[05:37] <hajuu> does anyone know how to set a timeout on cdrom reads? im sick of apps goddamned reading FOREVER endlessly when they read a scratched cd
[05:37] <Toma-> bodaciousb: i c :D there is no 0.16 series enlightenment login manager. only in e17 theres entrance
[05:37] <Toma-> bodaciousb: just stick with gdm

[05:37] <centar> Simple question; How do I disable 'animate whilst minimizing and maximizing'  ?.. I'm usig KDE. Thanks
[05:38] <bodaciousb> Toma-, thanks, ill jsut mess around until i need to reformat or find it
[05:38] <mabus> Where is the python interpreter?
[05:38] !lilo:*! HedgeMage invites freenode users who are parents, grandparents, expecting parents and interested parties to ##parenting , an interest group channel
[05:38] <Toma-> bodaciousb: np. gdm is sort of thin anyway, if thats what youre after?
[05:38] <nickrud> mabus, /usr/bin/python
[05:38] <desrt> a friend and i have both noticed that when performing large disk IO operations under dapper the performance of other applications that access the disk is absolutely awful.  it literally takes 15 seconds to :wq in a vim session, for example, while doing my backups
[05:39] <desrt> this is a regression in dapper vs. breezy, for example
[05:39] <bodaciousb> Toma-, no theres an option to select the desktop enviroment, when the installed enviroment isnt detected by gdm
[05:39] <desrt> does anyone know why this happened or how to fix it?
[05:39] <ThreeFinity> how do I install a .deb file?
[05:39] <Toma-> desrt: #ubuntu+1 thx
[05:39] <bodaciousb> Toma-, so i cant select it at the login screen, i need to do it manually
[05:39] <ti||> HELP! When I'm running gnome-cups-manager, it says "The CUPS system could not be contacted". I can't print!
[05:39] <Toma-> bodaciousb: ahh.
[05:39] <ThreeFinity> is it dpkg -i ?
[05:39] <varsendagger> DrBanzai, do you know what to do if i don't have gnome installed?
[05:39] <ti||> But cupsd is running acc. to ps -ef
[05:39] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, yes, with sudo
[05:40] <rendo> sudo: unable to lookup  via gethostbyname()
[05:40] <rendo>   I am aware of what I have done and looked it up on google but don't understand exactly what I'm supposed to change in the host file (should have made a backup cause I'm an idiot)  Anyone know what I need to do to fix this?
[05:40] <Toma-> bodaciousb: how did you install e?
[05:40] <brandon_> is there a way i can run nautilus in kind of a debugging mode, or at least catch any messages?
[05:40] <bodaciousb> Toma-, an automatic script that retrives it from apt... it was an accident, but something i had planned to do anyway
[05:41] <bodaciousb> Toma-, but im pretty sure it installed ok
[05:41] <nickrud> rendo, you need to edit /etc/hostname , and /etc/hosts; mine is <IP_ADDRESS> localhost.localdomain localhost telemon
[05:41] <nickrud>  ; telemon is also in /etc/hostname
[05:41] <blank> how do you unzip something
[05:41] <blank> gunzip ?
[05:41] <Toma-> brandon_: ~/.xsession-errors will say something
[05:41] <blank> nevermind
[05:41] <Toma-> bodaciousb: not automatix? :/
[05:41] <bodaciousb> Toma-, there is a command to start a utility that lets you select gdm is the default login manager, and it is that i need to find
[05:41] <bodaciousb> Toma-, i jsut cnat rmemeber the command to start it
[05:42] <Toma-> bodaciousb: switchdesk i think
[05:42] <Tylerofl> ugh, loving ubuntu would be so much easier if its font rendering didn't make me want to stab out my eyes
[05:42] <bodaciousb> Toma-, not found
[05:42] <brandon_> Toma- i don't have that file
[05:42] <Toma-> same
[05:42] <nickrud> bodaciousb, sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm  ; if there's alternative display managers registered they'll show up there
[05:42] <Toma-> ahhhhhh yes. 66
[05:42] <Toma-> ^^
[05:43] <rendo> Nickrud so in hostname it should just read ubuntu (computer name)?
[05:43] <cafe> how to burn in k3b mp3 to mp3 output >>
[05:43] <Toma-> brandon_: its hidden..?
[05:43] <bodaciousb> ok iull try that
[05:43] <ThreeFinity> Don't suppose anybody could help me figure out how to setup a sandbox environment to represent an i386 distro eh?
[05:43] <cafe> how to burn in k3b mp3 to mp3 output >> not an audio output
[05:43] <ti||> blank: if it's .zip, then unzip <filename>
[05:43] <nickrud> rendo, yes. also, you'd have the first line of /etc/hosts like mine, but ubuntu instead of telemon
[05:43] <ThreeFinity> cedega won't run on amd64 platforms it seems :/
[05:43] <Toma-> ubotu: tell cafe about mp3
[05:43] <varsendagger> i didn't setup my internet when i instlled a server linux install,    i should ber able to dpkg-reconfigure some package to re connect to the internet
[05:43] <ti||>  blank: if it's .gz then gunzip <filename>
[05:43] <rendo> nickrud Hrm, it's still doing it, I'll try rebooting. :/
[05:44] <blank> yeah nevermind, thanks
[05:44] <Tylerofl> does anyone know how to add more resolutions to the resoultion change utility?
[05:44] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, most people run the i386 version after playing with the amd64. cedega is one reason
[05:44] <ti||> Tylerofl: if you have an Intel chipset, check out 855resolution
[05:44] <bodaciousb> =/
[05:44] <Tylerofl> i have amd
[05:45] <ThreeFinity> nickrud, bah then my amd64's capabilities are wasted
[05:45] <ti||> well, maybe if you google it you'll fing more this way
[05:45] <brandon_> Toma- I mean, is there a way that i can see every little thing nautilus is doing, like maybe a verbose output?
[05:45] <Toma-> what 64 bit capabilities :D
[05:45] <ThreeFinity> plus I'd have to reinstall everything :/ that's a pain
[05:45] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, I don't know of any user os that uses 64 bit capabilities
[05:45] <Toma-> brandon_: you could strace it...?
[05:45] <nickrud> completely, or usably, or somewhat like that :)
[05:46] <zcat[1] > kino failing to import mjpeg clips from my canon A75, any suggestions? details at http://pastebin.com/704624
[05:46] <brandon_> Toma- i'm not familiar with that
[05:46] <ThreeFinity> nickrud,  then what's the point of having a 64bit distro?
[05:46] <rendo> Nickrud Thanks, that's all I was missing, works fine again. *slaps computer*
[05:47] <Toma-> brandon_: 'strace nautilus' then type start
[05:47] <Toma-> zcat[1] : installed w32codecs?
[05:47] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, for people to fix and make better ;P
[05:47] <zcat[1] > yes. and ffmpeg and mencoder
[05:47] <cafe> how to burn in k3b mp3 to mp3 output >> not an audio output
[05:48] <bodhitree> cafe: make a data cd
[05:48] <bodhitree> not an audio cd
[05:48] <nickrud> cafe, you probably need lame
[05:48] <nickrud> cafe, if you're converting mp3's  that is
[05:49] <Toma-> zcat[1] : tried in #ubuntu+1 ? might be a dapper specific bug?
[05:49] <brandon_> Toma- the problem is, it doesn't continue to output after it starts the program, like practically anything else i start in a terminal would. it starts and then gives me a cursor
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> just so I'm clear on this, dapper is the livecd correct?
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> lemme guess....
[05:49] <zcat[1] > hmm.. might be
[05:49] <nickrud> !dapper
[05:49] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> !dapper
[05:49] <Toma-> ThreeFinity: dapper is the next version of ubuntu
[05:49] <ThreeFinity> lol
[05:49] <zcat[1] > trying google too see what I can dig up..
[05:50] <Toma-> brandon_: you dont mean gnome do you? not just nautilus?
[05:50] <ThreeFinity> meh I like my breezy and it's already setup
[05:50] <nickrud> ThreeFinity, the real problem with the 64bit distro, is the people who control the non-free media haven't released usable 64 bit versions
[05:50] <ThreeFinity> I figured #ubuntu+! was just an overflow chan
[05:51] <zcat[1] > nickrud: no doubt that will change after vista is released.. but who wants to wait until 2009 :-)
[05:51] <ThreeFinity> nickrud, that's not a problem lol we're linux users we'll make our own(we is sued as a colelctive term to encapsulate all 64bit linux users worldwide.)
[05:51] <nickrud> zcat[1] , even then, who knows?
[05:52] <brandon_> Toma- what i mean is, if i start a program fromt eh terminal, it won't give me a shell prompt again until i quit the program i started. which is what i want to do with nautilus because i need to check what happens when i do a couple of things. but in nautilus's case, it does give me a shell prompt after the program starts
[05:52] <Toma-> ThreeFinity: 'sued' is that misspelt? :D or saying we will get sued for touching patented formats?
[05:52] <zcat[1] > ThreeFinity: yeah, when the hardware manufacturers give up the specs.
[05:53] <ThreeFinity> *used
[05:53] <ThreeFinity> lol
[05:53] <wendigo> mpeg is the big one, all others are non significant
[05:53] <Toma-> brandon_: you want to start a program from nautilus, but run it froma  terminal?
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> bah
[05:54] <zcat[1] > 'sued' is an appropriate typo in the context of reverse-engineering stuff though
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> they need to hurry up n do it already
[05:54] <nickrud> and drm, I'm almost afraid to think of that being available
[05:54] <brandon_> Toma: nm
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> would bring them so much more buisiness
[05:54] <ThreeFinity> I know even when using windows I always try to buy from linux friendly companies
[05:55] <ThreeFinity> only got a radeon cause it was a gift lol
[05:55] <wendigo> theres only one thing keeping people using windows and thats game support
[05:55] <Toma-> 8nod*
[05:56] <brandon_> slackern?
[05:56] <slackern> brandon_: aye
[05:56] <wendigo> if you could run all the most popular games on linux, windows would become obsolete :)
[05:56] <zcat[1] > nah, lots of things. there's plenty of areas where there isn't a solid, professional app for the job.
[05:56] <ThreeFinity> yeah wendigo
[05:56] <brandon_> ok, here's the juice. i was able to run nautilus from the terminal and catch the output of a mouseover mp3. it says "mpg123: command not found"
[05:56] <awal> testttt
[05:56] <ThreeFinity> hell if you could run photoshop natively on linux alot of people would switch
[05:57] <tritium> there are plenty of corporations who are hanging on to windows, and I assure you it has _nothing_ to do with silly little games
[05:57] <zcat[1] > illiad, for example :)
[05:57] <wendigo> you can run photoshop using wine, or just use gimp for native
[05:57] <Nao> on Daper Drake, is there any way to either create a shortcut to a folder, or just mount a certain folder of an ntfs partition?
[05:57] <ThreeFinity> hmm
[05:57] <nickrud> brandon_, really!? sudo apt-get install mp123 then. (and I'll try that herer)
[05:57] <ThreeFinity> meh photoshop has better features
[05:57] <ThreeFinity> I don't like how gimp handles it's layers
[05:57] <wendigo> Nao: /etc/fstab
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> Anybody have VMWare player?
[05:58] <slackern> brandon_: ohh sweet installed mpg123 and it's working now :)
[05:58] <matthew_w> Here's a quick question:  Why is mplayer not showing up in apt?
[05:58] <Nao> I have VM
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> trying to figure out how to run windows on it
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> it's asking me for a vmx file
[05:58] <zcat[1] > I love gimp but there are things it just cant do that the pro's insist on having.
[05:58] <ThreeFinity> yeah
[05:58] <wendigo> matthew_w: check your /etc/apt-/sources.list
[05:58] <nickrud> matthew_w, it's in a repo you need to enable, see !source-o-matic below and check again
[05:58] <phrowzen> ThreeFinity, vmware player doesnt allow you to set up virtual machines, it allows you to use already setup virtual machines.. you have to use vmware workstation if you are starting from scratch
[05:58] <nickrud> !sourceomatic
[05:58] <ubotu> nickrud: Bugger all, I dunno. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[05:59] <Nao> wendigo:  I really suck at this, I haven't used linux at all really, do I mount that folder or what do I do?  Sorry for being lame, any help is great
[05:59] <nickrud> !source-o-matic
[05:59] <ubotu> For an easy to use custom sources.list creator, visit http://ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[05:59] <ThreeFinity> phrowzen, ty
[05:59] <phrowzen> ThreeFinity, np
[05:59] <matthew_w> Which repo?  I have all of the defaults + PLF already enabled.
