[18:45] <cheeky> holly crap .. thats alot of ways find ..it .is there a neways i can take notes.. down ..like in windows notepad ..or does ubuntu have something better ?
[18:45] <cyix> hi, where can I look so I can boot up in console mode only, with the option to boot back into X at a later time?
[18:45] <vlad> xxploit : ok I opened terminal and now its downloading is there something I must do after it finishes downloading ?
[18:45] <cheeky> deviantintegral: recursive meaning ?
[18:46] <xxploit> rajec, whereis programname, most are installed in /usr/bin or /usr/bin/local
[18:46] <CommanderCool> xxploit: i'd like to use speed stepping etc as it is a laptop
[18:46] <xxploit> vlad, no itll setup everything
[18:46] <petrele> carandraug:my computer is not powerful enough to run a virtual box inside.
[18:46] <vlad> ah oki thanx
[18:46] <owlchild> has anyone ever duel booted ubuntu and leopard from their pc?
[18:46] <Shout1> anybody here running on a dell d600?
[18:46] <deviantintegral> cheeky: look in all subdirectories as well. though find / locate are probably better for your task
[18:46] <carandraug> CommanderCool: don't know what to do. But just don't repeat I need help, I need help. Write your problem as well and have patience
[18:46] <benbloom> testing
[18:47] <drugo> hello
[18:47] <benbloom> ah. I'm on I see. hello world
[18:47] <xbxb> I just read that the advantage of keeping my /home directory on a separate partition, is that I can re-install another Linux flavor and still keep all the settings and files in the /home directory. My question is: Isn't it possible that some programs use configuration files in both /home/ and /etc/? And when I use my old /home on a new and fresh install with a new /etc, the program might not work, right?
[18:47] <drugo> anyone knows how to change menucolor in gtkrc file?
[18:47] <cheeky> deviantintegral: then grep is not a fined option?
[18:47] <carandraug> benbloom: your script's working
[18:48] <Pici> xbxb: /etc is for system wide configs, user configs go in /home
[18:48] <CommanderCool> this channel sucks. im going home.
[18:48] <reza> NAMES
[18:48] <deviantintegral> cheeky: grep looks *inside* files. find / locate generally look at the file names
[18:48] <xxploit> lol@CommanderCool
[18:48] <carandraug> petrele: not at all? Not even if it's only to do the file conversion?
[18:48] <rajec> what is the easiest way to find out where is some program installed ? From windows I am used to click on desktop link(icon)
[18:49] <benbloom> lol. thanks carandraug
[18:49] <cyix> hi, where can I look so I can boot up in console mode only, with the option to boot back into X at a later time?
[18:49] <magc> hey--i just reinstall windows and now trying to reinstall grub--it's not working
[18:49] <Shout1> Can someone help me with driver trouble?
[18:49] <magc> i'm on the livecd
[18:49] <magc> how do i know where to set it up to?
[18:49] <carandraug> xbxb: /etc should be for general settings. If you have that options in /home, they'll override the /etc
[18:50] <cheeky> deviantintegral: So its like cat funtion and ..locate function ..together ?>
[18:50] <shey> Im just curious as to when the linux community started calling modules drivers.
[18:50] <macvr> hi, guys....i was having a GDM error:<server authorization directory (deamon/servauthdir) is set to   /var/lib/gdm but this does not exist. Please correct gdm configuration and restart gdm                             <ok>>            i tired doin this<sudo -i    mkdir /mnt/linux    mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/linux   find /mnt/linux -type d -exec chmod 755 '{}' \;   find /mnt/linux -type f -exec chmod 644 '{}' \;   umount /mnt/linux  exit> but now my system gets S
[18:50] <shey> drivers is soooo windows.
[18:50] <xbxb> Pici, carandraug: thanks.
[18:50] <gaintsura> could someone help me out with this? I disabled compiz to try to install a game last night, and ever since then, I cannot login to gnome, it locks up and I have to restart X, currently in fluxbox, here is a sys log of what happened every time I tried to start in gnome. http://pastie.org/269063
[18:51] <petrele> carandraug:before i do works with a lot of software in xp, i want to find some way to do the jobs in ubuntu instead.
[18:52] <magc> when i'm in grub---where do I set 'root' and 'setup' to?
[18:52] <magc> s/where/what

[18:52] <douye> petrele: using linux is anoying with a school that gets windows stuff :< got the same prob here kinda.. just happy I can stay in ubuntu most of the time now
[18:52] <xxploit> rajec, open terminal and type 'whereis <programname>' your installed apps will be setup in your applications menu for you...but most apps can be found in /usr/bin or /usr/bin/local...gnome also has a search tool which can locate a program
[18:52] <carandraug> petrele: oh, ok. I mentioned because you said, convesion from docx ro doc was the reason you still have windows. Anyway, I find the best way to find alternatives in Linux is to completely ditch Windows. That way, you're forced to search and use them instead of just rebooting and do it in Windows
[18:53] <turk> hey guys and girls can anyone help me setup a local database where I can practice queries? I have my .sql start script i'm just not sure how to build the database

[18:55] <Owner> I am trying to install a package from source. but when I run the configure script, it errors saying that my gcc does not create executables.  How do I correct this?
[18:56] <carandraug> petrele: but if you don't fell confident enough to ditch windows now, it's better to wait then
[18:56] <douye> carandraug: doesnt work when you gotta program in C# xD or atleast.. i dont wanna use wine for it :P
[18:56] <petrele> carandraug:that's i talk about. i'm doing my degree paper now. i need a little time now.

[18:59] <turk> shout1: system > administration > synaptic package manager
[18:59] <petrele> carandraug:yes. there is so many people using linux in school.

[19:02] <_Progress_> hi, I use ubuntu 8.04(hardy i guess) 64 bit version. Can someone help me to install java browser plugin. I cant find it in standart 64 bit jre package. <_< ?!?
[19:02] <rajec> MRKENNIE: I've tried several things. I need to know  path to file which is used for running java programs
[19:02] <td123> !java | _Progress_
[19:02] <gaintsura> turk: alright, get mysql-gui tools, that will give you user/database and query administration
[19:02] <douye> petrele: same here.. dont understand them tho as i find linux way better then windows, just hate the internet from my school.. as ubuntu drops it often
[19:02] <carandraug> petrele: in my degree there's no one else using Linux. And most of them didn't even heard about it. But we're getting a little off-topic
[19:02] <MrKennie> rajec: have you installed that package I mentioned? you should be able to find it in synaptics
[19:02] <rajec> td123: I have installed
[19:02] <rajec> there are installed
[19:02] <gaintsura> turk: setup a user (if you haven't already
[19:02] <rapha_k> Hello
[19:02] <rapha_k> he
[19:02] <td123> rajec: did you install the java plugin...
[19:03] <turk> gaintsura: ok i'll try that now
[19:03] <_Progress_> ubottu: i have installed sun-java6-jre but there is no browser plugin in there. <_<
[19:03] <rajec> td123: I have jav installed
[19:03] <P4n[t]3r> _Progress_  version?
[19:03] <MrKennie> rajec: in a terminal type which java
[19:03] <td123> rajec: do "sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin"
[19:03] <petrele> douye:yes. i also think so. but linux is a little too hard to ordinary people
[19:03] <rajec> td123 what is plugin for?
[19:03] <petrele> carandraug:a little
[19:04] <td123> rajec: for ff
[19:04] <_Progress_> P4n[t]3r: Version: 6-06-0ubuntu1
[19:04] <douye> petrele: hmm not really tbh, just need to get the hang of it just like windows.. and then in the end it works better and faster
[19:04] <P4n[t]3r> :O
[19:04] <rajec> td123: I dont need ff java plugin I need path to JDK
[19:04] <td123> rajec: what are you talking about? is java working or not?
[19:04] <MrKennie> rajec: in a terminal type "which java" (without quotes)
[19:04] <petrele> carandraug:but this is a proble to solved for linux communite.
[19:04] <carandraug> petrele: it's not hard to ordinary people. It's hard to people used to windows. BUt we shouldn't really thread on this in this channel. #ubuntu-offtopic is better
[19:05] <rapha_k> Hello, I have a little problem with open office: The buttons in the Standard-menue-bar consist of text. How can I cange the settings, so there are symbols instead of text?
[19:05] <petrele> carandraug:yes. the topic is off now.
[19:05] <rajec> MRKENNIE: usr/bin/java
[19:06] <rajec> td123: yes but I need path to JDK!
[19:06] <turk> gaintsura: i installed mysql-gui-common.  how do i bring up the gui?
[19:06] <MrKennie> rajec: there it is :)
[19:06] <petrele> carandraug:there is another question
[19:06] <MrKennie> rajec: right
[19:06] <rajec> MRKENNIE:  java is file
[19:06] <rajec> ?
[19:06] <_Progress_> with apt-file a found the plugin  here ia32-sun-java6-bin
[19:06] <Aidso> hello there people. I am complete beginner to Ubuntu and seem to be stumbling at the first hurdle of getting my wirless internet working on my laptop. It comes and goes after a lot of faffing about but i am thinking something just isnt configured correctly.  I'll help if I can but I have to leave soon
[19:06] <_Progress_> and what does it mean ia32
[19:06] <node357> means only 32-bit
[19:06] <RoadHazard> thats the 32 bit
[19:07] <gaintsura> turk, you're in a gui already correct? it should be in the main menu
[19:07] <rajec> MRKENNIE:  thing is I am istalling netbeans and I need to set path for application server and it always say that user/bin/java doesnt contain jdk
[19:07] <_Progress_> is that bad :D sorry for stupid question
[19:07] <petrele> carandraug:i installed my ubuntu with the min mode and then the xorg. but the desktop show too slow, does you know where the problem is?
[19:07] <mohshami> hey guys, I've been given the task of migrating one of our offices away from propriety software. I was thinking ubuntu for the desktops, is there a tool for centralized management and updates? Something like WSUS for windows?
[19:07] <RoadHazard> I'm installing the jre right now, have a path for you in a min
[19:07] <MrKennie> rajec: OK< I thought you wanted the path to the java executable itself
[19:07] <petrele> carandraug:it's ok.
[19:08] <turk> gaintsura: i can't find it under applications
[19:08] <RoadHazard> you can do it from the terminal too turk
[19:08] <gaintsura> turk: otherwise, if its not there, you can alt+f2 mysql-admin
[19:09] <gaintsura> RoadHazard: what is the gui mysql-query browser?
[19:09] <gaintsura> I can't remember it
[19:09] <_Progress_> btw i download official self extraction bin of jre and there no plugin too <<
[19:09] <RoadHazard> mysql-admin
[19:09] <carandraug> petrele: probably with your graph card configuration. You shouldn't mess with it right now if you can't risk to spend one day fixing it
[19:09] <gaintsura> theres a mysql-query-browser too that comes with that package
[19:10] <gaintsura> turk: the other is exactly that 'mysql-query-browser.
[19:10] <gaintsura> s/./'.
[19:10] <petrele> carandraug:i checked the log file of the xorg and find nothing is wrong.
[19:10] <MrKennie> rajec: this looks liek a good guide on setting up java http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/howto-ubuntu-linux-install-configure-jdk-jre/
[19:10] <Sadie> hi, a question related to your naming scheme, who thought up the name "Jaunty Jackalope" and were they actually drunk/stoned/mentally ill at the time?
[19:11] <MrKennie> rajec: I don't have any other experience with java
[19:11] <RoadHazard> sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
[19:11] <petrele> carandraug:it's ok. it can work. i can fix it few days later.
[19:11] <yesssssss> hi
[19:11] <turk> gaintsura: i tried alt+f2 mysql-admin and i got location or could not be found
[19:11] <carandraug> petrele: but some drivers won't give all the power of your graph card. Or maybe it's a completely different issue
[19:11] <gaintsura> turk: mysqladmin maybe?
[19:12] <petrele> carandraug:i'm leaving now.i'm in asia. it's the mid-night. good bye
[19:12] <carandraug> petrele: see ya
[19:12] <petrele> carandraug; see ya
[19:13] <rajec> MrKennie: thank for that! hh I don't why maybe because nick and because that you helped me, but you seem friendly :D
[19:13] <gaintsura> turk: try '/usr/bin/mysql-admin' and '/usr/bin/mysql-query-browser'
[19:13] <turk> gaintsura: hmm..i still can't get a gui.  I can type mysql in the terminal and it brings me to mysql> prompt
[19:13] <MrKennie> rajec: np :)
[19:13] <turk> gaintsura: i'll try that real quick
[19:14] <gaintsura> turk: ok, that will work

