[14:57] <_ptr_> On all of my ubuntu 8.04 machines the System->Adminstartion->Printing setup stopped working. The spinning wheel shows up for a while than nothing. The machines are up to date, this must be a recent development (1-3 weeks my guess). Does anybody else have this problem or could it confirm?
[14:57] <Smoke420> ActionParsnip1, i have followed that
[14:57] <clark> ActionParsnip1, how to get it?
[14:57] <bazhang> clark, what is the chipset; try lspci and paste.ubuntu.com with it
[14:57] <ThomasD> Hi, I would like to compile a kernel with HIGHMEM64G option, but I also want to keep my current kernel, how would I best go about this?

[14:58] <Soulwarp> how do i get into a hidden folder through terminal
[14:58] <ActionParsnip1> clark: as long as your wireless adapter is drivered up you are good to go
[14:58] <ActionParsnip1> clark: if you run: sudo iwlist scan
[14:58] <helo> this realtek ethernet card worked during installation off the live cd, but after booting, it won't work

[14:58] <mystery>  Does anyone know how to find the network manager applet if it is not located in the panel?
[14:58] <clark> ActionParsnip1, that the one i search for
[14:59] <clark> see my private ActionParsnip1
[14:59] <helo> i believe it is supposed to use the r8169 module
[14:59] <ThomasD> Pici: yes, I am already using that page, but I was doubting between option 2 & 3
[15:00] <ThomasD> Pici: the ubuntu way or the good old debian way
[15:00] <ActionParsnip1> clark: make sure you run: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[15:00] <ActionParsnip1> clark: that will get you full updates
[15:02] <ThomasD> Pici: ?
[15:03] <SuperLag> Do you guys know of a terminal program for Linux that will allow you to send one command *simultaneously* to multiple tabs/sessions? (iTerm for OS X does this, but I'm looking for a Linux version)
[15:04] <_ptr_> Could somebody confirm whether the Printing setup working on an up to date Ubuntu 8.04?
[15:04] <GazaIsrael_Peace> im on desktop dell pc, do i need to load acpi-support?
[15:05] <ActionParsnip1> _ptr_: i'd imagine cups is still rocking hard, depends what printer you are wanting to use
[15:05] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, Usually on Dells I have to kill it.
[15:06] <pm2> Hello - I'm working on using libpam-ldap and libnss-ldap to handle storage of all user account info and authentication.  Is there a script of some sort that will migrate all of my existing account information into the ldap database?

[15:06] <ActionParsnip1> _ptr_: try: http://localhose:631
[15:06] <GazaIsrael_Peace> ok disabling acpid and acpi-support since im on dell desktop
[15:06] <Juaco> hello
[15:07] <GazaIsrael_Peace> as you say Jack_Sparrow
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, One sec.
[15:07] <ActionParsnip1> _ptr_: http://localhost:631
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, To get live cd to run this often helps..At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[15:07] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, those last two are what I use
[15:08] <Juaco> my ubuntu is reporting a wrong UTC time
[15:08] <Juaco> someone have a clue how to get around that?
[15:08] <_ptr_> ActionParsnip1:  I got it, but why the setup stopped working from the gnome menu?
[15:08] <Juaco> seems it's shifted by +1
[15:08] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, If you have cd errors... Burn the install disk at a very slow speed, HP and Dell both seem to need that
[15:09] <CardinalFang> Juaco, reporting how?  "date -u"?
[15:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Juaco, daylight savings comes to mind
[15:09] <Juaco> it says 16:09 UTC, while it is now 15:_09 UTC
[15:09] <ianh99> Juaco: Do you dual boot with Windows ?
[15:10] <CardinalFang> Juaco, Are you near the meridian, spatially?
[15:10] <Juaco> ianh: no, it is a ubuntu only system with UTC=yes in /etc/defaults/rcS
[15:10] <GazaIsrael_Peace> Jack_Sparrow: i have already installed ubuntu from 8.04 upgraded to 8.10 and now i want to disable application which is not needed on my pc
[15:10] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, np
[15:10] <ActionParsnip1> _ptr_: no idea, i dont use gnome
[15:10] <GazaIsrael_Peace> Jack_Sparrow: i think i need splash for those graphics while booting to look cute :) am i right to enable it?
[15:11] <ActionParsnip1> _ptr_: i always use the web interface which has stood for eons
[15:11] <Juaco> i'm in -300 (argentina) but right now we are in DST -200
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, Yes you can leave them enabled
[15:11] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, that instruction was for users having issue with installing and we are looking for errors on boot
[15:11] <GazaIsrael_Peace> and since this is not a laptop, ill disable apmd , right?
[15:12] <markiv1982> Hello All :)
[15:12] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, Im not sure if that controls drive spindown as well ..
[15:12] <Juaco> the DST is working, it effectively substracts two hours from GMT0, but as GMT is shifted, localtime shifts one hour too :S
[15:12] <GazaIsrael_Peace> drive spindown? im sorry i dont get it
[15:12] <_ptr_> ActionParsnip1:  thanks for the web interface tip.
[15:13] <CardinalFang> Hi all.  Twice lately my machine hangs after asking for my password at the screensaver.  I think I noticed last night (via strace) that writes to /dev/log were hanging, after some network wonkiness with my ISP.  So -- I suspect the problem is with syslogd.  Any advice for debugging?
[15:13] <J-_> Where can I get gtk+ >= 2.14.1 for Hardy?
[15:13] <ActionParsnip1> _ptr_: its a sweet interface :)
[15:13] <Jack_Sparrow> GazaIsrael_Peace, advanced power.. I am not sure if that spins down a drive after x minutes of non 0use or not.. Kinda handy if you are on all the time

[15:18] <Juaco> savageone: https://launchpad.net/netbook-remix (first result at google...)

[15:20] <clark> CardinalFang, I want to ask how to install WICD in ubuntu?
[15:20] <Fuzzy> soomeone will help or no?

[15:20] <clark> Fuzzy, what your problem?
[15:20] <CardinalFang> clark, What have you tried?  Why did it not work?  Show us you care about it and you're not bothering other people before trying it yourself.
[15:21] <clark> see like the helper dont mind about our problem?
[15:21] <slayton> does anybody know how to migrate a VMWare Workstation VM to VMWare Server?
[15:21] <savageone> thanks
[15:21] <savageone> it might reading now
[15:21] <Jeruvy> slayton: ask #vmware, but usually you simply move the vmx file
[15:21] <Fuzzy> clark, actually i dont have a prob, i need source a good source list :)
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !patience > clark
[15:22] <SuperLag> clark: it's reeeeeeally easy to install wicd. They outline it on their page. http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php
[15:23] <markiv1982> I hv 5 audio ports in my sytem just one is unmute.. how do i unmute all the other ports? i cant find them under System > Preference > Sound
[15:23] <Fuzzy> clark, any help?
[15:23] <ClownSoup> I just installed Ubuntu.  Now where's all those hot geek girls I heard about?

[15:24] <clark> Fuzzy, i need help about install wicd
[15:24] <SuperLag> wow
[15:24] <Jack_Sparrow> savageone, After installing the latest stable Ubuntu (currently Hardy Heron), add the netbook-remix PPA to your repositories and install the correct packages as explained in further detail at https://launchpad.net/netbook-remix .
[15:24] <ClownSoup> rm * -r
[15:24] <CardinalFang> clark, http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=installing+wicd+on+ubuntu
[15:24] <ClownSoup> damn. works in real life...
[15:24] <mikael_> is it possible to move process from core to another?
[15:24] <Fuzzy> clark, http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !danger
[15:25] <SuperLag> Jack_Sparrow: is LTS the only one considered stable? I thought stable was currently Intrepid?
[15:25] <Abracadabra> hi
[15:25] <Juaco> markiv1982: first check what audio system you are using, in Preferences -> sound (chances are that you are using Pulseaudio), then i woulod google for +"my audio system" +5.1 audio ports or something like that
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> SuperLag, interpid is the latest stable
[15:25] <Abracadabra> what is the package I need to install to get kde on Ubuntu ?
[15:25] <blizzo> exit
[15:25] <SuperLag> Jack_Sparrow: see your last comment to savageone
[15:26] <SuperLag> Abracadabra: don't quote me on this... I'm guessing... but I think kubuntu-desktop would do it. That may be overkill though.
[15:26] <Abracadabra> SuperLag: why would it be overkill ?
[15:26] <maxb> Does NetworkManager have any documentation? At all?
[15:26] <markiv1982> Juaco thanks for u reply.. let me try it now :)
[15:26] <savageone> http://oem-images.canonical.com/unr/
[15:27] <savageone> hehe they didn't make it too obvious
[15:27] <CardinalFang> maxb, It's pretty sparse, for my needs.  (VPNC)
[15:27] <SuperLag> Abracadabra: well, what you'd end up with is an Ubuntu install with both Gnome and KDE.
[15:27] <SuperLag> Abracadabra: I'm not sure if that's what you're after.
[15:27] <Fuzzy> ok so nobody can help me?
[15:27] <SuperLag> Abracadabra: if you want just KDE, you may want to do a straight Kubuntu install.
[15:27] <Juaco> mirkiv1982: a8! good luck with that
[15:28] <SuperLag> Fuzzy: what is a "good" source list? isn't the stock sources doing the trick for you?
[15:28] <CardinalFang> Fuzzy, What are you after?
[15:28] <Adam_> I'm editing my grub boot file, I'd like to stop it from counting down and showing the OS menu by default, will commenting out 'hiddenmenu' break it?

