well, then another question: How to erase text at the end of a file? Or just the last line?
[08:39] <praet> Shapeshifter: research bash scripting
[08:39] <magnetron> travisbickle: the new kernel will include a new scheduler, that will improve the responsiveness of all linux computing
[08:40] <PriceChild> Shapeshifter, well all depends what text it is your wanting to remove, but its more involved than just a simple command
[08:40] <xOjka> nice
[08:40] <Pici> Shapeshifter: #bash might be able to help you come up with a script to do that.
[08:40] <Shapeshifter> praet: any good sources? google doesn't go to well eith "how to delete text file line" or something like that :|
[08:40] <xOjka> time to go to the emacs church :)
[08:40] <Shapeshifter> Pici: ok thx!

[08:41] <twelve_gaugeRage> ty ubotu
[08:41] <praet> Shapeshifter: do you want to do it on the command line or run a script with a file as an argument?
[08:42] <travisbickle> magnetron: Should i try reinstalling firefox? I use swiftfox but i don't know to uninstall em in linux.
[08:42] <virtuelv> hm, after removing sun-java6, I can no longer run Java
[08:42] <virtuelv> (I did install java5-*
[08:42] <itnet7> disposition, the only explanation is that you must have installed ubuntu in the available space, some times. The only suggestion I have for you is to have someone download the standalone gparted and delete the other partition.. Unless you chose to make the remaining space your swap
[08:42] <Shapeshifter> praet: It's part of a bash script. I just need one line at the end of the file erased.
[08:42] <itnet7> atleast that I can think of
[08:42] <runemaste644> sorry my router timed out
[08:42] <Shapeshifter> praet: it will always be the same line "n"
[08:43] <itnet7> then extend the little partition... I re-read my post and I sound like yoda sorry about that
[08:43] <runemaste644> disposition: what did you do when it said it filled up?
[08:43] <magnetron> travisbickle: i would recommend you trying the epiphany-browser. it uses the same rendering engine as firefox, but is lighter and faster. i tried swiftfox, but couldn't notice any difference
[08:44] <travisbickle> magnetron: can I watch youtube vids in that too? How would i go about installing all the extensions/plugins? I had em automatically installed before?
[08:44] <JDStone> when does Gutsy go final?
[08:45] <joakim-> 17 oct or something like that
[08:45] <joakim-> 18 maybe
[08:45] <rsk> JDStone: in a month or so
[08:45] <magnetron> travisbickle: epiphany supports firefox plugins, but not extensions. it has some own, though
[08:45] <JDStone> rsk: alright, thanks
[08:45] <magnetron> travisbickle: try it, it's easy
[08:45] <wabid> is there a way to add run/open as root to the right click menu in nautilus
[08:45] <Electrosys> How can I get multiple instances of Movie Player running in fiesty?
[08:45] <magnetron> travisbickle: it supports flash video as much as firefox, as it uses the same rendering engine.
[08:46] <neverblue> currently I am using the embedded mplayer in FF, if I wanted to use totem, what would I need to install?
[08:46] <konam> someone knows how to change the openoffice splash? I've tried several methods but nothing works
[08:46] <konam> :/
[08:46] <travisbickle> magnetron: Yeah but do i have to manually install everything or would it find and use the same plugins firefox does?
[08:46] <neverblue> and do I need to remove mplayer addon?
[08:46] <magnetron> travisbickle: it uses the same
[08:47] <magnetron> travisbickle: install it with "add/remove applications"

[09:13] <itnet7> disregard the i mean
[09:13] <kahrytan> John_Priest, right click on tray icon and hide it too
[09:13] <neverblue> currently I am using the embedded mplayer in FF, if I wanted to use totem, what would I need to install?
[09:13] <phoenix24> all the i-nodes allocated by my filesystem are depleted.. How can I create more i-nodes ?

[09:13] <mweichert_> anyone have dns problems when using a windows ads as a dns server?

[09:14] <itnet7> konam, change the permissions then edit it, you might get away with leaving it alone, but I always restore the permissions personally
[09:14] <vulcanius> phoenix24, http://docsrv.sco.com:507/en/OSAdminG/fsD.noInodes.html
[09:14] <vulcanius> phoenix24, i'd suggest removing files before modifying the filesystem
[09:15] <mweichert> magnetron: my problem is only on ubuntu
[09:15] <neverblue> im sure it is :)
[09:15] <konam> itnet7 well, i just know that with the permissions that my user have is not enought to make it work, i will put the permissions back to 444
[09:15] <konam> that must do the work
[09:16] <John_Priest> ubuntu, and problems?
[09:16] <John_Priest> lies, all lies
[09:16] <neverblue> currently I am using the embedded mplayer in FF, if I wanted to use totem, what would I need to install?

[09:23] <scraliontis> es sind mehr deutsch in #ubuntu-de
[09:23] <scraliontis> als hier. hier sprechen wir nur english
[09:24] <scraliontis> i said he should go to ubuntu-de
[09:24] <monkeyBox> Ok, I have no idea why, but NetworkManager clears out my /etc/resolv.conf when I connect to my VPN.
[09:25] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: as your on a vpn - so your settings won't be usable
[09:25] <Kaelten-clone> will it be bad for me to use a gusty package with feisty?
