[02:26] <bruenig> because if that mpeg was not formatted right, you would have erred and therefore not gotten an iso
[02:26] <hendaus_> bruenig,  no i del it
[02:26] <IcemanV9> mhfs: gnomebaker
[02:26] <ChrisF-> ravi_master: Yeah, tried that
[02:26] <ech1> quick question - I am trying to execute a dedicated ventrilo server with "./ventrilo_srv" but it gives an error saying it cannot find the file. I just reinstalled ubuntu, and had fixed this problem earlier, but cannot remember right now. does anyone know off the top of their head?
[02:26] <|Amon|> mhfs, just use k3b
[02:26] <hendaus_> bruenig,  thats right i got an error
[02:26] <ChrisF-> ravi_master: Here's one thing that's weird... when using the online web access in Firefox, I have to always enter my username and password twice for it to work...
[02:26] <bruenig> hendaus_, ok, then it isn't formatted right so I am done. Use devede on the avi.
[02:27] <ChrisF-> in IE in windows, I do it once and it connects
[02:27] <ChrisF-> perhaps that's a problem?
[02:27] <hendaus_> bruenig,  ok i try
[02:27] <ravi_master> chirsf: what happenned when you authenticated?
[02:27] <ChrisF-> it just sits there for about 5 seconds
[02:27] <ChrisF-> then says
[02:28] <ChrisF-> Could Not Authenticate To Server
[02:30] <ravi_master> oh, I might have the solution for this Chrisf
[02:30] <Hyper-cool> hey, is there a way to get to drivers that are stored in an exe?
[02:30] <arrenlex> Hyper-cool: cabextract might work, if you're really lucky.
[02:30] <arrenlex> !cabextract | Hyper-cool
[02:30] <hendaus_> bruenig,  i del everything now i will try from the begining
[02:30] <ubotu> hyper-cool: cabextract: a program to extract Microsoft Cabinet files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1-1 (edgy), package size 43 kB, installed size 144 kB
[02:30] <ChrisF-> ravi_master: I hope so!
[02:30] <ravi_master> put in DOMAIN\user, not just user
[02:30] <Hyper-cool> arrenlex, thx
[02:30] <ravi_master> into the username box
[02:30] <ChrisF-> hmm
[02:30] <ChrisF-> wish I knew the domain :)
[02:30] <ravi_master> domain is just usa.net
[02:30] <ravi_master> if that doesn't work, try usa\user
[02:30] <ravi_master> usa.net should work
[02:31] <ChrisF-> didn't work
[02:31] <ChrisF-> :(
[02:31] <ChrisF-> I think domain would be VIPREALTYGROUP or something along those lines
[02:31] <ravi_master> hmm, try it
[02:31] <ravi_master> you see, some exchange servers do want DOMAIN\user, others don't.
[02:31] <ChrisF-> yeah
[02:31] <ChrisF-> this is really strange
[02:32] <Hyper-cool> arrenlex, nope... no valid cabs found. there must be a way though because in a forum someone wrote..... pollywog  pollywog is offline

[02:32] <ravi_master> that could be the reason you get it twice in firefox
[02:32] <Hyper-cool> Problems installing Linksys WUSB11v4 w/ndiswrapper
[02:32] <ravi_master> not really strange
[02:32] <Hyper-cool> Hello, I'm a newbie having problems installing a wireless usb adapter on my Mom's computer. I'm following the directions at : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi...22&context=180
[02:32] <Hyper-cool> After I've installed ndiswrapper, and the .exe driver, I can get the system to recognize the device as installed, but I get no wireless entry in System>Administration>Networking, and Network Manager does not have any connection option other than my wired LAN that I'm using to set up the system.
[02:32] <ChrisF-> but in Outlook, my username is just cfarrugia@vip
[02:32] <ChrisF-> that's all
[02:32] <TrIG> hey does anyone know why the vm player is asking for a config file
[02:32] <Hyper-cool> so how did he do it?
[02:32] <ravi_master> the first time you put in just the username, the second time, you get the a changed username
[02:32] <ravi_master> am I correct?
[02:33] <arrenlex> Hyper-cool: Sorry, no idea. Never needed to use ndiswrapper.
[02:33] <ChrisF-> nope
[02:33] <ChrisF-> first time I put it in and it just re-pops up the box asking for ti again
[02:33] <ChrisF-> I type the same thing twice in Firefox
[02:33] <ChrisF-> IE it just goes first try
[02:33] <hendaus> back
[02:33] <Cafuneba> Hi everybody
[02:34] <coffeegrindah> Hello all, I'm building a Live USB 6.10 custom install and wondering if anyone else has tried and if i should write a how-to cause it's a mixture of like 4-5 different ones..
[02:34] <coffeegrindah> (for the wiki )
[02:34] <hendaus> bruenig,  sorry i have dc,i del everything and then i am trying from the begining
[02:34] <bruenig> hendaus, ok keep me posted?
[02:34] <ChrisF-> ravi:  I have to get to sleep.  I really appreciate all your help though
[02:34] <Cafuneba> I wanted to have ubuntu to automaticaly mount my cdrom when i put some disc in. I have tried following the forums and got no specific info on the issue
[02:34] <hendaus> bruenig,  :)
[02:34] <ChrisF-> I'm going to look up the domain tomorrow when I'm in the office
[02:35] <arnina> hi,when using apt-get source ,error occurs:E: Could not open file /var/lib/apt/lists/mirror.vmmatrix.net_ubuntu_dists_edgy_universe_source_Sources - open (2 No such file or directory).anyone know why?
[02:37] <s0nix> hi, anyone can help me, i got a ati dual screen. and i see no image of my videos on my screen 2.
[02:37] <hyperactivecrond> is the gnome-settings-manager bug ever going to be fixed?
[02:37] <hyperactivecrond> the one that gnome knows upstream
[02:37] <hyperactivecrond> that deals with themes?

[02:38] <_`XeOn_> hello
[02:39] <_`XeOn_> can any1 tell me why i cant compile neostats in egdy?
[02:39] <hyperactivecrond> _`XeOn_: where is the compil stopping?
[02:39] <_`XeOn_> its giving me a huge error in per.c
[02:39] <_`XeOn_> perl.c
[02:39] <MrFoobar> evening
[02:39] <Pelo> good evening
[02:39] <jrib> _`XeOn_: pastebin the full error output
[02:40] <MrFoobar> I can't get Ubuntu to boot on my machine, which is weird because I've installed it at least 2 other times on the same hardware
[02:40] <secion8> anyone know of a good app to rotate a video, my buddy shot a video but it came out sideways.
[02:40] <Pelo> MrFoobar,  borked cd ?  wrong boot device ?
[02:40] <glick> he does anyone knwo why my sound is no longer working?
[02:40] <frodo549> Good evening, morning guys..I am having a problem, of coarse. When i start up Ubuntu the screen is blurry and when i scroll my mouse over some sections a section of it is clear then when i scroll of the section becomes blurry, and the section that my mouse is hovering becomes clear.
[02:40] <MrFoobar> I checksummed the CD and it's ok, boot device?
[02:41] <Pelo> secion8,  I think you can fix that in avidemux
[02:41] <Pelo> frodo549,  do you have beryl or compiz installed ?
[02:46] <frodo549> no. sir.
[02:46] <secion8> pelo, Thanx, will try that out
[02:46] <MrFoobar> regardless of whether I boot it in safe graphics more or regular mode, the "Loading" screen is black & white and glitchy, then it gets to a peach-colored screen with a bunch of short black dashes scattered across, plays the "Boot up" noise, and hangs
[02:46] <Pelo> frodo549,  try reconfiguring xorg
[02:46] <|rt|> is there a channel for fiesty or is this the place to ask questions about that?
[02:46] <frodo549> alright will do.
[02:46] <mattyv> |rt|: ubuntu+1
[02:46] <puff> ardchoille: I think it's actually control-insert that trips me up.
[02:46] <Pelo> MrFoobar,  is the instalation done or is that with the live cd ?
[02:46] <MrFoobar> that's booting with the LiveCD
[02:46] <puff> ardchoille: Rather, control-shift-insert.
[02:46] <frodo549> hey pelo
[02:46] <frodo549> im using livecd.
[02:46] <_`XeOn_> here is the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11277/
[02:46] <frodo549> i havnt installed it yet.
[02:46] <timthelion> hey, in vixicron, do I need to put qoutes around the command if it is like "cat ~/reminders/track/* >> /dev/dsp" ?
[02:46] <Pelo> MrFoobar,  did you try the live cd on another comp ?
[02:46] <glick> does anyone know what could be blocking my sound?
[02:46] <ardchoille> puff: I never used ctrl+insert
[02:46] <MrFoobar> Pelo, I don't have another AMD64 to try it on
[02:46] <hyperactivecrond> glick: your volume not turned up?
[02:46] <Pelo> frodo549,   my; guess is that you don'T have the rght support for your graphic card out of the box,  you'll have to install the proper driver afterward
[02:46] <ravi_master> chrisf, you really just need to try different user strings, as you were pointing out earlier, user@domain, domain\user where domain is the correct domain.
[02:46] <glick> hyperactivecrond, no it is
[02:46] <hyperactivecrond> glick: your speakers dead?
[02:46] <Pelo> MrFoobar,  that was my best guess,  try the alternate install cd
[02:46] <MrFoobar> Pelo, I'm going to try the i386 install CD first, that's what I used to have installed and it ran
[02:46] <bacho> hello!!! i coudl make beryl run on my ati :D !!!
[02:46] <Pelo> frodo549,  check the forum for your hardware see if there is a howto for your card
[02:46] <MrFoobar> Beryl is hot stuff
[02:46] <Pelo> bacho,  probably   ask in #beryl
[02:46] <frodo549> alright.
[02:46] <frodo549> thanks much pelo =-)
[02:46] <_`XeOn_> jrib, here is the pastebin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11277/
[02:46] <LordLimecat> is anyone familiar with pyvnc2swf or xvidcap?
[02:46] <glick> anything else it could be ?
[02:46] <glick> some something conflicting?
[02:46] <MrFoobar> I remember having the same problem before, and it got fixed somehow...
[02:47] <MrFoobar> If I get the same problem with i386 I'll try firing it up on my MacBook
[02:47] <Pelo> glick,   sometimes my sound goes off because I muted an application and it stuck ,  dbl click the sound icon and see if the pcm thing is muted or not
[02:47] <bacho> :D it works :D
[02:47] <Pelo> MrFoobar,  I don't think i386 cd is suppose to work on mac computer
[02:47] <MrFoobar> Intel Mac
[02:47] <be_ring> hellow
[02:48] <Pelo> MrFoobar,  try looking up your hardware in the forum, maybe someone has an idea
[02:48] <be_ring> #manado
[02:48] <Pelo> be_ring,    /JOIN  #manado
[02:48] <MrFoobar> also, glick, go into alsamixer and play with the settings there, turning channels on and off and whatnot. Usually that gets my sound working
[02:49] <glick> acording to the alsa mixer everything is at max
[02:49] <secion8> pelo, avidemux does not rotate video, Unless I am missing it. Any other ideas. Seems like no packages want to rotate video. Seems like such a common sense thing to me in video editing.
[02:50] <am_rods> does anyone knows how to get mathematica 5.2 installed in windows running using wine?
[02:50] <MrFoobar> glick, I don't mean the levels, I mean the actual on and off options (I think you toggle with M)
[02:50] <blenna> how can i make a 1:1 copy of a html page & convert it to pdf?
[02:50] <MrFoobar> for example, to get the sound working on my Audigy 2 I used to have to turn the "Digital out" or something channel off
[02:50] <globe> Why cant I create a link in the /media directory for my new dvd drive (installed in place of a zip drive)?
[02:51] <jrib> am_rods: why don't you install it natively on linux? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mathematica
[02:51] <Pelo> secion8,  sorry my mistake , that little icon on the far rithg of the toolbar had me confused,   try looking up the problem in the forum
[02:51] <jvai> ok ppl.. ty all it was good
[02:51] <Hyper-cool> is there a channel to go to talk about ndiswrapper?
[02:51] <Pelo> globe,  permissions ?
[02:51] <secion8> pelo, yeah, I thought that was it too when i first looked at it.
[02:51] <rapid> Hyper-cool, whats wrong?
[02:51] <am_rods> i dont have the space to have it installed twice
[02:51] <glick> none of them are muted MrFoobar  except some of the Capture ones
[02:51] <Pelo> Hyper-cool,  did you try  #ndsw...
[02:52] <dprice> how can i arrange my install so that when a new version comes out i don't have to reinstall all my software?
[02:52] <glick> Line in and microphone
[02:52] <globe> Pelo what permissions do I need to set?  I am trying as root (sudo -s)
[02:52] <MrFoobar> glick: In the case, I'm not sure
[02:52] <Pelo> dprice,   just upgrade
[02:52] <Hyper-cool> rapid, i'm having a good deal of trouble getting my usb wireless adapter to work
[02:52] <_`XeOn_> jrib, did u saw the output error from my compilation?
[02:52] <jrib> _`XeOn_: you're compiling: http://freshmeat.net/projects/neo/ ?  What version?
[02:52] <Pelo> globe,   to make a new folder in /media try    sudo mkdir /media/foldername
[02:52] <yanger> is ubuntu ultimate edition just a edgy with lots of stuff pre-installed?
[02:52] <dprice> upgrade haven't worked so good,
[02:53] <_`XeOn_> 3.0
[02:53] <rapid> Hyper-cool, did you download the driver and run it with ndiswrapper?
[02:53] <MrFoobar> I swear something's screwed up with my computer ever since I put Vista on the thing.
[02:53] <Marupa> is there a way to get libasound2-dev ?
[02:53] <rapid> MrFoobar, obviously.
[02:53] <MrFoobar> But the thing is, I'm not joking
[02:53] <Pelo> MrFoobar ...
[02:53] <rapid> like ?
[02:53] <globe> Pelo: I did that, but I can't seem to use the link command to create a link
[02:53] <Pelo> MrFoobar,  I heard vista doesn't allow dual boot , I might be mistaken
[02:53] <MrFoobar> Logic dictates that Vista couldn't screw with my hardware, but ever since, I haven't been able to reinstall XP - it hangs up on the second reboot, and will never boot again, no matter what I try
[02:54] <rapid> globe: man ln has very good explination.
[02:54] <Marupa> I try to apt-get it but I always get:  libasound2-dev: Depends: libasound2 (= 1.0.11-7ubuntu3) but 1.0.13-1 is to be installed
[02:54] <dprice> mrfoobar, the thing that is wrong with your computer is that you installed a m,icrosix product :)
[02:54] <jrib> _`XeOn_: alpha 1?  alpha 3?
[02:54] <_`XeOn_> jrib, i tryed 2.5 and got same error
[02:54] <MrFoobar> Pelo, I never let Windows see my Linux partition, I install it on a second hard disk and when I want to boot, I manually select that disk in the BIOS :D
[02:54] <Pelo> globe,  that just makes a directory,  if you want your drive to be set to it you have to mount it
[02:54] <cafuego_> MrFoobar: Did you buy OneCare as well? Did you try calling MS support? ;-)
[02:54] <_`XeOn_> jrib, alpha4
[02:54] <MrFoobar> I'd call MS support if it wasn't in India, haha
[02:54] <peder_> Any chan for uberyl help? ;o
[02:54] <beg1689> uberyl?
