[06:14] <elknof1> DoYouKnow: the card is detected, the leds are on, but its just not working...
[06:14] <pocketdrummer> jumbers: We salute you!
[06:14] <elknof1> DoYouKnow: im wondering if its cause i need to conf something by hand...
[06:14] <emma> yes I installed totem-xine. That's what I did.
[06:14] <jumbers> pocketdrummer: I've been using Ubuntu on my IBM Thinkpad, but it's gotten so slow. :( I can't even use Compiz. I had to go in and manually disable it
[06:14] <pocketdrummer> DoYouKnow: the muffin man? (Sorry, couldn't resist)
[06:14] <dogpigeoncow> hi. My friend here just installed 7zip with the add/remove but it doesnt seem to be installed anywhere. wat do i do??
[06:15] <nickrud> emma get the ffmpeg package I mentioned above, it's essentially the extracodecs replacement
[06:15] <jumbers> pocketdrummer: Even with "All effects off", it still slowed the machine down to a crawl, so I had to go and remove it
[06:15] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, ok. try this. open up a terminal prompt and type: ifconfig <interface> down && ifconfig <interface> up && iwconfig <interface> essid <your_aps_ssid>
[06:15] <pocketdrummer> jumbers: Well, that's not good. How's the new machine treating you?
[06:16] <elknof1> emma: why dont u just install the ubuntu restricted package...  in apps>add and remove   show all > ubuntu restricted
[06:16] <Mauser> totem-xine better than totem-gstreamer ?
[06:16] <emma> I did install the ubuntu-restricted-extras
[06:16] <tspier2> Hi. I was upgrading my version of Ubuntu, and I keep getting errors about unmet dependencies. I tried apt-get -f install, and I tried installing the dependencies by hand, but to no avail. Any advice?
[06:16] <kmg> tantric132: this all seems to be in order!
[06:16] <dogpigeoncow> hi. My friend here just installed 7zip with the add/remove but it doesnt seem to be installed anywhere. wat do i do??
[06:16] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, this will go around network manager
[06:16] <nickrud> dogpigeoncow: the p7zip in ubuntu is a command line program, not a gui
[06:16] <elknof1> !paste
[06:16] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[06:17] <nickrud> Mauser: in some ways, in the future hopefully not
[06:17] <Mauser> ty
[06:17] <jumbers> pocketdrummer: I don't know yet, I only placed the order a couple of hours ago :D
[06:17] <astro76> dogpigeoncow: it's command line but once you install it the built in archive manager (file-roller) will handle 7zip
[06:17] <astro76> dogpigeoncow: or so I'm told
[06:17] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, and will allow you to see if the problem is part of the core wireless APIs
[06:17] <Mauser> i couldn't get totem-gstreamer to work, except the audio channel
[06:17] <tantric132> kmg, just PM me on the forums if you think of anuything. im about to fall asleep. forum name is tantric132.
[06:18] <Mauser> then installed vlc
[06:18] <Blaergh> Is this where I can get Ubuntu installation help?
[06:18] <kmg> tantric132: ok yeah i need to go get some food anyway
[06:18] <dogpigeoncow> nickrud: so how do i use it then? because we downloaded a torrent today and hte file extension is .7z
[06:18] <elknof1> DoYouKnow: i just cant take down eth0 cause im working with it... but ill send you the retro with ifconfig and iwconfig
[06:18] <dogpigeoncow> so wat do i do then?
[06:18] <nickrud> dogpigeoncow: I'm installing it now, to test astro76's theory ;)
[06:18] <dogpigeoncow> or wats a better uncompressor to use
[06:18] <dogpigeoncow> ok sure :P
[06:18] <tantric132> kmg, thanks for the help!
[06:18] <tantric132> goodnight everyone!
[06:18] <Mauser> gn
[06:18] <kmg> tantric132: i swear you chose the worst possible thing to try with ubuntu, configuring a usb headset
[06:18] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, I mean the wireless interface
[06:19] <kmg> tantric132: just be glad you're not trying to use it with a wine app
[06:19] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, try this on the wireless interface
[06:19] <kmg> tantric132: later
[06:19] <nickrud> dogpigeoncow: right click the file, you should be able to open it in the archive manager
[06:19] <egc> my usb headset worked
[06:19] <Blaergh> Alright, I just have a quick question. I have 2 hard drives and Windows XP, and would like to dual-boot Ubuntu and Windows. (I already have the LiveCD) - anyway, when it asks me to install, it asks me if I would like to partition my slave drive (the drive i want to install it on). will partitioning my slave drive delete all the files I already have on it?
[06:19] <tantric132> kmg, heh...oops!
[06:19] <nickrud> dogpigeoncow: astro76 was right
[06:19] <kmg> egc: yeah but what did you have to do to configure it? =P
[06:19] <emma> who was it that told me about libxine-ffmep ?
[06:19] <nickrud> emma: me, libxine1-ffmpeg
[06:20] <DoYouKnow> so if your wireless interface is eth1, type: ifconfig eth1 down && ifconfig eth1 up && iwconfig eth1 essid <your_aps_ssid>
[06:20] <egc> kmg: don't remember now, that was like a while two months ago :P
[06:20] <vincenz> How do I set the time/
[06:20] <emma> nickrud - You. Are. A. Genius.
[06:20] <egc> hehe
[06:20]  * nickrud blushes
[06:20] <elknof1> DoYouKnow: yeah, i've already tryied that...
[06:20] <kmg> egc: i've always had to go at it from command line at least just to get firefox to play through it
[06:20] <egc> yeah i had it going for skype
[06:20] <elknof1> DoYouKnow:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55573/
[06:21] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, ok, have you tried looking up your card in launchpad?
[06:21] <emma> nickrud -- I have no idea how you could know something so esoteric but that was just what it required! I just restarted the computer after I installed that. And now I can listen to it in Firefox!
[06:21] <elknof1> DoYouKnow: no clue..  what is launchpad?
[06:21] <kmg> egc: the sound manager just seems to only have effect on really integrated gnome apps like mplayer and such
[06:21] <thinman1189> I installed privoxy but it doesn't show anywhere. anyone know how to start it?
[06:21] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, it's ubuntu's bug tracking system
[06:22] <nickrud> emma: I learned from someone else.
[06:22] <egc> im getting defeated by totem-gstreamer right now though
[06:22] <pocketdrummer> Jack_Sparrow: Is there a list of those ! commands you use?
[06:22] <Mauser> Blaergh: i used the windows admin tools to create free space on my drive then followed the install through its process, and now i dual boot
[06:22] <achandrashekar> any ltsp experts present? - specifically with multiserver setup?
[06:22] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, are you using WPA or WEP?
[06:23] <DoYouKnow> or you're not even getting that far
[06:23] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, (or none at all?)
[06:23] <xTheGoat121x> I've been considering changing my wireless network's protection from WEP to WPA... does Feisty support WPA?
[06:23] <aoisora> Excuse Me!! I Use Ubuntu7.10 , And I Use Weberp Php Program . But Weberp's Language File Is .po , I Can't Change Language . I Am Not Sure That I Don't Install Some Packages . Please Tell Me Thank You !! (PS:Apache2.2.4 Php5.2.3 Mysql5.0.45)
[06:24] <kmg> huh?
[06:24] <elknof1> DoYouKnow: none
[06:24] <Blaergh> when it asks to partition my hard drive on the Ubuntu install screen, does that mean it will delete all the information on my hard drive? or will all my data be safe?
[06:24] <visualdensity>  /quit
[06:25] <bossmanbeta> I dont use wep or wpa... I SSH -D (dynamic proxy) from my wireless to a local wired-box on my lan .... much better than wep or wpa
[06:25] <emma> nickrud but how can a person know what all those lib-type files mean or do or how they change names or when they are called for?
[06:25] <Blaergh> oops, sorry mauser, missed your info. thanks
[06:25] <Mauser> Blaergh: install to the free space on you hd
[06:25] <Blaergh> alright, wish me luck. happy linuxing >.>
[06:25] <preaction__> how do i find what /dev/* node my USB mass storage is? lsusb just says "Maxtor" and /dev/sd* gives me only the two hard drives I had before
[06:25] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, ok. try "dmesg | grep radio" in a terminal
[06:25] <TehLulze> Does anyone know if there is an IRC that helps people with python?
[06:26] <astro76> TehLulze: #python
[06:26] <DoYouKnow> elknof1, check if it tells you radio on or radio off
[06:26] <Mauser> else goto ubuntuforums.org
[06:26] <nickrud> emma: some of it's a matter of experience, and using the right tools. For example , to be sure I got the lib name right I did   apt-cache depends xine-ui  (the standard xine frontend) which recommended the library.
[06:26] <TehLulze> astro76 thanks
[06:26] <nickrud> emma: and a _lot_ of google
[06:26] <emma> I see. apt-cache depends..
[06:27] <emma> i've never heard of that command. That tells you all the dependencies of xine-ui ?
[06:27] <nickrud> yes
[06:27] <emma> that's a good one!
[06:27] <elknof1> DoYouKnow: i did this   sudo iwconfig wlan0 power on     but next time i iwconfig it appears off
[06:27] <nickrud> emma: it tells you the top level depends. Each of those packages that get listed have their own depends, and so on
[06:27] <emma> The libfiles seem very esoteric to me. I don't really know what they do or when they are called for. They are like mysteries.
[06:28] <emma> I wonder if you have a big hard drive if you are just supposed to download every single libfile you see, just in case, until whatever you want works.
[06:28] <jerrym> i have an old version  5.xx  how do i update ubuntu?
[06:28] <aoisora> Can someone help me about me problem thank you !!
[06:29] <nickrud> emma: about 95% of the time you don't ever need to know about the libs. It's the complications created by media licensing and patents that causes people to know that one
[06:29] <emma> I see
[06:29] <DoYouNo> elknof1, type "dmesg" and check if you see anything on whether your radio is turned on or off
[06:29] <DoYouNo> in a terminal
[06:29] <emma> So perhaps, with most software, the makefile will include the libs
[06:30] <chowner> my grub is all black!
[06:30] <nickrud> emma: no, the makefile will call those libs. If you get into compiling, you'll need to know about libs 100% of the time ;)
[06:30] <kmg> emma: they just each provide different functionality, different apps require different functionality, applications are kind of built on top of lib dependencies that provide base functionality
[06:30] <chowner> I need help with getting the right menu.lst , its not happening for me
[06:30] <Dimitree> How can i make PHP work ? I have installed LAMP from Synaptic and i have put phpbb3 files in www but when i go to localhost the browser trys to download the page instead of opening it ? i checked in services it says database is running and apache is running ? any idea ?
[06:30] <kritzstapf> nickrud: or you use a packaged build system like portage :)
[06:31] <Mauser> #ubuntuforums
[06:31] <Mauser> ?
[06:31] <nickrud> kritzstapf: or apt-get build-dep ;P
[06:31] <chowner> grubs insta
[06:31] <kritzstapf> nickrud: right ;)
[06:31] <TehLulze> Hmm says I need to be identified to join #python?

