[00:00] <nightdrever>        description: VGA compatible controller
[00:00] <nightdrever>        product: 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter
[00:00] <byte^> what is the default way Ubuntu tries to read the sound card? Is there a command I can use to check if everything is fine?
[00:00] <Flannel> !repeat | nightdrever
[00:00] <nightdrever> could anyone help me?
[00:00] <sebsebseb> xirrin: well  there woudn't really be any as far as I know,  and also as far as I know, it would then mean you would have to update kernels yourself every time you wanted to update, and  there woudn't just be one offered to you from  Ubuntu's repo
[00:00] <wirechief> xirrin: experience but why go through all the grief, who is going to support you if it doesnt work ?
[00:00] <sebsebseb> xirrin: wait no that second part is wrong I think
[00:01] <pepe_rey> thank
[00:01] <sebsebseb> xirrin: ,but  wirecheif has a point,  you can't really  get support for custom kernels in  Ubuntu's channels
[00:01] <xirrin> Oh absolutely, I was just curious about why someone would want to. It didn't make any sense to me.
[00:02] <sebsebseb> xirrin: indeed   Ubuntu isn't Gentoo or some such,  distros where people tend to do it
[00:02] <wirechief> xirrin just get the latest kernel here : http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/
[00:03] <sebsebseb> xirrin: ppa's are also  not  100% offical,  if offical at all really.  ,but yes ppa's is a good way to get even later programs
[00:03] <Linuz2009> sebsebseb: alright, thanks I need to go now.
[00:03] <sebsebseb> !ppa | xirrin
[00:03] <PioDer> hello
[00:04] <PioDer> How to split 2 LANs with Hamachi?
[00:04] <sebsebseb> xirrin: ppa's are useualy recommended for more advanced users,  that's what I should have said before   instead of the stuff regarding 100%
[00:05] <coler> are you there sebsebseb
[00:05] <wolter> who can help with graphic cards?
[00:05] <sebsebseb> xirrin: channel is not that  busy at the moment,   just chat here :)   no need to PM
[00:05] <xirrin> Sure :)
[00:05] <sebsebseb> coler: yes
[00:05] <xirrin> Well the article I found was this one: http://ubuntu-virginia.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1097993
[00:05] <magcius> PioDer, Hamachi is for Windows.
[00:05] <joaopinto> xirrin, you may want some unsual kernel patch, option or optimization
[00:05] <magcius> PioDer, you are in the Ubuntu channel.
[00:05] <Severity1> pinion: have you installed the restricted-extras
[00:05] <coler> sorry about pasting.  I had done it before u told me not to
[00:06] <PioDer> magcius: ok :)
[00:06] <sebsebseb> coler: uh?
[00:06] <pinion> Severity1: Yes, ubuntu-restricted-extras right?
[00:06] <PioDer> good night
[00:06] <coler> what do i do once i put it in ubuntu pastebin
[00:06] <sebsebseb> coler: get me the link
[00:06] <xirrin> And I'm just wondering sense it hasn't been updated in a couple months I read that the 9.4 catalyst is out...is that walkthrough safe to do at this point?
[00:06] <Severity1> yep
[00:06] <mgmuscari> hmmm, on a 320gb drive, with 3 200gb drives for general storage, what would be a good size for /usr?
[00:06] <JavaAtom> So, I've got a dumb question: how would I strip out the gnome / system tray stuff in 9.04 so that I can do things manually / without requiring gnome?
[00:06] <coler> how?  I am kind of new
[00:06] <mgmuscari> i hate trying to arbitrarily pick sizes for partitions
[00:06] <sebsebseb> coler: copy and paste the pastebin link
[00:06] <xirrin> I know its not the "ubuntu approved way", but I'm curious as to if it would work sense a number of people seem to have had good luck with it
[00:07] <joaopinto> JavaAtom, you can always do things manually, just CTRL-ALT-F1 :)
[00:07] <coler> http://paste.ubuntu.com/
[00:07] <mgmuscari> xirrin: i've installed FGLRX manually from ATi's site since 9.4 came out
[00:07] <JavaAtom> joaopinto: right. I want to load my own window manager and not have to deal with nm-applet.
[00:07] <Severity1> xirrin: i used eny to install my ati and nvidia
[00:07] <sebsebseb> xirrin: yeah as far as I know ppa's aren't 100% supported by Ubuntu
[00:07] <coler> thats not right
[00:07] <Severity1> *envy
[00:07] <mgmuscari> xirrin: you might want to build a deb and install it with the package manager so that it's easy to remove later on :)
[00:07] <fortuna66> mp3!
[00:08] <sebsebseb> coler: no for what you put on pastebin
[00:08] <xirrin> mgmuscari: I have no idea how to do either of those things :(
[00:08] <fortuna66> !mp3
[00:08] <andre> Help... is it possible to install to distro of linux in dual boot using the same partition?
[00:08] <sebsebseb> coler: if you subbmited there should be a number
[00:08] <joaopinto> JavaAtom, if you want your windows manager, you will need to set tp the xinitrc scripts for it
[00:08] <mgmuscari> i think the walkthrough tells you how to build a deb for your distro
[00:08] <joaopinto> andre, only with wubi
[00:08] <mgmuscari> i don't remember off the top of my head atm
[00:08] <mgmuscari> any thoughts on a good size for /usr? ;)
[00:08] <coler> i didnt write anything under poster
[00:08] <raylu> mgmuscari: why are you making it a separate partition?
[00:08] <JavaAtom> joaopinto: which I'm more than willing to do. My main issue is that no matter what i do, when I run my chosen window manager, I still have gnome-based crap to deal with
[00:09] <coler> any i see nothing that says submit
[00:09] <mgmuscari> raylu: i like to keep things separated
[00:09] <sebsebseb> xirrin: that link you gave me, is probably ok
[00:09] <joaopinto> JavaAtom, that is because your xinitrc scripts are calling gnome/gdm apps/scripts
[00:09] <eseven73> coler, use paste.ubuntu.com if you can
[00:09] <Severity1> pinion: that's as far as i can go right now, but i will tell you if anything comes to mind
[00:09] <andre> joaopinto: what is wubi
[00:09] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: thanks my install worked
[00:09] <joaopinto> !wubi | andre
[00:09] <raylu> mgmuscari: but if you don't use some space you allocate, you've wasted it. if you use more than you allocate, you're screwed
[00:09] <pinion> Severity1: Thank you
[00:09] <sebsebseb> xirrin: however it's usually best to  stay with the standard  Ubuntu generic kernel
[00:09] <mgmuscari> raylu: that's why i hate partitioning
[00:10] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: ok good
[00:10] <raylu> mgmuscari: in general, unless you have a good reason, you should stick with a single partition for everything else
[00:10] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: so you been using it today?
[00:10] <JavaAtom> joaopinto: alright, can you point me to a web page that can tell me how to set things up?
[00:10] <raylu> mgmuscari: the only thing it makes sense to keep separate are /home and /boot, in my opinion
[00:10] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: yeah
[00:10] <raylu> *things
[00:10] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: did you get that link I left you?
[00:10] <Severity1> pinion: have you tried searching synaptics for those missing packages?
[00:10] <sere> how do i start a movie in another screen
[00:10] <coler> how do i use pastbin.  I pasted the stuff there, now what
[00:10] <needhelp1> yeah.. i need help editing my grub menu now
[00:10] <sere> for tvout
[00:10] <mgmuscari> raylu: try installing a different distro or upgrading by doing an install from disc with everything on one massive partition, and you'll understand why i do it this way :p
[00:10] <sebsebseb> !pastebin |  coler
[00:10] <BrixSat> where dos ubuntu stores all its users? and how can i add a user able to become sudo
[00:11] <needhelp1> as of now.. it says it will auto load the highlighted listing in 10 seconds.. which is ubutnu.. i need to change that to auto load windows
[00:11] <raylu> mgmuscari: i've installed lots of distros... it's not like i keep /usr across distros
[00:11] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: ah right yeah
[00:11] <raylu> mgmuscari: or even across versions
[00:11] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: that's easy enough
[00:11] <RHorse> coler: you press *send* after filling in the form
[00:11] <andre> ubottu:  joaopinto,  ok it like running virtual machine in a program on windows ! all right , its not what i;m looking for
[00:11] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: also I though 3 seconds was the default boot up time?
[00:11] <mgmuscari> raylu: i usually at least keep /usr/local across distros/versions
[00:12] <needhelp1> it waits 10 seconds and if you dont pick a selection .. it auto loads the top of the list
[00:12] <RHorse> coler: then copy the address frm the add bar at top of browser
[00:12] <mgmuscari> raylu: i hope you at least put /home on a separate partition
[00:12] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: yep
[00:12] <jaek> with the "mobile broadband" tab, are you supposed to be able to use a bluetooth phone with that?
[00:12] <raylu> mgmuscari: i do. but stuff that i need to compile in one distro i may not in another
[00:12] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: your going to edit the file for that and have Windows at the top, then Windows should boot up first
[00:12] <coler> there is no send, just poster, syntax, contents and paste
[00:12] <raylu> mgmuscari: and even if i do, they may use different gcc, etc.
[00:12] <jaek> i don't see where you enter the phone device (/dev/rfcomm0)
[00:12] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: any idea how to do that?
[00:12] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: however here's something to note, when you install a new kernel, that will become the top, and be the default boot, untill you change again
[00:12] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: hum
[00:12] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: of course done this a few or so times on the other computer
[00:12] <andre> then how could i partition one HD into more than 4 partition, because gparted doesn't allow it.
[00:13] <needhelp1> sebsebseb: im on the windows partition now.. is that ok?
[00:13] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: have you installed all of Ubuntu's updates?
[00:13] <needhelp1> yeah
[00:13] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: no  unless you do  Ext3 driver or something, but   that's a bit silly  for  this anyway
[00:14] <sebsebseb> needhelp1: re boot into Ubuntu and come back
[00:14] <needhelp1> kk brb
[00:14] <nalioth> i've installed dansguardian, and now i can't get on the internet at all :(
[00:14] <nalioth> with my main machine
[00:14] <sebsebseb> nalioth: sounds like some sort of firewall you put on?
[00:14] <mgmuscari> another reason i like to partition certain things separately is because then i can mount them as read only
[00:14] <nalioth> sebsebseb: followed the howtos on the ubuntuforums
[00:14] <eseven73> sebsebseb, it's a parental control app
[00:15] <eseven73> if im not mistaking
[00:15] <sebsebseb> nalioth: hardware firewalls are the best by the way
[00:15] <tsa> hi there
[00:15] <sebsebseb> eseven73: oh, ok well I don't really know about it obviously,  but you do it seems, so  hopefuly you can help him
[00:15] <Guest82793> virtualbox, i see usb in jaunty machine , not in 7 machine
[00:15] <tsa> got a question concerning ubuntu-themes, could sb pm me? ^^
[00:15] <Dr_Willis> andre:  to get more then 4 partitions, one  must be an extended partition, that then holds logical partitions.
[00:15] <eseven73> no I don't know much about it
[00:15] <buakeka> does anyone know what software I need to back up my drive as an image and load the image?
[00:16] <sebsebseb> tsa: you could probably get your answer from the  channel, if you ask the actsaul question
[00:16] <nalioth> sebsebseb: i don't need or waht a firewall, but evidently dansguardian needs one to work
[00:16] <adenine> i need to repartition my drive without destroying my current ubuntu installation...how can i do this?
[00:16] <nalioth> and now i can't get to the internet from that box at all
[00:16] <sebsebseb> nalioth: no  I don't know if it needs one, since I don't know that app
[00:16] <eseven73> nailora, have you tried uninstalling it?
[00:16] <coler> http://paste.ubuntu.com/173951/
[00:16] <coler> i think thats it
[00:16] <sebsebseb> nalioth: I just thought you had done something with  a firewall and  stopped yourself from getting on net, that's all
[00:16] <wolter> which are the drivers for the foxconn I video card?
[00:16] <Dr_Willis> adenine:  gparted perhaps.. but that can some times confuse the bootloader.. you may need to tweak  the /boot/grub/menu.lst afterwards depending on what you do
[00:17] <coler> pclinux and mint dont work
[00:17] <nalioth> sebsebseb: on ubuntuforums, there is a howto with "dansguardian" "firehol" and "tinyproxy" - that is the one i've followed
[00:17] <eseven73> !info dansguardian | sebsebseb
[00:17] <tsa> ^^ okay, so I've got a new skin, but it also changes my input fields in firefox, how can I fix that (my input fields are actually black at the moment ^^)
[00:17] <coler> sebsebseb did u get it
[00:18] <tsa> * skin <=> theme
[00:18] <eseven73> firehol is not an easy firewall app
[00:18] <sebsebseb> coler: yes that's it, remind me of the issue, something to do with Mint
[00:18] <adenine> i've read about gparted, but i remember someone mentioning being able to do it from a livecd
[00:18] <adenine> i just can't remember what exactly
[00:18] <wildc4rd> what is the prefered app for running an SQL server on 9.04?
[00:18] <eseven73> even with webmin interface to Firehol, it can be difficult to set up
[00:18] <amanda-b> wildc4rd, define "app."
[00:18] <coler> when i click on Mint or pc linux i get something like busy box
[00:19] <sebsebseb> coler: oh
[00:19] <coler> and it cant find something
[00:19] <mgmuscari> let's assume i have separate partitions for /home, /var, /tmp, /opt, /usr, /usr/local. how much space does ubuntu 9.04 require on / then?
[00:19] <coler> is there also a way of telling which os is on which partintion w/ linux
[00:19] <Flannel> mgmuscari: erm... very little.
[00:19] <mgmuscari> that's what i figured
[00:19] <pinion> Severity: I have tried doing a search but nothing is coming up for that
[00:19] <amanda-b> !message|said
[00:19] <coler> i thionk i just need to point it to the right hard drive
[00:19] <xirrin> mgmuscari: The link I posted for the walkthrough has a bad web address in it and is giving me a 404 error. Do you have any advice on how I can update it on my own like you said you did?
[00:19] <sebsebseb> coler: why was I asking for menu.list humm,  can't remember that now either, well it's up there some where
[00:19] <Flannel> mgmuscari: just enough for the kernels etc, and /etc
[00:20] <sebsebseb> coler: ah ha that must be why I see
[00:20] <fil_> j ##ubuntu
[00:20] <amanda-b> !msg|said
[00:20] <SaiD> ô ô  amanda-b ola
[00:20] <mgmuscari> xirrin: i don't remember off the top of my head, although if you go to the ati website, there's a link to the unofficial FGLRX wiki
[00:20] <fil_> Can I update ubuntu 8.10 to 9.04 using the update manager?
[00:20] <xirrin> Thanks! :)
[00:21] <sebsebseb> coler: have you used Wubi?
[00:21] <coler> what is wubi
[00:21] <mgmuscari> flannel: hmmm i didn't think about /etc
[00:21] <sebsebseb> !wubi |  coler
[00:21] <Flannel> mgmuscari: /etc can't be on a separate partition.
