[07:33] <m1r> hello
[07:33] <unagi> this is getting really annoying..............why is it that i can run a script in terminal or just double clicking but sessions wont execute it?
[07:33] <lueho> tanath it says the readme file is executeble

[07:34] <tanath> lueho, what's the filename
[07:34] <Dr_willis> sessions ? what do you mean by sessions
[07:34] <unagi> system > pref > sessions
[07:34] <lueho> forget it... ill try configure -> make -> make install
[07:34] <lueho> brb
[07:34] <tanath> unagi, maybe it is, and you just can't see it
[07:34] <Dr_willis> cant say that ive ever used those.. be sure the paths are right in the script an dit starts with #!/bin/bash perhaps?
[07:35] <unagi> if it was executed maya would be open right now
[07:35] <tanath> unagi, why are you trying to run a script to run maya?
[07:35] <fuertesfj> hi
[07:35] <unagi> because i want it to load after i log in after restarting x after editing xorg
[07:35] <madh64> Hit3k, I have just installed ubuntu server 6.06.1 (LTS) on a via cv860a system. The install seemed to go fine, but when I boot the installed system it segfaults right after loading init.rd. Can anyone help?
[07:35] <fuertesfj> my name is jorge
[07:36] <tanath> unagi, i mean, why are you running _a script_ to run maya?
[07:36] <unagi> because i want it to load after i log in after restarting x after editing xorg
[07:36] <unagi> and i have to do that with a script
[07:36] <madh64> Hit3k, sorry that was meant for everyone but it autocompleted after i typed "hi"
[07:37] <tanath> unagi, you misunderstand. you've restated the purpose of my question, but you've not answered it
[07:37] <fuertesfj> I need help PLEASE!
[07:37] <unagi> ok what answer are you looking for
[07:37] <tanath> unagi, the answer to 'why?'

[07:38] <faileas> ot to mention, you didn't even say whats your problem
[07:38] <faileas> ...
[07:38] <twosouls82> =)
[07:38] <faileas> dcc exploit?
[07:39] <tanath> unagi, perhaps try this. edit the command in sessions to execute 'bash -c /path/to/script' then a terminal should pop up and run it, and you should at least be able to see any errors
[07:39] <fuertesfj> I have a resolution of 640x480 and I cant lower it
[07:39] <MinuteElectron> faileas: This time I really did select LAMP, and still no luck.
[07:39] <tanath> unagi, otherwise, it could be executing and quitting on an error without you knowing
[07:40] <faileas> :(
[07:40] <yaustar> fuertesfj: You want to lower a resolution from 640x480 to 320x240?
[07:40] <unagi> i dont understand what error there would be for starting up that isnt there when i manually execute it
[07:40] <unagi> brb
[07:40] <frojnd> hello there. Can someone gives me a list or a name for a linux game for two ?
[07:40] <twosouls82> frojnd: supertux, flobopuyo
[07:40] <MinuteElectron> Anyone here installed Ubuntu Server LAMP?
[07:40] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  I have
[07:40] <unagi> ok im confused.....what does bash -c do?
[07:41] <unagi> because now it worked
[07:41] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: Does it come with MySQL preinstalled?
[07:41] <fuertesfj> no
[07:41] <fuertesfj> I want to raise it
[07:41] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: Or did you have to apt-get
[07:41] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  what do you think the 'M' in 'LAMP' is?
[07:41] <tanath> unagi, runs bash, (basic shell). -c executes a command
[07:41] <astro76> unagi, do you have #!/bin/bash or #!/bin/sh in the script?
[07:41] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: I have it installed right now, but when I type mysql I just get a message about using apt-get.
[07:41] <unagi> yes
[07:41] <twosouls82> fuertesfj: have you installed the driver for your card and configured xorg.conf yet?
[07:41] <astro76> unagi, which one?
[07:42] <SkyTR> how can i remount to another location?
[07:42] <fuertesfj> I dont think so
[07:42] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  you selected the LAMP option?
[07:42] <nas> fuertesfj, ctrl+alt++
[07:42] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: Definitely, I even reinstalled to makr sure I did.
[07:42] <tanath> unagi, is your default shell bash, or some other?
[07:42] <twosouls82> hehehe nas
[07:42] <TheRF> I've got a problem with trying to install VIA graphics drivers.
[07:42] <tanath> unagi, some shells run things a little differently
[07:42] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  if you type mysql<TAB> in a shell, what comes up?
[07:42] <tanath> unagi, syntax & such
[07:42] <astro76> unagi, I bet you have it as #!/bin/sh, which uses dash, set it to #!/bin/bash and you can do it without bash -c
[07:43] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: nothing
[07:43] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  you must have done something wrong for the install, because when I did it, MySQL was there
[07:43] <astro76> tanath, ubuntu recently changed to dash as the default shell for sh, which sometimes causes issues
[07:43] <n30> where might i find the guide for setting up compiz on ubuntu??
[07:43] <yaustar> I have set up a mount of a second harddrive in fstab but it mounts it root rwx and owner/group rx where as I want it rwx to all, how do I fix this?
[07:43] <noah> i have 6 desktops on beryl, i cant get it back down to 4 my general options says that i have one desktop, any suggestions?
[07:43] <dWho> bulmer : what's a Address range <IP_ADDRESS> to <IP_ADDRESS> not on net <IP_ADDRESS>/<IP_ADDRESS> error?
[07:43] <twosouls82> fuertesfj: google how to install/enable the drivers for your video card, then how to configure xorg.conf
[07:43] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: darn
[07:43] <arooni> is there a songbird package for ubuntu?
[07:43] <madh64> TheRF, are you running on a mini itx board?
[07:44] <arooni> is there a songbird package for ubuntu?  if not... i downloaded the app as a zipped dir.... where should i be putting that dir?
[07:44] <TheRF> No, its an ASRock board, with Integrated Graphics.
[07:44] <tanath> astro76, yeh, and my default is zsh, but i don't think it's caused much in the way of probs for me yet
[07:44] <yaustar> arooni, check the readme
[07:44] <fuertesfj> is there any way i could have a privet chat with some one please I dont know how this works this is the first time here and Im completly lost
[07:44] <tanath> fuertesfj, you type: /msg username message
[07:45] <madh64> TheRF, i can't help, i can't get ubuntu to boot on my via mini itx board
[07:45] <gce> using lvm trying to create a 1TB volume group name vg0 but when using vgcreate -M2 -s 128M vg01 /dev/sda1   I get a volume group with VG Size 280.25GB. how to get vg size to be 1TB ?
[07:45] <astro76> tanath, your sh is still linked to dash, otherwise system startup scripts wouldn't work
[07:45] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  I dunno... it's been several months since I installed it, maybe I did have to install MySQL separately, but that doesn't seem right
[07:45] <tanath> fuertesfj, for some reason some places consider it rude to do it without asking first though
[07:45] <arooni> yaustar, sorry i wanted to add second part of questinos
[07:45] <tanath> astro76, hrm. i suppose so
[07:45] <nas> fuertesfj, ya dont msg people they will get pissed
[07:45] <astro76> tanath, ls -l /bin/sh
[07:45] <twosouls82> first ask if someone minds
[07:46] <tanath> astro76, yeh, already checked
[07:46] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: What I thought.
[07:46] <tanath> astro76, actually used file, but meh
[07:46] <TheRF> madh64 - you got the required files from VIAArena site?
[07:46] <Mr_Bomb> would anyone have a clue as to why my ubuntu freezes anytime I try and swtich users? I logout and then soon as the login window comes up my mouse if frozen in the center of the screen. But, I can still switch over to the console and use keyboard navigation
[07:46] <lueho> do you use ./configure to compile?
[07:46] <astro76> tanath, ah nice
[07:46] <tobi_> moin
[07:46] <DumberDrummer> so anyone have a guess as to why I can change resolutions with vesa, but not with nvidia?
[07:47] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  I believe you're not installing LAMP right.  That's my diagnosis of it
[07:47] <bulmer> dWho: i think the error is more toward that 72.x.x.x and not the 192.168.0.x range
[07:47] <Avielus> i installed Compiz, and now i can't use the shortcuts to switch workspaces (Ctrl-alt left, down, right, etc.) Why?
[07:47] <Jack_Sparrow> DumberDrummer: HOw did you install the nvidia drivers
[07:47] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: I will try again.
[07:47] <MinuteElectron> For the third time.
[07:47] <madh64> TheRF, I just installed ubuntu server 6.06.1 (LTS), and it won't boot past loading init.rd right after grub. I get a segfault. I think that's before the viaarena files would help?
[07:47] <lueho> !configure
[07:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about configure - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:47] <tanath> DumberDrummer, my guess would be that when you set it to nvidia, it uses neither nvidia, nor vesa
[07:47] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  if you gimme a bit, I can try installing it on a VM...
[07:48] <godsyn> help : CLI system converting from NT2k to ubuntu server... been running ubuntu for 1 year and realized that I had all the old crap from 2k on other partitions.. Easy way to fix? (all data on 2k was backed up)
[07:48] <DumberDrummer> Jack_Sparrow: used the restricted drivers manager
[07:48] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: Naa, dw.
[07:48] <yaustar> !chmod
[07:48] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[07:48] <tanath> Avielus, compiz requires gnome be set to one desktop, and you use virtual desktops within compiz to rotate the cube and such
[07:48] <bulmer> godsyn: you can read those files ?
[07:48] <DumberDrummer> tanath: and how would I check/correct this?
[07:49] <godsyn> bul : yes, ntfs.
[07:49] <TheRF> madh64, I see what you mean now as the files would only help get the better resolution etc...
[07:49] <Avielus> K, so all I have to do is set it to 1 desktop?
[07:49] <arooni> how can i add an etnry to the applicaitons menu... i installed soundbird... but there doesn't seem to be a package for it... so i have the app sitting in ~
[07:49] <bulmer> godsyn: what is there to fix?
[07:49] <yaustar> Does chmod work with folders?
[07:49] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  I'm d/ling the iso now
[07:49] <eTiger14> what is dmesg?
[07:49] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: kl, thanks
[07:49] <ectospasm> for some reason the Ubuntu mirror I chose is slow
[07:49] <TheRF> I'm using Ubuntu 7.04
[07:49] <godsyn> bulmer : i'd like to know of an easy way to format said partition, and use it to extend my linux partition.
[07:50] <ectospasm> may take 20min to download
[07:50] <shearn89> yaustar: yes, although what do you need to change?
[07:50] <ectospasm> godsyn:  did you install LVM
[07:50] <ectospasm> ?
[07:50] <shearn89> !dmesg | eTiger14
[07:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dmesg - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:50] <dWho> bulmer : i changed the config into this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/33485/ and im using dhcpd now not dhcpd3
[07:50] <lueho> okey peeps i gots some majour issues here. i use ./configre and it does not work i try make and make file does not work either
[07:50] <tanath> DumberDrummer, try right clicking on a panel, and add workspace switcher. make sure there's only 1. then use compiz config to make sure there's 4 virtual desktops for rotating the cube
[07:50] <bulmer> godsyn: yeah you can easily do that
[07:50] <yaustar> shearn: A folder and all folders/files below in the file heiracy
[07:50] <godsyn> remote@synserv:~$ lvm
[07:50] <godsyn> -bash: lvm: command not found
[07:50] <godsyn> i'm assuming aptitude?
[07:50] <shearn89> eTiger14: dmesg is a log that the system creates to do with hardware being plugged in etc...
[07:50] <shearn89> i think
[07:50] <DumberDrummer> tanath: wrong person, methinks
[07:50] <godsyn> crap srry for 3 line flood
[07:51] <bulmer> dWho: okay..try it

