[08:34] <eclypse> courtlandj what is it?
[08:34] <RezDawg> Can anyone help me please, Im running Breezy badger, I used to have a nvidia card and now I installed an ATI card and xserver isnt working and when I boot and get comandline only. Im not to great with linux so I dont know how to get the GUI up and running
[08:34] <sewoyl> a_l_e_ sorry I really dontknow
[08:34] <a_l_e_> sewoyl: np
[08:34] <Jowi> a_l_e_: you are probably not having the correct entry in grub
[08:35] <FX2> NoUse: its an asus p5rd1-v deluxe
[08:35] <NoUse> FX2 have you tried hitting Ctrl+C has the hotplug line displays?
[08:35] <FX2> NoUse socket lga 775
[08:35] <eclypse> rezdawk try startx
[08:35] <eclypse> rezdawg*
[08:35] <Courtlandj> eclypse: If it's not finding any screens, then my first guess is something wrong in xorg.conf or with the driver.
[08:35] <sewoyl> aaaaargh my download stalled ...
[08:35] <FX2> NoUse yep tried it. nothing happanes
[08:36] <eclypse> I would assume its in my xorg.conf
[08:36] <eclypse> what shall I do?
[08:36] <Courtlandj> eclypse: But if you've had the driver working before, then I am not sure what it could be in xorg.conf
[08:36] <Jowi> a_l_e_: for example. "root (hd0,4)" should have the corresponding "root=/dev/hda5" in the list
[08:36] <Courtlandj> Sooo....
[08:36] <bcl> RezDawg, check /etc/X11/xorg.conf to see what driver it is using.
[08:36] <RezDawg> eclypse: i get a xserver error when I boot and gives me the error message and then goes to commandline
[08:36] <a_l_e_> i try to redefine the root=/dev/sda to root=8:4... maybe it's this... see you later (after a reboot!)
[08:36] <javaTard> For a server I am setting up, is there enough support "software wise" for the AMD64 version? I know in my 64bit desktop version I have to "tweak" to make 32 bit work with the 64 bit OS
[08:36] <eclypse> post the error message on ubuntuforums.org
[08:36] <eclypse> someone there will know.
[08:36] <NoUse> FX2 have you tried dapper?
[08:37] <Jowi> a_l_e_: for example. "root (hd0,4)" should have the corresponding "root=/dev/hda5" in the list
[08:37] <FX2> NoUse i dont have it now
[08:37] <Jowi> oops
[08:37] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Have you tried the steps listed in: http://www.compiz.net/viewtopic.php?id=205
[08:37] <RezDawg> dcl: i had nvidia drivers before, is there a way the go to generic drviers and then install ati drivers
[08:37] <eclypse> yes
[08:37] <bcl> RezDawg, look at /var/log/X?? for the output of X (I'm not sure of the exact location under ubuntu)
[08:37] <eclypse> those were the exact steps I followed actually.
[08:37] <eclypse> I did the other oens on the ubuntu forums before to
[08:37] <eclypse> neither worked.
[08:37] <j3g> anyone know when the next version of ubuntu is due?
[08:37] <eclypse> fresh installs and everything
[08:38] <bcl> RezDawg, with my ATI Radeon card the radeon driver from Xorg works fine.
[08:38] <NoUse> FX2 when you start the install CD, look at the some of its boot options.  You might be able to disable some autodetect options that are causing problems
[08:38] <bcl> RezDawg, hmm, so did you do a new install or just swap cards?
[08:38] <sskk> When I in dapper instructs the GDM to log in a specific user automatically, the password of that user still has to type his password before Gnome starts up - how can I remove this password control, and just launch the specified users desktop right away?
[08:38] <Madpilot> j3g, not until October, probably - the new version was only just released on June 1st
[08:38] <RezDawg> bcl: i swapped cards
[08:38] <Sashi> how do i start SQL
[08:39] <ThePub> RezDawg:  if it's a new card you'll need to setup a new driver.  "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and run through xserver setup should do it
[08:39] <buzzed> what is the best player for playing .mov... totem has static for sound
[08:39] <Courtlandj> eclypse: I wouldn't know any more than the people who wrote those howto's then, sorry. Best bet would be to inquire in those threads I guess.
[08:39] <bcl> RezDawg, ok, there's a way to rerun the video setup. But I'm not on my ubuntu box at the moment.
[08:39] <eclypse> *sigh*
[08:39] <NoUse> Sashi if its mysql, sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart
[08:39] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Dapper seems to be probably the easiest way to get an Xgl setup up and running, so if that's not working for you, you must have an unusual problem?
[08:39] <j3g> Madpilot: it is said that the next version will support installing on dmraid (fake raid) disks... i don't want to try to install 6.06 as it doesn't have that support
[08:40] <Madpilot> j3g, fair enough - what the next version will support is anyone's guess, though - development has barely begun
[08:40] <eclypse> yes
[08:40] <eclypse> I'm running dapper
[08:40] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Actually...
[08:40] <inono> How do I give myself write access to /usr/local
[08:40] <eclypse> the main reason I was going for XGL is... because its a constant opengl environment and it would give me better performance in gnome.
[08:40] <[sam] > anyone knows how to write to a "read only filesystem"
[08:40] <RezDawg> ThePub: thanks ill try that
[08:40] <s0nix> anyone here use a laptop with a modem 56k Conexant.... i need some help :|
[08:40] <NoUse> inono you don't, use sudo when copying stuff there
[08:40] <RezDawg> bcl: thanks for your help
[08:40] <inono> NoUse, hmm
[08:40] <gnomefreak> [sam] : ntfs?
[08:40] <[sam] > gnomefreak, usb flash drive
[08:40] <ThePub> RezDawg:  np.. make sure you backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf first though
[08:41] <Courtlandj> eclypse: That URL was for kubuntu, not standard Gnome + ATI...  Perhaps look at http://www.compiz.net/viewtopic.php?id=389
[08:41] <Sashi> hmm
[08:41] <NoUse> [sam]  what kind of file system is it?
[08:41] <Sashi> proftp is started...
[08:41] <Jowi> eclypse: did you have a look at that bug-posting i gave you? seems to be a prob with xgl with some ati cards in resolutions higher than 1024x768.
[08:41] <[sam] > gnome, I couldn't write files to this drive
[08:41] <Sashi> but i still cant connect
[08:41] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Perhaps there is some small but vital difference between the two howtos.
[08:41] <RezDawg> part
[08:41] <[sam] > nouse, I think it's FAT
[08:41] <eclypse> yes
[08:41] <eclypse> and it said something about allowing large textures
[08:41] <[sam] > it says read only, when i tried to chmod it, it doesn't let me
[08:41] <igorzolnikov> hi! how i can install opengl?
[08:41] <NoUse> [sam]  check the output of 'mount' and see if its mounted ro or rw
[08:42] <eclypse> I followed 2 different ones regarding to ATI
[08:42] <gnomefreak> [sam] : mount it with sudo or see if you can't change ther permissions  my usb drive mopunts with usr previledges
[08:42] <igorzolnikov>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY kFnbyf
[08:42] <eclypse> I'm sure this isant just a stupidity issue. but rather, a crazy deep problem.
[08:42] <Jowi> igorzolnikov: you probably would want to change that password now :)
[08:42] <Courtlandj> eclypse: I'm willing to agree.  =/
[08:42] <gnomefreak> igorzolnikov: might be better if you did that in your server tab
[08:42] <[sam] > it says owner can view content, others are forbidden
[08:42] <igorzolnikov> i know ))))
[08:43] <igorzolnikov> how i can do it?
[08:43] <NoUse> igorzolnikov opengl is already installed, what are you trying to do?
[08:43] <eclypse> lol
[08:43] <eclypse> I'm sure its a resolution issue
[08:43] <eclypse> this laptop runs at 1280x800
[08:43] <eclypse> but, going lower isant an option unless I want my screen to look lik eshit
[08:43] <eclypse> like shit*
[08:44] <ThePub> can't get the right res?
[08:44] <[sam] > gnomefreak, how do i mount with sudo
[08:44] <Jowi> eclypse: yep. totally agree. 1024x768 look like crap on LCD if it is not native res.
[08:44] <eclypse> if I go lower then native well..most people know what it looks like lol
[08:44] <[sam] > gnomefreak, i'm logged in as root right now
[08:44] <ThePub> like most lcd's.. all funky blocky :D
[08:44] <Courtlandj> eclypse: If it's to do with an ATI card on a laptop (which there are many) then surely you're not alone in this problem. Probably just a matter of time until someone finds a fix or a workaround.
[08:44] <igorzolnikov> i installed xtraceroute and run... result -> xtraceroute
[08:44] <igorzolnikov> OpenGL not supported
[08:45] <igorzolnikov> how can i change password here?
[08:45] <Courtlandj> eclypse: You may have luck searching for your laptop model and/or the ATI card model...   Wish I could help more.
[08:45] <gnomefreak> igorzolnikov: i dont think you can i think staff has to (for freenode)
[08:45] <NoUse> !tell igorzolnikov about irc
[08:45] <Courtlandj> I tried setting up Xgl under Debian Etch and it was a fricking nightmare.
[08:45] <Jowi> igorzolnikov: if your video driver is support opengl+dri and is correctly installed then it will work. what videocard do you have?
[08:45] <Courtlandj> I wanted it sooooo bad.
[08:46] <gnomefreak> [sam] : not sure ive never had to mount anything ever :(
[08:46] <NoUse> igorzolnikov did you compile xtraceroute?
[08:46] <eclypse> hmm
[08:46] <igorzolnikov> geforce 6200
[08:46] <eclypse> where shall I search?
[08:46] <pradeep> anyone seen the new usplash for edgy?
[08:46] <gnomefreak> pradeep: #ubuntu+1
[08:46] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Try google (of course) ubuntuforums.org and linuxquestions.org
[08:46] <Jowi> igorzolnikov: follow the nvidia how-to
[08:46] <pradeep> gnomefreak, the place is dead :(
[08:46] <Courtlandj> eclypse: and compiz.net's forums
[08:46] <Jowi> ubotu: tell igorzolnikov about nvidia
[08:46] <igorzolnikov> xtracerout... i installed Add/Remove...
[08:46] <phrowzen> does anyone know why i lost the options (when i right click something) to move to another workstation, etc etc? all i see is: minimize/maximize/on top/move/resize/close
[08:47] <igorzolnikov> iknow... but... Identifier      "NVIDIA Corporation NV40? [Unknown nVidia Card] "
[08:47] <Courtlandj> eclypse: compiz.net should be chock-full of people going through the same hell you are right now.  =)
[08:47] <sewoyl> phrowzen, probably 'too confusing for the user'
[08:47] <sewoyl> oops sorry
[08:47] <phrowzen> sewoyl, ? as in, that wasnt directed towards me?
[08:48] <[sam] > still can't change the permission!
[08:48] <RezDawg> ThePub: thanks again, im now in ubuntu and its running fine the reconfigure command didthe trick
[08:48] <sewoyl> phrowzen, no, directed at the gnome team (although I love gnome :))
[08:48] <Tommy2k4> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=153112 would that work on dapper?
[08:48] <NoUse> igorzolnikov you probably need to install the nvidia drivers
[08:49] <phrowzen> sewoyl, oh, ic, hmm, well iirc it only started since my update yesterday, so thats possible... kind of makes me sad though :(
[08:49] <NoUse> !tell igorzolnikov about nvidia
[08:49] <Sashi> yo
[08:49] <Sashi> what port
[08:49] <Sashi> is samba on
[08:49] <Sashi> and how do i add a user
[08:49] <Sashi> for it
[08:49] <eclypse> courtlandj, thanks for the attemption to help
[08:49] <NoUse> !tell Sashi about samba
[08:49] <igorzolnikov> i know... i tried... but x don't start...
[08:49] <NoUse> Sashi port 139
[08:49] <NoUse> igorzolnikov then you probably missed a step
[08:50] <Sashi> thx
[08:50] <ThePub> RezDawg:  good to hear :)  you can use reconfigure on any install package you can find with "dpkg -l" just so you know.
[08:50] <sewoyl> phrowzen, I havent used he new ubuntu yet (dow nlaodin progress)so I dont know but it would be great if for each option they disable they added a gconf key for re-enabling it ...
[08:50] <ThePub> RezDawg:  "update-alternatives" is another command worth looking into.