[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> SuperLag, The operative point of that paste was the link to remix, which answered his question
[15:29] <yell0w> hey guys is there a way to turn off the bluetooth radio in intrepid ?
[15:29] <clark> wget -q http://apt.wicd.net/wicd.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - <------what key is that?
[15:29] <Juaco> Adam_: maybe you'll like the apt package "startup-manager"
[15:29] <CardinalFang> clark, the repository owner's, I presume.
[15:29] <SuperLag> Jack_Sparrow: my mistake.
[15:29] <CardinalFang> clark, Pipe it to gpg instead, to see.
[15:30] <Jack_Sparrow> np, but thanks for pointing out what could have been a mistake
[15:30] <clark> CardinalFang, can give me the example?
[15:30] <tobywuk> Im trying to set up a user for FTP who can only access /home/ftp  but im not sure how to stop them seeing the root dir and other users
[15:30] <CardinalFang> clark, blah blah blah |gpg
[15:31] <clark> wget -q http://apt.wicd.net/wicd.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - <------apt-key mean my password/
[15:31] <Abracadabra> SuperLag: yes, that is what I am after, as some programs seem to work only on Gnome whilst others only on KDE
[15:31] <tobywuk> Im in need of some help: trying to set up a user who can only see and access /home/ftp.  how do i do this?
[15:32] <Carnevil> could someone tell me where to speak to dantalising???
[15:33] <Carnevil> im having hardcore problems
[15:33] <Juaco> tobywuk: i think your ftp server can limit chdir acces above the default login dir, but in any case you can set permissions to /home such as the user cannot read /home...but it's just a guess
[15:33] <tobywuk> Juaco, Ah thank you, so it would be an option in my ftp servers config?
[15:34] <rb2k> hiho
[15:34] <dljoyner> hello
[15:34] <rb2k> any idea what could cause my UMTS connection to simply drop? (like this: http://pastebin.com/d69d58208)
[15:34] <Juaco> tobywk: yes, in my experience (about 3 ftp servers) it is a common config option
[15:34] <clark> wget -q http://apt.wicd.net/wicd.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - <--who know how to do this?
[15:34] <sky_1> how to open .7z file under ubuntu ?

[15:36] <glade88> Juaco: what all do I add?
[15:36] <dual> I've got a Gmail account, and I would like to backup my emails. I use the Web interface for the most of the time, but I want a copy in thunderbird. Should I use Pop or Imap?
[15:36] <sky_1> how to use it now ?
[15:36] <sky_1> its command line app or with gui ?
[15:36] <Travis-42> I accidentally pressed a key and made an important window semi-transparent.  how do I undo this?
[15:37] <sekrisme> dual: imap doesnt copy to local default as pop does
[15:37] <sekrisme> dual: but you can config it to so it doesnt really matter what protocol you use
[15:37] <dual> Ok, so in other words, I should use POP?
[15:37] <Jack_Sparrow> dual, I impa because I can access them from multiple terminals, work office laptop and keep them on the server until I delete.. Kinda handy
[15:37] <sky_1> uhm ?
[15:38] <sekrisme> dual: pop3 would probably be a setting less to set =)
[15:38] <dual> Not disadvantages?
[15:38] <dual> No disadvantages*
[15:38] <dual> ?
[15:38] <Jack_Sparrow> dual Do you ever access frommore than one machine
[15:38] <sky_1> i dont see 7zip in menu...how to use it ?
[15:39] <Adam_> Juaco: I would consider it, I'd like to learn to edit my grub file by hand, im just worried it will break if I play with it
[15:39] <dual> I use the web interface both at home and at school, though I would like a backup of my mail at home
[15:39] <dual> Jack_Sparrow: Is pop the best solution then?
[15:39] <Jack_Sparrow> dual, I would imap
[15:39] <clark> i do wget -q http://apt.wicd.net/wicd.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add <you>-|gpg
[15:39] <clark> bash: you: No such file or directory
[15:39] <clark> gpg: processing message failed: eof
[15:39] <clark> anyone can help me on that?
[15:39] <dual> Ok, but if I open a mail in thunderbird, will it go away from gmail then?
[15:39] <stopmashin> sss
[15:39] <stopmashin> heloo
[15:40] <rb2k> sky_1, just click on the file
[15:40] <Juaco> Adam_: it can break, (i've f***d my system so so many times). but if you want to try, make a copy of the original and have a bootdisk at hand
[15:40] <clark> Juaco, can help me  wget -q http://apt.wicd.net/wicd.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add <you>-|gpg
[15:40] <clark> bash: you: No such file or directory

[15:40] <sekrisme> anyone knows of a way to mount stuff from fstab without using cli/run dialog?
[15:40] <sekrisme> remote stuff that is, like sshfs
[15:40] <clark> i dont know how to do the keys
[15:40] <tobywuk> Juaco, the problem now is that my normal user can not see the /home/ftp file only the /home/myuserfilehere
[15:40] <Jack_Sparrow> clark, Stop repeating and have some patience
[15:40] <clark> Jack_Sparrow, now one answer it..
[15:40] <sekrisme> clark: remove <you> from the row
[15:40] <sky_1> clark cent
[15:41] <Juaco> clark: i dunno what are you talking about, is it a repo  key?
[15:41] <Adam_> Juaco: I still have my live cd, I guess i can launch from cd and reinstall grub if I had too.
[15:41] <Juaco> tobywuk: again, the default login dir for users is normal ftp server config, just read the docs it must be in there
[15:42] <Travis-42> I accidentally pressed a button and made a window transparent.  how do I make it opaque again?  it doesn't appear to be the alt+scrollwheel thing.
[15:42] <harlemdavvey> hey guys i have a quick question i'd like to ask you.. do you have in mind the ubuntu gnome desktop? i need some help with it
[15:42] <sky_1> so ?
[15:42] <Pici> clark: Where did you get that command? The proper command is on http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php
[15:42] <rb2k> sky_1, so what?
[15:42] <Juaco> Adam_: then do it, it's god to learn text config IMO
[15:42] <Juaco> good
[15:43] <sky_1> rb2k: archive is not supported...i cant only click
[15:43] <rb2k> it should be once you installed pk7zip
[15:43] <harlemdavvey> i have in my desktop some folders like "Images", or "music" or "photos" or "desktop"... if i delete them from the desktop, will i loose every data i have contained in them?
[15:43] <pyrophelia> how do I install sshd in ubuntu?
[15:43] <rb2k> *p7zip
[15:43] <Pici> pyrophelia: sudo apt-get install ssh
[15:43] <sekrisme> sky_1: aptitude install 7z
[15:43] <pyrophelia> I did
[15:43] <rb2k> sekrisme: no package called 7z for my 8.10 install
[15:43] <pyrophelia> oh n/m
[15:44] <pyrophelia> ty
[15:44] <sekrisme> rb2k: ok
[15:44] <glade88> I dont have a ~/.bash_profile at all. so where does my path info go?
[15:44] <a931bw> What name of program which auto download Video drivers?
[15:44] <Juaco> tobywuk: also check the user has access to /home/ftp. That means that dir must have at least read access granted to the user or a group that user belongs to
[15:44] <sky_1> tssss
[15:44] <a931bw> What name of program which auto download Video drivers?
[15:44] <sekrisme> sky_1: works great for me =D
[15:44] <enzotib> glade88, .profile and .bashrc
[15:44] <Jack_Sparrow> a931bw, Please dont repeat
[15:45] <Pici> glade88: .profile, see the comments at the top of the file for more info

[15:46] <harlemdavvey> guys, the folders i have on the desktop are the same folders that are listed in my "place" button on the menu panel of gnome! if i delete the folders "photos", "desktop" "Models", Music" , Images" from the desktop, will i erase those folders of my panel too??
[15:46] <Juaco> Adam_: congrats!

[15:47] <Juaco> glade88: how's going with the $PATH?
[15:47] <GazaIsrael_Peace> btw
[15:47] <eights> henrixski: yea one sec, let me find the link
[15:47] <knopf> is there a way to repair permissions? I somehow hosed up permissions my /var directory
[15:47] <SuperLag> sky_1: I think you may be looing for the p7zip or p7zip-full packages
[15:47] <xxploit> question: is there some kind of fix for brasero, ive been reading that theres problems with wodim? Basically I cant even burn an audio cd it just fails...I'm guessing it has to be the wodim problem since gnomebaker fails also and it uses wodim too.
[15:47] <hendrixski> eights, thanks
[15:48] <mattgyver83> harlemdavvey, the folders on your panel do you mean in the places menu?
[15:48] <GazaIsrael_Peace> where is this sound before the login screen appear? i need to change the sound/audio before the login screen? anyone?
[15:48] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver83: yes exactly
[15:48] <sky_1> SuperLag: i think that i downloaded all -_-
[15:48] <SuperLag> sky_1: I found this by doing the following from the command line: apt-cache search 7z
[15:48] <eXlin> how to get disk usage in terminal. ls -lh doesnt help, because it gives size of all directiories in / 4.0K

[15:49] <sky_1> -_-
[15:49] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver83: what do you think about that? about my question i mean
[15:49] <blip-> hi all,  whenever i close Dolphin fm under KDE3 i get this message from KDE http://img60.imageshack.us/my.php?image=snap2um1.jpg   ... any ideas what may be causing this ?   (my hdd is plenty empty)    using kubuntu 8.04 btw
[15:49] <glade88> Juaco: that is temporary I think?
[15:49] <eights> henrixski: add deb http://cafelinux.org/Downloads/oz-os hungrytiger main to your /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:49] <eights> henrixski: and apt-get update
[15:49] <glade88> Juaco: I'd like a more permanent change

