[20:31] <xenomorph99> I also don't have them set up in fstab in Mandriva
[20:31] <tj13820> Doug_-_-_-_: use VNC
[20:31] <daedra> gah I have hosed my windows chainloader
[20:31] <daedra> so grub can see it, it points to the right partition, but goes blank on boot
[20:31] <sothe> Hello, i have some trubble to install Steam(counter-strike1.6) anyone who can help me with it, pleace PM me.
[20:31] <tj13820> Doug_-_-_-_: install tightvnc server on the windows box and use vnc viewer to view it
[20:31] <xenomorph99> I was hoping just to use these FAT partitions as "dump areas"
[20:31] <Scunizi> tj13820: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-18-server... hopefully
[20:31] <QUILz> sothe: Have you tried #winehq ?
[20:32] <sothe> ok, will do
[20:32] <Scunizi> tj13820: if it's not on the cd you'll have to download it with another machine and carry it across with a usb stick or something.
[20:32] <tj13820> Scunizi: i'm using 8.04
[20:33] <terron> i tried installing ubuntu on my dell laptop on a second partition (i've got arch linux on the first) but Ubiquity only shows /dev/sda (won't show me the partitions). does anyone know how i can just install it the seperate partition?
[20:33] <Scunizi> tj13820: that's for 8.04 and the -18 kernel.. if you have a different kernel substitute the -18 at the end with the appropriate number.. you'll see which one on the boot menu
[20:34] <Scunizi> tj13820: it might be 16 or 17 .... 16 probably if you haven't been able to do any updates yet.
[20:34] <fsufitch> ompaul: the wifidocs aren't being helpful
[20:34] <tj13820> it said couldnt find package
[20:34] <fsufitch> they're telling me how to update stuff, but i can't find why my wep is down
[20:34] <tuxboy666> you have to make more probably try gparted
[20:34] <Scunizi> !who | tuxboy666
[20:34] <saintmykill> Question for the experts: i have 8.04 and XP dual booting on my laptop currently.  I want to wipe out XP and extend my Ubuntu home partition into the newly freed space.  What's the easiest way to go about this?
[20:34] <JorgeAlvarez> Hello everyone, How do i make an image of a disk using cdrdao, Thanks
[20:34] <Dishivlatavish> Hi, my flash plugin stopped working after upgrading to ff3 in Hardy Heron x86_64. I followed this howto but to no avail http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=772490
[20:34] <tuxboy666> terron you have to make more probably try gparted
[20:35] <jatt> !wlan
[20:35] <Scunizi> saintmykill: gparted live cd .. then reinstall grub
[20:35] <lovre> How do i search trough PDF files? Is there a tool to do this?
[20:35] <Telroth|Sleep> daedra, does it error or just stall after trying to boot it?
[20:35] <daedra> Telroth|Sleep: just blank (stall I would say)
[20:35] <daedra> blinking cursor
[20:35] <saintmykill> Scunizi: thanx
[20:35] <tuxboy666> terron install it in the LiveCD session. Works great that way
[20:35] <jatt> what is a WEP key? Should I get one to be able to access a wifi network?
[20:35] <Telroth|Sleep> daedra, can you pastebin your menu.lst?
[20:36] <Scunizi> !web | jatt
[20:36] <daedra> Telroth|Sleep: yup
[20:36] <Scunizi> !wep | jatt
[20:36] <daedra> !paste
[20:37] <xenomorph99> Okay. Maybe I need to ask this a different way...Can I just apply a "don't care who the owner of these items is' to all the files in a partition ?
[20:37] <jatt> OK should a get a new network password from the administrator?
[20:38] <daedra> Telroth|Sleep: http://paste.ubuntu.com/20200/
[20:38] <Scunizi> !chown | xenomorph99 <yes you can>
[20:38] <jrib> xenomorph99: what filesystem?
[20:38] <Telroth|Sleep> xenomorph99, to what extent? disable permissions and give you acecss to everything?
[20:38] <tuxboy666> lol xenomorph69 that feature is really for your security. Just set the permission for the group you put both owners in
[20:38] <tuxboy666> once you get the hang of it, it will be easy
[20:38] <xenomorph99> FAT32. I have saved some files to a FAT32 partition which I want to be able to access from any other OS
[20:38] <jrib> !vfat > xenomorph99 (read the private message from ubottu)
[20:38] <whik> is it possible to make the system not ask for a pasword?
[20:39] <xenomorph99> e.g. Mandriva. I don't care what the security is on them
[20:39] <marcules> Good evening ^^
[20:39] <jrib> xenomorph99: you can't use chown/chmod, you need to set the appropriate options in your fstab (see ubottu)
[20:39] <tj13820> how do i port them with a usb drive
[20:39] <tj13820> ?
[20:39] <Scunizi> whik.. yes.. but if we told you we'd have to mangle your system
[20:39] <xenomorph99> But suppose I don't want to mount the partition in fstab?
[20:39] <jrib> xenomorph99: then you are out of luck
[20:39] <whik> lol k then
[20:39] <xenomorph99> Very flexible this Linux ;-)
[20:40] <tuxboy666> jrib, he can because he just wants a common storage partition
[20:40] <user4363> is there a file that i can manually set the screen resolution from? - my top res is 800x600
[20:40] <tuxboy666> not a parition the OS runs from
[20:40] <jrib> tuxboy666: how then?
[20:40] <Henri121_> qualcuno ha fantasie su cugina
[20:40] <xenomorph99> Yes, that's what I want. Just a partition to dump files on.
[20:40] <xenomorph99> Without any permissions applied
[20:40] <tj13820> Scunizi" how do i install the driver with a usb drive?
[20:40] <Scunizi> user4363: have you enabled your restricted drivers?
[20:40] <daedra> Telroth|Sleep: any ideas?
[20:40] <tuxboy666> as I said, each owner will have the sanme group from each OS
[20:40] <tj13820> !wlan
[20:40] <jrib> xenomorph99: then why don't you use ext3...
[20:40] <tuxboy666> say just clowns for argument
[20:40] <user4363> i've installe ati drivers with the help of envy
[20:40] <xenomorph99> Because I want to use FAT32 so I access it from Windows
[20:40] <QUILz> xenomorph99: Then it's a strange bug, because mounting from remote devices should set uid/gid to yours for FAT partitions
[20:40] <Worse1> i have a problem when trying to load Ubuntu it drops to Busybox v1.1.3 .... does that mean its incompatable with that machine or is it a problem that can be fixed?
[20:41] <jrib> xenomorph99: you can access ext3 from windows
[20:41] <Scunizi> tj13820: you'd download the package to the usb on another machine and carry it across to the other machine and then just double click on it.. it should be a .deb file.
[20:41] <xenomorph99> I want to use FAT32
[20:41] <tuxboy666> then each user from each distro gets put in clowns. Partition was set by owner to be readable by clowns
[20:41] <whik> how do we install python on ubuntu? or is it preinstalled somewhere
[20:41] <xenomorph99> I don't want to use the flaky ext3 driver that takes 3 hours to mount the partitions
[20:41] <xenomorph99> Or did last time I tried it
[20:41] <tj13820> Scunizi:i can't double click, no GUI
[20:41] <jrib> xenomorph99: that's fine.  But it doesn't support permissions and you are going to have to change default behavior for your "don't care who the owner is" behavior
[20:41] <Scunizi> whik: sudo apt-get install python ?
[20:41] <whik> ill try
[20:41] <Telroth|Sleep> daedra, I don't see anything wrong with your menu.lst, the only thing I can suggest is restoring the windows loader and then reinstalling grub.
[20:41] <Scunizi> tj13820: sorry I forgot.. do a man dpkg for instructions for cli
[20:42] <xenomorph99> How do you mean?
[20:42] <jrib> xenomorph99: I mean fstab is the easy way for you to take care of this
[20:42] <Kakurady> I installed LAMP on Ubuntu Desktop, but there's no www-data user... or is it supposed to be ran as root?
[20:42] <daedra> Telroth|Sleep: how do I restore the windows loader?
[20:42] <afallenhope> is there a way to increase my swap ?
[20:43] <xenomorph99> Then I have to mess about with UUIDs and I can't be bothered. I just want an easy way to dump files onto a partition where I don't have to mess about with _anything_. Is that at all possible?
[20:43] <jrib> Kakurady: there should be a www-data group that apache runs as if you installed from the repositories
[20:43] <afallenhope> I have a  2GB of ram and it's only using 700mb
[20:43] <lovre> noone knows if there is something to search PDF files in linux?
[20:43] <Scunizi> Kakurady: I think it resides in /var/www or /etc/www can't remember
[20:43] <Excelsi0r> Hi people
[20:43] <whik> huh it says its at the newest version but i dont see it under anything
[20:43] <Kakurady> It's /var/www/
[20:44] <Scunizi> whik do you have a gui?  check synaptic and search for python.. you'll get lots of referances.
[20:44] <tuxboy666> afallenhope use sysctl.conf to reduce swapping behaviour. Try vm.swappiness=0 in the file then do in terminal "sudo sysctl -p" or better yet, reboot
[20:44] <whik> i have a tgz file for it on my desktop
[20:44] <kitche> whik: type python in a terminal :)
[20:44] <jrib> xenomorph99: you realize this stuff is a one-time thing?  Instead of spending your time trying to avoid it, you could have been finished already!
[20:44] <Scunizi> whik: better to get it from synaptic and the repos then from some other place.
[20:44] <addchild314> meh: where did you want that INF file?
[20:44] <ompaul> Kakurady, do this:   ps auwx | grep apach
[20:45] <afallenhope> Scunizi: it's in the /var/www
[20:45] <whik> i got it right of the python main site
[20:45] <m_newton> Scunizi, Synaptic is best
[20:45] <tj13820> Scunizi: what would the path to a USB drive be so i can CD to it?
[20:45] <Scunizi> afallenhope: yea  .. he found it.
[20:45] <afallenhope> tuxboy666: I want to INCREASE my swap lol.
[20:45] <Scunizi> m_newton: always..
[20:45] <m_newton> Scunizi, That way it will automatically update
[20:45] <D3RGPS31> Looking for help setting up an unsupported graphics tablet with Wacom drivers (Adesso) >.>
[20:45] <xenomorph99> I don't see why I need to add them to fstab. I can't believe I'm the first person to want to dump some files to a partition and have absolutely no permissions applied to those files so anyone could access them from any other OS
[20:45] <fredrik> Does anyone know a good front-end to iptables?
[20:45] <tuxboy666> ahh I misread. I thou8ght you wanted the kernel to use more RAM
[20:45] <Agu10> Hello
[20:45] <Excelsi0r> Is it a normal thing if a file copied with "cp -p" see his privileges changed to 777-root:root ....
[20:45] <sayotte> is there a way to restrict ubuntu's nfs-kernel-server to NFSv3 or below?
[20:46] <Scunizi> tj13820: try cd /media then "ls" to see what's in there.. it might be listed as usb.. so the path would be /media/usb
[20:46] <tuxboy666> the swap partition is how big now?
[20:46] <Kakurady> ompaul: Thanks, the www-data user is there, but it does not show up in Users and Groups.
[20:46] <tj13820> okay
[20:46] <Scunizi> tj13820: I'll check mine
[20:46] <tj13820> Scunizi: ty
[20:46] <ompaul> Kakurady,  ;-)
[20:46] <jrib> xenomorph99: if you wait until you login and then mount the partitions as your user, it "just works"
[20:46] <m_newton> Scunizi, there r exceptions, mainly when you get it from another repo like medibuntu; there you just add the repo; the way with synaptic, all ur apps are updated if updates r avalible
[20:46] <Agu10> I need help with my screen
[20:46] <Fatal_Laptop> .net
[20:46] <sayotte> I am having trouble getting a network install over NFS to work and need some insight into what's going wrong, but ethereal can't decode NFSv4
[20:46] <xenomorph99> But when I boot into Mandriva, I'm not the same user
[20:46] <theshadow> stupid question... if you can see this message just respond with yes.
[20:46] <addchild314> mehehool
[20:46] <Agu10> I have just installed ubuntu and i cant configure my 2 screens
[20:46] <Scunizi> m_newton: you're speaking to the choir here.
[20:46] <sayotte> theshadow: yes
[20:46] <xenomorph99> Are you saying I need to set the same UID in Mandriva as I have in Ubuntu?
[20:46] <jrib> xenomorph99: so?
[20:46] <theshadow> sayotte: ty
[20:47] <Agu10> someone can help my?
[20:47] <m_newton> Scunizi, or when the package is not avalible in repos, but that usually means that it is not testes
[20:47] <xenomorph99> Well, I want to be able to switch between Ubuntu and Mandriva and manipulate the dumped files
[20:47] <jrib> xenomorph99: fat32 isn't aware of UIDs
[20:47] <tuxboy666> afallenhope you could resize it via gparted in a Live session, but if not all swap is even close to being used, try increasing vm.swappiness instead of setting a low number like 0
[20:47] <m_newton> Scunizi, what?
[20:47] <xenomorph99> So what prevents me from deleting those files from Mandriva ?
[20:47] <QUILz> xenomorph99: When you boot into a user in Mandriva and mount the FAT partition, it should mount it with your permissions. If it then it's probably a bug
[20:47] <jrib> xenomorph99: nothing
[20:47] <xenomorph99> Unless I am root in Mandriva
[20:47] <xenomorph99> But it prevents me
[20:47] <Scunizi> tj13820: it will be /media/sd"x""number"  try several if there are several.
[20:47] <Agu10> helloo
[20:47] <ActionParsnip> hey all
[20:47] <jrib> xenomorph99: ask the mandriva channel
[20:47] <Scunizi> m_newton: you're telling me things I've already told others.. but thanks anyway
[20:48] <Telroth|Sleep> daedra, the only way I know of is very roundabout: You need a copy of the windows 95 or windows 98 version of fdisk. fdisk /mbr will rebuild the windows bootloader for you
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> is there a way I can put a program in the background if I know its PID??
[20:48] <xenomorph99> So, if I go and dump some files from Mandriva and Ubuntu can't access them, I can come back and ask the same question again?
[20:48] <Excelsi0r> Can someone tell me how to preserve ownership of a file with the cp command ?
[20:48] <m_newton> Scunizi, oh, srry, just entered after pm ing a guy
[20:48] <sayotte> ActionParsnip: within the shell you launched it from, ctrl-z, then "bg"
[20:48] <QUILz> xenomorph99: Ubuntu should be able to access them
[20:48] <jrib> xenomorph99: it depends how the OS decides to mount the partition.  On Ubuntu, if you wait until you login, then mount it, you'll have permissions
[20:48] <LtL> Excelsi0r: cp -p
[20:48] <ActionParsnip> sayotte: cool :)
[20:48] <Telroth|Sleep> daedra, if you have a windows computer you can access and floppy drives in both computers, then go to bootdisk.com to get a copy of the 98 boot disk, else you'll just need to search around
[20:48] <Scunizi> tj13820: like cd /media/sdb1 or cd /media/sdb2 or cd /media/sdc1 etc.
[20:48] <m_newton> Scunizi, well convey the message, I am going to eat
[20:49] <xenomorph99> OK, can I just explain how I use this partition?
[20:49] <Agu10> just help me!
[20:49] <Scunizi> m_newton: :)
[20:49] <sayotte> ActionParsnip: the shell commands like that operate on "jobs" rather than PIDs though
[20:49] <sayotte> doh, he left
[20:49] <sayotte> ok, my question has long since scrolled off the top so I'll repeat it:
[20:49] <sayotte> is there a way to restrict ubuntu's nfs-kernel-server to NFSv3 or below?
[20:49] <sayotte> I am having trouble getting a network install over NFS to work and need some insight into what's going wrong, but ethereal can't decode NFSv4
[20:49] <Excelsi0r> LtL: It's not working, my files got privileges 777 owned by root, even with the -p
[20:49] <Agu10> how do i configure my two screens to work???
[20:49] <Kakurady> Something isn't right.
[20:49] <Scunizi> sayotte: you might ask in #ubuntu-server if no body here knows.
[20:49] <sayotte> Agu10: Xorg -config
[20:49] <sayotte> Scunizi: thanks
[20:50] <whik> is the epiphany browser any good?
[20:50] <Scunizi> np
[20:50] <jrib> !who | xenomorph99
[20:50] <jrib> whik: try it and decide for yourself (it's my default)
[20:50] <Scunizi> whik: try it and see if you like it..
[20:50] <Agu10> bash: xorg: orden no encontrada
[20:50] <Scunizi> tj13820: any luck?
[20:50] <xenomorph99> I boot into Ubuntu. I don't have the partition set up in fstab. It's a FAT32 partition. I dump files onto it. I then later want to manipulate these files from Mandriva or Windows (or Ubuntu). I then boot into Windows. Windows doesn't give a monkeys about the permissions so I can do what I like. I then boot into Mandriva which I installed after Ubuntu. Without being root, I can't then delete files on that partition. It says I don
[20:50] <Agu10> it does not work
[20:50] <kitche> sayotte: the NFS version is decided in the NFS client/server config not really the kernel all the kernel does is give NFS support so you can mount the NFS filesystem
[20:51] <tj13820> Scunizi: not yet, can't find a .deb madwifi driver
[20:51] <kitche> xenomorph99: yes that's because you don't have permissions
[20:51] <jrib> xenomorph99: that is a mandriva issue.  It's choosing to mount the partition without giving you permissions
[20:51] <xenomorph99> So FAT32 does support partitions now?
[20:51] <xenomorph99> permissions, not partitions
[20:51] <Scunizi> tj13820: search for the previous package name I gave you.. get that whole package.
[20:51] <addchild314> meh: did you want that INF?
[20:51] <cjk2> xenomorph99: only with posixovl
[20:51] <jrib> xenomorph99: you aren't listening...
[20:51] <Agu10> how do i configure my two screens to work in their resolutions?
[20:51] <ocha> l
[20:51] <Knifa> Hi, I'm having a problem with the wireless on my laptop. It refuses to connect to my network. It detects the networks, asks me for the passkey and tries to connect, but never actually connects. I have another laptop that seems to connect find and the wireless also works okay on Windows. Any ideas?
[20:51] <tj13820> Scunizi: which one?
[20:51] <Agu10> how do i configure my two screens to work in their resolutions?
[20:51] <sayotte> kitche: right so the "client/server" config--- the client here is a network install kernel which would be non-trivial to force into NFSv3 or below
[20:51] <daedra> Telroth|Sleep: ok thanks
[20:51] <Scunizi> tj13820: I'll look it up again.
[20:51] <tj13820> Scunizi: ndiswrapper
[20:51] <xenomorph99> OK, go ahead
[20:52] <sayotte> kitche: I was hoping to configure the server half
[20:52] <sayotte> and "nfs-kernel-server" is a package including both userland and kernel apps
[20:52] <lejon> what are shadow passwords?
[20:52] <sayotte> errr
[20:52] <kitche> sayotte: umm not sure why you keep bringing up kernel since the kernel has nothing to do with it
[20:52] <Scunizi> tj13820: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-18-server... hopefully
[20:52] <tj13820> Scunizi: ahh
[20:52] <tj13820> that one
[20:52]  * Codexs est├Ī away; Far away... - site[n/a] email[none@none] uin[none] log[on] pager[off] -=[Cyber]=-
[20:52] <kitche> sayotte: it's the NFS config files
[20:52] <jrib> xenomorph99: the OS sets permissions when you mount it.  The OS decides the permissions to give the files without any information from the fat32 filesystem.  Your easy solution is to edit your fstab on mandriva.  Ask the mandriva channel for a better way if you need one
[20:52] <tj13820> it was never restricted in previous installs.
[20:52] <sayotte> kitche: nfs-kernel-server is a package, it encompasses botht he kernel module and the userland nfsd
[20:53] <Scunizi> tj13820: it is a specific one for the server.. I had issues on gutsy because it didn't exist.. hardy included it.
[20:53] <sayotte> kitche: ok do you know where the NFS config files are?
[20:53] <cjk2> jrib: there's posixovl which mounts on top of fat to store unix permissions
[20:53] <xenomorph99> OK. Now we've established that, I'll ask the question again
[20:53] <jrib> cjk2: not by default?
[20:53] <onisciente> When the network connects it defines one dns that doesnt connect me to nothing. Although, if i change the dns to the dns of my server it works. When I restart, i lose the previous settings. I put the dns on the dhclient.conf and nothing happened. I set the dns with the network-config program and no change have been made. Does anyone can help me?
[20:53] <cjk2> jrib: "by default:?
[20:54] <jrib> cjk2: never mind, I see what you mean
[20:54] <kitche> sayotte: on Ubuntu no
[20:54] <xenomorph99> If the OS sets the permissions, how can I remove those permissions for those files OR tell the OS NOT to apply permissions to certain files ?
[20:54] <ompaul> !fat32 | xenomorph99
[20:54] <cjk2> it's a fuse module that has not gotten widespread use so far
[20:54] <Carpe|Diem> Does anyone know: what is the best file manager?:D
[20:54] <lonetech1920> how can i check files and packages like in /etc because some files have become missing or corrupted
[20:54] <Scunizi> tj13820: in fact it might be in the server cd.. with server booted put the cd in and then cd /media/cdrom0 to it.. then "sudo updatedb" wait for a few then "locate <filename>" or "locate /media/cdrom0/*.deb"
[20:54] <Excelsi0r> anyone can explain me why my "cp -p" don't preserve files ownership and permissions ?
[20:54] <sayotte> kitche: looks like there's an /etc/default/nfs-kernel-server
[20:54] <jrib> xenomorph99: you can't as far as I know.  You can set permissions on the whole partition in your fstab
[20:55] <Scunizi> Excelsi0r: does it need a capital "P"
[20:55] <Agu10> bye
[20:55] <sayotte> though I'm having trouble finding the relevant man page
[20:55] <sayotte> shoulda looked there sooner
[20:55] <cjk2> Excelsi0r: it does.
[20:55] <ompaul> xenomorph99, if that creates issues for you I will be surprised if you want to use ext3 then you should have the same user:group and possibly UID set for both sides to be happy (I know this is needed for NFS but the uid might not need to be the same for fat)
[20:55] <kitche> Excelsi0r: well cp -p does not perserve permissions but does perserve user id and group id among other things
[20:55] <LtL> Excelsi0r: my mistake, i thought it was -p, man cp.