[07:53] <bulmer> dWho: routers is .1 and subnet is also .1?
[07:53] <asdf> Can anyone recommend a screencasting application that can record screencasts of Compiz Fusion?
[07:53] <lueho> shearn ok this one works :)
[07:53] <twosouls82> SkyTR: sudo mkdir /media/ipod
[07:53] <shearn89> lueho: nice...
[07:53] <DumberDrummer> lueho: gcc
[07:53] <SkyTR> ah ok
[07:53] <lueho> shearn what i do after this though?
[07:53] <SkyTR> ty
[07:53] <twosouls82> np
[07:54] <lueho> i have one conf.c file and one configure.in file
[07:54] <yaustar> shearn89: I typed: sudo chmod 777 * and it didn't work...
[07:54] <shearn89> lueho: i'm just looking for the command.
[07:54] <lueho> ok
[07:54] <bulmer> dWho: routers is .1 and subnet is also .1?
[07:54] <shearn89> yaustar: what happened? error?
[07:54] <dWho> bulmer : im not familiar with it so what should I do? i mean do you have any suggestion on what should I put there?
[07:54] <yaustar> shearn89: Bear in mind that the folder is actually a mounted drive from fstab
[07:54] <DumberDrummer> lueho: to compile is ./configure
[07:54] <yaustar> No error
[07:54] <DumberDrummer> lueho: then make and then sudo make install
[07:54] <lueho>  asdf ./configure file ?
[07:54] <niobos> I'm trying to recompile busybox with some different applets; but don't know how to do that; anyone with some experience?
[07:54] <SkyTR> is there a way i can make my ipod auto mount to that directory?
[07:55] <lueho> or ./conf.c ?
[07:55] <asdf> lueho: that would be fine
[07:55] <shearn89> yaustar: ahh... not sure how to do that.
[07:55] <SkyTR> it seems to want to go to anther mount
[07:55] <DumberDrummer> there should be a file called configure
[07:55] <yaustar> I have set up a mount of a second harddrive in fstab but it mounts it root rwx and owner/group rx where as I want it rwx to all, how do I fix this?
[07:55] <DumberDrummer> to run it, just do ./configure
[07:55] <lueho> i only have conf.c and configure.in
[07:55] <twosouls82> SkyTR: what do you mean?
[07:55] <DumberDrummer> hrm
[07:55] <SkyTR> when i plug it in
[07:55] <fuertesfj> Does anyone know how I cant set my resolution for Ubuntu because in the resolution setting I don't get a drop menu I only have one option of 640x480 and Id like to raise it to a higher option Im new in this so please if there's someone out there that could please have a privet chat with me Id be extremely greatfull   THANKS
[07:55] <SkyTR> it automatically mounts to /media/ipodname
[07:55] <twosouls82> SkyTR: when you plug it in it is hotplugged
[07:55] <bulmer> dWho: umm for the subnet <IP_ADDRESS> and option routers <IP_ADDRESS>;  <-- routers should be diff
[07:56] <twosouls82> SkyTR: is that a problem?
[07:56] <mh_le> iin wich directory does mysql have it's data?
[07:56] <niobos> fuertesfj: I'm no expert on Ubuntu, but it shoud be in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[07:56] <dWho> bulmer : should I use <IP_ADDRESS> for subnet ?
[07:56] <SkyTR> i need it to go to /media/ipod
[07:56] <SkyTR> not a big problem
[07:56] <twosouls82> SkyTR: if it is, you can use the udev device name and fstab to fix it (google)
[07:56] <SkyTR> ok
[07:56] <SkyTR> thanks
[07:56] <bulmer> dWho: yes
[07:57] <Jack_Sparrow> fuertesfj: Post your xorg.conf to the pastebin so we can see what hardware has been detected..  How did you install the video drivers?
[07:57] <twosouls82> SkyTR: or you can even make a symlink (ln -s /media/IPODNAME /media/ipod)
[07:57] <niobos> I need to recompile busybox with some extra applets; can anyone give me some guidance?
[07:57] <twosouls82> I would go for the first option I gave
[07:57] <genefitz> fuertesfj, you can gedit your xorg, there is also a command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg that should help you do it graphically
[07:57] <shearn89> lueho: if its still needed, i think "g++ -o <outputfilename> <C file> would work to compile it.
[07:57] <lueho> k
[07:57] <SkyTR> k
[07:58] <SkyTR> ill look into it
[07:58] <SkyTR> thx
[07:58] <dWho> bulmer : no more net errors but i have this "Starting DHCP server: dhcpd failed to start - check syslog for diagnostics."
[07:58] <fuertesfj> Jack_Sparrow- I dont know what Im doing I dont know what that is please give me steps
[07:58] <genefitz> fuertesfj see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto

[07:58] <bulmer> dWho: read that file then  /var/log/dh*
[07:58] <asdf> Can anyone recommend a screencasting application that can record screencasts of Compiz Fusion?
[07:59] <twosouls82> weston: easy: look for the upure64 repository
[07:59] <shearn89> asdf: check out "recordmydesktop".
[07:59] <niobos> asdf: I don't have the answer, but it won't be easy, since the complete Compiz image is only redered in the video card itself; so you need a way to get in back out...
[07:59] <shearn89> asdf: not sure its in the repos though...
[07:59] <twosouls82> weston: also automatix2 has some nice features for amd64
[07:59] <weston> twosouls82, where ould tht be located?

[08:03] <BCMM> Is installing MP3 support and all that easier in 7.04?
[08:03] <weston> k thanks
[08:03] <twosouls82> as the others thought it was too unsafe
[08:03] <shearn89> BCMM: about the same. I didn't notice a difference...
[08:03] <arooni> yaustar, ;p... i thought i could just sudo apt-get install
[08:03] <Jack_Sparrow> BCMM: It wasnt that hard in Dapper or edgy...
[08:04] <genefitz> BCMM, you can find the packages in Synaptics.
[08:04] <TheRF> MP3 support? I just installed VLC and it plays MP3s, if that's what you mean.
[08:04] <godsyn> help umount

[08:04] <godsyn> bah
[08:04] <effie_jayx> can you guys name a dock that does not use composite?????
[08:04] <yaustar> arooni: There is no official release of it

[08:05] <fyrestrtr> TooR4u: ~/.Trash
[08:05] <genefitz> BCMM, you can get the howto at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats
[08:05] <BCMM> genefitz: thanks
[08:05] <shearn89> TooR4U: unless you did "rm <file>" in terminal.
[08:05] <genefitz> No problem friend
[08:05] <BCMM> it's just the same for kubuntu. right?
[08:05] <genefitz> BCMM, should work the same..
[08:06] <dWho> bulmer : no more error but startin dhcp server failed :D
[08:06] <genefitz> <~~ KDE user too
[08:06] <TooR4u> fyrestrtr, loolll
[08:06] <TooR4u> I have shift+del that
[08:06] <arooni> yaustar, i already have it downloaded.. & just wanted to add it to the applicaitons menu... is there a way of doing that/
[08:06] <niobos> TooR4u: shift-del is the same as rm
[08:06] <bulmer> dWho: read that file then  /var/log/dh* or you can also start dhcpd with more verbose debug mode
[08:06] <fyrestrtr> TooR4u: now would be the time to get those backups.
[08:07] <yaustar> arooni, did you read the links given ? One has an install script, the other shows the google list on how to install it
[08:07] <niobos> TooR4u: or if you REALY have a LOT of time, you could start debugging the filesystem
[08:07] <fyrestrtr> niobos: that wouldn't get him anywhere.
[08:07] <TooR4u> niobos, how to recover the deleted data?
[08:07] <niobos> fyrestrtr: well.. he could find some recently-deleted inodes
[08:08] <stuart_> aw man i can't umount my flash card because it says an application is using it, but all applications are closed!
[08:08] <niobos> TooR4u: short answer: you don't
[08:08] <TooR4u> :p
[08:08] <nas> TooR4u, what filesystem?
[08:08] <niobos> TooR4u: long answer: the data is still on the disk, but you'll have to find out where
[08:08] <fyrestrtr> niobos: the man is in here asking how to undelete stuff, do you really think he knows about inodes?
[08:08] <BCMM> genefitz: ah right i think the single "Ubuntu restricted extras" package is what i  was thinking of
[08:08] <nas> if its ext3 your pretty much fscked
[08:08] <Jack_Sparrow> stuart-: DOnt remove it unless you power down or find what is using it..
[08:08] <niobos> fyrestrtr: no, I don't; hence the lot-of-time requirement
[08:08] <BCMM> 7.04 is hte release which finally supports Compiz on nVidia, right?
[08:09] <nas> ext2 you should be able to get it
[08:09] <stuart-> Jack_Sparrow, how do i find?
[08:09] <TooR4u> nas, FAT32
[08:09] <nas> oh
[08:09] <niobos> TooR4u: if it's FAT32, you could try some of the windows-tools
[08:09] <nas> should be some programs out there for that
[08:10] <Jack_Sparrow> stuart-: You can go through shutting down processes ... I just powered down when it happened to me...
[08:10] <effie_jayx> thanks shearn89
[08:10] <effie_jayx> :D
[08:10] <TooR4u> niobos, first how to mount the linux partitions in windows?
[08:10] <fuertesfj> Ok I am so new this that Ive got this Ubuntu thing yesterday and I have no Idea of Im doing or about to do I need help with the resolution setting I dont get a drop down menu on the resolution, could you please help me in a privet chat if ur not too busy thank you very much
[08:10] <niobos> TooR4u: you just said it was FAT32, so that should be no problem
[08:10] <TooR4u> niobos, u know how to mount the linux partitions in windows?
[08:11] <astro76> BCMM, depends how you define support... not really, it's in as a "technology preview", 7.10 will be the first release to support it by default
[08:11] <shearn89> effie_jayx: what distro are you using? if you want total non-composite and lightweight, try openbox, although its not totally newb-friendly. Actually, its scary as hell to start with!
[08:11] <shearn89> !resolution > shearn89
[08:11] <niobos> TooR4u: if it's FAT32 it should be mounted automatically to the next free drive-letter
[08:11] <TooR4u> niobos, good joke