[08:50] <lanlan> need help with beagle on ubuntu 6.06 LTS, can't get it to index files
[08:50] <lanlan> cant some one help?
[08:50] <lanlan> can
[08:50] <sip> canal de ubuntu espaol?
[08:51] <phrowzen> sewoyl, it may very well be in there ;) i just dont know where to look
[08:51] <apokryphos> !es
[08:51] <NoUse> !es
[08:51] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, alli obtendran mas ayuda.
[08:51] <jtj> i've downloaded easy, the first time i went to install it froze so i closed the window, now ehn i try to install again i get E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' tpo crrect the problem, but that command isnt accepted by the terminal, could someone suggest what i need to do please
[08:51] <RezDawg> ThePub, i have to invest more time into linux, but obilvion is ruling my life right now
[08:51] <sip> #ubuntu es
[08:51] <sip> #ubuntu - es
[08:51] <NoUse> jtj define "not accepted"
[08:51] <theine> jtj: Try "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[08:52] <sewoyl> sip, type in /join #ubuntu-es
[08:52] <Sashi> umm
[08:52] <Sashi> ok
[08:52] <Sashi> how do i share files
[08:52] <Sashi> between a linux box and a windows box
[08:52] <Courtlandj> Sashi: samba!
[08:52] <Sashi> yea i know
[08:52] <Sashi> but where do i put the files in
[08:53] <lanlan> i need help with beagle, can anyone help?
[08:53] <Courtlandj> Sashi: You will need to have encrypted passwords.
[08:53] <Sashi> eh?
[08:53] <Courtlandj> Sashi: Windows really only plays nice if you have set up a samba password.
[08:53] <jtj> nouse yeah its stalled again on flashplugin-free, its the same as froze when i did automatically
[08:54] <theine> Sashi: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SettingUpSamba
[08:54] <NoUse> jtj but "sudo dpkg --configure -a" should fix that
[08:54] <Sashi> erm i want to share a file on the linux box
[08:54] <Sashi> to the windows
[08:54] <graveson> how can i access a pc that is connected to totally different windows domain and my ubuntu desktop has no domain
[08:54] <theine> jtj: From where is trying to download the package?
[08:54] <jtj> nouse it asked me for sudo and i entered tht, its the flashplugin-nonfree which is blocking everything
[08:54] <kwilliams> gnomefreak: I burned a new server CD for the partman issue...It's still happenening.  I tried expert mode, and it crashes when trying to detect the drives, the last command line is "partman: Reading all physical volumes.  This may take a while."  It's been over 5 minutes now...
[08:55] <jtj> theine, nouse its easyubuntu
[08:55] <gnomefreak> kwilliams: maybe a drive issue
[08:55] <eclypse> anyone know what this Fatal server error: Unrecognized option: vt7 is?
[08:55] <Courtlandj> graveson: You should be able to connect via IP address. From windows, \\<IP_ADDRESS> or whatever.
[08:55] <theine> jtj: yes, but what do you mean it's stalled? what's the last in the terminal output saying?
[08:55] <Courtlandj> For linux, I think it would be smb://<IP_ADDRESS> or so forth.
[08:55] <jtj> nouse, theine but i think its downloaded the tar and is trying to int
[08:55] <stuNNed> so if i `apt-get build-dep gnomad2` and then i want to install gnomad2 latest how do i do that with apt?
[08:56] <kwilliams> gnomefreak: OK.  I had gentoo installed.  It runs just fine.  I also tried the Ubuntu desktop CD...and it loaded to the desktop and showed me the hard drive data...
[08:56] <jtj> stall fromt here and it says setting up flashplugin-nonfree
[08:56] <a_l_e_> ... no chance :-(
[08:56] <theine> jtj: could you please paste the terminal output at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:56] <jtj> sorry about the plit typing
[08:56] <Sashi> hmm
[08:56] <lanlan> beagle dosen't index files, can someone help?
[08:56] <Sashi> weird
[08:56] <Sashi> my samba conf
[08:56] <Sashi> doesnt have a file sharing section
[08:56] <theine> jtj: ah, ok, have you tried to install flashplugin-nonfree manually with apt-get?
[08:57] <Jowi> a_l_e_: just left to soon. what is the exact /dev/ path for the ubs-key?
[08:57] <graveson> courtlandj: i cannot even ping the windows system which is connected the domain
[08:57] <jtj> theine i cant recall doing so, but this week i could, have done anything, ill check to see if its already installed in synaptics?
[08:58] <stuNNed> if i apt-get build-dep package how do install the package i'm building for w/apt from command line because this feature is not supported withthe frontend yet
[08:58] <theine> jtj: Open a terminal and do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" and see what you get
[08:58] <Courtlandj> graveson: Then it's on a different network, behind a router or firewall or something? You'd need to be on the same domain, or have a way set up to tunnel to it.
[08:59] <[sam] > anyone knows how to mount a usb flash drive?
[08:59] <a_l_e_> Jowi: it's a usb disk... /dev/sda; root is on /dev/sda4
[08:59] <graveson> courtlandj: thanks
[08:59] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Should just plug it in...   does that not work?
[08:59] <edlang> hmm
[08:59] <[sam] > courtland, it was mounted automatically, but I couldn't write anything to it
[09:00] <stuNNed> so i apt-get build-src package how do i install the binary w/apt-get because the frontend doesn't support this yet
[09:00] <edlang> I'm still having no luck compiling wine on amd64. How do I force it to be a 32 bit compile?
[09:00] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Strange. Can you read files from it?
[09:00] <[sam] > I'm wondering if there is a way to mount it as read & write
[09:00] <kwilliams> Does anyone know why Partman would crash during an install, or can help me troubleshoot this issue?
[09:00] <jtj> theine ok well it says already newest  version and has once again stopped at setting up flashplugin-nonfree
[09:00] <Jowi> a_l_e_: how many harddisks do you have connected?
[09:00] <[sam] > yea, i can read, but when i write it, it gives me an error says read only file system
[09:00] <theine> jtj: what's the newest version?
[09:00] <Sashi> umm
[09:00] <Sashi> woot?
[09:00] <Sashi> i got my windows box to be able to connect to samba server on this linux box
[09:00] <Sashi> but..
[09:01] <theine> jtj: ah, ok, neverminf
[09:01] <jtj> theine sorry it says flashplugin-nonfree
[09:01] <Sashi> how can i share the files
[09:01] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Some memory sticks have switches that make them read-only. Does yours have one?
[09:01] <EmilyN> [sam] : does your flash drive have any kind of "lock" mode? like the way an mp3 player sometimes has a lock mode. when the lock mode is on, it will only mount as read
[09:01] <theine> jtj: so can you paste the terminal output now?
[09:01] <[sam] > it's a flash drive, no, it doesn't have it
[09:01] <jtj> theine will do but i didnt cos we were doing that, sec
[09:01] <EmilyN> *high five* Courtlandj
[09:01] <mneptok> [sam] : what does ls -la on the mount point tell you?
[09:01] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Okay, what does `mount` give you on the command line?
[09:02] <Bassetts> is it possible to make a .sh that runs irssi, joins a server, joins a channel and continues to run when i close my terminal?
[09:02] <mneptok> Bassetts: you want "screen"
[09:02] <[sam] > Courtlandj, rw,umask=000
[09:02] <Jowi> a_l_e_: how many harddisks do you have connected? <--- important in order to know how to mount the usb
[09:02] <Gullstad> Were is the xorg.conf?
[09:02] <Bassetts> mneptok: how does that work?
[09:02] <Jowi> a_l_e_: if you have only 1 harddisk then "root (hd1,3)" and for the kernel option "root=/dev/sda4"
[09:02] <a_l_e_> Jowi: 1 external
[09:02] <[sam] > courtlandj, /dev/sda1 on /mnt/sda1 type vfat (rw,umask=000)
[09:02] <Jowi> a_l_e_: how many internal?
[09:02] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Not sure then if the machine thinks it's mounted as read-write.
[09:03] <mneptok> Bassetts: screen creates a virtual TTY that is not connected to a specific login session, allowing apps run in screen to run even when you log out
[09:03] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Maybe you don't have permissions? I can't imagine why that would be, if it's vfat...
[09:03] <a_l_e_> Jowi: i think that the most important informations are about the support for booting on external disk in the kernel and how to check for it
[09:03] <Bassetts> mneptok, so what would i enter into the sh?
[09:03] <a_l_e_> Jowi: i'm on ppc... so no grub but yaboot
[09:03] <[sam] > Courtlandj, I booted from liveCD and logged in as root
[09:03] <mneptok> Bassetts: there's no shell script necessary
[09:03] <Jowi> a_l_e_: if the BIOS can see your external disk then it should work.
[09:04] <a_l_e_> Jowi: most of the things are the same, but all of them
[09:04] <Bassetts> mneptok: so id type, screen irssi??
[09:04] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Could it be that the device is full?
[09:04] <mneptok> Bassetts: correct
[09:04] <Bassetts> mneptok: do what i need in irssi then close terminal?
[09:04] <jtj> theine ok the sudo apt-get terminal is at 15876
[09:04] <mneptok> Bassetts: and irssi can be configured to auto-connect to servers and auto-join channels
[09:04] <Bassetts> mneptok: then it will run until the machine is shutdown?
[09:04] <mneptok> Bassetts: or until you /quit irssi
[09:04] <Jowi> a_l_e_: that make it harder. never tried yaboot
[09:04] <[sam] > courtlandj, I could not delete files, but i moved it to trash can
[09:04] <valehru> hmm...how come every time I change my disk to mount from /tmp/disks-conf-sdb1 to /media/backup/ every time that I reboot the machine it reverts back to the original ubuntu path: /tmp/disks-conf-sdb1
[09:04] <Gullstad> Were is the xorg.conf?
[09:04] <mastastealth> !flash
[09:04] <ubotu> Installation & troubleshooting for Flash is covered in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[09:04] <a_l_e_> Jowi: the bios (ok, it's not a bios... openfirmware here) sees the disk and boots from there. but then yaboot (the grub) doesn't succeed in loading the kernel
[09:05] <[sam] > courtlandj, so now it lets me delete files
[09:05] <Gullstad> !xorg.conf
[09:05] <mneptok> Gullstad: "locate xorg.conf
[09:05] <mneptok> "
[09:05] <ubotu> My cat's name is Mittens! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, Gullstad
[09:05] <valehru> Gullstad, /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:05] <[sam] > courtlandj, i'm gonna try adding files to the disk now
[09:05] <a_l_e_> Jowi: so my question is more: how can i check if the support for booting on usb is enable.
[09:05] <Gullstad> valehru: Thanks
[09:05] <valehru> np
[09:05] <ic56> Valehru: it's because your /etc/fstab which carries the state between reboots, tells Ubuntu to do so.
[09:05] <Bassetts> mneptok: ok, im doing this to run irssi to log a channel over ssh, what would i do if i wanted to open irssi again in my ssh session?
[09:05] <theine> jtj: sec...
[09:05] <valehru> ic hmm....but the
[09:05] <mneptok> Bassetts: reconnect to the machine, then "screen -r"
[09:05] <jtj> theine sure, at your lesisure, thanks for the help
[09:06] <Courtlandj> [sam] : Okay, hope the problem clears up for you. Never heard of root not being able to write to a device that was mounted rw.
[09:06] <Jowi> a_l_e_: then, theoreticly, it should work fine. i don't know what is enabled or not in the ppc kernel. sorry
[09:06] <Bassetts> mneptok: seems screen isnt installed on the server =(
[09:06] <Courtlandj> (That wasn't ntfs, hehe)
[09:06] <mneptok> Bassetts: so install it :)
[09:06] <valehru> ic56, I thought that gksu disks-admin edits the fstab file though
[09:06] <a_l_e_> Jowi: ok, thanks for caring! :-)
[09:06] <mastastealth> does any1 know that command to enable flash after an apt-get of the plugin?
[09:06] <Bassetts> mneptok: im not allowed apt-get use on the server, it isnt mine