[00:21] <ubuntu_> hello
[00:21] <mgmuscari> according to df -kH on this machine, / is using 961M right now
[00:21] <mgmuscari> flannel: i wasn't thinking about putting it on one, i just forgot to think about /etc
[00:21] <ubuntu_> what's gmail max transfer capacity nowadays?
[00:21] <ubuntu_> does anyone know?
[00:21] <Guest82793> can i use skype inside virtualbox with xp or 7?
[00:22] <mgmuscari> flannel: i was planning to give / like 100M just to fit the kernel
[00:22] <hacktolive> Guest82793: sure
[00:22] <Guest82793> thanks
[00:22] <andresj_live> hello, I need advice on how big should I make my / partition. I will have a separate /home partition. I install almost every program I can find---altough I am trying to cut back on that. Would 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 GiB be a good size for my / partition? I have 100 GiB of available space for / and /home.
[00:22] <mgmuscari> flannel: think like 5GB for / ?
[00:22] <sebsebseb> coler: hummm   you got a lot of OS's on there
[00:22] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: i'm trying to figure out good partition sizes right now too :D
[00:22] <sebsebseb> coler: XP,  Fedora,  Ubuntu, and Mint
[00:23] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: stick around for a few minutes and i'll pastebin you the final partition map i come up with
[00:23] <sebsebseb> coler: Do you know about virtual machines?   ,because if you got enough RAM,  doing  vm's is probably way better than quad booting all of that
[00:23] <andresj_live> mguscari, ok awesome; thank you! :)
[00:23] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: *
[00:23] <mgmuscari> how well do people like ext4 here? i haven't used it too much yet except for on my laptop. seems good and stable so far
[00:24] <tsa> I've got a new ubuntu theme, but it also changes my input fields in firefox, is there a way to fix that (my input fields are actually black at the moment ^^)?
[00:24] <sebsebseb> mgmuscari: some think it's really unstable, others think it's good
[00:24] <coler> should i reinstall mint
[00:24] <Dr_Willis> mgmuscari:  biggest issue ive seen/heard of - is that other livecd/rescue/older disrtos dont support it yet.   But i imagine that will change soon.
[00:24] <mgmuscari> sebsebseb: what are the arguments given for instability?
[00:24] <Guest82793> i use ext4 for / and for home
[00:24] <sebsebseb> coler: which OS is the one that has the problem?
[00:24] <coler> will wubu take care of this
[00:24] <Dr_Willis> coler:  i reccomend using the normal ubuntu over 'mint'
[00:24] <sebsebseb> mgmuscari: well what's in the release notes
[00:24] <sebsebseb> !notes
[00:24] <coler> Mint and pclinux
[00:25] <[Tequila]> ok honestly how the heck to transfer video to ipod
[00:25] <Guest82793> ext4 works well
[00:25] <coler> but mint is the most important because it doesnt take as much memory
[00:25] <slipttees> hi all
[00:25] <sebsebseb> coler: how much RAM do you have?
[00:25] <coler> 1
[00:25] <coler> 1 gb
[00:25] <sebsebseb> coler: you have enough to virtul machine other LInux distros nicely :)
[00:25] <slipttees> L2TP Ipsec + certificate .p12 impossible in ubuntu jaunty ?
[00:25] <Aperculum> how do I find filesystem id?
[00:25] <Severity1> !lpi
[00:25] <coler> really
[00:26] <sebsebseb> coler: yes
[00:26] <coler> cause virtual machines in windows is very slow
[00:26] <sebsebseb> coler: what I would suggest is that you pick a distro to have as your host OS, and then virtual machine any others
[00:26] <[Tequila]> What program can transfer video to ipod? cannot find anything
[00:26] <Severity1> yep
[00:26] <tsa> I've got a new ubuntu theme, but it also changes my input fields in firefox, is there a way to fix that (my input fields are black at the moment, not very easy to read ^^)?
[00:26] <sebsebseb> coler: well Wndows can be rather slow as well :d
[00:26] <slipttees> !l2tp
[00:26] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: the release notes scared me out, lol---and there is no easy ext4 -> ext3 path; at least not with the current version of e2fsprogs
[00:26] <mgmuscari> meh i guess i'll just stick to ext3
[00:26] <Severity1> and you dont have to restart your pc when you want to use a different OS
[00:26] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: from what i understand ext3->ext4 shouldn't be so difficult
[00:27] <coler> is there a way to delete mint and pclinux
[00:27] <tsa> !help
[00:27] <sebsebseb> coler: Windows as host is always a bit hum,   I  woudn't recommend that much anymore,  unless people need it, say 3D Windows gaming or something
[00:27] <fil_> How can I use nautilus with TABS, I have <IP_ADDRESS>.
[00:27] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: no it was quite easy, actually---took like 30secs
[00:27] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: makes sense
[00:27] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: it was the opposite way which is not supported yet. although it theoretically should be
[00:27] <coler> yes it is very slow
[00:27] <slipttees> !l2tp
[00:27] <sebsebseb> coler: I have  1GB RAM, and yes  XP Home  worked rather nicely in a Virtualbox  VM  inside Ubuntu, before
[00:27] <slipttees> !pppt
[00:27] <sebsebseb> coler: and other distros will as well
[00:27] <coler> where do i get virtual machine
[00:28] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: how big is the drive you're partitioning?
[00:28] <kiloblaster> hi there!
[00:28] <sebsebseb> coler: Virtualbox is good
[00:28] <Crayboff> I connect my Xbox to my laptop so I can access Xbox Live, I can do this in Vista, how do I enable sharing internet via ethernet cable for my ubuntu 9.04 laptop?
[00:28] <slipttees> L2TP Ipsec + certificate .p12 impossible in ubuntu jaunty ?
[00:28] <sebsebseb> coler: which OS are you on now?  Ubuntu I assume?
[00:28] <kiloblaster> anyone that helps me out with Alien Invasion please???
[00:28] <coler> also is there a way to delete or unistall mint and pclinux, ot should i start over
[00:28] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: um my drive is 200GiB; 100GiB, however are being used to host old files I just cant delete :P
[00:28] <coler> ubuntu
[00:29] <hacktolive> coler: VMware Workstation and VirtualBox are the best ones
[00:29] <sebsebseb> kiloblaster: heh is this a slight troll, or do you want help with the program Alien?
[00:29] <hacktolive> coler: VMware Workstation does not seems to work properly with Ubuntu 9.04
[00:29] <sebsebseb> coler: indeed at what hacktolive said, however workstation is a  paid for commercial app,  Virtualbox isn't though
[00:29] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: that makes partitioning trickier; i'm just wiping this 320gb drive that i had several windows installations on. finally broke my marriage to MS by getting a new audio interface that works in linux
[00:29] <kiloblaster> i installed Alien Invasion but it doesn't start on Ubuntu...
[00:29] <coler> vmare in windows is awful
[00:29] <sebsebseb> kiloblaster: oh the game I see
[00:29] <kiloblaster> yeah :)
[00:30] <sebsebseb> kiloblaster: I assume it uses some pretty nice graphics,  you got graphics card driver installed?
[00:30] <tsa> Other Question, is there any way to get 3d acceleration running on Ubuntu 9.04 for my NVIDIA Geforce 9600GT?
[00:30] <kiloblaster> yes i have
[00:30] <coler> should i start over or is there a way to delete mint/pc linux
[00:30] <fil_> How can I use nautilus with TABS, I have <IP_ADDRESS>.
[00:30] <_Linuxx_> slipttees : http://www.freeswan.org/
[00:30] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: hahaha; well yeah, I used fdisk to get rid of the extended partitions I had, and now I'm harnessing the power of GParted to resize/move my 100GiB partition, and create the other two I need.
[00:30] <kiloblaster> nvidia 180... or something like that
[00:30] <sebsebseb> coler: Virtual machines probably work better on Desktop Linux
[00:30] <edgars1> I am having trouble configuring sound in my ubuntu jaunty. Can someone help?
[00:30] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: gutsy
[00:31] <slipttees> _Linuxx_: ow thx
[00:31] <sebsebseb> coler: yes you can start over  or just get rid of the os's you don't want
[00:31] <slipttees> :D
[00:31] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: gutsy? Im about to install jaunty from intrepid
[00:31] <coler> how do i get rid of mint/pclinux
[00:31] <sebsebseb> coler: delete the partitions on  the Ubuntu Live CD  from partition editor.  that would do it
[00:31] <tsa> doesn't work, if I try to activate the driver it tells me to restart and afterwards errors not to have a working kernel or something
[00:31] <TheDude> Is there an openvpn server that can be used with windows clients, and can someone point me to a tutorial on configuring it on ubuntu server?
[00:31] <sebsebseb> coler: of course backup any data you have in there first
[00:31] <coler> and how do i remove it from the grub menu
[00:31] <_Linuxx_> TheDude : look for PPTP
[00:32] <sebsebseb> coler: by editing    menu.list     sudo  gksudo /boot/grub/menu.list
[00:32] <TheDude> _Linuxx_ thank you
[00:32] <lstarnes> coler: edit the menu.lst on the partition that grub is running from
[00:32] <_Linuxx_> TheDude : http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=ubuntu+pptp+server&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=ubuntu+pptp+server&fp=-dx2DTn7Pl4
[00:32] <kiloblaster> sebsebseb: can you help me out please??
[00:32] <sebsebseb> kiloblaster:  maybe, depending on what the issue is
[00:32] <coler> can you do it and then i could cut and past
[00:33] <edgars1> I am having trouble configuring sound in my ubuntu jaunty. Can someone help?:-/
[00:33] <JGodbout> I can only seem to get 1 program playing sound at once. Like if I have rhythmbox open, then youtube can't play sound, and as soon as I close rhythmbox, youtube sound starts working. This is a fresh installation (1 week old), and have done very little tinkering with the sound.
[00:33] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: by gutsy i meant that's brave of you :p
[00:33] <kiloblaster> sebsebseb: it's simple... i installed it using the terminal...all done...then i click on "start" but nothing happens
[00:33] <tsa> kiloblaster: doesn't work, if I try to activate the driver it tells me to restart and afterwards errors not to have a working kernel or something
[00:33] <fil_> How can I use nautilus with TABS, I have <IP_ADDRESS>.
[00:33] <coler> finally how do i tell which partition has what os (ie mint) is there a folder that has the id
[00:33] <clepto> hi i need some help... i made the mistake of installing ubuntu on my laptop before i installed my windows vista partition and now my vista wont install becuase it says it cant modify to boot sector... how do erase grube from the boot sector intirely so i can install vista?
[00:33] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: oh LOL forgot that the names of the ubuntu's versions are actually adjectives :P
[00:33] <lstarnes> fil_: I don't think tabs are supported in nautilus except in 2.26
[00:33] <sebsebseb> coler: you can edit the menu.list file yourself,  it's rather straight forward
[00:34] <mgmuscari> haha
[00:34] <sebsebseb> coler: you can open the partitions now.  from computer and  see what size they are
[00:34] <fil_> lasternes: how can I update with some deb package? I'm using ubuntu 8.04.
[00:34] <mgmuscari> anybody have an opinion on a good size for /opt?
[00:34] <sebsebseb> mgmuscari: hum
[00:34] <sebsebseb> mgmuscari: a seperate /opt  that's not needed
[00:34] <lstarnes> fil_: I don't know if there are such updates for ubuntu 8.04
[00:34] <JGodbout> Any help on being able to have multiple programs to play sound at once?
[00:34] <fil_> lasternes: if I compile it myself, will it work?
[00:35] <mgmuscari> sebsebseb: i really like to keep separate partitions for most things so that / doesn't ever run out of space by accident
[00:35] <lstarnes> fil_: it might, but a deb would probably be safer
[00:35] <sebsebseb> mgmuscari: well it won't,  as long as you do a good size for / :)
[00:35] <lstarnes> fil_: check for PPAs on launchpad for gnome
[00:35] <mgmuscari> sebsebseb: i've got plenty of space to throw around here, so i don't mind if i waste a bit
[00:35] <clepto> anyone?
[00:35] <princess> can i change the program to windows without have to buy the software because ubuntu does't let me dowload anything
[00:35] <lstarnes> fil_: however, the only officially supported version of gnome on 8.04 is the one that comes with 8.04
[00:35] <coler> theres no other way, like can i go into each partition and look in a certain place
[00:35] <edgars1> I am having trouble configuring sound in my ubuntu jaunty. Can someone help?:-/
[00:36] <sebsebseb> !grub |  clepto
[00:36] <mgmuscari> princess: windows is retail software; you have to pay to get it
[00:36] <RHorse>  !sound | edgars1
[00:36] <sebsebseb> !sound | edgars1
[00:36] <clepto> sebsebseb: that isnt the problem... i want to remove grub entirely
[00:37] <antonello> .
[00:37] <sebsebseb> clepto: the Vista DVD will overwrite Grub if you let it, and then you can re install Grub
[00:37] <fil_> lstarnes: thanks
[00:37] <princess> so can i get help in downloading programs because this doesn't let me download anything
[00:37] <Crayboff> !internet sharing
[00:37] <clepto> sebsebseb: it keeps saying it cant modify the boot sector and closes out
[00:37] <edgars1> ubottu: thanks, i will try that
[00:37] <mgmuscari> princess: what are you trying to download?
[00:37] <sebsebseb> clepto: oh the Vista DVD??
[00:37] <clepto> sebsebseb: yes
[00:37] <kiloblaster> sebsebseb: if i enter ./ufo ai in the terminal it says "error while loading shared libraries: libcurl-gnutls.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[00:37] <kiloblaster> " where do i get those?
[00:38] <sebsebseb> clepto: Grub can boot Vista and Ubuntu of course :)
[00:38] <MaT-dg> does windows 7 (RC) still overwrites GRUB?
[00:38] <coler> how do i access the parttion editor
[00:38] <clepto> sebsebseb: i know ive used it before and never had this problem
[00:38] <princess> i have a zune and cannot download the program and also i have an xbox 360 and am not able to use my laptop becaus ethey only work with windows
[00:38] <Crayboff> how can I enable internet sharing? I want to connect my Xbox to my laptop for internet access. I can do it in Vista
[00:38] <lstarnes> kiloblaster: do you have libcurl3-gnutls ?
[00:38] <Sniper606> has anyone here ever compiled sagemath, if so how long did it take?
[00:38] <sebsebseb> kiloblaster: sudo apt-get install program   maybe?   I can't really help with your issue it seems
[00:38] <princess> ive tried downloading photoshop it does not work
[00:38] <kiloblaster> lstarnes: how do i know if i have it or not?
[00:38] <sebsebseb> princess: I see
[00:39] <kiloblaster> sebsebseb: thanks anyway :)
[00:39] <princess> ive tried downloading aim it does not work either
[00:39] <clepto> sebsebseb: its wierd man ive used qtparted to completely kill the partition table on the laptop and it still boots to grub
[00:39] <mgmuscari> princess: just out of curiosity, how did you end up with ubuntu? ubuntu is a version of the Linux operating system. software built for MS Windows won't run without some tweaking
[00:39] <coler> is there a grub menu program that one can install ontop of ubuntu
[00:39] <sebsebseb> princess: ok
[00:39] <geirha> princess: Photoshop is a windows program, not a linux program.
