[03:04] <jimmypw> Nick: ah that works http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28183/
[03:05] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: and you are getting the database locked error? could you paste that in pastebin too?
[03:06] <jimmypw> Nick: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28185/
[03:07] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: that is very odd.. have permissions changed?
[03:07] <noway_> my /boot is on /dev/sda1 ... but how do I tell what grub sees it as?
[03:07] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: do a "ls -l /etc/cache/* | grep apt" and tell me what you get
[03:07] <jimmypw> nope, ive been able to download anthing that i want up until now
[03:08] <Leonox> is there a way to create a grub cd from ubuntu live cd?
[03:08] <noway_> I am trying to repair grub on the mbr, but I don't know which hard drive grub sees
[03:09] <NickGarvey> noway_: it sees the one you tell it too see in menu.lst
[03:09] <jimmypw> Nick: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28187/
[03:09] <Leonox> i can't find /boot/grub directory in live cd
[03:10] <noway_> NickGarvey: well, I am trying reload grub, I know which hard drive it should see (/dev/sda1/) but not what this translate to in grub
[03:10] <jimmypw> not found
[03:10] <Alakazamz0r> fdisk -l
[03:10] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: hehe silly me
[03:10] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: "ls -l /var/cache/* | grep apt"
[03:10] <Leonox> NickGarvey: hi i have a problem with grub too, could you help me?
[03:11] <Chippy> can anyone help me mount a .mdf?
[03:11] <NickGarvey> Leonox: hehe I can try, what is not working?
[03:11] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: nothing :-(
[03:11] <Super> *** Help please *** I need the url of a package xserver-xorg-core but older version xserver-xorg-core=1:1.0.2-0ubuntu10
[03:11] <Leonox> NickGarvey: grub loading stage1.5 error 17 ubuntu
[03:11] <Alakazamz0r> dmesg |grep sd |more
[03:12] <diodorus> Has anyone experienced problems with the ubuntu installer for casper on the 6.06 TLS live cd?
[03:12] <jimmypw> Nick: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28188/
[03:12] <diodorus> problems specifically relating to filesystem errors when running the install process
[03:12] <Nicolae> question: SATA drives throw errors in kern.log.  Ratchets down to PIO0, continues until I dismount/remount it. Only h$
[03:12] <Nicolae> gah.
[03:12] <Nicolae> happens when I try to transfer more than 5 gigs or so. Getting annoying. Compiled 2.618-mm3, so at least it doesn't lock the system up, but makes the drive pretty much unusable until reboot.
[03:13] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: it doesn't really say in there either... do I need to mount it for it to come up on fdisk?
[03:13] <Chippy> can anyone help me mount a .mdf?
[03:13] <Alakazamz0r> noway_, dmesg is your system kernel messages
[03:14] <bianconeri> hello
[03:14] <NickGarvey> Leonox: I would google the error...
[03:14] <Alakazamz0r> if its not there... then it isnt recognizing it.
[03:14] <bianconeri> I have a problem with my update to edgy
[03:14] <Leonox> NickGarvey: ok
[03:14] <jimmypw> NickGarvey: *bump* http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28188/
[03:14] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: hm, actually just paste "ls -l /var/cache/*"
[03:14] <iamtheric> visualboy advance anyone?
[03:14] <Super> bianconeri: is that the X crash
[03:14] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: yeah, it didn't say what I wanted
[03:14] <bianconeri> no
[03:15] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: it says that it sees the attached scsi drive, but does not tell me what it translates to in grub
[03:15] <Cirvin_Fox> I have  2 soundcards on my system, and flash in firefox plays out of one, but i want it to play from the other. what must be done to redirect the sound to the 2nd card?
[03:15] <Super> what is the problem you are having with edgy?
[03:15] <bianconeri> well basically i updated, but in grub it doesnt show me the new kernel I have 2.6.15
[03:15] <iamtheric> !visualboyadvance
[03:15] <ubotu> visualboyadvance: a full featured Game Boy Advance emulator. In component universe, is extra. Version 1.7.2-4build1 (dapper), package size 793 kB, installed size 2684 kB
[03:15] <Super> yes i had that problem too
[03:15] <Super> do sudo update-grub
[03:15] <Alakazamz0r> noway_, are you using edgy?
[03:15] <jimmypw> NickGarvey: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28190/
[03:16] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: no, drapper
[03:16] <Alakazamz0r> you should be able to just add the line in fstab and it'll re-do it for you
[03:16] <bianconeri> other problems such I cant change the background only a brown background of the desktop...the bug tool keeps loading and can't be killed, I removed it
[03:16] <Alakazamz0r> what do you mean what it translates to?
[03:16] <bianconeri> I did grub update
[03:16] <superjew9020> does anyone no the command to activate xtrlock??
[03:16] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: grub has its own identifiers for hard drives right?  like /dev/sda1 -> hd0,4 or something
[03:17] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: hm, I'm not sure what the problem is
[03:17] <Alakazamz0r> no
[03:17] <Super> do you see the new kernel now?
[03:17] <Alakazamz0r> ./dev/sda1 /mnt/mountpoint filesystemtype options
[03:17] <diodorus> It starts up the partitioner. Recognizes the drive. Then it asks to either Erase the drive, use as much continuous free space as possible, or manually edit partitions. I choose the second option. 'Use the largest continuous free space'
[03:17] <bianconeri> no I see the old kernel only, although I am pretty sure others are there
[03:17] <Skip> just a word on new Edgy Eft - very nice OS
[03:18] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: I am following the guide here, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[03:18] <NickGarvey> Skip: :)
[03:18] <Super> if you go to /boot do you see the ne kernels there?
[03:18] <Super> i mean new kernels
[03:18] <fnf> Hi, does anyone have an idea of why after installing nfsclient my system automatically starts portmap process, even I told it not to in /etc/rc* ?.
[03:18] <bianconeri> yes there are many super
[03:18] <Cirvin_Fox> how do i intercept data being written to /dev/dsp and route it to /dev/dsp1?
[03:18] <Alakazamz0r> you need to be here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-778ecd20f83f92ebaa5aaec5f1b4615539c2f8d3
[03:18] <tgelter> hey guys, I'm having trouble getting X to start since upgrading to edgy...I get the following error when I try to start X: "X: warning; process set to priority -1 instead of requested priority 0"
[03:19] <music_man_nz> edit is opening my files as read-only even though they are CHMODed to 777. Any ideas?
[03:19] <bianconeri> I can see 2.6.17
[03:19] <music_man_nz> gedit*
[03:19] <Skip> bye
[03:19] <cliffd> when 6.10 comes out will it update ubuntu server also?
[03:19] <Alakazamz0r> oh you mean i grub
[03:19] <Alakazamz0r> not fstab.
[03:19] <Alakazamz0r> For example, /dev/hda1 is "hd0,0" to GRUB. Similarly, /dev/hdb3 is "hd1,2".
[03:19] <jimmypw> Nick garvey: i should have paid more attention i get this massive error when i do "sudo apt-get update" http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28191/
[03:19] <Super> both the 386 and generic?
[03:19] <megauei> hi, where can I find the firefox 2 installation process?
[03:19] <bianconeri> yup
[03:19] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: THERE WE GO
[03:19] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: the filesystem is mounted read only
[03:19] <superjew9020> does anyone no the command to activate xtrlock??
[03:19] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: so /dev/sda1 -> "hd0,?"
[03:19] <music_man_nz> any ideas?
[03:20] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: which means something broke really bad at some poin
[03:20] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: and you will want to reboot
[03:20] <Cirvin_Fox> how do i intercept data being written to /dev/dsp and route it to /dev/dsp1?
[03:20] <bianconeri> is there an option that lists only one kernel? maybe that option is turned on
[03:20] <iamtheric> how do i use the gameshark feature under visualboy advance?
[03:20] <Super> don't know ... do you get any error when you do sudo update-grub?
[03:20] <Alakazamz0r> 0,0
[03:20] <diodorus> This starts the guided partitioning process. And then begins creating the ext3 filesystem. Once it reaches 15% completion, it fails to install further.
[03:20] <diodorus> Any ideas?
[03:20] <jimmypw> Sry for wasting your time mate, thanks a lot
[03:20] <diodorus> The error is "Failed to create filesystem" But it doesn't say anything more specific than that.
[03:20] <noway_> Alakazamz0r: ok, thanks... I will give it a shot
[03:20] <music_man_nz> change to ext3
[03:20] <NickGarvey> jimmypw: haha its fine, I should have asked
[03:20] <music_man_nz> diodorus
[03:20] <Super> i do not think so, doing an update-grub will add/remove lines from /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:21] <bianconeri> no i dont....but when ubuntu boots (2.6.15, which is the only one listed) I get "loading kernel drivers" FAILED
[03:21] <music_man_nz> use Gparted
[03:21] <Alakazamz0r> ok noway_  :)
[03:21] <jimmypw> i feel like an utter muppet now. anyway bed time
[03:21] <eck0> hey
[03:21] <music_man_nz> Does anyone know why gEdit is opening my CHMODed 777 files as REad-Only!?!?
[03:21] <jimmypw> night all
[03:21] <Cirvin_Fox> how do i intercept data being written to /dev/dsp and route it to /dev/dsp1?
[03:21] <Super> probably the update "upgraded "
[03:21] <eck0> its chmod u+x
[03:21] <Nicolae> Another question: Can you force an SATA drive from PIO0 to UDMA?
[03:21] <Super> the modules of the kernel and they are not compatible anymore
[03:22] <megauei> hi, where can I find the firefox 2 installation process?
[03:22] <Alakazamz0r> megauei, http://www.mozilla.org/projects/bonecho/all-rc.html
[03:22] <Super> i removed my old kernel and now i am using the 2.6.17s
[03:22] <megauei> tnx
[03:22] <bimberi> music_man_nz: check the permissions of the directory that the files are in
[03:22] <bianconeri> For now I just need GRUB to list the newest kernel
[03:22] <eck0> does anyone else have trouble installing nvidia drivers
[03:22] <music_man_nz> bimberl: thanks
[03:22] <anto9us> diodorus, verify that drive parameters are correct or set to auto in the bios would be the first thing I'd check
[03:22] <Cirvin_Fox> how do i intercept data being written to /dev/dsp and route it to /dev/dsp1?
[03:23] <Nicolae> Can you use a symbolic link? ln -s /dev/dsp /dev/dsp1
[03:23] <Cirvin_Fox> will try
[03:23] <eck0> or does anyone know were i can get an installer for the nvidia card without using from thier site
[03:23] <bianconeri> Plus Nautilus is not loading:S
[03:23] <eck0> cuz the one on thier site is messed up
[03:23] <Super> then if you are sure, do # sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and copy the lines from the old kernel
[03:23] <diodorus> gparted gives the error" he kernel is unable to re-read the partitiontables on the following devices: /dev/sda "
[03:23] <Super> and update the numbers
[03:23] <music_man_nz> STill not going
[03:23] <Nicolae> Cirvin_Fox: you may have to use sudo to do it
[03:23] <music_man_nz> Directory is 777 and so are the files
[03:24] <diodorus> it then says "Because of this you iwll only have limited access to these devices. Unmount all mounted partitions on a device to get full access."
[03:24] <bianconeri> thats tricky business
[03:24] <anto9us> diodorus, have you checked the bios?
[03:24] <Super> but i really do not get it why the update-grub does not work
[03:24] <desi_> how to enable su
[03:24] <diodorus> anto9us, what for?
[03:24] <eck0> sudo
[03:24] <Super> wait a little if somebody knows more about this issue
[03:24] <eck0> sudo then command
[03:24] <eck0> and it will ask for ur admin pw
[03:24] <AdamKili> hey guys will Firefox automaticallay update or do i need to do it manually?
[03:24] <bianconeri> this ubuntu distibution is not the default
[03:25] <Super> bianconeri: can you check something for me
[03:25] <Flannel> !tell desi_ about sudo
[03:25] <anto9us> diodorus, that drive parameters are correct or set to auto
[03:25] <iamtheric> doesnt anyone use visualboyadvance?
[03:25] <bianconeri> could that have to do something with it?
[03:25] <Super> what version of xserver-xorg-core do you have installed?
[03:25] <eck0> me
[03:25] <Flannel> desi_: ubuntu uses sudo, not su.  The page ubotu sent you has information on how it all works, and why.
[03:25] <eck0> you need  cedega to  open it
[03:25] <Cirvin_Fox> negative, it wont allow me to make a symbolic link because /dev/dsp already exists
[03:25] <diodorus> anto9us, I'm trying to install ubuntu to an external usb harddrive.
[03:25] <moshe_> hello folks
[03:25] <Nicolae> Oh. /dev/dsp1 /dev/dsp then
[03:25] <Flannel> AdamKili: FFs updates will happen normally with all your other software updates, but not via FF itself
[03:25] <Super> i am running edgy too but X is driving me nuts
[03:25] <bianconeri> command?
[03:25] <moshe_> is firefox going to be updated to 2.0 in dapper?
[03:26] <moshe_> or has it already?
[03:26] <Flannel> moshe_: no.  And it wont be
[03:26] <bazz> i'm looking for a bittorrent client that supports rss (auto-download) and adding of new torrents/feeds over a web interface.  i know azureus can do this but i was wondering if there is anything with a slightly smaller footprint (ideally no gui as i'll never be looking at it)
[03:26] <bazz> ohh, and stats over a web interface would be nice too
[03:26] <anto9us> diodorus, ok, are you using the alternate cd? I think it needs that.
[03:26] <moshe_> just security fixes in 1.5?
[03:26] <Cirvin_Fox> that fails as well
[03:26] <Super> sudo dpkg -l xserver-xorg-core
[03:26] <Nicolae> no idea, then. sorry :/
[03:26] <Flannel> moshe_: or at least, not in the official repositories, there might be a FF2 deb on seveas' repostories, or otherwise.  Right, just security fixes.
[03:26] <sc0tt> bazz: there was a php script that did all that
[03:26] <sc0tt> i don't remember its name
[03:26] <cliffd> is there a certain reason to install or not install the X64 version? I have an Athlon64  cpu.
[03:26] <sc0tt> but it was _really_ nice
[03:27] <Super> probably 1.1.1-0ubuntu10
[03:27] <eck0> does anyone know the APt-get command to get nvidia drivers?
[03:27] <bazz> sc0tt: hrm, i'll google around a bit and see if i can find it
[03:27] <moshe_> I'm not liking edgy and I'm going to downgrade back to comfortable dapper.  That's why I'm asking.
[03:27] <sc0tt> eck0: I think you have to get them form their site
[03:27] <fatbrain> How do I replace firefox 1.5.xxx with new 2.0?
[03:27] <sc0tt> from*
[03:27] <Xenguy> moshe_: if there isn't a backport anytime soon, I'll be a monkey's uncle =)
[03:27] <moshe_> edgy is a little too.... edgy for me. :)
[03:27] <diodorus> anto9us, I don't know what the alternative cd is. The cd I have is the live cd for casper 6.06 TLS
[03:27] <eck0> that one doesnt work well
[03:27] <bazz> sc0tt: torrentflux by any chance?
[03:27] <jrib> fatbrain: edgy will have firefox2.0.  It will be released as stable in 2 days
[03:27] <Flannel> !Tell eck0 about nvidia
[03:28] <AdamKili> Flannel: ok i have no idea what FF updates are, but i'll check my Firefox version in a few days and if it's not 2 then i'll come back here
[03:28] <Flannel> AdamKili: It won't be 2.  At least, not in Dapper.
[03:28] <anto9us> diodorus, there's an alternate cd, I needed it to set up on raid, I imagine USB to be same issue
[03:28] <Xenguy> jrib: 2 days?! you are joking
[03:28] <sc0tt> bazz: sounded something like that
[03:28] <bazz> sc0tt: just found it, looks perfect, thanks much :)
[03:28] <sc0tt> no problem
[03:28] <sc0tt> :)
[03:28] <jrib> Xenguy: nope! :)
[03:28] <bianconeri> ii  xserver-xorg-c 1.1.1-0ubuntu1 X.Org X server -- core server
[03:29] <Xenguy> jrib: get outta here
[03:29] <Cirvin_Fox> perhaps there is a way to make /dev/dsp represent my second sound card?
[03:29] <Cirvin_Fox> or remove /dev/dsp
[03:29] <Super> bianconeri: thanks men
[03:29] <Super> *man, i have the same
[03:29] <Super> but i need to downgrade it
[03:29] <Nicolae> Cirvin_Fox: can you rm -f /dev/dsp1 and try to ln -s again?