[06:31] <nickrud> oops, kritzstapf sorry
[06:31] <chowner> Im trying to boot off my secondary drive
[06:31] <kritzstapf> nickrud: huh? :D
[06:31] <speeddemon8803> lol...whoops
[06:32] <nickrud> speeddemon8803: at least you're talking to the right person
[06:32] <elknof1> DoYouknow doyouno: ok sending it...
[06:32] <speeddemon8803> true
[06:32] <elknof1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/55574/
[06:33] <elknof1> i have no clue what is all that haha...  ive been here for about a week
[06:33] <chowner> I got my grub menu looking fine, but when it boots kernel on secondary drive, it brand new install
[06:33] <DoYouNo> elknof1, it's getting late... if I see you on tomorrow I'll help you w/ it. But I would check at what stage the wireless driver is functioning at. 1) check if the driver is fully loaded and the radio is on 2) check what network manager thinks of the situation, and higher level ubuntu-specific stuff I'm not yet familiar with. Also, there is a network troubleshooting guide on the wiki. otherwise, ask someone else here
[06:34] <thinman1189> if I'm running privoxy how do I find out what my ip is?
[06:34] <chowner> alls I get is black screen and Please wait on one of the tty's
[06:34] <emma> would it be so difficult to make one monster-lib that just fills up ubuntu with all the libs you'll ever need?
[06:34] <elknof1> doyouno, thanks dude
[06:35] <DoYouNo> elknof1, "WW:This driver has EXPERIMENTAL support for this chipset."
[06:35] <DoYouNo> note that
[06:35] <emma> or there could be like a lib-repository where any program that needs a lib can look and download it.
[06:35] <chowner> emma : you got a monolithic kernel, now you want a monolithic library? lol...
[06:35] <DoYouNo> also note that there are a bunch of repeating messages in your dmesg log and finally a "link not ready" error
[06:35] <DoYouNo> gnite
[06:35] <chowner> or theres a program that downloads what you need
[06:36] <eden_> alone?
[06:37] <chowner> eh
[06:39] <vincenz> How do I change the timezone?
[06:41] <thinman1189> I have privoxy on but it doesn't seem to be working. if I check my ip online it hasn't changed. anyone know why?
[06:41] <kromek> #l2-aurora
[06:42] <speeddemon8803> !privoxy > speeddemon8803
[06:43] <bullgard4> "detlef@MD97600:~$ LANG=C apropos apt-check: apt-check: nothing appropriate." Where can I find a description of the apt-check command?
[06:43] <thinman1189> !privoxy
[06:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about privoxy - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[06:45] <nickrud> bullgard4: for that, you'll need to read the source , /usr/lib/update-notifier/apt-check
[06:47] <bullgard4> nickrud: Thank you very much for your help.
[06:48] <starked> Hey, is anybody here familiar with kiba-dock? I can't seem to enable physics in it.
[06:49] <thinman1189> I'm using privoxy but it doesn't seem to be working. does anyone use?
[06:50] <mkbernard> is there a way to see all the packages i have manually installed with apt-get
[06:52] <speeddemon8803> !apt
[06:52] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[06:54] <simi> hi, does anyone know if evolution-data-server-2.22 eating lot of CPU (>60%) on Ubuntu 8.04 is a bug or is indexing something?
[06:56] <bazhang> !hardy | simi
[06:56] <ubotu> simi: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE PRE BETA (ALPHA) SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[06:56] <vincenz> How do I change my clock?
[06:56] <vincenz> I want to change the timezone of my system
[06:57] <Cpudan80> vincenz: right click the clock on the panel, adjust date and time (root access required)
[06:57] <simplechat> heyyas, i've had a look at this: http://it.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=08/02/10/2011257 and i've noted the current kernal version for ubuntu 7.10 is one of those listed as vulnerable
[06:57] <simplechat> how do i find what kernal modules are currently loaded? (to know if i'm vulnerable?)
[06:58] <simplechat> its an exploit in vmsplice, apparently
[06:58] <preaction__> simplechat, uname -a
[06:58] <vincenz> Cpudan80: I don't have a gui
[06:58] <simplechat> ah, ok
[06:58] <simplechat> ah, that doesn't show it?
[06:58] <simplechat> preaction__, ?
[06:58] <abdulla> hey all , i want to make a timed wallpaper changer like in KDE please
[06:58] <Cpudan80> vincenz: time-admin --help
[06:58] <KAsss> Hi. What program can I use to convert mp3 files into .amr files (that can be recognized in a cell phone) ?
[06:58] <simplechat> abdulla, wallpaper tray
[06:58] <preaction__> simplechat, yes it does.
[06:59] <vincenz> Cpudan80: that seems to be non std?
[06:59] <preaction__> simplechat, mine says: Linux ubuntu 2.6.22-14-generic, ...
[06:59] <simplechat> preaction__, so i don't have any kernal modules? (not even the ones tc installes, or the ones installed by vmware, etc.)
[06:59] <simplechat> yeah
[06:59] <simplechat> thats the kernal version
[06:59] <abdulla> simplechat, whwat is that and link please
[06:59] <vincenz> Cpudan80: found it
[06:59] <preaction__> simplechat, then lsmod for the modules
[06:59] <simplechat> 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP
[06:59] <MrPiracy> anyone knows if there's a problem with tuxfamily.org right now? i cant do apt-get update from it, but i can ping with no problems
[06:59] <Cpudan80> vincenz: That's what the right clicking bit does.... dont know what else to tell you
[07:00] <prakriti> is there a way with apt-get or aptitude to "downgrade" a package?
[07:00] <simplechat> ok, ubuntu isn't vulnerable
[07:00] <simplechat> abdulla, sudo apt-get install wallpapertray iirc
[07:00] <preaction__> any idea why my USB drive doesn't get a /dev/hd or /dev/sd node assigned to it?
[07:01] <bazhang> !info wallpapertray
[07:01] <ubotu> Package wallpapertray does not exist in gutsy
[07:01] <bazhang> !find wallpaper
[07:01] <ubotu> Found: gutsy-wallpapers, kdewallpapers, blubuntu-wallpapers, edgy-community-wallpapers, edgy-wallpapers (and 8 others)
[07:02] <speeddemon8803> !find flight
[07:02] <ubotu> Found: flight-of-the-amazon-queen, flightgear
[07:02] <Nehal> is there a tool to adjust the horizontal/vertical position of my X11 screen, without using xvidtune and editing the configuration files manually?
[07:02] <urak> Hey guys, Im new to Linux and I have just install gutsy on my vaio laptop but the memory stick reader is always on
[07:03] <speeddemon8803> Elaborate urak
[07:03] <abdulla> guys can we make an XFCE look like GNOME? and be used similar to GNome ? or is their a difrence because i dunno if its customizable easily l ike gnome is
[07:04] <ianm_> what's the consensus these days, ATI or nVidia if Intel's offerings aren't fast enough?
[07:04] <speeddemon8803> abdulla, right click a bar, click add new item, add all the items you want, xfce can be configured just by doing that to look exactly like gnome.
[07:04] <urak> overall the desktop is nice but my problem is that the memory stick is always on even though I did not insert anything on it
[07:05] <Dimitree> What is the best Linux for a web server ? does ubuntu have a web server distribution or something like that ? :)
[07:05] <speeddemon8803> !server
[07:05] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[07:05] <bazhang> #ubuntu-server
[07:05] <Dimitree> thank you :)
[07:05] <speeddemon8803> Bazhang, they were just asking if we had a server distro..not what room it was :)
[07:05] <bazhang> hehe
[07:06] <speeddemon8803> close enough though!
[07:06] <speeddemon8803> :)
[07:06] <abdulla> simplechat, is drapes better then wp changer?
[07:07] <abdulla> i am considering of installing XFC now :D
[07:07] <speeddemon8803> You should...its a lot lighter on your hardware than gnome
[07:08] <speeddemon8803> if you have a older computer...it will work REALLY well..heck even a new pc works awesome
[07:08] <abdulla> im using a p4 2 ghz laptop  512ram 32mb nividia
[07:08] <abdulla> but gnome lags sometimes :S
[07:09] <^futuro> Hi to all
[07:09] <speeddemon8803> you should just do the alternative installer of ubuntu
[07:09] <abdulla> i just hope its easy to do things like in gnome its easy to install themes and use it
[07:09] <abdulla> what do you mean speeddemon8803 ?
[07:09] <speeddemon8803> !alternative
[07:09] <ubotu> The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode installation CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD.  It can also be used as an upgrade CD. - See also !minimal
[07:09] <^futuro> vista block hdd???
[07:09] <ianm_> abdulla: lags how?
[07:09] <speeddemon8803> !minimal
[07:09] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[07:09] <bazhang> ^futuro: ##windows is for vista ;]
[07:10] <speeddemon8803> i install the alternative cd on every pc i have...just so theres no fuss from them.
[07:10] <speeddemon8803> it works great.
[07:10] <abdulla> it lags as when i start 8 things in same time it takes time to open about 11 seconds to have them all opened then
[07:10] <speeddemon8803> but..its text-mode...meaning no graphical user interface
[07:11] <abdulla> ianm_, but if i open 1 app at a time it takes less then 2seconds however im a person who hate lag ;)
[07:11] <speeddemon8803> Abdulla...i highly suggest the alternative cd for you :)
[07:11] <abdulla> alternative what do yo u mean speed/
[07:12] <abdulla> i saw that their is alternative download but i didnt know what that means speeddemon8803
[07:12] <speeddemon8803> its for pc's with less than adequate RAM for the live cd
[07:12] <abdulla> im on laptop not pc speeddemon8803 and whats the minimal adequate ram then?
[07:12] <Templario> hi i have a ubuntu but have a bug
[07:12] <Templario> in kernel?
[07:12] <julio_p> i gotta go guys!
[07:13] <speeddemon8803> its like 256mb i think
[07:13] <Templario> im bugged?
[07:13] <bazhang> Templario: been reading slashdot?
[07:13] <Templario> yeah
[07:13] <^futuro> exuseme
[07:13] <Templario> julio_p sorry
[07:13] <speeddemon8803> your excused....i think
[07:13] <speeddemon8803> :)
[07:13] <julio_p> Don't chat with Templario !!! He's playing with us!

[07:17] <travisat> well no he doesn't, there is a security bug in linux's kernel at the moment
[07:17] <speeddemon8803> I had to :/

