[00:00] <almostautomated> hbekel: yes
[00:00] <danbhfive> box: did installing OSS remove anything?
[00:00] <almostautomated> hbekel: not sure what that maps to on the keyboard though
[00:01] <hbekel> almostautomated: the left alt key
[00:01] <almostautomated> hbekel: will try
[00:01] <box> danbhfive, i don't know, it might have overwritten some stuff for all i know.
[00:01] <GuidMorrow> why is there no amd64 wine package
[00:01] <jiffe> will gfs/ocfs slow down the more nodes I add to it?
[00:01] <illikawn> ubuntu server sparc doesnt detect a cdrom :(
[00:01] <box> GuidMorrow, 64bit wine is all messed up and not wort trying, hence no 64bit package
[00:02] <sphenxes> Is it possible to encrypt a partition (FAT 32) under Ubuntu using Truecrypt and open this partition latter under windows xp?
[00:02] <box> GuidMorrow, if you want to compile it yourself there are instructions on the wine wiki, but it won't be easy, and the product will be inferior
[00:02] <almostautomated> hbekel: no dice. same situation  and besides the default PS1 I've used the git PS1, both have the same issue
[00:02]  * almostautomated tries a diff term
[00:03] <danbhfive> box: did you use a package?
[00:03] <box> danbhfive, i don't think so, it was some script provided by oss
[00:04] <danbhfive> box: did you run the uninstall with that script?
[00:04] <box> danbhfive, i think so? this was a while ago. gimme a minute.
[00:05] <hbekel> almostautomated: does echo $COLUMNS correspond to your terminal width in characters?
[00:05] <almostautomated> ikanobori: well xterm doesn't even take the keys as command mode keys and instead gives me nifty pretty little characers :P
[00:06] <superjoel> I want to extract 2 different types of tags in a xml file with awk or sed or grep.. what is the best way to go around this?
[00:06] <danbhfive> box: yeah, I think you gota look at that script, since that could have made any sort of change.  You are beholden to that script
[00:06] <ikanobori> almostautomated: Isn't your alt key mapped to compose or something?
[00:06] <box> danbhfive, sorry, i used a deb package, and i did uninstall it.
[00:06] <almostautomated> hbekel: yes
[00:06] <hbekel> almostautomated: for xterm to work with alt, hold ctrl+click on xterm and check metaSendsEscape
[00:06] <danbhfive> box: which package?
[00:07] <scott1> okay newbie here I have a audio mixer with a usb out that I want to record with in ubuntu any help here?
[00:07] <box> danbhfive, http://www.4front-tech.com/release/oss-linux-4.1-1052_i386.deb
[00:07] <box> the one from the oss site
[00:07] <almostautomated> ikanobori: one sec I'll pastebin the key setup
[00:07] <scott1> any good audio recording programs recomended with ubuntu?
[00:07] <Vanion> Having problem with my sound , I'm able to listen to music etc but can't hear/talk trough voice programs like Teamspeak , Skype etc... someone know how to fix?
[00:08] <hbekel> almostautomated: pastebin your current PS1 too, just to make sure
[00:08] <almostautomated> hbekel: checked the metaSendsEscape; no change
[00:09] <danbhfive> box: yeah, I don't know, sorry
[00:09] <box> scott1, you want simple stuff or a pro tools substitute?
[00:09] <box> danbhfive, i'll keep working on it, thanks
[00:09] <hbekel> almostautomated: left_alt+b doesn't work in xterm?
[00:09] <scott1> pro tools sub not as extrordanary
[00:09] <almostautomated> hbekel: sorry, I meant that it now sends, but the prompt issue happens there as well
[00:10] <kamokow> Hi, I installed Apache 2 on my Ubuntu 9.04 machine. I used "sudo apt-get install apache2". Anyways, I was wondering if it just always stays on (and starts up with my system). If so, how do I turn it of, if not, how do I turn it on when I reboot?
[00:10] <scott1> just know I hate windows
[00:10] <box> scott1, http://ardour.org/
[00:11] <scott1> thanks
[00:11] <sorteal_work> Ardour is very nice!
[00:11] <box> scott1, it's in the repos
[00:12] <danbhfive> kamokow: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 stop         will stop it.  But I think it will restart at reboot.  I don't know how to stop if for longer than that
[00:12] <kbp> nah it stops forever
[00:12] <almostautomated> hbekel: && ikanobori::  here's my bashrc  the currently active prompt is the git prompt at the very bottom, the same issue happens when using the default installed prompt listed higher up in the source.  I'll get those key bindings now
[00:12] <kamokow> ok, thanks guys ^_^
[00:13] <kbp> until reboot

[00:16] <bastidrazor> Quincy, i don't know anything about webcams.
[00:16] <Quincy> hmm okay

[00:16] <ToStItOs> bastidrazor: thanks
[00:17] <Quincy> thx

[00:21] <hbekel> almostautomated: the effective PS1 looks ok. in you xmodmap setup both left and right alt are equivalent
[00:21] <crankharder> what package do I install to get the nvidia 6xxx 64bit drivers installed?
[00:21] <crankharder> nvidia-glx?
[00:22] <almostautomated> hbekel: so neither of those two things looks to be the issue?  I've just installed rxvt-beta... I'll try it one there
[00:23] <hbekel> almostautomated: you are not using color?
[00:23] <almostautomated> hbekel: I am using color
[00:24] <almostautomated> same thing in rxvt
[00:24] <crankharder> anyone know how to launch Add/Remove Applications from the cmd line?
[00:24] <hbekel> almostautomated: that suggests it's a readline thing
[00:25] <bastidrazor> crankharder, doesn't the restricted drivers or hardware drivers offer any?
[00:25] <almostautomated> hbekel: I did do the correct 'set -o emacs'   yes?
[00:25] <hbekel> almostautomated: bash is in emacs mode by default
[00:25] <crankharder> bastidrazor: i dunno, I dont have a panel -- upgrading the kernel screwed everything up
[00:25] <hbekel> almostautomated: unless your VISUAL or EDITOR are set to vi
[00:26] <almostautomated> hbekel: I just wanted to make sure I was in the right mode :)
[00:26] <bastidrazor> crankharder, ah, you installed the drivers manually?
[00:26] <oli1> hello, I just bought a packard bell easynote and I've got everything set up fine except for the sound which doesn't work at all, here is some info oli@pb:~$ cat /proc/asound/card*/codec* | grep Codec

[00:26] <RPG_Master> Is their anyway I can make DigiKam integrate better with GNOME?
[00:27] <DaZ-> RPG_Master, qgtkstyle
[00:27] <Cige> ok, so I recently installed conky on my laptop and made a config file, which works fine.  The only problem is that when conky loads at bootup it appears windowed, and covers part of my taskbar.  If I restart conky it works fine, but how do I make it work at startup?
[00:27] <cake_baker> seems like my problem is more ext4 related than anything else
[00:27] <cake_baker> it's fix in the last linux kernel release
[00:27] <crankharder> bastidrazor: well the ubuntu packge didn't work for years, i got in a habit of doing that
[00:27] <RPG_Master> I think I have that :(
[00:27] <oli1> does anyone have experience setting up ubuntu on packard bell laptops?
[00:27] <Paddy_EIRE> RPG_Master, http://labs.trolltech.com/page/Projects/Styles/GtkStyle
[00:27] <hbekel> almostautomated: shopt
[00:27] <scott1> okay I download ardour how do I install it?
[00:28] <hbekel> almostautomated: no sorry, it's set -o
[00:28] <prince_jammys> set 0i
[00:28] <prince_jammys> typo!
[00:28] <prince_jammys> but yeah, set -o
[00:28] <RPG_Master> Paddy_EIRE: How do I install it? I put in the commands and it didn't install :(
[00:28] <bastidrazor> crankharder, you could just use the driver you already have.. reinstall the same way or try to let ubuntu give you a driver. which version of ubuntu are you on?
[00:29] <Quincy> is there something that i can like..use a static image as webcam?
[00:29] <Paddy_EIRE> RPG_Master, just a moment.. I am not on ubuntu at the moment
[00:29] <almostautomated> hbekel: vi is not on... one sec I'll paste it
[00:30] <RPG_Master> Paddy_EIRE: ok then, I can wait :)
[00:30] <almostautomated> hbekel: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d14bf7afb
[00:30] <hbekel> almostautomated: no need to paste, look for emacs
[00:30] <almostautomated> it is on
[00:30] <Cige> basiaclly every time I boot my computer I have to type in "killall conky" and then cd /home/(user)/scripts and then sh multi_conky.sh to start both my conky scripts.
[00:30] <Quincy> is there something that i can like..use a static image as webcam?
[00:30] <prince_jammys> that's the default. set -o vi if you want the other.
[00:30] <amx109> when i try to enable desktop effects, all i get is a 'desktop effects cannot be enabled message'. the proprietary ATI drivers are installed via the 'hardware drivers' preferences. how can i get more detailed information on why its failing, so that i can fix it?
[00:31] <Cige> how do I make it so that when multi_conky.sh loads automatically It will appear like it does after I launch it with the command line?
[00:31] <Paddy_EIRE> RPG_Master, could you do "apt-cache search gtkstyle" in a terminal to see what packages it returns?
[00:32] <hbekel> almostautomated: bash --version ?
[00:32] <bastidrazor> crankharder, since 8.04 i've had excellent nVidia support from the ubuntu offered drivers
[00:32] <almostautomated> hbekel: 3.2.48
[00:32] <RPG_Master> Paddy_EIRE: I am putting in the command... And it does nothing :|
[00:34] <hbekel> almostautomated: please try with a simple PS1="> "
[00:34] <Paddy_EIRE> RPG_Master, have a look here they even have installable packages for both 32 and 64 bit http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=834784
[00:34] <almostautomated> hbekel: it is sort-of nice to know it wasn't just something real basic that I missed
[00:35] <almostautomated> hbekel: I'll do longer but simple since it Couldn't really test if it didn't move
[00:36] <almostautomated> hbekel: OK, let me take back that last bit...  I used 6 '>' and it worked
[00:36] <bruce89> hey ho
[00:36] <almostautomated> hbekel: guess I need to do some PS1 testing
[00:37] <Cige> right now at startup my computer uses sh /home/christopher/scripts/multi_conky.sh to launch conky, but when it does that conky does not appear on the background, but rather as a window able to cover up others.  However if I manually killall conky and then relaunch it, it works perfectly fine.  Is there a reason that it does not work at startup?
[00:37] <legend2440> scott1: no need to download ardour its in the repos. you can install it from synaptic or sudo apt-get install ardour  in terminal
[00:37] <almostautomated> hbekel: gtg for about 10 minutes, thank you very much for the help so far, I'll check the PS1 when I get back

[00:42] <Paddy_EIRE> RPG_Master, I am not entirely sure as I am not on linux right now and I am in the middle of a download so it will be a while before I can offer any proper support
[00:42] <RPG_Master> Paddy_EIRE: I think I just figured it out :)
[00:45] <Jyxt> Dist: simply copying the ubuntu iso to a usb drive will not work

[00:51] <Quincy> Single*
[00:51] <Quincy> according to Webcamstudio
[00:51] <Uhuru> hi everybody
[00:51] <Kevin`> sharperguy: it's from electrical noise. if you plug into the back you probably won't get it. i've heard grounding the jack/cable can help, but i'd try shielding it
[00:51] <Kevin`> anyone help with my email?
[00:52] <sharperguy> Paddy_EIRE, lol! kamokow, like a crackling/buzzing.
[00:52] <Paddy_EIRE> sharperguy, tried turning the mic volume down in your volume control
[00:52] <kamokow> sharperguy: you cant really get rid of it, if its plugged into external speakers, try plugging it directly into the computer
[00:52] <sharperguy> Kevin`, Ah thanks. I've plugged it into the only port on my laptop. I guessed it was electrical interference just wondered if there was an easy way to get rid of it
[00:52] <almostautomated> hbekel: nope.  I commented out the previous one and put in the one you pasted with an export, started a new terminal, and same issue.
[00:52] <hector__> my hard drive has 300GB, with ubuntu in it i want to make another partition to save files
[00:53] <Uhuru> does any one know how to calibrate the screen rotation on a tablet Pc? actually i have a lenovo x200 tablet and  so far i did not find any solution of my poroblem in the internet
[00:53] <Kevin`> sharperguy: lowering the volume CAN help sometimes, depending where it happens
[00:53] <bastidrazor> hector__, gparted liveCd .. you'll need to have the drive unmounted
[00:53] <bastidrazor> !gparted
[00:53] <kamokow> hector__: You can also use the Ubuntu Live CD
[00:53] <hector__> but my files are gonna be remove__
[00:54] <Kevin`> sharperguy: have pcm high and master volume low
[00:54] <sharperguy> Kevin`, Well it is louder when the volume is at max, but theres no difference between 0 and 75
[00:54] <kamokow> hector:__: they shouldnt get removed...
[00:54] <hbekel> almostautomated: hmm, then i'm out of ideas… btw i'm on bash 4.0.28, and a lot of prompt display bugs are mentioned fixed in the changelog from 3.x to 4.x
[00:54] <danbhfive1> sharperguy: I get some noise on my desktop when a usb is plugged into a certain port