[19:15] <rajec> MrKennie: ou that thing
[19:15] <gaintsura> MrKennie: in vi how do you delete a line?

[19:16] <Coder7> both servers can ping each other, and the workstation can ping server A and other machines, but can't ping server B
[19:17] <Coder7> the ping packets are making it to server B (confirmed via tcpdump), but server B doesn't respond to them
[19:17] <MrKennie> rajec: if you follow that guide you will see. YOu can always replace sudo vi in that guide with gksudo gedit
[19:17] <Sadie> l/part
[19:17] <gaintsura> MrKennie: you're not the only one
[19:17] <uira> everything good?
[19:17] <Coder7> I'm assuming the cause has something to do with async routes, but I don't know how to make things work
[19:17] <Coder7> any ideas?

[19:29] <H0T_R0D> maybe if i put ln -s /dev/ttyAGS3 /dev/ttySAGR and ln -s /dev/ttyAGS3 /dev/modem somewhere ?? maybe it will work...
[19:29] <OsamaK> Hi, is there a way to remove folder's cache? I mean something like "file.txt~"
[19:30] <MrKennie> H0T_R0D: you could but using udev rules is the preferred way
[19:30] <Jowi> arnell, what I have done myself though is simply to set up cron as root to rsync what I want to an external disk. It runs each night when I am sound asleep. It's simple and works fine (for me).
[19:30] <H0T_R0D> let me go try something....lol
[19:31] <BenB> how do I build initrd (to use my own kernel) *without* creating and installing deb packages? I just want the initrd file.
[19:31] <arnell> Jowi: Thanks, I'll look into it.
[19:31] <MrKennie> H0T_R0D: btw, I think you should change SYMLINK= to SYMLINK+=
[19:31] <joshuajtl> hey folks, does anyone else find firefox buggy on hardy?
[19:32] <BenB> joshuajtl: you'll have to define "buggy" much more precisely
[19:32] <MrKennie> H0T_R0D: and KERNEL= to KERNEL==
[19:32] <OsamaK> Ping, any answer, guys? :)
[19:32] <Mc_abyss> joshuajtl- I find firefox buggy on any OS
[19:32] <krauss> Rajec: bfanti: I've noticed as well
[19:32] <mixed12345> hey, how do you find out what flavor of ubuntu youre running??? :-)
[19:32] <krauss> Firefox is moving quite slow.
[19:33] <gaintsura> I disabled compiz and now gnome locks up, something happened with the driver. http://pastie.org/269063 anyone have any ideas?
[19:33] <H0T_R0D> well let me give that a whirl!
[19:33] <Jowi> mixed12345, lsb_release -a
[19:33] <mixed12345> Mc_abyss, it all depends on what feature youre talking about for firefox, if you disable the addons youll be just fine
[19:33] <joshuajtl> BenB: I find firefox freezes often
[19:34] <bfanti> anybody know if there's a 64-bit java browser plugin for firex?
[19:34] <michael__> i would say, it freezes _very_ often
[19:34] <Russian> guys my wireless card is not working in ubuntu x64 which I just installed, the hardware is from Atheros
[19:34] <joshuajtl> is there any good alternative to firefox on gnome?
[19:34] <BenB> joshuajtl: when you do what? it freezes more often than which other firefox?
[19:34] <joshuajtl> opera? perhaps?
[19:34] <Rajec> bfanti, krauss: I fell that in ubuntu is FASTER thatn in windows but maybe because my windows installation is several months old and ubuntu is new
[19:34] <MLoot> joshuajtl: Why would you need something besides firefox?  Memory/speed?
[19:34] <Mc_abyss> mixed12345 - well theres always that but then ive always preferred  Opera doesnt freeze as often
[19:34] <joshuajtl> BenB: more often then on kubuntu
[19:34] <mixed12345> Jowi, ok so I have hardy b ut how doI find out if I have edubuntu, xubuntu, or just plain ubuntu?
[19:34] <cheeky> correct me if iam wrong .. in terminal when i do  a "ls" i see my examples.. my documents and wat not..now if i type "cd /Examples"... says no files or directory ..so ..when i type.. " cd Examples"..i go there.. ..so how come when i do  "cd /" i go to root and see my system files..and i have to "cd /folder (etc)" ..to navigate there..like using the / istead of just typing the filename w/o the /
[19:34] <BenB> joshuajtl: you can install the original firefox from mozilla.com
[19:34] <joshuajtl> MLoot: firefox is unstable for me
[19:34] <gonzaloaf> hi, may laptop freezes sometimes after the screensaver is enabled it doesnt come back, it is freezed now but I'm connected via ssh, how can I find out the reason of the problem_
[19:34] <gonzaloaf> ?
[19:35] <gabry> ciao
[19:35] <gabry> !list
[19:35] <BenB> joshuajtl: hm... which version of kubuntu and ubuntu (and firefox) are you using?
[19:35] <krauss> Rajec: Well besides the speed, i've experienced unexpected shutdowns of Firefox as well, so maybe my judgement is clouded
[19:35] <OsamaK> Is there a way to remove folder's cache? I mean something like "file.txt~"
[19:35] <MLoot> joshuajtl: What versions ?
[19:35] <c0mp13371331337> How would I go about reinstalling all the applications that come with Ubuntu out of the box, without completely wiping my hard drive?
[19:35] <joshuajtl> BenB: hardy on both (recently came back to ubuntu)
[19:35] <joshuajtl> MLoot: latest
[19:36] <Russian> anyone can help me install wireless driver for the laptop?
[19:36] <c0mp13371331337> sudo apt-get install --reinstall ubuntu-desktop only reinstalls the one virtual package.
[19:36] <BenB> joshuajtl: that's indeed strange. can you file a bug report?
[19:36] <joshuajtl> yes next time it happens
[19:37] <BenB> joshuajtl: it would help a lot to describe the circumstances which lead to the freezes (e.g. a particular action you do often right before that)
[19:37] <MLoot> joshuajtl: you've reinstalled?  Does it often crash?  Do you have a lot of plugins?
[19:37] <Russian> ?wireles
[19:37] <Russian> !WIRELESS
[19:37] <Jowi> mixed12345, I haven't run any of those versions so I don't know.
[19:37] <alphabeta> c0mp13371331337: why do you want to do that? if you don't mind me asking
[19:37] <rascal999> does sourceforge have a repository?
[19:37] <BenB> joshuajtl: also, include anything that may differ between the two installation and which may be relevant
[19:37] <mixed12345> jowi, thanks for the input
[19:37] <cheeky> can anyone answer my question?
[19:37] <MLoot> cheeky: repeat the quetion for me... :)
[19:38] <Area_51> !adobe flash
[19:38] <OsamaK> Can someone answer mine too :P
[19:38] <cheeky> MLoot: could i PM you its kinda long lol
[19:38] <BenB> joshuajtl: if you have extensions or plugins installed, first step (before you file a bug) would be to disable them both. if that fixes it, enable them one at a time to find out which causes it.
[19:38] <cheeky> MLoot: if that cool
[19:38] <MLoot> cheeky: go4it
[19:38] <c0mp13371331337> alphabeta: Just getting some weirdness.  Compiz all of a sudden decided to take over my window decorator.  I had a nice metacity window decoration that worked great with compiz, but now compiz overtakes the decorations.  Plus my fonts are HUGE and not the correct font value, despite what my display properties say.  Couple of other weird things too.
[19:39] <joshuajtl> BenB: good idea, I'll disable the One Sidebar thing
[19:39] <BenB> joshuajtl: extensions and plugins are usually the reason why firefox misbehaves. that includes adobe flash.
[19:39] <joshuajtl> oh its not installed
[19:40] <BenB> joshuajtl: URL about:plugins , and menu Tools Addons
[19:40] <BenB> how do I build initrd (to use my own kernel) *without* creating and installing deb packages? I just want the initrd file.
[19:40] <ro_> how do i mount a broken ubuntu install with a live cd of xubuntu
[19:40] <ro_> ?
[19:40] <joshuajtl> gonna try epiphany, and opera
[19:41] <ro_> its on a internal hardrive
[19:41] <gonzaloaf> hi, after a time of inactiviry, the screensaver turns on... then when I move the mouse my laptop freezes and never come back. It is freezed now, but I'm connected from my desktop via ssh, can you help me to find out the reason problem?
