[02:58] <hopender> serenityUK: CCP***
[02:58] <bruenig> nailhead33, you should use the repos, that is one of the greater advantages of linux distros over windows stuff
[02:58] <serenityUK> hopender, paster the exact error into google
[02:59] <ltar> bruenig: I can't get it to work. No such file or directory. I'm fairly certain i didn't mispell ~/desktop/test.txt
[02:59] <nailhead33> sorry, im such a noob at this
[02:59] <nickrud> Messiah, type ls -l /etc/sudoers ; that shows you the permission. It should look like-r--r----- 1 root root 546 2007-08-07 14:04 /etc/sudoers. You need to go back to recovery, change the permissions (0440) and look to be sure.
[02:59] <bruenig> ltar, Desktop not desktop
[02:59] <pedroVOX> nOOB is good..;-)
[02:59] <Babble_> ok I guess I just type X to test X in recovery mode.... so does that mean that gnome has a problem if it locks up when I don't boot in recovery mode from grub?
[02:59] <ltar> bruenig: case sensitver ?!?!   :'(
[02:59] <serenityUK> yes ltar
[02:59] <brandonperry> Babble_: startx, not x
[02:59] <bruenig> thankfully yes
[02:59] <m0u5e> anyone know how to use i855-crt ?
[03:00] <ltar> bruenig: jesus. Case sensitive. anyways, copied fine as root. why not with a GUI?
[03:00] <ltar> er, as standard user, I meant
[03:00] <bruenig> ltar, I can only help you as far as that is concerned, I am not really a gui person
[03:01] <ltar> well, thanks then
[03:01] <bruenig> you *should* be able to though

[03:01] <m0u5e> anyone know how to use i855-crt?
[03:01] <Messiah> nickrud:-r--r--r-- 1 root root 403 2007-08-29 03:16 /etc/sudoers
[03:01] <brandonperry> Soup_: not that I know of
[03:01] <m0u5e> anyone know how to use i855-crt? I'm trying to vga out to a TV
[03:02] <bruenig> ltar, that statement didn't make sense to me
[03:02] <serenityUK> ltar, root is there for a reason you can break your system
[03:02] <Soup_> will that setting stay now forever even when I reboot?
[03:02] <bruenig> Messiah, that is 444, it needs to be 440
[03:02] <brandonperry> Soup_: yeah
[03:02] <nickrud> Messiah, yes, that last r makes the file readable by anyone. That is what is a no no

[03:03] <ltar> new question: going from 1024x786 to 1280x1024 doesn't work quite right. Rather than change the resolution properly, it expands the image well outside the physical bounds of my monitor. wtf?
[03:03] <Justi1> I followed this howto http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout#See_Also and it messed everything up. anyone have advice on how to "undo" it?
[03:03] <Messiah> nickrud:so what i do?
[03:03] <Javid> Is there a way to tell the package managers to ignore an update on something?
[03:03] <bruenig> he chmod 777'd a disk and was wondering why nautilus wasn't letting him write to it

[03:05] <Justi1> I am seriously just going to reinstall ubuntu
[03:05] <nickrud> Messiah, relax a bit, it's new, but you'll get it down ;)
[03:05] <Messiah> nickrud:didnt you tell me that to do last time?
[03:05] <bruenig> Messiah, how did it get changed in the first place from 440?
[03:05] <advancedonsite> hi guys
[03:05] <nickrud> Messiah, yes, but most likely you made a typo. when you do it this time, do the ls -l and make sure it's -r--r----

[03:26] <ari_stress> morning
[03:26] <brandonperry> the .ico is in /usr/share I believe
[03:26] <penney> hey all. anyone know why libdvdcss isn't showing up on my apt repository list?
[03:26] <penney> is there maybe a suggested replacement
[03:26] <BlindSide> hey guys
[03:26] <penney> ?
[03:26] <Shadow6363> Trippen, have you tried configuring your xorg with sudo aticonfig?
[03:26] <BlindSide> it should be pretty easy getting the original half life to run using wine right
[03:27] <brandonperry> Messiah: like the guys before me have said, your modes are wrong
[03:27] <Grungebunny> penney I think its libdvdcss2 but I could be wrong
[03:27] <aleka> brandonperry: if you don't mind elaborating the .dektop idea, how do I 'make' one? sorry if this is a bother
[03:27] <nothingssomethin> you there shadow
[03:27] <Topham> can anyone please /Query me got a problem booting
[03:27] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, sorry, i too am reading the man page

[03:32] <yigal> serenityUK: my interest is to uninstall a virtual package which installs 150mb ammount of files, and install all the files unrelated to GNOME and leave all of the GNOME files uninstalled, as I don't use GNOME.
[03:32] <brandonperry> put that in the terminal
[03:32] <brandonperry> what prints out
[03:32] <Neoxygen> so is there a possibility to exctract on batch some .exe .rar .zip ?
[03:32] <Justi1> how do I execute a .run file from terminal?

[03:33] <nothingssomethin> SHADOW this is actually a zip file with multiple files in it is that fine
[03:33] <Azerial> Yes My harddrive is also SATA
[03:33] <Polygon89> Neoxygen, i dont think .exe because .exe is a windows executable.....
[03:33] <m0u5e> Siph0n: try toggling numlock :D
[03:33] <brandonperry> ok, ubuntu doesn't see your hard drive.
[03:33] <Azerial> a 320gb Seagate SATA3.0gb/s 7200rpm HD
[03:33] <brandonperry> so
[03:33] <Azerial> how the heck is that possible
[03:34] <serenityUK> yigal, hmm...  if you do apt-get install -s  somepackage it prints out the whole thing as if to install all dependencies etc but without actually downloading or installing... you will see a list
[03:34] <yigal> serenityUK: I guess what I am saying is I would prefer not to have to reinstall the packages.  I would prefer instead to know the packages I have installed and delete the packages with use in GNOME - I think I know how.
[03:34] <m0u5e> Neoxygen: if you use wine, you can run some .exe files
[03:34] <Azerial> How did it even Install if it cant SEE my HD
[03:34] <yigal> serenityUK: ok, ty
[03:34] <brandonperry> Azerial: reboot, see what happens
[03:34] <Neoxygen> i know mouse

[03:35] <Azerial> Ive rebooted several times since I installed LInux last night

[03:36] <brandonperry> Azerial: then all I can say is check your connections
[03:36] <Azerial> Oh the connections are fine
[03:36] <brandonperry> maybe a SATA cable is bad
[03:36] <Azerial> Im dual booting with XP

[03:37] <zaius> hi all, I'm getting this error when i do a hd-media install: "there was a problem reading data from the cd-rom. failed to copy file from the cd-rom. retry?". It only happens with the desktop iso (works fine with the server iso) and the md5s on the iso are fine.