[00:54] <Quincy> so kamakow think ya can help me?
[00:54] <zagabar> Hi. I am having an odd problem. My server is running ubuntu hardy and it was doing fine. However, my dad accidentally tore out my network cable, and the ethernet cart wasn't screwed static, so it might have moved some in the PCI slot. The problem is that when I plugged back the cable, internet failed to start. I rebooted the server and it still failed to start. No one could ping the server and the server could ping no one. when I resta
[00:54] <hector__> ok so what type of partition should i choose_
[00:54] <Kevin`> can someone help me with my email? (see above)
[00:54] <kamokow> Quincy: My only advice is looking for a driver for it
[00:54] <kamokow> hector__: It depends what you are using it for
[00:55] <Quincy> kamokow: that isnt the problem because the webcam itself works
[00:55] <hector__> just to save files
[00:55] <Quincy> just not in firefox wich is a pain in the ass if i am gun record videos to YT
[00:55] <Uhuru> did someone see my question above?
[00:55] <danbhfive1> hector__: do you want to share with a windows install?
[00:55] <almostautomated> hbekel: Thank you very much for the assistance!  I'll try upgrading the bash after narrowing down the prompt.
[00:55] <hector__> no
[00:55] <hector__> and if so
[00:55] <danbhfive1> hector__: then just do ext3
[00:55] <hector__> i want to learn
[00:55] <kamokow> hector__: do ext3 or something
[00:55] <hbekel> almostautomated: upgrading to bash 4 will be a disruptive update, beware
[00:55] <Kevin`> Quincy: so it's not working in flash
[00:56] <kamokow> hector__: however, if a windows partition needs to see it to, that wont work so use NTFS
[00:56] <Quincy> Kevin` that is kinda the problem,yea
[00:56] <almostautomated> hbekel: oh :(  guess I'll concentrate on the PS1 before diving in too deep then.  Thanks for the warning!
[00:56] <Uhuru> how to calibrate screen rotation on Lenovo x200 tablet running under ubuntu jaunty?
[00:56] <hector__> ok thankss
[00:56] <hbekel> almostautomated: it brings along readline 6.0, so all programs linked against it will require a rebuild, or you'll have to keep readline 5 around along with 6
[00:57] <kamokow> hector__: have fun with your patitioning ^_^
[00:57] <oldude67> zagabar, shut the computer off, take the side off the computer and make sure the network card is in all the way, then see if it works, if not the end of the cord could be bad as well.
[00:57] <almostautomated> hbekel: either that or use the vi bindings :)
[00:57] <hector__> ok thanks man
[00:57] <hbekel> almostautomated: if it's a prompt redisplay issue, it will cause trouble in vi-mode as well
[00:57] <kamokow> hector__: be sure (just in case) you back up any really important files
[00:58] <hector__> ok
[00:58] <zagabar> oldude67: Okay, I will try that.
[00:58] <almostautomated> hbekel: well, what's interesting is the test that I did (back-up three words) worked in vi mode
[00:58] <Dist> OK i have been reading through that page on installing from USB, and it seems to use the live usb creator i need to run the live CD, the problem is i dont have a CD, which is why i wanted to use USB

[00:58] <kamokow> see you guys in abit im gunna go get dinner
[00:59] <hbekel> almostautomated: then it's even stranger…

[01:03] <shovon> macius: what's the previous driver?
[01:03] <Uqbar> Eklianteh: you'll have to make two partitions on the USB stick: one without encryption, to carry truecrypt, and the other encrypted. or you could have just one nonencrypted partition in which to store the encrypted filesystem in a file, but this might be slower.
[01:03] <shovon> macius: is it an ati card?

[01:04] <danbhfive1> Uhuru: and you may want to watch this page (see if it gets updated): http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Installing_Ubuntu_9.04_(Jaunty_Jackalope)_on_a_ThinkPad_X200
[01:04] <lakotajames> compiz stopped working.  Help?
[01:05] <almostautomated> hbekel: it's one of those challenges best served with good liquor  ;)
[01:05] <shovon> lakotajames: Tell us more.
[01:05] <hbekel> almostautomated: indeed
[01:05] <Uqbar> Eklianteh: I'm going to bed, sorry. but just google along the lines of my previous answer and you'll find your way pretty soon.
[01:05] <Eklianteh> kk
[01:05] <Jyxt> Eklianteh: you could do 2 partitions, one small one to contain truecrypt the other encrypted to hold your data...or you could keep it all unencrypted  and just use encrypted files etc...truecrypt is very versatile
[01:05] <zagabar> oldude67: You are my saviuor! It worked. :D
[01:05] <zagabar> Thank
[01:05] <zagabar> s
[01:05] <Uqbar> Jyxt: heh
[01:06] <lakotajames> shovon:  I don't know  any more.  It used to work, then it randomly stopped.  I went to the appearance thingy, and changed desktop effects to  none, then changed it back to extra, and it says they couldn't be enabled.
[01:06] <Eklianteh> I'd like to have the encrypted partition.  Is there a way to make Truecrypt autorun whenever I insert the stick?  And if so, how do I make it work on windows, linux, AND mac?
[01:07] <Jyxt> Eklianteh: i believe what you asking...the autorun and working on 3x OS is beyond the scope of this irc chat room
[01:07] <Jyxt> Uqbar: oops, didnt see your answer there :P
[01:07] <Uhuru> danbhfive1: thanks a lot, i have already takena look on theses pages but i´m still hang
[01:07] <Eklianteh> True.  My apologies
[01:08] <Jyxt> Eklianteh: but really part of encryption is not letting 'them' know your running encryption...ie counter-intelligence no
[01:09] <Jyxt> be better to run the hidden files part of truecrypt...keep it all plaintext, put a bunch of 'normal' looking files and hide your data in those
[01:09] <m1dlg> how do I fix my drive permissions? I can't open my USB DVD drive, and I don't have any other and this has been a problem for a while. sudo chown user:user /media/? doesn't work but does on a couple of HDD's I sometimes plug in. I can't get it to work persistently though
[01:10] <kamokow> Im back
[01:10] <kamokow> m1dlg: you could use ALT+F2 then gksudo nautilus
[01:10] <Dist> found out why my unetbootin didnt work in creating a USB ubuntu installer
[01:10] <kamokow> then change the drive permissions
[01:10] <`brandon`> Hello, i am trying to use a file but it says ImportError: no module named twisted.internet
[01:11] <xenoterracide> how do I set the domain for a machine?
[01:11] <`brandon`> any idea's on what i can do?
[01:11] <Dist> turns out that even though it doesnt mention it, it only works on a FAT32 formated USB stick
[01:11] <xenoterracide> right now it shows up as host.localdomain
[01:11] <Dist> my stick was formated as NTFS
[01:11] <danbhfive1> Uhuru: yeah, makes sense.  It looks like no one has gotten it working.  If you need that feature, you should just use windows for the time being.
[01:11] <kamokow> xenoterracide: is there a network setup that you want to join. Or do you want to set one up
[01:12] <xenoterracide> I suppose join... but I'm really just looking for a file to edit
[01:12] <xenoterracide> this is on server
[01:13] <Jyxt> Dist: reformat to fat32?
[01:13] <m1dlg> kamokow - I don't get the icon there to edit. I can't give it permission if it's not there.
[01:13] <spo> have any of you beat or gotten very far in nethack or hack?
[01:13] <spo> or rogue?
[01:13] <illikawn> i prefer mud
[01:13] <illikawn> and circlemud at that
[01:13] <kamokow> m1dlg: run nautilus, navigate to your dvd drive then right click -> properties -> permissions
[01:14] <Jyxt> mud is pretty broad, in thats not a game its a genre so to speak
[01:14] <hbekel> xenoterracide: grep the init scripts for hostname and domainname, maybe?
[01:14] <Jyxt> same with circlemud :P
[01:14] <Jyxt> while nethack is an actual game
[01:14] <m1dlg> If the DVD drive showed up I would, it's not there until I have permission to mount it
[01:14] <Jyxt> m1dlg: edit your /etc/fstab to allow users to mount the drive?
[01:15] <kamokow> Oh, I see, i misunderstood your problem, sorry
[01:15] <marcelo_>  I have some type conversions on my code and g++ is not issuing warnings that it should, even though -Wall is enabled, Is this the right flag for type conversion? Is there any flag to turn every warning in error?
[01:15] <m1dlg> jyxt - how?
[01:15] <hbekel> spo: not sure if nethack is even designed to be beat :)
[01:15] <Uhuru> danbhfive1: right, however as I real am allergic to windows, I´ll try to forget the screen rotation option hopping that one day developpers will furnish us some script or some ¨ready to use¨ packages for that
[01:16] <Slart> marcelo_: afaik -Wall should warn about all the stuff it can
[01:16] <heater> If anyone has some time i am having a few Eclipse Problems.
[01:16] <Jyxt> m1dlg: do nano /etc/fstab and look for a line like
[01:16] <Jyxt> /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro 0 0
[01:16] <danbhfive1> heater: whats the problem?
[01:16] <Slart> marcelo_: although I'm not sure a type conversion is supposed to give a warning.. unless it's implicit
[01:16] <Jyxt> something like that...and add: users to the noauto,ro part so it looks like noauto,ro,users
[01:17] <paissad-hp> hi everybody !
[01:17] <heater> Well currently i have downloaded Eclipse 3.5 I am not using the dev package, but when i create a java project it gives me this error "Problems occurred while trying to save the state of the workbench.
[01:17] <heater>   Could not write metadata for '/testJava'.
[01:17] <heater>   /home/austin/workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/testJava/.markers (No such file or directory)
[01:17] <heater> "
[01:17] <bruce89> marcelo_: there are lot more flags for that than just -Wall
[01:17] <FloodBot3> heater: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:17] <Jyxt> though i have no experience with usb drives...in theory it should be the same
[01:17] <SnakDoc> hey anyone have any idea y i get logged off every so often ?
[01:17] <paissad-hp> i would like to use vnc from my laptop to my server-destop station , here is what i did
[01:17] <paissad-hp> root@paissad-server:~# ps ax | grep -i vnc | grep -v grep | pastebinit -
[01:17] <paissad-hp> http://pastebin.com/f1b031568
[01:17] <Jyxt> m1dlg: if it still doesnt work, use the uuid of the drive (unique id of the usb drive) instead of its /dev address which can change
[01:18] <paissad-hp> so we can say that there"s a vnc server
[01:18] <Slart> marcelo_: you could try -Wextra... that turns on some extra warnings that -Wall doesn't enable
[01:18] <paissad-hp> but the matter is that when i type 'vncviewer paissad-server' from my laptop , here is what i got
[01:18] <marcelo_> Slart, When I compiled the code on fedora, I got lots of issues, but here on ubuntu I am get no warning at all even though -Wall is enabled ... don't know why.
[01:18] <paissad-hp> vncviewer: ConnectToTcpAddr: connect: Connection refused
[01:18] <paissad-hp> Unable to connect to VNC server
[01:18] <paissad-hp> You are trying to send an empty document, exiting.
[01:18] <Jyxt> get uuid like so: blkid /dev/mnt/point/of/device
[01:18] <FloodBot3> paissad-hp: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:18] <paissad-hp> where am i wrong
[01:18] <Jyxt> like blkid /dev/sdc5
[01:18] <marcelo_> Slart, I will try.
[01:19] <th0r> paissad-hp: you are trying to connect as root?
[01:19] <Slart> marcelo_: not really sure why that would be... well.. have a look here.. lots of switches to play around with http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html
[01:19] <m1dlg> Jyxt, TheUSB drive is a combination drive with a HDD and a set of card readers too, the HDD is visible and the DVD is a burner
[01:19] <paissad-hp> th0r,  no,
[01:19] <m1dlg> Jyxt, I still have issues do I need a reboot?
[01:19] <kamokow> I need to use a recovery disc to install windows (dont ask why >_>), but I dont want to erase Ubuntu. Any workaround so I can do this?
[01:19] <heater> danbhfive1: have any ideas?
[01:19] <th0r> paissad-hp: then why is the root xstartup being executed?
[01:19] <danbhfive1> heater: no, sorry
[01:20] <heater> danbhfive1: ok thanks any way :)
[01:20] <Slart> marcelo_: oh.. I just found a switch called -Wconversion ... that might be what you're looking for
[01:20] <paissad-hp> th0r, the pastebin is the output from the server
[01:20] <th0r> paissad-hp: and the root .Xauthority
[01:20] <m1dlg> Jyxt, If the lines relating to my XP HDD and the DVD drive would it 'fix' it with new lines?
[01:20] <paissad-hp> th0r, it's debian, but my laptop uses ubuntu,
[01:20] <nownot> i have a ntfs raid 5, how can i mount this in ubuntu 9.04?
[01:21] <heater> if someone else can help with an eclipse problem, http://paste.ubuntu.com/255469/
[01:21] <th0r> paissad-hp: right....but I don't think vnc will run on the root account...not sure, but don't think so
[01:21] <Tarkers> Anyone know what channel I should join for help with sound problems in Karmic Koala?
[01:21] <blue0488> can anyone help I wan't to get a win game to work in wine can anyone help?
[01:21] <Jyxt> m1dlg: reboot not necessary...
[01:21] <bastidrazor> Tarkers, #ubuntu+1
[01:21] <th0r> paissad-hp: if I recall correctly, there is a config option that needs to be changed for that
[01:21] <bazhang> Tarkers, #ubuntu+1
[01:21] <Tarkers> Thanks.
[01:21] <Jyxt> m1dlg: what is the /dev/s## address of the device?
[01:22] <Jyxt> and can you mount it with root? you just need to mount it with user for permissions etc?
[01:22] <m1dlg> Jyxt, OK, I killed the drive, and started it again, it still fails. the text is as follows
[01:22] <m1dlg> yt#Entry for /dev/sdc5 :