[19:41] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: compiz _always_ takes over your window decorations, as it is your window manager. However, it should be using the 'gtk-window-decorator' by default, which uses metacity's theme. It sounds like it has switched to the 'emerald' decorator
[19:41] <Jowi> cheeky, the single forward slash always mean the root of the disk. However, the forward slash also separates directories. So "cd /" takes you to the root of the disk and "cd /etc" takes you to the first folder named "etc" directly under the root directory. if you begin a cd with / it will always do that.
[19:41] <psp> Does anybody know why with ati drivers 3d things kinda blinks
[19:41] <MrKennie> joshuajtl: there's Midori too :) pretty basic but it uses webkit
[19:42] <Russian> Restricted drivers for atheros doesnt work, can anyone help me please?
[19:42] <c0mp13371331337> alphabeta: I already uninstalled Emerald because I was under that impression as well.  Rebooted about 10 times since, but no change.
[19:43] <Russian> alphabeta I can't get wireless working
[19:43] <owlchild> irc.osx86.hu
[19:43] <c0mp13371331337> alphabeta: Plus Emerald isn't even running.  However, gtk-window-decorator is.
[19:43] <carandraug> psp_: yes. Tried to disable compiz?
[19:43] <psp_> Disabling now....
[19:43] <RoadHazard> metacity --replace
[19:43] <alphabeta> Russian: what adapter do you use?
[19:43] <carandraug> psp_: metacity --replace
[19:44] <OsamaK> Is there a way to remove folder's cache? I mean something like "file.txt~"
[19:44] <Nece228> does there will be difference if i install drivers through restricted manager or envyng
[19:44] <Russian> alphabeta atheros
[19:44] <c0mp13371331337> alphabeta: And when I kill compiz with metacity --replace, I get my lcars decorations back, but the fonts are still HUGE.
[19:44] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: please take a screenshot and upload it to http://picpaste.com (also, I'm not alphabeta)
[19:44] <psp_> carandraug: thank you.
[19:45] <alphabeta> Russian: what does dmesg say? (don't paste it in the channel)
[19:45] <Nece228> does there will be difference if i install my ati drivers through restricted manager or envyng
[19:45] <carandraug> psp_: once you're done with the 3D stuff, and you want compiz back, run "compiz --replace"
[19:45] <rferreira_> cd /
[19:45] <rferreira_> ops
[19:45] <Russian> alphabeta what is dmesg?
[19:45] <psp_> Another noob queston when I installed wine it doesn't not appared to menu. How do I get it there?
[19:46] <psp_> I know that I can run it from console
[19:46] <alphabeta> Nece228: envy ones are bleeding-edge, with all the pros and cons that come with that
[19:46] <carandraug> psp_: System > Preferences > Main menu It should have a line for himself, near Add/remove
[19:46] <Rajec> krauss: in Windows ?
[19:46] <alphabeta> Russian: it's a command line tool, good for debugging hardware problems
[19:47] <Orchid`> i have an audio problem with ahrdy heron, i need it fixed. will someone please help me figure out how? i get the drumming in the begining for hardy heron, but afte ri log in i get no audio at all. please HALP!
[19:47] <psp_> Thank you again xd
[19:47] <Orchid`> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5756482#post5756482
[19:47] <BenB> can someone help me with building an initrd, please?
[19:47] <carandraug> psp_: also, when getting compiz back, if you do it in a terminal, you can't close the terminal window. Use Alt+F2 to get a "run application" window and enter the command there
[19:47] <krauss> Rajec: Ubuntu
[19:47] <Russian> alphabeta, so I should reboot to ubuntu, and type dmesg in console then copy paste it here?
[19:47] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: http://picpaste.com/Screenshot_2.png
[19:47] <BenB> even using make-kpkg fails, with "arch/xen/ does not exist" - well, that's correct (I use the latest Linus kernel).
[19:48] <Nece228> alphabeta, thanks, how aobut restricted manager?
[19:48] <BenB> !initrd
[19:48] <Rajec> krauss: strange
[19:48] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: ah, your gnome configuration system is broken
[19:48] <Rajec> Guys what are your experience of Firefox in windows vs ubuntu ??
[19:49] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Ah, fantastic.  How to I un-break it? ;-)
[19:49] <Russian> alphabeta brb
[19:49] <BenB> Rajec: windows is faster.
[19:49] <kdnewton> @Rajec : Locating "preferences" is in "edit/preferences" in Ubuntu vs "tools/preferences" in Windows
[19:49] <Nece228> alphabeta, if i install my ati drivers through envyng they will work faster than if i install drivers through restricted manager?
[19:49] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: check your process list for 'gnome-settings-daemon' and 'gconfd-2', are either of those missing?
[19:51] <BenB> guys, it can't be so f*cking hard to compile and use the latest Linus kernel. nobody can tell me how to create the initrd?
[19:51] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Nope, both appear in the system monitor.
[19:51] <Nece228> alphabeta: ???
[19:51] <sploozer> anyone here using a ReadyNAS 1100 in their linux environment?
[19:52] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: you don't have xserver-xgl installed, do you?
[19:52] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Nope, not installed.

[19:54] <ravendark> Guest80062: what are you trying to install?

[20:11] <Prose> hi, in 8.04, does network manager, by default, support WPA2 Enterprise encryption ?
[20:11] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: I don't know why, but your gconfd is definitely malfunctioning, try renaming ~/.gconfd to ~/.gconfd.save, and if that doesn't work, you could try it with ~/.gconf too (where your actual configuration is stored)
[20:11] <fr4nk-k> nicolasaumond: what's your question?
[20:11] <kappabuntu> is there a how to on making taskbar icon shortcuts for ubuntu?
[20:12] <nicolasaumond> chage resolution and refresh rate??
[20:12] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: should I log out after that?  Or reboot?
[20:12] <nicolasaumond> can-t do it
[20:12] <Jowi> StevenX, /usr/share/applications/ there are some .desktop files in there that you can set the installed programs icons for etc
[20:12] <Russian> anyone here can help me with wireless problem, using Atheros, dmesg can be found here --> http://paste.ubuntu.com/44994/
[20:12] <StevenX> Jowi: thanks!
[20:12] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: logging off should be enough
[20:12] <Jowi> StevenX, your other option is to change it in the Icon theme you are using but it takes more work
[20:12] <kappabuntu> Jowi: that's where it's hiding the program icons? grrrr
[20:12] <fr4nk-k> nicolasaumond: It's in System > Settings
[20:12] <Jowi> kappabuntu, no, only which icon to use
[20:12] <macvr> i was suggested to do this earlier>>> find / -xdev -exec chmod /mnt/linux/'{}' --reference '{}' ;  <<<< but it gives this error -----find: missing argument to `-exec'
[20:12] <nicolasaumond> need guidance on using xorg.
[20:13] <Prose> in 8.04, does network manager, by default, support WPA2 Enterprise encryption ?

[20:13] <kappabuntu> I was looking inside usr/lib and usr/share -/virtualbox for the icon
[20:13] <StevenX> Jowi: The 2nd option, do you mean installing an icon theme?
[20:13] <fr4nk-k> nicolasaumond: Oh, sorry, I know can only do it with a GUI. :(
[20:14] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: Hello there, how may we help you?
[20:14] <nicolasaumond> it only offer 800 x 600....

