[05:32] <eljbone> U know what
[05:32] <eljbone> I thought that it was going to be more simpler
[05:32] <maeth> i have a broken package, it says that i have to reinstall it but it wont and i try to remove it and it cant either...
[05:32] <MrMazda> In breezy I replaced an ISA sound card with a CS4281 PCI card. Now only root has sound. How can normal users have sound too?
[05:32] <eljbone> since i was installing on an external hard drive
[05:33] <cows> SirBob1701 lol that happened to me before
[05:33] <geeksauce> cows x isn't even running
[05:33] <cows> SirBob1701 until i got my laptop
[05:33] <dudaz> Felarin: yeah..they say my build-essentail is already latest version
[05:33] <SirBob1701> lol
[05:33] <Felarin> MrMazda : add them to the sound group
[05:33] <cows> geeksauce, it ctrl + alt + backspace will refresh your settings
[05:33] <Felarin> dudaz: you've installed build essential before?
[05:33] <Felarin> hang on a sec
[05:33] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: i guess this will be a good lesson, even fi youu're installing an OS to an external drive, backup before you start, crap happens
[05:33] <SirBob1701> cows: so do you know how to bridge a connection?
[05:33] <MacDrunk> hey need some help whit wine hq repository file
[05:33] <eljbone> sure i know that now
[05:33] <dudaz> btw, can i assume my linux-headers-386 for intel 32 bit pc
[05:33] <Rex> hello everyone...
[05:33] <MacDrunk> any ideas were to get the update
[05:33] <eljbone> but back to my problem
[05:33] <Hubris2> Felarin - is it possible that the adapter I bought doesn't support anything but WEP?
[05:33] <cows> SirBob1701, I only know how to do it for 2 routers
[05:34] <eljbone> a tool that would recover my data
[05:34] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: good lessons are rarely easy ones.
[05:34] <cows> SirBob1701, not for a direct connection
[05:34] <eljbone> anyone?
[05:34] <Felarin> Hubris2: yes it is possible
[05:34] <MacDrunk> i did a update but wont work?
[05:34] <SirBob1701> cows: ok
[05:34] <Rex> does anyone know if there is a program that is available like alcohol120? for burning dvds?
[05:34] <eljbone> a free tool to recover data from a hfs partition?
[05:34] <cows> hmm
[05:34] <geeksauce> cows same deal
[05:34] <cows> Rex, I think k3b does it?
[05:34] <eljbone> mister MacDrunk

[05:35] <eljbone> I was installing ubuntu on an external drive
[05:35] <Felarin> dudaz: type uname -a
[05:35] <cows> geeksauce, first lets reconfigure the xorg.conf
[05:35] <MacDrunk> ill do my best to help
[05:35] <Felarin> tell me the kernel version
[05:35] <MacDrunk> and
[05:35] <cows> geeksauce, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:35] <eljbone> and ...
[05:35] <eljbone> well
[05:35] <maeth> how can i force a re-download and reinstall a package??
[05:35] <geeksauce> COWS I'M THERE
[05:35] <Felarin> dudaz: yes 386 is correct btw.
[05:35] <geeksauce> oops
[05:35] <dudaz> Felarin : Linux hanifa-desktop 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[05:35] <MacDrunk> the installations failed
[05:35] <cows> geeksauce, it worked?
[05:35] <eljbone> i was doing the partition thing U know
[05:35] <geeksauce> dang caps lock gremlin
[05:35] <Aeos> Hi I am following this tutorial: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba
[05:35] <xenex> Why isn't the 'su' command accepting my password?
[05:35] <MacDrunk> so?
[05:36] <Felarin> okay
[05:36] <ticky> xenex: because there's no password for the root account
[05:36] <eljbone> and i partitiones my xternal drive right
[05:36] <geeksauce> cows i mean i'm in the configuration
[05:36] <ticky> you have to set it up manually
[05:36] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:36] <Felarin> dudaz: apt-get the command you told me, but exclude build essential
[05:36] <cows> geeksauce, in the dpkg-reconfigure?
[05:36] <xenex> ticky, how would I do that?
[05:36] <bullgard4> English help wanted: nstat -g prints 'group membership' or how is it called in an English man 8 netstat?
[05:36] <Montaro> xenex: sudo passwd root
[05:36] <MacDrunk> eljbone were u from?
[05:36] <Aeos> where it says: smbmount //myserver/myshare ~/mnt I assume myserver is the name of the local machine? or is it literally myserver
[05:36] <eljbone> and then i named my mac's hard drive type newworld
[05:36] <Montaro> xenex: or sudo su
[05:36] <mack75> xenex use sudo
[05:36] <Felarin> dudaz: btw, it compiles my kernel modules automatically, vmware i mean
[05:36] <Akuma_> whats a good backup tool? is there any that will also keep versions?
[05:36] <mack75> xenex: sudo su -
[05:36] <LucidFox> Qt4 application dialogs aren't centered - is this a bug?
[05:36] <IndyGunFreak> sudo r0X
[05:36] <Felarin> you're probably missing the devel packages
[05:36] <LucidFox> they appear in the top-left corner instead
[05:36] <xenex> Thanks.
[05:36] <geeksauce> cows, yes
[05:37] <Felarin> Akuma_:  Just use rsync and schedule a cronjob
[05:37] <eljbone> and now
[05:37] <cows> geeksauce, well follow the instructions, make sure you choose vesa driver
[05:37] <MacDrunk> then what happend after you name your hdd newworld?
[05:37] <dudaz> Felarin: so do i use linux-headers-386 or linux-headers-686
[05:37] <Felarin> use 686
[05:37] <eljbone> i didn;t name it ... i actually change the partition's type to newworld
[05:37] <dudaz> Felarin: thanks...
[05:37] <IndyGunFreak> dudaz: what are you doing?
[05:37] <Felarin> do they also have -devel packages?
[05:37] <MacDrunk> pleas mr eljbone write the hole idea on one line please
[05:38] <eljbone> so
[05:38] <Montaro> you'll probably find they are -dev packages not -devel
[05:38] <eljbone> how can I undo that
[05:38] <tritium> dudaz: unless you're doing something special, you want -generic
[05:38] <Felarin> he's installing linux headers
[05:38] <IndyGunFreak> !enter | eljbone
[05:38] <ubotu> eljbone: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[05:38] <maeth> it says that the package is bad or inconsistent, how can i fix this?!!!
[05:38] <mack75> Aeos: smbmount //[name or IP] /[share]  [mount point
[05:38] <Felarin> dudaz: he should have generic if he updated his system recently
[05:38] <Felarin> dudaz: did you?/
[05:38] <logmein> psemu-input-omnijoy package is broken
[05:38] <tritium> dudaz: i.e., don't use arch-specific
[05:38] <Aeos> mack75: is the name or IP of the windows client, or of the linux box that I am trying to install samba?
[05:38] <MacDrunk> so eljbone you saying you repartition a hdd you have win installed on it??? thats what your saying??
[05:39] <Montaro> Aeos: if that fails, Try mount -t smbfs -o username=Username,password=PaSsWoRd //serverorip/share /mount/point
[05:39] <geeksauce> cows my card is AGP...it is saying PCI:1:1
[05:39] <dudaz> Felarin: yeah..i update al the time
[05:39] <Felarin> dudaz: install generic
[05:39] <eljbone> i restarted my mac hoping for a succesfull linux installation and it didn;t happen and now i can not boot OSx
[05:39] <MacDrunk> seos what you trying to do?
[05:39] <Cows> geeksauce, dont worry about that , thats just the bus
[05:39] <mack75> Aeos: smbmount mount a share in other machine
[05:39] <Felarin> sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic
[05:39] <Aeos> ok thanks guys
[05:39] <mack75> Aeos: then it is the IP or the name
[05:40] <mack75> Aoes: of the windows machine
[05:40] <eljbone> i want to my my mac's hard drive as good as it was before i change the partition type to newworld
[05:41] <mack75> but, you can do this with nautilus
[05:41] <mack75> Aeos
[05:41] <dudaz> Felarin, tritium: i run ur command..got problem..man  Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[05:41] <Cows> geeksauce, meaning that PCI:1:1 is the location of the video card in the computer. not what type of card the gfx card is
[05:41] <maeth> k, i just said "sudo apt-get clean vmware-player" and then "sudo apt-get install vmware-player" , hope it works
[05:41] <mack75> Aeos: but, you can do this with nautilus
[05:41] <spasticteapot> I have multiple soundcards connected to my computer. How do I choose which one is used?
[05:41] <tritium> dudaz: do you have synaptic open?
[05:41] <hazrin> anyone can speak malay?
[05:41] <MacDrunk> eljbone do you saying you have  a mac and you try to install a ubuntu linux and you repartition your hdd so you can used and now you whant to redo all that???
[05:41] <dudaz> tritium: yeah
[05:41] <Felarin> tritium: pls close synaptic or update manager

[05:41] <KingNothing> is there something like ultramon for gnome?
[05:41] <mack75> Aeos: only type smb://[ip or name]  in the address bar
[05:41] <tritium> dudaz: you'll need to close it
[05:41] <Montaro> hazrin: this an is english channel only, sorry.
[05:41] <Felarin> i mean dudaz : pls close synaptic or update manager
[05:41] <Felarin> it's linked to apt-get
[05:41] <Felarin> you can only use one @ a time
[05:41] <hazrin> then i should speak english
[05:41] <Cows> Montaro, non !! je parle francais .. NO yo ablo espanol , WEE lol..
[05:41] <hazrin> i'm newbie in ubuntu
[05:41] <geeksauce> cows we're making progress... i got x started but resolution is 8 bit and gross looking
[05:41] <eljbone> well
[05:42] <Cows> geeksauce, easy to fix
[05:42] <dudaz> Felarin, tritum: they say it is latest version ...
[05:42] <Felarin> hmm...
[05:42] <mack75> Hazrin: Hi
[05:42] <hazrin> anyone can guide me, i had a problems
[05:42] <Felarin> then your system has the requisites
[05:42] <maeth> shit, it still fails!!!!!!!!!!
[05:42] <hazrin> with my hardware
[05:42] <Aeos> hmm it seems to be timing out
[05:42] <Felarin> can you paste me the exact error you got while trying to install vmware?
[05:42] <eljbone> when I changed the type of the hard drive I didn't format it
[05:42] <bruenig_> wow that is quite a few exclamation points
[05:42] <maeth> plz anybody help,
[05:42] <xenex> I added the Computer, Home, and Trash icons to my desktop through gconf-editor, now they cannot be removed. Any ideas?
[05:42] <Cows> geeksauce, just open up the xorg.conf, and scroll down to screens.. change the DefaultDepth to 24.. im pretty sure its like that
[05:42] <mack75> hazrin: What's the problem
[05:42] <Felarin> did you run vmware-config.pl
[05:42] <IndyGunFreak> bruenig_: lol
[05:42] <MacDrunk> eljbone first you  need to be sure you didt kill your macs partition, cause if thats the case you need to boot your mac whit a OSX cd or dvd so you can make a complete install
[05:42] <hazrin> radeon9000, exitgy(usb) and winfast pvr crad
[05:42] <Felarin> after installing the vmware package?/
[05:42] <bruenig_> I fear helping that number of exclamation points, you can't trust them
[05:42] <geeksauce> cows ok hang on
[05:42] <lekremyelsew> maeth whats the prob?
[05:42] <Cows> geeksauce, ok
[05:42] <dudaz> Felarin, tritium: seems like i had wasted mine as well ur time guys...sorry about that... still downloading the vmware
[05:42] <eljbone> the installation ocurred on an external drive not on the internal drive
[05:42] <logmein> eljbone: did you get the right copy of ubuntu?
[05:43] <eljbone> yes i did
[05:43] <eljbone> ubuntu for ppc
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: i think thats what he did.
[05:43] <maeth> lekremyelsew, k  , i used to work with vmwareplayer
[05:43] <logmein> eljbone: did it work from live cd?
[05:43] <Felarin> dudaz: i thought you had trouble installing it? you mean you're still downloading it?
[05:43] <eljbone> yes
[05:43] <eljbone> i;m here with the live cd
[05:43] <lekremyelsew> maeth and?
[05:43] <Cows> Felarin, lol
[05:43] <MacDrunk> eljbone please be more specific, what the heck you what to do??????
[05:43] <eljbone> i can not boot ubuntu nor osx
[05:43] <logmein> eljbone: then partition is wrong, can't you just run installer again?
[05:43] <IndyGunFreak> eljbone: allow me to translate for you.
[05:43] <maeth> lekremyelsew, and then it said that an update was on the webpage, i installed it, and now it doesnt run, then i tried to reinstall it
[05:43] <Cows> MacDrunk, that doesn't make sense
[05:43] <Felarin> Cows : dude said he tried to install it and it didn't work
[05:44] <Cows> Felarin, lol
[05:44] <Felarin> how can you install when you're still downloading it? you should get a broken pipe error
[05:44] <Cows> lol
[05:44] <dudaz> Felarin: no i am reading this book.. Ubuntu Hacks... they told me i had to install this prerequiste ... before i install vmware
[05:44] <Cows> i love ubuntu
[05:44] <MacDrunk> do you what to have your mac osx read your external drive as before the linux install???
[05:44] <maeth> lekremyelsew, via synaptic, and it failed and says that there is this brocken package
[05:44] <Felarin> no need
[05:44] <Felarin> you have all you need
[05:44] <Felarin> just install the packagr
[05:44] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: i *think* he tried to install Ubuntu onto an external drive, he renamed his mac drive newworld something, and now he can't boot either drive, so he's here on a live cd, pleading for wisdom, eljbone does that sum it up?
[05:44] <Felarin> and run vmware-config.pl,
[05:44] <Felarin> and run vmware-config.pl
[05:44] <lekremyelsew> maeth what os r u running?
[05:44] <eljbone> yes
[05:44] <eljbone> that's it
[05:44] <Cows> Felarin, you can tell him to find disk-utility in mac os x , then to reformat his hdd using 30 x reformat
[05:44] <maeth> lekremyelsew, that i have to reinstall it, when i try it fails , and when i try to remove it also... im using ubuntu 7.04

