[04:09] <Aerotwelve> dr_willis: Alright, when trying to apt-get, I "cannot resolve 'us.archive.ubunutu.com". Does this mean I have no wireless connection?
[04:09] <fivetwentysix> Just installed build-essential
[04:09] <novato_br> what, wols ?
[04:09] <predaeus> fivetwentysix, you need the -dev packages
[04:09] <stefg> fivethere you have it... that's not enough
[04:09] <livingdaylight> ZeroA4, just right-click and 'add workspace'
[04:09] <fivetwentysix> and libgetk2.0-deb installing now :-)
[04:09] <wols> novato_br: you pasted "ath0". that is wrong
[04:09] <dr_willis> Aerotwelve,  wirless? ICK :)
[04:09] <ZeroA4> livingdaylight, :)
[04:09] <novato_br> ZeroA4, plz what wols does he mean?
[04:09] <novato_br> cool
[04:09] <Gasten> predaeus: seems nomal in the tty..
[04:09] <novato_br> wols,
[04:09] <fivetwentysix> Thank jrib, been searching the repositries for ages looking for the right package to install
[04:09] <dr_willis> Aerotwelve,  sounds like it to me. i suggst using a wire for a while. That may be the cause of the whole issue.
[04:09] <novato_br> pvt, plz
[04:10] <Aerotwelve> dr_willis: Alright, I'll go plug it in, thanks.
[04:10] <wols> novato_br: ath0 is not eth0 as you said. there is no "eth0" in your /etc/network/interfaces
[04:10] <Gasten> predaeus: but it stil deoasn't work in the gui...
[04:10] <ZeroA4> novato_br, humm
[04:10] <dr_willis> Aerotwelve,  if it had been wired during install.. it might of allready did all the work. :) perhaps..not sure.
[04:10] <livingdaylight> ZeroA4, my VM is still downloading... so gonna pop out ... thanks amigo... hasta la proxima
[04:10] <novato_br> i cant understand very well him, Zeelot
[04:10] <novato_br> ZeroA4,
[04:11] <Gasten> predaeus: I'll try a reboot.
[04:11] <predaeus> Gasten, does dmesg, or /var/log/syslog or /var/log/xlog (or what it is called) report anything unusual?
[04:11] <wols> novato_br: paste your /etc/network/interfaces again. this time in a pastebin
[04:11] <ZeroA4> wols, ok i transleated to him
[04:11] <ZeroA4> livingdaylight, :)
[04:12] <wols> novato_br: do not /msg me. /ignore novato_br
[04:12] <novato_br> sorry
[04:12] <novato_br> wols, plz
[04:12] <novato_br> i need your help
[04:12] <Antipeibol> hola?
[04:13] <livingdaylight> Antipeibol, !es
[04:13] <Myrtti> *yawn*
[04:13] <novato_br> are you say my networking configuration file should be eth0 or ath0 ?
[04:13] <Gasten> predaeus: nothing in dmesg, and either syslog and xlog doesn't exist.
[04:13] <boojah> i need some help.. im trying to get the nvidia beta driver (100.14.06) to work.. but i miss the nvidia-kernel-module. I have the kernel module for the 9755 driver.. how do i get the one i need?
[04:13] <Antipeibol> como entro?

