[13:57] <eidolon> LjL: honestly, i've been using X servers since Sun-2 days, i know the terminology, trust me on it :)  so when you say 'remote x server' and talking about 'xorg' - that doesn't make sense.  i'm installing xorg on my server machine so i can have a gui console on it.  anyway, this doesn't need to take up #ubuntu channel traffic :)
[13:57] <cua0> blakeg: lol i just did!

[13:58] <blakeg> viciouspotato: my best luck with nvidia and compiz has always been to remove ALL the restricted manager stuff, ALL the nvidia-glx* stuff and then download the nvidia drivers pkg from nvidia.com and install it that way
[13:58] <LjL> eidolon: but, which machine is the "remote" one obviously depends on the context. we were talking about installing KDE on your *local* machine (or at least so one would assume), so i called the possible other machine that ran X the "remote" one. "remote" is relative :)

I've tried purging all the packages, but to no avail.  I get a login prompt, login, see the toolbars and the wallpaper, and then all that's visible is the wallpaper.  mouse works, that's it.  any ideas, please, please?  oh - it's nvidia-glx-new under ubuntu, if it matters.

[14:01] <frederick85> The DRI drivers can not be installed without the latest kernel modules.

[14:03] <fUrious> so i have one dvd write and im booting on the livecd (have no os) and i want to burn a dvd iso file that i have. is there any way to do that?
[14:03] <LjL> cua0: using mv instead of cp.
[14:03] <ebirtaid> promised
[14:03] <fevel> ebirtaid: exactly
[14:03] <genii> fevel: mount the partition somewhere temporary. Copy all your /home stuff there with -p to preseve permissions. then edit the fstab to make /home the new place. then sudo mount -a
[14:03] <cua0> LjL: he asked how to 'move' it, not how to copy it.
[14:03] <ViciousPotato> blakeg: I'm currently in windows, so, continue on (as I scribble this down)

[14:05] <ViciousPotato> blakeg: m'kay, i'll give that a shot
[14:05] <sardiskan> I just installed a fresh copy of 7.10 on my Inspiron 6400 (ATI X1300). Everything was working fine until I enabled the restricted video drivers. I checked "Use" and it downloaded some stuff then requested a reboot. Upon reboot, nothing is on my desktop except the background. I can right click and get the context menu and create a folder and do whatever is in the context menu, but I can't do anything else.  Everything worked on 7.4
[14:06] <cua0> blakeg: doesn't nvidia provide them in a package?
[14:06] <blakeg> cua0: im running on fumes here with about 3 monsters worth of caffeine in my bloodstream and a box of chocolate cookies... ima tweaking!!!
[14:06] <MikeCamel> blakeg - I've done it before, but can't work out how to identify the card model number.  any ideas?
[14:06] <sardiskan> ATI sucks with restricted drivers jeroen
[14:06] <blakeg> cua0: well, yes and no
[14:06] <sardiskan> I have an ATI x1650 and it doesn't work at all with the fglrx drivers

[14:14] <modern> sup

[14:15] <keitherz_> can i install ttysnoop for ssh
[14:15] <Whitor> blakeg: joking
[14:15] <keitherz_> any tuts
[14:15] <blakeg> whitor: just making sure :)
[14:15] <cua0> keitherz_: probably.
[14:15] <GuHHH> hey
[14:15] <sardiskan> !fglrx
[14:15] <cua0> keitherz_: since ssh's still use tty's
[14:15] <blakeg> !nvidia
[14:15] <GuHHH> my ipw3945 just doesnt works on gutsy, any idea?
[14:15] <keitherz_> any guides
[14:15] <ubotu> The graphical user interface (GUI) in Ubuntu is composed of many elements, including the !X server, a window manager, and a desktop environment such as !GNOME or !KDE (which themselves use the !GTK and !Qt toolkits respectively)

[14:16] <MikeCamel> blakeg - just got and compiled the nvidia-supplied drivers.  exactly the same behaviour.  X comes up, login prompt, login, see toolbars briefly, then just the wallpaper.
[14:16] <cua0> keitherz_: sorry, i used ttysnoop once in 1998, can't help you with it now.
[14:16] <gary_inNYC> seriously, ask a doctor or banker or lawyer to edit xorg.conf about a mouse, look at their reaction, then rethink what else could be easier
[14:16] <genii> fevel: there are different ideas on the fs of a shared partition, many say vfat. But I prefer ext2/3 since there is a windows driver for it, it's native to linux, supports >4Gb files
[14:17] <genii> fevel: Also never needs defrag etc
[14:17] <Se1> Hi guys ! Does someone know how I could transfer pictures from/to my Ipod classic ?

[14:22] <MikeCamel> I suspect it's a layer/composite thing.

[14:22] <coldboot> Are there SMP kernel headers in Ubuntu?
[14:22] <MikeCamel> 1600x1200.  and it is running at that.
[14:22] <blakeg> oaky
[14:22] <coldboot> VMWare is telling me that the kernel headers I have are not for SMP...
[14:22] <crimsun_> coldboot: only in older Ubuntu releases  (most newer releases are SMP by default unless -386 is installed)
[14:22] <MikeCamel> what's really annoying is that I had it all working, for a few hours, and then an X restart killed it.
[14:22] <erUSUL> coldboot: 'sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)'
[14:22] <MikeCamel> or maybe a reboot - can't remember.
[14:23] <coldboot> erUSUL: I know the obvious.
[14:23] <Exilant> bulmer: i just want a german keyboard layout after startup, xmodmap is a bit of overkill
[14:23] <blakeg> mikecamel: prolly rebooted your computer..

[14:24] <John_R> sounds like you need to use sda instead
[14:24] <blakeg> mikecamel: look at this... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42568/
[14:24] <bloony> aah
[14:24] <bloony> ok
[14:24] <ebirtaid> fevel: gparted
[14:24] <cua0> bloony: sda
[14:24] <bloony> so just (sda) then?
[14:24] <Jeruvy> many times the kernel will see an IDE drive as a SCSI, it's all in the driver...
[14:24] <blakeg> mikecamel: pastebin your lspci also
[14:25] <John_R> sda0 or whatever
[14:25] <fevel> ebirtaid: I should boot from the gparted cd right?
[14:25] <rowdy> a person  I know got banned for some reason from this channel, how does he get unbanned
[14:25] <John_R> you need to give a partition designation
[14:25] <Obelix> Tach zusammen
[14:25] <MikeCamel> blakeg - you think I should try adding those changes?
[14:25] <baty> ppl need help, how can i change the video drivers in text mode?
[14:25] <ebirtaid> fevel: yes or you can unmount it and run gparted on it
[14:25] <blakeg> mikecamel: no, pastebin your LSPCI output first, then ill see what needs to be added
[14:25] <Hideme> When I click shutdown, my PC appears to power down, but then turns on again after 3 seconds. It's an IBM IntelliStation M Pro with Ubuntu 7.10, any idea why it does this?
[14:26] <blakeg> mikecamel: i dont think your video card is being configged correctly
[14:26] <MikeCamel> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42569/
[14:26] <bloony> so I set it to one of the partitions I set up in the partition sofware then.. ?
[14:26] <baty> ppl need help, how can i change the video drivers in text mode?
[14:26] <fevel> ebirtaid: one last thing...this partition was a vista one...it even has entries on grub. There is no easy way to do this right? I WILL have to edit grub and fstab
[14:26] <blakeg> mikecamel: this is not good... Device         "Generic Video Card"
[14:26] <GuHHH> hello! my wireless (ipw3945) is recognized and the module is loaded, but the system doesnt asks me for a password and it doesnt connect... im using gutsy, does anyone has any idea how to solve it?
[14:26] <anssi_> Any ideas why gmailfs fails. like here:
[14:26] <rowdy>  a person  I know got banned for some reason from this channel, how does he get unbanned, any idea how to do it
[14:27] <anssi_> root@syylaricity:/tmp# sudo mount.gmailfs none /tmp/gmailfs -o username=porttikivi@gmail.com,fsname=zOlRRa -p

[14:27] <ubotu> anssi_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[14:27] <ebirtaid> yea you are going to have to edit at the very least fstab, you would just have a non-working entry in grub if you dont edit your menu.lst
[14:27] <jatt> damn don't paste here
[14:27] <blakeg> mikecamel: it should say something like... nVidia Corporation GeForce 8400 GS.. which is what your LSPCI showed
[14:27] <bulmer> GuHHH-> do you get an ip address once you connect you?
[14:27] <GuHHH> it doesnt connect
[14:28] <blakeg> mikecamel: what version of the nvidia drivers did you install? 100.14.19?
[14:28] <bulmer> GuHHH-> respond with a nick please..or ill miss it
[14:28] <GuHHH> i guess its a problem with the wp2 key support
[14:28] <wildman> hello again, I've installed acroread (and associated pkgs) from medibuntu, whenever I run Adobe Reader 'alone' (that is from the menu entry inside Office section) I get the following message: "Unable to find the HTML rendering library (libgtkembedmoz).

[14:29] <bloony> cua0 or john_r: can I set it to sda? or does it have to be sda1 the root partition?
[14:29] <daniel29> Hello, I currently have a problem on by Gutsy Gibbon, problem I also had on dapper : my Ubuntu perfectly reads DVD, but no CD, whether audio or data. I was wondering if someone could help me.

