[06:23] <ikonia> AlexC_: hello, not seen you for a while
[06:23] <Enverex> Does anyone know of a read/write filesystem for Linux that allows on the fly compression of drive contents?
[06:23] <blackjackel> cables: I have no idea, I want it to run right after i type my username and password in and see the desktop...
[06:23] <ikonia> tar jxvf $file
[06:23] <mc__> soundray: alright,my ruby programm is using echo to pipe code to enscript(a programm which generates syntax highlighted html)
[06:23] <ikonia> AlexC_: tar jxvf $file
[06:23] <AlexC_> ikonia: hehe yeah, this place got to busy for me!
[06:23] <cables> blackjackel, ok, go to System>Preferences>Sessions
[06:24] <digital_k> cables: did it do it on its own tho? Did you not initiate the screen shot?
[06:24] <shinao1> hey is there any command line guide to setting up printers in cups on Edgy Eft?
[06:24] <AlexC_> ikonia: thanks!
[06:24] <shinao1> the webconfig of cups just dont work
[06:24] <slavko> #linuxespanol
[06:24] <blackjackel> cables, Pelo: Thanks, doing that now
[06:24] <Tinned_Tuna> ok, I'm back
[06:24] <Tinned_Tuna> chmod doesn't throw an error
[06:24] <ikonia> shinao1: there is one on the community wiki
[06:24] <slavko> join #linuxespanol
[06:24] <cables> digital_k, I had to initiate the screenshot, but from within FF. I think it could probably initiate itself.
[06:24] <soundray> mc__: and you can't change your ruby program?
[06:24] <digital_k> probably not.
[06:24] <Frogzoo> Tinned_Tuna: you need to convince hal to mount with appropriate fat flags, I's not sure how
[06:24] <shinao1> point me the right way ikonia
[06:24] <shinao1> please
[06:24] <ikonia> shinao1: https://help.ubuntu.com
[06:24] <Tinned_Tuna> hrm :/
[06:25] <mc__> soundray: so that it escapes the characters? well that would be a lot of work i think
[06:25] <shinao1> thanks ikonia
[06:25] <danny3793> im having a problem with Anjuta compiling a C++ app into a .o, and not an executable file..anyone wanna help me?
[06:25] <pngwen> Frogzoo: it appears that there isn't a way to.  The "standard docs" are exactly what I did
[06:25] <dr_willis> Enverex,  i belive theres some FUSE modules that allow such a thing with fuse.
[06:25] <digital_k> cables: about the only annoyance I have had with Fx is the stray popup window here or there. but never anything that would compromise my system
[06:25] <ikonia> danny3793: this is ubuntu support - not software building 101
[06:25] <soundray> mc__: you only have to modify the echo calls to output a ' before and a ' after the variable.
[06:26] <Enverex> dr_willis, That doesn't sound like it would work cross machine too well
[06:26] <DrFrankenstein> so guys, does anyone know how to upgrade using the Ubuntu CD-ROM without clean-installing it?
[06:26] <danny3793> ikonia: thanks for pointing out the obvious, seeing as your mr.obvious would you like to point me to software building 101?
[06:26] <AlexC_> DrFrankenstein: you need the alternate CD afaik
[06:26] <jrib> !upgrade > DrFrankenstein (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:26] <pngwen> DrFrankenstein: you need the alternate install CD
[06:26] <cables> digital_k, I've never had any spyware problems with FF, but I'm just wondering what the differences are between XPInstall and ActiveX, they seem to be pretty similar.
[06:26] <DaveTarmac`> I've been trawling the forums about my WPA not showing up in feisty, but to no avail. Anyone here know anything about getting it working?
[06:26] <ikonia> danny3793: the application group that maintain the software your using
[06:26] <pjman> Rambo3: I'll give that a try
[06:26] <pngwen> DrFrankenstein: just put it in to an existing ubuntu system and it should take off.
[06:27] <digital_k> XPI is not Active X they dont even function in the same manner.
[06:27] <DrFrankenstein> pngwen: you think the installer should see it?
[06:27] <danny3793> ikonia: nope :)
[06:27] <ikonia> danny3793: what do you mean nope ? who makes the software your trying to build ?
[06:27] <DrFrankenstein> AlexC_: can I order that disc or I need to download it?
[06:28] <AlexC_> DrFrankenstein: both if you want =D
[06:28] <danny3793> ikonia: theres a difference between the program i am trying to compile, and the "application group that maintain the software i am using" to compile with..
[06:28] <pngwen> DrFrankenstein: on the alternate install cd, there is a script that it executes to begin the upgrade
[06:28] <JakReloaded_> Hey everyone - trying to get my NDISwrapper to work - how do i add the network card under network?
[06:28] <digital_k> cables: here is a good info source on XPI http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XPI
[06:28] <mc__> soundray: yeah that worked! thank you a lot
[06:28] <pngwen> DrFrankenstein: That CD will become your primary apt-get source for the install.
[06:28] <soundray> mc__: yw
[06:28] <ikonia> danny3793: speak to the people who wrote the software
[06:28] <DrFrankenstein> because my internet connection sure is not good enough
[06:28] <ikonia> danny3793: is that clear and none-subjective enough
[06:28] <blackjackel> That seems to have worked, thanks all...
[06:28] <digital_k> cables: one for active x also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ActiveX_control
[06:29] <danny3793> ikonia: i believe it isnt, but thanks for trying :)
[06:29] <cox377> can anyone recommend an app to join avi files?
[06:29] <jrib> cox377: avicat
[06:29] <ikonia> danny3793: what is the software your trying to build ?
[06:29] <danny3793> ikonia: i also believe you meant "non-subjective" not "none-subjective" :)
[06:29] <DrFrankenstein> so all I can do with the normal live/install CD is a clean install?
[06:29] <mar77i> brennus390: funny. it actually was deactivated. now its on, recognized with lspci but not with esd.
[06:30] <ikonia> danny3793: thanks for picking up on spelling mistakes, thats great
[06:30] <JakReloaded_> Hey everyone - Trying to get NDISWrapper to work - but how do i add the network card under ubuntu? (i have always done it through yast so a little lost!)
[06:30] <digital_k> DrFrankenstein: pretty much. I found that out the hard way with my first LiveCD. :/
[06:30] <brennus390> mar77i: well, at least it's a step in the right direction
[06:30] <Frogzoo> !ndiswrapper | JakReloaded_
[06:30] <ubotu> JakReloaded_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:31] <mar77i> XD sorry
[06:31] <soundray> ikonia: you mean "that's great". It's so rewarding sometimes to help people in here... ;)
[06:31] <cox377> jrib: i cant seem to find it on the repos mate
[06:31] <cox377> any ideaS?
[06:31] <sileni> JakkReloaded: look at this tutorial http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/ubuntu-releases/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso, even if it does not apply to you, you can figure out the answer to your question
[06:31] <DrFrankenstein> ok.... with a 40 Gb hard disk, no way to backup on another partition.... I'll clean-install it when I get my external HD, thanks anyway
[06:31] <ikonia> soundray: ha ha ha ha ha
[06:31] <cox377> !avicat
[06:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avicat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[06:31] <sileni> bah
[06:31] <jrib> cox377: it's in the avifile-utils package in universe
[06:31] <gumpish> =/ When I'm connected in full screen mode using tsclient is there a way to get out of full screen mode or at least switch to another virtual desktop without having to disconnect?
[06:31] <JakReloaded_> Frogzoo: Thanks A bunch!! Shall start reading now =D
[06:31] <brennus390> mar77i: did you upgrade this to a new version of ubuntu or was it a clean install?
[06:31] <sileni> Jakk sorry the wrong url
[06:31] <sileni> one second
[06:31] <Frogzoo> JakReloaded_: cheers, gl
[06:31] <noobdude> i could only install Ubuntu with the command line install
[06:32] <noobdude> it was easy
[06:32] <mar77i> clean install of the actual ver. updated packages ever since.
[06:32] <james> does Ubuntu have an error log like OS X?
[06:32] <noobdude> i couldn't get the live CD going
[06:32] <soundray> james: /var/log/syslog
[06:32] <dr_willis> james,  theres a lot of logging in /var/log
[06:32] <james> thanks
[06:32] <digital_k> OS what? ;)
[06:32] <dr_willis> OS XXX for all your porn needs.
[06:33] <Pimp1984> Toma - Restarting hasn't worked. It's still listed as eth1.
[06:33] <digital_k> lol
[06:33] <soundray> digital_k: it's an outdated closed-source OS by a company that should focus on fruit again ;)
[06:33] <Toma-> Pimp1984: how bizarre.
[06:33] <Pimp1984> sileni - I didn't know you had to erase instances of eth1
[06:33] <digital_k> oh you mean the ipod people?
[06:33] <digital_k> haha
[06:33] <UbuntuMonk> Hello! I have a question regarding CPU usage in Ubuntu. I don't exactly know how to phrase this but i noticed xmms uses 10%+ of my CPU while playing mp3. It is an Athlon 2800+. I know that is to much. What can be wrong?
[06:33] <dr_willis> 'when marketing trumps innovation!'
[06:34] <DaveTarmac`> I've got a dualboot of vista/feisty on my system, everything works nicely until Itry to connect to my network. I get WEP options, but no WPA. I'm using a D-Link G520+ (atheros) card. I've looked on the forums, but can't seem to find a solution. Can anyone assist?
[06:34] <dr_willis> UbuntuMonk,  for a start. could try somthing other then xmms its a bit out dated. :0
[06:34] <digital_k> UbuntuMonk:cpu usage for any media playback is normal I would think.
[06:34] <brennus390> mar77i: cause i've seen issues with upgrading to feisty and esd not seeing things...or something like that
[06:34] <james> DaveTarmac, you could try the latest atheros build of madwifi
[06:34] <soundray> UbuntuMonk: it isn't too much. MP3 decoding is very CPU-intensive, unless you have a specialized chip.
[06:34] <OlliK> Hi, all!
[06:34] <AlexC_> hi
[06:34] <digital_k> hi OlliK
[06:34] <digital_k> and AlexC_
[06:34] <DaveTarmac`> james: doesn't feisty have it built in? wpa is also loaded on to my ubuntu install
[06:35] <cox377> i've installed java 6, however when i do java -version i still get 1.4.x.x something, how do i change that?
[06:35] <OlliK> I have a small problem. I installed this ejabberd jabber-server a while ago, now I'm not using it and the service is not on autostart. However, whenever I try to shut down / restart the computer it jams when it is "shutting down jabber server ejabberd", and only way to turn off PC is to force it of by power button
[06:35] <jeduan> sudo update-java-alternatives
[06:35] <Tinned_Tuna> DaveTarmac: Last time I had a linux desktop, I had to install the package 'wpa-supplicant' for all my WPA needs... is this still necessary?
[06:36] <jeduan> and then select java-6-sun
[06:36] <OlliK> I wanted to get rid of this ejabberd since I'm not even using it, so I tried to sudo apt-get remove it, but when I try to remove it starts to shut down the server and jams there
[06:36] <UbuntuMonk> Yes i know. But with xorg up, the computer still uses 10%, just idling.
[06:36] <CheshireViking> DaveTarmac`, wpa seems to depend on which wireless card you're using, I've got an RT2500 based pcmcia card & wpa has to be manually configured through command line, while another machine with built in intel wireless has it configurable via network manager
[06:36] <OlliK> So I seem to have no way to uninstall / get rid of it, any suggestions?
[06:36] <DaveTarmac`> Tinned_Tuna: wpasupplicant is installed by default
[06:36] <digital_k> OlliK: in terminal, do a : sudo apt-get -f install
[06:36] <digital_k> then try to uninstall it again
[06:37] <OlliK> digital_k: what does the -f do ?
[06:37] <digital_k> OlliK: you can also search for it in synaptic and remove it that way.
[06:37] <DaveTarmac`> CheshireViking: Are there any device specific drivers? Or would the latest madwifi take care of them all?
[06:37] <digital_k> that means fix
[06:37] <Erratum5_James> brb, everyone.  I'm going to try something out with my wireless card
[06:38] <OlliK> It might be that system thinks that the ejabberd server is on even though it is not, and that's why it's jamming when it tries to uninstall. Is there some file that it creates somewhere when it is on?
[06:38] <JohnM> hi all, i'm wondering if yous could help me get my sound working on my laptop, the sound chip is an intel 945PM express
[06:38] <JohnM> thanks in advance
[06:38] <soundray> OlliK: just do what digital_k suggests
[06:38] <Pelo> !sound | JohnM  start with this
[06:38] <ubotu> JohnM  start with this: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3