[02:54] <jrib> !beryl > peder_    (peder_, see the private message from ubotu)
[02:54] <Pelo> peder_,   #beryl
[02:55] <jrib> _`XeOn_: I don't see any alpha4.  Can you link me directly?
[02:55] <beg1689> mm fun, im install ubuntu on an old laptop
[02:55] <MrFoobar> best part is the licensing - I installed Vista x64 on this thing, realized it was broken, then put the Vista 32 bit on it, which worked better. But I couldn't activate it 'cause I already activated the x64 one
[02:55] <Marupa> I really need this to work x.x
[02:55] <IcemanV9> peder_: #ubuntu-effects
[02:55] <globe> Pelo, yes I understand about mounting, I am just trying to replicate the link structure that ubuntu creates
[02:55] <peder_> thanks
[02:55] <rapid> globe, check out /etc/fstab maybe
[02:55] <cafuego_> MrFoobar: Well, it's broken, return Vista for a refund and run Linux.
[02:55] <secion8> anybody in here familiar with cinelerra? A video editor
[02:56] <cafuego_> For that extra $WHATEVER you can buy more ram instead
[02:56] <Pelo> globe,  that's as far as I can take you,  if no one esle can help try the forum
[02:56] <beg1689> laptop is pii 333mhz 196mb mem, no physical net connection whatsoever
[02:56] <glick> damn my ubuntu box lost its voice :/
[02:56] <globe> rapid: so if I can't create a link to a directory, how are there links to directories? I have cdrom0 (the mount point) and cdrom (points to cdrom0)
[02:56] <MrFoobar> I'm attempting to run Linux now, but I'd rather have that working before I get rid of the one OS that boots on it :)
[02:56] <Marupa> glick, as in no sound?   You could test sound there.
[02:58] <IcemanV9> !offtopic | beg1689
[02:58] <ubotu> beg1689: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:58] <glick> arrenlex, no it doesnt, what happened is i think i damaged the internal sound card when i tripped over my speakers the other day
[02:58] <Marupa> Anyone have any ideas on how to satisfy a libasound2-dev dependency?
[02:58] <MrFoobar> Marupa, no luck just trying apt-get install libasound2-dev?
[02:58] <arrenlex> Marupa: By installing libasound2-dev?
[02:58] <_`XeOn_> jrib, http://svn.neostats.net/snapshots/
[02:58] <globe> rapid: I am trying to duplicate the setup that the installer creates for removable media.  The installer creates a mount point (say cdrom0) and then also creates a folder (cdrom) that points to the mount point.
[02:58] <MrFoobar> sorry, sudo apt-get ...
[02:59] <arrenlex> !info libasound2-dev | Marupa
[02:59] <Marupa> MrFoobar, arrenlex, says I need an exact version, which is earlier than my current.
[02:59] <ubotu> marupa: libasound2-dev: ALSA library development files. In component main, is optional. Version 1.0.11-7ubuntu3 (edgy), package size 456 kB, installed size 1776 kB
[02:59] <globe> rapid: I have no idea why it does this but I figure there has to be a reason
[02:59] <jrib> _`XeOn_: ok, you've narrowed it down... now what revision?
[02:59] <arrenlex> Marupa: What does?
[02:59] <Marupa> apt-getting it.
[02:59] <Marupa> I try to apt-get it but I always get:  libasound2-dev: Depends: libasound2 (= 1.0.11-7ubuntu3) but 1.0.13-1 is to be installed <re>
[02:59] <_`XeOn_> jrib, 3115
[03:00] <arrenlex> Marupa: Have you enabled third-party repos?
[03:00] <glick> hmm surprisingly sound works through headphones still
[03:00] <glick> but not through the speakers
[03:00] <lisapc> has anyone installed frostwire on Edgy?
[03:00] <Marupa> arrenlex, as many as I could find, arrenlex.
[03:00] <arrenlex> Marupa: That would be your problem, then.
[03:00] <jrib> !anyone | lisapc
[03:00] <arrenlex> Marupa: Why are you adding third-party repositories?
[03:00] <ubotu> lisapc: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[03:00] <rapid> globe: to create a mount point you just mkdir /mnt/point
[03:00] <egg86> ipw2200 works worse on feisty than on edgy
[03:00] <Marupa> lemme double check which repos I have.
[03:01] <arnina> does it(apt-get source) have anything to do with /etc/apt/sources.list?
[03:01] <zen> how can I temporarily add an include path to the gcc command?
[03:01] <jrib> arnina: yes
[03:01] <cafuego_> -I/some/path
[03:01] <Erb_> Can a xorg.conf expert please PM me, I am having great difficulty adding adding a 19" monitor to my notebook
[03:01] <zen> can I put that into a makefile?
[03:01] <arnina> jrib,how to modi it?
[03:01] <rames> hello hello ... possible bug report re: wlan0 / prism2 usb wireless card after upgrade to feisty beta ... can i explain to anybody?
[03:01] <MrFoobar> Anyone, is there any problem you could see coming up because I changed around the order of my hard disks? (all SATA disks) because since then I can't get XP to work right, or Ubuntu to boot from CD
[03:01] <jrib> arnina: to do what?
[03:01] <egg86> arnina: just use synaptics utill to set up list
[03:01] <globe> rapid, okay.  for the fstab, do you happen to know the type and options for a dvd burner?
[03:01] <cafuego_> zen: Yup, traditionally that would go in CFLAGS
[03:02] <Smaug> i cant get the sound on my windows to work. help?
[03:02] <Marupa> arrenlex, I had to install a program that required a deb in a repo other than the normal ones.
[03:02] <BryanJK_> could  I get help redoing my ubuntu/windows dual boot setup?
[03:02] <arrenlex> Marupa: What program?
[03:02] <zen> cafuego, thanks
[03:02] <arnina> egg86,ok,i will google synaptics
[03:02] <Marupa> arrenlex, I don't recall.
[03:02] <rapid> globe: not sure..
[03:02] <jrib> Smaug: for windows help, visit ##windows
[03:02] <nick__> so I have alltray to doc my T-bird, is there anyway to dock it without opening alltray after each restart
[03:02] <globe> rapid: okay, thanks 4 your help
[03:02] <arrenlex> Marupa: Remove those third-party repositories. They're screwed your system up already.
[03:02] <brandonm> wtf
[03:02] <globe> rapid: :-)
[03:02] <Marupa> arrenlex, already done so.
[03:03] <zen> cafuego, hrm...let me amend that...can I slip it into a configure script?
[03:03] <rapid> globe: graci
[03:03] <penguinlord> $ sudo chroot /mnt/hda1 grub-install /dev/hda
[03:03] <arrenlex> Marupa: and run apt-get update?
[03:03] <egg86> arnina: just : system: administration: synaptics
[03:03] <cafuego_> zen: CFLAGS=-I/some/path ./configure --whatever
[03:03] <Silver_Seagull> When my CPU usage goes high (such as a bunch of Beryl effects crops up at once, or some high-CPU script runs) my mouse and keyboard get very choppy and/or not responsive.  Is there any way to force them to be polled all the time (a la Windows?)
[03:03] <Marupa> all that's in there now are beryl and nvidia extras.  and yes.
[03:03] <penguinlord> will that fix the grub error 21
[03:03] <GirlRiver> someone please tell me how I find out which kernel I an using
[03:03] <rames> ...basically i ran a "update-manager -c -d" => feisty => reboot, wireless usb device no longer works by default ... however sudo ifdown wlan0 ; sudo ifup wlan0 appears to work ... can anybody troubleshoot with me to file a good bug-report?
[03:03] <rapid> GirlRiver, uname
[03:03] <jrib> _`XeOn_: your ./configure completed without error?
[03:03] <rapid> GirlRiver, uname -v
[03:03] <_`XeOn_> jrib, yes
[03:03] <Marupa> tried apt-get update && apt-get upgrade && apt-get dist-upgrade  then trying to install.
[03:03] <penguinlord> who knows how to fix grub error 21
[03:03] <arrenlex> Silver_Seagull: Do you have 3D acceleration?
[03:03] <egg86> beryl'is not working on feisty jet :(
[03:03] <rapid> sorry
[03:03] <GirlRiver> rapid: thank you
[03:03] <penguinlord> at step 1.5
[03:03] <rapid> GirlRiver, uname -r :)
[03:04] <nick__> so I have alltray to doc my T-bird, is there anyway to dock it without opening alltray after each restart
[03:04] <vitalstatistix> anyone here with a laptop with a geforce go 6400 + turbocache gpu
[03:04] <arrenlex> Marupa: Are you on edgy or dapper?
[03:04] <GirlRiver> rapid: thank you  again
[03:04] <Marupa> arrenlex, edgy
[03:04] <Pelo> arnina,  synaptic is an app in the default install of ubuntu   menu > system> admin > synaptic package manager
[03:04] <arnina> egg86,ok ,i got it
[03:04] <Silver_Seagull> arrenlex, I do- Beryl is running fine on my GeForce Go 7700 512MB with the nVidia proprietary drivers installed and running.
[03:04] <arrenlex> Marupa: If I were you I would completely downgrade to edgy packages again, or you'll have lots of problems like these, and then compile your program from source.
[03:04] <Marupa> already did so.
[03:04] <egg86> Pelo :)
[03:04] <arrenlex> Silver_Seagull: Okay, just wondering. Sorry.
[03:04] <Silver_Seagull> arrenlex, To clarify - it is not the effects that are slowing it - it is any high-CPU task.
[03:05] <Marupa> I'm trying to get darkice to compile in alsa support.
[03:05] <BryanJK_> okay heres my problem, im about to reado my dual boot setup... so i installed windows first, but the File system from ubuntu or something stops the loader from launching, which is a problem since I need to install windows before ubuntu
[03:05] <vitalstatistix> shout 'yeah' if you have a laptop with a geforce go 6400 + turbocache gpu
[03:05] <BryanJK_> would anyone know how to fix this?
[03:05] <arrenlex> Silver_Seagull: Okay. I can't suggest anything, sorry.
[03:05] <Pelo> egg86,  sorry, I was away making some tea, I missed it
[03:05] <Silver_Seagull> vitalstatistix, I have a GeForce Go 7700 512MB if that's close enough for volunteer work...
[03:05] <Marupa> BryanJK_, Tried fixing the MBR?
[03:05] <jrib> _`XeOn_: have you installed libperl-dev?
[03:06] <arrenlex> !prefix | Marupa
[03:06] <ubotu> Marupa: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[03:06] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, do you have suspend to ram (S3) working?
[03:06] <zach_> hey, i've been having trouble mounting an ntfs partition of a raid0 array
[03:06] <Marupa> arrenlex, I try, but forget sometimes :P
[03:06] <arrenlex> Marupa: How did you downgrade?
[03:06] <BryanJK_> Marupa , sorry... but whats the MBR?
[03:06] <vitalstatistix> BryanJK_, you might need to reinstall grub using a livecd
[03:06] <robert_1> master-boot-record
[03:07] <Silver_Seagull> Hmmm, not sure.  Why Don't I try? :)
[03:07] <Marupa> arrenlex, apt-get update/upgraded.  Dunno any more than that.
[03:07] <BryanJK_> and what happens if I dont have a live cd?
[03:07] <arrenlex> Marupa: lol, that's not a downgrade.
[03:07] <Silver_Seagull> vitalstatistix, oops, I mean, "Hmmm, not sure.  Why don't I try?"
[03:07] <Marupa> arrenlex, what do I do then?
[03:07] <_`XeOn_> jrib, i guess so
[03:07] <sakobatoneko> anybody know is theres a psp converter for ubuntu
[03:07] <arrenlex> Marupa: create the file /etc/apt/preferences and put the following three lines in it:
[03:07] <Marupa> sakobatoneko, what do you mean?
[03:07] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, is this a laptop? I'm surprised you haven't attempted this yet
[03:07] <sakobatoneko> or a way to convert avi files to psp format
[03:07] <_`XeOn_> jrib, let me recheck
[03:07] <arrenlex> Package: *
[03:07] <arrenlex> Pin: release a=edgy
[03:07] <arrenlex> Pin-Priority: 1001
[03:08] <spiral_shell> it looks like my ubuntu does not point to the right sites to update installs....where is the file that I need to change to get the right headers?
[03:08] <arrenlex> Marupa: Save it. Then sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.
[03:08] <arrenlex> Marupa: Then remove the file again.
[03:08] <arrenlex> Marupa: Make sure to remove the extra repos before you even start.
[03:08] <rames> where's best place to file a bug report re: feisty upgrade process?
[03:08] <sakobatoneko> any video files
[03:08] <jrib> !bugs | rames
[03:08] <ubotu> rames: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.ubuntu.com/  -  Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/products/ubuntu-bots
[03:08] <MrFoobar> spiral_shell: /etc/apt/sources.list, I think
[03:09] <vitalstatistix> BryanJK_, it becomes tricky without a livecd, many people run into this problem and reinstalling grub always seems to work fine
[03:09] <_`XeOn_> jrib, it wasnt installed
[03:09] <Marupa> arrenlex, thanks.  that'll take a while. XD  415MB of downgrades.
[03:09] <_`XeOn_> :D
[03:09] <BryanJK_> okay
[03:09] <arrenlex> Marupa: lol, and you wonder why your system is messed up!
[03:09] <spiral_shell> MrFoobar, I think all mine are out of date
[03:09] <Marupa> arrenlex, will this screw up nvidia, though?
[03:09] <jrib> _`XeOn_: for the record, the end of the config script tells you to install it on debian :)  Though now I am getting a /different/ error
[03:10] <spiral_shell> I dont have the latest version of ubuntu as well.. where should I get the latest repositories
[03:10] <spiral_shell> ?
[03:10] <vitalstatistix> BryanJK_, make sure you google your problem before doing anything - and follow each step to the latter, otherwise you risk precious data
[03:10] <_`XeOn_> jrib, let me remake to see whats new
[03:10] <egg86> spiral_shell: google: download ubuntu feisty :)
[03:11] <BryanJK_> okay
[03:11] <arrenlex> Marupa: Depends. How did you install nvidia?
[03:11] <BryanJK_> the only problem is i dont have an ubuntu cd, plus im on a pocket pc
[03:11] <Marupa> the nvidia.limitless.lupine.me.uk / beryl method.
[03:11] <rames> jrib: if it's a hardware regression from edgy=>feisty what'd be good tags / subject lines (i'm looking for dupes now, not seeing anything obvious)
[03:11] <BryanJK_> but ill fiddle around with it
[03:11] <sakobatoneko> ?
[03:11] <Marupa> the nvidia.limitless.lupine.me.uk / beryl method. (to arrenlex )
[03:11] <arrenlex> Marupa: Even if it does, it's not hard to reinstall, just read the guide in the !nvidia factoid, or use the envy script you can read about in the !envy factoid
[03:11] <BryanJK_> BUT....
[03:11] <Marupa> arrenlex, thanks.
[03:11] <_`XeOn_> jrib, same error :(
[03:12] <BryanJK_> lets say I have an XP install that wont boot, and if I install ubuntu&grub will it boot along with ubuntu?
