[08:07] <Sangrial> got a question if someone can help
[08:07] <FPSDavid> bc, can you PM me to explain the dpkg -i route
[08:07] <hyperstation> hey, anyone know how to disable compiz via terminal plz
[08:07] <hyperstation> no...turn off compiz so that it wont be started automatically... i have display problem with it
[08:07] <bc> FPSDavid: or another nic, which kinda sucks
[08:08] <bostwick> okay, if I reinstall ubuntu 9.04, what steps would I take to install my wireless card? I have the .inf and .sys files on a flashdrive
[08:09] <bc> FPSDavid: dpkg is simple. you download the .deb file for the package you need, then dpkg -i some_foo-1.5.deb. if it complains it needs something, you go download that package and try dpkg -i on /it/ then dpkg -i the original one until it installs without complaining.
[08:09] <chillgates1> anybody installed hotbabe in ubuntu 9 ? :P
[08:09] <FPSDavid> bc: how do i know what packages i need?
[08:09] <bc> FPSDavid: I'd backup whatever possible first though.
[08:09] <nuninoo> chillgates1, whats that?
[08:09] <RHorse> bostwick you could try a gui for ndiswrapper
[08:09] <bc> look up the 'depends' on linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24, which is going to involve a kernel pkg prob
[08:09] <PC-Ente> moin
[08:10] <bostwick> can I get a list of files for ndiswrapper? I only installed 3
[08:10] <chillgates1> hotbabe is a girl's pic .. goes undress of over use of cpu. she remove cloths with the level of heat she feels. lol
[08:10] <bostwick> so maybe I'm missing some
[08:10] <bostwick> i can tell you the file names right now
[08:10] <bc> FPSDavid: (sorry about to fall out of chair sleepy) look up the 'depends' on linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24, which is going to involve a kernel pkg prob
[08:10] <bostwick> ndisgtk_0.8.4-1_i386.deb, ndiswrapper-utils-1.9_1.52-1ubuntu1_i386.deb, ndiswrapper-common_1.52-1ubuntu1_all.deb
[08:10] <FPSDavid> bc: actually, can you partition live? like create a partition, move all my files, fresh install, move my files back, then get rid of the partition?
[08:10]  * nuninoo hehes but heheing might offend the girls here.
[08:11]  * yaris123456789 running on ubuntu!!!!

[08:11] <linny> what are the min system req for ubuntu 9.04 pls
[08:11] <yaris123456789> nuninoo: i really dont know. it didn't work before but now it seemed to work
[08:11] <nuninoo> !offtopic | dude24
[08:11] <bc> FPSDavid: probably
[08:11] <Sangrial> I was using windows as a webserver but switched to ubuntu and I dont have static ip, and I was using everydns but I dont think they have a program for linux
[08:11] <RHorse> bostwick, those are .deb archive files, not the files for the program to run
[08:11] <bostwick> wire a cpu temp to her
[08:11] <bostwick> wat.
[08:12] <dude24> join #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:12] <bc> FPSDavid: did I mention backup? :]
[08:12] <chillgates1> thats the ubuntu girl does undress. no prob to anyone lol.
[08:12] <yaris123456789> the only problem now is getting rid of all the defunct xubuntu on the boot menu
[08:12] <FPSDavid> bc, how lol, i'm the most noob linux guy ever
[08:12] <bostwick> okay so what files do I need to run ndiswrapper?
[08:12] <bostwick> I installed them with uhhh
[08:12] <nuninoo> bostwick hahahaha
[08:12] <dude24> anyone know if shrooms will effect you after getting tossed?
[08:12] <bostwick> (looks for the command)
[08:12] <yaris123456789> if only i can make Ubuntu the first option in my boot menu.
[08:12] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, you can
[08:13] <yaris123456789> Windows Vista, and 5 Xubuntu take up the place
[08:13] <nuninoo> yaris123456789,  by editing grub
[08:13] <bc> FPSDavid: there are a thousand ways.. on backup topic, best would be to check help.ubuntu.com for a backup option that involves a usb disk (if you have one) or some other hdd in the machine which you can use.
[08:13] <bostwick> sudo dpkg -i ndiswrapper-utils_*.deb
[08:13] <bostwick>   sudo dpkg -i ndisgtk_*.deb
[08:13] <Sangrial> i have my own domain registered but dunno how to get it to point to my ubuntu server
[08:13] <yaris123456789> nuninoo: how do i do that ?
[08:13] <hardy-heron_ubun> how can I disable only the distribution upgrade on ubuntu hardy heron?
[08:13] <nuninoo> yaris backup /boot/grub/menu.lst first
[08:13] <bostwick> I have two hard drives, one has linux one has xp
[08:13] <chillgates1> there are some bugs ubuntu9. apps closing themselves without running files sometimes.
[08:13] <RHorse> bostwick I'm sure you installed it OK. It's a little tricky to use it though.
[08:14] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, then do $sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:14] <bc> FPSDavid: you may be able to set apt sources.list to your new 9.04 cdrom and install from there (apt-get dist-upgrade), but I've never done that.
[08:14] <bostwick> is there a free version on linuxant?
[08:14] <bostwick> err
[08:14] <bostwick> off**
[08:14] <bostwick> err
[08:14] <yaris123456789> nuninoo: okay
[08:14] <FloodBot1> bostwick: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:14] <bostwick> of*****
[08:14] <linny> Sangrial: you normallyt have a dynamic dns feature included on your router if no router then you can just reg you external ip with the dns provider
[08:14] <FPSDavid> bc: hrmm, i wanna give that a shot before i attempt to partition
[08:15] <bc> FPSDavid: synaptic? might be easiest/quickest to figure out since i'm literally about to fall over lol
[08:15] <yaris123456789> nuninoo: whereabouts in the menu.lst can i edit the menus
[08:15] <dude24> exit
[08:15] <bc> FPSDavid: hang on
[08:15] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, menu.lst is a txt file, are you looking at it now?
[08:15] <yaris123456789> yes
[08:15] <bostwick> okay, lets say I reinstall ubuntu, what files do I need to install my wireless drivers?
[08:15] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, scroll at the bottom
[08:15] <bostwick> i have the wireless .inf and .sys files
[08:15] <Sangrial> can anyone help?
[08:15] <nuninoo> absolute bottom
[08:16] <yaris123456789> okay
[08:16] <tehdave> I'm having issues connecting out to a windows share on my roommate's PC. I can connect from his PC to my shares (Via Samba) just fine, and can connect to his shares on his computer via my Vista laptop, but can't see anything in Nautilus when I try to navigate to his PC
[08:16] <RHorse> bostwick you need rigitoni.dll
[08:16] <RainbowW> so i have a stack of usb hard drives i want to mount after boot, but listing them in /etc/fstab like a normal drive doesn't work because that's read before the usb subsystem comes available. what's the solution?
[08:16] <linny> Sangrial:you normally have a dynamic dns feature included on your router if no router then you can just reg you external ip with the dns provider
[08:16] <bostwick> ...
[08:16] <hardy-heron_ubun> how can I disable only the distribution upgrade on ubuntu hardy heron?
[08:16] <ubUSB> hello
[08:16] <FPSDavid> bc: ok, pen/paper ready :D
[08:16] <bostwick> i really doubt linux uses .dll's
[08:16] <RHorse> and parmesan.so
[08:17] <bostwick> :C
[08:17] <yaris123456789> title           Other operating systems:
[08:17] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, awesome just cut paste then save - it's pretty straight forward. keep in mind though that they are bunched up with their options. so copy the options along with the title of OS
[08:17] <tsukasa_> anyone know of a good lightweight music player that can do internet streams and podcast retrieval?
[08:17] <tsukasa_> im just not feeling amarok
[08:17] <ubUSB> can I make a bootable kingston 8 GB USB just by copying the ISO_
[08:18] <RainbowW> ubUSB, no.
[08:18] <nmvictor> chillgates1:is hotebabes in the ubuntu repositories,would better with her on my desktop.My CPU stays overheated like hell,think that would do her great....
[08:18] <Firefishe> hey
[08:18] <ubUSB> how then, RainbowW_
[08:18] <yaris123456789> nuninoo: sorry cut paste what ?
[08:18] <SirErugor> ubUSB, if on ubuntu use the System > Administration > USB Startup Disk Creator
[08:18] <Firefishe> oops...wrong window...sorry
[08:18] <bostwick> is it too much to ask for self installing ndiswrapper
[08:18] <bostwick> like, not 5 hundred files I need to download and install with terminal
[08:18] <yaris123456789> wait let me just google it
[08:18] <nuninoo> yaris you see the title?
[08:18] <yaris123456789> and figure it out
[08:18] <bostwick> ~_~
[08:19] <ubUSB> Im on hardy livecd, SIrErugor
[08:19] <johe_work_> hi
[08:19] <TheNano> tsukasa_: audacious maybe
[08:19] <nuninoo> title Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-11-generic
[08:19] <johe_work_> have a question, how to fix an segfault in chgrp
[08:19] <glicks> hey whats a good p2p app for linux?
[08:19] <TheNano> tsukasa_: it looks like winamp
[08:19] <glicks> not torrent
[08:19] <glicks> like filesharing network
[08:19] <ziroday> !p2p | glicks
[08:19] <nmvictor> tsukasa:give rhythmbox a shot.you got have gnome desktop environment though.
[08:19] <RHorse> I'm rhapsodic
[08:19] <bostwick> how do I compile in linux?
[08:19] <RainbowW> oh is there an upper limit to the number of hard drives i can attach?
[08:20] <ziroday> RainbowW: as much as your mobo can hold
[08:20] <aurilliance> firefox flash playback is really jumpy, I've tried notfree, the recommended plugin and free plugin. Jaunty 4g ram, dual 2.4ghz, nvidia 9600. Any suggestions plz?
[08:20] <RainbowW> ziroday: usb drives.
[08:20] <SirErugor> dont pm me, ubUSB
[08:20] <TheNano> bostwick: google for you specific app. + compile , normally you write make
[08:20] <ziroday> RainbowW: then its the same
[08:20] <nuninoo> yaris look here. i put jaunty on top. dont copy this,
[08:21] <glicks> whats one of the better filesharing clients? which one do you recommend?
[08:21] <bc> FPSDavid: I don't know how to do it in synaptic. if update manager (in one of your menus) doesn't pick up the cd-rom, then you might be left with editing sources.list. that discussion would last a lot longer than I can stick around for tonight.
[08:21] <FPSDavid> bc: alright :(
[08:21] <RHorse> glicks #mp3passion for me
[08:21] <darthanubis> glicks, please use google for such a query. It has been beat to death
[08:21] <SirErugor> ubUSB, but you would have to format your usb disk and then copy the contents of the ISO to the disk. rememberto make it bootable too.
[08:21] <darthanubis> glicks, search ubuntuforums
[08:21] <bc> FPSDavid: I'm *certain* someone here can help you do that though.
[08:22] <nmvictor> aurilliance:more info plz....
[08:22] <ubUSB> how do i format irt and make it bootable_
[08:22] <yaris123456789> hey guys is it normal for my laptop fan to be less active on ubuntu than linux ? it seems like my notebook is a lot more quieter running ubuntu
[08:22] <bostwick> okay I downloaded the official ndiswrapper from there website (not the links in the wikiubunutu)
[08:22] <bostwick> brb
[08:22] <Firefishe> yaris:  ubuntu *is* linux ;)
[08:22] <darthanubis> on ubuntu than linux ?
[08:22] <nmvictor> glicks:Filezilla maybe.
[08:22] <ubUSB> is there any explanation on that online SirErugor_
[08:22] <nuninoo> vista...
[08:22] <yaris123456789> Firefishe: sorry i mean vista
[08:22] <bostwick> can I run linux on ubuntu @__@
[08:22] <TheNano> yaris123456789:  linux ?? which dist. , and yes
[08:22] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, well if you ran Vista before. then I'd think it would be quieter now :)
[08:22] <yaris123456789> *ubuntu than vista!
[08:22] <bostwick> (not a serious question)
[08:22] <koala8919> hello
[08:23] <darthanubis> bostwick, google that
[08:23] <yaris123456789> Notebook is quieter on Ubuntu than Vista! is this normal ?
[08:23] <bc> FPSDavid: or there may be an easier way which I'm not aware of. :)
[08:23] <chillgates1> koala ?? :P
[08:23] <nuninoo> anyone have the same problem as me? ubuntu starts muted. i unmute it. sounds goes on. i reboot. its muted again
[08:23] <SirErugor> ubUSB, sure.. google it :)
[08:23] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, yes
[08:23] <TheNano> yaris123456789: YA , it is, because Ubuntu is nicer , lighter and smarter
[08:23] <bostwick> hehe
[08:23] <yaris123456789> nice
[08:23] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, be aware though that a hot processor isn't always nice
[08:23] <chillgates1> i have some other prob nuninoo
[08:23] <RainbowW> damn. back to fry's for another case. this one is hosed. :-(
[08:23] <darthanubis> :/ oh brother
[08:23] <nnull> is chmod 770 fullaccess to owner/group with no access to everyone-else?
[08:24] <TheNano> yaris123456789: which netbook do you have ?
[08:24] <koala8919> How do I disable the kernel messages at bootup and purely the graphical loader only? The kernel line already has "quiet" but it still shows up
[08:24] <chillgates1> i play an mp3 .. while playing i open another mp3 and first one closes including app
[08:24] <nmvictor> yaris123456789:isnt that the beauty of ubuntu?everythings cool dude.just relax,i think that indicates perfect running kernel.
[08:24] <yaris123456789> TheNano: LG xnote
[08:24] <yaris123456789> okay hibernate in ubuntu a problem ?
[08:24] <aurilliance> nmvictor: I've tried flashplugin-nonfree, flashplugin-installer and adobe-flashplugin from synaptic package manager with firefox, none of them resolve the problem, which is whenever I try to play back flash content online in firefox, it is alkmost unusable. Youtube is just understandable, but any flash game or more intensiveflash app just lags down to about 2 fps.
[08:24] <FPSDavid> bc: i went to the update manager and it tells me to insert "the disc labeled "Mythbuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ i386"
[08:25] <TheNano> koala8919: I kinda like those texts ;-)
[08:25] <aurilliance> nmvictor: ok if I pm you?
[08:25] <nuninoo> chillgates1, thats weird
[08:25] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, no it works like a charm
[08:25] <yaris123456789> nice nice
[08:25] <FPSDavid> bc: mine is called that, minus the _J J_ part, but its 9.04 i386, doesnt work though
[08:25] <yaris123456789> yes...finally i think this is a perfect OS
[08:25] <chillgates1> i think some apps or drivers effecting others. a reboot may solve such probs.
[08:25] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, nice to have you join us ;)
[08:25] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, nothing is perfect...
[08:25] <yaris123456789> will have to go back to windows for occasional gaming however
[08:25] <koala8919> TheNano: But it aint normal since before it was not showing on the middle of the graphical loader..I wish to remove it...;)
[08:25] <X-TaZ> Hi. Someone here know where I can find some server-desktops-router ... icons to make a beautifull networking shema ?
[08:25] <xEnt> has anyone ever brought a book from amazon befor?
[08:26] <aurilliance> xEnt: yes
[08:26] <nmvictor> koala8919:i think you would achieve that with start up manager,you have it installed?
[08:26] <tehdave> yaris123456789, not necessarily...have you heard of wine?
[08:26] <xEnt> strange, trying to order one to australia
[08:26] <xEnt> says something about it won't allow me too
[08:26] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, give Cedega a try maybe
[08:26] <yaris123456789> yes i've heard of wine but than its not 100% compatible with all games so i am told
[08:26] <simoncpu> hi
[08:26] <darthanubis> whats with all the NON-support for ubuntu queries?
[08:26] <simoncpu> what happened to the system tools menu?
[08:26] <aurilliance> xEnt: I am in australia and it worked fine
[08:26] <simoncpu> even if i enable it, it doesn't show up
[08:26] <bc> FPSDavid: that's a good sign
[08:26] <RainbowW> darthanubis, you get what you're paying for.
[08:26]  * simoncpu has upgraded to 9.04
[08:26]  * nuninoo hehes again
[08:27] <xEnt> strange
[08:27] <xEnt> hold on ill see what happens when i try
[08:27] <FPSDavid> bc: it wont let me past that message though
[08:27] <darthanubis> RainbowW, what are you talking about?
[08:27] <koala8919> nmvictor: what startup manager? Where can I find it?
[08:27] <RichiV> HELP! i just upgraded to IntrepiFX drive works like a drea, but my sound is totally gone!
[08:27] <aurilliance> nmvictor: ^ did you see my message?
[08:27] <yaris123456789> i kinda regret giving only 8gb to ubuntu installation. should've have allocated more. but than again before i installed i didn't know how good ubuntu was
[08:28] <darthanubis> RainbowW, the channel is supposed to be on topic. That has zero to do with price of admission
[08:28] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, well you can go back and do it? or use gparted to maybe shrink it.. but I'd do the first option
[08:28] <aurilliance> yaris123456789: boot live disk, use gparted to resize?
[08:28] <yaris123456789> oh you dont need to reinstall ?
[08:28] <xEnt> i see
[08:28] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, not really
[08:28] <aurilliance> yaris123456789: I resized my ubuntu partition yesterday without re-installing
[08:28] <xEnt> its not allowing me to ship books that arnt at amazon
[08:28] <yaris123456789> very nice!
[08:28] <xEnt> but are in the search engine
[08:28] <xEnt> at other places
[08:29] <aurilliance> xEnt: ah
[08:29]  * nuninoo says to yaris123456789 Linux is a journey. knowing it requires patience...persistence... and dedication. rome was not built in a day...
[08:29] <darthanubis> I'm here to help with ubuntu related questions, not "whats the beset mp3 player" "have anyone else used Amazon" shesh
[08:29] <darthanubis> !best
[08:29] <yaris123456789> nuninoo: hehe
[08:29] <RichiV> HelpHELP! i just upgraded to IntrepiFX drive works like a drea, but my sound is totally gone!
[08:29] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, seriously it requires heaps of patience
[08:29] <mgph> has anyone got the new Amazon Kindle Dx ?
[08:29] <aurilliance> nuninoo: took me 7 hours for 320 gb
[08:29] <ikonia> RichiV: do you mean ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex ?

