[10:09] <Creed> anyone done a network install of ubuntu/have a better guide than what is on the wiki? using a win2k3 server to install from
[10:09] <radix> ramensammich: which isn't really an analog of update-manager
[10:09] <jrib> juano__: do you have the one with nvidia as the driver?
[10:09] <ramensammich> m bad
[10:10] <ladydoor> iulian: and if you need to change the directory on your computer (not the server), try lcd newdir
[10:10] <ramensammich> analog?
[10:10] <ladydoor> iulian: Did that help?
[10:10] <juano__> jrib: sorry ?
[10:10] <juano__> jrib: what do you mean
[10:10] <ramensammich> I thouht that ean  clio
[10:10] <radix> ramensammich: it's not similar; it just does the "dumb" upgrade of packages
[10:10] <Archoniam> /ns IDENTIFY racing
[10:10] <radix> update-manager does much more
[10:10] <Archoniam> woops lol
[10:10] <ramensammich> nah
[10:10] <Archoniam> uhoh
[10:10] <ramensammich> aptitude
[10:10] <Jack_Sparrow> guix: Starting with a fresh install....
[10:10] <ramensammich> does a lot more than apt-get
[10:10] <ramensammich> it checks dependencis etc
[10:10] <alecwh> I just got my laptop in the mail today, and I'm trying to install Ubuntu on it. I put in the Live CD, clicked "Start or Install Ubuntu", and then as it was loading, it stopped, and gave me a message: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off". I can type commands in, too. What do I do?
[10:10] <iulian> ladydoor, scuse me for the delay; yes, put was exactly what I needed
[10:10] <radix> ramensammich: I didn't compare it to apt-get.
[10:11] <iulian> ladydoor, thank you
[10:11] <ramensammich> oh
[10:11] <ladydoor> iulian: Sweet.
[10:11] <ramensammich> NEm
[10:11] <NemesisD> ramensammich, did you use my name on accident?
[10:11] <ladydoor> iulian: No problem.
[10:11] <juano__> jrib:
[10:11] <ramensammich> uses windows backup
[10:11] <jrib> juano__: the xorg.conf you posted is using the nv driver
[10:11] <ramensammich> to create backups
[10:11] <jrib> !enter | ramensammich
[10:11] <ubotu> ramensammich: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[10:11] <ramensammich> and create a share in the ubuntu machine
[10:11] <radix> ramensammich: update-manager does a bunch of Ubuntu-specific things to make sure it upgrades to a release of Ubuntu in the correct way.
[10:11] <ramensammich> k
[10:11] <radix> Anyway, I guess there isn't one...
[10:11] <juano__> jrib: i know, its because i had to change it to make it enter here
[10:11] <guix> OK, I'LL TRY
[10:11] <juano__> jrib: its the same but with nvidia instead of nv
[10:12] <jrib> !upgrade > radix (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:12] <ramensammich> anyways, create a backup using the windwos backup tool., and have it save to a shared resource on the ubuntu drive
[10:12] <radix> thanks, jrib.
[10:12] <juano__> jrib: just picture it with nvidia instead of nv, only that line changed
[10:12] <jrib> radix: I *think* that pages mentions how to use it on a server install which would need to be on the console
[10:12] <radix> jrib: er, I didn't get one.
[10:12] <radix> oh, it took a while.
[10:12] <Cyber_Stalker> !intel
[10:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about intel - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:13] <radix> ohh, "do-release-upgrade".
[10:13] <juano__> jrib: mmm what could it be
[10:13] <jrib> juano__: k, well in the original log you pasted, search for (EE), that's all the errors.  That first one looks strange.  I'm going to google a bit
[10:13] <Archoniam> Well, anyway. i'm having some type of bug. I can't run the packages "swftools" and "gimpshop" for some reason. YES, I HAVE CHECKED APTITUDE. Also, it just says it's not there. Interesting, riiiight? PLEEEEASE help me, i really dont feel like repeating my question!!
[10:13] <Archoniam> =3
[10:14] <NemesisD> ramensammich, yes thats what im trying to achieve, to create a backup of a windows machine's drive on an ubuntu machine that is connected via a crossover cable
[10:14] <jrib> Archoniam: those pacakges don't exist on ubuntu
[10:14] <ramensammich> yeah
[10:14] <ramensammich> XP?
[10:15] <Archoniam> jrib: What the heck? They exist on Debian, at least. And Debian packages run on ubuntu. They are on my aptitude.
[10:15] <unix4me> !info denemo
[10:15] <ubotu> denemo: A gtk+ frontend to GNU Lilypond. In component main, is optional. Version 0.7.5-4ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 963 kB, installed size 2796 kB
[10:15] <alecwh> I just got my laptop in the mail today, and I'm trying to install Ubuntu on it. I put in the Live CD, clicked "Start or Install Ubuntu", and then as it was loading, it stopped, and gave me a message: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off". I can type commands in, too. What do I do? (Vista is currently on the machine, I booted up and then restarted with disc)
[10:15] <radix> thanks guys.
[10:15] <ladydoor> Archoniam: Ubuntu is debian-based, but they're not identical. You could perhaps try downloading the .deb file from debian and installing it manually with dpkg.
[10:15] <jrib> Archoniam: afaict, no packages by that name exist
[10:16] <unix4me> how do I add another clef in denemo
[10:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Archoniam: have you checked your sources list
[10:16] <Archoniam> ladydoor: Ooookay....
[10:16] <Cyber_Stalker> where is the xorg.conf?
[10:16] <jrib> Cyber_Stalker: /etc/X11/
[10:16] <Cyber_Stalker> and is it ok to manually edit and tweek it?
[10:16] <scorp123> Cyber_Stalker: /etc/X11/
[10:16] <Archoniam> Jack_Sparrow: Sources list? You mean software sources, right?
[10:16] <jrib> Cyber_Stalker: yes, make a backup and know how to restore it
[10:16] <nokor> I can't print with my HP OfficeJet G55 printer, any help?
[10:16] <ramensammich> NEMESIS: if XP Pro, jsut gp to start, programs acessories, backup and make whatever backup you want
[10:16] <Jack_Sparrow> Archoniam: yes
[10:17] <scorp123> Cyber_Stalker: you better make a backup of it first ...
[10:17] <jrib> juano__: poke around /usr/lib/xorg/modules//libglx.so and see if anything is strange
[10:17] <Archoniam> jrib: Look 'em up at http://packages.debian.com/ .
[10:17] <ramensammich> on hte ubuntu box jsut use samba to createa shared folder...then from the windows box moutn it as a network drive and save directly to it
[10:17] <cybrhuman> How do I reenable the default graphics drivers in Feisty? (from commandline... since my gui doesn't work)
[10:17] <Archoniam> jrib: Well, at least swftools is there.
[10:18] <alecwh> I just got my laptop in the mail today, and I'm trying to install Ubuntu on it. I put in the Live CD, clicked "Start or Install Ubuntu", and then as it was loading, it stopped, and gave me a message: "/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off". I can type commands in, too. What do I do? I'm running the memory test right now, but do I have to do something in the BIOS?
[10:18] <juano__> jrib: the file is in there
[10:18] <ramensammich> simpel question: if I leave my work staton and log back in ( CLI) how do I resume what I was doing
[10:18] <thorndike> Is anyone aware of where I can download the older megaraid driver?  I need to move some servers off of 5.04 and up to a more recent version.  Can I pull the driver off of the operable server and install it under the LTS versions?