[01:22] <SnakDoc> anyone have any idea y i get logged off every so often ?
[01:22] <paissad-hp> th0r, i runned vnc server as root maybe, but i started the computer as a simple user (not root)
[01:22] <nownot> anyone? please
[01:23] <th0r> paissad-hp: are you logging into vnc as root?
[01:23] <Ben64> you should start vncserver as a user, not root
[01:23] <marcelo_> Slart, Thak you lots of warnings now.
[01:23] <Ben64> otherwise your entire vnc session would have root privileges
[01:23] <Slart> marcelo_: you're welcome
[01:23] <paissad-hp> th0r, no, i'm loggin as simple user from my laptop,
[01:24] <th0r> Ben64: right....and if you start vnc as root you have to log in as root.
[01:24] <brad_> I did a tar from my computer to my windows box, then opened the tar in winrar and it shows some file missing
[01:24] <m1dlg> Jyxt, does the mess I sent help? it's part understandable
[01:24] <brad_> is that just winrar ?
[01:24] <blue0488> can anyone help I want to get a win game to work in wine can anyone help?
[01:24] <paissad-hp> th0r, http://pastebin.com/m10f3bf27
[01:24] <Ben64> th0r: but starting vnc as root isn't a great idea
[01:24] <Jyxt> m1dlg: sort of...did you edit /etc/fstab at all? if so remove your edits
[01:25] <th0r> paissad-hp: no...if you have to log in as the same user who started vncserver
[01:25] <paissad-hp> ok
[01:25] <Ben64> paissad-hp: have you set vncpasswd for whatever user?
[01:25] <m1dlg> Jyxt, I only added the ,m1dlg and the no to auto
[01:25] <nownot> so ntfs raid 5, how do i mount under ubuntu?
[01:25] <paissad-hp> Ben64, not yet
[01:25] <Ben64> well if unable to connect, the server might not be running vncserver
 but the matter is that when i type 'vncviewer paissad-server' from my laptop , here is what i got
[01:25] <Jyxt> m1dlg: when you plug it in...what exactly happens? ubuntu automounts it, but as a normal user you cant do anything with it?
[01:26] <TC84_> I need help with Ubuntu 8.04
[01:26] <Jyxt> m1dlg: yeah take out your edits...you dont add your username, it was 'users' but nvm
[01:26] <Ben64> paissad-hp: try "nmap paissad-server -p 5900-5910"
[01:26] <SnakDoc> anyone have any idea y i get logged off every so often ?
[01:26] <th0r> Ben64: agreed
[01:26] <th0r> paissad-hp: you can't start the vnc server as root and then try to log in as a user
[01:26] <paissad-hp> Ben64, what does this do ?
[01:26] <paissad-hp> th0r, ok
[01:26] <Ben64> makes sure you have vncserver running
[01:26] <mdg> TC84_: what's up?
[01:26] <TC84> does anyone know how to make the display take up my entire screen on an IBM thinkpad?  it's currently framed about an inch in from all sides
[01:26] <Ben64> TC84: increase resolution
[01:27] <TC84> can't
[01:27] <Ben64> !resolution | TC84
[01:27] <TC84> it's at the max it'll let me go to
[01:27] <gogeta> mdg: did my guide help anyone today :)
[01:27] <paissad-hp> Ben64, paissad@paissad-hp:/media/work/tmp/cdiscount$ nmap paissad-server -p 5900-5910 | pastebinit -

[01:27] <Ben64> well you gotta go more max
[01:27] <mdg> gogeta: hey !
[01:27] <m1dlg> Jyxt, the HDD opens and displays as a folder, the dvd does nothing. I have Disk Mounter on my panel and that shows the drive is there, I tell it to mount and it pops up with the error I don't have permisson to mount the drive.
[01:27] <Ben64> cause black borders = too small res for screen
[01:27] <mdg> gogeta: I just got here - so no not yet :)
[01:27] <gogeta> i see
[01:28] <TC84> I will try that
[01:28] <MsMaco> mdg: may i pm?
[01:28] <th0r> paissad-hp: you also have to set a vnc password with the command vncpasswd
[01:28] <TC84> is it gonna boot me from here?
[01:28] <Ben64> paissad-hp: try "vncviewer paissad-server:2"
[01:28] <TC84> I'm somewhat new to linux I dunno a whole lot about the console
[01:28] <cantoma> guys, anyone could try to use acrobat reader from windows in linux .. is this possible in any way?
[01:28] <Ben64> TC84: you do have to restart X to change resolution
[01:28] <Jyxt> m1dlg: strange that it would mount the HDD but not the DVD
[01:28] <Ben64> well.. to add a new res
[01:28] <MsMaco> cantoma: there is an acrobat reader for linux
[01:28] <paissad-hp> Ben64, it works !
[01:28] <MsMaco> cantoma: its called acroread
[01:28] <mdg> MsMaco: ??????? do i know you?
[01:28] <m1dlg> Jyxt, http://pastebin.com/m158f2ca3
[01:28] <cantoma> MsMaco, doesn't bring the latest
[01:28] <paissad-hp> :):)
[01:29] <TC84> so typing that into the console will restart it and let me change settingss?
[01:29] <Ben64> paissad-hp: :)
[01:29] <MsMaco> cantoma: oh
[01:29] <cantoma> MsMaco, i cannot play embedded mpg on it
[01:29] <MsMaco> mdg: no, was just going to mention a channel you may like
[01:29] <Ben64> paissad-hp: just try not to run vncserver as root, not very safe
[01:29] <cantoma> MsMaco, the one for windows can
[01:29] <MsMaco> cantoma: oh
[01:29] <paissad-hp> Ben64, ok i won't do that anylonger
[01:29] <Jyxt> m1dlg: and this is your only DVD drive?
[01:30] <Jyxt> m1dlg: if it is, change this line
[01:30] <Jyxt> /dev/scd0/media/cdrom0udf,iso9660auto00
[01:30] <TC84> ok I'm sure I"ll be back shortly lol
[01:30] <m1dlg> Jyxt, Iseem to have the same problems witrh other devices sometimes too. I have over 20 HDD's and onl;y some hit this error.
[01:30] <TC84> thanks guys
[01:30] <mdg> MsMaco: why me specifically?
[01:30] <cantoma> MsMaco, the one for linux only support videos from realplayer .. and realplayer doesn't support mpeg videos .. there is a big thread around this .. so basically i want to have acrobat from windows in linux
[01:30] <TC84> ok stupid question
[01:30] <Jyxt> m1dlg: to look like this /dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom auto noauto,ro,users 0 0
[01:30] <Jyxt> m1dlg: exactly like that
[01:30] <TC84> how do I load the console lol
[01:30] <MsMaco> cantoma: maybe wine then
[01:30] <m1dlg> Jyxt, I had same issue with other internal DVD, but I also have firmware bug on it so removed it too.
[01:31] <bastidrazor> cantoma, doesn't vlc play .real
[01:31] <Ben64> cantoma: acrobat != realplayer
[01:31] <Jyxt> m1dlg: after you edit that line with those changes...try the command
[01:31] <cantoma> Ben64, check your multimedia part of acroread
[01:31] <mdg> TC84: Menu -applications - terminal
[01:31] <Jyxt> mount /dev/scd0 /some/mount/point
[01:31] <cantoma> bastidrazor, its for embbeded movies
[01:31] <TC84> ty
[01:31] <Ben64> don't have acroread
[01:31] <nownot> so i do dmarid -r and get /dev/sdc: nvidia, "nvidia_jdbdefff", raid5_ls, ok,<PHONE_NUMBER> sectors, data@ 0 and the same for /dev/sdb and dev/sda, how can i mount this raid partition?
[01:32] <mdg> TC84: you welcome :)
[01:32] <ultraputz> anyone know anything about what happens when upgrade breaks whole-disk-encryption?
[01:32] <MsMaco> mdg: because your nick looks similar to mjg's and mdz's i looked at your whois, and i thought based on your name you may be intersted in #ubuntu-women...but knowing how the internet can be when the word "women" is said i wanted to say that in a pm
[01:32] <ultraputz> get password prompt, enter it, drops to busybox in initramfs
[01:32] <cantoma> Ben64, so don't check
[01:32] <bastidrazor> cantoma, totem with ubuntu-restricted-extras and gstreamer
[01:32] <SnakDoc> anyone have any idea y i get logged off every so often ?
[01:32] <mdg> oh
[01:32] <cantoma> bastidrazor, embedded movies in pdfs
[01:32] <Ben64> cantoma: you could try getting wine and installing acrobat
[01:32] <cantoma> bastidrazor, does totem shows pdfs
[01:33] <mdg> MsMaco: I now understand why you took that route
[01:33] <Zelfje> try foxit reader instead of acrobat
[01:33] <Zelfje> save heaps of resources :)
[01:33] <bastidrazor> cantoma, not that i know of.
[01:33] <m1dlg> jy the DVD drive span up when I saved it, the icon for it disapeared from the mounter tool on the panel and I got an error telling me that /mnt/cdrom? didn't exist
[01:33] <MsMaco> mdg: i have no idea how to explain that reasoning in here without saying the w word though
[01:33] <Zelfje> theres even nicer opensrc free pdf thingies
[01:33] <mdg> MsMaco: I just use this computer because its already setup
[01:33] <m1dlg> Jyxt,  the DVD drive span up when I saved it, the icon for it disapeared from the mounter tool on the panel and I got an error telling me that /mnt/cdrom? didn't exist
[01:33] <cantoma> Ben64, i will have a look if wine run acrobat reader
[01:34] <Jyxt> m1dlg: sorry go here and look at line16 make yours look like that
[01:34] <Jyxt> http://pastebin.com/m45800524
[01:34] <cantoma> bastidrazor, nowadays you even have 3D objects running in pdfs
[01:34] <Jyxt> then try mount /dev/scd0
[01:34] <cantoma> bastidrazor, movies is something that started in 1998
[01:34] <bastidrazor> cantoma, best of luck.
[01:35] <MsMaco> mdg: well if you wanna join us in that channel, feel free

[01:38] <Gadu> I tried installing a newer version of java for my firefox. After it finished I check the java version in firefox extensions and it has not changed. Any suggestions?
[01:38] <gogeta> Ben64: it normaly make that dir as a tmp when it automounts for a old school mount you gotta make it :)
[01:38] <tommy_> it just made the screen go blank

