[05:39] <shroomsky> thanks for the help
[05:39] <dyrne> tree: id try a diff version of firefox or maybe just rm -fr ~/.mozilla
[05:39] <rausb0> orbisvicis: maybe it was a outgoing connection try. which network services do you run?
[05:39] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, did you mange to make linux use more than 2GB of RAM?
[05:39] <Pelo> tree, I'v had ff freeze on a fiash when I interupted the stream ( either I wanted to stop it for just plain close the ff windows with a running fiash it it, ) i never had to reboot because of it ,
[05:40] <tree> dyrne what does the -f command do?
[05:40] <rausb0> orbisvicis: and which clients that can possbily try to connect to something on the net?
[05:40] <chil1> Tree, I'd advise a fresh install, I had that problem then I reinstalled and it works smooth.
[05:40] <Pelo> !flash | tree  try reisntalling following the instructinos
[05:40] <ubotu> tree  try reisntalling following the instructinos: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[05:40] <orbisvicis> lol, 80 instances of openoffice @ZeroA4
[05:40] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, :)
[05:40] <dr_willis> make linux use more then 2 gb ram.. hmm.. could do a 'vi /proc/kcore' :)
[05:40] <chil1> Hmm, none of my installed themes are showing up in my themes list, any help?
[05:40] <dyrne> tree: it doesnt prompt for y/n it means force
[05:40] <nato70> hi there ! someone knows, if there is any solution for the microphone issue in ubuntu 7.04?
[05:41] <tree> whats the best way to install firefox?
[05:41] <rausb0> orbisvicis: i just checked, <IP_ADDRESS> is calvino.freenode.net, so maybe your irc client tried to connect to that port
[05:41] <Pelo> chil1, open the theme manager and drop the tar.gz file in the list
[05:41] <tree> er sorry i meant uninstall
[05:41] <orbisvicis> rausb0: ftp, tor, samba (netbios etc) and ldap
[05:41] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, so linux did starting using the swap ?
[05:41] <orbisvicis> yeah about 560 kb
[05:41] <chil1> Pelo: it says it installs, but it never shows up.
[05:41] <tree> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash is how i installed the flash in the first place
[05:41] <dyrne> tree: well i often just download the tar.gz from firefox website and run that just point the world icon in gnome panel to /home/$USER/firefox/firefox  or wherever you unpack it
[05:42] <deeeep> Hello! anyone know anything about installing Nvidia graph drivers ?
[05:42] <ethereality> is it possible to alt+#### to type characters from the character map?
[05:42] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, what do you think now of linux use of swap ? :)
[05:42] <Pelo> chil1,  it might be the same as one already there or it might just be a theme portions check it the personnalise section
[05:42] <erUSUL> !nvidia > deeeep
[05:42] <nato70> deeeep, did you try envy?
[05:42] <chil1> deeeep: you should be able to just grab the restricted extras shouldn't you?
[05:42] <ethereality> any other way than the slow copy-paste method?
[05:42] <rausb0> orbisvicis: maybe it is this ugly avahi daemon (UPnP/zeroconf) thing, automatically opening forwarded ports on the router.
[05:42] <Pelo> later folks
[05:42] <orbisvicis> much better than windows ... ; ) .... though beryl started lagging ... and cpu was low ... dont know why ?
[05:43] <orbisvicis> rausb0: I disabled upnp on the router ... um how do i find out if avahi is running, portwise that is ?
[05:43] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, beryl depends more of video card than cpu
[05:44] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, what is your video card?
[05:44] <rausb0> orbisvicis: look for a process named avahi-daemon or something
[05:44] <orbisvicis> nvidia 6600
[05:44] <dedi> ZeroA4: wb :) hit me, and i dont earn any help anymore :)
[05:44] <dhgwill> s?
[05:45] <orbisvicis> yeah, it is running
[05:45] <rausb0> orbisvicis: but maybe it is a outgoing connection firestarter reports, not a incoming. i don't use firestarter so i can't help you with that.
[05:45] <ZeroA4> dedi, you made it?
[05:45] <orbisvicis> or right ... yes it is only outgoing connections
[05:46] <dedi> ZeroA4: i added the single command to my grub, because without i cant start X (black screen, pc lock completly). i think this is the reason why it always loads vesa
[05:46] <orbisvicis> oops
[05:46] <linuxor_> Hi, is it possible to use Biulder C++ on ubuntu ?? Thx >
[05:46] <orbisvicis> i mean incoming
[05:46] <tree> sorry to bug but would you unistall firefox or flash if you were getti9ng freezaing..and if you uninstall flash whats the best way to do it?
[05:47] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, should be good. may be you need to change to XGL or config delays in beryl manager
[05:47] <Lectus> hello
[05:47] <dyrne> Lectus: hey
[05:47] <nato70> someone knows how to fix the microphone issue in ubuntu 7.04?
[05:48] <ZeroA4> dedi, i am now at my notebook that has the X700 with fglrx, i was thinking of sending you a pastof my xorg.conf...
[05:48] <orbisvicis> rausb0: no idea myself, but its not that important
[05:48] <orbisvicis> ZeroA4: delay ?
[05:48] <dyrne> nato70: what is the issue?
[05:48] <dyrne> nato70: sound coming out of speakers?
[05:48] <ZeroA4> orbisvicis, yeah... beryl has delays so you can see the efectas
[05:48] <dawn_chorus> good morning Feisty fans.
[05:48] <orbisvicis> oh ok
[05:48] <nato70> dyrne, yes... but my skype just doenst work
[05:49] <ZeroA4> linuxor_, may be emuled by wine
[05:49] <orbisvicis> i actually should be running in sli ... but I dont think its working right now ... does xorg.conf control sli ?
[05:49] <linuxor_> ZeroA4, I'll try, thx
[05:49] <rausb0> orbisvicis: did you get another message from firestarter now?
[05:49] <dedi> ZeroA4: the single command affects something with starting X? do you know what? (a fresh installation already hang when starting X without booting with single)
[05:49] <ZeroA4> linuxor_, but linux has free C++ an IDEs
[05:49] <Gat0rvean> Is it safe to turn off all the evolution startup processes? I don't use any of them (I don't think I do)
[05:50] <orbisvicis> rausb0: no, i did not
[05:50] <linuxor_> ZeroA4, u mean Qt ??
[05:50] <dawn_chorus> Gat0rvean, I've turned all mine off.  Everything seems cool.
[05:50] <ZeroA4> dedi, dont know
[05:50] <rausb0> obsethryl: okay. i just tried to connect to port 47221 of your router.
[05:50] <numan> how to edit grub boot loader?
[05:50] <dr_willis> !grub
[05:50] <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
[05:50] <dedi> ZeroA4: so you had no problems with default installation and normal booting?
[05:50] <dawn_chorus> numan, what are you trying to do, specifically?
[05:51] <ZeroA4> dedi, not on 7.04
[05:51] <smacky_> anyone know of a program that is fast that convert movie's
[05:51] <dr_willis> numan,   the /boot/grub/menu.lst file controlss it. Then theres commands that help ya do things
[05:51] <ZeroA4> dedi, but i had with 6.10
[05:51] <dr_willis> smacky_,  acidemux is what i ude
[05:51] <dr_willis> smacky_,  aVidemux is what i ude
[05:51] <orbisvicis> rausb0 : i suppose that means its only outgoing
[05:51] <dr_willis> use even.. heh heh.
[05:51] <numan> !i want to remove old version of kernels from the list bcoz there are many around 12
[05:51] <dedi> ZeroA4: what did you to fix it with 6.10?
[05:51] <mohkohn> Is there anybody else using an intel imac here?
[05:52] <orbisvicis> btw, which repo has opera ?
[05:52] <ZeroA4> dedi, it was some kernel option at boot... but i dont remember
[05:52] <dr_willis> numan,  you can set it to just show a few easially enough. edit that file (backup your original)
[05:52] <obsethryl> ZeroA4: is that you mentioning my name all the time?
[05:52] <dr_willis> numan,  and read it - and its comments.
[05:52] <smacky_> dr is that user friendly
[05:52] <pbenites> who know evms-ha?
[05:53] <numan> should i use nano to edit the file?
[05:53] <obsethryl> rausb0: you did what?
[05:53] <dr_willis> smacky_,  the phrase userfrioendly means very littel to me. :)
[05:53] <ZeroA4> obsethryl, sorry i should the meanig to say orbisvicis
[05:53] <obsethryl> np
[05:53] <smacky_> ok sry
[05:53] <obsethryl> rausb0: you did what?
[05:53] <dr_willis> smacky_,  thats gotten to be a rather meaningless term in so many ways its scary.
[05:53] <Gat0rvean> Can anyone tell me what "evolution-data-server-1.10" and "evolution-exchange-storage" are?
[05:53] <pbenites> anyone know evms-ha?
[05:53] <h3h_timo> hey all, im trying to create a basic account setup using /etc/skel/ but im having troubles getting the default icons on the panel and in the applications menu can anyone help??
[05:53] <rausb0> obsethryl: nc your_routers_ip_address 47221
[05:53] <smacky_> i'm tryin to convert movies that gives out no lag
[05:54] <pbenites> hi, anyone know evms-ha?
[05:54] <nato70> microphone in ubuntu 7.04... does someone has any clue about how to solve this issue?
[05:54] <tashe> does anyone know how can i connect to multiple servers on XChat?
[05:54] <tree> its weird sometimes firefox with flash 9 will cause freezes and sometimes the same page wont
[05:54] <joejoe> dbo, might be my problem from the timidity ?
[05:54] <dr_willis> smacky_,  ive been using Avidemux to convert stuff to play on my portable player for the last 3 days :) its doing a good job for me.
[05:54] <kunwon1> tashe, ask in #xchat
[05:54] <tashe> ok, thanks
[05:54] <LMJ> Helloo
[05:55] <gordonjcp> nato70: "microphone issue in 7.04"?
[05:55] <pbenites> does anyone know how can i install evms-ha and heartbeat-2?
[05:55] <gordonjcp> nato70: care to be a little more specific?
[05:55] <smacky_> ok thanks I'll go try that one
[05:55] <dyrne> smacky_: well i think you can use vlc. it might be easier than the other options
[05:55] <nato70> gordonjcp: sorry... I mean... the microphone just doens't work... I can't use skype for example...
[05:55] <gordonjcp> nato70: is it selected for recording?
[05:56] <pbenites> does anyone know how can i install evms-ha and heartbeat-2?
[05:56] <orbisvicis> rausb0 : orbisvicis : & what happened ... firestarter did not report it ... i suppose i did not go through b/c of nat
[05:56] <tree> it seems that konqueror is not freezing on the same pages that firefox is
[05:56] <smacky_> I was using tovid but they said that it dont convert to iso's no more
[05:56] <nato70> gordonjcp: yes.... I already search the ubuntu forum to see if I could find some solution, but there are a lot of people having the same issue as well
[05:56] <obsethryl> rausb0: sorry but what you are connecting to, has nothing to do with me :)
[05:56] <dr_willis> smacky_,  no idea.id never want to convert to '.iso' anyway
[05:56] <LMJ> Samba 3.0.24 (smbd exactly) segfault/code dump/crash when i launch it ? Got a fresh Feisty x86_64 install. This bug has been reported in the Ubuntu bugzilla website is there a solution/fix around ?
[05:57] <orbisvicis> srry obsethryl that was meant for me
[05:57] <obsethryl> orbisvicis: ah ok
[05:57] <rausb0> obsethryl: so pool-70-21-196-147.nwrk.east.verizon.net is not your router's public address?
[05:57] <obsethryl> for a sec you guys made me go looking my logs :P
[05:57] <dyrne> smacky_: wait. couldnt you just mkisofs then?
[05:57] <obsethryl> rausb0: nope
[05:57] <gordonjcp> nato70: hm
[05:57] <rausb0> obsethryl: okay
[05:57] <Gat0rvean> does "apt-get upgrade" upgrade the distro as well as the packages, or just the packages?
[05:57] <gordonjcp> nato70: do you know the microphone works?
[05:57] <orbisvicis> hey!
[05:57] <smacky_> not no more
[05:57] <obsethryl> rausb0: but how have you concluded that it might be me?
[05:57] <dedi> can anyone tell me for what the *single* (recovery mode) kernel command actuely does? (X only runs with single option)
[05:58] <smacky_> they upgraded it
[05:58] <obsethryl> not to say that i have nothing to do with verizon btw
[05:58] <debonzi> hi there... does anyone here works with cenon.app?
[05:58] <dyrne> Gat0rvean: apt-get dist-upgrade does that
[05:58] <orbisvicis> rausb0 : obsethryl =! to orbisvicis
[05:58] <dr_willis> smacky_,  im not even sure what 'converting a video to .iso' really means in this case. :) i got a dvd player that can play .avi files  heh.
[05:58] <Gat0rvean> dyrne, thanks
[05:58] <rausb0> orbisvicis: oh, my fault :)
[05:58] <obsethryl> rausb0: ;)
[05:58] <nato70> gordonjcp: yes... if i set the speaker on in the microphone bar, I can hear myself
[05:58] <dyrne> Gat0rvean: of course it needs the sources.list to be for the new version. /msg ubotu upgrade for more info
[05:58] <gordonjcp> nato70: ok
[05:58] <gordonjcp> nato70: so you need to select it for recording then
[05:59] <numan> dr_willis: should i use nano to edit the file?
[05:59] <smacky_> avi to mpeg to iso hehe lots of trouble but it is worth it in the end
[05:59] <dr_willis> numan,  use whatever text editor you like.
[05:59] <gordonjcp> nato70: have a look in the preferences, and turn on "Microphone Capture"
[05:59] <obsethryl> orbisvicis: just out of curiosity what is the problem?
[05:59] <nato70> gordonjcp: :)
[05:59] <dr_willis> numan,  if you dont know how to use a text editor to edit a file with root access.. id advice just leaving the thing alone untill you learn some more linux fundamentals.
[05:59] <numan> dr_willis: and also what is the command option for backing up the edited file?
[05:59] <nato70> gordonjcp: anyway, thank you for your help!
[06:00] <dr_willis> numan,  cp whatever whever
[06:00] <graabein> i have closed nvidia drivers installed. what happens if i upgrade to feisty through upgrade-manager?
[06:00] <dr_willis> !shell
[06:00] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[06:00] <orbisvicis> obsethryl, having no nat'd port in the 40,000's, I was surprised that firestarter reported incoming connection on that port
[06:00] <braniff> now that i use linux, does that make me a nerd?
[06:00] <bean-oh> anyone had and luck or know a good doc for Laptop docking? trying to get the external monitor its own proper config
[06:00] <Stormx2> braniff: Joooooinnn usssss!
[06:00] <SlimeyPete> braniff: a geek, perhaps.
[06:00] <dyrne> graabein: if you installed em via the package manager its fine. if you ran nvidia installer youll need to rerun
[06:00] <CarinArr> !nvidia
[06:00] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:00] <braniff> heh
[06:00] <obsethryl> orbisvicis: dont use firestarter if you want full  control, try studying how iptables works on your own
[06:01] <graabein> CarinArr, i used the envy script. dyrne, okay that seems fair
[06:01] <orbisvicis> turns out its from irc, thanks rausb0 (btw how do i fin my routers public address ? ) and b/c it ws already initiated the router let it in but firestarter blocked it, or logged it anyway
[06:01] <UberPsyX> hi, whats the terminal command for installing programs from .zip archives?
[06:01] <rausb0> orbisvicis: as obsethryl said, GUIs always take control away from you
[06:01] <obsethryl> rausb0: or to be honest, make decisions for you
[06:01] <dyrne> UberPsyX: youll need to unzip file.zip and see what yah got to work with
[06:02] <rausb0> obsethryl: yes
[06:02] <pbenites> anyone know evms-ha?