[07:18] <bazhang> offtopic julio_p ^futuro
[07:19] <julio_p> that ubotu is being each day worst!
[07:19] <bazhang> templario if you have vmsplice--there is a fix already though
[07:19] <julio_p> bazhang, he go away
[07:20] <Benalex> Hello all, is there a program to convert doc files into pdf
[07:20] <julio_p> My website is: http://inglesnow.wordpress.com
[07:20] <julio_p> ^futuro, my site's portuguese
[07:21] <mafrac> Hi all
[07:21] <julio_p> ^futuro, but i can chat with you
[07:21] <speeddemon8803> Helo mafrac
[07:21] <mafrac> anybody knows about bind configuration?
[07:22] <bazhang> Benalex: try print to pdf in open office
[07:22] <mafrac> i.e.: the domain some.com has ns1.example.com and ns2.example.com as dns, but in this dns is't there a zone created for some.com. I would like to point some.com to a default ip to park it.
[07:23] <Benalex> bazhang: thank.. trying it now
[07:23] <bazhang> np
[07:23] <ali> Hello
[07:24] <ali> I have Intel Core2 Duo
[07:24] <bazhang> ask away ali
[07:24] <ali> and installed Ubuntu i386 before a while
[07:24] <crolle17> searching for a file (with "test" in its name) in a specific folder i have to do this,  right? locate -d /home/crolle *test*
[07:25] <ali> should I switch to the 64bit version?
[07:25] <bazhang> ali the benefits are minimal at this point unless you do video compositing or have 4GB or ram or more
[07:26] <bazhang> ali plus you need to completely reinstall ;]
[07:26] <mahmoud2> ali: No, not unless you have a reason to move to 64bit.
[07:26] <_Oz_> man
[07:27] <ali> bzagang: so if I want to switch to 64bit, I must reinstall the whole system?
[07:27] <_Oz_> I am still confused by ubuntu's filesystem
[07:27] <speeddemon8803> yes ali
[07:27] <bazhang> yes ali
[07:27] <_Oz_> which says everything about how stupid I am
[07:27] <_Oz_> WHERE do applications install??
[07:27] <_Oz_> what is the equivalent of C:/Program Files ??
[07:27] <speeddemon8803>  /sbin
[07:27] <bazhang> !filesystem
[07:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about filesystem - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:27] <ali> ok, thanks
[07:27] <bazhang> np
[07:28] <speeddemon8803> sbin is the program files equivalent for ubuntu
[07:28] <_Oz_> speeddemon: /sbin does not appear on the fulesystem hierarchy standard
[07:28] <mahmoud2> _Oz_ : do not take it like that there is an exact equivalent of the stuff in Windows
[07:28] <speeddemon8803> i believe
[07:28] <mahmoud2> speeddemon8803: sbin is not the program files equivalent
[07:28] <_Oz_> mahmoud2: right on, I agree, I just wanted some kind of comparison
[07:28] <speeddemon8803> or is it bin
[07:28] <_Oz_> I just don't know where the hell anything is floating around in here
[07:28] <speeddemon8803> heck i dont know either...thought i did...ill shut up now
[07:28] <crolle17> _Oz_, in most cases it's the /usr-folder
[07:29]  * speeddemon8803 is sorry for confusion
[07:29] <^futuro> I cant find on google
[07:29] <_Oz_> where in the /usr folder?
[07:30] <bazhang> find what ^futuro
[07:30] <speeddemon8803> go to /
[07:30] <^futuro> how to install ubuntu on fujitsu siemens on amilo li 1705
[07:30] <mahmoud2> _Oz_ : there is an exact program files equivalent .. In most Linux distributions .. libraries , help documents and binaries are saved separately
[07:30] <speeddemon8803> then go to the usr folder
[07:30] <gejr> _Oz_: in linux often programs install like this: /usr/bin <- executables /etc/ <- configuration files /home/<user>/.<somefile> <- personal configurations
[07:30] <mahmoud2> _Oz_ : there is not*
[07:30] <node> There is a patch for this bug on lkml.org already. For the 2.6.24 and I believe 2.6.22
[07:30] <crolle17> _Oz_, hard to say. sometimes /usr/lib or /usr/share. depends on the app
[07:30] <mahmoud2> _Oz_: Are you trying to locate something?
[07:30] <node> Very simple patch.
[07:30] <mahmoud2> !locate | _Oz_
[07:30] <ubotu> _Oz_: locate is a command-line file search utility. To make sure its cache is up to date run: sudo updatedb
[07:30] <bazhang> ^futuro: you tried the livecd?
[07:31] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LinuxFilesystemTreeOverview is a good page to see where ubuntu puts things
[07:31] <speeddemon8803> bastid
[07:31] <outsiders> !locate
[07:31] <speeddemon8803> i love you!
[07:31] <gejr> _Oz_: bigger suites (like openoffice) might go in /opt
[07:31] <outsiders> !locate usr
[07:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about locate usr - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[07:31] <speeddemon8803> i have been trying to find that..for..a LONG time
[07:31] <_Oz_> thanks, gejr, that was the best explanation I've heard yet
[07:31] <_Oz_> so they go all over the place?
[07:31] <Dimitree> Will i be asked to configure LAN setting during Ubuntu Server installation ? if not what is the command to configure lan from terminal ?
[07:31] <crolle17> _Oz_, in /usr/share are things which are needed in more  that 1 app. like drivers
[07:31] <bastid_raZor> speeddemon8803; i bookmark tons of useful *nix pages
[07:31] <_Oz_> why doesn't that bother anyone that the files are spread out all over the system and it's different for each app?
[07:32] <crolle17> searching for a file (with "test" in its name) in a specific folder i have to do this,  right? locate -d /home/crolle *test*
[07:32] <speeddemon8803> because we dont care where they are as long as they work ;)
[07:32] <bazhang> _Oz_: because its not ##windows ;]
[07:32] <gejr> _Oz_: because the package manager keeps them arranged ;) you can easily see where the programs were installed.
[07:32] <^futuro> yes i have try
[07:32] <^futuro> but live cd don't start
[07:32] <speeddemon8803> 3 answers to the same question..and all correct :P
[07:32] <bazhang> ^futuro: and got what errors
[07:33] <_Oz_> I was trying to figure out where azureus installed so I could tell firefox where to find it
[07:33] <^futuro> screen is black
[07:33] <_Oz_> and I COULD NOT find it
[07:33] <_Oz_> it was a frustrating experience
[07:33] <crolle17> _Oz_, use locate or find
[07:33] <gejr> _Oz_: and i'm pretty sure it's /usr/bin/azureus ?
[07:33] <mahmoud2> _Oz_: use the locate command
[07:33] <_Oz_> just type locate azureus?
[07:33] <^futuro> when i write live install
[07:33] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; normally ~/.azureus is a good place to look
[07:33] <_Oz_> I looked there, bastid
[07:33] <bazhang> ^futuro: you might try the alternate cd as well--what video card in that computer and how much ram
[07:33] <_Oz_> but there appeared to be no, uh...  "program file"
[07:33] <^futuro> google must help me
[07:33] <^futuro> bye
[07:33] <gejr> ~/.azureus is a good place to search for configuration files.
[07:33] <_Oz_> I should have pointed it to a .conf?
[07:34] <crolle17> _Oz_, yeah configuration-files often are in home-dir
[07:34] <_Oz_> I was looking for something along the lines of "azureus.exe"
[07:34] <hydoske1> what's the way to extract an rpm archive?
[07:34] <mahmoud2> _Oz_: no, to the binary
[07:34] <_Oz_> so how do I find the actual binary
[07:34] <bazhang> hydoske1: look for the deb alternative first
[07:34] <crolle17> _Oz_, especially these whom are user-dependent
[07:34] <mahmoud2> _Oz_: Linux executable files are not .exe ..
[07:34] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; binary file is what you are referring to. and if you installed via a package manager apt-get, aptitude or synaptic it would be in /usr/bin or if you installed it manually then /usr/local/bin
[07:35] <hydoske1> bazhang -out of the question, the deb package is missing what I need, it's a known bug
[07:35] <outsiders> hello everybody
[07:35] <speeddemon8803> Please PLEASE watch the hidden files on your system, as like in windows...you start screwing with hidden files...linux can break
[07:35] <hydoske1> I need to extract an rpm - anybody have any ideas?
[07:35] <bazhang> hydoske1: what app
[07:35] <elknof1> gnite
[07:35] <crolle17> searching for a file (with "test" in its name) in a specific folder i have to do this,  right? locate -d /home/crolle *test*
[07:35] <speeddemon8803> !alien
[07:35] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[07:35] <elknof1> thanks all
[07:35] <_Oz_> ok, so I used 'locate azureus' and many files appeared...  which one is the binary?
[07:35] <speeddemon8803> !rpm
[07:35] <hydoske1> bazhang - avr-libc is missing packages for the tiny24
[07:35] <outsiders> !alien
[07:35] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[07:36] <gejr> _Oz_: my favourite way of doing this is: "find / -perm u+x -name "*myprog*"" it search the entire disk (/) for programs that are executable for a user, for a file named "myprog"
[07:36] <bazhang> hydoske1: you will get much grief and likely little support if you choose to go that route--very risky
[07:36] <hydoske1> speeddemon8803 - alien won't do it, i need a file inside the RPM, not to install it
[07:36] <_Oz_> ouch, gejr
[07:36] <Dezine> How can I remove the drive icons for my mounted windows partitions from my desktop without unmounted them?
[07:36] <_Oz_> I am trying to escape windows, but the command line is still something I'm barely capable of handling
[07:36] <hydoske1> bazhang - I need it though, and I'm almost certain it will work
[07:37] <speeddemon8803> Please avoid doing the same command numerous times in a row as it can bog down the bot, and if you must experiment, try /msg ubotu <<!factoid>> Thanks!
[07:37] <hydoske1> I've done a lot of research on it
[07:37] <bazhang> almost certain heh
[07:37] <gejr> _Oz_: i guess locate can do it too, but i never use that. I hate having to do "updatedb" to reindex before every search.
[07:37] <_Oz_> it seems unreasonable to have to remember a command line command like that (or to even have to type it) just to find the file that the app is asking me for
[07:37] <_Oz_> why do you have to updatedb before every search, exactly?
[07:37] <hydoske1> yes, almost certain
[07:37] <gejr> locate keeps a database of all files
[07:37] <bazhang> _Oz_: what are you trying to do exactly
[07:37] <hydoske1> and if I'm wrong, I don't have a mess on my hands "like I would with the alien solution"
[07:38] <Dezine> nevermind
[07:38] <gejr> it updates its once per 24 hours (usually during night)
[07:38] <_Oz_> bazhang: I was downloading a torrent
[07:38] <Dezine> Ubuntu Tweak let me change it
[07:38] <hydoske1> I told you, avr-libc from the repositories has a known bug where it's missing support for the microcontroller I'm trying to program
[07:38] <_Oz_> I wanted azureus to accept the download from firefox rather than save the torrent file to disk
[07:38] <gejr> if you've just installed a program you have to reindex that database to find its files
[07:38] <_Oz_> so firefox said, "Which program do you want to open this with?"
[07:38] <_Oz_> and I couldn't tell it
[07:38] <_Oz_> because I couldn't find it
[07:38] <bazhang> Dezine: ubuntutweak? what is that
[07:38] <_Oz_> (and still can't find it)
[07:38] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; how did you install azureus?
[07:38] <gejr> _Oz_: go to commandline and type "which azureus" ?
[07:38] <_Oz_> add/remove programs
[07:38] <hydoske1> bazhang - I told you, avr-libc from the repositories has a known bug where it's missing support for the microcontroller I'm trying to program
[07:38] <gejr> what does that return?
[07:39] <hydoske1> bazhang - so I need to extract a precompiled file that would add support for this microcontroller from an RPM that has it
[07:39] <_Oz_> well, nothing now
[07:39] <Dezine> It's a program I found looking around online, let's you tweak some settings.
[07:39] <_Oz_> I removed azureus heh
[07:39] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; do the same step you did before with the torrent.. simply type /usr/bin/azureus  .. that is where it is located.
[07:39] <gejr> _Oz_: ah ;)
[07:39] <_Oz_> installed deluge, which firefox somehow "found"
[07:39] <Dezine> bazhang, http://ubuntu-tweak.com/downloads
[07:39] <bazhang> hydoske1: no idea how to do that--sorry
[07:39] <_Oz_> but I was asking so that next time I could do this the right way
[07:40] <_Oz_> this seems like it should be simple but I must be missing something very obvious because I'm still totally confused
[07:40] <_Oz_> I just want to tell the app where it can find a binary
[07:40] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; write this down binary files are located in /usr/bin /usr/local/bin
[07:40] <_Oz_> ok
[07:40] <_Oz_> pretty much always?
[07:41] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; unless you tell them to be in a different place, yes
[07:41] <_Oz_> I just run the package install
[07:41] <_Oz_> and let it do its thing
[07:41] <_Oz_> so I assume they go there, then
[07:41] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; /usr/bin would be where they go if you do it that way.
[07:41] <bazhang> Dezine: that works for you?
[07:41] <Soludra> Is it possible to cause the BACKSPACE key, when using Firefox, to go back a page instead of acting as a page up?
[07:42] <Dezine> Yeah it works just fine
[07:42] <bazhang> dezine then what is the issue?
[07:42] <Dezine> Nothing, I didn't know it could take them off. I just looked again and say it.
[07:43] <Dezine> saw it*
[07:43] <_Oz_> soludra: yes
[07:43] <bazhang> dezine I would guess that ubuntutweak is as well supported as automatix around here ;]
[07:43] <_Oz_> soludra: type "about:config" in your firefox address bar
[07:43] <_Oz_> then search for "backspace"
[07:43] <_Oz_> change that value from 1 to 0
[07:43] <Soludra> Aaah. Thanks.
[07:43] <Dezine> Well I don't need any support for it, was looking for help about the icons but looked at the program for the heck of it and it solved my problem.
[07:43] <_Oz_> You're welcome.
[07:44] <_Oz_> ok, gotta rest myownself.
[07:44] <_Oz_> Thanks, everyone, for the help in trying to make my muddled mind understand the obvious.
[07:44] <_Oz_> I know it's annoying to explain ultra-obvious stuff like.
[07:44] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; command line kicks ass once you learn it
[07:44] <_Oz_> like that, rather.
[07:45] <_Oz_> bastid: I'm sure it does...  and I have been using it more, slowly.
[07:45] <speeddemon8803> i agree bastid
[07:45] <_Oz_> What's the kybd shortcut for terminal?
[07:45] <gejr> _Oz_: keep the spirit up, you'll get used to it after a while :)
[07:45] <_Oz_> gejr: thanks. :)
[07:45] <speeddemon8803> yup
[07:45] <speeddemon8803> it took me like a week
[07:45] <Dezine> What's the difference between aptitide and apt-get and which should I use?
[07:46] <_Oz_> doesn't terminal have a shortcut like the run command (alt-f2?)
[07:46] <speeddemon8803> !aptitude
[07:46] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT. Like other APT front-ends, it can install/remove packages and their dependencies (on Dapper and earlier, however, only aptitude keeps track of unused dependencies). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[07:46] <speeddemon8803> !apt-get
[07:46] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[07:46] <speeddemon8803> You should use aptitude whenever possible dezine
[07:46] <bazhang> Dezine: personal preference really
[07:46] <speeddemon8803> well...true
[07:46] <speeddemon8803> :)
[07:46] <bazhang> heh
[07:46] <Dezine> Ok, thank you. Seems the more I read the more I see "aptitude" rather than apt-get.
[07:46] <gejr> _Oz_: you must define your own shortcuts.. google for keyboard shortcuts in gnome if you don't know how.
[07:47] <bazhang> though apt-get is getting new functions in hardy ;]
[07:47] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; type $PATH  .. that should show you a list of where ubuntu looks for binaries
[07:47] <speeddemon8803> Hardy in general is getting a lot of goodies :)
[07:48] <bazhang> yesh
[07:48] <speeddemon8803> i cant wait
[07:48] <speeddemon8803> and dont wanna break my pc
[07:48] <speeddemon8803> so i gotta
[07:48] <speeddemon8803> 8.04 is LTS correct?
[07:48] <bazhang> gnome is ;[
[07:48] <_Oz_> thanks, bastid
[07:49] <speeddemon8803> hehe
[07:49] <speeddemon8803> sucks for kubuntu and xubuntu users then
[07:49] <_Oz_> gnite all
[07:49] <_Oz_> &
[07:49] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_;  you can use tab to autocomplete names
[07:49] <Dezine> good think I use ubuntu
[07:49] <speeddemon8803> but....those two can easily be installed :)
[07:49] <Dezine> thing*
[07:49] <bazhang> bye oz
[07:49] <speeddemon8803> with sudo apt-get install kubuntu or sudo apt-get install xubuntu
[07:49] <bastid_raZor> _Oz_; in command line tab is your friend ;)
[07:49] <speeddemon8803> yup
[07:49] <bazhang> -desktop
[07:50] <shnastybiznastic> quick question:  I"m wanting to make menuconfig and need to know where ubuntu puts source installed from the package manager
[07:50] <speeddemon8803> heh
[07:50] <speeddemon8803> yeah
[07:50] <speeddemon8803> oops
[07:50] <Dezine> I've tried kubuntu and xubuntu, I'm too used to gnome.
[07:50] <speeddemon8803> me too dezine
[07:50] <speeddemon8803> kubuntu drove me nuts
[07:50] <bazhang> shnastybiznastic: where did you put it?
[07:50] <Dezine> xfce is nice but not my cup of tea
[07:50] <speeddemon8803> it was too "windowsy"
[07:50] <Dezine> yeah
[07:50] <Templario> speeddemon8803 i need help with my kernel
[07:50] <shnastybiznastic> *I* didn't put it anywhere, I simply selected the package marked linux source and let the package manager do it's thing
[07:51] <bazhang> Templario: do you have vmsplice in your kernel?
[07:51] <speeddemon8803> templario, please ask someone else like bazhang, i have no clue about kernels
[07:51] <bazhang> shnastybiznastic: oops misread your question
[07:51] <Templario> not
[07:51] <Templario> i have a bug
[07:51] <Templario> in my kernel
[07:51] <speeddemon8803> we going through that again huh?
[07:51] <Templario> and i need help
[07:51] <speeddemon8803> round 2 right?