[00:39] <mgmuscari> princess: Ubuntu comes with a program called Pidgin that can be used for the AIM protocol. i like it :)
[00:39] <kiloblaster> geirha: you could use Wine for that...
[00:39] <eseven73> GIMP ftw!
[00:39] <lstarnes> kiloblaster: aptitude show libcurl3-gnutls.  or installit and see if it works after installing
[00:39] <mgmuscari> princess: if you want, i can help you install a program that will allow you to install and run many windows programs. it's called Wine
[00:40] <princess> okay how do i do that
[00:40] <JGodbout> But a better option would be to use GIMP/Pidgin
[00:40] <JGodbout> You don't need photoshop
[00:40] <sebsebseb> princess: also if your computer has enough RAM,  and you got a Windows CD, you can run  Windows inside Ubuntu inside what's called a virtual machine
[00:40] <RHorse> coler: you just open up menu.list from the last distro you installed, located in /boot/grub and erase the lines you don't want.
[00:40] <wip> hi
[00:40] <JGodbout> You can install GIMP for free, and it is very similar to photoshop.
[00:40] <eseven73> you can only use Photoshop 2 on WINE, as far as I know anyways
[00:40] <MaT-dg> kiloblaster: still problems with CS3 and CS4 though
[00:40] <eseven73> CS2*
[00:40] <kiloblaster> lstarnes: it says that i have it istalled...
[00:40] <mgmuscari> she wants to be able to use windows programs on her Ubuntu notebook, so i think it's appropriate for her to have Wine
[00:40] <wip> just installed jaunty, but i cannot use my wacom with HID anymore! anyone knows why?
[00:40] <kiloblaster> mat-dg: yeah it's true...but older like 6.0 works fine as far as i know
[00:40] <clepto> sebsebseb: so how do i manually remove grub?
[00:40] <princess> because the ubuntu was installed on my laptop when i purchased it
[00:41] <wip> it's not a problem with permission (i am root)
[00:41] <mgmuscari> princess: at the top of the screen, click on System, then Administration, then Synaptic Package Manager
[00:41] <sebsebseb> clepto: you need something that overwrites the MBR
[00:41] <geirha> kiloblaster: Yes, but it doesn't work 100%
[00:41] <sebsebseb> clepto: and then you can get rid of /boot/grub and that as well
[00:41] <kiloblaster> geirha: better than nothing no? ;)
[00:41] <mgmuscari> princess: it will ask you for your administrator password. you should have this because you either had to set it yourself, or your computer came with documentation containing it
[00:41] <clepto> sebsebseb: i already have deleted the boot partition so now i just need to do the mbr
[00:41] <Ax-Ax> how do i restart the mousehandler when it crashes :S
[00:42] <princess> okay it opened up
[00:42] <eseven73> very few decent things run in WINE, so I suggest looking into GIMP and or Inkscape princess, just my two cents.
[00:42] <mgmuscari> princess: click the "Search" button
[00:42] <eseven73> !info GIMP
[00:42] <eseven73> ...
[00:42] <Ax-Ax> i can't move the mouse and i really don't want to reboot right now, what can i do?
[00:42] <lstarnes> !info gimp
[00:42] <eseven73> !search GIMP
[00:42] <lstarnes> eseven73: case matters
[00:42] <eseven73> doh!
[00:42] <eseven73> ;) thanks lstarnes
[00:42] <progre55> hi people! I've installed ubuntu as dual boot to my cousin, but he, asshole, cannot use it.. so now I have to format it back to ntfs so that his goddamn windows could see it as an extra drive.. how would I do it, please somebody ) appreciate!
[00:42] <geirha> kiloblaster: I've gotten used to gimp, and it works better than photoshop in linux ;)
[00:42] <mgmuscari> princess: when the Search dialog opens, enter Wine in the box, and click search
[00:42] <sebsebseb> clepto: ##windows can probably help
[00:43] <Lainchan> reformat the whole drive
[00:43] <Lainchan> :P
[00:43] <princess> okay searching
[00:43] <princess> it came up with a few things
[00:43] <eseven73> with added brushes/gradients/fonts gimp can be very very nice
[00:43] <mgmuscari> princess: it will take a minute or two. when it's done searching, you will see wine under the package column of the results. right click on it, and click "Mark for installation"
[00:43] <kiloblaster> geirha: gimp is FREE and good, but with PS you can do many many things more and GIMP's learning curve is... hard i think
[00:43] <mgmuscari> princess: it may ask you to install dependencies. click yes/ok/accept or whatever
[00:44] <sebsebseb> princess: Ubuntu can do  most things Windows  can, but yes there are differences here and there,   but this site covers a lot of the basics  http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[00:44] <Lainchan> GIMP also has some plugin that gives it functions like ps i believe. Pretty sure i heard it on lifehacker or gizmodo.
[00:44] <mgmuscari> princess: after all that, click "Apply" at the top. it will take a few minutes while all the packages to be installed are downloaded and configured
[00:44] <ard1an> Hello what program should i use for Copying CD-s Like NERO ?
[00:44] <kiloblaster> ok ok
[00:44] <kiloblaster> gotta go now...
[00:44] <kiloblaster> thanks everybody btw
[00:44] <kiloblaster> see ya
[00:44] <RHorse> ard1an: I think Brasero does that.
[00:45] <ard1an> well ok :D
[00:45] <wip> is there any change in permission for polling hid device in jaunty???
[00:45] <sebsebseb> mgmuscari: sudo apt-get install wine :)
[00:45] <princess> okay its installing
[00:45] <sebsebseb> mgmuscari: that wouldh ave been easier and faster
[00:45] <byte^> Can anyone help me get my Creative Soundblaster Audigy SE card to work?
[00:45] <Ax-Ax> i can't move the mouse and i really don't want to reboot right now, what can i do?
[00:45] <m0u5e> which currently works better gnash or swfdec?
[00:45] <mgmuscari> princess: Synaptic Package Manager contains a whole lot of programs that are made to do a lot of the things you normally do in windows. they are all installed using the same process that i just gave to you. you can uninstall them by performing the same steps and selecting "mark for removal." the whole thing is pretty streamlined and in my opinion easier than windows
[00:45] <mgmuscari> princess: welcome to Linux :)
[00:46] <byte^> I checked to make sure my sound card was connected, it works fine in Windows
[00:46] <byte^> I need to have some way to figure out if Linux is reading it though
[00:46] <princess> thanks so much, so now i can download programs?
[00:46] <RHorse> !sound | byte^
[00:46] <eseven73> !apt
[00:46] <sebsebseb> princess: Synaptic is good, but  if you know the name of the Linux program that you want to install,   it's much quicker and easier to install it via the command line.   applications > assesories > terminal      then running  the   sudo apt-get install wine   command would download and install it for you
[00:46] <mgmuscari> once Wine is installed, if you download a windows .exe file, you can run it by right clicking on the icon, and selecting "run with wine"
[00:46] <MaT-dg> kiloblaster: I don't think the learning curve is harder for gimp, but when u are used to PS it can be confusing and weird
[00:47] <mgmuscari> princess: "run with wine" might not be the exact name of the selection, but i don't remember off the top of my head
[00:47] <byte^> Come on, no one can help me with my sound card?
[00:47] <gwhip> how do i use ctl-alt-backspace again? --> it's not working
[00:47] <mgmuscari> princess: Wine will handle the installation and uninstallation of "windows" programs for you. I recommend that you do not try to install photoshop as it can be a hassle
[00:47] <Ax-Ax> aah is there some way to reinitiate the mouse handler by cli?
[00:47] <eseven73> wine setup.exe I think it is
[00:48] <MaT-dg> gwhip: It's disabled by default in jaunty
[00:48] <mgmuscari> princess: Ubuntu comes with a program called the GIMP Image Editor that is similar in function
[00:48] <mgmuscari> eseven73: she probably doesn't want to use the command line
[00:48] <JGodbout> Yeah
[00:48] <princess> i tried the gimp image editor and did not like it...it seemed complicated
[00:48] <gwhip> how do i reenable it
[00:48] <JGodbout> Go to Applications -> Add/Remove...
[00:48] <eseven73> and there's always Adobe Illustrator clone, Inkscape
[00:48] <JGodbout> And search GIMP in the search bar
[00:48] <mgmuscari> princess: no more complicated than photoshop... just different
[00:48] <Ax-Ax> gimp complicated? :D
[00:48] <m0u5e> yeah gimp is gimped :/
[00:49] <eseven73> you cant master Photoshop in a day, same with GIMP
[00:49] <m0u5e> princess: i recommend sticking to adobe photoshop... gimp's UI is really horrible
[00:49] <JGodbout> No, it is not.
[00:49] <mgmuscari> princess: if you really want to run windows, you can actually run windows virtually inside of ubuntu. the steps to set that up are a bit more complicated, though
[00:49] <m0u5e> JGodbout: lets not talk about overlapping toolboxes
[00:49] <andresj_live> mgmuscari: not always, really
[00:49] <RHorse> princess: I've heard *Elements* runs good in wine.
[00:49] <kn100> hi
[00:49] <mgmuscari> m0u5e: her laptop came preinstalled with Ubuntu... she doesn't have windows
[00:49] <Ax-Ax> gimp is great, photoshop is the horrible one
[00:49] <MaT-dg> gwhip: open a terminal and install: sudo apt-get install dontzap
[00:49] <andresj_live> mgmuscari, princess: I think the Virtual Machine Manager would be useful in installing Windows
[00:49] <m0u5e> mgmuscari: photoshop c2 works well with wine
[00:50] <kn100> for some reason a run file doesnt want to run
[00:50] <mgmuscari> m0u5e: i haven't tried it myself :D
[00:50] <Ax-Ax> but i have a frozen mouse, how can i fix it? :(
[00:50] <m0u5e> Ax-Ax: how much photo editting do you do?
[00:50] <MaT-dg> gwhip: then type:  sudo dontzap --disable
[00:50] <princess> whats elements
[00:50] <eseven73> yep photoshop cs2 works in WINE
[00:50] <Lainchan> elements is a stripped down photoshop
[00:50] <kn100> i 'sh file location' in terminal and it just gives a checksum error
[00:50] <Guest82793> for ctrl-alt backspace you have to add this line at xorg.conf :Section "ServerFlags"
[00:50] <Guest82793> 	Option	"DontZap"	"False"
[00:50] <Guest82793> EndSection
[00:50] <diskin> I tried to make a copy of audio CD using brasero, and decided to create image and let brasero choose format. It created two files, "brasero.toc" and "brasero". Now I can not burn the image, it's size is ~800K, and it does not fit my blank disk. Is it a known problem?
[00:50] <kn100> photoshop versions 7 and lower work flawlessly
[00:51] <Guest82793> 	Option	"DontZap"	"False"
[00:51] <magician0617> diskin use gnomebaker
[00:51] <Guest82793> EndSection
[00:51] <mgmuscari> cs2 doesn't work properly for me in Vista :p
[00:51] <m0u5e> mgmuscari: lol
[00:51] <kn100> vista sucks
[00:51] <m0u5e> anyone know which currently has more features / stable? swfdec of gnash?
[00:51] <kn100> right
[00:51] <eseven73> !ot
[00:51] <diskin> magician0617, too late, the source disk is not available already. what's wrong with brasero?
[00:51] <Lainchan> i like vista it runs fine for me ^ ^.
[00:51] <m0u5e> windows 7 is going to be very good from the looks of it
[00:52] <kn100> how can i tell terminal to ignore checksums in a run file?
[00:52] <mgmuscari> wow, i ended up allocating 240GB for /home
[00:52] <n2diy_> ! avahi
[00:52] <magician0617> diskin: brasero is basic utility. gnomebaker has better options
[00:52] <m0u5e> Lainchan: vista is really slow sometimes
[00:52] <RHorse> mgmuscari: that won't be enough.
[00:52] <kn100> how can i tell terminal to ignore checksums in a run file?
[00:52] <MaT-dg> Lainchan: but does it run fast without eating all your rescources?
[00:52] <m0u5e> Lainchan: and doesn't run nearly as well as it needs to
[00:53] <diskin> magician0617, also, when I select "recent projects" and click on the "brasero" file (800K), it tries to open it in text editor!
[00:53] <m0u5e> MaT-dg: actually i have a problem with ubuntu eating all my resources as well, so...
[00:53] <kn100> Mat-dg windows seven is surprisingly sparing with resources
[00:53] <m0u5e> kn100: word
[00:53] <geirha> m0u5e, Lainchan: Guys, take that conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic please. Support for Ubuntu here.
[00:53] <josh_boudreau> hello
[00:53] <m0u5e> geirha: sorry got distracted :D
[00:53] <kn100> how can i tell terminal to ignore checksums in a run file?
[00:53] <mgmuscari> RHorse: yeah, i think i need at least 1TB
[00:53] <magician0617> diskin: it sounds as if your file has been reformatted
[00:53] <pw-toxic> hi.. what is the name of the compiz manager.. i want to install it via apt-get install
[00:53] <smokie`> hey guys, is it possible to create my own ubuntu livecd?
[00:53] <princess> now is there any way i can make my xbox 360 compatible with my laptop because xbox is strictly a windows based system

[00:53] <eseven73> !remaster | smokie`
[00:53] <kn100> pw-toxic cant you use add/remove?
[00:54] <MaT-dg> kn100: can be but he was talking about the vista ^^
[00:54] <magician0617> pw-toxic: it is already available fro package manager
[00:54] <m0u5e> pw-toxic: ccsm, just search "compiz" in the add/remove program manager
[00:54] <josh_boudreau> anyone know how to install a logitech quick cam messenger in 9.04

[00:55] <Ax-Ax> it's really annoying to use firefox with keyboard only: does anyone know how to reinitiate the mouse handler when it's frozen?

[00:55] <m0u5e> josh_boudreau: is this an application that comes on your logitech driver cd?
[00:55] <jrib> kn100: that doesn't really make sense so you probably want to give more details
[00:55] <MaT-dg> m0u5e: nope never tried one of those, flashplugin works good enough here
[00:55] <mgmuscari> princess: i don't have an xbox360, but what do you need it to do?
[00:55] <kn100> Verifying archive integrity...tail: cannot open `+6' for reading: No such file or directory i get that error
[00:55] <josh_boudreau> no i need to install a driver so i can use it
[00:56] <mgmuscari> princess: are you trying to use your laptop as a media server or something?
[00:56] <Ax-Ax> ohlol it works now
[00:56] <m0u5e> MaT-dg: the problem is that i can't play swf files on my local machine :(
[00:56] <jrib> kn100: that doesn't really make sense so you probably want to give more details
[00:56] <kn100> i'm trying to install unreal tournament from loki's source
[00:56] <m0u5e> MaT-dg: at least not without dragging it in a web browser
[00:56] <kn100> jrib Verifying archive integrity...tail: cannot open `+6' for reading: No such file or directory
[00:56] <jaek> is it possible to use the network manager to connect to networks via bluetooth phones yet?