[10:18] <ramensammich> a wget downlaod for example
[10:18] <Jack_Sparrow> Archoniam:                  gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[10:18] <revears> lu
[10:18] <jrib> Archoniam: note that what si in feisty is what was in debian at the beginning of the year
[10:18] <ramensammich> how do I see the progress bar again?
[10:19] <jrib> juano__: if it's a symlink, make sure it's not dangling
[10:19] <bria1> does anyone know why my desktop scrolls a few pixels when the mouse reaches the left or right edges?
[10:19] <juano__> jrib: how can i be sure of this
[10:19] <bria1> its like it doesn't fit, but only by 2-4 pixels
[10:19] <juano__> jrib: its light blue in gnome-terminal
[10:19] <jrib> juano__: join me in #ubuntu-classroom
[10:19] <ptn107> alecwh:  you using feisty?
[10:20] <alecwh> ptn107, sure am.
[10:20] <alecwh> well, installing fiesty at least.
[10:20] <ptn107> alecwh:  the i386?
[10:20] <alecwh> what is that?
[10:20] <stuart-> hm, kmobiletools page doesn't haev much documentation. does it support data transfer like pics/mp3
[10:20] <ptn107> alecwh: you have a 64 bit processor in that thing>
[10:20] <ptn107> alecwh: you have a 64 bit processor in that thing?
[10:20] <stuart-> oh wiat they have a channel
[10:20] <alecwh> Dell Latitude D630, that's the laptop I'm installing on. And I have a Intel Core 2 Duo... not sure.
[10:20] <samwize> alecwh: i386 system architecture
[10:20] <dogwater> took me 16 tries to install ubuntu on a box lol
[10:21] <alecwh> I honestly don't know.
[10:21] <dogwater> problem with mirrors much lol
[10:21] <alecwh> How do I find out?
[10:21] <cybrhuman> How do I reenable the default graphics drivers in Feisty?
[10:21] <bria1> does anyone know what its called when my entire desktop scrolls at the edges? so I can google for answers?
[10:21] <samwize> alecwh: you can find your system architecture in system information
[10:21] <samwize> yours should be x86
[10:22] <magnetron> bria1: desktop effects?
[10:22] <ptn107> alecwh: its a core 2 duo, yours should be 64 bit
[10:22] <alecwh> samwize, the laptop I'm installing it on doesn't have a linux operating system yet. I'm just trying to install it right now...
[10:22] <jrattner1> Question: What is the easiest wiki to set up on an ubuntu webserver?
[10:22] <jrattner1> ?
[10:22] <ptn107> alecwh: thats what the intel site says
[10:22] <alecwh> ok, ptn107, but I'm using 32bit.
[10:22] <Jowi> alecwh, I would try with the alternate cd (or the minimal 8MB CD iso that downloads the packages from the net)
[10:22] <samwize> oh, i thought core 2 duo was x86...
[10:22] <bria1> magnetron: isn't that more like compiz-glx stuff?
[10:22] <bria1> this is a new install
[10:22] <ramensammich> c2d is both
[10:22] <ptn107> alecwh: you should try the 64 bit cd image to install see if that says the same thing
[10:22] <Jowi> alecwh, 32/64 bit versions should both work.
[10:22] <danya__> when I get that the package has no installation candidate ? what should I do !!?
[10:23] <anTiX> is it possible to have gThumb save comments directly in the jpg-files and not as extra xml-files?
[10:23] <Archoniam> Jack_Sparrow, what is the debian package site that i should put in as a deb (not deb-src) source? The mirror i used?
[10:23] <alecwh> But I would prefer not to use the 64-bit.... lots of apps don't work with it
[10:23] <magnetron> bria1: compiz is bundled by default, i thought you referred to the Cube effect
[10:23] <alecwh> right?
[10:23] <bria1> nope
[10:23] <bria1> its just like my desktop is a few pixels wider than my display
[10:23] <ptn107> alecwh: just some plugins like flash, but there are workarounds.
[10:23] <ptn107> alecwh: i have no complaints about feisty-64
[10:23] <alecwh> I'm a web deveolper, so that's vital. ;)
[10:23] <bria1> so when the mouse reaches the right edge the whole thing moves a few pixels to show the final couple of columns
[10:23] <alecwh> and where is that 8mb thing?
[10:23] <Jowi> alecwh, yeah like flash. anyway, I got the same error but on totally different hardware with the feisty CD. the alternate cd worked better for me.
[10:24] <alecwh> ptn107, is 64bit better?
[10:24] <Cubey> good god, i'm getting worse performance out of ubuntu than I ever did on WinME when it was near death
[10:24] <ptn107> alecwh: jowi has a point, alternate cd should be tried first
[10:24] <samwize> i say stick with 32bit
[10:24] <alecwh> ok, where can I find that?
[10:24] <Cubey> the system was fine, i shut down, started it back up and it's like i'm on a 233Mhz with 64MB RAM
[10:24] <alecwh> and how can I burn it (I'm on my ubuntu desktop, my other PC)
[10:24] <ptn107> alecwh: your better off staying 32 for the hell of it
[10:24] <Jowi> alecwh the minimal can be found here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[10:25] <alecwh> ok, thanks! And is there a reason I would prefer 64-bit?
[10:25] <Cubey> how the heck do you even diagnose a problem that bogs your system WAAAAAAAY down?
[10:25] <Cubey> the system was fine, on the next boot it's total crap
[10:25] <Jowi> Cubey, htop is a godsend
[10:25] <alecwh> Jowi, ptn107, where can I find the alternate CD?
[10:25] <ptn107> alecwh: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/   and just download PC (Intel x86) alternate install CD
[10:26] <blargman> how would i go about removing mac80211 from ubuntu?
[10:26] <alecwh> ok, ptn107. What do You recomend I burn the .iso with? (i'm on a ubuntu pc)
[10:26] <Cubey> Jowi, installing it now....
[10:26] <alecwh> !burn
[10:26] <Jowi> alecwh, ubuntu.com. click on desktop download and there is a checkbox underneath the download button for the alternate
[10:26] <ubotu> CD/DVD Burning software: K3b (KDE), gnomebaker, serpentine, graveman, Nautilus cd burner (Gnome), gtoaster, xcdroast, cdrecord (terminal-based). Burning .iso files: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[10:26] <ptn107> alecwh: ha, well there you go
[10:26] <alecwh> heh, ok. I'll go with gnomebaker
[10:27] <Cubey> Jowi, what good will this do me btw, it's just a process viewer
[10:27] <alecwh> Ok, and ptn107, if this doesn't work, what can I try?
[10:28] <cybrhuman> How do I reenable the default graphics drivers in Feisty? (Please help a newbie getting his gui working again)
[10:28] <Jowi> Cubey, it will let you know what bogs down your system cpu wise and it is easy to kill processes with it even when windows stop responding.
[10:28] <Frack-Hesse> if i make an ext2 fs on my existing fat32 partition via "mkfs.ext2 /dev/hda3", is the data on that partition then automatically beeing ereased?
[10:28] <Frack-Hesse> because i want that^^
[10:28] <Jowi> Cubey, if that was not what you asked you might want to rephrase your question.
[10:28] <Cubey> ok, thanks, when/if it ever finishes installing (yes, the system is that bogged down) i'll see
[10:28] <Cplunsford> hey all anyone know what the wine server/channel is?
[10:29] <ptn107> alecwh: i dont think i know much beyond the gui or text installers;  ive honestly never had a problem installing either way, someone else is bound to know
[10:29] <ramensammich> so can anyone help m?