[03:29] <diodorus> anto9us, ah. I see what you are saying. Yes, I'm aware of the modifications I need to make to certain files in order for ubuntu to recognize and support my usb device. It actually recognizes it right now, so it should be able to install to my external HD.
[03:29] <Cirvin_Fox> i dont want dsp1 to go away
[03:30] <bianconeri> So any ideas on my problem Super? Guys?
[03:30] <moshe_> hmmm
[03:30] <axisys> is there a ubuntu pkg for firefox 2.0?
[03:30] <Nicolae> remove /dev/dsp, then. Same way
[03:30] <Flannel> axisys: no
[03:30] <moshe_> why do firefox's fonts look different in gnome than they do in xfce?
[03:30] <moshe_> weird
[03:30] <Nicolae> then try to link it to /dev/dsp1
[03:30] <riddlebox> I installed the nvidia drivers and now my system is locking up?
[03:30] <Cirvin_Fox> ok, that may have done it
[03:30] <axisys> Flannel: thnx
[03:31] <moshe_> oh forget it.
[03:31] <moshe_> no big deal
[03:31] <Cirvin_Fox> verifying...
[03:31] <AdamKili> Flannel: y?
[03:32] <Super> what version of grub do you have? sudo dpkg -l grub
[03:32] <LinuxGuy2006> when edgy comes out how do I stop it from showing up in the updater and nagging me to upgrade?
[03:32] <Flannel> AdamKili: because each release is frozen at specific versions of things, they recieve nothing but bugfixes/etc during their lifetime
[03:32] <Arrick> Flannel, you got a minute for a pm?
[03:32] <Flannel> Arrick: sure
[03:32] <Cirvin_Fox> score!
[03:33] <Cirvin_Fox> worked perfectly, thanks for the help!
[03:33] <AdamKili> Flannel: and so the next release is Edgy? when's that's set to release?
[03:33] <Flannel> AdamKili: thursday
[03:33] <bianconeri> Super http://pastebin.ca/220161
[03:34] <Xenguy> jrib: sh*t you were serious :0
[03:34] <jrib> Xenguy: lol...
[03:34] <AdamKili> Flannel: whoa and does the update notifier pop up and it downloads it and i'm all set, or is it more complicated? (i've not been using linux more than 1 1/2 weeks)
[03:34] <Xenguy> jrib: somehow in my mind Edgy was just ... out there on the edge somewhere ;-)
[03:35] <Flannel> AdamKili: basically.  Although since youre upgrading from a LTS, I'm prtty sure it won't be nearly as prominent as Dappers was
[03:35] <LinuxGuy2006> when edgy comes out how do I stop it from showing up in the updater and nagging me to upgrade?
[03:35] <Flannel> LinuxGuy2006: that last comment is for you too.  I think once you dismiss the upgrade thing once, it'll stop.
[03:35] <LinuxGuy2006> oh ok
[03:35] <LinuxGuy2006> and when does FF2 come to dapper
[03:35] <Flannel> LinuxGuy2006: never
[03:35] <LinuxGuy2006> WHAT?
[03:36] <Xenguy> mwuhah
[03:36] <Homer> when is ubunti bambi fawm comming out
[03:36] <dabaR> it is stable, and no new apps come into it...
[03:36] <Super> bianconeri - that is what you get when you do the dpkg -l grub?
[03:36] <Homer> fawn
[03:36] <Flannel> LinuxGuy2006: never in an official repository, I'm sure there'll be unofficial debs of it places, seveas will probably have one
[03:36] <Arrick> have a grand night Flannel
[03:36] <dabaR> Homer: go read the ubuntu web site about releases
[03:36] <bianconeri> Super - Yes
[03:36] <AdamKili> Flannel: thank you
[03:36] <Flannel> LinuxGuy2006: version in all ubuntu releases are frozen, only bugfixes/etc after release
[03:36] <Super> hmm.
[03:36] <Super> things seem a little complicated
[03:37] <Super> it seems that your grub is a little messed up and that is not good
[03:37] <Super> because it is usually installed in the MBR of the hard drive and if things do not go well it can mess up a lot
[03:37] <Super> do you have a backup?
[03:37] <quib> hi i got a problem with sudo, if someone could help me :S
[03:37] <Super> just in case?
[03:38] <dabaR> what is the problem, quib
[03:38] <jingling> hello
[03:38] <bianconeri> backup of my system?
[03:38] <LinuxGuy2006> but FF1.5 is built into dapper, if you upgrade it wont that break it?
[03:38] <bianconeri> I could backup my home folder
[03:39] <quib> i just install ubuntu oem, and i create a new user after the instalation with the oem user, and I deleted the oem user after,   now my new user dont have sudo :S
[03:39] <Super> you have only linux?
[03:39] <bianconeri> yes three partitions
[03:39] <jstarcher> i DO
[03:40] <dabaR> quib: reboot, start in single user mode and run adduser <user> admin
[03:40] <Super> ok, just in case do a backup of the home somewhere
[03:40] <bianconeri> this one (dapper updated to edgy, edgy installed a month ago, and CentOS)
[03:40] <quib> ! cool thx :)
[03:40] <jstarcher> I have this thing that is running called java_vm and it's at 100% load all night.  What do I do? Nothing else is running and I don't know why that is!
[03:40] <dabaR> quib: maybe it is called safe mode, or something
[03:40] <Clinton__> What's a good CPU monitor for KDE's applet panel?
[03:41] <quib> yeah i have gone to recevory mode its root acess
[03:41] <Super> did you install centos later?
[03:41] <dabaR> recovery mode, right
[03:41] <Snake> What program can I use to make brocures?
[03:41] <SeanTater> I used <img>'s in <a href>'s, but I always get a blue box around it in firefox. How do I fix that?
[03:41] <ace> what is the name of the w32 font package?
[03:41] <quib> and will it do the system-edmin menu too? :S
[03:41] <Super> do not quote me on that but grub might be reading the kernel list from the centos partition
[03:41] <Clinton__> ace: msttcorefonts
[03:42] <Super> bianconeri?
[03:42] <quib> admin*
[03:42] <Snake> SeanTater: add border="0" in your img tag
[03:42] <bianconeri> in this order 1-This ubuntu (Dapper-->Edgy) 2-Centos 3-Edgy the 3rd is the default
[03:42] <SeanTater> Snake: Thanks!
[03:42] <Snake> SeanTater: np
[03:42] <Snake> What program can I use to make brocures?
[03:43] <Xenguy> jrib: I should have known there was a catch - can you say "Release Candidate" ?  :P
[03:43] <Super> do a backup of the home folder
[03:43] <Xenguy> Snake: scribus = DTP (desktop publishing)
[03:43] <jrib> Xenguy: well the release candidate was a few days ago, the actual final release is (afaik) still planned for the 26th
[03:43] <Snake> Xenguy: thanks :-)
[03:44] <dabaR> Snake: scribus I think.
[03:44] <Xenguy> Snake: yw
[03:44] <anto9us> Snake, openoffice.org writer or draw, inkscape, scribus
[03:44] <dabaR> Xenguy: ...
[03:44] <Xenguy> jrib: I'm reading this: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/EdgyReleaseCandidate
[03:44] <Lord_Rage> Can someone help me with a small Ubuntu problem?
[03:44] <xipietotec> aww.....tilda no longer works...
[03:45] <jrib> !helpme | Lord_Rage
[03:45] <Xenguy> dabaR: hi (your nick is familiar)
[03:45] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: state it
[03:45] <Nameeater> how can I change my default multimedia player?
[03:45] <ubotu> Lord_Rage: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:45] <bianconeri> ok
[03:45] <bianconeri> whats ur idea?
[03:45] <dabaR> Xenguy: i get around;) not really, I come here often though. You just answered Snake with the same program I was about to type.
[03:45] <Lord_Rage> Well, can I just extract the Ubuntu .iso, and install straight from the HD?  Or is that impossible?  My laptops CD drive is dead
[03:46] <anto9us> Nameeater, right click a media file, select properties, open with, and you can then choose your preferred application for that filetype
[03:46] <ricanelite> how can i replace the dapper with edgy, I remember typing something in my terminal and it open up a edit program and then i said replace dapper with edgy and select replace all and it did it for me
[03:46] <Super> once you are do do this#sudo grub-install /dev/XXX
[03:46] <Super> where XXX is you hard drive
[03:46] <dabaR> !upgrade
[03:46] <ubotu> Upgrading, please see the instructions on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:47] <Xenguy> dabaR: ah, gotcha
[03:47] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know the package I need to watch .WMVs on my computer?
[03:47] <Super> bianconeri: NOT your partition
[03:47] <Chad207> hey question - is the Edgy release candidate that's out right now gonna be much different than the one that's getting released on the 26th?
[03:47] <Super> carefull
[03:47] <eck0> hey how do i remove hardware
[03:47] <Xenguy> !codecs > SpudDogg
[03:47] <eck0> well uninstall it
[03:47] <eck0> it still shows that i got an ati card when i have a nvidia
[03:47] <dabaR> Chad207: no different in terms of app versions. only bug fixes are allowed now
[03:47] <DigitalNinja> chad207: Good question. I'm sucking down the ISO right now. Can't be that different but you never know
[03:48] <bianconeri> kinda stupid question but how would i know my hardrive from the partition?
[03:48] <slop|lap> if i plug a ps2 mouse into my laptop, how can i make it work without restarting?
[03:48] <Chad207> DigitalNinja: ya think it's safe to go ahead and upgrade from dpper permanently today?
[03:48] <DigitalNinja> bianconeri: No such thing as a supid question. Suped people are the ones who don't ask anything.
[03:49] <anto9us> bianconeri, the convention for is HD(letter)(number) where letter indicates drive and number is the partition on that drive
[03:49] <dabaR> bianconeri: what are you exactly asking, I do not think is clear
[03:49] <DigitalNinja> bianconeri: wup! put the "t" where needed
[03:49] <Super> the partition would have something like XXX1
[03:49] <Super> or XXX2
[03:49] <Nicolae> question: SATA drives throw errors in kern.log.  Ratchets down to PIO0, continues until I dismount/remount it. Only happens when I try to transfer more than 5 gigs or so. Getting annoying. Compiled 2.6.18-mm3, so at least it doesn't lock the system up, but makes the drive pretty much unusable until reboot.
[03:49] <iamtheric> !mednafen
[03:49] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mednafen - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:49] <Super> hda1 is the partition, hda is the drive
[03:49] <desi_> how do I find the hostname of my computer
[03:50] <ricanelite> can anyone help me out please
[03:50] <Super> uname -a
[03:50] <DigitalNinja> bianconeri: Is the drive EIDE or SATA
[03:50] <dabaR> desi_: hostname is the command
[03:50] <Super> desi_
[03:50] <dabaR> ricanelite: if you ask a question we will try
[03:50] <Super> DigitalNinja
[03:50] <bianconeri> Ok Ninja noted. Anto9us: I am replying to Super where he was saying use the whole drive not the partition
[03:50] <DigitalNinja> Super: Yup!
[03:50] <diodorus> nt
[03:51] <Super> have a look at bianconeri
[03:51] <Super> bicause it is a little complicated
[03:51] <bianconeri> DigitalNinja: Honestly I do  not know
[03:51] <Super> i think that the grub is reading the menu.lst from the other partition
[03:51] <Super> but i am not sure
[03:51] <bianconeri> but my drives begin with HDA not SDA
[03:51] <dabaR> ricanelite: you want to know how to upgrade? ubotu posted you a link to a web site with that info right after you asked.
[03:51] <Super> after the installation i do not want him to lose the entry of the centos
[03:52] <DigitalNinja> bianconeri: type the following: fdisk -l
[03:52] <ricanelite> okay, I will like to change dapper to edgy, now i remember opening up my terminal and typing in a command which open up a edit program which I could replace dapper to edgy and i selected replace all and thats i was done
[03:52] <dabaR> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EdgyUpgrades
[03:52] <Chad207> Question: if I install Edgy today, will I be able to upgrde to the actual release version when it comes out?
[03:52] <bianconeri> Oh and did i mention that Nautilus isnt launching also?:D ...will do DigitalNinja
[03:52] <Super> Hey people, did anybody downgrade Xserver-xorg in Edgy
[03:52] <DigitalNinja> bianconeri: If what you get back is "sd" something then they are SATA drives. If it sayas "hd" something it's EIDE
[03:52] <dabaR> ricanelite: see the link?
[03:53] <DigitalNinja> clear
[03:53] <gnomefreak> Super: edgy = #ubuntu+1
[03:53] <bianconeri> Ninja: Ok then its SATA
[03:53] <Super> gnomefreak: Niceeeee
[03:53] <Super> thanks men
[03:53] <anto9us> Chad207, that should be automatic, yes, you'll find there will be just a few package upgrades I suspect
[03:53] <bianconeri> Gnomefreak: So I am in the wrong channel?
[03:53] <dabaR> Chad207: off course
[03:54] <dabaR> bianconeri: to ask edgy questions that channel is still the right one
[03:54] <Chad207> anto9us: thanks
[03:54] <Borat> does anyone know how to get certain themes to do a 19pixel Gnome panel?
[03:54] <gnomefreak> bianconeri: all edgy related questions/support topics need to be in #ubuntu+1
[03:54] <Nicolae> Oops.
[03:54] <DigitalNinja> Super: Down grade?? Why would they want to do that?
[03:54] <iamtheric> know anygood emulators for gameboy that have gameshark capability?
[03:54] <Shadow_mil> how can I print the value of pi?
[03:54] <NickGarvey> Shadow_mil: in what?
[03:54] <Chad207> dabaR: everyone else is asking off-topic questions as well
[03:54] <oblib> Was there some update lately that enabled screen blanking? I can't get my computer to stop blanking the screen after a few minutes -- it didn't used to
[03:54] <Shadow_mil> NickGarvey: bash
[03:55] <Super> DigitalNinja: because the update crashed X http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240957
[03:55] <dabaR> Chad207: I don't care, I just provided him with the info
[03:55] <Borat> Only a few gnome themes support 19pixel gnome panels, how do you transform themes to do that?
[03:55] <oblib> I've disabled (and uninstalled) all screensavers, and even looked in gconf
[03:55] <NickGarvey> Shadow_mil: um.. "python" and the "import math" and then "print math.pi"
[03:55] <SpudDogg> !w32codecs

[03:55] <DigitalNinja> Super: What's this about crashing X? My X isn't working at the moment. Maybe that's my problem
[03:55] <Super> i am supposed to do apt-get install xserver-xorg-core=1:1.0.2-oubuntu10
[03:55] <lampshade> Anyone here happen to know how to edit the right click "Open With" menu?  I want to add an arg to an entry that already exists
[03:56] <Super> it is a problem with everybody
[03:56] <DigitalNinja> Super: What does that command do?
[03:56] <maxfla1> Now I have compiled the kernel.. is there anthing else I have to do acept adding it to the grub list?
[03:56] <Super> nothing it says that the package was not found
[03:56] <Super> probably my mirror has not the latest list
[03:56] <SpudDogg> I have installed w32codecs and followed the guide here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1649012    but for some reason I still cannot play WMVs  any ideas?
[03:56] <bianconeri> Ok guys this is my problem: I upgraded today from dapper to edgy. And these are the problems: 1-the new kernel does not appear in Grub 2-when loading (Loading Kernel Drivers)-->FAILED 3-Nautilus is not working 4-Continuous popping up of the bug tool (I uninstalled it) 5- the desktop seems non-responsive, no icons and can't change background its just a light brown solid background
[03:56] <ricanelite> i just went into Adept and change the distrobution to edgy and thats it so far it seems to be working
[03:56] <Shadow_mil> NickGarvey: what line though?
[03:56] <kk_pdx> what's a url for one of the sites where someone can cutpaste code or config snippets to share?
[03:56] <Super> vier
[03:56] <NickGarvey> Shadow_mil: (echo "import math" && echo "print math.pi") | python
[03:56] <bruenig> Super, try apt-get install xserver-xorg-core
[03:56] <NickGarvey> Shadow_mil: that command will do it
[03:56] <DigitalNinja> Super: What was the problem with the X server? I wonder if I have the same problem or version
[03:57] <noway_> I am trying to add my windows partition to the grub boot menu, and I am in menu.lst ... I know its /dev/sda2 but I dont know if its (hd1,0) or what
[03:57] <dabaR> lampshade: does not look like there is a way. Maybe somewhere in gconf, but it would likely be easier to just add a custom command to thwe open with menu
[03:57] <bruenig> noway, it would be hd0,1  assuming it is the second partition on your first hard drive
[03:57] <Super> DigitalNinja: no servers found -iget a: module abi major version (0) doesn't mach ...