[06:39] <Tinned_Tuna> DaveTarmac: ok then :) just giving what I know about desktop linux :p
[06:39] <Pimp1984> sileni - I didn't know you had to erase instances of eth1
[06:39] <DaveTarmac`> Tinned_Tuna: No worries. I'm open to any and all suggestions
[06:39] <JohnM> thanks i'll try those suggestions :)
 via this option appears vnccommon and vnc viewer, but not vnc server. This first 2 options are already installed.
[06:40] <CheshireViking> DaveTarmac`, i'm not sure, I'm still looking at it for myself, the rt2500 card I can get working with wpa, while the intel one I can't yet, both different drivers though, the rt2500 comes up as ra0, but the intel one shows up as ath0, i think i need to manually configure the ath0 as well
[06:40] <OlliK> digital_k: ok I typed sudo apt-get -f install, and it stops there, this is what it says in the end:
[06:40] <JakReloaded_> frogzoo: Thanks for the guide - i have run the lspci command but my card outputs "Belkin Unknown device 700f (rev 20)" any ideas how else i can find out?
[06:40] <ikonia> artabrahao: what do you want me to do ?
[06:40] <OlliK> You already have /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.pem
[06:40] <OlliK> Starting jabber server: ejabberd
[06:40] <digital_k> ok
[06:40] <OlliK> and nothing happens
[06:40] <mar77i> I think now it's just parse_card that gets '' (empty string) card information. what is next here?
[06:40] <digital_k> that means its not broken, thats a good thing OlliK
[06:41] <OlliK> I probablyo have to ctrl+c it
[06:41] <digital_k> open synaptic and search for it
[06:41] <mar77i> it is, as u say esd not recognizing the card
[06:41] <ahmed> hi,guys i have just installed ubuntu , and i was wondering how will i install my adsl usb modem driver on it ? can any one help plz

[06:41] <OlliK> digital_k: the sudo apt-get install -f is still in process, it is trying to start ejabbed server
[06:41] <OlliK> digital_k: can I just ctrl+c it?
[06:41] <AlexC_> blackjackel: separate with ;
[06:41] <digital_k> let it run

[06:42] <BeatsMe2> hi! how do i add user to CUPS

[06:48] <SlimeyPete> tls_81: I did until fairly recently
[06:49] <Erratum5_James> ubuntu is debian
[06:49] <OlliK> digital_k: It seems to do exactly same as what it did when I tried to remove it with apt-get, it jams in the process, Adept has now been trying to remove it for 5 minutes
[06:49] <tls_81> pete: why leave?
[06:49] <pngwen> tls_81 I have a few debian servers
[06:49] <ahmed> guys does ubuntu have the pnp function ?? plug nd play// i mean if i connected a hard ware will it detect it automatically once its plugeD ??
[06:49] <SlimeyPete> tls_81: 'cos Ubuntu's essentially Debian with a nicer installer...
[06:49] <blackjackel> This is behaving rather oddly... I'm trying to get warcraft 3 running from my main menu.... Running the command "wine /home/blackjackel/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Warcraft\ III/Warcraft_III.exe -opengl" in terminal runs it fine, but when I attempt to add it as a "command" for a main menu item, warcraft 3 runs but asks for a cd, even though there is always the cd in the drive either way.... this is driving me crazy....
[06:49] <pngwen> tls_81 what do you need to know?
[06:49] <Traveler8> i have ubuntu on a ibm t30
[06:49] <tls_81> pete: do you use the installer all the time?
[06:49] <mudit> ahmed: no i think it doesnt
[06:49] <OlliK> digital_k: in apt-get it jammed while saying "shutting down jabber server, ejabberd"
[06:49] <OlliK> digital_k: Although I didn't have it started
[06:50] <mar77i> looked on it once more - doesn't show up
[06:50] <brainiac8008> hi.  when i start up ubuntu sometimes, this comes up: "/dev/hda3 has been mounted 30 times without being checked, check forced."  What is this operation doing exactly?
[06:50] <tls_81> just curious how many ubuntu users have actually used debian....
[06:50] <Thomas_Grainger> hi, I am having a problem with the ubuntu 64bit CD
[06:50] <Traveler8> when mozilla hangs the whole system hangs
[06:50] <mudit> ahmed: i have been also having a prob with a network card
[06:50] <ahmed> how to do the device refresh then..
[06:50] <pngwen> tls_81 I used debian from the days of potato on
[06:50] <Traveler8> must reboot
[06:50] <brennus390> tls_81: ubuntu at work ... freebsd at home :)
[06:50] <Traveler8> can not even kill X
[06:50] <mar77i> looked *at* it... ;-)
[06:50] <Erratum5_James> isn't freebsd butt ugly, though?
[06:50] <SlimeyPete> tls_81: nope. I didn't specifically ditch Debian, though - it's just that I got hold of new hardware / bought new hard disks so I needed to reinstall anyway
[06:50] <tls_81> ah...
[06:51] <Lectus> Hello! I installed beryl and now X won't start. it hangs on the screen with NVIDIA logo. Any idea?
[06:51] <Thomas_Grainger> I cannot install, and I have a 64bit Intel processor
[06:51] <Traveler8> t30?
[06:51] <tls_81> am using debian since the beginign of my linux expereince, i did use breazy badger for a while but still went back to debian...
[06:51] <tls_81> was curious if there was many ex debian users...
[06:51] <tls_81> here
[06:52] <rambo3> not ex still using it
[06:52] <nero678> hello
[06:52] <OlliK> digital_k: Adept seems to have crashed.. it doesn't respond anymore, removing ejabberd 50%
[06:52] <Traveler8> firefox hangs entire system
[06:52] <nero678> which is better
[06:52] <tls_81> rambo:  you also use ubuntu?
[06:52] <nero678> gnome or kde
[06:52] <nero678> ?
[06:52] <SlimeyPete> now there's a flamewar in the making ;)
[06:52] <OlliK> Does anyone know how to remove a process that is not actually started but system thinks it has been started and jams while trying to shut it down?
[06:52] <SlimeyPete> nero678: try both, and decide for yourself
[06:52] <tls_81> No ways slimey just curiosity....
[06:52] <mar77i> thx for help, brennus. think this will do it.
[06:53] <tls_81> lol
[06:53] <rambo3> tls_81, ot for this channel . yes i use debian(for older machine) and ubuntu
[06:53] <JinRoh> What "Music Player" do you use? I don't like XMMS :P
[06:53] <tls_81> xmms rocks
[06:53] <mzfckr> user amarok then
[06:53] <brennus390> mar77i: you could try manually loading the modules
[06:53] <mistone> I like totem
[06:53] <rambo3> banshee
[06:54] <cox377> I'm trying to run azureus swing which runs on java, it allows u to view your torrents via firefox. however i'm getting the msg 'Loading Java applet Failed', if i put the log in paste bin would someone mind having a look?
[06:54] <brennus390> mar77i: no problem...sorry you didn't get it up and running but i think your close...have a good one
[06:54] <initial-a> I cant boot my kubuntu 6.06 LTS. what should I do? the cd drive is the old one.
[06:55] <tls_81> my drink tastes good..*passes the bottle round
[06:55] <cox377> http://pastebin.ca/498704
[06:55] <hydan> does kio come preinstalled in 7.04?
[06:56] <tls_81> who likes eels?

