[16:54] <longtimeuser> ok
[16:54] <legend2440> mark626: i think you have to have a motherboard with bios that supports boot from usb. if theres another way i never heard of it

[16:55] <bazhang> nerdsquad3210: what do grannies have to with ubuntu
[16:55] <PurpZeY> Have the repos slowed down or is that just my imagination?
[16:55] <Flare183> exactly
[16:55] <MrSteve> for real
[16:55] <MrSteve> what is a repos
[16:56] <bazhang> the software sources or repositories MrSteve
[16:56] <nerdsquad3210> a friend of mine told me ubuntu was a distro that even a granei could use
[16:56] <Flare183> !aptrepo | MrSteve
[16:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about aptrepo - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[16:56] <thoreauputic> PurpZeY: the RC for Hardy is being synced - I expect there's a heavy load
[16:56] <Pici> !repo | MrSteve
[16:56] <ubotu> MrSteve: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories
[16:56] <MrSteve> ohhhh ... I get mine from GA Tech
[16:56] <bazhang> nerdsquad3210: please stop now
[16:56] <alastor666> salut les chans nux :)
[16:56] <Flare183> Pici: you got to it before me
[16:56] <bazhang> !fr | alastor666
[16:56] <ubotu> alastor666: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[16:56] <tuntun> Can I do a search by mime type?
[16:56] <PurpZeY> thoreauputic: Ah...Got it...I am just doing an update and it's taking forever...that makes sense.
[16:57] <luccons> I've a problem about the screen,I cannot modify the low resolution I have 'cause I wrongly modify the driver of Nvidia
[16:57] <da1l6> Does someone in here us a WLAN device based on RTL8187L? I consider buying one but i don't know if its supported.
[16:57] <ivo> sometimes firefox on windows open the www better than firefox on ubuntu, do somebody know any solution for this proble?
[16:57] <PurpZeY> da1l6: There is a supported hardware list.
[16:57] <magnetron> !hardware | da1l6
[16:57] <ubotu> da1l6: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection
[16:57] <nerdsquad3210> whats the torrent to get the ubuntu USB bootable version ?
[16:58] <MrSteve> bazhang --- How long will you be here toady? few hours?
[16:58] <Flare183> !usb | nerdsquad3210
[16:58] <ubotu> nerdsquad3210: For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent
[16:58] <bazhang> nerdsquad3210: just the regular iso for your arch
[16:58] <bazhang> MrSteve: and tomorrow and the day after..for quite a while ;]
[16:58] <nerdsquad3210> usb distros come in .tar archives
[16:58] <gusse> ubuntu hardy power!!!!!!!!!
[16:58] <ubunturos> I happened to notice a recent install of Ubuntu 7.10 has rather a confusing /etc/fstab file
[16:58] <bazhang> nerdsquad3210: you can try unetbootin if you wish
[16:59] <luccons>  I've a problem about the screen,I cannot modify the low resolution I have 'cause I wrongly modify the driver of Nvidia
[16:59] <nerdsquad3210> unetbootin ?
[16:59] <ubunturos> if a new partition has been created after installing ubuntu, either it should automount or one should be able to add an entry to /etc/fstab
[16:59] <MrSteve> bazhang -- okay okay.. let me get back from the store, and get the drive installed.. and see if I can unetbootin a download onto the second disk drive.
[16:59] <nerdsquad3210> thats not in the dictionarie
[16:59] <MrSteve> I am scary
[16:59] <bazhang> MrSteve: sorry that was for nerdsquad3210
[16:59] <ubunturos> but the entries seem to confuse me. How do I add it
[16:59] <ubunturos> ?
[17:00] <Flare183> ubunturos: it should automount
[17:00] <nerdsquad3210> whats unetbootin ?
[17:00] <tuntun> ivo, thats a very vague question
[17:00] <ubunturos> Flare183: it doesn't, for reasons unknown. Is is because, it was created after Ubuntu was installed
[17:00] <ubunturos> ?
[17:00] <tuntun> How can I search by mime type?
[17:00] <bazhang> nerdsquad3210: it is a way to get linux installed from with another linux, much like wubi for windows
[17:01] <sipior> tuntun: search what by mime-type?
[17:01] <Flare183> umm
[17:01] <tuntun> sipior, files
[17:01] <AlabamaHit> How do I make it where...say I write a page in PHP and want to view it for errors before I upload it...is there a way to do that....like a local server or somthing like that? Might need a DB to if thats possible?
[17:01] <sipior> tuntun: beagle may generate mime-type metadata for files, have a look there
[17:01] <nerdsquad3210> i just need to copy boot and ubuntu dirs to the usb root dir ?
[17:02] <da1l6> The hardware support list does only show RTL8187 not RTL8187L, if its the same driver, then it is broken in hardy :(  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/194887
[17:02] <Jack_Sparrow> nerdsquad3210, I have a iso2usb script
[17:02] <nerdsquad3210> i dont have a cdrom writer
[17:02] <binarycortex> hi