[09:25] <ikonia_> yes
[09:25] <ikonia_> very
[09:25] <scraliontis> the packages dont match up
[09:25] <Kaelten> :(
[09:25] <nextone> how can i connect to my wireless network router?
[09:25] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  what do you mean, my settings won't be usable.  I can opt to not use my VPN's DNS...
[09:25] <riotkittie> ugh. i should have sucked it up and retried compiling a kernel.
[09:25] <Kaelten> problem is the lighttpd package for feisty has a security issue
[09:26] <fiXXXerMet> Why does my ssh session keep timing out?
[09:26] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: if you don't use your vpns dns - you shouldn't be able (potentially) to use dns
[09:26] <vsbuffalo> hey all, I recently switched to wmii - but can't seem to find open office on my fs. Where do these live?
[09:26] <ikonia_> fiXXXerMet: common cause = flakey net OR a router time out config at the other end
[09:26] <ikonia_> vsbuffalo: what is wmii
[09:26] <fiXXXerMet> ikonia_: What I mean is I can connect but when I leave it sitting there, it times out
[09:26] <vsbuffalo> ikonia_: a window manager
[09:27] <Pici> vsbuffalo: where it usually does, /usr/bin/openoffice
[09:27] <vsbuffalo> without the gnome smeny
[09:27] <vsbuffalo> *menu
[09:27] <ikonia_> fiXXXerMet: thats most likey a network device forcing an idle timeout
[09:27] <fiXXXerMet> not an sshd setting?
[09:27] <ikonia_> yes, it can be
[09:27] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  Why not?  I've certainly done it before..   All the VPN does is set up a ppp interface and allow me to connect to the remote network via that interface.  Setting up DNS is completely optional
[09:27] <ikonia_> but thats not he most common
[09:27] <Kaelten> so is the only real chance I have of getting a newer lighttpd version in feisty is to handroll it?
[09:27] <monkeyBox> I should still be able use my same /etc/resolv.conf  to resolve domain names
[09:28] <vsbuffalo> Pici that is in my $PATH - is there a reason why I cant get it started
[09:28] <anonylulz> hello I'm trying to install something with package installer but i get "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: wine"
[09:28] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: to put is simple, I'll give you an easy example. If your address is <IP_ADDRESS> and you vpn in and get a <IP_ADDRESS> address, your <IP_ADDRESS> address won't be able to see dns servers on the <IP_ADDRESS> network
[09:28] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: hence why I said "potentially"
[09:29] <ikonia_> anonylulz: which package installer and which package and where did you get the package
[09:29] <bluefoxy> I am using vmware server now, and it says the bridged ethernet at /dev/vmnet0 can't come up because the bridged ethernet interface is down.  How do I fix?
[09:29] <anonylulz> it's wine-doors and I got it at the wine-doors site
[09:29] <anonylulz> the package installer is the one that came with ubuntu
[09:29] <anonylulz> i'm running live cd also
[09:29] <ikonia_> anonylulz: which one, there are a few. Did you download a .deb package from another site ?
[09:30] <lazly> bb
[09:30] <bernier> Hi, My USB FLASH is not detected , how do I know it's label and mount it?
[09:30] <ikonia_> bernie check the syslog
[09:30] <noldrys_> hey gys, can some help me, i need an tool to run keyboard commands by a script
[09:30] <vulcanius> bernier, you can "dmesg | grep scsi" in most cases
[09:30] <anonylulz> i downloaded the .deb from wine-doors.org
[09:31] <ikonia_> anonylulz: then I suggest you didn't do it
[09:31] <ikonia_> oops
[09:31] <Pelo> bernier, open a terminal and type  lsusb , see if it is listed
[09:31] <ikonia_> anonylulz: I suggest you dont use it
[09:31] <anonylulz> why

[09:31] <bernier> I believe this is it

[09:32] <Pelo> Toran,  care to sum it up for us
[09:33] <ikonia_> toran you disk is on the way out
[09:33] <Pelo> bernier,  the  FS is not important at this point,  what is the devtree of the device
[09:33] <Toran> ikonia_: yeah, except it's a month old and it's been doing this since I bought it
[09:33] <Toran> It's not off-brand, either
[09:33] <bernier> /dev/sdb
[09:33] <ikonia_> Toran: your disk is faulty

[09:34] <Pelo> anonylulz, cd Desktop and then what lastnode said
[09:34] <bernier> Pelo now a new problem , I can't delete what's on it :P how do I get the permission?
[09:34] <murkyMurk> anonylulz: sudo dpkg --install /home/<you>/Desktop/<package.deb>
[09:35] <lastnode> anonylulz: please note what ikonia_ said, i came in here halfway.
[09:35] <anonylulz> hm
[09:35] <Pelo> bernier,   sudo chmod 777  /mount/point
[09:35] <murkyMurk> anonylulz: yes, note previous warnings
[09:35] <lastnode> anonylulz: installing a package with unmet dependencies wont let you run the package.
[09:36] <murkyMurk> anonylulz: what lastnode said
[09:36] <bernier> Pelo , done, but can't delete yet
[09:36] <anonylulz> hm
[09:36] <NeoGeo64> is the new ubuntu available yet
[09:36] <jm_> Who are using tribe 5?
[09:36] <NeoGeo64> has it been leaked
[09:36] <Pelo> bernier,  right click the icon and check the owner
[09:36] <anonylulz> so if i install it i won't be able to run it?