[20:56] <xenomorph99> I want to use FAT32, though, as this is easily accessed from Windows. Last time I tried the driver that accessed ext2 or 3, I ended up with a world of pain in extended log on times etc in Windows as it mounted these partitions
[20:56] <Scunizi> xenomorph99: ext3 can be access easily from windows as well if you load the ext3 driver.
[20:57] <Carpe|Diem> hmm, ok ompaul
[20:57] <Knifa> Hi, I'm having a problem with the wireless on my laptop. It refuses to connect to my network. It detects the networks, asks me for the passkey and tries to connect, but never actually connects. I have another laptop that seems to connect find and the wireless also works okay on Windows.  I can't remember which one I use to use but it was pretty quick
[20:57] <jrib> xenomorph99: that doesn't happen here.  Try a different driver as there are many for windows
[20:58] <cjk2> Excelsi0r: we were just talkin about vfat and permissions...
[20:58] <Excelsi0r> cjk2: thanks man.... it was a chair-screen interface deficience
[20:58] <jrib> !ext3 > xenomorph99 (read the private message from ubottu)
[20:58]  * Excelsi0r is ashamed of himself
[20:59] <xenomorph99> OK, so let's say that I switch them to ext3. Do I have to set the same user ID in Ubuntu as in Mandriva to be able to manipulate these files?
[20:59] <ompaul> !otherhelp | xenomorph99
[20:59] <addchild314> meh: where do you want it
[20:59] <lonetech1920> how can i check my installed packages and download from repos if needed...some are corrupt or missing..i am unable to start synaptic manager
[21:00] <Scunizi> xenomorph99: no.. you can make it like a network file share or NAS partition.. using chmod/chown.. the how to's someone else will have to tell you.. and may have already.
[21:00] <xenomorph99> Ah, OK, I see.
[21:00] <tj13820> Scunizi: my usb drive won't work...
[21:00] <dangergrrl> sigh
[21:01] <Scunizi> lonetech1920: try from a terminal.. "sudo apt-get update"  "sudo apt-get upgrade" "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade"
[21:01] <tj13820> Scunizi: can't i just install ndiswrapper from the cd?
[21:01] <ompaul> xenomorph99, you are aware that if you don't umount the partitions correctly before you switch operating systems they (the partitions) are marked not clean and need fsck run on them
[21:01] <dangergrrl> i apparently dropping interrupts
[21:01] <Scunizi> tj13820: I've never done it.. you may have to mount the usb manually..
[21:01] <Scunizi> !mount | tj13820
[21:01] <Tobias92> Hello ubuntu people. My flash playback is kindof broken. I can't play any flash videos in firefox nor epiphany, on youtube nor google video nor anything flashy. Could there be a fix for this?
[21:01] <esteth> after i suspend my laptop with pm-suspend, it takes a _long_ time to come back when i turn it on again
[21:01] <xenomorph99> Why would I unmount them non-cleanly? I power down the machine and/or use the places->removable media in Ubuntu
[21:02] <xenomorph99> I don't yank the plug out of the wall
[21:02] <whik> tobias i had that same problem
[21:02] <whik> does your music player like rythmbox no longer play music?
[21:02] <xenomorph99> So, can't you just use chown to change a file owner to 'no one and I don't care who accesses it' ?
[21:02] <mehehool> addchild what do u mean did u not get my email address
[21:02] <Scunizi> xenomorph99: yes
[21:02] <Tobias92> whik, no, "solid" media does play
[21:03] <Excelsi0r> Evenin' to all, bye
[21:03] <xenomorph99> Then isn't that going to be the easiest way to solve my problem ?
[21:03] <addchild314> tobias: flash and firefox 3rc2 dont get along very well in linux. Make sure all media players and programs using sound are closed before opening firefox
[21:03] <Scunizi> xenomorph99: I think so..
[21:03] <whik> k go to system prefrences then sound
[21:03] <ompaul> xenomorph99, try it, I imagine it will fail as chown will not work with nonexistant users
[21:03] <xenomorph99> OK, I'll try that. I sort of asked that earlier and was told I couldn't do that
[21:03] <whik> and change them all to i think its amas
[21:04] <ompaul> xenomorph99, you could however do this rwxrwxrwx on a directory below the mount point
[21:04] <CircleCode> join #ubuntu-fr
[21:04] <Ward1983> my microphone doesnt work anymore
[21:04] <Tobias92> addchild314, well, the wierd thing is I do get sound and visual, but for a few seconds then the video hangs
[21:04] <xenomorph99> Hmm. On the chown wiki thing, it says not to set the owner to nobody
[21:04] <CircleCode> me revoila...
[21:04] <lonetech1920> when i put the sudo commands i get error: sudo: unable to resolve host sun-pc
[21:04] <Scunizi> ompaul: for xenomorph99 benefit .. can't you make the entire partition usable by everyone from any system like a NAS?
[21:04] <CircleCode> avec mon GPU toujours ├Ā 70┬░C
[21:04] <xenomorph99> ompaul: Yes, I suppose that would work, too
[21:04] <Ward1983> my microphone doesnt work anymore, i added all the possible sliders and unmuted everything etc, but nothing helps
[21:04] <ompaul> Scunizi, and my last suggestion was almost do that
[21:04] <Ward1983> it worked fine a while ago
[21:05] <mehehool> addchild314 did u not get my email address
[21:05] <Scunizi> ompaul: missed it sorry
[21:05] <CircleCode> alors que je viens de forcer le  ventilo a 5500 trs/min
[21:05] <Tobias92> whik, there now
[21:05] <addchild314> mehehool: need it again
[21:05] <ompaul> Scunizi, well I did say _almost_
[21:05] <jrib> xenomorph99: new files you create won't be 777 though
[21:05] <xenomorph99> The trouble with that, though, is that when I dump new files on there, I have to keep changing the permissions.
[21:05] <margouillat974> list
[21:05] <xenomorph99> Yes, exactly. Which comes back to using fstab
[21:05] <xenomorph99> I suppose
[21:05] <addchild314> Tobias96: i had to uninstall all flash packages with Synaptic, then reinstall with firefox. That fixed that problem for me
[21:05] <bluk> CircleCode: wrong channel :-)
[21:06] <mehehool> try this one<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:06] <jrib> xenomorph99: if you use fat32, yes.  If you use ext3, you either set up the users on the different operatinig systems with the same uid or you use ACLs
[21:06] <mehehool> addchild314 try this one<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[21:06] <whik> does it play now tobias?
[21:06] <CircleCode> bluk:  yep, I saw it... sorry
[21:07] <Tobias92> whik, could you call me "Tobias92" so IRC highlights the message? I think I missed your actual instruction
[21:07] <Ward1983> my microphone doesnt work anymore, i added all the possible sliders and unmuted everything etc, but nothing helps
[21:07] <Ward1983> any suggestions?
[21:07] <xenomorph99> OK, when I install Ubuntu, it makes a decent job of populating fstab. However, suppose I mess around with my partitions by adding or deleting, then I may get some new partitions (obviously). Is there a way of getting the fstab file to be automatically rebuilt ?
[21:07] <addchild314> mehehool: its going
[21:07] <xenomorph99> Or, if I add a new HDD, for example
[21:07] <whik> Tobias92 k go to system then preferences
[21:08] <Tobias92> whik, there now.
[21:08] <xenomorph99> Otherwise, do I have to find out which UUIDs match which partitions and do it by hand ?
[21:08] <RandyboY> What program can encode and burn avi to svcd?
[21:08] <whik> Tobias92 then change them all to amas
[21:08] <Hammer89> does anyone know what the command is to export an entire keyring from one computer to another over a network?
[21:08] <xenomorph99> whik: tovid
[21:09] <Tobias92> whik, there is no such thing as "amas"
[21:09] <Tobias92> And what all?
[21:09] <whik> Tobias92 sorry its Alsa
[21:09] <Tobias92> whik, but I do get sound, only for a few seconds
[21:09] <mehehool> addchild314 ok ill check soon
[21:09] <Anscombe> Hi, have a little problem. I'm using an old nvidea gforce fx 5200 video card, but when i use screen resolution 1024 x 768 everything is fuzzy, but when i use 800x600 its too big? Anyway I can fix this, because I would like 1024 x 768 without the fuzzyness
[21:09] <im0ose> hello
[21:09] <addchild314> anyone had success with bluetooth stereo in 8.04?
[21:10] <lovre> how do i save results of ls command in a $a variable?
[21:10] <Mercuree> everytime i do apt-get update, certain sources give errors. I am using Ubuntu Hoary
[21:10] <im0ose> can anybody tell me how i can switch to a different chat room?
[21:10] <Mercuree> is it possible that hoary archives are no longer supported
[21:10] <whik> Tobias92 i had the same problem played for 2 secoends then stopped after some research on google and in the archives i fixed it by changing all the options under sound to alsa
[21:10] <sayotte> Anscombe: if it's an LCD monitor you may need to set it to its native resolution to get satisfactory results
[21:10] <nickrud> Mercuree hoary is obsolete, the sources don't exist anymore
[21:10] <xenomorph99> im0ose: /join #some channel
[21:10] <addchild314> mercuree: you still using hoary?
[21:11] <eyemean> hi there, wondering if someonce can tell me how to enable macros in xls files pls?