[15:50] <hendrixski> eights, sweet
[15:50] <mattgyver83> Those are just bookmarks, if you delete the folder obviously the contents go away and the link should as well.  Do you just want to remove the bookmarks?
[15:50] <Juaco> glade88, $PATH can be set permanently, in fact you have one that's set everytime you boot
[15:51] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver83: yes, i just want to erase the bookmark
[15:51] <mattgyver83> open nautilus, press crtl+b
[15:51] <knopf> how can I see to which package a file /var/xy belongs to, please?
[15:51] <eights> henrixski: if for some reason those repos are broken let me know i'll dig up another one msg me i may be afk for a sec
[15:51] <mattgyver83> then you can remove the bookmarks only and keep your folders
[15:51] <hendrixski> eights, so "hungrytiger" is the distro/name for the oz-os equivalent of Intrepid?
[15:51] <SlimeyPete> knopf: dpkg -S /var/xy    (I think)
[15:51] <glade88> Juaco: ok, what would be the command? export PATH=/new/path:$PATH ?
[15:52] <knopf> dpkg -S /var/backup is not owned by a package
[15:52] <knopf> how come?
[15:52] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver83: i just have to delete bookmarks? i mean.. i find listed 3 items
[15:52] <SlimeyPete> knopf: try "dpkg -S backup"
[15:52] <SlimeyPete> paths seem to confuse it a bit
[15:52] <eights> henrixski: one sec
[15:52] <Juaco> glade88: yes! that would work, just add it to your ~/.bashrc
[15:52] <mattgyver83> harlemdavvey, thats what you just said you wanted to do
[15:52] <marabout> Anyone have any experience with  "Java Web Start" on Ubuntu?

[15:52] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver83: okok, yes i understood really well
[15:52] <knopf> SlimeyPete: can I do 'apt-get base-files' without hosing my system?
[15:53] <harlemdavvey> thank you very much:)
[15:53] <mattgyver83> harlemdavvey, did that work for you?
[15:53] <SlimeyPete> knopf: you mean to remove, or re-install?
[15:53] <knopf> SlimeyPete: I mean 'apt-get install --reinstall base-system'
[15:53] <SlimeyPete> ah
[15:54] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver: yes it worked but now i have removed my folders from "places" and they remained in the desktop xD
[15:54] <Juaco> if anyone can help me with weird "wrong UTC" problem, it will really save me
[15:54] <knopf> SlimeyPete: I messed up my permissions in /var and want to reinstall all packages that need them
[15:54] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver: i just wanted to do the opposite thing
[15:54] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver: how can i do now..?
[15:54] <SlimeyPete> knopf: hrm... it'll *probably* not break your system but if I were you I would make sure you have a recent backup of anything important first.
[15:55] <rohil> hey guys, how do we add compiz to system start up in 8.10 ? I can't find no "Desktop Effects" in System to do it like in earlier versions
[15:55] <Juaco> i can't synch correctly my time, thus i cannot do kerberos, and i can't login to the active directory network @ my work :(((
[15:55] <knopf> SlimeyPete: hm. I just ran it, everyting works fine, but the permissions of /var/backups did not get changed back
[15:55] <mattgyver83> harlemdavvey, sorry, you can delete the folders from the desktop, however if there are contents in it they will be deleted as well (unless its a symlink)

[15:56] <SlimeyPete> knopf: my /var/backups is owned by root, group root, permissions 755 so you could just do it manually using chown, chgrp and chmod
[15:56] <harlemdavvey> mattgyver83: okok.. but i guess that is possible to do the reverse process, isn't it?
[15:56] <eights> follow that, its slighly outdated but it will work with Intrepid?
[15:56] <skyred> evolution email closes automatically right after launch. Is there any way to fix it?
[15:56] <knopf> SlimeyPete: thanks
[15:56] <glade88> Juaco: thanks!
[15:56] <eights> henrixski: follow that, its slighly outdated but it will work with Intrepid
[15:56] <harlemdavvey> by reverse process i mean bookmarking some directories to show them into the PLACES button on the panel
[15:57] <talntid> skyred, find out why it's closing. try running it from the terminal and reading the output
[15:57] <hendrixski> eights, ah yeah.  I didn't see that one before.   that should work

[16:03] <Jack_Sparrow> hendrixski, Id rather you find the E17 channel and see what they suggest
[16:03] <hendrixski> Jack_Sparrow, they suggested pulling from SVN
[16:03] <hendrixski> and.... I *can* do that, just I'd rather have a package manager constantly update stuff for me
[16:04] <hendrixski> and not have to litter my main install with development libraries and stuff.... I usually do that on chroots of virtual machines.  Main install has to remain clean
[16:05] <Jack_Sparrow> hendrixski, Dual boot two Nix's
[16:06] <hendrixski> Jack_Sparrow, takes too long to switch
[16:06] <hwilde> Hello - I have a feisty box and I can't apt-get install some things, here is my apt-sources.list and the error I get.  Anyone have suggestions?  I am using old-releases repos.   http://paste.ubuntu.com/105206/

[16:08] <|neon|> is there a good how to on dual monitors for intrepid, i can't seem to be able to configure my external monitor resolution any suggestions thx
[16:08] <clark> not solving my problem here
[16:08] <Ronald_> I'm having trouble with my audio and I'm not sure what's going on.. Ubuntu says that my speakers are not muted and the volume is up but I'm not getting any sound.  I was getting sound up until a couple days ago but then I did some updates and everything stopped working.  I just moved over to linux from windows so I'm not sure what I should check.. Any help would be appreciated
[16:08] <knopf> SlimeyPete: can you please tell me the permissions of your /var/log/mysql* files?
[16:08] <knopf> SlimeyPete: I mean the owner
[16:09] <horstle> hi
[16:09] <mattgyver83> hwilde, never actually seen that before, it might still mean that the repo those files are on are outdated.  I would search for those files at a different repo and add them manually.
[16:09] <dayo_> /etc/init.d/slapd
[16:09] <dayo_> sorry
[16:09] <hwilde> mattgyver83, :/   I can't install anything tho.  even stuff that I know is there.
[16:09] <macman_> guys how do i add a path to my #PATH
[16:09] <macman_> err
[16:09] <macman_> $PATH
[16:10] <hwilde> macman_, export PATH=$PATH:/sbin/     would add sbin to the path
[16:10] <macman_> thanks
[16:10] <mattgyver83> hwilde, ive had issues with feisty repos as well, my issue was that the repos were outdated, im dont exactly remember what i had to do to fix though
[16:11] <idem> does anyone have a good apparmor profile for virtualbox 2.1?
[16:11] <mattgyver83> hwilde, Not that it makes too much of a difference but have you tryed synaptic to install?
[16:11] <dayo_> idem speaking of which, i need to fix my vbox tonite.
[16:12] <michaeldoerfling> test
[16:12] <secretwz> hi
[16:12] <dayo_> hi
[16:12] <michaeldoerfling> hi
[16:12] <burkmat> Any obvious security risks running VNC outside with a strong password an on a non-default port?
[16:12] <hwilde> mattgyver83, it's remote so i can't synaptic
[16:12] <Ronald_> Does anybody know what might be causing me to get no sound and what I could try to fix it?  The volume is up and mute is off..
[16:13] <mattgyver83> hwilde, 404 Not Found [IP: <IP_ADDRESS> 80]    that tips me off that the repo no longer exists which was my issue
[16:13] <hwilde> mattgyver83, :(
[16:13] <idem> burkmat: someone might be keylogging on your client pc so be careful where you login from
[16:13] <idem> if the client pc is compromised then so might yours become comprimised with abuse of pass
[16:13] <hwilde> mattgyver83, I need php5-dev tho
[16:13] <mattgyver83> hwilde, i would go to getdeb.com and see if you can find a deb to download and install that way
[16:13] <mattgyver83> im sure its there
[16:13] <hwilde> mattgyver83, I found new ones, but I need some old version I dunno
[16:14] <lasivian> I need to benchmark/test my video to see how good (crappy) it is, what can I use? thanks
[16:14] <Adam_> One of the things I don't like about ubuntu, and I hope someone can tell me I'm wrong, is I can never tell where something installs via apt-get, and to remove it, I have pick through the folders manually. i.e. XBMC
[16:14] <hwilde> Adam_, apt-get remove <packagename>
[16:14] <Adam_> see I tried that, but it never seems to work
[16:14] <hwilde> Adam_, also if you need to find something you type "locate XBMC"
[16:15] <mattgyver83> Im on intrepid on this computer, my laptop im working on has feisty but i just goofed the network settings about 10 min ago so until i fix that i cant really be of much more service
[16:15] <hwilde> Adam_, anything installed via apt-get install can be removed via apt-get remove
[16:15] <Pici> Adam_: If you use the --purge option, configuration files will be removed from /etc/ , but packages will never remove anything from your home directory.
[16:15] <hwilde> mattgyver83, it's cool.
[16:15] <Adam_> hwilde, Pici: perfect, that's what I needed to know.
[16:16] <hwilde> Adam_, sudo updatedb   then    locate XBMC
[16:16] <arash_>  server irc.efnet.org
[16:16] <Ivanhoe> Hello all. I am fairly new to Linux and just set up a test server with Intrepid Ibex Server. I like it a lot, and am larning, but I did have one silly question I am having trouble finding the answer for: Can I change the resolution/mode of the system console?
[16:17] <marabout> hendrixski:   JRE wasn't in synaptics mananger and got a error message via the terminal "Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 resource temporarily unavailable)"  "Unable to lock the administration directory ( /var/lib/dpkg/) , is another process using it?" -
[16:17] <tv7497> guys any sugestion on what kinda wifi card  should i buy for a 64 bit system >
[16:17] <sprite--> How do I remove apache? I tried apt-get remove apache2 but it says its not installed.
[16:17] <marabout> hendrixski: is there another option?
[16:17] <Adam_> hwilde: when i 'locate xbmc' it still lists a lot of files
[16:17] <mattgyver83> hwilde, got my network back up but it looks like it runs hardy.  go figure, do you think the live cd might have the php5-dev package?
[16:17] <hwilde> Adam_, yep but that is better than "picking thru directories" to find stuff.  use hte locate command
[16:18] <hwilde> mattgyver83, livecds dont have -devs
[16:18] <Adam_> hwilde: THAT'S TRUE
[16:18] <Adam_> caps sorry
[16:18] <hwilde> Ivanhoe, you can change the console fonts if you want
[16:18] <hwilde> !console
[16:18] <Swedenisimmense> anyone know how to make comp auto boot windows as first choice?
[16:18] <Swedenisimmense> insead of ubuntu
[16:18] <hwilde> Swedenisimmense, set it as default in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[16:18] <hendrixski> marabout, ah, you got the lock because you had synaptic open at the same time as your apt-get in the terminal
[16:18] <Swedenisimmense> ok sec
[16:19] <Swedenisimmense> ty
[16:19] <Ivanhoe> I am using Ubuntu Server in TEXT MODE ONLY. No GUI installed. I would like to move to 132x50 instead of 80x25, and would love to use a higher resolution for the console.