[04:13] <novato_br> ok
[04:13] <wols> boojah: boojah what videocard do you have?
[04:13] <boojah> 8800 gts
[04:13] <n2diy> I have an IBM Thinkpad 760xd, which won't boot from the cd, any ideas how to install Dapper on it?
[04:13] <spawn311> dr_willis: what the problem? the printer?
[04:13] <wols> boojah: the driver you got from nvidia comes witht he kernel module. but you need to compile it
[04:14] <spawn311> or was it the web browser
[04:14] <predaeus> Gasten, hm weird, well if you changed nothing try to restart X or so with "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart".
[04:14] <wols> boojah: and 97.55 will work fine for you
[04:14] <Gasten> predaeus: ok
[04:14] <dr_willis> spawn311,   i saw the other day - the system was defaulting to the larger a4 paper by default on my printers. I had to change it to US legal for me.
[04:14] <boojah> ok... but i only have the binary..
[04:14] <predaeus> Gasten, this will bring down your irc client or course
[04:14] <thirdy> Desktop menu won't show up
[04:14] <Gasten> predaeus: yes.
[04:14] <thirdy> pls help
[04:14] <boojah> 9755 works.. but i have a bug
[04:14] <boojah> want to test the beta
[04:14] <thirdy> I'm using xfce
[04:14] <novato_br> wols, thx you
[04:14] <Gasten> predaeus: Will alt+ctr+bckspace work aswell?
[04:14] <spawn311> dr_willis: after u change the from a4 to letter did everything print correctly?
[04:15] <predaeus> Gasten, it is not recommended, I think the other method respects lock files more and so on.
[04:15] <Gasten> predaeus: ok.
[04:15] <boojah> how do i compile the right kernel-module?
[04:15] <boojah> don't i need the source then?
[04:16] <dr_willis> spawn311,  i think so. havent noticed the issue since.
[04:16] <whonicca> for some reason i cant enable the nvidia drivers via the restricted drivers applet, this is a clean install of ubuntu, http://pastebin.ca/531368 is my xorg.conf, and heres a screenshot of the applet  http://www.zshare.net/image/2113595d0e0d41/ , can someone please help me out
[04:16] <dr_willis> spawn311,  but i got so many networked pc's and printers. i cant be sure. :) ive had many other printing issues with web sites and brpwsers. but not seen thatissue recently
[04:16] <fivetwentysix> gtkmm/accelgroup.h: No such file or directory
[04:16] <spawn311> dr_willis: which web browser were you printing from? firefox?
[04:16] <fivetwentysix> gtkmm/window.h: No surhc file or directory
[04:16] <Luxurious> Hi guys.
[04:16] <fivetwentysix> Is there anything else I need to install?
[04:17] <wols> fivetwentysix: gtkmm-dev package I guess
[04:17] <wols> !info gtkmm-dev
[04:17] <Aerotwelve> How do I stop an apt process?
[04:17] <dr_willis> spawn311,  mainly firefox.. but on different machines and os's
[04:17] <ubotu> Package gtkmm-dev does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:17] <fivetwentysix> E: Couldn't find package gtkmm-dev
[04:17] <predaeus> whonicca, this is definitely a bug. you could install the drivers yourself. I think you need nvidia-glx and restricted-drivers... packages for that. then change the "nv" in the xorg.conf drivers section (make backup of xorg.conf first) to "nvidia"
[04:17] <Luxurious> I was wondering, do you guys know a solution that would allow you to remotely control a music library for Ubuntu.  The thing is I want my computer to act as a library for my music and play it upon request remotely (it's connected to an amplifier and speakers).
[04:17] <whonicca> predaeus, thank you
[04:18] <fivetwentysix> libgtkmm-dev?
[04:18] <wols> fivetwentysix: packages.ubuntu.com
[04:18] <Gasten> predaeus: it seems to work now. thanks!
[04:18] <nox-Hand>                         vmware, and run xp that way! good idea?
[04:18] <nox-Hand> 06:51 -!- nodar<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has quit ["Quitte"]
[04:18] <nox-Hand> 06:51 -!- linuxor<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has joined #ubuntu
[04:18] <nox-Hand> 06:52 -!- linuxor<EMAIL_ADDRESS>has left #ubuntu ["Leaving"]
[04:18] <nox-Hand> 06:52 < dr_willis> Aerotwelve,  theres several packages that  will get [07:18]  [nox-Hand(+ei)]  [8:#ubuntu(+Lcfntz #ubuntu [Act: 2,3,4,5,7,9,10,12,13]
[04:18] <nox-Hand> [#ubuntu]
[04:18] <nox-Hand> wtf o_o
[04:18] <predaeus> whonicca, then you just reboot to load the drivers. should work but sometimes something messes up. then just edit xorg.conf and change it back to "nv" again to use the old drivers to fix the problem.
[04:18] <dr_willis> heh
[04:18] <nox-Hand> Sorry to everyone.. ***goes to hide***
[04:18] <spawn311> dr_willis: do u know of good web browser that is non-mozilla (aka not firefox) based so I can see if that is the issue or not?
[04:18] <Panda200x> Opera?
[04:18] <Trynemjoel> no worries nox-Hand  :P
[04:18] <dr_willis> spawn311,  could go try opera
[04:18] <wols> spawn311: konqueror?
[04:18] <Aerotwelve> Konquer?
[04:19] <spawn311> ok thanks guys
[04:19] <dr_willis> spawn311,  but i recall other odd printing issuesd with it ages ago.
[04:19] <dr_willis> Then again - printing anything these days from a web site - often has issues it seems :(
[04:19] <spawn311> can't knock until u try it
[04:19] <Aerotwelve> Does anyone here know how do stop an ongoing apt process?
[04:19] <predaeus> whonicca, so you will at least be able to surf the web looking for solutions or joining this irc channel. the nv drivers stay on you system if you do not remove them. good as a backup solution.
[04:19] <wols> Aerotwelve: kill
[04:19] <predaeus> Gasten, ok, nice. but still weird.
[04:20] <Allex> Hi everyone
[04:20] <Aerotwelve> wols: My command line says: "26% [Connecting to us.archive.ubuntu.com] " and I can't type anything in. Is there any sort of key command?
[04:20] <wols> Aerotwelve: ctrl+c perhaps. or just kill apt-get
[04:20] <dr_willis> Aerotwelve,  sounds to me like its downloading stuff from the server and taking its time.
[04:20] <Gasten> predaeus: Yes. Never happened before. I haven't even been messing with my configs lately. and the computer have worked fine the past 6 hours :/
[04:20] <Allex> does anyone know how to ad Widgets with beryl?
[04:21] <wols> !effects | Allex
[04:21] <ubotu> Allex: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects.
[04:21] <Allex> tnx
[04:21] <Aerotwelve> dr_willis: Hmm, They're all getting resolve errors, though, so I assumed it was nothing.
[04:21] <predaeus> Gasten, hm yes. nice thing with linux is that you can just restart the X server instead of rebooting the whole machine.
[04:22] <Gasten> predaeus: Yes. saves time :)
[04:22] <dr_willis> Aerotwelve,  that sounds like  networking is not confgured right then
[04:22] <borivali> I need help configuring the resolution of login screen
[04:22] <Panda200x> Can someone help me get DWL-G520+ Drivers for  the Live CD (or help me get wifi working.)
[04:23] <wols> Panda200x: what chip does that card use?
[04:23] <al_islam> hi
[04:23] <Panda200x> i ran lspci, so I got this http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/2546/chipsetnq7.png
[04:23] <al_islam> hi
[04:23] <al_islam> hi
[04:23] <Panda200x> :P Kinda new to linux and Konsole
[04:23] <al_islam> hi
[04:23] <al_islam> hi
[04:23] <Panda200x> Hello
[04:23] <predaeus> borivali, I think it should be the same as your desktop's resolution. if the wallpaper of the login theme does not fit, you probably need another theme or need to edit it.
[04:23] <al_islam> how are yoy???
[04:24] <Panda200x> dunno
[04:24] <borivali> how do I do that
[04:24] <al_islam> are you english??
[04:24] <roryy> al_islam: if you want to just chat, please join #ubuntu-offtopic ; this channel is for ubuntu support
[04:24] <Panda200x> I speak english
[04:24] <Panda200x> :P
[04:24] <predaeus> borivali, what login screen do you mean? the gdm/kdm login?
[04:24] <al_islam> oh very good??
[04:24] <wols> Panda200x: you need to download the acx driver, compile and install it. get the firmware to /lib/firmware/ and from then on it's like any other wlan
[04:25] <Panda200x> Cheers :D
[04:25] <al_islam> im arabic put i learn english
[04:25] <predaeus> borivali, I mean, the gnome or kde login screens, right?
[04:25] <borivali> yes I think so - its the one that I have to type in my name and passwd
[04:25] <al_islam> from where are you
[04:25] <Panda200x> #ubuntu-offtopic for talking
[04:25] <Panda200x> ;)
[04:25] <borivali>  I had changed the resolution for desktop but why does it not change for the login as well
[04:26] <al_islam> panda200x
[04:26] <wols> !ot | al_islam
[04:26] <ubotu> al_islam: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:26] <predaeus> borivali, yes, if you have e.g. a widescreen monitor it might be stretched or so. depends on the theme. look at art.gnome.org  and gnome-look.org for gdm (gnome login) themes
[04:26] <borivali> then?
[04:26] <predaeus> borivali, you can install them just by dragging the downloaded package onto the gdm login manager window
[04:26] <al_islam> how are you ubtou
[04:27] <predaeus> borivali, the settings application, not sure what exactly it was called, just drag the theme file (whole package) onto that to install.
[04:27] <ziroday> ubotu is a bot
[04:27] <ubotu> Yes, I can confirm that I am a bot. http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots for all information.
[04:27] <borivali> is there no way to keep this login theme
[04:27] <Cockroach> anybody know about mdadm?
[04:27] <wols> !anyone | Cockroach
[04:27] <ubotu> Cockroach: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:27] <Cockroach> yep sorry
[04:27] <wols> Panda200x: do not randomly /msg people. /ignore Panda200x
[04:28] <Panda200x> :/ ok
[04:28] <predaeus> borivali, not sure. you could look for where it is installed then check it's config files and probably also resize the background image to your liking.
[04:28] <low_on_ram> stefg, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB  exactly what I wanted
[04:28] <Cockroach> why do i get this when trying to grow a raid mdadm: Need to backup 5376K of critical section..
[04:28] <pietro10> Hello, anyone there?
[04:28] <LjL> no
[04:28] <Enselic_> !ftp
[04:28] <borivali> In system-->preferences-->screen resolution wont it change using this ?
[04:28] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[04:29] <Enselic_> !Nautilus
[04:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nautilus - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:29] <borivali> I have Ubuntu 7.04
[04:29] <predaeus> borivali, yes, but this will also change your desktops resolution then
[04:29] <Cockroach> and then this comes up "mdadm: Cannot set device size/shape for /dev/md1: Invalid argument" how do i solve this?
[04:29] <stefg> low_on_ram: yeah, that's what i menat. But you still need a custom-CD which will enable you to boot the OS from an USB stick, if you can't boot directly
[04:30] <low_on_ram> stefg, will this not help me? http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Making-a-GRUB-bootable-CD-ROM.html
[04:30] <m`kay> Hi guys.
[04:30] <borivali> I had done this thng but the login screen resolution did not change only the desktop resolution changed
[04:30] <predaeus> borivali, if you are interested you could look at http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/GDM and http://live.gnome.org/GnomeArt/Tutorials/GdmThemes to see how a gdm theme basically is made up and how it works.
[04:30] <m`kay> is 1.2.4 planned for feisty?
[04:30] <m`kay> is wesnoth 1.2.4 planned for feisty?
[04:31] <predaeus> borivali, hm I think it should use the same setting not sure though. It must use the xorg.conf setting though.
[04:31] <predaeus> borivali, typically the desktop and the login window both use the same as far as I know.
[04:31] <borivali> where is that file? xorg.conf
[04:31] <borivali> I would think so too
[04:31] <fivetwentysix> Hmm
[04:32] <jrib> m`kay: it should get synced from debian
[04:32] <stefg> low_on_ram: yeah, that's the right howto... but watch out how your menu.lst looks. there might be different device names according to how grub from CD sees the stick (if he's able to) and how grub on the USB stick would see it.
[04:32] <jrib> m`kay: it should get synced from debian (for gutsy)
[04:32] <Cockroach> no one can help with mdadm?
[04:32] <fivetwentysix> I can't seem to find a package that has the gtkmm files
[04:32] <m`kay> jrib for gutsy, but not for feisty?
[04:32] <fivetwentysix> Needed tocompilea GTKproject
[04:32] <borivali> Let me see if I can find xorg.conf and edit it
[04:32] <madsporkmurderer> does anyone know the correct NAT settings for qtorrent? I cant find mention of them anywhere but from the perfomance it appears that some are needed
[04:32] <jrib> m`kay: feisty is frozen, no more new packages.  Once it gets into gutsy, it may be backported
[04:32] <jrib> !backports > m`kay (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:32] <predaeus> borivali, be careful with that. make a backup of it before you edit it, because if you do it wrong your graphical desktop will not load on start and you will have to fix it in text mode. it is located at /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:33] <low_on_ram> stefg, grr! This is my first time messing around with linux at this low level.
[04:33] <low_on_ram> stefg, I will see how it goes. If it works, I will send you a message :)_
[04:33] <m`kay> jrib or can i install the wesnoth-gutsy-packages in feisty? frozen, there comes FF204 by updating :-/
[04:34] <stefg> low_on_ram: yeah, but on the other hand: you can use a broken machine for something useful. no way of getting any more work done with it on win
[04:34] <predaeus> borivali, to check if the settings work, you do not need to reboot, just restart the graphical front end (the "X server") with "sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart"
[04:34] <rebrai> wow
[04:34] <reddos> non riesco ad entrare nella chat ubunti it
[04:35] <jrib> m`kay: you shouldn't, but you can try to recompile the gutsy package (add the deb-src line and use apt-get -b)
[04:35] <low_on_ram> stefg, in the grub console I typed root (hd0,0) and then find / . I got "possible files are: vmlinuz initrd.gz xubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.sio
[04:35] <jwtodd> hey ... i'd like to do a fresh install of feisty as i move from edgy. is there a way i can export the apt config stuff so that i can just feed the config to the new system? i use synaptic. thx.
[04:35] <Tsuamia> How can I change my res without using my mouse?
[04:35] <Tsuamia> terminal?
[04:35] <low_on_ram> stefg, I am assuming that it is the cdr drive.
[04:35] <fivetwentysix> What package contains <gtkmm/accelgroup.h>
[04:35] <Myrtti> jwtodd: dpkg --get-selections > packages
[04:35] <rebrai> wow its pretty alive in here
[04:35] <low_on_ram> Tsuamia, a long time back I used to use Ctrl+Alt+Numpad +
[04:35] <jwtodd> excellent. much appreciated :)
[04:36] <low_on_ram> Tsuamia, I am not sure if it works even now.
[04:36] <stefg> low_on_ram: if there's no hd no more thenit sounds plausible
[04:36] <roryy> fivetwentysix: packages.ubuntu.com lets you search for what package has what file
[04:36] <jwtodd> myrtti ... and on the import side?
[04:36] <low_on_ram> stefg, then where is the USB stick? I actually formatted it using fdisk (it was mounted on /dev/sda). I cannot see it on grub list
[04:36] <Tsuamia> low_on_ram: Thank you so much
[04:37] <rebrai> are there any graphical extension like beryl? how can i install them?
[04:37] <eldunco> Does ubuntu server come with a window manager preinstalled? If so which one and how to start it.
[04:38] <jrib> !beryl > rebrai (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:38] <txolox> hola
[04:38] <jrib> eldunco: no
[04:38] <wols> eldunco: no
[04:38] <eldunco> k
[04:38] <madsporkmurderer> does anyone know the correct NAT settings for qtorrent? I cant find mention of them anywhere but from the perfomance it appears that some are needed
[04:38] <wols> eldunco: you need to apt-get X
[04:38] <Myrtti> jwtodd: when you're done, you do dpkg --set-selections < packages and...
[04:38] <Myrtti> jwtodd: (I'm looking over my notes)
[04:38] <fivetwentysix> Thanks roryy for pointing that function out!
[04:38] <qtgeo> a big bravo to the developing team and all the staff for the realease 7.04
[04:38] <eldunco> sounds good, i appreciate it
[04:38] <wols> madsporkmurderer: depends what port you use for incoming. it's variable
[04:38] <jwtodd> much appreciated
[04:39] <Myrtti> jwtodd: apt-get -u dselect-upgrade should do the trick
[04:39] <madsporkmurderer> wols: i cant find any settings to change in relation to ports- are they in a config file somewhere?
[04:39] <jwtodd> excellent myrtti!!!
[04:39] <jwtodd> thx again.
[04:39] <wols> madsporkmurderer: I dunno. netstat -anp |grep LIST |less
[04:39] <wols> madsporkmurderer: as root
[04:40] <jwtodd> hope to see you all again on the "feisty side" of life :)
[04:40] <Cockroach> how do i upgrade my kernel?
[04:40] <Aerotwelve> Hey everyone: I'm trying to install these restricted ATI drivers, and one of my steps was to Make sure fgrlx is not disabled with: gksudo gedit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common and I get an error that says GTK WARNING **: cannot open display: Does this mean it's disabled?
[04:40] <wols> Aerotwelve: no it means gedit cannot run
[04:40] <prekker> hi
[04:40] <wols> Cockroach: apt-get a new one
[04:40] <Aerotwelve> wols: Alright, thanks.
[04:41] <m`kay> is there an versionless unstable brunch for ubuntu like debian sid?
[04:41] <wols> Aerotwelve: sudo nano <file> instead
[04:41] <Cockroach> wols: what should i choose? it's for a P4 server
[04:41] <wols> m`kay: there is gutsy. ubuntu+1
[04:41] <wols> Cockroach: -686

[04:42] <rebrai> no only english
[04:43] <piratepenguin> if I'm on ubuntu using gnome, and I want KDE too, can I just install kubuntu-desktop?
[04:43] <madsporkmurderer> wols: yes, im currently seeding 2 torrents
[04:43] <CaLeRo> ok
[04:43] <Myrtti> piratepenguin: yes
[04:43] <wols> madsporkmurderer: then it will show
[04:43] <dr_willis> piratepenguin,  thats how i do it.
[04:43] <piratepenguin> Myrtti: cheers
[04:43] <piratepenguin> ah cool

