[05:52] <spike> Gourami: u can use xmessage
[05:52] <nalioth> Gourami: hmmm, mine worked until i got the blank spaces involved
[05:52] <Tomcat__> Gourami: When I log in, yes, but after that it changes to my set desktop image.

[05:52] <LuZbel> sorry
[05:53] <Miks> how can i add an email applet in the gnome panel?
[05:53] <Iaidoka> How do I make so that my USB-drive (sandisk cruzer) is automounted and shown on the desktop just like cds and and my usb HD?
[05:53] <Miks> because ubuntu doesnt have it
[05:54] <Strife> Miks: sudo apt-get install mail-notification
[05:54] <Blue_Summer> how do u change ur font/ colour in gaim because it changes it after ive said something once
[05:54] <Miks> thanks striffe
[05:54] <Strife> that's a better mail applet anyway :)
[05:54] <Gourami> Tomcat__ so when you login you get plain brown background and then it runs after that ?
[05:54] <Blue_Summer> forget my question guys
[05:55] <Tomcat__> Gourami: I get a plain brown background, but when Gnome has started the desktop changes to the background wallpaper I mentioned.
[05:55] <Gourami> hmmm ok
[05:55] <jeroen_> Tomcat__, that's normal
[05:56] <Tomcat__> jeroen_: Yeah I know... Gourami is asking :D
[05:56] <macewan> whats a kde app for converting audio cd to mp3? don't use kde so not sure what to recommend to wife
[05:56] <jeroen_> Tomcat__, ah, okay :-) Gourami just change the 'solid colour'
[05:56] <Strife> macewan: you should recomend that she uses GNOME ;)
[05:57] <macewan> ;)
[05:57] <Strife> macewan: seriously though, you can use GNOME apps in KDE and vice versa
[05:57] <Strife> there's really no strong reason to want to use one over the other solely, especially if one app happens to be better
[05:57] <apollo2011> I am using Reiserfs for my system root partition on Ubuntu and I noticed that on bootup, it loads the fs read-only and therefore doesn't do a journal replay.  Is there anything I can do to allow it to do a journal replay?
[05:57] <Strife> for example, I use kile for latex editing
[05:57] <Strife> because it's the best one out there
[05:58] <s0lid> hi guys i got a problem i can't put my resolution to 1024X768
[05:58] <Strife> who cares if it's a KDE app?
[05:58] <s0lid> my video card is a s3virge dx 1mb
[05:58] <s0lid> pci
[05:58] <Tomcat__> If you could run apps only on one WM, we'd have a serious problem in the Open Source world... that'd be just like Microsoft. :)
[05:58] <s0lid> in windows it can go at 1024x768
[05:58] <Tomcat__> However, do GTK apps still look crap in KDE and vice versa? :P
[05:58] <Strife> s0lid: does your xorg.conf allow it?
[05:58] <nalioth> s0lid: have you edited your xorg.conf?
[05:58] <Strife> Tomcat__: yes, indeed
[05:58] <Tomcat__> I heard you can use themes to get around that...
[05:58] <{Seb}> this is a nice back: http://ubuntuforums.org/gallery/showimage.php?i=368&original=1&c=popimages&orderby=rating
[05:59] <Strife> Tomcat__: although, KDE has a nice feature where you can make GTK apps look (mostly) like the current Qt theme
[05:59] <s0lid> Strife, yes
[05:59] <s0lid> nalioth, yes
[05:59] <Strife> I kinda wish that GNOME had that too
[05:59] <s0lid> nalioth, im experimenting it
[05:59] <Tsukasa> s0lid, disable xfree86-dga
[05:59] <s0lid> nalioth, i tried to put out other resolution and only put 1024
[05:59] <s0lid> Tsukasa, how can i do that?
[05:59] <nalioth> Tsukasa: hoary doesnt use xfree86
[06:00] <Tsukasa> nalioth, it's a module of extmod anyway
[06:00] <Tsukasa> and it's causing some trouble
[06:00] <s0lid> o yes im using hoary
[06:00] <Strife> s0lid: so what exactly is happening if you can't get that resolution? is it too high a resolution or too low?
[06:00] <nalioth> Tsukasa: why dont you suggest reconfiguring first?
[06:00] <s0lid> Strife, the highest resolution i can go is 800x600
[06:00] <Tsukasa> nalioth, you can do this with just one edit in the xorg.conf :)
[06:00] <Strife> even with 1024x768 in the options?
[06:01] <BollocksMacenzie> Would this command work in bash script? If /dev/hdc exist then
[06:01] <s0lid> i used the driver s3virge and in depth 24 the mode is only "1024x768"
[06:01] <Strife> s0lid: have you tried changing resolutions with ctrl-alt-+?
[06:01] <nalioth> Tsukasa: okee
[06:01] <s0lid> Strife, im trying it now but nothing happens
[06:01] <Strife> s0lid: k
[06:01] <Strife> just worth a shot, I gues
[06:01] <Strife> guess*
[06:01] <s0lid> :)
[06:02] <Strife> s0lid: can you get 1024 if you use a more generic driver?
[06:02] <jamey3> nalioths_dog, I updated my sources.list with the pastebin one you gave me. (I also ran apt-get update.) But now I want to add extra repositories (as shown here: http://ubuntuguide.org/#extrarepositories) but I can't figure what I should add. Before, I ended up with many duplicates and errors.
[06:03] <s0lid> Strife, hmmm... what video driver can i use for that
[06:03] <s0lid> s3?
[06:03] <nalioth> jamey3: please stay away from ubuntuguide
[06:03] <Strife> well I meant like the vesa driver or something
[06:03] <Strife> or whatever it's called
[06:03] <s0lid> so should i change it to vesa?
[06:03] <jamey3> nalioth, why?
[06:03] <nalioth> s0lid: open a terminal and type "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[06:03] <Strife> a type of driver that generically works with most video cards to provide rudiumentary graphics
[06:03] <Strife> s0lid: yeah, try what nalioth says firs
[06:03] <Strife> first*
[06:03] <nalioth> s0lid: choose VESA and the resolutions you want
[06:03] <jiyuu0> nalioth, what's wrong with ubuntuguide?
[06:03] <jamey3> ditto
[06:04] <Shuddertrix> jamey3: according to the Wiki, the same information is in the wiki but is much better and updated.
[06:04] <nalioths_dog> jamey3: Please do not advise ubuntuguide.  Advise https://wiki.ubuntu.com instead.  Item 3 here explains why https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewUsersNetworkGuidelines
[06:04] <Strife> Jimbob: ubuntuguide is completely unofficial, not to mention that it doesn't get into very much detail
[06:04] <nalioth> jamey3: the dog has spoken
[06:04] <Shuddertrix> yeah, that's the one
[06:04] <Strife> I mean jiyuu0
[06:04] <apollo2011> I am using Reiserfs for my system root partition on Ubuntu and I noticed that on bootup, it loads the fs read-only and therefore doesn't do a journal replay.  Is there anything I can do to allow it to do a journal replay?
[06:04] <jamey3> oh I see...
[06:04] <jamey3> why the hell is ubuntuguide linked to from the official site?
[06:04] <nalioth> jiyuu0: you can read that URL, also
[06:04] <jiyuu0> i've read...
[06:04] <Strife> jamey3: because it's not *bad*, it's just not a good place for in-depth informaiton
[06:05] <jamey3> wtf though, if the Wiki is better, just recommend there
[06:05] <jamey3> take down bloody ubuntuguide.org
[06:05] <jamey3> it's a menace!"
[06:05] <jamey3> j/k
[06:05] <Strife> meh
[06:05] <Strife> I say, if a shorter thing can help you at first, you may as well look there to begin with
[06:05] <jiyuu0> i just wonder if it's so bad... how come i get so much good words bout it
[06:05] <Strife> the wiki is great for more in depth stuff
[06:06] <nalioth> jamey3: the URL explains
[06:06] <Strife> but the guide is good for just getting started with things
[06:06] <Tsukasa> jiyuu0, as Strife said it's good for beginners
[06:06] <jiyuu0> today i've seen so many ppl here say ubuntuguide is crap
[06:06] <nalioth> jiyuu0: in #ubuntu we see a lot of users who are hosed because of ubuntuguide
[06:06] <jamey3> but if it presents misguided or "wrong" instructions, newbies are hurting themselves
[06:06] <jamey3> (like myself!)
[06:06] <jiyuu0> i can't make everybody happy
[06:06] <Strife> jamey3: right
[06:06] <jamey3> lol you don't have to
[06:06] <jiyuu0> it's workin fine for many ppl
[06:07] <jamey3> true
[06:07] <jamey3> anyway, can someone help me...
[06:07] <s0lid> ok i'll try to restart brb
[06:07] <Strife> jamey3: honestly, I only recommend it for people who have linux experience already, because then they actually know what the commands it tells you to do are doing
[06:07] <jamey3> I want a default sources.list
[06:07] <nalioths_dog> jamey3: For a ready-to-use sources.list with all official Ubuntu repositories, go to paste.ubuntulinux.nl/38
[06:07] <jamey3> Strife, I understand every command on ubuntuguide.org... but I still consider myself a newbie
[06:07] <jamey3> nalioths_dog, I have. And now I want the "extra" or unsupported sources
[06:08] <jamey3> but ubuntuguide.org presumes you are using the default sources.list
[06:08] <nalioth> jamey3: you asked for a default sources.list
[06:08] <Shuddertrix> jamey3: I think that sources.list already has all that..?
[06:08] <Tsukasa> man, why would anyone have more repositories than the official ones and the backports in his sources.list?
[06:08] <nalioth> jamey3: using the 'unofficial' sources can cause your system to grind to a halt
[06:08] <Tsukasa> too much stuff messes everything up
[06:09] <jamey3> nalioth, most of the packages I want are on the "unofficial" sources
[06:09] <jamey3> Tsukasa, so what do you do?!
[06:09] <nalioth> jamey3: like what for instance?
[06:09] <Tsukasa> I'm fine with the backports
[06:09] <jamey3> backports
[06:09] <jamey3> ?
[06:09] <jamey3> sorry for excess \n's, just itchy fingers
[06:10] <Tsukasa> the backports are a really nice huge archive of software
[06:10] <nalioth> jamey3: i recommend that if you 'need" proggys, to put backports in yoru sources, but comment it out, until you are actively getting the program you want (then comment it back again)
[06:10] <Tsukasa> almost everything you need
[06:10] <Strife> the backports are AWESOME
[06:10] <Tsukasa> they're missing glGo though :p
[06:10] <vido> hello
[06:11] <jamey3> what's the difference between the backports and universe (or whatever)?
[06:11] <jamey3> hello vido
[06:11] <Tsukasa> backports are... uh "semi official"
[06:11] <Tsukasa> dunno
[06:11] <nalioth> jamey3: backports are future ubuntu programs "BackPorted" to hoary
[06:11] <Burgundavia> jamey3, backports are exactly that
[06:11] <Tsukasa> but at least it's a load of software
[06:11] <Burgundavia> universe is non-support software
[06:11] <jamey3> oh I see
[06:11] <nalioth> jamey3: universe and multiverse are unsupported by ubuntu
[06:11] <jamey3> so backports is "better" than universe/multiverse?
[06:12] <Strife> just out of curiosity, has anyone used RedHat's NetworkManager program?
[06:12] <Tsukasa> jamey3, no
[06:12] <jamey3> oh :/
[06:12] <jamey3> what then? :D
[06:12] <Nameless1> can i get some help, you can see my error at http://nameless1.com/ on the main page
[06:12] <Tsukasa> as stated already it's nice to have them all in the list :)
[06:12] <Burgundavia> jamey3, no
[06:12] <Burgundavia> jamey3, they are different things
[06:12] <nalioth> jamey3: backports are the programs we will be using in breezy badger (ubuntu 5.10)
[06:12] <nalioth> jamey3: but we are using them NOW on hoary
[06:12] <Burgundavia> jamey3, there are 4 parts of Hoary main/restricted/universe/multiverse
[06:13] <Burgundavia> those are official, but some are non-supported
[06:13] <Burgundavia> backports is non-offiical and non-supported
[06:13] <Tsukasa> some of the programs from the backports are somewhat unstable
[06:13] <Tsukasa> so beware
[06:13] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: esd is probably running and that's what's making arts not wanting to run.
[06:13] <Strife> backports are great because you keep the workingness of hoary but you get up-to-date software
[06:13] <Burgundavia> although backports is going to become official RSN
[06:13] <Strife> largely
[06:13] <jamey3> so why is everyone so wary of using the multiverse/universe but then recommend I use backports!?
[06:13] <Strife> backports already is officially sponsored
[06:13] <jamey3> oh
[06:13] <Burgundavia> jamey3, that would be the other way around
[06:13] <Nameless1> i was told to turn off esd earlier and that didnt stop it but ill try it again, whats the command... just tried kill esd and that didnt work
[06:14] <nalioth> jamey3: i have never recommended backports
[06:14] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: At least, I think. If you start up to KDE, esd doesn't load up it seems so arts works.
[06:14] <jamey3> Burgundavia, someone told me to use backports instead ^^^
[06:14] <Burgundavia> Strife, they haven't moved onto the official servers yet, and they are not yet offiical sponsored
[06:14] <Burgundavia> jamey3, they were wrong
[06:14] <Nameless1> ill login kde now to test it
[06:14] <Nameless1> brb
[06:14] <jamey3> ok thanks Burgundavia
[06:14] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: killall esd, i think the wiki has some specific instructions for turning off esd completely
[06:14] <jamey3> where can I find a list of *every* source I could possibly use with Ubuntu?
[06:14] <Strife> Burgundavia: meh, you're right... they are hosted by ubuntuforums.org, though
[06:15] <BollocksMacenzie> Can someone help me with my bash script. I'm trying to write something which detects the presence of my DVD drive... I was thinking something like this if /dev/hdc exist then echo connected. Can someone poit out where this isn't working?
[06:15] <Burgundavia> Strife, a soon as jdong gets his key signed, he can move the backports to the official servers
[06:15] <Strife> BollocksMacenzie: /dev/hdc always exists
[06:15] <vido> I have a problem, I'm a user on Compaq Tru64 Unix I wont use this machine as proxy. Now I can only use the shell and Lynx how can do ip_forward?
[06:15] <Strife> Burgundavia: ahh, makes sense
[06:16] <jamey3> If I wanted to get the JRE, would this be the best way? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Java
[06:16] <BollocksMacenzie> Strife: No it doesn't! On my laptop if you boot without the DVD drive in, it doesn't create the entry!
[06:16] <nalioths_dog> jamey3: for java: download the .bin file from java.sun.com, apt-get install java-package, chmod +x [the .bin file] , make-jpkg [the bin file] , dpkg -i [the generated .deb file]
[06:16] <Strife> BollocksMacenzie: so ls /dev/hdc gives an error?
[06:17] <Strife> nalioths_dog: interesting... I never even realized you could do that...
[06:17] <BollocksMacenzie> Strife: "No such file or directory"
[06:17] <shawnh> hi
[06:17] <Strife> BollocksMacenzie: weird
[06:17] <jamey3> nalioths_dog, so the Wiki doesn't tell me that?
[06:17] <Nameless1> shuddertrix: its still not working i have no sound
[06:17] <shawnh> how is  the guy doing
[06:17] <Strife> I need to go run
[06:17] <Strife> later
[06:17] <vido> I have a problem, I'm a user on Compaq Tru64 Unix I wont use this machine as proxy. Now I can only use the shell and Lynx how can do ip_forward to firefox on mypc?
