[12:01] <zephod> lo
[12:01] <XxTwitchxX> Does anyone know how to change the login splash screen on GNOME?
[12:01] <vulcanium> TheGateKeeper: alsaconf
[12:02] <xtime> S.a.
[12:02] <babwe2> <Gabby_Hayes well I believe so it wazz in the repo
[12:02] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: well it's not in the repos
[12:03] <vulcanium> TheGateKeeper: well, can't I get around that somehow still?
[12:03] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: I suppose you could get a debian version (don't know if that would work) or compile it
[12:03] <Gabby_Hayes> babwe2 .. can you get to the internet via a terminal, and re-install that app?
[12:03] <vulcanium> well its owrth a try at this point I think
[12:03] <nattfodd> hi
[12:03] <itchi> XxTwitchxX: Type 'gnome splash themes' in google. take the first result
[12:03] <TheGateKeeper> !sound
[12:03] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure alsa is selected by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (Alsa Mixer). If you are still having problems with sound, then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[12:03] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: ^^^^
[12:03] <nattfodd> would anyone happen to know how to make a manual kernel recompilation work?
[12:03] <nattfodd> compile works fine but I can't boot on it
[12:05] <babwe2> well I tried that but cant download it, or that wazz earlier tday maybe now, let me try again
[12:05] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: dev's attitude seems to be, if it doesn't work file a bug
[12:05] <TheGateKeeper> vulcanium: at least that is what they told me
[12:05] <itchi> !YACOC
[12:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about YACOC - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:06] <itchi> ugh, it's Yet Another Cup Of Coffe, ubotu :-p
[12:06] <Dreamglider> i have booted the liveCD i have acces to my Windows partion and my usb disk but i cant drag n drop files from the NTFS to the FAT32 help
[12:06] <foo> I am trying to set up an ssh user and chroot him so all he can do is ssh in to me, and then ssh out... and that's it. I followed this: http://www.ffnn.nl/pages/articles/linux/setting-up-a-chroot-jail-for-cvs.php#contentstart - but for some reason, the user isn't able to login. Any ideas?
[12:06] <andy__> hi all, when ever I run a KDE program, It says that I can write the config files for it.  On the other hand, I can run the program without any errors if I run it as a Suuper user.  Is there a way to get permission to write these config files (to the .kde folder) without being in SU?
[12:06] <CVirus> anybody succeeded in getting the Wireless Broadcom 4311 to work ?
[12:07] <tecywiz121> any know of a filesystem that works read/write in both windows and linux other than fat?
[12:07] <babwe2> Gabby_Hayes let me go to my other pc where im running 5.10 v running drake
[12:07] <khedron> ext2 does with a win32 driver afaik
[12:07] <vulcanium> tecywiz121: you can get an ext2 driver for windows
[12:07] <vulcanium> I had issues with it personaly
[12:08] <vulcanium> decided to just use fat32
[12:08] <tecywiz121> vulcanium: is that all?
[12:08] <lostinc> hi I know I have asked this before but I have items in my Trash can that will not delete with the standard empty trash command can anyone tell me a way to empty the trash can via a command line?
[12:09] <tecywiz121> or are there others?
[12:09] <Phlosten> lostinc: go to .Trash and use the 'rm' command
[12:09] <mumbles> NUTT?
[12:09] <finalbeta> Ehm, if I delete a ln -s link, I will not be deleting the files it pount to right?
[12:09] <finalbeta> it's a directory
[12:09] <BHSPitLappy> correct
[12:09] <LjL> finalbeta: no, that shouldn't happen
[12:09] <finalbeta> ok, thnx
[12:09] <georgy> finalbeta : right
[12:10] <sidny4> CVirus, have you tried disabling the bcm43xx driver in modprobe and using ndiswrapper?
[12:10] <BHSPitLappy> you can even make a dummy file and link just to test your methods
[12:10] <Phlosten> lostinc: you will probably need to use 'sudo rm' if they are not going the usual way
[12:10] <CVirus> sidny4: yes
[12:10] <CVirus> sidny4: I'ev been working on this chipset for a month to get it working
[12:10] <BHSPitLappy> well, I give up.
[12:10] <BHSPitLappy> I'm rebooting my desktop to windows just to use the wireless card.
[12:11] <BHSPitLappy> Windows 1, Linux 0.
[12:11] <sidny4> CVirus, are you getting any sort of error message?
[12:11] <lostinc> Thank you. That seemed to work great. Now I need to get the trash can icon to change. I suppose that a reboot may work.
[12:11] <AsheD> I have decided while playing GnomeBreakout that the odds of the ball getting stuck inside part of something are directly proportional to how well you are doing
[12:12] <Phlosten> lostinc: no, if you have actually emptied all the trash it should change itself
[12:12] <gnomefreak> AsheD: can you please take non-support issues to #ubuntu-offtopic
[12:12] <CVirus> sidny4: before using ndiswrapper ... they card was unknown to lspci .. but now after using a recommended windows driver .. I can see wlan0 in ifconfig and there is a correct mac address ... but It just doesnt detect any wireless networks
[12:12] <andy__> Is there an easy way to remove only the apps installed with KDE, but not the actual KDE core
[12:12] <vit_> hy all
[12:12] <Phlosten> lostinc: do you have seperate partitions mounted. iirc there is a .Trash created for each partition if you delete from other partitions etc
[12:12] <gnomefreak> andy__: yes hold on one sec
[12:13] <sidny4> CVirus, have you tried setting which network it connects to using iwconfig?
[12:13] <gnomefreak> andy__: remove libqt3-mt
[12:13] <CVirus> sidny4: yes
[12:13] <andy__> gnomefreak: how, what commands?
[12:13] <gnomefreak> andy__: sudo apt-get remove libqt3-mt
[12:14] <CVirus> sidny4: after setting the essid and then ifconfig .. the essid isnt there
[12:14] <andy__> ok thanks
[12:14] <tiredbones> I just upgraded to Dapper - I think. How can I verify that that the upgrade took?
[12:14] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: did you reboot?
[12:14] <sidny4> the essid wouldn't show up in ifconfig, only iwconfig
[12:14] <CVirus> sidny4: I really need this piece of crap working
[12:14] <CVirus> sidny4: iwconfig sorry
[12:14] <tiredbones> yes
[12:14] <sidny4> ok
[12:14] <Dreamglider> i have booted the liveCD i have acces to my Windows partion and my usb disk but i cant drag n drop files from the NTFS to the FAT32 help
[12:14] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: lsb_release -a
[12:14] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: type that in terminal it will tell you what you are one
[12:14] <rleathers> I have 8GB RAM, but still unable to see more than 4GB.... I installed linux-image-server and rebooted but /proc/meminfo still shows only 4GB
[12:15] <gnomefreak> on*
[12:15] <sidny4> CVirus, did you blacklist bcm43xx?
[12:15] <bruenig> 8 GB of RAM, good god, what are you doing
[12:15] <CVirus> sidny4: yes I did .. i rmmod it and black listed it
[12:15] <andy__> graphics prob
[12:15] <bruenig> that requires that much RAM
[12:15] <andy__> I have 4, and I need more
[12:15] <babwe> Gabby_Hayes this is the one im trying t install http://drip.sourceforge.net/download.php
[12:16] <sidny4> and ndiswrapper -l lists driver installed and hardware present correct?
[12:16] <rleathers> I will be running numerous Xen instances
[12:16] <bruenig> I have 512, although ubuntu says I have 377.2 for whatever reason, and I never get over 250 MB
[12:16] <TheLance> ok Ubuntu LTS 6.10 is bothering the hell outta me now
[12:16] <khedron> Dreamglider: your FAT32 is probably mounted to only allow root to write to it. Try gksu nautilus --browser to open a browser as root
[12:16] <bruenig> TheLance, I don't think it is LTS by the way
[12:16] <CVirus> sidny4: any ideas ?
[12:16] <Gabby_Hayes> k,  let take a look..
[12:16] <TheLance> its not mounting my xorg file
[12:17] <mjr> rleathers, is that an Intel PAE box or amd64, and are you running 32- or 64-bit ubuntu?
[12:17] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: it looks like it didn't take. Back to the drawing board. thanks for the reply
[12:17] <TheLance> i have the proper resolutions installed
[12:17] <sidny4> CVirus, haha, I'm running low on Ideas
[12:17] <TheLance> but it cant see it
[12:17] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: what does uname -r say?
[12:17] <TheLance> i can only use 640X480
[12:17] <CVirus> sidny4: any reports whether its working or not ?
[12:17] <rleathers> Intel PAE
[12:17] <TheLance> and 800X600
[12:17] <TheLance> its annoying as hell
[12:17] <TheLance> especially when I have a 1440X900 monitor
[12:17] <rleathers> and dang --- yes it is 32 - and there is my answer!
[12:17] <rambo3> mega characters
[12:17] <andy__> How do I change the permission of the /.kde folder to my user rather then root????
[12:17] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: 2.6.12-10-386
[12:18] <Zoffix> Hi, has someone managed to install VMServer on Ubuntu, when I try it says "A previous installation has been detected... aborting".. and that even with "Remove completely" on vmplayer packages
[12:18] <sidny4> CVirus, does the wireless network have any type of security?
[12:18] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: how did you upgrade. what method did you use?
[12:18] <florizs1984> @andy__ sudo chown username:username
[12:18] <CVirus> sidny4: no ... I was scanning an unsecured network
[12:18] <TheLance> man it was a mistake installing Edgy eft
[12:18] <andy__> ok thanks, Ill give it a go in a bit
[12:18] <florizs1984> @TheLance why?
[12:18] <gnomefreak> TheLance: please keep edgy talk in #ubuntu+1
[12:19] <Ries> Anybody know when new ubuntu-server CD's will be released?
[12:19] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: downloaded the iso image and cut my own cd.
[12:19] <TheLance> well it doesn't mount my xorg  file
[12:19] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: thats what you did?
[12:19] <sidny4> CVirus, so you did this command right: sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid "network_name"
[12:19] <rleathers> so next question, how hard will it be to upgrade to 64 bit ubuntu ?  do I just aim at different repositories and dist upgrade ?
[12:19] <sidny4> right?
[12:19] <Gabby_Hayes> babwe2 .. can't connect to that url
[12:19] <rambo3> thats becouse no one reads information.  topic or warnings about edgy
[12:19] <bruenig> Ries, probably october 26
[12:19] <gnomefreak> TheLance: talk about edgy in #ubuntu+1
[12:20] <mjr> rleathers, if you have a 32-bit PAE box, you can't
[12:20] <CVirus> sidny4: exactly
[12:20] <CVirus> sidny4: and sudo iwlist wlan0 scan ... no results
[12:20] <Ries> bruenig: Ok thanks... I need a new kernel on teh 64bits ubuntu-server CD... but I don't feel confident doing it....
[12:20] <Phuzion> I'm having DNS errors
[12:20] <Phuzion> Can someone help me diagnose my problem?
[12:20] <rambo3> sudo iwconfig wlan0 managed
[12:20] <rambo3> sudo dhclient wlan0
[12:20] <mjr> rleathers, anyway, just check if the server kernel has PAE support, I dunno about that. Thought it might be you running a 32-bit distro on an amd64 (or 64-bit intel)
[12:20] <Ries> bruenig: are you cinfident in building installation CD's?
[12:20] <Knifa> I downloaded the AMD64 version of Edgy Eft, but when i do "uname -r" it shows the kernel as being generic. Does that mean it's actually going as x86 rather than x64?
[12:21] <bruenig> Ries, no
[12:21] <mjr> Knifa, no
[12:21] <Ries> Knifa: try uname -m
[12:21] <rleathers> I have dual Xeon EM64T - so hardware wise it will be ok - I installed the 32 bit distro is my problem addressing over 4GB I guess
[12:21] <Knifa> aha!
[12:21] <Knifa> thanks
[12:21] <gnomefreak> Knifa: join #ubuntu+1 for edgy
[12:21] <psycose_> How to make a package don't upgradable ... the synaptic => package => block version don't seems to work
[12:21] <gnomefreak> Knifa: no thats good
[12:21] <defi__3x> How do you force a device to be ignored?
[12:21] <Knifa> gnomefreak: what?
[12:21] <foo> Is this a valid visudo entry? I want people in the group sshjail to only be able to execute /bin/chroot ... hmm %sshjail ALL= NOPASSWD: /bin/chroot
[12:22] <defi__3x> Im assuming its something with HAL but I just can't figure out what
[12:22] <gnomefreak> Knifa: join #ubuntu+1 i will explain there
[12:22] <mjr> rleathers, ok, then the thing to check for is if those CPUs support over 4 gigs of physical memory running 32-bit. And yes, installing a 64-bit Ubuntu would help, if nothing else.
[12:22] <Knifa> yeah i'm there already
[12:22] <Knifa> i joined here because no one was awnsering me
[12:22] <rambo3> defi__3x, just dont modprobe its driver
[12:22] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: I notice when the system goes thru a verification phase I get this,  Checking /ubuntu.ico  then, check finished o checksum failed. I'm not sure what this message is saying.
[12:22] <defi__3x> rambo3, It will automatticallydo that
[12:23] <defi__3x> rambo3, how can I stop it?
[12:23] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: you downloaded the dapper iso and installed from that?
[12:23] <rambo3> !blacklist >defi__3x
[12:23] <rleathers> well surely Dell would not let me put 8GB RAM in the PC if the CPU couldn't address it right ?
[12:23] <CVirus> sidny4: suggestions ?
[12:23] <defi__3x> rambo3, ahh
[12:23] <SB|nblracer> Hi again
[12:23] <CVirus> sidny4: on this laptop
[12:23] <SB|nblracer> need some help loging in
[12:23] <CVirus> oops
[12:23] <defi__3x> rambo3, thx ill start searching on how to do that
[12:23] <xTNTx> anyone can help me? I'm getting problems installing Kubuntu from the liveCD
[12:24] <CVirus> sidny4: on the laptop's wiki page they say its working with ndiswrapper
[12:24] <SB|nblracer> I just installed ubuntu for the first time
[12:24] <rleathers> and its all counting up in the BIOS
[12:24] <Ries> rleathers: can I ask you what serve ryou have?? I have problems with my perk5 raid controler
[12:24] <xTNTx> I've got the crashlog, if anyone mind to check
[12:24] <mjr> rleathers, but it can, at least in 64-bit.
[12:24] <sidny4> hmm
[12:24] <sidny4> CVirus, what kind of laptop is it?
[12:24] <THX-1138> SB|nblracer: Welcome to #ubuntu
[12:24] <Gabby_Hayes> hmmm.. was that Dell salesman an ex-HP guy who sold you those 8GB or ram?  (j/k)
[12:24] <CVirus> sidny4: HP Compaq nx6310
[12:24] <SB|nblracer> once i type my username and password the screen goes into what looks to be console, then goes back to the login screen
[12:24] <mjr> Anyway, towards checking for PAE support in the CPU and in the kernel, or upgrading to 64-bit, lie your answers
[12:25] <defi__3x> rambo3, nvm the search its a file under modprobe
[12:25] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: yes, I downloaded the iso image the burnt my cd. Then installed.
[12:25] <defi__3x> rambo3, thx again
[12:25] <SB|nblracer> any reason why it not lettiung me log in
[12:25] <itchi> Oh, he is now above the 15%
[12:25] <SB|nblracer> i know the password and name are correct
[12:25] <rleathers> ok thanks guys - will reinstall with 64 bit version (feels like idiot for not realizing this sooner)
[12:25] <itchi> Maybe an scratched cd i had previously
[12:26] <THX-1138> mjr - Is there a kernel patch neede to support three displays?
[12:26] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: open up your sources.list by typing gksudo "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" and let me know when its up
[12:26] <rleathers> xinerama can handle 3
[12:26] <mjr> THX-1138, no
[12:26] <CVirus> sidny4: hmm ?
[12:26] <THX-1138> mjr - Thanks
[12:26] <sidny4> CVirus, I'm thinkin, I'm thinkin :D
[12:26] <CVirus> sidny4: I appreciate that
[12:26] <CVirus> sidny4: have you got a similar card ?
[12:26] <florizs1984> does anyone know a good tool for configuring a synaptics touchpad?
[12:26] <mjr> THX-1138, it's just a question of having enough cards or a single card with the connectivity and driver support required
[12:26] <sicko> how can i install ntfs-3g for breezy ??
[12:27] <gnomefreak> sicko: you would have to look on the website for it. it is not an ubuntu app
[12:27] <THX-1138> mjr - three adapters - lshw and the bios only see two
[12:28] <gnomefreak> sicko: and it doesnt make it safer to write to ntfs anyway
[12:28] <minerale> pike__, itchi, ljl: Ok I was able to fix the mbr by using fixmbr.exe (an independent non-ms version of the fixmbr utility) on a vista-booted cd, thanks
[12:28] <sidny4> CVirus, i have the bcm4318 in my laptop
[12:28] <sicko> just need to copy &delete files from ntfs, no write
[12:28] <itchi> minerale: So it was been an mbr trouble
[12:28] <gnomefreak> sicko: you dont need external app to do that
[12:28] <gnomefreak> !ntfs
[12:28] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions  -  See also !fuse
[12:29] <CVirus> sidny4: and it works ?
[12:29] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: it's up
[12:29] <gnomefreak> sicko: ^^ read that
[12:29] <sicko> ?
[12:29] <jvai> linksys wifi cards sound like mad trouble... orinoco's r bettr, they just dont support scanning
[12:29] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: in each line you see the word breezy or dapper?
[12:29] <CVirus> sidny4: ndiswrapper or the native driver ?
[12:29] <sidny4> CVirus, I had to use ndiswrapper but it works great
[12:29] <gnomefreak> !ntfs > sicko
[12:29] <gnomefreak> sicko: read your pm from ubotu
[12:29] <minerale> itchi: yep, would you guess that a broken mbr == windows install cd thinking the hard drive does not exist?
[12:30] <sidny4> CVirus, the bcm43xx seems to be buggy, I haven't heard of anyone able to use it (haven't been listening much I guess)