[08:30] <capitalidea> I am logged into my Ubuntu account at the moment because it logs in automatically but I would like to change my passwd which I just forgot (the first time in 8 years)
[08:30] <RichiV> ikonia: yes
[08:30] <ubUSB> one more question SirErugor... should I make a ms/dos/xp fsystem or is it irrelevant?
[08:30] <ikonia> !sound > RichiV
[08:30] <nuninoo> darthanubis, great! can you help me with my problem?
[08:30] <capitalidea> how do I do I change it from my account?

[08:31] <SirErugor> ubUSB,  to be on the safe side.. use vfat :)
[08:31] <darthanubis> nuninoo, I read, that, I have no answer for you. But if I googled your query, I'd have a list of related bugs or at least a entry in the forums
[08:31] <aurilliance> RichiV: I'm guessing ubottu is a bot, which can be given commands using !sfsdfsdf
[08:31] <mgph> if you have, can share your experience with it ? as I'm willing to give it as a gift to my mom
[08:31] <nmvictor> aurilliance:or i'll do it
[08:32] <tehdave> !offtopic  mgph

[08:32] <nuninoo> darthanubis, ok. do you play tremulous?
[08:32] <ubUSB> and is it already bootable by having ext3, SirErugor?
[08:32] <darthanubis> nuninoo, yes
[08:33] <yaris123456789> nuninoo: i know. i've gave up linux with mandrake about 4 years ago. then i started working with SSH putty for web development stuff. i still dont know whole bunch about linux
[08:33] <SirErugor> ubUSB, doesnt have to be. you should make it bootable by setting the flag
[08:33] <mgph> what IDE you guys think the best in Ubuntu for C++ programs ?
[08:33] <zedster> anyone know how to get the intel e1000e lan to work on linux?
[08:33] <nuninoo> darthanubis, ahh you must be LordAnubis
[08:33] <ubUSB> okay, thank you
[08:33] <darthanubis> In 9.04 I also had to go through my volume control panel and make sure nothing was turned all the way down or muted.  I think I had to unmute the master volume and turn PCM Playback (under HDA Intel) up.
[08:33] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, Linux has changed much since. but a lot has to be worked on
[08:33] <FPSDavid> ok guys, i need halp
[08:33] <mgph> I don't want only the text editors like emacs, instead I want the complete IDE software like VS in windows
[08:33] <darthanubis> nuninoo, Why do you say that?
[08:34] <mgph> to write C++ programs
[08:34] <nuninoo> darthanubis, just guessing
[08:34] <ikonia> mgph: look at eclipse
[08:34] <nuninoo> darthanubis, ^^
[08:34] <SirErugor> ubuntulog, use the 'a' option in fdisk for instance
[08:34] <TheNano> koala8919: don't know you maybe have a proposed kernel , with that debug info on
[08:34] <SirErugor> sorry ubUSB  ..
[08:34] <ubUSB> SirErugor: flag)emblem_ hardy doesn-t have that one
[08:34] <darthanubis> nuninoo, I'm confused. Sound, tremulous, LordAnubis?
[08:34] <mgph> ikonia: thanks for your advice but eclipse is more dedicated for java ? just my opinion
[08:35] <ikonia> mgph: it's an excellent c++ tool
[08:35] <FPSDavid> i have a mythbuntu 9.04 CD burned, to upgrade. i load Update Manager, and it tells me to insert "the disc labeled "Mythbuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ i386" but my disc is called "Mythbuntu 9.04 i386" and it wont let me past that message. what do i do?
[08:35] <nuninoo> darthanubis, its ok thanks
[08:35] <mgph> ikonia: ok how about NetBean ?
[08:35] <SirErugor> ubUSB, fdisk the device and use the 'a' option then save to disk.
[08:35] <zedster> mgph: that use to be true, its become a general ide with many packages for things like c++ and python
[08:35] <ikonia> mgph: I think that's very java specific, but I don't know
[08:35] <darthanubis> FPSDavid, insert the CD
[08:35] <ghostknife> Why is ubuntu 8.04 maintained till 2011, and 9.04 only till 2010?
[08:35] <FPSDavid> darthanubis: its inserted
[08:35] <nmvictor_> koala8919:its in the repositories.use google to locate it,the ubuntu packages page holding it.then install it,its cool.
[08:36] <nmvictor> koala8919:its in the repositories.use google to locate it,the ubuntu packages page holding it.then install it,its cool.
[08:36] <nuninoo> ghostknife, because it is LTs
[08:36] <ikonia> !lts > ghostknife
[08:36] <mgph> ikonia: I've used it when I was doing my Java class projects
[08:36] <FPSDavid> darthanubis, it just doesnt recognize it in upgrade manager because the name is different, i think
[08:36] <darthanubis> FPSDavid, #ubuntu-mythtv
[08:36] <zedster> mgph: http://www.eclipse.org/cdt/
[08:36] <FPSDavid> nobody is ever there
[08:36] <nuninoo> ghostknife, for people who like stability rather than cutting edge
[08:36] <ubUSB> SirErugor: where-s fdisk? gparted?
[08:36] <darthanubis> FPSDavid, you need to make sure it is the right disk, or just use synaptic to uncheck cdroms period.
[08:36] <zedster> anyone know how to get the e1000e chipset working in linux?
[08:36] <mgph> ikonia: I'd say NetBean is an excellent tool for Java at least and saw options for other languages as well like C++, PHP, Python
[08:37] <Nexus> Is there anyone here who could talk to me via PM about ubuntu? I'm new to the OS and have some questions I'd like to ask.
[08:37] <ghostknife> nuninoo: Oh, so it's a different version of 8.04. Just a more mature 8.04, called "8.04 LTS" ?
[08:37] <mgph> ikonia: thanks and gonna try it soon
[08:37] <ikonia> mgph: why are you telling me ??? you're asking for the interface
[08:37] <ikonia> Nexus: just ask your questions in here
[08:37] <nuninoo> ghostknife, no its one and the same thing
[08:37] <SirErugor> ubUSB, /sbin/fdisk
[08:37] <darthanubis> nuninoo, In 9.04 I also had to go through my volume control panel and make sure nothing was turned all the way down or muted.  I think I had to unmute the master volume and turn PCM Playback (under HDA Intel) up.
[08:37] <FPSDavid> darthanubis, i'm triyng to upgrade via the CD, as the network interface on my motherboard odesnt work in the current veersion i;m running, but it works in 9.04. i dont see many other options
[08:37] <mgph> zedster: thanks for the link
[08:37] <Nexus> ikonia: the chat seems kind of crowded, don't you think?
[08:37] <rAUNCH> Good morning, could someone help me i got a little problem with permission in ubuntu.. trying to install something and the program just keep telling me i cant create a folder because my permission denied
[08:37] <zedster> Nexus: read the forums trust me, unless you know what you want to ask and its very very narrow
[08:37] <ikonia> Nexus: if you ask your questions people will respond with your name, it's quite easy to follow
[08:38] <zedster> rAUNCH: run it with sudo
[08:38] <nuninoo> darthanubis, yep. i think i will just make a start up script that would set volume to where it should be
[08:38] <darthanubis> FPSDavid, upgrading without a netowrk connection is not something I have ever tried
[08:38] <darthanubis> it aint that serious
[08:38] <rAUNCH> zedster: i did ran it with sudo
[08:38] <darthanubis> best to just clean install
[08:38] <KingKimi> Hi.. i am not getting  OGLE in synaptic ... how to make it appear ? upgarded to 904 yesterday
[08:38] <darthanubis> nuninoo, no need for a script
[08:38] <zedster> rAUNCH:  sudo chmod a+x what you are trying to run?
[08:38] <ikonia> !info ogle
[08:38] <ikonia> KingKimi: what do you mean ogle ?
[08:39] <FPSDavid> darthanubis, do you know about partitioning, can i PM you?
[08:39] <darthanubis> !info ogle-gui
[08:39] <nuninoo> darthanubis, well manually adjusting volume everytime i startup is not really fun
[08:39] <KingKimi> ikonia i installed this in synaptic in ibex 810 to play dvds
[08:39] <ikonia> KingKimi: what is the package name
[08:39] <darthanubis> nuninoo, it should be sticking, once done the right way. A script only masks a problem?
[08:39] <rAUNCH> zedster: thats what i did the it installed the program.. the point of the program is to update another program and when i try to update it it says i dont have permission :X
[08:39] <SirErugor> darthanubis, it's not in the repo.. you're welcome to port it ;)
[08:40] <yaris123456789> hey guys how do i open up files on my windows vista through ubuntu ?
[08:40] <yaris123456789> mount/ ?
[08:40] <darthanubis> FPSDavid, you have some major issues there. I don't do CDROM upgrades
[08:40] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, you have to mount the partition where vista is
[08:40] <KingKimi> ikonia: i installed "OGLE" from synaptic to play DVD movies ... because vlc, totem with all plugins did not play dvd audio... but this OGLE did
[08:40] <ikonia> KingKimi: what was the package name you wanted
[08:40] <zedster> rAUNCH: not sure then, you can go su and try from the root account just be careful
[08:40] <FPSDavid> darthanubis, yeah i know. but if im gonna clean install, is it possible to create a new partition, move all my files over to it, clean install, move my files back, then remove the partition (easily?)
[08:40] <nuninoo> darthanubis, ummm... what is the right way to adjust a volume slider?
[08:41] <DJones> KingKimi: ogle is a dead package in Jaunty now https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/ogle/0.9.2-5.3
[08:41] <yaris123456789> Okay. i need a suggestion for a thing to watch videos & something equivalent to WinAmp ? any suggestions ?
[08:41] <darthanubis> nuninoo, it is just that your settings are not sticking
[08:41] <SirErugor> nuninoo, amixer
[08:41] <KingKimi> ikonia i cant understand your question..  i read in forum and searched synaptic for OGLE and installed it in 81.0 to play dvds // but its not in current ubuntu ?
[08:41] <KingKimi> DJones: oh ! ok ..
[08:41] <zedster> yaris123456789: vlc or mplayer+gui
[08:41] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, yes
[08:41] <darthanubis> yaris123456789, you really need google-fu
[08:41] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, how would i go about doing that?
[08:42] <zedster> e1000e chipset anyone one?
[08:42] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, xmms2 audacious amarok vlc
[08:42] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, i recommend vlc
[08:42] <JackWinter> a quick question, does ubuntu have a packaged kernel compiled with PREEMPT and dynamic ticks options ?
[08:42] <DJones> KingKimi: You may find that there is a ppa for it, but reading up on it, i get the impression its obsolete and hasn't been updated for a number of years
[08:42] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, use rhythmbox for audio playing
[08:42] <darthanubis> FPSDavid, getting walked through a partition is not a good idea.
[08:42] <KingKimi> DJones: so what s the alternate to OGLE that can play DVd ?
[08:42] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, that is dangerous though. do you have an external drive?
[08:42] <dsdeiz> !info xmms2
[08:43] <darthanubis> If partitioning is new to you. Either start reading, or clean install
[08:43] <KingKimi> !ppa > KingKimi
[08:43] <yaris123456789> okay thanks
[08:43] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, not one large enough :(
[08:43] <nuninoo> SirErugor, do you mean aumix?
[08:43] <DJones> KingKimi: I don't play dvd's, so I'm not the best person to ask
[08:43] <dsdeiz> xmms2 is the server?
[08:43] <KingKimi> DJones: dont you watch dvd movies ? :P
[08:43] <ubUSB> SirErugor: should I fdisk 'a' the USB? before or after copying the ISO into it?
[08:43] <KingKimi> !dvd > KingKimi
[08:43] <SirErugor> nuninoo, not really :p
[08:43] <pyrohotdog> Just upgraded to Jaunty...and it boots to a black screen!??!
[08:43] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, it's possible but not recommended. I really would recommend something safer like another hdd?
[08:43] <glicks> is there an easy way to download videos from youtube
[08:43] <glicks> ?
[08:43] <darthanubis> ppl stillwatch DVDs on their PC?
[08:43] <tehdave> when I try to browse to my roommate's computer via Nautilus, under "Network Servers" his system shows up, but nothing is there when I try to browse to it (By NetBIOS name)...but when I browse to smb://<IP_ADDRESS> it shows his shares properly...I'm curious why I can't just browse to his shares
[08:44] <FPSDavid> yeah, i can try that nuninoo
[08:44] <nuninoo> darthanubis, i do
[08:44] <SirErugor> ubUSB, before. but It doesnt matter. and btw. dont copy the ISO.. copy the contents of it. mount it as loop and do it. buut search the net for a solution, would be best.
[08:44] <DJones> !players | KingKimi This might help, it lists some video players available through synaptic
[08:44] <dsdeiz> then what's the client to use in xmss2?
[08:44] <dsdeiz> s/xmss2/xmms2
[08:45] <ubUSB> I don't undersatnd anything of this
[08:45] <nuninoo> yaris123456789, vlc does video, audio, playlists and the lot. $sudo apt-get install vlc
[08:45] <darthanubis> tehdave, you have to edit /etc/samba/smb.conf to show "host" last on it's line with bind and wins
[08:45] <darthanubis> nuninoo, keep holding it's hand. You'll be hear all night
[08:46] <KingKimi> i cant find libdvdcss2 in synaptic ......... any bot factoid for libdvdcss2 ?
[08:46] <darthanubis> what do i use to read webpages, what do I use, to unzip files, what do i use to add numbers, etc:/
[08:46] <Guest4432> medibuntu
[08:46] <Madpilot> ubottu, dvd | KingKimi
[08:46] <Guest4432> is the solution for codec-probs
[08:46] <darthanubis> KingKimi, look into medibuntu
[08:46] <zedster> KingKimi: requires restricted repos
[08:46] <yaris123456789> hey guys i want to do a mount of windows hd. how do i use gparted to find out the device name ?
[08:46] <KingKimi> zedster:  i installed ubuntu-restricted-extras
[08:47] <darthanubis> KingKimi, look into medibuntu
[08:47] <KingKimi> darthanubis: how to ?
[08:47] <darthanubis> GOOGLE
[08:47] <nuninoo> !w32codecs
[08:47] <KingKimi> !medubuntu > KingKimi
[08:47] <cycrosism> www.tinyurl.com/bqqrvx
[08:47] <tehdave> darthanubis, so "name resolve order = lmhosts wins bcast host"? also, are the semicolons line removals (commenting them out) or fine where they are?
[08:47] <darthanubis> everyone here has a web browser with a search bar, use it
[08:47] <nuninoo> darthanubis yes you are right
[08:47] <Guest4432> ubuntuusers.de and look in the wiki for medibuntu or codecs  ;D
[08:48] <KingKimi> darthanubis: before that , if theres a factoid that you can send, wont it be little useful ?
[08:48] <KingKimi> darthanubis: sorry.........
[08:48] <darthanubis> tehdave, yes, your smart, remove the semicolon, and make host=hosts
[08:48] <darthanubis> KingKimi, i gave you the keys to the palace