[09:07] <theine> jtj: hmmm, so it just hangs... try "sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugiin-nonfree && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree"
[09:07] <mneptok> Bassetts: you can still install it in your ~/, and add the location to your $PATH
[09:07] <valehru> there is no mention of that drive in the fstab file though
[09:07] <ic56> valehru: I'm not familiar with disks-admin.  Read /etc/fstab and discover for yourself whether disks-admin correctly changed it or not.
[09:07] <[sam] > courtland, when i try to paste a file to the usb drive, it tells me"writing to devices is not supported"
[09:07] <Bassetts> mneptok: =S ok, how do i do that, bit noob here
[09:07] <mneptok> Bassetts: or ask the admin to install it
[09:07] <valehru> no its not in it
[09:07] <theine> jtj: sorry, "sudo apt-get remove --purge flashplugin-nonfree && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree"
[09:08] <ic56> valehru: point your browser to<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Page down to "Instructions", and read till the next blank line.  Follow the instructions to save and run the file.  It will setup your /etc/fstab and mountpoints in /media so you can see your NTFS filesystems in Places> Computer.
[09:08] <valehru> however how is ubuntu defining the path /tmp/disks-conf-sdb1/ then if its not in fstab?
[09:08] <ic56> valehru: The script will ask you if you want to enable NTFS write.  Answer no.  If you already tried unsuccessfully to add your Windows filesystems to /etc/fstab , add a -b flag to the script invocation.  I authored this version, so I can help if anything goes wrong.
[09:08] <Bassetts> mneptok: for me to install would i have to get screen from the internet on this pc, then upload to the server and install?
[09:08] <Jowi> a_l_e_: the option should be listed in /boot/config-ppcnumbergoeshere (you can "cat" it) but I have no idea what to look for
[09:08] <[sam] > the disk is not full, it still has about 120 left
[09:08] <[sam] > 120mb
[09:08] <mneptok> Bassetts: /query window, please
[09:08] <valehru> ic56, my disk is ext3 not ntfs
[09:08] <Courtlandj> [sam] : What happens if you try it from the terminal?  I thought /tmp/disks* were used by the installer for NTFS.  I don't have dapper...  Ok.  I don't know of a script to do the job for native filesystems, but I'm surprised.  How did you create those filesystems?
[09:10] <[sam] > courtlandj, cp: cannot create regular file 'file name' : read-only file system
[09:10] <^richiefrich> what card ?
[09:10] <eclypse> Mobility X300 PCI-E
[09:10] <jtj> theine no it ownt let me, i get the  you must manually run dpkg --configure -a to correct the problem
[09:11] <Jowi> hello. friend of mine, using dapper, is thinking about a Turion 64 (mt-32 or similar) with onboard ati xpress 200. anyone is using ubuntu on a board/cpu like that? any issues?
[09:11] <Courtlandj> [sam] : I am boggled. According to mount, it is read-write, but ..?
[09:11] <ic56> valehru: normally, the installer will put all filesystems you create in /etc/fstab.  Did you create those filesystems by hand, after installation?
[09:11] <[sam] > courtlandj, yea it does seem strange
[09:11] <valehru> I have an ext3 disk as a backup
[09:11] <valehru> which I created years ago, it has all of my main files
[09:11] <piqqy> why isn't Xubuntu 6.06 letting me do a raid config in the partitioner?
[09:11] <^richiefrich> eclypse:  did u do eselect
[09:11] <ic56> valehru: so, that disk pre-dates your Ubuntu installation?
[09:11] <valehru> ya
[09:12] <[sam] > courlandj, but there is a umask=000 , what does it mean
[09:12] <valehru> ic56, there is no os on it...only files...
[09:12] <Courtlandj> piqqy: You might need the Dapper Alternative install disk?
[09:12] <eclypse> eselect?
[09:12] <eclypse> what do you mean?
[09:12] <^richiefrich> to select sti
[09:12] <^richiefrich> ati
[09:12] <theine> jtj: Does "sudo dpkg -r flashplugin-nonfree" work?
[09:12] <ic56> valehru: when you installed ubuntu, you should have informed of the pre-existing partitions and where you wanted them mounted.  Now you're gonna have to do some extra work...
[09:12] <eclypse> how would one go abouit doing that?
[09:12] <^richiefrich> eselect opengl set ati
[09:12] <ic56> valehru: informed -> informed it
[09:13] <valehru> yes,....I suppose I should have....
[09:13] <valehru> but there should be a way to change the default of the installation
[09:13] <eclypse> it says 'eselect : command not found
[09:13] <^richiefrich> and do u have  Driver  "fglrx"
[09:13] <eclypse> yes
[09:13] <eclypse> I do
[09:13] <eclypse> but fglrxinfo gives me that error.
[09:13] <eclypse> almost as if it disabled its self.
[09:13] <eclypse> :(
[09:13] <Courtlandj> [sam] : One second...
[09:13] <jtj> theine ok now that has said it has removed flashplugin-nonfree
[09:13] <inono> How do you switch between workspaces quicky ?
[09:14] <^richiefrich> eclypse:  eselect-opengl
[09:14] <ic56> valehru: are you just exploring, trying to figure out the right way to do this in the GUI, or do you just want it done and over with?
[09:14] <eclypse> notfound
[09:14] <^richiefrich> thats what supplies eselect
[09:14] <eclypse> oi
[09:14] <eclypse> oic
[09:14] <^richiefrich> :)
[09:14] <eclypse> you want me to apt-get it?
[09:14] <[sam] > courlandj, i was just trying to backup the files and reinstall linux because linux was unstable after I reinstalled mbr
[09:14] <^richiefrich> try it it might help
[09:14] <theine> jtj: cool, now try "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree" again
[09:14] <Courtlandj> [sam] : umask=000 is basically like setting all the files in that mountpoint as chmod 777. In other words, anyone can read, write, execute them...
[09:15] <eclypse> couldn't find those packages.
[09:15] <[sam] > courtlandj, yea the system seems inconsistent
[09:15] <valehru> ic56, well....when I change it in the GUI it works.....however when I reboot the system it goes back to the default setting of /tmp/blah blah .....just want the change to be permenant....so I think I'll just add it in the fstab file instead..
[09:15] <Courtlandj> [sam] : So if you're accessing it as root, then you should -really- have no problems writing?
[09:16] <valehru> i've run the gui as sudo as well...and it makes no difference
[09:16] <valehru> always reverts back to the defaults
[09:16] <^richiefrich> eclypse: well what have u all done ?   and what ATi-driver ?  ver i mean
[09:16] <eclypse> umm
[09:16] <jtj> theine thanks yes that seems to have worked and its started installing the rest of the package
[09:16] <eclypse> I got the fglrx from the repos
[09:16] <eclypse> apt-get
[09:16] <^richiefrich> ok what ver
[09:16] <theine> jtj: great
[09:16] <jtj> theine yes, thanks
[09:16] <Horuzlna> hi. I installed ubuntu using my usb2 keyboard... but now i've plugged in a ps2 keyboard and it doesn't work properly.. you can't switch tty's or anything (alt-F2) writes a capitol B
[09:16] <Horuzlna> how can I fix this?
[09:16] <theine> jtj: you're welcome
[09:16] <nansub0111> hello. i hell a dell inspiron 5000 with an old radeon 7500. i just installed dapper 6.06 and i've noticed that some of the gtk buttons get corrupted at times. is anyone else experiencing something similar, and if so have u fixed it? and hwo?
[09:17] <Horuzlna> usb keyboard, typo
[09:17] <eclypse> and I've installed XGL and everything it need.s
[09:17] <[sam] > courtlandj, I think so, besides ntfs, i'm not sure about vfat
[09:17] <ic56> valehru: ok. you know how to do that?
[09:17] <Courtlandj> eclypse: I just thought of something, heh. You may want to try doing a sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:17] <^richiefrich> eclypse: ooh u in XGL ?
[09:17] <valehru> yeah...testing it out now
, not quite
[09:17] <ic56> valehru: ok. l8r
, its giving me an error
[09:17] <jtj> theine oh dear when it insatlls the rest of the easyubuntu pakage which was i suppose in the queue it comes back to the flahpluin and freezes again
[09:18] <Courtlandj> eclypse: This will make sure all your stuff is the latest, maybe there's something fixed in a newer version of something...
[09:18] <valehru> ic56, /dev/sdb1  /media/backup ext3  defaults  1 2
[09:18] <^richiefrich> eclypse: well fglrx  doesnt work well in XGL
[09:18] <eclypse> eveyrthing hates ATI apparently
[09:18] <eclypse> but I'm not giving up
[09:18] <^richiefrich> eclypse: just an FYI
[09:18] <^richiefrich> no not everything
[09:18] <theine> jtj: can't you tell easyubuntu to *not* install the flash plugin?
[09:18] <^richiefrich> it works fine here
[09:18] <Courtlandj> [sam] : vfat should not be a problem...
[09:19] <jtj> theine trying to think how to do that as i told it to do so hours ago and it just seems to run through what was in thew queue
[09:19] <valehru> ok...rebooting to see if it will work
[09:19] <sewoyl> see yaall later
[09:19] <theine> jtj: What happens if you do "sudo apt-get install -f"?
[09:19] <ompaul> jtj, go to #easyubuntu with that, they will look after you
[09:19] <ic56> valehru: seems reasonable except for the mount point.  /media is meant for removable media.  We make an exception in this channel for NTFS and HFS disks because windows users expect to find their "drives" in Places>Computer but in your case, it sounds like /local/backup would be a better place.
[09:20] <jtj> theine ok if i rebbot then run the install again it gives me optons and i can decline it then, would tht work
[09:20] <theine> jtj: maybe, but try the install -f thing
[09:21] <jtj> dpkg was interupted must manually run dpkg
[09:21] <eclypse> ok I'm running the update and dist-upgrade right now
[09:21] <theine> jtj: damn
[09:21] <theine> jtj: sudo dpkg -r flashplugin-nonfree
[09:22] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Might be a ton of stuff!  =)
[09:22] <eclypse> nah
[09:22] <eclypse> I ran dist-upgrade last night
[09:22] <eclypse> it didn't finish tho
[09:22] <eclypse> I stopped it at like 80% so I couold use the internet
[09:22] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Hmm
[09:22] <eclypse> I'm on dialup btw
[09:22] <eclypse> so
[09:22] <eclypse> I'm using a weird setup
[09:22] <eclypse> I have my desktop which is on windows on the internet
[09:22] <Courtlandj> eclypse: Oh geez.  =\   I feel sorry for you.
[09:23] <eclypse> then I have a LAN cable directly connected to the laptop
[09:23] <eclypse> then the laptop is getting internet through the desktop
[09:23] <jtj> theine ok it says removing again and not trying to install anything else
[09:23] <eclypse> :P
[09:23] <eclypse> it works lol
[09:23] <theine> jtj: good, now "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[09:23] <ryanakca> ok, for enabling web interface for CUPS, I ran "sudo adduser cupsys shadow" as described by /usr/share/doc/cupsys/README.Debian, yet the web interface still doesn't work. I get a dialog box, (like one given by htaccess) asking for a username & password. I enter cupsys. I hit Ok. "Authentication failed. Do you wish to try again?" I tried my username & pass (yes, I'm in the lpadmin group), same thing. What do I do?
[09:23] <Courtlandj> eclypse: If you get dapper + xgl + compiz running via windows + modem, then you're like some kind of linux green beret. Able to survive in the wilderness...
[09:24] <eclypse> lol
[09:24] <eclypse> lmao
[09:24] <eclypse> yeah
[09:24] <jtj> theine it installed java and then that was it, which could have been the last of the install, i guess
[09:24] <eclypse> I told you I am very patient.
[09:24] <SurfnKid> What a goal! Italia
[09:24] <theine> jtj: just to be sure: "sudo apt-get install -f"
[09:25] <jtj> theine done
[09:25] <SurfnKid> guys how can i check my hard drive for errors I get a screen saying buffer I/O error onlogical block 0
[09:25] <theine> jtj: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:25] <KinGnu> hello everybody
[09:26] <pradeep> hi KinGnu

