[18:14] <daftykins> be more specific
[18:15] <doc|work> daftykins: done and restarted networking, no change
[18:15] <adc_> when i say update-java-alternatives -s java-6-sun i get the result No alternatives for firefox-javaplugin.so.
[18:15] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, sure no one is messing with your system?...have you set up autologin by any chance
[18:15] <Jack_Sparrow> ross_ I guess you could boot a gutsy livecd and get the tickets .. if you are pressed for time
[18:15] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: I see only two users. Me and root
[18:15] <treonaut> daftykin you said: plug it in
[18:15] <daftykins> you wouldn't have needed to have restarted a service for that to work
[18:15] <daftykins> what is the host system doc|work ?
[18:15] <doc|work> daftykins: ok, well, still not working :)
[18:15] <EmJay> adc: if sun-java6-plugin dosn't work - maybe try installing java-gcj-compat-plugin - that is the open source java
[18:15] <daftykins> default ubuntu desktop/server 8.04 ?
[18:15] <doc|work> daftykins: another machine on my network
[18:16] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: no autologin and unless they are burgling the house... But in that case I would expect them to steal stuff not just mess with my head
[18:16] <anirudh0> adc_, or the icedtea java plugin
[18:16] <doc|work> daftykins: the machine trying to connect from or to. It's from heron to a freebsd box
[18:16] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, lol
[18:16] <jonaskoelker> question: is it possible to cache the liveCD in memory and have it use that copy? I want to burn a CD while running off of the liveCD...
[18:16] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: And who would bother retrieving files from the trash and deleting others?
[18:16] <saki> Hi, i screwed up my panels and i dont see my open applications anymore, any way to reset or fix?
[18:16] <lolzer> JonathanEllis: you should install unhide and check for hidden processes
[18:16] <Jack_Sparrow> !panels
[18:17] <Jack_Sparrow> !panel
[18:17] <daftykins> that's a very pointless idea jonaskoelker
[18:17] <ross_> Jack_Sparrow: well no, that's not the problem, i just want to be able to buy tickets regularly without having to do gutsy stuff or booting into windows : (
[18:17] <anirudh0> saki, add the applications again via "add to panel"
[18:17] <ross_> Jack_Sparrow: so can you please clarify for me once again what's the real problem here?
[18:17] <anirudh0> daftykins, not really
[18:17] <JonathanEllis> lolzer: Could it be a virus? Are there such things on linux?
[18:17] <saki> anirudh0: what do u add so it can show the applications that are currently open?
[18:17] <jbroome> no
[18:17] <daftykins> so what happens when you type "ping machine" doc|work ?
[18:17] <lolzer> not generally speaking
[18:17] <Xerrion> !panels
[18:17] <Jack_Sparrow> ross_ Not sure.. I dont have Hardy or FF3 on this box
[18:17] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, not unless one got written specially for you :)
[18:17] <raginghawk> jack_sparrow: ive maked it :) soooo happy, thanks to you and everyone else who helped me. :)
[18:17] <jonaskoelker> daftykins: how so?
[18:17] <doc|work> daftykins: that works :/
[18:17] <Jack_Sparrow> raginghawk glad you got it
[18:17] <saki> oh ok found it
[18:18] <saki> thank you :)
[18:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !reset
[18:18] <daftykins> oh so it wasn't just that which you needed working? i might've read your problem wrong then... ?
[18:18] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, other things being equal..i'd recommend either creation of a new user...or a reinstall
[18:18] <raginghawk> ive mounted my first partition on a linux os... ;)
[18:18] <Jack_Sparrow> sorry folks,  cant remember the trigger for resetting the panels
[18:18] <daftykins> ah you said the prog "host" is ignoring it
[18:18] <Jack_Sparrow> To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel »
[18:18] <daftykins> ok
[18:19] <daftykins> sorry doc|work
[18:19] <doc|work> daftykins: 'host machinename' isn't working, and it seems certain ways of resolving the ip address aren't, but ping and ssh can both connect to the machine using the machinename
[18:19] <doc|work> np
[18:19] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: When I upgraded, I cloned my hard-drive to a spare first, just in case. Should I start from scratch? Just that it may take a long time to get back to where I am - especially setting up the printer
[18:19] <daftykins> yeah i think you need a proper DNS server entry for "host"
[18:19] <doc|work> I have a php script which is trying to resolve but is failing
[18:20] <jonaskoelker> daftykins: oh well, despite it being a pointless idea, is it possible?
[18:20] <adc_> EmJay: when i go to javatester.org it says that java 1.6 from sun is installed and looks good, maybe it is the applet on that particular page, it gives me a Start: java not initialized when i start that applet
[18:20] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: I read somewhere about a method to generate a list of installed packages and then reinstall from the list. Or might that cause the same problems?
[18:20] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, first try creating a new user...maybe something's messed up with your user's settings...are system files also facing the same problem
[18:20] <daftykins> are you just trying to produce a simple platform by which to write discs without having an installed OS jonaskoelker ?
[18:20] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, one sec
[18:20] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: Another problem since upgrading is that sane doesnt work anymore so maybe a clean install would be better. Oh god!!!!!!!!!
[18:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !clone | JonathanEllis
[18:21] <doc|work> daftykins: crap, any alternative? this is just for a local machine.
[18:21] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: Oops. Sorry
[18:21] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, very rarely have i heard of an upgrade going perfectly.
[18:21] <jonaskoelker> daftykins: no; I have one box, one CD drive.  I have an old liveCD and want to burn a new one
[18:21] <daftykins> a quick scan of the man page for "host" shows it's a DNS util, so i think it requires more setup i'm afraid - unless i knew more about what you're doing that's failing like what that PHP use is then i'm afraid i think DNS'd be needed
[18:22] <doc|work> anirudh0: this one seems to have caused a *lot* of problems :/
[18:22] <ross_> Jack_Sparrow: hi again
[18:22] <daftykins> why not install the old OS to that system then copy the newer version ISO to it to burn?
[18:22] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: In other words, you recommend a clean install? Is dpkg likely to clone my problems from one machine to another?
[18:22] <ross_> Jack_Sparrow: so what do i need to do to buy tickets lollll
[18:22] <daftykins> a little wasted time to install the old OS i know, but why not ;x
[18:22] <doc|work> daftykins: arse, ok, thanks, any suggestions on a way to set up a local dns server easily?
[18:22] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, dpkg only clones packages
[18:22] <daftykins> funnily enough i'm wrestling with BIND9 right now doc|work XD
[18:22] <Jack_Sparrow> ross_ No idea...  but someone will know
[18:22] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: So the packages would be fresh versions?
[18:23] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, I seriously doubt that your problems are due to some bug in some package
[18:23] <jonaskoelker> daftykins: because it takes ages.  Besides, I have the necessary hardware to be able to do what I want, so it should be able to happen ;)
[18:23] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, yes.
[18:23] <daftykins> and progress is not great, it's pretty heavy a service
[18:23] <Jack_Sparrow> daftykins what about a bootable usb with ubuntu
[18:23] <FNorte> Hi... I have a Geforce f5200 board.. suddenly (reboot) my resolution change (from 1280x1024) to 640x480 and I can't fix it... The system said that the driver can't be used, I change the nvidia-glx-new uninstall by Sinaptic and install the nvidia-glx withouth success... someone can help me?
[18:23] <ross_> Jack_Sparrow: who should i ask? ; (
[18:23] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: OK. Well thanks. Guess I have a day of fun coming up real soon then!
[18:23] <daftykins> i think my problem is just that it's a very simple problem to get around but jonaskoelker wants an incredibly radical solution to simply get around laziness
[18:24] <Jack_Sparrow> ross_ form the best/most complete question you can and be aptient while someone tries to come up with an answer
[18:24] <daftykins> (no offence intended)
[18:24] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, well...periodic installs do build character :)
[18:24] <jonaskoelker> daftykins: I take it you don't write perl?  ... Laziness is a cardinal virtue
[18:24] <anirudh0> ross_, you could try running IE under wine, in case the problem is that the site requires IE
[18:24] <daftykins> that i don't ;)
[18:25] <ross_> anirud0: ah - that could work yes
[18:25] <ross_> anirud0: however
[18:25] <Jack_Sparrow> anirudh0 I just got through with gutsy and ff2
[18:25] <leoquant> running hardy: getting a distr. update: libmono cairo....
[18:25] <ross_> anirud0: i had no problem buying tickets while in windows and i used mozilla : (
[18:25] <ross_> anirud0: so is the problem the browser or the OS? that's my questions
[18:25] <ross_> question*
[18:25] <suspect43> hi, i'm having a problem with screen resolutions. i mucked up my xorg.conf once, and this GUI for editing xorg.conf came up. anyone know how to bring that up again? looks like xorg-edit, but that's a "command not found"
[18:25] <anirudh0> ross_, interesting...and you would have used ff2 as well i suppose?
[18:26] <anirudh0> ross_, the os is very unlikely to be the problem in any case
[18:26] <anirudh0> ross_, i meant when you bought tickets under windows?
[18:26] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: Hmmm. Thats an interesting way of putting it. I had hoped all that was gone now I am not running windows. The reason I came to ubuntu is that windows xp was broken and I have installed windows so many times then spent a whole day or three downloading all the security updates etc before reinstalling all my apps. At least dpkg should save me a lot or work
[18:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !browsers
[18:26] <daftykins> "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" suspect43
[18:26] <unimatrix9> hi there , i have sound, i have startup sound, but no shutdown sound ( and it is set ), any tips what could be the issue?
[18:26] <Jack_Sparrow> ross_ it would not take long to try one of those others
[18:27] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, i guess i would have installed ubuntu about 24 times now...over 2 years since 6.06
[18:27] <suspect43> daftykins: that has just keyboard configuration. no resolutions
[18:27] <jedimind> unimatrix9: is that really a problem worth debugging just to get shutdown sound?
[18:27] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, an upgrade always caused problems for me
[18:27] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: God! Why so many times
[18:27] <zerodamage> I **** my windows registry, is there anyway to edit it from linux?
[18:28] <daftykins> what did you do to it? :O
[18:28] <ross_> anirud0: yes, i was able to get through word verification in windows
[18:28] <ross_> anirud0: but here, i can't
[18:28] <lolzer> the problem with upgrades is that every system has different dependency requirements and sometimes things just get fuzzed.
[18:28] <unimatrix9> depends on your view, i was just wondering if some one has the same issue , or even better know a solution
[18:28] <anirudh0> ross_, ff2 in windows?..thats the same browser Jack_Sparrow used
[18:28] <ross_> anirud0: so this is kinda strange,
[18:28] <zerodamage> Messed with some language keys, now it bsod's on boot
[18:28] <daftykins> in IT the word "upgrade" in the context of operating system installations done any way other than clean install is often a very very bad idea
[18:28] <JonathanEllis> Is there any way to carry configs over with dpkg?
[18:28] <Thecaptain2000> hi, how do I set the name resolv order? some time ago you could have modified hosts.conf to set  order hosts,bind. now what?
[18:29] <zerodamage> I know whats wrong, i have some keys to replace them, but dont know how to get them in
[18:29] <openuser> hi, does anybody know what happened to aegis antivirus in ubuntu repos?, it doesn't appear
[18:29] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, no AFAIK...but ubuntu does "import settings"...never tried that though
[18:29] <ross_> anirud0: you wanna try it?
[18:29] <doc|work> Thecaptain2000: /etc/hosts.conf
[18:29] <daftykins>  /etc/nsswitch.conf Thecaptain2000 has a "Hosts:" line
[18:29] <doc|work> er, or what daftykins said
[18:30] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, i was experimenting with every linux distro i could lay hands on..started linux with 6.06..as a result had to repartion the drive many time..hence the large number of installs
[18:30] <ross_> anirud0: http://philadelphia.phillies.mlb.com/ticketing/singlegame.jsp?c_id=phi, click on any of the green "t"s
[18:30] <Thecaptain2000> daftykins: in nsswitch do I put hosts, bind?
[18:30] <ross_> anirud0: now enter a number of tickets you are buying and click any of the seats or just best available
[18:30] <ross_> anirud0: enter in the word verification stuff and click enter
[18:30] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: So now I dont know which hd to repartition. Erase my 7.10 installation or the new 8.04 one. But if I want to import settings I guess I would need one or other of them on a visible partition. I am running out of spare hard disks!
[18:31] <daftykins> comment out the current line "Hosts: blah" and enter a new one "Hosts: files dns"
[18:31] <ross_> anirud0: see if you can get through to buy the tickets
[18:31] <daftykins> i think this approach is what you need to do anyway, what are you doing exactly?
[18:31] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, as i said, i have no experience with importing settings...perhaps someone else has though...
[18:31] <JonathanEllis> anirudh0: Or should I just do a clean install on a fresh partition, leaving the others in place?
[18:31] <Enkidu_ak> Good morning
[18:31] <lolzer> good afternoon
[18:31] <anirudh0> ross_, i get an ""address not found"
[18:32] <scott> hi, i just hit this bug while doing a dist-upgrade to hardy: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/module-init-tools/+bug/208874
[18:32] <scott> is there a workaround?
[18:32] <JonathanEllis> Enkidu_ak: Good evening
[18:32] <Thecaptain2000> in /etc/nsswitch.conf I have a line saying hosts: files dns mdns4  if I want the content of the file hosts to take the precedence, how do I modify the line?
[18:32] <anirudh0> JonathanEllis, ubuntu needs to "see" a partition to import settings from it
[18:32] <woojjob> good daybreak
[18:32] <ross_> anirud0: wow
[18:32] <daftykins> as i just said, comment out the current line "Hosts: blah" and enter a new one "Hosts: files dns"
[18:32] <luk> hello, im trying to use bootcdwrite to make a full livedvd of my ubuntu and I get this error or warning, SRCDISK does not fit on DVD (Needed > DVD) does it means the iso wont fit on a dvd because of the size?
[18:32] <JonathanEllis> Well thanks to all. I have something to think about now!
[18:32] <ross_> anirud0: i got to where it just loads (Please wait while we're looking for the best seats) but i wouldn't let me trhough
[18:33] <Thecaptain2000> ok, I'll try that
[18:33] <ross_> anirud0: so anyhow, do you think it's the browser or the os?
[18:33] <doc|work> so I'm typing and as I do up pops a window from synaptic, I hit space, and something gets agreed/rejected. I don't even know what it was.... Anyone know how I can find out?
[18:33] <pen> how do you fully override hicolor icon theme?
[18:33] <anirudh0> ross_, from Jack's experience ...browser
[18:33] <doc|work> the window stole focus :/
[18:33] <micka> hi
[18:33] <pen> if I apply a custom theme, not all the icons in the theme will be used. Some will still use the icon in hicolor
[18:34] <pen> how do I solve this?
[18:34] <anirudh0> pen, the theme is incomplete...nothing you can do
[18:34] <anirudh0> leaving
[18:34] <pen> anirudh0, what do you mean incomplete? if
[18:34] <kshah> is there any chance that Ubuntu 8 will recogonize my wireless adapter? WG311T (Netgear 11.g)
[18:34] <spiderfire> how do you find the popularity of some packages?
[18:34] <ross_> anirud0: ok - but...what's the difference...i used the same browser in windows and i had no problem getting through....so why now...?
[18:34] <kshah> or am I going to have to do some crazy ndiswrapper nonsense?
[18:35] <daftykins> burn it and boot into LiveCD mode and see.
[18:35] <luk> pen u have to modify the names of icons that are not shown to fit to ur gnome names of icos, see what are the names of a theme icon and change the ones that dont shown in the current theme u are trying to see
[18:35] <daftykins> is it a PCI card or what?
[18:35] <kshah> dafty @ me ? PCI yes
[18:36] <Enkidu_ak> I am attempting to generate a CSR from the command line using "openssl req -key <key file> -out <CSR out file>". The command executes and asks for my key passphrase, which I enter, but then I am presented with a blank line. No prompt for further information, and as far as I can tell, it will sit there indefinitely.  I am using openssl 0.9.8e with
[18:36] <pen> why left me a message then leave?
[18:36] <unimatrix9> where is the system shutdown script located?
[18:36] <PdUb101> hey guys another question please, im trying to create a launcher for my xp partition on my desktop.  when i type the location of /media/sda1/ it says there is not application there.. but i jsut want it to do location?? any help? (ps im selecting location from the drop down menu)
[18:38] <spiderfire> http://popcon.ubuntu.com/
[18:38] <daftykins> make it run nautilus and point nautilus to that location PdUb101
[18:38] <bizhat_user766> hey all
[18:38] <daftykins> "nautilis /media/sdb1/" might work
[18:39] <daftykins> i just hit alt+f2 and typed "nautilus /home" and that worked
[18:39] <jagggy> is 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) suported yet in hardy??
[18:39] <daftykins> use that for your application launcher.
[18:39] <daftykins> it was supported in 7.10 jagggy
[18:39] <jagggy> daftykins, but not in hardy...
[18:39] <daftykins> hardy is newer
[18:40] <daftykins> hence has support
[18:40] <daftykins> :P
[18:40] <ddonky> can anyone help me? my pc doesnt recognize blank cd-rs anymore
[18:40] <jagggy> daftykins, still not the anwser i seek, is it suported or not ?
[18:41] <daftykins> listen
[18:41] <Pici> jagggy: 3945 is working fine right now for me.
[18:41] <daftykins> i just told you it is supported in an OLDER version of Ubuntu, that makes it supported in a NEWER version, logic dictates
[18:42] <dury> hi there channel :)
[18:42] <daftykins> so yes, 8.04 hardy, 3945abg, YES
[18:42] <jagggy> daftykins, false statement, it was unsuported when it started....
[18:42] <doc|work> daftykins: unless support was removed, as sometimes happens :)
[18:42] <jagggy> (when hardy started)
[18:42] <ompaul> daftykins, we do get regression bugs unfortunately now and again
[18:42] <daftykins> well i have a laptop with that chipset for wireless
[18:42] <daftykins> and it works
[18:42] <bdog> anyone know why I can't change the number of desktops?
[18:42] <daftykins> so what more do you want me to say 0o
[18:42] <bdog> it reverts back to 1 when I close it
[18:42] <mekata> hi
[18:42] <jagggy> daftykins, thats what i wanted, a simple yes, ty :)
[18:42] <mekata> where can i find nice wallpaper?
[18:42] <parsek77> how can I install totem-mozilla plugin for firefox2 in 8.04?
[18:43] <daftykins> i did give you a simple yes
[18:43] <carib> Hello folks
[18:43] <daftykins> oh god you get some idiots in here.
[18:43] <jagggy> now you did :)
[18:43] <jagggy> ty daftykins i like you to
[18:43] <parsek77> I reinstalled but it doesnt play mov files in the web
[18:43] <ompaul> daftykins, be nice
[18:43] <lolzer> http://www.gnome-look.org
[18:43] <PdUb101> ok "nautilus /media/sda1/ works.. but why did i have to do nautilus first??
[18:43] <suspect43> okay, found this: http://fosswire.com/2007/08/17/ubuntu-getting-xorgconf-gui/  . i've seen exactly this gui come up when i screwed up my xorg.conf. how do i bring this up again?
[18:43] <dury> where I can Paste which is the url
[18:43] <daftykins> because nautilus is the file browser application
[18:43] <PdUb101> oooh
[18:43] <jayson> Hi, what can I do when a bug report don't have responses for a long time ?
[18:43] <daftykins> by simply telling an application launcher a path, it doesn't know what to do with it
[18:43] <PdUb101> well that explains it
[18:44] <daftykins> ;)
[18:44] <daftykins> it's pretty basic
[18:44] <mekata> can anyone help me how to installing ubuntu
[18:44] <mekata> and use mirc
[18:44] <carib> I am new and trying to install Ubuntu 8.04 Server, but none of my SATA drives are detected. On the drive selection list, what should I choose?
[18:44] <daftykins> download and burn the ISO of desktop
[18:44] <daftykins> put it in and boot from it
[18:44] <PdUb101> sorry im very new, im trying to migrate over from xp/vista because of the horrible affects vista has on my new laptop
[18:44] <kshah> Hi, after detecting I have an ATI chipset, enabling the 3rd party drivers and restarting, my screen resolution has gone DOWN, also my monitor isn't recogonized though I don't know if it ever was.. how can I address this?
[18:44] <daftykins> install it, get to desktop and use synaptic to install "xchat"
[18:44] <ompaul> mekata, use xchat on ubuntu it is similar to but much exceeds mirc
[18:44] <bdog> anyone know why I can't change the number of desktops?
[18:44] <dury> can anyone help me please where to paste?
[18:45] <mekata> i already use mirc but i want to adding remote
[18:45] <mekata> i cant add remote in xchat
[18:45] <kshah> dury: pastebin
[18:45] <jayson> dury: http://paste.ubuntu.com
[18:45] <daftykins> use mIRC under wine then
[18:45] <robg_> carib: the installer will probably detect the drive on which it will install.
[18:45] <jagggy> and eh, is 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) suported in hardy? if so i need to upgrade :)
[18:45] <carib> Installer did not detect any drives at all.
[18:46] <jayson> Hello people, what can I do when a bug report don't have responses for a long time ?
[18:46] <Don_Miguel> Xchat is good, and mIRC works well under WINE
[18:46] <daftykins> that's just a chipset reference, it contains no specific information on what the audio controller is
[18:46] <daftykins> are you sure there's not a second line from "lspci" ?
[18:46] <bdog> irssi>*
[18:46] <robg_> carib: you will have to consult your hardware manufacturer.
[18:46] <jagggy> daftykins, Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) ain't that the sound driver? :s
[18:47] <smallfoot-> check out the most awesomeness mockup for colored themes in ubuntu http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/317/coloredthemeyz9.png and if you like that, then vote for it http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/9190/
[18:47] <carib> Thanks Robg
[18:47] <lolzer> no that is the chipset. not the software driver
[18:47] <kshah> why does enabling the 3rd party ATI drivers end up reducing my total screen resolution options?
[18:47] <daftykins> no, it simply says that the audio controller is a high definition device
[18:47] <jagggy> dang :( well i'll take a bet on it that it will work so, lets upgrade
[18:47] <FD_F> Hello my sound card working grate but my microphone not working any ideas ? , Thanks
[18:47] <daftykins> probably because the new drivers read new information from your monitor and so reduces resolutions you can use kshah
[18:48] <daftykins> is it a CRT or LCD?
[18:48] <suspect43> please, does anyone know how to fix this? how do i enable widescreen monitor in xorg.conf?
[18:48] <SergioCapa> hello people
[18:48] <dury> how do I install packages for english language... now it's in spanish and basque
[18:48] <spiderfire> what video player has the most skins?
[18:49] <lolzer> spiderfire: xine has a few as does mplayer
[18:49] <daftykins> suspect43 are you having problems even after running "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" ?