[08:49] <cycrosism> Why
[08:49] <zedster> anyone get linux to run on an optoplex 760?
[08:50] <KingKimi> why skype is not in synaptic ??
[08:50] <nmvictor> glicks:yea,if you are using firefox,the video download helper plugin would do.

[08:50] <Sebboh> zed, that old dell machine?  No doubt people have.  Did you have a problem?
[08:50] <zedster> yes, its new
[08:50] <pyrohotdog> Anyone know why my system boots to a black screen after dist-upgrade?
[08:50] <zedster> the intel 825xx chipset won't read
[08:51] <KingKimi> cycrosism: a video ????
[08:51] <Sebboh> KingKimi, visit skype.com for details--skype isn't open source software, but if you want to install it you can, via a few different methods.
[08:51] <cycrosism> Why not
[08:51] <zedster> we want to use it at work to grab the macs without having to load windows or open the towers, tried ubntu and damn small
[08:51] <darthanubis> KingKimi, Skype is NOT free software thats why
[08:51] <KingKimi> darthanubis: i can download skype for Free without filling out forms to pay USDs ..
[08:52]  * darthanubis JC
[08:52] <KingKimi> ???
[08:52] <zedster> !FOSS
[08:52] <zaggynl> As free as we can make it, the rest is jailed.
[08:52] <darthanubis> as in proprietary????????
[08:52] <zaggynl> yes!!!!!!!!!!
[08:52] <Madpilot> KingKimi, there's an important difference between free (no money) and Free (open-source code).
[08:53] <zedster> skype is a bad program, its built on back of the tech that drove kazza
[08:53] <Sebboh> zedster, dunno.  Try some simpler liveCD.  DSL is..  Look, it's a low quality product.  And the ubuntu live CD is complicated.. so.. dunno, there are other options.
[08:53] <kz> is ubuntu better than vista
[08:53] <zedster> Sebboh: hmm... any suggestions? I actually would prefer not to have a gui in this case
[08:53] <darthanubis> zedster, try Puppy
[08:53] <pyrohotdog> kz: some say matter opinion...
[08:53] <kaola_linux> The splashscreen doesn't finish it's loading just like the before instead initscripts info shows up. Is there a way to revert it back and only the splashscreen shows?
[08:54] <Sebboh> yeah dunno about kazza, but, Skype is pretty crappy...
[08:54] <darthanubis> kz, cmon, man, try harder
[08:54] <kz> lol
[08:54] <darthanubis> !best
[08:54] <kz> not trolling
[08:54] <RainbowW> so i have a stack of usb hard drives i want to mount after boot, but listing them in /etc/fstab like a normal drive doesn't work because that's read before the usb subsystem comes available. what's the solution?
[08:54] <zedster> unless its a kernal level issue in which case I'm boned till it updates :-(
[08:54] <pyrohotdog> kz: It's all how you look at it...pay money for a broken system and pay money to add apps...or do it all for free and have it work...
[08:54] <ikonia> kz: that depend on your personal experience, try it
[08:54] <nuninoo> darthanubis, do you think its a good idea to run gnome-alsamixer as sudo?
[08:54] <kz> downloaded the ubuntu iso the other day, just wondering - i have an iphone, are there programs available that will let me use it? without using WINE or w/e
[08:55] <darthanubis> nuninoo, it won't hurt
[08:55] <nmvictor> well,this same clent is kind of lagging me behind or that should be my connection.in short,i dint get the command,i apologise,doyou mind rewritting it please?
[08:55] <zedster> kz: you could run ubuntu on the iphone :-)
[08:55] <Sebboh> My "hardware drivers" (jockey) application is empty.  What's wrong?  I am probably missing packages.
[08:55] <nuninoo> darthanubis
[08:55] <kz> lol
[08:55] <nuninoo> darthanubis ok
[08:55] <TheNano> zedster: you can runt it on G1
[08:55] <nuninoo> Sebboh oh had that problem too.
[08:55] <zedster> TheNano: and on the iphone, I have an n810 so I don't need to hack anything :-)
[08:55] <pyrohotdog> kz: I run Ubuntu on my PS3...
[08:56] <darthanubis> nuninoo, I installed a gui app that let me choose the default sound card. I believe it was asound?
[08:56] <darthanubis> !info asound
[08:56] <Sebboh> somebody did get a linux kernel to boot on the iphone.  Months ago.  I haven't kept up on the news *shrug*.
[08:56] <kz> yeah, i ran damn small linux on my ipod mini a few years ago
[08:56] <zedster> kz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone

[08:56] <kz> cheers
[08:56] <zedster> kz: DSL really? I only ran rockbox on my X5
[08:56] <darthanubis> nuninoo, that should solve your issue I hope
[08:57] <TheNano> pyrohotdog: I have a ps3 hou would you rate ubuntu on it compare to a pc , 1-10
[08:57] <nuninoo> darthanubis ok i will try it thanks :)
[08:57] <darthanubis> nuninoo, sure
[08:57] <kz> i think it was DSL
[08:57] <TheNano> kz: ask ubottu
[08:57] <Madpilot> ubottu, iphone | kz
[08:57] <rAUNCH> how can i run programs as root?
[08:57] <Madpilot> rAUNCH, with sudo
[08:57] <pyrohotdog> TheNano: It works as expected...ssslllooow though due to lack of memory. Would recommend Xubuntu and resource-friendly apps.
[08:57] <kz> yup reading now
[08:58] <merav> unable to upload pictures onto facebook on my crunchbang linux sysxtem
[08:58] <Sebboh> nuninoo, did you figure out how to get items to show up in the "Hardware Drivers" application?
[08:58] <Firefishe> Once in a while,  Some times a year, I yearn for the days, Of free-as-in-beer...Then there were the days, The old times of yore, When RIAA policemen didn't knock on your door...And now here's today, And we sit on the fence, We lament all our tomorrows, And spend all our pence...Now the Gates' are behind us, The Jobs on the side, We've penguins and daemons, In which to abide!
[08:58] <TheNano> pyrohotdog: thanks , I will keep Ubuntu to my PCs .. it rocks  on them
[08:58] <j0nr> hi all, I am trying to setup get_iplayer with rtmpdump. When I try and run get_iplayer with rtmp option, it says that rtmpdump is not found...I think I compiled it correctly and I think I am pointing at the right file...I am using Ubuntu 9.04
[08:59] <TheNano> ubottu: Is ubuntu better than vista ?
[08:59] <matt_> I am having problems with mounting usb drives... When I insert the drive, I receive a "Cannot mount volume" message. Clicking on the more info option, I get told: mount: /dev/sdb1: cannot read superblock.
[08:59] <Firefishe> blast
[08:59] <nuninoo> Sebboh I did but I am not so sure
[08:59] <zedster> lol
[08:59] <Firefishe> ops, that was intended for ubuntu-offtopic..I'm blind as a bat tonight....I'm so very sorry
[08:59] <tehdave> darthanubis, Still not properly resolving the hostnames in Nautilus, but oh well...I have no issue just using IP addresses for network browsing
[08:59] <TheNano> ubottu: what are advantages of ubuntu?
[09:00] <SirErugor> matt_, try fsck'ing it
[09:00] <matt_> SirErugon How do I do that?
[09:00] <tehdave> !fsck
[09:00] <TheNano> ubottu: I thought you was intelligent
[09:00] <aksci> the font of my jaunty machine changes all of a sudden!
[09:00] <nuninoo> Sebboh I am not so sure how I made it appear. I think I was loading up the wrong kernel modules for jaunty. Check your grub if it was updated and shows jaunty
[09:00] <darthanubis> tehdave, ypu must reboot all machines
[09:01] <SirErugor> matt_, what fs is running on it+
[09:01] <pyrohotdog> TheNano: Unless you need the extra functionality out of your PS3 it's not worth it. It is cool playing SNES with a sixaxis control though..hehe.
[09:01] <matt_> SirErugon: It's a FAT32 MP3 player
[09:01] <nuninoo> weee!!! I got an ubuntu cd from the mail today! yay! thanks mr. shuttleworth! are you here? are you here?
[09:01] <tehdave> darthanubis, Ahhh...well then...will do that later. Thanks for the help
[09:01] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, ok i added a 2nd HD, but where do i find it now?
[09:01] <SirErugor> matt_, man fsck.vfat
[09:01] <glicks> hey has anyone used the amazon.com mp3 downloader with ubuntu?
[09:01] <glicks> is it spyware?
[09:01] <TheNano> pyrohotdog:  ;-)
[09:01] <glicks> will it mess up my install
[09:01] <nuninoo> FPSDavid is it mounted?
[09:01] <zedster> glicks: yes, no its actually really nice
[09:02] <Sebboh> nuninoo, oh, I'm using a third party kernel, that's probably it.  I'll look into solutions related to that, thanks. (the 3rd party might know about this already, I'll look.)
[09:02] <FPSDavid> nuninoo: unlikely, how do i do that?
[09:02] <zedster> got a buddy holly album for $2
[09:02] <Guest47433> mp3-player downloader wtf
[09:02] <nuninoo> FPSDavid simplest way I know is to run nautilus
[09:02] <glicks> zedster, really? the stuff i download from amazon is not drm protected right?
[09:03] <zedster> glicks: nope
[09:03] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, wheres nautilus? i dont think i have it w/ mythbuntu
[09:03] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, oh lord i forgot you were using mythbuntu...
[09:03] <FPSDavid> it might have it, i've just never seen it
[09:03] <glicks> zedster, so youve used it for ubuntu?
[09:03] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, open terminal and type nautilus
[09:04] <zedster> glicks: yes
[09:04] <glicks> it wont spy on my or install some backdoor into my system?
[09:04] <glicks> is it open sourcE?
[09:04] <j0nr> can anyone help with rtmpdump?
[09:04] <darthanubis> FPSDavid, mythbuntu has thunar
[09:04] <zedster> glicks: no and no
[09:04] <zedster> glicks: amazon is a good company, they make good linux friendly software, look at s3
[09:04] <murka> hi
[09:04] <murka> i am stuck
[09:05] <kaola_linux> splashcreen doesn't finishes loading on my ubuntu 9.04 instead some kernel infos shows up...How do I stop it from showing?
[09:05] <murka> i cant open openoffice word and excel at same time
[09:05] <kaola_linux> :-/
[09:05] <murka> i have no idea what problem it would be
[09:05] <zedster> kaola_linux: set boot to quite in grub
[09:06] <FPSDavid> nuninoo: nautilus not installed
[09:06] <glicks> zedster, iF I download an album, i get each indivudual song as an mp3 or one single mp3?
[09:06] <FPSDavid> darthanubis: whats that
[09:06] <nuninoo> darthanubis, can thunar mount disks like nautilus can?
[09:06] <zedster> glicks: individual, its on their site read my friend
[09:06] <kaola_linux> zedster: I'm already using it...
[09:06] <darthanubis> !info thunar | FPSDavid
[09:06] <FPSDavid> it shows up as /dev/sda, and my main is /dev/sdb
[09:06] <kz> if i extract the ubuntu iso to a folder, and burn those files to a dvd using the inbuilt vista burner. will i be able to boot into it?
[09:06] <darthanubis> nuninoo, not sure
[09:06] <darthanubis> kz, lol
[09:06] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, well if it shows up you should be able to copy into it
[09:07] <glicks> zedster, the 8.10 version will work on jaunty you think?
[09:07] <FPSDavid> where would it be located?
[09:07] <Madpilot> kz, you don't extract the ISO.  Tried fsck.vfat /dev/sbd1 and it says the file or directory doesn't exist
[09:07] <nuninoo> FPSDavid type thunar in terminal
[09:07] <murka>  i cant open openoffice word and excel at same time, get error file dosent exists
[09:08] <zedster> even the windows built in burner will burn iso's right click on it
[09:08] <Madpilot> kz, you're going to need one, though. There are some good open source burning apps for Windows.
[09:08] <kaola_linux> zedster: Nope, I'm using it now...It was not showing before, it was just last night upon resizing my swap partition
[09:08] <kz> so what i said wouldnt work?
[09:08] <zedster> kz: correct
[09:08] <darthanubis> course not
[09:08] <cdyson37> hi all
[09:08] <kz> what if i make a boot.ini file and chuck it on the cd with instructions
[09:08] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, that brings up the regular file manager, where would i look to find the drive?
[09:08] <kz> thats all that burning as a bootable disc does isnt it?
[09:09] <zedster> kz: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm
[09:09] <levidos_> if i want to run a bind9 dns server, do i have to install named, also?
[09:09] <cdyson37> strange problem: rc.local isn't being run at boot for some reason...
[09:09] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, it looks like this, but only the first 4 selections on the left, no drives http://freedomyug.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/thunar.png
[09:09] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, check out /media
[09:09] <Madpilot> kz, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[09:09] <SirErugor> matt_, it should be there since it's in the base system
[09:09] <Madpilot> kz, Windows info at that page too
[09:09] <zedster> anyone know how to get the intel 825xx chipset working before I head out?
[09:09] <kz> thanks
[09:10] <free1_> are there any good video capture programs for ubuntu? not youtube vids
[09:10] <DJones> free1_: As in recording your desktop movements?
[09:10] <zedster> free1_: cheese might work
[09:11] <free1_> as in recording a video conference that plays on my desktop
[09:11] <nuninoo> FPSDavid in terminal type $cd /media
[09:11] <Shift_Wreck> hello i appear to be experiencing issues the same or similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/19775
[09:11] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, then type # ls
[09:11] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, oops
[09:11] <slipshot> check this out!!!  http://imagebin.ca/view/Q1KkYqX.html
[09:11] <zedster> free1_: so a stream from the internet? vlc
[09:11] <pyrohotdog> I just upgraded to 9.04 and it boots to a blank screen. Ideas?
[09:11] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, type $ ls
[09:11] <Shift_Wreck> after a reboot my host name has changed
[09:11] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, only the cdrom shows in /media
[09:11] <DJones> !screencast | free1_ There might be something linked in this info
[09:12] <Shift_Wreck> to localhost.localdomain
[09:12] <Shift_Wreck> i cant sudo
[09:12] <kaola_linux> pyrohotdog: try booting it without the splash on the kernel parameter and see what shows up
[09:12] <zedster> slipshot: what is that?
[09:12] <ghostknife> nuninoo: so it's not even 8.04 with the patches applied? because 8.04 was quite unstable at first?
[09:12] <slipshot> thats my desktop
[09:12] <free1_> zedster: yes. thanks
[09:12] <SirErugor> Shift_Wreck, why can't you sudo? you have your user. edit /etc/hostname
[09:12] <free1_> thanks all.  much appreciatted
[09:12] <pyrohotdog> kaoloa_linux: how exactly do I do that...
[09:12] <Shift_Wreck> to localhost.localdomain
[09:12] <nuninoo> FPSDavid, do you know what file system the drive is?
[09:12] <zedster> slipshot: wild cherries 5! nice I heard its almost as good as back door sluts 9
[09:13] <FPSDavid> nuninoo, check PM?
[09:13] <nuninoo> ghostknife, wow that took a long time good thing i still remember what you asked
[09:13] <Shift_Wreck> i need to be root to edit that file SirErugor
[09:13] <kaola_linux> pyrohotdog: you press "e" at the grub menu on the ubuntu entry
[09:13] <gartral_> any good console based games in repos?
[09:13] <slipshot> lol
[09:13] <nuninoo> ghostknife, if you got it from CD then it is safe to assume that it is fresh
[09:13] <matt_> SirErugor, just ran it again. Seems I typed sbd instead of sdb. Lol. It just outputs saying "Contains a free cluster. Assuming EOF. FAT32 root dir starts with a bad cluster"
[09:13] <n0yd> I'm pretty experienced with sabnzbd, but im having some problems with this new install (Ubuntu 9.04/sabnzbd+ current). Package installs fine, set the default config to run under my user pid, it starts fine, but I cant access the web interface. Any ideas?
[09:13] <zedster> free1_: you know how to set up and transcode the stream? if not read the vlc wiki its really usefull
[09:14] <SirErugor> Shift_Wreck, you need to use sudo to edit it
[09:14] <Shift_Wreck> right
[09:14] <Shift_Wreck> and i cant sudo
[09:14] <glicks> zedster, heh its pretty nice
[09:14] <glicks> :)
[09:14] <Shift_Wreck> see my problem?
[09:14] <pyrohotdog> kaoloa_linux: there is no splash parameter...
[09:14] <glicks> i get paranoid now when i see non gnu software
[09:14] <slipshot> well i thought it was funny
[09:14] <glicks> or non gpl software
[09:14] <homeskill> why does the sound in ubuntu 8.10 randomly always stop working? it's still on alsa mixer but i cant usually hear anything again until i reboot. is there another way to fix this without rebooting ?
[09:15] <SirErugor> matt_, hehe.. ;) now you fsck.vfat -t -y -a then path to dev
[09:15] <zedster> glicks: what about non-BSD software, your head go bomb?
[09:15] <free1_> zedster: ok thanks.  will do
[09:15] <kaola_linux> pyrohotdog: so no splashcreen then? what does your system show after grub?
[09:15] <glicks> zedster, i am paranoid of closed source code
[09:15] <Shift_Wreck> SirErugor, do you understand the nature of my problem?
[09:15] <SirErugor> Shift_Wreck, enlighten me
[09:15] <Guest10584> is there anyone who has created AMI from scratch ?
[09:15] <matt_> SirErugor, identical output
[09:16] <n0yd> Any sabnzbd+ users?
[09:16] <SirErugor> matt_, oh and remember the -w option
[09:16] <matt_> SirErugor, same output again
[09:16] <pyrohotdog> kaoloa_linux: goes through booting like it's going to work then when it comes time for the GDM to show...nothing. Can't switch to any consoles either.
[09:17] <kaola_linux> homeskill: Try restarting alsa
[09:17] <Shift_Wreck> hostname has changed to localhost.localdomain. since the host has changed i cant sudo, therefore i cant sudo to change etc/hosts to fix it
[09:17] <Shift_Wreck> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/19775
[09:17] <SirErugor> matt_, weird.. but it should have corrected something
[09:17] <homeskill> kaola_linux how?
[09:18] <SirErugor> matt_, try the -V for verification pass too
[09:18] <kaola_linux> homeskill:sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[09:18] <maxagaz> how to download a package from backports without having to add the backport to my sources.list ?
[09:18] <kz> can ubuntu do everything windows can do + more?
[09:18] <matt_> SirErugor, did that... And guess what? Same output. Lol
[09:19] <pyrohotdog> kz: Yes.
[09:19] <SirErugor> matt_, haha.. weird, for sure :S
[09:19] <kaola_linux>  pyrohotdog: try putting single on the kernel parameter and do a startx
[09:19] <kz> what can ubuntu do that windows cant?
[09:19] <matt_> SirErugor, yeah, definitely. Is there a way to force it to mount and then format it?
[09:20] <SirErugor> matt_ you format before mounting it
[09:20] <kaola_linux>  kz: staying  away from spywares and viruses and not wasting resources from antivirus and antispyware...:)
[09:20] <SirErugor> matt_, mkfs.vfat
[09:20] <homeskill> kaola_linux it restarted alsa but i still cant hear anything :( anythin else i can try?
[09:20] <mayglow> How do I start displayconfigGTK(bullet-proof failsafe XORG) in single user mode to reconfigure my graphics? I need to manually run it - it seems to only start on a trigger when it detects things don't work.
[09:20] <kz> i dont use either anyway lol
[09:20] <kaola_linux>  homeskill:  did you check your alsamixer?
[09:20] <gartral_> any good console based games in repos?
[09:21] <kz> is there an open source equivalent for almost every app on windows, for ubuntu?
[09:21] <Wazzzaaa> kz, you configure almost anything you want. And otherwise high chance that someone has write a tool for something you need
[09:21] <mayglow> kz: no
[09:21] <homeskill> kaola_linux well i double clicked on the volume thing and the 'playback' things are slid all the way to the top
[09:21] <Wazzzaaa> all legel, without paying
[09:21] <Wazzzaaa> legel=legal
[09:21] <pyrohotdog> gartral_: overkill, nethack, bsdgames...
[09:21] <kz> nice
[09:22] <indus> HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
[09:22] <mayglow> Wazzzaaa: if you live in a country like the USA, some software covered under certain patents may be illegal for you to run(such as the packages that provide for decoding mp3 and other media codecs)
[09:22] <pyrohotdog> kz: everyone I've converted to Linux has never considered going back to Windows.
[09:22] <mayglow> Wazzzaaa: which is why canonical doesn't package them along with ubuntu, because they could face a lawsuit and even their users could be at risk.
[09:22] <kaola_linux> homeskill: go to sound preferences and check you card. Try running alsamixer on terminal
[09:22] <ertu_> need help with surround sound when playing stereo music.. my front speaker has no sound and i have to check `dublicate front` option to have more realistic surround, any ideas?
[09:23] <kz> lol
[09:23] <homeskill> i just tried runnin alsamxier on the terminal, it says master volume isnt muted
[09:23] <Wazzzaaa> mayglow: that's tru
[09:23] <indus> ertu_: probably jacks are wrongly plugged in
[09:23] <anisometropie> did they remove alsaconf on ubuntu ? they did on debian and since i've many many sound problem
[09:23] <Wazzzaaa> but I meant that you can use almost all software for free, without having to pay the author
[09:24] <pyrohotdog> kaoloa_linux: same thing.
[09:24] <ertu_> indus, no jacks haven't changed since i switched to ubuntu from windows
[09:24] <indus> ertu_: in my system,line in and mic were interchanged
[09:24] <kz> yea
[09:24] <kz> are there some programs on ubuntu you have to pay for?
[09:24] <matt_> SirErugor, that fixed the problem. Thank you. ^_^
[09:24] <mayglow> Wazzzaaa: never said you couldn't, I was just responding to your point about it all being 'legal' when that can be contentious
[09:24] <SirErugor> matt_, np :)
[09:24] <kaola_linux> pyrohotdog: did it not boot to console?
[09:24] <yaris123456789> hey guys i mounted windows drive but when i navigate to the folders there is no files....
[09:24] <pyrohotdog> kz: nothing you can't find a free alternative to.
[09:25] <asdqwe> someone can gift me 1 https://usshop.ubuntu.com/product.php?code=09%2093107BN&catid=1 L
[09:25] <kz> sweet
[09:25] <ubuntu> ciao
[09:25] <indus> ciao
[09:25] <ubuntu> ki sei
[09:25] <kaola_linux> pyrohotdog: maybe it's a resolution problem?  Pressed "e" for the options, "o" to add a new line, and wrote single. It's a laptop.
[09:26] <mayglow> How do I start displayconfigGTK(bullet-proof failsafe XORG) in single user mode to reconfigure my graphics? I need to manually run it - it seems to only start on a trigger when it detects things don't work.
[09:26] <gartral_> !info nethack
[09:27] <slipshot> guess not!!!
[09:27] <yaris123456789> hey guys i mounted windows drive but when i navigate to the folders there is no files....
[09:28] <mayglow> yaris123456789: they're all gone due to corruption possibly
[09:28] <SirErugor> yaris123456789, and you mounted it correctly?
[09:28] <SirErugor> hehe
[09:28] <levidos_> where can i find my dns settigns?
[09:28] <mayglow> levidos_: /etc/resolv.conf
[09:28] <kaola_linux> yaris123456789: Maybe you have some permission problem
[09:29] <mayglow> levidos_: actually you have a tray icon for NetworkManager you should click on
[09:29] <mayglow> levidos_: it should be there
[09:29] <zetheroo> how do you edit the dictionary  of Firefox in Ubuntu?
[09:30] <gordonjcp> how can I get the update manager to work the way it did in 8.04?
[09:31] <mayglow> gordonjcp: how did update manager work in 8.04, how is it working differently?
[09:31] <levidos_> tnx mayglow, i'm troubleshooting some dns server issues :-s
[09:31] <gordonjcp> mayglow: in 8.04 there was an icon in the tooltray when it wanted attention, now it just pops up its dialogue when it feels like it
[09:32] <mayglow> gordonjcp: well I'm running 8.04 myself and haven't seen what the new update-manager does, so I can't really help. I also have no GUI, so I can't take a look to see what gnome configuration menu you should go to.
[09:32] <mayglow> btw, does anyone know how to start displayconfigGTK manually?
[09:33] <gordonjcp> mayglow: I've already been through the various menus
[09:33] <Madpilot> gordonjcp, let me find the bug report, there's a gconf command to reset update-manager to sane functioning
[09:33] <gordonjcp> mayglow: google also seems to suggest that it's a great new improvement
[09:33] <mayglow> gordonjcp: well looks like they've made it default behavior and hidden the changes from you
[09:33] <mayglow> gordonjcp: heh, sorry
[09:33] <gordonjcp> mayglow: quite a few forum posts reporting this screwy behaviour, and being told "yes, isn't it great, why would you want to change it"
[09:34] <ertu_> need help with 6ch sound when playing 2ch stereo music.. my front speaker has no sound and i have to check `dublicate front` option to have more realistic surround, any ideas?
[09:34] <mayglow> gordonjcp: oh and don't forget disabling ctrl+alt+backspace. you should see how nautilus acts straight out of gnome upstream before ubuntu modifies it
[09:34] <Madpilot> gordonjcp, mayglow - https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/332945
[09:34] <mayglow> i'll load that later... when I have more than a text browser X(
[09:35] <Madpilot> mayglow, given that default upstream nautilus uses the awful, awful 'barf windows everywhere' mode, I'm very glad Ubuntu makes that change!
[09:35] <Madpilot> the 9.04 change to update-notifier is far less desireable
[09:35] <mayglow> Madpilot: yeah well I'm going to jump ship completely to a simple BSD, I've run into some very funky things and I'm tired of it
[09:36] <gordonjcp> mayglow: I'm planning on upgrading to 8.04 later today
[09:36] <Madpilot> that's a big jump
[09:36] <gordonjcp> 8.10 is fundamentally broken, and 9.04 isn't much better
[09:37] <FPSDavid> im trying to mount a HD and it says "mount: you must specify the filesystem type". what/how do i do that?
[09:37] <mayglow> Madpilot: eh well I've jumped around before. I also don't require a lot of software that is critical to a lot of linux desktops these days(blobs, flash, java, whatever)
[09:37] <mayglow> Oh man it is late :\
[09:37] <ComunisTico> hi
[09:37] <FPSDavid> the command i'm running is "mount /dev/sda /media/backup"
[09:37] <gordonjcp> FPSDavid: -t
[09:38] <FPSDavid> how do i incorporate that -t, gordonjcp?
[09:38] <mayglow> FPSDavid: there is an ubuntu wiki entry for mounting stuff, are you trying to mount something from windows?
[09:38] <FPSDavid> no
[09:38] <ComunisTico> i try to chmod 777 my usb drive (its fat32) but it doesent really work, tis is what it says to me
[09:38] <ComunisTico> chmod: changing permissions of `/media/JIMENA': Read-only file system
[09:38] <FPSDavid> a 2nd linux formatted drive in ubuntu
[09:40] <FPSDavid> this part says nothing of -t https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingANewHardDrive#Manually%20Mount
[09:40] <Madpilot> ComunisTico, pretty sure fat32 can't support the full permissions system
[09:40] <gartral_> !info overkill
[09:41] <Kartagis> on any page, flash content is replaced with a huge play button. i have read that flashblock did this but i don't have that package. what else could cause this?