[17:03] <magnetron> ivo: do you use adblock?
[17:03] <Jack_Sparrow> Whats up
[17:03] <Flare183> ubunturos: I don't know...
[17:03] <bazhang> missed you Jack
[17:03] <Flare183> ubunturos: keep asking...
[17:03] <nerdsquad3210> what iso2 usb script ?
[17:03] <binarycortex> i am using ubuntu inside virtualbox and it wont give me a resolution over 800x600 and i cant tell it what kind of monitor i have so i can change the resolution
[17:03] <ivo> i will try, thanks
[17:03] <binarycortex> what can i do
[17:03] <Jack_Sparrow> bazhang, only here for a couple minutes before I head to the beach
[17:03] <bazhang> ivo just a sec will get you a link
[17:03] <tuntun> sipior, where is beagle?
[17:03] <Jack_Sparrow> nerdsquad3210, one sec.. will get the link
[17:04] <bazhang> Jack_Sparrow: just that is enough to quell the masses ;]
[17:04] <arvind_khadri> bazhang, hi
[17:04] <Jack_Sparrow> Make an iso on usb bootable http://jak-linux.org/tmp/iso2usb.sh
[17:04] <sipior> tuntun: sudo apt-get install beagle
[17:04] <PurpZeY> tuntun: It's not built in, you'd have to install it. . .Not hard to do...But it also takes time to crawl your files...Won't work for a little bit.
[17:04] <markrian> So apparently 8.04 Release Candidate is available, but the only CD images I can find refer to Beta. What's going on?
[17:04] <staar2> hi
[17:04] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardy
[17:04] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[17:04] <bazhang> arvind_khadri: just in time!
[17:04] <nerdsquad3210> dont you have the .bat version ?
[17:04] <Flare183> markrian: yes but it's still not realeased yet
[17:04] <MrSteve> I cannot burn a disk, or use a floppy.
[17:04] <H4nta> hi. how do i prevent xgl/compiz from running?
[17:05] <arvind_khadri> bazhang, to where :)
[17:05] <Jack_Sparrow> MrSteve, for what purpose
[17:05] <staar2> is it point to install the beta version or wait when it is released ?
[17:05] <bazhang> arvind_khadri: to answer the newer users questions of course ;]
[17:05] <Flare183> H4nta: Why would you want to do that?
[17:05] <bazhang> staar2: better to wait
[17:05] <noodlesgc> staar2 you should probably wait
[17:05] <H4nta> Flare183 because its not compatibel with icewm
[17:05] <markrian> Jack_Sparrow, Flare183, my bad, should have actually thought before typing
[17:05] <Jack_Sparrow> H4nta, you can create icons to turn it on and off for laying games if that is your intent.
[17:05] <tuntun> sipior, PurpZeY, There is default indexing service iirc, where is that located?
[17:06] <arvind_khadri> bazhang, :) i love it..but as a matter of fact am not as experienced as you all are
[17:06] <Kira> hi guys
[17:06] <Flare183> markrian: np
[17:06] <Flare183> it's cool
[17:06] <Kira> where do I get a list of Ubuntu apt mirrors? I mean the *.archive.ubuntu.com
[17:06] <sipior> tuntun: have a look through your gnome menus, it's surely there
[17:06] <Jack_Sparrow> !repos
[17:06] <bazhang> ivo: you still here? this is the link--> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865
[17:06] <nerdsquad3210> Jack_Sparrow: i need the .bat version
[17:06] <arvind_khadri> Kira, they are just country specific
[17:06] <ivo> yes iam still and looking for this link :)
[17:07] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories
[17:07] <noodlesgc> Kira you should be able to get lists in your software sources program
[17:07] <Jack_Sparrow> nerdsquad3210, Windows eh..
[17:07] <bazhang> ivo: install from that then restart firefox and all those nasty ads go away ;]
[17:07] <nerdsquad3210> no point in pirating linux ;)
[17:07] <AlabamaHit> How do I make it where...say I write a page in PHP and want to view it for errors before I upload it...is there a way to do that....like a local server or somthing like that? Might need a DB to if thats possible?
[17:07] <tuntun> sipior, I dont know what its called :-S
[17:10] <Kira> arvind_khadri: well, the hk repository is actually just an alias of the main repository, which isn't exactly fast when accessed from all the way in HK.
[17:10] <DRebellion> AlabamaHit, i guess you would need a local webserver
[17:10] <Kira> noodlesgc: what do you mean?
[17:10] <sipior> tuntun: "Indexing preferences"
[17:11] <arvind_khadri> Kira, hmm you mean hk.ubuntu.* ??
[17:11] <noodlesgc> Kira go to System->Administration->Software Sources , you can select server.
[17:11] <noodlesgc> Kira there is even a "Find Fastest Server" tool
[17:11] <Kira> noodlesgc: I'm administering my Ubuntu box through ssh. :)
[17:11] <Nith> hello, my vid card just crapped out and I had to remove it. I've got my on board one working but my TTY's aren't accessable
[17:12] <Kira> arvind_khadri: hk.archive.ubuntu.com
[17:12] <Nith> how can I get the tty's to work again?
[17:12] <shyster> hkgkghk
[17:12] <arvind_khadri> KIra so those are the slow ones??
[17:12] <Kira> yep
[17:12] <nerdsquad3210> can i make a virtual image if my windows vista and run it on ubuntu ?
[17:12] <arvind_khadri> nerdsquad3210, VMware
[17:13] <pawan> hi
[17:13] <nerdsquad3210> arvind_khadri: thats not open source
[17:13] <Kira> I don't think it's normal when my ubuntu box is at one of the fastest data centers in HK yet I can't download any faster than 30kbps.
[17:13] <Flare183> shyster: ???
[17:13] <arvind_khadri> nerdsquad3210, hmm thats the best vitualizer
[17:14] <arvind_khadri> nerdsquad3210, virtualizer
[17:14] <komputes> I need to find out which files get changed when turning on vino-server (VNC), does anyone want to help me with this task?
[17:14] <nerdsquad3210> how do you know its the best if you cant look at the code ?!!
[17:14] <rick111> Sleepy_Code
[17:14] <rick111> TYPO
[17:14] <Kira> noodlesgc: are you aware of any command line version of that "Find Fastest Server" tool?
[17:14] <arvind_khadri> nerdsquad3210, :) thats there but ...aah cant argue
[17:14] <ivo> ok, i know how to block images, but i still can't block flash player banners
[17:15] <sipior> komputes: you can run vino-server under strace, then grep the output for read/writes
[17:15] <noodlesgc> Kira, I dont know of any, but there are probably some out there.
[17:15] <noodlesgc> komputes or you could look at the source and find out
[17:15] <ivo> i will instal adblock plus
[17:15] <unop_> komputes, probably also monitor the files listed by.   dpkg -L vino-server
[17:16] <ivo> adblock plus element hidding helper
[17:16] <komputes> sipior: it's actually vino-preferences (the app that configure/turns on vino), could you give me a command to try out?
[17:16] <komputes> noodlesgc: not at that stage in UberCode-age
[17:16] <k[5\5]> ssssssssss
[17:16] <nerdsquad3210> anyone tested the flash NULL hack on ubuntu yet ?
[17:16] <sipior> komputes: strace vino-preferences
[17:16] <Jack_Sparrow> k[5\5], Did you have a Ubuntu Support question?
[17:17] <Alan> How do i find out what's using my sound device?  My sound has stopped working, /dev/dsp says "Device or resource busy", yet nothing is running which could affect sound...
[17:17] <mc-george> alan, in rc?
[17:17] <tuntun> Im sorry to have to say that 'help and support' is very bad; I would have thought searching 'indexing' would come up with something even remotely relavent...
[17:17] <noodlesgc> Alan sudo lsof | grep dsp
[17:17] <k[5\5]> i'm fresh guy
[17:17] <Alan> noodlesgc, tried that already
[17:17] <Alan> nothing's using it apparently
[17:17] <komputes> unop_: how will that tell me what files were changed? how can I make a diff of modified date on that dpkg -L command
[17:17] <k[5\5]> sorry
[17:17] <Jack_Sparrow> Alan, /join #Alsa
[17:18] <Alan> mc-george, no, in Gutsy
[17:18] <mc-george> oh
[17:18] <nerdsquad3210> Jack_Sparrow: have you  tested the flash NULL hack on ubuntu yet ?
[17:18] <Nith> Anyone know how to get the tty's working when the monitor turns off whenever you switch to one?
[17:18] <k[5\5]> :)
[17:18] <MrSteve> Is there a safe utility to allow XP to read/write from ext3 partitions?
[17:18] <komputes> sipior: strace vino-preferences is giving me a LOT, way too much actually (memory addresses)
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> bazhang, Did you see the script for downloading youtube videos directly to flv files on your ubuntu.. works great..
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> nerdsquad3210, no
[17:19] <komputes> I have also tried fileschanged but I get a segmentation fault when i feed it a file of paths to monitor
[17:19] <bazhang> Jack_Sparrow: sounds awesome
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> MrSteve, yes.
[17:19] <arvind_khadri> Jack_Sparrow, there is .deb for that ;)
[17:19] <MrSteve> thks
[17:19] <nerdsquad3210> but you know what im talking about right ?
[17:19] <sipior> komputes: behold the power of grep... look for "write" and "open"
[17:19] <hwilde> which package provides modules 8139cp and 8139too and ath_hal and ppdev and wlan
[17:19] <Jack_Sparrow> arvind_khadri, not a deb. py script
[17:19] <komputes> sipior: it also give me screen coordinates, ok i will grep
[17:20] <Jack_Sparrow> bazhang, google up youtube-dl
[17:20] <sipior> komputes: you can also try lsof, which will list open files by pid
[17:20] <MrSteve> a way to reclaim the ext3 partition as fat32?
[17:20] <tuntun> Ubuntu code contributers don't really read this channel do they?
[17:20] <sipior> komputes: that would be simpler, but i don't believe it will discriminate between reads and writes
[17:20] <nerdsquad3210> do you have any demographics on ubuntu user base ?
[17:20] <Jack_Sparrow> MrSteve, you can reformat it, but you cant just convert it
[17:20] <ivo> ok, now everything work well
[17:20] <MrSteve> k
[17:21] <Jack_Sparrow> nerdsquad3210, there are some online.. dont have a link. but had dl by country
[17:21] <MrSteve> caveats -- before installing.. jack-desktop
[17:21] <xalewcik> Sveiki :)
[17:21] <W8TAH> where can i find the development roadmap for ubuntu?
[17:21] <arvind_khadri> bazhang, youtube-dl does it ...you can apt-get it ;)
[17:21] <ivo> thx for bazhang, magnetron and tuntun :)
[17:21] <arvind_khadri> bazhang, youtube-dl does it ...you can apt-get it ;)
[17:21] <bazhang> sudo aptitude install youtube-dl
[17:21] <MrSteve> Jack_Sparrow - caveats before installing
[17:21] <bazhang> oh my gosh that is awesome arvind_khadri Jack_Sparrow
[17:21] <tuntun> ivo, what makes you think they're developers?
[17:22] <Jack_Sparrow> bazhang, simple and quick.. way quicker that watching on youtube
[17:22] <nerdsquad3210> Jack_Sparrow: demographics != from geographic !
[17:22] <t1n0m3n> Anyone know how to set an RDP session to the 2nd screen using separate X-Servers and Terminal Server Client Applet?  Ubuntu 7.10
[17:22] <bazhang> Jack_Sparrow: too true ;]
[17:22] <ivo> tuntun: no they are people with biiiiiiiig knowledge