[06:02] <obsethryl> rausb0: perhaps he could have better luck with something like guarddog though, if he wants gui interfaces
[06:02] <obsethryl> that by default blocks everything and many people find it very useful
[06:02] <rausb0> obsethryl: i don't know either. i use my own iptables rule set.
[06:02] <UberPsyX> dyrne, ok thanks
[06:02] <obsethryl> rausb0: yah same here
[06:03] <orbisvicis> obsethryl, rausb0 : i suppose ill try iptables ... but not sure I think this issue is resolved
[06:04] <christoph__> bye
[06:04] <orbisvicis> but anyway rausb0 , is the only way to fin my routers ip lookit up from the outside then do lookup to find the name as you did pool-70-21-196-147.nwrk.east.verizon.net
[06:05] <obsethryl> orbisvicis: until you get a grasp of iptables, try guarddog and tell us what you think; guarddog by default will block all your ports unless you "click" the ones you want on; at least that is what i remember of it. It is a GUI tool for setting rules, far mor powerful than the firestarter you use. With time, though, switch to manual iptables rules, it WILL DEFINITELY save you a lot of time in highly idiosyncratic settings for your system
[06:06] <rausb0> orbisvicis: a generic way to know your public ip address is visiting www.whatismyip.com
[06:06] <orbisvicis> hey whatismyipaddress.com even has a map now
[06:06] <obsethryl> unless you are connecting using tor or i2p these will work :P
[06:06] <orbisvicis> for moment no tor ; )
[06:06] <nisulid> calem-se
[06:06] <nisulid> bando de fdp
[06:07] <dr_willis> orbisvicis,  egads! the feds are on to me!
[06:07] <dr_willis> :)
[06:07] <obsethryl> ha ha ah
[06:07] <mattwalston> Anyone know how to get Sound Juicer to select the MP3 Profile?  It exists and is enabled but does not appear in the Pref drop down.  Also if I edit the MP3 program app becomes unresponsive.
[06:07] <Cato9021> Could anyone help me with screen resolution. I have tried change xorg.conf and got a friend to change driver via ssh. And still the resolution wont change from 800x600. I had 1024x768 on win, so it shouldn't be a problem in linux?
[06:08] <orbisvicis> dr_willis, lol
[06:08] <obsethryl> anyway, this channel is fun, from what i see in the logs people tend to be nice to each other and not debianize the conversation. Kudos to #ubuntu IRC channel
[06:09] <eifzon> Can anyone here help me to open a .mdf file?
[06:09] <rausb0> obsethryl: people are just a bit more patient here :)
[06:09] <obsethryl> rausb0: hmm well, i would not say patient, i would say polite
[06:09] <orbisvicis> has anyone noticed that if you click the tray icons (top bar, just to the right of system), you get an ugly transparent enlarging-square effect just before the program opens ?
[06:10] <AL37> I think that's deliberate <.<
[06:10] <orbisvicis> obsethryl, I think patient might not be in the patient's best interest !
[06:10] <dr_willis> eifzon,  not sure there are any mdf to iso converter tools out. May have to do some googling for that.
[06:10] <obsethryl> rausb0: in debian you have trolling for no purpose; you ask for one thing and get another and if they cannot respond to a SIMPLE question (where do i find a particular debian graphical resource, like a wallpaper for example) they start becoming more aolified than their notorious and insulting !aolify trigger
[06:11] <Frogzoo_> dr_willis: mdf2iso :)
[06:11] <Deviad> Hello, I found this website by Google: http://www.linuxvar.it/index.php/Debian_su_MacBook_Pro#Illuminazione_schermo.2C_tastiera_e_sensori
[06:11] <dr_willis> Frogzoo_,  thats out now? :) wasent last i checked..
[06:11] <dr_willis> !find mdf
[06:11] <ubotu> Found: mdf2iso
[06:11] <rausb0> obsethryl: well maybe it's because people here have no problem saying "i don't know" if they cannot answer a question
[06:11] <dr_willis> there we go. :)
[06:11] <obsethryl> in anycase, ubuntu will make the daddy distro eclipse because of this simple factor: there is no monkey business with the user
[06:11] <dr_willis> !info mdf2iso
[06:12] <ubotu> mdf2iso: A simple utility to convert mdf to iso / cue / toc images. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.3.0-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 6 kB, installed size 60 kB
[06:12] <Deviad> I don't understand why the backlight doesn't lower when I unplug the ac
[06:12] <Frogzoo_> dr_willis: the other option is cdemu, but you have to compile that
[06:12] <obsethryl> rausb0: maybe so, but so far logs say that everyone gets to solve his/her issues
[06:12] <obsethryl> that is good
[06:12] <Deviad> according to the author it should work...
[06:12] <Deviad> :\
[06:12] <lori> is there a way to adjust video settings with fglrx like there is with nvidia cards?
[06:13] <obsethryl> asking a simple question does not mean you are a n00b or a mindless idiot; it means only that the question is simple, and simple things are not always meant to be easy
[06:13] <Utooo> Hello, I've got a question, i hope someone is able to help me with. I use a laptop, with both windowsxp and vista installed. When i boot it, it lets me choose which windows i want to boot. I have 4 partitions on my laptop, and i was wondering if i could install Ubuntu without problems to a partition, since i need the xp and vista for schoolwork, i'll need to able o still boot these aswell. If this is possible?
[06:13] <obsethryl> anyway got to run now, i am late for some work :s
[06:13] <lori> Frogzoo_: i was able to fix my problem last night, btw, but i had to do some more research... and thank you.
[06:13] <rausb0> obsethryl: well, only if he/she is giving enough information. and getting this info from a newbie who is totally lost can be painful sometimes.
[06:13] <dawn_chorus> Utooo, yes, it's possible.  is one of those partitions unused?
[06:13] <dr_willis> Utooo,  may be easier to use vmware and juyst run linux in a virtual machine
[06:14] <Utooo> nope, theyre all in use with data dawn_chorus
[06:14] <Azrael---> ubotu, fglrx
[06:14] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:14] <dawn_chorus> Utooo, then you may be in a pickle.  I'd take dr_willis's advice.
[06:14] <Azrael---> ubotu, uninstalling fglrx
[06:14] <Utooo> ah yes vmware, i heard of that a while ago, thanks dr_willis and dawn_chorus
[06:14] <orbisvicis> anyone have any idea how to disable that effect ?
[06:15] <dawn_chorus> orbisvicis, what effect?
[06:15] <Frogzoo_> obsethryl: somehow I think no matter what ubuntu does, core development will always happen upstream
[06:15] <kaaven> anyone here who uses amarok under ubuntu, it suddenly started to crash whenever I started it, I suspect it to be the xine engine, any suggestions or thoughts, please msg me :)
[06:15] <dr_willis> Utooo,  or 'virtual box'
[06:15] <Deviad> Can anyone pls help me with this little issue?
[06:15] <orbisvicis> dawn_chorus, if you click the tray icons (top bar, just to the right of system), you get an ugly transparent enlarging-square effect just before the program opens ?
[06:15] <ZeroA4> !ask
[06:16] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:16] <Azrael---> Deviad: Don't ask to ask your question, just ask the question.
[06:16] <Azrael---> Damnit!
[06:16] <Utooo> i reckon vmware might be more common to find? dr_willis
[06:16] <Azrael---> Ubotu beat me!
[06:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beat me! - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:16] <Azrael---> :/
[06:16] <ZeroA4> hahahaha
[06:16] <Deviad> Azrael---, I asked the question... :P http://www.linuxvar.it/index.php/Debian_su_MacBook_Pro#Illuminazione_schermo.2C_tastiera_e_sensori These scripts are supposed to lower the backlight besides the clock of the cpu when you unplug the power cable
[06:16] <dawn_chorus> orbisvicis, that's probably in Animation > Create or so.
[06:16] <AL37> XD
[06:16] <obsethryl> rausb0: ok, last call though for me since i have to go: nobody has the right to assume things about you if they have never seen you before; their only right is to criticise the answer, not the question, given the fact that the question comes from somebody in the homo sapiens sapiens species and it readily articulate and to the point. Missing information is a relative issue since the key issue here is knowing what you want to do first; the rest
[06:16] <obsethryl> you may lack of if you don't know or doing this for the first time; but in anycase, nobody has the right to a priori judge you for the typology of questions of map out behavioural patterns from the questions...
[06:16] <Deviad> Azrael---, unfortunately they do not work
[06:16] <Deviad> :\
[06:17] <Deviad> I wanna know why...
[06:17] <orbisvicis> dawn_chorus, where is Animation ?
[06:17] <Deviad> the clock stuff works... but the backlight thing does not
[06:17] <obsethryl> Frogzoo_: it may be, it may be not; debian has turned themselves into a component supermarket for "third - party" distributions. That is sad.
[06:17] <dawn_chorus> orbisvicis, Beryl Manager > Visual Effects > Animations > Create
[06:18] <obsethryl> anyway, i think this chat is offtopic, bbl, and have fun, this is really a nice channel, judging from the logs i have been reading so far :)
[06:18] <dromer> omfg, I seem to have overwriten all the files on my external hd, I han a number of folders and files, then I cp-ed one single .avi to /media/usbdrive/ and now everything is gone exept the file .. is there any way to reverse it? (fs is fat32 btw)
[06:19] <obsethryl> and, i underline this fact: i converted to *ubuntu 99.999999999% because at least this way i don't get pissed in IRC :)
[06:19] <lleberg> I have the strangest problem i have ever come across with in ubuntu, here is a screenshot.. http://enhjulingsfolket.se//uploaded/Sk%E4rmbild.png
[06:19] <lleberg> after a update that said something went wrong, it is like this
[06:19] <kneeki> Hmm, anyone know how to get ATI's crossfire working in Ubuntu? I'm having some issues =(
[06:19] <orbisvicis> oh right, that should override ubuntu default animation ... hmm dawn_chorus would it fall under dock ?
[06:19] <Utooo> dr_willis, Virtual PC, might that work u reckon?
[06:19] <lleberg> everything is working, but not the text in gnome apps, and i have a pretty hard time changing them since all hte chars in gnome apps are broken :)
[06:20] <dawn_chorus> orbisvicis, I dunno.
[06:20] <PriceChild> lleberg, what did you do to break it? :)
[06:20] <Azrael---> kneeki: I'm presuming you've googled for the answer first?
[06:20] <dr_willis> Utooo,  i perfer vmwareserver to virtualbox (vurtialpc is a different product) ibelive
[06:20] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: update to what? I'm guessing your fonts paths in /etc/X11/xorg.conf need changing
[06:21] <Azrael---> I think VMWare is better too.
[06:21] <lleberg> PriceChild, Well, it wasnt me
[06:21] <dr_willis> http://www.virtualbox.org/
[06:21] <kneeki> Azrael, actually, no. I did the normal 'Use restricted drivers' and it auto did everything like before. But instead of booting like normal, it just throws me at a black screen that I cannot get out of w/o closing down X. However, google seems like a valid responce too ;)
[06:21] <Utooo> thanks a bunch dr_willis
[06:21] <lleberg> PriceChild, After a updating of programs, in gnome update-somethingsomething
[06:21] <CheshireViking> lleberg, i've had a similar error in the past - I noticed it trying to use the nvidia settings app, I couldn't solve it at the time & I couldn't find anyone who could help - I can't remember what i was doing, maybe it was something to do with updating ruby & associated app's, I'm afraid I ended up reinstalling to solve it
[06:22] <Azrael---> Hey guys, do me a favour... from a terminal in gnome, type 'glxgears'.
[06:22] <CarlFK> sdb is currently one big partition sdb1.  I want to shrink it to make a 2nd swap partition.  whats a good way?
[06:22] <Azrael---> Leave it running till it tells you something in the console.
[06:22] <Azrael---> I need to know what the average framerate is...I swear mine used to be more than 442.
[06:22] <lleberg> CheshireViking, just gnome or the whole kalbalungah?
[06:22] <graveson> i unplugged my USB headset and connected it back after some time,now the sound still comes through the speakers enventhough the headset is the preferred device
[06:23] <CheshireViking> lleberg, actually, i'll rephrase that comment, it didn't solve it, but it did stop me having the problem
[06:23] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: depends on your vid card - 9600 gives you 400 odd
[06:23] <dyrne> Azrael---: mine is 12000 somthing
[06:23] <boguh> hi, just installed postgres8.1, then uninstalled it with --purge then installed 8.2. why are there still config files for postgres 8.1 in /etc/postgres?
[06:23] <dyrne> Azrael---: i think glxgears is pretty cpu bound too though
[06:23] <graveson> i unplugged my USB headset and connected it back after some time,now the sound still comes through the speakers enventhough the headset is the preferred device.anyway on how to fix this
[06:23] <RivaeAerya> I want to setup Windows for gaming, but i only have Ubuntu partitions. How can I divide safely, without ruining anything, and install windows on a special partitions?
[06:23] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: yeah, double check your font paths in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:23] <CarlFK> Azrael---: try glxgears -iacknowledgethatthistoolisnotabenchmark
[06:23] <Azrael---> Ty Frogzoo_ and dyrne.
[06:24] <Azrael---> I've got a 9200 card, so 400 seems OK.
[06:24] <dr_willis> i though glxgears removed that idiotic option and made it the default again.
[06:24] <CheshireViking> lleberg, it was only certain applications, firefox, evolution, thunderbird, xchat etc all worked fine, it was only apps similar to nvidia settings that used the same character set
[06:24] <Azrael---> But I swear I used to get over 2000 with fglrx :(
[06:24] <lleberg> CheshireViking, oh, here it's only gnomish apps
[06:24] <orbisvicis> dawn_chorus, thanks for the help ... looking up the window types now
[06:24] <CheshireViking> lleberg, when i said reinstall, it was the whole thing, it was early in my ubuntu experience, so i didn't lose anything
[06:25] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, Now i am, what sohuld it look like? ZR
[06:25] <thingfish> Azrael---: 400 is way low.  You must not have any accelerated drivers working.
[06:25] <dawn_chorus> orbisvicis, your welcome.
[06:25] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, =) even
[06:25] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: ah soz, I get 1200 odd, 400 with fgl_glxgears
[06:25] <Azrael---> I got 1300 that time.
[06:25] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: feisty?
[06:25] <dedi> My X hangs up when starting up and booting without *single*. My xorg.0.log doesnt have any EE line. where else could i look for errors?
[06:25] <Azrael---> Must have been some background processess running, too.
[06:25] <thingfish> unless glxgears has changed
[06:26] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, Actually i don't know, how do i check ity? it isn't really my computer
[06:26] <orbisvicis> how do I apt-get install a local package ?
