[02:46] <sammyF> mroc: if you have it on one of your drive
[02:46] <mib_mkjis0wo> it gave me installation site rhorse
[02:46] <blahblahx> dli: that any help?
[02:46] <dli> blahblahx, sudo xauth -f /var/lib/gdm/ :0.Xauth nlist| xauth -f ~/.Xauthority nmerge -
[02:46] <blak> Mowk: goto administration and then partion editor
[02:46] <blak> Mowk: that will be gparted
[02:47] <RHorse> mib_mkjis0wo, I am still not sure what the problem is? Does it boot off of the disk in the cdrom?
[02:47] <Mowk> yes i have no idea how to use it:O
[02:47] <mib_mkjis0wo> ya rhorse
[02:47] <blak> Mowk: you want to merge the ntfs partition with the blank one, correct?
[02:47] <mroc> sammyF: i'll look into it.  windows still exists, i could see it using the recovery console on a windows disk.  i was just concerned about running fixmbr if there was a mechanical problem with the disk causing these errors.
[02:47] <alvarus> i want to set NVIDIA X server settings
[02:47] <dli> blahblahx, it doesn't mean I know how you messed up
[02:47] <alvarus> hi
[02:47] <Mowk> it says unallocated 17.8 gigs
[02:48] <blak> mroc: i would run fixmbr
[02:48] <Mowk> and then my regular one
[02:48] <RHorse> mib_mkjis0wo, ok, then what drive is it trying to find a driver for? the hard drive?
[02:48] <dli> blahblahx, you still have to troubleshort for that
[02:48] <mib_mkjis0wo> i dunno rhorse
[02:48] <MetalHeadDead> how do install files from a .bin (google earth)?
[02:48] <blak> Mowk: ok what do you want to do with the unallocated 17.8 (free space)
[02:48] <sammyF> mroc: yep. I understand that. Thus supergrub. it doesn't install anything. It just bypasses your disks bootloaders and so on
[02:48] <blahblahx> dli: uh when i did what you asked i got: xauth (argv):1: unknown command ":0.Xauth"
[02:48] <Mowk> merge it with my vista partition
[02:48] <PoisonArrow> can you partition a usb stick?
[02:48] <sammyF> mroc: one of the must-have boot cds ;)
[02:48] <mroc> blak: what's the word on fixmbr if there's a possible mechanical issue with bad blocks on the drive?  because there are some rather dire warnings against such things and i don't understand hardware on a low enough level to know what the danger really is
[02:48] <blahblahx> dli: and then "xauth: (argv):1: unable to read any entries from file "(stdin)
[02:49] <joseph> hi people
[02:49] <blak> Mowk: right click on the vista partition then you should get some options.. hopefully you see merge or resize?
[02:49] <RHorse> mib_mkjis0wo, well, you need to write down exactly what the error message says. Ubuntu is usu. good in provinding info to solve a problem. ( unlike some other os's).
[02:49] <Chubbz> @PoisonArrow yeah, ive done it in gparted before
[02:49] <MetalHeadDead> i just d/l google earth it's a .bin file and when i open it it gives me an error
[02:49] <dli> blahblahx, looks like you typed the command line
[02:49] <blahblahx> dli: what?
[02:49] <blahblahx> dli: sorry i dont quite follow you
[02:49] <dli> blahblahx, you typed it wrong?
[02:49] <blak> mroc: i personally wouldn't worry about it... but i think supergrub is a good idea and then you don't have to worry at all.. i would do that if you really are wanting to be totally safe
[02:49] <blahblahx> oh maybe
[02:49] <PoisonArrow> Chubbz: ok so it is possible? the livecd or while on ubuntu? also, you think fdisk would work?
[02:49] <Mowk> i clicked resize blak... now im confuuzed haha
[02:49] <joseph> do you speak spanish?
[02:50] <blahblahx> dli: the computer with the problem cant open any programs, so...
[02:50] <alvarus> how set the resolution in the NVIDIA X server Settings?
[02:50] <blahblahx> dli: ill try re-giving it to you
[02:50] <mroc> sammyF: thanks for the help, it's very much appreciated.  i'll probably try to find you again if i run into questions (if that's all right).
[02:50] <blak> Mowk: you should be able to take up all the free space now with that... will it let you make the partition the entire size of the disk now?
[02:50] <dli> blahblahx, sudo xauth -f /var/lib/gdm/:0.Xauth nlist| xauth -f ~/.Xauthority nmerge -
[02:50] <tritium> joseph: not in this channel.  /join #ubuntu-es for spanish
[02:50] <icedwater> Hello! I'm having some trouble adjusting the brightness on my monitor.
[02:50] <mroc> blak:  thanks for your input as well.  also appreciated
[02:50] <icedwater> It doesn't seem to be supported.
[02:50] <blak> mroc: no problem you are very welcome i hope it helped
[02:51] <sammyF> mroc: well . I'm not a regular here ;) I only come whenever I have a uestion/problem .. and then I usually end up helping where I can
[02:51] <Mowk> blak i dont even know:O  is there a remote assistance tool maybe you could help me with?
[02:51] <alvarus> hi
[02:51] <blahblahx> dli: ahh that worked i got: xauth: creating new authority file myhome
[02:51] <sammyF> mroc: but you're welcome :)
[02:51] <mroc> sammyF: ah, i see.  i do the same thing.
[02:51] <blahblahx> dli: that worked
[02:51] <blak> Mowk: i have a good url for you.... give me a minute i will link you to it, it will really help you visualize this process
[02:51] <dli> blahblahx, as I said, you still have to troubleshoot how it messed up
[02:52] <Mowk> I really appreciate the help blak. thank you very much
[02:52] <blahblahx> dli: okay, what now?
[02:52] <blahblahx> dli: thanks though for getting that to work
[02:52] <sammyF> mroc: yep. astounding, but the system seems to work. So far I've always received quite usefull help, and I hopefully gave some
[02:52] <dli> blahblahx, I'm not sure, is this something related to changing hostname?
[02:52] <blak> Mowk: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/screenshots.php
[02:52] <blahblahx> dli: i think i messed it up by following an outdated guide
[02:52] <sammyF> anyway .. I'm off to play with this awesome gimp release :D
[02:53] <sammyF> nighty/noon/evening everybody :)
[02:53] <blak> Mowk: look at the rezie closer look image down the page a bit
[02:53] <blahblahx> dli: there was this guide for doing something that actually wasn't a problem
[02:53] <blahblahx> dli: so i messed up xauth by following it (it was for gutsy)
[02:53] <blak> Mowk: Make the "new size" = the "maximum size"
[02:53] <blak> Mowk: then you will apply and this will make it take the entire disk up with that one partition
[02:54] <dli> blahblahx, oh, you messed up with xauth, then, no worry, try to restart gdm, see whether it works from now on
[02:54] <blahblahx> dli: but i have to go now
[02:54] <blahblahx> dli: ok ill restart it and if it doesnt work, see you later :)
[02:54] <blahblahx> dli: bye
[02:54] <Mowk> blak one think im worried is it will tkae over my recovery partion too:O  cause my gateway has one
[02:55] <Mowk> blak i think the recovery may be a serperate drive though
[02:55] <blak> no it will not take it over as that will not be called unallocated space
[02:56] <Mowk> okay thanks\
[02:56] <blak> Mowk: if all you see is the unallocated space and the one partition then that recovery one will not be affected
[02:56] <nate_> Okay Here is my situation. I have Ubuntu Studio 8.04, but I have decided that all these extra programs are really not for me. What do i need to do to "downgrade" to Hardy Heron but keep the theme? are there repositories that i need to delete and if so what ones?
[02:57] <wartalker> how to let system auto load a module when reboot
[02:57] <tritium> wartalker: append the module name to /etc/modules
[02:57] <blak> Mowk: yes I would say it is on a partition that is not being shown or is on another drive... or doesn't really exist, worse case it would show the partition as something or definitely as "unknown disk area" or somethinglike that
[02:57] <dli> nate_, I think you can just remove applications you don't want, no point to downgrade
[02:57] <Mowk> blak it is expanding now and i think it will work. we will see though
[02:57] <wartalker> tritium:thanks
[02:58] <nate_> okay thanks :)
[02:58] <blak> Mowk: awesome, those screenshots on that link i gave you should be helpful as well for seeing all the different screens that can come up... i have to be going, but i think you have it right now! i wish you the best of luck and take care!
[02:58] <david> hello

[02:59] <Mowk> blak i think its done im going to boot up in windows now and its greatly apreciated:) im going to donate to ubuntu for your help thanks
[02:59] <oOarthurOo> Guest51413: Do you have a spare partition for XP to be installed to?
[02:59] <blak> Mowk: you didn't have ubuntu on this machine did you... because if you use maxium size.. you make the ntfs take up the whole disk.. ubuntu will no longer have anywhere to be.. just making sure?
[02:59] <Dreamglider> is it possible to mount ubuntu 8.04 and install it within ubuntu running of the harddisk ?
[03:00] <blak> Mowk: awesome, they will appreciate it! you are very welcome.
[03:00] <Guest51413> oOarthurOo, no i dont, i can create it easily though. my question regards installing grub after installation
[03:00] <chaddy> Dreamglider: you mean in a fakeroot?
[03:00] <Mowk> blak, no i jsut wanted to use the live cd to try it out untill i gain further knowladge and buy a external hardrive to run it off of:)
[03:00] <Dreamglider> i have no idea what a fakeroot is !
[03:00] <jdevel> can anyone explain to me really quick something with this chat...
[03:00] <blak> Mowk: excellent I hope it works for you, if you need further help i will private message you my e-mail

[03:04] <oOarthurOo> Anyway, Guest51413 my advice is don't reinstall XP and Ubuntu in the "proper order". Just go ahead an install Xp, then use your google from the XP partition and your install disc to figure it out

[03:05] <csilk> i just installed apache, php, mysql and for some reason the mysql extension isnt loaded by default, i thought this extension was always included by default?
[03:06] <redshift1972> anybody ?
[03:06] <gusx> is there a signal to redirect the standard stdout of a running procces ??
[03:07] <Gevaudan> csilk: there is a separate extension
[03:07] <liza0> hello
[03:07] <Gevaudan> csilk: did you install php5-mysql ? that is the extension
[03:07] <csilk> Gevaudan,  every other time I've done the amp installation that extension has always been loaded by default
[03:07] <redshift1972> im installing ut 2004 demo...it says do you want to install symbolic links to a directory in your path? what should i do?
[03:08] <csilk> Gevaudan,   libapache2-mod-php5
[03:08] <csilk> oh wait
[03:08] <csilk> i've never had to install the php5-mysql before
[03:08] <chaddy> redshift1972: what do you want to do?
[03:08] <Gevaudan> I'm not sure what amp is, but I just recently configured an apache/php/tomcat box from scratch and by installing that package it was loaded
[03:08] <csilk> I literally did this 2 weeks ago
[03:08] <redshift1972> install ut2004 demo i have the installer up  its asking me questions
[03:09] <redshift1972> i dont know how to answere them and if ubuntu will only want me to install  in particular areas
[03:09] <chaddy> redshift1972: symbolic links in your path are probably a good thing
[03:09] <chaddy> redshift1972: are you following a how to?
[03:09] <robbak> Could someone tell me where to go to set up a ppp connection in the new network manager?
[03:10] <Gevaudan> csilk: in any case, make sure it exists in /usr/lib/php5 ...in one of the subfolder should be mysql.so
[03:10] <csilk> Gevaudan,  ok i think i know what happened, the php package will look to see if mysql is installed, if yes it will install the php extention automatically, if not then it wont, i forgot to install mysql first, lesson learned, thanks for the help anyway
[03:10] <Gevaudan> sure
[03:10] <redshift1972> no im running the instraller from the  terminal and it has a gui installer thing im just wondering what directories to install  etc
[03:10] <bpat1434> how can I force the rest of my sata disks to mount at boot and stay mounted rather than doing this "on access" junk?
[03:11] <chaddy> redshift1972: don't take this as gospel, I'd run the installer under sudo and let it write where it wants
[03:11] <badfish> how do i view/kill open processes?
[03:11] <Gevaudan> bpat1434:  what file system, ntfs?
[03:11] <badfish> specificlaly firefox