[21:12] <bluk> Mercuree: hi again; how your serial console problem is going?
[21:12] <Tobias92> whik, everything is changed to alsa, no change
[21:12] <addchild314> mercuree that ur still using hoary... hows it working for you
[21:12] <Scunizi> tj13820: you might have to "sudo mkdir /media/usb" then sudo mount /dev/sdxX /media/usb ... type sudo fdisk -l to get a list of devices currently plugged in.
[21:12] <Mercuree> addchild314 i barely use linux so its working fine :P
[21:12] <whik> Tobias92, thats weird for me it worked gimme a min
[21:12] <Mercuree> Bluk its working
[21:13] <addchild314> mercuree lol, then its ok
[21:13] <Mercuree> just had to unplug it and plug it in again
[21:13] <Mercuree> lol
[21:13] <nickrud> Mercuree you can order them from here, it's faster (probably other places as well) http://www.osdisc.com/cgi-bin/view.cgi/products/linux/ubuntu
[21:13] <Scunizi> tj13820: with that you should be able to discover the partiton name for the usb.. like sda2 or sdb1 something of that sort
[21:13] <ompaul> !lol | Mercuree
[21:13] <Mercuree> thanks nickrud

[21:15] <whik> kk on firefox look for the plugin called xwrap
[21:15] <clintchance> How susceptible is linux to viruses?
[21:15] <Scunizi> Ward1983: and i haven't found a solution.
[21:15] <Scunizi> clintchance: next to none
[21:15] <Anscombe> [21:10] <sayotte> Anscombe: if it's an LCD monitor you may need to set it to its native resolution to get satisfactory  - I did, 800x600, but it goes huge, 1024x768 is the one i want, but its got fuzzy text.
[21:15] <xenomorph99> There exists clamav. So it's susceptible
[21:15] <clintchance> Scunizi,Ok but why?
[21:15] <whik> Tobias92, kk on firefox look for a plugin called xwrap
[21:15] <Kumool> but it is easy to run a script that crashes ur pc :)
[21:15] <Scunizi> clintchance: slim, non-existant, not to worry.. because of the way the system is built
[21:15] <Kumool> or deletes everything
[21:16] <Ward1983> Scunizi, well it did work but i altered settings because i thought my sound didnt work (my mother switched my decoder to analog so i had no sound) and since then it doesnt work anymore, i even set all sliders op, unmute everyhing ,etc
[21:16] <Tobias92> whik, on the mozilla addons site?
[21:16] <whik> Tobias92, oops its caled mediawrap my bad
[21:16] <ompaul> !virus | clintchance
[21:16] <whik> Tobias92 ill post a link
[21:16] <clintchance> Scunizi, then why is there a virus scanner in the Add/Remove thing
[21:16] <ompaul> xenomorph99, ^^ perhaps you would like to read that
[21:16] <whik> Tobias92, https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1879
[21:16] <Scunizi> clintchance: to protect your windows friends.
[21:16] <QUILz> Anscombe: Are you sure 1024x768 is your monitor's native resolution?
[21:17] <xenomorph99> ompaul. Read what? About clamav?
[21:17] <clintchance> Scunizi, LOL
[21:17] <ompaul> xenomorph99, no about however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[21:17] <xenomorph99> I know why. Because no one likes Bill. And because of permissions (which I know all about ;-))
[21:17] <Tobias92> whik, done
[21:18] <maddin> hi :)
[21:18] <Anscombe> [21:16] <QUILz> Anscombe: Are you sure 1024x768 is your monitor's native resolution? - I can't be 100% positive, it's a toshiba laptop. How can I find out?
[21:18] <whik> Tobias92, did it work?
[21:18] <xenomorph99> Anyone used this Diskmounter script?
[21:18] <Tobias92> whik, what worked?
[21:18] <maddin> does anybody know how to set ubuntu to mount my usb-sticks with full write permission?

[21:19] <bluk> clintchance: I think the most important fact is the concept of "permissions" win lacks; in linux, a virus would have the same permission its user have; it can damage the user space, but not the system space.

[21:19] <Telroth|Sleep> I need some help with my DVD drive. The BIOS allows me to boot from it (kubuntu 8.04 dvd), but the drive does not show up at all when running an installed system (kubuntu 8.04 (/dev/scd0 doesn't exist), Vista SP1 (No Optical drives show up in device manager)). Any help is welcome.
[21:19] <Anscombe> So I don't know why it's fuzzy. Screen refresh rate is 60hz which is correct.
[21:19] <matthew_> how much space does the hardy OS occupy?
[21:19] <Mercuree> bluk windows does have permissions, its just less accessible than in linux. its been incorportaed in vista in a major way
[21:19] <Tobias92> whik, no, sadly, the problem persists
[21:20] <bluk> Mercuree: true, but I just wished to highlight a summed up answer :-)
[21:20] <Skorzen> matthew_: less than 5 gb
[21:20] <xenomorph99> Anscombe: I found setting up a Nvidia card to be a pain. You're best downloading the nvidia-settings tool and running it as sudo then letting it update your xconf file
[21:20] <Mercuree> bluk ok :P
[21:21] <whik> Tobias92 check this page out      http://kb.mozillazine.org/Video_or_audio_doesn%27t_play

[21:21] <Scunizi> Anscombe: if you know the right resolution for your screen you can "sudo xrandr -s <resolution>  .. like "sudo xrandr -s 1440x800
[21:22] <Skorzen> matthew_: something like 300 mb
[21:22] <steven2> ?
[21:22] <xenomorph99> I have two HDDs; one is SATA and the other is IDE. Both get reported as being 'sdx' by Ubuntu but they get reported as hda and sda in Mandriva. Is this just a limitation of Ubuntu?

[21:25] <TuniX12> matthew_:  flash bios
[21:25] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: what kind of issues?
[21:25] <jrib> xenomorph99: that's libata, all drives show up as sd* if it's enabled
[21:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !pt
[21:25] <TuniX12> but it's risqued

[21:26] <jrib> xenomorph99: no, why?
[21:26] <matthew_> tunix12; could I get more info. I'm still pretty new, I was just sick of windows
[21:26] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: im sorry, that wasnt the site, let me get it
[21:26] <xenomorph99> because I sort of expected them to be reported as Mandriva sees them.
[21:26] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: ok
[21:27] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: http://www.mitsucars.com/MMNA/jsp/evo/08/index.do?loc=en-us  ... im not sure if its flash or what
[21:27] <matthew_> where is the partition manager, I'm not sure why I can't find it
[21:27] <xenomorph99> Does libata 'swap them around', too ?
[21:27] <TuniX12> matthew_:  you bios does not recognize big hdd i guess your pc is old (?)

[21:27] <matthew_> tunix12 I just got it in april
[21:27] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: i can see it
[21:27] <Jack_Sparrow> matthew_ Be aware that flashing the bios has a small probabliltiy of turning your computr into a doorstop.. If you dont heed that extra 20 gigs yet.  It might be wise to put off flashing the bios until you really need that space
[21:27] <xenomorph99> Because one is IDE and one isn't
[21:28] <adriano> some people can tell me... about wars games ?
[21:28] <xenomorph99> And if they had the same partitions, I wouldn't know which was which necessarily
[21:28] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: i figured it would just be an issue for me, do u have any idea why?

