[13:39] <Dr_willis> I recall a 1 inch CUBE minimini pc a few years back
[13:39] <minche> what is the new line symbol in open office?
[13:39] <gordonjcp> ActionParsnip: well you show a Comp Sci grad that and they go "ZOMG OH NOES HOW DOES THE JVM FIT?!!?"
 I have installed 8.04 (an application I have needs this one). So I want to upgrade sshd to latest version possible. Can someone *please* tell me how to do that. I'm struggling for 2 hours with backports but still version I have is not latest (I think) so I get some problems connecting to sshd
[13:40] <Pici> !ot
[13:40] <gordonjcp> woohoo, I'm running Jaunty!
[13:40] <gordonjcp> time to reinstall ;-)
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> miller7: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> miller7: oops
[13:40] <minche> wheni oped some .txt file and it is has all those new-lines and paragraphs, what do i type in search /replace field to replace them :/
[13:40] <ActionParsnip> miller7: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[13:40] <miller7> ActionParsnip: It says I have the latest version
[13:40] <minche> *find/replace
[13:41] <SiDi> miller7: which version do you need ? i think you can enable the ppa repository in order to get the very latest one (it should be somewhere in launchpad.net)
[13:41] <muzanaka> Hi, people!!!
[13:41] <ActionParsnip> miller7: then you have the latest version
[13:41] <Dr_willis> miller7,  theres 'latest version that EXISTS' then theres 'latest version thats in the repositories'
[13:41] <miller7> SiDi: I want an sshd version that runs on vserver guest :(
[13:42] <miller7> sorry guys, I'm all new to ubuntu and repositories. I added security and updates and backports
[13:42] <Andy_> hi I use xubuntu 8.04 LTS and I want to upgrade to 8.10 without the net as I can't reply on the connection, I have the live CD anyway to update from that? or is there a xubuntu 8.10 alt CD out? if yes can anyone link me to a seeded torrent?
[13:42] <dayo_> !d
[13:42] <dayo_> !de
[13:42] <muzanaka> why I can not enter #ubuntu-ru?
[13:42] <minche> :/
[13:42] <eni> ActionParsnip: the readme is very short and nothing about that
[13:42] <muzanaka> !тмшвшф
[13:42] <muzanaka> !nvidia
[13:42] <jrib> muzanaka: /join #ubuntu-ru          to enter
[13:42] <Andy_> !alt
[13:42] <ActionParsnip> eni: i'd ask in #alsa if it exists
[13:43] <TelQuel> heh
[13:43] <Coolkid> do we have *wine* bundled in the ubuntu live disk?
[13:43] <cwillu> Coolkid, no
[13:43] <miller7> SiDi: can I install sshd 5 in ubuntu 8.04?
[13:43] <Coolkid> from where can i download and install wine?
[13:43] <cwillu> Coolkid, apt-get install wine?
[13:43] <Andy_> I mean anyone got XUBUNTU not ubuntu, guess I am in the wrong chat room..?
[13:43] <cwillu> !xubuntu
[13:43] <Dr_willis> Andy_,  lots of people in here use xubuntu also.
[13:44] <jrib> muzanaka: oh, but they've banned 91.145.* .  Join me in #ubuntu-irc please.  I'll see if any op there is around and ask him to talk to you there.  OK?
[13:44] <TeePOG> Andy_: it's more or less the same thing, it just has a different desktop environment
[13:44] <ActionParsnip> Andy_: its supported here, ask your question
[13:44] <Andy_> ah okay thank you but I tried searching mininova for xubuntu 8.10 alt CD but in vain
[13:44] <SiDi> miller7: so your ubuntu is installed as a vm ? what is the problem you have with the current openssh-server, why do you think a newer one would solve the prob ?
[13:44] <Andy_> and I am going with xubuntu cause well....in lay mans terms my PC is a low end one
[13:44] <Dr_willis> Andy_,   theres official ubuntu downloade sites with torrents to it - i recall.. or try the xubuntu homepage
[13:45] <cwillu> miller7, it's not available in the standard repo's
[13:45] <SiDi> Coolkid: you can install it as any application
[13:45] <muzanaka> jrib: I cann't understand why!
[13:45] <SiDi> http://www.winehq.org/download/deb Coolkid for the latest version
[13:45] <Andy_> Dr_willis, I tried that I cound find any link to download the 8.10 alt version, if possible can you link me?
[13:45] <cwillu> !alt
[13:46] <Andy_> thats ubuntu alt..i want xubuntu alt..
[13:46] <miller7> SiDi: my problem is that I edited and removed OOM reference from init.d, so sshd starts now. But when I connect to it I get "fatal: chroot("/var/run/sshd"): Operation not permitted". I assume latest version will fix it since debian lenny sshd works fine on same box (as VM also)
[13:46]  * dsdeiz PsyBNC for sale.. PM me for details..
[13:46] <TelQuel> how do I get back to just regular themes?
[13:47] <Dr_willis> Andy_,  alterntive verion of xubuntu? that may or may not  exist..   i normally just install ubuntu  and then apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[13:47] <TelQuel> where can I find regular non-enhanced ubuntu themes? not emerald etc
[13:47] <cwillu> Andy_, go to xubuntu.com, and follow the links, it's listed prominently
[13:47] <Andy_> Dr_wills, that will work with 190 MB ram?
[13:47] <SiDi> dsdeiz: this isn't #shopping, it's #ubuntu
[13:47] <Dr_willis> Andy_,  Ive ran it on less. :)
[13:47] <Andy_> Dr_wills, thank you very much
[13:48] <Andy_> !alt
[13:48] <cwillu> Andy_, click a nearby mirror, and then click on the alternate download
[13:48] <SiDi> miller7: i don't know what to say :/ you should just have to install openssh-server and its meant 1) to work | 2) to launch automatically
[13:48] <cwillu> Andy_, http://xubuntu.com/get
[13:48] <dsdeiz> oh mehn! sorry about that!
[13:48] <Andy_> Thank you everyone
[13:48] <TelQuel> fosco_, hey is it possible to reset defaults on themes?
[13:48] <fosco_> TelQuel: emerald theme?
[13:48] <utonto> bye
[13:48] <miller7> SiDi: I know :( but it does not so I'm trying to see if 5.1 version will work like in Debian
[13:48] <Dr_willis> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/8.10/release/
[13:48] <SiDi> TelQuel: the default themes are in /usr/share/themes
[13:48] <eni> ActionParsnip: and how i can install from the deb-source
[13:49] <Dr_willis> but he left...
[13:49] <miller7> This one in Lenny works fine: OpenSSH_5.1p1 Debian-5, OpenSSL 0.9.8g 19 Oct 2007
[13:49] <TelQuel> fosco_, nah just plain old ubuntu ones... right now I'm feeling like although the fancier emerald themes look cooler they are not very functional.
[13:49] <fosco_> TelQuel: fusion-icon, use gtk-window-decorator
[13:50] <SiDi> miller7: you should try to find the openssh's dev team's website, they'll have sources of the latest version
[13:50] <guido_> hi, when i try to install ubuntu 8.10 desktop it crashes, i get a pixel mashup and it hangs, also in safe mode, is there a way to install ubuntu in textmode?
[13:50] <SiDi> miller7: or you can try to install the debian's deb in ubuntu but i REALLY don't guarantee the result xD
[13:50] <cwillu> guido_, use an alternate cd
[13:50] <SiDi> guido_: you can try the alternate CD for text mode
[13:50] <cwillu> !alternate guido_
[13:51] <cwillu> !alt | guido_
[13:51] <eni> linux+special hardware=you are screwed!
[13:51] <miller7> SiDi: I don't know how to install the debian's deb... just download the deb file and do dpkg to it?
[13:51] <miller7> I come from Gentoo where I just compiled everything via emerge
[13:51] <guido_> ok thank you cwillu
[13:52] <SiDi> miller7: with gdebi you can install a .deb by double clicking it:p
[13:52] <adam_> miller7: apt-get install
[13:52] <adam_> miller7: apt-cache search
[13:52] <adam_> on end packet name
[13:52] <TelQuel> fosco_, yeah that's good so far but it still has all the weird effects from compiz fusion
[13:52] <SiDi> eni : it's linux + bad hardware constructors, actually
[13:52] <adam_> miller7: and look on google /etc/apt/source.list
[13:52] <adam_> and dowload some good
[13:53] <fosco_> TelQuel: so, yo DO NOT want to use compiz at all?
[13:53] <Pici> adam_: Thats not helpful, hes tring to install a plain .deb
[13:53] <cwillu> fosco_, prefs | appearances | effects | set to none
[13:53] <TelQuel> fosco_, for the time being, I just don't find that the effects add much for me right now and they make it harder to navagate
[13:53] <cwillu> TelQuel, ^^^ (sorry)
[13:53] <miller7> adam_: Good is very wide term since I've seen many repository lists that were not that good to install (I think)
[13:53] <miller7> meaning they were screwing up the system
[13:53] <jimcooncat> I'm looking for documentation on migrating users, groups, and home directories from one Ubuntu computer to another. Anything automated or helper apps out there?
[13:54] <Pici> miller7: Packages made for debian may or may not install properly on Ubuntu, we cannot support those here.
[13:54] <miller7> Pici: yes, I understand
[13:54] <fosco_> TelQuel: fusion-icon - select window manager - metacity
[13:54] <Dr_willis> fusion-icon is handy :)
[13:55] <TelQuel> ok cool, sometime when I have more time I will work on getting a nicer look together. I want something pretty simple you know/
[13:55] <adam_> please check
[13:55] <adam_> nmap -T Aggressive -sV -n -O -v 31337.dyndns.org
[13:55] <adam_> and past me reasult
[13:55] <Siroy> Hi all, I dont know what the protocol is or so ever, but I have a problem with some programs that close unexpected. Could you help me?
[13:56] <inet> +i
[13:56] <jimcooncat> Siroy, just give us more detail
[13:56] <TelQuel> what's another good site for emerald themes?
[13:57] <TelQuel> apart from gnome-look
[13:57] <mmm4m5m> Hi. Question: How to check if my CPU is 64 or 32 bits (sorry for my dummy question)?
[13:57] <Siroy> Oke, thank you! I run the programms transmission and amule. The work for a while and then they close instandly whitout any reason. I work whit ubuntu 8.10
[13:58] <eni> no i use professional audio-hardware
[13:58] <zaggynl> mmm4m5m: sudo cat /proc/cpuinfo , copy paste it to pastebin.com
[13:58] <mmm4m5m> zaggynl: http://pastebin.ca/1318556
[13:59] <jessie> mmm4m5m: it's 64 bit.
[13:59] <mmm4m5m> :)) perfect, thank you :)
[13:59] <Siroy> And when I use system monitor I starts and after 2 seconds it closes
[13:59] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: you are running a cor2duo E8400
[13:59] <zaggynl> core 2 duo, yes it is
[13:59] <jessie> mmm4m5m: you can however, install 32 bit software on it.
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: which, as jessie says, is 64bit
[14:00] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: you CAN run a 32bit OS on it if you want, if you have+3Gb ram, get the 64bit OS
[14:00] <rabbit64> In .gconf settings, where does the panel/{applet_name}_screen0 come from?
[14:00] <mmm4m5m> jessie: I have ubuntu gutsy 32 but 4 gb ram, that why start reading
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: 32bit only reads 3.2Gb RAM effective, depends if you want to reinstall
[14:01] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: and what you use your pc for
[14:01] <mmm4m5m> thank you all for help. Have to consider more do I need 64bits with 4GB or not
[14:02] <mmm4m5m> ActionParsnip: home PC but with virtual machines
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: id go 64bit with Vms
[14:02] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: you could try it a while, see which you think runs better
[14:02] <mmm4m5m> ActionParsnip: not good with linux, want to skip additional issues with 64bits software... that is my concern
[14:03] <fosco_> mmm4m5m: no special issues
[14:03] <ActionParsnip> mmm4m5m: no issues especially, could get another HDD in and try it

[14:35] <Devil> ;)
[14:35] <Cobra_Fast> :)
[14:35] <Tm_T> laeg: there is no such thing as "best" but usually there's no need to use ext2, so ext3 unless otherwise needed
[14:35] <laeg> Tm_T: :D

