[12:01] <cables> Hey, does anyone know if Ubuntu's been updated for daylight savings time?
[12:01] <riqz> guys whts the name of a good light mp3 player.. with gui pls
[12:01] <DPic> can somebody who knows how to install java runtime environment please send me a private message
[12:01] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Can't afford better stuff?
[12:01] <arooni> when i plug in my headphones to my laptop, i *still* get audio output out of the builtin speakers.... is there a way around this?
[12:01] <eugman> riqz, xxms
[12:01] <soundray> !tr | DiSRupT0r
[12:01] <ubotu> DiSRupT0r: Turk ubuntu kullanicilari, turkce yardim yada geyik icin #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde.
[12:01] <HolyGoat> riqz: xmms
[12:01] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Unfortunately not atm. I figured Ubuntu would be faster than Windows XP
[12:01] <soundray> cables: yes
[12:02] <riqz> would sudo apt-get install xmms do the trick
[12:02] <crdlb> HolyGoat, audacious is a better xmms
[12:02] <crdlb> imho
[12:02] <DiSRupT0r> tty
[12:02] <cables> soundray, what package was updated for that to work?
[12:02] <DiSRupT0r> man
[12:02] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Well it depends on what you do/run/configure to some extent.
[12:02] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Is there a significant difference in speed with 1280x1024 and 1024x768? or does resolution not really matter
[12:02] <soundray> magnushc: it comes in a ubuntu package. Note ubotu's private message:
[12:02] <mnikic> hello people, i am new here on this server ( undernet stinks )
[12:02] <truvisionary> how would I install compiz?
[12:02] <soundray> !software > magnushc
[12:02] <HolyGoat> crdlb: I can't recall trying it. What makes it better?
[12:02] <soundray> cables: libc6
[12:02] <cables> !compiz | truvisionary
[12:02] <ubotu> truvisionary: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - See http://tinyurl.com/pw5ez for Kubuntu systems - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:02] <cables> soundray, thanks.
[12:03] <riqz> guys would i install xmms by just typing sudo apt-get install xmms?
[12:03] <cables> soundray, I guess it could just be stuck in any package that needs updating, right?
[12:03] <HolyGoat> Exershio: That shouldn't matter much. If the monitor is capable of handling it with a decent refresh rate, that is.
[12:03] <crdlb> HolyGoat, one plus is that it's gtk2
[12:03] <superkirbyartist> !av
[12:03] <soundray> cables: no
[12:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about av - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:03] <superkirbyartist> !clamav
[12:03] <ubotu> clamav: antivirus scanner for Unix. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.88.4-1ubuntu2.1 (edgy), package size 65 kB, installed size 208 kB
[12:03] <Exershio> HolyGoat: I have the refresh rate on 60, I dunno what refresh rates are lol
[12:03] <cables> soundray, why libc then?
[12:03] <HolyGoat> riqz: yep
[12:03] <riqz> holygoat : ty
[12:03] <Jordan_U> Exershio, If Ubuntu is running slower than XP for you I would first check your GPU drivers, then try Xubuntu
[12:03] <soundray> cables: timezone management is traditionally a part of libc6
[12:03] <DPic> i'm new to linux and i need to install java runtime environment
[12:03] <cables> soundray, got it
[12:03] <DPic> can somebody help me?
[12:03] <riqz> exershio maybe u didnt install drivers correctly
[12:04] <DiSRupT0r> who speak very well truk plz?
[12:04] <cables> DPic, sure.
[12:04] <soundray> !java > DPic, read the msg from ubotu pls
[12:04] <Exershio> riqz: I dunno how to install any drivers on here, I'm totally new to this
[12:04] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Simply put, it's the rate at which your monitor can refresh the screen. 60 is quite low.
[12:04] <Jordan_U> superkirbyartist, Just install the package "clamav" and run "clamav /"
[12:04] <boofar> hi, busy channel, can someone recommend a channel to discuss RAID setup, thanks.
[12:04] <cables> DPic, if Ubotu's message doesn't help, come back here and ask me.
[12:04] <Exershio> riqz: I have integrated intel video, so I dunno what to download
[12:04] <riqz> exershio: thats the proble then
[12:04] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Should I try setting it higher?
[12:04] <Jrabbit> ok
[12:04] <progek> hi room, im using kubuntu (used ubuntu for a long time too) and have a question about nvidia drivers. Kubuntu channel does not respond so I was hoping someone here can help me
[12:04] <Jordan_U> boofar, Harware RAID or software RAID?
[12:04] <aixing_> !java > aixing
[12:04] <Jrabbit> I have issues getting X to use xorg.conf
[12:04] <riqz> exershio: what gfx card u got?
[12:04] <HolyGoat> Exershio: You can notice it if the screen appears to shake a tiny bit which can give you a bad headache.
[12:04] <cables> progek, go ahead.
[12:05] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Only if your monitor supports it.
[12:05] <riqz> exershio: well what drivers do u have for it on windows
[12:05] <cables> progek, graphics drivers don't care what desktop environment you use
[12:05] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, Why do you think it's not using xorg.conf?
[12:05] <boofar> Jordan_U, software raid. i have RAID 5 set up with 3 drives and am getting 32mb/second write speed (using dd benchmarking)
[12:05] <Exershio> riqz: I'm not sure exactly, it was Intel Extreme Graphics or something of the sort
[12:05] <riqz> exershio gimme  a sec
[12:05] <Exershio> HolyGoat: In my resolution changer thing, it only has 60 available for refresh rate XD Does that mean it doesn't support anything else?
[12:05] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: I updated it and did a X restart, a reboot and no luck
[12:05] <aixing_> !java > aixing_
[12:05] <Exershio> riqz: okay
[12:06] <mx-zoom> how can I make ipod be /dev/ipod instead of /dev/sd* . All I can do at the moment is link /dev/sd* to /dev/ipod , but the ipod still uses /dev/sd* too
[12:06] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, What did you update and what do you mean by "no luck" ?
[12:06] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: The added res. isn't appering as my GDM (Its 1st on the list) or in the options in Ubuntu)
[12:06] <riqz> exershio:  go to this link http://absolutebeginner.wordpress.com/2006/07/26/installing-intel-815852855-graphics-controller-drivers-on-ubuntu-debian/
[12:06] <crdlb> mx-zoom, you need to make a custom udev rule
[12:06] <progek> cables, thanks, well I have an nvidia card and I installed nvidia-glx then ran nvidia-xconfig, after that glxinfo states my direct rendering is on but I have terrible lag with 3d apps (unlike when I ran ubuntu) and control+alt backspace does not work anymore. Any ideas? usname -r shows generic kernel, I wonder if this has anything to do with it?
[12:06] <whieimhere> Hi there is a progra that allows you to burn your downloaded deb files to a CD and use that as a CD repo does anyone know its name?
[12:06] <amx> any idea why my apt-get suddenly cannot connect to archive.ubuntu.com, or security.ubuntu.com?
[12:06] <Exershio> riqz: Okay, I'll check that out, thanks
[12:06] <HolyGoat> Exershio: It still depends. The maximum refresh rate is in the technical specs for your monitor. You can configure your monitor in /etc/X11/xorg.conf after looking up the specs, chances are that you can run at a higher refresh rate.
[12:06] <ledbettj> Does anyone know anything about setting up my IDE DVDRW drive using the ide-cd module so that 1) cdrecord -scanbus shows it and 2) I can burn something besides a coaster? :)
[12:07] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, Ahh, then you probably don't have the correct GFX drivers installed, what kind of card do you have?
[12:07] <amx> I can ping those, or connect to them with w3m fine
[12:07] <HolyGoat> Exershio: That said, it won't make your system any faster. It'll just be easier on the eyes.
[12:07] <cables> progek, I don't know why that would happen...
[12:07] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: That it doesn't display in  1280 x 1024 after adding "1280x1024" in the papporitrate spaces
[12:07] <Exershio> HolyGoat: ah, okay, I'll check into that then
[12:07] <mx-zoom> crdlb: I have searched everywhere and all I found is a way to make udev link the ipod device to /de/ipod. but it will still be /dev/sd* too
[12:07] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: ATI Radon x300 on Vesa
[12:07] <riqz> YESSSSSS! i can see all my movies on linux
[12:07] <Exershio> HolyGoat: I just don't want to accidentally screw my monitor settings up and render my system unusable
[12:07] <whieimhere> NM I found it its called APTonCD
[12:08] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Good thinking, because that stuff is risky.
[12:08] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, VESA does not support those Resolutions, install fglrx
[12:08] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: fgrlx was fucking up my system before
[12:08] <progek> anyone know if generic kernel works ok with nvidia drivers?
[12:08] <arooni> is there a way of sounding speaker volume separately then headphone volume?
[12:08] <crdlb> mx-zoom, I don't know that you can change that, what's the harm in having the sd* too?
[12:08] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: I had a crash of X11
[12:08] <soundray> progek: of course it does
[12:08] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, VESA does not support those resolutions, you can also try the "ati" driver
[12:08] <soundray> arooni: only if your hardware supports that
[12:09] <HolyGoat> Exershio: You must be a student or something if you can't afford a better PC? :)
[12:09] <arooni> well how would i do that if i could
[12:09] <arooni> soundray: i mean
[12:09] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: ATIs the worst one do you even have an ATI card?
[12:09] <riqz> is BMP better than xmms?
[12:09] <Exershio> HolyGoat: yep, I'm only 15 and can't get a job yet lol
[12:09] <progek> soundray, thanks, maybe you can help. Im trying to install nvidia drivers in kubuntu. After installing nvidia-glx and running nvidia-xconfig control+alt+backspace stops working and I still have lag in 3d apps (direct rendering states its on in glxinfo however)
[12:09] <TheVault> Whats the command to extract a the contents of a exe file?
[12:09] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, Yes, I do.
[12:09] <mx-zoom> crdlb: because I have an usb that uses to be sdb and I set it in fstab. if I don't have the disc pluged in, ipod takes sdb and I get some errors because fstab tries to mount it with the wrong settings
[12:09] <Jrabbit> Riqz: depends
[12:09] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Aha, ok. Well it's good to start early with Linux.
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Riqz: if its bmpx yes :p
[12:10] <progek> when I ran ubuntu, I never had lag
[12:10] <crdlb> mx-zoom, then make a custom run for it too
[12:10] <riqz> jrabbit: well i have BMP and im also installing xmms
[12:10] <soundray> arooni: open gnome volume control, see if you have separate sliders. You may have to Edit-Preferences
[12:10] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Yeah, I was fed up with Windows, and I heard Ubuntu was the easiest to start with
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Riqz: BMP is a fork of XMMS
[12:10] <crdlb> mx-zoom, all usb devices had a unique vendor and device id
[12:10] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, ATI has really crappy drivers for Linux, there is usually no way around it :(
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Riqz: No need to really
[12:10] <crdlb> riqz, audacious is my favorite
[12:10] <crdlb> also a XMMS clone
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: I know
[12:10] <Exershio> HolyGoat: How can I check my maximum refresh rate with 1280x1024?
[12:10] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: This is my 3rd install of ubuntu
[12:10] <joshjosh> Exershio: Easiest? Heh. Nope. But it's worth it once you get it set up the way you want. You'll learn more about computer using ubuntu for a month than you have using windows for years.
[12:10] <Exershio> HolyGoat: My monitor is a Compaw MV720
[12:11] <TheVault> Whats the command to extract all the contents of a exe file? I am trying to get this driver outta it
[12:11] <Exershio> Compaq*
[12:11] <mx-zoom> crdlb: probably will have to do that
[12:11] <Jrabbit> Jordan_U: Its a new issue every new version
[12:11] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Probably, I suppose I can't really relate to how someone who just starts using Linux sees it. I've been using Linux since around 1997
[12:11] <joshjosh> thevault:sudo unzip -a i think
[12:11] <crdlb> TheVault, cabextract ?
[12:11] <boofar> wow, this channel needs breakouts.. good luck all
[12:11] <eugman> Anyone know of a good program to make a hex grid I can print out?
[12:11] <riqz> ill try both and see which one i like best
[12:11] <TheVault> lemme try both of ur guys methods
[12:11] <ax3> anyone have a link for upcoming changes in the new Ubuntu version?
[12:11] <Jordan_U> TheVault, fwcutter?
[12:11] <ax3> err "feisty fawn"
[12:11] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Hah, that's a long time. I've been using Windows for 6 years now, and it's annoying me to death
[12:12] <ax3> just wanna read up on new version and features
[12:12] <soundray> ax3: read the topic in #ubuntu+1
[12:12] <joshjosh> what's the average age of ubuntu users i wonder?
[12:12] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Your specs should give you your refresh rates and resolutions. Once you have those configured in xorg.conf, you can use GUI tools to configure your resolution and refresh rate.
[12:12] <ledbettj> does the ide-cd module support cd burning, or do I need to use ide-scsi instead?
[12:12] <agd5f> Is it possible to boot an install disc from grub?
[12:12] <giughe> yo can anyone help me to setup my dual monitors?
[12:13] <ax3> soundray: cool didn't know that channel existed :)
[12:13] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Alright. I'm gonna look up my monitor on the net and see if I can find any info on it =p
[12:13] <Jordan_U> agd5f, AFIK not unless it is a GRUB floppy.
[12:13] <HolyGoat> Exershio: You need the specs to fill out the HorizSync and VertRefresh configs in xorg.conf
[12:13] <Jordan_U> agd5f, Why?
[12:13] <arooni> i mean... why does my laptop speaker produce sound when i put in headphones
[12:13] <HolyGoat> So that's what you want to be looking for.
[12:13] <whieimhere> Is there a tutorial about converting fla files to say AVi or MPEG (not sure what ones better or smaller)
[12:13] <arooni> how can if ix this
[12:13] <crdlb> whieimhere, use mencoder
[12:14] <joshjosh> whieimhere: you get your live cd working?
[12:14] <Jordan_U> arooni, You can mute the channel using alsamixer
[12:14] <Exershio> HolyGoat: I don't really know what that means or what to do. I've edited xorg.conf before to try and get a custom resolution (1152x864) but it didn't help
[12:14] <eugman> agd5f, do you mean the computer doesn't recognize the cd as a boot option or is something else the problem?
[12:14] <agd5f> Jordan_U: The machine I want to install on has no external media.  only a HD.
[12:14] <HolyGoat> Exershio: Can't help you much further though, I'm off to sleep (just past midnight here). Have fun using Linux.
[12:14] <whieimhere> joshjosh nope not yet
[12:14] <TheVault> nope, none of those command extracts the files from a exe
[12:14] <Exershio> HolyGoat: Okay, thanks for all the help. Good night
[12:14] <eugman> oh
[12:14] <TheVault> Does anybody else know how?
[12:14] <whieimhere> joshjosh I managed to get enlightenment 17 to compile and install
[12:14] <arooni> Jordan_U: i dont see a way to turn up headphone... only "front'
[12:14] <Jordan_U> agd5f, I would install a base CLI system to an HD then Just swap it into the machine
[12:15] <agd5f> Jordan_U: yeah, I did that orginially, but I don't feel like ripping it apart to get the drive out again
[12:15] <TheVault> Anybody know the command to get the files out of a exe file?
[12:15] <Jordan_U> agd5f, You can install from a thumb drive
[12:16] <Jordan_U> TheVault, For what purpose?
[12:16] <agd5f> Jordan_U: nope, machine boots from harddrive only
[12:16] <joshjosh> thevault: you try sudo unzip -a?
[12:16] <soundray> TheVault: there is no single command that does that, and it is not necessarily possible
[12:16] <agd5f> it's an old laptop
[12:16] <Msword> im back!
[12:16] <Jrabbit> Question, does an ATI card work with AIGX?
[12:16] <TheVault> Jordan_U: To get a driver out
[12:16] <Jordan_U> agd5f, Netboot?
[12:16] <TheVault> joshjosh: will try now
[12:16] <crdlb> Jrabbit, less than 9600 yes
[12:16] <p47> how can I unistall kiba dock complete ? I have problems and I need to reinstall like new.
[12:16] <Msword> who was helping me? I can't remember
[12:16] <soundray> TheVault: you may have to run it with wine
[12:16] <agd5f> Jordan_U: wifi only
[12:16] <Jordan_U> TheVault, For wireless? NDIS wrapper or broadcom?
[12:16] <joshjosh> p47: sudo apt-get remove kiba-dock
[12:16] <Jrabbit> crdlb:  thanks
[12:17] <TheVault> Jordan_U: Yeah
[12:17] <MasterRa2> alright.. where can i go for feisty bug reports and/or help?
[12:17] <joshjosh> p47: maybe go through synapitic and uninstall that way and put mark for complete removal
[12:17] <p47> joshjosh: yes, but when I install gain I can't see kiba dock
[12:17] <TheVault> joshjosh: That command don't work btw
[12:17] <joshjosh> materra2: system: port a problem
[12:17] <Jordan_U> MasterRa2, launchpad and #ubuntu+1
[12:17] <snoogie> evening
[12:17] <agd5f> I guess grub won't help anyway... it can't see USB...
[12:17] <joshjosh> thevault: hmm...what are you downloading? r140747.exe?
[12:17] <Jrabbit> crdlb:  Fglrx and AIGLX works with ATI and beryl?
[12:17] <TheVault> joshjosh: No
[12:18] <MasterRa2> i'm trying to run from a drive other than hda (in this case, hdd1 is my root partition, hdd3 is my /home, hdd2 is swap..) but after the initial install and then a reboot, it won't boot cuz it can't find hdd1! (it drops me to a busyboxy terminal where i can see /dev/hdd but not /dev/hdd1!)
[12:18] <nrdb> Hi, I am using ubuntu 6.06 LTS with the 2.6.15-28-686 kernel, I am wondering why there hasn't been a vmware-player-kernel-meodules package yet for this kernel ? :( its been some time since the kernel was updated.
[12:18] <snoogie> Did someone know the name of developper channel ?
[12:18] <agd5f> maybe i could copy the cd to a partition and use grub to boot that
[12:18] <Msword> riqz
[12:18] <Jordan_U> Jrabbit, No, AIGLX does not work with fglrx, only "ati"
[12:18] <Msword> you still here?
[12:18] <whieimhere> Is there a way to get GAIM to play a sound if someone used my nick in the chat?
[12:18] <soundray> snoogie: #ubuntu-devel
[12:18] <TheVault> Trying to extract the contents of the exe file I downloaded here: http://www.gigafast.com/products/product_drivers/WF748-UI_drivers.htm , the one that has a b in the name
[12:18] <Jordan_U> snoogie, #ubuntu-devel