[10:32] <Frack-Hesse> if i make an ext2 fs on my existing fat32 partition via "mkfs.ext2 /dev/hda3", is the data on that partition then automatically beeing ereased?

[10:42] <univremonster> cyberhuman:  I sent you a private message
[10:43] <mabo> .tar.gz
[10:43] <univremonster> cyberhuman:  Do you know how to cleanup the drivers from your old graphics card?
[10:43] <scorp123> mabo: unpack it then .... besides: Shouldn't there be a readme file or something?
[10:43] <w8tah> mabo -- ok - -sounds like you have grabbed a source package - in VERY general terms -- you are going to have to install the build-essentials package (if you do nt have it already)
[10:43] <Archoniam> ...
[10:43] <cybrhuman> univremonster: No...
[10:43] <w8tah> mabo: then -- unpack the source, cd into the directory, type ./configure then when its done, type make then sudo make install
[10:44] <Jowi> andrer_, I don't see why you would want that since a NIC without IP is useless, but you can customize the NICs in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf
[10:44] <scorp123> w8tah: why do you suppose it's a source package? All we know it's a tar.gz ... could be anything.
[10:44] <univremonster> cybrhuman:  I think you may have the same problem as me
[10:44] <w8tah> mabo: BUT!!!! that varies some what package to package so use at your own risk
[10:44] <mabo> humm
[10:44] <mabo> i dont understand so much
[10:44] <mabo> wait
[10:44] <univremonster> cyberhuman:  My problems were less severe, I just can't do 3D rendering.  But I know that you have to remove the old drivers before things work normally
[10:44] <w8tah> in general tar.gz is used for source -- .deb or equivalent for binaries
[10:44] <andrer_> Jowi: i want the interface to be up just for a Virtual Machine to work from it... but I don't want the "host" to have an IP
[10:44] <mabo> where i find the essential pakpage?
[10:44] <Sivik> can i get some assistance trying to figure out why i'm having issues with reinstalling grub: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30459/
[10:45] <mabo> hoo i see
[10:45] <cybrhuman> univremonster: could you help me do that?
[10:45] <mabo> ...
[10:45] <mabo> binari
[10:45] <w8tah> use apt, synaptic or aptitude to install it -- but PLEASE BE CAREFUL
[10:45] <univremonster> cybrhuman:  Not really, I'm a n00b at this kind of thing.  I have found at www.ubuntuforums.org that it involves messing with xorg
[10:45] <scorp123> w8tah: that's just wrong .... tar.gz could be anything.
[10:45] <Roundy_T1> Hey, i need help setting up my Creative 24bit sound card for 5.1 surround...anyone willing to help me out on this one?
[10:45] <mc44> univremonster: does your new card not work?
[10:45] <w8tah> scorp123: ok - -i stand corrected
[10:45] <Jowi> andrer_, "man interfaces" will list some options (like assgning static addresses)
[10:46] <scorp123> mabo: what software are we talking about? Can you please give us the full filename?
[10:46] <w8tah> mabo: ignore everything i just sent you - -and proceede at your own risk
[10:46] <univremonster> mc44:  It works, but it doesn't render 3D and it's choppy
[10:46] <mc44> univremonster: what card?
[10:46] <andrer_> Jowi: i did look into that... but it doesn't work if i don't add the address (and in this case, no address is not a static address)
[10:46] <Archoniam> I ask once more, what do you type for the debian unstable deb
[10:46] <Archoniam> what source*
[10:46] <andrer_> Jowi: i could try to assign ip <IP_ADDRESS> to it... but what would be the "netmask" parameter for that? <IP_ADDRESS> as well?
[10:46] <univremonster> mc44:  	 FREETECH PX6200TD-128M GeForce 6200 128MB DDR PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail
[10:46] <mc44> Archoniam: why do you want debian debs,,,?
[10:47] <mc44> univremonster: are you on feisty?
[10:47] <scorp123> Archoniam: you'd be better off to use Debian right away.
[10:47] <univremonster> mc44: yes, updated 2 days ago from Dapper
[10:47] <univremonster> I had the same problems in all 3 (Dapper, Edgy, Fiesty)
[10:47] <mc44> univremonster: have you tried System -> Admin -> Restricted Driver Manager
[10:48] <Cubey> Jowi, it's not anything using cpu power
[10:48] <Archoniam> mc44: I'm trying to get swftools to run. I NEED IT FOR SELF-STABILITY!
[10:48] <Roundy_T1> Hey, i need help setting up my Creative 24bit sound card for 5.1 surround...anyone willing to help me out on this one?
[10:48] <Cubey> it's simply acting like crap
[10:48] <univremonster> mc44:  I have not.  I am there now and it says it is "not in use"
[10:48] <Jowi> andrer_, I would set a dummy static address. or see if  /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf has other options...
[10:48] <mc44> Archoniam: debian debs may not work on ubuntu, and adding a debian repository to your sources.list is a bad idea
[10:48] <Cubey> in all the years I've used windows, I never had an installtion, not even WinME, go back in 4 days the way ubuntu has
[10:48] <mc44> univremonster: then enable it
[10:48] <Cubey> go bad*
[10:48] <univremonster> mc44:  "Because the software is proprietary, it cannot easily be changed to fix any future problems"
[10:48] <kismet> Cubey, your jinxed :p
[10:49] <Archoniam> scorp123: Are you CRAZY? Ubuntu friggin' ROCKS man!
[10:49] <mc44> univremonster: yes, don't worry
[10:49] <Jowi> Cubey, rephrase your question.
[10:49] <univremonster> mc44:  how do I enable then?
[10:49] <mc44> univremonster: click the box...?
[10:49] <scorp123> Archoniam: yes, but why then your insistence to use packages from another distro?
[10:49] <plich_> did someone have a wireless card supported by ndiswrapper ??
[10:49] <bruenig> scorp123, are you talking about debian?
[10:49] <univremonster> mc44:  sorry my theme is a bit... off and the box was the same color as the background.  Got it now.  Thanks!
[10:50] <iNcrease> anyone can help? i got this xmodmap problem ... i got mx518 mice  with this as standard option: xmodmap -e " pointer = 1 2 3 8 6 7 4 5 9"
[10:50] <iNcrease>  .. now i want to let work my prev and next button on it but cant seems to find it :...
[10:50] <Archoniam> scorp123: I'll tell you what i told to mc44- I NEED SWFTOOLS FOR SELF-STABILITY!!
[10:50] <wesolek> hello :) can anybody help me out going back to windows? Windows installer doesn't see the partitions that linux was on so I've been struggling for the past few hours to get it back to normal - no luck :(
[10:50] <bruenig> !caps | Archoniam
[10:50] <ubotu> Archoniam: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[10:50] <mc44> !caps | Archoniam
[10:50] <scorp123> bruenig: Archoniam here tries to install non-Ubuntu packages on Ubuntu ...
[10:50] <Cubey> Jowi, it's not so much a question as a statement. i can't figure out what's wrong. it's not something eating up CPU. the system simply is bogged down now after i did a proper shut down. i booted it back up to find it to be performing in a useless fashion. it takes 5 minutes to boot to the desktop
[10:50] <bruenig> scorp123, oh
[10:50] <bruenig> Archoniam, that's not a good idea unless you are compiling from source
[10:51] <Cubey> there are no errors when I run it in recovery mode to veiw what happens
[10:51] <bruenig> compiling from source is safe but installing foreign debs can be problematic
[10:51] <TheCreationist> Can someone tell my why every program I try to print from crashes as soon as I select "Print" from a menu?  I tried removing and then reinstalling my printer driver, but now my printer suddenly isn't even detected....
[10:51] <scorp123> bruenig: exactly .... library versions and stuff can be different between Ubuntu and Debian ....
[10:51] <univremonster> cybrhuman:  Do you have a liveCD?
[10:51] <bruenig> yes compiled against different libraries is hell
[10:51] <cybrhuman> univremonster: in 20 minutes, yes
[10:52] <Cubey> the live cd performs better than my installed version now all of a sudden
[10:52] <univremonster> cybrhuman:  perhaps you can get your data off using that... though if you're burning one you already thought of that.  I have to restart, good luck!
[10:52] <wesolek> I need some help to change my partitions back to be visible by windows installer, I tried to change it in fdisk (linux) but so far no luck
[10:52] <iNcrease> anyone can help? i got this xmodmap problem ... i got mx518 mice  with this as standard option: xmodmap -e " pointer = 1 2 3 8 6 7 4 5 9"  .. now i want to let work my prev and next button on it but cant seems to find it :...
[10:52] <claria> hi, does anybody know this theme? http://img68.imageshack.us/my.php?image=htopww7.png
[10:52] <Jowi> Cubey, have a look in /etc/rc2.d to see if you have services starting up that you don't need (like various servers and indexing tools)
[10:53] <bruenig> wesolek, there is no reason the partitions wouldn't be invisible, you might check out ##windows though
[10:53] <bruenig> visible*
[10:53] <abhorred> Hey all, where is the option in KDE to change the Screen Resolution?
[10:53] <w8tah> can someone please point me to the ubuntu server channel -- #ubuntu-server as listed in the wiki seems to be defunct
[10:53] <abhorred> I get the feeling they buried it
[10:53] <bruenig> abhorred, #kubuntu might give you a quicker answer
[10:53] <mabo_> someone can talk spanish here??????????????????????
[10:53] <wesolek> you mean the channel windows? bruenig
[10:53] <Cubey> Jowi, it was fine until i shut down a short while ago. it's not something eating CPU, it's just bogged WAY down but, i'll check that too ....
[10:54] <bruenig> wesolek, yes
[10:54] <Jowi> Cubey, a nice tool for that (that has got explanations of all the services) is "bum"
[10:54] <mc44> w8tah: there is no specific channel

[10:54] <abhorred> I am using Ubuntu, I just happened to install KDE on it
[10:54] <wesolek> thanks bruenig :)
[10:54] <w8tah> mc44: ok -

[10:54] <bruenig> abhorred, right but the advice they give you will be the same
[10:54] <bruenig> wesolek, it is ##windows
[10:54] <abhorred> Aight man
[10:54] <wesolek> ##windows
[10:54] <Jowi> Cubey, ah, maybe it was just checking a disk for errors? if you reboot again is it ok?
[10:54] <wesolek> didn't work lol
[10:54] <bruenig> wesolek, /join ##windows
[10:54] <wesolek> oh ok lol
[10:54] <Cubey> Jowi, i've rebooted it about 5 times now
[10:55] <w8tah> im trying to install the ssmtp package that is shown in synaptic on my ubuntu LTS LAMP server -- but it refuses to be found -- can someone point me in the right direction?
[10:55] <Cubey> it sits on loading files for booting or something like that for a while for one
[10:55] <bruenig> !find ssmtp
[10:55] <ubotu> Found: ssmtp
[10:55] <Cubey> but when the GUI finally loads it's also bogged way down
[10:55] <Jowi> Cubey, every 30 boots or so the disk will be checked automatically. ah, ok. I would use "bum" I think. Can't think of anyway else to troubleshoot atm.
[10:55] <bruenig> !info ssmtp