[21:28] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: try the flashplugin-nonfree package and also msttcore-fonts may help
[21:28] <matthew_> skorzen, yes. Jack sparrow, thanks looks like it's what I'm going to have to do, I'm not into killing my computer
[21:28] <Ward1983> my microphone doesnt work anymore, i added all the possible sliders and unmuted everything etc, but nothing helps
[21:28] <asmo[B]> I was wondering if ubuntu had issues with mounting NTFS partitions over a certain size... I've been having troubles trying to get my external drive to mount properly, it displays the drive but when I try to access it, it says that it was unable to mount...
[21:28] <Ward1983> any suggestions?
[21:28] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: im pretty sure i have those installed. Let me double check
[21:28] <joshua__> hey i'm having issues connecting to windows shares on 8.04
[21:29] <whik> hmm is there a way to run Adobe flash CS3 pro without wine or duel booting?
[21:29] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: yep, i have both
[21:29] <TuniX12> matthew_:  as  Jack_Sparrow  said you should be careful
[21:29] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: which browser are you using?
[21:29] <Anscombe> I did sudo xrandr -s 1024x768 but didnt fix fuzzyness.
[21:29] <adriano> hi Jack_Sparrow
[21:29] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: FF 3
[21:30] <xenon_> Anyone has used dmraid on a ntfs partition?
[21:30] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: downgrading ff may help, i don't know...
[21:30] <jrib> xenomorph99: hd* is old, sd* is the new linux, get used to UUIDs and such :)  Set labels if you need to differentiate between partitions
[21:30] <LtL> K^Holtz: it's named msttcorefonts
[21:30] <moonkostar> ’╗┐ Hi, I'm a ubuntu AND a linux newbie..I just got a Dell Inspiron 1420 with ubuntu installed and after doing updates, the sound stopped working.. It seems that my ALSA doesn't work as I get lots of error messages when trying anything ALSA related..can anyone help please?
[21:30] <K^Holtz> LtL: yea, thats what i have
[21:30] <Jack_Sparrow> xenomorph99 mixing ide and sata has been a issue for awhile.. not to mention it seems to slow down some peoples systems to the speed of the slowest drive.. although I have not personally seen it.. but I dont mix ide and sata
[21:30] <clintchance> What application(s) can i use to access files on my CEllphone?
[21:30] <matthew_> Tunix12; I'm okay with leaving it as is, I guess. I was just looking forward to having most of my hdd available as opposed to being hogged by a dormant windows OS
[21:31] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: i guess ur not using 3.0 ?
[21:31] <ajonat> Hi! one question: what's /boot/abi-2.6.24-18-generic for?
[21:31] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: here is another example, the virtual tours will load, but i cannot switch between them http://www.princetonatbostonroad.com/Apartments/module/virtual_tours/
[21:31] <TuniX12> moonkostar: what type of reeor you get?
[21:31] <Jack_Sparrow> matthew_ is it an ide drive?
[21:31] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: actually i'm using ff3 but as long as i don't know what causes your problem, you can downgrade ff :)
[21:32] <xenomorph99> Yes, I can see it's an issue. On the subject of UUIDs, when I first installed Ubuntu, it automatically populated fstab for me quite adequately. But after adding a HDD, it seems that I have to update it by hand. Is it not possible to force Ubuntu to rebuild the fstab file as though it was a first install ?
[21:32] <K^Holtz> Skorzen: haha, ill probably ask around a lil more then, thanks for your help tho
[21:32] <Skorzen> K^Holtz: in that site i have the same problem. tours doesn't load
[21:32] <matthew_> jack_sparrow: i don't think so...
[21:33] <Jack_Sparrow> xenomorph99 It just isnt a big deal for most users.  Editing the fstab takes just a minute or two.. Most people seldom change and move drives around more that once a year
[21:33] <melian_> yop
[21:33] <melian_> please
[21:33] <melian_> j'ai un ptit probleme de wifi
[21:33] <adriano> Skorzen se quiser tc em portuges estou em encantadoxxp em hot mail ponto com
[21:33] <melian_> ya des pros ? ^
[21:33] <clintcance> ..
[21:33] <xenomorph99> But if it can do it once, I can imagine it can do it twice. It's just a general question
[21:33] <Jack_Sparrow> matthew_ Just asking as some ide have jumpers that trick the bios by limiting sectors to 1024
[21:33] <K^Holtz> OK, new problem. Does anyone know why CTRL+ALT+BKSPC doesnt restart X for me?
[21:33] <adriano> thanks friends
[21:34] <loevborg> Does anyone have an IPv6 address?
[21:34] <adriano> have a nice day... i need go out
[21:34] <matthew_> that issue aside: does anyone use dual monitors and no where I can find hardware support so I can use an external monitor with hardy? (I have a nvidia quadro nvs 140m)
[21:34] <Jack_Sparrow> xenomorph99 the short anser is no..
[21:34] <adriano> bye
[21:34] <loevborg> If so, could he send me his name, like so: echo your name | nc6 --send-only 2001:6f8:900:b80::2 9999
[21:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !dualhead
[21:34] <matthew_> jack_sparrow how would I figure that out for certain?
[21:34] <jlilly> What would cause someone not to get system sounds, but be able to hear audio streamed from the internet?
[21:35] <xenomorph99> What does this diskmounter script in the Ubuntu wiki do then?  When system tries to mount the volume, computer freezes. Any ideas?
[21:37] <Telroth|Sleep> I need some help with my DVD drive. The BIOS allows me to boot from it (kubuntu 8.04 dvd), but the drive does not show up at all when running an installed system (kubuntu 8.04 (/dev/scd0 doesn't exist), Vista SP1 (No Optical drives show up in device manager)). Any help is welcome.
[21:37] <maslowbeer> even didn't work with other liveCDs like backtrack
[21:38] <Swish> Telroth|Sleep, what kind of DVD drive is it, SATA, PATA, SCSI..?
[21:38] <TuniX12> matthew_:  i guess the problem is about GB and GiB windows and ubuntu use different names
[21:38] <matthew_> does anyone use dual monitors and no where I can find hardware support so I can use an external monitor with hardy? (I have a nvidia quadro nvs 140m)
[21:39] <matthew_> tunix12: is it possible that windows is still lurking on my computer (for the install I used the live cd, clicked install, and clicked guided use entire disk)
[21:39] <TuniX12> matthew_:  for example 300 GB is 279 GiB
[21:39] <maslowbeer> TuniX12: GB is the proper binary rounded numbered size and GiB is 1000 MiB
[21:40] <matthew_> tunix12: oh thanks, that could be my deal.
[21:40] <QUILz> maslowbeer: Actually, it's the other way around
[21:40] <maslowbeer> actually the other way around my bad ;)
[21:41] <TuniX12>  maslowbeer  no 1 GiB = 230 bytes = 1,073,741,824 bytes = 1024 mebibytes
[21:41] <maslowbeer> which is silly in my opinion since 1 MB has always been 1048576 bytes since time immemerial
[21:42] <maslowbeer> s/immemerial/immemorial/
[21:42] <CircleCode> server irc.recycled-irc.net
[21:42] <TuniX12> yes but manufacturers refer to 1 GB as 1000 MB
[21:42] <TuniX12> its the marketing
[21:42] <debian> TuniX12: 1GiB= 230 bytes?
[21:42] <\\dan\\> anyone got any experience using wacom tablets on ubuntu?
[21:42] <debian> 230 bytes isnt a meg even...
[21:42] <maslowbeer> TuniX12: I know - the marketing tail should never wag the engineering dog.
[21:43] <maslowbeer> don't know how this travesty happened
[21:43] <maslowbeer> :)
[21:43] <guiks_> Hello, I need support to uninstall Ubuntu from my machine.
[21:43] <balgarath> just switching to hardy 64 bit from 32 bit...when trying to install timidity I get: ALSA lib pcm_dmix.c:874:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave     ......any ideas?
[21:43] <guiks_> Is there anyone that can help me
[21:43] <guiks_> ?*
[21:43] <debian> guiks_: Get an openBSD cd
[21:43] <xenomorph99> In what way do you want to get rid of it ?
[21:43] <QUILz> maslowbeer: Happened because of the giga- prefix
[21:43] <balgarath> guiks_, you wanna format, install another OS, what?
[21:43] <\\dan\\> guiks: do you have any other OS's on the machine?
[21:43] <debian> guiks_: then install from it, and then ubuntu is gone, if you format the entire hd.
[21:44] <stripedcat> HELLO everybody! I am 16 years old and I want to help ubuntu developers! I know C++ and I am from Russia! What to do?
[21:44] <TuniX12> debian:  sorry  i cant explain that in english but 2 expos├® 30
[21:44] <guiks_> Well, i have winXP instaled here, but when i installed ubuntu, the winxp didnt appear anymore on boot
[21:44] <debian> TuniX12: 2^30?
[21:44] <guiks_> It goes to ubuntu without asking
[21:44] <TuniX12> yes
[21:44] <dmsuperman> I'm reinstalling Ubuntu, and I had my home dir on another partition. I'm making the same user "dmsuperman" and my profile already exists at /home/dmsuperman. Will it automatically point to the old home directory? Should I be afraid of it overwriting my old home directory
[21:44] <\\dan\\> does the GRUB menu list come up?
[21:44] <rulr_> when i start update menager i am getting this error: W: GPG error: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com hardy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY<PHONE_NUMBER>7EE263
[21:44] <n-iCe> how is the command to remove a package?
[21:44] <TuniX12> debian: goto http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibibyte
[21:44] <xenomorph99> guiks - it shouldn't have done that. Does a menu appear when you boot ?
[21:45] <TuniX12> so 160 GB is really 133 GiB
[21:45] <\\dan\\> n-iCe: sudo apt-get remove <nameofpackage>
[21:45] <dmsuperman> guiks_: hit escape when it boots to get the menu
[21:45] <dmsuperman> guiks_: but xenomorph99 is right, it should default to showing the menu for something like 30s
[21:45] <debian> TuniX12: I understand you now. I thougth you said one GB was 230 bytes. But what you meant was 2^30 witch is correct.
[21:45] <TuniX12> matthew_: you dont have problem at all!!
[21:45] <maslowbeer> problem is google calc recognizes old: 1 MB in bytes results in 1 megabyte = 1 048 576 bytes
[21:45] <guiks_> Hum..  ok, i`ll try it..
[21:45] <gorg_> which "sudo apt-get ...." do i have to run to get flash?
[21:45] <xenomorph99> guiks - hang on
[21:45] <asmo[B]> is there anyone that could help me with mounting my NTFS external drive?
[21:45] <stripedcat> Anyone from RUSSIA here???
[21:45] <TuniX12> debian: yes
[21:45] <maslowbeer> google calc doesn't even recognize MiB
[21:45] <matthew_> tunix12: that was a fantastic conversation: i thoroughly enjoyed reading it. Thanks guys!
[21:46] <n-iCe> \\dan\\,  I know that, but there is something else, auto-purge or something like that
[21:46] <xenomorph99> When you turn your machine on, do you get a menu? Do you get some white text on a black background asking you how to boot Ubuntu?
[21:46] <\\dan\\> n-iCe: apt-get purge <packagename>
[21:47] <n-iCe> what's the difference?
[21:47] <rulr> when i start update manager i am getting this error: W: GPG error: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com hardy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY<PHONE_NUMBER>7EE263

[21:47] <\\dan\\> n-iCe: remove - Remove packages purge - Remove and purge packages
[21:48] <debian> dd /dev/random /dev/sda should do it?
[21:48] <LinuxMonkey> jrib: i allready pasted what he needed to do for rulr
[21:48] <TuniX12> debian: to install debian :D
[21:48] <gorg_> i want flash player
[21:48] <\\dan\\> n-iCe: purge should remove everything the package files created
[21:48] <TuniX12> gorg_: FF will do that for you
[21:48] <archimedes> Hi, does anyone know how to keep a mic working (in teamspeak) and yet have their soundcard set up for 5.1 surround when changing  "/etc/pulse/daemon.conf"
[21:48] <knifa> Hi there. I'm having a problem with my wireless dongle. I have an MSI-6865, which has an RT5000. I can detect the wireless networks and being to connect to them, but it never connects. I've tried with both encryption on and off but I still can't connect. Any ideas of what could be the problem?
[21:49] <xenomorph99> Has you tried booting with the dongle already in ?
[21:49] <jrib> LinuxMonkey: missed it, thanks
[21:49] <stripedcat> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>Does anyone know what is the reason that- Youtube flash movies and other flash files are really slow on Ubuntu hardy??????<<<<<<<
[21:49] <knifa> It's less of a dongle more of an intergrated USB wireless thing. I'm on a laptop
[21:49] <knifa> it's using USB though.
[21:49] <xenon_> Anyone has experience with dmraid and ntfs partitions?
[21:49] <gorg_> FF will not run videos :(
[21:49] <dmsuperman> stripedcat: what version of flash do you have?
[21:49] <rulr> LinuxMonkey: thx a lot, it works
[21:50] <debian> TuniX12: dd /dev/random /dev/sda or hda would remove ubuntu:P
[21:50] <asmo[B]> Does anyone know why my NTFS partition shows up but when I try to access it, it says unable to mount...
[21:50] <dmsuperman> knifa: USB devices aren't inegrated

[21:50] <jrib> TuniX12: take care that debian is making a joke
[21:50] <stripedcat> dmsuperman: Flash9
[21:50] <xenomorph99> Actually, they are. I have a USB dvd writer that is 'integrated'
[21:50] <stripedcat> the new one
[21:50] <knifa> dmsuperman: The laptop is terrible. The wireless board is a little seperate thing sitting near the battery pack, with the USB pins right onto the board.
[21:50] <gorg_> \\dan\\: thanks
[21:50] <debian> jrib: My syntax was wrong? It wouldn't uninstall ubuntu?
[21:50] <dmsuperman> stripedcat: I mean is it the restricted close source one or the bad one
[21:51] <xenomorph99> But I take your point
[21:51] <TuniX12> debian jrib: ubuntu= ii just dont want to configure debian!!!!!!!!!
[21:51] <TuniX12> :D
[21:51] <stripedcat> dmsuperman:original, from Adobe
[21:51] <xenomorph99> knifa: Does it work when you use the live CD?
[21:51] <dmsuperman> knifa: I was just saying your statement about it not being an integrated USB device was redundant, since USB devices aren't integrated (in almost all cases at least)
[21:51] <remu> hey guys, I've run into a problem. I run a ubuntu home file server, and my laptop which is connected to the lan can access the videos on it no problem, as can my desktop that is connected to it wirelessly. However, my sisters laptop is connected wirelessly to the lan as well, BUT she is having a hard time playing the videos, I've tried various different video players, vlc, mplayer, and totem, none of them are playing the videos on
[21:51] <remu> the nfs file server anymore, it did before, but it no longer does. The two things I've done since last time and now is upgrade her laptop to Hardy, and encrypt my wireless with WPA2
[21:51] <knifa> dmsuperman: ah.
[21:51] <remu> any help or recommendations?
[21:51] <knifa> xenomorph99: Nope.
[21:52]  * DIL thinks his name is redundant
[21:52] <xenon_> Anyone has experience with dmraid and ntfs partitions?
[21:52] <xenomorph99> Dunno then. I had a wireless dongle that worked fine from the live CD or if it was already in when I booted. It had the same chipset as yours
[21:52] <knifa> weird.
[21:53] <knifa> It gets like half way connecting, but never fully connects.
[21:53] <aceinthehole> Hey guys -- is there a channel specifically for ubuntu server?
[21:53] <knifa> It scans, tries to connect, asks for the password, etc.
[21:53] <knifa> In the last version of Ubuntu it connected, but only for about 10mins.
[21:53] <BCM43> aceinthehole: ask here
[21:53] <xenomorph99> That was with xubuntu, though. I ended up swapping the network 'module'
[21:53] <xenomorph99> Yeah, sounds like the same problem I had
[21:53] <\\dan\\> demu: have you installed the NFS package on the laptop?
[21:54] <xenomorph99> I think I used this different network module that was written in Python or similar
[21:54] <xenomorph99> It was more reliable but not much more. I can't remember what it was called
[21:54] <knifa> hm