[03:37] <Soup_> not graphics though
[03:37] <Soup_> all command line
[03:37] <brandonperry> Azerial: when you boot to the LiveCD, can you read the files on the cd?
[03:38] <Soup_> Im looking for a gui front end
[03:38] <brandonperry> Soup_: yeah, use the default archive manager
[03:38] <brandonperry> fileroller
[03:38] <Azerial> When I boot with the Live CD it works just fine
[03:38] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, fyi, i wont know you said something to me unless you type my whole name but as you suspected, im not sure how you could rejoin the files once in windows
[03:38] <Neoxygen> but the probleme is i have 150000 files in the same folder and i need to extract all the files
[03:38] <Azerial> thats how I installed LInux with a live cd
[03:38] <Soup_> it wont open rars
[03:38] <Soup_> i did it via command line
[03:38] <Soup_> but want a better way
[03:38] <brandonperry> Azerial: ok, then something must have gone wrong during install
[03:38] <GigaClon> Xero, gtkpod can't see it if the ipod isn't mounted on the system
[03:38] <brandonperry> Soup_: check out file-roller
[03:38] <nothingssomethin> yeah that's the thing
[03:38] <Azerial> So? Is there a fix or do I gotta reinstall?
[03:39] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, what i am thinking is to rar your zip file into a multivolume archive (2) and then store each part on a disc, then in windows, copy them to your hard drive and unrar them to get the zip, then unzip it to get your files
[03:39] <GigaClon> Azerial did you make only two partitions?
[03:39] <nothingssomethin> i'm going to windows with it
[03:39] <brandonperry> Azerial: looks like it
[03:39] <Azerial> I have a partition for XP, a Partition for Linux, a Swap partion, and 8mb unused
[03:39] <GuyFromHell> how to "dd" a partition to another partition, to do something like, i dunno, move windows from a logical partition over to a primary partition so i can actually get into it.
[03:39] <Xero> Why 8mb unused?
[03:39] <m0u5e> anyone here know how to vga out with a i8xx graphics card?
[03:39] <nothingssomethin> wait that's a perfict idea
[03:39] <GigaClon> are you on the live CD?
[03:39] <brandonperry> Xero: windows does that
[03:39] <Azerial> No
[03:39] <yigal> serenityUK: I just did a aptitude purge user-he <-- the virtual package and copied the files to be removed.  I made 2 seperate files, 1 with GNOME dependencies the other without.  I installed the ones with GNOME dependencies so they are automatically purged by apt and the I deleted the GNOME files.  A little work, but I hate GNOME - funny being in Ubuntu saying this but to me it is just too clumsy
[03:39] <m0u5e> Xero: used for cache on some HDs
[03:39] <nothingssomethin> raring will make it 2 files
[03:40] <Azerial> Im running LInux booted off my  hd,
[03:40] <yigal> serenityUK: s/installed/purged
[03:40] <zaius> has anyone here done a hd-media install before?
[03:40] <GigaClon> then what is the problem
[03:40] <Azerial> I cant use my CD/DVD Burner combo drive
[03:40] <nothingssomethin> how do you do that with lunix
[03:40] <yigal> serenityUK: I am also quite drunk so who knows what I have done
[03:40] <nothingssomethin> ubuntu
[03:40] <IndyLucian> Azerial, I have had a similiar problem during my first ever linux install about a year ago, which was Fedora Core. The only way I found to fix it was to just re-install over the partition.
[03:40] <Topham> can anyone help with mine?
[03:40] <Topham> I get these error lines(i think) when booting after install pasted at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36003/

[03:43] <nothingssomethin> Shadow6363 i thought rar was just like zip
[03:43] <yigal> serenityUK: nope :)
[03:43] <Siph0n> hey thanx brandonperry hehe :) that works! ;)
[03:43] <brandonperry> yup!
[03:43] <GigaClon> Xero, I can't use gtk-pod if the drive isn't mounted
[03:43] <MeRodent> Can anyone tell me how to fix the fact that I have to unlock the default keyring every time I log in?
[03:44] <serenityUK> yigal, have you tried fluxbox it's preey cool....
[03:44] <serenityUK> yigal, pretty*
[03:44] <brandonperry> I prefer XFCE
[03:44] <thatkid> I've tried to open stuff in my documents folder and i keep getting an error message saying that the file doesn't exist
[03:44] <yigal> serenityUK: I have tried fluxbox, and openbox both are nice, but DWM is so fast and responsive to my needs, pretty is in the eye of the beholder
[03:44] <thatkid> i've tried to open the folder all kinds of ways
[03:44] <gateshare> For some reason I can log in with X on one user and not another
[03:44] <brandonperry> thatkid: are they text files?
[03:45] <thatkid> all sorts of files
[03:45] <gateshare> gives me an error right after /etc/rc.local
[03:45] <thatkid> pdf, text
[03:45] <brandonperry> see if you can vim a text file
[03:45] <KevinOman> what command do I use to bring up firefox from command line if im ssh into another box?
[03:45] <gateshare> but I have nothing in /etc/rc.local
[03:45] <thatkid> i can take a screenshot of the error
[03:45] <serenityUK> yigal, no i meant pretty-cool as in quite...   yes I have server edition on my laptop for CLI only  :)
[03:45] <Javid> !internet
[03:45] <Topham> so no help for me atm?
[03:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about internet - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:46] <brandonperry> !women

