[12:02] <vox754> ikonia, can you both at least give me some details?
[12:02] <loppa> ikonia, this screens got a widescreen consept, so things look a bit funny in regular resolutions.
[12:03] <ikonia> vox754: he's got a crappy card, with poor compatiably with the via drivers, so he was advised to stick with vesa

[12:05] <vox754> ikonia, you can visit me at #vocx
[12:05] <Hia> following the readme, should I put all the file in that .tar to /usr/lib/codecs ?
[12:05] <mandrill> ikonia: so it is, sorry to have bothered you :) thanks.
[12:06] <ikonia> mandrill: not a problem

[12:07] <Dr_willis> vinboy,  used them under XP.. but never linux.. they are decent webcams under windows.. once ya find the drivers.. heh
[12:07] <loppa> vox754, the card is a VIA UniChrome Pro VN800
[12:07] <ompaul> xenoborg,  /msg ubotu resolution would have made it a private chat between you and the bot and the other makes it a message between the bot and the person - cuts out noise in the channel :)_

[12:17] <turbolover> dapper drake
[12:18] <ikonia> turbolover: have you logged a bug against it
[12:18] <ikonia> updates shouldn't break stuff
[12:18] <ikonia> i guess a kernel update could have broke the ati driver if you're using 3rd party
[12:18] <Jstuts5797> Hello everybody...new here, and new to linux.
[12:18] <akao> first time i loaded up ubuntu on my laptop it downloaded an update using the wireless card that rendered the wireless card useless
[12:18] <turbolover> well al i know is it was working finde then after an update my computer is hella slow and some ati process goes nuts and fglrxinfo now reads mesa even though the install is supposedly fine and my xorg.conf is correct
[12:19] <ikonia> turbolover: log a bug
[12:19] <xenoborg> name: try cat /dev/dsp > file
[12:19] <turbolover> im not sure which update did it

[12:20] <ikonia> !mp3 >name
[12:20] <name> pipe to lame?
[12:20] <name> ikonia: dammit thats not what it's about!
[12:20] <ikonia> name then ask a question properly rather than "I want mp3"
[12:20] <name> 0019 <  xenoborg> name: try cat /dev/dsp > file
[12:21] <name> it was a reponse to that
[12:21] <Jstuts5797> I'm having problems booting the Ubuntu 6.06 Live CD on a older computer......

[12:21] <binzer> hi i giot a problem with my wlan interface on my notebook running edgy. It worked completly after the installation but now I turned Wlan off bei FN key an rebooted the notebook and try to turn it back on with no luck. Any Idea to solve this problem?
[12:21] <Ironman273> If there is instructions to install something in x server would it work for Ubuntu also?
[12:21] <Jstuts5797> where can I find a listing of the hardware requirments?
[12:21] <ikonia> Ironman273: depends
[12:21] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: think its on ubuntu.com
[12:21] <Jstuts5797> hmmm
[12:22] <brohken> hello can someone point me in the right direction of how to install Beryl on Ubuntu with a nvidia 7600gt
[12:22] <Jstuts5797> I"ve been looking there...haven't ran into them yet.
[12:22] <Ironman273> ikonia: specifically instructions to get an INtellimouse Explorer working in Firefox
[12:22] <ikonia> Ironman273: didn't you'd have to install anything for that
[12:22] <turbolover> okay, open source driver or ati's fglrx?
[12:22] <ikonia> ati's
[12:23] <ikonia> but both suck
[12:23] <Ironman273> ikonia: I mean to get all buttons working, including the back and forward buttons
[12:23] <xenoborg> name: mpegrec might work for you
[12:23] <brohken> do i need to install some type of driver for the video card before I install beryl?
[12:23] <Ironman273> ikonia: the instructions are here: http://dotnet.org.za/matt/pages/39097.aspx
[12:23] <ikonia> brohken: depends on your video card
[12:23] <brohken> how would I know?
[12:23] <akao> hey guys, anyone know how to set keyboard bindings?  I've got a tablet pc and there are two buttons on the screen that i'd like to act like the up and down arrows.
[12:24] <ikonia> brohken: whats your video card
[12:24] <brohken> XFX nVidia 7600gt
[12:24] <cjones> what command do you use to get a list of all the channels ?
[12:24] <ikonia> you'll need the nvidia drivers
[12:24] <ikonia> cjones: /list
[12:24] <brohken> is installing them difficult. im a complete linux novice
[12:24] <xenoborg> akao: that's a job for your .Xmodmap
[12:24] <cjones> ikonia thank you
[12:24] <ikonia> !nvidia>brohken
[12:24] <Jstuts5797> Ok...
[12:25] <akao> how do i go about running that xeno? from terminal?
[12:25] <Jstuts5797> another question... this one might be a bit more tricky...
[12:25] <name> xenoborg: whats that?
[12:25] <name> ah ok
[12:25] <cjones> ikonia how do you dis-join a channel
[12:25] <Jstuts5797> my main computer(the one I'm using now) is running winXP sp2.....
[12:25] <lisapc> what does Decentralised tracking mean?
[12:25] <ikonia> cjones: /leave
[12:25] <brohken> and once i do this i can install beryl? how?
[12:25] <cjones> ikonia thanks again
[12:25] <name> mpegrec on Linux is slightly dated and may require porting to newer kernels.
[12:25] <vox754> ikonia, having a hard time? Keep 'em happy.
[12:25] <ikonia> !beryl >brohken
[12:26] <Jstuts5797> I have 2 hard drives.... one for windows and various files and stuff... the other is mostly just mp3's and random files...
[12:26] <ikonia> vox754: nah, its all fine
[12:26] <Alonea> does anyone know why my computer seems to randomly just slow down, and then completely lock up? Almost as if there was a memory leak or something.
[12:26] <Jstuts5797> can I add a third HD, install ubuntu on it and have a dual boot situation with XP on one hd and ubuntu on the other?
[12:26] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: yes
[12:26] <eobanb> absolutely.
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> wow ok...
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> now this would be completely new and uncharted territory for me... what kind of difficulty am I looking at?
[12:27] <Dr_willis> Jstuts5797,  of course... :)
[12:27] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: 2 out of 10
[12:27] <Dr_willis> Jstuts5797,  i got 7 hd's :)
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> oh wow
[12:27] <Jstuts5797> ok
[12:27] <Dr_willis> i thinkingusing a 2nd hd makes it easier.
[12:28] <gaspipe1> hey people
[12:28] <name> cat /dev/dsp | lame - demo.mp3 produces noise
[12:28] <gaspipe1> quick q for serpentine
[12:28] <akao> hi gas
[12:28] <xu> does anyone have problems with their VLC?
[12:28] <Jstuts5797> ok so once I get the 3rd hard drive in(the one I want ubuntu to install on) how can I actually use the live boot cd to install ubuntu on THAT hard drive and not my default C drive?
[12:28] <ikonia> xu:  no
[12:28] <gaspipe1> if i have a cd of mp3's on my hdd and wish to burn it to a blank
[12:28] <ikonia> Jstuts5797: corrext
[12:28] <ikonia> correct
[12:28] <gaspipe1> akao: hey
[12:29] <brohken> ikonia, I have a maybe stupid question. my friend said he has the same card as I do. except it's a 6800xt. he told me that he didn't install drivers at all and it worked in edgy
[12:29] <brohken> does that make sense?
[12:29] <shoumik> hey i'm having some trouble with my brand new iPod shuffle. I plugged it in through mu USB port and floola isn't recognizing it. What could i do?
[12:29] <ikonia> brohken: he's wrong
[12:29] <gaspipe1> i loaded the filelist.... does serp burn it as a cd (for stereo) or does it save (burn) as an mp3?
[12:29] <bulmer> Jstuts5797: select thethird drive
[12:29] <Jstuts5797> Is there a guide somewhere online that can kind of take me through the process of getting ubuntu installed on the 3rd hard drive?
[12:29] <ikonia> !dualboot >jstuts5797
[12:30] <Jstuts5797> sweet... thank you
[12:30] <GenNMX> Dammit, now my system is freezing during the fsck process
[12:30] <MybEvil_> Can someone give me an example of what a .sh file would look like to compile *.java?
[12:30] <bulmer> Jstuts5797: select thethird drive
[12:30] <shoumik> hey i'm having some trouble with my brand new iPod shuffle. I plugged it in through mu USB port and floola isn't recognizing it. What could i do?
[12:30] <ikonia> MybEvil_: #!/bin/bash javac$file.java
[12:30] <ikonia> MybEvil_: that should be javac $file.java
[12:31] <gaspipe1> guess it's time for a cd-coaster
[12:31] <gaspipe1> grin
[12:31] <Section32> Hey all
[12:31] <GenNMX> How do I make init skip fsck? It's always given me problems.
[12:31] <Section32> Whats the name of that CPU monitor app that goes in the taskbar?
[12:31] <shoumik> hey i'm having some trouble with my brand new iPod shuffle. I plugged it in through mu USB port and floola isn't recognizing it. What could i do?
[12:31] <Section32> I had to reinstall and forgot what its name is.
[12:32] <ikonia> GenNMX: if its trying to fsck - its because you need it
[12:32] <brohken> ikonia, he confirmed that he just plugged the card in and it worked without him installing any drivers. said he just followed this guide out of the box: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install/Ubuntu/Edgy/nVIDIA
[12:32] <Regner> does any one know a good tutorial/walkthrough for setting up samba ? I am having hard time with the security part of it on ym file server, right now any one can do anything on the samba shares
[12:32] <ikonia> brohken: that tells you to install the nvidia drivers
[12:32] <GenNMX> ikonia: It says "var clean" and just stops there.
[12:32] <brohken> ikonia, does that install the drivers and beryl too? can i just follow that?
[12:33] <ikonia> brohken: I wouldn't follow that guide - but its up to you. Look at 2.2.2. "installing the new nvidia driver" your friend talks rubbish
[12:33] <navazuelo_> w3
[12:33] <Jstuts5797> ok...going to try this out...
[12:33] <Jstuts5797> I should be back in a bit
[12:33] <ubuntu_> hello, was wondering if anyone knows how to mount hda1 in read/write off the live cd (hoary hedgehog), mount -t ntfs -o rw /dev/hda1 /mnt does not allow me to delete files off my disk
[12:33] <ikonia> ubuntu_: cd is read only drivers by default
[12:34] <GenNMX> ikonia: Ah, it was doing a fsck, it just didn't show any progress for some reason...
[12:34] <MeepMeep> ahh thanks ikonia
[12:34] <nomasteryoda> ikonia, no rw with ntfs
[12:34] <ikonia> MeepMeep: for hat ?
[12:34] <nomasteryoda> unless you use the ntfs3g stuff
[12:34] <gyaresu> MeepMeep: You need ntfs-3g
[12:34] <ikonia> nomasteryoda: I know this
[12:34] <nomasteryoda> k
[12:34] <MeepMeep> windows recovery, got a bad .dll causing blue screen on startup
[12:35] <MybEvil_> ikonia, thanks
[12:35] <Night_Owl> ok.. really silly question here..
[12:35] <ikonia> MeepMeep: thats a windows problem
[12:35] <Night_Owl> What exactly is the hostname for? :P
[12:35] <MeepMeep> yeppers was hjoping to remove it via the live cd, have no access any other way at this point
[12:35] <YangYin> does anyone know how i could edit my right mouse click options when on the desktop so i could add a terminal sortcut to the menu?
[12:35] <ikonia> Night_Owl: referencing your machine
[12:35] <ubuntu> se to program in C++?
[12:35] <nomasteryoda> MeepMeep, then i would get the trinity insert security iso, burn to disk and use that to repaire your winders
[12:35] <ikonia> YangYin: thats not available in gnome
[12:35] <nomasteryoda> it has ntfs3g
[12:36] <MeepMeep> thank you kindly :)

[12:37] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:37] <gyaresu> Hey. How come there is no #ubuntu-effects channel?
[12:37] <Dachra> Night_Owl, not sure if I understand the q? but the hostname is the name you give your computer...
[12:37] <jrib> lovloss: pastebin your source code file and tell us the command you are using to compile it
[12:37] <GenNMX> jrib: It's not started.
[12:37] <GenNMX> I need to start X after a failed start.
[12:37] <gyaresu> I'm trying to figure out how to get my window edges back under beryl.