[00:56] <MaT-dg> use vlc for flashfiles?
[00:56] <kn100> jrib thats the eror i get
[00:56] <Ax-Ax> in my experienc, wine is better than loki
[00:56] <pw-toxic> i just changed the look of gnome-do to "docky" but now i cant see the prefernces icon anymore where i can change the preferences of gnome-do ;(
[00:56] <kn100> error
[00:56] <MaT-dg> m0u5e: if its just a movie or music u can use vlc
[00:56] <diskin> magician0617, well, 'file brasero' says "data".. and the .toc file - what is it for? and can I use try to use them in gnomebaker somehow?
[00:57] <smokie`> does the livecd have to b on a cd-r?
[00:57] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: here's what i ended up with for partition sizes: http://pastebin.com/d236d201d
[00:57] <kn100> http://mibbit.com/pb/JDo9Le theres my problem
[00:57] <jrib> kn100: you'd have to read what it is trying to do

[00:57] <jrib> kn100: don't use sh
[00:57] <mgmuscari> i forgot swap
[00:57] <erUSUL> diskin: a toc file is like a cue file it says to the burning program how data has to be burned
[00:57] <kn100> jrib what should i use to run it
[00:57] <lstarnes> smokie`: it can work on anything that a bios or efi can boot from
[00:58] <jrib> kn100: make it executable and do ./whatever
[00:58] <erUSUL> diskin: cdrdao  creates them
[00:58] <lstarnes> smokie`: that includes usb flash drives, cds, dvds, and maybe bluray discs
[00:58] <kn100> ive set it to run as an executable but it gets the same error when run
[00:58] <mgmuscari> andresj_live: remember to allocate space for swap :p
[00:58] <princess> the xbox uses the internet to update and also i can get movies downloaded into the xbox 360
[00:58] <jrib> kn100: pastebin
[00:58] <smokie`> lstarnes, cool
[00:58] <josh_boudreau> anyone?
[00:58] <m0u5e> MaT-dg: don't like vlc :(
[00:58] <kn100> http://mibbit.com/pb/HpL13I
[00:58] <princess> when i try to configure it it reads it but can never find and ip adress
[00:58] <diskin> erUSUL, thanks. I need to learn command-line tools which are used by brasero and gnomebaker...
[00:58] <m0u5e> MaT-dg: and yeah, its not just movies... there are also games :(
[00:59] <jrib> kn100: pastebin where you didn't use sh...
[00:59] <erUSUL> kn100: the archive is corrupt you have to redwonload or fix it
[00:59] <mgmuscari> princess: why don't you connect your xbox360 to your router instead of to the computer
[00:59] <kn100> erUSUL thats no easy task
[00:59] <kn100> this file is not that widly hosted
[00:59] <byte^> I have two drives mounted in Linux. My external drive reads fine, but whenever I try browsing to the mnt/path that I use for the internal drive it just points me to the external (ls does it as well as PCMan); however, if I go to certain directories inside the internal they are valid but only lead to a few folders. Any help here?
[00:59] <mgmuscari> princess: the xbox360 is probably looking for a DHCP server to get configuration from. you'd need to run dhcpd on linux to have it act as a server. if you plug the xbox360 into the laptop, you'll only be able to get online with the xbox360 when the laptop is on

[01:00] <josh_boudreau> hey can anyone tell me how to get my logitech quick cam messenger plus to work in 9.04
[01:00] <princess> ive tryed that. how do i run a dhcpd on linux?
[01:00] <erUSUL> diskin: cdrdao write --device /dev/whatever  file.toc
[01:01] <pw-toxic> m0u5e, if i do this, i can only find "desktop effects" if i search for compiz
[01:02] <mgmuscari> princess: you'd have to set up a cron job for it. might be a bit advanced if you haven't worked with Linux/UNIX before
[01:02] <m0u5e> pw-toxic: make sure you "show all available applications" not just canonical supported
[01:02] <erUSUL> kn100: have you tried with bittorrent... bt can "repair" files
[01:02] <pw-toxic> m0u5e, thanks - i have found it
[01:02] <m0u5e> pw-toxic: then arrange by popularity, it should be at the top.. okay great :D
[01:02] <kn100> erUSUL, looked for torrents of the file, but nada
[01:02] <davidquesada> hello, I am having trouble with the sound I can't hear anything from my speakers I am new here so I can barely use the OS and I need help
[01:03] <davidquesada> please!!
[01:03] <kn100> its from 2001 so ywah
[01:03] <m0u5e> pw-toxic: its called advanced desktop effects settings (ccsm) :)

[01:03] <Vesayth> Hello all. I finally got my VPN setup working, but I'm having trouble connecting to my samba share via the netbios server name. I can connect to the share just fine with the server ip address. In other words, on the machine connecting to the VPN, I want to access my Samba share via \\servername\sharename rather than \\192.x.x.x\sharename. Does anyone know if this is possible?
[01:04] <davidquesada> I have the latest OS version, and well I've tried everything and it dosn't work
[01:04] <mgmuscari> alright, i'm going to go be distracted while this drive gets formatted
[01:04] <mgmuscari> princess: good luck
[01:04] <erUSUL> diskin: no problem

[01:04] <pw-toxic> m0u5e, now i have found compiz fusion and i have installed it, but the "compizConfig Settings manager" i have installed on my notebook cant be opened...
[01:05] <Code_Bleu> to keep from flooding the channel, can someone read a couple paragraph post and let me know if this is possible with IRC http://linux.com/community/blogs/Getting-More-Qs-answered-using-IRC.html
[01:05] <m0u5e> pw-toxic: what do you mean it won't open? when you click the link, it won't start up?
[01:05] <Jordan_U> princess: What are you trying to do?
[01:05] <Twidle> hi
[01:05] <davidquesada> hello??
[01:05] <ard1an> whats the best program for Desktop Recording ?
[01:05] <pw-toxic> m0u5e, there is a tray icon on the top right corner of my desktop near the xchat icon
[01:05] <davidquesada> can somebody help me?
[01:05] <davidquesada> please
[01:05] <Twidle> where is the linux-image-xen in jaunty/
[01:05] <pw-toxic> m0u5e, i can left click on it -> nothing happens;  right clikc -> context menu
[01:05] <sebsebseb> Jordan_U: she is new to Ubuntu,  she wants her zune to work with it,  her xbox  for something,   and   Photoshop,  or know how to use an alternative properly for photo editing
[01:06] <chuck_> !sound | davidquesada,
[01:06] <m0u5e> Code_Bleu: well thats why you prepend someone's name to a solution or if you are specifically speaking to them
[01:06] <m0u5e> Code_Bleu: most clients will light up with colored text if someone's name is mentioned
[01:06] <mmu_man> anyone knows apturl here ? does it handle more than 1 package in a single uri ? like apt:build-essential,yasm ?
[01:07] <dink> I installed 9.04 on two drives on my machine, I can boot from both and run them but I want to trash one (because I don't need it) and connect up another drive to transfer data, but when I remove any drive I get grub 21 or 22 errors.  How should I go about fixing?
[01:07] <benc1> where are python packages on ubuntu Jaunty?
[01:07] <Code_Bleu> m0u5e: I understand that, but what if i want to just see the questions that are not directly asked to me?
[01:07] <Crayboff> I want to share my internet access with my xbox, how do i do that? in Vista I can connect my xbox to my laptop with an ethernet cable, how can i do this with ubuntu?
[01:07] <princess> yes i am very new to it and am hopeless and trying to get as much help as possible
[01:08] <m0u5e> Code_Bleu: if you want to write an app which has a spefiic use for support, that would be ideal :d
[01:08] <Vesayth> crayboff: I can help you with that
[01:08] <Crayboff> sweet
[01:09] <Vesayth> crayboff: what interface is your internet coming from, and what interface is sharing the connect?
[01:09] <mmu_man> .. oh http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/134/ :)
[01:09] <kn100> !ot
[01:09] <Vesayth> crayboff: ex: eth0 and eth1
[01:09] <geirha> mmu_man: Yes, just like that. apt:<comma-separated list of packages>
[01:09] <Code_Bleu> m0u5e: too many times everyone stays in a channel, people come in and ask a question and prob a good percentage are surfing the web and not looking at the channel...although questions being asked in the channel could be answered if notified some way of questions without having to read everything going on in the channel
[01:09] <mmu_man> geirha yeah thx I just spoted this on google :)
[01:09] <m0u5e> Code_Bleu: i don't think irc was developed in mind to spefically cater to help channels ... i suppose you could do it with labeling outbound messages with metadata that state if it is a question or solution and then highlighting all "questions" though i'm not sure if thats possible with IRC
[01:09] <Dr_Willis> dink:  not sure of the specifics.. but i think you need to remove one.. and reinstall grub so that it sees the grub files and menu.lst and stuff from the drive that is installed.
[01:09] <mmu_man> could have tried booting ubuntu but I'm not sure my 7.4 has it anyway
[01:09] <Crayboff> Vesayth: my internet is coming via wifi (wlan0 ?)
[01:09] <geirha> mmu_man: I just typed "man apturl" in a terminal :)
[01:10] <mmu_man> [02:09] <mmu_man> could have tried booting ubuntu but I'm not sure my 7.4 has it anyway
[01:10] <lstarnes> mmu_man: 7.04 has been unsupported for a while
[01:10] <Crayboff> Vesayth: i'm not sure where it'd be sharing from
[01:10] <Dr_Willis> dink:  ive fought with grub so many times i normally can get it going.. but its hard to tell someone remotely what needs to be done.
[01:10] <mmu_man> ^^ in BeOS atm :p
[01:10] <davidquesada> the sound controls dosn't show anything about ALSA
[01:10] <geirha> mmu_man: I think it was added in 7.10
[01:10] <bcrawl> hey all, I just got hellanzb to start working on my box. I heard that i could make firefox download nzbs to a specific folder. I dont really want to use a front end such as lottanzb if I can avoid it. Is there any way to get firefox drop the nzb files in a specified folder.
[01:10] <mmu_man> lstarnes ENOSPC to upgrade, need to backup and reinstall anyway, lots broken
[01:10] <m0u5e> Code_Bleu: like i said, i you have programming experience, do it :D i'm sure someone will find it useful especially if it is well designed / has a nice and easy to use interface
[01:10] <mmu_man> same for debian on the other box...
[01:10] <mmu_man> btw, apt: is nice but limited to debian-based OSes...
[01:11] <dink> Dr_Willis, I just installed +built a couple of bin and installed some stuff, would it be less effort to just format both drives reinstall?
[01:11] <mmu_man> I suggested on the FreeDesktop.org to standardize a more generic install: uri scheme, but it didn't seem to get much interest
[01:12] <mmu_man> there seems to be some thing from Suse which instead uses package meta files as xml with a custom mime type... that seems to be overengineered IMO
[01:12] <geirha> mmu_man: Packages are named differently between distros. That's the main problem.
[01:12] <mmu_man> yeah I know
[01:12] <mmu_man> between OSes also :p
[01:12] <myk_robinson> how do i keep ubuntu from asking me for a keyring password in order to join a wireless network?
[01:12] <Code_Bleu> m0u5e: It would be hard to write one if everyone in the IRC channel doesnt use the same syntax...it would be nice if there were some global syntax for when you ask a question (ie. ?what is IRC?) starting all questions with a ?...then it might be easier to program something to look for this
[01:13] <Code_Bleu> m0u5e: Thanks for taking the time to read the post and commenting...i appreciate it
[01:14] <dink> How would I know if the MBR is on a drive?
[01:14] <davidquesada> still now working.. :(
[01:15] <josh_boudreau> can someone help me get my logitech quick cam messenger working please
[01:15] <Jordan_U> dink: You probably just need to remove one of the ubuntu installations then re-install grub following the standard instructions ( the new installation will point to the /boot that is left )
[01:15] <davidquesada> I have a hp pavilion dv6
[01:15] <Jordan_U> !grub | dink
[01:15] <dink> Jordan_U, thanks
[01:15] <scott> hi, I'm trying to install a deb, but I get the error: Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgnome2.0-cil (>= 2.16.0)
[01:16] <Jordan_U> dink: np
[01:16] <AmnesiaUK> anyone have a clue?
[01:16] <AmnesiaUK> how to resolve the problem?
[01:16] <josh_boudreau> anyone?
[01:17] <dink> scott, did you try installing libgnome2.0-cil and then try and reinstall?
[01:18] <AmnesiaUK> dink, its already installed with the newest version
[01:18] <AmnesiaUK> that's what it tells me
[01:19] <yaris123456789> when i run exec(wget -r -q something.com & echo $!), the script keeps on hanging instead of displaying its PID. how to solve this ?
[01:20] <geirha> yaris123456789: What language?
[01:20] <ricree> Does anyone know of a good resource for pulseaudio issues?  I just installed Ubuntu on a new laptop, and it is showing no hardware output devices
[01:20] <josh_boudreau> no one can help me install my webcam?
[01:21] <sebsebseb> josh_boudreau: you can configure web cams with a program called cheese
[01:21] <sebsebseb> !webcam
[01:22] <Dr_Willis> Hmm.. My experience with webcams in linux.. either you plug them and they work.. or they are totally unsupported.. :(
[01:22] <AmnesiaUK> what about Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgnome2.0-cil (>= 2.16.0)
[01:23] <josh_boudreau> it shows my cam works in gusty
[01:23] <josh_boudreau> but im runnin the newest one
[01:23] <EricJ1186> All right, I did my clean reinstall of 9.04 (sorry for taking so long)
[01:23] <EricJ1186> how do I do my drivers for my graphics card?
[01:23] <Codex_> I still dont understand this GParted thing :( I still keep getting my data deleted... The problem is that there are 4 primary partitions that all have some data in it. And I dont know how to keep the data by change the primary partition to extended one?
[01:23] <yaris123456789> geirha: php
[01:24] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Most likely System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[01:25] <EricJ1186> No... I was in here earlier at that driver was destroying my X Server
[01:25] <AmnesiaUK> EricJ1186, or you can install envyng and do it that way^^
[01:25] <EricJ1186> I have a Geforce 250 GTS (two of them)
[01:25] <AmnesiaUK> EricJ1186, sudo apt-get install envyng-core
[01:25] <EricJ1186> okay, I'll try that
[01:25] <AmnesiaUK> then envyng-core -t
[01:25] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Before you try that know how to recover if it fails!
[01:26] <smerz> Codex_: you need to create an extended partition in order to create more partitions in overall on that harddisk, this is not specific to GParted but a general "issue"
[01:26] <EricJ1186> well, so far, I've had to do a clean install
[01:26] <EricJ1186> basically, if I go to the hardware drivers, activate it, then restart, I bot into the terminal, and then I cannot access the GUI or the X Server
[01:26] <vitotb> hola
[01:27] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: re-installing just because of bad driver install is overkill :) Next time try booting into recovery mode and choose "Fix X"
[01:27] <gubuntero> hola!!!