[08:12] <genefitz> BCMM, the page I sent you should walk you through the install of the bad and ugly codecs. It should allow you to play MP3s and such
[08:12] <BCMM> genefitz: thanks
[08:12] <niobos> TooR4u: no joke
[08:12] <BCMM> i don't think there is anything non-free about playing mp3 in the UK
[08:12] <genefitz> BCMM, if not, you may try this page http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/#multimedia
[08:12] <TheRF> When you have a list of options which are numbered and it asks you to choose one, do you type in the number or the written option?
[08:12] <twosouls82> niobos: than you must be using wubbi
[08:12] <twosouls82> =)
[08:12] <genefitz> BCMM, the second page also has some really good tools.
[08:13] <BCMM> is there any reason i would want to install from DVD not CD, if i have a net connection?
[08:13] <BCMM> genefitz: thanks...
[08:13] <BCMM> at least this time i know not to use automatix or anything
[08:13] <genefitz> BCMM, if you have high speed, you shouldn't have to use anything but the live (netinstall) disk..
[08:13] <jrib> monsoco, blink0: please join me in #ubuntu-ops for a minute
[08:13] <TheRF> BCMM: in case the net doesn't work
[08:13] <genefitz> If you are on no internet or on a slow connection, having the DVD makes it nice..
[08:14] <BCMM> genefitz: thanks
[08:14] <niobos> Can anyone give me some guidance in a custom recompile of busybox? need to add some applets
[08:14] <genefitz> I keep both the netinstall and DVD for my distro..
[08:15] <BCMM> hmmm... there is both 32 and 64 bit...
[08:15] <Pelo> niobos, you might need to look for a busybox channel
[08:15] <genefitz> BCMM, what TheRF said was correct, many times people have issues with their ethernet after install. (becoming more rare with each distro) but it never hurts to have the DVD for that instance..
[08:15] <BCMM> does one lose a significant amount of performance if one installs the i386 version on an AMD64 system?
[08:15] <IndyGunFreak> BCMM: unless you're prepared to deal with a lot of hoop jumping, use i386
[08:15] <niobos> Pelo: well, busybox is no problem; it's how to do it 'the ubuntu way'
[08:15] <BCMM> genefitz: nvidia ethernet is widely supported right?
[08:15] <dWho> bulmer : dhcp ok
[08:15] <mcp_> Hello. I start another X-Server, but have troube running an Application there.
[08:16] <BCMM> IndyGunFreak: ah ok thanks
[08:16] <mcp_> X-Server reports   AUDIT: Sun Aug 12 20:08:01 2007: 6751 X: client 1 rejected from local host (uid 0)
[08:16] <genefitz> BCMM, it depends on your computer. I have a bit PC, but use 32 bit Linux because of some plugin issues..
[08:16] <BCMM> IndyGunFreak: that's what i do on my own Intel Core 2
[08:16] <genefitz> BCMM, Ubuntu is pretty good with most ethernet cards,
[08:16] <Pelo> niobos, in the forum maybe then , it's full of usefull stuff, among the crap
[08:16] <TheRF> Because I had problems with the ethernet until I done something and it started working.
[08:16] <TheRF> So I was lucky to have the DVD.
[08:16] <IndyGunFreak> BCMM: 64bit ubuntu just isn't quite ready yet IMO.. i've got a 64bit PC, but will be 32bit for the forseeable future.
[08:16] <Pelo>  mcp   sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start ? maybe
[08:16] <genefitz> iips, I have a 64 bit pc even
[08:16] <IndyGunFreak> web plugins are just to big a PITA
[08:17] <BCMM> genefitz: it needed a driving in XP,  but then again i find more stuff needs extra drivers in XP than in Linux these days
[08:17] <IndyGunFreak> BCMM: what kind of PC are you putting linux on?
[08:17] <TheRF> I just tried the written option, and it seems it has worked.
[08:17] <BCMM> IndyGunFreak: that's what i thought, but i had some vague idea that some 64bit cores execute 32bit slowly
[08:17] <niobos> Pelo: I found how to recompile-the-ubuntu-way; but I didn't find how to recompile-with-customization-the-ubuntu-way
[08:17] <BCMM> IndyGunFreak: amd athlon64
[08:17] <TheRF> Let's hope I can get the drivers to install.
[08:17] <genefitz> BCMM, in XP you may have needed drivers for it, however, when you think about it, Ubuntu has a new distro nearly every 8 months or so..
[08:17] <IndyGunFreak> BCMM: ok.
[08:17] <BCMM> IndyGunFreak: it's not mine so i don't know all the specs
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> ic
[08:18] <BCMM> IndyGunFreak: i use Gentoo on mine cause i'm a geek...
[08:18] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: Sorry to disapoint, but I fixed the problem.
[08:18] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[08:18] <genefitz> Beauty being that more devices are suppoerted each distro..
[08:18] <MinuteElectron> You had to type a command after you had installed Ubuntu - I found it in the docks.
[08:18] <genefitz> I have an nForce 430 board and have had no issues ethernet wise..
[08:18] <MinuteElectron> s/docks/docs
[08:18] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  how so?
[08:18] <Pelo> niobos, well you are half way there,  maybe you just need something on how to customize busybox ... ( you do realise I have know idea what I am talking about right ?)
[08:18] <BCMM> oh great, there is a mirror ~3 miles from here
[08:18] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  OK
[08:18] <genefitz> At least not with Ubuntu..
[08:19] <dWho> bulmer : where do i put my solutions?
[08:19] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP sudo tasksel install lamp-server
[08:19] <genefitz> BCMM, is this your first time using Ubuntu?
[08:19] <MinuteElectron> ectospasm: You must have used 6.xx
[08:19] <ectospasm> MinuteElectron:  I believe so
[08:19] <ectospasm> but it wasn't LTS
[08:19] <niobos> Pelo: I know how to customize busybox, but the recommended command (dpkg-buildpackage) ruins my config
[08:19] <BCMM> genefitz: no but i don't have too much experience with it
[08:19] <BCMM> genefitz: i know Gentoo though
[08:19] <BCMM> genefitz: and debian a bit
[08:19] <nas> i just installed ubuntu today
[08:19] <genefitz> BCMM, at first you may find a little frustration, but stick with it, when you get into it, it is hard to get out :-)
[08:19] <BCMM> genefitz: anything really likely to jump out and suprise me?
[08:19] <Grungebunny> nas hi5
[08:19] <Pelo> niobos,  can you use  dpkg-reconfigure ?
[08:20] <GCmdr_Wolv_Fetla> I just upgraded to 7.04, is the desktop cube thing still possible?
[08:20] <nas> i come from slack and debian
[08:20] <niobos> Pelo: don't know, I'll try
[08:20] <genefitz> BCMM, if you are a Debian user, this should be a walk in the park..
[08:20] <bulmer> dWho what?
[08:20] <BCMM> genefitz: heh, i'm not switching, i'm installing Ubuntu for someone else who isn't nerdy enough for Gentoo
[08:20] <IndyGunFreak> nas: then you probably won't have much trouble.
[08:20] <IndyGunFreak> ubuntu is dumbed down compared to those two.
[08:20] <nas> debian would not recognize both cores on my proc even after recompiling the kernel like 100 times
[08:21] <genefitz> BCMM, okay, just make sure you tell them to check out the Ubuntu forums and when to search for a solution mark "howto" before their issue.
[08:21] <nas> tried every single kernel debian offered none of them would recognize it
[08:21] <BCMM> nas: just get a Ubuntu .config, see what it says about smp, and compile with that?
[08:21] <nas> i installed ubuntu and like magic everything works
[08:21] <genefitz> They should be able to figure it out quickly..
[08:21] <Durmant> Hello all
[08:21] <niobos> Pelo: reconfigure could work, but the busybox package doesn't use it
[08:21] <nas> BCMM, ya i already got rid of debian
[08:22] <poweruser1> Hello n_n;;
[08:22] <nas> i tried a slack config with it though didnt work either
[08:22] <poweruser1> I'm a ubuntu noob.
[08:22] <poweruser1> and. my brother converted me. ._.
[08:22] <genefitz> BCMM, I am not actually a Ubuntu user, I am using Fedora. But I have Used ubuntu for a long time (I call it my gateway drug) ;-)
[08:22] <Pelo> niobos, was worth a shot,  did you try man dpkg see what other options might be avaliable taht might suit your purpose ?
[08:22] <TheRF> Looks like I'll have to read the forums a lot then! I'm a ubuntu noob as well! :)
[08:22] <i-hate-myself> hello all
[08:22] <niobos> Pelo: I did; but didn't find what I need
[08:22] <Pelo> poweruser1, welcome to the madhouse
[08:22] <twosouls82> goodie, packages.ubuntu.com got online again folks
[08:22] <BCMM> genefitz: hehe
[08:22] <poweruser1> I was wondering if you guys could help me find a program to run windows stuff?
[08:22] <i-hate-myself> whyy cant i request cds now? everytime the request is not being aproved
[08:23] <IndyGunFreak> i-hate-myself: why don't yuou just download them?
[08:23] <BCMM> genefitz: how is Fedora these days? I tried it before installing Gentoo, but it was pretty bad cause it was an early version.
[08:23] <Pelo> niobos, wouldn'T costomizing busybox after it has been installed the ubuntu way just replace the files that are needed and allow it to run customised-on-ubuntu ?
[08:23] <pearlbear> IndyGunFreak: some people don't have broadband
[08:23] <tommy15> Please go to www.mail35.de
[08:23] <Durmant> So ya.....im a first time linux user.....got Ubuntu installed on my laptop and it worked great.....went and enabled the the graphical extras, it told me to reboot....when I did now when It finishes booting I get a white screen of nothing :-/
[08:23] <i-hate-myself> lol.i have downloaded all versions
[08:23] <nas> poweruser1, wine
[08:23] <tommy15> Please go to www.mail35.de
[08:23] <IndyGunFreak> pearlbear: true.
[08:24] <i-hate-myself> but i wud like to get one cd wif the stickers :/
[08:24] <ectospasm> Ubuntu holds your hand a lot more than traditional distros...
[08:24] <TheRF> poweruser1 - As far as I understand, there is something called Wine which allows to some extent to run windows programs
[08:24] <Pelo> !wine | poweruser1 check your private message windows for a message from ubot3
[08:24] <ubotu> poweruser1 check your private message windows for a message from ubot3: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:24] <genefitz> BCMM, Fedora 7 is really nice now. With Yum and the standard RPM system, I use it because installing other programs is a breeze..
[08:24] <IndyGunFreak> i-hate-myself: so whats the problems with the ones you downloaded?
[08:24] <poweruser1> thank you <3
[08:24] <IndyGunFreak> lol, stickers?.. you're stressing yourself out over that
[08:24] <twosouls82> i-hate-myself: take a logo to the print shop ;)
[08:24] <niobos> Pelo: Well... no; since I need to tell the busybox installer to include an extra program that is not installed (or compiled) by default
[08:24] <tommy15> Please go to www.mail35.de
[08:24] <pearlbear> tommy15: why?
[08:24] <genefitz> I can do a install much like Debian (yum install) or just download the RPM, double click and let it go
[08:24] <niobos> Pelo: So I just need a way to make a .deb file of a custom package