[12:38] <MukiEX-da> In Azureus, the "Open File" button doesn't work. Is this just a linux thing?
[12:38] <jrib> GenNMX: then why did you say "restart" :P   sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start
[12:38] <klinger> Hi. Does anyone know how to find out which repository in my sources.list a given package comes from?
[12:38] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Azureus uses Java. Download and install the latest version of Java from Sun's website. (java.sun.com)
[12:38] <jrib> klinger: apt-cache policy PACKAGE_NAME    may help but it is not the answer to your question
[12:38] <MukiEX-da> GenNMX : I did so.
[12:38] <MukiEX-da> Is there a java option I'm missing then?
[12:38] <brohken> ikonia, much thanks
[12:38] <socialdisorder> can anyone help me with install ALSA drivers?
[12:38] <ikonia> bed tme
[12:39] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Did you also edit azureus script to point to your new installation path of Java?
[12:39] <nblracer> How do i use the "brocken" filter for an update
[12:39] <jrib> socialdisorder: alsa is included in ubuntu

[12:39] <klinger> jrib: that helps alot. thank you
[12:39] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Look on Azureus's wiki for information on how to do so.
[12:39] <MukiEX-da> GenMX : It runs under sun Java just fine.
[12:39] <lovloss> thats a cat, a compile and an error
[12:39] <nblracer> broken
[12:39] <jrib> klinger: g++ new.cc   since it is c++
[12:39] <MukiEX-da> The problem comes from the open button not running Konqueror or Nautilus. The open button WITHIN Azureus.
[12:39] <lovloss> with plus signs?
[12:39] <lovloss> c.c
[12:40] <MukiEX-da> The one that runs explorer when clicked in windows.
[12:40] <lovloss> oh
[12:40] <lovloss> thanks :D
[12:40] <jrib> lovloss: yeah sorry that message to klinger was meant for you:  use g++
[12:40] <socialdisorder> ok that removes the headache, i've been reading about full support for my Creative Audigy 2 card but the external box doesn't work
[12:40] <MukiEX-da> It's a really difficult bug to find any information about. I've checked the Azureus wiki, forums, and all over google. =(
[12:40] <lovloss> gah its from using aCC at school. thanks jrib
[12:40] <GenNMX> MukiEX-da: Yes, but you can have multiple versions of JRE installed at the same time. Azureus is probably using your defined path, which may not be the latest.
[12:40] <GenNMX> *Your main environment's defined path
[12:40] <loppa> I cant get my sound working, how do i check the drivers for that?
[12:41] <MukiEX-da> GeNMX : Just a sec then ;)

[12:45] <MajorPayne> How do I stop KDE from changing my X config.  I have it just the way I like it but I have to restore it when ever I turn my computer on.  I edit xorg.conf myself.  I don't know if it is kde that is changing it, but it might be.
[12:45] <bulmer> YangYin: your path pointing to correct directory?
[12:45] <nblracer> jrib it says when i update, i have one broken packedge on my system , use the "broken" filter to locate it
[12:45] <YangYin> bulmer: yes
[12:45] <YangYin> bulmer: /opt/jdk1.6.0/bin
[12:46] <bulmer> YangYin: go see the inside of the script if it uses same path as yours
[12:46] <Jrabbit> Don't spit a generic message at me
[12:46] <YangYin> bulmer: how do i check out the script.... its a .bin file
[12:46] <Jrabbit> I've scoured all recources priort to comming here
[12:46] <jrib> YangYin: it may be a shell script.  open it witha  text editor and find out
[12:46] <loppa> I need help with my sound, I dont have any. Might be drivers or something. Anybody who can help?
[12:46] <Night_Owl> OK.. *why* can't I install Samba, *or* start it?
[12:46] <MukiEX-da> GeNMX : Tho it is nice that Azureus now loads much faster =3
[12:47] <bulmer> YangYin: are you sure it is binary? not a text file?

[12:49] <MajorPayne> Why does something keep changing my xorg.conf file in Kubuntu?  I edit the file myself but something keeps changing it back.
[12:50] <ompaul> MajorPayne, use "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver.xorg" and it will stick
[12:50] <Night_Owl> So why can't I either install Samba, or start it if it already *is* installed?
[12:50] <bruenig> !samba
[12:50] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[12:50] <tenco> how can i purge all packages which i deinstalled without deleting configuration files?
[12:50] <LordKeiden> i get a kernel panick when i boot my linux install in a virtualized enviroment. how can i set up hardware profiles, like i have in winxp?
[12:50] <bruenig> tenco, purging is by definition deleting configuration files, that is what it does
[12:50] <bulmer> YangYin: worked?
[12:51] <tenco> bruenig: jep. how can i purge all deinstalled packages?
[12:51] <Regner_> ok, so i have samba installed, when i open the folder from my windows machine it does not ask me for a password or anything, how does it know what access to give me ?
[12:51] <ompaul> bruenig,   /msg ubotu resolution would have made it a private chat between you and the bot and the other makes it a message between the bot and the person - cuts out noise in the channel :)
[12:51] <MajorPayne> ompaul: Is that before or after I make the changes myself.  The screen resolution I want is not in the list they offer me.
[12:51] <tenco> bruenig: ...without hunting them all down through aptitude
[12:51] <bruenig> ompaul, ...
[12:51] <ompaul> MajorPayne, don't edit it yourself
[12:51] <snille> !jack

[12:52] <ompaul> bruenig,  and !item > user makes it less noisey :)
[12:52] <bruenig> tenco, you said without deleting configuration files? you cannot purge without deleting configuration files
[12:52] <MajorPayne> ompaul: I have to, the changes I want is not in that list.  I need a 1440x900 screen resolution, but it is not offered in the list given with that command.
[12:52] <bruenig> ompaul, but I thought that people who weren't registered couldn't get the pms
[12:52] <ompaul> bruenig, they can - they can't send that is all
[12:52] <bruenig> ah
[12:52] <sebas_> anyone knows where can i get information about what is in the linux-restricted-modules package?
[12:52] <nblracer> jrib http://pastebin.com/888233
[12:53] <tenco> bruenig: no. _with_. i have deinstalled packages with configuration left that i want to purge
[12:53] <bulmer> ompaul:  where is the default directory for user installed packages? /usr/local/ ?
[12:53] <Night_Owl> bruenig, been looking there.. Synaptic says it's installed but it won't accept a start, stop, *or* install command even from sudo.
[12:53] <ompaul> tenco, sudo apt-get remove --purge package-name   then remove any local config file in the users home directories
[12:53] <bruenig> Night_Owl, I don't know anything about samba outside of typing !samba
[12:53] <bulmer> Night_Owl: what are you looking for?
[12:53] <bruenig> ompaul, I think he wants to purge everything that he has uninstalled, without going through all of them
[12:54] <ompaul> bulmer, no it can be anywhere as they could be admin packages or optional packages
[12:54] <tenco> ompaul: jep. but i dont know all packagenames yet. are there any ways to find them automagically?
[12:54] <LordKeiden> i get a kernel panick when i boot my linux install in a virtualized enviroment. how can i set up hardware profiles, like i have in winxp?
[12:54] <Night_Owl> Trying to get it to run :P
[12:54] <Night_Owl> I found the config file and edited it
[12:54] <jrib> tenco: a combination of dpkg -l, grep, awk, and apt-get/aptitude/dpkg  should work
[12:54] <Night_Owl> And in Dapper, everything was where the documentation said
[12:54] <bulmer> Night_Owl: you need to learn to prefix your responses with a nick..so we know to whom you're responding
[12:54] <ompaul> tenco, ls /var/cache/apt/archives <<<  in there - but it still does not remove the packages you have config files in your home dir
[12:54] <tenco> jrib: hmm. ok. i just thought that there might be some magic aptitude option for that
[12:55] <Night_Owl> But it seems to have been moved and I have no idea what's going on :P
[12:55] <turbolover> okay yay
[12:55] <turbolover> foudn out what the problem was
[12:55] <turbolover> it updated my driver and the newest version no longer supports my card
[12:55] <turbolover> those buggers
[12:55] <Tuumba> !nvidia
[12:55] <ompaul> tenco, apt-get or that cut down version aptitude is magic - just not a miracle worker :)
[12:55] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:55] <Night_Owl> sorry, bulmer.. not used to being in a room this highly populated.
[12:55] <jrib> tenco: you can come up with an aptitude command as well, see the aptitude search docs
[12:55] <LordKeiden> i get a kernel panick when i boot my linux install in a virtualized enviroment. how can i set up hardware profiles, like i have in winxp?
[12:55] <Zilulil> i need help... git doesn't seem to want to work for me
[12:56] <ompaul> !enter > turbolover
[12:56] <jrib> tenco: aptitude purge '~c'    seems to do it, for future reference: http://people.debian.org/~dburrows/aptitude-doc/en/ch02s03.html
[12:57] <tenco> jrib: thanks!
[12:57] <jrib> tenco: wait, I don't know if that actually works... does it?
[12:57] <ericrost> hey all, I need some help getting the livecd running on my new laptop that I bought to convert over to ubuntu
[12:57] <Zilulil> i'm trying to use git for wine... and i got git compiled and installed... and it doesn't work
[12:57] <tenco> jrib: i am trying with search option now
[12:57] <Night_Owl> bulmer, it boils down to this: Synaptic says it's installed, but it's not found somewhere it knows to find it so the start and stop commands won't take.
[12:57] <nblracer> jrib http://pastebin.com/888236
[12:57] <tenco> jrib: looks good
[12:58] <Zilulil> ericrost: what's the problem with the CD?
[12:58] <LordKeiden> ericrost, new as in the last 6 months? or just new to u?
[12:58] <Night_Owl> At least that's my read on it.
[12:58] <ericrost> new as in today
[12:58] <bulmer> Night_Owl: it has an entry in /etc/init.d/ ?
[12:58] <jrib> nblracer: pastebin.com takes a really long time to load
[12:58] <Zilulil> nobody can help me with my wine/git problem?
[12:58] <Izz1> Vodoo 3dfx drivers any ideas where I can find them ?
[12:58] <nblracer> oh i thought it was just me
[12:58] <ericrost> it is running the intel 950 MGA video chipset, on a widescreen lcd
[12:58] <ubernub> lspci identifies my network card but i still am having trouble configuring it
[12:58] <kemp> can anyone tell me how to start Xine with an xmodmap file?
[12:59] <nblracer> thats why i pasted it 2 times, thinking one got corrupt
[12:59] <kemp> with KDE I used this command -  xmodmap /$$HOME/.xmodmap_xine | xine
[12:59] <kemp> with ubuntu I can't get it to work....
[12:59] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Doesn't look like it.. not as such.
[12:59] <vox754> Zilulil, sorry, I don't even know what git is.
[12:59] <Zilulil> ah
[12:59] <Night_Owl> Should I uninstall and reinstall Samba?
[12:59] <Zilulil> i'm trying to get wine
[12:59] <Zilulil> to work with EVE
[12:59] <snille> What is "jack" more then a "rip" program?
[12:59] <LordKeiden> ericrost, what problem are you having?
[12:59] <Zilulil> and it really isnt' cooperating
[12:59] <ericrost> it won't start the X server, it errors with: No Video BIOS modes for chosen depth, I've set it to all available depths (this is booting from the livecd
[12:59] <bulmer> Night_Owl: then you probably dont have it installed?
[01:00] <SpacePuppy> http://www.xfree86.org/4.2.0/xmodmap.1.html
[01:00] <ompaul> kemp, you don't: xmodmap - utility for modifying keymaps and pointer button mappings in X
[01:00] <Night_Owl> bulmer: That would make sense, except Synaptic seems to think otherwise.
[01:00] <SpacePuppy> kemp:  $$  ?
[01:00] <ericrost> I'm on my ubuntu desktop system now, and can't get the lappy past go, so I'll have to type any info you want
[01:00] <ericrost> I also tried the "safe video mode" boot option
[01:00] <Jrabbit> Ok
[01:01] <bulmer> Night_Owl: well..try to install it again?
[01:01] <ericrost> and tried the bootline option of vga=771
[01:01] <vox754> random info: you want to backup? read this http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=287522
[01:01] <Jrabbit> My windows driver is loaded in ndiswrapper works
[01:01] <kemp> ompaul: that command started XIne for me with an homemade key mapped file - xmodmap_xine
[01:01] <Zilulil> hrm... anybody know how to make wine work?
[01:01] <Jrabbit> but it is not displaying in network-admin
[01:01] <johnny2> well..
[01:01] <johnny2> i'm back again
[01:01] <kemp> not sure why it worked with debian-kde and not in ubuntu
[01:01] <kevogod> I am trying to install Ubuntu 6.10 64-bit and when it tries to install it goes into an infinite loop displaying the Ubuntu loading screen in black and white.
[01:01] <ericrost> any ideas which way to go now?
[01:02] <vox754> Jrabbit, come here #ndiswrapper
[01:02] <jrib> nblracer: do you have update-manager or any other package manager open?
[01:02] <ompaul> kemp, well why not ask the folks in #kubuntu about starting a program on starting kde
[01:02] <nblracer> jrib not i know of
[01:02] <johnny2> well.. i switched my minipci card from bcm43xx.. to ipw2100
[01:02] <Night_Owl> bulmer: It wants to remove ubuntu-desktop too.. is that going to be an issue?
[01:02] <johnny2> and still.. no dice
[01:02] <bulmer> ericrost: you're installing? i missed what you said previously
[01:02] <johnny2> iwlist eth2 scan
[01:02] <LordKeiden> ericrost, I had problems with the xserver not starting and locking the system on my 2 month old presarit, amd cpu and nvidia, but i found that a common problem in the newer lappy's is the APIC and the way the kernel tries to talk to it. for me the fix was to add "noapic" to the boot options by pressing f6 at the boot menu of the live cd...
[01:02] <johnny2> no results
[01:03] <jrib> nblracer: ps -ef | grep apt        on pastebin please
[01:03] <johnny2> and networkmanager's list is empty
[01:03] <n3rrd> on a fresh install of Ubuntu, where would all the C header files be hidden? :|
[01:03] <kemp> well, I am not using kde now
[01:03] <johnny2> n3rrd, there aren't any
[01:03] <jrib> n3rrd: /dev/null?
[01:03] <kevogod> Anyone know if there are any issues installing 6.10 with an ATI Radeon x300? The installer jams at the black and white Ubuntu loading screen.
[01:03] <bulmer> Night_Owl: i would not remove ubuntu-desktop..but thats me
[01:03] <johnny2> you have to install them
[01:03] <ericrost> LordKeiden: "-noapic" or just "noapic"?
[01:03] <johnny2> apt-get install build-essentials at the very least
[01:03] <n3rrd> johnny2:  thanks.
[01:03] <ompaul> kemp, well if you were using gnome you could System Preferences Sessions
[01:03] <LordKeiden> ericrost, notice that it is noAPIC, not ACPI. this isnt a powermanagement thing, it is  indeed apic
[01:03] <bulmer> kevogod: try the lower resolution perhaps?
[01:03] <johnny2> or maybe it's build-essential
[01:03] <kevogod> bulmer, I selected VGA.
[01:04] <johnny2> n3rrd, and then specific devel packages for whatever you need
[01:04] <LordKeiden> ericrost, -noapic
[01:04] <kemp> ok, thanks, I'll try that
[01:04] <ericrost> thx I'll try and report back..
[01:04] <johnny2> so.. no wireless is working on this laptop now
[01:04] <johnny2> not a single one
[01:04] <bulmer> kevogod: can your new card do vga?
[01:04] <kevogod> Of course
[01:04] <cruel_dog> Hi, i need help, i wanna know how to enable MIDI (.mid) file playing (i use breezy badger)
[01:04] <johnny2> well between the 3 different cards i've tried.. 2 bcm43xx and 1 ipw2100
[01:04] <kevogod> 6.04 or previous versions never gave a problem during install
[01:04] <johnny2> some people need to leanr how to ujse google..
[01:04] <LordKeiden> ericrost, after install, i had to install the drivers for wifi and nvidia, but it has been dead stable for me.
[01:04] <bulmer> kevogood i dont know, maybe it expect it would only be used for newer stuff
[01:04] <Night_Owl> bulmer: It's not giving me an option to remove it without removing ubuntu-desktop :P
[01:05] <johnny2> and i need to learn to type slower :)

