[07:08] <nickrud> gwark, sudo passwd root , if you really need one

[07:09] <mikelinux> pqx how can i open any file with .exe in Linux pls.................download cedega o wine
[07:09] <mustard5> !pastebin
[07:09] <wickedpuppy> !pastebin
[07:09] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl
[07:09] <mikelinux> apt-get install wine
[07:10] <nrunge> cool, one sec
[07:10] <T_A_Z> any girls in texas here?>?????????????
[07:10] <wickedpuppy> pastebin should be on the topic
[07:10] <wickedpuppy> T_A_Z, i wanna know too
[07:10] <aquafina> :)
[07:10] <mikelinux> using cedega u can play windows games based on directx too
[07:10] <mustard5> T_A_Z, you know this is a ubuntu support channel?
[07:11] <mustard5> he knows now ;)
[07:11] <wickedpuppy> you scared him away ...
[07:11] <mustard5> hehe I did :D

[07:12] <wickedpuppy> i never unzip exe in windows before ... why ya wanna unzip?
[07:12] <TotalNewb> I have a queeeeestion.
[07:13] <NoUse> TotalNewb probably best to ask it before it goes bad
[07:13] <wickedpuppy> TotalNewb, i too .. what ya question ?
[07:13] <pqx> wickedpuppy all good :0
[07:13] <pqx> :)
[07:13] <TotalNewb> When I installed it told me ubuntu didn't support serials any more. I was installing xserver I think. I was trying to adjust my display properties?
[07:13] <mustard5> nrunge, it looks like you have some misconfirgurations in there...
[07:13] <mikelinux> pqx mikelinux to unzip .exe..........................nop *deb or *rpm or *.tgz
[07:14] <Nogimics> I tried editing to the xorg.conf file to /dev/ttys0 rather than /dev/input/mice but that crash's the whole boot up
[07:14] <nrunge> mustard5, really? All the user doc wanted me to do was comment out DRI
[07:14] <mustard5> nrunge, what driver have you got loaded now?
[07:14] <mikelinux> download via bitorrent
[07:14] <nrunge> mustard5, if I do an 'lsmod' it says nvidia
[07:14] <TotalNewb> I need to make my linux system recognize my C:/ where I have windows 2000. I made a directory and my friend suggested  mount -t ntfs /hda1/mnt/win2000 but that doesn't seem to work.
[07:14] <nickrud> Nogimics, do you mean /dev/ttyS0 ?
[07:14] <mikelinux> cedega
[07:14] <mustard5> the nvidia site driver or the nvidia-glx?
[07:14] <Nogimics> yes
[07:15] <nickrud> note the capitalization?
[07:15] <mustard5> nrunge, the nvidia site driver or the nvidia-glx?
[07:15] <NoUse> !tell TotalNewb about windowsdrives
[07:15] <wickedpuppy> TotalNewb, mount -t ntfs /hda1 /mnt/win2000 .. there is a space
[07:15] <nrunge> mustard5, site driver
[07:15] <pqx> i have to open with .... mikelinux ?
[07:15] <mustard5> nrunge, k ..I remember you saying you 'removed' it earlier?
[07:15] <mikelinux> dpkg
[07:16] <mikelinux> or alien
[07:16] <mustard5> nrunge, I'm wondering whether it would be easier to rest xorg.conf and start from scratch :)
[07:16] <nrunge> mustard5, i removed the packages i added through apt
[07:16] <mustard5> nrunge, ah ok!
[07:16] <mikelinux> dpkg -i cedega
[07:16] <mustard5> nrunge, I see
[07:16] <Chizn> how do you install games with cedega?
[07:16] <Chizn> is that what point2play is for?
[07:17] <nrunge> Chizn, cedega usage: cedega [-use-pthreads <yes/no>]  [[-] -winver <version>]  [[-] -debugmsg <debug>]  [[-] -version]  [[-] -use-dos-cwd <dir>]  [[-] monitor-cdrom-eject]  <application> [application parameters]
[07:17] <mikelinux> yup
[07:17] <mikelinux> or using double clik
[07:17] <mustard5> nrunge, one tick..I am just reading the forum how to to refresh my thoughts
[07:17] <nrunge> mustard5, no rush man
[07:17] <Chizn> does cedega associate exes when installed?
[07:17] <mikelinux> point2play doesnt work 4 me
[07:18] <Danny|> bah i am trying to get flash and vids to work in firefox 1.5b2 for 2 days now.. could someone be so kind and dcc me their plugins directory? :(
[07:18] <RoseMayFears> HOW do we upgrade from Hoary to Breezy..i just edited the sources.list and did apt-get..will this be all????

[07:19] <TotalNewb> Wickedpuppy: I got, mount: special device /hda1 does not exist
[07:19] <mustard5> nrune, you installed 7667 drivers?
[07:19] <mustard5> nrunge,  you installed 7667 drivers?
[07:19] <nrunge> mustard5, nope I think they are older that that
[07:20] <nrunge> mustard5, is there a way I can check?
[07:20] <billytwowilly> man, I just ran into the retardedness of apt... Apparently one broken package incapacitates the whole package management system... Really smart debian guys because everyone lives in a perfect world where all packages come from the main repository.
[07:20] <pqx> one last question a get \system32\hal.dll error for Xp mikeLinux any solution one that one ?
[07:20] <darmou> Hi all I have a http-proxy runnirg on 8080 is there any way to find out what is running on this port.  I have shut down apache
[07:20] <mikelinux> pqx mikelinux any mirror on  cedega ?...........................download using gtk-gnutella or bittorent
[07:20] <gwark> is there a gppd site like rpmfind for debian ?
[07:20] <nrunge> mustard5, yes those are the drivers
[07:20] <mustard5> nrunge,  you could look at the package you downloaded and see what version they are
[07:20] <nrunge> mustard5, i just ran nvidia-settings
[07:21] <darmou> is an http-proxy part of the default ubuntu install?
[07:21] <mikelinux> pqx one last question a get \system32\hal.dll error for Xp mikeLinux any solution one that one ?...............audio?
[07:21] <mustard5> nrunge, k
[07:21] <nrunge> mikelinux, actually I know of a solution for that
[07:21] <alexandros> anyone got epson stylus color 600 parallel printing on a usb ?
[07:21] <mustard5> nrunge, k
[07:21] <nickrud> gwark, try apt-cache search <what you want>
[07:21] <icewt> billytwowilly: yeah, that's quite annoying. i think that there's some way to make it ignore the "broken" packages though
[07:21] <pqx> HD boot to Xp mikeLinux
[07:22] <mikelinux> ok
[07:22] <mustard5> nrunge, what error do you receive when it crashes at boot?
[07:22] <darmou> gwark use aptitude search package-name of apt-get search package
[07:23] <nrunge> mustard5, i looked at the output but I couldn't really determine anything. is that logged somewhere?
[07:23] <mustard5> nrunge, I don't know
[07:23] <nrunge> mustard5, lemme check /var/log
[07:23] <mustard5> nrunge, I can tell you what I would do....I don't know whether its the right thing to do though.....
[07:23] <nrunge> mustard5, what
[07:24] <mustard5> nrunge, I would do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and do the configuration again...
[07:24] <nrunge> mustard5, its worth a try
[07:24] <mustard5> nrunge, choose defaults for most options
[07:24] <mikelinux> skype
[07:24] <nrunge> mustard5, I assume I cant do that while running X :]
[07:25] <RoseMayFears> i did the topic but i could not still upgrade to breezy whem i do a cat/etc/issue
[07:25] <mustard5> nrunge, the ones you don't know the answers too ...
[07:25] <mustard5> nrunge, as far as I know you can
[07:25] <TotalNewb> Wait! I got it! Now I have another problem. I don't have the authority to access the files I just mounted... I need to log into root or somehow change the authorities.
[07:25] <mustard5> you can always kill x first
[07:25] <nrunge> mustard5, I have configured X enough times. I have been running Linux for years. I am just new to Ubuntu. I really like it though.
[07:25] <RoseMayFears> pls help
[07:25] <electron> how can I set my system to start a ppp connection with pon as one of the first processes on system boot?
[07:26] <nrunge> mustard5, I was a hard core Debian guy. But I don't have the time to fight with my systems as much anymore :]
[07:26] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: what are you trying to do with /etc/issue?
[07:26] <mustard5> nrunge, only ever used ubuntu myself :)
[07:26] <RoseMayFears> cat it and i still see hoary
[07:26] <mustard5> nrunge, well give sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg a go I suppose :D
[07:27] <mustard5> nrunge, its my best shot ;)
[07:27] <nrunge> mustard5, sure. I have nothing to lose.
[07:27] <nrunge> mustard5, thanks for the help
[07:27] <mustard5> np
[07:27] <TotalNewb> BRB, I'm going to try logging in as Root.
[07:27] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: hmm but you upgraded anyway? (download and install some hunderd packages)
[07:27] <nickrud> RoseMayFears, what does lsb_release -a say?
[07:28] <nrunge> I have another gooder for you guys though, when I run Vmware my USB mouse is already being used by the hotplug system. I have to add usbhid to my hotplug blacklist file and use a PS2 mouse to use my printer. Is there a way to get both working?
[07:28] <mikelinux> TotalNewb Wait! I got it! Now I have another problem. I don't have the authority to access the files I just mounted... I need to log into root or somehow change the authorities...................................only root can read or modify ntfs filesystem
[07:28] <RoseMayFears> how can we tell that wehave upgraded successfully?...it is still hoary
[07:29] <mustard5> mikelinux, linux can't write to ntfs btw
[07:29] <nickrud> RoseMayFears, Knorrie asked the critial question: did you just install a few hundred new packages?
[07:29] <cmug> captive
[07:29] <nrunge> You could use captive NTFS
[07:29] <mustard5> mikelinux, with any reliability that is....
[07:29] <mikelinux> mustard5 mikelinux, linux can't write to ntfs btw.................it can
[07:29] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: if your sources.list is breezy and apt-get dist-upgrade says: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[07:29] <mustard5> :D
[07:30] <RoseMayFears> i did lsb_release....but still hoary...yes..installed hundred packages for two days..overnight..
[07:30] <nrunge> yeah, its not perfect
[07:30] <mikelinux> knoppix
[07:30] <mustard5> mikelinux, technically yes..but practically I am saying
[07:30] <nrunge> I use it at work all the time though, it has gotten much better
[07:30] <mikelinux> but if u write on ntfs probably u can do a disaster on Win
[07:31] <mustard5> mikelinux, this is my point
[07:31] <mikelinux> ok
[07:31] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: paste your sources.list and the output of apt-get dist-upgrade at pastebin.com?
[07:31] <pqx> mikelinux audio for dvd-player Yes
[07:31] <nrunge> mikelinux, what are you trying to accomplish? system recovery of some kind?
[07:31] <Chazwazza> can anyone please point me to a tutorial on how to dual-boot, at the moment i'm running WinXP
[07:32] <Knorrie> Chazwazza: just install ubuntu, while installing Grub (the bootloader) the installer will fix all for you
[07:32] <RoseMayFears> where do i find output of apg-get dist-upgrade i already close the terminal...????
[07:32] <mustard5> Chazwazza, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WindowsDualBootHowTo

[07:34] <megamind> where do i get the sample smb.conf file ?
[07:34] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: -s means: only say what you want to do, not actually doing it

[07:36] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: ok, that's the right thing, but anyhow it got stopped at some point i think

[07:36] <gwark> thanks guys
[07:37] <RoseMayFears> so that do i do????
[07:37] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: but that's ok, just do another sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, and watch what it oes

[07:41] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: o/~ right ;)
[07:41] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: now let's see if apt will get things done
[07:41] <megamind> windows machine do not requires password it just says access denied
[07:41] <dpower> megamind: what happens when you try to view the share?
[07:42] <mustard5> megamind k  just curious whether it guided you well enough
[07:42] <RoseMayFears> Knorrie, it is now 78%..so fast..but i already did see some error apt getting some files...would like to know which?
[07:42] <dpower> what is the username on the windows machine?
[07:42] <megamind> it says access denied ... you might not have permissions to use this share
[07:42] <dpower> you need to make the same username on the samba server
[07:42] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: seems most of the packages were already downloaded, but not installed
[07:42] <phil_> what's the differentce of sudo and root?
[07:42] <megamind> but i want samba act for anonymouse access basicaly
[07:43] <Myrtti> if you don't have any usernames or passwords there, use user=guest, password=
[07:43] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: yes, just paste the errors
[07:43] <mustard5> ubotu: tell phil_ about root
[07:43] <adam_r> whats the command to rename a file/folder
[07:43] <dvsdude> sudo limited user with some root privilages and root is god
[07:43] <mustard5> phil_, read the link from ubotu
[07:43] <nickrud> adam_r, mv
[07:43] <RoseMayFears> Knorrie, how do i paste the errors?
[07:43] <pqx> mikelinux Red-Hat will reconize dvd.cd-rw, and any audio divice or Ubuntu has the same propretaties
[07:43] <Marlowe> phil_ sudo gets logged to syslog
[07:43] <nickrud> for move
[07:43] <adam_r> isnt that move?
[07:43] <phil_> and admin?
[07:43] <adam_r> oh i suspose that works because you move it from one name to antoehr