[01:39] <Ben64> tommy_: need more info of laptop, like exact model number
[01:39] <mdg> tommy_: how old is your laptop?
[01:40] <danbhfive1> heater: wow, I was guessing it wasnt a permissions problem, since it was in your /home.  weird.  Anyway, you can use the chown command, and chmod
[01:40] <tommy_> IBM ThinkPad iSeries 1300
[01:40] <tommy_> not sure on age... celeron 700
[01:40] <tommy_> sooo prolly 2000ish
[01:40] <heater> yea it is odd, but i went to the directory that it was having problems and tried to make the directory myself and it wouldn't let me...odd, so then is it "chmod user ."
[01:41] <heater> chown***
[01:41] <phoenixz> Im using nmap on a server and I have X11 in the results, is this VNC?
[01:41] <tommy_> I picked up a bunch of them for sale and kept this one for myself to tool around on cause I wanna learn to use linux
[01:41] <tommy_> due to a complete hate towards windows
[01:41] <Gadu> heater: sudo chown username:username -R /home/username
[01:41] <Gadu> that will make sure everything in your home folder will belong to you
[01:42] <m1dlg> Jyxt, FIXED!"!
[01:42] <tommy_> I went to the screen resolution setting and it's an unknown display type, won't let me change the res at all
[01:42] <mdg> tommy_: my first laptop was a Thinkpad 310ED, 166 Mhz! Whew!
[01:42] <Jyxt> m1dlg: user can mount it?
[01:42] <m1dlg> Thanks guys :)
[01:42] <danbhfive> heater: if you ls -al ~/workspace     I can help you craft a specific command
[01:42] <m1dlg> yes
[01:42] <mdg> tommy_: had the same problem you are having
[01:42] <tommy_> my first was a compaq contura 386 66 mhz
[01:42] <Gadu> heater: be sure to replace username with your actual username of course =P
[01:42] <tommy_> lol
[01:42] <tommy_> or was it 33 mhz, can't remember
[01:42] <d1gital> hello all, I have just installed Exaile, but when I try to start it, it hangs at the Exaile splash screen.  I get no interesting output when ran form terminal and it has to be killed -KILL to get the splash off my screen.  Has anyone else seen this?
[01:42] <Jyxt> m1dlg: one suggestion...type blkid dev/scd0 and copy that output into /etc/fstab
[01:42] <heater> haha yea i did
[01:42] <tommy_> how did you resolve issue mdg?
[01:42] <danbhfive> heater: Gadu 's command is a good start actually
[01:42] <m1dlg> Jyxt, I now will play, have tto decrypt and rip this one. Thanks
[01:42] <Jyxt> replace the /dev/scd0 with uuid=THE NUMBER YOU JUST GOT
[01:43] <Jyxt> since you mentioned playing with alot of HDD's...dev/s## addresses change but uuid's dont
[01:43] <heater> danbhfive: yea thanks, im going to see if eclipse has problems now
[01:43] <heater> Gadu: yea lol
[01:43] <m1dlg> ok
[01:43] <Ben64> tommy_: 650mhz?
[01:43] <mdg> tommy_: unfortunately, I couldn't....becauase it was so old
[01:43] <Jyxt> so instead of /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 auto noauto,ro,users 0 0
[01:43] <tommy_> ben64: celeron 700 mhz
[01:43] <Ben64> hm
[01:43] <Jyxt> it'll be UUID=blahblahblah /media/cdrom0 auto noauto,ro,users 0 0
[01:44] <cantoma> bastidrazor, i realise that Evince @ http://live.gnome.org/Evince/RoadmapPDF is planning to add Multimedia (Sound, Movie) feature .. but this could take years and depends of the developers rhythm
[01:44] <mdg> tommy_: which ubuntu you running?
[01:44] <tommy_> I went to bios and enabled "automatic screen expansion" but it didn't change anything
[01:44] <m1dlg> Jyxt,  I did that and got /dev/scd0: LABEL="NEW" TYPE="udf"  instead.
[01:44] <tommy_> mdg: 8.04
[01:44] <heater> that fixed the problem, awesome, thanks for your help guys
[01:44] <tommy_> tried 9.04 but it kept screwing up on me
[01:44] <heater> now lets see if i can get the Qt plugins imported properly
[01:44] <Ben64> tommy_: gimme a copy of your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:44] <Ben64> you can pastebin it
[01:45] <tommy_> lol PM me I have no idea how to do that
[01:45] <mdg> tommy_:  you running compiz?
[01:45] <tommy_> not sure what that is
[01:45] <d1gital> !pastebin
[01:45] <tommy_> this is my first boot up of linux ever
[01:45] <Jyxt> m1dlg: try ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid
[01:45] <tommy_> other than DSL that I had on a flash drive for an old clunker I was screwin with
[01:45] <nmvictor> can someone please help me with a link to Gecko,Mozilla html engine used by wine to read .chm file.tried looking for it in vain
[01:46] <mdg> tommy_: My first linux was DSL
[01:46] <Jyxt> m1dlg: then look for the one that correspponds to /dev/scd0 or whatver
[01:46] <anunaki> my first linux was SuSE Linux
[01:46] <anunaki> c.a. 2000
[01:46] <tommy_> lol nice, it's kind of an intriguing concept
[01:46] <tommy_> I had to give it a shot
[01:46] <mdg> tommy_: maybe Compiz > general settings > Display?  Guys, what do you think?
[01:46] <tommy_> what is compiz though?
[01:47] <phoenixz> tommy_: 3D desktop, special effects, etc..
[01:47] <Jyxt> m1dlg: its not *that* big a deal really...just remember that sometimes if you have alot of devices plugged in it might change teh /dev/address assignment
[01:47] <Ben64> tommy_: compiz is pretty effects
[01:47] <anunaki> compiz is what makes windows users move to linux
[01:47] <phoenixz> tommy_: something to drewl over, sometimes its even usable!
[01:47] <tommy_> lol
[01:47] <MsMaco> tommy_: compositing window manager
[01:47]  * phoenixz still wonders about the usability of the 3d rotating desktop cube and wobbly windows, even though they look awesome :)
[01:47] <tommy_> would that be in the Add/Remove programs ?
[01:48] <heater> anunaki: lol
[01:48] <MsMaco> tommy_: look up videos on YouTube
[01:48] <MsMaco> tommy_: its in the default install
[01:48] <Ali_nz> how, or what tool would you use to identify a lan cable out of a bunch? one end of the lan cable is unterminated, otherwise I would just use cable tester......
[01:48] <d1gital> phoenixz: i've gotten so used to wobbly windows i feel like my computer is broken without them.
[01:49] <phoenixz> d1gital: I imagine, but still what exactly makes it more usable?
[01:49] <tommy_> I'm kinda lost, sorry guys
[01:49] <MsMaco> Ali_nz: before installing, put labels on the two ends with "A" and "A" or something so when you are looking at one, you can find the other easily
[01:49] <m1dlg> Jyxt, If I can live with the problem I've had for so long, I can live with the address problem. it's no issue. that command doesn't make reference to the dvd so I'll play with what I've got. when the next release is out I'll buy a new drive and have a fresh instal. the upgreade is what stuffed this machine up but I ran out of 1TB drives so I can't do much till then.
[01:49] <mdg> tommy_: did you do a full install or are you running a live CD?
[01:49] <Jyxt> compiz can run on top of say xfce?
[01:49] <Ali_nz> MsMaco: they are already installed
[01:49] <MsMaco> tommy_: system -> preferences -> appearance -> desktop effects
[01:49] <tommy_> downloaded the iso, burned it, installed, and now here I am
[01:49] <Jyxt> i know in gentoo compiz is its own wm
[01:49] <edbian> I'm trying to install ubuntu and ubiquity is getting stuck at the "partition editor" stage.  The progress bar pops up and loads completely but the screen never changes from the keyboard layout
[01:49] <m1dlg> Jyxt, Many many thanks for your kind help. really appreciated.
[01:49] <Jyxt> m1dlg: glad to help :)
[01:49] <MsMaco> Ali_nz: doh. umm....boo. yeah that sounds like the way to do it. and then label them when you figure it out so you dont have to do it again
[01:49] <Dr_Willis> Jyxt:  compiz replaces teh window manager. so it could intheory run with xfce by replaceing xfwm (the xfce window manager)
[01:49] <m1dlg> good night
[01:49] <edbian> Jyxt: It is also true in ubuntu.
[01:50] <Dr_Willis> Jyxt:  compiz 'is' a window manager.
[01:50] <tommy_> I don't want to change the desktop
[01:50] <tommy_> I want to increase the screen size
[01:50] <MsMaco> tommy_: what are you trying to...
[01:50] <d1gital> phoenixz: i dont knoe really.. i mean, i assume that if i had these magical little information panes on a real deask, i wouldn't want them to wobble.
[01:50] <MsMaco> tommy_: you want to change the resolution?
[01:50] <tommy_> won't let me
[01:50] <dtcrshr> hi everyone. im following this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=873749, but i dunno how to remove the libflash i already got. on synaptic iv made a search for flash, lib, i got some results, but none checked. did the steps on the final, that seemd to work but still got no sound.. any clues?
[01:50] <MsMaco> tommy_: if you open a terminal and run "xrandr" does it list the resolution you want?
[01:50] <phoenixz> hehehe
[01:50] <Ademan> does anyone know how i can recover from a segfault when dpkg is processing libc6 triggers?
[01:50] <Jyxt> well i guess im confused on terminology then...like im running fluxbox now...if i want to run compiz i cant run fluxbox...compiz runs as its own wm...havent tried to get compiz to run under fluxbox, would be nice
[01:50] <Ben64> MsMaco: he's got a laptop, resolution is set too small, won't let him increase. The screen has a border because of it.
[01:51] <tommy_> it's 800x600 or 640x480
[01:51] <tommy_> 800x600 is the only one that works
[01:51] <MsMaco> Ben64: thanks for the summary
[01:51] <tommy_> and I'm framed on all 4 sides by an ince
[01:51] <tommy_> inch
[01:51] <tommy_> wasn't sure if there was a way I could manually adjust this or not
[01:51] <Ben64> i believe that laptop supports a max of 1024x768
[01:51] <MsMaco> tommy_: if you run "xrandr" in a terminal (appliations ->accessories -> terminal) what resolutions does it list?
[01:51] <tommy_> it does
[01:51] <Jyxt> its one or the other not both...why im asking if i could run compiz under xfce...running xubuntu on my desktop
[01:51] <MsMaco> Ben64: also good to know!
[01:51] <tommy_> let me check and get back to you in one sec
[01:51] <edbian> Jyxt: Most likely, yes
[01:51] <edbian> I'm trying to install ubuntu and ubiquity is getting stuck at the "partition editor" stage.  The progress bar pops up and loads completely but the screen never changes from the keyboard layou
[01:52] <Ben64> i'm just not an expert on modelines
[01:52] <Ben64> or i'd have it fixed in a second
[01:52] <tommy_> it says max of 800x600
[01:52] <MsMaco> tommy_: ok, does it say the refresh rate?
[01:52] <tommy_> I have another computer identicle to this one right next to me with xp on it
[01:52] <Jyxt> Ben64: maybe you need to update your gfx driver? on my desktop i had max resolution of 1024x768, updated the gfx card driver and now i can push 1600x1200 :)
[01:53] <tommy_> let me see what the res is on that one
[01:53] <tommy_> refresh rate is 60hz
[01:53] <mdg> in linux mint there is an option "Screen Resolution" - is that present in 8.04?
[01:53] <MsMaco> Ben64: man xrandr ;) its what im going off of now
[01:53] <gogeta> mdg: i tested my fix btw even with wifi off in bios ubuntu still powers up wifi gotta love overrides
[01:53] <d1gital> hello all, I have just installed Exaile, but when I try to start it, it hangs at the Exaile splash screen.  I get no interesting output when ran form terminal and it has to be killed -KILL to get the splash off my screen.  Has anyone else seen this?
[01:53] <Ben64> Jyxt: i'm not having the issue :)
[01:53] <mdg> gogeta: that's great to know!
[01:53] <MsMaco> mdg: the trouble is that X doesnt recognize 1024x768 as being possible on that screen. we're going to convince it that it is
[01:53] <Guest729> hey, can anybody here help me find out what my machine dedicated ip address is if i install ubuntu onto it? also im using a wireless router could anybody help me with this also?
[01:53] <Jyxt> Ben64: oh...hehe hard to follow sometimes i here :P
[01:53] <NFischer> im looking for a tool to create a customized ubuntu live-cd
[01:53] <Brando753> anyone know what font and filter this was made with? it was made in gimp. http://img508.imageshack.us/img508/7517/unknownn.jpg
[01:54] <alexnet> Hello #ubuntu! What do the permissions on a file need to be in order for CRON to run it?
[01:54] <Dr_Willis> mdg:  i got a screen resolution tool in system -> prrferances (or was it admin) here.
[01:54] <Ben64> Jyxt: np i know. 1200-1500 people in one channel is a lot
[01:54] <gogeta> mdg: yea great for compaq users who cant go in bios and fix it
[01:54] <_cb> Basic NoMachine (freeNx) question.  Install it on Ubuntu Server or Ubuntu Destkop. If I install it on Ubuntu Server do I need to install a gui (Am familiar with Citrix but that may be the wrong frame of reference)
[01:54] <d1gital> Guest729: ifconfig
[01:54] <Jyxt> Guest729: sudo ifconfig will tell you your IP?
[01:54] <nmvictor> NFischer: remastersys would do
[01:54] <Dr_Willis> alexnet:  a script would need to be 'executable'  'chmod +x whatever'
[01:54] <Jyxt> Guest729: but thats not a 'dedicated' IP...your router would handle that
[01:54] <tommy_> 1024x768 is what XP is running at
[01:54] <MsMaco> tommy_: ok try this: xrandr --newmode "1024x768_60.00"   63.50  1024 1072 1176 1328  768 771 775 798 -hsync +vsync
[01:54] <tommy_> and it fills the entire screen
[01:54] <NFischer> nmvictor, thx
[01:54] <alexnet> Dr_Willis, 'who' is running the script if CRON runs it? Me?
[01:54] <tommy_> oh jeez code
[01:54] <tommy_> I'm nervous
[01:54] <tommy_> lol
[01:54] <d1gital> Guest279:  checkip.dyndns.org if you're looking for an internet-facing IP
[01:55] <tommy_> copy n paste that ?
[01:55] <Guest729> but how would i find the machine ip
[01:55] <MsMaco> tommy_: yeah
[01:55] <nmvictor> NFischer:np