[05:47] <eljbone> ok
[05:47] <bruenig> Cows, I was on topic, you were not

[05:47] <penguin> halp?
[05:47] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: was just wondering what that statement was all about, thats all...lol
[05:47] <Cows> bruenig, dont worry about it , i had just finished helping ppl
[05:47] <maeth> lekremyelsew, yeah... A LOT!
[05:47] <MacDrunk> im trying to say that he need to read all the stuff on linux before messing whit liux thats all

[05:47] <Cows> bruenig, was just saying that i was using it for a short time, so anyone that wanted to learn can :)
[05:47] <geeksauce> cows, back.  now i'm on the linux box
[05:47] <Cows> geeksauce, cool, glad it works :)
[05:47] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: oh ok, i already told him that, ..lol,, when he first game in
[05:47] <maeth> lekremyelsew, but still its just the vmx file, i can back it up
[05:48] <lekremyelsew> penguin u got nvidia?
[05:48] <hazrin> anyone?
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> i'm trying to figure out why anyone would mess with installing another OS, and not do a complete backup, but thats just me. i'm catious like htat
[05:48] <Cows> geeksauce, well im going to bed.. good night
[05:48] <lekremyelsew> maeth back up all of it for now
[05:48] <hazrin> i tried almost 5 hours to install my vga card
[05:48] <MacDrunk> i been in and out of linux machines for some time now, also use some other releases of linux, like suse, and redhat, but like this one most
[05:48] <geeksauce> cows... it's my day off tomorrow, so i'm gonna hit the boxed wine and watch tv till i pass out :-D
[05:48] <penguin> lekremyelsew: radeon doesnt mean nvidea
[05:48] <geeksauce> cows, night man
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> MacDrunk: have you tried Fedora?.. its a good one
[05:49] <MacDrunk> no im not
[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> not as good as the *buntus, but good.
[05:49] <maeth> lekremyelsew, allready done :D
[05:49] <MrMazda> Felarin: that was a partial fix. I now have startup sound, but sound apps complain about missing plugins.
[05:49] <andrew____> Can Ubuntu support a school network?
[05:49] <Felarin> MrMazda : Which sound app? Just go in to the application and change the output plugin to alsa
[05:49] <andrew____> Beyond the thin client solution?
[05:49] <lekremyelsew> maeth: do you by chance have the ubuntu install cd?
[05:49] <logmein> andrew____: any network
[05:50] <Dr_willis> andrew____,  define what you mean by 'support' :) it can do samba/printing/other server tasks.
[05:50] <MacDrunk> well what i told you before was ages ago, i had and old pc and i now im runing ubuntu on a laptop
[05:50] <geeksauce> oh crap, it still isn't running at 1280x1024... what's the fix for that again?  i lost the link
[05:50] <ToddEDM> hey guys whats a good program to burn an iso image file?
[05:50] <andrew____> I want central administration of user accounts, files, etc. with client login.
[05:50] <maeth> lekremyelsew, yes i do,
[05:50] <MrMazda> Felarin: whatever tries to open mp3 & mpeg files from the home browser
[05:50] <Felarin> MrMazda : I've had the problem where even though some sound apps could detect the existing alsa, some couldnt, in which case, i simply recompiled the latest alsa on my system and recompiled the apps and it worked.
[05:50] <maeth> lekremyelsew, i have here the error :  /var/cache/apt/archives/vmware-player_1.0.2-2_i386.deb
[05:50] <maeth> E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[05:50] <andrew____> We want a mix of thin and non-thin clients.
[05:50] <Felarin> MrMaza : You need the w32 codecs package to open mpg files or wmv files.
[05:51] <logmein> geeksauce: scroll up and the fix was use your plain text editor on /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the resolutions listed there
[05:51] <MacDrunk> that used to have win xp on it, the only think i dont like the other realeses is that they dont use to have a prog like ubuntu synapes on those days so every installations were to be done in a terminal
[05:51] <Felarin> MrMazda
[05:51] <MrMazda> Felarin: I though I installed that over a year ago for the old sound card
[05:51] <Felarin> Can you open those files with root?
[05:51] <MacDrunk> no
[05:51] <geeksauce> logmein: isn't there a way to re-run to autoconfig script that runs when you initially install?
[05:51] <lekremyelsew> maeth when vmplayer boots up does what happens?
[05:51] <MacDrunk> you better not do that
[05:51] <Felarin> MrMazda: Just adjust the sound output plugin to alsa, if alsa dosen't work, try OSS
[05:51] <MrMazda> Felarin: can't try root X login now - kid's trying to use her puter
[05:51] <logmein> geeksauce: that sounds hard and I'm very lazy
[05:52] <dudaz> Felarin:  What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/build/include]
[05:52] <dudaz> At this stage. I press ENTER... then i get this man...Unable to build the vmmon module.
[05:52] <dudaz>  and execution is aborted... any ideas
[05:52] <MacDrunk> any ideas on how to update a wine HQ APT repository
[05:52] <Felarin> MrMazda: At this point, sound is enabled for your users, it's down to application level now.
[05:52] <andrew____> Dr_willis: any thoughts?
[05:52] <penguin> logmein: still not work.
[05:52] <Felarin> dudaz: The reason why it's unable to build is probably because of a bug
[05:52] <maeth> lekremyelsew, nothing, it doesnt start the aplication... it says starting .... and then it closes, but i dont even see a screen... nothing
[05:53] <Felarin> dudaz: try to get the patched vmmon and vmnet files from google and follow the instructions and then rebuild
[05:53] <lekremyelsew> maeth: ooh, i thought the image was corrupt
[05:53] <logmein> MacDrunk: wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - then do the command sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/feisty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list if you use feisty
[05:53] <Felarin> you only have to do it once
[05:53] <MacDrunk> i try to do it on system.. admin...software sources but i keep give me a error that the file is not found
[05:53] <Felarin> dudaz: if you dont want all the trouble, install virtualbox.
[05:53] <tritium> dudaz: why are you building from source, anyway?
[05:53] <lekremyelsew> maeth what was the update u got for, WinXP or vmplayer?
[05:53] <HymnToLife> dudaz, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=448110
[05:53] <HymnToLife> scroll down a bit
[05:54] <dudaz> Felarin: oh... and will it work if i us the older version....
[05:54] <Felarin> tritium : he's not, hes running the vmware installer, it autobuilds the modules for his running kernel
[05:54] <Felarin> Felarin : if your kernel is the older version, yes
[05:54] <andrew____> What's the best place to start if I want to have client files administered on a server. LDAP?
[05:54] <dudaz> tritium: yeah...i use the autobuilder..
[05:54] <Morris562> Hello I have a CD-less boot question. I've followed all the steps and managed to get the netboot working where it loads grub, then downloads the iso. My question is, I already have a copy of the iso on 3 different harddrives (I've got 4installed). Is there anyway I can rig it to install from there instead of having to wait for it to download (again)
[05:54] <Felarin> but since you updated recently, it should be the latest, i believe the bug is as of .15 kernel
[05:54] <tritium> dudaz: and you have linux-headers-$(uname -r) installed?
[05:54] <MacDrunk> logemin
[05:54] <HymnToLife> dudaz, post #7, especially
[05:54] <logmein> dudaz: the older version as in the "2.4"
[05:54] <MacDrunk> do i need to follow all the line including -0-
[05:54] <maeth> lekremyelsew, vmplayer
[05:54] <Felarin> tritium: yes he has the latest generic headers installed.
[05:55] <Felarin> it's a bug dude, i fixed it
[05:55] <logmein> MacDrunk: just shove those two commands in there word for word, it works
[05:55] <mevets> hey
[05:55] <Felarin> i had the same issue when reconfiguring vmware for the latest kernel
[05:55] <maeth> vmwareplayer, it was the ver 2.0, but i just wanted to have it working like before...
[05:55] <Felarin> you have to download 2 files and put them in specific locations to fix the issue
[05:55] <lekremyelsew> maeth have u tried re-installing it
[05:55] <_Ahti> i
[05:55] <judd> irc.freenode.net
[05:55] <penguin> i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024

[05:55] <MacDrunk> nope
[05:55] <sexauer> I just upgraded from edgy to fiesty (7.02) and now my touchpad does not work...everything was working fine b4 the upgrade....can anyone direct me to a fix?  I have a synaptics ps2 in my lappy
[05:55] <dudaz> HymnToLife : gimme a sec...i am waiting for the page to load... :)
[05:55] <mevets> is there a way to configure the Win key to launch the Applications menu?
[05:55] <MacDrunk> it wont
[05:56] <Morris562> *bump* Anyone have an idea for my boot situation?
[05:56] <MacDrunk> this one work wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg
[05:56] <Felarin> dont get me wrong
[05:56] <Felarin> older version does not mean 2.4
[05:56] <Felarin> previous release versions of 2.6 is fine
[05:56] <maeth> lekremyelsew, thats what i cant do ! :S
[05:56] <MacDrunk> but this one didnot -O- | sudo apt-key add
[05:56] <maeth> lekremyelsew, it gives me that error...
[05:56] <thmcmahon> anyone know any easy way to obfuscate an ip address?
[05:57] <Felarin> i need to look up obfuscate in the dictionary
[05:57] <mevets> thmcmahon: just proxy?
[05:57] <Felarin> lol
[05:57] <MacDrunk> logmein: do i need to fill in the full line or do a separate comman on the -0- ???
[05:57] <lekremyelsew> maeth: sudo apt-get update
[05:57] <dudaz> HymnToLife: shld i copy and paste the whole thing...or line by line

