[10:00] <MasterShrek> mm23, sudo ifconfig eth0 down <-disconnects    sudo ifconfig eth0 up <- connects
[10:00] <sahafeez> okay, riddle me this. the owner of that file is replaced by the uploaders (rsync) usersname on sync. it was root.users and changed to the username used for ssh
[10:00] <sahafeez> root.user becomes sahafeez.sahafeez in this case.
[10:01] <sahafeez> so then i would own it and beable to change it..
[10:01] <mm23> does does ifconfig have man command ? (man ifconfig)

[10:05] <MasterShrek> iownyou, i dont know what u mean
[10:05] <iownyou> i will really be ticked if i cant get it to work
[10:05] <zoidberg_> Whacked, what is a switch?
[10:05] <MasterShrek> its porbably something simple
[10:05] <esben_> irc.dotsrc.org
[10:05] <mm23> does Ubuntu have same as windows .bat files or someting like that ? that i can write commands for autorun in special order
[10:05] <mm23> ?
[10:06] <hwolff> hello
[10:06] <MasterShrek> iownyou, so u cant get at that file or waht?
[10:06] <zoidberg_> Whacked, if you mean like an ethernet hub....i have that
[10:06] <esben_> sorry
[10:06] <iownyou> no i cant
[10:06] <Whacked> zoidberg_: a network switch, aka hub
[10:06] <zoidberg_> Whacked, how can i do that with a hub?
[10:06] <MasterShrek> mm23, google for bash scripting

[10:07] <Whacked> zoidberg_: i'm not 100% sure on the software configuration, but i know you'll need a hub or crossover cable
[10:07] <iownyou> yes i can
[10:07] <iownyou> i can get in terminal
[10:07] <hwolff> anyone around who knows H.323 and/or ekiga?
[10:07] <zoidberg_> Whacked, I have a hub...my laptop has wireless pc access...how do i share that with the pc?
[10:07] <MasterShrek> iownyou, well irssi is a command line based client, you can use that to connect to irc
[10:07] <MasterShrek> zoidberg_, i believe u have to set up a bridge, but i dont really know how to do it
[10:08] <zoidberg_> MasterShrek, do u know where i could look?
[10:08] <iownyou> so i can talk in this chat?
[10:08] <iownyou> from that cd
[10:08] <MasterShrek> google
[10:08] <Whacked> zoidberg_: it might be as simple as manually setting the PC's ip address, and it's dns server to the laptop's ip, but i'm not sure if that will work
[10:09] <MasterShrek> iownyou, yea, it should have xchat, if it doesnt u can use that terminal based client: irssi
[10:09] <MasterShrek> iownyou, can u get into a gui on the livecd?
[10:10] <iownyou> in safe graphics mode
[10:10] <Jork> will be 7.10 LTS release?
[10:11] <MasterShrek> ok, well yea i think the livecd has xchat, a graphical irc client, u shold be able to use it
[10:11] <MasterShrek> but i really need to get to bed
[10:11] <iownyou> im prolly never going to fix this
[10:11] <iownyou> its like this with every single linux ive tried
[10:11] <MasterShrek> iownyou, its probably something simple, if it works in safe graphics mode, it will work
[10:12] <bmt> iownyou: what is your trouble ?
[10:12] <iownyou> then how can i make it so its safe graphics mode the hole time

[10:14] <netstalker_> hi guys
[10:14] <BigDaddy> IMWheel is a tool for checking mouse button assignments
[10:14] <Jork> o la la fantje
[10:14] <Jork> to je kr neki
[10:14] <Jork> :D
[10:14] <casualk> anyone out here got the right click key(found between the right Ctrl and Alt keys on some keyboards) working in ubuntu?
[10:14] <netstalker_> yeah
[10:14] <netstalker_> works for me
[10:15] <hmhowie> [nrx] : it will be different in kde. unfortunately, i don't have a kde installation atm, so i can't really help :(
[10:15] <netstalker_> right clickkey
[10:15] <BigDaddy> So far I have only left and right mouse buttons working and I have been working on this for over 12 hours (off and on)
[10:15] <[nrx] > don't seem to be able to in konquerer tho ;/
[10:15] <nox-Hand> Hey
[10:15] <casualk> did it work by default or did you need to do something?
[10:15] <iownyou> bmt : yeah this is on the start up
[10:15] <netstalker_> gutsy gibbon tribe x
[10:15] <netstalker_> or sumfing
[10:15] <BigDaddy> NRX hold on...I ran across that today...
[10:15] <netstalker_> so i guess by default
[10:15] <nox-Hand> When I boot up Ubuntu, I get all those [ 110001240.124021]  numbers up, that says stuff about usb and other things loading - like dmesg. Yet, the only last official thing without those I see is Waiting for root file system. About five seconds later it freezes and gets no further.
[10:16] <hmhowie> [nrx] : if i remember correctly, kde has a huge help center where you can configure everything
[10:16] <nox-Hand> Help?
[10:16] <netstalker_> buuut... i cant get my xchat to do any succesful file transfer
[10:16] <iownyou> BMT ARE YOU still there
[10:16] <bmt> iownyou: what have you done so far to attempt to rectify ?
[10:16] <casualk> oh i was wondering how i could enable it? (the right-click key)
[10:16] <netstalker_> update-manager -d
[10:17] <netstalker_> :)))
[10:17] <bmt> iownyou: what type of gfx do you have ?
[10:17] <netstalker_> do that
[10:17] <iownyou> ok first ive tried was going through the xserver and xorg setup
[10:17] <murlidhar_> netstalker_: perhaps u didn't update the download path
[10:17] <netstalker_> neah
[10:17] <iownyou> second changed xorg.conf file
[10:17] <netstalker_> its all set
[10:17] <[nrx] > hmhowie: that's wha ti thought but i can't find anything referencing mouse behaviour lol :/
[10:17] <netstalker_> it doesnt work in gaim either
[10:17] <bullgard4> !envy
[10:17] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[10:17] <iownyou> bmt: gfx what do you meen by that
[10:17] <bmt> iownyou: do you have desktop effects turned on ?

[10:21] <netstalker_> bye
[10:21] <iownyou> bmt did you hear what i said
[10:21] <bmt> iownyou: i see what type of gfx card you have..but what driver do you have set in your xorg.conf file ?
[10:21] <wabid> has anyone installed granparidiso and gotten really really big icons
[10:21] <am^2u> hi
[10:22] <am^2u> does ubuntu 7.04 have suppport for irda /
[10:22] <iownyou> vesa
[10:23] <iownyou> bmt :vesa
[10:23] <bmt> iownyou: you should change that to ati driver
[10:23] <iownyou> both those words?
[10:24] <am^2u> the ati dirver is fglrx right ?
[10:24] <iownyou> it should look like this? "ati driver"
[10:24] <wabid> does this look odd to anyone - http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/2474/screenshotwd5.png
[10:24] <BigDaddy> looks like you have  your zoom on
[10:24] <bmt> iownyou: it will probably look like this : 'driver' 'ati'
[10:24] <am^2u> try ctrl + -
[10:24] <am^2u> for the large icons in gran
[10:24] <wabid> ctrl +- wont change the size of the tabs
[10:25] <bmt> iownyou: under the 'device' section fo your xorg.conf file
[10:25] <iownyou> i had ati before it didnt work
[10:25] <BigDaddy> ctrl++ would only work for text, not Google images
[10:25] <wabid> yea
[10:25] <wabid> that too
[10:25] <am^2u> FF doesnt zoom images
[10:25] <BigDaddy> do you have beryl or compiz running?
[10:25] <wabid> no they dont work atm
[10:25] <am^2u> you need the zoomlike opera extension
[10:25] <wabid> but even the toolbar buttons are big
[10:25] <am^2u> hmm
[10:26] <am^2u> let me have a better look
[10:26] <BigDaddy> that is probably an accessibilty feature for the blind in GNOME
[10:26] <iownyou> bmt are you there
[10:26] <wabid> i have granparadiso-gnome installed
[10:26] <am^2u> yes could be , but then everything else would appear zoomed
[10:26] <bmt> iownyou: i am here....you really should try to use the ati driver again
[10:27] <wabid> yea the text isnt zoomed on the top toolbar
[10:27] <wabid> nor on the buttons
[10:27] <wabid> but the web text is enlarged
[10:27] <am^2u> is it only granparadiso  ?
[10:27] <wabid> yea
[10:27] <am^2u> or anyother toolbar ?
[10:27] <wabid> i have firefox running right next to it in the screenshot
[10:27] <BigDaddy> am^2u... was that the active window? Could follow focus
[10:27] <wabid> http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/2474/screenshotwd5.png
[10:27] <wabid> it doesnt
[10:27] <iownyou> dude im serious thats what i had before BMT
[10:28] <wabid> firefox is selected
[10:28] <am^2u> hmm ,could
[10:28] <LoneShadow> anyone know how to uninstall NVidia's drivers and re-install ubuntu's default drivers for nvidia cards ?
[10:28] <am^2u> i have the stable version installed
[10:28] <am^2u> i could try
[10:28] <VSpike> LoneShadow: how did you install the nvidia drivers?
[10:29] <LoneShadow> downloaded the latest driver from nvidia.com website
[10:29] <am^2u> LoneShadow, try compiling Xserver
[10:29] <am^2u> with Vesa
[10:29] <LoneShadow> but when I updated to new kernel, I forgot to update the driver. in X I de-selcted some unrestricted checkbox, now X wont start
[10:30] <stefg> LoneShadow: run the Nvidia*.sh script again with option -u / --uninstall. Reading the docu would have taught you that
[10:30] <VSpike> LoneShadow: you can switch driver by finding the line or lines in /etc/X11/xorg.conf that say  << Driver "nvidia" >> and changing it to << Driver "nv" >>
[10:30] <bmt> iownyou: are you there ?
[10:30] <VSpike> LoneShadow: but yeah what stefg said
[10:30] <iownyou> yeah im here
[10:30] <LoneShadow> stefg: and how do I install the other driver, any docs/faq/howtos for that ?
[10:30] <murkyMurk> hi, 2nd hard drive (sata) not seen in upgrade to feisty, nothing useful in forums....any ideas?
[10:31] <iownyou> bmt: im here
[10:31] <LoneShadow> VSpike: I tried switching nvidia to nv and vesa, didnt help
[10:31] <bmt> iownyou: did you try to reinstalll the ati driver ?
[10:31] <stefg> LoneShadow: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic nvidia-glx-new .
[10:31] <LoneShadow> am I supposed to have some nvidia packages installed ?
[10:32] <VSpike> LoneShadow: can you be more specific about "didn't help" ... what problem did you get?  X failed to start?
[10:32] <VSpike> murkyMurk: if you do "sudo fdisk -l" can you see the drive?
[10:32] <LoneShadow> VSpike: X complains about NVidia's API version mismatch
[10:32] <iownyou> no
[10:32] <iownyou> thats what i had it as before
[10:32] <murkyMurk> nope, fdisk -l only shows hda drives
[10:32] <iownyou> ill go do it
[10:33] <wabid> can i convert .run files to .deb
[10:33] <VSpike> LoneShadow: even when you change the driver to vesa??
[10:33] <stefg> wabid: you could, but not automagically... :-)