[12:31] <CVirus> sidny4: sure I comiled the latest version
[12:31] <gnomefreak> sicko: deleting from an ntfs is writing
[12:31] <CVirus> sidny4: it was released 2 days ago
[12:31] <sidny4> CVirus, nice, so it shouldn't be that
[12:31] <gnomefreak> sicko: adding or deleting things is writing to it
[12:31] <Dreamglider> how can i copy files from my ntfs it they have invalid names, i cant write to the ntfs(So no rename) help
[12:32] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: can I just cut and paste?

[12:37] <gtapro91> woah
[12:37] <gtapro91> operas fuckin amazing
[12:38] <sidny4> CVirus, did you use the driver from him?
[12:38] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: its a package that depends on other apps but nothing depends on it
[12:38] <CVirus> sidny4: yes
[12:38] <SB|nblracer> yes it is goes black then back to login
[12:38] <gnomefreak> gtapro91: watch your language please
[12:38] <gtapro91> so u guys are ubuntu devs?
[12:38] <gtapro91> sorry
[12:38] <CVirus> sidny4: this is even the driver listed on ndiswrapper page
[12:38] <SB|nblracer> looks like the console screen
[12:38] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Have you install an X envirnment? An GUI
[12:38] <gandolfthewizard> is there anyone that can help me a little i went to the fourms and i tryed everything there and i wqas coming up with errors and everything
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> Ghome i think
[12:39] <THX-1138> tiredbones: it is a list that helps to install other needed packages.
[12:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Which type of cd have you use to make the install?
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> what ever comes on the DVD version
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> Ubuntu
[12:39] <sidny4> CVirus, hmm, that's odd that it doesn't work
[12:39] <gnomefreak> THX-1138: than it would be called a meta list
[12:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: The desktop or server version?
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> desktop
[12:39] <CVirus> sidny4: very oddd
[12:39] <CVirus> odd*
[12:39] <gnomefreak> itchi: dvd is gui
[12:39] <SB|nblracer> i installed though the text
[12:40] <Dreamglider> how do i enable writh on NTFS partion
[12:40] <gnomefreak> !ntfs > Dreamglider
[12:40] <SB|nblracer> Im almost sure the password and name are right
[12:40] <THX-1138> gnomefreak - would you please stop teaching me so much about linux - my head might 'splode! - rofl
[12:40] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: please read your pm
[12:40] <gnomefreak> lol
[12:40] <itchi> THX-1138: Need some drug?? Take another tux :-p
[12:41] <Dreamglider> write to ntfs
[12:41] <SB|nblracer> when i type the wrong PW and UN itchi it says to re type them
[12:41] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: not safe
[12:41] <THX-1138> itchi - nothing like a penguin to cure a windows headache.
[12:41] <THX-1138> Thanks guys. :)
[12:41] <Dreamglider> i dont care, i hate this peice of sh*t
[12:42] <SB|nblracer> when i do the right UN and PW, it goes to a black "console screen then bbackl to the login screen
[12:42] <gandolfthewizard> i don't i just want to install the java runtime
[12:42] <SB|nblracer> any clue why?
[12:42] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: When I do the apt-get on desktop I'm informed that I have the most current version. So I guess I can update /etc/apt/sources.lst and try the install again?
[12:42] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: the link ubotu sent you should have it if not look into fuse but if you do it your on your own
[12:42] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: yes finish it and save it
[12:42] <Dreamglider> i need to rename filename in order to copy to backu the file
[12:43] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Is it somethings like 'username@computer:~$' ?
[12:43] <gnomefreak> Dreamglider: logging into windows would be too easy and too safe?
[12:43] <SB|nblracer> If any one can help me Please send me a PM/querry
[12:43] <foo> -bash-3.1$ ssh-keygen
[12:43] <foo> PRNG is not seeded
[12:43] <Dreamglider> the thing is gnomefreak i cant boot Ubuntu nor Windows so i ahve to backup
[12:43] <foo> Gah, any idea on that one?
[12:43] <SB|nblracer> Itchi where do i c that at
[12:43] <itchi> SB|nblracer: People do not like pm, and other users maybe are interested with your case
[12:43] <SB|nblracer> The black screen goes fast, but there is text on it
[12:44] <foo> ah, nevermind
[12:44] <itchi> SB|nblracer: So you login in with an user and then you are immediatly ejected out that session and need again enter an username and passwd?
[12:44] <SB|nblracer> it hard for me to see it beacuse im going between Ubuntu and windows
[12:44] <SB|nblracer> Yes
[12:44] <SB|nblracer> thats correct
[12:45] <dasos> i setup "share folders" to share a directory, but when i try to connect from windows using run -> \\computername\share it keeps asking for a login but doesn't accept it
[12:45] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Have you some troubles with the video card?
[12:45] <UNFG> hello all
[12:45] <SB|nblracer> I dought it it
[12:45] <SB|nblracer> it is an ATI rage 128
[12:45] <JoaoJoao> hello
[12:45] <SB|nblracer> It is supported
[12:46] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Normally if you have install the desktop version, you get directly an GUI interface to log in
[12:46] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: See you on the other siade of a new install, I HOPE!
[12:46] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: wait
[12:46] <patrickmorin> is there way to get my airport extreme card to work with Ubuntu?
[12:46] <JoaoJoao> anyone knows if there is any way to define a custom server for the network install?
[12:46] <SB|nblracer> and i was using Slazx worked fine
[12:46] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:46] <SB|nblracer> itchi i do get a GUI to login
[12:46] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: type that command and let it go
[12:47] <Dreamglider> !fuse
[12:47] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[12:47] <SB|nblracer> but once i type it in it goes black and back to the same login screen
[12:47] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Have you specify an gfx card in the setup? Maybe he use the wrong driver??
[12:47] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: Okay
[12:47] <gtapro91> you guys think google is working on thier own os?
[12:47] <gtapro91> or at least thier own linux distro
[12:48] <iamtheobject> google bought youtube today
[12:48] <gtapro91> yea
[12:48] <JoaoJoao> I remember somethiing in Brezzy about putting the installation files in a computer in my network and using it as the source for the install, can I do somethiing like that in Dapper?
[12:48] <SB|nblracer> This is my first time trying to login, I did not chnage any drivers from what was installed and detected in the setup
[12:48] <jvai> whaaat! google! bought utube??
[12:48] <gtapro91> yup
[12:48] <gtapro91> today
[12:48] <patrickmorin> yeah for 1.6 billion dolaars
[12:48] <iamtheobject> Rss: nytimes: Google to Acquire YouTube for $1.65 Billion
[12:48] <iamtheobject> Rss: slashdot: Google Buys YouTube for $1.65 Billion // IE7 To Ship With Windows Patches Tomorrow [Not]
[12:48] <jvai> is it a slashdot article?
[12:48] <iamtheobject> ;)
[12:49] <jvai> wow
[12:49] <UNFG> can someone help me with a networking problem real quick.. i know the answeres simple but i cant remember how to do it
[12:49] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Im not yet more familiar with Ubuntu. Runs Debian here and Ubuntu is long time ago, he is installing it again right now in an virtual machine
[12:49] <gtapro91> ie7 is finally done ww
[12:49] <gtapro91> wow
[12:49] <georgy> !ask
[12:49] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:49] <gnomefreak> iamtheobject: join #ubuntu-offtopic for that chat
[12:49] <gnomefreak> gtapro91: you also
[12:49] <gtapro91> oh woops sorry
[12:49] <SB|nblracer> itchi is there a way i can frezze the screen on the black part to see what it says
[12:50] <ibug> hi
[12:50] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You can try to look in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf  file to see which driver he use
[12:50] <SB|nblracer> also itchi what should i do next to try to reslve this issuie
[12:50] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You can look to the differents logs files in /var/log/*
[12:50] <SB|nblracer> How do i do that
[12:50] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: It seems to be doing it thing.
[12:50] <SB|nblracer> Im new to linux
[12:50] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: good
[12:50] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You are in an black screen now?
[12:51] <JoaoJoao> So, there's no way to specify a custom location for the network install source
[12:51] <SB|nblracer> no
[12:51] <itchi> SB|nblracer: In console mode
[12:51] <JoaoJoao> :(
[12:51] <SB|nblracer> how do i get in console
[12:51] <gnomefreak> SB|nblracer: alt+f2
[12:51] <UNFG> i just installed ubuntu server.. it detects my nic.. but i think its tryin to run its own DCHP server instead of act as a client.. so it wont show up on the network.. how do i set it as a client for the routers dchp?
[12:51] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Press ctlr+alt+f1  to go the first or replace 1 with 1-6
[12:51] <gnomefreak> SB|nblracer: thats assuming you dont see any gui frames
[12:52] <SB|nblracer> thanks, gnomefreak hold on itchi
[12:52] <SAS_Spidey01> Do I have to use the Alternate Install CD if I don't want GRUB in my MBR?
[12:52] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: Doest this mean that I can't use the iso image I burnt as a backup for booting my system if I have to someday?
[12:52] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You have more than one computer?
[12:52] <gnomefreak> itchi: if hes already in tty he can just use alt+f-
[12:52] <cntb> SAS_Spidey01: yes
[12:52] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: yes you can
[12:52] <SB|nblracer> yes i do itchi
[12:52] <SAS_Spidey01> cntb: Thank you kindly
[12:52] <itchi> gnomefreak: I'm not know if he is in it, i think he is before that gdm login
[12:52] <SB|nblracer> there hooked up to the smae monitor, so i have to switch back and forth
[12:53] <gnomefreak> ah i thought he tried to get to gdma nd it droped him in tty
[12:53] <cntb> consider dual boot
[12:53] <SB|nblracer> wait a sec to see if i can get in console
[12:53] <itchi> SB|nblracer: For cheap you can buy an KVM. Some stuff to connect one monitor/keyboard/mouse to more than one computer
[12:54] <SkramX> the best way to share files between linux and windows partitions are through a seperate FAT32?
[12:54] <SB|nblracer> My monitor has dual input
[12:54] <georgy> SkramX : yes
[12:54] <SkramX> ok
[12:54] <SkramX> hrmph
[12:54] <itchi> ow, 50%
[12:54] <SAS_Spidey01> That our buy Microsoft
[12:55] <dyn-afk> :)
[12:55] <Nossace> i have a dell, installed ubuntu now i cant access the pc restore partition on dell bios startup using dell's original keyboard shortcuts, any solutions?
[12:55] <UNFG> did anyone see my question or should i repost?
[12:55] <itchi> Nossace: Is that partitions still living?
[12:56] <Nossace> its still there, not sure what you mean by living
[12:56] <georgy> UNFG : sudo nano /etc/network/interfaces
[12:56] <com4> Is there a way to force the directory and file creation masks on a mounted samba file system? If I copy over a dir 0775 to the mounted folder, i would like it to rewrite the permissions as 0777 and 0666 for files
[12:57] <itchi> Nossace: That it's not delete, i mean
[12:57] <itchi> Nossace: The restore button not work in Ubuntu, bet well in Windows?
[12:57] <UNFG> georgy: ok there
[12:57] <SB|nblracer> itchi I went in the console and tryed to login
[12:57] <babwe> Gabby_hayes Ill be back tmorrow it seems im missing out the checking for gnome-config... no
[12:57] <babwe> checking for gnomeConf.sh file in /usr/local/lib... not found
[12:57] <SB|nblracer> and after saying there is no warrenty
