[19:04] <infinitycircuit> popern, i do know someone who took damn small linux -> knoppix -> breezy badger -> etch
[19:04] <infinitycircuit> popern, but that is very unlikely
[19:04] <RebelX> ubuntu 7.10 only has 2 workspaces how do i add more?
[19:04] <tovella> Noble: if that happens, replace the failed drive and reboot.  i have never put a swap partition raid, and my main server has been running for about 3 years.
[19:05] <krim> RebelX: Right click on them and choose preferences
[19:05] <mrmonday> how can I make ubuntu automatically mount the swap partition when it starts? It doesdn't seem to do it any more
[19:05] <MasterShrek> Guest16155, well, just that your hdb looks similar to your hda, the desitination partion on hdb should be at least as big as the source on hda, and you should have a swap partition on hdb
[19:05] <theravingsociety> RebelX: krim was faster ;-)
[19:05] <ibanez> says gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
[19:05] <popern> Its just that the Ubuntu install CD won't work on my computer, but the Debian CD works ;o
[19:05] <Puaff> please, does anyone know when will wmware-player be available in 7.10?
[19:05] <ibanez> tar: /lib/firmware not found in archive
[19:05] <Jooles> hi all. Anyone know how long it'll be until Xorg 7.3 is gonna be in the ubuntu packages?
[19:05] <Noble> popern: have you tried the alternative cd?
[19:05] <RebelX> Thx krim apparently im a real newb
[19:05] <popern> Noble: yes
[19:05] <juano__> ibanez: go to /lib/firmware first
[19:05] <MasterShrek> ibanez, its a bzip2 file isnt it?
[19:05] <slavik> MasterShrek: any idea if there is a filesystem aware dd?
[19:05] <astevens> mrmonday, make sure its set in your fstab
[19:06] <theravingsociety> Puaff: why don't you use virtualbox?
[19:06] <Noble> popern: how does it not work?
[19:06] <MasterShrek> slavik, im not sure, i guess thats probably something to look at too
[19:06] <Puaff> theravingsociety, please, what's that?
[19:06] <Guest16155> MasterShrek: does there is other simple way to clone ubuntu ? (i mean like on graphic mode ? like norton ghost on windows systems) ?
[19:06] <krim> RebelX: It's all so obvious once you know it :)
[19:06] <MasterShrek> Guest16155, also make sure your filesystems are the ame, i dont know if its totally nesicarry but its soemthing i would make sure of
[19:06] <slavik> Guest16155: there is a linux distribution made for that
[19:06] <MasterShrek> Guest16155, probably, but this is easy to do, if you know what you are doing
[19:06] <mrmonday> astevens, what do I need to add to make it auto mount it?
[19:07] <juano__> ibanez: sudo tar -xvf <routetoyourtarfile> , do that inside /lib/firmware
[19:07] <theravingsociety> Puaff: pretty much the same, but open source software
[19:07] <Zaqio> Hey, anyone know how to run WOW on linux?
[19:07] <ibanez> k
[19:07] <Puaff> theravingsociety, could I use my vmware machines in virtualbox?
[19:07] <astevens> mrmonday, you need to have it set in your fstab. you can find examples on google for enabling swap
[19:07] <ibanez> odd
[19:07] <slavik> Guest16155: the destination drive, do you want to keep any information it has or do you want it to be the exact copy of the source drive?
[19:07] <theravingsociety> Puaff: afaik no
[19:07] <ibanez> tar: /lib/firmware: Not found in archive
[19:07] <krim> Zaqio: I've seen some guides, try and search the Ubuntu forums or maybe the official WoW forums. Anyway, shouldn't be too hard to find.
[19:08] <robdig> MeTrOiD014|Kevin: copy the md5checksum for the file you downloaded from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuHashes and paste it into the box in your md5checksum tool. That's a nice one, btw...
[19:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Guest16155: are the partitions on the destination the same?
[19:08] <Scunizi> Does anyone have a functional IMAP access to their Gmail account? I've got POP working but can't get IMAP.
[19:08] <Puaff> theravingsociety, I will have a look at it, thx a lot
[19:08] <MasterShrek> ibanez, tar -xf bcm4311_firmware.tar
[19:08] <theravingsociety> no problem
[19:09] <Guest16155> slavik: in my old computer i have hdd of 500gb , and in the new one i also have 500gb hdd , (just 1 partition)
[19:09] <MasterShrek> ibanez, then: sudo mv bcm43xx* /lib/firmware
[19:09] <slavik> Guest16155: and you want both to be identical?
[19:09] <astevens> mrmonday, sent you an example, change to reflect where your swap is
[19:09] <Guest16155> slavik: yes
[19:09] <ibanez> ok
[19:09] <ibanez> that worked MasterShrek
[19:09] <Jack_Sparrow> slavik: what about dd copy
[19:09] <ibanez> now it should read my card ?
[19:09] <slavik> Guest16155: you can do ghost's version of "disk to disk" by doing 'dd if=/dev/firsthd of=/dev/secondhd bs=4MB'
[19:09] <Hilikus> hey guys, i have a smb share that i mount on windows and it works fine, i mount it persistently so next time i reboot windows the drive still shows up there, but it says "network drive disconnected" even though the smb computer is fully functional, so the drive does show there but if i try to run something from it (like mp3s) it wont work, i have to go to windows explorer and double click on the drive and then i gets "mounted". cou
[19:10] <MasterShrek> ibanez, yes, try: sudo modprobe bcm43xx
[19:10] <slavik> Jack_Sparrow: ddcopy?
[19:10] <ibanez> ok
[19:10] <lucio123> Ciao to all of you
[19:10] <Jack_Sparrow> see what he said
[19:10] <Hilikus> has anyone experienced this?
[19:10] <Scunizi> Ciao lucio123
[19:10] <MasterShrek> Hilikus, ive noticed the same issues, never really foudn a fix for it...jsut scrap windows would prolly work best :P
[19:10] <juano__> MasterShrek: ibanez there is also the possibility your card is listed in restricted drivers
[19:10] <Jack_Sparrow> slavik: I did not want to talk over his help to you
[19:10] <ibanez> MasterShrek juano__, i am very greatful
[19:10] <ibanez> well it sees my card now !
[19:10] <juano__> ibanez: good
[19:11] <Hilikus> MasterShrek hehe, im glad im not the only one
[19:11] <ibanez> it saw a cell 01 in iwlist scan
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> slavik: the other way around actually
[19:11] <slavik> Jack_Sparrow: feel free to PM me then?
[19:11] <kitche> Hilikus: yes that's how it's suppose to work, you have to make windows connect to the drive at boot
[19:11] <spaz> hey there :)
[19:11] <astevens> Hilikus, you want a persistent mount. windows can set a permanent mount, otherwise you need to add it everytime you boot
[19:11] <juano__> ibanez: now from nm-applet you should see your router
[19:11] <Jack_Sparrow> slavik: I'm fine.. thanks, mostly lurking while watching football
[19:11] <slavik> :(
[19:11] <popern> Noble: says hdd not available or something. It won't go into the live cd et.. I have tried 4 different cd's, amd64 and alterate, i368 and alternate
[19:11] <AlanBShepard70> Every few boots of my computer my login screen freezes and forces me to reboot. When the login screen doesn't freeze sometimes after I login while the computer is loading my user settings the monitor flicks off and I have to reboot.  Any ideas on how to remedy this? My hardware is in good order. Everything works flawlessly with windows and with the previous ubuntu release 7.04
[19:11] <slavik> football has too many stopages but that's for ot
[19:11] <lucio123> scunizi ciao, I have a little problem when I install the emulator ZSNES
[19:12] <Scunizi> lucio123, sorry, I don't know anything about it.
[19:12] <Hilikus> astevens just like i said, i made it persistent already, the drive shows up in my drives under my computer, so it IS persistent, but its not automatically connected
[19:12] <ibanez> juano__ yes it does, i am connected
[19:12] <Hilikus> kitche how do i do that
[19:12] <popern> Noble: or HDx. as X in some letter or number, don't realy remember
[19:12] <lucio123> if somebody can give me a little help???
[19:12] <ibanez> ty juano__ and MasterShrek you guys rock
[19:12] <MasterShrek> lucio123, whats the problem? also there is another snes emulator in the repos if i remember correctly
[19:12] <juano__> ibanez: MasterShrek rocks
[19:12] <popern> Noble: hda maby
[19:12] <ibanez> lol
[19:12] <ibanez> finally
[19:12] <juano__> ibanez: hehehe
[19:12] <popdog123> hello! i have a problem: i cannot see the titlebar of any window. I tried changing the appearance but it didn't work. I don't see the edges of any windows either so i can't resize nor move them. (i have ubuntu 7.10)
[19:12] <ibanez> a distro that works
[19:12] <astevens> AlanBShepard70, do you see any issues in dmesg?
[19:13] <mrmonday> astevens, is /dev/sda5  	swap  	swap  	pri=42  	0 0 right, where /dev/sda5 is my swap file?
[19:13] <Jack_Sparrow> lucio123: This isnt really the place for snes help
[19:13] <ibanez> i know it's that ubuntu sticker on my monitor !
[19:13] <ibanez> ;p
[19:13] <kitche> Hilikus: remap the drive and check connect at boot or whatever it states
[19:13] <lucio123> this is the error that I get "Error: "/tmp/ksocket-root" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0."
[19:13] <Scunizi> popdog123, sounds like you turned on "effects" right?
[19:13] <popdog123> yeah
[19:13] <MasterShrek> ibanez, thats not a distro-specific thing, the bcm43xx driver in the actual linux kernel is much better supported these days
[19:13] <juano__> ibanez: im wondering that it should of prompted you on boot time for a driver for your broadcom
[19:13] <Hilikus> kitche i did that already
[19:13] <lucio123> but I don't understand
[19:13] <AlanBShepard70> astevens: not that I know of. Where can I check?
[19:13] <Jack_Sparrow> lucio123: You running Kubuntu?
[19:13] <ibanez> i never got a prompt juano__
[19:13] <astevens> mrmonday, i believe that looks good to me.
[19:13] <ibanez> however on
[19:13] <kitche> Hilikus: no you made it persistent which is different
[19:13] <popdog123> should i turn them off?
[19:13] <MasterShrek> juano__, is the not the driver, its the firmware, iirc some intel chips require the same sort of process
[19:13] <ibanez> gutsy gibbon
[19:14] <ibanez> it was under restricted drivers
[19:14] <lucio123> no, I run Ubuntu 7.10
[19:14] <astevens> AlanBShepard70, type    dmesg  and then enter
[19:14] <ibanez> never could get it working
[19:14] <ibanez> so i installed slack 12
[19:14] <ibanez> zenwalk
[19:14] <ibanez> backtrack2
[19:14] <ibanez> lol
[19:14] <ibanez> quite a few others
[19:14] <Hilikus> kitche i checked that chekbox in the frontend to mount it, thats the only setting there is
[19:14] <ibanez> then i was like, ill try feisty
[19:14] <MasterShrek> ibanez, slackware ftw!
[19:14] <Scunizi> popdog123, you need to download and install the config prog for compiz.  You'll find it in synaptic. Search for Compiz and you'll recognize the name. It's long. Once loaded put a check mark next to 'decorations'
[19:14] <Jack_Sparrow> lucio123: Is that from Ubuntu repos or some other site
[19:14] <ibanez> i like slack MasterShrek
[19:14] <MasterShrek> ibanez, its even better supported in gutsy
[19:14] <ibanez> had great success with slack 11.o
[19:14] <Hilikus> kitche i also tried from the command shell using /persistent:yes
[19:14] <slavik> Guest16155: you can read more about dd by ussuing 'man dd' command
[19:14] <juano__> MasterShrek: ahh i see, cause a friend has a dell inspiron with broadcom and it prompted for the driver, after that he specified the driver and it just worked
[19:14] <MasterShrek> ibanez, im running slamd64 12.0
[19:15] <AlanBShepard70> astevens: I'm checking now.
[19:15] <ibanez> mine is an inspiron
[19:15] <ibanez> 600m
[19:15] <kitche> Hilikus: as I states persistent != connect
[19:15] <lucio123> I get it from the site Zsnes
[19:15] <ibanez> nice MasterShrek you like ?
[19:15] <MasterShrek> juano__, yea i think there are some broadcom firmwares in the repos, but they dont always work afaik
[19:15] <Scunizi> Anyone using IMAP with gmail?
[19:15] <MasterShrek> ibanez, i love =D
[19:15] <juano__> MasterShrek: i see
[19:15] <popdog123> "compizconfig-settings-manager"?
[19:15] <ibanez> awesome man
[19:15] <ibanez> ooo i like compiz
[19:15] <Hilikus> kitche ok, i understand that, but what im saying is, where's that option. i havent seen it in the frontend nor in the command shell
[19:15] <astevens> Hilikus, create the mapped share from the windows tools menu
[19:15] <juano__> compiz rules
[19:15] <mrmonday> astevens, i'll try that now, thanks
[19:15] <Scunizi> popdog123, that's it.. if you don't use my nick you're messages will get lost in the noise.
[19:16] <lucio123> but I have the same error if I install it from Ubuntu
[19:16] <Jack_Sparrow> lucio123: Then that is the place to get help
[19:16] <astevens> mrmonday, np :)
[19:16] <popern> When I instert the Ubuntu Install CD and choose "Install ubuntu" the loading screen comes, and after a while it says: "hda?? is not availible" ?? = some number.
[19:16] <TheJedi2> When I select "start or install" ubuntu from cd the screen gets and nothing more happens
[19:16] <popern> whats wrong?
[19:16] <juano__> even better now that beryl joined compiz
[19:16] <kitche> Hilikus: on the frontend fi you don't see it then you must be blind or something I don't have a windows machine infront of me to see but it's in advance I believe
[19:16] <Jack_Sparrow> TheJedi2: does it do the self test?
[19:16] <ibanez> now i just gotta set up the package manager woo
[19:17] <TheJedi2> I see some message about "kernel is alive"
[19:17] <theravingsociety> popern: ubuntu cannot recognize your harddisk
[19:17] <Guest16155> how can i view my ports on ubuntu ? and open new port ?
[19:17] <slavik> Guest16155: I do suggest using the buffersize as big or bigger as the size of cache on the hard drives for faster transfers ... or even more if you have plenty of RAM :) (DMA is awesome)
[19:17] <lucio123> What means for you: "/tmp/ksocket-root" is owned by uid 1000 instead of uid 0.
[19:17] <MasterShrek> !firewall | Guest16155
[19:17] <astevens> Hilikus, go to a windows channel. they will walk you through it. or hit google and it will have screenshots. cant remember exactly what/wher eto click, but its easy.
[19:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !permissions
[19:17] <ubotu> Guest16155: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).