[09:36] <rsk> lol... leaked
[09:36] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: what are you talking about
[09:36] <rsk> :D
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> i am looking for the new version fo ubuntu
[09:37] <lastnode> anonylulz: most probably not.
[09:37] <ikonia_> jm_: most people in #ubuntu+1 are

[09:37] <lastnode> NeoGeo64: ubuntu feisty fawn? (7.04)
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> oh
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> no the next one
[09:37] <lastnode> oh sorry :) yes, what rsk and Pelo said
[09:37] <bernier> Pelo, Owner: root
[09:37] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: if you're unable to read a date of a website, your probably not in a position to test the pre-release dev builds
[09:37] <NeoGeo64> will desktop-effects work this time.
[09:37] <lastnode> Gutsy will be out on the 18th of October. If you want to try betas, there are several 'tribes' out these days. try #ubuntu+1 for more info
[09:38] <bernier> Pelo, I mounted it in /mnt/USB just to let you know
[09:38] <Pelo> bernier, try   sudo chows username:username /mnt/USB
[09:38] <lastnode> NeoGeo64: that's the word on the street. better ask in #ubuntu+1 though ;-)
[09:38] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: depends, and gusty support is in ubuntu+1
[09:38] <twelve_gaugeRage> NeoGeo64>try reading the forums on info about gutsy and its features
[09:38] <rsk> NeoGeo64: if your hardware supports it
[09:38] <NeoGeo64> I remember desktop-effects in 7.04 would work but all the window buttons were gone
[09:38] <magnetron> lastnode, NeoGeo64: the tribe releases are not even beta stage, they are alpha
[09:38] <NeoGeo64> and you couldnt move windows around
[09:38] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: do you use nvida cards ?
[09:38] <bernier> Pelo: chows , command not found
[09:38] <lastnode> NeoGeo64: what magnetron said. i stand corrected.
[09:38] <murkyMurk> anyone have experience of MCP55 sata controller bug in feisty fawn?
[09:38] <Pelo> NeoGeo64,  that was just a question of decorator
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> ikonia_: fx5200 w/ 256mb ram
[09:39] <Pelo> bernier, try   sudo chown username:username /mnt/USB  sorry
[09:39] <magnetron> NeoGeo64: that issue was fixable
[09:39] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: that was a bug easy fixable
[09:39] <ikonia_> magnetron: apologies, you where ahead of me
[09:39] <bernier> chown: changing ownership of `/mnt/USB': Operation not permitted
[09:39] <NeoGeo64> oh i was told a few months ago in here to "deal with it, its beta"
[09:39] <bernier> pelo
[09:39] <monkeyBox> Ok, so all I'm sayin' is, why should NetworkManager completely overwrite the resolv.conf file? wouldn't the _ideal_ be to append the dns servers to the existing ones?
[09:40] <Pelo> bernier, I'm not overly familiar with this command,  did you type sudo first ?
[09:40] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: no, as you'd get time outs waiting for the others to fail to respond
[09:40] <bernier> Pelo, yes
[09:40] <runemaste644> ok the people at #xorg arent very helpful
[09:40] <NeoGeo64> runemaste644: tell me about it..
[09:40] <Pelo> bernier, try with the /dev/sdb1  addy instead of the mount point
[09:40] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  The first DNS servers should still respond, if they're public DNS servers (ie, opendns)
[09:40] <bernier> Pelo, I dunno why ,I cannot even do "su" the password won't work
[09:40] <ikonia_> runemaste644: they are fine with me
[09:40] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: its not sequential
[09:41] <murkyMurk> and me...xorg readme is great
[09:41] <runemaste644> my login screen res is messed up
[09:41] <NeoGeo64> i came in there asking a question and no one helped me.
[09:41] <ikonia_> murkyMurk: I suspect you have hit the nail there
[09:41] <bernier> pelo, chown: cannot access `/dev/sdb1': No such file or directory
[09:41] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: its perhaps how you ask questions.
[09:41] <Phlogi> where is the wpa_supplicant config file? I'm trying to connect to a wpa2 network
[09:41] <Pelo> bernier, caplocks ?   in anycase we know your password works you  successfully mounted
[09:41] <ikonia_> NeoGeo64: for future reference
[09:41] <monkeyBox> ikonia_: regardless,   I don't have ALL traffic routed through my vpn,  so existing DNS servers still work
[09:41] <fiXXXerMet> My sshd_config file has TCPKeepAlive yes so I don't know why ssh is timing out when I sit idlely?
[09:41] <Pelo> bernier, are you sure that this is a vfat drive and not ntfs ?
[09:41] <monkeyBox> I'm only routing a specific IP range
[09:41] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: how do you have selected traffic through your vpn ? a vpn is normally all or nothing
[09:41] <runemaste644> can anyone in here help me?
[09:42] <wabid> im not getting any kind of warning when my battery is low
[09:42] <bernier> Pelo, yea i'm sure , and my password works for sudo but not su
[09:42] <wabid> how can i enable that message
[09:42] <ikonia_> fiXXXerMet: dodging net connection or a network device hardware config
[09:42] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  not with linux:  you simply use iptables to route your traffic as you see fit through ppp0
[09:42] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  even firestarter has support for that
[09:42] <ompaul> !sudo | bernier
[09:42] <ubotu> bernier: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:42] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: ask and we'll see
[09:42] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: ok - so thats not a vpn
[09:42] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:   how so?