[20:14] <paraaano> I checked forums, but no solution.
[20:15] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Well, renaming .gconfd/ didn't do it, I'll try .gconf
[20:15] <Snubbi> ive just get my wifi up on my labtop so im just so happy
[20:15] <Jowi> StevenX, each icon theme has it's own links for program icons. for example /usr/share/icons/gnome/48x48/apps has named icons that you can change. but you need to do that in each size directory which is not very hard to do but takes time and is annoying.
[20:15] <StevenX> Jowi: I found the firefox in /usr/share/applications, I right-clicked and then properties, but I'm not sure how to change the icon it uses.
[20:15] <paraaano> gq_gunhed; any idea?
[20:15] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: sorry - no clue, maybe someone else here can help
[20:16] <paraaano> :(
[20:16] <Jowi> StevenX, it's a text file. you need to edit it, look for the icon name and change it and save it.
[20:16] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Well, my desktop background is back to Hardy default.  Fonts are still the same though.  As is the Window Decoration.  Let me see if I can change the fonts at all.
[20:16] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: maybe a firewall issue? Or what do you think?
[20:16] <StevenX> Jowi: thanks, will look into it.
[20:17] <kappabuntu> how do I go about learning to find the proper command to use for an icon launcher?
[20:17] <paraaano> gq_gunhed. I haven't got any idea. just hours ago everything was fine.
[20:17] <paraaano> suddenly it crashed.
[20:18] <kappabuntu> seeing as virtualbox doesn't work unlike firefox for firefox
[20:18] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: hmm, strange. standard question: "what did you do before you did nothing?" ;-)
[20:18] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: crashed, what kind of?
[20:18] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: you can try making a new account, that would at least tell you whether it's a system or user configuration issue
[20:18] <Crshman> hi all, how do i look at a users account options from the CLI? (like home directory and current groups)
[20:18] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Nope, application fonts still the same.
[20:18] <paraaano> well, nothing. (really nothing.) I was out..
[20:19] <nicolasaumond> xorg expert?
[20:19] <paraaano> when I was back, then no connection to live network
[20:19] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Well, I had another account for guests that never gets logged into.  I checked there and it was the same large font issue.
[20:19] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Also opened an application as root and saw the same thing.
[20:19] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: hmm :-( any error messages in any of your logs?
[20:20] <paraaano> sorry that I'm really newbie at linux.
[20:20] <DIFH-iceroot> what version of postgresql is ubuntu 6.06 using? is it postgresql 7.3?
[20:20] <paraaano> how can I check logs?
[20:20] <ForgeAus> grrr... someones gotta do something about the dependancy issue for KDE...
[20:20] <valbuntu> Hi, got an apt package removal related question.. synaptic shows linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22-14-generic as 'completely removable', but applying this fails with error "E: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22-14-generic: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1" Where could i find more info on how to remove this entree from apt (as the package in question is not installed anymore) ?
[20:20] <ForgeAus> lately too many packages want gnome dependancies that are unnecessary for a kubuntu user
[20:20] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: "sudo tail -f /var/log/messages" or "sudo tail -f /var/log/daemon.log"
[20:21] <paraaano> let me check gq_gunhed
[20:21] <ForgeAus> ie apturl wants something like gtk-khtml... I would have thought having Konqueror more than fulfills that req
[20:21] <StevenX> Jowi: Let's say I have a file called browser_icon.png on my desktop, and that I've opened up the desktop configuration file for firefox in /usr/share/applications, what now?
[20:21] <gq_gunhed> paraaano: where: tail -f shows your log files as it is written (ongoing), and /var/log/[fielname] is where your logs are
[20:22] <kappabuntu> what is the terminal command to launch virtualbox?
[20:22] <kappabuntu> I'll start there..
[20:22] <fused_> What is the easiest, most sufficient way, to get rid of icons on the menu in Gnome that aren't suppose to be there?
[20:22] <macvr> hi, guys....i was having a GDM error:<server authorization directory (deamon/servauthdir) is set to   /var/lib/gdm but this does not exist. Please correct gdm configuration and restart gdm                             <ok>>
[20:22] <macvr> i tired doin this<sudo -i    mkdir /mnt/linux    mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/linux   find /mnt/linux -type d -exec chmod 755 '{}' \;   find /mnt/linux -type f -exec chmod 644 '{}' \;   umount /mnt/linux  exit> but now my system gets Stuck at BusyBoX... how do i get past this?
[20:22] <macvr> i was asked to do this>>>>find / -xdev -exec chmod /mnt/linux/'{}' --reference '{}' ;<<<< but i get this error>>> find: missing argument to `-exec'
[20:22] <Jowi> StevenX, type in the full path to the icon you wish to use. Example: Icon=/home/StevenX/Desktop/browser_icon.png
[20:22] <ForgeAus> and AWN (avant window navigator) is depdnant on lots of gnome packages too yet Avant itself is supposedly Desktop-Agnostic! (it plays nice with KDE afaik...)
[20:23] <StevenX> Jowi: Thanks! Awesome.
[20:23] <macvr> hi unop
[20:23] <unop> hey macvr - how's it going?
[20:23] <psor> hi i am want use game AssaultCube i download game and use command assaultcube,sh but system said - command not found
[20:23] <macvr> i was tried to do this>>>>find / -xdev -exec chmod /mnt/linux/'{}' --reference '{}' ;<<<< but i get this error>>> find: missing argument to `-exec'
[20:23] <ForgeAus> so whats the problem, that developers just don't know there's KDE out there?
[20:24] <unop> macvr, try escaping the last ; .. make it \;
[20:24] <xbxb> How can I guarantee that ALL files in /tmp are deleted when Ubuntu shuts down? Or is this done automatically?
[20:24] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: And yes, same problem with a brand-spanky-new account.
[20:24] <balrog> jaunty jackalope?  canonical knows that a jackalope is an imaginary animal, right?
[20:24] <mds58> installing a linux driver can someone give me the 101 for the process plz
[20:25] <macvr> i didnt understand tht??could u pls give full command? so that i dont mess up?
[20:25] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Sooooo, system-wide, more than likely.
[20:25] <unop> xbxb, i believe they are cleared on boot
[20:25] <unop> macvr, find / -xdev -exec chmod /mnt/linux/'{}' --reference '{}' \;
[20:25] <macvr> ok, thanx
[20:26] <Jowi> StevenX, after the file is saved you might need to log off and log on again to see the change (firefox icon should now have changed in the gnome menues). if it isn't showing any icon you have a typo in the .desktop file.
[20:26] <xbxb> unop: I'm asking because I'm now using a separate partition for /tmp (fstab already changed, will take effect on reboot), but I want to delete all files in the "old" /tmp directory before that.
[20:26] <HoaXxX> hi, wht is the best program for virtualization? vm make my pc slow
[20:26] <kappabuntu> oh icons were in in /pixmaps -_- ...
[20:27] <StevenX> Jowi: got it. Thanks. Can I create these .desktop files if I don't see one for a program I want?
[20:27] <unop> xbxb, you'll need to delete them .. preferably after reboot - or in single-user mode (runlevel 1)
[20:27] <xbxb> unop: how do I get into runlevel 1 after reboot?
[20:27] <HoaXxX> ?
[20:27] <steven__> when i installed ubuntu
[20:28] <steven__> the laptop has a weird chipset
[20:28] <unop> xbxb, choose recovery mode from the grub screen  ... or you can type this now.  sudo telinit 1  (after closing your programs down)
[20:28] <steven__> and won't allow me to pick larger resolutions
[20:28] <steven__> i'm using xubuntu hardy heron
[20:28] <xbxb> unop: many thanks
[20:28] <HoaXxX> anyone? best program for virtaulization plz
[20:28] <steven__> 've tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[20:28] <unop> xbxb, to return to runlevel 2 after that.  sudo telinit 2
[20:28] <steven__> it doesn't allow me to choose monitor size and all
[20:28] <kappabuntu> what is the terminal command to open virtualbox?
[20:28] <xbxb> unop: OK
[20:28] <steven__> or video drivers
[20:28] <IM0> hi @ all
[20:29] <steven__> ive installed the driver for the video card
[20:29] <IM0> from germany
[20:29] <IM0> ;)
[20:29] <unop> xbxb, though, you'll need to mount /tmp first.  sudo mount  -a
[20:29] <macvr> unop> it keeps giving errors>eg:>>>>>>chmod: cannot access `/mnt/linux//usr/share/gtk-doc/html/evolution-exchange/ximian-connnector-booking.html': No such file or directory<<<<<< this is going on! is this correct?
[20:29] <linduxed> any swedish colemak users here?
[20:29] <linduxed> (i know thats one hell of a minority :-P)
[20:29] <steven__> but the dsplaconfig-gtk only lets me choose up to 800x600
[20:29] <Jowi> StevenX, yes. you can. The only entries that are important is Exec=, Icon=, Name, GenericName and Type= and Categories= can be nice to have but are not needed.
[20:29] <xbxb> unop: but then I can't access the current /tmp directory anymore, whose content I want to delete?!
[20:30] <Jowi> StevenX, the three first i meant. the rest are optional.
[20:30] <StevenX> Jowi: Thank you very much. I have changed a couple of icons. i will Log off and log back in to see what has occured. Thanks1
[20:31] <dired> Hi! Can I manually enter the modes my Laptop LCD should run at? (in this case 1280x800@60hz)
[20:31] <unop> macvr, it appears to be correct, you have to remember that this command is looking at the permissions of the live CD's files and then trying to adjust the relevant files on the install .. and off course, the install isn't going to have all the same files
[20:31] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Still there?
[20:31] <unop> xbxb, you should carry out the procedure like this .. step into runlevel 1, clear /tmp, mount /tmp and then return to runlevel 2
[20:32] <Jowi> linduxed, wow a keyboard layout variant that i didnt know about :)
[20:32] <macvr> unop>> so...once it is done , reboot?
[20:32] <linduxed> Jowi: hahaha
[20:32] <unop> macvr, yep, and cross your fingers .
[20:32] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: yeah, but I can't think of a way to fix that. Make sure you're up to date and that apt-get dist-upgrade doesn't complain about anything
[20:32] <steven__> any ideas anyone?
[20:33] <xbxb> unop: Oh, got you now. One last question: do I have to set the permissions of the /tmp folder *before* mounting the new /tmp?
[20:33] <balz> I need help integrating CUPS printer sharing with SAMBA so that I can share printers with windoze computers.  Has anybody ever done this before?  I already have CUPS set up with one published printer
[20:33] <milostrife> #defocus
[20:33] <macvr> unop.... seems done, will reboot n inform
[20:34] <lee_> Hi, I followed the ueagle-atm guide on the Wiki, the modem syncs but I can't get a connection to the Internet
[20:34] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: Well, it tells me that xtightvncviewer can be updated, but I intentionally rolled that back when I first installed Hardy to be compatible with single-click VNC.
[20:34] <unop> xbxb, errm, no, you need to change permissions on the partition you want to mount at /tmp .. mount it somewhere temporarily and then .  sudo chmod +t /that/mount_point
[20:35] <xbxb> unop: thanks a lot for your patience. I'll try that.
[20:35] <paraaano> I can't connect msn(with any messenger(tried pidgin,gaim,kopete,amsn)) or any live network. (hotmail.com, live.com etc.) - anyone got any idea?
[20:35] <unop> xbxb, the next time you mount that device somewhere, the mount point (which in your case is /tmp) - will automatically assume the permissions of the partition.
[20:36] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: And now I can't even open Nautilus.  I get an error stating: "Eel:ERROR:(eel-preferences.c:673):update_auto_string_array: assertion failed: (callback_data != NULL) Aborted"
[20:36] <xbxb> unop: OK
[20:36] <Jowi> balz, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba#Sharing%20CUPS%20Printers
[20:36] <paraaano> I can't connect msn(with any messenger(tried pidgin,gaim,kopete,amsn)) or any live network. (hotmail.com, live.com etc.) - anyone got any idea?
[20:36] <RoadHazard> got a valid dns?
[20:36] <mds58> I am having trouble creating a virtual com port on a usb drive for a piece of hardware I need to use can someone plz help me