[18:49] <kshah> daftykins: LCD, Hyundia L90D+ that was what i suspected
[18:49] <suspect43> daftykins: yes
[18:49] <daftykins> is it because the menus in that prog do not have your 1280x800 suspect43 ?
[18:49] <kshah> daftykins: unfortunately i have no idea where i'm going to find the monitor drivers
[18:49] <daftykins> monitors do not need drivers kshah
[18:50] <suspect43> daftykins: dpkg-reconfigure doesn't ask about screen resolutions at all, only keyboard settings.
[18:50] <daftykins> are you using this computer now kshah?
[18:50] <kshah> daftykins: yes
[18:50] <daftykins> did you definitely type "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" ?
[18:50] <suspect43> daftykins: yes
[18:50] <daftykins> well you could try running this same program i'm talking to suspect43 about, kshah
[18:50] <kshah> daftykins: yes, I did that as per a post on a forum
[18:51] <suspect43> kshah: did it ask about screen resolutions at all?
[18:51] <kshah> daftykins: okay, I'll scroll up :)
[18:51] <kshah> no it didn't
[18:51] <suspect43> yeah
[18:51] <suspect43> same prob
[18:51] <kshah> it asked me about keyboard layout and mice
[18:51] <daftykins> hmm you're right
[18:51] <dury> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15371/
[18:51] <AaronH> spiderfire, mplayer has lots of skins
[18:51] <daftykins> i just ran the program on ubuntu server and it only asked about keyboard config yes
[18:52] <Steve-cal> !who | daftykins
[18:52] <daftykins> Steve-cal they can see so don't give me silly advice in future thanks
[18:53] <kshah> daftykins: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/119784 is what i was reading in case you're interested
[18:53] <Don_Miguel> daftykins: it also helps those of us who CAN see ...
[18:53] <gaurav_> hi i have been having problems with the grub loader
[18:53] <daftykins> you might want to describe what you mean there Don_Miguel
[18:53] <suspect43> okay, i added the horizsync and vertrefresh values. now i can select from lots of resoltuins, but when i select 1440x900 i get this weird square resolution
[18:53] <nate305> anyone here using awn on hardy?
[18:53] <suspect43> instead of widescreen
[18:53] <daftykins> i take it you've tried running system -> preferences -> screen resolution -> "detect displays" suspect43 and kshah ?
[18:54] <suspect43> yes
[18:54] <yanek_> ssupect what monitor do you have?
[18:54] <kshah> daftykins: yes, to no avail
[18:54] <robg_> suspect43: Sun Java gave me 1440 x 900 on a standard 19". I did not have to intervene.
[18:54] <suspect43> HP w1907 widescreen lcd. native res is 1440X900@60
[18:54] <ihas1> anyone know why my server install logs in as root automatically?
[18:54] <gaurav_> i mean that there are the old versions in the grub loader which i want to remove
[18:55] <nate305> how do you install extras specificly file-browser-manager.py?
[18:55] <suspect43> robg_: very helpful, thank you. you've trolled me before, so please stop.
[18:55] <raistlinmaje7> if lsusb tells me that a device is connected on for example bus 005 device 002, how do I find the corresponding /dev file?
[18:55] <hwilde> raistlinmaje7, dmesg should tell you
[18:55] <daftykins> raistlinmaje7 : type "dmesg | tail"
[18:56] <hwilde> raistlinmaje7, might try disconnecting and reconnecting and then look at the bottom of dmesg
[18:56] <kshah> daftykins: it looks like my only option is a manual edit of xorg.conf, right?
[18:56] <Don_Miguel> gaurav_: are you talking about the menu choices that come up in GRUB ?
[18:56] <gaurav_> daftykins can u help me with the grub loader
[18:56] <daftykins> most likely kshah yes, if you're sure the graphics driver is good enough to support it
[18:56] <suspect43> tried that, doesn't help much
[18:56] <raistlinmaje7> and then? I get usb4-1
[18:56] <daftykins> what's wrong with GRUB?
[18:56] <raistlinmaje7> is that a dev file?
[18:56] <gaurav_> yes don miguel
[18:56] <hwilde> !grub | kshah
[18:56] <kshah> daftykins: i believe it will, thanks
[18:57] <suspect43> i get a list of resolutions, but when i select them i don't get the actual res
[18:57] <hwilde> !fixres | suspect43
[18:57] <kshah> why am I being told about grub?
[18:57] <hwilde> kshah, sry wrong nick
[18:57] <daftykins> 'cause someone chose the wrong nick ;)
[18:57] <suspect43> hwilde: tried pretty much everything there
[18:57] <hwilde> !grub | gaurav_
[18:57] <raistlinmaje7> I mean, I see that there is a usb4 dev file, but there's also usbdev4.1_ep00 usbdev4.1_ep81 and so on
[18:57] <ihas1> anyone know why a server install would log in as root automatically?
[18:58] <daftykins> you might've forgotten to enter a pass during setup
[18:58] <daftykins> what ver of server?
[18:58] <kshah> interestingly, i had windows dual booted on this machine, the installation became corrupt and I had to force the windows partition to mount yesterday in Ubuntu to recover my data
[18:58] <_0tt0v0nc4t_> where do you find all these bot commands?
[18:58] <Don_Miguel> gaurav_: I think you want to be VERY fast when grub loads,
[18:59] <_0tt0v0nc4t_> for ubottu
[18:59] <rawmeat> hello, its not possible to blacklist the speedstep-centrino module and load the acpi-cpufreq. :( ive did something wrong and now it seems like its not turning back.
[18:59] <ihas1> dafkins - 8.04 server
[18:59] <rawmeat> how can i get acpi-cpufreq as standard?
[18:59] <da_samus> hallo
[18:59] <ringer> how can i get the physics working on my kiba dock
[18:59] <daftykins> hmm i've installed 8.04 server several times recently and not had that problem
[18:59] <smehmood> hey all, i'm having some video problems. I'm trying to use nvidia-settings, but it tells me i'm not using its X driver. so, i do what it says and run nvidia-xconfig. It modifies my xorg.config file. i restart my X server, and nvidia-settings still tells me that i'm not using the X driver. the main problem is that im stuck at 800x600. i should be at 1280x800
[19:00] <kshah> daftykins: it would appear that everyone is experiencing the detection problem, perhaps it would be worthy as a channel topic...
[19:00] <Don_Miguel>  gaurav_: I think you want to be VERY fast when grub loads, and you can then carefully edit those lines of text in the menu ... read the info in the links shown before ( scroll back up for those )
[19:00] <da_samus> i am a really new linux user and i can't find how to install the drivers for my modem any idea ?
[19:00] <daftykins> smehmood "cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep driver" in terminal
[19:00] <Dante123> hi all, just setup a barebones pc kit that came with evga 650i mobo, 2gb ram, and sata hd (supposed to be 250 gb) but windows setup sees it as 130gb.  Wanted to install ubuntu linux but system hangs at some reference to sata....so that is why I went with windows.  Could there be something I need to setup in the bios?
[19:01] <m4rtz> da_samus: what's the name of the modem
[19:01] <daftykins> were i more regular here, topic considerations would be viable perhaps, if this channel works that way ;)
[19:01] <vorondil_> Hi everyone.  I suppose this isn't a ubuntu-specific question, but since I'm on a ubuntu machine, I'll ask here.  Is there any way to determine the maximum number of hard links you can make to one file?  If so, how can I do it?
[19:01] <Dante123> If I don't do nosplash it hangs on the ubuntu logo with the orange bar stuck
[19:01] <ddonky> how come my dvd burner doesnt recognize cd-rs anymore
[19:01] <smehmood> daftykins: that's odd... it came up empty. i thought i saw a driver line in there, but at this point, ive looked at tons of xorg.conf's
[19:01] <vorondil_> (On ext3, to be clear.)
[19:01] <smehmood> daftykins: so there's no driver specified... what's the best way to rectify this?
[19:01] <daftykins> Dante123 windows XP pre- service pack 1 has a logical block addressing limitation that prevents it seeing disks bigger than 127GB, you need to install to a small partition for C: and then upgrade service pack for it to see the disk properly
[19:01] <raistlinmaje7> so which /dev file is 4-1?
[19:02] <daftykins> otherwise Dante123 slipstream service pack 3 into an installation CD and XP setup will see it correctly during installation
[19:02] <daftykins> pastebin your dmesg please raistlinmaje7
[19:02] <daftykins> after just having plugged the USB key in
[19:02] <smehmood> daftykins: oh, that's because it should have been 'grep Driver' it is specified, as "nvidia" in my file
[19:02] <ffm> How can I know if a spesific nvidia card is supported?
[19:02] <raistlinmaje7> its not a usb key, its a usb device, I just want to get raw input
[19:02] <le2> has anyone here compiled libfprint?
[19:02] <cerebrate> ffm: check the hardware compatibility list
[19:03] <ffm> cerebrate: which is where?
[19:03] <raistlinmaje7> also, there are all of two lines, do I have to pastebin that?
[19:03] <cerebrate> ffm: one second while I find it
[19:03] <Soopa> My router isn't getting my Ubuntu machine's host name.. is there a common reason why that might be?
[19:03] <Soopa> it's a D-Link EBR-2310
[19:03] <cerebrate> ffm: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia
[19:03] <daftykins> does it matter that the router does not see its' hostname?
[19:03] <Soopa> it sees my Windows box fine
[19:03] <Soopa> well, no, but it used to
[19:04] <Soopa> was just wondering why
[19:04] <ffm> cerebrate: merci
[19:04] <daftykins> have you upgraded version between then and now?
[19:04] <Dante123> daftykins I really want ubuntu on this machine but it keeps hanging and won't install.  This is quad core do I need a 64 bit version of Ubuntu?  Shouldn't 32 install?
[19:04] <kibibyte> hi
[19:04] <daftykins> no 32-bit is fine Dante123
[19:04] <Soopa> yes, I did a fresh install
[19:04] <kibibyte> is it possible to log to shell as root without waisitng time 100 a day writing sudo ?
[19:04] <daftykins> are you booting a ubuntu 8.04 desktop i386 CD Dante123 ?
[19:05] <kshah> can I reinit the process which reads xorg.conf w/o rebooting? or does that imply restarting X?
[19:05] <raistlinmaje7> kibibyte: just type in su
[19:05] <Dante123> daftykins yes I am
[19:05] <daftykins> "sudo su" before running stuff kibibyte
[19:05] <daftykins> it's simply restarting X yes, kshah
[19:05] <kibibyte> raistlinmaje7, daftykins but i want log as root to terminal
[19:05] <daftykins> ctrl+alt+backspace in X, or "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[19:05] <kshah> thanks again
[19:05] <daftykins> np
[19:05] <raistlinmaje7> that will do it
[19:05] <debian> Would ubuntu 64bit be able to utilze 192GB ram?
[19:06]  * EmJay| is back
[19:06] <rawmeat> how can i make acpi-cpufreq the preferred module?
[19:06] <telecentro> EU
[19:06] <raistlinmaje7> 192!?
[19:06] <rawmeat> blacklisting speedstep-centrino didnt helped. :(
[19:06] <daftykins> up to several terabytes of RAM i think yes debian
[19:06] <Dante123> daftykins could there be a bios setting that needs to be setup that might be causing the problem....or perhaps graphics
[19:06] <debian> daftykins: 16exebytes to be exact, max with 64bit.
[19:06] <daftykins> why ask if you knew the sum.
[19:07] <debian> What about 4 quad cores?
[19:07] <debian> daftykins: Just making sure...
[19:07] <daftykins> possibly Dante123, can you take a digicam picture of where it stalls?
[19:07] <Dante123> hang on...will try
[19:07] <sagredo> Question. Can I burn the Ubuntu CD to a DVD disc?
[19:08] <m4rtz> sure sagredo
[19:08] <Dante123> should apic mode be enabled or disabled in bios daftykins
[19:08] <debian> sagredo: not the iso i think...
[19:08] <robg_> sagredo: DVD costs more than CD.
[19:08] <m4rtz> XD
[19:08] <kdubois> does a folder have to be executable in order to cd into it?
[19:08] <debian> robg_: Not if you steal them from work
[19:08] <sagredo> robg_: all I have is a DVD
[19:08] <kibibyte> whos using windows
[19:08] <sagredo> debian: it's the iso
[19:08] <daftykins> i'm not familiar with ever needing to play with an "APIC" mode in BIOS, and i'm very experienced with configuring BIOSs Dante123
[19:08] <cerebrate> kdubois: no
[19:08] <robg_> sagredo: we use CD because it is cheap.
[19:08] <debian> sagredo: What os are you running?
[19:08] <m4rtz> I don't think so kdubois
[19:08] <debian> To burn the disk?
[19:09] <Dante123> daftykins i have to do nosplash to get any results that might be useful...hang on...Okay will leave apic as is
[19:09] <kdubois> then why if i do chmod -x *, i cant get in any of my folders?
[19:09] <daftykins> you don't really need to disable nosplash Dante123, you can switch between screens using ctrl+alt+ function keys from F1 to F12 to see boot progress, unless it properly locks up i guess...
[19:10] <raistlinmaje7> also, can I image a usb flash drive to an ISO?
[19:10] <daftykins> lol folders can't be executable
[19:10] <Dante123> daftykins what about memory timing in bios
[19:10] <daftykins> don't run "chmod +x *" that will break things.
[19:10] <daftykins> what are you trying to do kdubois ?
[19:10] <debian> I want to run a system with four quad cores, would Ubuntu support this?
[19:10] <gaurav_> please can someone help me in editng my grub loader
[19:10] <Oval> Hi guys.
[19:10] <ltracy_> debian, sure, why not?
[19:10] <cerebrate> debian: it should.
[19:11] <daftykins> debian the hardware you're talking about really doesn't sound like something appropriate for a more home user system like ubuntu ;x
[19:11] <gaurav_> i want to remove the previos versions
[19:11] <smehmood> so X doesn't appear to be reading from xorg.conf. I tried blanked the file so it only contained a newline, and deleting it completely, and neither had any effect. does anyone know why this is the case?
[19:11] <debian> ltracy_: I need a strange  kernel
[19:11] <ltracy_> debian, why strange?
[19:11] <smehmood> my /etc/X11 dir has tons of
[19:11] <kdubois> daftykins: i'm trying to determine if a folder needs to be executable in order to cd into it
[19:11] <smehmood> xorg.conf.\d+
[19:11] <debian> daftykins: Not? If I want to play games, then it is best to have the entire HD on a ramdisk.
[19:11] <robg_> daftikins: ubuntu is an industrial quality product.
[19:11] <Oval> SFTP over Nautilus is portraying persistent problems with authentication (a very prominent one being a frozen 'Authentication Required' window).  Is there a way for me to help debug this and report it?
[19:11] <debian> ltracy_: It couldn't be normal...
[19:11] <cerebrate> smehmood: what directory are you in?
[19:12] <smehmood> cerebrate: /etc/X11
[19:12] <daftykins> robg_ that has no relevance to the question at hand
[19:12] <daftykins> saying a product is for category x does not define its' hardware support.
[19:12] <ltracy_> debian, the SMP in the linux kernel supports more than 16 CPU's.. so it'll be fine
[19:12] <Dante123> daftykins what about raid?  currently disabled
[19:12] <tdobson> does anyone know much about V4l? specifically v4l2?
[19:12] <tdobson> tdobson: what does the overlay bit mean here: /dev/video0 [v4l2]: no overlay support
[19:12] <debian> ltracy_: Ok, 4*4=16cores...
[19:12] <robg_> daftikins: Europeans use Ubuntu in business and government.
[19:12] <daftykins> Dante123 anything relating to the SATA ports on the chipset may cause the stalling if that's why it stalls after SATA as you say
[19:13] <daftykins> a picture woulds till be great though ;)
[19:13] <tRSS> is there a way to list all the updates without installing them? something like yum check-update for ubuntu?
[19:13] <daftykins> it usually prompts you whether you want to continue anyway so i just run it tRSS
[19:13] <kshah> ... that was a disaster.. now i'm in 800X600 lol
[19:13] <m4rtz> robg_ : government in germany is def not using linux/ unix
[19:14] <tRSS> daftykins: i am actually trying to automate the update process, hence, i just want to list all the updates before actually installing them
[19:14] <Dante123> daftykins yes, it seems to stall when doing stuff with sata.  Do you have any bios suggestions around that?  Raid?
[19:14] <robg_> m4rtz: French Gendarmerie: 80000 units.
[19:14] <daftykins> see if it boots disabling all the SATA ports entirely Dante123
[19:14] <daftykins> then you know it's SATA
[19:14] <smehmood> so i just fixed my screen resolution problems by deleting both 'xorg.conf' and 'xorg.conf.failsafe'. anyone know what's going on?
[19:14] <daftykins> or the HDD you have connected causing ubuntu to stall
[19:14] <m4rtz> nice ;) that's the way I like it hrhr
[19:14] <smehmood> which file might it be reading from now?
[19:14] <m11> robg_: i read that macedoina is going for 180.000 pc units with ubuntu
[19:15] <NamTCM> Hi all
[19:15] <Don_Miguel> gaurav_:when you first boot up, you have 2-3 seconds to respond and then you can enter grub and edit those "old versions" out ... it does help to read the HOWTO and the other info links ...
[19:15] <daftykins> i think it reads the monitors capability on every boot smehmood
[19:15] <Dante123> currently all of the sata ports are disabled....with raid disabled in bios
[19:15] <Dante123> daftykins
[19:15] <robg_> m11: Europe has no choice. Microsoft is not providing usable product.
[19:15] <ltracy_> what the heck is the name of that DVD burning software..
[19:15] <NamTCM> I want change my IRC's password, how to i do?
[19:15] <daftykins> all the ports are disabled? surely not?
[19:15] <tox>  /msg ubottu etiquette
[19:15] <cerebrate> ltracy_: brasero
[19:15] <m11> robg_: europe has choice and they choose ubuntu ;)
[19:15] <tox> oops
[19:16] <Dante123> maybe I should enable raid and sata 1 where hd is daftykins?
[19:16] <smehmood> daftykins: perhaps... but its not like it generated another xorg.conf or xorg.conf.failsafe. so it must be getting configuration settings from some other file
[19:16] <gaurav_> thanks don but there are old versins of ubuntu which i want to remove
[19:16] <m4rtz> robg_: in ger they r still using xp or nt
[19:16] <daftykins> smehmood no, it's quite feasible for it to have some process auto generating on boot.
[19:16] <raistlinmaje7> anyone? how do I take "Bus 005 Device 004" and get the corresponding /dev file?
[19:16] <ltracy_> cerebrate, thanks
[19:16] <robg_> m4rtz: everybody is still on XP but many will migrate to Ubuntu if MS does not provide usable alternative.
[19:16] <Dante123> what about acpi function daftykins?  Any suggestion there...currenlty enabled
[19:16] <daftykins> raistlinmaje7: have you tried running "sudo fdisk -l" and see if it lists the /dev/ of the USB key?
[19:17] <ajopaul_> have nvidia card on hardy compiz enabled  Xorg and compiz.real take up 70 to 80 % of cpu .. is that normal ?
[19:17] <razaccour> i got a question
[19:17] <daftykins> just experiment Dante123
[19:17] <ajopaul_> this drains my laptop battery very quickly..
[19:17] <daftykins> your computer sounds very odd.
[19:17] <Dante123> okay.....will get screen shot on reboot...thanks.
[19:17] <raistlinmaje7> its not a flash drive
[19:17] <NamTCM> How to change username IRC password?
[19:17] <NamTCM> How to change username IRC password?
[19:17]  * daftykins slaps NamTCM around a bit with a large trout
[19:17] <daftykins> don't repeat yourself.
[19:17] <razaccour> i don't have a printer, the library does. will i be able to print xcf images from a windows computer?
[19:17] <debian> What is the easiest way to install ubuntu on a real partition without cd-boot?
[19:18] <akazawa> NamTCM go to #freenode
[19:18] <Don_Miguel> gaurav_: OH ! then you need to REALLY uninstall them ... editing grub will only remove those entries IN GRUB, they do NOT UNINSTALL any previous versions ... only the links that would load them if they still exist, as I understand it ..
[19:18] <cerebrate> razaccour: xcf images are gimp project files basically.  You'll want to save them as a jpeg most likely
[19:18] <m4rtz> robg_: join #ubuntu-offtopic to discuss this... cuz I don't see that commin
[19:18] <peachberry> I have a question.  Is it possible to install ubuntu on a hard drive without altering the boot information on another hard drive with vista installed?
[19:18] <lolzer> you know, I've always wondered how people take screenshots while the system is booting
[19:18] <razaccour> how do i save them as jpeg?
[19:18] <NamTCM> Ok, thx
[19:19] <hacksilber> peachberry: do you have multiple harddrives?
[19:19] <daftykins> using virtualisation software like VMWare lolzer
[19:19] <akazawa> lolzer: what is this about screenshots while booting?
[19:19] <peachberry> hackssilber: yeah
[19:19] <robg_> peachberry: can you not disconnect during install ?
[19:19] <djtamse> hello  does any one here  use  ubuntu ?
[19:19] <peachberry> I can
[19:19] <lolzer> oic. yeah, that makes sense
[19:19] <Bshkot> uxac
[19:19] <akazawa> ah
[19:19] <daftykins> peachberry if you want ubuntu to boot as well as Vista, you will need to modify the vista boot HDD
[19:19] <ajopaul_> djtamse, this is #ubuntu
[19:19] <peachberry> will that work?  just disconnect the vista drive when I'm installing
[19:19] <daftykins> unless you're swapping hard disks every time
[19:19] <djtamse> ha ha okay  im just new here didnt no :-D
[19:20] <peachberry> daftykins:  I don't want to dual boot
[19:20] <daftykins> yes but you'll have to disconnect it every time to boot ubuntu
[19:20] <daftykins> or change your boot order in BIOS
[19:20] <peachberry> just be able to switch the boot order in BIOS to load which operating system I want.
[19:20] <daftykins> very tedious :P
[19:20] <hacksilber> peachberry, if you make your second drive your master and the vista drive the slave you shouldn't have to alter the vista installation
[19:20] <djtamse> im  woundering how to get  a proper  driver to my ati X1300
[19:20] <cerebrate> razaccour: if you're in GIMP, go to file -> save as, and then down near the bottom of the dialog box that came up, there's a drop down box that lets you select the filetype
[19:20] <ajopaul_> !ati > djtamse
[19:20] <razaccour> thanks
[19:20] <peachberry> hacksliber:  okay thanks a bunch.  so ubuntu won't try to alter the boot table of the vista as long as it's a slave drive?
[19:20] <djtamse> ?
[19:21] <deltaray2> Is there any equivilent CLI program to RedHat's chkconfig program in Debian/Ubuntu?
[19:21] <daftykins> that's what i need to find out deltaray2, so set some services on boot in ubuntu server
[19:21] <daftykins> peachberry if it can see the vista HDD it will modify it
[19:21] <lolzer> deltaray2: sysv-rc-conf
[19:21] <tharis20> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? <- I have this error when i'm trying to sudo apt-get install audacious
[19:21] <backslash7> Hi everyone
[19:21] <backslash7> A simple question:
[19:22] <deltaray2> lolzer, I don't have that command, is that an extra package to install?
[19:22] <Dante123> daftykins i have the photos.....can I send them to you?
[19:22] <backslash7> When I cd to /home and list directories, there are some users, just normal. And a home folder "guest" (has no user) whiches background is green. Why is that ?
[19:22] <lolzer> deltaray2: you will need to install sysv-rc-conf first then from a terminal : sudo sysv-rc-conf
[19:22] <daftykins> use a free hosting website like www.imageshack.us
[19:22] <peachberry> daftykins:  oh.  I'll just disconnect it when I'm installing.  what about after I installed it?  like will it try to alter the boot table after the initial install?  I mean after I install ubuntu on that hard drive with only that hard drive and then connect the vista hard drive.
[19:22] <cerebrate> tharis20: make sure you don't have synaptic, add/remove programs, or are installing anything else from the command line
[19:22] <daftykins> @ Dante123
[19:22] <deltaray2> Nevermind
[19:22] <tharis20> cerebrate, thanks ;)
[19:22] <daftykins> no it won't peachberry
[19:22] <daftykins> it'll either run or not run
[19:23] <Dante123> daftykins how do I sent them to you?
[19:23] <peachberry> daftykins:  okay.  thanks for the help.  I'll give it a try.  :)
[19:23] <daftykins> use a free hosting website like www.imageshack.us Dante123
[19:23] <backslash7> Anyone please ????
[19:23] <backslash7> ls => directory with green background ; WHY ?
[19:24] <lolzer> deltaray2: sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf   -  it's small in size and very useful if you are used to chkconfig
[19:24] <Assid> heya
[19:24] <lolzer> it's the second thing I install after firestarter
[19:24] <backslash7> Would someone please answer my question? I'm not able to find anything in google. "ls" => directory with green background
[19:24] <backslash7> why is that ?
[19:25] <Assid> err.. ubuntuforums down?
[19:25] <daftykins> "ls -l" show anything backslash7 ?
[19:25] <daftykins> (about its' permissions)
[19:25] <razaccour> it worked, thanks very much
[19:25] <deltaray2> lolzer, thanks
[19:25] <backslash7> thanks daftykins. Sure, some directories, one of them has green background, why is that ?
[19:25] <razaccour> cerebrate
[19:25] <cerebrate> welcome
[19:25] <backslash7> ah