[03:12] <Marupa> arrenlex, here's to hoping my computer reboots.
[03:12] <jrib> rames: I would search for "upgrade" and the hardware or "feisty" and the hardware.  #ubuntu-bugs might have more hints
[03:12] <arrenlex> Marupa: Never heard of that, and most likely it'll break it. If it does, ask ubotu how to install nvidia properly.
[03:12] <BryanJK_> ide assume it would
[03:12] <sakobatoneko> anybody know how to convert video files to mp4 or psp format
[03:12] <jrib> _`XeOn_: make sure you 'make clean' and rerun the ./configure script
[03:12] <Marupa> arrenlex, it's the beryl method.
[03:12] <rames> jrib: tnx
[03:12] <evilgingivitis> vitalstatistix, Nope- doesn't work
[03:12] <osofast> hey
[03:12] <bruenig> !hi | osofast
[03:12] <ubotu> osofast: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:12] <arrenlex> Marupa: I don't know anything about it. At the end of it all, apt-get install ubuntu-desktop just to make sure you have everything you're supposed to have.
[03:13] <vitalstatistix> evilgingivitis, were you Silver_Seagull?
[03:13] <evilgingivitis> vitalstatistix, heh, yeah
[03:13] <Marupa> arrenlex, kay.
[03:13] <osofast> I am having a major problem, For some odd reason, my fat 32 partition is read only all of a sudden
[03:13] <vitalstatistix> evilgingivitis, tell me exactly what happened when you tried to resume
[03:13] <arrenlex> Marupa: If X won't start, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg and choose the 'nv' driver (no 3d accel) until you get nvidia sorted out
[03:13] <Marupa> Kay
[03:13] <BryanJK_> well i just go see if I can find another ubuntu cd
[03:13] <BryanJK_> thanks
[03:13] <Marupa> arrenlex, let's just hope my computer doesn't totally blow itself to bits.
[03:14] <Marupa> arrenlex, it's done that once before.
[03:14] <evilgingivitis> vitalstatistix, it suspends OK, but coming back it's a black screen with a cursor.  I can also rotate the cube (by using the keyboard shortcuts) and the cursor disappears, then reappears afte rthe appropriate time.
[03:14] <vitalstatistix> BryanJK_, do you have a ubuntu install cd
[03:14] <osofast> has anyone had that problem before?
[03:15] <sakobatoneko> is there a linux program that can do that
[03:15] <vitalstatistix> evilgingivitis, I see - Is this a laptop?
[03:15] <evilgingivitis> vitalstatistix, It is indeed sir
[03:15] <osofast> its driving me nuts, hold on let me try accessing it from my windowns partition and seeing what happens
[03:15] <arrenlex> Marupa: What?!
[03:15] <evilgingivitis> vitalstatistix, <GeForce Go series are laptop-only GPUs>
[03:15] <Marupa> sakobatoneko, what do you mean, I asked...
[03:15] <Marupa> sakobatoneko, just convert to psp video format?
[03:15] <vitalstatistix> evilgingivitis, correct
[03:15] <egg86> osofast: muont your fat32 on /media/w32
[03:16] <Projectwhat> how can I view my ubuntu desktop in windows. what will i need to type as the server? I already have vncviewer for ubuntu and windows. I have tried IPaddress but that ddint work.
[03:16] <sakobatoneko> yes
[03:16] <Marupa> sakobatoneko, mencoder should do the trick.
[03:16] <sakobatoneko> so i can watch them in the psp
[03:16] <Silver_Seagull> vitalstatistix, Timeout at last - I'm me again
[03:16] <egg86> projectwhat: just install ext2 driver
[03:16] <MrFoobar> yay, I'm not having the same problem with the i386 Ubuntu...    WHy not just /ignore MAC10!*@* all ?
[03:18] <Hobbsee> damned laggy chanserv
[03:18] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, you might need to switch VT's to get the visuals back - try ctrl+alt+F1 followed by a ctrl+alt+F7
[03:18] <Marupa> He's a repeat offender.
how do I install
[03:18] <Fizzbane> How do I enable desklets in gnome?
[03:18] <hendaus> bruenig, ok
[03:18] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, I'm also assuming your using the latest nvidia-driver (9755)?
[03:18] <Silver_Seagull> vitalstatistix, heh - it's not a feature I use much :)
[03:19] <spiral_shell> poningru I think the version of ubuntu that is on the system now is the 2004 version.... I might wait to install a whole new version of ubuntu...but I need to get mysql5 and php5 working
[03:19] <deanWI> Device Manager reports Unknown for my Processor.  Is there another way I can find out which processor is on my system [with software?
[03:19] <egg86> Projectwhat : downloand ext2.exe first and install inside windows to see ext3 partitions :)
[03:19] <poningru> spiral_shell: dapper onward has both of those
[03:19] <smeyer> can anyone help out with a sound problem
[03:19] <poningru> !sound | smeyer
[03:19] <ubotu> smeyer: 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
[03:20] <Silver_Seagull> vitalstatistix, hmm, 9746
[03:20] <spiral_shell> poningru, is it safe to upgrade from 2004 to dapper? or is it better to do a re-install?
[03:20] <vitalstatistix> deanWI, try running "dmesg|grep proc" in a shell
[03:20] <Taxman> deanWI: dmesg says the same thing?
[03:21] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, it's usually advisable to switch to the latest binary driver before downgrading to a working one since fixes might have been introduced
[03:21] <hendaus> how can i turn off the monitor please?
[03:21] <linxeh> press the power button ?
[03:21] <zach_> hendaus the button?
[03:21] <ardchoille> !ati
[03:21] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[03:22] <_`XeOn_> laugh out loud!
[03:22] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, but 9755 is quite new
[03:22] <vitalstatistix> hendaus, is this a laptop?
[03:22] <Silver_Seagull> vitalstatistix, thanks - I usually try to stay on top of the releases....guess I missed one during midterms :)
[03:22] <hendaus> zach_, i want to switch the monitor after 20 minutes to off
[03:22] <Silver_Seagull> vitalstatistix, Any idea on a choppy cursor on high CPU load though?
[03:22] <hendaus> vitalstatistix,  no
[03:23] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, I'm still recovering from a midterm
[03:23] <_`XeOn_> jrib, now a new error but smaller 2 lines

[03:25] <zach_> :(
[03:25] <BryanJK_> GirlRiver, what kind of keys do you want it to work with?
[03:26] <arnina> apt-get update will work well
[03:26] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, this is an issue with AIGLX on nvidia cards - I use the latest XGL from git which solves that issue
[03:26] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, you are using aiglx right?
[03:26] <vitalstatistix> Silver_Seagull, it could be an issue with xorg
[03:27] <BryanJK_> aww oh well
[03:27] <BryanJK_> whats the minimum amount of space to install ubuntu?
[03:27] <BryanJK_> about 2gb?

[03:30] <Fizzbane> Which is a better composite windows manager for gnome compiz or beryl??
[03:30] <arrenlex> !better | Fizzbane
[03:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about better - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:30] <arrenlex> !best | Fizzbane
[03:30] <ubotu> Fizzbane: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[03:31] <arrenlex> Fizzbane: Compiz is more stable but with less frills. Which one is better depends on what's important to you: stability or features.
[03:31] <BryanJK_> GirlRiver, I have to go in about 1.231 seconds
[03:31] <Fizzbane> which one is more compadible with gnome?
[03:31] <osofast> please can anyone help me?
[03:31] <BryanJK_> but ussually if you can find the drivers for your bluetooth dongle, and keyboard for ubuntu I have my bluetooth keyboard working
[03:31] <MillaTime> kty
[03:32] <BryanJK_> okay have to go
[03:32] <jrr> my microphone doesn't seem to work (CS4630 (game theater xp))
[03:32] <_Falkon_> I was configuring xserver to work with my radeon x300, and accidentally rebooted somewhere in the middle of it :(  However, when it rebooted, Ubuntu worked, whereas it hadn't worked before due to the x300.  How do I check to see if Ubuntu is using the x300 and not just onboard graphics?
[03:32] <jrr> unmuted, trying either alsa or oss, niether sound recorder nor skype like me
[03:32] <arrenlex> Fizzbane: They have nothing to do with gnome.

[03:33] <EnsignRedshirt> Anyone else having trouble connect to us.archive.ubuntu.com?
[03:33] <EnsignRedshirt> *connecting
[03:33] <jay> What is gnome's volume control applet that appears when u press up on ur laptop volume keys called... and how can I force kde to use it?
[03:33] <jrandolph> i'm a sad panda
[03:34] <ardchoille> EnsignRedshirt: Yeah, it won't open here.
[03:34] <hendaus_> bruenig,  thanx very much everything ok :))
[03:34] <_Falkon_> ensignredshirt: my software updates are acting weird and not working
[03:34] <bruenig> 2 weeks later, hooray
[03:34] <ardchoille> bruenig: lol
[03:34] <osofast> my fat32 partition is suppoused to be read and write? right?
[03:35] <arrenlex> jay: Open kcontrol, go to regional and accessibility, go to keyboard layout, and see if you can find your laptop model in the "keyboard model" list. If you can find it, KDE will automatically map keys like volume control to raise and lower volume.
[03:35] <Fizzbane> Is compiz compadible with 2 moniters (twinview)?
[03:35] <verbose> is there a list of apt repositories somewhere
[03:35] <bruenig> Fizzbane, #ubuntu-effects
[03:35] <bruenig> !easysource
[03:35] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic

[03:35] <ubotu> verbose: please see above
[03:35] <verbose> thanks
[03:36] <jay> Kde does already automatically map the keys, but I want to use gnome's volume control manager... how do I do that?
[03:36] <arrenlex> *shakes fist* brueniiiiig! >=|
[03:36] <arrenlex> jay: Oh. Why ever would you want that? No idea.
[03:36] <_Falkon_> is there a hardware/device manager that would show my video card in ubuntu?
[03:36] <arrenlex> _Falkon_: lspci | grep VGA
[03:36] <EnsignRedshirt> osofast: If it is mounted that way, yes.
[03:36] <jay> Kde's applet doesn't work properly... volume increases not linear, volume change does not reflect nicely in actual volume
[03:37] <_Falkon_> arren: what's that?
[03:37] <kazuka> hey guys
[03:37] <EnsignRedshirt> _Falkon_: If your are in gnome: System->Admin->Device Manager
[03:37] <ad0le> I have 3 ubuntu machines behind my cable modem / router that gets a new IP frequently, is there a write up anywhere on how to set you dynamic dns daemons for one of the machines so I can access it from the outside world?

[03:38] <brent> is archive.ubuntu.com down?
[03:38] <osofast> EnsignRedshirt i use the fat32 partition to share firefox and thunderbird
[03:38] <mhfs> arrenlex, I'll paste the log and xorg.conf again to you .. just one moment please
[03:38] <arrenlex> !offtopic | wng_z3r0
[03:38] <ubotu> wng_z3r0: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[03:39] <arrenlex> !version | mhfs
[03:39] <ubotu> mhfs: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[03:39] <osofast> and all of a sudden the fat32 is read only
[03:39] <mattyv> Hey guys, made myself a website and blog that I host from home (mainly for learning and fun). Most of it works fine as I use relative links like /photos.html. The problem with the blog is it puts the full address in everything, so for it to be web accessible it needs to be http://www.domain.dyndns.org, for me to edit from home it needs to be http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8080. Is there a way to have the best of both worlds?
[03:39] <mattyv> Sorry for the long Q
[03:39] <IcemanV9> ad0le: i believe i have read somewhere in ubuntuforums.org about that topic - i think dyndns.org is the way to go, but check the forums for more info
[03:39] <Deafboy> when i boot my computer in ubuntu i just get the standard background but nothing loads and i can't do anything
[03:39] <bruenig> brent, looks like it
[03:39] <mhfs> arrenlex, 6.10 edge
[03:39] <mhfs> arrenlex, edgy
[03:39] <whombat> does anyboy have an idea how to make a Foto CD with jpeg's in ubuntu?
[03:39] <arrenlex> mhfs: Congratulations.
[03:40] <brent> bruenig: thanks for confirming
[03:40] <Deafboy> this just happened my install has worked fine before
[03:40] <osofast> EnsignRedshirt do you have any ideas?
[03:40] <osofast> different but related question, how do i unmount a partition
[03:40] <brent> umount partition
[03:40] <brent> like umount /dev/sda6
[03:40] <IcemanV9> Deafboy: have you try 'safe mode'?
[03:40] <ad0le> any ideas on the dynamic dns client?
[03:41] <osofast> ok ill try that brent
[03:41] <mhfs> arrenlex, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11286/ .. this is the log
[03:41] <_Falkon_> ok, I found the device manager, but my onboard video and radeon are listed.  How do I make sure I'm using the radeon for darwinia and such?
[03:41] <EnsignRedshirt> osofast: Sorry, I don't know.  Just there is no reason a fat32 partition *couldn't* be read/write, if you want it to be.
[03:41] <Deafboy> Icemanv9: it does teh same thing
[03:41] <brent> osofast: to find the name of the partition, it may help to type df into terminal
[03:41] <jay> banshee does it
[03:41] <joe4444> is it common for the right ALT key not to work by default?
[03:41] <jay> I use banshee and enable the multimedia keys plugin, and it makes the gnome volume control take over by default
[03:41] <IcemanV9> Deafboy: did u upgrade recently?
[03:42] <bruenig> osofast, or sudo fdisk -l
[03:42] <am_rods> is there a way of using an equalizer with rythmbox?
[03:42] <mhfs> arrenlex, and this is the xorg.conf ... http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/11287/
[03:42] <arrenlex> mhfs: Run this: sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[03:42] <bruenig> am_rods, if you find it, please tell me
[03:42] <exs> i have an amd 3200 (single core) cpu. i want to upgrade. what is a good choice?
[03:42] <Deafboy> IcemanV9: no the only thing i did was turn on composite in xorg.conf but then i rebooted turned it off and still does the same thing
[03:42] <am_rods> :s
[03:42] <arrenlex> mhfs: Oh, you can change vesa to i810 in that now.
[03:42] <daedalus_> Anyone else having troubles hitting a subset of the edgy servers?
[03:43] <mhfs> arrenlex, both done
[03:43] <am_rods> equalizing in rythmbox?
[03:43] <tkooda> I've got a LVM root, but am unable to `resize2fs` a mounted ext3 partition (LV) with dapper's e2fsprogs < 1.3.9-1..  -anyone got a suggestion on how I can grow a live/mounted ext3 partition (LVM logical volume) that's open?  (I don't have the ability to boot off any rescue media to `resize2fs` while root isn't mounted)
[03:43] <_Falkon_> how do I make sure I'm using my video card and not just integrated graphics?  both are inserted and show up in the device manager
[03:43] <EnsignRedshirt> daedalus_: Yes, I can't access us.archives.ubuntu.com, and several other people said the same thing when I asked a few minutes ago.
[03:43] <IcemanV9> Deafboy: try the original xorg.conf and work from there ... hopefully, you'll find the problem
[03:43] <arrenlex> mhfs: this'll be more difficult... you're going to have to turn off X and start it manually from the command line.