[01:06] <kevogod> bulmer, 6.04, 5.10, and 5.04 all installed fine.
[01:06] <cruel_dog> i cant upgrade
[01:06] <ericrost> LordKeiden: yeah, I figured with drivers it would work, its just getting it into a useable env to install... I wonder if I boot into someone else's (Knoppix) and then try installing if that would fly? (its attempting the boot right now
[01:06] <jrib> GenNMX: google or your manufacturer's website?

[01:07] <bulmer> Night_Owl in your system, you have /etc/samba ?
[01:07] <Zilulil> where does wine install?
[01:07] <Zilulil> i can't find it
[01:08] <ucordes> gyaresu: try #beryl ^^
[01:08] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Mind if I PM you? Might be a lil less confusing.
[01:08] <bulmer> Night_Owl: stay here at the main please
[01:08] <jrib> gyaresu: #ubuntu-effects is still there isn't it?
[01:08] <bulmer> so they can correct me if I advised you wrongly
[01:08] <gyaresu> ucordes: Cheers. Someone might want to change ubotu's message for !beryl then.
[01:08] <LordKeiden> ericrost, maybe use the alternate cd, have the debs with your video drivers on a usb stick, install ubuntu, boot the installed ubuntu into the kernel safe mode, install the video driver debs from the stick?
[01:08] <ucordes> !beryl
[01:08] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects

[01:08] <gyaresu> zackly.
[01:08] <xtknight> GenNMX: look in the manual here http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.com/downloadfile/ContentsFile.aspx?CDSite=SS&CttFileID=262322&CDCttType=UM&ModelType=N&ModelName=242MP&VPath=UM/200503/20050318172557328_BN59-00391D-00EnNT.pdf
[01:09] <Night_Owl> bulmer: .. ok.. And yes it's there.
[01:09] <jrib> nblracer: does it say that after a reboot?
[01:09] <nblracer> yes
[01:09] <ericrost> hmm.. okay, just wget the debs to the stick, then whats the apt-get command to use a local deb?
[01:09] <Night_Owl> bulmer: But all that's in it are the config file and gdbcommands.
[01:09] <nblracer> jrib i keep getting fix broken pack.
[01:09] <ericrost> (I'm most familiar with gentoo/portage, sorry)
[01:09] <agnostic> plz, a good manual for connecting one laptop with one desktop, with a crossover cable. Thanks :)
[01:10] <jrib> nblracer: no, I mean the "unable to get a lock" thing
[01:10] <bulmer> Night_Owl: how did you start samba again?
[01:10] <nblracer> never tryed
[01:10] <jrib> nblracer: try
[01:10] <nblracer> k
[01:10] <Night_Owl> I didn't.
[01:10] <LordKeiden> ericrost, hmmm...not sure, i have always used gdebi...in gnome...
[01:10] <bulmer> Night_Owl: how did you *attempt to start samba again?
[01:11] <nblracer> jrib not to be an ass, but i got to run. Thanks for your time so far
[01:11] <LordKeiden> how does ericrost install a local deb in a terminal?
[01:11] <gyaresu> jrib: No. Join and you'll be the only one.
[01:11] <ericrost> where can i put the deb so apt-get sees it? that's what you do with portage anyhow.. its smart enough to look in its cache and see the package there
[01:12] <LordKeiden> ericrost, way over my head now...i'm a vista refugee
[01:12] <erUSUL> ericrost: try in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[01:12] <gyaresu> jrib: I don't even think #ubuntu-effects is registered, but I'm not an IRC monkey so I don't know.
[01:12] <Arafangion> How do I fix this problem, using hte latest ati drives? Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:13] <r3factored> is there a minimal install image for ubuntu? I want to boot from a usb stick. (1gb)
[01:13] <Arafangion> Ahh, the composite *crap* again.
[01:13] <Night_Owl> bulmer: sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop and just about every reasonable variant I coudl come up with
[01:13] <bulmer> r3factored: only one i know of thats less than 100Meg is DSL
[01:13] <JR302GT> Hello...
[01:13] <dave47> hello
[01:14] <gyaresu> !hi > dave47
[01:14] <JR302GT> Does anyone have any experience with running an America's Army server on Ubuntu?
[01:14] <bulmer> Night_Owl: I dont have samba installed ..and i dont see an entry in /etc/init.d either
[01:14] <jrib> gyaresu: I'm there withh 64 other people atm
[01:14] <r3factored> bulmer: hmmm that sucks. I know gentoo had a little image you could boot and do a network install. DSL is pretty cool in concept though
[01:14] <bulmer> Night_Owl: locate smbd
[01:14] <gyaresu> jrib: Meh! I must be an idiot.
[01:14] <r3factored> bulmer: wait my usb stick is 1gb
[01:14] <LordKeiden> r3factored, have you looked a puppy linux?
[01:15] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Nothing.
[01:15] <dave47> I'm trying to get remote desktop (VNC) to work when not logged in. Posted instructions don't work?
[01:15] <bulmer> r3factored: most are over a gig
[01:15] <r3factored> i want to install ubuntu on my hard drive but im having problems creating a bootable dvd with k3b.
[01:15] <r3factored> i just want something to boot from
[01:15] <bulmer> Night_Owl: that meant its not installed, its smbd that runs as the daemon
[01:15] <bimberi> r3factored: it's possible to put the install CD contents onto a USB stick and install from it ...
[01:16] <r3factored> bimberi: awesome. can i extract that from the dvd as well?
[01:16] <vox754> JR302GT, what is that?
[01:16] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Well I tried installing it with the command that's given here http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 ie the apt-get and it came up saying it couldn't find it
[01:17] <bimberi> r3factored: not sure.  The instructions are here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick
[01:17] <JR302GT> A game, first person shooter....or did you mean what did I say?
[01:17] <r3factored> bimberi: thanks a ton
[01:17] <bimberi> r3factored: np :)
[01:18] <vox754> JR302GT, oh... I just thought the military were going to use Ubuntu on their machines or some crazy thing like that.
[01:18] <JR302GT> vox754:  LOL
[01:18] <bulmer> Night_Owl: with that guide, at which point does it fail?
[01:18] <dave47> Anyone know how to get VNC server to run when not logged in?
[01:18] <turbolover> growl
[01:19] <bulmer> Night_Owl: apt-get install samba ?  this only means your sources dont have it, so include a url that have it
[01:19] <OCgraphikz> can i have some help with tcl and ubuntu?
[01:19] <turbolover> how can something as simple as a driver be so irritating and difficult to do
[01:19] <turbolover> ?
[01:19] <vox754> OCgraphikz, what do you want to know?
[01:19] <bulmer> dave47: come again? you want to start a service but you are not logged in?
[01:19] <zimdba> help: ubuntu 6.10 server install won't install LILO or GRUB.  Where do I start debugging?
[01:19] <turbolover>  and then when it is done right, an update comes along and screws it up
[01:20] <zimdba> can I continue the install and come back to installing LILO later?
[01:20] <turbolover> bye fuckers
[01:20] <Night_Owl> bulmer: Package samba is not available, but is referred to by another package. (etc)
[01:20] <vox754> turbolover, what is that driver?
[01:20] <puff> Anybody familiar with gtkpod?  It's telling me I haven't imported my itunes db, there is nothing in the menus labeled "import".
[01:20] <dave47> Yes, I want to be able to log into my Ubuntu account using VNC from a remote when I'm not already logged onto Ubuntu.
[01:20] <bulmer> turbolover: drivers are easy to do? heck im been trying to learn to code one..am getting stuck all the time :)
[01:21] <vox754> bulmer, that turbolover has been roaming here for months, he'll come back.
[01:21] <tehxed> crimsun: you there?
[01:21] <GenNMX> Great...I don't know what I did, but I broke xinerama.
[01:21] <bulmer> dave47: you have heard of cron? let cron start your ubuntu at certain time...btw can you respond with a nick prefixed
[01:21] <crimsun> tehxed: I'm very busy.
[01:21] <dave47> On FC5 I simply ran "vncserver :1" to do it
[01:22] <JR302GT> If I use Terminal to run the game server, server-bin, it tells me Permission denied.  So if I use sudo it tells me command not found.  What do I have to do to run this game server?
[01:22] <tehxed> crimsun: Sorry then. Just respond when you have a 1 minute
[01:22] <bulmer> dave47 but you are logged on to FC5 when you issue that command
[01:22] <Trixsey> http://justfuckinggoogleit.com/
[01:22] <tehxed> crimsun: You gave me this one line about external.. something or the other a little while ago
[01:22] <bulmer> dave47 maybe I dont understand what you meant by not logged on?
[01:22] <gyaresu> It's tehxed. Hi.
[01:22] <dave47> bulmer: yes. but then I log out and the vncserver ramains running
[01:22] <tehxed> crimsun: To fix my sound. I can't remember it now...
[01:22] <tehxed> gyaresu: Hello!
[01:22] <GionnyBoss> how can I savely remove a kernel module?
[01:23] <GenNMX> X is now ONLY using Clone, even though I have it turned off...
[01:23] <GionnyBoss> I want to remove a kernel module without messing up my system... how can I do?
[01:23] <gyaresu> tehxed: What's the prob maybe I can help?
[01:23] <bulmer> dave47 vncserver remains running unless it is killed..
[01:23] <tehxed> gyaresu: Ehh.. I formatted and re-installed Ubuntu Edgy Eft 6.10
[01:23] <vox754> GionnyBoss, what module, why?
[01:23] <gyaresu> GionnyBoss: 'sudo modprobe -r thing'
[01:23] <bulmer> dave47: perhaps you can start it with nohup
[01:23] <gyaresu> tehxed: Hardcore. Just for practice?
[01:23] <GionnyBoss> the problem is that I installed a driver with make install
[01:23] <nekr0z> Hi all! Can anybody help me find a compose sequence for "LATIN SMALL LETTER G WITH CIRCUMFLEX"?
[01:23] <dave47> bulmer true, but there is no vncserver on Ubuntu. I installed one but it would not give me a desktop.
[01:24] <tehxed> gyaresu: Well I messed around with the video drivers too much and was attempting to get Beryl working
[01:24] <GionnyBoss> if I use modprobe -r , the module still stays there... it's not completely removed, it's just not loaded. I want to completely remove it
[01:24] <gyaresu> tehxed: ah.  Windows wouldn't move. THe window on top was all I could access and the menu (Applications, Places, System)
[01:24] <mrcucumber> I have a pretty urgent problem, it seems the observer I just added isn't well.. observing. I just deployed and it's failing to send out confirmation emails when people sign up, do I have to restart the system somehow for the obeserver to take effect? is their any reson it wouldn't be working?
[01:24] <bulmer> dave47: can you go over what steps you have done?
[01:24] <nekr0z> vox754: Esperanto
[01:24] <tehxed> gyaresu: Going to try again now.
[01:24] <dave47> bulmer I also tried the xined but it is not there either
[01:24] <GionnyBoss> adaptr: it's the same thing with rmmod... then I can load it again with modprobe. I want to remove it completely, so that if I try to "modprobe modname" again, it says "module not found"
[01:25] <lovloss> I want to program with qt3 but apt-cache search qt3 gives me all sorts of stuff
[01:25] <NDPTAL85> Hey all, anyone have any experience with this? http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/overview.html
[01:25] <lovloss> libqt3-headers?
[01:25] <vox754> GionnyBoss, go where you did "make install" but do "sudo make uninstall" many times
[01:25] <adaptr> GionnyBoss: it *will not* say that if it's not loaded
[01:25] <mrcucumber> opps wrong room
[01:25] <dave47> bulmer - I installed vncserver, setup a vnspasswd, created a .vnc/xstartup
[01:25] <bulmer> dave47: can you go over what steps you have done? just to give me an idea of how you started the vncserver and how you attempt to display it remotely
[01:25] <gyaresu> tehxed: Have you used it berfore? I've installed it and updated it a few times to check it's progress and then always end up returning to my simple little fluxbox. Just my preference I reckon.
[01:25] <tehxed> gyaresu:  But first.. I don't know if you recall the issue with my sound ..being in and out. If I'd restart it would go out.. restart again and it would be gone...
[01:25] <tehxed> gyaresu: That's back.
[01:25] <adaptr> GionnyBoss: if you're trying to modprobe a non-existent module - what's the point ?
[01:25] <dave47> bulmer then ran vncserver :1 ... it works, but I get a blank desktop
[01:25] <GionnyBoss> VoX: I tryed it but doesn't seem to work :(
[01:25] <tehxed> gyaresu: Ehh.. I want to try it before I give up on it. =\
[01:26] <gyaresu> tehxed: Right. adn cri-msun told you the 'something something something' command that fixed it...
[01:26] <alican> hey guys
[01:26] <alican> can someone help me find out my system specs in ubuntu?
[01:26] <bulmer> dave47 whats on that .vnc/startup? anything that you started like xchess or gnome-session?
[01:26] <vox754> GionnyBoss, again, which program where you trying to install?
[01:26] <JR302GT> If I use Terminal to run the game server, server-bin, it tells me Permission denied.  So if I use sudo it tells me command not found.  What do I have to do to run this game server?
[01:26] <a5benwillis> I need help with an NSS, PAM, NCP with SSH issue. Im using an NSS/NCP module in my nsswitch.conf file to do a user lookup on an NDS server.
[01:26] <a5benwillis> When I try to log in via SSH the user is found with the NSS module, authenticated via an NCP so module but I still can't log on.
[01:26] <a5benwillis> .
[01:26] <a5benwillis> I see in the /var/auth.log file that the user is successfully authenticated.
[01:26] <a5benwillis> .
[01:26] <a5benwillis> The last message I get in my auth.log is
[01:26] <a5benwillis> -ssd[6995] : debug1: do_pam_account: called
[01:27] <a5benwillis> .
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: Exactly! That's what I'm trying to remember..
[01:27] <a5benwillis> When this happens the ssh client side accepts the password and just sits there.
[01:27] <dave47> bulmer - gnome-session & and xterm &
[01:27] <a5benwillis> .
[01:27] <a5benwillis> Eventually another error is logged in auth.log
[01:27] <a5benwillis> -Fatal: Timeout before authentication for <IP_ADDRESS>
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: And that's why I asked him. but he's busy.. so I'll wait
[01:27] <rp3> ok have printer issues, when I run setup - printers it takes forever to load, it see's the printer on the network, but it doesn't work.  How can I remove that definition so I can reload, with correct drivers as I think this is my issue?
[01:27] <a5benwillis> .
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: Until then.. I have an issue
[01:27] <GionnyBoss> vox754: now it worked... don't know why it didn't work first time with sudo make uninstall
[01:27] <adaptr> !flood | a5benwillis:
[01:27] <ubotu> a5benwillis:: 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 (be sure to give the URL of your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:27] <GionnyBoss> now it worked, thanks :)
[01:27] <bulmer> dave47: and those gave you blank?
[01:27] <alican> can someone help me find out my system specs in ubuntu?
[01:27] <adaptr> !enter | a5benwillis
[01:27] <ubotu> a5benwillis: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[01:27] <vox754> GionnyBoss, thank you for using the channel.
[01:27] <tehxed> gyaresu: fglrxinfo returns: "Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0"."
[01:27] <GionnyBoss> vox754: thank you for helping me ;)
[01:27] <dave47> I once was able to get an undecorated xterm but no menus or desktop
[01:27] <nekr0z> Or just any hint where to search for the list of compose sequences in Ubuntu? I have googled for one list, but it doesn't look completely right, some sequences are wrong...
[01:28] <adaptr> vox754: damn, nobody ever thanked me...
[01:28] <a5benwillis> Just reasking the same question from earlier.....
[01:28] <vox754> adaptr, life is unfair...
[01:28] <adaptr> a5benwillis: that's not a question, it's 7 lines where 1 would suffice
[01:28] <a5benwillis> ok, I'll reask it then.
[01:28] <adaptr> a5benwillis: there is but one currency on IRC, and that's screen space
[01:29] <alican> guys come on can't someone help me find out my system specs?
[01:29] <bulmer> dave47: the last command in that xsetup must be the windows manager
[01:29] <adaptr> alican: did you buy your computer ? surely you know what's in it...
[01:29] <vox754> alican, what do you need to know try "sudo lspci -v"
[01:29] <IndyGunFreak> alican: you don't know them?
[01:29] <dave47> bulmer: I followed the instructions in the ubuntu forum and it crashed the vncserver, the window manager was last ...
[01:29] <adaptr> alican: device viewer in hte system menu
[01:29] <a5benwillis> It was to tough of a question for this chan anyway. Thanks
[01:30] <alican> i can't remember.. and i need the specific model names..
[01:30] <alican> ok thanks
[01:30] <adaptr> a5benwillis: nobody knows, I'm afraid - all you have managed to establish is that you cannot ask it in less than a dozen lines
[01:30] <vox754> Jrabbit, how are things?
[01:30] <dave47> bulmer: I also tried to setup XGM but it wants an xinetd that I don't seem to have either
[01:30] <bulmer> dave47: try again? try with the simple twm ?
[01:30] <adaptr> alican: write them down this time ;-)
[01:30] <a5benwillis> yep, thanks again.
[01:31] <Jrabbit> vox754: not good
[01:31] <dave47> bulmer: I tried twm first ...
[01:31] <Jrabbit> vox754:  I've got it in netwrok-admin
[01:31] <gyaresu> tehxed: http://forums.bsdnexus.com/viewtopic.php?pid=12476 It shows how to search a window log.
[01:31] <dave47> bulmer: it was the default before I created my own xstartup
[01:31] <Jrabbit> vox754:  Not functioning though
[01:31] <bulmer> dave47: what happened using the default?
[01:31] <alican> no good. it doesn't display anything..
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> alican: well, then you;re hit
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> crack the case open and read labels
[01:32] <GionnyBoss> adaptr: if nobody ever thanked you, that really is strange! I can't understand why people don't thank you and other guys here doing a very good job! keep doing this very good work and I hope to get more expert with Linux so I can help users too ;)
[01:32] <alican> yeah i guess. thank you all
[01:32] <JR302GT> Why do I get a "Permission denied" when trying to run a game server?  It's in my user's folder.
[01:32] <dave47> bulmer: black and white checkered screen with no menu, no xterm, just the X cursor.
[01:32] <adaptr> GionnyBoss: now that *is* nice ! thank you , sir
[01:32] <vox754> Jrabbit, I wouldn't pay attention to the graphical interface, but the terminal is important.
[01:32] <IndyGunFreak> i don't worry  much about being thanked
[01:32] <bulmer> dave47 then you can add one item at a time
[01:32] <Tibmol> i have a big problem about xserver it crashed
[01:32] <Night_Owl> bulmer: I'm running out of ideas :/
[01:33] <vox754> adaptr, oh man, how do you feel now...
[01:33] <adaptr> vox754: it's like floating on air, I tell you
[01:33] <dave47> bulmer: how would I add the menus for the desktop?
[01:33] <Tibmol> someone help me ?
[01:33] <t35t0r> have bots been coming into this channel and posting nasty xrl.us links with javascript exploits?
[01:33] <tehxed> gyaresu: What should I be doing with that window log?
[01:33] <Tibmol> there is a problem on xorg.conf
[01:34] <bulmer> dave47 am going to google for one sample..hang on
[01:34] <adaptr> JR302GT: for one thing, if the game server wanted to use low network sockets, your normal user would be prohibited from doing so
[01:34] <Arafangion> Ok, how do I fix this Xlib:  extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[01:34] <dave47> bulmer: lol, been the, done that ...
[01:34] <vox754> Tibmol, spit it, what else?
[01:34] <Arafangion> I have already disabled composite, rebooted, said all my magical incantations, to no avail.
[01:34] <adaptr> Tibmol: not until you tell us what happened, and you can start by reading the x server log
[01:34] <JR302GT> adaptr:  Not sure what low network sockets are, but how do I get around it if that is the case?
[01:34] <ubuntu> eheeeeeeeeeeeeee sTARCRAFT
[01:34] <ubuntu> WORK
[01:34] <adaptr> JR302GT: you can't - start the server as root
[01:35] <Arafangion> I am TRYING to get my ati driver to work with 3d acceleration.
[01:35] <ubuntu> someone test counter strike
[01:35] <Tibmol> and when i restart my pc it didnt start
[01:35] <jrib> ubuntu: check wine's appdb
[01:35] <gyaresu> tehxed: sorry tehxed i was just scrolling back to yesterday...
[01:35] <adaptr> JR302GT: many "server" services need to be run as root regardless
[01:35] <Tibmol> now i see a text based linux :(
[01:35] <vox754> ubuntu, congratulations, just remember games aren't that important in life.
[01:35] <t35t0r> wth is up with this finance nick chaner
[01:35] <adaptr> Tibmol: you still haven't said what the problem is
[01:35] <ubuntu> vox754 ok man
[01:35] <JR302GT> adaptr:  How do I log into root when it's disabled?
[01:35] <gyaresu> tehxed: My window only had from your wireless card problem. The sound comment was from before that.
[01:35] <ubuntu> jrib wine ???
[01:35] <ompaul> !nickspam > etrade
[01:35] <Tibmol> i installed nvidia drvers
[01:36] <Xzenome> Arafangion, I still haven't got my ATI card to work properly after about 2 months, so instead I use a NVidia card.
[01:36] <adaptr> JR302GT: you never "log into root" - you run a program *as* root, with sudo
[01:36] <tehxed> gyaresu: It would be kind of useless for me to do that. I .. formatted, remember?
[01:36] <klinger> Arafangion: did you add 'Load "dri"' to the "Module"-section of your xorg.conf.
[01:36] <jrib> ubuntu: yeah, don't you need wine (or maybe cedega) to run those games?
[01:36] <Tibmol> drivers and xserver crashed i m new on linux
[01:36] <ubuntu> Xzenome: you need to download the latest linux-restricted
[01:36] <ubuntu> jrib ok and what i need to see there?
[01:36] <adaptr> Tibmol: so how do you know the drivers *and* the xserver crashed ? why would it be the drivers ?
[01:36] <Arafangion> klinger: Yes.
[01:36] <etrade> opps
[01:36] <Tibmol> it says there is a problem on xorg.conf file
[01:37] <jrib> ubuntu: see if other people got it to work and how
[01:37] <gyaresu> Anyone have more than 24hrs of log file for this channel? Could you do a 'locate tehxed |grep crim-sun' (minus the hyphen in crim-sun. Just didn't want to bug him)
[01:37] <Arafangion> klinger: I have bitmap, dbe, ddc, dri, extmod, freetype, glx, int10, type1 and vbe
[01:37] <JR302GT> adaptr:  I did try that, not sure if it was done correctly though!  I got into the correct folder and typed sudo ./server-bin and it returns a different error...command not found.
[01:37] <adaptr> Tibmol: run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to re-create the xorg.conf file
[01:37] <Xzenome> ubuntu, I did have the latest linux-restricted at the time.
[01:37] <ubuntu> jrib ok no problem
[01:37] <klinger> Arafangion: ok, then i don't know either
[01:37] <Tibmol> couse i did what the ubuntu official web page says me
[01:37] <Tibmol> !nvidia
[01:37] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:37] <JR302GT> adaptr:  I did that in Terminal.  Is that correct place to be?
[01:38] <adaptr> JR302GT: how would I know ? I don't know what you're trying to run
[01:38] <JR302GT> adaptr:  It's a game server, America's Army.
[01:38] <adaptr> Tibmol: Edgy ? new or older nvidia card ? did you run the xconfig ?
[01:38] <Tibmol> fx5200
[01:38] <Tibmol> 6.06.1
[01:38] <GionnyBoss> how can I remove a kernel module manually? I just noticed that I have a kernel module that I guess I installed some time ago, but I don't remember from where I installed it... so I can't do the "make uninstall" thing...
[01:39] <Tibmol> Close all your applications, then press Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, or restart your computer, to restart the X server. If you see an NVIDIA splashscreen after hitting Ctrl-Alt-Backspace, your drivers are properly installed.
[01:39] <adaptr> JR302GT: never seen it, is it linux native ? don't you need to setup a config before running the server ?
[01:39] <Tibmol> i did this ^^
[01:39] <nekr0z> Ok, I have found that I need either "dead_circumflex" or "asciicircum" key. Can anybody please give a hint which ones those are?
[01:39] <adaptr> Tibmol: and ? did you see the nvidia logo ?
[01:39] <Tibmol> no
[01:39] <Tibmol> x server crashed
[01:39] <Arafangion> Tibmol: Those instructions are incomplete.
[01:39] <n0ize> What would cause an installed version of ubuntu to see my disks in a different order than say the live cd? it's really keeping grub from working at all and booting.
[01:39] <adaptr> Tibmol: what does the x server log say ?
[01:39] <Arafangion> Tibmol: Wait, no they're not.
[01:40] <adaptr> Arafangion: they're *still* useless ? sigh...
[01:40] <Rio> im trying to install ubuntu 6.06 lts, and i get a warning about a corrupt file right after i enter in a username and password for the first login account.  the first warning is file:///cdrom/dists/dapper/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz....how should i go about installing the server?
[01:40] <ubuntu> Xzenome: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=72490
[01:40] <JR302GT> adaptr:  No, it was just unzipped to a folder.  I have had it running on other versions of Linux, but having trouble here.
[01:40] <Arafangion> adaptr: It's more that the ati installer is *CRAP*
[01:40] <davejustdave> anyone know why only one of my speakers is working? they worked fine on windows then installed ubuntu and only right channel has sound i checked the wires and balance
[01:40] <Tibmol> i think i must repair the xorg.conf file
[01:40] <adaptr> JR302GT: did you run it as user there, too ? then strace it and see what happens
[01:40] <nekr0z> Rio: You'd better check if your cd is ok and reburn it if possible.
[01:41] <Hellevator_> davejustdave, just curious, what kind of speakers are they?
[01:41] <Tibmol> can u say me comment on terminal ?
[01:41] <davidgw7> i installed dapper 64 bit becouse it runs more stably on my stem then edgy 32bit but im running into lack of suport for 64 bit apps how do set up 32 emu on this
[01:41] <adaptr> JR302GT: ubuntu is by default a lot less forgiving than other linux distro's, where one tends to do these things as root
[01:41] <davejustdave> jbl that came with my computer (compaq presario )
[01:41] <Rio> nekr0z reburn? damn that would be the 3rd cd.  i even tried to burn it on the lowest speed and i still get the same error
[01:41] <adaptr> Tibmol: you *need* to *read* the *x server log*
[01:41] <JR302GT> adaptr:  I'm sorry, I have no idea what strace is.
[01:41] <adaptr> !strace
[01:41] <ubotu> strace: A system call tracer. In component main, is standard. Version 4.5.14-1ubuntu2 (edgy), package size 92 kB, installed size 248 kB (Only available for alpha amd64 arm armeb hppa i386 ia64 m68k mips mipsel powerpc ppc64 s390 s390x sh sparc)
[01:41] <Tibmol> adaptr: i m new on linux....
[01:41] <nekr0z> Rio: Did you check md5 sum?
[01:41] <JR302GT> I'm a Linux noob.
[01:41] <ubuntu> Xzenome: here is the full completa nvidia http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Edgy#How_to_install_Graphics_Driver_.28NVIDIA.29
[01:42] <Hellevator_> davidgw7, 64 bit should automatically be emulate 32 bit applications already.  try installing 32bit apps and see if they work.
[01:42] <adaptr> Tibmol: tail /var/log/xorg.0.log
[01:42] <ubuntu> they told you how to install i test it and it work.
[01:42] <Rio> nekr0z whats that
[01:42] <justdave> davejustdave: there's a bunch of different sound systems on Linux, I think Ubuntu uses ALSA (don't remember for sure).  Have you tried playing around in alsamixergui?
[01:42] <adaptr> Tibmol: or look at a few more lines with less
[01:42] <davidgw7> ok thanks
[01:42] <Hellevator_> davejustdave, check your sound settings and make sure its set to center and not all the way left or all the way right
[01:42] <nekr0z> Rio: I mean, are you absolutely sure that your cd iso was downloaded without errors?
[01:42] <Rio> nekr0z i checked the verify data in nero, and it checked out okay
[01:42] <Dr_willis> a bunch? oss and alsa is a bunch? :)
[01:42] <Rio> nekr0z well i guess i can give it one more shot... see what happens
[01:42] <Tibmol> adaptr : wait plz i will check but how van i read it on terminal ?
[01:42] <Xzenome> ubuntu, I have Nvidia working flawlessly, it is ATI that doesn't work for me
[01:43] <Tibmol> what is the comment ?
[01:43] <Rio> nekr0z but what are some other options
[01:43] <nekr0z> Rio: Yes, but nero only shows if cd is the same as ISO you have. It doesn't say if ISO itself is OK...
[01:43] <davejustdave> hellevator balance is set as left and right channell they are locked together so should be fine
[01:43] <davidgw7> yeh just installed nvidia drivers here no problem got the spash and all
[01:43] <adaptr> Dr_willis: oss is dead, there is ALSA, JACK, OpenAL, probably others
[01:43] <Rio> nekr0z ahh
[01:44] <adaptr> Tibmol: just do what I said
[01:44] <Alex> Hi dudes. I've got a Sony Vaio here and the function keys don't appear to work - any suggestions where I should look? :)
[01:44] <Tibmol> adaptr : how can i read the log file on console ?
[01:44] <adaptr> !vaio
[01:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vaio - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:44] <Rio> nekr0z how would i verify?  im downloading it from the ubuntu website
[01:44] <davidgw7> did you edit xorg to read nvidia in the device cection?
[01:44] <adaptr> Tibmol: I just told you
[01:44] <Hellevator_> davejustdave, i don't know then.  that was my only guess :-/
[01:44] <davejustdave> tnx hell
[01:44] <nekr0z> You need to calculate MD5 sum of your ISO (don't know how to do it in Windows, sorry), and then check if it's the same as Ubuntu.com says on download page.
[01:44] <adaptr> davidgw7: the nvidia driver installer takes care of all that
[01:44] <ubuntu> Xzenome: in this last web site that i give they say too how to configure
[01:44] <nekr0z> Rio: You need to calculate MD5 sum of your ISO (don't know how to do it in Windows, sorry), and then check if it's the same as Ubuntu.com says on download page.
[01:44] <coreymon77> my sound isnt working
[01:44] <Tibmol> adaptr : write me the comment plz...
[01:45] <adaptr> Tibmol: what comment ? you have gotten plenty of comments here
[01:45] <Dr_willis> theres a few md5sum tools for windows - that give a 'check md5sum' - on the right click menus
[01:45] <Rio> nekr0z okay thanks mang... ill look up how to do it on line....
[01:45] <davidgw7> ah you used the drivers from nvidia's site ok
[01:45] <watson540> Hi I just got this new dual core amd64 laptop, runnig 686 version of ubuntu edgy, i was wondering can i just switch to the smp kernel and it actually use both processors or do i need the 64 bit os for that?
[01:45] <justdave> speaking of usplash, anyone know how to make it work in Parallels?
[01:45] <coreymon77> can anyone help me with ym sound
[01:45] <adaptr> Tibmol: is there something wrong with your IRC client ? scroll back up, look for your own nick, and do what it says
[01:45] <ubuntu_> What should I use to start learning Python?
[01:45] <Hirvinen> watson540: Using an smp kernel is sufficient.
[01:45] <vox754> Alex, I think you can set shortcuts with "gnome-keybinding-properties"
[01:45] <Tibmol> adaptr : just want this ?xxxxxxx? xorg.0.log
[01:46] <cafuegr> ubuntu_: `diveintopython' - which is already installed.
[01:46] <Alex> Thanks vox754
[01:46] <Tibmol> adaptr : what should i type to read it ?
[01:46] <adaptr> Tibmol: I have no clue, sorry
[01:46] <watson540> Hirvinen: thanks for youjr reply i will try that
[01:46] <Tibmol> nonody knows ?
[01:46] <cafuegr> ubuntu_: Open /usr/share/doc/diveintopython/html/toc/index.html in your favourite web browser and enjoy.
[01:47] <tehxed> gyaresu: Anyone respond with a log in the time I was afk?
[01:47] <adaptr> watson540: Edgy does not, actually, have a " 686" version - or an SMP one, for that matter - they are one and the same: "generic"
[01:47] <JR302GT> adaptr:  strace ./server-bin spit out a lot of stuff.  Should I post it here or IM?  I was using root in other versions of Linux.
[01:47] <watson540> adaptr: right, i sturggled on how to word it, in any case im looking for the smp kernelnow
[01:47] <adaptr> JR302GT: if you were using root in other versions of Linux then the best you could do is enable the root account, but I would not normally recommend that - better SUID the server binary
[01:48] <watson540> adaptr: oh i missed all of what you said....
[01:48] <gyaresu> tehxed: no.
[01:48] <Tibmol> vox754 : will u help me about xserver ?
[01:48] <watson540> adaptr: so i still thinking im only running on core though
[01:48] <gyaresu> Anyone got a log for this channel longer than the last 24hrs? Please.
[01:48] <fsbp> hi all
[01:48] <adaptr> watson540: there is no smp kernel - unless you're still running the installer's 386 kernel, you already have an SMP-enabled kernel
[01:48] <ubuntu_> How do I access DiveIntoPython?
[01:48] <watson540> adaptr: even though at boot it looks like it integrates them at one i still get a reported clock speed of 1.8 ghz when it should be x2
[01:48] <Hirvinen> watson540: Although I think as of Edgy there is no separate kernel for SMP and the default kernel supports it.
[01:48] <crazy_bus> I'm using kubuntu but for some reason all gtk apps have rectangles instead of letters.  What should I do?  here is a screenshot http://img135.imageshack.us/my.php?image=numberic4.jpg
[01:48] <Jowi> watson540, the generic kernel is smp capable
[01:48] <Quintin> adaptr: -generic is smp
[01:48] <vox754> Tibmol, what's up?
[01:48] <adaptr> watson540: cat /proc/cpuinfo return one CPU only ?
[01:48] <JR302GT> adaptr:  What is the command for that?
[01:48] <fsbp> hey im having some big troubles cause im a big noob at linux
[01:48] <adaptr> Quintin: -enabled, yes
[01:48] <Quintin> http://daecom.biz/paste/  w00t
[01:49] <adaptr> Quintin: please read everything next time :)
[01:49] <ompaul> gyaresu,  http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/irclogs
[01:49] <watson540> adaptr: nope..nevermind i see it now, duh :)
[01:49] <gyaresu> ompaul: rocking! thanks. tehxed ^^
[01:49] <fsbp> hey my admin tools aren't working, as soon as i open it, it quits after about 20 seconds of trying
[01:50] <fsbp> any suggestions?
[01:50] <vox754> fsbp, what admin tools?
[01:50] <davejustdave> can anyone help me get both channels working for my speakers? worked fine with windows OS now with ubuntu only right works
[01:50] <jrib> fsbp: run them in a terminal and look for meaningful output
[01:50] <Quintin> ompaul: I hope that server is using gzip
[01:50] <fsbp> good idea
[01:50] <Jowi> watson540, "htop" is rather nice. you will see clearly the load on the different cores
[01:50] <Quintin> davejustdave: run alsamixer in a terminal
[01:50] <mqueiros> Is there any tool to easy configure samba on ubuntu ?
[01:50] <fsbp> oh and something else, i have a secured wireless network and its not working at all even when admin tools were working
[01:51] <Quintin> mqueiros: yea.  vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
[01:51] <mqueiros> quintin: ok... other than that one ? :)
[01:51] <ericrost> I came up with a dumb fix to get the livecd working, I plugged a CRT monitor into the second head of the video card, it booted with X mirrored on both heads :)
[01:51] <vox754> d00d, we were just talking about you, how your nick spell backwards is p00p, but you already knew that...
[01:51] <HP> #ubuntu-se
[01:52] <d00d> lol vox754
[01:52] <fsbp> i have a secured wireless network and its not working at all even when admin tools were working
[01:52] <davejustdave> quinton                 running alsamixer ummmm now what ?
[01:52] <HP> #ubuntu-se
[01:52] <adaptr> Jowi: normal top will do fine, too - but htop is nice overall, although it does have one annoying inconsistency (with top - which is death-sentence-worthy on *nix)
[01:52] <Quintin> davejustdave: Look at your settings.. do you have same numbers on left and right for your speaker output?  also, check your speaker cables
[01:53] <fsbp> i have a secured wireless network and its not working at all even when admin tools were working, any help anyone?
[01:53] <Quintin> mqueiros: no.  just edit the conf file.  it's not hard..
[01:53] <Quintin> mqueiros: What do you want, specifically?  I can help you with it perhaps.
[01:53] <vox754> fsbp, what are these admin tools you comment on?
[01:53] <clusty> i am trying to build something from a CVS repository and after I do a autoreconf I get a error message: aclocal:configure.ac:49: warning: macro `AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library