[01:55] <tommy_> k one sec, if it bombs out I'll be back in a few
[01:55] <d1gital> ifconfig
[01:55] <Guest729> i tryed this yesturday all it gave me was an ip that looked like <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:55] <MsMaco> tommy_: might need to pout quotes around  "63.50  1024 1072 1176 1328  768 771 775 798 -hsync +vsync" .. im not sure
[01:55] <d1gital> thats your machine ip
[01:55] <tommy_> just went to the next line down
[01:55] <Alexia7878_> bonsoir
[01:55] <Guest729> but
[01:55] <Guest729> i need the internet ip
[01:55] <Guest729> so when i install cpanel
[01:56] <MsMaco> tommy_: ok. what does xrandr call your screen?
[01:56] <Guest729> i use http://ip:2086
[01:56] <MsMaco> tommy_: LVDS maybe?
[01:56] <Ben64> Guest729: do you have physical access to the machine
[01:56] <d1gital> the internet-facing one is your router's IP to the rest of the worls, you will need to configure DMZ/NAT in your router if you need dedicated ports for that machine]
[01:56] <Guest729> yes
[01:56] <tommy_> with quotes it went to the next line down
[01:56] <Guest729> its right next to me
[01:56] <tommy_> w/o it gave me the xrandr opts list
[01:56] <Ben64> Guest729: then use the 192.x.x.x address
[01:56] <Guest729> but
[01:57] <MsMaco> tommy_: ok then with quotes was right. ill have to remember that
[01:57] <edbian> Is there a linux tool to check ntfs partitions?
[01:57] <Guest729> i want to turn it into a web server, so other people will need access to it aswell
[01:57] <tommy_> Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 800 x 600, maximum 800 x 600
[01:57] <tommy_> default connected 800x600+0+0 0mm x 0mm
[01:57] <tommy_>    800x600        60.0*    56.0
[01:57] <tommy_>    640x480        60.0
[01:57] <tommy_>   1024x768_60.00 (0x50)   63.5MHz
[01:57] <tommy_>         h: width  1024 start 1072 end 1176 total 1328 skew    0 clock   47.8KHz
[01:57] <FloodBot3> tommy_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:57] <MsMaco> tommy_: when you run "xrandr" alone what name does it give for the screen?
[01:57] <Ben64> edbian: not a reliable one afaik
[01:57] <Ben64> windows does a better job at that
[01:57] <MsMaco> tommy_: ok so its "default" ... alright
[01:57] <edbian> Ben64: Thanks
[01:57] <tommy_> floodbot got mad at me lol
[01:57] <MsMaco> tommy_: xrandr --addmode default 1024x768_60.00
[01:58] <Jyxt> Guest729: you need your public IP?
[01:58] <d1gital> hello all, I have just installed Exaile, but when I try to start it, it hangs at the Exaile splash screen.  I get no interesting output when ran form terminal and it has to be killed -KILL to get the splash off my screen.  Has anyone else seen this?
[01:58] <Guest729> i guess so
[01:58] <tommy_> no response
[01:58] <MsMaco> tommy_: that should associate the 1024x768 with your screen
[01:58] <Guest729> so other people can access my server
[01:58] <MsMaco> tommy_: no response = no error
[01:58] <Jyxt> Guest729: you can do a traceroute to google
[01:58] <Guest729> but, im behind a wireless router
[01:58] <Jyxt> traceroute www.google.com
[01:58] <d1gital> not to be rude, Guest729, but if one does not know how to find one's own IP, one should probably not be setting up a webserver.
[01:58] <MsMaco> tommy_: then "xrandr --mode 1024x768_60.00"
[01:58] <Ben64> Guest729: then the ip would be the same as your ip
[01:58] <Guest729> how do i link the 2 together?
[01:58] <rano> hi
[01:58] <Jyxt> and the 2nd or 3rd ip that shows is yhour public
[01:58] <MsMaco> tommy_: and that *should* switch you to that one
[01:58] <Ben64> Guest729: whatismyipaddress.com
[01:58] <tommy_> ok wait
[01:58] <Guest729> yes ive tryed that bit
[01:58] <tommy_> after typing  xrandr --addmode default 1024x768_60.00
[01:58] <Guest729> i got that bit
[01:59] <Guest729> but i somehow need to link the to together
[01:59] <nmvictor> d1gital: how about reinstalling, i have wine working correctly in my ubuntu 8.10, are you in 9.04?
[01:59] <tommy_> it gave me an option for 1024 x 768 in the screen res config
[01:59] <Ben64> Guest729: link what two together?
[01:59] <Jyxt> Guest729: you need to setup port forwarding in your router then
[01:59] <tommy_> but when I clicked it and hit apply nothing changed
[01:59] <Guest729> i dont no how to do that but, people have said port forward, but i dont no how to
[01:59] <MsMaco> tommy_: that was the point :)
[01:59] <tommy_> lol
[01:59] <MsMaco> tommy_: aww
[01:59] <tommy_> we're moving in the right direction
[01:59] <d1gital> Guest729:you need to forward port 80 to that 192.x.x.x address.
[01:59] <Jyxt> Guest729: and thats dependnat on your router...which is?
[01:59] <dtcrshr> well, opera is now working, i got sound on youtube, but firefox dont.
[01:59] <Guest729> my router is a netgear
[01:59] <MsMaco> tommy_: if you do the "xrandr --mode 1024x768_60.00" does it give any errors?
[01:59] <dtcrshr> how do i use the same plugin of flash on opera to firefox?
[01:59] <Guest729> i dont no how to port forward
[02:00] <Guest729> could somebody help me with this
[02:00] <Guest729> ?
[02:00] <MsMaco> tommy_: thats the command line equivalent to the screen config gui
[02:00] <Jyxt> Guest729: what kind of router do you have
[02:00] <Ben64> Guest729: why run a server and cpanel on a home based server?
[02:00] <MsMaco> Ben64: development?
[02:00] <d1gital> nmvictor: yes i am using 9.04  however i am trying to install Exaile media player.. not wine.
[02:00] <tommy_> no it gives me ntohing but a > on the next line down
[02:00] <Guest729> because its got to run a few websites
[02:00] <Guest729> and i like cpanel
[02:00] <Jyxt> Guest729: see this link
[02:00] <Jyxt> http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/N101145.asp
[02:00] <tommy_> like it's waiting for more input
[02:00] <Guest729> i have a netgear @ Jyxt
[02:00] <Guest729> yep
[02:00] <Ben64> Guest729: but i doubt your connection would be fast enough to support much more than a small website
[02:01] <Jyxt> once there just click the link for your specific model...then follow directions
[02:01] <mdg> d1gital: how did you install exaile?
[02:01] <Guest729> really
[02:01] <Guest729> seems fast to me
[02:01] <tommy_> msmaco: all it did was give me a > prompt on the next line down
[02:01] <MsMaco> tommy_: maybe if you say: xrandr --output default --mode 1024x768_60.00
[02:01] <Guest729> i have a 100mbps
[02:01] <d1gital> mdg: sudo apt-get install exaile
[02:01] <Ben64> Guest729: somehow i doubt that
[02:02] <Guest729> thats the plan i took out
[02:02] <GianMar> notte a tutti
[02:02] <mdg> d1gital: is this a fresh install - have you updated and added Medibuntu repos?
[02:02] <nmvictor> d1gital: exaile media player is what i mean, sorry about the wine, have been having issues with it so i probably just came as i was typing.reinstall exaile or start it from terminal with exaile command so you can see any errors
[02:02] <tommy_> msmaco: xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed
[02:02] <d1gital> Guest729:  damn. my company's web server isnt even on 100mbps... i have my doubts.
[02:03] <Lunixed> Just now i rebooted into Ubuntu 9.04 and its x server does not start
[02:03] <Lunixed> What to do ?
[02:03] <MsMaco> tommy_: oh boo. :( lets try going to #ubuntu-x
[02:03] <wookienz> hi, have a SATA HDD plugged into a PCI raid card. The raid card has two dirves plugged into it. One drive is being recognized, the other is not. Nothing on fdisk -l. It is possibkle the drive is faulty since i took it out of a RAID 5 array as it failed. Just trying to see if it is the drive or the sensititive raid array.
[02:03] <Guest729> 1 sec
[02:03] <Lunixed> some applet error it shows if i do startx
[02:03] <MsMaco> tommy_: theyre the graphics driver guys
[02:03] <tommy_> be right there
[02:03] <JanC> I think the "easiest" way to solve problems with resolutions not being recognized is still adding a modeline in xorg.conf ツ
[02:03] <Guest729> so
[02:03] <d1gital> mdg: fresh install. i have not added those repos.. i'll look into that.
[02:03] <Guest729> i have 50mbps
[02:03] <nejode> Guest729: http://portforward.com/
[02:03] <Guest729> would this not be fast enough
[02:04] <mdg> d1gital: probably best to let it get all its updates  - 200+
[02:04] <Jyxt> Guest729: see this link and follow directions
[02:04] <Jyxt> http://kbserver.netgear.com/kb_web_files/N101145.asp
[02:04] <kermit> how do i make compiz start automaticly when i boot?
[02:04] <tommy_> it's emptt
[02:04] <tommy_> empty
[02:04] <nmvictor> kermit: add it  to sessions
[02:04] <Lunixed> Just now i rebooted into Ubuntu 9.04 and its x server does not start , when i do commandline login and do startx i get some applet error...What to do to get a normal login..Is it the problem with xserver ?
[02:04] <Guest729> Jyxt ive tryed those links, but, i cant even get into the router ive tryed both passwords it just wont let me in
[02:05] <Guest729> what would i do now?
[02:05] <edbian> kermit: PM me
[02:05] <d1gital> mdg: why does it require a separate repo, though? i would think that the ubuntu repos should have a working deb.. adding anyway.
[02:05] <Ben64> d1gital: licensing issues and stuff
[02:05] <nmvictor> kermit: sorry, to Admin>Services
[02:06] <Lunixed> someone help me..
[02:06] <Lunixed> Just now i rebooted into Ubuntu 9.04 and its x server does not start , when i do commandline login and do startx i get some applet error...What to do to get a normal login..Is it the problem with xserver ?
[02:06] <d1gital> Ben64: oh i see, kinda like the whole Iceweasel thing. that drove me crazy when i first installed debian.
[02:06] <mdg> Lunixed: how long you been running 9.04 on this computer
[02:06] <Lunixed> 10 days
[02:06] <Lunixed> mdg
[02:06] <Ben64> d1gital: yeah kinda
[02:06] <Ben64> but it's easy enough to add medibuntu
[02:07] <Ben64> and sooo worth it
[02:07] <Guest729> anybody no what i can do?
[02:07] <Guest729> ive tryed both passwords none work
[02:07] <Lunixed> It was workign perfecly fine till before 30 mins mdg
[02:07] <Ben64> Guest729: reset router
[02:07] <wildnfree> Lunixed: what did you do before re-booting?
[02:07] <Guest729> and that will work fine?
[02:07] <nmvictor> kermit: i think System>Preference>Sessions  is more editable
[02:07] <Lunixed> nothing..was doing my project in Netbeans
[02:07] <Ben64> it will set everything back to default
[02:07] <Ben64> including passwords
[02:07] <Guest729> ok
[02:07] <Guest729> thanx
[02:07] <mdg> I think there should be an option when you boot to chose the last good configuration...
[02:07] <kermit> nmvictor: i dont have 'sessions'
[02:07] <eggy> hey - I'm tryen to dual boot between Ubuntu 9.04 and Windows 7; I've got two sata drives, I installed Ubuntu on the primary, then I powered down and setup the secondary disk as a primary installed windows on it - all seems well, but Grub is NOT picking up sdb (hd1,0) device.map shows it though.. Any ideas?
[02:08] <wildnfree> Lunixed: Why did you reboot?
[02:08] <MsMaco> wildnfree: hello :)
[02:08] <Lunixed> To test the program in windows
[02:08] <wildnfree> MsMaco: Hi there!
[02:08] <nmvictor> kermit: whats your system, ubuntu jaunty or intrepid?
[02:08] <kermit> nmvictor: jaunty
[02:08] <Lunixed> Is there any way to get the last known good configuration
[02:08] <Lunixed> ?
[02:08] <eggy> Also, I run grub as root, in Ubuntu it picks up hd1, but not when I boot up :s
[02:08] <Um_cara_qualquer> excuse me... does someone know how to start the installer of the cd rom from ubuntu 8.10 instead open it?
[02:08] <Hilikus> hey guys
[02:09] <wildnfree> Lunixed: What configuration did you do in your last session in Ubuntu 9.04?
[02:09] <bruce89> kermit: it's session preferences now
[02:09] <mdg> Um_cara_qualquer: the live CD?
[02:09] <Hilikus> i updated my kernel today to 2.6.28-15 and my nvidia restricted driver stopped working
[02:09] <nmvictor> kermit  System>Preference>Sessions should be available. The main menu
[02:09] <Lunixed> nothing much...installed lamp-server
[02:09] <Um_cara_qualquer> yes
[02:09] <edbian> It's "Start-Up apps" now
[02:09] <d1gital> mdg: i added that repo, did apt-get update; apt-get upgrade and didnt get any updates.. am i missing something here?
[02:09] <bruce89> kermit: Oops, I meant startup applications
[02:10] <kermit> my rc.local isnt getting run, it's in the etc/rc.d .. i dont understand why
[02:10] <Guest59384> can we watch a movie here on this ubuntu os?
[02:10] <Lunixed> mdg : installed lamp-server only
[02:10] <Ben64> Hilikus: you need to update nvidia with kernel
[02:10] <mdg> d1gital: did you get the medibuntu key?
[02:10] <d1gital> mdg: yes
[02:10] <Hilikus> Ben64: ok and how do i do that?
[02:11] <nmvictor> install vlc, mplayer gxine or codecs for totem and you wont have to ask that
[02:11] <kavurt> !compiz
[02:11] <Ben64> Hilikus: how did you do it last time
[02:11] <Lunixed> can i have my last known good configuration in ubuntu 9.04 ?
[02:11] <Guest198> hi, i just reset my router, neither passwords (password , or 1234 work)
[02:11] <Guest198> no what do i do
[02:11] <Guest198> ?
[02:11] <Hilikus> Ben64: iirc last kernel update it just worked
[02:11] <tommy_> ok even though I set the res at the new option of 1024x768 in the gui menu, it did nothing, and xrandr still says I'm running at 800x699
[02:11] <mdg> d1gital: there should be a log file in the update program to tell you what was updated and when
[02:11] <edbian> Lunixed: You need to edit the file that stores what applets you have loaded.
[02:11] <tommy_> 600*
[02:11] <Ben64> Hilikus: i mean, how did you install nvidia
[02:11] <edbian> Lunixed: PM me :)
[02:12] <Ben64> Hilikus: if you did it through synaptic, it should have done it all for you
