[02:56] <sethk> peacekpr, can you successfully print the test page after you do the cups http setup?
[02:56] <ski-worklap> hmm
[02:56] <ski-worklap> ubuntu wakes from a sleep and i can't ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:57] <ski-worklap> anyone ever have that problem before?
[02:57] <kitche> Shaba1: http:www.nuxified.org/?q=managing_linux_though_windows_active_directory_0
[02:57] <webhed> !vcd
[02:57] <webhed> Can someone tell me how to create a VCD using GnomeBaker?
[02:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vcd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:57] <TheMafia> I upgraded to edgy, now I can't seem to be able to install an smp kernel?
[02:57] <ski-worklap> TheMafia, it comes with smp by default
[02:57] <peacekpr> sethk, it's trying to send the info, but i don't think the other end is wanting to pick up
[02:57] <TheMafia> it says I am running a 386 kernel?
[02:57] <yoshig3> LjL: Alright, I upgraded. What now?
[02:58] <ski-worklap> TheMafia, what do you mean by "it" ?
[02:58] <sethk> peacekpr, I mean, running a browser on the server machine, can you print the test page?  that would be a local print
[02:58] <ski-worklap> if you run uname -a you'll see it's an smp kernel compiled for 686
[02:58] <kitche> TheMafia: cat /proc/cpuifnoa dn see what it says for processors
[02:58] <sethk> peacekpr, the strategy here would be, get it working first on the server machine, then add the client.
[02:58] <LjL> yoshig3: if you did it right, now they're installed. restart X (X, not Xgl), and you should be able to run Beryl - although you might be missing window borders i guess (join #ubuntu-xgl for complete instructions on that)
[02:58] <kitche> TheMafia: /proc/cpuinfo*
[02:58] <sethk> peacekpr, which I'm sure you've already thought of, I'm just thinking out loud
[02:58] <TheMafia> cpuinfo lists only proc 0
[02:59] <ski-worklap> TheMafia, what does uname -a say
[02:59] <peacekpr> sethk, it works on the server side
[02:59] <yoshig3> LjL: But all I did was add a repository and update. How does that install drivers?
[02:59] <sethk> peacekpr, ok, good
[02:59] <kitche> TheMafia: did you reboot after you upgraded?
[02:59] <TheMafia> Linux cdavis-laptop 2.6.17-10-386 #2 Fri Oct 13 18:41:40 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
[02:59] <TheMafia> kitche, yes
[02:59] <LjL> yoshig3: *update* or *upgrade*? that's different
[02:59] <yoshig3> LjL: "W: GPG error: http://seerofsouls.com edgy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 024EF0BCA98AA089
[02:59] <yoshig3> "
[02:59] <LjL> Ubotu, tell yoshig3 about gpgerr | yoshig3, see the private message from Ubotu
[02:59] <yoshig3> LjL: I upgraded
[03:00] <James> Hello, I can't start my X, /dev/input/mice, no such device. I try to cat /dev/input/mice, no such device, i already load psmouse. why?
[03:00] <ski-worklap> TheMafia, sudo apt-get install linux-generic
[03:00] <sethk> peacekpr, I just did a trace of running lpq on my client (that is working); it uses /etc/cups/client.conf.
[03:00] <kitche> James: try cat /dev/psaux and moving the mouse to see if that's your mouse
[03:00] <James> kitche, the same result
[03:00] <LjL> yoshig3: well, then why is it strange that you would have the new drivers? you 1) added the repositories that contain a new version of some packages (the nvidia drivers) that you *already have*  2) instructed Ubuntu to upgrade anything it finds upgradable
[03:00] <LjL> at least, you should have
[03:01] <James> my mouse is ps2 kitche
[03:01] <yoshig3> LjL: it just gave me some software updates
[03:01] <LjL> yoshig3: ... like?
[03:01] <kitche> James: it should be either /dev/psaux /dev/input/mice or /dev/input/mouse[0-3]
[03:01] <LjL> yoshig3: look, what does "apt-cache policy nvidia-glx" tell you as "candidate"?
[03:02] <peacekpr> hmmm
[03:02] <sethk> peacekpr, hmm, this is interesting, actually the client.conf file is only commented lines
[03:02] <Spaghetti_Knife> Hi, does anybody know of any IRC channels where I could get help with beginner's Java programming?
[03:02] <sethk> peacekpr, so that's not how it finds the server.
[03:02] <somerville32> Spaghetti_Knife, ##java
[03:02] <Spaghetti_Knife> somerville32 With 2 "#", and on freenode?
[03:02] <damageDOn1> Does anyone know how to get apps to launch into set workspaces on start up. I've added some apps to sessions startup programs but they all launch on workspace 1. I guess there's a command option you can add that will specify where to launch it.
[03:02] <schisms> Spaghetti_Knife
[03:02] <yoshig3> LjL: It gave me some driver updates I believe
[03:02] <schisms> Google is your friend.
[03:03] <Spaghetti_Knife> schisms Yeah?
[03:03] <schisms> There's plenty.
[03:03] <somerville32> Spaghetti_Knife, Yes.
[03:03] <LjL> yoshig3: uh... driver updates? like, the nvidia driver? :P
[03:03] <peacekpr> sethk, hmmm
[03:03] <jughead> Spaghetti_Knife, did you get your wireless figured out?
[03:03] <sethk> peacekpr, the ip actually appears (as part of the ipp url) in /etc/cups/printers.conf
[03:03] <James> kitche, :( all of them show the same result: no such device
[03:04] <sethk> peacekpr, that's the only file in /etc/cups that has the server name or ip
[03:04] <peacekpr> sethk, all lines in that file are commented out
[03:04] <sethk> peacekpr, in printers.conf?
[03:04] <peacekpr> yes
[03:04] <yoshig3> LjL: yes to 92 something...
[03:04] <sethk> peacekpr, I can put mine on the paste site if you like
[03:04] <joeshmo> why isn't ubuntu using the swap file...memory is full
[03:04] <peacekpr> sethk, sure... that may be helpful
[03:04] <yoshig3> LjL: sorry for being so stupid, hard to do this with my mom screaming at me why I have her laptop =\
[03:04] <kitche> joeshmo: what does top say for your swap?
[03:04] <Spaghetti_Knife> jughead Yup.
[03:04] <rajiv_nair> joeshmo: ive been wondering thatn too
[03:04] <rajiv_nair> that*
[03:05] <joeshmo> like 2 gigs free
[03:05] <joeshmo> 0 used
[03:05] <Spaghetti_Knife> jughead I got disconnected.
[03:05] <LjL> yoshig3: 9631 perhaps?
[03:05] <joeshmo> and my mem is full
[03:05] <rajiv_nair> my mem aint full
[03:05] <joeshmo> i think its  a bug
[03:05] <lambo4jos> i am trying to connect to an svn-repo on a remote ubuntu desktop from a windows laptop through a home router. how do i do this?
[03:05] <kitche> joeshmo: how full?
[03:05] <rajiv_nair> abt70%:D
[03:05] <joeshmo> well mine is cuz im running wine
[03:05] <LjL> yoshig3: 9629 even
[03:05] <joeshmo> like 5 mb left
[03:05] <joeshmo> lemme get exact
[03:05] <peacekpr> sethk, that's probably the reason... the file says it was overwritten a couple of hours ago... i wonder why - maybe when i reinstalled the cups packages (?)
[03:05] <yoshig3> LjL: But I got that error at first with the repository
[03:05] <rajiv_nair> joeshno: u hv xgl/beryl running?? :>
[03:05] <joeshmo> 6000K ish free
[03:05] <yoshig3> LjL: Then a software update icon popped up
[03:05] <sethk> peacekpr, possibly.  here's mine:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36537/
[03:05] <yoshig3> LjL: And gave meh this
[03:06] <joeshmo> no it sonly full cuz im running wine + installing counterstrike
[03:06] <joeshmo> but i wish it would use the swap
[03:06] <kitche> joeshmo: that's 6 megs I have seen swap no get used until 1 meg was free
[03:06] <yoshig3> LjL: Alright, gonna try a restart.
[03:06] <ozoneco> how do you tell the partitions and types on a system?
[03:06] <rajiv_nair> kitchie: thnx for da info:)
[03:06] <LjL> yoshig3: that error was saying that Ubuntu didn't know the cryptographic keys for that nvidia repository. which is certainly normal, since it's not an official repository. if you want the error to go away, you need to add the key, following what the bot told you
[03:06] <joeshmo>  really well wouldnt you think its just managing it so that it DOESN"T get all the mem used?
[03:06] <kortec> hey guys -- how do i get back in to the installer menu's package chooser after the install? kind of forgot to install a desktop . .
[03:06] <peacekpr> sethk, this is interesting... so where is the HTTP cups interface pulling the network printer info from?  I guess it's pulling it from a query of port 631 on the network?
[03:06] <joeshmo> im gonna open tons of shit and see if it uses it
[03:06] <robdeman> should I use ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-dsktop?
[03:07] <rajiv_nair> mem is much faster thatn swap
[03:07] <Spaghetti_Knife> somerville32 How do i join ##java?
[03:07] <LjL> Spaghetti_Knife: type /join ##java
[03:07] <kitche> Spaghetti_Knife: you have to be identified to nickserv
[03:07] <Spaghetti_Knife> kitche How do I do that?
[03:07] <ozoneco> what can i type at a console to see what my swap is?
[03:07] <rajiv_nair> !register
[03:07] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[03:07] <Spaghetti_Knife> !identified
[03:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about identified - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:08] <Spaghetti_Knife> !identification
[03:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about identification - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:08] <joeshmo> ok kitch you were right. i opened 10 firefox windows and its using the swap
[03:08] <sethk> peacekpr, I'm not sure.  I know that on my most recent linux install, it located the print server automgically during the install and set up the configuration.
[03:08] <LjL> Spaghetti_Knife: look at what ubotu said *above*, when rajiv_nair said !register
[03:08] <somerville32> Spaghetti_Knife, /join ##java
[03:08] <sethk> peacekpr, I thought it scans only during an install, but obviously I could be wrong about that.
[03:08] <rajiv_nair> type /msg NickServ IDENTIFY <password>
[03:08] <joeshmo> i had to mkswap and swapon manually tho.  i suppose to get it auto has something to do with FSTAB?
[03:08] <ozoneco> how do i see what my swap file size is?
[03:09] <joeshmo> type top in terminal
[03:09] <sethk> peacekpr, I'll be in and out, but since we have nearly the same configuration, we should be able to figure out why mine works and yours' doesn't.
[03:09] <sethk> peacekpr, I'll be back in a bit.  although possibly it will work after you set up that file.
[03:09] <robdeman> hooray
[03:09] <robdeman> I have a XDMCP remote desktop
[03:09] <rajiv_nair> nice:D
[03:09] <ozoneco> ok, how do i see where it is on the drive?
[03:09] <robdeman> ehrm ok. now how safe is this?
[03:10] <yoshig3> LjL: I got an error!
[03:10] <peacekpr> sethk, doesn't work
[03:10] <robdeman> is there no SELinux firewall or something for Ubuntu?
