[19:07] <cmp> please tell me what to do then and go
[19:07] <SockPants> i've got a very strange problem. the hardware drivers thingy (jockey-gtk) doestn work, and when i run it from a terminal it seems to endlessly-loop something in python until it reaches 'maximum recursion depth', how can i manage my nvidia driver otherwise?
[19:07] <cmp> guntbert, just tell me what to do after i opened it
[19:07] <cmp> halitech, how can i unlock my keyring - i want to cancel it
[19:07] <Beefcaked> is it common to have to compile a driver?
[19:07] <tyler_d_> where is the command "which java" read from? I know echo $JAVA_HOME is from bash_rc or bash_profile..... ??
[19:08] <grawity> tyler_d_: 'which java' only checks $PATH
[19:08] <Halitech> cmp, try this info http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=6678200&postcount=5
[19:09] <__theIdiotBox> tyler_d_, from $PATH onle
[19:09] <sebsebseb> Halitech alien    Can you maybe help  Beefcaked   I looked at the links,  but like him,  I don't exactly understand it
[19:09] <tyler_d_> where other then $HOME/.bashrc is this set?
[19:09] <sebsebseb> Halitech alien   The forum links
[19:10] <tyler_d_> ie. PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH:$HOME/bin ???
[19:10] <SockPants> why does nothing ever work in linux
[19:10] <Halitech> sebsebseb, if he can post them back to me but no promises
[19:10] <__theIdiotBox> SockPants, due to your lack of knowledge on the thing thats not working
[19:10] <cmp> halitech, i dont understand any thing from the link you gave me - can you understand it ?  if so , then please explain to me in easier way .
[19:11] <sebsebseb> Halitech: remember he is rather new to  Linux/Ubuntu as well
[19:11] <Halitech> cmp, its all point and click on the desktop
[19:11] <SockPants> __theIdiotBox: i don't know about anything in other OSs and they don't randomly stop working whenever a minor thing changes as much
[19:11] <Beefcaked> Halitech: its http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=821343 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1162190&highlight=05ca%3A1839+Ricoh
[19:11] <SockPants> this is what i get when i run 'jockey-gtk': http://sockpants.pastebay.org/51371
[19:12] <cmp> halitech, why you made it more difficult - ??????
[19:12] <SockPants> how can i turn off my nvidia graphics driver so i can install a different version
[19:12] <__theIdiotBox> SockPants, one suggestion: you should at least learn to use other OSs ...though you can keep using *nix fulltime...
[19:12] <cmp> halitech, i asked for more easy explainatoin
[19:13] <hendrixski> how can I install mysql so that it DOESN'T start on startup?
[19:13] <Pici> SockPants: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[19:13] <sebsebseb> cmp: the people here are volunters,   and no one knows everything to do with Ubuntu
[19:13] <zealiod> how can configure a preseed file to automatically set the partition size of an lvm installation... I have read many wikis and such, and have supressed every choice/confirmation except the new partition size.... any ideas?
[19:13] <amleth> y
[19:13] <SockPants> __theIdiotBox: what do you mean? i can survive on windows and mac ... but i want to get ubuntu to work on my new laptop so i don't have to put up with vista all the time
[19:13] <__theIdiotBox> hendrixski, install it the usual it but then remove it from being autostarted by disabaling for say run level 5
[19:13] <MoCKeR> hola, alguien habla en español?
[19:14] <sebsebseb> !es |  MoCKeR
[19:14] <cmp> sebsebseb: i didnt object - i just wanted to have clear answer to guide me to the right way
[19:14] <Melbjase23> SockPants: Do you know your card model?
[19:14] <__theIdiotBox> SockPants, then what you said in the begining was wrong " i don't know about anything in other OSs"
[19:14] <Pici> __theIdiotBox: The Ubuntu runlevels work differently than other distros.  hendrixski: use sudo update-rc.d mysql remove  to stop it from running on boot
[19:14] <sebsebseb> cmp: ok,  repeate   the issue, and maybe I can help a bit
[19:14] <Pici> !runlevel | __theIdiotBox fyi
[19:15] <SockPants> __theIdiotBox: stop making abstract assumptions about my knowledge and either help me fix this or jsut don't
[19:15] <hendrixski> Pici, ah, so the update-rc.d command is what controls the runlevels?
[19:15] <hendrixski> because those always confused the bejesus out of me
[19:15] <SockPants> Melbjase23: yeah, nVidia Quadro FX 770M, running 180.44, trying to install 180.60
[19:15] <__theIdiotBox> Pici, yep...once he gets the poing its good enough....thanks for reminding....
[19:15] <Pici> hendrixski: Well its not runlevels, but they do control what starts when you boot
[19:15] <thahauss> SockPants, lawl
[19:15] <Pici> SockPants: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[19:16] <SockPants> Pici: 9

[19:16] <Pici> SockPants: 9.04?
[19:16] <__theIdiotBox> SockPants, "thats what your msg conveyed" ...not my guess1
[19:16] <SockPants> Pici: yeah, the latest one, i downloaded it 3 days ago
[19:16] <hendrixski> Pici, right, see I don't even know the difference.  So i just apt-get install like normal and then run update-rc.d remove
[19:16] <hendrixski> thanks :-D
[19:16] <Pici> hendrixski: Yep
[19:16] <thahauss> SockPants, dont rage bro these guys are tryin to help you!

[19:19] <datacrusher> anyone knows wich version of grub is on ubuntu 9?
[19:20] <Melbjase23> SockPants: have you tried installing  envyng-gtk ?
[19:20] <growthmetal> I'm having a hard time getting ubuntu to recognize my wireless card
[19:20] <cellofellow> datacrusher: grub 1
[19:20] <__theIdiotBox> datacrusher, its grub (GNU GRUB 0.97) on 9.04
[19:20] <SockPants> Melbjase23: no i havent
[19:20] <cellofellow> datacrusher: grub2 is on the upcoming 9.10.
[19:20] <Pici> SockPants: Was this a new install or an upgrade from a previous release?
[19:20] <growthmetal> I've accessed the internet wirelessly using vista, but when I run lspci on ubuntu, I don't see anything that looks like a wireless card
[19:20] <SockPants> Pici: new fresh
[19:21] <Halitech> cmp, I don't use gnome so I don't know what else to tell you, but the instructions are for doing it in a gui so you just need to click where it tells you to click
[19:21] <SockPants> Melbjase23: i now have envyng-gtk installed. what do i do?
[19:21] <growthmetal> also, when I right-click on the network icon near the top right corner of the screen, there's no option for "enable wireless"
[19:21] <Beefcaked> Halitech: did you get the links?
[19:21] <groobu> hey guys, ive just installed the latest version of ubuntu 9.04 and am having trouble configuring my wireless card. i have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff#Step%201:%20All%20BCM43xx%20-%20Install%20NDISWrapper%20and%20Blacklist%20Native%20Driver
[19:21] <Melbjase23> SockPants: go in synaptics and search for the program and install it.
[19:21] <groobu> card is a bcm4318 rev2
[19:21] <SockPants> Melbjase23: ive done that
[19:22] <Halitech> Beefcaked, got the links up, which one are you trying to follow (sorry, my sons bus got home and I had to go get him)
[19:22] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: If your using a laptop its probably a usb device, try lsusb
[19:22] <groobu> when i do a lshw -C network
[19:22] <SockPants> Melbjase23: ah, its uninstalling the driver now (or should be)
[19:22] <cmp> halitech, it tells me something which i dont have - there is a page - i dont see at all while iam following the steps over there
[19:22] <groobu> i can see that the devices are there, but the entry for the bcm4318 has no logical name assigned
[19:22] <growthmetal> Thingymebob: I've got a bunch of lines that look like Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

[19:23] <cherva> can someone tell me a nice program to configure a device over com port/rs232 ?
[19:23] <Halitech> cmp, what is it saying that you don't have?

[19:24] <S0ckPants> Ubuntu is now running in low-graphics mode
[19:24] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: ok looking
[19:24] <Beefcaked> Halitech: well for starters i dont know where he got the driver he said he hsa
[19:25] <groobu> anyone.?
[19:25] <lenswipe> Halitech, remember i said it was 800x600?
[19:25] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, was wondering that myself
[19:25] <Halitech> lenswipe, yes
[19:25] <sebsebseb> !anyone |  groobu
[19:25] <mimor> lo all
[19:25] <lenswipe> Halitech, its not even that - its 640x480
[19:25] <Halitech> lenswipe, even after hooking up the larger monitor and rebooting?
[19:25] <lenswipe> Halitech, and even after reboot if i go into the screen resolution thing thats the only option on the list
[19:25] <groobu> lol i posted all my outputs above
[19:25] <Halitech> lenswipe, what video card?
[19:25] <mimor> Is it possible to list dns servers int /etc/networking/interfaces?
[19:26] <Beefcaked> Halitech: but through other people i have managed to grab ricoh-webcam-r5u870-2.6.20-16-generic_0.10.0-3_i386.deb and r5u87x-881.tar.gz
[19:26] <groobu> is there a way i can reassign logical device names for the networking devices?
[19:26] <lenswipe> Halitech, idk some inbuilt intel thing i think - its using the vesa driver...
[19:26] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: pastebin sudo lshw
[19:26] <Beefcaked> Halitech: thing is... the deb doesnt install too well
[19:26] <groobu> cuz lshw -C is showing that the bcm4318 driver is present but does not have a logical device name assigned so therefore it cannot be referenced
[19:26] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: & lspci for me
[19:26] <groobu> i would assume something like /etc/network/interfaces but am unsure
[19:26] <Halitech> Beefcaked, what happens when you try to install the deb?

[19:39] <Beefcaked> Halitech: does that mean its not going to work for my kernel version? :(
[19:39] <devkhadka> sebsebseb: i dont have any  backup too
[19:39] <growthmetal> Royall_: rm -r has screwed me over a few times; I recommend you move it to your trash directory and delete it later
[19:39] <Halitech> lenswipe, blank
[19:39] <lenswipe> Halitech, ok
[19:39] <Halitech> Beefcaked, don't think so
[19:39] <lenswipe> Halitech, ok that would seem to be it done what now?
[19:39] <pradeep> u
[19:39] <Beefcaked> Halitech: i see, is there any other way to get this working?
[19:40] <sebsebseb> devkhadka: why not just use Ubuntu's Grub?
[19:40] <guntbert> !webmin | bogie, pradeep
[19:40] <devkhadka> sebsebseb: can i reover it  ... is there any way
[19:40] <growthmetal> Royall_: Your trash directory should be in ~/.local/share/Trash/files/
[19:40] <thiebaude> growthmetal, thats one command i stay away from
[19:40] <devkhadka> seb

[19:40] <jamiejackson1> does anyone know how to generate a crc32 checksum in linux?
[19:40] <devkhadka> sebsebseb: would it b okei if i recover ubuntu grub
[19:40] <sebsebseb> devkhadka: /boot has the kernels and  so on
[19:40] <guntbert> cmp: did you set "no password" for the key ring?
[19:40] <zoii> hhyy
[19:40] <lenswipe> Halitech, doi restart xorg or something?
[19:41] <growthmetal> thiebaude: I don't blame you.  I actually wrote a short python script called trash that would move things to my trash directory for me
[19:41] <Halitech> lenswipe, yeah, restart x
[19:41] <sebsebseb> devkhadka: what can or can't you boot up at the moment?
[19:41] <lenswipe> Halitech, do i just type "restart x?"
[19:41] <lenswipe> without the ? obviously
[19:41] <cmp> nothing changed  guntbert
[19:41] <cmp> still iam reciving the keyring window gunbert