[14:41] <ActionParsnip> odzk: run lspci | grep -i vga
[14:42] <ActionParsnip> odzk: it will identify your video card, you can websearch from there
[14:42] <odzk> is there a way to downscale the screen to 800x600
[14:42] <Yamikuronue> After I select a certificate in Network Connections it forgets that I told it to use one, the setting won't keep. Any ideas? I only have another 7 minutes before I have to move...
[14:42] <dalekleader> i have an issue with cups-pdf failing in 8.10?  Anyone?
[14:42] <odzk> like the astray plus
[14:42] <changingnicksiss> QUESTION!!!!!!!
[14:42] <changingnicksiss> woops
[14:42] <Photoguy> vlt: sorry it's not pasting well there, it's a couple of MB :P  Here is a different file sharing server.
[14:42] <Photoguy> http://wikisend.com/download/485386/Examples.zip
[14:42] <changingnicksiss> soz for caps
[14:42] <BananusM> does anyone know how to install grub without stage1, stage2 files ?
[14:42] <FloodBot1> changingnicksiss: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[14:42] <BananusM> is there a way to generate them somehow
[14:42] <changingnicksiss> stfu floodbot
[14:43] <ActionParsnip> odzk: you could add a modeline to xorg.conf to allow 800x600
[14:43] <changingnicksiss> why is my writer not working with ubuntu???
[14:43] <laeg> !scandisk
[14:43] <odzk> i see
[14:43] <Yamikuronue> changingnick: I'm pretty sure the floodbot is there for a reason.   Running e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause
[14:44] <laeg> SEVERE filesystem damage.
[14:44] <CompactDstrxion> ubuntu can automatically download and install them for you
[14:44] <Andy^> Can anyone help me out? I can't seem to get audio when watching movies with my new headset :/ works fine when listening to music though..
[14:45] <CompactDstrxion> go to hardware drivers in system > administration
[14:45] <odzk> is it goona be downscale when i will add 800x600 on the xorg.conf
[14:45] <jorvis> CompactDstrxion: "You appear to be running an X server; please exit X before installing"
[14:45] <ActionParsnip> odzk: read the file and add a similar option for the res ou want, read some examples online to get an idea
[14:45] <user-05> _door
[14:45] <odzk> ok
[14:45] <laeg> ActionParsnip: sounds like a codec problem
[14:45] <user-05> testt
[14:45] <heftig> how do i do a two-way sync with a remote rsync server?
[14:45] <jorvis> BananusM: thanks
[14:45] <gnomez> rsync
[14:46] <Andy^> CompactDstrxion: was that a reply to my question or someone else's?
[14:46] <changingnicksiss> its fun yami
[14:46] <changingnicksiss> xD
[14:46] <odzk> one more thing, im using asus eee 4g, i have 4 gd as sdd and another 4g for the sdhc (removable drive). is there a way for me to install ubuntu on the removable drive? i tried unetbootlin but its only installing the live cd.
[14:46] <BananusM> laeg: which partition you want to check ?
[14:46] <dalekleader> when I print using cups-pdf it does not show-up in the ~/user/pdf directory?!  Help!
[14:47] <Yamikuronue> yamidictates: Wow. Someone's immature.
[14:47] <laeg> BananusM: well i've been asked to run fdisk
[14:47] <BananusM> laeg: ? explain
[14:48] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: you usually set the output folder and filename
[14:48] <laeg> BananusM: i'm trying to install a lesser operating system but it's giving me the blue screen of date 40 seconds in and suggesting i check my hardware for errors
[14:48]  * justentertaining nick Devil
[14:48] <justentertaining> woosp
[14:48] <dalekleader> ActionParsnip: the output folder is default...where do you set filename?
[14:48] <Frozenball> Hello
[14:49] <Frozenball> Is Kubuntu stable?
[14:49] <Frozenball> does it use KDE 3.5 or KDE 4.x?
[14:49] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: click file -> print and its all there
[14:49] <BananusM> laeg: well if you want to run fsck you must umount the partition you intend to run it on
[14:50] <laeg> BananusM: is this the thing ubuntu periodically runs at boot?
[14:50] <odzk> one more thing, im using asus eee 4g, i have 4 gd as sdd and another 4g for the sdhc (removable drive). is there a way for me to install ubuntu on the removable drive? i tried unetbootlin but its only installing the live cd.
[14:50] <dalekleader> ActionParsnips, I do that but and the progress bar shows up, the printer icon shows up and it says completed in the cups website but no file
[14:51] <BananusM> laeg: if you mean fsck, then yes
[14:52] <laeg> BananusM: that just ran this morning, so there's no other maintenance i could carry out?
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: are you selecting the directory
[14:52] <laeg> BananusM: and is that the equivalent of chkdisk?
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> laeg: fsck
[14:52] <ActionParsnip> laeg: boot to recovery root console and unmount all prtitions and check em
[14:53] <dalekleader> ActionParsnips, there is no option to select directory.  It is use what is in the config file
[14:53] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: hmm

[14:55] <dalekleader> ActionParsnips, let me try and re-add it...
[14:55] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: tab complete names, its easier
[14:55] <BananusM> laeg: it it equivalent , for ext filesystems
[14:56] <BananusM> laeg: you can always repatition/reformat whole disk
[14:56] <Photoguy> Quick question, does anybody know of a good channel for help with coding (in general)?
[14:56] <dalekleader> ActionParsnip: never thought of that :)
[14:56] <BananusM> laeg: but the problem my not be with discs at all
[14:56] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: tab is your best friend in linux
[14:57] <BananusM> laeg: what OS are you trying to install ?
[14:57] <wemakeyousoundba> a tab is your best friend anywhere
[14:58] <GNUtoo> hello, I need the following: ubuntu-install that is on usb...and a kernel that boots from my internal hdd...where can I find it? i realy need a live-usb with apt-get
[14:58] <GNUtoo> cause my cd-rom doesn't work anymore...
[14:58] <ActionParsnip> !usb | GNUtoo
[14:59] <gnomez> try to install unetbootin
[14:59] <dalekleader> ActionParsnip: i deleted the printer, now when I add it should i not have a device called cups-pdf?
[14:59] <gnomez> a very good one. sudo apt-get install unetbootin. This will create a live usb
[14:59] <laeg> BananusM: can't repartion and format the whole disk because it has my ubuntu install and media on it :)
[14:59] <laeg> BananusM: ubuntu and media works no problem
[15:00] <laeg> BananusM: anyway, i've a few things to try, thanks for the help
[15:00] <JediMaster> anyone else having issues with gb.archive.ubuntu.com? I've been getting timeouts and transfer rates of 200Bytes/sec or less on a 100Mbps connection, and similar results on a 10Mbps ADSL

[15:01] <bullgard4> ':~$ uname -r; 2.6.24-23-generic'. /boot/config-~generic includes a line CONFIG_SCSI_NETLINK=y. What does 'NETLINK' mean?
[15:01] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: ive never had to manually install it dude, i'd look at some guides
[15:02] <Visdit> hi
[15:02] <dalekleader> ActionParsnip: unfortunately Ubuntu Studio does not add it by default

[15:05] <dalekleader> ActionParsnip: ok, got it added but I get "/usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf failed"
[15:05] <vlt> Photoguy: http://wikisend.com/download/485386/Examples.zip is an html file :/