[01:27] <geirha> yaris123456789: Been a while since I've touched php, but from what I can tell, exec does not run the command in a shell. And the shell is the one that interprets the & and $!.
[01:27] <Cryptic_1onkey> I am happy to stick with 8.10 long term support addition
[01:27] <EricJ1186> did that
[01:27] <Codex_> smerz: I'm worrying that the xp will be broken if I remove some data. :(
[01:27] <EricJ1186> it said could not fix
[01:27] <Jordan_U> Cryptic_1onkey: you mean 8.04? 8.10 is not LTS
[01:27] <smerz> Codex_: you currently have 4 _primary_ partitions and not a single extended partition correct?
[01:27] <vitotb> buenas noches, lo siento es que no controlo mucho el ingles (estoy en ello)
[01:28] <Codex_> smerz: yes
[01:28] <Cryptic_1onkey> I am happy to stick with 8.04 long term support addition
[01:28] <gubuntero> de donde sos vitotb???
[01:28] <geirha> yaris123456789: Try with popen instead
[01:28] <smerz> Codex_: that's the limit if i recall correctly, I suggest backing up the data from the 4th partition, delete it and create an extended partition
[01:28] <vitotb> tengo un problema con apache y mysql, alguien puede ayudar, gracias
[01:28] <kn100> ive downloaded a run file from 4 different places, and every one gets a checksum error, even though i know the files themselves are fine.
[01:28] <vitotb> de MûÀlaga
[01:28] <smerz> you can create 4 partitions into that extended partition
[01:28] <AmnesiaUK> is anyone familiar with: Dependency is not satisfiable: libgnome2.0-cil (>= 2.16.0) ?
[01:28] <smerz> something like that
[01:28] <kn100> how can i disable checksum checks
[01:28] <AmnesiaUK> or atleast know a solution
[01:29] <kn100> or disable archive integrity checks
[01:29] <tsukasa_> anyone know how i can get my ssh server to be resilient to slow packets (and not drop the connection). Such as, for example, incredibly onerous deep packet inspection on one side of the ssh
[01:29] <smerz> kn100: what type of file is it? executable? or a compressed archive?
[01:29] <kn100> a .run file
[01:29] <lstarnes> AmnesiaUK: you need a version of libgnome2.0-cil newer than or equal to 2.16.0
[01:29] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Do you remember the exact wording or closer to it? I don't see how that feature would say that fixing failed as it basically just resets your xog.conf
[01:29] <kn100> ive set it to be executable and tried running it
[01:30] <chuck_> !es|vitotb,
[01:30] <smerz> kn100: chances are it's inbuild (the crc checks)
[01:30] <AmnesiaUK> lstarnes, and how am I able to get the package name?
[01:30] <lstarnes> AmnesiaUK: aptitude show libgnome2.0-cil
[01:30] <vitotb> gracias
[01:30] <kn100> smerz any ideas how i can fix that
[01:30] <vitotb> voy a ello ;)
[01:30] <ard1an> whats the best program for Recording The Desktop ?
[01:30] <gubuntero> probûÀ con ubuntu-ar
[01:30] <AmnesiaUK> lstarnes, Not a real package
[01:30] <smerz> kn100: if the executable checks itself first thing once you execute it, i dont think you can disable it since it's inbuild
[01:31] <Codex_> smerz: oh, that could work. best way to back up the data would be tar gz? :)
[01:31] <dayo> AmnesiaUK: that's the name
[01:31] <gubuntero> eso sûÙ, en la mayorûÙa de los canales de habla hispana, tenûˋs que ser paciente
[01:31] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, what is?
[01:31] <Jordan_U> tsukasa_: If won't make ssh more resilient but screen can help with making your "session" not die if your connection does
[01:31] <dayo> AmnesiaUK: sudo aptitude install libgnome2.0-cil
[01:31] <AmnesiaUK> aptitude show libgnome2.0-cil
[01:31] <AmnesiaUK> No current or candidate version found for libgnome2.0-cil
[01:31] <AmnesiaUK> Package: libgnome2.0-cil
[01:31] <AmnesiaUK> State: not a real package
[01:31] <ard1an> whats the best program for Recording The Desktop ?
[01:31] <FloodBot2> AmnesiaUK: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:31] <lstarnes> AmnesiaUK: try looking in the PPAs for it
[01:31] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, I already did that
[01:31] <smerz> kn100: virusscanners do this for instance, before running the installation routine the check themselves for consistency
[01:31] <Brut_PCjr> Test
[01:31] <Decepticon> test failed!
[01:31] <kitche> !best | ard1an
[01:31] <vitotb> gracias a todos voy a buscar
[01:31] <innovate2000> hello all you gurus!
[01:31] <kitche> ard1an: but maybe the recordthedesktop app
[01:32] <smerz> Codex_: you could copy the stuff onto one of the other partitions, space permitting
[01:32] <kn100> smerz http://mibbit.com/pb/5qv3Zb
[01:32] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, I've already got the newest package
[01:32] <Codex_> smerz: I have plenty of space. :)
[01:32] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, that's what it tells me
[01:32] <ard1an> i try 2 software i think they Crash my Computer
[01:32] <chuck_> !sp|gubuntero,
[01:32] <dayo> AmnesiaUK: aptitude show libgnome2.0-cil     what does the 4th line (Version:) say?
[01:32] <chuck_> !es|gubuntero,
[01:32] <smerz> Codex_: then that's the easiest way, make sure you dont get mixed up between your partitions
[01:33] <smerz> kn100: i dont know if you can manually unpack that file
[01:33] <Codex_> smerz: hope this live installation can easily mount the ntfs drives :)
[01:33] <kn100> how can i try
[01:33] <smerz> kn100: sh ./some-run-package --extract-only target_directory
[01:33] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, http://paste.ubuntu.com/173974/
[01:34] <smerz> apparently thats the command to only unpack a .run file
[01:34] <smerz> Codex_: it can easily mount ntfs files, but i dont know if GParted can resize NTFS partitions
[01:34] <smerz> err drives i mean of course
[01:34] <smerz> I have 3-4 nts filesystems here which i really want to swap over to ext4
[01:34] <kn100> smerz will try now
[01:35] <AmnesiaUK> lstarnes, S partitions
[01:35] <Codex_> smerz: at least the installation program can do that, since I already resized them few times. But couldnt create extended partition yet. :)
[01:35] <myself> w00t
[01:35] <AmnesiaUK> lstarnes, http://paste.ubuntu.com/173974/ *
[01:35] <dayo> AmnesiaUK: that's odd. looks like it's not installed
[01:36] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, :S
[01:36] <smerz> Codex_: yeah the trick for the extended partition is that the extended partition in itself is a "primary partition" in which you write data for other partitions, so if you have 4 primary partitions you cannot create an extended partition even if you have XXX gb space unpartitioned
[01:36] <smerz> Codex_: as i said this is not a GParted thing, this applies to all partition programs
[01:37] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, http://paste.ubuntu.com/173976/
[01:37] <dayo> AmnesiaUK: start synaptic and search for libgnome2.0-cil. if the box next to the package name is green, then it's installed. if it's not green, then install via synaptic.
[01:37] <Crayboff> How can I share my my internet access with my laptop, I am using Wicd
[01:37] <smerz> kn100: apparently some .run files use other commands for this purpose, there is a small list of em in this thread-> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-370580.html
[01:37] <Crayboff> errr
[01:38] <Crayboff> How can I share my my internet access with my xbox, I am using Wicd
[01:38] <kn100> smerz http://mibbit.com/pb/fOaQis
[01:38] <smerz> !info wicd
[01:38] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, It's green
[01:39] <smerz> Crayboff: you can share your internet using "firestarter" it's a small firewall gui (although i would recommend some network knowledge in order to use this package)
[01:39] <EricJ1186> envgng-core -t was not found
[01:39] <dayo> AmnesiaUK: try   sudo dpkg -a --configure
[01:39] <innovate2000> I have a simple question - I just dd zero'd a brand new 1TB drive (used Gparted to format the drive - but the computer was set to AHCI - but that didn't work - 3 of 10 drives were "damaged" - once I switched to non-AHCI the rest of the drives formatted (ext3) without errors. I read that I might be able to reformat the drive if I zero it out first) - it took most of the day - the drive...
[01:39] <innovate2000> ...activity light just stopped - but the bash prompt has not returned - and I've read that I should not stop the process for fear of further damaging the drive and rendering it unusable. I have a few more cycles of this to do on this drive and the others as well - but I have no idea what to do now - should I continue to just wait?
[01:39] <AmnesiaUK> EricJ1186, try envyng
[01:39] <princess>  How can I share my my internet access with my xbox
[01:39] <smerz> kn100: chances are all those files you downloaded are indeed corrupted ;((
[01:40] <EricJ1186> all right, that gave me a list of commands, I want the textual interface?
[01:40] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, nope still the same error:)
[01:40] <Crayboff> smerz: i'm using wicd, would that work with it?
[01:40] <smerz> Crayboff: yes it should, can't see any reason why it shouldn't
[01:41] <princess> crayboff: what is wicd
[01:41] <Crayboff> alright, i'll look into it smerz
[01:41] <Crayboff> princess: it is an alternate network manager
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Crayboff: It is much easier to share your connection with network-manager
[01:41] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, even libgnome2.24-cil is installed
[01:41] <princess> and how do i get that because i am also trying to get my xbox connected
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Crayboff: Is there a reason you don't want to use network-manager?
[01:41] <lstarnes> AmnesiaUK: sounds like whatever you're installing has outdated dependencies
[01:42] <AmnesiaUK> lstarnes, anyway to downgrade?
[01:42] <Crayboff> Jordan_U: the problem is, before, network-manager broke on me and I couldn't access the internet at home, only at school, wicd finally made it work
[01:42] <dayo> lstarnes: AmnesiaUK: what are u actually trying to install that needs libgnome2?
[01:42] <smerz> Jordan_U: because it's buggy? :( I haven't used network manager ever, always ditched it real quick
[01:42] <Crayboff> i haven't tried any new versions, Jordan_U
[01:42] <AmnesiaUK> dayo, usenext
[01:42] <lstarnes> AmnesiaUK: it would be better to find a better version of the package
[01:42] <AmnesiaUK> lstarnes, guess there isnt any, + there isnt a source available
[01:43] <EricJ1186> the problem is
[01:43] <kn100> smerz but ive used 6 different mirrors now
[01:43] <lstarnes> AmnesiaUK: report the bug to the package maker?
[01:43] <EricJ1186> this versio that I am installing is the same one as the Hardware Driver has
[01:43] <smerz> kn100: heh well give me a mirror
[01:43] <EricJ1186> and that one crashed my X server
[01:43] <EricJ1186> someone in here earlier said I should just install the one for my video card
[01:43] <smerz> unreal tournament, can't harm my machine :D:D
[01:43] <AmnesiaUK> lstarnes, I could.... though I guess they wont be bothered:p
[01:44] <smerz> kn100 ill try it out for you :)
[01:44] <kn100> smerz you will need the original disks or copies *cough torrent cough*
[01:44] <pw-toxic> hi
[01:44] <kn100> http://www.princessleia.com/UT.php
[01:44] <kn100> thats the guide im following
[01:44] <Jordan_U> Crayboff: I would try nm again, especially if you want to do internet sharing ( as long as you are running Ubuntu 8.10+ )
[01:44] <kn100> used that file, and its earlier versions that i found, all with crc errors
[01:45] <pw-toxic> this is weird.. i have installed the  "CompizConfig Settings Manager" on my notebook, but i dont know how i can install it on my desktop... i just cant remember the name of this application where i can change nearly anything of compiz on my own
[01:45] <pw-toxic> do i need special sources to install it?
[01:45] <kn100> pw-toxic
[01:45] <Jordan_U> !ccsm | pw-toxic
[01:45] <pw-toxic> Jordan_U, thx!
[01:45] <smerz> kn100: hmm well I can tell you so much that crc errors only occur when there is an integrity issue. just studied them at university ;o(
[01:45] <No92> does someone know how i can mount .disk files?
[01:46] <Crayboff> Jordan_U: i'm just nervous that I will not be able to access the internet again
[01:46] <EricJ1186> okayy
[01:46] <Jordan_U> pw-toxic: np, remember in the futer though that apt / synaptic has search :)
[01:46] <EricJ1186> that driver did it again
[01:46] <EricJ1186> I need help ASAP
[01:46] <pw-toxic> Jordan_U, can you tell me how i could have found out the name of it?
[01:46] <kn100> smerz yeah but how can there be an integrity error on all these files
[01:46] <vitotb> hola, perdonadme de nuevo alguien me podrûÙa indicar como conectar con un irc en castellano
[01:46] <vitotb> gracias
[01:46] <kn100> i got 12 copies fro like 10 different sites
[01:46] <EricJ1186> Can ANYONE help me?
[01:46] <smerz> kn100: chances are that all the mirror sites obtained a bogus file from the original site ;(
[01:46] <kn100> i can get it to run in wine but the anticheat that comes with it gives too many false positives
[01:46] <smerz> that would be my bet
[01:47] <xangua>  ubottu: !es | vitotb
[01:47] <pw-toxic> Jordan_U, hmm i just have missed it while reading... probably because the name was too long ;)
[01:47] <kn100> smerz it runs very well in wine
[01:47] <Jordan_U> pw-toxic: System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manger, or from the terminal "apt-cache search compiz settings"
[01:47] <kn100> smerz just online doesnt like working
[01:47] <chuck_> !es|vitotb,
[01:47] <pw-toxic> Jordan_U, i remebered a short name of this application.. anyway - thanks
[01:47] <Jordan_U> pw-toxic: np
[01:47] <smerz> but online is the most importand part i know ;)
[01:47] <kn100> pw-toxic ccsm
[01:47] <smerz> is there no other source you can obtain this file from? independent from all these mirrors?
[01:47] <kn100> smerz i was thinking of setting up a VM for this
[01:47] <treyh> what log analyzer for UFW do you recommend?
[01:47] <smerz> naah i wouldn't recommend it
[01:47] <EricJ1186> Hello?
[01:47] <kn100> smerz i looked everywhere
[01:48] <kn100> smerz even tried 4shared
[01:48] <chaorain> has anyone figured out how to put photos on the DSi?
[01:48] <chuck_> EricJ1186,  What driver are you trying to install
[01:48] <EricJ1186> It was the Nvidia Accelerated Graphics Driver Version 180
[01:48] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Have you tried starting in recovery mode and choosing Fix X?
[01:48] <kn100> smerz playing online is possible, but all the good servers have utdc
[01:48] <EricJ1186> I install it, and it loads me into the terminal
[01:49] <EricJ1186> from there, I cannot do much
[01:49] <chuck_> EricJ1186, sorry do not know nvidia
[01:49] <innovate2000> Jordan_U & EricJ1186: Might it be a restricted driver?
[01:49] <hacktolive> can I have both GNOME and KDE running on the same PC at the same time? I don't mean KDE/GNOME apps, but the Desktop environment itself... ?