[17:32] <beex> fair 'nuff

[17:33] <MrSteve> neato
[17:33] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, compiz --replace    asdsuming you are using compiz
[17:34] <PurpZeY> Jack_Sparrow: I can't run compiz. I think it's b/c of this problem
[17:34] <MrSteve> and.. a new keyboard, I forgot I had bought
[17:34] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, metacity --replace
[17:34] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, that shoud get your buttons back
[17:34] <PurpZeY> Jack_Sparrow: That does not fix it...=(
[17:35] <bazhang> MrSteve: okay; so you want to install to the external hard drive right? well then just be sure that the installer points at the correct drive when you are in the install process (also be sure the bios can see the drive) and of course back up any crucial data
[17:35] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, any user changes to the official repos?
[17:35] <PurpZeY> Jack_Sparrow: No this is a fresh install.
[17:36] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[17:36] <bazhang> MrSteve: there are really two choices at this point since you cant use a cd drive; either the usb (if your bios supports it) or wubi/unetbootin
[17:37] <PurpZeY> !paste
[17:37] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[17:37] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, just copy that line into a term
[17:39] <arvind_k> bazhang, night ...am just tired today
[17:39] <PurpZeY> Jack_Sparrow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63648/

[17:40] <jeffimperial> Anyone care to help me with a Firefox problem?
[17:40] <bazhang> irishninja: have you asked about this issue in #ubuntu-mythtv yet?
[17:40] <irishninja> I have
[17:40] <hiha> HIha, why isn't KDE the default for Ubuntu
[17:40] <bazhang> hiha it is for Kubuntu ;]
[17:40] <hiha> What you think Jck spaRrow

[17:41] <hiha> quit
[17:41] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, I see nothing wrong in there..
[17:41] <irishninja> nobody answered and I believe it's an issue that could apply to any *ubuntu
[17:41] <PurpZeY> Jack_Sparrow: Is there a way to just reverse the update?
[17:41] <PurpZeY> Or that part of it.
[17:41] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, not really
[17:42] <PurpZeY> How should I deal with this problem barring a full reinstall?
[17:42] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, You can untangle it manually, but since it is a fresh install I would just reinstall.
[17:42] <uppp> hi i have a probeme dual installing sun-java5-bin
[17:42] <bazhang> irishninja: fair enough, what it the exact issue? what errors are you getting?
[17:43] <irishninja> lemme just chek again...
[17:43] <PurpZeY> Jack_Sparrow: I had a great deal of difficulty getting the video card to work, would like to avoid that, if possible.
[17:43] <Jack_Sparrow> PurpZeY, did you install the drivers manually. as that may be what caused your problems that I dont see in your sourcers.
[17:43] <zvacet> UPPP: which version do you use?
[17:44] <PurpZeY> Jack_Sparrow: No...I thought I would have to but after some work Ubuntu seemed to work on nvidia

[19:02] <babo> guys, i've recorded a camstudio demo. It used to be fine on all systems. Now, the sound comes out weird on windows systems. still works grand on linux ... anyone any ideas ?

[19:03] <BOZG> Hey, I'm currently using a 280gb partition for Ubuntu with 2gb for the swap drive.  I'd like to create a seperate partition for /home but I'm not sure what size of a partition I should give to /  Does anyone have any recommendations?
[19:03] <ompaul> Shador, do this su - username (which is in lowercase) and then type id and see if plugdev is there - I just did it in 7.10 and it works removing access to plugdev for me - have you reloaded the user since you did this change and so forth
[19:03] <ProProduction1> So any ideas on why I am not getting the output that I should be??
[19:03] <OpenGuru> BOZG, give as much as possible

[19:03] <OpenGuru> BOZG, 20-40GB should be more than enough
[19:04] <Shador> how can I reload the user?
[19:04] <OpenGuru> user1, i think you need to add the cd to apt-cd list..
[19:04] <jagggy> how do i see the running stuff with a command again? ( something with aux or so :s )
[19:04] <underscore> Nith: let's say that I could get the correct command, say it was something like ^01~. How would I write a file that reports that keypress when executed? Just a file with the line ^01~?
[19:04] <Daviey> user1: add deb-cdrom entry to /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the other repositories.. then apt-get update
[19:05] <BOZG> OpenGuru: Cool.  I wasn't sure how much space installation takes up as well as other applications.  I would assume that games would probably be the biggest space killers, excluding media?