[04:44] <dr_willis> Hmm thats not it. aplay perhaps?
[04:44] <stefg> low_on_ram: (was on the phone) hmmm, so your bios won't recognize the usb-port it seems. that means taht you have to boot the kernel from CD to be able to mount the USb stick as root-fs
[04:44] <wersdaluv> is it possible for me to install xubuntu over ubuntu without changing the black loading screen?
[04:44] <dr_willis> of course it may depends on the specific kind of audio file
[04:44] <Luxurious> Aplay you say?
[04:44] <dr_willis> !info aplay
[04:45] <ubotu> Package aplay does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:45] <dr_willis> Luxurious,  used tobe oodles of console based sound player/tools - but not used themin years
[04:45] <stefg> low_on_ram: that gets more and more ugly... no way of attching it to a net and using it as a netbooting thin-client?
[04:45] <fivetwentysix> Ok I don't get it
[04:45] <larson9999> i recently upgraded and now mplayer halts when i swap windows instead of keeping playing like it used to.  is there a setting for that?
[04:45] <low_on_ram> stefg, I do not want to get the network running on this system as yet.
[04:45] <Trubbis> anyone knows how to install winxp after ubuntu? it stops in booting of winxp-install-disk and refuses to do anything....
[04:45] <fivetwentysix> Why won't my compiler find gtkmm/accelgroup.h
[04:45] <fivetwentysix> I've installed every package that contains that file
[04:46] <fivetwentysix> BUt my compiler still says it's not found
[04:46] <Luxurious> dr_willis, well, I'm actually going to write a web interface for a music server (to play the music on the server), I'm not quite sure system command line calls are the way, but better to explore it than not.
[04:46] <wols> Trubbis: wrong channel. #windows
[04:46] <madsporkmurderer> wols: right, found it- it was listed under python
[04:46] <wols> fivetwentysix: where on your system is the file? and is it in your g++ include path?
[04:46] <Trubbis> wols, na, dont think they would know, windows is windows....
[04:46] <madsporkmurderer> wols: is the port number the one after LISTENING
[04:46] <froggy_> hello i have a problem
[04:46] <wols> Trubbis: irrelevant. It's OT here
[04:46] <low_on_ram> stefg, I want it to just boot into linux that I want to install on a USB pen drive. Ofcourse since hte USB drive won't directly boot, I need the cdr drive to initiall boot up and then "hand over" the booting to the USB pen drive
[04:46] <wols> madsporkmurderer: no
[04:47] <stefg> low_on_ram: see, you have to boot the kernel from CD-Rom, that means your /boot is on a readonly partition. every kernle update will be trouble
[04:47] <Aerotwelve> Alright, it finally booted up. Thanks, dr_willis and everyone else. Any chance I will be able to use open source ati drivers in the future, so Ubuntu can upgrade them like all others?
[04:47] <froggy_> ubuntu start one time yes and 3 no i have intel 945gm chipset video
[04:47] <Trubbis> wols, its not ot on most linux-forums so i cant see why it would be here?!
[04:47] <madsporkmurderer> wols: the on after that one then?
[04:47] <low_on_ram> stefg, why would I want a kernel update?
[04:47] <low_on_ram> stefg, by kernel update you mean when new versions of kernel are released right? Sort of upgrading right?
[04:47] <wols> Trubbis: cause this is a ubuntu only forum. not for windows
[04:47] <stefg> low_on_ram: because  there is one? because of security patches

[04:48] <low_on_ram> stefg, that is true. but this one will never be on the network and hanging on the wall. No network, no keyboard just a display :D
[04:48] <Trubbis> wols, I have to do something IN ubuntu to make it posible to install windows later
[04:48] <Luxurious> I like that!
[04:48] <stefg> low_on_ram: rather look into smart boot-manager. this is sort of a bios extension which possibly enables you to boot the real McCoy from USB
[04:49] <low_on_ram> stefg, I will check the smart boot manager then
[04:49] <fivetwentysix> wols: /usr/include/gtkmm-2.0/gtkmm/accellabel.h I have 2.4 installed as well
[04:49] <froggy_> ??

[04:50] <andrewmac> What is the best MSN client ? Pidgin is really pissing me off, it randomly closes :S in the middle of conversations..
[04:50] <fivetwentysix> andrewmac: Try Gaim.
[04:50] <andrewmac> ..
[04:50] <andrewmac> GAIM == Pidgin
[04:51] <Myrtti> no, it's not
[04:51] <Watermelon2> hmm amsn?
[04:51] <mneptok> andrewmac: you can try aMSN
[04:51] <wols> fivetwentysix: is  /usr/include/gtkmm-2.0/gtkmm/
[04:51] <wols> is  /usr/include/gtkmm-2.0/gtkmm/ in your include path?
[04:52] <fivetwentysix> How do i see my include paths?
[04:52] <wols> Trubbis: is enough unallocated harddisk space available?
[04:52] <wols> fivetwentysix: depends how you set them
[04:52] <wols> there are several ways. one way is to look at the commandline of g++
[04:52] <Trubbis> wols, yes, i can install win2003server but not xp
[04:52] <rab1d> anyone have any problems with the latest updates breaking firefox
[04:52] <wols> Trubbis: then you can do thing. not a ubuntu problem
[04:53] <wols> *nothing
[04:53] <ROnewbie> Anyone ? RT61 wi-fi card installed, drivers too, network manager sees all my wireless network, but it won't connect to any of them, encrypted or not.
[04:53] <ROnewbie> *networks
[04:53] <Trubbis> wols, partly, ubuntu puts grub in mbr and thats wat causing problem for xp, 2003server is little more accepting on that part
[04:54] <black_> following problem, i can boot with root being on raid 5, and i can boot if root is luks encrypted .... but i cant boot if i try both
[04:54] <wols> Trubbis: no. XP just overwrites grub on install
[04:54] <c01100011> is there an all in one blue tooth management gui application
[04:55] <Trubbis> wols, yea, normally, but in my case (not for a friend of mine for whom it works) winxp wont boot the installation, it hangs on "checking hardware configuration".
[04:55] <fivetwentysix> wols is there a way to set it in Anjuta?

[04:55] <wols> fivetwentysix: project settings usually
[04:55] <Trubbis> wols, so winxp cant accept the grub in mbr and therefore im stuck

[04:57] <Fawa1> can anyone help
[04:57] <matthew> Hey all. I have a Feisty installation on a drive, but no grub installed. Is there a way to boot that installation with a LiveCD or something?

[04:59] <low_on_ram> stefg, that's funny. when I do root (hd0,0) and then find /<tab> it lists vmliuz initrd.gz xubunutu....iso ... what could this partition be? It cannot be the CDR drive, can it"?
[04:59] <wols> low_on_ram: hd0,0 is first partitn, first disk
[04:59] <low_on_ram> wols, I do not have a HDD
[04:59] <stefg> low_on_ram: no... possibly it is the wanted usb?
[04:59] <low_on_ram> *an
[04:59] <wols> low_on_ram: if you boot from usb, you do
[04:59] <wols> low_on_ram: your usb stick
[05:00] <low_on_ram> stefg, then how did those files get onto the USB stick? I did not copy them. I did not boot up from the USB stick either.
[05:00] <low_on_ram> hmm
[05:00] <Fawa1> when starting X server i get "could not open default font" error
[05:00] <stefg> low_on_ram: i don't know what CD you are using to get grub now..

[05:03] <c01100011> great, i got my blue tooth mouse to work with ease, but is there a gui to manage connecting to bluetooth devices?
[05:03] <low_on_ram> stefg, wait, how come then I could format /dev/sda1/2 ? They could not be CDR partitions because it was explicitly marked as FAt16 in fdisk. Will check it out.

[05:07] <low_on_ram> stefg, got it! Thanks for that. I was getting messed up in my mind about this. Damn! Then I would have to actually boot a kernel from the CDR drive. OMG! I also have to put the modules on the CD.
[05:07] <mh_le> wols: yeah, I just can't tell where the error is..
[05:07] <Nom-> The scrollwheel works fine, but no thumb buttons

[05:08] <fivetwentysix> I feel like the configs are totally screwed up
[05:08] <wols> mh_le: bigger chance than getting one here. have you pasted your master.cf there?

[05:08] <mh_le> wols: yeah
[05:08] <wols> fivetwentysix: you isntalled with apt? then no

[05:24] <marco_linux> ?
[05:24] <stefg> low_on_ram: i just read that SBM is incapable of handling USB devices... bad luck. So your options are: 1.) update bios to a version which can boot fro usb, 2.) have a really ugly custom boot CD which boots the kernel and initramfs, then mounts the flash drive as root-fs. 3.) fixing the ide connector (possible to attach a IDE flash drive to it)