[08:28] <Bowmessage> k
[08:28] <Bowmessage> thanks.. dind't know that existed
[08:28] <bulmer> usage of ipmasq?  is it a front end for iptables?
[08:28] <r0bby> whoa 394 bans.
[08:28] <Durmant> So how do I revert back to this Vesa driver
[08:28] <bulmer> Pelo fakeroot i thought..but I have not built a deb package yet
[08:29] <nas> Pelo, are you talking about compiling the kernel?
[08:29] <Pelo> nas no just a basic app
[08:29] <genefitz> Durmant, a couple ways you can do it, you can edit the xorg from command line, or you can do what I would usually do, sincew you apparently just set it up, re-start from scratch..
[08:29] <genefitz> Editing, you just use the Vesa driver.
[08:29] <Durmant> hmmmm
[08:29] <RatX> Vesa?  Old skool!
[08:29] <genefitz> In the end, you have to deal without the eye candy either way
[08:29] <ubuntu_> Hola
[08:29] <Durmant> thats no fun lol
[08:30] <ZAKhan> how do I install xgl for ATI card?
[08:30] <[Sky] Man> hi
[08:30] <Durmant> then I dont learn anything bescides not to enable to pretty graphic stuff :-p
[08:30] <nas> Durmant, how did you install the nvidia driver?
[08:30] <genefitz> Durmant, it isn't bad, takes me like 20 minutes to fresh install Ubuntu
[08:30] <KurtKraut> ZAKhan, there is a wiki for that... let me checl
[08:30] <Fubdub> hey, does anyone know why mplayer doesn't seem to be in my repositories?
[08:31] <Durmant> I just went to the system pref and the graphics(not what it says but closest I can think of) and enabled the extra stuff....it did the rest for me
[08:31] <genefitz> Durmant, Linux is much more than the 3-d desktop, it is the opensource programs that I get into.. Not to mention, not being a drive hog or any of that...lol
[08:31] <r0bby> Fubdub: it's in multiverse
[08:31] <Durmant> Right
[08:31] <nas> Durmant, ok here is what you do
[08:31] <genefitz> Not to mention, free as in free beer!
[08:31] <ZAKhan> KurtKraut, i installed ATI driver from ENVY and then compix .. it gives me an error "Fatal: Failed test: texture_from_pixmap support"
[08:31] <KurtKraut> ZAKhan, <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:31] <KurtKraut> ooops
[08:32] <r0bby> Fubdub: do you have that included in your sources.list?
[08:32] <nas> Durmant, go to www.nvidia.com and download the driver
[08:32] <KurtKraut> ZAKhan, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl
[08:32] <nas> Durmant, killall gdm
[08:32] <KurtKraut> ZAKhan, are you using Feisty ?
[08:32] <ZAKhan> KurtKraut, yes
[08:32] <fuertesfj> Hi my name is Jorge and Im having problems with my resolution due to the fact that in my resolution drop down menu I only have one option and its 640x480 I need help Im new in this I just got ubuntu yesterday
[08:32] <grndslm> Pelo:  checkinstall does it in place of make install
[08:32] <nas> ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic /usr/src/linux
[08:32] <nas> run the installer
[08:33] <Fubdub> r0bby, I have  deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[08:33] <Pelo> niobos,  read what grndslm just said,
[08:33] <twosouls82> fuertesfj: what video card?
[08:33] <fuertesfj> If any is not that busy and could give me a privet chat Id be a very greatfull camper
[08:33] <nas> tell it to compile the driver and run the config for you
[08:33] <nas> than run gdm
[08:33] <Pelo> thanks grndslm  that,s what I was looking for
[08:33] <Durmant> ok
[08:33] <nas> if all goes well it should work
[08:33] <fuertesfj> twosouls82: I have no Idea
[08:33] <niobos> Pelo: thx
[08:33] <twosouls82> fuertesfj: get on pm
[08:33] <Fubdub> r0bby, as far as I can tell that should work, it might be worth noting that I'm using the Sparc version, but as far as I can tell it should be there
[08:33] <niobos> Pelo: I'll try some make options
[08:33] <fuertesfj> twosouls82: whats that
[08:34] <KurtKraut> ZAKhan, do not use envy... if you use the default ATI driver, installed by the Restricted Drivers Manager Xgl will work with the instructions I gave you.
[08:34] <Pelo> niobos,  this is when you build from souce, instead of make install
[08:34] <Durmant> alright.....and second....point me to a good site to learn more about basic command and things of that nature
[08:34] <AndyGraybeal> i have a quick question, I have gotten used to the YAST program in openSuse for playing with hardware configurations.  is there something similiar for ubuntu, something that is graphical and i can configure hardware settings?
[08:34] <genefitz> Fuertesfj, try this command in terminal sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:34] <Durmant> If you have any in mind
[08:34] <twosouls82> fuertesfj: you're allowed to private message me, so we don't flood the room
[08:34] <genefitz> Fuertesfj, leave everything alone until you get to video card, monitor and resolution
[08:34] <grndslm> niobos:  if you're trying to create .deb package from source.... do ./configure && make && checkinstall (obviously after installing checkinstall from the repos)
[08:34] <poningru> AndyGraybeal: what hardware settings did you have in mind?
[08:35] <dayvid> JOIN ##java
[08:35] <ZAKhan> KurtKraut, do i have to install xgl in order for compiz to work?
[08:35] <niobos> grndslm: So that is basically what dpkg-buildpackage does, then?
[08:35] <Pelo> dayvid, why would we do that ? java sucks
[08:35] <grndslm> never used dpkg-buildpackage, so couldn't tell ya
[08:35] <AndyGraybeal> poncho1, well.. i've had problems with my video/monitor settings.. i realize that editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf should handle it.. but it's rough!
[08:35] <poningru> ZAKhan: no dude just go to system->desktop effects and turn it on
[08:35] <genefitz> I allways used the confugure, make, and make install commands..
[08:35] <poningru> that will install it automatically
[08:36] <genefitz> That may be a little too much for many thoug
[08:36] <nas> AndrewB, what problems?
[08:36] <KleRoi> hello, can anyone tell me what ports does Gaim uses?
[08:36] <poningru> KleRoi: depends on the service
[08:36] <Pelo> KleRoi, the ppl in #gaim probabaly can
[08:36] <neozen> which ever ones you configure
[08:36] <KleRoi> poningru: for msn
[08:36] <nas> this channel is so busy
[08:36] <poningru> KleRoi: hmm not sure
[08:36] <Durmant> yes
[08:36] <grndslm> poningru & genefitz:  the thing is if you automatically let make install do the work for you, dpkg loses those files and can't easily uninstall them for you
[08:36] <KleRoi> thanks for the chan Pelo
[08:36] <poningru> ask in #gaim
[08:36] <nas> i cant keep up with it all
[08:36] <KleRoi> yeah ill do that thanks
[08:36] <poningru> grndslm: what are you trying to do?

[08:42] <BCMM> yeah i use ntfs-3g on gentoo, just wanted to know if it's in ubuntu
[08:42] <lufis> fuertesfj: what graphics card, do you know?
[08:42] <bulmer> grndslm: you are confusing the init scripts and whats an installed applications  -- check-install or its equivalent is for putting scripts in the right places so it starts at boot
[08:42] <r0bby> BigToe7000: by the way, 14:37 _TODAY_
[08:42] <fuertesfj> I dont know how could I find out
[08:42] <genefitz> BCMM, to use ntfs-3g, you should be able to install it via the add/remove (note sometimes, it won't mount and says to boot windows twice) in tat case boot windows and run disk check.
[08:42] <nas> fuertesfj, you need to open /etc/X11/xorg.conf in your facorite text editor

[08:43] <[Sky] Man> ive been using ubuntu a couple of days now, is there any chance of breaking anything by downloading my own kernel sources and recompiling it from scratch?
[08:43] <Wolfwalker> |[Sky] Man:|  Yes, great chance
[08:44] <lufis> [Sky] Man: if you don't know what you're doing
[08:44] <nas> fuertesfj, if default depth says 24 than find the section that says depth 24 and add 1024x768" or something
[08:44] <v3ctor> [Sky] Man: just dont remove your old one
[08:44] <Afzal> ive done that...its already connecting to the lan..its the pptp thing thats not going well
[08:44] <Alloosh> quick question: quanta is not responding, how to end it?
[08:44] <grndslm> bulmer:  here:  http://freshmeat.net/projects/checkinstall/
[08:44] <Afzal> i m a newbie...ive stacked up a lot of things to try right now...think im gonna do that
[08:44] <[Sky] Man> lufis: i have used linux before, if thats why youre asking, just been out of the loop for a few years
[08:44] <Afzal> anyway thx for the help

[08:45] <nojoints> how do i locate broken packages?
[08:45] <BCMM> genefitz: the won't mount thing is if it was uncleanly unmounted though right?
[08:45] <Wolfwalker>  Problem: Smart Boot Manager won't recognize USB cdroms.