[10:34] <LoneShadow> VSpike: yes, for some reason I was missing nvidia-glx-new, installing it now
[10:35] <murkyMurk> VSpike: drive not shown fdisk -l. rebooting to earlier edgy install shows it up fine
[10:35] <stefg> murkyMurk: inspect dmesg to get a clue what's going on
[10:35] <wabid> whats the easiest way to run it then
[10:36] <stefg> wabid: what are you trying to do?
[10:36] <murkyMurk> NVRM api mismatch....feisty was upgrade from edgy...hang over from NVidia driver?
[10:36] <BigDaddy> Jesus, I just do not understand these mouse configs
[10:36] <wabid> install the ati driver from their site, and see if it makes a difference
[10:36] <BigDaddy> Is there anyone here who has a multibutton mouse?
[10:36] <wabid> bigdaddy i do on my laptop
[10:36] <stefg> !ati | wabid
[10:36] <ubotu> wabid: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:37] <wabid> i have it installed
[10:37] <wabid> it works fine
[10:37] <MenZa> BigDaddy: which mouse?
[10:37] <wabid> but compiz doesnt work
[10:37] <wabid> i have a ibm with 3 buttons
[10:37] <BigDaddy> wabid, is it the touchpad or a true mouse?
[10:37] <wabid> touchpad
[10:37] <wabid> i can grab a real one
[10:37] <BigDaddy> damn, sorry that can't help me
[10:38] <BigDaddy> MenZa, I have a Micro Innovations mouse
[10:38] <wabid> why im pretty sure it thinks its a 3 button mouse
[10:38] <BigDaddy> generic POS IMO
[10:38] <wabid> cuz i can middle click
[10:38] <stefg> wabid: ati and compiz are always a pita... see if the guys in #ubuntu-effects can help you. MAKE A BACKUP NOW! you never know what's going to break by messing with not officially supoorted Ati-drivers
[10:38] <lordofthepigs> how can I disable automount on my ubuntu liveCD
[10:38] <BigDaddy> Te mouse I have has left click, scroll wheel, right click, thumb, and pinky buttons.
[10:38] <wabid> im starting to think it just wont work with atis drivers atm
[10:38] <lordofthepigs> I cannot use GParted in any useful way because ubuntu insists on auto-mounting all the partitions on my hard drive
[10:39] <BigDaddy> That is a total of 7 "buttons"
[10:39] <lordofthepigs> whereas I basically want all partitions to be deleted
[10:39] <BigDaddy> fractal?
[10:39] <wabid> use gparted live cd
[10:39] <BigDaddy> fract.designs fractal?
[10:39] <fractal2> no no
[10:39] <BigDaddy> damn
[10:39] <BigDaddy> you know him fractal2?
[10:39] <fractal2> i wish :(
[10:40] <BigDaddy> he's a litestep bud of mine
[10:40] <BigDaddy> just haven't seen him in a while
[10:40] <stefg> lordofthepigs: yeah, that's a major stupidity in ubuntu.... just start gparted, and unmaount all drives again after you started it
[10:40] <fractal2> darn, i just came up with this name at random
[10:40] <fractal2> maybe i saw his name somewhere before
[10:40] <Extravert> damn does anyone have a cure for my cerebralgia? cervical collar?
[10:40] <BigDaddy> Looks like I am the only one who noticed. Run with it
[10:41] <murkyMurk> ATA abnormal status 0x7F on port yahyah.......sata_nv borked on 2.16.20?
[10:41] <Symian> Hi - I just recently upgraded from 7.04 to 7.10, and apparently the package "rt2x00" was removed, which I desperately need in order to have internet access. The package definitely comes on the 7.04 cd I have. How can I install it from the CD, to get a wireless connection back?
[10:41] <BigDaddy> Anyways, back to my bitching...The mouse I have has left click, scroll wheel, right click, thumb, and pinky buttons.
[10:41] <Symian> Which makes my question: how can I install a package directly from a CD, rather than downloading it?
[10:41] <LoneShadow> now with NV as driver, it says "Unable to find valid framebuffer device"
[10:42] <stefg> lordofthepigs: a, and FYI ... do a backup. in my experience gParted does more often leave you with a broken system than not, after being painfully slow in bre3aking your system :-)
[10:42] <LoneShadow> is there a default xorg.conf ?
[10:42] <BigDaddy> I have my xorg.conf done ( I think) but now I have to have a imwheelrc file done as well. Anyone done that before?
[10:42] <Jwh424> nvidia 8 series needs more support from ubuntu
[10:42] <dgjones> Symian, you'd be better asking in #ubuntu+1, they're the ones dealing with support for the Gutsy testing versions
[10:42] <wabid> yea gparted isnt perfect, but i think i would trust it to delete everything off the drive
[10:42] <stefg> Jwh424: there's nvidia-glx-legacy
[10:42] <Symian> dgjones, thanks.
[10:43] <BigDaddy> LoneShadow, there will be a default for your system, but not a general default for everyone
[10:43] <Madnez> !ntfs
[10:43] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[10:43] <dgjones> Symian, no probs, you may have to be patient, there's not always many people in that channel though
[10:43] <stefg> !gutsy | Symian
[10:43] <ubotu> Symian: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10) | (due October 2007) | It is development software, as such unstable, support _only_ in #ubuntu+1
[10:43] <Symian> dgjones, off the top of your head, is there a way to install a package from a cd, though?
[10:44] <LoneShadow> BigDaddy: so If I dont have a good backup of xorg.conf, I will to fix to things manually ?
[10:44] <BigDaddy> Symian - just add the CD to your repositories
[10:44] <Jwh424> stefg, does it support the latest series 8
[10:44] <murkyMurk> anyone any wiser as to why feisty is ignoring my sata drive but edgy sees it fine (both i386 default kernels(
[10:44] <BigDaddy> you can just reconfigure X
[10:44] <LoneShadow> was hoping I could back to default video settings, just like when I had installed ubuntu for the first time
[10:44] <Symian> BigDaddy, I did do that, but it always tries to download something from the internet.
[10:45] <dgjones> Symian, I wouldn't like to suggest anything with you having installed gutsy but trying to use a package from the Feisty cd
[10:45] <BigDaddy> # dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:45] <LoneShadow> thanks, will give it a try now
[10:45] <wabid> is there an easy way to whitelist a driver for compiz then
[10:45] <stefg> Symian: chances are that it won't help.... one kernel upgrade and you are where you are now... Gutsy is in development, so things break because not all packages are updated in sync
[10:45] <BigDaddy> you did that and it tried to download?
[10:45] <wabid> if thats a better way to ask
[10:45] <BigDaddy> you may need to sudo that of course
[10:46] <Symian> stefg: I understand why you say that, because that IS the reason you do beta releases, but I'm very "deep" in this issue and I know that all I need to do is to install the rt2x00 package.
[10:46] <Madnez> guys
[10:46] <BigDaddy> Symian, you still there?
[10:46] <Madnez> what drive format can be read by windows other than fat 32?
[10:46] <Symian> BigDaddy, um, yes.
[10:46] <Symian> Oh, I see. yes.
[10:46] <Madnez> i want NTFS but it does not allow me to partition my drive as ntfs
[10:47] <Symian> I'm on a seperate laptop.
[10:47] <Madnez> !partition
[10:47] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[10:47] <Madnez> !fstab
[10:47] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[10:47] <BigDaddy> I just wanted to remind you if you did not know already that you would be leaving the GUI and would have to restart it.
[10:47] <stefg> Jwh424: i misunderstood... i thought you were talking about the old 8. series *drivers* , not the 8000 *card* series
[10:48] <Jwh424> stefg, that's ok...can I install an older driver.  wonder will it work
[10:48] <Symian> BigDaddy, wait, I'm reading back - why would restarting X fix this issue?
[10:49] <BigDaddy> First off, what is your issue? Video resolution?
[10:50] <Kaur> If I have laptop-mode-tools installed do i need laptop-mode?
[10:50] <Symian> BigDaddy, what? No. The issue is that I need to install the rt2x00 package in order to get internet access.
[10:50] <DaveE_> hello, u have a question.. could anybody tell me, how can i untar a .tar.bz2 package?
[10:50] <Symian> BigDaddy, but obviously, I can't use the internet to do that install.
[10:50] <BigDaddy> xorg.conf contains your video res info, keyboard, mouse, screen...
[10:51] <BigDaddy> I'm quoteing here -   LoneShadow:  BigDaddy: so If I dont have a good backup of xorg.conf, I will to fix to things manually ?
[10:51] <DaveE_> i have bzip2 installed...
[10:51] <murkyMurk> tar -xjvf <file.bz2> isn't it
[10:51] <rausb0> DaveE_: tar xjf file.tar.bz2
[10:51] <BigDaddy> you asked me about your xorg.conf file. Not about netowrking
[10:52] <DaveE_> thnx :D
[10:52] <Symian> BigDaddy, I am not Loneshadow.
[10:52] <Symian> BigDaddy, you're talking to someone else, maybe?
[10:52] <zoidberg_> hey guys how do i check what my network card WIRELESS is in the terminal?
[10:52] <BigDaddy> jesus,,, I am sorry man
[10:52] <rausb0> zoidberg_: pci or usb?
[10:53] <zoidberg_> pci
[10:53] <rausb0> zoidberg_: lspci, iwconfig
[10:53] <murkyMurk> zoidberg_ iwconfig
[10:53] <BigDaddy> you answered me when I was talking to LoneShadow, and I just kept going
[10:53] <DaveE_> i have untared a theme.. now i donw know how to install it? it iis for KDE
[10:53] <lordofthepigs> Oh, and I have servel external USB HDDs, which used to work fine with ubuntu, but for the last few weeks, ubuntu refuses to recognize them at all
[10:53] <BigDaddy> Anyways,  you are wanting the CD reposittory right?
[10:54] <lordofthepigs> do you have any idea where this can come from?
[10:54] <murkyMurk> zoidberg_: iwconfig
[10:54] <lordofthepigs> WindowsXP has no problem recognizing those drives, and they work just fine
[10:55] <BigDaddy> Symian - open up Synaptic -> Settings -> Repositories
[10:55] <BigDaddy> It walks you through it from there. Just add the disc in the drive
[10:56] <stefg> lordofthepigs: did you mess with the kernel?
[10:56] <Symian> BigDaddy - like I said earlier, I did check to use the cdrom. That worked fine. But when I go to install the package, it still uses the internet.
[10:56] <lordofthepigs> er nope
[10:57] <lordofthepigs> that's too scary for me :)
[10:57] <BigDaddy> Did you remove the internet repositories?
[10:57] <CorpseFeeder> how do these LIRC things work? I have a IrDA port... and LIRC plugins... what do I do now?
[10:57] <Symian> BigDaddy - let me give that a shot
[10:57] <BigDaddy> If it is still there, it will continue to try and access the internet whether there is a connection or not
[10:57] <stefg> lordofthepigs: so what happened that made the kernel/udev/hal stop recognising everything that is scsi related ?
[10:58] <BigDaddy> It's like back in the day when AOL would try and connect the dial up when all you wanted was info from the address book
[10:58] <dn4> any thoughts on a mp3 mixing piece of software that allows the end user to hook it up to midi controller?
[10:58] <Symian> BigDaddy, after inserting the disk and adding the disk as a repository and then deleting the internet repositories, I then hit "Reload" and it generates an error: "please use apt-cdrom"
[10:58] <CorpseFeeder> any here know anything about configuring these LIRC things ???
[10:59] <lordofthepigs> oh, this is unrelated to my previous question
[10:59] <lordofthepigs> stefg: the previous question was about one of the comps at work, and that one is for my own laptop
[10:59] <murkyMurk> CorpseFeeder: hunt on google for LiRC in mythtv howtos
[10:59] <stefg> dn4: ask #ubuntustudio?
[11:00] <BigDaddy> you are using the CLI and not Synaptic?
[11:00] <dn4> stefg, already did
[11:00] <Symian> BigDaddy, i'm using Synaptic.
[11:00] <CyberMad> i have problem with my soundcard (microphone), after install ubuntu, then skype.. i test the microphone and it works.. but right now there is problem with the mic, can not record the sound. Then i tried use windows, but microphone is okay... how to detect and fix the problem?
[11:01] <Symian> BigDaddy, though when I use the CLI it does the same thing.
[11:01] <CyberMad> i don't want re-install ubuntu
[11:01] <CyberMad> i use ubuntu 7.04
[11:01] <stefg> !skype
[11:01] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[11:02] <BigDaddy> hmmm....
[11:02] <murkyMurk> CyberMad: alsamixer and up mic boost, make sure mic1/mic2 is set correctly
[11:02] <Chousuke> heh
[11:02] <CyberMad> stefg btw how to test my microphone without skype ?
[11:02] <Chousuke> don't boost the mic too much though
[11:03] <stefg> CyberMad: just use the audio recorder from the multimedia menu.
[11:03] <BigDaddy> wait wait wait.... you are trying to instal a file right?
[11:03] <CyberMad> i tried sound recorder software that included in ubuntu, but can not record any sound.. well i think this is software problem, because on other computer that have no problem with the mic, can not record sound too
[11:03] <murkyMurk> CyberMad: see alsamixer post above
[11:04] <stefg> CyberMad: what does cat /proc/asound/cards turn up ?
[11:06] <BigDaddy> Symian - what file is this you need?
[11:06] <dooglus> all file accesses are going very slowly.  is there something like 'top' for disks?
[11:06] <wabid> how can i set the resolution of the login screen
[11:06] <Symian> BigDaddy - the package for "rt2x00"
[11:06] <stefg> !fixres | wabid
[11:06] <ubotu> wabid: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:06] <Symian> BigDaddy - sorry, to your earlier question, yes, I just need to install one single package.
[11:06] <wabid> my desktop resolution is fine
[11:07] <wabid> its only the login screen
[11:07] <blaatert> is it possible to set a custom layerbreak for dvd+r dl in k3b ?
[11:07] <stefg> wabid: first read, then argue :-), ok ?
[11:07] <BigDaddy>  Symian:and you cannot apt-get from the terminal
[11:07] <wabid> sorry
[11:07] <brownie17> using the following command to encode a movie into ipod format, it tells me 'at least one output file must be specified'.