[12:18] <crdlb> Jrabbit, you have to use the open source radeon driver which only supports (<=9600 stably) to use AIGLX
[12:18] <TheVault> if it makes anymore sense, trying to install a Gigafast USB Adapter
[12:19] <p47> I can't see kiba dock, please help me !
[12:19] <Jrabbit> crdlb: Uh ok
[12:19] <Msword> ok guys
[12:19] <mEck0> I want to buy a tv-card (have analog cable-tv for the moment, but want digital-tv support on the card too), but don't know which I should buy :S Is the usb-ones good? It would be a plus because I could then use it for my laptop too. And yes, Linuxsupport would be nice too.
[12:19] <joshjosh> thevault: you could install it in a windows systenm, then email the files to yourself
[12:19] <just22> hi, may u help me please?
[12:19] <Msword> i got this problem installing: File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it. Cluster size is 2k(1k expected) Number of clusters is 20017(39957 expected) Size of FATs is 79 sectors(157 expected)
[12:19] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: if you went to the trouble of going to settings  sound you'd have found it
[12:19] <joshjosh> p347: you got beryl or compix up/
[12:19] <Msword> i'm trying to dual boot
[12:19] <Msword> with xp
[12:19] <Jordan_U> TheVault, Are you even sure your card is not supported by native Linux drivers?
[12:19] <whieimhere> mx-zoom I did and I turned it up and i have audio
[12:20] <TheVault> joshjosh: I could but i found this tutorial on setting up ndiswrapper and it gave a command to extract a exe file
[12:20] <Sk8aElf> anybody wise in the ways of ubuntu lamp server  who could help me out with a few problems/questions     starting with how to set up multiple domain hosting thru webmin
[12:20] <whieimhere> mx-zoom but when you just chatted me I did not get a sound
[12:20] <TheVault> Jordan_U: Yeah it is
[12:20] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: then that's it. should work
[12:20] <lilrayray> hi all, how do you configure your netwrok adapter (like choosing SSID) from the terminal or commandline?
[12:20] <eck> !webmin
[12:20] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[12:20] <soundray> mEck0: it's a lottery -- most boxes don't say what chipset the TV card in it has. Most dealers don't know, either
[12:20] <just22> i use compiz.. everything works.. the only one shity thing is that my shell is completely white....
[12:20] <Jordan_U> TheVault, Then why are you trying to use windows drivers?
[12:20] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: are you using your soundcard for anything else? music, etc
[12:20] <soundray> !ohmy | just22
[12:20] <ubotu> just22: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[12:20] <Msword> someone help me?
[12:20] <TheVault> Cause thats what this tutorial is telling me to do
[12:20] <whieimhere> mz-zoom I am not playing anything at all

[12:21] <soundray> mEck0: having said that, Hauppauge devices tend to work, and so do Technotrend ones.
[12:21] <mEck0> soundray, okey, hmm, but can any of you recommend any? someone must have used tv-cards here? under linux too?

[12:21] <whieimhere> mx-zoom please say my name now
[12:21] <eck> Sk8aElf: skip webmin and read the apache docs, they are not too bad
[12:21] <mEck0> soulcatcher_, okey, because I have looked some at hauppage's cards
[12:22] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: :)
[12:22] <whieimhere> nope still no sound
[12:22] <soundray> mEck0: I have a dedicated machine with Technotrend DVB cards (one terrestrial, one satellite) running debian.
[12:22] <whieimhere> I know that in the pref window I can test it and it works
[12:22] <nickwebcouk> Aaarrghh.. I hate Broadcom.