[16:19] <a931bw> What name of program which auto download Video drivers?
[16:19] <marabout> hendrixski: oops! Thanks I'll try again
[16:19] <hendrixski> marabout, if you want to do it from the terminal just run "apt-cache search jre"  and it should show you a list
[16:19] <Pici> a931bw: System>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[16:20] <Jack_Sparrow> hwilde, Did you get your sources.list working
[16:20] <vigo> Swedenisimmense: oh,,whoops,you got a responce,,,nevermind
[16:20] <sprite--> Nevermind figured it out
[16:20] <Ivanhoe> I have fond referernce to 'SVGAtextmode' but do not know how to proceede
[16:20] <hendrixski> type in "apt-get install"  and then highlight the name of the one you want and middle click (or click both left and right at the same time) and it should paste what you selected, and hit enter, and TADA
[16:20] <hendrixski> marabout, ^^^

[16:23] <ramiro> Hello. I'm trying to set up a cron job by reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto on 8.10, but I don't have a system->preferences->scheduled tasks. Do I have to apt-get it?
[16:24] <simplexio> ramiro: good old way is to do it from cmdline
[16:24] <marabout> hendrixski: couldnt do thehighlight (track-pad...) but am d/l the file using the apt-get method. I'm hoping this package will include the "Java Web Start" app. Thanks
[16:24] <Chewimal> so i just did a fresh install of ubuntu 8.1 and I've never used linux before. I was wondering if I could get some help on basic installation of programs
[16:24] <pozic> Is there a way to get rid of having to give the password everytime to see a crash report?
[16:25] <ramiro> simplexio, I'll probably end up doing it that way even if I do it by gui first, but where do I find the gui?
[16:25] <mattgyver83> Chewimal, if your new use Synaptic, System-Administration-Synaptic Package Manager
[16:25] <pozic> What's especially annnoying is that the reports are shown once in the panel and once in the original program.
[16:26] <simplexio> ramiro: no idea.. havent see one
[16:26] <pLr> Chewimal: Click on Application -> Add/Remove programs
[16:26] <pozic> There is no point in telling it to me twice.
[16:26] <Adam_> hwilde, pici: locate works great, thanks for the help guys, got itall.
[16:26] <Pici> mattgyver83, Chewimal: Applications > Add/Remove is probably better for the first time user
[16:26] <Chewimal> I've found that, but how do I add programs not listed there?
[16:26] <Pici> Chewimal: What are you looking for in particular?
[16:26] <Chewimal> I was going to install nicotine
[16:27] <marabout> !nicotine
[16:27] <hendrixski> marabout, it's been a while since I've tinkered with webstart... I think I had to just click on the "OK install webstart" when it comes up in a webpage
[16:27] <Chewimal> it's a linux soulseek
[16:27] <hendrixski> !anything
[16:27] <hendrixski> LOL
[16:27]  * hendrixski loves the bot
[16:27] <Pici> Chewimal: I'm not sure if its in Add/Remove, but it should be in the Synaptic Package manager.  Or just do: sudo apt-gt install nicotine    on a terminal.
[16:28] <Chewimal> thx
[16:28] <marabout> hendrixski:  LOL that was a good one
[16:28] <marabout> !nothing

[16:31] <Pici> !dualboot | EliteHunter
[16:31] <EliteHunter> ubottu: thanks
[16:31] <ASULutzy> gizmo: Sort of an odd problem, I would check dmesg for anything that could explain what is going on. Also iwconfig could help
[16:32] <gizmo> ASULutzy, wait
[16:32] <ASULutzy> gizmo: Sorry, I'm a bit busy, so it may be better to direct your questions at the channel instead  of me
[16:32] <Vittorio> someone of you uses ubuntu studio?
[16:32] <Adam_> lutz you at ASU?
[16:33] <ASULutzy> Adam_: It's offtopic for this channel, but I attended the honors college at Arizona State before I moved to MN

[16:36] <deany> engemec: with guest additions installed you can resize the windows itself
[16:36] <ASULutzy> engemec: Have you installed the guest add ons?
[16:37] <engemec> nops
[16:37] <deany> engemec:  run the screen resolution util and watch it update the size info
[16:37] <deany> as you resize the window
[16:37] <Ivanhoe> Hello all. Can anyone help me change the terminal paramaters of the text only console in Server 8.10 (No GUI/X installed)? I would like 132x50 instead of 80x25.
[16:38] <deany> i cant get it to anything more than 1024, so thats what i do
[16:38] <mattgyver83> how do you connect to an Ad-Hoc network?
[16:40] <ASULutzy> Ivanhoe: I really ought to know how to do that, but you could try #ubuntu-server, the folks there are usually pretty pro at these things ;)
[16:40] <topsub> command line i would like to move everything inside a folder back a directory. how can i do this?
[16:41] <dominiques> cp
[16:41] <ASULutzy> topsub: moving everything from the current folder to the folder above it would be mv ./* ../
[16:41] <Ivanhoe> topsub mv * ./..
[16:42] <EliteHunter> What shud i have to download ubuntu 8.10 or 8.04LTS? I'm going to use Ubuntu 1st time.
[16:42] <Pici> EliteHunter: 8.10 is the latest, that would probably be the best for you.
[16:42] <PolitikerNEU> For me, ubuntu 8.04 was more stable than 8.10
[16:42] <ASULutzy> EliteHunter: Both should work, 8.04 will be supported for a longer amount of time than 8.04, and some things about 8.04 seem to be more stable, but 8.10 has better support for hardware, and is newer and shinier
[16:43] <EliteHunter> ok
[16:43] <EliteHunter> I m going to download 8.10
[16:43] <engemec> i did download the last virtualbox version, i did a virtual machine with fedora 10, but.... the maximun resolution that i got was 1024x768 and my notebook aceppt 1200x800. I read an article and sugested this command line: VBoxMachine controlvm "virtualmachinename" setvideomodehint "1200" "800" "32". Unhapiness, don't work. Many erros about comand line and parameters.
[16:44] <EliteHunter> is it is must to download  form ubuntu website. or i can use torrent?
[16:44] <PolitikerNEU> EliteHunter: Both is possible, the ubuntu website offers a torrent too
[16:44] <EliteHunter> really???
[16:44] <PolitikerNEU> engemec: Wow, I have only got 800x600 in Virtualbox :-(
[16:44] <EliteHunter> can pass the link?
[16:45] <gizmo> help me on how can i solve my wireless/wifi..
[16:45] <deany> PolitikerNEU: with guest additions installed?  soemthings wrong there.
[16:45] <Pici> EliteHunter: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/downloadmirrors#bt
[16:45] <PolitikerNEU> 32bit: http://releases.ubuntu.com/intrepid/ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[16:45] <EliteHunter> Pici: thanx
[16:45] <ASULutzy> engemec: Did you read what everyone wrote about installing the guest additions?
[16:45] <engemec> PolitikerNEU, :)
[16:45] <EliteHunter> PolitikerNEU: thanks to u also
[16:46] <ASULutzy> gizmo: You'll have better luck actually asking your question and explaining what you've done and when your problem happens, etc... Saying, "Wireless HELP" won't get any useful responses
[16:46] <ASULutzy> engemec: From the VBox menu, click Devices, and then install guest additions
[16:47] <engemec> ASULutzy, i'll search about the guest additions.
[16:47] <engemec> ASULutzy, i'll see it.
[16:47] <gizmo> ASULutzy, before i shut down my laptop..my wireless is ok..auto connect..then after i shut down..i on my laptop back..the wireless not auto connect..until now... i have to use my wired network to connect to internet..
[16:47] <gizmo> is that ok ?
[16:48] <morpheus> ciao a tutti
[16:49] <ASULutzy> gizmo: When the problem is happening, try opening a terminal and typing iwconfig and maybe also dmesg
[16:49] <ASULutzy> gizmo: The output from those could be useful
[16:49] <MOUD> Hey all
[16:49] <gizmo> i think you should see my dmesg ASULutzy
[16:49] <engemec> ASULutzy, nothing happens.
[16:49] <gizmo> i paste to your pm k
[16:49] <EliteHunter> Please tell me is ubuntu is support NTFS and FAT32 and FAT???
[16:50] <Ivanhoe> EliteHunter, Ubuntu can read and write to fat/fat32 and read ntfs ootb
[16:50] <ASULutzy> engemec: After you install the guest additions you have to go inside the guest OS and actually install them
[16:50] <ASULutzy> engemec: Clicking install guest additions just mounts the cd inside the VM OS
[16:50] <MOUD> I'm having a problem with my video card....
[16:50] <gizmo> ASULutzy, you see?
[16:50] <ASULutzy> !pm | gizmo
[16:51] <ASULutzy> !paste | gizmo
[16:51] <Pici> EliteHunter: However, you cannot install Ubuntu on to NTFS or FAT partitions.