[09:42] <runemaste644> I need to fix my login screen resolution
[09:42] <anonylulz> how do i go into sudo in the terminal so i won't have to type sudo all the time
[09:42] <runemaste644> it is wrong
[09:42] <monkeyBox> I'm routing part of my traffic _through_ the VPN?
[09:42] <Phlogi> the network manager hangs when I try to connect to a wpa2 network, what shall I do?
[09:42] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: because your machine is still on your origional network
[09:42] <Pelo> bernier, I'm out of ideas , right click , check hte permissions again ,  see what access your user has
[09:43] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:    umm.. it's on  _both_
[09:43] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: that'll be a vga boot parameter
[09:43] <monkeyBox> so, yes, it _is_ a VPN
[09:43] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: and thats the point
[09:43] <runemaste644> it should be 1680x1050@55Hz
[09:43] <monkeyBox> I route selected traffic _through_ the VPN
[09:43] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: however I'll not debate this with you and take the channel off topic
[09:43] <runemaste644> _test
[09:43] <runemaste644> _test_
[09:43] <Pelo> runemaste644, are you trying to get banned again ?
[09:44] <nextone> am getting this error when i type this in the terminal "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38484/plain/ |
[09:44] <monkeyBox> ugh, this isn't off topic, it's about NetworkManager
[09:44] <runemaste644> its the underline thing
[09:44] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: no, but mean debating network vpn "standards" is
[09:44] <disposition> would anyone know why when i mount an ntfs drive (after adding it to fstab) that it doesn't appear on my desktop like it used to?
[09:44] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: so set that as the only resolution in the xorg.conf and that's what you'll see
[09:44] <runemaste644> where?
[09:45] <monkeyBox> ikonia_: still relevant to the conversation,  and what I'm saying has nothing to do w/ standards.  You just think the way microsoft does it is the standard, apparently...
[09:45] <runemaste644> thats the problem
[09:45] <ubuB0nk3rs> hi people, quick question.. has anyone in here experimented with BlueLink?
[09:45] <bernier> Pelo , ok thank you
[09:45] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: I don't think the way "microsoft" does, hence why I'm not debating it with you
[09:45] <genii> runemaste644: Maybe look here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2361367#post2361367 and set your virtual resolution to something different thats bearable
[09:45] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: Section Screen, subsection Display
[09:46] <bernier> pelo, how do I delete a file in console?
[09:46] <rathel> How would one remove X and Gnome?
[09:46] <ikonia_> rathel: I advice you don't
[09:46] <Jaymac> I've accidentally made my filesystem read only (I guess from screwing around with /etc/fstab)
[09:46] <Pelo> bernier,   sudo rm filename
[09:46] <ikonia_> rathel: but you'd remove it fro the package panager
[09:46] <Jaymac> so it won't let me undo my changes - anything i can do?
[09:46] <wabid> how can i change the % at which my battery is considered critically low?
[09:46] <ikonia_> Jaymac: boot from the live cd - mount it read-write and fix it
[09:46] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  well, apparently you had no idea that you could route selected traffic through a VPN,  so I guess you're not the right person to talk to about this anyways
[09:46] <Jaymac> ok thanks.. will do
[09:46] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: thats not VPN - thats routing
[09:46] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: Depth 16, Modes "1600x800" or whatever you wanted
[09:47] <Pelo> Jaymac, boot the live cd, and edit your fstab from there
[09:47] <runemaste644> 1680x1050
[09:47] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  it's routing  _through_ a vpn!
[09:47] <rathel> ikonia_, Well I've installed the live cd on a computer, I've been using through ssh and I was hopeing I could save some space by removing those.
[09:47] <ikonia_> yes, I see what your getting at
[09:47] <monkeyBox> The vpn is setup via an interface
[09:47] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: make the Modes line read as Modes "1680x1050"
[09:47] <bernier> Pelo, I logged as root using "su" and could delete the file via console
[09:47] <nextone>  pici:i get this error "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38484/plain/" when i type "dpkg --configure -a" what i do.?
[09:47] <ikonia_> rathel: I don't believe its worth the effort
[09:48] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: your monitor does support that resol right?
[09:48] <runemaste644> yed
[09:48] <runemaste644> it also says in that section
[09:48] <Pelo> bernier, congrats
[09:48] <runemaste644> virtual 1920 1200
[09:48] <bernier> Pelo, but I still can't add nothing to it :P
[09:48] <rathel> ikonia_, Okay than, I'll just wait until gutsy is released and reinstall with the alternate cd than.
[09:48] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  So, you're saying that, even though I'm still connecting to my office's network via a pptp tunnel,  that just because I only have certain traffic going through that tunnel means it's not a VPN?   I'm sorry, that just doesn't make sense to me.
[09:49] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: if you delete every other display subsection and every other mode then xorg will default to your 1680 one
[09:49] <Pelo> bernier, what does  it say for your user access in rightclick /properties/permission ?
[09:49] <runemaste644> 1680x1050 is in modes
[09:49] <Pelo> GNine, what did you do ?