[05:28] <low_on_ram> stefg, I was reading the same thing and I guess I am cluster fscked. 1) - NEC does not update the bios for this laptop anymore. 3) IDE connector is broken on the mobo. The only way I can think of fixing it is by soldering those tiny .5mm leads. No way can I do that.
[05:28] <low_on_ram> stefg, so the only option left for me is to make a custom CD R
[05:29] <low_on_ram> stefg, any pointers on how to make this CD?
[05:29] <henrysotocalaboz> hello everybody...from Venezuela
[05:29] <Wisdom07> hello
[05:29] <low_on_ram> henrysotocalaboz, no hello to people NOT from Venezuela? hehe!
[05:29] <neonleon8> hello to Venezuela
[05:29] <henrysotocalaboz> hello neon....How are you???
[05:30] <Wisdom07> when i tried to configure my dsl connexion its asked me to turn to root so howi could do that ?
[05:30] <neonleon8> i'm pretty good. thanks, how about yourself?
[05:30] <henrysotocalaboz> well, just learning this new program... It's my first time... Where are you from???
[05:30] <marco_linux> Hi people, the error is still there: Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)
[05:31] <stefg> low_on_ram: do a normal alternate xubuntu install, then take the USB stick to another machine (which reads ext3) and make a bootable CD like the previous howto said, but copy the complete /boot dir from the usb-drive to the CD, too
[05:31] <wols> Wisdom07: with sudp
[05:31] <neonleon8> can you force and unmount of the device ?
[05:31] <phlak_user> hi
[05:31] <wols> Wisdom07: sudo
[05:31] <lashus> wols
[05:31] <lashus> pm
[05:31] <Wisdom07> wols i'im newbie so i should write in the terminal sudo?
[05:32] <lashus> yup
[05:32] <stefg> low_on_ram: and ho we already found out grub sees the CD as (hd0) so adjust the menu.lst accordingly
[05:32] <wols> lashus: do not /msg people randomly. /ignore lashus
[05:32] <lashus> wols rotfl <wols> lashus: what error do you get when trying to install something?
[05:32] <henrysotocalaboz> well I'm leaving now...hope you feel good!!!!!
[05:33] <lashus> i asked on pm
[05:33] <henrysotocalaboz> byr
[05:33] <henrysotocalaboz> bye
[05:33] <Wisdom07> wols
[05:33] <lashus> umm nevermind
[05:33] <lashus> bb
[05:33] <marco_linux> It worked now but only after umount as root. Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)
[05:34] <neonleon8> i feel good
[05:34] <marco_linux> Why Ubuntu is like that?
[05:34] <phlak_user> im haveing problems running Google Earth on Edgy Eft (ATI Radeon Graphics)
[05:34] <Kalisto> why does pam drop root priv on pam_mount on exit? ie therefor no unmount can be done.
[05:34] <marco_linux> Just to copy a CD you have to have root access
[05:35] <Kalisto> marco_linux, google it
[05:35] <henrysotocalaboz> how can i do with the G++
[05:35] <wols> henrysotocalaboz: do what?
[05:35] <henrysotocalaboz> help
[05:35] <Kalisto> gcc?
[05:35] <low_on_ram> henrysotocalaboz, what is your question?
[05:35] <henrysotocalaboz> How can I compiler the G++
[05:36] <faight> "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon" < --- how do i fix? thanks
[05:36] <marco_linux> but this was supposed to work out of the box.  Copying CDs is a very simple task.
[05:36] <phlak_user> he wants to install the g++ package
[05:36] <Kalisto> henrysotocalaboz, google gcc
[05:36] <low_on_ram> henrysotocalaboz, do you have ubuntu up and running?
[05:36] <wols> henrysotocalaboz: install build-essnetial
[05:36] <rab1d> any suggestions for a firefox that starts up and immediately core dumps
[05:36] <henrysotocalaboz> yes it is running
[05:36] <wols> henrysotocalaboz: install build essential
[05:36] <wols> rab1d: rn it from an xterm
[05:36] <wols> *run
[05:36] <Kalisto> rab1d, reinstall or install from source
[05:37] <henrysotocalaboz> is it the essential in the ubuntu's cd??
[05:37] <rab1d> wols: from xterm, thats where i know its core-dumping
[05:37] <henrysotocalaboz> how can I get it?
[05:37] <Aerotwelve1> Hey everyone, if I running Gnome, and I using KDE apps, will that harm anything? I just installed Ubuntu, and I using Konversation to type this, and realized it is a KDE app.
[05:37] <elhyte> Hello
[05:37] <rab1d> Kalisto: reinstall, i tried apt-get remove followed by apt-get install
[05:37] <rab1d> on the pacakge firefox
[05:37] <elhyte> I have a problem witgh liferea
[05:37] <Wisdom07> i'm new bie and  when i tried to configure pppoecon its aske dme to turn in root session so how?
[05:37] <Kalisto> Aerotwelve, no problem
[05:37] <elhyte> liferea-add-feed doesn't work on Firefox
[05:37] <Juhaz> Aerotwelve1, no, it doesn't harm anything, but it will use bit more memory to have both sets of libraries running at the same time
[05:38] <RainCT> Hi
[05:38] <pmo> hey, i have a problem with my sound-drivers i think, when i plug in my headphones, the sound works fine, but the sound doesnt mute from the speakers.. im on a HP DV* laptop with ubuntu 7.04.
[05:38] <RainCT> is it possible to have wvdial not overwritting resolv.conf?
[05:38] <dabobo> hey
[05:38] <Wisdom07> i'm new bie and  when i tried to configure pppoecon its aske dme to turn in root session so how?
[05:38] <wols> RainCT: chattr +i it
[05:39] <wols> Wisdom07: sudo
[05:39] <Aerotwelve1> Alright, thanks, juhaz and Kalisto. Anyway, as I said, I on a new install. Everything seems to work out of the box besides wireless and my apostrophe key. When I try to type an apostrophe, I get a system beep and sometimes I get this character: .  Any thoughts on how to change this?
[05:39] <dabobo> i'm a newbie and I don't know what this is
[05:39] <fdr> I'm afraid I deleted some system file I shouldn't have... is there a way to check for every installed package if all the included files are still present on the filesystem? thanks!
[05:39] <thornomad> Quick Question: is there an easy way to send e-mail from the command line?  I have looked at mailutils and nail ... however, these seems like overkill.  I just want my cron jobs to email me on occasion ... I don't EVER need to recieve mail at all ... any ideas ? thanks
[05:39] <wols> thornomad: man mail
[05:40] <RainCT> wols: can you explain this please?
[05:40] <elhyte> Nobody uses liferea with firefox ?
[05:40] <hocmin> I've got a printer installed through Gnome's interface, but I'm not able to print to it through firefox.  How can I fix this?
[05:40] <wols> RainCT: man chattr
[05:40] <fdr> I was thinking of some dpkg or apt option but I can't find it...
[05:40] <ziosa> hi, i have a problem with configure matrox mga g200...help me!
[05:40] <thornomad> wols: that isn't installed on the server by default ... i only know how to do it via mailutils ... which install exim4 ... which I don't want
[05:40] <RainCT> wols: ok thanks
[05:41] <marco_linux> Can't copy CDs with Ubuntu. Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)
[05:41] <wols> thornomad: a unix system without mda or mta is broken
[05:41] <elhyte> Please, nobody uses Liferea ?
[05:41] <wols> marco_linux: is your cd /dev/hda?

[05:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about anyobody - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:42] <wols> !anybody | elhyte
[05:42] <ubotu> elhyte: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[05:42] <pomalley> i just added 2 gigs of ram to my computer and now ubuntu is running comically slowly. is this a known problem or am i going to have to do some research?
[05:42] <thornomad> wols: hmm ... okay ... I may be lost.  I don't know anything about mda or mta.  I have successfully used mail and nail ... however, was just trying to find something simpler
[05:42] <trenq> hi guys anyone know if I can use my sonyericsson k800 as modem for my ubuntu laptop?
[05:43] <bbrazil> pomalley: research I'd say. Howmuch ram do you have total, what's your arch, and what's your workload?
[05:43] <wols> thornomad: there are simpler, leander mtas than exim. but exim is very easy to use
[05:43] <thornomad> wols ... all right, maybe i will just look into disabling its port listening stuff for exim
[05:43] <Aerotwelve1> Does anyone know why Ubuntu refuses to type a comma?  Any thoughts?
[05:44] <rab1d> kalisto: doing an apt-get remove firefox followed by apt-get install firefox, is what you meant by reinstall
[05:44] <rab1d> ?
[05:44] <pomalley> bbrazil: yeah, that's what i was afraid of. i have 4gb total now, just running feisty x86 (not 64 bit) and this is with no workload (just on boot, and starting gnome)
[05:44] <wols> thornomad: apt-cache search mda. apt-cache search mta
[05:44] <erUSUL> rab1d: or adding --reinstall to the install command
[05:44] <bbrazil> pomalley: that's odd. you're on 686 or later I presume?
[05:44] <thornomad> wols: oh ... wow ... that is a lot of options.  okay, let me look through them thanks!
[05:45] <marco_linux> Can't copy CDs on Ubuntu. Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)
[05:45] <pomalley> bbrazil: whatever the default that it gives is
[05:45] <bbrazil> pomalley: I'm asking about your processor
[05:45] <elhyte> My first question was " I have a problem with Liferea and Firefox, liferea-add-feed doesn't work on it"
[05:45] <Przemcio78> ubuntu or vista? this is the question :)
[05:45] <elhyte> So sorry for my approximative question
[05:45] <Przemcio78> wrong place to pose such questions though :)
[05:45] <pomalley> bbrazil: oh, yeah, duh. pentium d 950, pretty good.
[05:45] <bbrazil> pomalley: is the new ram thesame spec as the existing stuff
[05:46] <faight> "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon" < --- how do i fix? thanks
[05:46] <wols> pomalley: a p4 is never good
[05:46] <pomalley> bbrazil: yeah, it's exactly the same as what i already had, just 2 more sticks
[05:46] <pomalley> wols: yeah, yeah, whatever ;-)
[05:46] <Kalisto> rab1d, yes
[05:46] <marco_linux> Can't copy Cds on Ubuntu Feisty. "Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)"
[05:46] <bbrazil> pomalley: what happens if you remove the old sticks?
[05:46] <xsnake> How can I find printer drivers for my Brother MFC8500 printer?

[05:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about patienc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:46] <rab1d> ok it looks like if i run firefox-bin (not the firefox scripty in /usr/lib/firefox) i get 'error while loading shared libraries: libmozjs.so'
[05:46] <wols> !printing
[05:46] <ubotu> Printing in Ubuntu is done with cups. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Printers - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsPrinters - http://linuxprinting.org - Printer sharing: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWindows
[05:47] <bbrazil> pomalley: and what happens when you remove the old sticks, and put the new sticks in their slots?
[05:47] <Luxurious> I installed apache2 but all it ever does is launch apache.  I even did apt-get remove apache, didn't say it existed.
[05:47] <pomalley> bbrazil: haven't tried that yet, i just booted once
[05:47] <elhyte> So if anybody have this problem ( liferea-add-feed doesn't work on Firefox) please call  the solution to me)
[05:47] <wols> rab1d: reinstall ffox then
[05:47] <Luxurious> That's Apache 1.3 it launches, by the way.
[05:47] <pomalley> bbrazil: xp works fine
[05:47] <bbrazil> pomalley: I'd also suggest measuring 'slower'
[05:47] <rab1d> wols: i did
[05:47] <bbrazil> pomalley: ram checks will naturally take more time, so allow for that
[05:47] <xsnake> ok, thanks
[05:48] <ompaul> pomalley, and xp will not stress test ram like other software
[05:48] <pomalley> bbrazil: haha ok. but i was even getting errors on various gnome startup things. (like gnome-settings daemon has failed to start, or whatever)
[05:48] <giany911> guys i have a 5.1 sound card and i can't control the volume ! .. i can only control the speakers separately ... front rear side
[05:48] <bbrazil> pomalley: that sounds like bad ram
[05:48] <bbrazil> pomalley: run memtest86, should be a boot option
[05:48] <wols> pomalley: and run it overnight
[05:48] <ompaul> bbrazil, it might not help - been there with that one
[05:49] <rab1d> wols: i reinstalled a couple different ways even removed my profile from my home directory, same problem
[05:49] <wols> rab1d: could be a bad plugin. did you run ffox from an xterm?
[05:50] <tmroland> hi

[05:53] <youshotwhointhew> hello i need help, my laptop has lost the networking at battery modules!
[05:53] <jrib> neuratix_: use a for loop:  for file in *; do some_command $file; done
[05:53] <neuratix_> thanks :)
[05:53] <eX|Joe> wols: ive already deleted the failed install directory.
[05:54] <eX|Joe> dont worry, i'll retract my question.
[05:54] <wols> eX|Joe: until you state a concise and exactl problem we can't help you