[09:41] <mayglow> !info displayconfiggtk
[09:41] <ComunisTico> Madpilot, its on my usb drive tht ive use for years.. and until now that i upgraded to 9.04 it stopped working
[09:42] <FPSDavid> what do i do w/ -t
[09:42] <mayglow> !info displayconfig-gtk
[09:42] <mayglow> -_-
[09:42] <DJones> Kartagis: Could it be the firefox addon noscript?
[09:42] <Kartagis> DJones, I checked that too
[09:42] <FPSDavid> i'm trying to mount the 1st drive from here: http://pastebin.com/d4bacdc57
[09:43] <FPSDavid> /dev/sda to /media/backup by running "mount /dev/sda /media/backup"
[09:43] <DJones> Kartagis: That was the only one I could think of
[09:46] <enquest> I got a usb harddrive I want to use it as backp medium
[09:46] <enquest> In what file type should I format it?
[09:47] <SirErugor> enquest, you could format it with mkfs.ext3
[09:47] <SirErugor> enquest, if you want to use ext3 fs
[09:47] <enquest> ext3 ok but does this not give problems with rights?
[09:47] <SirErugor> enquest, what do you mean? rights? not that I can think of
[09:48] <enquest> the user enquest:enquest
[09:48] <enquest> I making a rsync file as there is no good backup programe in ubuntu
[09:48] <SirErugor> enquest, oh.. then no rights problems..
[09:48] <ghoulhaha> hello,everybody
[09:49] <FPSDavid> hi
[09:49] <SirErugor> enquest, but you could also use raiserfs or the like, but I like ext3 better than reiser
[09:49] <ghoulhaha> 可以说中文？
[09:49] <KingKimi> Hi. in the matrix screensaver, how do i change the  flowing text to flowing numbers ???
[09:49] <enquest> already formated the disk as exts3
[09:49] <pyrohotdog> Are there any advantages to having your home folder on another partition? Other than easy system upgrades/swaps?
[09:49] <enquest> now writing the rsync
[09:50] <enquest> realy shame there is no good backup programe on ubuntu
[09:51] <ghoulhaha> any body can help me ?
[09:52] <enquest> is ext2 not better?
[09:52] <enquest> for a usb disk
[09:52] <Bacta> How can I stream movies to my Xbox 360?
[09:52] <ghoulhaha> the ati dirver doesn't work with my computer
[09:53] <SirErugor> enquest, ext2 is ext3 wihtout journalling
[09:53] <KingKimi> what is the name of a command line only irc client ?
[09:53] <SirErugor> wihtout*
[09:53] <DJones> KingKimi: Irssi
[09:53] <SirErugor> without* damn it .)
[09:53] <KingKimi> DJones: thnx
[09:53] <saivin> KingKimi: I'm using it now :)
[09:53] <Madpilot> enquest, fat32 has the advantage of working in Windows. Important if you want to use your usb key on other machines...
[09:53] <KingKimi> what is "journalling" filesystem ?
[09:53] <KingKimi> saivin: B-)
[09:54] <gordonjcp> KingKimi: it's where the filesystem handler makes a note of what it's going to change, changes it, and makes a note that it's changed
[09:54] <gordonjcp> KingKimi: that way, if it's interrupted at any point, when you restore the filesystem you can work out what was going on
[09:55] <KingKimi> gordonjcp: thnx for the info...and now i opened wikipedia.. !
[09:55] <gordonjcp> KingKimi: if it fails before it writes down what's going to happen, it goes "aha, I never finished writing down what I was going to do" and scraps the whole idea
[09:55] <nettezzaumana> hi
[09:55] <gordonjcp> if it fails after it writes down what it's going to do, and is while it's doing it, it can finish the job by looking at the first part
[09:55] <KingKimi> why XFIX try to fix xserver option is not present in recover mode of ubuntu 904 ?
[09:56] <saivin> gordonjcp: kind of log for later reference?
[09:56] <KingKimi> gordonjcp: B-) thnx !
[09:56] <gordonjcp> saivin: kind of, yeah
[09:56] <nettezzaumana> can i somehow list packages which provides "foo" file .. for example ext2fs.h ??
[09:56] <nettezzaumana> using apt-cache?
[09:56] <nettezzaumana> btw. i haven't ubuntu so i can't try
[09:57] <gordonjcp> the last bit is, if it sees it was going to do something, sees the state of the disk matches what it was going to do, but there's no journal entry to say it was completed, it just marks it as completed
[09:57] <gordonjcp> clever stuff
[09:57] <gordonjcp> that's a bit of an oversimplification
[09:57] <gordonjcp> KingKimi: incidentally, re irssi - you're going to want screen as well
[09:57] <civpro> well guys, i finally got a working server
[09:58] <civpro> but it ended up being opensuse
[09:58] <Boohbah> civpro: i'm sorry
[09:58] <KingKimi> :|
[09:59] <civpro> booh, why you say that?
[09:59] <nettezzaumana> can i somehow list packages which provides "foo" file .. for example ext2fs.h ??
[09:59] <nettezzaumana> using apt-cache?
[09:59] <civpro> its not a bad distro
[09:59] <tritium> civpro: please stay on topic.
[10:00] <gordonjcp> civpro: what problems did you run into using Ubuntu for a server?
[10:00] <civpro> tritium, just came in here to say i appreciate this channels help even though it didnt work out for me installing ubuntu
[10:00] <civpro> gordon, it was display issues
[10:01] <civpro> nvidia 8300
[10:05] <Xello> Hello. Anyone know how to fix a Stale NFS file handle on a USB-stick running Ubuntu from it?
[10:06] <Emry> Does anyone know how to recover the MBR in Vista?  Ubuntu runs great but the install didn't ask me where to install grub, and didn't make the assumption that it should install it on the same disk and Ubuntu......
[10:07] <ziroday> Emry: you need to reinstall grub from a desktop livecd
[10:07] <levidos> pleeease help me with dns. the problem is, that i can;t ping ubunturv.testdns.local. details here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/170426/
[10:08] <Emry> ziroday: That doesn't answer my question.  Grub works as intended. :P It is just in the wrong place.  I want to fix the MBR on /dev/sda so that it no longer has grub, only Vista. :P
[10:08] <Emry> :) Once I figure that out, I know how to get grub to go where it belongs. :)
[10:09] <ziroday> Emry: if you're asking how to reinstall vista's bootloader you're asking in the wrong place, ##windows will be more helpful. But I don't understand why you need it in the first place
[10:10] <Guest874> my ubuntu irc client won't open urls in a browser i have to cut and paste
[10:10] <ziroday> guestwhat client?
[10:10] <Guest874> how can I change this
[10:10] <ziroday> Guest874: what client?
[10:10] <Emry> ziroday, I need it because A) I want to be able to have the two OSes completely separeate from each other B) I want to be the one that decides wehre the boot loader installs C) I don't want a scenerio where one OS crapping out can keep me out of the othe. And I asked here because it was the Ubuntu disk that did it. :P
[10:10] <Guest874> xchat
[10:10] <ziroday> Guest874: right click on the link, more help in #xchat
[10:11] <Guest874> ziroday: if i choose "open in browser" I get an error
[10:11] <Bacta> Is the update to Jacking Jackelope worth it?
[10:11] <Guest874> I'll try xchat
[10:11] <ziroday> Emry: sure, but we don't know how to replace the vista bootloader, you will need to do that in ##windows. Grub does not install to a certain OS, but to the MBR
[10:11] <ziroday> Bacta: depends
[10:12] <ziroday> Emry: so in that regard it is "seperate"
[10:12] <KingKimi> Bacta: if you need a MAtrix screensaver ;)  i enjoy it :D
[10:13] <Sebboh> Emry, the first time I installed linux, I felt like what you've described, too.  I got better.
[10:13] <Emry> ziroday: I am going to check ##windows, but you are missing the point.  Grub installs to the MBR of A hard disk.  I installed Ubuntu entirely one one physical disk.  When it got to the point where most Linux installs ask where I wanted the boot loader installed, it didn't even ask. :`
[10:13] <ziroday> Emry: it does under the Advanced Options :)
[10:13] <Emry> Sebboh: I have been using Linux for years.  :)
[10:13] <kwak> anyone can help with networking. I installed an ubuntu 9.04 server in dmz. my problem is it can't connect to the internet.
[10:14] <Sebboh> Ah, Emry is right.  The Jaunty installer is complete bunk, to forsakes everyone except grandma.
[10:14] <kwak> i changed the values in /etc/network/interfaces to this
[10:14] <usicow> What license is Ubuntu released under?   That is probably the problem.
[10:14] <ziroday> Bacta: no it is not.
[10:14] <Bacta> Yes it is
[10:14] <LietKynes> ziroday: just to be on the safe side write down the boot command for the vista entry in grub
[10:14] <kwak> address <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:14] <Bacta> you're not allowed to look at the code
[10:14] <ziroday> LietKynes: you might want to talk to Emry
[10:14] <Emry> I will probably run through the install again later and make notes... That way I can send my comments to the devs. ;P
[10:15] <ziroday> Bacta: that is incorrect, you can look at most of the code
[10:15] <LietKynes> right, sorry
[10:15] <usicow> ziroday: Hmm.. I have to document that for work.. so we know its okay to use.. can you point me to a website which lists whats what?
[10:15] <Canaen1> bacta: you aren't doing it correctly.
[10:15] <ziroday> Emry: you might want to use the alternate cd that is more advanced
[10:15] <Bacta> Sorry
[10:15] <Bacta> I was meant to be trolling
[10:15] <Emry> That is a good idea.
[10:15] <kwak> i mean address   is <IP_ADDRESS> and gateway <IP_ADDRESS> (includes netmask and brodcast) but cannot connect.
[10:15] <gordonjcp> ziroday: I'm trying to think of what code you *can't* look at, blob drivers excluded
[10:15] <Bacta> but I just don't have the passion anymore
[10:15] <Bacta> I'm really, truly sorry
[10:15] <kwak> but if i change to iface eth0 inet dhcp, it works fine.
[10:16] <ziroday> usicow: oh well in that case its really really complicated :). #ubuntu-offtopic might be a better place to ask
[10:16] <LietKynes> Emry: even if your ubuntu install dies, grub can still boot other OS
[10:16] <Emry> But yeah, later I will go through the install process again, and see if there is anything that wasn't just and ID0T error... . :P If I botched something myself, then so be it.  :)
[10:16] <gordonjcp> Bacta: you could try going to #openbsd and telling them the only reason OpenBSD can claim to have no remote holes is because Theo keeps moving the goalposts
[10:16] <Emry> Then if I have time, I will send comments to the devs about my install experience. hehe
[10:16] <gartral_> ok, im on an ssh connection to my server, how do i generate a keyfile that is useable from putty/winscp?
[10:17] <ziroday> gordonjcp: err some of the artwork?
[10:17] <gordonjcp> ziroday: mm, that's actually a good point
[10:17]  * Emry has been looking at his comments so far, and oppologizes if he was sounding irate. ^^;;
[10:17] <ziroday> gordonjcp: I'm sure there's a whole bunch, gnewsense will be a fun way to see
[10:17] <gordonjcp> ziroday: one raised by lugradio a couple of years ago - how many bits of "free" artwork or music truly have the sources available?
[10:17] <jerzy> hi can any1 tell me where i can get skype for ubuntu 9.0.4??
[10:17]  * Bacta gets asked to leave places all the time, he rarely stays "left"
[10:17] <Madpilot> gordonjcp, anything made & released in SVG does
[10:18] <ziroday> gordonjcp: #ubuntu-offtopic and I have no idea, that subject doesn't really interest me :)
[10:18] <gordonjcp> jerzy: you can get it from the skype website
[10:18] <Emry> gordonjcp: for the most part, if a piece is on the computer, the binary is the source.  :P hehehe  Unless you can download the sheet music.
[10:18] <gordonjcp> Madpilot: mmm, *kind of*
[10:18] <ziroday> !skype | jerzy
[10:18] <Odo> jerzy, you need repositoy medibuntu
[10:18] <jerzy> i searched there and there is only for ubuntu up to 8.04
[10:18] <Madpilot> gordonjcp, anyway, #ubuntu-offtopic for stuff like that, please
[10:18] <gordonjcp> Emry: as ziroday says, it's a job for #u-offtopic - you can talk to me about it there
[10:18] <jerzy> oh thx a lot Odo ill try
[10:19] <jerzy> afk for a while
[10:19] <dn4> how do you get cspan.org to play videos?
[10:19] <gartral_> ok, im on an ssh connection to my server, how do i generate a keyfile that is useable from putty/winscp?
[10:19] <gordonjcp> dn4: you may need flashplugin-nonfree
[10:19] <gordonjcp> gartral_: same way you generate any other ssh key
[10:20] <dn4> movie player seems to of got it
[10:20] <dn4> but I installed an ugly thing
[10:20] <gartral_> gordonjcp: normal way from console is broken in ubuntu
[10:20] <mgph> hi, how can I play wma, wmv and wpl files in ubuntu ? the windows media file formats ?
[10:21] <gordonjcp> gartral_: define "broken", and what exactly have you tried?
[10:21] <joaopinto> !codecs | mgolisch
[10:21] <djabbour> Ubuntu seems to be adding -Werror to my compile flags, causing some packages to fail on warnings. Where is this flag set so I can disable it?
[10:21] <syntax\> anyone here be able to play warcraft frozen throne on linux?
[10:21] <syntax\> on ubuntu should i say?
[10:21] <RocknRoll> is there any irc channel to talk about Unix ???
[10:22] <mgph> ubottu: ok thanks
[10:23] <Xello> Anyone know how to fix a Stale NFS file handle on a USB-stick running Ubuntu from it?
[10:23] <ocs>  hi, which is the best firewall with a GUI frontend in your opinion ?
[10:24] <CooPs> hey, I can't get my .lircrc file to work (lirc remote mapping file)
[10:24] <CooPs> it has no effect what so ever
[10:24] <gordonjcp> ocs: are you using more than one machine?
[10:24] <ocs> gordonjcp: nopwe
[10:24] <ocs> nope
[10:24] <CooPs> when I do the irw command, lirc pick's up key input from the remote just find
[10:24] <ReleaseX> CooPs, does irw give you any reading?
[10:24] <djabbour> Is there any file on ubuntu where default cflags can be set? For automake or gcc in general?
[10:24] <CooPs> fine*
[10:25] <gordonjcp> ocs: you don't really need a firewall then
[10:25] <CooPs> ReleaseX: http://pastebin.com/d44a6f635
[10:26] <gordonjcp> djabbour: you could export CFLAGS in your bash startup scripts
[10:26] <CooPs> i got the script's installed from a guide
[10:26] <djabbour> gordonjcp, I am unsetting it already, no effect
[10:26] <CooPs> but I also had like a hello world test, which didn't work either
[10:26] <joaopinto> !wine  ! syntax\
[10:26] <djabbour> gordonjcp, there must be somewhere where -Werror is being adding
[10:26] <joaopinto> !wine | syntax\
[10:27] <Guest15703> Hi guys  how we all
[10:27] <driftwood_> ok
[10:27] <gordonjcp> djabbour: have you re-run configure?
[10:27] <ReleaseX> CooPs, have you tried the mythbuntu-lirc-generator
[10:27] <djabbour> gordonjcp, yes it's nothing stupid like that. Like I said, Ubuntu must be setting this flag
[10:27] <CooPs> ReleaseX: yeah, and that just generate another lirc file for me that doesn't respond to anything either
[10:27] <djabbour> gordonjcp, by build scripts work on centos, since I just ran them there
[10:27] <Guest15703> Guys any one know why i cant get my speakers working  and mirphone , just up graded  to version 9.04 ubuntu
[10:28] <gordonjcp> djabbour: it's not
[10:28] <CooPs> * .lircrc
[10:28] <djabbour> gordonjcp, and I see the -Werror being added on Ubuntu
[10:28] <gordonjcp> djabbour: must be something you've set locally then
[10:28] <ocs> gordonjcp: I have a webserver on another machine, wich is in LAN with my host. Now, I have to redirect all the calls to the webserver's pages to my machine. If, for example, a page on the webserver is http://URL1:80  I have to make it accessible through http://URL2:someport,  where URL2 is the url of my machine. Someone told me that this is feasible with a firewall....
[10:28] <ReleaseX> CooPs, does the remote not work with any application?
[10:28] <abama> pppd call xxx, no ppp0 interface appears
[10:28] <gordonjcp> ocs: oh, you're trying to share your connection?
[10:28] <djabbour> gordonjcp, it's a stock install... I'm just testing this build process on a VM for ubuntu I setup
[10:28] <gartral_> gordonjcp: one moment, trying to figure out the command
[10:28] <CooPs> ReleaseX: the remote works fine with XBMC, I just want to be able to start it with it
[10:28] <ocs> gordonjcp: more or less
[10:28] <djabbour> gordonjcp, maybe the newer gcc versions in ubuntu add it by default
[10:29] <gordonjcp> djabbour: can you pm me a link to the code you're trying to compile
[10:29] <djabbour> gordonjcp, i'm compiling binutils
[10:29] <gordonjcp> ocs: yeah you could do that, although you may find that if you're using a broadband router it's already got something to do that
[10:29] <djabbour> gordonjcp, cross compiling actually...
[10:29] <ocs> gordonjcp: I don't want external devices
[10:29] <gordonjcp> djabbour: pm me the steps to reproduce the problem
[10:30] <CooPs> ReleaseX: I'm using "sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart" to restart lirc whenever I change the ~/.lircrc file
[10:30] <kwak> hi again: my first issue was resolve. my next question is why is it that I don't see all the files/folders when i login yung winscp?
[10:30] <djabbour> gordonjcp, it's way too involved. But I'll show you the error.
[10:30] <I_Hate_Freedom> howdy!
[10:30] <kwak> i logged in as root.
[10:30] <djabbour> cc1: warnings being treated as errors
[10:30] <kwak> but i don't see the /var
[10:30] <livingdaylight> hola
[10:30] <gordonjcp> djabbour: okay, without being able to reproduce the circumstances, I can't really help you further
[10:30] <livingdaylight> how do i connect to my router? 192.???.1.1 ?
[10:31] <I_Hate_Freedom> 168?
[10:31] <I_Hate_Freedom> as in <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:31] <RocknRoll> in firefox address bar type <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:31] <_Ranakah> livingdaylight in terminal type: ifconfig and there is ip of your router
[10:31] <livingdaylight> I_Hate_Freedom, you da man
[10:31] <djabbour> gordonjcp, I say f** it, i'll just not support ubuntu, it's the only distro adding -Werror to the build process by itself
[10:31] <_Ranakah> maybe is not 192.168... i have <IP_ADDRESS>
[10:31] <_Ranakah> :D
[10:31] <livingdaylight> I_Hate_Freedom, please, please, change your name :s
[10:32] <I_Hate_Freedom> not really. just a guess
[10:32] <livingdaylight> _Ranakah, ifconfig, sanx
[10:32] <balrog__> do i still need wpa_supplicant for connecting to a hotspot via command line?
[10:32] <matt7676> has anyone accomplished to have one VAP in station mode and second VAP in monitor mode using Atheros chipset based card and MadWIFI drivers under Linux?
[10:32] <djabbour> gordonjcp, FYI, you're wrong about Ubuntu not setting that flag. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilerFlags
[10:32] <gordonjcp> djabbour: I can't think of any combination of circumstances where you would have -Werror being added all by itself
[10:33] <djabbour> gordonjcp, indeed it is turned on in Ubuntu by default, see the wiki I linked.
[10:33] <CooPs> any command that allows me to see if lirc really loaded the ~/.lircrc file maybe?
[10:33] <gordonjcp> djabbour: that doesn't say anything about -Werror being turned on
[10:33] <ertu_> Sauerbraten hangs my pc as soon as i start it.. using ubuntu 9.04, ati x1950xt. any ideas?
[10:34] <I_Hate_Freedom> Does anyone have any advice for setting up the microphone on a Lenovo T61p?
[10:34] <gordonjcp> djabbour: also, you should be fixing warnings *anyway*
[10:34] <I_Hate_Freedom> This thing is driving me nuts!!!
[10:34] <djabbour> gordonjcp, do you know what binutils is?
[10:34] <djabbour> gordonjcp, i'm not maintaining their packages. it's a core part of the gnu toolchain
[10:34] <aLeSD> hi all
[10:34] <mgph> Hi, I've downloaded and installed "ubuntu-restricted-formats" but how can I start using it ?
[10:34] <gordonjcp> djabbour: yes, I'm a contributor to binutils
[10:34] <Canaen1> is there a way to boot from an external hard drive?
[10:34] <aLeSD> how could I show the trash icon on the desktop ?
[10:35] <I_Hate_Freedom> aLeSD: howdy!
[10:35] <aLeSD> Canaen1: check if your bios supports it
[10:35] <aLeSD> I_Hate_Freedom: what ?
[10:35] <CooPs> ReleaseX: could there  by any chance be so that lirc never bothered loading the .lircrc file?
[10:35] <Canaen1> aLeSD: how?
[10:35] <kwak> hi again: my first issue was resolve. my next question is why is it that I don't see all the files/folders when i login yung winscp?
[10:35] <aLeSD> Canaen1: enter in the bios and check the boot sequence
[10:35] <djabbour> gordonjcp, in that case you'll want to look at line 3090 of ecoff.c, ha.
[10:36] <djabbour> gordonjcp, sorry, i'm just frustrated with ubuntu
[10:36] <gordonjcp> djabbour: two secs
[10:36] <aLeSD> Canaen1: keep attention !
[10:36] <gordonjcp> djabbour: actually, can it wait until later?  It's a nice day out there and I have a garden to weed
[10:36] <djabbour> gordonjcp, but regardless, it's being added. I'm going to stop arguing over it.
[10:36] <gordonjcp> djabbour: anyway, the wiki page you linked adds certain warnings but goes on to say that it will stop compilation *if* -Werror is being added
[10:36] <gordonjcp> djabbour: oh - did you get it from apt-get source binutils?
[10:37] <djabbour> gordonjcp, yeah I was skimming the wiki too quickly
[10:37] <djabbour> gordonjcp, nope I've got the tgz
[10:37] <gordonjcp> djabbour: nw, it happens
[10:37] <djabbour> gordonjcp, like I said I'm trying to build a cross tool
[10:37] <gordonjcp> djabbour: grep through the tree for "-Werror" and see if it *is* in any config file
[10:38] <gordonjcp> djabbour: what does "echo $CFLAGS" say?
[10:38] <djabbour> gordonjcp, i've got a set of scripts to do it, they worked on Mac OS X, and two other flavours of linux without issue. I'm pretty surprised it's failing on ubuntu
[10:38] <ReleaseX> CooPs, jere
[10:38] <djabbour> gordonjcp, since yor'e being so helpful, heh, let me paste you the part of my script that's compiling it
[10:38] <gordonjcp> djabbour: tell you what, make up a list of steps to reproduce the problem, pm me a link to it, and I'll look at it tonight
[10:38] <djabbour> gordonjcp, it shouldn't matter since i unset CFLAGS
[10:38] <balrog__> do i still need wpa_supplicant for connecting to a hotspot (using wpa encryption) via command line?
[10:38] <ReleaseX> CooPs, here's a post for starting xbmc from the remote http://vikjonlinuxhowto.blogspot.com/2009/04/howto-setup-remote-for-ubuntu-804-xbmc.html
[10:38] <djabbour> gordonjcp, can you /msg me your e-mail?
[10:38] <gordonjcp> you *do* need to re-run ./configure after tampering with CFLAGS ;-)
[10:39] <CooPs> ReleaseX: yeah, that's the one I'm following
[10:39] <CooPs> :P
[10:39] <ReleaseX> CooPs, what part are you getting hung up on
[10:39] <yahoo> .....
[10:39] <CooPs> the problem with it is that it simply assumes that the  ~/.lircrc file actually have any affect
[10:40] <CooPs> becouse mine don't
[10:40] <yahoo> hihihihihihi