[06:17] <shawnh> where too strife
[06:18] <Strife[afk] > shawnh: around in circles
[06:18] <Strife[afk] > you know
[06:18] <Strife[afk] > for excercise
[06:18] <BollocksMacenzie> Strife: Does however come up when you have to drive connected!
[06:18] <shawnh> ahhhhh
[06:18] <shawnh>  just got in from a round of golf
[06:18] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: configure arts then in the kde control center, but this goes out of the scope of #ubuntu and right into #kubuntu.
[06:18] <shawnh>  only played nine
[06:18] <shawnh>  think I was scarin the guy I was with
[06:18] <shawnh>  getting too good for im
[06:18] <shawnh> yeah right
[06:19] <BollocksMacenzie> Strife: I'm just trying to create a little bash script to load a few commands if the DVD is inserted!
[06:19] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: You're better off just using a different, non-arts plugin for noatun or a different media player like Rythembox or whatever it's called
[06:19] <Melectaus_> Is there any packages to play .wmv files ?
[06:19] <Nameless1> shuddertrix: i tried to go into kde, i installed the kde base system but i cant *log into it* thru the gui ill set that up later but right now i am STUCK in gnome so can i configure it in gnome
[06:20] <nalioth> jamey3: the wiki doesnt have this method, i don't think
[06:20] <xliu> Hi, may I use acpid and acpi instead of apmd?
[06:20] <Melectaus_> Could someone tell me if there are any packages to play .wmv files on ubuntu :-\
[06:20] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: Look at the noatun prefrences, i'm sure there's something. Or, just use a different mmedia player
[06:20] <s0lid> hi guys
[06:20] <Shuddertrix> Melectaus_: mplayer plays wmv, perhaps you are looking for w32codecs instead.
[06:20] <Nameless1> suddertrix: k
[06:20] <nalioth> Melectaus_: if you have w32codecs, most any video/audio player wil ldo
[06:20] <s0lid> i tried to configure it through dpkg-reconfigure but still the highest resolution is 800x600
[06:21] <nalioth> s0lid: did you choose the VESA driver?
[06:21] <Tsukasa> s0lid, what resolutions are present in your xorg.conf in the section "screen"?
[06:21] <s0lid> hmmm... no
[06:21] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: Most IRC clients can tab-complete names, you should perhaps start doing that so I don't have to look through all your responses.
[06:21] <s0lid> wait ill look
[06:21] <Melectaus_> Shuddertrix, yes the codecs are what i need
[06:21] <moparfan90> hello
[06:22] <Shuddertrix> Melectaus_: sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[06:22] <Melectaus_> nalioth, sudp apt-get install w32codecs ?
[06:22] <shinu> what command can i use to check if a file is used by someone?
[06:22] <shinu> fuser?
[06:22] <s0lid> Tsukasa, "1280x1024" "1024x768" "832x624" "800x600" "720x400" "640x480"
[06:22] <Melectaus_> ahh cool, cheers Shuddertrix
[06:22] <Shuddertrix> no problem.
[06:22] <Tsukasa> hm, okay
[06:22] <nalioth> Melectaus_: yes, or go to www.mplayerhq.hu  and download the 'essential package'
[06:22] <Nameless1> shuddertrix: its not in the options menu
[06:23] <lukus001> I have a problem with my CD driver.   I get an error of unable to mount... i think it was chroot the messed it up but can somone tell me how i can fix it
[06:23] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: Make sure nothing else is using sounds.
[06:23] <Nameless1> how do u do that, i have tried to do it. im not a regular user of irc
[06:23] <Shuddertrix> Make sure that gnome's sounds are off, no sound server on boot
[06:23] <nalioth> Nameless1: type na<tab>
[06:23] <jamey3> nalioth, why do you have two usernames? (nalioth and nalioths_dog?)
[06:23] <nalioth> jamey3: i do not have 2 usernames
[06:23] <Nameless1> na<tab>
[06:23] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: Type part of a name (for example, shud) then just press tab.
[06:24] <Melectaus_> nalioth, i tried sudo apt-get install w32codecs and it said it didnt have an install candadate
[06:24] <jasoncohen> Shuddertrix, why is that? sound works here with gnome's sound server
[06:24] <nalioth> Nameless1: type na (and the tab button on yoru keyboard)
[06:24] <Nameless1> na<tab> shudder test
[06:24] <nalioth> Melectaus_: see my response above
[06:24] <Nameless1> ohh i c
[06:24] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: No, don't type out <tab>, press the tab button on your keyboard
[06:24] <jamey3> nalioth, lmao just two different users :)
[06:24] <Melectaus_> ok thanks
[06:24] <nalioth> jamey3: the dog has a script to help me help you
[06:25] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix, test
[06:25] <Nameless1> did that work or do i have to make sure it uses the :
[06:25] <Shuddertrix> jasoncohen: That reply was meant for Nameless1
[06:25] <kgrimm> anyone have an ftp site where i can get the ubuntu install dvd? bittorrent says 2 days to download
[06:25] <nalioth> Nameless1: yer doin fine
[06:25] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: It works. You can change the , to something else in your client's preferences.
[06:25] <nalioth> kgrimm: take a couple days off, then

[06:26] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: Go there if you want to change the comma, since you appear to be using X-Chat
[06:27] <synd> BollocksMacenzie, flooding prevents from anyone saying anything productive.
[06:27] <Shuddertrix> nalioth: :P
[06:27] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix: its workin now
[06:27] <virtuald> why does it look like this when i use utf-8 in irssi? http://<IP_ADDRESS>/~danielh/2005-07-04-174745_1152x864_scrot.png
[06:27] <BollocksMacenzie> synd: Calm down, you're taking this all too seriously.
[06:27] <cdc> could someone tell me the filename in the Linux Source which shows the implementation of NTP?
[06:27] <synd> BollocksMacenzie, oh please. just don't flood. end of story.
[06:27] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix: so back to the audio problem, i couldnt find that thing in noatun.... u kno how to fix the audio?
[06:28] <cdc> i want to look into the NTP implementation of NTP in Linux
[06:28] <CEM`27> hello
[06:28] <bluefoxicy> bluefox@icebox:~$ sudo apt-get remove `deborphan | xargs`
[06:28] <bluefoxicy> After unpacking 23.4MB disk space will be freed.
[06:28] <bluefoxicy> :)
[06:28] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: Make sure that gnome's sounds are off, no sound server on boot. It might help, it might not help. You can just get around this by using a different media player in the meantime.
[06:28] <nalioth> virtuald: looks fine to me (what am i looking for?)
[06:29] <virtuald> nalioth: look at the input lie
[06:29] <virtuald> line
[06:29] <virtuald>  becomes \uFFFF
[06:29] <Melectaus_> How do i start my wifi card in terminal
[06:29] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix: i havent got another mediaplayer setup properly with codecs tho :( and this one looks like it will run perfect once i get this sound setup
[06:29] <BollocksMacenzie> synd: All right, all right... Don't get your knickers in a twist!
[06:29] <bluefoxicy> bluefox@icebox:~$ sudo apt-get remove `deborphan | grep -v gstreamer |  xargs`
[06:29] <nalioth> virtuald: utf-8 must be above my head
[06:29] <bluefoxicy> That's a little safer.
[06:29] <virtuald> mkay
[06:29] <virtuald> B]
[06:30] <Melectaus_> Could someone please tell me how to start my wifi card in terminal
[06:30] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix:  how do u turn gnome sounds off??  i dont want to lose gnome sounds :(
[06:30] <Melectaus_> in a terminal*
[06:30] <ubuntu> is gnome 2.11.x being backported to hoary? I'm playing with Colony 2 Live right now and the new tree/list view in nautilus is <3
[06:31] <synd> Melectaus_, System > Admin > Networking
[06:31] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: Looks like your only choice is to use a different media player, since you don't want to lose sounds
[06:31] <synd> Melectaus_, you can activate it there.
[06:31] <s0lid> hi guys i just used vesa but nothing still happened
[06:31] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix: what one do u recomend?
[06:31] <Shuddertrix> I don't know exactly where it is in gnome-panel, I don't use it
[06:31] <nalioth> s0lid: are you restarting your x?
[06:31] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: What are you trying to play?
[06:32] <s0lid> nalioth, yes
[06:32] <Melectaus_> synd, it isnt showing
[06:32] <s0lid> :)
[06:32] <Melectaus_> only eth0 and modem is there
[06:32] <Bariki> Hihi
[06:32] <nalioth> s0lid: try it with 24bit color
[06:32] <s0lid> im using 24 bit already
[06:32] <nalioth> Melectaus_: please tell us your hardware specs
[06:32] <synd> Melectaus_, is it a PCI or PCMCIA card?
[06:32] <nalioth> s0lid: then take it down to 16
[06:32] <synd> Melectaus_, or integrated
[06:32] <s0lid> is there a way to change bit to 24
[06:33] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix: avis -- divx - xvid     dvds  mov stuff like that       i download LOTS of videos off peer 2 peer so u figure + i have vid tutorials in *.mov so i need *.mov at some point
[06:33] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, what media player are you trying to use?
[06:33] <s0lid> oh yeah 16 it is ill try it :)
[06:33] <Melectaus_> harware, well its a edimax ew-7108pcg wifi card (pcmcia)
[06:33] <Nameless1> jasoncohen: im tryin to use noatun but its not giving me sound
[06:33] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, if you have xine instaleld with w32codecs it can play all your quicktime, divx,/xvid, mpeg etc. movies
[06:33] <synd> Melectaus_, you'll need to use ndiswrapper
[06:33] <jasoncohen> why not use xine, totem, or kaffeine?
[06:33] <Melectaus_> ok synd
[06:34] <Bariki> Anyone know if Uduntu 5.04 supports SATA RAID controllers? Specifically Promise FastTrak 378.
[06:34] <Nameless1> jasoncohen: does xine come with a gui tho?
[06:34] <Shuddertrix> Nameless1: I would recommend xine or mplayer in that case (gxine, gmplayer too) along with w32codecs. You'll probably want to use totem/kaffeine for everything, then.
[06:34] <synd> Melectaus_, if that card's chipset isnt automatically being seen by ubuntu's drivers
[06:34] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, yes
[06:34] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, as does totem and kaffeine
[06:34] <Nameless1> jasoncohen: considering i have codecs that DO WORK installed for nautun will i have to setup codecs with this other thing?
[06:34] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, and xine is extremely fast to startup & use- it supports DVD menus & subtitles with a nice menu interface
[06:34] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, it's easy
[06:35] <BollocksMacenzie> Is there a way of getting a list of bash commands?
[06:35] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, and you can also use totem-xine which will use xine's codecs
[06:35] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, if you have backport & backport-extras just apt-get install xine-ui totem-xine w32codecs
[06:35] <s0lid> :) tnx guys!
[06:35] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, kaffeine is also quite nice
[06:35] <Nameless1> jasoncohen:  i dont have them
[06:35] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, and you'll want mozilla-mplayer or kaffeine-mplayer for firefox
[06:35] <Shuddertrix> The only good thing about xine for me is the DVD menus, but since I only own 2 dvd's, I just use mplayer (personal choice)
[06:36] <Bariki> Any idea about those SATA RAID controllers?
[06:36] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, http://ubuntuguide.org/#extrarepositories
[06:36] <Nameless1> Shuddertrix: i have to figure out how to setup this thing to "update" its list but is mplayer in it
[06:36] <lukus001> im about to format my pc going from ubutu64bit to 32bit, i should be able to do that with no problems?
[06:36] <jasoncohen> you need the lines below ## Backports
[06:36] <Nameless1> jasoncohen: you read my mind lol
[06:37] <nalioths_dog> jasoncohen: Please do not advise ubuntuguide.  Advise https://wiki.ubuntu.com instead.  Item 3 here explains why https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewUsersNetworkGuidelines
[06:37] <action09> BollocksMacenzie  i dunno one sorry , but try bash advanced scripting guide, goof one to start..
[06:37] <jasoncohen> Nameless1, gedit /etc/apt/sources.list, and add those two lines to the bottom. then apt-get update and apt-get install xine-ui totem-xine w32codecs
[06:37] <jasoncohen> nalioths_dog, ok
[06:38] <Nameless1> jasoncohen: will do, gimmie a sec brb
[06:40] <jamey3> Does anyone have any experience with Rhthymbox and iPods? I am trying to copy a single MP3 from the iPod to my desktop. Strange this is: the progress indicator is *increasing* in seconds!
[06:40] <buzbe> anyone got any ideas how to speed up dvd burning?
[06:41] <buzbe> I'm only getting speeds of 0.1x
[06:41] <jtorq> Hello, can anyone recommend a good program I can use for mobile networking that will allow me to change profiles and use a wired connection priority over wireless?
[06:41] <^thehatsrule^> ouch ^^
[06:41] <jamey3> buzbe, I think you need to enable DMA support. But I don't know how
[06:41] <Nameless1> is there a way to search thru files in the file database thru the console instead of loading that gnome program?
[06:41] <buzbe> I think dma support is enabled...
[06:41] <jamey3> find / -iname "name of file"
[06:41] <jamey3> or slocate "name of file"
[06:41] <jamey3> run updatedb to update the file database
[06:41] <^thehatsrule^> buzbe/ jamey3: dma is hdparm -d1 /dev/blah
[06:42] <Nameless1> yup
[06:42] <buzbe> ^thehatsrule^, done that
[06:42] <^thehatsrule^> oh :S
[06:43] <buzbe> any other ideas?
[06:43] <djp> buzbe: using cdrecord use speed=x (replace x with desired speed)
[06:43] <buzbe> well i've tried using k3b, and setting the speed at 8x but it still only writes at 0.1x
[06:43] <bccs> hi
[06:44] <lukus001> I'm trying to get my audio to work, i have a ASUS A8n-e deluxe motheboard with a built-in optical port - how do i get my sound to play through it?
[06:44] <djp> buzbe: nice --18 cdrecord -eject -v speed=2 dev=0,6,0 -data -pad foo.iso
[06:44] <cdc> could someone tell me a good P2P Client for Linux?
[06:44] <bccs> i'm trying to compile mono from source, but when i use ./configure, it's trying to use glib-1.2
[06:44] <jamey3> Does anyone have any experience with Rhthymbox and iPods? I am trying to copy a single MP3 from the iPod to my desktop. Strange this is: the progress indicator is *increasing* in seconds!
[06:44] <bccs> how can i make ./configure use glib-2.0???
[06:44] <buzbe> djp: whats the nice command do?
[06:44] <cdc> could Someone tell me a goog p2p Client for Linux ?
[06:44] <djp> buzbe: that is obviously just an example. you will need to change relevant info for your needs
[06:44] <nalioth> cdc gtk-gnutella, dc++, bittorrent, amule, emule, etc etc
[06:44] <jamey3> *Rythmn
[06:44] <jamey3> oh fuck lol
[06:44] <nalioth> jamey3: gtkpod?
[06:45] <jamey3> nalioth, but I like rhythmbox!
[06:45] <Nameless1> jasoncohen: installin totem-xine thanx  YAY I HAVE AUDIO!
[06:45] <nalioth> jamey3: but gtkpod interfaces with ipods
[06:45] <Hentai> Hello all
[06:45] <djp> buzbe: lowers the priority of an app
[06:45] <jamey3> nalioth, so does rhythmbox!
[06:46] <Blue_Summer> Whats the difference between totem and totem-xine?
[06:46] <cdc> nalioth, does dc++ run in Ubuntu?