[19:26] <justprogramming8> hi i have problem  with pppoeconf when i write this command  in terminal i have this massage     	 	 	 	 	 	   Sorry, I scanned 1 interface, but the Access Concentrator of your provider did not respond. Please check your network and modem cables. Another reason for the scan failure may also be another running pppoe process which controls the modem.
[19:27] <cerebrate> backslash7: that is probably a very bad security practice, but sure, go ahead
[19:27] <ajopaul_> hardy upgrade /nvidia, have xorg and compiz.real take up 70 / 80 % of cpu . is this normal ?
[19:27] <skillet> backslash7, thats what it is alraedy more then likely... chmod 755
[19:27] <backslash7> Ah of course, files don't need to be executed
[19:27] <lee_> is there any way to make X Vsync?
[19:27] <cerebrate> ajopaul_: no, that doesn't sound right
[19:27] <backslash7> 755 = ? ; 777 = ? cerebrate or skillet

[19:28] <ajopaul_> cerebrate, any know reasons?
[19:28] <lee_> is there any way to make X Vsync?
[19:28] <CorbinFox> for no apparent reason, when I press on an arrow key in firefox it has a little flashing line just like how a word processor has when you are typing.  If i press down, it scrolls down line by line, and on websites that can be sporadic. has this happened to anyone else before?  any fix?
[19:28] <ma3x> hello i want to know what application (package) is used in live ubuntu cd to support the hotkeys such as Fn+F8 (screen brightness, volume adjustment) ?
[19:28] <ma3x> what package does that?
[19:29] <justprogramming8> any one help me
[19:29] <justprogramming8> ???
[19:29] <cerebrate> ajopaul_: I have no clue.  Make sure you've got the correct nvidia driver installed is about all I can think of
[19:29] <ShadowBelmolve> anyone can say a program to video straming? i need to move direct from camera( by firewire) to server, in windows i have used the Windows Media Encoder
[19:29] <skillet> backslash7, http://www.zzee.com/solutions/linux-permissions.shtml
[19:29] <Slart> CorbinFox: I think that's a feature.. something like cursor navigation
[19:29] <cerebrate> ShadowBelmolve: check add/remove programs for 'video editing'
[19:30] <CorbinFox> slart: then why would it just start at random?  i didnt do anything with any settings or preferences....it is kind of messing with me right now, i don't like this "feature"
[19:30] <backslash7> skillet: Just browsing there (through google) :D But thanks
[19:30] <backslash7> Hope this works with samba
[19:30] <Slart> CorbinFox: you probably pressed some weirdo key combination by mistake.. I found it the last time it happened to me.. I think I can find it again =)
[19:30] <CorbinFox> ah, i found the setting....i wonder how it got selected...considering i havent been in my firefox preferences in a week or so
[19:31] <ajopaul_> cerebrate, ok, now thats my confusion here.. when most complex 3d function work fine viz games cubes etc. how can i conclude if my driver is incorrect
[19:31] <ShadowBelmolve> cerebrate: return nothing =/
[19:31] <lee_> is there any way to make X Vsync?
[19:32] <CorbinFox> slart: you know what! earlier today i was turning down my amarok volume (i use a key combo of Winkey and arrows) and it gave me that stupid message of caret browsing (which isnt unusual) but there was another blank window that I just closed without clicking yes or no to.  it could have been that
[19:32] <MrGlass> hi
[19:32] <Slart> CorbinFox: that sounds very plausible
[19:32] <daftykins> i'm sorry Dante123 i have no idea what to say about that problem, you can try googling for "ubuntu driver sd" or something but i don't know what to suggest
[19:32] <cerebrate> ShadowBelmolve: I believe you want to install the program "Kino"
[19:32] <MrGlass> I just installed a new sata hard drive in my pc
[19:32] <Slart> CorbinFox: ah.. it's F7
[19:32] <MrGlass> how do i get ubuntu to recognize, format, and mount it?
[19:32] <daftykins> MrGlass
[19:32] <CorbinFox> hmm, i wasnt anywhere near the F# keys
[19:32] <daftykins> open a terminal window, type "sudo fdisk -l"
[19:33] <cerebrate> ajopaul_: go into synaptic, and tell me what nvidia-glx package you are using
[19:33] <daftykins> you should be given a line about the new hard disk, correct ?
[19:33] <ajopaul_> ok
[19:33] <ShadowBelmolve> cerebrate: i have kino, but, to sendo the video to server? i have see the icecast2, ah, i need to sendo camera -> server in real-time
[19:33] <CorbinFox> ah well, it is fixed either way, thanks for the help :D
[19:33] <dkT> How can I give full access to a folder and its subfolder for apache (sudo chown -hR apache DIR doesn't works)???
[19:33] <MrGlass> hold, ill go try. laptop is 5 feet from the PC
[19:33] <Dante123> daftykins I tried puppy linux livecd and it got hung up too....do you think it could be related to dvd drive (only cd type driver there).  I have it plugged into mobo ide pins via 80 pin cable that came with mobo....hd is sata
[19:33] <cerebrate> ShadowBelmolve: That sounds something like using vlc to set up a stream.  I'm not entirely sure how to do that, and I don't know what software would be able to do that other than vlc
[19:34] <Dante123> although windows installed off dvd drive fine
[19:34] <daftykins> it's possible Dante123 i haven't tried booting linux from a PATA CD drive on a modern SATA system so i can't comment
[19:34] <Pici> backslash7: fyi (I was curious) I believe files with a green background like that mean that they have "search permission is granted to others, and the restricted deletion flag is set"
[19:35] <MrGlass> daftykins: it lists the new hd, in a seperate list from the mounted hd
[19:35] <cerebrate> daftykins: my desktop uses sata hd's and a pata cd-rom drive.  It works with ubuntu fine
[19:35] <backslash7> ah okay Pici thank you :D
[19:35] <thingfish> Dante123: there should be no problem booting off the drive.
[19:35] <daftykins> good good, what /dev/ was it?
[19:35] <daftykins> /dev/sdb ?
[19:35] <ShadowBelmolve> cerebrate:  i cannot install vlc, says various of dependences is not stable =/
[19:35] <MrGlass> yes
[19:35] <thingfish> Dante123: I use a PATA optical drive with SATA hard drive and no problems.
[19:35] <daftykins> ok "sudo apt-get install gparted" MrGlass
[19:35] <cerebrate> ShadowBelmolve: attempt to correct that by opening up Synaptic, and finding vlc there.
[19:36] <MrGlass> k. does that require an internet connection?
[19:36] <Assid> anyone here playing with openvz
[19:36] <daftykins> yes it does
[19:36] <gaurav_> the window of grub loader shows other os
[19:36] <MrGlass> hmm, k