[12:22] <Msword> I'm trying to dual boot linux and windows, i was just installing linux and i got this error: File system doesn't have expected sizes for windows to like it. Cluster size is 2k(1k expected) Number of clusters is 20017(39957 expected) Size of FATs is 79 sectors(157 expected)
[12:22] <quaal__> with this bug reporting tool does it automatically send it or do i need to save it to a txt file
[12:22] <quaal__> "bug buddy"
[12:22] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: I remember it to have worked in my ubuntu box.
[12:23] <Sk8aElf> eck: there a better web admin interface instead of using webmin ?
[12:23] <arooni> how can i 'save' a list of commands i type frequently, so i dont forget htem
[12:23] <whieimhere> Okay I had to check something here. please try it again

[12:23] <lilrayray> how do you configure your netwrok adapter (like choosing SSID) from the terminal or commandline?
[12:23] <nickwebcouk> can anyone help? I've just reinstalled for the 3rd time, and I have just tried the NDISWRAPPER install to install my integrated WLAN card.. Now wlan0 isnt even showing up..
[12:23] <n-iCe> !java
[12:23] <soundray> mEck0: they are PCI cards, though. I have a dibcom USB device that works with Linux, too, and I've tried an MSI one that doesn't
[12:23] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[12:23] <Exershio> Can someone help me? I'm trying to get my monitor at "1152 x 864  	75 Hz", but I cant get it working. I had it working on Windows XP fine. I used 915resolution to make 1152x864 appear, but setting it to that just made my screen blank/black and nothing worked. How can I set it to that?
[12:23] <lesshaste> can I install a package from debian unstable in ubuntu?
[12:23] <eck> Sk8aElf: no, the reason that webmin was dropped from ubuntu (and other hosting panels) is because they are security nightmares, and they frequently make troubleshooting a system very difficult
[12:23] <facugaich> arooni, you can save them in a .sh file, and then double click the file and "execute" to run them
[12:23] <mEck0> soundray, ahh, I will look at that card. Thx. I want to digitalize some old vhs-casettes to (which we have filmed for a long time ago) and of course watching tv. I wonder if the quality is at least as good as on the tv?
[12:23] <mx-zoom> whieimhere: why are you using gaim anyway? try xchat and the systray plugin. it flashes when you get a pm
[12:24] <whieimhere> oh okay
[12:24] <whieimhere> ill do that
[12:24] <arooni> facugaich: can you tell me how to do that
[12:24] <eck> Sk8aElf: if you do not use a hosting panel, you can find help in #apache and others; if you are using one, you are sort of on your own
[12:24] <soundray> mEck0: most DVB cards don't support capturing. You need an analog one - make sure it has an input connector

[12:25] <Jordan_U> lesshaste, NO.
[12:25] <Sk8aElf> eck :   joy oh joy ..  not the answer i was wanting today =/   ty tho for your answer
[12:25] <arooni> facugaich: but ill have to be in the same direcotry to find it
[12:25] <lesshaste> Jordan_U: why is that?
[12:25] <arooni> later
[12:25] <MrSHiat> hey all. Just curious, is there any way to initiate the install from a flash drive within a different distribution of linux?
[12:25] <lineman60> I could not find it in the profrences
[12:25] <Jordan_U> lesshaste, Different distros to not maintain binary comatibility
[12:25] <soundray> mEck0: PC monitors tend to be /too/ good for TV. You get some artifacts.

[12:25] <lilrayray> how do you configure your netwrok adapter (like choosing SSID) from the terminal or commandline?

I am establishing a SOCKS tunnel to a host by doing 'ssh -D1234 shellcompany.com' then I can use localhost:1234 as a SOCKS proxy for browsing, however, other computers on my network can't connect to that port.  In PuTTY theres an option to make it accept connections from the outside, how do I do that in manual ssh syntax?

[12:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about price - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:29] <eck> n-iCe: you just need to enable multiverse and install sun-java5-jre
[12:29] <n-iCe> Kubuntu 6.10 is the same as ubuntu ?
[12:29] <soundray> mEck0: digital non-HD TV is no different in resolution from analog. So the monitor issues are the same. HD may be different.
[12:29] <eck> or java 6 if that is what you want

[12:30] <eck> brenton_: you can just reformat the partition(s) it is on
[12:30] <soundray> mEck0: that device you linked has only a TV aerial input apparently. If you digitize video through that, you lose some quality. It's better if you have S-Video in

[12:32] <eugman> If I make install something is it easy to uninstall it?
[12:32] <eck> eontasticness: make sure you don't actually need 1.5 for another package though
[12:32] <soundray> brenton_: no, for that you need to "repair" your installation with a Windows install CD
[12:32] <arrenlex> blurn: Explains why so few people run Linux. Ubuntu tries to sidestep that as much as possible.
[12:32] <SmileyLap> kingcobra: you can try :) im a gentoo guy, but i use ubuntu on my laptop, and its time for me to give something back :)

[12:33] <eontasticness> eugman, anything built from src is not easy to remove, packages keep track of where files are installed to, source does not

[12:34] <Flannel> Msword: we all read your previous two things, no need for a third (or even the second)
[12:34] <Jordan_U> Msword, I have no clue what that error means but you might try the alternate install CD
[12:34] <SmileyLap> kingcobra: i coudlnt' get network manager working, but have you tried disabling the network connection you wish to configure in System >Administration > Networks
[12:34] <eugman> eontasticness, what would I have to do to uninstall if I needed to?
[12:34] <Flannel> Msword: are you sure that's the exact error text?  I've... never heard of that before, and neither has google.
[12:35] <Msword> yes
[12:35] <blurn> arrenlex, its automated like most distros, you merely have to not intend on using your pc while installing stuff :P
[12:35] <eontasticness> eugman, keep track of the information that make install output and then go remove the files
[12:35] <Msword> i wrote it down than typed it in

[12:36] <kingcobra> SmileyLap: no connection doesnt work yet
[12:36] <Msword> yes that whole thing is a direct quote

[12:37] <Flannel> Msword: So, in the middle of installing?
[12:37] <Uggggg> is anyone here familiar with sh scripts
[12:37] <Msword> yes
[12:37] <crdlb> Uggggg, what are you trying to do?
[12:37] <computermc> I need to install Berkeley DB, what is the package name in synaptic for it?
[12:37] <Jordan_U> Uggggg, Somewhat
[12:37] <Msword> when i'm picking partitions
[12:38] <threeseas> what is an easy way to mount a remote directory?
[12:38] <Msword> and i click next step
[12:38] <Uggggg> how can I link them to a launcher icon?
[12:38] <Msword> or however that is worded
[12:38] <eck> computermc: you should already have it
[12:38] <computermc> eck: ok thanks
[12:38] <Jordan_U> Uggggg, Right click the icon and change the prefs, ( I no longer use Gnome or I would be more specific )
[12:38] <crdlb> Uggggg, make it executable; and either put it in your path or put its full path in the location box
[12:38] <eck> computermc: i think it is just libdb, or something like that
[12:38] <kingcobra> SmileyLap: wmaster0 ieee 802.11g
[12:39] <threeseas> "connect to server" kinda works but won't let me save to it

[12:39] <SmileyLap> ok kingcobra,  ill open a pm with you and you can paste me the whole thing :)
[12:39] <threeseas> I've done this before but don't remember how
[12:39] <Flannel> Msword: oh, so in the partitioner in the liveCD?  interesting.  Ive never seen that before.  You might try the alternate CD, I guess.  This is while you're shrinking your NTFS partitions, right?
[12:39] <soundray> SmileyLap: do you know about pastebin?
[12:39] <eck> computermc: if you need the C headers for it, try libdb-dev
[12:39] <Uggggg> Is it possible to set up multiple scripts to run one after another...
[12:39] <asher> hi everyone
[12:39] <Jordan_U> Uggggg, Also, just in general, remember that sh script != Bash script
[12:39] <SmileyLap> soundray: aye
[12:40] <threeseas> FUSE doesn't provide any option for password
[12:40] <eck> Uggggg: yes, read the bash man page
[12:40] <LordLimecat> someone suggested i install apache2+php+phpmyadmin in order to administer MySQL
[12:40] <soundray> Uggggg: write a script that calls them one after the other
[12:40] <arrenlex> Uggggg: Make the launcher command read "script1 && script2 && script3" ...

[12:40] <LordLimecat> those packages are now installed, now what
[12:40] <LordLimecat> o.0
[12:40] <eck> the man page completely documents bash
[12:40] <crdlb> arrenlex, I don't think gnome-panel will accept that
[12:40] <LordLimecat> how do i...run..phpmyadmin?
[12:40] <Msword> Flannel: I already set the partitions using Gnome Partition Editor, I went to the advanced thing(or however that is worded) and picked the partitions i want them to go to
[12:40] <p47> crdlb:  mmm no I don;t know how can I kill kiba dock ! how can I do that ?
[12:40] <Uggggg> thanks arrenlex.. i will try that!!
[12:40] <threeseas> "connect to server" is slow not fully working
[12:40] <arrenlex> crdlb: It won't? I run kde... sorry, ignore me, then.
[12:41] <arrenlex> Uggggg: I'm told it won't work.
[12:41] <crdlb> p47: killall kiba-dock
[12:41] <Msword> Flannel: did i pick the wrong step there, I just need to be very sure it doesn't overwrite windows, i don't want to reinstall
[12:41] <Uggggg> oh
[12:41] <Uggggg> I have no clue about writing a script though
[12:41] <Uggggg> :c
[12:41] <crdlb> Uggggg, as soundray said I think you need to list them in order in another script
[12:41] <Jordan_U> Msword, Have you tried the alternate install CD?
[12:41] <Msword> no
[12:41] <computermc> what is the path to the berkeley db on ubuntu?
[12:41] <happyface> What can I do to make my USB mouse work?
[12:41] <arrenlex> Uggggg: #!/bin/sh ; script1 && script2 && script3
[12:41] <Jordan_U> Msword, When all else fails it's a good bet
[12:42] <eck> computermc: what do you mean?
[12:42] <Msword> I need someone to go over my partitions, the last guy i talked to said they might be wrong
[12:42] <arrenlex> Uggggg: Where ;  is a newline
[12:42] <DPi1> i'm trying to enable the multiverse repository so that i can install java runtime environment and the documentation tell me to go into software properties but that isn't on the menu
[12:42] <arooni> is there a really good pdf reader?
[12:42] <arooni> like foxit pdf reader
[12:42] <eck> the shared objects are in /usr/lib
[12:42] <computermc> eck: I'm install squidGuard and it says that I don't have it
[12:42] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, NO! ( #! /bin/bash ) I hate bashisms
[12:42] <Msword> who should i msg, this channel has alot of people and is confusing me
[12:42] <eck> computermc: are you trying to compile it?
[12:42] <computermc> eck: yes
[12:42] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: There are bashisms in that?
[12:43] <eck> computermc: then you need the development libraries, libdb-dev
[12:43] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, There might be in script 1 two or three
[12:43] <Flannel> DPi1: it's called different things on different versions.  It'll be something similar though.

[12:44] <BenPA> hi all ... I need help ... my Ubuntu 6.06 box has learned a new trick ... after envoking some wine applications ... my desktop icons disappear ... any clues?