[10:57] <w8tah> bruenig: must not have the right repos
[10:57] <NETWizz> I need help
[10:57] <Sivik> can i get some help with grub
[10:57] <w8tah> scorp123: ya i did but i'll do it again
[10:57] <Jowi> Cubey, /var/log/messages - /var/log/syslog - /var/log/boot (if you have that). no idea what to look for though. could be anything.
[10:57] <NETWizz> I went to debug a friend's dos boot disc for updating bios

[11:00] <Flannel> Sivik: Right, I saw your paste, looks... normal.  Your BIOS is setup to boot off of hd0, right?
[11:00] <blargman> how do i mount an iso rw?
[11:00] <cybrhuman> mc44: you seemed to be able to help univremonster with his drivers issue, maybe you could help me too with a graphics issue?
[11:00] <Jowi> Cubey, so check /var/log/dpkg.log to see what you installed
[11:00] <blargman> i tried -o loop,rw  :(
[11:00] <Cubey> might have been firestart perhaps, a firewall. i'm attempting to even get bum first. i have xfce up instead of gnome and it's just as slow
[11:00] <bruenig> blargman, you can't write to an iso
[11:00] <mc44> cybrhuman: whats the problem?
[11:01] <bruenig> blargman, you can extract it add some stuff and then put it back together
[11:01] <akari> bruenig: He's talking about an iso image file
[11:01] <scorp123> bruenig: should be possible
[11:01] <Sivik> Flannel, its the only hd that i have installed, i get to the grub 1.5 but then it just goes to grub>
[11:01] <bruenig> scorp123, not by mounting though
[11:01] <cybrhuman> mc44: installed new driver, and after that my gui hasn't worked.
[11:01] <Archoniam> WHAT THE CRAP? Nobody sees a five-line message? Well, this better be visible(for once)! (In advance, yes i have used sudo!

[11:02] <mc44> cybrhuman: what driver? what card?
[11:02] <mwe> mount the iso copy and change files, create a new iso
[11:02] <Jowi> Archoniam, "./configure" + "make" + "sudo checkinstall"
[11:02] <MrTankJump> the command did nothing to fix my problem
[11:02] <bruenig> well he said he can't write to it even with -o rw
[11:02] <mwe> of course not it wont mount rw
[11:02] <scorp123> Archoniam: besides, checkinstall won't work everywhere according to my experience.
[11:03] <bruenig> mwe, so then how do  you do it?
[11:03] <Archoniam> Jowi: As what?
[11:03] <Jowi> Archoniam, checkinstall creates and installs a .deb package. not a tar.gz.

[11:04] <Sivik> what else should i try, it seems to still not be working (the grub)
[11:04] <cybrhuman> mc44: package manager, the one that gnome uses.
[11:04] <cybrhuman> mc44: synaptic is it?
[11:04] <Flannel> Sivik: Ah.  That's not a re-install GRUB thign then.  That's a menu.lst issue
[11:04] <mc44> cybrhuman: yes, which driver did you install...?
[11:04] <bruenig> mwe, right well that is basically an alternative way to what I was saying
[11:04] <Flannel> Sivik: pastebin your menu.lst (/boot/grub/menu.lst)
[11:05] <Sivik> Flannel, then let me pastebin the menu.lst
[11:05] <Archoniam> scorp123 and Jowi, Checkinstall never works for some reason even if used in the most proper of ways.
[11:05] <Flannel> Sivik: make sure you get the one off your HD, not the one in memory of the LiveCD
[11:05] <bruenig> mwe, I just meant to say you can't mount an iso add files to it, unmount it and have that file changed, you have to add files and recreate it
[11:05] <Sivik> i know, i had it set that way
[11:05] <plich__> did someone have a wireless card supported by ndiswrapper ??
[11:06] <scorp123> Archoniam: well, you must be doing something wrong then. For complex issues I suggest you use the forums. It makes it easier to post complex issues, copy & paste outputs, etc. IRC has its limits you see.
[11:06] <mc44> cybrhuman: what error do you get on startup?
[11:06] <Jack_Sparrow> plich__: what wireless card do you have
[11:06] <Jowi> Archoniam, just make sure you have "build-essential" installed. and read that page link I gave you.
[11:06] <Archoniam> Well, there's the friggin' problem. Gotta chmod first.
[11:06] <bruenig> Archoniam, when you compile stuff it should tip you off as to whether it has erred, don't just ./configure make and make install without looking at what it spits out at you
[11:07] <Sivik> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30484/

[11:09] <cybrhuman> mc44: i executed an instruction for enabling that driver (command came up after instaling the package), I got a error message there i think but I thought it didnt mean so much...
[11:09] <Sivik> root is on sd3 and the boot is on sd2
[11:09] <VanillaTbone> OK, I got a simple problem that I cannot figure out guys...
[11:10] <mc44> cybrhuman: ok do "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and choose the "nv" driver and the defaults for everything else
[11:10] <Jack_Sparrow> plich__: Good luck with that.. I need to power down and switch some hardware.
[11:10] <cybrhuman> mc44: thanks, i will try that
[11:11] <sayers> I can't suspend because of a Plug and Play problem
[11:11] <mc44> cybrhuman: then run startx to get into the gui
[11:11] <VanillaTbone> I open my terminal use gedit to open a Python file and edit some syntax, but the file is "appears" to be blank. But this is a tech support's instructions on their software
[11:11] <bruenig> VanillaTbone, check that there wasn't a typo in te filename
[11:11] <bruenig> the*
[11:12] <Sivik> does having those two didn't partitions and hope that isn't a problem
[11:12] <Flannel> Sivik: Ah, that's your issue then.  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows#head-bf3232f10ddf1b078de064622ccbb25225cdb3c0  and pay special attenton to where he mounts /boot (his /dev/hda1)
[11:12] <VanillaTbone> I copied and pasted then cd'd to the dir and "ls" and it is the right one
[11:12] <bruenig> VanillaTbone, what does cat filename give you
[11:12] <dyrne> VanillaTbone: as a rule try to use tab completion when gedit filename just to be sure
[11:12] <VanillaTbone> Find the line that says:
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  {{{
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  # self.add_renderer("gstrenderer")
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  }}}
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  And remove the # at the beginning of it, so it should look like:
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  {{{
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  self.add_renderer("gstrenderer")
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  }}}
[11:12] <VanillaTbone>  The comment out the line that says
[11:12] <bruenig> !ops

[11:13] <Jowi> !paste > VanillaTbone
[11:13] <VanillaTbone> yeah
[11:13] <VanillaTbone> Sorry bout the flood guys
[11:13] <Cubey> *sigh* this is just insanity
[11:14] <Sivik> Flannel: i have that printed out
[11:14] <Flannel> Sivik: no, having those partitions separate isn't a problem, it's just different than having them together.  Most people prefer having /boot separate
[11:14] <bruenig> VanillaTbone, does cat filename give you stuff, yes or no?
[11:14] <Sivik> Flannel: ok
[11:14] <VanillaTbone> No bruenig
[11:14] <VanillaTbone> sec
[11:14] <Archoniam> VanillaTbone: Just use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and you'll be in the clear from being kickbanned by an op.
[11:14] <bruenig> VanillaTbone, but it doesn't tell you that the file doesn't exist?
[11:15] <VanillaTbone> sec
[11:15] <kaslepro> how do i increase the speed on my tutch pad? please help...
[11:15] <Compressed> is there an easy way to go back to python 2.4 after doing an apt-get update?
[11:15] <VanillaTbone> sudo gedit /usr/share/python-support/democracyplayer/democracy/frontend_implementation/VideoDisplay.py
[11:15] <Flannel> Sivik: Are you using the desktop CD or the alternate CD?
[11:15] <VanillaTbone> ^that is it
[11:15] <bruenig> Compressed, I believe they are installed simultaneously
[11:15] <Compressed> oh
[11:15] <bruenig> VanillaTbone, I don't care, do cat /that/long/thing and tell me if it shoots stuff out or not
[11:15] <VanillaTbone> alright bruenig
[11:16] <Sivik> Flannel: i see what i missed
[11:16] <Compressed> bruenig: in /usr/include i only see python2.5 dir
[11:16] <bruenig> !info python2.4
[11:16] <ubotu> python2.4: An interactive high-level object-oriented language (version 2.4). In component main, is optional. Version 2.4.4-2ubuntu7 (feisty), package size 2731 kB, installed size 9296 kB