[06:57] <bbby[0] > hi,  i upgraded edgy to feisty, and now I can't ping|ssh other computers on the lan (not wireless). funny thing is http://{that_ip} works.
[06:58] <mar77i> think compiling alsa with the fitting drivers will make it work. tried that enough already...
[06:58] <brennus390> bbby[0] : are you pinging ip addresses
[06:58] <bbby[0] > yes
 I think that you did not know that and know another way to install vnc
[06:58] <ikonia> artabrahao: what ?
[06:58] <brennus390> bbby[0] : and no go?  weird you can access an http://<ip_address> but not ping one
[06:58] <ikonia> artabrahao: vncserver - Virtual network computing server software
[06:59] <idkaname> In dapper, i can only set my resolution to 1280 by 768, but i should be able to use 1280 by 800, how do i fix that????
[06:59] <ikonia> artabrahao: vnc4server - Virtual network computing server software
[06:59] <eifzon> anyone using (crossover) here?
[06:59] <ikonia> artabrahao: tons of packages
[06:59] <JinRoh> how can I move a menu item from "Other" to "games"???
[06:59] <bbby[0] > exactly. "host unreachable" with anything command line
[06:59] <Pimp1984> sileni - are you there?
[06:59] <kblog> anybody who knows ssh well here? :(
[07:00] <brennus390> bbby[0] : does this work? "http://<IP_ADDRESS>/"
[07:00] <JinRoh> how can I move a menu item from "Other" to "games"???
[07:00] <idkaname> In dapper, I can only set my resolution to 1280 by 768, but i should be able to use 1280 by 800. Does any one know how to fix that?
[07:00] <brennus390> bbby[0] : also try pinging that ip...i know it's ping-able
[07:00] <bbby[0] > brennus390, yahoo 404 i see
[07:00] <brennus390> bbby[0] : some ip's have echo requests turned off for security
[07:01] <Fezzler> What's the grep command to look for a file across all dir and folders?  Looking for smb log file.
[07:01] <ahmed> guys does kubuntu have java runtime enviroment installed ?
 I know what vnc server means, I did not understant what you want with this
[07:01] <ikonia> grep -R
[07:01] <bbby[0] > i don't remember setting that, but don't know where to check
[07:01] <blackjackel> Ok the problem I have is different, apparently when I cd to /home/blackjackel/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Warcraft\ III/ then type "wine Warcraft_III.exe" the game runs fine, but when I type: "wine /home/blackjackel/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Warcraft\ III/Warcraft_III.exe -opengl" which SHOULD do the same thing, instead it runs the game then asks for a CD, even though the CD is always in the drive.... what should i do?
[07:01] <vox754> !java
[07:01] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[07:01] <ikonia> artabrahao: you get the package from the package manager - and install it
[07:01] <ahmed> does any one know a good java ide on linux then ??
[07:02] <bbby[0] > brennus390, your ip pings ok
[07:02] <hylje> blackjackel: wine is confused when you give full linux paths to it
[07:02] <JinRoh> how can I move a menu item from "Other" to "games"???
[07:02] <blackjackel> hybrid: How can i get around this problem?
[07:02] <hylje> blackjackel: use "c:\path\to\wc3.exe" to work around it
[07:02] <brennus390> bbby[0] : ok...so now does "ping yahoo.com" work?
[07:02] <svu_> gpg errors on apt-get update - is it a known problem?
[07:02] <hylje> blackjackel: where "c:\" is your .wine/drive_c
[07:02] <blackjackel> hybrid: sorry about that, meant to talk to someone else
[07:02] <bbby[0] > brennus390, champion
[07:02] <idkaname> When i go to change my resolution, the highest is1 280 by 768, but It should be 1280 by 800. Does any one know how to fix that?
[07:02] <blackjackel> hylje: alright, trying that
[07:03] <bbby[0] > so does that of the router's ip
[07:03] <brennus390> bbby[0] : ok...not sure what the problem is then...you having problems with pinging an internal computer?
[07:03] <lsalminen> a

[07:03] <vox754> ahmed, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=6762

[07:04] <blackjackel>  ?
[07:04] <brennus390> bbby[0] : did you check "/etc/resolv.conf" to make sure you have the local nameservers listed?
[07:04] <hylje> blackjackel: use quotes to wrap the path
[07:04] <bbby[0] > yeah,  192.*.*.100 and 192.*.*.101  both have apache and http is fine,  but they can't ping each other
[07:04] <brennus390> bbby[0] : had to look back at your original problem statement
[07:04] <blackjackel> hylje: that way also asks for a CD...
[07:05] <hylje> blackjackel: then i don't know. i run wc3 that way
[07:05] <Fezzler> To fine log.smb is it "sudo grep -r log.smb" ?
[07:05] <fargiolas> hi where could i find a ubuntu complete package list including gutsy packages?
[07:05] <brussel> Do I want to install the vmware server or player in order to run w2k and freebsd under ubuntu?
[07:05] <mar77i> just had another linux question
[07:05] <Enverex> brennus390, Then winecfg isn't set up properly and you need to make sure it's got D: as your drive and set to CD Rom
[07:05] <brennus390> bbby[0] : the *.* is the same for both servers correct?  say <IP_ADDRESS> and <IP_ADDRESS>
[07:06] <mar77i> concerning bash. how do you configure bash for a specified user?
[07:06] <bbby[0] > yeah, was being lazy, srry
[07:06] <ikonia> mar77i: .bash_profile in each users home dir
[07:06] <brennus390> Enverex: huh?
[07:06] <mar77i> and .bash_profile is written in .sh?
[07:06] <Enverex> brennus390, What part of that didn't you get...?
[07:07] <Fezzler> no grep Q takers?
[07:07] <rosdeebala> help me pleas !!! Can I play msn on Ubanto ?