[01:53] <clusty> ideas?
[01:53] <nekr0z> fsbp: Is SSID broadcasted or hidden?
[01:54] <clusty> jrib, sorry
[01:54] <Quintin> clusty: http://daecom.biz/paste/ :D
[01:54] <fsbp> i think they're called administration tools or something next to preferences
[01:54] <ubuntu_> Where do I start in Python?
[01:54] <davejustdave> it is a graphic that shows "master" 00 at 29 then onther thas reads "master" mm at zero
[01:54] <fsbp> they dont work
[01:54] <gaspipe67> .
[01:54] <mqueiros> quintin: Ok... vi will do it... I think I still remember how to config samba. Thanks!
[01:54] <slacher> Hi, I am a new ubuntu user and I have problem making my CD rom drive work. Can anybody help me ?
[01:54] <fsbp> nekr0x: i think its broadcasted
[01:54] <jrib> davejustdave: q raises left, w raises right
[01:55] <Quintin> mqueiros: the other thing is 'SWAT', but you have to use inetd for that (ick)
[01:55] <clusty> there: http://daecom.biz/paste/?q=9
[01:55] <ubuntu_> Anyone?
[01:55] <tehxed> gyaresu: Which day did he tell me? (All days have been a blur for me lately, I've not slept in 2 ..3 days now)
[01:55] <nekr0z> fsbp: I would advise installing network-manager-gnome then and see if it can discover the network.
[01:55] <mqueiros> Quintin: yes... that's it... SWAT... VI will be enough ! :)
[01:56] <clusty> ubuntu: you just do "python"
[01:56] <clusty> :D
[01:56] <slacher> It says "mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist"
[01:56] <Tibmol> adaptr: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:56] <slacher> although I installed ubuntu from a CD; anyone ?
[01:56] <davejustdave> jrib            ok both channels are same  the master mm must be somehting else still only right channell has sound z(yes my cables are plugged in)
[01:56] <fsbp> ok, but add/remove programs wasn't working great either, but ill give it a try
[01:56] <adaptr> Tibmol: and ?
[01:56] <cafuegr> clusty: You're getting automake WARNINGS not ERRORS. Just ignore them.
[01:56] <n3rrd> ls
[01:56] <jrib> ubuntu_: you installed diveintopython package?
[01:56] <Tibmol> adaptr : it worked