[06:46] <nalioth> jamey3: i think you need gtkpod on the system
[06:46] <jamey3> oh I see
[06:46] <jamey3> thanks :)
[06:46] <nalioth> cdc: there is a dc++ client for ubuntu
[06:46] <djp> Blue_Summer: there is totem-gstreamer and totem-xine
[06:47] <djp> Blue_Summer: i prefer totem-gstreamer
[06:47] <bluefoxicy> Does apt unpack to /tmp and then copy the files to /?
[06:47] <blueyed> what's better? sharing a fat32 partition between winXP and Ubuntu or an ext3 (I have a driver for XP that can read/write ext3)?
[06:47] <Blue_Summer> djp,  i use totem lol the one that comes pre installed, just got the codecs and its fine so what does gstreamer and xine do different?
[06:47] <jtorq> I have an issue where if I put eth0 to use DHCP, but then move my laptop elsewhere, at the next boot it will pause for several minutes trying to get an address
[06:47] <bluefoxicy> blueyed:  where is that driver, and ext3 is better
[06:48] <bluefoxicy> blueyed:  if the driver works
[06:48] <djp> Blue_Summer: default totem is the gstreamer version
[06:48] <Blue_Summer> djp,  kk, so what does xine do different?
[06:48] <nalioth> blueyed: the fat32 method is better  (depend on windoze for nothing)
[06:48] <djp> Blue_Summer: if you want to use restricted codecs i you should install the gstreamer-plugins package
[06:48] <aCiD2> Eeep, I broke Ubuntu! Im not sure what I've done but apparently my system has broken packages
[06:48] <bluefoxicy> aCiD2:  sudo apt-get -f upgrade
[06:48] <nalioth> blueyed: are you wanting to access the drive from windoze and linux?
[06:48] <aCiD2> I tried using the filters with synaptic but its displaying all packages
[06:48] <ompaul> jtorq, why whould you have a laptop with a static ip ?
[06:49] <Hentai> I would like a link for that ext3 driver
[06:49] <aCiD2> bluefoxicy, I'll give that a shot
[06:49] <cdc> nalioth, could u please tell me the name of the client?
[06:49] <Blue_Summer> djp,  i dont want codecs i just want to know what totem-xine is
[06:49] <blueyed> yes, nalioth.
[06:49] <nalioth> aCiD2: are you using unofficial repositorys?
[06:49] <jtorq> ompaul, it's not - it's using DHCP
[06:49] <nalioth> cdc: open synaptic and search for dc++
[06:49] <jeroen_> aCiD2, do you use Breezy Badger or non-official repos
[06:49] <aCiD2> 1 non-official repo
[06:49] <jeroen_> aCiD2, which one?
[06:49] <ompaul> jtorq, what is eth0? a physical ethernet card or wireless?
[06:49] <Hentai> blueyed can I get link or something for that ext3 driver?
[06:49] <cdc> nalioth, i searched and its showing me a lot of packages i dont know which one of those? :-)
[06:49] <aCiD2> Hmm, I'll just find i
[06:49] <aCiD2> +t
[06:50] <nalioth> blueyed: then i'd recommend the fat32 method (i don't want windows having the ability to read/write to my linux stuff)
[06:50] <jtorq> ompaul, eth0 is my wired connection, and ra0 is my wireless
[06:50] <aCiD2> deb http://acm.cs.umn.edu/ubp/ hoary-backports main universe multiverse restricted
[06:50] <blueyed> Hentai: I'll search it.
[06:50] <nalioth> cdc: dcclient i believe
[06:50] <Hentai> ok
[06:50] <blueyed> nalioth: it would be a shared partition, just for data..
[06:50] <djp> Blue_Summer: different engines basically
[06:50] <beginnerMKII> Hey guys im trying to install drivers for a Speedtouch Alcatel modem on a recently installed Ubuntu , i am new to linux and am following the instructions off here http://www.linux-usb.org/SpeedTouch/ubuntu/ , i have all the files downloaded on floppy and am in the terminal typing in what it says off the page, the thing is its asking me to type "sudo alien -i libatm*" to instal something, and im getting asked for a password, it didn't me
[06:50] <nalioth> blueyed: then fat32 i'd recommend
[06:50] <bluefoxicy> blueyed:  where'd you get the driver from
[06:50] <beginnerMKII> I think this is quite an important part of installing the driver, help !
[06:51] <Blue_Summer> djp,  do they look different?
[06:51] <ompaul> jtorq, is this an issue when you use eth0 and want to move to ra0 next boot?
[06:51] <jeroen_> aCiD2, maybe that's causing the problem, what were you doing when it gave errors?
[06:51] <Blue_Summer> djp,  ill check the webby for some screenies
[06:51] <nalioth> guys the winduhs ext3 driver is easily googlable
[06:51] <jtorq> ompaul, no it's an issue where it's trying to get DHCP when it's not plugged in
[06:51] <djp> Blue_Summer: no you won't notice any difference in terms of gui
[06:51] <concept10> hey nalioth, hows it going today
[06:52] <aCiD2> jeroen_, apt-get update-dist
[06:52] <aCiD2> or dist-update
[06:52] <aCiD2> (Im a bit new :P()
[06:52] <Blue_Summer> djp,  i cant be botherd then ;)
[06:52] <jeroen_> aCiD2, dist-upgrade I guess ;-)
[06:52] <aCiD2> yep :)
[06:52] <Hentai> yep nalioth is right
[06:52] <jtorq> ompaul, I've used ifplugd and wrote a script that makes it get DHCP only when it's plugged in, but that's no a solution for my wireless
[06:52] <jeroen_> aCiD2, what is the exact error? (Which package is broken?)
[06:52] <aCiD2> everything seems to be working nicely now though, thanks guys
[06:52] <aCiD2> it was firefox-gnome
[06:52] <djp> Blue_Summer: if you have the default totem working fine, stick with it! :)
[06:53] <nalioth> concept10: great! and you?
[06:53] <Blue_Summer> djp,  kk lol
[06:53] <ompaul> jtorq, as I read it you want to be static with ra0?
[06:53] <jtorq> ompaul, http://people.redhat.com/dcbw/NetworkManager/ seems to be exactly what I want, but I've never got it to work in either Debian or Ubuntu
[06:53] <jtorq> ompaul, no, just DHCP as well
[06:53] <nalioth> Hentai: i was right about something?
[06:54] <concept10> nalioth, cant complain!
[06:54] <littlefae> Hiya
[06:54] <blueyed> nalioth, bluefoxicy, Hentai: this is the driver: http://www.fs-driver.org/download.html - it was reviewed in the german c't magazine.
[06:54] <ompaul> jtorq, sorry I do not understand what you are doing, is that you plug in then move from wireless to wired, when you are finished in the place where it is wired you want to be wireless again?
[06:54] <Blue_Summer> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:54] <spike> is anybody using amarok here? mp3s work fine, but web radios don't, it crashes on me as soon as I try to play one
[06:54] <littlefae> Anyone know much about Enlightenment?
[06:54] <Blue_Summer> oops soz
[06:54] <ompaul> jtorq, as you walk, so to speak
 guys the winduhs ext3 driver is easily googlable
[06:54] <blueyed> spike: I use it and it has problems, yes. Try changing the engine.
[06:54] <Hentai> yeah you were just the driver I found only supports read and not write
[06:54] <nalioth> blueyed: bluefoxicy i dont recommend enabling windows to read/write to your linux stuff
[06:54] <ulisse> hi all
[06:55] <bluefoxicy> nalioth:  i konw.
[06:55] <blueyed> nalioth: as said, it's just a data partition thingie.
[06:55] <ulisse> I've just installed beagle two days ago, but it seems I only can find web pages, not files...
[06:55] <nalioth> easier to convert or originally format fat32
[06:56] <nalioth> Hentai: with windows know data mining behavior, i don't even want it reading my linux stuff
[06:56] <Dreezard> hi everyone
[06:56] <nalioth> Hentai: known bad behavior
[06:56] <Dreezard> got a little question here
[06:56] <blueyed> but wouldn't have ext3 have advantages with Linux?
[06:56] <jtorq> ompaul, essentially
[06:57] <littlefae> Anyone know how I can get all the apps I have in gnome to be listed in Enlightenment?
[06:57] <concept10> ulisse, find the beagle IRC channel and ask those guys howto index your files
[06:57] <nalioth> blueyed: using only linux, ext3 is great, but having other non-*nix OS' sharing is diffecult
[06:57] <Dreezard> It may be stupid to ask but: Is there a way to set the preferred video player so that the videos will be opened with e.g. vlc and not totem?
[06:58] <Dreezard> in gnome i mean
[06:58] <blueyed> Dreezard: with gnome/nautilus?
[06:58] <Dreezard> yeah
[06:58] <ompaul> jtorq, so how are you telling the machine that you want to reactivate ra0 ?
[06:58] <Dreezard> I'm not so into gnome yet
[06:58] <ompaul> jtorq, what I would do is a crude kludge, sudo dhclient :)
[06:58] <nalioth> Dreezard: yes, right click on your preferred video in nautilus and click 'open with' and then select ''always open with' at the bottom
[06:59] <blueyed> there is me neither, Dreezard. sorry.
[06:59] <ompaul> jtorq, after telling it ifdown eth0; ifup ra0
[06:59] <jtorq> ompaul, right now every time I want to use wireless I have to say ifconfig ra0 up;dhclient ra0
[06:59] <jtorq> ompaul, ifup/ifdown don't even work for me anymore
[07:00] <jasoncohen> is anyone using colony 2? how is it?
[07:00] <Dreezard> thx nalioth. But isn't there a more easy way to set that on more video formats instead of doing that for each one?
[07:00] <jtorq> ompaul, "Ignoring unknown interface ra0=ra0"
[07:00] <ompaul> jtorq, yuk
[07:00] <beginnerMKII> Where can i get a 'firmware-extractor' ?
[07:00] <jiyuu0> Dreezard, check out http://ubuntuguide.org/#xine-ui
[07:00] <jiyuu0> it sets xine for all multimedia apps
[07:00] <nalioth> Dreezard: it will take for each format
[07:01] <nalioth> Dreezard: not each title
[07:01] <fc> how can I share my printer with a windows pc?
[07:01] <fc> i tried everything
[07:01] <fc> nothing works
[07:01] <jtorq> ompaul, I also noticed when the links come up they have an extra route I have to remove or I can't access my network computers
[07:01] <xisco> hi
[07:01] <xisco> good afternoon
[07:01] <xisco> I am desesperate
[07:01] <ompaul> jtorq, pastebin /etc/network/interfaces
[07:01] <nalioth> Dreezard: don't read too much over at ubuntuguide (besides what jiyuu0 told ya)
[07:01] <xisco> can anyone help me?
[07:01] <Strife> xisco: sorry, I will not sleep with you
[07:01] <BollocksMacenzie> In bash the $? variable returns the value of the last executed program, now how do I use it... I had if [ $? = "1" ] ; then but it doesn't seem to work, little help?
[07:02] <Dreezard> I know that player, but the video formats were just an example. I guess there's no "central controll" of all the formats is there?
[07:02] <xisco>  HA HA
[07:02] <nalioth> xisco: we need a question, first
[07:02] <xisco> Im horny too ha ha
[07:02] <xisco> I need to do a webcam chat
[07:02] <xisco> how can i do it?
[07:03] <beginnerMKII> Whats gcc?
[07:03] <jeroen_> compiler, beginnerMKII
[07:03] <Dreezard> ok. many thx so far
[07:03] <ompaul> beginnerMKII, a c compiler
[07:03] <xisco>  how can i configure cam on ubuntu?
[07:03] <jtorq> ompaul, http://pastebin.ubuntulinux.nl/406
[07:03] <beginnerMKII> It says i need a copy of it to compile this firmware extractor thing, where can i get one from?
[07:03] <Dreezard> I'll just take a look at that userguide
[07:03] <jtorq> ompaul, that's all that's in there
[07:03] <ompaul> jtorq, thanks
[07:03] <Dreezard> by then
[07:03] <xisco> and is there any program like ams to cam chat?
[07:03] <nalioth> beginnerMKII: install 'build-essential' using synaptic
[07:04] <jasoncohen> xisco, use gnomemeeting
[07:04] <fc> how can I share my printer with a windows pc?
[07:04] <jeroen_> beginnerMKII, you can install it with synaptic, but if you want to build programs, you'd better install build-essential, as nalioth suggests
[07:04] <xisco> I dont know how to use it
[07:04] <Oly> hiya, come for a bit of help my networking is b0rked :/
[07:04] <jeroen_> beginnerMKII, build-essential will also install gcc
[07:04] <beginnerMKII> Ok too complicated, can't i get a firmware extractor from anywhere that doesn't require this gcc thing?
[07:04] <ompaul> jtorq, nothing as primary which do you use most ra or eth
[07:04] <littlefae> Anyone know anything about enlightenment?
[07:04] <jasoncohen> xisco, it's already installed- applications > internet > gnomemeeting and run the configuration druid
[07:05] <nalioth> beginnerMKII: just install 'build-essential' it won't hurt anything and will be there for future use
[07:05] <littlefae> I'm moving from gnome to it, as it's faster, and gives far less corruption than I get on metacity
[07:05] <Oly> i am using breezy and since my last update networking has been knocked out something todo with permissions and missing file
[07:05] <Strife> configuration druid... heh
[07:05] <spike> blueyed: what engine do u use? I've tried arts (using kde) and gstreamer but no luck.
[07:05] <Oly> anyone hit snags at all
[07:05] <Oly> ??
[07:05] <Strife> "We can't call it wizard. What should we call it?" "I know, how about druid!"
[07:05] <beginnerMKII> Where do i find that nalioth?
[07:05] <spike> oh, he's gone
[07:05] <littlefae> Thing is, i want ALL the apps from my metacity WM to be listed on enlightenment, is there I way I can do this easily?
[07:05] <jeroen_> xisco, the 'test' version of amsn, the so-called cvs-version has support for webcam chat, but it's under development and not really stable. You can also use your cam with gaim by installing the package gaim-vv
[07:05] <Oly> SIOCSIFADDR:Permission denied
[07:05] <Oly> SIOCSIFFLAGS:Permission denied
[07:05] <Oly> SIOCSIFNETMASK:Permission denied
[07:05] <Oly> SIOCSIFBRDADDR:Permission denied
[07:06] <Oly> i get those errors when trying to get my ip
[07:06] <Strife> what are you using to get your ip?
[07:06] <jeroen_> Oly, with what command?
[07:06] <Oly> dhclient eth0
[07:06] <Oly> tried 2 network cards
[07:06] <Strife> us ifconfig eth0
[07:06] <Strife> use*
[07:06] <Oly> they are both out
[07:07] <Strife> sudo ifconfig eth0
[07:07] <Oly> okay will give that a go
[07:08] <jtorq> ompaul, well, ra0 is easier around the house, but I'd like for eth0 to be primary for the sake of speed
[07:08] <jtorq> ompaul, and I've heard that using an `auto` stanza in interfaces conflicts with ifplugd
[07:09] <sensayshun> Are there any frames per second monitors for ubuntu?
[07:09] <snugglebunny> I have the latest libnjb installed from source. And a late .deb file. How do I install the .deb file without installing the old libnjb?
[07:09] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> anyone here know about sound cards?