[08:45] <genefitz> BCMM, 9 out of 10, the disk needs to have disk check run..
[08:45] <Cypher659> live disk*
[08:45] <lufis> [Sky] Man: ah, well, use a deb to install it (you can generate one during compilation) so that it's easily removable, etc... it will automagically be added to grub where you can choose the old kernel if the new one malfunctions
[08:45] <[Sky] Man> lufis: yeah, cheers

[08:46] <genefitz> No problem Wolfwalker
[08:46] <[Sky] Man> i want to compile framebuffer console support into it, i cant handle the low res console ...
[08:46] <Pelo> Afzal, did you  try searching in the forum for an answer instead of posting a query ?
[08:46] <fuertesfj> nas: I dont know what Im doing I found the file but I dont know what to change or how to change it
[08:46] <lufis> [Sky] Man: is it a patch or a configuration option?
[08:47] <nojoints> I have 1 dependency needed to be upgraded and one needs to be installed, but it wont work
[08:47] <genefitz> BCMM, you can't mount a disk if the program sees an error, after you run checkdisk, you run configure NTFS and whould mount without problems..
[08:47] <nas> fuertesfj, gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:47] <genefitz> Linux can't fix NTFS disks, windows can
[08:47] <bulmer> [Sky] Man: you can also select which kernel to boot..selection can be had at the grub prompt during boot
[08:47] <[Sky] Man> lufis: config option

[08:47] <Alloosh> dont know how to kill it, where can I kill quanta because its not responding?
[08:47] <BCMM> genefitz: i know all this, i use it, i just needed to know if it's in ubuntu
[08:47] <BCMM> genefitz: thanks though
[08:47] <lufis> [Sky] Man: sounds good
[08:47] <d4rkmonkey> Alloosh, killall quanta ?
[08:48] <Cypher659> How do i make a custom live disk of ubuntu?
[08:48] <fuertesfj> nas: ok I got it how do I add it?
[08:48] <genefitz> BCMM, sorry, I get kinda know-it-all'ish at times...lol
[08:48] <nas> fuertesfj, so what resolutions are listed only the 680 one?
[08:48] <bulmer> Cypher659: you can google for remastering ubuntu .it has a good tutorial
[08:48] <nas> 640 or whatever
[08:48] <Alloosh> thanks d4r......, done it, and by the way, you really have a long name, lol
[08:48] <fuertesfj> nas: is it ok of we have a privet chat please so I could send you the file
[08:48] <LGM^_> any one knows how to decreat the time grub takes to boot on startup ?
[08:49] <n2diy_is_watchin> Cypher659: check out mondorescue.org
[08:49] <d4rkmonkey> Alloosh, not really, tab completion helps though, I never type more than 3 letters of someone's name, I just use tab to fill in the rest.
[08:49] <lufis> LGM^_: the option is in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:49] <Pelo> Cypher659,  try this  http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/index.php?option=com_frontpage&Itemid=1
[08:49] <TheRF> fuertesfj - its not that hard, I've managed to follow nas' explanation so far,
[08:49] <Alloosh> Ok d4rkmonkey: I didnt know that before, nice usage;)
[08:50] <Cypher659> ok
[08:50] <fuertesfj> TheRF: but Im new at this I have no Idea of what Im doing
[08:50] <lufis> LGM^_: it's near the top under "Timeout"
[08:50] <TheRF> I'm new as well as I installed Ubuntu yesterday. First time using Linux.
[08:50] <nas> fuertesfj, go ahead and send it to me
[08:50] <nojoints> how do i remove things that didn't work from /var/lib/dpkg/ ??? I've removed all compiz effects from the synaptic packages
[08:50] <TheRF> Anyway, nas will help you out :)
[08:50] <Pelo> TheRF, welcome to the madhouse
[08:51] <TheRF> Thanks Pelo!
[08:51] <[Sky] Man> anyway, i think ill leave upgrading the kernel for now
[08:51] <lufis> nojoints: what do you want to do exactly?
[08:51] <Pelo> nojoints, sudo rm file , or in gui   gksu nautilus /var/libs/dpkg
[08:51] <lufis> [Sky] Man: good luck
[08:51] <[Sky] Man> after getting into confiz-fusion i think im going to look into buying a faster box
[08:51] <[Sky] Man> hehe
[08:52] <LGM^_> ok looking for it
[08:52] <bulmer> usage of ipmasq?  is it a front end for iptables?  no other way to have NAT without iptables?
[08:52] <Pelo> [Sky] Man,  just get rid of the eye candy and your current box will last 5 more years
[08:52] <Wolfwalker> |[Sky] Man:|  That's probably best. Why not just catch the upgrade automatically.
[08:52] <Wolfwalker>  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[08:52] <nojoints> lufis; I had an error, I removed the installations but it's still there
[08:52] <nojoints> Pelo; Didn't help
[08:53] <[Sky] Man> Pelo: thats what i did 5 years ago ;) hehe
[08:53] <lufis> nojoints: what error? are you just trying to remove the compiz packages?
[08:53] <genefitz> [Sky] Man, Compiz and other eye-candy can be hypnotizing. It is nice, I can't use it because of my configuration, but I am more of a productivity user anyway...
[08:53] <[Sky] Man> Pelo: i think its time i deserved to give myself a little eye candy
[08:53] <Pelo> [Sky] Man,  I meant an extra 5 years

[08:54] <nojoints> lufis; yes becouse i was trying to install, didn't work, got an error, removed it but now when i try to install something else i get error message that it's unable to lock the administration directory /var/lib/dpkg
[08:54] <genefitz> lol Pelo
[08:54] <Pelo> nojoints,  which part is gving you problems ?
[08:54] <lufis> nojoints: ohh, you don't need to remove anything there! :P
[08:54] <lufis> nojoints: make sure synaptic isn't running
[08:54] <[Sky] Man> Pelo: ive been working in IT for .. pff about 10 years now, and since my first box, a pentium 200 with 32 meg o ram, a real beast it was, ive never bought a fast and shiny all singing all dancing pc, i always scraped and built meself stuff from leftovers
[08:54] <nojoints> lufis; aha then that's prob the problem then ill try
[08:54] <lufis> nojoints: :D
[08:55] <sacater> !wireless
[08:55] <[Sky] Man> whatever i get im sure ill squeeze every last thing out of it for the next 5 years
[08:55] <[Sky] Man> hehe
[08:55] <Pelo> [Sky] Man, ok then , you have my permission to treath yourself, just don'T go into debt for it
[08:55] <sacater> !wireless | sacater
[08:55] <lufis> nojoints: to modify  packages that directory has to be locked so different apps don't get conflicted... if one's using it, it won't let anything else use it
[08:55] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:55] <genefitz> [Sky] Man, sometimes, especially in the computer world, you gotta treat yourself.. Go ahead, go wild. :-)
[08:55] <genefitz> Linux will only love you more..
[08:55] <nojoints> lufis; it was the synaptic that was the problem
[08:56] <Wolfwalker>  Okay genefitz, that bootfloppy you referred me to only tried to boot DSL. It wouldn't even look for others.
[08:56] <Wolfwalker>  I'm trying to boot Ubuntu from an external CDrom
[08:56] <lufis> nojoints: yeah... although you could have removed the pkgs with synaptic
[08:56] <genefitz> Oh, Okay Wolfwalker, let me see if I can find a work around for you..
[08:56] <[Sky] Man> Pelo: no way, were getting married in 3 weeks, we have been skint for the last year. i think when we get back from honey moon were gonna start looking at what to spend gift money on
[08:56] <Pelo> lufis,   niobos  is doing some serious stuff building,  he needs to get rid of stuff that didn'T work well for him , he's not just messing with is system
[08:56] <[Sky] Man> although i do really fancy a wii , lol
[08:57] <lufis> Pelo: oh
[08:57] <RatX> apt-get install nintendo
[08:57] <genefitz> Wolfwalker did you try the command "Ubuntu fromcd" instead of "dsl fromcd"?
[08:57] <Wolfwalker>  What command? It just said to hit enter
[08:57] <niobos> lufis, Pelo : I'm a Gentoo-user, thinking about switching to (K)ubuntu, so I know what will ruin my system
[08:58] <[Sky] Man> as i said before i only just got back into *nix not long ago, ive really missed the eye candy
[08:58] <Wolfwalker>  All I did was hit enter when it said to hit enter. Where do you stop it and hit command?
[08:58] <niobos> lufis: I need to change the busybox-binary to include some extra programs; So I figured I need to recompile (I know how to do that)
[08:58] <[Sky] Man> but things have come along way since i last used linux
[08:58] <brylie> how do I use aptitude or apt to show the locations of installed packages/dependencies?
[08:58] <genefitz> Wolfwalker, let me see what I can find for you..
[08:58] <fuertesfj> could some one please me Im desperate I need help with screen resolution
[08:58] <Pelo> niobos,  ho you're using kubuntu,  I'm not sure what the comand is then,  try   kdesu with the name what ever the file manager is and the path to the folder
[08:58] <nojoints> I have dual view, but the wallpapers wont get on each screen, they're either in the between or stretched out and becomes quite ugly, any way to get it to use same wallpaper but it's not stretched out on both
[08:59] <niobos> lufis: The only this I don't know is how to package the new-custom-busybox into a nice ubuntu package
[08:59] <Mr-Snick> system>prefs>screen resolution
[08:59] <sacater> can i password protect files?
[08:59] <niobos> Pelo: Kubuntu or ubuntu doesn't matter much here (I think)
[08:59] <lufis> niobos: checkinstall?
[08:59] <fuertesfj> Mr-Snick: yea my drop menu only shows 640x480
[09:00] <niobos> sacater: yes and no: you can encrypt them
[09:00] <brylie> ubutu xorg.conf
[09:00] <Pelo> niobos,  it does,   ubuntu uses gnome with a different set of gui apps.  if you'Re doing command line only it doesnT matter, but if you want to use gui apps you need the right set of command for  kde
[09:00] <brylie> ubotu xorg.conf
[09:00] <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
[09:00] <sacater> niobos: and?
[09:00] <niobos> lufis: close; but busybox doesn't realy make a good install (since it will overwrite the system /bin/cat, ...)
[09:00] <Flannel> Pelo: kdesu is correct
[09:00] <jakemate> I can not make "sudo apt-get update". The command say: "404 not found". My sources.list is "deb http://es.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted"
[09:00] <brylie> ubotu xorg.conf > fuertesfj
[09:00] <Pelo> Flannel,  but what is the kde file manager called ?
[09:00] <niobos> sacater: the result is the same
[09:01] <lufis> niobos: hm, i actually don't even know what you're trying to do
[09:01] <niobos> sacater: "password protection" is usually an option in the application itself
[09:01] <Flannel> jakemate: that's because breezy archives are no longer around.  Breezy's support ended a few months ago.  You ought to upgrade to dapper.
[09:01] <Flannel> Pelo: konqueror
[09:01] <niobos> sacater: encryption works always, but requires a 2-step proces (save, encrypt and decrypt, open)
[09:01] <jakemate> Flannel: how can I make it?
[09:01] <Flannel> jakemate: on the plus side, you don't need to update, since the packages haven't changed in those few months.
[09:01] <Flannel> jakemate: make it what?
[09:01] <fuertesfj> brylie: ok but I dont know what to change wen i get there
[09:01] <jakemate> Flannel: upgrade to dapper...
[09:02] <Flannel> !upgrade | jakemate
[09:02] <ubotu> jakemate: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[09:02] <niobos> lufis: I'm trying to make my own initramfs, but I know how to do that (in Gentoo); I'm just new to making ubuntu-packages
[09:02] <Pelo> niobos,  so   kdesu konqueror /path  will open the folder as root so you can delete to your little heart's content
[09:02] <Flannel> jakemate: you want the 5.10 to 6.06 upgrade
[09:02] <jakemate> ubotu: thanks
[09:02] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[09:02] <lufis> niobos: you're barking up the wrong tree then :p
[09:02] <lufis> sorry
[09:02] <niobos> lufis: any pointers to the right tree?
[09:03] <inaety> when i try to play rmvb in mplayer i get this error "Error opening the selected video_out (-vo) device."
[09:03] <lufis> niobos: there are deb making tools besides checkinstall... is that what you're asking?
[09:03] <niobos> lufis: thanks anyway; I'll google a bit on checkinstall and see what turns up
[09:03] <brylie> fuertesfj, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto#head-c7979448ab81077f16349d3ca4be7aa5a5a52de2
[09:04] <Yahya> !changing the menu in XFCE mode
[09:04] <Flannel> !checkinstall | niobos
[09:04] <ubotu> niobos: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!