[05:59] <wendigo> Nao: ok, you have a windows partition that you would like to mount?
[05:59] <brandon_> slackern, nickrud: yes, but it should be possible to create a link called mpg123 to the play program i mentioned earlier
[05:59] <matthew_w> Universe, multiverse, backports, it's all there.
[05:59] <Nao> yeah,  d6
[05:59] <Nao> do*
[05:59] <nickrud> matthew_w, then check http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto
[06:00] <wendigo> Nao: open a terminal and paste this: sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda
[06:00] <nickrud> brandon_, which one?
[06:00] <PVZ> where do i delete my "recent documents" without using the panel?
[06:00] <matthew_w> Ah, forgot multiverse
[06:00] <wendigo> Nao: then tell me which partition number windows is on
[06:00] <Nao> wen: it brought up a lot of stuff
[06:01] <PVZ> after i open any openoffice application,the panel crashes all the time
[06:01] <Nao> my windows is sda1
[06:01] <Nao> so I put that in
[06:01] <nickrud> PVZ, dapper?
[06:01] <matthew_w> Err... No I didn't, this is weird.
[06:01] <brandon_> nickrud: there's a command-line application called play, that "sox" installs, that allows for playing all kinds of media files, including mp3s
[06:01] <PVZ> breezy
[06:01] <wendigo> Nao: ok, paste this: sudo nano -w /etc/fstab
[06:01] <hajuu> NO
[06:01] <brandon_> nickrud: so you can simply type "play file.mp3" from your audio directory and you'll see it works
[06:01] <Nao> wen: done
[06:01] <hajuu> ja ja
[06:02] <nickrud> brandon_ I know of it, but haven't tried it.
[06:02] <brandon_> nickrud: it just seems like a waste of space to have both mpg123 and sox installed
[06:02] <Nao> wen: it brought up a sort of grid/list thing
[06:03] <ThreeFinity> phrowzen, should the default vmware workstation work on 64bit ubuntu ?
[06:03] <wendigo> Nao: now add a line at the bottom and paste this: /dev/sda1 /mnt/windows ntfs defaults,ro,user,users 0 0
[06:03] <nickrud> brandon_, 256K doesn't sound like a space waster. I'm not particularly concerned about that.
[06:03] <Nao> wendigo: ok, done
[06:03] <Elazar> Why is it that MPlayer doesn't scale the video when I change the window size?
[06:03] <phrowzen> ThreeFinity, sorry, i have no idea, i use it on 32bit
[06:03] <brandon_> nickrud: i suppose i'm just being anal
[06:03] <ThreeFinity> bah
[06:03] <ingnorance> hi i just got a live dvd, how can i install it so it boots with gnome as default?
[06:04] <ThreeFinity> looks like I might have to downgrade

[06:04] <ThreeFinity> or elarn how to setup a sandbox
[06:04] <ThreeFinity> !sandbox
[06:04] <ubotu> NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, ThreeFinity
[06:04] <ThreeFinity> blah
[06:04] <wendigo> Nao: press ctrl + x, then type 'y' to agree to save the file
[06:04] <Nao> ok
[06:04] <Nao> what file do I write to, it asked
[06:04] <zcat[1] > which is more likely to be good for making kino behave, seveas' or cypherfunk repo?
[06:04] <Nao> file name*
[06:04] <PVZ> so,is there a way to delete the "recent documents" list of a user without using the panel?
[06:04] <wendigo> Nao: use the default name it gives, which should be /etc/fstab
[06:05] <ingnorance> hi i just got a live dvd, how can i install it so it boots with gnome as default?
[06:05] <Nao> ok, it sent me back to the terminal
[06:05] <nickrud> PVZ, I don't see that problem here. Do you have oooqstart-gnome installed?
[06:05] <PVZ> oooqstart-gnome
[06:05] <PVZ> i dont think so
[06:05] <ezekillmt> anyone here using dapper?
[06:05] <intelikey> PVZ maybe rm ~.recent*     ?
[06:05] <wendigo> Nao: ok now to confirm the settings, paste: cat /etc/fstab | grep ntfs
[06:05] <Nao> ok
[06:05] <PVZ> should i do rm ~.recent* as the user?
[06:06] <intelikey> yes
[06:06] <ezekillmt> yo holla if you using dapper.
[06:06] <eggzeck> you don't need to delete it
[06:06] <eggzeck> and I don't advise doing so
[06:06] <PVZ> so,what should i do?
[06:06] <zcat[1] > ezekillmt: try #dapper+1  (I'm running it but this is not the place to get help for it)
[06:06] <zcat[1] > err #ubuntu+1 rather
[06:07] <intelikey> eggzeck i was only answering the Q howto.
[06:07] <eggzeck> PVZ: just clear it with: sed 's/.*//' <.recently-used
[06:07] <Nao> wen: is there anything left for me to do?
[06:08] <ezekillmt> Using Dapper Anybody?
[06:08] <Elazar> Why is it that MPlayer doesn't scale the video when I change the window size?
[06:08] <Nao> I'm using dapper
[06:08] <matthew_w> ezekillmt; join #ubuntu+1 as far as I know.
[06:08] <brandon_> Elazar, because you;re using the wrong video driver
[06:08] <ezekillmt> got ya
[06:08] <intelikey> eggzeck lol....  how is that any better than rm'ing it ?
[06:08] <eggzeck> intelikey, it's CLEARING not deleting ;)
[06:08] <brandon_> Elazar, change it to xv
[06:08] <PVZ> so eggzeck...
[06:08] <PVZ> i login as the user and do that comand right?
[06:08] <intelikey> eggzeck i repete how is it any better ?
[06:08] <PVZ> thank you very much
[06:08] <ezekillmt> cheers...
[06:09] <PVZ> and thank you very much too intelikey.
[06:09] <eggzeck> intelikey, you can't be serious?
[06:09] <meneg> hi, if one installs the latest test, will it be possible to upgrade to the later stable?
[06:09] <nickrud> Elazar, you need to tell mplayer to use the xv video out; try mplayer -vo xv <file>
[06:09] <intelikey> eggzeck writes to .recent are made via  >>    so yes i'm extreemly sirious
[06:09] <hajuu> is there anyway to have a key combination open a new xterm window?
[06:09] <eggzeck> intelikey, ">>" is append ;)
[06:10] <nickrud> hajuu, in gnome?
[06:10] <hajuu> in fluxbox
[06:10] <intelikey> eggzeck if you can't see what i'm saying lets just drop it.

[06:14] <firebird619> lutra: no, Breezy
[06:14] <intelikey> firebird619 it's better to use the package in the repos.
[06:14] <lutra> firebird619: if you're on dapper xubuntu-desktop will get you latest version of xfce
[06:14] <Elazar> nickrud: I tried playing a MOV file in VLC, but for some reason the audio doesn't come through. Audio comes through in MPlayer, but then I can't resize the video. :\
[06:14] <ThreeFinity> so there's like no difference in compile times or anything with ubuntu i386 and ubuntu amd64?
[06:14] <lutra> firebird619: thought about upgrading?
[06:14] <Elazar> nickrud: And Totem won't open the file because it doesn't recognize the format. Not sure how to solve that problem.
[06:14] <eggzeck> firebird619, 'apt-cache search xfce'
[06:14] <firebird619> eggzeck, I want the 4.4 version which is beta at the moment.
[06:15] <bodhitree> Elazar, probably a codec issue.
[06:15] <eggzeck> firebird619, you should see xfce4
[06:15] <ingnorance> Reading package lists... Done
[06:15] <ingnorance> Building dependency tree... Done
[06:15] <ingnorance> E: Couldn't find package ubuntu
[06:15] <eggzeck> firebird619, oh I see.
[06:15] <Elazar> bodhitree: In the case of Totem, obviously. Suggestions?
[06:15] <bodhitree> ingnorance, ubuntu-desktop, not ubuntu.
[06:15] <ti||> Can somebody help me with my CUPS problem, please?
[06:15] <muraii> On starting to install ff 1.5, I notice that it's i686.  Is that going to be problematic if I'm using the i386 kernel?
[06:15] <firebird619> lutra: the only way I can upgrade is to order the CDs from LaunchPad. I only have dialup Internet
[06:15] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop :)
[06:15] <konstandinos> nickrud: i think that tutorial is outdated - very first instruction fails
[06:15] <bodhitree> Elazar, get the binary-essentials codec package from www.mplayerhq.hu ?
[06:15] <ti||> Google wasn't very helpfule
[06:15] <lutra> firebird619: ah...
[06:15] <konstandinos> nickrud: and it differs slightly to what ubotu has to say
[06:15] <lutra> firebird619: i think there will be xubuntu cds for dapper you can order
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: You think me not being able to resize the video in MPlayer is a codec issue??
[06:16] <ingnorance> ubuntu-desktop is already the newest version.
[06:16] <ingnorance> 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
[06:16] <lutra> which will come with xfce4.4
[06:16] <bodhitree> Elazar, oh, I thought you had no audio.
[06:16] <lutra> firebird619: try #xubuntu
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: Only in VLC.
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: I get audio in MPlayer.
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: I just can't resize the video in MPlayer.
[06:16] <bodhitree> Elazar, ahh, my bad.  No clue why you can't resize, that's odd.
[06:16] <firebird619> lutra: ok, I will try #xubuntu. Thanks
[06:16] <Elazar> bodhitree: I mean, I have the option to resize, but it only resizes the window containing the video, not the video itself.
[06:17] <orbin> muraii: no.  i use a k7 kernel w/ it and it works fine.
[06:17] <Elazar> bodhitree: People have suggested I try changing the video mode, but then I get this error message: "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2"
[06:17] <wendigo> elazar: you need to use -vo xv
[06:17] <Elazar> wendigo: I tried that. Then I get this error message. ^^^
[06:17] <bodhitree> Elazar, change your output plugin
[06:17] <wendigo> elazar: what error?
[06:17] <lutra> firebird619: np
[06:17] <bodhitree> try -vo opengl if you have 3D drivers installed.
[06:17] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: what was the original problem?
[06:17] <nickrud> Elazar, you get that error with -vo xv in mplayer??
[06:18] <Elazar> wendigo: "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2" when I try to right-click on the window to change the zoom.
[06:18] <Elazar> nickrud: "No bind found for key MOUSE_BTN2?" When I right-click to try to change the zoom, yes.
[06:18] <brandon_> Elazar: that's telling you that your damned mouse button doesn't work, it's not a driver issue
[06:18] <wendigo> elazar: thats not a video error. look at the other error messages
[06:19] <nickrud> Elazar, try simply resizing the window with the mouse (drag the border)
[06:19] <wendigo> elazar: glxinfo | grep direct
[06:19] <ingnorance> zcat: i installed from a live dvd but now booting without the dvd leads to the prompt screen i want it to load gnome automatically
[06:19] <Elazar> nickrud: Same effect... bigger window, video doesn't scale with it.
[06:19] <GreySim> Question.  Does anyone know how to kill off the process of updating packages after the initial Breezy install?  Like, after the install and the first reboot, when it installs all the packages copied to harddisk?  The copy failed for me and I'd just like to apt-get everything since I'm upgrading to Dapper anyway, but the post-install install has a lock on apt.
[06:19] <Elazar> wendigo: direct rendering: Yes
[06:20] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: 'prompt screen' meaning what? text login? gui login?
[06:20] <wendigo> elazar: you should beable to use xv then
[06:20] <ingnorance> zcat:
[06:20] <ingnorance> zcat: text
[06:20] <Elazar> Ah, OK...
[06:21] <Elazar> For some reason, my config file settings aren't taking effect.
[06:21] <wendigo> elazar: ~/.mplayer/config
[06:21] <dedex> gdf
[06:21] <dedex> iou
[06:21] <wendigo> elazar: vo=xv
[06:21] <zcat[1] > ingnorance: try 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall gdm'   -- crude, but it might fix the problem.
[06:21] <dedex> opk
[06:22] <ingnorance> zcat: ok
[06:22] <nickrud> Elazar, wiki.ubuntu.com/MplayerInstallHowto has a decent config
[06:22] <bodhitree> vo=quartz ;)
[06:22] <Elazar> wendigo: Tried that. It doesn't seem to be reading the config file though.
[06:22] <bodhitree> hehe
[06:22] <Elazar> nickrud: Tried that, too. Same result. :\
[06:22] <Elazar> For some reason, though, it works if I call it from command line with the vo option set.