[10:49] <I_Hate_Freedom> AlleyKat: Hmm... I can't get it to work on my network.
[10:49] <ToreadorVampire> Quick question all - is inotify compiled into the Jaunty kernel by default, and if not is there a package to install (in order to get it compiled in) or do I have to do something by hand?
[10:50] <ToreadorVampire> I had assumed that (if it were working) lsmod | grep ino would have turned up inotify - but it didn't :(
[10:50] <ToreadorVampire> And I tried using incron and nothing happened :(

[11:04] <davide> what cai i do ?
[11:04] <davide> *can
[11:05] <Skript101> Is ordering the live cd avaialble in Australia?
[11:05] <realsifo> help me
[11:05] <Canaen1> so I'm doing a fresh install because the automated system update to 9.04 broke some packages and I want to format my hard drive to upgrade to ext4. Besides backing up my files, what should I save?
[11:06] <Skript101> HELLO?
[11:06] <Madpilot> Skript101, almost certainly - check the ShipIt site
[11:06] <ertu_> is there fglrx for jaunty?
[11:06] <Skript101> Well then, is it for free?
[11:07] <Madpilot> Skript101, yes
[11:07] <Skript101> Or do i pay a certain price for it to be shipped?
[11:07] <skillz> does anyone here have any experiance with Yslow! or unix shell scripting?
[11:07] <Hobbsee> Skript101: yes, it is free and available.
[11:08] <Skript101> So is getting the cd mailed to me free?
[11:08] <DJones> Skript101: It can take a few weeks to be delivered from shipit, alternatively, you could download it via the internet and burn it to a cd
[11:09] <DJones> !shipit | Skript101 Yes, its completely free for a single cd
[11:09] <wgrant> Skript101: Or order a CD for the cost of postage at ubuntu.net.au. They are much quicker, 'cause they're mailed from Australia rather than Europe.
[11:10] <ertu_> is there fglrx for jaunty?
[11:10] <KingKimi> giles_: i didnot install it that time.. now when i try to install tar.gz it says cannot directory over directory
[11:10] <wgrant> ertu_: Yes, but AMD dropped support for chips before the R500.
[11:11] <Skript101> !shipit ?
[11:11] <ertu_> wgrant, mine is R580. how do i install it?
[11:12] <KingKimi> giles_: it says cannot move directory over directly :(
[11:12] <Skript101> How much quicker
[11:12] <wgrant> ertu_: Actually, it looks like the R500 series isn't supported either. Only R600 and up.
[11:12] <wgrant> Skript101: A few days, rather than several weeks.
[11:12] <Skript101> How much quicker is buying from ubuntu.net.au
[11:12] <Skript101> Than shipit
[11:12] <john_sturton> hi I am new to Linux and am after a graphics package to do office network diagrams can anyone recommend any ?
[11:12] <younder> Do you need Samba to read a Windows disk?
[11:13] <wgrant> Skript101: It will take a few days. ShipIt will take up to several weeks.