[15:07] <vlt> Photoguy: ok
[15:07] <alcohol> !rdp
[15:07] <alcohol> :<
[15:08] <maverick340> people keep asking me that , why is linux so virus proof  ? i myself have used it for only over 4 months so i am not very sure of the answer myself. was hoping i could get some links where i could read why
[15:09] <jtaji> !virus | maverick340
[15:09] <maverick340> for one thing i know, linux doesnt autorun and doesnt have any system of executable files
[15:09] <pyfg> but can I have gnome without every possible gnome program?
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> dalekleader: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=188860
[15:09] <maverick340> thanks , you guys are great :-)
[15:09] <ActionParsnip> pyfg: sure
[15:09] <pyfg> does that take lots of typing?
[15:11] <oCean_> alcohol: rdp client?
[15:11] <alcohol> yeah just found gnome-rdp
[15:11] <alcohol> gonne give that a shot
[15:11] <oCean_> !rdesktop | alcohol
[15:11] <oCean_> !info rdesktop | alcohol
[15:12] <GNUtoo> ActionParsnip, there is a problem with this approach...I don't know how to boot from the internal loop file...
[15:12] <pyfg> if i have only gdm installed should login still work fine?
[15:12] <pyfg> im getting errors
[15:12] <oCean_> alcohol: sure, gnome rdp is fine too. (see also Applications > Internet > Term.serv. client)
[15:12] <GNUtoo> ActionParsnip, i need the usb stick formatted as ext3 and use a kernel from the internal hdd...
[15:12] <GNUtoo> ActionParsnip, cause my computer doesns't boot from usb...
[15:13] <GNUtoo> ActionParsnip, and I only want apt-get cause I don't plan to install ubuntu but restore a backup with tar
[15:13] <Arrick> hey, through terminal, how do I tell what user apache2 is using?
[15:13] <Arrick> (I installed using tasksel lamp-server)
[15:13] <GNUtoo> Arrick, mabe ps -aux
[15:13] <pyfg> "only gdm"  = debootstrap + apt-get install gdm
[15:14] <ryanprior> My notification area says "1 file operation active", but that file operation has hung. How can I cancel it?
[15:15] <oCean_> Arrick: the ps command (various options) shows you list of running processes. Try running "ps axuww | grep -i apache" The owner of the process is in first column
[15:15] <Arrick> thanks oCean_
[15:15] <badserii> Hi! I want to see how much time in seconds does it take for w3m to load a page from localhost. Is there a utility that counts duration of execution? Or is it possible for the prompt to show the time when command executed?
[15:15] <GNUtoo> hello? anyone?
[15:16] <Arrick> ok, chown -R www-data /path/tp/dir would be the syntax to change a directory ownership right?
[15:16] <ryanprior> badserii: man time
[15:16] <oCean_> badserii: the "time" command will from cli
[15:16] <GNUtoo> if no-one can help I'll reboot on a livecd on my desktop computer and try to install ubuntu on the usb stick
[15:16] <ryanprior> !patience | GNUtoo
[15:16] <noon> I used $sudo update-rc.d -f rtorrent remove, but it still appears in /etc/init.d/, am I doing something wrong?
[15:16] <GNUtoo> ubottu, I know that...
[15:17] <ryanprior> GNUtoo: Not exactly the bot tip I wanted.
[15:17] <oCean_> Arrick: yes. Depending on desired result it might be necessary to not only change the ownership (user) but group also.. that would be "chown -R apache-www:apache-www /path/to/dir"
[15:17] <badserii> oCean_: thank you!
[15:17] <ryanprior> GNUtoo: I forget which one was the useful one, but you should be patient and ask your question again every 5-10 minutes. People pop in and out of the channel and perseverance will pay off.
[15:18] <GNUtoo> ryanprior, the problem is that I have to restore a backup and it takes time...
[15:18] <ryanprior> GNUtoo: Ubottu is a channel bot, he responded to you because I told him to. :-)
[15:18] <GNUtoo> ryanprior, yes I know
[15:18] <GNUtoo> ryanprior, ah oops I responded to the bot
[15:18] <GNUtoo> sorry
[15:19] <GNUtoo> ryanprior, i'll try what I told...
[15:19] <pyfg> is gnome-session the way if i want no login manager
[15:19] <GNUtoo> i'll be back as soon as i've rebooted
[15:19] <gordonjcp> : What exactly are you trying to do?
[15:19] <GNUtoo> ryanprior, thanks
[15:19] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: What exactly are you trying to do?
[15:20] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, i need to restore a tar backup containing a GNU/Linux system...and for that I need to boot on some livecd with apt inside(need some module and uttilities)
[15:20] <robot_jesus> I have compiz fusion installed but none of the effects are working, how do i check the metacity(?) is not my window manager and make compiz the wm
[15:20] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, but my cdrom doesn't work anymore
[15:20] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, and I can't boot from usb
[15:20] <tyler_d1> so I created a directory /media/SHARE on the client machine, and installed sshfs on the host machine. When I do sshfs user@host:/path/to/mount /media/SHARE on the client machine I am unable to browse to this share ??
[15:20] <ryanprior> GNUtoo: can you grab a friend's CD rom drive?
[15:20] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, but I can copy files to the hdd
[15:20] <GNUtoo> ryanprior, on a laptop?
[15:20] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: so you need to boot a system, to untar another system?
[15:20] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, yes
[15:21] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, I lost my LUKS header so I have to restore my backup
[15:21] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: are you just trying to get at the files in the tarball, or does it need to be a working system?
[15:21] <FRC> what about using the backtrack KDE live cd
[15:21] <ryanprior> GNUtoo: If you're okay with popping your laptop open, you should be able to just plug it into the SATA slot on the hard drive. If your laptop is still under warranty, might wanna think twice about it
[15:21] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, i need the following things: mdadm,cryptsetup and some kernel modules...
[15:21] <noon> I used $sudo update-rc.d -f rtorrent remove, but it still appears in /etc/init.d/, am I doing something wrong?
[15:22] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: why do you need those?
[15:22] <GNUtoo> ryanprior, mmm...i've only one sata cable and 2 hdds
[15:22] <ryanprior> noon: No, that is not wrong.
[15:22] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, cause I encrypt my filesystem
[15:22] <ryanprior> noon: update-rc.d removes it from the startup process, but the scripts are still there in case you want to reinstate them.
[15:22] <Gnea> GNUtoo: do you have a lan?
[15:22] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: okay, does the tarball contain an image of an encrypted filesystem?
[15:22] <noon> ryanprior, i see. is there anywhere to view the startup process?
[15:22] <GNUtoo> Gnea, yes and NFS server where the backup lies
[15:23] <ryanprior> noon: Yes, there is, but I forget what it is offhand. Read the man pages.
[15:23] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, no image of unencrypted system
[15:23] <noon> ryanprior, ok thanks
[15:23] <Gnea> GNUtoo: okay, so why not netboot the laptop from the NFS server?
[15:23] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: okay
[15:23] <paulo39> does skype runs in ubuntu?
[15:23] <ryanprior> paulo39: Yes.
[15:23] <Gnea> !skype | paulo39
[15:23] <GNUtoo> Gnea, is it complicated?
[15:23] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: so what's stopping you just untarring the tarball?
[15:23] <Gnea> GNUtoo: it's a challenge, but not impossible
[15:23] <Gnea> !netboot | GNUtoo
[15:24] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, when I use ubuntu's livecd I can untar a part but at a point the livecd hang with I/O  errors
[15:24] <Necrosan> boobuntu.
[15:24] <fabio123> do you know Bepe Grillo ?
[15:24] <fabio123> Firefox sucks now
[15:24] <Necrosan> Gnea: you sure got the ubottu system down. You are a pro.
[15:24] <GNUtoo> Gnea, thanks a lot
[15:24] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: I'm not sure I understand
[15:24] <paulo39> thanks ppl
[15:24] <fabio123> go here: http://www.beppegrillo.it/
[15:24] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: do you have a working system *at all*?
[15:24] <Gnea> GNUtoo: good luck
[15:24] <fabio123> then select the italian flag
[15:25] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, on the laptop not anymore but I've a Desktop that works
[15:25] <GNUtoo> Gnea, thanks
[15:25] <Gnea> Necrosan: ...
[15:25] <bullgard4> ':~$ uname -r; 2.6.24-23-generic'. /boot/config-~generic includes a line CONFIG_SCSI_NETLINK=y. What does 'NETLINK' mean?
[15:25] <oCean_> fabio123: it's not the site, it's not firefox.. I have no problem at all. Maybe it's your plugins
[15:25] <gordonjcp> GNUtoo: so untar the filesystem on your desktop machine, and get the bits you want out
[15:25] <majnoon> !ot
[15:26] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, the problem is that the tarball is a complete distro backup...so I need all bits
[15:26] <GNUtoo> gordonjcp, ~200GB
[15:27] <fabio123> click on the video : io so
[15:27] <fabio123> your Firefox will crash
[15:27] <fabio123> but go there: http://cdn1.ustream.tv/swf/4/viewer.80.swf?vid=1095107 and everything is fine
[15:27] <oCean_> fabio123: no, not here. The problem is in your plugins
[15:28] <GNUtoo> thanks a lot I'll reboot my desktop on a livecd and I'll be back
[15:28] <fabio123> i have only the flash plugin installed
[15:28] <GNUtoo> soon
[15:28] <ryanprior> My notification area says "1 file operation active", but that file operation has hung. How can I cancel it?
[15:29] <oCean_> fabio123: there are many flash plugins
[15:29] <fosco_> ryanakca: alt+f2 and type killall -1 nautilus (make sure there are no other file operations)
[15:29] <fabio123> ii  flashplugin-nonfree           <IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu1
[15:29] <Necrosan> With the alternate install cd (8.10) is there any way I can install from the net with it?
[15:29] <danishjordan> Necrosan: No.
[15:30] <Necrosan> CD drive is flakey in the machine, and startup-tasks reports to be bad every time it tries to copy it.
[15:30] <Necrosan> That's pretty lame.
[15:30] <danishjordan> Necrosan: Try finding a way to do it from a USB flash drive.
[15:30] <ryanprior> Necrosan: does checking the disc integrity show a positive result?
[15:31] <oCean_> fabio123: I use that too. See "ls -al /etc/alternatives/firefox-flashplugin" if it actually points to the /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[15:31] <fabio123> yes.
[15:31] <fabio123> your browser will crash: try this www.tim.it
[15:32] <oCean_> fabio123: no it does NOT crash
[15:32] <Photoguy> fabio123 not me
[15:32] <ferdostar> Hi guys, I have one question: is it possible that xorg change after every restart. In other words is xorg changing after restart or it's constant until we changed it?
[15:33] <Necrosan> danishjordan: it's a sparc system
[15:33] <fabio123> so i'm the only one.
[15:33] <Necrosan> ryanprior: disc is fine
[15:33] <nbuntu> hey - could someone  help me with gnome-do?
[15:33] <Jack_Sparrow> ferdostar xorg will change to failsafe if there is a problem
[15:33] <Necrosan> the drive is a piece of crap. Never have I owned a good SCSI cdrom.
[15:33] <Necrosan> All of them suck.
[15:33] <ferdostar> Jack_Sparrow thanks :)
[15:33] <nbuntu> hey
[15:34] <nbuntu> gnome-do no longer finds my apps after it was recently upgraded - anyone know why?
[15:35] <Mood> does ubuntu use a date server to set the time by default?
[15:35] <jim_p> hi people
[15:35] <Photoguy> Hi
[15:35] <fosco_> Mood: no
[15:35] <Mood> fosco_: it just grabs the local system time?
[15:35] <fosco_> yes
[15:36] <jim_p> how can i convert a number of html files to pdf ones? ooo writer can do it with export function, but it will take me a month to do it for ~50-60 html files
[15:36] <Mood> fosco_: what's the protocol to connect to time servers?
[15:36] <jim_p> Mood, ntp ?
[15:36] <Mood> yup
[15:37] <Guest26912> i had hardy and updatedd to gutsy but it's not telling me i can upgrade to intrepid ???????
[15:38] <JediMaster> Guest26912: I'm guessing that's because it was a LTS release
[15:38] <Guest26912> my other workstation asked me to upgrade fine
[15:38] <johny> I'm johny now
[15:38] <Matic> Hi all, who can explain this:(Reading database ... dpkg: error processing libapache2-mod-geoip (--remove):
[15:38] <Matic>  files list file for package `libapache2-mod-random' contains empty filename

[15:38] <keystr0k> is there a PDF viewer for ubuntu that lets you add comments, bookmarks, etc. ?
[15:39] <ari_stress> jim_p: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-convert-chm-files-to-html-or-pdf-files.html
[15:39] <Mood> keystr0k: doesn't ghostview do that?
[15:39] <keystr0k> Mood, ghostview? never heard of it.
[15:39] <jim_p> ari_stress, let me look, although i know mine are html TO pdf
[15:39] <JediMaster> Guest26912: hmm yeah, my bad it was Hardy that was LTS
[15:39] <oCean_> jim_p: think there is a cli app html2ps. So plain solution is to create a for loop (for all files) then "html2ps file.html file.ps" && "ps2pdf file.ps file.pdf"
[15:40] <paulo39> which is the command for adding repositorys?
[15:40] <ryanprior> My notification area says "1 file operation active", but that file operation has hung. How can I cancel it?
[15:40] <jim_p> oCean_, is there ps2pdf?!?!
[15:40] <oCean_> jim_p: I have it :)
[15:40] <lstarnes> paulo39: you have to manually edit /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:40] <ari_stress> jim_p: yes, it also offers html to pdf
[15:40] <ryanprior> jim_p: There is indeed ps2pdf
[15:41] <igordcard> hey, is there any quick way to disable pidgin's integration with ubuntu gnome?
[15:41] <johny> so how do i tell it to upgrade to intrepid ?
[15:41] <johny> igordcard: that works through dbus so probably disable dbus in pidgin would work
[15:41] <ryanprior> jim_p: you'll want something like `ls | grep html | xargs html2ps && ls | grep .ps | xargs ps2pdf && rm *.ps`
[15:41] <oCean_> jim_p: I have ps2pdf from package "ghostscript" , in that package is not a html2pdf
[15:42] <Guest59465> hi all
[15:42] <jim_p> thanks ari_stress , oCean_, ryanprior . i also found htmldoc

[15:48] <GNUtoo> then I'll copy the kernel on the same partition that grub use and boot from the usb stick...I hope it will work(does it need any kernel parameter? for instance to  wait for usb  before mounting rootfs?)
[15:48] <Dgrillo> Hi, well  i used xrandr to configurate  2 extended monitors,  and i made it, but  the main screen appears in the wrong monitor..... any advice?

[15:54] <oCean_> jim_p: sure. Converting completed?
[15:54] <GNUtoo> I think I'll use rootdelay
[15:54] <GNUtoo> or use the initrd
[15:54] <padhu> noon: You can use manual mounting. What is the file system type?
[15:55] <jim_p> oCean_, no not yet, i am fine tuning pdf options
[15:55] <noon> padhu, i want it to apply each time i login/startup. the fs is ext3
[15:55] <Richard_> .
[15:56] <padhu> noon: use " sudo mount -o rw /dev/sdaX /mnt"
[15:56] <Necrosan> OK, doing a sparc install
[15:56] <Necrosan> base system installed correctly finally, but there is a bad package that made its way on to the alt cd.
[15:57] <Necrosan> AFAIK, the system should boot once a boot loader is installed now. Problem is, I select "install silo boot loader" and it sits indefinitely
[15:57] <padhu> Noon: You can make an script for this also
[15:57] <Necrosan> It wants me to answer yes according to the install log, but i can't
[15:57] <Necrosan> ALT+F4 accepts NO input
[15:57] <Necrosan> Any way I can interact with silo?
[15:58] <Necrosan> Possible to chroot during install?