[12:57] <ompaul> UNFG, try sudo dhclient and see what happens
[12:58] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Okay
[12:58] <SB|nblracer> it says there is not enough space to make a doc
[12:58] <Nossace> I want to keep ubuntu, i just want to restore my windows partition to factory
[12:58] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: If your downloading the iso image you might want to take a look at the problem I had. I'm not sure it will apply to you.
[12:58] <foo> Can I make two different ssh keys for the same user on the remote system?
[12:58] <nuked_omen> Nossace, reinstall windows then configure lilo
[12:58] <itchi> SB|nblracer: now look in the file 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf'. sudo is needed to look as an administrator
[12:58] <nuked_omen> recl
[12:58] <nuked_omen> opps
[12:59] <itchi> SB|nblracer: If you want you can switch of user (see su), but that's for later
[12:59] <UNFG> georgy: i have auto eth0 {next line} iface eth0 inet dchp
[12:59] <SB|nblracer> How do i chnage directorys in linux
[12:59] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Use the same password as your user
[12:59] <SB|nblracer> change
[12:59] <SAS_Spidey01> what problem tiredbones ?
[12:59] <itchi> cd my_dir
[12:59] <georgy> UNFG : so it's a client
[12:59] <SB|nblracer> o that same as dos
[01:00] <itchi> aka cd /etc/X11/..
[01:00] <babwe> gabby_hayes also getting this configure: error: Could not find the gnomeConf.sh file that is generated by gnome-libs install/home/babwe/Desktop/drip-0.9.0/missing: Unknown `--run' option
[01:00] <itchi> SB|nblracer: do like following. type '/et' then press the tabulator key
[01:00] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: I had to modify my sources.list file.
[01:00] <Nossace> yes dell didn't give me a windows reinstallation cd, they made a partition on the hard disk that can restore the pc when called using a keyboard shortcut during the bios startup, but since that new gru boot system, when the dell interface is supposed to appear it goes to gru
[01:00] <SAS_Spidey01> sources.list ?
[01:00] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Got it? You get autocompletion
[01:00] <SB|nblracer> can you wait a sec while i try
[01:01] <CrapImAGhost> georgy: i want it to be but it wont connect to my router
[01:01] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Sure ;-)
[01:01] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: /etc/apt/sources.list .
[01:01] <itchi> Nossace: gru?
[01:02] <CrapImAGhost> georgy: it doesnt show up in ifconfig but shows up in ifconfig -a
[01:02] <babwe> be back tomorrow gabby_hayes
[01:02] <SAS_Spidey01> SB|nblracer: if your more used to DOS then Unix like commands Wikipeda might be able to help you
[01:02] <itchi> CrapImAGhost: The card is not up?
[01:02] <Nossace> the commandline thingy when you choose what you want to startup, which kernel
[01:02] <Nossace> im not sure what it is called fully
[01:02] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: are you upgrading to Dapper?
[01:02] <newpZ> hi there.. i have 2 laptops, exactly the same.. I installed dapper when it first came out on both, 1 laptop is now running like it has no memory and real slow... i cant find anything up anywhere.. any suggestions?
[01:03] <unfg> itchi: the light on the back of the card is on.. and so is the light on the router
[01:03] <SAS_Spidey01> I'm planning on installing it over my FreeBSD partition
[01:03] <georgy> CrapImAGhost : right, your card isn't up
[01:03] <unfg> ok so is that like a driver issue?
[01:03] <Nossace> ultimately i just want to restore my windows ntfs partition to the factory installation via the dell pc restore partition
[01:03] <SAS_Spidey01> I need to use this machine for testing PC-BSD stuff, and it won't tripple boot WinXP, FreeBSD, and PC-BSD Beta's
[01:03] <georgy> unfg : maybe, but first try sudo ifup eth0
[01:04] <SB|nblracer> itchi how do i open the Xcon file
[01:04] <tiredbones>  SAS_Spidey01: good luck!
[01:04] <newpZ> its like the hard drive turns and turns when i minimize or do just about anything
[01:04] <Gabby_Hayes> good luck,  babwe
[01:04] <unfg> says souldent read interfaces files.. unknown method
[01:04] <itchi> SB|nblracer: With an text editor, take nano for example
[01:04] <gnomefreak> tiredbones: i think your issue was that the md5sum of the iso didnt match the servers md5sum of the iso
[01:04] <newpZ> but running top, i dont see anything chewing up cpu or mem
[01:05] <SAS_Spidey01> Thank you tiredbones , I hope it works
[01:05] <gnomefreak> so we do it without iso ;)
[01:05] <tiredbones> gnomefreak: I think so, too.
[01:05] <SB|nblracer> xorg.conf
[01:05] <itchi> SB|nblracer: nano /path/of/my_file
[01:05] <babwe> ..thx gabby is it a hrd one
[01:05] <babwe> *ard
[01:06] <itchi> SB|nblracer: But if it's some file that is protected and only can view by admins then you need to do 'sudo nano /path/of/my_file'
[01:06] <unfg> itchi: says on line 10 there is a unknown method.. ifup: couldent read /etc/network/interfaces
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> Itch thanks again
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> itchi im looking at the file now
[01:06] <Travellis> So, here is my issue.
[01:06] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You are welcome ;-)
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> what show i be looking for
[01:06] <SB|nblracer> should
[01:06] <itchi> unfg: Is there an typo in the config file?
[01:07] <Travellis> I received a "VIOLATON TICKET". Is anyone familiar with anything involving these?
[01:07] <unfg> i dont think so.. should i try retyping everthing?
[01:07] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Look to ...
[01:07] <itchi> Section "Device"
[01:07] <gnomefreak> Travellis: what were you doing to get it?
[01:08] <itchi> SB|nblracer: There in that section you have an line with 'Driver "somethings"'
[01:08] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Tell which driver you use
[01:08] <newpZ> hi how can i tell how much memory is in my laptop and how much is being used?
[01:08] <Travellis> I was riding the city transit, which utilizes an honor system, and I was fined for having no valid proof of payment.
[01:08] <georgy> unfg : wich card to you have ?
[01:08] <gnomefreak> Travellis: join #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[01:08] <itchi> newpZ: use 'free'
[01:08] <SB|nblracer> itchi imput devices?
[01:08] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Go below
[01:09] <SB|nblracer> Ok i found it
[01:09] <SB|nblracer> it spots the correct video card
[01:09] <SB|nblracer> Driver ati
[01:09] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Maybe some params are not yet right, Like resolution and refresh rate
[01:10] <haploid_> I have the following usb device issue:  under fedora core, I am able to read from /dev/hiddev0 ( a shipping scale ), whereas under ubuntu 6.06.1, reading from /dev/hiddev0 (the device IS recognized just fine in /var/log/messages ) using cat does NOT return data like it does under fedora
[01:10] <asdfa> does anyone know of a setting to turn off the laptop fan?
[01:10] <unfg> lol thanks itchi and georgy it was a typo.. dchp instead of dhcp
[01:10] <georgy> unfg : np
[01:11] <SB|nblracer> itchi how do i go about correcting the refresh rate
[01:11] <SB|nblracer> and why do you think it is a graghic issuie
[01:11] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Maybe replace the ati with 'vesa' or 'vga' that work with almost every card. But change the the colordept to 16, just to test??
[01:11] <eugman> Can anyone tell me how I can record the sound output of a program?
[01:12] <asdfa> anyone know of a way to turn off the laptop fan?
[01:12] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Here on debian, you can do 'dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg', i'm not sure if that still work with Ubuntu. Like it's Debian derivated, normaly yes
[01:12] <unfg> *sigh* sorry guys its still not up yet
[01:12] <FunnyLookinHat> asdfa, I doubt you would want to even if you did have a way...  it's largely controlled by the BIOS so that your CPU doesn't overheat.
[01:12] <dave_> hows the edgy beta? anyone trying it?
[01:12] <FunnyLookinHat> dave_, I'm running it now, works great!
[01:12] <georgy> unfg : sudo ifup eth0
[01:12] <unfg> when i run sudo ifup eth0 is says its already configured
[01:13] <cafuego> asdfa: easy way: /dev/hammer
[01:13] <itchi> install process 63%
[01:13] <THX-1138> !fan
[01:13] <ubotu> fan is Control the fan  on/off  http://www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-12058.html
[01:13] <Wodger> well in a laptop be the harddrive that cooks
[01:13] <itchi> unfg: Maybe restart the network?
[01:13] <georgy> unfg : then sudo ifdown eth0, then sudo ifup eth0
[01:13] <Wodger> the cpu will just crash
[01:13] <cafuego> Wodger: depends on the cpu.
[01:13] <FunnyLookinHat> Wodger, yea, good pt.
[01:13] <dave_> any bugs?
[01:13] <unfg> georgy: k ill try that brb
[01:13] <asdfa> cafuego: can you expand on what you mean?
[01:13] <FunnyLookinHat> dave_, some packages are messed up with dependancy issues...
[01:13] <cafuego> at 90+C it may take stuff with it.
[01:14] <eugman> Can anyone tell me how I can record the sound output of a program?
[01:14] <alex_ubuntu> OK now I've done it... installed ubuntu-desktop on my 606 server and lost the video... what's next
[01:14] <FunnyLookinHat> dave_, sorry to be a bum, but this should be in #ubuntu+1 just to keep the scatter-chat out of here  : )
[01:14] <SB|nblracer> itchi im under section "screen" and you want me to change it to a 16 depth?
[01:14] <Wodger> audacity probably
[01:14] <dave_> o
[01:14] <njal> I have me here a region 0 DVD that I have bought and would like to watch under ubuntu but the disc does not want to mount, what could the problem be?
[01:14] <dave_> oh ok, sorry
[01:14] <cafuego> asdfa: The easiest way to disable the fan is to destroy it physically. However, no fan emans you'll get crashes within a few minuites due to overheating.
[01:14] <FunnyLookinHat> alex_ubuntu, try a control+alt+F1
[01:14] <THX-1138> cafuego is right. - you need a fan. unless you ae outdoors in alask
[01:14] <asdfa> cafuego:  ahh joke
[01:14] <FunnyLookinHat> alex_ubuntu, if that doesn't bring up a console then ...   "uh oh"
[01:14] <asdfa> went right over my head
[01:14] <effie_jayx> SB|nblracer,  bash?
[01:14] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Depend a bit if you have try with the vesa or vga driver
[01:14] <newpZ> does this look like it should be running slow? Mem: total: 709644     used:236892     free:472752         shared:0       buffers:3104      cached:73064 -/+ buffers/cache:     160724     548920 Swap:      1622524     244416    1378108
[01:14] <alex_ubuntu> by flicking the power button I now have console
[01:15] <cafuego> newpZ: In a Pentium 133, yes.
[01:15] <finalbeta> Hello, I have a firewire hard disk attached, how do I make ubuntu detect/mount it?
[01:15] <newpZ> hehe thats what i was thinking
[01:15] <alex_ubuntu> how do I turnn off the gnome or demand a lower resolution
[01:15] <itchi> SB|nblracer: There is an need to know what's going wrong, you know now where it's the config file of the gfx. Look a bit in the xorg log file?? /var/log/Xorg.log
[01:15] <unfg> georgy: ok now after i sudo ifup again it says no DCHP offers
[01:15] <newpZ> why in the hell does this laptop run so slow
[01:15] <unfg> but this windows pc is using dchp
[01:16] <cafuego> newpZ: You're using 250 Mb of swap, if that's being swapped in and out often, it'll cause slowdowns.
[01:16] <Nossace> nuked_omen: what are these things that you mentioned, when you said reinstall windows and modify lilo, rcl , opps ?
[01:16] <eugman> newpZ, because it has no legs?
[01:16] <cafuego> 1.6GB of  swap is a *lot* actually
[01:16] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Normally a such problem is not realy frequent, like normally you need to get an error screen and he tell you why it's not yet working right
[01:16] <THX-1138> newpZ - Have you installed an acellerated video driver?
[01:16] <newpZ> cafuego, the hard drive works like its constantly swapping
[01:16] <SB|nblracer> effie_jayx?