[19:36] <MrGlass> but ill grab the gparted boot disk
[19:36] <MrGlass> shoulda thought of that
[19:36] <Dante123> I'm wondering if I should put another regular cd drive in this machine and try booting ubuntu livecd with that
[19:36] <ShadowBelmolve> cerebrate: i have tryed, but in synaptic is the same
[19:36] <daftykins> MrGlass wait
[19:37] <daftykins> type "parted" it should be installed already
[19:37] <ShadowBelmolve> cerebrate:  Depende: vlc-nox mas não será instalado
[19:37] <ShadowBelmolve>  Depende: ttf-dejavu  but it is not installable
[19:37] <robg_> Dante123: are you keeping your finger on F8 during CD boot ?
[19:38] <MrGlass> indeed it is
[19:38] <cerebrate> ShadowBelmolve: go attempt to install ttf-dejavu
[19:38] <MrGlass> daftykins: how do i format this? needs to be ntfs, unfortunately
[19:38] <I440r> ok, i have a MAJOR gripe about something that the ubuntu install does
[19:38] <I440r> this is VERY annoying
[19:38] <daftykins> ntfs :(

[19:39] <I440r> why does the ubuntu install have to even TOUCH my hardware clock
[19:39] <ShadowBelmolve> dejavu*
[19:39] <dury> http://paste.ubuntu.com/15371/
[19:39] <jpds> I440r: to set the time?
[19:39] <cerebrate> l440r: so it can figure out what time it is?
[19:39] <gieswein>  /j #ubuntu-de
[19:39] <I440r> i installed ubuntu to an external usb drive and at the end of the install it said "now setting your hardware clock"
[19:39] <I440r> my clock WAS set. it is now AFU
[19:39] <I440r> ubuntu should NOT set the clock to find out what time it is
[19:39] <cerebrate> ShadowBelmolve: are there any other dejavu packages?
[19:39] <daftykins> i'm afraid i haven't used "parted" much personally MrGlass but typing "print" shows the current disks etc and "help" will give you command help
[19:40] <iam9376> how can you determine what is using the hard drive
[19:40] <I440r> this sooooooooo wrong!
[19:40] <Dante123> is there anything wrong with hooking up dvd drive with 80 pin cable to ide pins on mobo?  or should it be 40?
[19:40] <MrGlass> yeah, ubuntu killed my time too. I just reset it in windows
[19:40] <MrGlass> thanks daftykins
[19:40] <jpds> I440r: so fix it with NTP or something
[19:40] <daftykins> I440r being angry about it won't help anything
[19:40] <gieswein> j/ #ubuntu-de
[19:40] <Pici> I440r: This is a support channel, I suggest you log a bug if you think this is a problem.
[19:40] <I440r> until i did this ubunto instal i could boot between windows and linux and my time was correct in both cases
[19:40] <MrGlass> i think ill just get the live gparted
[19:40] <tyler_> so i have a smb fileshare and i go to places network then choose the music drive....then the music drive appears on my deskto that says music on amd....im trying to find this mount in amarok and its not under media where the rest are where is it?
[19:40] <MrGlass> ive used it before
[19:40] <lolzer> iam9376: from terminal type: top
[19:40] <I440r> jpds i have done so and every time i boot now my time is wrong.
[19:40] <ShadowBelmolve> cerebrate: no, if i search by "ttf-dejavu" only show, ttf-dejavu-core and ttf-bitsream-vera
[19:40] <daftykins> gparted is nice :)
[19:40] <genii> Dante123: Should not matter the ribbon. It will just use it to decide what level of UDMA it can use
[19:40] <I440r> ubuntu has NO right to mess with my hardware clock. why does it need to
[19:40] <I440r> its WRONG
[19:40] <I440r> big time
[19:41] <jpds> !ntp | I440r
[19:41] <daftykins> I440r it's your own fault for installing ubuntu with UTC time
[19:41] <MrGlass> I440r
[19:41] <iam9376> lolzer: top doesnt show disk activity per application
[19:41] <daftykins> :P
[19:41] <Pici> I440r: Calm down.
[19:41] <Pici> daftykins: be nice.
[19:41] <tyler_> shouldnt it appear in media once its mounted or shows up on desktop?
[19:41] <I440r> there is no reason why an install should touch my hardware clock
[19:41] <daftykins> i'm finding it really hard in here, Pici
[19:41] <I440r> pici im not foaming at the mouth
[19:41] <daftykins> i'm gonna go now anyway, came to get help and ended up helping myself
[19:41] <daftykins> such a bad habit :(
[19:41] <daftykins> bye all o/
[19:42] <gaurav_> mr floodnbot kindly help
[19:42] <Dante123> genii thanks
[19:42] <Pici> I440r: If you want this to change for the future you need to file a bug at bugs.ubuntu.com  The developers arent watching in here for every issue.
[19:42] <I440r> why does the ubuntu install ever touch the hardware clock
[19:42] <genii> Dante123: np
[19:42] <MrGlass> I440r: this is a support channel. None of these guys have anything to do with what the install did. Calm down. Im sure theyll help you fix the issue
[19:42] <combo> hi! i've just confugred PPPoE dialup and have a question, how to fast reset this connection so my IP would be changed?
[19:42] <kibibyte> do you know some tool to read image from scratched dvd? i have dvd , i can play it but when im using k3b it stops at 45% when making image from dvd becaouse of read error
[19:42] <alan_m> I440r, it really just checks if the clocks set to UTC or not, thats all as far as i know.
[19:43] <gordonjcp> kibibyte: dd
[19:43] <kibibyte> what is it
[19:43] <gordonjcp> kibibyte: man dd
[19:43] <ajopaul_> cerebrate, sory for the delay its 169.12+<IP_ADDRESS>-17.36 nvidia-glx-new
[19:43] <gordonjcp> kibibyte: there's an option to ignore errors and continue
[19:43] <tyler_> so i have a smb fileshare and i go to places network then choose the music drive....then the music drive appears on my deskto that says music on amd....im trying to find this mount in amarok and its not under media where the rest are where is it?
[19:43] <kibibyte> where??
[19:43] <I440r> alan_m "now SETTING yoru hardware clock"  and after that message booting back and forth between windows and linux i have to fix my clock
[19:43] <kibibyte> in dd?
[19:43] <tyler_> shouldnt it appear in media once its mounted or shows up on desktop?
[19:43] <gordonjcp> kibibyte: ok, so some of the data will be lost, but you ought to be able to recover at least some of the files
[19:43] <Dante123> robg_ no i wasnt' holding f8 down...should I?
[19:44] <combo> 'fast way to reset' - i mean without loggin out :P
[19:44] <I440r> my computer used to know what time it was no matter which OS i booted to
[19:44] <gordonjcp> kibibyte: the option is "noerror" or something
[19:44] <gordonjcp> combo: What exactly are you trying to do?
[19:44] <cerebrate> ajopaul_: the only thing I can think of is installing the nvidia-glx (no 'new'), but I don't know if that'll fix the problem.
[19:44] <kibibyte> gordonjcp, in dd?
[19:44] <gordonjcp> kibibyte: yes
[19:44] <MrGlass> It assumes that your hardware clock was set wrong, and tries to fix it. It somehow set my clock back 3 hours too. I just went and set it manually again
[19:44] <debian> Is 8.04 newest ubuntu?
[19:44] <combo> gordonjcp: i want to reset my PPPoE connection, so i would have other IP adress
[19:44] <ajopaul_> cerebrate, ok will give a try for tat..
[19:44] <robg_> Dante123: when booting from CD you MUST keep your finger on F8 (boot options key) until well into boot.
[19:44] <combo> gordonjcp: it is usefull with rapidshare, etc. ;P
[19:45] <gordonjcp> combo: power cycle the modem?
[19:45] <gaurav_> this is what i am facing every day.please help me remove these os
[19:45] <combo> gordonjcp: probably yes :)
[19:45] <thingfish> robg_: that's funny, I've never heard of that before.  Is this something peculiar to laptops?
[19:45] <I440r> how do i fix it so that i dont have to constantly fix my clock?
[19:45] <Dante123> robg_ will try that