[19:42] <lenswipe> Halitech, i cant use startx cos it gives me a fatal error telling me its already running...
[19:42] <lenswipe> Halitech, stopx first?
[19:42] <sebsebseb> lenswipe: logging out  of the Ubuntu account   restarts  X as well or does it hmm
[19:42] <Halitech> lenswipe, ctrl + alt + f7
[19:42] <lenswipe> Halitech, ok
[19:42] <devkhadka> cant i use same /boot partition for diffenet distro
[19:42] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, let me check a few things here
[19:43] <sebsebseb> devkhadka: I think  you can
[19:43] <lenswipe> Halitech, doesnt seem to work - im doing this over VNC and ssh
[19:43] <sebsebseb> devkhadka: or at least the same Grub hmm
[19:43] <growthmetal> thiebaude: http://pastebin.com/m66f743c8
[19:43] <thiebaude> ok
[19:43] <growthmetal> you
[19:43] <growthmetal> you'll need to modify the $TRASH environment variable with the location of your trash
[19:43] <devkhadka> sebsebseb: can u provide me any resources or link
[19:43] <growthmetal> or alternatively put it in a file called trash.txt in /usr/local/bin
[19:43] <sebsebseb> devkhadka: what you have done  I don't really know much about,  but  it's not exactly distro specific, so you could give ##linux a try
[19:43] <anqee|home> is there an application that fully supports exchange for Ubuntu or any other dists? I'm thinking to let go of M$ for Ubuntu at the office!
[19:43] <growthmetal> there might be problems that I haven't worked out
[19:44] <thiebaude> ok, i'll do that
[19:44] <guntbert> devkhadka: you *can* use almost everything - but please expect support from ubuntu - why do you want to do that?
[19:44] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: looks like a hacks needed to get the led to work have you tried scanning b4 and after pressing the button
[19:44] <growthmetal> Thingymebob: scanning b4?
[19:44] <cmp> ok guntbert, now the keyring gone - so still there is the issue about the mobile modem . i get always Msg which says ,   ok i will paste it to you now

[19:45] <growthmetal> Thingymebob: what is the command to scan?
[19:45] <devkhadka> guntbert: i accidently replaced the /boot partition of ubuntu with /boot of fedora
[19:45] <lenswipe> Halitech, i just got a black screen O_o any ideas?
[19:45] <growthmetal> Thingymebob: no "enable wireless" option appears in the menu
[19:45] <devkhadka> guntbert: it was a mistake
[19:45] <thowland> cherva: it's been a while since I played with it, but I believe that means you aren't connected- the man page will be a more reliable guide at this point
[19:45] <lenswipe> Halitech, no errors, nothing - just black
[19:46] <cmp> tell me the site to paste for you the picture guntbert
[19:46] <guntbert> devkhadka: I suppose :-) sorry no help from me just now - good luck
[19:46] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: Do you have the option to install Athereos drivers at any point in the system>administration>Hardware drivers menu, Again try before and after pressing the button

[19:50] <pete3> thx

[19:51] <marko-_-> did ubuntu came up with the notification bubbles?

[19:51] <sebsebseb> marko-_-: no
[19:51] <guntbert> cmp: ah *that* is the password/PIN you have to give so that vodafone accepts you - you should have got that that from vodafone

[19:51] <Pici> lenswipe: Please stop repeating, they're not responding so its pretty clear that they're not here.
[19:51] <marko-_-> sebastien, ok, thanks
[19:52] <lenswipe> Pici, well he started helping me to get my Xorg to a larger resolution, and now its a black screen and it wont let me stop xorg so i dont know what im sposed to do...
[19:52] <lenswipe> Pici, unless you have any ideas?
[19:52] <groobu> im curious as to how Ndiswrapper can detect that the hardware is present, driver is present, yet it has not assigned my wifi device with  wlan* device number and is unable to see any of the networks
[19:52] <guntbert> cmp: and probably the key ring will store that for you, so yo will have to enter it only once
[19:52] <groobu> ive followed god knows how many tutorials
[19:52] <groobu> done a clean install
[19:53] <Pici> lenswipe: Just start from that and let the rest of the channel help you.
[19:53] <marko-_-> sebastien, http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/253 i mean this
[19:53] <lenswipe> Pici, start from what?
[19:53] <groobu> anyone here got a bcm4318 chipset wifi card by chance?

[19:53] <cmp> guntbert - have you got the pic?
[19:54] <sebsebseb> marko-_-: not been on the link yet, but what your asking is also off topic try #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:54] <lenswipe> Halitech, im doing this over VNC or i was until Xorg killed the vnc link too...
[19:54] <mweichert> when a device fails in an mdadm created array, what happens when you replace the failed drive? do things just automatically start rebuilding or do you have to do something manually?
[19:54] <lenswipe> Halitech, i can try it local if you want... sec
[19:54] <guntbert> cmp: yes, and I answered already some minutes ago :-)
[19:55] <lenswipe> Halitech, im sshed into the machine and i typed startx and it gave me a fatal error but it wont let me abort the command with ctrl + c
[19:55] <guntbert> lenswipe, Halitech: startx won't work via ssh
[19:55] <DASPRiD> hi there, i've got a dedicated server running ubuntu 8.04, and all of a sudden since yesterday, port 80 is filtered (i can't access lighttpd anymore, nor running a netcat on port 80 (tho on 81 or any other)). neither iptables lists port 80 nor is ufw enabled, any ideas?
[19:56] <Halitech> Beefcaked,  vnc requires x to be working ... ssh doesn't work with x ... can you reboot it?
[19:56] <pete3> intel 82825G\gl ..is that my video card..if so where do I get the drivers?.....
[19:56] <lenswipe> gunbert: i re-directed the command to :0

[19:56] <Beefcaked> Halitech: i think you got the wrong guy hehe
[19:56] <growthmetal> Thingymebob: I don't know anything about bios
[19:56] <lenswipe> guntbert, i used the command export DISPLAY=:0 to run the command on the local display..
[19:56] <thiebaude> i know about those regression problmes
[19:56] <SockPants> hi hey anyone here feel like helping me with a specific virtualbox problem even though this is #ubuntu?

[19:57] <Halitech> Beefcaked, I'm still trying to figure out these instructions for your cam
[19:57] <lenswipe> Halitech, , i used the command export DISPLAY=:0 to run the command on the local display..
[19:57] <sebsebseb> thiebaude: oh that's what you were doing  yesterday or whenever it was?
[19:57] <cmp> guntbert, i called Vodafone already and they answered me - NO PASS WORD needed  :(

[19:57] <thiebaude> sebsebseb, after i installed 9.04 i forgot to edit xorg.conf
[19:57] <guntbert> lenswipe: still startx will not work AFAIK, try with simple apps for a starter (try xeyes)
[19:58] <frakturfreak> why is there only tex-live 2007 available in the package-archives?
[19:58] <lenswipe> guntbert, huh? how can i try xeyes if x isnt running?
[19:58] <thiebaude> sebsebseb, then half way through the updates my mouse froze

[19:59] <cmp> it comes back again guntbert
[19:59] <Halitech> lenswipe, yeah, see what that does
[19:59] <jacekowski> kj23: you need nvidia drivers
[19:59] <lenswipe> Halitech, ok
[19:59] <guntbert> lenswipe: remotely you won't see anything that is displayed on the local display
[19:59] <Pici> kj23: It can work with open source drivers just fine
[19:59] <Slart> kj23: you'll need drivers with 3d support.. which I'm not sure if the open source ones have
[19:59] <jacekowski> kj23: to be honest
[19:59] <lenswipe> guntbert, right.
[19:59] <ubuntu> hi_
[19:59] <jacekowski> kj23: all other drivers are just shi*
[19:59] <thiebaude> pete3, have you tried to edit your xorg.conf?
[19:59] <guntbert> cmp: sorry, the I don't know - please ask the channel again
[19:59] <kj23> im getting 4 different answers :-$
[19:59] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, I *think* I understand it ... open a terminal and run sudo apt-get mercurial
[19:59] <ubuntu> how can i make permanent a live usb ubuntu 9.04 installation
[20:00] <sebsebseb> !usb | ubuntu
[20:00] <pete3> thie...ya no....2 noob lol....reading somthing now
[20:00] <kj23> so jace are you saying to use fglrx or open source?
[20:00] <CuckooForCaca><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:01] <Pici> kj23: You need a driver that supports hardware acceleration, it doesnt matter if its open source or not.
[20:01] <DASPRiD> hi there, i've got a dedicated server running ubuntu 8.04, and all of a sudden since yesterday, port 80 is filtered (i can't access lighttpd anymore, nor running a netcat on port 80 (tho on 81 or any other)). neither iptables lists port 80 nor is ufw enabled, any ideas?
[20:01] <cmp> any idea sebsebseb?
[20:01] <lenswipe> Halitech, ok rebooted still a black screen...
[20:01] <sebsebseb> cmp: just do what the page said?
[20:01] <Halitech> lenswipe, are you local now?
[20:01] <lenswipe> Halitech, oh wait no
[20:01] <kj23> hm... when i open EnvyNG it says theres no compatible drivers
[20:01] <guntbert> lenswipe: I didn't follow your discussion - that was just a "quick step in" - I think Halitech is on his way with you - so I shall not "take over" - feel free to ask me though
[20:01] <lenswipe> Halitech, i got proper reso now :D
[20:02] <lenswipe> Halitech, thanks
[20:02] <Halitech> lenswipe, 1024x768 now?
[20:02] <lenswipe> Halitech, idk - whatever it is its better than 640x480
[20:02] <Halitech> guntbert, no wories, sometimes I run out of ideas
[20:02] <lenswipe> Halitech, which is possible to tell by the fact that the menus actually can fit onto the screen haha
[20:03] <lenswipe> Halitech, i think my teeth are maybe a few cm shorter than they were...
[20:03] <Halitech> lenswipe, chances are 1024x768 then, I find 800x600 too small for most menus
[20:03] <lenswipe> Halitech, lol 800x600 is too small for everything - seriously why would you use 800x600 or 640x480?
[20:03] <Halitech> lenswipe, I had a full head of hair 3 years ago when I started, now I'm almost bald 8|
[20:03] <lenswipe> Halitech, thats what xorg does to you
[20:04] <Halitech> lenswipe, had a laptop that would only do 800x600
[20:04] <lenswipe> holy crap
[20:04] <lenswipe> one word
[20:04] <lenswipe> bin
[20:04] <sebsebseb> lenswipe: yeah xorg can be a right pain

[20:04] <Halitech> lenswipe, worked good for doing quick things on a service call or the kids watching movies in the car
[20:05] <lenswipe> Halitech, i guess...
[20:05] <pertheus> cant  access the group i've created in my  ubunto server from client win xp
[20:05] <lenswipe> Halitech, i think maybe my scientific calculator for maths could do better than 800x600
[20:05] <Flannel> lenswipe: Please be helpful
[20:05] <adrian_2002ca> hi all, im having a problem with a p1005 printer in jaunty
[20:05] <h4f1> What graphics libraries are available to use to draw basic shapes (c++)
[20:05] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: When you switch on your machine you need to tap F2 to enter the Bios, in there look for something that looks like it will turn on your wireless when you switch on, save the settings and restart.
[20:05] <lenswipe> Flannel, sorry!
[20:05] <cmp> i did and i finished it - any idea about how to get my mobile modem work  sebsebseb ?

[20:07] <pertheus> i've seted up the folder on smb.conf  through swat and when i try access on xp client i got a message "denied access"
[20:08] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: If you change something and can't remember what it originally was set to just exit without saving changes, Restore System defaults should always get your system back on if you really don't know what you've changed. Just take real care in there
[20:08] <leaf-sheep> causasui: Change the time in BIO too. :)
[20:08] <growthmetal> Thingymebob: would it be a good idea to back up my files first?
[20:08] <Beefcaked> Halitech: E: Invalid operation mercurial
[20:08] <Halitech> growthmetal, always a goog idea to backup
[20:08] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: Always is, although its unlikely you'll screw anything that badly
[20:09] <Halitech> Beefcaked, sudo apt-get install mercurial
[20:09] <Pici> Beefcaked: sudo apt-get install mercurial
[20:09] <guntbert> causasui: wait, if you are on jaunty you better go to system/administration/time and date...