[06:26] <Rio79> im having trouble with my apache http server.  i set it up so that it would listen on port X.  on my router, i have configured it so that it listens for port 80, then would be forwarded to port X.  Then i would try to type in the ip address and it works fine if i am on a computer where the server that is running is on the same LAN.  However, the ip address doesnt work if i am on a computer that is outside that LAN.  anyone kn
[06:26] <boguh> why there are still config files when i remove with --purge?
[06:26] <pjman> I'm getting USB hard drive I/O errors on read in fresh Feisty install. Works fine in Feisty LiveCD (and Windows XP). Log files /var/log/messages & /var/log/dmesg are listed here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=449562. I'm looking for suggestions for further troubleshooting. Thanks.
[06:26] <CarlFK> orbisvicis: debi or soemthing ... just a sec
[06:26] <CheshireViking> lleberg, just checked back at my posting forums, i wasn't even using ubuntu, I was playing with Slackware at the time
[06:26] <Azrael---> orbisvicis: You don't do apt-get install <local package>...
[06:26] <graveson> i unplugged my USB headset and connected it back after some time,now the sound still comes through the speakers enventhough the headset is the preferred device.anyway on how to fix this
[06:26] <lleberg> CheshireViking, ah :/
[06:26] <Azrael---> you dpkg -i <local package>
[06:26] <orbisvicis> oh
[06:26] <orbisvicis> ok
[06:26] <CarlFK> gdebi - Simple tool to install deb files
[06:27] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: lsb_release -a
[06:27] <vbabiy> Hey guys what is the benefit of install Ubuntu Server over Ubuntu for a server?
[06:27] <CarlFK> dpkg won't install the deps, gdebi will
[06:27] <AnkleBiter> hello, does anyone have any recommendations for me? i need a stand alone flash player
[06:27] <eobanb> vbabiy, no x or other unnecessary packages
[06:27] <nergar> after an update, how do i restart apache? or i need to reboot?
[06:27] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, Looks like edgy.
[06:27] <ZeroA4> vbabiy, Ubuntu server come without graphical interface
[06:27] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: this works on feisty: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22176/
[06:27] <Azrael---> What does lsb_release do?
[06:27] <CarlFK> vbabiy: server dosnt' install a bunch of stuff you dont need on a server, like X and OO and games and and...
[06:27] <CheshireViking> lleberg, this the link to the forum posting I made at the time, i was using kde, but it says what apps i was installing just before it went wrong, maybe that'll give a hint to somebody else as to whats gone wrong if it is the same http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=478164&highlight=font
[06:28] <vbabiy> So other then that there is really no other benefit
[06:28] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: man lsb_release
[06:28] <dedi> anyone got black screen when starting X already with fresh installation (liveCD works, Ati (tried several xorg.confs and drivers), nfroce3, 64bit)
[06:28] <vbabiy> because i am thing about swapping out my Windows 2003 Server for ubuntu server
[06:28] <CarlFK> vbabiy: there might be a different kernel.
[06:28] <Azrael---> Frogzoo_: I didn't need help with fonts.
[06:28] <eobanb> vbabiy, well if you are running a server it is completely pointless to include sudoku on it
[06:28] <Fivetwentysix> How do i delete a folder that i dont have permission to delete with files in it which i can't find
[06:28] <Azrael---> You must have got the wrong guy.
[06:29] <Azrael---> With the pastebin link.
[06:29] <vbabiy> okay my next question is it hard to setup SAMBA
[06:29] <CarlFK> vbabiy: if you are using it for a server, then you want -server.  if you want it for a desktop, then you want -desktop :)
[06:29] <nergar> after an apache update, how do i restart apache? or i need to reboot???
[06:29] <orbisvicis> CarlFK, gdebi
[06:29] <eobanb> vbabiy, no, it is fairly easy
[06:29] <dr_willis> vbabiy,  i dont find it hard.. but i did RTFM :)
[06:29] <dr_willis> !find samba-doc
[06:29] <arvind> hi again !! i wish to ask whether is it possible to use ubuntu 6.06 LTS desktop CD to act as a package repository for the ubuntu 6.06 LTS server installation?
[06:29] <eobanb> nergar, sudo /etc/init.d/httpd restart
[06:29] <ubotu> Found: samba-doc, samba-doc-pdf
[06:29] <dr_willis> !info samba-doc
[06:29] <ubotu> samba-doc: Samba documentation. In component main, is optional. Version 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.1 (feisty), package size 6754 kB, installed size 14512 kB
[06:29] <Azrael---> And the lsb_release, too, Frogzoo.
[06:29] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: this works on feisty: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22176/
[06:29] <ZeroA4> vbabiy, not really hard... not really easy either
[06:29] <Rio79> nerger i think its sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[06:30] <Azrael---> That's more like it frog :)
[06:30] <eobanb> vbabiy, it depends on how complicated your setup is
[06:30] <arvind> hi again !! i wish to ask whether is it possible to use ubuntu 6.06 LTS desktop CD to act as a package repository for the ubuntu 6.06 LTS server installation?
[06:30] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: heh
[06:30] <Rio79> im having trouble with my apache http server.  i set it up so that it would listen on port X.  on my router, i have configured it so that it listens for port 80, then would be forwarded to port X.  Then i would try to type in the ip address and it works fine if i am on a computer where the server that is running is on the same LAN.  However, the ip address doesnt work if i am on a computer that is outside that LAN.  anyone kn
[06:30] <vbabiy> Is there a good tutorial on setup
[06:30] <Zerf> hello
[06:30] <CarlFK> arvind: yes. (hold...)
[06:30] <dr_willis> vbabiy,  thers 100;s of web sites wth info on samba. and whole books on it. :) some of which are in the repos. and worth reading
[06:30] <eobanb> Rio79, i would assume that it is the router's fault then.
[06:30] <arvind> thanks CarlFK :) i shall wait for your reply
[06:31] <CarlFK> arvind: do you want it 'local' or on a web server ?
[06:31] <anabelle> heyhey! is it poddible to add backgroun music to a Video Clip in Kino?
[06:31] <Rio79> eoban yeah i dont know what it could be.... about the router
[06:31] <arvind> CarlFK, few secs to explain what i intend to do please bear with me
[06:31] <vbabiy> hey guys i have one more question i am running ubuntu Desktop on this machine and i get weird network behavior here are some screen shots http://vbabiy.mine.nu:8080/bandwidthError.html
[06:31] <eobanb> anabelle, i think there is a kino irc channel where people might be able to help you with
[06:31] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, I'll simply try that
[06:31] <anabelle> i want to add a song as a soundtrack to a video but i cant find out how...
[06:31] <majnoon>  NUT NUT
[06:32] <anabelle> sorry duckfart ii misstyoed :$
[06:32] <USMarine> anabelle try kino
[06:32] <DuckFart> :)
[06:32] <eobanb> vbabiy, what are you transferring on your network?
[06:32] <anabelle> USMarine i am using kino, but i cant findout how to add custom sound.
[06:32] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, No real luck there
[06:33] <USMarine> there should be a bar with background sound
[06:33] <arvind> CarlFK, i am installing server 6.06 LTS and wish to install xubuntu-desktop .... to cut short the download time of the packages i was wondering if i could add the ubuntu-destop 6.06 CD as one of the repositry
[06:33] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, You think i chould uninstall gnome-desktop and then reinstalling it?
[06:33] <anabelle> in wich version?
[06:33] <CarlFK> arvind: this will help: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet
[06:33] <anabelle> im using 0.92
[06:33] <dr_willis> ive heard of issues when using a server cd/install and then building a desktop machine from it. :) just somthing to watch out for.,
[06:33] <eobanb> indeed.
[06:33] <USMarine> anabelle i dont have kino here sorry
[06:33] <Frogzoo_> vbabiy: if you run htop, you'll see which process is doing that
[06:34] <ernst> someone here that is using E-UAE ?
[06:34] <USMarine> try google or something
[06:34] <Azrael---> I'm following a guide on help.ubuntu.com/community, but it's referring to a package that's not there.
[06:34] <orbisvicis> does anyone know of a repository with a 64 bit opera ?
[06:34] <graveson> i unplugged my USB headset and connected it back after some time,now the sound still comes through the speakers enventhough the headset is the preferred device.anyway on how to fix this
[06:34] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: no real luck? you mean the font paths are ok?
[06:35] <Azrael---> I'm searching packages.ubuntu.com, but I can't find it in any distro.
[06:35] <Azrael---> graveson: Unplug the speakers :D
[06:35] <eobanb> orbisvicis, is there any reason why you cant use the 32-bit version
[06:35] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: funny, cos I had that same problem with the edgy upgrade, & it was the font paths
[06:35] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, Rather that it didn't make any diference as far as i can tell
[06:35] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: you need to restart gdm
[06:35] <vbabiy> eobanb: i am transfer a large file
[06:35] <anabelle> i dont know how to google for that USMarine, any suggestion
[06:35] <rem> hey planning to upgrade from edgy to feisty ...any big changes/surprises with this dist-upgrade .. ?
[06:35] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, But then i don't know if you fonts should work at all
[06:35] <orbisvicis> eobanb, i am on a 64 bit machine
[06:36] <Azrael---> eobanb: If you've got a 64-bit processor, then you should use 64-bit apps where possible.
[06:36] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, ctrl alt backspace should do that, right?
[06:36] <eobanb> orbisvicis, okay, but wouldnt you want 32-bit opera anyway for flash, etc?
[06:36] <dr_willis> orbisvicis,  you do realize a 64bt machine can run the 32bit disrtos just fine?
[06:36] <anabelle> i sont speak english very well and i dont know how "custom sound" is called
[06:36] <vbabiy> Frogzoo_: i know what process is doing that but its running at full gigabyte
[06:36] <Azrael---> rem: What graphics card do you have?
[06:36] <USMarine> anabelle http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=jFE&q=kino+background+sound&btnG=Search
[06:36] <arvind> CarlFK, thnaks for the link.... it seems complex.... but cant ubuntu-desktop CD work as repo for server 6.06?
[06:36] <Yunno> Azrael---: fix your ATI problem?
[06:36] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: you should also check the font paths you enter exist on disk
[06:36] <rem> ATI
[06:36] <Azrael---> Yunno: Not quite yet.
[06:36] <Azrael---> rem: What model?
[06:36] <eobanb> Azrael---, for a browser it's probably better to use 32-bit for the benefit of flash plugin and/or other plugins
[06:36] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, Whaat?
[06:36] <Frogzoo_> vbabiy: which process? these minor details help people who can't see what you can
[06:36] <orbisvicis> eobanb, oh right, got 64 bit java, but forgot about the flash .. shucks
[06:36] <vbabiy> o ok
[06:37] <CarlFK> arvind: yes.  basicaly look at the steps that talk about the CD
[06:37] <rem> had a few minor issues with it in precedant upgrades but nothing big ..
[06:37] <rem>  ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE]
[06:37] <orbisvicis> dr_willis, i will install the 32 bit version now : ]
[06:37] <Azrael---> DON'T DO IT
[06:37] <Azrael---> If you're using the fglrx driver.
[06:37] <vbabiy> well its when i am using smbfs to send file from a windows computer to this box both are on gigabit
[06:37] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, is it a genuine bad idea to uninstall ubuntu-desktop and then reinstall it? :P
[06:37] <Azrael---> Or the ati driver.
[06:37] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: eg: does /usr/share/fonts/X11 exist ?
[06:37] <ernst> How can one use ipf files with e-uae?
[06:37] <arvind> ok CarlFK thanks :) hope it works
[06:37] <Yunno> i got my ATI card to work yesterday finnaly
[06:37] <eobanb> Yunno, congrats :)
[06:37] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: not necessary, just restart X for starters
[06:37] <Azrael---> I've got a radeon 9200 - xorg 7.2 which is in feisty doesn't like it.
[06:38] <Yunno> i have a X1300
[06:38] <eobanb> the 9200 should work fine with the free radeon drivers rather than the ati driver
[06:38] <Azrael---> Well, that's easy then, ynno.
[06:38] <dr_willis> i got an x200m and fglrx dont like it much.. it crashes it.
[06:38] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, Yeah /usr/share/fonts/X11 exists
[06:38] <rem> Azrael...what did u have to do to make it work ?
[06:38] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, i have restarted x a couple of times
[06:38] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, i reseted the gnome-settings, no luck there
[06:38] <Azrael---> Change to the radeon drivers instead of the fglrx/ati drivers.
[06:39] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: and /var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType ? did you have to change xorg.conf ?
[06:39] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, or rather, i did "mv .gnome  gnome-bak"
[06:39] <dave66554> How quick is it for bugs to be fixed from when they are reported? do i have to wait till Gutsy to get sound?
[06:39] <rem>  lsmod | grep radeon
[06:39] <rem> radeon                118816  2
[06:39] <rem> drm                    74644  3 radeon
[06:39] <Azrael---> And then uninstall the fglrx drivers to get h/w acceleration
[06:39] <rem> think I already use it .. ?
[06:39] <CarlFK> dave66554: depends on the bug
[06:39] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, i did change the xosg.conf, but i can change it back
[06:39] <eobanb> the radeon driver is for the 9200 and below.  the ati driver is for anything above that.
[06:39] <Azrael---> rem: 'cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep radeon'
[06:39] <Yunno> Azrael---: i am having problems with my harware acceleration on my card
[06:39] <dave66554> hey....its a bug with my sound card / chip....lots of ppl have it
[06:40] <philwhln> hi, is there a memory leak monitor for ubuntu I can use to monitor a running program?
[06:40] <Frogzoo_> lleberg: if you changed the xorg.conf, and the new paths exist, I think that's your problem - now restart X
[06:40] <Azrael---> We need a #ubuntu-ati.
[06:40] <eobanb> rem, do you also have a 9200?
[06:40] <vbabiy> Frogzoo_:  okay I got htop what info do you need
[06:40] <rem> yea eob
[06:40] <jorik> I re-installed ubuntu on a diffrent partition, but at the end of the installation, grub-install failed. what should i do ? fdisk -l /dev/sda gives http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22178/ i don't know where grub currently is installed (the partiton or the MBR, how do you tell ?)