[03:46] <brandonperry> haha
[03:46] <brandonperry> ok
[03:46] <GigaClon> ok my ipod is mounted as rw, but I still can't write files to it (its mounted to my user)
[03:46] <yigal> serenityUK: I use a full screen terminal with screen running constantly, I would use server edition but and its a big but, a virtual terminal is very slow I find vs. an X terminal is there a way around this?
[03:46] <KevinOman> if im connected to my server via ssh, how do I bring up a firefox window
[03:46] <thatkid> the only thing that i can think of that could have messed it up is that i made a copy of the folder and put it onto the panel
[03:46] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, are you trying to launch firefox to display on your local machine, but running from your remote server?
[03:46] <Xero> GigaClon, I have to run gtkpod as root.
[03:47] <IndyLucian> !hermaphrodites
[03:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hermaphrodites - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:47] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, use X forwarding...
[03:47] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, ssh -X user@sevrer_ip
[03:47] <serenityUK> yigal, so you must be in irssi..  i  hate the emacs shortcuts in screen i just use alt-f2-6  :P
[03:47] <Xero> !ipod
[03:47] <yigal> IndyLucian: thats hilarious
[03:47] <ubotu> For information on how to sync and add tracks to your iPod, see the guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IPodHowto See !rockbox for information on liberating your iPod
[03:47] <Xero> OMG it worked
[03:47] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab I tried that and its not working
[03:47] <serenityUK> yigal, i understand why screen is cool but i hate the emacs style
[03:48] <Xero> CLICK, GigaClon
[03:48] <IndyLucian> :D
[03:48] <Xero> CLICK and be free
[03:48] <yigal> serenityUK: yes, exactly irssi is very nice.  I have changed the keybindings, I am a vim user :)
[03:48] <Kr0ntab> is X forwarding on the server?  check out /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[03:48] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: I get an gtk error saying it cannot open display
[03:48] <Soup_> brandonperry I have that installed but I see no menu command for any of them
[03:48] <GigaClon> Xero I know how to use gtkpod, i just don't know how to get dang thing mounted
[03:48] <Soup_> I installed 7zip as well but do not see it in the menus
[03:48] <brandonperry> Soup_: vino?
[03:49] <Soup_> vino is working thanks
[03:49] <Xero> GigaClon, use gtkpod as root
[03:49] <GigaClon> Xero, iPod Database Import Failed: 'Failed to read from file '/media/ipod/iPod_Control/iTunes/Play Counts': Input/output error'
[03:49] <GigaClon> as root
[03:49] <Xero> I have to do it as Root.
[03:49] <brandonperry> vncviewer and vino-preferences are commands
[03:49] <brandonperry> vncviewer ip.to.vino.server
[03:50] <|neon|> question would using 2 hard drives on linux raid 0 yield better performance that using just one hard drive, the hard drives will be sata on either configuration thx
[03:50] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, is the variable in /etc/ssh/sshd_config "X11Forwarding" set to 'yes' ?
[03:50] <GigaClon> it can't even find /media/ipod but the file browser do
[03:50] <dutch> okay hey all
[03:50] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, what size does each part need to be?
[03:51] <jxxxt> Is there a gusty help chan yet??
[03:51] <yigal> serenityUK: you never answered my question :) is there a way to make a virtual terminal as a fast as lets say xterm for text?
[03:51] <brandonperry> can someone kick |neon|, he is asking the same question over and over
[03:51] <IndyLucian> Could someone refresh me on how I would export a list of all installed applications on a ubuntu installation so I could transport that list and feed it in to apt-get on another installation?
[03:51] <nickrud> jxxxt, #ubuntu+1
[03:51] <IndyLucian> I cannot remember the command for it
[03:51] <yigal> brandonperry: neon, thats a noble gass how could I
[03:51] <zaius> !hd-media
[03:51] <dutch> so is there an easy way to get DVD playback support up-and-running on feisty? i figured libdvdcss2 would do it, but its not even in my repositories
[03:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hd-media - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:51] <brandonperry> haha
[03:51] <serenityUK> yigal, what is slow about it?
[03:51] <jxxxt> nickrud, thx
[03:52] <Fusion_> hi. i recently uninstalled desktop effects to make way for compiz fusion and in the process also uninstalled ubuntu desktop. Will this be bad for me? thanks
[03:52] <yigal> serenityUK: if I cat a file, for instance, my virtual terminal lags a little, but on an x-terminal I don't have this problem
[03:52] <IndyLucian> Fusion_, you uninstalled gnome?
[03:52] <GigaClon> Fusion_, no its fine
[03:52] <brandonperry> Fusion_: ubuntu-desktop is a dummy package, so no
[03:52] <nothingssomethin> well
[03:52] <Fusion_> IndyLucian, no not gnome.
[03:53] <Faud> How do I open the file manager for WINE ?
[03:53] <nickrud> !libdvdcss | dutch (that's what you want, but you have to get it elswhere:)
[03:53] <ubotu> dutch (that's what you want, but you have to get it elswhere:): For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[03:53] <serenityUK> yigal, wow you would thing it's the other way around..
[03:53] <nothingssomethin> the tottal size is 1 gig and it needs to fit onto 2 cd's
[03:53] <nothingssomethin> or 3
[03:53] <Fusion_> GigaClon, what potential problems can i expect?
[03:53] <GigaClon> this makes no sense, mount says that the ipod is mounted rw but nothing can right to it
[03:53] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: yes it is set to yes
[03:53] <nothingssomethin> i have alot of cd's
[03:53] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: split didn't work?
[03:53] <yigal> serenityUK: I think it has to do with using the nvidia driver in X but not in a virtual terminal
[03:53] <GigaClon> Fusion_, its just a dummy package
[03:53] <Superkuh> I am having trouble with DNS resolution when I disable ipv6 (Ubuntu feisty, 2.6.20-16-generic x86_64). This is causing issues with multiple programs. I am not sure of the cause, but I have laid out the issues in detail here, as well as done some narrowing down. It is long. http://pastebin.ca/678550 I would appreciate any help narrowing it down further.