[11:07] <Symian> BigDaddy - tell me how?
[11:07] <BigDaddy> is there a deb package around?
[11:08] <wabid> got one of those for !fixgranparadiso-giantfuckingbuttons
[11:08] <Symian> BigDaddy - I dunno, is there? How would I find out?
[11:08] <tuntun> Hi.
[11:08] <brownie17> tuntun, hi
[11:08] <BigDaddy> you know, all I see are source packages
[11:08] <murkyMurk> still no sata drive in fiesty...anyone know what is fubared in 2.6.20-16 re sata?
[11:09] <CyberMad> stefg wait a second..
[11:09] <emman> where could i find a driver for linux duocore processor?
[11:09] <Symian> BigDaddy - ok, is that wrong?
[11:10] <blaatert> is it possible to set a custom layerbreak for dvd+r dl in k3b ???
[11:10] <BigDaddy> no it is not wrong, it is just more involved and difficult for new users
[11:10] <macsim> hi, I try to made backuppc works, I use a dhcp with dns, in the /etc/backuppc/hosts I add one client like "manu  1   rescue", but when I try to start full backup I have this message: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38438/
[11:10] <CyberMad> murkyMurk where is place to see alsamixer? Preferences - Sounds ?
[11:10] <wabid> i kinda wanna argue now
[11:11] <BigDaddy> apt-get won't install them though. All it will do is give you the sources. you would have to compile them then install them.
[11:11] <murkyMurk> CyberMad:  it's a command that you type in to a terminal
[11:11] <tuntun> I'm trying to write a script that:1.Gives a list of all files and directories recursively in /boot 2.pipes the filenames to "stat" to get name/type/size/ctime/mtime (I can't use "ls" because it can only output one time per-file) 3.pipes ctime/mtime to "date" to reformat it (using the "--date=" option to specify the date/time as opposed to the current time) and finally outputs name/type/size/ctime/mtime to file.out. I want to get it to look exactly like this(h
[11:11] <wabid> 1920x1200 isnt even an option
[11:11] <Symian> BigDaddy, ok, then, is that as simple as a ./configure && ./make && ./make install?
[11:11] <murkyMurk> still swearing at useless feisty here
[11:12] <BigDaddy> well then, you are better than I. I can't compile shit
[11:12] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:12] <justinhe> there are more people than debian channel
[11:12] <wabid> i set my resolution from screen resolution not screen and graphics
[11:12] <brownie17> BigDaddy, compiling most software is almost as simple as install a .deb
[11:13] <wabid> it didnt change anything it xorg.config
[11:13] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:13] <BigDaddy> I would just do: sudo apt-get rt2xoo-source
[11:13] <brownie17> BigDaddy, that's just about the one thing i CAN do on a linux system]
[11:13] <BigDaddy> then take it from there
[11:13] <CyberMad> i did: cat /proc/asound/cards and it return: 0 [NVidia] : HDA-Intel - HDA NVidia
[11:13] <CyberMad> HDA NVidia at 0xf5000000 irq 16
[11:13] <stefg> CyberMad: ah.... there's known issues with that hardware
[11:13] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:13] <wabid> stefg still having problems
[11:13] <stefg> !intelhda | CyberMad
[11:13] <ubotu> CyberMad: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[11:14] <Symian> BigDaddy - I'll tell you how that goes in a second
[11:14] <Symian> Thanks.
[11:14] <BigDaddy> yeah, I will need to wake up the family in a bit
[11:14] <wabid> my desktop boots to 1920x1200, which is nowhere to be found in xorg.conf
[11:14] <BigDaddy> Plus I still haven't figured outt this greek mouse config crap
[11:15] <stefg> wabid: that's probably autodetected. So what do want to achieve ?
[11:16] <murkyMurk> serves me right for trusting 'ubuntu-update' GUI. damn buggy PoS spends its whole life in error mode
[11:16] <zetheroo> when will Ubuntu have the new ATI opensource drivers?
[11:16] <tuntun> I hope this is the right place for my question...
[11:16] <Symian> BigDaddy, error: "Couldn't find package rt2x00-source"

[11:23] <stefg> wabid: so you're using fglrx ?
[11:23] <wabid> yes
[11:23] <wabid> and last time the problem was xserver-xgl

[11:23] <wabid> it wont boot after that
[11:24] <wabid> it goes into recovery mode
[11:24] <stefg> wabid: then you made a mistake, or the driver is buggy

