[00:00] <bazhang> muibe, did not see the question
[00:00] <th0r> mido1: it usually looks once every ten to sixty minutes for a change in the ip, but he won't have an ip at bootup
[00:00] <bazhang> jondavis, installed from Where; which version
[00:00] <jondavis> it will also work 4 youtube .com
[00:00] <ctmjr> Andy80: you can look in there and see if you have an option like UXA or XAA
[00:00] <mido1> th0r: Exactly.
[00:00] <Lostin> jondavis, you would be done with the tut by nom, and I guarantee it will work for you
[00:00] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun,  try installing from the command line, first "sudo apt-get update"  then "sudo apt-get install partimage"
[00:00] <sman> how do I set my keyboard layout in xorg.conf? I've read the wiki, XKbdLayout doesn't work
[00:00] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> thats what I did
[00:01] <Andy80> ctmjr: this is my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.ca/1507295 I don't have none of that...
[00:01] <muibe> bazhang: how is it possible to make all the external devices read-only ones?
[00:01] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> I couldent even find it in symaptics package manager
[00:01] <th0r> mido1: the best bet is to run it at login (startup apps) and put a sleep command at the beginning to delay it long enough for nm to start
[00:01] <mido1> th0r: Are you familiar with the script from no-ip?
[00:01] <Lostin> sman If you find out let me know
[00:01] <bazhang> muibe, why do you need to set this
[00:01] <jondavis> look if yall can help everyone in here well so can u help me
[00:01] <Ilija> VCoolio: there is no /usr/bin/gdebi-gtk on default installation
[00:02] <th0r> mido1: I used it quite a while ago....but they didn't have network manager at the time
[00:02] <mrwes> Ok...I'm out -- Red Soxs are on :)
[00:02] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun, the same happened to me with cinelerra, I couldnt find the package so I just installed using "apt-get install" and it worked fine
[00:02] <th0r> mido1: all I did was start it after interfaces did the ifup
[00:02] <trollboy> jondavis, no one here is paid.  We are all volunteers helping people for free.  We don't HAVE to help anyone.
[00:02] <bazhang> jondavis, I am asking for particulars, you are providing none
[00:02] <Trueno> mido1: In the live system don't have Internet. Can I download the files from windows?
[00:02] <muibe> bazhang: because i want to prevent copying of the stuff into an external media
[00:02] <Lostin> sman some of the trouble is that the mans reference files that have changed
[00:02] <mido1> Trueno: The problem is to find out which files are to update.
[00:02] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun,  you already tried "sudo apt-get install partimage" ???
[00:02] <jondavis> i  install it from ubutntu
[00:03] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> this is what it says if I try
[00:03] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> http://pastebin.com/m7f48101c
[00:03] <bazhang> jondavis, how long have you had this problem, which version of ubuntu  ( lsb_release -a ) in a terminal
[00:03] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> and yes UI used that command in the terminal
[00:04] <Trueno> mido1. I understand
[00:04] <jondavis> i have it for a longtime and i have ubuntu linux 9.04
[00:04] <ctmjr> Andy80: open the file for editing and add this to the device section under identifier   Option		"AccelMethod"			"uxa"
[00:04] <sman> how do I set my keyboard layout in xorg.conf?
[00:04] <nkvorn> !jondavis
[00:04] <pisecx> hi. what is the difference between "invoke-rc.d" and "service" commands?
[00:04] <Lostin> jondavis..you are beating your head against a wall.just use the tut.  It's a sticky, it wouldn't stay there if it didn't work
[00:04] <ctmjr> Andy80: then restart X
[00:05] <nikolatesla> //
[00:05] <bazhang> nkvorn, no need for that; /msg ubottu in future please
[00:05] <bazhang> jondavis, lets keep this in channel, not via PM
[00:05] <sman> I think I have a unique and very interesting keyboard problem
[00:05] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> any ideas?
[00:05] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun, can I see your cat /etc/apt/sources.list file?
[00:05] <sman> and I'm growing quite fond of solving it
[00:05] <edbian> sman: I'm just curious of hearing what it is!
[00:05] <Lostin> nkvorn I think it's "1<command>  |  <nick>
[00:05] <Andy80> ctmjr: anyway I remember that hardware rendering worked fine until some days ago when I connected an external monitor... could that have messed up all things?
[00:06] <trollboy> bazhang, he msg'd me as well thinking I was you.  I'm honestly leaning towards a terminal case of PEBKAC on that oen
[00:06] <bazhang> jondavis, have these sites ever worked for you
[00:06] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> Ill try, not sure if dcc will work
[00:06] <edbian> nkvorn: !<command>  not 1
[00:06] <bazhang> trollboy, no need for that, please be civil
[00:06] <Lostin> !welcome  |nkvorn
[00:06] <sman> edbian: here goes: whenever I am in X, in any terminal emulator, pressing "up" on the keyboard spawns "sh: lpr: command not found"
[00:06] <jondavis> it  did when i was a windeos user
[00:06] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun, just copy and paste your source.list file to pastebin
[00:06] <edbian> bazhang: I was just trying to help him.  I can't figure out the issue.  He has "flashplugin-nonfree" installed but he cannot play some flash videos
[00:06] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> ok
[00:07] <jondavis> now i am a ubuntu linux user
[00:07] <sman> edbian: regardless of shell, terminal emulator, locale
[00:07] <bazhang> edbian, it is confusing as those sites work for me
[00:07] <edbian> sman: neat!
[00:07] <sman> edbian: I know!
[00:07] <edbian> bazhang: Me too
[00:07] <Ilija> thor: it seems to work!
[00:07] <bazhang> jondavis, what does about:plugins show in your browser when you type it in
[00:07] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun,  put your file in pastebin so that everyone in the room can see it, someone may catch something that I didn't
[00:07] <ctmjr> Andy80: it might have messed up something but your xorg.file is very minimal
[00:07] <sman> edbian: so I think the root of the problem is xorg
[00:07] <Ilija> thank you all very much
[00:07] <edbian> bazhang: Perhaps he hasnt' killed the firefox process but simply stopped and started firefox really quickly.
[00:07] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> mezquitale: here http://pastebin.com/m4aae8f8c
[00:07] <bazhang> edbian, good point
[00:07] <jondavis> i dont ubderstand
[00:07] <Lostin> nkvorn I mistyped  "!welcome  |  nkvorn"
[00:07] <edbian> sman: Yeah sounds like a bad mapping.  Does the up arrow work correctly for other applications?
[00:08] <sman> edbian: yes
[00:08] <Ilija> Bye for now :)
[00:08] <Lostin> nkvorn it pipes the message to the nick
[00:08] <sman> edbian: just any console stuff.
[00:08] <bazhang> jondavis, in your address bar (where you type www.cbs.com) type ----->  about:plugins
[00:08] <sman> edbian: apart from tty/framebuffer - it's fine there
[00:08] <Andy80> ctmjr: anyway the uxa option won't enable hardware rendering.....
[00:08] <jondavis> i go to a website like www.cbs.com and look tv/videos and it will not work
[00:09] <edbian> sman: Good luck with that man!  I'm clueless
[00:09] <Andy80> ctmjr: I should have something like this: OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Intel(R) 945GM GEM 20090326 2009Q1 RC2 x86/MMX/SSE2
[00:09] <bazhang> jondavis, please tell me what about:plugins says about that adobe plugin
[00:09]  * sman breaks down
[00:09] <cooper77z> yay, I got a second monitor for my laptop can someone help me make it work so that I can have 2 monitors working at the same time?
[00:09] <nkvorn> Lostin, nice. where can i find more info about these irc commands?
[00:10] <bazhang> !xrandr | cooper77z
[00:10] <jondavis> then u pm me
[00:10] <edbian> !ubotto
[00:10] <jondavis> if you need to know ok
[00:10] <jelly-bean> is there any good OpenLDAP .ldif file editor GUI?
[00:10] <edbian> !ubottu
[00:10] <cooper77z> thanks
[00:10] <cooper77z> ubottu
[00:10] <jondavis> i am tied of tell people what i have
[00:10] <bazhang> jondavis, no provide the answers here please; about:plugins output
[00:10] <Lostin> jondavis  If you got the plugin from the adobe site, it doebn't work well "out of the box" so to speak
[00:11] <edbian> Lostin: He got it from the repos
[00:11] <Lostin> edbian Hmm should work..let me check something
[00:11] <bazhang> jondavis, have you installed several different flash plugins?
[00:11] <jondavis> i got it from ubuntu  in system
[00:12] <jondavis> daaaaaaaaaa
[00:12] <bazhang> jondavis, about:plugins
[00:12] <edbian> jondavis: You got it from symantic.  Which is the repos. :)
[00:12] <jondavis> yes
[00:12] <Sarvatt> does anyone happen to know when the next ubuntu membership meeting for the americas might be? the wiki page says july 15th and I cant find any mention of the next date in the irc logs. -- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Membership/RegionalBoards/Americas
[00:12] <jondavis> then i dont know
[00:12] <muibe> so my problem is insurmountable?
[00:12] <cobra-the-joker> Hey there guys .....is there a support channel for g(ood)OS ?
[00:12] <funcky1> i keep getting this message every time i try to install something http://paste.ubuntu.com/233508/ what is going on?
[00:12] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun,  it looks like you have all the repos configured, the only other reason you could get this error is because you have a key missing or your package manager is corrupt
[00:12] <jondavis> some of you people tell me to do thid and to do that
[00:13] <jondavis> it all not works
[00:13] <bazhang> Sarvatt, #ubuntu-meeting or the planet fridge calendar likely would have that info
[00:13] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma,  the last time I saw this error I had a key missing, I had to import the key from the repo that has the software
[00:13] <edbian> funcky1: You have more than one package manager open.
[00:13] <bazhang> jondavis, about:plugins
[00:13] <jondavis> yes
[00:13] <funcky1> edbian: no i dont
[00:14] <Lostin> jondavis  this will be several lines but it should fix you up
[00:14] <Cyber_Akuma> How do I do that? And which repo has it?
[00:14] <funcky1> edbian: unless one is hidden somewhere
[00:14] <edbian> funcky1: You probably have a zombie process of one lingering open.  Open the system monitor and look for it.
[00:14] <jondavis> and if it foes not
[00:14] <funcky1> edbian: it says i have apt-get running. could that be it?
[00:14] <edbian> funcky1: That's it!
[00:15] <Andy80> ctmjr: I was right :P removing those lines about virtual resolution has fixed my problem
[00:15] <edbian> funcky1: apt-get, aptitude, synaptic, add/remove, and dpkg are all "the package manager"
[00:15] <funcky1> edbian: thanks!
[00:15] <bazhang> jondavis, have you installed the flash plugin individually or part of ubuntu-restricted-extras
[00:15] <edbian> funcky1: Did killing it solve your problem?
[00:15] <revstray> hi guys!
[00:15] <mezquitale> Cyber_Akuma, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu
[00:16] <Lostin> jondavis  sorry it didn't copy the first time..here it is