[20:09] <ralphschindler> hi all, i am running ubuntu in parallels, and the display driver is not resizing when resize the window.  I guess thats a parallels issue, but i would like to at least set the display size to be more than 1024x768, where do i set this?
[20:10] <guntbert> ralphschindler: try system/preferences/display
[20:10] <sebsebseb> ralphschindler: look in the system > administration > prerferences or administration menu
[20:10] <DASPRiD> ralphschindler, ohi ;)
[20:10] <causasui> guntbert, funny, I may have found a bug but I'm not 100% sure...
[20:10] <ralphschindler> ha, hey DASPRiD
[20:11] <orudie> how do i extract a .tar file ?
[20:11] <guntbert> causasui: what is the matter?
[20:11] <sebsebseb> !tar |  orudie
[20:11] <Halitech> orudie, right click - extract here
[20:11] <ralphschindler> guntbert, sebsebseb the display is a "Monitor: unknown"
[20:11] <adrian_2002ca> im having problems with my p1005 printer, anyone care to help>?
[20:11] <orudie> in command line that is guyes
[20:11] <sebsebseb> !cups |  adrian_2002ca
[20:12] <causasui> guntbert, I had already set the time zone as the instructions on the page you linked described, and that is what showed up in the settings as my location: Los Angeles. But I kept getting eastern time. Even in administration->Time an date it showed up, but only when I unlocked the time and date settings, now it has set my system time to the correct time
[20:12] <sebsebseb> orudie: tar.gz or tar?
[20:12] <orudie> sebsebseb-> tar
[20:12] <Halitech> adrian_2002ca, who makes it?
[20:13] <sebsebseb> orudie: tar -xf FILENAMEGOESHERE
[20:13] <adrian_2002ca> Halitech: HP, its the p1005
[20:13] <Beefcaked> Halitech:  done
[20:13] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, now mkdir ~/r5u870
[20:13] <Beefcaked> Halitech: its in the desktop, should I cd first?
[20:13] <sebsebseb> orudie:  tar xvf path-to-tar.tar.gz
[20:13] <guntbert> causasui: I guess you *have* to do it "as root" (so the "unlock") because time settings are not a user thing
[20:13] <sebsebseb> orudie: cd into the folder and run the command that will do it
[20:13] <iive> hello, i'm having problem installing ubuntu server 9.04 on hpt370 controller, it seems like the pata_htp37x module is not compiled at all, i do see 366/8 and 3x7n probes. any helpful links?
[20:13] <David-T> can anyone tell me what clicking 'Report a problem...' runs to add 'Package' info, etc, to a /var/crash/*.crash report so that apport-retrace will work?
[20:14] <sebsebseb> orudie: they can even be extracted graphicalley
[20:14] <causasui> guntbert, right, but at no point was that explained to the user (me), and in fact it looked as if I had successfully set the new time zone with no error messages
[20:14] <Halitech> Beefcaked, sure
[20:14] <lenswipe> Halitech, its not 1024x768 its up to 1280x1024 - whooo! tyvm
[20:14] <Lostinspace_46> I am remapping my keyboard with xmodmap and xbindkeys. While they work together, they look at modifiers differently. Do they work together but run independantly?
[20:14] <Halitech> lenswipe, nice!
[20:14] <Beefcaked> Halitech: alright done
[20:15] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, mkdir r5u870
[20:15]  * David-T discovers apport-cli does something vaugely along the right lines
[20:15] <Beefcaked> Halitech:  yeah
[20:15] <Halitech> Beefcaked, then cd r5u870
[20:15] <guntbert> causasui: I see your point, but I don't think they will fix that in jaunty - thanks for the heads up though
[20:15] <Beefcaked> Halitech: got it
[20:15] <beinghuman> anyone know how I could remap my splashtop button to boot up ubuntu?
[20:15] <causasui> guntbert,  I don't expect it to be fixed in jaunty, but is it a problem in karmic?
[20:16] <Halitech> Beefcaked, now can you move and extract the tar file into that folder
[20:16] <guntbert> causasui: I'm going to look at it right now :-) (in my VM)
[20:17] <Halitech> adrian_2002ca, check here http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=HP-LaserJet_P1005
[20:17] <Beefcaked> Halitech:  ok i extracted it using the file manager
[20:17] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, and its in the r5u780 folder?
[20:17] <Beefcaked> yes it is
[20:17] <zebaztian> hey i'm having trouble pasting a file from flashdrive to a folder, when i paste it, the folder says it already was pasted the original time, yet it doesn't show up, no icon shows up, how can i fix this?
[20:17] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, cd r5u870
[20:18] <Beefcaked> Halitech:  im there
[20:18] <Halitech> Beefcaked, then make (or sudo make if it gives an error)

[20:19] <jerry_> to fast  , can not read
[20:19] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, cd into that folder and then run sudo make
[20:20] <JohannesSM64> make doesn't have to be sudoed
[20:20] <JohannesSM64> only make install
[20:20] <Beefcaked> Halitech: both make and sudo make fail
[20:20] <Halitech> Beefcaked, with what error?
[20:20] <Beefcaked> lots..
[20:20] <jerry_> I have a Epson R220 printer , can not find a driver to run it under ubuntu
[20:20] <dbbolton> how do i configure my wireless with iwconfig when the wep passphrase is not hexadecimal?
[20:20] <Inf_lappy_> has anyone gotten a canon ip2200 printer driver to work? my winxp desktop has a canon Pixma 1600 and i read somewhere that the ip2200 driver works for it, but there doesn't seem to be a package for it anywhere (note to self: never buy stuff from canon again. ever.)
[20:21] <sebsebseb> !cups |  jerry_
[20:21] <Halitech> Beefcaked, ok, run sudo apt-get install build-essential
[20:21] <Beefcaked> Halitech: btw i issued make and sudo make not make install
[20:21] <MoeGreen> why is my dual monitor setup not saving when i shutdown and restart? How can i fix that setting?

[20:22] <miguelonnnn> hi
[20:22] <Mka> hi
[20:23] <sebsebseb> !tab |  jerry_
[20:23] <miguelonnnn> please 1 fast question, do ubuntu iso's have hradilnked files?
[20:23] <miguelonnnn> i'm going to make a cp of the files in it, and cp warns me it won't copy hardlinked files
[20:23] <miguelonnnn> i mean, it wont copy them as hardlinked
[20:24] <miguelonnnn> please answer
[20:24] <sebsebseb> Halitech: I assume you can help him with his printer
[20:24] <Halitech> Inf_lappy_, http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-iP_2200
[20:24] <h3liix> mount the iso, extract the files then copy
[20:24] <korrigan> bye :)
[20:24] <sebsebseb> Halitech: oh two of them even
[20:24] <Halitech> sebsebseb, I'm just linking to openprinting
[20:24] <Halitech> Inf_lappy_, sebsebseb printer is a paperweight
[20:25] <sebsebseb> Halitech: uh?
[20:25] <guntbert> dbbolton: I assume on the access point you configured something like "aVerySecurePassphrase"
[20:25] <Halitech> the canon ip2200 won't work
[20:26] <dbbolton> guntbert, yes, a wep passphrase
[20:26] <elinux> estou tendo problema com o mkisofs, depois que gero a imagem e dou boot, ele para no carregamento do initramfs,  algum tem a solução
[20:26] <sebsebseb> Inf_lappy_: it probably will however in a Windows virtual machine
[20:26] <pacopil> online boxing game http://www.kobox.org/kobox-fande-Nourine.html
[20:26] <erUSUL> !br | elinux
[20:26] <etyrnal> is it possible to move a live running non-virtual machine into a virtual environment with zero-to-minimal downtime
[20:27] <elinux> ok
[20:27] <Inf_lappy_> sebastien, well of course it will. because of windows printer driver sharing
[20:27] <sebsebseb> jerry_: you reading links the bot gave?
[20:28] <Supersaiyan_IV> dbbolton, http://software.canon-europe.com/products/0010231.asp choose linux, and download
[20:28] <Halitech> Inf_lappy_, only if you go with the virtual box from Sun and not the one from the repo, no usb support in the repo version
[20:29] <jerry_> copy and pasting to do later
[20:29] <sebsebseb> Halitech: yeah or  VMware or something that has  USB support
[20:29] <guntbert> dbbolton: in networkmanager: edit connections, choose your one, select edit, tab "wireless security", at "security" select web 128bit passphrase, then enter it (select "show key" to see what you are typing)
[20:29] <bernardo> hey, could anyone help me about compiling stuff?
[20:29] <guntbert> !compile | bernardo
[20:30] <bernardo> I'm trying to a link library, but I don't want it to link the usr/lib/ folder because I do not have access to do that, how can I make it look on it's own directory?
[20:30] <sebsebseb> jerry_: ok
[20:30] <iive> hello, i'm having problem installing ubuntu server 9.04 on hpt370 controller, it seems like the pata_htp37x module is not compiled at all, i do see 366/8 and 3x7n probes. any helpful links?
[20:31] <arand> Inf_lappy_: do you have the cups-driver-gutenprint package installed?
[20:31] <dbbolton> guntbert i'm talking about using iwconfig from a tty console
[20:31] <Inf_lappy_> arand, yes.
[20:31] <del_diablo> Hello. What is the name and location of the file controlling connections(as in dhcp and all that)? I got some troubles connecting to a hotspot at school(requires connecting to the network then a authentic in the browser). Wicd refuses apparently just because it waits for getting an IP.
[20:32] <sheffne> Hello can I ask a question?
[20:32] <thiebaude> sheffne: yes
[20:32] <Inf_lappy_> some searching around on canon's website got me this: http://software.canon-europe.com/software/0024301.asp?model= -- but that's a collection of .rpm files and i'm not sure if alien likes them
[20:32] <Slart> just ask, sheffne
[20:32] <guntbert> dbbolton: ah - and why didn't you say so? :-), I don't know right now but I'll search
[20:32] <arand> And you have looked through the ubuntu wiki instructions?
[20:32] <EagleScreen> Can I delete an item in about:config list of Firefox?
[20:32] <Inf_lappy_> they are for redhat9 and suse9 - those are pretty much ancient by now
[20:32] <Analkrut> I could use some help please, Im running ubuntu 7.1, and in my package manager it says that only 1132 packages are listed, but I know that there are more than that available, but I can't find how to show them all, so how do I?
[20:32] <sheffne> So i have a graphics disaster with my ubuntu, when the comp loads just before I see desktop I get a bunch of lines and squares
[20:33] <dbbolton> guntbert i did say so: (03:19:20 PM) dbbolton: how do i configure my wireless with iwconfig when the wep passphrase is not hexadecimal?
[20:33] <rakesh> hello everybody......when i am uploading my resume to timesjob it shows an error that u can upload only doc,docx,html,htm,txt file but my rscore card is in pdf form....so how cn i upload my scorecard....is there any soln
[20:33] <thiebaude> sheffne: what graphics card do you have?
[20:33] <sebsebseb> !7.10 |  Analkrut
[20:33] <dbbolton> guntbert i just read in the man page that passphrase isn't supported
[20:33] <growthmetal> Thingymebob: it didn't work...  There was something about a network adapter in the bios.  Although I turned it on nothing seems to have been changed
[20:33] <sheffne> Thiebaude: Radeon 9600
[20:33] <Slart> rakesh: seems like a question you need to ask the timesjob people
[20:33] <thiebaude> ok
[20:33] <jerry_> sebsebseb , i'M GOING TO DO SOME READING , IF YOU YOU OF OTHER LINKS , CAN I GIVE AN EMAIL ADDRESS HERE ?
[20:34] <thiebaude> !caps
[20:34] <sebsebseb> jerry_: the bit in the middle didn't make sense
[20:34] <rakesh> slart......is there way to convert pdf file to doc file
[20:34] <Slart> rakesh: you could perhaps export your pdf to plain text.. but it won't be nice looking any more.. or rewrite it in openoffice and save as docx/doc
[20:34] <sebsebseb> jerry_: also  you might not want to give out your email address in this channal, since it's publically logged
[20:34] <wojtek0490> Hi all
[20:34] <thiebaude> jerry_: the email idea is a bad idea
[20:35] <guntbert> dbbolton: sorry, I overlooked that - but you should be able to see the hex converted passkey even on the AP interface
[20:35] <Thingymebob> growthmetal: Sorry, I'm stumped, you may want to have a look through the forums or post a question there. There will be an answer, I just don't have it
[20:35] <Slart> rakesh: I don't think there is anything that does a good job of it, unfortunately.. perhaps there is a pdf to html converter.. perhaps
[20:35] <jerry_> Can I give an email address here ?
[20:35] <nikin> Hy. iam looking for an easyto use solution for trafic shaping to the internet. The main thing is to limit the internet bandwidth ued by my computer.