[06:22] <intelikey> GreySim you could rm the lock file   but that wont fix the broken packages.  you'll have to fix that before you can proceed with the upgrade.   if this is a fresh install.  i'd sujest redo it as server-install (cli only) and then upgrade to dapper, after that is finished you can apt-get your X crap... i.e. ubuntu-desktop
[06:22] <wendigo> elazar: just use on command line then. mplayer -vo xv <video file>
[06:23] <pin> hello
[06:23] <nickrud> hi pin
[06:23] <pin> i need som help
[06:23] <zcat[1] > Elazar: so set it in .mplayer/config
[06:23] <Elazar> Seems odd that I should have to do it that way, though. Not sure why it doesn't appear to be reading the config file.
[06:23] <matthew_w> Is there a place to check if my PC supports CPU scaling?
[06:23] <Elazar> zcat[1] : (11:22:25 PM) Elazar: wendigo: Tried that. It doesn't seem to be reading the config file though.
[06:24] <pin> what should i do to turn ubuntu in to xubuntu.. (no gnome etc.)
[06:24] <nickrud> Elazar, make sure you didn't typo the config name
[06:24] <brandon_> Elazar: the config file for the gui mplayer is in a different place
[06:24] <FroKiller> Hey I have a bunch of my music on a windows hard drive, I mounted them and then added the music into Rhythmbox but can't get them to play, all of the files are in m4a acc format
[06:24] <zcat[1] > Elazar: echo "vo=xv" >> ~/.mplayer/config
[06:24] <brandon_> are you using the gui mplayer?
[06:24] <wendigo> elazar: cat ~/.mplayer/config | grep xv
[06:24] <nickrud> pin, sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop
[06:24] <intelikey> GreySim i think that would be the easiest way for you
[06:24] <pin> nickrud, who will i get rid of ubuntu(gnome)
[06:24] <zcat[1] > gmplayer should read the same config..
[06:25] <Elazar> wendigo: (11:22:25 PM) Elazar: wendigo: Tried that. It doesn't seem to be reading the config file though.
[06:25] <zcat[1] > !mp4
[06:25] <ubotu> zcat[1] : NO SPEAKE ENLISH! Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[06:25] <nickrud> pin, gnome will be there, you just don't use it. It's more trouble than it's worth trying to delete it
[06:25] <Elazar> D'oh.
[06:25] <zcat[1] > hmm..
[06:25] <Elazar> wendigo: vo=xv
[06:25] <intelikey> GreySim if you are not confortable in a console, why not wait a month for dapper to be released.
[06:25] <zcat[1] > there's some gstreamer stuff you add for aac and mp4.. want me to dig it up?
[06:25] <pin> i want to delete it
[06:25] <wendigo> elazar: then it' s in your config
[06:25] <vook> I seek guidance on getting s-video out to work on my laptop.  I've googled with no success.  I have a HP zv 5260 laptop, nvidia chipset, xorg.conf can be found here:  http://pastebin.com/704722
[06:26] <pin> Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "xubuntu-desktop.
[06:26] <decal> anyone have problems with ubuntu boot cds ? i cant get it to boot at all
[06:26] <wendigo> elazar: try running a video on the command line and see if it's scalable. mplayer <video>
[06:26] <FroKiller> is there something i need to do to add acc compatibility?
[06:26] <brandon_> zcat[1] : no, gmplayer uses gui.conf
[06:26] <onthost> decal: does your bios support booting from a CD? and does it attempt to boot from it?
[06:26] <pin> ^^
[06:26] <Elazar> wendigo: Odd... it is.
[06:26] <nickrud> pin, you'll need to enable some extra repos then. See !repos below
[06:27] <nickrud> !repos
[06:27] <ubotu> To enable Universe and Multiverse see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AddingRepositoriesHowto - Official sources.lists here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6047 (Breezy) or http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/6666 (Dapper) see also !easysource
[06:27] <Elazar> OK, that's weird.
[06:27] <jyoung> decal- did you burn the boot disk yourself? if so, did you burn it as an ISO?
[06:27] <intelikey> decal the major problem seems to be in people not burning the iso to disk as a disk image.
[06:27] <decal> yes, it says searching for boot record from cd, and then it says not found, the slackware boot cds work fine, ubuntu cds are the only ones that have given me problems
[06:27] <Elazar> It's mysteriously started working.
[06:27] <wendigo> elazar:  then brandon_ is correct and gmplayer uses different config file
[06:27] <pin> i got repos..
[06:27] <pin> whatever
[06:27] <zcat[1] > sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-faac
[06:27] <decal> yeah i burned it as an iso
[06:27] <nickrud> pin, it's in universe.
[06:27] <brandon_> wendigo: it uses gui.conf in the same folder
[06:27] <jyoung> decal- and your bios is set to boot from CD?
[06:27] <wendigo> brandon_: ok
[06:27] <zcat[1] > oops
[06:27] <decal> yeah, it boots slackware just fine
[06:28] <jyoung> strange.
[06:28] <zcat[1] > sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.8-faad  (faac is the encoder, faad is the decoder)
[06:28] <decal> i dont know what it is, slackware is pissing me off and i want to format and install ubuntu
[06:28] <FroKiller> zcat you talkin to me?
[06:28] <jyoung> it makes me think the CD didnt burn correctly.
[06:28] <jyoung> mine always work perfectly on my Mac and my Dell
[06:28] <zcat[1] > whoever wanted aac to play..
[06:28] <FroKiller> yeah
[06:28] <FroKiller> i already have gstreamer installed
[06:28] <decal> i even used the program they told me to burn with on the ubuntu website
[06:28] <GreySim> intelikey, thanks.  I am comfortable with CLI, but I was away from the computer and didn't see your reply.  Thanks.  :)
[06:28] <bluelotus> can someone go here and tell me if the page changes onBlur of the top dropdown box? http://cybarc.is-a-geek.net/work/selby/ap_website/amyportnoy/index.html?what=publisher&which=4&id=9
[06:29] <decal> im guessing its my computer, because ive booted those images before on other comps
[06:29] <jyoung> could just be a bad cd. have you tried to make another one?
[06:29] <FroKiller> is it because there are no write permissions on my windows drive could that be the problem
[06:29] <decal> well on a virtual machine anyway
[06:29] <nickrud> decal, when you look at the contents of the cd, is it one file or many?
[06:29] <intelikey> GreySim welcome
[06:29] <jyoung> ah... so the cd works in other computers?
[06:29] <vars> hey is there anyway i can use just a crossover cable to connect two comps that are running breezy?
[06:29] <Elazar> wendigo, nickrud, brandon_: Thanks for the help guys.
[06:29] <decal> i tried the dvd combo one and the regular iso one and neither worked
[06:29] <brandon_> Elazar: no problem
[06:29] <decal> nick: many
[06:29] <nickrud> Elazar, we held your hand, and it started working :)
[06:29] <zcat[1] > vars: yes..
[06:29] <jyoung> what kind of computer?
[06:29] <bluelotus> sugar
[06:29] <bluelotus> sorry wrong channel
[06:30] <intelikey> decal if the disk can boot on another box but not yours......    by the same test if it can't boot anywhere......  :)
[06:30] <nickrud> decal, then if it works on one machine, but not this one (missed that before I hit enter)
[06:30] <vars> zcat[1] , can you please tell me?
[06:30] <pin> nickrud can i pm u?
[06:31] <decal> dammit, why would it not boot specifically the ubuntu cds, it boots other bootable cds just fine
[06:31] <nickrud> pin, sure
[06:31] <zcat[1] > give them an rfc1918 address (192.168.1.n) where n is different on each machine, netmask <IP_ADDRESS>, no gateway.
[06:31] <MetaMorfoziS> decal: you burn that cd like image?
[06:31] <MetaMorfoziS> if you wrtie it like data cd, it can't boot
[06:31] <decal> yes
[06:31] <decal> oh
[06:31] <decal> oh shit
[06:31] <nickrud> !register
[06:31] <decal> wait
[06:31] <ubotu> Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> :)
[06:32] <ignorance> zcat: didn't work
[06:32] <decal> no i did burn it as an image, i think
[06:32] <decal> im pretty sure
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> insert it to your cdrom
[06:32] <vars> zcat[1] , how so i do that specifically
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> ok...
[06:32] <MetaMorfoziS> else i dunno
[06:32] <hajuu> !freedom !!
[06:32] <ubotu> No idea, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, hajuu
[06:32] <zcat[1] > ignorance: ok, if you log in text and type 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" does it start?
[06:32] <vars> zcat[1] , and what is the interface to use in order to share files?
[06:32] <ignorance> zcat: dunno
[06:33] <zcat[1] > vars: my head asplode, trying to follow too many conversations :)
[06:33] <drgnmyst> has anyone had any luck getting a Broadcom 4318 wireless card working?
[06:33] <drgnmyst> with Dapper?
[06:33] <zcat[1] > ignorance: so try it?
[06:33] <MetaMorfoziS> gif
[06:33] <MetaMorfoziS> google is your friend:)
[06:33] <ignorance> zcat: doing so now
[06:33] <intelikey> decal like i said.  test 1   does the cd boot on other boxes ?    test 2  do other cd's boot on your box.    test 3  if yes to both the above, then we look to see why that disk won't boot on your box.
[06:33] <MetaMorfoziS> giyf...:D
[06:34] <vars> zcat[1] ,  i am trying to use a crossover cable to share files between to ubuntu comps that are server installs
[06:34] <decal> the answer is yes to both tests
[06:34] <decal> heh
[06:34] <jyoung> decal: when you insert the cd and look at the files on it, do you see a bunch of files or just the one iso file?
[06:34] <decal> a bunch
[06:35] <zcat[1] > vars: ahh.. ok. you have to edit /etc/network/interfaces first on both machines
[06:35] <jyoung> ok... i have no idea why it won't boot to it. must be a bios incompatibility or something. I have NEVER had a problem with the boot CD. this is strange
[06:35] <decal> yeah
[06:35] <intelikey> decal see these two dirs on the cd  .disk   and  isolinux   ?
[06:36] <zcat[1] > vars: it would be much easier if they're both on the net through a hub already..
[06:36] <zcat[1] > .. because you're probably going to need to isntall ssh or samba soon.
[06:37] <decal> heh, i dont even know how to browse my cd drive in slackware or if its even mounted or what
[06:37] <vars> zcat[1] , my isp gtave me a router with only one cat5 outlet
[06:37] <FirstLite> I'm getting tons of "package not verified" errors doing security updates (on a Hoary system).  Apparently the .debs aren't signed.  Anyone know if this is normal?
[06:37] <decal> but when i had windows a few hours ago, it had all the normal directories like an image file normally burns
[06:37] <zcat[1] > vars: get a sheap hub, you'll save yourself a lot of grief.
[06:37] <MetaMorfoziS> bye all
[06:38] <intelikey> so how did you answer the question <jyoung> decal: when you insert the cd and look at the files on it, do you see a bunch of files or just the one iso file?   <> <decal> a bunch   ?
[06:38] <zcat[1] > plug the isp's router and both computers in, everything should just work thanks to the magic of dhcp.
[06:38] <decal> because ive looked at the cd before while i was on windows
[06:38] <decal> and it had a bunch
[06:38] <decal> not just the iso file
[06:38] <jyoung> if he sees a bunch of files, then the iso burned correctly.
[06:38] <bimberi> ubotu tell FirstLite about gpgerr
[06:38] <gza> hi
[06:38] <jyoung> i was thinking he might have just data copied the iso to the cd
[06:38] <intelikey> so mount it and ls -a the mount point
[06:39] <FirstLite> bimberi: thanks, will try
[06:39] <intelikey> jyoung windows cant view the conenets of an iso ?
[06:39] <ben32167> what is the opposite of aptitude install?
[06:39] <lynx> hi!!
[06:39] <ben32167> uninstal?
[06:39] <gza> what filesystem should I use for ubuntu? ext2? reiserfs?
[06:39] <zcat[1] > ben32167: apt-get remove --purge ?
[06:40] <vars> zcat[1] , i only have one cat5 outlet on the hub and only one outlet on each of the cmputers.
[06:40] <ben32167> what does --purge mean?
[06:40] <jyoung> if he just copied the iso to the cd, then on the root of the cd all he would see is the iso
[06:40] <lynx> can some one hellp me with Nvidia GForce 6500.... I can't make it work... no direct remderring
[06:40] <zcat[1] > vars: you need a 4-port hub.
[06:40] <ben32167> i will remove gnome
[06:40] <ContinuumXLS> hey all
[06:40] <vars> zcat is there any other way?
[06:41] <decal> how do i mount the cd drive to read whats on it in slackware
[06:41] <GreySim> Isn't it possible to use zeroconf and a crossover cable?