I have it connected to an external monitor and I want it to give me higher resolution than the stock eeepc.  When I go to menu>preferences>screen resolution it does not show any options higher than 720:400.  This monitor supports much higher resolutions.  Do I need to install nvidia drivers?
[16:55] <engemec> ASULutzy, thanks a lot.
[16:55] <ASULutzy> gizmo: Left click it, you should see a dropdown of available wireless networks. If you don't see that, do sudo iwlist wlan0 scanning inside a terminal and pastebin the output
[16:55] <engemec> ASULutzy, is working!
[16:56] <deany> EliteHunter: look at the guides for earlier versions too, they contain things not in newest, but still relevant.

[17:24] <SingAlong> dayo_: ?

[17:55] <katena> à ïî ðóññêè êòî-òî øàðèò?
[17:55] <katena> )))))
[17:55] <cbassett> well in that case i want to just uninstall ubuntu from ext hd and grub and install ubuntu on another hd(so when i want to use ubuntu i will put in the other hd)
[17:55] <CoJaBo-Dell> jughead: IIRC, the firmware updater creates a bootdisk.
[17:56] <Axz> Hi there, any idea if there are VGa drivers for ATI Radeon 4850?
[17:56] <JohnAnderson`> ty zc00gii
[17:56] <dmi3on> Jack_Sparrow, so i neew any way to change some settings on router ?
[17:56] <mani_> can any body tell me how to browse nokia phone by linux
[17:57] <zc00gii> cbassett: boot the Ubuntu Live CD and go to System->Administration->Partition Editor then delete the Extended/Swap partition aswell as the ext3 partition and make the NTFS partition bigger
[17:57] <vigo> ! ati radeon
[17:57] <vigo> !ati
[17:57] <JohnAnderson`> ubuntu_first_tim have u tried searching google ?
[17:57] <roger_> dmi3on, you try using firefox, i think most use http://<IP_ADDRESS>
[17:58] <Ean> Hi all! I got a problem with Pidgin. For some reason I accidentaly removed a group of contacts. But in vista all the contacts are left, how can I get back all my contact in the list? :P
[17:58] <zc00gii> JohnAnderson`: no problem :D
[17:58] <dmi3on> roger_, never did it before i did once this and it was like year ago, i need lots of help
[17:59] <cbassett> so basically delete everything off my ext hd and put then repartition it?
[17:59] <vigo> AXZ: did you see that link?
[17:59] <roger_> you will be asked for login for your router, that i can't tell you, refer to user manual maybe
[17:59] <Axz> vigo, yes
[17:59] <vigo> Okee dokee
[17:59] <zc00gii> JohnAnderson`: you can change it some to hav a custom logo, read the bash script and explore the folders, I used it for a Mac clone
[17:59] <Jack_Sparrow> dmi3on, Info on setting up port forwarding is router specific and you would need to research that for your hardware.  NOt hard, just hardware speciific instructions
[18:00] <Pici> !portforward > dmi3on
[18:00] <outofthemadness> does anyone in here know how I might add syntax highlighting for another language in gedit?
[18:01] <Jerrr> Quick question, In Synaptic, the 180 nvidia modules/whatever, are those the latest drivers?
[18:01] <lvlefisto> Ean: try #pidgin
[18:01] <tritium> Jerrr: yes, the latest available in the repositories
[18:01] <dmi3on> Jack_Sparrow, i need to cofigure router right ?
[18:01] <trippss> hello. for some reason starting a couple of days ago my box stopped resolving DNS, no matter where I'm logged in. /etc/resolve.conf checks out ok, but dig doesn't resolve to anything, etc. I'm using DHCP to connect. I'm runnign intrepid ibex
[18:02] <Pici> trippss: Is it possible that your ISP's DNS server is down?
[18:02] <Jack_Sparrow> dmi3on, Let me see if I have a link on setting up a remote desktop
[18:02] <trippss> Pici, no matter where I am. I've traveled through 3 time zones and dozens of ISPs - same thing
[18:02] <majnoon> pici that why i use opendns
[18:02] <JohnAnderson`> damit i just found the solution to that guys prob who was asking how to find out the hd model #

[18:03] <jim_p> hello people
[18:03] <guest1001> hi
[18:04] <Guest13752> My ubuntu system begins to lock up after about 5 or 10 minutes and the caps lock begins to flash. I know that this has been somewhat spoken about, however this only started to occur after a software update.  Please help.  Thank you
[18:04] <jim_p> has anyone tried shiftfox? i gave it a shot today and i did not see the difference i expected. not to mention that it did not find the flash plugin
[18:04] <trippss> note no settings have changed whatsoever. my dual boot into winblows works fine so there's nothing wrong with the NIC(s)
[18:04] <JohnAnderson`> hey ubuntu_first_tim did u find out the answer yet
[18:04] <ubuntu_first_tim> hello
[18:05] <trippss> I can ping the IP addresses (used the IP for IRC to log on here)
[18:05] <jim_p> Guest13752, ubuntu 8.10? and ati? and fglrx?
[18:05] <Jerrr> tritium : When I install the 180, it doesnt give me full use of my monitor or its native resolution; how would I fix that?
[18:05] <Pici> trippss: Does `dig @<IP_ADDRESS> google.com` return any results?
[18:05] <JohnAnderson`> hello ubuntu_first_tim
[18:05] <janelle> i tryed to get on my pc this morning and my mouse and keyboard were unresponsive and my screen of course was black due to power setting being turned on so i couldnt see if it was frozen or it was just my mouse or keyboard acting upany ideas as to what might have been the issue also is there a error log of sorts that i can look at?
[18:05] <soreau> Guest13752: This is called a kernel panic. Typically, it is caused by something in kernel space doing something it's not supposed to ie. a driver
[18:05] <VectorM> lo all.  i  have a huge problem right now, got a flight to catch in a couple horus and i need to get this display working.  im booting up the ubuntu live installer, it displays the ubuntu progress bar, but then shows nothing on my lcd monitor.  the lcd is a dell widescreen 19inch.  its optimum is 1440x900.  ive used this display to install ubuntu before
[18:05] <majnoon> tripps, look at http://www.opendns.com/
[18:05] <VectorM> trlalt- and ctrlalt+ do absolutly nothing too
[18:05] <ozehka> hello, i want to install a network printer over ipp. the problem is the verification. i can only type in a password, the username is set default to my ubuntu-username, but i need to use a different one for the printserver...
[18:05] <Guest13752> Can it be a problem with the wireless driver?
[18:05] <soreau> Guest13752: So which driver modules do you use for your hardware? Yes
[18:06] <VectorM> any thoughts on how i can change it?  apparently, even xrandr isnt working
[18:06] <dmi3on> Jack_Sparrow, i am not on local network
[18:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Guest13752, I have seen a couple of these that were network card related.  But I dont have any answers, merely an observation
[18:06] <soreau> Guest13752: It can definitely be a wifi driver
[18:06] <Guest13752> Also why would it only occur after the software update?
[18:06] <m0RrE> anoyone know if it's possible to get the gnome terminal to flash in the taskbar when hilighted in irssi?
[18:06] <trippss> Pici, yes it does
[18:06] <trippss> Pici, that's the opendns server right?
[18:07] <Jack_Sparrow> dmi3on, is your modem also a router? is ther a router at the other end of the remote setup?
[18:07] <Pici> trippss: yes.
[18:07] <Guest13752> It is an intel wireless card
[18:07] <trippss> Pici, ok using that server in /etc/resolv.conf by putting it in manually
[18:07] <bluej> when I run rsync to backup my home dir to an external usb drive, the system freezes completely about half way through... any ideas why?
[18:07] <Guest13752> I dont know anything more than that.  I am very new to Linux ( as long as it gets me away from Vista. I just want to learn)
[18:08] <soreau> Guest13752: It may be a different version of the kernel with the same driver, a different version of the driver with the same kernel or that both have been upgraded. If you feel comfortable doing so, you could get the source code and compile a later version of the wifi driver yourself
[18:08] <Ean> lvlefisto: Oh, thanks. -.- :P
[18:08] <dmi3on> Jack_Sparrow, at office is 16 computers connected to one router and ISP (no server)  at home i have ubuntu and linksys wireless router
[18:08] <VectorM> any idea why ctrl-alt-- doesnt mak the resolution lower, and why trying two monitors even, the x desktop will not appear
[18:08] <jim_p> has anyone tried shiftfox? i gave it a shot today and i did not see the difference i expected. not to mention that it did not find the flash plugin
[18:08] <trippss> Pici, is there a way to use those DNS servers even when connecting dhcp across the system?
[18:08] <Pici> trippss: If you add the line: prepend domain-name-servers <IP_ADDRESS>, <IP_ADDRESS>;       to /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf     you will not have to modify /etc/resolv.conf again.
[18:09] <trippss> Pici, ah excellent
[18:09] <soreau> Guest13752: But it is important to understand what exactly is causing this first. I recommend unloading the wifi driver as soon as you boot and use the pc for awhile to confirm this is in fact the problem
[18:09] <sri> I have a question on the unlock login keyring
[18:09] <Guest13752> I am not even close to building my own driver yet
[18:09] <sri> if you don't know your password and it's preventing you from using ssh, how do I reset the password/
[18:10] <epictetus> sudo passwd (username)
[18:10] <zleap> Guest13752, where are you from
[18:10] <hatter243> soreau, I had the same problem for a long time, I just flipped the power switch on my wifi card and I never saw that error again
[18:10] <Guest13752> Chicago
[18:10] <janelle> anyone have any guesses
[18:10] <Jerrr> Anyone know how to get a sound card not supported by asla working? Ubuntu reconizes it with aplay -l and lpsci
[18:10] <sri> epictetus: well it won't take my login password at all, the one that works with sudo.
[18:10] <soreau> hatter243: I'm not the one with the problem ;)
[18:10] <VectorM> any idea why ctrl-alt-- doesnt mak the resolution lower, and why trying two monitors even, the x desktop will not appear
[18:11] <Guest13752> I have literally only been running linux for about a month now
[18:11] <Guest13752> if tht
[18:11] <soreau> Guest13752: Ok, do you know how to use pastebin?
[18:11] <dmi3on> Jack_Sparrow, are you here yes on both sides there are routers
[18:12] <ld50> I ssh to an ubuntu machine, but I get "Connection reset by peer" after some minutes, it only happens when i'm running top, any idea?
[18:12] <a931bw> Народ!
[18:12] <a931bw> У меня Фильм Показывает Синим!
[18:12] <Pici> !ru | a931bw
[18:12] <Guest13752> not even close, sorry, it took me a long time just to get it installed correctly. I know that sounds weak and stupid but I am trying
[18:12] <a931bw> Sorr
[18:13] <a931bw> I'm watching
[18:13] <a931bw> Film