[20:36] <Analkrut> ubottu | So there isn't any way for me to get any other packages then the ones displayed?
[20:36] <Beefcaked> oh no halitech left :(
[20:36] <lenswipe> del_diablo, period* :)
[20:36] <sebsebseb> jerry_: private mesage, you can probably just click on  the name of someone and it will open one with them,  depending on your IRC client
[20:36] <Slart> wasutton3: not sure if any of the big ones have linux versions.. autocad?
[20:36] <iive> wasutton3: blender3d
[20:36] <lenswipe> Beefcaked, yup - i was needing him too :(
[20:36] <wasutton3> Slart: i dont think autocad has one
[20:36] <Slart> iive: blender? professional level 3d cad?
[20:36] <nikin> live: thats no cad :S
[20:37] <wojtek0490> I've got problem I can't create password protected archive using file-roller. I don't have even a choice to do this...See it AUTHORS file-roller is written by Paolo Bacchilega<EMAIL_ADDRESS>[20:37] <iive> i missed the cad part.
[20:37] <wojtek0490> This manual page was written by Sven Arvidsson<EMAIL_ADDRESS> for  the Debian project (but may be used by others).
[20:37] <merma> what are the advantages of using a mail client like thunderbird to check gmail mail, instead of the actual gmail client?
[20:37] <sebsebseb> jerry_: ,but no point giving me your email address, because  1.   I don't do printers  2.  I don't want to email you
[20:37] <wojtek0490> SEE ALSO gtk-options(7), gnome-options(7)

[20:37] <guntbert> dbbolton: maybe http://www.wepkey.com/ is helpful for you?
[20:37] <jerry_> sebsebseb, Tried that on your name ,not working
[20:37] <nikin> Merma: that you have the e-mails (warys by setting) een if you are offline
[20:37] <thiebaude> jerry_: right click on the name
[20:38] <merma> nikin: good point
[20:38] <wojtek0490> http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/3729/zrzutekranuw.png
[20:38] <nikin> merma: you can use filters or whatever you want and your programs supports, it eats less bandwidth becouse it only downlods the mail, not the client.. etc...
[20:38] <dbbolton> guntbert yes, but how do i know which one to use
[20:39] <jerry_> sebsebseb ?

[20:41] <miguelonnnn> tioos, es normal que al ejecutar cp sobre unos 600 emgas el prompt deje de parpadear y no responda nada? estara colgao por mucho trabajo o se ha escoñao?
[20:41] <jim_p> hello people! long time no see :)
[20:41] <miguelonnnn> sryyyyyy wrong channel
[20:41] <miguelonnnn> hello jim_p
[20:41] <rakesh> is there any way to convert pdf file to doc,html,docx file format
[20:42] <MoeGreen> i am using dual monitors and how come when i reboot or logout all the settings are lost and only my main monitor is working until i enable the other one?
[20:42] <Crash1hd> IS this valid  line in fstab? UUID=c3a454ff-fe50-4cf2-a5f3-ef6e572c5623/Videos /home/crash1hd/Videos/ ext3 relatime 0 0
[20:42] <sebsebseb> mido_: in fact for that ##linux is probably better
[20:42] <genii> Not easily. pdf is usally an end-point
[20:42] <Aldor> i'm trying to install ubuntu 64-bit from an external hdd, i've copies everything that was on the CD over to the root directory of the external drive, but for it gives me the error "no bootmgr found" when i try to boot from it to start install
[20:42] <jim_p> rakesh: is plain text good enough?
[20:42] <Aldor> any idea how i can do this?
[20:42] <mido_> ubotuu..I'm donig LFS from Ubuntu ..doesnt matter .. how to make a new partition throw command line?
[20:42] <guntbert> dbbolton: try #1 (its used by default)
[20:42] <jim_p> mido_: cfdisk
[20:43] <rakesh> jimp......it can de
[20:43] <Aldor> pardon my typos O.O
[20:43] <sebsebseb> !bot |  mido_
[20:43] <nerdy_kid> hey guys, im trying to set up a ftp server, forwarded ports 21 and 20... im getting error messages in sys log about random ports being blocked...
[20:43] <jim_p> rakesh: then install pdf-edit and "export" the file as plain text
[20:43] <sebsebseb> mido_: it does matter in a way, because your not using Ubuntu,  so if you join the  general Linux channal :)
[20:43] <mido_> jim_p: tell me the full command
[20:43] <rakesh> ok jimp......thanks
[20:44] <mido_> I'm using ubuntu
[20:44] <Beefcaked> hi i tried installing yahoo messenger on wine and i just uninstalled it how do i get rid of the applications -> wine -> programs -> yahoo messenger category?
[20:44] <jim_p> rakesh: its pdfedit (no -)
[20:44] <jim_p> mido_: cfdisk as root and you will get an ncurses gui for the rest
[20:45] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: ok  Wine
[20:45] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: right
[20:45] <Beefcaked> yeah sebsebseb
[20:45] <Obituary> h
[20:45] <Inf_lappy_> nerdy_kid, almost certainly that's because of passive mode. ftp is an ancient protocol designed long before firewalls were a gleam in anyone's eyes
[20:45] <di||itante> Oh thats a shocker
[20:45] <mido_> thnx jim_p
[20:45] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: when you install Wine  and open it for the first time it creates  the stuff in the menu, but also a hidden .wine folder where your programs and that go
[20:45] <Beefcaked> i just want to delete the menu item it created for yahoo because when i uninstalled yahoo it didnt remove the menu item
[20:45] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked:  in the home folder
[20:45] <jim_p> mido_: you are welcome
[20:45] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: the menu stuff however does not go in there, that's in .local or .config instead
[20:46] <di||itante> Use VSFTPD on linux
[20:46] <jim_p> is there an xfce specific channel?
[20:46] <Beefcaked> sebsebseb: where can i find it
[20:46] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: well your new hence why I am telling you that as well
[20:46] <di||itante> Add add port knocking to add an extra level of sec
[20:46] <dev1> jim_p, #xfce?
[20:46] <nerdy_kid> Inf_lappy_ how do i fix it? im not using the ftp client in passive mode...
[20:46] <jim_p> like kubuntu is for kde version of ubuntu
[20:46] <genii> mido_: There is no "one command" to do the entire partitioning, etc etc. You may want to see http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/tutorials/3174/6/ for how to use fdisk and similar partitioning tools
[20:46] <leaf-sheep> jim_p: #xubuntu
[20:46] <jim_p> thanks leachim6
[20:46] <jim_p> sorry
[20:47] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: the  .folders  are  good to know about,  since that's where program user data goes, and then if you remove one,   and re open the program, it's like you just installed it
[20:47] <Aldor> is it even possible to install ubuntu from an external drive by extracting the contents of the live CD onto it?
[20:47]  * jim_p makes a not for tomorrow morning
[20:47] <Aldor> i've done it with windows /shrug
[20:47] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: they are hidden folders in home
[20:47] <sebsebseb> !home |  Beefcaked
[20:47] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: places > home folder
[20:48] <Beefcaked> sebsebseb: wait we are talking about the menu item here right? i just want to remove yahoo messenger from Applications -> Wine -> Programs
[20:48] <jailson> oi td bem
[20:48] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: then  view > show hidden files and folders,  and   you can do a list and  by type  in alphabatical order and stuff like that as well if you want
[20:48] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: yes I told you where it puts the Wine menu
[20:48] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: ,but also the  actsaul Wine programs
[20:48] <Beefcaked> oh ok
[20:48] <Obituary> hi
[20:49] <Obituary> do you all use kubuntu?
[20:49] <sebsebseb> Obituary: no
[20:49] <sebsebseb> Obituary: maybe you want #kubuntu
[20:49] <Beefcaked> so folders that have a . in front are hidden? and if i delete a hidden folder that contains app data and run that app its like reinstalling?
[20:49] <Beefcaked> since its going to recreate the . folder?
[20:49] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: kind of yeah
[20:49] <jim_p> Beefcaked: exactly
[20:49] <Obituary> i use 3, ubuntu, kubuntu and xubuntu, but in xubuntu i have problems with windows, cant maximize, anybody knows why?
[20:49] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: basically you  install a program once, and  you don't need to re install it normalley
[20:49] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: ,becasue the program and the user data  for it are kept seperate
[20:50] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: well re instaling a program can help,  when they don't just add them selves to the menu,  because then normalely the shorcuts go on, but  logging out of Ubuntu and back in again,  will also take care of that
[20:50] <jim_p> Obituary: window manager problems? eg not having  button or keyboard shortcut for maximise?
[20:51] <Beefcaked> sebsebseb: im unable to find the menu item "yahoo messenger!" anywhere in the hidden folders
[20:51] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: yes you won't find it
[20:51] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: the menu is in .local or .config
[20:51] <Beefcaked> should i relog?
[20:51] <Beefcaked> oh okay.