[12:44] <exs> anyone know an alternative to Kino?.. Kino won't import .mpg files
[12:44] <DPi1> no it says for version 6.10 which is what i have
[12:44] <threeseas> !connect to server
[12:44] <Jordan_U> exs, You could convert to DV before editing
[12:45] <exs> Jordan_U:  it tries to convert to dv but then fails
[12:45] <soundray> exs: it sounds like kino isn't the problem, but your mpg or your codecs
[12:45] <_`XeOn_> how do i get more packages in the automatix repos?
[12:45] <DPi1> software properties doesn't appear on my administration menu
[12:45] <Jordan_U> exs, Do you have the correct codecs? You might also try mencoder
[12:46] <eck> !automatix | _`XeOn_
[12:46] <ubotu> _`XeOn_: automatix is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[12:46] <exs> Jordan_U:  I've got mencoder. the video plays fine in vlc.
[12:46] <arooni> folks is there a really good pdf reader for linux
[12:46] <DPi1> i need it to enable the multiverse repository for JRE
[12:46] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: Everyone has codecs for .mpg.
[12:46] <makuseru> how can i change the default audio track on a .mkv video

[12:46] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[12:47] <jacob> how do i install darwin streaming server?
[12:47] <crdlb> p47, look in gconf-editor to make sure it's configuration values are sane
[12:47] <tim167> I have a list of urls in a txt file, one per line, how do i automatically open them in firefox, one per tab ?
[12:47] <ledbettj> man, why is it impossible for me to burn a CD?
[12:47] <arooni> eck: but i cant drag the page donw
[12:48] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Kino comes with proprietary codecs?
[12:48] <eck> arooni: if you need support for them, you have to use acrobat
[12:48] <PhantomNJ> need help setting up internet radio stations in Listen
[12:48] <eck> arooni: middle click
[12:48] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: .mpg codecs aren't proprietary anymore. The format is so old that free, open-source versions have long been developed and integrated.
[12:48] <tim167> i tried: "cat links.txt | firefox", but that doesnt work...
[12:48] <cogeno> Does anyone know how to properly get an Extigy working?
[12:48] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Ahh, didn't know that
[12:49] <cogeno> Oh, and when you go to the "Test" in the sound options, is it just supposd to be a long high-pithced hum?
[12:49] <crdlb> tim167, firefox `cat links.txt` maybe
[12:49] <Msword> Flannel you still here?
[12:49] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: It's all these new, closed formats, like wmv, realplayer and quicktime, which companies actively develop and defend, that cause problems.
[12:49] <BenPA> hi all ... I need help ... my Ubuntu 6.06 box has learned a new trick ... after envoking some wine applications ... my desktop icons disappear ... any clues?
[12:49] <soundray> tim167: 'for i in $(cat links.txt) ; do firefox $i & done'
[12:50] <crdlb> soundray, I think you need a semicolon before the done
[12:50] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, And mp3? I know that it is playable with free software but it still is proprietary and not included in Ubuntu by default
[12:50] <soundray> crdlb: no, I don't
[12:51] <Msword> Flannel are you still here?
[12:52] <soundray> crdlb: if I did that, it wouldn't work if no firefox was running to begin with, because the loop would not continue
[12:52] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: afaik it's only mp3 encoders which are subject to fraunhofer royalties, so I don't know what's going on there.
[12:52] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, When I said Proprietary I was referring to the format, not the implementation
[12:52] <crdlb> soundray, in that case, nm
[12:52] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Does Ubuntu play mpeg from a default install?
[12:52] <eck> i believe that the algorithm used in mp3 is patented, so while it is well known how to implement it, it is not legal to do so without a license
[12:53] <Msword> could someone help me? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8698/
[12:53] <crdlb> Jordan_U, no you need ffmpeg
[12:53] <asher> does anyone here use a toshiba p105?

[12:53] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: Seems so. The decoder is in main.
[12:54] <Flannel> Msword: Er, I really have no idea what the problem might be.  What's the FAT partition for?
[12:54] <arrenlex> !mpeglib | Jordan_U

[12:54] <Exershio> can somebody help me? I used 915resolution to finally get 1152x864 to appear under my list of resolutions, but now when I select it, it makes my screen go blank and cant do anything. I had it working on Windows XP, why is it doing this?
[12:54] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: <insert haven't tried it disclaimer)
[12:54] <eck> BenPA: i don't know how to fix that problem, but you can probably get them back by issuing killall nautilus
[12:54] <soundray> BenPA: it sounds like nautilus has crashed. Restart it in a terminal, and look at that terminal for error messages in case it crashes again
[12:54] <Msword> Flannel: my guide says that so that i can reinstall the system easily
[12:55] <Msword> Flannel: we accualy talked about this in this channel a while ago
[12:55] <Jordan_U> arrenlex, Is optional means not installed by default ( not a dependency of Ubuntu-desktop ) right?
[12:55] <soundray> BenPA: eck is right, try his (her?) suggestion first
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: What is on that fat partition?
[12:55] <Msword> dell stuff
[12:55] <eck> his :-)
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: oh, you're putting /home on one partition, and then the OS on the other.  Right.  Sounds good.
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: dell stuff?
[12:55] <Flannel> Msword: oh, so you didn't touch that FAT partition, it was alreay there?
[12:55] <Msword> dell is who we bought the computer from
[12:55] <Msword> yes
[12:55] <Msword> preinstalled
[12:56] <threeseas> thanks for the help... sometimes its like praying to god, when asking questions here. He ignores you but you figure the answer out yourself anyway
[12:56] <buddy7999> Whats the boderline between the linux kernel and other stuff?

[12:56] <[Marvin] > I hope somebody can help me here - my 'alt' key keeps getting stuck - it happens constantly, even while I'm typing...each time I have to press it to get it unstuck :-/
[12:56] <buddy7999> like drivers are on the kernel side
[12:56] <sean> How can I set up nVidia Twinview to work with 1 LCD and 1 CRT?
[12:57] <eck> buddy7999: the kernel is the stuff in /boot/vmlinuz*, everything else is not the kernel
[12:57] <buddy7999> but things like GUI apps, gnome, kde, etc, are they also inside the kernel?
[12:57] <buddy7999> ah
[12:57] <soundray> eck: modules are in kernel space, though ( buddy7999 )
[12:57] <sean> !twinview
[12:57] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead
[12:57] <buddy7999> so after a kernel upgrade, can i remove the old kernel
[12:57] <buddy7999> without issues?
[12:57] <kelsin> buddy7999: yes
[12:58] <threeseas> [Marvin] : are you brave enough to take your keyboard apart?
[12:58] <soundray> sean: look at the readme in /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/
[12:58] <Flannel> Msword: well, I've never seen that error ebfore, nor does it make too much sense (and I can't find it anywhere).  If I were you, I'd cancel the install, use Gparted to create the partitions (it's on the liveCD), and then run the installer again
[12:58] <eck> and firmware too (i think)
[12:58] <buddy7999> firmware?
[12:58] <Msword> Flannel: so delete the partitions i made
[12:58] <eck> some hardware requires a module + firmware, but it is not something worth worrying about
[12:58] <[Marvin] > thansen: yeah, any particular reason?
[12:58] <arrenlex> Jordan_U: I have no idea what I'm talking about anymore, never ever installed the default ubuntu on anything, don't even run it at the moment, don't really keep up with the news and am not a lawyer, so I'll just shut up now.
[12:58] <Msword> Flannel: resize the windows thing to wat it was
[12:58] <buddy7999> ah
[12:58] <[Marvin] > threeseas even :-p
[12:58] <Flannel> Msword: just cancel.  It hasn't written changes to disk yet, if I understand it.
[12:58] <threeseas> [Marvin] : you might first try to blow the trash out of your keyboard
[12:58] <sean> k ty soundray
[12:58] <Msword> Flannel: then start over with only the installer
[12:59] <Msword> Flannel: cancel then what?
[12:59] <At0mic_PC> So what do people use for P2P now?
[12:59] <nwonknu-> I'll find out
[12:59] <Flannel> Msword: no.  Resize the partitions (in Gparted, not the installer), to their final size.  So in the installer, you don't have to do any repartitioning
[12:59] <Msword> Flannel: the partitions are already set up
[12:59] <arrenlex> At0mic_PC: torrent.
[12:59] <At0mic_PC> I've tried frostwire and amule. Both suck.
[12:59] <n33o> does anyone know if theres any way to watch FLV videos as they are downloading and being loaded to disk.
[12:59] <eck> buddy7999: try looking at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_%28computer_science%29
[12:59] <n33o> ?
[12:59] <n33o> Say from google video for example..
[12:59] <threeseas> [Marvin] : have you spilt and thing on it recently, like sticky cola or coffee with sugar
[12:59] <kelsin> At0mic_PC: you can tru one of the many gnutella clients like gtk-gnutella
[01:00] <arrenlex> n33o: Google video offers you the option to download .avis of the video you're watching.
[01:00] <kelsin> At0mic_PC: (but frostwire uses gnutella so it's the same network, might not like it either)
[01:00] <[Marvin] > threeseas: actually, I haven't spilt anything on it ever - it's a relatively new USB-keyboard
[01:00] <n33o> yeah i know.
[01:00] <n33o> (arrenlex)
[01:00] <Msword> Flannel: I already have everything to the correct size
[01:00] <BenPA> I am using Kunbuntu and it didnt work ... earlier I got an error about KWin
[01:00] <_`XeOn_> if i wanna install kubuntu over ubuntu do i have to reinstall video drivers and evrything else i have done?
[01:00] <n33o> but to save bandwidht
[01:00] <quaal> does anyone know how to solve my black screen after logging out and logging back in problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=376047
[01:00] <kingcobra> can anybody help me with basic network problem please
[01:00] <Msword> Flannel: ive just been trying to load the stuff onto the partitions, i don't need to change anything
[01:00] <n33o> im wondering if i could download it .. using a download tool.. but watch it at the same time...
[01:01] <Msword> Flannel: other than loading
[01:01] <kelsin> _`XeOn_: installing kbuntu on ubuntu: sude aptitude install kubuntu-desktop, easy as that
[01:01] <n33o> that can be done with some well known file formats
[01:01] <soundray> BenPA: try #kubuntu
[01:01] <n33o> like realmedia
[01:01] <[Marvin] > threeseas: but I shaked a lot of crap out of it...let's see if it helps...
[01:01] <buddy7999> could i in theory just copy over the kernel of ubuntu over to something else
[01:01] <buddy7999> like fedora core
[01:01] <_`XeOn_> kelsin, but i wanna know if all drivers and stuff ill be lost?
[01:01] <At0mic_PC> kelsin: It wouldn't search for me. Might have been user error. amule searches and finds all kinds of stuff just doesn't download much. Everyone has me in queue.
[01:01] <kelsin> _`XeOn_: nothing is lost, just new programs
[01:01] <Flannel> Msword: This error is a partitioning error, not an installer error.
[01:01] <_`XeOn_> ok
[01:01] <soundray> buddy7999: you can, but don't expect it to work ;)
[01:01] <_`XeOn_> tyvm
[01:01] <kelsin> At0mic_PC: then try gtk-gnutella
[01:01] <Flannel> Msword: can you currently boot into windows successfully?
[01:02] <Msword> Flannel: thats how i am speaking to you now
[01:02] <cafuego_> grrr
[01:02] <kelsin> buddy7999: in theory yes, but the ubuntu kernel has changes made for ubuntu, so no garuntee about anything
[01:02] <At0mic_PC> I've tried gtk-gnutella before. It was ok for me, but my wife hated it. Wasn't easy enough for her.
[01:02] <eck> buddy7999: it will probably work, but since the kernel in ubuntu/fedora core is 99% the same there isn't a good reason to
[01:02] <buddy7999> ah
[01:02] <threeseas> n33o: there is a firefox plugin that make use of another site to get the video. in my experience it seems to save it very fast once you have watched it... like it somehow converts what you have in cache
[01:02] <kelsin> buddy7999: all of the kernels are derived from the kernels at kernel.org, so no reason to, there is no HUGE difference except stuff that could break :)
[01:02] <Flannel> Msword: Interesting.  Ok.  Well, I say try the alternate CD.  You're sure the partitions are already made up?  This is very odd indeed.
[01:02] <Msword> Yes very sure
[01:02] <kingcobra> atomic: can i ask u a q bout my network
[01:03] <buddy7999> so all linux distros are based on a monolithic kernel?
[01:03] <kelsin> yes
[01:03] <Msword> Flannel: is there some way that i can just boot into the partitions using a cd
[01:03] <kelsin> linux is a monolithic kernel
[01:03] <eck> buddy7999: they are all based on the kernel known as "Linux"!
[01:03] <upd> hi
[01:03] <Flannel> Msword: eh?  The partitions are empty.
[01:03] <Msword> Flannel: and just download it straight to the partition?
[01:03] <buddy7999> ;) gotcha
[01:03] <At0mic_PC> kingcobra: Sure.
[01:03] <Msword> Flannel: yes they are 100% empty
[01:03] <Flannel> Msword: So, how would you boot to them?
[01:04] <soundray> buddy7999: if you want a non-monolithic kernel, try Debian GNU/Hurd or Mac OS X
[01:04] <At0mic_PC> kingcobra: Don't know how much help I'll be but I can give it a shot.
[01:04] <Flannel> !minimal | Msword, check this out
[01:04] <ubotu> Msword, check this out: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[01:04] <Msword> Flannel: i don't know, this is the first time ive ever attempted anything like this
[01:04] <ledbettj> Wow, I actually burned a cd that works...a first!  :)
[01:04] <threeseas> [Marvin] : you may be able to pop the key cap off of the sticking key (and snap it back on afterward)
[01:04] <sean> !numlock
[01:04] <ubotu> To enable Number Lock by default, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NumLock
[01:05] <Flannel> Msword: the minimal CD is identical to the alternate CD, except the minimal CD doesn't have packages on it (the alternate does), and will therefore download them all from the interblag during installation
[01:05] <buddy7999> thx all