[03:10] <peacekpr> sethk, lpr, lpq, lpstat, etc still hang
[03:10] <eternal_p> good evenign all...can anyone recommend a good RSS news reader/ticker (for the deskop) for gnome?
[03:10] <LjL> !firewall | robdeman
[03:10] <ubotu> robdeman: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).

[03:10] <yoshig3> LjL: "Error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has the version 1.0-8776, but this X module has the version 1.0-9629. "
[03:10] <robdeman> ah so I will need to install Firestarter
[03:11] <sethk> peacekpr, run lpq under strace, see where it is hanging.  I'll be back in a few minutes, hopefully.
[03:11] <kitche> robdeman: if you want an easy way to configure iptables you do
[03:11] <robdeman> ok
[03:11] <LjL> Amaranth: ping... see above please, i think you knew how to possibly solve this one the other day
[03:11] <peacekpr> sethk, appears to be hanging when i tries to contact the server machine
[03:12] <Amaranth> yoshig3: sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:12] <robdeman> do you guys my server is secure enough now with the Ubuntu desktop + XDMCP stuff activated?
[03:12] <ozoneco> using fdisk /dev/hdc3 i see my 4 partitions, they all show 83...how do i make one swap?
[03:12] <Amaranth> yoshig3: you did install from packages, right?
[03:12] <ozoneco> err /dev/hdc
[03:12] <Ash-Fox> !gaim

[03:12] <LjL> Amaranth: from your repository... at least i think he had (sigh)
[03:12] <yoshig3> Amaranth: yes I did
[03:12] <oria1> Hi could someone recommend a backup utility that backs up files contacts, tasks email etc.? I use edgy on a notebook. I'm not backing up onto  a network, but to a drive on my own pc. Thanks
[03:13] <VGambit> um
[03:13] <VGambit> I was just trying to upgrade to edgy from dapper
[03:13] <kitche> ozoneco: is that your hard drive?
[03:13] <Ash-Fox> Yeah, what ubotu fails to tell you is that kopete has no working privacy features and no working ignore
[03:13] <earthen> I'm getting errors when checking for updates saying signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available.  how do i fix this?
[03:13] <ozoneco> kitche: ya'
[03:13] <VGambit> I got some error about gnopernicus and the updater crashd
[03:13] <LjL> Ubotu, tell earthen about gpgerr | earthen, see the private message from Ubotu
[03:13] <ozoneco> kitche: hdc1-4
[03:13] <VGambit> it was almost done, too
[03:13] <VGambit> what do I do now? :(
[03:13] <eternal_p> any thoughts on RSS tickers?, I found one for gdesklets, but I keep getting errors
[03:13] <yoshig3> Amaranth: used synaptic, that gave me an error though. Immediately after that, a "software update" icon appeared in my taskbar. I clicked on it, and it showed the nvidia driver to be upgraded. I did so, and now I get that error.
[03:13] <kitche> ozoneco: does top say that you don't have swap?
[03:13] <Amaranth> yoshig3: hrm
[03:14] <yoshig3> weird...
[03:14] <LjL> Amaranth: the first error he's referring to is a GPG missing-keys error
[03:14] <yoshig3> I restarted it again and it loaded the desktop
[03:14] <ozoneco> kitche: 0K
[03:14] <Amaranth> LjL: oh, that's nothing
[03:14] <yoshig3> How do I check my version again?
[03:14] <kitche> ozoneco: just wondering since ubuntu installer usually puts a swap automatically
[03:14] <Cubed> i got a problem with my wireless - it won't load back up after i reboot. i have already blacklisted the default driver.... any other solutions?
[03:14] <LjL> yoshig3: apt-cache policy nvidia-glx  i guess
[03:14] <Amaranth> LjL: but i'm starting to think edgy-security got an l-r-m upgrade
[03:14] <tom_kelleher> when I put a DVD in, a app loads and plays it automatically but I can't access the DVD menu. What can I do?
[03:14] <schisms> Use gxine
[03:14] <lambo4jos> can anyone help connecting to remote ubuntu subversion repository from local windows machine with both computers connected to the same router?
[03:14] <zOrK> how can I transmit through a shoutcast server in linux?
[03:14] <yoshig3> YES!
[03:15] <zOrK> which program would work?
[03:15] <schisms> sudo apt-get install gxine
[03:15] <Amaranth> LjL: and i don't have an edgy install anymore so all of these people are probably screwed
[03:15] <LjL> yoshig3: so wait, you restarted *twice*? the first time you got the "version mismatch", and the second time it all went fine?
[03:15] <ozoneco> kitche: isnt ubuntu...am supposed to run mkswap i think
[03:15] <yoshig3> I have the 9629 now!
[03:15] <Cubed> i got a problem with my wireless - it won't load back up after i reboot. i have already blacklisted the default driver.... any other solutions?
[03:15] <Amaranth> LjL: oh, nevermind
[03:15] <yoshig3> and lookie there, amaranth's name is on tehre
[03:15] <yoshig3> lol
[03:15] <ozoneco> kitche: working thru a grub install...learning
[03:15] <vader> quick question I cannot install 6.10 or 6.06 on my wifes pc, it is an IBM 2ghz with a Intel 82845G on board video card. What can I do to install it on this?
[03:15] <Cubed> i got a problem with my wireless - it won't load back up after i reboot. i have already blacklisted the default driver.... any other solutions?
[03:15] <schisms> tom_kelleher, what app do you currently use?
[03:15] <schisms> Totem?
[03:15] <dirle> where can I post how to install SCX4100 printer under 6.10?
[03:15] <Cubed> anybody?...
[03:15] <fatalcure> tom_kelleher: try installing totem-xine (it will uninstall totem-gstreamer but that's OK)
[03:16] <LjL> Amaranth: no, no update from edgy-security
[03:16] <yoshig3> Amaranth: that was weird. After first restart of installing the drivers, it wouldn't load X. I tried to get to terminal, but it didn't show. Just a black screen where I could type. So I restarted again, and it loaded.
[03:16] <Mastastealth> vader: wuts the problem?
[03:16] <dirle> had used 2 types of installation not listed under 6.10
[03:16] <peacekpr> sethk, you aren't going to believe this... the firewall "Firestarter" was preventing the client from getting into port 631
[03:16] <Amaranth> yoshig3: odd
[03:16] <ozoneco> kitche: go thru the directions, then the pc doesn't start
[03:16] <fbc> What is causing my gxine to crash X?
[03:16] <LjL> Amaranth: latest -security l-r-m package is <IP_ADDRESS>-1
[03:16] <Cubed> mastastealth:
[03:16] <VGambit> I did sudo update-manager -c, the update ran for a few hours, then locked up and crashed while setting up gnopernicus. any ideas?
[03:16] <Cubed> mastastealth:
[03:16] <Cubed> anybody?...
[03:16] <peacekpr> sethk, i went to allow traffic on 631 and out pops the test page from the client
[03:16] <Cubed> i got a problem with my wireless - it won't load back up after i reboot. i have already blacklisted the default driver.... any other solutions?
[03:16] <yoshig3> Amaranth: that's what I was saying
[03:16] <Amaranth> LjL: i don't know what my version is :)
[03:16] <vader> Mastastealth, when it gets to where the X should start it gives the errors cannot start X
[03:16] <Mastastealth> Cubed: what wireless device?
[03:17] <LjL> Amaranth: .... :P it's <IP_ADDRESS>-2~amaranth
[03:17] <Cubed> masta: netgear ma111
[03:17] <peacekpr> sethk, thanks for your help!!
[03:17] <Mastastealth> vader: what's the specific details X spits out?
[03:17] <vader> one sec will boot it to get them
[03:17] <yoshig3> LjL and Amaranth: thanks for the help so far!
[03:17] <kitche> ozoneco: that seems odd you following the ubuntu grub how-to?
[03:17] <Cubed> masta: it works fine, i know it does i used it before. but after 2 reboots it won't load back up
[03:17] <ozoneco> kitche: its the nst how-to
[03:17] <Mastastealth> Cubed: how did you run it before? with native drivers out ndiswrapper?
[03:18] <Cubed> masta: typing the ifconfig eth0 down or whatever, i tried that once and it worked. now it won't
[03:18] <kitche> ozoneco: try this one !grub
[03:18] <Cubed> masta: ndiswrapper and ndisgtk
[03:18] <ozoneco> !grub
[03:18] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:18] <Cubed> masta: i know it works properly, the drivers are ok, hardware detected
[03:18] <VGambit> I'll try rebooting for now
[03:18] <Mastastealth> Cubed: Ok, so if you type ifconfig, can you see an IP on the adaper?
[03:19] <tom_kelleher> fatalcure;  gxine seems to work really well per schisms's recommendation
[03:19] <Cubed> masta: it's just that there is no connection in the network manager
[03:19] <schisms> See?
[03:19] <LjL> Amaranth: at any rate, there is version 9631 available from http://www.albertomilone.com (keeps a repository, is an ubuntu member), perhaps we could change the factoid to point to it if you're not maintaining yours anymore?
[03:19] <schisms> Totem is terrible when used for anything outside of vorbis
[03:19] <rajiv_nair> schisms: i wldnt say that
[03:19] <schisms> I was happy myself when I realized there was a clickable menu
[03:19] <tom_kelleher> now how do I make gxine load automatically instead of the other app.
[03:20] <rajiv_nair> schisms: totem plays all of ma vids
[03:20] <Cubed> masta: not sure if i can, i haven't tried that. all i know is when i type ndiswrapper -l , everything is installed properly
[03:20] <schisms> I wonder why.
[03:20] <Amaranth> LjL: oh, that *explitive deleted* actually has a repository with a modified l-r-m? i thought he just had scripts to automate installing the .run files
[03:20] <Mastastealth> tom_kelleher: Right click on the video file, and you will see the application used to launch it, then default it
[03:20] <ttyfscker> anybody know of a repo that has iceweasel 2 in it?
[03:20] <votum76> anyone know of a program that is like windows editplus with syntax highlighting and support for editing on sftp servers
[03:20] <Amaranth> ttyfscker: nope, just firefox 2
[03:20] <ttyfscker> yea i know that much
[03:20] <Mastastealth> Cubed: Ok, then try ifconfig, and see if the adapter (I assume wlan0) has an IP from your router
[03:21] <Amaranth> votum76: Ubuntu comes with one of those, Applications->Accessories->Text Editor
[03:21] <tom_kelleher> Mastastealth;  it's not a file though, it's a DVD
[03:21] <AlphaN3> votum76: vi, emacs
[03:21] <Mastastealth> tom_kelleher: Oh...uhm...not sure then! :X
[03:21] <LjL> Amaranth: l-r-m and nvidia-glx, and the vmware modules to go with those, yes. i take that as, leave the factoid alone :P
[03:21] <Amaranth> AlphaN3: Don't tell someone to use emacs, you'll scare them off ;)
[03:21] <ttyfscker> i found the deb package for iceweasel 2 but the deps are all screwed up.. its for debian not ubuntu.. if i try to install it, it needs firefox removed and then wants to remove gnome-core and a bunch of other things i use
[03:21] <tom_kelleher> anybody know how to switch the default app for DVD?