[05:58] <maeth> it tries to stop the ethernet vmware service and then it fails...
[05:59] <MacDrunk> logmein are u there?
[05:59] <_Ahti> If i wanted to run a liveCD in VMware... Sould i install the Server or the Client package???
[05:59] <ToddEDM> hey guys... i just got ubuntu working reasonably well, i was just wondering what the differences between Gnome and KDE are..... are they significant ???/
[05:59] <Dr_willis> _Ahti,  i always install vmware server for such things.
[05:59] <logmein> MacDrunk: yeah
[05:59] <MacDrunk> yes
[05:59] <MacDrunk> todd
[05:59] <_Ahti> ToddEDM: yes
[05:59] <MacDrunk> logmein it work
[05:59] <Felarin> Athi : just install the server
[05:59] <_Ahti> Dr_willis: Thanks :)
[05:59] <logmein> MacDrunk: yep there two commands
[05:59] <penguin> i have a radeon x1600, and it doesnt want to display 1280 x 1024. any one with halpz?
[05:59] <mevets> thmcmahon: just goto System > Preferences > Network Proxy
[06:00] <Dr_willis> ToddEDM,  you can easially have both on the same system, and just pick which one to use at the GDM login screen
[06:00] <MacDrunk> firt command give a public key block right???
[06:00] <mevets> get a proxy from sites like proxy4free.com
[06:00] <thmcmahon> mevets: ok hold on
[06:00] <tritium> mevets: or install tor
[06:00] <_Ahti> Now since i know that... Could anyone point me to a HowTo about running a liveCD under vmware?
[06:00] <ToddEDM> dr_willis....... ummmm explain
[06:00] <Felarin> ToddEDM : they are programmed using different languages and look different, but they pretty much are the same in functionality, there are also specific applications for each DM, aside from generic applications that can be used on both
[06:00] <ToddEDM> gdm login?
[06:01] <Felarin> ToddEDM: When it comes to the desktop managers, it's all a matter of preference.
[06:01] <MacDrunk> second command conects to wine right?
[06:01] <maeth> lekremyelsew, i sent you a PM with a more exact information about the error
[06:01] <mevets> thmcmahon: is the poker thing access through a web browser?
[06:01] <thmcmahon> mevets: yeah it is
[06:01] <ToddEDM> for a newbie gnome would be the best bet?
[06:02] <tritium> !best > ToddEDM (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:02] <thmcmahon> ToddEDM: for ne1 its the best bet :)
[06:02] <mevets> thmcmahon: you might want to just goto a site like http://sliprightby.com then
[06:02] <Jester> ToddEDM: not newbie, more disabled user
[06:02] <thmcmahon> mevets: ok i'lll have a look
[06:02] <Frozen_mango> I bought a super cheap low res BenQ optical Mice, at random times the pointer goes crazy and "teleports" all around for less then a second. Is that fixable?
[06:02] <tritium> Jester: ?
[06:02] <maeth> lekremyelsew, if i restart, the service will stop isnt?, then i should be able to reinstall it then...
[06:02] <dudaz> HymnToLife,Felarin, TItrium : thanks dude for the help... :)... it is finally installable
[06:02] <Jester> tritium: ?
[06:02] <ToddEDM> thanks Tritium
[06:02] <ToddEDM> lol jester
[06:02] <tritium> sure, ToddEDM
[06:02] <Felarin> dudaz: told you =P did the patch work?
[06:03] <tritium> Jester: disabled?
[06:03] <ToddEDM> so maybe i will try kubuntu for a bit
[06:03] <dudaz> Felarin : i was just following the commmands blindly, but it finally werked
[06:03] <Jester> what, gnome has good accessibility features for disabled users
[06:04] <Felarin> dudaz: yep, it's easy, just that 1 extra step
[06:04] <Felarin> virtualbox is even easier though
[06:04] <thmcmahon> mevets: when i  open the java applett in the browser it just goes blank with sliprightby.com
[06:04] <logmein> MacDrunk: you familiar with wine? there also a #winehq channel
[06:04] <Felarin> cause if i'm not wrong, the current version of vmware server, 1.0.3 is it not?
[06:04] <Felarin> that one dosen't support usb 2.0 devices
[06:04] <thmcmahon> mevets: do i just add one of the ip addresses into network proxys?
[06:04] <Felarin> but virtualbox does
[06:04] <tritium> !enter > Felarin (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:04] <Felarin> vmware workstation does too but it's not free
[06:04] <sexauer> Help plz: I just upgraded from edgy to fiesty (7.02) and now my touchpad does not work...everything was working fine b4 the upgrade....can anyone direct me to a fix?  I have a synaptics ps2 in my lappy... Usb mouse works though
[06:04] <Felarin> =.=
[06:04] <dudaz> Felarin: just wanna standardise with collegues..they install vmware in windows
[06:05] <mevets> thmcmahon: try other proxy sites, some work better than other, that site has others at the bottom of the page
[06:05] <lekremyelsew> maeth probably
[06:05] <logmein> sexauer: yep its called feisty install disc
[06:05] <Felarin> dudaz: yeah, you can use their vms too.
[06:05] <Mike562> Does anyone know how I can use the netboot method to boot the .ISO from another harddrive instead of having it download from the net?
[06:05] <Felarin> dudaz: or you can remote connect
[06:05] <sexauer> logmein: what do I need to do with the install disc?
[06:06] <logmein> sexauer: install it
[06:06] <novato_br> how can I request ubuntu cd free ?
[06:06] <__mike> no-one?
[06:06] <logmein> __mike: me
[06:06] <ToddEDM> shipit.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <dudaz> Felarin: i am actually gonna take their images an put in my comp...and try em
[06:06] <ToddEDM> i think thats the addy
[06:06] <sexauer> logmein: i dont understand...are you saying that I should go back to the older version?
[06:06] <novato_br> thx, ToddEDM
[06:06] <tritium> logmein: like chowmein, only with really thick noodles?
[06:06] <mevets> shipit.ubuntu.com
[06:06] <logmein> sexauer: no I said feisty install disc, use it
[06:06] <chowmeined> tritium: huh?
[06:06] <novato_br> thx
[06:07] <logmein> tritium: yeah um.. #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:07] <ToddEDM> i like to help out with an answer when i can, since i ask so many questions
[06:07] <__mike> logmein: Please share.. lol
[06:07] <SirBob1701> do you think if the prong of the i/o shield on a mobo goes into the network adapter and then you put in a wire it will fry the network adapter?
[06:07] <tritium> logmein: indeed
[06:07] <sexauer> logmein: I upgraded from edgy...dont have the install disc....and i've installed all updates....
[06:07] <dga> when i logout of gnome, i'm taken to a black screen and left with no other option than to hard shutdown. anyone know what's up with this?
[06:08] <defrysk> dga, you are using gdm or kdm ? as loginmanager ?
[06:08] <dga> defrysk: whatever comes default on ubuntu. i think gdm
[06:08] <tritium> dga: that would be gdm
[06:08] <logmein> sexauer: major system updates never work, you have to do manual method and go back using auto updater just to check for mistakes. its thoroughly trashed now so I suggest using feisty install disc
[06:08] <__mike> logmein: Thanks, i'm there.
[06:09] <sexauer> logmein: thanks....
[06:09] <dga> do you know what can cause that to happen? can i possibly rid myself of gdm altogether?
[06:09] <tritium> logmein: er, not really, no
[06:09] <defrysk> dga sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm and check if it works better
[06:09] <MacDrunk> logmin
[06:09] <tritium> sexauer: did you follow the upgrade procedures?
[06:10] <mevets> anyone know the path to the php5 binary? i checked /usr/bin
[06:10] <MacDrunk> logmein the pb key failes
[06:10] <sexauer> logmein: yes....everything went smoothly...only problem I have is the mouse...everything else is great
[06:11] <MacDrunk> well it display a erro
[06:11] <tritium> sexauer: you've inspected /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[06:12] <sexauer> tritium: looking at it, but nothing is sticking out...what shold I be looking for? error?
[06:12] <tritium> sexauer: yes, designated with (EE)
[06:12] <thmcmahon> mevets: what is a transparent proxy server?
[06:13] <dga> reinstalling gdm seemed to have worked
[06:13] <ashua> had anyone sound errors with 7.04? i have usb audio
[06:13] <gnychis> when trying to run nm-apoplet i get "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found" .. any ideas?
[06:13] <tritium> sexauer: you should not have to resort to reinstalling from scratch.
[06:13] <defrysk> dga, great :)
[06:13] <dga> defrysk: thanks
[06:13] <bruenig> gnychis, I would go with nm-applet
[06:13] <mevets> thmcmahon: dunno, sounds like it reports that its a proxy, doesnt hide the fact
[06:13] <dga> how can I get out of X completely? i know how to get to the console while X is running, but what if I'd just rather close X?
[06:13] <mevets> thmcmahon: probably wont make a difference
[06:13] <GSF1200S> it really sucks.. I love the ubuntu community and I love ubuntu as a distro, but I prefer KDE and Kubuntu is very buggy
[06:14] <sexauer> tritium: (EE) Synaptics Touchpad no synaptics touchpad detected and no repeater device, (EE) Synaptics Touchpad Unable to query/initialize Synaptics hardware.
[06:14] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: why do you say that?
[06:14] <bruenig> GSF1200S, you have others to pick from
[06:14] <MacDrunk> logmin
[06:14] <defrysk> dga, sudo init3 or sudo killall gdm
[06:14] <gnychis> bruenig: isn't that what i'm doing?
[06:14] <thmcmahon> mevets: ok cool
[06:14] <ashua> had anyone sound errors with 7.04? i have usb audio
[06:14] <MacDrunk> can to the command again
[06:14] <dga> defrysk: thanks :D
[06:14] <bruenig> gnychis, I thought you said nm-apoplet
[06:14] <Toma-> GSF1200S: try mepis?
[06:14] <gnychis> bruenig: typo
[06:14] <sexauer> tritium: (EE) PreInit failed for input device "Synaptics Touchpad"  thats all I found for the touchpad
[06:14] <tritium> sexauer: sounds like a missing module that should be loaded.
[06:14] <julius> how do i edit the kernel? is it the same process as with gentoo?
[06:14] <GSF1200S> im looking for fast, stable, and fast (again)
[06:15] <GSF1200S> but most other distros dont have a cool community
[06:15] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: Fast, use Xubuntu.
[06:15] <GSF1200S> thats big when trying to fix stuff and make things happen
[06:15] <sexauer> tritium:  I think you are right:   (II) UnloadModule: "synaptics"    what do I do about it....where can I find the missing module
[06:15] <julius> GFS1200S: Fluxbuntu
[06:15] <bullgard4> What is a 'raw socket' as in man netstat(8)?
[06:16] <IndyGunFreak> julius: flux is nice, but to me, its not as usable as flux.
[06:16] <GSF1200S> I dont care for XFCE YET... I think ill be looking at it in a year.
[06:16] <julius> well KDE is pretty zippy for me
[06:16] <GSF1200S> whats a really fast KDE distro
[06:16] <tritium> sexauer: see if it's found with "cat /proc/bus/input/devices
[06:16] <defrysk> GSF1200S, this it not a trivia channel, stay on topic
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: there really isn't one.. KDE is probably the "heaviest" o the GUIs
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> lol, a trivia channel
[06:17] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[06:17] <GSF1200S> sorry.. it wasnt a question designed to spark any wars.. lol.. Im just curious
[06:17] <silvertip257> IndyGunFreak =)  ||| I try to run:  chroot . /bin/sh -i  ;;;  I get:  /bin/sh: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /bin/sh)
[06:18] <sexauer> tritium: nope....not in there...
[06:18] <GSF1200S> and I agree with you IndyGunFreak.. although memory wise Gnome seems to use more for me, not that its bad
[06:19] <clearzen> how do I make a file world readable and usable?
[06:19] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: do you have build essentials installed?
[06:19] <IndyGunFreak> GSF1200S: well, my experience has been completely opposite of that
[06:20] <silvertip257> IndyGunFreak:: I'm not sure ... been a long time since I checked;;; how might I check ?
[06:20] <tritium> sexauer: check through this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[06:20] <tritium> IndyGunFreak: it's build-essential
[06:20] <IndyGunFreak> tritium: ok..
[06:20] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: open synaptic, and do a search for build-essential
[06:20] <_Ahti> How can i run a LiveCD on VMWare Server?
[06:20] <GSF1200S> Hmm.. must be a difference in setup.. Im still thinking about coming back to gnome.. KDE is nice, but its bugs get old.. ubuntu is a solid distro
[06:21] <silvertip257> though IndyGunFreak:  I think it has to deal w/ the dir I'm chrooting into; that doesn't have that file ... which puzzles me too
[06:21] <silvertip257> thanks Indy
[06:21] <sexauer> tritium: thanks man...i understand its a very common problem....just havent been able to find a common solution for the past hour or so
[06:21] <sexauer> i'll check the site
[06:21] <GSF1200S> Ahti.. mount the iso image under the CD/DVD section?
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: could be, truthfully, i'm not to good at compiling... I've learned, if its not in the repository, its not meant for me to have it..lol
[06:21] <IndyGunFreak> silvertip257: what are youu trying to install?
[06:21] <silvertip257> IndyGunFreak:  i'm making a busybox live cd
[06:21] <_Ahti> GSF1200S: Iso image? I've got the cd popped in
[06:22] <clearzen> will sudo chmod 644 <filename>  make the file world readable and usable?
[06:22] <IndyGunFreak> oh geez, thats way beyond me..lol
[06:22] <gnychis> how do you check which video driver xorg is using?
[06:22] <tritium> sexauer: please run "apt-cache policy xserver-xorg-input-synaptics" to make sure you have that installed
[06:22] <mage> !ask

[06:22] <ih70> Hi. Using Ubuntu 7.04 AMD64 here on an HP laptop. Works great, except when I return from hibernate I have no sound. Any idea how to go about finding out what is the problem and how to fix it?
[06:22] <GSF1200S> oh well crap Ahti.. is there a settings dialog for the .vdi your using?