[19:17] <Parsi> how can i install a .deb package?
[19:17] <Hilikus> astevens wheres the windows tools menu
[19:17] <MasterShrek> sudo dpkg -i file.deb
[19:17] <Scunizi> Parsi, double click it.
[19:18] <juano__> Parsi: double click it
[19:18] <popdog123> Scunizi, well, it's checked but i see no difference
[19:18] <slavik> or by using debi ... (double click)
[19:18] <Parsi> ok
[19:18] <PeterPan_> 10
[19:18] <Parsi> another one
[19:18] <popdog123> Scunizi, do i have to restart or something?
[19:18] <Scunizi> popdog123, you might have to restart gdm.. ctrl+alt+backspace
[19:18] <astevens> Hilikus, up on the top menu, with file, etc. you really need to dig around or google it.
[19:18] <Parsi> i look for codecs to play mp3 and divx
[19:18] <popdog123> ok
[19:18] <Parsi> for my friend
[19:18] <PeterPan_> can any one recomend an antivirus and firewall that is goog but most low on system resources ?

[19:20] <theravingsociety> bye folks
[19:20] <popdog123> Scunizi, i'm running nvidia and i have the driver
[19:21] <popern> theravingsociety: And what can I do about that?

[19:21] <PeterPan_> Scunizi:  MasterShrek    ok. but i have wine installed. if i get a windows virus and clicked it. wine will run it and it can cause damage
[19:22] <slavik> not really
[19:22] <Jack_Sparrow> MeTrOiD014|Kevin: some machines want you to hit F10  like my toshiba laptop to select boot order

[19:22] <MasterShrek> PeterPan_, possibly but very doubtful
[19:22] <Scunizi> PeterPan_, only within the wine prog. most will just spinn uselessly and do nothing to the system.
[19:22] <ibanez> package manager cannot even find xchat
[19:22] <pudland> help with kernel patch pls.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45811/
[19:22] <slavik> because wined apps don't have admin access to system stuff
[19:22] <robdig> MeTrOiD014|Kevin: hmm, normally you just have to hit a function key to get into that menu at boot time, on mine it is f12...while the bios info screen is up it should tell you what to press
[19:22] <zazeem> Can someone please help me, i just installed ubuntu and before i enabled the nvidia restricted drivers my screen was crystal clear (crt monitor) and after i restarted with nvidia restricted driver its fuzzy kinda like a layer of some sort is in front of my screen its killing my eyes how do i get rid of this?

[19:24] <pfak> I'm building a kernel using the Ubuntu debian/rules script, is there an easy way to change the kernel version override?
[19:24] <Andre_Gondim> TheJedi2, if you had a ATI, there´s a bug, put in safe mode
[19:24] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: did you setup your monitor type as well as JUST the video drivers
[19:24] <PeterPan_> MasterShrek:  Scunizi Jack_Sparrow some windows apps.           but if i have write rights to a partition and wine runs a virus. cant it delete all in that partition?

[19:25] <Parsi> Scunizi http://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/free/m/mplayer/mplayer-doc_1.0~rc1-0ubuntu13+medibuntu2_all.deb is this right file?
[19:25] <TheJedi2> I have nVidia
[19:25] <mandrill> is there a script to install Apache, Mysql ad PHP on Gutsy yet?
[19:25] <slavik> also, how can I fix the meta stuff so that .exe stuff launches with wine?
[19:25] <PeterPan_> Scunizi:  some apps i like in windows
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: It does not have a REAL partition...
[19:25] <mandrill> all in a oner
[19:25] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, no i did not set the monitor type
[19:25] <MrPink_> Any other ideas ?
[19:25] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, in nvidia settings it has my monitor though
[19:25] <PeterPan_> Jack_Sparrow:  but it has rights to folders say.
[19:25] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: Most people forget they need to setup both for the best results
[19:25] <slavik> without giving me the stupid error that it is a DOS/Windows executable and poses a security risk?
[19:26] <shiaukai> 有沒有看的到中文的阿
[19:26] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, how do i set up my monitor?
[19:26] <w__> hey-hey-hey! Got a problem: my 'one touch mini' is now vfat vs ntfs like it was before b/c of the f... Windows. Hate Windows. Hate it... AAAHHH. Ok. Now the UUID changed on the mini. I go ahead and put this UUID into the Fstab thinking that it'll work out. I've put this: UUID=4749-C774 /mnt/mini. I didn't specify any options [-o umask=000 or anything like it]. Now, however, when it tries to auto mount it, it gives out that "You are not privileged to mount this vo
[19:26] <w__> lume." What's wrong?
[19:26] <Scunizi> Parsi, why are you downloading from there.. do you have medibuntu loaded?  Otherwise "System/Administration/Synaptic"
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: this is not the place for discussions, but it does not have access outside the wine environ
[19:26] <Scunizi> PeterPan_, like what?  Me too... just curious.
[19:26] <ibanez> hey juano__ , under package manager, how come it never finds xchat or beryl ?
[19:26] <pussfeller> i ws upgrading to gutsy and i ran out of space and the upgrade stopped in the middle, what do i do know to make it restart andfinish
[19:26] <TheJedi2> !minimal
[19:26] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: you will need your monitor refresh and add it to the xorg
[19:27] <pussfeller> !upgrade
[19:27] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[19:27] <TheJedi2> !Alternate
[19:27] <ubotu> The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[19:27] <slavik> w__, sudo mount -a
[19:27] <slavik> :)
[19:27] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, how do i do find it?
[19:27] <juano__> ibanez: beryl no longer exists, search for compiz, now beryl and compiz are 1
[19:27] <ibanez> ohh
[19:27] <ibanez> i can't get xchat either
[19:27] <ibanez> lol
[19:27] <Andre_Gondim> mandrill, http://andregondim.eti.br/?p=47 it's in portugues, but do just the steps
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: you also need to know sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg if you get stuck at a black screen
[19:27] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, how do i find my monitors refresh rate?
[19:28] <juano__> ibanez: enable repos
[19:28] <Scunizi> zazeem, you might have to referance it on the Mfg. site.
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: you can make any changes in there, then try to   startx   and if it dosent work try another config   if all else fails.  set it to vesa for basic gui access

[19:28] <zazeem> thanks :)
[19:28] <ComPro> i was having problems with FGLRX, so i decided to reformat and start from scratch. the only things I have done is enable the restricted driver and run ubuntu updates. after a reboot, I'm getting the same issue as before the reformat where it will not load X correctly with FGLRX enabled.
[19:28] <ibanez> you are a life saver really
[19:28] <ComPro> any help would be much appreciated.
[19:29] <juano__> ibanez: then click reload at main window, do not click revert in the repos window, click close after checking the boxes and then click reload in the main synaptic window
[19:29] <Scunizi> ComPro, does it load at all?
[19:29] <slavik> w__, can you mount ntfs partitions?
[19:29] <shiaukai> wow
[19:29] <ComPro> Scunizi: it loads saying that it can't properly detect my screen or video card and defaults to a low graphics mode.
[19:29] <Jack_Sparrow> !res

[19:29] <juano__> ibanez: np heh
[19:29] <pudland> help with kernel patch pls.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45811/
[19:29] <Scunizi> ComPro, was this a fresh install?
[19:29] <ibanez> lol source code is unchecked
[19:29] <ibanez> and doesn't have a - in it
[19:29] <slavik> UUID=... /mnt/point fstype ....
[19:29] <ComPro> Scunizi: Yes, fresh install, finished no more than 10 minutes ago.
[19:29] <juano__> ibanez: ok leave it
[19:30] <juano__> ibanez: nevermind sourcecode
[19:30] <Scunizi> ComPro, what kind of card do you have.
[19:30] <ComPro> Scunizi: ATI Radeon x1650 PCI Express
[19:30] <juano__> ibanez: just make sure the others are checked
[19:30] <ibanez> aye they are
[19:30] <w__> @slavik=> I can, manually. Nothing mounts automatically.
[19:30] <pussfeller> the upgrade manager said my install was in an unusable state and blink box was closing, and something about running dpkg again
[19:30] <RoC_MasterMind> Could someone test my telnet server?
[19:30] <Scunizi> ComPro, have you looked at /etc/X11/xorg.conf yet?
[19:30] <ibanez> all the files do not download
[19:30] <ibanez> could not download all respository indexes
[19:31] <ComPro> Scunizi: Yes, I have. It's a generic xorg.conf file with the change to it being FGLRX
[19:31] <ibanez> netowrk is down ;p
[19:31] <ferronica> On Ups Power, I check off Enable Ups Discharge Alarm then I hit close.. when I reopen that same menu the option is not checked.. what's going on? I have restarted the apc service a couple of times.. but it's still unchecked whenever I look at it
[19:31] <juano__> ibanez: try another server
[19:31] <Scunizi> ComPro, and have you reset xorg using the line contained in the first "text" portion of the file?
[19:31] <ComPro> Scunizi: Yes I have.
[19:32] <PeterPan_> Scunizi:  Jack_Sparrow . if i have write righst to some folders. a viri run by wine has the same rights. so it can destroy those files.......
[19:32] <PeterPan_> Scunizi:  Jack_Sparrow . no matter the are out side of the wine folders
[19:32] <juano__> !third-party

[19:32] <ArthurArchnix> Anyone know how to get either Drivel Journal editor or BlogGtk to connect to blogger.com?
[19:32] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[19:33] <Scunizi> ComPro, ok.. this might be an ATI issue for that particular card.  I run nvidia so I'm not the best person to diagnose this. ATI can be a pain.. Hopefully someone else will pick this up that knows.. Anyone?
[19:33] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: Simple solution.. stop using windows GARBAGE...   or show me a working example to porve your point
[19:33] <w__> I got this in fstab: UUID=4749-C774 /mnt/mini vfat 0 0. It still says that I'm not privileged.