[03:21] <Amaranth> LjL: I'm a bit wary of his work
[03:21] <vader> Mastastealth, I am letting it boot right now, it do take a few :)
[03:21] <Cubed> masta: i will definitely try that. i gotta boot to my other hard drive....... see you in about 8 if it doesn't work =) thanx
[03:22] <Cubed> masta: btw, it is wlan0
[03:22] <votum76> I coudn't find any sftp support in that
[03:22] <Mastastealth> vader: roger
[03:22] <Mastastealth> ^_^
[03:22] <Amaranth> LjL: I'll update my package to 9631 when feisty does ;)
[03:22] <Mastastealth> ok Cubed
[03:22] <squeakypants> hey hey hey
[03:22] <AlphaN3> heh
[03:22] <squeakypants> what's the easiest way to install the legacy nvidia drivers and beryl or compiz or whatever?
[03:23] <AlphaN3> Um.. I'm having problem getting xchat's locale to work
[03:23] <vader> Mastastealth, I did try someting new this time, I am trying 640x480 to see if it goes through this time
[03:23] <AlphaN3> I am a regular of many channels that do not use English, yet not everyone uses UTF-8
[03:23] <Mastastealth> vader: yea, that'd be good. I'm not sure of any cards that don't work with the default and lowres vesa.  Then right-click on the file you want to edit and user the Gnome text editor as suggested?
[03:24] <AlphaN3> I used to be able to configure it such that texts in the ASCII 128-255 range would be mapped to my specific locale, but I've forgotten how to do it
[03:24] <Amaranth> LjL: btw, according to his site he only has 9626
[03:25] <Mastastealth> vader: X is just sitting there? You see your mouse or no?
[03:25] <AlphaN3> Anyone knows of anything that might help? It involves creating a wrapper shell script, and export locale=something, etc.
[03:25] <Mastastealth> And what card do you have exactly?
[03:25] <votum76> that might work
[03:26] <Vishnu> I can't accesss to a webpage untill i restart my router. After restarting router, I have a few seconds to see the page . How to fix this problem ?
[03:26] <Mastastealth> squeakypants: You already have the legacy drivers installed?
[03:27] <fuffe> why is there no suppoort for ctrl C in the terminal
[03:27] <whyameye> Vishnu: I take it this is wireless?
[03:27] <LjL> Amaranth: not if you look at the "unsable" page
[03:27] <rastilin> fuffe, Ctrl+C is the terminate command
[03:27] <fuffe> or ctrl-V for that sake
[03:27] <Mastastealth> ^_^
[03:27] <LjL> Amaranth: err, i mean - the opposite
[03:27] <Mastastealth> Ctrl-V is Shift-Ctrl-V in a terminal
[03:28] <Vishnu> nonot wireless.
[03:28] <Mastastealth> I don't know copy...I just use right click on those...
[03:28] <LjL> Amaranth: http://www.albertomilone.com/driver_edgy.html anyway
[03:28] <Amaranth> LjL: that doesn't make much sense :)
[03:28] <Jeffm515> whats the command to change password?
[03:28] <fuffe> and ctrl C is is Shift-Ctrl-C?
[03:28] <LjL> Jeffm515: passwd
[03:28] <squeakypants> nvm it isn't legacy
[03:28] <LjL> Amaranth: *shrug*
[03:28] <Softly> confidential
[03:28] <Vishnu> just this page:  http://www.gzschool.com.cn
[03:28] <Jeffm515> thanks LjL
[03:29] <Amaranth> LjL: err, he doesn't have source packages?
[03:29] <Mastastealth> fuffe: Don't know, it probably tells you in the terminal menu, where you can click on it...
[03:29] <yoshig3> what's the command to backup my xorg?
[03:29] <jrib> how can I disable all menu accelerators in GNOME?
[03:29] <Mastastealth> yoshig3: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.cong.bkup ?
[03:29] <rastilin> toshig3 "cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf <target>"
[03:30] <klotho> hello... I was wondering, if I have an existing XP installation, can I install ubuntu on it without having to reinstall xp?
[03:30] <Mastastealth> klotho: yup
[03:30] <dirle> I am trying to dual boot vista and ubuntu.. sadly it can't be done without a third party software.. so far I found out about GAG.. but is there something out here that I should know about?
[03:30] <klotho> thanks Mastastealth. is there a particular procedure I should follow?
[03:30] <sc4ttrbrain> !synaptics
[03:30] <ubotu> For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad
[03:31] <dirle> anyoen?
[03:31] <dirle> *anyone?
[03:31] <LjL> Amaranth: hmm, guess not. or maybe he does, since it says "binary/" in the APT line, but going to "source/" or "sources/" doesn't work, and the directories aren't browsable
[03:31] <Mastastealth> klotho: Most people just shrink their windows partition to leave room for the Ubuntu partitions, which you can do during install
[03:31] <dirle> doesn't work
[03:31] <tonyyarusso> dirle: Why does it take third party software for Vista?  (Doesn't for XP)
[03:31] <klotho> I tried that with an existing Win2000 installation and it said it couldn't shrink it
[03:32] <dirle> dunno.. for some reason they interfere
[03:32] <rastilin> klotho, Ubuntu won't shrink it, you need partition magic.
[03:32] <klotho> oic
[03:32] <Mastastealth> klotho: you'll probably want to defrag your windows partition before you do it
[03:32] <tonyyarusso> dirle: Do you have any more detail on that?
[03:32] <dirle> was using acronis disk director.. then gparted.. and still can't dual boot
[03:32] <paradox34690> GCC isn't installed by default in 6.10, is it?
[03:32] <klotho> I thought unbuntu supposedly would do it in the install
[03:32] <dirle> what u need tony
[03:32] <dirle> ?
[03:32] <Vishnu> whyameye  its not a wireless device . Just a D-link Router , anything to suggest?
[03:32] <czedlitz> anyone had any success with 3D things with a Dell Inspiron 6000 ?
[03:32] <Mastastealth> rastilin: Ubuntu can shrink Windows partition, Edgy comes with Gparted...
[03:32] <tonyyarusso> dirle: Grub config would be a good start.
[03:33] <rastilin> NTFS partitions?
[03:33] <Mastastealth> yup
[03:33] <Mastastealth> it resized mine
[03:33] <dirle> grub config?.. gparted u mean right?
[03:33] <klotho> mine are fat32 because I'm a late adopter
[03:33] <Mastastealth> ;) even better
[03:33] <LjL> paradox34690: no it isn't... it's on the CD though
[03:33] <Mastastealth> I guess, since you can write on them safely as well! ^_^
[03:33] <tonyyarusso> dirle: No - grub is the bootloader Ubuntu uses, and would be what you use to chainload to the windows boot.ini
[03:33] <eyequeue> paradox34690, sudo apt-get build-essential
[03:33] <LjL> Ubotu, tell paradox34690 about build-essential | paradox34690, see the private message from Ubotu
[03:33] <Mastastealth> czedlitz: Inspiron 9300 with 3d working here...
[03:34] <paradox34690> thanks ;)
[03:34] <KanRiNiN> Hello.  VLC runs DVDs quite slowly compared with totem-xine, but I use it on windows and would like to make it run faster.  It's using X11 output as OpenGL and Xv don't seem to run under Beryl/AIGLX
[03:34] <czedlitz> what video card?
[03:34] <klotho> how is unbuntu's support for an IBM T-series notebook?
[03:34] <Mastastealth> czedlitz: Just depends on the card. Mine is an Nvidia GeforceGo 6800
[03:34] <Mastastealth> klotho: from what I've heard, IBM support is great
[03:34] <dirle> I will research on grub config then
[03:34] <Mastastealth> !laptop
[03:34] <ubotu> Laptop support information can be found on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptops - http://www.linux-laptop.net/ - http://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam - http://tuxmobil.org
[03:34] <AlphaN3> I don't know why someone would choose totem over anything :/
[03:34] <tonyyarusso> !dualboot | dirle
[03:34] <ubotu> dirle: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[03:34] <tonyyarusso> to get you started
[03:34] <czedlitz> oh ok, should rephrase my question then.  Intel Chip integrated card....
[03:35] <czedlitz> i think an i915
[03:35] <klotho> okay, thanks for the tips
[03:35] <Mastastealth> !i915
[03:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i915 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:35] <Mastastealth> Hmm, 'm pretty sure Intel works out of the box
[03:35] <Mastastealth> except you might need a program to change resolutions
[03:35] <Kim^J> Need some help with xbindkeys. How do I set so I use Windows button + some other key?
[03:36] <lubix> what is channell to get help with my xchat
[03:36] <czedlitz> Mastastealth, ok, well so far so good, rez is 1280
[03:36] <tonyyarusso> !winkey | Kim^J
[03:36] <ubotu> Kim^J: To use the windows key in keyboard shortcuts as a modifier (like ALT): Run 'xmodmap' and see what Super_L corresponds to.  Then follow method B at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=79560 and use <mod4> (or whatever Super_L corresponded to with 'xmodmap') as the modifier. For example, a shortcut to use windows key + d would look like '<mod4>d'
[03:36] <czedlitz> Mastastealth, so we will see
[03:36] <dirle> done that tony
[03:36] <Pelo> lubix,  this is a channel to get help with ubuntu ,  we'll deal with related xchat issues
[03:36] <tonyyarusso> dirle: Okay.  What step do you run into trouble at?  Can you boot Ubuntu and just not Windows?  Any useful error output?
[03:39] <gpd> what's the deal with the beryl repositories for edgy? half of mine are 404 these days
[03:39] <dirle> there it goes.. I used acronis disk director to put more free space on C: so I could dual boot ubuntu.. had problems since then.. somehow the MBR got disturbed by the move even thou it was successful.. then I said let's try ubuntu first.. and I like it.. a lot.. even thou I'm noob ;).. anyway.. have installed ubuntu on the primary partition using gparted.. main and swap ones as well.. and when I went to install vista.. it didn't let me boo
[03:39] <Mastastealth> gpd: yea, check their site for the latest SVN repos...
[03:39] <Mastastealth> gpd: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/SVN
[03:40] <linux_kid> dirle: do you have more than 4 primary partitions?
[03:40] <gpd> Mastastealth: thanks :)
[03:40] <tonyyarusso> dirle: Ah, that's the problem.
[03:40] <dirle> no.. 1 for ntfs.. 1q for ex3? and swap
[03:40] <Mastastealth> gpd: No prob, was on vacation for some weeks to find the same thing! :)
[03:40] <linux_kid> dirle: ok, and sata or other
[03:40] <tonyyarusso> dirle: Windows is really stupide, and requires that it be installed on the first partition.  Install Windows first, and then Ubuntu after it.
[03:40] <Arigato> is there any way to check computer power usage (as in kWh)?
[03:40] <whyameye> Vishnu: is the router losing connection or a computer connected to the router?
[03:40] <Mastastealth> linux_kid: isnt that impossible? ;) You can only have 2 primaries...
[03:41] <dirle> sata HDD
[03:41] <gpd> how about nvidia drivers -- my amaranth.selfip also gone
[03:41] <dirle> 3 extensions
[03:41] <dirle> done that tony
[03:41] <Mastastealth> gpd: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/nVIDIA
[03:41] <linux_kid> Mastastealth: some partition managers allow you to do that but then no os's work...