[09:29] <vocx> !botabuse > robbiet480
[09:29] <Falstius> Paddy_EIRE: uhm, I would run it, then right click the panel and click 'add panel' ... then log out.  Atleast one of them should come back :)

[09:30] <monsoco> does anyone know of a good (and free) home backup solution for ubuntu which is easy (click of a button easy) that also contain revision control features (like upcoming time machine)?
[09:30] <lufis> nojoints: get my pm?
[09:30] <bulmer> JBandP: okay..perhaps one port went bad and need a power reset
[09:30] <Kimbie> Ive just installed 7.04 off the live CD onto a seperate hdd however when it boots, it comes up with Missing Operating System I also have Vista installed on another drive
[09:30] <JBandP> im going to restart my router now. brb
[09:31] <nojoints> lufis; yes
[09:31] <Paddy_EIRE> Falstius: cool, when I did gnome-panel in a terminal it restored my previous panel! nice one
[09:31] <robbiet480> so
[09:31] <robbiet480> no one can help me with setting up a NAS under ubuntu
[09:31] <Amendt> lost X server  I tried "X- configure" and now X works , but how do I get Gnome desktop back?
[09:31] <Wolfwalker>  Right
[09:31] <Kimbie> can anyone help then?
[09:32] <vocx> Kimbie, that is a known problem not specific to Linux, it usually happens upon installing OSes. It usually means the BIOS can't detect properly the hard drives.
[09:32] <Wolfwalker>  Where can I find a grub img file to put on a floppy?
[09:32] <Pelo> robbiet480,  chck in the forum  www.ubuntuforums.org
[09:32] <robbiet480> kk thx
[09:32] <Pelo> Wolfwalker,  ask in #grub maybe the know
[09:32] <c01100011> I am looking for screenlets is there another repo or site to download a .deb, hendrick.kaju.pri.ee is down
[09:32] <Kimbie> ok, so what is the fix to it?
[09:33] <x600> Is GmailFS running on Ubuntu?
[09:33] <Pelo> c01100011,  try in  www.gnome-look.org  they have some
[09:33] <vocx> Kimbie, a quick solution would be unplug and reconnect the hard drives and checking the BIOS settings. Also resetting the BIOS may help. More info on this topic can be found on countless blogs and forums on the internet.
[09:33] <huhuhu> pls help
[09:33] <Paddy_EIRE> Falstius: excellent, pheeww Im back working again
[09:33] <Pelo> huhuhu,  we need to know he problem

[09:33] <Chewy-Fudge> Hola!

[09:34] <c01100011> Pelo, tried everything refers back to the screenlet site, was hoping someone had it mirrored
[09:34] <robbiet480> etiger14

[09:34] <robbiet480> and the correct command is
[09:34] <Paddy_EIRE> Pelo: while kde was installing in the terminal I was mucking about rotating the cube and I didnt realise that when I was pressing control it seems to be skipping items during the install with the word 'no' popping up under what the current activity was
[09:34] <Pelo> c01100011,  then the screenlets site seems to be all there i
[09:34] <robbiet480> mount /dev/sda /media/d

[09:36] <Pelo> later folks
[09:36] <Paddy_EIRE> Pelo: or will using Synaptic insure complete removal
[09:37] <lufis> KleRoi: sudo apt-get install gettext   :)
[09:37] <lufis> KleRoi: should do it
[09:37] <Grungebunny> Hello, im having trouble playing mp3s.. both with amarok and Rythembox.. now I had to reinstall Ubuntu and last time It gave me the option to download the patch to play mp3s now its not giving  me the option, its just crashing or doing nothing.
[09:37] <vocx> Pelo, Paddy_EIRE Using Control+ key usually sends signals to the shell, which may terminate or suspend running applications
[09:37] <KleRoi> oh ok lufis
[09:37] <Paddy_EIRE> vocx: oh dear
[09:37] <Woosta> Where can I get libapache2-mod-php4 for fiesty? It's not in any of the repositories that I can find on packages.ubuntu..
[09:37] <bulmer> JBandP: on a terminal..type this  ip a  and tel us what shows?
[09:38] <monsoco> does anyone know of a good (and free) home backup solution for ubuntu which is easy (click of a button easy) that also contain revision control features (like upcoming time machine)?
[09:38] <KleRoi> oh yeah it did work, thanks lufis
[09:38] <pedro> Grungebunny, Ithink you need some extra plug-ins in roder to play mp3
[09:38] <lufis> KleRoi: np, i had the same problem the other day
[09:38] <Grungebunny> pedro yeah.. but last time It gave me the option to download them.. now it is not giving me the option.. its crashing amarok instead.
[09:38] <KleRoi> erm, got another problem right now, now it says "You must have the GLib 2.0 development headers installed to build."  :|

[09:39] <train> hey guys
[09:39] <arooni> hey folks... dual monitor output on my nvidia 7950 graphics card was working *great* with nvidia-settings.... then i ran the system update.... and now its broken (max resolution i can get on second monitor is 600x400... it should be 1280x1024....).  ive already tried restarting... and reinstalling nvidia drivers... ideas?
[09:39] <JBandP> bulmer:Lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,1000>MTU 164636  and eth0:<BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,10000> etc etc
[09:39] <reverseblade> train, what's up
[09:40] <Paddy_EIRE> vocx: i did  sudo aptitude remove kde && sudo aptitude purge kde
[09:40] <bulmer> JBandP: well does it have an ip address?
[09:40] <zorze> ok, so i found some full hardware pci modems as well as some serial ones. I keep reading that i should get a serial type, but a much newer full hardware (i checked to make sure it was) pci modem costs the same. So I think I am going to go with to pci modem, any opinions?
[09:40] <pedro> People, I'm trying to put my old Philips PCVC720k/00 USB webcam working on Feisty
[09:40] <train> I plugged in a better monitor to my computer, but how do I make X11 reconfigure my monitor settings
[09:40] <MaDiNfO_> can somebody say why google earth runs frame by frame on my machine when glxgears display 1900FPS ?
[09:40] <MaDiNfO_> can somebody say why google earth runs frame by frame on my machine when glxgears display 1900FPS ??
[09:40] <Paddy_EIRE> vocx: so I should just reinstall kde again and not touch
[09:40] <pedro> so far, only Xawtv worked with the cam
[09:40] <JBandP> bulmer:my router says its' on <IP_ADDRESS>. but i see no such numbers in my terminal
[09:40] <train> the low refresh rate is killing my eye balls
[09:40] <reverseblade> train, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (or what ever the package is)
[09:41] <missingno> anyone know how I can disable dragging with a Synaptics touchpad without disabling tap to click? It's a simple option supported in the Windows driver, but apparently the linux driver devs didn't even think of it
[09:41] <bulmer> JBandP: or try ifconfig  this will also show your ip address
[09:41] <vocx> Paddy_EIRE, you could try, yes.   Just an advice "aptitude purge" already removes the program, so it is not necessary to do "aptitude remove"
[09:41] <savetheWorld> train, can you say "Java" ? :-)
[09:41] <Paddy_EIRE> vocx: I prefer gnome but trying a couple different window managers...also something I can show to potential converts
[09:41] <pedro> but with camorama and elkiga the webcam is detected but no clear image, just colors
[09:41] <reverseblade> missingno, it is douable but not easy I think
[09:41] <jr_> does linux have a chat client that will support webcams, that i can contact people using yahoo messenger with
[09:41] <MaDiNfO_> hello
[09:41] <Paddy_EIRE> vocx: haaa, will remember that one
[09:41] <train> 60 refresh rate with a white screen makes my eyes bleed
[09:41] <MaDiNfO_> somebody ?
[09:42] <lufis> MaDiNfO_: hi
[09:42] <reverseblade> jr_, Amsn, and kopete supports web cam for msn messenger
[09:42] <MaDiNfO_> :)
[09:42] <MaDiNfO_> hi
[09:42] <tanath> jr_, have you tried the official yahoo messenger? IIRC, they do have a linux version
[09:42] <train> 19 inches of flickering screen
[09:42] <reverseblade> train, true
[09:42] <jr_> tanath,  yeah looking now
[09:42] <lufis> train: what graphics card?
[09:42] <jr_> reverseblade,  i need yim
[09:42] <JBandP1> bulmer: my ip looks to be <IP_ADDRESS> under lo inet addr
[09:42] <train> just a default pos, but i'm sure it can do better than 60
[09:42] <bulmer> JBandP: your eth0 should have one
[09:42] <MaDiNfO_> lufis: saw my question ?
[09:42] <Paddy_EIRE> tanath: the linux version of yahoo messenger is awful and seriously out of date
[09:42] <tanath> oh
[09:42] <zorze> any input on full hardware pci modem vs. oldschool serial?
[09:42] <lufis> MaDiNfO_: no, sorry, one sec
[09:42] <missingno> Who maintains the actual driver? Is it part of X.org?
[09:43] <reverseblade> jr_, send a mail to yahoo
[09:43] <JBandP1> bulmer: i see no IP under eth0
[09:43] <bulmer> JBandP: got to System -->Administration ->Network and configure it from there
[09:43] <jr_> reverseblade,  need cam
[09:43] <train> I jsut need to know how to run the config program for X11 again
[09:43] <Paddy_EIRE> jr_: use GYachi
[09:43] <tanath> Paddy_EIRE, i don't use yahoo messenger anymore, so i don't know what works for it. pidgin might
[09:43] <pedro> quit
[09:43] <Grungebunny> thankyou it worked
[09:43] <jr_> Paddy_EIRE,  ok ill take a look at that one
[09:44] <R3dsh1ft> Has anyone ever gotten OTP login via SSH to work?
[09:44] <JBandP1> bulmer: configure it how? im in there now
[09:44] <MaDiNfO_> lufis: and ?
[09:44] <Traveler28> hiee guys
[09:44] <bulmer> JBandP: edit or activate..from the selection its obvious
[09:44] <lufis> MaDiNfO_: no idea :p
[09:44] <MaDiNfO_> :9
[09:45] <Traveler28> what the hell is this
[09:45] <MaDiNfO_> can somebody say why google earth runs frame by frame on my machine when glxgears display 1900FPS ??????????????
[09:45] <Traveler28> ?
[09:45] <Traveler28> using this for the first time
[09:45] <Traveler28> its great
[09:45] <Traveler28> nebody talk to me
[09:45] <Traveler28> hehe
[09:45] <JBandP1> bulmer:wired connection is active and has been since day one.  modem connection is not active (has nimus symbol)
[09:45] <R3dsh1ft> MaDiNfO_, because glxgears is a stupidly simple program?
[09:45] <Traveler28> im enjoin
[09:45] <MaDiNfO_> R3dsh1ft: rigth... and sulution to my problem ?
[09:45] <Traveler28> which program?
[09:45] <Traveler28> can u guys share wth me
[09:45] <R3dsh1ft> MaDiNfO_, Dunno if there is one. Sorry.
[09:45] <zorze> ok, i guess i am going to go with the full hardware pci modem
[09:46] <bulmer> JBandP: look at its properties..what is configured for it?
[09:46] <javaJake> Hello everyone
[09:46] <stiv2k> why does it say this every time i try to upgrade?
[09:46] <stiv2k> The following packages have been kept back: gnupg linux-image-server linux-server
[09:46] <R3dsh1ft> MaDiNfO_, just because glxgears runs at 1900FPS doesn't mean that your system will run everything else ungodly fast.
[09:46] <arooni> folks nvidia's twinview was working great... until i ran the system update and installed updates.... twinview still works, but my max resolution on the second monitor is 640x400 (should be 1280x1024).... i've already tried reinstalling the nvidia driver & restarting....... ideas?
[09:46] <JBandP1> bulmer DHCP
[09:46] <R3dsh1ft> stiv2k, aptitude dist-upgrade