[14:29] <Se1> I tried transferring photos by tripod pn my ipod, but it tells me "Failed to save /medai/IPOD/Photo Database". What should I do ?
[14:29] <Se1> "
[14:29] <John_R> sda1 should be the root partition
[14:29] <cua0> bloony: is there no graphical representation with a list of drives?
[14:30] <baty> and can anyone tell me wich is the name of the driver for a trident tgui9680
[14:30] <anssi_> Is anyone using gmailfs?
[14:30] <MikeCamel> blakeg: did have.  ;-)
[14:30] <wildman> baty, 'trident'
[14:30] <wildman> baty, ?
[14:30] <baty> ya its really old
[14:30] <cua0> bloony: but as John_R said, sda0 or sda1 will be your first drive
[14:30] <baty> check it on the list of drivers
[14:30] <wildman> baty, though GuHHH's suggested method may prove better
[14:30] <blakeg> mikecamel: hehe, did and do are two separate things... ive seen nothign but problems lately with the 8400's and linux :(
[14:30] <baty> ok will try

[14:36] <blakeg> mikecamel: still there?
[14:36] <Gringo_> does anyone know how to send a "read confirmation" in thunderbird after initially having clicked "cancel" on a new message
[14:36] <daniel29> This is rather strange. I have seen some reports in Launchpad on some DVD players not detected, but this does not seem to be the case.
[14:36] <MikeCamel> blakeg yup.
[14:36] <blakeg> mikecamel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42571/
[14:36] <cua0> Gringo_: try sending a new message begging for a response?
[14:36] <Gringo_> Thunderbird asks to send the confirmation once, immediately after clicking on a new mail
[14:37] <bulmer> Exilant-> look here /etc/console-tools/config
[14:37] <Symmetria> hrm, Im trying to get vncserver going, and when it tries to start the X server, it says it cant find font "fixed"
[14:37] <blakeg> mikecamel: paste that into your xorg.conf after making a backup and restart
[14:37] <Gringo_> if you click cancel, there is no option to send the confirmation any more
[14:37] <Symmetria> anyone got any ideas?
[14:37] <GuHHH> to use the rc.d files, i need to put S and K in the names or is it not needed?
[14:37] <Gringo_> cua0: no, i mean when you RECEIVE a mail that asks for reading confirmation
[14:37] <cua0> Gringo_: you denied sending the read receipt?
[14:37] <naiit> how can I start dbus?
[14:38] <kl4m> GuHHH: you can name your own files however you need if that's what you meant
[14:38] <GuHHH> kl4m: okay, thanks
[14:38] <daniel29> I thought of a hal-kind problem, but this lead to nothing, even an audio CD is not mounted
[14:39] <GuHHH> kl4m: and whats the difference if i use rc.local isntead? it will apply after login?
[14:39] <lemsx1> Vlet: ping

[14:39] <keitherz_> how to use ttysnoop
[14:39] <rmaj> is there an email client (GUI one) that allows to have different accounts (with seprate login, separate SMTP, and spearate inbox folder)?  so far only thunderbird seems (kmail have this function broken a bit, evolution seem to lack folders separation?)
[14:39] <MikeCamel> blakeg - just rebooting.
[14:39] <blakeg> mikecamel: that just means its the QWERTY layout :)
[14:39] <MikeCamel> fair.

[14:40] <daniel29> any idea anyone ?
[14:40] <GuHHH> genii: so whats the one who is executed after login? i cant remember
[14:40] <MikeCamel> of course.

[14:40] <ViciousPotato> Heh, good news and bad news.
[14:40] <blakeg> mikecamel: whew... i was hoping you were smart enough
[14:40] <ebirtaid> se1 what are you using to do it?
[14:40] <ViciousPotato> If I use my 17" monitor, the resolution is fine!

[14:41] <ebirtaid> never used it sorry
[14:41] <blakeg> vp: so, what i said to do worked?
[14:41] <Se1> cua0: yes' I have
[14:41] <genii> GuHHH: Depends. Can be in in .xinit .startx or in autostart method of the window manager (varies if gnome,kde, xfce etc)
[14:41] <HenriqueGogo> tnx, ubotu
[14:41] <Se1> ebirtaid: what are YOU using for this ?
[14:41] <ebirtaid> gtkpod
[14:41] <ViciousPotato> Well .. I confussed myself there, so I just unplugged my 22" monitor (I'm dualing a 22" and a 17") and just used the 17"
[14:41] <ViciousPotato> And I had no issues with that
[14:41] <Exilant> bulmer: thanks
[14:41] <ViciousPotato> From there, I'll install drivers, etc.
[14:42] <daniel29> When I try to mount my cdaudio, I get a no medium detected, while I have no problem with dvd
[14:42] <GuHHH> genii: independently of X... i mean hehe ;P
[14:42] <bulmer> no sweat
[14:42] <kandinski> I am about to upgrade from etch to gutsy, and I have a lot of backport and easybuntu packages< any advice?
[14:42] <cua0> ViciousPotato: this is what i had to do to get it to work on my 14" monitor. plug in the monitor that works, go to system > preferences > Screen resolution . change the resolution to one supported by the other monitor, hit apply, log out, log back in, .... profit!
[14:42] <ViciousPotato> Hehe.
[14:42] <ViciousPotato> Well, none of the resolutions were supported
[14:42] <cua0> and somewhere in there plug in the monitor that you want to use
[14:42] <kandinski> the update manager wants to update me to feisty
[14:42] <ViciousPotato> The only res available was 640 x 840 or whatever
[14:42] <cua0> ViciousPotato: you can change them
[14:42] <ViciousPotato> So I'm gonna install the nVidia drivers tomorrow
[14:42] <kandinski> but I have a slow network, I dont know that I want to do two upgrades in sequence
[14:42] <genii> GuHHH: If it's for console login then in .bashrc (or whatever shell resource file)
[14:43] <cua0> ViciousPotato: tomorrow?
[14:43] <blakeg> VP: grats on getting the monitor to work :)
[14:43] <kandinski> ViciousPotato: good luck, I couldnt make them work on amd_64
[14:43] <daniel29> I can't understand why it says no medium detected while my audio cd is ok there. I tried that same CD on my laptop and it went ok
[14:43] <ViciousPotato> cua0: Yeah, it's 23:43 in GMT +9
[14:43] <MikeCamel> blakeg - I've got that annoying "ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode" prompt.
[14:43] <ViciousPotato> blakeg: thanks :P
[14:43] <blakeg> mikecamel: so that didnt work.. argh!
[14:43] <blakeg> vp: NP :)
[14:44] <ViciousPotato> Anyway, night people!
[14:44] <cua0> blakeg: whats his issue?
[14:44] <dt06pe3> Hello! I have installed Ati's drivers for my Mobile X1600, and when I try to enable desktop effects in Ubuntu (which is compiz right?), it says that it cannot be enabled. How to fix this?
[14:44]  * rmaj lols on debian
[14:44] <daniel29> anyone already encountered that kind of problem ?
[14:44] <ViciousPotato> Thanks for all your help. :>
[14:44] <blakeg> mikecamel: so, 8400GS, nvidia 104.14.11 drivers installed, where to now?
[14:44] <cua0> dt06pe3: are you running fglx?
[14:44] <MikeCamel> indeed.
[14:44] <Boff-> Hi, I've just booted from the live CD (7.10) and just about as soon as I log in and get the desktop it logs out again without warning - anyone else had this?
[14:44] <blakeg> mikecamel: try completely blowing out your xorg.conf and running nvidia-xconfig again and make a new one
[14:45] <MikeCamel> hokay.
[14:45] <blakeg> mikecamel: then pastebin that guy at me please
[14:45] <dt06pe3> cua0: yep
[14:45] <freezey> how do i find out if i have libc.so.6
[14:45] <cua0> dt06pe3: and you have all the compiz stuff installed?
[14:45] <dt06pe3> cua0: but after reinstalling the drivers, fglrxinfo says Mesa instead of Ati...
[14:45] <vegpuff> i am not able to connect to wifi via ubuntu, all other windows laptops could connect to wifi, for some strange reason
[14:45] <vegpuff> any ideas?
[14:46] <dt06pe3> cua0: well, its part of the ubuntu distro, so I guess yes
[14:46] <blakeg> mikecamel: wait wait wait!! i just saw something
[14:46] <vegpuff> the ip, gateway, everything is fine
[14:46] <Ballena> what do I write in the Terminal if I want to see how much RAM I have?
[14:46] <vegpuff> i could even ping the router, but it is not internet
[14:46] <cua0> dt06pe3: i had to install it seperately in gutsy
[14:46] <dt06pe3> cua0: hmm, I'll check it out
[14:47] <cua0> dt06pe3: it shouldn't say mesa though
[14:47] <HenriqueGogo> please, I want a help: how I install files in my Plam by GNOME-PILOT? (I can syncronize my to do list and address.. but I dont know how I install *.prc or *.pdb br GNOME-PILOT)... please, some help!
[14:47] <freezey> HenriqueGogo: google it
[14:47] <dt06pe3> cua0: compiz is installed... and it said ati before, but after installing the official drivers it says mesa
[14:48] <cua0> dt06pe3: you need to select the ati card in system  > administration > screens and graphics
[14:48] <HenriqueGogo> freezey... I google it... but dont find nothing
[14:48] <MikeCamel> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42575/
[14:48] <blakeg> mikecamel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42574/    i had to fix something, i mistyped lines 61 and 62 in the old version
[14:48] <MikeCamel>  blakeg - it just gives me the evil "low-graphics mode" dialog, even this one from nvidia
[14:49] <cua0> dt06pe3: might not work with the official drivers, use the restricted drivers and fglrx and it will work
[14:49] <blakeg> mikecamel: okay, let me load that one up real quick
[14:49] <Se1> ebirtaid: I also use it for transferring songs, but you can't transfer pictures with gtkpod, can you ?
[14:49] <un_dave> how can i tell what drives i have installed in my system? even if i dont have them mounted?
[14:49] <Vegard1> dt06p3: it could be because you run xgl (which compiz uses), it will make fglrxinfo say Mesa, even though you run fgl. (This is according to a buddy, and I had the same thing happen.)
[14:49] <ebirtaid> I have used it for video, not sure about pics though
[14:49] <DShepherd> what program can i use to compress an ogg video?
[14:49] <ebirtaid> coverart shows up
[14:50] <DShepherd> un_dave, sudo fdisk -l

[14:52] <HenriqueGogo> please, I want a help: how I install files in my Plam by GNOME-PILOT? (I can syncronize my to do list and address.. but I dont know how I install *.prc or *.pdb br GNOME-PILOT)... please, some help! ... I didnt find in Google, so, I came here
[14:52] <ebirtaid> se1: http://www.gpixpod.org/wordpress/
[14:52] <ebirtaid> try that maybe?
[14:52] <ebirtaid> its in the repos
[14:52] <genii> DShepherd: Ah, didn't see you answered already in the scroll :)
[14:52] <wildman> cua0, I've finished by deinstalling acroread and all its related pkgs, I'll use Envince to read PDFs...
[14:53] <DShepherd> genii, no prob
[14:53] <cua0> wildman: sounds like a plan
[14:53] <cua0> hopefully that works better
[14:53] <wildman> that and the fact that X config is somewhat 'strange' iin Gutsy are the only 2 serious complains I have so far...
[14:53] <Se1> ebirtaid: thx, I tryied, but I didnt't manage to make it work
[14:53] <Se1> I'll try again
[14:53] <ebirtaid> :(
[14:53] <ebirtaid> k
[14:54] <Se1> ebirtaid: I think, the problem is that it doesn't work with the ipod calssic
[14:55] <un_dave> DShepherd: i have several drives with partitions named, sdb1, sdb2, sdc1, sdc2 ... etc. is there a way i can change those device names?
[14:55] <_INDIA> hello
[14:55] <bulmer> un_dave-> you can, man udev, or google for tutorial on udev
[14:55] <ebirtaid> oh you have an older gen one?  that is prolly it
[14:56] <ZenGeist> hi all
[14:56] <cua0> hrm
[14:56] <_INDIA> road tours of India
[14:56] <ml2k> anyone whove managed to install trac on ubuntu (from the repos)?
[14:56] <un_dave> bulmer: ok. is it tedious/complex? or just a simple single line ?
[14:56] <DShepherd> un_dave, i doubt it. I know you can have mount points with names you prefer but as far as i know.. no
[14:56] <blakeg> mikecamel: for some reason, its still not detecting your video card correctly, try downloading and installing the newest nvidia drivers for linux
[14:56] <mynyml> x
[14:56] <ZenGeist> how can I install compiz snow plugin in Ubuntu 7.10 ???
[14:56] <bulmer> un_dave->  man udev  i have not used it enuff to tell you
[14:56] <MikeCamel> blakeg - that's what I did at the start of the process.  these are the very latest ones.
[14:57] <un_dave> bulmer, DShepherd ta. sounds like a pain. i wont bother.
[14:57] <blakeg> mikecamel: the latest driver? 100.14.19?