[19:06] <OpenGuru> BOZG, you can install game to the home directory also..
[19:06] <The-Compiler> I would like to format an SD-card with vfat, is " sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdj1" the right command for this?
[19:06] <BOZG> OpenGuru: Thanks a lot.  I can always resize if absolutely necessary.
[19:07] <OpenGuru> BOZG, if you want to your current home directory to new partition then you can checkout my blog post ;)
[19:07] <underscore> Nith: no, I have a microsoft keyboard with an F-lock that you have to press on start up. I can make it so that each non-locked F key runs a program with an argument saying the number, so I am trying to write a program that, given 1 - 12 as input tells the system that the corresponding F key is pressed
[19:07] <underscore> Nith: so that I don't have to F-Lock on every boot
[19:08] <katad0t1s> update-manager --devel-release does not work (steps dialog freezes). Any help??

[19:33] <Notscape> Hi, is there a fix to the PR28045 bug in dapper gcc ?
[19:33] <erUSUL> XFLXFLXFL: most hardware just works unfortunately most hardware does not include many wifi cards and graphic cards so linux gets bad repotation ;P
[19:33] <lordleemo> Azer: its ??? back to irssi m8
[19:34] <ompaul> Notscape, check launchpad.net
[19:34] <frank23> how can I log my up/down data transfer volume? My ISP's cap will be enforced soon. Is there an easy way to do it on the router? (WRT54GL running HyperWRT Thibor atm)
[19:34] <ompaul> frank23, the router might do it but that is not a ubuntu question
[19:35] <frank23> ompaul: how would I do this in ubuntu?
[19:35] <ompaul> frank is that all you run on that lan?
[19:35] <msuiter> Fishscen1: Yes, the Nvidia graphics drivers for Linux do support SLI configurations.
[19:35] <frank23> ompaul: yeah.
[19:36] <jagggy> is it posible to change the right click popup window in ubuntu -> gnome
[19:36] <rsc___> where can I run to for bash scripting help? :)
[19:36] <msuiter> rsc___: #bash
[19:36] <rsc___> brilliant, thanks :)
[19:36] <Fishscen1> msuiter, Awesome. Is there a specific driver I should use? or how can I verify that it's using SLI mode?
[19:36] <crdlb> jagggy: when you right click on the desktop?
[19:36] <hischild> which is de nvidia driver module that should be written in xorg? nv or nvidia?
[19:36] <jagggy> yes crdlb
[19:36] <nerdsquad3210> anyone tried the new mandriva ?
[19:37] <msuiter> hischild: nvidia if you have the drivers from nvidia
[19:37] <hischild> msuiter, i'm talking about the drivers from the restricted driver manager
[19:37] <crdlb> jagggy: not really then, it's possible for nautilus "extensions" to add items, but you can't customise it beyond that
[19:37] <msuiter> hischild: nv is an open source drive that does not support 3d rendering
[19:37] <crdlb> hischild: nvidia is the proprietary driver
[19:37] <jagggy> ok crdlb ty :)
[19:37] <hischild> msuiter, crdlb, thank you
[19:39] <ompaul> frank23, have a look at net-acct
[19:39] <Matt___> hi there - anybody know much about the partitioner? I'm having some problems
[19:39] <Notscape> ompaul: mm I do not see it
[19:39] <demon_spork> wow, lol
[19:39] <ompaul> Notscape, don't see what?
[19:39] <demon_spork> I just hit altF4 instead of alt+4
[19:40] <Notscape> ompaul: the fix
[19:40] <frank23> ompaul: ok
[19:40] <Vitdom> Hello, i'm new to ubuntu, i'm going to install it when the 8.04 stable version gets released, which one should i use? Ubuntu, Kubuntu or Xubuntu?
[19:40] <Notscape> the problem is that I can not compile clamav0.93
[19:40] <demon_spork> Whenever I set this computer as the DMZ host in the router's setting, this computer can no longer connect to the router or the internet through the router, what could I be doing wrong?
[19:41] <sperry201> vitdom i am new too but have been using Ubuntu
[19:41] <sperry201> I think they are all the same
[19:41] <lordleemo> Vitdom: thats a personal choice start with ubuntu
[19:41] <ompaul> Notscape, you don't have to compile it sudo apt-cache install clamav
[19:41] <Notscape> and there is no clamav fixed againts the upack buffer overflow in dapper repos
[19:41] <Vitdom> What is the differences btw?
[19:41] <ompaul> report the bug
[19:42] <Tollkirk> Vitdom - I found Xubuntu buggy and Kubuntu slow
[19:42] <Notscape> they are already reported, just asking if anybody knows anything else
[19:45] <beniamino> why doesn'r ubuntu include freenx? is it not free enough?
[19:47] <Daemonus> freenx "Hip Hop Edition" wtf?
[19:47] <nerdsquad3210> its not open source
[19:48] <beniamino> nerdsquad3210: it claims to be GPL
[19:48] <ompaul> beniamino, get it into Debian SID
[19:49] <ompaul> beniamino, http://freenx.berlios.de/info.php
[19:49] <bthornton> Every time I plug my iPod into my Ubuntu 7.10 box, Rhythmbox starts up like it wants to manage the iPod. How do I change that default so that AmaroK handles the iPod?
[19:50] <espen> Anuone here who uses pockertracker/pokeroffice or similar programs in unbuntu ? And possibly have some time to help me out ?
[19:51] <GREG> is there a way i can install linux mint as a session on ubuntu like kde ?
[19:51] <rsc___> bthornton: I'm not sure (i dont have access to 7.10 right now), but it *might* be in system - preferences - preferred applications.
[19:51] <bthornton> rsc___: good guess, but it's not :(
[19:51] <rsc___> sigh :)
[19:51] <rsc___> hated that behavior too :)
[19:52] <bthornton> rsc__: There is a setting under a Multimedia tab to select a default Multimedia Player. That was set to Rhythmbox, and I changed it to "Custom" (with amarok as the command). But Rhythmbox still appears.
[19:52] <bjwebb> hi
[19:52] <sjovan> GREG: if i'm not mistakeing... linux mint is a distro. don't think you can do that
[19:52] <XFLXFLXFL> if I buy a wireless linksys G pci card will ubuntu recognize it out of the box???
[19:52] <bjwebb> i get this problem with my pc sporadically
[19:52] <bthornton> XFLXFLXFL: Mine did.
[19:52] <bjwebb> where x is all distorted an unusable
[19:52] <XFLXFLXFL> nice, leme go try that right now :D
[19:52] <Nith> GREG: linux mint is a derivative of ubuntu, it has to do with the core not just the session. It violates the whole free software thing
[19:52] <bjwebb> gdm login screen looks okay, except for two grey lines
[19:53] <broonsparrow> hello, i've installed 7.10 on a avent laptop - runs fine from the cd, installs fine, but when i reboot the computer the screen drivers seem not to work, there are images on the screen but v v v faint. any ideas?
[19:53] <bjwebb> but after i login my "desktop" is skewed up completely
[19:53] <Nith> Anyone have any idea how to install a 3com 3c905-tx card on ubuntu?
[19:53] <beniamino> re NX, it looks like this is the reason: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-nx-group/2007-July/000173.html
[19:53] <bjwebb> anyone have any ideas what to do?
[19:53] <erUSUL> Nith: open the computer case place the card boot
[19:54] <erUSUL> broonsparrow: try booting in recovery mode and doing 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg'
[19:54] <MrBill> when setting up my /etc/export to share out some directories, is it possible to configure it so that all writes to that export are "forced" to a certain user?
[19:54] <rsc___> bthornton, try removable drives and media.
[19:54] <Nith> erUSUL: place the card boot?
[19:55] <Nith> erUSUL: oh, lol
[19:55] <espen> Anuone here who uses pockertracker/pokeroffice or similar programs in unbuntu ? And possibly have some time to help me out ?
[19:55] <Nith> erUSUL: I mean after that part, it wont load the drivers
[19:55] <erUSUL> Nith: yep there is nothing special to do the driver is included
[19:55] <rsc___> bthornton, it should be there, but for some reason on my Hardy setup, it's not (might be there on gutsy) :)
[19:55] <fx|RabBit> !hardy
[19:55] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[19:55] <Nith> erUSUL: this box won't load them. When I start up nm-applet give mes "No network devices have been found"
[19:56] <Siph0n> If my network stops working, and I do a /etc/init.d/networking restart, and it just says their is no working leases available, is that a prob with my router? or my config? If I restart it works perfectly for awhile.... and my router is set to give my laptop the same ip address every time...
[19:56] <erUSUL> Nith: sudo modprobe 3c59x ???
[19:56] <broonsparrow> cheers i'll give it a shot.
[19:56] <Nith> erUSUL: I've done that too, and lsmod | grep 3c59 gives me two modules loaded
[19:57] <erUSUL> Nith: ifconfiog does not show a ethx interface ???
[19:57] <Nith> erUSUL: ifconfig only shows lo
[19:58] <Nith> and ifup eth0 gives me one error per line of /etc/network/interfaces
[19:58] <Nith> which is because it doesnt know what eth0 is
[19:59] <Aggil> i have problems mounting a samba share on my laptop