[03:57] <SpudDogg> I have installed w32codecs and followed the guide here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1649012    but for some reason I still cannot play WMVs  any ideas?
[03:57] <noway_> bruenig, ahh ok, thank you
[03:58] <Chad293> daba: sorry, thought you meant "off course"
[03:58] <Super> for all the possble drivers, ati, vesa, radeon ...
[03:58] <Super> so basically i can not find the old package
[03:58] <snoops> SpudDogg the newer wmv's with DRM still can't be played I believe
[03:58] <DigitalNinja> Super: Are you upgrading X or down grading X?
[03:58] <dabaR> kk_pdx: paste.ubuntu-nl.org. is it in the topic?
[03:58] <blanny> can someone tell me what i should do when module-assistant does build the entire driver set?
[03:58] <Super> I upgraded it and now i want to downgrade to make it work again
[03:59] <DigitalNinja> I see
[03:59] <SpudDogg> snoops:  this is actually a home video, and I seriously doubt it has DRM.
[03:59] <Super> i will try the ubuntu+1
[03:59] <DigitalNinja> Super: What version do you have
[03:59] <blanny> im trying to get tiglusb from timodules-dev but module-assistant only wants to make tipar and not tiglusb
[03:59] <Super> probably somebody has a URL
[03:59] <snoops> ah, right.. what players have you tried SpudDogg?
[03:59] <Homer> cc  c
[03:59] <SpudDogg> just totem
[03:59] <bianconeri> anyone??
[03:59] <oblib> Was there some update lately that enabled screen blanking? I can't get my computer to stop blanking the screen after a few minutes -- it didn't used to
[03:59] <Super> xserver-xorf-core 1.1.1-oubuntu10
[04:00] <SpudDogg> snoops, think i should try kaffeine?
[04:00] <riddlebox> what can I do about nvidia drivers locking up my system?
[04:00] <snoops> I'd give mplayer a go
[04:00] <Super> DigitalNinja: my spelling skills today rock :))
[04:00] <DigitalNinja> Super: How do I find out the version I have
[04:00] <Super> dpkg -l xserver-xorg-core
[04:00] <dabaR> bianconeri: /j #ubuntu+1
[04:01] <DigitalNinja> riddlebox: Join the club! I was hoping to spend the day playing battlefield 1942 on my new nvidia card but no luck
[04:01] <snoops> and where did you install the w32 codecs from?
[04:01] <DigitalNinja> Super: xserver-xorg-c 1.0.2-0ubuntu1 X.Org X server -- core server
[04:02] <riddlebox> DigitalNinja, I actually installed edgy because I thought it was something in dapper but still have the problem in edgy
[04:02] <Super> yes, that is the one i want
[04:02] <blanny> can someone tell me how i specify which drivers module-assistant will make from a set?
[04:02] <Super> let me change the sources.list to dapper and see
[04:02] <DigitalNinja> riddlebox: What kind of problems are you having? My box locks up on me and the screen truns to garbage
[04:03] <snoops> is there a list of bug fixes from dapper to edgy?
[04:03] <riddlebox> DigitalNinja, my box locks up and I can only move the mouse
[04:03] <DigitalNinja> riddlebox: That happens to me as well
[04:03] <fnf> Is there anyone using nfsclient ?.
[04:03] <Flannel> snoops: Edgy isn't really 'bugfixes' from dapper, it's new versions of everything
[04:03] <mumrah> should i upgrade to 6.10, or is it still too beta
[04:03] <DigitalNinja> riddlebox: What kind of hard ware are you using
[04:04] <sc0tt_> gets released tomorrow doesn't it?
[04:04] <snoops> yeah I realise that Flannel, but I was hoping there would also be some bug fixes from dapper
[04:04] <riddlebox> DigitalNinja, nvidia geforce 5200
[04:04] <eegore> does somebody know what I need to put in my xorg to get the system to see the eight mouse buttons I have?
[04:04] <oblib> Can anyone tell me how to make my computer stop blanking the screen after a few minutes of idleness?
[04:04] <snoops> eegore, you'll need to use the evdev driver, and point it to a different place for hardware and such..
[04:05] <snoops> if you follow say an mx1000 guide
[04:05] <DigitalNinja> riddlebox: nvidia geforce nx7600 on a epox geforce 6100 motherboard
[04:05] <snoops> it should outline what you need to do for yours
[04:05] <dabaR> oblib: is it software or hardware?
[04:05] <eegore> snoops: evdev driver
[04:05] <eegore> ?
[04:05] <jl_> oblib  change screensaver timeout
[04:05] <SpudDogg> snoops, turns out all you need to play the encrypted WMVs and DVDs is this .deb     http://developers.videolan.org/libdvdcss/
[04:05] <fnf> oblib: take a look at the man pages of xset, under dpms section
[04:05] <DigitalNinja> riddlebox: I've got a thread going on the mailing list
[04:05] <oblib> dabaR,  and jl_ screensaver is disabled.
[04:05] <Flannel> snoops: well, yes, theoretically the new versions already have all the fixes that were put into dapper
[04:06] <oblib> fnf, DPMS is disabled, can xset still mess with stuff?
[04:06] <snoops> Flannel, just wanted a list of known fixes, however small it is ;)
[04:06] <fnf> oblib: how to you know it was disabled ?
[04:06] <Flannel> snoops: I don't believe one exists, no.
[04:06] <meheren> how do I get opera to identify itself as ie
[04:06] <meheren> or firefox... or epiphany
[04:06] <snoops> eegore right, your xorg.cong using the mouse driver, instead of evdev..what mouse is it?
[04:07] <oblib> fnf, I told it so in my xorg.conf, and MythTV detects it as disabled
[04:07] <mumrah> so should i stick with Dapper? or is Edgy worth the upgrade right now
[04:07] <MrBond82> Can someone help me setup dhcp server for eth1 but not eth0, and can someone help me run get bind/named working so that I can use my gateway Ip to do dns lookups on behalf of my clients?
[04:07] <SpudDogg> !edgy
[04:07] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[04:07] <Flannel> meheren: You'd have to change the UA it sends out.  It... might be in the configuration
[04:07] <SpudDogg> !schedule
[04:07] <ubotu> Ubuntu uses a strict timetable for releases, which means that sometimes newly released programs miss the timetable. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases for more. Edgy schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseSchedule
[04:07] <bruenig> mumrah, two days, I would just wait for the final release
[04:07] <eegore> logitech mx518
[04:07] <Flannel> Edgy is scheduled for release on the 26th
[04:07] <mumrah> bruenig: ok, will do
[04:07] <oblib> fnf, I just tried 'xset -dpms' I'll see if that helps
[04:08] <mumrah> bruening, will i be able to upgrade without a full reinstall?
[04:08] <meheren> flannel, any idea where this configuration is?
[04:08] <dabaR> MrBond82: what dhcp server?
[04:08] <snoops> eegore then yes, definitely need to use the evdev driver
[04:08] <fnf> oblib: It seems to be out of my reach here, but I'd try to re-enable it and run 'xset dpms 0 0 0' to practically disable all kinds of blanking. Just a check.
[04:08] <eegore> snoops: is there a howto?
[04:08] <bruenig> mumrah, you should be able to upgrade like in the past, i.e. without a full reinstall, unless you want a full reinstall which can be done also
[04:08] <MrBond82> dabaR-- no idea to tell you the truth... I installed ubuntu dapper server CD and i saw it installed dhcp3-client so I wonder if I gotta use dhcp3-serer as well?
[04:08] <Flannel> meheren: the ... options menu item or whatever?
[04:08] <snoops> yep, there will be howto's in the ubuntu forums and howtos all over google eegore
[04:09] <meheren> flannel, under firefox? or opera or epiphany
[04:09] <oblib> fnf, weird thing is that it didn't used to, so I figure some recent update changed something.
[04:09] <Flannel> meheren: Opera... FF you can get a plugin to do it, User Agent switcher.  Epiphany,... no idea.  try googling, or poke around the options
[04:09] <Chad448> hey guys got a quick rdiff-backup question
[04:09] <meheren> ok... thanks for your help
[04:10] <mumrah> bruenig, thanks
[04:10] <dabaR> MrBond82: you want just any dhcp server, then, right? I use dnsmasq and it has one self-explanatory config file in which you can set which interface to run it on
[04:11] <dabaR> MrBond82: now, I am saying this out of memory, let me check.
[04:11] <fnf> oblib: Yup, there're things that's not totally obvious, even in OSS such as Linux, me has the same minor issue with portmap about it automatically starts at boot time, no matter what I told it not to.
[04:11] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know if doing my financial planning with a program like "KMyMoney" is secure enough?
[04:12] <dabaR> MrBond82: ya, my memory was correct.
[04:12] <MrBond82> dabar- what is dnsmasq ?
[04:12] <SpudDogg> snoops did you get my last message to you?
[04:13] <dabaR> MrBond82: a dns masquerading dhcp server
[04:13] <snoops> SpudDogg the libdvdcss one?
[04:13] <dabaR> MrBond82: meaning it does dns as well
[04:13] <SpudDogg> snoops, yea that was the one.  you didnt comment, and i just wanted to make sure you got it.  i thought it was a pretty handy piece of info
[04:15] <dabaR> MrBond82: they have a tutorial here: http://www.linuxtopia.org/online_books/system_administration_books/ubuntu_starter_guide/ch07s04.html it is not for dnsmasq, though.
[04:15] <SpudDogg> Does anyone know if doing my financial planning with a program like "KMyMoney" is secure enough?

[04:20] <nol13> hi i need help, all of a sudden my scroll wheel doesnt work, anyone have any idea why this might be?   it could have something to do with a short power outage cuz it hasnt worked since, but everything else is fine so i dunno. how can i fix this?
[04:20] <MrBond82> varsendaggr-- go to google and check each process to see if there are any funny ones
[04:20] <abbi2b> the default i386 works fine
[04:21] <wweasel> Is there a command I can pass in Bash to lock the screen?
[04:21] <Xenguy> So Edgy is being released like a month early?!
[04:21] <Xenguy> wweasel: man vlock
[04:21] <Xenguy> wweasel: that may or may not be what you want actually
[04:21] <wweasel> Xenguy: Is that equivalent to hitting the power button in the top right corner and choosing "Lock Screen"?
[04:22] <Xenguy> wweasel: no, I think you want to set a hotkey to lock the screen in Gnome - is that it?
[04:23] <wweasel> Xenguy: No, I want to set an alias in my bashrc to lock my screen.
[04:23] <SuperMiguel> is edgy ready?
[04:23] <livingtm> does easyubuntu work on edgy?
[04:23] <oblib> dabaR,  did you have any suggestions for helping me disable blanking?
[04:23] <Xenguy> wweasel: do you want to lock screen on the command line (i.e. console) or in X ?
[04:23] <wweasel> Xenguy: command line
[04:24] <Xenguy> wweasel: at the console, use 'vlock'
[04:24] <Xenguy> wweasel: in X, try: System > Preferences > Keyboard shortcuts
[04:24] <dabaR> oblib: no, not really, just the really basic ideas which you seem to have tried already
[04:24] <nol13> i like you guys, do you like me?
[04:25] <wweasel> Xenguy: vlock looks to be just the trick. thanks
[04:25] <MrBond82> nol13 - you rock
[04:25] <Xenguy> wweasel: yw
[04:25] <nol13> thx, u2
[04:25] <Xenguy> nol13: <drawl> well now that all depends... </drawl>
[04:25] <SeanTater> Ever seen the directory listings like these: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/ ? How do I embed the listings into a web page like that?
[04:26] <SuperMiguel> is edgy ready???
[04:26] <DarkMageZ> SuperMiguel, not till the 26'th
[04:26] <SeanTater> SuperMiguel: only 99% so, it's still in RC
[04:27] <SuperMiguel> it will be in 2 days
[04:27] <SuperMiguel> what else are they going to do?
[04:27] <tarzeau> someone who can help me to get this built? http://<IP_ADDRESS>/lud/lonewarrior.tar.gz
[04:27] <SeanTater> SuperMiguel: watch for showstopper bugs
[04:28] <dabaR> if there are broken packages on my system, is that definitely going to be noticed by aptitude -f install?
[04:29] <MrBond82> Whats the difference between dhcpd and dhcp3-server ?
[04:30] <Alakazamz0r> one serves DHCP
[04:30] <Alakazamz0r> oh
[04:30] <Alakazamz0r> i duno
[04:30] <linoob> hello
[04:30] <Alakazamz0r> hello
[04:30] <linoob> i need help installing firefox 2, im getting errors
[04:31] <MrBond82> linoob - what errors?
[04:31] <DigitalNinja> I think i have my nvidia card working
[04:31] <DigitalNinja> I compiled from source
[04:32] <linoob> firefox/firefox-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libmozjs.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:32] <fatbrain> How can I change the default-application which runs when I'm double-clicking a file?
[04:32] <DigitalNinja> or the tool from nvidia compiled from source
[04:32] <MrBond82> linoob-- try apt-get install libmozjs
[04:32] <DigitalNinja> time to take it out for a test drive
[04:32] <DigitalNinja> be back
[04:32] <dabaR> fatbrain: right click on file, properties, open with
[04:33] <linoob> i would, but thyat only has firefox 1.5, 2 was released 4 hrs ago
[04:33] <Cas> I try to get some data from a bad ext3 partition, dd stalls when I read the partition. Is there any way how I can find out what blocks are corrupted so I can skip them or another way to some data back?
[04:33] <fatbrain> dabaR: that will change it that instance, but I want all my files ending with .ext opened with a different program
[04:33] <andresmujica> Cas: try with dd_rescue
[04:34] <Cas> andresmujica: thanks! I will try it out!
[04:35] <dabaR> fatbrain: it should do that.
[04:36] <bruenig> linoob, firefox 2.0 has been out on ftp servers for 30 hours or so
[04:37] <bruenig> and RC 3 is actually the exact same as firefox 2.0 so if you counted that, it would be much longer
[04:37] <kitche> linoob: you can also download it right from their website
[04:37] <linoob> but it hasn't been officially distributed on the website untill tjust then
[04:37] <dabaR> anyways, I bet my life that someone will have a 2.0 firefox for dapper packaged soon, and I dare to speculate it will be in the seveas packages
[04:37] <hansin321> join #ubuntu-boot
[04:37] <sethk> you really don't need a package for firefox.  It is simply a directory
[04:38] <bruenig> linoob, it is generally pretty easy to run the firefoxes from thier site. Just get it extract it, cd into and ./firefox
[04:38] <dabaR> people like packages, give people what they like
[04:38] <nol13> ok never mind about the scroll wheel, switched mice and it work now, but one more thing, my keyboad map is off, a little, the 'pipe' foward slash' key gives < and > and im not sure what map i should switch too
[04:38] <fatbrain> dabaR: got it working, thanks
[04:38] <sethk> dabaR, I'm not objecting, just saying that people don't have to wait for it.
[04:38] <dabaR> fatbrain: good work, welcome
[04:38] <dabaR> sethk: true
[04:39] <hansin321> Curious how people are liking Firefox 2.0 vs. 1.5.x.
[04:39] <tarzeau> hansin321: i don't like either
[04:39] <dabaR> hansin321: I use epiphany
[04:39] <bruenig> I like the default theme a little better. Not big on the x on each tab. Have to be careful now when I switch tabs so as to not close it
[04:39] <nol13> havent tried 2.o yet, curious as well
[04:39] <nol13> i dont like epiphany tho
[04:40] <dabaR> does it change tabs when you use the scroll wheel over tabs?
[04:40] <tarzeau> tried links2 -g ?
[04:40] <bruenig> epiphany needs a search bar, and some more extensions and then it is usable
[04:40] <linoob> nope, didn't run
[04:40] <Super> goodbye guys
[04:40] <dabaR> bruenig: you can search from the address bar
[04:40] <bruenig> google yeah
[04:41] <nol13> epiphany needs a search bar, and some more extensions and then it is usable
[04:41] <hansin321> By the way, in an IM client, when you are responding to someone (e.g. --> hansin321: i dont like either) is there a way to automatically have there name start at the begining of a line, or do people just type it in before their response.  Just curious.  Thanks.
[04:41] <bruenig> dabaR, it doesn't change tabs when you scroll
[04:41] <kitche> hansin321: type part of name then press tab in your IRC client
[04:42] <nol13> bye bye phans!
[04:42] <sethk> hansin321, how would the client know to whom your comment is directed?