[06:41] <decal> the cd is /dev/hda btw, which im guessing is unorthadox
[06:41] <intelikey> mount /dev/<device> /mount/point
[06:41] <bimberi> ben32167: 'aptitude remove' or 'aptitude purge'
[06:41] <zcat[1] > vars: yes, but it's gonna take a while to explain, is complicated, and you'll be constantly switching between config for internet and other computer.
[06:41] <vars> ok here is another option, i have a windows comp  that i can use as a go between, but my head is starting to hurt
[06:41] <ben32167> whts the differenfe between purge and remove?
[06:41] <intelikey> decal unorthodox is my standard..
[06:42] <decal> heh
[06:42] <zcat[1] > GreySim: good point. You think that would work?
[06:42] <vars> zcat  i have roughly 1 gig of info to get from my computer to my laptop   ( both run linux
[06:42] <GreySim> I'm not sure.  I haven't played much with zeroconf and Avahi beyond getting DAAP working.
[06:42] <zcat[1] > GreySim: i think a cheap hub would still be easier.. that's what I used to use with my dist-cheap one port DSL modem.
[06:42] <vars> GreySim, hmmm
[06:42] <GreySim> I think it's worth investigating if a hub isn't an option for some reason though.
[06:43] <vars> zcat[1] , yeah but it isn't i have to get this suff over to the laptop tonight
[06:43] <zcat[1] > GreySim: anyhow, I'm gonna go beat up kino again. I'll let you handle this one :)
[06:43] <decal> ok, ive got the cd rom mounted, and it shows the .disk directory and the isolinux directory
[06:43] <vars> zcat[1] , thanks for you're help
[06:44] <zcat[1] > start by installing ssh on each machine.. probably the easiest option :)
[06:44] <bimberi> ben32167: purge is remove plus take out configuration files as well
[06:44] <MachineScrew> is there a way to burn a .bin file without K3b
[06:44] <decal> so no ideas on why this isnt booting?
[06:44] <intelikey> decal ok check both of them.  .disk should have "base_components  base_installable  info  udeb_include"
[06:45] <decal> yea, it has those
[06:45] <intelikey> decal and isolinux "boot.cat  f2.txt  f5.txt  f8.txt        isolinux.cfg    f1.txt    f3.txt  f6.txt  f9.txt        isolinux.txt   f10.txt   f4.txt  f7.txt  isolinux.bin  splash.rle"
[06:46] <mithro> how do I stop my computer from suspending when the power is disconnected from my laptop?
[06:46] <vars> so go and install shh and then figure out how to make the computers talk to eachother and then what?
[06:46] <zcat[1] > vars: ok, I'll stick around and help :)
[06:46] <jyoung> why did intelikey get kicked off?
[06:46] <decal> flood
[06:46] <GreySim> zcat[1] : You're probably much more qualified than I am on this.  :)
[06:46] <zcat[1] > on the one that's currently connected to the net type    sudo apt-get install ssh    in a terminal
[06:47] <decal> damn, and i cant msg him
[06:47] <decal> this sucks
[06:47] <GreySim> Why not an FTP server though?
[06:47] <jyoung> what is a flood?
[06:47] <zcat[1] > GreySim: ssh/scp is easier than ftp imho..
[06:47] <brandon_> does superkaramba not work with gnome?
[06:47] <GreySim> zcat[1] : I'll take your word on it.  I probably think of FTP first only out of habit.  :)
[06:47] <vars> zcat[1] , i am installing ssh right now
[06:48] <bimberi> i don't think it's a flood.  Ubugtu is configured to react to certain strings in a post
[06:48] <zcat[1] > GreySim: he'd have to set up an ftpd.. scp uses ordinary user shells
[06:48] <decal> ooh
[06:48] <joewag> Does anyone know how I can get a USB mouse to get redetected after having unplugged it?
[06:48] <ben32167> why purging gnome keyring also uninstals xubuntu-desktop?
[06:49] <sparkleytone> xubuntu-desktop is just a dummy package
[06:49] <bimberi> heh, none
[06:49] <zcat[1] > xubuntu-desktop probably depends on gnome-keyring?
[06:49] <sparkleytone> if you don't have everything in the list...its not installed
[06:49] <cafe> how to play wma in linux
[06:49] <ben32167> i have xubuntu desktop idont have ubuntu-desktop and gnome

[06:49] <Hobbsee> bimberi: ?
[06:49] <zcat[1] > !restrictedformats
[06:49] <ubotu> methinks restrictedformats is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RestrictedFormats Most of the formats listed here can be replaced by !FreeFormats
[06:49] <HedgeMage> bimberi: what's wrong?
[06:49] <sneex> \=
[06:50] <vars> GreySim, zcat[1]   i tried to use gspace but i am limeted to 14 mb
[06:50] <bimberi> Hobbsee: intelikey wrongly got kicked by Ubugtu (imo)
[06:50] <bimberi> ... and banned
[06:50] <sparkleytone> !tell cafe about restricted formats
[06:50] <cafuego> !bcm4318 is a card you need to use ndiswrapper with.
[06:50] <ubotu> okay, cafuego
[06:50] <zcat[1] > vars: another option if you have it is a USB mp3 player or camera :)
[06:50] <PORDO> if i compiled my own jackd, should i compile my own hydrogen, as the package version is looking for /usr/bin/jackd and not /usr/local/bin/jackd?
[06:51] <Hobbsee> bimberi: how odd.  Seveas seems to be having problems with it
[06:51] <zcat[1] > PORDO: this is why I always suggest sticking to packages :)
[06:51] <sparkleytone> ahhh intelikey...i remember him from last night...did he turn out to be a troll?
[06:51] <HedgeMage> Hobbsee: I'll leave it to you then... I'm off to poke at my mom's web site some more.
[06:51] <Hobbsee> HedgeMage: sure
[06:51] <sparkleytone> i really like that bot
[06:51] <bimberi> Hobbsee: thanks.  Hi btw :)
[06:51] <vars> zcat[1] , that is a good idea, i just don't have a card big enough
[06:52] <Hobbsee> sparkleytone: me too.  it got some upgrades yesterday though
[06:52] <clif> Any one know how to make an external mouse plugged into a ps2 mouse port over ride the internal touch pad on ubuntu 5.10 running on a compaq presario 1200 laptop, it won't use the external mouse I'm new to ubuntu so you'll have to guide me in laymans terms LOL
[06:52] <Hobbsee> hi bimberi :P
[06:52] <vars> zcat[1] , ok shh is installed on both machines
[06:52] <GreySim> vars: How much data do you need to move again?
[06:52] <vars> about a gig
[06:52] <zcat[1] > vars: ok, take them off the net and plug them into each other
[06:52] <PORDO> zcat[1]  in this case, the package version of jackd wouldn't work with ardour, which i had compiled.
[06:52] <ben32167> can i use a command like  aptget distupgrade xubuntu?
[06:52] <PORDO> zcat[1]  i definitely had a reason to compile jackd.
[06:53] <zcat[1] > PORDO: sounds like you have a reason to compile hydrogen now...
[06:53] <trym> I cant get svn working... svn: Unrecognized URL scheme for 'http://svn.inviso.local/invisoextra'
[06:54] <vars> zcat[1] , ok they are both plugged in
[06:54] <zcat[1] > PORDO: you could probably make a simlink for jackd and tell apt to ignore the missing dependency.
[06:54] <vars> hi intelikey did you have a nice trip?
[06:54] <zcat[1] > vars: ok, on one 'sudo ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>'
[06:54] <bimberi> wb intelikey
[06:54] <intelikey> OK !   what did i trip the bot with ?
[06:54] <zcat[1] > vars: and on the other 'sudo ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS>'
[06:54] <PORDO> zcat[1]  how can you tell apt to ignore a dependency?
[06:55] <yaaar> word
[06:55] <zcat[1] > PORDO: umm.. --force is one option :) there are probably nicer ways. I had to do something like that to make Xgl and Xorg coexist
[06:55] <vars> ok
[06:56] <intelikey> anybody know what it was that got me booted from the channel ?
[06:56] <yaaar> can anybody tell me the relative performance of geforce 7300LE vs. 7300GS? I'm about to build a system and the price diff is $10, dunno if I should go for the GS?

[06:56] <vars> intelikey, it was your behaviour
[06:56] <intelikey> vars  ya think ?
[06:56] <bimberi> intelikey: Ubugtu reacted to the post beginning with:   decal and isolinux "boot.cat...

[07:23] <valehru> any suggestions?
[07:23] <vmadmin> tritium: thanks if i have vmware server and ssh whats the benefit of haveing vnc server
[07:23] <dreyes> anyone install zimbra on ubuntu?
[07:24] <intelikey> is there not a way to update apt without gpg ?
[07:24] <tritium> vmadmin: it's your preference, I'd say
[07:24] <sparkleytone> mine updates fine
[07:24] <amac> anyone have vim 7 working on ubuntu with omnicomplete?
[07:24] <sparkleytone> it just gives a warning
[07:24] <amac> i cant seem to get onmicomplete working
[07:25] <intelikey> W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release: Could not execute /usr/bin/gpgv to verify signature (is gnupg installed?)  <---- and no it's not installed.   what will it do if i symlink gpg and true ?
[07:25] <vmadmin> tritium: so vnc server behaves like ssh
[07:25] <tritium> vmadmin: no, you'd have to tunnel it
[07:25] <sparkleytone> intelikey: try it
[07:25] <sparkleytone> can't really hurt anything
[07:26] <blahblah2000> what irc clients do you guys use?
[07:26] <MachineScrew> what command will show me my current bandwidth usage in real time
[07:26] <blahblah2000> for linux that is
[07:26] <tritium> irssi, blahblah2000
[07:26] <intelikey> sparkleytone did. this is what happens "W: GPG error: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hoary Release: Internal error: Good signature, but could not determine key fingerprint?!"
[07:26] <zcat[1] > blahblah2000: epic4
[07:26] <Wirwing> Greysim: can u repeat me the name of the app than u told me? :S
[07:26] <sparkleytone> blahblah2000: irssi proxy
[07:26] <MachineScrew> any one
[07:26] <GreySim> Cowbell is one, Easytag is another.
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> what program should I use to burn an iso of ubuntu?
[07:27] <Wirwing> thnks :)
[07:27] <sparkleytone> cdrecord
[07:27] <salmiak_> ThreeFinity, what Operative system? ;)
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> does it have a gui ?
[07:27] <tritium> MachineScrew: there's no cli command that I'm aware of.
[07:27] <sparkleytone> no
[07:27] <vmadmin> tritium: so ssh is an encrypted connection on say port22 whereas vnc server is just lie a remote desktop
[07:27] <zcat[1] > ntop ?
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> ok is there a good burner that has a GUI for ubuntu?
[07:27] <bimberi_> ThreeFinity: in ubuntu itself? right-click on iso file, select Write to CD (or something like that)
[07:27] <MachineScrew> ThreeFinity: try right clicking on the ISO in nautilus
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> oh
[07:27] <salmiak_> gnomebaker is great ThreeFinity
[07:27] <ThreeFinity> that'll burn it an the expanded iso image right? not just as a file on a cd
[07:27] <intelikey> MachineScrew there is a gui .....  can't recall it name.
[07:28] <tritium> MachineScrew: as rapidly as it fluctuates anyway, it wouldn't be worhth much, unless you took an average over a sufficiently sized window
[07:28] <ThreeFinity> an/as
[07:28] <intelikey> MachineScrew gkrelm
[07:28] <MachineScrew> right
[07:28] <ThreeFinity> k
[07:28] <salmiak_> or, you can do as MachineScrew and bimberi suggested. Nautilus got integrated (and working) iso-burning
[07:28] <bimberi_> ThreeFinity: yes, as an expanded iso image
[07:28] <MachineScrew> intelikey: to much work
[07:28] <tritium> vmadmin: so to speak, yes.  That's why I'd recommend tunnelint vnc over ssh if you use it.
[07:28] <ThreeFinity> ty bimberi
[07:28] <tritium> tunneling even
[07:28] <MachineScrew> lol
[07:28] <bimberi_> ThreeFinity: np :)
[07:28] <intelikey> MachineScrew well netstat via script....
[07:29] <majd|away> how do you extract rar files?