[20:37] <kc8pxy> I'm trying to i'm trying to turn a livecd iso into a liveusb, any tips on what not to do?
[20:38] <pete_> I can no longer mount usb drives through nautilus and yet I can still mount them using gnome-mount, so I can quite confused as to what to try/search for
[20:38] <pete_> am*
[20:38] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: that's probably just an effect of gconf being broken; it doesn't really help diagnose it :/
[20:38] <crdlb> c0mp13371331337: you could try asking in #gnome on irc.gnome.org
[20:39] <cheeky> iam sorry but iam learning about bash scripting from this source and dont understand wat i need type in and where .. here is the guide..i even feell like this is a retarded question .. but culd any one tell me :http://www.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/sha-bang.html
[20:39] <Jowi> lee_, the eagle is problematic. I used it in Mandrake 8.2 (that was a long time ago) and it hasn't improved much. I would recommend to see in the french channel (#ubuntu-fr) and/or buy a cheap DSL modem or even a DSL router. Less headache.
[20:40] <chao1> Hello, how do you setup the drivers for a dialup internal modem? I would like to setup dialup for someone
[20:40] <Jowi> lee_, the french used it quite a bit a few years back
[20:40] <lee_> Jowi: I havd tried a BT Voyager 105 too with whatever driver that was, that wouldnt even sync - it just failed... I can't find my old Speedtouch
[20:41] <Jowi> lee_, I meant a non-usb modem
[20:41]  * chao1 says does anyone know how to setup a dialup connection
[20:41] <toresn> i could use some help on connecting an external monitor to my thinkpad x61 ... anyone in here with experience?
[20:41] <steven__> gr
[20:41] <ohzie> Hey everyone! :)
[20:41] <lee_> Jowi: I have a router, but the point of this is to drop the connection entirely onto my server
[20:41] <cheeky> is bash scripting ... teaching me how to navigate and get to know my ubuntu system .. through ther terminal ?
[20:41] <chao1> :D
[20:42] <maniheer> cheeky: did u get it installed?
[20:42] <Jowi> lee_, if you have a router, how do you use the eagle usb modem?
[20:42] <chao1> <))
[20:42] <toresn> i have my loptop in a docking station, and i would like the laptop monitor to be disabled when connected to an external monitor
[20:42] <lee_> Jowi: when I *try* to get the modem working, I unplug the router
[20:42] <ohzie> I might have made a mistake, but I'm not sure. My / drive and the removable drive both have similar sizes, so I told gparted to format the / instead of the removable drive. The computer is still running, but when I scan it in gparted it has the layout that I told gparted to give it
[20:42] <ohzie> as far as I'm aware, all it changed was the 'disk label'
[20:42] <ohzie> because the drive is mounted, it couldn't format and partition it
[20:43] <ohzie> but what I don't know, is when I reboot, will my main drive be gone?
[20:43] <RoadHazard> shouldnt
[20:43] <balz> Does somebody have a default smb.conf file they could pastebin for me?  I will gladly give up a virtual dollar
[20:43] <ceed^> Hi, I need to shrink my Vista partition and add the space to one of my Ubunutu partitions. On Vista I have Acronis, but I am afraid it will mess up grub. What's the best way to do this? Boot from the live CD and do it from there?
[20:43] <chamunks> When I install ubuntu or variant on a pc for my home sometimes the computer name works in the lan and sometimes not how can i set it so that it allways works.
[20:43] <unop> cheeky, bash scripting is putting a sequence of commands together to accomplish a job .. it doesn't necessarily teach you about ubuntu.
[20:43] <Jowi> lee_, if you have a router you cannot use a usb modem together. non-usb-modem <-> router <-> computer
[20:43] <barbarella> balz:/usr/share/doc/samba-doc/examples
[20:43] <lee_> Jowi: I know, I want to eliminate the need for the router.
[20:44] <Jowi> lee_, ah. you found a bad replacement for it :)
[20:44] <chamunks> What can i change post install so that i can go to http:// or smb://  Computername  and not <IP_ADDRESS> or whatever.
[20:44] <balz> barbarella:  i'm using mythbuntu and it doesn't come with a lot of bells and whistles... =(
[20:44] <lee_> Jowi: Unless I can find some good (PCI?) ADSL modem that will work under Ubuntu
[20:44] <barbarella> can you install samba-doc?
[20:44] <c0mp13371331337> crdlb: I'm checking with them now.  Thanks for all your patience and help!
[20:44] <balz> barbella:  sure. what is it exactly?
[20:45] <barbarella> documentation
[20:45] <Jowi> lee_, I recommend a stand alone DSL modem. Ethernet connected. You set up the connection settings in the modem, set your computer up for DHCP and  and off you go.
[20:45] <livindaylight> hi, i have serious issues with X
[20:46] <lee_> Jowi: Isn't that really what the router does :/

[20:46] <tomfratelli> He guys, can you help me?

[20:46] <chao1> :-/I need to setup a dial up modem that is internal. Help - anyone. I know to use sudo pppconfig but I need to know how to setup the drivers and where do I get them. Are they part of the kernel or do I need to download them?
[20:46] <livindaylight> I've restored xorg.conf back up and can't get anything back to how it was
[20:47] <RoadHazard> the best luck is a conexant internal modem and the dellbuntu driver