[19:47] <lw0x15> yo what's the file called where i can change the right click menu options ? (fluxbox)
[19:47] <thingfish> robg_: not on most computers
[19:47] <debian> How do I make wubi use the iso I allready have downloaded?
[19:48] <thingfish> robg_: most computers, you put in a livecd, hit enter once, and you're off and running
[19:48] <Dante123> robg_ tried that......held f8 for a couple of minutes....then dvd drive stopped spinning....still nothing
[19:48] <robg_> Dante123: look up the boot options key on your machine in the documentation.
[19:48] <The_PHP_Jedi> wpa_supplicant isn't wanting to connect for some reason (using ndiswrapper). Here's the debug output: http://slexy.org/view/s21BkjpQtb -- it works with the same configuration in my old Ubuntu install, and I can connect using debian. :-s
[19:48] <thingfish> or even without doing anything, most machines will boot straight to the primary optical drive as long as it's set that way in BIOS>
[19:48] <Dante123> robg_ i have in bios to boot from cd first.  holding f8 is not making a difference
[19:49] <NamTCM> I have a source file. How to build it to deb file to install in ubuntu?
[19:49] <amenado> thingfish-> thats dependent on how the bios is configured
[19:49] <lolzer> I440r: go to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime and scroll down until you see: Make Windows use UTC
[19:49] <Dante123> but worth a shot I guess.  robg_
[19:49] <robg_> Dante123: Keep pressing the key to force the machine to boot from CD.
[19:50] <orehon> Anyone from Japan?
[19:50] <Dante123> the machine is booting from cd......the problem is that the boot process is haging.....see this pic  http://img238.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img4399lc1.jpg
[19:50] <erUSUL> !jp
[19:51] <NamTCM> How to build a deb file from source file?
[19:51] <iam9376> there has to be some what to determine what application is causing all this disk activity
[19:51] <robg_> Dante123: Either faulty hardware or faulty CD.
[19:51] <dury> ohio
[19:51] <The_PHP_Jedi> NamTCM, ./configure    and then run 'make install' (you should be root to do these)
[19:51] <Dante123> I'm going to take out the wireless card (just in case it is causing a problem) and then put a new cd drive in....
[19:52] <genii> NamTCM: Google should tell you some things about the app checkinstall
[19:52] <rich_freecomm> Has anyone been able to get Swfdec Flash Player to work? (curious)
[19:52] <combo> any ideas? :/
[19:53] <amenado> iam9376-> look if an entry is active at that time
[19:53] <evanderv> Hi guys for some reason I can no longer open up synaptic package manager
[19:53] <amenado> iam9376-> look if an entry in cron* is active at that time
[19:53] <evanderv> I see the start window running
[19:53] <evanderv> but then it stops
[19:54] <iam9376> amenado: how
[19:54] <amenado> iam9376-> look in the crontab
[19:54] <erUSUL> !checkinstall > NamTCM
[19:54] <rich_freecomm> evanderv: does it report another instance?
[19:54] <_paneb> how can i find out whether my video card is pci express or agp?
[19:54] <evanderv> no
[19:54] <amenado> iam9376-> or use top   to see what process is going on
[19:54] <evanderv> I have restarted the computer many times
[19:54] <evanderv> it still does it
[19:54] <iam9376> top only reveals Xorg as being highly active
[19:54] <evanderv> I can run apt-get from command no probs
[19:54] <Izzi> How do I copy information on the network drivers from the livecd to a current installation?
[19:55] <Lynet> evanderv: Try starting it from the command line to see if it burps any errors. gksudo synaptic
[19:55] <rich_freecomm> heh (grasping) have you tried to get-apt synaptic again (if it's possible) :D
[19:56] <erUSUL> Izzi: mount both resources (the network drive and the local disk) and copy the data
[19:56] <Izzi> erUSUL: I mounted the local disk, what data specifically am I copying?
[19:57] <evanderv> Lynet:  It just hangs there
[19:57] <The_PHP_Jedi> wpa_supplicant isn't wanting to connect for some reason (using ndiswrapper). Here's the debug output: http://slexy.org/view/s21BkjpQtb -- it works with the same configuration in my old Ubuntu install, and I can connect using debian. :-s
[19:57] <Izzi> I upgraded and lost my network drivers
[19:57] <dury> hey guys what's the spanish packages
[19:57] <MFietje> just upgraded the kernel
[19:57] <m1dn1ght> Hey guys - is there any reason why the webcam which was working fine last time I booted ubuntu would suddenly not be viewable?
[19:57] <NemesisD> hi, i wanna look at hard drive in a hex editor. before I go and do something really stupid like open the device in the editor and probably crash something, i was wondering if anyone had any better way to do it
[19:57] <MFietje> there were some updates today
[19:57] <Izzi> erUSUL: do you know which data to copy?
[19:58] <The_PHP_Jedi> !es dury
[19:58] <The_PHP_Jedi> :-\
[19:58] <erUSUL> Izzi: oooh i missunderstand you thought you where copying data files from a sever to your machine using the livecd
[19:58] <Pxrbot> Hi, ive just installed hardy on the new laptop, put the nvidia driver on but i cant change the resolution past very low, id be grateful for any help :)
[19:58] <m1dn1ght> Ok - now the lsusb command isn't working.  That's slightly odd.
[19:58] <Chuggst3r> Sweet delicious victory!
[19:59] <dury> The_PHP_Jedi: how do I type in terminal?
[19:59] <Lynet> evanderv: Hard to say what the cause is without some sort of error message. I suppose you could try to reinstall synaptic.
[19:59] <ali1234> why does rhythmbox need such an absurd amount of CPU in hardy? it basically uses as much CPU as it possibly can, all the time. i have a CPU with hyperthreading, and so this problem is not noticeable, rhythmbox can sit and max the CPU - fine, i still have another "core" for everything else. but if i run another program that legitimately uses 100% CPU, for example, doing a render in blender, then suddenly rhythmbox cant even manage to play music without stuttering
[19:59] <ali1234> hmm sorry for long rant :(
[19:59] <Chuggst3r> I finally fixed my video card issues!
[19:59] <The_PHP_Jedi> dury, open the terminal and type into it...
[19:59] <The_PHP_Jedi> ali1234, complain with the rhythmbox developers :)
[19:59] <johey> Is there any alternative cd for Ubuntu server as well?
[19:59] <The_PHP_Jedi> to, rather.
[20:00] <erUSUL> ali1234: i do not have that problem ... no change between hardy and gutsy cpu usage
[20:00] <m1dn1ght> Dury .  Click Applications > Accessories > Terminal.  Type away
[20:00] <evanderv> Lynet:  best way to install it again would be?
[20:00] <dury> The_PHP_Jedi: which command.... and what?
[20:00] <kiris> how do I get to the advanced desktop effects settings dialog on ubuntu?
[20:00] <kiris> it's appeared on my PC but not my desktop
[20:00] <The_PHP_Jedi> dury, what do you want to do?
[20:00] <robg_> johey: you would have to look in the mirror: //releases.ubuntu.com
[20:00] <m1dn1ght> ok - sorry if someone was responding to my question, but I need to reboot.
[20:00] <dury> I'm terminal right now
[20:00] <kiris> er, not my laptop
[20:00] <dury> The_PHP_Jedi: install spanish packages for gnome
[20:00] <ali1234> basically, pre hardy, rhythmbox would behave nice when the machine was loaded by other apps. now it stutters if it cannot have it's 100% cpu
[20:01] <The_PHP_Jedi> dury: check #ubuntu-es -- they probably know.
[20:01] <rich_freecomm> kiris: Syetem -> appearance -> visual effects -> extra
[20:01] <rich_freecomm> :P
[20:01] <ali1234> CPU usage hasn;t actually changed
[20:01] <Lynet> evanderv: apt-get remove, apt-get install I guess.
[20:01] <johey> robg_, I only find server, desktop and alternate. Not server-alternate.
[20:01] <evanderv> yeah I thought so doing it now
[20:01] <evanderv> :D
[20:01] <The_PHP_Jedi> Do y'all know why wpa_supplicant isn't connecting to my access point on my new install, even though it works on my old install?
[20:02] <tdawgedogg> whats the terminal command to view my network shares?
[20:02] <robg_> johey: if it is not there then it probably does not exist. Pity through. Drive encryption would be welcome on a server.
[20:02] <tux> how come there is no /etc/exports file in heron ?
[20:02] <evanderv> Lynet:  This also happens when I run LikeWise
[20:02] <Chuggst3r> fde: You around?
[20:02] <tux> how do I create one, touch /etc/exports?
[20:02] <evanderv> not sure if its relaterd
[20:03] <tdawgedogg> whats the terminal command to view my network shares?
[20:03] <rich_freecomm> What do people use (first hand experience) to view SWFs? nothing I've tried works...ideas?
[20:03] <johey> robg_, Yeah, and the possibility to boot the cd would be nice as well.
[20:03] <KeKoS> hi I have got kubuntu 8.04. I'm trying to run a *.deb file but it doesn't allow me and keep asking me for a program to run the file, anyone can help me? yhanks
[20:03] <ali1234> tdawgedogg: assuming you means windows networking, smbclient -L <machine>
[20:03] <The_PHP_Jedi> rich_freecomm, I just use Firefox (I open the file through it).
[20:03] <Slart> KeKoS: you don't run .deb files.. they are not executable
[20:04] <tdawgedogg> ah i figured it out shares-admin
[20:04] <david__> whats a DBus launch error in  banshee music player?
[20:04] <The_PHP_Jedi> Do y'all know why wpa_supplicant isn't connecting to my access point on my new install, even though it works on my old install?
[20:04] <rich_freecomm> The_PHP_Jedi: tried that....even if the file is local, it acts like it's 'downloading it' with a continuous circle
[20:04] <Linux_User> hi all
[20:04] <johey> Why isn't there a alternate version for Ubuntu server?
[20:04] <Slart> KeKoS: if you want to install it you use dpkg .. "sudo dpkg --install yourdebfile.deb"
[20:04] <keith> Is there a reason that wireless networks don't seem to update in Ubuntu? They seem fixed at what is available when I turn the computer on...
[20:04] <daftykins> i need IP forwarding set to enabled permanently on a couple of ubuntu server systems, i have the line "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" in /etc/sysctl.conf but the system doesn't seem to read it on startup so it doesn't get set, meaning i have to run "sysctl -p" to force it to do so, how do i solve this?
[20:04] <KeKoS> Slart I would like to install a program *.deb and I used to do it on Ubuntu
[20:05] <daftykins> "dpkg -i blah.deb" for ubuntu
[20:05] <KeKoS> they are packages
[20:05] <Slart> KeKoS: either you just double-click on the deb in gnome..or use the terminal command I wrote above
[20:05] <The_PHP_Jedi> rich_freecomm, odd. I don't know of any standalone .swf players... so I can't help you any further. :-s
[20:05] <Linux_User> i have fedora9 and win XP installed on my system. If i install Ubuntu will the Grub autommatically add fedora 9 and Win XP or not?
[20:05] <evanderv> Lynet:  I dont think its the program itself
[20:05] <jelmer> keith: even if you run "iwlist scan" from the command line?
[20:05] <The_PHP_Jedi> Linux_User, yes, it will.
[20:05] <evanderv> I think its something to do with administrative applications
[20:05] <evanderv> Lynet:  I can't run any of them
[20:05] <jelmer> keith: if so, it is probably a bug in the driver for your wireless network card
[20:05] <erUSUL> Linux_User: windows probably ; fedora not likely
[20:05] <rich_freecomm> The_PHP_Jedi: maybe I should have stayed with FF2? :D
[20:05] <keith> jelmer: I was unaware of that command... so I don't know
[20:05] <KeKoS> ok thanks
[20:05] <david__> hey guys
[20:06] <david__> quick question
[20:06] <g[r]eek> Hi how do I remove an installed program (munin)
[20:06] <The_PHP_Jedi> g[r]eek, use Synaptic.
[20:06] <jelmer> keith: generally, networkmanager (the icon in your panel) should do the right thing
[20:06] <robg_> Linux_User: the latest instal usually becomes boot and usually provides links to other installed OSes. But strange things happen.
[20:06] <g[r]eek> The_PHP_Jedi, via command line?
[20:06] <Slart> g[r]eek: synaptic or sudo apt-get remove packagename ..
[20:06] <keith> jelmer: How often does it update its list?
[20:06] <david__> whats a DBus launch error in BANSHEE MUSIC PLAYER?  anyone know :(..?
[20:06] <Lynet> evanderv: Hmm.. Might perhaps be something borked with root or perhaps with pam. If you're using likewise (Win AD integration, right?) there might perhaps be something there.
[20:06] <omniiii> morning folks.. got a bit of a qunadry
[20:06] <The_PHP_Jedi> g[r]eek, no, open the application Synaptic. It should be in your System menu
[20:06] <g[r]eek> Ok thanks - does that remove all log files associated to it etc
[20:06] <Slart> g[r]eek: use --purge if you want to remove all configuration files too
[20:06] <teq> hello, is there a way I can burn mp3 files into an audio cd with ubuntu? thanks
 What to do then to have Ubuntu, Fedora and Win xP all on the same system?
[20:06] <jelmer> keith: not sure, but quickly enough
[20:06] <chad> !pastebin
[20:07] <g[r]eek> The_PHP_Jedi, thanks but I need the command line - server edition
[20:07] <g[r]eek> Slart, ok thanks
[20:07] <Slart> teq: brasero can burn audio cd's from mp3s
[20:07] <jelmer> keith: it *may* be a bug in networkmanager though, that's why it would be useful if you can verify that "iwlist scan" also doesn't work
[20:07] <The_PHP_Jedi> g[r]eek, then use 'apt-get remove package'
[20:07] <erUSUL> Linux_User: just add fedora yourself it shouldn't be that hard
[20:07] <omniiii> just installed ubuntu on my HP Pavilion DV6000 (nvidia chipset) and can't seem to get the wireless networking to work
[20:07] <evanderv> Lynet: I do have Likewise
[20:07] <_paneb> how can i find out whether my video card is pci express or agp?
[20:07] <evanderv> I will unistall it
[20:07] <g[r]eek> The_PHP_Jedi, ok thanks
[20:07] <teq> Slart: im using 7.10
[20:07] <keith> jelmer: will iwlist scan update the gui?
[20:07] <teq> Slart: any tip?
[20:07] <debian> How do I start Compiz Fusion on ubuntu 8.04?
[20:07] <Slart> teq: brasero is available for 7.10 too
[20:07] <mmi> paneb: Just look at which slot it goes in to on your motherboard
[20:07] <jelmer> keith: I don't think it will
[20:07] <Slart> teq: sudo apt-get install brasero
 How to add? plz simple solution, i am not an expert
[20:07] <teq> Slart: apt-get install brasero?
[20:07] <jelmer> keith: but it will be useful to figure out which bit of your system is failing
[20:07] <debian> i want to congfigure it...
[20:07] <erUSUL> Linux_User: you have to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add a "stanza" for booting fedora you can copy that from the fedora /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:08] <teq> Slart: lol ok thanks
[20:08] <chad> I am getting a ton of problems with Evolution not resolving names in the exchange address book, a debug has led me to these errors:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/15385/ ... basically saying it cannot connect to the gnome_keyring ... connection refused
[20:08] <LogiTech> in to which channel i have to go to get info about mp4,mp3,ipod,iphones and so on...
[20:08] <PdUb101> debian, go to add/remove programs and look up fuzion
[20:08] <PdUb101> debian, compiz*
[20:08] <evanderv> I will unistall it
[20:08] <keith> jelmer: I'll mess around with that, thanks
[20:08] <omniiii> I've installed the Wireless LAN Manager but when I try to launch Wireless Assistant, I get this error: "Could not launch menu item. Unknown encoding of: file:///usr/share/applications/kde/wlassistant.desktop
[20:08] <Lynet> evanderv: Just guessing at this point, really. Hard to tell without having some error message.
[20:08] <omniiii> any help on wireless networking?
[20:08] <The_PHP_Jedi> Do y'all know why wpa_supplicant isn't connecting to my access point on my new install, even though it works on my old install? Debug output: http://slexy.org/view/s21BkjpQtb
[20:09] <The_PHP_Jedi> omniiii, what's your specific issue?
[20:09] <PdUb101> debian, once you have installed compiz fusion go to applications > system tools and it should be in there
[20:09] <omniiii> (12:08:31 PM) omni: I've installed the Wireless LAN Manager but when I try to launch Wireless Assistant, I get this error: "Could not launch menu item. Unknown encoding of: file:///usr/share/applications/kde/wlassistant.desktop
[20:09] <daftykins> i need IP forwarding set to enabled permanently on a couple of ubuntu server systems, i have the line "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" in /etc/sysctl.conf but the system doesn't seem to read it on startup so it doesn't get set, meaning i have to run "sysctl -p" to force it to do so, how do i solve this?
[20:09] <omniiii> The_PHP_Jedi: (12:07:14 PM) omni: just installed ubuntu on my HP Pavilion DV6000 (nvidia chipset) and can't seem to get the wireless networking to work
[20:10] <teq> PdUb101: he needs to install compiz-settings first
[20:10] <Slart> daftykins: I have the same problem.. I don't reboot my server very often but I have to set it manually
[20:10] <g[r]eek> Worked. Thanks fellas. Cheers.
[20:10] <debian> PdUb101: I can't find compiz in add remove programs...
[20:10] <daftykins> it's annoying isn't it Slart
[20:10] <MrObvious> The_PHP_Jedi: If I had to guess it is a bad key.
[20:10] <Slart> daftykins: I tried the sysconf thingy too.. didn't work
[20:10] <The_PHP_Jedi> omniiii, not familiar with KDE, sorry.
[20:10] <Slart> daftykins: extremely annoying
[20:10] <daftykins> yeah it's only updated if i run "syctl -p"
[20:10] <omniiii> The_PHP_Jedi: I'm not using KDE, I just installed a fresh ubuntu
[20:10] <MrObvious> The_PHP_Jedi: But that is merely a guess. Try using wi-fi without encryption for now.
[20:10] <The_PHP_Jedi> MrObvious, I'm using exactly the same configuration file as my other systems, and it works.
[20:10] <MrObvious> The_PHP_Jedi: Like I said, it's a guess.
[20:10] <The_PHP_Jedi> MrObvious, eh.... that's not really an option. Security is a must here.
[20:11] <Slart> daftykins: ah.. I usually log on using ssh and change it manually
[20:11] <MrObvious> The_PHP_Jedi: Yeah I prefer WPA w\ a strong password too.
[20:11] <The_PHP_Jedi> MrObvious, thanks for giving it a shot though. :)
 Should I add it any where in menu file of ubuntu's grub?
[20:11] <erUSUL> daftykins: add "sysctl -p" to /etc/rc.local as workaround ??
[20:11] <PdUb101> debian, make sure the "show" tab says "all available applications"
[20:11] <omniiii> the_PHP_jedi: so there's no KDE. I just need to know how to get wireless networking to work using the default ubuntu installation (using gnome I guess)
[20:11] <visualnets> hello everyone
[20:11] <erUSUL> Linux_User: at the end after the windows entry for example
[20:12] <PdUb101> debian,  you are also going to want to install the advanced desktop effeects setting (ccsm)
ok, thx alot. I will try it
[20:12] <chad> I am getting a ton of problems with Evolution not resolving names in the exchange address book, a debug has led me to these errors:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/15385/ ... basically saying it cannot connect to the gnome_keyring ... connection refused.  Can anyone help ?
[20:12] <The_PHP_Jedi> omniiii, well, gnome has a handy applet that's in the top bar... It's pretty straightforward.
[20:12] <Mass_Kid> anyone having a problem with Mozilla where it reads spaces as tabs?
[20:12] <omniiii> the_php_jedi: what's the name of it? I've looked at everything in the top bar and nothing seems to point me in the right direction
[20:13] <The_PHP_Jedi> omniiii, you could try right click -> add to panel... and choose 'Network Monitor' (or something similar to that name)
[20:13] <MrObvious> The_PHP_Jedi: Maybe post it in ubuntuforums.org in the networking section and see if someone has any ideas.
[20:13] <omniiii> the_php_jedi: I've installed the network selector, and in the menu it says "Wireless disabled" but the wireless is controlled by a physical toggle switch on the laptop, which is set to "on" and the status indicator is blue indicating that the wireless card is in fact activated
[20:14] <The_PHP_Jedi> omniiii, then maybe you need to install the drivers for your card, perhaps using ndiswrapper if none are available for Linux natively.
[20:14] <The_PHP_Jedi> MrObvious, I think I'll do that... Apparently there's no support chan for wpa_supplicant... Cheers.
[20:14] <omniiii> the_php_jedi: I see.
[20:14] <Lynet> daftykins: Could you try adding net.ipv4.conf.all.forwarding=1  I found an old bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/procps/+bug/84537 that sounds eerily similar.