[07:29] <hey560> !dapper
[07:29] <ubotu> Dapper Drake will be the next release of Ubuntu - due June 1 (see: http://tinyurl.com/qyrkq). Join channel #ubuntu+1 for discussion and support :)
[07:29] <intelikey> !rar
[07:29] <ubotu> it has been said that rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FileCompression
[07:29] <majd|away> thanks
[07:29] <MachineScrew> intelikey: well the reason I ask is I was pulling in 2 isos from the same server one toped out at 500/KBs the other toped out at 500/KBs
[07:30] <vmadmin> tritium: is tunnelint a program that you add to vnc server or is a series of commands
[07:30] <MachineScrew> so there i have it
[07:30] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: is that a joke?
[07:30] <tritium> vmadmin: it's a method of redirecting ports over ssh, setup with commands
[07:30] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: no
[07:30] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: why
[07:30] <salmiak_> I wonder if it's possible to start burning the iso while downloading it ;)
[07:31] <salmiak_> with nautilus iso-burning
[07:31] <intelikey> MachineScrew sure one could always load a loop send/recieve and see what happens.
[07:31] <Hobbsee> salmiak_: i'm not aware of it being possible...
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> heh
[07:31] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: yes i had 2 downloads both going 500/KBs because I have a 9Mbit connection
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> would be nice
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> but um
[07:31] <ThreeFinity> depends how fast you can download it
[07:31] <salmiak_> ofcourse
[07:31] <vmadmin> tritium: is there a wiki or howto some where ?
[07:31] <muraii> So, I know this is off-topic; but it's an Ubuntu system and about default security.  I thought Ubuntu came with all ports shutdown.  Is this always really the case?
[07:31] <MachineScrew> intelikey: well my thing was i guess servers limit how fast people can connect right
[07:32] <intelikey> MachineScrew just one m between our networks.
[07:32] <intelikey> yours is *mbit  and mine is *bit   :)
[07:32] <pitti> muraii: yes, the default install will always have no open ports
[07:32] <tritium> vmadmin: several, google search "vnc ssh tunnel"
[07:32] <blahblah2000> question: i'm trying to install dapper drake from the livecd, but the installer can't create partitions: "failed to create fily system"
[07:32] <bimberi> muraii: the default install is not listening on any external ports
[07:32] <MachineScrew> so it saw 2 different files both downloaded using the same computer
[07:32] <blahblah2000> know why that could happen?
[07:32] <MachineScrew> wow
[07:32] <vars> hey is zcat[1]  STILL HERE   thanks a ton dude
[07:32] <muraii> pitti: Is nmap accurate, or is it known to show ports open that aren't actually open?
[07:32] <intelikey> MachineScrew yes the fastest machine on the block is only as fase as it's slowest connection..
[07:32] <Wirwing> hi, i have a little question.... when i install a program using sudo aptitute/ap-get install ***********" command line, the program appears in the synaptic installed program list?
[07:33] <pitti> muraii: no, it should be accurate
[07:33] <MachineScrew> right
[07:33] <bimberi> Wirwing: yes
[07:33] <pitti> muraii: it'll show you if a port is blocked
[07:33] <muraii> pitti: That's what I thought.  I have NetBIOS open, and a couple more.
[07:33] <MachineScrew> ok and not many servers out there go to 1MB/s ;)
[07:33] <pitti> muraii: then you installed samba
[07:33] <vars> Wirwing, apt  and synaptic use the same apt
[07:34] <vars> ahhh i  am tired don't listen to me
[07:34] <MachineScrew> though unsustained I have reached 1Megabyte/s
[07:34] <muraii> pitti: Thought it might be that.  Will that run 445, too, for MS-DS?
[07:34] <pitti> muraii: yes
[07:34] <MachineScrew> I am VERY close to the hub of the Cox network
[07:34] <intelikey> Wirwing aptitude apt and synaptic  are all frontends to the  debian package manager = dpkg
[07:34] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: i get 1MB/sec regularly from the ubuntu repos
[07:35] <konstandinos> !rails
[07:35] <ubotu> Some people juggle geese. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/, konstandinos
[07:35] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: I get around 500KB to 900KB from the us. servers and faster from just archive.ubuntu
[07:35] <muraii> Maybe I should check what ports samba opens.  I should be able to close those when I'm not looking for MS shares.
[07:36] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: if you're machine is on a big fat pipe, you'll notice that there are a lot of servers out there that can do well over 1MB/sec
[07:36] <pitti> muraii: btw, you know about 'sudo -i tcp:<port>' ?
[07:36] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: but I am finding that using wget in the console is faster than letting firefox download it
[07:36] <pitti> muraii: or 'sudo netstat -avptu' ?
[07:36] <Fusion> hello everyone
[07:36] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: oh definitely.  i don't use a GUI at all so i guess that's another reason its not so uncommon
[07:36] <Wirwing> hi, can i edit tags from a mp3 archive localized in a Xp Ntfs Partition?
[07:36] <intelikey> MachineScrew it is that even on dialup
[07:37] <MachineScrew> sparkleytone: well my limit is 9Mb/s AND I am on a wifi connection
[07:37] <sparkleytone> ah gotcha
[07:37] <Fusion> as you can probably imagine...i'm here because i'm having some ubuntu problems =\
[07:37] <muraii> pitti: Dinna know 'bout the former, and never used the latter.
[07:37] <MachineScrew> intelikey: not shure haven't been on dialup in a wile
[07:37] <sparkleytone> MachineScrew: yeah my ubuntu install is colocated, so i get good stuff
[07:37] <intelikey> MachineScrew statement not question.
[07:38] <sparkleytone> mac mini colo is so cheap...its great.
[07:38] <MachineScrew> intelikey: sorry
[07:38] <pitti> Wirwing: easytag is a nice package for tags
[07:38] <MachineScrew> cool
[07:38] <pitti> Wirwing: not the easiest one, but very flexible and great features
[07:39] <MachineScrew> Wirwing: no not on an NTFS partition
[07:39] <sparkleytone> this is an impressively helpful channel
[07:39] <Fusion> here's my problem:  I downloaded the newest version...and in installation, it gets the part about copying packages to the hard disk, and i get an error about it not being able to copy them, and says the problem may be i burnt the cd wrong, and i did it 3 times using iso recorder...anyone have any ideas?
[07:39] <MachineScrew> you can make changes but it can't be writen to
[07:39] <sparkleytone> i remember my days of having lots of linux questions...i couldn't even get help if i didn't word the question exactly right
[07:39] <pitti> Fusion: if the CD medium is broken, burning it again won't help
[07:39] <sparkleytone> "my ethernet card won't grab an IP"
[07:39] <pitti> Fusion: the initial menu has an option to check CD integrity; you can use it
[07:39] <MachineScrew> Fusion: try a different CD brand ?
[07:40] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: so if i want to rename a mp3 archive localized in a Ntfs partition....i have to copy&paste in my Ubuntu partition first?
[07:40] <crimsun> morning, pitti :)
[07:40] <sparkleytone> "Your ethernet card does not grab IPs.  Ask the right question"
[07:40] <pitti> Fusion: and if it succeeds, it's an installer bug (but I guess it'll fail; we tested the flight-7 images very carefully)
[07:40] <pitti> hi crimsun
[07:40] <metajon> Fusion: what's the burn speed (I've encountered problems with CDs burned at > 8x on older drives)
[07:40] <MachineScrew> Wirwing some funny suff you would need to do
[07:40] <Fusion> well, i got fed up with that, so i used an old printed version of 5.04 i had and it just kept freezing on me. =\
[07:41] <vmadmin> tritium thanks tons of stuff out there
[07:41] <MachineScrew> Wirwing: you still have windows xp on the system
[07:41] <Fusion> well, i used iso recorder, and just right clicked on the iso and clicked copy to disc, and it really didn't ask for a cd speed
[07:41] <sparkleytone> Fusion: use a different optical drive?
[07:41] <MachineScrew> or is it on the network
[07:41] <intelikey> Fusion also you can continue without copying the remaining files to hard disk.....    try the server-install option at the boot prompt
[07:41] <MachineScrew> if on the network no problem using samba
[07:41] <sparkleytone> Fusion: were you here last night?
[07:41] <Fusion> nope.  i'm a n00b =D
[07:41] <ferronica> is there any theme for ubuntu
[07:41] <ferronica> good theme
[07:42] <MachineScrew> but on another HD on the same computer not good
[07:42] <sparkleytone> oh a GOOD theme?
[07:42] <sparkleytone> nope.
[07:42] <ferronica> lol
[07:42] <sparkleytone> ...
[07:42] <intelikey> Fusion then disreguard the "server-install" line above.
[07:42] <ferronica> theme for ubuntu
[07:42] <MachineScrew> ferronica: check it gnome-look.org art.gnome.org
[07:42] <Fusion> ill give those options you all gave me a try...i've got an old pc laying around that i'm going to turn into a dvr.  thanks for all the help
[07:43] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: Yep, im still using it, but i hate my RhythmBox Library, cause the Artist show me "The Academy is.....", "the academy is", "The Academy is" and stuff like that :S
[07:43] <Fusion> thanks again, if i can't get anything to work you'll be hearing from me again =)
[07:44] <MachineScrew> also try sudo apt-get install gnome-art
[07:44] <ferronica> how ti install using apt-get???
[07:44] <intelikey> i'm sure we'll be hearing from fusion again.   there is always a questio.
[07:44] <MachineScrew> Wirwing: well change it in windows then that change will be there next time you start linux
[07:45] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: And i cant rename cause when i run EasyTAG..... it only show me "/" and not the Xp one...
[07:45] <`paul> evrytime i login my 2 win partion is in readonly ive tried adding user option in fstab but still the same
[07:45] <Wirwing> MachineScrew: I think i will do that.... :-/
[07:45] <MachineScrew> ferronica: go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[07:45] <`paul> pls help
[07:46] <firebird619> What package name is gtk+-2.0 under. I tried gtk+-2.0 with no success. I then tried gtk which gave me alot of packages. Is the package name libgtk2.0-0?
[07:46] <ferronica> then??
[07:46] <SNAKESONAPLANE> firebird619: aptitude
[07:46] <MachineScrew> ferronica: then we need to check to see if you have some settings correct
[07:47] <MachineScrew> ferronica: go to Settings -> Repositories
[07:47] <ferronica> ok
[07:47] <ferronica> all r checked i think
[07:47] <SNAKESONAPLANE> firebird619: then do / and search for gtk
[07:47] <intelikey> `paul  readolny is the ,ro, / ,rw,  part.    or  ?mask=    man mount.   or read the link.
[07:47] <intelikey> !ntfs
[07:47] <ubotu> somebody said ntfs was the filesystem used in Windows NT and newer; to automatically mount your NTFS partition: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutomaticallyMountMSWindowsPartitions
[07:47] <MachineScrew> ferronica: so one says Universe
[07:47] <SNAKESONAPLANE> then do \ to search again and again
[07:48] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: yes
[07:48] <MachineScrew> cool
[07:48] <MachineScrew> then cancel
[07:48] <MachineScrew> and do a search for gnome-art
[07:48] <MachineScrew> should pop up
[07:48] <`paul> intel: well its "rw" and ive read that if its mounted but readonly then it must be using the nouser option
[07:49] <firebird619> SNAKESONAPLANE: I used Synaptic to search for it. I just want to know what the package name is. I am trying to install xfce but it says it needs gtk+-2 (2.6.0), but I am sure I already have it. I just can't remember the package name for it so I can be sure.
[07:49] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: where on website
[07:49] <intelikey> `paul i doubt that it is mounted ro....  mount   will verify.
[07:50] <`paul> can i paste the line produce by mount here?
[07:50] <muraii_> It appears that I'm regularly hit by some combination of RingZero, ReverseWWWTunnel, and/or Brown Orifice.
[07:50] <`paul> only one line
[07:50] <MachineScrew> ferronica: well the program gnome-art can download and install themes for gnome metacity and nautilus
[07:50] <fidxbox|away> clear
[07:50] <fidxbox|away> exit
[07:50] <pppoe_dude> hi
[07:50] <intelikey> `paul  only the one line pertaining to the partition in question
[07:50] <MachineScrew> Gnome are the contens of the window or controls
[07:50] <pppoe_dude> any ideas why flash video doesn't work in konqueror? (google video) it works fine on mozilla
[07:50] <MachineScrew> Metacity are the window borders
[07:50] <`paul> intelikey:  /dev/hda1 on /mnt/HD1 type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[07:50] <pppoe_dude> i get audio but no video
[07:51] <MachineScrew> and nautilus is the filesystem an application icons
[07:51] <intelikey> there you have it `paul it is not ro  it is rw
[07:51] <pppoe_dude> only a grey screen where the video is supposed to be
[07:51] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: what i do to download it
[07:51] <`paul> intelikey:  ro is readonly right?