[20:56] <tanner13> excellent thank you all VERY VERY much
[20:56] <pedro-orange> tanner13: man wget :)
[20:56] <Prose> unop: well, which one is the one that does the same thing as when you type commands in the terminal ?
[20:57] <michael__> could anyone tell me of a program that can take individual pdfs and stitch them together?
[20:57] <unop> Prose, both do
[20:57] <Jowi> tanner13, wget -c (can continue interrupted downloads)
[20:57] <Phantomas> hello i have this webcam Bus 003 Device 004: ID 0c45:6005 Microdia Sweex Mini Webcam as lsusb shows but i cant make it work with camorama and cheese
[20:57] <chao1> pedro, tanner13, make sure you put wget -c <url> so that if the connection is lost wget will continue from the last point.
[20:57] <P4n[t]3r> ^^
[20:57] <Phantomas> can i have your help please
[20:57] <chao1> tanner13, what was the extention on the file again
[20:58] <unop> Prose, use bash if your script uses bashisms .. or if you are following a bash guide for .e.g.   use sh if you want your script to run on any unix
[20:58] <pedro-orange> chao1: tanner13 has left the room
[20:58] <Prose> unop: so something like    #!/bin/bash   on the first line and               avant-window-navigator                on the second line should make the script boot said program at startup (if chmoded 777 and used update-rc.d defaults on it)
[20:58] <chao1> oh, oh well
[20:58] <unop> Prose, but remember that sh does not understand bashisms
[20:58] <macvr> unop...mounted the linux partiton
[20:59] <unop> Prose, errm, it would .. though for this purpose sh is lighter and faster ..  also  use exec there.  i.e.   exec avant-window-navigator
[20:59] <unop> macvr, ok, where have you mounted it?
[20:59] <erUSUL> Prose: for something like awn you should use System>Preferences>Session
[20:59] <Jowi> !webcam | Phantomas (have you had a look here?)
[21:00] <Prose> erUSUL: I added awn in there, but it still doesn't start
[21:00] <ech0s7> whay is the english name of his: http://tinyurl.com/58t887 (i'm italian) ?
[21:00] <macvr> unop> /mnt/linux         [i used this command>>>mount /dev/sda5 /mnt/linux]
[21:01] <erUSUL> Prose: probelm is 1) there is no warantee the awn ill be started before the X windows 2) even if you make it run before X windows it will boot before any user is loged 3) it will be runt as root
[21:02] <ech0s7> whay is the english name of his: http://tinyurl.com/58t887 (i'm italian) ?
[21:02] <jobless> I enabled remember running applications while logging out option in sessions on ubuntu 8.04. Even when I uncheck that option now, the session history is saved. Is there a file I can delete to remove the session history?
[21:02] <guntbert> !ot | ech0s7
[21:02] <Prose> erUSUL: I agree but it sucks having to manually open it each time, I am used to it just being there
[21:02] <Andy80> I've a strange problem with my Nvidia Geforce 8600 Gt: I've installed Ubuntu 8.04.1, I've installed restricted drivers ecc.... but every time I reboot and I arrive to GDM login, the screen becomes BLACK :( I hear the ubuntu drums and all is black. I've to switch to a console usicn CTRL+ALT+F2 and come back to F7 lot of times before GDM login appears... how can I fix this?
[21:03] <unop> macvr, ok. follow this here.  http://pastebin.com/d79a7f6b1
[21:03] <erUSUL> Prose: use ~/.xsession for that « echo "exec avant-window-navigator" >> ~/.xsession »
[21:03] <RoadHazard> livindaylight: are you on an nvidia card?
[21:03] <chamunks>  Apparently I need to make my ubuntu "send host-name" so that my router can pick up the computer name where would i find this in 8.04
[21:04] <JeroenD> hello
[21:04] <JeroenD> can someone help me with a distorted sound in HH
[21:04] <chamunks> I find unless I install via network install off the ubuntu servers my computers dont properly send hostname to the router.
[21:04] <JeroenD> i've uninstalled Pulse-audio
[21:04] <Prose> erUSUL: I should make a script containing on one line                 echo "exec avant-window-navigator" >> ~/.xsession
[21:04] <macvr> all those commands to be done from root #  ?
[21:04] <erUSUL> Prose: or maybe just « echo "avant-window-navigator" >> ~/.xsession » can not say for sure if the exec is needed
[21:05] <unop> chamunks, see /etc/dhcp/dhclient.conf   # and look out for send host-name
[21:05] <JeroenD> and my sound does shift in pitch in ogg files
[21:05] <unop> macvr, yes
[21:05] <Jowi> Prose, execute awn first. example: "avant-window-navigator &" + new line + "exec compiz --indirect-rendering --strict-binding dbus"
[21:05] <erUSUL> Prose: no; just have to create a file named .xsession on you home with avant-window-navigator on it
[21:06] <jobless> Once again .. I enabled remember running applications while logging out option in sessions on ubuntu 8.04. Even when I uncheck that option now, the session history is saved. Is there a file I can delete to remove the session history?
[21:06] <unop> Jowi, that almost looks like javascript :)
[21:06] <JeroenD> hello and good evening
[21:07] <chamunks> unop, thanks ill look into this, is there a way i can get it to resend this without reboot like maybe running 'dhclient'?
[21:07] <Jowi> unop, unintentional :)
[21:07] <unop> chamunks, yea.  sudo dhclient eth0
[21:07] <chamunks> unop, awesome thanks
[21:08] <nikitis> Problem:  My GNOME Settings daemon isn't starting any longer.  And it happened after I installed avant-window-navigator.  I have no clue what is wrong or how to fix it.  Yes I did google it with no luck.

[21:20] <XiMeNSiOnS> yeah but which?
[21:20] <zubumufu> Is there perhaps another room with less people where I can talk to somebody about my options for buying an Ubuntu machine? I'm so indecisive.
[21:20] <unop> nikitis, it's possible .. the panel might have crashed but is still running.
[21:21] <unop> nikitis,   killall gnome-panel && gnome-panel &

[21:21] <balz> What is Read Prediction in SAMBA and what does it do?  Google has no answers...
[21:22] <nikitis> unop, i have bars, it restarted automatically
[21:22] <Prose> in other words, downloading ubuntu 8.04 one day after stable release and today, is there a difference ?
[21:22] <uateve1> do i need to do anything for UPnP to work in ubuntu?
[21:22] <nikitis> unop, that helped with the small problem.  But I dunno about the big one, when I boot
[21:22] <tabakhase> Is there a way to get the Kernel Version before "linux-image-2.6.15-26-386"? Still 2.6.15-* but a bugfix before?

[21:30] <synic> is software audio mixing supposed to work with pulseaudio and ubuntu 8.04?

[21:30] <synic> I cannot play music and watch a youtube video at the same time
[21:31] <Alpha232> tesseracter: thats because it's built on Scan Codes
[21:31] <John0Neil> XiMeNSiOnS, you may try to run ubuntu live cd, then run Gparted, select your partition and "Check and repair"
[21:31] <akravets> hello

[21:31] <akravets> I am trying to play wav file in Ubuntu and I get aplay: test_wavefile:731: can't play not PCM-coded WAVE-files
[21:31] <Alpha232> unop: well technically it would never page it as 12 other modules are using it even if they are not using it
[21:31] <akravets> using aplay
[21:31] <fogelek> i cannot find iptables file in /etc - who knows where it is?
[21:32] <akravets> tried Amarok, can't play either
[21:32] <John0Neil> XiMeNSiOnS, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=667955
[21:32] <tesseracter> Alpha232, so is this something that i should write up as a bug report, or is this something that ubuntu wouldnt try to fix?
[21:32] <unop> Alpha232, that's a self-contradictory statement :)
[21:32] <XiMeNSiOnS> why would I do tha
[21:32] <XiMeNSiOnS> that
[21:32] <XiMeNSiOnS> I cant even run the live cd
[21:32] <XiMeNSiOnS> I run it then select any option
[21:33] <XiMeNSiOnS> then ubuntu logo goes and get that error
[21:33] <erUSUL> Fogelek: there is no default iptables file in there afaik
[21:33] <MXIIA> How can I change the main menu icon, by (Applications Places System) without changing the theme???
[21:33] <Alpha232> tesseracter: well first off...
[21:33] <balrog> anybody know a program that can convert from dv to avi, wmv or mpeg-1 format?
[21:33] <macv1> unop>it worked...now i'm  loged in... but i get this error when i launch apps!!!>>> failed to launch child process"..."(permission denied)<<< for most of the apps i get this error , not even able to launch firefox
[21:33] <Alpha232> tesseracter: is this from the console or via SSH
[21:33] <erUSUL> balrog: ffmpeg
[21:33] <hitman1985> erUSUL, so if i got that info straight i just got to add a line in the fstab file what says /dev/sda5   swap  		swap  	pri=42  	0 	0 ?
[21:33] <bobertdos> akravets: I'm going to venture a guess and say that the file is probably encoded with some restricted codec, probably Microsoft-based, where you will probably need w32codecs from medibuntu.
[21:34] <giggsey> I'm tyring to boot the 64 bit livecd, and it seems to be stuck on "Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0"
[21:34] <Alpha232> unop: not really,  it is marked at used
[21:34] <Alpha232> unop: but is never utilized
[21:34] <erUSUL> hitman1985: well the pri value (priority) is generally not needed
[21:34] <unop> macv1, hmm.  how are you launching apps, the menu?
[21:34] <balrog> erUSUL: seriously?
[21:34] <tesseracter> Alpha232, console and ssh.