[15:03] <Flynsarmy> Hi. i installed the 'Touchpad' application from add/remove programs - other but when i try to run it i get the error 'GSynaptics couldn't initialise. You have to set SHMConfig true in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics'. Neither of those words appear in xorg
[15:03] <blakeg>  /msg nickserv set unfiltered on
[15:03] <blakeg> ick
[15:03] <blakeg> that didnt work
[15:03] <Pergunta> what best ubuntu or kubuntu?
[15:03] <dgjones> !best | Pergunta
[15:03] <ubotu> Pergunta: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[15:03] <roachmmflhyr> Pergunta: i like ubuntu
[15:03] <brado> Pergunta, define best?
[15:04] <Vegard1> flynsarmy: same here, had to add that line under Options in xorg.conf.
[15:04] <brado> lol
[15:04] <Pergunta> and why?
[15:04] <Shrimpy_> hello, i was thinkink about upgrading my ram and i know the its a pc2100 (266mhz) but how do you tell if you can go higher?
[15:04] <roachmmflhyr> anyone experiencing slow boots?
[15:04] <blakeg> mikecamel: i tried to add you to my msn, but its not working for some reason..
[15:04] <roachmmflhyr> Shrimpy_: check the specs on your motherboard
[15:04] <brado> Shrimpy_, check websites for compatible ram for your mobo
[15:05] <Flynsarmy> Vegard1: What does it do? Could it do something that would stop my touchpad working? There are alot of dangerous things in ubuntu like changing graphics card and BOOM! all hell breaks loose
[15:05] <blakeg> mikecamel: i registered for my nick, so ill try pm'ing through here
[15:05] <MikeCamel> blakeg - yahoo?
[15:05] <roachmmflhyr> gutsy is so slow booting up
[15:05] <Shrimpy_> roachmmflhyr, brado, alrighty thanks
[15:05] <Vegard1> flynsarmy: no idea what it does, but it did make touchpad config start to work for me. could be some rpc interface that needs to be enabled.
[15:05] <dgjones> Pergunta, you would probably be better joining #ubuntu-offtopic and asking in that channel for general chat about which suits people, rather than here were it's support questions
[15:06] <alaa_> Hi all, i removed my desktop panel, and i want to restore it to its default state , so how can i do that? , Thank you.
[15:06] <MikeCamel>  blakeg - just authorised you.
[15:07] <vegpuff> is there any problem with gutsy and wireless internet?
[15:07] <cua0> wow
[15:07] <cua0> 2.99 for a redbull
[15:07] <wildman> bye ppl
[15:08] <Exilant> vegpuff: works here, however not on my girlfriend's computer
[15:08] <vegpuff> i am not able to access wifi from ubuntu, and it is *only* ubuntu, all windows,iphone can accesss
[15:08] <Exilant> so it's the usual problems with wirelenn
[15:08] <vegpuff> Exilant: it works fine with other equipments,
[15:08] <vegpuff> i get the proper ip,gateway,subnet mask, etc, etc
[15:08] <un_dave> another question: i'm setting up a raid... and about to create an lvm on it, so i can expand it down the line... but then i know there is ext3 expansion possible... so why do i need the lvm ?
[15:08] <Exilant> vegpuff: what card/driver?
[15:09] <jerbear> can someone describe to me the new option in the installer that allows you to encrypt the installation disk? currently my /home drive is encrypted, and i want to make sure they  will play nice
[15:09] <Bokeh> does anyone have a bit of knowledge about the recent issue with unionfs on nfs-mounted filesystems?
[15:09] <Bokeh> currently it's messing up my FAI install, according to some people it was fixed in the latest linux-image versions, but 2.6.22-14 still breaks here
[15:10] <vegpuff> Exilant: Intel(R) Pro wireless 3945ABG. It works fine in the other linux partition also(which i am using now)
[15:10] <un_dave> essentually, i can use "resize2fs /dev/md1" to resize my partition on my raid... so what do i need lvm for ?