[01:17] <cafuego> newpZ: Well, you got 470Mb of free ram, turn off swap and see how you go.
[01:17] <effie_jayx> SB|nblracer,  sorry my mistake
[01:17] <newpZ> THX-1138, thats actually a good point... i couldnt get the nvidia driver working and left it half way working. no direct rendering but using the right driver
[01:17] <georgy> unfg : what's the range of you router 192.168.X.X or 10.0.x.X ?
[01:17] <unfg> georgy: it says sendinf DHCPDiSCOVERY on eth0 to <IP_ADDRESS> port 67
[01:17] <codecaine> sound is not sync with flash videos on webpages how can I fix that?
[01:17] <unfg> 192.168.2.x
[01:18] <newpZ> im wondering if i get the vidcard working right if it will solve my issues
[01:18] <newpZ> i guess i can try vga
[01:18] <georgy> unfg : try ifconfig eth0 <IP_ADDRESS> and try to ping the router
[01:18] <bruenig> codecaine, reverse engineer flash and write a plugin that doesn't suck or hope adobe gets out the flash 9 beta soon
[01:18] <georgy> unf : * sudo
[01:18] <itchi> SB|nblracer: An interesting log file is the /var/log/messages also 'sudo dmesg'
[01:18] <codecaine> oh so no easy solution :p
[01:18] <THX-1138> dunno,  don't think swapping is related to the video card.
[01:18] <eugman> codecaine, you could in theory install flash on ie on wine and run flash programs with that.
[01:19] <gh0zt> hi
[01:19] <newpZ> its strange cause i have 2 identical laptops. followed the same nvdia guide and ths laptop will not direct render
[01:19] <bruenig> when flash is closed, there is not much you can do, pray to the software gods that the developers aren't incompetent morons
[01:19] <codecaine> try to stay away from windows programs
[01:19] <gh0zt> fun
[01:19] <newpZ> ewww wine
[01:19] <itchi> newpZ: Because an laptop is not to play with it, but to work with :-p
[01:19] <unfg> georgy: it says destination host unreacable
[01:19] <newpZ> yup and my other works perfectly
[01:19] <newpZ> hehe
[01:20] <alscorpion> Hi guys ... any webserver pro ??
[01:20] <haploid_> does ubuntu intercept raw device data for hiddev devices or something ?
[01:20] <eugman> So can anyone here tell me how I can save what gets sent to my speakers as a wav file?
[01:20] <THX-1138> newpZ - ATI just doesn't help open source as much as it might.
[01:20] <georgy> unfg : what card to you have ?
[01:20] <haploid_> cat /dev/hiddev0 results in no data at all( same device on fedora does )
[01:20] <foo> When I ssh out .. I am getting this problem: -bash-3.1$ ssh flyupload-backend
[01:20] <foo> Host key verification failed.
[01:20] <foo> Any ideas?
[01:20] <cafuego> alscorpion: Lots, but unless you ask your question, they can't help.
[01:20] <newpZ> yeah no kidden
[01:20] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Still finding some info?
[01:20] <Wodger> audacity will record
[01:20] <newpZ> i need to mess with it somemore
[01:20] <newpZ> maybe ill do that now
[01:21] <alscorpion> cafuego, Its not a big deal ... I have a problem with LAMP server
[01:21] <eugman> Wodger, ok I'll give that a try.
[01:21] <unfg> georgy: accton technology corp SMC2-1211TX (rev 10)
[01:21] <eugman> Alscorpian, his point is out crystal balls are in the shop right now so no mind reading powers are available currently.
[01:21] <eugman> er, our crystal balls.
[01:22] <THX-1138> eugman - do the women go crazy over that kind?
[01:22] <alscorpion> how to check if PHP5 is working ???
[01:23] <cmatheson> i have 5 video cards (nvidia) in my computer, and i would like some screens to duplicate others... i could do this using vnc, but is there a cleaner way? (maybe at the x-server level?)
[01:23] <eugman> THX-1138, naw. They can clearly see you're nuts.
[01:23] <cafuego> alscorpion: cd /var/www/; echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>" > test.php; chmod 644 test.php; http://localhost:test.php
[01:23] <cafuego> well, nearly
[01:24] <SB|nblracer> itchi i restarted
[01:24] <jadacyrus> is there a way to get gnome-terminal to change profiles or atleast background color when I ssh into another computer, this way I can easily distinguish which terminal is SSH and which is a local terminal
[01:24] <SB|nblracer> and went in console to login
[01:24] <cafuego>  http://localhost/test.php
[01:24] <unfg> georgy: is that the info ya needed?
[01:24] <SB|nblracer> i get -bash cannot crate temp file for here document. no space left on device
[01:24] <georgy> unfg: yes, can you pastebin your lsmod
[01:25] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Sorry my enlgish is a bit bad
[01:25] <itchi> SB|nblracer: hhhmm
[01:25] <cafuego> SB|nblracer: `df -h'
[01:25] <itchi> SB|nblracer:  Do df -h
[01:25] <SB|nblracer> what is df-h
[01:25] <unfg> yea hold on
[01:26] <cafuego> shows you that your disk is full
[01:26] <itchi> SB|nblracer: To see the disk file usage
[01:26] <itchi> arg, i'm bit slow :-p
[01:26] <SB|nblracer> command not found
[01:26] <codecaine> whats a program that record video from ur webcam?
[01:26] <unfg> georgy: actually no i cant its on a different computer and its alot to type over
[01:27] <alscorpion> cafuego, my problem is : when i try to open my server "php file" i get a downloading pop up.
[01:27] <SB|nblracer> can i type the df-h any where
[01:27] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Sure you did not type an eror? Just 'df -h' without the both ' '
[01:27] <SB|nblracer> io
[01:27] <georgy> ung : ok
[01:27] <itchi> SB|nblracer: wait
[01:28] <alscorpion> cafuego, and after checking my apache2 config ... and everything is cool .. i try to restart it ... but i get this msg (98)Address already in use: make_sock: could not bind to address [::] :80
[01:28] <alscorpion> no listening sockets available, shutting down
[01:28] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Probably some things are not yet installed. Like you have an strange trouble. Maybe you get these troubles because the disk (partition) is full and not yet everything is been  there
[01:28] <SB|nblracer> 'forgot `'
[01:29] <MystaMax> quick question, how do I tell what user is allowed to run CGI (perl) scripts???
[01:29] <ToHellWithGA> how can i find the list of "recommended" packages for a package i've already installed?
[01:30] <THX-1138> #apache freenode
[01:30] <SB|nblracer> itchi when i do the `df-h' all what happens is a get a return
[01:30] <SB|nblracer> >
[01:30] <itchi> ToHellWithGA: With apt-cache show <pkg> for example
[01:30] <SB|nblracer> without the hostname
[01:30] <bruenig> ToHellWithGA, the reocmmended packages are probably attached to the package you are installing not to your particular system
[01:31] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Is there been an space between df and -h?
[01:31] <ToHellWithGA> bruenig: the ones i'm looking for are fonts
[01:31] <unfg> georgy: should i look for something in particular?
[01:31] <SB|nblracer> no
[01:31] <unfg> it scrolled more text than i can read
[01:32] <Nossace> bye bye guys, thanks
[01:32] <itchi> SB|nblracer: You need to set an space between; 'df -h'
[01:32] <MystaMax> anyone point me in the correct direction?
[01:32] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Or maybe just 'df' but the -h is the human reable option, usefuller
[01:32] <Knuta> is it possible to tell the dapper livecd _not_ to mount local filesystem? I'm doing surgery on a laptop with a semi-dead disk.
[01:32] <georgy> unfg : lsmod | less
[01:33] <jadacyrus> Does anybody know what an NVRM Xid error means?
[01:34] <unfg> georgy: when i set it as a static ip the other pcs on the network could ping the box.. also i typed the | less command.. do you want me to type it all or look for something in particular
[01:34] <SB|nblracer> itchi nothing is working
[01:35] <SB|nblracer> dose it need to show the host anme on each line like before?
[01:35] <SB|nblracer> all their is >
[01:35] <itchi> SB|nblracer: I not understand
[01:35] <georgy> unfg : look if the tulip and the rtl8139 is loaded
[01:35] <itchi> SB|nblracer: hhhmm you are stuck before that > sign?
[01:35] <itchi> SB|nblracer: ctrl+c
[01:36] <SB|nblracer> thanks
[01:36] <itchi> SB|nblracer: It react so because you have probably use one ' sign
[01:36] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Just type    df -h
[01:36] <SB|nblracer> this is what im typing `df -h'
[01:37] <itchi> SB|nblracer: lol
[01:37] <georgy> unfg : you can ping the computer in static ip ?
[01:37] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Type just   df -h
[01:37] <Dreamglider> ok in terminal how can i copy a dir with all files and sub dirs to my usb disk
[01:37] <mcphail> SB|nblracer: don't type the ` or ' signs
[01:37] <SB|nblracer> df -h works
[01:37] <unfg> georgy: neither are on that list
[01:37] <itchi> SB|nblracer: How much left?
[01:37] <mr-russ> what should I use as the default mail agent to get a sendmail binary to use from the command line and send to a real MTA?
[01:38] <SB|nblracer> looks full
[01:38] <MikeyMike> how can i ls to show the largest files first regardless of location?
[01:38] <georgy> unfg : pastebin the list, if you want
[01:38] <SB|nblracer> under that partion
[01:38] <itchi> SB|nblracer: How great is that partition?
[01:38] <MikeyMike> i want to search my entire root for the largest files first
[01:38] <SB|nblracer> its the whole drive
[01:38] <itchi> SB|nblracer: I guess you have an failed install, lack of space, that's why you have that strange trouble i think. You are go on an new install with an bigger partition
[01:38] <unfg> georgy: do you want everything.. or just the modules.. or just the used by colum
[01:39] <SB|nblracer> its a 2Gb drive
[01:39] <SB|nblracer> but shows up as 1.7
[01:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: ow
[01:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: That's a bit short i think
[01:39] <georgy> unfg : sorry, but everything
[01:39] <haploid_> this issue is costing us money, so a quick 200$ is on offer here for a solution
[01:39] <Knuta> MikeyMike: use find with -printf and some size constraints, then pipe the whole thing into sort.
[01:39] <MikeyMike> Knuta,  thats sorta vague :( can you help a little more?
[01:39] <itchi> SB|nblracer: My install is now on 86% and is already 2,3GB
[01:39] <SB|nblracer> but under varone and varlock it says it 1% used
[01:40] <zeo> wenas
[01:40] <LjL> MikeyMike: "find -printf "%s %f" | sort -n"
[01:40] <itchi> SB|nblracer: varone and varlock?
[01:40] <LjL> !es
[01:40] <MikeyMike> thanks
[01:40] <ubotu> Para Espaol por favor usen #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendrn mas ayuda.
[01:40] <zeo> gracas
[01:40] <SB|nblracer> its under my partion when i did that command
[01:40] <JoaoJoao> hello
[01:40] <MikeyMike> what are those 2 variables?
[01:40] <clsoX> hi
[01:40] <MikeyMike> %s %f
[01:40] <LjL> MikeyMike: size, and filename
[01:40] <zeo> hi cls
[01:41] <SB|nblracer> same with udev
[01:41] <LjL> MikeyMike: (if i got them right, that is... i didn't check the manpage)
[01:41] <MikeyMike> LjL,  is there uspposed to be a pipe
[01:41] <MikeyMike> or something
[01:41] <SB|nblracer> but i guess i will get a bigger driver
[01:41] <MikeyMike> it tried to find p r i n t  f
[01:41] <MikeyMike> illegal options
[01:41] <MikeyMike> rather
[01:41] <MikeyMike> and couldn't find %f or %s
[01:41] <clsoX> zeo, grr
[01:41] <itchi> SB|nblracer: I think you need to get an bigger hdd or do an selective install, that mean, installing the bare minimal and install what you need. Like the default Ubuntu install is a bit to big for your hdd
[01:41] <LjL> MikeyMike: there should be a dash
[01:41] <JoaoJoao> damn JMicron bug, this is driving me craaaaaaaazy
[01:41] <zeo> jaja
[01:41] <MikeyMike> LjL,  find -printf "%s %f" | sort -n
[01:41] <LjL> MikeyMike:    find -printf "%s %f" | sort -n
[01:41] <LjL> yeah
[01:42] <MikeyMike> yea
[01:42] <LjL> well let me check
[01:42] <MikeyMike> it tried to pass printf to find
[01:42] <MikeyMike> each one was an illegal option
[01:42] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Some are special /partitions/ used for the system, not take to many care about it right now. You gona learn more about these later
[01:42] <opixus> Im having a problem with wine, when i run winecfg and go to the audio tab i get this error :   ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory

[01:42] <opixus> can't create mcop directory
[01:42] <MikeyMike> the characters p r i n t  f
[01:42] <LjL> MikeyMike: ah sorry, find -printf "%s %f\n" | sort -n
[01:42] <JoaoJoao> anyone knows if I can copy the Ubuntu CD to an external USB drive and boot from it?
[01:42] <MikeyMike> same problem
[01:42] <SB|nblracer> thanks for your time itchi
[01:42] <LjL> MikeyMike: well, this works here. paste your output please?

[01:43] <SB|nblracer> the system has 2 other HDD i may try
[01:43] <billytwowilly> Hi, I want all my web browsing on this machine to be ssh tunneled through my home computer. can someone help me set this up?
[01:43] <LjL> err, i meant in the pastebin
[01:43] <itchi> SB|nblracer: Thanks to try these great software man ;-) And when i was knowing nothings about it, many guys have give lots and lots of his free time to learn me too ;-)
[01:43] <MikeyMike> yeah i know.... im so quick to paste in irc sometimes because of the other channel i frequent
[01:43] <MikeyMike> it was an accident
[01:43] <SB|nblracer> or see if i can get another driver from a buddy
[01:43] <LjL> MikeyMike: uhm... i'm baffled
[01:43] <SB|nblracer> later
[01:44] <fourat> my system is running with UTF8 as default, i would like to change that, anyone can help ?
[01:44] <MikeyMike> LjL,  perhaps its because its a mac.....?
[01:44] <MikeyMike> LjL,  :(
[01:44] <LjL> MikeyMike: a mac with ubuntu, or a mac with macos?
[01:44] <MikeyMike> LjL,  with os x :)
[01:44] <newpZ> belive it or not, i got direct rendering working on this laptop and it seems to be running better
[01:44] <alex_ubuntu> OK now I've done it... installed ubuntu-desktop on my 606 server and lost the video... what's next
[01:44] <LjL> MikeyMike: ah, well, then yeah, i guess that's it ;-) probably uses a different version of find... look at the man and see what it wants instead of -printf
[01:44] <MikeyMike> okay
[01:45] <newpZ> alex_ubuntu, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:45] <MikeyMike> LjL,  i will do that :)
[01:45] <MikeyMike> LjL,  im not sure
[01:45] <MikeyMike> there's -print and print0
[01:46] <unfg> georgy: just a quick question.. in ifconfig eth0 it hasinet addr: <IP_ADDRESS> and bcast:<IP_ADDRESS> and says UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST
[01:46] <Dreamglider> ok in terminal how can i copy a dir with all files and sub dirs to my usb disk
[01:46] <LjL> MikeyMike: not useful i'm afraid
[01:46] <MikeyMike> LjL,  yea
[01:46] <unfg> does that mean its broadcasting a DHCP?
[01:46] <MikeyMike> its okay thanks you got me on the right page.... i was still trying ot use LS
[01:46] <opixus> Im having a problem with wine, when i run winecfg and go to the audio tab i get this error :   ALSA lib seq_hw.c:456:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory   Creating link /home/robert/.kde/socket-opixus.  can't create mcop directory
[01:46] <joeCoT> cp -r dir_name /path/to/usbdrive
[01:47] <georgy> unfg : yes
[01:47] <MikeyMike> LjL,  what does the -printf entry say in the manpage for find?
[01:47] <unfg> georgy: ok how do i turn off broadcast?
[01:47] <unfg> i can ping it from this machine
[01:47] <unfg> but i cant ping its hostname
[01:47] <unfg> i can only hit the IP
[01:47] <LjL> MikeyMike: you probably want the "-ls" option (i'm reading the Darwin man page)
[01:47] <MikeyMike> -ls hmm
[01:48] <LjL> MikeyMike: nevermind printf, you just don't have it on darwin
[01:48] <MikeyMike> ok
[01:48] <georgy> unfg : i think you maybe the wrong module loaded
[01:48] <MikeyMike> i dont understand these flags at all
[01:48] <MikeyMike> the primary always evaluates to true........ the primary what ? lol
[01:48] <LjL> MikeyMike: hold on a second, i should be able to guess the right syntax
[01:48] <MikeyMike> okay
[01:48] <simon__> Hi guys do u know a great application for visual system monitoring
[01:48] <georgy> unfg : for hostname you need a dns server
[01:48] <unfg> georgy: how do i tell.. i just want it to be a client on my network.. not a dhcp server
[01:49] <unfg> georgy: my router should act as the dns right? i can ping all the other pcs in the house
[01:49] <newpZ> dapper uses ext2?
[01:49] <LjL> MikeyMike: do you have awk on mac os? (try typing "awk")
[01:49] <MikeyMike> okay
[01:49] <MikeyMike> yep
[01:49] <LjL> MikeyMike: lacking that, do you have "cut"?
[01:49] <LjL> MikeyMike: ok
[01:49] <MikeyMike> cut too
[01:49] <SuperMiguel> !gnu
[01:50] <ubotu> G(NU's) N(ot) U(nix). A project that aimed to develop a complete operating system of Free Software, which Ubuntu is based on. See http://gnu.org
[01:50] <georgy> unfg : yes, but not for the linux hostname
[01:50] <LjL> MikeyMike: try   find -ls | awk ' { print $7 } ' | sort -n
[01:50] <runa> hey :) what can I use to translate a subtitle in subrip format to srt?
[01:50] <MikeyMike> illegal option for find -- l
[01:50] <LjL> uh...
[01:50] <MikeyMike> thast strange
[01:50] <georgy> runa : I use jubler
[01:51] <LjL> MikeyMike: whoops, no it's not. i *thought* i was looking at the Darwin man page, but i was not =)
[01:51] <unfg> georgy: ok but since it has my router as its nameserver.. it should be able to resolve my other pcs.. when i try to ping themi get host not found
[01:51] <MikeyMike> LjL,
[01:51] <MikeyMike> find: illegal option -- l
[01:51] <MikeyMike> lol
[01:51] <MikeyMike> what in the world
[01:51] <MikeyMike> you didnt even pass -l to find
[01:51] <LjL> uhm well actually, i'm not sure i was not... do you have "-ls" mentioned on your man page?
[01:51] <runa> georgy: java. let's see
[01:51] <MikeyMike> yea i do
[01:51] <MikeyMike> LjL,  can i query you with the entry
[01:51] <fourat> my system is running with UTF8 as default, i would like to change that, anyone can help ?
[01:52] <MikeyMike> LjL,  ?
[01:52] <LjL> MikeyMike: try   find . -ls | awk ' { print $7 } ' | sort -n
[01:52] <unfg> georgy: heres something else.. i can ping the other PCs behind the router by IP but not by hostname
[01:52] <MikeyMike> LjL,  hahah that displayed a TON of numbers
[01:52] <MikeyMike> ending in largest
[01:52] <LjL> MikeyMike: ok, that's correct
[01:52] <MikeyMike> LjL,  yeah but no filenames or nothing haha
[01:53] <LjL> MikeyMike: try   find . -ls | awk ' { print $7 " " $9 } ' | sort -n
[01:53] <stribb> -printf is a good answer here
[01:53] <georgy> unfg: you right, but it seems that you have a wrong module loaded, that's why I asked you to pastebin your lsmod
[01:53] <MikeyMike> shows a 2 digit number after the main number
[01:53] <LjL> stribb: he's on mac os...
[01:53] <bsytko> Hi, is it possible to use a Kunbutu repository for Ubuntu? I want to install the newest Amarok and I only see a Kubuntu repository
[01:53] <MikeyMike> LjL,  here's an example 18453168 29
[01:53] <MikeyMike> 22423304 8
[01:53] <MikeyMike> 22908766 13
[01:53] <MikeyMike> lol
[01:53] <stribb> Oh. So he's on the right channel then.
[01:53] <MikeyMike> :)
[01:53] <MikeyMike> i figured it would be clo0se enough....
[01:54] <SuperMiguel> there is any way to put an access password to an apache2 server?
[01:54] <LjL> MikeyMike: well, it's probably the wrong field of ls then... try $10, or $8, or something, instead of $9
[01:54] <MikeyMike> the mac ppl are all like DONT TOUCH ANYTHING... LEAVE IT ALONE...
[01:54] <stribb> Why?
[01:54] <LjL> stribb: yeah :)
[01:54] <opixus> bsytko: yes it is
[01:54] <bsytko> opixua: Thank you
[01:54] <armin> Yes, I just installed Amarok 1.4.3 on Ubuntu
[01:54] <mcphail> SuperMiguel: of course
[01:54] <SuperMiguel> mcphail: how?
[01:54] <MikeyMike> LjL,  getting closer.... first it was year..... now its time..... haha
[01:54] <LjL> MikeyMike: (you possibly need ${10} instead of $10, for two digit numbers)
[01:54] <alex_ubuntu> newpZ; thanks, anyway to test this reconfig before using it
[01:54] <MikeyMike> LjL,  now its location haha
[01:55] <LjL> MikeyMike: yeah, well, the path name should be there somewhere =)
[01:55] <stribb> SuperMiguel: do you just want to password-protect the whole server?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> 11 was path
[01:55] <MikeyMike> :)
[01:55] <unfg> georgy: can you just tell me which module needs to be loaded?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> second variable should be $11
[01:55] <MikeyMike> for path
[01:55] <MikeyMike> whats the first variable?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> size?
[01:55] <MikeyMike> can it be re-displayed in megs
[01:55] <mcphail> SuperMiguel: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html
[01:55] <SuperMiguel> stribb: i want that just me can access to the web page
[01:55] <stribb> number of blocks used, iirc
[01:55] <LjL> MikeyMike: apparently the man page forgot about some fields... when i counted it, filename would have turned out to be $9 :)
[01:55] <MikeyMike> oh okay
[01:55] <stribb> SuperMiguel: oh, constrain it to serving on <IP_ADDRESS> then
[01:55] <MikeyMike> LjL,  path is 11 if im not mistaken :)
[01:55] <LjL> MikeyMike: don't ask for too much
[01:56] <MikeyMike> with filenames.....
[01:56] <MikeyMike> LjL,   haha
[01:56] <MikeyMike> thanks :)
[01:56] <MikeyMike> see once i played with the variables i understood the command
[01:56] <georgy> unfg : try sudo modprobe tulip
[01:56] <MikeyMike> im a spatial learner.....
[01:56] <MikeyMike> lol
[01:56] <stribb> SuperMiguel: with Listen <IP_ADDRESS>:80
[01:56] <SuperMiguel> stribb: i want to have acess from other places but just me
[01:56] <MikeyMike> LjL,  thanks alot
[01:56] <stribb> SuperMiguel: so .... <sigh> you want to put password-protection on every page?
[01:57] <MikeyMike> now im going to save that command and dissect it
[01:57] <mcphail> SuperMiguel: follow the howto i posted
[01:57] <MikeyMike> so i can use it often :)
[01:57] <jordan> I am using Edgy with an ATI card and DRI doesn't work with fglrx ( I have already disabled the composite extention ).
[01:57] <SuperMiguel> stribb: yep
[01:57] <stribb> SuperMiguel: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html
[01:57] <LjL> MikeyMike: find . -ls | awk ' { print $7/(1024*1024) " " $11 } ' | sort -n
[01:58] <MikeyMike> LjL,  HAHAHA AMAZING
[01:58] <MikeyMike> LjL,  thanks :)
[01:58] <MikeyMike> i see what you did too... divided by 1024
[01:59] <stribb> by 1024*1024 even
[01:59] <MikeyMike> why does it have to be 1024*1024
[01:59] <stribb> to get megs
[01:59] <MikeyMike> oh right
[01:59] <MikeyMike> otherwise its not megs
[01:59] <MikeyMike> its kb
[02:00] <stribb> I'm dead impressed by the support levels on #ubuntu
[02:00] <MikeyMike> yah they even help ppl not using ubuntu...... haha
[02:00] <MikeyMike> well i am an ubuntu user actually....
[02:00] <stribb> I think I would probably last 5 minutes before going insane and running rampage around the centre of Tokyo
[02:00] <haploid_> tf
[02:01] <MikeyMike> stribb,  you live in japan? :)
[02:01] <stribb> MikeyMike: not yet
[02:01] <MikeyMike> stribb,  planning to?
[02:01] <strav> anyone familiar with vgetty (and perhaps intel 536ep0 modems?)
[02:01] <alex_ubuntu> newpZ; thanks it works great.. KUDOS
[02:01] <orbital04> hello! How can I get Totem (comes with dapper) to play dvd's? It want 'proprietary plugins', I did the EasyUbuntu install of plugins and still Totem won't play dvd's........what to do?
[02:01] <stribb> I might just fly there, go green and scaly and *then* run rampage.
[02:02] <MikeyMike> stribb,  that works.....
[02:02] <stribb> Hm, upon further reflection, I am already green and scaly.
[02:02] <ubutom> !dvd > orbital04
[02:02] <LjL> MikeyMike: actually, it depends on what "megs" you wanted
[02:02] <MikeyMike> LjL,  megabytes
[02:02] <MikeyMike> ?
[02:02] <MikeyMike> :)
[02:02] <jordan> orbital04, First, you know that DVD playback on linux is of questionable legality.
[02:03] <LjL> MikeyMike: strictly speaking, a "megabyte" is 1000000 bytes. a "mebibyte" is 1024*1024 bytews
[02:03] <stribb> *snork*
[02:03] <MikeyMike> hey no mebibytes
[02:03] <WhatThe> orbital04, try automatix
[02:03] <MikeyMike> im not with tthat stupid standard
[02:03] <LjL> MikeyMike: most often though, when one says "megabyte" they really mean "mebibytes"
[02:03] <MikeyMike> what?
[02:03] <jordan> orbital04, If you are OK with that ( Or don't live in the U.S ) I can help you :)
[02:03] <MikeyMike> since when
[02:03] <orbital04> i'm ok, your ok ;)
[02:04] <LjL> MikeyMike: since a long time, at least in the majority of computing people... 1k=1024
[02:04] <MikeyMike> yerah
[02:04] <MikeyMike> ahhhh i see what you're saying
[02:04] <orbital04> i guess automatix may have some extras in there that might help...
[02:04] <stribb> A megabyte is 1024**3 bytes
[02:04] <MikeyMike> yeah i know
[02:04] <jordan> orbital04, Wait a second while I find the repository.
[02:04] <MikeyMike> mega in other mediums is not 1024
[02:04] <MikeyMike> only in computers
[02:04] <LjL> stribb: ^3?
[02:04] <WhatThe> yep, it helped me out a heap. Installs all manor of usefull stuff
[02:05] <LjL> stribb: excuse me but, one byte is 1024^0, one kilobyte (well, kibibyte) is 1024^1, one megabyte (mebibyte) is 1024^2...
[02:05] <LjL> stribb: ah :)
[02:05] <MikeyMike> LjL,  yeah its so silly that computers couldn't measure data the "right" way
[02:05] <MikeyMike> mega = 1000 damnit.
[02:05] <MikeyMike> :-P
[02:06] <MikeyMike> all those stray bits add up when you get into the gigs
[02:06] <LjL> MikeyMike: they can. it's just that computing people tend to think in terms of powers of two... it's easier for many things
[02:06] <MikeyMike> hd manufacturers take advantage of this....
[02:06] <MikeyMike> LjL,  o
[02:06] <LjL> MikeyMike: hd manufacturers actually use powers of *ten* usually -- they take advantage of the fact that people think they're actually using powers of two
[02:06] <MikeyMike> LjL,  someone told me to do du -h hahaha
[02:07] <MikeyMike> wow
[02:07] <MikeyMike> super hax then...
[02:07] <stribb> LjL: and people just know that the hard disk manufacturers short change them
[02:07] <LjL> MikeyMike: that only shows directories
[02:07] <MikeyMike> true
[02:07] <MikeyMike> LjL,  i just realized this
[02:07] <jordan> orbital04, OK, I found the site but it seems to be down ( http://plf.zarg.org )
[02:07] <MikeyMike> LjL,  it doesn' sort by size either
[02:07] <esac> ive had my computer just randomly reboot twice today. any ideas how i can figure out why
[02:08] <LjL> MikeyMike: well no, you still need a | sort -n after that
[02:08] <stribb> how's about du -ak
[02:08] <LjL> stribb: looks good :)
[02:08] <MikeyMike> LjL,  that still doesnt work
[02:08] <jordan> orbital04, Mabie the project is defunct :) Sorry, I havn't done this is a while :)
[02:08] <georgy> jordan : deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/ dapper free non-free
[02:08] <MikeyMike> oh wait
[02:09] <newpZ> alex_ubuntu, glad to hear it!
[02:09] <Zoffix> Hi, I'm unintalling VMPlayer and I'm getting this message in the console, and this annoying beeping every 5 seconds """Message from syslogd@zoffix at Mon Oct  9 20:06:51 2006 ...zoffix kernel: [17225107.384000]  unregister_netdevice: waiting for vmnet1 to become free.