[06:41] <Yunno> nvm
[06:41] <eobanb> rem, afaik the radeon driver is already there

[06:42] <rem> I just need to modprobe it .. ?
[06:42] <eobanb> Azrael---, beat me to it :)

[06:42] <rem> yea ..course ... :)
[06:43] <lleberg> Frogzoo_, Couldn't i update to fiesty and solve the problem at the same time?
[06:43] <eobanb> lleberg, lsb_release -a
[06:43] <Frogzoo_> vbabiy: next step - run fireshark & do a packet trace - that will find it easily
[06:43] <Azrael---> lleberg: Feisty caused more problems for me that it did solve the,/
[06:43] <lleberg> eobanb, What? =)
[06:43] <Azrael---> *them
[06:43] <Azrael---> do lsb_release -a to find your distro
[06:43] <jmccc> what is needed in Feisty to have java applets work inside mozilla firefox?
[06:44] <eobanb> lleberg, to find out what version of ubuntu you are running, open a terminal and run lsb_release -a
[06:44] <rem> lleberg -> sudo lsb_release -a
[06:44] <lleberg> Azrael---, ah, great thanks
[06:44] <rem> 4 ex ..
[06:44] <vbabiy> Frogzoo_:  fireshark is this a appliaction
[06:44] <eobanb> Frogzoo_, dont you mean wireshark
[06:44] <Frogzoo_> vbabiy: yes
[06:44] <lleberg> Hm, i'm running Fiesty allright
[06:44] <Frogzoo_> eobanb: I do, oops - vbabiy wireshark

[06:54] <asdtest> hi
[06:54] <andar> my installation of ubuntu won't start up properly: in the shell it says "fsck died with exit status 4"   Is my harddrive corrupt?
[06:54] <diablos_raven> DBO it froze on the random number part
[06:54] <eobanb> omnius, i believe various audio players can interact with it now, e.g amarok
[06:55] <asdtest> i have ubuntu 6.06 lts, and i want to upgrade to feisty. is there a document that explain that?
[06:55] <omnius> thanks eobanb'
[06:55] <dyrne> andar: id boot from livecd and try to fsck the partition
[06:55] <b08y> asdtest: no, u need first to upgrade to edgy and than to feisty
[06:56] <andar> dyrne, is there any telling what the problem might be?
[06:57] <sipior> asdtest: frankly, your best bet is a reinstall, assuming your data is on a separate partition which won't be touched
[06:57] <diablos_raven> DBO what does it mean if it freezes
[06:57] <asdtest> b08y: have you got any links that describe the process?
[06:57] <asdtest> sipior: why reinstall?
[06:57] <linuxDAN> has anyone messed with compiz on feisty?
[06:57] <codecaine> yes
[06:57] <lleberg> im sure someone has..
[06:57] <sipior> asdtest: the upgrade process is not always perfect, and has changed a fair bit since the previous release
[06:58] <linuxDAN> codecaine: do you have an ATI graphics card
[06:58] <sipior> asdtest: but you can always have a go, might be better now
[06:58] <sipior> asdtest: worst that happens is that you need to reinstall :-)
[06:58] <asdtest> uhm ok. i'll follow your suggest, i'm going to reinstall
[06:58] <andar> what commands should I use to run fsck on my drive from the live cd?
[06:58] <asdtest> is there a mini-iso, so i can download only the packages during the install?
[06:58] <sipior> asdtest: but be sure to have a solid backup of your data, safety first...
[06:59] <ohzie> andar: What's wrong with the disk?
[06:59] <sipior> asdtest: i don't think so, but the installation cd itself is pretty minimal
[07:00] <sipior> asdtest: you might try the "server edition", if that's an issue
[07:00] <philwhln> how do i set the memory usage for give process id?
[07:00] <andar> ubuntu won't boot because fsck is failing--I don't know how to figure out exactly what's wrong--someone just suggested running fsck from the live cd
[07:01] <lleberg> can i check how much lan traffic i have atm?
[07:01] <lleberg> how fast i'm downloading..
[07:01] <lleberg> in terminal
[07:01] <robdeman_> folks I installed a fresch copy of Ubuntu 7.04 Desktop -- I need to get my USB wifidongle to work -- probably I need NdisWrapper -- should Install NdisWrapper from source or has Ubuntu Install CD NdisWrapper?
[07:01] <ohzie> andar: Try sudo fsck -p /dev/hda
[07:02] <ohzie> Also man fsck
[07:02] <ohzie> OH
[07:02] <ohzie> WAIT
[07:02] <ohzie> andar: Try sudo e2fsck -p /dev/hda
[07:02] <ohzie> Just in case you're using an older livecd. ;x
[07:02] <sipior> robdeman_: probably try the ubuntu install first, you can always remove it later if it doesn't work
[07:03] <andar> i have the latest live cd.. but, do i have to mount my drive before i can run fsck on it from the livecd?
[07:03] <New-Bie> hello...i have laptop with raid 0 2x60gb drives......i have xp pro installed and free 8gb space which i want to install ubuntu on it....but when booting ubuntu and prepare partitions...i see 2 drives there sda/sdb....what to do to not losing my raid 0 and xp ?
[07:03] <sipior> andar: in fact you should very explicitly NOT do so
[07:03] <andar> ok ;p
[07:03] <robdeman_> sipior: OK
[07:03] <sipior> andar: you can run fsck with just the device name, and it will run fine
[07:03] <ohzie> andar: Yeah what he said. =P
[07:03] <asdtest> sipior: ok, thank you =)
[07:04] <andar> alright--thank you ;)
[07:04] <omnius> eobanb: which media player exactly?
[07:05] <ernst> .quit
[07:05] <C_Kode> Last night I was playing mp3s and everything was fine.  This morning (didn't reboot) the mplayer couldn't open the sound device for some reason.  Is there a way to reset this when it happens without rebooting? (or anyone else have this problem?)
[07:05] <ohzie> C_Kode: sudo killall esd
[07:05] <ohzie> sudo esd
[07:05] <sipior> C_Kode: defunct process holding the device open?
[07:05] <C_Kode> ohzie: great thanks!