[11:17] <Flannel> Sivik: sounds good.  Also, if you go to the bottom of the page, there's some tutorial from elsewhere, that walks you through it too (look for "configuring the GRUB menu")
[11:17] <bruenig> Compressed, yes they are two different packages, make sure python2.4 and python2.5 are installed
[11:17] <Compressed> ah
[11:17] <Compressed> apt-get install python2.4?
[11:17] <Cubey> it fails to even load the data
[11:17] <bruenig> Compressed, yes
[11:17] <Flannel> Sivik: I belive you just missed setting root to hda3
[11:17] <Compressed> oh ok ty
[11:17] <TJ1> Hi all  i was running Ubuntu 7.04 from a CD and it worked fine, when I installed it on the hard disk my wireless internet connection isnt working now   can someonehelp me get it working again?
[11:18] <bruenig> TJ1, does iwconfig give you any information as to which interface is the wireless interface or not
[11:18] <Jowi> Cubey, "sudo bum" should do it and it takes a while for it to find what you have installed. anyway, not sure I can give you more pointers than that. /var/log/dpkg.log can be useful to see what exactly you installed and if you really need it...
[11:18] <VanillaTbone> bruenig: you were right.... I will have to contact the support rep and get the right dir and/or filename. It does not exist
[11:18] <Carlos___> wolas
[11:19] <TJ1> hmmm
[11:19] <TJ1> how do i type that in?  lol
[11:19] <bruenig> TJ1, open the terminal applications>accessories>terminal and do 'iwconfig"
[11:20] <bruenig> mismatching quotes
[11:20] <bruenig> hmmm
[11:20] <BaD_CrC> bruenig: wlan0 usually
[11:20] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, usually yeah, mine is eth2 though
[11:20] <Sivik> Flannel: thanks for making me read it again
[11:21] <Flannel> Sivik: Get it figured out?
[11:21] <fzaly> anyone knows how to remove 'mldonkey' pls?
[11:21] <bruenig> fzaly, how did you install it?
[11:21] <TJ1> it says: No wireless extensions
[11:21] <BaD_CrC> bruenig: are you using a router as a client? that's how mine is setup.
[11:21] <w8tah> i know this is really really minor, but on my gentoo servers, both my normal command prompts and also my vi windows have some color coding to them - -on my ubuntu boxes they do not -- is there an EASY way to achieve this?
[11:21] <TJ1> on eth0
[11:21] <danya__> someone plz help me with wine installation !!?
[11:21] <TJ1> eth1 IEEE 802.11b/g
[11:21] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, it has to do with the chipset, ipw stuff is always eth2
[11:22] <TJ1> it works on the wired network
[11:22] <Archoniam> (now, i'm probably going to follow y'all's BS and i'll have to repeat it anyway.) I tried ta ./configure in swftools. It hates me and now it outputs the error here: (also the trial and error process i used) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30485/
[11:22] <BaD_CrC> bruenig: what chipset? i just got in, so if you said anything above, i didn't catch it.
[11:22] <TJ1> just n0oton the wireless
[11:22] <ladydoor> w8tah: Are you talking about the prompt? ls output? ncurses applications?
[11:22] <fzaly> i've ran the mlnet
[11:23] <TJ1> its an HP latop  p4  3.2ghz with 1gig of RAM
[11:23] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, no I mean the way that stuff is named is dependent on the wireless cards, intel cards from what I have read are usually named eth2 or ethsomething whereas other cards go with wlan0, it is dependent on that not on router config or whatever else you were talking about
[11:23] <w8tah> ladydoor: the prompt itself and everything in vi
[11:23] <fzaly> then it works
[11:23] <ladydoor> w8tah: what shell do you use? bash?
[11:23] <w8tah> yes
[11:23] <Roundy_T1> My sound works, but i don't have any control over the levels....any ideas?
[11:23] <bruenig> TJ1, are you sure it is eth0? does it have a bunch of stuff beside eth0 in the output:
[11:23] <bruenig> ?
[11:23] <TJ1> no  eth0 says no wireless connections
[11:24] <TJ1> eth1 has a bunch of stuff next to it
[11:24] <TJ1> Broadcom 4306
[11:24] <bruenig> TJ1, ok so it is eth1
[11:24] <w8tah> ladydoor: yes
[11:24] <ladydoor> w8tah: okay, what is the output of cat .bashrc |grep PS1
[11:24] <ladydoor> ?
[11:24] <TJ1> yes  eth1 sounds like the wired connection
[11:24] <bruenig> TJ1, do iwlist eth1 scan, and see if it picks up any access points
[11:24] <BaD_CrC> bruenig: i have an intel gigabit ethernet port on my mobo and it shows as eth0 and i have a dlink wireless card on the same board as wlan0. both are bridged for a little boost in speed for transferring stuff across my gigabit lan.
[11:24] <bruenig> TJ1, eth1 is the wireless connection
[11:24] <TJ1> ok
[11:24] <Cubey> Jowi, i finally got it. however i don't think it made any differnce disabling the ones i didn't need
[11:25] <bruenig> TJ1, eth0 says there is no wireless stuff on it, that is how you know
[11:25] <P-K> is the ubuntu.beryl-project.org still working?
[11:25] <abhorred> bruenig: Thanks for sending me there, didn't totally fix me up but they gave me good advice
[11:25] <TJ1> how do i get it to find my wireless router?
[11:25] <Roundy_T1> My sound works, but i don't have any control over the levels....any ideas?
[11:25] <w8tah> ladydoor: no such file or directory
[11:25] <abhorred> Everyone have a wonderful day
[11:25] <BaD_CrC> odd
[11:25] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, ok so you are affirming my point
[11:25] <TJ1> ?
[11:25] <ladydoor> w8tah: are you in your home dir? if not, do cat ~/.bashrc|grep PS1
[11:25] <akari> danya__: May I kindly redirect you to; http://winehq.org/site/download-deb
[11:26] <bruenig> TJ1, do "iwlist eth1 scan" in terminal
[11:26] <bruenig> TJ1, see if it picks anything up
[11:26] <ladydoor> w8tah: If you don't have a .bashrc, we'll just get you one started real quick.
[11:26] <BaD_CrC> hmm, i have a ath0 and wifi0 as well. don't know where those came from.
[11:26] <w8tah> ladydoor: ok
[11:26] <TJ1> rth1 says No scan results
[11:26] <bruenig> BaD_CrC, different cards, atheros is ath0 I believe
[11:26] <FallingCow> I haven't been able to find on the ubuntu website minimum/recommended machine specs to put ubuntu on. Does anyone know (about) what they are?
[11:26] <BaD_CrC> atheros is wlan0
[11:26] <TJ1> eth1 says no scan results
[11:27] <Archoniam> Told yeh!!! Look the crap back to my last mesage -.-
[11:27] <bruenig> FallingCow, 256 MB of ram, 2 gigs of disk space
[11:27] <Archoniam> message*
[11:27] <ladydoor> w8tah: this line should get you a color prompt, if nothing else: PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\[\033[01;32m\] \u\[\033[01;34m\] @\h:\[\033[01;31m\] \w\[\033\] \$ '
[11:27] <bruenig> TJ1, so it doesn't see any access points
[11:27] <w8tah> ladydoor: ok -one moment
[11:27] <ladydoor> w8tah: okay.
[11:27] <TJ1> no wireless points, it doesnt apprear that way
[11:28] <FallingCow> bruenig: thanks
[11:28] <dyrne> FallingCow: this has more to do with what you are running ontop of the base install. ubuntu by default uses gnome which i dont like with less than 512 ram. xubuntu though id consider usable with 128 or 256. then  fluxbox on ubuntu 64 or above
[11:28] <rolfen> anyone knows about a german-english translation utility for linux?
[11:28] <BaD_CrC> grrr, the gnome bar crashed
[11:28] <chattr> hi
[11:28] <BaD_CrC> let's see if it will recover my systray icons
[11:28] <w8tah> ladydoor where does .bashrc go in the home folder?
[11:28] <BaD_CrC> 90% of the time it doesn't
[11:28] <Cubey> Jowi, could it possibley be a swap issue?
[11:29] <ladydoor> w8tah: I also find it useful to add the lines (without the outermost quotes) "eval "`dircolors -b $HOME/.colordb`" and "alias ls='ls -h --color=auto'"
[11:29] <tupa> I get that error compiling a driver, what packages do I need:       error: linux/config.h:
[11:29] <ladydoor> w8tah: it's its own file.
