[08:37] <pguser> it starts booting windows and then it blue screens on me
[08:37] <VSpike> pguser: At what point does it bluescreen?
[08:37] <teer2> Dalton: Thanks for the feedback - I think the assumption that people don't use a mic would only be true for bandwidth-limited locations.  Most people with the means are using SIP or Skype these days.
[08:38] <wd> cant get flash plugin going with firefox, dl'd plugin, installed it, now it says copy libflash.so to plugin folder, it's there already.
[08:38] <jgoguen> meisam: then putty will come up with a dialog, just say 'yes', and then enter your username, press Enter, then your password, and Enter again, and it should let you in
[08:38] <wd> help.
[08:38] <peepsalot> how much RAM overhead it is to run KDE apps in gnome?
[08:38] <wd> ^^^
[08:38] <vox754> pal_, you cannot. It has not been released yet.
[08:38] <jonatan> pguser: did you try booting into safemode ?
[08:38] <banlieue> teer2: skype doesn't support voice chat on linux :o
[08:38] <pguser> VSpike: it blue screens at the windows logo
[08:38] <bibo_> ive got know idea what the desktop fx asst is
[08:38] <VSpike> pguser: will it boot in safe mode?
[08:38] <pguser> you know, the one you see when you first starting booting
[08:38] <Drk_Guy> bibo_: i won't help ATI users at all
[08:38] <magnetron> wd: you should not download it from any homepage, you should install it with Synaptic
[08:38] <teer2> banlieue: May be true, but doesn't stop most people using it on one operating system or another.
[08:38] <IndyGunFreak> Drk_Guy: lol
[08:38] <pguser> VSpike:there is no option to go into safe mode
[08:38] <Drk_Guy> System->Prefs_>Desktop FX
[08:39] <bibo_> ohh the beryl compiz stuff
[08:39] <pguser> it just has a windows option in grub,no safe mode option
[08:39] <meisam> jgoguen thank you friend, thank you very much, i try to conect to my pc from outside and see wahts going on
[08:39] <pal_> vox754 what about Qt-4.2.1 ?
[08:39] <Drk_Guy> Beryll has nothing to do with Dektop FX
[08:39] <teer2> banlieue: You're not being helpful with your responses, smarty.
[08:39] <wd> magnetron, i did that too, synaptic says it will "get" flash install, where does it put it?
[08:39] <Drk_Guy> D FX is a tech preview of Ubuntu
[08:39] <VSpike> pguser: try pressing F8 repeatedly after choosing the windows option in grub until you see a boot menu
[08:39] <bibo_> ahh
[08:39] <vox754> pal_, that is not an Ubuntu question, please don't ask that.
[08:39] <banlieue> teer2: I was suggesting to you why your logic was flawed
[08:39] <pguser> ok i'll try it
[08:39] <pguser> brb
[08:39] <Dalton> teer2, I would agree that SOME people use those types of VOIP software, but I would still have to disagree that more people use those than don't. Distro's have to work for the majority of the users, not the niche market (unless it's meant to be a niche product)
[08:39] <Drk_Guy> But you have to un-install all of Ati's stuff first
[08:40] <bibo_> wierd
[08:40] <wd> magnetron, using dapper, only way to get server to work with my wireless card..  :(
[08:40] <magnetron> wd: it will put it in the correct location. remove the manual install you did
[08:40] <askand> What can I write in the terminal to see if my wlancard is supported?
[08:40] <pal_> vox754 i asked anywy so answer
[08:40] <Drk_Guy> So Desktop FX re-install everything the correct way
[08:40] <wd> magnetron, oh crap how, i already uncompressed file and created .mozilla?
[08:41] <wd> magnetron, just rm?
[08:41] <magnetron> wd: i don't know, maybe
[08:41] <zylche> How do I see what program(s) are using the sound device(s)?
[08:41] <teer2> Dalton: Well - whether the percentage - I think using a microphone in Ubuntu is harder than it should be.  There should be instruction in the wiki, for example.  A microphone is not an unusual component and all computers have a port for such a device.
[08:41] <wd> magnetron, ok done, now what do i do?
[08:41] <meisam> jgoguen friend there is an message when im trying to come up with my pc saying that eth0: no ipv6 routers present ...
[08:42] <meisam> jgoguen is that familiar to u ?
[08:42] <bibo_> meisam you can ignore the ipv6 message and should probably just remove all ipv6 flags from your network card
[08:42] <jgoguen> meisam: unless you're using IPv6, you can ignore it
[08:42] <wd> magnetron, synaptic open.
[08:42] <jonatan> meisam: does your connectionw ork otherwise ?
[08:42] <Drk_Guy> meisam, block the ipv6 driver
[08:42] <Drk_Guy> !ipv6
[08:42] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[08:42] <Shin_Gouki> hello i need help with my scanner setup can anyone help me with that?
[08:43] <Dalton> teer2, Windows, the supposed "easiest" OS to use, set's microphones to mute on first install too. It's not just an Ubuntu thing (I would assume that other Distro's do the same thing, to avoid more problems than it creates based on numbers of people using the technology)
[08:43] <bibo_> Drk_Guy there shouldnt be an ipv6 driver. just flags for the eth driver
[08:43] <jgoguen> !ipv6 | meisam
[08:43] <ubotu> meisam: please see above
[08:43] <meisam> Drk_Guy how can i block and block the message
[08:43] <magnetron> wb, open the repository settings and enable multivers
[08:43] <rockets> Whats the proper way of disabling things in /etc/init.d from running at boot? rcconf doesn't seem to be listing everything
[08:43] <Drk_Guy> Shin, get the cups driver from the manufacturer's site
[08:43] <magnetron> wb: then install the package flashplugin-nonfree
[08:43] <wd> magnetron, ok. i see my "flashplugin-non free" is already installed
[08:44] <Anlar> rockets: there's a gui application for that on system->administration
[08:44] <magnetron> wd: then you might have messed u the automatic install with your manual tricks
[08:44] <Drk_Guy> Meisam, Modprove won't load the ipv6 stuff, disabling it completely
[08:44] <magnetron> *up
[08:44] <rockets> Anlar, yeah I'm looking for a way of doing it from the terminal, other then chmod -x
[08:44] <Oni-Dracula> anyone know how to force X to switch resolutions when the GUI resolution switcher does nothing?
[08:44] <Anlar> rockets: update-rc.d
[08:45] <wd> magnetron, it was already intalled first before the manual tricks still wasn't working
[08:45] <rockets> thanks
[08:45] <wd> magnetron, how can i correct?
[08:45] <LucianIndy> your sudo password is the one you use to log-in to the account your on now
[08:45] <Stormx2> Oni-Dracula: Ack, I've had that once. I think I just restarted X.
[08:45] <teer2> Dalton: Good point, but it Windows the mic is straight forward to enable.  I've been working on my microphone for two days and running all sorts of command line diagnostics with no avail.  Stumped the #alsa guys, too.  They said it might be an esd confict.  *shrug*  I guess I am just here to vent, because I am getting a Nokia N800 that runs Linux and has VoIP as a standard feature.
[08:45] <rockets> Anlar, thats for REMOVING links. i dont want to remove, only disable
[08:45] <Oni-Dracula> Stormx2, darn... I have a bunch of stuff open...oh well!
[08:45] <Drk_Guy> Ctrl+Alt+Backspace
[08:45] <magnetron> wd: what do you mean "didn't work"
[08:45] <meisam> Drk_Guy is there anyway to disable it compeletely ?
[08:45] <zylche> Can not play sounds - Any App trying to play a sound crashes. xmms fast forwards through a song without playing anything. Help?
[08:46] <Anlar> rockets: it removes them from rc.level's , and recreated as requested. it's what you really should use
[08:46] <wd> i went to a site that uses flash player to see flick and i get the install plugin messge
[08:46] <JDahl> Jack_Sparrow, I will try to get GRUB fixed before recovering Windows.  This is from "sudo fdisk -l": http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29130/   and it looks fine, I think
[08:46] <Drk_Guy> The way Ubotu said DISABLES IPV6 COMPLETELY
[08:46] <wd> magnetron, ^^^
[08:46] <rockets> Anlar, ok. Also the GUI tool didn't list all my services either. I'm trying to stop vsftpd from running at boot
[08:46] <Stormx2> zylche: Have you got the MP3 codecs installed?
[08:46] <magnetron> wd: what firefox do you use? the standard version?
[08:46] <wd> magnetron, yes the one came with dapper.
[08:47] <zylche> Yeah, unless they were uninstalled during the reboot
[08:47] <zylche> I was just watching something on here no less than 10 minutes ago.
[08:47] <wd> magnetron, i'm using dapper because i couln't get ubuntu server to recongn my wireless card with ndiswrapper.
[08:47] <magnetron> wd, then i don't know
[08:47] <Dalton> teer2, That's the Up and Down sides of Linux. You can do anything, but until every vendor provides drivers for their own devices we are stuck with places like this to "figure it out." I don't think that is such a bad thing though, as these places (and especially LOCAL groups) really helps build the community on a micro cosmic level and community is what Ubuntu is all about :D
[08:47] <Qnix> hello guys .. im running ubuntu on AMD64 everything works fine .. but it runs very slowly ... i dont know why .. any one have idea about that problem ??
[08:47] <wd> magnetron, ok
[08:48] <BillyBeans> how do i ssh into my server from another terminal?
[08:48] <dr_willis> install ssh. ssh ip#
[08:48] <dr_willis> its not installed by default.
[08:48] <Jack_Sparrow> JDahl: Are you trying to boot to #2 and not using the mbr?
[08:48] <Qnix> hello guys .. im running ubuntu on AMD64 everything works fine .. but it runs very slowly ... i dont know why .. any one have idea about that problem ??
[08:49] <Drk_Guy> !repeat | Qnix
[08:49] <ubotu> Qnix: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[08:49] <teer2> Dalton: Well - for all the amazing things I've seen Ubuntu do - including preventing me from sabotaging it with my fiddling for the last four moths - I can accept this one limitation.  Thanks for your thought!
[08:49] <JDahl> Jack_Sparrow, no,  I just want the "regular"...  I actually wondered about the '*'... should I just flag #1 bootable ?
[08:49] <stupid_cupid> I use laptop acer 3270 with Intel GMA 950, how can i change my screen resolution to 1280x800
[08:50] <zylche> I'm just going to reboot.
[08:50] <Drk_Guy> !resolution
[08:50] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[08:50] <meisam> Drk_Guy is there anyway to remove or bloack the ipv 6 ?
[08:50] <Drk_Guy> !ipv6 > meisam
[08:50] <dr_willis> !ipv6
[08:50] <ubotu> To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[08:50] <Jack_Sparrow> JDahl: you should be fine.. I wasnt looking at it right..
[08:51] <bibo_> Looks like someone got the x1950 working w/ an older ati driver but it work work w/ 2.6.20. Anyone tried dropping their kernel version via apt before?
[08:51] <Drk_Guy> dropping krnl version?
[08:51] <Drk_Guy> That's crazy
[08:52] <BillyBeans> how do i ssh into my server from another terminal?
[08:52] <Drk_Guy> You have to recompile and re-install
[08:52] <bibo_> kernel compiles not bad. just want an apt way
[08:52] <Greyscale_> I have a machine connected to my network. I can verify that the connection to the router is good. how can I verify that the machine can talk to the network and figure out why it can't pick up an IP. this machine was working flawlessly for about 3 months until I moved it yesterday
[08:52] <Drk_Guy> Aptitude way?
[08:53] <Chousuke> bibo_: you can make kernel debian packages with make-kpkg
[08:53] <n2diy> bibo_: search synaptic for linux, and you'll get a list of available kernels.
[08:53] <BillyBeans> help me, how do i ssh into another box?
[08:53] <bibo_> yeah Chousuke i guess ill have to do it manually
[08:53] <bibo_> n2diy already did an apt-cache search kernel and they're all 2.6.20
[08:53] <Greyscale_> BillyBeans, ssh address/ip
[08:53] <Chousuke> bibo_: however, be warned that downgrading may introduce other problems.
[08:54] <VSpike> desktop search sucks
[08:54] <magnetron> BillyBeans: if the other box runs the ssh server, open a terminal on the client box and type ssh username@serveradress
[08:54] <bibo_> Chousuke: thanks but i should be able to deal with them. cant be harder than using redhat 4.2 back in the day :)
[08:54] <magnetron> VSpike: don't use it then
[08:54] <n2diy> bibo_: www.kernel.org?
[08:54] <Chousuke> bibo_: Hopefully you'll succeed.
[08:55] <VSpike> magnetron: I don't - I keep trying them out in the hope that someone will have made on which doesn't suck, but I'm always disappointed :)
[08:55] <bibo_> n2diy i know where to get it :) just didnt want to have to do it by hand. the more time i spend working on this god forsaken video card the more i want to throw it out the window
[08:55] <JDahl> Jack_Sparrow, does this /boot/grub/menu.lst file look alright to you?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29132/
[08:55] <VSpike> magnetron: Shame because when it works well, it's pretty handy
[08:55] <Greyscale_> I have a machine connected to my network. I can verify that the connection to the router is good. how can I verify that the machine can talk to the network and figure out why it can't pick up an IP. this machine was working flawlessly for about 3 months until I moved it yesterday
[08:55] <Chousuke> bibo_: however, I think you should wait till ATI upgrades their drivers. :/
[08:55] <bibo_> so i wanted to avoud as much labor as possible :)
[08:55] <mavsman4457> Hi I am trying to install Google Earth and when I try my terminal just looks like this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29133/
[08:56] <BillyBeans> hey magnet ron --if my port for ssh is 777 would it be like  ssh <IP_ADDRESS>:777  ??
[08:56] <bibo_> Chousuke unfortunately they had an update on the 25th of last month so ill have to wait a while longer for another one
[08:56] <bibo_> ssh -p 777
[08:56] <BillyBeans> hey magnet ron --if my port for ssh is 777 would it be like  ssh user@<IP_ADDRESS>:777  ??
[08:56] <macogw-is-a-girl> mavsman4457: did you try running it now?
[08:56] <bibo_> or maybe that's teh BitchX port command
[08:56] <isaac_> billybeans:  its ssh -o 777<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[08:56] <mavsman4457> from where, the terminal?
[08:56] <macogw-is-a-girl> macsits not giving any errrors so it looks installed
[08:56] <isaac_> er
[08:56] <isaac_> ssh -p
[08:56] <jessica> hello, whenever I try to install anything with apt-get or aptitude (I've tried 'wine' and 'irssi'), it downloads the packages and then gets stuck at: "0% [Working] " .  Sometimes the percentage changes depending on what I try to install.  dpkg still works fine.  I installed irssi using a deb with dpkg.  What exactly is APT doing when it says it is "working"?  Or how can I troubleshoot this?
[08:58] <macogw-is-a-girl> mavsman4457: its not giving any errors so it looks installed. try just typing googleearth and see what happens
[08:58] <bluefox83> jessica, it should tell you exactly what it's doing when it's working, for each file it should show when it's downloading, when it's preparing the system for the packages, and when it installs anything
[08:58] <mavsman4457> macogw-is-a-girl: it says command not found
[08:58] <macogw-is-a-girl> mavsman4457: google-earth maybe?
[08:58] <mpcc> hello all
[08:58] <ianmcorvidae> If you're installing from medibuntu, it's googleearth.
[08:59] <ianmcorvidae> Haven't been paying attention, though :)
[08:59] <mavsman4457> macogw-is-a-girl: still not found
[08:59] <mpcc> i got a serious problem, ubuntu wont load! I enter my username and password and then I see the brown wallpaper and a gray box on the top left corner and thats it..it stays there frozen!! any ideas ?
[08:59] <vzduch> obviously, there's ppl who don't know Medibuntu
[08:59] <mavsman4457> i am not using medibuntu
[08:59] <johndoc> How would I enable the universe, multiverse, and restricted repositories in feisty?
[08:59] <mavsman4457> i'm using feisty
[09:00] <vzduch> mavsman4457: Medibuntu is not another *buntu flavour, it's a repository
[09:00] <n2diy> mavsman4457: medibuntu  isn't an OS, just a repo.
[09:00] <mavsman4457> oh ok
[09:00] <Phydoux> mpcc, I had the same problem. I just used the recovery mode and backed up all my stuff and re installed
[09:00] <ianmcorvidae> Thanks, vzduch, you beat me.
[09:00] <ianmcorvidae> Heh.
[09:00] <vzduch> !medibuntu
[09:00] <ubotu> medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org
[09:00] <mpcc> phydoux thats not very comforting!!
[09:00] <JDahl> Jack_Sparrow, FYI - more googling seems to reveal the problem:  the thinkpad t40 has a hidden recovery partition that messes up cylinder calculations: http://www.markwilson.co.uk/blog/2006/03/grub-error-18-when-installing-suse-10.htm
[09:00] <Phydoux> mpcc, Nor fun.
[09:00] <jessica> bluefox83: here is all the output I get: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29134/
[09:01] <macogw-is-a-girl> mavsman4457: if you type goog then hit tab twice does anything show up?
[09:01] <peeps> my update manager wants to update itself, but it says it can't be authenticated
[09:01] <Phydoux> mpcc, Thats why I use 2 HD's. So I can copy stuff from one drive to another if I have to
[09:01] <mpcc> i think it must be the resolution, i changed it somehow in the last time it was working
[09:01] <mavsman4457> macogw-is-a-girl: no just goog
[09:02] <mavsman4457> should i try installing medibuntu?
[09:02] <mpcc> anyone knows how I can reset the previous working resolution through the terminal ?
[09:02] <bluefox83> jessica, looks liek it's trying to download from a bad repository or one that's being over-burdened...try another repo...sudo apt-get update and then try again...if that doesn't work...there's a website somewhere that'll help you find repos for your area...
[09:02] <gilster> what is a good audio program to split one large audio file into several parts useing a premarked cue file,
[09:02] <russe11> !samba
[09:02] <jessica> bluefox83: it's downloaded all the packages, notice it says it needs to get 0B/10.8MB
[09:02] <Ayabara> after using the cisco vpn client, vpnc was a blessing :-)
[09:02] <bluefox83> mavsman4457, for the like..20th time medibuntu is not a distro or software package, it's a repository...you do NOT install it..you add it to your sources.list and download software from it
[09:02] <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
[09:03] <n2diy> gilster: Audacity?
[09:03] <vzduch> mavsman4457: your archive only uncompressed, nothing yet installed
[09:03] <gilster> n2diy: thanks i will check that again
[09:03] <mavsman4457> bluefox83: relax i knew it wasn't an OS
[09:03] <gilster> last i tried audacity didnt do that
[09:03] <vzduch> mavsman4457: so add a Medibuntu repo & install using Adept or whichever method you prefer :)
[09:04] <bluefox83> jessica, that's messed up...it's beyond my abilities sorry
[09:04] <mavsman4457> vzduch: sorry what's adept?
[09:04] <slavik> mavsman4457: adept is the kde version of synaptic
[09:04] <jessica> bluefox83: ok, thank you for your suggestions
[09:05] <bluefox83> jessica, i would still try sudo apt-get update
[09:05] <jessica> bluefox83: k, I'll change mirrors and try that
[09:05] <bluefox83> jessica, cus to me it looks like it thinks it already has it, but isn't sure
[09:05] <macogw-is-a-girl> double-tab is a cool trick
[09:05] <mavsman4457> vzduch: so to get the repo of medibuntu i just go to the terminal and type in what it says on their website?
[09:06] <mavsman4457> at the howto part
[09:06] <slavik> macogw-is-a-girl: it's not a trick, it's a feature
[09:06] <scott__> hey guys is there a way for banshee to read .m4a files? its the deafault mac music format when ripping music from cds using itunes
[09:06] <head> join
[09:06] <macogw-is-a-girl> slavik: well then its a cool feature
[09:06] <vzduch> mavsman4457: basically yes
[09:06] <mavsman4457> vzduch: and the lines represent the different commands right? it's not all one command?
[09:07] <vzduch> mavsman4457: yes, every line is 1 command
[09:07] <mavsman4457> ok i'll give that a try
[09:07] <theAnswer> hey, i have got a problem with ubuntu 6.10 - should i post it here? (its hard to google for that)
[09:07] <slavik> !ask | theAnswer
[09:07] <ubotu> theAnswer: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:08] <theAnswer> ok
[09:08] <vzduch> theAnswer: if you have something to past, use the pastebin