[07:07] <Enverex> brennus390, Erm, 1 sec
[07:07] <Enverex> brennus390, Sorry, mixed you and blackjackel up
[07:07] <Enverex> blackjackel, , Then winecfg isn't set up properly and you need to make sure it's got D: as your drive and set to CD Rom
[07:08] <brennus390> mar77i: do you mean to customize bash for a particular user?
[07:08] <blackjackel> Enverex, then how come it runs fine when I cd to the path first then run warcraft 3?
[07:08] <brennus390> Enverex: no worries :)
[07:08] <nero2150> hi every1

[07:08] <Enverex> blackjackel, eerie
[07:08] <mar77i> yeah. ikonia just gave me an answer, but what is the difference 'tween .bashrc and .bash_profile
[07:09] <blackjackel> Enverex, now you know my troubles :X
[07:09] <JinRoh> how can I move a menu item from "Other" to "games"???
[07:09] <Enverex> blackjackel, Make a bash script and use that to run the game instead
[07:09] <rosdeebala> help me pleas !!! Can I play msn on Ubanto ?
[07:09] <JinRoh> ubanto?
[07:09] <Fezzler> I don't understand IRC how a room can have 96 people in it but no conversation going on.
[07:09] <Enverex> "play msn"?
[07:09] <ikonia> mar77i: bashrc is called at init of the shell, that then calls bash_profile to set the environment
[07:09] <JinRoh> :p
[07:09] <brennus390> mar77i: not sure there is much difference...i do know that on some unix's .bashrc doesn't work well...so you have to use .bash_profile
[07:09] <rosdeebala> help me pleas !!! Can I play msn on Ubantu ?
[07:09] <blackjackel> Enverex, don't know how to create bash scripts :X

[07:12] <dappis> mistone: it is recommended to reboot after you install a newer kernel
[07:12] <ikonia> brennus390: thats nothing to do with freebsd thats how the port was put together
[07:13] <piedoggie> was pyro for dapper built single or multithreaded?
[07:13] <dappis> and if it isn't necessary, it won't hurt either
[07:13] <blackjackel> Enverex, that works in GUI, how do i run it in terminal? ./scriptname?
[07:13] <brennus390> ikonia: ah ...
[07:13] <FabienD_> hi all
[07:13] <Enverex> blackjackel, sh scriptname

[07:44] <fuoco> hi. i got a problem. somehow when i removed old kernel packages i was left with a system that has no kernel at all - only to find that i couldn't boot anymore. i used a cd to chroot into the system and used dpkg to install a kernel package that worked before. and still i can't boot
[07:44] <fuoco> any ideas?
[07:44] <FruitieX> tried aptitude for that?
[07:44] <FruitieX> but i guess its the same :)
[07:45] <Captain_Haddock> Hi, I need some help with installing samba (I was attempting to reinstall it because of an issue and appear to have broken it further) :(
[07:45] <Captain_Haddock> Installing it gives me the error: invoke-rc.d: initscript samba, action "start" failed.
[07:45] <Captain_Haddock> and
[07:45] <Captain_Haddock> dpkg: error processing samba (--configure):
[07:45] <Captain_Haddock>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[07:45] <Captain_Haddock> I have _purged_ it completely and smbfs as well.. to no avail
[07:46] <arkanabar> this is doubtless trivial, but I'd like to change the font color for desktop icons in gnome.
[07:46] <Captain_Haddock> I have also tried deleting all the samba links from rc*.d
[07:46] <radix64> hi anyone knows how to install the i2c drivers for ubuntu in a intel centrino core2duo ?
[07:47] <ffm>  Is there anyway to capture a digital vidoe that is playing in WMP on the web? THere is no way for me to download it directly from the site.
[07:47] <rollerskatejamms> Will using compression with rsync save time or increase it?
[07:47] <PriceChild> ffm, I think something like mencoder/mplayer could do that...
[07:48] <PriceChild> rollerskatejamms, increase time, decrease bandwidth
[07:48] <rollerskatejamms> PriceChild, Its a local transfer to an external hd
[07:48] <ffm> PriceChild, It uses an activex control to disply it.
[07:48] <PriceChild> ffm, have you got the location of the stream?
[07:48] <dru> frogzoo: i tryed without and nobody listened .. now that i did u listened? see how that worked
[07:48] <ffm> PriceChild, the url of the page it is embeedded on, yes
[07:49] <PriceChild> ffm, well then you might want to try reading its source to track down the originating media.
[07:49] <ffm> PriceChild, http://www.pe.com/video/index.html?nvid=145357&shu=1
[07:50] <Captain_Haddock> Actually, I have the same problem as this chap: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2245430&postcount=7
[07:50] <PriceChild> ffm, I haven't got the time to myself. I'm afraid you'll just have to read the source to hunt it down if you really want to.
[07:50] <ffm> thanks, PriceChild

[08:08] <reverseblade> VLC should do it wiithout the codecs
[08:08] <X-vind> VCD's don't mount but other data CD's do
[08:08] <rambo3> rockstar_, i am guessing (hd1)
[08:08] <KennyTheGeek> cd #e
[08:09] <KennyTheGeek> woops xDDD
[08:09] <reverseblade> X-vind, non standard burner
[08:09] <Jack3> hey, i rebooted and now my wireless card is gone
[08:09] <X-vind> I have got all the codecs through automatix
[08:09] <Jack3> but my ethernet is still there
[08:09] <stefg> *find /boot/grub/menu.lst , that is , rockstar_
[08:09] <Jack3> anyone know what?
[08:09] <X-vind> reverseblade, not a non standard burner, A Lite-on DVD Burner
[08:09] <Don> try with automatix only you must have  internet
[08:10] <ahmed> guys help plz. i have just installed kde on ubuntu , when i open the start menu some of the application icons doesnt show up....
[08:10] <reverseblade> X-vind, then it does not burn in standard way
[08:10] <stefg> ahmed: #kubuntu would know that
[08:10] <Jack3> anyone know?
[08:10] <reverseblade> ahmed, #kubuntu ?
[08:11] <rockstar_> stefg, I'm installing ubuntu, so technically, there is no existing /boot/grub/menu.lst yet on this drive.  I need to know the id for the live install to target the grub installation.
[08:11] <WaxyFresh> my bios dosent support booting from a cd,is there any other way to install ubuntu by useing the cd?the computer has win95/98? on it and no internet accsess
[08:11] <edistar> hey
[08:11] <X-vind> Reverseblade, I don't seem to have any problems with burning CD/DVD's
[08:11] <Don> syslinux
[08:11] <edistar> can someone help me set up a xfce environment on ttyl9 and run a gnome on ttyl7 at the same time?
[08:11] <siloko> in case anyone was on earlier with my cron problem - i fixed it!!
[08:11] <reverseblade> X-vind, then why can't you mount the CD ?
[08:11] <Don> try with syslinux
[08:11] <stefg> rockstar_: find <tab> <tab> gives a list
[08:12] <stefg> rockstar_: on the grub prompt
[08:12] <siloko> i had an exclude from file in my rsync command - which I had only put a relative path to in my shell script
[08:12] <X-vind> I can mount data CD's and DVD's but not VCD's
[08:12] <stefg> !grub | rockstar_
[08:12] <ubotu> rockstar_: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:12] <Xaith2Ri> @rockstar: usb drives are typically scsi, so it will probably be a sd* drive. check what you already have in /dev, start the usb drive, and look for what's new.
[08:12] <siloko> so anyone else running cron jobs to process rsync commands - be careful of your paths!!
[08:12] <cypher1> is there any way to make the sound from firefox to go to a USB headphone ?
[08:12] <killown> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[08:12] <killown>     what I do to fix it?
[08:12] <rockstar_> stefg, Ah, there's grub PROMPT.
[08:12] <reverseblade> X-vind, and tose Data cd's and VCD's burned with the same burner ?
[08:12] <stefg> rockstar_: grub is indeed a micro OS
[08:13] <reverseblade> X-vind, technically a VCD is a data cd , so what you are saying is conflicting
[08:13] <X-vind> Reverseblade: Nope those are the ones from different sources. viz mag's etc
[08:13] <edistar> noone has an idea?
[08:13] <gluttony> jrib: hey, still know how to help me?
[08:14] <reverseblade> X-vind, all I can say, a VCD is a data CD, it is indifferent
[08:14] <killown> invoke-rc.d: initscript amavis, action "start" failed.
[08:14] <killown> help me
[08:14] <stefg> edistar: i don't know but I'd look at xnest
[08:14] <FruitieX> edistar: I haven't managed to do that without creating an additional account to log in to the other session with
[08:14] <balader> what?
[08:15] <cypher1> killown, you can look at rc logs to understand more
[08:15] <X-vind> Reverseblade: I too agree but this problem seems unique
[08:15] <killown> ok
[08:15] <rollerskatejamms> God I love rsync.
[08:15] <cypher1> killown, syslog and messages also for any deamon messages
[08:15] <X-vind> Reverseblade: VCD's are not automounted and trying to mount it manually gives a message "No medium found"
[08:16] <AnXa> huh?
[08:16] <WaxyFresh> if my computer wont boot frommy cdrom drive,is a ubuntu install cd pointless?
[08:17] <stefg> !boot