[07:10] <snugglebunny> apt-get -cfile.deb install --ignore-missing doesn't seem to work
[07:10] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> i have a real problem with mine
[07:10] <jeroen_> ChurcH_of_FoamY, describing your trouble would help to get an answer
[07:11] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> oh ok
[07:11] <ompaul> jtorq, not aware of that
[07:11] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> first heres the config for the sound card : http://pastebin.com/307321
[07:11] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> now when i play audio it will only use 1 sound at a time
[07:11] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> if mplayer is running the system sounds will not work
[07:12] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> if teamspeak RC2 is running nothing else can play sounds
[07:12] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> is there a way to fix this
[07:12] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> so that more than 1 program can use sound at a time?
[07:13] <shinu> anyone knows a nice program to play MUDs? :)
[07:13] <ompaul> jtorq, reading a little more on that now :)
[07:14] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> cause it's really frustrating only being able to do one thing that involves sound at a time
[07:14] <jeroen_> ChurcH_of_FoamY, it has to do with sound servers, some can and some can't play multiple sounds at the same time, but I really don't know a thing about that :p
[07:15] <djp> does xine require w32codecs in order to playback divx files?
[07:15] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> damnit
[07:15] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> i really need help with this lol
[07:15] <ompaul> jtorq, there is a suggestion in --> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-25952.html <-- that may help look at dejitarob post at 9:45pm
[07:16] <jeroen_> ChurcH_of_FoamY, can you set your system, or the invidual apps you're experiencing problems with to use another sound server?
[07:16] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> i don't know
[07:16] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> i wasen't aware it could be done
[07:16] <jeroen_> maybe there's an mplayer plug-in for alsa, esd, etc
[07:16] <jeroen_> try ;-)
[07:17] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> kk
[07:17] <Oly> w00t sudo ifconfig eth1 seems to have worked yay
[07:17] <Oly> bit baffled as to why, thought that just displayed current settings
[07:18] <Oly> :p
[07:18] <Gourami> I have created a new desktop user, however when I log on as this user I am unable to share a folder, is there something I need to do to enable this user to share a folder ?
[07:18] <jeroen_> Gourami, system -> administration -> shared folders ?
[07:19] <Gourami> jeroen_ I get the password prompt, enter my password then no response or error
[07:19] <jeroen_> Gourami, wrong password error? If so, enter the correct password :p
[07:19] <jtorq> ompaul, hmm, yeah, that's similar to what I had before
[07:19] <jeroen_> Gourami, not your own, the password of that user
[07:20] <jeroen_> Gourami, or maybe you should change the permissions of your newly-created user
[07:20] <Gourami> I am using the password of that user, I get no error, I click ok and the password window just goes away and nothing happens
[07:20] <jiyuu0> if not mistaken, your new user needs to have admin/sudo priviledge
[07:20] <jeroen_> system -> administration -> users and groups
[07:20] <jtorq> ompaul, it just doesn't seem like a real fix, unfortunately :(
[07:21] <jeroen_> Gourami, then click on your user and change its settings
[07:21] <jeroen_> (properties)
[07:21] <Heimdall> can I ask a question about azureus on my ubuntu ?
[07:21] <jeroen_> user privileges -> executing system administration tasks
[07:21] <jeroen_> make sure its checked!
[07:22] <jeroen_> Gourami
[07:22] <Heimdall> I have more than 1000 seeders for a torrent file, but no download begin after a long time.... what sort of pb could it be ?
[07:22] <sensayshun> are there any frames per second monitors for ubuntu?
[07:23] <littlefae> You people in here are nice and helpful, I've a query about enlightenment.  Please say someone in here knows about it?
[07:24] <jeroen_> littlefae, just ask is the topic
[07:24] <othernoob> Heimdall are you even connected to any of them
[07:25] <littlefae> I did, twice
[07:25] <Heimdall> othernoob, the little head is red... but 0 connection to the sources
[07:25] <jtorq> ompaul, thank you very much for your time though - I think I'm going to experiment with it a bit more
[07:25] <littlefae> I was wondering how to edit the user menus, so I can add firefox, etc
[07:25] <jeroen_> littlefae, its a DE?
[07:25] <jeroen_> *it's
[07:26] <Gourami> but I dont want all users to have sudo priveleges just to share a folder ?
[07:26] <littlefae> DE?
[07:26] <littlefae> It is enlightenment
[07:26] <othernoob> Heimdall, the smiley should be green..not red..
[07:26] <othernoob> Heimdall, looks like you should configure your connection properly.
[07:26] <Heimdall> yeah I know this is my pb
[07:27] <ompaul> jtorq, I would suggest making two config files - and swapping one for another
[07:27] <jeroen_> littlefae, desktop environment
[07:27] <Heimdall> othernoob, what could I configure....???
[07:27] <littlefae> Yes it is
[07:27] <jeroen_> littlefae, I think I can help you, let me search my e-mail archives....
[07:27] <ompaul> so you want eth0 or ra0 it is sitting there and dhclient should get it in a few seconds
[07:28] <jtorq> ompaul, before I was thinking about writing a curses frontend to switch profiles and reload the configurations
[07:28] <othernoob> Heimdall, maybe your isp blocks the ports 6881:6889
[07:28] <othernoob> try a different one.
[07:29] <Heimdall> othernoob, isp ?
[07:30] <jeroen_> littlefae, you can manually edit ~/.local/share/applications (only for your account) or system-wide /usr/share/applications/
[07:30] <Gourami> how do I give a shared folder permissions only for a specific user ?
[07:31] <ompaul> jtorq, if you have /etc/network/interfaces and foo_1 and foo_2 and you just copy the correct one for the job into place with dhclient it becomes easy I think, with the following line at the end of the file with eth0 or ra0 as required:   iface eth0 inet dhcp  <-- I put my full working interfaces file on this box - the other machine here seems to have no problems if I bring it down and plug it in - however it is not mine and kinda heavy
[07:31] <ompaul> :)
[07:32] <littlefae> Edit it to what?  I'm assuming that it's a folder full of links?
[07:32] <jeroen_> littlefae, it's a folder full of links, yes
[07:32] <jeroen_> littlefae, you can edit them, but if you want a new one, just copy and old one and rename it
[07:32] <jtorq> ompaul, heh, well thanks, I'll check it out
[07:33] <arentie> Does anyone know how to configure vpnc?
[07:33] <Heimdall> othernoob, what is isp ? is there a mean to test that my ports are ok ? (even amule does not download, but upload very fast)
[07:33] <littlefae> Incidentally, doesn't the Ubuntu or Universe repository have enlightenment 17 yet?
[07:33] <jeroen_> littlefae, http://archive.ubuntu.com/
[07:33] <ivoks> want to see a nice screenshot? :)
[07:34] <ivoks> of a totaly rocking operating system, called ubuntu :)
[07:34] <kgrimm> after first install and reboot. it starts downloading pkgs off the net. how long does this usually take?
[07:34] <ivoks> kgrimm: depends on speed

[07:35] <s0lid> how can i run a script on startup of ubuntu
[07:35] <s0lid> in redhat i only need to add it at /etc/rc.local
[07:36] <s0lid> but there's no such thing in ubuntu
[07:36] <Mahl> Hello
[07:36] <Mahl> I was wondering how do I select what Login manager I want
[07:36] <jeroen_> s0lid, I think init.d, but  don't really now
[07:36] <Mahl> what package do I need to reconfigure :P
[07:36] <ivoks> Mahl: dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[07:36] <kotatsu> I can't put my finger on it, but font rendering is... weird in breezy. did something change? subpixel smoothing + autohinting makes the fonts look... dunno, thinner? than they used to be
[07:37] <Mahl> Thanks
[07:38] <jeroen_> ivoks, that's absurdly transparant
[07:38] <ivoks> jeroen_: yeah :)
[07:38] <TokenBad> in ubutu is there a way to free cashed memory?
[07:38] <ivoks> jeroen_: i was testing the limits
[07:38] <s0lid> jeroen_, well that would do the trick but not as what redhat does
[07:39] <ivoks> s0lid: it' easy
[07:39] <jeroen_> s0lid, I haven't used RedHat since 7.3, so eh....
[07:39] <jeroen_> littlefae, why? Maybe it's in Breezy :p
[07:39] <ivoks> s0lid: you have to put your script in /etc/rc2.d/
[07:39] <jeroen_> that's what Breezy's for
[07:39] <ivoks> s0lid: and name it SXXmyscript
[07:39] <littlefae> Breezy is a distro...
[07:39] <ivoks> s0lid: where XX is number
[07:40] <ivoks> time to go... bye all
[07:40] <fc> how can i make localhost:631 work for configuring cups?
[07:40] <jeroen_> littlefae, Breezy is just the test-version of Ubuntu
[07:40] <ivoks> fc open /etc/cups/cupsd.conf
[07:40] <jeroen_> littlefae, which has new packages but isn't rock-stable
[07:40] <ivoks> fc: and comment last two lines, with AuthClass and AuthStyle
[07:40] <aCiD2> Hi, is there some documentation on getting 3d hardware acceleration with an ATi card anywhere?
[07:40] <mgcross> hello all!!!
[07:40] <henke> s0lid, or use the tool made for it, 'update-rc.d'
[07:40] <ivoks> fc AuthClass and AuthType
[07:41] <fc> ivoks, thank youi
[07:41] <fc> -i
[07:41] <mgcross> I'm running an nvidia card...latest kernel update break it?
[07:41] <jeroen_> aCiD2, the wiki
[07:41] <ivoks> mgcross: every kernel upgrade will breake it
[07:42] <ivoks> mgcross: you just have to run nvidia installer again
[07:42] <mgcross> hmmm, last one didn't...
[07:42] <mgcross> didn't use nvidia-installer...used APT
[07:43] <fc> ivoks, do you know what the location is if I make a new class?
[07:43] <ivoks> new class?
[07:43] <ivoks> ah... <Location>? :)
[07:44] <fc> yes
[07:44] <ivoks> <Location /classes/your_new_class>
[07:44] <djp> what is the nv driver for nvidia?
[07:44] <ivoks> ?
[07:44] <xliu> where is the configuration file listing the programs which startup when login?
[07:45] <ompaul> spike,  seen this  http://ftp.fukt.bth.se/pub/movies/stallman/
[07:45] <fc> ivoks, http://localhost:631/admin < new class < location, what is that?
[07:45] <djp> ivoks: is the nv driver the non-restricted driver?
[07:46] <ivoks> fc: classes are classes :) it enables you to print on one class, and that class can contain 10 printers...
[07:46] <ivoks> fc: this way, your print job will go to the printer that will be idle first
[07:46] <ivoks> djp: yes, nv driver is free driver
[07:46] <fc> ivoks, yes, but what do I have to enter in the location input
[07:46] <ivoks> fc: nothing :)
[07:46] <fc> :\
[07:46] <djp> ivoks: thanks
[07:47] <ivoks> bye all
[07:51] <no0tic> hi
[07:51] <no0tic> I'd like to configure Apache-MySQL-PHP to work together, who can help me?

[07:52] <BollocksMacenzie> fi
[07:53] <mcquaid> does anyone know a way of capping the max volume for alsa?
[07:54] <mcquaid> I don't want users to go above 74% as I get static any higher than that
[07:55] <cajun> how can i figure out what path the OS uses for a particular program to run it?
[07:55] <Tasapaksu> Is there any way to install Steam and Counter-Strike to Ubuntu ?
[07:55] <^thehatsrule^> Tasapaksu: yes, steam
[07:56] <Quest-Master> Tasapaksu: Cedega
[07:56] <Tsukasa> cajun, like where the link from bin goes?
[07:56] <xisco> any one can help me to install my webcam xpress genius?
[07:56] <Epik> is there any risk of f* things up when installing aewm++ on a ubuntu installation??
[07:56] <^thehatsrule^> Tasapaksu: if you meant dedicated server or what?
[07:56] <Tasapaksu> I want to play CS
[07:56] <mcquaid> cajun, well if it's in your path you can type which 'name of program' and it will list where it's located
[07:56] <Quest-Master> Yeah, Cedega then
[07:56] <^thehatsrule^> Tasapaksu: then youll need to emulate it
[07:56] <Tasapaksu> Cedega is not free?
[07:56] <Quest-Master> You can try a CVS version
[07:56] <Tsukasa> you can also type "where <programname>"
[07:57] <Quest-Master> Otherwise, $5 a month for 3 months or just $15 up front
[07:57] <js_> Tsukasa: you mean whereis
[07:57] <Tsukasa> err, yeah
[07:57] <cajun> thx   sounds good
[07:57] <no0tic> I'd like to configure Apache-MySQL-PHP to work together, there's anyone who could help?
[07:58] <virtuald> my /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config has disappeared, can anyone give me theirs?
[07:58] <Epik> am i being ignored or is my question just too stupid?? :S
[07:58] <Tasapaksu> But is Cedega free software?
[07:58] <cajun> and whereis looks for the executable right?   like for firefox i'd type "whereis mozilla-firefox"?
[07:59] <js_> cajun: it checks for PATH and MANPATH for an executable and man page with that name
[07:59] <Tsukasa> Tasapaksu, you can access wineX cvs, it's like cedega except some closed-source components are missing (like copy protection related stuff)
[07:59] <mcquaid> cajun, correct
[07:59] <Tasapaksu> Hmmm
[07:59] <Tasapaksu> So I haft to install wineX
[08:00] <Tsukasa> or you subscribe to transgaming and get the debs
[08:00] <cajun> which is the executable for the browser?  mozilla-firefox or firefox?  same qwuestion for Thunderbird
[08:00] <Tsukasa> ubuntu uses mozilla-firefox
[08:00] <cajun> ok
[08:01] <cajun> and how can i find hidden files to edit when using the Text Editor?
[08:01] <Burgundavia> cajun, just to confuse you, it changes to firefox in breezy
[08:01] <cajun> right now i have to go through the file browser and then just dbl click them
[08:01] <mcquaid> heh
[08:01] <mcquaid> for confusion purposes only
[08:01] <Tsukasa> cajun, the console is capable of intelligent completion
[08:01] <mcquaid> cajun in a term ls -a shows hiddne
[08:02] <cajun> where do i type that?
[08:02] <Tsukasa> that means you can type sudo gedit .x and press tab and well... hidden files beginning with .x will show up
[08:02] <Mestapheles> Mesta
[08:02] <mcquaid> or reveal hidden in naut or whatever browser you use
[08:02] <Tsukasa> err be added
[08:02] <cajun> well waht about for the GUI text editor?
[08:02] <mcquaid> in gedit?
[08:02] <ompaul> cajun, you will see the hidden files as having a starting character of a '.'
[08:03] <cajun> I click Applications/Accessories/Text Editor
[08:03] <swen> Does anyone know how I can use debian unstable sources without getting the "NO_PUBKEY" no public key avaiable error?
[08:03] <mcquaid> ok your using gedit which in the gnome open dialog box which most apps use don't show hidden by default
[08:03] <moire> hi, is there any german chat?
[08:04] <Tsukasa> try #ubuntu-de or #ubuntu.de
[08:04] <cajun> how can i change that setting mcquaid?
[08:04] <moire> thx
[08:04] <mcquaid> right click and choose show hidden
[08:04] <mcquaid> right click where the files and dirs are listed
[08:04] <cajun> will it save that setting?
[08:05] <mcquaid> eh can't remember

[08:19] <jimcooncat> Anyone here using hosting service at linode.com or quantact.com? If so, please pm me with your opinion. Ubuntu rocks! I'd like to try it from a faster connection than I have here at home.
[08:20] <HiddenWolf> how do I check if a certain kernel module is loaded?
[08:21] <Juhaz> lsmod?