[01:57] <timstokman> hey, I am having some trouble getting the nvidia drivers to work, they tend to BSOD after the X11 restart, could someone help me?
[01:57] <cafuegr> ubuntu_: Open /usr/share/doc/diveintopython/html/toc/index.html in your favourite web browser and enjoy.
[01:57] <gyaresu> tehxed: I'm searching now...
[01:57] <Tibmol> adaptr : it is working just i want to share it with you
[01:57] <ardchoille> slacher: Are you sure your cd drive isn't /dev/hdc or /dev/hdd ?
[01:57] <adaptr> timstokman: edgy? nvidia card # ?
[01:57] <clusty> cafuegr: it sais failed with code 1 :D
[01:57] <adaptr> Tibmol: yes, congratulations
[01:57] <timstokman> adaptr: yes
[01:57] <slacher> ardchoille, i have no idea how can i know that ??
[01:57] <timstokman> on edgy
[01:57] <Quintin> ericrost: I have 'janus' (hyperthreading desktop) 'helios' (server) 'sonitus' (music server) 'navigo' (firewall / gateway) 'aros' (fileserver) :)
[01:57] <Tibmol> have good night or what on there :)
[01:58] <vox754> Tibmol, thank me
[01:58] <n0ize> ok boot off live cd, mount / partition of what SHOULD be booting. edit grub. Grub makes no sense of my dirves and doens't list all of them. How can i reconcile a difference between how the installer sees my drives and how they show up when it tries to boot?
[01:58] <jrib> clusty: you have gettext installed?
[01:58] <cafuegr> clusty: Might be as simple as installing a different automake version.
[01:58] <tehxed> gyaresu: wait a minute
[01:58] <tehxed> gyaresu: this is for xubuntu
[01:58] <ericrost> where would be a good place to put that tip for intel 950 GMA's with this chipset, just a forum post? (if X is bombing saying that it can't find a Video BIOS mode for any selected depth
[01:58] <timstokman> gforce 7900 GT
[01:58] <ericrost> I just plugged a CRT monitor into the other head (it was a widescreen LCD on the laptop)
[01:59] <clusty> jrib, yes sir
[01:59] <ardchoille> slacher: cat /etc/fstab
[01:59] <vox754> adaptr, unbelievable, this Tibmol guy didn't thank me...
[01:59] <GenNMX> Grrr, X is not detecting my USB mouse plugged in directly or through the USB share switch
[01:59] <adaptr> vox754: wahahaha u sux0rz, and I r0x0rz - l33t! :)
[02:00] <jrib> clusty: you have libglib2.0-dev?
[02:00] <slacher> thanks, /dev/hdb        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0, it seems to be hdb
[02:00] <tns> Has anyone got Gaim-OTR working in Gaim2.0.0b5 under Edgy?
[02:00] <ardchoille> slacher: Typically, /dev/hda and /dev/hdb are the first and second hard drives.. /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd are the first and second cd/dvd drives.
[02:00] <vox754> ericrost, definitely a forum post.
[02:00] <eck> n0ize: /boot/grub/device.map
[02:00] <ardchoille> slacher: And the system is saying /dev/hdb doesn't exist?
[02:01] <eck> i think there is also a device command in grub
[02:01] <tehxed> gyaresu: Be back in 3 to 5 minutes
[02:01] <megafauna> Hi, where is the startup icon for Beagle?
[02:01] <clusty> jrib: nope :D. just installed it. trying now to see whats the deal
[02:01] <slacher> ardchoille: yes that's right, when I try to run a CD, i got this message mount: special device /dev/hdb does not exist
[02:01] <timstokman> could someone help me with my problem: nvidia drivers on edgy eft with 7900GT BSODS
[02:01] <timstokman> please
[02:02] <GenNMX> ardchoille: /dev/hda is the first IDE master, hdb the slave, /dev/hdc is the second IDE master, hdd the slave. I use Ubuntu and this holds true for me.
[02:02] <n0ize> eck: that gives me 3 drives, in a grub prompt a root (TAB gives me 4. i have 7, one of those ISN"T in a array
[02:02] <nytejade`mb> Is there a way to boot Ubuntu in a "safe mode"
[02:02] <n0ize> and none of the ones listed in the map are the one that is my OS drive.
[02:02] <ardchoille> GenNMX: Yes, that's a better way of saying it.
[02:02] <jrib> nytejade`mb: what do you mean by "safe mode"?  Maybe "recovery mode" which is an option at the grub prompt?
[02:02] <ardchoille> slacher: Is your cd drive plugged in and working?
[02:02] <GenNMX> nytejade`mb: Hit ESC quickly when grub is loading.
[02:02] <eck> n0ize: you might be able to manually add them, but if grub isn't seeing them then you might be out of luck
[02:02] <nytejade`mb> i'm using lilo
[02:03] <nytejade`mb> and getting kernel panic
[02:03] <nytejade`mb> I'm assuming I might need to mount the drive using a live cd or something
[02:03] <slacher> my computer is an Aopen mp945-X, i might be specific
[02:03] <nytejade`mb> Suggestions?
[02:03] <n0ize> odd, cuz my OS drive isn't on an ide controler and showed up as hde while doing the install and shows up as hdm when i boot a live cd
[02:03] <slacher> yes it is working, i installed ubuntu from it, and when i insert a cd, i can hear it working