[16:15] <Serge3> hi
[16:16] <oCean_> !hi | Serge3
[16:16] <Serge3> how to change mac address ? ifconfig eth0 hw ether address ?
[16:16] <erUSUL> Serge3: yes iirc
[16:16] <st> (topic
[16:17] <st> is there a channel for wine
[16:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !wine
[16:17] <Serge3> why ubuntu reset address to the default eth0 address on system restart?!
[16:17] <Serge3> i mean mac address, is reseted on restart
[16:17] <gunjesh> I HAVE SOME PROBLEMS IN WINE
[16:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !caps > gunjesh
[16:18] <erUSUL> Serge3: becouse the MAC adress is something that is hardwired on every nic and you have to change it every reboot
[16:18] <arcsky> Ist hard to make a .deb file?
[16:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !packaging
[16:18] <Serge3> erUSUL it is possible to change it permanently??
[16:18] <n_nick> hi .. i installed xchat but now 2 xchats are coming
[16:19] <Droopsta915> Sorry, I got disconnected. My problem is im trying to add an applet to the panel, the address book search. it gives me an error )Error Accessing Address Book.
[16:19] <erUSUL> Serge3: no it comes in ROM on most nics just put the change in some boot script like /etc/rc.local
[16:19] <hatter243> Serge3, you can change your mac by editing your /etc/network/interfaces file
[16:19] <Serge3> and when i change the mac address, and turn up eth0, why i don't have the network connection ??
[16:20] <Serge3> ifconfig up eth0
[16:20] <bullgard4> Ubuntu 8.04.2 uses nm-applet 0.6.6. Since Ubuntu 8.04 release date NetworkManager has been much improved. Can I expect that Ubuntu will provide a NetworkManager package version >= 0.7 for Hardy?;3C
[16:20] <spider> hi
[16:20] <erUSUL> Serge3: you need more than that to fully configure a net connection
[16:20] <Serge3> hatter243 yeeaa? by what command intersting?)
[16:20] <hatter243> http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/change-your-network-card-mac-address-on-ubuntu/

[16:21] <n_nick> so which one is for wht
[16:21] <Serge3> erUSUL i setted this already and was needed to change the mac
[16:21] <Serge3> =]
[16:21] <erUSUL> Serge3: the best way to do all of this automatically is to use /etc/network/interfaces
[16:21] <erUSUL> Serge3: man interfaces
[16:21] <thedoor> join#drupal-br
[16:22] <erUSUL> Serge3: or just use network manager
[16:22] <Serge3> erUSUL but nameserver to put in /etc/resolv.conf ?
[16:22] <erUSUL> Serge3: system>preferences>Network config
[16:22] <calipso> olá
[16:22] <erUSUL> Serge3: no in interfaces you can put the nameservers too

[16:47] <Necrosan> wow, ubuntu-sparc cds are so broken its not even funny
[16:47] <Necrosan> Hopefully the packages aren't in as rough of shape as the cd.
[16:48] <gordonjcp> ackbahr: and the main superblock has been overwritten?
[16:48] <Hillshum> What are the temporary folders in Intrepid?
[16:48] <adiab> jonan12: in my menu under the wifi network I am connected to there is a disconnect menu item, failing that, it will not hurt if you turn it off completly, it will still work
[16:48] <ackbahr> gordonjcp: I guess so : I had troubles restoring a clone with clonezilla (bad restoration).....
[16:49] <Hillshum> mib_kpoj8x, From a compatibility viewpoint it won't matter. Anything else is offtopic here.
[16:49] <onthefence928> i just upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 and now my media keys (play/pause, next track, stop etc.) stopped working, how do i make sure that they work again?
[16:50] <laeg> will switching my bios mode into IDE/SATA compatibility temporarily b0rk my ubuntu?
[16:50] <devhelp> Hi -- is the ATK (Accessibility Toolkit) the official Linux Accessibility API?
[16:50] <hipy`> hi
[16:50] <hipy`> =D
[16:51] <hipy`> i got eeebuntu ^^
[16:51] <kouya> where is Firefox extensions stored in Ubuntu (what folder)?
[16:51] <Blah78> Hi, I need to use framebuffer but can't find /dev/fb0 in my ubuntu-server installation under vmware... anyone?
[16:51] <hipy`> :o
[16:52] <hipy`> what do you like more kubuntu or ubuntu
[16:52] <hipy`> i like the new gnome
[16:52] <hipy`> kde*
[16:52] <bazhang> hipy`, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[16:52] <biouser> hipy` gnome
[16:52] <hipy`> ok srry
[16:52] <ackbahr> gordonjcp: So I'm doomed, I guess?
[16:53] <biouser> jaunty is almost really good!  Hopefully the sound system will be impressive by the release date :)
[16:53] <gordonjcp> ackbahr: you may be able to extract something by examining the partition
[16:53] <Matic> kouya, check here - /usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions/
[16:53] <gordonjcp> ackbahr: you could look for the headers that mark the start of each file
[16:53] <gordonjcp> ackbahr: it's a PITA and very time-consuming
[16:54] <ackbahr> gordonjcp: No automated process? I'm trying this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery#Extract%20filesystem%20from%20recovered%20image
[16:54] <fluitfries_> can anyone help me remove an applet from the panel for all user accounts, even new ones?  i've tried a few of the suggestions with gconf on the forums but nothing seems to be working.  thanks!
[16:56] <topolino> ciao
[16:56] <gordonjcp> ackbahr: didn't know about that - every day's a school day
[16:56] <RPS> Hello guys, I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 and I'm trying to find a way to run itunes from within ubuntu. I had someone mention using vmware, but they didn;t give me any more details. Would someone be polite enough to tell me what the guy was talking about?
[16:57] <bazhang> RPS, wine will do it but very very slow
[16:57] <william_> any idea why my sources.list files is so small. it only includes deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu intrepid main
[16:57] <RPS> is vmware another way of saying wine?
[16:57] <bazhang> RPS, no
[16:57] <bazhang> !wine | RPS
[16:57] <Jeruvy> RPS: wine is an emulation, vmware is a virtual machine.
[16:59] <lazarus_lupine> do you need itunes? There are a lot of native linux apps that handle iPods beautifully
[16:59] <RPS> thank you Jeruvy  ....virtual machine sounds like what might be a vague google search ...any place I need to narrow my search
[16:59] <RPS> I have an ipod Touch, so I have to use itunes
[16:59] <RPS> or at least that is what all the apple channels here on freenode say
[17:00] <lazarus_lupine> 1st or 2nd gen?
[17:01] <RPS> 2nd gen
[17:01] <kouya> thanks Matic!
[17:01] <kouya> :)
[17:01] <Hillshum> !virtualbox
[17:01] <hatter243> RPS, amarok, rhythmbox, banshee, gtkPod
[17:01] <hatter243> RPS, all of those will manage your iPod
[17:02] <lazarus_lupine> from what I can see, looks like the only workaround is to jailbreak and use ssh, and I don't think the 2nd gen is hacked yet
[17:02] <RPS> hatter243, they say it will not sync a 2nd gen
[17:02] <lazarus_lupine> http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2008/04/21/wirelessly-sync-an-iphone-or-ipod-touch-with-ubuntu/
[17:02] <RPS> thank you lazarus_lupine
[17:02] <lazarus_lupine> old article but could be of help
[17:02] <lazarus_lupine> np
[17:03] <RPS> Hmmm if its too old it might not address my 2nd gen
[17:03] <lazarus_lupine> exactly
[17:03] <RPS> what about the virtual machine? Where do I start?
[17:03] <lazarus_lupine> I would poke around and see what else can be found
[17:04] <stryd_one> hi all
[17:04] <Ego86> hi
[17:04] <Jeruvy> !vmware > RPS
[17:04] <lazarus_lupine> basically pick one (Vmware,Virtualbox,etc) , install it, and then install windows into it
[17:04] <Ego86> hey, i want same screenlet as in this picture: http://www.linuxbox.co.nz/goblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/folderview-comments.png
[17:04] <Hillshum> VMWare is proprietary, virtualbox can be found in the repos, but a freebeer one is at virtualbox.org

[17:04] <Ego86> i don't flood
[17:04] <stryd_one> is anyone fairly informed about the state of cd/dvd burning in ubuntu who can shell out some advice? Would be appreciated... I'm a bit lost.
[17:05] <stryd_one> stoopid bots
[17:05] <stryd_one> hehehe
[17:05] <Ego86> does exist any folderview screenlet for gnome?
[17:06] <Ego86> or any similar as in kde4
[17:07] <histo> Ego86, what do you mean?
[17:07] <savvas> Ego86: the only one I know of is "Places" in screenlets package
[17:07] <savvas> it contains bookmarks of important folders
[17:08] <RPS> I have VirtualBox OSE already installed on this ubuntu machine,but I zero clue of where to start. It's so tough being an ignorant, smart person. .LOL
[17:08] <Ego86> yes i know, but with something better
[17:08] <Ego86> histo: http://www.linuxbox.co.nz/goblog/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/folderview-comments.png
[17:08] <RPS> I also have VBoxGtk installed as well
[17:08] <emendo> Need help with ubuntu 8.10 on a dell.  I have a headset plugged into the mic jack and I cannot get audacity to record. The internal mics work well though. Any help?

[17:11] <ALEKSEY> Connect to me Counter-Strike 1.6 <IP_ADDRESS>:27015
[17:12] <stryd_one> matic: furthermore there seem to be issues with wodim in burning the media i need to burn
[17:12] <Ceriand> What package did they hide the firmware for the kernel modules in Intrepid?
[17:12] <stryd_one> and furthermore the wodim package screws up the original cdrecord bin if I install it manually
[17:12] <AndreasMadrid> if i delete a directory with rm -R  there's no way to undo that afterwards, like a trash can or something like this, is there?
[17:13] <Mariop> DIOS SANTO
[17:13] <egns> :)
[17:13] <Ceriand> before it was in linux-ubuntu-modules

[17:14] <famous> my monitor refresh rate is at 50 hz, and i want to get it up to 60 at least, and i have nvidia installed, is editing the X11/xorg.conf file enough to fix it?
[17:14] <Mariop> ok, sorry, but Alzombie and egns can understand me
[17:15] <Mariop> the messages are for they
[17:15] <bazhang> Mariop, #ubuntu-es
[17:15] <emendo> Need help with ubuntu 8.10 on a dell.  I have a headset plugged into the mic jack and I cannot get audacity to record. The internal mics work well though. Any help? I have tried the audacity forums but to no avail.

[17:15] <fluitfries_> can anyone help me remove an applet from the panel for all user accounts, even new ones?  i've tried a few of the suggestions with gconf on the forums but nothing seems to be working.  thanks!

[17:15] <karamazov> hello
[17:15] <stryd_one> matic: need to do mixed mode, cd-extra, vcd, dvd, DAO
[17:15] <karamazov> how do i check if openssh is running?
[17:15] <savvas> Ceriand: which module are you trying to find?
[17:16] <savvas> karamazov: the server or the client?
[17:16] <Ceriand> savvas: it's not a module but the firmware for a device that a module supports
[17:16] <karamazov> savvas: the server
[17:16] <karamazov> savvas: i have to write a script that checks if sshd is running and if not, starts it
[17:16] <Ceriand> savvas: keyspan/usa19qw.fw to be precise
[17:17] <Matic> stryd_one, well you need to research more on this coz I do not think linux has gone that far but am not sure just keep researching and am sure will find a solution
[17:17] <stryd_one> well linux has gone that far
[17:17] <stryd_one> cdrtools does it all fine
[17:17] <savvas> karamazov: perhaps through netstat? netstat -ln -t tcp
[17:17] <stryd_one> but ubuntu has a dummy spit on cdrtools, because of the wodim package
[17:18] <savvas> Ceriand: ah, you're looking for the source of the modules then?
[17:19] <Ceriand> savvas: no, just the binary .fw file
[17:19] <Ceriand> savvas: it should be in linux-firmware but it's not
[17:20] <axisr9> if i have two files ONE.TXT and TWO.TXT -- and ONE.TXT contains a list of numbers from 50 to 60.. each number on a new line.. and then TWO.TXT contains a list of numbers from 80 to 90, each number on a new line...... how can i basically read one line from one.txt, then read one line from TWO.TXT and so forth? with the bash shell.. anyone know?
[17:20] <killerboy> how can i change theme i ubuntu?
[17:21] <savvas> Ceriand: what release were you using when you saw this?
[17:21] <Ceriand> savvas: 8.10
[17:22] <Ceriand> savvas: it worked fine with 8.04
[17:22] <d0netsFN> hey what kinda speeds do you guys get from the repositories?