[22:05] <aceinthehole> BCM43 - doesn't give me an error code, no description of the problem ... nothing
[22:05] <Stroganoff> Y-Town, try this meanwhile. this tutorial explains how to add a custom "Modeline" to the xorg.conf http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=83973 -- and here is one of many modeline generators. just put in your desired resolution and refresh rate. http://bohne-lang.de/spec/linux/modeline/
[22:05] <Laptzo> lejon: well it show Wlan in network manager so iam asuming it works
[22:05] <BCM43> aceinthehole: what disk are you using?
[22:05] <skillet> aceinthehole, did you try to do the lamp install after ubuntu was already installed...
[22:05] <aceinthehole> BCM43 - Ubuntu Server 8.04 installed an primary hdd with default partition scheme
[22:05] <lejon> Laptzo, Can you connect to wireless networks and it works?
[22:05] <aceinthehole> skillet - no, during basic install
[22:06] <TuniX12> Laptzo: install  ndiswrapper
[22:06] <BCM43> aceinthehole: no, i mean what cd
[22:06] <skillet> aceinthehole, i would try doing it afterwards with apt-get
[22:06] <Laptzo> lejon: how do i connect to a wireless network..no icon nothing for it
[22:06] <Y-Town> Stroganoff: if you posted anything befor your last post I missed it, I set the resolution to a different one with another refresh and lost everything and had to restart X
[22:06] <Laptzo> TuniX12: i doubt that is the best method atm
[22:06] <bakersfieldboy_> whats a good site builder ?
[22:06] <Y-Town> Stroganoff: can you repost please
[22:06] <TuniX12> Laptzo:  sudo apt-get install ndisgtk
[22:06] <lejon> Laptzo, you have any specific wireless network you wanna connect to? Because then you got to network manager and manually configure ur wifi card for it
[22:06] <mehehool> hi i need help i am trying to install a belkin wireless card and i was told that i needed a winxp 64bit .inf well i finally got one but ndis says its invalid driver can u help
[22:06] <aceinthehole> BCM43 - I'm not sure which build it is specifically, but it's mirrored on the ubuntu web site (Ubuntu Server 8.04)
[22:06] <Stroganoff> Y-Town im sorry about that. my last post is essential with the two links.
[22:07] <Sun01Tech> right now at install prompt with the prepare a disk space i chose using entire disk of 320 gb sata drive...its just stuck at this window the mouse icon is busy and no forward button highlighted...what should i do?
[22:07] <Stroganoff> i just said the underlying Xorg display backend is currently going through some very difficult changes, whatever
[22:07] <Y-Town> Stroganoff: Thank you, I will look at the link
[22:08] <aceinthehole> BCM43 did that answer your question? thx for helping btw
[22:08] <gorg_> me think so to. trouble all the way for me with it :)
[22:08] <BCM43> aceinthehole: yes
[22:08] <Stroganoff> Sun01Tech you could try the alternate iso
[22:08] <Laptzo> TuniX12: what did that do?
[22:08] <danand_> Sun01Tech - how long has it been stuck?
[22:08] <BCM43> aceinthehole: try the alternate desktop CD.
[22:09] <Sun01Tech> stronganoff: i tried that and still i can't finish the install.......
[22:09] <BCM43> aceinthehole: it is text based and supports more hardware, and it should give you errors
[22:09] <skillet> BCM43, thats not going to give him the option do install a lamp stack
[22:09] <aceinthehole> BCM43 - I was thinking of doing that, but I was reading the server kernal was configured a bit differently
[22:09] <Sun01Tech> danand_: for like 10 or 15 minutes
[22:09] <Stroganoff> Sun01Tech you're talking about a mouse icon? the alternate cd is text based menus only
[22:09] <gorg_> in FireFox, after typing "about:plugins" i get one section not being enabled. this is the "Default Plugin" and i am not able to view any videos with firefox.. :|
[22:09] <aceinthehole> BCM43 - yeah, I'm not using that GUI install, just the basic ANSI ... it looks almost exactly like the Debian installer
[22:09] <Telroth|Sleep> I need some help with my DVD drive. The BIOS allows me to boot from it (kubuntu 8.04 dvd), but the drive does not show up at all when running an installed system (kubuntu 8.04 (/dev/scd0 doesn't exist), Vista SP1 (No Optical drives show up in device manager)). Any help is welcome.
[22:10] <BCM43> skillet: aceinthehole ok, i dont know, wait unitill one of the really high up people get here, i dont think any body here knows
[22:10] <lejon> Laptzo, otherwise you could try using wicd as ur network manager, if ur wireless card already work, otherwise you gotta get that sorted first :P
[22:10] <Sun01Tech> stronganoff: yeah i tried with that but it gives stop error exit error doesnt finish the install
[22:10] <Laptzo> lejon: yah it work i think..
[22:10] <BCM43> aceinthehole: you dont have the option for a text based install?
[22:10] <aceinthehole> BCM43 - Cool, thx man. It's so frustrating that there arnet any error logs I can read
[22:10] <gorg_> Telroth|Sleep: u might wanna try #kubuntu
[22:10] <skillet> aceinthehole, what i would do and what i always do when i install a lamp stack is install it after ubuntu is already up
[22:10] <aceinthehole> BCM43 it is text based
[22:10] <danand_> Sun01Tech - hmm... can take a while to prepare a disk (especially 320Gb!) - give it a while longer... if nothing happens try preparing your disk from a live cd first...
[22:10] <BCM43> aceinthehole: and no errors? that is strange.
[22:11] <bert_> Hi all, i just made a mistake i think.  I did install xmms2 but since then my sound is gone (i removed xmms2 already and rebooted) Is there a way to restore the sound system?
[22:11] <Sun01Tech> danand_: ok
[22:11] <lejon> Laptzo, well, then you're just lost on how to configure it how to connect to a wireless network
[22:11] <aceinthehole> skillet - I was going to try that, but I can't even get that far
[22:11] <Laptzo> lejon: sec
[22:11] <aceinthehole> BCM43 /nod
[22:11] <afallenhope> hey! I just came in here talkin about my SWAP increasing... how do I do it?
[22:11] <skillet> aceinthehole, oh i didnt know you couldnt get past that spot
[22:12] <aceinthehole> BCM43 Skillet - it's a strange one ... I wish I had more to go on
[22:12] <DIL> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ubuntu-804-hardy-heron-lamp-server-setup.html
[22:12] <TuniX12> bert_: go to volume manager and choose alsa as default server
[22:12] <cjk2> afallenhope: you hardly need to
[22:12] <aceinthehole> skillet yeah, it's never happened before, so I tried downloading off another mirror, same results
[22:12] <crimsun> bert_: hmm, installing a program shouldn't wreck your sound system.  Can you hear anything with `paplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav' ?
[22:12] <skillet> aceinthehole, well what i would do then is install with the alt cd. then once that is up and running you can install the server kernel along with the lamp stack
[22:12] <TuniX12> xmms2 uses OSS server
[22:12] <afallenhope> cjk2: yeah. I'm running VMWare
[22:12] <afallenhope> cjk2: well.. Linux with VMWare emulating Windows lol.
[22:13] <aceinthehole> skillet that's what I was afraid of, lol, I tend to mess things up when I start apt-getting kernels ...
[22:13] <BCM43> aceinthehole: you have installed it fine before?
[22:13] <w3D> good evening channel ^_^
[22:13] <mehehool> hi i need help i am trying to install a belkin wireless card and i was told that i needed a winxp 64bit .inf well i finally got one but ndis says its invalid driver when i tried the 32 bit .inf it said it was valid and the device was found but i still couldnt get it to work im running 64 bit ubuntu
[22:13] <bert_> kmix is my volume manager?
[22:13] <ajitam> Hi I got 2MB internet connection but last few day speed is around 50 do 70 Kb/s I have I feeling that something is blocking my connection. How can I see witch programs are currently runing ?
[22:13] <aceinthehole> BCM43 oh yes, I have several servers at work running great with ubuntu, and I've had my home server running fine in the past too ... but this is a new thing
[22:14] <DIL> top
[22:14] <Sun01Tech> danand_: i didnt even want to use the entire disk for ubuntu but it doesnt let me get guide partition resizer for the disk i want to install on ...it only list the first disk so i went with guide...even i tried doing manual with ext3 and swap which i had no problems with install in the past
[22:14] <Slart> ajitam: netstat can check for processes using sockets
[22:14] <BCM43> aceinthehole: try installing regular ubuntu, it should be able to do what the server does, maybe it will give you errors. if not, have you dropped it recently?
[22:14] <TuniX12> ajitam:  program does not block your connection
[22:15] <Slart> ajitam: I think there is a top like program for network stats too.. can't remember the name though
[22:15] <aceinthehole> BCM43 dropped?
[22:15] <Flare183> ajitam: Find the System Monitor on the System Menu
[22:15] <ajitam> TuniX12: I meent limit
[22:15] <BCM43> aceinthehole: as in falling and hitting the floor. ;)
[22:15] <Slart> ajitam: you can impose limits on your network connection.. but it's nothing you do "by accident" =)
[22:15] <aceinthehole> BCM43 oh no, oh gosh no
[22:15] <ajitam> Flare183: I have only terminal
[22:15] <TuniX12> ajitam:  i doubt a problem could limit the connection
[22:15] <BCM43> aceinthehole: lol, just kidding
[22:15] <Flare183> ajitam: Then use elinks
[22:16] <danand_> Sun01Tech - if you know how you want to partition the disk i would suggest using gparted on the live cd to partition and format etc before you try and install...
[22:16] <aceinthehole> BCM43 I busted my hand up though, lol ... swinging and cursing in the air and I managed to smack the edge of the rack
[22:16] <Flare183> wait a sec
[22:16] <bert_> paplay gives E: client-conf-x11.c: XOpenDisplay() failed
[22:16] <Flare183> ajitam: type in top on another prompt
[22:16] <Flare183> prompt/terminal*
[22:16] <BCM43> aceinthehole: hmm.. maybe that did it. Do you have a hard hand?
[22:16] <danand_> ajitam - try netstat?
[22:16] <themad> hi, i've got pulseaudio installed on gusty (laptop). How can I change internal microphone to external?
[22:17] <aceinthehole> BCM43 alright bud, I'll give the alternate a try and see how that goes. I was going to put a gui on anyhow for admin
[22:17] <coopster> I'm trying to remove gnome-panel from my desktop and I can't get it to work.  Running `gnome-session-remove gnome-panel` just locks up the terminal I run it in (running gnome-session-remove --list also locks it up).  If I remove gnome-panel from Sessions and then hit save session, the next time I log in nothing at all (neither Compiz nor avant) loads, and I have to rename ,gnome2/session to fix it, causing gnome-panel to reappear.
[22:17] <aceinthehole> BCM43 lol, apparently I do! It's purple but doesn't hurt.. hahhaa
[22:17] <coopster> Can anyone help?
[22:17] <BCM43> !ask | coopster
[22:17] <Sun01Tech> danand_: i will try that hope it helps thanks
[22:17] <danand_> Sun01Tech - luck :)
[22:18] <B_166-ER-X> ok,i'VE been at it 3 DAYS, and i cannot find anything of help actually 'working' on the web so please someone .. : I,m trying to make work a 'webcam' on gutsy, but i keep having just a blck/blue screen, if anyone have experience with v4l2 , please !
[22:18] <coopster> BCM43: I merely made my question a question by adding "Can anyone help?" at the end...
[22:18] <BCM43> coopster: sorry, did not see the thing before.
[22:18]  * DIL neighbors tried to use0 my wireless as it was open
[22:18] <danand_> B_166-ER-X - you may have seen this .... but !webcams
[22:18] <w3D> damn those theifs!
[22:18] <themad> can anyone tell me how to change recording from internal microphone to external in pulseaudio?
[22:18] <Flare183> DIL: I know how that is, I got a program that kicks and bans people from the router if they try doing that
[22:19]  * DIL to hell
[22:19] <Telroth|Sleep> I need some help with my DVD drive. The BIOS allows me to boot from it (kubuntu 8.04 dvd), but the drive does not show up at all when running an installed system (kubuntu 8.04 (/dev/scd0 doesn't exist), Vista SP1 (No Optical drives show up in device manager)). Any help is welcome.
[22:19] <xoomthemodder> anyone using hardy and VPC 2007 crash on boot?
[22:19] <danand_> !webcams | B_166-ER-X