[09:29] <SurfnKid> blacktears: and how does it feel
[09:29] <theine> jtj: looks like the flashplugin is uninstallable on your machine, maybe easyubuntu messed something up
[09:29] <blacktears> well i love linux so far
[09:29] <[sam] > courlandj, is ubuntu better than gentoo?
[09:29] <Jowi> ubotu: tell blacktears about compile
[09:30] <bigbyul> hi
[09:30] <blacktears> yeah i know about compile but were do i download them
[09:30] <theine> jtj: Perhaps try #easyubuntu, I've never really used it
[09:30] <blacktears> the compliers
[09:30] <[sam] > is ubuntu a new dist
[09:30] <jtj> theine ok well at least the block has been removed

[09:32] <ompaul> [sam] , it is downstream from debian and is getting on for two years old
[09:32] <bigbyul> where can i find the config file?

[09:36] <[sam] > earthen, it took me days just trying to install it  and  get it to work
[09:37] <earthen> [sam] , took me 4 week to get to any kind of a desktop
[09:37] <brandon> what's the command to reconfigure the xserver?
[09:37] <blacktears> hey has anyone used DSL linux?
[09:37] <apokryphos> brandon: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:37] <SurfnKid> how can i remote login to another linux box
[09:37] <earthen> [sam] , took me about 45m to get ubuntu up and working with full 3d driver for my ATI card and everything
[09:38] <gizmo_the_great1> SurfnKid: System -> Preferences -> Remote Desktop or use VNC
[09:38] <[sam] > earthen, really? I'm using a ati 9700pro,
[09:38] <ProN00b> blacktears, yes, i have used it and i can say it truly sucks hard
[09:38] <SurfnKid> gizmo_the_great1: but thru a terminal
[09:38] <SurfnKid> no gui
[09:38] <earthen> [sam] , cool same as what i have
[09:38] <gizmo_the_great1> SurfnKid: if you have vnc installed you can do it
[09:38] <ProN00b> gizmo_the_great1, stfu, he means ssh
[09:39] <ProN00b> SurfnKid, you need ssh
[09:39] <KanRiNiN> I heard the new ATI drivers were broken for the 9000pro, so I installed the 8.24's.. Problem is that they're so SLOW for some reason.
[09:39] <earthen> [sam] , and today i just got a second 19" lcd monitour gonna try and get duel hear to work :)
[09:39] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: ah thats what i was lookin for

[09:39] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: do i have to enable that
[09:39] <gizmo_the_great1> ProN00b: doesnt have to use ssh I thought. I used VNC to do it the other day

[09:40] <SurfnKid> ProN00b:  hehe thats what i thought
[09:40] <[sam] > earthen, I had issue installing ati driver to my previous linux system
[09:40] <KanRiNiN> from the forums, only for the older cards
[09:40] <KanRiNiN> like pre 9500
[09:40] <Avdi> KanRiNiN: the open source ati drivers work
[09:40] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: i knew it was some telnet type but didnt know what
[09:40] <Samus_Aran> how can I access the files on the ubuntu CD ?  -r--r--r-- 2 root root 623M 2006-05-30 18:15 filesystem.squashfs
[09:40] <[sam] > earthen, had to mannually configure the refresh rate
[09:40] <ProN00b> SurfnKid, well, you need to install sshd on the machine you want to access and then you can access it with a ssh client
[09:40] <Avdi> I've had trouble with the fglrx drivers
[09:40] <KanRiNiN> Avdi: do you mean the mesa drivers?  or the xorg drivers?
[09:40] <earthen> [sam] , i used this site as a guide ant it did pretty well i must say http://easylinux.info/wiki/Ubuntu_dapper
[09:40] <blacktears> anyone? how do i open .deb files
[09:41] <ProN00b> SurfnKid, ssh is like telnet, but its unsniffable
[09:41] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: ok cool, do i just look for the pkg and install it
[09:41] <KanRiNiN> because I couldn't install the xorgs either and I went for "Method 2"
[09:41] <blacktears> archive manager wont do it
[09:41] <Avdi> xorg
[09:41] <ProN00b> blacktears, dpgk -i or something
[09:41] <apokryphos> blacktears: man dpkg
[09:41] <apokryphos> ProN00b: that's to install
[09:41] <blacktears> ok
[09:41] <earthen> [sam] , yeah I think i had to do that too but you don't have to if you install the ati drivers
[09:41] <ProN00b> SurfnKid, apt-get install sshd ssh
[09:42] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: k
[09:42] <sskk> KanRiNiN: hmm - the fglrx are OK on my LCD, but when using TV-out, all Xv convent is streched... I've been strugeling with this issue for a few days now - this might be an explanation.
[09:42] <Unintentional> hey, does anyone know a command that sends an e-mail?
[09:42] <blacktears> it says i need superuser
[09:42] <KanRiNiN> sskk: my problem is that compared to the same drivers installed in Suse 10, I get 25% of the performance
[09:43] <Samus_Aran> blacktears: try in mc ?
[09:43] <blacktears> mc?
[09:43] <ProN00b> blacktears, go root
[09:43] <sskk> KanRiNiN: are you using openGL or Xv?
[09:43] <axel_> hey, do somebody can help me to install real player, quicktime o something similar? its just that i search packages and things like that but i always have problems and never work
[09:43] <blacktears> i know, how?
[09:43] <ProN00b> sudo su
[09:44] <ProN00b> no, wait, its sudo sh
[09:44] <apokryphos> ProN00b: no, please recommend sudo -i instead
[09:44] <KanRiNiN> Gl for games, but as you know the overlay is broken so it's turned off
[09:44] <biaf> any1 got a personal preferance regarding WebMin or ISPConfig?
[09:44] <KanRiNiN> I did the --initial Xv thing
[09:44] <McNutella> does ubuntu have an ftp sever started as default ?
[09:44] <blacktears> it says sh-3.00#
[09:44] <apokryphos> ProN00b: ideally it's better to just prefix your commands with sudo, but if you *have* to go into a root shell, then sudo -i is the best way. It sets up the environment appropriately.
[09:44] <McNutella> !ftp
[09:44] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: vsftpd, proftpd
[09:45] <McNutella> whats the easy ftp server I can run on ubuntu please ?
[09:45] <ProN00b> blacktears, do what apokryphos said
[09:45] <ProN00b> instead of what i said
[09:45] <h3sp4wn_> McNutella: proftpd is relatively easy to setup
[09:46] <ulaas> hi, how do i change console resolution to higher values to get native on my LCD ?
[09:46] <McNutella> unless there is an ftpd alredy on ubuntu
[09:46] <McNutella> !proftpd
[09:46] <ubotu> McNutella: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[09:46] <ulaas> grub?
[09:47] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: you need to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file
[09:47] <knight488> hey, anyone have experiance making DVD's play?
[09:47] <Samus_Aran> knight488: sure
[09:47] <McNutella> where is pureftpd gui, seems I already have it installed
[09:47] <apokryphos> knight488: have you followed the instructions on the wiki?
[09:47] <Bassetts> if using SSH is it possible to open another terminal on the remote machine from the SSH terminal?
[09:47] <Samus_Aran> knight488: use Xine.  install a DeCSS library, AC3 and MPEG-2 codecs
[09:48] <ProN00b> knight488, you should read the countless online resources on that topic
[09:48] <ulaas> Samus_Aran: i thought so.. how ? :)
[09:48] <Dial_tone> knight488: http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html
[09:48] <biaf> what do you get hang'n off an apple tree?
[09:48] <ProN00b> knight488, thats a question you can easyly resolve with google
[09:48] <biaf> sore arms..
[09:48] <knight488> yeah you'd think
[09:49] <Dial_tone> one thing nobody can say ubuntu lacks is documentation
[09:49] <jordo> true
[09:49] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: what bitdepth and resolution are you after ?
[09:49] <jordo> soo
[09:49] <Bassetts> if using SSH is it possible to open another terminal on the remote machine from the SSH terminal?
[09:49] <KuLover> Heya, I my motherboard has failed and if I replace it with a different one, will I have problems booting? Is there something I should do to prepair Kubuntu?
[09:50] <KuLover> Ubuntu**
[09:50] <ulaas> Samus_Aran: dont care for the depth. i need 1280x800
[09:50] <TLE> I can't get devilspie to work, installed 0.16 from repos, and made a trial .ds file but it doesn't seem to work, any ideas on how to truble shoot
[09:51] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: that is an odd resolution.  I don't think you will be able to get that in standard vesa modes
[09:52] <ulaas> Samus_Aran: do you have any links in mind or should i play holmes on google? either way thanks. ;)
[09:52] <jhenn> how can i make it so my ubuntu boots to command line only?
[09:52] <ulaas> jhenn: inittab
[09:52] <McNutella> cant figure out how to get my ip address
[09:52] <bigbyul> i got the resolution problem fixed!!
[09:52] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: I can pastebin.com you the standard vesa modes, to be used in your grub.conf
[09:52] <bigbyul> thanx [sam]
[09:52] <TLE> McNutella> ifconfig
[09:53] <ulaas> Samus_Aran: that may help! thanx
[09:53] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: but it only has the normal modes: 640x480  |  800x600  | 1024x768  | 1280x1024
[09:53] <Niklas_E> when you trying to install ubunto and when it tries to start x I asume from the cd the screen gets "not connected" got any tips for that?
[09:53] <earthen> anybody know how to do duel-Head
[09:53] <McNutella> tle thanks
[09:53] <ulaas> Samus_Aran: lemme try maybe they will do good for me
[09:53] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: I got the ssh server on one machine and I can login, but what would the password be? do i set it on the server. where's the settings to enter it
[09:54] <biaf> jeff
[09:54] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: http://pastebin.com/715290
[09:54] <biaf> oops
[09:54] <ProN00b> SurfnKid, you log into it with a normal username and password of the box
[09:54] <biaf> i thaught i was logging into my box, wrong keyboard :p
[09:54] <TLE> Anybody's got some devilspire experience
[09:54] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: if you have your kernel source or documentation installed, you can read /usr/src/linux/Documentation/framebuffer or something like that
[09:55] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: do I have to have ssh on the client too
[09:55] <ulaas> Samus_Aran: deal. thanx
[09:55] <TLE> ups devilspie !
[09:56] <ProN00b> SurfnKid, yes, you need an ssh client (putty is used mostly on windows (single exe, no install))
[09:56] <ProN00b> and ssh clients are preinstalled on most linux boxes
[09:56] <noi2> anybody knows about the Gdisk utility that allows you to use your gmail as a hard disk?
[09:56] <[sam] > anyone have orded ubuntu cd online?
[09:56] <chamo> hello
[09:56] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: ok so most clients are preinstalled so then i just need to figure out what password is on the server box, it doesnt ask for a username, just password
[09:57] <blacktears> hey i got to root and i tried everything and it says that the package isnt there
[09:57] <alexi5> what are some free good  j2ee application servers
[09:57] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: you put those hex values in your kernel config as vga=<blah>
[09:57] <blacktears> and its right on my desktop
[09:57] <noi2> I ordered the CD online, it comes in 2-3 weeks.
[09:57] <ProN00b> SurfnKid, with the linux client you do it like ssh username@hostname/ip
[09:57] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: e.g. vga=0x305
[09:57] <Dial_tone> anyone having trouble getting on aim with gaim?
[09:57] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: ok
[09:57] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: just make sure you don't replace your default kernel with it, just copy one of your kernel entries in the menu.lst file .. then you can try it, and if it doesn't work, just reboot and go back to the old menu entry
[09:58] <blacktears> can anyone help me out?
[09:58] <Dial_tone> no
[09:58] <KuLover> My motherboard has faild, when I replace it, will Ubuntu detect the new hard drive contoller drivers?
[09:58] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: add it to the end of the "kernel" line
[09:58] <ulaas> Samus_Aran: you are the man. ;)
[09:58] <Samus_Aran> KuLover: affirmative
[09:58] <alexi5> has anyone here worked with the java j2ee
[09:58] <Rambo3> KuLover: maby it tests every driver anyhow
[09:59] <KuLover> Samus_Aran, is there anything else I should be aware of when switching motherboards?
[09:59] <earthen> blacktears, you nay have to update your sources.list if you can't find and package that you know should be there
[09:59] <Samus_Aran> ulaas: various graphics cards and monitors/screens will support various other modes than those standard ones.  you can just experiment with other numbers and see what comes up
[09:59] <gizmo_the_great1> Im trying to determine what these errors relate to that I get at the end of dmesg : APIC error on CPU0: 0c(0c)
[09:59] <gizmo_the_great1> any ideas
[09:59] <blacktears> hey they said that i needed to be root
[09:59] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: doesnt let me, (ssh<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Name or service not known
[10:00] <Samus_Aran> KuLover: hold one hand on your case so you discharge the static electricity into the ground safely, and don't fry your CPU ?
[10:00] <ProN00b> ooh, SurfnKid sorry, i meant either the hostname or the ip
[10:00] <ProN00b> not both
[10:00] <Samus_Aran> gizmo_the_great1: disable APIC in the kernel
[10:00] <KuLover> Samus_Aran, haha.. very funny ><
[10:00] <gizmo_the_great1> Samus_Aran: how do I do that?
[10:00] <Samus_Aran> gizmo_the_great1: and/or in the BIOS
[10:01] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: i got it
[10:01] <earthen> blacktears, well you need to be root to install the packages, but if you cannot find the package then that is anothe problem
[10:01] <ProN00b> anyone know how i can change my systems localization ?
[10:01] <Samus_Aran> gizmo_the_great1: the 6.06 kernel spit out a few pages of APIC errors for me, so I just disabled it in my BIOS
[10:01] <ProN00b> like something like en-au to en-gb
[10:01] <gizmo_the_great1> Samus_Aran: do you know what the error actually means? Could it be the reason my PC keeps turning itself off?
[10:01] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: its the server user @ server hostname/ip
[10:01] <Samus_Aran> KuLover: it will be a painless transition
[10:01] <SurfnKid> ProN00b: thx
[10:01] <a_l_e_> no chances. now with initrd defined i get to a emergency shell. what is very strang is, that it doesn't always stop at the same place.
[10:01] <Rambo3> http://www.mega-tokyo.com/osfaq/Tell%20me%20about%20APIC
[10:01] <blacktears> okay what i did was click the package and say open with terminal then i went root and dpkg -i to install
[10:02] <ProN00b> np, Sukre^n_Pudre
[10:02] <jhenn> what do i have to change in inittab to stop graphical screen at bootup?
[10:02] <Samus_Aran> KuLover: a modular kernel like Ubuntu's will just load any modules that are needed.  you won't notice even a blip
[10:02] <earthen> blacktears, you most likely need to update you /etc/apt/sources.list file to add other package sources
[10:02] <Samus_Aran> KuLover: unless you are changing CPU architecture you don't need to worry about it
[10:02] <blacktears> how would i do that?
[10:02] <KuLover> Samus_Aran Thanks a bunch, I appreciate your help :)
[10:02] <Dial_tone> jhenn:  I believe you make 3 the default runlevel
[10:02] <earthen> blacktears, ok what are you trying to install BTW?
[10:02] <blacktears> build-essential_11.1_i386.deb
[10:03] <earthen> blacktears, I just got here so..
[10:03] <blacktears> so what?
[10:03] <ProN00b> anyone know how i can change my systems language ?
[10:03] <brandon> how can i change my display manager from gdm to kdm?
[10:03] <roryy> jhenn: disable the gdm service (don't change the default runlevel; that won't help on debian/ubuntu systems)
[10:04] <earthen> blacktears, ok one sec I'll check where it is located
[10:04] <roryy> brandon: this is a bit of a guess: try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm'
[10:04] <sloncho> hi guys. someone installed ivtv on DD? I'm following the mythtv instructions, but when I install my card firmware, the tutorial says that I have to move some firmware file to /lib/hotplug/firmware, and there is no /lib/hotplug directory in DD