[09:11] <peeps> help2script, i think you can use this to append a line: echo "new line for your file" | cat filename - > filename
[09:12] <bluefox83> haha
[09:12] <help2script> peeps: Exactly what i was looking for :D thanks you
[09:12] <bluefox83> that's great :D
[09:12] <vzduch> mavsman4457: hmm.. shouldn't be a problem
[09:12] <mavsman4457> vzduch: should i just keep waiting? it doesn't look like it's doing anything
[09:13] <johnnytang24> uhh, how about just echo "new line" >>filename
[09:13] <vzduch> abort w/ Ctrl-C and repeat, this time leaving the apt-get update part out, doing that afterwards separately
[09:13] <help2script> peeps: close ..s hould be enough for me to go on
[09:14] <johnnytang24> using cat file > file is a bad idea
[09:14] <mavsman4457> vzduch: but I only got to the "sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list" part
[09:14] <BillyBeans> issac i tried it it doesnt work i tried ssh -o 777<EMAIL_ADDRESS>what am i doing wrong?
[09:14] <peeps> help2script, yeah, looks like johnnytang24 has the correct way to do it.  bad guess on my part
[09:15] <natbet> is there a way to change permissions on /media/linwin (my extra hard drive, it's set to root now)
[09:15] <Dalton> BillyBeans, -p not -o
[09:15] <johnnytang24> natbet : change the fmask when mounting
[09:15] <vzduch> mavsman4457: then do that by hand --> sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list <-- add the repo line there, then execute the 2nd line
[09:15] <tolstoy> Folks: I want to install Ubuntu on Parallels on an Intel Mac (x86-64).  Should I use the amd64 image?  The downloader suggested I should when I clicked the "amd 64 and intel".

[09:19] <head> can anyone help me with a ubuntu server related package problem?
[09:19] <mavsman4457> vzduch: I think i did something wrong because i typed in this command "sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free" then it wanted me to edit some file so i just exitted that file without editing it
[09:19] <wweasel> frojnd: You can control such settings in System > Preferences.  For more complicated stuff you'll need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:19] <Bradf0rd> Does anyone here have experience using Mac OS 10.5 Leopard Beta (Build 9A466)?

[09:22] <bluefox83> LucianIndy, no..should give you those same options..you should be able to pick one
[09:22] <mavsman4457> vzduch: oh so that first command will make me edit a text file then in that text file i type in the other part?