[07:44] <nickrud> adam_r, yep
[07:44] <adam_r> thanks

[07:45] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: http://pastebin.com/
[07:45] <dpower>  Myrtti  if you don't have any usernames or passwords there, use user=guest, password=
[07:45] <mustard5> ubotu: tell TotalNewb about root
[07:45] <mustard5> TotalNewb, read the link from ubotu
[07:46] <nickrud> TotalNewb, log in as yourself, then use sudo to get root priviledges
[07:46] <dvsdude> TotalNewb, "sudo passwd root" will active root
[07:46] <Marlowe> TotalNewb set a root password like so "sudo passwd"
[07:46] <RoseMayFears> Knorrie, k...i already pasted it in pastebin...what nex????
[07:46] <megamind> but to chagne the password of root u still need the old password!
[07:46] <Knorrie> :) those utf-8 chinese just seems like a $#@% to me :D
[07:47] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: tell us the url
[07:47] <mustard5> megamind, root password is disabled in ubuntu default install
[07:47] <RoseMayFears> Knorrie, http://pastebin.com/413004
[07:47] <gooo> hello, i am a new here
[07:47] <Knorrie> gooo: welcome
[07:47] <pqx> all good mikelinux until I get There to download Xp again so any available download-site for Xp and I will be glad To say Thank You :)
[07:47] <megamind> but when we use sudo [command]  it requries password for root which is same as password of first user we create
[07:48] <megamind> :)
[07:48] <mustard5> megamind the root password is not the same....the user password using sudo enables you to use root
[07:48] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: hm i can download that file here
[07:48] <gooo> have a specific problem: how can i install ubuntu on notebook with NON BOOTABLE PCMCIA CD-ROM????
[07:48] <Madpilot> megamind: no, the 1st user isn't root, the 1st user just has sudo privs
[07:48] <alexandros> can someone please tell me how to log into webmin, what username and password is it looking for?
[07:49] <RoseMayFears> Knorrie, kkk..hope yu can help me sort out waht the probv is
[07:49] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: sudo apt-get update
[07:49] <megamind> oh ... thats the case ... great ...
[07:49] <nickrud> alexandros, for that, you truly need a root password
[07:49] <dpower> alexandros: whichever username and password you setup
[07:49] <megamind> so if we use sudo passwd root and change the pass in this case the root accoutn is activated !
[07:49] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: then apt-get dist-upgrade again (little chance) otherwise try another mirror
[07:49] <ddew|bofh> Hey
[07:49] <pqx> md5crypt for any password
[07:49] <awstott> webmin has a seperate password
[07:49] <nickrud> or, edit the webmin config file
[07:49] <gooo> have a specific problem: how can i install ubuntu on notebook with NON BOOTABLE PCMCIA CD-ROM????
[07:49] <awstott> I can't remeber what the default is tho
[07:49] <ddew|bofh> Anyone here running breezy on a g5?
[07:49] <dvsdude> megamind, yes
[07:49] <RocR-1> hey all
[07:50] <mustard5> !anyone
[07:50] <ubotu> I heard anyone is 90% of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and YOU decide? <hint>
[07:50] <gooo> have a specific problem: how can i install ubuntu on notebook with NON BOOTABLE PCMCIA CD-ROM???? only with a little help of my floppy
[07:50] <Knorrie> gooo: yes, we can read :) please don't do that
[07:50] <megamind> OK. my samba question isnt yet answer please tell me how do i configure samab for anonymouse access ?
[07:50] <adam_r> why is the certificate for the ubuntu wiki out of date
[07:50] <RoseMayFears> Knorrie, i did that command and here is the result at http://pastebin.com/413006
[07:50] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: nice
[07:50] <ddew|bofh> I'm having severe stability problems, I get random oopses on a powermac g5
[07:50] <Kruzr> hey guys, can someone help me decode my Apache2 logs into understanding why perl doesn't work?
[07:50] <gooo> Knorrie: ok, sorry
[07:51] <alexandros> ok, nickrub where is it located?
[07:51] <Kruzr> PHP does, but Perl won't
[07:51] <Knorrie> RoseMayFears: try sudo apt-get upgrade again, and if it failes at the same point, were gonna use another mirror server
[07:51] <Kruzr> it just sends the entire perl script to the user
[07:51] <ddew|bofh> mustard5, join the club...
[07:51] <nickrud> gooo, someone mentioned tonight that  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installation/WithFloppies?highlight=%28boot.img%29works
[07:51] <mustard5> ddew|bofh, there may be..I'm just looking
[07:52] <nickrud> alexandros, it's been too long ago for me to remember, I don't use webmin any more
[07:52] <gooo> nickurd: than u so much man!!!
[07:52] <dpower> nickrud: why use webmin in the first place?
[07:52] <adam_r> that means its not excecuting it.. have you changed your apache config files to exectute cgi and pl and enabled all directorys including /var/www to have excecutable scrips rather than just the cgi-bin
[07:53] <adam_r> Kruzr,
[07:53] <nickrud> dpower, back when I was investigating things.
[07:53] <Kruzr> adam_r: I did it with cgi-bin.  not /var/www.
[07:53] <dpower> hmm...
[07:53] <Kruzr> adam_r: I can show you my apache2.conf if you like.
[07:53] <nickrud> It showed me a lot of things I needed to know, I used it sort of as a guide to learning
[07:54] <dpower> yea but you dont learn by using webmins gui
[07:54] <mustard5> ddew|bofh, hmmm ..no luck finding one
[07:55] <Delvien> what governs cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq?
[07:55] <nickrud> nomed, but it gave me pointers to things. I used it for a month or so, if I remember correctly
[07:55] <adam_r> i havent set perl up myself yet but ive done it before in windows ads its simalar
[07:55] <Delvien> because that folder is empty now
[07:55] <ddew|bofh> mustard5, me neither :/
[07:55] <Kruzr> adam_r: can I PM it to you?
[07:55] <ddew|bofh> mustard5, you on pmac g5 as well?
[07:55] <Kruzr> (just a link, not thw whole thing)
[07:55] <dpower> ive used it myself
[07:55] <mustard5> ddew|bofh, no..just curious where the best place for you to go would be
[07:56] <mustard5> ddew|bofh, I don't see many powermac questions in here..you never know though
[07:56] <ddew|bofh> Worth a shot I guess, since the forums are pretty inactive

[08:03] <mikelinux> about 3 months
[08:03] <deFrysk> Chazwazza, 5-6 weeks usually
[08:03] <Chazwazza> k
[08:03] <Chazwazza> thanks
[08:03] <wickedpuppy> Chazwazza, i ordered about 1 month ago ...
[08:03] <Knorrie> Chazwazza: we can read, please don't repeat things
[08:03] <pqx> mikelinux from cd/dvd recovery disk hard drive  u mean?
[08:04] <deFrysk> <--holland urrup
[08:04] <sword-> hey what's going on
[08:04] <Knorrie> deFrysk: ey!
[08:04] <wickedpuppy> still not here ... lol so expected to wait :P
[08:04] <sword-> I have a question: how do I set up my root password for ubuntu
[08:04] <sword-> it did not ask me to set one up in the installation
[08:04] <adam_r> i used adsl
[08:04] <Knorrie> sword-: sudo passwd
[08:04] <sword-> i have had to run every command using sudo
[08:04] <sword-> ahh ok
[08:04] <mikelinux> pqx mikelinux from cd/dvd recovery disk hard drive  u mean? i mean do you have linux/windows on the same disk?
[08:04] <noirequus> Knorrie: please dont do that
[08:04] <sword-> Knorrie: they did that intentionally I assume?
[08:05] <nalioth> !root
[08:05] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, root is disabled in Ubuntu, you can read all about it on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[08:05] <Knorrie> nalioth: k sorry
[08:05] <pqx> Yes mikelinux , on the samedisk
[08:05] <ColD_7> i need some help on installing yamaha ymf719e-s sound card on ubuntu
[08:05] <mikelinux> ok
[08:06] <sword-> brb
[08:06] <mikelinux> if u install windows yo boot manager will be deleted
[08:06] <Kruzr> is there a way to make apt-get --purge if you've already apt-get removed?
[08:06] <mikelinux> and u will need a boot disk to use ubuntu and reinstall grub
[08:06] <deFrysk> ColD_7, if the soundcard is supported ubuntu will auto-detect it
[08:07] <ColD_7> the audio just wont work
[08:07] <wickedpuppy> Kruzr, yes ... purge will remove the config files
[08:07] <ColD_7> i when i click on the sound control, it says that i might not have an sound card configured
[08:07] <deFrysk> ColD_7, and if you are switching from an onboard card to another card just make sure to disable the build-in soundcard in your bios
[08:07] <Kruzr> wickedpuppy: sudo apt-get remove --purge gallery || Package gallery is not installed, so not removed
[08:08] <adam_r> is there any easy way to remove a entire directory and its contents including direcorys inside it from command line
[08:08] <ColD_7> i will see at it now
[08:08] <thread> Who's using x86_64 ? What do I do when something says it's missing a library when it really exists? I encountered this moments ago with quake4 looking for sdl... turns out my sdl is 64bit, and quake4 NEEDS the 32bit version. Do I need to build libraries myself and install them to /usr/local/lib32? or can I install 32bit versions of libraries somehow?
[08:08] <Knorrie> Kruzr: if it's already removed, you can also dpkg --purge it
[08:08] <deFrysk> ColD_7, good luck wit turning onboard sound off :)
[08:08] <nickrud> adam_r, rm -rf (remove force) use with extreeeeeme care
[08:08] <Madpilot> adam_r: rmdir - but read the man file first
[08:09] <Knorrie> Kruzr: that's when it shows as 'rc' in the output of dpkg -l
[08:09] <pqx> mikelinux if i install windows i will able to use ubuntu or red-hat proportional in windows ?
[08:09] <phil_> when i install *.tar.gz,it tell me that it needs zlib. and what's zlib?how install zlib?
[08:09] <alexandros> how do you remove a host from the blocked list in webmin?
[08:10] <adam_r> thanks
[08:10] <mikelinux> gueno hente pues me tengo ke ir, ha sido un placer para ustedes el haber compartido conmigo asi que se me cuidan y mantenganse en la sombra...............
[08:10] <wickedpuppy> pqx,  no ... windows doesn't read ext3 ...
[08:10] <nickrud> Kruzr, you can do it with aptitude in interactive mode pretty easily: sudo aptitude , then simply type l~c that's an ell)
[08:11] <Dersursine> Hey everyone
[08:11] <wickedpuppy> you can put a fat323 in between as a buffer so both windows and linux access to it
[08:11] <deFrysk> !es
[08:11] <ubotu> Hispanohablantes: Por favor usen #ubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[08:11] <nickrud> that will display only the configured but not installed packages, pressing shift dash will mark a package for purging
[08:11] <adam_r> i could just run nautilus as root and do this instead of using sudo at a CLI but i thought removing a directory would be easu
[08:11] <wickedpuppy> adam_r, rm -rf ?
[08:11] <wickedpuppy> what could be simpler ?
[08:12] <adam_r> oh i dindt see that message
[08:12] <wickedpuppy> adam_r, pls make sure you are in correct dir before you do rm -rf :P
[08:12] <wickedpuppy> especially if you are going to sudo it ...
[08:12] <nickrud> exteeeeeme care, adam_r
[08:12] <deFrysk> adam_r, make sure to use the correct path when using rm -rf as root (sudo
[08:13] <deFrysk> 0and what wickedpuppy said
[08:13] <Dersursine> or just use 'rm -r' and confirm the files and dir's your deleting?
[08:13] <mikelinux> shutdown -h +35
[08:13] <wickedpuppy> rm -i ... if you want to confirm the files
[08:13] <deFrysk> rm -rf is very powerful
[08:13] <wickedpuppy> i think its alias by default
[08:13] <adam_r> yeah because otherwise i might delete the entire ect directory or something
[08:13] <mikelinux> the channel will be halted in 35 minutes
[08:13] <wickedpuppy> mikelinux, +35m
[08:13] <Kruzr> thanks, whoever told me about dpkg --purge and dpkg -l
[08:13] <nickrud> did that as root once, in usr. learned my lesson
[08:14] <adam_r> isnt it just as powerful as DEL in DOS
[08:14] <wickedpuppy> adam_r, are you kidding ??
[08:14] <Knorrie> for example, *never* do things on .* is you want to act on the current directory (i once did), then you're changing ../ etc as well :P
[08:14] <Knorrie> s/is/if/
[08:14] <adam_r> well del in dos deletes whatever you tell it to right
[08:15] <adam_r> inculding full directorys
[08:15] <eno> sorry about the noob question.  I just set up a network with Ubuntu and XP (surprisingly VERY easy).  How do I share a folder on my ubuntu system that is not in my home folder (I want shared access to a data partition)?
[08:15] <adam_r> so saying c:\windows\: DEL system32
[08:15] <wickedpuppy> adam_r, suppose you want to know what ya going to delete and want to confirm .. what you do ? whats the commond in del ?
[08:16] <eno> oh there is a shared folders in admin, forget it
[08:16] <eno> thanks anyways!  I love this channel
[08:16] <adam_r> um i dunno
[08:17] <wickedpuppy> put it simply .. you can use linux without X .. just bash .. can you use windows without .. windows ? i think not
[08:18] <adam_r> well windows is installed on dos
[08:18] <adam_r> well at least not NT vairiants
[08:18] <nickrud> oh. I thought that one through, Knorrie. I've done that, just it didn't matter in my case. *whew*
[08:18] <pqx> Is anywhere a secure source to RTFM ?
[08:18] <wickedpuppy> well .. going out ... cya guys
[08:18] <adam_r> cya
[08:19] <Dersursine> Anyone see the article on /. about how to detect rootkits? I was wondering if I were to make an inventory of all the files on my system (or the important ones), and their md5/sha1 hashes, would that be a decent way to see if the files were modfied without my knowledge?
[08:19] <nickrud> Dersursine, sudo apt-get install chkrootkit , it's supposed to be reasonably up to date, I believe
[08:20] <ColD_7> help needed on installing an yamaha ymf719e-s sound card in ubuntu
[08:20] <Dersursine> will that check my windows partitions too?
[08:20] <nickrud> heh
[08:20] <pqx> ColD_7 in ubuntu u said??
[08:20] <nickrud> I don't mount windows partitions as executable, so ...
[08:21] <Dersursine> I run windows most of the time :(
[08:21] <Dersursine> My linux stuff is pretty secure, only a few ports open, and nothing important on it if I lose it
[08:21] <nickrud> I run windows for Rand McNally's maps, and that's it. a few times a month, if I plan wel
[08:21] <nickrud> *well
[08:22] <eno> ha, I guess nothing is as easy as it seems!  Windoze wants a UN/pass to access my ubuntu system, I tired mine but it didn't work.  What do I do?
[08:22] <eno> Is rand mcnally better than google maps?
[08:22] <ColD_7> pqx, ya
[08:22] <nickrud> oh yeah, it is light years better.
[08:22] <Dersursine> how did you format the username? sometimes windows is weird with domains... might have to do something like (ubtunu host name)\UN  as the username
[08:23] <litage> how can you tell logger to continue reading from a file after it reaches the EOF? (ie: wait for more data to be written to the file)
[08:23] <eno> OH, you might be right, it is doing that!
[08:23] <eno> thanks Dersursine
[08:23] <nickrud> it's actually the thomas guide map engine. very useful (printable and saveable maps)
[08:24] <Dersursine> just google for rand mcnally?
[08:24] <Nogimics> ok can anyone give me a definative tutorial on getting a Serial Mouse tow rok with ubuntu please?
[08:24] <pqx> mikelinux please help me out here it cost me more that i though to reinstall windows XP now I get that error and I do not have I boot-Disk for XP I know if I ca reinstall Windows then I can Go along withit so I say help to reinstall windows XP please .
[08:24] <nickrud> nomed, spend money buying the windows disk (a couple hundred for all of california)