[03:43] <GirlRiver> how do I map or bind keys on my keyboard to specific functions ? ubuntu 6.10
[03:43] <arrenlex> mhfs: So I guess write the following down.
[03:43] <daedalus_> EnsignRedshirt: Thanks. Good to know it's not just me
[03:44] <Hyper-cool> quick how do i break a command at the terminal
[03:44] <osofast> i tried typing unmount /dev/hda4
[03:44] <brent> archive.ubuntu.com appears to be down
[03:44] <IcemanV9> am_rods: unfortunately none in rhythmbox :/
[03:44] <Deafboy> IcemanV9: i copied it back over via terminal but it still does the same thing
[03:44] <osofast> it doesnt work
[03:44] <briguyd> Hyper-cool, control-c
[03:44] <Hyper-cool> thx
[03:44] <brent> osofast: type sudo umount /dev/hda4
[03:44] <Hyper-cool> archive is def down
[03:44] <EnsignRedshirt> GirlRiver: For some simple stuff, you can use System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts (if you are using Gnome)
[03:44] <Hyper-cool> how annoying
[03:44] <brent> osofast: do you get an error message?
[03:44] <osofast> sudo: unmount: command not found
[03:44] <Hyper-cool> how can i force apt-get to use a different mirror?
[03:44] <arrenlex> mhfs: Are you in X right now?
[03:44] <osofast> woops
[03:44] <brent> osofast: you misspelled it
[03:45] <brent> osofast: its umount
[03:45] <osofast> ok got it
[03:45] <brent> nice
[03:45] <EnsignRedshirt> heh... *everyone* misspells umount the first few times.
[03:45] <wweasel> A friend thought it would be an amusing prank to 'rm /boot' when I left my computer and had just used root in the Terminal (so it didn't ask him for a password). What methods on the wiki page RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows will fix this?
[03:45] <brent> lol
[03:45] <GirlRiver> EnsignRedshirt, thank you .. too easy !
[03:45] <IcemanV9> Deafboy: hm. last thing to do is 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'
[03:45] <osofast> IT WORKED
[03:46] <brent> fantastic
[03:46] <osofast> I had to unmount and remount the partition!! thank you guys soo much
[03:46] <EnsignRedshirt> GirlRiver: Sorry, I could give you a harder method that involves gconf-editor...
[03:46] <mhfs> arrenlex, yes I am
[03:46] <zach_> i'm having trouble playing videos off a windows network share.  I can play them if i copy the file over to the desktop first, but not directly off the share
[03:46] <arrenlex> mhfs: Oh, first, in your xorg.conf, also change the line DefaultDepth to 24. That's on line 118 in your paste if that helps.
[03:46] <am_rods> IcemanV9: any other that can handle ipods?
[03:46] <rm_you|work> wweasel: really, all you need to do is reinstall grub and all the kernel packages, that should do it >_>
[03:47] <mhfs> arrenlex, ok .. done as well
[03:47] <arrenlex> mhfs: Change your driver to i810. Run "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" to stop X. Then log in at the command line. Run the command "sudo 915resolution 3c 1440 900". Then run the command "startx".
[03:47] <IcemanV9> !ipod | am_rods
[03:47] <GirlRiver> EnsignRedshirt, I think I will try the easy one first and come back for more help and guidance if needed
[03:47] <ubotu> am_rods: 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] <Hyper-cool> Is there a way to tell apt-get to use a different mirror, since archive.ubuntu.com is down
[03:47] <arrenlex> mhfs: (this is the part you might want to write down)
[03:47] <beg1689> is there something wrong with ubuntu?
[03:47] <brent> wweasel: if I were you I'd grab an ubuntu install disc, chroot into the partition and install the grub and linux-generic packages
[03:47] <Hyper-cool> !rockbox
[03:47] <ubotu> rockbox is an open source firmware replacement for MP3 players from Archos, iRiver, Apple (iPod), and iAudio.  See http://www.rockbox.org/ to get started!
[03:47] <wweasel> rm_you|work: Alright, how? I'm in the Live CD Environment. I can chroot into my partition
[03:47] <Infohawk> Hyper-cool's question is mine too.
[03:47] <EnsignRedshirt> beg1689: That's a pretty open-ended question!
[03:47] <GirlRiver> EnsignRedshirt, I meant "too easy" as in ... I should have found that out myself instead of wasting your time ... thanks for your help.
[03:48] <osofast> nvm it didnt work
[03:48] <rm_you|work> wweasel: sooo.... sudo apt-get install --reinstall grub
[03:48] <osofast> it worked once
[03:48] <wweasel> brent: just chroot in and then reinstall them?
[03:48] <brent> wweasel: can you install packages with apt-get?
[03:48] <rm_you|work> wweasel: and then whatever kernel you were running
[03:48] <mhfs> arrenlex, alright ... just this?
[03:48] <brent> wweasel: yep
[03:48] <EnsignRedshirt> GirlRiver: No problem... (and just to be sure... my last comment was a joke :)
[03:48] <beg1689> im trying to apt-get update but it keeps stopping at "Connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com
[03:48] <wweasel> brent, rm
[03:48] <wweasel> brent, rm_you|work: Thanks so much for the help :)
[03:48] <Merovingi0> hi
[03:48] <rm_you|work> wweasel: so like, sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-2.6.17-11-generic
[03:48] <bruenig> !hi | Merovingi0
[03:48] <ubotu> Merovingi0: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[03:49] <brent> wweasel: except the archive.ubuntu.com servers are down right now
[03:49] <rm_you|work> wweasel: i would assume that's your kernel;
[03:49] <Merovingi0> the co.archive.ubuntu.com have a problem
[03:49] <Infohawk> How long until servers are back up? Is there an alternative?
[03:49] <bruenig> brent, I don't think it redownloads does it
[03:49] <knoppix> Huh
[03:49] <bruenig> canada is working
[03:49] <Merovingi0> the repositories = co.archive.ubuntu.com
[03:49] <rm_you|work> wweasel: just do both of those and when they finish, do an ls -l /boot and pastebin it
[03:49] <wweasel> canada is working? great. in canada.
[03:49] <Hyper-cool> Is there a way to tell apt-get to use a different mirror, since archive.ubuntu.com is down?
[03:49] <rm_you|work> wweasel: and i'll check and make sure everything looks right
[03:49] <Merovingi0> yessssss
[03:49] <brent> bruenig: that's right
[03:49] <Merovingi0> is down
[03:49] <bruenig> Hyper-cool, change your sources.list
[03:50] <Hyper-cool> bruenig, where is that file?
[03:50] <gnu-linux> anyone know a good and easy web server?
[03:50] <Infohawk> bruenig: change it with what?
[03:50] <rm_you|work> lol I use kernel.org as my main mirror :P
[03:50] <GirlRiver> EnsignRedshirt, yep ... i did laugh ... but still, that was too easy !
[03:50] <wweasel> rm_you|work: you're a great help. i'm running downstairs to plug into ethernet (bah Wireless drivers), and I'll be back
[03:50] <rm_you|work> wweasel: kk :)
[03:50] <Merovingi0> what other repositori can to use ?
[03:50] <arrenlex> mhfs: Yep. If it worked, "startx" will start X again. If not, change your driver back to vesa and run startx to get back to X.
[03:50] <Hyper-cool> Infohawk, sudo nano sources.list ... when you are in the right directory
[03:51] <jrr> the progress bar in sound recorder stays gray when i try to record, which makes me thing my microphone problems are driver related
[03:51] <brent> nano /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:51] <gnu-linux> anyone know a good and easy web server program?
[03:51] <thedado> just installed ubuntu on a amd 64 for the first time, to find out that java script and flash don't work, so I googled and installed 32 bit firefox, which seems to work ok, works just fine on my own netowrk however it will not open any pages from the internet. any suggestions ?
[03:51] <brent> apache
[03:51] <arrenlex> !apache | gnu-linux
[03:51] <ubotu> gnu-linux: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[03:51] <brent> gnu-linux: what are you trying to do?
[03:51] <Hyper-cool> Use sudo
[03:51] <OmnipotentEntity> Quick Question, I have a chroot setup and for some reason my locale isn't properly setup.  A paste of the symptom is located at http://rafb.net/p/9a2FNS92.html
[03:51] <Infohawk> Is there an automated way to get working servers? Like apt-spy?
[03:51] <penguinlord> what he easist way to fix the error 21 grub
[03:51] <OmnipotentEntity> I have /etc/environment configured exactly the same as my normal installation, and I have the same version of locale installed.  Anyone know what's up?
[03:51] <gnu-linux> brent public a webpage
[03:51] <Hyper-cool> sudo nano etc/apt/sources.list
[03:52] <penguinlord> pm me it
[03:52] <penguinlord> idk whos talkign to who lol
[03:52] <arrenlex> Hyper-cool: /etc. You forgot the first slash.
[03:52] <brent> gnu-linux: apache is the standard and typically has the best documentation, I'd go with that for your purposes
[03:52] <bruenig> will somebody else run this and tell me if it outputs your apt mirror: for i in $(cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep deb -m 1 | awk '{print $2}' | sed 's/http:\/\///') ; do echo ${i%%.*} ; done
[03:52] <Hyper-cool> arrenlex, you're very right. terminal told me as well :)
[03:52] <gnu-linux> brent ok thankx
[03:52] <brent> gnu-linux: there is also lighttpd you can look into
[03:53] <brent> gnu-linux: that's if you specifically need something super lightweight, but there is less documentation
[03:53] <brent> !lighttpd
[03:53] <ubotu> lighttpd: A fast webserver with minimal memory footprint. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.13~r1370-1ubuntu1 (edgy), package size 288 kB, installed size 852 kB
[03:53] <briguyd> if i have set up apache so typing http://phpmyadmin.local in the browser brings me to my phpmyadmin page, how would i be able to access that from the internet if i open my port 80 to the outside world?
[03:53] <gnu-linux> brent thankx
[03:53] <glick> i want to punch linus torvalds
[03:53] <glick> sorry wrong channel
[03:54] <bruenig> gnome homer
[03:54] <OmnipotentEntity> briguyd, you'd just type in your IP address.
[03:54] <brent> briguyd: find your public ip address by going to ipchicken.com and then type that number into a webrowser
[03:54] <Infohawk> bruenig: works
[03:54] <briguyd> ok, thanks
[03:54] <bruenig> Infohawk, thanks
[03:54] <arrenlex> bruenig: Nope. And wtf is with the loop? How about cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep ^deb | awk '{print $2}' | colrm 1 7
[03:54] <OmnipotentEntity> Assuming that your ISP allows you to have port 80 open.
[03:54] <OmnipotentEntity> I know mine doesn't.
[03:54] <brent> briguyd: eventually you can purchase a domain name and type that instead
[03:54] <bruenig> what the hell is colrm
[03:55] <brent> removes column?
[03:55] <arrenlex> bruenig: Or even  grep ^deb /etc/apt/sources.list | awk '{print $2}' | colrm 1 7
[03:55] <Infohawk> If you replace all us.ubuntu with something else will apt work?
[03:55] <arrenlex> bruenig: Take out a pipe.
[03:55] <briguyd> brent, yeah, but does anything change because i have it set up kinda weird on my end?
[03:55] <OmnipotentEntity> Quick Question, I have a chroot setup and for some reason my locale isn't properly setup.  A paste of the symptom is located at http://rafb.net/p/9a2FNS92.html
[03:55] <OmnipotentEntity> I have /etc/environment configured exactly the same as my normal installation, and I have the same version of locale installed.  Anyone know what's up?
[03:55] <ravi_master> ok
[03:55] <DemisM> say I add a blah_init to init.d how can I get it to start at boot up?
[03:55] <brent> briguyd: hmm I'm not sure what you're asking
[03:55] <ravi_master> rickf still here?
[03:56] <brent> briguyd: what's so weird on your end?
[03:56] <Merovingi0> co.archive.ubuntu.com no is on line
[03:56] <OmnipotentEntity> DemisM, what are you trying to add?
[03:56] <Merovingi0> co.archive.ubuntu.com no is on line
[03:56] <Merovingi0> co.archive.ubuntu.com no is on line
[03:56] <DemisM> a vpnclient
[03:56] <Hyper-cool> haha
[03:56] <OmnipotentEntity> client?
[03:56] <ravi_master> hypercool, why did you just laugh?
[03:56] <Hyper-cool> so i changed sources.list to the canadian servers and everything failed
[03:56] <OmnipotentEntity> Wouldn't you need to wait until X starts?
[03:56] <DemisM> yeah i need it to start up so that I can run vpnconnect
[03:56] <|Amon|> how do i install mplayer-codecs-essential so i can get windows media files to work with totem?
[03:56] <Hyper-cool> missing packages broken dependencies... the works
[03:56] <ravi_master> because Mervovingi tried to connect to co instead of ca?
[03:57] <bruenig> arrenlex, that doesn't separate the country code
[03:57] <DemisM> i need the client_init
[03:57] <arrenlex> !w32codecs | |Amon|
[03:57] <ubotu> |Amon|: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[03:57] <brent> |Amon|: are you running totem-gstreamer or totem-xine?
[03:57] <arrenlex> bruenig: What output format are you looking for?
[03:57] <bruenig> arrenlex, country code only
[03:57] <briguyd> brent, i have 2 virtualhosts set up in my httpd.conf file, how do i specify one from an outside connection?
[03:57] <brent> |Amon|: i'd recommend you not install 3rd party repos
[03:57] <DemisM> the file is added and when I do update-rc.d vpn_init defaults it says it has the links in the appropriate place but it doesn't start up at boot
[03:57] <ravi_master> oh yeah, guys, I live in VA, is there a way to get faster server for me?
[03:57] <|Amon|> brent, not sure
[03:57] <bruenig> arrenlex, that is the only reason I have the loop
[03:57] <Hyper-cool> you know what was genious.... not backing up my sources.list
[03:57] <OmnipotentEntity> DemisM, I don't know off of the top of my head, but I know where to look.
[03:57] <Hyper-cool> genius... rather
[03:58] <|Amon|> didn't even know it was installed to be honest till i tried to run a windows media file in firefox
[03:58] <OmnipotentEntity> It's probably easier to add it to your gnome startup or kde startup.
[03:58] <DemisM> OmnipotentEntity: where?
[03:58] <wweasel> bruenig: the canadian archive.ubuntu.org isn't working for me
[03:58] <brent> briguyd: I don't remember off the top of my head, but there is a way to do it.  I hate to say it but RTM, because I can't remember.  Sorry!
[03:58] <briguyd> brent, ok, thanks
[03:58] <OmnipotentEntity> As you don't have to deal with dependancies and the like that way.
[03:58] <wweasel> bruenig: ca.archive.ubuntu.org ?
[03:58] <bruenig> wweasel, it is pinging
[03:58] <bruenig> wweasel, .com
[03:58] <Flannel> briguyd: They'd have to be on different ports.
[03:58] <OmnipotentEntity> Also do you need it to start up before or after you log in?