[03:41] <Mastastealth> the albertomilone ones
[03:41] <Mastastealth> I actually had to use the "envy" script to get mine working
[03:42] <dirle> but I blew the MBR every time
[03:42] <linux_kid> dirle: ok, so is windows showing up in grub
[03:42] <tonyyarusso> dirle: You'll be rewriting the MBR in the Ubuntu install anyway
[03:42] <dirle> dunno much about grub
[03:42] <fuffalo> is there a store like itunes but that works/is supported on linux?
[03:42] <linux_kid> !grub
[03:42] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:43] <linux_kid> dirle: look at what ubotu just said
[03:43] <Mastastealth> fuffalo, I don't know the names, but Songbird has a bunch of them, and Amarok recently added one aswell
[03:43] <AzMoo> Hey, I'm having a bit of trouble installing the nvidia drivers. I've installed nvidia-glx but when I run 'sudo nvidia-glx-config enable' it returns 'Error: unable to load nvidia kernel driver! Be sure to have installed
[03:43] <AzMoo> the nvidia driver for your running kernel.' Anybody know what I've missed?
[03:43] <linux_kid> fuffalo: just get limewire for linux
[03:43] <fuffalo> linux, isn't that p2p?
[03:44] <linux_kid> fuffalo: ya, but i get all my songs from there
[03:44] <linux_kid> its fine...
[03:44] <fuffalo> i'd rather pay that's all
[03:44] <Nego> frostwire =D
[03:44] <dirle> on it already linux_kid.. ty .. and to u2 tony
[03:44] <linux_kid> fuffalo, i salute you
[03:44] <tonyyarusso> fuffalo: SharpMusique can use the iTunes store I think
[03:44] <fuffalo> alrighty
[03:44] <fuffalo> i'll give them a try
[03:44] <linux_kid> fuffalo: wine the windows version of itunes
[03:44] <Mastastealth> fuffalo: Here's tehe amarok article, store is called Magnatune...
[03:45] <Mastastealth> http://amarok.kde.org/content/view/84/66/
[03:45] <fuffalo> linux_kid, i don't actually want itunes, i'd rather give my money to someone who supports it directly
[03:45] <fuffalo> provided they are ok ;p
[03:45] <linux_kid> dirle: ok, so when you click windows in grub, what happens
[03:45] <fuffalo> thanks for the link :)
[03:45] <PORDO> i'm having an apt-get error while trying to upgrade to edgy.  Unpacking libsdl-image1.2 (from .../libsdl-image1.2_1.2.5-2_i386.deb) ...Errors were encountered while processing: /var/cache/apt/archives/libavahi-compat-libdnssd1_0.6.13-2ubuntu2.2_i386.deb
[03:46] <linux_kid> fuffalo: hmmmmm well i say get wine wmp and then use a service from that like walmart perhapps
[03:46] <Mastastealth> fuffalo: have you tried songbird? It's a great iTunes clone for Linux if you want one...
[03:46] <KG4KIN> need help with a pci wifi card
[03:46] <Mastastealth> of couse its alpha, but it works quite well
[03:46] <VishnuSY> whyameye
[03:46] <VishnuSY> I can go to other pages well , while i can't get the only page.
[03:46] <Vaske_Car> how to login to antoher linux box via SSH?
[03:47] <VishnuSY> so I guess my route works well.
[03:47] <linux_kid> Mastastealth: alfa usually means wait till beta
[03:47] <ubun> songbird has ipod support built in now?
[03:47] <Mastastealth> linux_kid: yea, but you never know when someone is interested in the lastest bleeding edge ;)
[03:47] <linux_kid> good point
[03:47] <w3ccv> Mastastealth, where is songbird
[03:48] <Mastastealth> ubun: not that I know of...o.O but it's obviously planned
[03:48] <Mastastealth> w3ccv: lemme look for a deb...
[03:48] <ubun> how can anything count as a good itunes clone if it doesnt have ipod support :P
[03:48] <spx2> ubuntu gives me great satisfaction now i have all i want on it!!! :D
[03:48] <eric__> hi
[03:48] <w3ccv> ubun, my thought too
[03:48] <ubun> thats the only thing i used itunes for, certainly not for a player
[03:49] <spx2> ubun m4v is the only thing it needs to be a good ipod clone i think
[03:49] <linux_kid> ubun: just wine itunes, if you really want itunes support
[03:49] <ubun> amarok has ipod support
[03:49] <spx2> ubun or getting a m4v converter might help
[03:49] <KG4KIN> lshw doesn't show my pci wifi card.  How can I fix this?
[03:50] <yoshig3> LjL: I installed beryl. What's this thing supposed to do?
[03:50] <w3ccv> amarok didn't work for me, iirc too many unfulfilled depencancies.  I use YamiPod
[03:50] <LjL> yoshig3: uh... if you don't know, why did you install it? :D
[03:50] <ubun> beryl is supposed to drop your jaw then eventually you get tired of it and go back to gnome/kde
[03:50] <yoshig3> Oh, and what's the command to run glxgears with fps?
[03:50] <yoshig3> LjL: lol, well, people told me that it would get rid of the lagginess that I am experiencing from windows
[03:50] <linux_kid> K54KIN: how far have you got...?
[03:50] <yoshig3> LjL: But, it hasn't.
[03:50] <Mastastealth> ubun: I've been running it since compiz, I ain't bored yet! :D
[03:51] <LjL> yoshig3: nonsense
[03:51] <Vaske_Car> how to check CHMOD from shell?
[03:51] <LjL> yoshig3: Beryl is something that gives you funny desktop effects.
[03:51] <ubun> Mastastealth: your eyes might get diabetes from all that candy, becareful :P
[03:51] <LjL> Ubotu, tell yoshig3 about beryl | yoshig3, see the private message from Ubotu
[03:51] <Mastastealth> lol
[03:51] <Cubed> masta............
[03:51] <Cubed> i'm back
[03:51] <Cubed> so it's bad newz
[03:51] <yoshig3> LjL: Well what is XGL then!?
[03:51] <fatalcure> Vaske_Car: ls -l
[03:51] <Mastastealth> oh noez
[03:51] <KG4KIN> I installed the card and loaded the driver with ndiswrapper but the card doesn't show in network settings or lshw
[03:51] <Mastastealth> XGL is something you don't need to worry about if you use beryl in Edgy :P
[03:51] <Crescendo__> So - how do I go about recompiling a kernel?
[03:52] <Cubed> masta: i did ifconfig wlan0 and my ip address was there. keep in mind i set my router up for static and it did work before
[03:52] <fatalcure> !kernelcompile | Crescendo__
[03:52] <ubotu> Crescendo__: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[03:52] <Cubed> what could be the prob?
[03:52] <Mastastealth> http://www.songbirdnest.com/thankyou/?sb_version=021&platform=linux-i686  <--Songbird, it looks like it might have iPod support already, but I don't know for sure...
[03:52] <LjL> yoshig3: an X server that has provisions to allow things like Beryl to run.  if you have Edgy, which has similar provisions (in the form of something called AIGLX) embedded, and a recent driver in case you have an NVidia card (like you do), you don't need Xgl
[03:53] <yoshig3> LjL: Well why are all my windows drawing slow then?? They lag all over the screen, like on top of Mozilla and just in general?
[03:53] <Mastastealth> Cubed: so your adapter gets an IP via static...can you ping anything? A network PC, or an online site like www.google.com ?
[03:53] <CaBlGuY> how would I go about changing the application a certiain file type is opened with?
[03:53] <CaBlGuY> I'm using Gnome in 6.10
[03:53] <Cubed> masta: i know what ping is, but have never used it
[03:53] <fatalcure> !defaultapp | CaBlGuY
[03:53] <ubotu> CaBlGuY: To change the default application for a filetype in Nautilus, right-click on a file, select Properties -> Open With, and then change the setting. In Kubuntu, Konqueror -> Settings -> Configure and then hit "File Associations"
[03:53] <LjL> yoshig3: while using Beryl or while not using it? if while using it, well, it was very slow for me as well when i tried it
[03:53] <Cubed> masta: i doubt i can
[03:54] <yoshig3> LjL: While NOT using it. I think I may be running better with Beryl.
[03:54] <Cubed> masta: something is stopping me from configuring my wireless in the network settings
[03:54] <Mastastealth> Cubed: just do -- ping <adress> -- where address is a network IP or a website
[03:54] <linux_kid> Nvidia and linux just dont go together.  we are all linux junkies or else we wouldn't be in this irc channel.  why do we NEED ATi and Nvidia drivers if we cannot even play games on linux...   thats what the cards are for!!!
[03:54] <Mastastealth> if it doesn't resond, then you are'nt connect to your router
[03:54] <LjL> yoshig3: what's your computer like? processor, memory, graphics card?
[03:54] <sc4ttrbrain> warning to anyone using trevino`s repository, installing xserver-xorg related package POSSIBLY make your alps touchpad losing scroll function !!
[03:54] <Mastastealth> oh! better yet, try pinging the IP of your router! :P
[03:54] <LjL> yoshig3: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you don't mind
[03:54] <robdeman> could anybody help me with 'why is my X desktop empty and has only a terminal window when connecting to tightvncserver' issue?
[03:55] <yoshig3> LjL: The windows draw slow. not EXTREMELY slow, but it's enough for say: I open mozilla, and I open a terminal. Say I drag the terminal around, on top of mozilla. It draws multiple windows until I stop dragging.
[03:55] <Trevinho> sc4ttr
[03:55] <Cubed> masta: lol that makes sense, since the router is "first in line" of what i can access
[03:55] <CaBlGuY> very good fatalcure gracie..  :)
[03:55] <Trevinho> doesn't it work for you?
[03:55] <Trevinho> :o
[03:55] <sc4ttrbrain> Trevinho: :D sorry man
[03:55] <rastilin> robdeman, to save on bandwith updating the desktop and to save on RAM with running the server
[03:55] <Trevinho> no problems ;P

[03:55] <robdeman> rastlin: but how can I get a full Ubuntu desktop?
[03:55] <sc4ttrbrain> Trevinho: just fixed it using ubuntu defaulat package
[03:55] <Trevinho> anyway the only package related to touchpad is the synaptic one
[03:55] <rastilin> robdeman, there should be a configuration file where you configure the desktop
[03:56] <Trevinho> mh, ok.... I should update it maybe.......

[03:56] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:56] <LjL> yoshig3: it does that here too. lasts like about a tenth of a second though, after i've stopped moving the window - and the window itself moves fine (while with beryl, the moving itself is sluggish here)
[03:56] <Trevinho> thanks for reporting ;)
[03:56] <Cubed> masta: do you have any other ideas? i mean windows is slow as hell for me right now and booting between two hard disks is a pain in the ass
[03:56] <Mastastealth> "Nvidia and linux just dont go together" Why if NVIDIA has great linux drivers? And from what I've read you can play AMerica's Army, Unreal, Neverwinter NIghts, DOom 3 and a bunch others
[03:56] <LjL> yoshig3: are you sure Windows does much better than that? i haven't used Windows on this computer for some time, but
[03:56] <cafuego_> Mastastealth: Yes, but.