[11:29] <dyrne> BaD_CrC: pkill gnome-panel; nohup gnome-panel&
[11:29] <tupa> it says the file doesn't exist
[11:29] <danya__> akari : I cant seem to add those repos to the source list !
[11:29] <w8tah> i found it -- i was in /var/log when i looked for it b4
[11:29] <w8tah> sorry
[11:29] <bruenig> tupa, kernel headers maybe
[11:29] <ladydoor> w8tah: no worries :-)
[11:29] <FallingCow> dyrne: thanks, I'll likely be running fluxbox, or maybe xfce
[11:29] <Archoniam> LOL!
[11:30] <danya__> akari : I've tried also another site ..
[11:30] <akari> danya__: sudo vi /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[11:30] <bruenig> vim*
[11:30] <akari> If you cannot edit the file you forgot to sudo the editor
[11:30] <ladydoor> w8tah: sweet. So you might just want to look through your file and edit it some. I believe that in vim there's some feature to enable. If you run the command vimtutor, it's somewhere in there
[11:30] <BaD_CrC> impatient people don't deserve help.
[11:31] <w8tah> ladydoor: will do -- looking at it now
[11:31] <bruenig> !ot | Archoniam
[11:31] <ubotu> Archoniam: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:31] <chattr> does other distributions use commands like "sudo" too?
[11:31] <BaD_CrC> i didn't get help here by being impatient
[11:31] <abhorred> chattr: Other distributions allow you to login as Root :P
[11:31] <bruenig> chattr, sudo is a separate program, you can install and use it on any distro
[11:31] <chattr> true
[11:31] <chattr> ah okay
[11:31] <akari> I successfully suppressed my impatience and got no help - but found it out myself ^.^
[11:31] <chattr> i used before mandrake
[11:31] <BaD_CrC> if you really must, "sudo su -"
[11:31] <tupa> bruenig how is the package named? I installed linux-headers-generic, but no luck
[11:32] <abhorred> I came from Slackware
[11:32] <chattr> but now i took ubuntu and got a "shock" lol
[11:32] <bruenig> !find linux-headers
[11:32] <ubotu> Found: linux-headers-2.6.20-15, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-386, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-generic, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-lowlatency, linux-headers-2.6.20-15-server (and 14 others)
[11:32] <TJ1> so no other suggestions (not trying to sound impatient)  :)
[11:32] <abhorred> But alas, I can get people to actually like Ubuntu
[11:32] <bruenig> tupa, sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
[11:32] <awsoonn> How shoudl i start going about settign up a Dial up connection in Ubuntu?
[11:32] <tupa> bruenig that's what I installed
[11:32] <chattr> sometime when i want to compile a program with ./configure etc i get an error message
[11:33] <tupa> let me paste the error
[11:33] <danya__> akari : .. the command u gave me what do they do ?
[11:33] <chattr> what can be the problem for?
[11:33] <tupa> in debian compiles fine, so I guess ubuntu would be fine too bruenig
[11:33] <akari> danya__: Start vi editor with root access
[11:33] <dyrne> chattr: the first thing you need is build-essential package
[11:33] <bruenig> sudo is generally more useful as a means of circumventing passwords, for instance wifi-radar requires root but it is annoying to type it each time when you are roaming, so you just set a sudo exception and all is good
[11:33] <danya__> akari : would u be telling this to a one week new user :P?
[11:33] <chattr> dyrne and i get this where?
[11:34] <Sivik> Flannel: thanks
[11:34] <dyrne> chattr: your package manager
[11:34] <soothsayer> By default on ubuntu-server is it safe to open UDP 123 for NTP?
[11:34] <Archoniam> bruenig: lolol....that was about the question i asked, which is not off topic. God, takin' everything the wrong way, making everyone think i'm a dumb#$@ becouse i LOL about talking to 1,125 brick wallk.
[11:34] <tupa> bruenig : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/30488/
[11:34] <Archoniam> walls*
[11:34] <Archoniam> 1,126*
[11:34] <Syncro> umm, i need help with my ET sound (No sound)
[11:34] <panfist> hi, i installed xubuntu onto my laptop, then when i tried to install ati drivers according to this guide http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide and when I boot, x fails to start
[11:34] <akari> danya__: We offer help on a case by case basis, we do not offer introductory courses ^.^
[11:34] <w8tah> ladydoor: how do i run the vimtutor comamnd -- all ive ever done with vim is edit text files and confs
[11:34] <chattr> Dyrne okay i will check it then thx
[11:34] <dyrne> chattr: having to compile something is pretty rare in ubuntu though. there are alot of packages
[11:34] <tupa> as you can see in line 35, linux headers are installed
[11:34] <Archoniam> panfist: Go to #xubuntu for that.
[11:35] <bruenig> Archoniam, this is a volunteer channel, we may not know the answer or may intentionally keep it from you for being a jackass, stop complaining, none of us are paid
[11:35] <ladydoor> w8tah: Oh, okay. Just type "vimtutor" at the command prompt.
[11:35] <w8tah> in vim or at the normal command line?
[11:35] <ladydoor> w8tah: it contains handy tips for using vim, but there is a lot of it.
[11:35] <chattr> dyrne so i dont need to?
[11:35] <ladydoor> w8tah: normal.
[11:35] <x_> hello everybody :-)
[11:35] <w8tah> DOH -- sorry i was trying in vim
[11:35] <Syncro> hello
[11:35] <GNUtoo> hello,what's the name of the printer manager in ubuntu?(the thing that apears when you print something and where you can change the printer queue and similar)
[11:35] <w8tah> my brain is mush tonight
[11:35] <x_> i need some help about Bryl
[11:35] <dyrne> chattr: sometimes you might want to. but rarely need to. always search the synaptic package manager first
[11:35] <BaD_CrC> talk nerdy to me
[11:36] <BaD_CrC> :)
[11:36] <Syncro> What is it x_
[11:36] <akari> GNUtoo: The printer manager is CUPS and the tool you're refering to is most likely evince
[11:36] <GNUtoo> akari, thanks
[11:36] <x_> SYN.... how i can get glass desktop during rotating Cube ?!
[11:36] <ladydoor> w8tah: Sorry, I'm not actually super-familiar with vim, so that's honestly as far as I can get you.
[11:36] <Syncro> Glass desktop?
[11:36] <akari> x_: #ubuntu-effects for questions about beryl :)
[11:36] <Syncro> ohhh
[11:36] <Syncro> Like see through
[11:36] <chattr> dyrne srry for my questions i m new in ubuntu  so what about this "synamtic package manager"
[11:36] <x_> what ?!
[11:37] <w8tah> ladydoor: no worries -- ive used it a lot in gentoo - -but only for text editing -- i know it can do tons -- just never bothered to learn it all
[11:37] <myheartfordebian> chattr: Just the greatest thing ever
[11:37] <Music_Shuffle> !synaptic | chattr
[11:37] <ubotu> chattr: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[11:37] <BaD_CrC> Ask A Ninja has all the answers
[11:37] <Syncro> All right well i understand
[11:37] <Syncro> Hold on
[11:37] <dyrne> chattr: it is basically a front end to apt-get
[11:37] <x_> if i can find out so why i should asking here ?! :-(
[11:38] <chattr> hm i used always: sudo aptitude
[11:38] <ladydoor> w8tah: I mean, it's good to know the basics.
[11:38] <chattr> so its the same then or?
[11:38] <Syncro> ok
[11:38] <w8tah> agreed - thanks again
[11:38] <Syncro> x_
[11:38] <bust3d> http://youtube.com/watch?v=_9oPwjN3AmA&mode=related&search=
[11:38] <bust3d> HILARIOUS
[11:38] <Syncro> You have Beryl running
[11:38] <dyrne> chattr: pretty much. you can use aptitude or apt-get or synaptic for gui goodness
[11:38] <Syncro> Open the manager
[11:38] <TJ1> hey  whats weird is that my router sees the wireless laptop
[11:38] <BaD_CrC> eww aptitude was like the first thing i messed with back in the 1.2.13 days of debian.
[11:38] <BaD_CrC> never again
[11:38] <x_> SYN... yeah ?!
[11:38] <TJ1> and it has an ip address on the routers config page
[11:39] <chattr> dyrne ah ok nice