[05:57] <noobster> hi there. i'm experiencing problems after installing nvidia-glx-new -- it crashed X so i reverted to the old driver. now, i can't even use the old nvidia driver anymore. any experiences with this?
[05:57] <crdlb> noobster, yes you need to remove a hidden file to make nvidia-glx work again
[05:57] <youshotwhointhew> can i restore the DSDT from the install disk?
[05:57] <youshotwhointhew> anyone??
[05:57] <noobster> crdlb which one?
[05:57] <ScarFreewill> any1 know any howtos for kqemu for ubuntu?
[05:57] <crdlb> noobster, /lib/linux-restricted-modules/.nvidia_new_installed
[05:58] <noobster> crdlb thx, i'll give it a shot.
[05:58] <roland_> does anyone run diablo 1 with succes on cedega 6 ?
[05:58] <roland_> it keeps telling me to insert the cd
[05:58] <youshotwhointhew> does anyone here know what DSDT is???
[05:58] <noobster> crdlb do you know why there's a version conflict with nvidia-glx-new and the X server / kernel modules?
[05:59] <minerale> Hello, how do I disable the graphical startup thing, I don't think my video card supports it
[05:59] <lekker> starting up Ubuntu, i'm not getting any error messages, but come into a root-console, with I have to"exit" to go to the login screen,   how to login directly
[05:59] <ToiletDuk> minerale: if you want only text and disable GDM/X, edit the inittab
[05:59] <ToiletDuk> set to 3 instead of 5
[06:00] <roryy> ToiletDuk: that is not correct in ubuntu (or debian)
[06:00] <minerale> toiletduk: no, I'm talking about the ubuntu logo as it startups
[06:01] <erUSUL> minerale: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and get rid of the splash boot option in the entries you like
[06:01] <roland_> when i start ubuntu i see no bootscreen, no messages, no progress bar.. nothing.. its a black screen until i get in the login screen .. what can i do to fix this..
[06:01] <roland_> its videocard related
[06:02] <roryy> roland_: you could also try disabling the bootsplash (points to what erusul said)
[06:02] <youshotwhointhew> anyone with experience fixing a farked DSDT?
[06:02] <humbolto> Why is it, that I have no CPU frequency scaling with the generic kernel but with the i386 it works?

[06:05] <julius> I found a bug on Ubuntu. Does someone can try to reproduce it please ? :-)
[06:05] <Guy_> gm everyone.
[06:06] <giany911> ...dudes ..i need a bit of help, how can i delete the annoying Examples folder?
[06:06] <silvernode> lol\
[06:06] <silvernode> idk hide it heh i never tried to delete it
[06:06] <silvernode> now i want to get rid of it too
[06:07] <giany911> rolf
[06:07] <Guy_> Does anyone know if the version of 7.04 on the Dell offering is the 64 bit or 32 bit version?
[06:07] <giany911> rofl
[06:07] <giany911> i did it :))
[06:07] <giany911> sudo rm Examples
[06:07] <BlueEagle> giany911: "The dell offering"?
[06:07] <silvernode> dell is selling computers with ubuntu now
[06:08] <wols> giany911: sudo rm -rf Examples
[06:08] <giany911> i did it :)
[06:08] <silvernode> they just signed a contract with cononical
[06:08] <Guy_> Yup.  I have one on order and I am getting the Core 2 Duo  T7200 @ gig processor.
[06:08] <giany911> phew
[06:08] <wols> Guy_: 32
[06:08] <giany911> thanx
[06:08] <xcd> why do you have to sudo to do it ... the link is created under your username... and not root
[06:09] <Guy_> Hmm.  I may have to do something about that then.  Looks like time to download the 64 bit.  :)
[06:09] <silvernode> lol i just right clicked on examples folder and told it go to trash and it did lmao
[06:09] <wols> xcd: to make sure it deletes under any circumstances. we didn't know that
[06:09] <xcd> yeah
[06:09] <xcd> it's a symbolic link
[06:09] <Przemcio78> teletubbies are gay http://youtube.com/watch?v=U7XC-c70VyI
[06:09] <xcd> the real folder is in /usr/share/example-content
[06:09] <Guy_> I put together a system with the 2 gig processor and 2 gigs of ram.   Feisty has python-django-0.95. I noticed Gutsy has python-django-0.96. Can I install a Gutsy package in Feisty?
[06:12] <wols> speed and integrated graphics rarely mix
[06:12] <silvernode> Yeah i like having a good graphics card cuz then i can use beryl
[06:12] <kc5goi> I am not too interested in Beryl but it does look cool.
[06:12] <balarka> who
[06:12] <spikeb> beryl works fine with intel's integrated stuff.
[06:13] <LadySerena> BSD guru here, trying to make sense of linux ...... if all wired network devices are labeled "eth", how do you know which chipset each device uses?
[06:13] <BlueEagle> eddymul: In theory, yes. But you're unlikely to get support for it. You'll need to install python-django and gutsy from source me thinks.
[06:13] <silvernode> really?
[06:13] <BlueEagle> eddymul: If you're not comfortable compiling your own apps you might be off without gutsy or finding a substitute.
[06:13] <giany911> does any1 know how to see the names and no the ids in gaim/pidgin on yahoo?
[06:13] <wols> LadySerena: first loaded driver is first
[06:13] <balarka> WHO #gnome-chi | specialkevin
[06:13] <spikeb> silvernode: yeah. in fact, intel's onboard video stuff is among the best supported driver wise :)

[06:14] <silvernode> spikeb:yeah i bet since its widely used with so many new computers
[06:14] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: I'm (very) new to Ubuntu
[06:14] <LadySerena> dmesg is device log
[06:14] <kc5goi> Spikeb, that is one reason I am staying with the intel card.  I need serial ports so I get to learn how to deal with usb based serial port adapters.  I am not to worried about it.  Should be ease.
[06:14] <spikeb> silvernode: and the specs and drivers are open.
[06:14] <iuc> hello
[06:14] <LadySerena> seems rather counterintuitive, though
[06:14] <iuc> well i'm here for some help with ubuntu
[06:15] <Demolitio> I have a problem: I just clean-installed ubuntu, and have absolutly no sound when I test it in sound preferences.... the alsa service is enabled, and the volume is at max. most I was able to get was my speakers to pop when I selected/deselected the analog/digital switch option for my card (i'm using an Audigy 2 ZS). suggestions?
[06:15] <BlueEagle> eddymul: But are you familiar with linux in general and compiling packages in a unix system?
[06:15] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: I've had Gentoo before. ;)
[06:15] <iuc> can you install ubuntu if you only have one hard drive?
[06:15] <silvernode> spikeb:makes sense but i never tried a new PC with ubuntu yet im still runnin my 2004 amd 1.83ghz cpu and ati radeon 9600
[06:15] <iuc> AND have windows too
[06:15] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: I'm fine w/ compiling. But I'd prefer apt to take care of it for me
[06:15] <kc5goi> apt rocks.
[06:15] <BlueEagle> eddymul: Well if you learned anything from the emerges then you should be capable of replacing python-django and insall gutsy from source.
[06:15] <spikeb> silvernode: hehe
[06:16] <spikeb> silvernode: how does it work on that? :)
[06:16] <iuc> what, ubuntu?
[06:16] <perlmonkey> hello guys
[06:16] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: how do I install "gutsy" from source?
[06:16] <perlmonkey> i have joined ubuntu, just switched from debian
[06:16] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: I have a rough idea of how to install python-django from source...
[06:16] <iuc> (i'm a linux noob btw)
[06:16] <BlueEagle> eddymul: Well if there aren't any pre-buildt for you then compining is your only choice. You may find pre-buildt python-django for debian that might (stress MIGHT) work in ubuntu.
[06:17] <BlueEagle> eddymul: Then you probably might benefit from putting it off. :)
[06:17] <perlmonkey> the install went ok but my resolution is stuck at 800x600, (highest option i got in resolution settings) how do I change it higher?
[06:17] <silvernode> spikeb:everything works great but if i enable the restricted graphics driver beryl won't work anymore and all i can do is play wow which also freezes once i start running around for 10 secs
[06:17] <kc5goi> I have toyed with linux for 7 years.  So far I have been the most impressed with the way Ubuntu takes Debain and makes it so easy to work with.

[06:17] <perlmonkey> thank you BlueEagle
[06:17] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: Is it possible to add gutsy as an apt source when I'm running Feisty?
[06:17] <thirdy> I've installed KDE
[06:17] <spikeb> silvernode: consequence of having an ATI card rather than an older computer
[06:17] <iuc> ok ok so here's my question:  Is it possible to dual boot and/or install ubuntu on one hardrive on my laptop?
[06:17] <BlueEagle> eddymul: Hang on while I find out what Gutsy actually is. :)
[06:17] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: Gutsy = Feisty +1
[06:17] <radioaktivstorm> hey, anyone know why epiphany is being stubborn and refuses to remove my old expired personal certificate? can i remove it manually?
[06:18] <thirdy> how do I switch to KDE?
[06:18] <kc5goi> iuc, in theory yes but I have not done it.
[06:18] <silvernode> spikeb:you think it's that freezing WoW tho? Or couyld it be that the processor needs to be pushed a little more so it can handle stuff?
[06:18] <BlueEagle> eddymul: Then I would recomend two things: Ask in #ubuntu+1 and don't use it until it's stable.
[06:18] <iuc> thirdy: thanks alot
[06:18] <eddyMul> radioaktivstorm: epiphany-extensions might be the package you're looking for.
[06:18] <roryy> thirdy: when you login you can choose what type of desktop to use
[06:19] <spikeb> silvernode: probably also the issue with WoW as well.
[06:19] <BlueEagle> eddymul: Why would you want gutsy at this early stage anyways?
[06:19] <spikeb> silvernode: ATI cards have issues with wine/cedega
[06:19] <radioaktivstorm> thirdy, if you installed it kde , then you can log out and find it in the sessions menu on the login screen.
[06:19] <marco_linux> Can't copy Cds on Ubuntu Feisty. "Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)"
[06:19] <eddyMul> radioaktivstorm: it exposes a .... "certificate viewer".
[06:19] <Armageddon00> Anyone know how to change keyboard input to Cyrillic?
[06:19] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: for python-django-0.96
[06:19] <BlueEagle> eddymul: What do you need .96 for?
[06:20] <marco_linux> Can't copy Cds on Ubuntu Feisty. "Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)"
[06:20] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: for work.
[06:20] <radioaktivstorm> eddyMul, ive gotten the epiphany-extensions and added the certificate viewer, but when i use it to try and remove my old certificates, it simply comes up with a dialog that says ok cancel...both of which do nothing
[06:20] <Demolitio> I have a problem: I just clean-installed ubuntu, and have absolutly no sound when I test it in sound preferences.... the alsa service is enabled, and the volume is at max. most I was able to get was my speakers to pop when I selected/deselected the analog/digital switch option for my card (i'm using an Audigy 2 ZS). suggestions?