[08:17] <stefg> WaxyFresh: got a floppy? Try sbm !
[08:17] <reverseblade> X-vind, I dunno, but I don't want to believe this is a special treatment for VCD's and not data cds
[08:18] <stefg> WaxyFresh: but keep in mind you'll need 256 MB for the Live CD to run. Computers with such an old CD-rom tend to not have enough RAM
[08:19] <WaxyFresh> !sbm
[08:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sbm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:19] <stefg> WaxyFresh: sbm... smart boot manager
[08:19] <stefg> look at ubotu's message
[08:19] <X-vind> reverseblade: I on your suggestion I checked out my VCD on my Dell Laptop with ubuntu
[08:20] <WaxyFresh> stefg: thanks ill check it out
[08:20] <blackjackel> How can I tell which video driver I have installed? I
[08:20] <X-vind> reverseblade: There the VCD is detected. I guess your theory about a non standard DVD drive is right
[08:20] <Buggz> Is there an equivalent of Task Manager in Ubuntu? There is a program that won't respond.
[08:20] <blackjackel> I am looking in the DEVICE manager but I can't see where it says what driver I have installed...
[08:21] <magic_ninja> open a terminal and type sudo xkill then click on the window

[08:21] <hydan> how do you the available free space on your system?
[08:21] <hydan> how do you see*** the available free space on your system? ****
[08:21] <stefg> hydan: df -h && free -m
[08:21] <hydan> thanks
[08:21] <X-vind> Reverseblade: I am still not clear about the non standard part. Can you please elaborate
[08:21] <Buggz> thanks, magic_ninja
[08:21] <magic_ninja> Buggz: np
[08:23] <hydan> is there a way to repartition the drives so that i can grab more space for ubuntu to use?
[08:23] <pppoe_dude> any way to connect two computers via ethernet with a straight-through cable (as opposed to a crossover one) directly?
[08:23] <Ian_> hello
[08:23] <hydan> pppoe_dude, your question so kicks mine's
[08:23] <ardya> pppoe_dude: no, thats the purpose of the crossover
[08:23] <hydan> :P
[08:23] <Mallan> hi, i'm having problems getting my sound to work on my laptop, the chipset is an intel 82801G ICH7, i tried doing what this link says but i get the same error as them, http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1488
[08:24] <balader> hello!!
[08:25] <Ian_> sorry to bother you, but i was trying to install ubuntu (i have installed a few OS's before, but never have i seen one so odd (in the live disk, KISS). My main problem is how do i ensure that ubuntu does not overwrite the MBR - i wouldnt find an option anywhere...?
[08:25] <balader> there is any f for msn?
[08:25] <rambo3> Mallan, try : sudo modprobe -r snd-hda-intel && sudmo modprobe  snd-hda-intel  model=3stack
[08:25] <ardya> Ian_: use the alternate iso
[08:25] <wimdows> hi guys - what modifications do I need to make to my smb.conf file to be able to have write access from a Windows XP client
[08:25] <wimdows> ?
[08:25] <flodine> can someone tell me why the desktop effect dont work in ubuntu
[08:25] <ili> i've used windows for 4ever
[08:25] <ili> and i am thinking of switching to ubuntu
[08:25] <Jack3> is there a key shortcut to open a console?
[08:26] <Xaith2Ri> ubuntu never overwrites the MBR, if you have windows installed it automatically adds a boot option for your alternative operating system to the boot loader.
[08:26] <ardya> Xaith2Ri: of course it does.
[08:26] <Frogzoo> Jack3: define one in - sys -> prefs -> shortcuts
[08:26] <ardya> overwrites the mbr, and adds windows to grub.
[08:26] <DaveG|> hey can anyone help me trying to get perl working with a ubuntu lamp install?
[08:26] <blackjackel> Anyone know how I can find out what video driver I have installed? What version etc?
[08:27] <pppoe_dude> hydan, what kinds of partitions do you have?
[08:27] <Frogzoo> DaveG|: sudo apt-get install perl
[08:27] <Ian_> so i will automatically keep my windows boot loader in the MBR will I?
[08:27] <ardya> Ian_: use the alternate iso
[08:27] <DaveG|> Frogzoo already installed
[08:27] <BobbyBi> hi, how do i switch from xubuntu to gnome with having to reinstall with cd?
[08:28] <Frogzoo> DaveG|: and the apache perl  module?
[08:28] <hydan> pppoe_dude, /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda2
[08:28] <Ian_> ardya: so, without an alternative ISO, there is no way to not overwrite the MBR?
[08:28] <DaveG|> Frogzoo i believe so
[08:28] <Enverex> BobbyBi, aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[08:28] <ompaul> !traffic
[08:28] <PriceChild> !netsplit
[08:28] <ubotu> NOTICE - There is a lot of traffic in this channel at the moment.