[09:24] <vega> er gent help please with x server i cant start my pc
[09:24] <Cinderella> n2diy Thank you
[09:24] <pguser> :-(
[09:24] <rockets> vega, try sudo dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:24] <LucianIndy> ok
[09:24] <vega> i cant get to login screen
[09:24] <theAnswer> i start ubuntu.. desktop is loaded etc. but then "desktop" (like explorer.exe :P) closes, the bug buddy loads and shows some errors, when i close it, desktop crashes again, bug buddy, and so on
[09:24] <theAnswer> /usr/bin/gnome-panel is shown...
[09:25] <pguser> how could ubuntu get this wrong?  I've never had a problem with triple booting before
[09:25] <bluefox83> LucianIndy, what do you want it to do, run in a terminal window?
[09:25] <roy> vega press Strg+Alt+F1
[09:25] <LucianIndy> no, just Run without Terminal
[09:25] <vega> roy: Strg what is that?
[09:25] <bluefox83> pguser, it's not ubuntu, it's your grub setup
[09:25] <kitche> pguser: grub menu.lst just changed you have to put the other entries back in
[09:25] <theAnswer> vega: Ctrl :P
[09:25] <roy> a button
[09:25] <vzduch> roy, vega: Ctrl
[09:26] <stefg> !grub | pguser
[09:26] <ubotu> pguser: 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
[09:26] <bluefox83> LucianIndy, have you tried just double clicking it, to run like a regular application?
[09:26] <vega> when to press it exactly?
[09:26] <LucianIndy> yeah, and it brings up that dialog
[09:26] <vzduch> vega: anytime
[09:26] <mavsman4457> vzduch: sorry i had to leave but if that line is already in the text file can i just continue with the other steps?
[09:26] <LucianIndy> button1 = Run in Terminal, button2 - Display, button3 - cancel, button4 - run
[09:26] <vega> vzduch: ok
[09:26] <vzduch> vega: get back to the X server by pressing Strg+Alt+F7
[09:26] <LucianIndy> i want it to default to button 4 which is Run
[09:26] <bluefox83> LucianIndy, ever notice a little checkbox that says "Make this the default action for files like this"?
[09:27] <head> has anyone an idea how to supress some unnecessary packages from being instaled?
[09:27] <vzduch> mavsman4457: yes
[09:27] <LucianIndy> nah, nothing there
[09:27] <bluefox83> LucianIndy, what kind of script is it? bash, perl, python?
[09:27] <LucianIndy> all it says is "synergy client" is an executable text file.
[09:27] <mavsman4457> vzduch: and sorry but could you just repeat those steps, i had to close out of the window
[09:27] <mavsman4457> just paste them in
[09:27] <LucianIndy> bash
[09:27] <mavsman4457> please
[09:27] <vzduch> mavsman: one moment please
[09:27] <mavsman4457> ok
[09:27] <head> has anyone an idea how to supress some unnecessary packages from being installed?
[09:28] <Cinderella> >_<
[09:28] <bluefox83> LucianIndy, tell it to run as a custom command, and try that...like you were launching it from terminal...
[09:28] <vzduch> mavsman4457: 'sudo nano -w /etc/apt/sources.list', there you add the line 'deb http://packages.medibuntu.org/ feisty free non-free' <-- you already have that, so you can skip it
[09:28] <soneil> LucianIndy: if you name it something.sh  do you get the same dialogue?  or atleast the Persist option?
[09:28] <bluefox83> LucianIndy, it should try to run it without a terminal window :)
[09:28] <vzduch> mavsman4457: save w/ Ctrl-O, exit w/ Ctrl-X
[09:28] <vega> vzduch: ok its stuck in running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)
[09:28] <theAnswer> should i post my question again and again to get help? (<= i know that is so lame :P)
[09:28] <vzduch> mavsman4457: then get and add the key by typing 'wget -q http://de.packages.medibuntu.org/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add', when that is done, do 'sudo apt-get update'
[09:29] <stefg> head: desktop install basically just copies an image, no way to influence certain packages. you'd need an expert install from an alternate CD
[09:29] <Cinderella> I came here to learn English, the way that we look at what
[09:29] <bluefox83> theAnswer, just ask your question and wait till somoene can answer
[09:29] <Dalton> Vega press enter and you can go on to the login screen
[09:29] <LucianIndy> let me try the .sh extension
[09:29] <LucianIndy> right now it has no extension
[09:29] <mavsman4457> vzduch: i just type that at the terminal?
[09:29] <vega> Dalton: ok got it thanks
[09:29] <vzduch> mavsman4457: yes
[09:29] <dcordes> hi I just  tried to establish an RDP connection with an XP machine using tsclient. I get the following error on connect:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29137/
[09:29] <LucianIndy> still get the dialog
[09:29] <head> stefg: the installation process is finished. to be more detailed... we have a feisty server edition and try to install e.g postfix
[09:29] <theAnswer> bluefox83, i dont think that anyone would scroll up again :P
[09:30] <theAnswer> anyways - i'm waiting :)
[09:30] <bluefox83> then either no one saw it, or no one knows the answer
[09:30] <theAnswer> Yes. :)
[09:30] <head> with aptitude there are endless dependencies of x libraries and tools (such as xpdf ??)
[09:30] <stefg> head: so you're complaining that there are certain dependencies?
[09:30] <head> but with apt-get install only important packages are listed for installation
[09:31] <head> stefg: exactely
[09:31] <Romeo5k> hello...
[09:31] <bluefox83> theAnswer, ok, so your gnome keeps crashing?
[09:31] <Romeo5k> i need some help..
[09:31] <theAnswer> yes
[09:31] <soneil> LucianIndy: Does the script start #!/bin/bash or similar?  I'm curious why it's apparently not registering a filetype for it
[09:31] <bluefox83> theAnswer, this is going to seem a little assinine, but i suggest doing sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[09:31] <LucianIndy> it starts
[09:31] <vega> Dalton: sudo dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg not working
[09:32] <mavsman4457> vzduch: when i did the key add thing it told me there was no such directory
[09:32] <bluefox83> theAnswer, sometimes things don't get loaded or installed correctly
[09:32] <LucianIndy> cd ~ | cd synergy-1.3.1 | synergys --config synergy.conf
[09:32] <Romeo5k> i was told to enable Universe and multiverse repositories in fiesty fawn.. I have the server and a noob, but im thinking i enable it using a sudo command, but i cannot find the command anywhere.. AM i missing something?
[09:32] <LucianIndy> | = newline
[09:32] <stefg> head: that's design decisison. (and usually a wise one). what do you think is 'unnecessary' in particular?
[09:32] <frojnd> can systemrescue cd edit partitions and format them???
[09:32] <roy> you have to write it like this: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:32] <LucianIndy> those 3 lines are all that are in it
[09:32] <theAnswer> "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" <- that would be reinstall?
[09:32] <LucianIndy> just saves some typing
[09:32] <rambo3> LucianIndy, sh script
[09:32] <rockets> anybody know which package contains mount.cifs or smbmount
[09:32] <frojnd> can systemrescue cd edit partitions and format them???
[09:33] <vzduch> mavsman4457: ah, my bad, it was missing something.. --> 'sudo apt-key add -' <-- the dash has to be there
[09:33] <soneil> LucianIndy: Try putting #!/bin/bash as the first line .. then "magic" should detect a proper type for it, and it'll get handled better
[09:33] <bluefox83> theAnswer, no, it'll make sure all the required packages are installed, and will get anything that might be missing
[09:33] <LucianIndy> ok, thanks, let me try that
[09:33] <vega> how to restore xorg  configuration
[09:33] <theAnswer> bluefox83, where should i type it? in recovery root mode?
[09:33] <dcordes> vega, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:33] <mavsman4457> vzduch: then apt-key update?
[09:33] <head> stefg: for example aptitude install postfix tells me that packages like x11-common xaw3dg xcursorgen xfonts-encodings xfonts-utils xlhtml xpdf-common xpdf-utils xutils xutils-dev etc. will be automatically installed... but I'm working without X just a cli based server
[09:34] <bluefox83> theAnswer, are you in terminal, or in an x window session?
[09:34] <theAnswer> x window
[09:34] <vzduch> mavsman4457: no, 'sudo apt-get update'
[09:34] <LucianIndy> still has the dialog that asks "Do you want to run "synergy.client.sh", or display its contents?" with the run in terminal, display, cancel, run buttons
[09:34] <albreche> Hi
[09:34] <bluefox83> just open a terminal
[09:34] <theAnswer> well i cant :P
[09:34] <Romeo5k> anyone wanna help me??
[09:34] <albreche> is ther a good tuto on installing apache2/php5 using apt-get, alongs with  php4 as compiled from source ?
[09:34] <head> stefg: so why would i possibly need xpdf :)
[09:34] <vzduch> !ask | Romeo5k
[09:34] <ubotu> Romeo5k: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:34] <vega> dcordes: thanks
[09:34] <Romeo5k> i was told to enable Universe and multiverse repositories in fiesty fawn.. I have the server and a noob, but im thinking i enable it using a sudo command, but i cannot find the command anywhere.. AM i missing something?
[09:34] <manganic> hello
[09:35] <n2diy> LucianIndy: I don't think a . is a valid file name character.
[09:35] <bluefox83> theAnswer, ctrl alt f2 should bring you to s screen you can log into the command line and do that ;)
[09:35] <theAnswer> ok :P
[09:35] <theAnswer> brb
[09:35] <vzduch> !multiverse
[09:35] <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
[09:35] <stefg> head: there's probably some gui configuration-tool that draws a complete X11 install... not to familiar with postfix, but there might be component packages.
[09:35] <manganic> perhaps someone can answer this question for me - is it possible to adjust the colour depth withOUT editing xorg.conf?
[09:35] <LucianIndy> renamed it and still get the same dialog
[09:35] <manganic> I need to go to 8-bit colour in order to use the terminal without causing a crash
[09:35] <head> stefg: what are component packages?
[09:36] <stefg> head: the opposite of metapackages :-)
[09:36] <mavsman4457> vzduch: it did a lot of stuff then said done and gave me this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29140/
[09:36] <bluefox83> manganic, nope...color depth is done in xorg.conf...
[09:36] <manganic> darn
[09:36] <manganic> okay
[09:36] <head> stefg: :)
[09:36] <manganic> well, I guess it's FailSafe Terminal / sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf every time then.
[09:37] <manganic> thanks
[09:37] <bluefox83> ...wow i was just going to ask him if he ment the gnome-terminal...
[09:37] <head> stefg: ok last attempt *g* how is it possible to block packages that i do not want to be installed when installing something
[09:37] <vzduch> mavsman4457: try 'sudo apt-key add medibuntu-key.gpg', then repeat 'sudo apt-get update'
[09:37] <natbet> exit
[09:37] <vzduch> mavsman4457: if it says 'OK' after adding the key, it's in the database
[09:38] <bluefox83> head, there is supposed to be a way to blacklist packages...but i don't really know how...
[09:38] <Zoffix> Hi, I have 17 extra keys on my keyboard, most of them are not working at the moment. I recall using some program that mapped those keys to functions. I forgot the name of that program.. completely. Someone in here referred me to that program. Does anybody have an idea what program it could be?
[09:38] <n2diy> Zoffix: loadkeys?
[09:38] <bluefox83> !keyboard
[09:38] <ubotu> To find out how to switch your keyboard layout, See https://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/xubuntu/desktopguide/C/switch-keyboard-layout.html - See also !Shortcuts
[09:38] <mavsman4457> vzduch: it gave me a list of commands
[09:38] <bluefox83> hrm...i forget how to do it too...
[09:39] <Zoffix> n2diy, I think that was it. Let me see
[09:39] <vega> after sudo dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg nothing working
[09:39] <liifer> /q
[09:39] <vzduch> hmm..
[09:39] <stefg> head: this would involve 'force -options for dpkg... don't do that, won't make you happy. you going to fight against apt all the time
[09:39] <mavsman4457> vzduch: apt-key update looks like the best
[09:40] <head> bluefox83: ok i will google that up, thanks
[09:40] <mavsman4457> actually that is when i added a dash
[09:40] <vzduch> mavsman4457: perhaps you forgot the filename for the key
[09:40] <mavsman4457> vzduch: it actually said filename not found
[09:40] <numus> anyone know how to configure a 5 button mouse in ubuntu...
[09:40] <vzduch> mavsman4457: ah, the dash in this case was the error, it stands for stdin, which was necessary when piping from wget
[09:40] <mavsman4457> vzduch: no such file or directory to be exact
[09:40] <head> stefg: ok thanks for your effort... i will postpone the installation until i figure it out
[09:40] <Squirrely_Wrath> Okay, I just converted ubuntu to Kubuntu.  I have a Kubuntu splash screen and whatnot but everything in the operating system itself still looks like plain old Ubuntu with the brown theme.  I have all of the Kubuntu applications but I can't access a few of them because I have No K button and it isn't using the Kubuntu menu structure.
[09:40] <vzduch> mavsman4457: so now leave the dash
[09:41] <rolfen> Zoffix: try apropos keyboard in the terminal maybe it's one of these
[09:41] <mavsman4457> vzduch: no such file or directoyry
[09:41] <bluefox83> head, if you go to System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts, you can map those extra buttons...i have several extra buttons that do assinine things like launch a browser and open a media player..i have them mapped in that
[09:41] <Bradf0rd> Hey, I'm in Ubuntu trying to put files into my Vista Partition, but it tells me I don't have permission to do that, does that mean I need to be root?
[09:41] <Zoffix> rolfen, it was "keytouch" :D
[09:41] <vzduch> mavsman4457: in which directory are you?
[09:41] <sharperguy> what line would i use in /etc/sudoers to let the usergroup FOOBAR use any command except su?
[09:41] <Zoffix> bluefox83, thanks a lot.
[09:41] <vega> i cant start my pc  is thare is any way to backup my files before doing new install
[09:42] <mavsman4457> vzduch: gpg i think
[09:42] <numus> anyone know how to map extra buttons on a mouse
[09:42] <stefg> head, but afaics postfix isn't dependent on anything X11 (says synaptic). Sure it's postfix that tries to draw all that stuff ?
[09:42] <bluefox83> did i totally just tell the wrong person how to map keys? :D
[09:42] <numus> yes
[09:42] <bluefox83> haha!
[09:42] <numus> bluefox83: was wondering if you were talking to me
[09:42] <Zoffix> lol
[09:42] <bluefox83> that's funny:P
[09:42] <Bradf0rd> So, Can root edit other OS's partitions?
[09:42] <AndyR> hi all
[09:42] <vega> help ...i cant start my pc  is thare is any way to backup my files before doing new install
[09:42] <vzduch> mavsman4457: can you paste your prompt (the part at the beginning of the line that ends w/ a $ and the blinking cursor)?
[09:42] <bluefox83> Bradf0rd, if you mount the partition correctly, any user can do it
[09:43] <Bradf0rd> I mounted it by right clicking and selecting "Mount" is there another way???
[09:43] <soneil> Bradf0rd: rule of thumb.  root can do anything the OS is capable.  even if it hurts a lot
[09:43] <head> stefg: yes i am... i only do aptitude install postfix...nothing else... god, i miss use flags :)
[09:43] <numus> bluefox83: Where di dyou say those settings are.. i can't find them in keyboard preferencers
[09:43] <vega> help ...i cant start my pc  is thare is any way to backup my files before doing new install
[09:43] <roy> vega: you could save the files with a live cd
[09:44] <bluefox83> numus, keyboard shortcuts
[09:44] <stefg> head... you're not going to take suggestions as dependencies, are you?
[09:44] <Bradf0rd> soneil, but to another OS's Partition... Like Vista's?
[09:44] <mavsman4457> vzduch: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29141/
[09:44] <roy> knoppix for example
[09:44] <Jack_Sparrow> vega.. livecd
[09:44] <kitche> head: what is the thing that you think is x11
[09:44] <vega> roy; you mean booting from live cd?
[09:44] <Squirrely_Wrath> Okay, I just converted ubuntu to Kubuntu.  I have a Kubuntu splash screen and whatnot but everything in the operating system itself still looks like plain old Ubuntu with the brown theme.  I have all of the Kubuntu applications but I can't access a few of them because I have No K button and it isn't using the Kubuntu menu structure.
[09:44] <roy> yes
[09:44] <Bradf0rd> Bluefox83, I mounted it by right clicking and selecting "Mount" is there another way???
[09:44] <vega> ok
[09:44] <soneil> Bradf0rd, if linux is capable of writing to the filesystem, so is root.  Vista I can't vouch for specifically .. I've managed not to touch it so far
[09:44] <numus> Bluefox83: I am really looking for foward and back on firefox to set my mouse keys
[09:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Squirrely_Wrath: click on options where you login with your user name
[09:45] <bluefox83> numus, oh..i don't think i know how to do that one...