[06:23] <GSF1200S> Ahti: ouch, and im using virtualbox

[06:24] <ih70> VMWare Server is also in Ubuntu 7.04, but in the "Commercial" repository
[06:24] <sexauer> np...sorry
[06:24] <linuxnu1> !virtualizers | _Ahti
[06:24] <ubotu> _Ahti: There are several solutions for running other operating systems (or their programs) inside Ubuntu, while using the native CPU as much as possible: !QEmu (with !KQemu or !qvm86), !VirtualBox, !VMWare, as well as !WINE and !Cedega for Windows applications
[06:24] <ih70> In the VMWare Server console you can add a new CD rom device (if you need to) and you can boot from it
[06:25] <_Ahti> ih70: i know i have VMware Server installed and all,
[06:25] <robert98374> hello everyone!
[06:25] <a12345> Thanks ubuntu - I can not see any reason why the dummy people prefer to use windows -- as i find ubuntu is much easier for the PC beginners
[06:25] <robert98374> where do i install nautilius scripts?
[06:26] <a12345> I would like to report a good side effect after I have been with ubuntu for nearly 3 months
[06:26] <kevinHWH>  /join #ubuntu
[06:26] <tritium> kevinHWH: you're already here :)
[06:27] <kevinHWH> FreeNode
[06:27] <a12345> There is no good MySQL tools inside ubuntu -- and because of this -- I build one -- and would like to promote my freebie here :D
[06:27] <cein> no good mysql tools?
[06:27] <tritium> a12345: which tools did you not find?
[06:28] <a12345> MySQL Sidu -- Free MySQL Client for ubuntu -- check out here : http://mysql.sidu.googlepages.com
[06:28] <sexauer> tritium: I installed qsynaptics and it tells me that I dont have the synaptics driver installed....
[06:28] <tritium> a12345: okay, please don't advertise here
[06:29] <a12345> And some windows guys warns me to change the title to MySQL client -- instead of "for ubuntu" -- well -- I tested, MySQL sidu also works for windows
[06:29] <a12345> OK! sorry - I m not adv here
[06:30] <aajvs99> anybody get Cstrike to run off retail via wine?
[06:30] <ih70> robert98374: You are probably asking about the ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts
[06:30] <bullgard4> netstat -g lists: "eth0            1      <IP_ADDRESS>" What is the IP address <IP_ADDRESS> used for?
[06:30] <gnychis> when trying to run nm-applet i get "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/esd: not found" .. any ideas?
[06:30] <robert98374> in70 thank you :-)
[06:30] <danix> alguien de habla espaola
[06:30] <tritium> !es > danix (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:30] <a12345> I checked SQLyog -- and feedback that SQLyog can also be run by wine -- i do not know how to use wine
[06:30] <ih70> bullgard4: I believe 224. addresses are supposed to be used for broadcast or multicast protocols
[06:30] <tritium> sexauer: please make sure you have the psmouse and evdev modules loaded (sudo modprobe psmouse evdev)
[06:31] <a12345> I would like ubuntu 7.10 to add MySQL Sidu to your source -- that's all
[06:31] <bullgard4> ih70: Do you believe that this is a general rule?
[06:31] <ih70> danix: You hablo un poquito
[06:31] <logmein> a12345: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html dpkg -i is command to install then follow instructions here: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb winecfg and regedit are commands you need to know
[06:31] <sexauer> tritium: ran that....nothing came back....
[06:31] <tritium> ih70: not here, please.
[06:32] <Assassin`> how do i make a text (server) executable ?
[06:32] <ih70> bullgard4: I am not sure. I believe I have seen it a lot in Windows being setup as a multicast network
[06:32] <logmein> a12345: try #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:32] <tritium> sexauer: make sure they're autoloaded at boot by placing them in /etc/modules (list them in that file)
[06:32] <a12345> logmein: i m totally a pc dummy -- and i do not know much computer -- as i can do nearly anything in ubuntu -- i do not buther to install wine
[06:32] <Assassin`> i thought it was chmod a+x ()
[06:32] <bullgard4> ih70: I will enquire about that. Thank you.
[06:32] <danix> gracias solo necesitaba un poco de ayuda en linea
[06:33] <logmein> a12345: --well --you --just --need --to --try --it
[06:33] <Assassin`> whats the executable command :(
[06:34] <a12345> cein: yes -- i m not adv my freebies here -- only because so many kind feedbacks about MySQL Sidu -- so that I would like to share with you guys -- as i can not find any mysql free tools inside your package manager -- that's all
[06:34] <sexauer> tritium: psmouse was in there...but not evdev, I added that after psmouse
[06:34] <tritium> a12345: there are many mysql tools.  You should check the universe and multiverse repositories
[06:34] <tritium> sexauer: try restarting X with those modules loaded now
[06:35] <gnychis> how can i disable beeps in the console?
[06:35] <sexauer> tritium:  i'll give it a shot....thanks for the help, i'll bbiaf
[06:35] <a12345> tritium : ?? well i tried and could not find any -- anyway - i have already made one :D
[06:35] <ih70> GSF1200S: Maybe it is an ACPI problem. I am looking for pointers on how to go about finding more and eventually figuring out what is the cause of the problem
[06:36] <tritium> gnychis: do you just care about the gnome terminal?  There is a simple preference you can set.  Otherwise, you can set an option in ~/.inputrc, or system-wide in /etc/inputrc
[06:36] <a12345> i installed wine once -- not sure what to do -- so i deleted it -- the good thing for wine is easy to delete - instead of un-install it -- hehe :D
[06:36] <Yanas> How do I set up Ubuntu to use all my mouse buttons?
[06:37] <cein> yanas -- what type of mouse?
[06:37] <Yanas> a4tech
[06:37] <cein> no idea
[06:37] <tritium> a12345: you'd really want to uninstall the package
[06:38] <amicrawler> hey guys my glx is slow
[06:38] <a12345> cein: how can close your tab ?
[06:38] <amicrawler> 1224 fps
[06:38] <cein> uh
[06:38] <a12345> tritium : what do you mean ?
[06:38] <amicrawler> hey guys my glx is slow
[06:38] <_Ahti> Muahahah! Now i can run my favorite security distros on my favorite distro :P
[06:38] <amicrawler> 1224 fps
[06:39] <tritium> a12345: if you install it, and want it removed, you uninstall it, rather than deleting sytsem files by hand
[06:39] <_Ahti> Thanks to VMware Server
[06:39] <amicrawler> is there a way i can speed it up
[06:39] <Yanas> Isn't there just a general way to use all of my mouse buttons?
[06:40] <tritium> Yanas: how many do you have?  Normally you need not do anything special.
[06:40] <a12345> tritium: thanks - i also think so -- but actually you can simply delete wine --- sorry i m talking about xbox ? i forgot what virture machine i installed last time -- sorry
[06:40] <Yanas> I have 5 buttons, and want to use the Forward and Back ones.
[06:40] <Yanas> The main three work. Wheel / First and Second.
[06:40] <tritium> a12345: ubuntu uses packages.  While you _can_ delete files, you really should uninstall packages.
[06:41] <a12345> but i think ubuntu still need to improve -- i have already seen many many better tools in ubuntu that i have not used in windows :)
[06:41] <Assassin`> what is the +exec command for ubuntu
[06:41] <tritium> Assassin`: chmod +x
[06:42] <a12345> tritium: yes i just up one important feed back for ubuntu -- i can not upgrade thunderbird from 1.5 to 2.0
[06:42] <tovella> Yanas: you may need to manually edit your xorg.conf file.  have a look at this site: http://adterrasperaspera.com/blog/2006/06/20/logitech-g5-review-under-linux/
[06:42] <a12345> why is that ?
[06:42] <Assassin`> no to execute
[06:42] <TheCougar> whats a good tv turner that works on ubuntu?
[06:42] <maeth> plz help, i have succefully reinstall vmware but now i have this error when i start the VM
[06:42] <maeth> Version mismatch with vmmon module: expecting 138.0, got 161.0.
[06:42] <maeth> You have an incorrect version of the `vmmon' kernel module.
[06:42] <maeth> Try reinstalling VMware Player.
[06:43] <sexauer> tritium: restarted x...still not working :(
[06:43] <a12345> tritium: why the update check is grey in thunderbird and firefox ? dummy like me even do not know how to install a software after download it
[06:43] <ih70> maeth: As it says you have one version of VMWare Player and a different version of the kernel module. Which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[06:44] <a12345> i m 100% rely on package
[06:44] <tritium> a12345: 1.5 is the latest version in the feisty repos
[06:44] <[H] Elipsn> does anyone know of a way to share desktop settings between users? Like, I want icon's on my desktop to be the same with root account, and user accounts.....can it be done?
[06:44] <[H] Elipsn> Where one affects the other
[06:44] <Dr_willis> programs updateing theirselfs is sort of not how things work under ubuntu. :) Ya use the package tools to update things.
[06:44] <Yanas> What is the command to edit a file in root user mode?
[06:44] <tritium> [H] Elipsn: perhaps sabayon?
[06:45] <ih70> [H] Elipsn: Probably can create symbolic links between the different account folder.
[06:45] <a12345> but thunderbird can be upgraded from 1.5 to 2 in windows -- i guess ? why you guys hard coded that thunderbird can not be upgraded in ubuntu ? do not joke if my question too stupid
[06:45] <[H] Elipsn> hmmm
[06:45] <tovella> Yanas: sudo
[06:45] <ih70> Yanas: sudo gedit FILENAME
[06:45] <DiaboluZ> Hi, got a problem with my new eggdrop - nevermind what tcl script i load (for public commands) the bot does not react to the commands - any ideas what might be a typical noob error here? :)
[06:45] <Dr_willis> a12345,  windows has it where every user can do admin tyope things.. linux/ubuntu aproacees it from the opposite direction.
[06:46] <tritium> TheCougar: see here: http://www.linuxtv.org/v4lwiki/index.php/Main_Page
[06:46] <Dr_willis> a12345,  a user Could install their own specific version. i guess.. then upgrade it. But not 'system wide'
[06:46] <crdlb> a12345, the idea is that your software gets upgraded when you upgrade to a new release of ubuntu
[06:46] <a12345> Dr_willis: but i can sudo -- still not able to upgrade in ubuntu
[06:47] <tritium> TheCougar: this is where I'd start: http://www.linuxtv.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
[06:47] <Dr_willis> a12345,  its BEST to use the package manager tools (adept , synaptic and so forth) and update things as they enter the updates/repositories
[06:47] <tritium> a12345: I told you - 1.5 is the latest version there is in the repos
[06:47] <Dr_willis> a12345,  using a programs own built in update feature (which is sort of rare under linux anyway) is not a good idea.
[06:47] <a12345> crdlb: i do not know how package manager works -- can you guy add TB2.0 into it, so that i can install TB 2
[06:47] <LucidFox> does Ubuntu accept free software written in Java?
[06:47] <crdlb> a12345, no, you're supposed to wait for gutsy
[06:48] <crdlb> that's the idea at least
[06:48] <LucidFox> oh, wait, that was a stupid question
[06:48] <a12345> crdlb: ok -- i can wait :)
[06:48] <tritium> !info mozilla-thunderbird gutsy
[06:48] <ubotu> mozilla-thunderbird: Transition package for mozilla-thunderbird rename. In component main, is optional. Version <IP_ADDRESS>~rc1-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 57 kB, installed size 104 kB
[06:48] <tritium> a12345: ^^
[06:48] <crdlb> a12345, that way packages are well tested against eachother
[06:49] <k1gwb> Thunderbird is being renamed?
[06:49] <baconbits> Hello
[06:49] <a12345> I also hope when ubuntu7.10 comes, i can play rm and rmvb
[06:49] <crdlb> a12345, actually
[06:49] <crdlb> a12345, there's a mozilla testing repository
[06:49] <crdlb> that shouldn't interfere with the packages that come with ubuntu
[06:50] <a12345> crdlb: i prefer to use ubuntu default software --
[06:50] <crdlb> !moztest
[06:50] <ubotu> The Mozilla-testing repos can be found at: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/PreviewArchives.