[15:14] <minus> What gives best preformance? nvidia-glx-new or the ones from nVidia.com?
[15:14] <garu> hi hi everyone
[15:14] <tarzeau> minus: i use the nvidia.com ones
[15:15] <n2dar> hi nooby here,  i m trying burn ubuntu 7.10 with k3b but keep getting this error "CDrecord returned an unknown error (code 254)"...?
[15:15] <Nyle> tarzeau: my main man
[15:15] <jockepockee> Ich Kan Inte English
[15:15] <snowglobe> is there a way to repair a filesystem on a mounted volume?
[15:15] <Dr_Willis> minus  i hear the latest from nvidia.com - but not using them
[15:15] <minus> jockepockee, lär dig engelska ffs. newb
[15:15] <Nyle> snowglobe: not that I know of
[15:15] <snowglobe> hmmm
[15:15] <Nyle> snowglobe: you have to unmount it first
[15:15] <minus> Dr_Willis, ok
[15:15] <Mithrandir__> so did none of you have troubles installing gutsy?
[15:15] <snowglobe> nyle: it's the drive my OS is on :(
[15:16] <vegpuff> Mithrandir__: I had
[15:16] <Dr_Willis> Mithrandir__ ive had no troubles installing gutsy.
[15:16] <Nyle> snowglobe: looks like you want to restart in recovery mode and run fsck
[15:16] <arnath> hi, can lvm mirror or should i still use raid?
[15:16] <vegpuff> Mithrandir__: I didn't install ubuntu on a separate partition,i used wubi
[15:16] <Nyle> snowglobe: afaik the system should automatically do a fsck if it encoutnered a corrupted journal or something
[15:17] <Mithrandir__> vegpuff my cd won't load gutsy
[15:17] <snowglobe> you can unmount you / direcory?
[15:17] <vegpuff> Mithrandir__: CD? why not?
[15:17] <Nyle> snowglobe: why not boot from the ubuntu cd, and then run fsck on the hdd
[15:17] <snowglobe> nyle: it tries to, but some errors pop up. it starts a rescue shelll or something
[15:17] <tarzeau> Nyle: i packaged a new 3d game!
[15:17] <snowglobe> nyle, the CD has fsck?
[15:18] <Dr_Willis> I always keep a system rescue cd around for booting/fscking stuff  if needed. It boots a bit faster then the ubuntu livecd
[15:18] <Nyle> snowglobe: cd has the whole os
[15:18] <snowglobe> i know
[15:18] <Nyle> snowglobe: boot with it, and do fdisk -l
[15:18] <Nyle> look at the disk you want to scan
[15:18] <snowglobe> didn't know that fsck was included though
[15:18] <Nyle> and fsck.ext3 /dev/blah
[15:18] <tarzeau> Nyle: http://www.nevrax.org/tikiwiki/tiki-browse_gallery.php?galleryId=2
[15:18] <Nyle> tarzeau: cool
[15:18] <snowglobe> k, thanks!
[15:18] <Nyle> tarzeau: how old are you?
[15:19] <Mithrandir__> vegpuff seems to be the kernel problem... feisty worked perfect, but now after loading the kernel i get the abnormal exit error
[15:19] <Nyle> 50?
[15:19] <Nyle> tarzeau: nice graphics'
[15:19] <brado> is it possible to download an image of the 7.10 upgrade to update from?
[15:19] <tarzeau> Nyle: 29
[15:19] <Nyle> oh
[15:19] <Nyle> oh well then
[15:19] <Nyle> i'll be damned
[15:19] <tarzeau> Nyle: why?
[15:20] <Nyle> I thought you were a gramps
[15:20] <Nyle> :)
[15:20] <tarzeau> Nyle: your age?
[15:20] <dgjones> brado, you can update using the alternate cd
[15:20] <Nyle> 26
[15:20] <snowglobe> nyle: thanks for the help, i'll brb.
[15:20] <dgjones> !upgrade | brado
[15:20] <ubotu> brado: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[15:20] <tarzeau> Nyle: someone has to package all those great games, no?
[15:20] <Nyle> yes
[15:20] <Nyle> yes they do
[15:20] <brado> thanks
[15:20] <Nyle> tarzeau: I need to package something
[15:21] <tarzeau> Nyle: what?
[15:21] <Nyle> something that doesn't have too many outside deps
[15:21] <Nyle> I hate packaging the dependencies too
[15:21] <Mithrandir__> all i found was that there might be a bug with kernel 2.6.22
[15:21] <tarzeau> Nyle: it's seldom you need to package more than one package...
[15:21] <Nyle> I'm lazy + it takes time
[15:21] <tarzeau> Nyle: but it happens
[15:21] <Nyle> tarzeau: well, that was the case with SMC last time I tried
[15:22] <Nyle> in fact the maintainer of the package now is also the maintainer of the dependencies the game needs
[15:22] <Nyle> I'm not that commited right ow
[15:22] <Nyle> now*
[15:22] <thework1> ati drivers suck
[15:22] <[BR]Mike> yo yo yo
[15:22] <tarzeau> Nyle: i see, well start small :)
[15:22] <[BR]Mike> whats up
[15:23] <Nyle> tarzeau: I was thinking of something small
[15:23] <Nyle> like that game you play
[15:23] <CarlFK> Im messing with my xorg.conf - apparently if I screw it up, something tells x and I get this in xorg.0.log: (++) Using config file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf.failsafe"
[15:23] <octoberdan> By default should I have to run nm-applet as root? I'm writing a tutorial on e17+ubuntu and wnt to make nm-applet run in the startup script, but on my computer I need to gksudo or sudo nm-applet so that it will work.
[15:23] <Nyle> unless someone already got to it
[15:23] <tarzeau> Nyle: bub-n-bros.sf.net ?
[15:23] <Nyle> yes
[15:24] <tarzeau> Nyle: nobody got it! yes go go go!
[15:24] <principeb13> Br
[15:24] <Nyle> ok
[15:24] <octoberdan> Actually, I've changed my dbus policies so that I can run nm-applet as a user, but I need to know for this tutorial what is standard
[15:24] <CarlFK> once that happens, I can't get it to stop without rebooting.  what's the trick to get it to use my 'fixed' xorg.conf ?
[15:24] <Nyle> that means I'll have to install sid
[15:24] <lucky13> question: on 7.04 i used a low latency kernel when gaming, its not in 7.10, or at least with that name, anyone knows what happened to it, and or wich of the currently availible kernels give me best preformance while gaming
[15:24] <Shrimpy__> i just looked up info on my motherboard and it says 2x184 pin ddr dimm max 2.gb and ddr 333. (the last part does that mean 333mhz?)
[15:24] <Nyle> otherwise packages will be generated for lenny
[15:24] <tarzeau> Nyle: or a working pbuilder :)
[15:24] <Nyle> I wanted sid anyway
[15:25] <Nyle> but I need to learn ore about this pbuilder  you speak of
[15:25] <cua0> lucky13: what games?
[15:25] <lucky13> mostly counter-strike, so i need low latency and direct mouse movement, dont care about gfx tho, just steady play
[15:25] <Nyle> oh man wow man this tool kicks booty
[15:25] <Mithrandir__> @all nobody any idea how to install gutsy with another kernel than 2.6.22?
[15:26] <cua0> lucky13: source?
[15:26] <tarzeau> Nyle: it's not too hard
[15:26] <lucky13> no oldschool 1.6 via steam
[15:26] <tarzeau> Nyle: you first install it, then you put a .pbuilderrc , see www.linuks.mine.nu/pbuilder/ then read the file of the url
[15:26] <Nyle> tarzeau: no as in this tool kickas butt you know, like its good
[15:26] <Nyle> etc.
[15:26] <cua0> lucky13: there's a steam client for linux?
[15:26] <Nyle> tarzeau: that doesn't mean tis hard to use... its an expression
[15:26] <tarzeau> cua0: no
[15:26] <lucky13> cua0 there is wine :D
[15:26] <cua0> oh, ew
[15:26] <TuxCrafter> hello everybody, why are the liberation fonts not included with ubuntu gutsy?
[15:27] <tarzeau> Nyle: i prefer a full sid system :)
[15:27] <Nyle> tarzeau: which is why I said, I wanted sid anyway
[15:27] <tarzeau> TuxCrafter: why is the www.linuks.mine.nu/atari/ font not in ubuntu yet?
[15:27] <Nyle> tarzeau: pay attention! :/
[15:27] <tarzeau> Nyle: oh :)
[15:27] <Nyle> i'll hurt you :)
[15:27] <Mithrandir__> :-((
[15:27] <lucky13> cua0: but ye i would like a real light kernel wich reacts fasts while giving all out steady preformance
[15:28] <John_R> hhaha
[15:28] <principeb13> _jaL vc é
[15:28] <arnath> is /tmp cleaned on reboot?
[15:28] <tarzeau> arnath: yes
[15:28] <Nyle>  tarzeau so what you doin in here?
[15:28] <genii> lucky13: Look for -rt kernel (real-time)
[15:28] <tarzeau> arnath: on boot, to be exact
[15:28] <cua0> lucky13: sorry, i don't know of such a beast. i was just intrigued by your question.
[15:28] <TuxCrafter> Terrasque: because its unstable and in testing?
[15:28] <John_R> lucky: i would like a kernel that actually runs at speed on an amd k6 processor
[15:28] <Nyle> tarzeau: you are a buntu gusty user?
[15:28] <Nyle> ubutnu
[15:28] <arnath> tarzeau: so if i dont back up files in /tmp, that's ok?
[15:28] <Nyle> i give up
[15:28] <principeb13> Nyle quero  fala com vc
[15:28] <tarzeau> Nyle: no, not when it broke on my sparc testing my www.linuks.mine.nu/ubuntu/ scripts
[15:28] <principeb13> em português
[15:28] <tarzeau> arnath: yes
[15:29] <Nyle> no habla non-engles
[15:29] <cua0> principeb13: #ubuntu-es
[15:29] <lucky13> genii thnx :D .. i have been playing since 1999 and have just switched for linux for a year, kinda addicted to the game, hence the need of wine :P
[15:29] <dgjones> !pt | principeb13
[15:29] <ubotu> principeb13: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado.
[15:29] <arnath> tarzeau: is there something else that doesnt need to be preserved (keeping in mind that the system may some day need to be transported as a whole to another computer)
[15:29] <kl4m> arnath: Having any significant file in /tmp would be crazy. This folder is emptied at each reboot
[15:29] <tarzeau> arnath: /proc
[15:29] <tarzeau> kl4m: unless configured to be not emptied
[15:29] <VilasBoas> hy my ubuntu doesn't monte my external hd does anyone knows why?
[15:29] <kl4m> tarzeau: huh huh but who does that
[15:29] <Nyle> tarzeau: btw, ubuntu gusty is the only ubunti that hasn't made me angry
[15:29] <cylinc> who
[15:30] <nanonyme> arnath, /var/tmp is not cleaned on reboot
[15:30] <Nyle> tarzeau: this one actually works!
[15:30] <arnath> tarzeau: ok thank you
[15:30] <[BR]Mike> VIlasNpas; speak pt-br
[15:30]  * Mithrandir__ cannot install gutsy :-(
[15:30] <tarzeau> Nyle: i still don't like gnome, nor kde
[15:30] <genii> !info rtlinux
[15:30] <ubotu> rtlinux: Real-Time-Linux, a POSIX-compatible hard realtime operating system.. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 3.1pre3-3 (gutsy), package size 1171 kB, installed size 5040 kB (Only available for i386)
[15:30] <arnath> nanonyme: ye, i knew that, i just wasn't sure about the /tmp :p
[15:30] <Nyle> tarzeau: tis not the interface, tis the rest of the system
[15:30] <nanonyme> arnath, on some systems /tmp is ramfs
[15:30] <tarzeau> Nyle: but i burned me an i386 and amd64 iso set to show to some windows people
[15:30] <tarzeau> Nyle: apt-get? indeed :)
[15:30] <nanonyme> you should expect it's wiped
[15:31] <Nyle> tarzeau: one time feisty told me that I needed to add contrib non-free to its sources.list ;)
[15:31] <elvirolo> is compiz fusion slow for anyone ?
[15:31] <arnath> nanonyme: define "some"?
[15:31] <lucky13> genii: found it in synaptec, installing it now, will run great again on my pc, thnx :D
[15:31] <[BR]Mike> Can anyone tell me if Postfix + Ubuntu server woks fine?
[15:31] <cua0> elvirolo: some people, depending on hardware and which drivers they are using
[15:31] <lakin> what's the best way to get gnome to add my ssh-keys to the ssh-agent that's running by default in 7.10? IE, I'd like it to ask me about adding those keys when I login each time (such that they work from the terminal too)
[15:31] <Nyle> tarzeau: I have sid on my laptop, and buntu gusty here
[15:31] <Nyle> on desktop
[15:32] <octoberdan> So, by default 7.10+, does a user need to be root to run nm-applet without policy problems?
[15:32] <Mithrandir__> ok
[15:32] <spiekey> hello!
[15:32] <Mithrandir__> no answers here...
[15:32] <elvirolo> cua0: i see ... are there any solutions?
[15:32] <nanonyme> arnath, the systems on which it has been seen wise to do so
[15:32] <Mithrandir__> :-[
[15:32] <nanonyme> arnath, quite a few solaris servers do it, i think
[15:33] <cua0> elvirolo: depends what the problem is, if it's hardware = buy new hardware. if it's wrong drivers = install better drivers.
[15:33] <arnath> nanonyme: i'm just using ubuntu 7.10 server
[15:33] <spiekey> when i try to install Feisty Fawn from CD i get:
[15:33] <Lawke> Hello, i'm running Ubuntu on my Dell laptop, and it works super! But there always comes a beep when I press the back button if there is no text.. how can I turn this off?

[15:34] <spiekey> any idea?
[15:34] <spiekey> i have a Scaleo Pa2505
[15:34] <elvirolo> cua0: well... beryl used to work fine on my laptop so it can't be a hardware problem ... the driver i use is i810
[15:34] <Symmetria> ugh anyone know off hand how I tell vncserver to start a window manager
[15:34] <Symmetria> since it starts but it doesnt fire up a window manager
[15:34] <Lawke> Hello, i'm running Ubuntu on my Dell laptop, and it works super! But there always comes a beep when I press the back button if there is no text.. how can I turn this off?
[15:35] <cua0> elvirolo: i haven't noticed it to be slow on my machine at all. *shrug*
[15:35] <[CroX]> So, Gnome just froze on me. Any way I can resolve this without having to shut it down and lose all changes I've done in Geany and other editors?
[15:35] <John_R> Lawke: you should be able to turn off system sounds in the preferences-sounds dialog
[15:35] <n2dar> hi nooby here, i m trying burn ubuntu 7.10 with k3b but keep getting this error "CDrecord returned an unknown error (code 254)"...?
[15:35] <[CroX]> I'm in a tty now, with Gnome still running. Allthough it's frozen. I can move the pointer but can't interact with anything.
[15:35] <spiekey> Lawke: maybe check out: http://www.online-tutorials.net/system/bash-beep-ton-abschalten/tutorials-t-74-261.html

[15:43] <vukuheart> its not lettine me
[15:43] <John_R> its sort of like regedit in winders
[15:44] <nastypinata> you can't get vlc off the package manager?
[15:44] <vegananarchist> it says mount point /mnt/cdrom does not exsist
[15:44] <bmt2> hello to all
[15:44] <vukuheart> hold on
[15:44] <cua0> bmt2: hi

[15:44] <chamitomax> que alguien me de bola
[15:44] <bmt2> i was wondering if there is a video editing program out there that I can apt-get install ?