[07:06] <ohzie> C_Kode: No problem! I had a crappy soundcard once, too! :D
[07:06] <C_Kode> sipior: possibly.  I didn't have much time to look into it this morning.
[07:06] <ohzie> Bulgaria: :O
[07:06] <sipior> -Bulgaria/#ubuntu-: well said
[07:06] <New-Bie> hello!!?
[07:06] <C_Kode> ohzie: Nvidia onboard High Def sound card that came on my new motherboard.
[07:06] <WaxyFresh> totem is playing coler videos in black/white,anyone else ever have this problem?
[07:07] <sipior> WaxyFresh: what's a coler video?
[07:07] <AL37> New-Bie: You'd need to repartition both your disks to have two partitions each and use RAID 0 on both, though I can't imagine needing RAID 0 too badly on a laptop
[07:07] <ohzie> C_Kode: You'd have better luck with a sound blaster live
[07:07] <WaxyFresh> a video that has coler in it opposed to black and white
[07:07] <ohzie> Imagine, if you will, having two things that can use sound open...(AT THE SAME TIME!)
[07:07] <sipior> WaxyFresh: oh, colour! damn, that had me confused...
[07:07] <omnius> Stuff it I'll try windows ( oh did i say the taboo? well if ubuntu cant accomidate iRiver then what use is it?)
[07:07] <C_Kode> ohzie: I'm sure, but it's not that big of a deal providing it *does* play sound.  :)
[07:08] <body> j #fluxbox
[07:08] <WaxyFresh> sipior: any ideas?
[07:08] <New-Bie> AL37 i have hardware raid which is from the bios where i did the raid 0.....not software raid....its alienware laptop....but do you mean that i must not use raid or i cant install ubuntu now while i have xp installed in raid 0
[07:09] <lagrimo> how can i start ubuntu in runlebel 3
[07:09] <sipior> WaxyFresh: sadly, no. what type of video is it? quicktime, wma, other?
[07:09] <lagrimo> ??
[07:09] <Jamie> can any1 help me install beryl?
[07:09] <C_Kode> New-Bie: It's still probably software RAID.  It's just not Linux software RAID
[07:09] <ohzie> WaxyFresh: You said you're using totem? gstreamer or xine?
[07:09] <WaxyFresh> ohzie: gstreamer i think
[07:09] <AL37> New-Bie: So it came installed with the RAID array?
[07:09] <HlTMAN> hi
[07:10] <New-Bie> AL37 yep
[07:10] <Jamie> anybody? i have spent ages trying to install beryl can anyone help
[07:10] <schighschagh> I need to install Windows on a partition on my hard drive. Once I've done that, Windows will have removed Grub. How would I restore my boot loader without reinstalling Linux?
[07:10] <Jamie> i have an ati radeon express 200m series
[07:10] <ohzie> WaxyFresh: Go insto synaptic and install totem-xine. It'll  auto-uninstall gstreamer and make xine work. If you're still playing video in black and white it's something else.
[07:10] <ytoox> how can I define all the aspects of a video decoding with avidemux? The interface is a little confusing
[07:10] <New-Bie> so what to do now to not losing the windows + raid0....i want to keep my current settings and install ubuntu can that be !?
[07:10] <stefg> !grub schighschagh
[07:10] <SlimeyPete> Jamie: I have one of those. I'm running beryl as we speak.
[07:10] <AL37> As far as I know, no
[07:11] <stefg> !grub | schighschagh
[07:11] <ohzie> schighschagh: livecd "grub-install"
[07:11] <ubotu> schighschagh: 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
[07:11] <AL37> I think you'd have to repartition your drives
[07:11] <Azrael---> OK
[07:11] <Azrael---> If I quit suddenly, it's my computer exploding.
[07:12] <Azrael---> If not, I'll be using the ati driver w/ hardware acceleration.
[07:12] <Azrael---> brb.
[07:12] <C_Kode> New-Bie: It's still a software raid thats controlled by the Windows driver.  They can still work though (providing you have a linux driver for the raid.)  Though when I had a dual boot, both OSs were on a single 120GB drive and they shared the RAID0 as an extra data partition
[07:13] <Azrael---> woot!
[07:13] <Azrael---> the ati drivers are working.
[07:13] <Azrael---> Not sure about hardware acceleration, though...
[07:13] <C_Kode> gratz!
[07:13] <New-Bie> i am getting sick
[07:14] <stefg> New-Bie: what OS are you running right now talking tous?
[07:14] <sipior> lagrimo: modify the script that determines the defaul runlevel: /etc/event.d/rc-default
[07:14] <New-Bie> stefg i have xp installed
[07:14] <ytoox> help please
[07:15] <AlinuxOS> hello I've lost my username@localhost
[07:15] <New-Bie> and now running ubuntu 7.4 livecd
[07:15] <martinz___> hi, I can't get fglrx 8.28.8 to work with feisty
[07:15] <sipior> lagrimo: this changed in feisty, with the move to the new initscript setup
[07:15] <AlinuxOS> I see only "$" what's matter
[07:15] <sipior> AlinuxOS: what'd you change?
[07:15] <AlinuxOS> howto axecute BASH on start ?
[07:15] <stefg> New-Bie: so i didn't get the beginning. you have a fake raid-0 and want to install ubuntu?
[07:15] <martinz___> is there any tutorial showing how to accomplish this?
[07:15] <New-Bie> not fake raid
[07:15] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: fglrxinfo |grep -i direct
[07:15] <AL37> I'd believe it's a hardware RAID as it came configured by Alienware
[07:15] <New-Bie> my motherboard has a raid support and i use it
[07:15] <savetheWorld> AlinuxOS: did you change your .bash_profile or .bashrc files?
[07:16] <New-Bie> yeah hardware raid
[07:16] <Azrael---> Frog: The results of glxgears are fine for me :D
[07:16] <AlinuxOS> savetheWorld, yes I've lost them
[07:16] <Azrael---> and I'm not using fglrx, I'm using ati.
[07:16] <stefg> New-Bie: so what kind of controller has your machine and how is the win-raid set up mow?
[07:16] <savetheWorld> AlinuxOS: well those files ar ewhere your  username@localhost are.
[07:16] <New-Bie> stefg windows sees it as 1 drive
[07:16] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: i guess your user has /bin/sh set as login shell
[07:16] <savetheWorld> *are where
[07:17] <New-Bie> and i have the image windows installed i didn`t install it step by step
[07:17] <stefg> New-Bie: by Bios setting? ... this is called fake-raid
[07:17] <AL37> 2x60GB drives he said earleir @ stef
[07:17] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: and /bin/sh is a symlink to /bin/dash since edgy
[07:17] <AL37> *earlier
[07:17] <savetheWorld> AlinuxOS: what is the line for your user account in /etc/apsswd?
[07:17] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: soz, glxinfo |grep -i direct
[07:17] <AlinuxOS> savetheWorld, howto see in which directory I am ?
[07:17] <martinz___> tried to apply fglrx kernel patches... still couldn't get it to work, any ideas?
[07:17] <savetheWorld> AlinuxOS: pwd
[07:17] <Azrael---> frogzoo, i've already done it :D
[07:17] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: pwd
[07:18] <New-Bie> stefg so what i should do
[07:18] <savetheWorld> AlinuxOS: run this:  grep Your_UserName /etc/passwd
[07:18] <C_Kode> AL37: Who makes the raid chipset?  I doubt it's a real hardware raid. Especially if it's in a laptop
[07:18] <AlinuxOS> marco:x:1001:1001::/home/marco:/bin/sh
[07:18] <stefg> New-Bie: so what disk-controller do you have? (look in device-manager)
[07:18] <savetheWorld> rausb0: you got it. 2 points :-)
[07:18] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: run chsh and change login shell to /bin/bash
[07:19] <New-Bie> stefg i have ubuntu livecd running now.....lspci ?
[07:19] <alex__> so total newb question, if u set up a server in ubuntu, can u become ur own isp?
[07:19] <AlinuxOS> rauble, where ?
[07:19] <martinz___> nobody running fglrx?!
[07:19] <stefg> New-Bie: yes.... :-)
[07:19] <savetheWorld> AlinuxOS: run chsh and when it prompts you enter /bin/bash
[07:19] <tashe>  how can i download and instal eclipse?
[07:19] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: on the current shell. chsh is a command.
[07:19] <arpegius> anyone have a link for me w/ a good solution to set up my machine as a media playback box? to start, i'd like to use my laptop's itunes to play mp3s on my ubuntu box. recommended approaches?
[07:19] <SlimeyPete> tashe: use synaptic.
[07:19] <sunnypies> savetheWorld: what does grep Username /etc/passwd do?
[07:20] <AlinuxOS> rauble, done :)
[07:20] <savetheWorld> sunnypies: it output any lines from the file /etc/passwd with that user name in them
[07:20] <dawn_chorus> tashe, sudo apt-cache search eclipse to see if it's in the repos.
[07:20] <stefg> New-Bie: and give a 'sudo fdisk -l' listing to pastebin if possible
[07:20] <sunnypies> New-Bie: yes if you set it to a static ip
[07:20] <spotted> I just want to bring to your attention that that this bug has not been fixed for more than 200 days: http://rafb.net/p/aFwkWk13.html
[07:20] <savetheWorld> sunnypies: like this: marco:x:1001:1001::/home/marco:/bin/sh
[07:20] <dxdemetriou> Can I make scripts for umount/eject/fsck in Computer place on gnome?
[07:20] <spotted> Thanks
[07:20] <Azrael---> spotted, what is the bug?
[07:20] <spotted> a bug in pcidev
[07:20] <sunnypies> savetheWorld: thats cool
[07:21] <New-Bie> stefg RAID bus controller: promise technology, inc, fastrack 378/SATA
[07:21] <sunnypies> savetheWorld: is that where the passwords are stored?
[07:21] <rausb0> sunnypies: /etc/passwd is the user database. it holds all account data except for the password hash (which is in /etc/shadow)
[07:21] <spotted> pciutils-dev
[07:21] <savetheWorld> AlinuxOS: logour and login back in again, please tell me if it fixed it.
[07:21] <spotted> there's a bug in there
[07:21] <stefg> New-Bie: ok... gimme a sec
[07:21] <Azrael---> ok then
[07:21] <savetheWorld> sunnypies: 20 yearts ago it was. not anymore
[07:21] <savetheWorld> *years
[07:21] <sunnypies> rausb0: ok thnks
[07:21] <New-Bie> take your time stefg :D
[07:21] <spotted> It has been already reported on debian ml as well but it has not been fixed yet
[07:21] <spotted> :(
[07:21] <Azrael---> does anybody know to stop fsck forcing a disk check every 30 boots?
[07:22] <AlinuxOS> rauble, it's ok now
[07:22] <dawn_chorus> Azrael---, you want it to do that.
[07:22] <AlinuxOS> but my user can't reboot system
[07:22] <AlinuxOS> sudo reboot
[07:22] <AlinuxOS> dosen0t work
[07:22] <C_Kode> Azrael: You can disable fsck all together in fstab, but I don't recommend that
[07:22] <rausb0> sunnypies: old unix systems (before 1998 or so) had password hashes stored in /etc/passwd
[07:22] <Azrael---> dawn_chorus: No, I don't.
[07:22] <Azrael---> ok, i'll play around with fstab.
[07:22] <sunnypies> rausb0: oh ok seems like your a linux veteran
[07:22] <Azrael---> maybe it's a switch passed to it or something.
[07:22] <Frogzoo_> spotted: they won't take your patch?
[07:22] <rausb0> sunnypies: i use linux since 1996
[07:23] <spotted> Frogzoo_, I have no patch for it :p I am not a developer
[07:23] <sipior> Azrael---: check out tune2fs -m, if you're running ext2/3
[07:23] <spotted> I just found this issue while compiling a program
[07:23] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: with tune2fs
[07:23] <Azrael---> ok, i will.
[07:23] <sipior> Azrael---: beg pardon, tune2fs -c
[07:23] <Azrael---> thanks.
[07:23] <spotted> I googled around and found out it is an unsolved bug... the problem is that it had to be fixed more than 200 days ago
[07:23] <spotted> ^^
[07:23] <spotted> hehe
[07:24] <stefg> New-Bie: but i can tell you already that you will have to do an alternate install, and that you better use some windows-tool to make room on the drives (shrink the win-partition) . libparted isn't very reliable in that setup, you'd need a backup anyway
[07:24] <froojnd> I was updating and at the end was error, couse public key is not available http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22183/ what does that mean how can I fix it and how can I get valid key ??
[07:24] <Azrael---> sipior: What would I set it to if I wanted to disable it completely? -1?
[07:24] <sipior> Azrael---: 0
[07:24] <Azrael---> ok, thanks.
[07:25] <martinz___> nobody working with fglrx?
[07:25] <Frogzoo_> spotted: it's pretty rare for the kernel not to build - using the right compiler?
[07:25] <martinz___> mobility 9000 or similar?