[10:06] <ubotu> To use your broadcom or airport extreme card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx for info and firmware.
[10:07] <blacktears> earthen, whats goingon
[10:07] <earthen> blacktears, I was looking to see if I could find it but I cannot
[10:07] <jarle_> What is the command to start firefox in fullscreen? "firefox --fullscreen - or somthing like that?
[10:07] <blacktears> its on the ubuntu website
[10:08] <blacktears> its supposed to contain a compiler that i can use to run .tar.gz files
[10:08] <blacktears> thats how this all started
[10:08] <edlang> sheesh. no one here has built wine on amd64? I fail to believe that.
[10:08] <coldasfire06> hello peeps
[10:08] <earthen> blacktears, LOL ok so you just want to unzip the fils or what?
[10:08] <billybennett> restart required?!?!?!
[10:08] <coldasfire06> is anybody here familiar with a blackbox compilation?
[10:09] <blacktears> well i wanted to run autoscan 0.99
[10:09] <coldasfire06> or does anybody here knows a blackbox channel?
[10:09] <blacktears> and i need to know how to run it
[10:09] <Madpilot> blacktears, what is autoscan?
[10:10] <blacktears> its a program that monitors the network
[10:10] <earthen> Madpilot, blacktears I was gonn aask the same thing
[10:10] <Madpilot> blacktears, there are apps in Ubuntu's repos that do that - what sort of monitoring?
[10:10] <earthen> blacktears, what do oyu want to do sniff packets?
[10:11] <blacktears> well it monitors the users and everything, on my home network
[10:11] <blacktears> anyway
[10:11] <blacktears> the file is unzipped and i need to know where to go from there
[10:12] <Madpilot> blacktears, the easiest way to install stuff is from repos - if you clarify what you want, someone here can help you find an app that's easier to install...
[10:13] <earthen> blacktears, I not sure as i've never installed that but like Madpilot  said there are built packeges that can do that that you can apt-get to do that
[10:13] <blacktears> hey go to linux online and go to applications and network tools and youll find autoscan
[10:13] <earthen> Madpilot, I'll let you take this question over as I don't know good luck
[10:14] <jooozek> siema
[10:14] <cat> hey i have a question, how can i get my wireless card working on my laptop on the livecd was working fine,
[10:14] <jooozek> tfu
[10:14] <cat> but i want to get it working
[10:14] <Madpilot> blacktears, go System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager, use the search button to look for network monitoring - there's lots of apps
[10:15] <aujordanh> cat: what kind of card?
[10:15] <blacktears> ok
[10:15] <cat> 0000:07:00.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation Intersil ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism Duette]  (rev 01)

[10:18] <wubrgamer> hey guys which is the best file system for a daily users ? ext3, jfs, xfs, reiserfs, or something else ?
[10:18] <Stormx2> wubrgamer: ext3
[10:18] <krazykit> wubrgamer: ext3
[10:18] <wubrgamer> why ?
[10:18] <Madpilot> wubrgamer, ext3 is Ubuntu's default
[10:18] <Stormx2> ooh snap!
[10:18] <roryy> coldasfire06: try asking a specific question
[10:18] <wubrgamer> what are the differences ?
[10:19] <Stormx2> Where is the default icon set stored?
[10:19] <krazykit> wubrgamer: ext3 is the tried and true filesystem.  it's damn stable, and has a good fsck.
[10:19] <krazykit> jfs and xfs are really meant for servers, wubrgamer
[10:20] <testingthis> Hi! im a new user to ubuntu.. Where can i find a good ftp program?

[10:21] <krazykit> stealth1: intel chip?
[10:21] <brandon> how can i get x to automatically start? it turned that feature off, and now i want to reactivate it. is it in xorg.conf somewhere?
[10:21] <krazykit> stealth1: intel graphics, that is
[10:21] <graveson> anyone know where i can find the the xine plugin for vdr
[10:21] <Dial_tone> you're welcome
[10:21] <stealth1> ati mobility 9200
[10:21] <dli> brandon, update-rc.d -f gdm defaults
[10:21] <krazykit> stealth1: oh.  i have a newer compaq, and my x server crashes when i try to do tv-out with the button
[10:21] <ipfw> anyone use Azureus ?
[10:22] <peteza> is there any way to start Ubuntu with just a command prompt?
[10:22] <dli> petej, update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[10:22] <Niklas_E> if you try to boot from the cd to try to install ubuntu, tried vga, 1024x768, 1280x1024 and safe grafic card, none works, I get "no signal", even tried 640x480, got any ideas what to do?
[10:22] <peteza> and how to I upt ut back if I chnage my mind? :-)
[10:22] <armedking> peteza: Yes there is
[10:23] <brandon> dli: says gdm is already supposed to start automatically
[10:23] <armedking> peteza: When at promt login using your account details and then type "startx"
[10:23] <brandon> dli: it'snot gdm or kdm, it's x
[10:23] <NET||abuse> gdm starts the x server with a gnome session
[10:24] <biaf> can i add wirless support via the gui somewhere
[10:24] <peteza> Ok... I'll give that a shot thanks...
[10:24] <hangfire> I thought x was the windows gui
[10:25] <peteza> I'm running a webserver and dont see the point in having a UI slowing me down
[10:25] <dli> biaf, which card?
[10:25] <hanasaki> running 6.06 and gnome... when i click logout on the panel.. it no longer gives the option to save the layout
[10:26] <redeye> hi
[10:26] <biaf> its the usb inventra , from the wanadoo system
[10:26] <redeye> i got a question concerning the safe boot mode
[10:26] <Madpilot> hanasaki, that's a "feature" of the new (garbage) logout window :|
[10:27] <peteza> Will the command-> update-rc.d -f gdm add <- work later on?
[10:27] <sewoyl> !dvd
[10:27] <ubotu> sewoyl: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[10:27] <redeye> how can i change the default user ( on my comp its root without pw) or at least set a pw?
[10:27] <hanasaki> Madpilot: ? eh?
[10:28] <Stormx2> How do I run a different GTK engine?
[10:28] <roryy> redeye: i believe you can set a password on grub
[10:28] <Madpilot> hanasaki, the missing "Save layout" checkbox - it was deliberately removed from 6.06's logout dialogue

[10:28] <redeye> ok thx
[10:28] <redeye> a lot
[10:28] <hanasaki> Madpilot: what!? why
[10:29] <Stormx2> How do I run a different GTK2 engine?
[10:29] <Madpilot> hanasaki, no idea - give me a sec, I'll see if there's a bug filed complaining about it. If not, start one ;)
[10:29] <hanasaki> any way to reenable?
[10:29] <hanasaki> it showed up Madpilot when i first installed 6.06 some update killed it
[10:30] <Madpilot> hanasaki, there might be a way to go back to the stock Gnome logout, instead of Ubuntu's customized one
[10:30] <Jowi> Stormx2: it's automatic when you select the corresponding theme (if the engine is installed)
[10:30] <biaf> dli : i mean inventel
[10:30] <hanasaki> i like the ubuntu.. except for no save layout
[10:30] <dli> biaf, what's in lsusb ?
[10:31] <biaf> dli : is that a folder in etc?
[10:31] <Stormx2> Jowi: I installed a .deb of it
[10:31] <Stormx2> Jowi: And I don't see the theme :(
[10:32] <Jowi> Stormx2: it must be in either /usr/share/themes or in /home/username/.themes
[10:33] <Anderson> How do you check your local mail?
[10:33] <Jowi> Stormx2: if you have the engine you need the theme as well and vice versa
[10:33] <Anderson> From the terminal
[10:33] <Jowi> Anderson: mutt
[10:33] <Cripps> w00t
[10:33] <Anderson> command not found
[10:34] <amee2k> what package contains the man pages for glibc functions?  (it is NOT glibc-doc - that one only contains pthreads man pages, HTML handbook and info stuff)