[02:12] <nmvictor> eggy: did someone help you dual boot issues?
[02:12] <tommy_> Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 800 x 600, maximum 1024 x 768
[02:12] <Ben64> Hilikus: if you installed it yourself from the file at nvidia.com, you will need to do that again
[02:12] <tommy_> it's an option now, I just don't know how to switch to it
[02:12] <Hilikus> no, i didn't install it manually. it was from the repo
[02:12] <Guest198> hi, i just reset my router, neither passwords (password , or 1234 work)
[02:12] <Ben64> tommy_: try CTRL+ALT+-
[02:12] <Guest198> wat now
[02:12] <Ben64> tommy_: on the numpad
[02:12] <Guest198> ?
[02:12] <wildnfree> Lunixed: With the amount of information you are able to supply me, I can only recommend 2 options: First is to undo any changes you made in your last session, The second is to back-up all your data (probably not much in 10 days) and re-install Ubuntu 9.04 - then keep a good record in future of any configuration changes you do.
[02:13] <tommy_> it's a laptop there's no num pad lol
[02:13] <d1gital> mike@vera:~$ sudo cat /var/log/apt/term.log | grep exa
[02:13] <d1gital> Selecting previously deselected package exaile.
[02:13] <d1gital> Unpacking exaile (from .../exaile_0.2.14-0ubuntu2_amd64.deb) ...
[02:13] <d1gital> Setting up exaile (0.2.14-0ubuntu2) ...
[02:13] <FloodBot3> d1gital: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:13] <Ben64> yes there is, use function keys or whatever
[02:13] <wildnfree> whoops! I didn't get that reply to Lunixed quite in time. :-(
[02:14] <tommy_> i cycled through it a few times
[02:14] <tommy_> nothing bigger than what I've got now though
[02:14] <Ben64> tommy_: it went smaller though?
[02:14] <tommy_> yep
[02:14] <Ben64> hmm
[02:14] <edbian> wildnfree: I pm'd him
[02:14] <nmvictor> eggy: http:pastebin/f3ff536cf
[02:15] <tommy_> should I see what it does if I connect an external monitor?
[02:15] <d1gital> i think i'm going back to commandline mplayer. never gave me any problems. exaile wont run and rhythmbox just sucks.
[02:15] <wildnfree> edbian: thanks - I can't type fast enough for some ;-)
[02:15] <mdg> d1gital: have you tried moc?
[02:15] <Lunixed> Ahh.....someone told me to pm on the main chat....Please I forgot your nick...Sorry tell me again :)
[02:16] <edbian> where is the file that holds the data for what applets are in the panel?
[02:16] <edbian> .gnome2?
[02:16] <d1gital> mdg: i have not
[02:16] <MsMaco> tommy_: external may require booting with it plugged in
[02:16] <tommy_> i'm so lost
[02:16] <Lunixed> edbian, you right?
[02:16] <mdg> moc= music on console
[02:16] <tommy_> yeah I think it does for this model
[02:16] <nmvictor> d1gital: too bad, more info on what you've tried so far might help
[02:16] <Dr_Willis> edbian:  some file in .gnome2 or .gconf* i imagine
[02:16] <mdg> d1gital: starts by typing mocp
[02:16] <MsMaco> edbian: you can remove applets through gconf-editor
[02:16] <edbian> MsMaco: He doesn't have GUI
[02:16] <tommy_> and it would require me putting my battery in which I'm entirely too lazy to do
[02:16] <MsMaco> edbian: oh
[02:17] <MsMaco> edbian: ok then ... well theres a cli version... gconf-tool i think
[02:17] <d1gital> mdg: hmm perhaps this will help diagnosing all media players on my system.. mocp tells me i have no valid sound driver
[02:17] <bruce89> gconftool-2
[02:17] <MsMaco> d1gital: lsmod | grep snd
[02:17] <mdg> d1gital: hmm.....
[02:17] <MsMaco> d1gital: any output? or just takes you backto a prompt?
[02:17] <mdg> d1gital: you using pulseaudio or someting else?
[02:18] <FirstSgt> i tried to install apache2 via the Synaptic Package Manager, it seems like it worked, but the entire /etc/apache2/httpd.conf is blank.  What happened?
[02:18] <d1gital> MsMaco: 16 lines of output..
[02:18] <MsMaco> d1gital: then youve got sound drivers
[02:18] <d1gital> mdg: pulseaudio
[02:18] <danbhfive> FirstSgt: fyi: mine is empty too
[02:18] <tommy_> this is getting obnoxious
[02:18] <mdg> d1gital: I don't think moc can use pulse audio
[02:18] <MsMaco> d1gital: if you try "paplay" and then a music file name...hear anythig?
[02:18] <tommy_> if it's an option why can't I switch to it now?
[02:19] <FirstSgt> danbhfive: at least I know im not alone.  first time i've installed apache with a blank conf :)
[02:19] <d1gital> mdg: come to think of it, i dont think sound was working on youtube earlier either
[02:19] <t0mm0> Gaah! whats the ubuntu canada room name...
[02:19] <Dr_Willis> !ca
[02:19] <tommy_> does the fact that it lists my refresh rate for 1028x768 at 59.9??
[02:19] <tommy_> it's 60 for all the rest
[02:19] <t0mm0> Thanks Ubottu
[02:19] <MsMaco> tommy_: i dont think so...
[02:20] <funkja> Is it true that when running gnome, xorg.conf is not the only thing configuring my X server?
[02:20] <mdg> d1gital: if you doubleclick your sound icon on your panel bar, you can choose different options - have a look
[02:20] <mdg> d1gital: that's double left click
[02:20] <MsMaco> funkja: xorg.conf is completely unnecessary to get a working X server for all versions of X in the last yaer and a half
[02:20] <bruce89> funkja: hal does a fair bit
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> funkja:  thats not really 'gnome' related. :) the newest X org stuff also uses HAL to do some autoconfiguration
[02:20] <tommy_> I mean I was really surprised to turn this thing on and have everything working flawlessly, including the internal wifi
[02:20] <nmvictor> could someone be knowing where configuration files for vlc could be lying in my system?
[02:20] <EagleScreen> hello
[02:20] <Dr_Willis> funkja:  i can delete my xorg.conf and get a working system
[02:20] <tommy_> only thing thats really bugging me is the display
[02:20] <d1gital> mdg: 3 pulseaudio options, an OSS and an ALSA
[02:20] <funkja> Wonderful
[02:21] <MsMaco> d1gital: does sound work *at all*?
[02:21] <MsMaco> d1gital: like if you run "speaker-test" do you hear static?
[02:21] <superjoel> is there a way to get my sed output in an array?
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  try 'locate vlc | less'
[02:21] <y2kkmac> hello, everyone
[02:21] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  theren theres user configs that can override the system defaults
[02:21] <FirstSgt> ls
[02:21] <bruce89> nmvictor: dpkg -L vlc
[02:21] <MsMaco> superjoel: to use in a program? well youd want your program to parse the outpt and insert the stuff into an array
[02:21] <EagleScreen> anyone using Ubuntu here? please tell me if folder '/usr/lib/python' exist in jaunty
[02:21] <d1gital> MsMaco: system->preferences->sound->test works, but speaker-test gives alsa error,  unable to open slave
[02:22] <superjoel> MsMaco, kind of..
[02:22] <funkja> So, I have a laptop with a docking station and 2 external monitors. I have an intel based graphics card and am running the intel-pga driver. If the System->Prefs->Display won't make it work right, what should I use to hack it to work?
[02:22] <bp0> is there an installer for windows, like wubi, that will install ubuntu to its own partition like the cd installer?
[02:22] <Ben64> EagleScreen: i bet everyone is using ubuntu here
[02:22] <danbhfive> EagleScreen: not for me
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> d1gital:  no.. its all got pythion#.# for the version #'s
[02:22] <MsMaco> d1gital: "ps -ef | grep pulse" oes it say pulseaudio is running?
[02:22] <bruce89> Ben64: 'fraid not
[02:22] <Dr_Willis> oops that was for EagleScreen  :)
[02:22] <Um_cara_qualquer> folks, how can i start the installer of ubuntu 8.10 in the linux mint?
[02:23] <Dr_Willis> python2.4/      python2.6/      python-support/
[02:23] <Dr_Willis> Um_cara_qualquer:  Huh?
[02:23] <hackulator> has anyone else had problems getting their mic to work in ubuntu?  It "works", but I cannot get it to record anything above a barely audibly whisper, and yes I have adjusted the normal volume/sound settings
[02:23] <nmvictor>  bruce89:  Dr_Willis: thanks
[02:23] <MsMaco> Um_cara_qualquer: you want to run the installer...from an already installed system?
[02:23] <EagleScreen> thanks
[02:23] <Um_cara_qualquer> sorry about my english :P
[02:23] <Ben64> hackulator: you sure it's in "microphone" not "line-in" ?
[02:23] <Um_cara_qualquer> let me explain beter
[02:23] <mdg> Um_cara_qualquer: if you mean from live cd - click the installer icon on the desktop - there is no command line install option, except for ubuntu alternate install
[02:23] <superjoel> MsMaco, The thing is that there are spaces in the values that screws up my attempts on making an array
[02:23] <MsMaco> Um_cara_qualquer: its not the english...its the "doesnt sound possible"
[02:23] <tommy_> ok guys I give up for now, I'm gonna try they folks over at #ubuntu-x some other time when people are actually on there
[02:23] <tommy_> thanks for all your help though!
[02:23] <y2kkmac> Does anyone here have experience using ubuntu on a powerpc mac?
[02:23] <wildnfree> hackulator: Yes - same here. All bugs I found listed had been ignored
[02:24] <d1gital> MsMaco: ps -ef | grep pulse gives tons of info.. ps -A | grep pulse shows 2 pulseaudio processes.
[02:24] <Um_cara_qualquer> heh yeah yeah, but wait:
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> y2kkmac:  on my old imac-dv yes.. and the experience was 'bad' :)
[02:24] <mdg> y2kkmac: I do!
[02:24] <Dr_Willis> y2kkmac:  that  imac is now a doorstop.. :)
[02:24] <MsMaco> d1gital: one of em is like : maco      3536     1  0 12:07 ?        00:00:16 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start --log-target=syslog
[02:24] <MsMaco> d1gital: with your username and different pid?
[02:24] <y2kkmac> :(
[02:24] <hackulator> Ben64: I am relatively sure, and just i case I adjusted the line-in settings as well without and effect
[02:24] <wildnfree> hackulator: which Ubuntu are you using
[02:24] <mdg> y2kkmac: My G4 imac runs fine
[02:24] <y2kkmac> Dr_Willis: what about getting it to work from an external hard drive (firewire)?
[02:24] <Um_cara_qualquer> i have the ubuntu on a cd... and i'm running linux mint here... i want to install ubuntu... but when i click on the cd icon... it opens instead start the installer
[02:24] <hackulator> wildnfree: 9.04 32 bit
[02:24] <Ben64> hackulator: but using a mic on a line-in can do that
[02:25] <MsMaco> Um_cara_qualquer: boot from the cd
[02:25] <wildnfree> hackulator: I'm 9.04 64bit
[02:25] <Um_cara_qualquer> how?
[02:25] <bruce89> !booy
[02:25] <bruce89> !boot
[02:25] <MsMaco> Um_cara_qualquer: put it in the drive and reboot
[02:25] <Ben64> because mics and mic jacks are usually mono, while line-in is stereo. try plugging it into a different port
[02:25] <d1gital> MsMaco: mike      3696     1  0 Aug07 ?        00:25:23 /usr/bin/pulseaudio --start
[02:25] <mdg> Um_cara_qualquer: you have to boot the cd
[02:25] <Um_cara_qualquer> o_O could be that obvious?
[02:25] <y2kkmac> mdg: I'm using a 320 gig firewire drive installed from a powermac g5 and it works fine on every powerpc except for my imac g5
[02:25] <MsMaco> d1gital: ok yay
[02:25] <MsMaco> Um_cara_qualquer: you may have to do the "press F2 for setup" thing to tell it to use the CD drive...but yeah
[02:25] <hackulator> Ben64: I am relatively sure because of the big picture of the microphone next to the port I have it plugged in to....also, it always worked fine from there when I was using windows
[02:26] <Ben64> hackulator: oh
[02:26] <mdg> y2kkmac: do you have more than one firewire port ?
[02:26] <Um_cara_qualquer> haha
[02:26] <Um_cara_qualquer> thx
[02:26] <Um_cara_qualquer> :P
[02:26] <y2kkmac> mdg: I have two
[02:26] <mdg> Um_cara_qualquer: your welcome :)
[02:26] <mdg> y2kkmac: did you try them both?
[02:26] <Ben64> hackulator: you adjust recording volume and recording source?
[02:26] <funkja>  I have a laptop with a docking station and 2 external monitors. I have an intel based graphics card and am running the intel-pga driver. If the System->Prefs->Display won't make it work right, what should I use to hack it to work? Can I make the changes in my xorg and tell HAL to not do anything? Or is the better way to manually configure HAL in some way?
[02:26] <y2kkmac> no, I did not, good idea
[02:26] <hackulator> Ben64: yes
[02:26] <mdg> y2kkmac: plus do you clear pram first
[02:27] <Ben64> hackulator: volume control -> File -> Change Device -> Capture
[02:27] <Ben64> hackulator: right?
[02:27] <Dr_Willis> funkja:  theres also the special keys on the laptop to toggle external displays you may want to try
[02:27] <wildnfree> Ben64: I tried the mic port and it provides sound to my speakers but won't record regardless of which sound server I use.
[02:27] <MsMaco> funkja: with 9.04 my attempts at a secondary screen with desktop spread across on an intel graphics card were not possible due to limitations of the driver. in 9.10 it works
[02:27] <y2kkmac> mdg: that's the shut down, plug in the cable and press the power button at the same time, right?
[02:27] <d1gital> MsMaco:... what does this mean?
[02:27] <MsMaco> funkja: cloning the display is possible, but not using both to show different things
[02:27] <mdg> y2kkmac: no
[02:28] <funkja> MsMaco: is there a way to use the updated driver in 9.04?
[02:28] <MsMaco> d1gital: it means pulseaudio is running. if you try "paplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav" does it do anything?
[02:28] <nmvictor> bruce89: ok i just need the file on which i can revert vlcs interface to default from skin
[02:28] <y2kkmac> mdg: what is it?