[03:58] <brent> |Amon|: do this, install all the gstreamer-0.10-plugins packages
[03:58] <arrenlex> bruenig: grep ^deb /etc/apt/sources.list | awk '{print $2}' | cut -d . -f 2
[03:59] <bruenig> arrenlex, yeah I just learned cut today
[03:59] <Flannel> briguyd: but, you don't put virtualhosts in httpd.conf, put them in sites-enabled
[03:59] <|Amon|> sudo apt-get install gstreamer-0.10-plugins ?
[03:59] <briguyd> Flannel, ok, thanks
[03:59] <ravi_master> oh yeah, guys, I live in VA, is there a way to get faster server for me?
[03:59] <bruenig> arrenlex, except it is cutting off the country code
[03:59] <brent> |Amon|: no, type gstreamer-0.10-plugins into synaptic
[03:59] <bruenig> it is starting at archive
[03:59] <bruenig> not us
[03:59] <arrenlex> bruenig: Then try -f 1. I don't even run ubuntu, I have no idea how the heck the sources are formatted.
[03:59] <wweasel> bruenig: right. tried it, am in canada, not working as a repository
[03:59] <brent> |Amon|: you'll see ...ugly ...ugly-multiverse ...bad ...bad-multiverse
[03:59] <_Falkon_> I'm not able to download updates.  Is anyone else having this problem, or do you know how to fix it?
[03:59] <brent> |Amon|: install all of those
[04:00] <bruenig> arrenlex, cut is garbage, its idea of a field is a joke
[04:00] <Infohawk> Is there a quick way to switch all us servers to canadian servers in sources.list?
[04:00] <Flannel> Infohawk: sure, open it up, change all the "us." to "ca.".  Shouldn't take more than 20 seconds.
[04:00] <brent> Infohawk: search/replace with gedit
[04:00] <ravi_master> guys, for the last time, can the repo list be refined to state by state mirrors for the US?
[04:01] <arrenlex> bruenig: I'm not sure what to say to that. Are you saying you don't like the command because you're too good for it?
[04:01] <IcemanV9> Infohawk: make a few copy of sources.list to your home directory .. one for us servers, other for ca servers
[04:01] <bruenig> sed 's/\/us./\/ca./g' -i /etc/apt/sources.list will do
[04:01] <Infohawk> How do you launch gedit as su?
[04:01] <|Amon|> brent, never used synaptic before...
[04:01] <mhfs> arrenlex, I owe you one! =)
[04:01] <bruenig> arrenlex, no when I was messing with it today it did the same thing
[04:01] <ravi_master> gksudo?
[04:01] <Flannel> ravi_master: The repos list can be refined to a specific mirror.  So, if you have a state mirror, you can use it.
[04:01] <arrenlex> mhfs: It worked?
[04:01] <Flannel> Infohawk: yes, gksu
[04:01] <IcemanV9> Infohawk: then copy one of those to /etc/apt ... then you're done
[04:01] <brent> |Amon|: ok sorry for being unclear, let me make it clear for you:
[04:01] <EnsignRedshirt> bruenig: Should you 'escape' that dot?
[04:01] <mhfs> arrenlex, working perfectly and I already set the conf to /etc/defaults/915resolution
[04:01] <bruenig> EnsignRedshirt, don't think so
[04:01] <bruenig> EnsignRedshirt, you can
[04:02] <ravi_master> although I am used to using sux, which isn't installed in ubuntu by default.
[04:02] <bruenig> EnsignRedshirt, you don't even have to escape spaces in sed
[04:02] <brent> |Amon|: sudo apt-get install gstreamer-0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer-0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer-0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer-0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse
[04:02] <arrenlex> mhfs: I don't think it will auto-apply that... I had to set up a script on my laptop that runs at boot.
[04:02] <bruenig> at least not always
[04:02] <osofast> ok the unmounting and remounting thing didnt work
[04:02] <ravi_master> Flannel: point me to the list of mirrors please, I am lazy
[04:02] <|Amon|> lol thx
[04:02] <EnsignRedshirt> bruenig: So it isn't a regex?
[04:02] <brent> |Amon|: type that last command into a terminal
[04:02] <osofast> my fat32 is still read only
[04:02] <arrenlex> mhfs: So reboot. And if it doesn't start or the resolution is wrong, I'll help you make the bootscript.
[04:02] <Flannel> !mirrors | ravi_master
[04:02] <ubotu> ravi_master: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[04:02] <Hyper-cool> if apt-get can't connect to the server will it time out? or move on or anything?
[04:02] <Infohawk> bruenig: thanks that script works
[04:02] <ravi_master> Flannel: thanks
[04:02] <giskardd> i need info on how to switch to a non-smp kernel
[04:02] <ros1> quick question for anyone in the room...is there something wrong with the repository servers?
[04:03] <brent> |Amon|: add on another package to that list: gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
[04:03] <EnsignRedshirt> ros1: Yes.
[04:03] <ravi_master> ros1, they are often overloaded, so hang tough
[04:03] <_Falkon_> it sounds like it.  Are you not getting updates?
[04:03] <osofast> im thinking about formatting my whole computer, how easy is that to do with ubuntu?
[04:03] <ros1> thanks
[04:03] <bruenig> Infohawk, yeah I don't think it will work with people who have cd repositories though, you can take out the "m -1" option from grep and get a more complete list though
[04:03] <mhfs> arrenlex, it seems to work here ..I tried rebooting without setting it ... and it didn't work ... then I set it ... and rebooted again ... and it worked fine
[04:03] <beg1689> very easy
[04:03] <zach_> this may sound like a stupid question, but what does it mean to have a zombie process?
[04:03] <osofast> where do i being
[04:03] <arrenlex> giskardd: Why would you want to do this? The only non-smp kernel is the -386 one.
[04:03] <osofast> begin*
[04:03] <beg1689> is there something wrong with the ubuntu archive? i cant apt-get update
[04:03] <brent> |Amon|: I'm sorry that long command had a typo, make sure that you type gstreamer0.10.... and not gstreamer-0.10... for all those packages
[04:03] <beg1689> al the us.archive.ubuntu lines fail
[04:03] <|Amon|> E: Couldn't find package gstreamer-0.10-plugins-bad
[04:03] <bruenig> beg1689, switch to canada
[04:04] <arrenlex> mhfs: Well, if you say it works fine *shrug
[04:04] <|Amon|> ahh my bad
[04:04] <arrenlex> *
[04:04] <EnsignRedshirt> beg1689: Yes. (Didn't you already ask that?)
[04:04] <brent> |Amon|: no my fault!
[04:04] <ravi_master> *shrug*
[04:04] <giskardd> arrenlex: having trouble installing a wireless card, ndiswrapper gave me a kernel panic error and crashed
[04:04] <beg1689> i tohught i did but i lost my IRC connection
[04:04] <arnina_> do you know servers for linux programming?
[04:04] <osofast> ok if someone could please tell me how to make my fat32 partition writable
[04:04] <ravi_master> giskard, exact model plz
[04:04] <bruenig> if only I could be assured that everyone had their sources.list formatted the same, I could script a way to switch to canada
[04:04] <AngryElf> is there some way to to take two hard disks and make them into one file system?
[04:04] <arrenlex> giskardd: Why do you think it's smp?
[04:04] <giskardd> i asked the guys over at #ndiswrapper
[04:04] <c0nv1ct> !LVM AngryElf
[04:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lvm angryelf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:04] <beg1689> whats the canada url?
[04:05] <brent> arnina_: what exactly are you asking?
[04:05] <c0nv1ct> !LVM | AngryElf
[04:05] <ubotu> AngryElf: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[04:05] <bruenig> beg1689, ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[04:05] <OmnipotentEntity> Quick Question, I have a chroot setup and for some reason my locale isn't properly setup.  A paste of the symptom is located at http://rafb.net/p/9a2FNS92.html
[04:05] <AngryElf> or what happens if I mount both the drives to the same mount point?
[04:05] <ravi_master> arrenlex: where did he say anything about an smp?
[04:05] <OmnipotentEntity> I have /etc/environment configured exactly the same as my normal installation, and I have the same version of locale installed.  Anyone know what's up?
[04:05] <beg1689> oh thats easy enough
[04:05] <slvmchn> i'm on a machine with fedora core 3 but i want to wipe it and put ubuntu on it. is there a way i can launch the install from isos within fedora? i don't have a means to burn the cds right now, so i'm looking for an alternate way to do it, maybe a network install?
[04:05] <c0nv1ct> AngryElf: AFAIK, only one will work
[04:05] <mhfs> arrenlex, =) .. thanks dude ! let's see how long I can survive without asking you something again.
[04:05] <arrenlex> ravi_master: (21:02:49) giskardd: i need info on how to switch to a non-smp kernel
[04:05] <|Amon|> argh
[04:05] <|Amon|> sec
[04:05] <AngryElf> so LVM is the only solution?
[04:05] <arrenlex> mhfs: Good luck. :)
[04:05] <ravi_master> ah, giskardd, please give me the exact model no?
[04:06] <ros1> angryelf, I tried raid once and ubuntu didnt like it very much
[04:06] <Hyper-cool> can i add servers to sources.list or do i have to just replace what's in there?
[04:06] <brent> |Amon|: By the way, the ubuntu package servers are down right now :( so you'll have to wait til they go back up to install stuff
[04:06] <bkudria> i'm using (k)networkmanager, but it doesn'y show my wireless device (i have a broadcom card that i must use ndiswrapper with, it creates eth1). i can use my wireless device fine (scanning with wlassistant) but network manager does not detect it...why?
[04:06] <bruenig> canada
[04:06] <giskardd> ravi_master: tew-424UB with a sis163u chipset
[04:06] <|Amon|> brent, can't i use another repo?
[04:06] <bruenig> |Amon|, yeah just switch it to canada
[04:06] <beg1689> Hyper-cool: you can add as many as you want
[04:06] <mhfs> arrenlex, ahhhh .. I remembered something! when ubuntu starts ... it's taking a long time to boot up ... is there a way to see what's going on on the backstage? I can just see the logo and the progress bar ...
[04:06] <|Amon|> finally canada is good for something
[04:06] <yell0w> hey folks, are ubuntu repos down or is it just me ?
[04:06] <misfit_toy> is us.archive.ubuntu.com down?
[04:07] <brent> |Amon|: if you can find one that works, then yes; change us.archive.ubuntu.com to ca.archive.ubuntu.com and you may get lucky
[04:07] <arnina_> brent:irc servers about linux programming .
[04:07] <beg1689> yea i was in the middle of setting up a systme on an old laptop then all the sudden the archive died on me :/
[04:07] <EnsignRedshirt> misfit_toy: Yes.
[04:07] <|Amon|> ;]
[04:07] <giskardd> ravi_master: ubuntu 6.10 amd64
[04:07] <ravi_master> at which point do you get the kernel panic, on startup?
[04:07] <beg1689> canada one works good though
[04:07] <|Amon|> sic thanks
[04:07] <misfit_toy> thanks EnsignRedshirt
[04:07] <bruenig> someone is going to need to change the topic
[04:07] <|Amon|> brb
[04:07] <brent> arnina_: sometimes in ##linux people chat about that
[04:07] <jrandolph> i'm having trouble installing my graphics card (ATI
[04:07] <jrandolph> oops....
[04:07] <giskardd> ravi_master: when i insmod ndiswrapper
[04:07] <|Amon|> where is the bash log again
[04:07] <Infohawk> Yeah I came here hoping the topic would talk about server. :)
[04:07] <ros1> how do you switch to the canadian repo servers?
[04:07] <arrenlex> mhfs: Yep. gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst, find the line that corresponds to the title of the kernel you usually boot with, and remove "quiet" and "splash" for the kernel options for that block.
[04:07] <|Amon|> $HOME/.bash?
[04:08] <bruenig> ros1, what servers are you on now?
[04:08] <ros1> us
[04:08] <IcemanV9> |Amon|: history?
[04:08] <|Amon|> ya
[04:08] <IcemanV9> ros1: us > ca
[04:08] <jrandolph> i'm having trouble installing my graphics card (ATI) recognized by ubuntu. i feel like i've been to the forums and a lot of websites, only to always end up at the same place. what other sources of support are there for me?
[04:08] <ros1> im using synpatic
[04:08] <Hyper-cool> so when i change the servers in sources.list, i get massive fails
[04:08] <ros1> oh, you mean change in the repo file?
[04:08] <arrenlex> jrandolph: What card?
[04:08] <mhfs> arrenlex, alright ... thanks!
[04:08] <beg1689> just change us.archive.ubuntu.com to ca.archive.ubuntu.com
[04:08] <giskardd> ravi_master: bb in a sec
[04:08] <bruenig> ros1, sudo sed 's/\/us./\/ca./g' -i.backup /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:08] <jrandolph> radeon x800
[04:08] <beg1689> ohh that works
[04:08] <ros1> sweet...thx
[04:09] <|Amon|> need a beer brb
[04:09] <arrenlex> jrandolph: What did fglrx say when you tried it?
[04:09] <brent> ros1: for everyone wanting to use the canadian servers, you need to edit your /etc/apt/sources.list file, and change all the servers to ca.archive.ubuntu.com instead of (for example) us.archive.ubuntu.com
[04:09] <jrandolph> flgrxinfo?
[04:09] <tkooda> is there any way to resize (grow) an ext3 root (mounted) fs on an LVM partition in dapper (w/e2fsprogs < 1.39) ?
[04:09] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: fglrxinfo
[04:09] <Hyper-cool> bruenig, what is that command you just typed? with all of the slashed?
[04:09] <misfit_toy> brent: are those repos identical?
[04:09] <Hyper-cool> also, i tried to change to ca servers and got huge errors
[04:09] <jrandolph> it tells me stuff about mesa3d
[04:09] <IcemanV9> misfit_toy: yes
[04:09] <bruenig> Hyper-cool, sed, it edits the sources.list and replaces all the instances of /us. with /.ca
[04:09] <brent> Hyper-cool: that was a sed script to change the word "us" to "ca", basically
[04:09] <arrenlex> Hyper-cool: Saves a backup of your sources.list and then changes every occurrence of the string /us to /ca
[04:09] <clouder`grr> Does anyone know how to re-order programs in the taskbar on gnome?
[04:10] <vitalstatistix> tkooda, try to look at the gparted live cd
[04:10] <misfit_toy> thanks IcemanV9
[04:10] <brent> misfit_toy: they ought to be, but I'm making no guarentees
[04:10] <bkudria> i'm using (k)networkmanager, but it doesn'y show my wireless device (i have a broadcom card that i must use ndiswrapper with, it creates eth1). i can use my wireless device fine (scanning with wlassistant) but network manager does not detect it...why?
[04:10] <Hyper-cool> thanks all
[04:10] <yell0w> some ops need to change topic
[04:10] <beg1689> Hyper-cool: "huge errors" isnt very specific either
[04:10] <misfit_toy> thanks brent
[04:10] <arnina_> brent:is there a dedicated server?
[04:10] <arrenlex> bruenig: By the way, if you use | instead of / as dividers in your sed, you don't have to escape your slashes so you can get rid of half of them. :)
[04:10] <ravi_master> giskardd, when you come back, check out http://sourceforge.net/projects/zd1211 for drivers that will work with the card you listed, no need for ndiswrapper, a new kernel, or anything else.
[04:10] <osofast> does anyone know why my FAT32 partition is read only all of a sudden?