[18:14] <jim_p> ld50, top? the process display app?
[18:14] <szonek> how can i run something on login?
[18:14] <szonek> console login
[18:14] <ld50> jim_p, yes
[18:14] <Jack_Sparrow> !startup
[18:15] <szonek> automatically of course
[18:15] <soreau> Guest13752: Alright, well you're at the right place but when you get help in a busy channel like this, you need to specify to whom you are talking so that they get notified just like I am using your nick to notify you
[18:15] <jim_p> szonek, run it with no de present?
[18:15] <szonek> Jack_Sparrow i want to run something on *console* login
[18:15] <jim_p> ld50, sorry mate, i dont know
[18:15] <szonek> jim_p de?
[18:15] <Jack_Sparrow> szonek, see !boot
[18:16] <jim_p> szonek, desktop enviroment
[18:16] <dmi3on> Jack_Sparrow, ?
[18:16] <szonek> jim_p yes
[18:16] <szonek> !boot
[18:16] <a1len_> Heya guys. I want to set up a server on a partition. Is this even possible, or do I need a dedicated machine or something for that?
[18:16] <Guest13752> I am sorry. I would be more than happy to apologize to everyone, in fact I do.  I am just trying to figure out what is wrong
[18:16] <szonek> i wan't to run fortune on login
[18:16] <Guest13752> strike that, what I am doing wrong or have done wrong
[18:17] <szonek> want*
[18:17] <Katangawise> Hi all! It's ok with VirtualBox! Thanks a lot to people who helped me! :))
[18:17] <soreau> Guest13752: So first, open a terminal (Apps>Accessories>Terminal) and run this command 'lspci' and pastebin the output. This will show which modules are loaded on your system and I can tell you which one to try and unload to narrow down the problem
[18:17] <Katangawise> jim_p, Hi, what's up! :)
[18:17] <soreau> ! pastebin | Guest13752
[18:17] <jim_p> Katangawise, hi mate. what did you do this time in vbox?
[18:17] <VectorM>  will ctrl-alt-backspace kill X?
[18:17] <jim_p> VectorM, it will restart it
[18:18] <dmi3on> for remote desktop what what is better ultraVNC NX or RealVNC i need vista serveer and ubuntu viewer
[18:18] <Katangawise> I need, Visual Studio... Run it in Vbox.. But couldn't open window to full screen.. After i read the manuals all clear! :)
[18:19] <jim_p> Katangawise, the vbox window?
[18:19] <Katangawise> jim_p, yep!
[18:19] <Katangawise> :)
[18:19] <janelle> does ubuntu have a error log i can acsess
[18:19] <jim_p> Katangawise, ctrl +f ?
[18:19] <VectorM> how do i kill x?
[18:20] <m0RrE> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[18:20] <Stormx2> VectorM, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[18:20] <jim_p> janelle, loads, depending on what app did the error
[18:20] <Stormx2> bach
[18:20] <Stormx2> bah*
[18:20] <epictetus> sri: how about just passwd with no arguments to reset the current user's passworD?
[18:20] <epictetus> it'll probably ask you for the old pw though
[18:20] <Katangawise> jim_p, but if you didn't install additions it doesn't works good..
[18:20] <jim_p> Katangawise, lol, true
[18:20] <epictetus> the only other way I know of to "fix" that is to boot into single user mode or init=/bin/bash, mount the filesystems by hand, then use passwd to reset them as root
[18:21] <Absolute0> I have a dual head setup and when adding things onto the panel on the second screen nothing happens.
[18:21] <cbassett1> who was helping me before my reboot?
[18:21] <jim_p> not me :P
[18:21] <|911> oi, quick question on belkin wireless, anyone familiar
[18:22] <janelle> jim_p, im trying to find out why either my keyboard and mouse froze or my system i tryed to get om my pc but my keyboard and mouse were unresponsive and my screen was black due to the powersaver settings so i couldnt see anything so i had to reboot
[18:22] <Katangawise> jim_p, Tell me please.. Could you help me with my wireless? Until now I didn't solve the problem...:(