It's just an http fetch on port 80
[19:33] <ComPro> Anyone, help would be greatly appreciated. After a fresh install and setting my driver to FGLRX, X will not load properly, defaulting to a low graphics mode.
[19:33] <kitche> Jack_Sparrow: ubuntuforums has tons of working examples on it I posted an url earilier to the thread :)
[19:33] <slavik> w__: you need to make it ntfs-3g (I think), I haven't mounted ntfs partitions in a long time :)
[19:33] <sawq>    	 	 	 	 	 	   Hey. I was told to install Vista then XP then Ubuntu if I wanted to triple boot. And that is what I did. However, now that I attempt to boot up the machine, it gives the grub boot loader with only vista as a choice, and when I choose vista the computer says missing hal.dll cannot continue. and I backed up up the hard drive before I installed Ubuntu.
[19:34] <w__> but it's vfat now
[19:34] <LtEmerpoc> hey guys
[19:34] <Scunizi> PeterPan_, If you have an legitimit copy of winXX maybe you should load it in Vmware server so the whole thing is isolated.. runs great in vm by the way.
[19:34] <LtEmerpoc> im bakc
[19:34] <arash_> !vfat | w__
[19:34] <ubotu> w__: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see !NTFS-3g or !FUSE
[19:34] <PeterPan_> Jack_Sparrow:  a friend of mine got viri running with wine. it started 1. sending mails. 2. deleted folders that were writeable according to the presend user rights.
[19:34] <LtEmerpoc> sup guys anyone here thats not like idle?
[19:34] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: This is NOT the place for this discussion.
[19:34] <stefano> m,e
[19:34] <Scunizi> ComPro, you might also check in #ubuntu-effects
[19:34] <stefano> me
[19:34] <stefano> :)
[19:34] <LtEmerpoc> meaning can someone help me lol
[19:34] <w__> Ayayay! It's not NTFS! It's VFAT!
[19:35] <stefano> whats ul LtEmerpoc
[19:35] <arash_> !question | LtEmerpoc
[19:35] <ubotu> LtEmerpoc: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[19:35] <LtEmerpoc> ok lol
[19:35] <juano__> has anyone tried the third party so called "partner" ?
[19:35] <PeterPan_> Scunizi: Scunizi a friend of mine got viri running with wine. it started 1. sending mails. 2. deleted folders that were writeable according to the presend user rights.
[19:35] <juano__> in synaptic
[19:35] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: But it did NOT change or harm the Ubuntu environ.
[19:35] <LtEmerpoc> my xconf is messed up to the point where i cant uncheck my ati video card drestricted driver...
[19:35] <PeterPan_> Scunizi:  consumes double resources too
[19:35] <LtEmerpoc> so...
[19:36] <stefano> LtEmerpoc, just run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[19:36] <LtEmerpoc> i would like to know how to 1. fix that.. and then 2. uninstall
[19:36] <dad> hi
[19:36] <sky`sunset> can someone help me? how can i save changes to my usb drive while i am using live cd?
[19:36] <Scunizi> PeterPan_, saw that above.. strange.. must have been running his email within wine otherwise it'd be difficult to find a registry with email programs listed.
[19:36] <troseph> LtEmerpoc: install envy
[19:36] <PeterPan_> Jack_Sparrow: my files are more important than ubuntu
[19:36] <RequinB4> hello dad
[19:36] <LtEmerpoc> install envy? whats that...
[19:36] <sawq> Hey. I was told to install Vista then XP then Ubuntu if I wanted to triple boot. And that is what I did. However, now that I attempt to boot up the machine, it gives the grub boot loader with only vista as a choice, and when I choose vista the computer says missing hal.dll cannot continue. and I backed up up the hard drive before I installed Ubuntu.
[19:36] <ComPro> hey everyone. i just reinstalled by copy of ubuntu gutsy, and the only things I did was run the updater, and enable the restricted FGLRX driver. The FGLRX driver, when enabled, causes X to load in a low graphics mode, saying that it can't properly detect my screen or card. any thoughts?
[19:36] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: Stop running windows programs...
[19:36] <troseph> LtEmerpoc: JFGI
[19:37] <LucianIndy> LtEmerpoc: Do what stefano said -> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[19:37] <kitche> !jfgi | troseph
[19:37] <ubotu> troseph: Acronyms or statements like  noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[19:37] <Scunizi> ComPro, try the vesa driver.
[19:37] <sky`sunset> how can i save changes to usb drive while i am using live cd????
[19:37] <arash_> envy is not supported by this channel, though I must say I personally REALLY recommend it
[19:37] <ComPro> Scunizi: VESA works, but I don't want to use the vesa driver.
[19:37] <kane77> stupid question, but what is the "Local zeroconf network" setting?
[19:37] <Mixx> ComPro - install Envy.  it is great
[19:37] <ComPro> Mixx - what is envy?
[19:37] <troseph> kitche: gotcha
[19:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Mixx: Wrong  and evil

[19:38] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability. Please see http://geekosophical.net/random/worksforme/
[19:38] <ComPro> Mixx - I'm running an ATI card, so it wouldn't work for me.
[19:38] <Mixx> ComPro - it's a script to instal nvidia  OR ATI drivers.   works for me each time a ubuntu upgrade hoses my config
[19:38] <ComPro> Mixx - Oh, ok.
[19:38] <sky`sunset> can someone help me?
[19:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Mixx: Please do NOT recommend that in here
[19:38] <Boohbah> ubuntu 8.10: indignant ibis?
[19:38] <Scunizi> ComPro, the problem with envy is when you upgrade later.. breakage

[19:38] <Scunizi> Mixx see above your last post
[19:39] <sky`sunset> how can i save changes to my usb while i am using live cd?
[19:39] <sawq> Anyone???
[19:39] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: set it up in persistent mode
[19:39] <sky`sunset> how?
[19:39] <ComPro> Scunizi - I don't know what to do right now though. It's a fresh install and I can't even do anything unless I use the VESA driver, and then I can't set up my dual head or compiz or anything, and that is what I want to do.
[19:39] <Mixx> I've tried that with no luck.  envy has always made it easy to install restricted drivers.
[19:39] <PeterPan_> Jack_Sparrow: some programs of windows can be replaced. e.g msn messenger.
[19:39] <sky`sunset> i just learned how to use linux
[19:39] <sky`sunset> i am a noob
[19:39] <w__> now i got this: UUID=4749-C774 /mnt/mini vfat user,noauto 0 0. we'll see how it goes.
[19:39] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: google up ubuntu persistent it is in our wiki
[19:39] <AngelsOfDestiny> Where can I get some screensavers for Ubuntu?
[19:39] <nadie> hi
[19:39] <arash_> sky`sunset - chanes to what?
[19:39] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: STOP.. this is OFFTOPIC
[19:40] <arash_> sky`sunset - changes to what? *
[19:40] <sky`sunset> changes to my usb
[19:40] <sky`sunset> while i am using live cd
[19:40] <Scunizi> ComPro, I understand... there are many threads on ubuntuforums.org about ATI and setup.. it doesn't sound like you're new to linux. Am I right?
[19:40] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: it is easy to do
[19:40] <ferronica> On Ups Power, I check off Enable Ups Discharge Alarm then I hit close.. when I reopen that same menu the option is not checked.. what's going on? I have restarted the apc service a couple of times.. but it's still unchecked whenever I look at it
[19:40] <sky`sunset> really?
[19:40] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[19:40] <sky`sunset> cuz every time i reboot
[19:40] <sky`sunset> i lose my files
[19:40] <ComPro> Scunizi - I'm fairly new, but I pretty much know what I'm doing.
[19:40] <PeterPan_> Jack_Sparrow: o
[19:40] <PeterPan_> Jack_Sparrow: ok
[19:40] <kane77> what is the "Local zeroconf network" setting?
[19:41] <sky`sunset> can someone give me the link?
[19:41] <Jack_Sparrow> When you boot the live you will type F6   then persistent  <enter>
[19:41] <arash_> sky`sunset - you are not supposed to use the Live CD as your operating system -.-
[19:41] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, in the xorg config can i just overwrite the resolutions that are there under screen with the ones my monitor recommends with the @ symbols like Modes		"1024x768@85hz" "800x600@85hz" "640x480@85hz" ?
[19:41] <jouke> My gnome keeps restarting at random intervals, is there a log file I can check for errors?
[19:41] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: but you need to preconfig the usb as casper..
[19:41] <sky`sunset> what is casper?
[19:41] <PeterPan_> Jack_Sparrow:  Scunizi  THANKS.. GREAT HELP
[19:41] <sawq> Hey. I was told to install Vista then XP then Ubuntu if I wanted to triple boot. And that is what I did. However, now that I attempt to boot up the machine, it gives the grub boot loader with only vista as a choice, and when I choose vista the computer says missing hal.dll cannot continue. and I backed up up the hard drive before I installed Ubuntu. I really need someone to help me here
[19:41] <_nix_> jouke: there are logs in /var/log/
[19:41] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: YES, BUT YOU WILL NEED TO SET THE REFRESH RATES UNDER THE MONITOR SECTION
[19:41] <Scunizi> ComPro, I've got an idea that you might not have tried yet.  Try running the reconfiguration script again from ctrl+alt+F2 then ctrl+alt+F7 to go back to the gui and restart.
[19:42] <Jack_Sparrow> PeterPan_: NP
[19:42] <sky`sunset> what is  casper?
[19:42] <jouke> _nix_: and what are the gnome logs?
[19:42] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: PLEASE GOOGLE UP THE TUTORIAL
[19:42] <_nix_> sky`sunset: casper.. is a codename
[19:42] <Jack_Sparrow> sorry for the caps
[19:42] <sky`sunset> i did
[19:42] <_nix_> jouke: dunno.. I don't run gnome.. sorry
[19:43] <ComPro> Scunzi - I've done that. I can load X just fine if I reconfigure it and set it to use VESA. If I run the reconfigure and choose FGLRX, I get the same problem.
[19:43] <Jock2> Does Ubuntu (Like Windows) get slower or something after installing and uninstalling several applications, such as VirtualBox, Wine etc?
[19:43] <LtEmerpoc> hey im configuring or whatever.. what do i do about this keyboard layout thingy
[19:43] <TheJedi2> can I use text based install from the normal live/install cd or do I need another cd?
[19:43] <w__> it works. Thanks.
[19:43] <PeterPan_> btw, is there something better that wine ? crossover .. i heard. is it?
[19:43] <jouke> heh >_<
[19:43] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, what would they appear as? there are 2 things under monitor section it has identifier "SAmtron" and option "DPMS" there are no rates what are the commands?
[19:43] <LtEmerpoc> so what do i type in?
[19:43] <Scunizi> ComPro, what I mean is to do the reset from within a direct TTY not a terminal from within the gui.
[19:43] <Flay> I'm doing an ls -l on a directory in xterm and the filenames are all colored green and the directory names are all blue on a green background. Does anyone know what this means?
[19:44] <arash_> peterpan_ do you mean visualisation?

[19:44] <_nix_> jouke: :-)
[19:44] <LtEmerpoc> ??
[19:44] <ComPro> Scunizi - I know. I've done that.
[19:44] <Adriaan> Hey, where can I find a package download page for ubuntu or debian?
[19:44] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: they will go just below dpms
[19:44] <atlef> Adriaan: getdeb
[19:44] <robdig> LtEmerpoc: what's your question?
[19:44] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: let me try and post an example
[19:44] <jcsteele> is anyone having problems with the forums?  I have tried to post a reply about 4 times now, and restarted firefox twice with no luck...usually just times out.  other pages are working fine.
[19:44] <_nix_> Adriaan: packages.ubuntu.com
[19:44] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, thanks :)
[19:44] <kane77> why can't I set password shorter than 6 chars?
[19:44] <LtEmerpoc> im configuring my xconf right now...
[19:45] <LtEmerpoc> and its asking me about my keyboard layout or something
[19:45] <Scunizi> ComPro, ok.. sorry.. I'm at a loss at this point.
[19:45] <krim> Jock2: I don't know about synaptic but I install everything in the terminal with aptitude and when you uninstall programs with aptitude later it removes all the other stuff that were installed alongside.
[19:45] <PeterPan_> arash_:  no
[19:45] <_nix_> kane77: I'd recommend against it but you can try sudo passwd <user>

[19:46] <sawq> Hey. I was told to install Vista then XP then Ubuntu if I wanted to triple boot. And that is what I did. However, now that I attempt to boot up the machine, it gives the grub boot loader with only vista as a choice, and when I choose vista the computer says missing hal.dll cannot continue. and I backed up up the hard drive before I installed Ubuntu.
[19:47] <sawq> And I need help
[19:47] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, thanks how do i know what mine are though?