[20:20] <Lynet> MGalaxy: I'm soure your ISP would know that.
[20:20] <david__> how to fix
[20:20] <Jack_Sparrow> Mibias there is a wubi faq page on the wiki
[20:20] <Pici> kool-aid629: I dont know what that is, but it doesnt sound Ubuntu related.
[20:21] <Mibias> what wiki?
[20:21] <tdawgedogg> when i choose connect to server in places should there be a nfs option?
[20:21] <teq> Mibias: download install pack en burn it into a live cd the install it, other ways are buggy
[20:21] <ali1234> david__: is dbus running? try 'dbus-monitor' in console?
[20:21] <MGalaxy> Lynet: I can ask them tomorrow, but now they are closed and I need to connect via wimax :D
[20:21] <Mibias> I've also tried burning it to a cd and installing from the cd. Same bug
[20:21] <Jack_Sparrow> !wubi
[20:22] <NamTCM> What is command to change name of USB has file system is FAT?
[20:22] <Mibias> thank you. I'll look there
[20:22] <NamTCM> ubottu is a bot???
[20:22] <Lynet> MGalaxy: Well, it all depends on how the ISP has set up their stuff. I guess you could try to use a dhcp client and cross your fingers.
[20:22] <teq> ubottu is a bot???
[20:22] <Jack_Sparrow> yes
[20:22] <teq> lol i knew that heh
[20:23] <AlienX> anyone know of any good howtos to get skype 2.0 to work with alsa? Seems it doesn't like any of my audio devices :-\
[20:23] <Izzi> whoa it's like sciene!
[20:23] <NamTCM> Funny
[20:23] <Izzi> OMG BBQ!
[20:23] <david__> thanks a lil234
[20:23] <david__> try it out
[20:23] <Slart> is there a tool to compare folders.. I'm ok with just comparing file sizes.. I don't need to check the contents like diff does
[20:23] <MGalaxy> Lynet: dhcp does not work, I set the IP to <IP_ADDRESS> but I failed to connect to internet :-s
[20:24] <kiris> what is the executable called for compiz settings on hardy?
[20:24] <py_> hello
[20:24] <Gokul> my wireless & sound card have stopped working after upgrading to hardy(8.04), anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
[20:24] <Lynet> MGalaxy: Well.. Considering that 192.168 is private address space that is not valid on internet that's not really surprising.
[20:25] <py_> I've a box which doesn't detect some usb devices which are already plugged in at boot. If after the boot I unplug-replug them, then they get detected, and work like a charm
[20:25] <david__> what does dbus monitor do exactly? can i fix bugs with it?
[20:25] <py_> ever heard of such a problem?
[20:25] <Gokul> they work fine when i switch back to 2.6.22.x but not on 2.6.24.x
[20:25] <Pici> david__: Its for interprocess communciation
[20:25] <Slart> AlienX: I'm running skype 2 with alsa.. haven't had any real problems with it
[20:26] <py_> was unable to locate a report of something similar
[20:26] <AlienX> Slart, hmm. It tells me that there is a problem with my audio playback :-\
[20:26] <david__> so all i get from dbus monitor is error report, how do i fix the errors then?
[20:26] <david__> reinstall program?
[20:26] <ali1234> david__: dbus-monitor should just show you the messages on the bus. if it gives you an error it probably means you dont have running dbus
[20:26] <Aexander> hi
[20:27] <Aexander> im having a problm with my my sound card
[20:27] <david__> so reinstall banshee in this case..?
[20:27] <Gokul> my wireless & sound card have stopped working after upgrading to hardy(8.04), anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
[20:27] <AlienX> Slart, are you running <IP_ADDRESS>-1
[20:27] <Aexander> im using ubuntu 8.04
[20:28] <ali1234> david__: nothat probably wont help. can you pastebin the output from dbus-monitor?
[20:28] <teq> !backup
[20:28] <backslash7> Can anyone tell me where TORRENTFLUX stores finished downloads to?
[20:29] <Gokul> Aexander: what kernel version are you using?
[20:29] <RayzrShrp> holy cow there are a lot of people on this channel!
[20:29] <Jokka> Does anyone know a fast and easy burn prog, package supported would be nice? =)
[20:30] <jessejazza> k3b
[20:30] <teq> Is there another program that burns mp3s into audio cds besides brasero? thanks
[20:30] <the_eraser> where do i check which drivers i am using?
[20:30] <keith> jelmer: It is updating I guess... would it still update if my network card was in promiscuous mode?
[20:30] <Webu> What might cause this? http://www.verkkojohto.net/rkof/upload/www.png
[20:31] <frankie_> hello all
[20:31] <teq> frankie_: hey
[20:31] <Lynet> Jokka: Brasero?
[20:31] <dbarnett> Webu: I've never seen that. Is it maybe a mountpoint of a fs that ls can't recognize?
[20:31] <jessejazza> http://www.ebuyer.com/product/119977
[20:31] <Jokka> Lynet, thx =)
[20:31] <jessejazza> would one of these work in ubuntu?
[20:31] <david__> how do i pastebin? sorry, illiterate to linux
[20:32] <Jack_Sparrow> !paste
[20:32] <Lynet> Webu: What did you do to that poor defenseless file?
[20:32] <Webu> dbarnett, that's my regular Apache's www-directory, I just noticed there's something wrong with it :-S
[20:32] <jelmer> keith: I would think so
[20:32] <dbarnett> Webu: I would recommend backing up
[20:32] <the_eraser> i want to know what driver a pci-device is using. Help me?
[20:32] <dbarnett> Webu: is it a seperate partition or just part of /
[20:32] <The_PHP_Jedi> david__, I also recommend http://slexy.org as a pastebin :)
[20:32] <keith> david__: it's a nice excuse, but pastebin has nothing specifically to do with linux ;-D
[20:33] <teq> ugh brasero is not working for me :(
[20:33] <BorkisDrizzt> is there a program i ubuntu like notepad in windows, a text writer that doesn't format the text?
[20:33] <Webu> Lynet, I don't know, I was looking for the reason why doesn't my Apache show anything up, until I noticed that :-/
[20:33] <linkinxp> how  do i reset my audio drivers?????
[20:33] <The_PHP_Jedi> boris, 'Text Editor'?
[20:33] <keith> jelmer: I'll test that out next I guess
[20:33] <Webu> dbarnett, it's /var/www, just a directory.
[20:33] <thingfish> BorkisDrizzt: gedit
[20:33] <david__> ok ok ok
[20:33] <dbarnett> might try a fsck
[20:33] <dbarnett> sorry Webu never seen that
[20:34] <Lynet> Webu: That smells like a borked directory entry to me. I'd unmount whatever filesystem it is on and run fsck on it.
[20:34] <frankie_> i am having trouble getting my machine to access my network. any tips for an ubuntu noob?
[20:34] <Slart> AlienX: hang on... let me check
[20:34] <teq> Is there another program that burns mp3s into audio cds besides brasero? thanks
[20:34] <AlienX> Slart, cheers
[20:34] <Slart> <IP_ADDRESS>
[20:34] <chad> My evolution keeps crashing with "lost connection to the exchange backend service"  i need help
[20:34] <backslash7> Anyone using TORRENTFLUX? Where are finished downloads?
[20:34] <BorkisDrizzt> ah, found it, meh, it should have been under office programs
[20:34] <Slart> AlienX: <IP_ADDRESS> .. no -1 in the about box at least
[20:34] <Webu> dbarnett Lynet, okey thanks, I'll try to recover it, but luckily there's no much data lost if there's nothing to do.
[20:34] <dbarnett> Webu: can you cd into it?
[20:34] <AlienX> Slart, hmm I'll have to see if I can find the older revision then
[20:35] <Webu> "-bash: cd: www: Permission denied"
[20:35] <teq> Webu: try as root
[20:35] <RayzrShrp> how do i list the users in a room?
[20:35] <frankie_> can anyone help me get ubuntu to access the internet?
[20:35] <Starnestommy> RayzrShrp: /names
[20:35] <RayzrShrp> using irssi
[20:35] <teq> frankie_: sure
[20:36] <teq> frankie_: state the problem..
[20:36] <tonyyarusso> RayzrShrp: /names
[20:36] <ali1234> backslash7: try searching for them with 'locate'
[20:36] <RayzrShrp> thanks
[20:36] <tonyyarusso> RayzrShrp: and it's a channel, not a room
[20:36] <frankie_> i'm running my network on a verizon router (*fios stuff)....
[20:36] <RayzrShrp> sorry lol
[20:36] <dbarnett>  Webu: i've asked on another chanel I lurk in and they say corrupt fs
[20:36] <dbarnett> check your dmesg output for errors
[20:36] <Webu> "sudo: cd: command not found", hmm..
[20:36] <Webu> dbarnett, I see.
[20:36] <teq> frankie_: whats the problem?
[20:36] <frankie_> i have a few other machines linked through ethernet using netgear switches that use the house's power grid.
[20:36] <RayzrShrp> irssi seems much nicer then bitchx
[20:37] <frankie_> ubuntu isn't seeing the ethernet hookup.
[20:37] <Starnestommy> Webu: it sounds like a permission problem on www
[20:37] <Webu> "[46116.153032] sd 0:0:1:0: [sdb] 398297088 512-byte hardware sectors (203928 MB)"
[20:37] <frankie_> my mac and 3 other windows machines are all able to use it fine.
[20:37] <Webu> Oops, not that one, hmm.
[20:37] <tonyyarusso> frankie_: we have those things too, and they've worked fine for me...
[20:37] <Vegombrei> my dlink wireless media server wont connect with ubuntu, and the video streaming also lags ..
[20:37] <Webu> "[46116.119313] EXT3-fs error (device sda3): ext3_get_inode_loc: unable to read inode block - inode=10847722, block=21692465"
[20:37] <BorkisDrizzt> Is it possible to burn an OpenOffice presentation to a CD?
[20:37] <tonyyarusso> frankie_: Does Ubuntu work with other ethernet connections?  If not, could be the card driver and have nothing to do with the power line connection.
[20:37] <dbarnett> try fscking it
[20:37] <frankie_> nope
[20:38] <teq> BorkisDrizzt: yes
[20:38] <tonyyarusso> BorkisDrizzt: sure, with Brasero - you can burn any file.
[20:38] <Lynet> Webu: fsck and cross your fingers.
[20:38] <BorkisDrizzt> sweet
[20:38] <zerg> #tuxhelper
[20:38] <frankie_> card driver?
[20:38] <tonyyarusso> frankie_: The ethernet card in your computer.  Any idea what kind it is?
[20:38] <teq> tonyyarusso: hey any idea why my brasero stucks on burning process?
[20:38] <Session> I'm having priblen with my laptop connection to wireless network. dmesg gives me dhcdbd: message_handler: message handler not found under /com/redhat/dhcp/eth1 for sub-path eth1.dbus.get.reason. Anyone heard of this before?
[20:38] <frankie_> i can open it and check :p  gimme a sec
[20:38] <tonyyarusso> teq: nope.
[20:38] <teq> tonyyarusso: it doesnt gets started at all
[20:39] <slim> how can I quit my X session?
[20:39] <IPkaf> hi
[20:39] <IPkaf> hello
[20:39] <slimjimflim> anybody know where to find docs to make my own deb package?
[20:39] <teq> slim: pkill xserver?
[20:39] <IPkaf> how are you ??
[20:39] <Jack_Sparrow> !packaging
[20:39] <lolzer> BorkisDrizzt: if you want even more burning power and don't mind installing kde libraries - k3b is a fine, fine burning tool.
[20:39] <tonyyarusso> slim: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[20:39] <nibsa1242b> I'm having issues with being able to hear sound on You Tube and other websites, however, I can hear sound just fine from programs such as VLC. Any help?
[20:39] <Webu> Lynet dbarnett, yeah looks like there's problems when reading the dmesg, I'll try what happens.
[20:39] <chad> does anyone here know anything about fixing Evolution???
[20:40] <slim> pkill xserver does nothing
[20:40] <BorkisDrizzt> lolzer, why, is there a problem with installing kde libraries?
[20:40] <jonaskoelker> question: how do I regenerate device.map?
[20:40] <jonaskoelker> slim: "pkill X"?
[20:40] <teq> slim: try what tony said sudo invoke-rd.d gdm stop
[20:40] <tonyyarusso> BorkisDrizzt: it's a personal preference thing.
[20:40] <lolzer> no. no problem with it. just using a little more disc space. nothing wrong with it.  I love k3b.
[20:40] <evanderv> Lynet:  Hey I unistalled LikeWise now I can't log into Ubuntu at all
[20:40] <jonaskoelker> slim: try ps -Fe | grep X
[20:40] <tonyyarusso> teq: -rc, not -rd though
[20:40] <MemoryDump> I think Slim found a way.. cause he's gone now! haha
[20:41] <Webu> Lynet, actually, am I possible to unmount the disk Ubuntu is installed? I need to do that before fsck?
[20:41] <jonaskoelker> can anyone help me with grub?
[20:41] <Webu> Lynet, am I able to*
[20:41] <teq> tonyyarusso: ahh typos :P
[20:41] <tonyyarusso> Webu: you'll need to use a live cd for that
[20:41] <teq> slim: try what tony said sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop
[20:41] <Starnestommy> jonaskoelker: it depends on what kind of help you need with grub
[20:41] <jonaskoelker> Starnestommy: how do I regenerate device.map?
[20:42] <jonaskoelker> Starnestommy: ... either by hand or by program
[20:42] <Lynet> Webu: umount or remount read-only. If it is your / partition, it is probably easiest to boot a LiveCD and do fsck from there.
[20:42] <evanderv> Why would uninstalling LikeWIse prevent me from logging back into gnome
[20:42] <Webu> tonyyarusso, ouch, hopefully live cd doesn't need X, just thought it's a server computer?
[20:42] <evanderv> I have changed my password and even created new accounts and none of them work
[20:42] <Starnestommy> jonaskoelker: it depends on what hard disks, floppy drives, and cd drives you have, and which device nodes they are associated with
[20:43] <Webu> Lynet, I see, thanks, now it's time to find my disk :-)
[20:43] <nibsa1242b> Any advice with regards to lack of sound when watching flash videos?
[20:43] <arpreply> anyone know of a project designed to wrap firefox up in a COM layer object?
[20:43] <Lynet> evanderv: Ouch.   Live CD would include X, yes, although it's possible they've added a text-boot option since I last checked.  Otherwise, there might still be the "repair" option on the !alternate CD, which might do the trick.
[20:43] <chad> My evolution keeps crashing with "lost connection to the exchange backend service"  i need help
[20:43] <ali1234> jonaskoelker: my device.map just says "(hd0)   /dev/sda" so i guess you just need to supply "grub style" device name and kernel device node for each HD in your system, in that format
[20:44] <evanderv> I am completely locked out now
[20:44] <jonaskoelker> Starnestommy: I have, {primary,secondary}{master,slave}: disk, disk, cdrom, disk; I want to boot from 2nd slave, which is also the root drive
[20:44] <Vegombrei> my dlink wireless media server wont connect with ubuntu, and the video streaming also lags ..
[20:44] <frankie_> teq, can ubuntu tell me what card the machine is using?
[20:44] <evanderv> What is the command to turn on root login at gnome login screen
[20:44] <Steve-cal> nibsa1242b: Are you using the Adobe flash plugin or something else?
[20:44] <Starnestommy> evanderv: there isn't one
[20:44] <teq> frankie_: i believe it does, i dont know the command, sorry
[20:44] <tonyyarusso> evanderv: what would you do that?
[20:44] <Webu> tonyyarusso, hmm okay, I think I should just grab the server here, because it would be hard to do it "remotely".
[20:44] <harpreet> my mail (outgoing) does not go through in evolution or kontact? do i have to set up any port ?
[20:44] <tonyyarusso> Webu: agreed
[20:44] <IPkaf> hi
[20:44] <psufan> how do I bring up the grub boot command line at promp if it's hidden
[20:44] <IPkaf> hello
[20:44] <Jack_Sparrow> evanderv You can get recovery mode root from grub menu
[20:44] <Starnestommy> jonaskoelker: try sudo grub --device-map
[20:45] <IPkaf> how are you ???
[20:45] <tonyyarusso> psufan: Esc
[20:45] <evanderv> tonyy:  because I am completely locked out of my gnome desktop
[20:45] <Steve-cal> frankie_: sudo lshw -C network    (try that)
[20:45] <tonyyarusso> !offtopic | IPkaf
[20:45] <jonaskoelker> ali: so, I want (hd3)  /dev/hdd and then "root (hd3)" in menu.list?
[20:45] <tonyyarusso> evanderv: in what way?
[20:45] <frankie_> enter that into the terminal, right? (i'm a huge noob)
[20:45] <jonaskoelker> Starnestommy: requires an argument
[20:45] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: I'm pretty sure its the official Adobe flash plugin. about:plugins reports it as libflashplayer.so & npwrapper.libflashplayer.so
[20:45] <Almar> Hello. I need help with my CD burner. I insert the empty CD, but I get the error "burn:/// is not a valid location" when I choose 'make a data CD'. Making an audio CD is no problem though. Any idea what might be wrong?
[20:45] <IPkaf> is there anyone here who install wengophone on ubuntu ???
[20:45] <evanderv> tonyyarusso:  I unistalled LikeWise now I can't get back into gnome
[20:46] <evanderv> my passwords wont work
[20:46] <psufan> or also what is the script install option for adding a line to grub so oit's always there
[20:46] <tonyyarusso> evanderv: do your passwords work on a terminal login?
[20:46] <psufan> I need console=ttyS1,38400
[20:46] <RayzrShrp> what is likewise?
[20:46] <harpreet> my mail (outgoing) does not go through in evolution or kontact? do i have to set up any port ?
[20:46] <tonyyarusso> psufan: the kopt= line in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:46] <Starnestommy> jonaskoelker: try sudo grub --device-map=/boot/grub/device.map
[20:46] <tonyyarusso> RayzrShrp: makes Linux work with Windows Active Directory.
[20:47] <RayzrShrp> tonyyarusso: thanks
[20:47] <psufan> ok thx but how do I make the installer auto script I am using
[20:47] <Jack_Sparrow> harpreet what server are you using
[20:47] <psufan> auto put this in