[20:51] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: have a look whilst your at it to see if .wine is left
[20:51] <Obituary> yeah, thats it, cannot maximise, no button at all
[20:51] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: just, becasue you removed Wine, doesn't mean you removed   the  program  user data stuff for it
[20:51] <Beefcaked> by the way i didnt uninstall wine, just yahoo messenger in wine
[20:51] <jim_p> Obituary: give me a sec to look up xfce settings
[20:52] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: that means if you re install Wine,  it will be like before
[20:52] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: ok so   get  the menu   folder  and  delete Yahoo messenger shorcuts
[20:52] <beinghuman> anyone in here familiar with splashtop?
[20:52] <dev1> Beefcaked, see local/share/applications/wine/
[20:52] <dev1> in home dir
[20:52] <dev1> .local
[20:53] <pluffsy> hi
[20:53] <Beefcaked> im in .config/menus/applications-merged and i see a file here called wine-Programs-Yahoo! Messenger.menu
[20:53] <lenswipe> anyone know where the xorg.conf file is?
[20:53] <worm> Hello, does anybody know how to open the access to my apache local server to ppl who type my IP adress ?
[20:54] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: that's   not  it
[20:54] <lenswipe> worm, is apache running?
[20:54] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: what  dev1 put
[20:54] <Beefcaked> alright im here
[20:54] <lenswipe> worm, type "localhost" on the machine tell me what happens
[20:54] <worm> lenswipe, yes
[20:54] <Beefcaked> should i delete the folder?
[20:54] <lenswipe> worm, ok then they should just type your IP
[20:54] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: not the container folder
[20:54] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: just the Yahoo stuff from it
[20:54] <dev1> see inside
[20:54] <lenswipe> worm, wait, did you mean anyone in the world? or anyone on your network?
[20:55] <Beefcaked> sebsebseb: why dont i see the accessories folder from here?
[20:55] <cached> i have some very quiet music, and i was wondering if there is a way to increase the max volume of ubuntu to compensate?
[20:55] <jim_p> brb dinner time
[20:55] <worm> lenswipe, anyone in the world
[20:55] <cached> it's still rather quiet with the volume turned all the way up
[20:55] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: ,because   the other stuff is   some where else the  config stuff for it
[20:55] <lenswipe> worm, you need to portforward - head over to portforward.com for instructions on how to do that with your router...
[20:55] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: in fact there's a nice little program built in,  that  lets you edit the menus
[20:55] <miguelonnnn> hey please, 1 question. I've just runned cp dir dir, and the prompt freezed, i open graphically the dir and just 2 dirs are made, no more. I wonder is it right or cp is in troubles? i should have made a verbose cp but didn't think about it
[20:55] <worm> lenswipe, ok thanks i couldn't find any relevant keywords to type in google
[20:55] <cmp> any good site full of applications for ubuntu ?
[20:55] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: for the other stuff, like what programs you want shown and that kind of thing
[20:55] <Beefcaked> sebsebseb: should i delete the yahoo messenger thing i saw in .config ?
[20:55] <lenswipe> sebsebseb, you talking about alacarte
[20:56] <Inf_lappy_> cached, not really an ubuntu problem, but have you tried replaygain and playing in a replaygain-aware audio player?
[20:56] <sebsebseb> lenswipe: probably
[20:56] <sebsebseb> !repos | cmp
[20:56] <sebsebseb> !synapic |  cmp
[20:56] <kpkudi> cmp: lol well it depends on what you want
[20:56] <lenswipe> worm, no problem, you tell portforward that you want a HTTP server or something and then you tell it your make and model of router and it gives you step by step advice
[20:56] <sebsebseb> !synaptic | cmp
[20:56] <pluffsy> I have problems with a crashing server and I have very little idea of what is causing it and where to look. What should I check more than syslog?
[20:57] <Crash1hd> Is there a way to mount a subdirectory using uuid?
[20:57] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: the thing in .config   you can leave that
[20:57] <lenswipe> pluffsy, mebbe try typing "top" in terminal and see whats eating all the CPU and memory
[20:57] <Inf_lappy_> cached, i use foobar2000 (www.foobar2000.org) in wine for replaygain scanning myself. works like a charm. only linux player that i know of that uses replaygain is amarok though
[20:57] <Beefcaked> sebsebseb: just wondering if i should delete wine-Programs-Yahoo! Messenger.menu from .config/menus/applications-merged
[20:57] <cmp> kpkudi, i want to have program which could allow me to make calles by connecting my mobile
[20:57] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: ,but it will probably be ok to delete it
[20:57] <ksool> Does anyone have BackroundProgram working for gdm? It seems to ignore it for me on intrepid and a fresh jaunty install.
[20:57] <worm> lenswipe, actually i would like to set up a temporary http server to show some projects to friends...that's what portforward does ?
[20:57] <pluffsy> lenswipe: yeah I've done that. but can't really find anything special. it says almost all ram is used but I can't find processes that use those ram. :/
[20:57] <Beefcaked> sebsebseb: thanks for all the help, i have to go for a bit :) im waiting on halitech maybe he'll finally get my webcam working
[20:58] <sebsebseb> Beefcaked: ok no probs
[20:58] <lenswipe> worm, portforwarding means you set your router to direct incoming requests on port 80 (thats for web browsing) at your server so that your webserver is accessible to the outside world portforward.com tells you how to do that
[20:58] <mido_> genii: thnx a lot man ,,
[20:58] <worm> lenswipe, ok ok thanks a lot
[20:58] <lenswipe> pluffsy, the processes at the top of the list are the ones using the most memory...
[20:58] <lenswipe> worm, no problem
[20:59] <lenswipe> oh, and worm, make sure your server has a satic IP
[20:59] <arand> Inf_lappy_: gmusicbrowser can read replaygain tags
[20:59] <kpkudi> cmp: you want to connect your phone to your computer and make calls? why dont you just use the phone lol
[20:59] <danbhfive> cached: there is mp3gain if it is an mp3
[20:59] <harn1> The xserver isn't restarting after a logout, the shutdown and restart buttons aren't working. I'm presently using command line to shut down. What can I do to correct this?
[20:59] <lenswipe> worm, so rather than being assigned an IP from your router your server needs to have an IP address set like <IP_ADDRESS> or something
[20:59] <kpkudi> cmp: or maybe im confused
[21:00] <lenswipe> worm, otherwise your servers IP will change and your router will be pointing HTTP requests to the wrong IP...
[21:00] <cached> Inf_lappy_: but there's no system-wide setting you know of?
[21:00] <worm> lenswipe, okay i'll keep that in mind
[21:00] <genii> mido_: You're welcome
[21:00] <Inf_lappy_> cached, well. if your audio files just have very low volume no fiddling with system settings will help that
[21:00] <lenswipe> worm, come back and ask me if you need anything because im running a webserver on my end here
[21:00] <lenswipe> worm, so ive done it before :)
[21:01] <worm> lenswipe, ok ;)
[21:01] <Inf_lappy_> cached, but you could try running alsa-mixer in a terminal and see if any of the output levels is very low
[21:01] <Inf_lappy_> cached, sorry. "alsamixer"
[21:01] <MoeGreen> why would a dvd not be playing if i installed vlc and also libdvd2css?
[21:02] <cmp> kpkudi, may be i wanted for some special purpose ???????
[21:02] <kpkudi> cmp: i would just use skype
[21:03] <Obituary> hi
[21:03] <jim_p> hi
[21:03] <Inf_lappy_> cached, in particular PCM. the gnome volume control manipulates Master iirc, but some programs change the volume on PCM. teamspeak being one of them if i'm not mistaken
[21:03] <jim_p> MoeGreen: do you have audio but no video?
[21:03] <DJNomad> is there a gimp help channel?
[21:04] <cmp> kpkudi, you dont give me straight answer -  can you tell me good site for porgrams in ubuntu?
[21:04] <MoeGreen> vlc see's the dvd but when i hit open it doesnt do anything
[21:04] <DJNomad> good site for ubuntu programs?
[21:04] <ActionParsnip> MoeGreen: you mean libdvdcss2?
[21:04] <Gouda> www.google.com
[21:04] <sebsebseb> DJNomad: browse Synaptic
[21:04] <Flannel> DJNomad: Almost certainly.  It's on irc.gnome.org, looks like #gimp
[21:04] <jim_p> DJNomad: synaptic
[21:05] <MoeGreen> yeah
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> MoeGreen: media -> open disk
[21:05] <MoeGreen> i did that
[21:05] <harn1> The xserver isn't restarting after a logout, the shutdown and restart buttons aren't working. I'm presently using command line to shut down. What can I do to correct this?
[21:05] <DJNomad> someone4 else asked the program site
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> !dvd | MoeGreen
[21:05] <harn1> Is there a channel for karmic bugs/problems?
[21:05] <cmp> any one can guide me to a site for applications for ubuntu ?
[21:05] <Flannel> harn1: #ubuntu+1
[21:05] <sebsebseb> !karmic |  harn1
[21:05] <ActionParsnip> !karmic | ham1
[21:06] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: I think normalley it would have gone see above  instead of two of those?
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> cmp: you can use synaptic or apt-cache to search
[21:06] <IdleOne> cmp: System>Administration>Synaptic package manager
[21:06] <kpkudi> cmp: use syntapic (i never got the spelling down) no one here goes to a website they may search on google for what they need but 9/10 they download from syntapic, if you cant find the program you need on google or noone here has no idea it proably does not exsist
[21:06] <Flannel> sebsebseb: Misspelling of the name.  But everyone, please pay attention to factoids.  It's rude to hit someone with something they've already been told
[21:06] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: mustve been time enough between
[21:07] <DJNomad> cmp ubuntu has a program in it that finds and installs programs called what they was saying
[21:07] <sebsebseb> ActionParsnip: nope what Flannel said
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: gotcha
[21:07] <ActionParsnip> sebsebseb: im just slow today
[21:07] <sebsebseb> Flannel: ok
[21:08] <sebsebseb> ok
[21:08] <MoeGreen> thanks my problem was "sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh"
[21:09] <jim_p> MoeGreen: what is that script supposed to do? :S
[21:09] <MoeGreen> helped me play dvd's in vlc
[21:09] <jim_p> lol
[21:10] <csarven> Is the uuid in /boot/grub/menu.lst unique to the machine or the kernel?
[21:10] <sebsebseb> !lol >  jim_p