[08:21] <BollocksMacenzie> Does anyone know how to remove the clock syncronisation line from the boot?
[08:21] <HiddenWolf> And how do I load a module?
[08:21] <swen> modprobe
[08:22] <marc> hello
[08:22] <marc> is there a preconfigured firewall on ubuntu ?
[08:22] <richo> Hi there. Im a former Mandrake user and has just installed ubuntu... i use eth0 and eth1 and want to share internet connection on eth1. are there any built in gui guides or so?
[08:23] <gbic> marc iptables
[08:23] <marc> and which script set it ?
[08:24] <gbic> iptables --help
[08:24] <gbic> read up :)
[08:24] <skull> swen, i wrote you something in a private windows
[08:24] <BollocksMacenzie> How do I find my MAC address?
[08:24] <richo> ;d
[08:24] <gbic> ifconfig
[08:24] <marc> i mean is there a startup script which add some iptables rules ?
[08:24] <gbic> as I said
[08:24] <gbic> iptables --help
[08:25] <Discipulus> I can't mount my CD-Rom drive :-\
[08:26] <richo> Any internetsharing modules or so in ubuntu that i can start or what can i do to get my internetconnection shared from eth0 to eth1?
[08:26] <gbic> use nat
[08:26] <Seveas> richo, firestarter can do that for you
[08:26] <Discipulus> hmm
[08:26] <Seveas> in firestarter it's one button :)
[08:26] <Discipulus> actually, data cd's mount just fine
[08:26] <Blue_Summer> can anyone give me the link to where it says i can download nvidia drivers? is it sudo apt-get install nvidia-glz
[08:26] <Blue_Summer> nvidia-glx
[08:26] <Discipulus> it's Music cd's that won't mount
[08:26] <Blue_Summer> ?
[08:26] <Discipulus> why won't music cd's mount?
[08:26] <Discipulus> they're burnt
[08:26] <Seveas> Discipulus, ehm, music cd's cannot be mounted....
[08:26] <Discipulus> :-\
[08:26] <Seveas> there are no files on them...
[08:26] <Discipulus> Seveas, why?
[08:27] <Seveas> ^---
[08:27] <Discipulus> Seveas, yes there is, my musc....
[08:27] <Discipulus> music*
[08:27] <richo> Seveas, firestarer? is that with ubuntu cd or do i have to dl it?
[08:27] <gbic> marc; check out apf
[08:27] <Juhaz> music tracks aren't files
[08:27] <gbic> might be more along your lines if youre new to iptables
[08:27] <Seveas> you will have to download it with apt-get or synaptic
[08:27] <tiglionabbit> Discipulus: there are programs like KAudioCreator and such that can rip them, and you should be able to play them
[08:27] <Discipulus> oh
[08:27] <Discipulus> alright
[08:27] <AlexBO> Is there anyone that feels like to help me to install a PP Scanner? I've got the UMAX Astra Scanner 1220P with a Parallalel Port connection. It's fully supported by SANE, that's a default installed package in ubuntu 5.04 . it doesn't work. I've try to do a lot of things, changes, but now I don't know what to do.
[08:28] <Seveas> or just play the CD with totem
[08:28] <richo> Seveas, ok thx ill dl it then
[08:28] <Juhaz> although cdfs can virtualize audio cd's as files, dunno if it's in ubuntu repos
[08:29] <Discipulus> how good is the default CD Ripper with Ubuntu?
[08:29] <Discipulus> good or no?
[08:29] <jeroen_> Discipulus, it works
[08:29] <richo> bra eller anus ;)
[08:29] <jimcooncat> AlexBO - may be helpful if you were able to hook up another scanner as a test?
[08:30] <Discipulus> jeroen_, is goobox better?
[08:30] <Juhaz> what's "default cd ripper"? sound-juicer?
[08:30] <jeroen_> Discipulus, no idea
[08:30] <AlexBO> unfortunately i've not an other scanner...
[08:30] <Discipulus> Juhaz, yea
[08:30] <djp> sound juicer rips to ogg vorbis by default also, which is a good thing!
[08:30] <Discipulus> I don't want ogg vorbis
[08:30] <Juhaz> decent enough, I suppose, if the gnome philosophy of not very much in the way of preferences doesn't bother you
[08:30] <Discipulus> I want MP3
[08:31] <Juhaz> and if gstreamer doesn't break
[08:31] <jimcooncat> Stupid stuff -- printer port working, all the pins in the cable, none bent>
[08:32] <Mestapheles> is there a ubuntu RAID howto somewhere?
[08:32] <djp> Discipulus: http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/audio/audio.html#Guide
[08:32] <djp> Discipulus: ;)
[08:32] <marc> i dont't understand: the defaut iptables' policy is ACCEPT but all my ports are closed for others computers of my network.
[08:32] <AlexBO> jimcooncat: i haven't understood what have you written.
[08:33] <neighborlee> anyone else seeing ( breezy and yes I know ) update notifier   unable to upgrade gnome-applets and applets-data ?
[08:33] <Discipulus> does XMMS play Ogg Vorbis?
[08:33] <jeroen_> Discipulus, I think it does
[08:33] <djp> Discipulus: yes
[08:34] <HiddenWolf> Is anyone here familiar with lirc?
[08:34] <jeroen_> Discipulus, works with beep-media-player, so prob with xmms aswell
[08:34] <jimcooncat> Sorry, just wondering if your hardware -- printer port and scanner cable -- was ok. Bent cable pins and stuff like that have messed up my day when I thought it was something wrong with the software.

[08:41] <lsuactiafner> kernel 2.6.12
[08:41] <lsuactiafner> anything i can try to do to fix it?
[08:41] <ompaul> AlexBO, 1d barcode is what you see on the side of a can of beans or most goods in a shop, two d is much more information in the form of a bitmapped image
[08:43] <ryu> hi
[08:43] <AlexBO> ompaul: well, i think it's 2d
[08:43] <ompaul> ahh
[08:43] <AlexBO> ompaul: can i speak to you in private?

[08:48] <mike333> yea system > administration

[08:50] <jeroen_> kasper_, while booting? Or when choosing operating-system with Grub?
[08:50] <kasper_> jeroen_: while booting
[08:50] <jeroen_> kasper_, maybe Splashy, but it doesn't work for my sister's system (couldn't install it)
[08:51] <jeroen_> http://splashy.alioth.debian.org/
[08:51] <tiglionabbit> kasper_: there is, just look at the forums
[08:51] <tiglionabbit> you don't need splashy
[08:51] <tiglionabbit> it's a configuration in grub

[08:53] <tiglionabbit> oh you mean after the grub menu?
[08:53] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, could you please give me a rundown on how to build those modules?
[08:53] <jeroen_> tiglionabbit, no, thats what *(s)he* means
[08:53] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, extra-tree or intra-tree?
[08:55] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, I just want to make this work for me, however possible, and I'd like to see them included in the default kernel at one piont.
[08:55] <pig> hi. i need some help

[09:01] <HiddenWolf> hidde@system:/usr/src$ tar -xzf lirc-modules.tar.gz
[09:02] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, so they should be extracted to modules/...
[09:03] <Geir_G> Hi, anybody know how to do an apt-cache search on a specific maintainer?
[09:03] <airmikey> anyone here running vmware
[09:03] <airmikey> What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
[09:03] <airmikey> kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]
[09:03] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, yeah, there now: ./modules/lirc
[09:03] <ChurcH_of_FoamY> yes why?
[09:03] <Seveas> apt-cache search --full $maintainername
[09:05] <Geir_G> Thanks Seveas, but that doesn't seem to work
[09:05] <Geir_G> I'm doing a apt-cache search --full Marillat
[09:06] <Geir_G> returns blank
[09:06] <psh1> any ideas whats up with the kernel config, anyone?
[09:07] <`crimsun> psh1, what about it?
[09:07] <Spooks> Hi all
[09:07] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, did you see the instructions in the README*?
[09:07] <Geir_G> airmikey: If you have the headers installed it usuall is just that
[09:08] <psh1> `crimsun, i've built a kernel, but it wont boot. but there's no kernel panic message. it just stops before the init process
[09:08] <jeroen_> How do I play .mp4 files with Ubuntu?
[09:08] <Hoxzer> hmm, somebody else have had problems with Ubuntu AMD64 live CD?
[09:08] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, trying to make sense of them
[09:09] <Hoxzer> it just frozes in some random places for like 15mins
[09:09] <`crimsun> jeroen_, you need to install libfaad2, among other packages
[09:09] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, it's not really working out for me tho. :S
[09:10] <`crimsun> psh1, presuming the kernel was compiled and installed correctly, did you update grub/lilo?
[09:10] <Hoxzer> lol dont froze
[09:10] <Hoxzer> :D
[09:10] <psh1> `crimsun, yeah i've changed the grub config, not sure whats wrong. i think it's something to do with the config
[09:11] <Hoxzer> "configuring graphics hardware (the screen may blank).... 73%
[09:11] <Hoxzer> wonderful
[09:11] <Hoxzer> .... no way :D
[09:11] <Hoxzer> well we'll wait for 10mins
[09:11] <Hoxzer> then I have to sleep
[09:11] <Hoxzer> wtf is it with this
[09:12] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, what's the kernel version/revision number?
[09:12] <Sewa_Kan> hi
[09:12] <Hoxzer> I'm afraid I have some hardware issues ;/
[09:12] <Hoxzer> just installed new mother board
[09:12] <Sewa_Kan> how can i shut up the buzzer plz?
[09:12] <Fabian> hello everyone
[09:12] <jeroen_> `crimsun, is libfaad in multiverse or what?
[09:13] <Sewa_Kan> how can i shut up the fuckin'buzzer plz?
[09:13] <`crimsun> jeroen_, debian-marillat
[09:13] <jeroen_> `crimsun, no thanks
[09:13] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, the README in /usr/src/modules/lirc
[09:13] <jeroen_> suck so much
[09:14] <jeroen_> it's the go-open video! :@
[09:14] <jeroen_> and it doesn't work with Ubuntu! That is sooooo evil
[09:14] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, read the non-make-kpkg method
[09:15] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, namely, debian/rules KSRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r) binary-modules
[09:15] <Hoxzer> aargh is there any linux live CD that just goes to console and I could copy my important saved files from HDD?
[09:15] <Fabian> question: when trying to use bittorrent I get the following error: rejected by tracker     Port 6881 is blacklisted                 What can I do about that? The Port is forwarded through my router!
[09:16] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, do i need to install kernel source too?
[09:16] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, no. I gave you all the instructions.
[09:16] <Hoxzer> Fabian: 6881 is a default port for bittorrent and ISP's know that and they could limit it and thats why some trackers wont allow that port
[09:16] <Hoxzer> just change it
[09:17] <Blue_Summer> guys if i run command: tar -xvzf  cedega-[version] .tgz (enterd version ofc) where would it install my version?
[09:17] <Blue_Summer> sorry i mean : dpkg  -i  cedega_[version] .deb
[09:17] <jf6> hi all
[09:17] <jf6> how to uninstall GAIM?
[09:17] <tiglionabbit> Blue_Summer: use dpkg -L and the name of the package it says it just "selected"
[09:17] <cmatheson> jf6:  aptitude uninstall gaim
[09:17] <Blue_Summer> kk
[09:17] <bpuccio> jf6: you can go in to synaptic and search ofr the package and remove it there
[09:18] <Fabian> Hoxzer, how can I change that for GNOME BitTorrent?
[09:18] <jf6> cmatheson thanks a lot
[09:18] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, make: *** [build-stamp]  Error 2
[09:18] <jf6> bpuccio thx
[09:18] <Hoxzer> Fabian: I think you cant
[09:18] <Hoxzer> just go to console and write btdownloadcurses --maxport 2000 --minport 1000 file.torrent
[09:18] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, did you read the README?
[09:19] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, read, yes, understand, perhaps
[09:19] <MikeStyle> um hi guys, i ran sudo apt-get install kde and installed the kde enviornment on ubuntu but when i tried to change to the theme it stayed with the human theme
[09:19] <Fabian> Hoxzer, in the location where that torrent file is?
[09:19] <`crimsun> MikeStyle, it's kubuntu-desktop
[09:20] <MikeStyle> `crimson, so sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop ?
[09:20] <jeroen_> MikeStyle, yes
[09:20] <MikeStyle> thank you
[09:20] <jeroen_> MikeStyle, that iwll install kde and all the apps
[09:20] <Hoxzer> Fabien: yep'
[09:23] <s1m0> hi
[09:23] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, you need to choose which specific driver you want, else you'll have to install all the build-deps
[09:24] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, you have to read and understand both README.make and README
[09:24] <gpd> anyone got any advice on getting sound to work on chroot'd 32Bit system?
[09:25] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, both those files seem to asume full kernel sources to be installed.
[09:25] <gpd> I followed the guide and the forum but still no luck with /dev/dsp :(
[09:26] <Hoxzer> hey, im running ubuntu live
[09:26] <Hoxzer> how can I acces to my HDD?
[09:26] <Fabian> How can I edit the entrie in the topleft menu?
[09:26] <Toba> is there a reason that the sceensaver daemon will just stop working from time to time?
[09:26] <Toba> I found that I can't lock screen sometimes, and I figured out that the screensaver daemon was down
[09:26] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, README.make tells me to build the driver first, to the best of my knowledge that's lirc_serial, but building it exits with an error
[09:27] <`crimsun> HiddenWolf, then you'll need to install the kernel source (linux-source-2.6.10), extract it in /usr/src, and go from there. Remember to pass the correct KSRC parameter to debian/rules.
[09:27] <`crimsun> I have to go now.
[09:28] <Toba> bah
[09:28] <Toba> I guess I'
[09:28] <scott> anyone know of a legal music site that has mp3s and works in linux?
[09:28] <Toba> ll just have to restart it every so often
[09:28] <Toba> www.legaltorrents.com
[09:28] <jeroen_> scott, ogg is more linux-friendly
[09:28] <scott> jeroen_: I really doubt there's a music purchasing site that has oggs
[09:29] <Toba> purchasing != free
[09:29] <scott> I want mainstream stuff, not bizarre unknown music
[09:29] <eyequeue> purchasing?
[09:29] <Hoxzer> aargh how can I acces to  my Hard driver in Ubuntu live ;/
[09:29] <scott> yeah, it doesn't have to be free
[09:29] <HiddenWolf> `crimsun, thanks
[09:29] <Toba> heh
[09:29] <Toba> try using itunes with wine maybe
[09:29] <Toba> you can get it for windows
[09:29] <cmatheson> Hoxzer:  mount it (mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/<foo>)
[09:30] <Kyral> Anyone know how to get Guification Themes for Gaim working?
[09:31] <cmatheson> Kyral:  aptitude install gaim-guifications
[09:31] <cmatheson> Kyral:  and then enable it in the plugin's listings
[09:31] <Kyral> I have it working
[09:31] <aCiD2> What is the command for listing all the currently loaded modules?
[09:31] <jeroen_> aCiD2, lsmod
[09:31] <jewel32> aCiD2: lsmod
[09:31] <cmatheson> aCiD2:  lsmod
[09:31] <aCiD2> ah, thats the one!
[09:31] <aCiD2> :)
[09:31] <Kyral> I'm trying to get themes from SF to work
[09:31] <gpd> nobody using AMD64 then?
[09:31] <jewel32> Kyral: You just unzip them in the right place
[09:31] <jewel32> Kyral: Let me go get one real fast and remember how to do it.
[09:32] <cmatheson> Kyral:  untar them in ~/.gaim/guifications/themes
[09:32] <Kyral> Do you have one of the Aquas?