[10:38] <cat> the apt isn't working at all
[10:38] <jtj> ok sec ill open terminal and back up to command
[10:38] <SurfnKid> cat whats it doing
[10:38] <dli> aergern, what do you need? use synaptic or apt to install packages
[10:38] <Miles_Prower> Hello there
[10:39] <detox332> www.gnome-look.org
[10:39] <SurfnKid> cat you get an error or cant connect?
[10:39] <Jowi> aerojava: art.gnome.org for themes, www.gnomefiles.org for apps
[10:39] <cat> nope
[10:39] <cat> i get this error
[10:39] <cat> W: Couldn't stat source package list http://security.ubuntu.com breezy-security/restricted Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/security.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy-security_restricted_binary-i386_Packages) - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[10:39] <jtj> detox sudo dpkg -r flashplugin-nonfree
[10:39] <cat> that error i get
[10:39] <aerojava> thank you jovi
[10:39] <hanasaki> Madpilot:  what package woudl that be in?
[10:39] <SurfnKid> cat not sure on there ask the experts
[10:39] <detox332> ok removed
[10:39] <Madpilot> hanasaki, not sure - just a sec
[10:40] <Miles_Prower> I'd need some quick help with fstab > i'd like to bind /media/ush-hdd to a folder in my home (/home/miles/usb-hdd)
[10:40] <Miles_Prower> How should i do that ?
[10:40] <amnezia> hi. how can I tell network-manager to use my wlan interface? only my eth0 is managed via nm
[10:40] <testingthis> where can i find gftp in ubuntu?
[10:40] <amnezia> testingthis:  maybe in universe
[10:40] <detox332> sudo apt-get install gftp
[10:40] <Jowi> Miles_Prower: with the "ln" (link) command
[10:40] <jtj> detox ok then i went to synaptic and highlighted flashgetplugin and it asked if i wanted to remove 1 part of installation or words to that effect i removed it then i chose to install it
[10:40] <Madpilot> hanasaki, might be GDM? Leave it blank if you're not sure, or use GDM - it's easy enough for someone to change later
[10:41] <Miles_Prower> Jowi, what would the line to add look like?
[10:41] <Miles_Prower> (I'n new to Linux, too.)
[10:41] <jtj> detox i think the prob is there is a part of it which hangs in the installer so you need to remove that after you've run tht -r command
[10:41] <Jowi> Miles_Prower: ln -s target directory (for a symbolic link)
[10:41] <redrocco> I get a couldnt find package unbuntu desktop error
[10:41] <KyoLptp`> Ok, I'll try again: Will the Ubuntu Install Disk attempt to install anything to my hard drive if I start it in Rescue mode? I don't want to install linux; just back up the MBR to prepare to try out Vista beta 2.
[10:42] <Miles_Prower> With ln I have errors while sharing this folder using SAMBA
[10:42] <detox332> i dont have a flashgetplugin
[10:42] <steri> anyone know how I install flashp 8 on ubuntu?
[10:42] <Miles_Prower> I'd like to try mounting the HDD in another location to solve those
[10:43] <Miles_Prower> (User rights related errors - for some reasons, SAMBA asks me for a password which I don't have)
[10:43] <jtj> detox corretcion the flashplugin-nonfree, its the program trying to install, sorry my mistake
[10:43] <detox332> oh ok, i thought maybe that was something else
[10:43] <ube> is there a way to recover root password?
[10:44] <aerojava> There are a page in Spanish that talks about recovering root password
[10:44] <Miles_Prower> How can I restart fstab?
[10:45] <cat> how can you get a wireless card for a laptop working on ubuntu?

[10:46] <Miles_Prower> thanks
[10:46] <jtj> detox if you select it as if you wanted to downoload it, there isn't an option mark for complete removal?
[10:46] <Bassetts> can anyone help me with screen
[10:46] <raphink> Miles_Prower: /!\ this will attempt to mount all the volumes, but to unmoutn the ones that are not in fstab
[10:46] <h3sp4wn> Bassetts: what about it ?

[10:48] <raphink> Bassetts: I tink so, see man screen
[10:48] <h3sp4wn> Bassetts: screen -list and then screen -r 24025.pts-5.server
[10:48] <Miles_Prower> The mount point is chmod 777

[10:55] <h3sp4wn> Basetts: control a and then the number (which is in control a w)
[10:55] <satino> I've been able to run xvid and avi files for a while, but suddenly yesterday vlc and totem won't play them anymore, anybody know what may couse this ?

[10:56] <h3sp4wn> iNiku: I try to avoid that
[10:56] <icefeldt> what do i have to add to the smb.conf to make a share accessable for everyone in the network, so that they do not have to enter a user and passwor?
[10:56] <KyoLptp`> Hey, will the Ubuntu Install Disk attempt to install anything to my hard drive if I start it in Rescue mode? I don't want to install linux; just back up the MBR to prepare to try out Vista beta 2.
[10:56] <bullrage> is there a command to see what modules have been modprobed?
[10:57] <Bassetts> h3sp4wn: how can i change from the screen i just opened back to the screen i opened it from?
[10:57] <kaiman_mxl> I need help with lpadmin
[10:57] <iNiku> h3sp4wn: me too, used to have to do it in the old days, though
[10:57] <roryy> bullrage: lsmod might be what you want
[10:57] <iNiku> Bassetts: C-a C-a to switch back and forth between the two last used screens
[10:57] <h3sp4wn> Bassetts: control a then w (and at the bottom of the screen it lists all the running screens)
[10:58] <Bassetts> h3sp4wn: i mean from the screen i just opened to the screen i first get when i login through ssh
[10:58] <h3sp4wn> Bassetts: look at the bottom then find the number and do control a 0 (for example)

[10:58] <SurfnKid> guys how can i set up a proxy server on linux

[10:59] <iNiku> Bassetts: so you want to get out of screen? C-a C-d will "detach" the screen session and leave it running in the background

[11:00] <iNiku> I always use -x, lets me connect to the same screen from several terminals
[11:00] <DrewMarin> anybody know how I can get a app that plays dvd in linux totem-xine wont install and Mplayer isnt available in package list
[11:01] <NET||abuse> hmm, just got my wirless network card doing basic scans for networks.. is there any better tools for scanning network and getting details?
[11:01] <NET||abuse> i have heard names like kismet and netsnort?
[11:01] <h3sp4wn> NET||abuse: What do you mean like cracking networks ?
[11:01] <krazykit> NET||abuse: those are not for just basic scans.
[11:01] <sewoyl> oh I thought Beagle was in dapper ??
[11:02] <iNiku> h3sp4wn: yes, if they have the permissions. more useful is to just connect to your screen session from several terminals, either windows side by side or, say, from your home and work machines
[11:02] <NET||abuse> cracking. not really.. more like finding things like channel cross overs and things
[11:02] <NET||abuse> finding a clean bandwidth to run networks on etc..
[11:02] <NET||abuse> signal strenght readings etc..
[11:02] <speyer> who can help me with bluetooth on mobiles ?
[11:03] <iNiku> h3sp4wn: like, I always have irssi running under screen and I connect to the same screen from the laptop and desktop at home and from my work machine
[11:03] <dixie> i like dark night with open window and sitting at the terminal
[11:04] <Stormx2> Got rid of all the bulky gnome fonts and used pixelfonts and verdana at low sizes :D
[11:04] <Stormx2> *a million times more productive* xD
[11:04] <h3sp4wn> iNiku: I have used it before but I don't need it most of the time
[11:05] <iNiku> h3sp4wn: I use it all the time. also, for work stuff, I may have all my connections to the servers under screen, then have a bunch of terminals open side by side connected to the same screen but showing different "windows"
[11:06] <iNiku> h3sp4wn: that way the connections will stay there even if I lose network or put the laptop to sleep or whatever
[11:06] <noorms> hello all
[11:06] <graveson> anyone know where i can find the latest vdr packaged with the plugins
[11:06] <h3sp4wn> iNiku: I try not to have loads of connections to servers open (use ssh-agent) and can connect very quickly if I need to
[11:06] <noorms> how can I get firewire working on dapper ?
[11:06] <noorms> trying to connect to an xp computer over firewire
[11:07] <Sjoerd-> Hello all, I have a router that uses WPA encryption. The computer with Ubuntu has a Linksys WMP54G card, how do I use it with WPA?
[11:08] <amnezia> sjoerd:  best way would be to install network-manager I think
[11:08] <Sjoerd-> Ok thank you, let me google for that
[11:08] <amnezia> no google
[11:08] <amnezia> synaptic
[11:09] <amnezia> search for nm- and network-manager
[11:09] <jrib> DrewMarin: open a terminal: Applications > accessories > terminal and type: gedit /etc/apt/sources.list        Then go to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and post the contents of the file that opens up
[11:09] <KinGnu> ppl can you please tell me how to install something that is in the desktop using the terminal????
[11:09] <noorms> amnezia - any ideas about firewire ?
[11:09] <amnezia> noorms:  not your kind of problem
[11:09] <iNiku> h3sp4wn: I often need to be running stuff on several servers at the same time, or looking at logs, or whatever... using screen and multiple xterms is very handy for that
[11:10] <amnezia> I used the raw1394 module for video grabbing
[11:10] <KyoLptp`> Lol, in this time I've tried searching the forums, but specifically, to no avail
[11:10] <jrib> KinGnu: what "something"?
[11:10] <KyoLptp`> So I'll just draw out my query over several lines.
[11:10] <Sjoerd-> amnezia: I can just install this networkmanager and then put my settings in it?
[11:11] <skavenge> anyone running a dell wireless wlan 1350 card? im wondering if this card is supported, since once i try and install if the net doesn't work i don't have any other way to connect for help/resources ..
[11:11] <DrewMarin> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/15880
[11:11] <KinGnu> the w32 codecs
[11:11] <KyoLptp`> Ok, on my PC, I have two hard drives- the first one is 40 GB, the second is 120 GB
[11:11] <KyoLptp`> I only have Windows installed on said PC.
[11:11] <KyoLptp`> But, I'd like to try out Vista.
[11:11] <amnezia> sjoerd:  kinda. you'll have a new applet
[11:11] <Sjoerd-> can i install it with: sudo apt-get network-manager ?
[11:11] <amnezia> sjoerd:   as I said earlier
[11:12] <KyoLptp`> So I set aside a few gigs on the C drive to make room for it.
[11:12] <DrewMarin> KyoLptp: vista is not worth its download time I know I tried it
[11:12] <Tommy2k4> what packages must i install to be able to configure and make
[11:12] <jrib> DrewMarin: you've got mixed breezy and dapper repos.  Did you upgrade successfully?
[11:12] <Sjoerd-> Sorry I sometimes have no idea what things mean :)
[11:12] <alexi5> has anyone here ever had any bad performance with samba on dapper
[11:12] <DrewMarin> jrib: yea
[11:12] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: build-essential
[11:12] <KyoLptp`> However, I know that Vista tends to fubar your MBR. I also know that in the past, most problems I've had with computers in general have to do with the MBR.
[11:12] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: you are in the ubuntu support channel, not windows
[11:12] <KyoLptp`> I'm getting to it.
[11:12] <jrib> ubotu: tell DrewMarin about sources
[11:13] <lindztr> hi, ive got some real trouble with my x-server.
[11:13] <jrib> DrewMarin: replace your current sources.list with the one ubotu sent you for dapper
[11:13] <KyoLptp`> Hang on. I summarized this twice and received no response, lol.
[11:13] <alexi5> file transfers through samba are really slow with dapper, when i used breezy everything was really quick  until i replaced it with dapper
[11:13] <leafw> can anyone tell me why removing gaim asks to remove the entire ubuntu-desktop ???
[11:13] <Tommy2k4> thoreauputic, configure command not found
[11:13] <alexi5> how can i solve this
[11:13] <thoreauputic> leafw: ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage
[11:13] <leafw> this is nonsense, gaim is only a (useless to me) IM app
[11:14] <Jowi> leafw: "ubuntu-desktop" is a meta package. it is safe to remove it as long as you have not planned any dist-upgrades
[11:14] <KyoLptp`> Anyway, I'd like to know how I can use the Ubuntu Dapper Drake Install or Live CD to back up the MBR, so that when I'm done trying out Vista, I can restore my computer to its original state.
[11:14] <leafw> thoreauputic : so, but removing ubuntu-desktop will remove a thousand things
[11:14] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: the configure script is in the source directory
[11:14] <amnezia> sjoerd:  make sure you comment out the lines in /etc/network/interfaces. you may need a reboot if things don't work right after that
[11:14] <leafw> Jowi : hum I see
[11:14] <krazykit> leafw: no, removing ubuntu-desktop shouldn't remove anything.
[11:14] <Tommy2k4> oo
[11:14] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: if there is no configure script, it won't be found :)
[11:14] <thoreauputic> leafw: no it won't
[11:15] <Tommy2k4> its there, how do i execute it from konsole
[11:15] <leafw> Jowi : so then dist-upgrades will fail, or will simply reinstall gaim?
[11:15] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: ./configure
[11:15] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: "dd if=/dev/hdx of=MBR-backup bs=512 count=1" to backup the mbr
[11:15] <Tommy2k4> ty
[11:15] <wubrgamer> hey guys, i'm installing a package, and it's taking an abnormally long time to install
[11:15] <zenlunatic> where are fonts installed?
[11:15] <KyoLptp`> Ok, um
[11:15] <wubrgamer> should i just exit synaptic /
[11:15] <wubrgamer> ?
[11:15] <thoreauputic> Tommy2k4: ./  means "right here in this directory"
[11:15] <wubrgamer> i don't want to install it anymore
[11:15] <KyoLptp`> How, exactly?
[11:15] <KyoLptp`> Do I use the Rescue mode on the Install CD?
[11:16] <Jowi> leafw: it will not fail but you might miss some important upgrades. if you need to dist-upgrade in the future, simply install "ubuntu-desktop" before performing a dist-upgrade
[11:16] <KyoLptp`> Boot into Linux Live? Gotta be specific.
[11:16] <Azi_Dahaka> hi
[11:16] <leafw> Jowi : I see, thank you
[11:16] <noorms> anyone have any ideas how to get firewire working on ubuntu ?
[11:16] <Tommy2k4> checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths!