[09:46] <train> without editing xorg.conf manually

[09:46] <rdavila> Hi friends, someboy can share the BDDEsigner4 app, because the download page don't work please?
[09:46] <reverseblade> train, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (or what ever the package is)
[09:46] <train> I missed let me search
[09:46] <train> oh thanks
[09:47] <javaJake> stiv2k, be careful - watch what it'll remove or change
[09:47] <Traveler28> what u fuckin guys doin ?
[09:47] <javaJake> stiv2k, saying dist-upgrade tells it it is alright to meddle with anything to get the upgrade to work, basically.
[09:47] <bulmer> JBandP: so switching it on the router port didnt make a difference?

[09:52] <Traveler28> actualy i was just checking this thing out .i had never used such kind of thing before i ve now embedded in ma blog so its gr8 .all guys continue.im jst readin thru wht u guys talkin ,wuld like to know some new stuffs
[09:52] <JBandP1> blmer: it's up! nsend_netpacket was "unreachable" but then it continued through and worked.
[09:52] <jos2> Is there a solution on Linux so that multiple users can edit the same office document at once?
[09:52] <jr_> lufis,  the latest versioin in fiesties repos
[09:52] <lufis> jr_: i dunno, look in the README or INSALL file for help on dependencies
[09:52] <hackerboy> lufis: sorry about that
[09:52] <lufis> INSTALL*
[09:53] <scorp123> Traveler28: it would help if you wrote in a proper language. Not all are native English speakers here.
[09:53] <JBandP1> bulmer: do you know how to get ubuntu to connect to the network upon reboot/power up? i want to take this thing off a monitor but i cna;t do it if it wont connect to the network on it's own.
[09:53] <Traveler28> me too not a native ..hehe...ok
[09:54] <javaJake> scorp123, he said he'll just lurk to learn new stuff.
[09:54] <Wolfwalker>  Right, I have grub running off a floppy
[09:54] <vocx> jos2, I believe that is more specialized. But who knows. Maybe you do need MS Office, or you need to search what extensions are available for Open Office.
[09:54] <Wolfwalker>  Now how do I tell it to boot from the USB cdrom?
[09:54] <Mookie> I installed a version of windows on a separate partition. What's the simplest way to have Ubuntu (grub) reclaim the MBR?
[09:54] <scorp123> javaJake: whatever. I didn't understand half of it anyway.
[09:54] <Kimbie> Ok just checked my drive boot order in bios but still get the error "Error Loading Operating System" on boot
[09:54] <javaJake> scorp123, :)
[09:54] <bulmer> JBandP: got to System -->Administration ->Networking and configure it from there
[09:55] <JBandP1> bulmer: i did not see a setting for connect on boot or anything.
[09:55] <Traveler28> thats great ...i must find some channel which is of my interest..bye guys enjoy your questions and answers
[09:55] <vocx> Kimbie, it is not exactly that what you need to change. But use something to autodetect the hard drives.
[09:55] <bulmer> JBandP: you may have to look at /etc/network/interfaces if auto eth0 is set
[09:55] <javaJake> scorp123, translation: I was just checking this channel out. I had never used this thing before (I've now embedded it in my blog so everything is fine). Everyone ignore me, I'm just reading what you guys say to learn new stuff.
[09:55] <habo> hey there guys
[09:55] <jr_> lufis, i fixed it i installed the older libgtk versions from the repos
[09:55] <|tbb|> reverseblade: is virtualbox better than vmware?
[09:55] <Wolfwalker> |Traveler28:|  Well what do you think an Ubuntu helpchat is for?
[09:55] <Wolfwalker>  :P
[09:55] <JBandP1> bulmer:is that a textfile?
[09:56] <javaJake> Traveler28, #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:56] <bulmer> JBandP: yep
[09:56] <jr_> lufis,  new error though. configure: error: Cannot find gdk-pixbuf: Is gdk-pixbuf-config in path?
[09:56] <scorp123> javaJake: honestly, I don't care :)
[09:56] <javaJake> Traveler28, they have some pretty interesting discussions sometimes
[09:56] <JBandP1> ok thanks.
[09:56] <javaJake> scorp123, ah, sorry then. :)
[09:56] <Traveler28> im not getting what you sayin
[09:56] <Wolfwalker>  I have grub running off a floppy. Now how do I tell it to boot from the USB cdrom?
[09:56] <Traveler28> saying*
[09:56] <jolly_> hey, any ideas for a cool advertisment for linux/unix in a mail signature? :P
[09:56] <Kimbie> before i put ubuntu on Vista booted fine with no problems, since intstalling 7.04 neither now work
[09:56] <Traveler28> sorry but didnt get
[09:56] <javaJake> Traveler28, #ubuntu-offtopic channel is basically a channel where you can talk about anything.
[09:56] <bulmer> Wolfwalker: your mobo bios has to support it
[09:56] <Mookie> Anyone know how to have grub reclaim the MBR after a windows install on a partition stole it? I used to be able to do this with LILO.
[09:56] <Traveler28> ohhkkk
[09:57] <Traveler28> got it now dude
[09:57] <javaJake> Traveler28, so if you just want to chat, #ubuntu-offtopic is for you
[09:57] <BigBob> hi all
[09:57] <Wolfwalker> |bulmer:|  then how do you boot from a usb cdrom for older computers?
[09:57] <Traveler28> so how should i get there
[09:57] <JBandP1> bulmer: eth0 is set to auto
[09:57] <BigBob> I'm trying to find why bluetooth services doesn't start automatically on my side ...
[09:57] <eboyjr> Why does gksudo make the program look so ugly? Why doesn't it use the gtktheme?
[09:57] <bulmer> Wolfwalker: lots of older puters dont support booting off of usb..you're out of luck
[09:57] <BigBob> Someone of you running Feisty can give me result of :
[09:57] <silver2> please excuse me. Check this site for Ubuntu badges:
[09:57] <jr_> bulmer, use eth1 for wifi
[09:57] <silver2> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MassachusettsTeam/Projects/AluminiumCaseBadges
[09:57] <Wolfwalker>  :/
[09:57] <BigBob> ls /etc/rc*.d/*|grep blu
[09:58] <lufis> jr_: do you know what dependencies it needs?
[09:58] <bulmer> JBandP1: make sure its defined before iface eth0
[09:58] <Wolfwalker>  I heard there was an img file you could put on a floppy and IT would boot from a USB cdrom
[09:58] <Wolfwalker>  But I can't find it
[09:58] <vocx> Kimbie, the problem you have is not Ubuntu specific. That problem would happen usually upon reinstalling Windows XP, so please don't assume is Linux fault. Please browse the web.
[09:58] <bulmer> jr_  huh?
[09:58] <scorp123> eboyjr: that can happen if you use a theme that is only installed locally in your home folder but not system-wide (e.g. "root" doesn't have it). So apps called via "gksudo" will fall-back to an ugly default.
[09:58] <jr_> lufis,  its done with config im on make
[09:58] <jr_> bulmer,  nvm lol
[09:59] <JBandP1> bulmer: i see iface eth0 inet dhcp then below it i see auto eth0.  should i put auto eth0 above?
[09:59] <manduski> hey can anyone try to SSH connect with me? port 1337
[09:59] <vocx> !grub | Mookie
[09:59] <ubotu> Mookie: 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
[09:59] <Kimbie> vocx, you suggest browseing the web, but browse the web for what?
[09:59] <eboyjr> scorp123, okat thanks, thats why it works on the Human theme.
[09:59] <bulmer> Wolfwalker: google for damn small linux tutorial..it may be there
[09:59] <Anthonydu68> linux powaaa
[09:59] <Anthonydu68> lol
[09:59] <scorp123> eboyjr: yes, because that one is system-wide and every account has access to it.
[09:59] <Anthonydu68> good night all
[09:59] <bulmer> JBandP1: yes put it above
[09:59] <Creteil> Someone of you running Feisty can give me result of : ls /etc/rc*.d/*|grep blu
[09:59] <theo_> Is it me or does everyone with a 64-bit system have problems installing applications?
[10:00] <scorp123> eboyjr: a workaround would be to install themes and stuff system-wide. They had a posting about that on the forums if I am not mistaken.
[10:00] <JBandP1> ok, done. im rebooting now to see what happens.  one odd thing is that i used to have a option in my taskbar that i would right click hthat said "wired".  now it's gone. do you know where to bring it back?
[10:00] <vocx> Kimbie, search for the exact error message you get on boot. It will point to pages with people that had the same problem and were able to solve it.
[10:01] <manduski> hey guys i'm trying to troubleshoot my SSH. Can anyone try and connect with me? Not login just connect to see if it works?
[10:01] <Kimbie> ok will look
[10:02] <jos2> I'll hit your ssh if you want
[10:02] <scorp123> manduski: you could get yourself an account e.g. on silenceisdefeat.org and troubleshoot it yourself.