[22:20] <DIL> ...
[22:20] <B_166-ER-X> danand_ in fact, its not a 'webcam' as jsute a small video cam plugged in the 'composite' input of my video card. so every help about 'webcams' doenst really fit, since i'm not sure the 'composite' input is in /dev/video0
[22:20] <\\dan\\> wacom tablets anyone?
[22:20] <coopster> Curse you gnome-panel!  I just can't get rid of it!
[22:20] <ajitam> danand_:  I typed netstat but what I'm looking for ?
[22:21] <B_166-ER-X> I've tested it mon my tv, and the cam works, the problem i guess is jsut a matter of configuration of v4l or v4l2 or something
[22:21] <aceinthehole> coopster what did you say you were doing wit gnome?
[22:21] <coopster> I'm trying to remove gnome-panel from my desktop and I can't get it to work.  Running `gnome-session-remove gnome-panel` just locks up the terminal I run it in (running gnome-session-remove --list also locks it up).  If I remove gnome-panel from Sessions and then hit save session, the next time I log in nothing at all (neither Compiz nor avant) loads, and I have to rename ,gnome2/session to fix it, causing gnome-panel to reappear.
[22:21] <B_166-ER-X> gstreamer-propertis or cheese cannot grab any video either
[22:21] <fkm> hi :D
[22:21] <Flare183> !repeat | coopster
[22:22] <coopster> Flare183: aceinthehole asked me to reiterate...
[22:22] <ajitam> I installed wondershaper but I removed it now so I don't think this could couse the problem
[22:22] <fkm> bibue good night guys :) UNIX FOREVER =D
[22:22] <danand_> ajitam - any processes/connections that may be stealing your bandwidth... look for tcp or udp connections.
[22:22] <Slart> ajitam: ah.. you might have some iptables rules still in place then
[22:22] <perplexed> so ubuntu is the new wave uhh?
[22:22] <Flare183> coopster: oh ok continue
[22:22] <TuniX12> Telroth|Sleep: even vista does not recognize it?
[22:22] <aceinthehole> coopster yeah the .gnome2 directory saves your sessions and preferences, so renaming it would do that. Have you put everything back to default by erasing .gnome .gnome2 .metacity .gconf and .gconfd ?
[22:22] <w3D> ubuntu is an alternative to toast
[22:23] <Slart> ajitam: what does "sudo iptables -L" print out.. just the 3 empty chains? or lots and lots of text?
[22:23] <ajitam> Slart: So what do I do ?
[22:23] <B_166-ER-X> !v4l2
[22:23] <danand_> B_166-ER-X - in that case ... i don't know :)
[22:23] <B_166-ER-X> !v4l
[22:23] <jokoon> Hello, my firefox crashes when I close a tab on web mail gmail, whats happening ?
[22:23] <Flare183> !askthebot > B_166-ER-X
[22:23] <perplexed> does it have good driver support?
[22:23] <Slart> jokoon: run it from a terminal and see what kind of error you get
[22:23] <w3D> google has stolen your mailz and using them for pornographic material.
[22:23] <perplexed> i need to make sure my atheros ar5007 wifi adapter works with it
[22:23] <themad> jokoon, you are using beta version of firefox?
[22:23] <coopster> aceinthehole: well, I'm not sure I really want everything back to default, I just want gnome-panel gone.  I've made changes in gconf that I'd like to keep.
[22:23] <Flare183> What the....!?
[22:24] <jokoon> themad yes, from the 8.04 release
[22:24] <B_166-ER-X> danand_ yeah,  my problem is, I USED to have it working on all versions of ubuntu since hoary, with xdtv mostly, i'm on gutsy now, and even if it worked before on gutsy, i reinstalled and now..it wont.
[22:24] <ajitam> Slart: a lot of text is that bad :) sorry I new at this :)
[22:24] <coopster> !ot | w3D
[22:24] <Flare183> coopster: Had the same problem before, switch to KDE it's what you need
[22:24] <coopster> I got to bot someone that time =)
[22:24] <tj13820> is there a package for linux-restricted-modules-*version*-server.deb with all dependencies included for offline install?
[22:24] <israel_> GraNDE PAPA
[22:25] <israel_> muy buenas
[22:25] <israel_> gracias carlos
[22:25] <israel_> impeke
[22:25] <israel_> impecable
[22:25] <jokoon> Slart it says "Illegal instruction"
[22:25] <Slart> ajitam: hehe.. no worries.. the firewall in ubuntu (and most linux distro's) is called iptables.. wondershaper just helps you set it up.. so when you uninstalled wondershaper the settings remained
[22:25] <Flare183> !ot | iratsu
[22:25] <israel_> y ahora
[22:25] <israel_> jajaja
[22:25] <coopster> Flare183: blarg!  I've tweaked absolutely everything I need except gnome-panel and i have to start over again/
[22:25] <coopster> !es | israel_
[22:25] <w3D> that was kind
[22:25] <Slart> ajitam: you'll have to clear them.. hang on.. let me find you a nice webpage with instructions
[22:25] <w3D> your a find person
[22:25] <w3D> i love u bot
[22:25] <w3D> kind*
[22:25] <ajitam> Slart: thx
[22:26]  * Flare183 is about to trigger the banning hammer
[22:26] <Slart> w3D: do you have a question about ubuntu?
[22:26] <coopster> Seems reasonable, buncha nuts out today...
[22:26] <perplexed> anyone have an atheros ar5007 wifi card?
[22:26] <israel_> sorry
[22:26] <israel_> im sorry
[22:26] <israel_> I was wrong the channel
[22:27] <w3D> your a channel??
[22:27] <Flare183> w3D: I wouldn't go there.
[22:27] <w3D> i shall cease.
[22:27] <Sun01Tech> danand_:  i want to have a ntfs storge on the 320 gd drive....shouuld i put the ext3 first then swap then the ntfs storage partition...sounds ok
[22:27] <IndyGunFreak> Sun01Tech: i would make swap, ext3, ntfs
[22:27] <aquo> ŃüĪŃéÅ
[22:28] <eddie> hi there!
[22:28] <coopster> !hi | eddie
[22:28] <IndyGunFreak> Sun01Tech: but either would likely work
[22:28] <[T]ank> so i am moving from 7.10 to 8.04. The problem i am running into is that when i select install from the CD, the screen just goes black and nothing else ever happens. 7.10 installs just fine. I just tried installing debian, I had to use the nofb option to overcome this same issue... how do i get past this in ubuntu 8.04
[22:28] <coopster> That was always my favorite bottie feature.
[22:28] <[T]ank> i tried a few variations of selectiong acpi=off and such... but cant figure this out.
[22:29] <coopster> [T]ank: does it immediately go blank or does it show the Ubuntu splash screen?
[22:29] <[T]ank> no splash screen
[22:29] <Wallgod> hi there, the way we can use F11 in firefox to make full screen, can we do something similar to make any application full screen?
[22:29] <Sun01Tech> IndyGunFreak: what about the mbr...would ubuntu automatically set it up with the swap area being first..will use grub...or is that space reserved ?
[22:29] <w3D> *throws water*
[22:29] <coopster> [T]ank: do you happen to have a nVidia 8600 or similar?
[22:29] <[T]ank> ati
[22:29] <Telroth|Sleep> I need some help with my DVD drive. The BIOS allows me to boot from it (kubuntu 8.04 dvd), but the drive does not show up at all when running an installed system (kubuntu 8.04 (/dev/scd0 doesn't exist), Vista SP1 (No Optical drives show up in device manager)). Any help is welcome.
[22:29] <IndyGunFreak> Sun01Tech: yes, swap being first will not effect the mbr
[22:30] <coopster> Wallgod: do you use Compiz (for visual effects like wobbly windows) ?
[22:30] <Sun01Tech> IndyGunFreak: thanks
[22:30] <[T]ank> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Radeon Mobility M300]
[22:30] <Wallgod> yes i do
[22:30] <ggeecko> if I am using gnome, how can I have text dispayed in the background on the desktop
[22:30] <xoomthemodder> Telroth|Sleep: SATA or IDE drive?
[22:30] <Guest39521> i have a problem with a horizon monitor (22 inch model 2206SW) on ubuntu 8.04. the main ideea is that i have tried to install envy /  hardy's  / nvidia's / fglrx drivers and none could provide me a higher resolution than 640x480. any ideeas ?
[22:30] <Wallgod> coopster, yes i do
[22:30] <Slart> does anyone know of an easy way to reset iptables rules? or just go back to the defaults?
[22:30] <Sun01Tech> good size for swap? i have 320gb hd
[22:31] <Guest39521> Slart: iptables -F
[22:31] <coopster> [T]ank: Sorry, I don't really know then.  It may be worth waiting a while to see if the blank screen is just the splash screen failing to show up;  I used to have that problem, but it eventually would boot into Ubuntu just fine.
[22:31] <Slart> Guest39521: nice.. but no point for you.. it still leaves the chain defaults intact
[22:31] <derspankster> Sun01Tech, installed ram times 2
[22:31] <[T]ank> yeah, tried that
[22:31] <amenado> [T]ank-> you have the liveCD iso for 8.04? would you like to install from the hard disk?
[22:31] <Guest39521> Slart: maybe after you alter the rules / iptables-save
[22:31] <[T]ank> amenado: no, i use the alternate cd
[22:32] <Wallgod> coopster, hi, i do use compiz
[22:32] <mysterycool> Hello.
[22:32] <ajitam> Slart: Does iptables become active right after startup because I noticed that connection is ok for about 5min after reboot
[22:32] <mysterycool> Is there a WYSIWYG editor for Linux, such as Front Page or Dreamweaver?
[22:32] <Guest39521> i have a problem with a horizon monitor (22 inch model 2206SW) on ubuntu 8.04. the main ideea is that i have tried to install envy /  hardy's  / nvidia's / fglrx drivers and none could provide me a higher resolution than 640x480. any ideeas ?
[22:32] <Guest39521> mysterycool: quanta
[22:32] <coopster> Wallgod: If you run `sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager` it will let you go to System -. preferences -> advanced desktop settings
[22:32] <amenado> [T]ank-> its okay too, you can use the alternate cd, do you have a partitions ready to install ?
[22:32] <Wallgod> coopster, yes i can already do that
[22:33] <asmo[B]> does anyone know why everytime I turn my external drive on (NTFS partitions) it gives me an error mounting... says that it had an unclean shutdown...
[22:33] <mysterycool> Guest39521: Does it handle also server scripting coding such as PHP or only HTML/CSS/Javascript?
[22:33] <[T]ank> amenado: yeah, will this install over debian?
[22:33] <lejon> eddie_leu, What graphic card you have?
[22:33] <loderunnah> Where do I find a list of fresh, working HTTP proxies in plain text format? Google is full of thousands and thousands of crappy sites on these search terms, so it's useless...