[15:45] <cua0> bmt2: working on giving myself high blood pressure.
[15:45] <vegananarchist> cua0:it says mount point /mnt/cdrom does not exsist
[15:45] <nastypinata> vukuheart, open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install vlc
[15:45] <bmt2> cua0: how in the world are you doin that ?
[15:45] <cua0> vegananarchist: that's probably why it's not working in the gui
[15:45] <Lawke> when I press the backspace button my screen goes a little greyish
[15:45] <xerfas> hi
[15:45] <vegananarchist> how can i fix it?
[15:45] <Lawke> Don't know if that helps
[15:45] <cua0> bmt2: trying to answer questions in here, and mainlining redbulls
[15:45] <John_R> ah
[15:45] <John_R> lawke: easy answer
[15:46] <bmt2> cua0: yep that will do it
[15:46] <cua0> vegananarchist: find the one that works and make a new alias
[15:46] <John_R> double click the volume control
[15:46] <vukuheart> ok
[15:46] <vukuheart> back
[15:46] <elvirolo> cua0: hum my card doesn't seem to be supported
[15:46] <John_R> then mute pc speaker
[15:46] <peepsalot> vegananarchist, try /media/cdrom
[15:46] <xerfas> how can i tell firefox not to load plugins under /usr/lib ?
[15:46] <vukuheart> now what do i do to get vlc for linux?
[15:46] <vegananarchist> like cdrom1 cdrom2 ?
[15:46] <kl4m> Did anybody notice that rm -r is horrily slow when there is a lot of symbolic links?
[15:46] <nastypinata> vukuheart: open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install vlc
[15:46] <vukuheart> kk
[15:46] <bmt2> cua0: too may redbulls make my eyes cross.....whatever happened to that drink called Jolt ? !
[15:46] <vukuheart> hold
[15:46] <vegananarchist> ok
[15:46] <Lawke> hey thx
[15:46] <Lawke> its gone
[15:46] <Lawke> :D
[15:46] <nastypinata> mmm jolt
[15:46] <peepsalot> vegananarchist, or create some new directory for it yourself.   cd /media; sudo mkdir newDirectoryName
[15:46] <cua0> elvirolo: sweet, that's dumb.. stupid linux! um, try googling for unsupported drivers or workarounds for your card?
[15:46] <leptest> hey, is there a official channel for wubi?
[15:46] <nastypinata> part of the reason i have a heart condition
[15:46] <bmt2> i love Jolt....can't find it in stroes
[15:46] <bmt2> stores
[15:47] <John_R> hee hee
[15:47] <dinda> Need help with Network Manager: error message on startup reads:  Network Manager applet cannot locate some required resources and cannot continue.  :(
[15:47] <John_R> and we were trying to get all jiggy with it
[15:47] <vukuheart> ugh
[15:47] <John_R> but the answer was right i front of us the whole time
[15:47] <vukuheart> it keeps asking for a password
[15:47] <vukuheart> T_T
[15:47] <nastypinata> it's your root password
[15:47] <cua0> vegananarchist: it'll be something like /dev/hdc
[15:47] <peepsalot> vegananarchist, removable drives usually get mounted somewhere under /media in Ubuntu.  doesn't really matter where you put them, but that's the convention
[15:47] <vegananarchist> Peepsalot: mount: block device dev/hdc is write protected, mounting read only. Mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[15:47] <cua0> peepsalot: you missed the question
[15:47] <nastypinata> same one you use to do anything
[15:48] <blizzkid> how can I format a harddisk partition as cd?
[15:48] <vukuheart> root password as in to log onto linux or just root?
[15:48] <nastypinata> root password
[15:48] <peepsalot> cua0, O RLY?
[15:48] <cua0> peepsalot: aparently not, nvm
[15:48] <kl4m> blizzkid: the file system on a cd is iso9660 . It's usually read-only
[15:48] <cua0> peepsalot: as i said, i'm buzzing on redbulls trying to follow too many convos at once
[15:48] <nastypinata> i don't even mess with totem, just use vlc
[15:48] <peepsalot> cua0, np
[15:49] <vegananarchist> cua0: when i used media/cdrom mount: block device dev/hdc is write protected, mounting read only. Mount: you must specify the filesystem type
[15:49] <blizzkid> kl4m, I need to format a partition as cd to burn an iso to the partition
[15:49] <Lawke> John_R, well the beeping is gone, but it seems I do not have sound at all then...
[15:49] <peepsalot> vegananarchist, man mount
[15:49] <nastypinata> if you have to use totem vuku, you can get the xine backend through the add/remove applications feature
[15:49] <TwoD> Anywone who knows why I get "ReadExact: Socket error while reading" when trying to connect to my Ubuntu Gutsy box from Windows tightvnc?
[15:49] <vegananarchist> peepsalot: what?
[15:49] <cua0> vegananarchist: peepsalot's on the right track, listen to him
[15:49] <cua0> vegananarchist: from $ type 'man mount'
[15:49] <kl4m> blizzkid: Why would you need to do that? You sure?
[15:49] <vukuheart> T_T
[15:49] <vukuheart> its still not working
[15:49] <nastypinata> what's not working?
[15:50] <blizzkid> kl4m, in order to be able to boot it from grub
[15:50] <vegananarchist> then what?
[15:50] <leptest> anyone know of a wubi irc channel?
[15:50] <nastypinata> did you install vlc?
[15:50] <peepsalot> vegananarchist, then you read
[15:50] <vukuheart> no
[15:50] <vignesh> hey
[15:50] <vukuheart> i cant
[15:50] <cua0> leptest: #wubi ?
[15:50] <vukuheart> T_T
[15:50] <vukuheart> brb
[15:50] <nastypinata> what happens when you try?
[15:50] <leptest> cua0, checked it :(
[15:50] <cua0> leptest: no idea then, sorry.
[15:50] <SNy> blizzkid: Huh? To be able to boot from grub?
[15:50] <leptest> ok fair enough :P
[15:50] <kl4m> blizzkid: You could boot it from grub even if it was another filesystem that a cd filesystem(iso960), such as ext2
[15:50] <nastypinata> hey, i'm having a brain fart, where's the syslog hiding?
[15:51] <vignesh> i get the following error when i run ./configure. checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[15:51] <SNy> You can just boot ext2/ext3 instead.
[15:51] <blizzkid> SNy, to be able to boot the iso from grub
[15:51] <Lawke> John_R, any ideas?
[15:51] <VilasBoas> hy my ubuntu doesn't monte my external hd does anyone knows why?
[15:51] <vignesh> what package do I need to install ?
[15:51] <cua0> vignesh: are you root?
[15:51] <blizzkid> kl4m, yes, but I need to be able to boot the iso without burning it to a dvd
[15:51] <vignesh> ./configure doesn`t need root perms
[15:51] <gorski> Amarok Error: Cannot talk to klauncher!
[15:51] <sanguisdex> hi there, I just installed gutsy, and I cant send emails from thunderbird or evolution.  where can I look fior this problem
[15:51] <vignesh> it does not work as root as well
[15:51] <cua0> vignesh: no, but your gcc might be f*cked
[15:51] <vignesh> fresh install
[15:52] <cua0> vignesh: got gcc installed?
[15:52] <vignesh> yeah
[15:52] <vegananarchist> peepsalot: i'm trying to save a paper and i don't have much time, can i get a hint?
[15:52] <gorski> Amarok Error: Cannot talk to klauncher! Somebody help?
[15:52] <peepsalot> sanguisdex, you suure you configured your clients correctly fir the outgoing server?
[15:52] <blizzkid> kl4m, like described in http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/booting-of-raw-iso-from-grublilo-though-preferably-grub-367901/#post2931546
[15:52] <kl4m> blizzkid, SNy: or maybe it needs chainloader stuff to get the boot sector. ok I'll read that to see
[15:52] <folial_> Hi! Help needed to fix a network trouble: I installed Ubuntu7.04 and I was using ndiswrapper, instead of bugged module 'sis190', for a motherboard-integrated ethernet NIC. Interface was called wlan0, but it worked. After dist-ugrade to Ubuntu7.10, networking is working on only in my local network, connection can't be routed to internet by my ADSL router, can't resolv anything... also if /etc/network/interfaces, ifconfig, r
[15:52] <folial_> oute, resolv.conf... all seems ok. Any hints, please?????
[15:52] <sanguisdex> peepsalot:  more then once to be sure, and w/ more then one smtp server
[15:52] <cua0> vignesh: i'd check the dependancies for gcc g++ and all the other compilers
[15:52] <peepsalot> vegananarchist, honestly i don't have the mount command syntax memorized, i'd have to read the man pages, in which case it's probably more efficient for you to read them yourself
[15:53] <bloony> Still strugling with the installation of mbr.. can anyone help me?
[15:53] <nastypinata> MBR on a dell?
[15:53] <sanguisdex> vegananarchist: mount --help is pretty clear
[15:53] <folial_> what more should I check in my host configuration?
[15:53] <sanguisdex> and briefe
[15:53] <cua0> peepsalot: don'tcha love holding grownups hands?
[15:53] <vegananarchist> peepsalot: ok thanks, if i have any more questions i will ask
[15:53] <edugonch> hello, does somebody know why mi network config does not work after use vpnc, I'm using ubuntu 7.10
[15:53] <bloony> no fujitsu siemens
[15:53] <SNy> blizzkid: You could try just dd-ing it onto a harddrive (use at own risk, of course).
[15:53] <SNy> I am not sure that will work, though.
[15:54] <bloony> nastypinata: I deletede the windows partition and I need to install the mbr again, but I cant manage to do it..
[15:54] <peepsalot> sanguisdex, any particular error message you are getting?
[15:54] <blizzkid> SNy, there has to be a way to format the partition as iso9660, as described in these instructions
[15:54] <blizzkid> dd-ing doesn't sound comfortable
[15:54] <John_R> bloony: if you are trying to do it from windows
[15:54] <John_R> boot with the install cd
[15:54] <John_R> then fdisk /MBR

[16:03] <knifepoint> no its a very wierd problem i downgraded to <IP_ADDRESS> but that didnt solve the problem
[16:03] <stefg> netstv: read about the boot options dealing with apic and routeirq
[16:03] <Bokeh> what is your problem exactly vukuheart?