[01:06] <Msword> Flannel: lol i wish this was as easy as it seemed to be
[01:06] <Flannel> Msword: because they (the minimal/alternate) use an entirely different installation method than the desktop CD
[01:06] <got> configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check
[01:06] <kelsin> kingcobra: do you mean it's not finding access points to connect to>?

[01:06] <kingcobra> yes

[01:07] <sean> E: Couldn't find package numlockx
[01:07] <kelsin> kingcobra: does "sudo iwlist eth1 scan" (replacing eth1 with your wireless interface) return results?
[01:07] <sean> ??
[01:07] <Flannel> Msword: It would be... if we had any idea what your error was.  It's a Parted error, which... well, If you're not partitioning, I don't know why it'd be being called
[01:07] <Flannel> Msword: are you tryingto install Edgy? or Dapper?
[01:07] <got> configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check\
[01:07] <kingcobra> kelsin: i dont kno if the drivers are working it properly either tho cos the light doesnt flickr like it does using windows
[01:07] <got> what the heck does this mean
[01:07] <eck> got: have you installed build-essential?
[01:07] <Msword> Flannel: which one do you want me to install?
[01:07] <got> ill check thanks
[01:07] <kingcobra> kelsin: 1 sec
[01:08] <threeseas> [Marvin] : sounds like an operation is needed - do you have another keyboard as backup?
[01:08] <soundray> sorry lost connection -- who asked me something about firefox?
[01:08] <Msword> Flannel: The cd i have atm is just the regular old cd with downloading stuff in it
[01:08] <kelsin> kingcobra: lights like that often don't flicker, depening on the driver.
[01:08] <jacob_> hola
[01:08] <matthew1429> who here uses wine regularly
[01:08] <jacob_> i am gonna
[01:08] <kelsin> matthew1429: I do for war3 and wow only
[01:08] <Flannel> Msword: eh?  You have a Desktop (Live) CD, right?
[01:08] <[Marvin] > threeseas: yeah. This one's just my favourite :-p
[01:08] <Msword> Flannel: Yes
[01:08] <sean> i cannot find numlockx :-/
[01:08] <premier_> Im having trouble getting my computer to hibernate
[01:08] <kelsin> matthew1429: it's better to just ask a question in the channel, someone that knows will answer if they can
[01:08] <jacob_> same here
[01:08] <lnostdal> matthew1429, i use it for WoW
[01:08] <Flannel> Msword: right, Which version though?  Dapper or Edgy?  (Or, which version of ubuntu would you like to install?)
[01:08] <got> eck, i did not have it, getting it now
[01:09] <jacob_> its just because i cant controll my power supply's power lol
[01:09] <Msword> Flannel: Whats the difference?
[01:09] <premier_> When i try it, it just get an error, one says that a usb device return -16, and the other is that it cant find the swap device
[01:09] <Flannel> Msword: Dapper is a LTS (supported for 3 years), Edgy isn't (18 months), Dapper has older software, but is more stable.
[01:09] <got> ECK, THANKS A MILLION
[01:10] <kingcobra> can i reply in pm kelsin
[01:10] <n-iCe> My gaim is closing itself !
[01:10] <matthew1429> kelsin: I have a software that works with windows and is time limited... does all of that install to my .wine dir?  in other words is it possible to just erase that dir and reinstall when the time limit goes out?
[01:10] <threeseas> [Marvin] : I've had such keyboard problems and opening them can be a little risky, but if you have patience and no pets to get in the way...some keyboards are easy, just gotta keep the silicon springs in place.
[01:10] <tim167> soundray: i asked about opening a list of links in firefox
[01:10] <Msword> Flannel: I want the more stable one
[01:10] <Msword> Flannel: so dapper
[01:10] <n-iCe> !beryl
[01:10] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[01:10] <soundray> tim167: oh yeah
[01:10] <arooni> how do i get a newer version of subversion
[01:10] <Flannel> Msword: alright, then download the dapper alternate CD
[01:10] <arooni> i need 1.4 >
[01:10] <kelsin> matthew1429: it depends, a lot of time limits (like macromedia's crappy stuff) writes stuff into spare space in your hard drivers boot record and stuff like that, it might be, it might not be, all depends
[01:10] <soundray> tim167: try adding the --new-tab option before the URL
[01:10] <exs> I'm trying to submit my video to youtube but it's too big. is there an easy way to make it smaller?
[01:11] <kingcobra> kelsin: can i reply in pm
[01:11] <Flannel> arooni: 1.4 will be in Feisty
[01:11] <Msword> Flannel: i realy hope this works, this is a pain lol
[01:11] <soundray> tim167: sorry it's -new-tab (one dash)
[01:11] <premier_> can someone help me get my computer to hibernate?
[01:11] <got> eck thanks that worked!
[01:11] <eck> exs: google 'mencoder'
[01:11] <arooni> Flannel: i get this erroR: svn: This client is too old to work with working copy '.'; please get a newer Subversion client
[01:11] <eck> got: np
[01:11] <arooni> Flannel: how do i fix this
[01:11] <matthew1429> kelsin: is there a way around that?
[01:11] <exs> eck:  and after i've got mencoder, what do I do?
[01:11] <[Marvin] > threeseas: I'm pretty confident that I can take this one apart and reassemble it...but what would I do - just clean it?
[01:11] <kelsin> kingcobra: if you want, the channel might help others, you won't want to repeat yourself if someone else has to help after
[01:11] <matthew1429> kelsin: if it does do the boot mgr?
[01:12] <kingcobra> ok ill talk here np
[01:12] <tim167> soundray: perfect! :)
[01:12] <threeseas> [Marvin] : one keyboard I had I determined the problem was the connection with the ribbion cable to the small curcuit. - so you'd just have to see what you can find that causing the problem
[01:12] <kelsin> matthew1429: all depends on the software, no way to say without knowning exactly what the software does to handle it's time stuff... which you can't unless it's open
[01:12] <Flannel> arooni: Looks like that error is if you use svn1.4 on that working copy, and then go back to an older version
[01:12] <soundray> tim167 :)
[01:12] <eck> exs: it is a video encoder using the same backend as mplayer, but to use it is kind of complicated; search for a howto online (or in the forums)
[01:12] <kelsin> matthew1429: ussually not
[01:12] <matthew1429> :(
[01:12] <arooni> Flannel: huH?  i need svn 1.4
[01:12] <arooni> how do i get it
[01:12] <kingcobra> kelsin: interface doesnt support scanning : network is down
[01:12] <tim167> soundray: btw, works with --new-tab too here
[01:12] <Flannel> arooni: you upgrade to Feisty
[01:13] <Flannel> arooni: or build it yourself
[01:13] <kelsin> kingcobra: you sure you were doing the right interface (might not be eth1 for you)
[01:13] <Flannel> arooni: I'd try checking out again.  Make a new working copy.
[01:13] <arooni> Flannel: i have ubuntu 6.10
[01:13] <eck> exs: you might try this one http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Mencoder_Introduction_Guide
[01:13] <arooni> Flannel: so what should id o (its my second day with linux)
[01:13] <exs> eck:  thanks
[01:13] <threeseas> [Marvin] : I was able to fix the connection with scotch tape to build up a keyboard case pressure point when closed
[01:14] <Flannel> arooni: check out a new working copy.
[01:14] <Flannel> arooni: see if that fixes it.
[01:14] <At0mic_P1> gtk-gnutella doesn't seem to do anything...
[01:14] <[Marvin] > threeseas: hmm, well I don't know...I've only had the problem while using Ubuntu - it's somewhat intermittent, but hasn't happened to me in a console or in Windows...
[01:14] <_`XeOn_> if i install kubuntu the whole system change?
[01:14] <kingcobra> kelsin: i hav 2 wireless interfaces wlan0 and wmaster0
[01:14] <Flannel> _`XeOn_: You'll have Ubuntu and Kubuntu installed
[01:14] <kingcobra> kelsin: wlan0 gave last msg
[01:15] <_`XeOn_> hmm sounds weird
[01:15] <kelsin> kingcobra: what type of card is it?
[01:15] <arooni> if i need to run 4 lines of command line stuff at a tmie
[01:15] <arooni> how can i do this?
[01:15] <Flannel> _`XeOn_: you'll be able to choose between them at GDM/KDM (the login screen)
[01:15] <kingcobra> kelsin: wmaster0 says interface doesnt support scanning : operation not supported
[01:15] <_`XeOn_> oh ok i got it now
[01:15] <Moniker42> hey could someone give me a hand getting grub installed and ubuntu working again after i installed xp?
[01:15] <shadowhywind> hay i am having issues with my external monitor. All i get is just a bunch of color can anyone help
[01:15] <soundray> arooni: combine commands on a line with ;
[01:15] <threeseas> [Marvin] : In that case I'd switch keyboards for a while to verify it to be not the keyboard - but somehow I doubt its the software
[01:15] <Flannel> arooni: command1 && command2 && command3 && command4 (that'll run the subsequent command only if the former ones succeed), or use ; to run unconditionally
[01:15] <wrox> arooni: is that a catch? 4 lines or 4 commands ?
[01:16] <_`XeOn_> any1 have americas army installed?
[01:16] <wrox> :)
[01:16] <arooni> ahh 4 lines
[01:16] <arooni> i mean
[01:16] <arooni> 4 lines && 4 commands
[01:16] <arooni> :P
[01:16] <wrox> arooni: to continue typing on the next line use \
[01:16] <[Marvin] > threeseas: right...I should really have done that myself before I came here - but thanks for the help though :-p
[01:16] <exs> I'm surprised the only way to convert video down is using command lines. Does anyone know a backend for mencoder that is GUI and simple??
[01:16] <arooni> how do i go to the beginning of a termianl line
[01:17] <arooni> wiothout having to hit the left arrow key a bunch of tmies
[01:17] <kingcobra> kelsin: its a cable and wireless wireless usb adaptor
[01:17] <soundray> arooni: Ctl-A
[01:17] <joshjosh> shift-tab maybe?
[01:17] <joshjosh> hheh. i was way off
[01:17] <kelsin> kingcobra: what driver does it use?
[01:17] <soundray> arooni: or the Home key if you have one
[01:17] <eck> exs: there are some frontends listed at the end of the article
[01:17] <Exershio> can somebody help me? I used 915resolution to finally get 1152x864 to appear under my list of resolutions, but now when I select it, it makes my screen go blank and cant do anything. I had it working on Windows XP, why is it doing this?
[01:18] <_`XeOn_> whats the keyboard combination to switch applications?
[01:18] <Flannel> arooni: You don't need 1.4, I don't know why you're getting that error, but you should be perfectly fine using an older version on that working copy, provied you haven't used 1.4 on it.
[01:18] <threeseas> exs: I don't know but suspect that a distro like dyne:bolic (runs live would have the tools included that you are looking for
[01:18] <soundray> _`XeOn_: Alt-Tab
[01:18] <_`XeOn_> :)
[01:18] <Flannel> arooni: Or rather, start a new working copy (using 1.3, in Edgy), and you'll be fine.
[01:18] <_`XeOn_> i tho was for win only
[01:18] <arrenlex> exs: (Sorry if someone already gave you this link) http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/projects.html#mencoder_frontends
[01:18] <Regner> how can i fully remove something through apt ? I tried to uninstall something but its still there
[01:18] <kingcobra> kelsin: i dont know
[01:19] <exs> thanks arrenlex, threeseas
[01:19] <sean> Why can't I get numlockx?
[01:19] <^BiplanE^> hi all
[01:19] <foormea> hi, am i supposed to suid root cdrecord, or launch it as root? i've just tried to blank a CDRW, and it freezed...
[01:19] <soundray> Regner: to remove a package *and* its config files, use 'sudo apt-get --purge remove packagename'
[01:19] <kingcobra> kelsin: ubuntu recognised it automatically
[01:19] <Regner> soundray: thank you I will try that
[01:19] <sean> Why can't I apt-get numlockx?
[01:19] <kelsin> kingcobra: what brand of card is it?
[01:20] <kingcobra> cable and wireless
[01:20] <Flannel> sean: it's in universe, so it's likely you haven't enabled universe yet
[01:20] <^BiplanE^> Are there official banners of ubuntu for my blog?
[01:20] <_`XeOn_> does any1 have americas army installed or call of duty?
[01:20] <soundray> sean: enable the appropriate repository
[01:20] <Msword> Flannel: I dl'd it and i'm gonna go try it now
[01:20] <sean> how would I do that?
[01:20] <soundray> !repos > sean, read ubotu's private message
[01:21] <arrenlex> exs: Although the command line is really quite easy once you get the hang of it. mencoder -ovc lavc -oav lavc -lavcopts vbitrate=<video bitrate>:abitrate=<audio bitrate>:vhq <input.avi> -o <output.avi>
[01:21] <Regner> soundray: all i get when i do that is "E: Invalid operation mythtv"
[01:21] <soundray> !software > sean
[01:21] <kingcobra> kelsin: cable and wireless
[01:21] <arrenlex> exs, sorry, oav should be oac
[01:21] <soundray> Regner: you forgot the "remove" keyword
[01:21] <exs> arrenlex:  nah, too complex for me
[01:21] <sean> Can't you just give me a command? :P
[01:21] <Regner> soundray: .... well then.
[01:21] <arrenlex> exs: But I wrote the whole command except for places to stick numbers and the file. xD
[01:22] <Flannel> sean: it's not a command, but a series of steps.
[01:22] <Regner> thank you
[01:22] <sean> ah, k
[01:22] <Flannel> sean: the link ubotu sent you has instructions
[01:22] <sean> yeah, ty
[01:22] <soundray> sean: no, you have to read this. This is essential stuff if you want even just moderate success with Ubuntu
[01:23] <light_> debian unstable is faster and more updated then ubuntu edjy?
[01:23] <sean> I understand the concepts of repositories and such...
[01:23] <kelsin> kingcobra: I know nothing about that brand. It's definately not a network-manager problem since iwconfig is not getting any information from it. It sounds like a driver issue to me. The best bet is to google and bit and make sure ubuntu is using the right drivers. If they are install them or look into using ndiswrapper for it (with windows drivers). I have never used ndiswrapper though
[01:23] <light_> edgy*
[01:23] <kelsin> light_: debian unstable is a moving target, it isn't a "release"
[01:23] <Flannel> light_: Edgy is frozen (it won't ever get new versions), Debian unstable is one long rolling upgrade
[01:23] <arrenlex> light_: I typically find that debian unstable (sid) has newer versions of things than feisty does. Speed is subjective.
[01:23] <kelsin> light_: edgy is kindof like a "snapshot" of debian unstable when edgy came out
[01:23] <kelsin> light_: but with many changes for ubuntu of course
[01:24] <exeakiel> How do I use .sh files?
[01:24] <HumpBack> Hello, is there a file in ubuntu where we can put the name of modules we want to be loaded at boot time?
[01:24] <quaal> does anyone know how to solve my black screen after logging out and logging back in problem? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=376047
[01:24] <soundray> exeakiel: you don't if you can at all avoid it.
[01:24] <ledbettj> HumpBack:  /etc/modules
[01:24] <soundray> exeakiel: what are you trying to do?
[01:24] <kingcobra> kelsin: how do i check what drivers ubuntu is using at the moment
[01:24] <HumpBack> ledbettj: thanks
[01:25] <light_> kelsin: arrenlex Flannel thank you
[01:25] <kelsin> kingcobra: I honestly don't know. the command "sudo lsmod" will show you what drivers are loaded, connecting them to what they are used for can be harder
[01:25] <sean> Flannel: the these instructions are for Dapper, not Edgy :-/