[11:35] <BurnAlting> what hardware raid hba's are supported on 7.04 ... I have been searching the web and there are SUGGESTIONS that Adaptec's ServeRAID, LSI's megaraid may work but I get the impression it's a case of 'suck it and see'
[11:35] <rausb0> iownyou: you don't have ati driver now, you have vesa
[11:36] <justinhe> thanks very much, i want to use WLan under text mode
[11:36] <stefg> BurnAlting: Really want a hardware raid ?
[11:36] <BurnAlting> stefg - yes I do
[11:36] <iownyou> thats before i did ati
[11:37] <iownyou> i cant  access the xorg anymore
[11:37] <rausb0> iownyou: so you are logged in on the text console at the moment?
[11:37] <iownyou> (im on widows xp professional right now)
[11:38] <adamh> A bug I created (bug #36005 -- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opensp/+bug/36005) has just been marked "invalid" because there has been no activity for 60 days. How can I get this bug fixed, aside from taking over maintainership of its package?
[11:38] <rausb0> iownyou: widows :)
[11:38] <iownyou> lol
[11:38] <chanakya> I want to download some marketing video for ubuntu ?
[11:38] <adamh> Or at the very least, how can I take it out of "Invalid" status?
[11:38] <chanakya> Any link
[11:38] <chanakya> I want to download some marketing video for ubuntu ? Any link ?
[11:38] <stefg> BurnAlting: i don't know one which is guarenteed to work, but seeing !hardware and asking #ubuntu-server might get you further
[11:39] <adamh> (I already wrote the solution to the bug back in April)
[11:39] <CorpseFeeder> I'm looking at this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Install_Lirc_Feisty and I'm completely and utterly lost. I haven't a clue how I'm supposed to know what modules to pick to build or anything... It just says "choose your modules" and I am presented with a list of meaningless items. What do I do?
[11:39] <BurnAlting> stefg - thanks will go to ubuntu-server
[11:39] <iownyou> rausb0 : are you there
[11:39] <iownyou> rausb0 : so do you think you can help me
[11:40] <piranesi> what's the name of this desklet (at the bottom, osx style)? http://www.lynucs.org/index.php?screen_id=51724851746c0624079f1c&p=screen
[11:40] <rausb0> iownyou: i edit the xorg.conf and paste it back, wait
[11:40] <stefg> BurnAlting: just for interest: Why do you want hardware raid? I consider that an outdated concept ...
[11:40] <iownyou> ok thansk
[11:42] <CorpseFeeder> I got as far as picking the SIR module to build, but then it's asking me for ACTISYS_ACT200L, TEKRAM or other.... I don't know what to pick or how to find that info out....
[11:42] <rausb0> iownyou: http://<IP_ADDRESS>:28833/
[11:42] <Madnez> crap this sucks!
[11:42] <CorpseFeeder> How do I know what my IRDA port is?
[11:42] <[nrx] > piranesi: i can't remember the name, but i downloaded it once from gnome-look.org
[11:42] <iownyou> stefg : i have raid devices does raid not work with linuc
[11:43] <Madnez> someone tell me how come when i partition my drive, i cant access it?
[11:43] <void^> real raid works, software raid works, fakeraid does not always fake as expected ;)
[11:43] <CorpseFeeder> I can't find any info about it in hardware information.. or at least I don't know what to look for...
[11:43] <Madnez> i got a new 300 gig drive. partitioned it to linux 3 format and now i dont have access to add files into it!
[11:43] <piranesi> [nrx] , do you remember if it is a new version of avant window? Currently I have gdesklet starter bar but it is not so cute :)
[11:43] <rausb0> iownyou: i hope it will work. cannot test it here, i have no ati
[11:43] <Madnez> it locked me out!
[11:44] <`Cube> how do I run RUN files?
[11:44] <stefg> iownyou: of course raid works with linux.... but there a many ways to choose from how to implement the raid. Either in hardware, or by software
[11:44] <savvas> `Cube: chmod +x file.run && ./file.run
[11:44] <[nrx] > piranesi: sorry, i can't remember - it was a while ago :(
[11:44] <rausb0> iownyou: i changed the monitor timings to fixed 60 hz vertical refresh, which should suit best for a tft
[11:44] <savvas> `Cube: don't forget to use sudo if it needs super-duper cow powers :)
[11:44] <iownyou> rausb0 : i have no access to my linux drives im on xp how do i overwrite the xorg.conf file
[11:45] <Madnez> guys
[11:45] <Madnez> i have no access to the partitioned drives
[11:45] <sobersabre> hi guys.
[11:45] <savvas> iownyou: use the driver from http://www.fs-driver.org/
[11:45] <USMarine> iownyou there's a thing called ext3explorer or something
[11:45] <sobersabre> where can I see up-to-date translation state of gutsy ?
[11:45] <Madnez> someone explain why cant i use my other drives?
[11:45] <rausb0> iownyou: can you copy the file to a usb stick and then boot linux, copying the file to /etc/X11 from there?
[11:46] <piranesi> [nrx] , no problem, I will do some search :)
[11:46] <savvas> Madnez: we're not fortune tellers, what where you doing and you're not able to access/use any of your drivers
[11:46] <iownyou> yeah but i used text base install
[11:46] <Madnez> ok, i just bought a new drive and partitioned it to a few sectors
[11:46] <rausb0> iownyou: even if X doesnt start, you can do that in text mode. got enough shell knowledge to do that?
[11:46] <Madnez> around 100 gig each
[11:46] <padski> Is there apt-listbugs integration for synaptic ?
[11:46] <USMarine> Madnez better to use a LVM imo
[11:47] <savvas> Madnez: did you format the partitions to ext3?
[11:47] <Madnez> after that i'm totally locked out from adding any files to these drives and i need to be the root user
[11:47] <Madnez> yeah
[11:47] <Madnez> ext3 all
[11:47] <stefg> !permissions | Madnez
[11:47] <ubotu> Madnez: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[11:48] <Madnez> ....
[11:48] <Madnez> you're joking
[11:48] <rausb0> iownyou: you can also use irc in text mode. sudo apt-get install irssi  and then  irssi -c irc.freenode.net   then  /j #ubuntu
[11:48] <Madnez> i gotta manually config all again?
[11:48] <stefg> Madnez: you need to change ownership and permissions to make the drives accessible for ordinary users
[11:48] <Madnez> i am the admin
[11:48] <USMarine> root*
[11:48] <Madnez> i still gotta sudo the drives?
[11:48] <USMarine> no
[11:49] <Madnez> i have no clue how to go about this...
[11:49] <stefg> Madnez: being admin doesn't mean you are root all the time... you only /explicitly/ gain superuser privs with sudo for each command
[11:49] <iownyou> omg i cant fix this
[11:49] <Madnez> why doesnt it just gives me root permission for the drives?
[11:49] <iownyou> this almost makes me not wanna do it
[11:50] <rausb0> iownyou: why?
[11:50] <feabura> Guys I dist upgraded to feisty but I noticed all my initscripts are gone, so upgrade didn`t complete. Cos it can`t make invoke-rc.d start or stop. Any idea about that???
[11:50] <Madnez> .... what an annoyance
[11:50] <iownyou> i cant use that driver from http://www.fs-driver.org/
[11:50] <stefg> Madnez: read the link ubotu gave you on peremissions to learn the concept
[11:50] <Madnez> yeah reading.... long work
[11:50] <slap> how do i add a command to be executed in boot time?
[11:50] <savvas> Madnez: you probably have to change owner, the chown command can be useful
[11:50] <rausb0> iownyou: why not boot into linux? you can do without X for the moment
[11:51] <USMarine> !runlevels
[11:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about runlevels - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:51] <stefg> Madnez: yeah reading and learning ... that's required to understand a different OS from waht windows is
[11:51] <rausb0> iownyou: when the monitor freq goes out of range, just switch to text console with ctrl-alt-f1 and log in there.
[11:51] <Madnez> its not the reading and learning part... its the commands!
[11:51] <savvas> stefg: that's actually required for every operating system :p
[11:51] <iownyou> i forget my login info
[11:51] <Madnez> user@host?
[11:51] <rausb0> iownyou: then run irssi and get back here
[11:51] <iownyou> from doing so much stuff
[11:51] <Madnez> so its xxx@host?
[11:51] <rausb0> iownyou: oh...
[11:52] <iownyou> i remember the password
[11:52] <`Cube> thanks savva
[11:52] <rausb0> iownyou: but not the username?
[11:52] <savvas> Madnez: ok what's the folder you mounted the drive?
[11:52] <stefg> savvas: sure... that was more targetted at the 'why is Linux different from windows?' attitude
[11:52] <iownyou> but not the yeah
[11:52] <yellow_chicken> for this command "ls -al | grep -i "something" ", it does a search query.  i have an ftp website, is there a way to query it?
[11:52] <savvas> stefg: oh.. I couldn't agree more then
[11:52] <savvas> :)
[11:52] <Madnez> its on my user folder
[11:52] <rausb0> iownyou: do you can run the ubuntu livecd?
[11:52] <savvas> Madnez: full path to the mounted folder
[11:52] <Madnez> savvas, why doesnt it just give me root as initial?
[11:53] <vsayikiran> stefg: i have created a directory under my /home/username directory and set ownership to root account. then from my user account i am able to delete the folder which was created by root, how is this possible
[11:53] <iownyou> i have a ubuntu text based install disc not live cd
[11:53] <kbrooks> Madnez, ubuntu != windows
[11:53] <iownyou> should i download a live cd
[11:53] <Madnez> savvas xxx/drive1
[11:53] <kbrooks> vsayikiran, easy, see...
[11:53] <Madnez> yeah but still i mean its easier giving root after formatting drive
[11:53] <kbrooks> vsayikiran, ls -l dir
[11:53] <Madnez> then readjusting as desired
[11:53] <iownyou> oh and did i metion that i can get ubuntu to work in safe graphics mode
[11:54] <mscava> hello, i'm trying to install ubuntu 7.04 feisty fawn from the live cd
[11:54] <savvas> Madnez: the general basic command to change owners is: chown -R yourusername:yourgroup path/to/your/mounted/drive1
[11:54] <stefg> vsayikiran: it still belonged to your users /group/ and had group write permissions
[11:54] <rausb0> iownyou: hmm, would take a while
[11:54] <iownyou> i know
[11:54] <iownyou> thats what im saying
[11:54] <mscava> it fails to boot with something like: can't access tty;
[11:54] <rausb0> iownyou: how do you connect to internet with your machine? simply dhcp and this it it?
[11:54] <vsayikiran> kbrooks: ls -l /home/username/test is drwx------ root root
[11:54] <Madnez> how do i determine my group?
[11:54] <savvas> Madnez: in ubuntu username and group are the same basically, so an example would be: sudo chown -R madnez:madnez /media/drive1
[11:55] <Madnez> thanks
[11:55] <iownyou> yeah
[11:55] <vsayikiran> lskbrooks: ls -l /home/username is drwxr-xr-x username username
[11:55] <mscava> in casper.log I see, that 4 partition were not mounted
[11:55] <iownyou> rausb0 :  yeah thats correct
[11:55] <filip89> hi, i have toshiba laptop with sound card realtek id 268, and i have any sound. My sound didn`t work at feisty, and also doesn`t work at gutsy
[11:55] <rausb0> iownyou: good. do you have a cd-r there? i can give you a small (35mb) live cd
[11:56] <chanakya> I want to download some marketing video for ubuntu ? Any link ?
[11:56] <stefg> chanakya: ask #ubuntu-marketing ?
[11:56] <vsayikiran> kbroooks: if test folder was owned by root, how could i delete it
[11:56] <rausb0> iownyou: please join #ra-help
[11:56] <Madnez> thanks a TON guys
[11:56] <iownyou> yeah i can grab one real quick
[11:56] <savvas> Madnez: btw, this was taken from chown --help :)
[11:56] <iownyou> in free node
[11:56] <rausb0> iownyou: yes
[11:56] <Madnez> .... just now i had to reinstall ubuntu 2x
[11:57] <iownyou> k
[11:57] <chanakya> stefg: they all seems sleeping :P
[11:57] <savvas> Madnez: why's that?
[11:57] <Madnez> first i installed it then used gpartition
[11:57] <chanakya> stefg: you guys must be knowing some video downloads site ?
[11:57] <Madnez> then i tried disk label
[11:57] <savvas> Madnez: I'd prefer the gparted package
[11:57] <Madnez> yeah
[11:57] <Madnez> gparted
[11:58] <Madnez> i first allocated 60gig x 2
[11:58] <Madnez> + main and swap = max
[11:58] <Madnez> without using extedned
[11:58] <feabura> Where can I find default initscripts like start or stop?
[11:58] <Madnez> after that i removed the 2 60 gig and tried to max out space... didnt work
[11:58] <Madnez> i got one 60 gig removed but the second kept mounting....
[11:59] <chanakya> feabura: /etc/init.d/rc.d
[11:59] <Madnez> so everytime i tried setting 100 gig, it goes half way then dies......
[11:59] <savvas> Madnez: I partition my extra drives in a live cd mode, keeps the root intact :P
[11:59] <Madnez> after that fiddled more and system was screwed up somehow.... so reinstalled and used installation disc to partition
[11:59] <Madnez> yeah
[11:59] <Madnez> i shoulda done that
[11:59] <savvas> well is working at least now?
[11:59] <feabura> chanakya: I mean if they`re not there
[11:59] <Madnez> live seems to be more stable
[12:00] <savvas> `Cube: no problem :)
[12:00] <Madnez> anyway thanks.... need to get nourishment
[12:00] <Madnez> brb
[12:00] <savvas> take care
[12:01] <chanakya> feabura: Huh , means
[12:01] <chanakya> feabura: What specific you want ?
[12:02] <filip89> need help, i have no sound
[12:03] <feabura> chanakya: I dist upgraded to feisty but I noticed all my initscripts are gone, so upgrade didn`t complete. Cos it can`t make invoke-rc.d start or stop. They`re not in /etc/init,d Any idea about that???
[12:03] <savvas> filip89: using which application?
[12:04] <kanzie> where do I discuss compiz-fusion?
[12:04] <vsayikiran> heguru: are you there
[12:04] <savvas> filip89: hit ALT-F2 and run this: gnome-volume-control
[12:04] <savvas> filip89: check file > change device. if there is another device, try with the second device listed, see if that helps
[12:05] <filip89> no i tried it
[12:05] <chanakya> feabura: the initscripts doesn`t come in one single package
[12:05] <savvas> filip89: the volume's not in mute?
[12:05] <chanakya> feabura: it`s installed individually by applications
[12:05] <filip89> savvas: no
[12:06] <jason__> ubuntu
[12:06] <savvas> filip89: ok try this in gnome terminal: sudo apt-get install --reinstall alsa-base
[12:06] <stefg> !effects | kanzie
[12:06] <ubotu> kanzie: For help or discussion on Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects
[12:06] <filip89> savvas: i reinstaled it several times
[12:06] <chanakya> feabura: if you know which applications initscripts you want you can do a dpkg-recunfigure <package name> to reinstall init scripts
[12:06] <savvas> filip89: what are you trying to hear? mp3 file with totem?
[12:07] <stefg> filip89: what does cat /proc/asound/cards turn up ?
[12:08] <spooner> hey
[12:08] <filip89> hda-intel
[12:08] <BobSapp> Does anyone know the package name to install mod perl?
[12:08] <spooner> how can i remove a package using apt-get and force it to remove even if the post removal scripts fall over?
[12:08] <stefg> !intelhda | filip89
[12:08] <ubotu> filip89: For fixing your Intel HDA sound this page has useful information https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto
[12:09] <savvas> hm weird, how come mine plays
[12:09] <stefg> savvas: YMMV
[12:09] <spooner> or.. how can i find out where the uninstall scripts for a package?
[12:09] <savvas> true
[12:10] <GNine> heh
[12:11] <feabura> chanakya: I think they`re default inits like start or stop. Maybe they come with kernel I`m not sure