[03:11] <redshift1972> how do you do that?
[03:11] <smil3y> redshift1972>  should show it already and just press enter
[03:12] <david> hello???
[03:12] <bpat1434> Gevaudan, I used gparted to format the disks, but they won't automount and stay mounted.
[03:12] <Gevaudan> bpat1434: i can't remember the exact syntax for ext3...but you need to edit /etc/fstab and add a line for the partition you want mounted
[03:12] <Ademan> anyone here lucky enough to get a Lenovo IdeaPad s10 care to describe their thoughts on it? especially the keyboard, and performance with ubuntu
[03:12] <bpat1434> I have that

[03:13] <bpat1434> Gevaudan, however the disk icons don't show up on the desktop until I try to access them initially, and then once I do access them there is a long dely
[03:13] <Gevaudan> bpat1434:  try /dev/sda1	/media/repository ext3 defaults 0 0   ....but replace /dev/sda1 with whatever partition you are trying to mount...then type sudo mount -a and see if it appears...make sure you create /media/repository or whatever you want to mount it to first

[03:19] <Joeseph> okay. So let's say I want to set up a web server.   What would you say the pre-requisites for being able to install and run ubuntu server edition for a simple web site?
[03:19] <tritium> damien: it's now compiz-fusion
[03:19] <genii> damien: beryl is now part of compiz-fusion
[03:19] <damien> ok

[03:21] <Ashkore> @Genii I did and I got an earlier problem.
[03:21] <danhs> Joeseph: I've never heard that before.  I'd read about lighttpd and apache and figure out which makes sense for you.

[03:22] <genii> Ashkore: You are on a PS3 or so?
[03:22] <Joeseph> danhs: What do I need is basically what I'm asking--- what kind of knowledge, hardware, etc.

[03:23] <CMD_L1N3> badfish: you asking me?
[03:23] <danhs> Joeseph: If I were you, I'd prolly read about apache and lighttpd, maybe play with webmin to get you up and running fast and you should be good to go pretty fast
[03:23] <badfish> no
[03:23] <badfish> but try this
[03:23] <CMD_L1N3> okay
[03:23] <badfish> sudo oowriter

[03:23] <badfish> and try printing that way
[03:23] <FloodBot2> badfish: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[03:26] <RHorse> Megalodon, best to google your distro and the keywork source.list
[03:26] <Guest72179> ok
[03:26] <jrib> !shockwave | Guest72179
[03:26] <tj83> TY for clarification jrib
[03:27] <Megalodon> RHorse: well thanks, but I would have preferred if someone could have suggested me  a source.lift generator for 8.04
[03:28] <chaddy> robbak: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=138
[03:28] <RHorse> Megalodon, sri, i didn't know such a thing existed. As a newbie< I always just cpy from the net.
[03:28] <robbak> chaddy: thanks.
[03:28] <Megalodon> RHorse:  well thats the point, I'm looking for the best source.list to copy from ;)
[03:28] <chaddy> robbak: all I did was google the keywords from your question and give you the top link
[03:29] <chaddy> robbak: if it's no use you'll find more links the same way
[03:30] <jrib> Megalodon: the best one is the one you get from System -> Administration -> Software Sources
[03:31] <Dittohead> Just got a Dell Mini9 and when I try to pair my phone to the computer, I put in the pass key and the desktop locks hard. I have the latest updates. I've searched but only found closed bugs that claim the issue is fixed and forum posts that say it isn't but with now clear fix.

[03:37] <danhs> Guest63463: it's rm
[03:37] <Guest63463> thanks guys :)
[03:37] <Dittohead> Guest43804, man rm for more info
[03:37] <danhs> Guest63463: be careful though, rm is really powerful.....
[03:37] <danhs> !rm
[03:37] <Mordocai_HW> the terminal is like... uber mode :P
[03:37] <jaxal> hi...i need help with the wifi connectivity
[03:37] <Guest63463> lol
[03:38] <genii> Mordocai_HW: Yes. Use with care
[03:38] <danhs> Guest63463: you might want to use rm -i for interactive mode to make sure you don't accidentally delete stuff.  or use ls in place of rm to list out everything you're going to delete
[03:38] <Guest63463> how do I delete a directory? I just converted my other HDD from ntfs to ext3 and need to remove this lost+found directory
[03:38] <tj83> jaxal, you'll have to give more information someone might know
[03:38] <RHorse> danhs, best to rename rm to smash, and make an alias 'rm
[03:38] <jaxal> i am seeing a WEP protected network and even with the password i am unable to connect to the internet...do you guys have any suggestions?
[03:38] <tj83> Guest63463, sudo rm -r directoryname
[03:38] <meyos> hello, ive been trying to get my wireless network to work on my laptop, i can see my network signal, i type in my network key, the sognal shows 100%, but the network doesnt connect. what can i do?
[03:38] <Guest63463> thank you
[03:39] <liza0> is ubuntu 64bit much faster than 32 bit ubuntu?
[03:39] <jamesish1> Guest63463: rm -rf directoryname isn't as safe as rm -r but can be less irritating.
[03:39] <afallenhope> if I have a full duplex soundcard (nvidia) how can I use jackd to work with it.. because it doesn't seem to want to work... and it always mess up
[03:39] <tritium> liza0: no
[03:39] <ilovefedora> anyone use cpanel?
[03:39] <danhs> RHorse: in my bash.alias file (or whatever it's named) rm is an alias for rm -i
[03:39] <Guest63463> It worked! Thanks guys :)
[03:39] <afallenhope> ilovefedora, I do..
[03:39] <georgy_28> Guest63463, : rm -R directory
[03:39] <ilovefedora> how do i add my domains?
[03:39] <losher> Guest63463: leave the lost+found directory alone
[03:39] <jamesish1> Liza0: not ona  32 bit processor.
[03:39] <jaxal> meyos seems to have the same problem as me
[03:39] <Guest63463> losher... too late >><
[03:39] <danhs> RHorse: for a while, I was hoping to make rm move stuff to trash, but it seems like it's a bit tricky and not worth the trouble
[03:39] <Guest63463> it's gone =P
[03:39] <liza0> i mean on a 64bit processor
[03:39]  * Mordocai_HW wonders why ilovefedora is in ubuntu channel.
[03:39] <jamesish1> He DID say lost+found, you're right. Oh dear, oh dear.
[03:40] <jamesish1> Ah well, too late now.
[03:40] <meyos> jexal:frustrating, huh?
[03:40] <tritium> liza0: still no
[03:40] <ilovefedora> lol
[03:40] <liza0> Mordocai_HW:may be is loking for a new love
[03:40] <RHorse> danhs, it's not really hard, but a small script might be better than typing all on one line in the .bashrc
[03:40] <jaxal> meyos: verrrrry!!
[03:40] <tj83> jaxal, meyos sure your using the correct encryption type? hex? 128 bit? WPA?
[03:40] <losher> Guest63463: probably doesn't matter: fsck will recreate it if needed (I think)
[03:40] <Guest63463> kk thanks losher
[03:40] <losher> Guest63463: it's a normal part of an ext3 filesystem
[03:40] <jamesish1> losher: that's right; it's just if anything was orphaned in there, then it's gorn forever instead of being recoverable.
[03:40] <Mordocai_HW> liza0: Yeah, possibly :P. I, myself, haven't settled on one distro.
[03:40] <danhs> RHorse: you don't know how to give sysctl a kick so it reloads sysctl.conf a second time do you?
[03:40] <Mordocai_HW> losher: He's gone...
[03:40] <jaxal> tj83: i am sure abt the encryption i am using its a WEP hex 128-bit
[03:40] <brock> can anybody tell me how to get a trash icon on my desktop
[03:41] <losher> jamesish1: true that...
[03:41] <Melwasul> hey, my resolution on my screen seems to be messed up. the bottom toolbar isnt even visible.. Can someone help me?
[03:41] <danhs> I'm having problems with bridge networking cause settings in sysctl.conf don't get loaded on boot
[03:41] <danhs> I need to run them in shell in order to take effect
[03:41] <danhs> I even put up a message on ubuntuforums.com http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=948076
[03:41] <danhs> :-p
[03:41] <mroc> brock: open gconf-editor and it's a check-box option under apps -> nautilus -> desktop i think
[03:41] <jamesish1> danhs: I was just reading this: http://www.linux.com/feature/125977
[03:41] <RHorse> danhs, sri, that's a new one to me!  I'm a recovering newbie 8 )
[03:42] <danhs> jamesish1: yea, I've heard of upstart too....it's a bit over my head on how to use upstart like that
[03:42] <naknomik> are there any more themes for gnome desktop I can download for ubuntu, besides the defaults that ship?
[03:42] <tj83> jaxal, i dont have any other suggestion.. other than to try changing your router to 64 bit and try that
[03:42] <jamesish1> danhs: upstart is what you're using in either case, it manages all the stuff on ubuntu.
[03:42] <keram> hello
[03:42] <jaxal> tj83: thanks!
[03:42] <mroc> naknomik: sure.....gnome-look.org has many options (as a place to start looking)
[03:42] <danhs> jamesish1: hmmmm oka
[03:43] <jamesish1> nakmonik: take a look at gnome-look.org
[03:43] <danhs> okay
[03:43] <Melwasul> can someone help me?
[03:43] <thebossut> hello all
[03:43] <keram> i'm trying to connect my ubuntu box to a newly installed debian router. the router doesnt have any dhcp features so the ubuntu box has to pick a static ip

[03:44] <Melwasul> hey, my resolution on my screen seems to be messed up. the bottom toolbar isnt even visible.. Can someone help me?
[03:44] <jamesish1> Melwasul: No.  Oh woe, woe is all.
[03:44] <keram> Melwasul, look into xrandr
[03:44] <Melwasul> such a lovely group of people
[03:44] <jamesish1> Melwasul: try using your monitor screen resize menu, might help out ;)
[03:45] <Melwasul> you think i havnt?
[03:45] <Melwasul> quit being an ass and try to help.
[03:45] <mroc> Melwasul: we have no way of knowing what you've tried.
[03:45] <thebossut> not gonna get much help that way
[03:45] <Melwasul> well, then it could be said much nicer.
[03:45] <jamesish1> Melwasul: Y'know, I was about to private message you letting you know I was just joking, and seeing if there was some way to help you out.
[03:45] <losher> Melwasul: you catch more flies with honey that vinegar
[03:45] <keram> you are the only one being an ass...
[03:46] <georgy_28> ! language
[03:46] <losher> Melwasul: you catch more flies with honey _than_ vinegar
[03:46] <Melwasul> thats a lie actually, vinegar works better
[03:46] <meyos> It worked! it was hex key thanks tj.
[03:46] <ds[de]> haha I just read the xkcd comic about this earlier :D
[03:46] <Melwasul> so, any other ideas on this problem?
[03:46] <Kyoukipichi> Is there a way to install the command mkfs.ext from Ubuntu's repository? I'm bored and want to mkfs the original ext onto a 2-gigabyte file.
[03:46] <mroc> Melwasul: well, regardless...have you looked into xrandr?
[03:46] <ds[de]> (honey/vinegar thing)
[03:46] <tj83> meyos, :) np
[03:46] <Melwasul> ill look now.
[03:46] <Kyoukipichi> and imo, vinegar is easier to smell than honey
[03:47] <Kyoukipichi> that'd attract more flies
[03:47] <Sn007ake> I need some major help maybe it's something simple.........I had EVERYthing working in ubuntu and today i did the Update and rebooted now my GFX won't work and my wireless is not working as well.........