[01:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about monitor - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:25] <lnxmomo> where can i find information on the future release of ubuntu and what it will include
[01:25] <ubotu> K3nto: xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead

[01:26] <Flannel> sean: Same method (although I think the text on the menu item is slightly different)
[01:26] <lilrayray> how do you change the network settings (like choosing the SSID) from the command line?
[01:26] <kelsin> lnxmomo: there are more general docs too, but if you goto packages.ubuntu.com you can search for packages in fiesty and see what version they are
[01:26] <kelsin> lilrayray: the iwconfig program
[01:26] <^BiplanE^> Are there official banners of ubuntu for my blog?
[01:26] <light_> where can i see the differences between debian and ubuntu?
[01:26] <ledbettj> lilrayray: sudo iwconfig interface_name essid <value>
[01:27] <IndyGunFreak> light_: osdir.org
[01:27] <ledbettj> like, sudo iwconfig ath0 essid "linksys"
[01:27] <sean> Flannel: It says I already have Universe selected..
[01:27] <arrenlex> !debian | light_
[01:27] <ubotu> light_: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[01:27] <kelsin> light_: googling "debian vs ubuntu" might be a start, there isn't one place to see EVERY difference
[01:27] <lilrayray> ledbettj, what would I enter if my ssid is "michael"?
[01:27] <Flannel> sean: alright, assuming you do, go back and see if numlockx is there
[01:27] <jacob> anyone familiar with streaming?
[01:27] <light_> IndyGunFreak: arrenlex kelsin thank you
[01:27] <kelsin> ^BiplanE^: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WebsiteButtons

[01:28] <Flannel> sean: pastebin your sources.list (it's /etc/apt/sources.list)
[01:28] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: how come you always PM bot info?  what if they have PM's off?
[01:28] <wmealing_> can someone tell me if the RH directory server is available on ubuntu's repos ?
[01:28] <soundray> houmala: temporarily or forever?
[01:28] <sean> !pastebin
[01:28] <ikitat> I have to do a breezy to dapper upgrade remotely.  The breezy install is a server so it doesn't have a desktop environment (it has ubuntu_minimal and ubuntu_standard).  The DapperUpgrade wiki page says that the desktop environment is essential.
[01:28] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:28] <sean> :P
[01:28] <sean> ah k
[01:28] <houmala> for good till reboot

[01:29] <Flannel> ikitat: only if you're running a desktop environment
[01:29] <ikitat> I'm 2 hours away from this server, but I need to upgrade it soon... should I be worried?
[01:29] <ikitat> ok
[01:29] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: reduces noise
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: lol, wasn't accusing you of botabuse
[01:29] <Flannel> ikitat: (lots of people have removed ubuntu-desktop to remove some component, needs to be reinstalled to upgrade)
[01:29] <lilrayray> ledbettj, I am confused, what goes inplace of <value>?
[01:29] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  !
[01:29] <n-iCe> Hii
[01:29] <ikitat> I've always pulled off the debian upgrades without a hitch
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: oh ok.. i
[01:29] <n-iCe> I change to ubuntu now :)
[01:29] <n-iCe> changed
[01:29] <bimberi> ikitat: that's referring to desktop installs.  you dont' need it for what you're doing.
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: hey
[01:29] <kelsin> lilrayray: your essid, you should read the iwconfig manual for more information
[01:29] <Flannel> ikitat: if you have no desktop metapackage, it doesn't matter, at all.  Just change sources.list and dist upgrade
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: what ended up being the problem yesterday?
[01:29] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: I also take care to tell people what I'm doing, so they know what to look for
[01:30] <ikitat> great
[01:30] <kronus_> hello all
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> soundray: no sweat, i was just curioius why you did that.
[01:30] <ikitat> does aptitude provide an advantage over apt-get?
[01:30] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  well i changed to ubuntu then... is ok now
[01:30] <sean> Flannel: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/8707/
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: what was you're problem yesterday, i remember talking to you though
[01:30] <n-iCe> ABout the icons
[01:30] <arrenlex> ikitat: No.
[01:30] <n-iCe> how to put it in the panel
[01:30] <soundray> IndyGunFreak: I only saw this goodbotuse entry a couple of days ago, and it made sense to me, so I started getting into the habit.
[01:30] <n-iCe> or in desktop
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: thats right... well that wasn't that big a deal, no real need to switch OS's over that..lol
[01:31] <n-iCe> =p
[01:31] <bimberi> ikitat: not since Edgy (6.10) where apt-get got 'autoremove' capabilities.
[01:31] <n-iCe> now i'm thinking in compiz
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: i thought you mentioned your PC was slow?
[01:31] <Flannel> sean: looks like you do, yes.  so, 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install numlockx'
[01:31] <_`XeOn_> man im getting mad i spend 10 hours a day installing uninstalling testing this testing that and never get what i want working
[01:31] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  well this one no, the other one in my room yes.
[01:31] <n-iCe> why ?
[01:31] <ikitat> ok.... my goal is to go from breezy to dapper to edgy tonight
[01:31] <n-iCe> what distro i should install in my slow pc ?