[19:47] <Flay> void^: Thanks much! I was having trouble finding any details on that.
[19:47] <ibanez> there we go
[19:47] <Scunizi> ComPro, have you checked out the following..it has a section on res fix for ATI  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[19:47] <ibanez> much better ;p
[19:47] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: you need to be SURE of those values
[19:48] <kane77> _nix_, I consider this to be a success to persuade my father to use linux ;)
[19:48] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, ooh ok, how can i find these i barely found basic specs for this old cube lol
[19:48] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: If you are running an old CRT, you REALLY need to be careful.. else leave it alone
[19:48] <_nix_> kane77: that would be nice.. long and hard passwords are no use windows anyway ;-)
[19:49] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: You can burn up an old crt in a flash...
[19:49] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, is thisa the only way to get rid of blurry text then?
[19:49] <Jack_Sparrow> zazeem: or just run vesa
[19:49] <zazeem> jack_sparrow, on windows yesterday it was crystal clear
[19:49] <_nix_> Jack_Sparrow: burn an old crt.. oh yeah.. try *that* in windows.. another place where linux wins
[19:51] <Jack_Sparrow> _nix_: same difference, you can set the video output in windows and fry a crt...
[19:51] <ComPro> Scunizi: Yes, I've pretty much gone through all of that
[19:51] <Jack_Sparrow> windows must have the refresh rate
[19:52] <NewUserr> hi guys need your help when i try to install my printer it doesnt work and it crashes what should i do
[19:52] <_nix_> Jack_Sparrow: oh.. k never did that in windows (sigh)
[19:52] <Scunizi> ComPro, I'll be going through the same thing when I set my son's computer up with a 9600pro card.
[19:52] <LtEmerpoc> okay guys
[19:52] <Jack_Sparrow> _nix_: We had hundreds of users at my old ofice.  Never ceased to amaze me what they could do

[19:52] <LtEmerpoc> now what do i do about it.. restart x?
[19:53] <NewUserr> hi guys need your help when i try to install my printer it doesnt work and it crashes what should i do
[19:53] <Jack_Sparrow> NewUserr: do you have the printer on when you power up?
[19:53] <AngelsOfDestiny> is anyone having problems with the brightness applet. I believe that is what is giving me a problem.Everytime I dont have my laptop powered by AC, it turns the screen completely black, but once i plug it back it the screen goes back to normal, but it doesnt shutdown my comp completely. Can anyone help?
[19:53] <WorkingOnWise> myubuntu 7.10 laptop auto mounted an sd card a few days ago, now it doesnt even see it so i cant even mount i manually. any ideas?
[19:53] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: yes
[19:53] <SegheH> Ok. Who wants to help someone new? I would like to install Ubuntu but have a multi boot set up for xp as well.
[19:53] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: and connected over usb port
[19:53] <_nix_> Jack_Sparrow: people can be really amazing.. I'm only 18.. haven't seen much myself
[19:54] <Jack_Sparrow> WorkingOnWise: have you been careful to umount it before removing it?
[19:54] <Jack_Sparrow> NewUserr: what printer
[19:54] <NewUserr> hp printer
[19:54] <Jack_Sparrow> NewUserr: they made 1000's of models
[19:54] <WorkingOnWise> Jack_Sparrow: i dont think i did actually.
[19:55] <Jack_Sparrow> WorkingOnWise: does gparted see it or fdisk -l
[19:55] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: my printer was working well before had to install again ubuntu and now it doesnt work anymore :(
[19:55] <pop> Anyone who can take a look at my errormsg when I instert the ubuntu install CD and choose "start or install ubuntu" ?
[19:55] <RequinB4> can anyone tell me the difference between a drive and a mount
[19:55] <ComPro> how can i check the version of the fglrx driver?
[19:55] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: HP Photosmart C3180
[19:55] <capiira> anyone know where i can dl the tangerine icons ?
[19:56] <Jack_Sparrow> capgnome-look.org
[19:56] <sawq> Hey. I was told to install Vista then XP then Ubuntu if I wanted to triple boot. And that is what I did. However, now that I attempt to boot up the machine, it gives the grub boot loader with only vista as a choice, and when I choose vista the computer says missing hal.dll cannot continue. and I backed up up the hard drive before I installed Ubuntu.
[19:56] <Jack_Sparrow> capiira: gnome-look
[19:56] <threeseas> anyone have a good link to setting up LAMP for local use and dev?
[19:56] <sawq> ive waited 15 minutes and still no response...
[19:56] <lanius> hola
[19:56] <capiira> Jack_Sparrow, nothing there!
[19:57] <LiMaO> threeseas: apt-get install apache2 php5 mysql
[19:57] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: when i try to configure my printer it is not possible to read Printers database
[19:57] <LiMaO> threeseas: oh, and don't forget to install the php mysql module
[19:57] <Jack_Sparrow> sawq: You can try super grub reair cd
[19:58] <Jack_Sparrow> NewUserr: then you didnt get a clean install
[19:58] <Jack_Sparrow> if it cant find the cups database something isnt right
[19:58] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: what should i do then?
[19:58] <crazy6> how odd, if I leave "splash" as a boot param, X doesn't start properly (black screen), but if I take i tout, it's fine!
[19:58] <threeseas> LiMaO: that simple? I was looking for a web link
[19:58] <AngelsOfDestiny> Is there ways to add simple applets like weather and RSS feeds and such the way Mac OSX does?
[19:58] <NET||abuse> My housemate is trying to image a drive, he's using dd,, but that is taking ages,, if he's used just 3.5 GB of a 40GB is that going to create a 40GB image file?
[19:59] <MasterShrek> !screenlets
[19:59] <ubotu> Screenlets are little widgets for your !desktop. Note you must have !Compiz Fusion, !Beryl, xcompmgr, or KWin to run them. You can get them at http://www.screenlets.org/
[19:59] <NET||abuse> !dd
[19:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:59] <Jack_Sparrow> NewUserr: You can try reinstallng cups, or reinstall base system again, if one piece is missing, you may be missing other things as well
[19:59] <LiMaO> threeseas: don't need such a weblink. install those and you're ready to go. as i told you, search synaptic for php mysql module and install it too.
[19:59] <biatche1> Say I have one modem-router (<IP_ADDRESS>) which connects to the net via PPPOE (dynamic ip). I point DMZ to <IP_ADDRESS> (a router) and I setup NAT on the router. Well, any NAT would have to point to <IP_ADDRESS> since it won't know the public IP. Does traffic still get NAT'd in this case?
[19:59] <Jack_Sparrow> NET||abuse: depends on the command line he used
[19:59] <LiMaO> threeseas: then just configure stuff in /etc/apache2 - such as which port to listen to, where is your web server directory
[19:59] <Scunizi> AngelsOfDestiny, to add weather right mouse click the bar at the top of the screen and click add.  You'll see the appelate.
[20:00] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: and how does that work?
[20:00] <Jack_Sparrow> NET||abuse:  >!backup
[20:00] <AngelsOfDestiny> scunizi ok thanks, but isnt there some kind of applet manager where i can add more?
[20:00] <Jack_Sparrow> NewUserr: as in full install.
[20:00] <NewUserr> ok
[20:00] <Jack_Sparrow> !cups
[20:00] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[20:01] <NewUserr> Jack_Sparrow: thnx
[20:01] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[20:01] <LtEmerpoc> can someone please tell me the command to uninstall my video card drivers
[20:02] <Scunizi> AngelsOfDestiny, rss can be handled by FF. other stuff in gnome.. try the previous link (that isn't currently working) www.screenlets.org..
[20:02] <chymera> I'm getting an fdisk exit status 8 on startup, any ideas what that means?
[20:02] <tjl11> anyone know canonical's email or Mark's
[20:02] <Jack_Sparrow> LtEmerpoc: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:02] <LtEmerpoc> already did that..
[20:02] <AngelsOfDestiny> scunizi thanks
[20:02] <WorkingOnWise> Jack_Sparrow: gparted only shows my sda hard drive.
[20:02] <LtEmerpoc> but then again i dont really know what im doing..
[20:02] <Tikiman49> I need a hand, when someone has a second
[20:02] <regius> hi i can't install X11::GUITest in perl, I get the error "/usr/bin/make -- NOT OK"
[20:02] <Jack_Sparrow> LtEmerpoc: so... it is what you set it to..  vesa is the generic driver
[20:03] <regius> it's a fresh ubuntu installation
[20:03] <Duxter> can someone guide me on how to make a localized ubuntu 7.10 live cd?
[20:03] <Jack_Sparrow> WorkingOnWise: you will need to know what the partition type was on that card/drive
[20:03] <Jack_Sparrow> !ask
[20:03] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[20:03] <D4rkB34n> what is better: 1. Install OpenOffice from the official download at openoffice.org or 2. Install from Synaptic?
[20:03] <LtEmerpoc> jack you know what the problem has beenn... its my resolution.,. i want to change it.. but i want it to be 1280x1024
[20:03] <regius> D4rkB34n, synaptic
[20:03] <MasterShrek> synaptic
[20:03] <LtEmerpoc> earlier yesterday it was at 1280x1024
[20:04] <tjl11> the reason I ask for their email is because of this toolkit(http://universitytoolkit.org/) which is based on Xubuntu, but no source availble.
[20:04] <D4rkB34n> Why Synaptic?
[20:04] <LtEmerpoc> and now it just wont go back
[20:04] <WorkingOnWise> Jack_Sparrow: it is fat. windows xp and vista can both see and rw the card.
[20:04] <Jack_Sparrow> LtEmerpoc: You need to setup your video card AND your monitor info using that command, try to run it with startx   and if it dosent work try another setting
[20:04] <chymera> i'm getting fdisk exit status 8 on startup and can't mount any of my drives except my filesystem.... any ideas how to fix that?
[20:04] <sasuke> how can i install a programm (like eclipse) without apt?
[20:04] <WorkingOnWise> Jack_Sparrow: on a different laptop
[20:04] <Tikiman> Right, so I'm trying to install linux for the first time. I've got the ubuntu 7.10 cd and have already unallocated 30gb on my OS hdd... but when I go to Start/Install Ubuntu.... it either freezes on an orange screen or goes to black after a few mins
[20:05] <sasuke> when i already downloaded it and dont find an install?
[20:05] <LtEmerpoc> startx is what?
[20:05] <NET||abuse> Jack_Sparrow, sorry, i didn't get a message from ubotu there..
[20:05] <Zta_> Anyone here use scolily?  And can tell me how to make the abc-plugin work?
[20:05] <Jack_Sparrow> WorkingOnWise: do a scandisk on it or also look into your fstab to make sure something isnt messed up there
[20:05] <stefano> Jack_Sparrow, what's scandisk?
[20:05] <Jack_Sparrow> stefano: windows prog..
[20:06] <LtEmerpoc> what is startx?
[20:06] <infinitycircuit> !tsclient
[20:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about tsclient - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[20:06] <stefano> i like fsck, i like the name
[20:06] <stefano> :)
[20:06] <Jack_Sparrow> stefano: if he can see the drive with windows, want to check it with windows, since it is handy
[20:06] <stefano> yes that makes sense
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> LtEmerpoc: it is how you Start X  ie your gui... wm... etc
[20:07] <Tikiman> anyone? installation problems D:
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Ok, I need a break, play nice....

[20:11] <atlef> Patchak: you get it when it is updated in the repositories
[20:11] <bruenig> Patchak, wait for the package manager to update it if it ever does
[20:11] <bruenig> it might not
[20:11] <bruenig> Patchak, or get the tarball from firefox
[20:11] <Patchak> bruenig, there is no other way to force it?? I would have to reinstall or there is an updater?
[20:12] <bruenig> Patchak, it is installed in /usr/lib, which requires root...
[20:12] <c0reyf> Need help with samba, anybody?
[20:12] <Jack_Sparrow> Patchak: see what bruenig said....