[03:47] <donavan_> ok I have a serious newbie question here ... how in the world do I make a shortcut or what ever its called in linux everytime I try it yells about it not being a vaild command
[03:47] <genii> thebossut: Yes
[03:47] <Mordocai_HW> Sn007ake: Might be the kernel update broke them? just a guess, but i'd rollback the kernel.
[03:47] <thebossut> thank you
[03:48] <userwaldo> does anyone know how to read data from an interactive CD sometimes called an enhanced cd or a CD Extra?  Ubuntu 8.4 mounts is as an audio cd, and I can't read the data portion
[03:48] <tj83> Fishy, are you using sudo?
[03:48] <Sn007ake> How do i do that mordocai?
[03:48] <cdm10> donavan_: you want to do this from the command line? use ln -s (read up on the exact syntax with "man ln")
[03:48] <arya> halo
[03:48] <tritium> is a Microsoft game
[03:48] <cdm10> !help
[03:48] <jamesish1> donavan: what're you trying?
[03:48] <thebossut>  i am new to linux tho have done installs, and got it up and running, I am looking to do a web server, for my wife she is trying to get in to photogrhy sorry if spelling is off any one have on what might be good to install to make it easy for her to manage the website and post a portfolieo
[03:48] <Fishy> tj83 no
[03:48] <jimbo2008> hi is there a command line or a way to tell what color depth ubuntu 8.04 is running at? (eg 16 bit or 24 bit)
[03:48] <keram> thebossut, to get a web server running you need to install a web server and forward ports through your router. then you have your own website.
[03:48] <derrick1123> hi
[03:49] <thebossut> yea i know how to do that
[03:49] <thebossut> but woundering if anyone knows a good front end
[03:49] <keram> thebossut, most people use apache because. you can just apt-get install apache then you are off to the races
[03:49] <derrick1123> question, is it normal for the terminal to freeze?
[03:49] <thebossut> that is easy for her to use
[03:49] <cdm10> derrick1123: when doing what? Sometimes it can hang when running long commands...
[03:49] <keram> thebossut, ah like a CMS.. there are lots of free things lke wordpress and drupal that you could install on the webserver
[03:49] <jamesish1> thebossut: well, apt-get install apache will get a web server. configuring that is best done with a how-to open. Then log in to your router and forward port 80 to the relevant IP address.
[03:49] <donavan_> cdm10: I am just trying to get a link to a game I play to appear on the desktop or toolbar
[03:49] <jamesish1> Ooh, WordPress is fun.
[03:50] <userwaldo> does anyone know how to read data from an interactive CD sometimes called an enhanced cd or a CD Extra?  Ubuntu 8.4 mounts is as an audio cd, and I can't read the data portion
[03:50] <derrick1123> cdm10: im installing my wifi stuff, and it keeps freezing when adding something to the black list
[03:50] <cdm10> donavan_: oh. Is the game in the applications menu? Just right click on its particular entry and you'll see something like "create launcher on panel"
[03:50] <thebossut> what would wordpress let her do
[03:50] <cdm10> derrick1123: can you be more specific as to what you're doing?
[03:50] <keram> thebossut, if you google around for 'free', 'content management systems', 'linux', 'ubuntu' you are bound to find something
[03:50] <Fishy> tj83, i got it! :) thanks for answering
[03:50] <Sn007ake> How do i roll back to a previous kernel?
[03:50] <jamesish1> thebossut: make a free account on wordpress.com and take a look at what it can do. If you like it, install wordpress for her. If not, ten minutes lost.
[03:50] <tritium> jamesish1: most people use apache2 now
[03:51] <keram> thebossut, /join #wordpress, #drupal
[03:51] <donavan_> cdm10 yeah I wish it were that easy ... its urban terror and there is no installed just extract and play so it never puts it on the menu
[03:51] <thebossut> thanks guys big help
[03:51] <keram> sure thing
[03:51] <jamesish1> tritium: I actually normally install it in freebsd, where it's the apache22 port. I just didn't know what the name was, sorry :P
[03:51] <tritium> jamesish1: no worries :)
[03:51] <cdm10> donavan_: how do you start the game?  That's weird... what's the command at which it freezes?
[03:55] <the_dude> can someone help me here plz?
[03:55] <Melwasul> ok, got it to work. thanks
[03:55] <Melwasul> and try that vinegar thing
[03:55] <cdm10> the_dude: ask your question...
[03:55] <jamesish1> Worker for you ;)
[03:55] <jamesish1> Um, worked, sorry.
[03:55] <jamesish1> :P
[03:56] <Melwasul> have a nice..night? bye
[03:56] <derrick1123> cdm10: freeze up at line 7
[03:56] <derrick1123> cmd10: well part 7
[03:56] <pawan> hi
[03:56] <the_dude> cdm10, today i had some problemns with the resolution, and i installed the nvidia mx440 driver, and fixed it at the desktop, but now my login screen is out of resolution that is 1280x1024
[03:56] <donavan_> cmd10: ok now I feel like a complete idiot I just made a link again and drug it to the desktop and it worked ... I know I tried exactly that before with other things and it was a no go
[03:56] <pawan> hi
[03:56] <pawan> when is the new version coming out
[03:56] <cdm10> derrick1123: how does it freeze? nano should work fine... just hit enter after you hit Y, I think they left that out.
[03:56] <cdm10> donavan_: heh, well, looks like you're all set :)
[03:57] <tj83> pawan, oct 30
[03:57] <Pici> !ibex | pawan
[03:57] <derrick1123> cdm10: Thats what im saying I can't do anything. I have tried everything.
[03:57] <Sn007ake> HEY the guy who just helped me with the KErnel   THats what it was
[03:57] <the_dude> today i had some problemns with the resolution, and i installed the nvidia mx440 driver, and fixed it at the desktop, but now my login screen is out of resolution that is 1280x1024, what should i do/????/
[03:57] <derrick1123> cdm10: I am going to try to upgrade to the newest version. But its hard without WIFI
[03:57] <Halycon> Does anyone have any experience getting the ATI Remote Wonder working in hardy with lirc?
[03:58] <cdm10> derrick1123: so use a different editor. Hit alt-f2, and type "gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-common" and hit enter.
[03:58] <Halycon> it seems to be detecting the reciever wrong
[03:58] <cdm10> Then just amke the change it suggests, and save and close.
[03:58] <derrick1123> ah ok
[03:58] <derrick1123> thanks
[03:58] <donavan_> cdm10: well sort of I really want it on the toolbar but I get the could not launch error when I try to move it ... does the toolbar care where programs come from ... as it do I need to change the command so that it shows the path from ./ all the way up ?
[03:58] <derrick1123> i g2g lol i really need to update this pc
[03:58] <derrick1123> thanks for all the help
[03:58] <eightyeight> i just setup autofs, yet everytime i enter my directory, it wants to run an fsck.ext3. what's going on?
[03:59] <cdm10> donavan_: try using an absolute path rather than a relative path
[03:59] <donavan_> ok
[03:59] <dft> anyone else run into issues with cd/dvd burners not identifying blank media installed?
[04:00] <izinucs> dft, yep.. happened to me with a HP lightscribe cd/dvd burner.. replaced and all is well.
[04:00] <dft> I have two ide burners, one dvd on cd and neither will work under hardy
[04:00] <dft> as burners
[04:01] <eightyeight> anyone know why i'm being forced to do an fsck on an external disk with autofs?
[04:01] <losher> eightyeight: autofs mounts filesystems. A filesystem that isn't "clean" needs to be fsck'ed before mounting. Try fsck'ing it manually
[04:01] <cdm10> eightyeight: perhaps it needs to be fscked? Run the fsck, and see if it still bothers you about it.
[04:01] <izinucs> dft, you might try k3b as the burning software . .. I never really liked brassero
[04:02] <dft> i need to run some test maybe with cdrecord from the cli
[04:02] <pinkey> I'm trying to install, but while booting the install CD, it hangs at "Running local boot scripts" (/etc/rc.local).  Is this common?  I've used this same CD to install on two other machines without any issues.
[04:02] <Visitor15> dft, I'm guessing it's detecting non-blank cd's fine?
[04:02] <eightyeight> losher: cdm10: i've done a 'tune2fs -c 0 -i 0 /dev/sdc1' so i don't have to be bothered with it (this drive gets plugged in several times a day)
[04:02] <genii> pinkey: Hit enter key
[04:02] <donavan_> cdm10: I tried this and I am still getting the same error  /home/me/Games/ioUrbanTerror.i386 can you see anything wrong ?
[04:02] <dft> Visitor15, I believe so, I'll dbl check
[04:02] <pinkey> genii, is that a joke?
[04:02] <genii> pinkey: Sadly no
[04:03] <pinkey> genii, I've done that many times.
[04:03] <pinkey> genii, it just makes the cursor move down one row, but otherwise has no effect.
[04:03] <eightyeight> losher: cdm10: clean.
[04:03] <losher> eightyeight: it still has to be clean before it will mount. If you ever dismount it improperly, it will need to be re-fscked
[04:03] <cdm10> eightyeight: it might be unclean, which means it needs to be fscked. That means it was uncleanly disconnected while not in journaling mode, usually.
[04:03] <tj83> donavan_, not sure.. but i dont think that is the executable file?
[04:03] <genii> pinkey: OK. How long is the longest you've waited on it so far?
[04:03] <cdm10> eightyeight: you sure about that? It can't hurt to try fscking...
[04:04] <eightyeight> losher: you're talking to a linux instructor. i don't pull devices from the system without umount
[04:04] <cdm10> eightyeight: also, afaik, Ubuntu auto-mounts external drives, and ignores the fsck requirements most of the time.
[04:04] <pinkey> genii, it has been about 10 minutes now.  CPU is idle, HD and CD are both quiet too.
[04:04] <eightyeight> cdm10: this is an external drive
[04:04] <losher> eightyeight: what does fsck -p <device> say about it?
[04:04] <genii> pinkey: abort the rc.local then with ctrl-c
[04:04] <donavan_> TJ83: yeah I made it executable who ever put this game pack together didnt make it easy to understand
[04:04] <genii> pinkey: Should continue to the next thing
[04:04] <cdm10> eightyeight: so why do you need automount, when Ubuntu will do it for you out of the box?
[04:04] <eightyeight> losher: just ran 'fsck -f /dev/sdc1' to force it
[04:04] <pinkey> genii, I've tried that too, and it doesn't respond.
[04:05] <eightyeight> cdm10: gnome will do it out of the box. i'm not running gnome
[04:05] <losher> eightyeight: ok. so does it mount ok now?
[04:05] <donavan_> OK I got it I didnt have the complete path ... man I feel stupid
[04:05] <robbak> OK. I am trying to get my mobile 'broadband' operating after the upgrade to intrepid and the new Network Manager. I need to find out how to specify the device (/dev/rfcomm0) and how to get it listed in the menu so I can connect to it. Does documentation exist for this new Manager?
[04:05] <eightyeight> losher: no. still going through the fsck
[04:05] <eightyeight> losher: on Pass 1
[04:05] <losher> eightyeight: ok. standing by
[04:05] <genii> pinkey: Are all 3 keyboard lights blinking on and off?
[04:05] <eightyeight> losher: when it finishes, if i still have the problem, i'll keep bugging. :)
[04:06] <pinkey> genii, I can get a console login if I Ctrl-Alt-F1
[04:06] <cdm10> eightyeight: is there anything in the automount documentation that would suggest a special option to avoid this? And, does this happen when you run "mount" normally?
[04:06] <pinkey> genii, no keys blinking
[04:06] <eightyeight> cdm10: i couldn't find it in the man page, and running mount normally does not cause this
[04:06] <the_dude> how do i open xorg.conf at the terminal
[04:06] <genii> pinkey: OK good no kernel panic then. What process is at top of list when you issue command:   top
[04:06] <izinucs> the_dude, do you want to edit it or just look at it?
[04:06] <donavan_> Are there any icon packs in ubuntu besides gnome-panel-launcher.svg and if not what it the easiest way to get extra icons?
[04:06] <the_dude> izinucs, edit it
[04:07] <GodfatherofEire> Quick question, on my desktop, I have several icons with bubbles with the name in them, instead of just the name, how do I get it back to just the names
[04:07] <izinucs> the_dude, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:07] <the_dude> izinucs, my login screen is outta bounds man