[22:33] <amenado> [T]ank-> i believe so, it will install
[22:33] <[T]ank> lets try...
[22:33] <yesudeep2> mysterycool: However, I suggest staying away from them.  :-)
[22:33] <[T]ank> im open to new things
[22:33] <eddie_leu> lejon: nvidia GT 8800
[22:33] <coopster> Wallgod: from there you can set Extra WM Actions, and one of the options allows you to toggle windows fullscreen
[22:33] <yesudeep2> mysterycool: WYOM
[22:33] <[T]ank> amenado: guide me
[22:33] <Slart> Guest42507: hmm.. worth a closer look.. there are scripts like this one, http://pikt.org/pikt/samples/reset_iptables_programs.cfg.html , but it seems like ubuntu should come with something like that for resetting the firewall rules.. perhaps some kind of dpkg-reconfigure
[22:34] <amenado> [T]ank-> ok lets give it a shot,  prepare a partition
[22:34] <lejon> eddie_leu, checked ur xorg.conf and see if something is amiss with that? Otherwise you could try to reconfigure it with a command you find xorg.conf
[22:34] <[T]ank> /dev/sda
[22:34] <lejon> in xorg.conf*
[22:34] <Slart> ajitam: I think they are activated when you boot.. but the wondershaper rules might not kick in until a certain time after startup..
[22:34] <mysterycool> yesudeep2: I am not really a fun of them but I always have problems with colors at my webs and I want to be able to have it in a more "visual" way so I could get over it.
[22:34] <{^KinG^}> hi all
[22:34] <loderunnah> Where do I find a list of fresh, working HTTP proxies in plain text format? Google is full of thousands and thousands of crappy sites on these search terms, so it's useless...
[22:34] <amenado> [T]ank-> are you planning to use same partition as your old debian?
[22:34] <[T]ank> yep
[22:34] <matthew_> has anyone had problems installing firefox themes?
[22:35] <w3D> could someone help me with setting up dual boot.
[22:35] <[T]ank> i want to install over everything so i have only one partition with just ubuntu on it
[22:35] <{^KinG^}> how i can install GTK 2.0 for use Themes GTK 2x
[22:35] <lejon> w3D dual boot with what?
[22:35] <Wallgod> coopster, oh thank u so much...
[22:35] <amenado> [T]ank-> i suggest using a separate partition just in case things dont work well during install
[22:35] <w3D> Vista and Ubuntu
[22:35] <coopster> Wallgod: not a problem
[22:35] <w3D> have each OS on seperate hard drives.
[22:35] <[T]ank> amenado: i can just nuke it and redo 7.10
[22:35] <w3D> have to enter BIOS to change each time.
[22:35] <[T]ank> lets just do one.
[22:35] <lejon> w3D install Vista first and it should be no problem, just make sure you have them on different partitions, prim├żry partitions too
[22:35] <eddie_leu> lejon: i have manually altered the xorg.conf, and increased the resolution to 800x600, but it just "overflow" my monitor...
[22:35] <loderunnah> Where do I find a list of fresh, working HTTP proxies in plain text format? Google is full of thousands and thousands of crappy sites on these search terms, so it's useless...
[22:36] <w3D> yeah, i have no issue
[22:36] <w3D> i just unplugged my vista hard drive when i installed the ubuntu one.
[22:36] <coopster> !ot | loderunnah
[22:36] <amenado> [T]ank-> okay, you proly already have the debootstrap
[22:36] <lejon> w3d oh, they are on seperate hdds?
[22:36] <w3D> but i have no boot selection menu
[22:36] <w3D> yeah.
[22:36] <{^KinG^}> how i can install GTK 2.0 for use Themes GTK 2x
[22:36] <matthew_> has anyone had an "unexpected install error" while installing a new Firefox theme?
[22:36] <[T]ank> amenado: lets pm.. easier to keep track of convo.
[22:36] <amenado> [T]ank-> hang a few..let me find my notes
[22:36] <lejon> eddie_leu, try to reconfigure xorg.conf with the command in the file and see if it auto detects ur monitor
[22:36] <{^KinG^}> any one ?
[22:37] <Sun01Tech> w3D: you can setup grub from your linux drive to boot into your windows drive and ubuntu
[22:37] <eddie_leu> lejon: what is the command ?
[22:37] <ajhtiredwolf> Hi, i installed Fedora 9 and couldnt get my Realtek 8111/8169 LAN Driver drivers to work, does anyone know if they would work on ubuntu?
[22:37] <w3D> how can i do this? im new to linux. grub is the linux boot command?
[22:37] <lejon> eddie_leu, Its in the xorg.conf file somewhere, let me check my own brb a few secs
[22:37] <Slart> ajitam: I can't find a really easy way to reset the ipfilters to default settings..
[22:37] <lejon> w3D linux boot loader
[22:37] <nano_> on firefox download day?  will it also count if we were to download from repositories?
[22:37] <kbrosnan> matthew_: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Unable+to+install+add-ons
[22:38] <kbrosnan> nano_: no
[22:38] <Slart> ajitam: this page has a script.. you can open a text editor and copy paste the blue text
[22:38] <w3D> yikes
[22:38] <matthew_> kbrosnan; thanks
[22:38] <Slart> ajitam: http://pikt.org/pikt/samples/iptables_reset_programs.cfg.html
[22:38] <w3D> where do i edit its values?
[22:38] <DIL> w3D: if your vista disk in not connected when installing ubuntu grud wont see it to do it auto otherwise you would have to manually add vista to grub
[22:38] <amenado> [T]ank-> okay join me in #tank1
[22:38] <w3D> how do i go about doing that
[22:38] <nano_> kbrosnan, thast too bad
[22:38] <lejon> w3D, gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:38] <Slart> nano_: I don't think so
[22:38] <w3D> last time i left my vista disc in when installed mandriva on my second hdd grub fucked up vista hdd
[22:39] <mysterycool> I was wondering, if you use WYSIWYG programs to create a website, would the cross-browser problem (especially with IE) be solved and you won't have to do extra coding so that your website will work with IE too? I don't mean Javascript, I just mean the HTML/CSS part.
[22:39] <mysterycool> ?
[22:39] <ajhtiredwolf> w3D only way i could get it to work was to install on the same ahrddrive and unplug the secondary until after the install, vista, then linux
[22:39] <coopster> Cmon fellas (and ladies)!  Surely someone must want to tackle the intriguing and exciting problem of making gnome-panel not load!
[22:39] <lejon> eddie_leu, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  thats the command
[22:39] <nano_> Slart, well, maybe they will have .deb packages
[22:39] <coopster> !ot | mysterycool
[22:39] <w3D> thanks for the infoz ;)
[22:39] <Slart> nano_: or just download it once for every computer you are using it on
[22:39] <mysterycool> coopster: omg, lol, sorry! I though I was asking in #css
[22:39] <henrique> Brazilian?
[22:39] <coopster> np
[22:39] <mysterycool> :p
[22:39] <{^KinG^}> how i can install GTK 2.0 for use Themes GTK 2x
[22:39] <Slart> nano_: I don't think they are counting installs.. just downloads..  (I'm just guessing of course.. I have no real idea of what they are counting)
[22:40] <Sun01Tech> w3D: you would probably have to map your windows drive to make it look like hd0 i have links on this cause i triple booted before with xp 64 on another drive but i dont have access right now
[22:40] <coopster> what's the ! bot command for Brazil?
[22:40] <coopster> !bz
[22:40] <Flannel> !br
[22:40] <Slart> !br
[22:40] <{^KinG^}> !mx
[22:40] <jurymast> anyone got semantik working on 8.04
[22:40] <nano_> Slart, Guiness book of records has lost its credibility....they have records for some of the stupidest things
[22:40] <nano_> its lame!!
[22:41] <coopster> !ot | Please guys
[22:42] <Industries> ntu
[22:42] <TuniX12> hmm
[22:42] <Industries> Hia ll!
[22:42] <Industries> *Hi all!
[22:42] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> I returned to my pure gnome...
[22:42] <clintchance> How do i install Real Media Player?
[22:42] <Industries> Is it possible to install (and boot) Ubuntu on my external USB HD on my Intel Mac mini?
[22:42] <clintchance> I cant find it
[22:42] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> kde sucks :\
[22:42] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> I guess its a matter of taste
[22:43] <Slart> clintchance: download it from their website.. I think it's an installer script or something
[22:43] <Slart> !real
[22:43] <clintchance> ok will try
[22:43] <Slart> clintchance: but I think there are other software available for playing realmedia too..
[22:43] <TuniX12> euh! RealPlayer still exist?,
[22:43] <Zaiden> one of my games only works if I type in sudo gamename in the terminal. Is there a way to create a launcher on the desktop that'll let me launch the game without using the terminal?
[22:43] <tj13820> how do i enable a driver for madwifi once i have installed the restricted modules in ubuntu server?
[22:43] <tj13820> (no gui)
[22:43] <Slart> TuniX12: yes.. we've tried everything.. fire, acid, garlic etc.. just won't go away =)
[22:43] <clintchance> slart, Wouldnet happen to know the software/?
[22:44] <Slart> clintchance: nah.. I just remember using something else instead of realplayer.. did you check the links?
[22:45] <Industries> Is it possible to install (and boot) Ubuntu on my external USB HD on my Intel Mac mini?
[22:45] <hagabaka> Zaiden: do you know why it requires sudo?
[22:45] <tj13820> how do i enable a driver for madwifi once i have installed the restricted modules in ubuntu server?
[22:45] <Industries> tj13820, isn't it already enabled?
[22:45] <lejon> tj13820, modprobe ath_pci
[22:45] <tj13820> Industries: no, my wireless card won't enable :-(
[22:45] <Industries> oh, ubuntu server..
[22:45] <Industries> I'm of no use, sorry.
[22:46] <Zaiden> hagabaka: My only guess is that the game was installed to the directory /usr/local/games/gamefolder
[22:46] <asmo[B]> ok so I did some fooling around with trying to get my NTFS partition to mount, google'd that shit and now instead of it failing to mount, it says I don't have permission....
[22:46] <tj13820> lejon: what does that do?
[22:46] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> is there a way to make the gnome x-chat display users on a sidebar
[22:46] <sanjayb> asmo[B]: err.. you using sudo ?
[22:46] <lejon> tj13820,  I dont know exactly, but as far as I know, it probes for the module called ath_pci and loads it
[22:46] <Slart> cary_jebus[UDCS|: I think it does
[22:46] <hagabaka> Zaiden: if that's the only reason you don't need to run it with sudo and shouldn't. just add the path of the program to your PATH
[22:47] <asmo[B]> sanjayb: yep :\
[22:47] <tj13820> well, it didn't make the interface load in /etc/network/interfaces
[22:47] <tj13820> that's what i need. the module is there, but i need it to start, and be usable
[22:47] <sanjayb> asmo[B]: whats the command you're using to mount?
[22:47] <tj13820> lejon: is that for atheros/dynex cards?
[22:47] <TuniX12> asmo[B]:  the last unmount from windows failed
[22:48] <lejon> tj13820, its for all modules in linux as far as I know :P
[22:48] <tj13820> lejon: uh... nope :-P
[22:48] <sanjayb> asmo[B]: ahh yes - silly me - what TuniX12 mentions is probably the case .
[22:48] <tj13820> lejon: didn't load :-)
[22:48] <TuniX12> ubuntu cant mount it unless yoy unmount it properly from windwos
[22:48] <asmo[B]> TuniX12: so if I can load up windows and properly unmount it it should work?
[22:49] <TuniX12> asmo[B]:  yes
[22:49] <asmo[B]> key word should :)
[22:49] <sanjayb> yes asmo[B] TuniX12, unless  you force mount - which is unadvisable for important drives :-)
[22:49] <sanjayb> asmo[B]: whats the exact error you're getting ?
[22:49] <asmo[B]> yes they're very important, 300gigs of music
[22:49] <TuniX12> asm DO NOT force mount
[22:49] <sanjayb> asmo[B]: if its from the gui, it generally tells you about the windows problem
[22:49] <sanjayb> asmo[B]: if it told you Permission Denied, that's a bit strange
[22:49] <sanjayb> yea do NOT force mount
[22:50] <asmo[B]> it says "you are not privileged to mount the volume"
[22:50] <TuniX12> asmo[B]: let windows unmount it
[22:50] <asmo[B]> ok :)
[22:50] <TuniX12> asmo[B]: it mean ntfs is marked in use
[22:50] <asmo[B]> Just have to get windows loaded on my laptop
[22:51] <sanjayb> TuniX12: err.. wouldn't it then have said 'ntfs marked in use' .. ?
[22:51] <TuniX12> asmo[B]: do a proper reboot from windwos
[22:51] <asmo[B]> TuniX12: thanks, I'll see if that works :)
[22:52] <tj13820> lejon: oh, my god... it worked
[22:52] <tj13820> lejon: :-) thank you. it needed a restart, but now it is loaded  as wifi0 and ath0
[22:52] <lejon> tj13820, Yeah I know, you got a atheros chipset?
[22:52] <tj13820> yup
[22:53] <tj13820> i ran an lspci to see if it was in
[22:53] <tj13820> and lsmod to make sure the module was working
[22:53] <asmo[B]> TuniX12: what do you use for IRC? I'm using X-Chat but not a fan of it... someone told me to get BitchX
[22:53] <lejon> tj13820, No problem, glad I could help ^^ I got a atheros chipset too and well, with madwifi compiled and then modprobe ath_pci and it worked
[22:53] <TuniX12> asmo[B]: i use chatzilla
[22:53] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> YOUR A BITCHX
[22:53] <asmo[B]> I don't have a BitchX
[22:54] <TuniX12> within firefox
[22:54] <Zaiden> How do you delete hidden folders and files in the trash as root?
[22:54] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> bitch :P
[22:54] <TuniX12> :D
[22:54] <asmo[B]> ya I've used chatzilla before
[22:54] <jessejazza> chatzilla: TunX12 try xchat-gnome
[22:54] <bderrly> Zaiden, with rm
[22:54] <IndyGunFreak> Zaiden: i always open a terminal, gksudo nautilus  then navigate to your trash folder and remove them.
[22:54] <TuniX12> i have it ;D
[22:54] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> xchat vs BITCHX
[22:54] <asmo[B]> jessejazza: I'm using xchat-gnome and hate it
[22:54] <LinuxMonkey> !Language
[22:54] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> Im gonig to try BITCHx just ofr the name
[22:54] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> :P
[22:55] <IndyGunFreak> asmo[B]: well try xchat.
[22:55] <LinuxMonkey> cary I DONT CARE
[22:55] <TuniX12> try pidgin
[22:55] <cary_jebus[UDCS|> pidgin sucks for irc
[22:55] <IndyGunFreak> pidgin is a horrid irc client
[22:55] <IndyGunFreak> pidgin is a great im client, it is not a good irc client
[22:55] <jessejazza> i liked chatzilla but boy was it slow when 6-10 channels were on. konversation is good IMHO
[22:55] <w3D> i tried making pidgin from the source for about an hour. then realised it was preinstalled with ubuntu
[22:55] <LinuxMonkey> Screen + irssi = BEST COMBO EVER
[22:55] <TuniX12> we talk about gnome clients
[22:55] <sanjayb> w3D: rofl
[22:56] <IndyGunFreak> w3D: lol.. its easy to install frmo source.
[22:56] <ajitam> Slart: I just wrote sudo iptables -F and as far as I can tell thing are looking up. Now I just need to keep my fingers cross
[22:56] <TuniX12> chatzilla use javascript
[22:56] <Sun01Tech> w3D: im glad im not alone in my going around in circles trend
[22:56] <asmo[B]> java eats ram
[22:56] <TuniX12> and firefox is slow
[22:56] <asmo[B]> like it's candy
[22:56] <sanjayb> asmo[B]: javascript != java
[22:56] <asmo[B]> true enough
[22:56] <TuniX12> the javascript engine of FF is a misery
[22:57] <TuniX12> webkit is the fastest one
[22:57] <TuniX12> and KHTML too
[22:58] <whabo> hello guys. why is my firefox browser keep crashing?
[22:58] <whabo> and firefox just closes by itself
[22:58] <Sun01Tech> i partition my disk with gparted and formated now im at the prepare partitions install window should i choose do not use this partition for the swap and just chose the ext3 part withno formatting ?
[22:58] <whabo> any idea? thx
[22:58] <IndyGunFreak> whabo: ff3 has had some issues..
[22:58] <LinuxMonkey> whabo: does it give you an error, what are you trying to fo when it crashes?
[22:58] <naxa> hi! when I press ctrl-alt-f1 the screen goes blank! this happens only when switching from X to text-only terminal. Why is this? I have (i think) an intel graphics card, built-in.
[22:58] <israel_> the website
[22:59] <whabo> well. i just open it browse the web for few secondfs and it closes by itself
[22:59] <israel_> madwifi.org is bad
[22:59] <israel_> somebody know !
[22:59] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: its just down right now.
[22:59] <Luigi> Hello everyone! Yesterday I reinstalled Ubuntu over an older, non-booting system, and every second time I turn on my computer I only see a black screen after the loading ŌĆ¬. where the login screen should be...). Is this a known problem?
[22:59] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: isn't madwifi in the repositories?
[22:59] <israel_> ok
[22:59] <lejon> IndyGunFreak, no, you have to add it urself
[22:59] <ghindo> Hi, I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 and my hibernate stopped working after I tried to resize my swap space.  Suspend still works, but I'd like Hibernate as well
[23:00] <IndyGunFreak> lejon: oh ok.. i thought it was in the repos for some reason
[23:00] <israel_> IndyGunFreak, give me the repositories polease
[23:00] <Sun01Tech> stuff to make a grown man cry in here
[23:00] <israel_> please
[23:00] <w3D_> ;)
[23:00] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: i might be mjistaken.. i thought it was there, according to lejon its not there
[23:00] <lejon> IndyGunFreak, or well, let me check, I think I had to download it manually from their homepage and such, so its probably not in the repos that I know of
[23:00] <israel_> ok
[23:00] <IndyGunFreak> !info madwifi-tools | israel_
[23:01] <Slart_> !upgrade
[23:01] <TuniX12> !help
[23:01] <lejon> its in the repos, I just didn't go that way :P
[23:01] <lejon> IndyGunFreak, israel_ its in the repos, I just didn't download it from there :P
[23:02] <jaggy> hey, how do i copy a folder and all his contents with my terminal?
[23:02] <lejon> jaggy, I know cp is the copy command, use cp --help or man cp to find out how you move a directory
[23:02] <Luigi> jaggy: cpdir, I think
[23:02] <sanjayb> jaggy: cp -R foldername/ dest/in/ation/
[23:02] <IndyGunFreak> lejon: me either to be truthful... madwifi requries a patch to work w/ my atheros device, so i just save the soruce and the patch w/ my backup, and implement it when i install the latest versiouns.
[23:02] <jaggy> ok, ty guys :)
[23:02] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: what atheros device do you have?
[23:02] <theFATMAN> i need a good format to format video converter, any suggestions?
[23:02] <lejon> IndyGunFreak, Sweet, I got atheros too :P
[23:03] <Luigi> Jaggy, don't listen to me, I'm wrong. I was thinking of rmdir
[23:03] <jaggy> hehe Luigi don't worry, sanjayb was right
[23:03] <Luigi> Ok.
[23:03] <w3D_> mario forgives you
[23:04] <israel_> IndyGunFreak,  i have a AR5212
[23:04] <israel_> atheros 5002
[23:04]  * IndyGunFreak has mario64 on Rom.. one of my all time fav games
[23:04] <aquo> Ich geh schlafen.
[23:04] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: ok.
[23:04] <lejon> !wine > w3D_
[23:05] <asmo[B]> How do I know if I have the essential packages installed?
[23:05] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: well, i can rapidshare you the madwifi source code if you want it.
[23:05] <lejon> asmo[B], sudo apt-get build-essential and it'll tell ya
[23:05] <theFATMAN> lol
[23:05] <w3D_> look at the synaptic packet manager
[23:05] <LtL> asmo[B]: dpkg -s build-essential
[23:05] <theFATMAN> i need a good format to format video converter, any suggestions?
[23:05] <israel_> ok
[23:06] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: its a slightly old version.. its not the newest version, from Nov. 07
[23:06] <asmo[B]> lejon: thanks :)
[23:07] <IndyGunFreak> israel_: i'm uploading it on rapidshare now, gimme a sec. and i'll giv eyou the link
[23:07] <lejon> asmo[B], No problem, LtLs command probably works too, I just haven't tested ^^
[23:07] <lejon> asmo[B], The command I gave you just tries to reinstall it and it tells you if you have the newest version or not if its already installed :P
[23:07] <LtL> lejon: either will do.
[23:08] <ubunix> ├ź├▒├▓├╝ ├░├│├▒├▒├¬├©├ź?
[23:08] <asmo[B]> ya it wasn't installed, is now, thanks to both of you
[23:08] <IndyGunFreak> israel_:  http://rapidshare.com/files/122483904/madwifi-ng-r2756-20071018.tar.gz.html
[23:08] <ubunix> hi guys
[23:08] <Sun01Tech> i get this error when the live ubuntu installer copying files to hard disk {errno 5} input/output error  ---- i have checked the cd and it was verified aready and the iso passed the hash test...this is a new sata hard drive..windows xp 64 installed working good in the past?
[23:08] <Luigi> Every other time I boot up my computer and Ubuntu loads, I get a black screen where the login screen should be. Is this a known problem, and is there any way I can easily identify the problem?
[23:09] <lejon> LtL, good, then ive learnt a new command for verify packages, thankies ^^
[23:09] <[T]ank> my new install attempt of ubuntu 8.04 takes me to the install menu and i select install. then it goes to a quick status bar then gloes blank. what can i do to make this work?
[23:09] <Sun01Tech> luigi: you probably should do a recovery bootup and try to the options there
[23:10] <[T]ank> 7.10 worked. debian i had to do a nofb option on the install. cant make anything with ubuntu 8 work
[23:10] <LtL> Sun01Tech: that's not a healthy error, i'd considered re-trying the install after you re-prepare the target free space and or partition.
[23:10] <IndyGunFreak> [T]ank: burn again, and burn SLOW...
[23:10] <ubunix> please may somebody help me? somebody know there to get drivers for nvidia network controller for ubuntu?
[23:10] <[T]ank> IndyGunFreak the install works on other machines
[23:10] <IndyGunFreak> [T]ank: or try the alternate install cd, but regardless, burn the cd SLOW
[23:10] <Luigi> Sun01Tech: you mean the recovery mode mentioned on the GRUB menu?
[23:10] <IndyGunFreak> [T]ank: then use the alt. install cd
[23:10] <X3non> Anyone with experience in dmraid and ntfs partitions?
[23:10] <[T]ank> sorry. did not include all the info. this is the alternate cd
[23:10] <Sun01Tech> Luigi: yeah
[23:10] <LtL> lejon: yah, dpkg -s where 's' = status is handy and informative.
[23:11] <Sun01Tech> LtL: this is my 6 time trying the install
[23:11] <Luigi> Sun01Tech: Ok then, I'll try that next time I boot. Thanks!
[23:11] <IndyGunFreak> Sun01Tech: you should be getting pretty good at it.. :)
[23:11] <LtL> Sun01Tech: something isn't right..
[23:11] <[T]ank> IndyGunFreak: how do i know for sure that I have the alternate cd?
[23:11] <[T]ank> because now i am second guessing myself
[23:11] <Sun01Tech> Luigi: you should try the repair packages and other option at the recovery console
[23:11] <IndyGunFreak> [T]ank: you probably don't
[23:12] <LtL> Sun01Tech: is the cd drive clean 'n healthy?
[23:12] <[T]ank> I remember checking the box on the download
[23:12] <IndyGunFreak> the alternate install cd, is a text based installer, it will have alternate-install in the iso filename
[23:12] <LtL> Sun01Tech: is the partition clean and healthy
[23:12] <[T]ank> i will just do it again.
[23:12] <IndyGunFreak> !alternate | [T]ank
[23:12] <lejon> LtL, Ive never used dpkg command that much, its handy to know ;)
[23:12] <ma1> how can i mount a .bin file ?
[23:13] <[T]ank> anyone know the fastest mirror for the us?
[23:13] <ma1> how can i convert a .bin to a .iso ?
[23:13] <TuniX12> ubunix: Try logging into a terminal and  sudo and type /sbin/lspci
[23:13] <theFATMAN> i need a good format to format video converter, any suggestions?
[23:13] <Luigi> Sun01Tech: repair packages?
[23:14] <LtL> ma1: chmod 755 file.bin and ./file.bin  to execute it.
[23:14] <Sun01Tech> LtL: that was what i was thinking...but i tried different cds and different partition....i tried booting up with puppy linux that works fine.....but yeah im thinking it might be the drive.....i wanted to install iso on usb drive and boot from there but
[23:14] <Sun01Tech> Luigi: it will be in the options when you boot to recovery
[23:14] <LtL> Sun01Tech: do you get a consistant i/o error?
[23:14] <Luigi> Oh, I see. Thank you, Sun01Tech, I'll be going now.