[08:25] <eno> well that didn't work, I am off to rtfm myself to sleep I guess :P
[08:25] <Nogimics> Anyone?
[08:26] <eno> I always assumed it would just work Nogimics, sorry
[08:26] <Marlowe> eno: needs to be same UN/pw on both boxes
[08:26] <Nogimics> Serial mouse does not
[08:26] <eno> what do you mean?
[08:26] <Dersursine> Hrm, I just use SFTP to transfer files between my various computers. I have ubtunu running openssh-server and use filezilla as the SFTP client
[08:26] <eno> I am using my user/pass.  do I need to set up a new account?
[08:26] <Dersursine> Not the cleanest solution, but works more reliably than shared files and most windows based things...
[08:27] <adam_r> has anyone here acualy set up a webserver with php mysql and perl
[08:27] <eno> I tried to install ubuntu on the other comp, but I couldn't get into the bios to boot from cd.  as dumb as that sounds...
[08:27] <Nogimics> I have edited the xorg.conf file so the DEVICE for mouse states "/dev/ttyS0/" and Protocol "Microsoft"
[08:27] <Dersursine> Ive done Apach2/PHP4,5 and MySQL4.1
[08:27] <Marlowe> do you have the same username on doze & linux?
[08:27] <Dersursine> all custom compiled and manualy configured
[08:27] <Marlowe> pull the battery
[08:28] <adam_r> thats what i have right now, done the easy way
[08:28] <Chizn> which torrent sites do people use?
[08:28] <eno> no, they are different people computers... should I set up an account with the other name on Ubuntu?
[08:28] <Marlowe> Nogimics - remove the trailing /
[08:28] <eno> I use google to find torrents.
[08:28] <Marlowe> should be "/dev/ttyS0"
[08:28] <Nogimics> sorry there was no trailing /
[08:28] <Nogimics> me just tired making typos
[08:28] <thread> Who's using x86_64 ? What do I do when something says it's missing a library when it really exists? I encountered this moments ago with quake4 looking for sdl... turns out my sdl is 64bit, and quake4 NEEDS the 32bit version. Do I need to build libraries myself and install them to /usr/local/lib32? or can I install 32bit versions of libraries somehow?
[08:29] <Chizn> eno, first ive heard that one
[08:29] <Chizn> eno, what if you dont know what you want, but wanna look in a directory instead?
[08:29] <Marlowe> Nogimics - actually, on my box it's "/dev/input/mice"
[08:30] <eno> are you looking for distros, Chizn?
[08:30] <Nogimics> yes thats for a normal mouse
[08:30] <Nogimics> Im trying to use Serial
[08:30] <Nogimics> mine was set to what yours is
[08:30] <Nogimics> but did not work
[08:30] <Nogimics> so tried showing it the Serial Port
[08:30] <ColD_7> can someone guide me step by step to install a yamaha ymf719e-s sound card in ubuntu?
[08:30] <Nogimics> ttyS0
[08:30] <eno> cause if not, I have found that gnut is a good place to find torrents
[08:31] <Marlowe> is it a serial mouse or PS2 ?
[08:31] <brownie17> i upgraded to breezy and now limewire isn't running
[08:31] <eno> ColD_7, does sound work at all?
[08:31] <ColD_7> no
[08:31] <Nogimics> Serial
[08:31] <ColD_7> the sound card is not even configured i think
[08:31] <eno> ColD_7, don't ask me then :P
[08:31] <xy77> I have the following problem: the udev stuff loads after gdm is started, which results in a broken gdm start most of the time. Does anyone know something about this issue?
[08:31] <Nogimics> infact its a PS2 with a converter on it to Serial
[08:32] <nickrud> http://www.x.org/X11R6.8.2/doc/mouse4.html is the 'definitive' help :)
[08:32] <eno> how old is your comp, Nogimics :P?
[08:32] <Nogimics> as this old box does not have ps2 port
[08:32] <Nogimics> :P
[08:32] <brownie17> does anyone know why upgrading to breezy would stop limewire running?
[08:32] <ColD_7> is there anyone who is using yamaha ymf719e-s sound card in ubuntu
[08:32] <eno> sorry, Brownie
[08:32] <ColD_7> i think it should be an old driver alreday

[08:41] <Chizn> ColD_7, spend 10bucks on a new soundcard
[08:42] <Alister> hello
[08:42] <Chizn> preferably soundblaster or something known
[08:42] <Chizn> i dont believe it will work on ubuntu otherwise, lol
[08:42] <brownie17> Nogimics, buying a card that has ps/2 plugs on it will be cheap, and fairly easy to find
[08:42] <brownie17> Nogimics, but you might have to order it in
[08:42] <sword> hey again
[08:42] <Chizn> i just did a search on it and i noticed some tumbleweed fly past
[08:42] <sword> has anyone had a problem with some of the older repositories?
[08:42] <Nogimics> Kinda defeats the point
[08:42] <Chizn> your card is ancient, infact it is ISA Legacy..
[08:42] <sword> i ran an apt-get update and ive had some 404 error
[08:42] <sword> s
[08:43] <sword> Failed to fetch http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/breezy-backports/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz  404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]
[08:43] <Chizn> get a pci one maaaan

[08:43] <sword> and I am trying to get mplayer and some plugins for irefox
[08:43] <nickrud> SWAT_, see the topic

[08:43] <nickrud> sword, I mean ^^^
[08:43] <Nogimics> this is a spare machine , just wanted to play about with a linux distro
[08:44] <RoseMayFears> sword, I also have same experience i remove it...from sources.list
[08:44] <Nogimics> But it wont work with a serial mouse thats bad
[08:44] <brownie17> Nogimics, i know the feeling. sometimes i might spend hours trying to fix a really small thing, that doesn't really need fixing, just because it is possible to fix it.
[08:44] <Nogimics> its 7:40am, ive been up all night lol
[08:44] <brownie17> Nogimics, like once ihad a whim to play a game i had for windows, i spent nearly three hours trying to configure wine, i got it. and then i got in, and did't even end up playing one game.
[08:44] <RoseMayFears> Guys...i need help how do i install an EPSON LX-300+ printer into my breezy????
[08:44] <sword> hmm okay RoseMayFears

[08:45] <sword> nickrud, you were referring to the mirrors ?
[08:45] <Nogimics> Bit shit that a Linux distro does not work with a serial mouse tho :(
[08:46] <Dersursine> rosemayfears, maybe check linuxprinting.org
[08:46] <RoseMayFears> sword, I meant, i have that expeirnce during my hoary backports..but im not sure of breezy...fyi.

[08:46] <sword> ohhh!
[08:46] <sword> nickrud, are there any ubuntu packages for mplayer
[08:46] <nickrud> sword, you can get mplayer from the multiverse repository
[08:46] <sword> and mozilla-firefox plugins?
[08:47] <nickrud> mozilla-mplayer for video
[08:47] <[c11] Angel> when I try to install ubuntu, all the files are copied, all goes well untill the apc configuring service stops at 25%
[08:47] <[c11] Angel> is that normal ?
[08:47] <[c11] Angel> it takes a while until the service configures?
[08:47] <adam_r> serial mice are so 90's
[08:47] <nickrud> and, /msg ubotu javadeb for java
[08:47] <brownie17> iceman, possible reason: really slow internet(not likely) firewall, NAT (kinda the same thing) or bad server

[08:47] <[c11] Angel> tryed
[08:48] <[c11] Angel> serial mouse
[08:48] <sword> i don't think my default apt.sources point to a place where mozilla-mplayer is at
[08:48] <brownie17> [c11] Angel, no, it is  "tried"
[08:48] <[c11] Angel> they need to be configured mannualy ...
[08:48] <brownie17> sword, then you need to add the repos
[08:48] <[c11] Angel> :)
[08:48] <nickrud> sword, go to http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic for good sources
[08:48] <iceman> brownie17 cant be Internet .. on Wireless, 512 meg ... no all servers freese same way ... maybe firewall issues , now who can help me fix ..