[09:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Select which WM to use
[09:45] <bluefox83> Bradf0rd, yeah, you should look on the ubuntu guides for how to mount an ntfs partition with read/write access...
[09:45] <rolfen> ok extremely stupid question: but i'm too lazy to google it: how do you make sure beryl is automatically enabled at startup?
[09:45] <vzduch> mavsman4457: strange, it should be there..
[09:45] <bluefox83> Bradf0rd, to my knowledge the only way the right-clicky way works for partitions, is read-only
[09:45] <Bradf0rd> bluefox83, AIGHT. Thx
[09:45] <stefg> head: emacs ???
[09:45] <vzduch> mavsman4457: are you sure you downloaded the key?
[09:46] <mavsman4457> i have to go but i shall try again later

[09:46] <Squirrely_Wrath> Can't Bradf)rd use the program in Automatix to mount the nefs file system?
[09:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Automatix is a BAD thing

[09:46] <AndyR> can anyone help me with the battery power meter not working on my compaq evo n160 in feisty?
[09:46] <A3n> and I don't know what to do with a debdiff file
[09:46] <magnetron> !automatix | Squirrely_Wrath Bradf0rd
[09:46] <ubotu> Squirrely_Wrath Bradf0rd: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:46] <bluefox83> Squirrely_Wrath, probably, but we don't recommend things in automatix cus it can totally fubar your system if you don't know what you are doing (and sometimes even if you do)
[09:47] <Squirrely_Wrath> um...Automatix has never been a bad thing for me.  Never tried their Mounter but everything else works great
[09:47] <head> stefg: yes, do you understand why i don't get it :)
[09:47] <magnetron> !worksforme | Squirrely_Wrath
[09:47] <ubotu> Squirrely_Wrath: 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.
[09:47] <Squirrely_Wrath> Ah, I see
[09:47] <stefg> head, there must be something wrong elsewhere
[09:47] <bluefox83> Squirrely_Wrath, i have never had trouble with it either, but there are oodles of people that have had to completely reinstall because of it...
[09:47] <vzduch> Squirrely_Wrath: you can do perfectly w/o Automatix

[09:48] <Squirrely_Wrath> Ah, I seeGUnna try the option at Login thing now and see what happens.

[09:48] <numus> Bluefox83: Do you know where the mouse shortcuts for copy and paste are?
[09:48] <magnetron> johnnyg: add it to /etc/hosts
[09:48] <head> stefg: thats the thing, because if i try to install postfix with apt-get the only packages that are installed are openssl postfix ssl-cert
[09:48] <numus> Bluefox83: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto in the future reference i guess

[09:51] <kavon89> Jack_Sparrow: nope
[09:51] <Jack_Sparrow> had to ask
[09:51] <kavon89> Jack_Sparrow: oh wait
[09:51] <A3n> I had the same problem, but after installing flash it worked :)
[09:51] <johnnyg> magnetron: ok, that is done. I now load domain.com via domain.com. However, how can I check to make sure it is pulling from the new server?  (Sorry, I know it is a dumb question, but that doesn't mean I know the answer)
[09:51] <A3n> atleast in FF
[09:51] <kavon89> I have Teamspeak2, but it is idle
[09:51] <Jack_Sparrow> kavon89: shut it down and try youtube again.

[09:53] <bluefox83> A3n, it looks liek you have an actual bug...my suggestion would honestly be to download the feisty iso and install from the disk cus it looks like stuff is going to break if you do it with update manager...

[09:54] <Ominous> what was the firewall backend firewall for linux called again
[09:55] <borschty_> iptables
[09:55] <teer2> Dalton: I had to enable the "ADC" channel.  This was documented by the ALSA team - kudo to their community: http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/Cs46xx
[09:55] <Jack_Sparrow> firestarter or guarddog
[09:55] <Ominous> ty
[09:55] <numus> ahh k
[09:56] <kitche> OmegaCenti: it's iptables
[09:56] <teer2> Dalton: So this issue was made harder than it should have been in Ubuntu because of card-specific issues.  Frustrating, but at least not everyone has to go through it.
[09:56] <roy> if i install kde on ubuntu, can i remove it safely so that i have gnome again?
[09:56] <vzduch> Jack_Sparrow: the backend, not the frontend
[09:56] <Dalton> teer2, atleast it works for you now though.
[09:57] <dr_willis> roy,  installing kde, does NOT remove gnome
[09:57] <Jack_Sparrow> roy you can have a few and switch between them
[09:57] <roy> ah cool

[10:00] <rockets> vzduch, that doesnt work for me though. I have a HUGE amount of stuff to import, so I need to edit it before importing to exaile (gtk amarok) or It'll be too confusing

[10:10] <omarion> after installing feisty, my pc boots windows directly without asking me to choose between ubuntu or windows, what's the problem?
[10:10] <buize> borschty_: can i get that from synaptic?
[10:11] <Jerome_> newtron: no, do you have a link or information on it?
[10:11] <newtron> Use alien and turn the rpm to a deb, it _should_ work
[10:11] <n3rrd> Every time that I have tried to install the nVidia drivers, x putters out on me.
[10:11] <borschty_> if you have ubuntu it should already be installed
[10:11] <ax1s> what happened to the realplayer10 package
[10:11] <n3rrd> so eh, I'll stick with what works.
[10:11] <newtron> Jerome_, alien is pretty easy to use/understand
[10:11] <buize> oh ok

[10:11] <nny> stefg: trying that hda howto now
[10:11] <ax1s> realplayer package not in canonical any more?
[10:12] <waseem> anybody on installion problems
[10:12] <newtron> Jerome_, no... Alien can take rpms and turn them into debs, and vice versa.  And on the srm project page, they have rpms.
[10:12] <newtron> That is, if you don't want to compile srm from src
[10:12] <newtron> one sec though, I might be able to find a deb
[10:13] <omarion> after installing feisty, my pc boots windows directly without asking me to choose between ubuntu or windows, what's the problem?
[10:13] <n3rrd> has anyone been able to install aMSN 0.97 through the packaged installer in 64-bit Ubuntu?