[17:22] <d0netsFN> any idea why mine is so slow?
[17:22] <Ceriand> savvas: i'm currently using 2.6.27-9-generic as my kernel
[17:22] <phobos_anomaly> anyone know if they have fixed the xorg problem with closed source nvidia drivers in the alpha of 9.04 yet?
[17:22] <roxan> killbillkill: right click on your desktop and click properties
[17:22] <stryd_one> i'm in .au on adsl2+
[17:22] <roxan> d0netsFN: it depends on the mirror choosen
[17:22] <d0netsFN> i mean i can download at like 100 kb / sec
[17:22] <savvas> Ceriand: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=usa19&mode=filename&suite=intrepid&arch=any say it's in linux-headers-2.6.25-2-386
[17:22] <d0netsFN> 1100*
[17:23] <d0netsFN> but i only get 40
[17:23] <bahaa2008> i cann't mount dmg file
[17:23] <d0netsFN> it took me 40 minutes to install yakuake yesterday
[17:23] <d0netsFN> its a simple pop down terminal
[17:23] <AndreasMadrid> hi
[17:23] <stryd_one> d0netsFN, roxan is right, try a different mirror
[17:23] <bahaa2008> file filename.dmg gives "VAX COFF executable not stripped - version 376"
[17:23] <d0netsFN> how do i do that?
[17:23] <AndreasMadrid> is there a way to undo rm -R?
[17:23] <AndreasMadrid> like a trah can?
[17:23] <AndreasMadrid> trash*
[17:24] <stryd_one> andatche, restore from your backups
[17:24] <stryd_one> AndreasMadrid, *
[17:24] <roxan> AndreasMadrid: i'm afraid no.
[17:24] <bahaa2008> anyone can help
[17:24] <roxan> not*
[17:24] <AndreasMadrid> i have no backups
[17:24] <AndreasMadrid> ok, :-(
[17:24] <AndreasMadrid> thanx for the quick answer, roxan
[17:24] <d0netsFN> stryd_one how do i use a different mirror
[17:24] <stryd_one> rule of backups: If it doesn't exist in three places, it doesn't exist.
[17:25] <roxan> d0netsFN: go to system administrations software source
[17:25] <The_Tourist> #ubuntu-offtopic
[17:25] <Ceriand> savvas: i'll just get the source and compile it myself i guess
[17:25] <Ceriand> savvas: thanks for the help
[17:26] <d0netsFN> oh wtf it was set to canada
[17:26] <ubuntunoob2003> Can anyone assist me with a wireless issue?
[17:26] <d0netsFN> as much as i would love to be a canadian, i aint
[17:26] <roxan> !ask | ubuntunoob2003
[17:26] <karamazov> can anyone assist me with a sshd issue?
[17:27] <DEA7H> If i were the proprietary ATi drivers in the Ubuntu repository, what would i be called?
[17:27] <somethingtodo> AndreasMadrid:  It's possible, but only if the space on disk has not been overwritten with new files.  When linux deltes stuff, it doesn't kill the data, it just makes the file not show in the directory anymore.     You can google it, but here is one page that talks about it.   It's not easy.   http://adminlinux.blogspot.com/2006/09/recover-from-rm.html
[17:27] <karamazov> is this an effective way of testing if ssh server is running: " 'ssh localhost' and see if it can connect? " ?
[17:27] <Foxkeh> how do you play wormux over a network?

[17:28] <lampliter> bastidrazor: thanks

[17:29] <ethana2> bahaa2008: is .dmg a disc image?
[17:29] <ethana2> I always thought of it like a .deb
[17:30] <AndreasMadrid> somethingtodo: thank you for your help. I will try out what's said on that site
[17:30] <bahaa2008> ethana2, yes
[17:30] <Foxkeh> How do you play Wormux over a network?
[17:30] <bahaa2008> ethana2, mac disk image
[17:30] <AndreasMadrid> if it doesn't work, I'll simply have to live with it
[17:30] <Foxkeh> Nevermind, google is better...
[17:30] <ethana2> bahaa2008: can brasero burn them?
[17:30] <AndreasMadrid> thank you
[17:30] <ubuntunoob2003> Is there a way to filter Sign on's / off notifications ?
[17:30] <bahaa2008> ethana2, how do i know that
[17:30] <ethana2> bahaa2008: I don't know
[17:30] <ethana2> but I have one I need to burn
[17:30] <ethana2> and the only OS I have, at all, is Ubuntu
[17:31] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; http://baghira.sourceforge.net/dmg.htm  :: or look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=125526 ... and yes brasero or k3b can burn a dmg
[17:31] <AndreasMadrid> bye folks
[17:31] <ethana2> bastidrazor: sweeet, thanks
[17:31] <bahaa2008> ethana2, you have same problem like me ?
[17:31] <andrew__> can someone help me
[17:32] <Loganhoup> For some reason when I minimize things to tray I cannot see the icon in the tray or re-open it. When I try to restart the program it says it is already running. Could someone please help me with this?
[17:32] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, i tried all the pages that you will find throw web search
[17:32] <bastidrazor> ethana2; you may need the ubuntu-restricted-extras in order for that to burn if you haven't installed them
[17:32] <ethana2> bastidrazor: k
[17:32] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, i tried dmg2iso
[17:33] <nightrid3r> !ask | andrew__
[17:33] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; what does the dmg contain?
[17:33] <ethana2> does .iso support HFS?
[17:33] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, i tried direct mount
[17:33] <andrew__> my display res settings r limited the highest i can go is 800x600 how can i change it
[17:33] <MethinX> Could anyone help me locate an AutoCad type program for ubuntu?
[17:33] <ubuntunoob2003> I currently have my wlan0 interface set as Ad-Hoc mode, I have what I think to be the proper configurations applied to have the interface come up, but it is not. It currently shows that I do not have a cell association. Any ideas?
[17:33] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, macosx-leopard
[17:33] <ethana2> bahaa2008: oh boy, here we go
[17:33] <Loganhoup> For some reason when I minimize things to tray I cannot see the icon in the tray or re-open it. When I try to restart the program it says it is already running. Could someone please help me with this?
[17:34] <ethana2> (I'm doing the exact same thing for my new eMac, wiped the OS trying to install Ubuntu..)
[17:34] <bazhang> bahaa2008, that is not supported here
[17:34] <ethana2> turns out they left the scsi drivers off the 8.10 disc
[17:34] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; it would suite you better to burn it then mount.
[17:34] <bahaa2008> bazhang, i don't take avou it
[17:34] <bahaa2008> about
[17:34] <stryd_one> bastidrazor, sorry to bug you but youk seem to know about this area.... i don't suppose you're up to speed on what to do with cdrtools vs cdrkit and all that?
[17:35] <Loganhoup> For some reason when I minimize things to tray I cannot see the icon in the tray or re-open it. When I try to restart the program it says it is already running. Could someone please help me with this?
[17:35] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, how to burn it
[17:35] <bastidrazor> stryd_one; sorry, i've never used either.
[17:35] <ethana2> well you have to mount it to remove the lang packs and printer drivers
[17:35] <ethana2> to fit it on a single layer DVD
[17:35] <stryd_one> bastid: what do you burn with?
[17:35] <somethingtodo> MethinX:  I've never seen any decent CAD program for linux, sorry..... there are some basic ones though:   http://tldp.org/LDP/LGNET/issue54/frost.html
[17:35] <ubuntunoob2003> I am trying to set up an Ad-Hoc network, I currently have my interface up and running, however it is not broadcasting my SSID.. it appears to not have a Cell associated, any ideas of why this would happen?
[17:35] <bastidrazor> stryd_one; k3b, i like k3b over brasero even though i use ubuntu verse kubuntu.
[17:35] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, do u mean using brasero
[17:35] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; yes.
[17:36] <stryd_one> k3b is using these tools in the back end
[17:36] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, but if not supported
[17:36] <stryd_one> yeh i like k3b too... shame there's no gtk app with it's features
[17:36] <bastidrazor> stryd_one; kubuntu-restricted-extras and k3b serve me very well
[17:36] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, what i should do ?
[17:37] <stryd_one> thx bastidrazor
[17:37] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; a better google search since dmg is unsupported
[17:37] <Loganhoup> For some reason when I minimize things to tray I cannot see the icon in the tray or re-open it. When I try to restart the program it says it is already running. Could someone please help me with this?This gives me big problems with programs like amarok that start minmized to the tray.
[17:37] <bastidrazor> stryd_one; glad i could help even though i didn't really :)
[17:37] <stryd_one> i am beginning to get the feeling I am "asking a question with no answer, grasshopper" :D
[17:38] <Loganhoup> For some reason when I minimize things to tray I cannot see the icon in the tray or re-open it. When I try to restart the program it says it is already running. Could someone please help me with this?
[17:38] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, i tried all solutions i found
[17:38] <e-colin> !list
[17:38] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; i can burn dmg's with k3b. i would assume brasero can with the properly installed dependencies
[17:38] <stryd_one> logan: does it happen with all apps that can minimise to tray?
[17:38] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, no one works
[17:38] <Loganhoup> yes
[17:38] <ubuntunoob2003> I am trying to set up an Ad-Hoc network, I currently have my interface up and running, however it is not broadcasting my SSID.. it appears to not have a Cell associated, any ideas of why this would happen?
[17:38] <Loganhoup> transmission, amarok
[17:39] <Loganhoup> everything
[17:39] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, how to check ability to burn dmg
[17:39] <stryd_one> logan: are the apps still responsive? like does amarok keep playing?
[17:39] <Loganhoup> yes.
[17:39] <Loganhoup> transmission even keeps downloading
[17:39] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, cuz dual layer dvds is not cheep :)
[17:40] <stryd_one> perhaps you have removed the tray from gnome?
[17:40] <Loganhoup> in order to see it again I have to kill it and restart it
[17:40] <BLZ> how can i autostart transmission when i log in?
[17:40] <bullgard4> man ifconfig: "If no arguments are given, ifconfig displays the status of the currently active interfaces. My IBM T42 lists an interface 'ath0' but why does this interface have no internet address?
[17:40] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; brasero will tell you when you attempt to burn before it does anything that is won't or it will simply burn and you have your dmg on disc

[17:40] <Loganhoup> I did recently delete my top panel on accident
[17:40] <efaistos> hi
[17:40] <frg22> when I kill firefox, system sound stops working all round. Any ideas on how to get it working again without having tor estart?
[17:41] <LMJ> bullgard4 : that's your wifi card, if it doesn't have any IP address that means nobody assign it...
[17:41] <stryd_one> frg which version?
[17:41] <stryd_one> of ubuntu, that is...
[17:41] <BLZ> stryd_one:  thanks.  what's the command?  is it just "trasmission" ?
[17:41] <BLZ> *transmission, even
[17:41] <ubuntunoob2003> Does anyone have any idea's of why my Ad-hoc network which shows its interface as up is not broadcasting the essid that I have assigned it?
[17:41] <frg22> stryd_one: 8.10
[17:41] <stryd_one> blz: dunno, look in the menu editor to find out what the icon does: System..Preferences... Main Menu
[17:41] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, i tried it with normal dvd but it tells me not enough space is this means that it will did it ?
[17:41] <efaistos> little question i updated from gutsy to intrepid and everything almost works except the new kernel ... when i boot it goes to busybox and thats all
[17:41] <efaistos> :(
[17:41] <efaistos> any idea ?
[17:42] <bullgard4> LMJ: No, my wifi card has got the interface 'wifi0'.
[17:42] <bullgard4> LMJ: No, my wifi card has got the interface name 'wifi0'.
[17:42] <stryd_one> frg22, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578
[17:42] <Loganhoup> stryd, if I did delete how would I get it back
[17:42] <Loganhoup> I don't know of a panel widget for it
[17:42] <bastidrazor> bahaa2008; that means you don't have enough space, i would assume it will burn to a dual layer. that is my assumption though.
[17:42] <kwesi> hi
[17:42] <kwesi> need answers
[17:42] <LMJ> wifi0 is an emulated wireless card, ath0 is the real one
[17:43] <kwesi> why cant i install software whiles using synaptic manager
[17:43] <omnomnOMINOUS> Hi everyone! My laptop is going into a hard freeze whenever I try to connect to my university's secure wireless network. It works for a while (on the order of 5-15 minutes), but inevitably something starts using 100% CPU (according to top, I think the processes were dd, syslogd, and one other one). Soon afterwards, my computer freezes completely, and I'm forced to hold down the power button. :( Can anyone help me?
[17:43] <frg22> styrd_one: thanks, I will review that