[03:53] <Kr0ntab> and does the server have X running on it?
[03:53] <GigaClon> Fusion ie nothing in it
[03:53] <eckse>  Hi, I'm running Kubuntu live and the board is on the fritz, I luckliy got it to POST but I can't access the Windows 2000 hard drive. I get this error when mounting. hal-storage-fixed-mount-all-options refused uid 999
[03:54] <serenityUK> yigal, oh so you have a 3D card but you use DWM lol
[03:54] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: nope its just ubuntu server
[03:54] <yigal> serenityUK: otherwise, other than use vimperator, firefox with vim bindings, I would be in a virtual terminal
[03:54] <brandonperry> eckse: what command are you using to mount
[03:54] <Fusion_> GigaClon, great! thanks
[03:54] <nothingssomethin> brandonperry i need to rejoin the file on windows
[03:54] <yigal> serenityUK: absolutely, 3d sucks if one wants to think and get things done
[03:54] <Kr0ntab> you need to have X running on the server.  :-)
[03:54] <GigaClon> this makes no sense, mount says that the ipod is mounted rw but nothing can write to it
[03:54] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: you can use copy to join 2 files
[03:54] <KevinOman> is that a package I have to install Kr0ntab
[03:55] <nothingssomethin> ?
[03:55] <eckse> brandonperry: I am just right-clicking the drive and choosing mount. opening it gives me the same thing. the file explorer says it is 0 bytes but knows the name of the drive. it should be ntfs
[03:55] <nothingssomethin> in windows
[03:55] <Kr0ntab> correct...
[03:55] <brandonperry> eckse: mkdir mnt ; sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/<hard drive> ./mnt
[03:55] <dutch> nickrud: thanks a ton man, i will try this
[03:55] <yigal> serenityUK: i don't have a powerhouse 1.7ghz 1mb ram but i bought a gpu nvidia fx5200 to play movies
[03:55] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: yes, copy in windows will join the two files
[03:56] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: is what I need called xinit?
[03:56] <nothingssomethin> eckse did you use a bios hard drive password before ? if you did it won't let you touch it
[03:56] <serenityUK> yigal, have you got a framebuffer installed ... can you see graphics in text mode?
[03:56] <sal002> Is there a channel for 7.10 Tribe?  I had a general question about title bars not appearing when I enable desktop effects
[03:56] <Shadow6363> brandonperry, wish i would have known about copy earlier...
[03:57] <brandonperry> Shadow6363: ;-)
[03:57] <Shadow6363> nothingssomethin, looks like brandon got your answer
[03:57] <nothingssomethin> brandonperry how do you use split
[03:57] <eckse> it says the drive is mounted now, brandonperry and nothingsomthin, but now i get "Cannot enter folder /home/ubuntu/mnt"
[03:57] <yigal> serenityUK: yes, but it doesn't seem to work as well as X?
[03:57] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, just install xserver-xorg metapackage...
[03:57] <nothingssomethin> i can't get the paramaters dows
[03:57] <eckse> maybe i should put kubuntu?
[03:57] <nothingssomethin> down
[03:57] <brandonperry> eckse: sudo su ; cd ./mnt
[03:58] <masss> do you know if you can use divx stage6 directly with ubuntu, or a special codec is needed ?
[03:58] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: try just split file
[03:58] <serenityUK> yigal, well you have cut n paste in X too so it's worth is anyway
[03:58] <nothingssomethin> brandonperry can you give me a command line for split
[03:58] <brandonperry> yeah
[03:58] <eckse> the file explorer still gives me the error brandon perry, do i have to do this with terminal? :o
[03:58] <nothingssomethin> an example
[03:58] <yigal> serenityUK: with screen there is cut and paste, did you know this?
[03:58] <nothingssomethin> of some sort
[03:58] <brandonperry> split file.ext
[03:58] <brandonperry> just try that
[03:58] <serenityUK> yigal, ok so in screen....
[03:59] <brandonperry> the default is two I think
[03:59] <nothingssomethin> that will be enugh
[03:59] <serenityUK> yigal, when I view an RSS feed in raggle  can I follow the link and launch it in links2  ?
[03:59] <Ashfire908> what GNOME media players are there for video
[03:59] <greentea_> I need a program for recovering stuff in harddrive
[03:59] <nothingssomethin> npw i must add that i am spliting a zip file that will still work?
[03:59] <brandonperry> yeah
[03:59] <brandonperry> as long as you join them correctly with copy
[04:00] <brandonperry> it is all just binary data
[04:00] <eckse> (mistyped your name, sorry) the file explorer still gives me the error brandonperry, do i have to do this with terminal? :o
[04:00] <brandonperry> yeah
[04:00] <brandonperry> terminal
[04:00] <serenityUK> yigal,  raggle is nice and links2 is nice but i haven't joined the two....   when in X raggle with lanuch firefox but I haven't done it in screen
[04:00] <greentea_> Is there a program for recovering a harddrive
[04:00] <Enul> what is dapper?
[04:00] <P_Kable> how can I create an iso from a CD in command lines please ?
[04:00] <yigal> serenityUK: its true though I like to use vimperator, firefox with vim keybindigs, when w3m doesn't properly load a page, no, but copy the link and launch it.  Is there a better way ?:)
[04:01] <eckse> brandonperry: how do I list the files in the directory of the drive and copy them?
[04:01] <greentea_> Is there a program for recovering a harddrive?
[04:01] <greentea_> Anyone ?
[04:01] <Shadow6363> anyone recommend tetex or textlive more than the other?
[04:01] <KevinOman> Kr0ntab: I installed xserver-xorg, do I need to install metapackage as well?
[04:02] <yigal> serenityUK: I have to install raggle, geese it sounds nice
[04:02] <serenityUK> yigal, raggle nice is a RSS reader for screen written in ruby
[04:02] <brandonperry> eckse: ls to list cp -R ./* to copy
[04:03] <yigal> serenityUK: its installed, you have liked it except for this problem of launching firefox instead of links2
[04:03] <yigal> serenityUK: ?
[04:03] <serenityUK> yigal, raggle can launch a link in firefox when using xterm  but when im in CLI im a screen n00b, it's written for screen so i should be able to use links2 all from the console without X
[04:04] <fulio> should i download compiz fusion?
[04:04] <Kr0ntab> KevinOman, xserver-xorg is a metapackage...  try running firefox...