[21:35] <macv1> i'v tried menu/ panel... pidgin i was able to launch , but opened main window from the panel
[21:35] <erUSUL> hitman1985: instead of uuid you can use directly the dev file but is good pactice to use the uuid
[21:35] <Alpha232> tesseracter: did you specify your keyboard layout during setup
[21:35] <hitman1985> erUSUL, thats what i got in the file at the moment
[21:35] <erUSUL> hitman1985: run "sudo blkid" to fin out
[21:35] <tesseracter> Alpha232, yup, i did. pressing both shift keys switches the layout
[21:35] <unop> Alpha232,  sudo perl -i.bak -pe '$_="alias net-pf-10 off" if /alias net-pf-10/' /etc/modprobe.d/aliases
[21:35] <erUSUL> hitman1985: maybe you repartitoned the drive and uuids changed

[21:36] <unop> nikitis, nice
[21:36] <strategy> firefox is running ridiculously slow for me,  as are some other apps.. would restarting X and starting all the apps again fix this?
[21:36] <unop> Alpha232, use any tool you like
[21:36] <hitman1985> erUSUL, wow was the wrong paste :( this is what blkid says : /dev/sda1: UUID="bf38d058-b861-47e4-8e62-20b9192ddbae" TYPE="ext3"

[21:37] <nikitis> unop, You don't happen to know how to speed up the animation effect for AWN do you?
[21:37] <strategy> guntbert, ok, just wondering if this is common(happens to me every few days) or if that was a common way to fix it
[21:37] <limitedwisdom> it just says "httpd not running no pid"
[21:37] <unop> Alpha232,  going against the unix philosophy - you might as well run windows eh? :)
[21:37] <erUSUL> hitman1985: as you can see uuids do not match change 8fa291a7-7d62-4c19-b0b0-8658b7fd566d for 9bc73ced-b8e9-4b1a-a3ae-1751919fa1da on fstab save and "sudo swapon -a"
[21:37] <unop> nikitis, errm no, i don't like AWN

[21:40] <guntbert> strategy: have you enabled 'proposed'?
[21:40] <unop> Alpha232,  the unix philosophy is essentially "root is not a user"
[21:40] <strategy> guntbert, i have no idea what that is, so probably not :P
[21:40] <unop> Alpha232, on windows "administrator is the only user"  :)

[22:03] <soundray> link606: wait 15 minutes or so for new people to log on, then ask again.
[22:03] <link606> okay thank you
[22:03] <prog077> iwill try it and iwill report you   ok?
[22:03] <genius> erUSUL: so they are talking about "fake" disk speed? so it cannot be even compared to internal drive...
[22:03] <erUSUL> genius: o.0 only 4MB of cached reads? cached reads should be near max of the bus
[22:03] <keri>   I have a Netgear  Rangemax  WPN111  USB 2.0  Adapter  it seems it will work in Ubuntu,  but  I am not entirely sure what I am meant to be doing,  I found this link:   http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/netgear-wpn111-wireless-setup-ubuntu-8.4-651429/
[22:04] <macvr> soundray> that command worked, unop tweaked it a bit/ u were right unop knows a lot

[22:04] <gpled> unop: how do you change your path?
[22:04] <unop> macvr, well i've been using unix for quite sometime now .. i do program occasionally .. i guess it's just experience that helps me around.
[22:04] <gpled> unop: where does the script live?
[22:04] <genius> erUSUL: that's why i am worried
[22:04] <unop> gpled, are you zeeeee ?
[22:04] <daxroc> Any one know a solution to the nvidia 8 series mobile brightness ?

[22:05] <poopuser> hi.can anyone explain me how can i copy marked and paste marked text in 'nano'?
[22:05] <sh_> anyone knows a solution with sound driver on gateway ns200x?
[22:05] <SebNaitsabes> !sound
[22:06] <unop> gpled,  PATH can be adjusted in one of /etc/profile or ~/.profile  .. additionally, your shell's rc files can be used too .. like /etc/bash.bashrc or ~/.bashrc
[22:06] <Dmole> anyone know how to use the *new* mount command?
[22:06] <d0wn> Could someone help me out with my dhcpd.conf? When I try to restart my dhcp server, i get told that stopping the server failed, and starting it failed too. http://pastebin.com/d2882707e
[22:06] <unop> gpled, script can be anywhere you like i suppose

[22:07] <macvr> soundray>>   find / -xdev -exec chmod /mnt/linux/'{}' --reference '{}' /;     << unop pls check this was actually the first version that i had saved
[22:07] <genius> erUSUL: sorry the last information is my mistake. it gives 4GB cached. 25 MB buffered, and 100MB buffered on internal drive.
[22:07] <audihertz> Hey folks.  I have an issue with getting an extra drive to map, but it's a RAID5 which I have no experience in setting up.  Got it formatted and listed in fstab, but it won't mount correctly.  Ideas?
[22:07] <yoda_of_dagobah> have just install ubuntu first time on separate disk, unfortunatelly boot loader shows wXP as one of non-Linux OS but I can start Windows from
[22:07] <hvgotcodes> hey i have a new latitude e6400 -- there is a 107mb fat16 partition, and a 2.1gb ntfs partition
[22:07] <hvgotcodes> does anyone know what they contain
[22:07] <Dmole> daxroc: the problem is that fmask is not supported