[02:09] <Zoffix> what do I do?
[02:09] <shwag> how do I setup apache to execute a cgi file ?
[02:09] <LjL> stribb: well, for asking a Mac OS question on here, he deserved all that find and awk rambling anyway :P
[02:09] <newpZ> now how do u go about installing a mouse theme in gnome?
[02:09] <jordan> georgy, Does that have libdvdcss?
[02:09] <Zoffix> shwag: ask in #apache
[02:09] <georgy> jordan : yes and codecs
[02:09] <stribb> LjL: yeah :)
[02:10] <orbital04> i'll take a looksee..
[02:10] <stribb> What's a mouse theme?
[02:10] <LjL> stribb: mouse *pointer* theme...
[02:11] <jordan> orbital04, Add "deb http://packages.freecontrib.org/ubuntu/plf/ dapper free non-free" to your sources.list.
[02:11] <georgy> orbital : you have to put this line in your /etc/apt/sources.list file
[02:11] <jordan> orbital04, gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:11] <stribb> LjL: thanks
[02:11] <tich> i have a wierd problem-- my external drive was formatted on my partners mac and now it won't let me do stuff. how can i change this without reformatting?
[02:12] <Jbirk> Installing Ubuntu on my other box
[02:12] <LjL> stribb: were you thinking on the lines of apt-get install mousepad?  When I go to play World Of Warcraft after I select my character the game just closes off.
[02:14] <ekekekekeke> i have a windows network and machines and want to share the info.
[02:14] <jadacyrus> I have no windows computers
[02:14] <kitche> foo what's the authenciation method your trying to use?
[02:14] <Dreamglider> they are not replacments for harddisk installed oses
[02:14] <orbital04> hmmm, i downloaded something that showed up as 'bogus'
[02:14] <georgy> eke : you need to config samba
[02:14] <foo> kitche: rsa or dsa key
[02:14] <Jbirk> Here is the deal
[02:14] <Jbirk> YOu make a floppy disk image
[02:14] <ekekekekeke> georgy i used slackware before never used
[02:14] <ekekekekeke> ubuntu.
[02:14] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: you should be able to access your windows network through ubuntu without setting up samba. Samba enables windows computers to access data on an ubuntu computer.
[02:14] <Jbirk> Then you use Nero or Roxio
[02:15] <Jbirk> or CD Burner XP Pro
[02:15] <Jbirk> whatever
[02:15] <Jbirk> and you tell it to use a bootable cd
[02:15] <Jbirk> that emulates a floppy drive
[02:15] <Jbirk> then point it to the floppy image
[02:15] <Jbirk> and put in a CD
[02:15] <Jbirk> It will burn it
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> hi all
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> please, i need a simple help
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> about configuring and using
[02:15] <kitche> foo: the host must be missing the authorized_keys file is it on the host that you know of?
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> my 56k modem
[02:15] <ekekekekeke> dabaR i used slackware before.  and new into ubuntu
[02:15] <LaRevolucion> onto a laptop pc
[02:15] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: have you read this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba ?
[02:16] <orbital04> well thanks for trying, guess I'll have to resort to XP for dvd's :(
[02:16] <ekekekekeke> no i dont have ubuntu installed
[02:16] <orbital04> by now
[02:16] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: that page is on the Internet, so feel free to read it from the OS you now use.
[02:16] <maxLF> HELP! When I play world of warcraft under wine once I pick my character the game shows a loading screen then just shuts off
[02:17] <dabaR> *on the web
[02:17] <ekekekekeke> install seems hard.
[02:17] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: there is nothing to install. Like I said, no need for samba to access windows shares from ubuntu.
[02:18] <brendonjt> hey all  what is the minuim requirements for dapper?
[02:18] <LaRevolucion> no help for me? :(
[02:18] <ekekekekeke> ohhh ok.
[02:18] <daxxar> It seems a shellscript in my crontab is getting killed (regularly). The shellscript is thoroughly written and checks for all kinds of failures, and the task of it is to unpack an archive. The issue is that the contents of the archive appear halfway unpacked, and the script not registering any faults. I can't seem to reproduce it, but it happens quite often. (And is very annoying). Anyone know what the cause could be?
[02:18] <daxxar> Is there any timer or similar on how long cronjobs can run?
[02:18] <LjL> brent: i'd say, 3 gig HD and 192 megs of ram. and a pentium/K6
[02:18] <ekekekekeke> because i just want to access my files from linux machine
[02:18] <LjL> *very* minimum
[02:18] <Jbirk> Hum
[02:19] <ekekekekeke> that i have on my other machines.
[02:19] <Jbirk> Just now, I am at Prepare disk space
[02:19] <jordan> LaRevolucion, I probably can't help, but I'll try, What model is the modem?
[02:19] <nordle> hi, tried #xine but no joy.  Does gxine have OSD like xine?  I cant seem to see it working.  ie when I change volume there is no bar on screen telling me what the level is etc
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> off... i didn't know exactly
[02:19] <Jbirk> I slected Erase entire disk: IDE1 master (hda)100.0 GB Maxtor 6L100P0
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> wait
[02:19] <Jbirk> I have nothing but an XP Pro install
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> jordan
[02:19] <LaRevolucion> the problem
[02:20] <Jbirk> how long does it take to erase the disk?
[02:20] <Jbirk> It seems to be not doing anything
[02:20] <LaRevolucion> is that i want to open a console to send at commands
[02:20] <Jbirk> I am confused
[02:20] <LaRevolucion> to the modem
[02:20] <LaRevolucion> is it possible?
[02:20] <dabaR> Jbirk: wait about 10 minutes, then conclude failure.
[02:20] <Jbirk> It worked fine on my laptop
[02:20] <Jbirk> It runs like a champion
[02:20] <Jbirk> It detected the wireless and everythign
[02:20] <ekekekekeke> 56k sucks.
[02:21] <ekekekekeke> your probably in old non digital world
[02:21] <jordan> LaRevolucion, What do you mean by 'send at commands'?
[02:21] <LaRevolucion> yeah but i need
[02:21] <stribb> LaRevolucion: you have an external modem?
[02:21] <Jbirk> do I need fdisk?
[02:21] <stribb> Aww, children :)
[02:21] <Jbirk> should I pull up a terminal and fdisk this mother?
[02:21] <LaRevolucion> no i have an internal modem
[02:21] <LaRevolucion> on a laptop
[02:21] <ekekekekeke> maybe its a winmodem
[02:21] <stribb> jordan: hayes AT command set.
[02:21] <ekekekekeke> may not work.
[02:21] <dabaR> ekekekekeke: that is not encouraging
[02:22] <ekekekekeke> external is much better.
[02:22] <LaRevolucion> yeah i know
[02:22] <Jbirk> sudo fdisk
[02:22] <jordan> stribb, Ok, I don't know much about modems so I'll leave it to you :)
[02:22] <georgy> LaRevolucion : try lspci in a console to find out your modem
[02:22] <LaRevolucion> thanks
[02:22] <stribb> LaRevolucion: do you have a ttyS2 in your dmesg output?
[02:23] <stribb> jordan: in essence, you connect to the serial port that is plugged into your modem
[02:23] <stribb> and then send it the Hayes commands that way

[02:30] <dabaR> sidny4: /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh is a file to which you can append commands to run at startup. the openssh-server package installs an sshd and runs it at startup for you. is there noip  package?
[02:30] <georgy> ! modems
[02:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about modems - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:31] <georgy> ! modem
[02:31] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[02:31] <sidny4> yeah, I just found it in the universe repo, you need to turn it on but it seems to work fine
[02:31] <stribb> That modem is a winmodem and I don't believe Lucent have released the spec for it
[02:31] <Dreamglider> in terminal how do i copy a dir with all files and sub dirs from Windows(ntfs) to my usb disk(fat32)
[02:31] <dabaR> sidny4: yes, no-ip
[02:32] <sidny4> yup
[02:32] <LaRevolucion> stribb: so i can't do anythin'?
[02:32] <stribb> LaRevolucion: you can buy an external (serial) modem
[02:32] <stribb> They're pretty cheap
[02:32] <boris55> LaRevolucion there is a driver for that.
[02:32] <haploid_>  is there any known kernel filter that prevents data from making it from a usb device to its mapped file in /dev ?
[02:32] <boris55> I use it with my mepis disto on my laptop. seriously.
[02:32] <dabaR> Dreamglider: well, that depends on where the two disks are mounted. the command is "cp -R /source/path /target/path"
[02:33] <haploid_> in ubuntu( but not in fedora ) ?
[02:33] <LaRevolucion> boris55: these drivers are available for ubuntu also ?
[02:34] <wheelswitch> omg ogle is awsome
[02:34] <haploid_> as previously mentioned, we are willing to pay $200 for a solution to our /dev/hiddev0 issue

[02:38] <moxxxa> ic,
[02:39] <moxxxa> how do u use your linux, im just a biggineer
[02:39] <boris55> looks interesting, though you need another computer to run it.
[02:39] <dabaR> drumline_: there is an official ubuntu book: http://www.phptr.com/bookstore/product.asp?isbn=0132435942&rl=1 You could learn about most things online, with something as simple as wikipedia + wiki.ubuntu.com
[02:39] <darkghost> ubotu: i have install almost all the codecs their and i only miss the real media ?
[02:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i have install almost all the codecs their and i only miss the real media ? - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:40] <esac> ive had my computer just randomly reboot twice today. any ideas how i can figure out why
[02:40] <esac> SuperMiguel: ask the administrator ?
[02:41] <Phuzion> SuperMiguel:  sudo does wonders of overriding permissions if that's what you're talking about
[02:41] <dabaR> SuperMiguel: can you sudo on this computer?
[02:41] <WhatThe> esac, what were you doing at the time? what apps were running?
[02:41] <esac> darkghost: have you tried VLC or easyubuntu ?
[02:41] <boris55> you boot off the floppy and then that's the entire firewall program. The idea is that there is not enough room to break the firewall and load any malicious programs.
[02:41] <esac> WhatThe: parallels, xchat, tsclient and firefox .. both times i was away from the computer
[02:41] <moxxxa> the coyote itself
[02:42] <boris55> esac - check you memory configuration. I had a board that would not work with 400MHZ Dram. I turned it back to 333MHz and not had a problem since
[02:42] <esac> boris55: its a sony vaio laptop with sony installed memory
[02:43] <WhatThe> esac, i'm not familiar with parallels, what is that? and do you have power saving settings on your laptop?
[02:43] <darkghost> esac: no
[02:43] <jmkogut> Are there any registered issues with video playing corrupt in Dapper Drake?