I vaguely remember a command that would export a list of all installed packages to a file and then you would feed that file in to apt-get on the other machine.
[04:09] <Rogue-3> Bus 006 Device 004: ID 413c:8104 Dell Computer Corp. is the corresponding line i believe as its a dell wireless adaptor
[04:09] <fulio> what was the channel agn for fusion?

[04:18] <nothingssomethin> could i just enter that dir and put in the command with the filename
[04:18] <Esteth> how can i add google to deskbar like yahoo?

[04:20] <z0rz> If I have ICS configured properly on this computer then I should be able to share my wireless by simply telling my dhcp server to give out this computer's ip as the default gateway instead of my router (which is down)
[04:20] <z0rz> right?
[04:20] <eckse> I can't change directory down into my NTFS drive. cd /"Documents and Settings" gives me so such file or dir, i tried the full directory name and it wouldn't go.

[04:21] <TwinX> ltar to pastebin
[04:21] <brandonperry> eckse: you should look into ntfs-3g
[04:21] <brandonperry> otherwise, all your stuff will need to be done as root
[04:21] <sonnyT> No. imbecile
[04:21] <eckse> brandonperry how would i do that on kubuntu live?
[04:21] <brandonperry> sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g
[04:21] <TwinX> ltar paste the contents  here ; http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[04:21] <brandonperry> and mount -t ntfs-3g instead of just ntfs
[04:21] <eckse> ok
[04:22] <yigal> yes, thats pretty interesting meeting another person, randomly, who also has a certain proclivity to CLI :)
[04:22] <eckse> kouldn't find package brandonperry
[04:22] <ltar> TwinX: http://pastebin.com/m631c5d83

[04:23] <sparklehistory> fulio: check if you have it set to use white text on white background
[04:23] <serenityUK> yigal, vnstat is a great way to monitor you bandwith consumption if the isp is angry..   i can run  vnstat -m   and it shows how many GB i have d/l in past few months... it's very lightweight
[04:23] <ltar> Twinx: I can select 1280x 1024 just fine, but it renders outside of my monitor. like it keeps rendering at 1024x786, as though I were viewing an image larger than my screen resolution
[04:23] <TwinX> ltar are u sure  you're using 24 bit ?
[04:23] <TwinX> oh
[04:23] <fulio> sparklehistory, where can i check that?
[04:23] <Evil_Ed> hello

[04:26] <Azerial> Can somebody Help me get my SATA Cd burner/DVD burner Combo Drive Working.  It works fine in XP Pro, but on Ubuntu 7.04 it will not work at all, Its like it does not exist!
[04:27] <ltar> TwinX: no, it's standard 4:3

[04:28] <eckse> ahh
[04:28] <serenityUK> yigal, so you can cut/paste between different applications?
[04:28] <ltar> TwinX: You're amazing.

[04:30] <ltar> TwinX: when it displays everything twice, shifted a little? I think I had that problem with my sister's rig
[04:30] <Kr0ntab> MM at bottom of the bars means it muted...
[04:30] <mot> how does one add users to the sudoers file so i can install packages? =)
[04:30] <Strav> TwinX, don't have alsaconf
[04:31] <Strav> have alsactl alsamixer and alsaplayer (not relevant)
[04:31] <brandonperry> imbecile: try it and find out ;-)

[04:31] <eckse> brandonperry, now I try what command? ntfs-3d mount sda1 ??
[04:31] <TwinX> Strav^^
[04:31] <Kr0ntab> Strav, did you run alsamixer?

[04:31] <Strav> Kr0ntab, yes
[04:31] <Kr0ntab> and are the channels muted?