[07:25] <New-Bie> stefg ive already used partitionmagic and did 6gb ext3 and 2gb swap
[07:25] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: how do you use sudo?
[07:25] <AlinuxOS> marco@solotubi:/home$ sudo reboot
[07:25] <AlinuxOS> marco@solotubi:/home$
[07:26] <New-Bie> but i dont see them in the partition table in the ubuntu wizard i just see the drives....sda/sdb
[07:26] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: it doesn't prompt for a password?
[07:26] <stefg> New-Bie: far too much swap... 512MB is enough
[07:26] <Timsen> rausb0: just create a password for root and use the root user
[07:26] <AlinuxOS> rauble, no :)
[07:26] <Azrael---> Every time I type 'tune2fs -c0' or -c 0, it just prints out the usage instructions... is that normal?
[07:26] <andar> ohzie, or anyone who can help, I've run fsck on my ubuntu partition from the live cd, and it returns  "Inodes that were part of a corrupted orphan linked list found." and "unexpected inconsistency; run fsck manually"..  Can you help me with further steps or link me a site that might help me with this?
[07:26] <rausb0> Timsen: that is not recommended on ubuntu
[07:26] <New-Bie> stefg yeah but just because i have 1gb ram and maybe after i'll put another 1gb
[07:26] <SlimeyPete> Azrael---: you need to supply it with a partition
[07:26] <sipior> Azrael---: you'll need to tell it which partition you're referring to...
[07:26] <Timsen> Azrael---: you should add the partition
[07:27] <unimatrix9> is there an hack to view docx files?
[07:27] <dxdemetriou> sipior, I mean to right click on some partition and whatever I do to know what partition is (like /dev/hda6). Something similar to "$1" that works on Computer
[07:27] <New-Bie> but now why i cant see the partitions stefg....what todo ?
[07:27] <stefg> New-Bie: oh , for hibernating, i see
[07:27] <Frogzoo_> Azrael---: you need to give it a path to the partition
[07:27] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: is your user in the group "admin"?
[07:27] <SlimeyPete> Azrael---: e.g. "tune2fs -c 0 /dev/sda1", if I remember correctly
[07:27] <Timsen> rausb0: i know, but I like the workflow without the sudo :)
[07:27] <SlimeyPete> (assuming sda1 is your partition)

[07:27] <Fivetwentysix> Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager.

[07:29] <Geeerd> what shud i do to view youtube videos on ubuntu in firefox?
[07:29] <BlackDesign> Timsen, do I just type about:plugin in Firefox?
[07:29] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: you created this user after installing, right?
[07:29] <AlinuxOS> yes
[07:29] <AlinuxOS> rausb0, aha
[07:29] <Azrael---> martinz___: I've had no luck with fglrx with my radeon9200.
[07:29] <Timsen> BlackDesign: i forgot the trailing s on about:plugins
[07:30] <New-Bie> stefg like which cd to get ?
[07:30] <Azrael---> Try the "ati" driver, and then the "radeon" driver if you get no luck with ati.
[07:30] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: the primary used (created during install) is in the "admin" group
[07:30] <stefg> !alternate | New-Bie
[07:30] <ubotu> New-Bie: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[07:30] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: *primary user
[07:30] <AlinuxOS> yes
[07:30] <dxdemetriou> sipior, sudo mount -o loop "$1" /media/iso/. I have it on scripts, and the "$1" means the name of file I right-click on. I just want to have options on partitions for umount/eject and fsck
[07:30] <unimatrix9> is there an hack to view or convert docx files?
[07:30] <New-Bie> stefg i have ubuntu 7.4 dvd....is that good ?
[07:30] <stefg> !Download | New-Bie
[07:30] <ubotu> New-Bie: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[07:30] <AlinuxOS> rausb0,
[07:30] <Kyral_Laptop> dxdemetriou: Use FUSEISO
[07:30] <AlinuxOS> ok
[07:30] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: use that one to use sudo and to put user "marco" into group "admin"
[07:30] <AlinuxOS> I understood
[07:30] <martinz___> Azrael---, the ati/radeon drivers work fine, but the performance is not good enough compared with fglrx, even if options like "EnablePageFlipping" are enabled
[07:30] <Kyral_Laptop> dxdemetriou: Then you won't need sudo
[07:30] <BlackDesign> Timsen, just trying to reinstall the mplayer plugin
[07:31] <AlinuxOS> rausb0, sudo usermod -G admin username   ?
[07:31] <rausb0> AlinuxOS: alright, i got to go
[07:31] <Azrael---> martinz___: Under ati/radeon, did you have hardware acceleration?
[07:31] <stefg> New-Bie: hmmm. i dont know if it provides the alternate installer. i do net-installs and never ever had a DVD in my hands
[07:31] <martinz___> Azrael---, yes, I did.
[07:31] <Azrael---> :/
[07:31] <bulltitan> hi my laptop is a compaq 600mhz 192 mb ram,.. will ubuntu studio work here?
[07:31] <Kyral_Laptop> "Ubuntu Studio"? WTF
[07:31] <sipior> dxdemetriou: well, there's one problem i see right away: fsck should never be run on a partition that's mounted, but the icon is only displayed when the partition is mounted...
[07:31] <SlimeyPete> it's the audio-studio version
[07:31] <Azrael---> I should try playing a 3d game. I haven't since I got hardware acceleration working with ati.
[07:32] <stefg> New-Bie: and forget about the How-to i gave you.... awfully outdated
[07:32] <Kyral_Laptop> SlimeyPete: ....I just lost respect for Ubuntu...
[07:32] <martinz___> Azrael---, I think the drivers are ok and getting better every time, but they just don't accelerate things as well as the proprietary drivers
[07:32] <Kyral_Laptop> *pounds head into wall*
[07:32] <SlimeyPete> bulltitan: standard ubuntu prefers 256MB of RAM plus. I would imagine that audio apps take up a lot of RAM. But I don't know - I've never used ubuntu-studio
[07:32] <sipior> Kyral_Laptop: why is that a problem?
[07:32] <New-Bie> humm
[07:32] <bulltitan> thanks
[07:33] <stefg> New-Bie: as i read the DVD has the alternate installer
[07:33] <Kyral_Laptop> sipior: Lemme guess, it comes with stuff like TheGIMP, and other multimedia tools preinstalled right?
[07:33] <martinz___> Azrael---, I think I will move back to dapper.
[07:33] <Azrael---> gtkpod keeps segfaulting whenever I start it :( It has since edgy -> feisty.
[07:33] <Azrael---> Back to dapper?
[07:33] <Azrael---> Seriously?
[07:33] <martinz___> yeah
[07:33] <sipior> Kyral_Laptop: well, regular ubuntu does as well. your point being?
[07:33] <spotted> http://rafb.net/p/mXRTpP62.html Can anyone pls tell me what's wrong with the 5th line?
[07:33] <Azrael---> fglrx worked fine with me under edgy.
[07:33] <Kyral_Laptop> sipior: Then whats the difference
[07:33] <New-Bie> stefg ....going to burn the dvd image and check it out :D
[07:33] <Kyral_Laptop> To me its making another name without justification
[07:33] <martinz___> yes, but edgy won't be supported for too long anymore
[07:33] <New-Bie> thanks alot i really appreciate it stefg :D
[07:34] <sipior> Kyral_Laptop: like kubuntu, edubuntu, &cet. Fair enough, i see your point.
[07:34] <SlimeyPete> Kyral_Laptop: 's the same with Edubuntu. It's just easier for people who are intending to use their systems mainly for a specific purpose, as opposed to being general-purpose boxes.
[07:34] <andar> is it safe for me to run fsck 'manually' on my apparently corrupted partition?
[07:34] <Kyral_Laptop> andar: yes
[07:34] <SlimeyPete> you can turn vanilla ubuntu into any of them, but it requires effort.
[07:34] <spotted> Can anyone pls tell me what's wrong with the 5th line of this script: http://rafb.net/p/mXRTpP62.html ?
[07:34] <stefg> New-Bie: the key is 'mdadm' that's the tool to use to set up and manage raid
[07:34] <Kyral_Laptop> SlimeyPete: Then make a meta-pack
[07:34] <andar> should i just choose yes for all prompts?
[07:34] <Kyral_Laptop> but a whole new distro name?
[07:34] <AL37> Mmm, effort.
[07:34] <SlimeyPete> Kyral_Laptop: well yeah, that's probably a good idea
[07:34] <New-Bie> humm
[07:34] <Kyral_Laptop> KISS :D
[07:35] <AL37> Imagine the things we could achieve if we were willing to expend effort!
[07:35] <SlimeyPete> Kyral_Laptop: I don't think it's official (though I'm not sure). I think it was started by ubuntu fans.
[07:35] <Kyral_Laptop> Wow....I actually got people to agree with me..
[07:35] <Kyral_Laptop> I half expected to be flamed
[07:35] <mark__> hello, i just swapped over from windows XP cause it was crashing on me all the time, but i have 2 hard drives. Now I can read everything of my other hard drive but i cant write anything on it. Is there anyone with a simple solution to my problem?
[07:35] <Kyral_Laptop> dxdemetriou: You are trying to make a right click ISO mounter or something right?
[07:35] <C_Kode> Kyral_Laptop:  Microsoft does it backwards.  Instead of WindowsXP it should be XPWindows and NT4Windows.  Ubuntu has it right in KUbuntu and XUbuntu.  :P

[07:36] <andar> Kyral_Laptop; when i run fsck manually should I just choose yes at every prompt?
[07:36] <Azrael---> Though if I could have found out how to, I probably would have...
[07:36] <AL37> Yeah
[07:36] <Azrael---> Anyway, time for dinner.
[07:36] <PreZLaptop> its kind of sad I had to compile beryl-xgl myself to get it working right :(
[07:36] <Azrael---> Bubi.
[07:36] <PreZLaptop> but oh well
[07:36] <zak_> rob__: google it... it's well covered on ubuntu's wikis and such
[07:36] <dxdemetriou> sipior, I know that. On Computer I can have umount or eject option but not both. The eject option don't work now on Feisty and I turned it to umount, and every time I have to umount external usb disk it don't power down, and I must find what sd?? is to do eject /dev/sd??. That's why I try to find how to extend the right click options on computer
[07:37] <AL37> It's like Tomboy Notes with ink capabilities and easy screenshotting and stuff
[07:37] <Kyral_Laptop> andar: Yah, but if your partition is already corrupted...
[07:37] <rob__> why isnt the nvidia driver installed by default? I smell itrs som elicne thing.. but what?