[10:14] <x_> hi
[10:14] <x_> hi
[10:14] <ax1s> less then 3 weeks ago i could apt-get install realplayer - to install realplayer 10
[10:15] <rambo3> !find realplayer
[10:15] <ax1s> after adding caonical repo to my sources..  i just did that, why is the package obsolete/etc
[10:15] <Anthology> how come when i switch between my virtual machines using Ctrl+Alt+F(1-6) I am unable to switch back to my x server one at F7
[10:15] <x_> anyone is here??
[10:15] <ubotu> Package/file realplayer does not exist in feisty
[10:15] <waseem> kkkk
[10:15] <sbalneav> x_: lots of people.
[10:15] <alexIdoia> what can cause a connection refused when using ssh ?
[10:15] <ax1s> rambo3: Well how come I am finding official how-to's for it then?
[10:15] <ax1s> rambo3: Do you want a url/
[10:16] <brunner> There's no hda in /dev when I boot from the ubuntu live cd
[10:16] <sbalneav> alexIdoia: If there's no ssh server running on the remote machine, that can cause it.  Or, a firewall blocking port 22
[10:16] <rambo3> ax1s, no , i don't need real player and i doubt it was in official  repos
[10:16] <vzduch> !info realplay
[10:16] <rambo3> !restricted | rambo3
[10:16] <brunner> never mind. I didn't realize my laptop uses SATA
[10:16] <ubotu> Package realplay does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:16] <ax1s> rambo3: it was in canonicals, read what i am saying
[10:16] <rolfen> guys i can actually hear my cpu or my gpu work (one of them... dunno)
[10:17] <rolfen> when i put the screen saver i hear a very high pitched noise (almost ultrasonic) coming from my board
[10:17] <ax1s> ## CANONICAL COMMERCIAL REPOSITORY (Hosted on Canonical servers, not Ubuntu
[10:17] <ax1s> ## servers. RealPlayer10
[10:17] <rolfen> and the sound system is off
[10:17] <kavon89> I downloaded the Java .bin thing from their site, how do I run it?
[10:17] <brunner> if I have two partitions on my hard drive, one being NTFS and the other ext3, an sda2 should exist in /dev, right?
[10:17] <pr4bh> shit, why is there no support for creative 24 bit usb external? :(
[10:17] <sam_> hey how do i install samba?
[10:17] <Flannel> !java | kavon89
[10:17] <ubotu> kavon89: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[10:17] <Flannel> kavon89: install the one from the repositories
[10:18] <rolfen> sam_ just install samba from synaptic
[10:18] <ax1s> kavon89: Do you want to install java6 plugin for firefox?
[10:18] <sbalneav> pr4bh: What, you mean the USB one?
[10:18] <rolfen> sam_ you want the samba server or client?
[10:18] <sbalneav> pr4bh: I'm using one right now.
[10:18] <sam_> i get an error
[10:18] <sam_> ill paste it to you
[10:18] <sam_> hang on
[10:18] <rolfen> ok
[10:18] <pr4bh> yeah
[10:18] <ax1s> kavon89: Do you want to install java6 plugin for firefox?
[10:19] <brunner> if I have two partitions on my hard drive, I should see sda, sda1, and sda2, right?
[10:19] <pr4bh> sbalneav: does ur surround work?
[10:19] <alexseif> how do I restore ubuntu to its installed defaults?
[10:19] <waseem> hello
[10:19] <ax1s> brunner: Yep
[10:19] <rolfen> hello waseem
[10:19] <kavon89> yes
[10:19] <ax1s> brunner: if both are active
[10:19] <sbalneav> pr4bh: Dunno, I don't use it for surround.  I only have one set of speakers.
[10:19] <rolfen> waseem ahla
[10:19] <omarion> does feisty installer ask me to install the bootloader or not? i just don't remember
[10:19] <ax1s> kavon89: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[10:19] <waseem> hello rolfen
[10:19] <sam_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29150/
[10:19] <pr4bh> well, one set works for me too.. i need 5.1 tho :(
[10:19] <alexseif> how do I restore ubuntu to its installed defaults?
[10:19] <sam_> that was the link to the error message
[10:19] <ax1s> Flannel: Eat it
[10:19] <waseem> i need some help on installation
[10:19] <pr4bh> damn i spent 100 quid just on 5 speakers now i want them to work lol
[10:20] <waseem> on my laptop
[10:20] <sam_> i don't know if i want the server or the client
[10:20] <brunner> ax1s: I only have sda and sda1, could that be because sda is my cd-rom?
[10:20] <rolfen> sam_ it says samba is already the newest version.
[10:20] <ax1s> brunner: is your cdrom sata?
[10:20] <Chousuke> terinyk :(
[10:20] <kavon89> axls: will "  sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin " get me the full JRE so I can run java programs?
[10:20] <rolfen> sam_ so i guess you already have it
[10:20] <brunner> ax1s: this is a laptop. I've never opened it up.
[10:20] <Chousuke> meh
[10:20] <sam_> yeh but what about the [fail]  bit
[10:20] <sbalneav> waseem: What is not doing?
[10:20] <ax1s> brunner: what are you trying to do exactly, add a windows partition to view?
[10:20] <alexseif> how do I restore ubuntu to its installed defaults?
[10:20] <Chousuke> wrong channel
[10:20] <ax1s> brunner: word
[10:21] <brunner> ax1s: I just installed ubuntu for the first time on a second partition, and I'm trying to install a bootloader so I can use it
[10:21] <sam_> what is samba for
[10:21] <sam_> i thought it was essential
[10:21] <rolfen> sam_ hold on
[10:21] <vzduch> !samba | sam
[10:21] <brunner> ax1s: I'm currently booted off of a live cd
[10:21] <ubotu> sam: 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
[10:21] <sbalneav> alexseif: Which, your whole ubuntu, or are you just trying to get your desktop back to the defaults?
[10:21] <kerneld> Does ubuntu have an equiv of volatile.d.o ? I want to keep my clamav bleeding
[10:21] <brunner> sam_: "windows file sharing" and you probably don't need it
[10:21] <rolfen> sam_ samba is for browsing and hosting windows shares
[10:22] <sam_> oh wait
[10:22] <sam_> i think i  do
[10:22] <ax1s> brunner: Why are you trying to find partitions?
[10:22] <alexseif> sbalneav: the whole thing would be preferable
[10:22] <sam_> right heres what i want: i want to add my ubuntu desktop to my windows home network
[10:22] <ax1s> alexseif: sudo dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop
[10:22] <brunner> ax1s: I want to mount the partition ubuntu is installed on so I can find /boot/grub/stage1
[10:22] <sam_> i can't get it to add the right domain
[10:22] <alexseif> axls: what does that do
[10:22] <sam_> *sorry not domain workgroup
[10:23] <sam_> how do i sort this out?
[10:23] <ax1s> alexseif: should reconfigure ubuntu-desktop to defaults
[10:23] <kavon89> wow, i can't find the terminal :/
[10:23] <rolfen> sam_ you want to use integrate ubuntu to the domain?
[10:23] <ax1s> kavon89: alt-f2 terminal
[10:23] <Squirrely_Wrath> Can someone help me?  Using Kubuntu, just switched to it.  I do not have a KDE Control Center that I can tell.
[10:23] <ax1s> brunner: make a folder
[10:23] <Squirrely_Wrath> Not in the menu anyway
[10:23] <sam_> what?
[10:23] <waseem> so that means i get no help today
[10:23] <sbalneav> alexseif: That's kind of hard.  I'd just restore from a known good backup, myself.
[10:23] <sam_> i want to add it into my workgroup so i can access it through  a windows pc
[10:24] <ax1s> brunner: make a folder then type, "sudo mount /dev/sda1 /folder"
[10:24] <Johto> funny thing, i installed kubuntu stuff, but ihaven foudn a way to remove "kubuntu" boot logo back to ubuntu...
[10:24] <Anthology> when i switch from my x server virtual console to another virtual console, when i attempt to switch back all i see is my curser on an empty screen. how do i fix it so i can switch in between them seemlessly?
[10:24] <ax1s> sbalneav: if Alex had one, they wouldn't be asking how to do this
[10:24] <sbalneav> waseem: What problem are you having with the install?
[10:24] <ax1s> god
[10:24] <rolfen> sam_ ok i understand... yeah afaik you need samba
[10:24] <pguser> Guys ubuntu shows my windows folders but grub won't boot into windows. WTF?
[10:24] <pguser> Guys ubuntu shows my windows folders but grub won't boot into windows. WTF?
[10:24] <alexIdoia> hi I would like to have the amount of memory used (RAM) in my top bar is it possible ?
[10:24] <waseem> du
[10:24] <alexseif> sbalneave: i want to return to the  previous installation of some of the packages
[10:24] <borschty_> joh
[10:24] <ax1s> wow there are alot of ppl here
[10:24] <brunner> ax1s: well I'm puzzled as to why I only have sda1 and no sda2 when I have two partitions
[10:24] <ax1s> who are *matter of fact
[10:24] <ax1s> who know shit
[10:25] <ax1s> brunner: why do you think you have two partitions
[10:25] <aroo> !ohmy
[10:25] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[10:25] <stefg> Squirrely_Wrath: #kubuntu is probably a better place to ask
[10:25] <sam_> rolfen so what do i do now?
[10:25] <waseem> sbalneav during its installation it gives an error of tty
[10:25] <DilfATX> Hi guys.. quick question.. I have seen this method done before.. but have not yet found out with Ubuntu Ulitmate.... How do I update my Ubuntu Fiesty to Ubuntu Ultimate (the new 1.4 version) through the terminal, i would like to avoid downloading an iso
[10:25] <Squirrely_Wrath> Oh...thanks
[10:25] <borschty_> Johto, try: sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh ubuntu-artwork
[10:25] <waseem> and does not go further
[10:25] <rolfen> sam_ can u try this in a terminal
[10:25] <Anthology> when i switch from my x server virtual console to another virtual console, when i attempt to switch back all i see is my curser on an empty screen. how do i fix it so i can switch in between them seemlessly?
[10:25] <Johto> borschty_: thanks, i will try that, i once tried something like that without effect..
[10:25] <sam_> yes
[10:25] <brunner> ax1s: because I'm on crack. I'll see you guys later. thanks very much for your help. I just realized what happened.
[10:25] <rolfen> sam_ go to /etc/init.d and ls and see if you have "samba" or "smbd"
[10:25] <ax1s> brunner:  :D
[10:25] <W1Z> Hey guys , im having a bit of trouble i have a lexmark x8350 and i just cant install any drivers to make it work. Any1 have any experience that can help me out
[10:25] <sbalneav> waseem: I've never heard of an "error of tty".  Could you please indicate what the EXACT error is, and how far it gets before the error.
[10:25] <ax1s> brunner:  GL dood ;]
[10:26] <capnfantasmo_> hello?
[10:26] <ax1s> i'm out
[10:26] <brunner> ax1s: thanks =]
[10:26] <stefg> DilfATX: you shouldn't do drugs.... :-)
[10:26] <capnfantasmo_> I'm new to ubuntu
[10:26] <sam_> how do i show the files in that directory in a terminal?
[10:26] <kerneld> !bots
[10:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bots - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:26] <W1Z> ls
[10:26] <rolfen> sam_ cd /etc/init.d
[10:26] <rolfen> sam_ ls
[10:26] <peek> paLanCakx5.9sYpGa6d.M1
[10:26] <capnfantasmo_> how does I fix my screen resolution?
[10:26] <sam_> ls thank you
[10:26] <version2> edit x.org
[10:27] <W1Z> np :)
[10:27] <sam_> it says samba and smb isnt there
[10:27] <rolfen> sam_ damn
[10:27] <oA-MCTom> hey, someone suggested I use GParted to partition my HD on windows, can anyone tell me how to actually use it? :)
[10:27] <sam_> something is working because i can access the windows comp, but it cant access me
[10:27] <version2> oA-MCTom: Run the program.
[10:27] <version2> :P
[10:28] <capnfantasmo_> Can someone help me fix my screen resolution?
[10:28] <oA-MCTom> would if I knew which one was the one to run :S
[10:28] <sam_> i think i just need to move workgroups
[10:28] <sam_> how do i do that?
[10:28] <waseem> sbalneav i agree , these are not the right words . but it goes for about 3 minutes of installation and then stucks
[10:28] <sbalneav> capnfantasmo_: You could go to System->Preferences-Screen Resolution.
[10:29] <DilfATX> stefg ? ? ? What do you mean.. the old version of Ultimate was based on Ubuntu 6 and thus the easy upgrade.. your saying that this new version of Ultimate is not based on the new version of Ubuntu? or you just don't know?
[10:29] <kerneld> grr 7.04 upgrade is taking forever. Leave it for a while and come back and a new pre-config dialog is waiting
[10:29] <sam_> rolfen?
[10:29] <rolfen> sam_ i dont think you can host windows shares without samba
[10:29] <dr_willis> Ultimate?
[10:29] <sam_> i know
[10:29] <rolfen> sam_ it may be a dumb answer but try to delete samba and install it again...
[10:30] <sam_> but i  have samba, but i stil lcan't so it
[10:30] <dr_willis> windows can use winscp or other tools to access files over ssh. if you dont want to use samba
[10:30] <numus> anyone mud in here?
[10:30] <sam_> how do i do that?
[10:30] <alexseif> what do you type to move the contents of a whole dir with folders and files inside
[10:30] <dr_willis> !info samba-doc
[10:30] <sam_> -purge?
[10:30] <ubotu> samba-doc: Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.2 (feisty), package size 6754 kB, installed size 14512 kB
[10:30] <rolfen> sam_ well you dont need samba to browse windows share
[10:30] <dr_willis> Samba-doc has 2 books on confoguraing samba in it. :)
[10:30] <IntuitiveNipple> Does anyone know how to reinstall the snd-hda-intel driver in Feisty? I uninstalled the Linuxant HSF modem driver and it has removed it. As far as I recall snd-hda-intel was installed by Ubuntu, not Linuxant
[10:30] <alexseif> what do you type to move the contents of a whole dir with folders and files inside
[10:30] <stefg> DilfATX: i have no idea what you mean by ultimate, ubuntu 7.04 is the latest usable version, and if you seek support for ubuntu-spin-offs you will not get it here
[10:30] <kerneld> sam_: if you try delete/reinstall - be sure to purge it.
[10:30] <capnfantasmo_> sbalneav: tried that. only lets me go to 1024 when I know this monitor and card are capable of 1600
[10:30] <sam_> how do i purge
[10:30] <rolfen> sam_ you only need samba to host windows shares
[10:31] <kerneld> sam_: sudo dpkg --purge samba
[10:31] <kerneld> sam_: maybe sudo dpkg --pending --purge
[10:31] <sbalneav> capnfantasmo_: Then I'd say you want to take a look at the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