[20:15] <c0reyf> Any samba help links for gusty
[20:15] <LtEmerpoc> what does that mean
[20:15] <davenull> Tikiman: sounds like a kernel panic, when you pop the disk in, press alt-f1 as soon as the orange bar comes up, look for errors
[20:15] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig thanks
[20:15] <chymera> it means
[20:15] <Tikiman> mmk I'll try that

[20:20] <RequinB4> ray_ backups?
[20:20] <drez> how do i add rar to ubuntu 7.04
[20:20] <buzzsaw> how do i go about searching for what programs are avalable for apt-get
[20:20] <bruenig> ray_, if you take stuff off of the end of the partition usually you can do that
[20:20] <juano__> drez: sudo apt-get install unrar
[20:20] <bruenig> !info unrar | drez
[20:20] <RequinB4> drez - you want to unrar things or make rar
[20:20] <graulich> erm, what's swiftweasel's command?
[20:20] <soundray> D4rkB34n: you need to supply a bit more information
[20:20] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, whoever packaged that did a poor job
[20:20] <Chimpo> Is there any irc channels for programming in linux? (c++ in particular)

[20:20] <ray_> no, i got rid of the windows partition on my hdd and now i want to resize my linux to the full hdd
[20:21] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, not the software itself, just the package
[20:21] <Jock2> When running Project64 under Wine, I get the error "err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection ..." when opening a ROM. Anyone who knows what can be wrong?
[20:21] <juano__> ray_: use gparted
[20:21] <Trixsey> What's the difference in uploading Binary or ASCII to an FTP?
[20:21] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, it should not be installing things into a home directory
[20:21] <btard> Hey. I was told to install Vista then XP then Ubuntu if I wanted to triple boot. And that is what I did. However, now that I attempt to boot up the machine, it gives the grub boot loader with only vista as a choice, and when I choose vista the computer says missing hal.dll cannot continue. and I backed up up the hard drive before I installed Ubuntu.
[20:21] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig ya, it didnt even work, thats why i uninstalled
[20:21] <D4rkB34n> soundray, nothing happens it only show the startup splash screen
[20:21] <drez> requinb4: i want to unrar
[20:21] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig do you know if this would work for gutsy   http://awn.wetpaint.com/page/Ubuntu+Feisty+Repository?t=anon
[20:21] <RequinB4> !unrar | drez
[20:21] <ubotu> drez: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[20:22] <soundray> D4rkB34n: can you open other OOo programs, e.g. oowriter?
[20:22] <musashi> I have set up RAID 1 (using nvidia onboard controller) and have installed the gutsy. However, i can't set the raid array to boot (there is an option but it's grayed out) and the system won't boot. any suggestions?
[20:22] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, I don't know, I wouldn't deal with third party debs myself
[20:22] <davenull> chymera: status 8 means that one of your drives didnt report itself, fsck will quit in that mode till you fix the drives
[20:22] <D4rkB34n> soundray, yes, i can open calc and writer
[20:22] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig for what reason?
[20:22] <MillerLite> why is my wifi card coming up as eth1? i have a dell latitude d420, and my wifi card wont work, can anyone hellp?
[20:22] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, dangerous
[20:23] <Tidus> musashi, nvidia's controllers are wha'ts called fake-raid controllers.
[20:23] <chymera> yes davenull, that was my question, how can i fix it?
[20:23] <Tidus> they are hardware, but they need the windows driver to boot it
[20:23] <chymera> i got this after a system lockup
[20:23] <dstadulis> I am trying to repartition my drive that I have ubuntu installed on, when I boot up the gparted livecd and try to resize the partition it says that the drive is in use but I haven't mounted it.   Who knows why e2fsck spits back that it's occupied
[20:23] <Tidus> MillerLite, mine comes up as eth1 too
[20:23] <bruenig> MillerLite, it doesn't matter that it is eth1
[20:23] <noerknhar> hi :D
[20:23] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig as in how?
[20:23] <btard> Hey. I was told to install Vista then XP then Ubuntu if I wanted to triple boot. And that is what I did. However, now that I attempt to boot up the machine, it gives the grub boot loader with only vista as a choice, and when I choose vista the computer says missing hal.dll cannot continue. and I backed up up the hard drive before I installed Ubuntu.
[20:23] <Ashfire908> i need help with reinstalling grub via th reconvery disc
[20:23] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, malicious scripts

[20:24] <musashi> Tidus, or explain why it's not working?
[20:24] <soundray> D4rkB34n: try this: quit all OOo programs, open a terminal and run 'ooimpress' from there. See if it logs any errors in the terminal.
[20:24] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig oh...now you got me scared,lol
[20:24] <Tidus> MillerLite, Dell inspiron 5100
[20:24] <bruenig> deluge is very unstable
[20:24] <ZEA> ubotu: I know. just doing a sort of survey :)
[20:24] <RequinB4> ZEA: at this point its all about your preferred UI
[20:24] <davenull> chymera: check your  drive connects and get back to me
[20:24] <MillerLite> Tidus, does your wifi card work?
[20:24] <Tidus> musashi, is ubuntu's setup seeing the array?
[20:24] <Ashfire908> every time i tell it to do it on /dev/sdb1, it fails with error code "1"
[20:24] <Tidus> MillerLite, yes it does
[20:24] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig should i scan my box?
[20:24] <juano__> Ashfire908: pastebin :  sudo fdisk -l  , and your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:24] <RequinB4> ZEA - ubotu is a program
[20:24] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, no, it will either happen during install or not at all

[20:25] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig oh
[20:25] <musashi> Tidus, during install it sees sda and sdb but no mention of raid - should there be?
[20:25] <ZEA> lol :x
[20:25] <MillerLite> bruenig, can u help me please?
[20:25] <Tidus> musashi, a true raid controller would only be showing sda ...
[20:25] <Ashfire908> juano__, results might be intresting... i'm on a live cd (but on the same comp
[20:25] <arash_> btard, the irony?
[20:25] <btard> yeah.............
[20:25] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, if you get through a deb and your system isn't hosed, then you have nothing to worry about, but debs come with preinstallation and post installation scripts that can run arbitrary code, so it could easily rm -rf /* if it wanted too
[20:25] <dstadulis> I am trying to repartition my drive that I have ubuntu installed on, when I boot up the gparted livecd and try to resize the partition it says that the drive is in use but I haven't mounted it.   Who knows why e2fsck spits back that it's occupied
[20:25] <chymera> davenull haow do i check that?
[20:25] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, if you stick with official stuff though, you don't have to worry about that
[20:25] <arash_> btard , how come it isnt working when u are writing here?
[20:25] <MillerLite> why is my wifi card coming up as eth1? i have a dell latitude d420, and my wifi card wont work, can anyone hellp?
[20:25] <chymera> *how
[20:26] <Tidus> MillerLite, what chipset is your ethernet card?
[20:26] <bruenig> MillerLite, get your mind passed it being named eth1, the naming scheme doesn't matter
[20:26] <btard> pardon?
[20:26] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig ya true, but avant is only 3rd party
[20:26] <btard> I'm on a second comp
[20:26] <RequinB4> MillerLite - it should work as eth1
[20:26] <Tidus> broadcom 43xx or 44xx ?
[20:26] <soundray> btard: you're not saying what you want. People aren't ignoring you, it's just hard to answer that type of question.
[20:26] <RequinB4> thats no the gproblem if it doesn't work
[20:26] <davenull> chymera: open the computer, look for loose plugs, happens more than i care to think about
[20:26] <btard> arash_: second computer
[20:26] <musashi> Tidus, short of buying a true raid controller, is there a simple way to make this work? i just want a mirror for backup
[20:26] <juano__> Ashfire908: is your root partition mounted ?
[20:26] <Tidus> musashi, software raid
[20:26] <arash_> btard , ok, what client isnt working?
[20:26] <MillerLite> how do i find out chipseT?
[20:26] <btard> wait a secon.
[20:26] <RequinB4> btard - use Xchat not pidgin
[20:26] <Tidus> MillerLite, go to a terminal, type sudo lspci
[20:26] <MillerLite> its a dell laititude d420,
[20:26] <bruenig> AngelsOfDestiny, I would build it from source if I had to, a package is included on the distro I use so I don't have to worry about that
[20:27] <chymera> davenull lol no, it's not the case....
[20:27] <raving> I've got a fresh alternate CD install of gutsy and am unable to get apt to authenticate packages from archive.canonical.com. Does anybody know where I can acquire a key file for that repository?
[20:27] <musashi> Tidus, meaning i should scrap the nvidia raid, set up normally and then install software raid? or would i still keep the nvidia setup set up?
[20:27] <MillerLite> its a wlan-minipci?
[20:27] <AngelsOfDestiny> bruenig oh.
[20:27] <Ashfire908> juano__, is now...
[20:27] <davenull> chymera:  try running fsck
[20:28] <btard> What do I need to change in order to get all 3 of the working correctly. I am willing t try anything as my disk is backed up as an image completely.
[20:28] <Tidus> musashi, scrap the nvraid stuff.  during setup you can set up software raid fairly quick and painless
[20:28] <ComPro> what would cause fglrx to stop working? last night after a reboot, it wouldn't load X properly, so today, i reformatted and started from scratch, and fglrx still will not load X properly. it falls back to vesa.
[20:28] <Tidus> MillerLite, lspci will tell you the chipset of the card
[20:28] <btard> and I am so sorry, im exhausted and I didnt even notice i forgot to finish the question
[20:28] <juano__> Ashfire908: which is your root partiion, /dev/hd?