[01:32] <arrenlex> soundray: Actually, I don't like it. Unregistered users will try to talk to ubotu and be frustrated that he is not replying (since they can't send PMs). Furthermore, having ubotu answer in the channel lets other users see the responses, and they learn things. Furthermore, helpers read ubotu's responses and make mental notes to use factoids to help people in the future.

[01:32] <ikitat> I had to install breezy a couple of weeks before dapper became stable :/
[01:32] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: As you're in a Ubuntu channel, I suggest Xubuntu.
[01:32] <n-iCe> Odd_Bloke:  but work slower than windows
[01:32] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: What does?
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: isn't compiz, beryl?
[01:32] <houmala> what driver for a geforce 7600GS in ubuntu??
[01:32] <arrenlex> IndyGunFreak: Compiz != beryl
[01:33] <bimberi> ikitat: i've kept my server at Dapper (because it's an Long Term Support release).  Something to consider unless you need up-to-the-minute config
[01:33] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  moreless
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> arrenlex: thats what i thought.
[01:33] <Flannel> ikitat: er, why to edgy?  Version of something you want?
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: just make sure you've got pretty good resources
[01:33] <DigitalNinja> houmala: the nvidia driver
[01:33] <n-iCe> here i have
[01:33] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: If you want something crazily cut-down, Damn Small Linux perhaps. :p
[01:33] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: what type of video card
[01:33] <houmala> i know nvidia but where or which?
[01:33] <n-iCe> Odd_Bloke:  i already try it, but my usb wireless adpater doesn't work there.
[01:33] <n-iCe> why? i don't know
[01:33] <premier_> I cant get my computer to hibernate, and it wont wake from suspend; I have to restart it
[01:33] <K3nto> !twinview
[01:33] <fjardt> If I just installed a KDE application, but how can I remove not only the application and all KDE things that were required for it?
[01:33] <DigitalNinja> houmala: They honly have one driver.

[01:33] <sean> Flannel: <3
[01:33] <Regner> so i tried apt-get remove --purge mythtv, but its all still there, mythtv and mythtvbackend and the setup and all of it. How do i get rid of it so i can reinstall it from scratch
[01:34] <houmala> hummm..
[01:34] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: Have you tried Xubuntu or not, I missed your reply in the spaff.
[01:34] <Flannel> sean: after you change sources.list, you need to update the package cache (that was the first command) to get the changes
[01:34] <ikitat> Flannel bimberi, I could just stop at dapper
[01:34] <DigitalNinja> houmala: you need to make sure your sources.lst is setup to get it thought
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> Regner: what i ended up doing, was goign to synaptic, and removing one package at a time.. then removing the core package last
[01:34] <n-iCe> Odd_Bloke:  yeah work slow , slower than windows xp
[01:34] <ikitat> I have no reason to go to edgy
[01:34] <houmala> using default list that came with ubuntu
[01:34] <sean> Flannel: thanks
[01:34] <bimberi> ikitat: good idea, unless you really need a later version of something :)
[01:34] <Flannel> ikitat: Unless there's a version of something you absolutely need, there's no real need to upgrade to Edgy for a server, especially.
[01:34] <lilrayray> does safe mode have network access?
[01:34] <IndyGunFreak> ikitat: what do you use now?
[01:34] <bimberi> Flannel: :)
[01:35] <ikitat> ok.. one more question.. how can I determine which apps I installed as backports?
[01:35] <arooni> what progeram will open visio files on my computer?
[01:35] <houmala> uncommented all in list
[01:35] <Regner> IndyGunFreak: i dont have X server installed
[01:35] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: How slow is this PC?
[01:35] <fjardt> If I just installed a KDE application, but how can I remove not only the application and all KDE things that were required for it?
[01:35] <DigitalNinja> houmala: That should work. now "apt-get update"
[01:35] <n-iCe> well Odd_Bloke isn't, in windows works fine... but i don't know why in xubuntu doesn't
[01:35] <ikitat> IndyGunFreek breezy
[01:36] <houmala> ok sudo apt-get install ?????
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> Odd_Bloke: i think he had some other issues than just the slow pC
[01:36] <kelsin> fjardt: when you remove the package you installed it should remove everything else that wasn't brought it by you also
[01:36] <MukiEX> Anyone know how to eject the livecd temporarily to burn something with k3b?
[01:36] <bimberi> fjardt: sudo apt-get autoremove <package>
[01:36] <IndyGunFreak> MukiEX: i'm not sure you can.
[01:36] <Odd_Bloke> IndyGunFreak: Ah, right.
[01:36] <n-iCe> so?
[01:36] <DigitalNinja> houmala: use Synaptic to search for "nvidia"
[01:36] <TridenT_Boy3555> Need help
[01:36] <TridenT_Boy3555> anyone wanna?
[01:37] <houmala> ok synaptic

[01:37] <DigitalNinja> houmala: You could use apt-get but I don't remember what the package is called
[01:37] <wmealing_> My ubuntu box is off and many miles away.
[01:37] <kelsin> wmealing_: you can search on packages.ubuntu.com
[01:37] <zoidberg> hey guys

[01:37] <zoidberg> i have a qeustion
[01:38] <zoidberg> can anyone help me
[01:38] <wolfspirit> you have to ask the question first
[01:38] <IndyGunFreak> !anyone | zoidberg
[01:38] <ubotu> zoidberg: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:38] <zoidberg> ?
[01:38] <houmala> will try nividia ( non free ???)
[01:38] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  install linux in my slwo pc

[01:38] <kelsin> wmealing_: np
[01:38] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: well, what was the issue, it was wireless wouldnt' work, right?
[01:38] <lilrayray> does anyone know if safemode has network access?
[01:38] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Works for me
[01:38] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  jusy in ubuntu xubuntu work
[01:38] <n-iCe> just
[01:39] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: all i get it a black box
[01:39] <premier_> can anybody help me with hibernation?  I think my computer cant find the swap partition
[01:39] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: What are you trying to watch
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: so wireless worked in Ubuntu, but not in Ubuntu?
[01:39] <defendguin> http://www.nba.com/hornets/  DigitalNinja try any video
[01:39] <IndyGunFreak> i mean it dind't work in Xubuntu
[01:39] <wolfspirit> I'm new to ubuntu (just came over from fedora)... and I was wondering.. is 2.6.17 really the newest kernel in the main repositories or do I not have all of them set up correctly
[01:39] <Odd_Bloke> n-iCe: What type of graphics card does this PC have?
[01:39] <n-iCe> IndyGunFreak:  works in ubuntu and in xubuntu but both works slow in my pc
[01:40] <lilrayray> Does safemode have netwrok access???
[01:40] <kelsin> wolfspirit: depends on what release of ubuntu you're using
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: thats right, you were getting connected, but it was real slow.
[01:40] <wolfspirit> kelsin: edgy
[01:40] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: going there now
[01:40] <IndyGunFreak> n-iCe: i wish i could help you, but i know squat about wireless
[01:40] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Ubuntu safe mode? Why not just start it and find out?
[01:41] <kelsin> wolfspirit: then yes
[01:41] <n-iCe> np
[01:41] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: it's loading
[01:41] <n-iCe> where can i downlaod the last amsn version ?
[01:41] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: you using the mplayer plugin?
[01:41] <n-iCe> sudo apt-get install amsn
[01:41] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: I am in it now, and I cant seem to get my wirless adapter working, so I was wondering if anyone knew whether safemode was the problem
[01:41] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I'm on a slow connection at the moment so it may take a while
[01:41] <n-iCe> should install the lastest version ?
[01:41] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I think so