[08:52] <eno> wow, THE NETWORK WORKS!  thanks!
[08:52] <Dersursine> Serial Mouse... Cool, retro, I want one *jumps on bandwagon*
[08:52] <nickrud> lol
[08:52] <[c11] Angel> noboady can help me ?
[08:53] <Mabus> How do I find out what is causing my firefox to timeout when connecting to myip/index.html when apache is turned on?
[08:53] <nickrud> [c11] Angel, I'd *guess* a bad burn
[08:53] <Dersursine> Hrm, I know nothing about linux, but I can tell you that i've never had good luck with converter thingies like that.
[08:53] <iceman> is there a easy command line to Uninstall Enemy Terratory
[08:53] <RoseMayFears> Hi...i downloaded some .ppd file supposed driver of epson lx-300+, where do i put this file so that i can then print???
[08:54] <qsrv> hi
[08:54] <brownie17> iceman, if it is NAT, you will have to port forward. this website can help you "www.portforward.com" but apart from that, it depends on your firewall to how to unblock it. have you tried network games?
[08:54] <nickrud> Nogimics, maybe Providence wants you to be a keyboard jockey :)
[08:54] <nickrud> Nogimics, are you sure your serial port works?
[08:55] <Mabus> !apache
[08:55] <ubotu> [apache]  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApacheMySQLPHP or, for Ubuntu server information, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/installation-custom
[08:55] <Dersursine> mice are overeated... everyone thinks its cool that I dun need one (at least in windows)
[08:55] <Chizn> !modprobe
[08:55] <ubotu> Chizn: I don't know, could you explain it?
[08:55] <Chizn> !cli
[08:55] <ubotu> well, cli is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands or http://www.linuxcommand.org/
[08:55] <thread> Who's using x86_64 ? What do I do when something says it's missing a library when it really exists? I encountered this moments ago with quake4 looking for sdl... turns out my sdl is 64bit, and quake4 NEEDS the 32bit version. Do I need to build libraries myself and install them to /usr/local/lib32? or can I install 32bit versions of libraries somehow?
[08:56] <Nogimics> Someone must know how to get a serial mouse working under ubuntu?
[08:56] <brownie17> Seveas, does the "seveas" ubuntu repo mentioned in "source-o-matic" have any affiliation with you?
[08:56] <thread> Dersursine: sorry :x that was the last one tonight.. I'm goin to bed
[08:56] <thread> last shot at my question
[08:56] <Dersursine> lol, no prob.
[08:56] <brownie17> Dersursine, what do you mean "don't need one"? there aren't shortcuts for everything!
[08:56] <nickrud> brownie17, that is his work
[08:56] <iceman> ok, well. now a way to first uninstall.. i want to clean it up
[08:56] <onispawn> does anyone know of a good website that talks about configureing wireless in linux
[08:57] <qsrv> does anyone know why the free pascal compiler is not in the repositories?
[08:57] <iceman> what uninstall command
[08:57] <rob_p> Nogimics:  A ps2 or USB mouse won't do?
[08:57] <Mabus> !tcptraceroute
[08:57] <ubotu> Mabus: I don't know, could you explain it?
[08:57] <Dersursine> tab, alt-tab, space, return, I can do nearly anything in windows without a mouse.
[08:57] <Mabus> damn
[08:57] <brownie17> nickrud, ok
[08:57] <Nogimics> its an old spare box with only Serial
[08:57] <nickrud> it's the reason it's the only web script worth running ;)
[08:57] <Dersursine> nogimics, get a cheap usb 1.1 card and use a usb mouse?
[08:58] <Nogimics> thats bypasses the problem
[08:58] <Nogimics> if WIndows can run a Serial mouse then so should a linux distro
[08:58] <mustard5> Nogimics, perhaps you serial port is not working?  Could be an issue
[08:58] <Nogimics> Serial port is fine
[08:58] <Dersursine> heh, its easy tho >.>
[08:58] <RoseMayFears> anyone know how to install epson LX printer in breezy???
[08:58] <Nogimics> and mouse
[08:58] <Mabus> can someone tell me how I find out what is preventing my apache files to be unavailable via firefox? it times out, I was told that means I probably have a firewall, but to my knoweldge I do not
[08:58] <Nogimics> tested both
[08:59] <mustard5> Nogimics, k
[08:59] <[bw] 808y> hi
[08:59] <Mabus> !epson
[08:59] <ubotu> Mabus: I'm not sure, is it larger than a breadbox?
[08:59] <Mabus> !printer
[08:59] <ubotu> hmm... printer is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters or http://www.linuxprinting.org
[08:59] <nickrud> I have a friend with really annoying lighter. When he opens it, it keeps saying 'get 'er done'. He points it at me when I get too bogged down in details
[09:00] <Cosonic> morning  all:)
[09:00] <adam_r> where does apache get told that /var/www is where my files go?
[09:00] <Nogimics> in the http_conf file
[09:00] <Mabus> not for apache2
[09:00] <Nogimics> if I remember correctly
[09:00] <Mabus> the other conf file
[09:00] <Nogimics> been years since I ran apache
[09:00] <Mabus> in the same folder as http_conf
[09:01] <adam_r> apache2
[09:01] <Mabus> http_conf is solely for backwards compatibility
[09:01] <brownie17> nickrud, is the seveas server down?
[09:01] <Mabus> it's the other one... apache2.conf?
[09:01] <adam_r> apache2.conf
[09:01] <Mabus> yeah
[09:01] <Mabus> that's it
[09:01] <adam_r> im really confused
[09:01] <Nogimics> ill unconfuse you
[09:01] <Nogimics> do you know hwo to get a serial mouse working with ubunutu lol
[09:02] <adam_r> i want to enable CGI, mysql php and SSI are all working fine
[09:02] <Delvien> isnt the command sudo apt-get reinstall <package>
[09:02] <adam_r> yeah its called a serial to ps2 converter
[09:02] <onispawn> does anyone know why iwlist wouldnt display the possible aps to connect to?
[09:02] <rob_p> Nogimics:  Did you symlink /dev/ttyS0 with /dev/mouse?   ex: sudo ln -s /dev/ttyS0 /dev/mouse
[09:02] <bob2> onispawn: depends
[09:03] <dcatdemon> Mabus: it is in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf ... if you look.
[09:03] <Nogimics> I changed it t /dev/ttyS0
[09:03] <bob2> onispawn: if it's displaying nothing at all, perhaps your driver doesn't support scanning
[09:03] <Nogimics> didnt work
[09:03] <nickrud> brownie17, the one from the source-o-matic is active, any others, I'm not aware of
[09:03] <DShepherd> Delvien: sudo apt-get --reinstall package
[09:03] <bob2> adam_r: /etc/apache2/sites-available/default
[09:03] <bob2> adam_r: also, "grep -r /var/www /etc/apache2"
[09:03] <Mabus> dcatdemon, what?
[09:03] <brownie17> nickrud, well i copied and pasted the one from source-o-matic, and it isn't working. says no such file or directroy
[09:03] <Mabus> bob2, you're around
[09:03] <onispawn> the thing I dont understand is sometimes it does scan, but most of the time it doesnt
[09:04] <Mabus> bob2, how do I tell what is causing my firefox to time out when trying to connect to myip/index.html
[09:04] <bob2> Mabus: your network is broken, fix it
[09:04] <bob2> Mabus: the first thing you should have tried is pinging myip
[09:04] <liable> Mabus: prolly your dns
[09:04] <Mabus> bob2, I was kind of hoping for advice...
[09:04] <Mabus> pinging myip?
[09:04] <nickrud> I just did that myself, and a reload got it
[09:04] <Delvien> thanks
[09:04] <Mabus> btw, "lynx localhost" yields the right stuff
[09:04] <DShepherd> Delvien: sudo apt-get install --reinstall package (correction)
[09:04] <Delvien> Gotcha !
[09:05] <bob2> that shows apache is fine
[09:05] <Mabus> !ping
[09:05] <ubotu> Keep your fingers to yourself, mabus.
[09:05] <Mabus> !myip
[09:05] <ubotu> Mabus: Are you on ritalin?
[09:05] <bob2> wtf
[09:05] <bob2> "ping <IP_ADDRESS>"
[09:05] <Mabus> <IP_ADDRESS> being my ip right
[09:05] <nickrud> I don't actuall *use* his repository :)
[09:05] <Mabus> bob2 I'm new, was just trying to see if there were help files on what you suggested
[09:06] <Mabus> but okay I'll type that bob2
[09:06] <adam_r> ok thanks bob2 i think i know what to do now
[09:06] <adam_r> what does the grep -r /var/www /etc/apache2 thing do
[09:06] <bob2> man grep
[09:06] <bob2> grep searches for the string "/var/www" in /etc/apache2
[09:06] <adam_r> oh ok
[09:06] <Mabus> bob2, ping myip seemed to go just fine
[09:07] <antihero> can someone help me with an kubuntu question?
[09:07] <bob2> antihero: easier if you just ask...
[09:07] <Mabus> adam_r, read "man grep"
[09:07] <brownie17> Dersursine, so, what do you know about ubuntu shortcuts
[09:07] <bob2> Mabus: and "nc <IP_ADDRESS> 80", and hit enter five times
[09:07] <sH4> H i
[09:07] <adam_r> i have and am and did
[09:08] <Dersursine> Nothing, just that i think theres a thing for short cuts in preferances, and that shirt-insert is how to paste in konsole
[09:08] <Mabus> bob2, "no ports to connect to"
[09:08] <Cosonic> hi..i managed to install ubuntu breezy on my laptop..but aparently the vga drivers arent compatible..the picture ie weird..how do i fix it plz?
[09:08] <Dersursine> in ubuntu, im {ruined} without a mouse
[09:08] <bob2> Mabus: you're behind nat?
[09:08] <RoseMayFears> hey...i already did installed the EPSON LX-300+ printer in my Breezy..just get the ibm-proprinter11-ibmpro.ppd and point this as your driver. First, go to your Printer Settings menu and point the driver to this PPD file!!!!! It just printed a test page..FYI
[09:08] <antihero> ok, im dual booting my harddrive, in the partitioner for kubuntu, I resized my NFTS partition 50% and now nothing is happening, does it normally take along time to resize the partition?
[09:08] <Mabus> bob2 uh.... maybe? I don't know what nat is
[09:08] <Mabus> !nat
[09:08] <ubotu> Mabus: Syntax error in line 1
[09:09] <bob2> Mabus: you have one IP and many computers?
[09:09] <bob2> antihero: how long is long?
[09:09] <Mabus> bob2, I believe so
[09:09] <antihero> well, i havnt really been waiting all that long
[09:09] <antihero> how long does it usally take
[09:09] <Mabus> bob2, adsl modem connected to router, router connected to this box by wire, wirelessly connected to an xp machine
[09:10] <bob2> Mabus: the router and/or modem need to be configured to forward port 80 in
[09:10] <bob2> antihero: depends on your hardware
[09:10] <Mabus> hmmm
[09:10] <Mabus> bob2, I will try looking at the advanced settings of my router
[09:10] <antihero> ive got amd 3000+, new asus motherboard
[09:10] <antihero> good fast hardware
[09:10] <bob2> antihero: depends more on the speed/type of the disk and partition
[09:11] <antihero> oh, i think its 7200rpm, its a 120gb drive though
[09:11] <bob2> then give it a while (ie half an hour or more)
[09:12] <antihero> ok cool
[09:13] <Cosonic> hmm
[09:14] <Cosonic> hi..i managed to install ubuntu breezy on my laptop..but aparently the vga drivers arent compatible..the picture ie weird..how do i fix it plz?

[09:19] <iceman> there a uninstall command
[09:19] <mustard5> heh
[09:19] <Mabus> how do I find out my "local ip"
[09:20] <Mabus> One that is like "192.168. something"
[09:20] <zkl-laptop> Mabus, ifconfig [interface] , e.g. ifconfig eth0
[09:20] <mustard5> iceman, I believe it only installs to your /home directory
[09:20] <Mabus> thanks
[09:20] <Delvien> what does the command echo do
[09:20] <mahangu> ok, but how do i install a .deb package?
[09:20] <bob2> Delvien: echo a string to the screen
[09:20] <iceman> mustard5 yea, but seems it leavs somethin in the system, i cat get online ...
[09:21] <bob2> ie like printf in C or PRINT in basic
[09:21] <Delvien> bob2 ? does that mean it changes a seting?
[09:21] <mustard5> iceman, I'm not sure how the two problems are related
[09:22] <bob2> Delvien: no
[09:22] <bob2> Delvien: it has no effect except to print a line to the screen
[09:22] <iceman> we'll if i can remove the complete install, then maybe a new install may work .
[09:22] <Cosonic> alo alo?
[09:22] <Delvien> bob2 a website is telling me to "by echoing 0 into this file, " what does that mean
[09:22] <mustard5> iceman, ah ok ..you can't connect to a game server you mean ok
[09:23] <Cosonic> i managed to install ubuntu breezy on my laptop..but aparently the vga drivers arent compatible..the picture ie weird..how do i fix it plz?
[09:23] <bob2> Delvien: more context please
[09:23] <bob2> Cosonic: you're being too ague
[09:23] <bob2> Cosonic: you need to explain what "weird" means
[09:24] <iceman> i get to the game server, then after i click to join a game it jusy gots to "awaiting game state" and counts.. and it also will not same my profile settings ..