[11:13] <wgrant> younder: No.

[11:18] <nurettin_> i am using ubuntu 8.04
[11:18] <skillz> Is anyone here any good with shell scripting with things such as tracert that can help/advise me on something
[11:18] <nurettin_> but not running k3b
[11:18] <CooPs> i get
[11:18] <joaopinto> !ask | skillz
[11:18] <CooPs> bash: foo.sh: command not found
[11:19] <murka> hi
[11:19] <joaopinto> CooPs, is the scripts folders on your home directory ? ~ = home directory
[11:19] <she_dyed> CooPs, type the complete path as well as script name
[11:19] <murka> i got problem by opening in menu Language support
[11:19] <DJones> Skript101: If you want to check how much postage would be from the australian ubuntu local support people, you might be better joining their channel #ubuntu-au they're most likely to be able to give you an idea
[11:19] <murka> when i open it then it closes after loading
[11:19] <younder> skillz: try nettworktools first, if you haven't
[11:19] <skillz> i need to test loading times of my website on different servers, i was hoping that this could be automated in some sort of shell script is this possible?
[11:20] <skillz> younder: whats networktools?
[11:20] <CooPs> permission denied
[11:20] <Skript101> I think 400 mb would download.... And eat my bandwidth, and im capped to 10-15 kbps
[11:20] <joaopinto> skillz, if you mean response times, yes, you just need to measure the elasped time with shell scripting and some HTTP get tool, like wget
[11:20] <Skript101> It would take ages
[11:20] <CooPs> ah there we go
[11:20] <younder> skillz: under System, Administration menu
[11:20] <CooPs> nvm
[11:21] <crid_> hi guys anyone running fujitsu amilo sa 3650

[11:23] <jerrome> does anyone know the right chat for pxelinux ??
[11:24] <younder> Skript101: Then it should suggest wich "sudo apt-get installl .. " you should use
[11:24] <tobiassjosten> How can I use notify-send and not queue my multiple messages, but rather have them all shown at once?
[11:25] <she_dyed> Skript101, where in AU are you?
[11:26] <askvictor1> I've installed ubuntu server 8.04; I want to add ubuntu-desktop from a 8.04 cdrom - what should I do to apt/sources.list to enable the CD?

[11:27] <pjolk> ok i have tried to get wireless going on ubuntu for 6months(well obv not 8 hours a day but i have given it a few tries from time to time). im about to put it off for forever
[11:27] <LordMetroid> How do one uninstall the psuedo-mouse, it gets activated sometimes when i play games and then nothing works
[11:27] <younder> john_sturton: yes update to the latest version
[11:28] <skillz> younder: wget is exactly what i need - is there a way of making this into a script so that it outputs it to a text file, and automated so it runs at certain times?
[11:29] <pkkm> how to resize ntfs partition?
[11:29] <ikonia> pkkm: gparted
[11:29] <pkkm> ikonia: it does not work
[11:30] <pkkm> neither ntfsresize work
[11:30] <RainbowW> so i have a stack of usb hard drives i want to mount after boot, but listing them in /etc/fstab like a normal drive doesn't work because that's read before the usb subsystem comes available. what's the solution? some script inserted into /etc/init.d at the end of the boot order?
[11:31] <pkkm> is seems like ntfsresize finished without errors, but when I scan disk with gparted, it is the same size as it was before
[11:31] <younder> skillz: Put it in a batch file and make it into a cron job.
[11:31] <Skript101> Sorry it me again
[11:31] <Skript101> Another question
[11:32] <joaopinto> pkkm, ntfsresize works on filesystems not partitions
[11:32] <Skript101> Which ubuntu do i get
[11:32] <Skript101> 32 bit or 64 bit?
[11:32] <RainbowW> if you don't know, you want 32-bit.
[11:32] <she_dyed> Skript101, i am chatting with this guy that got his CD free from launchpad
[11:32] <podecoet> surround no longer works after upgrading to jaunty, the channels appear in the mixer, but changing them has no effect - any ideas?
[11:32] <podecoet> (I still get sound through the front channel)
[11:32] <skillz> younder: how would i make a batch file?
[11:33] <Skript101> Whats launchpad
[11:33] <she_dyed> on the website
[11:33] <younder> skillz: it is a text file with bash command same as you would enter from the terminal. see man bash.
[11:33] <usman> join #mm

[11:33] <she_dyed>  Education expo in June at Rosehill Sydney <-- are you close Skript101
[11:33] <skillz> younder: ok thanks
[11:33] <bostwick> so yeah
[11:33] <joaopinto> pkkm, you will need to recreate the partition with the size matching your new ntfs filesystem, but backup to be safe
[11:34] <yinlong> what's bash?
[11:34] <Skript101> And, why 32 bit
[11:34] <erUSUL> !shell | yinlong
[11:34] <younder> skillz: and man cron
[11:34] <bostwick> I installed ndiswrapper and now it says cant detect if hardware is present

[11:34] <pkkm> I have 150gb ntfs partition and 200gb ext3 partition. how to resize ntfs partition to 100gb and add this free 50gb to ext3?
[11:34] <cha2> ce-kity
[11:34] <Skript101> No
[11:35] <joaopinto> pkkm, per your statement you already resized the ntfs filesystem, now you need to resize the partion
[11:35] <Skript101> Im in VIC
[11:35] <she_dyed> Skript101, ah ok
[11:35] <joaopinto> pkkm, pleas read: man ntfsresize
[11:35] <joaopinto> pkkm, it would be easier to do it using gparted, but since you have selected the manual way...
[11:35] <pkkm> joapinto: I can't format anything - I need both partitions and I haven't got space for backup
[11:35] <Skript101> :(
[11:36] <RainbowW> pkkm: then your life truly sucks.
[11:36] <bostwick> ndiswrapper hates me
[11:36] <pkkm> gparted returns error - I'll launch resizing and paste that error here
[11:36] <yinlong> erUSUL,i met this word in the terminal ,when i typed a wrong command .But i really dont know what it means.
[11:36] <crid_> i do you guys run linux/ubuntu on a laptop
[11:36] <she_dyed> you might find a LUG (linux user group) over there in VICland Skript101
 i do you guys
[11:37] <bostwick> :|
[11:37] <erUSUL> yinlong: bash is a shell the program that provides the command line interface in unix/linux systems
[11:37] <crid_> because none of the laptops I've tried->suspend to ram does not work
[11:37] <crid_> girls too!

[11:39] <pkkm> OH!!! it seems like I did sth wrong with ntfsresize and I have now 10gb free space (i had 60g free before)! why??
[11:39] <ror> is there a way to get the volume control in Jaunty back to how it was in Intrepid (i.e. vertical, or at the very least so scrolling up increases volume!) (at the moment scrolling up with the mousewheel slides it left, reducing volume
[11:39] <bostwick> on a side note
[11:40] <bostwick> apparantly I dont have config in linux
[11:40] <bostwick> or dhcpd
[11:41] <gordonjcp> ror: that's odd
[11:41] <ror> really? is that not normal? try it
[11:41] <gordonjcp> ror: file a bug, that's weird and inconsistent behaviour
[11:41] <ror> ok
[11:42] <ror> what package should I assign it to?
[11:42] <gordonjcp> ror: hover the pointer over the volume icon and scroll the wheel - up *increases* volume
[11:42] <gordonjcp> don't know
[11:42] <littleme> hi guys can anyone help? i keep on getting a error /HOME .dmrc cannot be accessed it should belong to user, i am newb btw, but also the problem is that i can no longer see anything on desktop either
[11:42] <ror> gordonjcp, ah I see, so hovering over it increases it, but once you expand the bar doing the same over the bar decreases volume
[11:42] <ror> wow that's just insane :)
[11:42] <gordonjcp> ror: hehehe
[11:42] <ror> is there a way I can capture video?
[11:42] <Madpilot> ror, interesting bug, does the same thing here. Nice find...
[11:43] <gordonjcp> ror: welcome to the wonderful world of computers
[11:43] <gordonjcp> ror: I use mencoder to capture video
[11:43] <ror> ok
[11:43] <Madpilot> ror, launchpad.net is where Ubuntu bugs go
[11:43] <bostwick> ouch
[11:43] <ror> yup, thanks Madpilot
[11:43] <bostwick> my wireless had a heart attack
[11:43] <pkkm> it seems like I did sth wrong with ntfsresize and I have now 10gb free space (i had 60g free before)! why??
[11:44] <littleme> hi guys can anyone help? i keep on getting a error /HOME .dmrc cannot be accessed it should belong to user, i am newb btw, but also the problem is that i can no longer see anything on desktop either
[11:45] <ikonia> pkkm: try resizing it correctly now,
[11:46] <she_dyed> with the tool suggested earlier gparted pkkm
[11:46] <Madpilot> ror, after you file that bug, post the URL here please, curious to follow it myself
[11:47] <pkkm> :)) ! Now it is resized correctly! The key thing to do was to resize ntfs with ntfsresize!
[11:47] <pkkm> I have GParted 0.4.3
[11:48] <younder> litheme: You are aware of what the icons lower right corner are? You have probaly switched screens. Point and click on the right one with the stuff on it.
[11:49] <lunix> people, I have a problem that has a very simple solution I guess.. I just see to figure out how.  By mistake i pressed " - Remove From Panel" on the "nm-applet" that makes wireless work.  I would like to get the applet back on the panel as it was before. I cant fint it in "+ Add To Panel". Anyone knows how to fix this?
[11:50] <Kartagis> i don't know what i installed or removed, but i keep getting "Video Unavailable" in everty facebook video. what may cause this?
[11:50] <pkkm> how long will increasing size of ext3 from 200 to 250gb left side take?
[11:50] <jtaji> lunix: add "Notifcation Area"
[11:51] <younder> Kartagis: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/
[11:51] <lunix> jtaji,, you saved my day! thanks a lot!
[11:51] <lunix> Now it works :D
[11:52] <RockHound> hi everyone ... stupid question but how do I prevent aptitude to remove a packages (which it thinks is unused) when purging another package? I have disabled autoremove via apt.conf.d but it seems to be ignored.
[11:53] <ror> Madpilot, I'm just filing the bug now, not sure which package it would be though, can't work out if it's gnome-applets or gnome-control-center
[11:53] <kk1> .
[11:54] <Madpilot> ror, you can leave the package blank if you're not sure
[11:54] <ror> ok
[11:54] <ror> I think i'll go for gnome-applets it seems most likely
[11:54] <ror> and the version number for it fits the version number in the about volume control
[11:55] <Madpilot> ror, that works, and if it's not the right package, someone connected to -applets will add the correct one
[11:55] <ror> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/375378

[11:58] <I_Hate_Freedom> Anybody know how to get the microphone working on a Lenovo T61p?
[11:59] <Skript101> Lol another question from me :)
[11:59] <Skript101> When Ubuntu creates the partition to put its system on, will it erase my other OS?
[12:00] <Skript101> Or will it leave it alone?
[12:00] <erUSUL> Skript101: no it shrinks the existing parition to make room
[12:00] <Kartagis> younder, I apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras, and I still get that
[12:00] <erUSUL> Skript101: if you do the full automated install
[12:00] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: Defragment the drive, then install.
[12:00] <erUSUL> Skript101: you can arrange the paritioning yourself if you want
[12:00] <Skript101> Wouldnt that erase stuff?