[01:49] <EricJ1186> that's what I said earlier
[01:49] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Just run "sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then "sudo reboot"
[01:49] <EricJ1186> someone told me to just use the Nvidia driver on their site
[01:50] <innovate2000> I've used Nvidia several times and when it didn't install with (k)ubuntu - I tried the Restricted drivers and it went in ok
[01:50] <chuck_> hacktolive, no
[01:50] <AnswerGuy> hacktolive: what does that really mean?  What is "the desktop environment" other than a collection of different components (apps)
[01:50] <aiuw> I have Ubuntu 8.10 on another partition that I can mount, is there a way to run apt-get update/upgrade on it without booting into it?
[01:50] <hacktolive> chuck_: thanks, I suspected that
[01:51] <Jordan_U> hacktolive: You can run two X servers
[01:51] <AnswerGuy> X only sees one process as the "sessions manager" and will only allow one app to be the window manager (at any given time)
[01:51] <coz_> aiuw,  if you can get to console you might be able to
[01:51] <hacktolive> AnswerGuy: I don't really know that...
[01:51] <EricJ1186> Ityped in that string, Jordan, and nothing happened
[01:52] <ricree> does anyone know a good source for pulseaudio problems?  No output devices are showing up when I try to use it, and I am getting no sound
[01:52] <EricJ1186> the sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:52] <aiuw> coz_: ?
[01:52] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: It won't give any output but when you reboot X should start as it wont try to load the proprietary driver
[01:52] <EricJ1186> okay let me try
[01:52] <coz_> aiuw,  what happens when you try boot into that? does it drop to a text console?
[01:53] <donavan01> anyone in here used cairo-dock .... trying to get my icons to not looks so pixelated
[01:53] <hacktolive>  Jordan_U: tell me more... would that be like running one on "<alt>+<F1>" and other on "<alt>+<F2>"   ?
[01:53] <coz_> donavan01,  yes I use cairo dock
[01:53] <coz_> donavan01,  which video card?
[01:53] <youwin> is there a way to make window resizes update while dragging the window?
[01:53] <coz_> youwin,  in compiz?
[01:53] <chuck_> !pulseaudio|ricree,
[01:53] <youwin> just gnome
[01:53] <aiuw> coz_: well, I don't have an internet connection with it
[01:53] <coz_> youwin,  oh not sure then
[01:53] <hacktolive> Jordan_U: I meant: <ctrl> + <alt> + >f1>
[01:53] <Jordan_U> hacktolive: Yes, or you could run one X server inside a window within the other with xnest / xepher
[01:53] <donavan01> coz_   its a radion x500
[01:54] <EricJ1186> Jordon - didn't work
[01:54] <EricJ1186> back in terminal
[01:54] <Crayboff> can someone here help me with Firestarter setup?
[01:54] <ricree> thank you chuck, but I already went through that guide and haven't been able to get it to work.  Do you have and other suggestions?
[01:54] <coz_> donavan01,  ok which version of cairo-dock do you have?    cairo-dock  --version
[01:54] <youwin> right now it sohws a blue border around the new size of the window, you list the  mouse button and it goes to that size
[01:54] <youwin> how is it done with compiz?
[01:54] <AnswerGuy> hacktolive: you could run multiple X servers with startx -- :1 & startx -- :2 --- and yes, you'd switch among them using [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[F*] keys (or using the chvt command)
[01:54] <donavan01> coz_ 2.0
[01:54] <coz_> youwin,  are you sure that is not compiz?
[01:54] <hacktolive> Jordan_U: interesting, thanks a lot
[01:55] <innovate2000> ericj: what does "dmesg tail" return?
[01:55] <youwin> i have the best appearance settings
[01:55] <chuck_> ricree, hold tight
[01:55] <coz_> donavan01,  ok  you have to start cairo dock without opengl with an ati card right now
[01:55] <youwin> windows jiggle
[01:55] <AnswerGuy> hacktolive: or you could run Xnest or Xepher ... to run one X server in a window within another
[01:55] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: OK, do you remember where you put the nvidia driver installer?
[01:55] <coz_> donavan01,  to do that by terminal the command is    cairo-dock
[01:55] <coz_> donavan01,  and could I see a screenshot of your pixelated icons?
[01:55] <Crayboff> can someone here help me with Firestarter setup?
[01:55] <EricJ1186> no, I used envyng and it did it on it's own
[01:55] <coz_> donavan01,  they should not be pixelated because they are all ... or should be.. svg
[01:56] <AnswerGuy> hacktolive: or you could configure a VNC server to run KDE or GNOME (and access that via a VNC viewer, which, of course, would run in a window under your other X
[01:56] <pw-toxic> where can i find my grub config file?  my windows doesnt show up on grub ;/
[01:56] <rcrocker> is anyone using cedega and Ubuntu with the open source ati driver ?
[01:56] <youwin> oh sorry it IS compiz, I just put visual settings down to the bottom and it does resize like i want it to
[01:56] <m0u5e> ugh so i tried both swfdec and gnash, and i have to say while swfdec may seem more of a flash hack, it works better than gnash with flash videos and the such
[01:56] <AnswerGuy> hacktolive: you could even create a virtual machine ... and run the "other" environment there (again, connecting to it via a VNC viewer)
[01:56] <coz_> youwin, ok  open ccsm and go to the window management category
[01:57] <coz_> youwin,   then click on the resize window plugin to get into it's settings
[01:57] <youwin> ah ok, I needed to install the compiz configuration package
[01:57] <chaorain> has anyone figured out how to put photos on the Nintendo DSi?
[01:57] <donavan01> coz_ ... well I have tried changing to the non-open-GL and it seems to be a lot better and honestly I don't need the pretty stuff anyways ... give me a min and I will get you a screen shot
[01:57] <coz_> youwin,  go to the general tab  and under  Default resize mode  choose stretch  but not normal  that doesn work for anyone really
[01:57] <RHorse> pw-toxic, /root/grub/menu.list
[01:57] <EricJ1186> one thing I see is Clocksource unstable, but there is a lot of stuff before that
[01:57] <EricJ1186> any idea?
[01:57] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Still there?
[01:57] <Crayboff> !firestarter
[01:57] <hacktolive> Jordan_U, AnswerGuy: thanks for the good ideas, I really appreciate it
[01:57] <EricJ1186> yeah
[01:57] <Jordan_U> hacktolive: np
[01:58] <EricJ1186> I wrote - Envyng did my driver
[01:58] <coz_> donavan01,  ok
[01:58] <pw-toxic> RHorse, thanks
[01:58] <EricJ1186> so I have no idea where it installed it
[01:58] <donavan01> does the print screen button give me a screen shot in ubuntu ?
[01:58] <Crayboff> yes
[01:58] <AnswerGuy> Speaking of virtual machines ... I've been following the HOWTO on running Ubuntu/KVM at http://www.howtoforge.com/virtualization-with-kvm-on-ubuntu-8.10-p2
[01:58] <Viper550> donavan01, and even more conviently, lets you save it
[01:58] <coz_> donavan01,  yes  and alt+printscreen gives a screenshot of the focused window only
[01:58] <progre55> hi people! I've installed ubuntu as dual boot to my cousin, but he, asshole, cannot use it.. so now I have to format it back to ntfs so that his goddamn windows could see it as an extra drive.. how would I do it, please somebody ) appreciate!
[01:58] <AnswerGuy> ... and I'm having one little problem ... they can't seem to connect to my local network!
[01:58] <chuck_> ricree, have you tried this  http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup  also there  is someone that comes here that seems to know a lot about pulse so if that does not fix it check back in here
[01:59] <chaorain> any one know if I install Ubuntu on my Dell XPS M1730 Laptop Can I still get support from dell?
[01:59] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Ok, run "sudo envyng" and procede to uninstall the driver
[01:59] <Laundry> why aren't some programs showing up in synaptic?
[01:59] <ricree> thank you for the help, chuck.   I'll go take a look at it now
[01:59] <coz_> donavan01, if you are using compiz  and have the screenshot plugin enabled  just hold down super while you drag over what you want to screenshot
[01:59] <Laundry> i'm pretty sure i enabled all the repositories
[01:59] <Laundry> stuff like xchat and irssi is missing
[01:59] <treyh> whats a good log analyzer for UFW
[01:59] <AnswerGuy> I'm connected to them via their VNC servers (I've got two of them running)  and everything looks fine
[01:59] <EricJ1186> all right - how do I install the drivers I need to?
[02:00] <Laundry> but they're showing up in the generic add/remove program
[02:00] <Daps> anyone know a good vmware help channel?
[02:00] <AnswerGuy> I presume I'm doing something wrong with the bridging
[02:00] <Jordan_U> chaorain: Not official advice but I would assume that you would still get hardware support from Dell no matter what OS you use
[02:00] <youwin> thanks that was it
[02:00] <coz_> youwin,  cool
[02:01] <Daps> that was a stupid question... forget about it.. i forget to put the # before vmware in my search....
[02:01] <Crayboff> can someone here help me with Firestarter setup?
[02:01] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: No idea on that one, do you need 3D acceleration or just full resolution?
[02:01] <chaorain> Jordan_U, you think it would still be under warranty?
[02:01] <EricJ1186> both really
[02:01] <EricJ1186> I wanted to get some games up/I have a guide on SLi in Linux
[02:02] <AnswerGuy> Can anyone offer some suggestions for troubleshooting that?
[02:02] <Jordan_U> chaorain: I would expect so ( the harware warrentee, not any software warentee ). Call Dell support and ask
[02:02] <junior_> how to config gtk-recordMyDesktop soundboard?

[02:08] <xcqte> chaorain: seriously? is there no way i can open it then and get my files out?
[02:08] <Jordan_U> xcqte: What program created the .disk file?
[02:08] <mgmuscari> coz_, the disk is blank, i wiped it and am doing a clean install
[02:08] <Laundry> is it possible to change the icon in the top left corner of the screen
[02:08] <xcqte> Jordan_U: wubi installer
[02:08] <Laundry> or is that compiled in
[02:08] <coz_> mgmuscari,  ooo   and it is locking up?
[02:08] <dooner> xcqte, where did the .disk file come from?  Is it a disk image? in the terminal what does file  filename.disk say it is
[02:08] <mgmuscari> installation freezes at 62% with x86_64 version and 25% with i386 version
[02:08] <xudongri> hello
[02:08] <xudongri> hello
[02:09] <xudongri> hello
[02:09] <scott9876> I know someone can help me out on this one
[02:09] <chaorain> xcqte, where did you get it?
[02:09] <mgmuscari> not enough ram maybe? system only has 1gb
[02:09] <coz_> mgmuscari,   you might want to check the disk  when you first run thta disk  to see if it has errors
[02:09] <mgmuscari> already ran the chksum on the cd
[02:09] <xcqte> dooner: installing ubuntu through wubi, wubi.com
[02:09] <mgmuscari> on both 64 bit and 32 bit discs
[02:09] <Pafs321> hi! why do you guys chose to use ubuntu?? i use it cuzz well it was the only one i knew till last month when i installed it...
[02:09] <chaorain> xcqte, if you made it what program did you use?
[02:09] <coz_> mgmuscari,  understood but there is a check disk option when you start the disk up
[02:09] <coz_> mgmuscari,  how much system memory do you have?
[02:10] <donavan01> coz_ I am using the .icons folder I already have... got a ton of them in there ... but it didn't seem to change the look of it at all when I changed it ... I just copied the the existing launcher from the top menu should I have created a new one directly in cairo?
[02:10] <Jordan_U> xcqte: Ahh, it's probably just an ext file system in a file then, have you tried "sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.disk /mnt" ?
[02:10] <Twiddle> Anyone good with hellanzb installation, the peeps at the hella channel aren't answering me and I really need some help?
[02:10] <dooner> xcqte, Err I don't do windows so no idea. so the .disk file is the file the wubi created for ya.
[02:10] <scott9876> can someone help
[02:10] <xcqte> dooner: yes it is a virtual harddisk
[02:10] <mgmuscari> coz_1: 1gb
[02:11] <coz_> donavan01,   well did you right click that dock icon  configure   change locations?  if so close the dock and reopen it to see if it is picking it up
[02:11] <scott9876> I found a fix to a problem but when I reboot I have to reissue the command
[02:11] <xcqte> Jordan_U: no im not so good at stuf like that ill check it out tho. give me a sec
[02:11] <Jordan_U> xcqte: There is certainly a way to mount it, as it's mounted when you are running your wubi install
[02:12] <Dr_Willis> scott9876:  depending on the command. you could put the command in /etc/rc.local as a 'fix'
[02:12] <xcqte> yes it must sudo mount -o loop /path/to/file.disk /mntbut both ubuntu.com and google have failed me
[02:12] <coz_> donavan01,  i tried that icon  here is is working well
[02:12] <innovate2000> I just dd zero'd a brand new 1TB drive (used Gparted to format the drive - but the computer was set to AHCI - but that didn't work - 3 of 10 drives were "damaged" - once I switched to non-AHCI the rest of the drives formatted (ext3) without errors. I read that I might be able to reformat the drive if I zero it out first) - it took most of the day - the drive activity light just stopped - but...
[02:12] <innovate2000> ...the bash prompt has not returned - and I've read that I should not stop the process for fear of further damaging the drive and rendering it unusable. I have a few more cycles of this to do on this drive and the others as well - but I have no idea what to do now - should I continue to just wait?
[02:12] <xcqte> woach it pasted in a sentence there im sorry
[02:12] <mgmuscari> ugh
[02:12] <donavan01> coz_ still not changing it ... I tried changing this to a completely different looking icon different name and it still stays as the same one
[02:12] <mgmuscari> i give up on this stupid computer
[02:12] <donavan01> coz_ could it be the theme I am using ?
[02:12] <mgmuscari> maybe i'll just move all my music onto my laptop and sell the damned thing for parts
[02:12] <scott9876> Dr_Willis: this is the command echo enable,0xffffffff | sudo tee /proc/acpi/ibm/hotkeyt
[02:12] <mgmuscari> music is all i use the desktop for anymore anyway
[02:13] <coz_> donavan01,  it's more than possible yes   also
[02:13] <coz_> donavan01,  it could be the config
[02:13] <dooner> xcqte, well it is a diskimage so you should be able to mount it.
[02:13] <Dr_Willis> scott9876:  so put that command in /etc/rc.local  befor the 'exit' line. (that is the last command of the file)
[02:13] <mgmuscari> thanks coz_, i'm gonna give up on this POS for now
[02:13] <Twiddle> Anyone able to help a newbie out?
[02:13] <mgmuscari> bye
[02:13] <coz_> donavan01,  if you dont mind starting again go into /home/yourname/.config/cairo-dock/current theme
[02:13] <dooner> xcqte, does it not boot anymore?