[07:38] <zak_> Frogzoo_: it's sorta like a normal word processing app, but it has a list of named pages down the side, and you can just click anywhere and start typing and such... good for getting ideas down as you're thinking them, simpler/easier/faster than a full word processor
[07:38] <SlimeyPete> orbisvicis: my (crap) radeon 200m manages about 1800
[07:38] <frying_fish> I think I picked a bad time to ask this
[07:38] <C_Kode> hilts50: dd
[07:38] <zak_> Frogzoo_: but you'd have to actually use it to understand just how nice it is :)
[07:38] <Kyral_Laptop> feliciano: ext3 is tried and true. So if it works...go for it
[07:39] <hilts50> c_Kode: dd?
[07:39] <bulltitan> kyral_Laptop i agree i mean it depends on who is asking for it but for me the only real distros are ubuntu, xubuntu, kubuntu and the up coming fluxbuntu
[07:39] <Frogzoo_> zak_: think you'll find extensions for ff that do that
[07:39] <C_Kode> hilts50: man dd
[07:39] <BigFre> How long should it take to install ubuntu 7.04 on an HP pavilon 600 mhz cleron 198 MB ram?
[07:39] <orbisvicis> somethings wrong then my sli 2x nvidia 6600 gets ~2300 and lags
[07:39] <sipior> dxdemetriou: i see. you're looking for nautilus scripts then. i'm not sure how you get the partition name from nautilus, but you might google for nautlius scripts, see what turns up
[07:39] <Kyral_Laptop> bulltitan: Yah but it irks me when people think that the Metabuntus are completely different Distros
[07:39] <feliciano> Kyral_Laptop, thank you...
[07:39] <Frogzoo_> BigFre: 90mins I spose
[07:39] <PleegWat> Hi, I'm having trouble accessing windows shares on my lan.
[07:39] <alix> hello. can anyone tell me how to upgrade to feisty form dvd-rom instead from internet
[07:39] <sipior> dxdemetriou: perhaps someone has solved this problem already
[07:39] <hilts50> C_Kode: thanks
[07:39] <Kyral_Laptop> bulltitan: and don't realize that they are the same base with a different paint job (basically)
[07:40] <PleegWat> Although, granted, I already had that problem under XP
[07:40] <BigFre> thanks - just though I was frooze...
[07:40] <C_Kode> hilts50: np
[07:40] <bulltitan> agree
[07:40] <SlimeyPete> orbisvicis: yeah, that's a bit low. Check that you're actually using hardware GL (I can't remember how, I'm afraid). Also, try switching off desktop effects / beryl if you're using them.
[07:40] <stefg> BigFre: possibly forever, if you took a live CD... small RAM machines are best installed with the alternate installer
[07:40] <bulltitan> i was asking for ubuntu studio for two reasons
[07:40] <Frogzoo_> BigFre: 198ram is a bit low, minimum for install is 256!
[07:40] <Kyral_Laptop> then make it a meta pack
[07:40] <infuzzer_> Can someone help me please with hardware? I use ATI Radeon Mobility (Laptop)
[07:41] <bulltitan> one it has everything installed from codecs to every media app and it has a nice dark theme :P
[07:41] <Kyral_Laptop> to me its almost as assine as Windows "Media Center"
[07:41] <dxdemetriou> sipior, I didn't find anything yet. I have a post on Forums, and If nobody answer it, I'll make a new threat for that. thanks
[07:41] <orbisvicis> SlimeyPete, dri is enabled but I am running glxgears with beryl in background
[07:41] <SlimeyPete> infuzzer_: so do I. What's wrong?
[07:41] <SlimeyPete> orbisvicis: try turning beryl off. See if that helps. Beryl caninterfere with GL applications.
[07:41] <BigFre> Frogzoo - an old pc I want to reclaim back to the unix world, should I try another distro
[07:41] <alix> anyone for a simple installation question pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase?
[07:42] <stefg> BigFre: xubuntu, alternat install is perfect for that
[07:42] <orbisvicis> wow ~7000 fps
[07:42] <SlimeyPete> orbisvicis: that's better ;)
[07:42] <lleberg> Hurray!
[07:42] <bulltitan> out to work, see u later
[07:42] <andar> hurray it boots again now.. thanks ohzie and kyral  ;)
[07:42] <lleberg> I solved my evil font-problem
[07:42] <alix> can anyone tell me how to upgrade to feisty form dvd-rom instead from internet
[07:43] <unimatrix9> so what will ubuntu users do when they get an docx file?....
[07:43] <orbisvicis> any reason that beryl on sli 6600 lags noticeably more that beryl on one 7900go though ?
[07:43] <BigFre> stefg - what the main difference in alternat
[07:43] <stefg> !alternate | BigFre
[07:43] <Neil-> hey hey.. I have a .asx file from bbc news, andf it wont play in ubuntu
[07:43] <ubotu> BigFre: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[07:43] <CheshireViking> lleberg, what was the problem, i'd love to know what I hadn't been able to fix
[07:43] <SlimeyPete> orbisvicis: no idea, tbh. At a guess, beryl isn't optimized for sli, or something
[07:43] <orbisvicis> wow now it 14,000 fps
[07:43] <unimatrix9> thats made in the opendocement file format of the new "windows office"
[07:43] <unimatrix9> wich is not so open after all
[07:43] <unimatrix9> :P
[07:44] <stefg> BigFre: so it uses less RAM during installation
[07:44] <orbisvicis> yeah probably
[07:44] <Neil-> how can i make a bbc news .asx file play in ubuntu, it crashes vlc, movie player, etc.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6678929.stm press watch here to try
[07:44] <Neil-> anyone@
[07:44] <Lov3> hi, when I boot the ubuntu live cd, even in safe graphics mode, it freezes my computer when it tries to load X. Is there anything I can do to stop that?
[07:44] <BigFre> thanks
[07:44] <Frogzoo_> BigFre: some people run fvwm on minimal machines - you could try that
[07:44] <alix> stefg: i already have feisty dvd
[07:44] <neztiti> guys can i instaal old kernal on feisty
[07:44] <C_Kode> orbisvicis: Driver issues?
[07:44] <unimatrix9> is there an hack to view or convert docx files?
[07:44] <PleegWat> Anyone got a good link for connecting to an existing windows filesharing network?
[07:44] <stefg> alix: waht ubuntu do you have installed now?