[04:10] <brent> arnina_: what exactly are you interested in programming?  Maybe I can lead you down the right path?
[04:11] <arrenlex> bruenig: sudo sed 's|/us.|/ca.|g' -i.backup /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:11] <Hyper-cool> beg1689, i could past them... but they are huge.
[04:11] <osofast> or has this happened to anyone in the past?
[04:11] <beg1689> can i just remove all the xserver-xorg-video-* drivers except for the one im using?
[04:11] <teb> is there a feisty channel, i assume this is edgy and dapper only...
[04:11] <arnina_> brent:network programming and kernel module
[04:11] <bruenig> arrenlex, but then it isn't so cryptic
[04:11] <AngryElf> c0nv1ct, There's a great faq on LVM here:http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO/ -- which doesn't mention anything about removing a Physical Volume -- is that possible?
[04:11] <Hyper-cool> i could pastebin i guess..... brb
[04:11] <jrandolph> arrenlex, it tells me about mesa3d
[04:11] <arrenlex> bruenig: Oh, is THAT what you're shooting for. =P
[04:11] <IcemanV9> teb: #ubuntu+1
[04:11] <bruenig> arrenlex, can you use any divider
[04:11] <arrenlex> bruenig: I believe so, although I've only used / and | personally.

[04:12] <tidrion> want firefox 2 on ubuntu drapper
[04:12] <tidrion> easy way out there?
[04:13] <osofast> ill try to figure something out on my own, maybe format my whole HD and get rid of ubuntu or something

[04:13] <Froyd> tidrion: synaptics
[04:13] <arnina_> brent:inform me if you have found something
[04:13] <tidrion> doesn't show up
[04:13] <prec_> I'm seeing some weird issues with remote desktop (rdesktop) when connecting to a Windows machine where scrolling up & down causes screen repainting issues in the rdesktop session. If I scroll down and then back up using the mouse wheel, one portion of the screen gets duplicated many times over the whole display instead of redrawing the entire display. I'm using Beryl so I'm wondering if that has something to do with it or this is a
[04:13] <prec_> known rdesktop problem. I didn't notice this problem on Debian (where I did not use Beryl either).
[04:13] <jrandolph> after the installation, when i do flgrxinfo it gives me info about mesa3d, and not ATI. my Xorg.0.log file has some errors about not being able to acquire AGP and "error 'Xf86_ENOMEM'"

[04:14] <|Amon|> ??
[04:14] <bruenig> arrenlex, do you have to escape anything then with |
[04:14] <arrenlex> prec_: Switch beryl back to metacity and try it.
[04:14] <prec_> misfit: dang, do you think Beryl has something to do with it?
[04:14] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: glxinfo |grep direct .. what does it say? yes or no
[04:14] <ravi_master> giskardd, it seems there is some conflict with the version number on that product ID, if you have version a, you can use my first link (zd1211 driver), else, look at the second set of links and look at the discussion they have in the forum link I gave there.
[04:14] <misfit_toy> prec_: don't know, I use compiz
[04:14] <prec_> i will do that. brb
[04:14] <arnina_> brent:do you have an ebook version?
[04:15] <sigger_> how do I install the mp3 codec for xine and or totem?
[04:15] <arrenlex> bruenig: Dunno. Maybe things the shell would expand... but not in asterisks, only in quotes, so if you have 's|?|?|g' I don't think so.
[04:15] <jrandolph> two lines, direct rendering is no
[04:15] <tidrion> froyd: anything special I have to do to get it to show up?
[04:15] <vega`> hello
[04:15] <brent> arnina_: go to g2p.org and see, I have the paperbakc
[04:15] <ravi_master> giskardd, especially read the third message which tells you how you can tell the difference between the two versions using the download.
[04:15] <brent> |Amon|: you've got that all backwards dude
[04:15] <samkuehn> any idea what is up with us.archive.ubuntu.com.?
[04:15] <jrandolph> IcemanV9 two lines, direct rendering is no
[04:15] <arrenlex> samkuehn: It brokened. Use ca in the meantime.
[04:16] <bruenig> samkuehn, it is down
[04:16] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: yea. mesa don't usually give 3d accle support
[04:16] <firefly2442> kinda OT but if I have a USB 2.0 Wifi adapter will that work under USB 1.1?
[04:16] <arnina_> brent:Ok
[04:16] <bruenig> samkuehn, sudo sed 's|/us.|/ca.|g' -i.backup /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:16] <brent> |Amon|: nvm, i read it backwards
[04:16] <samkuehn> bruenig: nice
[04:16] <giskardd> ravi_master: i've done all that. zd1211 is NOT my chipset, i have sis163u, and i found a 64 bit driver for that. the only way i can make it work is by using ndiswrapper
[04:16] <|Amon|> lol :p
[04:16] <samkuehn> any ideas about timeline?
[04:16] <ravi_master> ah crud, I just went back and saw the chipset you gave.
[04:17] <brent> |Amon|: did you try mount -t iso9660 <arguments> ?
[04:17] <ravi_master> did you build ndiswrapper?
[04:17] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: does radeon or ati work for you before fglrx? does direct rendering: yes for radeon OR ati ??
[04:17] <jrandolph> IcemanV9 so i'd like to use ATI drivers for my ATI graphics card, but i've been having problems getting it recognized
[04:17] <giskardd> ravi_master: yes
[04:17] <|Amon|> no
[04:17] <giskardd> ravi_master: using 1.39rc1, tried 1.1 1.23, 1.24, 1.38
[04:17] <|Amon|> brent, it's been like 3 years since i've f'ed with nix
[04:17] <giskardd> none of them worked :(
[04:18] <arnina_> brent:do you have books about linux firewall?
[04:18] <prec_> Ok, I just tried rdesktop in metacity and it still had the screen painting issues... looks like Beryl is not to blame.
[04:18] <ravi_master> did you use a guide that lead you to the insmod step?
[04:18] <jrandolph> IcemanV9 i don't really understand your question. are you asking if i have 3d support before trying to install fglrx?
[04:18] <giskardd> ravi_master: yes
[04:18] <brent> |Amon|: programming or just setting one up and administrating it?
[04:18] <ravi_master> post please.
[04:18] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: yes
[04:18] <prec_> It is strange that I didn't notice that problem in Debian though.
[04:18] <brent> oops |Amon| wrong person
[04:18] <orehon> hey my dpkg and my apt-get is dead... i have one package here and its failed middle of the instalation! the package crash... now i cant remove and i cant reinstall!
[04:18] <KurtKraut>  When I insert a USB pendrive on Feisty it is automounted without giving me write permissions. I suppose this is a bug. In what package I should file it as  bug on Launchpad ?
[04:18] <BryanJK_> How can I edit grub to recognize a windows install?
[04:18] <brent> arnina_: programming or just setting one up and administrating it?
[04:19] <vega`> ?
[04:19] <dondong> guys,does ati driver now support aiglx?
[04:19] <ravi_master> ah, giskardd, I think I might have found the solution for you
[04:19] <brent> dondong: nope
[04:19] <billytwowilly> BryanJK_: look up chainloader
[04:19] <con-man> omglasers pew pew pew
[04:19] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: my other box have ati card - fglrx doesn't work, but radeon works and it gives 3d support (direct rendering: yes)
[04:19] <dondong> oops!
[04:19] <brent> dondong: but FOSS radeon does
[04:19] <ravi_master> giskardd, search is my freind, http://www.smallwhitecube.com/php/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=howto:tew424ubv2
[04:19] <arrenlex> dondong: No. They won't. They chose xgl.
[04:19] <giskardd> ravi_master: doing a make install also gives me the atomic kernel panic
[04:19] <jrandolph> IcemanV9 i don't think so. how would i test that? i think the wrong answer is to run glxgears
[04:19] <|Amon|> brent, shouldn't it mount my cdrom automatically when i insert one though?
[04:19] <colbert> is CTRL+ESC a default shortcut for anything in Ubuntu ?
[04:19] <brent> |Amon|: yeah it should
[04:19] <jrandolph> IcemanV9 so on a fresh install direct rendering should work?
[04:19] <bruenig> orehon, yeah repo is down
[04:19] <arrenlex> jrandolph: glxinfo | grep render
[04:20] <ravi_master> giskardd, this guy is in the same predicament, see how at the end the section "Success Stories"??
[04:20] <BryanJK_> could you explain a little more? I dont have an internet connection on my system
[04:20] <|Amon|> brent, how can i find out where it's supposed to be mounting to... it's not in /etc/fstab
[04:20] <dondong> brent,i wanna use beryl and i have a r9800 pro card
[04:20] <ravi_master> giskardd, looks like that patch might do the trick for you too.
[04:20] <brent> |Amon|: what does df or sudo fdisk -l say?
[04:20] <dondong> wat can i do
[04:20] <arnina_> brent:i mean,not by using iptables command
[04:20] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: you can switch back to radeon or ati and see if it does work or not.
[04:20] <orehon> bruenig: no dude
[04:20] <|Amon|> can i pm it to you so i don't ge tbooted?
[04:20] <arnina_> brent:kernel module using netfileter
[04:20] <brent> dondong: do you know which chipset it is?
[04:20] <|Amon|> for flooding
[04:20] <orehon> bruenig: my dpkg crashed
[04:20] <giskardd> ravi_master: do you know if that also works for amd64 with 64 bit driver?
[04:21] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: is your card x800? or ??
[04:21] <jrandolph> IcemanV9 to switch back i need to uninstall fglrx right?
[04:21] <dondong> r350
[04:21] <jrandolph> x800
[04:21] <brent> arnina_: there was a really good article written on netfilter in, I think, linux journal a couple months ago
[04:21] <dondong> brent,r350
[04:21] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: no
[04:21] <matthew> the repos are down?
[04:21] <squeaks> hey, vino-server was using some of my cpu resources, google says it is associated with vncserver, i'd like to disable it and keep it from coming back, but killing the pid, and it just comes back, what do i do?
[04:21] <brent> dondong: I think 350 is experimental with radeon, it may not work.  of course you could always just install xgl instead of aiglx if you want compositing
[04:21] <ravi_master> giskardd: checking....
[04:21] <arrenlex> !xconfig | jrandolph
[04:21] <ubotu> jrandolph: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[04:21] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: this box has x600 and fglrx works
[04:21] <arrenlex> jrandolph: That second command allows you to change driver.
[04:22] <brent> matthew: the repos are down
[04:22] <Dougie> anyone running fiesty?
[04:22] <sharp15> anyone here able to get a connection to us.archive.ubuntu.com (<IP_ADDRESS>) ?
[04:22] <brent> matthew: canada seems to be up
[04:22] <arrenlex> !feisty |  Dougie
[04:22] <ubotu> Dougie: The next version of Ubuntu (7.04; codenamed "Feisty Fawn"), it should be released in April 2007. At the moment it is alpha. Schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyReleaseSchedule - Specifications (goals): https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/feisty - Help and support in #ubuntu+1 (NOT #ubuntu)
[04:22] <dondong> brant,i get it,thanx
[04:22] <Flannel> sharp15: us archive is down currently
[04:22] <giskardd> ravi_master: ubuntu edgy eft is kernel version ... ?
[04:22] <Dougie> yeah i know but is anyone running it right now? lol
[04:22] <brent> dondong: don't call me brant ;)
[04:22] <arrenlex> sharp15: Zee us archives, zey are down. Use ca
[04:22] <jrandolph> IcemanV9 do you think the x800 and x600 are similar enough that fglrx should work for me?
[04:22] <ravi_master> giskardd, nope
[04:22] <samkuehn> is feisty going to have LTS?
[04:22] <brent> jkj
[04:22] <dondong> ?
[04:22] <arnina_> brent:i have a book named linux firewalls by steve suehring..,talking about building a software firewall by iptables
[04:22] <ravi_master> giskardd, uname -r is the kernel version
[04:22] <dondong> okay,sorry,brent
[04:23] <brent> dondong: i'm jk
[04:23] <arnina_> brent:i will check it out
[04:23] <sharp15> Flannel, arrenlex: thanks. that explains why i can't contact them.
[04:23] <matthew> repos seem to be back up
[04:23] <dondong> hi,jk
[04:23] <giskardd> ravi_master: thx
[04:23] <IcemanV9> jrandolph: not always ... i know that x900 is different from x600 .. dunno much about x800 though
[04:23] <ravi_master> giskardd, hold on
[04:23] <bruenig> us isn't up
[04:23] <brent> arnina_: i haven't seen any published books about netfilter i think you have to read the man pages for that
[04:23] <ravi_master> giskardd, try something simpler first
[04:23] <IcemanV9> let me find info on ati cards
[04:23] <samkuehn> yes repos seem to be back up.
[04:23] <bruenig> archive.ubuntu.com isn't up
[04:23] <sharp15> arrenlex: i'm not sure i even want to ask what accent you were trying to imitate.
[04:23] <bruenig> oh there it goes
[04:23] <brent> dagnabit
[04:24] <samkuehn> us.archive.ubuntu.com seems to be up for me now
[04:24] <dondong> brent:thank yo,jk
[04:24] <ravi_master> giskardd, try putting an extra kernel option before you start building into /boot/grub/menu.lst, wherever you see the linux kernel line, add pci=nopci
[04:24] <arnina_> brent:best way is reading the source code ,i think.'cause i have to code with it
[04:24] <ravi_master> giskardd, and retry the compilation process.
[04:25] <samkuehn> wait perhaps it is not
[04:25] <ravi_master> giskardd, if that doesn't work, then do the 16 k patch.
[04:25] <Jj> hey
[04:25] <brent> arnina_: have fun with that, it's just you and the code from this point on :)
[04:25] <samkuehn> wait now it is agian
[04:25] <Jj> anyone knows how to get my mic to work?
[04:25] <samkuehn> us.archive.ubuntu.com is now up
[04:25] <Jj> none of the solutions I find online seems to work >_<
[04:26] <brent> Jj: we need some info about your hardware
[04:26] <brent> Jj: do you know how to find the hw info about your sound card?
[04:26] <hanasaki> ubuntu run ok on 64 amd ? intel?  whats the value of running 64bit? and what processors are the best buy /performance to run it on ?
[04:26] <Jj> brent: such as?
[04:26] <Jj> amixer?
[04:26] <brent> hanasaki: IMHO, don't do it. it's pointless
[04:26] <jrandolph>  /exit
[04:26] <hanasaki> brent:  umm why...
[04:26] <bruenig> hanasaki, no real value in 64 bit at this point, but you can run 32bit on 64 bit processor if you want to future proof your computer
[04:26] <DemisM> i have a printer on a windows box and filesharing, do I need samba in order to use that printer and to access those shared files in the workgroup?
[04:26] <hanasaki> brent:  what do you run
[04:26] <arrenlex> hanasaki: There are no benefits to running 64-bit unless you need more than 4GB ram.
[04:26] <brent> Jj: is it a pci sound card or integrated in the motherboard?
[04:27] <Jj> I have Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 0a)
[04:27] <Jj> pci
[04:27] <arrenlex> hanasaki: You'll only run into compatibility issues, because things like flash and binary codecs won't work.
[04:27] <hanasaki> ug
[04:27] <arnina_> brent:can I ask you a question?how long did you programmed under linux?you can refuse to answer it:)
[04:27] <hanasaki> java work?