[02:13] <coz_> mgmuscari,  ok
[02:13] <coz_> donavan01,  then delete only the cairo-dock.conf file in there
[02:13] <coz_> donavan01,  restart the dock and see if the icon changes
[02:13] <dooner> !ask | Twiddle
[02:14] <progre55> hi people! I've installed ubuntu as dual boot to my cousin, but he, asshole, cannot use it.. so now I have to format it back to ntfs so that his goddamn windows could see it as an extra drive.. how would I do it, please somebody ) appreciate!
[02:14] <scott9876> Dr_Willis:  will that work for all users or just the one logged on
[02:14] <donavan01> coz_ tried changing back to the default ... no go ... going to kill the .config now
[02:14] <xcqte> dooner: indeed just need to know how but got an answer from jordan_u so i'll try that. no i messed up :/
[02:15] <coz_> donavan01,  ok
[02:16] <JumpinJa1kalope> does anybody know how to tell what tabs are open in a firefox session using the command line?
[02:16] <Trunkz> Hi all. I've currently got Jaunty installed on my netbook. I'm going to install Windows 7 on my XP partition. Will this mess up my grub loadup? or will win7 not mess around with that
[02:16] <coz_> Trunkz,  yes it might
[02:17] <Trunkz> coz_: would it be easy to rectify?
[02:17] <coz_> Trunkz,  you will most likely have to reinstall grub via  an ubuntu live cd
[02:17] <Trunkz> I've got an ubuntu live usb =p
[02:17] <coz_> Trunkz,  trying to remember how hold on
[02:17] <dooner> Trunkz, most like it will.  windows 7 creates a couple of partitions IIRC
[02:17] <Trunkz> (Using a samsung nc10, its optical drive-less)
[02:17] <treyh> what is a good log analyzer for UFW
[02:17] <Twiddle> Could anyone guess why a .config will allow me to change the settings when using gedit and to save my changes but when actually using the program, the program acts like I did not change anything and still runs the default config?
[02:17] <GNUix> Twiddle: whats the program and where is the config?
[02:18] <Twiddle> it's hellanzb
[02:18] <Trunkz> dooner: eh lol.. why?
[02:18] <coz_> Trunkz,   http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/132551/REINSTALL%20GRUB
[02:18] <donavan01> coz_ tried that and still in the same place ... I think its something with the rendering ... even the names above the Icons are kinda fuzzy
[02:18] <Jordan_U> !grub | Trunkz
[02:18] <gooody> i was planning to upgrade from 8.10 to 9.04 but it says that there is no version of AMD 'fglrx' graphics driver available that works with my hardware and may reduce desktop effects and performance after upgrade. why does 9.04 doesn't support my hardware?
[02:18] <GNUix> Twiddle: I'm not familiar with it.. but try dropping to a console and using sudo nano -w /path/to/config and see if that works for you
[02:19] <coz_> donavan01,  ok go into home directory again  under .config and delete the entire ciaro-dock folder after closeing the dock first
[02:19] <donavan01> cos_ mind you that doesnt explain why I cant change the Icon on the windows logo though
[02:19] <EricJ1186> okay
[02:19] <Jeepste1> hi there
[02:19] <ariqs>  when I have a program crash in linux, I goto a diff terminal, and kill the process, but the process still shows in the ps -a list, and my tty7 window is still locked up with the program that crashed
[02:19] <gooody> are there other drivers in 9.04 that may support my hardware?
[02:19] <dooner> Trunkz,  I not really sure actually.  Some sort of recovery partition.  I've removed it from my desktop so I can't look.  and never bothered to install it on the netbook
[02:19] <EricJ1186> I am trying to update to this one driver I have on my desktop
[02:19] <RHorse> hey, there
[02:19] <Trunkz> alright.
[02:19] <Jordan_U> gooody: ATI dropped support for your card in their newest proprietary driver and their older driver does not support the new Xorg in jaunty
[02:19] <coz_> donavan01,   no it doesnt actually but again it may be the theme also you can meet me in #cairo-dock if you like
[02:19] <EricJ1186> it's called NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.51-pkg1.run
[02:19] <EricJ1186> how do I do that?
[02:20] <xcqte> Jordan_U: nothing happened i wrote this: sudo mount -o loop /media/DATA/lolubuntu/disks/side.disk /mnt (i renamed root.disk to side.disk in windows)
[02:20] <EricJ1186> the Nvidia site said to simply run sh [file name]
[02:20] <Trunkz> dooner: Not sure what I'll do now. I've got three partitions on there. Two NTFS (some crappy recovery partition that came with the netbook), the xp partition and the ubuntu partition
[02:20] <coz_> EricJ1186,  well  the repo one doesnt work?
[02:20] <chuck_> gooody, ubuntu does support ati, ati is lagging in support for ubuntu and linux in general
[02:20] <Jordan_U> gooody: You may be able to get 3D accelleration without fglrx though, try the jaunty liveCD
[02:20] <coz_> EricJ1186,   no you cant just run the .sh
[02:20] <EricJ1186> so what do I need to do?
[02:20] <gooody> Jordan_U: thanks for the reply
[02:20] <Jordan_U> xcqte: Your image is now mounted to /mnt if there was no error
[02:20] <Jordan_U> gooody: np
[02:21] <tyler_d1> on boot I get an initramfs unknown target type message that just keeps incrementing in number to no avail.... fresh install of 9.04 -- dmraid is installed.
[02:21] <Stepan1> In the middle of burning a CD, I got an error.  What i noticed what my ROM got unmounted.  Now, I can't even get the cd out.  Any way to remount?  Don't feel like rebooting.
[02:21] <tyler_d1> anyone help please
[02:21] <treyh> whats a good log file analyzer for UFW
[02:21] <coz_> EricJ1186,  ok first   sudo apt-get install  build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r` linux-source
[02:21] <GNUix> treyh: cat + grep + a little awk
[02:21] <treyh> GNUix: a little awk?
[02:21] <smerz> Stepan1: did you try unmounting via GUI under the "computer" section ?
[02:22] <dooner> Trunkz, Well you can try. I never upgraded anything to win 7 (as I don't have any windows pcs :)).
[02:22] <xcqte> Jordan_U: it is! oh, god thank you so much!
[02:22] <coz_> EricJ1186,  tell me when that is finished installing
[02:22] <EricJ1186> I type that all on one line, correct?
[02:22] <GNUix> treyh: seriously.. look into ulog
[02:22] <donavan01> coz_ no good still fuzzy and the cario seems to hate the windows Icon ... I think it knows
[02:22] <Jordan_U> xcqte: np :)
[02:22] <dooner> Trunkz, I only installed it clean (workstation + vmware fusion image)
[02:22] <coz_> donavan01,   doesnt make sense  let me open my dock with just cairo-dock hold on
[02:22] <gooody> Jordan_U: so you suggest to run the live cd to determine if 3D acceleration works without the fglrx?
[02:22] <Stepan1> smerz: Just tried.  Says unable to mount.  No media in drive.
[02:23] <pw-toxic> anyone in here having experience with the new linux drivers of creative x-fi soundcard?
[02:23] <pw-toxic> i dont get it to work ;(
[02:23] <EricJ1186> it loaded a bit then said "E: couldn't find package linux-headers-uname -r
[02:23] <coz_> donavan01,  no its not that  it looks fine here
[02:23] <EricJ1186> I just installed my Creative X-Fi
[02:23] <smerz> Stepan1: it does not offer the unmount option? if so i'll get you the commandline command
[02:23] <coz_> EricJ1186,  ok  then  install the other things
[02:23] <EricJ1186> wait what?
[02:23] <EricJ1186> I was replying to pw-toxic
[02:24] <Stepan1> smerz: thing is, it unmounted by itself.  It just disappeared from the panel
[02:24] <coz_> EricJ1186,  oh ok please use nicks so we know who is talking to whom:)
[02:24] <pw-toxic> EricJ1186, can you  hear sound with your x-fi at the moment?
[02:24] <EricJ1186> PW-toxic, go here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=976683; follow that topic to the T and you will be fine
[02:24] <EricJ1186> haha, sorry
[02:25] <GNUix> Stepan1: what does dmesg say? have you checked /media to see if its still mounted? what happens if you try to umount it from the command line?
[02:25] <coz_> donavan01,  did you install this via the repository?
[02:25] <EricJ1186> coz_, I ran that line, and it came back with this: E: couldn't find package linux-headers-uname -r
[02:25] <smerz> Stepan1: check whats your CD-rom by using "df" then "unmount /dev/hdX" could work, i'm not even sure
[02:25] <coz_> EricJ1186,  right so install build-essential  and linux-source
[02:25] <EricJ1186> ah, separate things
[02:25] <EricJ1186> sorry
[02:26] <Stepan1> GNUix: not sure what dmesg is, /media has cdrom, cdrom0, cdrom1.  (i only have 2 drives)
[02:26] <coz_> EricJ1186,  did the ubuntu repo glx driver not work?
[02:26] <m0u5e> is there a way to have rotating wallpapers, one per each desktop?
[02:26] <EricJ1186> no
[02:26] <EricJ1186> it crashed my Xserver
[02:26] <coz_> m0uSe  with compiz yes
[02:26] <EricJ1186> I could only boot into terminal tty1 after installing that, so Jordan helped me get out of it
[02:26] <donavan01> coz_ followed the instruction from here  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CairoDock  the Repository section
[02:26] <smerz> Stepan1: "sudo eject -r"
[02:27] <IndyGunFreak> m0u5e: not w/ gnome(unless you use compiz)... but w/ KDE it can work
[02:27] <m0u5e> IndyGunFreak: i am using compiz :D
[02:27] <pw-toxic> i have done all those steps and i can choose create ALSA driver X-FI waveOut/WaveIn (ALSA) but when i put the "test" button i get an error:
[02:27] <GNUix> Stepan1: run dmesg on the command line.. if the drive was unmounted it should show the message in there.. if not try umount /media/cdrom.. cdrom0,cdrom1 .. or get a paperclip
[02:27] <IndyGunFreak> m0u5e: its an option in there somewhere...i don't use compiz, so not sure where
[02:27] <Stepan1> smerz: that ejected my second drive (with no cd in it)
[02:27] <donavan01> coz_ think I should try the .deb files ?
[02:27] <treyh> GNUix: ulog will just put the logs into mysql and etc. I want a log file analyzer
[02:27] <pw-toxic> audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 !  audioconvert ! audioresample !gconfaudiosink: coult not open audio device for plaback.
[02:27] <m0u5e> IndyGunFreak: well theres a wallpaper option, but it wont let you auto-rotate after a period of time
[02:27] <coz_> donavan01, mm   well  either the deb pacakges or  compile from svn
[02:28] <EricJ1186> Okay, I have installed the build-essential and linux-source
[02:28] <coz_> donavan01,  is this gnome?
[02:28] <donavan01> coz_  yeah
[02:28] <coz_> donavan01,   open  system/preferences/administration/synaptic package maanger
[02:28] <Stepan1> smerz: output of df http://tinypaste.com/6b148
[02:28] <IndyGunFreak> m0u5e: ok... there was a program in the repositories that i installed (I think in 7.04) that did that
[02:28] <coz_> donavan01,   click the Search button and type in cairo-dock
[02:28] <EricJ1186> pw-toxic, I think I had that, what you have to do is once you install the drivers, select your sound card from the preferences>sound menu
[02:28] <GNUix> treyh: not true.. ulog will log to whatever file/database you want in a format that readable.  If you are looking for something to automaticly read your log files (not the greatest idea) you can look into ossec .. or just google iptables log analyizer
[02:29] <Jordan_U> gooody: Yes, and maybe try some of the games you like if you have enough RAM to try them on the LiveCD as even with 3D support it will probably not be as fast as with fglrx ( though suspend and hybernate are more likely to work correctly without fglrx :)
[02:29] <coz_> donavan01,  also are you using xchat?
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> !info drapes | m0u5e
[02:29] <aaron_> does anyone know of a video messaging for aim
[02:29] <donavan01> coz_ yeah im using xchat
[02:29] <coz_> donavan01,  then where you type to post  type    /join #cairo-dock
[02:29] <treyh> GNUix: ty, I will try ulog out
[02:29] <coz_> donavan01, i will see you there
[02:29] <IndyGunFreak> m0u5e: i knew there was one.. just couldn't remember what it was called. .. not sure how good iti s nowdays htough
[02:29] <kdc1956> how do you get 3d setup
[02:29] <m0u5e> IndyGunFreak: drapes doesnt do what i need it to do, it won't work with compiz and separate workplaces
[02:30] <smerz> Stepan1: hmm i'm not sure then :( Can't find a way to tell the eject command which cd-rom to use :(
[02:30] <IndyGunFreak> m0u5e: oh ok, gotcha
[02:30] <pw-toxic> EricJ1186, maybe i misunderstood you, but i just told you that i tried the "test" button of the "preferences->sound" interface
[02:30] <GNUix> treyh: keep in mind I have no clue how Ubuntu and UFW work.. but to utilize ulog you will need to have ULOG rules in your firewall
[02:30] <Stepan1> GNUix: doesnt look like it was unmounted, ill try unmounting those
[02:30] <EricJ1186> coz_, I have the two things installed (build-essential and linux-source)
[02:30] <m0u5e> IndyGunFreak: i'm currently using wallpaper-tray which works nicely, but is a little buggy, and won't have different wallpapers for separate work places
[02:30] <reya276> I'm having some issue playing a DVD movie, can anyone help
[02:30] <aaron_> anyone know of video messaging client for aim
[02:30] <GNUix> Stepan1: cool
[02:30] <EricJ1186> pw-toxic, correct, I had that same error
[02:30] <stealth-> Im considering writting a program, and I need to write temporary data. Is it okay for me to write data to /tmp/? Im wondering is there is a specific way I should store my data there or if im even allowed. this would not be a ubuntu specific question so if its different in other distros please mention that.
[02:30] <pw-toxic> EricJ1186, and how did you fix it? ;)
[02:30] <m0u5e> aaron_: when empathy catches up, i hear it will support video :)
[02:30] <coz_> EricJ1186,  ok  now  in terminal     gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[02:30] <EricJ1186> pw, click the drop down box and select your card, if it's AAS or something like that click the other
[02:31] <IndyGunFreak> m0u5e: ok.. wallpaper try was my next suggestion, but you're right about the different wallpapers
[02:31] <coz_> EricJ1186,  chane  DISABLED_MODULES=""  to >>   DISABLED_MODULES="nv nvidia_new"
[02:31] <[e> how can i share files between two ubuntu machines? not able to find any info on the net...
[02:31] <EricJ1186> okay, let me try that
[02:31] <smerz> Stepan1: post the content of /etc/fstab to no-paste
[02:31] <stealth-> [e: lots of ways. set up a ftp server (see !ftp) use the scp command, transfer via removable medium. Lots of ways
[02:31] <reya276> How can I play DVD movies in Ubuntu?