[00:17] <emilio> IN THE UPDATE PROCES
[00:17] <xtremegamer> hello all again
[00:17] <Lostin> jondavis  That plugin works
[00:17] <revstray> I'm running into an oddity with Ubuntu, in debian land in order to not automatically install "recommended" packages you can put APT::Install-Recommends "0"; into /etc/apt/apt.conf, but Ubuntu doesn't appear to be honoring that. I also have a symlink from /etc/apt/apt.conf to /etc/apt/apt.d.conf/01config, Any recommended place I should put it instead?
[00:17] <toyimp> what's a good irc client? Not liking XChat
[00:17] <revstray> irssi is a nice irc client
[00:17] <Sarvatt> bazhang: thanks, i dont see anything on the fridge calendar for the next 3 months though. I guess I will look into applying through another country
[00:18] <xtremegamer> i have an ASUS P7131 cable tuner card , any good application that work with it ?
[00:18] <toyimp> thanks revstray :)
[00:18] <xtremegamer> also my webcam went missing
[00:18] <revstray> toyimp: I use irssi + screen + ssh all the time, for almost 5 yrs now, works like a charm. Doh, too late.
[00:18] <Lostin> revstray If you use Synaptic, you can pick and choose
[00:19] <emilio> When I try to run the Update Manager, it gives me this error message .... Could not download all repository indexes
[00:19] <th0r> emilio: that just means it couldn't contact one or more of the repos....might  be a temp network issue
[00:19] <revstray> Lostin: same with aptitude, but apt is the underlying system and that doesn't answer the "where does Ubuntu read configs from" for apt.conf
[00:19] <xtremegamer> i get when i plug my webcam in :   351.041154] usb 2-4: V4L2 device registered as /dev/video0
[00:19] <xtremegamer> [  351.041158] usb 2-4: Optional device control through 'sysfs' interface disabled
[00:19] <xtremegamer> [  351.077817] usb 2-4: usb_submit_urb() failed, error -28
[00:19] <mido1> xtremegamer: I don't know the tuner card, is it USB or PCI?
[00:19] <rootlinuxusr> For what it's worth, on the ejecting CD error - Seems I had an errant rhythmbox session still up and running....
[00:19] <edbian> What is the best way to get my background to be a terminal??
[00:20] <cooper77z> ubottu,that looks really difficult to install xrandr, is really difficult?
[00:20] <xtremegamer> mido1:PCI
[00:20] <edbian> cooper77z: xrandr is in the system by default
[00:20] <emilio> th0r: but in the details says... Failed to fetch cdrom://Ubuntu 9.04 _Jaunty Jackalope_ - Release i386 (20090420.1)/dists/jaunty/main/binary-i386/Packages  Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs
[00:20] <edbian> cooper77z: Just look at "man xrandr"
[00:20] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> didnt work
[00:20] <bazhang> Sarvatt, sometimes listings are misplaced or dont get through, if you post a question in #ubuntu-meeting someone will likely reply
[00:21] <bazhang> cooper77z, not really hard, best to read the docs first though at that link
[00:21] <cooper77z> edbian, when I plug the cable into the back of my computer and press the toggle monitor + function key there is a flash of black, then nothing
[00:21] <blooper> ive installed counter strike source thru steam using wine but now cannot load the game nor steam after a reboot
[00:21] <mido1> xtremegamer: Okay, is it an analog tuner or a dvb tuner?
[00:21] <th0r> emilio: in synaptic, uncheck the cdrom in Settings - Repositories
[00:21] <cooper77z> bazhang, they are difficult to understand
[00:21] <xtremegamer> mido1 : analog probably
[00:22] <solexious> I'm having problems playing most dvd's on my computer, I have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs but with no success, some times vlc will play them but totem or dd wont play/copy
[00:22] <mido1> xtremegamer: Sorry, not my field.
[00:22] <blooper> ive installed counter strike source thru steam using wine but now cannot load the game nor steam after a reboot
[00:22] <artillerytx> anyone want to help me set up a web server with dns
[00:22] <magnetron> !repeat | blooper
[00:22] <edbian> cooper77z: The easiest and first thing you should try is this:  Plug in reboot with both monitors plugged in and see if they show up in the Screen Resolution app
[00:22] <th0r> emilio: either that, or make sure the install cd is in the drive every time you click update in synaptic <smile>
[00:22] <xtremegamer> mido1: do you know the problem with  my webcam then ?
[00:22] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> Any other ideas why its doing this?
[00:22] <emilio> th0r: perfect ...thank you
[00:22] <bazhang> blooper, please dont repeat so quickly; folks need time to websearch
[00:23] <cooper77z> ok edbian, I'll try it, thanks
[00:23] <bazhang> jondavis, was this flash installed individually, or with the ubuntu-restricted-extras package
[00:23] <egc> hi all
[00:23] <muibe> ubottu: what if i end up being pretty much ignored every time i ask something? ;)
[00:24] <egc> is there a way to have a windows section for menu.lst generated automatically?
[00:24] <bazhang> muibe, these external devices are what filesystem
[00:24] <ctmjr> Andy80: glad to hear it and your right uxa is not 3d rendering but the dri2 module cannot run 3d without it is for 2d acceleration
[00:24] <xtremegamer> when i plug my webcam in i get this   351.041154] usb 2-4: V4L2 device registered as /dev/video0
[00:24] <xtremegamer> [  351.041158] usb 2-4: Optional device control through 'sysfs' interface disabled
[00:24] <xtremegamer> [  351.077817] usb 2-4: usb_submit_urb() failed, error -28
[00:24] <xtremegamer> how to solve ?
[00:24] <FloodBot1> xtremegamer: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:24] <nkvorn> ubottu, :)
[00:24] <bazhang> xtremegamer, pastebin
[00:25] <xtremegamer> bazhang ? pastebin ? you mean the website or you lost me :p
[00:25] <blooper> ive installed counter strike source thru steam using wine but now cannot load the game nor steam after a reboot
[00:25] <Andy80> ctmjr: anyway I don't have UXA enabled at the moment... I've read that is not very stable
[00:25] <bazhang> xtremegamer, means dont flood the channel in future please
[00:25] <jimisrvrox> hey guys im having probs getting an access point on my rt2500 using ubuntu 9.04 any help would be appreciated...
[00:25] <muibe> bazhang: i am not sure i understood what you tried to say with filesystem...
[00:26] <xtremegamer> yeah sorry bout that but i dont know what's important in those 3 lines
[00:26] <bazhang> muibe, ntfs? vfat? ext3? like that
[00:26] <ctmjr> Andy80: i would not worry about it if it is working now be happy
[00:27] <blooper> ive installed counter strike source thru steam using wine but now cannot load the game nor steam after a reboot
[00:27] <bazhang> blooper, please
[00:27] <blooper> yes?
[00:27] <bazhang> blooper, three repeats in 3 minutes
[00:27] <muibe> bazhang: yeah..i figured out that i should know it beforehand and a usb-memory could partitioned with whatever imaginable fs available to linux user...
[00:28] <Lostin> revstray see the "apt.conf" man file
[00:28] <blooper> ooooooooooooook
[00:28] <muibe> bazhang: so...there is no solution without i know fs beforehand?
[00:28] <bazhang> muibe, hdd or flash drive
[00:28] <Lostin> revstray "man apt.conf"
[00:28] <muibe> bazhang: hdd
[00:29] <ctmjr> blooper: have you asked in #winehq channel might have better luck
[00:29] <revstray> Lostin: yup, I've been there, I'm there right now and it says /etc/apt/apt.conf is the appropriate configuration file, but changes (and adding) that file don't seem to be making much of a differerence. My intention with these changes is to get apt to not automatically select recommended packages
[00:29] <blooper> thnxs
[00:29] <bazhang> blooper, #winehq is the place to go, as ctmjr suggests, also check appdb for how well it runs
[00:29] <bazhang> !appdb | blooper
[00:30] <Lostin> revstray Dosen't it reference and file that apt.conf sources?  Maybe I misread
[00:30] <bazhang> muibe, have you formatted the drives? if you have not they are likely ntfs
[00:30] <lulu> fr please
[00:30] <bazhang> lulu, #ubuntu-fr

[00:31] <bazhang> revstray, /etc/apt/sources.list ?
[00:31] <solexious> I'm having problems playing most dvd's on my computer, I have followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/PlayingDVDs but with no success, some times vlc will play them but totem or dd wont play/copy. It seems region 0 dvd's have no problem though...

[00:34] <trollboy> bazhang, wanna help me with my driver problem? ;-)
[00:34] <bazhang> muibe, lets keep this in channel please
[00:34] <bastidrazor> Dimitree, leave out the . in the launcher
[00:34] <happosade> !Wlan > me
[00:34] <bazhang> trollboy, will try
[00:34] <Effit> My Windows got re-imaged, and now the boot manager has disappeared
[00:34] <sandy> hi guys
[00:34] <sebsebseb> sandy: hello
[00:34] <ArchEnigma> Sorry for repeating this:
[00:34] <ArchEnigma> I need help. I want to switch from Sawfish WM back to xfwm4, but Sawfish refuses to DIE >.<
[00:34] <sandy> do we need to use any internet security for ubuntu
[00:34] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, it doesn't start that way eather :(
[00:34] <bazhang> Effit, follow the link from the bot
[00:34] <trollboy> bazhang, having a weird driver issue, linux sees it, the driver is there, BUT http://pastebin.com/m5703d5f5  its for a GSM modem, its using a Texas Instruments USB -> TTY chip in it.
[00:34] <sebsebseb> sandy: not at this time
[00:34] <bazhang> !grub | Effit
[00:34] <sebsebseb> !virus |  sandy
[00:35] <Effit> Thanks. :)
[00:35] <bastidrazor> Dimitree, have only 1 / seperating lkeyholtv
[00:35] <Dimitree> yaaar, you can download Opera 10b2 from the official website, the Deb file work even thou it's not for 9.04
[00:35] <sebsebseb> sandy: of course you should have a hardware firewall really, for example enabled in a router
[00:35] <ArchEnigma> God, every time I try to ask, a dozen people talk immediately after me to cover up my message
[00:35] <sebsebseb> sandy: and a user password that has letters and numbers in it at least
[00:35] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, yes only one / and it doesn't start, but it starts when i go to the folder in terminal and do ./lkeyholetv command
[00:35] <muibe> bazhang: sorry... hopefully you understood my motive though
[00:36] <lulu> fr please!
[00:36] <bazhang> muibe, will you be wanting them to be read only permanently; that seems an extreme method
[00:36] <bazhang> lulu, /join #ubuntu-fr
[00:36] <sandy_> i am back
[00:36] <Dimitree> yaaar, http://www.opera.com/browser/download/?ver=10.00b2
[00:36] <sandy_> got dc
[00:36] <muibe> bazhang: yes..
[00:36] <yaaar> Dimitree: yeah, i know that...but i would much rather install it from a repo so as to get automatic updates
[00:36] <ctmjr> b33r__: works good no lag or anything did not play just let it load and run a minute
[00:37] <sebsebseb> sandy_: ok so you might have missed some of my messages
[00:37] <b33r__> ctmjr, you tried the high detail right?
[00:37] <sandy_> yes
[00:37] <muibe> bazhang: it's 21th century paranoia.. :D
[00:37] <yaaar> Dimitree: and the docs on the opera site say it should work
[00:37] <ctmjr> b33r__: yep thats right
 !virus |  sandy
 sandy: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[00:37] <sandy_> * esb has quit (Read error: 60 (Operation timed out))
 a frnd told that virus not yet made for ubuntu
 but still is there any
[00:37] <FloodBot1> sandy_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:37] <Dimitree> yaaar, i don't think that Opera is in the repo anymore since it's not open source ..
 for security only
[00:38] <bazhang> sandy_, you can install clamav if you wish
[00:38] <b33r__> ctmjr, because for me it says unable to select the chosen display, though I have 180 nvidia driver and latest java so I can't figure out what's wrong :/ it used to work fine
[00:38] <sandy_> hmm
[00:38] <xtremegamer> i did sudo rmmod saa7134_alsa how to undo  this ?
[00:38] <sebsebseb> sandy_: i'll pm what I put before, and clamav scans for Windows viruses and that's about it
[00:38] <bastidrazor> Dimitree, check the path again. any spelling/case errors?
[00:38] <pagoda> when i play a song in amarok, it skips through it really fast without producing any sound.
[00:38] <Dimitree> yaaar, plus in the repo it was always Old version so you are never up to date actually ...
[00:38] <sandy_> ok
[00:38] <sebsebseb> sandy_: and those viruses won't infect  Linux distros
[00:38] <sandy_> thnx
[00:39] <yaaar> Dimitree: the repo in question is deb.opera.com ...so i doubt they're worried that it's non-free
[00:39] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, no i used the Browse button to locate the file maby thats why ?
[00:39] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, /home/t0m0rr0w/Desktop/KeyHoleTV/lkeyholetv
[00:39] <ctmjr> b33r__: you have compiz running or a composite manager running?
[00:39] <mido1> xtremegamer: sudo modprobe saa7134_alsa
[00:40] <b33r__> ctmjr, no, are you on 8.10 or 9.04? I'm on 8.10
[00:40] <xtremegamer> mido1 : it does said something about saa7134_dvb so maybe its dvb
[00:40] <bastidrazor> Dimitree, is the file executable?
[00:40] <ctmjr> b33r__: same here took me too long to get this right to upgrade
[00:40] <Dimitree> yaaar, oh wow i didn't know about that one ;) make sure you have it enabled and reload after that also in Add/Remove make sure you slected All avaliable software nto only Canonical o-o
[00:40] <cooper77z> I have 2 monitors running mirrors of each other, but I want the other monito to be an extension of the desktop, how to do?
[00:41] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, yes that option is selected in properties
[00:41] <mido1> xtremegamer: Okay. Could you name the card again? I'll have a look.
[00:41] <yaaar> Dimitree: well, i was doing it from the cli....just adding to sources.list and then doing 'apt-get update' but it gives a 404
[00:41] <xtremegamer> mido1 : i know the card by saa7134
[00:41] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, allow executing file as programm
[00:41] <ctmjr> b33r__: the only dif i see is my nvidia driver is 185
[00:41] <xtremegamer> mido1 : cheese calls it differently
[00:42] <b33r__> ctmjr, you installed it manually from nvidia website?
[00:42] <mido1> xtremegamer: what vendor/model name was printed on the box when you bougth it? ;-)
[00:42] <ctmjr> b33r__: yes it is driving a 9800gtx
[00:43] <bastidrazor> Dimitree, if the spelling/case is correct i honestly don't know.
[00:43] <xtremegamer> mido1: i know the chip on is is phillips , the card itself is from asus tiger-s something
[00:43] <b33r__> ctmjr, I'm on 8800GT it used to work fine I don't know what happened it's more than enough to run runescape
[00:43] <casey> hello
[00:43] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, ok thanks anyway
[00:43] <xtremegamer> mido1: chees says it's : ASUS P7131 4671 (/dev/video1)