[04:27] <bruenig> hanasaki, no
[04:27] <arrenlex> hanasaki: Java works, but it will be slower to start.
[04:27] <brent> hanasaki: there is no real performance benefit, other than getting more than 4 gigs of memory
[04:27] <hanasaki> well then.. 64bit is out... so why buy a 64 bit?
[04:27] <arrenlex> hanasaki: Don't. Buy a dualcore.
[04:27] <brent> arnina_: not enough to do what you're about to undertake, I'll tell you that much :)
[04:28] <Jj> I can hear myself on the speakers, but other applications cant seem to use it
[04:28] <brent> arnina_: i'm just getting my feet wet with device driver C programming
[04:28] <hanasaki> arrenlex:  what experice do you have ? what happend? folks tel lme get the core2 duo
[04:28] <crdlb> hanasaki, all modern processors are 64-bit, but you should run them as 32-bit for the least pain
[04:28] <shadowman> I gots me a question
[04:28] <shadowman> lol anyone got answers?
[04:28] <zen> remind me how to use checkinstall?
[04:28] <bruenig> !justask
[04:28] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:28] <arrenlex> hanasaki: My desktop is 64-bit and my laptop is dualcore.
[04:28] <shadowman> or good at answering them
[04:28] <brent> hanasaki: definitely get core 2 duo.  but run 32 bit for compatibility.
[04:28] <hanasaki> arrenlex:  so what hapend?
[04:28] <daedalus_> Achive is back up
[04:28] <zen> it's not "make checkinstall", is it?
[04:29] <daedalus_> err archive
[04:29] <bruenig> zen, just checkinstall
[04:29] <arrenlex> hanasaki: I run a 32-bit distribution, though, because I want flash to work, and to play .wmv and quicktime and realmedia files.
[04:29] <arnina_> brent:well ,we are counterparts
[04:29] <hanasaki> problem is the duo cores amd and intel seem to have slower clockspeeds!
[04:29] <shadowman> anyone succesfully mess with usplash?
[04:29] <bruenig> zen, oh well yeah, you do make first, and then you do checkinstall after it makes
[04:29] <zen> bruenig, thanks
[04:29] <zen> yeah, I did that
[04:29] <arrenlex> hanasaki: Well yeah, because there are two CPUs.
[04:29] <crdlb> hanasaki, clockspeed is not important
[04:29] <osofast> how do I make fat32 read and write
 giskardd, try putting an extra kernel option before you start building into /boot/grub/menu.lst, wherever you see the linux kernel line, add pci=nopci <--- i have no idea how to do this, is there a howto?
[04:29] <bruenig> osofast, it should be readwrite by default
[04:30] <crdlb> hanasaki, they will still be a million times faster than the fasted Pentium 4
[04:30] <hanasaki> i hear software doent know how to split iteself on the to cpus so it actually runs slower
[04:30] <osofast> bruenig
[04:30] <crdlb> fastest*
[04:30] <bruenig> osofast, does this mount at boot or are you mounting it yourself?
[04:30] <Pelo> osofast, sudo chmod 777 /wathever/...
[04:30] <brent> arnina_: are you look to submit code contributions to kernel.org, or are you modifying the code for private use (corporate, etc.)?
[04:30] <daedalus_> hanasaki, clockspeed rubricks are soo 2004.
[04:30] <osofast> bruenig it should be and it was but this morning it stopped working
[04:30] <hanasaki> do on a dual core... does the kernel or OS move processes to the most available processor / core to dynamicaly balance load?
[04:30] <bruenig> osofast, so it doesn't mount anymore?
[04:30] <osofast> it mounts
[04:30] <osofast> but its read only
[04:30] <shadowman> zen you nsaid you have messed with usplash?
[04:31] <arrenlex> hanasaki: Some software is threaded, some software isn't. Regardless, your operating system will divide the tasks, putting some processes on one core and some on the other.
[04:31] <osofast> i cant save files to it
[04:31] <arrenlex> hanasaki: And where software IS threaded (a lot of libraries are), you will get the benefit.
[04:31] <hanasaki> are all threads, for a single process, on the same core?cpu?
[04:31] <osofast> should I try that? sudo chmod 777 /wathever/...
[04:31] <daedalus_> hanasaki, horsehockey. You run so any processes on a computer that dual core is a win every time.
[04:31] <brent> hanasaki: crdlib is absolutely right, a 1.66 core 2 duo is barely noticeable different from a 2.33 ghz core 2 duo IMHO
[04:31] <bruenig> osofast, well paste the output of "grep vfat /etc/fstab"
[04:31] <hanasaki> arrenlex:  i do alot of java and alot of threads... bea, jboss etc.. so that is good on a dual core or bad?
[04:31] <arrenlex> hanasaki: No, of course not, that's the point of threading. Each thread is put wherever it will be run fasttest.
[04:32] <arrenlex> fastest*
[04:32] <zen> shadowman, err...no.
[04:32] <daedalus_> hanasaki: threads are good.
[04:32] <Pelo> osofast,  you should change the /watever/ for the path of the drive
[04:32] <dmartinez> hey all.  I am pretty new to linux, and I have just done a update and installed the w32codecs.  Still can not play movies or mp3's, problem is when I try the install again, it says I have the latest codecs.  Can anyone advise?  Using standard player that came with ubuntu.
[04:32] <shadowman> damn
[04:32] <arnina_> brent:no,you ?
[04:32] <osofast> "/dev/hda4 /media/hda4 vfat rw,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0"
[04:32] <bruenig> Pelo, yeah but it is fat32 so those permissions won't hold
[04:32] <sharp15> arrenlex: where does ubuntu post information about servers being taken down?
[04:32] <hanasaki> ok.. what dual cores do you like?  and amd or intel is the best for the money?
[04:32] <arrenlex> sharp15: Some guy is like "the servers are down" and then he comes here and he's like "the servers are down!"
[04:33] <arnina_> brent:just usermode programming right now
[04:33] <brent> arnina_: no but I'm interested in getting into embedded linux so I'm trying to start there, i'm saving up for a gp2x
[04:33] <arrenlex> sharp15: And other guys are like... *check* "Yep, the servers are down!"
[04:33] <bruenig> osofast, rw is redundant with the fmask and dmask, I would just take that out. Also if you want it to mount at boot put auto in there so:      /dev/hda4 /media/hda4 vfat auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000 0 0
[04:33] <arrenlex> sharp15: And then when the next 50 people come to tell us the servers are down we tell them "yep". And that's how it works.
[04:33] <beg1689> gp2x is cool, but if they added wifi it would be awesome
[04:33] <orehon> When one package crashs, and your apt-get die, and you cant resinstall or uninstall the package... what i can do? reinstall my system?
[04:33] <PocketIRC> ....could someone help me get my windows on dual boot? I have windows installed, and ubuntu... but grub doesn't detect the windows install
[04:33] <sigger_> and I think the servers are back.  I just apt-getted
[04:33] <brent> sharp15: and then the servers are back up 5 minutes later
[04:34] <sharp15> arrenlex: ok. so there is no blog, rss feed, or other wise.  thank you for the help.
[04:34] <Pelo> dmartinez,   try using easyubuntu , might make the install easier for those codecs,  search for it on the ubuntu site
[04:34] <tonyyarusso> Depending on your mirror
[04:34] <BryanJK_> All I need to do at the moment is get windows installed, then tommorow Ill work on the dual boot
[04:34] <dmartinez> thanks
[04:34] <osofast> bruenig, it mounts automatically
[04:34] <Pelo> !easyubuntu | dmartinez
[04:34] <ubotu> dmartinez: easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[04:34] <beg1689> PocketIRC, when you installed windows did it say it was isntalling to the C: drive?
[04:34] <bruenig> osofast, try my line
[04:34] <sharp15> brent: it's difficult for me to tell that since I have to bring my firewall down in order to check for updates.
[04:34] <arnina_> brent:yeah,i have programmed under uclinux!
[04:34] <BryanJK_> I installed it first, to a partition which was like G:\
[04:35] <osofast> alright boss ill try it out
[04:35] <brent> doesn't gumstix run uclinux?
[04:35] <BryanJK_> but I installed it after another ubuntu distro had been removed
[04:35] <arnina_> brent:what is gumstix?
[04:35] <BryanJK_> which made it (windows) unable to boot for some reason
[04:35] <beg1689> well when i tried to install windows xp then ubuntu
[04:35] <BryanJK_> Yea I know it normally works
[04:36] <brent> oh dude check it out gumstix.org
[04:36] <beg1689> i isntalled windows to D:, while there was a C: drive, and windows must have put its boot info ont he c drive cause i erased c: to install ubuntu
[04:36] <beg1689> and grub didnt find it
[04:36] <brent> no wait gumstix.com
[04:36] <BryanJK_> okay
[04:36] <BryanJK_> Im going to install ubuntu tommorow
[04:36] <beg1689> BUT, if i just leave it as unpartitioned space, so that windows *thinks* its installing to the first partition
[04:36] <osofast> bruenig, what do you mean try my line?
[04:36] <beg1689> mif it says C:
[04:36] <bruenig> osofast, sudo nano /etc/fstab and edit that line to what mine says
[04:36] <BryanJK_> but for tonight, how can I install just the plain windows... there is something with ubuntu that blocks the windows from booting
[04:36] <beg1689> then it works great, ubuntu detects it automatically
[04:36] <beg1689> what version of windows?
[04:36] <arnina_> brent:let me see
[04:37] <BryanJK_> just plain xp
[04:37] <beg1689> well if you just install it somewhere, it will overwrite your MBR and only windows will boot
[04:37] <BryanJK_> it did the same thing with me on Fedora core for some reasont oo
[04:37] <BryanJK_> too*
[04:37] <beg1689> if the windows install is intact, you just need to add an entry to grub.conf
[04:37] <BryanJK_> okay
[04:38] <alex_mayorga> hello all
[04:38] <bruenig> !hi | alex_mayorga
[04:38] <ubotu> alex_mayorga: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:38] <alex_mayorga> brent, bye
[04:38] <BryanJK_> I have ubuntu installed
[04:38] <osofast> do i just close it after i edited the file?
[04:38] <Meshezabeel> Heya, what is the best way to batch resize a bunch of piss under ubuntu?
[04:38] <bruenig> osofast, co ctrl X to exit and then y to save it
[04:38] <BryanJK_> So how would I open/edit the grub config?
[04:38] <Meshezabeel> umm pics :o
[04:38] <alex_mayorga> how do I manually bring up a wlan interface
[04:39] <bruenig> BryanJK_, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:39] <osofast> ok
[04:39] <beg1689> theres probably a nice tutorial somewhere for that.. anyone here know a good one?
[04:39] <alex_mayorga> it's detected by lspci
[04:39] <osofast> dont
[04:39] <osofast> done
[04:39] <Meshezabeel> What is the best way to resize a bunch of pics in ubuntu?
[04:39] <bruenig> BryanJK_, with whatever editor you want
[04:39] <alex_mayorga> but not on iwconfig
[04:39] <arnina_> brent:uclinux is mainly for no mmu system
[04:39] <BryanJK_> oh thats great
[04:39] <osofast> lets see if that work
[04:39] <BryanJK_> i boot from hdd and its like "Error loading os"
[04:39] <BryanJK_> ....
[04:39] <beg1689> i can show you my entry if you want, it boots my XP and vista
[04:39] <bruenig> osofast, ok reboot, or sudo umount the fat32 disk and then "sudo mount -a" to see if it works
[04:39] <beg1689> but if your windows boot is messed up then theres not much you can do
[04:40] <osofast> thank you very much
[04:40] <BryanJK_> Im just going to install a fresh windows\
[04:40] <BryanJK_> then see what happens from there
[04:40] <beg1689> well
[04:40] <beg1689> wait
[04:40] <BryanJK_> what who
[04:40] <beg1689> you can install windows after ubuntu
[04:40] <BryanJK_> okay
[04:41] <beg1689> windows overwrites the MBR, all you have to do is boot from the ubuntu cd and reinstall grub, there are plenty of little guides on that
[04:41] <BryanJK_> I just need to get on windows in the next like half an hour
[04:41] <beg1689> ^ after installing windows
[04:41] <BryanJK_> okay
[04:41] <beg1689> well if you install windows it will boot right to windows
[04:41] <BryanJK_> But...
[04:41] <beg1689> until you reinstall grub
[04:41] <BryanJK_> the last time it rebooted after the setup
[04:41] <BryanJK_> it just had a blinking command line
[04:41] <BryanJK_> (which didnt do anything)
[04:42] <beg1689> right after widnows setup?
[04:42] <BryanJK_> yes
[04:42] <beg1689> hm
[04:42] <beg1689> maybe it was not a primary/active/boot partition
[04:42] <BryanJK_> i like how my partitions are ruined :|
[04:42] <BryanJK_> Partition 1 : Unkown - 2999mb
[04:42] <beg1689> but a windows isntall should overwrite everything to make itself work
[04:42] <BryanJK_> 3gigs? :|
[04:43] <beg1689> so thats not ubuntu's fault
[04:43] <BryanJK_> Partition 2 - Windows XP Fault Tolera... 15865mb
[04:43] <BryanJK_> :|
[04:43] <BryanJK_> alrite... lets see what happens
[04:44] <beg1689> what do you need windows for so badly?
[04:44] <BryanJK_> "Setup was unable to format the partition"
[04:44] <beg1689> i have it installed but i havent booted it in months
[04:44] <bruenig> windows free for two years
[04:44] <BryanJK_> its annoying how everything worked fine this morning
[04:44] <BryanJK_> then all of a sudden it all stops and i have to reinstall it all
[04:44] <beg1689> well i only got into linux about 5 months ago
[04:45] <beg1689> linux fre for 5 months  :p
[04:45] <BryanJK_> hmmmmmmm
[04:45] <BryanJK_> It cant format anything
[04:45] <BryanJK_> I hate you windows
[04:46] <BryanJK_> okay somehow it formated it
[04:46] <BryanJK_> give me 5 minutes then ill be back>
[04:46] <tbuss> i've installed ubuntu and im having probs with the sound. i have a sb audigy 2 es, ive noticed that i need to turn the volum way up to get any sound, any suggestions
[04:47] <BryanJK_> tbuss, are you sure your speakers are turned up? :P
[04:48] <tbuss> BryanJK: yeah, i checked that, its funny i get sound but I just need to turn the volume up more than needed,
[04:48] <BryanJK_> thats odd\
[04:48] <beg1689> so why again do you need windows?
[04:48] <tbuss> BryanJK: cant seem to get the 5.1 to work either
[04:48] <BryanJK_> because I game on windows
[04:49] <matthew> anyone know of a command line application that shows memory usage?
[04:49] <cry0x> free
[04:49] <yell0w> matthew, top or free
[04:49] <beg1689> i game on linux :)
[04:49] <BryanJK_> Linux gaming isnt really me thoughs
[04:49] <sharp15> beg1689: cool.
[04:49] <beg1689> ut2004, halflife2 and all its mods, warcraft 3
[04:49] <beg1689> good stuff
[04:49] <cry0x> super cool brah
[04:49] <BryanJK_> Ive tried wine/cedega but its just too much of a hassle
[04:49] <beg1689> hassle?