[02:31] <GNUix> [e: look into NFS shares or scp
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> reya276: add the medibuntu repository, and install libdvdcss2
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> !medibuntu | reya276
[02:32] <m0u5e> IndyGunFreak: well, its not a HUGE concern... it'd just be nice if there was a visual cue to inform me when i change workplaces :D
[02:32] <Stepan1> GNUix: umount said all 3 were not mounted accoring to mtab
[02:32] <Jordan_U> stealth-: Yes, you can write data to /tmp on any *NIX, just be carefull that your app doesn't have a problem with multiple users temporary files having the same name
[02:32] <[e> i want to share them through my network connection (router)?
[02:32] <EricJ1186> coz_, it shot out (gksudo: 7353): GtK warning **: cannot open dispaly
[02:32] <coz_> EricJ1186, o0
[02:32] <server2> hi ubuntu world it is e-nerd
[02:32] <m0u5e> IndyGunFreak: i really like the new workplace switch feeling, where the windows switch rather than the wallpaper... but its hard to tell when I switch now :(
[02:32] <coz_> EricJ1186,   try  sudo gedit
[02:32] <EricJ1186> maybe I had a typo, let me check
[02:32] <stealth-> Jordan_U: awesome, thanks. And I can just write it where-ever
[02:32] <GNUix> Stepan1: you can try and manually mount them (then unmount) or use a paperclip to open the tray
[02:33] <stealth-> Jordan_U: ?
[02:33] <EricJ1186> cannot open display
[02:33] <bastid_raZor> [e; scp would be the easiest way.
[02:33] <IndyGunFreak> m0u5e: yeah, i been there myself.
[02:33] <Haris_Amin> anyone using jaunty with intel pro wilress 2915abg card
[02:33] <Haris_Amin> ?
[02:33] <dooner> EricJ1186, gksudo gedit
[02:33] <[e> bastid_raZor, thanks, is it cml?
[02:33] <stealth-> server2: if your trolling, get lost
[02:33] <EricJ1186> cannot open display
[02:33] <tyler_d1> anyone know dmraid very well?
[02:33] <smerz> Stepan1: an quick and dirty way would be to use the paperclip and press into the small hole/button to force ecject it :D
[02:33] <EricJ1186> let me check my string for any typos, maybe I missed something
[02:34] <Stepan1> smerz: fstab http://paste.ubuntu.com/173993/
[02:34] <bastid_raZor> [e; yes, you could also mount the other box in the GUI under Places>Connect to Server
[02:34] <server2> no i am not trolling
[02:34] <Stepan1> don't want to use the paperclip, not sure if its still moving
[02:35] <smerz> Stepan1: "eject -r -v /dev/scd0" or "eject -r -v /dev/scd1"
[02:35] <elky> i'm having a brain fart... what's the command to do a lookup on a domain and see all the records including mx records?
[02:35] <smerz> i dont know which one is which
[02:35] <bastid_raZor> [e; you will need the username and password plus ip address.. connect them via ssh
[02:35] <unop> elky, dig, nslookup, askmara, etc
[02:35] <elky> dig! thaaaaat's it. thanks!
[02:36] <server2> server2 is e-nerd
[02:36] <bastid_raZor> [e; it'll ask Service Type.. use SSH in the drop down. that is how i stream movies from one box to another. works easier if you're not familiar with cli
[02:36] <LjL> !offtopic | server2
[02:36] <Jordan_U> stealth-: AFAIK Yes, one other thing you might want to look for depending how robust you want your program to be is that sometimes ( though seldom ) users will specify an alternate tmp directory in the $TMPDIR environment variable
[02:36] <reya276> IndyGunFreak: thanks
[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> reya276: np
[02:36] <[e> bastid_raZor, and under 'server' goes?
[02:37] <coz_> EricJ1186,  all downloded?
[02:37] <EricJ1186> coz_, I changed that line to nv nvidia_new
[02:37] <coz_> ok
[02:37] <EricJ1186> now what do I do
[02:37] <stealth-> Jordan_U: cool. I don't think that would be a big issue, but ill keep that in mind. Thanks for the help.
[02:37] <coz_> EricJ1186,  now  do you have the driver downloded from nvidia?
[02:37] <coz_> EricJ1186,

[02:37] <coz_> EricJ1186,   now get a pencil and paper
[02:37] <bastid_raZor> [e; the ip of the other box
[02:37] <Tasem> O; hello. I wanted to ask a few questions about Ubuntu's appearance settings. Namely, are there other windows effects besides how they wobble when I move them? is this customizable? Also, can I change the icon for Filesystem(which I believe is my main Ubuntu file partition) and the Windows and OS X partition icons?
[02:37] <EricJ1186> okay
[02:38] <Stepan1> smerz: scd1 ejected my second drive (the one with no probs), scd0 gave http://paste.ubuntu.com/173995/
[02:38] <coz_> EricJ1186,  do nothing until you hve this allwritten down
[02:38] <EricJ1186> k
[02:38] <bastid_raZor> [e; your internal ip of the other box.
[02:38] <stealth-> Tasem: sudo apt-get install ccsm
[02:38] <ricree> can anyone help me with sound issues?  I was having problems getting my sound card to show up in output devices for pulse audio.  I follower the tutorial at http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup , and now my sound card shows up, but now all applications are running extremely slow and there's no sound showing up from the applications
[02:38] <jmspeex> Has anyone ever been able to get network-manager to work at all? Been struggling for nearly half an our just to add a plain wifi connection
[02:38] <Haris_Amin> i have a wep encrypted connection (10 digit)....i see all of the networks in network manager including mine...but when i try to connect it just keeps on prompting me for password...
[02:38] <stealth-> Tasem: ccsm is a compiz settings manager
[02:38] <coz_> EricJ1186,  #1   ctrl+alt+F1   #2   log in    #3   sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop  #4  cd to location of driver  /home/yourname/Desktop
[02:38] <Tasem> Ah O:
[02:39] <Tasem> It couldnt find the package though
[02:39] <coz_> EricJ1186,  #5   sudo   NV  then hit tab to complete name of pacakg
[02:39] <Tasem> I'm using Jaunty by the way.
[02:39] <Haris_Amin> but i know that the connection works...i'm currently using it on my linux partition
[02:39] <Haris_Amin> soryr i meant windows partition
[02:39] <Tasem> Im pretty sure this is the Jainty room now, isnt it? O:
[02:39] <coz_> EricJ1186,   then answer yes to all then   sudo  init 6   to reboot
[02:39] <usser> Tasem, sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[02:39] <EricJ1186> okay, let me try that, then get back to you
[02:39] <[e> bastid_raZor, 'connection refused by server'...
[02:40] <Tasem> O; there it is. Thank you very much, usser, and stealth
[02:40] <coz_> EricJ1186,  make sure you write those commands  down properly or it wont work
[02:40] <ricree> I take that back.  I'm getting sound, but it's slow and extremely, extremely choppy
[02:40] <bastid_raZor> [e; do you have ssh installed and working on both boxes?
[02:40] <Jordan_U> Tasem: Almost every icon you see ( in any application ) is configurable with varying degrees of dificulty, I think ( thoug I don't use gnome / nautilus myself ) that you can change the drive icons in their properties when you right click them
[02:40] <Jordan_U> !ccsm | Tasem
[02:40] <ricree> anyone have any idea where to start fixing this issue?
[02:40] <server2> i am having problem's with shockwave flash in firefox i am running intrepid ibex 8.10 pls help
[02:40] <Tasem> O: Thank you, everyone
[02:41] <[e> bastid_raZor, do i need the sshfs package?
[02:41] <jmspeex> Anyone can help me get started with network manager?
[02:41] <smerz> Stepan1: try using sudo, next try this command: "sudo eject -s -v /dev/sdc0"
[02:41] <bastid_raZor> [e; you would need openssh-server package on both.
[02:41] <The_Jag> Has anyone a ASUS W5Fm laptop?
[02:41] <omnipotentduo> hey what channel is the new to the server world?
[02:42] <Tasem> Now, one last question, I wanted to change my computer's name, but the networking tab isnt in the system administration tab. Did they change the name for Jaunty or something?
[02:42] <Stepan1> smerz: same issue
[02:42] <Jordan_U> jmspeex: It's installed by defualt, you can access it with the applet at the top right of the screen and change preferences in System > Preferences > Networking
[02:42] <treyh> GNUix: I used fwlogwatch and suits my needs
[02:42] <bastid_raZor> Tasem; /etc/hostname is one way of changing it.. if that is where you're going
[02:43] <The_Jag> Anyone has issue with ALSA?
[02:43] <jmspeex> Jordan_U: That's as far as I got. No matter what I do from there has absolutely no effect
[02:43] <Stepan1> smerz: okay, i used the paper clip, it was still spinning
[02:43] <Jordan_U> jmspeex: What are you trying to do? What problem are you having?
[02:43] <Stepan1> smerz: i guess i should reboot, but i hope it wont unmount again
[02:44] <[e> bastid_raZor, do i use my own username (from box a) or the username on box b?
[02:44] <EricJ1186> Coz_ step 5 isn't working for me
[02:44] <The_Jag> I have a ASUS W5Fm and Ubuntu 9.04 and no sound. Is there any settings I need to do to get the sound working?
[02:44] <smerz> Stepan1: maybe yeah
[02:44] <bastid_raZor> [e; username on b box..
[02:44] <jmspeex> Jordan_U: trying to add a wifi connection. I have no idea what the problem is, it just fails silently. As if the GUI had no backend
[02:44] <Stepan1> smerz: thanks for your help
[02:44] <EricJ1186> I type sudo NVIDIA-Linux-x86-180.51-pkg1.run
[02:44] <smerz> Stepan1: oh well it wasnt of any use really ;)
[02:44] <bastid_raZor> [e; connecting from box a to b use b box username
[02:44] <ricree> I've been having some sound problems with pulseaudio.  I went through the guide at http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup , which fixed some of my problems, but now the sound  is extremely choppy and slow
[02:44] <jmspeex> i.e. nothing I had had any visible effect on nm so far
[02:44] <coz_> EricJ1186,  its not working?
[02:44] <EricJ1186> it said command not found
[02:45] <coz_> EricJ1186,   which command
[02:45] <[e> bastid_raZor, thank you
[02:45] <EricJ1186> I did "sudo [file name]"
[02:45] <bastid_raZor> [e; you're welcome. happy file transferring
[02:45] <Jordan_U> jmspeex: Is your interface and network visable in "iwlist scan" from the terminal?
[02:45] <Jeepste1> I`m trying to install Ubuntu on a second partition and it doesn`t even get to the desktop before I get "out of range on the monitor
[02:45] <coz_> EricJ1186, ok  are you sure you are on the Desktop
[02:45] <[e> bastid_raZor, :)
[02:45] <coz_> EricJ1186,  isnt that where the nvidia driver is located?
[02:45] <jmspeex> Jordan_U: eth1      No scan results
[02:45] <jmspeex> not sure whether that means visible or now
[02:45] <EricJ1186> yeah it says /Desktop
[02:45] <jmspeex> not
[02:45] <Jordan_U> Jeepste1: Have you tried starting in safe graphics mode?
[02:45] <bastid_raZor> [e;  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto .. read that page and you can connect them without passwords after a small bit of work.
[02:46] <EricJ1186> and I just saw it on the desktop before going to tty1
[02:46] <coz_> EricJ1186,    then type    sh NV   then hit tab
[02:46] <coz_> sorry
[02:46] <[e> bastid_raZor, that's great info! thanks a lot, again!
[02:46] <coz_> EricJ1186,  sorry   sudo   sh NV  then hit tab
[02:46] <EricJ1186> haha that did it
[02:46] <ricree> The_Jag, try going into System->Administration->users and groups, and make sure that you have set "Use audio devices" under permissions
[02:46] <EricJ1186> I need to run it as a root, right?
[02:46] <Jeepste1> I`ll give that a try Jordan_U.. not sure if I did that yesterday
[02:46] <smerz> Jeepste1: the desktop is appearing but it uses too high of a frequency, your monitor can't handle it. So you need to go into a safe mode and change the default setting (and the refresh rate in particular)
[02:46] <Jeepste1> BBS
[02:47] <Jordan_U> jmspeex: It means that your card is detected and a driver for it is loaded but ( unless there are no open networks in range ) it is not working properly for some reason
[02:47] <ZcHxWm> hi

[02:56] <ngabriel> is there an alternative to 'dd'?  'dd' is awefully slow for me
[02:56] <EricJ1186> coz_ anymore ideas?
[02:57] <RHorse> jmspeex, type sudo ping sonic.net do you get pings?
[02:57] <jmspeex> RHorse: why ping sonic.net?
[02:57] <Dr_Willis> ngabriel:  use the 'bs=' option and it can speed it up by like 300% :)
[02:57] <coz_> EricJ1186,   sudo nano /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common
[02:57] <RHorse> what happens?
[02:57] <chuck_> !brazil|TuNiKo,
[02:57] <ngabriel> tried with bs=64M
[02:57] <dooner> ngabriel, increase the blocksize?  but ddis normally about the fastest you can get ...
[02:57] <coz_> EricJ1186,   check the changes I asked to make are still th ere
[02:58] <ngabriel> Dr_Willis: tried with bs=64M but still i'm only getting ~30Mb/s
[02:58] <PhotoJim> ngabriel: 30 Mb/s or 30 MB/s?
[02:58] <EricJ1186> yeah
[02:58] <EricJ1186> still there
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> ngabriel:  thers a limit to the  size and benifig.. use 1024    not 64meg :)

[02:58] <ngabriel> PhotoJim: sorry, MB
[02:58] <EricJ1186> nv nvidia_new, right?
[02:58] <Dr_Willis> ngabriel:  using 64mb may be slowing things down
[02:59] <EricJ1186> there are two lines of Disabled_modules though, is that right?
[02:59] <dooner> ngabriel, also what 2 devices are you going between?  or is it same device?
[02:59] <ngabriel> Dr_Willis: also tried 32M
[02:59] <coz_> ok  EricJ1186  did you answer me before when I asked why you didnt install the drivers from the repository?
[02:59] <ngabriel> dooner: two internal SATA drives
[02:59] <EricJ1186> yeah, it caused this exact same problem
[02:59] <coz_> EricJ1186,  oooo
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> ngabriel:  bs over 1024 is rarely going to help much from what i read...
[02:59] <coz_> EricJ1186,   then lets uninstall this driver  first
[02:59] <EricJ1186> okay
[03:00] <coz_> EricJ1186,    sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-installer --uninstall
[03:00] <Jordan_U> EricJ1186: Can you pastebin the output from "lspci" ?
[03:00] <EricJ1186> how do I exit this screen
[03:00] <EricJ1186> it says ^x
[03:00] <coz_> EricJ1186,  which screen?
[03:00] <ngabriel> Dr_Willis: using 1024 gives ~14MB/s for me
[03:00] <KEROLiUKAS> Okay so i'm installing on an old P4 machine and it just keeps hanging on the same spot. The installation seems to be loading fine, until I get to see the background and I see the cursor. It just hangs there. is there a way to open a console at that point to see what's going on?
[03:00] <EricJ1186> the nano screen
[03:00] <coz_> EricJ1186,  ok  ctrl+X
[03:00] <dooner> ngabriel, sata 300 drives?