[04:42] <kenshin_ds> anyone
[04:42] <hansin321> kitche: Thanks!!
[04:42] <bruenig> now it has tabs scroll across the screen which is pretty stupid. Instead of just resizing them constantly, it has some minimum size and if you have too many tabs to fit that minimum size, it makes you scroll to see them
[04:42] <kenshin_ds> can send me the list of repositories extrA?
[04:42] <kenshin_ds> ubuntuguide.org is down
[04:43] <kenshin_ds> and i can get the extra repositories
[04:43] <sethk> bruenig, doesn't it have a config option to not do that?
[04:43] <hansin321> I must have a BASH (or C or K or etc.) shell running inside this thing ;)
[04:43] <sethk> kenshin_ds, ordinarily they are in your file already, albeit commented out.
[04:43] <linoob> wtf
[04:43] <bruenig> sethk, I am sure it does. Probably has a config option on the red x too
[04:43] <kenshin_ds> sethk, hum...
[04:44] <dabaR> bruenig: ya, epiphany does that too.
[04:44] <sethk> kenshin_ds, I can put mine on the paste site for you, but check first
[04:44] <kenshin_ds> ok
[04:44] <hansin321> Just kidding of course.  I didn't know it could do name completion with Tab.
[04:44] <dabaR> what is that thing you typpe into the address bar to get to the settings? about: properties or what was it?
[04:44] <kenshin_ds> here is all uncommented
[04:44] <kitche> dabaR: about:config
[04:45] <sethk> hansin321, you were kidding, but you were also right.  There is a common library used by applications that do tab completion.
[04:45] <kenshin_ds> sethk, if u cant paste your on a site i will be thankful
[04:45] <kenshin_ds> *can
[04:45] <sethk> kenshin_ds, k
[04:45] <Random_Transit> can anyone tell me if firefox 2 is in the repos yet??
[04:45] <sethk> !paste
[04:45] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (you can always find it in the channel topic, among other useful things)
[04:45] <jtf0518> anyone here running X11vnc with XGL and Beryl on Dapper?
[04:45] <hansin321> I have not tried Edge yet.  Is there a noticable difference with the init replacement?
[04:45] <hansin321> sethk: Thanks also.
[04:46] <linoob> whats the command to uninstall a packge
[04:46] <fiveiron> linoob, "sudo apt-get remove package-name"
[04:46] <linoob> ty
[04:46] <tarzeau> anyone going to http://nightshift.untergrund.net/ ?
[04:47] <sethk> kenshin_ds, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/28198/
[04:47] <kenshin_ds> sethk, very very thanks :D
[04:47] <Agrajag-> g'day, i just upgraded to edgy from dapper and i don't get DRI with xorg using fglrx. in my Xorg.log i get "DRI initialization failed! (maybe driver kernel module missing or bad)". lsmod tells me that the fglrx module is loaded. i have the xorg-driver-fglrx and linux-restricted-modules-generic packages installed. current kernel is 2.6.17-10-generic. what could be wrong?
[04:47] <bruenig> ah, I figured out how to get that x off
[04:47] <kitche> Agrajag-: see if mesalib is installed
[04:48] <tritium> Agrajag-: #ubuntu+1 for edgy for a few more days
[04:48] <Chippy> tritium: edgy comes out on the 26th right?
[04:48] <MrBond82> Are there any good documents that can help me setup bind to be a dns request forwarder?
[04:48] <linoob> wats new in edgy
[04:48] <sethk> MrBond82, why bind?
[04:48] <MrBond82> sethk- why not?
[04:49] <sethk> MrBond82, because that isn't what bind is designed to do.
[04:49] <dabaR> linoob: read the release candidate page from ubuntu.com
[04:49] <sethk> MrBond82, why not use, oh, apache.  :)  It also isn't designed to do that.
[04:49] <tritium> Chippy: yes
[04:49] <Lord_Rage> Can someone give me a hand on installing Ubuntu on an old mac?
[04:49] <Chippy> tritium: thought so, thanks
[04:49] <MrBond82> sethk - what do you use then?
[04:50] <kitche> MrBond82: you mean something like a cache dns server?
[04:50] <sethk> MrBond82, I use dbjdns, but not because bind can't do things.  bind is just too much of a PITA to deal with (IMO, although most people running a name service on a linux box do use it)
[04:50] <MrBond82> kitche - not really even cache.. more like just to ask my isp's dns's whenever an dns lookup is needed
[04:50] <dabaR> linoob: this page in particular https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseNotes
[04:51] <Agrajag-> kitche: apt-cache search mesalib gives nothing.
[04:51] <sethk> MrBond82, to do that, you just put the servers in /etc/resolv.conf
[04:51] <kitche> MrBond82: umm why not just use a router :)
[04:51] <sethk> MrBond82, you aren't running a name service, you are just telling your own apps who to talk to.
[04:51] <franklin_> How do I access the IEEE1394 port on my laptop? or how do I load the raw1394 module?
[04:52] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: what exact machine?
[04:52] <MrBond82> whoa people hang on here... I got a network behind my ubuntu box.. I need the ubuntu router's ip to be the "dns server" for all the clients. I want the ubuntu to forward the requests to my isp's dns servers
[04:52] <MrBond82> ...on behalf of my clients
[04:52] <Lord_Rage> An ibook g3 clamshell
[04:52] <Lord_Rage> Running 9.1
[04:52] <dobbo0> is there any way to run a wine app via crontab?
[04:53] <_goofy_> any one heard of an image file with the extension .daa
[04:53] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: do you happen to know if it is an oldworld mac?
[04:53] <Lord_Rage> I haven't a clue.  How would I find out?
[04:53] <franklin_> anyone, how do I access the IEEE1394 port on my laptop? or how do I load the raw1394 module?
[04:54] <SpudDogg> does anyone know why i cannot install mplayer?  when i 'sudo apt-get install mplayer' i get an error saying the package has no installation candidate.  any ideas?
[04:54] <kitche> SpudDogg becuase it's not in the repos that you have probably
[04:54] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: not sure:) have you seen this page and found your computer on it?
[04:54] <kitche> !mplayer > SpudDogg
[04:54] <SpudDogg> kitche, sup man!
[04:55] <domster> I don't like the labels for my mounted partitions, which show up on my desktop - and I don't want to have to label the partitions anyway, because the labels wouldn't be correct in other cases: how can I either rename what the show up as on the desktop, or failing that, just remove the icons
[04:56] <domster> and, if possible, I'd still like to have the icons in the places menu, just not on the desktop
[04:56] <dabaR> domster: it is an option for nautilus in the gconf-editor. Does that help?
[04:56] <domster> dabaR, should do
[04:56] <domster> I'll have a hunt aroun
[04:56] <bruenig> gconf-editor, the ease of the registry in linux!
[04:56] <dabaR> cool
[04:57] <do_kev> does anybody have experience setting up permissions with Samba?  I'm trying to get a windows machine to access my linux box, and the Windows machine can see me on the list of workgroup computers, but cannot access my computer or files.
[04:57] <bruenig> oh by the way if anyone cares, I found the about:config option to remove the red x's in firefox 2.0 and to make it where you can have 25 tabs open before it requires you to start scrolling
[04:57] <franklin_> does anyone know how I would go about mounting a device via the ieee1394 (4-pin firewire) port?  Or how I would load or get the raw1394 module?
[04:58] <Lord_Rage> dabaR: What page?
[04:58] <SpudDogg> kitche, i have all the repos checked, and i still get the same error
[04:58] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: heh https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOnMac
[04:59] <XyzzySqrl> Uh, hi. I'm new to Ubuntu and having kind of an intricate and weird issue with it. Should I just blurt out the details...?
[05:00] <dabaR> XyzzySqrl: yes
[05:00] <wastrel> blurt!
[05:00] <wastrel> but don't paste :]
[05:00] <ArrenLex> !ask
[05:00] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:01] <boris55> can I ask a question?
[05:01] <ArrenLex> !ask
[05:01] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:01] <sethk> boris55, you did
[05:01] <sethk> boris55, and you only get one.  :)
[05:01] <XyzzySqrl> My old drive was set up for NTFS. I'd like to read from it. However, I think I managed, in my fumbling, to hose the FAT. It now reads as being a Linux drive, but all the data is still stored in NTFS format (according to Partition Commander).
[05:01] <Hal_> I am running Dapper Drake on an AMD 64, I have recently installed ndiswrapper and am using a windows INF driver for a Netgear wg111v2 wireless adaptor. My network access is limited, I receive pings only from select domains, firefox won't work, and nor will gaim, I am completely stumped. Does anyone have any suggestions?
[05:02] <Lord_Rage> dabaR: It says I need v5.4, where do I get that?
[05:02] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, that's easily fixed, but
[05:02] <boris55> dang.
[05:02] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, it doesn't have a FAT, exactly,
[05:02] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: 5.04?
[05:02] <Led_Zeppelin> anyone here use Skype
[05:02] <dthacker> I just generated an openPGP key.  It shows lots of fields, but now I'm supposed to upload the key-id.  None of these fields are labelled key-id.  what is the key-id?
[05:02] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, check your DNS settings
[05:02] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, if nothing is changed, other than the partition type, just use fdisk to change it back.
[05:02] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, if the partition itself hasn't been touched, than that will work fine.
[05:03] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r: Sorry, I have been away from Linux a good 5 years, where do I check the DNS settings?
[05:03] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, however, it's hard to understand how you got into that position without touching the partition.
[05:03] <Alakazamz0r> ./etc/resolv.conf
[05:03] <Lord_Rage> dabaR: Wait, nvm, I read it wrong.  But yea, mines on the list
[05:03] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r: What would I be looking for?
[05:03] <Alakazamz0r> you need to edit that file.
[05:03] <Alakazamz0r> mine reads: nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:03] <Alakazamz0r> i have 2
[05:03] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: and did you try insatlling and have a problem?
[05:04] <kingrayray> hey, guys on KDE, it seems to have issues in the file manager with a few image types.. for example, it doesn't see JPG's
[05:04] <kingrayray> and when i try to open them
[05:04] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, http://www.die.net/doc/linux/man/man5/resolv.conf.5.html
[05:04] <kingrayray> it acts like it doesn't know how to use them
[05:04] <Hal_> OK.
[05:04] <kingrayray> but only some jpg's, its confusing :[
[05:04] <sethk> kingrayray, that's odd, I see them.
[05:04] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, are you connected through DHCP:
[05:04] <Alakazamz0r> ?
[05:04] <sethk> kingrayray, oh, yes, only some jpegs, that's a bug
[05:04] <Hal_> Yes I think so.
[05:04] <franklin_> does anyone know how I would go about mounting a device via the ieee1394 (4-pin firewire) port?  Or how I would load or get the raw1394 module?
[05:04] <sethk> kingrayray, not sure whether there is a fix for that yet.
[05:04] <XyzzySqrl> sethk: It's quite likely I did accidentally mess with the partition type. Just as the partition section of the Ubuntu installed opened there was a power hiccup. So I decided to stop and reboot and make sure things were okay. This clearly wasn't my best move.
[05:04] <dabaR> Alakazamz0r: I think your nickname is elite, in a positive way
[05:04] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, have you tried the "dhclient" command?
[05:05] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, well, if that's all you did, it doesn't hurt anything
[05:05] <kingrayray> sethk: i hope there's a fix soon, its irritating.. lol
[05:05] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, it only changes two bytes in the mbr.
[05:05] <kingrayray> least its a known issue, makes me feel better
[05:05] <kingrayray> thanks :)
[05:05] <Alakazamz0r> lol dabaR, it used to be alakazam... but... someone registered that one on me.
[05:05] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r: No, but if I have it we'll find out soon, let me run to the next room to try it.
[05:05] <Alakazamz0r> so i had to change it.
[05:05] <Alakazamz0r> hal
[05:05] <Alakazamz0r> 2nd thought
[05:05] <Alakazamz0r> wait
[05:05] <sethk> kingrayray, yes, indeed.  I used to use konq to print the equivalent of a contact sheet for photos.
[05:05] <XyzzySqrl> sethk: Ah, all right. Er, is there a FAQ on how I'd change it back then, or a guide to that command?
[05:06] <sethk> kingrayray, The kde image viewer has a mode that does mostly the same thing, so that's what I'm using for that purpose now.
[05:06] <dthacker> I have pub, uid, and sub.  Which of these is the key-id that launchpad is asking for?
[05:06] <Alakazamz0r> system>administration>networking
[05:06] <Alakazamz0r> click the dns tab
[05:06] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, just, as root, fdisk /dev/hda   (or whichever hd it is)
[05:06] <Alakazamz0r> make sure something is in DNS servers section Hal_
[05:06] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, then it's all menu driven.
[05:06] <XyzzySqrl> Ah. Thank you, I'll try that!
[05:06] <kingrayray> sethk: yeah, me too- but having icons with no icon, well that's just a pain :P
[05:06] <sethk> XyzzySqrl, there is a menu item for change partition type
[05:06] <Lord_Rage> dabaR: Well, I click to install it, it says "the application th created it could not be found" and I can't get it to boot from CD with "C" or that ctrl+option+apple+Del" thing
[05:06] <sethk> kingrayray, indeed, it is
[05:06] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r: Make sure something is DNS?
[05:06] <Alakazamz0r> yes
[05:07] <sethk> kingrayray, I haven't checked lately, there could be a fix, check the kde web site, and/or the #kde channel(sw)
[05:07] <Hal_> What do you mean?
[05:07] <Alakazamz0r> here's some dns servers
[05:07] <Alakazamz0r> get a pen
[05:07] <Hal_> Yes, OK.
[05:07] <Alakazamz0r> <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:07] <Alakazamz0r> <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:07] <Alakazamz0r> if nothings there use those
[05:07] <Alakazamz0r> if something is there, add one of those as a 3rd
[05:07] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: that is when you boot, and then you click to install?
[05:07] <Hal_> OK.
[05:07] <jackson> where is the python interpreter located in Ubuntu (after installing the repo packages)?
[05:07] <Hal_> Let me give these a shot then.
[05:07] <Alakazamz0r> :)
[05:08] <pppoe_dude> jackson, /usr/bin/python
[05:08] <Lord_Rage> I can't get it to boot from the CD period, so I tried to install it after booting 9.1
[05:08] <jackson> pppoe_dude: I found that, but isn't there supposed to be a single executable which acts as the interpreter? I can't find that file
[05:08] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: not possible afaik. Which CD do you have, Lord_Rage ?
[05:09] <Lord_Rage> dabaR: A burned one
[05:09] <sethk> jackson, /usr/bin/python
[05:09] <dabaR> Lord_Rage: what was the link you used to download it?
[05:09] <pppoe_dude> jackson, that is the interpreter.
[05:09] <pppoe_dude> jackson, or append version number
[05:10] <Lord_Rage> dabaR: http://ubuntu-releases.cs.umn.edu//6.06/ubuntu-6.06.1-desktop-powerpc.iso
[05:10] <jackson> pppoe_dude, sethk: oh! right. sorry thanks
[05:10] <meheren|> yay! i just succesvully got quiktime and itunes running on my box :)
[05:11] <Hal_> OK Alakazamz0r: I have some news, there is a DNS server <IP_ADDRESS> already in there, that's the wireless router. It tells me my ip address is <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:11] <Hal_> But that can't be right, can it?
[05:11] <sethk> Hal_, why not?
[05:11] <Alakazamz0r> Hal, add those others i gave you
[05:11] <XyzzySqrl> All right, let me see if that worked.
[05:11] <sethk> Hal_, perfectly valid private address
[05:11] <meheren|> i think sites that say oh this only workes with windows.... bla bla are so funny
[05:11] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, with <IP_ADDRESS> as your dns server, you're depending on your WAP for DNS.
[05:11] <dabaR> does anyone remember what web page there was mention of a known bug in the desktop cd for dapper ppc that the installer does not work? Or what was it, was it that manually editing part. tables does not work?
[05:11] <Alakazamz0r> something i never like to do
[05:11] <tz`desktop>  in ubuntu, is there a way to disable the graphic boot up mode and do a debug boot up
[05:12] <sethk> Alakazamz0r, nothing wrong with that.
[05:12] <Hal_> WAP is it?
[05:12] <meheren|> so far i have not found a single site like that, that does not work, out of the box, with ubuntu
[05:12] <Hal_> !WAP
[05:12] <pudland> is there a program to handle .deb files for opera?
[05:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about WAP - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:12] <Alakazamz0r> sethk, you're putting another variable in the connectivity chain.
[05:12] <Alakazamz0r> less variables.