[12:18] <un_dave> could someone help me with updating my nic drivers?
[12:19] <un_dave> i've downloaded the drivers from here: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=5&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false
[12:19] <un_dave> and i'm looking a the instructions now.
[12:20] <NiceGuyUK> anyone know how to access a UDF format DVD on Feisty?
[12:20] <robink> NiceGuyUK: mount -t udf doesn't work?
[12:20] <robink> <-- Ubuntu newbie, but familiar with Debian as well as other distros.
[12:21] <un_dave> GNine: just chip it... dont software mod
[12:21] <spooner> stefg, no deal with dpkg :( do you know where the uninstall scripts would reside? i will try haxing them up
[12:21] <GNine> i like messing with microsoft
[12:21] <GNine> so i do soft mods
[12:21] <GNine> :-P
[12:21] <un_dave> i've done a fair few chip installs. they're easy and cheap
[12:22] <GNine> tru.. but still.. thats offtopic here..
[12:22] <un_dave> indeed it is.
[12:22] <GNine> heh
[12:22] <un_dave> you don't know how to install a network driver on ubuntu do yo ?
[12:22] <NiceGuyUK> robink: yeah, that works. It just didn't work automatically, it automounted as iso9660
[12:22] <stefg> spooner: look at /var/lib/dpkg/info ... not sure, tho
[12:22] <GNine> i actually dont..
[12:23] <un_dave> bummer.
[12:23] <lalala> any 1 who can help with my problem ?
[12:23] <stefg> !anyone
[12:23] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[12:23] <GNine> before i could actually set xserver properly i was already connected to my network
[12:24] <lalala> i did
[12:24] <un_dave> ok. i've downloaded and extracted a driver archive. the instructions say to do this:
[12:24] <vsayikiran> why there isn't any undo command in ubuntu
[12:25] <un_dave> # make clean modules (as root or with sudo)
[12:25] <un_dave> # make install
[12:25] <un_dave> # depmod -a
[12:25] <un_dave> # insmod ./src/r8168.ko
[12:25] <nanonyme> what could you undo?
[12:25] <[nrx] > does anyone know a quick way of taring up x directories within /home/user/something and have the output filenames the same as the directories with .tgz?
[12:25] <stefg> lalala: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/powernowd/+bug/111375
[12:25] <Digitalia> Is there any way for me to find out why Ubuntu will only boot in recovery mode but not regularly? (Brand new install, never been in regular mode)
[12:25] <un_dave> so i try sudo make clean module, and i get
[12:26] <un_dave> make: *** No rule to make target `module'.  Stop.
[12:26] <EvaLuaTe> hello
[12:26] <GNine> ubuntu has been good to me .. for the most part .. but i find it way more rewarding than windows when i actually learn something while fixing something
[12:26] <vsayikiran> nanonyme: like if i delete,rename,cut,copy,paste or any such operation on any folder by mistake i can undo it
[12:26] <jussi01> un_dave: are you in the directory of the source?
[12:26] <EvaLuaTe> what files should i configure to get BIND doing RDNS stuff please ? :)
[12:26] <vsayikiran> nano: just like we have ctrl+Z in windows
[12:26] <un_dave> i'm in the directory, yes
[12:26] <stefg> Digitalia: does not boot at all, or does boot but not to a desktop in standard mode?
[12:26] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: nothing.. just make sure you have the conf's correct
[12:27] <vsayikiran> do we have an equivalent of ctrl+z like in windows
[12:27] <un_dave> jussi01: i am i ment to replace the word 'module' with something else?
[12:27] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , what are the confs please ? :)
[12:27] <spooner> stefg, w00t, i love u
[12:27] <nanonyme> vsayikiran, undo is generally something you do in text editors. unless you use root, you shouldn't need to undo
[12:27] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: to be honest, and i'm not being funny, but if you don't know what the conf's are, you shouldn't be messing around with DNS, let alone rDNS
[12:27] <jussi01> un_dave: I think maybe so. also, try to just make clean
[12:27] <sixpence> What package name would include ALL of gnome. I want to remove it.
[12:27] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , my ISP told me he'll delegate the class of IP's so i can set RDNS's on them, i just need to know what to ask him
[12:28] <nanonyme> that is, the problems won't be very severe
[12:28] <spooner> stefg, i hacked up the .prerm and .postrm files :)
[12:28] <EvaLuaTe> umm, ok, nvm
[12:28] <un_dave> jussi01: ok, did that. i dont think i see any error messages. what now?
[12:28] <EvaLuaTe> thanks [nrx]  =)
[12:28] <Digitalia> stefg: Won't boot at all in normal mode. Only in recovery mode (where I type this now)
[12:29] <un_dave> jussi01: make install ?
[12:29] <vsayikiran> nano: suppose i rename a file in winxp, i can undo it
[12:29] <jussi01> un_dave: make install ?
[12:29] <Digitalia> At least it has network support :P
[12:29] <jussi01> un_dave: yep
[12:29] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: read up on.. you need to do more than just edit some confs :)
[12:29] <GNine> this is not windows
[12:29] <stefg> Digitalia: what error do you get?
[12:29] <AronRaavHex> how do i reset default mouse acceleration and sensitivity in ubuntu feisty fawn?
[12:29] <GNine> jeez
[12:29] <vsayikiran> nano: why linux doesn't have any command like this
[12:29] <jussi01> un_dave: you might need sudo for that
[12:29] <Digitalia> I get no error, just a black screen.. even after 15 minutes.
[12:30] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , ok, i'll do some havy google-ing :P
[12:30] <Digitalia> But recovery boots just fine after i startx
[12:30] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: that's a very good idea :)
[12:30] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: are you running bind?
[12:30] <EvaLuaTe> i just thought it was as easy as editing some confs and restarting, that's why i checked in here first
[12:30] <EvaLuaTe> [nrx] , yes
[12:30] <un_dave> jussi01: where can i paste the results for you ?
[12:30] <abhishek> compiz (core) - Fatal: No composite extension
[12:30] <abhishek> .. how do i fix this