[20:01] <Pelo> tks
[20:01] <Nith> erUSUL: any ideas?
[20:01] <erUSUL> Nith: it is pci, isn't it? it is weird that it just wont work...
[20:02] <erUSUL> Nith: maybe there is some parameter we can pass to the module but i dunno which
[20:02] <erUSUL> Nith: the card shows up in lspci??
[20:02] <Pelo> broonsparrow, reboot, select it from the grub boot menu , if you don'T useualy get the boot menu , hit the esc key right after the bios information
[20:02] <vinconzo> anybody here who knows a nice linux game that will run on an old Pentium 333MHz/324MB pc?

[20:02] <Tonisius> tetris..
[20:02] <Tonisius> I mean blocks
[20:03] <rsc___> klondike? gnome-sudoku?
[20:03] <Tonisius> I think it's called blocks
[20:03] <tawt> if we upgrade to hardy from gutsy, do we loose all of our apps and documents?
[20:03] <Tonisius> they all run on 90mhz P1
[20:03] <vinconzo> ok
[20:04] <Flannel> tawt: no, its an upgrade, you don't lose* anything (* there's no excuse for not having backups of your data)
[20:04] <tawt> Flannel:  thanks

[20:06] <rsc___> I'm looking for help in getting rsync to work right -- where can i ask for help?
[20:06] <Sake> is rsync my best bet for remote bakcups? Is there an alternative I should look into?

[20:09] <Siph0n> if my router is set up as a DHCP server, can i also have a static configuration in my /etc/network/interfaces file?
[20:10] <Nith> erUSUL: it attempted to connect to some sourceforge page and failed (name or service not known) cause of no network connection
[20:10] <kistral> I have a friend who I'm helping get started with Linux by installing Ubuntu.  They're going to reinstall, but they've got some files on a partition and we want them to stay there.  How do they tell the installer to use existing partitions (/dev/hda1 for /, /dev/hda3 for swap) and not reformat /dev/hda2?
[20:11] <erUSUL> Nith: :| i dunno what else to try
[20:13]  * Nith is sticking in another card
[20:13] <Nith> its a 3c905c-tx instead of 3c905-tx
[20:13] <Nith> erUSUL: thx for the help though
[20:14] <hischild> i would be able to watch video and do other stuff which is not 3d based with the free driver, correct?
[20:15] <Nith> erUSUL: the other card works
[20:15] <Nith> erUSUL: wow, I've been at this for 3 and a half hours
[20:15] <erUSUL> Nith: congrats

[20:33] <MrBill> TailsLinux: I only have SSH access at the moment, is there a way to do the same thing from a prompt?
[20:33] <Notscape> MrBill: edit /etc/passwd
[20:33] <MrBill> Can I just open up the /etc/passwd file and make the change? or will that bust stuff?
[20:34] <Notscape> yeah that is the way
[20:34] <MrBill> I then need to search for all files with the old UID and chown them over to the new UID, right?
[20:34] <lusepuster> Is there a way to make Rhythmbox use an On Screen display like Amarok or Exaile?