[20:49] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: ok, I'll see what happens if I remove one.
[20:50] <Jack_Sparrow> harpreet check the port in use in windows...
[20:50] <Starnestommy> backslash7: the permissions appear to be correct.  It has read+write+execute for everyone
[20:50] <hostile-> hey guys
[20:50] <tonyyarusso> backslash7: define "can not open"?  You'll note that it has a size of zero.
[20:50] <hostile-> remember i said i had a laptop crash
[20:50] <BorkisDrizzt> wth, I tried burning it and then when I tried showing it in my DVD-player, it says no audio-data and no picture-data
[20:50] <hostile-> and ubuntu died and i lost my taskbar, nm applets, etc and the date turned to 1901
[20:50] <alexi5> any of you guys installed the ati fglrx drivers on your system and experience flickering when playing videos? Is there any way to resolve this ?
[20:50] <hostile-> well i just formated and installed Debian-powerpc
[20:50] <hostile-> and its the SAME PROBLEM
[20:50] <harpreet> Jack_Sparrow, the outbox shows no message and displays as mail has been sent, how ever it does not reach the destination. how do i change settings in thunderbird?
[20:50] <hostile-> What do i do
[20:50] <backslash7> Starnestommy: Hmm the thing is it's on a samba share, created with a logged in user. I created it and now I cannot open it. Thanks for helping me Starnestommy :D
[20:50] <teq> hostile-: why not reinstall ubuntu?
[20:50] <jonaskoelker> Starnestommy: do I need to run something after I've updated device.map?
[20:51] <frankie_> ok, it gave me a list, what am i looking for?
[20:51] <jonaskoelker> Starnestommy: (I did it by hand)
[20:51] <hostile-> i dont know that took forever
[20:51] <hostile-> but why is there the same problem
[20:51] <Starnestommy> backslash7: it appears to have a size of zero

[20:51] <Jack_Sparrow> harpreet I went through the help page online for Tb

[20:51] <hostile-> yeah empty
[20:51] <hostile-> my taskbar
[20:51] <hostile-> and the applets
[20:51] <BorkisDrizzt> must I burn the pictures along with the .opd file?
[20:51] <hostile-> and nautilus is curruped

[20:51] <backslash7> Starnestommy: The file is empty. I created it as logged in samba user from another computer (client) and now I cannot open it.
[20:52] <ali1234> jonaskoelker: no, and i dont think device.map is even used except when installing grub the first time...
[20:52] <majikins> hi I have a m2n32 asus sli mobo - wireless does not work
[20:52] <harrydg> what can one do about this in mythbackend restart?
[20:52] <teq> Is there another program that burns mp3s into audio cds besides brasero? thanks
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> harpreet I dont have any in this pc.. google mozilla, thunderbird troubleshooting.. it will come up
[20:52] <majikins> does anyone have this board and got the wifi to work?
[20:52] <Steve-cal> nibsa1242b: BTW, my version is "9.0 r124" and I believe I got it through the repositories--you may want to upgrade yours.