[03:56] <dirle> I have reintalled vista last night.. and after ubuntu.. and of course Vista is unbootable atm.. with restoring grub now.. I will have access to Vista?
[03:56] <kranky> I have a odd question. Whenever I go out to the net, web pages or getting updates, there seems to be a pause between when I request a page to when it starts downloading. Goes a lot quicker in WinXP. Any ideas?
[03:56] <yoshig3> LjL: Yeah, the window draws itself fine, but lags around, like I stated before. Yes, in windows I didnt' experience any of this.
[03:57] <robdeman> rastilin: mmm is that /root/.vnc/xstartup ?
[03:57] <sc4ttrbrain> Trevinho: yeah, ur beryl repo has been amazing, but synaptics run clumsy when using your synaptic
[03:57] <Cubed> it really sucks my internet goes out after i install compiz
[03:57] <cafuego_> Mastastealth: Performance is fine, but for example last month we found out the nvidia binary driver contains a root hole which can be exploited by making an nvidia user visit a website
[03:57] <rastilin> rodbdeman, looks right
[03:57] <Mastastealth> Cubed, well if you can't ping your router, then I really don't know. If you manually add static IP stuff to your adapter, Network Manager will ignore it, and won't use its magic on it...you can always check the wireless troubeshooting guide on the uBuntu wiki
[03:57] <fatalcure> !ipv6 | kranky
[03:57] <ubotu> kranky: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4
[03:57] <robdeman> rastilin: what should I put in it to make Ubuntu show in full effect?
[03:57] <unixslut`> secret
[03:57] <cafuego_> Mastastealth: They are NOT particularly fast in releasing a fix.
[03:57] <Mastastealth> cafugeo_: wasnt that the one in the 96xx beta drivers?
[03:57] <Cubed> masta: i'll keep it in mind. thanx a lot for helping us poor n00bs
[03:58] <Mastastealth> Cubed: lol, no prob, have fun! ;)
[03:58] <rastilin> rodbdeman, No clue. Show initiative. Just keep a copy of the file around.
[03:58] <kranky> thanks fatalcure
[03:58] <cafuego_> Mastastealth: nope, all
[03:59] <yoshig3> LjL: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36545/
[03:59] <Mastastealth> cafuego: huh...haven't heard of it. That very well could be true, but I guess that's why we should support that open-source nvidia driver group :)
[03:59] <Cubed> mastastealth: one more thing....... if i say fuck it and use DHCP... then my wireless connection should be ok? i prefer static because of my nintendo DS and PSP
[03:59] <Mastastealth> Cubed: it might help let Network Manger deal with the conenction, but its no guarantee ;)
[03:59] <cafuego_> Mastastealth: I instead gave money to intel and ended up with an open driver that does 3d well enough for me.
[03:59] <robdeman> rastilin: well Im trying for a few hours now ;)
[04:00] <Cubed> masta: ok thanx, cya
[04:00] <lambo4jos> how can i disable ubuntus firewall?  is there a firewall installed in the default configuration?
[04:00] <rastilin> lambo4jos, no
[04:00] <brian111> Hey everyone
[04:00] <fatalcure> lambo4jos: no
[04:00] <brian111> Im having trouble with hibernation
[04:00] <dirle> I have the option to boot in ubuntu and in vista when I boot the PC.. is that GRUB?.. and if it is.. will restoring it will fix the MBR?
[04:00] <brian111> My computer kind of just stopped being able to hibernatie
[04:00] <rastilin> robdeman, Have you tried "gnome-session"?
[04:00] <brian111> hibernate
[04:00] <tonyyarusso> !firewall | lambo4jos
[04:00] <ubotu> lambo4jos: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[04:00] <brian111> I get a swap error and says try swapon -a
[04:01] <brian111> which i did, and did not work
[04:01] <brian111> gave some error
[04:01] <robdeman> rastilin ah
[04:01] <Mastastealth> dirle: that sound slike GRUB...what do ou mean "restoring it will fix MBR". If you have GRUB isn't hte MBR fine?
[04:01] <Limulf> I'm beginning to use GnuPG. To start building my "web of trust", it would be safe to mark the key of the person who signs all the Ubuntu Security newsletter as a trusted one, wouldn't it? (I have checked the key ID remains the same through a lot of mails and at his personal page at the Ubuntu Wiki)
[04:01] <dirle> nope.. the damn vista doesn't want to boot
[04:01] <dirle> it will reboot my pc instead
[04:02] <Music_Shuffle> dirle, don't you need 3rd party progs to dual-boot if using Vista?
[04:02] <brian111> Anyone have any ideas for the hibernation issue?
[04:02] <Limulf> (all the Ubuntu Security newsletter mail, I mean)
[04:03] <LjL> yoshig3: yes, i'm here. i don't really know what to do about that, though, as i said the same happens here (at least from what you described), and i always considered it normal. the only thing (though i doubt it's related) is that perhaps you should have Option "Composite" "Enable" rather than "Disable" (last three lines of the xorg.conf)
[04:03] <Mastastealth> http://www.pro-networks.org/forum/about78184.html
[04:03] <dirle> it seems so.. and that's why I'm here.. so far I got some research on GAG.. but is there anything else out there I should look on?
[04:03] <Crescendo> What are the default permissions on /home/eric/.ssh/known_hosts
[04:03] <Crescendo> ?
[04:03] <robdeman> rastilin: nice that works. Is this a new session or something? or does it hijakc teh current session?
[04:03] <yoshig3> LjL: what would that do?
[04:03] <mike> This is a noob question but
[04:04] <mike> How do I chmod directories as root?
[04:04] <yoshig3> !composite
[04:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about composite - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:04] <LjL> Ubotu, tell mike about sudo | mike, see the private message from Ubotu
[04:04] <tonyyarusso> Limulf: It would not be an "Ultimate" trust level, but you can mark it to something, yes.  Ultimate means you met in person and checked ID, next down would be you have a reasonably short chain of people to that point.  So maybe level three down from the top.  Also, there's a nice GPG tutorial on some other aspects of usage at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ClassroomTranscripts :)  (Shameless self-promo)
[04:04] <w3ccv> Crescendo, looks like 644
[04:05] <fatalcure> Limulf: I think the web-of-trust works on personal contact (eg. at keysigning functions).  It would be better to trust a key (of someone you meet in person) that trusts a key that ... that trusts that key
[04:05] <LjL> yoshig3: enable the composite extension, which is normally enabled by default in Edgy, afaik. but i think turning it off would, at worst, remove some desktop effects (but i don't think any are enabled, either), when you're not using Beryl. when you're using Beryl, it might need to be enabled, i don't really know.
[04:05] <Crescendo> w3ccv, and who is the owner?
[04:05] <w3ccv> Crescendo, the user
[04:05] <Limulf> xd thanks a lot, I'll read it
[04:05] <yoshig3> LjL: Well I'm using beryl right now with it off and it's working fine
[04:05] <Crescendo> Thanks.
[04:05] <stephan21> can someone tell me how do i get mplayer for edgy
[04:06] <yoshig3> stephan21: Oh boy you have to live with charter too?
[04:06] <valmarko> What is OpenSuse? what are the differences between OpenSuse and ubuntu?
[04:06] <fatalcure> stephan21: install via Applications -> Add/Remove...
[04:06] <dirle> http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/04/27/schneier_infosec/ .. an intresting feature of Vista. .as many other.. geez
[04:07] <ausimage> I have a question about whether and how easy wide screen LCD pannels are to use on Ubuntu?
[04:07] <dirle> part of the reasons I'm having problems dual booting it seems
[04:07] <yoshig3> LjL: So enabling it with beryl isn't gonna kill me right?
[04:07] <tarsier> can somebody help me understand this error: invoke-rc.d: initscript samba, action "start" failed. dpkg: error processing samba (--configure):subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1
[04:07] <tonyyarusso> valmarko: Just another distribution, although I can't speak at all about the differences, having never used it.
[04:08] <gogeta> no lol enabling berl whont blow up your pc lol
[04:08] <gogeta> works finwe on my ati
[04:08] <valmarko> tanks
[04:08] <brian111> anyone have anyclue about hibernation not working anymore
[04:08] <gogeta> you need to support acpi for hibernation to work
[04:08] <Pelo> brian111,   no , check the forum for sleep problmes
[04:08] <cafuego_> it's climate change, too warm for too long for hibernating
[04:08] <brian111> I have
[04:09] <brian111> I get a weird error
[04:09] <brian111> it isn't mentioned
[04:09] <brian111> It tells me to try enabling swap
[04:09] <ausimage> anyone no any issues with wide screen LCDS a local store has both wide and normal width 19" ones.
[04:09] <ausimage> s/no/know
[04:10] <LjL> yoshig3: i doubt it... but you certainly do want to make a backup of your xorg.conf before ever modifying it, and to be ready to restore the backup from a console
[04:10] <brian111> okay well thanks anyway, ill ask and keep looking tomorrow
[04:10] <ausimage> I am thinking of getting the wide but do not want to have too many headaches
[04:11] <brian111> Mine works fine ausimage
[04:11] <ausimage> I do use Ubunutu edgy exclusively
[04:11] <brian111> 1024x800
[04:11] <brian111> It just worked right off the bat.
[04:11] <brian111> and by 1024 I meant 1280
[04:11] <ski-worklap> anyone have problems with sun's jvm & azureus on edgy?
[04:11] <ausimage> cool I wanted to check first before getting it
[04:11] <yoshig3> Anyone know what the extension Composite does?
[04:11] <ausimage> thanks brian11
[04:12] <brian111> Not azureus, but frostwire for sure...
[04:12] <brian111> I can't get frostwire.
[04:12] <brian111> yoshig3: composite extensions are for transparency effects
[04:12] <stephan21> whats the official edgy how to / support site
[04:12] <brian111> with the ati driver you can't have 3d and transparency(composite)
[04:12] <Pelo> brian111,  get the beta package for ubuntu  from the blog section of the site
[04:12] <yoshig3> damn....
[04:12] <brian111> What beta package?

[04:31] <ubuntu22> what your name
[04:31] <avis> vontux i believe you use pmount though i dont know anything about using ntfs-3g and pmount might be outdated.  i wish it were as simple as plugging it in.  i worry more now about being able to access the linux written files to my Administrator account on windows
[04:31] <ktenney> I can't install subversion
[04:31] <ubuntu22> your place
[04:31] <kads> hi there where can I find good tutorials for programming SDL/opengl in ubuntu

[04:32] <avis> vontux if you find out the skinny on using ntfs usb drives with edgy would you drop me a PM please ?

[04:33] <Music_Shuffle> I know I've never experienced slow graphical response on ubuntu.