[09:32] <Hoxzer> hmmm
[09:32] <Fabian> Hoxzer, how do I resume with this shell-based torrent? same command?
[09:32] <cmatheson> Kyral:  yeah
[09:32] <Kyral> I can't get the recent one to unzip right
[09:32] <Hoxzer> Fabian: yes

[09:34] <Fabian> Hoxzer, thx
[09:34] <tiglionabbit> Hoxzer: juts make an empty folder.  Mount doesn't create the folder itself
[09:34] <cmatheson> Hoxzer:  you need to make that directory
[09:34] <Hoxzer> ok
[09:34] <Hoxzer> mkdir

[09:39] <Hoxzer> damn
[09:39] <MikeStyle> hi, um i did sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and it still looks like the human ubuntu theme
[09:39] <Riddell> MikeStyle: make sure you're logging in to KDE
[09:39] <Kyral> I was off by ONE S!!
[09:39] <tiglionabbit> Hoxzer: uh, I'm not completely sure what you said, but um, use Ubuntu.  It's good
[09:39] <Hoxzer> well have to reinstall windows then and forget all save games
[09:39] <MikeStyle> Riddell, i think i am...but im not sure
[09:40] <Hoxzer> Tigli: yep but games doesnt support ubuntu
[09:40] <misfit_toy> is the marillat repo dead? I am trying to run the .sh script from ubuntuforums for new installs, the one that loads all the goodies like mp3, dvd, etc...and I'm guessing my sources.list needs updating. I have used the one suggested there but it doesn't work.
[09:40] <TimmyJ> anyone know of a program suited towards watching TV on ur computer while doing other things (like the abilitiy to resize, make fullscreen, but still change channels) I don't need to be able to fast forward and rewind liveTV (although it would be nice:P)
[09:40] <Riddell> MikeStyle: well KDE looks quite different (blue, not brown)
[09:40] <HiddenWolf> TimmyJ, tvtime
[09:40] <tiglionabbit> Hoxzer: buy cedega
[09:40] <TimmyJ> thx, i'll check it out :)
[09:40] <mrpickles> http://bearjuice.jollyrogersband.com/
[09:40] <MikeStyle> Riddell, when i logged in it used the kubuntu login screen, but now that im in, the theme is still human, just a darker brown
[09:41] <jeroen_> TimmyJ, it's quite cool :-)
[09:41] <Riddell> MikeStyle: I suspect that's gnome, change the session to KDE when you log in
[09:41] <MikeStyle> Riddell, okay
[09:42] <TimmyJ> doesn't work w/ ivtv drivers :(
[09:43] <TimmyJ> any other suggestions?
[09:43] <MikeStyle> Thank you so much Riddell, it worked

[09:51] <mcquaid> god damn does anyone else go through this?!  my gf keeps arguing with me that she wants to be able to have root access if she encounters a problem
[09:52] <mcquaid> i told her i trust her intent not her abilities
[09:52] <gbic> In order to have localhost listen on port 443 do I need apache running for it to listen on that port?
[09:52] <jeroen_> mcquaid, give her a separate partition?
[09:52] <gbic> give her jailed "rewt" access
[09:52] <gbic> hehe
[09:53] <bpuccio> mcquaid: does she have her own system?
[09:53] <mcquaid> i told her, if she wants root, i'll install her own version of linux and she can destroy it as much as she likes
[09:53] <mcquaid> for whatever damn reason she wants this one's root
[09:54] <mcquaid> and no she doesn't have her own system we share this puter
[09:54] <mcquaid> i'd love to give her jailed root, if there was such as thing
[09:54] <bpuccio> mcquaid: then no
[09:55] <aimaz> what is the program to convert between unix and windows newline types in text files?
[09:55] <gbic> In order to have localhost listen on port 443 do I need apache running for it to listen on that port?
[09:55] <gbic> or how can I have it listen on port 443
[09:55] <bpuccio> mcquaid: my gf has her own computer and I told her how to do basic things that require a sudo here and there, but then again, I image her entire disk nightly so worst case scenario, she has to step back a day
[09:55] <bionic> Anyone ever experienced pc freezes after a while when the screensaver is on? Ati drivers... Comp is very stable when i disable the screensaver, when its enabled the comp freezes everytime after a while..?
[09:56] <eyequeue> dos2unix (1)         - Converts text files between DOS and Unix formats.
[09:56] <mcquaid> bpuccio, but you don't give her root to your box right?
[09:56] <aimaz> eyequeue, thanks
[09:56] <mcquaid> it'll be a cold day in hell before i give her root to this box
[09:56] <HeliumFX> Question, is ubuntu good for a file server or would i be better using another distro
[09:56] <eyequeue> sysutils: /usr/bin/dos2unix
[09:56] <eyequeue> np
[09:56] <bpuccio> mcquaid: of course not, I'm not stupid
[09:56] <mcquaid> exactly
[09:57] <aimaz> bionic, I had a problem with certain screensavers, I think it turned out to be an out of date nvidia driver, but that was on a debian box, not had any trouble in ubuntu
[09:57] <mcquaid> but she won't stop bustin my chops over it for whatever reason
[09:57] <mcquaid> heh it's just dumb relationship bs
[09:57] <bpuccio> mcquaid: offer a trade, something she'll never go for, you'll give her root when she lets you have threesomes or something
[09:58] <mcquaid> lol
[09:58] <phoinix> I've just installed ubuntu
[09:58] <phoinix> !
[09:58] <ubotu> I don't know, phoinix
[09:58] <richo> eyequeue, thx now its comming down ;)
[09:58] <eyequeue> mcquaid:  there's more to root than admin, perhaps that's it?
[09:59] <phoinix> hello from greece!
[09:59] <eyequeue> mcquaid:  as in the ability to read all your (non-encrypted) data?
[09:59] <gpd> just installed amd64 hoary and chroot 32 bit system... but no sound  :(
[09:59] <mcquaid> i hear what your saying, naw i have nothing to hide in my own
[09:59] <mcquaid> although she breaks my balls when she finds my porn
[10:00] <Fabian> Hello, I just tried to watch a DVD but it sais, that I do not have libdvdcss tried to search and install it whith synaptics, but that didn't work. What do I do?
[10:00] <mcquaid> but ya eyequeue i think that is her motvies
[10:00] <mcquaid> to have access to my home
[10:01] <mcquaid> women like to snoop
[10:01] <mcquaid> and that bugs me
[10:01] <mcquaid> so i guess it becomes a trust issue
[10:01] <eyequeue> cfsd (8)             - cryptographic file system daemon
[10:01] <mcquaid> she was used to in windows that everything was shared back in my win98 days
[10:01] <budluva> Fabian, try libdvdcss2
[10:01] <jewel32> Fabian: I believe it's in multiverse
[10:01] <pepsix> did i man?
[10:02] <Fabian> budluva, nothing like libdvdcssXY in synaptic
[10:02] <Fabian> jewel32, there's no multiverse package
[10:02] <jewel32> Fabian: Sorry, you're right
[10:02] <budluva> Fabian, apt-get install libdvdcss2-dev
[10:02] <Fabian> eyequeue, cfsd, was that for me?
[10:03] <eyequeue> Fabian:  no, for mcquaid
[10:03] <Fabian> eyequeue, ok
[10:03] <hellfire> Has anyone used comsams
[10:03] <Fabian> budluva, does not work...
[10:03] <hellfire> with samsung sgh e700?
[10:03] <budluva> Fabian, get your sources fixed
[10:04] <Fabian> budluva, how do I do that?
[10:04] <budluva> Fabian, ubuntuguide.org
[10:04] <budluva> Fabian, either that or your not su'd
[10:04] <jewel32> Fabian: according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com//RestrictedFormats, the libdvdcss2 is in backports
[10:05] <jewel32> Fabian: On that page it also says that you can run /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh
[10:05] <budluva> Fabian, sorry, used to debian, did you try sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[10:05] <budluva> ?
[10:06] <freddy> HELLO!!!
[10:06] <k4rp0r> hi
[10:06] <freddy> i love everytime i boot my ubuntu
[10:06] <freddy> i feel complete
[10:06] <rob_> hey freddy
[10:06] <misfit_toy> is the marillat repo dead? I am trying to run the .sh script from ubuntuforums for new installs, the one that loads all the goodies like mp3, dvd, etc...and I'm guessing my sources.list needs updating. I have used the one suggested there but it doesn't work. Does anyone have a superb sources.list I could get?
[10:07] <rob_> freddy,  so do i w00t
[10:07] <eyequeue> i need to reboot soon too (new kernel)
[10:07] <freddy> at least on my laptop :) cause on my desktop my tv card wont work :(
[10:07] <topyli> misfit_toy: ubuntuforums is not always accurate. also, marillat sources don't work, they're for debian
[10:07] <freddy> another question...what is kubuntu?
[10:07] <eyequeue> misfit_toy:  i thought marillat was deprecated in favor of backports?
[10:07] <jewel32> misfit_toy: you can install mp3 support from universe
[10:07] <budluva> freddy, ubuntu, but with kde instead of gnome
[10:08] <freddy> i mean i googled but it is the same distro with kde?
[10:08] <rob_> freddy,  kubuntu is ubuntu with the kde desktop instead of gnome
[10:08] <freddy> O_o thats kinda like...a waste
[10:08] <rob_> freddy,  yes it is
[10:08] <rob_> lol
[10:08] <freddy> anlol
[10:08] <freddy> err
[10:08] <freddy> lol
[10:08] <rob_> freddy,  i use xfce and gnome :P
[10:08] <misfit_toy> I want to run the script though that install ALL the good stuff, has no one used that? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=22646&page=1&pp=10
[10:08] <Fabian> budluva, tried both! My sources are uncommented already
[10:08] <freddy> so for xcfe you have to name it like Xubuntu?
[10:08] <freddy> lol
[10:09] <budluva> Fabian, you have http://ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net/ in there somewhere?
[10:09] <freddy> jesus im using the xcompositing...on gnome...shadows and stuff.....god damn it is awesome
[10:09] <freddy> oh..but kubuntu is free too?
[10:09] <rob_> freddy,  XFCE can run with ubuntu installed lol
[10:09] <rob_> freddy,  yes it is
[10:09] <eyequeue> freddy:  there is actually a project to do just that, and called ... xubuntu, lol
[10:09] <rob_> lol
[10:10] <freddy> eyequeue, lmao
[10:10] <eyequeue> bubuntu == blackbox wm? lol
[10:10] <hellfire> Has anyone used comsams?
[10:10] <tiglionabbit> what about fubuntu for fluxbox?
[10:10] <freddy> HAHA
[10:10] <pinko> flubuxtu
[10:10] <terrex> xdddddd
[10:10] <budluva> Fabian, http://ubuntuguide.org/#extrarepositories
[10:10] <rob_> freddy,  after u've added extra repositories type sudo apt-get install xfce4 then when u next log in click session and choose it from the list :P if u don't like it you can click session and click gnome again :P
[10:10] <budluva> Fabian, then apt-get install libdvdcss2
[10:10] <topyli> misfit_toy: since the script obviously doesn't work, why do you want to run it? :)
[10:11] <Burgundavia> budluva, please don't recommend ubuntuguide
[10:11] <rob_> Budluva your not supposed to recommend ubuntuguide
[10:11] <freddy> rob^, gonna try it
[10:11] <freddy> but my priority right now is to install my tv card
[10:11] <freddy> :(
[10:11] <hitest> What's wrong with ubuntu guide?
[10:11] <pinko> what's wrong with it?
[10:11] <Burgundavia> inaccurate and often wrong
[10:11] <pinko> I've never been there, but...
[10:11] <Burgundavia> no explainations
[10:12] <hitest> Okay, didn't know that, thanks.
[10:12] <budluva> well i use ubuntuguide's sources.list and i have no problems with libdvdcss2, just trying to help a brother out
[10:12] <tiglionabbit> yeah it doesn't explain stuff, but it gets the repositories ok
[10:12] <Burgundavia> budluva, the wiki also has good sources
[10:12] <freddy> the wiki is the bomb
[10:12] <DeCaoS> why in gb.archive.ububtu has php4-odbc or odbc-postgresql and in archive.ubuntu.com doesn't have :(
[10:13] <pinko> I'm going to start a poor-quality microsoftguide.com and watch their empire crumble
[10:13] <rob_> budluva well i use ubuntuguide's sources.list and i have no problems with libdvdcss2, just trying to help a brother out
[10:13] <eyequeue> the wiki is nice, plus easily edited if need be
[10:13] <budluva> rob_, ?
[10:13] <rob_> i got mine from ubuntuguide.org aswel it was good but it says in the rules not to because it is often wrong budluva
[10:13] <budluva> rules?
[10:13] <budluva> since when was there rules for using linux?
[10:14] <tiglionabbit> budluva: maybe they mean the rules of the irc channel
[10:14] <budluva> maybe
[10:14] <freddy> i have a question, its not that i find REALLY anoying old the text that flows thru the screen when i boot ubuntu, but since i installed this on my mothers laptop, that freaks her out, and she wants something prettier.....is there a way that i can "mask" that black screen?
[10:14] <Fabian> budluva, yes, I have all lines uncommented. when doint apt-get install libdvdcss2 it sais, I do have the newest version
[10:14] <hitest> I'll pass along the observation that the guide is sometimes wrong to my fellow ubuntu users.  Is it also because it is not officially sanctioned by ubuntu?
[10:14] <topyli> budluva: in systems, things are correct or they are incorrect. "rules" come from that :)
[10:14] <budluva> Fabian, apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
[10:14] <freddy> s/old/all
[10:14] <budluva> Fabian, then try again
[10:15] <Fabian> budluva, however, totem still searches for libdvdcss
[10:15] <tiglionabbit> freddy: I believe they are working on that for breezy..
[10:15] <Fabian> budluva, still sais, I got the newest version
[10:15] <rob_> budluva,  someone sent me a link earlier, im talking bout the rules of irc server obviously >_>
[10:15] <zendak> budluva and tiglionabbit: reasons for the "rule" are given here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NewUsersNetworkGuidelines
[10:15] <rob_> there is it
[10:16] <freddy> i thought there was a way of adding like an image....while all that text goe
[10:16] <freddy> goes*
[10:17] <Fabian> budluva, and totem still searches for that libdvdcss
[10:17] <cee-jay> I see the Breezy warning on the screen...  that alone may answer my questions :)
[10:18] <eyequeue> okay, new kernel, brb
[10:18] <jtorq> freddy, http://www.bootsplash.org/
[10:18] <jeroen_> cee-jay, nah, Breezy's cool
[10:18] <budluva> Fabian, ok, explain what your problem is again, your trying to play a dvd in totem and it gives you an error that libdvdcss is not installed?
[10:18] <jeroen_> a lil' bit unstable
[10:18] <jtorq> I've never got it to work, but it looks interesting :)
[10:18] <Fabian> budluva, when trying to apt-get install libdvdcss, it sais that there is another package referencing it, or something
[10:18] <jtorq> I know SuSE uses it
[10:18] <jeroen_> cee-jay, when installed on a separate partition: no problem
[10:18] <cee-jay> it works for me except I can't mount my cdroms
[10:18] <freddy> jtorq, holy shiat thats what i want
[10:19] <cee-jay> any clues?