[09:49] <bernier> Pelo: you are not the owner so you can't change the permission
[09:49] <nextone> any1 know what this is "http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38484/plain/"
[09:50] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: no no, your right, I missunderstood what you where diong. I thought you had a desktop setting up a vpn tunnel to a remote network
[09:50] <ikonia_> I didn't realise you where setting up a router
[09:50] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: then makes sure it's the only option there...delete any 800x600 or 1024x768 etc and xorg will have to use that one
[09:50] <GNine> situation:  after removing a few program packages ... i ended up killing my user session. now i log in and ... i just get a blank ubuntu coffee colored desktop
[09:50] <Pelo> bernier, alt+f2 ,  gksu nautilus ,  browse to /media/   find the USB folder  right click,  and have fun
[09:50] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: and I suspect, thats what network manager things your doing, hence it changing resolv.conf
[09:50] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:   umm, I'm not setting up a router :-p    I still don't think you get what I'm saying
[09:51] <Pelo> GNine, do you still havwe access to your /home folder witth your very own data in it ?
[09:51] <CoCaInE> guys i got modem<- Router on ubuntu <- 3 pc       i want these 3 pcs work with "outside" IP i got, but i dont know how to configure it
[09:51] <runemaste644> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38485/    <---thats my xorg.conf
[09:51] <GNine> yes
[09:51] <genii> runemaste644: So change the "virtual 1920 1200"    to whatever you want gdm to use, if 1680x1050 then put "virtual 1680 1050"
[09:51] <bernier> Pelo: thank you
[09:51] <Jaymac> sorry to be an idiot, but how do I mount my installation from a live cd?
[09:51] <ikonia_> CoCaInE: you want network masqurading through iptables
[09:51] <Pelo> CoCaInE, try asking in #networking maybe
[09:51] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:   let's say,  my local net is 192.168.0.*  and the servers I need to access are XXX.XXX.XXX.0/32
[09:51] <runemaste644> if it messes up,
[09:52] <runemaste644> nvm
[09:52] <monkeyBox> ikonia_:  I simply setup iptables so that all requests locally to XXX.XXX.XXX.0/32 go through ppp0 instead of eth0
[09:52] <CoCaInE> ikonia_ yes, but i have no idea how to do it
[09:52] <Pelo> Jaymac,  it should get automounted,   so just browse your way to the correct file and edit it ,   the hdd should get mounted to your desktop
[09:52] <Jaymac> yeah... i found it, but it won't let me save...
[09:52] <ikonia_> CoCaInE: there are guides on help.ubuntu.com
[09:52] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using terminal?
[09:52] <alcoholic> !pastebin
[09:52] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:52] <runemaste644> i saved it
[09:52] <monkeyBox> ppp0 being my VPN connection
[09:52] <Jaymac> You do not have the permissions to save...
[09:52] <runemaste644> Here i go!
[09:52] <Pelo> Jaymac, open it with sudo
[09:53] <naxa> hi
[09:53] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using terminal?
[09:53] <naxa> how can I set auto-login in kubuntu?
[09:53] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: lol...you're using 640x480 resolution
[09:53] <anonylulz> how do i rename a file in the terminal
[09:53] <ikonia_> anonylulz: mv
[09:53] <Pelo> naxa, you should ask in #kubuntu ,they know where the dialog boxes are
[09:53] <danny>  /msg nickserv link hermanthegerman danny
[09:54] <anonylulz> thx
[09:54] <naxa> Pelo: oh so this is specific! Thanks!
[09:54] <nextone> zeus_:click on system then click on administration then click on login window
[09:54] <monkeyBox> ikonia_: see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/37239    it appears others are having the same problem as me.  If usepeerdns is uncheked, it should not wipe out resolv.conf
[09:54] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using TERMINAL?
[09:54] <ikonia_> monkeyBox: now that I see what your doing I agree
[09:54] <Jaymac> ok managed to save it, rebooting and crossing fingers :)
[09:54] <gurkburk> I have realised that I got a pretty annoying problem, and im not exactly sure how to fix it wither. My discs keep switching device-tag's, its been messing with me trying to setup mounting properly and ive just realised that this is the problem..
[09:55] <GNine> i remember uninstalling a package called gnome-session or something... that was linked to some other packages
[09:55] <gurkburk> for example. disk 1 can be SDB and I reboot, and its suddenly SDC...
[09:55] <Pelo> GNine,  you kniow it helps when you adress the person you are atlking to ,  if you still have your data and stuff in your /home flder  you just deleted the file that contains your settings for which ever prog you deleted, just redo your own theme and stuff and you'll be fine, your data is safe
[09:56] <gurkburk> im guessing its because im not just running simple ide-disks.. I got 1 scsi (external card) and 3 sata. Still damn annoying though, that they dont "stay put" :-p
[09:56] <Pelo> GNine, if you want to make sure you have all the default install progs on your comp just type sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop  that will restore everything you need
[09:57] <GNine> Pelo, yes, i did that one.  however, thing is .. am not too fluent in command line.
[09:57] <Jaymac> ok i'm back in... i'll leave that file alone from now on.. thanks for the help :)
[09:57] <soc_> hi
[09:57] <soc_> i have a problem!
[09:57] <Pelo> GNine,  that's all you need to restore what you deleted that was needed, the rest is you restoreing your settings manualy, can'T be avoided I 'm afraid
[09:57] <soc_> i added gaim to my startup session
[09:57] <HardDrive> soc_: don't we all
[09:57] <soc_> but that doesn't work ...