[20:28] <Tidus> MillerLite, you'll need ndiswrapper and the windows drivers to make that one work
[20:28] <arash_> btard:  still I want to know what client you are using, maybe you should cahnge client
[20:28] <bruenig> MillerLite, broadcom
[20:29] <Tidus> MillerLite, my wlan card is based on the BCM4300
[20:29] <musashi> Tidus, shoot. i was hoping the nvidia stuff would be simple and cool - just doing it in the background. okay, are you saying that while installing gutsy i can also set up software raid? i've never seen an option for that.
[20:29] <chymera> davenull, here
[20:29] <chymera> http://pastebin.com/m7108a79b
[20:29] <Tidus> musashi, it's on the alternate cd
[20:29] <musashi> ah,
[20:29] <MillerLite> Tidus, is mine a broacom?
[20:29] <Tidus> MillerLite, yes it is
[20:29] <ray_> gparted wont let me resize my partiton for linux, because it is mounted any other options?
[20:29] <soundray> btard: that dll thing is a Windows problem. Ask in a Windows channel. To get a grub boot entry for XP, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add a boot entry for it. There is a sample for Windows at the top of the file.
[20:29] <Tidus> MillerLite, 0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM94311MCG wlan mini-PCI (rev 01)
[20:29] <chymera> ray_ unmnount it
[20:30] <btard> arash_: what do you mean client
[20:30] <davenull> chymera: that sucks
[20:30] <MillerLite> so i should download the xp drivers for it, and run it with wine and it will work?
[20:30] <nirgle> this worked a couple weeks ago for me and suddenly now is giving me this error message on a fresh install:
[20:30] <nirgle> nirgle@ubuntu:~/icarus$ sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
[20:30] <nirgle> Reading package lists... Done
[20:30] <nirgle> Building dependency tree
[20:30] <nirgle> Reading state information... Done
[20:30] <nirgle> E: Couldn't find package libncurses5-dev
[20:30] <Tidus> no, you'll download the xp drivers, and set it up thru ndiswrapper.
[20:30] <raph> hi, the ext3 fs on my external hd is partly broken. Some files i could simply copy to a backup partition, others stop copying with an error msg (something like "reading of file not possible"). Is there a way to get the corrupt data back?
[20:30] <AllNicksAreTaken> hi folks
[20:30] <musashi> Tidus, is that the only way or can i install normally and then add the raid stuff afterwards? seeing as how it's already installed and i don't have the alternate cd :)
[20:30] <ComPro> what would cause fglrx to stop working? last night after a reboot, it wouldn't load X properly, so today, i reformatted and started from scratch, and fglrx still will not load X properly. it falls back to vesa.
[20:30] <nirgle> did the package change names or?
[20:30] <Tidus> it's under system -> Administration -> Windows wireless drivers
[20:30] <ray_> that partition is what i am running right now
[20:30] <btard> soundray: ok i'll try that
[20:30] <chymera> davenull, the drives are still there... any ideas?
[20:30] <ray_> if i were to use the live cd would that work?
[20:30] <davenull> chymera: have anything important on them?
[20:31] <chymera> ray_yes
[20:31] <Tidus> musashi, you won't be able to add it later because it requires certain type of partitions...
[20:31] <arash_> btard: what program do you use for irc? ,eh, one second. what'r ur problem? isn't it that irc isn't working for you?
[20:31] <btard> oh, XChat
[20:31] <MillerLite> Tidus:  so i should download the xp drivers for it, and run it with wine and it will work?
[20:31] <btard> it isn't the irc that is the problem
[20:31] <btard> tho
[20:31] <Tidus> MillerLite, no, you wont use wine
[20:31] <chymera> davenull of course, not anything but everything, their intact, as far as i know its the table that got fucked up
[20:31] <btard> I'm fine. Soundray helped me.
[20:31] <btard> Thanks tho
[20:31] <arash_> btard: then dont say that that is your problem. It just causes confusion
[20:32] <MillerLite> what should i use?
[20:32] <Tidus> MillerLite, you'll use the windows wireless drivers tool that i pointed to you.  system -> Administration -> windows wireless drivers
[20:32] <soundray> btard: make sure you add any new entry after the line that begins ### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC...
[20:32] <chymera> davenull, i started discussing this case on the forums but somewhy my partner died out, ahve a look http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=622404
[20:32] <soundray> *begins with
[20:32] <musashi> Tidus, okay. guess i'll be downloading the alternate cd. one last question, is the software raid an okay way to go? i mean is it relatively stable and problem free running in the background or will i need to "mess" with it a lot?
[20:33] <Tidus> musashi, i've got a headless server with 3 disks in software raid5... been stable for a year now
[20:33] <AllNicksAreTaken> can anyone help me getting my wireless connection to work? I was using Ubuntu/Xubuntu 7.04 before and my wireless connection worked fine. After a clean install of Ubuntu 7.10 I am unable to connect to my network
[20:33] <Tidus> musashi, software raid is done in the background by the linux kernel... so if the kernel's relatively stable... then so will your raid :)
[20:34] <Tidus> AllNicksAreTaken, what chipset is your wireless card?
[20:34] <chymera> any ideas davenull ?
[20:34] <flithm> hey everyone... anyone know what package the opengl man pages are in?
[20:34] <AllNicksAreTaken> good question. I forgot what chipset it had. Is there a way to find out?
[20:34] <ibanez> lol
[20:34] <Ashfire908> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45833/
[20:34] <Tidus> AllNicksAreTaken, lspci
[20:34] <soundray> D4rkB34n: how are you getting on?
[20:34] <davenull> chymera: this could be a bad day for you, fsck -v, pastebin me the output
[20:34] <Ashfire908> juano__, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45833/
[20:35] <musashi> Tidus, cool. thanks for the help. i guess the raid controller on my edubuntu server at work is a fancy hardware controller. should have known that a $200 mobo wouldn't have the same
[20:35] <Tidus> musashi, most sata raid chipsets aren't true raid.
[20:35] <MillerLite> Tidus: so i should download the broadcom Corp BCM94311MCG  , then run the windows wifi installer?
[20:35] <Tidus> yes
[20:35] <killroy_2> question: I want to buy either a USB or PCMCIA NIC for my lappy.  I am looking for recommendations for a product that is known to work well with gutsy
[20:35] <chymera> same thing davenull, blabla bad format on the same lines
[20:35] <MeTrOiD014|Kevin> Can someone help me with permissions in ubuntu?
[20:35] <Tidus> killroy_2, the netgear FA120 usb wired ethernet works fine
[20:36] <soundray> MeTrOiD014|Kevin: you need to say what the problem is.
[20:36] <AllNicksAreTaken> Tidus: oh yeah, it's an USB wifi stick. lsusb gives me: id 0b05:1706
[20:36] <MeTrOiD014|Kevin> Sure
[20:36] <killroy_2> wireless
[20:36] <killroy_2> Tidus: sorry, I meant to state that I need wireless
[20:36] <soundray> Tidus: what's "true raid"?
[20:36] <Tidus> killroy_2, oh.  my linksys WPC54GS works fine with ndiswrapper
[20:36] <MeTrOiD014|Kevin> I want to edit some files on my ipod but it says I dont have the permission to do so
[20:36] <davenull> chymera: well, never used it, but fsck -p is automatic repair, might kill the part table, might fix it. my best guess
[20:36] <chymera> the fact davenull, that is i changed some things in my fstab, uncommented the lines of the partitions and deleted the UDII tags or what their called, so i won't get the error at startup.... but it still didn't fix my mount problem
[20:36] <Tidus> it's pcmcia
[20:36] <musashi> Tidus, i suppose you would need to buy a fancy controller. i'll go software and see what happens
[20:36] <Tidus> AllNicksAreTaken, i guess you'd have to use ndiswrapper with the windows drivers for it
[20:36] <flithm> MeTrOiD014|Kevin: permissions isn't an ubuntu thing... try #linuxhelp maybe or google "unix permissions"
[20:36] <D4rkB34n> soundray, bad.... nothing happen
[20:37] <soundray> MeTrOiD014|Kevin: open the editor with sudo or gksudo, e.g. 'gksudo gedit'
[20:37] <juano__> Ashfire908: hd0,4 for your linux partition
[20:37] <MeTrOiD014|Kevin> kk
[20:37] <davenull> Tidus: what kind of card, and what ubuntu version?
[20:37] <juano__> Ashfire908: and for ntfs partition if its xp hd0,1
[20:37] <Tidus> davenull, my wireless card?
[20:37] <chymera> davenull, what happens if i kill the partition table?
[20:37] <chymera> do i loose the data?
[20:37] <MeTrOiD014|Kevin> soundray: kk
[20:37] <Ashfire908> juano__, i know the it's incorrect
[20:37] <chymera> or just the partitioning?
[20:37] <Ashfire908> *its
[20:37] <Tidus> davenull, Linksys WPC54GS (Wireless-G with SpeedBooster), ubuntu gutsy
[20:38] <davenull> chymera: lol, total annihilation
[20:38] <soundray> D4rkB34n: something may be wrong with your user configuration. Try 'mv ~/.openoffice.org2 ~/oooconfig-backup' and try again. This will start over with a new config.
[20:38] <juano__> Ashfire908: sda5 is your / partition right ?
[20:38] <killroy_2> Tidus: see, now, my lappy has an Intel PRO wireless 2100 but I'm getting a firmware issue, so I have a WPC54G ver 4.0 PCMCIA but I can't get the system to recognize it.  I've installed drivers with ndiswrapper and ran the modprobe, but I never get a device.  Of course, I haven't turned off the internal nic.  What might I be doing wrong?  Can you recommend a link to assist with setup?
[20:38] <AllNicksAreTaken> Tidus: the default drivers on Ubuntu 7.04 worked fine though. Are there any known wlan0 problems with Ubuntu 7.10 ?
[20:38] <juano__> Ashfire908: that would be hd0,4 in grub
[20:38] <davenull> Tidus: is it a broadcom chipset, lspci
[20:38] <Tidus> killroy_2, that should be TI ACX chipset
[20:38] <Tidus> which has linux drivers
[20:38] <gi> ciao a tutti
[20:38] <Tidus> AllNicksAreTaken, i haven't had issues
[20:38] <juano__> Ashfire908: are you able to boot into ubuntu or ntfs/windows ?
[20:38] <AllNicksAreTaken> hmm
[20:38] <MillerLite> Tidus: so i should download the broadcom Corp BCM94311MCG  , then run the windows wifi installer?
[20:38] <Tidus> MillerLite, yes
[20:39] <Tidus> killroy_2, my other pcmcia wlan card is a WPC54G version 4
[20:39] <MillerLite> Tidus: where do i find driver?
[20:39] <Tidus> and this one's a WPC54GS v2
[20:39] <tapas> i'm installing ubuntu here on a friends computer.. ii upgraded from the gutsy beta cd i had to current gutsy
[20:39] <tapas> and installed the nvidia driver
[20:39] <Tidus> MillerLite, i'd say try broadcom's website
[20:39] <AllNicksAreTaken> is it possible that IPv6 might be giving issues?
[20:39] <Tidus> AllNicksAreTaken, not entirely sure
[20:39] <tapas> and now 3d acceleration works.. yay..
[20:40] <tapas> but resolution is gone down to 640 x 480
[20:40] <tapas> :(
[20:40] <foug> When I order something from the Ubuntu, where does it ship from? And it can ship to the states, correct?
[20:40] <killroy_2> Tidus: are you saying that I shouldn't need to ndiswrapper then with the WPC54G v4.0 PCMCIA?  And if not, how do I get it to be recognized in gutsy?  I've got the power light lit, so clearly it's powered up, but when I ifconfig I only see eth0 and eth1 (my wired and internal wireless) and no additiona devices...
[20:40] <soundray> AllNicksAreTaken: I've got trouble with wifi on 7.10, too. Disabling ipv6 improved it a bit.
[20:40] <tapas> also i cannot find te ndiswrapper module for the 2.6.22-14-generic kernel
[20:40] <tapas> it should be installed, but cannot be found...
[20:40] <AllNicksAreTaken> soundray: great you just got my hopes up. I'll be checking it out right now
[20:41] <soundray> !ipv6 | AllNicksAreTaken
[20:41] <ubotu> AllNicksAreTaken: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[20:41] <D4rkB34n> soundray, nothing again, i'll install from the original download, first i'll remove from synaptic
[20:41] <Tidus> killroy_2, yeah, you shouldn't need ndiswrapper.  it should be a Texas Instruments ACX111 chipset which is supported by default in gutsy
[20:41] <foug> When I order something from the Ubuntu, where does it ship from? And it can ship to the states, correct?
[20:41] <soundray> AllNicksAreTaken: I still get the occasional dropped connection, though.
[20:41] <AllNicksAreTaken> thanks. I was just searching on google
[20:41] <soundray> D4rkB34n: hold on
[20:42] <D4rkB34n> soundray, i'm downloading ooo_2.3.0_linuxintel_install_deb.tar.gz
[20:42] <AllNicksAreTaken> soundray: do you happen to have a Linksys WRT54G ?
[20:42] <davenull> Tidus: ive got a few different chipset cards, never needed to go to ndiswrapper
[20:42] <MillerLite> tidus, broadcom doesnt make a  BCM94311MCG
[20:42] <soundray> AllNicksAreTaken: I do indeed
[20:42] <juano__> Ashfire908: something like this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45836/
[20:42] <killroy_2> Tidus: ok, then shouldn't I see the device in my network device list?
[20:42] <YoungBalls> what up with it
[20:42] <D4rkB34n> soulrider, i tryed to reinstall from synaptic, but crashes
[20:43] <dstadulis> I am trying to repartition my drive that I have ubuntu installed on, when I boot up the gparted livecd and try to resize the partition it says that the drive is in use but I haven't mounted it.   Who knows why e2fsck spits back that it's occupied
[20:43] <Tidus> killroy_2, lspci it and see what chipset it's using
[20:43] <soundray> D4rkB34n: if you suspect your installation, the first thing you should try is "sudo apt-get --reinstall install openoffice.org-impress"
[20:43] <killroy_2> tidus ok, will do
[20:43] <D4rkB34n> soundray, yap.... thanks
[20:43] <Ashfire908> juano__, you don't understand do you. i'm trying to install grub on a jump drive via the grub reinstall in the recovery mode on the alternate cd.
[20:43] <killroy_2> Tidus: but assuming it is the TI chipset, is there anything I need to do to get the device initiated?
[20:43] <SmileyChris> so if I'm installing an app just for my own user, where's the normal place to keep it?
[20:44] <AllNicksAreTaken> soundray: I've been searching around on the internet and found out a lot of people have issues with it. It's some sort of firmware problem. I decided to put the DD-WRT (micro) firmware on it and it's been working fine since.
[20:44] <davenull> SmileyChris: usr/bin
[20:44] <Tidus> google is your friend on that one. i'm not entirely sure on the steps to fix tiacx
[20:44] <Ryan_was_here> hey, can anyone direct me to some gkrellm skins? My theme is black/green and it just doesn't wok. I have checked gnome-look.org and art.gnome.org and google, but can't seem to find any.
[20:44] <AllNicksAreTaken> Had to power cycle the router everyday before
[20:44] <juano__> Ashfire908: ok, should of told me first :P
[20:44] <juano__> Ashfire908: thought you were trying to install grub back on mbr
[20:44] <Ashfire908> juano__, lol no
[20:44] <soundray> AllNicksAreTaken: I've got OpenWrt firmware on it, but it's a bit outdated. I'll try upgrading that -- thanks for the tip!
[20:44] <juano__> Ashfire908: and that you couldn't boot
[20:44] <chymera> davenull, still here?=
[20:45] <davenull> chymera: yup
[20:45] <Jock2> Newest version of Wine is 0.9.49 but I have version 0.9.46. However, when I right-click my Wine installation in Synaptic Package Manager the "Mark for upgrade" is greyed out. Does that mean I can't upgrade?
[20:45] <PeterPan_>  can any one recomend a good dictionary to install ?
[20:45] <AllNicksAreTaken> soundray: you're welcome. You better do some good reading about DD-WRT first. Only DD-WRT micro works on it unfortunately (at least, on my WRT54G v5.1)
[20:45] <chymera> davenull i reverted to my commented fstab file
[20:45] <chymera> heres the output
[20:45] <chymera> of
[20:45] <chymera> fsck -v
[20:45] <chymera> http://pastebin.com/m7ba7edee
[20:46] <Tupsik> what's the current version of ubuntu?
[20:46] <joshua__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45837/  hey all I have a problem with my sudo command
[20:46] <RequinB4> !enter | chymera
[20:46] <ubotu> chymera: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[20:46] <soundray> AllNicksAreTaken: I have an older one with more memory, so it'll be fine. I'll get a newer version of OpenWrt -- don't feel like switching to DD quite yet.
[20:46] <AllNicksAreTaken> =)
[20:47] <crashoverride> hello?
[20:47] <SmileyChris> davenull: so eg, eclipse: I put the whole eclipse folder in usr/bin?