[04:34] <funkyHat> burnhamd, not all repositories have keys, sometimes you just have to ignore the warnings if you want to use those repositories
[04:34] <yoshig3> See wh at I mean
[04:34] <haxality> yoshig3: it could be a number of things. I'd start by checking if you have the right video driver installed
[04:34] <yoshig3> haxality: I do
[04:34] <burnhamd> this one does have a key
[04:34] <n30n> funkyHat: I mean is it a background package or do i need to be trying to run it
[04:34] <haxality> what video card is it, yoshig3
[04:34] <yoshig3> haxality: tried the old nvidia drivers and the new ones, have new ones in now, they both run the same
[04:35] <yoshig3> haxality: nVidia GeForce4 MX 4000 128MB DDR PCI
[04:35] <julow> can someone help w/ my sound card.  its driving me nuts
[04:35] <haxality> hm.
[04:35] <funkyHat> n30n, it will launch automatically on login once it's installed
[04:35] <avis> i have found graphical response on edgy is slightly more than it was on dapper
[04:35] <haxality> I don't know, then. I have had minimal experience with linux graphics problems
[04:35] <mister_roboto> yoshig3: have you tried hitting the "turbo" button?    :)
[04:35] <n30n> funkyHat: Restart required?
[04:35] <haxality> yes, I couldn't even run edgy on this computer
[04:35] <yoshig3> mister_roboto: I don't have that...
[04:35] <funkyHat> n30n, no, just log out/in, restarts on Linux are all but never required :)
[04:35] <mister_roboto> yoshig3: sorry, bad joke :)
[04:36] <ktenney> mister_roboto: you rock, thx

[04:57] <funkyHat> n30n, or open it up and remove the settings so it says that...

[05:02] <PORDO> tonyyarusso the governance page unfortunately does not tell what voting method is used, and implies that voting is only used when a consensus cannot be reached.
[05:03] <PORDO> i say they just use range voting, and vote on all the issues.  it will allow them to find their real consensus, better than just casually guessing.

[05:05] <n30n> funkyHat: Maybe i didn't configure ndiswrapper right. Wasn't it suppose to create a wlan0 alais?
[05:05] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: apt-get update updates the package list, apt-get upgrade  upgrades packages to the latest version in the repositories
[05:05] <dirle> finaly got to the page I need
[05:05] <econobeing> i used to be able to see it
[05:05] <fatalcure> len evans
[05:05] <fatalcure> rip
[05:05] <dirle> http://www.commonmancomputing.com/y/Learn/DualBootVistaandLinux/tabid/62/Default.aspx .. for u guys to have if others like me bothers u about dual booting vista.. lol
[05:05] <econobeing> when i use photoshop 7, i can still see those windows
[05:05] <econobeing> but for some reason utorrent wont come up
[05:06] <tim167> question about Open Source /Free Software : if a commercial company uses open source code in proprietary software, they don't have to show the source code, so noone can tell if ther'se gpl-ed code inside, right ?
[05:06] <funkyHat> n30n, there's particular need for a wireless card to be called wlan? rather than eth? mine is eth1... maybe something else in ndiswrapper config though
[05:06] <Em3rald> tim167:  that's a good question for #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:06] <linlin> is there any way to reload ubuntu without sticking in a CD and reloading it?  my laptop does not have cdrom drive but i have a half-working copy of ubuntu on it
[05:07] <chalcedony> hugs
[05:07] <n30n> funkyHat: The instructions told me to iwconfig wlan0 scan after i installed the ndiswrapper driver, but it says thers no wlan0 device
[05:08] <n30n> funkyHat: Supposivly ndiswrapper -m made an alais
[05:08] <yoshig3> Anyone experiencing slow drawing in ubuntu?
[05:08] <Em3rald> linlin:  have you tried sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop perhaps?
[05:08] <chalcedony> since we upgraded my box to edgy it's been SERIOUSLY SLOW to change applications. I can wait MINUTES to be able to typein a different screen or get a menu.. is this normal?
[05:08] <funkyHat> n30n, your wireless card is called eth1, so if something tells you to use wlan0 put eth1 instead
[05:08] <n30n> chalcedony: are you duel boot. how much diskspace do you have left
[05:09] <n30n> funkyHat: Yeah i tried that with very little luck
[05:09] <godlygeek> does anyone have any suggestions for what to do about unreadable console windows after a suspend to ram? (xorg resumes just fine! )
[05:09] <yoshig3> funkyHat: Any ideas yet?
[05:09] <stephan21> n30n: i am duel ....does it matter?
[05:09] <LookTJ> edgy has too many bugs
[05:09] <kitche> chalcedony: see what video driver your using in xorg.conf also
[05:09] <LookTJ> dapper is most stable
[05:09] <n30n> stephan21: It can make the performance lag
[05:10] <chalcedony> n30n: i'm not dual boot and it should have plenty of hd .. not sure if it's a swap problem maybe?
[05:10] <ski-worklap> LookTJ, you think so?
[05:10] <ski-worklap> edgy is a "stable" release, is it not?
[05:10] <yoshig3> HAY!
[05:10] <yoshig3> How can I make sure I'm using the nvidia binary driver??
[05:10] <n30n> chalcedony: i don't mess with swap partitions ask somebody better than me
[05:10] <yoshig3> I'm using the newest nvidia drivers atm
[05:10] <godlygeek> ski-worklap: don't let anyone convince you of that.
[05:10] <funkyHat> yoshig3, no I can't think of anything at all sorry... unless you haven't enabled the nvidia binary driver... hmm
[05:10] <violot> Is a apt-get dist-upgrade basically upgrading to the next version of Ubuntu?  (I'm new to Ubuntu, but not new to Linux)
[05:10] <funkyHat> yoshig3, lsmod |grep nvidia
[05:10] <econobeing> arrggh, i can't see the utorrent window
[05:10] <violot> I'm used to d/l'ing the new cd's, and reinstalling ;)
[05:11] <kitche> ski-worklap: it works if you do a fresh isntall but when you upgrade you always should think that there will be breakage
[05:11] <n30n> funkyHat: root@lappy486:~# iwlist eth1 scan
[05:11] <n30n> eth1      Interface doesn't support scanning : No such device
[05:11] <econobeing> it was working fine, now all of the sudden the window doesn't pop up no matter what i do, what gives
[05:11] <ski-worklap> kitche, right
[05:11] <jrib> violot: man apt-get, explains the differences
[05:11] <yoshig3> funkyHat: nvidia               4714676  22
[05:11] <yoshig3> i2c_core               22288  3 i2c_ec,nvidia,i2c_algo_bit
[05:11] <yoshig3> agpgart                33456  2 nvidia,intel_agp
[05:11] <ski-worklap> godless, don't let anyone convince me of what?
[05:11] <yoshig3> funkyHat: Does that mean it's enabled?
[05:11] <kitche> violot: sudo update-manager -c is how you hsould upgrade
[05:11] <violot> Okee, thanks
[05:12] <funkyHat> yoshig3, looks like it's not... I should have got you to do something different though... lol
[05:12] <w30> ubotu, upgrade
[05:12] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[05:12] <violot> Do I have to manually edit my /etc/apt/sources.list file, or is it done for me?
[05:12] <yoshig3> funkyHat: How do I enable it?
[05:12] <godlygeek> ski-worklap: an edgy upgrade is awful.  had no problem with warty->breezy->dapper, but dapper->edgy just flat out didn't work well.
[05:12] <funkyHat> yoshig3, sudo nvidia-glx-config enable
[05:12] <violot> :|
[05:12] <ski-worklap> godlygeek, did you try a fresh install?
[05:12] <violot> Is it a good idea to upgrade to edgy or breezy?
[05:12] <n30n> funkyHat: Something has to be configured wrong
[05:12] <jrib> violot: what version are you using now?
[05:13] <violot> Dapper
[05:13] <yoshig3> funkyHat: Error: your X configuration has been altered.
[05:13] <yoshig3> This script cannot proceed automatically. If you believe that this
[05:13] <yoshig3> not correct, you can update the md5sum entry executing the following
[05:13] <yoshig3> command:
[05:13] <yoshig3> md5sum /etc/X11/xorg.conf | sudo tee /var/lib/x11/xorg.conf.md5sum
[05:13] <yoshig3> otherwise edit manually /etc/X11/xorg.conf to change the Driver section
[05:13] <ski-worklap> my fresh install of edgy has about teh same number of problems as my fresh install of dapper
[05:13] <yoshig3> from nv to nvidia.
[05:13] <yoshig3> funkyHat: what does that mean?
[05:13] <kitche> !paste|yoshig3
[05:13] <ubotu> yoshig3: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:13] <n30n> funkyHat: I can get this laptop to go wireless using whoppix
[05:13] <engla> violot: not if you don't have a need or a lust for exploration
[05:13] <yoshig3> kitche: no duh, but I don't wanna pastebin 350 times
[05:13] <ski-worklap> and that's almost exclusively linux kernel weirdness (hibernate/suspend dont work on this laptop)
[05:13] <violot> Well, I'm a geek, that's why I'm upgrading ;)
[05:13] <godlygeek> ski-worklap: I'm still trying to work through it all, but if i reinstall i'm going back to dapper.
[05:13] <robdeman> hey all is there any good Apache config manager? eg I want to make Apache use /home/rob/httpdocs/ as the generic starting point for Apache's includs httpdcos etc
[05:13] <funkyHat> violot, if you're happy with breezy, it's still supported at the moment, but dapper is very nice and will be supported for a long time, so I would recommend you upgrade :)
[05:13] <chalcedony> n30n: ty much :)
[05:13] <engla> violot: in that case, go ahead, upgrade to edgy
[05:13] <ski-worklap> kitche, you can paste more than one file in pastebin
[05:14] <balder> hi  people  I just asking about some  *.wmv  player  please tell me any one
[05:14] <kitche> ski-worklap: ?
[05:14] <violot> Errr, I mean upgrade to Edgy, not dapper, sorry
[05:14] <tonyyarusso> robdeman: Yep, /etc/apache2/
[05:14] <jrib> violot: breezy came before dapper, so your only option is to go to edgy if you want to upgrade :)
[05:14] <kitche> balder: install w32codecs
[05:14] <LookTJ> ski-worklap: yeah, btw, did they ever fix the screensaver bug on edgy?
[05:14] <violot> Yeah, wrong code name, sorry :P
[05:14] <robdeman> tonyyarusso: is that a tool?
[05:14] <ski-worklap> LookTJ, what screensaver bug?
[05:14] <ski-worklap> i changed my laptop to just blank my screen
[05:15] <ski-worklap> there might very well have been some problem that i never noticed
[05:15] <engla> violot: it might actually do just that. You have been warned
[05:15] <balder> Kitche   thanks ,   so any spetial codecs?
[05:15] <engla> violot: so take backups
[05:15] <Jac1> How to use ubuntu with windowsXP?
[05:15] <Journeyman> I installed vncserver, when I connect all I see is the gnome start up screen (where it loads the desktop0
[05:15] <Journeyman> and it just sits there and does nothing
[05:15] <violot> I have most of what I need back-upped
[05:15] <Journeyman> how do I set it to choose a certain desktop
[05:15] <kitche> balder: just install the w32codecs and it will install the windows codecs that you want
[05:15] <Journeyman> or not to load gnome
[05:15] <LookTJ> ski-worklap: the one bug where i get blank screensaver nothing showing, i change it, still nothing shows, blank screen
[05:16] <tonyyarusso> robdeman: Nope - directory of config files.  They're not too hard to understand really
[05:16] <kitche> violot: see your smart you backup stuff when you upgrade :)
[05:16] <balder> Kitche    thanks  a Lot
[05:16] <violot> I backup because I got in the habit back when I used Windows :P
[05:17] <ski-worklap> LookTJ, are you sayinga normal screensaver shows as blank, or that you can't leave a blank screensaver?