[07:52] <Templario> sorry bazhang but i need help with my kernell
[07:52] <Dezine> Ok, for some reason when I log out I have no log in screen. I can get in with startx but I think messing with kubuntu screwed things up. How can I reset it?
[07:52] <speeddemon8803> kernels are not my thing
[07:52] <rettopnam> shnastybiznastic:  did you check /var/apt/cache/ ?  I'm not sure if source files are somewhere else tho
[07:52] <bazhang> shnastybiznastic: slackware? how does this relate to ubuntu?
[07:53] <shnastybiznastic> I'm using ubuntu, but I use to use slackware
[07:53] <speeddemon8803> slackware is super configurable
[07:53] <shnastybiznastic> hence, my quextion is about where the source I just downloaded went
[07:53] <bazhang> Dezine: I suspect ubuntu tweak
[07:53] <speeddemon8803> you build it yourself right?
[07:53] <shnastybiznastic> wait, I think it just downloaded the bzip
[07:53] <Dezine> Nah, I've done it before but don't remember how to get it back.
[07:53] <shnastybiznastic> okay, nevermind
[07:53] <Dezine> I think I set kdm as default.
[07:54] <Dezine> how do I reset that
[07:54] <bazhang> just a general query if any ops are looking in: is ubuntu tweak officially supported by #ubuntu?
[07:55] <Templario> como que resolve
[07:55] <Templario> Coringao
[07:55] <Templario> ?
[07:55] <Dezine> I'm pretty sure that isn't the issue
[07:55] <bazhang> Templario: what is the exact bug, or just too much slashdot
[07:56] <Dezine> I'll try a restart
[07:56] <bazhang> dezine so many automatix users said as well ;]
[07:56] <Templario> have a bug
[07:56] <Templario> bazhang in kernell of ubuntu
[07:56] <Templario> you understand me?
[07:56] <bazhang> Templario: saying have a bug is very non helpful--be precise
[07:57] <razordead> Templario: I probably can't help, but I'm noticing you haven't said what this "bug" is or what you want done about it
[07:57] <spartan> using automatix is asking for trouble
[07:57] <Templario> have a exploit
[07:57] <bazhang> razordead: from the slashdot article I suspect ;]
[07:57] <Templario> the name exploit.c
[07:57] <Templario> get a root user
[07:58] <Templario> in your ssh

[07:58] <bazhang> Templario: disable ssh for starters and stop using the enter key so much

[07:59] <shadow__> the ubuntu boot screen doesnt show either
[07:59] <BubblegumTate> anyone know a good mencoder frontend, besides acidrip? preferably that has updated sometime in the last 5 years
[07:59] <bazhang> dvd rip BubblegumTate?
[07:59] <d7> I notice the preferred applications application is rather limited, how do I change the defualt application for other file types, like torrents, for example?
[07:59] <shadow__> >:o
[08:00] <bazhang> shadow__: how do you switch
[08:00] <shadow__> ctrlalt F1/F2 etc
[08:00] <Templario> isn t a question about english or other language this is a danger bug in UBUNTU and peoaple need to know about this! Have a bug in Ubuntu Kernel
[08:00] <bazhang> d7 what to what do you want to change
[08:00] <bazhang> Templario: stop now
[08:00] <shadow__> it just blackscreens on me with no text

[08:03] <bazhang> Templario: go to #ubuntu-offtopic

[08:03] <BubblegumTate> bazhang: yeah, but it's rmvb to divx/xvid/whatever I'm supposed to call it
[08:03] <shadow__> its just black
[08:04] <Templario> its not a offtopic

[08:04] <M-Nagato> Templario, people already know about the bug
[08:04] <speeddemon8803> Templario
[08:04] <Templario> and need atention
[08:04] <M-Nagato> we don't need you coming in and telling us over and over
[08:04] <speeddemon8803> you were warned
[08:04] <speeddemon8803> numerous times
[08:04] <bazhang> put Templario on /ignore
[08:04] <rettopnam> shadow, do you know the process to login then shutdown in cli?
[08:04] <M-Nagato> if you REALLY want to make the RIGHT people aware, follow the instructions on the launchpad and file a bug

[08:05] <shadow__> i have him on ignore lol
[08:05] <bazhang> speeddemon8803: dont feed the troll ;]
[08:05] <unicum> question: the numerous modules, that are loaded during booting, in which file is the order set, like: first this, then that... ?
[08:05] <Templario> kernel 2.6.17 ao <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:05] <Templario> is vulnerable
[08:05] <speeddemon8803> can i feed the bot? ;)
[08:05] <Templario> kernel 2.6.17 ao <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:05] <Templario> is vulnerable
[08:06] <Templario> dont install ubuntu
[08:06] <bazhang> http://it.slashdot.org/it/08/02/10/2011257.shtml the sky is falling!
[08:06] <iloop> hi my pl2303 serial to usb is not getting detected in kubuntu
[08:06] <Templario> in your machine
[08:06] <Templario> ;)
[08:06] <shadow__> i wish i could blame the ATI driver but even the boot screen is affected by my weird issue
[08:06] <shadow__> nothing shows up until X loads
[08:06] <rettopnam> shadow__: if the TTY is working, you would get request for username, password, then you could send shutdown command sudo shutdown -r now then password, and see if it works.   If so, it could be only display/video based
[08:06] <Templario> I dont read slashdot
[08:06] <iloop> i have loaded all the modules
[08:06] <Templario> bazhang
[08:06] <speeddemon8803> dont let templario fool you ubuntu is very much stable..he is just someone with absolutely no life whatsoever so he freaks out new users.
[08:06] <bazhang> hehe
[08:06] <ethan961> some bots like ubotu are useful... others like Templario... well...
[08:06] <iloop> but the device id itself doesnot show up rite in lsusb
[08:07] <speeddemon8803> I speak the truth.
[08:07] <ethan961> haha
[08:07] <BubblegumTate> wait wait...
[08:07] <bazhang> legacy serial device iloop? which one
[08:07] <BubblegumTate> you not lie?
[08:07] <shadow__> other than the gnome-based terminal i'd have nowhere to type that
[08:07] <iloop> bazhang: bafo 810  usb to serial
[08:07] <bazhang> BubblegumTate: oddly enough vlc might be able to do that
[08:08] <shadow__> i can get CLI in recovery mode just fine
[08:08] <iloop> it has the pl2303 chip
[08:08] <bazhang> iloop: it is a adapter?
[08:08] <iloop> yep
[08:08] <Templario> it does not install ubuntu in its desktop this vulneravel
[08:08]  * bazhang changes the channel topic: beware! dont install ubuntu!
[08:09] <speeddemon8803> LOL
[08:09] <shadow__> lol
[08:09] <Templario> im not lie
[08:09] <speeddemon8803> BEWARE TEMPLARIO IS INSANE!
[08:09] <ethan961> HAHA
[08:09] <Templario> Im not lying ubuntu is vulnerable
[08:09] <speeddemon8803> templario...your momma is vulnerable
[08:09] <M-Nagato> Templario, i'm in your system now. better reboot and never come back to irc!
[08:09] <ethan961> why is he not muted?
[08:09] <Templario> dont install in your desktop
[08:10] <bazhang> iloop: such legacy devices have somewhat spotty support in all systems these days; windows, mac and linux
[08:10] <Templario> kernel 2.6.17 ao <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:10] <speeddemon8803> ok...ill go install it on my server then templario
[08:10] <Templario> is vulnerable
[08:10] <Templario> ssh
[08:10] <Templario> stop
[08:10] <bazhang> ethan961: no ops around
[08:10] <speeddemon8803> you said not on my desktop so my server is ok
[08:10] <ethan961> please, templario, go switch to gentoo then.
[08:10] <Templario> kernel 2.6.17 ao <IP_ADDRESS>

[08:15] <Fujitsu> Templario: Kernel in most Linux distributions.
[08:15] <M-Nagato> from what i remember at least
[08:16] <neville> metvetski it's always best to install Windows first
[08:16] <Templario> im not lying
[08:16] <shadow__> ubuntu has the same kernel
[08:16] <Bodsda> metvetski, but you can reinstall grub, after vista has destroyed it
[08:16] <Templario> ubuntu have a bug
[08:16] <shadow__> as every other linux distro
[08:16] <neville> And, make sure it's also on the first hard disk/partition