[07:45] <Frogzoo_> !samba > PleegWat
[07:45] <infuzzer_> can I use XGL effects on ATI mobility (laptop)? If yes, where can i get the drivers? thx
[07:45] <PleegWat> thanks
[07:45] <Th1ck> Hey there, somehow I kinda messed up my ubuntu install, the icons in the mainmenu is nowhere to be seen, and I cant enter the theme-manager without getting a error (Cant find default-theme, you probably dont have metacity installed, or gconf is configured wrong), any ideas what I might have done?
[07:45] <alix> stefg: i have tried to boot from dvd but i have xserver problem returned
[07:45] <unimatrix9> dajoru .docx is the new format of office 2007 you know who
[07:46] <SlimeyPete> infuzzer_: yes, you can. Install the ATI drivers from the Restricted Hardware Manager.
[07:46] <Neil-> hey.. how can i make a bbc news .asx file play in ubuntu, it crashes vlc, movie player, etc.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6678929.stm press watch here to try....
[07:46] <orbisvicis> C_Kode, sli beryl seems to lag with/without sli ... but dri is enabled ?
[07:46] <BigFre> quit
[07:46] <SlimeyPete> infuzzer_: if you get stuck, check out http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwiki.beryl-project.org%2Findex.php%2FInstall%2FUbuntu%2FEdgy%2FXGL&ei=yH1URpXIDo620wTxhd32DA&usg=AFrqEzcbDCxCjpl_JUjaO0QLtnPg-XCdJw&sig2=YXeCEBVZknit1vELIUQT_Q for info on how to install xgl.
[07:46] <infuzzer_> SlimeyPete: sorry, I'm new to Linux world. Where is it located?
[07:46] <dajoru> unimatrix9: i know gnnn. docx document are in fact folders containing the a xml file and the good old doc file
[07:46] <stefg> alix: i'm not familiar with the the DVD... the recommended way to upgrade offline is an alternate CD
[07:47] <sipior> SlimeyPete: now that's an impressive url
[07:47] <dogmeat> what's the name of the package that will allow me to run windows apps on linux?
[07:47] <CheshireViking> dogmeat, wine
[07:47] <neztiti> guys can i instaal old kernal on feisty
[07:47] <alix> stefg: scuse it is a cd not a dvd
[07:47] <CheshireViking> !wine > dogmeat
[07:47] <SlimeyPete> infuzzer_: it's in the System menu, at the top.
[07:47] <C_Kode> orbisvicis:  I was just guessing.  I have 7600GS with SLI support, but only have a single card and it runs fine.
[07:47] <SlimeyPete> sipior: it leads to the wrong page, too :/
[07:47] <unimatrix9> dajoru  that was in the beta version , the doc file has been removed
[07:47] <alix> stefg: 7.04 cd sorry
[07:47] <dajoru> dogmeat: there is a lot of project for that but you can try wine
[07:48] <alix> stefg: how can i do so
[07:48] <orbisvicis> maybe the later models have better extensions
[07:48] <Neil-> +
[07:48] <wkdown> hello all; I am trying to set up a LAMP server in Ubuntu on an offline machine.  When I go to configure Apache (or PHP or Bluefish) I am being told I have no C compiler, but I checked and of course I have cc and gcc
[07:48] <Neil-> hey.. how can i make a bbc news .asx file play in ubuntu, it crashes vlc, movie player, etc.. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6678929.stm press watch here to try....
[07:48] <stefg> alix: so the alternate CD has the packages on disk, while the Live-CD is one big image, which can't be used for updating offline
[07:48] <wkdown> am I missing something?
[07:48] <SlimeyPete> infuzzer_: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Feisty_with_XGL
[07:48] <rx_> hi
[07:48] <unimatrix9> the fast hack is now : rename the document.xml to document.html and ope with firefox, you then get the text only
[07:49] <unimatrix9> ( after its uncompressed afcause
[07:49] <unimatrix9> :)
[07:49] <dogmeat> i dont see wine listed
[07:49] <orbisvicis> yeah on 7900go w/ beryl fps = 13000 fps
[07:49] <dogmeat> i have universe repo selected in synaptic
[07:49] <alix> stefg: ok, so i understand that i must download the alternative cd one but where can i found it
[07:49] <zak_> something's wrong with my swap whereby i have to do a manual "sudo swapon /dev/..." each time i boot... i'm not sure why this is happening, and i've tried mkswap to clean it up... it worked fine until a few weeks ago
[07:49] <zak_> any ideas?
[07:49] <stefg> !download | alix
[07:49] <ubotu> alix: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[07:50] <unimatrix9> is there an hack to view or convert docx files? , any tips are welcome
[07:50] <wkdown> ...and I cant hook the laptop up to the net because its old as the hills and I dont have a PCMCIA card
[07:50] <alix> stefg, ubotu: thanks
[07:50] <Lunderhage> Grub error 25
[07:50] <infuzzer_> SlimeyPete: thanks, but you told me that i need to do something in the hardware manager. What exactly?
[07:50] <orbisvicis> thats very weird : without beryl glxgears dropped down to 2000 fps
[07:50] <Azrael---BRB> glxgears DROPPED without beryl?
[07:50] <Azrael---BRB> That is odd.
[07:50] <rx_> im having a huge problem here. im using a high res laptop and i cant make firefox to use my dpi setting. i tried almost everything. the about:config thing, xorg.conf DisplaySize, startx -dpi, Xft.dpi, etc. im running feisty fawn. i also tried with firefox from moz.org. also tried with firefox 1.5 to make sure its not a problem witb the 2.0 serie
[07:50] <orbisvicis> im going to look at the xorg.conf
[07:51] <diablos_raven> DBO you there
[07:51] <SlimeyPete> infuzzer_: install the ATI drivers. You need to use the official ATI ones before you can use the 3d effects.
[07:51] <Neil-> how do u play .asx files in ubuntu?
[07:51] <Neil-> they crash gxine/vlc for me
[07:51] <dajoru> dogmeat: http://www.winehq.org/
[07:51] <Azrael---BRB> rx_: You can't make FF obey DPI settings.
[07:51] <SlimeyPete> infuzzer_: if the hardware manager doesn't pick them up, load Synaptic (from the same System menu), enable "multiverse" and "universe" in the Synaptic preferences, hit Reload and then install the fglrx drivers.
[07:52] <SlimeyPete> (which are the official ATI drivers)
[07:52] <rx_> Azreal, why???
[07:52] <wkdown> hello all; I am trying to set up a LAMP server in Ubuntu on an offline machine.  When I go to configure Apache (or PHP or Bluefish) I am being told I have no C compiler, but I checked and of course I have cc and gcc
[07:52] <rx_> this is the dumbest shit ever then
[07:52] <LjL> !language
[07:52] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:53] <rx_> sorry
[07:53] <rx_> but im almost blind with these little fonts
[07:53] <unimatrix9> this new format will become an stumble block for a while....docx ( ooxml )
[07:53] <PriceChild> rx_, ctrl+scrollwheel makes fonts bigger?
[07:53] <wkdown> rx_, can you set your default browser font to be bigger?
[07:53] <kanzie> I have two computers both running Feasty and wish to share files between them... what is the easiest way to do this?
[07:53] <SlimeyPete> firefox's interface is a law unto itself.
[07:53] <rob_> hey folks dues Ubuntu 7.04 have WebMin by default?
[07:53] <SlimeyPete> rob_: no
[07:53] <rob_> or should I download WebMin from Wbemion.com?
[07:53] <wkdown> kanzie, a jumpdrive :P
[07:54] <SlimeyPete> rob_: it's not even available in the repos
[07:54] <rob_> ok
[07:54] <lacrymology> how do I manually configure the locales?
[07:54] <stefg> rx_: you mean the UI-Font or the Content in the window?
[07:54] <rx_> wkd, that doesnt work unless the site is really basic (no css, etc)
[07:54] <rx_> content of the window
[07:54] <ice-11> how can I add a conditional statement to my /etc/network/interfaces file?  for example, I want to add a property "wireless_essid Mutant" if $MODE == start
[07:54] <wkdown> rx_, if I remember right, Firefox can be forced to override even CSS
[07:54] <rx_> the ui is owned by gnome font setting and its alright
[07:54] <rob_> also I installed NdisWrapper and pointed it to the right .inf driver file (using the Gnome GUI)
[07:54] <rob_> but it doe snot show any driver installed
[07:55] <stefg> rx_: ctrl -wheel
[07:55] <rx_> i need to change the dpi setting
[07:55] <makki> how can i know my ubuntu versoin?
[07:55] <rob_> when I try to do it agin it says river already installed
[07:55] <rx_> ctrl-wheel is annoying
[07:55] <rx_> i have to redo it for each tab
[07:55] <magnetron> makki: lsb_release -r
[07:55] <stefg> rx_: so set a larger font (18 instaed of 16)
[07:55] <rx_> i tried that
[07:56] <rx_> some site override that
[07:56] <stefg> rx_: and there's tons of threads on this issue in the mozilla-forums.
[07:56] <rx_> (most) sites
[07:56] <rx_> i read all these threads
[07:56] <rx_> :|
[07:56] <waasdfdf> server irc.netshock.st
[07:56] <makki> good but i want to know is it dapper or fiesty?
[07:56] <rx_> looks like im outta luck
[07:57] <stefg> rx_: FF2.0 has no more dpi-setting... xul (mozilla-toolkit) reads it from the X-settings. no way to change it
[07:58] <rx_> well
[07:58] <stefg> rx_: or change the dpi for your screen altogether
[07:58] <rx_> i did the set it in it
[07:58] <rx_> it=xorg
[07:58] <rx_> changed DisplaySize, tried with startx -dpi..
[07:58] <CheshireViking> makki, if lsb_release -r says 7.04, its feisty
[07:58] <Kaelten> anyone familar with logrotate?
[07:58] <rob_> how do I install MySQL / Apache / PHP on Ubuntu 7 desktop?
[07:58] <wkdown> I cant get Ubuntu (Dapper) to recognize I have cc and gcc when I try to ./configure on Apache ... any ideas?
[07:58] <cbs> whats the command to stop xserver?
[07:59] <wkdown> rob_, Google "LAMP ubuntu" and you'll get all the apt-get commands
[07:59] <dyrne> cbs: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop   then start or restart
[07:59] <Kaelten> I'm wondering what can I expect if I use both daily and size?
[07:59] <cbs> ty
[07:59] <dajoru> wkdown: check your PATH... echo $PATH
[07:59] <stamen> hi
[08:00] <stamen> I wan't to ask somthuing
[08:00] <wkdown> but of course /usr/bin is there
[08:00] <makki> it show only version 6.10
[08:00] <dajoru> wkdown: whereis gcc
[08:00] <stefg> rx_: in gnome there's a control-box in the font-applet. this overrides the -dpi argument for X
[08:00] <stamen> if I wan't to remove my kde from kubuntu, can I make it ubuntu aftr installing gnome
[08:00] <wkdown> isnt it there? in /usr/bin?
[08:00] <LordTureis> rx_: have you tried changing layout.css.dpi in about:config?
[08:00] <stamen> or I must make new clean instalation
[08:00] <body> #fluxbox
[08:00] <dajoru> wkdown: well check with: whereis gcc
[08:01] <Fivetwentysix> I need help
[08:01] <Fivetwentysix> I'm desperately trying to get my gnome settings manager to work
[08:01] <clitsey> is there anyway i can get feisty to run beryl with the ATI drivers?
[08:01] <Fivetwentysix> and i ended up deleting lots of packages
[08:01] <Fivetwentysix> Now I can't see any of my panels
[08:01] <Fivetwentysix> What do i do?
[08:01] <rob_> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-lamp does not work
[08:01] <rob_> also the Gone/GUI package installer has no MySQL/Apache etc?
[08:01] <wkdown> ok, gotta wait for dinosaur to wake up ... maybe something just goofed on install
[08:01] <cbs> dyrne: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop does nothing
[08:01] <Kaelten> I'm wondering what would happen if I set daily and a size in log rotate's config
[08:01] <dyrne> cbs: you on kubuntu?
[08:02] <LordTureis> Fivetwentysix: have you tried Alt+F2 and type in 'killall gnome-panel' ?
[08:02] <dyrne> heh guess it worked
[08:02] <stefg> Fivetwentysix: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop will at least bring you back to normal
[08:02] <Fivetwentysix> OK
[08:02] <Fivetwentysix> Right now i typed sudo apt-get install gnome
[08:02] <dajoru> wkdown: what does that mean your problem is solved?
[08:02] <Fivetwentysix> and its downloading files
[08:03] <melman101> Hey all.
[08:03] <stefg> Fivetwentysix: that will install a lot of stuff that you probably don't want
[08:03] <spudz> sup
[08:03] <melman101> I am sure this is really easy, but anyone know how to get the blank cd dialog to stop popping up. I always hit ignore. LoL
[08:04] <Fivetwentysix> OK
[08:04] <rob_> folks: I have installed the *desktop* edition of Fiesty -- just need LAMP now.. any help? all guides/helpfile stalk about installing lamp on a *Server* version of Feisty....
[08:04] <LordTureis> melman101: system > pref > removable drive and media > uncheck "burn a cd ..."
[08:04] <melman101> LordTureis: Thanks awesome, just found that. Thanks so much
[08:05] <Lunar_Lamp> rob_, shouldn't be any different - the same packages will be needed, you;ll just have more installed than you need.
[08:05] <LjL> !lamp > rob_    (rob_, see the private message from Ubotu) | isn't centered on server edition.
[08:05] <Fivetwentysix> rob_ just install apache php then install mysql
[08:05] <LjL> rob_: "LAMP" is nothing magic, it just means installing Apache, MySQL and Postgres on a Linux system.
[08:05] <wkdown> dajoru, seems that way ... gcc is in /usr/lib which isnt in my path .. whats the file to change paths again?
[08:05] <LjL> rob_: err, and PHP :P
[08:06] <rob_> aaj
[08:06] <wkdown> LjL, MySQL AND PostGRE? lol
[08:06] <rob_> I thought LAMP was some meta package
[08:06] <rob_> so: sudo apt-get install apache2 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 mysql-server
[08:06] <rob_> thats it!
[08:06] <LjL> wkdown: gcc isn't in /usr/lib.
[08:06] <wkdown> LAMP = Linux Apache MySQL PHP
[08:06] <rx_> i did it all
[08:06] <wkdown> LjL, mine is lol
[08:07] <rob_> wkdown: I know.. but I thought it was some metapackage name for APT-GET
[08:07] <LjL> wkdown: i doubt it. what's the output of  apt-cache policy gcc | grep Installed  ?
[08:07] <rx_> i set the correct dpi in gnome, xorg.conf, startx -dpi, xft.dpi, about:config thing
[08:07] <rx_> all
[08:07] <dajoru> wkdown: you can change your ~/.bashrc by adding export PATH=/usr/lib:$PATH
[08:07] <wkdown> can't use apt ... this comp is offline
[08:07] <wkdown> dajoru, .bashrc ... thats it
[08:08] <dajoru> yes then you need to source it
[08:08] <LjL> dajoru: except there's no reason on earth why the GCC user-callable executable should be in /usr/lib...
[08:08] <dajoru> on the prompt source ~/.bashrc
[08:08] <LjL> wkdown, you can run that command even with no networking.
[08:08] <GoRk60> hello :)
[08:08] <dajoru> LjL: that's right but who care
[08:08] <LjL> dajoru: are you kidding?
[08:09] <rob_> ok thanks folks
[08:09] <tomer> hello... i am looking for a channel that can help me with dual nic card
[08:09] <GoRk60> ya t'il des franais ici ?
[08:09] <rob_> I have most stuff running
[08:09] <rob_> all I need to fo is get ndiswrapper to woprk
[08:09] <LjL> dajoru: do you think having GCC in the wrong place in /usr is a small unimportant thing...?
[08:09] <rob_> anybody here that can help?
[08:09] <LjL> wkdown, how have you installed GCC?

[08:11] <mrwizrd> can anyone help me? I've installed beryl on ubuntu feisty and xgl starts fine, but as soon as i load beryl-manager my desktop goes white
[08:11] <wkdown> LjL, its in the initial Ubuntu install
[08:11] <dajoru> LjL: AH you see.....
[08:11] <belfegor> thanks LjL
[08:11] <LjL> wkdown, uhm, no it isn't (not if you installed the normal Desktop version at any rate). no compiler is installed by default.

[08:12] <wkdown> Synaptic Package Manager shows cc and gcc (among others) installed ... and whereis shows it too
[08:12] <illriginal> How do I update my Firefox browser?
[08:12] <wkdown> LjL, above ^^
[08:12] <gnask> Hi, i think i managed to "lock" all my accounts, i cant be "sudo" on them anymore. I spammed "sudo beep" :).. Is there anyway to restore them?
[08:12] <Fivetwentysix> Unable to start the settings manager 'gnome-settings-daemon'.
[08:12] <Fivetwentysix> Without the GNOME settings manager running, some preferences may not take effect. This could indicate a problem with Bonobo, or a non-GNOME (e.g. KDE) settings manager may already be active and conflicting with the GNOME settings manager.
[08:12] <Fivetwentysix> What do i do about this problem?
[08:12] <LjL> wkdown: well, then if they really are installed, there's something quite wrong, because "whereis gcc" should *definitely* give "/usr/bin/gcc"
[08:13] <Fivetwentysix> I'm trying to install a theme
[08:13] <dajoru> wkdown: so is it working or not now?
[08:13] <tomer> how do i mount an iso into /cdrom
[08:13] <tomer> ?
[08:13] <LjL> wkdown: what about the output of  dpkg -L gcc | grep bin  ? does it show anything?

[08:13] <PurpZeY> tomer: You trying to burn an ISO, or just read an iso as cd?

[08:13] <wkdown> LjL, I thought it'd be there too
[08:13] <PurpZeY> What he siad.
[08:14] <tomer> just read as the cd.
[08:14] <wkdown> LjL, lemme check
[08:14] <LjL> wkdown: well, whatever the reason why it's not there is, the right solution is *not* to change your path. besides, /usr/lib/gcc isn't even a file, it's a directory.
[08:14] <tomer> wow that ubotu actually answers the question
[08:14] <tomer> cool
[08:15] <Fivetwentysix> Anyone got a solution to my problem?
[08:15] <dajoru> LjL: besides, /usr/lib/gcc isn't even a file, it's a directory. ???? what are you saying?