[21:11] <c7p> how can i upgrade 8.10 to 9.04 from command line , cause i got an issue with the gui. thx
[21:11] <Slart> !upgrade | c7p
[21:11] <Slart> c7p: I think there is a command line script for upgrading somewhere in that link
[21:11] <c7p> thx
[21:11] <burf> hey guys - youtube vids play really slow on my system and i cant watch bbc iplayer at all - any ideas - i did install the gstreamer when it popped  up?
[21:12] <Slart> c7p: search for "upgrading ubuntu server".. I think that would work even if you have the desktop version
[21:12] <eyore15> Does anyone have any experience with the System76 Starling Netbook?
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> Can someone please name the app that allows you to copy between processes even if you close the one you copied form
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> from*
[21:12] <ActionParsnip> somethng like clipper
[21:12] <Slart> burf: I've heard many people complain about the bbc player.. and hulu.. haven't seen any solutions yet.. you could try installing a newer version of the flash plugin..
[21:13] <jim_p> ActionParsnip: well it downloads a deb and installs it... nothing special
[21:13] <DJNomad> does anyone like listen music player?
[21:13] <jim_p> ActionParsnip: glipper ?
[21:13] <Slart> ActionParsnip: some kind of clipboard app?
[21:13] <alejandro> I was talking to a guy last night about Linuxsampler....lol are you here???
[21:13] <DJNomad> I got the .6.3 installed today and I li,ke it pretty good
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> jim_p: thats the one, thanks :D
[21:13] <burf> i see adobe flash player 10 in the add/remove but it says its 3rd party
[21:13] <ActionParsnip> Slart: glipper is the one
[21:13] <nerdy_kid> where does xinit.rc go? trying to auto load nvidia config
[21:13] <eurythmia_> I've got some pretty weird permissions stuff going on. something seems to think there's no permissions data in my web root ... here's the output of ls -laZ: http://www.pastebin.ca/1551898
[21:14] <jim_p> ActionParsnip: well its heavily dependant on gnome though :(
[21:14] <ActionParsnip> jim_p: i'm usingg gnome based stuff so its ok
[21:14] <jim_p> burf: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree and u are done
[21:15] <Inf_lappy_> burf, i can only speak for myself, but flash on linux hasn't been good for me. this laptop overheats _every time_ if i watch an HQ youtube video for 15-20 minutes
[21:15] <rabidweezle> Exactly *how* does ubuntu do auto-mounting of inserted media?
[21:15] <kpkudi> cmp: observe....
[21:15] <ActionParsnip> Inf_lappy_: apparently theres a way to make it use less
[21:15] <ActionParsnip> Inf_lappy_: use less resource
[21:15] <kpkudi> whats that spreadsheet program (not openoffice) callded?
[21:15] <jim_p> Inf_lappy_: it does the same on all junk facebook apps on the desktop (dual core etc) and the laptop (single core etc)
[21:15] <Inf_lappy_> rabidweezle, i'm pretty sure it's hald that does that
[21:15] <Slart> kpkudi: gnumeric?
[21:15] <erUSUL> kpkudi: gnumeric
[21:16] <sebsebseb> kpkudi: Gnumeric or KOffice
[21:16] <rabidweezle> hald ehh, I'll look it up, thanks
[21:16] <kpkudi> cmp: now i will search for gnumeric, which i will find, and install
[21:16] <nerdy_kid> anyone know where the xinit.rc file is?
[21:16] <jim_p> rabidweezle: with hal's assistance, like all other DE do
[21:16] <ajitam> hi I connected a device on my rs232. when I type "dmesg | grep tty" i don't find it. Is this it or is there some driver for rs232 ?
[21:17] <jim_p> nerdy_kid: /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
[21:17] <cmp> what do you mean  kpkudi?
[21:17] <rabidweezle> jim_p: I recently switched to opensuse for a project, and it doesn't do it XD
[21:17] <rabidweezle> lame
[21:17] <burf> i instaled guarddog earlier - could it be a protocol i havnt enabled?
[21:17] <rayno_b> hello there - I just installed samba 3 and set it up as a domain controller.  pc's can join fine, however user credentials are not cached on the windows machines and therefore cannot log in when disconnected.
[21:17] <Inf_lappy_> ActionParsnip, yeah. i tried export XLIB_SKIP_ARGB_VISUALS=1 in firefox.sh and it seems to have helped a little. but it still gets _very_ hot when playing video - even something like 400 pixel tall
[21:17] <donpdonp> is there an ubuntu equivalent for OS X dashboard widgets?
[21:17] <nerdy_kid> jim_p thanks, do you know how to run a program in the file?
[21:17] <burf> ts normal tcpip isnt it?
[21:18] <jim_p> rabidweezle: well... under gnome 2.24+ nautilus handles automounting
[21:18] <eurythmia_> rayno_b: you'll want to ask in #windows
[21:18] <rayno_b> thanks
[21:18] <eurythmia_> no prob.
[21:18] <Inf_lappy_> ActionParsnip, compared to playing perfectly good x264 encodes in mplayer without breaking a sweat. honestly flash is just garbage on linux
[21:18] <jim_p> nerdy_kid: /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc is a shell script i think
[21:18] <rabidweezle> guess I could use nautilus
[21:18] <rabidweezle> i'm in kde4 atm
[21:19] <nerdy_kid> jim_p yeah ok, thanks :)
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> Inf_lappy_: its garbage eveywhere
[21:19] <jim_p> rabidweezle: there is some applet that handles automounting of removable media
[21:19] <sebsebseb> rabidweezle: by the way there's also #kubuntu
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> Inf_lappy_: adobe are too stupid to make it opensource too
[21:19] <ajitam> hi I connected a device on my rs232. when I type "dmesg | grep tty" i don't find it. Is this it or is there some driver for rs232 ?
[21:19] <Letterbomb05> Hi, I was just trying to install conky, however when I execute ./config in the terminal I get configure error: Can't locate X11 installation. How can I resolve this? [Linux noob]
[21:19] <ActionParsnip> Letterbomb05: conky is in repos
[21:20] <ActionParsnip> !info conky | Letterbomb05
[21:20] <jim_p> Letterbomb05: delete the folder you have there and    sudo apt-get install conky
[21:20] <rayno_b> the people over at #windows (and #samba) doesn't seem to be talkative at all.  anyone here with an idea to help me?
[21:20] <jim_p> apt will take care of the rest
[21:20] <rabidweezle> sebsebseb: I'm thinking about switching this project to kubuntu now, openSUSE has MUCH to be desired in the way of fuctionality
[21:20] <Letterbomb05> ok thanks jim_p
[21:20] <jim_p> rayno_b: can you please repeat the question?
[21:20] <sebsebseb> rabidweezle: what kind of project?
[21:21] <rabidweezle> sebsebseb: A school thing, trying to show the school that forcing the children to use windows costs the state alot more than they know
[21:21] <rayno_b> when using samba as domain controller, and windows is set to cache credentials, it appears that the credentials are actually not cached, so users cannot log in when not connected to the network.
[21:21] <sebsebseb> rabidweezle: oh right, well good luck with that
[21:21] <Letterbomb05> jim_p, how can I now get conky on my desktop? I've used sudo apt-get install
[21:22] <sebsebseb> rabidweezle: also it's probably better realy to promote stanard Ubuntu, rather than Kubuntu
[21:22] <rabidweezle> sebsebseb: basically, the kids bring home their school laptops loaded with viruses and then spread them at the network at school...
[21:22] <jim_p> rayno_b: sorry mate, i have no idea on this
[21:22] <rayno_b> aaaaah :(
[21:22] <anqee|home> is there an application that fully supports exchange for Ubuntu or any other dists? I'm thinking to let go of M$ for Ubuntu in my working environment
[21:22] <Flannel> Letterbomb05: You've gotta make your conkyrc or whatever (conky is installed on your machine, but now you have to 'enable' it for your account, however that's done)
[21:22] <Pulga> hi, I am looking for a documentation about kernel compilation....
[21:23] <rabidweezle> sebsebseb: true, but these kids are using vista, and they are all about "pretty" :/
[21:23] <eurythmia_> have you ever seen the output of ls -l  look like this: -????????? ? ? ? 0 ?          ? <filename>
[21:23] <jim_p> Letterbomb05: there is a huge thread on ubuntuforums.org regarduing conky configuration. you will need to make a .conkyrc first
[21:23] <Flannel> !kernel | Pulga
[21:23] <Letterbomb05> ok jim_p thanks i'll look into it.
[21:23] <sebsebseb> rabidweezle: well Gnome can be themed of course as well, and look rather nice  after doing that
[21:23] <jim_p> rayno_b: install swat in case it gives you more samba options to configure
[21:23] <Pulga> thanks
[21:23] <rakesh> cn anyone help me connecting yahoo messenger
[21:24] <jim_p> rakesh: use pidgin
[21:24] <prodigel> hi all. how do I run gproftpd. I've just installed it along proftpd and I get command not found when trying sudo gproftpd
[21:24] <jim_p> rayno_b: swat is a web based ui for samba
[21:24] <Inf_lappy_> rabidweezle, first of all if they don't like brown, there is always blubuntu
[21:24] <sebsebseb> rabidweezle: also  remember this kind of software isn't only about saving money
[21:24] <rabidweezle> sebsebseb: true, ubuntu would be safe, and I could just install a few different window managers to show that they can get their kid's laptops running the best for their peticular child's tastes, without breaking them every week
[21:24] <sebsebseb> !freedom |  rabidweezle
[21:25] <rakesh> jimp....but its not working
[21:26] <rabidweezle> sebsebseb: I know all about freedom, but I don't want to preach to them about that, I want to tell them that their homework won't be lost because they contracted a virus from a website that crippled a years worth of labs and reports, saving them from failing school.
[21:26] <sebsebseb> rabidweezle: we are off topic, hence why I started a pm
[21:26] <Flannel> rabidweezle, sebsebseb: mind taking this conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic?  Thanks
[21:26] <rabidweezle> NP
[21:26] <rabidweezle> sorry caps
[21:27] <jim_p> rakesh: use kopete or some other multi protocol client like ayttm
[21:27] <Michalxo> or empathy :D
[21:27] <jim_p> or sim
[21:28] <austin_> Can someone help me install the latest Java SDK and JRE?
[21:28] <austin_> anybody?
[21:29] <burf> anyone here using onversation client?
[21:29] <burf> konversation
[21:29] <jim_p> austin_: arent the ones in the repo enough fresh?
[21:29] <austin_> jim_p: I installed those, but went to the java website and ran some test...says i'm a bit outdated
[21:29] <burf> if so how do you stop it from flooding my screen with X joined... x left.. etc...
[21:30] <Gouda> I have a question regarding Amarok media player. I do not see an option for my storage drive to scan for my collection.
[21:30] <jim_p> austin_: i would stick to the repo provided ones and not care about what sun's site says
[21:31] <burf> nevermidn found it
[21:31] <abhifx> is there a download manager cum torrent down-loader for Linux?
[21:32] <Inf_lappy_> austin_, the current java6 update revision on ubuntu is 14 and sun's latest is 16. you can read the release notes on sun's website here: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/ReleaseNotes.html to see what fixes you're missing
[21:32] <ActionParsnip> abhifx: theres gwget if you want a download manager
[21:32] <Trijntje> abhifx: transmission is a simple client
[21:32] <Inf_lappy_> if any of them are important to you *then* manually upgrade. they probably aren't though
[21:32] <burf> not being able watch youtube vids and bbc iplayer might be a reason to go back to crappy windoze
[21:33] <rakesh> is there way to use yahoo messenger
[21:33] <burf> shame cos im loving linux so far
[21:33] <Thingymebob> burf:  you can do both
[21:33] <Trijntje> burf: did you install flashplugin nonfree?
[21:33] <abhifx> ActionParsnip, : i want an integrated solution, thanks for suggestion though
[21:33] <austin_> burf: use opera man
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> rakesh: either pidgin or gyachi
[21:33] <burf> rakesh: no - but pidgen isnt far off
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> abhifx: not sure one exists
[21:33] <Gouda> I would suggest Pidgin. Pidgin is awesome
[21:33] <burf> i installed the flashplugin nonfree yes
[21:33] <ActionParsnip> abhifx: opera can do both, it has a torrent client inbuilt
[21:33] <abhifx> Trijntje: is there an integrated solution, thanks for suggestion though
[21:34] <rakesh> is there any other
[21:34] <burf> i need FF - its the best, plus i need the dev tools (firebug etc.)
[21:34] <abhifx> ActionParsnip : ok
[21:34] <Trijntje> burf: and restart firefox etc?
[21:34] <burf> yep
[21:34] <Gouda> I would just look up Pigdin. I am positive it will meet your needs. Google it and check out their website
[21:35] <Trijntje> abhifx: I do not understand that, did I awnser your question?
[21:35] <abhifx> ActionParsnip : i find operas download system very weak. so there is no other package? not even a plugin?
[21:35] <ActionParsnip> abhifx: not sure, thats al i can think of
[21:35] <rakesh> is there otherway to run yahoo messenger except pidgin&gyachi
[21:36] <ichat> pidgin is obsolete as there is telepathy
[21:36] <abhifx> ActionParsnip, k, ty
[21:36] <jim_p> rakesh: ayttm , sim, kopete...
[21:36] <austin_> Inf_lappy: It says, when i run java -version "java version "1.6.0_14"
[21:36] <austin_> "
[21:36] <abhifx> Trijntje : u did responded me
[21:36] <ActionParsnip> ichat: sounds interesting
[21:37] <ichat> telepathy also supports many 'windows only' feature with for example msn
[21:37] <ichat> lol video / audio calls
[21:37] <ichat> and stuf like that
[21:38] <ichat> its supposedly also supports jingle (as in gtalk) -
[21:38] <ActionParsnip> ichat: what protocols does it suport?
[21:38] <ichat> but i havn't tried that out yet
[21:38] <abhifx> with the latest version, pidgin has also added audio video feature
[21:38] <burf> its so slow
[21:38] <jim_p> goodnight people
[21:38] <burf> makes my system crawl too

[21:39] <burf> so is it a liecnsiing issue with adobe then - cant they be arsed to release for linux?
[21:39] <ActionParsnip> cheetahw26: depends on what chip it uses?