[12:03] <gartral_> ok, im on an ssh connection to my server, how do i generate a keyfile for connecting over ssh/scp?
[12:03] <halfmind> erUSUL: do I just type that in the same place I'm typing this message?
[12:03] <erUSUL> Skript101: no
[12:03] <erUSUL> halfmind: yep
[12:04] <halfmind> erSUL: cool.  thanks.  we'll see what happens...
[12:04] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: No, so long as there is blank space on the hard drive for the installation.
[12:04] <Skript101> OH so it must use the hard drive to create a new partition then?
[12:05] <Madpilot> ror, your bug had actually already been filed. I marked it as a duplicate.
[12:06] <Madpilot> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-applets/+bug/335333 <-- there's the earlier filing
[12:06] <coolman99_>  which 3d applications can ubuntu use? For instance maya , softimage and so on,
[12:06] <younder> coolman99_:  lol, sorry for the lack of emtusiasm, but take a good look at the number of userers.
[12:06] <erUSUL> coolman99_: maya has linux version not sure about softimage
[12:06] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: Ubuntu is creating a new partition on your hard drive when it installs in that fashion. It will dual boot using the GRUB boot loader.
[12:06] <ror> ok thanks Madpilot
[12:07] <younder> coolman99_:  personal edition only
[12:07] <Skript101> I wanna keep my windoze boot loader though...
[12:07] <Madpilot> ror, it's one of those irritating bugs, known before release but not fixed...
[12:07] <younder> Unless you are willing to slpit with 10000$
[12:07] <Skript101> So i can access bios]
[12:07] <ror> how easy would it be to have a go at fixing this myself?
[12:07] <Skript101> Wait
[12:08] <Skript101> Is there way to access bios through ubuntu?
[12:08] <Skript101> harro?
[12:08] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: You can still access the BIOS settings. They come on before the boot loader.
[12:08] <BigMack83> seems my sound stopped working and now have no sound in 9.04. It seems like it may have to do with the alsa sound card driver? but not sure. any idea where i can start?
[12:08] <ror> should that bug's status be changed from new/triaged to something like confirmed?
[12:09] <matt7676> has killall superseded kill? Or has kill some advantages, that killall has not?
[12:09] <younder> Skript101: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=318789
[12:09] <Madpilot> ror, duplicate bugs just vanish, basically, so no need to change status
[12:09] <nurettin_> hello i am using k3b sudo k3b but i cant use normal
[12:09] <ror> I meant on the original
[12:09] <nurettin_> why ?
[12:10] <ror> the original's status is still "new" in gnome-applets and "triaged" in gnome-applets (ubuntu)
[12:10] <helloyo> i'm running 64bit ubuntu, but my RAM is coming up as 3.8GB instead of 4GB, is this correct?
[12:10] <Madpilot> ror, the "new" tag is set remotely - notice the "assigned to" field has a link to Gnome's bugtracker
[12:10] <Skript101> Dude, im on my DS
[12:10] <Skript101> I cant browse internet
[12:11] <Skript101> Without rebooting
[12:11] <Madpilot> ror, and the Gnome bug's had no action on it since it was filed
[12:11] <Skript101> Just copy+paste
[12:11] <ror> http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581448 < so I see, it's sitting as an "unconfirmed, minor importance" bug
[12:12] <parapanghelescu> !vnc
[12:12] <Skript101> And what did you mean bios goes on before boot loader
[12:12] <Skript101> !vnc Skript101
[12:12] <Sweet_Death> Hi people
[12:12] <Skript101> ???
[12:12] <Madpilot> ror, exactly, and Launchpad has a bot that tracks the status of bugs like that one on other bug reporting sites
[12:12] <Vixen_> Question: Is there any damage possible by installing a 32-bit OS on a 64-bit architecture?
[12:12] <younder> !wins
[12:12] <Skript101> No comment..
[12:12] <younder> !cron
[12:13] <Sweet_Death> i there any way to open docx like office 2007 formats in Ubuntu?
[12:13] <she_dyed> Vixen_, no
[12:13] <younder> !samba
[12:13] <Vixen_> she_dyed, cheers.
[12:13] <Skript101> Hello?
[12:13] <she_dyed> Vixen_, people use it when they're not ok with 64b yet
[12:14] <Vixen_> she_dyed, aye, I have a 64bit machine, but I doubt I've enough ram to run 64bit OS, so I was just checking up
[12:14] <ror> so probably the best way forward is to register myself at gnome.org and have a go at producing a patch?
[12:14] <Skript101> !gnome
[12:14] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: The BIOS comes on in order to tell the computer where it's disks can be accessed. The boot loader comes on after that to figure out which operating system you will want to use.
[12:14] <Skript101> dunna what the hell it is :D\\
[12:15] <she_dyed> Vixen_, you can move to it later after you've added more ram
[12:15] <younder> Vixen_: Xubuntu is the low RAM option
[12:15] <Madpilot> ror, if you're a coder, go for it. You could also use the Launchpad bug to work out the patch, and let LP send it upstream
[12:15] <Hmousa> Hi , anyone know how to get Mezzo Desktop , which is used at Symphony OS !
[12:15] <ikonia> Hmousa: I don't think ubuntu's packaged it
[12:15] <Vixen_> she_dyed, younder, thanks, I've enough to run the 32-bit version of straight ubuntu
[12:15] <gartral_> ok, im on an ssh connection to my server, how do i generate a keyfile for connecting over ssh/scp?
[12:15] <Vixen_> So I'm going to be going with that
[12:15] <Madpilot> ror, #ubuntu-bugs & #ubuntu-desktop are two useful channels
[12:16] <ikonia> !keys
[12:16] <Hmousa> there was an old package i had from debian repo, but not exist anymore
[12:16] <she_dyed> Vixen_, sounds good
[12:16] <ikonia> rats
[12:16] <ikonia> ganteng: there is a guide on https://help.ubuntu.com
[12:16] <younder> Vixen_: kernel panic?
[12:16] <lillarog_> i was connected to my server via putty ssh but my connection broke... now i'm connected again. is it possible to switch to the original terminal window?
[12:16] <pjolk> how the hell can I get proper resolution on my screen? it uses only 800*600 maximum which is useless
[12:16] <Skript101> No, can i go into bios to overclock after ubuntu has been installed?
[12:16] <Vixen_> younder, I'm not sure matey, I'm off to try it now
[12:16] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: Just defragment the hard drive and install Ubuntu using the Ubuntu boot disk. It will allow you to create a new partition for Ubuntu while leaving your other operating system in perfect working condition.
[12:16] <Skript101> And boot menu
[12:16] <ikonia> gartral_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto
[12:16] <Vixen_> she_dyed, cheers for your help, I'm off to burn a cd of 9.04
[12:17] <she_dyed> Vixen_, got a cold one in the fridge
[12:17] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: You'll be able to do all of that.
[12:17] <she_dyed> its your backup plan :) Vixen_  you're welcome
[12:17] <DJones> Sweet_Death: Open Office is able to open docx file's
[12:17] <Vixen_> Later <3
[12:17] <Madpilot> Skript101, of course. Ubuntu doesn't touch the BIOS
[12:17] <gartral_> ikonia: i'm ssh'd into the system though..
[12:17] <ikonia> gartral_: thats fine
[12:17] <Skript101> And safe mode will still work in windows to?
[12:18] <Sweet_Death> DJones which version? mine cant open
[12:18] <ror> Madpilot, I'm half a coder ;), I code at work in my job but I've never tried contributing to open source/large projects before so I don't know so much about how the management side of it works
[12:18] <Skript101> Oh wat the hell is this ubunbot
[12:18] <ikonia> gartral_: to use keys you'll need access to the box to put your keys on, soo it's good that you are already logged in
[12:18] <ikonia> Skript101: ?
[12:18] <Skript101> !debian
[12:18] <Madpilot> ror, Ubuntu is run thru IRC channels & mailing lists, basically.
[12:19] <ror> ok
[12:19] <Madpilot> Skript101, dualboot will still leave all the usual Windows modes intact
[12:19] <Skript101> Oh, good!
[12:19] <Skript101> :_
[12:19] <gartral_> ikonia: yea.. i've had SSH access working for some time, but i'de like the keyfile
[12:19] <ikonia> gartral_: ok - so follow the guide I sent you and it should explain how to setup keys
[12:19] <Skript101> Ill just have to wait until my mums pc is mine in like a few months then
[12:19] <gartral_> ikonia: if i have an Qs, ill ask
[12:20] <Skript101> I can still boot from cd
[12:20] <pjolk> how the hell can I get proper resolution on my screen? it uses only 800*600 maximum which is useless
[12:20] <DJones> Sweet_Death: I think it was version 3.0 that brought it in as standard, although there was a plugin for earlier versions but my link to that is no longer working
[12:20] <Skript101> pjolk: Do you have windows? I can help if you do.
[12:20] <Madpilot> ror, that -desktop channel - and the desktop mailing list - are probably the best places to start. Say hi, ask questions, get someone to help you, etc
[12:20] <lunix> pjolk,  sounds like your videocard needs to get installed
[12:21] <ikonia> Skript101: windows support is in ##windows please.
[12:21] <ror> thanks

[12:22] <Skript101> NAH MAN ITS IN #Poo
[12:22] <jurism> hi! Can you tell me please what should I write in terminal instead of space character? Thank You!

[12:22] <Skript101> I knew that lol
[12:22] <ikonia> Skript101: this channel is for ubuntu support ONLY - if you don't have anything to say on that topic, please don't speak
[12:22] <vigo> pjolk: Onboard chipset or PCI card?
[12:22] <Sweet_Death> thanks Djones
[12:23] <Skript101> but ok
[12:24] <Skript101> Ok
[12:24] <Skript101> Ubuntu only
[12:24] <Skript101> Got it

[12:25] <Skript101> Ive heard about something called WINE. Whats that?
[12:25] <Bulevil> Hello, forum is down?
[12:25] <Sweet_Death> i want to select one to install on my laptop
[12:25] <Skript101> I do know its ubuntu
[12:25] <zxd> How do I report bug in ubuntu
[12:26] <zxd> package bug
[12:26] <lunix> WINE is for running MS applications in Linux I think
[12:26] <DJones> !wine | Skript101
[12:26] <Madpilot> zxd, launchpad.net
[12:26] <vigo> pjolk: I guess that would be chipset. did or have you installed the drivers for your Hardware or tweaked the .xorg configurations?
[12:26] <ranf> !info wine
[12:26] <Madpilot> ubottu, bugs | zxd
[12:26] <younder> Skript101: Basically debian has all the bells and wistles of all opensource software writtten since Stallman started OSF. Ubuntu has restricted it to stuff that is current and of good quality and likely to be useful to most people. (Not just geeks.)
[12:27] <ikonia> !wine > Skript101
[12:28] <Skript101> Oh ok

[12:36] <Skript101> Its is what this channel is for, right?

[12:36] <Skript101> It*
[12:36] <kr0y> forceflow: So how do I enable it?

[12:38] <bazhang> Skript101, what pages
[12:38] <Skript101> Im on my DS
[12:38] <I_Hate_Freedom> Skript101: Ubuntu can have all of the abilities that other operating systems have and then some. It's much better than Windows IMHO.
[12:38] <ikonia> Skript101: wait until you get to a PC then to do some research
[12:38] <Skript101> Simple yes no question
[12:38] <bazhang> Skript101, what does your DS have to do with ubuntu?
[12:38] <ikonia> Skript101: "yes"
[12:39] <forceflow> kr0y: tons of Network manager bugreports here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager

[12:50] <remoteCTR1> Kartagis, errr epiphany i meant, sorry :D
[12:50] <vigo> I like Epiphany, Icecat and others. Epiphany is a great one.
[12:52] <Kartagis> damn! I get the same error with epiphany too
[12:52] <kr0y> can anyone please help me to enable wireless in my system?
[12:53] <younder> bluetooth?

[12:54] <younder> bluetoot is  a wireless protocol
[12:54] <mefiX> why doesn't package ubuntu-xen-server install no xen-kernel?
[12:55] <remoteCTR1> kr0y, there is this settings file from networ-manager if i only could recall it's name/location, anyways there is an option "managed" uin there, you need to set that one to "true" then all of the connections can be managed by network manager
[12:55] <Dark_Haseo> i have a problem installing an es patch on photoshop with wine. can anyone hepl me whit that
[12:55] <kr0y> remoteCTR1: /etc/network/interfaces ??
[12:55] <kr0y> nope remoteCTR1
[12:55] <remoteCTR1> mefiX, because 8.04 long term support version was the last version that provided a dom0 kernel for xen
[12:56] <remoteCTR1> kr0y, nope something like nm-connection-settings or so
[12:56] <vigo> Kartagis: I am using SeaMonkey for a bunch of stuff, it is very flexible, I do prefer IceCat , but it is very limited in Java and proprietary stuff like Adobe or such stuff.

[13:03] <[nrx]> hi all. I'm trying to copy a large file from a DVD. It is greater than 4GB. On a windows box, I can see the file no problem however it is marked as hidden. When I try and 'see' the file in Ubuntu (nautilus or on console) the files simply don't exist. I've set gconf to show hidden files. I've also tried 'ls -lar'. Can anyone help?
[13:04] <younder> [nrx]: oops, larger than 2Gb
[13:05] <vigo> Kartagis: Was worth a try.
[13:05] <[nrx]> younder, so?