[02:03] <clusty> :d
[02:03] <clusty> thanx
[02:04] <linuxgoober> can someone tell me what is wrong with my grub configuration? http://pastebin.ca/370991
[02:04] <GenNMX> slacher: Is your CD-ROM drive on the same cable as your hard drive, or does it have its own cable?
[02:04] <ericrost> fyi if anyone's looking for a new budget lappy, circuit city is selling a decent gateway for $700 that's the weird new intel that's in between the celeron and the core duo (dual core, but 1 Meg L2 Cache) 1 Gig DDR2 RAM, 100 Gig 5400 RPM SATA HDD, and the Intel 950 GMA video chipset.. I thought it was a pretty damn good deal
[02:04] <ardchoille> slacher: Insert a cd and type: mount   and see where it's being mounted, if at all.
[02:04] <vox754> ericrost, and it supports Ubuntu right?

[02:05] <ericrost> and its a gorgeous 17" widescreen lcd..
[02:05] <eck> n0ize: that should be fine -- you just need the correct root= option on the kernel line
[02:05] <ubuntu> !mnt
[02:05] <TashKavarish> hi
[02:05] <ubuntu> what was the command for mount
[02:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mnt - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:05] <Arafangion> ericrost: Extra shiny, eh?
[02:05] <scan_> Hello
[02:05] <ericrost> vox754: well, we'll see I guess, if it doesn't it'll support gentoo real soon :)
[02:05] <ubuntu> !mount
[02:05] <TashKavarish> anyone happen to know why changing monitor would make some resolutions dissapear?
[02:05] <slacher> gennmx, well actually they are not connected on cable, but a card that is pluged in the mini itx motherboard, and yes they are on the same card
[02:05] <ericrost> vox754: Ubuntu is installing right now

[02:06] <vox754> ericrost, oh. You better promote sure stuff.
[02:06] <ubuntu> what partition program  i want for mount
[02:06] <n0ize> will try that
[02:06] <eck> the actual device name used by linux is only important to the kernel to load the root filesystem, it doesn't matter to grub whatsoever
[02:06] <ubuntu> sudo mount file.iso where
[02:06] <TashKavarish> this is a 1920x1200 monitor which used to work fine with this, i had a 1440x900 monitor for a while, now putting back the 1920x1200 one the highest res i can pick is 1600x1200
[02:06] <ubuntu> is this was that or no.
[02:06] <nutterpc_> TashKavarish: because the other monitor you are using doesn't support the higher resolutions the previous one you were using did
[02:06] <ericrost> Arafangion: yeah, I'm pretty happy with it, I've got Ubuntu on my desktops (both a few years old so no real issues getting it running

[02:11] <slacher> thank you ardchoille, i will try that. the problem is, the when i open the box, the hdd and cdrom are stuck on the cover, while the motherboard is on the base. And it's only when i close it, that they plug in each other and i cannot control is the plug is correct.

[02:13] <eck> reinstalling grub, that is

[02:14] <The_Belgain> when i try to use it to convert to VBR MP3, it produced MP3 files which report incorrect length and bitrate
[02:14] <The_Belgain> is this a known issue?
[02:14] <ardchoille> scan_: did you run sudo apt-get install -f ?
[02:14] <n0ize> eck: yeah, well i'll be honest with ya, me and grub don't get along very well. just drives me nuts that the installer saw my OS drive as one thing and the live cd sees it as another.

[02:19] <Reuben> Hi had a question regarding dual booting
[02:20] <purem> shoot
[02:20] <ubuntu> .
[02:20] <ubuntu> .
[02:20] <ardchoille> !canonical
[02:20] <Reuben> will be switching from xp to a dual boot with ubuntu edgy
[02:20] <ubotu> Canonical Ltd. is committed to the development, distribution and promotion of open source software products, and to providing tools and support to the open source community. It is the driving force behind the Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Edubuntu Operating Systems. Canonical's website is at http://www.canonical.com/
[02:20] <IndyGunFreak> Reuben: ask your questions on one line, theres so muich traffic, its hard to follow multiple lines
[02:20] <Reuben> how do i make sure both systems can access the same files eg music videos n docs
[02:21] <ardchoille> jrib: Correction, I may remember seeing hot-babe in the canonical or seveas repos, but I  remember it was a repo.
[02:21] <n0ize> Reuben, you should be able to mount your ntfs partitions just find if you use ntfs-3g (if thats in ubuntu)
[02:22] <TashKavarish> this pc was on a 1920x1200 monitor, for a while I had it on a 2nd monitor at 1440x900 instead, now I put back the 1920x1200 monitor but the 1920x1200 res is no longer available (it is still in xorg.conf) how do i get it back ?
[02:22] <ardchoille> jrib: It's a CPU load status meter type app.
[02:22] <purem> efty should be able to read ntfs partitions out of the box
[02:22] <nandovieira> hi... how do I get the UUID from a partition?
[02:22] <purem> although I think they will be read only.
[02:22] <Reuben> alright so i dont need to put all the docs on a separate partition
[02:22] <jrib> ardchoille: I've used it, just curious where the deb was coming from
[02:22] <Zero9983> any movie player can play rm o rmvb file?
[02:22] <eck> nandovieira: vol_id
[02:22] <n0ize> Reuben: if reading is all you want,no
[02:23] <purem> Reuben: to read them no
[02:23] <eck> next time read the man pages
[02:23] <Reuben> last time i had to use knoppix to get past xp security when i tried a dual boot.................i want read/write access to the data
[02:23] <pearism> stupid UUID's and drive order issues! :/
[02:23] <tritium> eck: It wouldn't be clear to him which man page to read, necessarily
[02:24] <eck> then he should use apropos or man -k
[02:24] <n0ize> Reuben: ntfs-3g should do it, you'll have to check if theres a ubuntu package for it.
[02:24] <ardchoille> jrib: Ah, ok
[02:24] <scan_> I don't remember were I did found it but I had problems with it and saw it in the package manger and tried to remove it and I have had this error since
[02:24] <purem> Reuben: then you need to install some libraries that allow you to write to NTFS partitions
[02:24] <eck> i think the help tool comes with a grpahical search tool for the man pages too
[02:24] <purem> i'm not sure what they are off hand, but someone here should know

[02:26] <tritium> Yggdrasil: one of the first linux distros
[02:26] <eck> Reuben: if you want to share data, your best bet is to put it on another computer and use samba, or to create a shared fat partition

[02:28] <SanDayGoDom> I missed that install page /ref
[02:28] <chris> jrib, no real answers
[02:28] <jrib> chris: k, just makling sure you knew of the resource
[02:28] <eck> nandovieira: before or after the kernel mounts /?
[02:29] <bengt_> I've got wlan issues. A netgear usb dongle won't mount on wlan0 .. i've run ndiswrapper and prism2_usb guides, still wlan0 can't be found
[02:29] <chris> jrib, yeah i can get it to start without any problem, but it keeps saying it cant find my serial code, which i cant figure out how to transfer from windows, even with registry edits and stufgfs
[02:29] <vox754> bengt_, it could be named differently, like "eth1"
[02:30] <bengt_> vox754: i've tried them all. only eth0 which is cable is listed
[02:30] <vox754> bengt_, chipset? ndiswrapper version?
[02:30] <eck> if it can mount / then you have to edit /etc/fstab, it if can't mount / you need to change the root= parameter on the grub kernel line
[02:30] <bengt_> vox754: i tried to reinstall ndiswrapper but i'm getting a compilatin error on make which google won't help me with
[02:30] <eck> if you can't tell, change grub to not boot with splash and not suppress kernel messages
[02:31] <eck> you can also just skip the uuid nonsense
[02:31] <bengt_> vox754: it's a ma111 from netgear, ndiswrapper latest stable from sourceforge
[02:32] <Reuben> what is a good crossplatform videocall software for ubuntu
[02:32] <IndyGunFreak> videocall?
[02:32] <Reuben> like skypes videocall
[02:33] <Reuben> voip with webcam
[02:33] <eck> Reuben: if you are on an enterprise network maybe ekiga, otherwise i would honestly just use windows

[02:33] <ubernub> lol
[02:33] <jrib> !root | heydaveTX
[02:33] <ubotu> heydaveTX: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:33] <vox754> bengt_, I assume you have searched the ndiswrapper List for your device, so I don't think I know better than you.
[02:33] <linuxloser_> anyone have experience installing beryl on edgy eft?
[02:33] <eck> skype is also an option
[02:34] <bengt_> vox754: if you mean ndiswrapper -l, than yes. but it only says driver is present, not hw
[02:34] <Reuben> great thanks...should be installing it tonight thanks for the help
[02:34] <scan_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7434/