[00:45] <bazhang> l3iohazard, ctrl scroll wheel does not do it?
[00:46] <nerdy_kid1> i have linux kernel 2.6.28-13, i tried installing the b43 driver via airdriver-ng.  The command wont execute because a folder its looking for doesnt exist in the source it downloads.  I was wondering what kernel version I should be running to make this work.
[00:46] <modrito> I turned off my swap with the swapoff-command and commented the swap partition away in fstab. Now I can't enable the swap-partition again, not with 'swapon -a' nor with a reboot
[00:46] <Dimitree> yaaar, sorry dude can't help more then that :/
[00:47] <masterkoppa> modrito: You should uncomment the swap partition the the fstab file and reboot. It should work then
[00:47] <mido1> xtremegamer: Okay, it's a combi: analog tv and dvb-t.
[00:47] <modrito> masterkoppa: I've done that and it doesn't work
[00:47] <casey> who was i talking to
[00:47] <mido1> xtremegamer: Is there a directory /dev/dvb?
[00:47] <ctmjr> b33r__:  it just stopped working for you that's strange
[00:48] <xtremegamer> mido1:  ill look for it a min
[00:48] <masterkoppa> modrito: Are you sure its mounted? Also does the swapon command output anything
[00:48] <xtremegamer> mido1: yes there's a map dvb
[00:48] <nerdy_kid1> i have linux kernel 2.6.28-13, i tried installing the b43 driver for my wireless card  via airdriver-ng.  The command wont execute because a folder its looking for doesnt exist in the source it downloads.  I was wondering what kernel version I should be running to make this work.
[00:48] <mido1> xtremegamer: A map?
[00:48] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, i also tryed the "Make Link" option, when the link file is in the same folder as the app, the app starts, but when i move it elsewhere it doesn't o-o
[00:48] <modrito> masterkoppa: Mounted? Do you mount a swap-partition
[00:49] <Kohlrak-Server> anyone have any idea how i can re-install a desktop after i've deleted one with tasksel?
[00:49] <modrito> masterkoppa: 'swapon -a' gives no output
[00:49] <xtremegamer> mido1:  jeh , just used explorer to find it quickly its a map
[00:49] <masterkoppa> modrito: Yeah the system mount the swap partition somewhere in /dev
[00:50] <modrito> masterkoppa: I have an encrypted swap and it's in /dev/mapper/sda3_crypt
[00:50] <owen1> i run sensors-detect and added some lines to /etc/modules. sensors shows: "No sensors found!". any clues?
[00:50] <Kohlrak-Server> ok, fine, a better question, anyone know how i can force apt-get to use an ubuntu cd in the cd drive?
[00:51] <magnetron> owen1: unless you reboot or modprobe said modules, they modules won't be loaded
[00:51] <masterkoppa> modrito: the best way to solve this would be by posting a message in the forums. For tenical problems that is the best place to solve problems.
[00:51] <owen1> magnetron: ok. what is the second option?
[00:51] <magnetron> owen1: what second option?
[00:51] <owen1> magnetron: reboot or?
[00:52] <magnetron> owen1: reboot or modprobe
[00:52] <modrito> masterkoppa: ok, thanks
[00:52] <owen1> magnetron: just type modprobe?
[00:52] <masterkoppa> modrito: np
[00:52] <magnetron> owen1: no
[00:53] <sandy_> is there any firewall enabled in ubuntu 8.04
[00:53] <sandy_> or i need to get 1 separately
[00:53] <masterkoppa> !firewall | sandy_
[00:53] <Dimitree> bastidrazor, only for information i added the executable to /usr/bin/install -c lkeyholetv /usr/local/bin  and cp -r .KeyHoleTV  /usr/local/bin and now the shortcut works systemwide :) ^_^
[00:54] <cooper77z> hi, I have 2 monitors running the exact same screen. I desire the one on the right to be an extension of the desktop, not trapped in a mirror, how do I do this?

[00:58] <cooper77z> soreau, I am running 8.04.2 with gnome
[00:59] <soreau> cooper77z: What happens if you try Sys>Prefs>Display?
[00:59] <Melchess> Hello, I'm having a compiz problem. :\ When I run compiz --replace ccp & it reads the following error: "Error: Couldn't load plugin 'ccp'" and all the windows titlebars go away and I can no longer choose any other option other than "none" in the visual effects settings of "appearances".
[00:59] <Smari> Hi there. I'm having trouble getting wireless to work on an EeePC 1005HA running with 9.04 nbr... I've already installed the backports (as per the forums) which got the wireless card up but I'm still experiencing heavy packet loss to an extent that the network is unusable.
[00:59] <soreau> Melchess: Make sure libcompizconfig is installed. Come to #compiz for more help
[01:00] <cooper77z> soreau, do you mean sys prefs appearance?
[01:00] <Melchess> Thank you soreau, I did not know that channel existed. :)

[01:01] <sandy_> is there any way to install the latest version of vlc media player
[01:01] <sandy_> not through wine
[01:02] <masterkoppa> sandy_: Not from the ubuntu repos. A quick search in google will probably point out a couple paa's with vls in them
[01:03] <sandy_> i got older version through searches
[01:03] <masterkoppa> sandy_: Im currently still waiting for an oficial realease, since I believe VLC is the best media player regardless of platform
[01:03] <sandy_> yea vlc is the best
[01:03] <masterkoppa> sandy_: Just checked their website: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/
[01:04] <masterkoppa> sandy_: They have a deb for ubuntu there
[01:04] <Kohlrak-Server> anyone have any idea how i might get my desktop back?

[01:04] <sandy_> VLC media player 0.8.6e Janus (wxWidgets interface)
[01:04] <sandy_> i have this 1
[01:04] <AlexPalmer> Can anyone tell me a command I can use to figure out what my video card is?
[01:05] <Kohlrak-Server> AlexPalmer lsmod?
[01:05] <AlexPalmer> ok, thanks
[01:05] <Smari> AlexPalmer, lspci will help
[01:05] <AlexPalmer> i'll try that
[01:05] <Kohlrak-Server> AlexPalmer: that'll only work if it sticks out to you
[01:05] <Smari> lsmod will tell you what module is being used, lspci will tell you the make of the card.

[01:11] <bazhang> trollboy, most excellent work :)
[01:11] <trollboy> bazhang, having a weird driver issue, linux sees it, the driver is there, BUT http://pastebin.com/m5703d5f5  its for a GSM modem, its using a Texas Instruments USB -> TTY chip in it.

[01:11] <xrfang> hello, what is the software to view disk usage as a pie chart and analyze which file(s) / dirs occupies the most disk space?
[01:12] <masterkoppa> xrfang: If your using ubuntu, its already isntalled by default
[01:12] <trollboy> xrfang, I think nagios might do that.. I can't think of anything specifically FOR that thoguh
[01:12] <bazhang> trollboy, whats the make and model on that modem?

[01:13] <xrfang> trollboy: nagios in repo?
[01:13] <trollboy> the driver is actually built into PuppyLinux, works directly out of the box, but puppy linux had issues for me and I'd prefer it to work in ubuntu
[01:13] <xrfang> oh I found it. thanks all

[01:16] <bazhang> ftp://ftp.multitech.com/modeminfs/linux/combined%20for%20use%20on%20the%20website/linux_install_new.zip trollboy you installed these drivers?
[01:17] <cooper77z> hi, how do I add a second monitor to extend the desktop in hardy?
[01:17] <trollboy> bazhang, those drivers do not work. They're designed for RH kernel source, and debian redid their entire USB arch mid-last year
[01:18] <djohngo> cooper77z: It depends on your video card.
[01:18] <barqers> can someone give me advice?
[01:18] <bazhang> trollboy, I see, are the drivers supported kernel-level or did you get them somewhere else
[01:18] <sebsebseb> !details |  barqers
[01:18] <bazhang> barqers, need a question
[01:18] <trollboy> well, the driver is actually distributed WITH ubuntu
[01:18] <djohngo> cooper77z: I just did it this morning using the nVidia X Server Settings.
[01:19] <barqers> I have two old computers. I want to use one as a work computer. One has two processors (not dual core), running at 1000MHz, while the other has a single core, running at 1800MHz. I'm not sure which would be the better choice!
[01:19] <trollboy> bazhang, its just a rebranded ti_usb_3410_5052.ko and after that its straight TTY
[01:19] <trollboy> the problem is the weird ti_usb_3410_5052, which is just as weird/hard to find for windows
[01:19] <blooper> what is the command to enable sound?
[01:19] <trollboy> but we DO have the driver
[01:19] <bazhang> blooper, sound in what
[01:20] <blooper> in the whole os
[01:20] <barqers> They'll be running ubuntu, so I just thought i'd ask which would be better.
[01:20] <trollboy> blooper, in your upper right hand corner you'll see a picture of a speaker, that's where you adjust volume
[01:20] <blooper> im on backtrack
[01:21] <sebsebseb> blooper: backtrack isn't supported here,  also shoudn't be used as a proper distro
[01:21] <sebsebseb> blooper: you shoudn't really use it as a desktop OS
[01:21] <barqers> Anyone?
[01:21] <blooper> but most command are simular
[01:21] <jodde> Hi guys..
[01:21] <blooper> i only need to be pointed in the right direction
[01:21] <jodde> Anyone know where the main repo is?
[01:21] <cooper77z> djohngo, does this help? VideoCard - The Inspiron 1000 has up to 64MB of shared graphics memory for basic computing needs.
[01:21] <sebsebseb> barqers: how about putting Ubuntu on both computers?
[01:22] <jodde> It used to be gusty, but I get 404s for everything.
[01:23] <bazhang> http://voluntary-simplicity.org/linux/node/10 trollboy this is the most relevant link I can find for that; it does seem a bit out of date though
[01:23] <blooper> sebsebseb: im using it as a tool, but it allows for standard destop use with wine incorporated etc.
[01:23] <bazhang> blooper, #remote-exploit  not here
[01:23] <barqers> sebsebseb: Yes, but I wanted to move the better hardware to the better processor. But I have no idea if it's better to have 2 processors at 1ghz, then 1 at 1.8ghz?
[01:23] <sebsebseb> blooper: yeah and root as default and such, which isn't good
[01:23] <blooper> im only asking for a command
[01:23] <mido1> blooper: I would use the faster.
[01:23] <bazhang> blooper, wrong channel
[01:23] <blooper> im only asking for a command
[01:24] <bazhang> blooper, #ubuntu-offtopic or #remote-exploit
[01:24] <djohngo> cooper77z: Not really.  It tells me you have a Dell, and that the graphics is integrated in the mobo.  If I had to guess, I'd say it's probably an Intel chip.
[01:24] <trollboy> bazhang, yeah that is outdated.
[01:24] <sebsebseb> barqers: a proccessor isn't that important when it comes to Ubuntu, as long as it's reasonable,  RAM on the other hand matters
[01:24] <sebsebseb> barqers: how much RAM are these computers?
[01:24] <trollboy> My hangup is getting udev to attempt to use ti_usb_3410_5052.ko to load the modem.
[01:25] <cooper77z> if you are correct, djohngo, what would be the best course of action?
[01:25] <mido1> blooper: There is no single command for enabling the sound.
[01:25] <barqers> sebsebseb: On 1 I can hold 1gb, but the other would hold 1.25. The one that holds 1.25 would be the two processors
[01:25] <SecMonk> Running jaunty on a Dell Mini 10v - cannot get the builtin mic to work.  Looked everywhere.   Anybody?
[01:25] <ctmjr> cooper77z: try this ti find your graphic card lspci | grep VGA
[01:25] <sebsebseb> barqers: ok both computers, sound like Ubuntu will be alright on them
[01:26] <trollboy> I watch dmesg on puppylinux (the distro it works out of the box with) and its doing exactly what I think ubuntu should be, just treating the multitech as a tty via the ti_usb_3410_5052.ko driver
[01:26] <pmatulis> re ubottu irc bot, i'm using encyclopedia plugin and i'm trying to get the bot to reply to users in-channel (instead of privately) when i do '!<factoid> | <nick>'
[01:26] <sebsebseb> barqers: with 1GB RAM you can even  virtual machine  Windows XP inside Ubuntu
[01:26] <barqers> sebsebseb: True. I guess it wouldn't make a difference, plus I think 1gb ram running at 400mhz is better than 1.25 running at 333mhz
[01:26] <sebsebseb> barqers: may as well install on both :)
[01:26] <bazhang> trollboy, that is most odd; sorry not be of more assistance
[01:26] <cooper77z> ctmjr, it's a 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Silicon Integrated Systems [SiS] 65x/M650/740 PCI/AGP VGA Display Adapter
[01:27] <barqers> sebsebseb: Will do! haha thanks for the help! :D
[01:27] <trollboy> bazhang, I believe the answer lies in a udev script
[01:27] <trollboy> I'll keep looking, thanks
[01:28] <casey> what is the command for delete
[01:28] <th0r> casey: rm
[01:28] <ctmjr> cooper77z: and what is the problem with it?
[01:28] <sebsebseb> barqers: ok np
[01:29] <mido1> th0r: It's not always the best idea to answer questions straight ;-)
[01:29] <cooper77z> I am trying to add a second monitor to the desktop, but I just get a mirror on the external monitor, ctmjr
[01:29] <th0r> hehehe
[01:29] <Yuki> I wish to install ubuntu on an external drive
[01:29] <Yuki> I have a host system of Gentoo
[01:29] <Yuki> I have no way to burn CDs or boot any other USB device
[01:30] <th0r> mido1: there is a reason to follow the process instead of taking the shortcut
[01:30] <Yuki> What are my best options?
[01:31] <djohngo> cooper77z: Google your brains out for as much info as you can about your video card.
[01:31] <djohngo> cooper77z: Also check out something called Xinerama
[01:31] <craigbass1976> Isn't there a way to get into cups via firefox?  localhost"4403 isn't it, but I thought it was something along those lines.  Also, anyone got an okidata microline320 working in ubuntu?
[01:32] <mido1> craigbass1976: localhost:631
[01:32] <ctmjr> cooper77z: so you want to extend the the desktop?
[01:33] <craigbass1976> mido1, do you know what the username and password is by default?
[01:33] <hacker_kid> anyone successfully installed skype on a 64x box?
[01:33] <mido1> craig: root and your root pw.
, yes I want more desktop space
[01:34] <ctmjr> !Xinerama  | cooper77z this might help
[01:34] <stovicek> Yuki: this may be of interest: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux
[01:34] <jodde> Can somebody please help me?
[01:34] <jodde> I can't install anything because none of my sources are current.
[01:35] <craigbass1976> mido1, aha.  Further, (and I know this would be the case in Windows) should I reboot now that the printer is plugged in?  Test prints aren't working, but it did see it.  The only other time I've hooked up one of these was parallel, not usb
[01:35] <bazhang> jodde, which version of ubuntu
[01:35] <jodde> 7.10
[01:35] <bazhang> !upgrade | jodde
[01:35] <bazhang> jodde, instructions at those links
[01:35] <pagoda> soreau, what's a good howto for upgrading the kernel?  and which one did you say is hould upgrade to?
[01:36] <mido1> craigbass1976: Just leave Ubuntu running ;-)
[01:36] <mido1> craigbass1976: No need to reboot for a printer or something.
[01:36] <mido1> craigbass1976: Why don't you use the normal printer setup tool from ubuntu?
[01:36] <craigbass1976> mido1, I thought it would be fine.  Just checking; I fixed a windows box for someone last night and got into the habit again :P
[01:36] <craigbass1976> mido1, it never asked to set up.  I went into printers, and there it was
[01:37] <jonex> my Ubuntu is getting frozed
[01:37] <mido1> Ah, then it was auto-detected
[01:37] <mido1> craigbass1976: Okay, and why exactly do you now want to fiddle with cups?
[01:38] <thellion> I just reinstalled ubuntu and forgot about a file i needed on the pld build, is there a way to recover with a livecd?
[01:38] <craigbass1976> mido1, I didn't know if something was messed up in the gui testing area.  Thought I'd try right from cups.  Still no love though
[01:38] <mido1> craigbass1976: 'kay, it's late in the eavening here: Ubuntu did autoconfigure your printer. It did print the test page correctly. What is bothering you?
[01:38] <pagoda> how do i upgrade my kernel?
[01:39] <craigbass1976> mido1, no test page.
[01:39] <jonex> why my ubuntu got frozed
[01:40] <mido1> craigbass1976: Okay, the printer is listed in the list of printers, correct?
[01:41] <craigbass1976> mido1, got it.    I just got a Gateway Profile 5 and installed a version of ubuntu, but no sound. The research I've been doing talks about a sigmatel sound driver?  Anyone had any experience with this?
[01:42] <cooper77z> thanks ubottu, now that is a tek. I will work on it for a while.
[01:42] <thellion> I just reinstalled ubuntu and forgot about a file i needed on the pld build, is there a way to recover?
[01:42] <bazhang> marsha, which version of ubuntu
[01:42] <thellion> -old
[01:42] <marsha> bazhang: its actually mint 6
[01:42] <HFSPLUS> HFS+ is better than EXT3
[01:43] <soreau> pagoda: Just use synaptic. Search for 'linux' then install the latest 2.6.28 image available
[01:43] <bazhang> !mintsupport | marsha
[01:43] <th0r> thellion: if you formated the drive at reinstall then no...if you didn't format at reinstall then the file should still be where you left it
[01:43] <cooper77z> ubottu, it actually led me here, but it's going to take me a while to work through
[01:43] <ozzwald> Anyone that can help me with an Ubuntu 9.04 problem?
[01:43] <blooper> depends on the problem
[01:44] <jondavis> ozzwald... what do u need help on
[01:44] <ozzwald> Yeah, there is that.  I am unable to watch any videos.  i just installed Super OS (Ubuntu), click on the video file, window pops up for a second then goes away.
[01:44] <jondavis> maybe i can help u out
[01:45] <marsha> I was just wondering if this sigmatel thing is solvable or if anyone has a suggestion....