[23:15] <LtL> Sun01Tech: i'm using a junky pIII hp notebook and no ubuntu would install, i grabbed debian disk 1 iso and all rocked outa the box
[23:16] <LtL> i'm not diss'ing ubuntu, but it has its bugs
[23:16] <TuniX12> ubunix: you dont have the driver? or it is installed but does not work?
[23:16] <ma1> how can i convert a .bin file to iso ?
[23:16] <[T]ank> LtL: i am interested in the distro that does not have bugs. I would like to try it
[23:16] <LtL> ma1: why would you want to? im curious
[23:16] <luisdo22> imposible
[23:17] <crazedgremlin> you can put a .bin inside a .iso file
[23:17] <Sun01Tech> LtL: could it be the size of my sata drive 320gb i had no problem installing to my 160gb in the past
[23:17] <IndyGunFreak> Sun01Tech: i have a 500gig sata drive
[23:17] <X3non> Anyone with experience in dmraid and ntfs partitions?
[23:18] <LtL> Sun01Tech: one of mine is a 250gb sata, no problems using ubuntu since ubuntu version 1 whatever that was.
[23:18] <Sun01Tech> IndyGunFreak: im thinking its probably something wrong with the cd drive or the hard drive cause i tried various ubuntu versions and still having problems
[23:19] <LtL> Sun01Tech: size should'nt be an issue, i'd suggest booting a gparted cd and clean that drive up.
[23:19] <IndyGunFreak> Sun01Tech: what exactly is it doing?
[23:19] <luisdo22> why is this chat in english????...did i miss something
[23:19] <Zaiden> No matter what I do, these files in the trash won't delete.

[23:22] <cybertaur1> hello, can someone help me with a video problem?
[23:22] <LtL> Sun01Tech: i googled that and got quite a few hits, looks like a bug.
[23:22] <Sun01Tech> LtL: oh
[23:22] <cybertaur1> I'm trying to watch a video, and there are these flickering lines on the left side of the screen
[23:22] <cybertaur1> they're there (and moving) even when the video is paused
[23:22] <w3D_> what is a good torrent client for ubuntu? something similar to utorrent, but not azereus
[23:22] <stemount^> w3D_: transmission is god
[23:22] <stemount^> good*
[23:22] <cybertaur1> w3D_: you can use utorrent on ubuntu
[23:23] <gorg_> is there any sudo command for installing VLC player?
[23:23] <w3D_> really?
[23:23] <stemount^> gorg_: sudo apt-get install vlc
[23:23] <stemount^> w3D_: it's true
[23:23] <TuniX12> LtL: this is not a bug indeed

[23:23] <cybertaur1> w3D_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=191161

[23:23] <tlbs> if i don't use gnome or kde what benefits do i get from upgrading ubuntu to 8.04?
[23:23] <IndyGunFreak> Sun01Tech: very weird problem, sorry i have no solution... what type of media are you using
[23:24] <Slart_> tlbs: new kernel version? don't know if that's a benefit though
[23:24] <Sun01Tech> TuniX12: its not a bug?
[23:24] <tlbs> ya besides kernels...
[23:24] <Slart_> tlbs: and all the new packages that are not part of gnome
[23:24] <tlbs> Slart_: i do use a few gnome apps
[23:24] <TuniX12> Sun01Tech: this error means that the disk is damaged or the dribe lens is not working well
[23:24] <Slart_> tlbs: but I don't know of anything that is a "must have" in hardy
[23:25] <tlbs> Slart_: i'm just now upgrading to 7.1
[23:25] <Slart_> tlbs: I'm just upgrading from 7.10 to 8.04 on my home server
[23:25] <tlbs> Slart_: i usually stay a generation behind
[23:26] <Slart_> tlbs: sounds like a safe strategy
[23:26] <tlbs> I don't really care abhout all the lame eye candy
[23:26] <Sun01Tech> TuniX12: you mean the lens on the optical drive
[23:26] <tlbs> or "fisher-pricing" added for inexperienced users
[23:26] <tuxboy666> I went from 7.04 to 8.10. Upgrade was a nightmare. Fresh install might be better. It's pretty slekk and some of the new packages run better
[23:26] <tuxboy666> but driver issues are worse atm
[23:26] <Falling-Inferno> I have a problem after installing LAMP this morning i couldn't connect to the internet. I tried everything It said I was connected on My computer but when i logged onto the router on someone elses computer I didn't show up on the network. I thought because its not a cord or router problem (My other computer running Windows Is also using LAN Cable and is connected to the internet fine) Its a software problem. So does anyo
[23:26] <tlbs> tuxboy666: doid you go straight
[23:26] <TuniX12> Sun01Tech: yes
[23:26] <LtL> Sun01Tech: yah that what he means, is the cd drive clean
[23:26] <tlbs> tuxboy666: or intermediate upgrade
[23:26] <cybertaur1> are there any ubuntu video experts here? or anyone who knows anything about video on ubuntu?
[23:27] <tuxboy666> just did the tool in Feisty which got me Gutsy then immediately ran it again to upgrade to Hardy
[23:27] <ryanakca> How can I access the scrollback in GNU screen?
[23:27] <TuniX12> Sun01Tech:  or the disk is damages
[23:27] <tlbs> tuxboy666: oh ok
[23:27] <tlbs> i use apt-get from command line
[23:27] <rausb0> ryanakca: ctrl-a esc
[23:27] <Sun01Tech> LtL: i never cleaned it.....i think that is the problem...i guess i should buy one of those cd/dvd drive cleaners at best buy or radio shack....?
[23:27] <tlbs> i ahvea pretty barebones alternate install
[23:27] <Lichte> anyone know why tcltls requires tcl8.3 or 8.4 and not tcl8.5 ( which is what I have installed ) ??

[23:37] <cybertaur1> TuniX12: No, it only appears when I'm playing video, and only in the video box.  And I don't have this problem with Windows.  Also, in VLC, when I change the preferences to OpenGL output, the lines go away, but then there are other problems