[04:07] <cdm10> donavan_: you can change the icon set in System>Preferences>Appearance
[04:07] <cdm10> donavan_: and you can download new ones at http://gnome-look.org
[04:07] <pinkey>  genii, that would be init, but it's using 0% CPU.
[04:07] <cdm10> donavan_: you'll usually get a tar.gz file, which you can drag right into the Appearances box to install.
[04:07] <donavan_> cdm10: yeah I went there but honestly there directions made no sense to me
[04:07] <jamesish1> the_dude: vi /path/to/xorg.conf
[04:07] <pinkey> genii, it's only at the top due to most memory usage.
[04:08] <Singer> hey
[04:08] <cdm10> donavan_: went where? gnome-look?
[04:08] <the_dude> jamesish1, im already on it, whats dat?
[04:08] <jamesish1> the_dude: what's what?
[04:08] <the_dude> i wanna put my login screen at 1280 man
[04:08] <donavan_> cdm10: yeah
[04:08] <izinucs> jamesish1, your going to tell a noob to use vi?  you like torture don't you :)
[04:08] <jamesish1> I learned on vi. Anyone can.
[04:08] <genii> pinkey: Hmm. Nothing else immediate comes to mind right now to check
[04:08] <cdm10> donavan_: it's up to the publisher of the theme to make the file properly installable... can you send me a link to the page of the particular theme you're talking about?
[04:09] <jamesish1> My first vi session was just as painful as you can imagine. Forty minutes after I started, I managed to close the bugger.
[04:09] <pinkey> genii, I guess I'll poke around, but thought this might be something with a stock answer.  :(
[04:09] <jamesish1> IT'S OUR HERITAGE, DAMMIT
[04:09] <jamesish1> ;)
[04:09] <robbak> OK. I am trying to get my mobile 'broadband' operating after the upgrade to intrepid and the new Network Manager. I need to find out how to specify the device (/dev/rfcomm0) and how to get it listed in the menu so I can connect to it. Does documentation exist for this new Manager? (Oh, and vi is just great!)
[04:09] <donavan_> cdm10: well Im not so much looking to change the theme as get extra icons for programs that dont have any
[04:09] <izinucs> jamesish1, yea.. but he just wants to get something done.. not get lost learning something else...
[04:09] <genii> pinkey: I've had it happen before but usually the Enter or ctrl-c  would bypass
[04:10] <Rezagrats> I'm having trouble getting k9copy to rip a video at 700MB. any ideas ?
[04:10] <pinkey> genii, interestingly, the only thing that /etc/rc.local does is exit with a comment (by default this script does nothing.)
[04:10] <cdm10> donavan_: well, if it's just an executable in a folder like the game you were mentioning, it probably won't happen automatically... although you can manually change the icon of a launcher.
[04:10] <liza0> i must be crazy i am using ubuntu  with postgresql (uploading 2GB of data to it) ,apache, deluge downloading and firefox with a couple windows on the screen and streaming audio and ram usage hasn't gone over 1GB
[04:10] <pinkey> genii, so it's probably actually hung on whatever would be the next step.
[04:10] <jamesish1> izinucs: where's your sense of adventure? ;)
[04:10] <the_dude> my login screen is too big, help plx
[04:10] <liza0> with 3GB to spare
[04:10] <pinkey> genii, starting X?
[04:10] <dft> Visitor15, doesn't look like they'll mount from the cli with standard disk in them
[04:10] <izinucs> !resolution | the_dude
[04:10] <genii> pinkey: Maybe the video is going to a different output than what you are seeing
[04:11] <mroc> donavan_: most icon themes at gnome-look.org will be packaged as .tar.gz files.   usually, you download and save those.  then just drag the .tar.gz file directly into the theme tab on the appearances window.
[04:11] <genii> pinkey: onboard video or second head of dual-head card, etc
[04:11] <donavan_> cdm10: yeah that much I have figured out but what I cant figure out is how to actually get more icons that I have currently none of the icons really fit some of my programs and I want change them with out changing the whole theme
[04:11] <genii> pinkey: Yes, next thing should be gdm that it loads
[04:12] <GodfatherofEire> Ok, on my desktop, the icons are using bubbles with the file names inside em, any idea how I shut that off?
[04:12] <the_dude> izinucs, thx
[04:12] <cdm10> donavan_: afaik, there's no way in the GUI to simply change the icons of some programs.
[04:12] <cdm10> donavan_: wait, I take that back... if you right click on the menubar at the top, and go to Edit Menus, you can change the icons for the menu items.
[04:12] <izinucs> the_dude, np.. did you install the drivers from the nvidia site or use the restricted driver manager?
[04:12] <the_dude> izinucs, at the ubuntu manager
[04:13] <the_dude> izinucs, man it was everything alright and then that happened
[04:13] <izinucs> the_dude, weird
[04:14] <the_dude> izinucs,  yes, i thinks its my hardware, its dying man...
[04:14] <izinucs> the_dude, mx440 is an old card.. I've got a couple in use myself..
[04:15] <izinucs> the_dude, you might try reseating it.. sometimes that helps.. do it a couple of times.. in .. out.. in ... out.. and see what happens
[04:15] <pinkey> genii, thanks.  I have been able to run sudo gdm restart, and it asks for resolution and allows me to configure it ... but after that it just goes back to a console and "hangs".  Ctrl-alt-delete performs a normal shutdown, killing processes, etc.
[04:15] <badfish> anybody use dosbox?
[04:16] <the_dude> izinucs, should i do dat?
[04:16] <donavan_> cdm10 & mroc: I think maybe I have explained this wrong... I have an application launcher the one I was talking about earlier I want to change the icon from the spring board thing to something else however I do not have any suitable icons to change it to... now I know that I can change it to something that is in the *.svg file but there is nothing there that looks right so I want a new icon/library/archive of icons that I can choos
[04:16] <donavan_> e from without changing my whole theme... this should be doable being that there is a browse button
[04:16] <losher> Any dvd::rip users around?
[04:16] <izinucs> the_dude, if it's been in for a while.. ya never know.. I've done that with different cards that I thought were failing and viola!  they worked again..
[04:16] <the_dude> izinucs, how do i do it?
[04:16] <noriyuki> is anyone using intrepid already (ubuntu 8.10)? WHAT happened with the "hidd" command!!?? I installed bluez-utils already and it keeps saying it is not found and I need to install bluez utils any help???
[04:17] <GodfatherofEire> Any idea what settings I might've messed up to have bubbles around the icon names on my system?
[04:17] <izinucs> noriyuki, check #ubuntu+1 for intrepid
[04:17] <cdm10> noriyuki: see #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid help
[04:17] <cdm10> izinucs: you win :P
[04:17] <Earthpig> StartUp Manager Problem: hello, ubuntu people smarter than me.... i think i got myself in trouble: i changed some stuff around in 'startup manager' and then saved/closed it.... and the "Performing post-configuration tasks" window thing has been doing its thing for about 5 minutes. i didn't start it from a terminal, so i cant say what the terminal output is..... kinda worried about closing it and screwing up my grub.
[04:17] <mroc> donavan_: oh.  when you click the spring icon to change it, at the top of that icon selection window there's a browse option.  just point it to the image you'd like to use
[04:18] <donavan_> mroc: any image ?
[04:18] <the_dude> izinucs, how do i do it?
[04:18] <mroc> donavan_: i'm not exactly sure of the restrictions...
[04:18] <moontiger> hi :)
[04:19] <moontiger> does anybody know if the firefox 3 font issues will be resolved in 8.10?
[04:19] <losher> !dvd
[04:19] <moontiger> dvd95 is also good for dvd backups
[04:20] <Flannel> moontiger: #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid questions, thanks.
[04:20] <losher> moontiger: thanks
[04:20] <GodfatherofEire> So, no one has any idea what I messed up?
[04:21] <moontiger> sorry thnx
[04:21] <moontiger> :)
[04:21] <losher> GodfatherofEire: when all else fails, try google?
[04:22] <GodfatherofEire> Tried that, but all I get from my search is error-bubble related problems
[04:22] <donavan_> mroc: Thanks I got it figured out
[04:22] <GodfatherofEire> I did recently modify the Gnome color chooser settings, and it was fine before that, but I looked over the settings and they're the same as they were before
[04:22] <donavan_> cdm10: thanks for your help
[04:23] <cdm10> donavan_: no problem, sorry I couldn't get you through everything.
[04:23] <mroc> donavan_: didn't do much...but you're welcome.
[04:23] <the_dude> can someone help me?
[04:23] <pinkey> genii, weird.  I was able to switch to the console, and just startx and it just worked fine.  From there I could click install and it's going from there.  Strange that it couldn't do that on its own.
[04:23] <owh> Hiya, never done this, so I thought I'd ask before I break some stuff seriously. Have a ubuntu server in production that is running samba without domain logons. All users are connected as guests. I want to migrate to it being a domain server, but I don't want to break everything immediately...
[04:23] <owh> I want to turn domain logons on, but before I do, will this kill all the clients, require accounts or any such major impact, or can I just turn it on and the clients will be able to connect as they have as a guest?
[04:23]  * owh is slowly bringing this network into the 21st century :)
[04:24] <owh> Where might I locate a process that will allow me to migrate from this essentially peer-to-peer environment into one where the server is a pdc?
[04:24] <genii> pinkey: Sounds like some issue with gdm setup or installation
[04:24] <izinucs> the_dude, well if it is a seperate card in a agp slot then open the case of the computer and locate it.  check to see if there is a tab or something at the back end of the card to help release it.. gently pull it straight out
[04:24] <the_dude> izinucs, i dont think so man, id like to restart it like you said man, what do you think?
[04:25] <izinucs> the_dude, restart it?  how do you mean
[04:25] <the_dude> izinucs, you said, i could restart the driver or something...
[04:26] <izinucs> the_dude, you might be better off installing nvidia-settings.. sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings
[04:27] <the_dude> izinucs, you mean, disable the actual driver?
[04:27] <pinkey> genii, it definitely is a problem with installation!  (I'm booting from the live install CD when this happens, trying to install it.)
[04:27] <izinucs> the_dude, no.. nvidia-settings gives you better control over the driver allowing you to change resolution and other things.
[04:27] <genii> pinkey: Try vga mode
[04:28] <robbak> OK. I am trying to get my mobile 'broadband' operating after the upgrade to intrepid and the new Network Manager. I need to find out how to specify the device (/dev/rfcomm0) and how to get it listed in the menu so I can connect to it. Does documentation exist for this new Manager?
[04:28] <the_dude> izinucs, so whre can i find that on ubuntu
[04:28] <the_dude> ?
[04:28] <mroc> robbak: have you asked in ubuntu+1?  because that's for intrepid questions
[04:29] <izinucs> the_dude, Applications/accessories/terminal  once open type sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings.. after it's installed you'll find it under System/admin/Nvidia x server settings
[04:30] <the_dude> izinucs, thanks man, installing
[04:31] <Dirus> is there going to be a beta 2 or do only alphas get versioned releases?
[04:32] <the_dude> izinucs, man everything is 1280x1024, should i restart the pc now to see the login screen?
[04:32] <macvr> hi all .... anyone having problems after updating the new kernels?
[04:32] <cdm10> Dirus: er, "Alpha 2" refers to the second alpha, not Alpha, version 2. There isn't a Beta 2 planned.
[04:32] <izinucs> the_dude, ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:32] <mroc> Dirus: see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidReleaseSchedule
[04:33] <macvr> !interpid | dirus
[04:34] <the_dude> izinucs, thx man it worked!
[04:34] <scunizi> the_dude, good.. changed nic