[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Jock2: It means it has not been brought back.. If you MUST have the latest you need to get it outside
[20:47] <soundray> Jock2: Ubuntu packages are well tested with the distribution, but they aren't always the latest. You can install a more recent version by adding the winehq repository for debian-based distributions to your sources.list
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> !webcam
[20:47] <Tupsik> what's the current version of ubuntu?

[20:48] <Ashfire908> juano__, yes
[20:48] <soundray> joshua__: what's the problem?
[20:48] <SmileyChris> davenull: thought there might be some sort of folder which is the norm to put it in
[20:48] <Ashfire908> juano__, updated menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45839/
[20:49] <joshua__> soundray,  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45837/
[20:49] <Jock2> Jack_Sparrow and soundray: Thanks for explaining!
[20:49] <soundray> joshua__: please run 'visudo' and paste the contents of the file
[20:49] <davenull> SmileyChris: thats what i do, dont know if thats the best way, but if you go to nautilus and in view select view hidden, lots of apps are installed there
[20:49] <juano__> Ashfire908: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb
[20:49] <Tupsik> if I upgrade from 7.04 directly, how much MB will be downloaded?
[20:49] <juano__> Ashfire908: tried that ?
[20:49] <SmileyChris> AngelsOfDestiny: so run avant-window-navigator from terminal and see what the error is - probably you're not using a compositing manager
[20:50] <juano__> Ashfire908: that give you error code 1 ?
[20:50] <soundray> Tupsik: that depends on how many and which packages you have installed.
[20:50] <AngelsOfDestiny> smileychris i was under the impression it works with compiz
[20:50] <wickedsmaat> !HELLO -- I'm using "Synaptic Package Manager", trying to uninstall things that "couldnt" be taken out with "Add/Remove Programs" app. Some things I'm trying to take out say they'll also uninstall the "Ubuntu-Desktop". Is this going to crash my system, or is this nothing to worry about???
[20:50] <joshua__> soundray,  I get the same error
[20:50] <SmileyChris> AngelsOfDestiny: it should
[20:50] <Joe90> Anybody with ltsp experience 7.10?

[20:50] <sauvin> joshua__, pastebin your /etc/sudoers file
[20:50] <Ashfire908> juano__, let me try
[20:50] <joshua__> sauvin, I cant get access to it
[20:50] <bluefox83> wickedsmaat, ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage, it wont hurt anything to remove it
[20:51] <AngelsOfDestiny> smileychris ya there ya go it works in terminal and not wit the icon for some reasob
[20:51] <soundray> Tupsik: it'll be something between 300 and 500 MB then, I reckon
[20:51] <crazy6> ok, so, when I open a torrent via firefox, there isn't an option to open it with ktorrent, and I always have ot type in /usr/bin/ktorrent .. is tihs fixable?
[20:51] <SmileyChris> AngelsOfDestiny: weird
[20:51] <crashoverride> apparently my webcam isnt supported
[20:51] <rem_> ..
[20:51] <crashoverride> so i cant really do anything?
[20:51] <ibanez> hey you guys know that command like gxgears
[20:51] <wickedsmaat> BLUEFOX83 ==> So, various things can "Remove" it and I'm not going to loose my system???
[20:51] <elementz> hi everybody
[20:51] <ibanez> that shows you frames per second ?
[20:51] <danny3793_> How can i setup MythTV to recognize my happauge card?
[20:51] <sauvin> joshua__, you may have to boot a livecd then, in order to mount the partition that file is on.
[20:51] <snama> glxgears
[20:51] <ibanez> glxgears
[20:51] <juano__> ibanez: yes
[20:51] <Jack_Sparrow> crashoverride: they are not expensive, sell yours off
[20:52] <ibanez> thanks :D
[20:52] <AngelsOfDestiny> smileychris ya
[20:52] <soundray> joshua__: try booting in recovery mode then (grub boot option) and fix it with 'nano /etc/sudoers'
[20:52] <Ashfire908> juano__, ok got a chroot set up. what command?
[20:52] <crashoverride> lol, mine was $1
[20:52] <elementz> accidentally deleted a few files on my desktop, is there a way to easily recover them from the console?
[20:52] <juano__> Ashfire908: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb
[20:52] <soundray> elementz: no
[20:52] <joshua__>  sauvin  soundray , is there a way I can login into x as root?
[20:52] <dstadulis> I am trying to repartition my drive that I have ubuntu installed on, when I boot up the gparted livecd and try to resize the partition it says that the drive is in use but I haven't mounted it.   Who knows why e2fsck spits back that it's occupied
[20:52] <crashoverride> well thanks mucho
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> elementz: look in ./Trash
[20:53] <sauvin> in ubuntu? I don't think so, not without heroic surgery.
[20:53] <wickedsmaat> BLUEFOX83 ==> So, various things can "Remove" it and I'm not going to loose my system???
[20:53] <juano__> joshua__: if the root account is enabled yes, username root and root pass
[20:53] <joshua__>  sauvin  soundray , Im not quite sure how to fix the sudoers file
[20:53] <bluefox83> wickedsmaat, correct
[20:53] <Ashfire908> juano__, i'm already root :). i get an error which i assume is caused by the device map
[20:53] <wickedsmaat> BLUEFOX83 ==> great, thanks!
[20:53] <sauvin> joshua__, I'd do it from a livecd.
[20:53] <soundray> joshua__: no, but if you follow sauvin's live CD suggestion, you can fix it from a graphical environment
[20:53] <chazco> Hi... anyone able to help with: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=608760 ?
[20:53] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: thats an odd problem.. i've used partedmagic a lot, never had that issue.
[20:53] <snama> you must allow root to login through gdm in login window settings
[20:53] <windego40> hello all
[20:54] <snama> but there its called system administrator
[20:54] <dstadulis> IndyGunFreak: Thanks I'll try that out
[20:54] <joshua__>  sauvin  soundray , I see just copy the livecd sudoers file into the old one?
[20:54] <juano__> Ashfire908: post the error
[20:54] <soundray> joshua__: if you can get internet access from the live system, you can pastebin your sudoers and ask for help here.
[20:54] <windego40> anyone here know how to mount a usb scandisk?
[20:54] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: parted magic/gparted are basically the same thing.
[20:54] <soundray> joshua__: no
[20:55]  * sauvin mounts his ubuntu partition and has a look
[20:55] <PeterPan_>  can any one recomend a good dictionary to install ?
[20:55] <joshua__>  sauvin  soundray , Ok I will boot the livecd and come back
[20:55] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: why don't you just use the installer to partition your drive?
[20:55] <soundray> juano__: please don't ever recommend enabling root, and especially running X as root.
[20:55] <juano__> soundray: i didnt recommend, i answered his question
[20:56] <milka> how can i update amsn ?
[20:56] <Ashfire908> juano__, let be try somethingnfirst
[20:56] <milka> plz
[20:56] <soundray> juano__: that boils down to the same thing.
[20:56] <juano__> soundray: is it possible ? yes i said
[20:56] <sauvin> wow, the ubuntu sudoers file is simple enough: %admin ALL=(ALL) ALL
[20:56] <juano__> soundray: he didnt ask should i ? he asked if it was possible
[20:56] <AngelsOfDestiny> smileychris does awn start at bootup?
[20:56] <dstadulis> IndyGunFreak: are you talking about the ubuntu install disk?
[20:56] <juano__> Ashfire908: ok
[20:56] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: yes.
[20:56] <Jack_Sparrow> soundray: juano__ has been told he is on thin ice with that
[20:56] <soundray> juano__: I was in a conversation with him, and you barged in with advice that would have been very bad if he had followed it.
[20:57] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: as you're going through the install process, it will allow you to partition the drive before installing
[20:57] <joshua__>  sauvin  soundray , juano__  I did ask I figured that I could acceszs the /etc/sudoers file that way
[20:57] <SmileyChris> AngelsOfDestiny: nope
[20:57] <sauvin> joshua__, in what way?
[20:57] <Ashfire908> juano__, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45840/
[20:57] <IndyGunFreak> milka: is the current version in the repositories?
[20:57] <dstadulis> IndyGunFreak: I'm running ubuntu studio
[20:57] <milka> hoi don't know
[20:57] <juano__> soundray: i didnt barge in in anything dude, nice attitude by the way
[20:57] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: oh ok, sorry, can't help you.
[20:57] <milka> but how can i uopdate
[20:57] <sky`sunset> can some one tell me how to save changes to my usb while i am using live ubuntu7.10 cd?
[20:57] <dstadulis> IndyGunFreak: and it doesn't have a livecd
[20:58] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: oh ok.
[20:58] <milka> sudo apt-get update amsn ???
[20:58] <SmileyChris> AngelsOfDestiny: system > preferences > sessions, put it in startup programs
[20:58] <juano__> soundray: just helpin out didnt mean to hurt your feelings sheesh
[20:58] <joshua__>  sauvin  soundray , juano__  Well I can't get access to the sudoers file without root permission
[20:58] <ActySofts> is there an official torrent containing an ubuntu i386 iso?
[20:58] <AllNicksAreTaken> I'm considering to switch back to 7.04
[20:58] <IndyGunFreak> milka: i doubt it.
[20:58] <soundray> juano__: I take it very badly when people spoil my good advice with bad.
[20:58] <sauvin> joshua__, are you in the livecd yet?
[20:58] <AngelsOfDestiny> smileychris thanks
[20:58] <sky`sunset> how can i save changes to my usb while i am using ubuntu 7.10 live cd?
[20:58] <Jack_Sparrow> milka: If synaptic does not have it then you need to do it manually..  but please backup everything if you are new to linux
[20:58] <soundray> joshua__: use gksudo gedit
[20:58] <IndyGunFreak> milka: if the updated version isn't int he repositories, then running the update command, won't do anything
[20:58] <dstadulis> IndyGunFreak: I just downloaded the last versions of both gparted and partedmagic, going to give new version of gparted one last chance and then try partedmagic thanks for you hel[
[20:58] <joshua__>  sauvin  soundray , juano__  In other words booting as root wqould allow me to pastebin the contents
[20:58] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: I linked a line by line tutorial earlier..
[20:58] <IndyGunFreak> dstadulis: np, hope you get it worked out.
[20:59] <milka> ok .. thx Indy --
[20:59] <joshua__>  sauvin  no I am still looking for the cd
[20:59] <sky`sunset> it didnt work
[20:59] <sauvin> joshua__, ubuntu doesn't ship with the root account formally enabled.
[20:59] <milka> ;-)
[20:59] <sky`sunset> not f6
[20:59] <sky`sunset> i tried
[20:59] <juano__> soundray: what do you know about advice beeing good or bad ? plus i didnt give anyone bad advice on anything dude, i just told him it was posible i didnt say it was right or wrong ok ? if he would of asked to do it i would tell him to !sudo
[20:59] <sky`sunset> i mean i didnt want to install the ubuntu into my usb
[20:59] <D4rkB34n> soundray, nothing happens
[20:59] <joshua__> sauvin i see
[20:59] <kriel> is this user error, or did i forget to install something?   kriel@rea:~/code$ gcc hello.cpp
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: did you setup your usb stick?
[20:59] <kriel> gcc: error trying to exec 'cc1plus': execvp: No such file or directory
[20:59] <sky`sunset> i just use my usb to save the changes
[20:59] <danny3793_> is there a way to get my happauge card to work so i can record TV/Gaming?
[20:59] <sky`sunset> no
[20:59] <mandrill> cam I reinstall Ubuntu over VNC?
[20:59] <ActySofts> Is there an official torrent for the Ubuntu i386 ISO?
[20:59] <soundray> juano__: I appreciate you have your own opinion about this, and I will refrain from continuing this discussion.
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> Then you didnt bother reading ANYTHING
[20:59] <sky`sunset> i just want to boot from the cd
[21:00] <sky`sunset> and save the changes to my usb
[21:00] <sauvin> soundray, spoken like a true diplomat :D
[21:00] <IndyGunFreak> ActySofts: sure there are.... http://www.ubuntu.com has lists of servers w/ torrents
[21:00] <joshua__> soundray,  I get the same error when attempting gksudo edit
[21:00] <sky`sunset> i searched online already
[21:00] <hangthedj> how do i turn off the password protection for when i come back from suspend?
[21:00] <soundray> D4rkB34n: sorry, I don't have any other suggestions.
[21:00] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: Right, and you were given instructions which you ignore.. and come back again
[21:00] <juano__> soundray: same here.. i hate it when people think they know it all and start stomping on others
[21:00] <juano__> soundray: btw
[21:00] <soundray> joshua__: gksudo gedit is for when you're on a live system.
[21:00] <juano__> soundray: for no particular reason that is
[21:00] <sauvin> juano__, why don't you go get yourself another beer?
[21:01] <joshua__> soundray, ok
[21:01] <joshua__> be back