[12:30] <GNine> boo

[12:31] <stefg> Digitalia: hmmm, strange. recovery and standard use the same kernel and initramfs. Have you looked at /boot/grub/menu.lst ? should be the same entries, except recovery having 'single' added
[12:32] <Digitalia> I have not yet. Lemme browse that.
[12:32] <vsayikiran> heguru: my computer hangs after i restart my computer when wireless is enabled
[12:32] <[nrx] > EvaLuaTe: it's /etc/named.conf and the correct zone files in /var/named/file.db
[12:33] <un_dave> jussi01: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/38440/
[12:33] <vsayikiran> heguru; when my wireless is disabled then it shut downs normally
[12:33] <Digitalia> Yea, recovery says "single" and the normal boot says "quiet" and "splash"
[12:33] <EvaLuaTe> ok, thanks again [nrx]
[12:34] <EvaLuaTe> i was just reading the manual about it :P
[12:34] <Digitalia> I doubt the system would take more than 15 minutes to boot, though
[12:34] <jussi01> un_dave: so you did 'sudo make clean' first?

[12:34] <mm23> hi , i am new to Ubuntu and i want to install my internet connection (Adsl on lan - require username & password) ?
[12:34] <stefg> Digitalia: might be that there's some usplash issue... try disabling for now (by removing 'splash') and try a reboot to standard-mode
[12:34] <un_dave> jussi01: yep. just retried too.
[12:35] <jussi01> un_dave: what does that do/give?
[12:35] <Digitalia> Awesome sauce. I'll try that. Thanks :)
[12:35] <vsayikiran> GNine; do you have any idea about this problem
[12:35] <Digitalia> Should I remove "quiet" too? Just to get a verbose startup?

[12:44] <[nrx] > erUSUL: no.. basically, in one of my home dirs, i've got a pile of dirs (dir1 dir2 dir3 dir4 dir5) and I need to tar each dir up individually.. and I need the tar to have the same name as the dir

[01:30] <gorski> 7.04.
[01:31] <void^> uninstall ardour-gtk?
[01:31] <gorski> i try, not working
[01:32] <_Argazm_> is the 7.10 alpha 5 version stable enough to use ?
[01:33] <Pici> gorski: Are you using a custom repository to get that package?  I dont see that version listed in the feisty repos.
[01:33] <gorski> yes

[01:34] <gorski> what to do now?
[01:34] <dn4> any idea on how to get file to my ipod?
[01:35] <berent> can't ubuntu be suspended / hibernated /stand -by . It just goes off. why?
[01:35] <nimra987> gtkpod or drag-n-drop as a mass storage device
[01:36] <Pici> gorski: I'm going to suggest that you ask in #ubuntustudio since they have their own support channel on this network.
[01:37] <gorski> but is there any solution to remove it, since i can no longer update or install packages!
[01:38] <EbilPhish> gorski:  Tried manually removing the offending file?
[01:38] <gorski> ? what?
[01:38] <gorski> i manually removed the file that needs to be overwriten
[01:39] <gorski> but i get the same message

[01:51] <reverie> (or morning) :)
[01:51] <SuurMyy> hi there, have you heard that there would be problems w/7.04 and vim ?
[01:52] <reverie> Anyone here have any experience with Feisty / Gutsy and a Thinkpad T61?
[01:52] <DjViper> reverie: uhm, don't ask to ask, just ask if you have a specific problem :)
[01:53] <Keroro> ............
[01:53] <Keroro> ..........
[01:53] <reverie> DjViper, ok :)
[01:53] <Spooneh> Anyone know why installing the 'kubuntu-desktop' package and using kdm would lose my sound? the kmix looks a bit bare.
[01:53] <Keroro> su
[01:53] <reverie> Well I'm debating wheather I should go with 32bit or 64bit
[01:53] <murkyMurk> right, back. still feisty is not seeing my sda drive
[01:53] <DjViper> reverie: if you have a 64bit setup, thats what you'll go for
[01:54] <berent> can't ubuntu be suspended / hibernated /stand -by . It just goes off. why?
[01:54] <Keroro> oh no
[01:54] <Pici> reverie: I disagree...
[01:54] <jxxxt> Reverie, I am using 64bit and really do not see any advantage
[01:54] <Spooneh> reverie: when i tried 64bit my experience were things didnt work as much
[01:54] <Spooneh> reverie: but that was just my experience with it.
[01:54] <murkyMurk> snap 64 just gives compatibility issues
[01:54] <reverie> Last time I used 64bit on my old crappy Acer laptop, I had a LOT of problems with 3rd party acpi stuff I needed
[01:54] <reverie> and of course Flash and other things
[01:54] <berent> repost : can't ubuntu be suspended / hibernated /stand -by . It just goes off. why?
[01:54] <Pici> reverie: There are still issues with proprietary drivers/applications not having 64bit support.
[01:55] <Spooneh> reverie: my wireless crapped out when using 64bit
[01:55] <reverie> yeah
[01:55] <DjViper> berent: it can
[01:55] <jxxxt> Reverie, I would prolly stick to 32bit yes
[01:55] <reverie> think I'll go with 32bit Gutsy tribe 5
[01:55] <berent> DjViper: how?
[01:55] <Spooneh> anyone know why installing kubuntu-desktop and switching to kdm would make my sound disppear?
[01:55] <jxxxt> Reverie, Gutsy is still in beta
[01:55] <DjViper> berent: I don't know, mine can hehe
[01:55] <reverie> jxxxt, I know :)
[01:56] <jxxxt>  use feisty if you want stable ver
[01:56] <murkyMurk> upgrade from edgy to feisty...lost my 2nd hdd which is a sata drive.....not in fdisk, no errors thrown..ideas?
[01:56] <berent> DjViper : what have u done?
[01:56] <DjViper> reverie: you should use ff unless you're a 'pro' heh
[01:56] <DjViper> berent: nothinig in particular in that issue, it just works here
[01:56] <jxxxt> Reverie, OK then :))
[01:56] <reverie> DjViper, pro? er, dunno bout that, but I've been using linux on/off since 1998
[01:57] <DjViper> reverie: ah okay
[01:57] <Spooneh> ubotu: HDA Intel
[01:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hda intel - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[01:57] <reverie> my linux boxes usually don't have X running
[01:57] <IdleOne> reverie: so you know nothing like the rest of us :)
[01:57] <reverie> idaho45, haha
[01:57] <berent> is there any terminal command which can be invoked for system to go stand-by mode?
[01:57] <IdleOne> tab completion :)