[02:36] <IndyGunFreak> linuxloser_, what type of video card?
[02:36] <vox754> bengt_, Yep, that's what I mean, follow the suggestions from those guys on the List. You may even try older versions of ndiswrapper.
[02:37] <linuxloser_> ati
[02:37] <ubernub> can anyone help me uninstall ubuntu?
[02:37] <linuxloser_> i ran envy to install it
[02:37] <Reuben> siavash: model?
[02:37] <bengt_> maybe someone can help me with a compilation error in ndiswrapper..? make: *** arch/i386/boot: File or dir not found. Stopping.
[02:37] <siavash> reuben: its wierd because almost all distros work, except ubuntu, the CD wont even load into it
[02:37] <Braille> if you had nvidia i could help you out, sorry matey
[02:37] <linuxloser_> laaaame
[02:37] <SanDayGoDom> guys
[02:37] <siavash> its a fujitsu P series
[02:37] <linuxloser_> ati
[02:37] <IndyGunFreak> yeah, i never got it to work with ATI
[02:37] <SanDayGoDom> I am reading this page
[02:37] <SanDayGoDom> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[02:37] <SanDayGoDom> now where does it say how to intall ubutu from a live cd
[02:38] <eck> siavash: did you try the alternate install cd?
[02:38] <transgress_> anyone know how i add a daap share to rhythmbox?
[02:38] <darkch1ld> what's a good utility for encrypting files?
[02:38] <Reuben> so why not go with another distro? i'm going to install ubuntu coz my wifi works on it
[02:38] <linuxloser_> guess ill just end up using my linux lappy for chatting heh
[02:38] <vox754> ubernub, You don't uninstall it, just install another OS on top of it.
[02:38] <eck> darkch1ld: gpg
[02:38] <Reuben> siavash: exact mdel number
[02:38] <jrib> scan_: can you pastebin the error too?
[02:39] <siavash> A3040 Fujitsu
[02:39] <siavash> Ive installed opensuse, fedora, mandriva
[02:39] <scan_> ok
[02:39] <siavash> i just liked ubuntu the best. Plus i did here wifi is good on it
[02:40] <vox754> siavash, how is mandriva? I'd like to try it. I tried SUSE 10.1, now they are on 10.2 I think.
[02:40] <eck> siavash: you have a bunch of options. alternate install cd is what i would try first, otherwise you can copy the contents ot he ISO onto another partition and use grub to boot off the cd's kernel and load up the cd environment
[02:40] <Reuben> siavash: i got some ideas for my laptop from here http://www.linux-on-laptops.com/fujitsu.html
[02:40] <heydaveTX> here can i find shock wave
[02:40] <nazgul> evening. what is the name of the libgnome debug package on Ubuntu 6.10 ?
[02:41] <siavash> Mandriva is a good, i liked it
[02:41] <IndyGunFreak> shockwave?.. is that even out for Linux
[02:41] <heydaveTX> or how can i install shockwave
[02:41] <eck> afaik there is no shockwave for linux
[02:41] <siavash> i might switch back if i cant get this too work out. Its really wierd though, xubuntu works but not any other ones
[02:41] <siavash> which doesnt make sense
[02:41] <heydaveTX> or flash play
[02:41] <IndyGunFreak> siavash, mandriva is awful
[02:42] <heydaveTX> for  for firefox
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, you can install macromedia flash,is that what you want?..
[02:42] <siavash> Yeah, im pretty much stuck on ubuntu
[02:42] <siavash> I like debian
[02:42] <heydaveTX> yes indygunfreak
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> debian rocks.
[02:42] <heydaveTX> thats what i want
[02:42] <n0ize> call me crazy, but i could have sworn that your hd(a-z) info shouldn't change if you don't move where it's plugged in.
[02:42] <Jstuts5797> Ok.... I got it to work
[02:42] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, hang on
[02:42] <heydaveTX> ok
[02:42] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:42] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo update-flashplugin
[02:42] <lastnode> siavash, likes/dislikes can be discussed in #ubuntu-offtopic, mate. this channel is for support
[02:42] <Jstuts5797> this is....wow....different
[02:43] <vox754> IndyGunFreak, why does Mandriva suck?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> vox754, SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
[02:43] <siavash> Reuben, my laptop isnt on there :(
[02:43] <Jstuts5797> Is there any kind of tour of Ubuntu once you install it?
[02:43] <IndyGunFreak> i read war and peace while loading up opera one time
[02:43] <siavash> All i get when i load the ubuntu install CD is a peach background and a mouse
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> siavash, try doing ctrl+alt+backspace when that happens
[02:44] <nexousNET> How do I setup my WPC54G linksys card up in 6.06?
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> and let it reload gnome
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> siavash,   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[02:44] <john> in metacity, can I bind a global key to a mouse button?
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> that happens to me as well most of the time, but it works if you restart X
[02:44] <siavash> restarting x
[02:44] <heydaveTX> what is the command for flash
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> oops, siavash, that asn't for you
[02:44] <AMD-> sweet Jesus look at what i have just found http://ubuntustudio.com/
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox
[02:44] <IndyGunFreak> follow those instructions
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[02:44] <wikipedia_sucks> sudo update-flashplugin
[02:45] <tomas_> how can i play .asf in ubuntu
[02:45] <siavash> wikipedia_sucks, it restarts x, but same screen
[02:45] <siavash> i obvoiusly didnt have a login, so ubuntu logged me in
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> well, obviously something is wrong
[02:45] <wikipedia_sucks> siavash, do you have a hyperthreading processor?
[02:45] <SanDayGoDom> Ok anyone have a page that will show me how to install ubutu on a windows machine from a live cd and still leave some room for windows?
[02:45] <scan_> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/7436/ thanks for the help!
[02:45] <IndyGunFreak> SanDayGoDom, Google Dual booting
[02:45] <siavash> Anyway to install in text mode of the cd?
[02:45] <wikipedia_sucks> you might just try rebooting the live cd once or twice, and trying to restart X...it works for me just great once it finally loads the live cd
[02:46] <siavash> wikipedia, im not sure what that is. i have amd turion64
[02:46] <TrickFinlay2> can you have an SSL FTP server using ubuntu?
[02:46] <Jstuts5797> wow...this is nice...
[02:46] <Jstuts5797> this is my first time using ubuntu....right now.
[02:46] <transgress_> TrickFinlay2: why not use sftp?
[02:46] <ubernub> im about to uninstall ubuntu
[02:46] <n0ize> HDM (13th drive) when booting from live cd with ide cards, HDE (5th drive) during install/rescue, and HDA (1st drive) with ide cards removed. so if i tell grub that it needs to look on hd(14,0) and the root is /dev/hdm1 life should be peachy till i disconnect my cd drive?
[02:46] <transgress_> ubernub: okay
[02:47] <transgress_> ubernub: have fun with that.
[02:47] <TrickFinlay2> transgress: what would be the difference/advantage?
[02:47] <heydaveTX> i can't find flash plugin
[02:47] <ubernub> yeah, i dont even know how
[02:47] <heydaveTX> help
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> heydaveTX, did you follow the instructions on the link i gave you?
[02:47] <wikipedia_sucks> daveTX, type sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree in the terminal
[02:47] <heydaveTX> not
[02:47] <transgress_> TrickFinlay2: sftp is part of ssh, available by default if you have an ssh server, and it would be on port 22... and by far easier to implement
[02:47] <heydaveTX> no
[02:47] <heydaveTX> i didn't get them
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> well, i gav eyou a link showing you how tod o it
[02:47] <IndyGunFreak> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy#How_to_install_Flash_Player_.28Macromedia_Flash.29_Plug-in_for_Mozilla_Firefox

[02:52] <chairmeleon> hahah :D
[02:52] <vox754> siavash, you need the alternate CD or DVD
[02:52] <lastnode> siavash, alternate cd has text mode
[02:52] <chairmeleon> Gee I must say the climate in this channel is damn much nicer than that of suse's
[02:52] <Eyra> ok. im reading the page right now
[02:52] <elkbuntu> chairmeleon, take a peek in #ubuntu+1
[02:53] <siavash> nice, i will try that
[02:53] <lastnode> siavash, if that disk has OEM, it should have text only mode too
[02:53] <transgress_> ubernub: set up ndiswrapper... get the windows driver for your wifi card, and i'll give you a link on how to do it
[02:53] <lastnode> Eyra, have a read, try it out, and let us know

[02:54] <ubernub> okay, thank you
[02:55] <transgress_> go down to the edgy part if you are running edgy
[02:55] <tehxed> gyaresu:  Did you send me PM?
[02:55] <Arafangion> lufis: Ogle has better support for subtitles.
[02:55] <Hasrat_USA> Spartacus: are you using KDE or GNOME?
[02:55] <lufis> Arafangion: ah
[02:55] <tehxed> gyaresu: ah!
[02:55] <gyaresu> tehxed: nope.
[02:55] <Arafangion> lufis: Also supports more DVD's, somehow more compatible.
[02:55] <flyinflash> why local user couldn't  login?
[02:55] <lufis> Arafangion: oh, ok. i just liked vlc
[02:55] <gyaresu> tehxed: I thought something was wrong. I've posted that about 4 differendt times :)
[02:55] <Spartacus> Hasrat, not sure, but I'd venture a guess at gnome
[02:55] <Arafangion> lufis: So do I :(
[02:55] <Hasrat_USA> lmao
[02:55] <tehxed> gyaresu: Sorry.. =(
[02:56] <Spartacus> Only had Ubuntu for less than a week :(
[02:56] <gyaresu> tehxed: S'aight. Just didn't know _what_ was going on.
[02:56] <Hasrat_USA> okay anyways open up your Add/Remove application and install Java runtime from there
[02:56] <Spartacus> oh, lol
[02:56] <Hasrat_USA> you don't have to download the ones from the site
[02:56] <Spartacus> thanks >.>
[02:57] <Hasrat_USA> i've been running Linux for 2 and half weeks
[02:57] <Xerocide> When I put the CD in the drive and restart my computer it just goes to a black screen, any suggestions?
[02:57] <Hasrat_USA> which CD?
[02:57] <lufis> Xerocide: try the alternate installer
[02:57] <Xerocide> Well, I am just trying to run a live CD.
[02:58] <ubernub> "couldnt find package ndiswrapper"
[02:58] <siavash> im downloading feisty fawn, i noticed that torrent isnt downloading...
[02:58] <siavash> anyone else experience problems with that
[02:58] <TrickFinlay2> siavash just give it time
[02:59] <Spartacus> Xerocide, you mean boot from the CD?
[02:59] <Xerocide> Yes.
[02:59] <lastnode> siavash, which torrent? if you're accidentally getting an old herd, it will be slow, less seeders
[02:59] <lastnode> siavash, is this herd4?
[02:59] <wikipedia_sucks> siavish, how many people are you connected to?
[02:59] <wikipedia_sucks> even the newest herd is slow
[02:59] <Spartacus> Did you go into the boot menu to boot from it?
[02:59] <siavash> lastnode: herd 3
[02:59] <wikipedia_sucks> if you do it via http, it downloads in ~40 minutes
[02:59] <Xerocide> It won't even come up.
[02:59] <Spartacus> the boot menu won't?
[02:59] <Xerocide> Even when I don't have the CD in.
[03:00] <tehxed> gyaresu: afk a bit. going to get some food in me.
[03:00] <Xerocide> Is there a chance I disabled it or something...?
[03:00] <chairmeleon> does anyone here know, if there are ubuntu packages for tcl/tk8.5a and amsn 0.96 compiled against them??
[03:00] <slyfox> I use this program and it has to be run via Terminal:  xtightvncviewer <IP_ADDRESS>      this is the program to remotley connect to windows. Is there any way to make like an executable bin bash or soemthing so that I can click on it and it will do it automatically ?
[03:00] <siavash> wikipedia_sucks: ill try that
[03:00] <Spartacus> Dunno, I was just checking for the only thing I'd know how to help with
[03:00] <almostkorean> hey ive got a question about installing ubuntu on my powerbook
[03:00] <transgress_> ubernub: pm me once you get ndiswrapper kicking.  if you need help installing the drivers or anything let me know
[03:00] <lufis> Xerocide: can you give a step-by-step sequence of what happens? what key do you press, etc.
[03:01] <ubernub> "couldnt find package ndiswrapper"
[03:01] <Xerocide> Well, normally I think it's F10 for the boot menu on my computer, but it hasn't come up recently.
[03:01] <lastnode> siavash, herd 4 is out. id grab that
[03:01] <siavash> i might as well get 4 though
[03:01] <siavash> yeah
[03:01] <lufis> Xerocide: hmm
[03:01] <Hasrat_USA> almostkorean: you want us to guess the question?
[03:01] <almostkorean> haha sorry hold on
[03:01] <almostkorean> umm
[03:01] <siavash> lastnode: is it pretty easy upgrading it?