[05:12] <Alakazamz0r> less problems.
[05:12] <sethk> Alakazamz0r, actually, no, you are taking one out
[05:12] <Hal_> Not WEP?
[05:13] <sethk> Alakazamz0r, one less thing to configure, one less opportunity to make a mistake
[05:13] <Alakazamz0r> sethk, ok...
[05:13] <franklin_> pleeease, does anyone know how I would go about mounting a device via the ieee1394 (4-pin firewire) port?  Or how I would load or get the raw1394 module?
[05:13] <Alakazamz0r> whatever man.
[05:13] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, just do as i say if you want to get it working.
[05:14] <sethk> Alakazamz0r, lazy.
[05:14] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r: I do, I added your DNS addresses but to no avail.
[05:14] <Alakazamz0r> ok
[05:14] <Hal_> I strike the same problem.
[05:14] <sethk> Hal_, if you aren't getting name resolution, your router needs to be reconfigured
[05:14] <Alakazamz0r> can you ping those dns servers you added?
[05:14] <sethk> Alakazamz0r, even if you set it manually, it will be overwritten on the next dhcp cycle.
[05:14] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, listen to sethk... he obviously knows everything.
[05:14] <sethk> Alakazamz0r, not everything, but I certainly know this.
[05:14] <Alakazamz0r> ok seth
[05:14] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r: Give a moment I will try.
[05:15] <Hal_> sethk: What do I need to reconfigure
[05:15] <DigitalNinja> I installed the nvidia driver from source. It still doesn't work
[05:15] <tz`desktop> anyone? ;[
[05:15] <sethk> Hal_, if you put in those addresses that Alakazamz0r gave you, and it still didn't resolve, we are looking in the wrong place altogether most likely
[05:15] <Alakazamz0r> 185.49.203.in-addr.arpa nameserver = dns0.telstra.net.
[05:15] <Alakazamz0r> 185.49.203.in-addr.arpa nameserver = dns1.telstra.net.
[05:15] <DigitalNinja> is the X server in Ubuntu woriking or broken in some way?
[05:15] <Alakazamz0r> those are your dns servers Hal_
[05:15] <sethk> Hal_, try resolving a name using either the "host" command or the "dig" command
[05:15] <kitche> DigitalNinja: you editted your xorg.conf?
[05:16] <Alakazamz0r> make sure thats in your router config
[05:16] <sethk> Hal_, both of those allow you to specify a dns server on the command line.  see if you can resolve one that way.
[05:16] <DigitalNinja> kitche: Yup! Well, I ran nvidia-xorg or something
[05:16] <dabaR> I installed another system, and its grub, so I want to use the grub for my ubuntu again, how do I switch back to that grub being the one used?
[05:16] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, can you ping dns0.telstra.net?
[05:16] <sethk> Hal_, the syntax is:    host name-to-resolve  dns-ip
[05:16] <kitche> DigitalNinja: sudo nvidia-xorgconfig?
[05:16] <DigitalNinja> kitche: I used glxinfo and direct rendering was "yes"
[05:17] <Alakazamz0r> kitche, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:17] <DigitalNinja> sudo nvidia-xorgconfig
[05:17] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r: the dns addresses you gave me sent pings back. I will try that one next.
[05:17] <Hal_> sethk: You want me to use a command line to configure my network?
[05:17] <Alakazamz0r> hal if you nslookup your IP you'll get your DNS servers
[05:17] <Hal_> With those command you just gave me?
[05:18] <DigitalNinja> kitche: I'm thinking of doing an install of Edgy
[05:18] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, dont do it.
[05:18] <kitche> Alakazamz0r: umm ok don't know hwy you sent me that
[05:18] <Alakazamz0r> :)
[05:18] <pluto> Physically looking at my sound card I read the following : CT 1750  - SB 16 MCD CSP.  Does this mean it's a Sound Blaster 16?
[05:18] <Alakazamz0r> i duno kitche random thought of the day.
[05:18] <sethk> Hal_, no, just to check whether you can resolve a name
[05:18] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Whay not? Is X broken in Edgy
[05:18] <sethk> Hal_, edit /etc/nsswitch.conf, and tell us what's on the dns line
[05:18] <maxflax> IF there are errors booting up.. is there a log file of the errors somewhere?
[05:19] <Alakazamz0r> no, i had some problems w/the video card drivers DigitalNinja
[05:19] <PFA> is there any way to get rid of the menu text on Gnome so that it's not taking up 1/5 of my panel?
[05:19] <sethk> Hal_, sorry, the line is hosts
[05:19] <Hal_> OK sethk, one second.
[05:19] <Alakazamz0r> pluto, does it look like this? http://oldman.ixbt.com/sound/creative/CT-1750(ASP)-1759/CT-1750(ASP)-1759.gif
[05:19] <thor> maxflax: either dmesg or /var/log/messages
[05:19] <sethk> Hal_, there is a line there that will (probably) say     hosts:  files dns
[05:19] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Maybe I should intall debian stable
[05:19] <sethk> Hal_, see if that is in fact what's there.
[05:19] <maxflax> So u all know.. compiling my own kernell and editing the config.. made my comp 30% faster
[05:19] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, whats wrong w/ubuntu
[05:19] <Alakazamz0r> maxflax, thats doubtful.
[05:19] <JonBoon> how do i install RealPlayer10GOLD.bin?
[05:19] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: I can't get my new nvidia card working
[05:19] <Hal_> sethk: There is no 'DNS' line there at all.
[05:20] <Alakazamz0r> jon_k, sh RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[05:20] <kitche> DigitalNinja: just so you know debian stable is way out of date
[05:20] <sethk> Hal_, the line says:    hosts:   files  dns
[05:20] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, why not.
[05:20] <pluto> Alakazamz0r: I get a Not Found message from that link.
[05:20] <sethk> Hal_, normally.  is there a line beginning with   hosts:   ?
[05:20] <maxflax> Alakazamz0r, ok.. maybe not 30%.. but theres a big diffrence i tell u
[05:20] <Alakazamz0r> http://oldman.ixbt.com/sound/creative/CT-1750(ASP)-1759/CT-1750(ASP)-1759.gif
[05:20] <Hal_> Yes
[05:20] <Hal_> 1 sec
[05:20] <Alakazamz0r> maxflax, maybe in boot time.
[05:20] <Hal_> "ndns"
[05:20] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Don't know. I thought it was the nvidia driver but someone told me the X server in Ubuntu is broken
[05:20] <sethk> maxflax, only if you had installed the wrong kernel
[05:20] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, are you in X right now?
[05:21] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: It could be hardware
[05:21] <sethk> Hal_, that's odd.  try commenting out that line, and putting in    hosts:  files dns
[05:21] <sethk> Hal_, I'll look up what ndns is supposed to mean.
[05:21] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: I'm not on my gaming box at the moment. It is running X but it locks up all the time
[05:21] <JonBoon> Alakazamz0r,  that didnt work
[05:21] <Alakazamz0r> JonBoon,
[05:21] <Hal_> The exact line is "hosts: files dns mdns"
[05:21] <Alakazamz0r> do this
[05:21] <pluto> Alakazamz0r: Yes, that looks right.
[05:21] <Hal_> OK
[05:21] <DigitalNinja> kitche: Old and working is better then new and broken.
[05:22] <sethk> Hal_, oh, that's ok then.  don't give me just s piece of the line.  :)
[05:22] <Alakazamz0r> chmod +xr RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[05:22] <Alakazamz0r> then sh RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[05:22] <Alakazamz0r> or
[05:22] <thor> JonBoon: you need to run it as root....'sudo ./RealPlayer10Gold.bin'
[05:22] <Alakazamz0r> ./RealPlayer10GOLD.bin
[05:22] <maxflax> thor, how do I get that to a text file.. and just not into the terminal window
[05:22] <Alakazamz0r> oh yeah, sudo
[05:22] <sethk> Hal_, is the problem that you can't resolve any names?
[05:23] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Any ideas why X locks up
[05:23] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, have you tried powercycling your modem?
[05:23] <JonBoon> it says the command is not found?
[05:23] <tgelter> hey guys - an easy question: where do I need to add a line to make ~/.Xmodmap be sourced as boot time? or where is .xinit located?
[05:23] <thor> maxflax: type 'dmesg >dmesg.txt' at the command prompt.
[05:23] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, whats the output of /var/log/X11/xorg.log
[05:23] <DigitalNinja> let me check
[05:23] <maxflax> sethk, all works.. even the soundcard.. didn't think the nv driver would work with the new kernel but they did :)
[05:23] <thor> maxflax: or 'cat /var/log/messages > messages.txt'
[05:23] <sethk> tgelter, you have to do it after X is started, not at boot time.
[05:23] <Alakazamz0r> why are you putting messages in a txt file.
[05:23] <Hal_> sethk: resolve any name? I can't connect to any websites, msn, aim etc won't work
[05:24] <sethk> maxflax, nv always works.  it's the nvidia driver that is kernel sensitive.
[05:24] <JonBoon> because i dont know what im doing
[05:24] <MrU_> Does anyone know a way to make xorg autodetect all of your display settings?
[05:24] <tgelter> sethk: and how would I do that? I just want .Xmodmap sourced
[05:24] <sethk> Hal_, did you try using the IP instead of the name in your web browser?
[05:24] <Hal_> sethk: it's basically 'AS IF' there is a firewall blocking almost everything. but firestarted (which i installed) is off.
[05:24] <sethk> tgelter, I think you want to do it in $HOME/.xinitrc
[05:24] <Hal_> Which IP?
[05:24] <maxflax> sethk, ok.. cool.. to bad the drivers kinda blows in grapichs thou.. I get much lag with themm
[05:24] <sethk> Hal_, try a traceroute
[05:25] <thor> JonBoon: then first type 'sudo chmod a+x RealPlayer10Gold.bin'
[05:25] <tgelter> sethk: and if that doesn't exist
[05:25] <sethk> Hal_, try   <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:25] <thor> JonBoon: make sure you are in the same directory as the RealPlayer binary
[05:25] <sethk> tgelter, create it.
[05:25] <kitche> Hal_: well firestarter isn't really the firewall it's iptables
[05:26] <tgelter> and then type "~/.Xmodmap" in it?
[05:26] <JonBoon> how do i change to my desktop?
[05:26] <sethk> Hal_, try ping <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:26] <sethk> Hal_, resuming you can't, then try   traceroute <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:26] <Gotti> hello all!
[05:26] <thor> JonBoon: probably Alt-F7
[05:26] <tgelter> sethk: sorry, I didn't use your nick when I asked that..."and then type "~/.Xmodmap" in it?"
[05:27] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, do you have a cable modem and when was the last time  your powercycled it.
[05:27] <Hal_> Ok sethk: The ping worked. It worked in a browser and actually loaded a page. The traceroute did not.
[05:27] <sethk> tgelter, yes, that's what I'm thinking.  Let me check something quickly...
[05:28] <sethk> Hal_, so you can get to a site by ip
[05:28] <Hal_> It appears so.
[05:28] <Hal_> Wouldn't that make it a really small problem?
[05:28] <sethk> Hal_, traceroute may be blocked for security reasons, but it you can use http://ip then we don't need traceroute
[05:28] <dabaR> Hal_: ya, only about a few inches in all
[05:29] <sethk> Hal_, yes, because the problem is that you can use numbers, but not the name, which is why we were all thinking dns.  However, just to be sure, try http://www.cql.com
[05:29] <sethk> Hal_, that's the same site as the IP I gave you.
[05:29] <Hal_> OK.
[05:29] <Hal_> 1 sec.
[05:29] <sethk> Hal_, also try this:     host www.cql.com <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:29] <pooru> anyone here is an intellimouse explorer?
[05:29] <pooru> err use* an intellimouse*
[05:29] <sethk> Hal_, that says send a dns request to <IP_ADDRESS>.   tell me both results.
[05:29] <sethk> Hal_, if I'm not here I'll check back shortly.
[05:30] <Alakazamz0r> ATTACK!
[05:30] <Alakazamz0r> lol
[05:30] <Alakazamz0r> http://<IP_ADDRESS>/squirrelmail-1.4.5/src/login.php
[05:31] <Hal_> Traceroute came back with no reply 30 times. www.cql.com does not load.
[05:31] <Hal_> But the ip still does.
[05:31] <kitche> yea it's dns
[05:31] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, its a dns issue.
[05:31] <Alakazamz0r> A. powercycle your modem.
[05:31] <Alakazamz0r> and router.
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> come back
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> if it doesn't work then
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> i'll help you out.
[05:32] <kitche> Alakazamz0r does he have anything in his /etc/resolv.conf?
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> yes
[05:32] <tmr_> I tried installing the NVIDIA drivers through synaptic, and now X just dies on start.
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> hes gettin DNS from his router.
[05:32] <Hal_> kitche: Yes, but only the router nameserver
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> i think his ISP had a netsplit.
[05:32] <dabaR> B?
[05:32] <Hal_> Whatever that means.
[05:32] <Hal_> lol
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> hal
[05:32] <Hal_> Alright Alakazamz0r. I'll reboot/restart it.
[05:32] <Alakazamz0r> can you get here.
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> http://mikeking.bounceme.net
[05:33] <kitche> Hal_: ah I usually have a few back ups but then again I don't really use my ISP DNS either
[05:33] <sethk> Hal_, rebooting won't help
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> Ceiling Cat!
[05:33] <sethk> I guess I'll let you guys finish this up
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> Hal...
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> lol
[05:33] <Hal_> I didn't think so
[05:33] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: I looked at the X log file and couldn't find anything wrong. Not really sure what I'm looking for though
[05:33] <Hal_> Alakazamz0r...
[05:33] <Hal_> ?
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> Seth has tried, he can continue trying
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> or you can give this a go.
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> its up to you
[05:33] <JonBoon> thanks, i figured it out!
[05:33] <tmr_> Says something like "NVIDIA: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI1:0:0) found"
[05:33] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, do this.
[05:34] <Hal_> lol
[05:34] <Alakazamz0r> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-sorg
[05:34] <Alakazamz0r> oh
[05:34] <Alakazamz0r> lol
[05:34] <Alakazamz0r> woah ninja.
[05:34] <Alakazamz0r> hmm...
[05:34] <dabaR> Alakazamz0r: that hurt me, the free porn link there.
[05:34] <sethk> Hal_, let's not get Alakazamz0r all upset here.  Try working with him, and if you think I can help you afterwards, then put my nick in a line
[05:34] <Alakazamz0r> you just installed this card?
[05:34] <Alakazamz0r> lol dabaR thats what you get for being a pron freak.
[05:34] <Hal_> Ok sethk, thanks for the help.
[05:35] <eternalswd> I'm trying to burn a cd-r.  The disc is blank, but it is being mounted as an Audio CD and I cannot write to it, what can I do to fix this?
[05:35] <Alakazamz0r> im not upset, i just dont want to see the man run in circles sethk
[05:35] <Hal_> lol
[05:35] <Hal_> Do you know how hot it is today? You guys got me running back and forth lol
[05:35] <Hal_> Breaking a sweat
[05:35] <Alakazamz0r> right
[05:35] <Hal_> tsk tsk
[05:35] <Alakazamz0r> Ubuntu is a great distro Hal_
[05:35] <sethk> Hal_, np. rebooting the router can't hurd.
[05:35] <Alakazamz0r> i want to see you stick w/it.
[05:35] <tmr_> Can anyone tell me how to unbreak my xorg.conf?
[05:35] <Alakazamz0r> is it a dlink Hal_ ?
[05:35] <riddlebox> hello, is there a way to get around the nvidia drivers locking up my system
[05:35] <Hal_> Uhm...
[05:36] <Hal_> I think it is.
[05:36] <Hal_> Yes.
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> yeah.
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> thought so.
[05:36] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: what will that do for me
[05:36] <Hal_> Not a fan?
[05:36] <sethk> Hal_, anyway, I hope he gets you fixed.  If you need me later, use my name and my IRC thing will beep (at least supposedly)
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> reconfigure your XServer
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> choose nvidia in there.
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> go through that, then try again.
[05:36] <Hal_> OK sethk.
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> Hal_, dlink's are notorious for jackin uip
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> i had one, and dont now.
[05:36] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: OK
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> :)
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> iptables is my router now.
[05:36] <Alakazamz0r> heh
[05:37] <eternalswd> tmr_, you might have a backup in the same directory, take a look there first
[05:37] <riddlebox> Alakazamz0r,  I checked in my xorg.conf file and nvidia was in there?
[05:37] <Alakazamz0r> riddlebox, i dont know was it?