[10:31] <alexseif> what do you type to move the contents of a whole dir with folders and files inside
[10:31] <oA-MCTom> so, yeah, can someone tell me how to compile gparted in windows please?  All the instructions seem to be about how to do it in linux
[10:31] <W1Z> Any1 mind helping me install a lexmark x8350 printer?
[10:31] <capnfantasmo_> sbalneav: I just installed my first copy of linux last night. I don't even know how to do that.
[10:31] <kerneld> sam_: And then make sure the config files are gone from /etc/samba
[10:32] <dr_willis> W1Z,  ick. :) You dont want to know the # of lexmarks ive thrown away
[10:32] <alexseif> what do you type to move the contents of a whole dir with folders and files inside
[10:32] <dr_willis> W1Z,  check the cups.org site to see if its even supported.
[10:32] <sam_> ok
[10:32] <W1Z> kk will do
[10:32] <W1Z> thanks
[10:32] <sbalneav> capnfantasmo_: What kind of card is it?
[10:32] <alexseif> I need a simple command
[10:32] <capnfantasmo_> sbalneav: ATI Radeon X300 SE
[10:32] <dr_willis> alexseif,  i cheat and install/use 'mc' for that stuff mainly
[10:32] <dr_willis> !info mc
[10:32] <ubotu> mc: midnight commander - a powerful file manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:4.6.1-7ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 2057 kB, installed size 5944 kB
[10:33] <oA-MCTom> radeon x300 cant run higher than 1280x1024 I think
[10:33] <alexseif> no other way around it
[10:33] <sbalneav> capnfantasmo_: I'm not up on ATI cards, but you may need to install the propriatary ATI drivers to get a higher resolution.
[10:33] <dr_willis> alexseif,  read the docs for mv or cp. and a few bash guides .... and learn how to use the shell.
[10:33] <kerneld> uboto is kind of fact sparse compared to dpkg :/  do people use a different fact repo on ubunto?
[10:33] <capnfantasmo_> oA-MCTom: and that's the resolution I'm trying to achieve
[10:34] <oA-MCTom> oh, lol, ok :)
[10:34] <dr_willis> alexseif,  i dont do that stuff enough to rember the proper syntax off hand.
[10:34] <sbalneav> capnfantasmo_: Check System-Administration->Restricted Driver Manager, and see if it thinks you need the ATI driver.
[10:34] <dr_willis> i would guess mv -R , but not sure.
[10:34] <W1Z> ooo crap no ppd support :( so that mean im kinda screwed for using this printer? lol
[10:34] <DilfATX> ??? not one person has even acknowledged my question
[10:34] <capnfantasmo_> sbalneav: HA! thanks
[10:35] <sbalneav> DilfATX: I haven't seen it.
[10:35] <dr_willis> W1Z,  perhaps.. saved you a lot of time however. :)
[10:35] <kerneld> DilfATX: Join the club. Happens to me alot :P
[10:35] <oA-MCTom> DelfATX: same for me, oh well :S
[10:35] <dr_willis> W1Z,  now ya know whjy ive tossed so many lexmarks.. canon got me mad at them also
[10:35] <numus> anyone know how to get a microsoft lifecam 1100 to work on linux?
[10:35] <gtr> I have my wireless netowrking working perfectly, but my wired doesn't seem to be working.  Where should I start configuring my Wired Network.  I want to try to plug directly into the router?
[10:35] <W1Z> haha fro real
[10:35] <kerneld> DilfATX: Don't take it peronal it prob got lost in the chatter
[10:35] <W1Z> its koo i got the windows hd for printing
[10:36] <dr_willis> W1Z,  when the cost of a ink cart. is more then the cost of the printer... thats scary.
[10:36] <sam_> ok that didn't work
[10:36] <Ghlave> If I have a raid5 array, 1 drive just failed, I shutdown and unplugged the wrong drive, is there anyway to get the array back up now?
[10:36] <W1Z> thats tru
[10:36] <sam_> i removed the conf files, purged and reinstalled
[10:36] <sam_> same error
[10:36] <dr_willis> W1Z,  i just spent over $100 in color ink carts for the wife last week.
[10:36] <kerneld> I normally get caught up answering other questions and my own prob gets left on the way side
[10:36] <kerneld> sam_: what error
[10:36] <W1Z> ouch :( thats a wallet breaker
[10:36] <sam_> all i want to do, i dont know if i need to play with samba or whatever, is move workgroups, is this possible?
[10:37] <sbalneav> Ghlave: ergh, what kind of raid5?  Software or hardware?
[10:37] <W1Z> what printer r u using now?
[10:37] <dr_willis> 'move' workgroups?
[10:37] <sam_> this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/29150/
[10:37] <Ghlave> sbalneav: software
[10:37] <dr_willis> W1Z,  my main printer is a 10 yr old HP laserjet. :)
[10:37] <LucianIndy> !beryl
[10:37] <ubotu> beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. Help in #ubuntu-effects
[10:37] <W1Z> hahaha figures nothing new will work
[10:37] <dr_willis> sam_,  the workgroup fot the linux box is defined in the samba config file near the top
[10:37] <hedbruno> helo
[10:38] <sbalneav> Ghlave: Did you try a rebuild with the wrong drive in?
[10:38] <sam_> what? i don't understand
[10:38] <W1Z> dr_willis, thats why ya dual boot lol thumbs drives r my friend now
[10:38] <sam_> i don't have a samba config file. someone told me to delete it.
[10:38] <sbalneav> DilfATX: Can you repeat your question?
[10:38] <the_diablo_devil> hi
[10:38] <the_diablo_devil> iam new here
[10:38] <rolfen> sam_ yeah delete it then reinstall :)
[10:38] <dr_willis> sam_,  I havent a clue what you are really trying to do either.. If you installed samba, it should of put one in there.. if you reinstall the samba package. it should install the default one.
[10:38] <sam_> i have
[10:38] <sam_> it hasnt came back
[10:39] <dr_willis> Or make one up from scratch. Or find an example one
[10:39] <kerneld> sam_: That was me - after you purged prior to a re-instal.  Reinstal should have added a new config
[10:39] <sam_> and i dont know how to correctly configure it
[10:39] <the_diablo_devil> i search a german ubuntu channel
[10:39] <rolfen> dr_willis i dont think samba is starting on his box
[10:39] <sam_> there is no new config file
[10:39] <Phoenigore> the_diablo_devil #ubuntu.de
[10:39] <kerneld> sam_: Do you have a smbd or nmbd still running from old install?
[10:39] <Ghlave> sbalneav: when I realized what had happened, I shutdown, plugged it back in, and when I booted it began rebuilding the drive I had unplugged. While it was doing so, the bad drive got marked as faulty, and I kept getting errors that said it couldn't recover from
[10:39] <dr_willis> i would paste mine.. but my config is rather tweaked.
[10:39] <sam_> i dont know
[10:39] <W1Z> Is samba good ? like reliable
[10:39] <TreMobyl> what is the printer config tool that one is supposed to use?
[10:39] <kerneld> sam_: ps aux | grep [sn] mbd
[10:39] <sbalneav> Ghlave: ergh.  That's not good.
[10:40] <sam_> what did that command do?
[10:40] <W1Z> TreMobyl. goto cups.org and see if there are drive support for your printer
[10:40] <W1Z> i just had the same question
[10:40] <rolfen> sam_ look for smbd or nmbd
[10:40] <kerneld> W1Z: Yeah - it works well.  but depends how you want to stretch it :P
[10:40] <nny> stefg: hmm updated to latest alsa via that link you sent, still cannot get headphone out to work
[10:40] <sam_> #how?
[10:40] <rolfen> sam_ thats what the command did :)
[10:40] <dr_willis> !find smb.conf
[10:41] <sam_> nothing came up
[10:41] <ubotu> File smb.conf found in gosa, linpopup, samba-common, samba-doc, smbldap-tools
[10:41] <sam_> what was that?
[10:41] <sbalneav> Ghlave: Please say you've got backups? :)
[10:41] <dr_willis> reinstall samba-common ?
[10:41] <kerneld> sam_: did you purge samba-common
[10:41] <W1Z> well im just thinking like a little comp maybe a p3 to host some files on my network like mp3s and such and just get them from say my vista or xp machine
[10:41] <sam_> i dont know
[10:41] <nny> stefg: although i did notice that i have alsaconf and /etc/init.d/aslasound now
[10:41] <sam_> i dont think so
[10:41] <Ghlave> sbalneav: well, there -may- be hope, but I'm not sure how to do this. There are 2 raid5 arrays, and 1 lvm stretched across them. The array that is now screwy was pretty much brand new, and had just had the lvm increased over it, so it wasn't very full yet. Is it possible to shrink back the lvm onto the existing array?
[10:41] <sam_> should i?
[10:41] <dr_willis> I rember there being a smb.conf on my box befor i even installed samba
[10:41] <Ghlave> sbalneav: yea, no backups :(
[10:41] <kerneld> sam_: That why you config didn't get remade. Sorry
[10:41] <sam_> ok
[10:41] <TreMobyl> W1Z: no, I mean what is the gui config tool that I'm supposed to use in ubuntu?
[10:42] <sam_> so dpkg --purge samba-common
[10:42] <sam_> ?
[10:42] <TreMobyl> looks like gnome-cups-admin is the only thing that got installed by default
[10:42] <dr_willis> that will remove it.. :) yes...
[10:42] <W1Z> ooooo lol system then administator
[10:42] <dr_willis> or will that just remove the configs?
[10:42] <W1Z> and then click printing
[10:42] <TreMobyl> that's gnome-cups-admin
[10:42] <kerneld> sam_: sudo dpkg --purge samba samba-common; dpkg -S /etc/samba -- should then be empty result.   then you can remove /etc/samba and start fresh
[10:42] <TreMobyl> I remember that there's another tool that is better
[10:43] <TreMobyl> gnome-cups-manager, that is
[10:43] <W1Z> ya that 2
[10:43] <sbalneav> Ghlave: I don't know much about lvm, but I'd wager you'd have trouble, as I can't see lvm letting you shrink a FS that way, but you could try.
[10:43] <Ltar> how to make Thunar my default file browser? I tried using the script found on this site: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease , but It doesn't seem to have worked.
[10:43] <TreMobyl> there is another tool that was to be used going forward, but it doesn't seem to have been installed by default
[10:43] <sbalneav> Ghlave: If you stick in the wrong drive you yanked, can you get the arryay up in degraded mode?
[10:44] <kerneld> sam_: other things may have a dependency on samba-common though so if that purge doesn't work straight up let us know
[10:44] <TreMobyl> system-config-printer
[10:44] <TreMobyl> there we go
[10:44] <lousygarua> how to i 'align to right' gnome applets? sometimes when changing resolutions applets seem to stay on the same X instead of sticking to the right
[10:44] <goldfingermafia> anyone have any experince setting up kismet?
[10:44] <Ghlave> sbalneav: not now, the system looks at it as a spare and says only 2 devices active
[10:44] <sam_> i cant purge it
[10:45] <sam_> smbclient needs it
[10:45] <sam_> and i cant purge that because  ubuntu-desktop needs that
[10:45] <dr_willis> ubuntu-desktop is a meta-package. doesent mean much. :)
[10:45] <kerneld> goldfingermafia: setting up? I didn't need to do anything to set it up.   my wifi config was OK for kismet to work out of the box - but then I was using madwifi which might be different than what you are using.
[10:45] <borschty_> you can uninstall ubuntu-desktop it is just a meta-package
[10:45] <oA-MCTom> ok, can someone please tell me how to run gparted in windows? :)
[10:45] <Toulouse> hey guys, i have two computers sitting here wired together, one of them has a wifi card and can conect to the internet, is there any way i can let both of them work off of one wifi card???
[10:46] <borschty_> you can reinstall it after
[10:46] <dr_willis> Toulouse,  yes.. but its been ages since ive done stuff like that.
[10:46] <goldfingermafia> i get a cannont find 'your_user _name_here_' when i try to start kismet
[10:46] <Holty101> hi guys wodering if you can help i installed KDE didnt like it so uninstalled it but on start up still get kbuntu and software still in gnomeany ideas how to fix?
[10:46] <dr_willis> Toulouse,  not sure if ubuntu has some nice clicky tools to enable that or not.
[10:46] <Toulouse> dr_willis: ok, so it can be done
[10:46] <Toulouse> ok
[10:46] <HOT> god dammit i love ubuntu
[10:46] <kerneld> sam_: Well -- you might want an ubuntu guro to say yay-or-nay on this.  But it should be fine since you are purging for a re-instal...
[10:46] <dr_willis> Toulouse,  yep. ages ago i would say follow the 'ip-masquerading howto' but not sure now a days
[10:46] <Toulouse> i didnt know if this is somehting that could even be done
[10:46] <HOT> needs to be said more often
[10:47] <dr_willis> Toulouse,  rather trivial actually :)
[10:47] <rolfen> sam_ ?
[10:47] <sam_> a reinstall of what?
[10:47] <capnfantasmo> okay. so i restart and it still says the max resolution is 1024
[10:47] <sam_> yes rolfen
[10:47] <sbalneav> Ghlave: Can you mount the filesystem read-only and ignoring errors?
[10:47] <dr_willis> Toulouse, pc #2 uses Pc #1 as its default gateway,  basicially. it forwards all the info to the net.
[10:47] <rolfen> sam_ oh nothing wanted to check how things were going with samba
[10:47] <kerneld> sam_: sudo dpkg --force-depends --purge samba samba-common; sudo rm -f /etc/samba/smb.conf; sudo apt-get install samba samba-common
[10:47] <sbalneav> Ghlave: If you can, I would, and grab a backup of what you can before proceeding.
[10:47] <sam_> will that work?
[10:47] <Ghlave> sbalneav: is that possible using just 2 drives out of an array?
[10:48] <sam_> yay!
[10:48] <sbalneav> Well, you said this array was part of an lvm
[10:48] <sam_> no error messages with samba install this time
[10:48] <rolfen> sam_ cool!
[10:48] <sam_> now: how do i configure it to join my workgroup
[10:48] <sbalneav> try mounting the lvm, ro, and ignore erros.
[10:48] <goldfingermafia> anyone know why kismet wont start for me? i get a incoorect suiduser name error?
[10:48] <slavik> sam_: just change the WORKGROUP= line in /etc/samba/smb.conf
[10:49] <sam_> ok thank you
[10:49] <slavik> then restart samba :) (sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart)
[10:49] <sam_> will that require a restart?
[10:49] <kerneld> goldfingermafia: It might be set to change uid in a config to a uid that doesn't exist
[10:49] <rolfen> sam_ no restart needed in linux
[10:49] <HOT> is there anything that can compete with amarok that is gnome native?
[10:50] <goldfingermafia> what is the starndard userid, i og in with goldfingermafia, and i set it in the file to goldfingermafia