[18:27] <jim_p> Katangawise, did you remove network manager as i (may have) suggested? is the module for your wireless loaded?
[18:27] <Jeruvy> malibu: so?
[18:28] <dmi3on> no help :(
[18:28] <jim_p> dmi3on, port forwarfing in the home pc
[18:28] <malibu> Jeruvy: So.. how long does it take to put a package on the repo?
[18:28] <zleap> ok
[18:28] <Pici> !latest | malibu
[18:28] <Jeruvy> malibu: great question for the maintainer :)
[18:28] <zleap> there are apps to connect to remote systems,  for that
[18:28] <Katangawise> jim_p, remove network manager? but i must have some maneger, no? Modules looks ok...
[18:28] <dmi3on> jim_p, at home i can do what ever i whant at work i dont whant change any settings in router
[18:29] <janelle> jim_p, do you want to see my xorg stuff i can pastebin it?
[18:29] <jim_p> oh! one at a time
[18:29] <|911> lol
[18:29] <malibu> ubottu: Oh is Python 2.6 not stable?  I just want it because it has features that I need
[18:29] <bugmanx2001> where can i configure (add/remove) virtual terminals.  (i.e. Ctrl+Alt+F1, F2, F3)
[18:29] <ASULutzy> jim_p: I'm not exactly a huge fan of network manager myself, but giving advice to uninstall it, you better be in it for the long haul after having someone remove it ;)
[18:29] <dmi3on> jim_p, now i am at work can you tell me what i need to install and set on vista computer please
[18:30] <jim_p> Katangawise, remove nm and install something else like network-config. and please pastebin your lspci -k
[18:30] <Jerrr> Anyone know how to get a sound card not supported by asla working? Ubuntu reconizes it with aplay -l and lpsci
[18:30] <Pici> malibu: ubottu is a bot.
[18:30] <jim_p> dmi3on, give me some time ok? is the vista pc the one that connects TO the other one?
[18:31] <|911> anyone belkin wireless g fd7050 install?? need the help, thx
[18:31] <Jeruvy> malibu: then you can 'manually' download it or wait until the maintainer releases an update.  btw ubottu is a bot.
[18:31] <jim_p> janelle, sure
[18:31] <chai> do i have to enable additional repositories (other than defaults) to get enlightenment desktop manager?
[18:31] <spydon> how can I convert .raw movie file to for example .ogg?
[18:31] <ahox> Hi, does anyone here have the LaCie Network space NAS drive running?
[18:31] <malibu> Pici: Yeah I don't get the whole bot thing
[18:31] <ahox> I want to know if it works with linux
[18:31] <jim_p> spydon, ffmpeg
[18:31] <Pici> malibu: it responds to triggers.
[18:31] <Pici> !hi | malibu
[18:31] <wassy121> Hello, I can't seem to get gconftool-2 to work properly.  It gives the error: $ gconftool-2 -t string -s /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/smb/command "nautilus \"%s\""
[18:31] <wassy121> Error setting value: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://www.gnome.org/projects/gconf/ for information. (Details -  1: Failed to get connection to session: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-yLG9aBSYAD: Connection refused)
[18:31] <malibu> ah
[18:31] <FloodBot1> wassy121: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:31] <Pici> malibu: 8.10 was released in October, if python 2.6 was also released then, then there is very little chance of it being included in the release.
[18:31] <wassy121> Any ideas?
[18:31] <dmi3on> jim_p, i have no idea how to do it :( what i want is to control vista using ubuntu take your time when you have a chance just PM me
[18:31] <dmi3on> thanks
[18:32] <spydon> jim_p, yeah, but with which parameters?
[18:32] <jim_p> spydon, install a gui then like avidemux
[18:32] <ASULutzy> Pici: Marginally off-topic, but what's ubottu written in? Perl? Python?
[18:32] <wassy121> Bah, it was only like 3 lines, I didn't mean to flood ;-)
[18:32] <janelle> jim_p, here you go http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m11b48949
[18:32] <malibu> pici: Oh is that how it works.
[18:32] <Pici> ASULutzy: Python. /msg ubottu info supybot and /msg ubottu botclone  for more info
[18:33] <Pici> malibu: Yes, we are not a rolling release like debian is.
[18:33] <ASULutzy> dmi3on: You'll need to enable remote desktop on the vista machine, then you can just use either remote desktop viewer or terminal server client in Ubuntu to connect to it. The vista machine, if behind a router, will need to have port forwarding setup properly. If this is not possible, there are solutions that work through port 80 that lots of companies use
[18:33] <hexilum> Is an anti-virus suite required in ubuntu 8.10?
[18:33] <spydon> jim_p, thx
[18:33] <malibu> Pici: well I guess i shouldn't develop for Python 2.6 then...
[18:33] <Pici> hexilum: No. Unless you are planning on serving files to windows users and want to add extra protection for them.
[18:33] <Jerrr> ASULutzy : RDC works on ubuntu?
[18:33] <jim_p> spydon, line 444 and below is full of errors
[18:34] <ASULutzy> hexilum: Not unless you are running say a mailserver that could pass stuff on to Windows
[18:34] <jim_p> damn
[18:34] <ASULutzy> Jerrr: Yes
[18:34] <hexilum> well what about if I'm running window applications with wine?
[18:34] <jim_p> janelle, line 444 and below is full of errors
[18:34] <Katangawise> jim_p, if i  remove the nm, i'll lost my connection.. Thats meen that i wouldn't install something else..Am i wrong?
[18:34] <dmi3on> ASULutzy, thx i am new to this stuff can you give me some links how to do or if you have time help me to set it up
[18:34] <ThatGuy_>  /server irc.dslextreme.com
[18:34] <jim_p> Katangawise, install it first and remove it afterwords
[18:34] <Jerrr> ASULutzy : Is that standard? Or do I have to install extra's?
[18:35] <Katangawise> jim_p, ok :))
[18:35] <wassy121> hexilum: wine applications don't have enough access to break things normally.
[18:35] <simsss> does anyone have a clue why web browsing in firefox and opera is so extremely slow in ubuntu 8.10
[18:35] <chai> hm... says enlightenment is in universe repositories... i have them enabled and updated, but get the "referred by another package" message. what am i missing?
[18:35] <wassy121> Jerrr: It is normally standard in the "internet" section.  If not, just search for "remote desktop" in add/remove progs.
[18:35] <hexilum> so the ClamAV  virus scanner is pointless?
[18:35] <roger_> hexilum, there is only around 1% of the world that uses linux, 99.9% of viruses targets windows operating systems
[18:36] <ASULutzy> dmi3on: On vista enabling remote desktop, I'm not too sure... Just google it, then connecting to the machine from ubuntu, just click applications ->accessories -> terminal server client (or remote desktop viewer) I'm not sure if terminal server client is installed by default, I think it'd be sudo apt-get install tsclient
[18:36] <hexilum> k
[18:36] <etb> how can i extend my ext3 partition
[18:36] <dmi3on> ASULutzy, OK
[18:36] <Jerrr> wassy121 : Sweet Thanks, I am going to try this tonight. I would love to be able t owork on my Ubuntu machine from home.  You good with drivers? My video card driver only gives my monitor max resolution of 1024x768 yet its native resolution is 1440x900
[18:36] <ASULutzy> hexilum: wine will only have normal user permission, not root permission, unless you are silly and run it with sudo
[18:36] <axisys> how do I read non english font? this page is in bengali http://www.ittefaq.com
[18:37] <hexilum> k gotchya :)
[18:37] <hexilum> thanks
[18:37] <ASULutzy> dmi3on: I'm sorry that file path wasn't right. It's applications -> internet -> terminal server client
[18:37] <Jerrr> Is it like VNC? Where I would run a server on my ubuntu machine and dial in from windows?
[18:37] <wassy121> axisys: the webpage is broken, not the browser.  They have some custom "IE-only" i18n hax in place.
[18:38] <ASULutzy> Jerrr: Er, he's doing it the other way. Connecting to a Windows machine from an Ubuntu machine. If you wanted to connect to an Ubuntu machine from a windows machine and do it graphically, I don't know what you'd have to do, setup a VNC server I'm guessing
[18:38] <wassy121> Jerrr: The app in ubuntu is for connecting to Windows machines via RDP.  If you want to connect from Windows -> ubuntu, you need to set up the VNC server.
[18:39] <ASULutzy> Jerrr: Although to be honest, if you are connecting to an Ubuntu or any other Linux machine, you can really do anything you need to do from the terminal, so I never bother with VNC, ssh is plenty :)
[18:39] <Jerrr> wassy121 : have you fooled around with FreeNX yet?
[18:39] <Jerrr> Yea, Im rather new still so GUI's are my friend :)
[18:39] <wassy121> axisys: for proper i18n handling: http://www.aljazeera.net/portal
[18:40] <wassy121> Jerrr: First I have heard of it.
[18:40] <axisys> wassy121: is there any workaround ?
[18:40] <axisys> i am using FF
[18:41] <Jerrr> Another question; my machine reconizes my sound card; when I type aplay -l its there, and lspci, its there. Yet I have no sound. When the machine starts up I hear something kick in yet there is no sound
[18:41] <wassy121> axisys: yes, contact the website author and tell them to learn how to program.
[18:41] <Jerrr> My onboard audio is not supported by alsa, is there a work around to get sound?
[18:41] <axisys> wassy121: lol
[18:41] <dimitars> i used router 1 week ago, but then i went straight to modem(i use adsl internet). Now i need to use the router aggain but i don't have internet when connect throught it
[18:41] <ASULutzy> Jerrr: Hearing something "kick in" is probably your BIOS POST'ing, that's from a little speaker on the motherboard, not from your regular speakers, if that's what you're talking about
[18:42] <Jerrr> ASULutzy it wasnt post, I know what post is :), it was like a vibration inside my headset, then a low low low humming noise, when I turn my machine off it goes away
[18:43] <etb> how can i extend my ext3 partition?
[18:43] <roger_> do you know what your onboard sound is
[18:43] <Jerrr> uhm, yea gimme a second
[18:43] <roger_> maybe ac97 drivers might get it to work
[18:43] <eseven73> !who | roger_
[18:43] <wassy121> etb: read manuals on resize2fs , it is dangerous, so be careful.
[18:43] <etb> wassy121: safe way?
[18:43] <ASULutzy> Jerrr: I'm not sure what you're going to do if onboard doesn't support alsa, I would say buy a pci sound card, heck a soundblaster live or something can't cost more than 20 bucks if that at a computer store. You could always try oss, but I doubt that has any better support, but maybe?
[18:44] <wassy121> etb: modifying the filesystem underneath existing data is always dangerous.
[18:44] <Jerrr> roger_ : ALC889A Audio
[18:46] <roger_> Jerrr, i believe that's same onboard i have and alsa uses ac97 drivers flawlessly
[18:46] <Jerrr> Really?!?
[18:46] <Jerrr> So your giving me hope!
[18:46] <Jerrr> Sahfuckingsweet.
[18:46] <roger_> Jerrr, i'm gonna double check
[18:46] <FloodBot1> Jerrr: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[18:46] <wassy121> Jerrr: yeah, the onboard sound from most big vendors are pretty well supported.
[18:46] <ASULutzy> !language | Jerrr
[18:46] <Jerrr> roger_ : Im going to go check on something in the warehouse, please PM me with your findings, thanks!
[18:46] <Adam_> !danger
[18:47] <wassy121> Can anyone else run 'gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename' as non-root user?  I get an error, wondering if it is just me.
[18:47] <ASULutzy> What was the danger trigger for Adam_?
[18:47] <wassy121> !danger
[18:47] <Adam_> was an accident, was scrolling through some old text, the mousepad on my laptop clicked off my palm