[20:36] <rkvirani> How might I go about troubleshooting suspend support on my Thinkpad T61
[20:36] <Notscape> MrBill: rigth !
[20:36] <torgrimt> rkvirani: does it not wake up properly?
[20:36] <rkvirani> torgrimt: no, no display
[20:36] <rkvirani> Nvidia card.
[20:37] <torgrimt> never  or sometimes?
[20:37] <rkvirani> 128MB N140 or something
[20:37] <rkvirani> never.
[20:37] <torgrimt> oki, the restricted driver is not compatible with the nvidia card
[20:37] <torgrimt> so download the newest from their website
[20:37] <torgrimt> nvidia.com
[20:37] <rkvirani> it keeps me from running ubuntu on my laptop because I _need_ powermanagment to work flawlessly
[20:37] <rkvirani> torgrimt: dont use the ubuntu ones? "Restricted Drivers" package?
[20:38] <torgrimt> yes
[20:38] <torgrimt> its version 100 or so
[20:38] <rkvirani> alright
[20:38] <rkvirani> I will give that a shot, thanks!
[20:38] <torgrimt> on the webpage its 150-160
[20:38] <rkvirani> torgrimt: thanks dude!
[20:38] <rkvirani> (ubuntu 8.04 here we come!)
[20:38] <torgrimt> np ;)
[20:38] <rkvirani> Its a really nice laptop, I had tried OS86 on it but no wifi support :(
[20:39] <rsc___> what laptop is it?
[20:39] <rkvirani> Thinkpad T61 14.1 (1440x900) Intel Core 2 Duo 2.6 6MB L2 Cache ......
[20:39] <torgrimt> yes i haveone myself
[20:39] <torgrimt> t61p
[20:40] <rkvirani> torgrimt: you like :)
[20:40] <torgrimt> broke it yesterday
[20:40] <rsc___> and it has an nvidia?
[20:40] <rkvirani> whats the difference between P and no P
[20:40] <rkvirani> ouch! what happened?
[20:40] <torgrimt> the p is the delux modell
[20:40] <torgrimt> it has an nvidia quadro 570 or so
[20:40] <rkvirani> oh, I didnt get the delux model what does it have that mine doesnt?
[20:40] <torgrimt> there was a new bios for more stable sleep
[20:40] <rkvirani> dang it
[20:40] <rkvirani> I wonder if I can upgrademine
[20:40] <torgrimt> so... smart me though that i could use the tool witch was in windows
[20:40] <torgrimt> the ibm updater tool
[20:41] <torgrimt> hadent booted windows vista since it was brand new
[20:41] <torgrimt> and ofc, windows had to reboot while it was flashing
[20:41] <rkvirani> Vista sucks ass
[20:41] <torgrimt> so.. it died ;)
[20:41] <rkvirani> so so so sloow
[20:41] <rkvirani> what is ofc?
[20:41] <torgrimt> of cause
[20:41] <torgrimt> rebooting while flashing is not a good idea ;)
[20:42] <rkvirani> Im sorry
[20:42] <rkvirani> thats all you bud
[20:42] <torgrimt> the only thing thats working...is the light for power
[20:42] <torgrimt> dont worry, lenovo will give me a new one
[20:43] <rsc___> hey guys, I just installed heron beta (on my gutsy+winxp dual boot system) and now, WXP isnt on my grub list. I tried adding it myself by manually editing menu.lst, but I can't boot into WinXP anymore.
[20:43] <torgrimt> did you add chainloader rkvirani ?
[20:43] <rkvirani> the T61p might have worked in OS X
[20:43] <rkvirani> though I think there is a kext patch
[20:43] <torgrimt> rkvirani: not sound or wireless
[20:44] <rkvirani> on yours?
[20:44] <jaypro> whats a good program to manage a network webcam?
[20:44] <torgrimt> the intel card dosent work
[20:44] <rkvirani> torgrimt: what is chainloader?
[20:44] <rkvirani> I have the NVIDIA
[20:44] <torgrimt> an option to grub, to tell it to load the windows bootloader
[20:44] <torgrimt> it was not for you rkvirani ;)
[20:44] <rkvirani> torgrimt: thanks sorry
[20:44] <torgrimt> it was for rsc___
[20:44] <torgrimt> ;)
[20:44] <rkvirani> chainloader +!
[20:44] <rkvirani> chainloader +1
[20:44] <fx|RabBit> whats xinetd actually?
[20:45] <rsc___> torgrimt, I've added it (with chainloader +1 too). crimsun, yep. it shows up on my grub lsit now. unfortunately when i try to use it, I get a system error. (and asks me to press ctrl+alt+del)
[20:45] <rkvirani> fx|RabBit: its the net inetd
[20:45] <torgrimt> fx|RabBit: replacement for inetd. spawns prosesses when something access the ports
[20:45] <rkvirani> rsc___: you probably inadvertatnly changed the partition order
[20:45] <rkvirani> NTLDR is a peice
[20:46] <rsc___> rkvirani, maybe. I did do some gparted'ing before installing heron.
[20:46] <rsc___> how can I fix it? :o
[20:46] <bullium> Does anyone have a suggestion for an application that would display a popup message near the clock when my asterisk extension has a voicemail?
[20:46] <arnath> hi, i'm getting "ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid argument" when trying to "losetup -e aes"
[20:46] <ice_cream> if i have multiple versions of an app, how do i change which one starts?
[20:46] <rkvirani> rsc___: bleh boot with your CD and edit boot.ini I believe
[20:46] <Flare183> !hardy | rsc___
[20:46] <ubotu> rsc___: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[20:46] <b47619> what is the name of the java package?
[20:46] <fx|RabBit> rkvirani:  torgrimt humkay but what does that basically do?
[20:46] <Flare183> !java | b47619
[20:46] <ubotu> b47619: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)
[20:47] <rsc___> rkvirani, c:\boot.ini?
[20:47] <rkvirani> rsc___: yeah
[20:47] <rsc___> rkvirani, I have the partition mounted and I dont see boot.ini. gasp!
[20:47] <fx|RabBit> ’╗┐rkvirani:  torgrimt or what do i need it ofr?
[20:47] <rkvirani> fx|RabBit: it will manage the firing up of internet services so you dont have to have all the server software loaded and waiting on stnadby
[20:47] <torgrimt> fx|RabBit: its for spawning network services
[20:47] <torgrimt> for instance apache
[20:47] <torgrimt> or ident
[20:47] <rkvirani> xinetd will manage those servers and fire the appropriate servers based on the port and incomming traffic
[20:48] <rsc___> rkvirani, I just foudn instructions (from microsoft.com) on how to 'rebuild' it. when I do, and in case GRUB messes up, what do I do? :)
[20:49] <fx|RabBit> ’╗┐rkvirani:  torgrimt i see thank you guys
[20:49] <Adys>  Is there any reasons I wouldnt be able to access the terminals from ctrl alt f1-f7?
[20:49] <fx|RabBit> i got one more: whats npviewer?
[20:49] <torgrimt> time to get drunk ;) later
[20:50] <Sake> should I be using rsync, rdiff-backup or rsnapshot for automated incremental backups? How do I decide?
[20:50] <rkvirani> rsc___: it lives in the MBR so it will kill grub
[20:50] <rkvirani> you will have to reinstall grub
[20:50] <rsc___> rkvirani, is this as simple as booting to my Ubuntu CD and doing update-grub?
[20:50] <rkvirani> boot with your ubuntu cd and re-install grub
[20:50] <rkvirani> there is a good grub howto on gentoo.org
[20:51] <rkvirani> rsc___: I dontknow alot about apt
[20:51] <rsc___> okay..
[20:51] <rkvirani> I would mount you root filesystem run grub pointing to your config file on the mounted partition and re-install it
[20:51] <rkvirani> setup
[20:51] <rkvirani> install
[20:51] <rkvirani> quit
[20:51] <rkvirani> or some such

[20:54] <b47619> !RPM
[20:54] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[20:54] <blackgraz> linxeh, that would be a no no
[20:54] <blackgraz> :)
[20:54] <erUSUL> CyaNox: System>Prefs>preferred apps ??