[06:50] <crdlb> a12345, then you'll have to wait :)
[06:50] <maria> Hello world
[06:50] <maria> My name es Maria
[06:51] <baconbits> Can someone possibly help a ubuntu newb?
[06:51] <a12345> crdlb: or i simply delete all my rm collections:D actually I never watch a second time :)
[06:51] <maria> Go to the chucha
[06:51] <tritium> a12345: you can play real media on ubuntu now
[06:51] <maria> bye
[06:51] <MegaTrousers> Hey Matt.
[06:51] <ih70> baconbits: Just ask your question
[06:51] <ross_stick> greetings wise one
[06:51] <baconbits> OK I don't know anything about linux, basically
[06:51] <a12345> tritium: i read many posts says realone not working well in ubuntu -- so i m scared to install
[06:51] <baconbits> A friend was helping me install ubuntu
[06:52] <baconbits> and I don't have any CDs (I'm on vacation) so he had me use wubi to install it
[06:52] <tritium> !real > a12345 (see the private message from ubotu)
[06:52] <baconbits> I rebooted and ran ubuntu and it went through the install and then had issues with my X server (Which is apparently GUI)
[06:53] <baconbits> Because I have an ATI graphics card, according to my friend
[06:53] <tritium> sexauer: hmm, what does log file show now?
[06:53] <baconbits> He said he knows how to get the proper drivers if I had a wired internet connection
[06:53] <baconbits> But I'm using my grandparents' neighbors' wifi so I don't have a wired connection
[06:53] <k1gwb> !enter | baconbits
[06:53] <ubotu> baconbits: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:54] <tritium> baconbits: ati drivers are supplied on the install CD.  You don't _need_ the proprietary ones for it to work
[06:54] <netdog> baconbits, which verion of ubuntu are you running?
[06:54] <sexauer> tritium: i'll check it, but when I run modprob neither module shows up still though
[06:54] <crdlb> baconbits, do you know what ati card it is?
[06:54] <baconbits> He said he had the same error
[06:54] <baconbits> It's an ATI Mobility radeon (Laptop card)
[06:54] <tritium> sexauer: lsmod | grep <module name> to see if it's loaded
[06:55] <crdlb> baconbits, ati has made many mobility radeons
[06:55] <letronje> hi CPU Frequency Scaling Monitor 2.18.0 gives no options to choose governors. cpufreq-info shows 5 governors .
[06:55] <a12345> tritium: thanks -- also i hope in 7.10 DVD can be played like window media player -- there is no title short cut in the ubuntu's ...? and i have to watch all 30 hours DVD at once -- square eyed
[06:55] <crdlb> baconbits, do you know the model number? something like X1600, or 9800
[06:56] <baconbits> I'm checking
[06:56] <sexauer> tritium: okay...they are loaded....checking logfile....
[06:56] <baconbits> X1400
[06:56] <DiaboluZ> no ideas on my public commands problem with eggdrop anyone?
[06:56] <damageDOne> Hey all.  It's not changing the whole window. Does anyone know why this would be happening?
[06:56] <crdlb> !xconfig | baconbits
[06:56] <ubotu> baconbits: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes
[06:56] <crdlb> baconbits, run that second command and choose the "vesa" driver
[06:57] <greg_> Hi, Whi I don't have xserver-xfree86
[06:57] <greg_> ???
[06:57] <tritium> greg_: because you have xserver-xorg now
[06:57] <furenku>  hello, im having a hard time installing supercollider, it asks for "X11/Intrinsic.h", i already installed libxt-dev and all available related packages, but still no luck, any ideas?
[06:57] <baconbits> Is it going to be completely obvious how to do that? I'm not too familiar with linux syntax or whatever
[06:57] <tritium> baconbits: yes, it's a dialog (like a wizard, but text-based)
[06:58] <renic> good evening (or whatever time it may be for you).  I installed ubuntu, and It won't let me su root from a terminal in X.  everything else seems to work fine.  Am i going to have to reboot in single user mode and change the root password?
[06:58] <baconbits> Ok thanks! I'll be back if I have any more issues!
[06:58] <tritium> !sudo | renic
[06:58] <ubotu> renic: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:58] <a12345> ok -- thanks - enough break
[06:58] <a12345> cheers
[06:58] <ih70> renic: Ubuntu uses sudo
[06:58] <greg_> All right tritium Have I to edit then  xserver-xorg to have 3D?
[06:58] <i-like-beans> Does anyone have any suggestions on how to monitor a xubuntu file server - like load, running processes, network monitoring, whos accessing samba share etc?
[06:58] <tritium> greg_: no
[06:59] <renic> .. ok :) but why would su not work?
[06:59] <ih70> renic: You can do "sudo su", provide your password and you get a "root" console
[06:59] <sexauer> tritium: same as before...it says it cant find the synaptics touchpad device
[06:59] <crdlb> greg_, what video card do you have?
[06:59] <k1gwb> i-like-beans: webmin.com
[06:59] <tritium> renic: because the root account is disabled
[06:59] <furenku>  hello, im having a hard time installing supercollider, it asks for "X11/Intrinsic.h", i already installed libxt-dev and all available related packages, but still no luck, any ideas?
[06:59] <crdlb> ih70, sudo -i is much better if you're going to do that
[06:59] <tritium> ih70: sudo -i would be more appropriate
[06:59] <penguin> what is the name of the program that automatically installs some not-supported software?
[06:59] <ih70> renic: As I said you need root privelge to run su, so you need to run "sudo su"
[06:59] <tritium> ih70: see above
[06:59] <greg_> I have Nvidia, And I have install now the glx crdlb
[07:00] <jc> if a noob were trying to install nvidia drivers for a geforce 6600 in Ubuntu, would Linux IA32 be the correct ones to download?
[07:00] <sexauer> tritium: it says a bunch of junk about /dev/wacom, not sure what thats all about
[07:00] <tritium> !nvidia > jc (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:00] <crdlb> greg_, did you use the restricted manager?
[07:00] <ih70> tritium: You are correct. "sudo -i" is a better choice
[07:00] <Nuked> sexauer, that was apparently put there by the dev team
[07:00] <sexauer> nuked: that any problem?
[07:00] <Nuked> greetings tritium may I pm you
[07:00] <Montaro> i-like-beans: smbstatus ?
[07:01] <greg_>  O_o I think I cant undertstand :(
[07:01] <tritium> greg_: you followed the instructions to install nVidia restricted drivers?
[07:01] <tritium> Nuked: okay
[07:01] <Nuked> sexauer, I recently asked about that problem on the kubuntu channel
[07:01] <crdlb> greg_, are you on ubuntu feisty?
[07:01] <sexauer> nuked: please tell me u got it fixed....pretty please
[07:01] <tritium> sexauer: that's included in the default xorg.conf
[07:01] <renic> ih90: isn't that a bit odd? su is for assuming root priveledge... If i was logged in as a super user I wouldn't need to run su... lol... anyways, not it is complaining that I must be in a terminal... as if i weren't...
[07:02] <greg_> All right, I ave install  restricted 2.6.20...
[07:02] <renic> went back to console and it worked ok.
[07:03] <ih70> renic: Does "sudo ls" work ?
[07:03] <tritium> renic: which did you do?  sudo -i?
[07:03] <renic> ih90: I switched to tty2 and ran "sudo su"
[07:03] <Madpilot> ih70, you shouldn't need sudo for ls anywhere
[07:03] <renic> just wouldn't work in an Xterm
[07:04] <tritium> renic: don't use sudo su.  Use sudo -i
[07:04] <crdlb> greg_, you used: system>administration>restricted manager?
[07:04] <renic> can I just put myself in the wheel group and run su directly? makes much more sense.
[07:04] <tritium> renic: ubuntu doesn't use the wheel group.  It uses the admin group to grant sudo priveleges.
[07:04] <Nuked> sexauer, that message is given to everyone who doesnt have a wacom tablet
[07:04] <Deep> j #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:04] <Nuked> sexauer it is not an error
[07:05] <greg_> crdlb: No, I go try
[07:05] <ih70> Madpilot: yes, but I habitually use "sudo ls" to force sudo to prompt me for my password, so it does not prompt me again. Anyway in the case he was asking I was trying to figure out if sudo work for him at all
[07:05] <TheCougar> any one get ubuntu to run in virtual PC?
[07:05] <Flannel> renic: Linux doesn't use a wheel group.  Although, the wheel/su thing works a lot like sudoers/sudo.
[07:05] <silverferrari> sup yall
[07:05] <tritium> TheCougar: did you see the URLs I sent you?
[07:06] <k1gwb> TheCougar:  yes i have run ubuntu in vmware and in virtualbox
[07:06] <ih70> TheCougar: Yes, I have at work
[07:06] <TheCougar> tritium: just looked back and saw them. thank you
[07:06] <tritium> no problem, just making sure
[07:06] <TheCougar> ih70: did you have any issues getting it started? whenever i boot up the screen goes nuts in the VPC
[07:06] <TheCougar> k1gwb: ah i'm asking about virtaul PC. i don't have vmware installed
[07:07] <Deep> Not even "cat /dev/urandom" gives gnugp enough random bytes. It's demandning.
[07:07] <Flannel> Deep: play with the mouse and keyboard
[07:07] <cdubya> !vnc
[07:07] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[07:07] <ih70> TheCougar: No issues. But if I recall correctly I am running a somewhat old version of Virtual PC
[07:07] <Flannel> Deep: and yes, it does also just take a while.
[07:07] <Nicholas> hi all, I was wondering what path my digital camera is
[07:07] <tritium> Nicholas: should be under /media/
[07:08] <cotyrothery> can someone tell me the command to make a new directory from the termanal
[07:08] <Deep> Flannel, well, it's on an servercomputer, not really much i can do with the mouse :D especially since im not really 3 feet away from it ^^

[07:08] <cotyrothery> thanks
[07:08] <DShepherd> Nicholas, /dev/video0 maybe/.
[07:08] <DShepherd> ?
[07:08] <TheCougar> ih70: ah i'm running the newest one which might be the issue
[07:08] <sexauer> tritium: synaptics_drv.so is being loaded at the begining of the log.....with no error....if that helps any
[07:08] <Flannel> Deep: Then you're going to just have to live with the network card (which just means waiting and doing other stuff)
[07:08] <tritium> sexauer: that's good.
[07:09] <incandenzian> How do I get the Terminal to display a list of processes as the CPU executes them?
[07:09] <sexauer> tritium: just keeps saying it cant find the hardware....weird since it worked in the previous version prior to upgrade...no probs
[07:09] <ih70> TheCougar: Well supposedly the latest one should have official support for Linux guests. Not sure which distros are officially supported though. I guess RedHat and maybe Suse
[07:09] <incandenzian> as in a constantly scrolling list of events, not a real-time summary of the various processes and their stats, but a running log of what the CPU is doing?
[07:09] <tripppy> after a reboot all my shared and mounted drives went from /media/hdd3, etc.... to /media/sdd3
[07:10] <Deep> Flannel, Yeah (8 ill just sit herem stream some music and wait. (:
[07:10] <tripppy> how can i fix this?
[07:10] <tritium> sexauer: hmm...
[07:10] <Deep> Wii (:
[07:10] <Nicholas> When i connect my digital camera ubuntu sees it and ask if i wish to save the pictures but it has trouble transfering the videos. I want to find the path to the SD in the camera to transfers the videos and pictures myself. The camera is not listed in the media folder though
[07:10] <tripppy> its done it 2wice
[07:10] <ih70> TheCougar:  Is this problem while you are booting the LiveCD? Did you try the "safe" option?
[07:10] <Madpilot> tripppy, all drives are SDx now as of the latest Linux kernel
[07:10] <greg_> crdlb: manager of  "acelerated grafics" of nvidia -> without use.  May I  be  click the buttom?
[07:10] <crdlb> greg_, yes
[07:10] <TheCougar> ih70: i'm going to try again right now so i will tell you :)
[07:10] <tripppy> Madpilot, hnx
[07:10] <TheCougar> i forget now i just remember i had issues
[07:10] <renic> flannel: thanks
[07:11] <ih70> Nicholas: You can type "mount" in a teminal and see if the folder is already mounted
[07:11] <tovella> tripppy: /media is where it's supposed to be.
[07:11] <crdlb> greg_, that will download, install, and set up the nvidia driver for you :)
[07:11] <cotyrothery> can someone help me with installing java enviroment for firefox
[07:11] <tripppy> tovella, yeah i know that Madpilot answerd my question
[07:12] <greg_> crdlb:  Well, it say that have to reboot. Im going to. Thanks.

[07:13] <maeth> when is the swap memory used??
[07:13] <renic> is there an ftp daemon built into ubuntu? (i already looked for /usr/libexec/ftpd, but alas - it's not bsd)
[07:13] <cotyrothery> can someone help me with installing java for firefox
[07:13] <tritium> renic: heck no.  You'd have to install one.
[07:13] <ih70> Nicholas: My guess is that it's the  /dev/sda1 device mounted at /media/disk. The last line
[07:14] <Nuked> sexauer, what exactly is the problem... do you actually have a wacom tablet and its still giving you the same error
[07:14] <Nuked> ?
[07:14] <ih70> maeth: Swap is used when the kernel decides it need more virtual memory.
[07:14] <Nuked> niekie, are you from scoundrels?
[07:15] <gnychis> after installing ubuntu for the first time, the generic kernel is installed, should i install a more specific kernel?
[07:15] <julius> Hey, I reinstalled linux on a fresh disk and i remebered last time i setup CS with wine i had to specify modelines or something to get it to select resolutions, what woul they have been?
[07:15] <niekie> Nuked: I sure am :D
[07:15] <crdlb> gnychis, no
[07:15] <caesar_> !fr
[07:15] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:15] <ih70> gnychis: What platform are you running? What is the output of "uname -a"
[07:15] <crdlb> !generic > gnychis (see the pm from ubotu)
[07:15] <sexauer> nuked: i upgraded from edgy to fiesty and my touchpad on my lappy stopped working...the touchpad is a synaptics ps/2, was working fine previous to the install
[07:15] <renic> crdlb: why not? custom kernels are nice.
[07:15] <niekie> Nuked: I can not be on Jabber at the moment though, got to be gone in a moment.
[07:15] <gnychis> ih70: Linux x60s 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:19:32 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[07:16] <sexauer> nuked: the usb mouse works great...but my built in touchpad no longer works....
[07:16] <renic> crdlb: dor ubuntu come with sources installed so you can compile and install new kernels with ease? or is it a pain?
[07:16] <renic> dor = does*
[07:16] <cdubya> is there a better vnc client than what comes in the repos?
[07:17] <ih70> gnychis: You could install a i686 kernel, as opposed to the "generic" i386, but you are not actually going to see any considerable performance difference. I personally would not bother.
[07:17] <crdlb> renic, I've never tried but I certainly wouldn't reccomend it unless you have a very good reason
[07:17] <gnychis> crdlb: thanks for the read
[07:17] <gnychis> ih70: got ya
[07:17] <kelvie> what's the gtk equivalent of amaroK?
[07:17] <crdlb> ih70, the generic kernel is 686

[07:18] <baconbits> I tried using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh and choosing vesa, but I rebooted after I had completed it all, and I was again presented with a message saying x server wasn't started. if it helps, the error says "No screens"
[07:18] <renic> crdlb: removing compatibility for processors you don't have installed in a system seem to speed things up substantially in other *nix operating systems.
[07:18] <sexauer> nuked: pastebin?
[07:18] <Nuked> !pastebin
[07:18] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:19] <renic> i.e. cpu=386 cpu=486 cpu=596 cpu 686

[07:19] <TheCougar> ih70: ah it booted this time but i can't control it. the mouse won't intergrate into it when i click on it
[07:19] <adrian> como soi nuevo queria saber como se configura mi scaner
[07:19] <renic> (for hosting and such)
[07:19] <TheCougar> and i have no idea what the keyboard commands are in the GUI
[07:19] <sexauer> nuked: gotcha.....thnx

[07:19] <pike_> i want a gigabit wireless network..
[07:19] <xenex> How do you edit .so files?
[07:20] <renic> !generic
[07:20] <ubotu> Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[07:20] <pike_> xenex: very carefully
[07:20] <Nuked> adrian que es su modelo de scanner?
[07:20] <greg_> adrian: sabes si te lo detecta?
[07:20] <ih70> TheCougar: Try Alt-F1 for the Menu launcher and Alt-F2 for "run". You can then type "gnome-terminal" to get a terminal
[07:20] <idefixx> xenex: you dont they are binaries
[07:20] <pike_> xenex: thats a lib a binary file most likely
[07:20] <crdlb> xenex, edit?
[07:20] <xenex> oh
[07:20] <xenex> meh
[07:20] <sexauer> nuked: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25480/
[07:21] <idefixx> xenex: what are you trying to do?
[07:21] <xenex> edit a xchat script
[07:21] <TheCougar> ih70: got me right to a prompt. but the bigger issue now is i don't know how to do anything with commands;)
[07:21] <Deep> That gpg is so dead (8
[07:22] <Nuked> sexauer, the synaptics touchpad is loaded
[07:22] <adrian_> ubuntu en espaol
[07:22] <adrian_> ???
[07:22] <kelvie> noiesmo: yeah so do I :P
[07:22] <ih70> TheCougar: in Virtual PC (the same as in VMWare) if you click inside the host window it should "grab" the focus and the mouse should start moving only inside the host. You have to press right Control key to release the control. The keys might be different. See in Settings
[07:22] <TheCougar> ih70: trying to do the install with the keyboard and see if the installed copy will use the mouse
[07:22] <pike_> adrian_: que?
[07:22] <crdlb> xenex, if it's a .so, it's a compiled binary, so you'd need the source code
[07:22] <visham> 3 days on and couldn't solve my nmap problem
[07:22] <Monteh> hey guys, ubuntu extractor, throws this error message at me (  error:  invalid compressed data to inflate  ) does that mean archive damage, or unrecognised archive format?
[07:22] <TheCougar> ih70: yeah i use vpc for a lot of things. its not grabbing the host mouse
[07:22] <adrian_> como entrar aun canal ubuntu en espaol
[07:22] <visham> nmap Os scan run freezes my adsl modem
[07:22] <crdlb> Monteh, what format is it? (what extension)
[07:22] <visham> what is the problem
[07:22] <idefixx> xenex: arent they in phyton or perl usualy? well if there are binary plugins you'll have to recompile it.
[07:22] <sexauer> nuked:  but its not working...i load qsynaptics and it says the driver is not loaded
[07:22] <ih70> TheCougar: Most likely you are going to have the same problems as in the LiveCD
[07:23] <ih70> TheCougar: Not grabbing the mouse is pretty odd
[07:23] <gnychis> how do i setup a different archive from us.archive.ubuntu.com ?
[07:23] <baconbits> Did anyone see my question? Should I ask again? I don't want to be annoying >_>
[07:23] <sexauer> nuked: plus at the bottom of the log, it says that it cant find the hardware
[07:23] <gnychis> (for apt-get)
[07:23] <xenex> idefixx, yeah i have the source code. i just didn't know it was a binary
[07:23] <adrian_> o alguien me podria ayudar
[07:23] <Monteh> .zip crdib
[07:23] <TheCougar> ih70: yeah i agree:-/ and it is extremely slow. i think thats why i thought the display wasn't working before. the live cd took at least 2 minutes to boot even though it was an iso
[07:23] <xenex> idefixx, i've been able to edit .so files before though