[09:58] <riotkittie> modprobe [module]  and not getting errors should leave one safe to assume said module has been loaded, yes?
[09:58] <soc_> it sometimes takes maybe 5 minutes before it starts ...
[09:58] <murkyMurk> soc_: starts or logs on to msn?
[09:58] <Pelo> soc_, open all the progs you want open at startup,  close all others,   goto the session manager,   on the 3rd tab, click save session ,  close and restart
[09:58] <GNine> Pelo, any wiki's you might throw my way about that ?
[09:58] <Pelo> GNine, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[09:59] <Pelo> GNine,  by restoring your settings I just mean put back your own theme and background and other stuff like that
[10:00] <GNine> Pelo, how do i call synaptic from terminal
[10:00] <D4N`> dunno
[10:00] <Pelo> GNine, gksu synaptic
[10:00] <GNine> :)
[10:00] <Pelo> GNine,  kind of pointless if you have gui just use the menu
[10:00] <soc_> pelo, ok i'll try that ,,,
[10:00] <pc40> during installing ssh .. it created RSA and DSA keys "Creating SSH2 RSA key; this may take some time ..." ..... HOw can I repeat this ?
[10:01] <GNine> i dont have access to my menu... like i said .. am on this gnome safe mode type deal
[10:01] <bill__> dpkg-reconfigure openssh-server   ?
[10:02] <zeus_> how to allow remote desktop connection using terminal?
[10:02] <murkyMurk> pc40: read the ubuntu ssh howto VERY CAREFULLY
[10:02] <Pelo> GNine, oh, that 's not what yousaid originaly, I just thought you lost your settings,  don'T know what you'll need to do then I've never seen gui in safe mode
[10:02] <Pelo> later folks
[10:02] <gnutron> zeus - you might try ssh and x11 forwarding via terminal.
[10:03] <pc40> murkyMurk: thanks
[10:03] <murkyMurk> zeus_: ? do you mean both you at the terminal and the other and independently remote from a 3rd box running krdc?
[10:03] <riotkittie> sudo reboot
[10:03] <riotkittie> oops
[10:03] <runemaste644> it didnt work
[10:03] <runemaste644> it did nothing
[10:03] <aantn> !getdeb
[10:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about getdeb - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[10:03] <ogsmokie> hello, i have a poblem with my mouse, even when i start my pc my mouse is not realy found all buttons (the buttons over and under the mousewheel mapped to the mousewheel, the horn button have not an event , but sometimes i have an event for all my buttons, i have the logitech Mx 1000
[10:03] <aantn> is there a getdeb source repo?
[10:04] <lImItaO> yes
[10:04] <zeus_> no I want to change System/Administration setting from the terminal because I don't have access to GUI
[10:04] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: your xorg looked pretty messed up...use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to take you back to a fresh one
[10:04] <aantn> lImItaO: what is it?
[10:04] <lImItaO> let me see
[10:04] <lImItaO> one moment
[10:04] <aantn> lImItaO: thanks
[10:04] <aantn> I'm on ppc so I can't just use the regular packages
[10:04] <runemaste644> ill need to add aargblx visuals again
[10:05] <so1> daaamn
[10:05] <runemaste644> or whatever
[10:05] <so1> that can't be true ...
[10:05] <runemaste644> what will the res default to?
[10:05] <zeus_> gnutron: I want to enable remote dekstop log in but I can't do it because I don't have graphic  enviroment
[10:05] <Dimitar> when i start my ubuntu panels are frozed
[10:05] <so1> i see gaim in gnome-settings-monitor for about 4 minutes without doing anything ...
[10:05] <murkyMurk> zeus_: ahh....if you haven't got access to the GUI, what desktop are you going to log in to?
[10:05] <lImItaO> aantn: deb http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/
[10:05] <Esteth> how do i reinstate the default window manager when compiz is active?
[10:06] <so1> and it runs twice btw ...
[10:06] <zeus_> murkyMurk: a remote one
[10:06] <lImItaO> aantn: then sudo aptitude update update
[10:06] <richiefrich> hi  cirkit
[10:06] <lImItaO> ;)
[10:06] <aantn> lImItaO: you mean deb-src http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/ ?
[10:06] <cirkit> Good evening ladies and gentlemen, and thank you for allowing me to spend another wonderful afternoon with you all here in #ubuntu
[10:06] <murkyMurk> zeus_: you need a GUI desktop running on the remote box before anyone can log on to that 'desktop'
[10:06] <riotkittie> is there no way to enable wlan card support in the kernel outside of compiling one? oh woe, oh woe.
[10:06] <bruenig> !ot | cirkit
[10:06] <ubotu> cirkit: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:06] <lImItaO> just add this line to your source list: deb http://ubuntu.org.ua/ getdeb/
[10:07] <cirkit> The last time I was in this channel some Ubuntu user informed me that if you have the +v status on your nick, then you are somehow the owner, is this true?
[10:07] <soho> is it possible to have nautilus audio preview with wma-files?
[10:07] <soho> is it possible to have nautilus audio preview with wma-files?
[10:07] <zeus_> murkyMurk: yes, the pc is at another place and I only have ssh access to it. and I want to enable remote desktop login with ssh
[10:07] <albreche> hi , when making an uml diagram which ressource contains the Entity stereotype  ?