[02:44] <dabaR> Dreamglider: spaces are escaped using the \ character.
[02:44] <jmkogut> I boot into slax and it plays perfectly, but Drake plays it far oversaturated
[02:44] <carlos> I`m trying to install Python. So, i`ve downloaded the .tgz and unpacked it. Now i don`t know what to do... can u help me?
[02:44] <darkghost> esac: but kaffeine crash when i try to add any .rm file
[02:44] <jmkogut> carlos: pm
[02:44] <boris55> easc, turn off acpi and see if that helps
[02:44] <esac> WhatThe: parallels desktop, like vmware. display is set to turn off after 28 minutes, but everything else is set to never turn off
[02:44] <dabaR> Dreamglider: tab completion is really cool for this. try typing in part of the name, and press tab.
[02:44] <tag> I'm running breezy, has anyone seen this before?
[02:44] <tag> apache2: ./src/btree.c:588: initPage: Assertion `pPage->pParent==pParent' failed.
[02:45] <marc__> How stable, close to release is edgy eft?
[02:45] <esac> marc__: arent ubuntu releases every march and october typically ?
[02:45] <newpZ> 50% of the time when i pull the power cord out of my laptop gnome announces "NO POWER SHUTTING DOWN!" then it shuts off.... is this is known issue?
[02:45] <dabaR> marc__: it is in beta testing atm - > http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/581
[02:46] <dabaR> marc__: what is a possible answer to how stable something is?
[02:46] <stribb> My Thinkpad suspends to disk happily .. but doesn't resume from disk
[02:46] <stribb> any ideas how to fix it?
[02:46] <esac> newpZ: i dont know but sometimes it says "Your computer is running on battery power. It has 8 minutes (98%) left until the battery needs to be recharged." :)
[02:46] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Does anyone know why program icons that run in the "taskbar" would suddenly stop?
[02:46] <dabaR> esac: april and october
[02:46] <Jbirk> can I connect my ubuntu computer to a widnows PC via crossover?
[02:46] <Neon_Gen_Eva> stop being in the taskbar i mean
[02:46] <Jbirk> and get the internet through it?
[02:46] <esac> stribb: have no tried nolapic on the kernel command line ?
[02:46] <anon32> upgrading my kernel broke my winmodem :-(((((
[02:47] <stribb> noapic?
[02:47] <dabaR> Neon_Gen_Eva: they got deleted? have you tried readding them?
[02:47] <Jbirk> or do I have to setup Internet connection sharing and all kinds of bullshit?
[02:47] <anon32> Jbirk, you can just use Internet Connection Sharing on your Windows PC
[02:47] <newpZ> esac, yeah its buggy.,,, only bad that it will power off my laptop
[02:47] <marc__> I should elaborate, I just bought a new laptop and want to install ubuntu on it, I would rather not have to install again in a month, is it stable enough to install now?
[02:47] <anon32> seems easier than trying to use VPN
[02:47] <Neon_Gen_Eva> No, they're still on there, but when I run them, they don't appear in the taskbar
[02:47] <newpZ> now i know to save all my stuff before i unplug the powercord hehe
[02:47] <rowdy_> hello
[02:47] <esac> newpZ: set your laptop not to turn off when the power gets low ?
[02:47] <anon32> VNC*
[02:47] <Neon_Gen_Eva> like when you use gaim, or GFTP
[02:47] <dabaR> marc__: not for production machines, it is in testing still.
[02:47] <Neon_Gen_Eva> the smaller icon on the panel
[02:48] <stribb> marc__: if you're asking questions like this, you want the stable distribution
[02:48] <rowdy_> I have a problem with hostap_pci, can anybody help me please
[02:48] <Neon_Gen_Eva> it doesn't show up
[02:48] <newpZ> esac, good point
[02:48] <newpZ> hehe
[02:48] <newpZ> done!
[02:48] <rowdy_> I have a problem with hostap_pci, can anybody help me please
[02:48] <Dreamglider> dabaR the tab does not work
[02:49] <dabaR> Neon_Gen_Eva: you need a specific panel (taskbar in windows) applet, called the notification area or something to that aextent. add it to your panel by right clicking on it.
[02:49] <jordan_> Dreamglider, Ehat IRC client are you using?
[02:49] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Right, i'll try that.

[02:52] <newpZ> were do u install beryl from?

[02:52] <Jay_Levitt> Phuzion: I'm so-so with DNS, what's the problem?
[02:52] <esac> Phuzion: modify /etc/resolv.conf
[02:52] <Phuzion> stribb:  I know DNS is fine, I'm using DNS right now
[02:53] <ChelSea2k> AfterDeath, NO
[02:53] <stribb> Phuzion: ask them to put your host in DNS
[02:53] <Phuzion> esac:  Identical to the machine that I'm on and there are no DNS problems here
[02:53] <Dreamglider> source /media/windows/Documents and Settings/Regin target /media/USBHD1/Gericom
[02:53] <ChelSea2k> AfterDeath, NO
[02:53] <ChelSea2k> AfterDeath, NO

[02:53] <Phuzion> stribb:  I run my own DNS
[02:53] <dabaR> a server?
[02:53] <wickedly_cool> really? hows that?
[02:53] <stribb> Phuzion: well, put it in yourself
[02:53] <Phuzion> Router does it for me
[02:53] <wickedly_cool> what kind of router?
[02:53] <Jbirk> this sucks
[02:53] <Phuzion> WRT54G
[02:53] <Jbirk> Why does Widnows think it must use <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:53] <Dreamglider> dabaR  source /media/windows/Documents and Settings/Regin target /media/USBHD1/Gericom
[02:53] <Phuzion> It just acts as a DNS router, it doesn't actually resolve the names
[02:54] <AfterDeath> uh
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> that doesnt act as a dns it assigns it automaticly for you
[02:54] <AfterDeath> someone kban ChelSea2k please
[02:54] <Phuzion> wickedly_cool, i realize that it doesn't actually resolve the names
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> an adress comes from your isp
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> and it knows that it is dns or your dhcp ip
[02:54] <stribb> An IP comes from your ISP
[02:54] <Phuzion> wickedly_cool, I have 192.168 addresses within my network
[02:54] <carlos> how can I access a windows partition from ubuntu?
[02:54] <dabaR> Dreamglider: sudo cp -R /media/windows/Documents\ and\ Settings/Regin /media/USBHD1/Gericom should do it.
[02:54] <wickedly_cool> <IP_ADDRESS> or 0.1
[02:55] <Phuzion> 1.1
[02:55] <Neon_Gen_Eva> dabaR, it must still be installed, I haven't removed it.
[02:55] <ChelSea2k> AfterDeath, why
[02:55] <Phuzion> And the server's address is <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:55] <wickedly_cool> i use <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:55] <AfterDeath> spamming
[02:55] <esac> Phuzion: try modifying /etc/resolv.conf .. put "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" on the first line minus the quotes, and "nameserver <IP_ADDRESS>" on the second line. does dns work then ?
[02:55] <wickedly_cool> with subnet <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:55] <dabaR> Neon_Gen_Eva: just right click the panel, and select add to panel. then add a notification area, and see the results. Please try.
[02:55] <ChelSea2k> AfterDeath, IM SO SORRY LOL
[02:55] <esac> wickedly_cool: thats way to open of a subnet :)
[02:55] <Phuzion> esac:  I want the router to do all of the dns routing, I don't want one machine calling outside for DNS when 4 other do it fine off <IP_ADDRESS>
[02:55] <Phuzion> 1.1*
[02:56] <stribb> esac: why can't he use <IP_ADDRESS>/24?
[02:56] <wickedly_cool> you have to have a dedicated dns server
[02:56] <kitche> Phuzion: umm your router gets the DNS from outside
[02:56] <Jbirk> Is it going to bust anything if I use <IP_ADDRESS>/24
[02:56] <ikus060> There is a graphical interface in the ubuntu server version ? Because I want to use this computer has a VNC server. If not, there is a easy way to install it ?
[02:56] <Phuzion> People
[02:56] <Phuzion> I know my router gets the DNS from outside
[02:56] <Phuzion> I get that
[02:56] <tritium> !enter
[02:56] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[02:56] <Phuzion> What I'm saying is this
[02:56] <Jbirk> or perhaps <IP_ADDRESS>/8
[02:56] <wickedly_cool> from isp... its just a waste to have one inside unless your planning on dns spoofing or something of that nature
[02:57] <stribb> wickedly_cool: no it's not

[02:57] <simtower> help me
[02:57] <Phuzion> wickedly_cool:  People, you don't get it, I don't want to have one machine calling out for DNS when 4 others do it fine going through the router
[02:57] <stribb> split-horizon. That's what it's called.
[02:57] <Jbirk> If I set my router up as <IP_ADDRESS>

[02:58] <Jbirk> If I set my router up as 12<IP_ADDRESS>/24 would Widnows be <IP_ADDRESS> and act as internet connection sharing?
[02:58] <Phuzion> I want this machine to work with the DNS server
[02:58] <Phuzion> The router, that is
[02:58] <ikus060> kitche : thank, I will try it .. It's my first time with a ubuntu server .. :)
[02:58] <stribb> Phuzion: so you're just saying that one machine isn't configured right for the local DNS server?

[03:00] <stribb> Phuzion: wasn't talking to you, I was talking to "wickedly_cool"
[03:00] <wickedly_cool> my theory on hacking is its ok to know how everything works and is operated and know its weaknesses, but its a totally another thing to actually apply what you know for evil purposes... I know what you can do with access to your own dns server dude...
[03:00] <Rehinold> dabaR: but I found only how to rip a DVD and it's not the same