[04:32] <brandonperry> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 ./mnt
[04:32] <Azerial> Can Somebody Help me PLEASE!  I have a serious problem with my hardware and LInux!
[04:32] <Palintheus> !effects | imbecile
[04:32] <ubotu> imbecile: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[04:32] <Strav> here the sound system is different than what I have in the volume control gui
[04:32] <yigal> serenityUK: I created a dbase for vnstat :)
[04:32] <Kr0ntab> how many sound cards you have?
[04:32] <_cms> Hello. I'm installing 7.04 right now using the standard graphical installer, and gotten past the confirmation screen. However the "Installing system" window does not have the progress bar, and is nearly as small as a window can be (just a small gray square). It is not resizable. How might I be able to check the progress?
[04:33] <imbecile> serenityUK:  thanks
[04:33] <Strav> Kr0ntab, lspci tells only one sb live! card
[04:33] <serenityUK> yigal, i think it crons the data 5min intervals incase you crash .. you can problalbe relax it i never tried
[04:33] <brandonperry> _cms: you need to restart it
[04:33] <brandonperry> ie the cd
[04:33] <brandonperry> reboot
[04:33] <Strav> Kr0ntab, now alsamixer gives me an intel thing.
[04:33] <brandonperry> I guess is what I ma tryng to say
[04:33] <Pelo> _cms, dbl click the title bar
[04:33] <sparklehistory> mot: very very carefully.  Always use the 'visudo' command, as it will verify your syntax before saving, to make sure you don't totally screw it up.  A quick google usually turns up a few good results (I don't have my bookmarks handy).
[04:33] <eckse> how do I change the permissions of a drive? that would help me a lot, it is for drive sda1
[04:33] <brandonperry> Pelo: it isn't that I don't think
[04:33] <brandonperry> eckse: what do you mean?
[04:34] <Strav> Kr0ntab, while I did set my card to sb live via the volume control gui
[04:34] <Pelo> brandonperry, it'S worth a shot
[04:34] <mot> sparklehistory, it told me permission denied
[04:34] <brandonperry> if you mounted in your home dir, you should have permissions
[04:34] <_cms> brandonperry, it seems to be working on it (much cd and hard drive light flashing)
[04:34] <sparklehistory> mot: It will need to first be modified by someone who already has sudo rights.
[04:34] <brandonperry> _cms: I know, it did that to me before
[04:34] <brandonperry> I had to reboot it
[04:34] <brandonperry> it never finished
[04:34] <Azerial> Somebody out there Please answer me.  My CD/DVD combo drive IS not working with Linux!   I need to make it work!
[04:34] <eckse> brandonperry, kubuntu sees the drive just fine in the file browser, size and all. i just have no permissions. if i can change those permissions in the terminal with su, i can get the files i need graphically instead of with commands
[04:34] <brandonperry> eckse: sudo chmod -R 777 ./mn
[04:34] <brandonperry> ./mnt*
[04:35] <_cms> thanks, brandonperry. i'll go for it. it has been running for a while.
[04:35] <Pelo> Azerial,  define not working ?
[04:35] <serenityUK> yigal, i like to run it with the  -m   switch to see  GB/month  but you need to dl something first won't work on 0 data
[04:35] <Kr0ntab> the wrong card may be selected for use... I would check all the channels to ensure they're not muted.. and disable any on board cards from bios if you have one..
[04:35] <Strav> Kr0ntab, man alsamixer says I can specify my card via -c and entering a number. Where should I get the number list?
[04:35] <Azerial> As in It does not work peroid, cant read cds, cant read dvds, it dosent even exist to linux basicaly
[04:35] <Kr0ntab> from within alsamixer...
[04:35] <Kr0ntab> hit F2
[04:35] <yigal> serenityUK: perhaps its time for a divx movie to entertain my senses :)
[04:35] <Pelo> Azerial, open , menu , places,  my computer ,  see if it is listed
[04:36] <Azerial> There is a CD-ROM 1 listed and thats not it
[04:36] <Pie-rate> i think i may be rooted. i have a user "nobody"
[04:36] <zaius> do i end up with the same thing if i install from the alternate iso instead of the desktop iso?
[04:36] <Kr0ntab> Strav, you can also cat /proc/asound/cards
[04:36] <serenityUK> yigal, ah that is what rtorrent is for lol

[04:40] <Strav> Kr0ntab, may I ask: how to unmute a channel (here tone is muted, I thought perhaps..)
[04:40] <yigal> serenityUK: ok i'll have to check it out :)
[04:40] <eckse> no that finished, but it still doesn't allow me access brandonperry
[04:40] <Pie-rate> here's grep nobody auth.log: http://pastebin.ca/678589 a lot of it is failed login attempts, but its the stuff in auth.log.0 that worries me.
[04:40] <Strav> (I'm used to the volume ctler)
[04:40] <Pie-rate> actually the stuff in auth.log
[04:40] <eckse> brandonperry: fuse: failed to access mountpoint ./mnt: No such file or directory
[04:40] <brandonperry> oh
[04:41] <Pie-rate> "Successful su for nobody by root," for example
[04:41] <brandonperry> are you in  the original directory that your created the mnt folder in?
[04:41] <nalioth> !tell Azerial about paste
[04:41] <serenityUK> greentea_, if you have enabled the restricted drivers in System->Admin->Restricted drivers... you can run  gksu nvidia-settings   to set up you resolution
[04:41] <brandonperry> !paste
[04:41] <Azerial> wtf just happened?
[04:41] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:41] <masss393> hey guys, since i installed ubuntu 7.04, my ventilator is running non stop, making an anoying noise, i have a AMD Sempron (tm) processro 3000+, someone has an idea ??
[04:41] <greentea_> twinx do you know the command go straight to the settings for nvida card
[04:41] <jrib> Azerial: do *not* paste in the channel.  use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org as ubotu has told you multiple times before...
[04:41] <Azerial> Well How was I supposed to know that?
[04:41] <Azerial> Im a newbie here
[04:41] <sparklehistory> Azerial: by reading the topic.
[04:41] <greentea_> serenityUK thanks
[04:42] <serenityUK> greentea_,     gksu  nvidia-settings
[04:42] <onats> hi, when i ssh into a machine, how do i copy/get folders from that machine?
[04:42] <brandonperry> haha, ok eckse I am going to post a really long command ok?
[04:42] <serenityUK> greentea_,     but you need the nvidia driver installed
[04:42] <Azerial> .... You guys dont have to go booting people like that its rude
[04:42] <Pelo> Azerial, don't worry about it, too much,  some ppl are lagging a bit and they just saw it,  now you know
[04:42] <Kr0ntab> Strav, sorry for delay...
[04:42] <onats> ssh questions?
[04:42] <nalioth> Azerial: one should pay attention to lines of text with their nicks in it
[04:42] <Strav> found it
[04:42] <Kr0ntab> arrow to right and left to select channel...  hit letter "m" to toggle mute
[04:42] <nalioth> Azerial: and also their private messages
[04:42] <Strav> thanks anyways
[04:42] <Strav> (for the unmute)
[04:42] <bwlang> masss393: perhaps the power saving code is not loaded... i believe  it's called powernow-k8