[08:16] <Adamrooski> hi everyone
[08:16] <ethan961> gasp, that includes gentoo...
[08:16] <bazhang> metvetski: vista will mess with grub iirc
[08:16] <speeddemon8803> go flood pastebin ya troll
[08:16] <M-Nagato> i think i had grub -> vista -> ntldr for xp and grub for ubuntu because it messed things up x_x
[08:16] <Bodsda> Templario, what is this bug you speak of,.,. ??
[08:16] <Templario> in ssh
[08:16] <ethan961> speed, haha
[08:16] <rama_8086> when i start my system it shows disk boot failure...on the same time if i press contl+alt+del it is working fine...but for the first time when i start system it is showing disk boot failure
[08:16] <Templario> have a bug
[08:16] <neville> metvetski It's bound to have happened sooner or later :P
[08:16] <DrOnline> What's funny about a local user to root kernel vulnerability?  I don't get it =\
[08:16] <Adamrooski> I'm trying to install some realtek audio drivers on ubuntu but every time i run it I gives me permission errors
[08:16] <Adamrooski> I tried running in sudo but it didn't help
[08:16] <M-Nagato> Templario, i think you're lying
[08:16] <tonyyarusso> Templario: The developers are aware of the vulnerability, as it was publicized through all of the normal channels.  You aren't accomplishing anything whatsoever.   See !offtopic for things that are inappropriate to discuss in this channel.  :P
[08:20] <Adamrooski> downloadded from realtek.com
[08:20] <Adamrooski> linux audio pack
[08:20] <Adamrooski> and i run it in terminal
[08:20] <M-Nagato> Adamrooski, does ubuntu not detect it by default or something?
[08:20] <bazhang> Adamrooski: there is no native support for that card in linux?
[08:21] <Bodsda> Adamrooski, keep it on 1 line please m8

[08:22] <bazhang> Adamrooski: make sure the channels are at a higher level
[08:22] <speeddemon8803> im pretty sure
[08:22] <M-Nagato> and not muted ;)
[08:22] <bazhang> indeed
[08:22] <Bodsda> muted = no sound
[08:22] <speeddemon8803> i got a op to come in beginners cuz we were screwing around
[08:22] <Bodsda> i think

[08:29] <metvetski> this one's rebellious

[08:29] <crolle__> how to get the hostname of ip?
[08:29] <shadow__> remember that bug i was talking about with the black screen of death when i switch to CLI.. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/150930 looks like im not alone
[08:29] <ethan961> Bodsa, you spelled "anonymous"wrong...
[08:29] <_ruben> crolle__: use "host" or "nslookup" with the ip as parameter
[08:30] <metvetski> that's because he's a nonconformist!
[08:30] <Bodsda> ethan961, sorry
[08:30] <Adamrooski> bodsda, for some reason i can change all the levels with alsamixer, except for the master, any advice?
[08:30] <DrOnline> Non-conformist or just malformed? you decide.
[08:30] <mike__> can some one help me? how do i get widgets like weather on ubuntu?
[08:30] <metvetski> he's a malformed nonconformist

[08:31] <bazhang> see above mike__
[08:31] <Bodsda> Adamrooski, check out      asoundconf list    how many are there?
[08:31] <_ruben> crolle__: <IP_ADDRESS> is an internal ip address, so unless you have a nameserver in your internal network, you wont get a hostname for that
[08:31] <Adamrooski> just SB
[08:31] <Adamrooski> that's the only 1
[08:32] <crolle__> _ruben, o.k.
[08:32] <Adamrooski> and i set it as default
[08:32] <shadow__> AH! i found the problem
[08:32] <Adamrooski> i'm assuming that is my realtek alx861card
[08:32] <ethan961> I izzz nozz ztownedd...
[08:32] <Bodsda> Adamrooski, ok,.,.hhmm,.,. sorry im not the best with sound,.,. errm,.,. i doubt its your card

[08:34] <ethan961> superkaramba ftw
[08:34] <Bodsda> bazhang, you kde users are traitors/defectors
[08:34] <M-Nagato> Adamrooski, how about doing lspci | grep audio, does it display the correct card(s)?
[08:34] <bazhang> Bodsda: tis true
[08:34] <Bodsda> ;~)
[08:34] <mike__> i am on ubuntu and i guess gnome+compiz
[08:34] <crolle__> DrOnline, i meant the dns-entry. the server is not a windows-one. i think the answer of _ruben was correctly.
[08:34] <Bodsda> way!!! compiz ftw!!
[08:34] <ethan961> haha, the gnome part...
[08:34] <bazhang> mike__: then screenlets should do it
[08:34] <Adamrooski> M-Nagato it doesn't display anything
[08:34] <CVD-PR> im gonna have problems if i install ubuntu64 instead of the 32?
[08:35] <mike__> i try searching for them, can'r find
[08:35] <M-Nagato> hm, it is a pci sound card (or onboard) and not a usb, right?
[08:35] <bazhang> CVD-PR: not much of a benefit at this point
[08:35] <Adamrooski> onboard
[08:35] <Adamrooski> laptop
[08:35] <DrOnline> crolle__: if you meant dns, then yeah his answer was absolutely correct
[08:35] <CVD-PR> 32bit is simply more reliable?
[08:35] <bazhang> CVD-PR: less problematic shall we say ;]
[08:35] <CVD-PR> ok
[08:35] <DrOnline> crolle__: 192.168.x.x is not globally routable so you'd only be able to see it if you were using your own DNS server
[08:35] <Bodsda> bazhang, you lie,. the peasents on 32 can't have more then 2gig of ram!!! hahahah
[08:36] <mike__> how can i install screenlets?
[08:36] <bazhang> mike__: their site has instructions
[08:36] <mike__> k
[08:36] <Bodsda> mike__, ask in #compiz-fusion
[08:36] <crolle__> DrOnline, true.
[08:36] <mike__> just google screenlets?
[08:36] <bazhang> Bodsda: again you got me
[08:36] <M-Nagato> Adamrooski, do you know the exact model?
[08:36] <Adamrooski> Realtek ALC861
[08:36] <Bodsda> bazhang, yay,.,. mwahahah,.,. i will start my own world domination cult

[08:41] <Eagleofnorth> hi guys! this may not be Ubuntu related at all, but I'm having some "surfing problems".... I'm very happy with 7.10 but FireFox can handle as many tabs as i'm used to in XP. It bogs down. I've installed Opera, but that chrashes frequently. Any suggestions?
[08:41] <ethan961> awww
[08:41] <metvetski> and we set their inventors on fire!
[08:41] <ethan961> defeat
[08:41] <metvetski> then we cleaned out their bank accounts
[08:41] <metvetski> we're evil.
[08:41] <Bodsda> Eagleofnorth, Mozilla firefox? sorry im not to familliar with opera
[08:41] <speeddemon8803> dont flood the bot please, if you dont know commands please i suggest you go to the website ubotu has suggested.
[08:41] <metvetski> mwaha.
[08:41] <bazhang> Eagleofnorth: try running it from terminal first and tell us if there are any errors
[08:41]  * ethan961 waves white towel on hockey stick
[08:41] <bazhang> Eagleofnorth: unless it is flash sites that are problematic and there is now a fix for that ;]
[08:41] <metvetski> i commandeer that hockey stick!
[08:42]  * Bodsda see's ethan961's flag, then shots the traitor
[08:42] <mike__> basicly non of the selected options for close lid will work, won't sleep, or screeb off
[08:42]  * speeddemon8803 breaks the stick
[08:42] <metvetski> uh oh
[08:42] <metvetski> :(
[08:42] <Eagleofnorth> yes, many of my regular sites have flash objects.....?
[08:42] <metvetski> i am insufficiently evil to deal with this setback
[08:42]  * ethan961 wasted one of his 9 remaining lives
[08:42] <bazhang> Eagleofnorth: have you had trouble with flash sites recently?
[08:42]  * Bodsda smites speeddemon8803 with a quick swipe of my hammer
[08:42] <bazhang> !ot | everyone cmon!
[08:42] <ubotu> everyone cmon!: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter.  Is there anyone who knows how to solve it?
[08:44] <Bodsda> probably
[08:44] <speeddemon8803> !pda
[08:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pda - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[08:44] <metvetski> when the evilmongering resumes it will be even more evil
[08:44] <Eagleofnorth> they work most of the time. But I like to open ca 25 tabs each morning :)  That works fine in XP, but in Ubuntu Firefox becomes increadibly slow. That is strange, beacuse everything else works much faster in Ubuntu than in Xp...
[08:44] <speeddemon8803> dumb bot
[08:44] <bazhang> prince does it recognize it when plugged in?
[08:44]  * ethan961 finally gets Bill Gates on his side, and then the story is put on hold.
[08:45] <Bodsda> Eagleofnorth, did you disable ipv6 in ubuntu firefox?
[08:45] <bazhang> Eagleofnorth: aha and how much ram for this?
[08:45] <speeddemon8803> bill gates isnt welcome in this room...unless he somehow goes bankrupt and has to switch to ubuntu :P
[08:45] <prince> Yes...
[08:45] <prince> gpilotd recognize LifeDrive
[08:45] <metvetski> well, he won't run microsoft anymore
[08:45] <speeddemon8803> wah wah
[08:45] <speeddemon8803> lol
[08:46] <Bodsda> !lol
[08:46] <ubotu> Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
[08:46]  * ethan961 and billy buys ubuntu and its evil empire
[08:46] <Eagleofnorth> bodsda, I do not know about that.... bazhang: if I run TOP in terminal FF uses 98% in thos cases.
[08:46] <speeddemon8803> !botabuse
[08:46] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (type also /msg ubotu Bot). Don't use commands in the public channels if you don't know if they really exist. Also avoid adding joke/useless factoids.
[08:46] <bazhang> Eagleofnorth:  how much ram?
[08:46] <Bodsda> Eagleofnorth, you can speed up firefox by turnin off ipv6
[08:46] <speeddemon8803> ive used lol most of today...and you are the very first one to whine to me about it...thats...odd
[08:47] <Bodsda> speeddemon8803, that !lol,. was aimed at you,.,.;~)
[08:47] <DrDerek> Co-Worker: "What version of DOS does UNIX run?"
[08:47] <Eagleofnorth> bazhang: I have 1 GB ram in my comp. bodsda: where do I disable ipv6?
[08:47] <speeddemon8803> I am very much aware of that
[08:47] <Bodsda> speeddemon8803, i was bored
[08:47] <speeddemon8803> and the botabuse to you :)
[08:47] <Bodsda> Eagleofnorth, somewhere in ff,.,. lemme check
[08:47] <speeddemon8803> and i was also bored
[08:47] <bazhang> Eagleofnorth: I would use firefox 3 or reduce the number of tabs or get more ram ;]
[08:48] <M-Nagato> an ad blocker might help too, cut down on the useless junk being rendered
[08:48] <metvetski> flashblock could also help

[08:50] <pocketwatch> any tips for ripping to mp3? i can listen to them fine and export an mp3 from audacity, but using sound juicer or rythmbox i can't select mp3
[08:50] <speeddemon8803> !rip
[08:50] <ubotu> For information about the Sound Juicer ripping application see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CDRipping. To rip an Audio CD in KDE, put it in and then put audiocd:// in the Konqueror URL bar

[08:53] <ethan961> oh well
[08:53] <Eagleofnorth> ok

[08:54] <speeddemon8803> so..ive been around for a looooong time
[08:54] <Eagleofnorth> should the last parameter be "false" ?

[09:05] <DrDerek> that was weird
[09:05] <Bodsda> speeddemon8803, but no one asked about kde,.,.they was just talking bout it,.,.;~)

[09:06] <Imaginal> DrDerek: what did you do?