[10:07] <rathel> How do you make something startup in another desktop, like I want evolution to start up on Desktop #6.
[10:07] <lastnode> cirkit: no. +o means operator +v means voiced. for more info on IRC, you can come to #ubuntu-offtopic, since that is not a ubuntu specific support question.
[10:08] <aantn> lImItaO: I'm on ppc and I can't use their binary packages
[10:08] <Red-Sox> Hello, I have Gnome installed and I
[10:08] <murkyMurk> zeus_: ahhh.....is the remote desktop a KDE or Gnome?
[10:08] <zeus_> murkyMurk: gnome
[10:08] <Red-Sox> Hello, I have Gnome installed and I'd like to install KDE and have my gnome apps in gnome and my kde apps in kde
[10:08] <Red-Sox> Not in both
[10:08] <runemaste644> if i dpkg-reconfigure x what will the resolution default to?
[10:08] <cirkit> lastnode, thank you for your input.
[10:08] <ikonia_> runemaste644: what ever you set it to
[10:08] <lastnode> no probs
[10:09] <lastnode> runemaste644: you will get a list of choices, mostly likely.
[10:09] <murkyMurk> zeus_: and are you using vnc or xvnc or what as the remote desktop view/server
[10:09] <WaltzingAlong> Red-Sox: by which you really just mean showing up on the menu rigth?
[10:09] <runemaste644> wait
[10:09] <runemaste644> ive done it before
[10:09] <Red-Sox> WaltzingAlong: Exactly
[10:09] <gnutron> zeus- enable x11 forwarding in the file  /etc/ssh/ssh_config, then read up on ssh and 'startx'
[10:09] <runemaste644> and thats what messed it up
[10:10] <zeus_> murkyMurk: I tried Xvnc but it didn't work. so I just want to enalbe remote desktop login from administration manu which I don't have access cus I am in terminal
[10:10] <ikonia_> runemaste644: what exactly is the problem
[10:10] <WaltzingAlong> Red-Sox: i do not know of a way to do that other than manually altering the menu entries to match what you want
[10:10] <richiefrich> zeus_: you can just do ssh -Y
[10:11] <soc> wth?
[10:11] <Red-Sox> WaltzingAlong: okay
[10:11] <murkyMurk> zeus_: okays....KDE's krdc app is simplest...just apt-get it on to the remote box and then edit ~./kde/share/config/krfbrc
[10:11] <soc> it just took 3 minutes idling to start gaim
[10:11] <soc> from auto start
[10:11] <murkyMurk> zeus_: it doesn't require installling all of kde...just a few libs
[10:11] <WaltzingAlong> zeus_: nomachine's nx or freenx
[10:11] <runemaste644> my login screen resolution is messed up
[10:12] <ikonia_> runemaste644: are you using an nvidia dor ati graphics card
[10:12] <runemaste644> nvidia
[10:12] <ikonia_> runemaste644: what model ?
[10:12] <runemaste644> Geforce Go 7300
[10:12] <ikonia_> runemaste644: and your running Ubuntu Fesity ?
[10:12] <murkyMurk> zeus_: whoops on the remote box put krfb as well as krdc
[10:12] <CHIMAERA> um anybody here mind assistin a noob with gfx install
[10:12] <runemaste644> Yes
[10:13] <ikonia_> runemaste644: have you install the nvidia-glx package ?
[10:13] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: just ask the question
[10:13] <WaltzingAlong> zeus_: if you want to access the running X display, then you may want x11vnc
[10:13] <runemaste644> let me check
[10:13] <yezior> hi there !
[10:13] <yezior> need a fast answer
[10:13] <ikonia_> then ask the question
[10:13] <CHIMAERA> i got a emachine m5312.... with a ati 320M
[10:13] <CHIMAERA> envy dont work with it..
[10:13] <murkyMurk> yezior: no..fast enough?
[10:13] <yezior> i have a laptop - HP Pavilion dv600
[10:13] <dsdfgs> c.elsitio.com 6667
[10:13] <CHIMAERA> and i need direct 3d
[10:13] <runemaste644> nvidia-glx is installed
[10:14] <yezior> dv6000
[10:14] <neverblue> #1: Envy
[10:14] <yezior> and i have problems with my sound
[10:14] <neverblue> your starting off on the wrong foot, thats for sure
[10:14] <ikonia_> runemaste644: ok - so you need to do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" then select the "nvidia" driver and the screen resolution you want and then restart
[10:14] <zeus_> murkyMurk: then how to logint? can I login using vncviewer?
[10:14] <yezior> it's like a fatboy slim concert
[10:14] <boyam1> !enter | yezior
[10:14] <ubotu> yezior: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:15] <yezior> ok, will do
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> ive read all i could...... but from what ive seen... this is a very tricky vid card
[10:15] <runemaste644> dpkg-reconfiguring xserver-xorg is what got me into this mess in the first place!!!!!
[10:15] <murkyMurk> zeus_: once you have correctly setup the krfbrc file on the remote box then use krdc from your local box with the IP of the remote and you're in
[10:15] <ikonia_> runemaste644: did you read the rest of what I said ?
[10:15] <runemaste644> yes
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> im running ubuntu ultimate
[10:15] <cirkit> richiefrich, pardon me ... do you know if it is possible to use the bourne again shell aka BASH in Ubuntu? It doesn't appear to have any kind of Terminal.