[16:05] <vegananarchist> i did *sudo mount -o /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0* and i got *Mount: block device /dev/hdc is write protected, mounting read only. Mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.*
[16:05] <vukuheart> ok
[16:05] <cua0> bengl: hmm, well, when i unchecked the option under advanced display options it made my wndow borders go byebye too, so i re-checked the option and voila they are back again
[16:05] <vukuheart> new terminal open
[16:05] <Bokeh> ok, can you try typing sudo bash
[16:05] <Bokeh> and put in the password of the user you are running as now
[16:06] <vukuheart> it asks for password which password do i use?
[16:06] <vukuheart> ok
[16:06] <vukuheart> it wont let me enter it
[16:06] <stefg> vegananarchist: who told you that syntax ?
[16:06] <CarlFK> vegananarchist: sudo mount /dev/hdc /media/cdrom0
[16:06] <shnops> гы) ни чё не понять, пойду тогда отсюдова)
[16:06] <Bokeh> what error message does it give vuku?
[16:06] <kl4m> vukuheart: it doesnt echo input but it takes it anyway
[16:06] <xep_> re les gens
[16:06] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: -o requires an argument
[16:06] <CarlFK> vegananarchist: it should figure out what -Options to use
[16:06] <ebirtaid> vukuheart: did you set a root password?
[16:06] <nastypinata> vuku: when you type the PW in the terminal, it's not going to show you anything
[16:06] <vukuheart> im not to sure
[16:06] <nastypinata> just punch it in and hope you're right
[16:07] <Bonster> lol
[16:07] <vukuheart> im a total tard when it comes to linux
[16:07] <cua0> vukuheart: you dont get asterisks or anything
[16:07] <ebirtaid> then you probably didnt
[16:07] <nastypinata> <3 cua0
[16:07] <cua0> vukuheart: just blankness until you hit enter and you're either right or wrong
[16:07] <vukuheart> yes
[16:07] <vukuheart> thats it
[16:07] <Bonster> sad
[16:07] <nastypinata> he could just try the add/remove applications side
[16:07] <ebirtaid> tsktsk
[16:07] <ebirtaid> yea
[16:07] <ebirtaid> that might be easiest
[16:07] <cua0> vukuheart: ok so now you can go do everything we told you to do as root
[16:07] <ebirtaid> is vlc in the list?
[16:07] <Bokeh> are you absolutely sure you password is correct vuku?
[16:08] <vukuheart> yes
[16:08] <vegananarchist> when i use the one you gave me just now, it gives me *mount: block device /dev/hdc is write protected, mounting read only. Mount: you must specifiy file system type.*
[16:08] <vukuheart> but
[16:08] <vukuheart> to make sure how DO i set a root password?
[16:08] <vukuheart> T_T
[16:08] <ebirtaid> vegan: what fs is it?
[16:08] <cua0> vukuheart: don't
[16:08] <nastypinata> it's set from the original install
[16:08] <Bokeh> you can set a root password by running "sudo passwd"
[16:08] <Bokeh> if you want to
[16:08] <riotkittie> I'm trying to change my logon screen. I can select a new theme but it reverts to the default as soon as I close the window. This happens regardless of the GDM theme I choose, be it preinstalled, or one added later. Anyone have any ideas?
[16:08] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: are you actually mounting a CDROM?
[16:08] <cua0> Bokeh: that's a bad idea, for him
[16:08] <ebirtaid> agreed
[16:08] <Bokeh> it is
[16:09] <vukuheart> T_T
[16:09] <cua0> riotkittie: you're clicking 'apply' before you close?
[16:09] <Bokeh> but i'm not going to tell him "no, you can't have that info because you're not ready for it"
[16:09] <vegananarchist> i'm trying to mount the disk so i can write to it.
[16:09] <cua0> Bokeh: well atleast give him some kind of advisory warning
[16:09] <vegananarchist> i don't know what fs it is
[16:09] <Bokeh> true

[16:09] <vukuheart> this is ticking me off
[16:09] <vukuheart> i cant stand linux
[16:09] <cua0> vukuheart: it tickles
[16:09] <ebirtaid> then use windows?
[16:09] <nastypinata> tsk tsk
[16:10] <vukuheart> i cant
[16:10] <Bokeh> vukuheart: can you try changing your own password, just to make sure you have the correct password
[16:10] <ebirtaid> well then
[16:10] <L0GAN> is there a way that ubuntu after initially boot from CD, boots the rest from HDD or USB? (Like Dyne:Bolic does)
[16:10] <Bokeh> not that we don't trust you, just to debug the problem :)
[16:10] <nastypinata> vuku: it's not the end of the world and there IS a learning curve to this
[16:10] <stefg> !install | L0GAN
[16:10] <ubotu> L0GAN: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[16:10] <stuart_> Hi, can anyone tell me how to get rid of the keyring in 710. Distro is brilliant but keyring driving me mad! Thanks
[16:10] <geeenius> hi came across
[16:10] <cua0> stuart_: keyring?
[16:11] <L0GAN> stefg not install (ie partition, dual boot etc.)
[16:11] <Profanephobia> is there any facial recognition software available for ubuntu
[16:11] <riotkittie> cua0: there's no apply to hit.
[16:11] <Profanephobia> i.e. like veriface
[16:11] <vukuheart> im not typiong random crap tho
[16:11] <vegananarchist> gordonjcp: i'm trying to mount the disk so i can write to it.
[16:11] <stuart_> cua0, when i start laptop. wifi pwd. have to unlock 20 times then sometimes freezes
[16:11] <stefg> L0GAN: so? you mean booting an .iso image?
[16:11] <cua0> vukuheart: "i hate linux" and "linux hates me" quantifies as 'random crap'
[16:11] <L0GAN> the dyne:bolic just copy some files from cd to hdd or usb and it offers to continue the boot from hdd
[16:11] <riotkittie> stefg: errr isnt that bug just about colour?
[16:11] <vukuheart> wel ugh
[16:12] <vukuheart> im sorry im completely new to this
[16:12] <f0rgeIf`> Anyone who could recommend a good ftp server for ubuntu?
[16:12] <vukuheart> 2nd day on linux
[16:12] <Bokeh> proftpd or ws-ftp
[16:12] <cua0> f0rgeIf`: ftpd
[16:12] <ebirtaid> perhaps you should read up on ubuntu and linux then?
[16:12] <pike_> f0rgeIf`: i like vsftpd but typically these days i just use ssh and scp or sftp
[16:12] <vukuheart> when i fel like it later
[16:12] <vukuheart> ill just do this later
[16:12] <Bokeh> vsftpd even :D
[16:12] <L0GAN> stefg: http://dynebolic.org/manual/x181.htm explains it
[16:12] <Dr_Willis> i agree - once ya learn to use ssh - why bother with ftp. :)
[16:12] <stefg> riotkittie: it's about a broken /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default script that causes that
[16:12] <ebirtaid> would you try to take out your kidney without looking at at least a  diagram first?
[16:12] <cua0> vukuheart: best advice, find man pages, read them. all of them.
[16:12] <Bokeh> sorry, my brain disconnected there for a second
[16:12] <genii> f0rgeIf`: vsftp or proftp
[16:13] <bengl> AH solved my problem, there was nothing under "Command" in Window Decoration in ccsm
[16:13] <vukuheart> so just learn all about ubuntu? then come back?
[16:13] <chriss_croozer> hello can anoybody tell me what i should do if i've just wrote a kernel patch for ubuntu ?
[16:13] <bloony> ok.. asking again.. I've deleted the windows partition and now grub wont boot ubuntu.. getting "error 15" .. I also get this msg when I do "find /boot/grub/stage1" in the grub interface..
[16:13] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: what actually is it though?
[16:13] <pike_> vukuheart: what file system are you trying to mount?
[16:13] <nastypinata> vuku: there are some basics you gotta understand
[16:13] <pike_> vukuheart: ntfs?
[16:13] <chriss_croozer> i want to load it up somewhere
[16:13] <nastypinata> pike: he's noot trying to mount anything
[16:13] <cua0> bengl: what'd you end up putting/
[16:13] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: if it's an NTFS disk, you can't really write to it
[16:13] <vegananarchist> I really need help, i have less than an hour to get my paper out of the computer that it is currenlty in. I just updated to xubuntu 7.10 and now the cd drives nor the usb ports will mount and it will not connect to the internet. I need one of these three things to get working so i can get my paper off the computer.
[16:13] <stefg> L0GAN: oh, you mean a persistant /home and stuff like that. possible, but lame
[16:13] <nastypinata> he's just trying to install vlc and is having issues because he doesn't remember his root pw
[16:14] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: ok, what *exactly* are you trying to do?
[16:14] <L0GAN> not persistant
[16:14] <nastypinata> vegan: when in doubt, do you have a copy of knoppix somewhere?
[16:14] <bengl> cua0: emerald --replace
[16:14] <stefg> vegananarchist: boot with the old feisty kernel
[16:14]  * riotkittie ponders copying things over from the other gutsy install, where everything works fine.
[16:14] <brado> yeah go the livecd
[16:14] <vegananarchist> right now i'm trying to get the cd rom drive to work so i can burn a disk with my paper on it
[16:14] <L0GAN> stefg persistant stores only settings (like 'nesting' in Dynebolic) and I havent gotten it to work even
[16:14] <shearn89> hey all - does anyone know a way to autologin on a server install (ie, no GDM)? I've tried a bunch of howtos all showing the same method, and none work in Gutsy.
[16:14] <brado> hmm :/
[16:15] <vukuheart> the only reason i went with ubuntu is cause i couldnt find laptops drivers for sound and everything else
[16:15] <cua0> bengl: thanks, you helped me as well by discovering that.
[16:15] <vegananarchist> but when i put in a cd, it does not mount.
[16:15] <bengl> cua0: though you can logically deduce that gtk-window-decorator --replace would work as well
[16:15] <cua0> bengl: saved me some hunting anyways :)
[16:15] <brado> vegananarchist, boot from it?
[16:15] <stefg> L0GAN: there's several howtos on that on the net. But if you need persistant settings, why not just install ? :-)
[16:15] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: why are you trying to mount the CD if you want to burn stuff to it?
[16:15] <vegananarchist> from a live cd?
[16:15] <Bokeh> ok, vuku, did you remember changing anything to the file /etc/sudoers ?
[16:15] <NotLarry> ok, I just did a fresh install of the new ubuntu on a lappy, did a software install of sshd, what do I do to get it to let me in?  (I am running between this office and the one the lappy is plugged into)?
[16:15] <Profanephobia> is there any facial recognition software available for ubuntu
[16:15] <sacater> nox-Hand: test
[16:15] <vukuheart> i think it best to completely understand windows then come to linux
[16:15] <Bokeh> meh
[16:15] <Bokeh> you don't need to
[16:15] <gordonjcp> vukuheart: why?
[16:15] <L0GAN> stefg I tried them all and it didnt work, no settings appeared to be remembered for me
[16:15] <nastypinata> bokeh: i doubt it
[16:15] <Bokeh> actually, it's detrimental
[16:15] <chriss_croozer>  exit
[16:16] <vegananarchist> gordonjcp: becasue the cd rom drive is not showing up when i try to burn to disk
[16:16] <ubunt1> anyone know , how to change locale in ubuntu? I want to set cp1251
[16:16] <nox-Hand> sacater: Gotcha
[16:16] <ebirtaid> indeed
[16:16] <sacater> can anyone see this message?
[16:16] <Bokeh> people will get forced into old habits

[16:16] <nox-Hand> sacater: meet me in ##on-topic
[16:16] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: then you have some other problem