[09:08] <speeddemon8803> today worse than any other day
[09:08] <bazhang> wow
[09:08] <DrDerek> why did it remove the ban?
[09:08] <speeddemon8803> because its temporary
[09:08] <speeddemon8803> all flood bans are temporary
[09:08] <bazhang> just a temp flood ban
[09:08] <elkbuntu> guys, stop giving the spammers attention please
 guys, stop giving the spammers attention please  <-- thumbs up
[09:09] <bazhang> hard to ignore
[09:09] <pabix> Hello. I do not understand why some packages do not appear in synaptic (like libfaac-dev) with multiverse activated in my sources.list
[09:09] <johnny> how about banning them completely?
[09:09] <speeddemon8803> ok, so lets let them flood our room..and cause us to disconnect from exploits
[09:09] <johnny> somebody here has ops.
[09:09] <speeddemon8803> nice one elk
[09:09] <elkbuntu> bazhang, maybe so, but you dont need to comment on them and let the idiots watching the channel get even more kicks from the disruption
[09:09] <Imaginal> My webcam is installed. How do I turn it on? Some programs do it automatically, and others don't
[09:09] <speeddemon8803> elk
[09:10] <bazhang> elkbuntu: you are blaming me for this?
[09:10] <speeddemon8803> most of the "idiots" watching the channel...are away
[09:10] <[adw]> hi, does anyone know if theres any app in apt that manages a lamp install like xampp or wamp does?
[09:10] <speeddemon8803> and...all channel messages are loogged

[09:10] <MenZa> that
[09:10] <metvetski> oh no
[09:10] <MenZa> was quick
[09:10] <elkbuntu> saw that one coming
[09:10] <jpatrick> yep
[09:10] <metvetski> it was, rather

[09:10] <bazhang> elkbuntu that is manifestly unfair--that guy was spamming and ops had just been called
[09:11] <DrDerek> I want an AIDS sandwhich full of ubuntu fail
[09:11] <MenZa> Can we go back to support chat, please?
[09:11] <ethan961> but offtopic
[09:11] <Bodsda> youd think with 28 people in the !ops cal, that someone would hear us
[09:11] <DrDerek> sounds delicious
[09:11] <speeddemon8803> dang...and you called yourself an idiot???
[09:11] <numist> hmm
[09:11] <elkbuntu> ethan961, please dont troll other channels
[09:11] <razordead> [adw]: I don't know of one, but I don't think it's really necessary when you have the package system of Ubuntu
[09:11] <elkbuntu> Bodsda, you'd think, but none of us are paid to do this
[09:11] <elkbuntu> Bodsda, nobody pays me to skip dinner with my folks to babysit
[09:11] <Bodsda> elkbuntu, ah,.,.hello,.,. sorry
[09:11] <DrDerek> you guys should make me an op
[09:12] <[adw]> razordead: yes, but i want to manually start apache/mysql, instead of it starting by default on boot
[09:12] <DrDerek> I'm always on
[09:12] <speeddemon8803> With the flooding in this room...why dont you guys just make another room?
[09:12] <DrDerek> what do you think of that bazhang?
[09:12] <jpatrick> !guidelines > DrDerek
[09:12] <bazhang> DrDerek: right on
[09:12]  * Bodsda thinks bazhang could be an op,.,.maybe
[09:12] <speeddemon8803> maybe
[09:13] <DrDerek> jpatrick :(
[09:13] <razordead> [adw]: does xampp & the like typically have some sort of configuration editor that helps with that sort of thing?
[09:13] <speeddemon8803> i pulled them in beginners....i dunno
[09:13] <metvetski> i don't want to be an op but i think i should be paid!
[09:13] <[adw]> razordead: but found tool called sysv-rc-conf or something, it works...
[09:13] <razordead> [adw]: good
[09:13] <speeddemon8803> !free
[09:13] <ubotu> freedom is important. Ubuntu is as free as we can make it, which means mostly free software. See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing
[09:14] <DrDerek> jpatrick - I'm usually in off-topic, so it may look like I'm new to here.
[09:14] <bazhang> pabix you still around?
[09:14] <[adw]> razordead: anyways, thanks
[09:14] <speeddemon8803> im usually in beginners
[09:14] <speeddemon8803> so thats why everyone thinks im totally new to here
[09:15] <speeddemon8803> until i start throwing commands like theres no tomorrow
[09:15] <MissDjax> crdlb >> ok it works fine with any kind of videoplayer, how about my webcam ? when I see the preview screen in skype it seems to use xv with black flickering window
[09:15] <x_dimitri> does md5crypt use a random salt if no salt is specified?
[09:15] <cy3o3> http://www.rowtow.com/ has teh HIV
[09:15] <crdlb> MissDjax: look for a setting in skype's preferences, I don't know that it has one though
[09:16] <bazhang> cy3o3: not here please
[09:16] <Mushrooms> Hi everyone, a newbie using ubuntu here... and just trying to install it
[09:16] <MissDjax> crdlb no it hasn't.. :o(
[09:17] <Mushrooms> I'm a bit worried because it's been stuck on configuring apt for a while now
[09:17] <Mushrooms> a while as in about 10 minutes already
[09:17] <bazhang> Mushrooms: how long
[09:17] <speeddemon8803> are you using the alternative install mushrooms?
[09:17] <bazhang> Mushrooms: give it a bit more then
[09:18] <speeddemon8803> also known as "text-mode"
[09:18] <Mushrooms> it says here "configuring apt, scanning the mirror" or something
[09:18] <speeddemon8803> thats normal
[09:18] <Mushrooms> the mouse and everything else still responds
[09:18] <bazhang> Mushrooms: is this connected to the internet?
[09:18] <Mushrooms> no, i couldn't get my wireless to work properly
[09:18] <speeddemon8803> now THATS not normal
[09:19] <bazhang> Mushrooms: if it is not connected to the internet then the mirror scan will eventually give up
[09:19] <Mushrooms> TT^TT how long should i be waiting? it kinda looks like a typical 'hang' in windows
[09:19] <bazhang> Mushrooms: best to get an ethernet cable while doing that
[09:19] <Mushrooms> so what should i do?
[09:20] <Mushrooms> just let it time out?
[09:20] <speeddemon8803> it will say commenting out sources.list or some stuff like that if it cant do what it wants
[09:20] <speeddemon8803> yeah
[09:20] <speeddemon8803> let it time out
[09:20] <bazhang> Mushrooms: otherwise those mirrors will be commented out
[09:20] <speeddemon8803> if it times out..no big deal
[09:20] <speeddemon8803> you can get these sources back with a few mouse clicks
[09:20] <Mushrooms> how long are we talking about here... 30 minutes? a few hours?
[09:20] <speeddemon8803> it depends
[09:21] <Mushrooms> oh dear
[09:21] <speeddemon8803> shouldnt be more than an hour
[09:21] <Mushrooms> oh dear
[09:21] <speeddemon8803> ever
[09:21] <speeddemon8803> even with ubuntu studio...which is huge
[09:21] <Mushrooms> wouldn't it be better if i just aborted the installation and plugged in a ethernet cable?
[09:21] <speeddemon8803> no
[09:22] <speeddemon8803> you might screw up your hard drive doing that
[09:22] <g[r]eek> Hi I have a Nokia 9300i and would like to connect to the internet with it. I am using Ubuntu Gutsy Desktop ed. I have the usb cable plugged in. Nokia has software for windows called "nokia pc suite" but nothing for linux. What do I do thanks
[09:22] <JohnRobert> how can I alter the *default* program nautilus uses to open files?
[09:22] <Mushrooms> so... what if it doesn't time out?
[09:22] <speeddemon8803> it will
[09:23] <berto__> Hi all :) More meat for you :) How can I make a keyboard that is not present? Is there any graphic toll like the stuff used in Win?
[09:23] <berto__> I need two of them, depending on the layout
[09:23] <speeddemon8803> like an on screen keyboard?
[09:23] <berto__> one based on the phys layout of the it kb, the other based on standard US
[09:24] <speeddemon8803> hmmm
[09:24] <speeddemon8803> im not sure
[09:24] <speedhunt3r> hey what's the name of the desktop applet that shows you information of your cpu/mem usage, etc ?
[09:24] <Mushrooms> speeddemon8803: here we go... it appears to have timed out
[09:24] <speeddemon8803> great
[09:24] <Mushrooms> thanks for your help ^-^
[09:24] <speeddemon8803> heh
[09:24] <speeddemon8803> your welcome
[09:25] <Mushrooms> what does it mean when it says "commented out"
[09:25] <Stevethepirate> Um.
[09:25] <speeddemon8803> it means it put an # in front of a line in your sources.list file
[09:25] <Imaginal> speedhunt3r: the name or how to find it?
[09:25] <Stevethepirate> speeddemon8803: Not always a #
[09:25] <speedhunt3r> Imaginal, both...
[09:25] <Stevethepirate> any not always in ur source.list
[09:25] <Stevethepirate> but in this case, yes.
[09:26] <speeddemon8803> but.....for what this is talking about yes
[09:26] <Kate_mins> hello , how can move move file via ssh command ? (cp its for copy.. how can i move file location) ?
[09:26] <Stevethepirate> Yeah
[09:26] <speeddemon8803> steve thanks for jumping in when i had it controlled :)
[09:26] <speeddemon8803> heh
[09:26] <Stevethepirate> I just read now
[09:26] <Stevethepirate> soz, irssi fail :(
[09:26] <Stevethepirate> :P
[09:26] <Stevethepirate> Kate_mins: type "man scp"
[09:26] <M-Nagato> Kate_mins, you can use mv
[09:26] <Mushrooms> ok... so i really don't need to worry about the commented stuff right? i mean i can install all of those files that didn't get installed from the repositories?
[09:26] <berto__> yes, I used MSKLC.exe
[09:26] <berto__> to make it 4 XP
[09:26] <Imaginal> speedhunt3r: there is a panel applet. Right click -> add to panel -> system monitor
[09:26] <Stevethepirate> Pretend that any line prefixed with a "#" does not exist.
[09:27] <speeddemon8803> well, you can go to your system tab...go to sources..and click check boxes to uncomment them
[09:27] <speeddemon8803> thats all it takes to get them back
[09:27] <Bodsda> Stevethepirate, please try and keep responses to one line
[09:27] <speeddemon8803> you will probably need to do this...so...go ahead and do it :)
[09:27] <Mushrooms> i see... well not really... i guess i'll need to complete the installation first, connect to the internet and then try to understand what you guys mean >.<
[09:27] <speedhunt3r> Imaginal, I know about system manager, I am talking about the "eye candy" version of it
[09:27] <bazhang> Mushrooms: not to worry, you can re-enable them once you do get online
[09:27] <speeddemon8803> heh, yeah...good idea :)
[09:28] <berto__> if there is easy way, can't I simply cpy the files for the existing bkeyboard, rename them and modify them?
[09:28] <devicex> can somebody tell me more about suse?
[09:28] <Imaginal> speedhunt3r: sorry, I'm no more help
[09:28] <bazhang> Mushrooms: can be done so in synaptic, though a net connection is not optional ;]
[09:28] <speedhunt3r> Imaginal, you can find ppl's screenshots on gnome-look.org who have that on their desktop i forgot the name of the program.
[09:28] <bazhang> #suse
[09:28] <Mushrooms> and hmm... sorry..>.< i might need a hand configuring the wireless too
[09:28] <Mushrooms> but i'll have a crack at it first
[09:29] <bazhang> Mushrooms: what we live for ;]
[09:29] <neko> hi people
[09:29] <bazhang> devicex they have a channel you can ask there
[09:29] <Imaginal> speedhunt3r: maybe if you can find a specific screenshot, someone can identify it
[09:29] <erfan> hi
[09:29] <Bodsda> Mushrooms, although we advise you try thins yourself, if you come here, and tell us what your gonna try, then we no what you've done, and we can stop you if your gonna do anything stupid,.,.;~)

[09:30] <Mushrooms> Bodsda: i'm always scared that ill do something really really stupid >.<