[04:42] <serenityUK> greentea_,     press the button to save the changes to xorg.conf afterwards so it will stay after reboot
[04:42] <rcy> Hi.  I'm relatively new to ubuntu, 7.04 is the first version I've tried.  I'm curious if there is a reason to use automatix since there is the restricted modules repository in the ubuntu archives
[04:43] <brandonperry> cd ; rm -rf mnt ; mkdir mnt ; sudo umount /dev/sda1 ; sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 ./mnt
[04:43] <Strav> let me see...
[04:43] <brandonperry> eckse: ^^^
[04:43] <masss393> bwlang    how can i enable it then ?
[04:43] <nalioth> !tell rcy about automatix
[04:43] <eckse> brandonperry ok i'm back, sorry phone
[04:43] <Pie-rate> ls
[04:43] <brandonperry> 'tis ok
[04:43] <Pie-rate> grr
[04:43] <Pelo> Azerial, I don't know what to tell yo abotu your problem  check in the forum , do a search for  cdrom not listed  or something see what comes up ,   www.ubuntuforums.org
[04:43] <beerfan> what's the package name to install kde in Ubuntu? thought it was kde-desktop or something
[04:43] <nalioth> rcy: short answer, you'll destroy your system with automatix  (read what ubotu sent ya :)  )
[04:43] <Azerial> Ive done the forumes
[04:43] <bwlang> masss393: first have a look at the modules installed in your kernel with 'lsmod | grep power'
[04:43] <Azerial> I started a thread last night
[04:43] <Ninja> kubuntu-desktop
[04:43] <Azerial> Nobody has helped m yet
[04:43] <eckse> brandonperry should i do this as root?
[04:43] <Azerial> I started a thread on techspot too and nobody has helped me
[04:44] <brandonperry> eckse: that command cd's to your home dir, deletes a mnt if it exists, creates it, unmounts sda1 and mounts it in mnt
[04:44] <eckse> brandonperry i am su right now in 1 terminal
[04:44] <zaius> can someone tell me what the difference between alternate and desktop isos is?
[04:44] <brandonperry> no
[04:44] <beerfan> thanks Ninja
[04:44] <Pelo> Azerial, I meant do a search ,  for stuff that might already be there
[04:44] <bwlang>  masss393: if that returns nothing try running sudo modprobe powernow-k8
[04:44] <Azerial> Pelo: is it such a hard thing to make LInux recongize my CD Drive?
[04:44] <Ninja> no problem
[04:44] <Azerial> I did
[04:44] <Azerial> like a 5 times
[04:44] <Azerial> and googled it
[04:44] <Pelo> Azerial,  and check in menu > system > prefs > hardware info  see if the cd is listed
[04:44] <Kr0ntab> zaigon, alternate is simply a text based installer... desktop is the live cd.. with optional install via GUI
[04:44] <Azerial> No luck at all
[04:44] <Kr0ntab> zaius, , alternate is simply a text based installer... desktop is the live cd.. with optional install via GUI
[04:44] <nickrud> zaius, live is something you can run to see ubuntu; alternate installs successfully on more machines
[04:45] <Andrew_1> Has anyone been able to build pidgin 2.1.1 successfully on Feisty (7.04)
[04:45] <Pelo> Azerial, usualy the cd drivers get recognised automaticaly , your's is an execptionnal case
[04:45] <Azerial> Pelo: Where?

[04:45] <brandonperry> Andrew_1: do you have the dev files?
[04:45] <Azerial> Where is menu>system prefs>
[04:45] <eckse> brandonperry i did the command, i saw a fuse error, i'm gonna retry in a fresh terminal
[04:45] <Kr0ntab> zaius, no...
[04:45] <nickrud> zaius, no, wish it did
[04:45] <Andrew_1> My version of libxml2 is 2.6.27
[04:45] <Azerial> I dont know my way around linux just yet
[04:45] <brandonperry> ok
[04:45] <zaius> right. think i've found my problem then
[04:45] <masss393> bwlang   it says http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36004/
[04:45] <brandonperry> what was the error?
[04:45] <zaius> thanks
[04:46] <eckse> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ fuse: failed to access mountpoint ./mnt: No such file or directory
[04:46] <nothingssomethin> brandon
[04:46] <Andrew_1> The error I'm getting is that pidgin should be >= 2.6.0

[04:46] <nickrud> eckse, drop the period in front of /mnt
[04:46] <ltar> I installed beryl, but can't initialize it. I remember I used to have a program in my launcher bar to switch between beryl, metacity, and compiz. what do I need to install, still?
[04:47] <Andrew_1> brandonperry, yes I have the dev files.
[04:47] <nalioth> ltar: join #ubuntu-effects
[04:47] <beerfan> Andrew_1: http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1307
[04:47] <eckse> yea, i hit enter after that and it said bash: fuse:: command not found  brandonperry
[04:47] <Andrew_1> I'm going to try getdeb.net and see how that goes.
[04:47] <Azerial> Pelo: what exactly am I looking for in there?
[04:47] <nothingssomethin> do i highlight both files and click copy  or do i drag one file into the other???
[04:47] <Andrew_1> Thanks beerfan for the link :)
[04:47] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: hold on
[04:47] <brandonperry> eckse: hold on
[04:47] <nothingssomethin> ok
[04:47] <Strav> Kr0ntab, now that everyting is set to sb live, I went to the sound parameters in system/preferences/sound and if I choose alsa as my playback, when testing, I get the error: "audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Resource busy or not available.", perhaps it is linked to my problem since the only time I could have managed to get sound lately was by reinstalling the alasa libs and tools.
[04:48] <Pelo> Azerial, a listing for your cdrom driver  donT ask me for specifics , too many possiblitiles,  expand the tree as you go  try to see if you can find it
[04:48] <TwinX> ltar do u have beryl packages in synaptic?
[04:48] <eckse> brandonperry: ok, tell me when ur ready, i think it worked this time, i tried both with and without the period and got diffrent results
[04:48] <fulio> whats the command to edit files in /etc/
[04:48] <bwlang> masss393: hmm - looks like you have the proper module loaded...  have a glace at  cat /devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor -- should be 'ondemand'
[04:48] <Pelo> Azerial,  this is to try and figure out if ubu actualy sees it , and just doesnt, want to use it
[04:48] <Siph0n> vi? sudo vi ?
[04:48] <sparklehistory> fulio: gksu gedit /etc/file

[04:49] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: go here http://abmefaq.net/Join.html and about halfway down it shows you how to join the files
[04:49] <brandonperry> eckse: it worked?
[04:49] <Azerial> It seems like it does not exist to LInux
[04:49] <Pelo> Azerial, mine is listed somewhere under  82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) IDE Controller
[04:49] <masss393> bwlang   it says no such file or directory lol
[04:50] <eckse> brandonperry: it said this without the period: umount: /dev/sda1: not mounted
[04:50] <bwlang> masss393: that should say /sys/... sorry
[04:50] <eckse> brandonperry: it went to a new line with the period