[01:45] <jondavis> what kind of videos ozzwald

[01:46] <diiis> some1 knows waht to do?
[01:46] <blooper> ozzwald: wot viewers?

[01:47] <stovicek> !panels
[01:47] <mataks> help pls... i can't hear sound on my ubuntu... how to install sound driver/?
[01:47] <Apollo2366> is there a quick and easy way to convert a large number of .oga files to .mp3 or .wma (it doesn't matter which)?
[01:47] <jondavis> thay are good
[01:47] <ActionParsnip> thanks stovicek
[01:47] <ozzwald> None of them work however.
[01:47] <stovicek> np ActionParsnip
[01:47] <jdu> Apollo2366, probably should look into ffmpeg
[01:47] <ozzwald> I'm pretty sure I have all codecs necessary.
[01:47] <pagoda> soreau, linux-generic version <IP_ADDRESS>.17 is installed, but uname -r returns 2.6.24-16-generic
[01:47] <norcat> I have a headless computer with no monitor attached to it. I've configured Remote Desktop to work properly, but, without a monitor connected, X does not start. Is there a way to start X anyway?
[01:48] <Apollo2366> jdu, that in the repos?
[01:48] <blooper> ozzwald: do any files work in the players?
[01:48] <sudomksandwich> are there any privacy apps for ubuntu that clean out common paths to recently-used, browser history, cookies, etc... in one click?
[01:48] <ozzwald> None that I have yet tried.
[01:48] <blooper> do the players load
[01:48] <jdu> Apollo2366, yes, but it may or may not support all that you want in the repos.  It is pretty easy to compile though (there are tutorials for it)
[01:48] <jelly-bean> what's the best MTA? postfix? qmail? exim? sendmail? gmail? i am confused but need to get something setup to replace my old one.
[01:48] <soreau> pagoda: Then you'll need to edit you menu.lst so grub can load that kernel. Does 'ls /boot' show the kernel is available?
[01:48] <ozzwald> Players will load, but shut down once I point them toward a file.
[01:49] <marsha> anyone have trouble setting up sound on Gateway P4 desktop?
[01:49] <jondavis> i have vlc
[01:49] <jondavis> it works
[01:49] <blooper> i have vlc
[01:49] <mido1> sudomksandwich: firefox will clean up behind itself if configured properly.
[01:49] <pagoda> looks like it
[01:49] <blooper> i dunno then, hopefully sum1 smarter can help u
[01:49] <ozzwald> I have used VLC before in a previous version of Ubuntu, and had no problems.
[01:49] <sudomksandwich> mido1:  yeah i know, that but I'd still like to have some sort of app that can clean out all of the major areas with one click
[01:50] <pagoda> soreau, yeah.  let me see if i can figure this out
[01:50] <bazhang> ozzwald, which version of ubuntu and what kind of file
[01:50] <blooper> have u tried lookin at the ubuntu blog and support
[01:50] <ozzwald> 9.04 avi & mkv
[01:50] <mido1> sudo: Which? Apapart of these firefox cleans itself.
[01:50] <bazhang> ozzwald, you have all the codecs installed?
[01:50] <ozzwald> Didn't see anything in support, did not look at blog.
[01:50] <pagoda> do i have to change the root=UUID part?
[01:51] <pagoda> soreau, do i have to change the root=UUID part?
[01:51] <ozzwald> bazHang, I believe so.
[01:51] <Yuki> http://buffalo.nas-central.org/index.php?title=Debootstrap_Ubuntu_from_Gentoo
[01:51] <mataks> help pls... i can't hear sound on my ubuntu... how to install sound driver/?
[01:51] <Yuki> that's what i needed
[01:51] <Yuki> just a heads up
[01:51] <sudomksandwich> mido:  well, to be honest I'm not sure... I figure general use leaves some traces behind (just switched from windows... can you tell?)
[01:51] <soreau> pagoda: No
[01:51] <bazhang> ozzwald, ubuntu-restricted-extras and w32codecs from medibuntu.org ?
[01:51] <ActionParsnip> mataks: try:   amixer -q set PCM 100% unmute
[01:51] <jondavis>                         ozzwald         did you go to app/add/remove
[01:51] <Yuki> at least, to get debootstrap
[01:51] <mido1> sudomksandwich: I don't know which traces this shouldbe.
[01:52] <Apollo2366> jdu, erm... is ffmpeg only a video converter? Or does it also do audio?
[01:52] <ozzwald> bahzang let me look
[01:52] <blooper> ozzwald: in which way did u install vlc?
[01:52] <mido1> sudomksandwich: That's why I'm asking.
[01:52] <soreau> pagoda: You need to change the part that talks about vmlinuz
[01:52] <jondavis> typ in vlc
[01:52] <pagoda> soreau, and initrd right?
[01:52] <pagoda> done
[01:52] <jdu> Apollo2366, both, it is quite powerful, ( and command line only)
[01:52] <sharperguy> Is there currently a file browser which allows you to add tags to file and then browse by tag instead of directory location?
[01:52] <rocky_> cya all later
[01:52] <pagoda> soreau, rebooting
[01:53] <Yuki> hell, gentoo has a debootstrap package
[01:53] <Yuki> nice
[01:53] <marsha> Anyone had any trouble with sound on a gateway P4?
[01:53] <Apollo2366> jdu, ok, because I was looking at man ffmpeg and was only seeing video stuff
[01:53] <bazhang> marsha, on mint6?
[01:53] <ozzwald> blooper, vlc comes pre-installed in this version.  I did remove and reinstall to no effect.
[01:53] <blooper> sudo apt-get update how did u install
[01:53] <marsha> bazhang: in linux - any version
[01:53] <blooper>  how did u install
[01:54] <bazhang> marsha, not all versions of Linux are supported here
[01:54] <jdu> Apollo2366, honestly, the docs aren't that great.  however, it does do audio.
[01:54] <netsurf3> any defence of the ancients fans here?
[01:54] <bazhang> marsha, mint is supported in the mint channel
[01:54] <ChuZein> la wea
[01:54] <blooper> ozzwald: did u use console or an installation file
[01:54] <jondavis> uhhhhh     how i install is  app.add install .then typ vlc player
[01:54] <bazhang> netsurf3, yes in #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:54] <netsurf3> *sigh*
[01:54] <marsha> bazhang: yes I understand that - just trying to find out if this sound thing is a problem in general with linux
[01:54] <ozzwald> blooper, console
[01:55] <Entelin> ive got a headset working fine, I can record and hear stuff.  the problem is that I can also hear the mic... how do I disable that?
[01:55] <Entelin> i dont want to hear myself when I talk naturally
[01:55] <jdu> Apollo2366, what features are available (primarily which codecs) is primary of function of how it was compiled.
[01:56] <marsha> Entelin: I have a sound problem too - I have a Gateway profile 5.  How about you?
[01:56] <mason> can anyone tell me how to make my motu run with linux?
[01:57] <Entelin> marsha, the soundcard is a sblive
[01:57] <bazhang> ozzwald, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[01:57] <marsha> Entelin: how did you find out which card
[01:58] <mason> thank you!
[01:58] <Entelin> i just know,  but you could find out yours by doing an  lspci as root
[01:58] <bazhang> ozzwald, then head over to medibuntu.org and the instructions are on the site (no need for the repos) w32codecs
[01:58] <mason> ok!
[01:59] <ActionParsnip> Entelin: lspci can be ran as user
[01:59] <Stanley_> I need help setting up TinyProxy if anybody has any experience..?
[02:00] <marsha> lspci showed Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER (ICH5/ICH5R) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 2)
[02:00] <drgbr> can someone help me with trayer + xmobar in xmonad?
[02:00] <drgbr> when i launch trayer, it keeps displaying its borders
[02:01] <ozzwald> bazhang, thanks going there now
[02:01] <marsha> what should the sound module be for Intel Corporation 82801EB/ER?
[02:01] <toyimp> What's a decent IRC client? I'm not liking irssi much :P
[02:01] <jdu> drgbr, I doubt many people here use xmonad.  In other tiling wms, I have used, it was possible to change the type of tile it was; not sure about xmonad though.
[02:02] <craigbass1976> toyimp, xchat works for me.  On windows boxes, chatzilla
[02:02] <jdu> toyimp, xchat is good
[02:02] <marsha> !sound
[02:02] <bazhang> ozzwald, mkv are pretty much playable by vlc with the proper codecs installed
[02:02] <ActionParsnip> toyimp: i use pidgin
[02:02] <jondavis> ozzwald what err are you geting on vlc player
[02:02] <ActionParsnip> !irc > toyimp
[02:02] <bazhang> oops
[02:02] <toyimp> what about something similar to the setup of mIRC? (But for linux of course)
[02:03] <toyimp> no clue how to check private messages on irssi :(
[02:03] <trollboy> bazhang, ozzwald vlc has the drivers for mkv's built right in, so it should work out of the box for you
[02:03] <drgbr> jdu, xmonad is able to do that.. but trayer is an application to be used to display tray icons.. i put it where i wanted it on the screen and used the options for it to be handled as a dock, but the borders are still there :(.. but thx anyway
[02:03] <ActionParsnip> toyimp: try a few, see which you like
[02:03] <lstarnes> toyimp: switch to the irssi window containing the messages
[02:03] <bazhang> trollboy, ok thanks for the info :)
[02:03] <lstarnes> toyimp: you can use /window <number> to change windows
[02:03] <toyimp> ty
[02:03] <lstarnes> toyimp: also, alt+<number>
[02:03] <bazhang> toyimp, konversation, kvirc, xchat, weechat, there are a number of others
[02:04] <toyimp> kk that's a good list. Thanks guys/gals!
[02:04] <lstarnes> toyimp: you could also use '/alias w window' to use /w <number>
[02:04] <trollboy> bazhang,  vlc doesn't use the stock ubuntu codecs, its all internalized.  You'd want the gstreamer codecs if you were using xine, mplayer, totem or the like.
[02:04] <trollboy> that's part of how it "just works with everything on everything"
[02:04] <lstarnes> toyimp: irssi also has its own channel on this network, #irssi
[02:04] <bazhang> trollboy, good point
[02:04] <ActionParsnip> Stanley_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122011

[02:10] <richardcavell> jondavis: hello
[02:10] <Katniss> When playing audio in totem with visualisations enabled, I tend to have skips in the music any time I open another file, (image, large document, etc) is there a way to fix that? or does it boil down to don't use totem, cause it sucks, and someone was smoking crack when they made it default? :P
[02:11] <bazhang> jondavis, offtopic chat in #ubuntu-offtopic NOT here
[02:11] <richardcavell> pagoda: change the shortcut - right click on the icon
[02:11] <ActionParsnip> Stanley_: http://www.pilpi.net/journal/item-985.php

[02:16] <adrian_> ActionParsnip: i did but nobody seems to care to answer

[02:23] <dahlia> I have an everex st2052 laptop and I'd like to try 9.04 on it, but when I try to load from the cd the little yellow bar only goes about 1/8 of the way across and stops

[02:23] <arand> !FF3-5 > stryker
[02:23] <tbaxter> Can someone point me in the direction of a resource, IRC room or similar that would be able to help me? My google-foo isn't working out. My system has been spontaneously locking up since 8.10 came out and I believe I've isolated ath9k drivers for my wireless as the cause. I don't know where to find a solution.