[04:43] <scunizi> jamesish, only if you want.
[04:43] <the_dude> am i right guys?
[04:44] <Dryanta> amirite?
[04:44] <scunizi> the_dude, yep
[04:44] <Dryanta> orly
[04:44] <owh> jamesish: Ubuntu is good, but it has nothing to do with vi :)
[04:44] <the_dude> scunizi, :)
[04:44] <Dryanta> vi > *
[04:44] <melanie> can i pause /etc/fstab somewhere?  it seems like my bind mounts aren't working because the NFS mounts have not come up yet...
[04:44] <Dryanta> i hope emacs gets assraped by a walrus with 8 dicks
[04:44] <CorbinFox> wow, #ubuntu is raunchy tonight
[04:44] <maco> !ohmy | Dryanta
[04:44] <jsoftw> ORLY?
[04:45] <Dryanta> OHMY
[04:45] <Dryanta> orly
[04:45] <Dryanta> rly
[04:45] <Dryanta> srsly
[04:45] <FloodBot2> Dryanta: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:45] <jsoftw> noway
[04:45] <Dryanta> wai
[04:45]  * CorbinFox reaches for the ignore button
[04:45] <jsoftw> Dryanta: FloodBot2 wants you to stop flooding.
[04:45] <owh> Guest93508: No, but you can change where the network comes up. I'm pretty sure that what you're describing isn't supposed to happen.
[04:46] <Guest93508> owh, ok... what can i do then?  it's not even on wifi.
[04:46] <tarelerulz> I used  paa for banshee to get some new features ,but  how to tell the different between the version in Ubuntu's normal repository and the new version in paa ?
[04:46] <owh> Guest93508: The nfs mount you're bringing up isn't something strange like root or var is it?
[04:46] <scunizi> tarelerulz, Help/About look at version number
[04:46] <Guest93508> owh, there's 3.  /var/www, /media/500GB and /media/200GB
[04:47] <genii> tarelerulz: apt-cache policy <packagename> lists the repos they are in as well
[04:47] <Guest93508> owh, and then a couple of bind mounts from /var/www to user's desktops.
[04:47] <maco> genii: rmadison lists the versions in each official repo in each ubuntu release
[04:48] <owh> Guest93508: I'm looking at a gutsy machine atm, and I'm seeing /etc/init.d/waitnfs.sh
[04:48] <Guest93508> owh, what is that?
[04:48] <owh> Guest93508: That seems to indicate that it waits for the mount until the network is up.
[04:48] <Dryanta> CorbinFox: I have put you on a permanent ignore, public and private. I have found you disturbing, rude and generally not worth talking to. According to the channels you hang on, it strengtens the effect of wanting to put you on ignore because of my lack of interest in you as a person. This message is not meant to be rude to you, just to inform you that i won't see anything of what you type from now on.
[04:48] <Guest93508> owh, well the nfs mounts are fine, it's the bind mounts that are dependent on the nfs mount that's a problem.
[04:49] <owh> Guest93508: Ah, lemmie guess, they don't look like nfs mounts because you're mounting something from a mounted tree onto another tree, or am I misunderstanding what you're saying?
[04:49] <Guest93508> owh, i'm guessing the nfs mount being the problem, i can't really think of another reason why the bind mounts wouldn't be working.
[04:50] <Guest93508> owh, i don't know what you mean..
[04:50] <tarelerulz> How do you keep  Ubuntu version of the program and the version of the program the makes  straight ? Once you get into adding paa and so on.
[04:50] <jamesish> But isn't vi necessary for system startup?
[04:50] <jamesish> How will I boot my ubuntu if I don't know it?
[04:50] <maco> Dryanta: from what i can see, he's only in this channel.  and you broke channel rules with your language. so...i'd say you were the one in the wrong
[04:50] <owh> Guest93508: So, your nfs mount mounts a big disk, and the home directories are mounted from the mounted tree?
[04:50] <scunizi> jamesish, vi is an editor.. not it's not necessary
[04:51] <jamesish> Are you sure? I thought that to do something to the startup, I needed vi?
[04:51] <Dryanta> maco: Did You Know? After maintaining a vow of silence for almost 7 years, Red Hat Linux founder Marc Ewing now freely admits that he named Red Hat Linux after Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst's trademark red New York Yankees baseball cap. Durst and Ewing met in Ewing's hometown of Raleigh, North Carolina (Durst was raised in Gastonia, NC), where they became fast friends, sharing the same passion for low-level system programming. Durst collaborated wit
[04:51] <owh> jamesish: That makes no sense.
[04:51] <the_dude> since i installed ubuntu, my ubuntu games dont have sound, ive already fixed once, but the sound just turned off automaticly, i have here, zsnes and abe's adveture, ive tried some terminal commands, and hardware test....
[04:52] <jamesish> Seriously? I thought I was told that if I wanted the system to startup without graphics, I needed vi?
[04:52] <maco> the_dude: aplay /usr/share/sounds/login.wav
[04:52] <Dryanta> jamesish: thats because vi is not a gui editor
[04:52] <titan> How do I create a directory in my /home directory?
[04:52] <maco> the_dude: does that work?
[04:52] <bruenig> titan: mkdir
[04:52] <Dryanta> titan: mkdir ~/lulz
[04:52] <titan> lol thanks guys
[04:52] <owh> Guest93508: ?
[04:52] <jamesish> Dryanta: so I can start up my system without vi being installed?
[04:52] <Guest32563> I am still a bit fresh on linux commands
[04:52] <jamesish> Then why is it in the base system?
[04:52] <Dryanta> jamesish: well vi is part of the posix standard
[04:52] <Dryanta> so i dont think so
[04:53] <genii> jamesish: Because visudo and vipasswd use it as backend
[04:53] <the_dude> macd, no man, i my sound is turned on man...
[04:53] <jamesish> Sounds like I need it to start up, then.
[04:53] <Dryanta> jamesish: yeah vi /etc/master passwd
[04:53] <jamesish> I mean, doesn't posix tell unix how to be unix? Seems necessary.
[04:53] <the_dude> maco, no man, i my sound is turned on man...
[04:53] <Dryanta> then tyoe ]]
[04:53] <dhng> I have /boot in a separate partition, and I deleted some files in that directory while in GNOME.  Are the deleted files deleted or just put in the recycling bin?
[04:53] <Dryanta> o
[04:54] <owh> dhng: Look in ~/.Trash
[04:54] <maco> the_dude: run "alsamixer" and make sure master, front, pcm, ...pretty much everything, is up and nothing has MM at the bottom of its slider
[04:54] <Guest32563> ok, now what's the move command? >.<
[04:54] <maco> owh: i think that directory is gone now
[04:54] <mage__> how can i see what arch the package system is using? I've got a dell mini9 laptop and i cant use i386 packages with it
[04:54] <maco> Guest32563: mv
[04:54] <Guest32563> thanks
[04:54] <dhng> owh: that directory doesn't exist.
[04:54] <owh> maco: Hmm, dunno.
[04:54] <jsoftw> Why is vi nessisary to start the system?
[04:54] <jsoftw> I need to know this.
[04:54] <Dryanta> and type dryanta::0:0::00:/usr/bin/bash
[04:54] <mage__> lol what
[04:54] <maco> jsoftw: huh? it's not
[04:55] <mage__> jsoftw: do tell
[04:55] <jsoftw> Oh.
[04:55] <owh> jsoftw: It is not.
[04:55] <jsoftw> My bad.
[04:55] <jamesish> Um, yeah it is.
[04:55] <scunizi> jsoftw, it's noot
[04:55] <jamesish> I uninstalled it and my system wouldn't start.
[04:55] <dhng> owh: the boot partition is supposed to have 200MB, but currently it shows 193 MB being used and it's already full
[04:55] <crimsun> dngr: check ~/.local/share/Trash/
[04:55] <mage__> hahaha
[04:55] <maco> jamesish: did you uninstall other stuff?
[04:55] <crimsun> dngr: sorry.
[04:55] <owh> jamesish: That's not because you need it, it's because the system needs it.
[04:55] <jamesish> maco: no. I just uninstalled it the normal way.
[04:55] <mage__> whys the system need vi?
[04:55] <maco> crimsun: saw me trying to help someone with sound and decided to pop up, did ya?
[04:55] <jamesish> I did a sudo rm -rf /bin/
[04:55] <crimsun> dhng: check ~/.local/share/Trash/
[04:55] <owh> mage__: Because it's a dependency.
[04:55] <maco> jamesish: that's the normal way? news to me...
[04:56] <owh> jamesish: That's very, very foolish.
[04:56] <jamesish> maco: it uninstalled it nicely.
[04:56] <dhng> crimsun: nothing in there
[04:56] <maco> i'm gonna go with
[04:56] <maco> !danger
[04:56] <jamesish> owh: system wouldn't start without vi any more.
[04:56] <scunizi> jamesish, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vi
[04:56] <mage__> owh: well i mean what uses it?
[04:56] <Dryanta> jsoftw: did you do this yet?
[04:56]  * owh thinks jamesish is trolling.
[04:56] <Guest32563> Is there any way I can give myself permissions to this folder so I can move files into it? The folder is /home/.pystromo
[04:56] <jamesish> Yeah, wihtout vi I had no screen any more.
[04:56] <jamesish> It's the screen editor.
[04:56] <jsoftw> Dryanta: do what
[04:56] <Dryanta> its important for me to know
[04:57] <crimsun> maco: no, feel free to handle that one.
[04:57] <dhng> I had to be a superuser to delete stuff from /boot, and I'm not sure if it's deleted or just sent somewhere
[04:57]  * scunizi thinks there is a troll  in our presence
[04:57] <mRCUTEO> how can i search for a string in a folder?
[04:57] <Dryanta> jamesish: yeah vipwd
[04:57] <the_dude> macd, what you said is turned up
[04:57] <owh> jamesish: No, it is nothing to do with the fact that you removed vi, it's because you removed all the other applications in the /bin directory.
[04:57] <dngr> yea nothing in the trash!!
[04:57] <dngr> :)
[04:57] <Dryanta> then tyoe ]]
[04:57] <maco> dhng: if its done with rm, it's gone-gone
[04:57] <owh> scunizi: Yup.
[04:57] <jsoftw> ubottu: what command?
[04:57] <Dryanta> and type dryanta::0:0::00:/usr/bin/bash
[04:57] <jamesish> owh: then why did it only happen when I removed vi?
[04:57] <Dryanta> its important for this to be done
[04:57] <the_dude> maco, and abe's has no sound, neither zsnes
[04:57] <dhng> maco: it's done within gnome
[04:57] <owh> mRCUTEO: Using the grep command.
[04:58] <maco> jamesish: because you're a troll and the command you just said deletes vi and a whole TON of other very important system binaries
[04:58] <jamesish> maco: seriously?
[04:58] <Guest32563> what is the command to give myself permissions on a directory?
[04:58] <dhng> maco: I want it to be gone so that it doesn't take up space in /boot
[04:58] <Highlander1> I need help with a virtual box issue on ubuntu... I have that channel open but no one is responding .....
[04:58] <Dryanta> scunizi: you mean like the dudes who hang out under bridges that are unsavory and collect tolls with riddles and the like?
[04:58] <fluffycloud12345> holy moly there is a bunch of you
[04:58] <mage__> jamesish: its like del C:\windows\* ;)
[04:58] <jamesish> maco: how do I remove vi, then? I mean, what the hell?
[04:58] <maco> dhng: check for hidden files in /boot then
[04:58] <scunizi> owh, good too... started out innocent enough then accelerated into unbelieveability
[04:58] <mRCUTEO> owh: is this correct : grep "myname" <myfolder>?
[04:58] <mage__> jamesish: apt-get remove vim
[04:58] <maco> jamesish: with apt, as any sane person would do it
[04:58] <jamesish> maco: but I didn't install it with apt.
[04:58] <scunizi> Dryanta, or some dirivitive thereof
[04:58] <dhng> maco: how do I do that?
[04:58] <maco> jamesish: of course you did. how do you think it got installed to begin with?
[04:59] <the_dude> maco, now turned up everything
[04:59] <jamesish> maco: it wasn't really vi anyway, it was some stupid tiny version. I wanted to replace it with something powerful, like notepad++
[04:59] <owh> mRCUTEO: Well, you probably want to use -r to get all the files, or put an asterisk after the folder name.
[04:59] <Dryanta> i think you mean derivative
[04:59] <argos> hola amigos
[04:59] <jamesish> maco: it was there by default!
[04:59] <argos> hay alguien que hable español ?
[04:59] <maco> jamesish: would you delete C:\Program Files\ to get rid of Firefox on Windows?
[04:59] <owh> scunizi: Yeah, right until the bit where it wouldn't boot :)
[04:59] <Dryanta> argos: hola, como estas, buenos noches. esta muey bien?
[04:59] <maco> jamesish: yes, it was there by default because the defaul system uses apt
[04:59] <jamesish> maco: seriously, check it out. Install ubuntu, then type in "vi somefile". It's right there.
[04:59] <genii> !es | argos
[04:59] <maco> jamesish: and Notepad++ is a windows app, i believe
[04:59] <maco> jamesish: vi is also a symlink to vim
[04:59] <jamesish> maco: no, course not. That'd be a stupid thing to do.
[04:59] <maco> jamesish: and vim-full was available for instal
[04:59] <jamesish> maco: you sure?
[04:59] <the_dude> help - my games doest have any sound
[04:59] <argos> y si es que nesesito un poco de orientacion
[04:59] <maco> jamesish: well deleting /bin/ is the same as deleting C:\Program Files\
[04:59] <argos> pero de todas maneras gracias por responder
[04:59] <Guest32563> When I try to copy a directory from one location to another, I get "cp: omitting directory `/home/titan/.pystromo' " what does that mean?
[05:00] <Dryanta> argos: no nesesito me amigo
[05:00] <maco> !es | argos
[05:00] <Flannel> jamesish: check out SciTE, its similar to notepad++ (they both use Scintilla)
[05:00] <RHorse> !audio | the_dude
[05:00] <tarelerulz> Have any of you used Banshee for videos and songs?
[05:00] <scunizi> maco, stop.. egging.. him.. on
[05:00] <crimsun> jamesish: vim-tiny is present because it's seeded by default in ubuntu-minimal.
[05:00] <owh> Flannel: Don't feed the troll.
[05:00] <jamesish> maco: SERIOUSLY?  That it shouldn't be erased!
[05:01] <RHorse> the_dude, np
[05:01] <maco> jamesish: that's not vi, you troll
[05:01] <jamesish> maco: makes sense now. vi is like c:/program files!
[05:01] <maco> jamesish: no, vi is a text editor, and /bin/ is a directory
[05:01] <bauer77> there are still trolls...lol
[05:01] <Ven]n> ive created a usb key with ubuntu and ext3. i then figured i wanted to split it into two partitions, so i used gparted to make 500mb of the usb key to fat32.. problem is that windows cant read that partition.. any ideas?
[05:01] <dhng> maco: thanks, I found the .Trash-0 directory and deleted it
[05:01] <jsoftw> Ahh right
[05:01] <Omoikane> I turned on the computer yesterday only to have it ask for my password over and over again. The password is correct and I can log in via tty cmd ln but I really need to log via the gui. Any ideas?
[05:01] <Flannel> owh: In the future, stop by #ubuntu-ops and let us know theres people causing trouble
[05:01] <owh> dhng: By deleting it, you removed any chance of recovering any files that were in it.
[05:01] <Dryanta> bauer77: you mean like the dudes who hang out under bridges that are unsavory and collect tolls with riddles and the like?
[05:02] <Dryanta> and from time to time eat children?
[05:02] <bauer77> yea those Dryanta