[01:58] <reverie> or its a case of 7 out of 10 devices work
[01:58] <reverie> and the 3 that don't i really need :)
[01:58] <Anlar> reverie: for dummies there is a recipe that does not usually fail. it is: intel all the way.
[01:58] <reverie> Anlar, its a THinkpad, its 99% intel
[01:58] <Ongaku> hmm...I attempted to install a plugin and I got a configure error that dbus is missing
[01:58] <reverie> except for the 4-in-1 card reader
[01:59] <Anlar> which is what, realtek?
[01:59] <erUSUL> murkyMurk: dmesg | grep ata and/or dmesg| grep sd   should show you the disks (ide devices and sata) that where discovered on boot
[01:59] <reverie> Ricoh
[01:59] <reverie> i can paste lspci if you like
[01:59] <Anlar> reverie: what doesn't work really?
[01:59] <reverie> Anlar, intel x3100 graphics controller, it works but a bit unstable
[02:00] <Ongaku> checking for dbus... configure: error: Package requirements (dbus-1 >= 0.50) were not met:
[02:00] <Ongaku> No package 'dbus-1' found
[02:00] <erUSUL> murkyMurk: were*
[02:00] <Anlar> reverie: -intel driver?
[02:00] <reverie> Anlar, yes
[02:00] <Ongaku> i tried to apt-get install and it says i have dbus and it
[02:00] <Ongaku> is current
[02:01] <jxxxt> does anyone know of a workaround for a blacklisted SIS graphics card
[02:01] <reverie> jxxxt, for what, Compiz?
[02:01] <murkyMurk> it finds ata3 ata4 ata5 ata6 using sata_nv but although by IDE drives show up after boot, my sata drive is missing
[02:01] <damjan|work> Ongaku: maybe the configure script checks in a stupid way and doesn't know that 1.0 is > 0.50
[02:01] <jxxxt> Reverie, Yes
[02:01] <Anlar> reverie: they are pretty keen on fixing the bugs so I'd report those crashes and diagnose it.. this one time at band camp.. I had an application producing buffer underruns at i810's xv implementation, locking actually the kernel. took 2 hours to get it bug fixed after I reported it
[02:01] <Ongaku> ah but how would i get past that?
[02:01] <reverie> jxxxt, you can uncomment that in /usr/bin/compiz i think it is
[02:02] <reverie> Anlar, yep, its a very new chipset, so i know it'll take time :)
[02:02] <jxxxt> Reverie, Then I get function??
[02:02] <Anlar> reverie: yeah, very new. I wish I had that chipset
[02:02] <Ongaku> it's just a simple pidgin rhythmbox plugin this shouldn't all freak out lol
[02:02] <murkyMurk> and anyway, the original edgy has no beef with the sata....it IS a feisty problem
[02:03] <reverie> jxxxt, possibly
[02:03] <reverie> jxxxt, tho, if it's blacklisted, it might be black listed for a good reason :)
[02:03] <keito> is there any way to check what is wrong with my pc.... randomly the pc beeps internally and there is a momentary freeze followed by what sounds like a click from the hard drive.  bad blocks, hard drive failing or power supply on its way out I need verification.  SOMEONE MUST KNOW how to do some system diagnostics with ubuntu????
[02:03] <jxxxt> Reverie, Thanks I will try nothing to lose any way :-)
[02:03] <reverie> jxxxt, switch it on with a long stick :)
[02:04] <[nrx] > is there a gui rar tool?
[02:04] <Ongaku> isn't there a system monitor thinger?
[02:04] <[nrx] > that has 'shell extensions'
[02:04] <keito> ps: this happened with xp beforehand but more frequently (though in ubuntu it is happening more & more)
[02:04] <jxxxt> Reverie, Is it soppused to spark and fizz??
[02:04] <[nrx] > nm
[02:04] <[nrx] > sorted
[02:04] <jxxxt> suppsed
[02:04] <Ongaku> keito, that sounds bad
[02:04] <reverie> jxxxt, have you been over clocking again?? :)
[02:05] <Ongaku> sounds like your HDD might be failing
[02:05] <[nrx] > keito: time for a new pc!
[02:05] <[nrx] > or hdd at least
[02:05] <Digitalia> Is there a way to figure out what settings I need to add to my GRUB menu.lst to get my XP partition to boot?
[02:05] <Ongaku> HDD are cheap atleast these days
[02:05] <GNine> time for a system reboot
[02:05] <reverie> Anlar, lspci sent to you in pvt, as not to flood #
[02:05] <jxxxt> Reverie, No This sis chipset is a night mare really!!
[02:05] <reverie> if its not reading your SATA drive, you can put SATA/IDE compatability mode on
[02:06] <void^> keito: first take a look at 'dmesg'. if you suspect hdd failure, look at 'smartctl -a /dev/hdX' (install smartmontools first)
[02:06] <keito> I've had new hard drive after new hard drive, I'm thinking that the power supply might not be capable of powering the system anymore
[02:06] <murkyMurk> keito: sounds like a buffer overrun....stuck key maybe?
[02:06] <reverie> jxxxt, I *hate* SiS.. have so much crap with them
[02:06] <keito> murkyMurk: doubt that
[02:06] <Ongaku> but my friend was trying to get me to put unstable repostories in my sources.list, he said it would find dbus or something
[02:06] <keito> void^: will do that asap
[02:06] <murkyMurk> keito: just cheaper to look first and buy new hdd second
[02:06] <jxxxt> Reverie, *Agrees
[02:06] <berent> is there any terminal command which can be invoked for system to go stand-by mode?
[02:06] <damjan|work> Digitalia: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showpost.php?s=71754df63fb9d35958672da3865a23c6&p=1839337&postcount=5
[02:07] <keito> murkyMurk: yeah if I had a stuck key would it not ttttttttttttttttttttttttype ;0) plus i've got anew kb recently
[02:07] <[nrx] > berent: man shutdown
[02:08] <Ongaku> so how can i get past the ./configure saying I don't have dbus?
[02:08] <hmhowie> windows has just almost made me cry :(
[02:08] <soc> hi
[02:08] <Ongaku> good morning
[02:08] <Digitalia> damjan|work: Would that work if they are both on one partitioned-to-hell SATA HDD?
[02:08] <soc> is there a "usability" channel or something?
[02:08] <[nrx] > There there
[02:08] <murkyMurk> true, stillsounds like a full buffer though
[02:08] <berent> [nrx]  : no option for stand by
[02:08] <hmhowie> and i don't even use the ***ing operating system myself
[02:08] <murkyMurk> reverie: how do i turn that mode on?
[02:08] <damjan|work> Digitalia: yes
[02:08] <[nrx] > berent: it aint possible
[02:09] <reverie> murkyMurk, which mode?
[02:09] <gorski> a program for extracting cd-s?
[02:09] <berent> [nrx]  : you mean i cant stop my cpu fans even when i want to go out.
[02:09] <murkyMurk> reverie: IDE compatibility
[02:09] <reverie> murkyMurk, ah, in the BIOS
[02:09] <[nrx] > berent: try http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-271234.html
[02:09] <ln-> who should be "kicked" to get a kernel-related bug report processed?
[02:09] <Pici> gorski: You mean to pull tracks off of a music cd?
[02:10] <reverie> murkyMurk, some BIOS's will list it as AHCI
[02:10] <erUSUL> Ongaku: install libdbus-1-dev and probably libdbus-glib-1-dev (gnome/gtk) or libdbus-qt-1-dev (kde/qt)
[02:10] <murkyMurk> reverie: just upgrading from rock solid edgy....nothing has changed with BIOS or hardware. only change is Feisty

[02:10] <reverie> murkyMurk, http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html
[02:10] <Pici> gorski: If you mean that than I suggest sound juicer.
[02:10] <reverie> murkyMurk, oh i see
[02:10] <keito> void^: http://pastebin.com/m4b7c92a7
[02:11] <reverie> murkyMurk, try boot into a liveCD of Feisty to see if you can acess your SATA
[02:11] <reverie> then you should be able to determine if it's a config problem or  not
[02:11] <gorski> Pici: any other, i cannot grab tags on sound juicer!
[02:11] <Quak3r> hello there!! how can I extract the files of compacted files?? (if they have many parts??) thank you
[02:12] <[nrx] > tags?
[02:12] <murkyMurk> reverie: from memory, fesity CD only installs from CLi mode...had to manually edit fstab last time. I can still access SATA if I boot back to edgy
[02:12] <keito> void^: this is the dmesg output..... http://pastebin.com/m4b2edd4a
[02:12] <Digitalia> I'm kinda confused about the whole hd0,1 setting. I only have one HD in this PC and the XP partition is mounted at /dev/sda5 (While ubuntu is mounted at sda7). Would my XP boot be hd0,5?

[02:13] <ubotu> keito: Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[02:13] <reverie> murkyMurk, sata works fine in feisty for me
[02:14] <keito> how do you find out what is available !
[02:14] <murkyMurk> reverie: it HAS to be a problem with the feisty kernel implementation of sata_nv specific to the ASUA M2N
[02:14] <reverie> murkyMurk, what was the mount point in edgy? /dev/sdaX ?
[02:14] <gorski> aha
[02:14] <Pici> keito: Try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[02:14] <reverie> Mr-Snick, done a kernel upgrade?
[02:15] <murkyMurk> reverie: was always /dev/sda1 with IDE's in a /dev/hdax chain
[02:15] <reverie> er murkyMurk even
[02:15] <keito> Pici: there's a command to find out what subjects the bot know about though isn't there?
[02:15] <murkyMurk> reverie: I've already overriden the UUID in fstab with an old fashioned /dev/sda1...didn't help
[02:16] <keito> void^: can you make anything of the dmesg output?
[02:16] <Pici> keito: That website lists all the topics that the bot knows, also you can use `search something` if you are looking for somethign specific, but please only do that in a private message with the bot.
[02:16] <reverie> murkyMurk, hm
[02:16] <void^> keito: hrm, perhaps smart doesn't work over sata, i have no experience with that.. can you try the disk in another system?
[02:16] <reverie> murkyMurk, try set the BIOS to sata compabitlity mode for now and see?
[02:17] <murkyMurk> reverie: i'll give it a go, hang 5
[02:17] <keito> void^: this has happened with more than this disk.  the more disk's plugged in the more it happens too.  thus a power issue (which can lead to bad blocks) is possible perhaps
[02:17] <Digitalia> Would my partition on /dev/sda5 also be written as hd0,5 in the GRUB menu.lst?
[02:18] <void^> keito: well, that makes sense.. i've had a similar issue with some scsi disks and cheap power supplies (the disks were just restarting randomly..)
[02:18] <keito> void^

[02:21] <keito> void^: sata should run just fine so confused, perhaps its cos I tried the whole disk ie: /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 or /dev/sda2????
[02:21] <void^> keito: well, i don't touch those overpriced things with "gaming" labels on them.. smartctl is only interested in disks, not partitions
[02:21] <[nrx] > is there any linux app like daemontools available? for instance, i have a .bin and .cue that i want access to without having to burn it
[02:22] <murkyMurk> reverie: no AHCI or compatibility mode options in BIOS
[02:22] <Pici> !iso | [nrx]
[02:22] <ubotu> [nrx] : To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[02:22] <murkyMurk> reverie: it's a Phoenix BIOS
[02:22] <[nrx] > pici i presume that will work with bin's aswell?
[02:22] <reverie> murkyMurk, there might be a SATA Mode: AHCI / Compatible
[02:22] <void^> things like videocds can be played by mplayer/vlc directly too

[02:24] <IdleOne> someone know the key-combo to close a tab in xchat?
[02:24] <void^> keito: yeah, but you can also get it to print its error log and a table with read failures and other data, comes in quite handy when guessing where the problem might be

[02:28] <void^> keito: nothing else with -a instead of -i?

[02:29] <Pici> !ask | iownyou
[02:29] <ubotu> iownyou: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:29] <Digitalia> Would my partition on /dev/sda5 also be written as hd0,5 in the GRUB menu.lst? (Sorry for repeating)
[02:29] <Morrowyn> Digitalia i think, iirc
[02:29] <Morrowyn> so^
[02:29] <sjoerd> Digitalia: hd0,4 probably
[02:29] <void^> Digitalia: no, (0,4)
[02:29] <void^> *hd0,4
[02:29] <Morrowyn> :)
[02:29] <iownyou> murkymurk how much can i get for mine and what does a NVidia
[02:29] <PriceChild> Digitalia, no, grub starts cuonting at 0 in both instances so 0,4

[02:33] <DamienCassou> bye
[02:33] <panosru> EbilPhish, do i need to configure first?
[02:34] <EbilPhish> panosru:  You probably need to install the build environment
[02:34] <kst> will it be possible to upgrade from feisty to gutsy without major hassle? is it even recommended for normal desktop users? i dont feel like spending ages modding my feisty installation to then lose it all with the upgrade :)
[02:34] <EbilPhish> panosru:  You normally do ./configure befoure a make, depends on the build system though
[02:34] <iownyou> keito: it meens be back later
[02:34] <keito> void^: does this "Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x000f   060" mean i have had 60 errors of this type?