[09:35] <Mabus> bob2, you too
[09:35] <Delvien> echo 2 | sudo tee /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/cooling_mode
[09:35] <Delvien> mustard5 yes echo 2 | sudo tee /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THM/cooling_mode
[09:35] <_cosonic> its on 800X600
[09:35] <Mabus> robotgeek, I just followed the instructions for bittorent but used logical substitutions for values
[09:35] <robotgeek> Mabus: cool :) that's a nice site
[09:35] <dcatdemon> _cosonic: sorry sorry, the COLORS... not the resolution. :).
[09:36] <megamind> marko: my pleasuer i hope u got it :)
[09:36] <Mabus> robotgeek, indeed. again, thanks, got my apache working :)
[09:36] <Delvien> mustard5 should i sudo -i and try
[09:36] <robotgeek> Mabus: that was quick!
[09:36] <_cosonic> dcatdemon and how is that done?
[09:37] <mustard5> Delvien, I have no idea :)
[09:37] <Mabus> robotgeek, all I had to do was do what it said for all the other applications except use port 80... and blam; worked
[09:38] <marko> just checking now
[09:38] <chito> robot, thanks
[09:38] <phil_> when i visit windows,it tells me that it needs password, but windows didn't set password
[09:38] <bob2> Delvien: it's you not specifying the right /procfilename then
[09:38] <Delvien> use yours
[09:38] <Mabus> what's a good free/adfree site that will give me an url to treat as my ip?
[09:39] <Delvien> bob2 im looking at the file, i spelled it right
[09:39] <bob2> Mabus: ddts.net, dyndns.org
[09:39] <megamind> no-ip.com
[09:39] <bob2> dhs.org, too
[09:39] <marko> wOOt, it worked great :) Thanks again for everything megamind \o/
[09:39] <megamind> deerfield.com as i think
[09:39] <Mabus> thanks guys
[09:40] <megamind> my pleasure dear
[09:40] <chito> robot, can u be my guru in linux? hehehe
[09:40] <marko> ;)
[09:40] <dcatdemon> _cosonic: ok,  I only know the command line way, but if anyone knows how to do using ui that'll be good.  log on as root, change dir to /etc/X11, use any editor to open xorg.conf...
[09:41] <robotgeek> chito: u talking to me?
[09:41] <Delvien> bob2 went under sudo -i and did it and it didnt give me a bash
[09:41] <tiglionabbit> chito: no guru-hoarding
[09:41] <Madpilot> dcatdemon: "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf (something like that, anyway)
[09:41] <_cosonic> problem is i hardly see anything
[09:41] <tiglionabbit> Madpilot: dcatdemon: use gksudo
[09:42] <tiglionabbit> if you wanna run it from a "run" dialog
[09:42] <Delvien> bob2 thanks for your help
[09:42] <chito> yes sir robotgeek
[09:42] <dcatdemon> _cosonic needs to go to command mode... type CTRL-ALT-F1.
[09:42] <_cosonic> ok
[09:42] <Toba> is there a reason the screensaver daemon is constantly just not running anymore?
[09:42] <Toba> it does this every few days for a week or so and then stops for a month or so
[09:43] <tiglionabbit> constantly not running?
[09:43] <_cosonic> and i login as root`
[09:43] <Toba> it just is not running for some reason sometimes
[09:43] <dcatdemon> log on as root there, and go to /etc/X11 and edit xorg.conf. MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP the file first.
[09:43] <_cosonic> but i dont know what the passwd is
[09:43] <_cosonic> i dont think i have a psswd
[09:43] <bob2> _cosonic: don't login as root
[09:43] <fr33mind> Hey, I don't have the file: "etc/ld.so.conf".  Wich package I need for that?
[09:43] <bob2> _cosonic: login as you and use sudo to run commands as root
[09:44] <bob2> fr33mind: where did it go?
[09:44] <lonewolff> win 2
[09:44] <Toba> bob2: why not just do "su root" and then have a root shell?
[09:44] <lonewolff> oops
[09:44] <dcatdemon> ok, bob2's right. don't log on as root, log on as your normal user...
[09:44] <Toba> it's easier than sudo for ever command
[09:44] <tiglionabbit> dcatdemon: _cosonic: it's generally not recommended to log into the gui as root.  Use gksudo to launch an application with super user powers instead
[09:44] <fr33mind> bob2: I don't know!  I juste don't have this file at all!
[09:45] <dcatdemon>  tiglionabbit: _cosonic cannot see anything in X :)... but yes, you are right, should log on as user, sudo .
[09:45] <_cosonic> ok im in as user now
[09:45] <bob2> fr33mind: hm, you probably don't need one on breezy
[09:45] <antihero> ok, so the install just crashed, and now when I try to load windows it just says error loading operating system.....did I just lose everything?????
[09:45] <bob2> fr33mind: I don't know if it's deliberate or not
[09:45] <bob2> Toba: 'sudo -s'
[09:45] <fr33mind> bob2: which package install it?
[09:46] <bob2> fr33mind: none, afaict
[09:46] <antihero> can someone help me =(
[09:46] <tiglionabbit> antihero: what did you do?
[09:47] <antihero> when i was installing kubuntu, it resized my nfts partition to make room for my linux partition, then the install crashed and now when I try to load windows it just says error loading operating system
[09:48] <adam_r> if a CGI file isnt set as excecutable it wont run right
[09:48] <bob2> the installer crashed?
[09:48] <BeGu> antihero, it means that you should just try again
[09:48] <fr33mind> bob2: that means that /usr/local/lib is never parsed by ldconfig ?
[09:48] <bob2> fr33mind: right
[09:48] <antihero> I dont know how it went wrong but I got an error in the base system install
[09:48] <bob2> fr33mind: if you put stuff there you'll need a ld.so.conf, yes :)
[09:49] <fr33mind> bob2: I have to do it by hand?
[09:49] <shawarma> bob2: Why aren't you with the rest of the crowd at UBZ?
[09:49] <antihero> so did I just lose my xp?
[09:49] <dcatdemon> _cosonic: and go to /etc/X11 and edit xorg.conf using your favourite editor, you can try "pico /etc/X11/xorg.conf". MAKE SURE YOU BACK UP the file first by making a copy of it. (cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak).
[09:49] <tiglionabbit> antihero: =[  that's not good.  It could perhaps have no bootloader, or a screwed up one.  BeGu's right, you should run the install disc again
[09:50] <antihero> ok
[09:50] <bob2> fr33mind: so it seems...I'm trying to find out if it's deliberate or not
[09:50] <antihero> ill try it
[09:50] <tiglionabbit> hopefully it didn't screw up your partitions
[09:50] <mustard5> antihero, I wouldnt think so
[09:50] <bob2> shawarma: canadia is about $4000 from here, unfortunately :)
[09:50] <_cosonic> dcatdemon what do i edit exactly in the file?
[09:50] <shawarma> bob2: wtf... Where are you? Mars
[09:50] <shawarma> ?
[09:50] <mustard5> antihero you installed grub to MBR is that right?
[09:50] <dcatdemon> _cosonic: locate the Section "Screen" section and change the DefaultDepth to 16.
[09:51] <bob2> shawarma: Australia.
[09:51] <dcatdemon> _cosonic: sorry, I'm not a fast typer. :(.
[09:51] <_cosonic> np but tell me i opened it by vi command and i cant go out,,,
[09:51] <bob2> _cosonic: escape until it beeps, then :wq<enter>
[09:51] <shawarma> bob2: Oh.. Well, I just thought the entire Canoncial crew was going (and paid for by Canonical).
[09:52] <bob2> shawarma: oh, I'm not working at Canonical anymore
[09:52] <shawarma> _cosonic: Press ESC Z Z
[09:52] <_cosonic> the damn keyboard is acting very strangely here
[09:52] <dcatdemon> ?
[09:53] <shawarma> bob2: When did that happen? What do yo do now then?
[09:53] <dcatdemon> sheesh, I wonder if there is a way to modify X parameters with a UI without going thru by hand in ubuntu :)... _cosonic: what do you mean "acting strangely"?
[09:53] <stevejesus> hey guys
[09:53] <_cosonic> not responding
[09:53] <_cosonic> never mind i will restart it
[09:54] <dcatdemon> did you change anything in the xorg.conf file?
[09:54] <_cosonic> it took me 3 minutes just to cd
[09:54] <_cosonic> no
[09:54] <RezDawg> clear
[09:54] <_cosonic> the keyboard wasnt working as it should
[09:54] <bob2> shawarma: a few months now; working on some embedded programming stuff
[09:55] <RezDawg> Honey Im home from work Ubuntu pple
[09:55] <stevejesus> can anyone help me with nfs mounting?
[09:55] <umberleigh> hi, my copy of amarok freezes when it loads. it outputs this: http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/3923 when i run it from a command line, any idea what's wrong?
[09:55] <bob2> shawarma: which is fun, but doesn't send me drinking in another country every few months ;)
[09:55] <mustard5> ubotu:tell stevejesus about windowsdrives
[09:55] <_cosonic> hmm now booting has frozen on starting hotplug system,,,
[09:56] <bob2> _cosonic: try using the noapic, acpi=off and nolapic boot options
[09:56] <stevejesus> thanks but i wasnt asking about ntfs.
[09:56] <stevejesus> i was talking about remote nfs shares
[09:56] <bob2> stevejesus: you need to provide more details...
[09:57] <mustard5> stevejesus, you talking about network file share?
[09:57] <mustard5> k
[09:57] <stevejesus> alright.  i have a linux server in the house that broadcasts smbfs and nfs.  i would like to have my machine mount the nfs share at boot.  ill so samba is i have to.  i think my etc/fstab is incorrect
[09:58] <bob2> show us the lines from your fstab
[09:58] <stevejesus> can anyone help?
[09:58] <stevejesus> mustard5:  yes im talking about network file shares
[09:59] <mustard5> stevejesus paste fstab in pastebin
[09:59] <mustard5> !pastebin
[09:59] <ubotu> extra, extra, read all about it, pastebin is a site where you can post large texts and screenshots so you don't flood the channel. You can find it at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl
[10:01] <stevejesus> mustard5:  http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/3924
[10:02] <stevejesus> mustard5:  i have it set up to mount samba as per ubuntu wiki instructions
[10:03] <stevejesus> mustard5:  i would like to give it read write access from all users on ubuntu machine
[10:03] <mustard5> stevejesus, show bob2...use his name as he migh be in another channel
[10:03] <antihero> ok, so I tried to install it again, and It says DEBOOTSTRAP failed. do I have a bad cd?
[10:04] <StarKruzr> antihero: possibly, or a bad CD-ROM drive.  you'll need to burn another to narrow down your possibilities.
[10:04] <bob2> eh?
[10:04] <bob2> that's smbfs, not nfs
[10:05] <stevejesus> bob2:  i was trying to mount it smbfs as the ubuntu wiki didnt have instructions for nfs
[10:05] <antihero> if I have a amd64 and I use a regular install, would it crash? because im trying the 64bit version, but I could just get the other one insted
[10:05] <stevejesus> bob2:  help
[10:05] <stevejesus> bob2:  please
[10:06] <Crasp> hello, for some reason the totem plugin for firefox seems to stop playing a movie from within the browser after a few seconds (5 or so). Is this a know issue?
[10:06] <_cosonic> whats the command to save and exit in pico?
[10:06] <Delvien> damn cant play BF2 on cedega :(
[10:06] <shawarma> _cosonic: CTRL+X, I think.
[10:06] <mustard5> antihero, I would assume they should both work really
[10:06] <antihero> ok
[10:06] <shawarma> _cosonic: Doesn't it say so at the bottom of the screen?
[10:06] <antihero> so i will just try the other one
[10:07] <mustard5> antihero, check your cd with md5 checksum
[10:07] <bob2> stevejesus: wtf
[10:07] <_cosonic> no
[10:07] <bob2> stevejesus: if it's nfs, you can't just use some other random protocol
[10:07] <bob2> stevejesus: the filesystem type is nfs, change that for a start
[10:07] <_cosonic> ctrl+x made me lose the cursor
[10:07] <bob2> Crasp: it's known to be basically useless, yes
[10:07] <StarKruzr> hahaha
[10:07] <stevejesus> bob2:  i know.  my server broadcast smbfs, afp and others.  i would like to mount via nfs is you can help.  thanks
[10:07] <StarKruzr> awesome.
[10:07] <antihero> what does DEBOOTSTRAP failed mean?
[10:07] <Crasp> bob2: is there any way i can fix it?
[10:08] <shawarma> _cosonic: After ctrl+x, press y (or any other abbreviation of "yes" that makes sense in your language).
[10:08] <bob2> Crasp: get rid of it and use the mplayer mozilla plugin, I'd think
[10:08] <_cosonic> ok cursor back
[10:08] <bob2> stevejesus: no, sorry.  good luck.
[10:08] <Crasp> bob2: hmm ok i'll try that then
[10:08] <bob2> antihero: when doing what?
[10:08] <_cosonic> but still in the file
[10:08] <stevejesus> bob2:  well, can you help me mount it via smbfs?
[10:09] <antihero> installing the base system
[10:09] <antihero> The debootstrap program exited with an error (return value 1)
[10:09] <antihero> Check / target/var/log/bootstrap.log for details
[10:09] <StarKruzr> ooo.  there's a userspace nfs server
[10:09] <shawarma> _cosonic: CTRL+X followed by Y
[10:09] <Delvien> antihero usually means something is wrong with your partition , or corrupt CD
[10:10] <_cosonic> did that ..nothing
[10:10] <Delvien> antihero try going through the "installing the base system" then if that fails, burn a different copy of the install CD
[10:10] <mustard5> antihero at lowest speek
[10:10] <mustard5> antihero at lowest speed
[10:10] <bob2> antihero: usually means the cd is busticated, or the hard drive is having issues
[10:11] <Delvien> bob2 thats what i just said :)
[10:11] <bob2> heh, I'm half asleep
[10:11] <Robbster> lo all.
[10:11] <mustard5> welcome Robbster
[10:11] <antihero> yeah, i was just reading that I should burn it on the lowest speed
[10:12] <mustard5> antihero, you going to try amd64 again or 386?
[10:12] <Robbster> thanks mustard5. I've just popped in here. I've installed Breezy server on a machine. Install went fine (I think) and now comes the question - now what:)
[10:12] <Delvien> grr why do i have to sudo k3b just to blank a cdrw
[10:12] <antihero> i was thinking of going with the 386
[10:12] <mustard5> Robbster, what is your goal?
[10:13] <Robbster> I want to set it up as a proxy/firewall for the soho office. I've got some experience with Mandriva (rpm-based), but no clue 'bout debian-based distros.
[10:13] <rob^> Robbster, if thats all your using the PC for, try smoothwall or ipcop
[10:13] <mustard5> Delvien, is there a chance antihero's MBR got corrupted when grub installed to MBR?
[10:14] <Robbster> dunno if the repository is even set up correctly.
[10:14] <StarKruzr> "busticated" = my favorite new word.
[10:14] <selinium> Robbster, are you on hoary or breezy?