[06:21] <zblat> hi, can anyone help out? I was trying to reinstall feisty (dual booting with windows), and I think I pretty much botched it ^^ I deleted my ubuntu parition and was created a new one, but when I continued with the install, I got an error saying "the ext3 file system creation for partiion XXX failed"
[06:21] <silvernode> spikeb:I remember when ppl loved ati cards, now everyone likes nvidia but i can't stand em although my buddy has a nvidia and WoW works kfine in ubuntu. All i know is that although nvidia makes a lot of linux drivers, they make it a pain to get installed when ati just has an auto installed just like windows.
[06:21] <BlueEagle> eddymul: And install the build-essential package before compiling.
[06:21] <BlueEagle> eddymul: That ought to work.
[06:21] <eddyMul> radioaktivstorm: well, that's as far as I can help you. sorry....  :p
[06:21] <iuc> ok i have one more question: last time i installed ubuntu was before i had windows. the install was of 7.04 and went fine. i got to the log in screen, put in my s/n and pass, and bam; just a bright orange screen with a mouse pointer that i can move around. nothing happens, ever. i even left it on for three days. just that orange screen and pointer, nothing else. how do i make that not happen?
[06:21] <eddyMul> BlueEagle: got it. thanx.
[06:21] <mirak> is there a way to copy my system partition files to another partition ?
[06:21] <iuc> (i've got windows again btw)
[06:21] <spikeb> silvernode: nvidia's drivers are managed by the restricted drivers manager now :)
[06:21] <radioaktivstorm> eddyMul, thanks  anyway :) its not to big a deal
[06:22] <spikeb> silvernode: i dont like nvidia (the company) any more than you do, but they have far superior linux drivers
[06:22] <spikeb> brb
[06:22] <marco_linux> Can't copy Cds on Ubuntu Feisty. "Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)"?
[06:22] <zapzig> can someone tell me how to convert a video_ts folder to iso using mkisofs? I have no audio_ts folder
[06:22] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: How are you attempting to copy the cd?
[06:23] <perlmonkey> BlueEagle: I followed your advice and restarted X but my resolution is still stuck at 800x600 and i can't change it any higher
[06:23] <BlueEagle> perlmonkey: Did you read the whole advice from ubotu?
[06:23] <alesan^nc> zapzig, watch a growisofs tutorial to make videoo-dvds
[06:23] <silvernode> spikeb:true I actually got a card for my b-day but my dad got PCI express and my dell 3000 did not have a port for it since at the time it was made those ports weren't very popular so i can't use it with the 3000 or this computer which is home built.
[06:23] <iuc> REPEATING IN CASE NO ONE NOTICED: ok i have one more question: last time i installed ubuntu was before i had windows. the install was of 7.04 and went fine. i got to the log in screen, put in my s/n and pass, and bam; just a bright orange screen with a mouse pointer that i can move around. nothing happens, ever. i even left it on for three days. just that orange screen and pointer, nothing else. how do i make that not happen?
[06:23] <perlmonkey> I'm not sure :-/

[06:25] <Luxurious> Can someone explain to me when Apache 1.3 starts when I can't even find it in the process list?  (I only see apache2)

[06:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ubutu kvm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:25] <linuxnub> lol nothing just trying to learn how to use ubotu
[06:25] <iuc> i think u mean ubuntu
[06:25] <zapzig> alesan^nc, where can they be found
[06:25] <roland_> why does ubuntu has Banshee Music Player but the icon is missing from the menu ?
[06:25] <roland_> after installed
[06:25] <BlueEagle> linuxnub: ubotu does answer to /msg so you don't flood the chan.
[06:25] <eddyMul> iuc: hm.... is your /home in a separate partition from / (root)?
[06:25] <marco_linux> Can't copy Cds on Ubuntu Feisty. "Error trying to open /dev/hda exclusively (Device or resource busy)". Any clue?
[06:25] <linuxnub> k
[06:25] <cottima> I am not really a fan of ubuntu mainly because of how it has handled root and the graphical tools do not seem to interact with commandline tools.
[06:25] <alesan^nc> zapzig, come on write growisofs video dvd on google
[06:26] <cottima> could someone explain?
[06:26] <iuc> eddymul: i have no idea. i am a noob among linux noobs
[06:26] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: It's hard for me to help you if you don't answer my questions.
[06:26] <alesan^nc> cottima, the root thing is horrible, I agree
[06:26] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: How are you attempting to copy the CD?
[06:26] <marco_linux> Yes, I am trying to copy the CD.
[06:26] <eddyMul> iuc: so I assume you just "clicked next". hm...
[06:26] <Henry_Bean> hi, i'm having a problem with nvidia propietary module... i'm getting an "irq 18: nobody cared" error and doesn't load the module... i have to use the free one... i'm using nvidia-glx-new (driver version 1.0.9755) and kernel 2.6.20-16-generic... the full output of /var/log/kern.log is in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23742/ ... anybody has some hint to give so where i can start to look?
[06:26] <kc5goi> The more I read the more I am sure I want to Ghost the drive when I get my Dell and install the 64 bit version.  Either that or get a second hard drive.  Hmmmm.  So many ways to play.
[06:26] <Aerotwelve1> Hey everyone, can I install the standard Windows fonts, so my web pages will display like they would in Windows? I noticed Ubuntu uses different default fonts.
[06:26] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: HOW? Which application are you using? Have you got more than one cd-player?
[06:26] <georgevl> Anyone feel like helping me install Ubuntu on my machine? (didnt get any help in forums)
[06:26] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: how are you trying to copy the cd?
[06:27] <iuc> eddymul: pretty much. is /home supposed to be in a sep. partition from /root ?
[06:27] <BlueEagle> georgevl: What is the problem
[06:27] <BlueEagle> ?
[06:27] <linuxnub> /!ubotu how to fix xwindows login
[06:27] <eddyMul> iuc: not necessarily
[06:27] <marco_linux> I have only one CD-player! I am trying to copy using GnomeBaker.
[06:27] <iuc> eddymul: kk
[06:27] <eddyMul> iuc: have you tried checking the integrity of the install cd?
[06:27] <eddyMul> iuc: if I'm not mistaken, if you boot from the install cd
[06:27] <iuc> eddymul: yep it checks out fine
[06:27] <marco_linux> The "wodim --devices" gives the same error.
[06:28] <cottima> alesan^nc, i have never done a linux project, but need a base system then a ltsp system on top, got any ideas for distros?
[06:28] <eddyMul> iuc: hm.... so the cd is not damaged. so it might be software....
[06:28] <georgevl> BlueEagle: I cant get through a blank screen when booting
[06:28] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: What you probably want to do then is to first make a .iso-image of the master CD and then burn it.
[06:28] <radioaktivstorm> Aerotwelve1 if youre looking to change the fonts as far as the gui goes, i think its in system>preferences>fonts there you can change them to whatever. if in firefox is the rpoblem, try edit>preferences and set new default fonts
[06:28] <BlueEagle> georgevl: When does this blank screen appear?
[06:28] <marco_linux> That's what I am trying to do.
[06:28] <eddyMul> iuc: is it ubuntu or kubuntu or xubuntu?
[06:28] <BlueEagle> (ie. what is on-screen before it?)
[06:28] <kc5goi> talk to you guys later.
[06:28] <georgevl> BlueEagle: before getting into the GUI
[06:28] <marco_linux> I am trying to create an ISO image of the CD.
[06:28] <alesan^nc> radioaktivstorm, it's better to install those that are called microsoft core fonts
[06:28] <iuc> eddymul: also, this happened with the live cd. so i tried downloading the alternate thing. checked integ as well, same problem. just saw your last question. it's ubuntu.
[06:29] <georgevl> BlueEagle: the status bar is showing prior to the blank screen
[06:29] <alesan^nc> cottima, even if I don't like the root thing, ubuntu's great.
[06:29] <eddyMul> iuc: what's your graphics card?
[06:29] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: dd if="/dev/hda" of="~/isoimage.iso"
[06:29] <shawn34> is there a video resizing calculator for linux?
[06:29] <georgevl> BlueEagle: I can cntrl+alt+backspace (not a freeze)
[06:29] <BlueEagle> georgevl: Have you tried specifying VGA safe mode on the grub boot screen?
[06:29] <iuc> eddymul: its one of em onboard ones but it's acceptable for it i think lemme check rly quick
[06:29] <alesan^nc> marco_linux, to create an image: dd if=/dev/hdX of=image.iso bs=2k
[06:29] <BlueEagle> georgevl: Another option is using the alternate install cd.
[06:29] <alesan^nc> hdX shall be modiffied accordingly to your cdrom
[06:30] <georgevl> BlueEagle: indeed. tried a few things. also tried i386 and amd64 distros
[06:30] <Aerotwelve1> radioaktivstorm: I looked around and couldn't find Times or Tahoma, which I assume are Windows only. Is there any way I can install them, or are they proprietary?
[06:30] <marco_linux> There is no way to do it win graphic mode?
[06:30] <mirak> in general there are no hard links in linux installs distributions ?
[06:30] <spiffi> hello guys, I need to connect to an xp box via ubuntu and vice versa. how can i achieve this
[06:30] <georgevl> BlueEagle: Alternative install cd?!
[06:30] <alesan^nc> Aerotwelve1, they can be installed for sure
[06:30] <BlueEagle> georgevl: Yes. It's the old text-mode installation routine.
[06:30] <eddyMul> spiffi: what do you mean by "connect"? file sharing?
[06:30] <alesan^nc> Aerotwelve1, try to google for ms core fonts ubuntu
[06:30] <BlueEagle> georgevl: Nice if the live-cd doesn't want to play with your graphics setup.
[06:30] <alesan^nc> bye
[06:31] <georgevl> BlueEagle: Interesting... how do I get intrustionc on that?
[06:31] <shawn34> does anyone know if there is a video resizing calculator for linux?
[06:31] <georgevl> BlueEagle: My vga is nv 6600
[06:31] <BlueEagle> marco_linux: Also make sure that the CD sin't mounted before trying to make an iso-image of it.
[06:31] <spiffi> eddyMul: i need to connect via the internet from work to home.,,
[06:31] <georgevl> BlueEagle: (times two) PCie
[06:31] <iuc> eddymul: ok here's what i have - mobile intel(r) 915gm/gms,910gml express.  it's internal, 60hz, and 128.0 megs
[06:31] <radioaktivstorm> oops, sorry, i thought that they were already installed and you were trying to change the displayed fonts....Aerotwelve1
[06:31] <thirdy> I'm using xfce, how do I switch to KDE?
[06:31] <BlueEagle> georgevl: I've got no experience with that exact card. :/
[06:31] <eddyMul> iuc: that's weird... intel graphics should work very well.....
[06:31] <thirdy> I've installed KDE
[06:31] <Aerotwelve1> Alright, I'll look around for them. Thanks, alesan^nc and radioaktivstorm
[06:32] <radioaktivstorm> np ^^ good luck
[06:32] <eddyMul> iuc: I don't know what's going on at this point..... sorry......
[06:32] <iuc> eddymul: exactly thats why i don't think graphics are the problem
[06:32] <georgevl> BlueEagle: Fair enough...I just hoped I can somehow install first and get on the net and look for help then...
[06:32] <eddyMul> spiffi: the easiest way I can think of is SSH.
[06:32] <radioaktivstorm> thirdy, kde  should be on the login screen under sessions. if you click sessions, it should come up with your choices
[06:32] <georgevl> BlueEagle: I installed in VMWARE under Win and works great... was thinking of switching
[06:33] <cottima> is there a way to block certain users from command line or at least have two systems with certain user being blocked from the base system?
[06:33] <georgevl> BlueEagle: "hoping" more like
[06:33] <eddyMul> spiffi: but that would only allow your XP box to connect to your Ubuntu box, but not the other way around....
[06:33] <thirdy> I've installed kubuntu-desktop with aptitude, how do I switch to KDE???
[06:33] <iuc> eddymul: right. so if its not graphics, what else could the problem be?
[06:33] <marco_linux> ok. If I umount it as root it works.
[06:33] <eddyMul> spiffi: well, for the other way around, you can (gasp) enable remote desktop.
[06:33] <georgevl> Anyone else who can help me with NVidia 6600 x 2 setup?
[06:34] <radioaktivstorm> thirdy, kde  should be on the login screen under sessions. if you click sessions, it should come up with your choices. log out then sessions then kde
[06:34] <spiffi> eddyMul: why the "gasp" :O
[06:34] <marco_linux> but it is a litte bit disappointing that I have to login as root, umount the CD in order to copy it.
[06:34] <iuc> eddymul: also, i want to install ubuntu onto the same hd as i have windows on. i've heard that this's possible, so how do i do this?
[06:34] <marco_linux> isn't it?
[06:35] <thirdy> radioaktivstorm: nope I don't see any , but the splash screen changed to kubuntu not xubuntu anymore
[06:35] <eddyMul> iuc: just from experience: 1) messed up GNOME settings, or 2) sound card lockups. But I think they're rare (and it happened to me after some usage, not from a fresh install)
[06:35] <radioaktivstorm> oh did you switch to kdm?
[06:35] <c0ldfront>  isnt working
[06:35] <c0ldfront> err
[06:35] <radioaktivstorm> thirdy, it might be under options
[06:35] <georgevl> :(
[06:35] <eddyMul> spiffi: well, running any server software on windows is scary...
[06:36] <thirdy> kd,?
[06:36] <ZeroA4> !br
[06:36] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[06:36] <thirdy> kdm?
[06:36] <snail_> i'm having issues with getting my wireless card to work , is there any more specific channel i should goto or does anyone here have an idea on it , ive followd the wiki on it and it's still not working
[06:36] <thirdy> radioaktivstorm, where can set that options?
[06:37] <radioaktivstorm> thirdy, when you installed kubuntu-desktop there was a screen that said gdm or kdm
[06:37] <iuc> eddymul: ok thanks. i'll try checking out my sounds and redo ops and stuff. btw, didja see my last question?