[11:39] <x_> UBUNTU-EFFECTS is empty :-(
[11:39] <Syncro> then click Transperancy Cube
[11:39] <Syncro> And check it
[11:39] <Archoniam> /leave
[11:39] <Marlene> yup im new to linux in general how do i set up my connection to my home net
[11:40] <Syncro> It should work
[11:40] <bruenig> what an idiot
[11:40] <x_> SYN ... thanks ... let me try   :-)
[11:40] <TJ1> and it has the dns server # and my cable domain name there too
[11:40] <Syncro> Alright
[11:40] <ladydoor> w8tah: np.
[11:40] <wepeel> hi all, whe I log in, I keep getting a message that the file .dmrc in my $HOME directory isn't owned by me etc...anyone familiar with this and can help me?
[11:41] <TJ1> but under the host tab on the laptop it says local host ip address is <IP_ADDRESS>
[11:41] <NETWizz> Anybody know where to find himem.sys
[11:41] <NETWizz> for msdos 6.22
[11:41] <ompaul> NETWizz, ask in ##windows
[11:41] <akari> wepeel: sudo chown <yourname>:<yourname> *.dmrc
[11:41] <bruenig> wepeel, you need to do ctrl + alt + f1 to get to a virtual console, and then login and do sudo chown username:username -R /home/username
[11:41] <BaD_CrC> NETWizz: http://opendos.org/
[11:41] <BaD_CrC> or http://freedos.com/
[11:42] <TJ1> hmmm so no one can help me?  i dont know if I missed the reply before
[11:42] <bruenig> wepeel, then ctrl + alt + f7 to get back to login
[11:42] <leon_pegg_> my ubuntu desktop http://boxstor.com/image/laptop-003.png hoe cool
[11:42] <x_> SYN ... thanks friend   :-) that worked   :-D
[11:42] <Syncro> Haha, no prob
[11:42] <bruenig> TJ1, has iwlist eth1 scan produced anything for you yet?
[11:42] <x_> SYN ... how sometimes your ID is yello ?!
[11:42] <Syncro> I have no idea
[11:42] <akari> x_: Always yellow with your name in the line
[11:42] <Syncro> Its gray for me
[11:42] <wepeel> bruenig: do I have to log out now and then log back in?
[11:42] <x_> AKAR.. yeah ... but how ?!
[11:43] <akari> x_
[11:43] <Syncro> Or its probably becuase im partly color bind
[11:43] <Syncro> blind*
[11:43] <Syncro> hahaha
[11:43] <bruenig> wepeel, no just switch to the ctrl + alt + f7 and login normally
[11:43] <x_> :-o
[11:43] <TJ1> no  eth1 says No scan results
[11:43] <Sivik> fwhat kind of card TJ1?
[11:43] <Syncro> Anyway, i need help with Enemy Territory cause i have No Sound
[11:43] <x_> akari ... if i wanna write 2 u with yellow what should i do ?!
[11:43] <Marlene> like i said im new to linux so if someone could give alittle help as to how to get the connection to my network to work i would apreciate it
[11:43] <BaD_CrC> why does my taskbar show a "Launching HTTP Cache Cleaner" like every 30 minutes? I don't see a cron job for it.
[11:43] <wepeel> bruenig: right, so If I'm already at f7 I need to log out and then back in for this to work
[11:44] <akari> x_: You just did by writing "akari" in the line
[11:44] <wepeel> brb
[11:44] <akari> FYI: Sun Java Enterprise Studio is incompatible with Beryl :((
[11:44] <TJ1> broadcom
[11:44] <myheartfordebian> I liked the USS Akira class more then Intrepid
[11:44] <apocalyptica> hi
[11:44] <x_> Syncro .... i am new in linux ... ;-)
[11:44] <ladydoor> x_: if you type out the whole nick when "talking" to someone, it draws their attention to it.
[11:44] <ladydoor> x_: which is why it's polite in busy channels to completely type out a nick when responding to someone...it helps them see when someone's saying something. (most irc clients have tab-completion) :-)
[11:44] <Syncro> I am kinda still new at Linux
[11:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Jack_Sparrow: Testing to see if it will highlight my name to myself
[11:45] <Anlar> akari: that is Beryls fault and you can fix it using one command line option to sun studio
[11:45] <BaD_CrC> eww Broadcom chip. Linksys hardware?
[11:45] <Syncro> x_
[11:45] <wepeel> Hurm, no go
[11:45] <x_> i have some problem about screen resolution ... who can help me ?!
[11:45] <Syncro> Oh
[11:45] <akari> Anlar: Which CL?
[11:45] <Syncro> Haha
[11:45] <Syncro> I probably can
[11:45] <TJ1> d link pre-n router
[11:45] <myheartfordebian> x_, I just fixed a problem like that, what's up?
[11:45] <apocalyptica> could someone help me with fglrx and my ati driver?
[11:45] <bruenig> wepeel, I am confused you said you couldn't login because of the error and then asked whether you should log out
[11:45] <bruenig> that threw me
[11:45] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: Where are you at with your networking problem..
[11:45] <wepeel> bruenig: sorry, I'm not beintg precise
[11:46] <x_> i using Nvidia 7900 GTX and i have just 1024 now ... how i can change it to 1680 ?!
[11:46] <wepeel> bruenig,  when I log in, i get a message that $HOME/.dmrc is being ignored
[11:46] <TJ1> what is weird.. the wireless connection worked in Ubuntu running off the cd but not after I install Ubuntu
[11:46] <Syncro> Whateves, i need help with Enemy Territory if someone out there knows how to fix the sound cause there in none what so ever
[11:46] <Marlene> ive got it connected but it will not alow me to browse
[11:46] <Anlar> akari: add AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit in front of the command.. like with netbeans it's "AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit netbeans"
[11:46] <sidenet> can someone help me with my wireless card?
[11:46] <wepeel> bruenig, and I'm supposed to chmod 644 that file, which I did
[11:46] <apocalyptica> i have a new ati card but fglrx still isnt working, i am running feisty
[11:46] <Anlar> akari: sun studio is just netbeans that is rebranded
[11:46] <NETWizz> Um
[11:46] <akari> x_: For non-standard resolution you need to edit your xorg.conf file and add it there
[11:46] <NETWizz> That is molested Windows
[11:46] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: What type of netwrork card do you have
[11:46] <wepeel> bruenig, also, my $HOME permissions are all screwed up
[11:46] <bruenig> wepeel, ok, well what does ls -l ~/.dmrc show you for ownership and permissions
[11:46] <bruenig> wepeel, did you use sudo for graphical apps?
[11:47] <NETWizz> Why would someone molest windows to make it look like ubuntu
[11:47] <x_> akari ... i'm not pro ... can u tell me what can i do ?!
[11:47] <Marlene> i dont know off the top of my head and im not by my machine
[11:47] <sidenet> .j #ubuntu-device
[11:47] <sidenet> woops
[11:47] <wepeel> bruenig, -rw-r--r-- 1 username username
[11:47] <x_> akari  ... my Nvidia card is active now in restricted hardware
[11:47] <wepeel> bruenig, sudo for graphical apps?
[11:47] <Marlene> im sure its just your standard network easy ethernet card
[11:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: In order to help us help you, we need to know as much as possible about your hardware, wired, wireless, cable, dsl, router, version of ubuntu..
[11:48] <BaD_CrC> blah, i'll be back.
[11:48] <akari> Anlar: Trying... thanks in advance
[11:48] <bruenig> wepeel, that is what generally causes these problems, unless you just went crazy on permissions yourself chowning stuff
[11:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: There is no such thing
[11:49] <wepeel> bruenig: that latter I might have done trying to restrict other users access to my files. How can I restore all the correct permissions to my home folder (defaults)?
[11:49] <akari> x_: Type "sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and look at the bottom. You will see... :)
[11:49] <Marlene> aight i have a cisco bridge going to a smc router then i have a cable coming out of the router to the machine
[11:49] <NETWizz> There is a school district in Texas running Ubuntu
[11:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: Sorry, not trying to be cute or curt...
[11:49] <akari> x_: I had to add my 1440x900, too
[11:49] <bruenig> wepeel, you just have to change them yourself, there is no restore to default permissions
[11:49] <winowerproblems> my user settings window opens but then freezes and no users show up does anybody have and suggestions in order to fix it??
[11:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: Great start, we have a wired system
[11:49] <x_> akari ... and then?!
[11:49] <Marlene> my other machine with ms vista are working
[11:49] <chattr> i installed my php5 but how i configure it and start it then on ubuntu?
[11:49] <Jowi> Marlene, if you can enter an ip address in the browser like <IP_ADDRESS> (you should reach google) then it is a DNS problem.
[11:49] <wepeel> bruenig: ok, so chmod *** -R /home/username?
[11:50] <akari> Anlar: Thanks alot it's working great :)
[11:50] <sidenet> my wireless network card (linksys wmp54g ver. 1) is not working with ubuntu 7.04.  can someone point me in the direction of a tutorial to get it to work?  i've already tried ubuntu forums with no luck.
[11:50] <winowerproblems> ons in order to fix it?
[11:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: Is it internal on a desktop, pcmcia on a laptop, usb off a port..?
[11:50] <bruenig> wepeel, no that is a bad idea because different files require different permissions, for instance any directories you have require 755, but most files will require 644 or lower
[11:50] <akari> Anlar: I cannot program without my cube ^.^
[11:50] <Syncro> Someone call me?
[11:50] <Marlene> off a port on a desktop
[11:50] <Anlar> akari: I guess you can put it into your .bashrc, just export BLAHBLAH="whatever"
[11:51] <Syncro> I got ET sound working
[11:51] <wepeel> bruenig, hurm, can you think of another way to do it other than file by file?
[11:51] <Syncro> WOT
[11:51] <Syncro> WOOT*
[11:51] <akari> Anlar: I just put it in jstudio.sh :)
[11:51] <x_> akari ... that is all : # /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
[11:51] <x_> #
[11:51] <x_> # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using