[21:40] <ichat> sam -  vnc would do?
[21:40] <ActionParsnip> burf: you can install it many ways, provided the .so for your achitecture is in your plugins folder, it wil work
[21:40] <ActionParsnip> !hcl | cheetahw26
[21:40] <burf> in add/remove all i see is a 3rd party adbode flash player
[21:40] <austin_> Can someone help me install BlueJ.  I'm trying to  install by the instructions but its not working

[21:41] <MrStein1> Where to start if I want to set some Xorg mouse related options (like SampleRate) ? Xorg.conf is practically empty. I have Ubuntu 9.04
[21:41] <burf> burfs-pc
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> Letterbomb05: then: kill f<left most number>
[21:41] <guntbert> Letterbomb05: you use kill or killall

[21:41] <ActionParsnip> burf: the whole output please
[21:41] <ActionParsnip> burf: thanks
[21:42] <burf> ActionParsnip: what does that tell you aprt from my pc name
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> burf: I'll show you how I do ity instead of the packages. imho the package for flash sucks
[21:42] <burf> thx man - appriciate it
[21:42] <ActionParsnip> burf: kernel version, i686 = 32bit
[21:42] <burf> oh i see
[21:43] <ichat> MrStein1:  -  xorg seems to have been replased by a file  in the drive part  like  nvidia.conf  or ati.conf  or somethink like that... -  you can use thair controll pannel applet or lurk a bit in your /etc/
[21:43] <burf> its a shame cos flash video is used more and more
[21:43] <ichat> (xorg as in  xorg.conf
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> burf: mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins; cd ~/.mozilla/plugins; wget http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz; tar zxvf ./install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz; rm ./install_flash_player_10_linux.tar.gz
[21:44] <ActionParsnip> burf: run that and restart firefox, you now have flash
[21:44] <burf> can i run that all in one line with the ;'s
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> burf: yes, thats the idea
[21:45] <nicklas__> hello, anyone knows if you can request packages in repos? warsow has been released in new version
[21:45] <burf> cool - just checking
[21:45] <Obituary> what desktops can i install with ubuntu please?
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> Obituary: do you mean like gnome / kde etc?
[21:45] <mneptok> ActionParsnip: despite personal preferences, packages are the recommended method for new users
[21:45] <Obituary> yeah
[21:45] <Obituary> i have ubuntu, xubuntu and kubuntu together
[21:45] <eurythmia_> how do I schedule an fsck on the next reboot? I want to check my homedir, and the "forcefsck" file didn't do the trick.
[21:45] <ActionParsnip> mneptok: i know but s/he was asking earlier today so its been a while and has got no where
[21:46] <mneptok> ActionParsnip: and that command will *not* work in a single inputline
[21:46] <ichat> Obituary:  -   there's at least  KDE GNOME XFCD  LXDE  OpenBox
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> Obituary: LXDE, Fluxbox, flwm
[21:46] <Obituary> ok, thanks
[21:46] <ichat>  packages
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> mneptok: why not?
[21:46] <mneptok> burf: did you try installing the official Flash package?
[21:46] <ActionParsnip> Obituary: e17
[21:46] <burf> got 100% then now i see libflashplayer.so <newline>burf@burfs-pc:~/.mozilla/plugins$
[21:46] <burf> has it finished?
[21:46] <ichat> ActionParsnip:  -  Enlightenmet CEWL
[21:47] <ActionParsnip> burf: yes, if you run: ls
[21:47] <ActionParsnip> burf: do you see the .so file
[21:47] <burf> yeah
[21:47] <ActionParsnip> mneptok: looks like it passed ok to me :P
[21:47] <ActionParsnip> burf: close all firefoxes and rerun
[21:47] <Obituary> and what do you do to install in console? sudo apt-get install opensuse-desktop?
[21:48] <burf> doing it now - thx
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> Obituary: that wont work
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> Obituary: opensuse is a seperate distribution
[21:48] <maxagaz> how to set screen by default each time i open a bash ?
[21:48] <ActionParsnip> Obituary: suse uses kde
[21:48] <necrogami> Any idea why my cpu clock speed registers 800mhz instead of the correct 3.52ghz?
[21:48] <Obituary> ah ok, i have tried with sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop in ubuntu and has it worked
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> mneptok: what was wrong with my command? user has reported a success?
[21:49] <Obituary> and xubuntu too
[21:49] <Gouda> Necro: Is it registering that same speed in your bios? Maybe something in there got set wrong
[21:49] <MoeGreen> is k3b the best for burning?
[21:49] <ichat> to install its  kununtu-desktop  afaik
[21:49] <Obituary> problem with xubuntu, windows doesnt work well, cannot maximise and close them dont know why
[21:49] <ActionParsnip> MoeGreen: there is no best
[21:49] <necrogami> Gouda: i've rebooted .. on reboot it shows the correct 3.52 and in bios cpu status screen it says the same.
[21:49] <burf> not any different - ts still really jumpy and slow
[21:49] <Obituary> ok
[21:50] <burf> thats a shame
[21:50] <ActionParsnip> MoeGreen: so it is simultaneously the best and worst as well as everything in between
[21:50] <necrogami> Gouda: http://sysinfo.bsap.ws/index.php?disp=dynamic
[21:50] <burf> thx anyway tho ActionParsnip
[21:50] <Lostinspace_46> I am remapping my keyboard with xmodmap and xbindkeys. While they work together, they look at modifiers differently. Do they work together but run independantly?
[21:50] <nicklas__> can i do package update requests here?
[21:50] <nicklas__> !bugzilla
[21:50] <nicklas__> !package
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> mneptok: fyi, thats one of my long standing scripts that installs flash, so i know it works. I'd like to improve it if you can spot any flaws
[21:51] <ActionParsnip> burf: what spec is the system? Are you running compiz?
[21:51] <Diabetic4Life> I recently switched from Vista to Ubuntu knowing full well that I was going to have problems with running software and such on it and now need some help to access something on a web site for  class that I am taking anyone have some time to give me a hand. BTW I am new to irc as well so bare with me if you are kind enough to help.
[21:52] <Aison> hello
[21:52] <burf> the system isnt great (had no issues on xp tho) im runnining compiz but i cant enable any effects
[21:52] <rodimus> hi
[21:52] <ActionParsnip> burf: do you have swfdec or gnash installed also?
[21:52] <m1dlg> If I have a XP PC and a Ubuntu PC on same network, how do I browse the 'shared' folder on my Ubunutu machine when using XP?
[21:52] <burf> ah - maybe thats the reason - it doesnt recognise my card i think (or does work wel with it)
[21:52] <burf> no but il try those now
[21:52] <ActionParsnip> burf: that may be why, get your video card instaled and it should be ok
[21:53] <froshchan> i have a bizarre battery issue. the AC power is connected to my laptop but the battery doesn't seem to be charging
[21:53] <Aison> I installed ubuntu on a nvidia ION architecture. now I need some driver for graphics. what do I have to install?
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> burf: dont use them as well, only use one#
[21:53] <burf> i spent all day on that yesterday - im putting it down to be ing a n old card
[21:53] <froshchan> it's been at 4.9% for 3 days of full power
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> Aison: what is the output of: lsb_release -c
[21:53] <guntbert> nicklas__: this is a help channel, not a place to contact developpers/packagers
[21:53] <burf> im using my onboard sis at the mo, i rippe out my ati rage 128 pro (also old) cos i had same isses
[21:53] <ActionParsnip> burf: whats the output of: lspci | grep -i vga
[21:54] <burf> sudo apt-get install swfdec   ?
[21:54] <nicklas__> guntbert: so where i do that then?
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> !flash | burf
[21:54] <nicklas__> guntbert: launchpad works like bugzilla?
[21:54] <burf> 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761Gx PCIE VGA Display Adapter
[21:54] <ActionParsnip> burf: if yuo are going that way you will need to run: rm -rf ~/.mozilla/plugins
[21:55] <burf> is swfdec a replacement then?
[21:55] <guntbert> nicklas__: I don't know about requests
[21:55] <m1dlg> !samba
[21:55] <nicklas__> guntbert: ok, thanks anyway
[21:56] <Aison> ActionParsnip, Codename:       jaunty ;)
[21:56] <ActionParsnip> Aison: cool
[21:56] <Aison> ActionParsnip, it works, but the opensource driver is not that nice
[21:56] <m1dlg> !samba
[21:56] <Inf_lappy_> Diabetic4Life, that's either a firefox problem or (more likely) the website is specifically coded to only work with MSIE. you *might* be lucky and get IEs4Linux to work with it
[21:56] <eurythmia_> necrogami: probably CPU scaling. unless ... is this through "cat /proc/cpuinfo" ?
[21:56] <m1dlg> If I have a XP PC and a Ubuntu PC on same network, how do I browse the 'shared' folder on my Ubunutu machine when using XP?
[21:56] <nicklas__> guntbert: are you like a ubuntu admin or something?
[21:56] <puff> Hey, I'm trying to get the canon pixma mp210 drivers to work. I've downloaded the proprietary drivers from Canon Australia, installed the debs wtih dpkg, but they still don't show up in SYstem/Admin/New Printers...
[21:56] <burf> so install swfdec and remove teh plugins from FF with rm -rf ~/.mozilla/plugins ?
[21:56] <Aison> ActionParsnip, but the driver manager don't show me the proprietary one
[21:57] <ActionParsnip> Aison: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-180
[21:57] <ActionParsnip> burf: yes, if you have more than 1 flash plugin they conflict
[21:57] <guntbert> nicklas__: on my machine yes - and you might want to ask about requests in #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:57] <burf> ActionParsnip: flash plugi installer already installed wheni click the apt link
[21:58] <nicklas__> guntbert: hmm, dont know if i agree with you, i dont think its offtopic
[21:58] <burf> sudo apt-get install swfdec   didnt find anything either
[21:58] <GobiTheGoblin> hi there =)
[21:58] <GobiTheGoblin> You must have heard the ati issues with 9.04?
[21:59] <GobiTheGoblin> I fixed with this: http://tan-com.com/posts/technology/fix-ubuntu-904-ati-driver-issue
[21:59] <guntbert> nicklas__: *this* channel is strictly for support
[21:59] <GobiTheGoblin> and now, I have compiz effects running wihtout propiertary drivers installed.. is it normal?
[21:59] <nicklas__> guntbert: but isnt that support? getting a package you want/need?
[21:59] <burf> ActionParsnip: what should i do?>
[22:00] <sharef> im looking for support for ipmsg command line interface, some pm me if they have significant knowledge in it
[22:00] <kerim> hello

[22:00] <nicklas__> !launchpadf
[22:00] <kerim> how can ınstall QGrub editor on ubuntu whith console
[22:00] <nicklas__> !launchpad
[22:00] <ActionParsnip> burf: you just said it, you need to delete the plugins folder, uninstall any flash plugins you may have installed, then install the alternative
[22:01] <Flannel> nicklas__: #ubuntu-motu is the place you go to discuss additional packages... I can't seem to find the wiki page about it right now for some reason
[22:01] <puff> ARgh.
[22:01] <puff> Can anybody help me get this printer working?
[22:01] <dive^> Hi guys, I'm trying to mount a samba share and I'm looking smbmount or mount.cifs. Says I need smbfs but apt says package is missing or obsoleted. Any solutions?
[22:01] <Flannel> nicklas__: Ah, here we go: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages
[22:02] <bthornton> Does anybody know how to get the latest version of Vuze working on Jaunty (64-bit)? I don't even care about the packages; I should just be able to download the "stock" Vuze distribution and run it, it seems to be unable to locate the correct SWT libraries.
[22:02] <bthornton> Yes, I do have SWT installed.
[22:02] <m1dlg> nicklas__, I'm with the other guys here, that your thread has expired and his clogging the forum

[22:03] <_lucky_> thanks
[22:04] <ActionParsnip> burf: theres this for your video card. http://www.winischhofer.eu/linuxsisvga.shtml Ive not used it so cant comment on it, looks thorough
[22:04] <Flannel> nicklas__: Don't worry about it.  In summary: packaging questions belong in #ubuntu-motu (which you didn't know, but now you do!) and you don't even need to go there, since this outlines the steps: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages
[22:05] <nicklas__> Flannel: thank you, help without being rude :-)

[22:19] <burf> how do i install a file on the desktop from a terminal?
[22:19] <puff> If anybody's curious, I ended up getting my Canon Pixma mp210 working by selecting the pixma mp180 in the printer configuration step.  I had, previous to that, downloaded and installed the proprietary canon pixma mp210 drivers from Canon Australia, but they didn't show up in the drivers list.  The mp180 drivers seem to be doing the job with respect to printing, and the xsane-pixma package was already working for scanning.
[22:20] <burf> theres no install.sh i can see

I installed Ubuntu Netbook Remix, and everything worked great...  then I went to preferences and tried out the ubuntu regular dkestop mode.  This flashed a config error but worked.