[08:28] <DaveG|> Frogzoo but the main problem is that i wanna get it so it runs perl scripts anywhere
[08:28] <DaveG|> so it may be already working
[08:29] <BobbyBi> thats it, i dont have to uninstall xfce
[08:29] <pppoe_dude> hydan, and both are ext3?
[08:29] <ianubuntu> ardya: so, without an alternative ISO, there is no way to not overwrite the MBR?
[08:29] <hydan> hda1 is ntfs
[08:29] <hydan> pppoe_dude, hda1 is ntfs
[08:29] <bbrazil> ianubuntu: you could take a copy of the MBR and put it back after the install
[08:29] <pppoe_dude> hydan, ah ok, well, not much you can do about the ntfs partitions, but you can try resizing and moving partitions using gparted
[08:30] <hydan> pppoe_dude, will do.
[08:30] <hydan> pppoe_dude, thank you.
[08:30] <FruitieX> what should i do to install GtkRadiant onto my Ubuntu Feisty 64-bit system?  I have tried downloading the source from SVN, but when doing scons SETUP=0 it stops with this message: scons: building terminated because of errors.
[08:30] <ianubuntu> bbrazil: i would much rather leave it alone in the first place. i haven't met another OS which wont let me do that, ubuntu used to let me do that even!
[08:30] <ianubuntu> why drop the support?
[08:30] <pppoe_dude> hydan, can't remember if it does ntfs, but in any case you will need to use livecd
[08:30] <ardya> hence the alternate ISO
[08:30] <BobbyBi> to install gnome and remove "xubuntu" i just write in ---->   aptitude install ubuntu-desktop  ?
[08:31] <ianubuntu> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download - where do i get this alternative ISO then
[08:31] <qwertzpoiu> when making a lvm ..  do I need to have partitions on the logical device like /dev/hde1  .. or can I delete all partitions on /dev/hde and use it?
[08:31] <ianubuntu> ah - at the bottom
[08:31] <pppoe_dude> bobby123, that will only install ubuntu-desktop and it's packages, but won't remove xubuntu
[08:31] <ardya> qwertzpoiu: make partitions
[08:31] <pppoe_dude> BobbyBi, *
[08:31] <Don> what the firts vertion of ubuntu, i need for a old pc
[08:31] <ardya> tag them as lvm
[08:31] <BobbyBi> how do i remove
[08:31] <ianubuntu> ardta: so this alternative iso will allow me to leave the MBR intact will it? which isn't possible using the live disk?
[08:31] <ardya> read the lvm howto
[08:31] <qwertzpoiu> ok ..  yes with cfdisk
[08:31] <ianubuntu> ardya: so this alternative iso will allow me to leave the MBR intact will it? which isn't possible using the live disk?
[08:32] <dappis> alt-f2 opens the run program dialog
[08:32] <BobbyBi> the x desktopp
[08:32] <qwertzpoiu> yes I'm using a howto.. but it gave me some problems
[08:32] <pppoe_dude> bobby123, you will need to manually remove any dependencies installed by xubuntu-desktop that are not needed anymore
[08:32] <BobbyBi> how do i remove the x desktop
[08:32] <AlexC_> there they are all!
[08:32] <pppoe_dude> BobbyBi, *
[08:32] <dappis> apparently the lost ones came back
[08:32] <pppoe_dude> darn tab
[08:32] <BobbyBi> :D
[08:32] <ahmed> guys i have just installed beryl ,, but wheni try running it ,, it shows in the task bar but then closes,, plzz helpp
[08:32] <ardya> ian: no idea about the live disk, the alternate wont overwrite mbr however. but you'll need the cd to boot linux until you add linux to ntldr
[08:32] <stefg> !effects | ahmed
[08:32] <ubotu> ahmed: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects.
[08:32] <squidly> how do I recover/reset my user account in ubuntu?
[08:32] <BobbyBi> apt-get remove --purge xubuntu-desktop
[08:33] <BobbyBi> ??
[08:33] <mzanfardino> I've recently installed Feisty and I can't seem to playback a DVD.  I've tried VLC, Xine, Mplayer and Kaffeine but they all fail to play back.  Any suggestions?
[08:33] <dappis> also aptitude purge package
[08:33] <ianubuntu> ardya: question stands. my connection dropped (again :|)
[08:33] <ardya> ianubuntu: no idea about the live disk, the alternate wont overwrite mbr however. but you'll need the cd to boot linux until you add linux to ntldr
[08:33] <pngwen> ok, so now I have gotten vmware to uninstall and reinstall, but now it is not extracting and installing its /etc/init.d scripts
[08:33] <BobbyBi> package as in package
[08:33] <stefg> squidly: recover /or/ reset ?
[08:33] <dappis> mzanfardino: install w32codecs, libdvdread and libdvdcss
[08:33] <homanj> BobbyBi: what does the purge flag do?
[08:33] <pngwen> is there, perhaps, an "aptitude install --work-correctly" flag?
[08:33] <ianubuntu> ardya: thanks
[08:34] <pppoe_dude> BobbyBi,  xubuntu-desktop is a meta-package, which means it is a pseudo package that depends on al the packages required to run an xfce desktop
[08:34] <ianubuntu> have a nice day people!
[08:34] <EdBoy> oh dear god
[08:34] <wimdows> ok - any easy way to have anonymous win XP clients write to a Samba share?
[08:34] <AlexC_> pngwen: as a matter of fact, there is
[08:34] <squidly> reset
[08:34] <EdBoy> 1000 people came back
[08:34] <AlexC_> pngwen: except it is  sudo apt-get install brains
[08:34] <stefg> pngwen: apt-get do-what-I'm-thinking is in alpha still, takes another 2 years of development time
[08:34] <squidly> stefg: reset. I dont have anytoher account on that box (and I have not used it for a while)
[08:34] <pngwen> lol
[08:34] <bbrazil> wimdows: guest=yes, writable=yes
[08:34] <Don> some one know a ubuntu christian edition
[08:34] <pngwen> ok, what would cause a package to not install one of its files, yet still declare success?
[08:35] <Don> i have a problem with my gdesklet
[08:35] <stefg> squidly: just add a new user, delete the old one
[08:35] <pngwen> I've never had a package give me this much trouble and I've been on debian based systems for years.
[08:35] <bbrazil> pngwen: an, conf files are special
[08:35] <BobbyBi> !ce-ubuntu
[08:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ce-ubuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:35] <dappis> Don: it's basically Ubuntu with added packages
[08:35] <BobbyBi> !ubuntu-ce
[08:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubuntu-ce - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:35] <Don> sorry
[08:35] <bbrazil> pngwen: either purge it an reinstall, or there's a dpkg option re. missing conf files
[08:35] <squidly> stefg: I cant get in to the box at all
[08:35] <Don> Sorry
[08:35] <travisb> how can I install php-pecl-fileinfo
[08:36] <wimdows> bbrazil - thanks, could it be "guest ok" same as for printers?
[08:36] <BobbyBi> www.distrowatch.?
[08:36] <stefg> squidly: so you have forgotten the password and cant log in?
[08:36] <squidly> yes
[08:36] <BobbyBi> don ^^
[08:36] <dappis> Ubuntu CE comes with bible-reading software and other stuff, directed for christians
[08:36] <bbrazil> wimdows: my recollection of samba is that there should be an = in there, but it has been a few years
[08:36] <squidly> the only account on the box I lost the password to
[08:36] <Frogzoo> mzanfardino: you've install w32codecs & libdvdcss2 ?
[08:36] <wimdows> bbrazil - yes, was talking about just the key, so the full line may then be "guest ok = yes"
[08:36] <claudio> hi guys  did anyone have  winex  allready compiled ???
[08:36] <mzanfardino> dappis: I'm trying to install the listed packages, but I'm getting an error from apt-get: Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:37] <Frogzoo> claudio: use wine
[08:37] <wimdows> bbrazil - thanks mate, I'll give it a try
[08:37] <stefg> squidly: boot in recovery mode, you'll be root. run 'passwd <username>' to give a new password
[08:37] <dappis> mzanfardino: you must enable/add medibuntu repositories
[08:37] <pngwen> I think whoever it is that maintains the vmware packages need to apt-get install brains.  This package isn't done well!
[08:37] <squidly> stefg: ok thanks
[08:37] <dappis> a quick "google" with keywords "ubuntu medibuntu repo feisty" could do the trick :)
[08:37] <mzanfardino> dappis: I have uncommented all repositories from sourcse.list.  How do I add medibuntu?
[08:37] <pngwen> of course that's in the multiverse, so it's not really ubuntu that's doing it.
[08:37] <bbrazil> pngwen: have you tried my suggestions?
[08:37] <dappis> !medibuntu
[08:37] <ubotu> medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/
[08:37] <claudio> i have  wine allready  but   y  read  on some place that wineX suport all activeX  from  Windows
[08:38] <pngwen> bbrazil: doing that now.
[08:38] <mzanfardino> dappis: nm. found site
[08:38] <claudio> i try crossover  but  runs soo bad
[08:38] <dappis> ok good
[08:38] <pngwen> btw, that didn't really purge the config files
[08:38] <stefg> claudio: wineX is deprecated and turned into cedega
[08:38] <pngwen> one still remains
[08:38] <mjr> claudio, incorrect, though some things that wine yet doesn't yes
[08:39] <bbrazil> pngwen: hmm, is it part of the package or created by the postinstall?
[08:39] <wimdows> bbrazil - I did make the changes, and restarted samba, but no luck - any other suggestions?
[08:39] <bbrazil> wimdows: security=shared
[08:39] <pngwen> bbrazil: it's created during the package setup script.
[08:39] <wimdows> bbrazil - cheers will add that ;-)
[08:39] <claudio> so  i read in cedega that i dan dounload the source CVS and compiled to run it  for  free
[08:40] <claudio> did you  knoe  how to do  that ?
[08:40] <bbrazil> wimdows: if that doesn't do it, I'm not sure what will. you'd want to read the docs on what that does
[08:40] <Frogzoo> anyone like to recommend a password manager ?
[08:40] <pngwen> bbrazil so the author was just too lazy to list it
[08:40] <bbrazil> pngwen: that's likely a bug in the packaging then
[08:40] <kestrel> Rebooted one of my machines and goes through grub fine then hangs mount / - the output of fdisk -L = "Disk /dev/hda doesn't contain a valid partition table". Any suggestions?
[08:40] <wimdows> bbrazil - actually, it already says: security = share at the top of the smb.conf
[08:40] <pngwen> bbrazil I know.
[08:40] <bbrazil> pngwen: no, there's reasons you don't want a config file to be actually in the package
[08:41] <qwertzpoiu> I made partitions, marked them as lvm (8E in cfdisk ) and then made pvcreate for each one ... no errors ..  now when I want to vgcreate space1 /dev/hde1 /dev/hdg1 /dev/hdi1
[08:41] <qwertzpoiu>    it says    /dev/hde1 not identified as an existing physical volume,     Unable to add physical volume '/dev/hde1' to volume group 'space1'.  ... huh?
[08:41] <bbrazil> pngwen: it's relatively rare, but it happens
[08:41] <pngwen> bbrazil: right, but when you build a pacakge, you typically want to make sure that it uninstalls completely.
[08:41] <BobbyBi> !ati
[08:41] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:41] <claudio> so at the end  what is  better   ceossover  or  wine ?
[08:41] <bbrazil> pngwen: typically, not always
[08:41] <wimdows> !samba
[08:41] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[08:42] <mzanfardino> claudio: I use wine quite successfully
[08:42] <bbrazil> wimdows: have you tried connecting with smbclient?
[08:42] <NBrepresent> is there a way to check which kind of memory I have from within ubuntu?
[08:42] <rollerskatejamms> Is it possible to run the ubuntu livecd completely out of ram like you can with knoppix?
[08:42] <Frogzoo> claudio: it's much the same thing, only crossover is supported
[08:42] <claudio> yes, wine works nice, but i want to get the best from my pc in games..
[08:42] <rollerskatejamms> NBrepresent, what model pc do you have
[08:42] <bbrazil> NBrepresent: lshw possibly
[08:43] <NBrepresent> it's a dell
[08:43] <rollerskatejamms> NBrepresent, A dell what?
[08:43] <wimdows> bbrazil - smbclient? No...do I install that on Win XP I guess...
[08:43] <NBrepresent> dell dimension 3000, sorry
[08:43] <rollerskatejamms> NBrepresent, I can tell you what you have hold on
[08:43] <bbrazil> wimdows: try it from the server running samba
[08:43] <mzanfardino> claudio: I only use wine to play wow and It is comperable to when I play it booted to windows.  I can't speak for other games.
[08:43] <n2diy> rollerskatejamms: yes, just boot from the CD
[08:43] <BobbyBi> pppoe_dude  must i install also gnome-desktop ?
[08:43] <wimdows> bbrazil - ah ok
[08:43] <NBrepresent> oh, well if you're just searching online then i can do that
[08:43] <claudio> oh
[08:43] <bbrazil> wimdows: if it works, that'd mean it's a windows or firewall issue
[08:43] <rollerskatejamms> n2diy, no, that runs apps off the disk
[08:43] <claudio> I try W3 in Wine.. and it works fine
[08:43] <rollerskatejamms> n2diy, I want to copy the whole disk to ram like you can with knoppix
[08:44] <rollerskatejamms> n2diy, knoppix's live cd has a toram boot flag
[08:44] <wimdows> bbrazil - so just browsing using smb:// you mean?
[08:44] <claudio> But, I cant wait for see how it runs in cedega :D
[08:44] <Enverex> claudio, Isn't that a waste of money?
[08:44] <rollerskatejamms> NBrepresent, you have ddr pc 3200
[08:44] <rollerskatejamms> NBrepresent, im not just searching. use crucial.com it will always tell you exactley what you have
[08:44] <claudio> yes, cause that i hadn't buy it..
[08:44] <n2diy> rollerskatejamms: Ok, wasn't familiar with that option, haven't played with Knoppix since 3.6
[08:44] <NBrepresent> thanks, rollerskatejamms
[08:44] <Fivetwentysix> I have a levelone wireless lan card in my PC and I can't get it working in ubuntu. It detects the router's in my home but when I connect to them nothing happens.
[08:44] <wimdows> bbrazil - apt-get installing smbclient now ;)
[08:45] <bbrazil> wimdows: that might do the trick, but smbclient is more 'raw' and likely to provide better errors and control
[08:45] <DinCahill> is there a command i can do to check if i have a certian package installed?
[08:45] <Fivetwentysix> What do I do?
[08:45] <bbrazil> DinCahill: dpkg -l packagename
[08:45] <claudio> anyone can run CS2 in Wine?
[08:45] <Fezzler> Right now I have Ubuntu on the main hard drive of my computer.  If I add a second drive to the computer, what would the path statement for command-line actions look like?
[08:46] <Enverex> Fezzler, Depends on if it's SATA, IDE or SCSI, also depends on how many partitions it has
[08:46] <dappis> also sudo aptitude search package
[08:46] <Enverex> Fezzler, and if it's before or after the other drive
[08:46] <Fezzler> For example, I can create a new directory by mkdir etc/new
[08:46] <Fezzler> IDE
[08:46] <kermitus> what no #ubuntu-seattle channel... that stinks...
[08:46] <DinCahill> bbrazil: i just downloaded gtklib-2.0.7, ran "./configure" and "make". how can i actually install it?
[08:46] <Enverex> claudio, Check the AppDB
[08:47] <recon> I'm trying to mount this USB drive of mine as a r/w. It doesn't. Does anybody know how?
[08:47] <wimdows> bbrazil - interesting, I don't have perms with the current user over smb:// either - so looks like a chmod 755 would sort it out?
[08:47] <Fezzler> Actually box says ATA.IDE
[08:47] <compengi> DinCahill, make install DEST=/your/directory/here/
[08:47] <claudio> AppDB whats that ?
[08:47] <DinCahill> compengi, does it matter where i stick it?
[08:48] <compengi> DinCahill, if you want to install it in a specific directory you should do that command
[08:48] <tannerld> When I start up Nautilus I get thsi message now: GConf error: Adding client to server's list failed, CORBA error: IDL:omg.org/CORBA/COMM_FAILURE:1.0
[08:48] <bbrazil> DinCahill: don't do that. Use the packages ubuntu provides
[08:49] <DinCahill> bbrazil: something else i'm trying to compile demands i have glib
[08:49] <bbrazil> wimdows: you'll need it writable by the 'guest user' settings
[08:49] <bbrazil> wimdows: 777 will work, usual warning apply
[08:49] <Fezzler> Let's start at the beginning.  I open my computer, install new hard drive as slave, boot Ubuntu.  What happens?  Does it find it and automatically format it, etc.?
[08:49] <claudio> Wine cant reproduce any Video from games?
[08:49] <hylje> claudio: some, not all
[08:49] <bbrazil> DinCahill: then install glib-dev
[08:49] <hylje> claudio: for instance world of warcraft cinematics work
[08:49] <DinCahill> bbrazil: will do
[08:49] <claudio> oh
[08:49] <dbernar1> where is the default xroot color set?
[08:49] <wimdows> bbrazil - ok , will try
[08:50] <claudio> Ok,,, maybe the MPQ, wine doesnt read
[08:50] <claudio> like blizzard games have MPQ videos format...
[08:50] <grurf> Hmmm... The ubuntu kernel seems to think my IDE harddrives are SCSI devices... Any ideas?
[08:50] <pepie34> est)ce que quelq'un qui possde une ati voudrait bien m'aider svp?
[08:50] <DinCahill> bbrazil: should that be on the official list? i cant find it there.
[08:50] <pepie34> excuse me worng channel
[08:50] <claudio> ok. pll thanks to all
[08:50] <feistyman> I can't get my dvd player to work. I have totem movie player and mplayer. Anyone have a suggestion?
[08:51] <claudio> cya's
[08:51] <bbrazil> DinCahill: it mightn't be the exact name of the package
[08:51] <stefg> !uuid | grurf: ubuntu now uses libata, see