[07:24] <gnychis> pike_: so is it broken down by country only?  i can't enter something like a mirror at a university?
[07:25] <crdlb> gnychis, system>administration>software sources
[07:28] <idefixx> xenex: yeah? since they are binarys its shouldnt be possible to 'just' edit them.. i mean you can replace the asm class and so on... but afaik you there is no other way to edit a binary.
[07:28] <crdlb> gnychis, there you can pick a different mirror
[07:28] <Monteh> cheers crdib ill take a look
[07:28] <idefixx> idefixx: class=calls
[07:28] <baconbits> Hello?
[07:28] <pike_> gnychis: oh well yeah you can. just open the file in an editor and place a # comment in front of the one you want to replace and add the new one.  editor command 'gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list'
[07:28] <gnychis> crdlb: i'm on a barebones install, no gnome or anything
[07:28] <idefixx> damn it im to tiered

[07:28] <pike_> i just got mythtv working :) i may stay up all night and call in tomorrow
[07:28] <Nuked> greg he is going to have to install the gutenprint drivers
[07:28] <crdlb> gnychis, then you edit your sources.list by hand as pike_ said
[07:28] <baconbits> No one is responding to me...I feel invisible
[07:28] <pike_> who said that?
[07:28] <Nuked> greg_ he is going to have to install the gutenprint drivers
[07:28] <TheCougar> ih70: ha even stranger, scroll lock gets turned on every time i click on the virtaul PC to try to lock the mouse
[07:28] <pike_> baconbits: got a problem?
[07:28] <greg_> adrian un buen canal es linux_novatos, pero tienes que mirar en internet como entrar en IRC.HISPANO, que tiene unos servidores
[07:28] <TheCougar> actaully ever time i bring it to the for front
[07:28] <baconbits> Yeah I said it earlier I can resend it though
[07:28] <baconbits> I tried using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh and choosing vesa, but I rebooted after I had completed it all, and I was again presented with a message saying x server wasn't started. if it helps, the error says "No screens"
[07:28] <ih70> TheCougar: There should be a way to install the equivalent of "VMWare tools" inside the Ubuntu guest and the mouse should work properly then. Don't remember what it was called in Virtual PC. I use mostly VMWare Server and only have a few "inherited" virtual machines inside Virtual PC. For me the big advantage of VMWare over Virtual PC is the support for USB devices.
[07:28] <pike_> baconbits: well no reason to reboot. to test it type 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
[07:28] <crdlb> baconbits, wow vesa didn't work :/  do you have any internet connection?
[07:29] <baconbits> My only connection is my grandma's neighbors' wifi...and I tried wget www.google.com and it didn't work, so I'm assuming my wifi card isn't enabled in the console
[07:29] <visham> when i run the command 'nmap -sS -T4 -O scanme.nmap.org' my modem freezes after few seconds although nmap continues scanning and shows little progress
[07:29] <ih70> baconbits: How are you chatting here then? From a different machine?
[07:29] <pike_> baconbits: sudo ifconfig -a    do you have a wifi0 or an ath0 or eth1 or anything?
[07:29] <greg_> adrian:  prueva lo que te dice Nuked, busca gutenprint drivers, a ver si te aparece algo as en el sinaptic
[07:29] <baconbits> From the windows partition
[07:30] <baconbits> If it helps, I do have a USB flash drive...can I somehow get the drivers I need onto it and access them when I'm in ubuntu?
[07:30] <plex0r> hey can anyone help me?
[07:30] <Nuked> greg_ pero yo creo que este modulo es solamente para el printer, y no para el scaner
[07:30] <crdlb> baconbits, yes if you can get the xorg-driver-fglrx package and install that
[07:31] <crdlb> baconbits, then run the dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg command and choose the fglrx driver
[07:31] <pike_> baconbits: its fairly easy to connect to wifi spot if they are not using wpa encryption. once youre connected it would make fixing easier
[07:31] <greg_> OK. adrian, ya lo has "oido" :)
[07:31] <Nuked> crdlb, whats his problem?
[07:31] <plex0r> i installed ubuntu 7.04 64bit alternate version, and the system always freezes, especially while using apt-get, how can i fix this?
[07:31] <baconbits> Is there any way you could get me some step by step instructions? I'm new to ubuntu. Also, they dont have any encryption on their wifi so if that is easier, I could do that.
[07:31] <greg_> whats the command of gear-glx to test?
[07:31] <crdlb> Nuked, even vesa won't work on his ati card, so he need to get fglrx
[07:32] <crdlb> greg_, glxinfo|grep direct
[07:32] <defrysk> greg_, glxinfo | grep direct
[07:32] <greg_> OK :)
[07:32] <crdlb> greg_, that command is actually useful :D you were looking for glxgears though
[07:32] <ih70> plex0r: For the system to freeze you have a hardware problem. You should probably run memcheck from the install CD
[07:32] <niekie> Heh, let's see if Safari for Windows works on Wine :P
[07:32] <adrian> lo intentare
[07:32] <plex0r> ok ih70 i will
[07:32] <defrysk> glxgears is no use for benchmarking
[07:32] <niekie> A browser designed for one OS, running on another "emulated" OS :P
[07:32] <plex0r> but i dont have this problem with any other distribution(slackware, opensuse)
[07:33] <GSF1200S> ih70.. it could be a driver controlling hardware
[07:33] <pike_> this room is filled with hippies!
[07:33] <niekie> pike_: hahaha.
[07:33] <niekie> Aww.. Safari install failed.
[07:33] <Nuked> pike_, !offtopic
[07:33] <niekie> No idea why.
[07:33] <crdlb> baconbits, what wireless chipset do you have? look in the windows device manager you don't know
[07:33] <TheCougar> ih70: the fact that vpc doesn't have usb support is a huge disapointment for me. but it has installed on my systems easier then vmware has in the past
[07:33] <niekie> Hrmm.. found why, I guess..
[07:33] <Nuked> niekie, they released safari for windows
[07:33] <ih70> plex0r: hmm... In that case is it possible you installed the wrong architecture?
[07:33] <kraypius> im trying to compile mac80211 and I get Checking kernel compatibility in:

[07:33] <kraypius>    ! Requires netif_tx_lock_bh ! No compatiblity patch available.
[07:33] <greg_> direct rendering: Yes   ???
[07:33] <niekie> It tried to start the Bonjour service.. while I explicitly said to not do that :P
[07:33] <atrus> any thoughts on why nm-applet would connect to wpa2 networks, but not wide-open unsecured access points?
[07:33] <GSF1200S> virtualbox is awesome
[07:33] <TheCougar> ih70: and yeah the virtaul machine additions can't be installed on a *nix os. microsoft hates all things different:)
[07:33] <crdlb> greg_, it's working then
[07:34] <niekie> Nuked: I know.
[07:34] <niekie> But...
[07:34] <niekie> I'm running Safari for Windows under Wine ;)
[07:34] <niekie> Or at least, trying to.
[07:34] <adrian> oiganhay una pagina que me dice como configurarlo con la terminal pero no se usarla