[18:47] <dimitars> i used router 1 week ago, but then i went straight to modem(i use adsl internet). Now i need to use the router aggain but i don't have internet when connect throught it
[18:48] <wassy121> dimitars: not enough information.  Try using the network applet in your system tray to reconfigure your network.
[18:48] <wassy121> Can anyone else run 'gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename' as non-root user?  I get an error, wondering if it is just me.
[18:49] <ASULutzy> wassy121: /desktop?
[18:49] <Pici> wassy121: works for me.
[18:49] <dimitars> wassy121 how can i reconfigure my network througth that aplet. It's empty.
[18:49] <wassy121> pici: thanks, it must be due to the Hardy-Ibex upgrade or something.  Will investigate.
[18:50] <neosuki> how to check whether a package has already been installed or not in ubuntu using apt-get?
[18:50] <ASULutzy> wassy121: Yea works for me too, I guess I didn't get how the --get dealie worked ;)
[18:50] <wassy121> dimitars: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkManager
[18:51] <ASULutzy> neosuki: You can use apt-cache policy packageName
[18:52] <dorgan> if i use iptables to set a rule how do i get it to save that rule when it reboots
[18:52] <earthmeLon> :D
[18:52] <dayo_> SingAlong: how did the LAMP install go?
[18:53] <|911> anyone belkin wireless g fd7050 install?? need the help, thx
[18:54] <Pici> !anyone
[18:55] <wassy121> dorgan: looks like ubuntu uses ufw.  Try 'man ufw' for more info (I don't know/use it).
[18:55] <predaeus> Hello, I have an application source here that I want to compile but pkg-config tells me on configure that a required library version is too old. Now I have compiled the latest svn version of the respective library, but I don't know how to point configure/pkg-config to the location of the (not-installed) new library version. Can anybody help me out please?
[18:55] <dorgan> ii put the rule in using iptables
[18:55] <dorgan> its ubuntu server BTW
[18:55] <earthmeLon> I don't think that was necessary for that situation, Pici
[18:55] <ubuntu> join ubuntu-fr
[18:55] <|911> lol @ anyone cmd
[18:56] <neosuki> how can i use vpn client?
[18:56] <wassy121> predaeus: you normally can't do it that way.  You have to install the updated library in most cases due to shared library linking.
[18:56] <ASULutzy> |911: Explain the problem you are having, what you have tried, etc. Simply saying need help with xyz isn't useful.
[18:57] <|911> just wondering if someone knows about wireless usb installations
[18:57] <wassy121> neosuki: sudo apt-get install vpnc , then read the manual about it.  I think network manager even has support for some VPNC stuff (not sure/don't use).
[18:57] <ASULutzy> neosuki: Network manager makes it pretty pain free, you have to apt-get install a certain package depending on what kind of VPN it is, but after that simple
[18:57] <|911> no internet on pc currently
[18:57] <SingAlong> I have some lib packages in .tar.gz format. How can I 'build' these stuff? How do I 'build'? Any tutorials?
[18:57] <|911> and tried ndis_wrapper
[18:57] <neosuki> ASULutzy: wassy121 I've installed tightvnc client
[18:58] <ASULutzy> |911: Did you even read the trigger?
[18:58] <predaeus> wassy121, ok thanks, I thought this could be the case. Thanks. Will try to install it without overwriting any older versions.
[18:58] <neosuki> the other end has installed vnc server
[18:58] <unop> !build
[18:58] <unop> SingAlong, ^^
[18:58] <|911> nope
[18:58] <ASULutzy> neosuki: vnc and vpn are different?
[18:58] <SingAlong> unop: Thank you.
[18:58] <dayo_> SingAlong no ubuntu packages for it?
[18:58] <VectorM> lo all
[18:58] <SingAlong> dayo_: nope!
[18:58] <VectorM> still nothing on my screen.
[18:58] <SingAlong> dayo_: its libfbml.tar.gz
[18:58] <dorgan> ahh iptables-save
[18:58] <dorgan> :)
[18:59] <neosuki> ASULutzy: I need to work with vnc only
[18:59] <VectorM> ctrl-alt-f1 still causes my screen to turn off and say res not supported
[18:59] <dayo_> SingAlong: ok. untar the file and look for a file called configure
[18:59] <ASULutzy> neosuki: Then why did you ask about vpn's? I'm confused :)
[18:59] <a1len> Can someone help me with a lamp on 8.10 desktop? Networking is confusing me a little.
[18:59] <neosuki> ASULutzy: Sorry for the confusion...
[18:59] <VectorM> i rebooted into recovery.  did xfix.  nothing.  rebooting into recovery, did root mode, configured new xorg.conf, nada.  nothing
[18:59] <wassy121> dorgan: Yeah, but iptables-save just gives it to stdio, and you have to set up your own boot-time init script or whatever to read it back in (iptables-restore).  ufw is similar in 'saving' the rules in /etc/ufw I think.
[19:00] <SingAlong> dayo_: it doesnt have such a file. it has files like build-all.py, Makefile etc
[19:00] <wassy121> VectorM: it may be a problem with your framebuffer (has nothing to do with X).
[19:00] <SingAlong> dayo_: Any idea how I can do this?
[19:00] <neosuki> ASULutzy: i've vnc client running whereas vnc server is running at the other end. I know the server's ip address
[19:00] <ASULutzy> SingAlong: cd into the directory and type make
[19:00] <dayo_> SingAlong: try perl Makefile.pl
[19:01] <neosuki> how can i connect to the vnc viewer, so tht i can see his desktop
[19:01] <ASULutzy> dayo_, SingAlong: .py is python, not perl.
[19:01] <Pici> SingAlong: The sofware should come with a README or INSTALL file, please look into that to see how to build it.
[19:01] <dayo_> ASULutzy: sorry, missed that it was a .py file
[19:01] <wassy121> VectorM: if you have bios settings regarding the display, you may want to fiddle with them a bit (especially if this is a laptop, which sometimes has framebuffer issues).
[19:02] <dayo_> SingAlong: yes, Pici is right. check the README and/or INSTALL for any possible prerequisites
[19:02] <wassy121> neosuki: vncviewer is the command-line program, I am not sure if there is a gui-based vnc client program shipped with ubuntu.
[19:03] <ASULutzy> wassy121, neosuki: tsclient can do it, (not sure if it's included in ubuntu by default)
[19:03] <wassy121> neosuki: yes, tsclient is what I was searching for.  add/remove programs, should be in universe repo.
[19:03] <raff> intel wi-fi drivers works fine on intrepid?
[19:03] <ASULutzy> neosuki: try sudo apt-get install tsclient, then go to applications -> internet -> terminal server client, and configuring it from there
[19:04] <neosuki> wassy121: though my confusion is, in the first place will the vnc work in ordinary internet connection, with an assumption having dhcp in mind
[19:04] <wassy121> neosuki: yes, vnc works over normal internet.
[19:04] <ASULutzy> neosuki: All VNC does is forward the display from one machine to another
[19:04] <neosuki> ASULutzy: wassy121 tsclient work with vncserver also?
[19:05] <ASULutzy> neosuki: Yes
[19:05] <legate> I I have a problem with ALSA. For some reason it does not work. I already restarted and it did not help. Any hints?
[19:05] <wassy121> neosuki: tsclient is a front-end for vncclient.
[19:05] <computer13137> Hello
[19:05] <ASULutzy> Sometimes I wish vnc would just go away, ssh is still and always will be, where it's at ;)
[19:05] <neosuki> ASULutzy: thanks dude!
[19:05] <oCean_> ASULutzy: neosuki, in Applications > Internet, there is also "remote desktop viewer", which is actually Vinagre, the vnc client for gnome
[19:05] <dayo_> hi
[19:05] <neosuki> wassy121: thanks dude!
[19:05] <computer13137> I have the EXPI9301CTBLK Intel network card (PCI Express x1) and Ubuntu does not recognize the card.  What can I do to install this card?
[19:05] <syva> hey there guys
[19:05] <ASULutzy> neosuki, oCean_: Yes, this too, I just have some weird bias for tsclient, don't really know why :)
[19:06] <ASULutzy> neosuki: I would also try what oCean_ recommended
[19:06] <syva> can i make it so that shift+spacebar or caps key on + spacebar gives me an underscore
[19:06] <PeteM> Hi, ubuntu quite often freezes up the windows when I have many programs running, they get greyed out for 5-20 seconds, is it lack of RAM or the CPU that is overloaded?
[19:06] <SingAlong> dayo_: thank you!
[19:06] <mama58> ciao a tutti
[19:07] <mama58> !list
[19:07] <dayo_> SingAlong: u're welcome :-)
[19:07] <neosuki> ASULutzy: wht kind of server does the other end should run for me to see the desktop?
[19:07] <yellabs> hello there
[19:07] <syva> anyone
[19:07] <yellabs> how many ram can an 32 bit ubuntu adress? 4gb + ?
[19:07] <syva> ?
[19:08] <ASULutzy> neosuki: Well, a VNC server. Alternatively, if they're running Windows, they can run remote desktop, and tsclient can be used to connect to that using RDP
[19:08] <SuSEno> i run it just 256MB
[19:08] <yellabs> heh
[19:08] <VectorM> wassy121: you say it maybe my framebuffer.  i am able to see the boot text and stuff
[19:08] <wassy121> syva: yes, but it is pretty complicated.  You have to work with xmodmap and xev and whatnot.
[19:08] <computer13137> Anyone?
[19:08] <VectorM> would that matter
[19:08] <neosuki> ASULutzy: thanks! but will port# matters?
[19:08] <wassy121> VectorM: right, but once it loads the framebuffer and gives the boot splash (if you have it set up), then it blacks out, right?
[19:08] <VectorM> yes
[19:08] <syva> wassy121: hmm okay, i;m suprised its not easier, seems like a pretty useful mapping
[19:09] <VectorM> wassy121: yes.
[19:09] <ASULutzy> yellabs: It's a bit tricky, but as a rule, if you're going to use more than 3 GB, I'd use 64, 32 can handle more with pae, but there's no real reason not to use 64, flash can be tricky, but is manageable
[19:09] <wassy121> syva: it is a custom mapping, thus you have to write your own mapping file, and get that loaded properly.  I haven't done it in years.
[19:09] <yellabs> ASULutzy , thanks, very helpfull..
[19:10] <wassy121> VectorM: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrameBuffer - boot option "vga=normal" may solve it.
[19:10] <ASULutzy> yellabs: for more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension
[19:10] <erUSUL> yellabs: 4GB minus some ram depending on pci devices and bios configuration
[19:10] <wassy121> VectorM: or maybe 'nofb'.
[19:11] <Pici> !nickspam > `Jimmy
[19:12] <neosuki> wassy121: ASULutzy: what should be the port# in case of vnc server is running at the other end, port# in case of rdp?
[19:12] <VectorM> wassy121: rying that now
[19:12] <yellabs> ok , i see
[19:14] <MrWindex> hi
[19:14] <MrWindex> all
[19:14] <daredevilthere> Does anyone knw how can i beautify my tty console just as it is done it backtrack?
[19:14] <Bodsda> what is the name of intrepids default theme?
[19:14] <oCean_> neosuki: when starting the vncserver "at the other and" you'll have to specify a display number
[19:15] <oCean_> neosuki: this can be 1,2,3 ... and so on
[19:15] <neosuki> oCean_: fine. but port# doesn't matter?
[19:15] <oCean_> neosuki: well no. But the difference is that you (as user1) can connect to display 1, while user2 can connect to display 2, each using your own desktop
[19:16] <oCean_> neosuki: rdp, is default port 3389 i think
[19:16] <neosuki> oCean_: thanks for clarifying!
[19:17] <neosuki> well i'm having one another prob in ubuntu regarding sound