[05:17] <n30n> funkyHat: should i give up on wireless?
[05:17] <violot> *VERY HARDLY*
[05:17] <Music_Shuffle> lol
[05:18] <LookTJ> ski-worklap: the default screensaver(random) doesn't show up in edgy like it usually does in dapper
[05:18] <funkyHat> n30n, certainly not if you can get it to run using a different distro... post a request on the forums (in my experience you're more likely to sort out an issue on the forums than on here)
[05:18] <ski-worklap> LookTJ, i see. well a random screensaver is a bad idea for a default anyway if you ask me.
[05:18] <ski-worklap> blank or something else low-cpu sohuld be default
[05:18] <violot> I'd love to have my Dad's USB external drive to keep my home directory on in case of a crash..
[05:18] <violot> That'd be nice
[05:19] <Jac1> :'(
[05:19] <Music_Shuffle> My home is like 40 gigs. =/
[05:19] <ski-worklap> violot, there are many ways to keep proper backups
[05:19] <LookTJ> ski-worklap: i also changed it, but still black screen
[05:19] <kranky> Anyone with an Audigy 1 card ever lose ALSA playback and get it back?
[05:19] <violot> Well, wish me luck.  Here I go.  :)
[05:19] <Shadowpillar> ;D
[05:19] <ski-worklap> LookTJ, interesting
[05:19] <Music_Shuffle> Err...85 gigs.*
[05:19] <Shadowpillar> er
[05:19] <Shadowpillar> 2GB
[05:19] <robdeman> everytime I do gnome-ession it reports tons of errors on the soundcard - my server doesnt have one - how do I disable those errors?
[05:20] <LookTJ> ski-worklap: it happens when i lock the screen on edgy
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(
[05:20] <n30n> funkyHat: Whoppix is the only distro that i have gotten to do it.
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(
[05:20] <violot> If I'm not back, I got screwd over
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(
[05:20] <w30> violot, get a usb drive box and a used hard drive somewhere. The USB boxes are about 30bucks.
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(
[05:20] <violot> screwd = screwed
[05:20] <ski-worklap> LookTJ, oh, that bug is still there
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(
[05:20] <Jac1> :'(

[05:20] <n30n> Jacl: what?
[05:21] <funkyHat> n30n, you could try to copy out everything related to the wireless drivers from whoppix... and put them in your ubuntu installation (I wouldn't know what you'd need to copy though... I've never had to use ndiswrapper)
[05:21] <Music_Shuffle> And Hobbsee. :D
[05:21] <violot> Here it goes...
[05:21] <Hobbsee> heh, too late
[05:21] <violot> Installing 6.10

[05:29] <econobeing> hmmm, the "rm -Rf ~/.wine ; winecfg" worked <_>
[05:30] <jrib> francois: what kind of quotes are those?  use ''
[05:30] <kitche> yoshig3: according to your log you have the nvidia drivers working
[05:30] <yoshig3> kitche: what's the enable command?
[05:31] <yoshig3> kitche: because graphically my ubuntu is running very slow
[05:31] <francois> jrib, excellent, thanks man, you saved like 15min of work
[05:31] <kitche> yoshig3: when you did nvidia-xconfig it's pretty much the same as nvidia-glx-config enable
[05:31] <jrib> francois: heh np
[05:31] <yoshig3> kitche: nvidia-xconfig just backed up my xorg
[05:32] <kitche> yoshig3: no it didn't it also changed your xorg.conf so that your drivers are nvidia
[05:32] <kitche> yoshig3: it changes your xorg.conf and makes a backup before it does the changes
[05:33] <funkyHat> yoshig3, ::
[05:34] <Z> ???
[05:34] <funkyHat> sup Z?
[05:35] <Z> some problem about dualboot
[05:35] <ademan> is airodump anywhere in the repositories?
[05:35] <levander> ademan: "apt-cache search airodump"
[05:36] <ademan> levander: there's no package named airodump
[05:36] <ademan> and i used synaptic to check descriptions as well
[05:36] <levander> ademan: "apt-cache search air"
[05:36] <ademan> nothing
[05:36] <levander> ademan: probably not...
[05:36] <ademan> it's supposed to be part of the aircrack suite
[05:36] <ademan> and i've got the aircrack package...
[05:37] <Vaske_Car_> I can not install mozilla_mplayer  there is a problem with server... anybody have solution?
[05:37] <levander> ademan: are your sure airodump is not included in the aircrack suite
[05:37] <levander> ?
[05:37] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: pastebin the output from 'sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer'
[05:37] <Z> ???
[05:38] <ademan> levander: well i may have the answer, i had uninstalled the aircrack package, but kept the aircrack-ng package, it's possible that the aircrack package contains it
[05:38] <ademan> levander: yep, that was it
[05:38] <ademan> :-/
[05:38] <danl> how would you search all the files in the current directory and all directories below that one for a string in the file?
[05:38] <ademan> aircrack-ng was apparently ONLY a new version of the aircrack utility, not the whole suite
[05:38] <jrib> danl: grep -R
[05:39] <levander> ademan: i imagine aircrack then should be dependent upon aircrack-ng?  so there aren't two packages containing the aircrack utility?
[05:39] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36576/
[05:40] <gotit> can anybody plz tell me how to improve my screen resoulution, i just changed to lcd from crt
[05:40] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: pastebin /etc/apt/sources.list please
[05:40] <SurfnKid> does anyone know the difference between atom and rss feeds?
[05:40] <jrib> gotit: does system > preferences > screen resolution not list what you want?
[05:40] <levander> gotit: got to reconfigure x-windows for a new monitor probably
[05:41] <gotit> jrib: no
[05:41] <levander> gotit: "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:41] <jrib> !fixres | gotit
[05:41] <ubotu> gotit: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart" in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[05:41] <graham_100> do i need to change any settings on my wireless card when i change my isp???
[05:41] <gotit> levander: how
[05:41] <levander> gotit: "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[05:41] <robdeman> where does apache by default store its ssl https stuff?
[05:41] <Z> ???
[05:41] <graham_100> can you use telnet to search for local networks??
[05:41] <gotit> jrib: i did that and the monitor goes black
[05:41] <ademan> levander: it actually didn't, i think aircrack-ng only contained an updated version of the aircrack util
[05:41] <jrib> gotit: what is "that"?
[05:41] <levander> ademan: ah, i see
[05:42] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/36577/
[05:42] <graham_100> levander : hello there again
[05:42] <ademan> levander: pretty crappy way to do business, but meh
[05:42] <levander> graham_100: hi graham_100, how's it going?
[05:42] <karthik> guys help me....tell me a good software which help to read CHM files
[05:42] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: remove the unofficial stuff you have
[05:42] <graham_100> levander : all fine at the moment still have trouble with sourcing wine 3d drivers
[05:42] <graham_100> lol
[05:42] <levander> ademan: yeah, does sound a little messy, guy who did aircrack-ng should have upgraded the whole package probably
[05:42] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: ie http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org
[05:42] <karthik> guys help me....tell me a good software which help to read CHM files
[05:43] <levander> graham_100: i'm hopeless there, i don't mess with 3d
[05:43] <kitche> !chm
[05:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about chm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:43] <levander> karthik: what's a CHK file?
[05:43] <kitche> karthik: you mean the windows files?
[05:43] <jrib> kitche: xchm
[05:43] <graham_100> levander : do you know anything about telnet??? and changing isp??
[05:43] <levander> graham_100: you want to change your IP?
[05:43] <karthik> chm r like PDF
[05:43] <levander> ISP*
[05:43] <gotit> jrib: what ubotu told me
[05:43] <karthik> to read documents
[05:43] <jrib> karthik: install xchm
[05:44] <karthik> ok jrib
[05:44] <jrib> gotit: that page lists several methods iirc, what exactly did you try?
[05:44] <gotit> levander: it is asking me to select a video card driver for the x server
[05:44] <graham_100> levander : no no , i am changing my service provider (resulting in loss of connection between 14/12 and new years) :(
[05:44] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, installed :) but what is the point, it tried to download from unofficial respositors, why not from default ones?
[05:44] <gotit> jrib: the command in ubotu sentence
[05:44] <tomlins> anyone know why when i run the short cut I created to run eclipse (/usr/bin/eclipse) it cant find my default jre, yet if I cd to /usr/bin and run eclipse it works fine ??
[05:44] <levander> graham_100: okay, i hope you like the new ISP better...
[05:45] <graham_100> levander i will still be using the same router so wil i need to change any card settings??
[05:45] <levander> graham_100: you might need to change how your router (via a web page the router itself serves) logs into your ISP.
[05:45] <jrib> gotit: I meant for you to read the wiki page
[05:45] <somerville32> graham_100: What kind of connection do you have? ADSL, Cable, Dial up?
[05:45] <levander> graham_100: cable internet providers in the USA - don't think you have to, DSL providers - you would
[05:46] <gotit> jrib: ok but the command was so i applied it
[05:46] <graham_100> levander i have adsl and can i run the changes without an adsl conection being live on my line??
[05:46] <karthik> thanks guys
[05:46] <graham_100> levander i think it will cause me a headache lol
[05:46] <levander> graham_100: yeah, you can probably reconfigure the router, but it won't be able to connect it sounds like
[05:47] <somerville32> graham_100: IT depends on the ISP. You'll have to change your username and passwd of course.
[05:47] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, it still does not play this video: http://www.engr.colostate.edu/~dga/pool/normal_videos/NV2-1.htm
[05:47] <_tcc> Where can I set the WM for X?
[05:47] <_tcc> I want to use XDM, and drop into fluxbox.
[05:47] <levander> graham_100: if you have a username and password for your ISP that is
[05:47] <gotit> why its asking me to select a video card driver , i just changed the screen
[05:47] <jrib> gotit: some advice, don't execute any commands if you don't know what they do exactly.  Feel free to ask, but ubotu does say "to restart X, ..." and later says "To fix screen resolution, ...".  Still I understand the confusion.  The best method on that page is what you are doing now with dpkg-reconfigure
[05:47] <kitche> _tcc xwmconfig
[05:47] <graham_100> levandr the isp i am with now i never need to put in any log in details it's on all the time
[05:47] <levander> gotit: it's not that fine grained, you have to reconfigure everything
[05:48] <graham_100> levander the new isp requires a log in
[05:48] <levander> graham_100: some ISP's are like that
[05:48] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: what codec does the video use?
[05:48] <levander> graham_100: well, for the new isp, but in a new login/password then
[05:48] <Vaske_Car_> windows media
[05:48] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: have you installed w32codecs?
[05:48] <graham_100> levander i shouldn't have to do anything at the p.c side though right?