[07:51] <intelikey> correct `paul
[07:51] <MachineScrew> ferronica: well synaptic will take care of that
[07:51] <`paul> intelikey:  i want it to be rightable
[07:51] <ferronica> what i type in terminal??
[07:51] <intelikey> yes. `paul it is.
[07:51] <`paul> intelikey:  the problem is evrytime i login as a regular user its readonly
[07:52] <MachineScrew> ferronica: you still have synaptic open
[07:52] <`paul> intelikey:  i mean i cant even create folders... T_T
[07:52] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: no
[07:52] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: cancelled it
[07:52] <MachineScrew> ferronica: open it back up the thing you want is in there
[07:52] <ferronica> cancelled*
[07:52] <MachineScrew> no no the whole window
[07:53] <intelikey> no your user has not write access.  the disk is not ro.    like i first said you need a  umask=  string in the fstab for that partition
[07:53] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: ok opened now??
[07:53] <`paul> umask=000?
[07:53] <hajuu> damn. its cool that I dont have to mount audio cds
[07:53] <intelikey> `paul add that in /etc/fstab
[07:53] <MachineScrew> ferronica: ok now click on the search icon
[07:53] <MachineScrew> in synaptic
[07:53] <ferronica> ok
[07:54] <sparkleytone> its not cool that it fakes a bunch of files that aren't on the cd
[07:54] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: then what i type there
[07:54] <`paul> ok wait
[07:54] <MachineScrew> ferronica: now search for gnome-art
[07:54] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: in package showing three
[07:55] <MachineScrew> then click on the box next to it
[07:55] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: no one is installed
[07:55] <MachineScrew> should say mark for install
[07:55] <`paul> intel: after saving ill do a mount -a right?
[07:55] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: all 3
[07:55] <intelikey> `paul here in the irc client type this without quotes. "/exec -o grep -e'/mnt/HD1' /etc/fstab "
[07:56] <MachineScrew> no just that one it will tell you that it need others say mark
[07:56] <`paul> intel: it worked thanks!!!!!! :D
[07:56] <`paul> fot ntfs it should be umask=0222 ryt?
[07:56] <MachineScrew> now what is checked
[07:56] <firebird619> Is the package name for gtk+-2.0 "libgtk2.0-0"?
[07:57] <intelikey> `paul for ntfs you may want to use fmask and dmask
[07:57] <Tomcat_> firebird619: Yes.
[07:57] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: i checked one,
[07:57] <intelikey> `paul again i sujest    man mount
[07:57] <intelikey> man is good.
[07:57] <intelikey> man man
[07:57] <MachineScrew> ferronica: ok and did it ask about installing other things
[07:57] <`paul> sorry
[07:57] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: yes yes
[07:58] <MachineScrew> and you click ok or mark
[07:58] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: what to do now???
[07:58] <firebird619> Tomcat: I am trying to install Xfce but it says I need gtk+-2.0 (2.6.0). According to Synaptic I have 2.86. What can I do to fix it?
[07:58] <MachineScrew> ferronica: ok now we click on apply
[07:58] <intelikey> man woman  >  E: no documentation found.
[07:58] <`paul> thanks for the help
[07:58] <`paul> lol
[07:58] <intelikey> :)
[07:59] <MachineScrew> ferronica: let it download and install the packages
[07:59] <`paul> well i doubt if those umask thing is in man mount T_T
[07:59] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: i think its downloding
[07:59] <intelikey> `paul it surely is.
[07:59] <Horaz> hey @everybody
[07:59] <`paul> :p o my bad
[07:59] <BlueEagle> `paul: I think they are.
[07:59] <MachineScrew> when the Applying Changes box gose away you can close synaptic
[08:00] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: now how could i know it installed my choice
[08:00] <intelikey> `paul there is even a   man fstab    with examples.
[08:00] <MachineScrew> ferronica: because the box next to it should be green instead of white
[08:00] <intelikey> why do we even write manpages and infopages..... ?
[08:01] <Horaz> that they trash the systems
[08:01] <Horaz> I think so ...
[08:01] <`paul> well its in there all right heh
[08:01] <ferronica> ok done
[08:01] <intelikey> i just said that.
[08:01] <MachineScrew> ferronica: now go to System -> Prefrences -> Art Manager
[08:01] <protocol1> intelikey, man pages are very handy for me.....so is online documentation
[08:02] <protocol1> i do take it for granted at that
[08:02] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: nothing is there lol, empty
[08:02] <`paul> but it says umask=value where value etc etc etc in octal
[08:02] <`paul> T_T
[08:02] <MachineScrew> ferronica: i know
[08:02] <intelikey> protocol1 yeah.  i know the answer.  it was a question filled with retoric
[08:02] <MachineScrew> now click on art
[08:02] <protocol1> ok
[08:02] <firebird619> What would cause the problem of, when installing Xfce, it saying I need GTK+-2.0 (2.6.0) when I already have GTK+-2.0 (2.8.6)?
[08:02] <MachineScrew> sellect one
[08:03] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: i selected theme
[08:03] <MachineScrew> For me i did Art > Backgrounds > Gnome
[08:03] <ferronica> i think its d/l something
[08:03] <intelikey> `paul yes and you should either learn the octal code for linux file attributes or ask.
[08:03] <MachineScrew> ya it will
[08:03] <MachineScrew> takes a bit
[08:04] <MachineScrew> ferronica: there is another way to change themes
[08:04] <`paul> heh okok next time ill do a man first search then ask hehe
[08:04] <MachineScrew> but first you have to have some that program gets themes from only art.gnome.org
[08:04] <MachineScrew> gnome-look.org has some themes as well
[08:05] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: let it d/l first
[08:05] <MachineScrew> all very simple to install
[08:05] <amicrawler> how do i do a sudo install apt get ?
[08:05] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: 65% done
[08:05] <Horaz> sudo apt-get install Blub
[08:06] <rohan> who can please donate some love - https://launchpad.net/bugs/40069 ?
[08:06] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: done
[08:06] <MachineScrew> cool
[08:06] <MachineScrew> now sellect one
[08:07] <MachineScrew> you can preview it install it what ever you need done
[08:07] <ferronica> MachinrScrew: which one u use??????????/
[08:07] <MachineScrew> ferronica: the default ;D
[08:08] <MachineScrew> I tend to use a blue theme
[08:08] <amicrawler> how do i add debian  src  apt get stuff to snaptic?
[08:08] <intelikey> `paul you will be primarily concerned with the last three digits of octal premissions.  they are a octal display of three, three digit binarry marks.   the first shows the owners permission the second the group then everybody else(world)    the binary numbers are   read write execute.  111 = 7 octal    so  755  would be  111 101 101 = rwx r_x r_x
[08:08] <MachineScrew> my gf like the blue ness
[08:08] <Flannel> amicrawler: you don't. Usually things don't work right.
[08:08] <amicrawler> oh i'm new to debian
[08:09] <ferronica> ok done
[08:09] <amicrawler> i use to rpms
[08:09] <amicrawler> from suse
[08:09] <j1p> is there a program that can help me re-map my keyboard customly, hopefully with profiles for easy switching?
[08:09] <MachineScrew> did it change it
[08:09] <MachineScrew> for you
[08:09] <ferronica> yessssssssssssssss
[08:09] <MachineScrew> cool
[08:09] <Madpilot> amicrawler, what app are you looking for?
[08:10] <pppoe_dude> are there any alternatives to the non-free flash player?
[08:10] <amicrawler> all the games that i could get in suse from src
[08:10] <MachineScrew> now to change it manuly in System > Prefrences > Themes
[08:10] <pppoe_dude> *plgin
[08:10] <ferronica> not its hot
[08:10] <zcat[1] > kino failing to import mjpeg clips from my canon A75, any suggestions? details at http://pastebin.com/704624
[08:10] <Madpilot> amicrawler, do you have the Universe repo enabled in Ubuntu?
[08:10] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: not any that is good
[08:10] <intelikey> pppoe_dude not using flash is a really good alternative imo
[08:10] <amicrawler> yes
[08:10] <polpak> `paul: you can also just use the non-geek method which would be      u=rwx,go=rx
[08:10] <amicrawler> i do
[08:10] <pppoe_dude> intelikey: i need to watch google video
[08:10] <amicrawler> and resrticted
[08:11] <amicrawler> but it is not what i'm looking for
[08:11] <pppoe_dude> intelikey: but i agree btw
[08:11] <intelikey> polpak that doesn't help in knowing how to set ?mask= settings.
[08:11] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: just get the non free one
[08:11] <Madpilot> amicrawler, which apps, then? (I've never run Suse, got no idea what's available for that distro...)
[08:11] <polpak> intelikey: true enough
[08:11] <amicrawler> any thing
[08:11] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: its not working with konqueror, only audio, and with firefox, only video
[08:12] <j1p> is there an app that allows you to remap keys?
[08:12] <orbin> i've been a *long* time dialup user.  our family desktop (xp)  just got connected w/ cable.  is it possible to get my ubuntu laptop to use the connection?  if so, what do i do?  i know it has wireless capability.
[08:12] <Madpilot> amicrawler, you really do need to be less vague than "anything"...
[08:12] <amicrawler> i can run mandrake rpms and redhat  and fedora core rpms and suse
[08:12] <protocol1> !kaffeine
[08:12] <ubotu> protocol1: Do they come in packets of five. Try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/
[08:12] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: you did a scan for new plugins
[08:12] <polpak> orbin: the easy way would be to get a cable/dsl router
[08:12] <Madpilot> amicrawler, look for .deb files, if you're certain that what you want isn't in Ubuntu's repos...
[08:12] <amicrawler> kaffeine sux
[08:12] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: yes, it partially works, so i know it recognises it, it just doesnt work right...
[08:12] <amicrawler> i'm loooking for asid rip
[08:13] <polpak> orbin: the slightly more difficult way would be to connect both computers to a LAN, and use the desktop to nat/gateway
[08:13] <intelikey> polpak actually every body should at least attempt to wrap their head around octal/binarry permissions.  if they are going to admin their own system
[08:13] <amicrawler> and  wintv card apps
[08:13] <MachineScrew> amicrawler: asid rip ??
[08:13] <pppoe_dude> almost seems as if video is disabled for some reason
[08:13] <Flannel> amicrawler: its the "acidrip" package.
[08:13] <MachineScrew> amicrawler: try kmplayer
[08:13] <amicrawler> have it
[08:13] <MachineScrew> KwinTV Myth TV???
[08:14] <amicrawler> and amrokn does not work
[08:14] <MachineScrew> libxine-extracodecs if in dapper
[08:14] <orbin> polpak: right.  like i said, i'm new to broadband.  the laptop had a brochure on wireless.  it showed a wireless router connected to the wired computer....the instructions were for xp though.  is it easy to set up in ubuntu?
[08:14] <amicrawler> mp3  jumbles but and amrko crashes
[08:14] <MachineScrew> if not amarok-xine
[08:14] <pppoe_dude> http://www.mtholyoke.edu/campaign/tour/html/detect/plugin.html <-- I get a positive result for flash from this site, however, i still don't get google video
[08:14] <roaet> ello
[08:15] <roaet> Is there a way to get the ubuntu install to use LILO instead of GRUB?
[08:15] <roaet> can I just type "expert" at the install CD prompt and do it as a debian installation?
[08:15] <j1p> you can choose it in the install at some point
[08:15] <Flannel> roaet: yeah, select lilo instead of grub.  You need to use the expert install.
[08:15] <pppoe_dude> i guess it could be a bug with google video
[08:15] <j1p> if you use XFS fs they install lilo automatically as well
[08:15] <polpak> orbin: a wireless router is fairly trivial to set up. You just connect the router to your cable modem, the destop and laptop to the router (via wired or wireless). It's very simple to do
[08:15] <roaet> I'm trying to unstall ubuntu on a MacBook Pro
[08:15] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: let me try
[08:15] <intelikey> roaet absoposalutly
[08:15] <roaet> unstall = install
[08:16] <roaet> Anyone know of it working?
[08:16] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: what is the google video address
[08:16] <Flannel> roaet: yeah, it works.
[08:16] <roaet> just use the install CD?
[08:16] <Flannel> Oh, macbook.  Sorry, missed that.  Thought we were tlaking about grub.  I imagine it works.  Google it.