[10:50] <slavik> sam_: just rescan?
[10:51] <oA-MCTom> ok, a different question, can anyone suggest any good partitioning software?
[10:51] <sbalneav> HOT: works for me.
[10:51] <nny> ok well anyone have advice into getting intel HDA headphone jacks working?
[10:51] <HOT> alright, thanks

[10:51] <rolfen> uh sorry sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[10:51] <Saber57> o_O
[10:52] <slavik> sam_: also consider installing winbind and changing nsswitch.conf to be able to ping by the WINS name :) (Windows calls it "Computer name"
[10:52] <sacater> on the ubuntu forums, how do I change my 'first cup of ubuntu' setting to something higher
[10:52] <jkthecjer> goldfingermafia:did you try doing "sudo kismet"?
[10:52] <Saber57> where's a good place to get custom themes for xchat?
[10:52] <HOT> one more thing, i need to delay kida-docks when i start X for reasons i wont bore you with, however when i use sleep && at the session command line it doesnt launch, therefore i need a way to launch it after a delay that doesnt use session
[10:52] <capnfantasmo> i opened xorg.conf in gedit and it's blank
[10:53] <HOT> /etc/X11/xorg.conf is blank ?
[10:53] <danya_> hello ?
[10:53] <LukeEkblad> Hi, how do I get kiba dock?
[10:53] <kerneld> sam_: Do you have DNS configured on your LAN?
[10:53] <sam__> hi everyone, sorry i pulled out my power cable by accident
[10:53] <capnfantasmo> haha
[10:53] <FruitieX> lawl
[10:54] <danya_> Guys I need help with my flash player :(
[10:54] <fisherhome> when will Bluetooth A/C electricity be available?  (joke)
[10:54] <FruitieX> hehe
[10:54] <danya_> I couldnt install it have s.. I have some architecture 64 problem something like that I Have Intel vcard ..
[10:54] <kerneld> sam_: You may need to edit you windows pcs lmhosts files - or be patient.
[10:55] <capnfantasmo> so I opened up the terminal and input sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.custom
[10:55] <holst> what is the matter with the breezy repositories?
[10:55] <capnfantasmo> it didn't do anything
[10:55] <zsh> !offtopic > fisherhome
[10:55] <LukeEkblad> I need help downloading Kiba dock,  I dont know where to get it or how to get it
[10:55] <rolfen> lol @ sam
[10:55] <kerneld> sam_: The bet way IMHO is to configure DNS on your LAN and you don't have to rely on the stone age LANMAN name resolution
[10:56] <sam__> ok. thanks for your help everyone, the computer is in the workgroup!

[10:56] <LucianIndy> Hello. I have beryl installed on a computer with a nVidia card and one with Intel graphics. Both are not showing titlebars and window borders. Is there a fix for this?

[10:56] <sam__> yes
[10:56] <sam__> i havent got a share yet
[10:56] <slavik> sam__: man smbpasswd :)
[10:56] <kerneld> sam__: You can create passwords on smaba with the smbpasswd command. You need to have a matching linux user
[10:56] <igor47> hi, i'm trying to run javaws - ubuntu tells me to install j2re1.4 but i have and still get the same message

[10:58] <sam__> how do i set the password for accessing my samba share?
[10:58] <sam__> where is my samba share?
[10:58] <kerneld> sam__: In a WORKGROUP setup - it works bets if you have the same username on the windows systems as on your samba box - with smbpasswd you can create a user with the same password as you use on your windows pcs, then it won't ask for a password as windows caches the password(Yuk!) and attempts to authenticate with it (Yuk! Yuk!)

[11:00] <sam__> i want to drag files from my windows comp into my linux
[11:00] <HOT> sam_ and you are sharing to another linux machine?
[11:00] <kerneld> sam__: Or you could just edit smb.conf its pretty easy. there should be same ample share there already
[11:00] <nny> so whats the options here. Been trying to get this headphone jack working for a long time. Tried uboto's automated response, tried all kind of config changes, compiles, and sacrificing small animals but yet, it remains unfixed. is there a place I can post a request for someone to look at this issue... thinking of a forum post, but well... all the forums posts I have found just tell each other to try the things i have tried
[11:00] <LucianIndy> i have windows, just no titlebar with the minimize, maximize, and close buttons and window borders
[11:00] <d4rkmonkey> doo dee dah doo dam dil dit!
[11:00] <walid> hi,
[11:00] <HOT> sam_ it would be easier to set the share on the windows machine and send files to and from it
[11:00] <holst> what is the matter with the breezy repositories?
[11:00] <HOT> sam_ much easier
[11:00] <wdar> hello

[11:03] <HOT> save the reboot
[11:03] <Lamego> Piro, just leave unpartioned space for the ubuntu install
[11:03] <kerneld> HOT: Hmm 1) On windows - set a password for you username.   On linux: create a user with the same username, add a sambapasswd entry for that username and set the password to the same as the window password; add a share to smb.conf by copying one of the other shares .  restart samba; good to go
[11:04] <sam__> how do i restart samba?
[11:04] <HOT> kerneld: be honest which looks easier :)
[11:04] <LukeEkblad> I have a problem with beryl.  when i maximize my window, it maxemizes but only into half the screen, how do i fix this?
[11:04] <Lamego> sam__, sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[11:04] <kerneld> sam_: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
[11:04] <[selfsearcher] > Piro do a backup before resizing your partition, if it's the case
[11:04] <HOT> anyway the point is sam_ both are valid ways of doing it
[11:04] <kerneld> HOT: But this is a learning experienc, and it is not very difficult - then it is easy
[11:05] <wdar> any body on help for installation
[11:05] <capnfantasmo_> what was that command again for restart x?
[11:05] <HOT> kerneld: alright , i agree

[11:11] <rolfen> sam__ do you want to remove the password from the share?
[11:11] <fisherhome> about:config will open up the huge list of configurable settings for firefox.. look through them, especially those related to memory and see if you can't get it to start w/ less bloat
[11:11] <kane77> HOT, its -safe-mode

[11:13] <kane77> kyle__, edit the xorg.conf file and add the resolution you want to use...
[11:14] <Ghlave> HOT: I need to get the total size of the partition though, not just the used space
[11:14] <logan_> Typing in here isnt even showing up until 4-5 seconds later, thus the typos
[11:14] <wdar> selfsearcher r u getting me
[11:14] <Zerro> hi i have a strange problem i try to install ubutnu on sata normal "not raid" hdds and it just hangs in "starting up the partitioner" in alternative cd install and with live cd it do the same .... any idea ??
[11:14] <kane77> logan_, why is it that slow?
[11:14] <kyle__> thanks kane
[11:14] <logan_> kane77 That is what I am asking her
[11:14] <SlimG> blackace11: http://www.linuxalt.com/
[11:14] <logan_> here*
[11:14] <Nutubuntu> Zerro, is it a new HD? or has it been partitioned before?
[11:14] <kane77> kyle__, but remember to BACK UP that file!!
[11:15] <pr4bh> Question: has anybody here managed to get sb live external usb to produce surround sound? for me, only the front speakers work
[11:15] <SlimG> blackace11: KSpread, Open Calc, Gnumeric
[11:15] <kawaaaaa> join #
[11:15] <kane77> logan_, try "top" to see what's using up the resources
[11:15] <blackace11> ok thanks!!
[11:15] <logan_> nothing is using a lot of resources on that list
[11:15] <Belial> What is the easiestway to get ubuntu to redetect and restore the option for windows in the .lst file in /boot. I had a friend who i edited the file to put windows at the top (Not thinking it would be a problem) Im now 400 or so miles away and need to sort him out. The menu order isnt to important right now, just an easy way to get him back dual booting
[11:15] <blackace11> can you help me get it working now?
[11:15] <logan_> I tried system monitor too
[11:15] <dbft> hey
[11:15] <Zerro> Nutubuntu: yea i have try to install it in raid but grub will not work so i try now install it on normal ide mode
[11:15] <dbft> if i use apt-get to install java6
[11:16] <dbft> where will it be installed to?
[11:16] <kane77> logan_, have you sorted it by cpu / memory?
[11:16] <sam__> i give up
[11:16] <pr4bh> Question: has anybody here managed to get sb live external usb to produce surround sound? for me, only the front speakers work
[11:16] <fisherhome> well ide won't work on a sata drive, so dont bother with ide mode
[11:16] <[selfsearcher] > wdar i found this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=279884 for a start. It's a "strange" problem... it could depend on a menu.lst or something else...
[11:16] <Ominous> why cant i switch user, shutdown, or restart with xgl enabled and when i press switch user i get an error "You do not seem to be logged in on the console, \n Starting a new logoin only works correctly on the console"
[11:16] <Nutubuntu> Zerro, I had a similar problem and ended up having to zero out track zero using a utility from Ultimate Boot Disk. After that it partitioned with no trouble.
[11:16] <kawaaaaa> hi i have a question about qindows
[11:16] <rolfen> hey sam__
[11:16] <kawaaaaa> windows
[11:16] <capnfantasmo> I got this error message "aticonfig: Writing to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' failed. Bad file descriptor"
[11:16] <sam__> thanks everyone for all of your help, i don't know what i would have done without you.
 if i use apt-get to install java6
 where will it be installed to?
[11:17] <kane77> kawaaaaa, go ahead.. but note that this is #ubuntu...
[11:17] <n3rrd> I installed the newest nVidia drivers from their website, just for shits and giggles, and it has killed X.  Under the Device section, it just lists driver as "nvidia"
[11:17] <wdar> thanks selfsearcher , i have a look onto it and come back to you
[11:17] <n3rrd> IS that correct? :S
[11:17] <Zerro> nutubuntu: oki i think i have the disk will try to see if it helps
[11:17] <Nutubuntu> !ohmy
[11:17] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:17] <n3rrd> Sorry.
[11:17] <Nutubuntu> Zerro good luck, stop back in and say how it went :)
[11:17] <sam_> yes?
[11:17] <sam_> just before i left someone said hey sam?