[08:51] <Fezzler> What will happen when I install new 2nd drive
[08:51] <pepie34> dbernarl i know
[08:51] <bbrazil> DinCahill: but I know it's there somewhere, I don't have an ubuntu system to hand to check
[08:51] <dbernar1> pepie34: sorry, I scrolled up, and did not notice.
[08:51] <grurf> stefg: ok, will have a look
[08:51] <pepie34> i said "excuse me worng channel"
[08:51] <dbernar1> pepie34: right, my mistake.
[08:51] <DinCahill> bbrazil: there aren't any packages with glib in them. i'll check the 6.10 repository
[08:51] <dappis> it's "excuse me wrong channel"
[08:51] <stefg> Fezzler: you will have more space :-)
[08:52] <bbrazil> DinCahill: that's not right
[08:52] <Daverto> I need some help: I am trying to start up the ubuntu 7.04 disc that I ordered, and I reciece the following message: "[  191.728087]  ata2: port failed to respond (30 secs, Status 0xd8)" and "[  192.048007]  ata2.01: revalidation failed (errno=-5)". This happens in BusyBox. Can anyone help me?
[08:52] <bbrazil> DinCahill: try libglib...
[08:52] <pepie34> does someone with an ati card can help me?
[08:52] <godtvisken> Does anyone know how I can record video from my webcam?

[08:54] <WonderWal> hi there, i do "reboot" and ubuntu hangs on "Restarting system"
[08:54] <WonderWal> ?????????????????????
[08:54] <DinCahill> bbrazil: ok thanks that sorted it
[08:54] <Fezzler> ubotu: When I install 2nd hard drive and boot Ubuntu, will I be able to configure it etc. within GUI?
[08:54] <wimdows> bbrazil - yeah chmod 776 worked, not sure why just guest ok = yes and writable = yes didn't work on their own
[08:54] <DinCahill> bbrazil: i now need four other packages. time to go hunting again
[08:54] <PriceChild> WonderWal, it shouldn't do anything without a sudo
[08:54] <pepie34> Fezzler ubotu is a bot: not a human behind
[08:54] <WonderWal> PriceChild, I am root.
[08:55] <PriceChild> WonderWal, naughty :)
[08:55] <bbrazil> wimdows: normal unix premissions still apply
[08:55] <PriceChild> I don't know sorry
[08:55] <WonderWal> PriceChild, whatever.
[08:55] <Fezzler> ubotu: I have samba up and running and configured so now I'm setting up my Ubuntu <> Windows file server and media server
[08:55] <aoliax> hi i have automatix2 for feisty, and the update manager keeps wanting me to update to a newer version, but for edgy, any suggestions?
[08:55] <WonderWal> how do i remove acpi and apmd and alsa please?
[08:55] <PriceChild> Fezzler, ubotu is a robot
[08:55] <bbrazil> wimdows: 776 is an odd permission, that's the same as 770
[08:55] <stefg> Fezzler: you will need to partition and format it. gparted can help you with that
[08:55] <PriceChild> !automatix | aoliax
[08:55] <ubotu> aoliax: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:55] <recon> My USB drive seems to be full... however, it keeps saying "not enough space". df says that it's 100%, but the files in it doesn't add up to that much space.
[08:55] <tondar> hello all
[08:55] <grurf> stefg: I read the wiki page and now understand why the disks are seen as SCSI, but that doesn't solve my problem. The problem seems to be that the kernel is unable to read from the disks, i.e. it cannot read the partition table and thus cannot mount anything... :(
[08:56] <Checkka> Does anyone know the name of the package in synaptic that allows me to man linux libraries?
[08:56] <aoliax> !WorksForMe
[08:56] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[08:56] <AlexC_> recon: I had that problem, confused me to! clear the trash =)
[08:56] <nuked_omen> aoliax: automatix and ubuntu devs don't seem to get along
[08:56] <nuked_omen> aoliax: each one is flaming the other
[08:56] <pepie34> can i do thinks like !boot| pepie34