[04:50] <beg1689> i didnt notice any difference from wine or native install
[04:50] <matthew> top works, thanks
[04:50] <BryanJK_> On certain games
[04:50] <beg1689> yea, on well written games
[04:50] <BryanJK_> Like in Css and 2142 ill loose like over 120fps
[04:50] <beg1689> basically anything from blizzard or valve
[04:50] <beg1689> really? i get 160+ fps in source games
[04:50] <beg1689> gf 7600 go
[04:50] <BryanJK_> thats odd
[04:50] <beg1689> 1280x800
[04:51] <beg1689> highest texture/models
[04:51] <BryanJK_> I game in linux some
[04:51] <beg1689> (my LCD only goes 1280x800 :/)
[04:51] <BryanJK_> Thats widescreen for you
[04:51] <BryanJK_> Setup is copying files...100%
[04:51] <BryanJK_> 100.1%
[04:51] <joe4444> my right ALT key does nothing, so i tried to map Alt_R to Alt_L using xev, but it still does nothing... what else should i try?
[04:51] <BryanJK_> booting
[04:52] <BryanJK_> :|
[04:52] <joe4444> reboot?
[04:52] <Tb0n3> anybody know what I should get for a bulletin board?
[04:52] <perverted> anyone know if its possible to use XGL/COmpiz through NX server ?
[04:52] <BryanJK_> as soon as it loaded windows, my hardisk made a large clicking noise
[04:52] <BryanJK_> But YES
[04:52] <BryanJK_> it boots
[04:52] <BryanJK_> WEEEE
[04:52] <BryanJK_> i love you all!
[04:52] <BryanJK_> Now I need to wait until tommorow to buy a blank cd for 6.10
[04:53] <joe4444> BryanJK_, wal-mart
[04:53] <BryanJK_> beg1689   is it good that my hardrive keeps clicking on and off? :|
[04:53] <sharp15> BryanJK_: buy more than one at a time, it's cheaper.
[04:53] <beg1689> if it was designed that way
[04:53] <BryanJK_> last time i bought like a 300pack
[04:53] <BryanJK_> Setup is being restarted
[04:53] <BryanJK_> ....
[04:54] <joe4444> BryanJK_, that usually indicates it's about to die... if you mean regular clicking during normal tasks
[04:54] <sharp15> BryanJK_: Clicking + HardDrive = time for replacement
[04:54] <BryanJK_> I just bought that peice of crap 2 months ago
[04:54] <billytwowilly> anyone got any recommendations on how to easily unzip 576 zip files?
[04:54] <perverted> RMA
[04:54] <joe4444> if it only happens when the computer has been idle for a while then that probably just means it's spinning up from "sleep mode"
[04:54] <arrenlex> billytwowilly: unzip "*.zip"
[04:54] <billytwowilly> unzip *.zip gives the error : "caution filename not matched"
[04:54] <joe4444> but /regular/ clicking is BAD
[04:54] <BryanJK_> no it happens during significent disc usage
[04:55] <billytwowilly> then lists the file name
[04:55] <arrenlex> billytwowilly: The quotes are important.
[04:55] <joe4444> time to back up critical data
[04:55] <BryanJK_> and it ussually freezes up for a second
[04:55] <arrenlex> billytwowilly: unzip "*.zip"
[04:55] <BryanJK_> and the hardisk restarts
[04:55] <joe4444> BryanJK_, it's close to death
[04:55] <BryanJK_> Thats what I get for buying refurbished
[04:55] <BryanJK_> ....
[04:55] <joe4444> yeah bad idea
[04:55] <billytwowilly> holy crap it works, thanks arrenlex
[04:55] <arrenlex> billytwowilly: You doubted me? xD
[04:55] <billytwowilly> y
[04:55] <arrenlex> :(
[04:56] <joe4444> hdd are quite cheap these days anyway, get a nice seagate sata if you have sata
[04:56] <billytwowilly> err, that was for the window;)
[04:56] <billytwowilly> not here.
[04:56] <BryanJK_> by the time windows is done with my hardrive, all my data will be gone anyways
[04:56] <billytwowilly> I thought I tried what you suggestest already is all arrenlex.
[04:56] <billytwowilly> turns out I hadn't.
[04:56] <BryanJK_> now its clicking every 5 seconds
[04:56] <joe4444> say goodbye
[04:56] <arrenlex> BryanJK_: Refurbishing company engineer: "Sir, we got this broken 5200rpm drive." Refurbishing company boss: "Well, spray some wd40 in that baby and sell it was a 7400rpm drive."
[04:56] <vega`> hey
[04:56] <BryanJK_> Yes
[04:57] <giskardd> question: is pci=nopci an actual boot command? or is it pci=noacpi??
[04:57] <BryanJK_> Its a Maxtor 160gb refurbished ubercheap hdd
[04:57] <navreet> hi, I can't adjust my time through System->Admin->Time and Date... how come?!?! it tells me that I don't have permission, but it doesn't even ask for a password.  How can I change it from the command line... and isn't there a ntp daemon anyway??
[04:57] <BryanJK_> I bought it 2 months ago for $50l
[04:57] <mekaj> i'm running ubuntu on a macbook and i'm able to access wifi access points okay but only if i know the SSID and type it in.  is this normal in ubuntu?  is there some way to configure it so that ubuntu will detect wifi access points automatically?
[04:57] <BryanJK_> now it just crashed the installer
[04:57] <joe4444> BryanJK_, get a new WD 320gb for $90 @ newegg
[04:57] <arrenlex> BryanJK_: Two months is about all the time 50 bucks will buy you. =P
[04:57] <posingaspopular> navreet, try right/left clicking on the calender
[04:57] <BryanJK_> Im not buying maxtor
[04:57] <BryanJK_> I like seagate better
[04:57] <joe4444> sata?
[04:57] <BryanJK_> theres run like, cooler and are less noisy
[04:57] <BryanJK_> yes
[04:58] <navreet> posingaspopular, same thing, "The configuration could not be loaded.  You are not allowed to access the system configuration."
[04:58] <joe4444> yeah get seagate
[04:58] <navreet> BryanJK_, I like seagate too =]
[04:58] <grover> mekaj: network manager?
[04:58] <BryanJK_> like the maxtor, my computer sounds like those old computers
[04:58] <joe4444> i just ordered a 250gb seagate sata 3.0gbps for $75 @ newegg
[04:58] <posingaspopular> navreet, hmmm that's strange
[04:58] <BryanJK_> the ones that scream when they boot
[04:58] <vexati0n> meh
[04:58] <posingaspopular> but i did see a post about it on planet ubuntu
[04:58] <posingaspopular> or something similar....
[04:58] <Leyon> hda1 = first partition/primary master , hda2 = second partition/primary slave , correct?
[04:58] <BryanJK_> Im going to get a 500gigger when I get a new one
[04:58] <vexati0n> they should really get wine to support antialiasing text better.
[04:58] <BryanJK_> the only problem
[04:59] <BryanJK_> Is its going to be hard to backup like 140gb of stuff :|
[04:59] <arrenlex> Leyon: hda1 = first partition on primary master; hda2 = second partition on primary master.
[04:59] <mekaj> grover, is network manager a default package?  i don't seem to have it or know how to access it.
[04:59] <BryanJK_> ?
[04:59] <joe4444> BryanJK_, if it's clicking that bad you'll be lucky if you can back up a significant portion of your data
[04:59] <Leyon> arrenlex so, a = primary master , b = primary slave ?
[04:59] <arrenlex> Leyon: Yeah.
[05:00] <BryanJK_> i think i ruined my partiton anyways
[05:00] <joe4444> there's little chance you'll get it all
[05:00] <mekaj> grover:  i have "Networking" and "Networking Tools" under System -> Administration
[05:00] <Leyon> arrenlex c = secondary master , d = seconadrey slave, correct?
[05:00] <arrenlex> Leyon: I'm not a hardware guy. All I know is the letter marks the hard drive and the number marks the partition.
[05:00] <roshman> I am trying to setup an internal wifi card on edgy using a Dell Inspiron 600m; the module for this is ipw2200; when I modprobe that module, nothing shows up in sudo iwconfig; do I have to use the GUI provided for it to work (System-->Administration-->Networking)
[05:00] <mekaj> grover:  i go to the "Networking" one to manually set my wifi access point.
[05:00] <BryanJK_> well
[05:01] <Leyon> arrenlex Would a user who uses SATA HDD still uses those, I mean SATA doesn't have master/slave ?
[05:01] <internetr> is ubuntu > windows?
[05:01] <Netham45|Gone> yes
[05:01] <joe4444> does a bear shit in the woods?
[05:01] <BryanJK_> could my hardrive clicking possibly be a bad psu?
[05:01] <arrenlex> Leyon: I have sata drives, and mine are sda1, sda2, sda3 ... sdb1, sdb2, sdb3...
[05:01] <BryanJK_> its like 300w and its running a crapload of hardware
[05:01] <joe4444> BryanJK_, i doubt it... especially considering it's refurb
[05:02] <zen> should checkinstall be sudo'd?
[05:02] <bimberi> zen: yes
[05:02] <joe4444> BryanJK_, you could test that theory by unplugging unnecessary hardware
[05:02] <Leyon> arrenlex ehh, just a,b correct? NOT c,d? Since SATA has 2 built-in controller on the motherboard.
[05:02] <BryanJK_> its hard to tell
[05:02] <BryanJK_> the clicking is random ussually
[05:02] <joe4444> BryanJK_, defrag the drive
[05:02] <BryanJK_> but it seems not to happen as much when I unplug my second dvd
[05:02] <joe4444> that'll probably make it click like hell
[05:03] <BryanJK_> It does it when its completly formatted
[05:03] <BryanJK_> so its weird
[05:03] <Netham45> http://omnimaga.pastecode.com/18194 --- Having some issues, anyone know?
[05:03] <joe4444> well defrag performs a lot of write, so it works the drive
[05:03] <BryanJK_> i have an old seagate that just wont work
[05:03] <BryanJK_> any ideas on that one?
[05:03] <Leyon> Netham45 trying to detect your wireless card?
[05:03] <BryanJK_> Its a brand new sata, but like nothing will recognize it :|
[05:03] <Netham45> Leyon: nope
[05:03] <Netham45> I had it working
[05:04] <arrenlex> Leyon: I really don't think I should be answering this quesiton; I have no idea what I'm babbling about.
[05:04] <Netham45> but python or something decided to die on WIFI-Radar
[05:04] <joe4444> BryanJK_, not really... i just ordered by first sata drive
[05:04] <BryanJK_> kay
[05:05] <internetr> Is Ubuntu 7.04 near release? my question really is, should I Install 6.10 or &.4?
[05:05] <BryanJK_> the windows setup is like "Will complete in 29 minutes" and its said that for like, 10 minutes
[05:05] <BryanJK_> and like, like, like, like
[05:05] <BryanJK_> its not clicking anymore btw
[05:06] <Netham45> um
[05:06] <Leyon> arrenlex Alright, thanks for the help thou.
[05:06] <Netham45> try joining #windows
[05:06] <Netham45> so

[05:09] <fnf> Netham45: you meant it didn't work ?
[05:09] <Netham45> yea
[05:09] <Netham45> I can't connect
[05:09] <fnf> Netham45: thanks.
[05:09] <BryanJK_> i like how eveeryone all leaves
[05:09] <thedado> firefox32 is not resolving dns on my amd 64, works fine if I surf by ipaddress.
[05:10] <BryanJK_> woops
[05:10] <joe4444> thedado, change your dns server?
[05:10] <perverted> im bored... i need something fun to setup, any ideas?
[05:10] <joe4444> i like <IP_ADDRESS> -- always more reliable than my ISP's default
[05:10] <XxTRAINEExX> so i somehow removed my network manager applet from the top panel... is there an easy way to put this back?
[05:10] <joe4444> XxTRAINEExX, right-click, add to panel
[05:11] <fnf> perverted: did you try LFS ?
[05:11] <BryanJK_> when my hardrive clicks, it also seems to consume a ton of power
[05:11] <BryanJK_> like all my fans slow down
[05:11] <XxTRAINEExX> joe4444: i saw that... where is it on the system?
[05:11] <beg1689> perverted: LAMP? mythTV?
[05:11] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: open a terminal, 'killall nm-applet' then 'nm-applet --sm-disable &'
[05:11] <beg1689> how about beryl in e17
[05:11] <BryanJK_> stop clicking!!
[05:12] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: thanks will do
[05:12] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: don't thank me until it works :)
[05:12] <BryanJK_> hey beg1689, would you happen to have Xfire?
[05:12] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: it just did... its back
[05:12] <beg1689> xfire?
[05:12] <beg1689> no
[05:12] <beg1689> why
[05:12] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: thanks a bunch
[05:13] <BryanJK_> or msn, or aim, or yim, or something
[05:13] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: cool :)
[05:13] <beg1689> yes, all of the above
[05:13] <beg1689> all beg1689
[05:13] <BryanJK_> Thats brilliant!
[05:13] <BryanJK_> *writes down
[05:13] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: didnt you help me before with my wireless troubles?
[05:13] <beg1689> wel the msn is @gmail.com
[05:13] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: i think so, or tried at least
[05:13] <BryanJK_> well otay then
[05:14] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: i have the network manager working now.. and it connects to networks... but for some crazy reason it wont connect to my access point lol
[05:14] <BryanJK_> I like how the windows setup is like
[05:14] <BryanJK_> "Rebooting..."
[05:14] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: i use lots of special characters in my WPA key... im wondering if thats causing issues
[05:14] <Netham45> http://omnimaga.pastecode.com/18194 --- Having some issues, anyone know?
[05:14] <BryanJK_> "Time remaining for setup: 8 min"
[05:14] <enix> where do i go to make so that each folder i open opens a new window
[05:14] <BryanJK_> i find that annoying if there are tons of file explorer windows
[05:15] <BryanJK_> :|
[05:15] <bimberi> XxTRAINEExX: not sure about that one. A bit advanced from my own network-manager usage.
[05:15] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: np... im gonna relax my wpa keys a little and see if anything changes
[05:15] <XxTRAINEExX> bimberi: thanks again
[05:16] <BryanJK_> What do you reccomend I backup to?
[05:16] <BryanJK_> I dont have spare hardisks, or computers
[05:16] <BryanJK_> just like... 4 cds
[05:16] <BryanJK_> which means
[05:16] <BryanJK_> 7x4 - 2.8gb :|
[05:16] <hermatize> does ubuntu ultimate edition have support for sli?
[05:16] <spiral_shell> is the sources.list different for each version of ubuntu?
[05:16] <BryanJK_> owai
[05:16] <Netham45> GAH
[05:17] <BryanJK_> i have a 20gig 1000rpm hardrive lyiing around somewhere
[05:17] <Netham45> this is throughly pissing me off

[05:17] <arrenlex> spiral_shell: Yes, to match that version.
[05:17] <BryanJK_> is there a signed edition of ubuntu ultamite?
[05:17] <froyd> spiral_shell: guess so ...a lil bit they point to diferent repositories of different versions
[05:18] <spiral_shell> 2.6.10-5-386  <-- this is my version....