[01:42] <slylyias> Hi, I'm using ubuntu on my new x86-64 computer, and I'm trying to ssh in to a remote unix cluster and run things like emacs and ddd there. However I can't seem to get a graphical interface. What do I need to do?
[01:42] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Yup! Mplayer plugin.
[01:42] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Why can't you boot into normal mode?
[01:42] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: ubuntu installs the totem plugin by default
[01:42] <kelsin> slylyias: you said you're sshing in but want a graphical interface, can you be more specific?
[01:42] <defendguin> the mplayer plugin does work and i have used it in the past
[01:42] <slylyias> I'm typing ssh <server address>
[01:42] <DPic> my screensaver doesn't work
[01:43] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: Because I cant start X in 6.10 without the NVidia drivers installed, and to install them I need internet access
[01:43] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: You can use synaptic to install the mplayer plugin
[01:43] <K3nto> hey guys. i got my second monitor to work , but the laptop screen is balck
[01:43] <K3nto> or off
[01:43] <wolfspirit> kelsin: edgy is the newest one other than fiesty (which is not released yet) right?
[01:43] <arrenlex> wolfspirit: y
[01:43] <kelsin> slylyias: yes that gives you a text connection, that's all ssh does by default. do you want a remote desktop type of thing, or do you want to be able to run a remote graphical app and have it show up on your desktop?
[01:44] <slylyias> I want to run a remote graphical app and have it show up on your desktop.
[01:44] <nisq_57> #foss
[01:44] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Just use the CLI?
[01:44] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: how?
[01:44] <TruVisionary> how do u change the Alt tab command to cube in compiz?
[01:44] <wolfspirit> is there an easy direct update path for edgy to fiesty using apt-get or dpkg?  I know with yum you just change the release level and then say update and it goes to the newest version..
[01:45] <Darth_Tux> is this a safe repository ?  deb http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/ edgy free
[01:45] <kelsin> slylyias: as long as the remote server has it enabled, edit your /etc/ssh/ssh_config file (sudo gedit /etc/ssh/ssh_config) and make sure you change the two lines about ForwardX11 to uncommented and "yes"
[01:45] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: What happens when you boot into normal mode?
[01:45] <techie> Good evening. Can anybody tell me how to make my Totem movie player read my cdrom?
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> techie: like DVD's
[01:45] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: I get an Xserver error: "No Screens Found"
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> ?
[01:45] <TruVisionary> techie, I think you have to download the codec
[01:45] <kelsin> slylyias: (if you have access to the remote server there is an option in their /etc/ssh/sshd_config file to do the same, that has to be enabled)
[01:45] <slylyias> Thank you Kelsin.
[01:45] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I think my internet connection is to slow for video. It's still down loading
[01:45] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Then what?
[01:45] <techie> yes
[01:45] <IndyGunFreak> !dvd
[01:45] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages
[01:46] <russe11> I installed the Adobe Reader and plugin for firefox (with apt), but now if I use apt to remove it, I get error messages in firefox when clicking on pdf links, rather than being prompted to download the pdf file (what I want.) What can I do?
[01:46] <kelsin> slylyias: it "should" work if both the server and your client have their config files to say it is
[01:46] <lilrayray> Odd_Bloke: Then nothing happens and I have to reboot
[01:46] <techie> it says it does not have the URI installed?
[01:46] <IndyGunFreak> techie: hang on a sec.
[01:46] <slylyias> Kelsin: Define access, hehe. There is 'can change it' and 'supposed to have access to that account'. :P
[01:46] <DigitalNinja> TruVisionary: What's the story on "compiz"? I'm using Beryl on my main workstation.
[01:46] <techie> IndyGunFreak> thanks in advance
[01:46] <kelsin> russe11: goto preferences and the Content tab and change what firefox does with pdfs
[01:46] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Try using Ctrl-Alt-F1 (or other F-key).
[01:46] <slylyias> Thank you for the help kelsin.
[01:46] <jacob_> can someone help me download and install darwin streaming server
[01:46] <lilrayray> ok, I will
[01:46] <kelsin> slylyias: if you don't have root access on the machine you probably can change it's sshd settings
[01:47] <IndyGunFreak> techie:  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[01:47] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: You should get a login prompt, at which point you can follow instructions to install NVidia drivers from the command line.
[01:47] <mEck0> I have an HP Pavilion DV6184ea and wonder how I can fix the battery monitor "power manager v2.16.1" in gnome? It does not show me the right % left of my battery and not the right time left :/ this works fine in Windows :/
[01:47] <techie> Truvisonary how do you go there an enable. through terminal?
[01:47] <Odd_Bloke> lilrayray: Which I suggest you print/copy out ahead of time.
[01:47] <slylyias> I don't have the root password, but I found a really badly coded script that uses root prims that I can abuse to get a terminal console as root. :P
[01:47] <russe11> kelsin: That doesn't seem like the cleanest solution, because it still thinks I have the acrobat reader plugin.
[01:48] <islan> ghar!  the latest update for firefox has left it buggy as hell
[01:49] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I have video
[01:49] <kelsin> russe11: does it only think that cause pdf's are still supposed to use it to open? once you change it to open pdf's with another program what types of plugin errors are you getting?
[01:49] <DigitalNinja> ??
[01:49] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: but why isn't mplayer included by default instead of totem.  totem doesn't work at all
[01:50] <MatrixMon> Can anyone tell where I can find a list of new viruses?
[01:50] <Odd_Bloke> MatrixMon: New viruses for what?
[01:50] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Totme doesn't come with the codec to play anything
[01:50] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: The codecs for Totem and Mplayer arn't free
[01:50] <defendguin> DigitalNinja: they have a codec pack for that
[01:50] <DigitalNinja> or open
[01:50] <TruVisionary> DigitalNinja: I don't know much but I think that they both have basically the same effects but beryl is much more powerful or sumthin
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: I don't know how Totem works
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> TruVisionary: Cool!
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> TruVisionary: I'll stay on Beryl
[01:51] <kelsin> defendguin: totem uses the gstreamer plugsin, if you enable all the repositories and then install all of the gstreamerplugin packages you can find, tomem will probably surprise you
[01:51] <|omegabeta|> Can anyone suggest a music player like amarok for gnome? that is "not" rythmbox
[01:51] <DigitalNinja> defendguin: Hold on
[01:51] <Beverage> hey folks, I have a question, what should the permissions be on the /var/www folder so that it doesnt give you permission denied on the localhost url
[01:51] <islan> I find totem a little on the buggy side
[01:51] <|omegabeta|> something like songbird
[01:51] <Odd_Bloke> TruVisionary, DigitalNinja: Beryl is a fork of the Compiz project, but seems to be favoured by most people...
[01:51] <kelsin> |omegabeta|: mpd with sonata, listen, banshee, exaile
[01:51] <MatrixMon> Winblows
[01:51] <MatrixMon> Xp
[01:51] <wolfspirit> Beverage: apache
[01:52] <Odd_Bloke> MatrixMon: Why are you asking in #_ubuntu_?
[01:52] <IndyGunFreak> Odd_Bloke: lol
[01:52] <DigitalNinja> Odd_Bloke: I see
[01:52] <wolfspirit> Beverage: but what you see in the url should actually be /var/www/html
[01:52] <Beverage> wolfspirit, i have it installed, but i changed the permissions so i could work in that folder openly
[01:52] <Odd_Bloke> |omegabeta|: You could look into mpd. Oh, poned by kelsin, I see. :p
[01:52] <slylyias> kelsin: I don't seem to have gedit on the computer.
[01:52] <TruVisionary> I'm gonna stick with compiz anyway
[01:52] <|omegabeta|> Beryl is great.. WoW on one screen, thottbott on the other
[01:53] <TruVisionary> but how do I install the themes for it?
[01:53] <slylyias> kelsin: Sudo: gedit: command not found"
[01:53] <|omegabeta|> emereld theme manager
[01:53] <kelsin> slylyias: you can install it with "sudo aptitude install gedit" then
[01:53] <DigitalNinja> | omegabeta |: what is "thottbott
[01:53] <exeakiel> How do I get NVIDIA drivers?
[01:53] <kelsin> |omegabeta|: I used to fade out wow to see thotbot behind it :)
[01:53] <DigitalNinja> |omegabetta|
[01:53] <wolfspirit> |omegabeta|: I agree
[01:53] <slylyias> I use KDE, is gedit a gnome thing?
[01:53] <TruVisionary> where would I get that emerald theme manager?
[01:54] <DigitalNinja> what is thotbot?
[01:54] <wolfspirit> slylyias: yes
[01:54] <Odd_Bloke> TruVisionary: It's in repos.
[01:54] <slylyias> IS there a KDE thing.
[01:54] <riqz> hiya peeps
[01:54] <TruVisionary> Odd_Bloke: "repos"?
[01:54] <russe11> kelsin: I don't get any errors, but it still offers the plugin (that should have been uninstalled) as an option for PDF files that bothers me.
[01:54] <riqz> listen any one of u know of a good rss feed reader for ubuntu?
[01:54] <slylyias> is there a kde text editor I can envoke?

[01:55] <kelsin> russe11: I honestly don't know how to remove that :-(
[01:55] <arrenlex> slylyias: kwrite

[01:57] <kelsin> techie: look into Inkscape or Scribus, I prefer Inkscape, I think there are some others, but I use Inkscape for any type of layout work
i got sidetrack and wrote down the page, but probably will need to get more info this is now my third day using Ubuntu.
[01:58] <redhat_> islan sudo chown -R 777 /var/www doesnt work. Cant i log in as root to do theese things?
[01:58] <Odd_Bloke> duncan_: I think it's going to be exciting getting it to work on that. Are you using the binary drivers?
[01:58] <techie> Kelsin thanks.
[01:58] <IndyGunFreak> techie: the page is pretty clear
[01:58] <islan> redhat_, not in ubuntu, you just have sudo
[01:58] <akinari42> hi
[01:59] <islan> redhat_, of course you can just use sudo for all of your commands
[01:59] <inpho> how can i detect my usb external harddrive on my ubuntu install?
[01:59] <techie> INdyGunFreak I had downloaded stuff from there and put in the terminal this morning but still it did not work. tell me the page again. if so can I redo it .. maybe I did something wrong
[01:59] <redhat_> islan but the sudo chown -R 777 /var/www doesnt work?
[01:59] <duncan_> Odd_Block: um, just using whatever came with the live CD.  Package Manager claims that the ones installed should be compatible with an X300
[01:59] <akinari42> Does anyone else have ubuntu running on a MacBook?
[01:59] <slylyias> kelsin: SUCCESS! I have a graphical window! Thank you.
[01:59] <IndyGunFreak> techie: what do you mean tell you again?
[01:59] <kelsin> slylyias: np
[01:59] <duncan_> (odd bloke even, oops)
[01:59] <arrenlex> duncan_: I have an X300. You're going to have to use the newer drivers from ati.com rather than the ones from the ubuntu repositories because the older ones don't work well with this card.
[01:59] <techie> the site link
[02:00] <sanityx> I have a silly question. How do I add a module to the list of modules that load at boot? (kernel modules that is)
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> techie: it shoud install ina bout 5min
[02:00] <slylyias> HAve a good night everyone!
[02:00] <kelsin> slylyias: most distributions have that off by default ont he clients and not the server, ussually have to edit that file, glad it works
[02:00] <DPic> i can't access software prefrences. can anybody help me?
[02:00] <kelsin> sanityx: /etc/modules
[02:00] <duncan_> ahh right.  I have those sitting on the desktop atm.  ati-driver-installer-8.34.8-x86
[02:00] <duncan_> the .run file
[02:00] <kelsin> sanityx: edit that file as root (sudo gedit /etc/modules)
[02:00] <arooni> can anyone help me install subversion 1.40
 tell me the link again, i think i went to another page that somebody else suggestged.
[02:00] <arooni> http://pastie.caboo.se/44693
[02:00] <quaal> does anyone use syslog-ng
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_DVD_playback_capability
[02:00] <IndyGunFreak> that links you right to the instructions
so I want to try it now, whatever you tell me.
[02:00] <sanityx> kelsin, How come I only see two modules listed in that file? Aren't there tons that run at boot by default?
[02:01] <kelsin> arooni: just use synaptic in gnome
[02:01] <islan> redhat_, check your PM
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> techie: its no prob, i can help you with it real fast. its not hard
[02:01] <arrenlex> duncan_: Follow this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI#head-99489608eb537a1a0346cdd3ad34209d7887714a
[02:01] <arooni> kelsin: i need subversion 1.40
[02:01] <kelsin> sanityx: yes, but that's the place for ones you want to add, I'm not 100% positive on where the others are listed
[02:01] <kelsin> arooni: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[02:01] <redhat_> islan what pm?
 yeap I put those instruction in terminal this morning and then retried and it did not work
[02:01] <kelsin> arooni: my mistake edgy only has 1.3
[02:01] <arrenlex> duncan_: If it still doesn't work after that guide, then come back, we'll try and help :)
[02:01] <IndyGunFreak> techie: then you need to enable the repositories at the top of the page.
[02:01] <islan> redhat_, I just opened a dialog window with you
[02:02] <kelsin> arooni: sorry, good luck
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> techie: hang on a sec
[02:02] <islan> redhat_, should be in the tabs of your IRC client
do yo have a pm or can we talk there so i can follow your instructions.
[02:02] <inpho> is there a way to get my usb external drive to detect in ubuntu? the removable media doesnt find it
[02:02] <IndyGunFreak> techie: you can pm me here, thats fine, or if you want to send me an IM, thats fine to.

[02:04] <inpho> Odd_Bloke:  it would show up as a "usbsomething" right?
[02:04] <kelsin> riqz: if you right click the little handle on the left wide of the window list I think you can access some options that might let you set the minimum and maximum size of the window buttons

[02:07] <kelsin> CaptWho: what program is this and do you know what it means by C directory?
[02:07] <Odd_Bloke> inpho: Strange. I'm not really that familiar with external HDDs, so finding someone more experienced is probably a good idea...

[02:10] <ubotu> CaptWho: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[02:10] <CaptWho> actually, it's looking for the precompiler
[02:10] <TridenT_Boy3555> I feel like I am just someone typing away in a chatroom that ignores me
[02:10] <techie> IndyGunFreak xchat 2.6.6
[02:10] <islan> redhat_, mkdir /var/www/folder1 should do
[02:10] <Megatron1> anyone?

[02:11] <islan> redhat_, try sudo mkdir /var/www/folder1
[02:11] <Nameeater> so you've tried linux dc++? I thought that looked one of the better ones
[02:11] <Errpast1> CUPS 1.2 keeps prompting me for credentials.  It won't accept ANY, even root.
[02:11] <rcmiv> Flannel, oy, sorry, alright thx