[21:07] <tonyyarusso> B-rabbit: your hotmail password
[21:07] <AutoMatriX> bruenig, :D
[21:07] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: No. not unless you add a second partition on the same usb
[21:07] <juano__> Ashfire908: missed it.. ok.. mm doesnt seem to be able to find a place to install on sdb
[21:07] <Raff7> hi ubunt-user

[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> sky`sunset: NOt trying to be a pin..
[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> pain
[21:08] <Ashfire908> juano__, that error refers to array 0, drive 0, partition 1.
[21:08] <sky`sunset> lol
[21:08] <sauvin> sky`sunset, I just tuned in (sort of) to what you're asing. What is your usb device, and what are you trying to do with it again, please?
[21:08] <sky`sunset> usb is kinston
[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> sauvin: check the link about persistent on usb
[21:09] <Ashfire908> juano__, i moved this stuff from a server that i own
[21:09] <sauvin> Jack_Sparrow, that link scrolled off.
[21:09] <B-rabbit> tonyyarusso: i did that when i first opened evolution....it filled in all the configuration and stuff.....i also put in my hotmail password...it doesn't seem to work :(

[21:10] <sauvin> sky`sunset, I didn't get any pm from you.
[21:10] <robdig_> Tupsik: ntpd

[21:10] <metalfan> Tupsik: google doesnt know?
[21:10] <sky`sunset> can u send me pm sauvin?
[21:10] <juano__> Ashfire908: is it a flash memory key ?
[21:10] <Jack_Sparrow> sauvin: here is another  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDPersistence
[21:10] <juano__> Ashfire908: sdb ?
[21:10] <sauvin> sky`sunset, I'm reading.
[21:10] <chester_martins> can anybody play iunes at ubuntu??
[21:10] <chester_martins> i can with wine, but it's slow :S
[21:11] <Tupsik> one more question - is there a fast but feature-rich graphics viewer?
[21:11] <B-rabbit> does anyone know how to change the POP(protocol) password...can it be done?
[21:11] <sauvin> sky`sunset, Jack_Sparrow, as I understand it, what's being discussed here is reformatting a USB device to ext2, no?
[21:11] <Ashfire908> juano__, i want grub on the the flash drive, sdb
[21:11] <sky`sunset> right
[21:12] <juano__> Ashfire908: http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/articles/grub_intro/ that could be usefull
[21:12] <sky`sunset> then the windows can't understand the format anymore
[21:12] <sauvin> sky`sunset, Jack_Sparrow, I believe fs.org has ext2 FS drivers for Windows.
[21:12] <sky`sunset> really?
[21:12] <joshua__> cd cuts off half of my desktop
[21:12] <sky`sunset> how can i put the name b4 the msg?
[21:12] <sky`sunset> sauvin
[21:13] <stefg> !ext3 | sky`sunset
[21:13] <ubotu> sky`sunset: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[21:13] <Tupsik> is there a fast but feature-rich graphics viewer?
[21:13] <mariano7> net
[21:13] <joshua__> in other words I hope this is a quick fix I dont want to have to configure xorg.conf just to fix my sudo problem
[21:13] <sauvin> stefg, YES, thank you.
[21:13] <sauvin> josh, regardless of the state of your desktop, you should still be able to open an xterm.
[21:13] <Jack_Sparrow> sauvin: Sorry had to get the door..
[21:13] <joshua__> sauvin: sounds good
[21:14] <sauvin> Jack_Sparrow, don't be sorry. Life, like doodoo, happens.
[21:14] <Jack_Sparrow> Yes, it nees to be setup specifically for that purpose
[21:14] <sky`sunset> stefg, how can i put the name b4 the msg?
[21:14] <Jack_Sparrow> sauvin: you can add a second partition on there for windows if you must.
[21:14] <Tupsik> then tell me guys, is it possible to compile Ubuntu kernel with optimizations for my system?
[21:14] <joshua__> so at the the promtp type gksudo edit?
[21:14] <sauvin> Jack_Sparrow, of course you can, if the usb device is large enough to manage it.
[21:14] <sky`sunset> can config the formats taht both linux and windows can understand?
[21:15] <Jack_Sparrow> sauvin: It works quite well...  I have an iso of a basic usb in persistent.. I think base is 42 meg
[21:15] <stefg> !kernel | Tupsik
[21:15] <ubotu> Tupsik: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages
[21:15] <davenull> Tupsik: yes, look up in google, too long to tell you here
[21:15] <Jack_Sparrow> sauvin: I just got frustrated telling him to look and he kept wining about not being able to find anything
[21:16] <Tupsik> so doesn't this speed up the Ubuntu?
[21:16] <sauvin> Jack_Sparrow, who?
[21:16] <joshua__> soundray sauvin, nopw that I am in the live environment what should I do ?
[21:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Skygge_: No you cant
[21:16] <Jack_Sparrow> sorry wronk sky
[21:16] <sauvin> joshua__, if your desktop is messed up, I'd open a terminal and try to use nano to edit the /etc/sudoers file.
[21:16] <Skygge_> Jack_Sparrow, np
[21:16] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[21:17] <sauvin> Mind you, you'll have to FIND it, first, joshua__; it'll be on a /dev/hd* or /dev/sd* partition.
[21:17] <uberr> yo. what are the defaults for grub when booting xp and vista
[21:17] <stefg> !grub | uberr
[21:17] <ubotu> uberr: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[21:17] <joshua__> sauvin: We are really testing my shell command knowledge today

[21:18] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[21:18] <sauvin> testing? Heck, no! We're EXPANDING it!
[21:18] <Jvalldom> x-server has no dga support
[21:18] <Jvalldom> what is that?
[21:18] <killroy_2> Tidus: I have my lappy available now, so if you have a few minutes maybe you can direct me to a few answers.
[21:18] <sauvin> Man, the current state of the Linux art is such that you'll find it REALLY really REALLY handy to have a good working knowledge of the shell environment.
[21:19] <chazco> Hi... I'm using Nautilus to connect to FTP... on other FTP clients i get automatically sent to the correct directory (it varys) on the site... but nautilius just drops me into its root... any ideas?
[21:19] <Rudd-O> hullo guys.  what's the set of steps I have to do to build a package if I have an old version of a package with its .dsc file, and the latest tarball of the source?
[21:19] <sauvin> .oO(".dsc"?)
[21:19] <stefg> !packaging
[21:19] <matttis> which /proc is for the screen reslolution or refresh rate ?
[21:19] <joshua__> sauvin: what is the quick way to mount drives in root
[21:19]  * sky`sunset slaps sauvin around a bit with a large trout
[21:19] <killroy_2> Tidus: firstly, lspci does review that the pcmcia nic (the wpc54g v4 is using the TI chipset
[21:19] <Rudd-O> sauvin: .dsc is what I get when I apt-get source
[21:19] <ubotu> packaging is The packaging guide is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports
[21:20] <Rudd-O> ok lemme read that
[21:20] <killroy_2> Tidus: and the internal wifi nic is the Intel PRO Wireless 2100
[21:20] <sauvin> joshua__, do you know what partition your installed ubuntu is on?
[21:20] <Rudd-O> its really slow, the site doesnt load
[21:20] <Ctrl_> is intel X3100 completable with gutsy?
[21:20] <Rudd-O> Ctrl_: I'm not sure if gutsy may complete intel X3100
[21:20] <Rudd-O> :-)
[21:20] <ComPro> what would cause fglrx to stop working? last night after a reboot, it wouldn't load X properly, so today, i reformatted and started from scratch, and fglrx still will not load X properly. it falls back to vesa.  http://pastebin.com/m1b146ca2 <-- here is my Xorg.0.log file
[21:20] <matttis> !proc
[21:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about proc - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[21:21] <Rudd-O> compro lemme read your file
[21:21] <Rudd-O> hang on a sec
[21:21] <Tupsik> does a self-compiled kernel speed the system up?
[21:21] <joshua__> I think I better just reboot into safemode ? I have three harddrives with about five partitions I think its hdc1
[21:21] <Ctrl_> when i installed gutsy my card was working fine but after playing with xorg its working anymore
[21:21] <killroy_2> Tidus: here are two issues I have right now: the Intel wifi is no longer even scanning for connections.  I'd made a change to knetworkManager and set the wifi to DHCP and autostart and now it just doesn't scan at all
[21:21] <sauvin> Tupsik, *sometimes*, but not usually perceptibly.
[21:21] <a-arschi> kotz
[21:21] <Ctrl_> its not working anymore*
[21:21] <sky`sunset> how can i put ur name b4 my msg?
[21:21] <killroy_2> Tidus: that being said, the linksys (wpc54g v4) doesn't even show up.
[21:21] <Rudd-O> that is certainly a library that got upgraded and has a bug, or the fglrx driver has a bug itself
[21:21] <Rudd-O> you need to report the backtrace in your log to bugs.launchpad.net
[21:22] <naynay> Hey people, ca someone help me....i'm just suffered a major data loss
[21:22] <Rudd-O> naynay: state your question
[21:22] <sauvin> Tupsik, the problem with rolling your own kernel is that distros often have their own patchsets and configs; if you don't acknowledge those, you risk breaking things.
[21:22] <sky`sunset> can someone tell me how to ut the name b4 the msg ?
[21:22] <sky`sunset> sauvin
[21:22] <a-arschi> paule118
[21:22] <Rudd-O> I'm building pulse 0.9.8, if anyone wants the debs, just let me know
[21:22] <Ctrl_> any1 suggest if i should reinstall gutsy?
[21:22] <killroy_2> Tidus: so, firstly do you have any idea how to get the linksys to start such that I can scan and connect, and secondly, what happened to my intel (if you have any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it)
[21:22] <sauvin> sky`sunset, what do you mean?
[21:22] <AllNicksAreTaken> just wondering, can I start Ubuntu 7.10 in the LiveCD environment? When I boot from the CD I am only able to install it via Text Mode
[21:22] <Rudd-O> Ctrl_: doing the same thing over and over is the definition of insanity
[21:22] <joshua__> sky sunset begin typing the name and press tab
[21:22] <ComPro> Rudd-O: the driver worked yesterday. i rebooted today and it failed. i had nothing to lose, so i reformatted, and i'm still getting that problem. what could have happened?
[21:22] <sky`sunset> like i wanna specify ur name
[21:22] <a-arschi>  Pelo hat den Raum ubuntu betreten.