[11:51] <x_> # (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
[11:51] <x_> #
[11:51] <x_> # This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
[11:51] <bruenig> !ops
[11:51] <Anlar> akari: that's fine as well :)
[11:51] <x_> # if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg

[11:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: So it is a usb network adapter...  so it should be easy to find out the make and model..

[11:51] <x_> # again, run the following command:

[11:51] <chattr> i installed my php5 but how i configure it and start it then on ubuntu?
[11:51] <Syncro> lol x_
[11:51] <winowerproblems> when my user settings window appears, all it does is show a window but no user names, or anything and when i press the x it says something about not responding
[11:52] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: It will probably end up being a broadcom BCM43xx chipset but we still need to check
[11:52] <wepeel> bruenig, what I pasted above rw -r -r is 644, right?
[11:52] <sidenet> Help!
[11:52] <akari> chattr: You type "php <yourscript.php>" if you want to add it to your apache config you just do nothing :)
[11:52] <bruenig> wepeel, you can switch all directories to 755 with one command, find ~ -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \;
[11:52] <bruenig> wepeel, yes
[11:52] <x_> i back ... who shoot me out of chatroom ?!?!?!?!?!?!
[11:53] <sidenet> you were spamming :(
[11:53] <akari> x_: You were spamming
[11:53] <x_> :-o
[11:53] <Jowi> x_, use pastebin (see the topic of the channel)
[11:53] <chattr> akari i want the server to test my local php scripts
[11:53] <InsomniaCity> Hi! can I install a package from something more recent than edgy on an edgy box?
[11:53] <x_> i just did what u said  :-(
[11:53] <bruenig> x_, we'd rather not have an entire xorg.conf pasted
[11:53] <Music_Shuffle> !pastebin | x_
[11:53] <ubotu> x_: pastebin is a service to post large 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 #ubuntu channel topic)
[11:53] <Arso> das boot
[11:53] <LinuxKid> how can  install gmake on ubuntu
[11:53] <Arso> woops, wrong channel ,sorry
[11:53] <winowerproblems> does anybody know how to fix my user settings window it never shows any user names. and i don't know what to do to allow me to change the user settings
[11:53] <ladydoor> !apt-pin
[11:53] <bruenig> InsomniaCity, it is not a good idea
[11:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt-pin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:53] <x_> oh .. ok
[11:53] <wepeel> bruenig, ok, did it. let me log out then log back in and see what it says
[11:53] <akari> chattr: I didn't have to do anything to do so. Just install apache2, php and synaptic should automagically add all necessary (default) configuration
[11:53] <Marlene> aight well like i said im not at my machine, just to clairify i have to manually set the network up, because i know they are taking to eack other the activity light is working
[11:54] <sidenet> !help
[11:54] <chattr> ok
[11:54] <x_> i just have a problem with screen resolution ... that's all :-(

[11:54] <Jowi> InsomniaCity, yes, by compiling the source for example. it is not recommended to install packages for other versions of ubuntu though (conflicts may arise)
[11:54] <wepeel> bruenig, that worked...I think my $HOME was permissioned incorrectly. Thanks for the help!
[11:54] <akari> chattr: Make sure you have apache2, php5 and libapache2-mod-php5 installed
[11:54] <Marlene> x_ just have your auto config the monitor
[11:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: We have great walk throughs depending on your hardware.. it is not a big deal
[11:54] <LinuxKid> how can install gmake on ubuntu
[11:54] <goose> Greetings, Could some one please help me with a Bluetooth issue on ubuntu, could they please pm me, any one?
[11:55] <bruenig> wepeel, really? that doesn't seem like it would have fixed permissions on stuff like .dmrc but if it works it works I guess
[11:55] <Cubey> Jowi, hmmm, now the BIOS is saying the drive linux is on is failing (according to SMART)
[11:55] <ladydoor> InsomniaCity: I believe it's technically possible using apt-pinning if you want to stick with the repositories. If not, you can always compile a package from source.
[11:55] <erUSUL> LinuxKid: gmake == gnumake? is default in linux (some bsd's install gnu make as gmake)
[11:55] <chattr> akari it is installed
[11:55] <wepeel> bruenig, yeah, but my .dmrc was at 644 as I pasted. The $HOME wasn't owned exclusively by this username, apparently
[11:55] <Jowi> Cubey, that does not sound good :/
[11:56] <erUSUL> LinuxKid: just use make
[11:56] <Marlene> where are these walk through located
[11:56] <x_> how ?! my resolution is 1024 now ... 7900 GTX  can come op to 1680 ... but i haven't in menu :-(
[11:56] <LinuxKid> i must compile whit gmake
[11:56] <bruenig> wepeel, I guess that makes sense if $HOME wasn't 755 then you would have some issues for sure
[11:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Marlene: If you do have a BCM43xx chipset here is a useful page... http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[11:56] <wepeel> bruenig, anyway, I'm still a little confused as to how that worked as well. Now all the files look to be permed correctly, and of course all dirs at 755
[11:56] <erUSUL> x_: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:56] <wepeel> bruenig, i THINK THAT WAS THE CASE
[11:56] <wepeel> oops
[11:56] <Marlene> aight thanks i gota jet i got an install
[11:56] <Marlene> lata
[11:56] <goose> Hey, could some one please help me with a bluetooth issue?
[11:56] <x_> erUSUL  ... thanks dude ... i'll check it  :-)
[11:57] <wepeel> bruenig, sometimes I get tab and caps wrong, sorry :)
[11:57] <Jowi> Cubey, backup your home dir and get yourself a new drive (just a recommendation ;))
[11:57] <bruenig> wepeel, well run find ~ -type d, you sill see that it lists all the directories in your home directory recursively, the -exec chmod 755 {} just tell it to to chmod all of that stuff, find is a very good tool
[11:57] <Hrv> hi...im having some problems with my freshly installed ubuntu. When i log in i get a error message saying the gnome settings deamon could not be loaded and a code saying: Process /usr/lib/control-center/gnome-settings-daemon received signal 11
[11:57] <Hrv> does someone know whats its all about
[11:57] <wib> is it possible to configure the behaviour of the window list at all?
[11:57] <wepeel> bruenig, yeah, I've never used find before with -type it's pretty slick
[11:57] <bruenig> wepeel, type f for files
[11:58] <akari> chattr: Surf to http://localhost/ and see if apache works. Then put a test.php file in that www directory: "<php? phpinfo(); ?>" and surf to http://localhost/test.php
[11:58] <Cubey> Jowi, already did backup the important stuff to me, the few emails i got in the past few days. hm. now it's not detecting at all. i guess that's why linux was messing up, the HD was dying.linux sure didn't detect it though
[11:58] <wepeel> bruenig, it's actually a great tip. we have solaris at the office and I can envision using this a lot there. too
[11:58] <n00dle> Has anyone here had hibernate (suspend-to-disk) stop working suddenly?
[11:58] <Nembie563> Can anyone help me install Tor?
[11:59] <Cubey> i guess it just completely died all of a sudden. it's not detecting at all now
[11:59] <chattr> akari yup i saw now
[11:59] <Jowi> Cubey, I tyink there is a smart notifier available...
[11:59] <chattr> it works
[11:59] <ladydoor> Nembie563: I'm pretty sure there's a tor irc channel somewhere or other...you should try checking their website for howtos and contact info.
[11:59] <Jowi> !info smart-notifier
[11:59] <ubotu> smart-notifier: graphical hard disk health status notifier. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.28-1ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 10 kB, installed size 176 kB
[11:59] <bruenig> wepeel, very nice to set uniform permissions recursively without having to worry about the fact that directories require executable perms while files don't, I use it a lot when copying stuff of of my thumbdrive which is fat16 and gives a bunch of weird permissions to files when copied over
[11:59] <chattr> does the server automatically starts on startup of ubuntu?
[12:00] <bruenig> chattr, what server?
[12:00] <akari> o.O I want a graphical hard disk health status notifier!!
[12:00] <wepeel> bruenig, indeed, I generally use chmod recursively then fix whatever I need to based on file type, this is way way easier
[12:00] <chattr> bruenig apache server

[22:53] <MadDowner> Hello all, is there some way to disable the mouse situated between the letters g-h-b on the keyboard of my laptop? I never use it and it gets in the way of typing.