[02:35] <EbilPhish> panosru:  apt-get built essential
[02:35] <EbilPhish> panosru:  apt-get build-essential
[02:35] <jrib> kst: yes and yes.  Update manager will prompt you when gutsy is released

[02:37] <panosru> EbilPhish, build-essential is already the newest version.

[02:40] <reverie> murkyMurk, not that i'm aware of
[02:40] <iownyou> murkyMurk what doy ou need help with
[02:40] <reverie> murkyMurk, i very seldom upgrade, i normally reinstall and make it a learning experience
[02:40] <EbilPhish> panosru:  'apt-get install autotools-dev' if you still need it
[02:41] <IdleOne> murkyMurk: what are you trying to downgrade?
[02:41] <murkyMurk> reverie: figures
[02:41] <murkyMurk> IdleOne: from feisty back to edgy
[02:41] <panosru> EbilPhish, ok installed it now :D
[02:41] <hawk> murkyMurk: Hmm, why is that?
[02:41] <Spoonah> anyone know how to fix HDA Intel based sound cards? ive tried the HowTo guide on the ubuntu site
[02:41] <panosru> EbilPhish, now try to make ?
[02:42] <EbilPhish> panosru:  './configure' first
[02:42] <reverie> murkyMurk, is the sata controller listed in lspci?
[02:42] <IdleOne> murkyMurk: ahhh well that is a tricky one. some ppl change sources.list back to edgy from feisty but I dont recommend it. has worked but probably wont
[02:42] <murkyMurk> 'cos feisty refuses to see my sata hdd sda
[02:42] <jxxxt> Reverie, FYI when I uncommented the blacklist it failed to find a whitelisted driver
[02:42] <panosru> EbilPhish, i got bash: ./configure: No such file or directory :(
[02:42] <reverie> jxxxt, ah, you might habve to put the pci device string into the whitelist
[02:42] <reverie> jxxxt, but i'm not sure how
[02:42] <murkyMurk> reverie: hang on...just rebooting it
[02:42] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Ok, then just make, kde uses cmake so its a little diffrent from normal
[02:42] <reverie> jxxxt, google for your sis card and compiz?
[02:42] <IdleOne> murkyMurk: best bet is to backup your important data and reinstall
[02:42] <hawk> murkyMurk: Booting the old kernel doesn't work either?

[02:42] <Spoonah> My sound card is "Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02)". I have rebiult and installed the latest ALSA, and tried different settings in the alsabase modprobe file. any other ideas?
[02:43] <murkyMurk> Hawk: boots back to CLiu
[02:43] <murkyMurk> Hawk: sda1 is ther but getting nvidia back on is obviously a pain
[02:43] <reverie> Spoonah, feisty?
[02:43] <Spoonah> reverie: correct
[02:44] <jxxxt> Reverie, The guy who writes the sis drivers has not even bothered with this card. I think I might be done mate :-))
[02:44] <panosru> EbilPhish, ok installing cmake right now. The patch for emoticons manager when i have to apply it? before make? or after?

[02:44] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Yep
[02:44] <Spoonah> reverie: Ive had sound going before, but i forgot how. this is a fresh install. also i just installed KDE. i dunno if tht had anything to do with it
[02:45] <reverie> Spoonah, if you run 'amixer' from the console?
[02:45] <Spoonah> reverie: i only get master and pcm
[02:46] <reverie> Spoonah, and if you increase the volume there?
[02:46] <void^> keito: no, the actual absolute value is printed below "raw_value". "value" "and threshold" represent what the drive thinks about this. basically the drive says the seek failure rate is 69, and if it reaches 30 it thinks it will be dead soon. these problems might just be caused by power failures though.
[02:46] <Spoonah> reverie: yeah, full volume, no sound
[02:46] <reverie> Spoonah, bit of an oxymoron there :)
[02:47] <reverie> Spoonah, in Gnome, goto the sound preferences and check that your card and correct devices are selected
[02:47] <keito> void^: I think a new power supply is probably the best way to go from here on in, what say you?
[02:47] <Spoonah> reverie: Im in KDE
[02:47] <reverie> if amixer sees Master and PCM, that should mean alsa's seing your card fine
[02:47] <reverie> Spoonah, hm
[02:47] <keito> void^: then try that test again
[02:47] <IdleOne> Spoonah: try #kubuntu they might help more
[02:47] <DrAk0> keito, worked as i wanted, ty.
[02:48] <murkyMurk> back
[02:48] <keito> DrAk0: np
[02:48] <Spoonah> IdleOne: Maybe, i dont think its a kubuntu specific issue, but ill try there
[02:48] <reverie> murkyMurk, wb :)
[02:48] <murkyMurk> reverie: yes, lspci lists MCP55 SATA Controller
[02:48] <void^> keito: i suppose so. it might be a problem with the controller too, but since the problem occurs on windows too it would have to be a hardware problem.. seems unlikely
[02:48] <IdleOne> Spoonah: only because they can give the correct GUI path to follow I would think
[02:48] <reverie> murkyMurk, and when you try modprobe the relevant module, does 'dmesg' say anything?
[02:48] <Phlogi> how can I get this lan card to work with feisty? http://pastebin.ca/709135
[02:49] <void^> keito: and with sata damaged/low quality cables can be ruled out as well
[02:49] <z0rz> How could I make grep only echo the first line it fines and nothing else after that?
[02:49] <murkyMurk> reverie: modprobe sata_nv produces no output
[02:49] <keito> void^: we shall see.... thanks for all your help though, much appreciated.  ps: why you say cables can be ruled out with sata?
[02:50] <reverie> murkyMurk, okay, and ytour last few lines in 'dmesg' ?
[02:50] <murkyMurk> reverie: stuff about eth0 and no IPV6 routers....allnormal
[02:51] <reverie> 'hdparm -i /dev/sda' ?
[02:51] <void^> keito: compared to old style ide cables sata cables should be much more reliable, right?
[02:51] <murkyMurk> reverie: even df -h ignores my sata drive
[02:51] <murkyMurk> reverie: hdparm isn't compatible with sda drives is it?
[02:51] <reverie> murkyMurk, it is
[02:51] <reverie> murkyMurk,  just run that and see wht it says
[02:52] <murkyMurk> reverie: /dev/sda: No such

[02:52] <reverie> hm
[02:52] <deathmas> sup up all
[02:52] <Spoonah> reverie: I have the device as 'autodetect' ive tried setting it to use 'ALSA', any other ideas?
[02:53] <deathmas> can anyone help me out a bit
[02:53] <keito> void^: what is it that dmesg actually does?
[02:53] <murkyMurk> reverie:  and it'sright :-) ls | grep sda in /dev gives no o/p
[02:53] <reverie> Spoonah, not sure, thinking.. :)
[02:53] <LjL-Temp> z0rz: grep -m 1
[02:53] <murkyMurk> dmesh relays kernel messages for de-bug purposes
[02:53] <void^> keito: ide cables suffer from a number of problems.. bulky, easily damaged, much interference/low signal quality..

[02:53] <deathmas> I got a 20 gig drive I installed kubuntu  7 and i added a few packages and world of warcraft but now i get hard drive full

[03:02] <keito> monkeyBox: whats your problem?
[03:02] <deathmas> when I delete trash bin is it gone or is it just there hiding
[03:02] <EbilPhish> panosru:  Did you do 'apt-get build-dep kopete'?
[03:03] <panosru> EbilPhish, but i run sudo apt-get install autoconf and install the 2.61-3 version then i run also apt-get update and apt-get upgrade but still get the same error
[03:03] <monkeyBox> keito: in a nutshell, my mythbubtu box crashes randomly
[03:03] <monkeyBox> ...and I'm pretty sure it's not overheating
[03:03] <keito> monkeyBox: crash as in x restart or system?
[03:03] <keito> monkeyBox: /other
[03:03] <schallstrom_> deathmas: trash bin in gnome is just a folder named .Trash in your home dir
[03:04] <monkeyBox> keito: hard crashes.  as in, no display, no keyboard, no mouse, have to press the hard-reset button.
[03:04] <aguitel> how uninstall aplication with personal settings?
[03:04] <deathmas> schallstrom_: ok i understand but I have 20 gig full and dont know how
[03:04] <keito> monkeyBox: ouch, have you tried any other diagnostic tools (like those found on the ultimate boot cd)
[03:04] <IdleOne> aguitel: apt-get remove -purge package
[03:04] <astro76> deathmas, when you empty the trash it's gone... one way to free space is to do "sudo apt-get clean" which will delete downloaded packages files which were already installed (do "du -sh /var/cache/apt/archives" to see how much space will be freed)
[03:04] <schallstrom_> deathmas: use "du" command to determine what is eating up your space
[03:04] <astro76> deathmas, besides that we don't know what you installed or how much space wow takes up either ;)
[03:04] <deathmas> schallstrom_: I installed kubuntu 7.04 and world of warcraft and a few addons to the base install and my drive is full
[03:04] <EbilPhish> panosru:  If you know basic scripting you might beable to edit the admin/cvs.sh file on the line the error occurs and hack it to ignore it
[03:05] <_andyt_> hey can anybody please tell me the default  hoary repository sources.list as the one i have isn't working it can't stat gets 404 error on the defaults
[03:05] <aguitel> thanks
[03:05] <monkeyBox> keito,  no... I guess I could check that out
[03:05] <apollo13> hi, did someone sucessfully install kubuntu 6.06.1 on an hp compaq workstations with an Intel GMA 3000 ?
[03:05] <_andyt_> is this because the old hoary repistory has been removed?
[03:05] <keito> monkeyBox: is there anything in particular running at that moment
[03:05] <apollo13> I am getting no devices detected
[03:05] <panosru> EbilPhish, :P well i only know JavaScript and PHP if that counts lol
[03:05] <MrPink> lo
[03:06] <deathmas> astro76: on 36k willbe freed