[05:02] <Dryanta> he is nice
[05:03] <Guest32563> Oh... crap... when I tried to move that folder, it gave me this " cp: omitting directory `/home/titan/.pystromo'" error and now I don't have that directory I was trying to move anymore. Any help please? I need the files that were in that folder back.

[05:07] <Guest32563> maco, I don't understand
[05:07] <maco> Guest32563: cp is for single files. to copy a directory *and everything in it* you need "cp -r"
[05:08] <Guest32563> oh ok
[05:08] <croddy> RHorse, thanks, i am on 2.8.6, i'll build the later version

[05:13] <bauer77> sorry I am feeling fresh tonight
[05:13] <fluffycloud12345> it happens
[05:13] <maco> fluffycloud12345: requires LPIC-1 first
[05:13] <upgrdman> when i use my scroll wheel on my desktop it switches my workspace. i want to disable this, and found a post of the forums saying to go to "ccsm -> viewport switcher -> actions -> desktop-based viewport switching -> move next & move prev" ... where is ccsm??
[05:13] <maco> fluffycloud12345: i missed the chance at getting LPIC-1 this weekend because i overslept :(
[05:14] <fluffycloud12345> one sec
[05:14] <maco> upgrdman: its compizconfig-settings-manager ...install it if you dont have it
[05:14] <kr00l> I need help mounting an image file
[05:15] <Halycon> Does anyone know how to change the default soundcard I am trying to use a Plantronics USB Headset and the sound comes out of my regular speakers and also the recording doesn't work
[05:15] <upgrdman> maco: thanks
[05:15] <dhng> how do I generate a new xorg.conf file?
[05:15] <maco> Halycon: the volume applet should let you choose
[05:16] <tarelerulz> Banshee is great.  It does  videos and music  library management . You can search your movies like you would songs .  The play back is bit bugy ,but you can get it to work.
[05:16] <crimsun> maco: s/volume applet/sound control center applet/
[05:17] <Halycon> maco: I am not quite sure what to set everything too
[05:17] <maco> crimsun: s/volume applet/the speaker button on the panel thingy/
[05:18] <Halycon> maco: I tried to change it to the plantroincs thing
[05:18] <Halycon> and it still didnt work
[05:18] <dhng> if my xorg.conf file is messed up, how do I generate a new file?
[05:18] <zoid01> just did some updates, new kernel.. poof, no more wireless. device eth1 not found
[05:18] <crimsun> Halycon: if you're using pulseaudio, then install pavucontrol, and use that.
[05:18] <wall-e> chubbz?
[05:18] <genii> dhng: If you remove or rename it a new one should be created
[05:19] <Halycon> zoid01: that happend to me once
[05:19] <fluffycloud12345> Maco: sorry about that, I had a phone call. So you need LPIC-1 before you can test for UCP?
[05:19] <Halycon> I think I just did that update as well
[05:19] <maco> fluffycloud12345: yes. LPIC is a distro-agnostic junior sysadmin-level exam
[05:19] <zoid01> Halycon: its iwl3945 so problematic anyway, but for the device to not even be recognized is a little wacky
[05:19] <maco> fluffycloud12345: er, LPIC-1 is junior sysadmin level
[05:20] <wall-e> i just successfully installed ubuntu. the problem is that i am not about to establish a network connection on the desktop directly attached to a router. How can i get network connection on the desktop??
[05:20] <maco> fluffycloud12345: -2 is intermediate/senior sysadmin, and 3 is expert in a particular field
[05:20] <zoid01> tho it shows up in lspci...
[05:20] <Halycon> crimsun: how do I tell if I am using pulseaudio. I saw some stuff for it but there is ALSA and a whole bunch of other stuff, currently I am playing music in Rhythmbox and it is coming from my speakers
[05:20] <wall-e> i just successfully installed ubuntu. the problem is that i am not able to establish a network connection on the desktop directly attached to a router. How can i get network connection on the desktop??
[05:20] <ubuntu_todd> how to set  	set the focus policy to "focus follows mouse"?
[05:20] <maco> !patience | wall-e
[05:21] <crimsun> Halycon: in a Terminal, type:  pgrep -c -x pulseaudio
[05:21] <wall-e> ok sry
[05:21] <crimsun> Halycon: tell me what number is printed
[05:21] <wall-e> i just successfully installed ubuntu. the problem is that i am not able to establish a network connection on the desktop directly attached to a router. How can i get network connection on the desktop?
[05:21] <fluffycloud12345> Maco: thats awesome... I did not know about that.... So LPIC-1 is needed b4 you test Ubuntu 199 and become Ubuntu Certified Professional? Sorry to sound redundant but I am not familiar with this exam schedule.
[05:21] <DCPom> wall-e, DUDE
[05:22] <wall-e> im just putting the question out there if anyone wants to read
[05:22] <wall-e> relax
[05:22] <wall-e> i am just waiting
[05:22] <Halycon> crimsun: the number one is printed
[05:22] <maco> fluffycloud12345: right. lpic-1 is two tests for 1 cert. there are about 18 topics covered, i think
[05:22] <Halycon> pgrep
[05:22] <Halycon> woops
[05:22] <DCPom> you aren't, you repeated it 3 times in 3 minutes
[05:22] <wall-e> oh k
[05:22] <crimsun> Halycon: then you're using it, so you probably want to install pavucontrol
[05:22] <fluffycloud12345> Maco: where could I get study material on it?
[05:22] <croddy> wall-e, could you repeat what you said three times earlier please? my xchat is highlighting it for some reason, along with a lot of other things. i've changed my alert list and i would like to test to see whether it worked.
[05:22] <croddy> (i am serious)
[05:23] <maco> fluffycloud12345: lets go to PMs to stop messing up the channel
[05:23] <wall-e> do you have any info that you can help dcpom?
[05:23] <wall-e> no croddy
[05:23] <DCPom> wall-e, is it a wireless connection, and did you read the ubuntu docs on it?
[05:23] <croddy> or could someone else repeat it? i'd do it myself, but it won't highlight me
[05:24] <wall-e> dcpom my macbook is connected through wireless. the desktop computer is connected to a ethernet cable which is connected to a router.
[05:24] <DCPom> wall-e, i have the same set up
[05:24] <DCPom> wall-e, except with an ibook
[05:25] <croddy2> i can't believe it's come to this.
[05:25] <wall-e> ok dcpom, can you try and help establish a network connection on my desktop that is connected to an ethernet directly?
[05:25] <croddy2> i just successfully installed ubuntu. the problem is that i am not able to establish a network connection on the desktop directly attached to a router. How can i get network connection on the desktop?
[05:25] <croddy> problem solved
[05:25] <DCPom> !spam | croddy
[05:25] <mgutz> #merb
[05:25] <croddy> it's not spam, as i said earlier, i was testing a problem with spurious xchat highlights.
[05:25] <DCPom> wall-e, it's probably something to do with your system prefs on the macbook
[05:25] <DCPom> croddy, it IS spam, it's not related to ubuntu
[05:26] <croddy> it is, because i am running xchat on ubuntu.
[05:26] <wall-e> well my network name has a password that comes to it
[05:26] <wall-e> but the ubuntu is not on my macbook
[05:26] <wall-e> it is on the desktop
[05:26] <wall-e> connected to a ethernet
[05:26] <DCPom> wall-e, that's not important, do you want to go to a PM?
[05:26] <wall-e> yes please
[05:27] <Theeb> hello, is it possible to have the new openoffice.org 3.0 on ubuntu? because the one in add/remove is 2.4
[05:27] <ToddEDM> quick question... anyone here play COD4 on linux?
[05:28] <mroc> Theeb: well, you could wait and see if it shows up in the backports repository, or you could download and install the .deb at openoffice.org
[05:28] <x264> Hi... how do I match two or more conditions in regex? For example a sentence that contains both the words "linux" and "windows". I checked the manual but I see only an operator to match either one of the strings, but not both
[05:28] <jamesish> Theeb: you can install it from the deb files if you download them from openoffice.org, but it's better to wait for them to show up in the repos; last time I did that, I ended up actually breaking a few things on my box.
[05:28] <jamesish> x234: does the logical or operator exist in the language you're using?
[05:28] <Theeb> ya i will wait, hope it will be there soon :p
[05:29] <Theeb> when did the 3.0 come out?
[05:29] <jamesish> A couple of days ago
[05:30] <x264> jamesish, I'm not sure
[05:30] <jamesish> x264: what are you writing this in?
[05:32] <RHorse> wow, i've never seen the group get so slow. let me savor the moment!
[05:32] <x264> jamesish: Uh.. no language in particular.. I was reading about regex and didn't see an AND operator, which seemed strange
[05:32] <wartalke1> when i use aireplay-ng -9 wlan0, system freeze. my wireless driver is iwl3945, help
[05:33] <jamesish> x264: I think it's just the normal | that'll do it. Try it out somewhere.
[05:33] <x264> jamesish: I tried | in a program that tests Regex expressions. It matches either one of the strings, not both
[05:34] <wall-e> rhorse
[05:34] <wall-e> rhorse i got it installed successfully
[05:34] <wall-e> thanks for ur help earlier
[05:34] <wall-e> right now im dealing with the network connection, i am not able to establish it rhorse
[05:34] <jamesish> Oh, you wanted AND, sorry. I'm apparently blind.
[05:34] <RHorse> ah, that's sometimes a rough one, wall-e
[05:34] <x264> yeah, AND
[05:35] <wall-e> ya ...can you help me with that rhorse/
[05:35] <wall-e> ?
[05:35] <CRASH69> wich was the command to see free HD space and such?
[05:35] <marupa_> Here's a stumper...I had five drives in my desktop a little while ago, one wasn't working (tick of death) but was still being powered.  Just had unplugged the sata leading to it.  I have a 500w thermaltake powersupply.  I take out the bad drive and add another, for a total of six working drives.  I have added one fan and a fan controller.  When I boot up everything seems normal, but I seem to be experiencing intermittent lag on X.  I'm not
[05:35] <marupa_> sure what's causing it.  Any suggestions?
[05:35] <RHorse> well, I'm a recovering newbie myself, but willing to try....
[05:37] <wall-e> i just successfully installed ubuntu. the problem is that i am not able to establish a network connection on the desktop directly attached to a router. How can i get network connection on the desktop??
[05:37] <RHorse> Is it a wireless, wall-e ?
[05:38] <wall-e> no
[05:38] <wall-e> can i pm u rhorse?
[05:38] <RHorse> wall-e, sure
[05:38] <marupa_> Any ideas?
[05:39] <bro_bi> #dalnet
[05:39] <SeeknDestroy> OK folks... trying to run Wine with various programs, and also ies4linux installation... it seems everything I run with Wine is killing X-server and forcing me to re-login.... googling on the issue says to reinstall latest nvidia driver... I'd do that, but this comp has built-in Intel graphics
[05:40] <DCPom> marupa_, i can't answer your question, but I'm confused with your math. 5 drives - 1 bad one = 4 plus 1 good one = 6?
[05:40] <marupa_> DCPom, I added two drives.
[05:40] <DCPom> ah
[05:41] <wartalke1> RHorse: yes
[05:42] <marupa_> Is there any way to check voltages of everything?  Drives, GPU, CPU, etc?
[05:42] <maco> marupa_: voltmeter?
[05:42] <marupa_> maco, Software.
[05:42] <maco> marupa_: oh.
[05:42] <maco> marupa_: didnt think that was possible
[05:44] <DCPom> marupa_, apt-cache search volt  <--though i can't reccommend the best one...
[05:44] <marupa_> DCPom, I'll check
[05:44] <zasuga> In Ubuntu 8.08,what file controls the screensaver?  I picked "molecule" but I have video card issues and it's locking up everything now.  If I could delete the "molecule" selection, that would be great.
[05:44] <SeeknDestroy> 2nd time... trying to run Wine with various programs, and also ies4linux installation... it seems everything I run with Wine is killing X-server and forcing me to re-login.... googling on the issue says to reinstall latest nvidia driver... I'd do that, but this comp has built-in Intel graphics
[05:45] <DCPom> marupa_, i do like the looks of libsensor3 and 4
[05:46] <marupa_> DCPom, those are just libraries though
[05:48] <wartalke1> how to extract xxxx.bz2, not .tar.bz2
[05:48] <crdlb> wartalke1: bunzip2
[05:49] <bruenig> come on now
[05:49] <wartalke1> crdlb:thanks
[05:49] <marupa_> ...that was wierd.
[05:50] <travisivart> what's the best way to setup iso mounting with nautilus? i saw a couple of scripts that could be used, is there a more streamlined recent way? (i'm not opposed to the script method, just if there's something easier i'm interested)
[05:52] <SeeknDestroy> 3rd time... trying to run Wine with various programs, and also ies4linux installation... it seems everything I run with Wine is killing X-server and forcing me to re-login.... googling on the issue says to reinstall latest nvidia driver... I'd do that, but this comp has built-in Intel graphics
[05:52] <wartalke1> give me an address, for the linux kernel 2.6.27, thanks
[05:52] <goldmetal> which software will allow me to remote into my ubunut box with gui interface?
[05:52] <whileimhere> hi can anyone tell me how to improve my wireless signal? Ever since I did the 8.04 to 8.10 upgrade my signal meter has says i get nothing more than 2 o four bars. I had 3 or four of four bars before the upgrade.
[05:52] <SeeknDestroy> Ubuntu version has nothing to do with wireless signal strength
[05:52] <microchipv420> heys guys, i need help sorting out a file association issue. it is in kubuntu, and i know, i know, but i cant get an answer in the kubuntu channel, can someone help me out?
[05:52] <SeeknDestroy> PErhaps a different algorhythm in how to display your connection strength