[08:16] <pppoe_dude> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-869183917758574879 MachineScrew
[08:17] <intelikey> roaet expert method or even default.  if you refues to tell it where to install grub to will let you choose lilo
[08:17] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: i get a grey screen and audio
[08:17] <MachineScrew> nope it works for me
[08:17] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: however, with youtube.com, i get video
[08:17] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: try mininova
[08:17] <pppoe_dude> konqueror tells me theres coding erors on page
[08:17] <MachineScrew> they have it in xvid
[08:17] <orbin> right.  guess i'll go look for a wireless router then.  any suggestions for brands? i.e. any problematic ones w/ linux/ubuntu?
[08:17] <eggzeck> pppoe_dude, do you have swf-player?
[08:18] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: it works here in FF
[08:18] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: ok thanks :) google video usually allows me to download videos (free ones)
[08:18] <intelikey> roaet i can't answer the Mac quesion,  i'm mac illeterate
[08:18] <roaet> as am i
[08:18] <roaet> but I'm getting used to it
[08:18] <roaet> I just got windows installed.
[08:18] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: and the xvid is in much higher quality
[08:18] <pppoe_dude> eggzeck: i have the gstreamer version ya
[08:18] <roaet> About to do linux.. The wiki uses gentoo, but I prefer ubuntu
[08:18] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: whats FF?
[08:18] <orbin> j1p: yes, there are keyboard remappers in the repos.  one in particular i've seen recommended, but i've forgotten it.  do an apt search on "keyboard frontend"
[08:18] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: FireFox
[08:19] <pppoe_dude> MachineScrew: oh... yes it works on FF for me too... no audio but i think its an esd problem there
[08:19] <eggzeck> pppoe_dude, apt-get install swf-player
[08:19] <intelikey> oh crap. apt just installed bash.
[08:19] <MachineScrew> pppoe_dude: but that software version of the plugin could be the problem try removing that plugin
[08:19] <intelikey> Setting up bash (3.0-13) ...
[08:19] <intelikey> i had removed that....
[08:19] <eggzeck> pppoe_dude, use 'sudo'
[08:20] <orbin> polpak: right.  guess i'll go look for a wireless router then.  any suggestions for brands? i.e. any problematic ones w/ linux/ubuntu?
[08:20] <MachineScrew> Acidrip kinda pissed me off
[08:20] <MachineScrew> the command it uses to rip to xvid is out of date
[08:21] <MachineScrew> shouldn't be -ovc xvid -xvidencopts :bitrate=4109
[08:21] <MachineScrew> should be -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=4109
[08:21] <MachineScrew> just that little collen made the big diffrence
[08:22] <MachineScrew> so I told it to export the command and edited it
[08:22] <jtd> what do you guys recommend for doing LaTeX?  what's the correct package set to install for compiling BiBTeX and LaTeX, and is there a good IDE out there for it?
[08:22] <MachineScrew> ran it and works great
[08:22] <polpak> orbin: nope. they're all pretty compatable. The real trick will be your wireless nic in the laptop. Make sure that's compatable
[08:22] <AnAnt> where does Ubuntu mount shares that I connect to using the "Connect to server" menu item that's in gnome ?
[08:22] <orbin> jtd: latex-bin for latex stuff.  lyx if you want an IDE
[08:22] <jtd> thanks, orbin :)
[08:23] <cricek_ub> guys good webcam streaming software is ?
[08:23] <MachineScrew> orbin: there is a wireless compatibility list
[08:23] <jtd> orbin: E: Couldn't find package latex-bin
[08:23] <orbin> MachineScrew: polpak: ok. one sec. i'll just grab my laptop and give you the lspci output
[08:23] <pppoe_dude> flash video sucks anyway, uses like 70% CPU
[08:24] <polpak> orbin: use pastebin
[08:24] <MachineScrew> orbin: look here
[08:24] <MachineScrew> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards
[08:24] <intelikey> ok. i got bash and passwd removed again..... feels more like home now.
[08:24] <jtd> orbin: it's actually tetex-*
[08:24] <orbin> jtd: sorry, tetex-bin ... i'm not on my ubuntu machine unforutnately :)
[08:25] <orbin> jtd: yes, i normally double-check. sorry
[08:25] <cricek_ub> MachineScrew, my Netgear wg311T works great
[08:26] <cricek_ub> except on amd64 machine
[08:26] <Toma-> anyone else find that using gnomebaker is a good way to make lots of drink coasters and frisbees?
[08:26] <cricek_ub> Toma-, yes
[08:26] <Toma-> :|
[08:26] <cricek_ub> I use K3B ....
[08:26] <cricek_ub> or maybe I can't configure GB right
[08:27] <Toma-> ahh i just installed that the other day. dunno why im not using it.
[08:27] <intelikey> i prefer xcdroast
[08:27] <Toma-> for audio?
[08:27] <cricek_ub> yeah but it lacks features for creating audio CD
[08:27] <cricek_ub> ahm ...I think
[08:27] <intelikey> it does aud
[08:28] <Toma-> i c
[08:28] <cricek_ub> :)
[08:28] <cafe> The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.
[08:28] <cricek_ub> xcdroast then :)
[08:28] <cricek_ub> k3b is very user friendly by the way and with my sister that realy counts
[08:28] <MachineScrew> cricek_ub: my ATT Wireless works OOTB
[08:28] <orbin> polpak, MachineScrew: should i be looking at the wireless LAN controller in lspci?
[08:29] <MachineScrew> yes
[08:29] <cricek_ub> OOTB ??
[08:29] <cricek_ub> :)
[08:29] <Toma-> well it just crashed on me.
[08:29] <Toma-> sigh.
[08:29] <MachineScrew> lspci -v | less
[08:29] <intelikey> yeah that's probably why i don't like it as much.... it's to M$'ish
[08:29] <MachineScrew> Out Of The Box
[08:29] <cricek_ub> MachineScrew, sure
[08:29] <cricek_ub> :)
[08:29] <orbin> MachineScrew, polpak: Broadcom Corp. BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN controller (rev 03)
[08:30] <MachineScrew> orbin: ndiswrapper
[08:30] <Toma-> gah.
[08:30] <cricek_ub> Anyway I'll get my wire soon in this room
[08:30] <polpak> orbin: seems fine then. Just be sure to get a type G router
[08:30] <orbin> polpak: type G?  like i said, new to broadband
[08:30] <cricek_ub> the only thing I miss on linux is support for 108MB/s
[08:31] <MachineScrew> orbin: ya
[08:31] <cricek_ub> that both router and wireless support
[08:31] <MachineScrew> G is faster
[08:31] <aaron> haw do i get frost whire
[08:31] <polpak> !frostwire
[08:31] <orbin> MachineScrew: oh, ok
[08:31] <polpak> !tell aaron about frostwire
[08:31] <MachineScrew> and shure to be compatible stay away from pre-n stuff
[08:31] <Flannel> orbin: 802.11g is faster than .11a or .11b, g things are downward compatable to .11b
[08:31] <cricek_ub> so anyone here tried any webcam streaming software
[08:31] <orbin> Flannel: thankyou
[08:31] <cricek_ub> I tried motion
[08:32] <cricek_ub> but it uses too much bandwidth
[08:32] <MachineScrew> 802.11n is supposed to be fast and better than 802.11g but isn't stanardised yet
[08:32] <intelikey> dpkg - warning, overriding problem because --force enabled:   Removing login ...
[08:32] <intelikey> Purging configuration files for login ...
[08:32] <cafuego> orbin: Dapper supports that with a native driver as well.

[08:32] <ubotu> To use your broadcom or airport extreme card, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx for info and firmware.
[08:32] <zcat[1] > actually I can't import any video.. yes ffmpeg and mplayer and mencoder and w32codecs are installed.
[08:33] <orbin> cafuego: thanks for the link
[08:33] <cricek_ub> any video ? zcat[1]
[08:33] <vars> zcat[1] , hey i can't get on to the internet with my other computer now
[08:33] <zcat[1] > 'mjpoeg from my camera, mpeg or mp4 or anything else from anywhere else.. they should get automagically converted. Everyone else says it just works. It won't work for me, on three different machines.
[08:34] <orbin> now, a stupid question: i'm guessing the usage is shared among all computers connected to the router.  do i just login w/ the same username/password on the laptop?
[08:35] <delmar> hey everyone.. im trying to get teamspeak to play nicely with the other audio apps/games that i wanna run but its hogging the audio hardware.. .whats the story with getting things to "mix" audio nicely?
[08:35] <AnAnt> I got a problem in Ubuntu, I put this in my fstab: //sysdpdc/globalshare /home/ant1/mnt/globalshare cifs user,username=myusername,noauto,exec 0 0
[08:35] <AnAnt> now I try to pmount /home/ant1/mnt/globalshare/ , it asks me for a password, so I supply it, and it won't mount, giving me this error: "Operation not permitted"
[08:35] <AnAnt> yet, if i mount as root, it will accept, why's that ?
[08:35] <intelikey> hmmm this presents a challange... "tty9 [I have no name!#~]  whoami
[08:35] <intelikey> whoami: cannot find username for UID 0
[08:36] <intelikey> it must parse the /etc/passwd file...
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: pmount currently doesn't support mounting NFS shares
[08:36] <AnAnt> ic
[08:36] <AnAnt> thx
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: mount them with normal 'mount' command
[08:36] <intelikey> which doesn't exist on this box
[08:36] <AnAnt> pitti: wait, I can pmount when I am root
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: (as root), or add the 'user' option to mount it as user
[08:36] <orbin> or is there even a need to login?  do i just get a working connection when i set the drivers up?
[08:36] <pitti> AnAnt: well, the thing is, pmount behaves exactly like mount for stuff in /etc/fstab
[08:37] <AnAnt> pitti: I did add the user option
[08:37] <pitti> AnAnt: oh, I see

[08:37] <dushy> hello all :)
[08:37] <mlalkaka> will Dapper Drake come with Xgl or AIGLX? If so, which one?
[08:37] <dushy> i have a problem in viewing video files.. can any one fix my problem?
[08:38] <intelikey> orbin ssh ?    you can ssh username@hostip
[08:38] <driggers> hello.  i have a rather general question.  why is it so hard (for me, a relative linux newbie) to install programs on linux ( i have ubuntu).  i download files with long, incomprehensible names, use programs that give a lot of errors.  unpack stuff, do a lot of trial and error w/ the words config and make, find i'm missing essential parts of my compiler and end up making a big mess
[08:38] <pitti> mlalkaka: you can install xserver-xgl and play with it, but it's not supported in dapper
[08:38] <driggers> there is a point to this btw
[08:38] <zcat[1] > kino failing to import mjpeg clips from my canon A75, any suggestions? details at http://pastebin.com/704624
[08:38] <driggers> is there something obvious i'm missing?  like maybe a "how do do your basic program installation guide and where important things are and go in you linux machine guide?"
[08:39] <intelikey> driggers because you are not installing via the package manager.
[08:39] <zcat[1] > driggers: because you're thinking like a windows user
[08:39] <vars> hey ia am trying to run apt-get update and i get i can't stat source package
[08:39] <dushy> i have problem in viewing my video files.. i can hear only sound but no pic.. why so?
[08:39] <driggers> ... what if i want something  that's not in the... package list?
[08:39] <driggers> (mac user)
[08:39] <orbin> intelikey: er, i don't think you were following my thread :)  i was asking if i need to login when i get my wireless laptop setup w/ the wired computer via a router or if it just automagically connects
[08:39] <dushy> hey zsct :)
[08:39] <mneptok> driggers: like ... ?
[08:39] <driggers> skype
[08:39] <driggers> and... a bittorrent client that works
[08:39] <mlalkaka> pitti, what about AIGLX?
[08:39] <zcat[1] > there are 17,000 programs in the main repos. There are third party repos.
[08:39] <intelikey> !tell driggers about skype
[08:40] <poningru> driggers: what?
[08:40] <poningru> oh
[08:40] <pitti> mlalkaka: it's not yet packaged officially AFAICS
[08:40] <poningru> driggers: easyubuntu
[08:40] <vars> zcat[1] ,   i can't get my internet to work again
[08:40] <poningru> !tell driggers about easyubuntu

[08:40] <vars> i've restarted my computer like six times
[08:40] <poningru> zcat[1] : try diva
[08:40] <Flannel> driggers: yes.
[08:41] <zcat[1] > sorry. I'm not elping anyone else until I get kino sorted.
[08:41] <poningru> oh gnoes
[08:41] <dushy> any one want to try my problem plz? :(
[08:41] <zcat[1] > what's diva?
[08:41] <vladuz976> anybody here know how i can use gnuplot to plot data from an openoffice spreadsheet? how do i feed the data?