[09:34] <alesan> how do I let thunderbird open links in firefox?
[09:34] <alesan> evolution and many other (even KDE) programs have this function
[09:34] <alesan> if I click a link in thunderbird it doesn not open anywhere
[09:35] <pocketwatch> alesan, system > preferences > preferred applications; you should be able to set a default web browser there
[09:36] <Mushrooms> is there like an ipconfig /all command?
[09:36] <pocketwatch> Mushrooms, ifconfig
[09:36] <Mushrooms> i see
[09:36] <Mushrooms> excellent
[09:36] <Mushrooms> well it appears to be able to ping my router quite easily
[09:36] <Mushrooms> so it 'should work'
[09:36] <bazhang> ifconfig iwconfig for wireless Mushrooms
[09:36] <Mushrooms> lol
[09:37] <nickname99384> iwlist wlan0
[09:37] <nickname99384> for scan
[09:37] <Mushrooms> ok
[09:37] <bazhang> !lamp | rama_8086
[09:37] <ubotu> rama_8086: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[09:37] <Mushrooms> yay ok my wirless is going
[09:37] <bazhang> nice
[09:38] <Mushrooms> thanks a lot guys ^-^
[09:38] <rama_8086> bazhang, iam istalling lamp
[09:38] <bazhang> rama_8086: nice ;]
[09:38] <rama_8086> bazhang, i selected the lamp server
[09:38] <alesan> pocketwatch: it is firefox indeed. but as I said, thunderbird ignores that.
[09:39] <rama_8086> bazhang, i selected the lamp server using tasksel what should i do next
[09:39] <pocketwatch> alesan, that's odd. i use evolution and opera so i dont have any other specific ideas
[09:40] <alesan> thunderbird always had this stupid problem :(
[09:40] <jenda> Hello. I am trying to install a fully encrypted system (mainly /home and swap). I have already done this before, but I am a little lost right now. There are 8 how-tos on the wiki, and I simply don't know which one to use.
[09:40] <bazhang> rama_8086: did you read that link? ;]
[09:41] <rama_8086> bazhang, i am reading...thnx
[09:41] <zuch> java-gnome(http://java-gnome.sourceforge.net/) is not available in ubuntu repos but is a standard with some other repos. I spent a lot of time setting it up on ubuntu. Is there any way I can suggest it to be included? I don't know much about packaging but I can try and help.
[09:41] <bazhang> zuch there is a wishlist you can post to iirc
[09:42] <zuch> bazhang: thanks I will look it up
[09:42] <jenda> The howto I like most ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFileSystem ) is not supposed to work on 7.10 "without modifications", but nobody explains what these are, and the forum thread isn't helpful either.
[09:42] <bazhang> !wishlist
[09:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wishlist - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:44] <speedhunt3r> hey how do I move a directory in cli?
[09:44] <jpatrick> speedhunt3r: mv dir todir
[09:44] <jenda> speedhunt3r: mv yourdir newdir
[09:47] <Mushrooms> alright
[09:47] <invit> slt
[09:47] <Mushrooms> officially now on an ubuntu machine ^-^
[09:47] <Survivorman> Is there a command that I can use to see how much RAM a specific program, Firefox for instance, is using?
[09:48] <Mushrooms> oh noes >.< i ran into some problem again
[09:48] <cpk1> I was in the middle of upgrading to gutsy and it looks like adept zombified, can I kill it and then restart without causing problems?
[09:48] <jpatrick> Survivorman: "top"?
[09:48] <cpk1> Survivorman: 'ps aux
[09:48] <cpk1> without the '
[09:48] <Survivorman> Thanks guys :)
[09:49] <Mushrooms> I tried to download the Opera browser
[09:49] <kuldipz> hi
[09:50] <Mushrooms> it downloaded ok, but when i double click on it an error comes up as "Error:dependency is not satisfiable:libqt3-mt"
[09:50] <bazhang> Mushrooms: downloaded from where?
[09:51] <Mushrooms> opera website
[09:51] <jpatrick> Mushrooms: install libqt3-mt
[09:51] <sobczyk> hi, I have a problem with writing partition table to a 160Gb seagate disk, fdisk seemsto work fine, though no partition table is created
[09:51] <Mushrooms> can i install libqt3-mt from the repositories?
[09:51] <jpatrick> !info libqt3-mt > Mushrooms
[09:52] <sobczyk> Ihe found this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-91538.html , but no solution there
[09:52] <jpatrick> Mushrooms: sudo apt-get install libqt3-mt
[09:52] <sobczyk> anyone have dealt with this problem before?
[09:53] <Mushrooms> >.< it says: E:Couldn't find package libqt3-mt
[09:53] <JangMunho> sobczyk: You tried only fdisk?
[09:54] <jpatrick> !repo > Mushrooms
[09:54] <sobczyk> parted cfdisk qtparted
[09:54] <bazhang> Mushrooms: opera can be downloaded from the canonical gutsy partner repositories; you have to enable them in synaptic
[09:54]  * w0t is going out of town for a couple of days, bbl [amsg]
[09:54] <jpatrick> !away > w0t
[09:54] <sobczyk> JangMunho, and different machines with or withoud a raid controller
[09:55] <JangMunho> sobczyk: Then have you tried Windows installed in that hdd?
[09:55] <bazhang> Mushrooms: it is better to install from repositories--instead of like in ##windows ;]
[09:55] <Mushrooms> i see
[09:56] <sobczyk> JangMunho, no but my friends PC (with XP) seems to deal with it just fine
[09:56] <Mushrooms> so i should be able to search itup from synaptic package manager
[09:56] <bazhang> less chance of breakage that way ;]
[09:56] <Mushrooms> and install it from there?
[09:56] <sobczyk> can partition it etc.
[09:56] <bazhang> Mushrooms: first enable the repo, then refresh reload your sources and search for it there
[09:57] <H8Red> hola
[09:57] <JangMunho> sobczyk: You should first check the jumper on your hdd.
[09:57] <Mushrooms> yikes, now i've never done that before...
[09:57] <sobczyk> JangMunho, tried master/slave/cable select...
[09:57] <bazhang> Mushrooms: not to worry just needs a bit of getting used to ;]
[09:58] <jenda> So, no tips regarding encrypted filesystems? :(
[09:58] <Mushrooms> so enabling the repositories should be done via the terminal?
[09:58] <bazhang> Mushrooms: and as this is a new install, expect many updates waiting once you have refreshed your sources ;]
[09:58] <JangMunho> sobczyk: you've tried that?
[09:59] <bazhang> Mushrooms: you can do that but synaptic is easier to start with
[09:59] <Mushrooms> *sigh* i'm so lost >___<
[09:59] <sobczyk> JangMunho, yes, Its like the drive is ignoring linux :)
[10:00] <JangMunho> sobczyk: So you even put the drive into different machines, but no help, right?
[10:00] <sobczyk> no help at all
[10:03] <JangMunho> sobczyk: I've read about someone had a st hdd, and he found it was noising, but never did he know why until one day he found his hdd was working under sata1 capable mode... There should be another jumper if the hdd is a sata2 one.
[10:03] <sobczyk> JangMunho, it is an ata 100
[10:03] <tikka> Ubuntu, USB.. virtualbox..
[10:03] <tikka> Anyone had joy getting this to work ?
[10:04] <JangMunho> sobczyk: it's quite an old one...
[10:05] <kloot> Get a real operating system fags
[10:05]  * hend hugs kloot
[10:05] <JangMunho> sobczyk: use command "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda" to write zeros to your disk. and use gparted to build the partition table again.
[10:05] <sobczyk> JangMunho, http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=eb8b9be7238b0110VgnVCM100000f5ee0a0aRCRD&locale=en-US
[10:06] <kloot> you use ubuntu because youi cant configure slackware faglets