[17:44] <pluma> How do I create custom keyboard maps in Intrepid? This seems to have changed since 7.10
[17:44] <bullgard4> LMJ: If ath0 is the real wireless card, why do I need an emulated one in addition?
[17:44] <efaistos> nobody ?
[17:45] <Loganhoup> For some reason when I minimize things to tray I cannot see the icon in the tray or re-open it. When I try to restart the program it says it is already running. Could someone please help me with this?
[17:45] <stryd_one> logan: right-click the panel, chooes add to panel, ... uhm... it's one of those ?
[17:45] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, hope that will work
[17:45] <Loganhoup> I guess but which one
[17:45] <stryd_one> Loganhoup, it's also possible you've just resized it down to nothing
[17:45] <Loganhoup> I dont know how
[17:46] <bahaa2008> bastidrazor, dvd dual layer costs my $1.5
[17:46] <bahaa2008> :)
[17:46] <Loganhoup> if its one of the panel widgets which one
[17:46] <stryd_one> if you rightclick...move, then you can slide the trays around
[17:46] <stryd_one> i dunno which one mate... google it?
[17:46] <Loganhoup> I always thought it did it by default
[17:46] <xfm> hello, Im on ubuntu 8.10, with firefox. I have installed adobe-flashplugin, but the test on the official webpage of adobe (http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome/) doesn't work... maybe a link problem? PLease help me. thank you
[17:47] <xfm> and if I do about:plugins in firefox, I do not see flash
[17:47] <Silenx> da e per
[17:47] <stryd_one> xfm: i had to install the plugin manually in synaptic
[17:47] <pluma> Loganhoup: do you mean the Notification area (for stuff like kopete, gaim etc as icons) or the Window List (task bar)?
[17:47] <Loganhoup> I would figure
[17:47] <giacomo_c> how do i go about opening ports with iptables?
[17:47] <Silenx> aptitute install flashplugin
[17:47] <Loganhoup> upper right hand corner
[17:47] <glymph> xfm: it's called flashplugin-nonfree now
[17:47] <Silenx> for mozilla flash player
[17:48] <Loganhoup> is where its icon would normally show pluma
[17:48] <stryd_one> when i had tried to install it via the browser it wouldn't behave... i had to do a 'complete removal', then reinstall... and do it with FF closed!
[17:48] <Loganhoup> but it doesnt
[17:48] <padhu> somethingtodo: what about QCAD?
[17:48] <stryd_one> pluma: it seems he means the notification area
[17:48] <pluma> Loganhoup: talking Windows XP -- do you mean the bit with the rectangular boxes with the icon and name or the bit next to the system time with just icons in it?
[17:49] <xfm> glymph: are you sure: I thought the version 9 was called flashplugin-nonfree and the version 10 adobe-flashplugin
[17:49] <Loganhoup> I'm talking ubuntu intrepid ibex 8.10
[17:49] <pluma> Loganhoup: I know. I'm talking about what it would look like in WinXP
[17:49] <giacomo_c> and is ubuntuforums.org down?  or gone?
[17:49] <glymph> ah, good point xfm - in that case I don't know
[17:50] <Loganhoup> I've got my time in a panel in the upperright hand corner
[17:50] <pluma> Loganhoup: As I don't have the default layout for Ubuntu memorised
[17:50] <Loganhoup> next to it is my volume and network manager
[17:50] <CompactDstrxion> xfm are you on amd64?
[17:50] <stryd_one> xfm: you are correct about the version
[17:50] <Loganhoup> next to it is profile switcher
[17:50] <xfm> CompactDstrxion: no, 32
[17:50] <xfm> stryd_one: thanks
[17:50] <pluma> Loganhoup: Right. I'll just throw a guess and assume you mean the Notification area then. Right-click an empty spot on the panel, select "Add to Panel..." and then add the Notification Area.
[17:51] <stryd_one> xfm: define "doesn't work" anyway :)
[17:51] <Loganhoup> thank you

[17:53] <bullgard4> man ifconfig: "If no arguments are given, ifconfig displays the status of the currently active interfaces. My IBM T42 lists an interface 'ath0' but why does this interface have no internet address?

[17:53] <Gtwy> mmm4m5m: badddd idea
[17:53] <stryd_one> kwesi: error message?
[17:53] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: because one might not be set up on it
[17:53] <Gtwy> mmm4m5m: i would only convert if you could back up the data first, but if you are going to back up the data you may as well back it up , create a new ext3 partition and then bring the data back
[17:53] <ActionParsnip> is there an email client that can store emails from an account on the local system from a google account (webmail spec) but has a web interface for send / reading etc etc. so the emails are pulled down in the normal way (polling every now and again) but i'd love a web interface to teh stored mails, is that possible
[17:53] <stryd_one> anyone here know about cdrtools/cdrkit/cdrecord/wodim?
[17:53] <Gtwy> mmm4m5m: cause you WILL lose data if you convert
[17:53] <gordonjcp> kwesi: you use synaptic to install software
[17:53] <mmm4m5m> Gtwy: if I am able to defragment and resize, then I will create a second ext3 partition and it will be easy and safe
[17:54] <gordonjcp> kwesi: are you trying to use something like apt-get at the same time as synaptic?
[17:54] <kwesi> tells me something else is running
[17:54] <Gtwy> mmm4m5m: oh you want to create a seperate ext3 partition
[17:54] <Gtwy> mmm4m5m: partition magic is a windows app that you can use
[17:54] <Gtwy> mmm4m5m: costs money though
[17:54] <gordonjcp> kwesi: what exactly are you doing when you get the error?
[17:54] <Gtwy> mmm4m5m: there isnt going to be anything open source to do that which is dependable, youd end up losing your data
[17:54] <pluma> Where does Intrepid look for its keyboard mappings? I know it's got to be in SOME X11 conf file, but I have no idea where and some of them seem redundant.
[17:54] <bullgard4> gordonjcp: I do not know the phrase: "to be set up on sth." Please rephrase your answer so that I can understand it.
[17:54] <mmm4m5m> Gtwy: I have two options: install windows or use TrueImage trial (as far I know, it is bootable life CD)
[17:55] <mothersunion> hello
[17:55] <stryd_one> mmm4m5m, that is pure madness, don't do it.
[17:55] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: I don't know what you're asking
[17:55] <xfm> stryd_one, CompactDstrxion: ok, I installed version 9, removed it, and now the previous installed version 10 works... I think there was a broken link...
[17:55] <stryd_one> even with windows, it's a bad idea
[17:55] <CompactDstrxion> lol
[17:55] <kwesi> gordonjcp: installing packages

[17:56] <elf__> Hello, everytime I try to upgrade from 7.0.4 to 7.10 using update-manager, it works for a few minutes then fails fetching  http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/dists/feisty/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[17:56] <kwesi> gordonjcp: using synaptic package manager
[17:56] <xfm> stryd_one: thanks thanks ;)
[17:56] <elf__> but it doesn't matter which server I try
[17:56] <gordonjcp> kwesi: okay
[17:56] <stryd_one> hahaha
[17:56] <gordonjcp> kwesi: and you're only using synaptic?
[17:56] <ActionParsnip> Dinand_Mentink: run lspci and lsusb in terminal, one line will identify the device, you can websearch from there
[17:56] <bullgard4> gordonjcp: How can an network interface be active without having an internet address?
[17:56] <Pici> !upgrade | elf__
[17:56] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: easily
[17:56] <elf__> ubottu: thanks, i'll look at them.
[17:57] <bullgard4> gordonjcp: Can you elaborate.
[17:57] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: what if you weren't using it for TCP/IP ?
[17:57] <kwesi> gordonjcp: can I be doing that and using Add/remove to install software
[17:57] <gordonjcp> kwesi: no
[17:57] <Dinand_Mentink> I've websearched for like 2 days now
[17:57] <gordonjcp> kwesi: you can only use one package manager at a time
[17:57] <kwesi> gordonjcp: That's slow
[17:57] <bullgard4> gordonjcp: I can only use interfaces vis TCP/IP. Anything else is obsolete.
[17:57] <gordonjcp> kwesi: there is a database that keeps track of which packages that are installed
[17:57] <Dinand_Mentink> the device is Broadcom Corporation BCM4311 802.11b/g WLAN
[17:57] <jabbieboy> hi all
[17:58] <jabbieboy> how are  you  doing?
[17:58] <cbilljones> hey hey
[17:58] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: I suppose you've never used a NAS then
[17:58] <spill> hey all, I'm runing 8.10 with gnome, I installed kde and then uninstalled but now the kubuntu splash screen is still there instead of the orange ubuntu.
[17:58] <gordonjcp> not NAS, rather, SAN
[17:58] <mothersunion> hello
[17:58] <gordonjcp> kwesi: you can tell the package manager to install more than one package at a time
[17:59] <kwesi> gordonjcp: Is there a site I can download a whole collection of packages and install?
[17:59] <marcel_> how can i get java please ? (what package is better ??)
[17:59] <neulix> join/ #ubuntu-de
[17:59] <gordonjcp> kwesi: probably
[17:59] <stryd_one> marcel: use he sun-java one
[18:00] <mmm4m5m> s1amson: Thank you. Will check more about "parted magic". Looks it is free. Do you have good experience with ntfs? Long time back I did use TrueImage. They have live CD, I think it is linux based. They give some gurantees at least. Do you think "parted magic" is better option?
[18:00] <tigreton> hi
[18:00] <bullgard4> gordonjcp: It is true that I have never used a Netware Access Server. But this irrelevant for finding the answer to the question put.
[18:00] <stryd_one> mmm4m5m, noone in their right mind is gonna guarantee what you're doing
[18:00] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: not Netware, NAS
[18:00] <marcel_> java from sun is better than the others gordnjcp ?
[18:00] <kwesi> gordonjcp: It looks like using the package manager after fresh installation is really slow
[18:00] <FuriousGeorge> hey all
[18:00] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: network attached storage
[18:00] <gordonjcp> kwesi: maybe your net connection is slow
[18:00] <FuriousGeorge> any way to get java 6u10 on 8.0.4
[18:00] <FuriousGeorge> ?
[18:00] <stryd_one> mmm4m5m, get a backup dude
[18:01] <kwesi> gordonjcp: It makes the ladder to high to climb

[18:01] <spill> anyone know how to change the ubuntu loading splash screen?
[18:01] <mmm4m5m> stryd_one: 500 GB HDD, 50% is free. First need to resize. After that I can backup.
[18:01] <stryd_one> mmm: no, first need to backup, after that you can resize
[18:01] <fluitfries_> can anyone help me remove an applet from the panel for all user accounts, even new ones?  i've tried a few of the suggestions with gconf on the forums but nothing seems to be working.  thanks!
[18:01] <gordonjcp> bullgard4: the one with no IP address is only used for raw Ethernet frames
[18:01] <scunizi> mmm4m5m, another one to google for is Rescue CD.. It's a live cd with partimage on it for mirroring your partitions.
[18:01] <stryd_one> resizing a partition with no backup is risky as hell
[18:02] <kwesi> gordonjcp: I am in Ghana
[18:02] <stryd_one> resizing it and then changing the filesystem is worse
[18:02] <gordonjcp> kwesi: hmm
[18:02] <gordonjcp> kwesi: perhaps you can change your package manager to use a mirror closer to you
[18:03] <spill> anyone know how to change the ubuntu loading splash screen?
[18:03] <Pici> fluitfries_: Have you seen this document? http://library.gnome.org/admin/deployment-guide/
[18:03] <mmm4m5m> stryd_one, s1amson, scunizi, Gtwy: thank you very much. Will think twice. Maybe you are right, I have to take it slowly.
[18:03] <stryd_one> spill: I can't remember how, but i do remeber finding out how when i googled it.
[18:03] <efaistos> hmmm anybody has an idea how to resolve the initramfs busybox issue when you boot on a newer kernel ?
[18:04] <fluitfries_> Pici: i have not.  this should be very helpful.  thanks!!

[18:04] <Pici> fluitfries_: This may help as well: http://www.linux.com/feature/62060
[18:04] <stryd_one> spill: there were instructions on the ubuntu forums IIRC
[18:05] <spill> stryd_one: ok, i'll check it out.
[18:05] <spill> stryd_one: thanks.
[18:05] <fluitfries_> Pici: great, thanks again.

[18:09] <ActionParsnip> cbilljones: I dont use gnome-xchat so i cant be specific
[18:09] <jelly12gen> FuriousGeorge: isnt it in the backports?
[18:10] <Ketrel> If I wish to choose a wireless network and connect to it purely from commandline what do I have to do
[18:10] <user___> FuriousGeorge: yes, they just dont match ;-)
[18:10] <FuriousGeorge> jelly12gen: where can i find the backports?  in 8.04 the newest version available is 6u07
[18:11] <xMopx> With eeeubuntu, is it possible to get the regular gnome desktop on it?

[18:12] <FuriousGeorge> jelly12gen: is this the official list of backports?  http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid-backports/allpackages
[18:12] <FuriousGeorge> if so, it is not there
[18:12] <cbilljones> thanks guys, got it figured out :)
[18:13] <xMopx> Ah Ill try that apt line
[18:13] <gmathews> bazhang: sorry thought it was #amarok :P My bad.
[18:13] <FuriousGeorge> user___: i read on a forum that because sun-java6-bin is a bin that you can just use the .deb
[18:14] <messeup> ubuntu eee anyone ??
[18:14] <messeup> where is install guidlines
[18:14] <messeup> i have xandros and it sucks
[18:15] <messeup> nothing works correct
[18:15] <ryanprior> My notification area claims that there is "1 file operation active" but that operation has hung and not gone away for many hours. Is there a way I can purge it?
[18:15] <messeup> !eee
[18:15] <ryanprior> messeup: This isn't the place to complain about other distros. Good luck getting Ubuntu working, though.
[18:15] <stryd_one> furious: do you really need to? regardless, grab the deb and try it. if it can't find dependencies, it'll not install. It might go pear-shaped... what about installing from source?
[18:16] <user___> FuriousGeorge: theres some truth to this, but in effect you need a perfectly matching system and this includes for instance having the correct libc, etc..
[18:16] <messeup> eee channel?
[18:17] <wolter> hey tritium, could you help me building gspca?
[18:17] <bazhang> !eee

[18:19] <glymph> commandline
[18:19] <emendo> What is the preferred paste website, I have some output I need your help with.