[08:58] <ubotu> Fezzler: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux

[08:59] <hetfield> does anybody know of a good alternative for Visual C++?(that works with gnome, of course)
[08:59] <Fezzler> stefg: I have Ubuntu running on a 20 gig hd with samba configured.  Now I want to install 2nd HD, 200gig, and have it serve as the file server
[08:59] <anyo> does anyone know how to install ubuntu from a USB flash stick ?
[09:00] <wimdows> bbrazil - found out 776 isn't good, though the write would work without the x...but doesn't seem to, so had to go for 777 in the end :-(
[09:00] <pepie34> hetfield? eclipse?
[09:00] <nuked_omen> hetfield: if no one answers, either no one knows or no one is free to answer you.. repeating the question won't do any good
[09:00] <hetfield> going to check it out; thanks
[09:00] <grurf> stefg: Something like " unknown partition table" and "ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/<a lot of characters> does not exist! Dropping to a shell!"
[09:00] <hetfield> sorry
[09:00] <stefg> Fezzler: so just mount it , say, in /srv and adapt your smb.conf / use the gui-tool to share it over the net
[09:01] <Fezzler> Stefg: So I have to A) install drive; B) Boot Ubuntu; C) Setup new drive; and D) redirect my smb.conf setup to the new drive
[09:01] <Daverto> bbrazil: I looked, and I sill get the error, an error that I get earlier thar that is "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off" This is still in busy box.
[09:01] <bbrazil> wimdows: look into the 'guest account' setting
[09:01] <_Alexandru> !kde
[09:01] <ubotu> KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu. To install from Ubuntu:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop , or see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE . Latest KDE version is 3.5.6 for Feisty and Edgy, and 3.5.5 for Dapper. See http://kubuntu.org for more information.
[09:01] <feistyman> I can't seem to play dvd's. Can anyone help?
[09:01] <gumpish> Anyone know how to use a password with spaces when connecting using lftp?
[09:01] <stefg> grurf: Hmmm, bad,.... was there anything important on that disk, of which you don't have a backup ? :-\
[09:01] <_Alexandru> !kubuntu
[09:01] <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
[09:01] <grurf> stefg: =)
[09:02] <bbrazil> Daverto: that error isn't an issue. You likely have faulty hardware
[09:02] <grurf> stefg: I think testdisk will be able to fix it anyway
[09:02] <grurf> stefg: And otherwise... I guess I'll be fine
[09:02] <stefg> grurf: that would have been my next comment
[09:02] <Fezzler> stefg: last Q.  Are the tools I need to format the 2nd drive available in GNOME or will I need to do it from command line?  Will I need root access?
[09:02] <grurf> stefg: I will try some other ways to access it, from other distro's and such
[09:02] <mbudde> What is the name of the font used in the Ubuntu logo?

[09:02] <ax> how do people do "realtime" with fiesty? realtime-lsm or is there some better way now?
[09:03] <nix> Hello everybody...
[09:03] <bbrazil> Daverto: does that boot okay?
[09:03] <Tantalus> Considering using Krusader & Quanta Plus in Gnome. Intend to install KDE-desktop, but will never access KDE. Even so, programs like Krusader should work with 100% functionality in Gnome. Am I correct?
[09:03] <Daverto> bbrazil: yes.
[09:03] <stefg> Fezzler: you can do it very easy from the command line, but if you need gui handholding you can use gparted.
[09:03] <nix> Tantalus: yes
[09:03] <stefg> !root | Fezzler
[09:03] <ubotu> Fezzler: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.

[09:03] <mocha> Hello.  Anyone know if the Twinhan 1022a DVB card works in Ubuntu?
[09:03] <Tantalus> Thanks!
[09:04] <nix> Tantalus: I think installing something like lib-kde should work
[09:04] <dasboot> could someone recommend a digital photo manager? it would need to be comatible with Flickr, and should be able to handle 2000+ pictures
[09:04] <Tantalus> cool
[09:04] <bbrazil> Daverto: sounds like either kernel differences, or you don't use this device from fedora
[09:04] <Rage__> Hi, how the heck does ubuntu know that one of the dirs on a mounted samba share is a symlink and how do I tell it to stop treating it like so?
[09:04] <nix> Tantalus: try install Krusader and install the relavant dependancies as well
[09:04] <Aidenn> hello
[09:05] <nix> Aidenn: Hello there..
[09:05] <Rage__> Or how do I stop the ubuntu server telling everyone that it is a symlink...?
[09:05] <Daverto> bbrazil: is there any way I'm going to be able to get ubuntu running with this?
[09:05] <bbrazil> Rage__: it's the unix extensions
[09:05] <Tantalus> nix: Thanks, I am doing it now
[09:05] <Aidenn> is there a way to enable direct rendering on second x screen? e.g. in user-switch.

[09:05] <SlimeyPete> tri3axe: Enemy Territory, Tremulous

[09:06] <SlimeyPete> Return to Castle Wolfenstein, and the Quake games also run
[09:06] <faemir> anyone know how to transfer an AVI movie onto an ipod? I have the AVI files ready but I don't think amarok can transfer them
[09:06] <nuked_omen> Doom also runs
[09:06] <Daverto> bbrazil: no I havent. Let me download it though, I do not have one on hand,
[09:06] <bbrazil> Rage__: unix extensions = no
[09:06] <tri3axe> nice
[09:06] <nuked_omen> nexuiz
[09:06] <Rage__> bbrazil: client or server?
[09:06] <faemir> alien shooter 2007
[09:06] <bbrazil> Rage__: either
[09:06] <Rage__> bbrazil: thanks :)
[09:07] <bbrazil> Daverto: if you have a bootable cd from any other distro it might be worth trying
[09:07] <Daverto> bbrazil: 6.06 is drapper right?
[09:07] <bbrazil> Daverto: yip
[09:07] <nix> right
[09:07] <Daverto> bbrazil: I will try it.

[09:20] <aeiko> Any suggestions?
[09:20] <stefg> grurf: no, that's a built in the kernel, afaik. Maybe you can tinker with the initramfs-tools to build a customized initrd
[09:20] <Jinchurei> answer - this is after the second time i tried that :)

[09:21] <digital_k> hello again all :)
[09:21] <pravinconda> can someone please help me set up my wireless
[09:21] <grurf> stefg: I think the problem is that the libata driver is not as tolerant about errors as the normal ide drivers, because there have been DriveReady SeekComplete errors in the dma_intr for over a year now, but the disk is still working perfectly, and the other distro's I have used simply report the errors and then go on booting happily

[09:42] <pravinconda> but my wireless
[09:42] <pravinconda> is not detected
[09:42] <noobdude> i didn't like the live cd
[09:42] <pravinconda> even ndiswrapper works properly when I type ndiswrapper -l
[09:42] <aeiko> bee667: Only error message I get is something about the fonts.
[09:42] <stefg> grurf: i see, so you seem to know pretty much what's going on. For my part i have a somewhat problematic DVD-Drive and have to use my own kernel anyway.... so it points in teh direction of kernel recompile
[09:42] <Answer> russe11, do you have feisty cd?
[09:42] <pravinconda> i see the driver and the card
[09:42] <noobdude> i used the command line one to install

[09:42] <pppoe_dude> any ideas why my speakers don't mute when i plug in my headphones to my laptop? i am using intel hda realtek 883 chipset, and i explored the HDAIntelSoundHowto in the forums

[09:42] <stefg> grurf: but see yourself which boot options you have: just give !boot to trigger the factoid from the bot

[09:42] <fumanju> hi, just wondering, is connecting to a remote ubuntu machine via SSH the same as using Terminal on that machine (in person)?
[09:42] <bee667> aeiko: if you are at the machine, you could try to see at /var/log/Xorg*.log ... see if you find one which matches the time when you started the machine
[09:42] <Answer> pravinconda, your wireless card is not recognized as a device.
[09:42] <pravinconda> no it is
[09:42] <stefg> fumanju: pretty much
[09:42] <pppoe_dude> fumanju, not exactly, but pretty much
[09:42] <pravinconda> because i did ndiswrapper -l and i see the driver and the card
[09:42] <Answer> pravinconda, if it doesn't show up in "ifconfig -a" then it is not added as an ethernet device
[09:42] <fumanju> ok, my box is behind a router, what port is the default port for OpenSSH?
[09:42] <Answer> fumanju, 22
[09:42] <pravinconda> but in ndiswrapper it seems to work perfectly