[05:37] <dabaR> hehe, the question sentence
[05:37] <tmr_> Actually, nevermind.  Just needed to run nvidia-xconfig
[05:37] <tmr_> Thanks a lot, though
[05:37] <riddlebox> Alakazamz0r,  I checked in my xorg.conf file and nvidia was in there, what else should I do?
[05:37] <Alakazamz0r> lol@the question sentence
[05:37] <Alakazamz0r> riddlebox, did you dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:37] <Alakazamz0r> ?
[05:37] <eternalswd> how do I manually mount a blank cd-r?
[05:38] <Alakazamz0r> mount /mount/whateveryourcedromdriveiscalled
[05:38] <kitche> eternalswd: you don't mount a blank cd-r
[05:38] <riddlebox> Alakazamz0r,  yes
[05:38] <Hal_> brb reboot.
[05:38] <Alakazamz0r> ok hal
[05:38] <dabaR> kitche: would it not have a file system, so that is why you don't mount it?
[05:38] <Alakazamz0r> riddlebox, tail /var/log/X11/xorg.log
[05:38] <Alakazamz0r> oops
[05:38] <Alakazamz0r> ./var/log/Xorg.0.log
[05:38] <Alakazamz0r> i need a cig...brb
[05:38] <eternalswd> kitche so if it's been auto-mounted if I unmount it will I be able to write to it?
[05:38] <wastrel> h8n
[05:39] <kitche> eternalswd: well if it got mounted there has to be soemthing on it
[05:39] <Frederick> folks how long until kernel 2.6.17 be avaliable in apt? I got a camera wich requires it :P
[05:39] <Shaezsche> how can i configure gnomenetworkmanager not to automatically try to connect me to wireless on boot?
[05:39] <Shaezsche> i installed the network manager from automatix
[05:40] <eternalswd> kitche, brand new blank disc, was auto mounted as an Audio CD
[05:40] <dthacker> How long after you upload your PGP key to the Ubuntu keyserver before it should let you query it?
[05:40] <dabaR> Frederick: it is available in edgy, which is still in testing. The release scheduled date is oct. 27, which some people said is 2 days from now.
[05:40] <tgelter> sethk: I'll be back in a minute, I need to restart x
[05:41] <Frederick> dabaR: thanks a lot :)
[05:41] <dabaR> Frederick: you are welcome.
[05:42] <Frederick> dabaR: I bought a camera wich requirs it :p
[05:42] <eternalswd> kitche, at least that's what Nautilus is telling me.  Although when I double-click it it says cdda:///dev/hda so maybe it's not mounted?  If not, how do I write to it.  Nautilus' CD/DVD writer keeps telling me to insert a Blank Disk
[05:42] <dabaR> ( | )
[05:42] <dabaR> which is my representation of where you can put the :p heh
[05:43] <dabaR> no offense, I just thought it would be funny
[05:43] <kitche> eternalswd: try a new disc might be one of those discs that has soemthing burned on it already
[05:43] <Frederick> ^^
[05:43] <tmr_> Got another question. I'm trying to install stuff with the Add/Remove thingy, and it keeps asking for a password.  It's not taking my root password.  What gives?
[05:44] <dabaR> tmr_: does it take your own password?
[05:44] <Alakazamz0r> ok
[05:45] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: I'm still having problems with the system. If I shake a window it turns to garbage
[05:45] <Shaezsche> is it possible to access other computers on my network that are running windows xp???
[05:45] <eternalswd> okay, it's working.  I'm guessing it was a corrupt one I forgot to throw away :p
[05:45] <tmr_> dabaR: It did.  That's weird.  Does ubuntu not need root to run dpkg?
[05:45] <dabaR> tmr_: read the text presented by following the link ubotu is about to write
[05:45] <dabaR> !sudo
[05:45] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:45] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, what dirvers did you install
[05:45] <Alakazamz0r> Shaezsche, yes.
[05:46] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: The nvidia ones. the module was glx
[05:46] <GottiX> ::sigh:: the neighbors wireless is soo slow
[05:46] <Shaezsche> alakazamz0r how?
[05:46] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: There were a lot of options. Not sure if I picked the right ones. Oh, I did tell it not to use frame buffer
[05:46] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, what video card do you have?
[05:47] <tgelter> what's the program to catch mouse events and tell me the button number used?
[05:47] <Shaezsche> also, can anyone recommend me some more sources to add to my repos?
[05:47] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: geforce nx7600
[05:48] <tmr_> dabaR: My background is more debian and gentoo.  Doesn't ubuntu need root to install stuff?  I don't know why my user password worked.
[05:48] <jrib> tgelter: xev
[05:48] <jrib> ubotu: tell Shaezsche about repos
[05:48] <Shaezsche> alakazamz0r how?
[05:48] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, did you install these? http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8776/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8776-pkg1.run
[05:48] <tgelter> jrib: thanks
[05:48] <dabaR> tmr_: did you read the rootsudo wiki page?
[05:48] <jazzrocker> hi, my system crashed yesterday (Ubuntu 6) where it just froze completely. i had to hard power down. mlnet was running and when i try starting mlnet i get the following error: "DNS resolution does not work! Looking up www.mldonkey.net failed with Not_found.The core therefore is unable to get eDonkey serverlists and loading .torrent files via dllink from websites is also impossible. If you are using MLDonkey in a chroot environment you should
[05:48] <jazzrocker> consider reading this article to get DNS support back: http://mldonkey.sourceforge.net/Chroot"
[05:48] <Sutur> .
[05:48] <jazzrocker> i'm not using a chroot'd environment, just a default Ubuntu install
[05:48] <Sutur> This is Hal_, Alakazamz0r, are you there?
[05:48] <jazzrocker> anyone know how to fix this?
[05:48] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: I tried the ubuntu packages and then I tried the one from nvidia. Currently running the one from nvidia
[05:49] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, did you install these? http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8776/NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-8776-pkg1.run
[05:49] <Alakazamz0r> hi hal
[05:49] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur,
[05:49] <jazzrocker> i moved my old .mldonkey folder to a backup and created a fresh one, bu doing so, the mlnet core actually starts but it still displays that error. i do have DNS, i can get google.com and irc and everything.
[05:49] <cpk2> [NP] Tangent: yes?
[05:49] <jazzrocker> i googled my error and the only three pages that come up are in german
[05:50] <jazzrocker> s/bu/by/g
[05:50] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: Reboot didn't help, but maybe this will: I did some homework and found out that my ISP unlike others here in Australia don't have set DNS's but are "Server-assigned"
[05:50] <Sutur> Does that help at all?
[05:50] <[NP] Tangent> cpk2, I just saw your NP script in #amarok so I wanted to see if you used xchat or not. I would like such a script. But I'll just google it. :)
[05:50] <Alakazamz0r> well.. thats like most dns servers Sutur
[05:51] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Yup! I installed that
[05:51] <Mukunda> Does anyone know when Edgy is scheduled for release?
[05:51] <jazzrocker> and also with a fresh folder everything i was downloading is lost
[05:51] <jazzrocker> and also with a fresh folder everything i was downloading is lost
[05:51] <jazzrocker> oh sh*t! sorry
[05:51] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: I also tried some dns addresses of other who were having trouble with my isp and it didn't seem to help.
[05:51] <jazzrocker> i'm asking #mldonkey too but they're quiet
[05:51] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur,
[05:51] <Alakazamz0r> do this.
[05:51] <oblib> Can anyone tell me how to make my computer stop blanking the screen after a few minutes of idleness? Screensaver and Dpms are disabled
[05:51] <Alakazamz0r> put these numbers in your dns settings.
[05:51] <Alakazamz0r> on your router
[05:51] <Alakazamz0r> <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:51] <Alakazamz0r> <IP_ADDRESS>
[05:52] <Sutur> On my router. OK.
[05:52] <Shaezsche> how can i detect computers running windows!
[05:52] <Shaezsche> on my network
[05:52] <dabaR> !samba
[05:52] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[05:52] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, did you have any problems installing the driver?
[05:52] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: No
[05:53] <dabaR> Shaezsche: did you try just going to the places menu and connecting to the server. samba is actually not something you need.
[05:53] <pinky> So I just did a dist-upgrade to Edgy on my laptop and now X11 won't start... the fonts are messing up in the diagnostic output so I can't read the errors.
[05:53] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, have you read this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75074
[05:53] <cherubiel> pinky: logs at /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[05:53] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Yup! Followed that
[05:53] <Shaezsche> Couldn't display "smb:///mshome".
[05:53] <Shaezsche> is the msg i get
[05:54] <Shaezsche> it doesnt display computers on my netowrk
[05:54] <dabaR> Shaezsche: what is mshome? the workgroup?
[05:54] <Shaezsche> i think
[05:54] <dabaR> Shaezsche: that is not how it works.
[05:54] <Shaezsche> there should be more than one workgroup
[05:54] <wastrel> pinky:  you probably had binary graphic driver set up
[05:54] <Alakazamz0r> dark, whats in "tail -n 20  /var/log/Xorg.0.log"
[05:54] <Shaezsche> it doesnt let me display the workgroup
[05:54] <wastrel> need generic one for X until you install the proper thingies
[05:54] <dabaR> the URLS are in the form of \\servername\sharename.
[05:54] <wastrel> anyway, edgy stuff on #ubuntu+1
[05:55] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: I'm going to install Debian stable and see if 3D works there
[05:55] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, bad idea
[05:55] <DigitalNinja> Why
[05:55] <Alakazamz0r> i had to hack to get my drivers to work for the i810
[05:55] <dabaR> Shaezsche: in fact, the connect to server dialog offers the option of windows share, and then you just enter the server name and then the share name
[05:55] <Shaezsche> how am i supposted to know the name of my network
[05:55] <Alakazamz0r> i'd sugguest mandriva
[05:55] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: This is not the i810
[05:55] <Alakazamz0r> or... pclinuxos
[05:55] <Alakazamz0r> ok DigitalNinja good luck.
[05:55] <Shaezsche> where do i find server and share name? in windows its automatically configured
[05:55] <marcrosoft> is it worth it to switch to the k7 arch.. over the gerneric i386?
[05:55] <Alakazamz0r> yes marcrosoft
[05:56] <Alakazamz0r> if you have a k7
[05:56] <pinky> xf86OpenSerial keeps complaining about not being able to open /dev/wacom
[05:56] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: If it isn't working on Ubuntu then the only other option is to try somethig else
[05:56] <dabaR> Shaezsche: one sec.
[05:56] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, you'd be jumping from the frying pan to the skillet.
[05:57] <Alakazamz0r> there IS a fix for this.
[05:57] <Alakazamz0r> you want me to SSH in and fix it?
[05:57] <marcrosoft> i heard the generic was just as good.. Alakazamz0r i do have k7 ... amd athlon XP
[05:57] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: How is that. I just install debian and install the nvidia driver. Just like in ubuntu
[05:57] <DigitalNinja> only with apt
[05:58] <Alakazamz0r> marcrosoft, my opinion is go with the K7
[05:58] <DigitalNinja> just like in ubuntu
[05:58] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, have you ever installed debian before?
[05:58] <DigitalNinja> yup
[05:58] <GottiX> Im having a problem with the repos...anyone care to help?
[05:58] <dabaR> Shaezsche: you need to know the computer names, and the shared folder names.
[05:58] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Debian is the easy one. Slackware is the hard one.
[05:58] <Shaezsche> ok
[05:58] <atreyu> i'm trying to setup the .imwheelrc file, and i want to bind one of the buttons to a letter key, how is this done?
[05:58] <marcrosoft> Alakazamz0r, is it faster?
[05:58] <Shaezsche> does edgy have ntfs write turned ON by default?
[05:58] <Alakazamz0r> slackware is easy
[05:58] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: I was on slack for aobut a year
[05:58] <Alakazamz0r> gentoo is "hard"
[05:58] <dabaR> Shaezsche: each computer has a name, and that is shown in right click on my computer then properties, then computer name
[05:59] <atreyu> like "None, Up,h" does not set my button to type h
[05:59] <jazzrocker> gentoo is "crap"
[05:59] <Alakazamz0r> gentoo is time consuming
[05:59] <jazzrocker> ++
[05:59] <atreyu> is there a different synxtax i'm missing?
[05:59] <corevette> suse vs. ubuntu.....what are some pros and cons of BOTH
[05:59] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: gentoo just wants to be FreeBSD. Just get FreeBSD and skip gentoo
[06:00] <dcstimm> hey guys, why isnt fsck.hfs on the ubuntu livecd nor is it when you install hfsutils.. any idea?
[06:00] <Alakazamz0r> DigitalNinja, gentoo compiles everything
[06:00] <Alakazamz0r> and is EXTREMELY fast once you get it up
[06:00] <DigitalNinja> so does FreeBSD
[06:00] <Alakazamz0r> uuh no.
[06:00] <DigitalNinja> Yup!
[06:00] <DigitalNinja> You install from the ports tree
[06:00] <DigitalNinja> and build
[06:00] <dcstimm> Hey guys, what package is fsck.hfs part of?
[06:00] <Alakazamz0r> yea
[06:00] <Alakazamz0r> but its not default.
[06:01] <Vich> heya
[06:01] <Shaezsche> how do i edit gnome network manager's settings
[06:01] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: Oh, you don't build the base install. You only do that when you build world on an upgrade
[06:01] <Vich> I finally made some progress setting up my wireless
[06:01] <Shaezsche> it keeps trying to autoconnect me to wireless
[06:01] <Vich> following this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=176752
[06:01] <Alakazamz0r> aah DigitalNinja
[06:01] <dabaR> Shaezsche: the shared folder on a windows machine is represented in the windows explorer by a hand under the folder icon.
[06:01] <Alakazamz0r> i only use freebsd for hosting
[06:01] <Vich> but my net still doesn't appear to be working
[06:01] <Alakazamz0r> servers etc.
[06:01] <Shaezsche> NetworkManager Applet 0.6.3
[06:01] <DigitalNinja> Alakazamz0r: That works
[06:01] <dabaR> Shaezsche: if you right click on such a folder, and select properties, then go to the share tab, you will be presented with the share name of the folder.
[06:01] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: Still here. No luck yet mate.
[06:02] <DigitalNinja> ok
[06:02] <DigitalNinja> time to burn a debain CD
[06:02] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, did you put those numbers in your DNS settings on your router?
[06:02] <Sutur> Yes.
[06:02] <Alakazamz0r> good luck DigitalNinja
[06:02] <cherubiel> pinky: do you have any tablet inout devices?
[06:02] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, ...
[06:02] <dabaR> Shaezsche: now, if you have more than one windows computer, and you obviously do, then you can use the network neighbioorhood to find out all this info as well.
[06:02] <cherubiel> pinky: wacom is such a driver
[06:02] <Alakazamz0r> can you get to google.com?
[06:02] <cherubiel> pinky: you don't seem to have one though
[06:02] <dcstimm> Hey guys, what package is fsck.hfs part of?
[06:02] <dcstimm> Hey guys, what package is fsck.hfs part of?
[06:02] <dcstimm> oops
[06:02] <Alakazamz0r> ITS PART OF FSCK!
[06:02] <DigitalNinja> alakazamz0r: Thanks! I'll need it. My Debain skills are rusty
[06:02] <Alakazamz0r> jesus
[06:03] <Mukunda> So there is no ETA for edgy?
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> debin is cake man
[06:03] <dabaR> !find fsck.hfs
[06:03] <dcstimm> Alakazamz0r, no its not
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> its ubuntu...
[06:03] <Sutur> Nope. I can only ping it from the console. I can't open it in a browser.
[06:03] <DigitalNinja> Mukunda: End of the month or soething
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> well ubuntu is debian w/eyecandy
[06:03] <ubotu> Package/file fsck.hfs does not exist in dapper
[06:03] <dabaR> Mukunda: 27th I heard.
[06:03] <Shaezsche> can i retrieve files off of a ext3 partition from within windows?
[06:03] <Shaezsche> can ntfs read from ext3
[06:03] <dcstimm> Alakazamz0r, fsck           fsck.cramfs    fsck.ext2      fsck.ext3      fsck.minix     fsck.msdos     fsck.nfs       fsck.reiserfs  fsck.vfat
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, you can ping it from the console?
[06:03] <Shaezsche> i mean winxp
[06:03] <Sutur> Yes.
[06:03] <Sutur> Somehow.
[06:03] <jrib> !ext3 | Shaezsche
[06:03] <ubotu> Shaezsche: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[06:03] <DigitalNinja> Mukuna: I just sucked it down
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> hfs is a filesystem type
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> just like msdos
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> or minix
[06:03] <Alakazamz0r> or ext2
[06:03] <Shaezsche> is it safe?