[10:15] <ikonia_> runemaste644: then do it
[10:15] <bruenig> CHIMAERA, this is #ubuntu
[10:15] <soc> it takes minutes to start gaim with auto startup
[10:15] <runemaste644> do i only have to select those things
[10:15] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: ubuntu ultimate is not an ubuntu product. Its not supported here
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> ...... its all based on the same thing is it not
[10:15] <soc> that's worse than starting it every time manually
[10:15] <CHIMAERA> ohz
[10:16] <neverblue> cirkit, alt-F2 gnome-terminal
[10:16] <runemaste644> and it wont ask me about anything else?
[10:16] <richiefrich> cirkit: well y ou can use whatever shell you want
[10:16] <ikonia_> runemaste644: answer the questions asked, but make sure you select the "nvidia" driver
[10:16] <richiefrich> cirkit: if you have it installed
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> where would i go then
[10:16] <nextone> how do i know if i am remote connect to my computer?
[10:16] <lastnode> cirkit: of course there is.
[10:16] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: read their website
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> it auto maticaly connected to this
[10:16] <runemaste644> i have the nvidia driver selected
[10:16] <richiefrich> cirkit: chsh
[10:16] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA:thats part of the problem, they make a product and don't support it
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> this was the default server and channel..
[10:16] <bruenig> CHIMAERA, I doubt they have much support
[10:16] <runemaste644> already
[10:16] <CHIMAERA> hmmmmz
[10:16] <bruenig> which is fine if you can deal with it
[10:16] <ikonia_> runemaste644: run throught he configuration options
[10:17] <CHIMAERA> well i shall have to dig round some more i guess...
[10:17] <richiefrich> cirkit: you must have gnome-terminal
[10:17] <bruenig> I had dreamlinux installed for a while and all their support was in brazilian, so if you can deal without support, feel free
[10:17] <richiefrich> cirkit: unless you install kbuntu
[10:17] <cirkit> richiefrich, I have installed Ubuntu Linux. Although I cannot seem to find kcontrol.
[10:17] <Zeithawke> How was dream linux?
[10:17] <yezior> so here how it is: i'm using HP Pavilion dv6000. 1st of all - i have a huuuge problem with sound. It's like a FatBoySlim... Looped :/ But hear me now... I have a USB wireless Logitech mouse, and when I move it constantly the sound goes just fine... What can be the problem ?
[10:17] <Zeithawke> :|
[10:18] <CHIMAERA> ive already got a bunch of things workin via the ubuntu forum...
[10:18] <naxa> how can I start photoshop CS2 and CorelDraw 13 on Linux? :D (I mean, with wine;)
[10:18] <CHIMAERA> im sure there is a way to look thro that and figure it out
[10:18] <richiefrich> cirkit: then you have gnome
[10:18] <naxa> (perhaps VMware? I don't know it! If its better pls help)
[10:18] <bruenig> CHIMAERA, why would you install it to begin with
[10:18] <richiefrich> cirkit: no kcontrol there
[10:18] <rathel> How do you make something startup in another desktop, like I want evolution to start up on Desktop #6.
[10:18] <murkyMurk> naxa: apparently the best way is just to use gimp instead
[10:19] <CHIMAERA> cuz with my usage of it on my other rig... it was awsome
[10:19] <naxa> No, no, Photoshop is a must and CorelDRAW 13 is not Inkspace, either.
[10:19] <naxa> I like those but now we want to work, we don't have time to learn anything else.
[10:19] <charly17201> old dos and windows person here. still learning linux.... i'm used to having to defrag the hard drive in win and dos. is that necessary in ubuntu/linux?
[10:19] <ikonia_> CHIMAERA: why are you telling us this, this is a support channel for the ubuntu products
[10:19] <ikonia_> charly17201: not really
[10:19] <murkyMurk> charly17201: not really no
[10:19] <bruenig> ubuntu ultimate is on the same line as ubuntu christian edition both being horrific jokes
[10:20] <CHIMAERA> ......
[10:20] <aantn> GO UBUNTU SE! :-D

[10:20] <runemaste644> i would like to fix my login screen by editing xorg.conf in GEDIT
[10:20] <Zeithawke> Er.. has anyone upgraded their RAM?
[10:20] <ikonia_> runemaste644: I've told you how to fix this problem
[10:21] <murkyMurk> naxa: dunno if wine will run photoshop/corel. maybe cedega might...check out their webby for  alist of apps that work
[10:21] <richiefrich> runemaste644: xorg.conf has  nothing to do with your login screen
[10:21] <ikonia_> runemaste644: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and I've told you the options you need to make sure you select
[10:21] <Some_ux> anybody know of a good VPN server for linux, which has a good Vista/XP client ?
[10:21] <ikonia_> Some_ux: openvpn
[10:21] <aantn> sorry :(
[10:21] <runemaste644> when i reconfigured it the first time i selected the right resolution but it still wasnt right
[10:21] <naxa> thamls
[10:21] <naxa> thanks

[10:31] <reep> runemaste644: If you're trying to set up Xorg for your monitor you generally just need to figure out the horizontal and vertical refresh rates
[10:32] <GNine> check your sources.. october 18th is the final official certified gutsy to meet you release
[10:32] <murkyMurk> runemaste644: start the fantastic nvidia settings manger GUI for you to explore your monitor/video card