[20:55] <TooEarly> how do i resume from rsync, if i used ssh and a different port. i can't get it to work right
[20:55] <CyaNox> erUSUL: thanks.
[20:55] <blackgraz> linxeh, ive already read thru that
[20:55] <blackgraz> i cant export
[20:55] <linxeh> blackgraz: pretty much. most of us use virtualbox or the vmware player
[20:55] <someone23> okay, I'm doing limits in calculus, and according to the answer book lim as x approaches infinity of (1+1/x)^x is e and i would really love to know why. somebody please explain this to me. i know this is off topic, but sombody please help because there is nobody in math right now...

[20:55] <DFM> When I start 8.04 and look at the system monitor it shows my processor constantly running at 85 to 100 % but nothing in process list shows to be pegging the processor.
[20:55] <Starnestommy> b47619: use sudo
[20:55] <rkvirani> b47619: sudo bash
[20:55] <b47619> don't think sudo works
[20:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !ot > someone23
[20:56] <b47619> unless it allows writing to ./usr
[20:56] <rkvirani> b47619: then you must be running linuxeh
[20:56] <Starnestommy> b47619: sudo does
[20:56] <blackgraz> wait
[20:56] <blackgraz> nm
[20:56] <Starnestommy> just put 'sudo' before the command that you want to run and it should run as root
[20:56] <blackgraz> i was doing export in the wrong dir

[21:01] <pere_> Hi everybody! i have problems to configure my audio, I want to record in I can even use skype!

[21:02] <ubotu> To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[21:02] <blackgraz> rkvirani, yes
[21:02] <blackgraz> its all installed
[21:04] <rkvirani> what is the error?
[21:04] <modulargaming> any suggestions on optimising ubuntu 8.0.4 as a web server?
[21:04] <pere_>  Hi everybody! i have problems to configure my audio, I want to record in I can even use skype! can I check di micro?
[21:04] <blackgraz> http://pastebin.com/m2581cde7
[21:04] <b47619_> would just deleting the java directory uninstall it?
[21:04] <Jack_Sparrow> modulargaming, Yes, by asking in Ubuntu+1
[21:05] <blackgraz> take a peak if anyone can suggest what im missing
[21:05] <_tpp_> is there a version of the 'intel' driver that does not perform modesetting?
[21:05] <Jack_Sparrow> pere_, did you read the link from ubotu on recoding wiuth skype
[21:05] <b47619_> to remove java that installed ot a directory in ym home folde rI just delete it right?

[21:06] <b47619_> !sound
[21:06] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[21:06] <b47619_> thought that would work
[21:07] <pere_> but I also want to record audio, so I make music, so is important to me to control the micro
[21:07] <Jack_Sparrow> pere_, /join #Alsa

[21:09] <Ace2016> Hi all
[21:09] <Ace2016> has anyone tried merging the ubuntu desktop and alternative disks into one?
[21:09] <daf_> Someone help! X is segfaulting     http://marky.noffle.net/Xorg.0.log    http://marky.noffle.net/xorg.conf
[21:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Ace2016, there is a dvd yes
[21:10] <Ace2016> so that the alternative install is just another option on the boot menu of a unified disk?
[21:10] <Ace2016> could they not fit both onto one cd?
[21:10] <Ace2016> or are there that big of a difference?
[21:10]  * Ace2016 thought that the dvd version had all the desktop environments
[21:10] <DeadLy_sp> hello
[21:10] <Ace2016> Hi
[21:11] <Odd-rationale> Ace2016: the dvd has the live, alternative, and server cd in one.
[21:11] <Odd-rationale> Ace2016: there is a kubuntu dvd and ubuntu dvd
[21:11] <MrBill> Is there a way for me to search and list all files that belong to GID 1001?
[21:12] <Ace2016> why can't we just have all the desktops + live/alternative installers?
[21:12] <Ace2016> just leave server as a separate disk, surely the average user is unlikely to install that first
[21:12] <happyface> anyone here have a Dell XPS M1530?
[21:12] <Myrtti> Ace2016: one reason is that not all hardware is cabable of running the desktop session at all
[21:12] <Jack_Sparrow> !ot > Ace2016,
[21:13] <Myrtti> thanks Jack_Sparrow
[21:13] <Notscape> MrBill: try ls -Rn / |grep 1001
[21:13] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[21:13] <tijayz> ubuntu uses 82/ ext2 right?

[21:14] <Sinnerman> what would be the easiest/fastest way of transfering a file from a vmware server ubuntu guest machine to the host?
[21:14] <MrBill> Notscape: that kinda mostly works..... though it finds stuff with 1001 in the size as well or in the datestamp
[21:14] <ompaul> Sinnerman, is ssh an option
[21:15] <ompaul> Sinnerman, don't use vmware
[21:15] <Sinnerman> ompaul: if i know how to set it up, that would work? well, i wouldn't use vmware, but that's what im used to using, and i had it already installed.
[21:15] <Notscape> MrBill: yes, try to touch someking the grep criteria

[21:17] <giza> Hello, I'm having a problem with my swap partition. I was trying to run Counter-Strike in Wine when the game froze my entire computer, and I was forced to manually power down my laptop. Ever since then, large apps like Firefox 3b5 stall my system quite frequently when running them. It shows swap's total in System Monitor but 0 bytes are used, thus swap is still messed up. I tried "mkswap /dev/sda2" but it didn't make a difference. Note: sda2 is

[21:22] <ompaul> Sinnerman, so the file you want to move is called foo and you want to move it to the home directory of user1 on the ubuntu box so: scp foo user1@ip-of-server:/home/user1/.
[21:23] <Sinnerman> ompaul: oh i see. i actually logged onto the vmbox with ssh instead.

[21:25] <acid_> I'm running 8.04 and have some problem with the gnome-display-properties application : I could switch to my videoprojector output turning off my laptop screen, but when I tried to switch of the tv out and get the laptop screen back I ended with 2 black screens. Is there any cmd line application from console to change resolution back ?
[21:25] <daf_> Ubuntu 6.06.2  when I reboot my X segfaults, if I recompile the new drivers I can get it to start up until the next reboot, then I must repeat. Any ideas?!?
[21:25] <P_Kable> So i need to know how imac people do with ubuntu
[21:25] <nick_> erUSUL: I dont have X installed, so I need command line instructions... can't seem to find them with google.