[02:28] <Hilikus> i updated my kernel today to 2.6.28-15 and my nvidia restricted driver stopped working
[02:28] <MsMaco> funkja: its more than just the X stuff thats updated...its the kernel modesetting stuff too
[02:28] <d1gital> MsMaco: it works.
[02:28] <bruce89> nmvictor: I'd have thought something in home would be where that is set
[02:28] <Hilikus> anyone else have had this happen?
[02:28] <hackulator> Ben64: not sure which menu you mean there is no "file" on my volume control panel
[02:28] <MsMaco> d1gital: ok then pulseaudio's ok
[02:28] <funkja> MsMaco: Right.
[02:29] <bruce89> nmvictor: something like ~/.vlc or whatever
[02:29] <mdg> y2kkmac: was looking to verify - you hold down the Ctrl + Alt + R I think and it makes that chime
[02:29] <Ben64> hackulator: double click the volume icon on the panel
[02:29] <MsMaco> funkja: maybe try 9.10 from livecd and see if that works for you?
[02:29] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  user settings are in some .vlc dur in the users home dir. NOT system wide settings
[02:29] <y2kkmac> mdg: okay, I'll try that
[02:29] <funkja> MsMaco: Okay
[02:29] <mdg> y2kkmac: let it do the chime 2 or 3 times before you continue on
[02:29] <funkja> MsMaco: Isn't it still in beta?
[02:29] <wookienz> when i hot swap the drives on my raid card  i am seeing the dmesg report that the link is up. Im not seeing the drive appear under fdik -l. Any ideas?
[02:29] <MsMaco> funkja: alpha 4
[02:29] <MsMaco> funkja: note im onlysaying to try the live cd.
[02:30] <evilbug> recommend a good command line web browser please.
[02:30] <oli1> lynx
[02:30] <bruce89> w3m
[02:30] <MsMaco> funkja: i have made no recommendations about installing. though it seems fairly stable to me. but then ive been using since alpha 1 and usually run alpha versions of ubuntu, so im used to it
[02:30] <hackulator> NBen64: I click the volume icon and then the "volume control" button, double clikcing my volume icon just mutes the sound
[02:30] <Dr_Willis> evilbug:  if you search the package manaer.. theres only like 3 or 4 of them. :)
[02:30] <nmvictor> Dr_Willis: so where exactly can i have innterface settings changed?and thanks bruce89
[02:30] <dtcrshr> how di i refresh my wireless connection via command line?
[02:30] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  I got a .vlc dir and a 'skins' dir in .vlc
[02:30] <mdg> y2kkmac: its command, option , P and R keys = hold down all at the same time
[02:31] <evilbug> Dr_Willis: i was looking through them but wasn't sure which would be better.
[02:31] <wookienz> dtcrshr: iwconfig then wloan0 up or down.
[02:31] <funkja> MsMaco: Okay
[02:31] <wookienz> wlan0
[02:31] <funkja> MsMaco: Thanks.
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  theres also a .config/vlc it seems with setting files. :)
[02:31] <Cosmic_Karma> how do i stop firefox from turning all gray?, is it firefox issue or ubuntu issue?
[02:31] <nmvictor>  Dr_Willis:  path to .vlc directory coz i have quite a number of them
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  locate vlc | less let  me find those...
[02:31] <wookienz> Cosmic_Karma: ubunutu
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  i have a .vlc dir in the users home dir.....
[02:31] <edbian> nmvictor: That is what a program does when it is non-responsive.  All programs have the ability to turn grey
[02:31] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  i also have a vlc dir in the users .config/vlc dir
[02:31] <d1gital> is it possible to run gnome and kde simultaneously... not because i want to/it would be useful.. but because i think I just did.
[02:32] <edbian> d1gital: It is not possible
[02:32] <Cosmic_Karma> wookienz, how do i turn it off?
[02:32] <hackulator> Ben64: I click the volume icon and then the "volume control" button, double clicking my volume icon just mutes the sound
[02:32] <Dr_Willis> nmvictor:  looks to me like thers a .config/vlc/vlcrc and vlc-qt-interface.conf file
[02:32] <edbian> d1gital: gnome and kde are both desktop environments.
[02:32] <wookienz> you cant, i think it is ubuntu saying - wait a sec im busy.
[02:32] <dtcrshr> thanks wonderful
[02:32] <wildnfree> Cosmic_Karma: What are you doing when firefox turns grey? It will turn grey with some videos whilst waiting for the download to work.
[02:32] <dtcrshr> wookienz:
[02:32] <funkja> !alpha
[02:32] <jrib> edbian: should be able to, no?
[02:32] <Dr_Willis> d1gital:  if youa re not carefull you can accidently run nautilus while in kde.. and have the gnome 'desktop'  running on top of the kde 'desktop' and get some confuseing things going on.
[02:33] <d1gital> edbian: i have a kde background, and a kde panel at the bottom, but metacity is still on my windows and i have a gnome-panel at the top.
[02:33] <Dr_Willis> d1gital:  nautilus also has a option to NOT take over the 'desktop'
[02:33] <nmvictor>  Dr_Willis: thanks, let me check and get back. edbian: i dont get you
[02:33] <tuxforce_> i guy
[02:33] <jrib> edbian: though what d1gital just said is different than what I had in mind...
[02:33] <Hilikus> how can i reinstall the nvidia driver?
[02:33] <jrib> Hilikus: /why/?
[02:33] <Dr_Willis> Running nautilus in kde, or konqueror in gnome can  be 'confuseing' :)
[02:33] <edbian> d1gital: Well I suppose it you can run programs from both at the same time...
[02:33] <y2kkmac> mdg: and then, do I just hold down option to choose the startup disk?
[02:33] <edbian> d1gital: It's sort of a grey area.  What is "gnome"
[02:34] <dtcrshr> wookienz: and how do i force the refresh on the network admin? via gui?
[02:34] <superjoel> At the end of this sed -n 's|<screen_name>\(.*\)</screen_name>|\1|p' I would like to add an new line.. but just adding \n at the end just makes it freak out.. please help :)
[02:34] <d1gital> edbian: i gu
[02:34] <Hilikus> jrib: it is not working after today's upgrade to 2.6.28-15
[02:34] <mdg> y2kkmac: I never booted from firewaire , but I would guess so...
[02:34] <Cosmic_Karma> im tryin to  do like 5 things at once, but earlier i just had multiple instances open and fell asleep
[02:34] <edbian> d1gital: ?
[02:34] <jrib> Hilikus: "not working"?
[02:34] <d1gital> edbian: i guess it's more of a theory question then.   all i did wa run plasma from within a gnome terminal
[02:34] <zvacet> d1gital : http://psychocats.s465.sureserver.com/ubuntu/kde
[02:34] <Hilikus> jrib: yes. it doesnt load. ubuntu reports that it couldnt load the module on bootup and i have to start in lowres mode
[02:34] <wookienz> dtcrshr: my limit of knowlege is via command line taking the conection up adn down using "iwconfig wlan0 down"
[02:34] <Cosmic_Karma> WHEN I GOT UP NO SCREEN SAVER AND IT WAS GOING GRAY AND THEN BACK WITHOUT ANY THING
[02:34] <Cosmic_Karma> soory
[02:35] <oshua86> guys when i try to play a DVD in ubuntu 9.04 it comes out all scramble. why is this happening?
[02:35] <jrib> Hilikus: thought dkms was supposed to handle all that... how did you install it?
[02:35] <edbian> d1gital: I guess that's as close as you're going to get to running both at once lol.  Look here to learn about all of the different components: http://xwinman.org/
[02:35] <dtcrshr> it didnt worked, i got this:
[02:35] <jrib> !dvd > oshua86
[02:35] <Hilikus> jrib: the driver? i don't know, i've been using it for a while. i don't remember. but it was probably the standard way. i didn't manually install it or anything
[02:35] <mdg> oshua86: make sure you have libdvdcss instaslled
[02:35] <mdg> instaslled/installed
[02:35] <dtcrshr> iwconfig: unknown command "down"
[02:35] <jrib> Hilikus: system -> administration -> hardware drivers let you remove and reinstall the driver?
[02:36] <kermit> weird my window manager dissapeared
[02:36] <wildnfree> Cosmic_Karma: It will be a page you were viewing.
[02:36] <mdg> kermit: what were you using?
[02:37] <mdg> hi Lunixed !
[02:37] <Lunixed> hi  mdg
[02:37] <wildnfree>  Cosmic_Karma: Kill all your open pages, and start up firefox clean.
[02:37] <Hilikus> jrib: "no proprietary drivers are in use in this system". i have 2 items in the list for nvidia but when i try to activate it it just doesn't do anything noticeable after i type my password. i already restarted and same thing
[02:37] <Lunixed> It was solved by just reinstalling gdm :)
[02:37] <Cosmic_Karma> what is the setting called in ubuntu to turn it off though, only did it since i ran all hardy updates
[02:37] <nmvictor> Dr_Willis: thanks, found a file vlcrc in .config/vlc  that might help. now i need to change interface from skin to something.could you please confirm with your ./config/vlc/vlcrc with grep. i need to edit the line intf=skin2
[02:37] <kermit> mdg: it must have happened when i ran compiz
[02:37] <kermit> mdg: i was using gnome
[02:37] <mdg> Lunixed: thats good news
[02:37] <Lunixed> edbian aolved it :)
[02:37] <Lunixed> yeah :)
[02:37] <wookienz> dtcrshr: what are your wlan deives?
[02:38] <wookienz> deivces
[02:38] <edbian> Thanks!
[02:38] <edbian> :)
[02:38] <Hilikus> jrib: both say this driver is not activated
[02:38] <jrib> Hilikus: purge the appropriate nvidia-glx* package in synaptic I guess.
[02:38] <mdg> kermit: are you all cli right now?
[02:38] <jrib> Hilikus: what version of ubuntu?
[02:38] <Hilikus> jrib: jaunty
[02:38] <kermit> mdg:  no no, i just mean my windows have no borders or anything to drag around or resive them with
[02:38] <edbian> kermit: "metacity --replace&"
[02:38] <kermit> my iwlagn is buggy, it often seems to lock up until i put my laptop on standby then back on
[02:38] <kermit> edbian: thanks!
[02:39] <edbian> kermit: NP
[02:39] <Cosmic_Karma> wildnfree, do u what is the setting called in ubuntu to turn it off though, only did it since i ran all hardy updates, i tried that before and it still does it
[02:39] <edbian> kermit: If it worked then they should return normally after you reboot
[02:39] <mdg> what option turns off  the borders like that?
[02:39] <dtcrshr> wookienz: i got an atheros ar242x
[02:40] <wildnfree>  Cosmic_Karma: What do you mean by "turn it off"? The grey screen just means it is waiting for something.
[02:40] <y2kkmac> mdg: still hasn't worked
[02:40] <wookienz> yeah but what does you wireless connection looklike? wlan0? wlan1? ie like eth0 eth1
[02:40] <dtcrshr> wookienz: wlan0
[02:40] <wookienz> ok well as far as i know iwconfig should work, it may be a sep package... try ifconfig wlan0 down
[02:40] <mdg> y2kkmac: you did say it was a PPC and you were trying to run PPC Ubuntu from the other drive right?
[02:41] <kermit> edbian: hmm it seems i cant get metacity running with compiz now.. before either both were running, or compiz at least had window management
[02:41] <y2kkmac> mdg: yes. I get to the first stage ubuntu bootstrap, and then it spits me back to the startup disk chooser
[02:41] <Hilikus> jrib: ok i removed them. should i reboot before reinstalling?
[02:41] <wookienz> dtcrshr: iwconfig by itself will shwo all the wireless connectiond
[02:41] <edbian> kermit: compiz should be calling metacity
[02:41] <mdg> y2kkmac: ... doing research... hold on...
[02:41] <edbian> kermit: They can run both at once
[02:41] <y2kkmac> sure
[02:41] <edbian> kermit: Do you have ccsm installed?
[02:41] <jrib> Hilikus: nope
[02:42] <kermit> i'm just runnig compiz at the command line, is there another way to start it or with options?  i sware that worked before though
[02:42] <kermit> edbian: a what?
[02:42] <dtcrshr> on iwconfig i got lo, eth0 and wlan0
[02:42] <shovon> My wireless usb adapter detects my network, but doesn't connect. Any help please?
[02:42] <edbian> compiz config settings manager
[02:42] <edbian> ccsm
[02:42] <edbian> :)
[02:42] <Hilikus> jrib: so i just reinstall the same packages i removed or there's another way to install the restricted driver?
[02:42] <kermit> edbian: yes
[02:42] <dtcrshr> on wlan0 it sais ieee 802.11g, essid: off/any/ mode:managed
[02:42] <wildnfree>  Cosmic_Karma: It is related to something you have been browsing which is doing some heavy file transfer over the internet and is waiting for a response. You could try upgrading to another version of firefox.
[02:42] <edbian> kermit: Look at the "window borders" plugin
[02:42] <jrib> Hilikus: use Hardware Drivers
[02:42] <mdg> y2kkmac: from what I'm seeing, hold the option key and if there is a bootable partition it should show up
[02:43] <Cosmic_Karma> wildnfree, wookienz said it was a ubunut setting and it never did it until recent updates,i'm sure theres gotta be a way to trun it off right, just very annoying
[02:43] <shovon> my wireless adapter can see my network, but can't connect, did anyone have this problem before?
[02:43] <kermit> edbian: i dont see that plugin
[02:43] <Cosmic_Karma> wildnfree, ok will try that then tahnks
[02:43] <myself> has anyone gotten pcsx2 (ps2 emulator) to work in linux? i need help w/ figuring out how to install it and what dependencies i need
[02:43] <edbian> kermit: Should be in there...
[02:43] <a94060> shovon, i got the same problem
[02:43] <edbian> I'm not sure?
[02:43] <wildnfree>  Cosmic_Karma: It is a script running from something you have been browsing.
[02:43] <kermit> edbian: window decoration?
[02:43] <dtcrshr> shovon: im on the same issue
[02:44] <y2kkmac> mdg: I do that and a disk with a little picture of Tux shows up. I select that, and it goes into the first stage ubuntu bootstrap
[02:44] <kermit> edbian: window decoration did it, thanks again!
[02:44] <a94060> I am actually running 9.04 eeebuntu. I have installed drivers,using wicd because gnome doesnt work
[02:44] <edbian> kermit: NP