[06:03] <Sutur> That's why this is so irritating, it doesn't make sense.
[06:04] <Shaezsche> because WRITING to ntfs is NOT safe
[06:04] <jrib> Shaezsche: works fine for me
[06:04] <DigitalNinja> Mukuna: I may install it this week
[06:04] <Mukunda> Gah, everyone knows it's out of the 26th (Europe), but there is no news on the hour it's out?
[06:04] <dcstimm> Hey guys, what package is fsck.hfs part of?
[06:04] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, have you tried another browser?
[06:04] <Shaezsche> jrib what works fine?
[06:04] <Shaezsche> isnt that for ext2
[06:04] <Sutur> I doubt it's a problem with the brower Alakazamz0r.
[06:04] <DigitalNinja> Mukunda: Just suck it down now, do the install and update on the 27th
[06:04] <Alakazamz0r> dcstimm, are you trying to be annoying?
[06:04] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, probably so.
[06:04] <dabaR> dcstimm: you saw what ubotu thought about that file name.
[06:04] <dcstimm> Alakazamz0r, your wrong
[06:04] <Alakazamz0r> im just wondering why.
[06:05] <Alakazamz0r> dcstimm, im right.
[06:05] <jrib> Shaezsche: fs-driver works (well worked at least when I was using it) fine.  It will write to your ext3 partitions as well
[06:05] <dabaR> 23:13 < ubotu> Package/file fsck.hfs does not exist in dapper
[06:05] <Alakazamz0r> dcstimm, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Add_Apple%27s_hfs_hfsplus_Utilities
[06:05] <Shaezsche> jrib i doubt that its safe
[06:05] <Alakazamz0r> its part of fsck for apple.
[06:05] <Shaezsche> jrib i doubt it is safe
[06:05] <jrib> Shaezsche: why... ext3 is completely open unlike ntfs
[06:05] <GottiX> deb http://core.fluxbox.org/~dopey/ unstable main <--supposedly this has the latest release of fluxbox in it, yet it is listed as "IGN" when i "apt-get" update ... any reason for this? I'm trying to upgrade to the latest realse through apt-get.
[06:05] <Shaezsche> i cannot risk losing my windows drie
[06:05] <Alakazamz0r> HFS+, HFS Plus, or Mac OS Extended are names for a file system developed by Apple Computer to replace their Hierarchical File System (HFS).
[06:05] <dcstimm> dabaR, why not?
[06:06] <Shaezsche> jrib is it SAFE for me to log into windows and copy files from ext3 to ntfs
[06:06] <jrib> Shaezsche: yes
[06:06] <dabaR> dcstimm: I do not know, but that is the syntax to search for a file. /msg ubotu find <fileName>
[06:06] <dabaR> dcstimm: as well, you can use apt-file for such a task.
[06:06] <jrib> Shaezsche: well I don't know how safe it is to log into windows but the rest should be ok ;)
[06:06] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: In the DNS settings, am I supposed to be configuring DNS Relay?
[06:06] <Shaezsche> jrib do you believe it is safe to write from ext3 to ntfs within ubuntu?
[06:07] <dcstimm> dabaR, but I searched with apt-cache search hfs, and non had fsck.hfs
[06:07] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur,
[06:07] <Alakazamz0r> paste the results of
[06:07] <Alakazamz0r> "cat /etc/resolv.conf" into a pastebin for me.
[06:07] <jrib> Shaezsche: I don't know enough about that, I personally wouldn't use it
[06:07] <dabaR> dcstimm: why the but, I told you the same thing
[06:07] <GottiX> anyone?
[06:07] <pinky> Is there a command line utility to read ODT files?
[06:08] <Sutur> "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>"
[06:08] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, do you know how to work your router?
[06:08] <corevette> what advantages does suse have over ubuntu
[06:08] <Alakazamz0r> corevette, none.
[06:08] <dabaR> GottiX: Im off, later guys.
[06:08] <jrib> corevette: ask #suse?
[06:09] <dabaR> corevette: keep in mind you are in #ubuntu:)
[06:09] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: Sadly much of the terminology is guesswork, but I have an understanding. Why?
[06:09] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, do this...
[06:09] <cps> pinky: you can unzip them and have a look inside
[06:09] <Alakazamz0r> http://<IP_ADDRESS>:8080
[06:09] <Alakazamz0r> click that.
[06:10] <Sutur> Are you trying to make me enter the router configuration page?
[06:10] <Alakazamz0r> yes
[06:10] <Sutur> That is where I am changing the settings.
[06:10] <Alakazamz0r> thats where you've been changing the settings?
[06:10] <Sutur> I'm making changes in right place my friend, they just aren't working :(
[06:10] <Alakazamz0r> pppoe = garbage
[06:10] <Alakazamz0r> :P
[06:10] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, WHERE are you making changes.
[06:11] <Alakazamz0r> in the router
[06:11] <Alakazamz0r> or on your computer?
[06:11] <graveson> i have an intermittent keyboard problem and have no idea where i can start troubleshooting this - with caps lock off ,my keyboard suddenly types in caps lock - it almost as if all the (shift functions) on the keyboard is inverted ?
[06:11] <iammisc> where is the open source radeon driver's homepage?
[06:11] <Sutur> I'm using the wireless to make changes on MY computer to the router. I can't access the router any other way other than by wireless.
[06:11] <Alakazamz0r> iammisc, ubuntu has an ATI driver.
[06:12] <Sutur> I assure you that I am definately changing settings for the router.
[06:12] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, you're not supposed to be touching the router.
[06:12] <Agux> Hello, Im a newbie, so sorry if its a stupid question. I was trying to install ubuntu, i have an 80gb disk partitioned into drives C and D, i was trying to create a new partition with the free space i had on drive D, whithout formatting anything, after going back and forward in the visual installation wizard i've realized my entire D drive is now an UNKNOWN drive, then i've decided to...
[06:12] <Agux> ...restart on windows, and i had a shock when i saw there is no D drive now in my explorer, if i've never formatted anything, it's possible to recover my D drive?
[06:12] <Alakazamz0r> you're supposed to be making configuration changes on your computer.
[06:12] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: I'm not.
[06:12] <Sutur> I am
[06:12] <Alakazamz0r> router or computer
[06:12] <Alakazamz0r> which one.
[06:12] <Sutur> OK lol this is getting confusing let me clear this up:
[06:12] <Alakazamz0r> ok
[06:12] <iammisc> i know i just want to see the status of how far 3d accel is on the igp 340m chipset
[06:13] <Sutur> The modem and wireless router are in another room. I am using the wireless connection to make changes to the way the router works through it's web-page interface.
[06:14] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, you're not even supposed to be making changes on your router.
[06:14] <Alakazamz0r> DO NOT go back to that config. page :)
[06:14] <Alakazamz0r> ok?
[06:14] <Sutur> Well, OK.
[06:14] <Alakazamz0r> at the top of your screen, you'll see "System", do you see it?
[06:14] <Sutur> No, because this is my windows machine.
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> lord.
[06:15] <Sutur> The linux machine is in the other room.
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> lol
[06:15] <Sutur> It's internet connection is broken because of a dns problem I'm trying to fix.
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> ok
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> listen
[06:15] <wastrel> what's wrong with configuring the router?
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> start>cmd
[06:15] <Sutur> Hence the wait every time I have to get information for you.
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> start>run
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> type CMD
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> enter
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> ipconfig /all
[06:15] <Alakazamz0r> what are your DNS servers set as?
[06:16] <Sutur> <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:16] <Sutur> That's all.
[06:16] <Alakazamz0r> hmm
[06:16] <Alakazamz0r> ok
[06:16] <wastrel> see the router is giving dhcp and is handling the dns
[06:16] <Sutur> Same as the DHCP server and default gateway, <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:16] <Alakazamz0r> go back into the other room and install lynx.
[06:16] <maxflax> im having trouble with the nvidia driver install. get some lame error about the kernel not macthing the drivers .. bla bla or something. then the installer ask me if I want the installer to try find them on the nviida homepage
[06:16] <wastrel> so the router has the isp's dns servers in its configgy thing.
[06:16] <Alakazamz0r> its a command line web browser
[06:16] <Alakazamz0r> then try to lynx google.com
[06:16] <Sutur> Yes I know of it.
[06:16] <Alakazamz0r> ok
[06:16] <Sutur> OK.
[06:16] <Alakazamz0r> brb
[06:16] <lasindi> Hi everyone, is there an easy way (i.e. using apt-get/dpkg) to install Firefox 2 on Ubuntu Dapper?
[06:17] <Alakazamz0r> im gonna drop to CLI
[06:17] <wastrel> and tell linux to talk to the router for dns
[06:17] <wastrel> no fuss no bother
[06:17] <wastrel> <3 router
[06:17] <pinky> So I unzipped an ODT file, but I can't tell where the actual document text is in any of the files... I check them all with vi (I think)
[06:17] <cps> pinky: content.xml
[06:17] <wastrel> mmm
[06:18] <Alakazamz0r> ok
[06:19] <pinky> cps" That file is 10KiB, but when I open it in vi it's gibberish.
[06:20] <cps> gibberish in what way?
[06:20] <Alakazamz0r> i love CLI
[06:20] <Alakazamz0r> i think... im not going to use X for... lent.
[06:20] <Alakazamz0r> hah!
[06:20] <wastrel> you can use CLI in X
[06:21] <Alakazamz0r> wastrel i know... i just dont like the way it looks.
[06:21] <Alakazamz0r> nofb!
[06:21] <Alakazamz0r> :D
[06:22] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: Lynx installed. Fails to look up google.com.
[06:22] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur ... wow.
[06:22] <Alakazamz0r> thats a mindboggler.
[06:22] <jrib> Sutur: do other sites work?
[06:22] <wastrel> Sutur:  what's in /etc/resolv.conf  ?
[06:23] <Alakazamz0r> his router is in resolv.conf
[06:23] <wastrel> yay
[06:23] <Sutur> *cries*
[06:23] <jrib> lynx had a bug with some sites (including google.com) so be sure to check another site
[06:23] <Alakazamz0r> jrib my lynx works w/google.
[06:23] <ThinkingMan> So I live in an apartment complex and in certain parts of my place my neighbor's wifi signal is stronger than mine so network manager tries to connect to that, is there a way to set up an exclude list for wireless networks?
[06:24] <Alakazamz0r> brb
[06:24] <jrib> Alakazamz0r: I didn't claim the bug affected everyone :)  It had to do with the size of /etc/mailcap.  It may even be fixed now
[06:24] <Sutur> The things we take for granted in Windows...
[06:24] <wastrel> Sutur:  you can't resolve names at all in linux?
[06:25] <Sutur> No.
[06:25] <Sutur> Just IP addresses.
[06:25] <wastrel> Sutur:  why don't you install openssh-server on your linux and ssh in from windows
[06:25] <Sutur> DNS is busted I hear.
[06:25] <wastrel> so you don't have to keep running back & forth
[06:25] <mick_> i am having trouble with mysql and getting it set up so that i can use myth tv, can anyone help? i get this error: Access denied for user 'mythtv'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
[06:25] <rbil> Sutur, why don't u just drop a known nameserver address in resolv.conf?
[06:25] <ThinkingMan> mick_: did you grant access to mythtv@localhost?
[06:25] <Sutur> Because wastrel, I have far greater problems than having to run from one room to another.
[06:25] <Alakazamz0r> rbil, ive been trying to get him to do that.
[06:26] <wastrel> Sutur:  :]   can you ping out to the internet from the linux box?
[06:26] <Sutur> It won't work.
[06:26] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, type this.
[06:26] <mick_> ThinkingMan, i THOUGHT i did, but it isn't really working so much
[06:26] <Sutur> Yes, only IP addresses and a handfull of websites.
[06:26] <Alakazamz0r> echo <IP_ADDRESS> > /etc/resolv.conf
[06:26] <rbil> just drop this one in ...
[06:26] <mick_> is there some sort of graphical ui like enterprise manager or anything?
[06:26] <wastrel> Alakazamz0r:  that's malformed and will clobber the existing resolv.conf, and needs sudo
[06:26] <Alakazamz0r> wait
[06:26] <Alakazamz0r> dont do that.
[06:26] <Alakazamz0r> yeah
[06:27] <rbil> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:27] <wastrel> Sutur:  fire up your router's web interface, find out what nameservers it's using, and stick those in your /etc/resolv.conf
[06:27] <ThinkingMan> mick_: open a terminal and type "mysql -u mythtv -p"
[06:27] <ThinkingMan> and when it prompts type in your password
[06:27] <Sutur> OK.
[06:27] <Alakazamz0r> echo nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> > /etc/resolv.conf
[06:27] <Alakazamz0r> sudo su -
[06:27] <Alakazamz0r> 1st
[06:27] <jsjc> hi friends
[06:27] <mick_> ThinkingMan, same error
[06:27] <rbil> Alak... >>
[06:27] <Alakazamz0r> hi jsjc
[06:27] <rbil> not a single >
[06:28] <ThinkingMan> well then either you're using the wrong password or you didn't grant correctly
[06:28] <jsjc> after been a lon time without computer I am back!
[06:28] <rbil> or you'll overwrite the whole file
[06:28] <mick_> http://www.linuxhelp.net/guides/mysql/
[06:28] <Alakazamz0r> root@malakai:~# echo nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> > /etc/resolv.conf
[06:28] <Alakazamz0r> root@malakai:~# cat /etc/resolv.conf
[06:28] <Alakazamz0r> nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:28] <Alakazamz0r> just for testing purposes
[06:28] <mick_> that is the guide i used to grant permissions
[06:28] <Alakazamz0r> he can get it back by hitting dhclient
[06:28] <ThinkingMan> mick_: how did you grant access for the user?
[06:28] <jsjc> I heard there is an Ubuntu DVD??? anyone can point me in the right direction? thanks
[06:29] <Sutur> jsjc: http://ftp.heanet.ie/pub/ubuntu-cdimage/releases/dapper/release.1/ubuntu-6.06.1-dvd-amd64.iso
[06:29] <Sutur> lol
[06:29] <bec> cfg
[06:29] <jsjc> Sutur anywhere I can read about the contents and what a bout if I dont have amd?
[06:29] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, did you type that and is it working now?
[06:29] <dabaR_> Sutur: still no dns?
[06:30] <Alakazamz0r> and wastrel thanks for that >> tip
[06:30] <Alakazamz0r> i didnt know that.
[06:30] <ThinkingMan> mick_: nevermind, that, just log into mysql with your default/root/admin account
[06:30] <ThinkingMan> let me know when you're there
[06:30] <bec> wtf..
[06:30] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: Which of the 4-5 commands did you want me to take a shot at?
[06:30] <mick_> ThinkingMan, ok
[06:30] <Alakazamz0r> root@malakai:~# echo nameserver <IP_ADDRESS> >> /etc/resolv.conf
[06:30] <Alakazamz0r> minus my info
[06:30] <Sutur> ok hang on.
[06:30] <Alakazamz0r> make sure to
[06:31] <Alakazamz0r> sudo su -
[06:31] <Alakazamz0r> 1st
[06:31] <Sutur> yes.
[06:31] <cafuego> 'sudo -i' (spawns one less shell)
[06:31] <ThinkingMan> mick_: mick_ select user, host from mysql.user where user like '%ytht%';
[06:31] <Alakazamz0r> cool cafuego
[06:31] <Alakazamz0r> ty
  ;-)
[06:32] <mick_> ThinkingMan, mythtv @ % and mythtv@localhost
[06:32] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: OK I did it. That's a fancy command, you could have just asked me to edit the file ;-)
[06:33] <ThinkingMan> OK, so the accounts are there, did you flush privileges?
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> Sutur, its fool proof
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> :)
[06:33] <mick_> ThinkingMan,  not that i know of
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> not calling you a fool... but you know what i mean.
[06:33] <ThinkingMan> aaahhh...
[06:33] <Sutur> Thanks I'm flatter you think so highly of me :-)
[06:33] <Sutur> Yes lol
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> LOL
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> :)
[06:33] <ThinkingMan> type "flush privileges;" at the mysql prompt
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> can you get anything now
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> can you ping that IP i gave you?
[06:33] <asdf_> anyone have any idea when or if Firefox 2.0 will be pushed to Dapper?
[06:33] <ThinkingMan> then log out and try and log in as mythtv
[06:33] <Sutur> The one I added to /etc/resolv.conf?