[02:25] <ActionParsnip> stryker: you can uninstall the original 3.0.11 if you wish
[02:25] <stryker> ActionParship: via synaptics manager or add/remove?
[02:26] <casey> how do i make a sourtcut
[02:26] <neno> hi, i am using scim on jaunty and have the problem that it doenst work on flash  for example   sharedtalk. is that a known issue =
[02:26] <marsha> Because lspci shows controllder 82801EB/ER and under capabilities : access denied - is that a permissions issue - should there be a ground called "sound?"
[02:26] <stryker> ActionParship: ah, nicknamed Shiretoko
[02:26] <linux_trojan> I wonder what ever happned to BITCHX
[02:27] <mattwj2002> hey guys I have a question
[02:27] <mattwj2002> :)
[02:27] <Yuki> I need the release file for hardy for debootstrap
[02:27] <wlodi> Do you know how to speed up Eclipse in jaunty as it is veeeeery slow now.
[02:27] <linux_trojan> anyone use Kino to capture camcorder output?
[02:27] <ActionParsnip> linux_trojan: development stopped, the code is still available so you can compile it
[02:28] <linux_trojan> lol Action
[02:28] <linux_trojan> I liked BitchX
[02:28] <Oli``> wlodi: try another JRE. Either use the Sun JRE or (if you already are) try OpenJDK/etc
[02:28] <anto9us> casey, if it's an application in your menu then you can drag it out
[02:28] <casey> its a folder
[02:28] <wlodi> Oli``: Thanks I'll try that
[02:29] <mattwj2002> does anyone know if this wireless card will work with Ubuntu Linux?  It says it supports Linux?
[02:29] <mattwj2002> http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=105&cp_id=10501&cs_id=1050103&p_id=5338&seq=1&format=2
[02:29] <anto9us> casey, click, drag, shift key, release
[02:29] <stryker> ActionParsnip: thanks, it everything worked fine!
[02:29] <casey> ok
[02:30] <Oli``> mattwj2002: that uses the ralink rt2760 wifi chipset.. see this recent(ish) thread: Ralink RT2760
[02:30] <anto9us> casey, wait, sorry
[02:30] <italyeneralessi> ciao
[02:30] <ActionParsnip> mattwj2002: its a Ralink RT2760 + RT2720
[02:30] <Oli``> ergl mattwj2002 -- i mean: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=996557
[02:30] <linux_trojan> well I guess I will keep trying on my camcorder, I deleted all my windows partitions so I dont have access to windows for this problem

[02:31] <casey> ok
[02:31] <pagoda> when i upgraded to intrepid, my shutdown bar went away.  now there' just the clock and system tray, and i have to shut down through the system menu.  how can i get it back?
[02:31] <casey> ty
[02:31] <Oli``> mattwj2002: the short of it: it appeared to work fine in 9.04 out the box (at least when 9.04 was in alpha)
[02:31] <mattwj2002> does it work with 9.04 final?
[02:32] <mattwj2002> anyone know? :)
[02:32] <mattwj2002> I just bought it :-s
[02:32] <trollboy> pagoda, try right clicking the menu bar and selecting Add to Panel
[02:32] <pagoda> trollboy, there's just a shutdown icon...
[02:33] <Oli``> mattwj2002: even if it doesn't work out the box, ralink provide drivers you can compile in with a little bit of effort
[02:33] <trollboy> pagoda, what about User Switcher
[02:33] <mattwj2002> awesome thanks you guys :)
[02:33] <thehook> doesn't ubuntu 8.04 have the meta package build-essential?
[02:33] <trollboy> In the newest version, you can switch versions, restart, logout OR shutdown all from the same dialog
[02:33] <pagoda> trollboy, that works thanks
[02:33] <Cyber_Akuma> ..... my xbox is creepy.....
[02:35] <neno> the new version of firefox is called shiretoko ?
[02:35] <bruenig> neno: yes
[02:35] <tbaxter> Can someone point me in the direction of a resource, IRC room or similar that would be able to help me? My google-foo isn't working out. My system has been spontaneously locking up since 8.10 came out and I believe I've isolated ath9k drivers for my wireless as the cause. I don't know where to find a solution. (reposting once in case)
[02:36] <Cyber_Akuma> shiretoko? what does that even mean
[02:36] <Oli``> neno: that's the development name... they scrap the dev names when they release (3.0 was minefield IIRC)
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> !info build-essential | thehook
[02:36] <Cyber_Akuma> I mean, fennec is a type of fox, is shiretoko?
[02:36] <Oli``> Cyber_Akuma: it's a city
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> Cyber_Akuma: its the codename of F3.5
[02:36] <ActionParsnip> !shiretoko
[02:36] <Oli``> err national park even
[02:36] <anto9us> thehook, if I recall correctly, yes
[02:37] <neno> ok , now the new version didnt help me to get scim working for flash
[02:37] <gobucks09> nvidia problem here. Installed nvidia-common & nvidia-glx-71 but nvidia X server settings says must run nvidia-config as root and restart x.  When I sudo nvidia-config, I get a command not found error.  Where is it supposed to be if not in my path?
[02:37] <stryker> erm, flash 64 bit should work fine under shiretoko, right?
[02:37] <ActionParsnip> Cyber_Akuma: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiretoko
[02:37] <ActionParsnip> stryker: works great here
[02:38] <Oli``> stryker: don't see why not
[02:38] <stryker> kay, but im quite not sure where to create the plugin folder for it, as i used to do with firefox
[02:38] <cooper77z> hi, how do I get those 2 little boxes that stand for desktops back on my toolbar?
[02:38] <ActionParsnip> stryker: mkdir ~/.mozilla/plugins
[02:38] <ActionParsnip> stryker: put the .so in there
[02:39] <stryker> ActionParship: ah, thanks
[02:39] <anto9us> gobucks09, nvidia-xconfig
[02:39] <neno> does anyone know , why scim doesn't work on flash ?
[02:39] <mataks> help pls.. my sound volume is too low i can't almost hear... how to max the volume?
[02:40] <stryker> ActionParsnip: Thanks! working fine now :D
[02:40] <ActionParsnip> stryker: simple, i never use the repo method
[02:40] <stryker> anybody know if there is a hamachi version for linux?
[02:41] <thehook> anto9us: ActionParsnip: im sorry i am testing a script on different versions of ubuntu and debian, so i forgot to update package database in the hurry :) thanks anyway
[02:41] <gobucks09> anto9us: ah, says nvidia-xconfig in ...-glx-96, -173, -180.  I'm trying to use ...-glx-71 for my RIVA TNT2
[02:41] <stryker> ActionParsnip: I've used ubuntu on and off for a while, i just always ended up taking it off because none of the games I wanted to play would work...
[02:41] <thehook> ActionParsnip: have you tried cedega?
[02:41] <gobucks09> will 96 run a TNT2 MODEL 65?
[02:41] <ActionParsnip> thehook: a little, not worth the cash
[02:42] <gobucks09> ... um... TNT2 MODEL 64
[02:42] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: 71 seems to be the one
[02:42] <neno> im getting ignored, scim ime anthy , anyone ?
[02:43] <gobucks09> Action...: right, but no nvidia-Xconfig & nvidia-config not found?
[02:43] <thehook> ActionParsnip: if it support your games it's worth the cash :P you know you can pay the smallest amount install it, aand stop the subscription, and it still works.. $30 or something is worth it
[02:43] <queso> where can I get help with LyTeX?
[02:43] <anto9us> gobucks09, you can edit the xorg.conf yourself, I think you should replace the driver with "nvidia"
[02:43] <bazhang> neno, scim on flash? what do you mean
[02:43] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: no need for it, simply run: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-71     then reboot
[02:44] <neno> scim the tool to write japanese chinese or whatever ... and it doesnt work on flash for some reason
[02:44] <ActionParsnip> thehook: true, if you need the functionality then go for it
[02:44] <bazhang> neno, skim/scim are input methods
[02:44] <anto9us> gobucks09, do as ActionParsnip suggests
[02:45] <bazhang> neno, what does this have to do with flash
[02:45] <neno> bazhang, i'm on a chatsite that uses flash
[02:46] <bazhang> neno, which one
[02:46] <neno> sharedtalk.com
[02:46] <gobucks09> Action...: used synaptic to install it.  sudo ... says "...already the newest version..."  nothing to do.
[02:47] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: ok, can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:48] <Sickki> any ideas how to fix karmic koala installation failing with those error messages? http://pastebin.com/m6b389a43
[02:48] <bazhang> neno, site seems to be broken; does not allow for sign ups
[02:48] <gobucks09> anto9us: xorg.conf is like nothing I've seen before on Xubuntu 9.04  It has almost nothing in it.
[02:48] <bazhang> Sickki, #ubuntu+1 for that
[02:48] <itai_michaelson> hi, i'm using Hardy and it suddeny doesnt burn CD, it can read CDs but it keeps saying that blanc CDs are not blanc so it can't read them
[02:48] <Sickki> ok
[02:49] <ActionParsnip> !karmic | Sickki
[02:49] <anto9us> gobucks09, yeah, it's all changed now with bulletproof x
[02:49] <anto9us> gobucks09, you've rebooted, yes?
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: it is by default but some folks (like me) need to populate it
[02:50] <cordor_> hi, is the package firefox3.5 an upgrade? or it will install another firefox on my computer?
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: can you give a pastebin of yours please
[02:50] <lstarnes> cordor_: it's a different package
[02:50] <ActionParsnip> cordor_: its a seperate app, you can uninstall the 3.0.11 if you wish
[02:50] <bazhang> neno, at any rate, if you can sign up, you may wish to install quick-locale-switcher in FF plugins, that seems to help with problematic sites sometimes
[02:51] <cordor_> thanks.
[02:51] <gobucks09> yes, several times.  driver is not loading.  Can't see log because goes straight to graphic.  um.. haven't done this before... ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/233576/
[02:52] <happy> does any1 know how i can partition my Windows to Ubuntu ?
[02:52] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: theres nothing there. it only says: minus the comments...
[02:52] <gobucks09> um... ? http://paste.ubuntu.com/233578/
[02:53] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: better, ok add a line under configured video device that says      Driver "nvidia"
[02:53] <happy> i partitioned my Jackalope too small now I wnt to convert the rest of my Windows to Ubuntu, does ne1 know how?
[02:54] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: if you use an old-ish crt you may need to specify refresh rates and colour depths etc
[02:54] <anto9us> happy, you can boot off the live cd, remove windows partition then resize ubuntu partition to fill the space
[02:55] <mattwj2002> hey guys I have another question
[02:55] <gobucks09> Action...: where to specify that?  Normally it's an easy edit.
[02:55] <neno> im angry about scim
[02:55] <itai_michaelson> guys, hardy cannot mount a blanc CD, but can see a full one, what can i do?
[02:55] <mattwj2002> will this work with Ubuntu?
[02:55] <mattwj2002> http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10407&cs_id=1040702&p_id=2667&seq=1&format=2
[02:55] <tavelram_> Im contemplating installing ubuntu to a laptop with 700mhz/192/7GiB, how suitable would ubuntu (or probably xubuntu) be? the usage would be like x-window + a few vim-windows...
[02:55] <happy> tx
[02:55] <mattwj2002> I know it works with Linux
[02:55] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:56] <Yuki> sigh
[02:56] <ActionParsnip> mattwj2002: ubuntu is a distrivbution of linux
[02:56] <Yuki> deboostrap forgot to give me apt-get
[02:56] <Yuki> :)
[02:56] <bazhang> neno, its not scim, its that website
[02:56] <mattwj2002> I don't need RAID...I just need to add an additional sata drive
[02:56] <anto9us> happy, it's in System | Administration tools | Partition Editor
[02:56] <mattwj2002> ActionParsnip this is true
[02:57] <ActionParsnip> tavelram_: i'd install xubuntu but it will be fine, for super lightness you can install lxde instead of using xfce
[02:57] <neno> bazhang,  why should it be the website ? i used scim once on that website
[02:57] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: once you save the new file, reboot
[02:58] <gobucks09> Action...: ok, will try
[02:58] <bazhang> neno, then check the global configuration or try the FF plugin as I suggested
[02:58] <mattwj2002> are sata controller basically handed in bios mostly?
[02:58] <tavelram_> ActionParsnip, ok, but I assume that Im able to disable alot of things in a ubuntu systems? sshd and other stuff that might be running that i dont need...
[02:58] <ActionParsnip> mattwj2002: they are handled by the soutbridge
[02:58] <mattwj2002> okay
[02:59] <ActionParsnip> tavelram_: sure you can modify what runs a lot, sshd is not installed by default
[02:59] <anto9us> mattwj2002, as a precaution you may want to put /boot somewhere that you're sure the bios can see
[02:59] <tavelram_> ActionParsnip, ok, yeah, kind of a bad example :p
[02:59] <neno> bazhang,that plugin doesnt do anything
[03:00] <mattwj2002> ok
[03:00] <bazhang> neno, then check the configuration
[03:00] <ActionParsnip> tavelram_: i know what you mean man, you can use bum to reduce startup processes
[03:01] <mattwj2002> thanks for all of the good advice guys
[03:01] <happy> anto9usL i dont have partition editor
[03:02] <mattwj2002> :D
[03:02] <mataks> i have a dual boot vista n ubuntu.. how can i access my vista files to ubuntu.. like ntfs mount something.. help pls.
[03:02] <anto9us> happy, it's on the live cd
[03:02] <happy> im using Jackalope
[03:02] <happy> ok thx
[03:02] <happy> i will try it
[03:03] <anto9us> happy, you need to use the live cd, you can't resize a partition you're using
[03:03] <happy> ok will try it ASAP thx
[03:04] <neno> i feel like ,to suicide now
[03:04] <gobucks09> Action...: gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesn't work on xubuntu.  no gedit?  did sudo mousepad instead.  will reboot now.
[03:06] <neno> bazhang, srsly , that plugin isnt what i need ...