[16:16] <ebirtaid> tryingt o break habits moving from one os to another is a problem
[16:16] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: you can't mount a blank cd
[16:16] <f0rgeIf`> pike_,  you there?
[16:16] <vukuheart> cause its to much of a botehr to get used to linux right now
[16:16] <bloony> I've deleted the windows partition and now grub wont boot ubuntu.. getting "error 15" .. I also get this msg when I do "find /boot/grub/stage1" in the grub interface.. when installing I've tried to set it to install bootloader to hd0, sda and sda1 (since I got a scsi disk)
[16:16] <NotLarry> I also pointed nmap at the box and all the ports ar4e filtered
[16:16] <vukuheart> to much crap goinbg on around my life to get to know an OS before getting a new job
[16:16] <vegananarchist> gordonjcp: ok, how should i go about getting stuff off this computer
[16:17] <L0GAN> stefg: docking just continues booting the live cd from a faster medium, the CD is only used as boot
[16:17] <ebirtaid> do you need to know linux for your job?
[16:17] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: have you got a USB drive?
[16:17] <vukuheart> which one OS or NEW JOB is better?
[16:17] <vegananarchist> gordonjcp: yes
[16:17] <stefg> bloony: your menu.lst points to teh wrong partition Now tht the win-part is gone, all numbers are one down
[16:17] <John_R> bloony: have you tried sda0
[16:17] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: stick it on that, then
[16:17] <ebirtaid> you are the one on IRC so the answer is obvious ;p
[16:17] <azembler_> How could i get the glslideshow screensaver to show the images i want?
[16:17] <vukuheart> ??? wait what?
[16:17] <vegananarchist> gordonjcp: but the usb drives are not mounting either when i put in the pen drive
[16:17] <shearn89> hey all - does anyone know a way to autologin on a server install (ie, no GDM)? I've tried a bunch of howtos all showing the same method, and none work in Gutsy.
[16:17] <vukuheart> hold on
[16:17] <ebirtaid> you're not out getting a job so learning the OS must be more important
[16:18] <stefg> L0GAN: ubuntu has a different focus. it's no Live CD distro
[16:18] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: hmm
[16:18] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: stick the USB drive in and at a terminal type "dmesg"
[16:18] <bloony> John_r: hum.. no..
[16:18] <Dr_Willis> shearn89 you want it to auto login to the shell basicially?
[16:18] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: see if it mentions anything about SCSI disks, or "/dev/sd<something>"
[16:18] <L0GAN> stefg i kinda liked the thing you could take your OS with you to other PC's
[16:19] <peepsalot> does anyone else have this problem in gutsy, using rhythmbox to listen to internet radio, the song title will not automatically update.  I have to restart the stream every time I want to update it
[16:19] <cblack0> I did an upgrade with do-release-upgrade and it got interrupted. Now my system doesn't fully boot up (no xdm, no ssh daemon, etc). I tried to rerun do-release-upgrade but it failed. Is there a way to force rerunning of whatever scripts should be run to get my system in a working state?
[16:19] <shearn89> Dr_Willis: yeah, i've already got it to autostart my X session, i just can't login automatically...
[16:19] <stefg> L0GAN: get a 2 GB usb stick and install xubuntu or a 4GB for full blown ubuntu
[16:19] <bloony> stefg: but I deleted every partition..
[16:19] <bloony> but how can I check what my hd realy is?
[16:19] <bloony> if its sda or hda?
[16:19] <f0rgeIf`> How do I extract .bz2 files?
[16:19] <kl4m> shearn89, Dr_Willis. I'm interested in this also. I don't want to have to login on local shells anymore on the servers.
[16:19] <stefg> bloony: so you deleted the whole disk and ask yourself why you can't boot ????
[16:19] <nastypinata> lshw
[16:20] <peepsalot> bloony, sudo fdisk -l ?
[16:20] <riotkittie> you deleted every partition?! and are trying to boot?
[16:20] <ebirtaid> stefg lol
[16:20] <riotkittie> the mind. it boggles.
[16:20] <vegananarchist> gordonjcp: i don't see anything for scsi disks, but i got errors for hdc
[16:20] <cblack0> f0rgeIf`, tar jxf file.bz2
[16:20] <bloony> stefg: yes but as I said I installed unbutu.. making new partitions ofcourse..
[16:20] <benkong2> if i want to remove ubuntu-desktop now that I have kubuntu install will apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop do it?
[16:20] <shearn89> kl4m: I'm running a server install with openbox, and i don't want to have to log in each time i start - takes too long...
[16:20] <ebirtaid> benkon:  check psychocats.net
[16:20] <ebirtaid> there is a howto for removing gnome
[16:21] <bloony> peepsalot: thx
[16:21] <benkong2> ebirtaid: ok thank
[16:21] <L0GAN> stefg I tried those but my pc wont allow me to boot from usb stick. Maybe an bios upgrade might fix that but it costs 30$ for an upgrade, almost as much as a new board
[16:21] <vegananarchist> gordonjcp: i have a copy of DSL laying around, should i go through dsl and grab the files i need>
[16:21] <stefg> bloony: i guess the partition delete left a mess and your partition table is broken. Would it be reasonable to just reinstall, starting with a /real/ blank disk ?
[16:21] <shearn89> kl4m: Dr_Willis I've tried editing /etc/event.d/tty1, but it fails to start properly if i add in "-n -1 /usr/bin/autologin"
[16:21] <ebirtaid> vegan thatmight be quicker
[16:22] <vegananarchist> does anyone know dsl pretty well, i'm still learning it?
[16:22] <stefg> L0GAN: you can still try sbm, or a boot floppy
[16:22] <frojnd> hello there
[16:22] <kl4m> #dsl
[16:22] <Dr_Willis> shearn89 sounds like to me you are doing a lot of busy work to avoid gdm, or entering your password. :) you could just spawn the X session from rc.local
[16:22] <stefg> !sbm | L0GAN
[16:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sbm - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[16:22] <bloony> stefg: but thats what Ive done.. and it still doesnt work
[16:22] <nastypinata> vegan: do you have a knoppix live cd anywhere?  if so, it should mount your USB drive and let you copy your files over.  that should take care of you for the short term
[16:23] <nastypinata> i know, mortal sin advising another distro to help out...
[16:23] <truggl> anyone here have any experience with tablet pcs?
[16:23] <stefg> bloony: what kind of machine is that?
[16:23] <bloony> stefg I deleted all the partitions and made new ones and installed ubuntu aain but didnt work..
[16:23] <vegananarchist> i don't have knoppix, i have damn small linux
[16:23] <shearn89> Dr_Willis: would that work? just put startx in rc.local? I avoid gdm, as it has a whole load of gnome dependencies, and I want to see how quickly I can get from cold to desktop....
[16:23] <Dr_Willis> DSL and the "System Rescue Live CD" are must haves in a PC toolbox. :)
[16:23] <bloony> stefg: fujitsu siemens c1320d laptop
[16:23] <frojnd> How can I disable alt + left mouse ??  When  I do this I move entire window, no mather where I click. If I press alt + left click I move window. WHere can I disable this. It's annying when u use inkscape...
[16:23] <kl4m> shearn89: Dr_Willis Theres that. I could start a bare X Session with a root terminal. Any quick configuration for this
[16:23] <L0GAN> stefg i'm hopeless. dont have a floppy drive atm :(
[16:23] <DeFirence> lo all, i get SIOCADDRT: File exists
[16:24] <Dr_Willis> shearn89 you  will need to start the X session as the proper user. (with sudo perhaps)    Why worry about boot times.. when you can have 5+months of uptimes.. :)
[16:24] <nastypinata> has anyone figured out a way to get .wma files to work in Amarok?  i'm on 7.10, but i can't find a xine backend package that has wma support :(
[16:24] <bloony> stefg: but Im gonna try to install again using sda0... Ive tried sda and sda1.. didt know there was a sda0.. do you think that will do it?
[16:24] <shearn89> Dr_Willis: my laptop has no battery life left (10mins tops), so i have to shutdown/reboot a lot...
[16:24] <cblack0> nastypinata, have you installed restricted format support?
[16:25] <stefg> bloony: are you on live CD now?
[16:25] <archangel_> ehy guys, how do i add an account to samba via command line ?
[16:25] <cblack0> nastypinata, I have no first-hand experience w/ wma files, that is just where I would start
[16:25] <bloony> stefg: yes
[16:25] <albech> is there a way to set a mount point on a sshfs mount?
[16:25] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ you can set an existing accunts samba password with sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME
[16:25] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ that may let you make new ones also. Never tried that.
[16:25] <nastypinata> cblack: oh!  good call!  what's the package called?
[16:26] <archangel_> Dr_Willis, when i try that it says " can not find user"
[16:26] <stefg> bloony: has your bios some 'antivirus' protection that might prevent the harddisk bootsector to be overwritten ?
[16:26] <bloony> stefg: hum.. that might be?
[16:26] <albech> bloony: you still struggle with that MBR?
[16:26] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ as i said. It may only work for users you have allready added with adduser.
[16:26] <bloony> albech: yupp...
[16:26] <bloony> :p
[16:26] <stefg> bloony: so are you ready to completly blank the hd?
[16:27] <archangel_> Dr_Willis, sudo smbadduser ?
[16:27] <archangel_> Dr_Willis, or simply adduser ?
[16:27] <albech> bloony: well stefg is the man to help you..
[16:27] <nastypinata> <3 cblack, i can't believe i didn't think of that
[16:27] <cblack0> nastypinata, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[16:27] <vegananarchist> who knows DSL very well
[16:27] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ you need to be root to add a new user. since its a major system type task. :)
[16:27] <gordonjcp> vegananarchist: type "mount" and pastebin the result
[16:27] <nastypinata> cblack: yeah, i just found it.
[16:27] <bloony> stefg: yupp it is blanked out.. Ive deleted the partitions and installed like 5 times now :p
[16:27] <archangel_> Dr_Willis, sudo adduser <user name> : then smbpasswd -a pass ?
[16:28] <idzied> hi, i have a trouble with a bttv module and would like to uninstall/remove it from startup because my PC hangs up since I installed that module
[16:28] <Dr_Willis> archangel_  you must tell smbpasswd the username also. :)
[16:28] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ but thats close.
[16:28] <bloony> albech: yupp seems like it :)
[16:28] <stefg> bloony: get a terminal and run sudo fdisk -l . paste the result to !pastebin
[16:28] <stefg> !paste | bloony
[16:28] <ubotu> bloony: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[16:28] <bloony> kk
[16:28] <archangel_> Dr_Willis, sudo adduser <user name> : then smbpasswd -a <username pass> pass ?
[16:28] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ smbpaswd asks for the password i belive. Try it and see
[16:29] <archangel_> Dr_Willis,  i get failed to modify error
[16:29] <shearn89> Dr_Willis: kl4m: I think i've found my problem - i was using a "1
[16:29] <bloony> stefg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/42590/
[16:29] <stefg> k
[16:29] <vegananarchist> I'm on another computer not the one with problems
[16:29] <cblack0> nastypinata, cool, good luck. keep in mind you probably have to restart whatever media player you are using to get it to find the new codecs
[16:29] <shearn89> Dr_Willis: kl4m: sorry. A "1" instead of an "L"...
[16:29] <vegananarchist> how can i access the hard drive through dsl
[16:30] <cblack0> I did an upgrade with do-release-upgrade and it got interrupted. Now my system doesn't fully boot up (no xdm, no ssh daemon, etc). I tried to rerun do-release-upgrade but it failed. Is there a way to force rerunning of whatever scripts should be run to get my system in a working state?