[22:07] <djdano> Hey all, Im used to ubuntu and I just changed to xubuntu.  Im unable to figure out how to clone my display so I can use my TV as a monitor, anyone able to help me
[22:07] <MXIIA_> SPAMM
[22:07] <hvgotcodes> I am asking because I want to know if i can wipe them when installing ubunut
[22:07] <Dmole> daxroc: and it was in 6.xx
[22:07] <unop> macvr, soundray  find / -xdev -exec chmod /mnt/linux/'{}' --reference '{}' \;   ## additionally, we had to reinstall GDM
[22:07] <krim> I want to convert several .odt files to .doc, is there an automatic way of doing this? I don't really feel like opening every file in OpenOffice and doing the "save as..." thing.
[22:08] <SebNaitsabes> I think
[22:08] <SebNaitsabes> you can probably just rename the file name
[22:08] <poopuser> hi.can anyone explain me how can i copy marked text and paste marked in 'nano'?
[22:08] <daxroc> describe what you want to do , there's prob a better solution / method
[22:08] <soundray> macvr, unop: thanks -- I'm glad you managed to avoid a full reinstallation
[22:08] <krim> SebNaitsabes: If that was for me I'm pretty sure that won't do it.
[22:08] <unop> soundray, though, a lot of permissions weren't changed -- which is expected .. so we did something like.   while read -d : dir; do sudo chmod +x "$dir"/*; done <<< "$PATH"
[22:08] <soundray> !repeat | poopuser
[22:09] <SebNaitsabes> krim: why convert into doc?
[22:09] <lasse> Isn't paste just to right click in nano?
[22:09] <macvr> soundray> thats was the biggest relief
[22:09] <gpled> unop: hvgotcodes its dells goback software
[22:09] <poopuser> lasse : no mous
[22:09] <poopuser> mouse
[22:09] <unop> macvr, though, i don't think you are fully out of the water just yet
[22:09] <gpled> woops
[22:10] <gpled> hvgotcodes: its dells goback software
[22:10] <kappabuntu> is there a kill command or keyboard shortcut that will close a frozen window?
[22:10] <gpled> hvgotcodes: if you know what your doing, you do not need it
[22:10] <macvr> unop > i know, i have to check a lot of the other programs/ besides that what should i look out for?
[22:10] <unop> macvr, there might be other permission-related issues which might pop up from time to time .. keep your eyes peeled
[22:10] <krim> SebNaitsabes: Cause it's for people who use Word.
[22:10] <sabhain> Upgrade hung at "generating locales" .. now from console, I can't run dpkg .. I get a "bash: dpkg: command not found" error.  Thus, I can't do the well documented solution to the generated local hang
[22:11] <macvr> unop> thunderbird i recieved the error,....some programs dont even alert,eg: firefox... how would i know?
[22:12] <d_dyer> i want to know if i uninstall "Wine" will that also uninstall my windows Apps or will i have to uninstall them one app at a time?
[22:12] <unop> macvr, well, most programs should be ok now .. but some might complain about 'insecure file permissions' or 'permission denied' while trying to access files or directories,  adjusting the permissions accordingly should help a reinstall of the package might do too
[22:12] <unop> macvr, well, try launching the program from the terminal -- that way you'll catch warnings and errors - which will give you indications/ideas as to what's wrong
[22:13] <kilo13> on
[22:13] <unop> macvr, resolving problems is then taken on a case-by-case basis
[22:14] <macvr> other than the installed programs.... will my system essentials be ok?
[22:14] <unop> macvr, i'd be inclined to say 'yes' but i can't be certain
[22:15] <hvgotcodes> gpled -- i think ill keep the 2 small ones and just wipe out the big one
[22:15] <poopuser> coming to #ubantu for help.what was i thinking?
[22:15]  * unop who'd help someone with a nick like that?
[22:15] <erUSUL> d_dyer: just uninstall wine and then wipe out your ~/.wine/ directory
[22:16] <strategy> Does anyone know of a (graphical) simple web browser that's fast? Firefox is just totally unusable..
[22:17] <macvr> in case of system problems...   right clicking the file and set file permission to=read&write? via gksudo nautilus is enough?
[22:17] <erUSUL> !info dilo
[22:18] <d_dyer> ok thanks you erUSUL
[22:18] <macvr> unop>in case of system problems...   right clicking the file and set file permission to=read&write? via gksudo nautilus is enough?
[22:18] <d_dyer> Thank you*
[22:18] <imachine> sup! :-)
[22:18] <krim> strategy: Firefox is hardly unusable but try Konqueror
[22:18] <DavidCanarias> My web browser firefox is giving me problems as some web sites crash and the error coming up is BadWindow. Can anyone suggest a good alternative for Hardy? Thanks
[22:18] <imachine> is there some way to use ext4/ext4dev on ubuntu ?
[22:18] <strategy> krim, well for me it is..
[22:18] <imachine> I have an old partition from my other distro, but I moved to ubuntu and i'd like to use my old files to move them etc.
[22:18] <krim> strategy: Don't know if it's any faster though, try to find some test which shows how fast each browser is.
[22:18] <NoCigar> Hello! I have Ubuntu on a Live CD but that CD is damaged, I still can use it Live though. Problem is, I can't install it and I was wondering if I could somehow install it using this Live CD and internet
[22:19] <NoCigar> I  have the .iso file on my mp3-player aswell
[22:19] <imachine> if you have the iso you could just burn that to a cd eh ?
[22:19] <krim> strategy: And blocking all ads speed things up.
[22:19] <NoCigar> can't, I don't have any empty CDs :/
[22:19] <imachine> tough luck :)
[22:20] <NoCigar> I'm using the Live CD at the moment
[22:20] <imachine> I think you can boot from usb, try goolging for that.
[22:20] <imachine> googling*
[22:20] <Drk_Guy> imachine, syslinux
[22:20] <sss> how to ssh home pc and office pc
[22:20] <Drk_Guy> :)
[22:20] <strategy> krim, i dont think it's ads.. just runs slowly and it's nearly impossible to scroll, because it keeps scrolling after you finish pressing the scrollbar down(because it hasnt scrolled enough yet i guess)..
[22:20] <NoCigar> imachine, there is no other way huh?
[22:20] <imachine> Drk_Guy, yeah, that's what I think debian mentioned, when I tried booting it on a barebone with no cd fdrive.
[22:20] <krim> NoCigar: I've thought about installing without cd but it always seemed like a real PITA in the end. I think you're better off just waiting until you have a cd. But things might have changed.
[22:21] <NoCigar> a command or something that started an online installer
[22:21] <Drk_Guy> imachine, pop your stick, copy the cd files, then generate a config file for syslinux and there ya go
[22:21] <NoCigar> I remember using another dist a long time ago, net install worked like a charm
[22:21] <imachine> NoCigar, no that I know of. I'm not using ubuntu for a while. Just a few hours, so I haven't gotten to it's insides yet. TBH, I plan to run it with as little customization as required - wanna see how an average "not knowing much" user will manage using it :)
[22:21] <imachine> how usable it is.
[22:21] <imachine> Drk_Guy, I kno; it's not me having issues tho.
[22:22] <NoCigar> hmm
[22:22] <NoCigar> argh
[22:22] <NoCigar> I'm so unlucky
[22:22] <imachine> NoCigar, mebb there's some netinstall command on the livecd
[22:22] <krim> strategy: well, try konqueror or epiphany but I have a feeling it's not a problem with Firefox
[22:22] <imachine> dunno
[22:22] <jalvarado_> how can I install a Wireless G 54M USB Adapter?
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> imachine, just a quick-and-dirty suggestion
[22:22] <AB1> hi all
[22:22] <imachine> Drk_Guy, yeah k
[22:22] <NoCigar> Windows CD won't format my harddrive, Linux CD does but the CD is corrupted
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> :p
[22:22] <Drk_Guy> NoCigar, re-download Gparted liveCD
[22:22] <imachine> Drk_Guy, tell me about ext4dev tho ;-)
[22:22] <d_dyer> erUSUL:Where can i find the wine folder
[22:23] <erUSUL> d_dyer: your home
[22:23] <Drk_Guy> imachine, ext4 is really in the future
[22:23] <d_dyer> ok
[22:23] <imachine> Drk_Guy, hehe
[22:23] <strategy> krim, oh noes..
[22:23] <imachine> Drk_Guy, ok, I've been using it for about a year now, it worked great.
[22:23] <Drk_Guy> imachine, although vanilla kernels (like the one i'm running) offer support for it
[22:23] <imachine> I just need to move my files from an old partition tho.
[22:23] <AB1> i just installed ubuntu and everythings nice. is it possible that i could change the boot selections (i am multi booting with windows) into something more colorful like opensuse?
[22:23] <NoCigar> Drk_Guy why do I need to download g-parted?
[22:23] <Drk_Guy> imachine, ext4 shouldn't be used
[22:24] <NoCigar> it's the files that are supposed to be installed that are corrupted
[22:24] <Drk_Guy> NoCigar, because it'll format your partitions
[22:24] <imachine> Drk_Guy, yeah, I know. ubuntu kernel doesn't have it. do you know how I can run it on ubbuntu, so I can get my old files like firefox configs etc ?
[22:24] <imachine> I need my e-mails :-)
[22:24] <Drk_Guy> imachine, you have to compile a kernel (EXTREMELY easy)
[22:24] <fatbrain> Hellow, when using gnome-terminal, is there a way I can disable all keyboard-shotcuts briefly while working in vim editor?
[22:24] <Boglizk> Hey, my mouse is stuck.. like.. stuck, i cant click nor move it. Any way to fix it (Preferably without ctrl-alt-backspace please /o\)
[22:24] <imachine> Drk_Guy, any ubuntu way to do that?
[22:24] <Drk_Guy> imachine, and it provides you with EXTREMELY fast kernel
[22:24] <imachine> Drk_Guy, I remember debian having some kernel-config stuff.
[22:24] <Drk_Guy> !kernel
[22:24] <imachine> like, kernelconfig packages or so.
[22:25] <Drk_Guy> :p
[22:25] <imachine> oh cheers
[22:25] <imachine> I love ubuntu as it is. seems so at least.
[22:25] <imachine> it boots faster than arch...
[22:25] <misse-> Drk_Guy: so, do you really gain that much performance by compiling your own kernel?
[22:25] <imachine> it really gained a lot recently.
[22:25] <bazz> i need a calendaring app that a) will mostly just sit in my system tray and notify me of appointments, and b) will sync with google calender.  orage would be perfect if it could sync to google.   anything else like that?
[22:25] <imachine> I last run it for tests at 6.x or so. wasn't as fast as it is now.
[22:25] <Drk_Guy> misse-, :) ubuntu stock kernel loads up all modules
[22:25] <imachine> it got a lot better :)
[22:25] <Drk_Guy> misse-, my kernel only loads my hw's modules
[22:26] <imachine> bazz, you can use evolution.
[22:26] <imachine> bazz, just get the google plugins and some tray plugin app.
[22:26] <misse-> Drk_Guy: ah yeah. :P I thought you ment that a kernel compiled on your own system beats the generic ;P ofc it runs faster when slimmed
[22:26] <jiMMiE_bO> silly question but, I want to change my desktop backroundpic and downloaded and "installed" a few, but now I don't know where I can find em?! so wazzup!? Ò.ó
[22:26] <Drk_Guy> misse-, i mean, generic kernel is really owned by custom kernel
[22:27] <bazz> imachine: evolution is a pretty heavyweight solution to the problem.  i don't need all that extra stuff, i'd prefer something that was just my calendar
[22:27] <misse-> Drk_Guy: yeah. wordup :»
[22:27] <Drk_Guy> misse-, lol
[22:27] <misse-> :P
[22:27] <macvr> unop>in case of system or any other problems...   reinstall tht component will do?  starting programs from the command line should end with  "&"  to specify error? or just the command would display the error?

[22:27] <misse-> Drk_Guy: I gotta check what chipset my new server is running.
[22:28] <Drk_Guy> misse-, if you run nvidia, you're good to go
[22:28] <ballzee> how can i add my maxter exturnal usb 2.0 to my /etc/fstab it keeps changing its name automounting it from onetouch4 to onetouch4-1
[22:28] <jalvarado_> hi  eduardicimo, how can I install a Wireless G 54M USB Adapter?
[22:28] <LeszekeM> hello everybody:)
[22:28] <imachine> bazz, I understand. it's just that evolution is already there ;))
[22:28] <misse-> Drk_Guy: whu? Nah. It's definetely not nvidia chipset.
[22:28] <misse-> Drk_Guy: it'sa dual s370 from an old Dell Poweredge.
[22:28] <bazz> Jack_Sparrow: will check it out, thanks.  does it support syncing to gcal?
[22:29] <Drk_Guy> misse-, the nforce drivers from nvidia are opensource, and thus, included in the kernel
[22:29] <dem> hey guys
[22:29] <dem> how do you do..
[22:29] <strategy> krim, well epiphany is slightly better, but not by too much. you're right of course. it appears(via gnome-monitor) that i'm only using half my ram though(200MB is empty).. shouldnt that mean thay anything i run should have enough RAM to run happily..?
[22:29] <Jack_Sparrow> bazz No idea, I just used it for scheduling
[22:29] <misse-> Drk_Guy: I did not know that. But nvidia chipset for a server? naah.
[22:29] <dem> Is anybody here from Greece?
[22:29] <Drk_Guy> misse-, nvidia chipsetn owns
[22:30] <link606> hey im trying to gete my new pal centro to sync with jpilot so i can upload stuff to it. i just dont know what port to use

[22:30] <imachine> Drk_Guy, which heat up quickly and nvidia sort of treats them withtout proper care.
[22:30] <Drk_Guy> imachine, why? my nforce4 rocks
[22:30] <misse-> Drk_Guy: I'm an intel kind of guy when it comes to chipsets. Have started to dislike nvidia somwhat also because of their proprietary drivers lacking in performance
[22:30] <Jack_Sparrow> jalvarado_ HAve you checked the supported hardware page for your specific hardware
[22:30] <dem> ok pirate Jack ;).... se gamo kai xino
[22:31] <Drk_Guy> misse-, not really
[22:31] <imachine> Drk_Guy, they heat up.
[22:31] <bazz> Jack_Sparrow: looks pretty good thanks
[22:31] <Jack_Sparrow> bazz np
[22:31] <imachine> Drk_Guy, more than they should.

[22:31] <imachine> Drk_Guy, it's a common mistake with newer, mobile, chipsets.
[22:31] <imachine> like 9600gt or 8600gt.
[22:31] <Drk_Guy> imachine, my MB stays cool, even with stock cooling
[22:32] <imachine> 8600gs. etc.
[22:32] <Drk_Guy> imachine, i use 7300le