[06:38] <radioaktivstorm> but if i recall correctly, that shouldnt matter a whole lot. there should be an options button or a session button on the splash where you log in. look for it and it should let you change from xfce to kde
[06:38] <jiffer> can anyone help me?

[06:46] <jiffer> ok
[06:46] <jiffer> i'm new to this
[06:46] <snail_> Cockroach, i don't see anything...
[06:46] <jiffer> how do i get like my windows application over to this
[06:46] <LjL> jiffer: you install WINE and then you install your Windows applications over it. (at least, that's one possibility)
[06:46] <georgevl> All the articles I have found for Nvidia 6600 are almost a year old and I would really like to setup Ubuntu here....
[06:46] <jiffer> ok
[06:46] <georgevl> please help
[06:47] <LjL> jiffer: don't expect all (or even many) of your Windows applications to work. this is not Windows.
[06:47] <jiffer> how do i get wine
[06:47] <LjL> !wine > jiffer    (jiffer, see the private message from Ubotu)
[06:47] <jiffer> can you send me a link mate
[06:47] <jiffer> i'm using a 32bit
[06:47] <LjL> jiffer: just did
[06:47] <fsckr> jiffer, ubuntuguide.org is your friend
[06:47] <LjL> fsckr: when it doesn't give totally ill advice
[06:47] <SlimeyPete> georgevl: you want to install your graphics drivers?
[06:47] <irbdavid> hiya - the 7.04 installer doesn't show anything on my screen when i put the disc in
[06:47] <snail_> i'm having issues with getting my wireless card to work , is there any more specific channel i should goto or does anyone here have an idea on it , ive followd the wiki on it and it's still not working
[06:47] <fsckr> for the most part its ok
[06:47] <irbdavid> just gets as far as selecting the install option, then nothing
[06:47] <fsckr> i haven't had any problems so far knock on wood
[06:48] <jiffer> so is this a good OS
[06:48] <fsckr> jiffer, yep
[06:48] <jiffer> it seems much harder to use
[06:48] <radioaktivstorm> thirdy, how goes the install? did kubuntu desktop  come on nicely yet?
[06:48] <fsckr> only because you need to read
[06:48] <jiffer> i know
[06:48] <SlimeyPete> jiffer: it's not harder, really...it's just different.
[06:48] <fsckr> you can't expect to just know what you are doing
[06:48] <georgevl> SlimeyPete: I cant get through the install... boots into a blank screen
[06:48] <jiffer> yeah
[06:48] <irbdavid> same problem here
[06:48] <Demolitio> Demolitio: I'm having problems getting sound playback to work on a freshly-installed ubuntu install.... alsa service is enabled, and the volume sliders in volume control are up to max and unmuted. suggestions? I'm using an SB audigy 2 ZS

[06:49] <Rynoo> Did anyone else just have problems with the latest ubuntu firefox update?
[06:49] <youshotwhointhew> hello, can anyone give me some advice -- i think my DSDT is farked
[06:49] <SlimeyPete> jiffer: have you found the Add/Remove Programs or Synaptic applications yet? Take a look at them. You might be impressed by how easy they make things :)
[06:49] <Armageddon00> Anyone know why SCIM would complain that my ushortints aren't the right size and my chars aren't either, then it says "You might want to consider using the GNU C Compiler" when i ./configure?  I have gcc installed (obviously...)
[06:49] <_dank> how do i make xchat not connect to this channel on startup
[06:49] <jiffer> ok i'll do that mate
[06:49] <SlimeyPete> georgevl: how are you installing them? Via the Restricted Hardware Manager?
[06:49] <Cockroach> @snail_ nevermind
[06:50] <jiffer> does anyone have a link so i can get the new itunes
[06:50] <georgevl> SlimeyPete: I dont get any such options... I choose Start/Install Ubuntu and it gets to a blank screen
[06:50] <LjL> jiffer: i don't think iTunes will run on Ubuntu.
[06:50] <mneptok> georgevl: desktop or alternate CD?
[06:50] <jiffer> oh mate there is always a way
[06:50] <SlimeyPete> georgevl: try installing from the alternate CD
[06:50] <georgevl> mneptok: desktop
[06:50] <Rynoo> Did anyone else just have problems with the latest ubuntu firefox update?
[06:51] <mneptok> georgevl: SlimeyPete has the idea
[06:51] <georgevl> SlimeyPete: dont know how to :-( , whats the alternate cd?
[06:51] <LjL> jiffer, maybe. however if you want to basically only use Windows/Mac programs, i don't see the point of using Ubuntu. use a Linux player instead, methinks.
[06:51] <jiffer> i still can't seem to find the right WINE installer
[06:51] <georgevl> mneptok: do i download from somewhere?
[06:51] <mneptok> georgevl: http://montreal.canonical.com/torrents
[06:51] <SlimeyPete> georgevl: you can get the alternate CD from the download page on ubuntu.com. It uses an alternate installer program which does not use graphics (but it's still fairly simple to use)
[06:51] <LjL> jiffer: "wine installer"?
[06:51] <mneptok> georgevl: you can find the torrent for the i386 alternate CD there
[06:52] <jiffer> i want t cross platfore windows apps so i can open them on un
[06:52] <georgevl> EXCELLENT! Thank you both!
[06:52] <SlimeyPete> georgevl: you may find that once Ubuntu is installed, your graphics will work fine. If they don't, you'll be able to boot into the system at least - so you can start fixing things manually.
[06:52] <jiffer> someone said something about wine program so i can open windows programs on them
[06:52] <LjL> jiffer, you need to enable Universe and then install the "wine" package. the guide i gave you has detailed instructions.
[06:52] <pmo> i have a problem, i tried to make my sound driver work properly, installed oss-linux_v4.0-1002_i386.deb... and now the system is messed up, no sound, does anyone have a clue how to remove it and get the default one back? i can remove or install oss-linux, and alsa doesnt work. anyone know what i have to do?
[06:52] <LjL> jiffer, the someone was me.
[06:52] <Voodoonix> i recently installed a game on ubuntu, the game works fine but. there is no sound
[06:52] <jiffer> ok
[06:52] <LjL> jiffer, you don't need a "wine installer". you just need to follow that guide.
[06:52] <jiffer> your link didn't work
[06:52] <SlimeyPete> jiffer: Wine allows you to run some Windows programs, yes
[06:53] <LjL> !software > jiffer    (jiffer, see the private message from Ubotu) also, this is a more general guide about installing software on Ubuntu
[06:53] <ubotu> I'll remember that, LjL
[06:53] <jiffer> i want to rund STEAM
[06:53] <LjL> !doesn't work | jiffer
[06:53] <LjL> crap
[06:53] <ubotu> jiffer: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[06:53] <Panda200x> Hey, what's konsole command for installing things like ('Make')
[06:53] <irbdavid> georgevl: what graphics hardware do you have?
[06:53] <Panda200x> sudo apt-get ?
[06:53] <radioaktivstorm> jiffer, banshee is a pretty cool media player ...or you can use exaile or rhythmbox. they all work nicely ^^
[06:53] <mneptok> interactive ruby?
[06:53] <georgevl> irbdavid: 2x Nvidia 6600 PCIe
[06:53] <Panda200x> what's the package or whatever :P
[06:53] <Demolitio> Demolitio: I'm having problems getting sound playback to work on a freshly-installed ubuntu install.... alsa service is enabled, and the volume sliders in volume control are up to max and unmuted. suggestions? I'm using an SB Audigy 2 ZS.