[10:14] <Robbster> tried ipcop, didn't pick up my 2nd nick. also tried smoothwall, but there was a reason it wouldn't work 3 me....humm, forget now. But I have tried them :)
[10:15] <Robbster> selinium: breezy
[10:15] <mustard5> selinium breezy server install he said earlier
[10:15] <Robbster> I just need to get my bearings :)
[10:15] <selinium> Robbster, Sources list at  http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/2325
[10:15] <selinium> :)
[10:15] <Mabus> someone verify this link works for them please
[10:15] <Mabus> http://nickroberts.zapto.org/
[10:15] <Delvien> mustard5 well since he was installing the base system, he wouldnt of installed grub yet
[10:15] <selinium> Robbster, you will be fine, lots of helpful people here!
[10:15] <Mabus> howdy mustard5
[10:16] <StarKruzr> Oh shit, Nick's linux box got a webpage!
[10:16] <mustard5> Delvien,  oh..hehe...I thought I saw someone earlier installing grub to MBR, might have been someone else
[10:16] <rob^> ipcop is working great here :)
[10:16] <Robbster> selinium: so I see. probably the most friendly room I've been in for a while :)
[10:16] <mustard5> yo Mabus
[10:16] <Mabus> Thanks StarKruzr
[10:16] <StarKruzr> np
[10:16] <Mabus> why would itbe that some others cannot load the page?
[10:16] <Delvien> when you are installing GRUB to the MBR its very hard to mess up, since you hit yes and its done.
[10:16] <mustard5> k
[10:16] <Robbster> Rob^: I'm sure, but I couldn't get it to pick up my 2nd nick. breezy didn't have any problem :)
[10:16] <selinium> Robbster, One thing you will find with Ubuntu is a fantastic community! :)
[10:17] <esc_ape> does http://www.allofmp3.com not load for anyone else?
[10:17] <rob^> Robbster, thats pretty odd, smoothwall does use a 2.4 kernel though
[10:17] <StarKruzr> esc_ape: doesn't work for me either
[10:17] <StarKruzr> esc_ape: that's that russian one, right?
[10:17] <Delvien> the site is down
[10:17] <esc_ape> thanks StarKruzr
[10:17] <Madpilot> the server returns pings, though
[10:17] <Robbster> selinium: part of the reason I'm venturing in here. I really respect what Mark is trying to achieve.
[10:17] <indypende> wo know a guy for the translation of PO files?
[10:18] <StarKruzr> yes
[10:18] <indypende> wo know a gui for the translation of PO files?
[10:18] <StarKruzr> we are all on a first-name basis with Mark
[10:18] <[dEvIL-bOY] > how is everyone doing?
[10:18] <rob^> indypende, yes launchpad
[10:18] <Robbster> StarKruzr: I'
[10:18] <selinium> Robbster, you can see him here occassionally as nick sabdfl
[10:18] <mustard5> Hey [dEvIL-bOY]  good thanks
[10:18] <tiglionabbit> what plays midis?
[10:18] <rob_p> Robbster:  Internet connection sharing howto and NAT script for Ubuntu:  http://rob.pectol.com/content/view/12/27/  (if the site is working - been having a little trouble lately with the server)
[10:18] <mustard5> tiglionabbit, timidity
[10:18] <[dEvIL-bOY] > feeking energetic this morning?
[10:18] <indypende> rob^, ?
[10:19] <Robbster> StarKruzr: I'm from cpt, same university, etc.
[10:19] <rob^> indypende, see https://launchpad.net/
[10:19] <esc_ape> so, I think everyone who rips cds should use crip
[10:19] <esc_ape> it rules
[10:19] <StarKruzr> Robbster: eh?
[10:19] <tiglionabbit> timidity is a midi/wav converter
[10:19] <StarKruzr> OH
[10:19] <StarKruzr> Cape Town!
[10:19] <StarKruzr> no shit!
[10:19] <rob^> indypende, thats were we upload them for translation
[10:19] <Robbster> shit
[10:19] <Toma-> anyone know of any good racing games that have multiplayer/lan support? my g/f only wants to play racing games :(
[10:19] <StarKruzr> nifty.
[10:19] <rob^> so you will find everything there
[10:19] <StarKruzr> how old is he/are you?
[10:20] <[dEvIL-bOY] > with ntfs partitions
[10:20] <[dEvIL-bOY] > can we only read or is it possible to write to them as well?
[10:20] <Delvien> read
[10:20] <mustard5> tiglionabbit, * Plays MIDI files without any external MIDI instruments at all
[10:20] <hit3k> is it possible to take a screenshot of a Login Screen?
[10:20] <[dEvIL-bOY] > cool
[10:20] <rob^> indypende, just look for rosetta
[10:20] <Mabus> hit3k, try?
[10:20] <StarKruzr> I wonder if I should try installing this on my machine
[10:20] <Robbster> I'm 28. I think mark is a few years older. We met at the uni - he did a talk there. But that was a while back :)
[10:20] <onispawn> Toma: play mariocart its the best game for g/f's
[10:20] <Delvien> starkruzr Need for speed ? :P
[10:20] <hit3k> Mabus i should
[10:21] <tiglionabbit> mustard5: it's not working for me
[10:21] <Mabus> hit3k, but?
[10:21] <tiglionabbit> /etc/timidity/freepats.cfg: No such file or directory
[10:21] <tiglionabbit> timidity: Can't read any configuration file.
[10:21] <StarKruzr> Delvien: not particularly.  why?
[10:21] <mustard5> tiglionabbit, try installing freepats
[10:21] <Mabus> anyone have a program to reccoment for downloading music?
[10:21] <Delvien> starkruzr NFS = need for speed
[10:21] <rob^> Mabus, try amule
[10:21] <Toma-> onispawn: i would, if i had a n64 hooked up to my tv card.... *ponders*
[10:22] <tiglionabbit> shouldn't apt get all dependencies?  =\
[10:22] <moccah> Mabus, or LimeWire
[10:22] <apokryphos> it does, yes
[10:22] <Delvien> Toma- super smash brothers is the best n64 game ever
[10:22] <selinium> Toma-, use zsnes and get mario roms
[10:22] <Mabus> moccah, limewire works on linux?
[10:22] <Crasp> bob2: do you perhaps have any idea how i tell firefox to not use totem but mplayer?
[10:22] <mustard5> tiglionabbit, its in the 'recommended' part...select timidity and right click...check 'recommended'
[10:22] <Delvien> mabus yes lime does
[10:22] <Mabus> that's what i used on windows so if it works on linux that'd be pimp
[10:22] <Toma-> selinium: now thats using the ol' noodle :D
[10:22] <Robbster> I"m looking for an easy-to-configure firewall app for this server. Any recommendations. Something cursers/web based would be great.
[10:22] <tiglionabbit> ah
[10:22] <moccah> yupp
[10:22] <Crasp> bob2: i installed mozilla-mplayer
[10:22] <rob^> Robbster, try firestarter
[10:22] <esc_ape> Crasp - just delete the totem plugins
[10:23] <rob^> oh
[10:23] <Toma-> oooo zsnes has LAN support too right?
[10:23] <rob^> thats not gonna help
[10:23] <tiglionabbit> how do I get mplayer to install?  It's missing a package
[10:23] <onispawn> toma:yes
[10:23] <Toma-> orsom.
[10:23] <moccah> Mabus, I can send you the file
[10:23] <rob^> Robbster, you could try webmin with a few plugins
[10:23] <mustard5> tiglionabbit, which package?
[10:23] <selinium> Toma-, not sure, but mariokart has split screen, i know it is a bit old school but....
[10:23] <tiglionabbit> I'll check, as soon as freepats is installed..  taking a while
[10:23] <mustard5> tiglionabbit, k
[10:23] <Mabus> moccah, sure, if you can tell me how to install it too. I only know how to use apt-get or synaptic, I'm quite new to this
[10:24] <[dEvIL-bOY] > /dev/hda1       /media/windows  ntfs    nls=utf8,umask=0222 0       0
[10:24] <Delvien> lol i didnt know ZSNES was Adept installable !!
[10:24] <moccah> Mabus, sure
[10:24] <tiglionabbit> I think it was like libavcodecs0
[10:24] <[dEvIL-bOY] > i can't read them still
[10:24] <morgs^^> is there a way i can get sun-j2re1.5 thru apt-get or wget ?
[10:24] <[dEvIL-bOY] > should i use usr
[10:24] <Crasp> esc_ape: thanks, that did the trick :)
[10:24] <[dEvIL-bOY] > rather than nls?
[10:24] <Robbster> I just need a little push in the right direction. how do I install stuff with apt-get?
[10:24] <mustard5> [dEvIL-bOY] , did you try the automount script for windows drives?
[10:24] <selinium> morgs^^, yep!
[10:24] <selinium> morgs^^, one mo.
[10:24] <[dEvIL-bOY] > mustard5,  they appear on boot
[10:24] <StarKruzr> Robbster: do you know about sudo?
[10:24] <selinium> Robbster, sudo apt-get install <package>
[10:24] <Mabus> Robbster, sudo apt-get install applicationname
[10:24] <tiglionabbit> libavcodec2
[10:24] <[dEvIL-bOY] > but i can't access them
[10:25] <mustard5> [dEvIL-bOY] , did you try the automount script for windows drives?
[10:25] <tiglionabbit> !info libavcodec2
[10:25] <StarKruzr> he needs to know what package he wants first.
[10:25] <[dEvIL-bOY] > only if i go by the disks administration
[10:25] <tiglionabbit> doesn't exist
[10:25] <selinium> Robbster, or use synaptic. If youwant the pretty gui
[10:25] <Mabus> moccah, how will you send me the file?
[10:25] <mustard5> [dEvIL-bOY] , try answering my question ;)
[10:25] <morgs^^> Couldn't find package sun-j2re1.5
[10:25] <Robbster> humm I'm a little uneasy with this 'no root' vibe on Ubuntu. I'm sure I'll get used to it tho.
[10:25] <morgs^^> its not in my lists
[10:25] <[dEvIL-bOY] > no
[10:25] <rob^> morgs^^, try reading the link ubotu gave you
[10:25] <gooo> have a specific problem: how can i install ubuntu on notebook with NON BOOTABLE PCMCIA CD-ROM???? only with a little help of my floppy
[10:25] <crimsun> Robbster: you mean "no root by default"?
[10:25] <[dEvIL-bOY] > i have done this before
[10:25] <Delvien> For ZSNES how do you maximize the SCREEN?
[10:25] <[dEvIL-bOY] > with a usr something
[10:25] <mustard5> [dEvIL-bOY] , save yourself some grief and use it :)  I'll get a link for you
[10:26] <[dEvIL-bOY] > but i can't remenber the whole command
[10:26] <StarKruzr> Robbster: go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ and you can browse the packages list in there too, or search it
[10:26] <crimsun> Robbster: you're of course free to set a root password and use the root account
[10:26] <mustard5> [dEvIL-bOY] , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[10:26] <morgs^^> oh thanks i didnt see ubotu :)  ta
[10:26] <tiglionabbit> Robbster: it's just a default setting to not log into the gui as root, because that's dangerous to do.  You have sudo / gksudo to do all administrative tasks
[10:26] <StarKruzr> !root
[10:26] <ubotu> I guess root is disabled in Ubuntu, you can read all about it on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RootSudo
[10:26] <Robbster> crinsun: just reading up about that now...
[10:26] <Mabus> Delvien, fool around with the settings.
[10:26] <[dEvIL-bOY] > cheers
[10:26] <rob^> gooo, you could try using a usb stick
[10:26] <[dEvIL-bOY] > i'll have a look mustard5
[10:26] <selinium> morgs^^, wget http://www.giannaros.org/public/breezydebs/sun-j2re1.5_1.5.0+update04_i386.deb
[10:26] <mustard5> k
[10:26] <selinium> morgs^^, for breezy
[10:27] <morgs^^> ahh you legend :)
[10:27] <StarKruzr> hm I wonder
[10:27] <emgee> Help! My DVD player won't mount DVD disks. Could that be a linux problem?
[10:27] <StarKruzr> !sudo
[10:27] <ubotu> rumour has it, sudo is http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RootSudo
[10:27] <selinium> morgs^^, np :)
[10:27] <StarKruzr> it could be an emgee problem
[10:27] <rob^> champagne comedy
[10:27] <Toma-> emgee: whats it doing/not doing?
[10:28] <StarKruzr> thank you, I'll be here all week
[10:28] <StarKruzr> try the chicken, it's delicious
[10:28] <StarKruzr> remember to tip your waiter, and be cool, stay in school
[10:28] <moccah> Mabus, you got the link?
[10:29] <Mabus> moccah, no... what link?
[10:29] <emgee> Toma-, I insert the disk, nothing happens (no automount), I type 'mount /media/cdrom0' and it says "mount: No medium found"...
[10:29] <moccah> Mabus06, http://aragorn.oslo.nith.no/~taktor/files/
[10:29] <Mabus06> Okay, I wasn't identified sorry.
[10:29] <Mabus06> You probably tried to PM me.
[10:29] <moccah> Mabus06, just download the file there
[10:30] <rob^> Seveas, ping
[10:30] <Toma-> emgee: whats on the disk?
[10:30] <Mabus06> I have problems with autoidentify moccah
[10:30] <Mabus06> My nickname on all other servers is my name, nick
[10:30] <moccah> Mabus06, ok
[10:30] <Mabus06> on this server, that's an erroneous nickname
[10:30] <moccah> Mabus06,  you cant get the file?
[10:30] <Mabus06> for good reason... in other servers people often message me "serv identify password"
[10:31] <moccah> Mabus06, ok, just: wget http://aragorn.oslo.nith.no/~taktor/files/LimeWireOther.zip
[10:31] <Mabus06> no, I had no troubles moccah ...
[10:31] <Mabus06> moccah, but how do I install it after it's downloaded
[10:31] <emgee> Toma-, I've tried both copies of dvd's and an original dvd. The original mounts, but won't play... "Totem: Can't play dvd://"...
[10:32] <moccah> Mabus06, sudo unzip -u LimeWireOther.zip -d /opt/
[10:32] <Mabus06> that it?
[10:32] <Toma-> emgee: you have 2 drives?
[10:32] <moccah> Mabus06, no, then; sudo chown -R root:root /opt/LimeWire/
[10:32] <mustard5> emgee, commercial encrypted dvds ?
[10:32] <moccah> Mabus06: then, sudo gedit /usr/bin/runLime.sh
[10:32] <emgee> Toma-, One DVD ROM and one CDRW-burner...
[10:33] <vengeful> anyone use iglooftp here?
[10:33] <mustard5> emgee, libdvdcss installed?
[10:33] <tiglionabbit> emgee: read the dvd section of http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats if you have not already
[10:33] <moccah> Mabus06, and put the following in this file... cd /opt/LimeWire/
[10:33] <moccah>      ./runLime.sh
[10:34] <moccah> Mabus06, in separate lines
[10:34] <Toma-> emgee: is totem pointing to the right drive?
[10:34] <onispawn> anyone know which configuration file for firefox specifies which multimedia application it should use. Right now its configured to use totem, but I want to use mplayer
[10:34] <Toma-> ive got 2 dvd drives and it was a pain making sure its looking at the right one..
[10:34] <moccah> Mabus06, : save this file
[10:34] <Toma-> bbl, sorry
[10:34] <emgee> Toma-, I don't know really. How do I see what dvd:// is pointed to?
[10:34] <Mabus06> moccah, done
[10:34] <emgee> oh...
[10:34] <moccah> Mabus06, then sudo chmod +x /usr/bin/runLime.sh
[10:35] <moccah> Mabus06, and after; sudo gedit /usr/share/applications/LimeWire.desktop
[10:35] <sword> sup
[10:35] <martii> !+sources
[10:35] <ubotu> How to add repositories:  http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/AddingRepositoriesHowto - A list of official repositories can be found at http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/969 (Hoary) or http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/2325 (Breezy) - Create your own sources.list at http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic

[10:36] <moccah> Mabus06, and put the lines you find here: http://ubuntuhjorne.org/guide/sample/LimeWire.desktop_limewire  into the text editor
[10:36] <mustard5> emgee, you downloaded libdvdcss ?
[10:36] <moccah> Mabus06, then save the file, and refresh your gnome panel (killall gnome-panel)
[10:36] <mustard5> ubotu: tell emgee about dvd
[10:37] <moccah> Mabus06, now LimeWire is Applications -> Internet -> LimeWire
[10:37] <Mabus06> thanks a million moccah

[10:37] <moccah> Mabus06, No Probs mate:D
[10:37] <deFrysk> moccah, is that not mutch easyer ?
[10:37] <moccah> this is LimeWire, not Azureues...
[10:38] <deFrysk> moccah, o geez , my mind was miles away, sorry
[10:38] <emgee> mustard5, Can't even find a packet called that.. :)
[10:38] <Mabus06> moccah, how come it isn't available for install on synaptic or something?
[10:38] <moccah> deFrysk, np;)
[10:38] <Yorn> hi
[10:38] <moccah> Mabus06, no idea..
[10:38] <mustard5> emgee, you might need to enable the exra repositories
[10:38] <mustard5> emgee, do you know how to do that?
[10:39] <moccah> Mabus06, maybe ill mage a .deb one day:p
[10:39] <Mabus06> are there extra repositories available other than the ones you can select in th emenu?
[10:39] <naga01> hi
[10:39] <mustard5> Mabus06, check this http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[10:39] <stylish> anyone have a ubuntu theme site
[10:39] <emgee> mustard5, Yeah but I don't know what the repositories are. :)
[10:39] <emgee> I know how to add them though
[10:40] <mustard5> emgee, I will send you a guide through ubotu
[10:40] <emgee> Nice! :)
[10:40] <mustard5> ubotu: tell emgee about repositories
[10:40] <Mabus06> emgee, they sound like suppositories only they don't hurt your anus
[10:40] <mustard5> emgee follow the guides that ubotu sent you
[10:40] <mustard5> emgee than when you have extra repos enabled try the DVD guide again
[10:43] <Mabus06> !ubotu
[10:43] <ubotu> Thaaat's me! I'm a bot, not a human. I'm sometimes the most coherent poster on this channel! For more, ask me about "add". You can browse my databanks on http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:43] <Mabus06> !bot
[10:43] <ubotu> I'm a bot, I'm a bot. Set fire to me, I'll get hot. Reply to mabus06? I think not. Bot, got, chicken... rhyming sucks.
[10:43] <mustard5> heh..libdvdread3 is in main repo
[10:43] <Mabus06> lol @ ubotu
[10:43] <Mabus06> !joke
[10:43] <ubotu> Mabus06: I'm not sure, is it larger than a breadbox?
[10:44] <Mabus06> !lol
[10:44] <ubotu> I heard lol is "laugh out loud"
[10:44] <mustard5> emgee you still around?
[10:44] <Mabus06> !rofl
[10:44] <ubotu> Mabus06: What?
[10:44] <emgee> mustard5, yeah I found it there right before I started doing the repositories changes..
[10:44] <mustard5> emgee, you installing now?
[10:44] <naga01> is it possible to start an installed system without a gui? I have ubuntu installed in a standard way. So on startup i come to the graphical login. But i want only the console!
[10:44] <megamind> clear
[10:44] <emgee> But how can this be different from one installation from another?
[10:44] <aeon17x> !botsnacks
[10:44] <ubotu> thanks aeon17x :)
[10:44] <emgee> mustard5, Done
[10:44] <mustard5> emgee, now run the script command from the DVD guide
[10:45] <emgee> Done
[10:45] <mustard5> emgee did it download libdvdcss?
[10:45] <emgee> Yeah
[10:45] <mustard5> put a DVD in
[10:46] <emgee> official or burned?
[10:46] <mustard5> official
[10:47] <emgee> Ok, it mounts, but Totem says "could not play dvd://, Failed to open; reason unknown"
[10:47] <mustard5> k, I think this confirms that you may have your drives connected up wrong.
[10:47] <selinium> onispawn, Have you got the answer to your mplayer prob yet?
[10:47] <emgee> Hmm..
[10:47] <stevejesus> can anyone help me with samba?
[10:48] <emgee> The DVD is master but might sit on the slave cable piece...
[10:48] <mustard5> emgee
[10:48] <mustard5> you using totem-xine
[10:48] <mustard5> ?
[10:48] <emgee> Not sure..
[10:49] <udo> Hi @ all
[10:49] <mustard5> emgee, type in terminal...sudo apt-get install totem-xine
[10:49] <emgee> .Nope
[10:49] <emgee> installing now..
[10:49] <mustard5> k
[10:49] <emgee> done
[10:49] <emgee> will it replace totem?
[10:49] <mustard5> try again with DVD
[10:49] <stevejesus> can anyone help me with samba?
[10:49] <mustard5> emgee, it will all look the same
[10:49] <emgee> ok
[10:49] <udo> I have a smoll question: I have changed the menu.lst for ghrub. How can I now write it to the boot-sector without making the system unbootable ?
[10:50] <moccah> He`s fun, aint he:p
[10:50] <moccah> bah, wrong channel :P
[10:51] <mustard5> udo, backup your first grub list first
[10:51] <emgee> mustard5, same problem still
[10:51] <udo> mustartd5: Ok I already did this.
[10:51] <_cosonic> whats the command to enter x window from console plz?
[10:51] <udo> _consonic : startx
[10:51] <mustard5> udo, I don't know much about grub...ask others
[10:51] <udo> ok
[10:52] <mustard5> emgee, have you got your DVD manual?
[10:52] <emgee> _cosonic, startx
[10:52] <emgee> mustard5, nope
[10:52] <mustard5> emgee, check for how its meant to be connected up
[10:52] <_cosonic> not working
[10:52] <moccah> _cosonic, X
[10:52] <moccah> capital X
[10:52] <moccah> :p
[10:52] <mustard5> emgee, is it on its own IDE connection or sharing with something else,
[10:53] <emgee> yeah... well... the strange thing though is that this all worked fine yesterday and I haven't changed the connections at all... Only reinstalled ubuntu
[10:53] <mustard5> ah ok
[10:53] <emgee> sharing with the cdRW drive
[10:53] <mustard5> emgee, well you would assume it was working then...
[10:53] <emgee> my point exactly. :)
[10:54] <mustard5> emgee, did you upgrade or just do a clean install
[10:54] <emgee> clean
[10:54] <mustard5> emgee, mystifying :)
[10:54] <emgee> :)
[10:54] <mustard5> emgee, I'm runnin' out of options :)
[10:54] <emgee> I, for some reason, just had to type apt-get remove libxml2... and hit Y on top of that... :P
[10:54] <emgee> damn..
[10:55] <mustard5> have you been playing DVDs from differernt regions and switching regions?
[10:55] <emgee> Not really no... Just this one official and some copies..
[10:55] <mustard5> I think my DVD told me I could do that so many times and then it wouldnt like it anymore
[10:56] <zborro> Hi everybody
[10:56] <zborro> I am new to linux
[10:56] <emgee> hmm... ok..
[10:56] <zborro> and wanted to know if ubuntu is ok for a newbie
[10:56] <mustard5> zborro, possibly
[10:56] <emgee> Either that or Redhat..
[10:56] <_cosonic> neither startx or X did it...told me to remove /tmp/ .X0
[10:56] <mustard5> zborro, some might recommend other distros
[10:56] <zborro> are there a lot of things to configure manually or it works out of the box?
[10:57] <emgee> easier with a graphical install for a newbie perhaps
[10:57] <mustard5> zborro, most stuff works out of the box, depends on hardware compatibility
[10:57] <zborro> ah ok
[10:57] <mustard5> what is your system like, zborro ?
[10:57] <emgee> mustard5, this other problem about it not even mounting the burned dvd's then?
[10:57] <zborro> it's an athlon 1800
[10:57] <emgee> Any ideas about that?
[10:58] <zborro> with a nvidia
[10:58] <mustard5> emgee, It could be a hardware issue
[10:58] <mustard5> what model nvidia, zborro ?
[10:58] <zborro> mm it's a Geforce 440mx
[10:58] <zborro> and the mother board it's a ECS K7s5 or something like that
[10:59] <zborro> ok i'll do that
[10:59] <mustard5> zborro sound card?
[10:59] <zborro> it's the integrated sound
[10:59] <mustard5> zborro, I'm looking at it...I didnt mean you..I'm checking something about your card
[11:00] <mustard5> zborro, graphics card looks ok :)
[11:00] <zborro> ah thanks!
[11:00] <mustard5> zborro, printer?
[11:00] <zborro> printer is a HP 7660
[11:00] <emgee> Damn this get's me angry...
[11:00] <mustard5> hmmm..not sure about the printer, zborro
[11:00] <Casanova> what is ubuntu's replacement for rc.local file?
[11:00] <zborro> ah ok
[11:01] <mustard5> you might want to look into that first, find out if it will work
[11:01] <Casanova> i want to run a command as root on every boot up.. where do i put it?
[11:01] <zborro> yes now I am going to reboot with the ubuntu 5.10
[11:01] <thenuke> Casanova: into crontab
[11:01] <mustard5> zborro, what type of internet connection?
[11:01] <zborro> thanks a lot
[11:01] <zborro> I have a wireless router
[11:01] <Delvien> How do i fix something like dm@dmlinux:~$ Error: "/var/tmp/kdecache-dm" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
[11:01] <thenuke> Casanova: oh maybe not.. if only when booting hmm...
[11:01] <Casanova> thenuke, ??
[11:01] <mustard5> ah ok...what card?
[11:01] <adam_r> apache and perl : i added execCGI into some config file and i enabled cgi in every directory also, set permissions to 755 but when opening that file it says 403 forbidden
[11:01] <Delvien> ERROR: Communication problem with k3b, it probably crashed.
[11:02] <zborro> it's the integrated net card
[11:02] <thenuke> Casanova: http://<IP_ADDRESS>/search?q=cache:5ipOu5rDI1kJ:ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/07/adding-a-startup-script-to-be-run-at-bootup/+ubuntu+crontab&hl=fi
[11:02] <chito> wat aplication that match for .exe file?
[11:02] <thenuke> Casanova: google answers most questions asked in this channel ;)
[11:02] <Raf256> are there any openGL applications by default in ubuntu (or can I install) to test my 3d card?
[11:02] <emgee> chito, wine
[11:02] <Casanova> thenuke, sorry :D
[11:02] <mustard5> zborro, see if its on the list for a clue on how things might go http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[11:02] <mustard5> woops
[11:02] <mustard5> wrong link
[11:02] <zborro> ok
[11:02] <emgee> chito, .exe files are windows executables......
[11:02] <mustard5> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[11:02] <bluefrog-10> Raf256, glxgears -printfps
[11:03] <Raf256> chito, you can use wine to run windoze
[11:03] <chito> thanks
[11:03] <mustard5> zborro, it all sounds good anyway ;)
[11:03] <thenuke> Casanova: np at all ofcourse :) it was just a friendly advice =)
[11:03] <Raf256> bluefoxicy, ~300 fps on 2600 amd64 geforce 5200 fx, I quess I should install driver from nvidia.com?
[11:03] <Delvien> mustard5 do yo uknow how to fix an error like this http://pastebin.com/413091
[11:03] <zborro> oh great
[11:03] <Casanova> thenuke, thank you :-)
[11:03] <mustard5> Delvien, looking now....
[11:03] <bluefrog-10> Raf256, no, apt-get install nvidia-glx
[11:04] <zborro> I'll try it and let you know!
[11:04] <thenuke> Casanova: from the page I gave the url for.. "After some playing around, I found the best way to run my startup script was to add it at the end of: /etc/init.d/rcS.sh"   I think that is the best way to do it :o
[11:04] <zborro> see you later and again tnx!
[11:04] <Casanova> hmmmmm
[11:04] <Delvien> mustard5 this happend on my last installation and it crashed my stuffs :P
[11:04] <Raf256> bluefrog-10, this will install the same newest drvier as from nvidia.com?
[11:04] <bluefrog-10> Raf256, then once installed    sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[11:04] <zborro> ciao
[11:04] <Raf256> bluefrog-10, what if I have salf-compiled kernel (<IP_ADDRESS> + frsecurity)
[11:04] <thenuke> Casanova: so you do sudo nano /etc/init.d/rcS.sh and on the last line you add the script you want to run like.. /home/casanova/myscript
[11:04] <mustard5> Delvien, it saying your user owns certain files instead of ...I assume root is 'o'
[11:05] <mustard5> Delvien, '0' I mean
[11:05] <bluefrog-10> Raf256, too bad for u, try nvidia.com and good luck
[11:05] <Casanova> thenuke, its just 1 line... can iu just add that line direct.. rather than the file name?
[11:05] <Delvien> mustard5 so how do i fix it?
[11:05] <Delvien> mustard5 reinstall that app?
[11:05] <mustard5> good question, Delvien ...I can only guess
[11:05] <Raf256> bluefoxicy, ok, I suppose it will not be harder then it was in debian?
[11:05] <thenuke> Casanova: oh, yes you can.
[11:05] <Casanova> thenuke, i dont have /etc/init.d/rcS.sh i only have /etc/init.d/rcS is it the same?
[11:06] <mustard5> Delvien, my guess would be change permissions, but might be better to reinstall
[11:06] <thenuke> Casanova: I am not sure :) let mee check it a bit
[11:06] <Casanova> okie :D
[11:06] <mustard5> Delvien, change ownership of files might be bad , might be good
[11:06] <BigBlue-linux> hello gentlemen!
[11:06] <kresten> Hi everybody!
[11:06] <MakiZar> ZZZzzz...
[11:07] <thenuke> Casanova: yes that seems to be the same I think
[11:07] <bluefrog-10> Delvien,  what user are u logged in with now?
[11:07] <Casanova> thenuke, i am having one more problem too... the /dev/dsp device is not given enough permission at boot up... i have to do "sudo chmod 777 /dev/dsp" on every boot to let the normal users use the sound card
[11:07] <Casanova> thenuke, is there a more elegant solution to it?
[11:07] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 my regular one, but have root pw
[11:07] <koala_man> how do I get rid of the google search box in konqueror?
[11:07] <emgee> mustard5, I installed regionset now and it says it can't retrieve region settings from the drive. Is it wise to change them if the don't even exist?
[11:07] <MakiZar> some to ask, it is possible to use some USB key to save parameters of ubuntu ?
[11:07] <emgee> Is there a chanse the drive is region free?
[11:08] <bluefrog-10> Casanova, Delvien if u have created users u must add them to different groups such as cdrom,audio; video ...
[11:08] <thenuke> Casanova: yes there is.. you need to give your users privileges to use that.. and that is done  like ummmmm hmmmmm hmmm :)
[11:08] <MakiZar> ...and how to
[11:08] <mustard5> emgee, do you have a proper commercial DVD movie to put in?
[11:08] <emgee> yeah
[11:08] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 i had to shut down X while k3b was erasing a disc, and now it gives me that error, just reinstalled it and it has same error
[11:08] <emgee> Jeepers creepers.. :D
[11:08] <Casanova> bluefrog-10, i am not in the audio roup.. how so i add myself?
[11:08] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 i am the only user
[11:08] <koala_man> ah silly me, never mind. it was an extention, so for some reason it couldn't be configured by the toolbar configurator
[11:08] <siimo> hi any way to play mp3's on a ubuntu live CD ?
[11:08] <mustard5> emgee, it seems to me its a hardware issue personally
[11:08] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 it wasnt giving me that error message before
[11:08] <nick01> how do I reconfigure the network once ubuntu is installed ?
[11:08] <mustard5> emgee, you had the DVD in when you tried?
[11:09] <emgee> mustard5, yeah but it's so damn selective! I just won't accept it.. :D
[11:09] <MakiZar> -gone-
[11:09] <vengeful> anyone use iglooftp here? i need some help with it
[11:09] <emgee> mustard5, when I tried regionset you mean?
[11:09] <emgee> or what?
[11:09] <mustard5> yep
[11:09] <emgee> yeah
[11:09] <kresten> Has anyone any idea what I should write in my /etc/hosts when getting this error: "sudo: unable to lookup  via gethostbyname()"
[11:09] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 any ideas?
[11:09] <emgee> should I not?
[11:09] <mustard5> yeah, I'm leaning towards hardware issue emgee
[11:09] <siimo> any ideas?
[11:09] <emgee> damn
[11:09] <thenuke> Casanova: let's change to privatemessages
[11:09] <nick01> is there a console tool to reconfigure the network after install ?
[11:09] <emgee> oh well I'll keep trying for a little bit more..
[11:09] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, copy the path which is annoying, and delete it . (it may be better to do it from recovery boot
[11:10] <mustard5> kresten, you will need to edit you /etc/hosts
[11:10] <emgee> Can't afford a new dvd right now.. :)
[11:10] <siimo> Rhythmbox 0.8.8 says there is no MP3 plugin
[11:10] <robotgeek> !tell siimo about mp3
[11:10] <mustard5> kresten, add localhost localhost.localdomain
[11:10] <bluefrog-10> delvien wait...
[11:10] <nick01> how do I reconfigure the network ?
[11:10] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 good cause that would be very hard
[11:10] <kresten> mustard5, yeah, how?
[11:10] <siimo> robotgeek, will it install on live cd
[11:11] <mustard5> kresten, join #flood
[11:11] <bluefrog-10> delvien, before doing that create another user and add him to all your groups
[11:11] <mustard5> I'll take a look at it and you can see mine
[11:11] <bimberi> nick01: edit /etc/network/interfaces
[11:11] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, what woule be hard?
[11:11] <robotgeek> siimo: that i am not sure of
[11:11] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 doing all this just to fix a app that crashed
[11:11] <Raf256> why there are so few applications listed in GNOME, while in KDE almost all programs are listed inside the "start" menu?
[11:12] <nick01> bimberi, and how do I configure the pcmcia card ? cause I'm installing with the hard disk connected to a pc and then put the disk back in the laptop- no cdrom
[11:12] <nick01> the network card
[11:12] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, if you fancy going through all files that may be corrupted in your /tmp/.kde .. feel free
[11:12] <emgee> Anyone got experience using regionset?
[11:12] <emgee> Don't know what 'mask' is..
[11:13] <bluefrog-10> casano
[11:13] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 ok i think i have him added
[11:13] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 what now
[11:13] <bimberi> nick01: wow, that's big jump from "how do I reconfigure the network ?"
[11:13] <nick01> :/
[11:14] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, id      to see what group u r in now
[11:14] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 can i just go into /tmpkde-dm and delete it
[11:14] <nick01> bimberi, so no setup program anywhere in site huh ?
[11:14] <Raf256> how to make my ubuntu install more secure?
[11:14] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 ok  done
[11:14] <nick01> sight
[11:14] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, if something goes wrong, you will have a fallback user..
[11:14] <Raf256> like close some services? install tripwire? use ACL? something else?
[11:14] <Nogimics> hey all, how can I telnet into my ubuntu machine from a Windows machine on the same LAN?
[11:14] <wickedpuppy> Nogimics, telnet ?
[11:14] <emgee> mustard5, Now, when I put the dvd in, totem says "There is no plugin to handle this movie."
[11:14] <siimo> how doi add windows to my boot list it seems to have lost
[11:15] <Raf256> Nogimics, do not use telnet, use ssh, and apt-get install ssh-something
[11:15] <emgee> What plugin does totem use to play dvd's?
[11:15] <bluefrog-10> to add the newly creatd user to the groups u're member do..
[11:15] <bimberi> nick01: not my sight no, sorry