[10:07] <tikka> kloot: lol I use gentoo, slackware and ubuntu :P
[10:07] <JangMunho> sobczyk: be careful to use that command, you will lose all your data
[10:07] <Mushrooms> ok... i think i got the gist of this... i was able to get as far as enabling the repositories, and then reloading it
[10:07] <kloot> tikka,  you use threee because you cant settle on one
[10:07] <Mushrooms> and then searching for opera was ok too
[10:07] <kloot> because your too scared that you wuill run into a brick wall and not know what to do with slack
[10:07] <sobczyk> JangMunho, i know dd, I used it to backup partitions
[10:07] <stdin> !feeding the troll
[10:07] <ubotu> The above mess was caused by someone who thought it was funny (they're gone now). Please ignore it completely, since discussing it and making a fuss will only make them think they've reached their "fun" goal.
[10:08] <up_the_irons> where can i look to find info on patching my kernel wrt the vmsplice exploit?
[10:08] <up_the_irons> has the patch been backported yet?
[10:08] <Mushrooms> wow awesome, it's a little different to windows, but its pretty easy to use
[10:08] <nfsbz> hi, i got a dell laptop with windows on it. is there a safe way to make a dual boot for ubuntu (without destroying windows)?
[10:08] <jenda> Mushrooms: just wait till you get compiz and the like working :)
[10:09] <Mushrooms> i see ^-^
[10:09] <JangMunho> nfsbz: Windows Vista?
[10:09] <tikka> nfsbz: xp will be added to grub under other operating systems. Vista however.. you need to find out more because I know grub breaks the vista bootloader
[10:09] <Mushrooms> so ok... i got opera installed... i think?? lol i hope..
[10:10] <nfsbz> im on xp!
[10:10] <Mushrooms> oh dude... that was so easy. thanks for your help guys ^-^
[10:10] <ceil420> !wifi
[10:10] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[10:10] <nfsbz> so i just put in the ubuntu cd and can install it safely?
[10:10] <Mushrooms> i'm going to use irc through opera now. brb
[10:10] <nfsbz> -can
[10:11] <ceil420> thank you, ubotu :)
[10:11] <JangMunho> nfsbz: That's easy. Use gparted in the live CD to make a new partition for ubuntu.
[10:11] <ceil420> !botsnack
[10:11] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[10:12] <Mushrooms> alright sweet ^-^
[10:12] <nfsbz> how do i start up gparted? will the cd ask me during installation?
[10:12] <tikka> its an installed application in the live cd
[10:12] <nfsbz> ok thanks
[10:12] <tikka> fastest way, open a console sudo gparted
[10:12] <JangMunho> nfsbz: No, just go to system->management->gparted
[10:13] <jenda> nfsbz: the installer uses partman, another partitioner
[10:13] <tikka> or that ^^
[10:13] <tikka> brb
[10:13] <ubud> if I have disable the restricted ATI driver, what drivers is being subsitute?
[10:13] <jenda> nfsbz: unless you manually tell it to use gparted during the installation (and I don't know the command for that...)
[10:13] <rama_8086> when iam creating a file in /var/www/ it shows error
[10:13] <prahal_> hi sorry to bother you for a non ubuntu specific problem ... I have switched to linux 2.6.24 and now get broken ssid names in network-manager (downgrading fixes ) . Doe this affect other users (I first though it was ipw2200 my driver but it had no real changes in latest monthes so now I am trying to narrow the search)
[10:14] <MissDjax> anyone knows how to start TVtime without xv ?
[10:14] <MissDjax> like for xawtv with xawtv -noxv
[10:15] <rama_8086> i installed LAMP, when iam creating a file in /var/www/ it shows error
[10:15] <ubud> is is recommned to use restricted graphics driver for ubuntu?
[10:15] <prahal_> I am also using nm 0.7 from source though it should be reproducible with 0.6.5
[10:15] <JangMunho> ubud: Yes, ortherwise you may be faced with severial problems...
[10:15] <blackjohn>  έχω έναν παλιό seleron sta 336 mgh   ποιά ubuntu μπορώ να του βάλω για να μην τον πετάξω???
[10:16] <DrOnline> ubud: the answer to that question is more political than anything else, but if it works for you then it's probably best
[10:16] <eth01> blackjohn, this is an English channel only.
[10:16] <rama_8086> i installed LAMP, is PHP  when iam creating a file in /var/www/ it shows error
[10:16] <nfsbz> can a partitioner automatically free a region of disk space if i have some free memory?
[10:17] <Vague> what kind of error rama?
[10:17] <blackjohn> ok sory
[10:17] <ubud> DrOnline: If I used the propietry driver, watching movies is jerging
[10:17] <ikonia> rama_8086 pardon ?
[10:17] <DrOnline> ubud: what driver are you using?
[10:17] <ikonia> rama_8086: what sort of error ?
[10:18] <nickname99384> some people really should just use windows
[10:18] <Imaginal> How do you turn a built-in webcam on? It works if the program knows how to turn it on...
[10:18] <nickname99384> pretty much imaginal
[10:18] <DrOnline> ubud: n/m I need to learn to read up more
[10:18] <DrOnline> ubud: the ATI driver shouldn't affect video
[10:18] <ikonia> nickname99384: there is no problem using windows, everything has it's place
[10:18] <rama_8086> ikonia, for doing php in ubuntu i installed lamp but iam unable to create file in /var/www
[10:18] <ikonia> rama_8086: exaplin "unable to create"
[10:19] <ubud> DrOnline: the ubuntu build in no problem, but when use the restricted windows driver, problems will come
[10:19] <Bodsda> has anyone got any experience with the python IDLE program?
[10:19] <Vague> @rama, maybe you should create with root privileges
[10:19] <rama_8086> when i open /var/www  folder there is no option to create file here
[10:19] <rama_8086> ikonia, when i open /var/www  folder there is no option to create document
[10:19] <DrOnline> ubud: the ubuntu built in driver is most likely the "vesa" driver.  If that works for you and you don't need hardware acceleration than I suggest you use that one
[10:20] <Bodsda> rama_8086, sudo mkdir /var/www/myfolder
[10:20] <Vague> @rama Bodsda got you covered
[10:20] <ubud> Dronline: what is hardware acceration?
[10:20] <Bodsda> Vague, no,.im here for help too,.,.
[10:20] <Bodsda> this happens everytime
[10:20] <JangMunho> ubud: That because when a restricted will drive your card better, but if the hardware or the software has a bug, then problems will come...
[10:21] <DrOnline> ubud: hardware acceleration is using dedicated hardware to draw stuff on your screen (usually 3d graphics)
[10:21] <rama_8086> bodsda, without using shell i want to create document in /var/www
[10:21] <demreath> does anyone know when the new version of packaged kernel (without vmsplice exploit) will be available in repos?
[10:21] <Bodsda> rama_8086, what sort of document, a plain text document?
[10:21] <JangMunho> ubud: What ubuntu default uses is not vesa but an open source ati driver.
[10:21] <rama_8086> bodsda, yes a plain text document
[10:21] <Joetheodd> Alright, I just upgraded from breezy to dapper and I got the infamous logon prompt. I forget, what's the reconfigure command?
[10:22] <ikonia> rama_8086: 1.) you need to have a site configured in the site-enabled directory, 2.) you need to give your using permissions to write to that directory
[10:22] <Bodsda> rama_8086, im confused,. do you want to save a document to that folder?
[10:22] <JangMunho> ubud: If you use vesa driver then you can't even watch movie...
[10:23] <demreath> Joetheodd: dapper? why not upgrade to gutsy?
[10:23] <ubud> Dronline: I am building a media centre pc with ubuntu mythtv. using the build in opensource driver video very smooth
[10:23] <DrOnline> ubud: then that is probably your best option
[10:23] <ubud> DrOnline: how to tell what driver I am using now
[10:23] <rama_8086> ikonia, how can i give permissions to write in that directory
[10:24] <Joetheodd> demreath, you can only upgrade one release at a time, cant you?
[10:24] <ikonia> rama_8086 use chmod or chown
[10:24] <DrOnline> ubud: try typing 'cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep Driver' into a terminal
[10:25] <Bodsda> rama_8086, open the text editor with sudo,. eg     gksudo gedit
[10:25] <DrOnline> ubud: though chances are it will say 'fglrx'
[10:25] <prometoys> hi, is it possible to recover a damaged LUKS-header?
[10:25] <rama_8086> thanks ikonia,bodsda  i solved that problem
[10:26] <Bodsda> rama_8086, ah,.ok,.,.
[10:26] <demreath> Joetheodd: You can upgrade straight to newest version. Change all "dapper" into "gutsy" in /etc/apt/sources.list and then write "apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade" in terminal
[10:26] <Joetheodd> demreath, ah, last time I used ubuntu that was highly recommended against
[10:27] <Joetheodd> demreath, but for now, how can I fix my X?
[10:27] <ubud> Dronline: it shows five lines of drivers, "kbd", "mouse", "wacom", "wacom", "nv"
[10:27] <DrOnline> ubud: nv is the driver you're using then
[10:27] <DrOnline> ubud: which is odd as you're using an ATI card
[10:28] <mohamed> hi all, I'm using ubuntu 7.10 and I need to install uclibc-toolchain any help?
[10:28] <DrOnline> ubud: or did I miss something
[10:28] <rama_8086> Bodsda, how to give permission which files should be shown in web browser
[10:28] <JangMunho> ubud: Checking a driver is not that complex, just open restricted driver manager, and check if the restricted driver is working, if not, then you're using the open source driver.
[10:28] <ubud> DrOnline: When I reboot pc it always show nividia FX5200
[10:28] <Bodsda> rama_8086, i run away,.,. i dont do web stuff,.,.sorry
[10:29] <up_the_irons> i recently did 'apt-get source linux-image-2.6.22-14-server'
[10:29] <up_the_irons> and
[10:29] <up_the_irons> dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot -B
[10:29] <up_the_irons> and in the debian/control file there's a ton of packages
[10:29] <demreath> Joetheodd: try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:29] <Joetheodd> thanks demreath :)
[10:29] <up_the_irons> i only want to rebuild the kernel (not the modules, or documentation)
[10:29] <JangMunho> ubud: You're using an nvidia card
[10:29] <up_the_irons> how can i do this?
[10:29] <ubud> DrOnline: it is a HP P4 PC
[10:30] <ArM-eye> AMON-RA PPL!
[10:30] <DrOnline> ubud: By the sounds of things, you're running an nVidia video card
[10:30] <up_the_irons> i'm relatively new to dpkg-buildpackage, i've built a few packages recently, but nothing big like the kernel
[10:30] <cpk1> ubud: when you type "lspci" into a terminal what does it say is your video card?
[10:30] <rama_8086> ikonia, i create a site i used two file index.php and details.txt i don't want to display details.txt contents to be visible if i type sitename.com/details.txt
[10:30] <ArM-eye> Do you want to read the revelation?
[10:31] <ubud> cpk1: ls means list and lspci means list pci device?
[10:31] <ArM-eye> yes or no?
[10:31] <DrOnline> ubud: that's correct
[10:31] <ArM-eye> It involves biblical figures
[10:31] <ikonia> rama_8086 what ??
[10:31] <Ubuntu5446> hello
[10:31] <ubud> linux is so amazing. and all the software is free, can do more things haha
[10:32] <rama_8086> ikonia, I create a site i used two file index.php and details.txt i don't want to display details.txt contents to be visible in web browser if i type sitename.com/details.txt
[10:32] <Joetheodd> ubud, and it doesn't crash when you try to browse a directory :P
[10:32] <ArM-eye> Do you want to read the revelation?
[10:32] <mohamed> I need to install uclibc toolchain any one has an idea?
[10:33] <ubud> yes, yes, linux so good, ms bye bye
[10:33] <ikonia> rama_8086: chmohamed dont
[10:33] <ikonia> oops
[10:33] <ikonia> mohamed don't
[10:34] <jack2> hi
[10:34] <Ubuntu5446> i recently upgraded to gutsy, but everything is slow now
[10:34] <rama_8086> ikonia, I create a website i used two files: index.php and details.txt , when i type http://anysite.com/details.txt it showing the content but i don't want to display that content
[10:34] <Epicenter> Hello! I am looking to reinstall Ubuntu but "Gutsy" has Xorg v1.3 which has serious issues with the siliconmotion card in my laptop. I want to get an older version that has 1.2. Which would you guys recommend? Thank you!
[10:34] <mohamed> ikonia: I used synaptic package manager but there is a dependency which I can't resolve could you help me with it?
[10:34] <gob1029> hey all, i'm trying to solve a problem with my laptop+ubuntu+sound.  when i plug in headphones or external speakers, the sound will play out of the external devices, but will continue to play out of my laptop's internal speakers.  any idea on how to stop this?
[10:36] <Ubuntu5446> it's pretty annoying, either i boot into vista but cant try anything since I'm not in ubuntu, or I'm in ubuntu but it takes seemingly forever for any pages to load up
[10:36] <bazhang> Ubuntu5446: you have a question?
[10:36] <Ubuntu5446> oh yeah sorry
[10:37] <Ubuntu5446> bazhang: yeah sorry, my laptop is slow since I upgraded  to Gutsy
[10:37] <JangMunho> Ubuntu5446: Upgrade is not recommend.
[10:37] <Ubuntu5446> bazhang: I was wondering if you could help me figure out what is wrong
[10:37] <bazhang> Ubuntu5446: from feisty?
[10:38] <Ubuntu5446> bazhang: yes
[10:38] <cpk1> JangMunho: how is upgrade not recommended from feisty?
[10:38] <JangMunho> Ubuntu5446: seems you should try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure --all"
[10:38] <hrnt> any idea when the vmsplice exploit is fixed?
[10:38] <JangMunho> Ubuntu5446: That command is slow, too.
[10:38] <bazhang> Ubuntu5446: if you provide more details then possibly the folks here can help
[10:38]  * syc_ off
[10:38] <JangMunho> Ubuntu5446: But I think it may help
[10:39] <Ubuntu5446> JangMunho: I will try your suggestion
[10:39] <bazhang> hrnt: likely already upstream

[10:39] <hrnt> bazhang: how can i get it?
[10:39] <Learning-Ubuntu> Ty bazhang
[10:40] <Epicenter> Why can't I download 7.04 anywhere? Just 6.06.1 and 7.10? I just want the next step down from 7.10 that has Xorg 1.2; Xorg 1.3 has major problems with my Silicon Motion-based video card.
[10:40] <Epicenter> Or is 7.04 ill-advised to install?
[10:40] <Learning-Ubuntu> bazhang, INstalling kubuntu-desktop says it will install several packages along with OO.org . If I already have it in gnome will it install it again?
[10:40] <Epicenter> 6.06.1 won't install; it hangs trying to mount the root filesystem. 7.10 didn't.
[10:41] <oboy03> hello
[10:41] <bazhang> Learning-Ubuntu: not sure there--started out with kde ;]
[10:41] <oboy03> i partitioned my Hd into 3 parts, the file system, home, and the swap
[10:41] <Filled-VOid> bazhang, Ah np Ill find out by installing it :)
[10:41] <oboy03> why cant i see the home partition in ubuntu?
[10:41] <bazhang> hrnt: wait like the rest of us? is there some urgency to this?
[10:41] <oboy03> i can only see file system?
[10:42] <maskn> ubuntu installer can't see my partitions (/dev/hda), any tips?
[10:42] <bazhang> Epicenter: 7.04 is still supported
[10:42] <cpk1> Epicenter: you can probably just install Xorg 1.2 after installing gutsy
[10:43] <Epicenter> cpk1: How do I downgrade Xorg without screwing my system up badly?
[10:43] <bazhang> oboy03: you have a home directory?
[10:43] <oboy03> yeah
[10:43] <Epicenter> It looks complex; all this stuff with 'pinning' packages etc
[10:43] <hrnt> bazhang: well, it is a local root exploit...
[10:43] <bazhang> oboy03: not real clear on your question there; did you log in as root
[10:44] <cpk1> Epicenter: get the 1.2 deb and then use "aptitude hold"
[10:44] <bazhang> hrnt: proof of concept to be exact
[10:44] <hrnt> bazhang: and i am running a server with many local users
[10:44] <cpk1> Epicenter: after installing the 1.2 deb
[10:44] <oboy03> bazhang: i was thinking like in windows (i know this is not windows) when you partition, u have c: and d:
[10:44] <Epicenter> cpk1: but there are so MANY xorg packages, don't I need to do this for all of them?
[10:44] <oboy03> my question is how do i know if the home directory is in d:
[10:44] <phix> hey
[10:44] <hrnt> bazhang: for the exploit?
[10:44] <oboy03> or the /home partition
[10:44] <bazhang> hrnt: if you cannot wait there is a patch--though that means compiling kernel you know
[10:44] <cpk1> Epicenter: also here is a list that has feisty http://mirrors.ccs.neu.edu/releases.ubuntu.com/