[10:03] <JBandP1> bulmer: it still does not boot on it's own
[10:04] <bulmer> JBandP1: it should have...you can for now /etc/init.d/networking restart to start it
[10:04] <dMz> hola
[10:04] <radu> /server bucharest.ro.eu.undernet.org
[10:04] <Lunis> I had a crazy idea and I wondered if anyone ever heard of it... Are there tools to use your computer and a dial-up modem to answer phone calls with a bluetooth headset?
[10:05] <IRCFrEAK> hi I just tried installing on MacBook inside parallels... went through install fine, but doesn't boot... just gets stuck at loading kernel image or whatever. Do I need to do anything extra for macbooks (Ubuntu 6.06)
[10:05] <manduski> scorp123, how is the website and an account help me?
[10:05] <sohail> so whats the deal with http://hwdb.ubuntu.com/
[10:06] <sohail> apparently there are 550K submissions TODAY?
[10:06] <sohail> and only 750K submissions overall?
[10:06] <sohail> overflow?
[10:06] <sohail> wrap around?
[10:06] <nojoints> I'm getting a weird error when I do sudo apt-get upgrade, there flash which isn't fully installed or removed, don't know how to remove it, it tries to set up flashplugin-nonfree, when downloading it doesn't go anywhere and it stops at ok .....
[10:06] <vocx> sohail, overflow comes from you
[10:06] <Falstius> sohail: 7.5million overall, 550k today.
[10:06] <sohail> vocx, ?
[10:06] <vocx> !enter | sohail
[10:06] <ubotu> sohail: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:06] <IRCFrEAK> sorry it gets to 'OK, booting the kernel.' and sits there forever... what can I do?
[10:07] <sohail> vocx, lol ok
[10:07] <sohail> Falstius, ah. should say that on the page
[10:07] <astro76> manduski, seems your pingable now
[10:08] <sohail> Falstius, thats almost an unofficial count of ubuntu users isn't it
[10:08] <manduski> astro76, i contacted my ISP and we put the DSL modem on bridge mode
[10:08] <Falstius> sohail: er, nevermind.  I added a digit in my head. Tired.
[10:08] <Mookie> I have a dual boot system. Windows took control of the MBR from grub. What is easiest way to have grub reclaim the boot?
[10:08] <astro76> manduski, what port is ssh on now?
[10:08] <sohail> Falstius, lol
[10:08] <manduski> astro76, the tech people say they don't actually block any type of server line
[10:08] <manduski> astro76, 1337
[10:08] <arooni> folks nvidia's twinview was working great... until i ran the system update and installed updates.... twinview still works, but my max resolution on the second monitor is 640x400 (should be 1280x1024).... i've already tried reinstalling the nvidia driver & restarting....... ideas?
[10:09] <B3nne> join: irc.gimp.org
[10:09] <astro76> manduski, well now I get something... ssh: connect to host <IP_ADDRESS> port 1337: Connection refused
[10:09] <manduski> astro76, well at least we get something now!
[10:09] <manduski> lol
[10:10] <exs> I want to use DD to make an *ISO* from my HD partition. How do I do this? Thanks
[10:10] <ddazedd> what is the best program to monitor temps?
[10:10] <exs> ignore me, found out how
[10:10] <Mr_Bomb> astro76, got a quick question if you've got a sec
[10:10] <PriceChild> ddazedd, lm-sensors unless you have a thinkpad
[10:10] <nojoints> what is STUN server?
[10:10] <astro76> Mr_Bomb, shoot
[10:10] <sohail> exs how'd you do it?
[10:10] <exs> sohail: dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/tmp/image.iso bs=2k
[10:10] <ddazedd> PriceChild: thanks
[10:11] <manduski> astro76, what could be the problem now?
[10:11] <exs> if = input file, of = output file. bs=2k for faster speed.
[10:11] <vocx> !info genisoimage | exs sohail
[10:11] <sohail> exs I thought you said you want to make an iso of your hard drive
[10:11] <ubotu> exs sohail: genisoimage: Creates ISO-9660 CD-ROM filesystem images. In component main, is optional. Version 9:1.1.2-1 (feisty), package size 549 kB, installed size 1336 kB
[10:11] <manduski> astro76, SSHing shouldn't be this hard
[10:11] <sohail> looks like you're making an image of a cdrom
[10:11] <nojoints> amsn
[10:11] <exs> vocx:  yes, sorry, it was actually a cd image.. but i put HD because i thought someone might know it
[10:11] <sohail> !tell vocx I didn't ask
[10:12] <exs> vocx:  thanks
[10:12] <ddazedd> PriceChild: i seem to have the package installed already...but i cant run it in term?? what do i need to do
[10:12] <astro76> manduski, nmap still shows the same, I guess at this point try taking the router out again
[10:12] <Mr_Bomb> astro76, okay I've got my ubuntu fully working, I'v enow installed XP on another partition. But when I can no boot into ubuntu since XP uses the primary boot order or something. Is there an easy way to change the boot order or something?
[10:12] <Mr_Bomb> astro76, I've got GParted loaded right now
[10:12] <vocx> sohail, oh that was mean... Usually we send information to all people within a conversation so all can benefit
[10:12] <sohail> Mr_Bomb, boot loader

[10:12] <astro76> Mr_Bomb, follow that link :)
[10:13] <Mr_Bomb> ah excellent guys :) thanks
[10:13] <lorenz> hi guys! how can I delete a folder using the terminal?
[10:13] <Mr_Bomb> lorenz, rm -rf

[10:13] <sohail> vocx don't feel bad, I'm in a mean mood
[10:13] <scipio> Mr_Bomb: see this thread to reinstall grub so you can boot in both linux and windows: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351&highlight=recover+grub
[10:14] <Rabbitbunny> that's what rm -rf does? so rm -rf /root would...
[10:14] <ddazedd> PriceChild: thanks again :)
[10:14] <Rabbitbunny> That make soooo many jokes funny now.
[10:15] <vocx> Rabbitbunny, indeed
[10:15] <PriceChild> ddazedd, just don't do it on a thinkpad :)
[10:15] <scipio> |tbb|: the easiest way to do it is to start from scratch. you need several partitions: one for windows one for ubuntu and one for swap (size is your RAMx2). the install windows first and then ubuntu
[10:15] <manduski> astro76, the ISP tech guy told me i would have to reset the DSL modem because its pointless to be connected directly during bridge mode
[10:15] <arooni> folks nvidia's twinview was working great... until i ran the system update and installed updates.... twinview still works, but my max resolution on the second monitor is 640x400 (should be 1280x1024).... i've already tried reinstalling the nvidia driver & restarting....... ideas? (xorg config file: http://pastie.caboo.se/87026)
[10:16] <W8TAH> i would like to turn on the colors in vim - -i tried the syntax on method from various websites and that earns me a command not available message
[10:17] <W8TAH> what do i do
[10:17] <MasterShrek> arooni, do u have the nvidia-setting gui config?
[10:17] <|tbb|> scipio: i got ubuntu allready installed, any way to install windows after
[10:17] <vocx> arooni, I've seen you repeating the question. Sorry, I have no clue.  Maybe you need to remove the kernel modules that remain after the removing thing and then reinstalling.
[10:17] <astro76> manduski, I don't see the difference, either your router or your pc will be getting and ip via dhcp from the dsl modem, I think the bridge mode just passes the external IP through to the internal interface, otherwise the dsl modem is actually doing NAT on it's own like your router
[10:17] <arooni> master_of_master, sure do
[10:17] <arooni> master_of_master, but i can only set to a max of 600x400 on the secon dmonitor
[10:17] <MasterShrek> |tbb|, yes but you have to follow the guide for recovering ubuntu after an xp install
[10:17] <MasterShrek> MasterShrek*
[10:17] <scipio> |tbb|: yes if you already have a free partition. you will need to reinstall grub after that but it's fairly easy
[10:17] <arooni> vocx, how do i do that?
[10:18] <arooni> i'm a newb
[10:18] <|tbb|> thx
[10:18] <vocx> arooni, then you should not take my advice, he he... you'll end up worse.

[10:20] <obf213> what program do ppl use to send files via bluetooth?
[10:21] <|tbb|> one more question is it also possible to run a third os on one machine with one hdd, like windows / slax / ubuntu?

[10:21] <ubuntoid> p0rn

[10:21] <obf213> |tbb| yeah my friend runs the big 3
[10:21] <obf213> how do yous send files on bluetooth?
[10:22] <Flannel> obf213: using bluetooth tools, I imagine.

[10:25] <MasterShrek> |tbb|, ideally you would want to install ubuntu last, so that grub pick up on your other operating systems, but i believe that after the install of all 3 of them, you can recover grub and it should find them all