[20:52] <harpreet> Jack_Sparrow, thank you very much
[20:52] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[20:52] <lolzer> BorkisDrizzt: yeah, you need to put the images and sound on the cd as well as the openoffice file.
[20:53] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: I'm thinking the best way to do that would be to sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree right? I don't currently have that package installed.
[20:53] <frankie_> how can i get ubuntu to tell me what ethernet card is in the machine
[20:53] <backslash7> Starnestommy: Would you please help me if you can? :O
[20:53] <BorkisDrizzt> okay
[20:53] <Steve-cal> majikins: Many of us--if you want help with wireless you need to be more specific with your questions. ;)
[20:53] <teq> ArthurArchnix: serpentine cant burn mp3s into audio cds thanks anyway :)

[20:54] <Steve-cal> nibsa1242b: I originally installed it thru the repos--how did you install yours originally?
[20:54] <atlas95> hello, could you help me, I have a problem, could you see this topic please : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=464883 Thanks ;)
[20:54] <frankie_> -c network just showed what formats and what options i could enter. or something like that. (i are noobie.)
[20:54] <majikins> um - have heron loaded - wifi access pts are detected but cannot connect to any
[20:54] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: I think I went to a flash page, and I let firefox install the plugin.
[20:54] <majikins> nor can I create an access pt
[20:54] <Jack_Sparrow> atlas95 please post descriptions with your link to a problem

[20:54] <Steve-cal> frankie_: Please enter it exactly: sudo lshw -C network     (note the capital C)
[20:55] <majikins> Steve-cal: what information should I give?

[20:55] <Impsyn> Hey folks, I have the apt-get rep package teamspeak-server installed but the binary is out of date. Is there a way to fix that without breaking the autoupdate functionality and does anyone know what directory the binary is kept in?

[20:55] <atlas95> I want to get a zenity popup for arpalert program, on is provide, but I have problem to run it : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=464883
[20:55] <backslash7> I am root Starnestommy, just atm :P
[20:55] <frankie_> success!
[20:55] <chicobo329> I've been having some problems lately with stability. I'm beginning to suspect GNOME. It's been doing weird things like locking up on me, and programs with GNOME intergration, especially Firefox, are especially acting up. Even now, my Weather won't show up on the top taskbar as it usually does and I just had to restart the computer earlier because both top and bottom taskbars froze on me. Whenever the taskbars freezeup, the
[20:55] <Scan__> it is a quake 3 game
[20:55] <teq> frankie_: gratz!!
[20:55] <Steve-cal> majikins: Well, what is your wireless card and the chipset it uses?  Use "sudo lshw -C network" to find out.
[20:56] <backslash7> and Starnestommy still is root root with myuser.myuser
[20:56] <tonyyarusso> Scan__: does he get sound in any other app with them?
[20:56] <Scan__> yes he does
[20:56] <frankie_> ok, my ethernet card is an intel ethernet pro 100
[20:56] <BCM43> chicobo329: do free | grep swa[
[20:56] <BCM43> chicobo329: do free | grep swap
[20:56] <Starnestommy> atlas95: did you create the appropriate symlinks in /etc/rc2.d, /etc/rc3.d, /etc/rc4.d, /etc/rc5.d, /etc/rc6.d, and /etc/rc0.d?
[20:56] <cellofellow> This only started a day or so ago, but my right speaker on my laptop stopped working. It's not hardware damage or anything because it still works in (eek) Vista, but it just isn't working with ALSA.
[20:56] <tonyyarusso> Scan__: hmm, well, I'm not sure, but perhaps that bit of info helps someone else - if not be sure to mention that in any bug reports or forum posts (ubuntuforums.org).
[20:56] <chicobo329> okay
[20:57] <frankie_> could that have a problem with using the powergrid ethernet?
[20:57] <cellofellow> The card is Nvidia HDA-intel with STAC9200.
[20:57] <atlas95> Starnestommy:  for the zenity popup or for arpalert?
[20:57] <backslash7> Starnestommy: Isn't it really strange that I cannot OPEN (read) a file I just CREATED ? I can edit / delete all other files tho :/ But this is the only one I created
[20:57] <atlas95> I'm updating my post
[20:57] <chicobo329> done
[20:57] <Starnestommy> atlas95: the one in /etc/init.d/
[20:57] <chicobo329> anything next?
[20:57] <chimp> vmware sometimes steals my ctrl-alt-shift keys, even after i exit it, any idea how to regain access to them
[20:57] <atlas95> yes, It is created, I have restart it too
[20:57] <Starnestommy> backslash7: it sounds like something might be locking it or a filesystem error is happening
[20:58] <chimp> for example i cant use those keys atm and its very annoying
[20:58] <atlas95> then I launch the zenity popup but this doesn't work
[20:58] <will00> im trying to set up a media center remote and im having zero luck, can anyone help?
[20:58] <BorkisDrizzt> If I have a song playing in rhythmbox, and then pause it because I want to watch a video on Youtube, there is no sound coming from the video. Why is that?
[20:58] <cellofellow> how do I fix my sound? I was very happy that Hardy made it possible to use this soundcard (not a peep in Gutsy) but now only one speaker works.
[20:58] <majikins> Steve-cal: I don't get a description
[20:59] <Starnestommy> atlas95: does zenity require the desktop environment to be running?
[20:59] <majikins> I think I'm 'missing' the full output
[20:59] <atlas95> yes yes
[20:59] <atlas95> I'm using gnome and i have zenity
[20:59] <atlas95> (refresh my post )
[20:59] <Starnestommy> atlas95: aha.  You need to add zenity to system > preferences > sessions, and remove it from the init script
[21:00] <majikins> when I put in the command something flashes and I get the last bit of it
[21:00] <chicobo329> BCM43, is there anything else I should do?
[21:00] <BCM43> chicobo329: what did that give you?
[21:00] <atlas95> I have no error when I launch the popup script also :(
[21:00] <frankie_> i am having trouble getting ubuntu to connect to my network. i'm using a netgear ethernet-through-powergrid with a 5 port switch.
[21:00] <Starnestommy> atlas95: er, keep it in the init script.
[21:00] <chicobo329> nothing on the prompt
[21:00] <Steve-cal> majikins: Are you running the command in a gnome terminal?
[21:00] <jedimind> yeah... BorkisDrizzt i have the same problem - need to know if its possible to play multiple audio items at once
[21:00] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: ok, now I'm showing flash 9.0 r48, r 31, AND r124. I wonder how to get rid of r48 & r31
[21:01] <Songtao_> I used to be able to put a [space] in the desktop icon name field, so that it would not have a name. But with the new version I cannot anymore: it requires characters.. Is there a way around this?
[21:01] <majikins> yes
[21:01] <chicobo329> It may have done something in the background, BCM43, but I dunno what else it did.
[21:01] <backslash7> Starnestommy: How to open a SAMBA share using the terminal (ubuntu desktop) ?
[21:01] <Starnestommy> backslash7: I don't use samba, sorry
[21:01] <backslash7> kk
[21:01] <atlas95> the script is provide ins the contrib folder in the last source of arpalert so this must work :/
[21:01] <BCM43> chicobo329: did it return some numbers?
[21:01] <Starnestommy> backslash7: but you might need smbclient for this
[21:01] <Steve-cal> nibsa1242b: That's a really good question. I've never had to mess with uninstalling multiple plugins.
[21:01] <ChristianPunk> how do i rotate a video from horizontol to vertical in a video edit program for ubuntu
[21:02] <chicobo329> nothing, returned nothing, BCM43
[21:02] <teicah> how do I prevent firefox3 (hardy) from auto unminimizing when I am working with other apps?
[21:02] <ChristianPunk> it's a 3gp file
[21:02] <teicah> it's annoying
[21:02] <BCM43> chicobo329: hold on
[21:02] <MAlexHerron> anyone know why /etc/init.d/sysklogd start wouldnt start the sylog daemon?
[21:02] <Steve-cal> majikins: Can you copy and pastebin the output? (pastebin.ubuntu.com)
[21:02] <BCM43> chicobo329: you ran the seccond command, not the first one, right?
[21:02] <frankie_> i'm having trouble connecting to my network through ethernet. any tips/advice/halp?
[21:02] <majikins> Steve-cal: ok
[21:03] <nibsa1242b> Steve-cal: I'll go ask in the mozilla irc channel
[21:03] <chicobo329> BCM43: Yeah, free | grep swap

[21:03] <[D-Tail]> hello people... I have a problem using my mobile phone MMC card. Under #7.10, it mounted automagically, allowing me to delete and add files on it. I recently upgraded to #8.04, and that doesn't work anymore

[21:04] <frankie_> i'm having trouble connecting to my network via ethernet. how can i fix this?
[21:04] <HiTo> Is there an efficient wait to recover data on Ubuntu ? I got a problem thanks to the OS that changed a drive letter... to one I used in VMware, so I lost all my data :/
[21:05] <[D-Tail]> can anyone help me with my MMC mounting problem?
[21:05] <BCM43> chicobo329: hold on one sec
[21:05] <Steve-cal> majikins: Can you copy and pastebin the *entire* output of that command I gave you? "sudo lshw -C network"
[21:05] <atlas95> Starnestommy: do you have idea?
[21:05] <cerebrate> D-tail: is it just a regular card reader on your computer?
[21:05] <majikins> Steve-cal: thats it!
[21:05] <BorkisDrizzt> jedimind, you know how it is possible to play a mp3 file by pointing the mouse at it?
[21:05] <PdUb101> hey guys was wondering if you could point me in the direction of some good themes that will work with the cube effect
[21:06] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: yes, it's a 17-in-1 cardreader, connected to the motherboard's USB header
[21:06] <majikins> Steve-cal: I've done the command with >> file and checked the file
[21:06] <cerebrate> PdUb101: www.gnome-look.org
[21:06] <BorkisDrizzt> I tried doing that and playing a song in rhythmbox at the same time, it worked...
[21:06] <backslash7> lol Starnestommy I'm so sorry, it's the ubuntu text editor having problems with samba :/
[21:06] <majikins> Steve-cal: and thats the only output
[21:06] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: it's an Apacer one
[21:06] <backslash7> With other programs its working
[21:06] <backslash7> sorry
[21:06] <ozzloy> i'm trying to install bugzilla and i get: Error: Access denied for user 'bugzilla'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
[21:06] <cerebrate> D-Tail: have you tried reading any other memory cards with the reader? Do you have any other memory cards?
[21:06] <ozzloy> how do i fix that?
[21:07] <[D-Tail]> I don't have any cards, sorry...
[21:07] <BCM43> chicobo329: uname -a
[21:07] <[D-Tail]> but as I said, it worked on #7.10, now it seems broken
[21:07] <Steve-cal> majikins: OK, what about doing "lspci -v" Does that show your wireless card?
[21:07] <chicobo329> BCM43: Linux frankie-laptop 2.6.24-16-generic #1 SMP Thu Apr 10 13:23:42 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[21:07] <cellofellow> and now it's working. What gives?
[21:07] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: that is, i'm having a hard time modifying stuff on that disk... the best solution for me would be to have it mounted and formatted
[21:07] <cerebrate> D-Tail: I have no clue.  I'm just attempting to see if maybe you just got unlucky and the card died right about the time you upgraded.
[21:08] <[D-Tail]> well, my phone can still read it, so I guess that's no option
[21:08] <BCM43> chicobo329: sudo apt-get update
[21:08] <cerebrate> alright.  Can you mount the disk?
[21:08] <BCM43> chicobo329: while your at it, try free | grep Swap
[21:08] <Jorrrram> how do i rotate a video from horizontol to vertical in a video edit program for ubuntu
[21:08] <chicobo329> BCM43: You want me to get the 2.6.24-17?
[21:08] <Steve-cal> majikins: Are you running Ubuntu on its own partition or are you using Wubi/VirtualBox?
[21:08] <BCM43> chicobo329: yes
[21:08] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: I have no idea how to do this..., except from right-clicking in nautilus
[21:09] <[D-Tail]> and I can only do that as root...
[21:09] <HiTo> No clue for data/partition recovery on Ubuntu ?
[21:09] <Andycasss> I am upgrading my distro from remote, How can i check whats holding it up with ssh? Which log file to watch?
[21:09] <frankie_> can someone give me a hand connecting to my network?
[21:09] <chicobo329> BCM43: I already have it, I just didn't get on it right away because my Broadcom Wirless doesn't seem to be detected when I switch kernel versions
[21:09] <KOJV> Anyone with experience on installing i8kfans in Xubuntu? I get all kinds of errors.
[21:09] <[D-Tail]> previously, it mounted automatically and my non-admin user would have rights to modify it
[21:09] <keith> jelmer: Yeah... I don't think it supports scanning in promiscuous mode. When I run it with sudo in promiscuous mode, it says the operation is not permitted.
[21:10] <majikins> Steve-cal: theres alot of output on that command
[21:10] <cerebrate> D-Tail: Does it do the same thing with any other usb drive?
[21:10] <chicobo329> BCM43: free | grep Swap returned: 'Swap:      2433808          0    2433808'
[21:10] <arthur__8200> Does anyone know how to use remote desktop with ubuntu 8.04 lts ?
[21:10] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: oh wait, there's progress! it now mounts automatically, but it does this as user 'root'
[21:10] <Steve-cal> majikins: Just pastebin it. :)
[21:10] <majikins> Steve-cal: can't spot the wifi - and I'm using own partition
[21:10] <KOJV> Please help me. It's very tireful to keep the CPU cool with mouth to heatsink method...
[21:10] <[D-Tail]> so I can't modify it in a normal way
[21:10] <the_eraser> i want to know what driver a pci-device is using. Help me?
[21:10] <[D-Tail]> where is the mount rule for the device?
[21:10] <BCM43> chicobo329: ok, besides the kernel, im not sure what it would be. I can help you with the broadcom though.
[21:10] <Jaikkuli> hey guys, i got an acer orbicam on my laptop here.. anyone know what software i should be looking for in order to use it on ubuntu hardy?
[21:10] <chicobo329> BCM43: However, my weather information did return on the taskbar.
[21:11] <cerebrate> D-Tail: go to /media.  Is the drive's name in there?
[21:11] <the_eraser> D-tail /etc/fstab ?
[21:11] <[D-Tail]> cerebrate: /media/RS-MMC
[21:11] <ozzloy> i can connect to the mysql database via cli, but dpkg-reconfigure keeps reporting: Error: Access denied for user 'bugzilla'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
[21:11] <chicobo329> BCM43: This is all fine, but should I be doing these steps if GNOME acts up again? It seems to be the source of a lot of my stabilitiy problems lately.
[21:11] <ozzloy> why?
[21:11] <[D-Tail]> the_eraser: nop, it is in /etc/mtab though ;-)
[21:11] <the_eraser> ok
[21:11] <majikins> Steve-cal: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/15398/
[21:11] <BCM43> chicobo329: that is good i had been having small issues like yours for a while. it might be firefox 3.
[21:11] <[D-Tail]> because it's a removeable disk of course...
[21:11] <teicah> how do I prevent firefox3 (hardy) from auto unminimizing when I am working with other apps?  it's annoying
[21:11] <chicobo329> BCM43: AH HA! I knew it!
[21:11] <Jaikkuli> i got an acer orbicam on my laptop here.. anyone know what software i should be looking for in order to use it on ubuntu hardy?
[21:12] <chicobo329> BCM43: It's been acting up on me lately