[11:18] <HOT> sam_
[11:18] <sam_> HOT
[11:18] <HOT> other people have given you there opinion here is mine, go to windows , share a directory
[11:18] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo did you install the modules too?
[11:18] <HOT> go to you ubuntu install and go to "windows network"
[11:18] <HOT> then click "search"
[11:19] <capnfantasmo> selfsearcher: I don't know.
[11:19] <theAnswer> cya
[11:19] <larson9999> is there a way to make the right control work with typeahead, typematc, repeat key, whatever you want to call it?
[11:19] <pr4bh> Question: has anybody here managed to get sb live external usb to produce surround sound? for me, only the front speakers work
[11:19] <kawaaaaa> yeah i know, i want to ask about windows, how to delete my system if a can't delete linux
[11:19] <Ominous> why cant i switch user, shutdown, or restart with xgl enabled and when i press switch user i get an error "You do not seem to be logged in on the console, \n Starting a new logoin only works correctly on the console"

[11:20] <sam_> im going
[11:20] <sam_> thank you everyone
[11:20] <n3rrd> Does anyone know what the "driver" part of the Device Section in XORG.CONF is supposed to say when you install new NVidia drivers?
[11:20] <n3rrd> Mine only says "nvidia" and X doesn't seem to think that I have an NVidia GPU installed... but the default Nvidia drivers work.
[11:20] <kitche2> n3rrd: nvidia
[11:20] <Morrissey> Hi ... I fund on a forum that I have to "allowing inbound tcp port 990 in my iptables configuration." .. anyone know how I would approach?
[11:20] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo you need fglrx... ok but you need also the modules as described in the Wiki. Search it
[11:21] <capnfantasmo> what wiki?
[11:21] <[selfsearcher] > !wiki
[11:21] <ubotu> http://wiki.ubuntu.com - Ubuntu development documentation wiki. If you are looking for system help, please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community - the Ubuntu community documentation.
[11:21] <capnfantasmo> that's cool
[11:21] <[selfsearcher] > say !wiki capnfantasmo
[11:21] <capnfantasmo> !wiki
[11:21] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo lol sorry ;)
[11:21] <capnfantasmo> what happen?
[11:21] <n3rrd> kitche2: how did you install your drivers?  I quit x, used sudo sh NVIDIA... and just went through the process... restarted and now X doesn't work.
[11:22] <cypruser> How do I install glibc-devel?
[11:22] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo nothing. Just search in the wiki for ATI drivers.
[11:22] <kyle__> how do I edit/backup xorg.conf?
[11:22] <Romeo5k> QUESTIOIN: if i am in Fiesty command prompt.. just got thru installing it.. and i type it : "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" is that installing a gui for the server, or is it writeing over the server and puttting the desktop?
[11:22] <[selfsearcher] > kyle__ backup = copy with a different name. Edit it ad root (sudo, in Ubuntu)
[11:23] <kitche2> n3rrd: like you did but with ubuntu some people rather use the package they have
[11:23] <HOT> kyle__: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11xorg.conf.bak | gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:23] <Nutubuntu> kyle__,  to backup: 'sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup'    to edit 'gksudo gedit /etc/Xorg/xorg.conf'
[11:23] <[selfsearcher] > kyle__ sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:23] <capnfantasmo> selfsearcher: that didn't help
[11:23] <icf7> Romeo5k: ANSWERE: installing a gui for the server, all installed packages stay
[11:23] <brunner> do you guys know if truecrypt can convert a FAT32 partition to an encrypted partition, or does it need free space?
[11:23] <Toulouse> how could i get two computers two connect to the internet when only one has a wifi card? they are linked via network cable
[11:23] <Romeo5k> whew.... Thank Gawd
[11:23] <DanaG> Is there any version of instlux that will install Feisty?
[11:24] <Romeo5k> ty icf7
[11:24] <n3rrd> kitche2: Okay.  I just can't figure out why it died on me... maybe it was because I had the default installed first...
[11:24] <kyle__> if your name shows up in yellow does that mean you're sending me a private message?
[11:24] <icf7> Toulouse: you may want to look up NAT, masquerading
[11:24] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo well, no luck this time :(
[11:24] <[selfsearcher] > kyle__ no
[11:24] <Nutubuntu> If the name is yellow, it's to attract your attn. it'll do that for anything that includes your nick in the message - like this one: kyle__
[11:24] <wdar> hello selfsearcher. it says something abaout partition tables. . but my xp is working fine on that partition and i want linux to format it and use it
[11:24] <[selfsearcher] > kyle__ i just said your name lol
[11:24] <ak213> tell me something, does debian have less trouble with hardware [video cards etc] ?
[11:25] <kyle__> oh, cool :P
[11:25] <icf7> ak213: Compared to?
[11:25] <kyle__> thanks
[11:25] <ak213> ubuntu
[11:25] <mikebot> Can someone help me with dual booting?
[11:25] <Virca3150> Hi! I am trapped inside a Busybox. How do I make my PC boot manually now... If anyone is willing to help, please query me. I am chatting with my mobile phone...
[11:25] <icf7> ak213: 1. you are in #ubuntu , so you may want to ask somewhere else. 2. no
[11:25] <wdar> thanks for your efforts selfsearcher .
[11:25] <ak213> ok icf7
[11:25] <Ominous> why cant i switch user, shutdown, or restart with xgl enabled and when i press switch user i get an error "You do not seem to be logged in on the console, \n Starting a new logoin only works correctly on the console"
[11:26] <wdar> good night . from myside to everyone.
[11:26] <sacater> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QADays
[11:26] <[selfsearcher] > wdar i never solved this error before. Please search for you brand/model then the error with this model. It's not easy bit sometimes it's a safe choice. The solution depends on the casuse
[11:26] <[selfsearcher] > lol cause
[11:26] <HOT> Virca3150: do you mean reboot?
[11:26] <capnfantasmo> what modules specifically am I looking for.
[11:26] <wdar> i will self searcher. thanks anyway
[11:26] <wdar> bye for now
[11:26] <Johto> Oh man i LOVE this Windows Vista Review http://youtube.com/watch?v=M0sy2i5FMcI :D
[11:27] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo in you have Feisty under System menu there is a Manager for the Proprietary drivers. Try to use it.
[11:27] <capnfantasmo> selfsearcher: the restriced driver manager?
[11:27] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo yes, it is :D
[11:27] <PanzerMKZ> anyone running 7.04 on a first gen compaq DL360?
[11:28] <capnfantasmo> selfsearcher: I did that. and it installed stuff. but I still can't get my resolution any higher when both the monitor and video card support it
[11:28] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo:
[11:28] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo so is the resolution your problem?
[11:28] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo: does your xorg.conf list the proper resolution?
[11:28] <flav_u> Good night
[11:28] <capnfantasmo> n3rrd: well said
[11:28] <kyle__> it says 'cp: cannot stat `/etc/x11/xorg.conf': No such file or directory'
[11:28] <capnfantasmo> selfsearcher: yes n3rrd: no
[11:28] <Nutubuntu> kyle__,  the "X" is capitalized
[11:29] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo: if not, look for the part that says "default depth" and then add your resolution to that depth
[11:29] <Nutubuntu> kyle__,  "X11" not "x11"
[11:29] <kyle__> oh :P
[11:29] <brunner> can truecrypt convert a FAT32 partition to an encrypted partition, or does it need free space in order to create an encrypted partition?
[11:29] <grybelfixx> !nvidia
[11:29] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:29] <ilikec0ws> Is it possible to do an ubuntu install where I choose what packages i want to install?
[11:30] <[selfsearcher] > capnfantasmo i found https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto Ubuntu Documentation btw
[11:30] <capnfantasmo> yeah I was using that. I kept getting errors with those commands
[11:30] <Virca3150> I am in busybox and want to mount /dev. How do I do that!
[11:30] <rolfen> k guys sorry but i gotta try once more: how do i replace metacity with beryl as default windows manager?
[11:30] <rolfen> the session thing didnt work
[11:30] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo, try to find the Default Depth line in xorg.conf
[11:30] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, metacity --replace?
[11:30] <Nutubuntu> ilikec0ws,  you can probably do that using the Alternative CD or Minimal CD - doing a server install, then (for example) kde-base or kde-core, then the specific pkgs you want. I haven't tried this myself but seems 'zif it'd work
[11:31] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo: and tell me which one it says?
[11:31] <capnfantasmo> 24
[11:31] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: in cli?
[11:31] <cypruser> How do I send a file to the trash can through the console?
[11:31] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo: look for the lines that say
[11:31] <zyxel> how to mount sidekick 2
[11:31] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, Or in a terminal
[11:32] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: thanks but i want to do the opposite
[11:32] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo: subsection "display" and "depth 24
[11:32] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, beryl --replace
[11:32] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: i'm running metacity and want to run beryl instead as default
[11:32] <capnfantasmo> n3rrd: found. and changed the resolutions. to 1280, 1024, 800
[11:32] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, I know i read it wrong sorry mate :)
[11:32] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo:  give that a shot... restart x and try to change the reso
[11:33] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: thanks il try to add that to the Session apps and see if it works
[11:33] <unitheory> rolfen, set beryl-manager to automatic startup in system > preferences > sessions
[11:33] <ilikec0ws> Nutubuntu, Thats the only reason why I have chose say gentoo and like arch over ubuntu, cause with them I  dont have to install an absolute load of stuff that im never going to even touch
[11:33] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, Ohhh in session you just add beryl-manager
[11:33] <capnfantasmo> here I goes
[11:34] <Nutubuntu> ilikec0ws,  well - you *don't* ... you just gotta know how :)
[11:34] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: I did that but it didnt work!
[11:34] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: weird...
[11:34] <[selfsearcher] > ilikec0ws in Gentoo, you can also install the binaries btw...
[11:34] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, strange, try alt+f2 then run beryl-manager ddoes that work?
[11:34] <n3rrd> capnfantasmo_: any luck?
[11:34] <ilikec0ws> [selfsearcher] , That kinda defeats the point of portage though? :P
[11:35] <capnfantasmo_> n3rrd: yep. it worked. kinda. it's only refreshing at 47
[11:35] <moxa> hi
[11:35] <brunner> ubuntu kicks ass! who ever thought I could be sitting on AIM and IRC while I'm installing my OS?
[11:35] <|rt|> anyone know if there's a utility like iostat to monitor io activity on logical volumes rather than the physical disks?
[11:35] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: i dont have alt-f2 (?) but if i run beryl-manager from the terminal it works
[11:35] <n3rrd> you might be able to add that to the refresh rates for the monitor too
[11:35] <Freezeil> A good few months back I tried to install Ubuntu on my new computer, but apperantly I couldn't do so because I had an ASUS P5B Deluxe motherboard. Anyone knows if that problem was fixed?
[11:35] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, Are you in gnome?
[11:35] <rolfen> ilikec0ws: yup
[11:35] <[selfsearcher] > ilikec0ws no because if the app is compiled for your architecture and optimized it's ok. Or you can compile it but there is a choice
[11:35] <capnfantasmo_> n3rrd alrighty
[11:35] <moxa> i have a new toshiba satellite l40 with intel sound. when i adjust volume, sound stops. anyone knows that behaviour
[11:35] <ilikec0ws> rolfen, alt+f2 doesnt work nice ^^
[11:35] <capnfantasmo_> thanks for all the help