[03:14] <conold> how to know if i have specified more than one repository?
[03:16] <anto9us> Dayofswords, don't quite no what you're asking but I tried it, didn't work too well for me could be down to personal preference
[03:16] <conold> for every program i want to install, i am told to load in hundred MB of stuff.
[03:17] <anto9us> s/no/know, damn, spent too much time on facebook recently
[03:17] <Dayofswords> i was just wondering cuz the img is 900mb and the iso for desktop is 700mb
[03:18] <conold> hey?
[03:18] <Volkodav> How do I upgrade to xfce 4.6.1 in 9.04 64 bit ?
[03:18] <anto9us> Dayofswords, aah, I installed it after a standard install
[03:18] <ActionParsnip> conold: do you by any chance run kubuntu and just tried to install firefox?
[03:18] <Volkodav> it's over 3 months that it is released and it is still not in repos ?
[03:18] <ActionParsnip> !info xfce4
[03:19] <Volkodav> ActionParsnip  Version 4.6.0
[03:19] <mataks> what is the program in ubuntu that is like winamp in windows?
[03:19] <Volkodav> I need 4.6.1
[03:19] <axisys> i am looking for a way copy a dvd
[03:19] <axisys> what is a good tool ?
[03:19] <ActionParsnip> Volkodav: whats new in 4.6.1?
[03:20] <mechtech> do I have a native p2p file sharing software?
[03:20] <Volkodav> quite a bit mostly bugfixes http://www.xfce.org/documentation/changelogs/4.6.1
[03:21] <StrangeCharm> can i get a file over an ssh connection without using any other software?
[03:21] <anto9us> mataks, http://www.osalt.com/winamp shows a few options
[03:21] <abbazabba> hey everyone, abbazabba again..
[03:21] <kitche> StrangeCharm: yes using scp
[03:21] <ActionParsnip> axisys: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jerome-guelfucci/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
[03:21] <ActionParsnip> axisys: you will need: gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 0E23917F5D9DCE6C; gpg --export --armor 0E23917F5D9DCE6C | sudo apt-key add -
[03:21] <StrangeCharm> kitche does that require any change on the server?
[03:22] <kitche> StrangeCharm: shouldn't it's just ssh cp it's part of the openssh
[03:22] <ActionParsnip> axisys: you will need: gksudo mousepad /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:22] <ActionParsnip> !sshfs
[03:23] <abbazabba> i'm finally building a small gaming rig (4gigs, 4870, 500gb) and with that hard drive, i plan on dual booting vista x64 and ubuntu 9 x64... however, the problem lies in how would i go about storing music/videos/games which both operating systems could access, change, add and play?
[03:23] <anto9us> mechtech, yes, bittorrent client is installed by default
[03:23] <axisys> ActionParsnip: where are you leading me too? still looking for a dvd copiers
[03:23] <ActionParsnip> axisys: sorry, mixed wires
[03:23] <straddlethefence> i have a tonne of files whose permissions are root for everything, what command for terminal would i use to change all permissions to user aj
[03:24] <ActionParsnip> Volkodav: see above
[03:24] <mechtech> anto9us:  was thinking more along the lines of file by file like limewire, or soulseek
[03:24] <ActionParsnip> straddlethefence: sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /path/to/stuff
[03:24] <straddlethefence> ty
[03:24] <ActionParsnip> straddlethefence: is it all of your home directory by any chance?
[03:24] <ctmjr> axisys: acidrip is one of many
[03:24] <straddlethefence> separate hd
[03:25] <ActionParsnip> straddlethefence: been running gui apps with sudo by any chance
[03:25] <straddlethefence> yes DX
[03:26] <anto9us> straddlethefence, sudo chown youruser:yourgroup yourpath -R
[03:26] <ActionParsnip> dx?
[03:26] <ActionParsnip> anto9us: you can use $USER for that ;)
[03:26] <straddlethefence> ok
[03:26] <axisys> ctmjr: thanks
[03:27] <anto9us> ActionParsnip, thanks :)
[03:27] <ctmjr> axisys: your welcome
[03:27] <Dayofswords> abbazabba: what i have is a home server that i stream my music from inside my lan, but i do think thats what your going for =p
[03:28] <anto9us> night night
[03:28] <Dayofswords> *i dont
[03:28] <Volkodav> ActionParsnip this ==>deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/jerome-guelfucci/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main
[03:28] <neno> scim doesnt work with flash < fact , but why ?
[03:28] <ActionParsnip> Volkodav: yes, you will also need the command i gave after
[03:29] <ActionParsnip> neno: flash is proprietary garbage to adobe so them nitegrating with prety much anything else is probably never gonna happen
[03:29] <abbazabba> Dayofswords: haha yeah nah, i'm thinking of just putting each of the o.s.'s on it's own 50gb partition then use the rest for both, but how would i go about letting both actively add content to it and what not?
[03:29] <ActionParsnip> Volkodav: add that deb line to /etc/apt/sources.lst
[03:29] <Mr_Bag> ActionParsnip: Seems to have worked - Thanks for the help :D
[03:29] <ActionParsnip> Mr_Bag: np bro
[03:29] <nDevastator> anyone care to help me get java working in mozilla
[03:30] <abbazabba> like i'll be on ubuntu, find a cd, download it to there.. then jump on windows, download a video to the partition.. is this all possible or nah?
[03:30] <nDevastator> i think i have successfully installed java already
[03:30] <Volkodav> ActionParsnip - oh the key ! Sure - Thanks for help
[03:31] <nDevastator> how do i make java work in mozilla i have installed java already
[03:32] <netlarip> Is it a good option to buy a computer that has Ubuntu install already?
[03:32] <nDevastator> when you say good option what do you mean ?
[03:32] <ActionParsnip> Volkodav: all i did was websearch
[03:32] <nDevastator> is it cheaper ?
[03:32] <netlarip> I mean they have they have worked out any bugs?
[03:32] <nDevastator> if not... i would get the windows serial just to have it
[03:32] <nDevastator> bugs ?
[03:33] <nDevastator> which version
[03:33] <nDevastator> of ubuntu
[03:33] <FloodBot1> nDevastator: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:33] <nDevastator> >.>
[03:33] <netlarip> Between the hardware and the os
[03:33] <nDevastator> if you use an older version of a build it tends to be more stable
[03:34] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: you will find the hardware is very linux compatible or easy to make work
[03:34] <Chakravanti>  okay so i installed slackware 12.2 with Lilo on the root partition and GRub chainloading lilo, i'm STILL getting 'Error 11: Unrecognised device string' when i try to boot Slackware from GRUB with this menu.lst: http://www.pastebin.org/4264 and fdisk -l: http://www.pastebin.org/4241 anyone know what im doing wrong here?
[03:34] <straddlethefence> i'm in the current directory of all the files whose permissions i want to change, i typed in sudo chown -R $USER:$USER *, permissions don't change, my user name is aj
[03:34] <nDevastator> netlarip imo unless you pay less for a ubuntu comp i would just get the windows comp and keep the serial number.. and then just install ubuntu.. maybe dual boot
[03:34] <StrangeCharm> does the ssh server allow pub/priv key authentication by default?
[03:35] <ActionParsnip> StrangeCharm: sure
[03:35] <StrangeCharm> ActionParsnip-  as in, it doesn't have to be specifically enabled?
[03:35] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: I know it is for someone that has that iclination
[03:35] <gobucks09> ActionParsnip:  that didn't work, nvidia drivers did not load.  x wouldn't start without reconfig.  back to default.  All I'm trying to do is center the screen & switch to 1280x1024 in 60hz mode.  Usually, I would edit the xorg.conf to do this, but this one barren & there are no comments for a guide.  Plus xsync start/end aren't right.  Is there an app I can install that adjusts this?
[03:36] <netlarip> But not for someone that is looking to send email or browse the net
[03:37] <nDevastator> netlarip i honestly wouldnt recommend ubuntu to a non computer friendly person =D
[03:37] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: no, if its preinstalled yuo dont have to do any config, just like you dont buy a windows system and have to configure it
[03:38] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: Exactly
[03:38] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: you can edit xorg.conf as you normally world. it works the same
[03:38] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: Dell does that right?
[03:38] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: xorg.conf will superced anything that hal finds
[03:39] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: if you buy it from dell, yes
[03:39] <Gain> can someone explain to me how ACLs work?
[03:39] <alex__> Does anyone know if you can make it so when you use the volume control on your keyboard, the little box that shows where the volume is at doesn't come up?
[03:40] <netlarip> Just I have noticed that Ubuntu is more user friendly once it is set up
[03:40] <ActionParsnip> Gain: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_control_list
[03:40] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: more usr friendly than what?
[03:40] <netlarip> Windows
[03:41] <alex__> netlarip: The only thing I've seen that doesn't automatically just work hardware wise is wireless and of course your graphics card
[03:41] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: its personal preference and config really
[03:41] <ActionParsnip> alex__: mine works out of the box ;)
[03:41] <alex__> ActionParsnip: Maybe your wireless, but if you have a gfx card you had to install a driver =P
[03:41] <ctmjr> netlarip: it would depend on who you buy the computer from if it is a name brand installed by them then you should have plenty of support but one from a third party i would suggest windows then install linux
[03:42] <alex__> ActionParsnip: My wireless card is REALLY old... so I guess they never put drivers in the kernal for it...
[03:42] <mido1> alex: I've got a graphics card and didn't install any driver...
[03:42] <ActionParsnip> alex__: true but its part of my setup script, rips out about a gig of guff, installs java, flash and install nvidia driver then adds network config files and dns settings. Good times
[03:42] <alex__> mido1: Then you don't have full 3d functionality of it
[03:43] <netlarip> ActionParsnip:  i suppose , but I have used all three major os and Ubuntu was the eaiest to use
[03:43] <mido1> Indeed I have.
[03:43] <gobucks09> Does Xfce has anything similar to KDE's "Remote Places" that allows a user to browse to NFS & Samba shares?
[03:43] <alex__> ActionParsnip: That's more complicated than netlarip is planning on getting into ;)
[03:43] <BitTorrent> Hi all, why my Transmission BitTorrent so fast download? Down 2 Mb/s and Up 115 Kb/s. on 129 peer. oh NO. NO. lo
[03:43] <Gain> anyone here familiar with access control lists in Ubuntu
[03:43] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: ubuntu isnt an OS per se
[03:43] <mido1> alex: But that card just doesn't require a proprietary driver.
[03:43] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: its a distribution of linux, have you tried BSD?
[03:43] <alex__> mido1: What card is it?
[03:43] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: Well ok a distro then
[03:44] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: bsd is similar to linux but is a different os
[03:44] <mido1> alex: So, just if your card is not supported by open source drivers, you have to install proprietary ones. Otherwise, Ubuntu manages everything itself.
[03:44] <mido1> alex: Various. Intel onboard (which is no graphics card) and ATI Radeon 7500.
[03:44] <BitTorrent> Why so fast?  I Hate you. ever and ever. lol
[03:44] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: you will also find different quirks in each distribution you try
[03:45] <mido1> alex: Although an Matrox G450 in one of my PCs.
[03:45] <ActionParsnip> BitTorrent: you can gate it if you want, makes web browsing faster
[03:45] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: Well ubuntu seem to have the most polish
[03:45] <alex__> mido1: I agree that onbard don't always, but I said a graphics card. And ok, you got me on the Matrox =P
[03:45] <mido1> And the ATI ;)
[03:45] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: if you gauge an OSs value by gloss then i pity yuo
[03:46] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: No not for me
[03:46] <mido1> alex: You're right with all modern Nvidia and ATI/AMD cards.
[03:46] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: For family
[03:46] <alex__> mido1: 95% of everyone with a graphics card falls into that category so... That's why I said what I did =P
[03:46] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: still the same, i'd rather something with a bit of performance
[03:46] <mido1> alex: And I agree.
[03:47] <mido1> alex: Luckily, with ubuntu, the driver installation is no problem. At least in most cases.
[03:47] <bazhang> BitTorrent, chat in #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:47] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: Performance means little if it is not that intuitive
[03:47] <BitTorrent> ActionParsnip: Thank you, I wanna download in all my life. ever and ever. yummy yummy. Down 2033 KB/s Up 123 KB/s. oh NO oh NO. please don't so fast. I hate you Transmission BitTorrent.
[03:48] <Oli``> BitTorrent: use Deluge or another client if you need to limit speeds
[03:48] <alex__> mido1: Yeah. I just wish that ATI would get better drivers for linux >.> None of them do well with multiple monitor support =(
[03:48] <nnull> how can i get vbox to give me beter resolution than 800x600 with kubuntu host, ubuntu guest ?
[03:48] <ctmjr> BitTorrent: i believe that is off toppic but you should learn to throttle your client
[03:48] <ActionParsnip> BitTorrent: i do or it will max my connection and when you are looking after servers via RDP, you need the speed
[03:48] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> oh wow, im still connected?
[03:48] <mido1> alex: What was the trouble with your graphics card?
[03:48] <Oli``> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun: yup
[03:49] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> oops
[03:49] <ActionParsnip> nnull: instal the guest additions
[03:49] <alex__> mido1: Well, on their last driver version, it would reset both screens to the lesser screens resolution every time I rebooted.
[03:49] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: So you do not think Ubuntu performs well?
[03:49] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> good thing I noticed, it would have finished downloading with an hour and install a ton of software
[03:49] <FLJohn> My Terminal will not let me type.  What is wrong?  I type in the command to reset Wine and then it asked for my password but would not register anything my keyboard typed.
[03:49] <JonathanK> Hello all
[03:49] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> FLJohn: thats normal
[03:49] <BitTorrent> to all: full moon tonight. I'm so happy.
[03:49] <alex__> mido1: Now this one, whenever I try to set up the Xinerama thing, when I reboot, X server never starts
[03:50] <Cyber_Akuma-Ubun> it dosen't show oyu typing your password
[03:50] <alex__> mido1: Meant X session
[03:50] <ActionParsnip> netlarip: the default settings are pretty poor
[03:50] <mido1> alex: Hm!
[03:50] <ActionParsnip> nnull: here is an xorg.conf you can use  http://jamesselvakumar.wordpress.com/2008/02/22/increasing-the-screen-resolution-of-ubuntu-710-on-virtualbox/
[03:50] <mido1> alex: But you configured everything with nvidia-settings?
[03:50] <netlarip> ActionParsnip: Ahh ok
[03:50] <Oli``> Cyber_Akuma-Ubun: try running setxkbmap
[03:50] <ActionParsnip> nnull: you need to install the additions first