[04:53] <masss393> bwlang   it says fan                     5636  0
[04:53] <Pelo> Azerial, anything starting with /dev  ? or /tty ?
[04:53] <Azerial> Pelo: No
[04:53] <eckse> brandonperry it is workging! thanks so much! i thought i almost lost my source code, phew
[04:53] <|neon|> question would using 2 hard drives on linux raid 0 yield better performance that using just one hard drive, the hard drives will be sata on either configuration thx
[04:53] <brandonperry> haha, de nada
[04:53] <eckse> brandonperry: de nada? ;)
[04:54] <Pelo> Azerial, in the second tab under block device , first line
[04:54] <brandonperry> uh, no problem
[04:54] <nothingssomethin> brandon rember i split a 7zip file
[04:54] <brandonperry> yeah
[04:54] <beerfan> neon, raid0 is always faster than single drive
[04:54] <brandonperry> did you not get my message?
[04:54] <nothingssomethin> i don't see that method
[04:54] <advancedonsite> #infoanarchy
[04:54] <brandonperry> nothingssomethin: are you on windows now?
[04:54] <Azerial> Pelo, "Block device?"
[04:54] <fulio> guys when ever i enable my desktop effects, my terminal turns white and im not able to close windows or rezise it or drag it, but when i enable it its all back to normal again
[04:54] <Azerial> what do you mean?
[04:54] <nothingssomethin> yes
[04:55] <brandonperry> click start > run> type cmd
[04:55] <brandonperry> press enter
[04:55] <bwlang> masss393: on my system i can control the van via  a program... is there something you can use in /proc/acpi/fan to control the speed.  If not, I'm stumped.
[04:55] <nothingssomethin> ok note that i am a windows tech
[04:55] <nothingssomethin> did that
[04:55] <Pelo> Azerial, when you select the cdrom drive , in the list on the left side,  you get spec on the right site,  there are tabs at the top of the right side,   one is advance,   the first line is block device
[04:55] <brandonperry> haha, ok
[04:55] <TwinX> advancedonsite=>  could be E-FancyLauncher  , not sure.
[04:55] <masss393> bwlang  so what command should i pass
[04:56] <brandonperry> http://abmefaq.net/Join.html#PermanantJoin   <--go here, it tells you how to join the files with the copy command
[04:56] <brandonperry> It has been a while since I used i, so I don't want to tell you something wrong and you lose your data
[04:56] <bwlang> masss393: ls /proc/acpi/fan  - maybe there's a file in there you can modify to control the fan
[04:56] <advancedonsite> ok cool
[04:56] <Azerial> Pelo Wait, on the thing where it says compatable cd rom port, there was something listed under it of same thing
[04:56] <Azerial> *of same name
[04:56] <masss393> bwlang   i listed it and there is FN00
[04:57] <Pelo> Azerial, is this a usb drive ?
[04:57] <Azerial> I clicked that, and I see under the advanced tab something that reads linux.device_file string /dev/ttySO
[04:57] <Azerial> No its internal SATA
[04:57] <bwlang>  masss393: list all the files in that tree - (find /proc/acpi/fan/
[04:57] <Azerial> its the only Disk drive I have on this computer
[04:58] <Azerial> thats why its so important I get it working
[04:58] <Pelo> Azerial, ok that's good to know sata might be the problem , I've heard things,  I don't remember them but I've heard them
[04:58] <|neon|> so 2 raptors sata drives will be faster than one single sata drive????
[04:58] <Pauli> hello world
[04:58] <Azerial> Well my SATA harddrive works just fine
[04:58] <[Lucian] > Does Ubuntu have a PowerPC distro?

[05:01] <allic> elo everyone.. just a simple Q....i mount a external harddisk to ubuntu... but i cant create folder or paste anything to the new mounted harddisk...how to go abt it?
[05:01] <brandonperry> [Lucian] : if you have a keyboard for your PS3, then yeah
[05:02] <beerfan> [Lucian] : live cd is easiest
[05:02] <Pelo> Azerial, in this thread they suggest getting the gutsy kernel and using that
[05:02] <serenityUK> |neon|, i think the issue with raid is access time to very small files,  the raptors have a very low latency which will loose a little with any raid setup  but it will be faster for copying big files etc... if you ran a big webserver with lots of little accesses you might want to skip it but for home use raid should be quick
[05:02] <|neon|> Azerialiam not saying your should work but what is the model
[05:02] <[Lucian] > im just going to use my usb keyboard from my pc
[05:02] <VonGuard> allic: new disk must be a weird filesystem for your install, like HFS or something
[05:02] <LadyNikon> PPPP: super karamba

[05:04] <z0rz> hopenderpro: Yeah, and unfortunatly I'm not z0rzpro yet.. so you'll have to ask a pro ;)
[05:04] <bwlang> masss393: cat /proc/acpi/fan.../state  (didn't follow that path)  i bet it says enabled  - you could turn off the fan, but you risk overheating.  on my laptop, the speed is automatically set according to how hot the cpu is...
[05:05] <hopenderpro> xD
[05:05] <Pelo> allic, stuck how ?
[05:05] <[Lucian] > virii is one of the main reasons i converted from wincrap
[05:05] <serenityUK> hopenderpro, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:05] <beerfan> allic: if you plan to reinstall windows after it hosed your computer...why are you here asking for help? :-)
[05:05] <serenityUK> hopenderpro, you need that to build programs
[05:05] <allic> stuck as in i cant copy anything from my old harddisk to my external hdisk...

[05:06] <Azerial> yes
[05:06] <Pelo> k
[05:06] <bwlang> masss393: i think there's a fancontrol script in the lmsensors package, but to do it manually you could do something like this (as root) echo 0 > /proc/acpi/.../fan/.../state
[05:06] <raynerd> guys, just downloaded new apps, quite a few and I cant see any of them in the menu. I mean i cant run any! Apparently using Kubntu there is a K app finder, is there anything for KNOME? Be easy, nooby linux user