[10:19] <budluva> Fabian, apt-get install libdvdcss2
[10:19] <Fabian> budluva, it sais, that it can't read the DVD. and it sais, that it's probably, because I don't have libdvdcss
[10:19] <budluva> Fabian, your forgetting the 2 :P
[10:19] <Fabian> budluva, no, didn't forget the 2. tried both
[10:19] <budluva> and it wont install them because you already have it installed?
[10:19] <freddy> jtorq, suse, gentoo, well gentoo only when you boot from the livecd
[10:19] <freddy> mandrake
[10:19] <topyli> Fabian: you don't have the repository containing the libdvdcss package
[10:19] <Fabian> budluva, yes
[10:20] <topyli> Fabian: if that's what apt says
[10:20] <budluva> topyli, apparently he does
[10:20] <topyli> ah
[10:21] <tatiana> i have a friend on the fone who is trying to dialout on her modem, but never having owned a modem i'm not sure how to get her to do that after configuring everything in the networks area
[10:21] <topyli> so how come apt says "another package is referencing iit, or something"? that's what apt says when the package can't be found
[10:21] <budluva> Fabian, apt-cache search libdvdcss2
[10:21] <budluva> Fabian, what does it come up with?
[10:22] <freddy> woah modem, never configured one before
[10:22] <budluva> Fabian, if it comes up with nothing you don't have your repos setup correctly
[10:22] <Fabian> budluva, libdvdcss2 - a portable abstraction library for DVD decryption
[10:22] <tatiana> heh me either
[10:22] <budluva> k
[10:22] <tatiana> and it seems gnome-ppp is not on the ubuntu cd
[10:22] <tatiana> so bc shes on dialup i can't have her add a repository & go get wvdial or gnome-ppp either
[10:23] <freddy> apt-get install gnome-app?
[10:23] <freddy> ah shit
[10:23] <freddy> how
[10:23] <freddy> lol
[10:23] <budluva> Fabian, i would suggest removing then installing again
[10:23] <tatiana> ya
[10:23] <cee-jay> is this channel ok for newbie questions, or is the atmosphere more expert-oriented?
[10:23] <budluva> Fabian, apt-get remove libdvdcss2 && apt-get install libdvdcss2
[10:23] <freddy> cee-jay, shoot
[10:23] <freddy> tatiana, i really have no idea
[10:23] <tatiana> k this sucks heh
[10:23] <tatiana> erg me either :\
[10:23] <cee-jay> well, i've installed Breezy and I'm using it OK, but can't mount cdrom drives
[10:23] <freddy> :(
[10:23] <freddy> sorry
[10:24] <freddy> tatiana, ubuntuforums?
[10:24] <tatiana> i would of thought that in networks section would be a button to just dialout on
[10:24] <tatiana> but there isn't
[10:24] <freddy> lemme check a bit for ya
[10:24] <tatiana> k ty
[10:25] <cee-jay> obviously it installed from the CD, so I'm not sure why it doesn't like to mount one now.  Works ok on my windows partition
[10:25] <rob_> can anyone give me the command to install JRE? (Java Runtime Envrionment)
[10:25] <budluva> rob_, make sure you have the right repos and apt-get install sun-jre1.5
[10:26] <rob_> budluva, i added the extra from ubuntu guide will that do?
[10:26] <rob_> nope
[10:26] <rob_> budluva,  how do i add the right repo for that?
[10:26] <gpd> strange... I have sound from within chroot'd 32bit from flash but not from ogle / other dvd players?
[10:26] <cee-jay> i should mention that this is my first working linux install (non liveCD), so please be gentle (obvious).  OK...take your time.
[10:26] <Fabian> budluva, libdvdcss2 is not available, but is referenced by another package. this means, that it's too old, not available, or available through another source   <-- that's what apt-get install libdvdcss2 sais.... sorry for bad translation from german to english
[10:27] <freddy> tatiana, <----needs help....and cash to pay the phone call
[10:27] <rob_> lol
[10:27] <budluva> rob_, i'd tell you but its against the rules
[10:27] <rob_> lol
[10:27] <rob_> budluva,  dont be cross with me its not my rules :(
[10:28] <budluva> rob_, i pasted the link to Fabian before
[10:28] <tatiana> lol freddy
[10:28] <Fabian> budluva, what link?
[10:29] <budluva> Fabian, for extra repos
[10:30] <budluva> Fabian, as for you, i have no idea why apt won't install libdvdcss2
[10:30] <budluva> Fabian, post me your sources.list for me in #flood
[10:31] <eyequeue> does he have hoary-extras?
[10:31] <eyequeue> Filename: dists/hoary-extras/restricted/binary-i386/libdvdcss2_1.2.8-1~5.04ubp1_i386.deb
[10:32] <eyequeue> (and restricted, at that)
[10:33] <eyequeue> something like deb http://acm.cs.umn.edu/ubp hoary-extras main universe multiverse restricted
[10:33] <budluva> dunno, waiting for him to post his sources.list in #flood for me
[10:34] <Fabian> budluva, uhm... just saw, that somehow those extra urls were not in my sources.list, although I added them some weeks ago..... trying again now
[10:34] <budluva> Fabian, ok
[10:34] <Fabian> budluva, it has installed now, testing totem
[10:35] <Fabian> budluva, still not......
[10:35] <budluva> same error?
[10:35] <Fabian> yep
[10:35] <budluva> no libdvdcss installed?
[10:36] <budluva> Fabian, check your logs for totem
[10:37] <Fabian> budluva, where?
[10:37] <Fabian> budluva, because of the new sources, some 33 packages can be updated now. totem is one of them. trying this now

[10:38] <ubotu> chillywilly: I don't know
[10:38] <Fabian> budluva, in /var/log is no totem log
[10:39] <chillywilly> ubotu: that was my battle cry or something not a refernce to you ;)
[10:39] <ubotu> chillywilly: I don't know, could you explain it?
[10:39] <budluva> Fabian, what about /var/log/totem ?
[10:39] <chillywilly> ubotu: ah, you're a bot
[10:39] <ubotu> chillywilly: Are you smoking crack?
[10:39] <chillywilly> ubotu: are you?
[10:39] <ubotu> Wish i knew, chillywilly
[10:39] <Fabian> budluva, nope
[10:39] <moparfan90>  hello. does any one know a xbox live subsitution??????????
[10:39] <budluva> Fabian, did your update work
[10:39] <budluva> ?
[10:40] <Fabian> still updating. doing the whole lot
[10:40] <Heimdall> is there a resume function on x-chat fo sdcc download ?
[10:40] <Heimdall> xdcc*
[10:42] <Fabian> budluva, coming back in 10 minutes
[10:43] <rob_> Fabian, cya
[10:44] <jtan325_> does ubuntu use .xsession or .xinitrc?
[10:44] <nalioth_wrkn> unome you here?
[10:44] <unome> yes.
[10:44] <unome> thx for the notice.
[10:45] <rob_> Anyone know how to use  webcam with Gaim? I heard there was something like gaim_vv
[10:45] <cmatheson>  jtan325_ : if you're using gdm, it's the same as always, just choose the 'system default' or whatever it is and it will load from xsession
[10:45] <rob_> or gaim_w
[10:46] <seth_k> rob_, yeah, it's gaim_vv
[10:46] <rob_> so sudo apt-get install gaim_vv?
[10:47] <moparfan90> does anyone know a subsitution for xbox live?
[10:47] <rob_> no package :(
[10:47] <seth_k> there's no package for it, rob_
[10:47] <seth_k> yep
[10:47] <rob_> seth_k,  how do i install it then?
[10:48] <cmatheson> seth_k:  find it on the web, and then compile from source
[10:48] <jtan325_> cmatheson, so I put the line "gnome-settings-daemon" in my .xsession file
[10:48] <jtan325_> but nothing actually happens
[10:48] <freddy> i want a bootsplash :(
[10:48] <freddy> and this looks really hard
[10:48] <jtan325_> (after doing ctrl+alt+backspace)
[10:48] <cmatheson> jtan325_:  yeah, i have it in mine, just make sure to put '&' after it
[10:48] <seth_k> rob_, let me see if I can find a debian package for you and i'll backport it
[10:49] <rob_> kk ty
[10:49] <seth_k> rob_, or you can do as cmatheson suggested and compile from source (using checkinstall)
[10:49] <jtan325_> cmatheson, thanks, i restart X and see if this works
[10:50] <tatiana> freddy, closest thing i found was a how to on setting up um pppconfig
[10:50] <tatiana> which i'm tryin with her now
[10:50] <jtan325> cmatheson, still does not work
[10:51] <jtan325> "ctrl + alt+ backspace" should restart X right?
[10:51] <cmatheson> jtan325:  what happens?
[10:51] <LokeDK> great.. firefox just ruined all my bookmarks
[10:51] <memin> Has anyone configured a modem under ubuntu?
[10:51] <cmatheson> is your xsession executable?
[10:51] <jtan325> ahhh
[10:51] <jtan325> i'll try that
[10:51] <freddy> tatiana, i haven found anything
[10:51] <tatiana> figures
[10:52] <freddy> tatiana, sorry :(
[10:52] <benplaut> i hate it when that happens...
[10:53] <benplaut> 2 more...
[10:53] <jtan325_> cmatheson, still does  not seem to run gnome-settings daemon
[10:53] <jtan325_> "gnome-settings-daemon"
[10:53] <jtan325_> with the &
[10:53] <seth_k> rob_, the latest version is 1.2.0, and i can only find a source package. You're probably better off waiting for now.
[10:53] <jtan325_> in my .xsession file in ~, i made it executable
[10:53] <seth_k> http://gaim-vv.sf.net
[10:54] <cmatheson> jtan325_:  hmm, is it running the rest of your stuff?
[10:55] <gr0bi> hi, i'm not able to connect to a radio-stream via xmms! does someone have an idea why???
[10:55] <jtan325_> cmatheson, gnome-settings-daemon was the only thing i have in there
[10:55] <jtan325_> i'll try running firefox or something too then?
[10:56] <jtan325_> i.e. also put "mozilla-firefox &" in my .xsession?
[10:56] <tatiana> sigh
[10:56] <tatiana> ok this sucks heh
[10:56] <gr0bi> you want to start ff on startup?
[10:56] <Tomcat__> Just put it in sessions... :o
[10:57] <jtan325_> huh?
[10:57] <jtan325_> i want to run gnome-settings-daemon on startup
[10:57] <Tomcat__> System=>Preferences=>Sessions
[10:57] <gr0bi> system > preferences > session > startup > add > firefox
[10:57] <gr0bi> or mozilla-firefox
[10:57] <jtan325_> but i am using fluxbox, and the fluxbox docs say i should put startup programs in ".xsessions"
[10:57] <gr0bi> its the same
[10:58] <jtan325_> yeah it works when i use the default gnome WM, i.e. it starts firefox and thunderbird when i log oin
[10:58] <jtan325_> but with fluxbox, it doesn't seem to work
[10:58] <jtan325_> where is the "sessions" file
[10:58] <jtan325_> when you do System->preferecnes->sessions
[11:00] <AndyRR> anyone know how to get better print output in firefox?  im using a colour lj4500 ps printer
[11:00] <chez> a bit of a newb question coming up ...................... how do I change my gnome menus where all my application shortcuts are?
[11:00] <AndyRR> prints from other apps fin
[11:01] <gr0bi> chez, with smeg
[11:01] <chez> gr0bi: great I'll install that now
[11:01] <AndyRR> just in firefox the output is dire using gs to convert to ps level 2
[11:01] <Fabian> budluva, it works now! although it's not very good quality....
[11:01] <gr0bi> chez, just do it... it's a nice proggie :)
[11:01] <jtan325> gr0bi, do you know where the sessions file is?
[11:02] <budluva> Fabian, good to hear
[11:02] <jtan325> when you do it the gui-way through gnome?
[11:02] <chez> AndyRR: is it just because the sites you are trying to print are poorly formatted - intended for screen rather than print
[11:02] <cmatheson> jtan325_:  you'll need something more than that in there, one sec
[11:02] <budluva> Fabian, as for quality i can't help you there as i dont watch my dvds on my computer :P tis what i have my 51" for :P
[11:02] <AndyRR> chez, ubuntu pages
[11:02] <gr0bi> jtan325, no.. just did it via menu
[11:02] <Fabian> budluva, what about that bad quality? there are vertical lines, which apear, and it's not very fluid....
[11:02] <eyequeue> jtan325:  system > preferences > sessions
[11:03] <Fabian> budluva, too bad....
[11:03] <budluva> Fabian, what dvd?
[11:03] <chez> AndyRR: oh right I would have thought they would be okay .. w3c compliant and what-have-you. What's wrong with the print
[11:03] <Fabian> budluva, dirty dancing 2
[11:03] <AndyRR> layout is fine just there are extra tails and lines all over the place
[11:03] <Fabian> budluva, in windows it's working fine, superb quality
[11:03] <unome> AndyR try printing to a file then lpr <file>, see if there's any difference?
[11:04] <budluva> Fabian, have you tried watchin with something else?
[11:04] <Fabian> budluva, f.e.?
[11:04] <cee-jay> after logging-in to my unbuntu user account, I just get a plain brown desktop--no UI.  any clues?
[11:04] <cee-jay> worked this morning...
[11:05] <budluva> Fabian, what about xine?
[11:05] <cee-jay> no failsafe gnome either.
[11:05] <Fabian> isn't totem a frontend for xine?
[11:06] <chez> Where do I get smeg from if not synaptic?
[11:06] <lukus001> Can someone help me get my digital audio working on my Asus a8n-e sli deluxe motherboard
[11:06] <Fabian> budluva, isn't totem a frontend for xine?
[11:06] <thomerz> hi, when i want to choose an application to open a unkown file type, i get the message: cannot add the application to the application-database, anyone an idea?
[11:07] <Fabian> budluva, what package is xine? gnome-xine?
[11:07] <budluva> Fabian, eh sorry, xine-ui
[11:08] <budluva> Fabian, and yes your right, dont bother with xine
[11:08] <chez> Anyone: Where do I get smeg from if not synaptic?
[11:08] <unome> lukus001: alsamixer/ kmix, I would make sure all ouputs are checked
[11:08] <HaroldJohnson> This is so frustrating!
[11:08] <HaroldJohnson> I cannot get Ubuntu installed!
[11:08] <HaroldJohnson> Ahha
[11:08] <budluva> Fabian, try and find another media player that plays dvds and try it out
[11:08] <HaroldJohnson> Aargh!
[11:09] <cee-jay> how far have you got, harold?
[11:09] <HaroldJohnson> Oh, I'm sooooo close.
[11:09] <cee-jay> and what release?  5.04?
[11:09] <eyequeue> chez:  Filename: dists/hoary-backports/universe/binary-i386/smeg_0.7.4-0ubuntu1~5.04ubp1_all.deb
[11:09] <eyequeue>  (meaning add the backports repository)
[11:09] <HaroldJohnson> I'm nearly reading to abandon
[11:09] <HaroldJohnson> Warty
[11:09] <cee-jay> partition?
[11:09] <HaroldJohnson> on an OldWorld Powerbook
[11:09] <HaroldJohnson> Don't know
[11:09] <HaroldJohnson> I think ext3?
[11:09] <HaroldJohnson> Does that make sense?
[11:09] <lukus001> unome*: do i type that in terminal**?
[11:09] <thomerz> hi, when i want to choose an application to open a unkown file type, i get the message: cannot add the application to the application-database, anyone an idea?
[11:10] <chez> eyequeue: according to the starter guide though it should be available via apt-get but its not
[11:10] <cee-jay> yeah, i mean, are you dual booting?