[11:17] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, the name of your newly created user is kuser/
[11:17] <bimberi> nick01: from what i can see ( :) ), you should at least ensure that the "pcmcia-cs" package is installed
[11:17] <Nogimics> lol
[11:17] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 no the KDE user manager, Kuser, app , i used that to add a new user
[11:17] <emgee> mustard5, Ok! Thanks for all the help dude

[11:18] <sword> anyone here properly configured their video codecs?
[11:18] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, so that u can sudo with him
[11:18] <emgee> sword, yeah
[11:18] <adam_r> apache and perl : i added execCGI into some config file and i enabled cgi in every directory also, set permissions to 755 but when opening that file it says 403 forbidden
[11:18] <mustard5> How can you get to root account when you have lost sudo functions?
[11:18] <sword> emgee, a little help :)
[11:19] <bluefrog-10> mustard5, recovery console at boot
[11:19] <Delvien> bluefrog-10 user id = 1000
[11:19] <mustard5> bluefrog-10, thanks
[11:19] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, what's the name of this group?
[11:19] <Delvien> i added him to all
[11:20] <Delvien> it only lists as 3 corrupted files, can i just delete those? and restart?
[11:20] <emgee> sword, Can't remember where I found the specific guide for that but if you follow this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats you'll be on your way anyway..
[11:20] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, yes try then
[11:20] <emgee> the w32codecs and gstreamer stuff..
[11:20] <Delvien> whats the command for removal, rm?
[11:20] <Raf256> what what that program to set size of screen? rotate and resize or something?
[11:20] <Madpilot> Delvien: yes
[11:20] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, sudo rm
[11:21] <Delvien> rm: cannot remove `kdecache-root': Is a directory
[11:21] <bimberi> nick01: googling for 'linux pcmcia <model of card>' might come up with a suggested module, which would hopefully be in ubuntu already, but you could check with a contents search on packages.ubuntu.com
[11:21] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, sudo rm <complete path to you file>
[11:21] <Raf256> how to make  win+T key to start gnome-terminal?
[11:21] <Delvien> ah
[11:21] <Hoster90> Hello where ist the German Channel
[11:22] <sword> yeah apparantly the w32codecs are obsolete or something
[11:22] <sword> at least im not pointing to the sources
[11:22] <Delvien> rm: cannot remove `/var/tmp/kdecache-root': Is a directory
[11:22] <bluefrog-10> !de
[11:22] <ubotu> Bitte gehen sie nach #ubuntu-de fuer deutschsprachige hilfe
[11:22] <Hoster90> thx
[11:22] <Delvien> shoudl i sudo-i?
[11:23] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, sudo rm <complete path to you file>
[11:23] <Delvien> i did do that
[11:23] <Delvien> didnt work
[11:23] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, what was the error?
[11:23] <Madpilot> Delvien: rmdir
[11:23] <bimberi> Delvien: use rmdir instead of rm (as long as the dir is empty)
[11:23] <adam_r> i know nobody who has gotten perl and apache to wrok
[11:24] <sword> lmao@firefox crashing
[11:24] <Nogimics> I got ssh server how would one go about starting it?
[11:24] <Delvien> its not empty !
[11:24] <bluefrog-10> Delvien, sudo rm doesn't ask for confirmation, it just erases the file
[11:24] <Delvien> rm: cannot remove `/tmp/kde-root': Is a directory
[11:24] <bimberi> Nogimics: installing the ubuntu package should start it - "ps x | grep ssh" will confirm
[11:24] <Delvien> sudo rm /tmp/kde-root
[11:24] <gudix> alguien espaol?
[11:24] <Delvien> thats what i get

[11:25] <Delvien> http://pastebin.com/413091
[11:25] <Seveas> sudo rm -r /tmp/kde-root (that'll get rid of it)
[11:25] <gudix> when i compile a program
[11:26] <Delvien> Seveas K3b wont let me erase a disc unless im sudo

[11:32] <Delvien> Seveas how do i do that
[11:32] <Seveas> that's what you get for running kde crap as root...
[11:32] <Delvien> Seveas how else am i going to blank discs : )
[11:32] <Seveas> sudo rm /var/tmp/kdecache-dm /tmp/kde-dm /tmp/ksocket-dm
[11:33] <Seveas> k3b does that for everyone else as normal user...
[11:33] <ompaul> Delvien, it will let you, this is not any other distro this is Ubuntu
[11:33] <Xinfo> hello any help ?
[11:33] <Seveas> Xinfo, paste the complete lspci output on the pastebin
[11:33] <ompaul> Xinfo, wait 10/15 if no answer then ask again
[11:33] <tucoz> Hi, probably a FAQ but... Are the breezy backports opened yet?
[11:33] <Seveas> no
[11:34] <ompaul> Xinfo, or do what Seveas asked
[11:34] <Xinfo> ok ok relax all lol :D
[11:34] <Delvien> Seveas says they are all directories... /sigh , do the -r
[11:34] <Madpilot> tucoz: see the channel topic
[11:34] <tucoz> Madpilot, ah, didn't catch that. Thanks anyway!
[11:35] <ompaul> Delvien, the are all in different root directories -  that is something you should never do
[11:35] <Delvien> Seveas umm , all my applications are gone on KDE desktop .
[11:35] <Seveas> reboot
[11:35] <Delvien> brb
[11:35] <Seveas> it's all /tmp so should not matter
[11:35] <Seveas> if it does, KDE is really stupid
[11:36] <leagris> hello
[11:36] <mustard5> welcome leagris

[11:36] <selinium> ompaul, lol
[11:36] <Raf256> ubuntu is not bad as well though
[11:37] <selinium> Flame Flame Flame Flame
[11:37] <Raf256> can I build own commercial CD basing on ubuntu?
[11:37] <milen> zdraveite
[11:37] <milen> ima
[11:37] <Seveas> Raf256, probably not
[11:37] <milen> li BULGARI?
[11:37] <Raf256> like - put there my application and put it to auto-start, delete meany other packages and re"compile"
[11:37] <Seveas> milen, this is an english channel...
[11:37] <Sionide> Raf256, commercial as in you'd make money for selling it ?
[11:37] <Raf256> Seveas, but I can basing on Debian, right?
[11:37] <Raf256> Sionide, yes
[11:38] <Seveas> Raf256, no
[11:38] <Raf256> Sionide, and my application will be closed-source
[11:38] <emgee> Anyone got experience of getting gnome-btdownload working behind a router?
[11:38] <Sionide> why??
[11:38] <milen> Can you tell my Is at Ubuntu HAVE jpg.bmb,wav.avi.mpg
[11:38] <Seveas> lots of licenses will prohibit that
[11:38] <Nogimics> Where Do I install a bash profile file on my system ?
[11:38] <milen> Can you tell my Is at Ubuntu HAVE jpg.bmb,wav.avi.mpg
[11:38] <Sionide> use a closed-source OS to base it on then Raf256
[11:38] <Raf256> milen, ?
[11:38] <Raf256> Sionide, why?
[11:38] <Madpilot> emgee: I'm behind a router, and torrents work fine...
[11:38] <bluefrog-10> Seveas, depends on what he means by commercial..
[11:38] <Delvien> seveas back
[11:39] <Seveas> Raf256, you CAN make a derivative CD with your app on it, but you must provide the sources for everything but your app
[11:39] <Raf256> Silencer, debian is open-source and allows to use it as a base for closed source one?
[11:39] <Raf256> Seveas, oh, ok, that is acceptable.  basing on ubuntu or debian or both?
[11:39] <selinium> Seveas, if Raf256 is only selling his app. the distribution of ubuntu is irrelivant, is it not?
[11:39] <Delvien> seveas its STILL giving me the error
[11:39] <hit3k> Debian is a big mother effer with its 7 CD's
[11:39] <selinium> Seveas, you type quicker than I!
[11:39] <Silencer> ????
[11:39] <Seveas> selinium, well, some software licenses are really awkward
[11:40] <Raf256> yes, actually I would like to strip down everything but gnome and libraries (and basic system tools) to make a livecd of my application
[11:40] <Raf256> I would like to leave firefox, perhaps some small utils, and that is it
[11:40] <burepe> Hey one of ya'll tell me how to change my ports in bittorrent command line?
[11:40] <tucoz> leagris, what is the problem with the dvd-writer?
[11:40] <Seveas> Raf256, afaik that is legally allowed, but you must be able to give people the sources of everything but your application at no higher cost than what it costs you to give them
[11:40] <leagris> I am doing a past of the errors