[05:53] <marupa_> OK, that was really weird.
[05:53] <Ven]n> ive created a usb key with ubuntu and ext3. i then figured i wanted to split it into two partitions, so i used gparted to make 500mb of the usb key to fat32.. problem is that windows cant read that partition.. any ideas?
[05:53] <SeeknDestroy> Look at the percentages, not the bars... try adjusting antennae as well, but different OS/version has on impact on signal strength
[05:53] <whileimhere> SeeknDestroy I seem to get a weaker signal and the only change is the os not the hardware.
[05:53] <DCPom> SeeknDestroy, lol
[05:53] <marupa_> I hear one of my fans shut down to very low speed, and all of a sudden, it doesn't lag any more, but my heat's still going down....what the heck?
[05:54] <SeeknDestroy> whileimhere, signal strength, percentage... try in terminal "iwlist ath0 scan"... shows signal strength in decibels... I assure ya, your signal has not changed and is only being displayed differently
[05:55] <thomasite> Hello.
[05:55] <bro_bi> #dalnet
[05:55] <whileimhere> SeeknDestroy I can see that it has changed when I download files.
[05:55] <SeeknDestroy> Ven]n, easy route : clear both partitions, create *one* partition that's fat or fat32 that can be read by both linux and windows = no more problems
[05:55] <microchipv420> heys guys, i need help sorting out a file association issue. it is in kubuntu, and i cant get an answer in the kubuntu channel, can someone help me out?
[05:55] <thomasite> Recently I installed Eclipse into my laptop. But when I looked for it in the Applications menu, I couldn't find it. How do I add it there?
[05:58] <diskin> thomasite, system -> preferences -> main menu -> new item
[05:58] <Reaverbot> Hello, I need helo.
[05:58] <Reaverbot> help
[05:58] <Reaverbot> Someone could help me with a .ecm file
[05:58] <jim_p> good morning
[05:59] <DCPom> !someone | Reaverbot
[05:59] <thomasite> Thanks!
[05:59] <thomasite> :)
[06:00] <DCPom> !private > Reaverbot
[06:01] <n-iCe> hello I hope someone could help me here:
[06:01] <n-iCe> hello I really need help, login as root, there is a proccess called: sshd: mazatlan@ttyp0 , and when someone tried to login via  ssh appears, this:
[06:01] <AnthraxDream> How do I switch my default sound to a usb device?
[06:01] <n-iCe> PTY allocation request failed on channel 0 and stdin: is not a tty
[06:01] <n-iCe> Once I kill that proccess, works, why? and how can I solve it
[06:02] <n-iCe> is getting me crazy
[06:02] <Reaverbot> How I can transform .ecm files to .iso or .bin files?
[06:03] <chmac> `firefox -safe-mode` produces nothing in a terminal, and no windows open. Any suggestions?
[06:03] <chmac> `firefox -h` or `firefox -v` produce the usual output
[06:04] <jim_p> chmac: double dash. firefox --safe-mode
[06:04] <chmac> jim_p: Not according to `firefox -h`, but it doesn't make any difference :)
[06:04] <DCPom> jim_p, single dash works in my terminal
[06:05] <chmac> Both work on Firefox I believe
[06:05] <losher> Reaverbot: I googled it and found http://www.neillcorlett.com/ecm/. Looks like you need to download and compile ecm, or run it on windows
[06:05] <jim_p> chmac: firefox must be also compiled with the safe mode option to work. to have a look, open firefox and go to about:buildbonfig
[06:05] <DCPom> chmac, try a killall firefox first
[06:05] <chmac> Reaverbot: You PM'ing me? What for?
[06:05] <jim_p> DCPom: i need double
[06:05] <chmac> DCPom: Yeah, did that
[06:05] <AnthraxDream> How do I switch my default sound to a usb device?
[06:06] <DCPom> jim_p, PARADOX ;)
[06:06] <chmac> I'm guessing I could reboot to resolve, but that seems oh so very Windbloze! ;)
[06:06] <jim_p> DCPom: hahahahhaha
[06:06] <Reaverbot> I am PM'ing you for a question about .ecm files
[06:06] <jim_p> AnthraxDream: what is that  usb device?
[06:06] <chmac> Reaverbot: Ok, probably better to ask on the appropriate channel
[06:06] <chmac> Off the top of my head, I know nothing about .ecm files... :(
[06:06] <n-iCe> 00:02 < n-iCe> hello I really need help, login as root, there is a proccess called: sshd: mazatlan@ttyp0 , and when someone tried to login via  ssh appears,  this:
[06:07] <n-iCe> 00:02 < n-iCe> PTY allocation request failed on channel 0 and stdin: is not a tty
[06:07] <Reaverbot> I am a rookie here, where is the channel?
[06:07] <n-iCe> 00:02 < n-iCe> Once I kill that proccess, works, why? and how can I solve it
[06:07] <n-iCe> 00:02 < n-iCe> is getting me crazy
[06:07] <chmac> Ok, here's a thought, and it might be nonsense, but could Firefox not like large pids?
[06:07] <chmac> Mine are up around 28000+
[06:07] <DCPom> chmac, i don't think that would matter?
[06:07] <wartalke1> how to use patch-2.6.27, for the linux kernel, i am newer
[06:08] <chmac> DCPom: I'd guess not, but I just have a sneaking suspicion for some reason...
[06:08] <chmac> Sounds like witchcraft to me :)
[06:08] <chmac> reboot, brb
[06:08] <thomasite> Problem: Recently, Firefox has been closing itself. :(
[06:09] <r2s1> what is the easiest way to lock my firefox for certain websites?
[06:09] <sadpanda> how can i use sysctl to get my cpu temp?
[06:09] <r2s1> or controlling which site allowed to be browsed?
[06:10] <jim_p> r2s1: depending on how much they are, /etc/hosts
[06:11] <jim_p> *how many
[06:12] <r2s1>  jim_p: is there any way I can incorporate like those dansguardian with simple steps?
[06:12] <chmac> It was a system problem, new windows wouldn't open. Weird. I click the shut down icon on the task bar, no response.
[06:12] <jim_p> r2s1: what is dansguardian?
[06:13] <chmac> Then my menus lock up, my task bar locks up, log in / out probably would have resolved it
[06:14] <r2s1> jim_p: well its like a proxy server to filter content to be viewed or controlling them.. we use this in our gateway in office
[06:14] <r2s1> but at home I wish there is for a single pc
[06:15] <jim_p> r2s1: cant you configure it for a single pc?
[06:18] <Lartza_> Hello, I can't get Java to work. Firefox says additional plugins required, but i have gcjwebplugin and gcj installed
[06:19] <r2s1> jim_p: I could but.. it take so much resources
[06:19] <ToddEDM> anyone here use ubuntu ultimate?
[06:19] <DCPom> !ultimate
[06:20] <billybigrigger> if i were to go install vmware what are the differences between server and workstation? i will be installing on a dual core laptop with 4g ram, and will be putting windows xp on it, am i better off with vmware server 2 or should i go with workstation? i only really need to run skype and my wireless 3g usb modem
[06:20] <crweb> i can't get my files on my nfs share to stop being nobody:nogroup owner ship.  /home/user *(rw,sync)
[06:20] <billybigrigger> oh i have hardy install atm
[06:21] <Lartza_> Hello, I can't get Java to work. Firefox says additional plugins required, but i have gcjwebplugin and gcj installed
[06:21] <jim_p> r2s1: i cant find something that has a gui. all i found was moblock
[06:22] <Ven]n> ive created a usb key with ubuntu and ext3. i then figured i wanted to split it into two partitions, so i used gparted to make 500mb of the usb key to fat32.. problem is that windows cant read that partition.. any ideas?
[06:23] <tarelerulz> jim_p look up ip blocking on ubuntu in google and I will find ipblock  or iplist as it is called for Ubuntu . It is an ipblocking program with a great gui on it .  Better then moblock to me
[06:23] <AllNewToMe> What's the cmd to check if my firewall is on please?
[06:24] <DCPom> is there a way to check recently installed packages>
[06:24] <DCPom> specifically recently updated?
[06:25] <AllNewToMe> Anyone know how to tell if my firewall is on?
[06:25] <jim_p> DCPom: sudo cat /var/log/dpkg.log | tail
[06:25] <zjkuipc> 大家好啊
[06:26] <Lartza_> Hello, I can't get Java to work. Firefox says additional plugins required, but i have gcjwebplugin and gcj installed
[06:26] <jim_p> AllNewToMe: the firewall is on. i cant remember the command that checks
[06:26] <jim_p> Lartza_: you need suns java
[06:26] <zjkuipc> 你们都用英语聊天吗？
[06:26] <AllNewToMe> Does anyone else know?
[06:26] <Lartza_> jim_p: i need java
[06:27] <tarelerulz> Jim_P : Sorry I did not make that clearer .  What you need to do is  put " ip blocking on Ubuntu" into google's search box and it will come up with iplist which is the name of an ip blocking program . It has great gui and it is easy  to use .  It is better then mobock with a gui .
[06:27] <Lartza_> i installed gcj-java-compat and gcjwebplugin(from firefox) and it complains about missing plugins
[06:27] <jim_p> Lartza_: install suns java, thats what firefox wants
[06:27] <jim_p> !java
[06:27] <Lartza_> but it should wokr with gcj too!
[06:28] <AllNewToMe> Anyone know how to tell if your firewall is on please?
[06:28] <Lartza_> AllNewToMe: In default i think it's not
[06:28] <jim_p> tarelerulz: the program is not for me. and the guy wants to block certain sites
[06:28] <AllNewToMe> Thats no help at all, thanks??
[06:28] <Lartza_> AllNewToMe: or something like that, ubuntu's firewall is tricky to congfigure
[06:29] <Lartza_> why do oyu need to know?
[06:29] <AllNewToMe> That doesnt help either??
[06:29] <Lartza_> why do you need to know?
[06:29] <AllNewToMe> because I dont know if the firewall is on or not!?
[06:29] <wartalke1> zjkuipc: ubuntu-cn
[06:30] <Lartza_> Does that matter???
[06:30] <Lartza_> i dont know if mine is on or not
[06:31] <tarelerulz> jim_p I hope it helps him.  I had hard time find ip blocking program that are easy to use .  Most the time  I would get told about firewalls or something like that .   Peer Gardian is good program ,but not for Linux .  Moblock is as good and for Linux . Iplist is better then moblock and easy gui to feature out.
[06:32] <DCPom> is there a way to revert to an old version of a package?
[06:32] <Lartza_> DCPom: yes
[06:32] <jim_p> tarelerulz: thanks
[06:32] <DCPom> :) long answer?
[06:33] <Lartza_> maybe
[06:33] <Lartza_> I know the synpatic way not command line
[06:33] <jim_p> DCPom: what package?
[06:33] <DCPom> jim_p, java, i think there's a problem with the new updates
[06:33] <Lartza_> select package from synaptic then go: Package > force version
[06:33] <DCPom> jim_p, so that's sun-java-jre sun-java-plugin, etc
[06:34] <Lartza_> How do i get my java to work? i have gcj installed, then firefox begs the missing plugins i chose gcj it installed gcjwebplugin and still begs missing plugin if i choose gcj from firefox again says gcjwebplugin already installed and then the success screen
[06:34] <kr00l> can someone help me fix recordMyDesktop?
[06:34] <jim_p> DCPom: have a look in here/var/cache/apt/archives/
[06:35] <Lartza_> is it true all prots blocked on ubuntu default?
[06:36] <Lartza_> but i havent needed to modify the ubuntu firewall to run apache
[06:36] <AllNewToMe>  If my firewall is running should this command --> "sudo /etc/init.d/firestarter status" tell me? Thanks
[06:36] <Lartza_> no
[06:36] <Lartza_> if you dont have firestarter installed
[06:37] <marupa_> Is there any way to show VUs in Alsa?
[06:37] <Lartza_> you should get command not found
[06:37] <AllNewToMe> How do I know or find out what firewall is installed?
[06:37] <Lartza_> its the ubuntu one
[06:38] <Lartza_> iptables and ufw
[06:38] <Lartza_> i think
[06:38] <Lartza_> firestarter is graphical way to modify ubuntu's firewall
[06:38] <Hatah> Hey all, I got a query // everytime I log onto my machine, my local disk is always mounted (icon on my desktop), so I have to constantly do umount -v /dev/sda1 | anyway to perm make it unmounted?
[06:39] <Hatah> if I try and do it manually, not through console, I get "you don't have permission" never used to be like that
[06:39] <jim_p> Hatah: is it an internal drive?
[06:39] <Hatah> Ya, my laptop hdd
[06:39] <AllNewToMe> So I have know way of knowing if a firewall is running or if there is which one?
[06:39] <Lartza_> i was going to ask same
[06:40] <Bobbino> default firewall in ubuntu is iptables as far as I know
[06:40] <DCPom> !firewalol
[06:40] <DCPom> !firewall
[06:40] <Bobbino> and you can get something like Firestarter so you have a gui interface for it...
[06:40] <Bobbino> meh ;)
[06:40] <DCPom> look at bobbino, with him we don't even need this old bot
[06:40] <ubuntoRoxx> I want to install sshfs, so I go to http://fuse.sourceforge.net/ and download the stable the release. But am I meant to compile it myself?
[06:40] <Lartza_> so what is ufw for on ubuntu then?
[06:41] <jspp_> ubuntoRoxx: nope
[06:41] <Lartza_> ubuntuRox: install it from repository?
[06:41] <jspp_> Just install sshfs and fuse-utils
[06:41] <ubuntoRoxx> jspp_: But where do I find it?
[06:41] <Bobbino> haha, no DCPom , You'll still need the bot... I've only had ubuntu a week... Only knew about the firewall as I had to do some stuff on it for myself :P
[06:41] <jspp_> It's in the repos
[06:42] <DCPom> heh
[06:42] <jspp_> ubuntoRoxx:use apt-get or synaptic
[06:42] <DCPom> Lartza_, thanks your thing worked...at least my java is working now
[06:42] <ubuntoRoxx> jspp_: I did a search for fuse in my synaptic packet manager.....But a lot of things show up
[06:42] <Lartza_> my isnt :(
[06:42] <Lartza_> DCPom: well not in browser
[06:42] <ubuntoRoxx> jspp_: So i am not which one to choose
[06:42] <jspp_> ubuntoRoxx: just type 'apt-get install sshfs fuse-utils'
[06:43] <DCPom> Lartza_, have you done sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin?
[06:43] <AllNewToMe> I have a windoze blista machine that cant see my Ubuntu box. I get "you may need to configure your firewall settings"?  any ideas?