[07:35] <niekie> Nuked: it is.
[07:35] <aslan> hello, I installed a panel applet in gnome and it brought down the entire gnome panel.. I have removed the package gnome-panel-macaplet
[07:35] <aslan> but if I restart gnome-panel it still seg faults
[07:35] <niekie> Nuked: Though I use a special personal build of Wine.
[07:35] <niekie> With patches.
[07:35] <niekie> So Joost runs on it ;)
[07:35] <aslan> is there a way to reset the panel or remove a config file ?
[07:35] <ih70> TheCougar: MS is now in very tight competition with VMWare in that market. I remember reading a press release that they do support Linux as guest
[07:35] <crdlb> baconbits, that's no good, ubuntu doesn't come with drivers for it
[07:35] <Seiyajin> hi all... i installed Ubuntu via Wubi last night, but I have wireless ethernet so I didn't have a connection... I was then on Windows and just tried plugging in an ethernet cable and rebooted and tried to boot up in Ubuntu
[07:35] <Seiyajin> but I got Error 17
[07:35] <MacDrunk> well see ya all
[07:35] <Seiyajin> any suggestions?
[07:35] <greg_> crdlb: then I can to install beryl ?
[07:35] <niekie> Anyway, got to go now :)
[07:35] <Nuked> niekie, let me try and see if my busted version of wine does the job
[07:36] <crdlb> greg_, yes, if you need help /j #ubuntu-effects  this channel is nuts
[07:36] <grammasta> I just installed kdocker using the synaptic package manager, but it doesn't show up in the menu. First time user of ubuntu 7.04
[07:36] <TheCougar> ih70: yeah i've been able to install various *nix OSes on it in the past. with mixed results
[07:36] <Zenji> Ugh OCD is fun.
[07:36] <niekie> Nuked: could you MemoServ me your findings?
[07:36] <Nuked> sure
[07:36] <adrian> mi escaner no lo se configurar
[07:36] <niekie> Thanks :)
[07:36] <ih70> What the heck is Wubi? Second time someone mentions it
[07:36] <niekie> I'm off now.
[07:36] <baconbits> Its a windows based installer for ubuntu
[07:36] <greg_> OK, I'm going to.
[07:37] <baconbits> it adds ubuntu to the boot record for windows, and installs via windows to free hdd space, without creating a partition
[07:37] <kinkin> is there an easy/best way to configure apache2?
[07:37] <ih70> GSF1200S: I have not tried virtualbox. Does it have USB support? I think it did not have USB when I was reading about it some 2-3 months ago
[07:38] <adrian> ayudenme con mi scaner
[07:38] <GSF1200S> ih70: yeah, it has USB support
[07:38] <grammasta> anyone know anything about kdocker ?
[07:38] <defrysk> grammasta, you are using gnome ?
[07:38] <Seiyajin> so... how the heck do I fix Error 17?
[07:38] <baconbits> Ok so can someone give me step by step for getting the fglrx drivers, as well as the drivers for my wifi card onto my USB flash drive and then installing them?
[07:38] <grammasta> yes
[07:38] <GSF1200S> its also got pointer integration- it automatically captures and releases the mouse, etc...
[07:38] <defrysk> grammasta, kdocker is for kde so uts useless for you
[07:38] <defrysk> its*
[07:39] <ih70> plexor: Yes, GSF1200S is right. The other suspect is a driver. Any "funky" hardware that you can think of?
[07:39] <grammasta> ah...:-) I tried alltray first, but couldn't get it to work
[07:39] <adrian> grtacias por la ayuda
[07:39] <grammasta> I just want to minimize evolution mail to the tray
[07:39] <defrysk> grammasta, alltry is easy to use, first klik the alltray button, then klick the app you wish to dock
[07:40] <baconbits> I'm registered and authed if it'd be easier to pm with me, just fyi
[07:40] <grammasta> yeah, I tried that..but nothing happened when I clicked on the program
[07:40] <idefixx> defrysk: afaik kdocker works with gnome.. never tried it but the description says it does.
[07:40] <defrysk> idefixx, thats intersting, did not know that ..
[07:40] <Nuked> how do I leave a memo for someone?
[07:40] <baconbits> use memoserv
[07:41] <baconbits> /msg memoserv help
[07:41] <grammasta> where do i click ?
[07:41] <_Ahti> ooh i love VMware
[07:41] <renic> crdlb: interesting article, but it didn't really address the reasons why I would typically compile a custom kernel (i.e. for very specific workloads, or for use on a "less than modern" system).  I wonder how much of ubunto is statically compiled into the kernel, and how much is loaded as modules during boot.
[07:41] <baconbits> Ok so can someone give me step by step for getting the fglrx drivers, as well as the drivers for my wifi card onto my USB flash drive and then installing them?
[07:42] <crdlb> renic, everything that can be a module is a module
[07:42] <defrysk> grammasta, as soon as you klick the alltray button in the menu your cursor becomes a + click that + on the app you wish to dock
[07:42] <Nuked> baconbits thanks
[07:42] <baconbits> No prob
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Booting find /wubi/boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Find--set-root-- ignore  floppies /wubi/boot/grub/menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Error 17: File not found
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Booting find /menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Find--set-root- ignore  floppies /menu.lst
[07:42] <Seiyajin> Error 17: file not found
[07:42] <Seiyajin> that's what I get
[07:42] <grammasta> yeah, I get the + icon, but no matter where I click in the Evolution Mail window, nothing happens
[07:42] <defrysk> grammasta, dont click the box that pops up , that box is a cancel box
[07:43] <Seiyajin> how do I find the file?
[07:43] <renic> crdlb: and is everything that can't be a module necessary? :)
[07:43] <defrysk> grammasta, alltray works like a charm here, not sure what goes wrong then
[07:43] <grammasta> yeah, I know, but nothing happens when I click outside of that....(got evolution mail open when I start alltray)
[07:44] <tyoc> Hi there, I have an nvidia 8800, but in the newest driers of nvidia for linux, the support list is only to 8600, will this drivers work with my graphic card???
[07:44] <renic> not trying to sound like I know what i'm talking about, just want to learn... being new to linux.
[07:44] <crdlb> tyoc, the 8800 came out first
[07:44] <tyoc> then, it is already supported?
[07:48] <crdlb> tyoc, even the 9755 driver supports the 8800.  the packages in ubuntu's repositories have a bug which prevents them from working with the 8800
[07:48] <mythtv> Brian-myth
[07:48] <grammasta> can i click anywhere in the window, or is there somewhere special I have to click ?
[07:48] <tyoc> crdbl, then I get best if I install the latest ones?
[07:48] <defrysk> grammasta, just click the + inside the evolution mail window
[07:48] <baconbits> I still need help :D
[07:48] <tyoc> Linux Display Driver - x86 Version: 100.14.09
[07:48] <grammasta> what should happen when i do that ?
[07:48] <crdlb> tyoc, in general I never recommend installing the drivers outside of the repositories, so what you can do is install the driver with the restricted drivers manager, and then copy over the missing file (libwfb.so)
[07:48] <crdlb> tyoc, there are numerous guides to this on the ubuntu forums
[07:48] <tyoc> OK, then I will check them out
[07:48] <defrysk> grammasta, evolution mail minimises and you'll see a mail tray icon appearing
[07:48] <baconbits> I still need help :D
[07:48] <grammasta> that doesn't happen here.....
[07:48] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[07:49] <grammasta> is there any way I can set alltray up so that when i click minimize in evolution mail, it will minimize to the tray ?
[07:49] <baconbits> And just like that, no one is helping anyone :(
[07:49] <kraypius> why is this happening? http://pastebin.ca/565849
[07:50] <ih70> baconbits: If you were to ask a question, maybe someone would
[07:50] <defrysk> grammasta, it does not work that way, first open the evolution mailbox, then klick alltray icon, then click the evolution gui and it will dock
[07:50] <gnychis> is there something i can read up for hibernating my laptop?
[07:50] <baconbits> ih70 I asked it ages ago...should I continue asking?
[07:50] <ih70> baconbits: I have not seen it "ages ago"
[07:50] <grammasta> I've tried to do that, but it's not working.....do I have to restart the computer ?
[07:51] <geeksauce> hey, can anyone explain to me how to connect to a unic share?
[07:51] <defrysk> nope
[07:51] <geeksauce> unix
[07:51] <defrysk> grammasta, not sure whart is wrong, it works like a charm here
[07:51] <tovella> baconbits: i've been working on a few problems in a few different channels & did not see your question.
[07:51] <grammasta> hmmm....that sucks........I want to have evolution open, but not take up space on the bottom
[07:51] <ih70> geeksauce: What would be the definition of "unix share"?
[07:52] <baconbits> I have an ATI card that is apparently not supported by the vesa drivers. I was told I need the flgrx drivers, but I'm not on a wired connection and the driver for my wifi isn't built into linux. I have a usb drive...my idea was that I could possibly get both those drivers onto my usb drive and install them from there. problem is, I'm completely new (hours) to linux, so I don't know how to do that. I am on windows partition right now.
[07:52] <geeksauce> ih70: NFS share
[07:52] <kraypius> why can i never get an answer in this room unless im asking a complete n00b question
[07:52] <ih70> geeksauce: Sorry, not familiar with NFS
[07:53] <geeksauce> ih70: it's the industry standard *nix file sharing protocol
[07:53] <PurpZeY> kraypius: Sorry, I don't know about that information.
[07:53] <grammasta> any other program I can use instead of alltray ?
[07:54] <tovella> baconbits: yes, you could put the drivers on another drive.  i would get the stuff you need for your wi-fi, & put them on there, as well.
[07:54] <defrysk> grammasta, there is one other option and that is a mail notification applet : sudo apt-get install mail-notification-evolution
[07:54] <_Ahti> Hello, when i wan't to copy a large amount of files with "cp". Is there a command that will copy everything BUT a selected file/dir of my choice?
[07:54] <ih70> kraypius: If I am not mistaken it says it can't find "curses.h"
[07:54] <grammasta> alright, I'll check that out
[07:55] <kraypius> yeah i see
[07:55] <baconbits> Exactly...But I wouldn't know a trustworthy place to get those drivers, what they would be called, how to make sure I get the right version, or how to access and install them once I boot to ubuntu
[07:55] <kraypius> i used the apt source package
[07:55] <kraypius> shouldnt it have this?
[07:55] <tritium> kraypius: sudo aptitude install libncurses5
[07:56] <ih70> kraypius: I don't think that getting the source package installs the necessary dependencies needed to build that package
[07:56] <mage> might need -dev (random guess)
[07:56] <tritium> right, mage
[07:56] <tovella> baconbits: which ati card & wi-fi?
[07:56] <kraypius> i already have that lib installed
[07:56] <tritium> baconbits: why are you trying vesa?  Did you try the open "ati" driver?  (not fglrx)
[07:57] <tritium> kraypius: the -dev version?
[07:57] <kraypius> by source package i mean linux-source-2.6.20
[07:57] <ih70> kraypius: I am not sure, but if you try to build a .deb from the source it should then install all the -dev packages it needs
[07:57] <baconbits> Intel Wireless Wifi Link 4965AGN
[07:57] <baconbits> and it's the X1400 ATI Mobility radeon
[07:57] <tritium> baconbits: I'm asking about your video driver
[07:58] <kraypius> tritium, thanks, that dev lib fixed it
[07:58] <Jerichau> hey all, i ran and apt-get update && apt-get upgrade last night and wasn't able to get a couple of program working this morning, is there anyway to check which packages were updated (I didn't really look at the list at the time)
[07:58] <tritium> kraypius: no problem
[07:59] <baconbits> I tried vesa because I was told to. When I first started ubuntu after installing, it said "No screens" after it said it couldnt start the x server or whatever. I asked here and someone told me to try vesa. I did and it gave me the same error, so they said I'd need fglrx
[07:59] <tritium> baconbits: you should try "ati" and "radeon" before vesa
[07:59] <sparr> if vesa says no screens, i think the problem may be more serious
[08:00] <sparr> you should read your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and find the problems
[08:00] <tovella> baconbits: the driver you need for the ati card is  xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:00] <crdlb> tritium, there is no r500 support in the radeon dirver
[08:00] <crdlb> not even 2d
[08:00] <tritium> crdlb: okay, then ati
[08:00] <crdlb> tritium, ati = radeon
[08:00] <defrysk> if vesa does not work , nothing will work
[08:00] <ih70> baconbits: AFACS the driver for the Intel Wifi is http://intellinuxwireless.org/  It is very new, so it's probably not in the normal repos yet.
[08:00] <tritium> crdlb: there is no difference at all?
[08:01] <crdlb> ati is just a wrapper that loads radeon or r128
[08:01] <tritium> ah, right
[08:01] <tovella> baconbits: for the driver for your wi-fi, have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Intel_4965_AGN_WiFi_Driver/Fiesty
[08:01] <tritium> defrysk: I've had vesa not work, yet other drivers do
[08:01] <crdlb> and I have heard of ati cards not working of vesa
[08:01] <crdlb> on*
[08:01] <defrysk> tritium, ooh
[08:02] <v3n0m`> I need help getting tv tuner working?
[08:02] <tritium> defrysk: but in general, I think what you said _should_ be true
[08:03] <baconbits> Now where do I get fglrx?
[08:03] <zeeeee> help, i can't really tell where my ssh login is failing (and why). it *seems* like i'm actually able to log in and start the login shell (/usr/NX/bin/nxserver)...but then what happens? http://rafb.net/p/TzIWDf18.html
[08:04] <Frogzoo> fglrx is in the repos for "restricted" drivers - xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:04] <kazim59> is it possible to import my Windows/Fonts to Ubuntu?
[08:04] <tritium> baconbits: if you need to transfer it on a usb stick or similar due to not having internet access, get it off of packages.ubuntu.com
[08:05] <baconbits> Where at? I'm there now, but I don't know where to go
[08:05] <tovella> baconbits: looking to find where you can get the files.
[08:05] <sparr> I have a Gigabyte GA-M61PM-S2 motherboard with onboard audio.  Manual says Realtek ALC883 chip.  LSPCI says "nVidia Corporation MCP61 High Definition Audio".  lsmod says I am using snd_hda_intel.  Audio in most OSS games has static/clicking/popping.  ALSA games work fine. Help?
[08:05] <Frogzoo> kazim59: sure
[08:05] <Zvezdichko`away> hello, how to install mp3 support for Rhytmbox?
[08:05] <Frogzoo> !fonts | kazim59
[08:05] <ubotu> kazim59: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[08:06] <baconbits> Package xorg-driver-fglrx <<This?
[08:06] <Frogzoo> baconbits: yep
[08:06] <tritium> baconbits: http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/misc/xorg-driver-fglrx
[08:06] <kazim59> Frogzoo: thanks
[08:06] <puff> How do I figure out which version of bluez I have installed?
[08:07] <baconbits> Which one do I dl, amd64 or 1386?
[08:07] <ih70> puff: dpkg -l | grep bluez
[08:07] <baconbits> i386*
[08:07] <tritium> puff: or, apt-cache policy bluez
[08:07] <tovella> baconbits: does your machine have an intel or an amd processor?
[08:07] <baconbits> intel
[08:07] <tyoc> hey crdbl, you have say " tyoc, in general I never recommend installing the drivers outside of the repositories, so what you can do is install the driver with the restricted drivers manager, and then copy over the missing file (libwfb.so)"
[08:07] <tovella> baconbits: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20/xorg-driver-fglrx_7.1.0-8.34.8+<IP_ADDRESS>-16.28_i386.deb
[08:08] <baconbits> OK so I save that to my usb drive...then what's the process for installing it?
[08:08] <bluebanana> how do i run a foo.sh file?
[08:08] <puff> Hm, says bluez 3.9.
[08:08] <bluebanana> is there a point-and-click way to run an .sh file?
[08:08] <puff> ih70, tritium, gracias.
[08:08] <sparr> bluebanana: doubleclick it
[08:08] <tyoc> what you mean with the missing file??
[08:08] <tyoc> Im reading http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Latest_nvidia_feisty and havent found any note about it??
[08:08] <tritium> baconbits: sudo dpkg -i </path/to/foo.deb>
[08:09] <baud-chan> sup?
[08:09] <tyoc> puth execution permission over the file and double click it, or in a terminal do chmod +x file.sh or simply do sh file.sh
[08:09] <tovella> baconbits: after you get the file on your usb drive, you should be able to navigate to the drive, and double-click on the file.  it should open gdebi, which is a graphical package installer.
[08:09] <ih70> bluebanana: Yes, double-click on it as on any other executable. For this to work the file needs to have the "execute" flag -  # chmod +x file.sh
[08:10] <baconbits> I dont know how to navigate, and if its in the console how would I double click?
[08:10] <tritium> baconbits: see what I told you above.  The path should be somewhere under /media
[08:10] <sahil_> anyone know how i can change the openoffice splash screen?
[08:10] <tyoc> open nautilus, ALT+F2 write nautilus
[08:10] <tovella> baconbits: i'm not talking about using the console, i'm talking about doing it the graphical way.
[08:11] <tritium> tovella: he has no X right now
[08:11] <baconbits> well that wou;d be hard without x
[08:11] <tovella> tritium: oh...
[08:11] <baconbits> lol
[08:11] <moustafa> Can I know who block me on aMSN?
[08:11] <baconbits> tritium how will I know the path
[08:12] <tritium> baconbits: it depends on your usb stick, but it should show up under /media after you plug it in
[08:12] <moustafa> Hello
[08:12] <baud-chan> I need some sound card support, I am using a gateway MT6458.
[08:12] <moustafa> Can nobody help me?
[08:12] <baconbits> tritium well I'm a total newb so I don't know how to navigate around
[08:12] <moustafa> Can I know who block me on aMSN?
[08:12] <tritium> baconbits: with the "cd" command
[08:12] <puff> configure: error: Sorry, you should install the libbluetooth library before trying to compile this package
[08:12] <baconbits> tritium just like windows?
[08:12] <tovella> baconbits: then "sudo dpkg -i xorg-driver-fglrx_7.1.0-8.34.8+<IP_ADDRESS>-16.28_i386.deb" would be the best bet.
[08:13] <puff> dpkg -l libbluetooth1 --> ii  libbluetooth1            2.24-0ubuntu1            Library to use the BlueZ Linux Bluetooth stack
[08:13] <puff> Wtf?
[08:13] <tritium> baconbits: I guess
[08:13] <ih70> puff: What exactly is the problem
[08:14] <puff> ih70: Trying to build avetanabt.sourceforge.net, on top of bluez.  Not working :-(.
[08:14] <tritium> moustafa: perhaps there is an amsn channel in which you can ask that question
[08:14] <tritium> puff: that's not a -dev library
[08:14] <moustafa> Thank you
[08:14] <puff> tritium: Come again?
[08:14] <ih70> puff: What is the error you are getting?
[08:14] <crdlb> tyoc, ok: use the restricted drivers manager, then before rebooting, follow: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2687780&postcount=16
[08:14] <tritium> puff: you don't have a development library with headers installed.  You only have the shared libs installed.
[08:15] <crdlb> tyoc, are you using 32bit?
[08:15] <puff> I'm mostly working from these instructions:   http://www.valhallachat.com/?q=book/export/html/11
[08:15] <tritium> puff: i.e., get the -dev version of the library package
[08:15] <lumai> #
[08:15] <crdlb> baconbits, one thing worth considering is to install a driver for your linux partition in windows
[08:16] <crdlb> baconbits, then you can place the .deb in /home/username/ and it'll be much easier to install
[08:16] <lekremyelsew> crdlb: you can?
[08:16] <crdlb> lekremyelsew, yes
[08:16] <puff> tritium: Ah-hah... now I see it.
[08:16] <tyoc> crdlb, thanks for the help
[08:16] <tovella> tritium: ..."show up under /media after you plug it in"  ...will that work (automount) without the gui?
[08:16] <tritium> tovella: yes
[08:16] <tyoc> yes, Im using 32 bit
[08:16] <ih70> puff; Did you install "libbluetooth1-dev" ?
[08:16] <tovella> tritium: good to know.
[08:16] <tritium> ih70: I told him to
[08:16] <puff> tritium: will libbluetooth-dev and libbluetooth2-dev confict?
[08:17] <Tarkus> anyone here use banshee music player? im trying to figure out why it gives me this error when i try to import these files: http://img482.imageshack.us/img482/3603/screenshotld0.png
[08:17] <tritium> puff: they may.  You'd have to investigate
[08:17] <puff> There doesn't appear to be a libbluetooth1-dev, just libbluetooth-dev.
[08:17] <puff> Hm.
[08:17] <NeXtDaY> I read an article about how to install wine.. it says that winecfg must be installed with with wine.. do I install winecfg manually?
[08:17] <tritium> NeXtDaY: it's in the wine package
[08:17] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, it is part of wine
[08:17] <baconbits> tritium I'll go try that...if it doesn't work i'm going to bed and I'll be abck tomorrow
[08:17] <tritium> baconbits: I'm goign to bed also
[08:17] <baconbits> Thanks tritium and tovella
[08:18] <tritium> going*
[08:18] <NeXtDaY> aha thanks tritium |_ocks :)
[08:18] <tovella> baconbits: happy sleeping.
[08:18] <tritium> Good luck, baconbits.  If you have troubles, we'll see you tomorrow.
[08:18] <tritium> NeXtDaY: :)
[08:18] <baconbits> You too, thanks, see ya tomorrow if it doesn't work!
[08:18] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, np
[08:19] <NeXtDaY> tritium: another question please: do i need to run winecfg before running wine?
[08:19] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, its a good idea
[08:19] <kraypius> tritium, what is this thing complaining about? http://pastebin.ca/565868
[08:19] <|_ocke> i dont see why youd ask instead of running it first to find out anyways :)
[08:20] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke lol
[08:20] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke: I am still new to Ubuntu.. gimme a break ;-)
[08:20] <|_ocke> anything that is 'cfg' or 'config' i think would be common sense or at least curiosity to run before running any program
[08:20] <tovella> Tarkus: what error message do you get?
[08:20] <ih70> puff: It can't find the file dev.c
[08:21] <|_ocke> NeXtDaY, well, in taht case.. its common sense or at least you should be curious enough to run configuration of any program befopre running the program
[08:21] <|_ocke> besides, you want it to run the way you intend and operate on the data you intend anyways, right?
[08:21] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke right
[08:21] <tovella> Tarkus: oh, i see it now.
[08:22] <NeXtDaY> |_ocke ok. thats clear so far..
[08:22] <|_ocke> so always try configuring everything first is the moral here
[08:23] <Icehawk78> If you wish to create a user in MySQL that can be connected to from any host, what would you specify under the host column?
[08:24] <tovella> Tarkus: i have no idea about why banshee would do this.  have you tried other music players?  exaile, maybe?
[08:25] <Tarkus> tovella, it works in everything else yeah. but banshee is the player that i use and like.
[08:27] <tovella> Tarkus: i can't find anything about why, nor how to fix it.
[08:28] <tovella> Tarkus: i like the screenshot, though.  what theme is it?  where can i get it?
[08:29] <sahil_> so anyway to replace the openoffice splash screen?
[08:29] <moustafa> Can nobody help me? I would like to ask about any program make a chat voice like " Yahoo " but in ubuntu 7.4 ?
[08:29] <khin> hi, i just downloaded gnutella-gtk, but how do i use it? first idea was just hit search but that doesnt do anything
[08:29] <Toulouse> hey guys, i can get to a computer using vnc, but how do i get to is using ssh?
[08:29] <Toulouse> im new to this stuff
[08:30] <kinkin> how can i check to see what services are running, like mysql?
[08:30] <tovella> khin: i used to use that program.  it's got a lot of features & functions that might be best found on their documentation page.
[08:30] <ketamine> i just downloaded a file on desktop
[08:30] <ketamine> and i dont know where did it go
[08:30] <ketamine> lol
[08:30] <gnychis> is there a nice GUI to install new apt mirrors?
[08:31] <Toulouse> also, how  can i get internet on a computer that is connected via network cable to a computer that has internet?
[08:31] <kinkin> Toulouse: easiest way is with a router
[08:31] <tovella> gnychis: System > Administration > Software Sources.
[08:31] <sparr> Toulouse: the one computer has to be set up as a router and a gateway, and the other has to use it
[08:31] <Toulouse> okie dokie
[08:32] <Toulouse> nvm, this is not a permanent setup
[08:32] <sparr> or you just get a hardware router and connect them both
[08:32] <Toulouse> but how do i transfer files from one to the other?
[08:32] <khin> ok ill look at their docs
[08:32] <Toulouse> via a network cable
[08:32] <kinkin> Toulouse: sparr's way will work too, just takes some time/effort to configure compared
[08:32] <kinkin> Toulouse: using FTP, scp, samba, there are many ways
[08:33] <Tarkus> tovella, the window boarder is "stormcloud". http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/StormCloud?content=44355