[06:54] <Endlessguitar> hello
[06:54] <radioaktivstorm> ...or amarok
[06:54] <jiffer> i want to find out how i can put STEAM on here as well as microsoft office
[06:54] <jiffer> and VENT
[06:54] <mneptok> jiffer: OpenOffice not working?
[06:54] <SlimeyPete> jiffer: if you look in the System menu, there's something called Synaptic. If you run that, and add the "Universe" repository & click Reload, you'll be able to search for Wine and install it from there.
[06:54] <Joe_CoT> hey guys, what's the command(s) to disable acpi entirely?
[06:55] <mneptok> Joe_CoT: add "noacpi" to the kernel boot parameters
[06:55] <bahnhof> i don't get it... why do people install linux if they only want to run windows software on it?
[06:55] <mneptok> bahnhof++
[06:55] <jiffer> ok i'm here at the synaptic package manager
[06:55] <LjL> jiffer, go back to using Windows if you're going to run all that Windows software. Ubuntu won't be any use to you.
[06:55] <bahnhof> mneptok: :)
[06:55] <jiffer> now how do i use it
[06:55] <snail_> when i iwconfig my wireless card and tell it to conect to a specific essid , it only shows the first letter if i iwconfig , and if i iwlist scan , it never shows results even though i'm sitting next to the router
[06:56] <LjL> jiffer: you select the software you want installed, and click Apply.
[06:56] <jiffer> I'm just trying to learn
[06:56] <jiffer> but i donlt know what half of it does
[06:56] <LjL> jiffer: you're trying to learn the wrong things.

[06:56] <jiffer> so i can install steam
[06:56] <LjL> jiffer: running Windows programs isn't the point of Ubuntu. at all.
[06:56] <SlimeyPete> jiffer: like LjL said. Also, you can make more software available by accessing the Repositories screen from the menus at the top.
[06:56] <jiffer> see i've been using CROSS-PLATFORM but my 30 day trial is up
[06:56] <bahnhof> mneptok: you just do it. and then you drown. :]
[06:56] <LjL> jiffer, follow. the. guide. and if it "doesn't work", as you said, you need to DESCRIBE what does not work.
[06:57] <jiffer> and i don;t want to have to play for it
[06:57] <Teddy_Ramone> while trying to load ubuntu (7.04) i see Kernel panic - fatal exception!

[07:02] <perlmonkey> what's the max resolution which is safe to set for a 17" monitor normally?
[07:02] <roryy> Teddy_Ramone: i'm looking at the wiki for clues...
[07:02] <tommy__> hello, i just upgraded my Edgy to Feisty.. But my X wont start now
[07:02] <bur[n] er> Quintin: astomper:  mencoder is a term-based app while "soundconverter" is a GTK based gui... "soundkonverter" for KDE-based
[07:02] <Teddy_Ramone> thx
[07:02] <aroo> 1152x864 ?
[07:03] <tommy__> Fatal Error: No Devices found
[07:03] <perlmonkey> aroo: thanks
[07:03] <tommy__> or something
[07:03] <aroo> perlmonkey: 1024x768 for absolute safety probably
[07:03] <roryy> Teddy_Ramone: you can look too: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[07:03] <aroo> perlmonkey: depends on the monitor though I guess
[07:03] <roland_> wtf i enabled 'workspaces on a cube' and there is no cube
[07:03] <perlmonkey> i see
[07:03] <roland_> in desktop effects
[07:03] <bur[n] er> perlmonkey: wide?  if not... 1280x1024 probably  1024x768 as aroo says will work for sure

[07:04] <roland_> and i did not change anything in any configuration
[07:05] <roland_> except setting 24 bith depth in Xorg config
[07:05] <bahnhof> tommy__: did you check your xorg.conf for any changes the update might have done?
[07:05] <KuzuX> any help for my problem?
[07:05] <snail_> KuzuX, what's that?
[07:05] <Teddy_Ramone> roryy: can sound card make any difference? 'cos mine is integrated with motherboard and it makes problems even for windows
[07:05] <tommy__> i just got this laptop back from rep, so i dont remember the config, does not have a backup.
[07:05] <KuzuX> hile booting,the loadscreen becomes a console and shows many warnings:
[07:05] <snail_> i'm in here waiting on help, but in the mean time i'll take a show
[07:06] <KuzuX> [time since start of boot] Buffer I/O error on device hdc1,logical cluster something

[07:06] <jiffer> ok
[07:07] <snail_> try taking out all other hdd's ?
[07:07] <jiffer> how do i know what version of ubuntu i'm using
[07:07] <jiffer> ?
[07:07] <skulrid> hello
[07:07] <snail_> hi
[07:07] <jrib> !version > jiffer (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:07] <KuzuX> snail_:what do you mean by try taking out all other hdd's ?
[07:07] <jiffer> also i'm trying to download the right version of wine
[07:07] <jiffer> but i don;t know where to get it
[07:07] <snail_> KuzuX, turn the computer off , unplug all the hard drives except the one with ubuntu on it
[07:07] <jiffer> non of the links the guide gives me works
[07:07] <jrib> jiffer: system -> administration -> synaptic, search for wine
[07:08] <sacater> jiffer: sudo apt-get install wine
[07:08] <tommy__> ...
[07:08] <KuzuX> ok,i'll try that
[07:08] <tommy__> i cant se no apparent alterations of my xorg.cong
[07:08] <tommy__> conf*
[07:08] <bahnhof> tommy__: next thing to check would be /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[07:08] <cottima> where would I find an explanation of how the root user works and the interaction between graphical (admiin) tools and command line (admin) tools?
[07:09] <skulrid> I was trying to instal flash plugins cause I couldnt open some "games" (on miniclip for ex), now I cant see videos on youtube or any flash app. firefox is also very unstable closing without warning (sometimes it says something about fscommand protocol not associated with any program). please help overhere... thnks
[07:09] <jrib> !sudo > cottima (see the private message from ubotu)
[07:09] <czedlitz> is there a command in terminal to find out what nvidia driver i have installed ?
[07:09] <LjL> jiffer: will you just please enable Universe and then install WINE from Synaptic as the guide says? and if that fails, will you please be *very specific* about what errors you get? otherwise, you'll just waste your time and ours.
[07:09] <jrib> _dank: in the server preferences you can tell xchat not to auto-connect to this cahnnel
[07:09] <jrib> czedlitz: apt-cache policy nvidia-glx
[07:10] <roryy> Teddy_Ramone: nothing on the wiki or in the bug list for i865gv
[07:10] <jiffer> is there a way i can just go on a website and download something then open it like i can in windows
[07:10] <_dank> jrib: thanks
[07:10] <czedlitz> i didn't use apt to install them though
[07:10] <czedlitz> i used the package from the website
[07:10] <jrib> jiffer: no that's not recommended. What is so difficult about checking a box and hitting apply exactly?
[07:10] <LjL> jiffer: no, because Ubuntu works differently. actually, it's much easier than that, as the whole downloading and installing will be done for you. you just need to READ to know what to click.
[07:11] <happy1890> can anyone suggest a good ip scanner for ubuntu
[07:11] <wols> happy1890: nmap

[07:11] <happy1890> my trying to ping sweep my network
[07:11] <snail_> when i iwconfig my wireless card and tell it to conect to a specific essid , it only shows the first letter if i iwconfig , and if i iwlist scan , it never shows results even though i'm sitting next to the router
[07:11] <happy1890> do know the cmd for a sweep with nmap
[07:11] <jiffer> ok

[07:12] <Lunar_Lamp> Now that itunes seems to be offering DRM-free music, I'd like to buy some.  Is it possible to use the itunes store/ITMS on linux?
[07:13] <new2ubuntu> um
[07:13] <DBO> Lunar_Lamp, with Wine yes you can run the windows version of itunes
[07:13] <thirdy> can I easily install GTK?
[07:13] <thirdy> using apt?
[07:13] <jrib> thirdy: I'm pretty sure you already have it
[07:13] <Lunar_Lamp> DBO, so there is no linux-interface that hooks in? I know there used to be one, but then apple changed the system so it broke.
[07:13] <LjL> thirdy: GTK is installed by default.
[07:13] <wols> thirdy: if you install gnome, you have grk
[07:13] <DBO> thirdy, you a Kubuntu user or somesuch?
[07:13] <wols> *gtk
[07:14] <LjL> thirdy: if you need to *compile* something that needs GTK, then you need libgtk2.0-dev
[07:14] <DBO> Lunar_Lamp, the best way and safest way is to use Wine to run iTunes
[07:14] <thirdy> xubuntu, currently installing kununtu-desktop
[07:14] <Lunar_Lamp> DBO, ok :-)
[07:14] <Aerotwelve1> Alright, I have one more thing to iron out here, wireless internet. When I use the System > Administration > Network tool, I only see Wired connection and modem. Does this mean Ubuntu doesn't recognize my card?
[07:14] <Lunar_Lamp> Thankyou
[07:14] <LjL> thirdy: then you do have GTK.

[07:15] <radioaktivstorm> DBO, wine can run itunes? didnt know that. i still like banshee though ^^
[07:15] <cottima> jrib:  thank you.  I have used previous versions of ubuntu and when I need to use command line tools to do a job it either busts the system in some form, the command does not affect the system how i want, or the graphical tools must be used (and the graphical tools are not usually accessable), any idea on what i should read?  Oh, by the way I am not a good linux user using desktop environments but want to do more command line and i use the na
[07:15] <zootm> thirdy: IDE for what language? It's pretty subjective in any case.
[07:15] <jrib> cottima: I can't think of a case where using command line tools would conflict with the gui tools
[07:15] <DBO> radioaktivstorm, everything but version 7.0
[07:16] <andrewmac> Anyone know how to change the opacity of the taskbar in GNOME?
[07:16] <thirdy> zoomtm, C/C++ I'm a devc++5 person
[07:16] <jrib> cottima: you got cut off at "use the na..." by the way
[07:16] <DBO> Lunar_Lamp, that reminds me, get version 6.0, 7.0 has issues with Wine
[07:16] <ltibor65> Hi guys! How can I mount an ext3 filesystem in fstab for everybody with read-write rights? I have now this: /dev/hda4 /media/hda4     ext3    defaults        0       2. What to change?
[07:16] <radioaktivstorm> DBO, crazy
[07:16] <Lunar_Lamp> DBO, right, version 6 will still work fine with ITMS?
[07:16] <the_ringmaster> right click on the bar and select preferences
[07:16] <DBO> Lunar_Lamp, should work fine =)
[07:16] <radioaktivstorm> andrewmac, right click on the panel
[07:16] <jrib> ltibor65: if it's ext3, you use chmod or chown appropriately just like any other file on your system
[07:16] <Lunar_Lamp> DBO, let the experimentation commence! :-)
[07:16] <redcard> Lunar_Lamp: Have you downloaded ANY songs from the ITMS in Itunes 7?

[07:19] <rubydo> Hi, using Feisty 7.04, my system frequently locks up, becoming responsive roughly for one second every minute. If I use those seconds of responsiveness to check 'top', nothing particularly strange comes up - firefox-bin is top with 25%, but even kill -9 on that doesn't make the system resposive again. Anyone any hints?
[07:19] <jrib> fuzzy_logic: just make sure you are in the right location
[07:19] <runa> jrib : can u tell me one
[07:19] <skulrid> I think I have, how do I enable them?

[07:20] <Azhi_Dahaka> i installed ubuntu and kubuntu-desktop