[11:10] <unome> lukus001: yes after you print to a file say mozilla.ps
[11:10] <HaroldJohnson> Yes, using BootX
[11:10] <eyequeue> chez (meaning add the backports repository)
[11:10] <HaroldJohnson> Thanks, cee-jay
[11:10] <HaroldJohnson> Thanks for helping
[11:10] <cee-jay> i'll try.  i've only just installed breezy.
[11:10] <cee-jay> it's my first working linux install
[11:10] <chez> eyequeue: sorry can you explain how I can get at that (I'm a newb of a recently converted windoze user)
[11:10] <lukus001> unome: what do you mean exactly by print to a file?
[11:10] <HaroldJohnson> On a Mac/
[11:11] <HaroldJohnson> ?
[11:11] <HaroldJohnson> Congrats, BTW
[11:11] <eyequeue> chez:  let me grab you a couple of URLS
[11:11] <cee-jay> ok.  how far are you into the install?  thx
[11:11] <unome> lukus001: when you click print in firefox it will ask if you wanna print to the printer or to a file.
[11:11] <chez> eyequeue: cheers
[11:11] <HaroldJohnson> Well, I'm in the first stage of the intall.  I'm following the instructions on the wiki (for OldWorld Macs), but this one part gets so difficult to manage.
[11:12] <HaroldJohnson> It's this:
[11:12] <lukus001> unome: er how would that help audio :s
[11:12] <HaroldJohnson> Moving the installed kernel and ram disk image to the Mac HFS+ partition
[11:12] <Fabian> budluva, using xine now. nothing better.
[11:12] <unome> lukus001: sorry I mixed you with someone else, try alsamixer .. and make sure all outputs are checked
[11:12] <HaroldJohnson> That's the part that's killin' me
[11:12] <memin> Has anyone configured a modem under ubuntu?
[11:12] <unome> lukus001: it you are using KDE then kmix can do the trick
[11:13] <lukus001> unome: im on kmix at aving a little fiddle.. lol
[11:13] <cmatheson> jtan325:  did you figure that out?
[11:13] <lukus001> at the mo*
[11:13] <eyequeue> chez:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto and then http://backports.ubuntuforums.org/index.php?referrerid=7995
[11:13] <cee-jay> you've already successfully created a separate ext3 partition?
[11:13] <cmatheson> what happens when you start~does it just go back to the gdm login screen?
[11:13] <unome> lukus001: in the output TAB, check all green lights
[11:13] <HaroldJohnson> Yes, I have, and the swap
[11:13] <HaroldJohnson> I'm at the end of the first stage of the installation
[11:14] <lukus001> unome:yeah ive put them al on but no difference
[11:14] <eyequeue> chez:  if you still need help after that, feel free to msg me
[11:14] <jtorq> anybody have an idea why when I get a DHCP lease, I also gain _two_ routes?
[11:14] <chez> eyequeue: thanks alot bud
[11:14] <gbic> Is it possible for dd to backup the whole existing system and put it to an ISO? I want to make an image and put it to my external hd
[11:14] <eyequeue> chez:  np
[11:14] <cee-jay> you're booting from the cd or installing from an iso image?
[11:14] <HaroldJohnson> And I know I have to move the installed kernel and ram disk image over to the first (boot) partition, but I don't know how
[11:14] <unome> lukus001: in terminal type: ps aux | grep alsa
[11:14] <HaroldJohnson> Booting from the CD, usind BootX
[11:14] <unome> I mean esd sheesh
[11:15] <unome> lukus001: in terminal type: ps aux | grep esd
[11:15] <lukus001> okay done
[11:15] <unome> you see it?
[11:15] <freddy> i dont get it
[11:15] <cee-jay> ok, the easiest setup to me was to choose to reformat the ext3 part, bootable flag=yes make the mount point=/
[11:15] <lukus001> i got a bunch of number i dont know what they mean
[11:16] <freddy> if i have a pentium IV why do i have a 386 kernel?
[11:16] <freddy> is it slowing down my computer?
[11:16] <unome> lukus001: ok so kill it's pid and try your sound
[11:16] <freddy> i dont get it
[11:16] <cmatheson> freddy:  it doesn't matter
[11:16] <cmatheson> freddy:  if you're way concerned about it compile the 686 version
[11:16] <lukus001> unome: kill it?
[11:16] <unome> lukus001: are you on KDE?
[11:16] <freddy> no im not concerned...i just want to know if im taking full advantage of my computer cmatheson ?
[11:17] <lukus001> unome: not a clue - fresh install of horay 86 build
[11:17] <moparfan90_> does any here know a xbox live subsitution. like a hack or mod to play xbox live games online without xboxlive?
[11:17] <sproingie> freddy: the kernel doesn't really use any cpu-specific optimizations.  the compiler might just a bit, but you're talking tiny amounts
[11:17] <cmatheson> freddy:  from all the stats i've seen it really doesn't matter at all
[11:17] <sproingie> freddy: the system shouldnt be spending much time in the kernel anyway
[11:18] <gbic> what is the best backup manager for ubuntu?
[11:18] <flarfu> moparfan90_, xbconnect
[11:18] <freddy> oh so you guys have the 386 running?
[11:18] <pedingto> Hrm, I know this may sound a bit retarded, but is there something I have to set up to get sendmail working with php?
[11:18] <gbic> pedingto check your php.ini
[11:18] <freddy> cmatheson, sproingie ?
[11:18] <gbic> for the sendmail
[11:18] <moparfan90_> flarfu: do you use that?   and thanks.
[11:19] <gbic> ; For Unix only.  You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
[11:19] <gbic> ;sendmail_path =
[11:19] <unome> lukus001: when you openned kmix all output was on, or did you turn 3D on yourself?
[11:19] <lukus001> unome: a couple were off - i turnt them on
[11:19] <pedingto> Thanks, gbic.
[11:19] <gbic> np
[11:19] <unome> lukus001: ok, how's your sound now?
[11:20] <kolas> I have just converted a ntfs partition into ext3, what to change in /etc/fstab now to mount it ?
[11:20] <lukus001> unome: no sound...
[11:20] <flarfu> moparfan90_, i haven't used it.  but what it does is it tricks your xbox into thinking that your computer is another xbox.  your computer goes out and connects to other people running xbconnect
[11:20] <unome> lukus001: using some soundblaster card?
[11:20] <TimmyJ> when I run setup.sh in lirc I get a "dialog not found!" error, any ideas?
[11:20] <lukus001> built-in sound on asus a8n-e sli deluxe
[11:21] <moparfan90_> oo
[11:21] <moparfan90_> ok
[11:21] <flarfu> moparfan90_, so it's more like playing a lan game but with a really big lan
[11:21] <eyequeue> kolas:  like   /dev/hda11      /home           ext3    defaults        0       2
[11:22] <unome> lukus001: type: lspci .. do you see 'sound controler'?
[11:22] <unome> or sudi controler rather
[11:22] <unome> audio*
[11:22] <moparfan90_> oo
[11:22] <moparfan90_> i have a router will it work ?
[11:22] <grand_black_char> hi every body
[11:23] <grand_black_char> i've got a problem with sound configuration on my ubuntu
[11:23] <lukus001> unome: Multimedia audio controller is the nearest one to anythign sound related
[11:23] <flarfu> moparfan90_, i'm sure their site has all the info
[11:23] <moparfan90_> ok
[11:24] <HaroldJohnson> Well, thanks for your help, cee-jay.  Nalioth is going to help me further...
[11:24] <unome> lukus001: see if your chipset is here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsSoundCards
[11:24] <HaroldJohnson> ...thanks again!
[11:24] <cee-jay> ok, good luck
[11:24] <kolas> eyequeue: thanks!
[11:25] <lukus001> ok ill give it a look
[11:25] <D1> quick question, does ubuntu have a ncurses gui to load/unload modules like debian does? I cant remember the command for it.
[11:26] <freddy> i still dont get it
[11:26] <freddy> why this system uses a 386 kernel
[11:26] <freddy> if it isnt
[11:27] <eyequeue> kolas:  np
[11:27] <moparfan90_> can  xbconnect   play with xbox live people?
[11:27] <jtorq> freddy, 386 instructions are compatible with everything
[11:28] <jtorq> freddy, well, in that x86 realm
[11:31] <freddy> yes jtorq but is it diferent if i get a 686 kernel?
[11:31] <transgre1s> anyone have a suggestion on how to find my gateway address?
[11:31] <mrd`> ifconfig
[11:31] <mindspin> route
[11:31] <mrd`> Oh, wait, not ifconfig.
[11:32] <eyequeue> cat /etc/network/interfaces
[11:32] <mindspin> route
[11:32] <mrd`> route is it
[11:32] <mindspin> if you wann add a new one as default gatewy add
[11:33] <mindspin> su route add default gw ip
[11:33] <mindspin> ip means ip address of the new default gw
[11:33] <DeCaoS> why i have this error:  W: GPG error: http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release: Unknown error executing gpgv
[11:34] <jtorq> freddy, they're just minor optimisations
[11:34] <jtorq> freddy, you'd find around a 4% query speed increase by using 686 instead
[11:34] <grey_gandalf> in the live cd, what is the root password ?
[11:34] <grey_gandalf> I wanted to use the livecd to check/format my HD
[11:34] <mindspin> freddy if you wanna play with compiler and kernels, why not using gentoo ?
[11:34] <jtorq> grey_gandalf, use sudo
[11:35] <grey_gandalf> what is avaiable? cfdisk?
[11:36] <jtorq> grey_gandalf, yep, cfdisk is there
[11:36] <eyequeue> fsck cfdisk and mkfs should be
[11:36] <grey_gandalf> the powerbook has a broken backlight illumination oso it needs something simple or I can't read it :)
[11:36] <grey_gandalf> ok, perfect
[11:36] <jtorq> freddy, just `apt-get install linux-image-2.6.10-5-686` if it's a problem
[11:37] <DeCaoS> W: GPG error: http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release: Unknown error executing gpgv ?? why i have this problem :$
[11:37] <freddy> mindspin, hmm why you tell users to use gentoo? it is a normal question..why do i have a kernel that doesnt match my arquitechture
[11:38] <mindspin> it was just a hint
[11:38] <eyequeue> freddy:  actually it does match your archetecture, in "lowest common denominator" sense of matching
[11:39] <jtorq> freddy, it's a broad kernel image that will work on all systems
[11:39] <jtorq> freddy, otherwise, you'd have to do something like download Ubuntu-686 or Ubuntu-k7 instead of just the broad one
[11:40] <freddy> oh now i understand
[11:40] <freddy> thanks jtorq
[11:40] <jtorq> no problem, freddy
[11:41] <freddy> to work from 386 and latest systems
[11:41] <HWolf> Does anyone here know anything about serial ports and how to configure them?
[11:43] <transgress> okay i set up my connection to be static with the network settings tool in gnome, but is it gonna revert to dhcp when i reboot?
[11:44] <hooligan> hi
[11:44] <transgress> hi
[11:44] <mwe> hey
[11:45] <we2by> I'm trying to burn a dvd iamge to a dvd using gnomebaker, but this damn thing is telling me /media/cdorm1 is not mounted
[11:45] <we2by> image*
[11:46] <unome> try mount /media/cdrom1
[11:46] <hooligan> To order ubuntus CD i have to talk with who?
[11:46] <we2by> uniq, wrong media type
[11:46] <nalioth> we2by: if u r burning an image TO the cd, mounting shouldnt be necessary
[11:46] <mwe> you cant mount a blank cd afaik
[11:46] <freddy> with the website
[11:46] <transgress> you go to the site
[11:47] <transgress> http://shipit.ubuntulinux.org/
[11:47] <mwe> then wait a few months
[11:47] <we2by> nalioth, then why the heck gnomebaker tells me so?
[11:47] <we2by> :(
[11:47] <nalioth> we2by: if you are burning a dvd iso image all you should need is a blank disk
[11:47] <nalioth> we2by: i prefer k3b
[11:48] <mwe> me too
[11:48] <we2by> but I use gnome
[11:48] <chrissturm> we2by: you can use k3b in gnome
[11:48] <mwe> I wonder why it tells him /media/cdrom1 isn't mounted. I thought it wasn't supposed to be mounted
[11:49] <hooligan> but it want to order like 300cds for a linux install fest that im organizing here at my university in brazil
[11:49] <hooligan> is that possible?
[11:49] <we2by> I ordered a ubuntu cd a few months ago, still waiting for it to arive
[11:50] <Burgundavia> hooligan, you need to talk to mako
[11:50] <Burgundavia> hooligan, if you speak to him directly, you have a better chance of getting them
[11:50] <eyequeue> hooligan:  the shipit site should have info, i think .br was one of the countries entioned (some charge if the volume is high, customs or something)
[11:50] <hooligan> how can i speak to him?
[11:51] <eyequeue> hooligan:  note that it's the country that is charging, not ubuntu :)
[11:51] <Burgundavia> hooligan, ping him, nick is mako
[11:51] <topyli> hooligan: 300 cds. i'd like to attend your installfests!
[11:51] <hooligan> topyli
[11:52] <hooligan> can u send me those 300 cds?
[11:52] <topyli> me? no. mako is the man
[11:52] <hooligan> ah ok
[11:52] <lsuactiafner> i want cds for new release
[11:52] <lsuactiafner> dont want to downlaod it
[11:52] <lsuactiafner> but.. cds take about 2 months
[11:52] <hooligan> the linux installfest is in september
[11:53] <lsuactiafner> by that time ive downloaded it on a dialup @ 3k/s
[11:53] <hooligan> mako
[11:53] <we2by> I think it takes more than 2 months
[11:53] <we2by> I have waited more than 3 months maybe, still no cd
[11:53] <mirak> hello
[11:54] <mirak> I burned a DVDrom with the VIDEO_TS folder and stuffs, but xine or vlc can't read it
[11:54] <topyli> hooligan: if you state you business, they can probably hurry your cds to you
[11:54] <mirak> libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.8 for DVD access
[11:54] <mirak> libdvdread: Attempting to use device /dev/hda6 mounted on / for CSS authentication
[11:54] <lsuactiafner> i got my cds from netherlands. parents were like WHAT DID YOU GET FROM netherlands
[11:54] <mirak> probleme is that my dvdrom is of course not /dev/hda6
[11:54] <eyequeue> lsuactiafner:  geekpron :)
[11:54] <mirak> and that it wasn't crypted with css since it's a VHS rip
[11:55] <lsuactiafner> yeh lol
[11:55] <mwe> heh
[11:55] <hooligan> topyli: yep i would do that, its for the university, my ideia is to convert all people to use linux
[11:55] <brittle> mirak: just change the path in vlc
[11:55] <topyli> hooligan: sounds like a plan :)
[11:55] <mirak> brittle: how ?
[11:55] <mirak> I use xine dvd:// to run it.
[11:55] <mirak> it works with aliens dvd
[11:55] <hooligan> and i found ubuntu very similar to what people are used to use
[11:56] <mirak> I used nautilus to burn it, maybe it's not good ?
[11:57] <BluesRocker> can someone help mi to install modem driver, please?
[11:57] <topyli> hooligan: so there :)
[11:58] <airmikey> anyone running pekwm window manager ?
[11:58] <eyequeue> hooligan:  one point too for you, when you talk to mako, let him know what the dates of the installfest are, then you won't need to wait for the routine shipping
[11:59] <cheezee> anybody know what the kernel will be in Breezy Release?? (my english bad.. sorry)
[11:59] <hooligan> eyequeue: ok, thanks all for helping
[11:59] <Burgundavia> cheezee, probably .12