[16:34] <bloony> stefg: hum.. now nothing happens when I double click the install icon on the desktop.. is there a way to start it from a terminal?
[16:34] <stefg> bloony: my idea is to make a separate /boot partition on the very beginning of the drive, to get out of possibly bios problems
[16:34] <stefg> bloony: run sudo ubiquity

[16:38] <stefg> bloony: for a while.... don't know

[16:39] <cblack0> archangel_, you could use nfs to share directories between two unix machines

[16:41] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ i find the  'samba fuse' tool darn handy.
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> !find fuse
[16:41] <ubotu> Found: fuse-utils, libfuse-dev, libfuse2, linux-image-2.6.22-14-386, linux-image-2.6.22-14-generic (and 22 others)
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> !find smbfuse
[16:41] <ubotu> Package/file smbfuse does not exist in gutsy
[16:41] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ if i can rember its package name..
[16:41] <stefg> !info fusesmb
[16:41] <ubotu> fusesmb: filesystem client based on the SMB file transfer protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.6-1 (gutsy), package size 29 kB, installed size 140 kB
[16:41] <Exilant> qwerty121: sounds bad, maybe a network problem?
[16:41] <Flynsarmy> Someone was saying their ubuntu installation was freezing at 82% the other day aswell
[16:42]  * Dr_Willis wishes the FUSE guys would all get togheer and name things the same way. :) its fusesmb. but its sshfs for the sshfuse stuff. :)
[16:42] <qwerty121> Exilant: but i enabled network access
[16:42] <qwerty121> exilant, any way out?
[16:42] <archangel_> Dr_Willis,  this will make networking eaiser ?
[16:42] <cua0> ok i'm bored with helping you guys. im going elsewhere. i'll be back another time. cya later kiddies
[16:43] <Flynsarmy> qwerty121: Have you tried installing it with network access disabled? For me it waited a while then commented out all the source lines and completed
[16:43] <FluxD> how do u make wget show the download speed?
[16:43] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ with it my whole windows 'network' shows up in one directory (i name it Network)  - so i do the command  'fusesmb Network' at login to set it up. you MUST add the users to the fuse group beforhand. and  make a .smb/ config for them
[16:43] <stefg> Dr_willis , that's Linux. No OS for sissies who require consistent naming... only heros can survey the chaos
[16:43] <Bryan> anyone?
[16:44] <qwerty121> Flynsarmy: no, dint try that. what can i do now?
[16:44] <archangel_> Dr_Willis, i want to network two linux computer. 2 7.10 ubuntu fresh installs with data drives as slaves.
[16:44] <qwerty121> Flynsarmy: should I wait for some more time?
[16:44] <Flynsarmy> qwerty121: Start it again i suppose. Make sure you don't have an internet connection. It'll leave all the source lines in sources.lst commented and you go in after it's done and uncommment them manually.
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ for 2 linux machines - you dont need samba at all. You can easially use the  'sshfs' tool
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> !info sshfs
[16:45] <ubotu> sshfs: filesystem client based on SSH File Transfer Protocol. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7-2.1 (gutsy), package size 34 kB, installed size 120 kB
[16:45] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ or use nfs, or  proberly other ways
[16:45] <Lin> hi there. My firefox and epiphany are both failing to launch with Bus Error (core dump) returning signal FPE (float point exception), im running FF <IP_ADDRESS> and epiphany 2.20.0, on ubuntu gutsy with latest updates. Im not using any third party repository that conflicts with these packages (right now just bongo, and AWN). strace shows me where it is SEGFAULTing.  Epiphany after read /usr/lib/firefox/components/libgklayout.so and mmap the lib @0xb57ba000, a
[16:45] <Lin> nd firefox after a clone opearion. Any tips are welcome.
[16:46] <archangel_> Dr_Willis,  url to read on how to mount remote drive as local so can access it ?
[16:46] <stefg> archangel_: sshfs is faster and mor convinient than samba. If it's Linux to Linux, rather use that over fat samba or NFS client server solutions
[16:46] <Lin> archangel_ what is the remote FS?
[16:46] <archangel_> they are both the same
[16:47] <xep_> hello,
[16:47] <archangel_> what ever ubuntu formats under
[16:47] <riotkittie> errr.
[16:47] <xep_> where is stored the config for iptables
[16:47] <xep_> is there a /etc/ ... file for iptables ?
[16:47] <Lin> archangel_: install openssh-server on both computers then use this on nautilus ssh://computer_ip
[16:47] <archangel_> i simply want access to the folder //netname/folder/disk
[16:47] <archangel_> i want to be able to play the media files on the remote computer.
[16:47] <Lin> archangel_: i gave the solution to you already.
[16:48] <vagios54> einai kaneis ellinas edw?? thelw voithia.....
[16:48] <Dr_Willis> archangel_ the sshfs way - lets all apps see the remote boc. The ssh:// thing is mainly for just transfering files around. so it depends on what you want to do
[16:48] <atlfalcons866> how do i use ext4
[16:48] <atlfalcons866> !ext4
[16:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ext4 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[16:48] <archangel_> Dr_Willis,    i want to be able to play the media files on the remote computer.
[16:48] <Lin> dr_willis ssh server isn't intalled by dfault on ubuntu.
[16:49] <Lin> archangel_ are you playing dumb? I already gave the solution for you
[16:49] <archangel_> lin, sure you said to install openssh-server on both machines
[16:49] <Lin> archangel_: install openssh-server on both computers THEN use this on nautilus ssh://computer_ip
[16:49] <archangel_> lin, and that i have done already is how i get back and forth, but i do not want to have to transfer files to play the media, i want to play it via the network.
[16:50] <bloony> stefg: still in here?
[16:50] <DeFirence> if i want to bind a server to an ip and <IP_ADDRESS> is there a way to make another interface, that i can bind it to and then bind that interface to the ip and <IP_ADDRESS>?
[16:50] <Bryan> Hi, I need some help. My problem is that every time I suspend my inspiron 1520, my WIFI drivers go out. Anyone got any solutions? I"m on 7.10
[16:50] <stefg> bloony: yep
[16:50] <Lin> archangel_ ok.. user connect servers tool to do it.
[16:50] <bloony> stefg: sweet.. no errors on the cd..
[16:50] <Lin> archangel_ not user, use.
[16:50] <bloony> stefg: Ive started the install now..
[16:50] <[SMiTTY]> <- just installed a fresh build of 7.10 :) Woot!
[16:50] <stefg> bloony: ok, but make sure to manually partition the disk.
[16:51] <Lin> archangel_: after this in your openfile widget your remote host will appear.
[16:51] <bloony> yup
[16:51] <atlfalcons866> how do i change ext3 back to ext2
[16:51] <Lin> archangel_ just browse to it. BTW remember, you cannot access it from terminal, just gnome environment
[16:51] <Lin> atlfalcons866: just mount it as ext2
[16:51] <Dr_Willis> atlfalcons866 why do you need to? it should be backwards compatiable
[16:51] <archangel_> lin, um, whats a widget? and where is it located. i've never played with a widget
[16:51] <atlfalcons866> Lin: how
[16:52] <ksk1> did anyone have issues with tzdata and util-linux breaking during the upgrade process? i have 60 updates that won't install because these programs return errors while trying to upgrade
[16:52] <stefg> bloony: you'll want some 128-256 MB primary partitions first, used for /boot, then around 10 G for / , as sda1 and sda2
[16:52] <sakis_ser> hi all! could anybody help me providing information about installation issues on a Flybook A33i?? Please pm me!
[16:52] <Lin> archangel_ when you press: Open file, a openfile "window"  will appear right?
[16:52] <atlfalcons866> Dr_willis i found my dads old laptop and it has an early debian release in it
[16:52] <angenoir> o
[16:52] <Lin> atlfalcons866: mount -t ext2 /dev/XYX /whatever
[16:52] <Dr_Willis> atlfalcons866 if a ext3 filesystem tries to get mounted as ext2. it will work
[16:52] <bloony> stefg: ok ext3 filesys on both right_
[16:53] <bloony> ?
[16:53] <Dr_Willis> atlfalcons866 thats a neat feature of ext3
[16:53] <archangel_> lin, this assumes i'm running gnome ?
[16:53] <Dr_Willis> Backwards compatiablityt
[16:53] <Lin> archangel_: sure I am.
[16:53] <stefg> bloony: right. you could use ext2 for /boot, journalling doesn't help much there
[16:53] <bloony> k
[16:53] <ubunt1> how to add , change locales in ubuntu?
[16:54] <DeFirence> if i want to bind a server to an ip address and <IP_ADDRESS> at the same time, is there a way to make another interface, that i can bind it to and then bind that interface to the ip and <IP_ADDRESS>?
[16:54] <Lin> archangel_: if dont. I really cannot help thee. cause I never seen KDE on my life, since version 0.2
[16:54] <bloony> will it help to have more than 256 for the boot?
[16:54] <Dr_Willis> !kubuntu
[16:54] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE
[16:54] <bloony> stefg: or does it matter?
[16:54] <Lin> ubunt1: synaptic, search for your country files, install it. In logon screen (GDM) choose a new language
[16:54] <archangel_> i don't see a place to press open file, maybe i'm too stupid to network with linux
[16:54] <stefg> bloony: not really. an average kernel needs around 7-10 MB ... so you don't need more
[16:54] <Lin> archangel_: when you open totem you will choose (OPEN FILE)
[16:55] <bloony> kk
[16:55] <archangel_> oh yea, your tlakign about a media player, ok, i'm with you
[16:55] <Lin> archangel_ btw if you ALREADY has ssh://yourcomputer you can just double click on your movies.
[16:56] <Lin> archangel_: this should just work (tm)
[16:56] <stefg> bloony: then have a logical partition as swap. use around RAM-size + 1.5 (that'll be sda5). then the rest is for /home (sda6)
[16:56] <Dr_Willis> it may download then play. not play off the remote.. havent tried the ssh:/ stuff lately
[16:56] <aguiar> someone for WINE
[16:56] <bloony> stefg: so now I got 256mb: sda1  /boot ext3 ; 20gb sda2 / ; and a 1500gb swap
[16:56] <atlfalcons866> is there a gnome 3
[16:56] <PriceChild> atlfalcons866, no
[16:56] <Lin> atlfalcons866: not yet..
[16:57] <Lin> dr_willis AFAIK it works
[16:57] <stefg> bloony: you're not going to need that much for / (root) 10G is enough. and use RAM * 1.5 for swap
[16:58] <bloony> yupp
[16:58] <stefg> so swap is sda5, use the rest for sda6 as /home
[16:58] <gnuskool> g'day
[16:59] <Lin> archangel_ sucess?
[16:59] <bloony> stefgØ ok