[18:19] <aar> Hi, when you do a "ls" in the terminal and some files / directories are blue or green, what do those colours means?
[18:19] <rsa_md5> any idea where do  I find a complete deb package for python2.6 that would have all the dependencies bundled with it?
[18:20] <Ketrel> If I wish to choose a wireless network and connect to it purely from commandline what do I have to do?
[18:20] <aar> Ketrel, ifconfig
[18:20] <macman_> guys .. i want to rm -r /tmp/ is this safe or not ?
[18:20] <glymph> aar: they denote whether they are files or directories, and the permissions they have, should be documented in the "ls" manpage, I imagine - see "man ls"
[18:20] <bazhang> Ketrel, is it encrypted or not
[18:20] <aar> glymph, ok thanks
[18:20] <emendo> Ubuntu seems to have problems with mics. I am capturing for audacity. Please view this and tell me what you think.
[18:20] <emendo> http://paste.ubuntu.com/109953/
[18:20] <glymph> macman_: no, don't delete the tmp directory - it should get cleared at boot time anyway
[18:21] <bod> Hi, i have no graphics card drivers listed in System-->Admin-->Hardware drivers        I know that the card im using needs them because i installed them on all my previous installs -- how can i get the drivers? im using a nvidia geforce 7300
[18:21] <emendo> Do you think I have a driver problem?
[18:21] <Ketrel> bazhang: nope, I just need the basic commands to use
[18:21] <emendo> Capture is the only problem, the mic jack does not work.
[18:21] <emendo> My built in mics work perfectly.
[18:22] <bazhang> Ketrel, sudo dhclient wlan0 (for example)
[18:22] <FuriousGeorge> am i going to need the java-plugin from intrepid too now
[18:22] <bazhang> Ketrel, could be ath0 ra0 etc
[18:22] <Ketrel> bazhang: thank you, dhclient I think is the command I was forgetting, I knew of iwconfig, and ifconfig
[18:22] <Ketrel> bazhang: in my case, it's eth1
[18:22] <ryanprior> My notification area claims that there is "1 file operation active" but that operation has hung and not gone away for many hours. Is there a way I can purge it?
[18:23] <bazhang> Bodsda, the 177 works here
[18:23] <bazhang> Bodsda, you are on intrepid right?
[18:23] <emendo> I did not have this problem on earlier versions of ubuntu.
[18:23] <Bodsda> bazhang, yep, thats the one i think i need, yes im on intrepid
[18:23] <bazhang> Bodsda, exact same card here
[18:23] <Bodsda> bazhang, nice :) any ideas how i install the drivers from apt?
[18:24] <nightrid3r> !openid
[18:25] <Bodsda> !pm > padhu
[18:25] <xMopx> ActionParsnip: Doing sudo apt-get ubuntu-desktop didn't get the regular gnome desktop or ditch the eeebuntu one
[18:25] <cbilljones> bodsda, what driver ?
[18:26] <zwaene> lol
[18:26] <AJC_Z0> How do I add an application to handle media which I choose from the popup when I insert removable media (DVD, CD)?
[18:26] <bazhang> xMopx, that is not the way to do it
[18:26] <ActionParsnip> xMopx: you need to log off, change session type to gnome then log back in
[18:26] <Bodsda> cbilljones, nvidia 177
[18:26] <xMopx> ActionParsnip: I rebooted and changed the session type after installing
[18:26] <xMopx> bazhang: what should I try?
[18:26] <bazhang> xMopx, this is from eeebuntu site?
[18:26] <cbilljones> use hardware drivers in system>admin
[18:27] <Bodsda> cbilljones, thats the problem, there is none listed there
[18:27] <bazhang> Bodsda, you have the restricted-modules installed?
[18:27] <xMopx> bazhang: Yeah i downloaded the "netbook" one from eeebuntu.org
[18:27] <Rave1_> xMopx just download eeeubuntu Base it does not have that overlay desktop you are trtying to get rid of
[18:27] <Bodsda> bazhang, not sure, lemme check
[18:27] <cbilljones> ya prob need the modules
[18:27] <bazhang> xMopx, but you saw the other choices correct? the full gnome traditional desktop one?
[18:27] <xMopx> Rave1_: I tried that one, it started booting then dumped me into an "(initramfs)" shell that i couldnt do anything with
[18:28] <xMopx> bazhang: Sec ill check the choices
[18:28] <Bodsda> bazhang, cbilljones -- gah, have to wait for gstreamer stuff to finish downloading
[18:28] <Necrosan> Uhh.
[18:28] <Necrosan> xserver-xorg-video-sunffb is broken
[18:28] <Necrosan> On intrepid
[18:28] <cbilljones> kk should be there, what card do u have?
[18:28] <Necrosan> Well, not broken; it wants an older version ofX
[18:28] <Pici> !bugs | Necrosan
[18:28] <xMopx> bazhang: There's Last Session, Rune Xclient Script, GNOME, Secure Remote Connection Failsafe Gnome, Failsafe terminal.
[18:28] <Necrosan> Pici: How do i force install it?
[18:29] <Necrosan> It will work for sure, but apt-get is being lame
[18:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Necrosan What changes have you made to your sources list
[18:29] <Bodsda> bazhang, is the package called 'restricted-modules' ?
[18:29] <ryanprior> My notification area claims that there is "1 file operation active" but that operation has hung and not gone away for many hours. Is there a way I can purge it?
[18:29] <bazhang> !info linux-restricted-moduless
[18:29] <bazhang> hang on bod
[18:30] <Necrosan> Jack_Sparrow: None. it's stock as ever.
[18:30] <Bodsda> ty :)
[18:30] <charles> slt
[18:30] <Jack_Sparrow> !info linux-restricted-modules
[18:30] <Bodsda> ah, cheers Jack_Sparrow
[18:30] <cbilljones> linux-restriced-modules
[18:30] <Necrosan> Jack_Sparrow: this is a sparc64 install
[18:30] <Necrosan> If that changes anything
[18:30] <charles> g pas  encore ubuntu en main et g voudrais discuter sur msn est ce possible
[18:30] <Jack_Sparrow> Necrosan What has been installed manually that may have changed dependencies and versioning
[18:31] <bazhang> charles, #ubuntu-fr
[18:31] <Bodsda> bazhang, would i have to restart before i see changes in hardware drivers?
[18:31] <Necrosan> Jack_Sparrow: I removed xserver-xorg-core, it wants an older version
[18:31] <Necrosan> I did that, reinstalled ubuntu-desktop, and it still borks.
[18:31] <bazhang> Bodsda, believe so yes
[18:31] <Necrosan> Looks like the maintainer isn't keeping it up to date
[18:31] <Bodsda> bazhang, ok, cheers mate, bbiab
[18:32] <bullgard4> ifconfig returns 4 times "Link encap". What is meant by 'link encap'?
[18:33] <Necrosan> Jack_Sparrow: no way to force it?
[18:34] <bod> hey bazhang -- no hardware drivers still :(
[18:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Necrosan I wont force anything, I try to look more at why something needs to be forced and work from there
[18:35] <Necrosan> Jack_Sparrow: -force=yes didn't fix it anyway.
[18:35] <bazhang> bod, did you check in synaptic for nvidia?
[18:35] <lilendian> Hello All, I've got an API mismatch error when trying to use nvidia drivers.
[18:35] <Necrosan> It really looks like ports.ubuntu.com is out of date
[18:35] <Necrosan> with sparc64 binaries
[18:35] <bod> bazhang, yes, there is quite a few, im not sure which one i want
[18:36] <lilendian> the binary drivers are 180.22 while the kernel api is 180.10 or something
[18:36] <Necrosan> unless a commit is going on right now (highly unlikely)
[18:36] <lilendian> how do I get this resolved?
[18:36] <bazhang> nvidia-glx-177 - NVIDIA binary Xorg driver bod
[18:36] <Pici> lilendian: What version of Ubuntu?
[18:36] <lilendian> ibex.
[18:36] <bod> bazhang, thank you kindly :)
[18:36] <Necrosan> Jack_Sparrow: Also having a problem getting linux-sparc64-smp to install..
[18:36] <Necrosan> One of the packages is not on the server, but is referenced by others
[18:37] <Jack_Sparrow> lilendian What video card are you using
[18:37] <lilendian> I tried using nvidia-glx-180 first, didnt work - then tried the binary installers- I think at some point, I've completely screwed up my ibex installation while trying to use the 'workarounds'
[18:37] <lilendian> gtx260
[18:37] <xMopx> Anyone know how I can get the regular gnome desktop on eeebuntu?
[18:37] <Jack_Sparrow> !eee
[18:37] <messeup> !eee
[18:37] <wolter> lilendian, dont worry... just run the setup's uninstaller
[18:38] <wolter> lilendian, that happened to me yesterday, i think. did you get the low-graphics mode thing?
[18:38] <lilendian> wolter, I did, The installation goes fine. Until I try to restart the X server.
[18:38] <lilendian> Yes, i did.
[18:38] <Jack_Sparrow> lilendian Once I tried the nvidia website drivers my system never recovered.,  Ended up restoring my backup
[18:38] <Ketrel> Question, when using apt from command-line, how can you see what a package provides?
[18:39] <wolter> lilendian, yes... same thing happened to me...
[18:39] <wolter> lilendian, go to your home dir, and locate the extraction of the binary driver.
[18:39] <lstarnes> Ketrel: try aptitude show package-name
[18:39] <lilendian> damn. I don't have no system backup :( - but on the bright side, I've got nothing to lose (except time) from re-doing the installation
[18:39] <wolter> lilendian, no
[18:39] <wolter> lilendian, pay attention
[18:39] <wolter> lilendian, i think i can solve this
[18:40] <lilendian> sorry, i'll shut up. please do go on.
[18:40] <wolter> lilendian, you just have to run the installer's uninstall option
[18:40] <Ketrel> lstarnes: thanks
[18:40] <Stalker72> How do I auto-align and/or auto-arrange icons in Kubuntu?
[18:40] <wolter> lilendian, setup saves a backup of everything before installing, uninstall restores the whole thing (everything related to graphics and kernels)
[18:40] <xMopx> How I can get the regular gnome desktop on eeebuntu?
[18:41] <Jack_Sparrow> xMopx Perhaps by asking in the eee channel
[18:41] <wolter> lilendian, so do this, locate the readme file inside that folder, and find where it says --uninstall
[18:41] <xMopx> Jack_Sparrow: I did, everyone there idles
[18:41] <jxander> does the google repository from http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/apt.html support intrepid?
[18:41] <lilendian> wolter, thats it? wolter, ahead of you on that mate. I already ran the installer with --uninstall. It does restore things except that nvidia-glx-180 doesnt work no more.
[18:41] <wolter> lilendian, well, truly you just have to run 'nvidia-installer --uninstall' while gdm is stopped (console mode)
[18:42] <wolter> lilendian, but you have to find that file, should be at ~/NVIDIA*/
[18:42] <wolter> lilendian, oh
[18:42] <wolter> lilendian, now thats diferent
[18:42] <wolter> lilendian, what is your card?
[18:42] <lilendian> gtx 260.
[18:43] <lilendian> wolter, what about this wrong kernel version. wait till I paste from dmesg
[18:43] <bullgard4> ifconfig returns 4 times "Link encap". What is meant by 'link encap'? link encapsulationẞ Why is this important?
[18:44] <emendo> I have no mic boost in 8.10. Please help.
[18:44] <emendo> I used to in earlier versions.
[18:44] <emendo> Why is it gone?
[18:45] <aldipc> question: when I have a fresh ubuntu install, is the firewall already active, or do I only have a firewall which actually does something (ie. block traffic) after I install firestarter or some other program which sets things up?
[18:46] <bazhang> !iptables
[18:46] <buters> bonjour a tous
[18:46] <buters> french here ,
[18:46] <bazhang> buters, #ubuntu-fr pour francais
[18:46] <buters> ok désolé  je debute
[18:46] <harlemdavvey1> hi guys, is there someone who's had problems with firefox 3.0.5?
[18:47] <buters> bye all
[18:47] <plazia> bye
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> harlemdavvey1: no issues here
[18:47] <ActionParsnip> harlemdavvey1: wassup?
[18:47] <johan12> how do i install new icon-sets?