[21:26] <nkriz> hello all, relatively new to ubuntu/linux and i'm trying to wipe the hard drive of another comp before installing 7.10
[21:26] <erUSUL> nick_: cups is managed through a web interface...
[21:26] <swatTX> can someone recommend a program to convert AVIs to MP4s?
[21:26] <kajo> P_Kable, I have a friend that is a power mac user, and he also loves linux. His son has followed in his footsteps, and also introduced me to linux.
[21:26] <alex__> Any pointer to which ATI support will 8.04 include?
[21:26] <Myrtti> hello nkriz, having problems?
[21:26] <nkriz> dunno how to do it tho
[21:26] <P_Kable> kajo=>  good
[21:26] <ompaul> alex__, what it is doing today and maybe a slight tweek on that
[21:26] <erUSUL> nick_: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PrintingCupsWebInterface?highlight=(web)|(interface)|(cups)
[21:26] <kajo> np, P_Kable

[21:27] <erUSUL> swatTX: ffmpeg ??
[21:27] <nkriz> myrtti, i think what i'm trying to do is called a 'zero wipe', but i'm not sure how to do it
[21:27] <acid_> ok so let me rephrase my question : is there any command line application to change resolution of a running X session (ie. from vt1) ?
[21:27] <ompaul> alex__, you need to visit #ubuntu+1 for more detail
[21:27] <nick_> erUSUL: ok I see... I thought cups was just for printers attached to the server... I'll check that out, Thanks!!
[21:27] <alex__> ompaul: thanks!

[21:27] <Notscape> MrBill: that way awk is only printing the lines containing your UID at position 3
[21:28] <Myrtti> nkriz: you can do it almost any linuxes with a command called dd
[21:28] <Notscape> position 3 corresponds to UID in a ls -n
[21:28] <freq_fraq> Hi. I'm new to linux and want to try ubuntu.

[21:44] <MrBill> It didn't really occur to me that it would only be files in the home dir that had the GID i was looking to change
[21:44] <MrBill> I'm sorta still wrapping my head around the filestructure of things here, I'm a pretty recent WinXP convert
[21:44] <dan_> hello everyone
[21:44] <Notscape> MrBill: for home only is easy, for filesystem spread files --> ls -Rn / |awk '$3 ~ /1001/ {print $0}'
[21:45] <dan_> i have a question regarding video cards and wireless cards.
[21:45] <dan_> if anyone has the time
[21:45] <MrBill> this all started when I had to change the UID and GID of some of the users in my family to get two machines coordinated for NFS permissions.
[21:46] <nick_> erUSUL:  How do I add a samba shared printer in CUPS?  how do I determine the URI?
[21:46] <MrBill> I had to take my UID/GID 1001 user and move them to 1003 on my Ubuntu system, but their files didn't change permissions with them. Is it safe to assume that the only place they would own any files is in their /home directory?
[21:46] <mark7> find / -gid 1001 if you want to check
[21:46] <mark7> Probably, yes.  Maybe stuff in /tmp for the current boot

[21:47] <dan_> anyone know why my PCI wireless adapter disappears when i install a new Nvidia GeForce 5500 Graphics card?
[21:47] <Notscape> MrBill: if this is a simple user it is highly probable that only have files in its home
[21:47] <mark7> dan_: You try switching the slot that the adaptor is in?
[21:47] <Lamego> MrBill, unless they have root privileges or you created a directory with privileges for them, they are not allowed to write of the home dir
[21:47] <dan_> yes
[21:47] <dan_> i've tried all slots
[21:47] <kakashi-sempai> dan_ , pci conflict
[21:47] <Lamego> out of
[21:47] <dan_> how do i solve that? I'm relatively new to the world of linux
[21:47] <FD_F> dan:_ try install the Nvidia with envy
[21:48] <dan_> i did install with envy
[21:48] <dan_> and without envy
[21:48] <dan_> and from website
[21:48] <kajo> freq fraq, I can't find anything about it on google.
[21:48] <MrBill> Ok perfect, then changing the GID of the files inside home should do the trick. It's a user with no root/sudo access that has been doing very basic things
[21:48] <kajo> Bizarre problem to me. Never heard of that.
[21:49] <kajo> Have you tried booting in safe mode?
[21:49] <dan_> who, kajo?
[21:49] <kajo> freq_fraq
[21:49] <dan_> ahh sorry
[21:49] <kajo> Did he leave? I was on google for a while, I might have been too long.
[21:49] <Notscape> MrBill: yes
[21:49] <freq_fraq> kajo: yes. the exact same thing happened. Is there a "good" forum to write about my problem?
[21:50] <dan_> so kakashi, is it a port problem? like two devices trying to acquire the same port? or am i speaking windows garbage?
[21:50] <Quicksilva> how do you unzip a .exe file?  (if its possible)
[21:50] <Dell-Net> hi
[21:50] <kajo> ubuntu forums, and you could always try joining /#linux
[21:50] <mark7> Quicksilva: If it's an executable zip archive, "unzip" will work.
[21:50] <kakashi-sempai> dan_ , IMO it sounds like an IRQ conflict in your BIOS, but there could be more.
[21:51] <dan_> oh lordy

[21:51] <tijayz> how would i run rsync daemon?
[21:52] <kajo> Thought it was worth asking. I'm 8k there.
[21:52] <tijayz> from livecd
[21:52] <tijayz> i run rsync --daemon
[21:52] <mark7> dan_: I mean, run dmesg, and look at the output :-)

[21:52] <RoAkSoAx> Quicksilva, and wen you installed gutsy... network manager didn recognize it automatically?
[21:52] <dan_> ok, so, you think it's eventually possible to get both woring in tandem? i returned the graphic card this morning, but i can always go pick it up again if need be.
[21:52] <mark7> Dell-Net: I mean, a whole number of hours?
[21:52] <Dell-Net> yes it is mark
[21:53] <Dell-Net> 3 hours late are the cairo clock
[21:53] <mark7> Dell-Net: And "date" shows the correct time?
[21:53] <Quicksilva> RoAkSoAx, My wireless works... but I have disconnects randomly all the time
[21:53] <kakashi-sempai> nick_ , it should be smb:\\hostname\Printer
[21:53] <Dell-Net> yes
[21:54] <Quicksilva> RoAkSoAx, i end up having to reconnect all the time to keep my net up
[21:54] <dan_> cool thanks guys :)
[21:54] <mark7> Dell-Net: Okay...I don't use GNOME, unfortunately, so I'm not really familiar with the GNOME clock (which I assume is what you're referring to) but I'd imagine that it lets you set a different timezone on a clock.
[21:54] <mark7> Dell-Net: Might try right-clicking on the clock and looking at the settings there, see if the timezone is in there.
[21:54] <RoAkSoAx> Quicksilva, i believe there are some bugs related to the rt25x0 driver... i think the only way to get them work right is to change to hardy !
[21:54] <Quicksilva> RoAkSoAx, oh cool they are fixed in hardy now??
[21:55] <Dell-Net> mark7 yeap the gnome clock is correct and date and zone its the screenlet cairo clockthat is 3hours late