[08:41] <vars> zcat[1] , you should try lives
[08:41] <intelikey> !tell driggers about repos
[08:41] <Flannel> driggers: in ubuntu, most people would never need to compile anything from source.
[08:41] <vars> yeah what is diva?
[08:42] <driggers> Flannel so which binary do i download?
[08:42] <zcat[1] > I want kino. it's supposed to work.
[08:42] <driggers> what kind of name would it have
[08:42] <vars> how do i reconfigure a dsl connection?
[08:42] <Flannel> driggers: you search for it, in synaptic, search name and description.
[08:42] <mneptok> vars: do you use a router, or connect the DSL modem directly to your computer?
[08:43] <Flannel> driggers: for whatever you were looking for.
[08:43] <intelikey> driggers why are you downloading anything ?
[08:43] <poningru> http://www.diva-project.org/
[08:43] <driggers> uhm... why not?
[08:43] <poningru> driggers: hehe
[08:43] <Flannel> driggers: you install stuff via synaptic.
[08:43] <driggers> skype not in synaptic
[08:43] <driggers> oh. nvm someone pmed me about it
[08:43] <poningru> !easyubuntu
[08:43] <zcat[1] > vars: plug modem in and type 'sudo dhclient' - that should reconfigure it.
[08:43] <vars> mneptok, nevermind
[08:44] <Flannel> yeah, easyubuntu is the way to go for that.
[08:44] <zcat[1] > modem/router/pos
[08:44] <vars> zcat[1] , ha that is waht i did
[08:44] <zcat[1] > sorry, i wasn't helping.
[08:44] <intelikey> well if you want to be in here whining about how hard it is to install anything on linux.... keep downloading.    if you would rather do it the easy way. use the package manager.
[08:44] <vars> and it worked
[08:44] <poningru> oh nm
[08:44] <zcat[1] > vars: good. know anything about kino? :)
[08:45] <vars> i know that lives is top notch cinnerella grade, but it works
[08:45] <vars> i tried to use kino but it didn't fly
[08:45] <vars> i am sorry
[08:45] <intelikey> what package is su in?   is that in login ?
[08:45] <zcat[1] > yeah, ok. at least someone else agrees kino is borked!
[08:46] <vars> zcat[1] , what are you doing?
[08:46] <zcat[1] > where is lives/ got a repo?
[08:46] <vars> video editing right
[08:46] <vars> just a sec
[08:46] <poningru> intelikey: filling a bug?
[08:46] <zcat[1] > trying to (ironically) edit a series of videos I'm doing to compare winXP wuth Ubuntu in terms of useability!
[08:46] <AlmtyBob> is smb enabled by default on Ubuntu?
[08:46] <poningru> AlmtyBob: only client
[08:46] <poningru> not server
[08:46] <AlmtyBob> ah ok
[08:47] <cafe> were i can find a sample OJT certificates that i can open in openoffice writer
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> I should apt-get some samba server?
[08:47] <poningru> yep
[08:47] <zcat[1] > and it's fscking KILLING me that I might have to use Windows to edit it!@
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> thanks
[08:47] <poningru> well no
[08:47] <intelikey> poningru no. it's not a bug.  just thought i might actually need that file, seeing that i use it to open the initial console
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> trying to setup mythtv on my xbox
[08:47] <poningru> AlmtyBob: its already installed you just have to turn it on iirc
[08:47] <delmar> ok this is pretty lame. I should be able to have multiple applications sharing the audio hardware.
[08:47] <AlmtyBob> err an xbmc mythtv frontend
[08:47] <zcat[1] > everything else I have never had a problem. Video editing is easy in Windows and damn near impossible in Linux.
[08:48] <delmar> What am i missing here with ubuntu... why isn't it mixing the audio correctly.
[08:48] <vars> zcat[1] ,
[08:48] <vars> deb http://people.ubuntubrasil.org/~rclbelem/lives/breezy/ binary/
[08:48] <vars> do you run dapper
[08:48] <poningru> AlmtyBob: um why use smb for that/
[08:48] <zcat[1] > thanks!!
[08:48] <poningru> ?
[08:48] <zcat[1] > yes, dapper
[08:48] <vars> just replace the breezy with dapper
[08:48] <AlmtyBob> poningru: it uses a python script, the script gets the recordings/buffer by connecting to a samba share of the vids
[08:48] <poningru> ah ic
[08:48] <vars> deb http://people.ubuntubrasil.org/~rclbelem/lives/dapper/ binary/
[08:48] <poningru> did not know that
[08:48] <AlmtyBob> ghetto fabolous, but the interface is very nice
[08:48] <driggers> if i try to install skype (w/ apt-get) while updating the system, might i get an error b/c of this?
[08:49] <intelikey> delmar in the apps settings tell them to use esd  or alsa
[08:49] <poningru> hehe one of my friends is a dev
[08:49] <AlmtyBob> of xbmc?
[08:49] <poningru> mythtv
[08:49] <delmar> intelikey, is there a "device" i can point it to ?
[08:49] <AlmtyBob> ah
[08:49] <orbin> driggers: you'd probably get a dpkg lock error
[08:49] <vars> zcat[1] , install everything it suggest   and check out the web page at http://lives.sourceforge.net/index.php?do=home
[08:49] <intelikey> delmar dsp
[08:49] <AlmtyBob> xbmc is the greatest thing since sliced bread
[08:49] <delmar> intelikey, it is
[08:49] <poningru> hehe
[08:50] <delmar> intelikey, as soon as i fire up.. TeamSpeak for example... and its using /dev/dsp ... other stuff wont output sound until i close TS.
[08:50] <driggers> orbin:  aaah!  get out of my computer!
[08:50] <intelikey> delmar but you need to tell the apps not to try to write dirrectly.  but to use esd
[08:50] <AlmtyBob> poningru: totally worth it, especially if you have an hd/edtv?
[08:50] <AlmtyBob> -?
[08:50] <zcat[1] > apt thinks I should get a new kernel..
[08:51] <zcat[1] > might as well :) then I'll try lives.
[08:51] <intelikey> !teamspeak
[08:51] <ubotu> intelikey: I don't know, try searching at http://ubuntu.cc.com.au/

[08:51] <GreySim> I'm in full agreeance of XBMC being brilliant, by the way.  :)
[08:51] <driggers> armagetron advanced.  video game
[08:51] <intelikey> delmar i have seen your question, many times.  check the wiki's and forums
[08:52] <BlueEagle> greysim: brilliant as in Paula Bean (thedailywtf.com)?
[08:52] <poningru> delmar: what are you looking for?
[08:52] <zcat[1] > perhaps someone could put lives in eft?
[08:52] <delmar> intelikey, something must be screwed up because i just installed Audacity, and it bombs as soon as i start it.. "there was an error initialising the audio i/o layer " blah blah.. and under prefs. there is no audio in/out device to choose
[08:53] <BlueEagle> delmar: Audacity doesn't like ESD as far as I remember.
[08:53] <vars> zcat[1] ,  they are over in #lives   hardly anyone around
[08:53] <vars> -- time for bed
[08:53] <delmar> ah ok
[08:53] <zcat[1] > bookmarked the page anyhow.. thanks heaps vars!
[08:53] <delmar> well thats another problem again then i guess.
[08:53] <BlueEagle> delmar: Try using alsa w/o the software daemon.
[08:53] <zcat[1] > hope it works :)
[08:53] <vars> hey what do i need to ad to my repos to get mplayer?
[08:53] <intelikey> yeah.
[08:53] <vars> zcat[1] , it is funky

[09:21] <Baldev> Otherwise, my linux install is 100% useless :]
[09:22] <rabbitear> Baldev, might wanna check in #wireless if you can get somebody to talk...
[09:23] <rabbitear> Baldev, they are pretty good, and the FAQ of theirs is okay too
[09:23] <Baldev> Ok
[09:24] <rabbitear> Baldev, what kind of card anyway?
[09:24] <Baldev> Wel
[09:24] <Baldev> Well, I have two different choices
[09:24] <rabbitear> 802.11b/g or cell gprs?
[09:24] <Baldev> One is a Motorola WPCI810G
[09:24] <Baldev> eh
[09:24] <Baldev> b
[09:24] <Baldev> and g
[09:24] <Baldev> one PCI and one USB
[09:25] <rabbitear> just courious if it was a cell card.... don't know anything about that card, but usually the PCI stuff works *before* the usb...
[09:25] <Baldev> heh
[09:26] <Baldev> I haven't actually tried the PCI
[09:26] <rabbitear> in my limited experience
[09:26] <Baldev> However
[09:26] <Baldev> When I booted with the USB
[09:26] <Baldev> It .. recognized it in a sense
[09:26] <adrigen> excuse me anyone. but do you know if i can upload a compressed file to a server and then uncompress it on the server? if so what is the command line ofr unziping it?
[09:26] <Baldev> In the device manager.. or something like that
[09:26] <Baldev> It said Motorola Wireless USB etc et
[09:26] <Baldev> c
[09:26] <Baldev> But I couldn't activiate it
[09:26] <Baldev> I'm a linux noob.. so...
[09:27] <Baldev> I don't know if there's anything else to do, or.. if I'm just SOL.
[09:27] <rabbitear> I have a D-link USB card, that works, but not 100% of the time, more like 50% of the time, so I switched to a pcmcia.. and back to ethernet for the desktop
[09:27] <Baldev> O.o
[09:27] <Baldev> I only have a deskto
[09:27] <Baldev> p
[09:27] <Baldev> I can't use ethernet, either
[09:27] <Baldev> There's something fsked up with the power lines in the walls
[09:27] <Baldev> I tried the powerline adaptors
[09:27] <rabbitear> google the card(s) at http://google.com/linux
[09:27] <adrigen> no one?
[09:28] <vars> zcat[1] , are you looking for them for lives?

[09:31] <vars> and that has a lot of what you need
[09:31] <vars> zcat[1] , good luck
[09:31] <vars> good night
[09:31] <Baldev> what?
[09:31] <Baldev> I have a usb wireless card
[09:31] <Baldev> and a pci card
[09:31] <Baldev> I'm hesitant to use the PCI card though, because it's on my main system and I already have a lot of things plugged into it
[09:32] <Wirwing> dli: i think than ure not understanding me.... when i open a mpg or wmv file, i CANT see the video, but i can hear the audio...
[09:32] <rabbitear> Baldev, ask Wireless ...
[09:32] <Wirwing> dli: i'm using Totem to view the file
[09:32] <rabbitear> Baldev, some knowledgable guys there, ndiswrapper *I beleive* doesn't run USB cards
[09:32] <dli> Wirwing, yes, try mplayer
[09:32] <Baldev> hm
[09:32] <Baldev> well.. i'll try it

[09:46] <thoreauputic> oo - boon - too   ( more or less )
[09:46] <Steve|> ah k

[09:47] <thoreauputic> Steil_: yw :)
[09:48] <AlmtyBob> what do I put in smb.conf so that samba won't require a username or password for accessing my shares?
[09:48] <zcat[1] > what are eft's tests going to be called? swim1.. ?
[09:49] <zcat[1] > AlmtyBob: change authentication from user to share
[09:49] <thoreauputic> zcat[1] : landings maybe ? *g*
[09:49] <zcat[1] > And eft's a fish, right?
[09:49] <AlmtyBob> zcat[1] : I put "security = share" in there, do I need to restart smbd?
[09:49] <thoreauputic> zcat[1] : no, a newt
[09:49] <hyphenated> AlmtyBob: of course you need to restart :-)
[09:49] <zcat[1] > ahh yes /etc/init.d/samba restart
[09:49] <hyphenated> it's not magical
[09:49] <AlmtyBob> ah ok I was trying smbd restart
[09:49] <hyphenated> or 'reload'
[09:50] <AlmtyBob> hmm, did that but it still says "The account is not authorized to log in from this station."
[09:51] <AlmtyBob> when I try to connect through my windows box
[09:51] <manuvcube> what's the default MTA in Ubuntu? (can't find sendmail)
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> oh
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> it helps to UNCOMMENT the line in the .conf
[09:52] <firebird619> What package do I need when getting a XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool?
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> hah thanks hyphenated/zcat[1]
[09:52] <mikedep333> almtybob: sometimes the windows command "net use" helps resolve those
[09:52] <thoreauputic> manuvcube: there isn't one by default - you can install one ( used to be postfix)
[09:52] <AlmtyBob> f5 worked just fine 8)
[09:52] <manuvcube> thoreauputic:  thx, will do so now
[09:52] <hyphenated> AlmtyBob: haha yeah, uncommenting helps a lot :-)