[06:44] <jim_p> AllNewToMe: this advice is on the windows machine? then its vistas firewall. plus you have to install samba to share files between them

[06:45] <ubuntoRoxx> jspp_: How could I ever have figured that out if it wasen't for you?
[06:45] <AllNewToMe> I have turned off the Vista FW and made sure that samba was installed. I can see all other comps on network (Win 98, XP, Mint, Debian, OpenSuse.)
[06:46] <Guest23708> ##php
[06:46] <jim_p> AllNewToMe: is samba configured?
[06:47] <AllNewToMe> Yes as I can see and interact with all others. only Vista refuses either way.

[07:05] <Lartza_> badfish: I knew installing sun java does nothing to gcj but still did and suprise! no difference on gcj
[07:05] <jay-menon> DCPom... I tried 3 different ways
[07:05] <night> can cinelerra work in opengeu
[07:05] <DCPom> Lartza_, what's the difference between gcj and legitimate java
[07:05] <night> can cinelerra work in opengeu
[07:05] <maco> jay-menon: is youtube all you need flash for? if so, try swfdec-mozilla
[07:05] <night> can cinelera work in opengeu
[07:06] <Lartza_> DCPom: gcj is open
[07:06] <PoisonArrow_> so is there no way to upgrade to the new kernel 2.6.27?
[07:06] <DCPom> i thought sun made java open recently
[07:06] <Lartza_> and this is also kinda principal thing
[07:06] <jay-menon> 1. sudo apt-get 2. Manual install 3. by installing "ubuntu restricted extras"
[07:06] <Lartza_> how do i get gcj to work in firefox???
[07:06] <badfish> i missed the gcj part
[07:07] <maco> Lartza_: why not use openjdk?
[07:07] <maco> Lartza_: its much more up to date than gcj
[07:07] <maco> Lartza_: gcj is still stuck on java 4
[07:07] <night> i installed cinelerra in opengeu
[07:07] <night> but it doesnt quite open
[07:07] <Lartza_> so openjdk?
[07:07] <Lartza_> ok
[07:08] <night> ubuntu restricted has java
[07:08] <jay-menon> Maco.. are you talking about installing Mozilla browser?
[07:08] <night> and works with youtube on firefox
[07:08] <acp_> is openjdk much stable than java(jdk)? are they the same?
[07:09] <night> so no one has used opengeu?
[07:09] <l3d> which music player is small in resource usage?
[07:10] <Lartza_> !anyone | night
[07:10] <maco> jay-menon: no, swfdec is an open source flash library, and swfdec-mozilla is the plugin for firefox.  it's not as good at random flash as adobe's is, but it works well with pulseaudio so you dont have to hack about for working audio, and it works for youtube. also doesnt auto-play flash ads, so its like flash block extension rolled in
[07:10] <night> !anyone | lartza
[07:10] <maco> acp_: openjdk works very well
[07:11] <jay-menon> Maco---Can you test www.adidas.com

[07:12] <jay-menon> DCPom currently i removed Shockwave flash player
[07:12] <acp_> maco, I'm testing a application that requires jre or jdk if you gona develop so its ok to use openjdk than the java from sun?
[07:13] <night> hello famailur with opengeu someone?
[07:13] <DCPom> jay-menon, you'll probably think this is a dumb question, but did you quit firefox after isntalling?

[07:14] <tyberion> paul68: yeah, thanks, but I guess I put the question right there
[07:14] <jay-menon> maco: is www.adidas.com working for u? its flash based site
[07:15] <paul68> tyberion and DCPOM sorry my mistake

[07:18] <andresmh> maco: by the way, how do i configure pidgin so it doesn't show the notifications about people entering/laving the room?

[07:20] <andresmh> maco: ah, yeah, i am using for irc
[07:20] <maco> andresmh: pidgin's a sorta half-arsed IRC client
[07:20] <andresmh> i'll check out xchat, i just hate having to add yet another app
[07:21] <andresmh> maco: i was also using firefox's irc