[11:17] <Azi_Dahaka> is the issue with the broadcomm wireless nic solved on dapper ?
[11:17] <wubrgamer> "dpkg was interuppted run dpkg --reconfigure  -a now"
[11:17] <DrewMarin> jrib: thx
[11:17] <wubrgamer> what should i do ? it's not letting me apt-ge

[11:17] <jrib> DrewMarin: working now?
[11:18] <wubrgamer> hey guys, i'm installing a package, and it's taking an abnormally long time to install
[11:18] <hanasaki> amarok is only  picking up my flac not my mp3 files
[11:18] <wubrgamer> i don't want it installed anymore, how do i call it off mid apt-get ?
[11:18] <Tommy2k4> !mp3
[11:18] <jrib> ubotu: tell hanasaki about mp3
[11:18] <ubotu> methinks mp3 is a patented format; to enable mp3 capability see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats
[11:18] <DrewMarin> jrib: about to check mplayer to see if it will play my dvd
[11:18] <hanasaki> jrib: already did that
[11:18] <thoreauputic> hanasaki: try installing libxine-extracodecs
[11:19] <hanasaki> already did that. .thats not the issue
[11:19] <Jowi> wubrgamer: i got that just now. the solution was to "sudo scrollkeeper-rebuilddb -v", let it run (will take 5-10 minutes) and then do the install
[11:19] <Azi_Dahaka> ubotu, help
[11:19] <sewoyl> sjoerd
[11:19] <DrewMarin> jrib: yes it does
[11:19] <wubrgamer> ?
[11:19] <wubrgamer> it's still configureing
[11:19] <wubrgamer> aack
[11:19] <hanasaki> the problem is that amarok only sees the flac files so thats what it is puting on my ipod.. i also have mp3 files in there
[11:19] <jrib> DrewMarin: great
[11:19] <alexi5> can anyone help me
[11:19] <DrewMarin> jrib: Im so glad I also have linux now
[11:19] <Jowi> wubrgamer: ctrl-c to stop it. then run the scrollkeeper command. then "apt-get remove" it
[11:19] <wubrgamer> can you pm me what to do, i'm in the middle of dpkg --configure -a right now, please......................i just want to stop the install of flashplugin-nonfree
[11:20] <skavenge> checking the  hardware support page, my wireless card (dell 1350) says its not supported out of box and needs ndiswrapper+bcmwl5a.inf .. when i click on the link for the install instructions, it says the page is not there, can anyone point me to the correct link on this?
[11:20] <jtj> wubrgamer that is a problem
[11:20] <genus> hi, does anybody have any recommendations for a data recovery program?
[11:20] <KyoLptp`> Lol, wow.
[11:20] <jtj> wubr sudo dpkg -r flashplugin-noonfree
[11:20] <shirow> i'm having a strange problem with ubuntu. whenever i click the 'change icon' icon in the properties of a shortcut on the launcher panel, it opens the 'change icon' screen for a split second and then it closes without any error
[11:20] <skonk1> Is there any ActiveSync like app for ubuntu/linux to connect to pda/mobile devices?
[11:20] <shirow> does anyone know why?
[11:20] <anarcat> hullo
[11:20] <KyoLptp`> I finally get a bit of help, but it's a tad too vague.
[11:21] <anarcat> have a X11 problem here after upgrade from breezy do dapper
[11:21] <KyoLptp`> I'd assume the seemingly most likely way to use said help
[11:21] <DuniaImpian> how to setup ubuntu so it start program such as gaim and skype at start up? thx
[11:21] <anarcat> the usb mouse isn't detect by X and it craps out with "no core pointer" thing...
[11:21] <wubrgamer> thank you guys
[11:21] <wubrgamer> what is the scrollkeeper command again ?
[11:21] <KyoLptp`> But *every* single time I assume something in regards to Linux, it ends up biting me in the ass.
[11:21] <skavenge> hah
[11:21] <jrib> DuniaImpian: system > preferences > sessiosn > startup
[11:21] <KyoLptp`> So, Jowi, can you *please* be as specific as possible with this?
[11:21] <genus> so what should I use for data recovery?
[11:22] <lindztr> My X server wont start and i get some errors: (WW) NV: No matching Device selection for instance (BUS ID PCI:some numbers) found, then (EE) No device detected, then Fatal server error: no screens found: X10: fatal 10 error 104 (connection reset by peer on X server ":0.0" after request (0 known processed) with 0 events remaning, is there anyway to fix my x server or do i have to reinstall ubuntu?
[11:22] <shirow> lindztr: what graphics card do you have
[11:22] <krazykit> isn't kill -9 supposed to flat-out kill any process?
[11:22] <DuniaImpian> jrib, thx
[11:22] <Blissex> lindztr: chekc that your graphics card has got that bus id
[11:22] <lindztr> shirow, an nvidia 6600GT
[11:22] <aurelius> ...installed dapper...downloaded & installed nvidia driver...ran the setup...says it was successful...get an x server error saying it couldnt find module nvidia...help?  do i need a modulepath statement?
[11:22] <thoreauputic> krazykit: assuming you own it
[11:23] <shirow> lindztr: do lspci and check the bus ID of your card
[11:23] <krazykit> thoreauputic: well, yeah, of course.
[11:23] <shirow> then do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:23] <thoreauputic> krazykit: else use sudo kill -9
[11:23] <shirow> and make sure the bus id matches
[11:23] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: step by step instructions ---> http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/20/backing-up-the-mbr/
[11:23] <lindztr> Blissex, otherwise how do i change it?
[11:23] <wubrgamer> what is the scrollkeeper command again ?
[11:23] <jtj> wubr im a complete new but tht happened with me this eve i went to synaptics and completely removed and then i was able to install it ok
[11:24] <jtj> wubr i mean tht flashplugin prob
[11:24] <mauran> Hi all, any scim users here?
[11:24] <KyoLptp`> See, here's the thing
[11:24] <Blissex> lindztr: otherwise just remove the BusID line from '/etc/X11/xorg.conf', it is almost always useless (unless you have two header setup)
[11:24] <Tommy2k4> how do i unzip a file
[11:24] <KyoLptp`> I don't know EXACTLY what to do with that.
[11:24] <lindztr> Blissex and Shirow, thanks.
[11:24] <KyoLptp`> Do I put that in a terminal?
[11:24] <genus> .zip/.rar are both for windows
[11:24] <aurelius> Tommy2k4 tar -xzvf (file) works fo me
[11:25] <Tommy2k4> k
[11:25] <genus> er guess not
[11:25] <KyoLptp`> If so, exactly how do I access said terminal?
[11:25] <genus> I thought that you would have to get a tarball
[11:25] <skavenge> checking the  hardware support page, my wireless card (dell 1350) says its not supported out of box and needs ndiswrapper+bcmwl5a.inf .. when i click on the link for the install instructions, it says the page is not there, can anyone point me to the correct link on this?
[11:25] <Tommy2k4> well im hoping it works
[11:25] <thoreauputic> !tell aurelius about nvidia
[11:25] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: you should have a terminal in a menu on the live cd. I never used the live cd so I can't help you there
[11:26] <KyoLptp`> Ok, I'll try it.
[11:26] <rem_> hey.. Does anyone know how to configure synaptic through a proxy WITH Authentification (I managed in the command line, but not in synaptic ..) ??
[11:26] <mauran> after installing scim-m17n input method, its not showing up in scim-setup
[11:26] <larson9999> the live cd doesn't work on one of my 2 machines'
[11:26] <genus> does anybody have any suggestions for a data recovery program?
[11:26] <mauran> how can I get scim m17n work?
[11:26] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: otherwise the windows install cd should have a failsafe/repair mode that you can use the "fixmbr" command with
[11:26] <KyoLptp`> no
[11:26] <Tommy2k4> checking for Qt... configure: error: Qt (>= Qt 3.2) (headers and libraries) not found. Please check your installation!
[11:26] <KyoLptp`> fixmbr doesn't work
[11:26] <Tommy2k4> whats package name for qt?
[11:26] <krazykit> Tommy2k4: you need the -dev package
[11:27] <KyoLptp`> there have been at least 3 occasions during which it was supposed to
[11:27] <Tommy2k4> qt-dev?
[11:27] <KyoLptp`> but it did not
[11:27] <rem_> ..and hwy did they changed to not go trhough apt.conf in dapper `?? it was wokring fine b4 !
[11:27] <krazykit> Tommy2k4: maybe?  i dunno.
[11:27] <anarcat_> (II) LoadModule: "mouse"
[11:27] <anarcat_> (WW) Warning, couldn't open module mouse
[11:27] <anarcat_> (II) UnloadModule: "mouse"
[11:27] <KyoLptp`> each occasion resulted in the complete decimation of all my data
[11:27] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: how nice I don't use Windows then :)
[11:27] <Tommy2k4> nope its not :(
[11:27] <anarcat_> xserver-xorg-input-mouse is installed, so i don't get it\
[11:27] <rem_> hey.. Does anyone know how to configure synaptic through a proxy WITH Authentification (I managed in the command line, but not in synaptic ..) ??
[11:27] <Jowi> anarcat: did you compile your own kernel?
[11:28] <mitja> Hello, I'm stuck in console, init 2 and kde won't start. It is due changing permissions on several directories. Does anyone know what should I do?
[11:28] <Tommy2k4> whats the package name for qt dev files
[11:28] <KyoLptp`> I don't see any terminal option on the live cd menu
[11:28] <Stormx2> mitja: Change the permissions back?
[11:28] <anarcat_> Jowi: no
[11:28] <higen> who is maintaining the Anjuta package in ubuntu? 1.2 seems rather old to me..
[11:28] <higen> Rob Bradford according to the package.. a debian guy..
[11:28] <higen> how can it be updated?
[11:29] <Stormx2> higen: Contact him?
[11:29] <mitja> Stormx2: yeah, I did some, but don't exactly know what all of them should be.
[11:29] <higen> Stormx2: good idea.. :)
[11:29] <Flannel> higen: what's the current version?
[11:29] <Stormx2> mitja: What permissions did you change?
[11:29] <anarcat_> i suspect that the xorg.conf config file is stupid/lacking something
[11:29] <mitja> Stormx2: all of them
[11:29] <mitja> I mounted it somewhere else
[11:29] <genus> does anybody have any suggestions for a data recovery program?
[11:29] <mauran> if anyone knows about scim-m17n, please come to privete chat
[11:29] <noorms> anyone have any ideas how to get firewire working on ubuntu ?
[11:29] <Stormx2> mitja: You changed every directory's permissions?!
[11:29] <Jowi> anarcat: oh. i know the mouse module can fail if you compile it into the kernel instead of using it as a module... ummmm.... try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and use /dev/input/mice as the mouse device maybe?
[11:29] <mitja> Stormx2: yeah
[11:29] <Stormx2> mitja: To?
[11:30] <Stormx2> mitja: Please don't say 777 ;_;
[11:30] <mitja> Stormx2: root 0755
[11:30] <Flannel> higen: 1.2.4 is the current stable release.
[11:30] <Stormx2> mitja: Thats awefully silly... and I don't know what to do really
[11:30] <higen> Flannel: correct.. but ubuntu isnt known for always having stable releases
[11:30] <anarcat_> Jowi: /dev/input/mice is already the core pointer..
[11:30] <anarcat_> i'll try dpkg-reconfigure
[11:31] <mitja> Stormx2: some function in recovery mode perhaps?
[11:31] <Flannel> higen: eh? what?  the package in the repos is 1.2.4
[11:31] <mitja> Stormx2: or a repair CD?
[11:31] <Stormx2> mitja: I don't know man. I haven't got a clue.
[11:31] <skonk1> Is there any linuxprinting-default driver? I cannot find any linux driver for my Canon Pixma MP500.
[11:31] <genus> does anybody have any suggestions for a data recovery program?
[11:32] <Stormx2> Someone help mitja, he has changed all the permissions in his FS and wants to revert em all.
[11:32] <mitja> Stormx2: ok
[11:32] <Stormx2> genus: Not sure... let me run a search
[11:32] <ompaul> mitja, back up your personal files with the use of a live cd and reinstall
[11:32] <higen> Flannel: there are unstable at 2.0.x
[11:32] <alexi5> hi
[11:32] <ompaul> mitja, too many files too many permissions
[11:32] <alexi5> when i upgraded to dapper from breezy my samba file transfer speed decreased drastically
[11:32] <higen> 2.0.2 seems to be the latest
[11:33] <Sapote> anybody know pdf location of this guide http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/es/index.html  ??
[11:33] <alexi5> what could be the cause of this
[11:33] <EnterUserName> hi
[11:33] <dibblego> why don't I see a "Suspend" option in the shutdown dialog?
[11:33] <EnterUserName> I need to modify the optiosn that bttv starts with
[11:33] <EnterUserName> so it runs the right tuner
[11:33] <dooglus> alexi5: mine too.  switching from cifs to smbfs fixed it for me.
[11:33] <Locust|> Hello! I just tried to upgrade Breezy up to Dapper Drake, it seemed everything went okay until I rebooted, from there, the screen flashes a few times then I get a dialog stating that there is a problem starting X and asks me would I like to diagnose the problem. At that point, the computer freezes and I'm unable to select an option. How can I fix this?
[11:33] <higen> Flannel: anyway... i will maybe mail him.. you cant help me here anyway :)..
[11:33] <EnterUserName> Whats the equivalnt to modprobe.conf?
[11:33] <EnterUserName> for ubuntu
[11:33] <alexi5> dooglus:how do i do that switch
[11:33] <Jowi> Locust|: try "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:34] <EnterUserName> hello?
[11:34] <dooglus> alexi5: I was mounting the windows share - are you?
[11:34] <EnterUserName> Can someone help me where to modify the modules field
[11:34] <Flannel> higen: I don't know what you're going to mail him about, the package is up to date.
[11:34] <Locust|> Jowi: Where would I do that at? I don't get any terminal prompts.
[11:34] <alexi5> dooglus:i was trying to acces a windows folder through nautilus
[11:34] <dooglus> alexi5: hmm.  I don't know much about nautilus, sorry.
[11:35] <Jowi> Locust|: if you can not press [ctrl-alt-f1]  and get a prompt, try to select the rescue mode in grub boot menu
[11:35] <anarcat_> bleh
[11:35] <dooglus> alexi5: I do this: sudo mount -t smbfs -o password=,uid=chris //server/d /mnt/server
[11:35] <anarcat_> Jowi: dpkg-reconfigure didn't cut it
[11:35] <anarcat_> there's no ModulePath in the xorg.conf
[11:35] <Jowi> anarcat: what kind of mouse do you have?=
[11:35] <alexi5> dooglus: ok
[11:35] <dooglus> alexi5: I used to do "-t cifs", but that became slow when I switched to dapper
[11:35] <EnterUserName> hi
[11:36] <EnterUserName> wher ecan i modify the modules
[11:36] <EnterUserName> please help :(
[11:36] <dibblego> dooglus alexi5: I use that command too, but I get caught out if the password contains odd characters - use quotes
[11:36] <serja> hi
[11:36] <alexi5> ok
[11:36] <Locust|> Jowi: Alright, I'll try that. Thanks for your help. :)
[11:36] <samy> hey everybody
[11:36] <Jowi> anarcat: there is no need for a ModulePath in xorg.conf
[11:36] <serja> I have trouble with my ATI card
[11:36] <anarcat_> Jowi: some random usb mouse
[11:36] <dooglus> dibblego: single quotes are more powerful than double ones for quoting stuff
[11:36] <anarcat_> Jowi: okay... but the module is out there
[11:37] <anarcat_> and it's telling me it can't find it
[11:37] <serja> I wonder if anyone could help me
[11:37] <Tommy2k4> in the prefix, you've chosen, are no KDE headers installed. This will fail.
[11:37] <Tommy2k4> soop, check this please and use another prefix!
[11:37] <your_mom> i tired to do a fresh install treid 4 times already, and every time i get error 17, cant mount any help
[11:37] <Jowi> anarcat: unfortunatley i have no experience with usb mice
[11:38] <anarcat_> there's also a non-functional synaptics touchpad
[11:38] <serja> anyone could help me with my ATI 3D accelaration?
[11:38] <anarcat_> i'm wondering if it's possible to start x without a mouse...
[11:38] <jrib> serja: have you seen the wiki page for ati?
[11:39] <serja> i have seen all sorts
[11:39] <anarcat_> module path is said to be /usr/X11R6/lib/modules, but the actual mouse modules are in /usr/lib/ something
[11:39] <serja> and that one too
[11:39] <anarcat_> /usr/lib/xorg/modules
[11:39] <jrib> serja: the ubuntu wiki in particular?
[11:39] <serja> none of methods helped too
[11:39] <noorms> anyone have any ideas how to get firewire working on ubuntu ?
[11:40] <serja> i tried easyubuntu
[11:40] <serja> but it didn't do anything either :(
[11:40] <anarcat_> well, this sucks
[11:40] <KanRiNiN> Easyubuntu has a problem with broken packages from what I heard
[11:41] <Tommy2k4> can anyone help me get rid of that error when doing ./configure
[11:41] <arthurb> Hi, uh anytone noticed that the picture on the front page of the ubuntu website awfully looks like some sort of svatiska ?
[11:41] <anarcat_> (EE) No Input driver matching `kbd'
[11:41] <anarcat_> (EE) No Input driver matching `mouse'
[11:41] <anarcat_> that *can't* be good
[11:41] <Jowi> anarcat: does the touchpad work or not even?
[11:42] <blacktears> hey everyone
[11:42] <blacktears> i downloaded kpackage and now i have everything i need
[11:43] <blacktears> thanks for your help
[11:43] <N9URK> biovore you here?
[11:43] <N9URK> BioVorE where you be?
[11:43] <BioVorE> yup
[11:43] <N9URK> Ok, my problem from the other night was a bad hard drive
[11:44] <N9URK> shortly after you left it stopped completely
[11:44] <BioVorE> well that will do it..
[11:44] <ryanakca> ok, for enabling web interface for CUPS, I ran "sudo adduser cupsys shadow" as described by /usr/share/doc/cupsys/README.Debian, yet the web interface still doesn't work. I get a dialog box, (like one given by htaccess) asking for a username & password. I enter cupsys. I hit Ok. "Authentication failed. Do you wish to try again?" I tried my username & pass (yes, I'm in the lpadmin group), same thing. What do I do?
[11:44] <N9URK> what did you say your callsign is?
[11:44] <BioVorE> you have to be carefull with lattent ESD damage with the nwe PC hardware.. dosn't take hardly anything..
[11:44] <BioVorE> a little static charge on your shirt it all it takes
[11:44] <N9URK> Also, I got a new hard drive to day $80 for 250G
[11:45] <BioVorE> N9URK: nice
[11:45] <anarcat_> Jowi: the touchpad doesn't work
[11:45] <BioVorE> so ready to give it another spin
[11:45] <anarcat_> but there's a deeper problem here
[11:45] <anarcat_> it can't find the modules themselves
[11:45] <N9URK> BioVorE: I have the LAMP server with desktop set up
[11:45] <Jowi> anarcat: can you disable acpi at boot to see if that works?
[11:45] <joemauch> hi, when i play a video peoples skin looks blue, any idea what could be wrong?
[11:45] <anarcat_> (EE) No Input driver matching `kbd'
[11:45] <anarcat_> (EE) No Input driver matching `mouse'
[11:45] <N9URK> BioVorE: easy install, Gnucash isn't in apt-get though so I am going to have to find the source that does have it
[11:46] <anarcat_> i can try to disable acpi......
[11:46] <anarcat_> noacpi on boot?
[11:46] <BioVorE> N9URK: its not!!  I am sure it is..
[11:46] <anarcat_> Jowi: ^^?
[11:46] <Jowi> anarcat: yeah. pci=noacpi
[11:46] <_Luks> hiya
[11:46] <anarcat_> joemauch: it's a smurf movie :P
[11:46] <_Luks> how to join MOTU ?
[11:46] <anarcat_> Jowi: linux pci=noacpi?? not simply linux noacpi?
[11:46] <ryanakca> arthurb: ???
[11:47] <joemauch> anarcat_: yeah, but it'd be nice to have it look normal, mplayer/vlc look fine, but i want gstreamer to look okay too
[11:47] <N9URK> BioVorE: I did apt-get -s install gnucash and got "couldnt find package gnucash"
[11:47] <Jowi> anarcat: at install? don't know. pci=noacpi is a grub option
[11:47] <N9URK> BioVorE: There always has to be some problem, even if just a small one ;)
[11:47] <BioVorE> it here
[11:47] <anarcat_> hmmm
[11:47] <BioVorE> you have mutliverse and stuff in the sources.list thing
[11:47] <anarcat_> so i'll reboot