[05:48] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, windows media, i hope so
[05:48] <levander> graham_100: correct
[05:48] <Vaske_Car_> not sure
[05:48] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, not sure
[05:48] <jrib> ubotu: tell Vaske_Car_ about w32codecs
[05:49] <levander> graham_100: only if you make other changes to the router that effect the PC, but you probably won't
[05:49] <joeshmo> so i have my other 2 hard drives now as ext3. they are mounted but it says i dont have the permissions to write to them
[05:49] <graham_100> levander i have a neighbour on wireless also and the git keeps on connecting to my router as i only have a wep key at the moment! can i use telnet to find his network and give some payback??? lol
[05:49] <_tcc> kitche, what exactly is that changing?
[05:49] <_tcc> I am remastering Ubuntu.
[05:49] <levander> joeshmo: what are the options for the other two hard drives in /etc/fstab?  or, did you mount them from the command line
[05:49] <_tcc> With reconstructor.
[05:49] <levander> ?
[05:49] <jrib> joeshmo: change their permissions using chmod and/or chown
[05:49] <jrib> ubotu: tell joeshmo about permissions
[05:50] <joeshmo> i used pysdm
[05:50] <kitche> -tcc: allows you to pick a window manager tat you want to use
[05:50] <gotit> levander: i dont know what card i am using
[05:50] <levander> graham_100: it's probably easier just to connect your wireless card to his network to find it
[05:50] <gotit> levander: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 900
[05:50] <joeshmo> it still thinks they are ntfs in fstab i think
[05:50] <gotit> it says on the hp page
[05:51] <levander> gotit: what is a hp page?
[05:51] <gotit> levander: and its not listed in confguing xserver
[05:51] <levander> gotit: did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg not detect your video card?
[05:51] <gotit> thats hewlet packard page
[05:51] <graham_100> levander my card picks it's network up and connects to it but i cant get web access through it as i don't know the wep key their side
[05:51] <monoxide> sup everyone, I need to know what command to use to install gkismet from my desktop. if anyone could help me it would be nice
[05:51] <exhav0k> hey, something happened and my ipod no longer boots with write capabilities
[05:51] <Epidemik> how do i find my internal ip?
[05:51] <gotit> no its asking me to select a video card
[05:51] <Epidemik> !ip
[05:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ip - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:52] <_tcc> kitche, where can i get it?
[05:52] <graham_100> levander and he is causing me some real bad upstream problems so i have no idea what he is downloading and sending through my router
[05:52] <kitche> Epidemik: ifconfig
[05:52] <levander> gotit: first check to see if "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" detects your graphics card
[05:52] <Epidemik> kitche thnx
[05:52] <levander> gotit: but, if explicitly asked, i'd trust the hp page
[05:52] <gotit> ok
[05:52] <_tcc> What scripts should I modify exactly?
[05:52] <levander> graham_100: why don't you secure your router with a wep key?
[05:53] <_tcc> I want XDM to go into Fluxbox.
[05:53] <kitche> _tcc: hmm it seems like ubuntu doesn't have it
[05:54] <robert11> Hi all
[05:55] <robert11> this is not directly realted to ubuntu...
[05:55] <robert11> related even
[05:55] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, installed w32codecs and still wont play http://www.engr.colostate.edu/~dga/pool/normal_videos/NV2-1.htm
[05:55] <gotit> levander : its says ," it is necessary to select a video card driver for the x server" there is a list but mine is not listed
[05:55] <Vermyndax> evenin
[05:55] <graham_100> levander i have a wep key active at the moment but i am thinking about changing to wpa  key instead
[05:56] <Vermyndax> can anyone tell me how linux uses memory... buffers/cache and calculates free RAM?
[05:56] <levander> gotit: is it just a list of drivers, or a list of video cards?
[05:56] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: pastebin the page that you get when you go to 'about:plugins' in your address bar
[05:56] <graham_100> levander i am told that is more secure
[05:56] <levander> graham_100: did he break your WEP key??
[05:56] <graham_100> levander i do believe so yes
[05:56] <gotit> levander : i think its a list of video cards
[05:56] <levander> gotit: type out one of the items on the list
[05:57] <levander> graham_100: can you explicitly blacklist his PC on your router?
[05:57] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, http://pastebin.ca/276295
[05:57] <gotit> voodoo
[05:57] <yoshig3> Well, it's still laggy
[05:57] <yoshig3> It started up, but still laggy.....wtf.
[05:57] <levander> gotit: that sounds like an X graphics card driver to me, not the name of a graphics card
[05:57] <graham_100> levander also he has had access to my router and i can't find his ip, every time i go into the router the intrusion list has been cleared lol
[05:57] <carutsu> I'm back, guys, now i'mon my ubuntu
[05:57] <levander> gotit: you have to figure out which driver is for you graphics card
[05:57] <funkyHat> graham_100, just change to wpa, wep is all but useless, enabling MAC filtering couldn't hurt either
[05:58] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: close all instances of firefox, 'sudo touch /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/*mplayer*', start firefox, try again
[05:58] <yoshig3> It's not AS laggy now though
[05:58] <to2> hi all
[05:58] <levander> gotit: it was probably the driver that was first selected when that screen came up
[05:58] <gotit> levander: how do i figure it out
[05:58] <yoshig3> funkyHat: seriously man...wow. It's not as laggy now but it's still laggy
[05:58] <graham_100> funkyhat do i need to reconfigure my card going to wpa?
[05:58] <yoshig3> funkyHat: should I pay ubuntu to fix my problem?
[05:58] <levander> gotit: what was selected when it first came up?
[05:58] <bradley> i cannot install themes properly. i download a theme from gnome-art drag it to the theme app and it says that it installs but the controls do not work. how do i fix this?
[05:59] <gotit> levander: i dunno lemme do it again
[05:59] <zebrinha> hi
[05:59] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, you the expert!
[05:59] <niru> zebrinha:hello
[05:59] <joeshmo> i could do this easy if i could run x as root
[05:59] <joeshmo> change the permissions that is
[05:59] <zebrinha> were are you from
[05:59] <joeshmo> i dont know how to use chmod
[05:59] <yoshig3> well HOLY crap
[05:59] <graham_100> can i use telnet to search for the local wireless networks around the area of my house to see if i can obtain his ip to block him from my router??
[05:59] <jrib> Vaske_Car_: firefox was still using totem.  You could have also just removed totem
[05:59] <yoshig3> beryl loaded
[05:59] <yoshig3> BUT
[05:59] <jengc0il> hi ppl
[06:00] <yoshig3> I HAS NO BORDERS!
[06:00] <to2> I'm trying to install e177 following the  http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/enlightenment_depots method,but when I try the apt-get install, it says that no version is avaylable, what have I done wrong ?
[06:00] <bradley> when i said that the controls do not work i mean that they don't install, the slider or buttons just turn into blocks
[06:00] <funkyHat> yoshig3, I didn't realise you had a problem with performance... :-S
[06:00] <jrib> yoshig3: pastebin your xorg.conf
[06:00] <yoshig3> I have already millions of times...but beryl started up this time
[06:00] <yoshig3> BUT
[06:00] <yoshig3> I have no borders.
[06:00] <jrib> !enter | yoshig3
[06:00] <ubotu> yoshig3: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[06:00] <ThePub> beryl is kind've nifty.. too bad it doesn't manage windows as well as metacity
[06:01] <bradley> yoshig3, alt f2 then type 'emerald --replace'
[06:01] <yoshig3> and I can't switch to firefox T.T
[06:01] <jrib> yoshig3: I fixed the same issue with borders yesterday
[06:01] <gotit> levander now its saying config.dat is locked by another process
[06:01] <levander> gotit: "sudo rm config.dat"
[06:01] <levander> gotit: wait
[06:01] <gotit> ok
[06:01] <levander> gotit: how did you get out of dpkg-reconfigure last time?
[06:02] <yoshig3> jrib: how?
[06:02] <jrib> yoshig3: I need to see your xorg.conf
[06:02] <levander> gotit: did you hit Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Z?
[06:02] <niru> zebrinha:use my nick and type otherwise I am unable to locate your message
[06:02] <yoshig3> emerald replace just reloads beryl lol
[06:02] <gotit> close the window i tried to press escape but it was asking other things
[06:02] <gotit> nope no ctrl
[06:02] <niru> zebrinha:I am from INDIA and you?
[06:02] <levander> gotit: "ps -ef | grep reconfigure
[06:02] <levander> "
[06:02] <graham_100> levander do you know how to search for an i.p address in telnet??
[06:02] <zebrinha> brasil
[06:02] <Music_Shuffle> !caps | niru
[06:02] <ubotu> niru: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[06:02] <funkyHat> yoshig3, click on the ruby and switch your display manager back to metacity for now so that jrib can help you
[06:02] <gotit> levander: is it the command to apply
[06:02] <levander> graham_100: i have no idea how to search for an ip address in telnet
[06:03] <yoshig3> wow beryl is pretty
[06:03] <levander> graham_100: i almost think what you want is called a sniffer, but i've never used one
[06:03] <s3phir3> ironic how ubotu uses caps to say that.
[06:03] <funkyHat> Unless it works anyway... lol
[06:03] <yoshig3> funkyHat: there is no ruby....
[06:03] <graham_100> levander ok
[06:03] <levander> gotit: it's the command to see if you are still running dpkg-reconfigure
[06:03] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, do you have a time to see what I need for this video as well: http://www.joetucker.net/start.html  (click on NEW VIDEO SCHOOL and start one of videos
[06:03] <ubox> !flv
[06:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about flv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:03] <funkyHat> yoshig3, never mind, sounds like you've got beryl to work anyway :)
[06:03] <levander> gotit: you have to release the lock on config.dat held by the old dpkg-reconfigure process
[06:03] <yoshig3> jrib: getting my xorg.conf
[06:04] <gotit> ok and what does sudo rm config.dat means
[06:04] <Vaske_Car_> jrib, never mind its working now
[06:04] <levander> gotit: don't do that
[06:04] <ubox> hey anybody knows why should i do to play *.flv in vlc?
[06:04] <gotit> how do i release the lock

[06:05] <levander> gotit: how many lines of output?
[06:05] <yoshig3> funkyHat: but now I can't scroll webpages smoothly XD
[06:06] <levander> gotit: type in IRC what you typed on the command line
[06:06] <gotit> 20-30
[06:06] <gotit> ps ef | grep reconfiure
[06:06] <jrib> yoshig3: what version of beryl?
[06:06] <zebrinha> i have a Palm Lifedrive and was looking for some about run Linux on it
[06:06] <gotit> reconfigure offcourse :)
[06:06] <yoshig3> jrib: I have NO clue
[06:06] <jrib> yoshig3: beryl --version
[06:06] <yoshig3> jrib: probably the newest one
[06:06] <levander> gotit: try it again, you screwed something up last time
[06:07] <jerp> my nvidia settings app is wacked; wacked as in lame (very lame; like a single line in the left pane)
[06:07] <funkyHat> zebrinha, www.handhelds.org
[06:07] <zebrinha> tks
[06:07] <levander> gotit: wait, you forgot a dash before the 'ef'.  It's "ps -ef | grep configure"