[22:22] <ActionParsnip> sauce: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install vlc
[22:22] <mido_> connect me to #lfs
[22:22] <sebsebseb> dabukalam: if you try and open the mp3 it should ask you  if you want to install the codec
[22:22] <albn> Hello. I have a USB optical mouse, and it seems to "stick". How can this be resolved?
[22:23] <powertool08> mido_: I didn't know it would... perhaps the quotes caused it? Is that the channel you were looking for?
[22:23] <dabukalam> sebsebseb: what?
[22:23] <ActionParsnip> albn: once it sticks, run: dmesg | tail
[22:23] <dabukalam> sebsebseb: you're thinking about Diabetic4Life
[22:24] <albn> ActionParsnip, ok
[22:24] <mido_> yes powertool08

[22:29] <ActionParsnip> albn: is it a branded mouse or is it a generic thing
[22:29] <R3> it looks like i need to add a www-data user and group - how do i do this
[22:29] <Guest92442> is there a chance it would be broken?
[22:29] <Guest92442> its only slightly bent asin you hardly notice it
[22:29] <albn> Labtec. It looks like it is a brandname, but one I never heard of befoe
[22:29] <Guest92442> and it doesnt appear to be cracked
[22:29] <albn> *before
[22:29] <Guest92442> anyone?
[22:30] <linxeh> Guest92442: try it.
[22:30] <ActionParsnip> albn: any model on it?
[22:30] <Guest92442> linxeh: i dont have a machine i can try it in right now
[22:31] <Guest92442> linxeh: its a linksys wireless G card i lent it to a freind and it came back with the arieal broken and the card bent
[22:31] <linxeh> some friend
[22:31] <forceflow> bending shouldn't be that big of a problem, I think
[22:31] <mido_> guyz... how to make a partition via command line?
[22:31] <Guest92442> linxeh: well i think hes just careless, needless to say i wont lend him anything again

[22:31] <forceflow> I mean, sometimes motherboards get bent quite a bit too
[22:32] <Guest92442> forceflow: thanks - it doesnt look cracked just ever so SLIGHTLY bent
[22:32] <Guest92442> hardly noticeably
[22:32] <Diabetic4Life> What is the command in Terminal to play an mp3 file
[22:32] <forceflow> just double-check if any connections are broken
[22:32] <Guest92442> forceflow: how?
[22:32] <forceflow> don't know, just look at the thing
[22:32] <Guest92442> forceflow: i dont have a machine i can try it in here - nothing *looks* broken...
[22:32] <forceflow> say, on a motherboard, you've got resistors which could been out of place
[22:32] <forceflow> okay
[22:33] <albn> ActionParsnip, Ohh, the supported OS's are Win and derviatives
[22:33] <forceflow> well, should be okay then, I guess
[22:33] <forceflow> you never know
[22:33] <albn> Maybe I need another mouse
[22:33] <forceflow> if he broke it and bent it back ... :)
[22:33] <mido_> how to  make a partition via command line?
[22:33] <powertool08> Diabetic4Life: mplayer <path/to/file>, or other programs will play it as well
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> albn: i'll see what i can dig up
[22:33] <burf> what is xfree86?
[22:33] <Diabetic4Life> powertool: thanks
[22:33] <Guest92442> forceflow: well this thing is totally flat - pretty much not even any sticking out solders or components...
[22:33] <albn> ActionParsnip, I googled, but I do not know the technical term for the symptom
[22:34] <albn> So asking the wrong question leads to fruitless answers
[22:34] <joshua1982> could any1 help me how to setup torrentflux on ubuntu 904 to work behind home router and ISP router ?
[22:34] <Guest92442> forceflow: thanks

[22:34] <burf> i cant figure out which pre-compied binary i should use

[22:35] <joshua1982> Guest92442, I really have no idea
[22:36] <Guest92442> sebsebseb: torrenting doesnt neccecarily mean pirating - some GPL software packages are done via torrent...
[22:36] <Flannel> sebsebseb: since when are torrents illegal?
[22:36] <sebsebseb> Guest92442: true
[22:36] <Guest92442> sebsebseb: particullarly large ones
[22:36] <sebsebseb> Flannel: depends what they are of
[22:36] <puff> Is anybody familiar with xsane?  I scanned this letter to forward it to my mortgage company.  I saved it as PDFs and as it turns out the dang PDFs are 1.5MB for each page.
[22:36] <joshua1982> ubottu, I just want to know how I could make my home computer download the latest versions of some distros
[22:37] <Guest92442> sebsebseb: exactly, so just because hes using torrents doesnt mean that hes using it for piracy - he could be using it to get a copy of ubuntu or centos or something for all you know :)
[22:37] <sebsebseb> Guest92442: yeah I know you can download distro ISO's from torrents for example
[22:37] <joshua1982> ;-)
[22:37] <Guest92442> sebsebseb: yeah
[22:37] <puff> Is there any easy way to open it and save it as a smaller file?
[22:37] <joshua1982> that was funny, silly me
[22:37] <Guest92442> sebsebseb: actually uou can actualluy
[22:37] <ActionParsnip> albn: ou could try disabling acpi
[22:37] <Guest92442> sebsebseb* you can actually download ISOs from the bit torrent network of centos and things i think
[22:38] <Guest92442> dunno about ubuntu
[22:38] <fatbrain> (grub2) When I boot my computer I end up in grub-bash shell like terminal. How/where do I tell grub2 where to boot from? :S
[22:38] <powertool08> puff: Look for some settings on the max number of colors, if you change from millions of colors to 256 or black and white, it makes a smaller picture. You can also reduce the dpi for a smaller filesize
[22:38] <Guest92442> fatbrain: grub.conf
[22:38] <albn> acpi?
[22:38] <Flannel> fatbrain: Are you running Karmic?
[22:38]  * albn googles
[22:38] <puff> powertool08: Yah, but what tool should I open it with?
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> fatbrain: i'd ask in #ubuntu+1  grub2 is default in karmic
[22:38] <fatbrain> Flannel: No, 9.04.
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> !bootoptions | albn
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> fatbrain: yes but as it is default, they will have more insight
[22:39] <albn> ActionParsnip, ahh ok. I got webmin, so I can look fot it in there
[22:39] <fatbrain> ActionParsnip: Yes, I got that much, thanks =)
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> fatbrain: http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-upgrade-to-grub2-on-ubuntu-jaunty.html
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> albn: webmin is NOT advised in ubuntu or debian
[22:40] <powertool08> puff: I have an icon in my menu for it, but I think its 'xsane' from a terminal
[22:40] <albn> ActionParsnip, now you tell me, heh
[22:40] <ActionParsnip> !webmin | albn
[22:41] <albn> ebox
[22:41]  * albn googles ebox
[22:41] <puff> powertool08: So xsane should be able to re-open and adust the PDF that it created?
[22:41] <puff> Hm, apparently not.
[22:42] <puff> Ah,g imp can open it and import the image.
[22:42] <powertool08> puff: no, but you can change your scan settings and rescan it. If you want to change the pdf itself, maybe pdfedit or evince would have that ability?
[22:42] <puff> Then I'd have to go dig it out of my files again.
[22:42] <guntbert> albn: mind you "see ebox instead" doesn't mean ebox is a webmin replacement - but look for yourself
[22:42] <SnowyCheetah750> Question: If I install Netboox Remix, will I be able to use all the same programs I could with the desktop version?
[22:43] <albn> guntbert, thanks for the tip.
[22:43] <vigo> SnowyCheetah750: Most likely , yes
[22:43] <SnowyCheetah750> vigo: thank you
[22:44] <guntbert> albn: you are welcome - but ...
[22:45] <albn> guntbert, yeah?
[22:46] <ydur> hi there! does anybody play, create or mix music with ubuntu?! i'm intrested in mashing up.. what kinda app could i use?
[22:47] <burf> how do i know my version of X.org/XFree86
[22:47] <burf> is that my version of ubuntu?
[22:47] <vigo> ydur: Look at the MythBunu or Studio Ubuntu packages. They are in the repositories, most any Ubuntu release can be used with or without those packages.
[22:47] <guntbert> albn: well I tried it and was disappointed - its (from my point of view) a totally different thing with a very different philosophy, it uses its own config files, not those of the system,...
[22:48] <dennda> Hi. I just connected both, an apple wireless mouse and an apple wireless keyboard to my laptop via bluetooth (and it seems to have worked, but it accepts no input from either of those)

[22:50] <ydur> vigo: mm..it's not really what i was talking about..do you remember stuffs like tracktorstudio on windows?
[22:50] <puff> powertoo108: Yoiks, Gimp "save as png, compression 9" got it down to 1,627K.  Posterize first, then save as png, got it down to 56K.

[22:51] <ydur> vigo: thanx
[22:52] <burf> can anyone tell me where my /lib/modules/drivers/ folder is - im looking for /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/ but only folder inside the X11R6 folder is 'bin'
[22:53] <linxeh> burf: where did you get that information from ?
[22:53] <burf> Copy "sis_drv.o" (sis_drv.so for X.org 6.9 and later) over the existing one which usually is located at /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/. Starting with X.org 7.0, the file is located at /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers.
[22:53] <vigo> ydur: Here is the official page, http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/derivatives

[22:55] <burf> thx linxeh - wont let me paste is that cos i need to login as root
[22:56] <greys0cks> yellowrooster: This might work: find /foo/ -type f | grep -v .mp3$
[22:56] <Caforinga> vigo no
[22:57] <linxeh> burf: do it from the command line, and use sudo cp
[22:57] <linxeh> burf: sudo cp sis_drv.o /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers
[22:57] <vigo> Caforinga: From windows can you see the 9.04 in Add/Remove programs?

[22:59] <vigo> Caforinga: I think that is the WUBI, otherwise it woulod not show up there.
[22:59] <burf> or am i being silly?
[23:00] <cmp> Gnea,  i need to set up my Evaluation mail on ubuntu and i dont know how - can you guide me please.?
[23:01] <Inf_lappy_> sin360, i think MDF files can be mounted like an ordinary ISO file: sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 <file> <mountpoint>
[23:01] <psypointer> hi
[23:01] <vigo> Caforinga: I would first download the official CD from Canonical/Ubuntu, burn it, (instructions are included on that page) then install it , that way you would have a dual boot setup where each OS is independent of the other.
[23:02] <psypointer> i'm searching a modern flatbed scanner completly supported by sane for scanning normal office documents. price shouldn't be > 200$. i'm not able to find a modern usb scanner supported by sane :S

[23:02] <SnowyCheetah750> One time, after updating everything and then clicking the button to install jaunty (over the Internet), the entire system was upgraded to Jaunty - or so I thought. The install failed when it was nearly done and I had to revert to 8.10. Any idea as to why the install failed?

[23:04] <hahahan> Goude: Rytmbox has an option in its menu to clean up duplicates
[23:04] <vigo> Caforinga: The instructions for unistalling the WUBI are pretty straightfoward, is just like any other Windows Program, but , as always, make backups then proceed with the official documentation.
[23:04] <bruenig> Obituary: people install things much more minimal than blackbox
[23:04] <Gouda> I am not seeing that option in the menu
[23:04] <Obituary> really, but it comes only a bar, nothing at all, uff very hard to create all,xd
[23:05] <SnowyCheetah750> Did anyone see my question?