[11:48] <N9URK> BioVorE: cool thanks
[11:48] <N9URK> BioVorE:  I will add it
[11:48] <BioVorE> also ass multiverse..
[11:48] <BioVorE> and take a look at easyubuntu

[11:48] <KyoLptp`> So er
[11:48] <someothernick> genus, simple backup
[11:49] <KyoLptp`> The MBR is always on the first sector of the primary HD, right?
[11:49] <paniq> does anyone have experience with pxe netboots?
[11:49] <genus> well hindsight yeah
[11:49] <genus> but it's a little too late for what I should have done
[11:49] <arthurb> ryanakca: well the people used to be forming a circle
[11:49] <N9URK> BioVorE: what can I do to get ubotu to give me a list of his commands?
[11:49] <udo> does anyone knows why i cant hear sound my system already detect my sound card
[11:49] <zukalk> can anyone tell me in which files protocols like mms:// and svn:// are associated with applications?
[11:50] <BioVorE> N9URK: Its on there wiki site
[11:50] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: yes. but if the harddisk is broken then the MBR can be troublesome to backup/restore nomatter how hard you try.
[11:50] <BioVorE> !commands
[11:50] <ubotu> rumour has it, commands is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BasicCommands or http://www.linuxcommand.org/
[11:50] <N9URK> BioVorE: ok I will look there. tnx
[11:50] <ryanakca> Arthurb: aah
[11:50] <m0nk_> hey guys
[11:50] <Jowi> KyoLptp`: you can specify another device to install the MBR to though, but I doubt win support that
[11:50] <N9URK> BioVorE: those are the basic linux commands: not ubotu's commands
[11:50] <m0nk_> im having some issues updating to the new distro
[11:51] <BioVorE> !asdfasdf
[11:51] <ubotu> BioVorE: parse error: Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[11:51] <KyoLptp`> the hard disk isn't broken
[11:51] <BioVorE> http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/ <-- look there
[11:51] <Jowi> !ubotu
[11:51] <ubotu> Yep, that's me! I'm a bot alright. Read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbotuUsage to find out how to use me. Do NOT play with me in any channel except #debian-bots.
[11:51] <udo> does anyone knows why i cant hear sound my system already detect my sound card
[11:51] <N9URK> BioVorE: nice thanks.  am looking there
[11:51] <BioVorE> I just know because I watch what othere put into it
[11:51] <KyoLptp`> it's just that whenever I try to break new ground with my PC, the fecal matter hits the temperature regulator