[03:50] <FLJohn> I just rebooted and would still not register.  Why is that normal?
[03:50] <neno> does anyone use scim, anthy ?
[03:50] <alex__> mido1: Sorry?
[03:50] <Peddy> Is it possible to connect to a wireless network without using a GUI program such as Network-manager?
[03:51] <bruenig> Peddy: yes
[03:51] <bazhang> neno, yes
[03:51] <bazhang> Peddy, sure
[03:51] <bruenig> Peddy: networkmanager is just a front end for command line tools
[03:51] <alex__> mido1: It's an ATI card... I used their Catalyst Control Center...
[03:51] <neno> bazhang,  funny dude ... lol
[03:51] <mido1> alex: When you set up xinerama and changed the resolution, you did this via nvidia-settings, or manually in the xorg.conf?
[03:51] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 Peddy
[03:51] <mido1> alex: Sorry.
[03:51] <bruenig> Peddy: in short, iwconfig, iwlist, dhclient
[03:51] <alex__> mido1: You just had me confused for a second =P
[03:52] <mido1> alex: I thinking it's an nvidia card.
[03:52] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: sure, add the info to /etc/network/interfaces
[03:52] <nnull> ActionParsnip: cheers
[03:52] <mido1> +was
[03:52] <alex__> mido1: From everything I've heard nVidia cards work great with linux
[03:52] <mido1> Indeed they do.
[03:52] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: its how i configure my desktops. i also use static ip
[03:53] <alex__> Crap
[03:53] <Peddy> Thanks bazhang and bruenig. The reason for this is because I have a headless 'server' with wireless, but it can't start X until a screen is detected (I'm VNCing in), and I can't VNC in until it's connected to the network :P
[03:53] <mido1> I always prefered ATI because of the free drivers. But nowadays... I'd prefer nvidia.
[03:53] <alex__> Woah!
[03:53] <Peddy> I'll have a look, thanks ActionParsnip.
[03:53] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: you can use a virtual x server for vnc, i wouldnt run an x server on a server
[03:53] <alex__> mido1: Wtf rofl, I accidentally reset my internet connection, and I didn't get kicked out of IRC rofl
[03:54] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: why do you need vnc?
[03:54] <mido1> Lucky man, timeout was long enough ;-)
[03:54] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, I just want to remotely be able to control the computer. I'll use whatever works best, but since Vinagre and its tools are included in a default installation, I tried them.
[03:54] <Gain> Access Control Lists anyone?
[03:54] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: ok but what are you VNCing over to do?
[03:55] <mido1> Gain: Complex topic.
[03:55] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: you will probably find VNC is not needed
[03:55] <lstarnes> Gain: check the manual pages for getfacl and setfacl
[03:55] <Gain> lstarnes are access control lists just the 9 bits though
[03:55] <Gain> that you set in CHMOD
[03:55] <Gain> or is it something like IBM's AIX
[03:55] <lstarnes> Gain: no
[03:55] <cfedde> Gain: complex and generaly not needed if you understand standard unix authentication.
[03:55] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, right. I read somewhere that X server is designed to work on a remote monitor, anyway?
[03:55] <Oli``> Peddy: You might find xdmcp works/performs better than VNC
[03:56] <mido1> Gain: no.
[03:56] <lstarnes> Gain: the ones set with chmod are just permissions
[03:56] <bazhang> BitTorrent, please dont send me any files
[03:56] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: yes you can forward x server apps
[03:56] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, I'm just using it for managing torrents, folding and things like that. It's just an old machine that I found lying around :)
[03:56] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: if you install transmission, it will run without an x server and give a web interface
[03:57] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: folders can be managed via /etc/samba/smb.conf over ssh
[03:57] <mido1> Gain: With ACL, you could make a file readable to let's say five different, individual users without putting them into a group and set group access.
[03:57] <BitTorrent> bazhang: oh No, I'm Sorry. what weather in china?
[03:58] <bazhang> BitTorrent, lets discuss in #ubuntu-offtopic  ; this channel is for support ONLY
[03:58] <BitTorrent> bazhang: sorry.
[03:58] <Gain> mido1 then how does it differentiate from IBM's AIX Extended ACLs?
[03:58] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, thanks for the suggestions. I have to get the wireless working without X first, though.
[03:58] <bazhang> Peddy, ethernet?
[03:58] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, I won't use a GUI then.
[03:58] <mido1> Gain: dunno.
[03:59] <Oli``> Peddy: Deluge can also run in headless mode on the server and you can use the client on your desktop to connect to the server's backend... For file maintenance, you can use NFS/Samba/etc to mount the server as a drive...
[03:59] <Peddy> bazhang, that's not an option, there aren't any phone lines near where I am, router is downstairs, not allowed to run ethernet etc..
[03:59] <lstarnes> Gain: are AIX's Extended ACLs identical to posix ACLs?
[03:59] <Gain> lstarnes I am not sure what posix ACLs are to be honest
[03:59] <Gain> but AIX's is like a list of users who can get read
[03:59] <Gain> or group
[03:59] <bazhang> Peddy, then follow ActionParsnip 's suggestion in fixing the configuration
[03:59] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: just a good option. its why the server install comes with no x server, its more secure due to less services running and what you want to do can be done with less impact to the lan than bloated vnc when you can simply use ssh or a web interface
[03:59] <Gain> but the thing is that, if there is 1 deny, then that person/group is denied
[04:00] <mido1> Gain: Same with me and the extended IBM ACLs.
[04:00] <lstarnes> Gain: if I remember correctly, AIX's ACLs are an implementation of posix's ACLs
[04:00] <gobucks09> continue to have trouble configuring xubuntu video.  is KDE a better option than Xfce?  Xfce has no option settings and no controls.  Very limited and hard to use.
[04:00] <Gain> so say you have a list of ACLs  first is deny read to Alice,  second is give read to alice,   Alice will not have access to the file
[04:00] <Peddy> Thanks Oli``. I'll remember that (I'm also using Deluge right now)
[04:00] <Gain> since there is a deny in there
[04:00] <lstarnes> Gain: linux and many other unix-like operating systems also use posix ACls
[04:00] <Gain> hmmm
[04:00] <gobucks09> not possible to simply edit xorg.conf.  Must write from scratch.
[04:00] <lstarnes> Gain: or at least have the ability to use them
[04:00] <Gain> I'll google it
[04:01] <lstarnes> Gain: actually, AIX's acls might not be posix acls
[04:01] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: i can send you mine if you want
[04:01] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: http://pastebin.com/f6231c3f5
[04:02] <gobucks09> sure, I'll give it a shot.
[04:02] <mido1> gobucks09: Does xubuntu work in live cd mode? With graphical desktop?
[04:03] <gobucks09> I've used KDE controls on PCLinuxOS.  They are much more comprehensive than Xfce.  Is KDE under xubuntu similar?
[04:03] <gobucks09> mido1: x works fine.  screen is offset to the right & can't display full res.
[04:03] <richardcavell> gobucks09: you mean kubuntu?
[04:03] <gobucks09> Oh, is that kde on xubuntu?
[04:04] <gobucks09> or is that a seperate install?
[04:04] <mido1> gobucks09: To get back to the start, just boot the live cd, then copy the xorg.conf to your harddisk. This restores the starting point.
[04:04] <richardcavell> xubuntu has the xfce desktop. kubuntu has the kde desktop
[04:04] <Vakz> I just started using Ubuntu Server for the first time, and as i was hoping to make it headless, i'm using vnc4server.. it works perfect as long as i have a monitor plugged in, but if i boot the computer without a monitor, it just won't work.. anyone got any idea what to do?
[04:04] <sikpits87> hi can some one tell me how to set up a home network with ubuntu
[04:04] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: kubuntu is a release of ubuntu that uses kde instead of gnome by defaulty
[04:04] <alex__> gobucks09: You can get ubunti with xfce called xubuntu, with kde called kubuntu, or with Gnome called ubuntu
[04:04] <Guest79784> does ext2 need msdos? or can it be done on other partition table types?
[04:04] <gobucks09> ok, got it. thanks
[04:05] <richardcavell> Guest79784: it does not need msdos
[04:05] <gobucks09> I picked xubuntu because of hardware constraints.
[04:05] <richardcavell> Guest79784: ext file formats can work with GPT or MBR
[04:05] <richardcavell> gobucks09: that's the usual reason for selecting it
[04:05] <mido1> skip: What's the problem with networking?
[04:05] <scorpius_> Hola buenas noches
[04:06] <mido1> Hola scorpius, que tal?
[04:06] <scorpius_> necesito que alguien me explique como entro en irc hispano
[04:06] <scorpius_> tengo una cuenta pero lo que quiero primero es conectar con el servidor
[04:06] <kukstud07> Anyone know how to integrate smooth wall with Dan's Guardian?
[04:06] <nDevastator> can someone please help me with getting java to work with firefox ?
[04:06] <ctmjr> !es | scorpius_
[04:06] <Guest79784> ok. thnx richardcavell. i will attempt it.
[04:07] <nDevastator> i have java installed and also have it enabled in firefox yet it doesnt work =*(
[04:07] <mido1> scorpius_: Mellamo un poco espanol, sorry.
[04:07] <Gain> lstarnes got a link that explains Linux ACLs and how it works
[04:07] <sikpits87> am trying to share files between my computer an 2 laptops using ubuntu 9.04 can any one help me with this i have no clu wot to do
[04:07] <lstarnes> Gain: http://www.suse.de/~agruen/acl/linux-acls/online/
[04:07] <alex__> nDevastator: Have you installed the sun java 6 plugin?
[04:07] <StrangeCharm> why am i not able to log in via ssh with key-based authentication using putty (the key is refused)
[04:08] <ActionParsnip> nDevastator: is your ubuntu 64bit?
[04:08] <nDevastator> alex__ i think its jre
[04:08] <nDevastator> actionparsnip no
[04:08] <scorpius_> tha
[04:08] <ActionParsnip> !java | nDevastator
[04:08] <scorpius_> thanks
[04:08] <cast> StrangeCharm: check the logs.
[04:08] <alex__> nDevastator: Try sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin restart your browser and try again
[04:09] <StrangeCharm> cast- a novel and ingenious idea!
[04:09] <ActionParsnip> nDevastator: make sure you create a symlink to the .so file in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/  and   /usr/lib/firefox-addons/plugins/
[04:09] <ActionParsnip> nDevastator: you need libjavaplugin_oji.so
[04:09] <ne0> some hacker here
[04:10] <nDevastator> actionparsnip o okay i made a symlink in /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.5/plugins
[04:10] <ActionParsnip> nDevastator: you can run:  sudo find / -name libjavaplugin_oji.so
[04:10] <StrangeCharm> cast- know where sshd keeps its logs?
[04:10] <alex__> ActionParsnip: Any reason not to just use the plugin from the repositories?
[04:10] <cast> StrangeCharm: investigate /var/log/, probably auth
[04:10] <ActionParsnip> alex__: no idea, thats what is needed though
[04:10] <Guest69300> is anything other than msdos that's worth the change?
[04:10] <ActionParsnip> alex__: i have a script i found online that installs native 64bit java :)
[04:10] <lstarnes> StrangeCharm: cat /var/log/auth.log | grep sshd
[04:11] <mido1> sikpits87: There was a configuration frontend for samba.....
[04:11] <alex__> ActionParsnip: You just love scripts ;)
[04:11] <StrangeCharm> thanks lstarnes
[04:11] <BitTorrent> bazhang: somebody intruder to my computer. my firewall tell me. what can I do? open all port? no file classified I think.
[04:11] <ne0> alguem aki
[04:11] <sikpits87> sorry am a noob wot does that meen
[04:11] <mido1> sikpits87: Install system-config-samba.
[04:11] <ActionParsnip> alex__: i do, i have nearly 1gb of scripts
[04:11] <gobucks09> richardcavell: yeah, prolly was a bad choice.  Too stripped & needs manual configuration.  I'm downloading kubuntu right now.  This will take a while.
[04:12] <mido1> sikpits87: Will show up in you system settings.
[04:12] <alex__> ActionParsnip: Holy S**t ;)
[04:12] <ActionParsnip> alex__: want the 64bit java script?
[04:12] <richardcavell> gobucks09: do you have the hardware for it?  I don't think KDE is any easier on the hardware than GNOME
[04:12] <alex__> ActionParsnip: Ok. lol
[04:12] <gobucks09> rc: maybe not on the hardware, but much easier on the brain.
[04:12] <ne0> need help to attack a site
[04:13] <richardcavell> gobucks09: lol
[04:13] <gobucks09> I'll find out if I have the hardware or not in a little bit.
[04:13] <ne0> and a software company
[04:13] <ActionParsnip> alex__: http://pastebin.com/f23e8e240
[04:13] <rvn> my sound isn't working, it has previously been autodetected by linux every other time i installed it, and it's been so long since windows didn't support it out of the box that i dont even remember what model it is >..
[04:13] <richardcavell> gobucks09: if you run it from a live CD it will be much slower and more temperamental than if you boot it from hard disk
[04:14] <ne0> Where are the crackers of the room
[04:14] <lstarnes> ne0: we do not condone attacks here
[04:15] <richardcavell> I give him 90 seconds
[04:15] <sikpits87> mido1: i have installed system-config-samba wot do i do now
[04:15] <gobucks09> Right, my goal is to convert about 4 W98 machines to Linux.  So I don't even want to mess with the CD live version.  The machines have plenty of disk, PIII at 700MHz.  Just a little low on RAM.
[04:15] <richardcavell> sikpits87: on both machines?
[04:15] <rvn> i have a gateway p6831fx, why is my sound not working out of the box anymore while it did in the past
[04:15] <richardcavell> gobucks09: how much RAM?
[04:15] <ne0> sorry
[04:15] <rvn> and how can i rectify the situation
[04:15] <bonez46> gobucks09: you should be able to run fine....
[04:16] <Guest69300> ne0: start reading.  =)   http://www.astalavista.com/
[04:16] <mido1> sikpits87: Look in you system settings menu.
[04:16] <gobucks09> 1 GB, 512 & one is 256
[04:16] <sikpits87> no jus the one shall i install on all computers
[04:16] <mido1> sikpits87: There's a new programme.
[04:16] <ne0> ashuashua
[04:16] <ne0> what?
[04:16] <ne0> why that?
[04:16] <richardcavell> gobucks09: the GNOME version will run fine on 1 Gig, okay on the 512 and probably acceptably on the 256
[04:17] <richardcavell> sikpits87: install samba on all computers
[04:17] <gobucks09> what about K?
[04:17] <rvn> someone? help?
[04:17] <mido1> sikpits87: If you want to share a directory of this computer with another, you have to install and use system-config-samba on this computer.
[04:17] <richardcavell> gobucks09: they'll be fine with kubuntu.  The 256 Meg computer might be a bit slow, but make sure you give it a swapfile
[04:17] <rvn> idt/sigmatel audio not working out of the box
[04:17] <Guest69300> ne0: links at bottom.
[04:17] <lstarnes> ne0: what you're trying to do is likely unethical and possibly illegal
[04:17] <rvn> it has in prior builds to 9.04, why?
[04:18] <sikpits87> ok wil install on cpu now
[04:18] <lstarnes> ne0: and this channel is only for issues related to ubuntu
[04:18] <mido1> richardcavell: Come one... KDE on a 256 Meg machine... let him go...
[04:18] <rvn> someone please...
[04:18] <rvn> stop paying attention to illegal-man and help me with my legitimate problem
[04:18] <rvn> :/
[04:18] <lstarnes> rvn: please be patient
[04:19] <richardcavell> mido1: he wants them all to have the same distro, so I'm suggesting he installs kubuntu on all of them
[04:19] <shamusadamus> ALSA ERROR hw_params: set_near (RATE)