[08:42] <Flannel> Itr0nic: Check the md5 of your ISO file, to make sure it's good, and then burn again at 4x

[08:44] <renic> or rather the second link
[08:44] <UNDERsoN> Who can Help me make-kpkg said me that nothing to be done. Should I do make befor this command or not?
[08:45] <renic> what is the ubuntu equivelant of .xinitrc ?
[08:45] <sakredei> so kind of random question but: my neighbor is using my internet and i don't really care but she doesn't know i know (connected through wireless) anyway is there anyway i can send her  a message or something through the router?
[08:45] <renic> or will xorg process an .xinitrc if i make one?
[08:45] <Plantain> Thanks for the ISO link, worked a treat
[08:46] <renic> sakredei what OS is she using?
[08:46] <sakredei> windows
[08:46] <renic> there is a messaging service that used to be running by default on xp

[08:48] <moustafa> chat voice
[08:48] <renic> sakredei: start here http://www.itc.virginia.edu/desktop/docs/messagepopup/
[08:48] <renic> tells you how to disable it
[08:48] <UNDERsoN> idefixx No, I should run it in fake root. No everething is fine. I just Read This Fine Manual )
[08:48] <renic> a decent place to start
[08:48] <sakredei> thanks :)
[08:48] <NeXtDaY> Flannel: what is Samba?
[08:49] <idefixx> UNDERsoN: if everything is fine... i cant help you.

[08:50] <moustafa> Nice to see you
[08:51] <moustafa> What about you?
[08:51] <NeXtDaY> hehe.
[08:51] <a12345> Simple question -- what can you make good use of "working desktop" the 2 box -- which located on right hand side of the foot menu bar
[08:51] <Itr0nic> can find the hash in the md file
[08:51] <Itr0nic> cant*
[08:52] <a12345> you can open multiple gedit or Firefox in one working desktop any way ---
[08:52] <a12345> any idea ?
[08:52] <moustafa> NextDay, Where are you from?
[08:52] <enzo_sann> Buongiorno.. ci sono Italiani in chat?
[08:53] <renic> moustafa: http://messenger.yahoo.com/unix.php  <-- maybe that will be helpful since you mentioned yahoo.
[08:53] <moustafa> Andiamo
[08:53] <NeXtDaY> moustafa: come to #noborders
[08:54] <moustafa> ok
[08:54] <NeXtDaY> renic: what is the best program for voice chatting in Ubuntu?
[08:54] <Flannel> a12345: each workspace can hold its own programs, so you can have one for [activity X]  and one for [activity Y]  and you can keep them separate but both still open (or two related things, but still things best to keep separate, references on one, editors on the other, etc)
[08:55] <moustafa> Thanks alot
[08:55] <Flannel> gnomemeeting does h232.  Er, Ekiga.  So anything else that complies to the standard (MS netmeeting, and a slew of others) can chat.
[08:55] <Plantain> erm... I made the possibly fatal mistake of mounting two ISO's to one mountpoint
[08:55] <Plantain> how can I unmount both of them?
[08:56] <idefixx> Plantain: just unmount twice.
[08:56] <Plantain> idefixx: Doesn't work
[08:56] <Plantain> nothing happens
[08:56] <Plantain> and through the gui I get an error saying it's mounted twice
[08:56] <yo2k_> how i install mysql on ubuntu 7.04 ?
[08:56] <a12345> Flannel: I know . But as now - multiple programs can also be run at the same time -- so what is the selling point ? -- i know old unix machine has to have 4 of them --?
[08:57] <idefixx> Plantain: you'll have to supply the mountpoint as target not the device i guess.
[08:57] <moustafa> How can i log as root?
[08:57] <Madpilot> a12345, personally, I run eight virtual desktops, generally 1 app per desktop
[08:57] <Flannel> a12345: Ubuntu has two by default (since... edgy?) before that was four.  The "selling point" is that you don't have to keep shuffling between applications, minimizing/maximizing, moving them around.
[08:57] <Itr0nic> ok the hash file is a match , could the 1 file have made my install not work it would it have to do with the way i burnt the image?
[08:57] <idefixx> idefixx: also run it as root with sudo
[08:57] <Flannel> moustafa: You don't need to.  Ubuntu uses sudo instead of he root account.
[08:58] <idefixx> Plantain: also run it as root with sudo

[09:05] <stinger_au> how do i get this public key
[09:05] <varka> moustafa: you mean the original yahoo messenger?
[09:06] <stinger_au> i tried wget http://mirror.randumb.org/darkmagez/repo/DB5D6B0AA3012FB3.gpg - O | sudo apt-key add but that did not work
[09:06] <Flannel> Frogzoo: you can do it in the BIOS, and a few other places that I forget
[09:06] <moustafa> yes
[09:06] <varka> moustafa: no, there is a less featured and pretty old linuxport of it from yahoo themselves but believe me, gaim is a better alternative
[09:06] <cotyrothery> Anyone know what the next release of ubuntu is going to have in it
[09:07] <gnychis> does anyone know what application this runs: "System > Administration > Software Sources"  I don't have gnome installed but want to use the GUI for selecting mirrors
[09:07] <moustafa> How can i get it?

[09:07] <renic> are there any good articles out there on tuning ubuntu?  I installed it for use as a DAW, and any improvement in performance is more than welcome since i will be running a lot of audio plugins and other resource hungry bits of software.

[09:09] <sahil_> Flannel, you know when you choose your operating system

[09:12] <Itr0nic> do i have to install ubuntu on c drive?
[09:13] <Jordan_U> Can I control my fan speed through software?
[09:13] <Flannel> Itr0nic: no, you can install it anywhere
[09:13] <anandanbu> Flannel: i have installed it but after that configuration is the problem for me
[09:13] <idefixx> gnychis: yep it is... but it'll probably pull a whole bunch of dependencies with it.
[09:14] <Itr0nic> Flannel : does it give me a option when i install it?
[09:14] <Flannel> Itr0nic: yes
[09:14] <Itr0nic> ty
[09:14] <Jordan_U> Itr0nic, You can tell the Ubuntu installer to install to whatever drive you want, you can even have it resize your Windows partition ( C: ) and have Ubuntu and Windows on the same drive
[09:14] <varka> Itr0nic: http://fullcirclemagazine.org/download-manager.php?id=1
[09:15] <sahil_> Flannel, sorry about that. My system is also very unstable
[09:15] <Flannel> anandanbu: Ah, uh, that page says to ask in the ubuntu forums, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385981, which actually appears to have updated instructions.  Might be the best place to ask
[09:15] <sahil_> can somebody please help me
[09:15] <Flannel> sahil_: pastebin your menu.lst (/boot/grub/menu.lst)
[09:15] <sahil_> what is pastbin?
[09:15] <Flannel> !pastebin | sahil_
[09:15] <ubotu> sahil_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[09:15] <necro> Flannel: thank you.  It's up and running, but no sound.  Is it possible it's using the wrong audio card?
[09:16] <sahil_> Flannel, i cannot open the menu.lst file even with sudo from terminal
[09:16] <sahil_> sudo gedit boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:16] <Flannel> sahil_: You don't need to use sudo.  And you missed the leading /: `gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst`

[09:18] <Flannel> sahil_: You need to give us the URL
[09:18] <sahil_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/25483/
[09:22] <Flannel> sahil_: this looks normal.  You'll also notice that it's not 2.1.5 nor 2.1.6, but 2.6.20-15 and 2.6.20-16.  Anyway, whats the issue?  2.5.20-16 doesn't work?  What error does it give?  It's probably all the funky duplicate boot parameters.  Try `sudo update-grub`  that'll regenerate your menu.lst without all the oddities.