[18:47] <guido_> hi, i am using the 8.10 alternative installation disc, on about 3/4th of the installation it asks for the installation disc, but it's already in there, any ideas?
[18:47] <CompactDstrxion> woot got flash working in 64-bit forefox
[18:47] <jacekowski> hi
[18:47] <legate> I can't reach the home folder of my fedora installation. If I try to go there via 'cd' I get "Permission denied". Trying to do it via 'sudo cd' fails with 'cd: command not found'. How is that possible?
[18:47] <shaya> anyone having an issue with pidgin and gmail?
[18:48] <emendo> Is there an irc that is specialized for linux sound?
[18:48] <aldipc> yeah, but when I haven't started firestarter yet, is iptables already setup to block traffic?
[18:48] <gpled> say, just installed 8.10 64 desktop.  notice i have no floppy drive showing.  any idea where it went?
[18:48] <kao> who uses a floppy anymore? :P
[18:48] <johan12> gpled: you have to put a floppy in the driver to show upp (i think)
[18:48] <puremichael> hi! can someone tell me why powernowd ignores my adjusted settings? it always uses 1ghz,1.8ghz and 2.0ghz
[18:48] <harlemdavvey1> my firefox is crazy.. is incredibly slow sometimes and it has the big problem when you do CTRL+T  that the tab that comes out, has the same address you typed on the previous tab you opened.. what can it be?
[18:48] <nightrid3r> emendo: #ubuntustudio
[18:48] <unop> legate, cd is not an external executable that sudo can invoke .. cd is shell builtin command
[18:49] <erUSUL> puremichael: that are the only freq your cpu supports
[18:49] <gpled> my cdrom drive shows, with no cd in it.  thought my floppy would be the same
[18:49] <emendo> nightrid3r: will they help resolve a mic problem?
[18:49] <harlemdavvey1> plus, always my firefox, has not the availability to use the "go back" button .. i have never seen like this xD
[18:49] <erUSUL> puremichael: mine only support that 3 too
[18:49] <Zoli> helló
[18:49] <ext4-issues1>  by mistake converted my /home to ext4, without researching much, is there a way I can use it? its not being mounted, with -t ext4 I get unknown filesystem and with ext2 or ext3, I get bad fs type. Should I try januty jackapole?
[18:49] <puremichael> erUSUL, huh? i got more different ones in windows o_O
[18:49] <legate> unop: And is there a possibility to circumvent cd?
[18:49] <adam> question: I would like to create a ubuntu live/install of my current configuration, is there a tool for this?
[18:49] <nightrid3r> emendo: they are into multimedia on ubuntu so i guess they will know more
[18:49] <ubuntu_is_dabest> it seems like my apache2 cannot write (read-only) any files on the filesystem
[18:50] <emendo> nightrid3r: Thank you I will try.
[18:50] <hwilde> legate, chown the mountpoint of your fedora partition to your current user.
[18:50] <ubuntu_is_dabest> how to allow it ?
[18:50] <erUSUL> puremichael: run cpufreq-info
[18:50] <kao> adam: remastersys
[18:50] <unop> legate, no, a process cannot change the environment of another .. that's just the way unix is built .. so an external process (this ficticious cd) cannot change the current directory of your current shell
[18:50] <hwilde> unop, he needs to change the permissions on the mountpoint.
[18:50] <adam> !remastersys | adam
[18:51] <nightrid3r> ubuntu_is_dabest: man chown and man chmod
[18:51] <laeg> i captured my mouse cursor in a vbox running behind this irssi window and now i can't get to the window to unlock it, how do i bring up the vbox window?
[18:51] <gonzojive> my backspace key is not working in emacs when I SSH into my 08.04 Ubuntu server.  It does work SSHing into a different Ubuntu server that's a little older (forget exactly what version).  The backspace works in the command prompt, but not in emacs
[18:51] <legate> hwilde: How do I do that? Actually, both my ubuntu and fedora profile are on a separate home partition.
[18:51] <unop> legate, you could do something like this instead.   sudo bash -c "cd somewhere/ && bash"
[18:51] <adam> kao: thanks
[18:51] <nightrid3r> laeg: right ctrl button
[18:51] <hwilde> legate, sudo chown <youruser> /mountpoint
[18:51] <bullgard4> ifconfig returns 4 times "Link encap". What is meant by 'link encap'? link encapsulation?ẞ Why is this important?
[18:51] <hwilde> unop, that would just cd him into a directory where he has no permissions :/
[18:52] <laeg> nightrid3r: yes this unlocks the mouse but only when the vbox window is active, which it's not :(
[18:52] <hwilde> bullgard4, that is what type of encapsulation the packets have, typically Ethernet.  or Local loopback
[18:52] <laeg> nightrid3r: i tried alt+tab but it won't move from the irssi input line
[18:52] <unop> hwilde,  errm .. bash there will be running as the superuser ..
[18:52] <__^^stefan^^__> did you guys ever experienced a 8.04 server x64 install that failed at grub install ?
[18:53] <legate> hwilde: It works, thank you very much! :)
[18:53] <Bodsda> bazhang, cheers mate, works a charm
[18:53] <hwilde> legate, fyi it was owned as root before so its just a permission issue
[18:53] <gonzojive> any advice on how to debug backspace not working over SSH?
[18:54] <gonzojive> it doesn't work in emacs but works on the command prompt
[18:54] <erUSUL> gonzojive: term type ? what does "echo $TERM" returns ?
[18:54] <hwilde> gonzojive, /join #emacs
[18:54] <bazhang> Bodsda, nice :)
[18:54] <Bodsda> :)
[18:55] <chumbo> Hi there i have a problem with firefox, every time I open a page with some flash content it crashes... doesnt happen with youtube doh
[18:55] <ikt> still happen if you use gnash/different flash viewer?
[18:55] <kao> chumbo: same thing happens to me. but not with ever page that contains flash...
[18:55] <unop> gonzojive, http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Keyboard-and-Console-HOWTO-5.html
[18:56] <s0101> hi
[18:56] <chumbo> kao, yes not with me ether
[18:56] <gonzojive> erUSUL: xterm-color
[18:56] <oCean_> chumbo: what's your flashplugin? flashplugin-nonfree works fine for me
[18:57] <puremichael> erUSUL, thanks; you're right.... but even the adjustments to powernowd don't work... i've configured it to 'leap' (because 1.8ghz don't matter anyway) but its always the same behavior i think
[18:57] <bullgard4> hwilde: I do not understand you very well. What does 'Link encap: Ethernet' mean? That the packets flowing through this interface are encapsulated in Ethernet frames? And what does ' Link encap:Local Loopback ' mean then?
[18:57] <s0101> my desktop is bigger than my screen it all happend after i canceled a system update and restarted the computer i updated the nividia diver and it made it look a bit better but not perfect so i upgraded from 8.04, 8.10 and i am back with the first prob
[18:57] <kao> oCean_:This same thing happens to me also, with the Firefox crashing on Flash. How do I find out what flashplugin I am using?
[18:57] <chumbo> oCean_: dont no how do i see that??
[18:58] <Bodsda> hey bazhang -- still got a slight problem, im using the restricted driver but my screen res is capped at 800x600 -- any ideas what to try?
[18:58] <gonzojive> unop: thanks for that link
[18:58] <ubuntu_is_dabest> nightrid3r: is chmod +rw wwwvar  the right syntax?
[18:58] <oCean_> kao: chumbo: see "ls -al /etc/alternatives/firefox-flashplugin" It's a link
[18:58] <hwilde> bullgard4, it doesnt really matter - what is not working for you?
[18:58] <s0101> after my upgrade to 8.10 my highest res is 640*480
[18:58] <erUSUL> puremichael: well afaics you can only change what governor to use (ondemand in my case)
[18:58] <bazhang> Bodsda, did you install nvidia-settings ?
[18:58] <bazhang> !info nvidia-settings
[18:59] <oCean_> kao: chumbo: so, mine is a link to /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[18:59] <Bodsda> bazhang, no... i suppose i should have done?
[18:59] <kao> oCean_:libflashplayer.so
[18:59] <nightrid3r> ubuntu_is_dabest: chmod -R +rw /var/www
[18:59] <bazhang>  Bodsda worked for me :)
[18:59] <unop> nightrid3r, not a good idea that
[18:59] <Bodsda> bazhang, hmm, i seem to remember this being less 'round the houses' in hardy
[18:59] <kao> oCean_:Mine is the Same
[18:59] <puremichael> erUSUL, thanks.... now i think i've been fooled with the processor :-) but how could windows adjust it so nicely? i could see it gradualy increasing/decreasing
[19:00] <kao> oCean_:/usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[19:00] <bullgard4> hwilde: In contrast to your opinion it does matter. --  My T42 does not thaw properly after resuming it in a local Ubuntu club and thawing it in my LAN at home.
[19:00] <s0101> is a reinstall of the system my only option?
[19:00] <Bodsda> bazhang, ah, my xorg.conf file says im not using nvidia x diver -- should the driver be 'nv' or 'nvidia'?
[19:00] <unop> ubuntu_is_dabest,  have a look at the apache moduserdir module - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_userdir.html
[19:00] <hwilde> bullgard4, thaw?  like it was frozen ?
[19:00] <oCean_> kao: Ah, I see... well, that plugin was for me the solution to work with all flash pages
[19:00] <ubuntu_is_dabest> hm, the chmod is successful, but somehow apache2 still fail to write file
[19:00] <bullgard4> hwilde: In contrast to your opinion it does matter. --  My T42 does not thaw properly after hibernating it in a local Ubuntu club and thawing it in my LAN at home.
[19:00] <bazhang> Bodsda, not sure if that is used at all anymore in intrepid
[19:00] <ryanCH> what package name do i install the java command line compiler and runtime with aptitude?
[19:00] <bullgard4> hwilde: Yes.
[19:01] <bullgard4> hwilde: Never heard of?
[19:01] <hwilde> bullgard4, that is a condensation/electrical issue and has nothing to do with the encapsulation
[19:01] <Bodsda> bazhang, could i get a look at your xorg if you dont mind please
[19:01] <erUSUL> puremichael: maybe the windows app just fooled you ;P dunno really maybe the windows app just pretende to be more fine grained that it really was
[19:01] <unop> ryanCH,  sun-java6-jre  and sun-java6-jdk  perhaps
[19:01] <bullgard4> hwilde: Your Linux education is insufficient. --  Thanks for a nice try.
[19:02] <bazhang> Bodsda, should say 'nvidia' according to mine
[19:02] <chumbo> oCean_: well i think it is cool now thanks! =)
[19:02] <hwilde> bullgard4, guaranteed your problem has nothing to do with link encap.
[19:02] <Droopsta915> can someone help me create a pidgin account. I seem to be doing something wrong
[19:02] <bazhang> bullgard4, please take chat elsewhere
[19:02] <Bodsda> bazhang, cheers :)
[19:02] <bullgard4> bazhang: This is no chat. Please read before you judge.
[19:03] <bazhang> bullgard4, I have read.
[19:03] <ryanCH> unop, one more question, how do you decrypt a file with mcrypt?
[19:03] <bazhang> bullgard4, thus I advise you to take it elsewhere.
[19:03] <Bodsda> bazhang, ermm, my xorg is empty -- would   dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg   refill it?
[19:03] <s0101> anybody with the same problem with desktop size on ubuntu8.10?
[19:03] <unop> ryanCH, hmm, i have no idea -- doesn't it have any documentation/manpages?
[19:04] <Mood> is it normal to have sudo as a process using 85% of my CPU?
[19:04] <bazhang> sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg Bodsda
[19:04] <unop> Bodsda, not anymore .. the new Xorg is supposed to be auto-configuring i.e. it doesn't need a xorg.conf
[19:04] <erUSUL> Mood: nope
[19:04] <bazhang> Bodsda, to update it that is
[19:04] <estudiante> Hello