[04:19] <shamusadamus> anyone?
[04:19] <ActionParsnip> rvn: if you give the output of:  lspci | grep -i audio
[04:19] <alex__> Does anyone know if you can make it so when you use the volume control on your keyboard, the little box that shows where the volume is at doesn't come up?
[04:19] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, the wifi connection worked! (took so long because I had to connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse). Where should I add those commands so they are executed at every boot?
[04:19] <shamusadamus> this is while running a libasoun_debug for espeak
[04:19] <rvn> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
[04:19] <ne0> sorry
[04:20] <shamusadamus> i have a 82801db
[04:20] <shamusadamus> whats ur issue?
[04:20] <gobucks09> gobucks
[04:20] <ActionParsnip> !startup | peddy
[04:20] <mido1> richardcavell: Okay, but kubuntu with KDE 4 on a 256 Meg machine is slower than slow...
[04:20] <roosel> okay i got it finally thanks everyone
[04:20] <rvn> its not making any sound
[04:20] <richardcavell> I have a 82801G
[04:20] <kevin009> i have a jaunty system with a blank xorg.conf. everything works, but I want to switch to 16-bit color. How can I do this?
[04:21] <ActionParsnip> !boot | Peddy
[04:21] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, I won't be logging into a Gnome session though, remember? and the commands need to be run as root.
[04:21] <Peddy> right
[04:21] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: sudo nano /etc/rc.local
[04:21] <richardcavell> mido1: well I guess he could go with xubuntu
[04:21] <ne0> Anybody know a safe way to hide ip
[04:21] <shamusadamus> and you have tried going to system>admin software driver?
[04:21] <mido1> gobucks09: Better fetch some more memory for the machine.
[04:21] <shamusadamus> s
[04:21] <richardcavell> gobucks09: yeah. It shouldn't cost much to upgrade them all to 1 Gig
[04:21] <lstarnes> ne0: across all of the internet, or on just this irc network?
[04:21] <gobucks09> we'll know any minute now
[04:22] <mido1> gobucks09: Just be warned, it will be darn slow because of the low memory.
[04:22] <gobucks09> actually most of them max out at 512
[04:22] <shamusadamus> theso anyone want to help me with this espeak issue
[04:22] <shamusadamus> :)
[04:23] <mido1> gobucks09: 512 MB is much better.
[04:23] <richardcavell> gobucks09: well, 512 would be heaps better than 256
[04:23] <ActionParsnip> shamusadamus: i had that too but only over ssh
[04:23] <sikpits87> mido1: thx for help think al be able to figure the rest out
[04:23] <ne0> internet
[04:23] <mido1> sikpits87: Did you find the new config app?
[04:23] <gobucks09> xfce runs very nicely.
[04:24] <richardcavell> gobucks09: good
[04:24] <mido1> gobucks09: xfce is _much_ smaller than KDE.
[04:24] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: i prefer lxde personally
[04:24] <shamusadamus> ssh audio?
[04:24]  * LinuxGold looks around.
[04:24] <ActionParsnip> shamusadamus: no, the audio come out of the ssh server system
[04:24]  * richardcavell stares at LinuxGold
[04:24] <gobucks09> what's what's lxde?
[04:24]  * LinuxGold glares back
[04:24] <LinuxGold> :)
[04:24] <mido1> gobucks09: Just give kubuntu a try. It's really cool.
[04:24]  * Scunizi learks in a corner
[04:24] <rvn> lxde is a desktop environment
[04:24] <shamusadamus> ohhh, ok i was confused
[04:24] <sikpits87> mido1: yeh found it in installed on the 2 cpu i wanted to share files between
[04:25] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: http://pud-linux.sourceforge.net/screenshot/pud-lxde-2.jpg
[04:25] <cam^> hi
[04:25] <mido1> gobucks09: But don't wonder if it's slow, then think about upgrading the memory. Memory is rather cheap at the moment.
[04:25]  * LinuxGold wonders if there is any application equivalent to Office, something that utilitizes Exchange 2007
[04:25] <shamusadamus> so do you think that could have anything to do with my issue, or would i have gotten a different error
[04:25] <mido1> sikpits87: Great!
[04:25] <ShaRON> Okay hello all =)
[04:25] <shamusadamus> hello
[04:25] <bruenig> LinuxGold: ther eisn't and stop /meing
[04:25] <mido1> sikpits87: You'll find the shares in the network "place" then.
[04:25] <ShaRON> Hey Sham
[04:25] <LinuxGold> brueing: yes sir.
[04:26] <cam^> i have a thumb drive 16GB (sandisk titanium). I would like to give 4GB for ubuntu installation and the rest as FAT32. Question: which filesystem to implement on the thumbdrive ? ext4 ? ext3 ? others ?
[04:26] <LinuxGold> I'm trying to figure out a way to replace Windows XP with ubuntu and still use Exchange 2007 for my work laptop.
[04:26] <Vakz> I just started using Ubuntu Server for the first time, and as i was hoping to make it headless, i'm using vnc4server.. it works perfect as long as i have a monitor plugged in, but if i boot the computer without a monitor, it just won't work.. anyone got any idea what to do?
[04:26] <cast> cam^: ext3
[04:26] <rvn> LinuxGold, Wine
[04:26] <shamusadamus> sweet, i have a frind * a single tearrolls down my cheek*
[04:26] <ActionParsnip> cam^: ext2 as it writes less to the partition
[04:26] <LinuxGold> Too addicted with Outlook
[04:26] <ShaRON> So I have a problem, and am quite unsure of what it means
[04:26] <shamusadamus> :P
[04:26] <LinuxGold> rvn: hmm...
[04:26] <mido1> shamusadamus: We do hear you, but obviously nobody can help.
[04:26] <shamusadamus> :)
[04:26] <ActionParsnip> cam^: i don't recommend fat32. its not very robust
[04:27] <ShaRON> well on my Asus MoBo
[04:27] <Scunizi> LinuxGold: evolution has an exchange plugin.. also you might look at zimbra desktop.. it might as well.
[04:27] <richardcavell> ActionParsnip: Yeah, I was thinking that you want a filesystem that writes a minimum
[04:27] <LinuxGold> Guess I will be happy with dual then.
[04:27] <shamusadamus> i see, just hoping new people might have a solution
[04:27] <LinuxGold> acunizi: ok, will check that out. thanks.
[04:27] <cam^> ActionParsnip fat32 will be on the partition to "share" between pc's ..
[04:27] <cast> because you wearing out usb drives is common?
[04:27] <mido1> Vakz: Just a lucky guess: It's not perhaps that the mainboard BIOS is stuck because of no monitor/keyboard?
[04:27] <StrangeCharm> where are the ubuntu screen themes (ubuntu light, dark, black &c) stored? how could i copy them to another host?
[04:27] <sikpits87> mido1: i have made the shares but my cpu's carnt see each other
[04:27] <ShaRON> it just shut itself down, So i tried everything eventually hooked a spare p supply to nothing but the 24 pin ATX power conn
[04:28] <ActionParsnip> cam^: linux can read and write to ntfs using ntfs-3g
[04:28] <ShaRON> well that made me think psupply issue
[04:28] <shamusadamus> and i think action parsnip might be able to help, had a similar issue
[04:28] <ShaRON> so i ordered anothewr
[04:28] <alex__> Does anyone know if you can make it so when you use the volume control on your keyboard, the little box that shows where the volume is at doesn't come up?
[04:28] <cam^> ActionParsnip ok.. so u'll go for ext2 instead of ext3/4
[04:29] <richardcavell> cam^: I think so too
[04:29] <ShaRON> problem is i can hook up 24 pin Pwr connector but if i plug in the 8-pin atx 12 conn it won't start
[04:29] <mido1> sikpits87: Hm. They normally should...
[04:29] <rvn> alex__, i know that u definitely can, i think it's related to ACPI scripts, i can't tell ya more
[04:29] <ShaRON> my sytems a little over 7 months old any suggestions?
[04:29] <richardcavell> sikpits87: how are you trying to view one machine from the other?
[04:29] <alex__> ShaRON: Do you have an extra CPU to try out by any chance? =D
[04:29] <ActionParsnip> cam^: ext3/4 write to the jounal a fair bit which will shorten the life of the device
[04:29] <ShaRON> nope nada
[04:30] <ActionParsnip> ShaRON: this is ubuntu support, jion #hardware for hardware issues
[04:30] <sikpits87> mido1: places then network
[04:30] <alex__> ShaRON: Sounds like the problem is either in the mobo connector, or the CPU
[04:30] <panama007> can someone tell me if powerdvd9 will work on wine?
[04:31] <ShaRON> So I should see if CPU is bad then if that fails get new MoBo?
[04:31] <sikpits87> richardcavell: places then network
[04:31] <ctmjr> ShaRON: that sounds like a question for the #hardware channel
[04:31] <cam^> ok.. now another question... are there any real difference between installing ubuntu on the thumbdrive and creating this USB boot key with persistence files enabled ?
[04:31] <ShaRON> kk
[04:31] <ShaRON> ty
[04:31] <richardcavell> sikpits87: have you tried typing in the IP number?
[04:32] <alex__> cam^: If there is, I haven't found it.
[04:32] <gobucks09> ActionParsnip: I've booted lxde before.  I remember the screen but can't remember the distro.  Who uses it?
[04:32] <shamusadamus> hmm, I would bust out my multimeter, before, getting a whole new mobo, just to check the continuity, and see if there is something wrong (bad trace or something)
[04:32] <shamusadamus> will it load the bios?
[04:32] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: me for one
[04:32] <ActionParsnip> gobucks09: im also on a team to make Lubuntu :)
[04:33] <sikpits87> richardcavell: sorry am new to linux how do i do that is it thru connect to server
[04:33] <cooper77z> hello friends, I am having problems using my second monitor as an extension of my desktop, for the time being, it's just a duplication of the other monitor
[04:33] <shamusadamus> a action, do you think i might be having the problem same as you did, and what was your solution? the espeak alsa errer
[04:34] <molina_> would you guys know if an xbox 360 would be able to play .avi files through ushare?
[04:34] <cam^> alex__ in a way, booting using the image creates a lot of mfs ? r/w should be less than if normal installation ?
[04:34] <Peddy> ActionParsnip, that static manual IP worked beautifully. I'm going to do it for my main desktop now as well :-P
[04:34] <Peddy> manually set static IP*
[04:34] <alex__> Cam^: The little bit I've messed with it, I didn't see any noticable performance difference
[04:34] <ActionParsnip> Peddy: makes boots faster too
[04:35] <richardcavell> sikpits87: I don't know enough to advise you
[04:36]  * richardcavell is logging off to save taking bandwidth from Steam, which is downloading Half-Life.