[02:44] <edbian> That's the one
[02:44] <dtcrshr> on this machine im talking on irc im on the wireless network.. cant see why i cant find the networks on ubuntu
[02:44] <nmvictor>  kermit: try installing sccm(simple compiz configuration manager)  or compiz configuration settings manger(ccsm) just sudo apt-get install ccsm or sudo apt-get install sccm

[02:47] <y2kkmac> mdg: what does that do?
[02:47] <jrib> Hilikus: yeah, I've actually seen that as the reason dkms fails in the past.  Maybe make sure you have the metapackage for linux-headers installed

[02:47] <alexnet> MsMaco, cool, mucher easier to ready, thanks.

[02:49] <Dr_Willis> pastebinit  lsbytesum
[02:49] <alexnet> So if I wanted to issue a recursive chown starting in the directory my prompt currently displays and applying ownership to all its permissions... will this work?  me@mybox:~/somefolder$ sudo chown -R me:somegroup .*

[02:56] <drcheezenstein> I think the problem is that the bios isnt recongizing the hard drive but the cd lets it boot up
[02:56] <prince_jammys> dsdeiz: so, yeah -sh
[02:56] <MsMaco> wildnfree: by the way, karmic stuff *should* be in #ubuntu+1 so if you see people asking about it, send 'em there
[02:56] <MsMaco> drcheezenstein: thatd be problematic, yeah

[02:57] <Jimmio> Hello everyone! I just installed 9.10 A4, and other than a few minor annoyances, is it okay to use as a main OS? I mean, PulseAudio crashed once... and the keyring is a little annoying, but otherwise everything works.
[02:57] <dsdeiz> i'ma store this.. thanks
[02:57] <mdg> FloridaGuy: what kind of printer?
[02:57] <MsMaco> drcheezenstein: bios update?
[02:57] <Dr_Willis> dsdeiz:  i use that as part of my prompt. Got it from the bash prompt howto i think
[02:57] <MsMaco> Jimmio: #ubuntu+1
[02:58] <prince_jammys> a94060: :)
[02:58] <drcheezenstein> msMaco: How doI go about doing that?

[02:58] <FloridaGuy> mdg, canon pixma ip2600
[02:58] <MsMaco> Jimmio: well... my main issues seem to be fixed in the most recent kernel
[02:58] <a94060> drcheezenstein, usually when you go into bios, it will list the hard drives. Check if your hard drive is detected. If it is,that means something is wrong with bootloader
[02:58] <spo> when i firest installed or used "screeN' it entered a graphical setting setup whereas i could setup things like making screen run by default when someone logs in... how do i access that setup menu?
[02:58] <mdg> FloridaGuy: oh, no experience with canon
[02:58] <sn0n> anyone on the latest 9.10 (guessing stupid question)?
[02:58] <drcheezenstein> ok after I finish this upgrade im going to check my bios
[02:58] <dtcrshr> wookienz: i did iwlist wlan0 scan, got no results. but on ifconfig and iwconfig my wlan0 is there
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> spo:  that setup suprised me also.. thats some ubuntu specific addon. :)  It may be mentioned at the ubuntu screen wiki page.
[02:59] <Dr_Willis> !screen
[02:59] <MsMaco> a94060: he just said his bios doesnt show the hard drive
[02:59] <mdg> Dr_Willis: I love screen!
[02:59] <wookienz> dtcrshr: i have reached the level of knowloedge, i dont have it installed presently and remembering from a few years agao in my bad war driving days!
[02:59] <a94060> MsMaco, oops,i must have missed that comment
[02:59] <sn0n> can someone with firefox open, in the US, confirm their spellcheck for me? mine was EN_AU, as opposed to EN_US...
[03:00] <drcheezenstein> a94060: Its not in the boot order
[03:00] <FloridaGuy> mdg, $30 printer...prints photo's just as good as if they were developed from the photo store
[03:00] <dtcrshr> oh ok
[03:00] <drcheezenstein> just usb harddrive dvd drive etc.
[03:00] <sn0n> just wondering if i should submit a bug
[03:00] <swapy> guys in ubuntu 64 bit do 32 bit softwares work?
[03:00] <a94060> drcheezenstein, is it an scsi drive or something hooked up aside from ide/sata?
[03:00] <mdg> FloridaGuy: nice!!!
[03:00] <biovore> sn0n: its only a bug of opinon
[03:01] <drcheezenstein> a94060: not sure what kind of drive it is its a laptop harddrive if that helps at all
[03:01] <dtcrshr> hi everyone, i got an issue with wireless on my ubuntu hardy 8.04 lts. I have wlan0 both on iwconfig and ifconfig, but i cant see any networks, with iwlist wlan0 scan. how do i check if theres something wrong? im actually on irc with the wireless connection on other pc.
[03:01] <Dr_Willis> swapy:  it can
[03:01] <FirstSgt> anyone know how to get apache to ignore the uri query string and just serve the file as asked?
[03:01] <mdg> sn0n: where do I find specll check in firefox?
[03:01] <sn0n> ... when i select US during installer and it selects EN_AU for firefox, i'd say its a bug....
[03:01] <a94060> drcheezenstein: im not sure then. You are able to boot it with the install cd though?
[03:01] <swapy> thanks
[03:01] <sn0n> mdg, in a textbox.. just right click.. its the bottom option..
[03:01] <a94060> drcheezenstein: are you sure its not just the live environment?
[03:01] <FloridaGuy> i think im going to add windows 7 beta2 to vbox
[03:01] <FirstSgt> e.g. http request for index.php?id=5 will actually look for the file index.php?id=5
[03:01] <spo> mdg, how do you access screen's menu setup?
[03:01] <MsMaco> !bug | sn0n
[03:02] <sn0n> MsMaco, please learn to READ..
[03:02] <drcheezenstein> a94060: No its not the live environment, its actually on the hard drive I goto boot from first harddrive and it boots up
[03:02] <mdg> spo: your talking the console application Screen right?
[03:02] <FirstSgt> i dont even know what to google for
[03:02] <FirstSgt> lol
[03:02] <drcheezenstein> a94060: I dont even have a live cd its a text based one
[03:02] <a94060> ohh ok drcheezenstein thats intresting.
[03:02] <a94060> drcheezenstein: im trying to think what else is could be...
[03:02] <MsMaco> sn0n: you said your spell check was not matching what you set as your location in installer and that you thought it was a bug. so i was saying to report it
[03:03] <sn0n> MsMaco, i was asking if someone else can confirm before i do.
[03:03] <Dr_Willis> spo:  thats not really a normal screen thing. thats somthing ubuntu added.  ubuntu wiki page on screen dont say.. may want to chedk the forums. Ill look into it tonight at work also. The screen wiki page is very out of date.
[03:03] <MsMaco> sn0n: im in the US and mine did en_GB instead of en_US by default
[03:03] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein:mind telling me some more info about your problem,kinda lost track
[03:04] <edbian> Is there anyway to repair a NTFS harddrive in linux?
[03:04] <MsMaco> sn0n: so im going with "yeah it picks the wrong one...but which one it picks is not consistent"
[03:04] <spo> mdg, yes
[03:04] <a94060> edbian: im only aware of chkdisk in windows
[03:04] <MsMaco> edbian: no
[03:04] <edbian> damnit
[03:04] <MsMaco> edbian: only windows can repair windows filesystems
[03:04] <sn0n> MsMaco, so its doing it for you also,... hmm.. ok, i'll search and see if a bug is already opened...
[03:04] <majuk> drcheezenstein: Dude, if the hard drive boots when you select it in the LiveCD and NOT when you boot normally, it's GOT to be a BIOS problem.
[03:05] <FirstSgt> anyone have suggestions for a google term to use? you know, a lmgtfy... anything would help :)
[03:05] <mdg> spo: I see Dr_Willis answered something for you to - I'm kinda outa the loop....
[03:05] <edbian> MsMaco: a94060: Thanks
[03:05] <drcheezenstein> nmvictor: my problem im discussing now is that I have to use the ubuntu text based installation cd to boot from my hard drive, the bio does not recongize it, this was my girlfriends laptop untill windows died on it so now the onlything I can get to work is linux
[03:05] <majuk> drcheezenstein: Blah, no, that's wrong, could still be a bad GRUB install.
[03:05] <drcheezenstein> majuk: I agree with you its a bios problem
[03:05] <a94060> i agree with majuk ,there is nothing else. The hard drive is obvioulsy being detected
[03:05] <a94060> try reinstalling grug drcheezenstein
[03:05] <majuk> drcheezenstein: But my BEST GUESS is BIOS
[03:05] <drcheezenstein> majuk: well this installation cd has worked on all my other computers
[03:05] <majuk> :)
[03:06] <majuk> drcheezenstein: Then it's probably BIOS. Get in there and find the boot order
[03:06] <a94060> drcheezenstein: what model laptop is it?
[03:06] <drcheezenstein> majuk: there was no non usb hardrive optin in the boot order unfortuantely
[03:06] <mdg> spo: can you restate your question?
[03:06] <drcheezenstein> a94060: Acer Aspire 3680
[03:06] <majuk> drcheezenstein: Yea, you say that, but I don't believe you.
[03:06] <kermit> when i push nfs writes over iwlagn it freezes up.. i lowered the wsize, maybe that'll help.
[03:07] <a94060> drcheezenstein: there is no cds in any drives or anything right?
[03:07] <kermit> (lots of nfs writing, like 400MB)
[03:07] <drcheezenstein> a94060: Ive tried it without the installtion cd the first time I installed it
[03:08] <a94060> drcheezenstein: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321626
[03:08] <spo> mdg, screen has a graphical console setup when you first run "screen" in ubuntu
[03:08] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein: how about upgrading Bios if you feel thats the problem though giving the exact message displayed on the screen when you boot without the CD will give us the proper playfield
[03:08] <drcheezenstein> a94060: after that it just said No operating system found
[03:08] <a94060> i know its a windows site,but look at the cause. the hard drive isnt corrupt,so it has to be mbr damaged
[03:08] <drcheezenstein> nmvictor: No Operating System Found
[03:08] <mdg> spo: I'm not sure I follow....
[03:09] <Bearshare> Howdy
[03:09] <a94060> drcheezenstein: im very sure that it is mbr which is damaged somehow

[03:10] <drcheezenstein> a94060: so reinstall grub?
[03:10] <majuk> drcheezenstein: a94060: I agree, although I'm still not convinced the BIOS isn't to blame.
[03:10] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein: whats the source of that message, if its GRUB then BIOS is good,and grub might also be good except fro some configurations or your partition table
[03:10] <a94060> sorry,did u say anything drcheezenstein ?
[03:10] <arquebus> heater: #eclipse  #qt
[03:11] <majuk> drcheezenstein: a94060: so reinstall grub?

[03:12] <Bearshare> but ok
 are you sure the card is detected
[03:12] <swapy> what is difference between x86       x64       and x86_x64 what it means
[03:12] <swapy> ?
[03:12] <heater> arquebus: there are channel dedicated?
[03:12] <ldlework> a94060, I can otherwise use the card no problem
[03:12] <arquebus> heater: Im refering to the freenode channels of #qt and #eclipse
[03:13] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein:try reinstalling grub or repairing it with instructions in the link i sent you.
[03:13] <swapy>  what is difference between x86       x64       and x86-x64 what it means
[03:13] <domino141>  i have a CD with photos and when i try opening a folder in it it tells me i don't have the permission to view the contents of that folder! help
[03:13] <a94060> ldlework: i dont know what to say then
[03:13] <majuk> swapy: x86_64 = x64
[03:13] <heater> arquebus: i realize that now, i just wasn't thinking lol, im an idiot, thanks!
[03:13] <a94060> ldlework: you do not see it shown in the top either right?
[03:14] <ldlework> a94060, its an open bug in Ubuntu

[03:14] <newser> do I need to have a static IP on my computer in order to access it from another network using remote desktop connection? Or is there any other choice?
[03:14] <drcheezenstein> nmvictor: could you send it one more time please?
[03:14] <mdg> spo: your .screenrc file holds all the setup settings for screen
[03:14] <pburleson> Says Hardy is unaffected, but a scan from McAfee still declares it as vunerable
[03:14] <ldlework> a94060, as in a bug which as yet to be resolved
[03:14] <a94060> ohh ok ldlework ,link to bug report?
[03:15] <swapy> majuk, then why they have mentioned x86 there too does it mean that we can install both 32bit or 34bit via that cd
[03:15] <newser> !spanich

[03:15] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein: http://pastebin.com/f4291a04a
[03:15] <newser> a94060, but If I do not have one, is there any other way I can access my computer?
[03:16] <majuk> swapy: No. It's just the naming convention they chose. x86 is 32 bit, x86_64, x64 or amd64 are all 64 bit.

[03:16] <sn0n> obicke, firefox is unstable as pie the last few releases, look for a new browser.
[03:16] <Cipher> !samba
[03:16] <edbian> a94060: You can do it via dhcp.  But your IP address will probably change so you'll have to keep checking what your IP is

[03:16] <nmvictor> drcheezenstein: i could take you through if you go thatway
[03:16] <a94060> newser: you may consider a service like no-ip.com which offers dynamic redirection. You get a hostname too

[03:18] <majuk> IdleOne: mkfs.fat32 /dev/XXXXX
[03:18] <newser> a94060, someone told me that it could be possible to use a program that would be checking an email account constantly and with a message it would email back the IP to a programmed email address. Do you think is it possible?

[03:19] <ldlework> IdleOne, never!
[03:19] <obicke> sn0n: right... but I need to test webdev in FF
[03:19] <a94060> newser: Im not sure of such a thing, but if you are looking for something like a static ip, a hostname would help more
[03:19] <sn0n> obicke, use Empiphany ;-)

[03:21] <majuk> ldlework: Well that's the wrong command. mkfs.fat32
[03:21] <newser> a94060, ok, well the thing is that I just want to access my home pc from somewhere else. Such computer connects via wireless, so I know it is hard to set it up. I have no knowledge on networking, so I just need to know if I can make it somehow