[06:33] <cafuego> asdf_: unlikely, maybe in backports
[06:33] <Alakazamz0r> yes
[06:34] <Alakazamz0r> can you browse now?
[06:34] <rbil> Suture, just ping google.com
[06:34] <asdf_> cafuego: so should i do a manual install?
[06:34] <Sutur> Yes yes I'll try it all now. Hang on.
[06:34] <cafuego> asdf_: If you ask me you shouldn't bother, but that's just me.
[06:34] <asdf_> cafuego: why's that?
[06:34] <mick_> ThinkingMan, still denied
[06:34] <ThinkingMan> hrm...
[06:35] <cafuego> asdf_: 2.0 as far as I can tell doesn't do anything 1.x doesn't do (with optional extensions)
[06:35] <kzv> !edgy
[06:35] <ubotu> edgy is the current development version of Ubuntu. Version 6.10, codename "Edgy Eft". For support head to #ubuntu+1. For its release schedule, see !schedule
[06:35] <Alakazamz0r> im going to sleep
[06:35] <cafuego> asdf_: .. and some extensions will probably break.
[06:35] <ThinkingMan> maybe you had a type while typing the password, log back into mysql as your admin user
[06:35] <Alakazamz0r> can someone please help Sutur, he's been extremely patient.
[06:35] <kzv> !schedule
[06:35] <ThinkingMan> mick_: s/type/typo
[06:35] <Alakazamz0r> !schedule
[06:35] <Sutur> Thanks.
[06:35] <ubotu> Ubuntu uses a strict timetable for releases, which means that sometimes newly released programs miss the timetable. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases for more. Edgy schedule: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyReleaseSchedule
[06:35] <mick_> ThinkingMan,  logged in
[06:35] <emmanuel_> bad dvd resolution what can I do?
[06:35] <Vaske_Car> Edgy Eft tomorrow?
[06:36] <Vaske_Car> final
[06:36] <Vaske_Car> ?
[06:36] <Alakazamz0r> yep
[06:36] <kzv> Here it's the 25th now
[06:36] <Alakazamz0r> just about.
[06:37] <Noah0504> What's a better but still simple BitTorrent client for Ubuntu?
[06:37] <Vaske_Car> hey guys enybody familiar with Samba here?
[06:37] <Sutur> Alakazamz0r: just before you go, it does the same thing as before with your DNS server, it's just slower.
[06:37] <Sutur> Still no browsing.
[06:37] <ThinkingMan> mick_: hang on a second, retard roommate in trouble
[06:37] <Alakazamz0r> hmm
[06:38] <mick_> ThinkingMan,  no worries
[06:38] <Alakazamz0r> i duno Sutur maybe your tcp/ip stack is busted.
[06:38] <Alakazamz0r> i duno man.
[06:38] <Sutur> That's OK.
[06:38] <azureal> hi, i have ubuntu 2.6.15 server edition, and I can't get my wireless to work...  first of all installing ieee80211-source does not produce anything in /usr/lib/firmware  so i'm confused =/
[06:38] <Sutur> I'll try again later.
[06:38] <Alakazamz0r> ok Sutur someone else may be able to help you
[06:39] <Alakazamz0r> have you checked ubuntuforums.com?
[06:39] <ThinkingMan> mick_: OK, update mysql.user set password = PASSWORD('mynewpass') where user = "mythtv";
[06:39] <Sutur> I can try but since the nature of the problem is a mystery, I doubt I'd get anywhere. I'm going to keep playing with the things we've been working with.
[06:40] <Sutur> Might have been close, never know.
[06:40] <jsjc> is there a new version of ubuntu comming soon?
[06:41] <GottiX> jsjc, Edgy was just released...that should be it for another 6 months...
[06:41] <jsjc> edgy?
[06:41] <jsjc> where can I find isos for that_
[06:41] <mick_> ThinkingMan,  that said it changed a row, but i flushed again and still no access
[06:41] <GottiX> I believe from the main page...
[06:42] <GottiX> theres also a link in the forum...
[06:42] <wastrel> edgy isn't released yet afaik
[06:42] <ThinkingMan> mick_: you did a flush_privileges?
[06:42] <azureal> when i try to make ieee80211, i get "/lib/modules/2.6.15-26-server/build: No such file or directory.  Stop."  anyone have exp w/ this?
[06:42] <jsjc> wastrel that is what I thought
[06:42] <mick_> ThinkingMan, this is making me feel dumb... i use a sql database everyday at work :P
[06:42] <wastrel> soon tho
[06:42] <Vaske_Car> what is new in Edgy? Any comparation chart?
[06:42] <mick_> ThinkingMan, flush privileges
[06:42] <GottiX> wastrel, are you sure? I know i saw a release announcment on the forums a few days ago
[06:43] <ThinkingMan> mick_: grant usage on (yourmythtvdb) to 'mythtv'@'localhost'; flush privileges;
[06:43] <GottiX> unless it was a fluke and im still running beta. lol they provided ISO downloads and all
[06:43] <_azrael>  Topic for #ubuntu+1: Welcome to #ubuntu+1! | Edgy Eft will be released on Oct. 26 - until then it should not be considered stable
[06:43] <wastrel> GottiX:  not yet,  sez oct 26
[06:43] <wastrel> on #ubuntu+1  topic :]
[06:43] <wastrel> ah yes
[06:43] <rbil> What's the rush to a new release when Dapper is working so fine?
[06:43] <jsjc> oooo that is tomorrowww
[06:43] <GottiX> hmmm...thats different...
[06:43] <jsjc> and my day of is today!
[06:44] <GottiX> i wonder why i saw a release announcment...
[06:44] <ThinkingMan> mick_: What sql db you use at work?
[06:44] <jsjc> ooo :( that is sad I will be another full week without ubuntu
[06:44] <mick_> ThinkingMan, microsoft
[06:44] <GottiX> i have an edgy iso..burned and im running it...no mention of "beta" anywhere...
[06:44] <ThinkingMan> mick_: sorry to hear that
[06:44] <ThinkingMan> anyway, how'd the grant usage/flush privs work?
[06:45] <rbil> GottiX and what are the advantages besides new wallpaper?
[06:45] <mick_> ThinkingMan, lol... i am getting an error on the first half
[06:45] <kzv> Gottix I'm thinking you have the RC
[06:45] <ThinkingMan> mick, what error?
[06:45] <mick_> grant usage on (yourmythtvdb) to 'mythtv'@'localhost'; flush privileges;
[06:45] <mick_> oops
[06:45] <mick_>  You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '(mythtv) to 'mythtv'@'localhost'' at line 1
[06:46] <ThinkingMan> sorry, no parens
[06:46] <GottiX> rbil, to be honest...none that are immediately noticable...then again i switched to fluxbox right after i installed whatever version of edgy i have...
[06:46] <ThinkingMan> and it'll probably want a table or two, so "grant usage on mythtv.* to 'mythtv'@'localhost';
[06:46] <dabaR_> Vaske_Car: yeah, edgyreleasenotes on the wiki in camel case
[06:46] <ThinkingMan> then flush privileges;
[06:47] <GottiX> but it seems to be relatively the same...
[06:47] <rbil> GottiX, to me ....  Linux is Linux. As long it is stable I'm in no rush to upgrade.
[06:47] <GottiX> keep in mind there were only four months inbetween dapper and edgy
[06:47] <mick_> 0 rows affected?
[06:47] <dabaR_> rbil: weird pooint of view, to me, linux is windows.
[06:47] <GottiX> rbil, im with you there.
[06:47] <ThinkingMan> mick_: that's fine, flush privs and try to log in again
[06:47] <mick_> ok
[06:47] <GottiX> dabaR_, thats weirder that rbils...
[06:47] <GottiX> lol
[06:48] <azureal> lol.... ubuntu server does not come w/ linux-headers !?
[06:48] <rbil> I'm still running Mandrake 10.1 on one of my boxes, server actually, and it never misses a beat. See no need to upgrade.
[06:48] <lotusleaf> Halloween is almost upon us, and you know that that means: clean out your closet of those spare Ubuntu Ship-It CDs you may have, duct tape a Snickers bar to them if you have to, just give them out!!
[06:48] <mick_> hooray, thank you very much!
[06:48] <azureal> lol @ lotusleaf
[06:48] <GottiX> i have so many of those things lol
[06:48] <dabaR_> azureal: there is no need for most users to compile anything on an ubuntu server is what that says
[06:48] <GottiX> i actually just put them in everyones mailboxes...
[06:48] <GottiX> illegal...i know...
[06:48] <GottiX> but hell
[06:49] <GottiX> it works.
[06:49] <ThinkingMan> mick_: enjoy
[06:49] <ThinkingMan> :)
[06:49] <Cuboid> Hi
[06:49] <azureal> dabaR, i try to make things minimal by installing ubuntu server to avoid gnome/kde/xfce but it's not easy =/
[06:49] <GottiX> azureal, grab a fluxbuntu iso
[06:49] <dabaR_> ya, I find that not easy either
[06:49] <dabaR_> too i guess
[06:49] <GottiX> thats as minimal as your gonnah get
[06:49] <azureal> GottiX, that stuff is outdated, buggy, etc blah
[06:49] <Cuboid> Can someone help me with upgrading GTK?
[06:50] <rbil> 80% of the cool stuff about Linux is in the CLI, and I don't think that's going to change.
[06:50] <joincamp> i have an nforce2 board with soundstorm.  im using nvidia drivers so i can do proper 5.1, but it appears to be only OSS compatible.  is there a way to make firefox use OSS or make the soundstorm driver output ALSA?
[06:50] <GottiX> why would you say that? i find no issues with it
[06:50] <Vaske_Car> dabaR_, check PM
[06:50] <ThinkingMan> So um... anyone know how to exclude a wifi SSID?
[06:50] <dabaR_> Cuboid: if by helping with installing gtk you mean getting you a glass of water, no I cant. ask the quewstion
[06:50] <dabaR_> Vaske_Car: I am dabaR_
[06:50] <GottiX> rbil, no doubt. which is my desktop has no icons...jsut a transparent terminal...its basically a CLI with a picture behind it...the FB menu is just a plux for me
[06:50] <azureal> it's finally making!!
[06:51] <Cuboid> Can somebody tell me how to upgrade GTK?
[06:51] <dabaR_> Vaske_Car: and unregged.
[06:51] <GottiX> well im gonnah go work on some homework...class in....8 hours! i'll be back on soon!
[06:52] <dabaR_> Vaske_Car: that means I can not reply, but ya, I talked to you before
[06:52] <ThinkingMan> anyone?
[06:52] <jsjc> anyone is able to tell me the different between the DVD and the CD of ubuntu what is included in the DVD that is no in the CD?
[06:52] <Vaske_Car> ok
[06:52] <Vaske_Car> :)
[06:52] <dabaR_> good to see ya
[06:53] <Vaske_Car> good to see ya too
[06:53] <Vaske_Car> im back to ubuntu btw
[06:53] <sexserver> hi everybody
[06:54] <iter> serversecks
[06:54] <leftjustified> hi, can anyone suggest somewhere I can get more detailed (ie: better) syntax highlighting setup for gEdit?
[06:54] <joincamp> i have an nforce2 board with soundstorm.  im using nvidia drivers so i can do proper 5.1, but it appears to be only OSS compatible.  is there a way to make firefox use OSS or make the soundstorm driver output ALSA?
[06:54] <dabaR_> sexserver: I would like some served right here
[06:54] <skullripper> hi all
[06:54] <tritium> dabaR_: cut it out
[06:55] <ThinkingMan> let's try something different
[06:55] <dabaR_> leftjustified: oh, the "better" syntax highlighting, right.
[06:55] <skullripper> i'm having a problem with some fonts in some programs
[06:55] <ThinkingMan> what does everyone use to manage their wifi in ubuntu?
[06:55] <pixelPOET> ThinkingMan, iwconfig ;)
[06:55] <azureal> brb
[06:56] <skullripper> i'm having a problem with some fonts in some programs
[06:56] <skullripper> i'm having a problem with some fonts in some programs
[06:56] <jbroome> and problems with your KB
[06:56] <leftjustified> dabaR_: sorry for not being very concise -- what I mean is more detailed than just being able to select the colour for the first <?php tag and other such things... actually, can anyone recommend a scintilla based editor packaged for ubuntu using gnome front end?
[06:56] <tonyyarusso> skullripper: Flash kinds of programs perhaps?
[06:56] <ThinkingMan> pixelPOET: have you been successful getting that to work with WPA?
[06:56] <sexserver> hey can someone help me with this??  i've installed dapper toan old ibm thinkpad 390e, and everything is running well in exception of the audio card... i've tryed breezy and it did make the audio card work, but then i loose ethernet contection...  so i was ondering... is it possible to install breezy drivers to a dapper??
[06:56] <dabaR_> leftjustified: there is a bluefish editor that people like
[06:56] <skullripper> i noticed this with two programs
[06:57] <skullripper> Xmms and Xtraceroute
[06:57] <leftjustified> dabaR_: tried it -- too cludgy :) I prefer my editor to be as light as possible, not for it to want to be dreamweaver's little brother ;)
[06:57] <pixelPOET> ThinkingMan, bah WPA and WEP have always been a pain in the ass...i gave a up on them totally
[06:57] <tonyyarusso> sexserver: You might want to take a look at the LaptopTesting pages on the wiki to see if anyone has some notes about that particular model.
[06:57] <skullripper> when i try to see the menu of XMMS
[06:57] <ThinkingMan> pixelPOET: so you're running open wifi?
[06:57] <skullripper> i see nothing
[06:58] <skullripper> the name of the songs are perfectly written
[06:58] <barnetod> hey guys what would be better for someone just getting into ubuntu, ubuntu or kubuntu? i am curious
[06:58] <skullripper> but they menu is invisible
[06:58] <tritium> barnetod: it's all preference.  Either one is great.
[06:58] <tonyyarusso> skullripper: Hmm, well,  take a look at !fonts but I don't know if it's related to your problem.
[06:58] <barnetod> whats the main diff tri
[06:59] <tonyyarusso> barnetod: Totally personal preference.  Try both.
[06:59] <tritium> barnetod: gnome or kde as the desktop env.
[06:59] <barnetod> i know it may be a beaten question just not really reading anything to different
[06:59] <dabaR_> barnetod: the wwhole desktop experience, the best is to try both
[06:59] <azureal> yay, got wireless to work  =)
[06:59] <sexserver> tonyyarusso, where is that??  i've trying for a little bit more than 3 months and noyhing...
[06:59] <azureal> it works even better than on xp partition =0
[06:59] <Vaske_Car> dabaR_, are you using Edgy?
[06:59] <skullripper> tonyyarusso, i guess is ok because every things work perfectly
[06:59] <dabaR_> no
[06:59] <tonyyarusso> sexserver: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam
[06:59] <pixelPOET> ThinkingMan, Yes...i have no problems with that...
[06:59] <Vaske_Car> wondering is it wort upgrading?
[07:00] <Vaske_Car> worth*
[07:00] <ThinkingMan> OK, well I do, so I need WPA'
[07:00] <pixelPOET> have fun...i tried everything...
[07:00] <barnetod> tony can anyone test those?
[07:00] <mnepton> ThinkingMan: sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[07:00] <pixelPOET> then again that WAS back in hoary
[07:00] <barnetod> i have a laptop not listed as tested
[07:00] <pixelPOET> they may have improved things in that area
[07:00] <anilomkar> I applied a theme to desktop, but the theme is not visible for some windows help me?
[07:00] <whyameye> I have a 2 CPU system but my understanding is that ubuntu out of the box only supports 1 CPU? How can I change this?
[07:00] <barnetod> and am tired of redhat and xp
[07:01] <pixelPOET> anilomkar, a little more info would help
[07:01] <bay-bee> whyameye: install a SMP capable kernel
[07:01] <tonyyarusso> barnetod: Yeah, just add it under "community tested", and try not to duplicate a model - collaborate if you have the same as someone else.
[07:01] <ThinkingMan> mnepton: I'm using network manager and nm-applet now, but I'm trying to exclude a SSID and network manager doesn't seem to be able to do that
[07:01] <xbow> hi all, ubuntu-server 6.06 after the installing on PC with VIA EPIA doesn't start (freezes after message: Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel).  Kernel is 2.6.15-23-server
[07:01] <whyameye> bay-bee: and how/where do I find a SMP capable kernel?
[07:02] <jbroome> !smp
[07:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about smp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:02] <rbil> xbow, just went thru that myself a couple days ago. ubuntu-server won't work. you need to get the alternative distribution and install server from there.