[03:01] <kitche> Phuzion: edit /etc/resolv.conf and put in your router's ip in there
[03:01] <nadeem> a stupid question, there is no option/menu in nautilus to "invert selection" (??) select some files, click a menu and select the unselected files?
[03:01] <wickedly_cool> i didnt say i have any theories on cracking...
[03:01] <Phuzion> kitche:  I have already done that
[03:01] <Phuzion> Doesn't work
[03:01] <wickedly_cool> hacking is understanding how it works
[03:01] <nadeem> SuperMiguel, if you can't access the directory, you can't copy files to it ..
[03:01] <wickedly_cool> knowing its weaknesses so you can defend agaisnt them
[03:01] <MrJones> Hello
[03:01] <Phuzion> Alright, so something other than DNS is up it seems, now I can't even ping locally in my network
[03:01] <tpm> TheLance: sudo cp /path/to/newxorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:01] <maniacmusician> @TheLance: sudo cp path_to_new_xorg /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:01] <MrJones> I would like to know how to get to the root shell
[03:02] <Dreamglider> dabaR cp: cannot create regular file /media/USBHD1/Gericom.....
[03:02] <MrJones> I need to know so i can install a program
[03:02] <wickedly_cool> sudo bash
[03:02] <kitche> Phuzion: make sure the interface is up sudo ifup ethX
[03:02] <dabaR> Dreamglider: you used sudo?
[03:02] <Phuzion> MrJones:  sudo -s works as well
[03:02] <Xenguy> MrJones: sudo -i
[03:02] <Phuzion> kitche:  Im sure it is
[03:02] <Dreamglider> dabaR yes
[03:02] <stribb> wickedly_cool: did I not read you right I thought you accused me of being into phishing scams?
[03:02] <mabus> !network
[03:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about network - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:02] <dabaR> Dreamglider: post the exact command and output to paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:03] <SuperMiguel> nadeem: how can i copy from one file to another using the terminal?
[03:03] <simtower> stribb: stop phishing me
[03:03] <wickedly_cool> no i was just assuming that anyone with their own dns server uses it for some out of the ordinary
[03:03] <kitche> wickedly_cool: Also people host their own websites with their own domain so that's what a internal DNS can be used for also
[03:03] <stribb> simtower: shan't
[03:03] <newpZ> hi im on ubuntu dapper, i just followed http://wiki.beryl-project.org/index.php/Install/Ubuntu/Dapper/XGL.... i restarted X and picked XGL for a session but from that point i can not get anything going
[03:03] <Llewxam> k how can i get my wireless pcmia linksys wpc54g v3 card working in dapper? ndiswrapper recognizes card and driver but i still can't connect. network manager doesn't help either. is there any other way to get this working? please?
[03:03] <simtower> stribb: it not funny
[03:03] <SuperMiguel> how can i copy from one folder to another using the terminal
[03:03] <simtower> newpZ, #ubuntu-xgl
[03:03] <nadeem> SuperMiguel, cp -r /dir1 /dir2
[03:04] <simtower> stribb, much better
[03:04] <dabaR> SuperMiguel: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BasicCommands
[03:04] <newpZ> simtower, thanks
[03:04] <tpm> SuperMiguel: cp -r /my/first/folder /some/other/folder
[03:04] <wickedly_cool> so whats up with your dns server? what do you use it for?
[03:04] <simtower> wickedly_cool, killing babies
[03:04] <wickedly_cool> do you have just a shit load of clients
[03:05] <dabaR> easy.
[03:05] <kitche> wickedly_cool: he uses it as a caching server
[03:05] <Llewxam> anyone at all?
[03:06] <wickedly_cool> yeah thats makes sense... like a proxy/cache server
[03:06] <Phuzion> !wireless
[03:06] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[03:06] <stribb> um, no, it's authoritative
[03:06] <wickedly_cool> but for dns names
[03:06] <Llewxam> tried it all. phuzion. nothing helps.
[03:06] <Phuzion> Worth a shot
[03:06] <Phuzion> lol
[03:06] <Rehinold> dabaR: do you know about this? configure: error: Missing header file ffmpeg/avcodec.h.
[03:06] <stribb> host web.wompom.org resolves to one IP address from outside the NAT
[03:06] <Lam_> if anyone is willing, can someone explain how to integrate 1/(x^3) ?
[03:06] <stribb> and an internal address from inside
[03:07] <dabaR> Rehinold: ya, you did not install all the dependencies, like the libffmpeg-dev package
[03:07] <|XK|BastionMisaw> anyone in here experinced in invsionfree and like harry potter pm me
[03:07] <Rehinold> dabaR: ok
[03:07] <dabaR> Llewxam: did you use sudo iwconfig ethX scan and saw your access point?
[03:07] <funkja> any ideas why the period on my num pad just beeps instead of printing a period? It happens on multiple computers and remotely as well.
[03:07] <dabaR> Rehinold: install all the packages shown in the page as dependencies.
[03:07] <Phuzion> funkja:  messed up keymaps?
[03:07] <Dreamglider> dabaR 26123
[03:07] <jshamash66> I am trying to access my Ubuntu pc's shared folders (I'm using Samba) from another computer running WinXP. The XP computer is finding my Ubuntu pc, but when I try to browse it, it says access is denied. I don't think it's a firewall problem, since both computers can ping each other. What should I do?
[03:08] <stribb> Lam_: 1/(x^3) is x^(-3)
[03:08] <|XK|BastionMisaw> anyone in here experinced in invsionfree and like harry potter pm me
[03:08] <funkja> how do I fix keymaps?
[03:08] <Llewxam> yea and it didn't show dabar
[03:08] <georgy> !samba
[03:08] <ubotu> samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[03:08] <Lam_> stribb: oh damn; .. thanks. lol :P
[03:08] <Phuzion> funkja:  Is it a standard US american keyboard?
[03:08] <funkja> yes
[03:08] <dabaR> Dreamglider: it seems it copied all the other files.
[03:09] <Phuzion> funkja:  sudo base-config
[03:09] <dabaR> Llewxam: does anything show up?
[03:09] <Phuzion> reselect american english keyboard
[03:09] <Dreamglider> dabaR no it stopped there
[03:09] <Llewxam> unrecognized wireless request: scan
[03:09] <funkja> phuzion: command not found
[03:10] <stribb> Llewxam: try scam. That's what all the phish0rz do.
[03:10] <stribb> Llewxam: are you a phish0r?
[03:10] <Phuzion> just type base-config then
[03:10] <Phuzion> maybe that will help
[03:10] <Llewxam> no stribb
[03:10] <stribb> I think you are because you're scanning for APs
[03:10] <dabaR> Llewxam: it is actually a iwlist command
[03:10] <dabaR> Llewxam: sudo iwlist ethX scan
[03:10] <dabaR> Dreamglider: try copying over to your hard disk first.
[03:10] <stribb> It's UnAmerican to scan for APs
[03:11] <esac> phish0r alert !
[03:11] <esac> call homeland security
[03:11] <dabaR> wth?
[03:11] <Llewxam> ok now it showed up dabar
[03:11] <jshamash66> How come when I try to browse my Ubuntu computer's shared folders from another computer running XP on the network, it says that access is denied?
[03:11] <dabaR> Llewxam: and do you know the command to associate yourself with your access point?
[03:11] <esac> jshamash66: wrong username/password ?
[03:11] <Phuzion> jshamash66:  It's because everything in Linux is authenticated
[03:11] <Phuzion> You need to provide a username and password to get to things
[03:12] <Llewxam> not from terminal no. i only used to do it though the gui in breezy
[03:12] <dabaR> Llewxam: sudo iwconfig ethX ssid <ssid> if I remember correctly.
[03:12] <dabaR> Llewxam: is there security on your access point?
[03:12] <jshamash66> esac: it doesn't even prompt for a username and password
[03:12] <Llewxam> yea there is. wep. i know the key by memory
[03:12] <Phuzion> Awesome
[03:12] <Phuzion> I fixed the DNS problem
[03:12] <Phuzion> I guess the wire that I had hooked up to the server went bad or something
[03:13] <Phuzion> Might be because there was a stack of 4 full size towers sitting on it
[03:13] <Phuzion> lol
[03:13] <dabaR> Llewxam: after the association to your access point command, run sudo iwconfig by itself, to see whether it is associated properly, afaicr
[03:14] <O2> Hello, everyone
[03:14] <Llewxam> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' got that error after running iwconfig ethX ssid <ssid>
[03:14] <kitche> Llewxam: <ssid> should be your essid for your router
[03:15] <dabaR> Llewxam: also, it is not ssid there, it should be essid
[03:15] <Jbirk> I am back
[03:15] <Llewxam> k
[03:15] <Jbirk> I got it working
[03:15] <dabaR> Llewxam: "man iwconfig" helps in this case
[03:15] <dabaR> Jbirk: good work.
[03:15] <Jbirk> What I did was connect a crossover cable from my linux box to my widnows 2003 server box
[03:15] <bsmntbombdood> whoa this is a big channel
[03:16] <dabaR> bsmntbombdood: size does not matter
[03:16] <boris55> can I set up my m$ keyboard to program a key to launch the calculator?
[03:16] <dabaR> bsmntbombdood: that's what my wife tells me anyhow.
[03:16] <Jbirk> Then I set my linux box to DHCP and finally took 2003 server and selected the NIC with the crossover and the NIC with the Internet connection and told it to bridge them
[03:16] <bsmntbombdood> dabaR: She's lying
[03:16] <Jbirk> then I went to the linux box and was able to ping my router
[03:16] <Llewxam> now that worked. and running iwconfig alone showed it's connected to the AP. somehow... it's listing the wep key as well
[03:16] <Jbirk> my netgear wireless router, which was a good sign
[03:16] <dabaR> Llewxam: hm...
[03:16] <Jbirk> because to ping it, It had to go through my widnows 2003 server box to its wireless card and to the wireless router
[03:17] <dabaR> usually you have to run sudo iwconfig key <key>
[03:17] <stribb> The reason women can't park a car.. because they've been told this |->  <-| is 6 in
[03:17] <Jbirk> It wouldn't ping by DNS name though
[03:17] <Jbirk> ping google.com woudln't work
[03:17] <Jbirk> so I did
[03:17] <Llewxam> did it just in case...
[03:17] <dabaR> Llewxam: after you enter the key, you are one step, sudo dhclient3 ethX, from having an IP address.
[03:17] <Jbirk> ifdown eth0 then ifup eth0 and it talked to my wireless access point, which gave it an IP address and full DNS info
[03:18] <Jbirk> It can now ping by name too and the Internet works
[03:18] <Jbirk> I am pulling 36 pacakge updates now
[03:18] <TheLance> Ubuntu+1
[03:18] <TheLance> #ubuntu+1
[03:18] <Llewxam> bound to <ip address> renewal in <time in seconds>
[03:18] <stribb> I wonder how much hurt there would be if www.google.com stopped responding to pings
[03:18] <dabaR> Llewxam: unplug ethernet cord, ping google.
[03:19] <Llewxam> one sec
[03:20] <stribb> (that's the sort of thing phish0rz do a11 the time)
[03:20] <OmniD> How do I find what is taking priority of my sound again? Also related: Is there a way to script command line commands into a file I can just execute
[03:21] <wickedpuppy> OmniD, of course .. to your second question
[03:21] <stribb> lsof /dev/snd/* /dev/audio /dev/pcm
[03:21] <OmniD> I thought there was a grep command
[03:21] <dabaR> /dev/dsp is what I remember being told once
[03:21] <stribb> OmniD: you may be able to squash it to a single invocation of fuser
[03:22] <stribb> dabaR: yeah, that not /dev/pcm, sorry
[03:22] <Llewxam> unknown host google.com
[03:22] <Llewxam> with the www.
[03:22] <stribb> Llewxam: I win!
[03:22] <OmniD> umm
[03:22] <OmniD> I got like 6 or 7 entries
[03:22] <dabaR> OmniD: just put #! /bin/bash on the first line of the file, and then make it executable, chmod +x <file>
[03:22] <crimsun> lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/snd/*   suffices.
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> hey guys.
[03:23] <wickedpuppy> OmniD, i would suggest searching for "bash scripting" on google for more info
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> doing a gentoo install, and figured that I'd inhabit this room for a while when I'm waiting.
[03:23] <stribb> dragonfyre13: are you really 13?
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> stribb, ummmm, no.
[03:23] <dabaR> Llewxam: and you have a valid IP address from your router? ifconfig will tell you. also, try pinging by IP <IP_ADDRESS> is comcast.com's IP address./
[03:23] <dragonfyre13> stribb, 19 actually.
[03:24] <stribb> dragonfyre13: why not, um, <picks a random channel>, #gentoo?
[03:24] <dragonfyre13> dabaR, comcast has a ton of addresses.
[03:24] <O2> could some one tell me:  where is the g++ in my computer
[03:24] <dabaR> crimsun: how come my epiphany hogs up the sound server sometimes on my ppc version of dapper?  Like google.
[03:25] <rowdy__> sorry got dc
[03:25] <wickedpuppy> O2, why you need to know where is it installed ?
[03:25] <dabaR> dragonfyre13: heh:)
[03:25] <OmniD> I can't read this
[03:25] <O2> wickedpuppy: why not?
[03:25] <OmniD> What does this mean how do I know what is taking up my sound
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, type whereis g++
[03:26] <dragonfyre13> dabaR, at least that's what I do. I used to use comcasts also, because it took less hops to get there, but it went down about once per month.
[03:26] <rowdy__> hello
[03:26] <dragonfyre13> dabaR, ^_^
[03:26] <O2> wickedpuppy: oh, thank you !
[03:26] <dabaR> Llewxam: not sure what is wrong. I can't believe we came this close. Maybe someone can figure it out. What we have so far is a valid IP address from your router.
[03:26] <dragonfyre13> stribb, so, how are things? I think I met you once before too? Or do you not use this name constantly?
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> O2, i still fail to see the point of knowing the location of the binary .. since you can run it anyhere
[03:26] <wickedpuppy> *anywhere
[03:27] <Llewxam> i dunno what's wrong either.... i used the same methods of configuration i did on 5.10 and nothing >.<'
[03:27] <stribb> dragonfyre13: mm, not bad. I just flew to Tokyo to remodel the central downtown because I grew scales and turned green.
[03:27] <OmniD> stribb: What does this output mean?
[03:27] <dabaR> Llewxam: that router gives you a working connection on other computers?
[03:27] <dabaR> Llewxam: I mean, right now
[03:28] <O2> wickedpuppy: I want to know! just so simple :)
[03:28] <Llewxam> yep. it's how i'm online here. and downloading torrents on my desktop. plus the 3rd computer in my house is browsing the internet and my psp is also browsing the internet.
[03:28] <wickedpuppy> stribb, tokyo is one place i won't be visiting now ...
[03:28] <dabaR> Llewxam: can you ping the router?
[03:28] <wickedpuppy> O2, lol ... you can find out about the files by doing whereis or which
[03:28] <stribb> OmniD: http://pastebin.ca/ -- paste the output there
[03:29] <Llewxam> i'll try that one sec
[03:29] <ReinH> what's the bash command to list processes?
[03:29] <wickedpuppy> ps ?
[03:29] <dabaR> ps aux
[03:29] <ReinH> what does the aux do?
[03:29] <fatbrain> !grub
[03:29] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:29] <dabaR> ReinH: man ps
[03:29] <dragonfyre13> wickedpuppy, just saw your comment. I'm installing gentoo on my test box. I'm a developer for West Corporation, and need something that I can write code on, and then port it to multiple platforms to test. I have a debian, ubuntu, gentoo, FreeBSD, ArchLinux, PCLinuxOS, and Fedora setup for partitions. I also have windows on here, since I'm not going to give it the dignity of it's own computer.
[03:29] <wickedpuppy> ReinH, man ps
[03:29] <stribb> ps aux prints lots about every process
[03:29] <ReinH> thanks and thanks
[03:29] <dragonfyre13> stribb, ^_^
[03:29] <ReinH> and thanks
[03:29] <Rookie_> ReinH - try the command and find out ;)
[03:30] <stribb> ps auxwww prints weally weally wide lots
[03:30] <wickedpuppy> Dragonfire1, thanks for replying :P
[03:30] <ReinH> well I'm going to grep it
[03:30] <ReinH> so thanks :)
[03:30] <mister_roboto> dragonfyre13: sounds like you need vmware :)
[03:30] <dragonfyre13> wickedpuppy, ^_^
[03:30] <wickedpuppy> agreed ... vmware is the one you need
[03:30] <esac> qemu
[03:30] <esac> parallels
[03:30] <stribb> wickedpuppy: aww, you could join me on the rampage
[03:30] <O2> wickedpuppy: thanks! but I want to say, if we don't know all this details, we wont master the system!
[03:31] <OmniD> stribb/whoever else: http://pastebin.ca/195753
[03:31] <mabus> What's with Christian Edition, why do people download it?
[03:31] <wickedpuppy> O2, if you want to master the system , i suggest google and man pages ... honestly irc is for short fixes ..
[03:31] <mabus> WHy do you need a distro suited to your religion... how does that even make sense?
[03:31] <dragonfyre13> mister_roboto, nope. I need the actual hardware interface, and I've tried VMWare. It emulates somethings well, but not enough. I also tried Qemu, but that doesn't even try to emulate the hardware, it just has "special" interfaces that use QEMU drivers or generic drivers.
[03:31] <Llewxam> hmm...
[03:31] <stribb> Hoho, Christian Edition of ubuntu.
[03:32] <foo> I want to make an ssh user so they can ssh into my box and then ssh into someone else's box. I want to set up ssh keys so they don't need to know the password for the second box. I'm trying to set up a chroot environment with http://www.ffnn.nl/pages/articles/linux/setting-up-a-chroot-jail-for-cvs.php#contentstart .. .but it's not working... ssh is saying I have an invalid rsa key. Any other ways to do this? Hm
[03:32] <Llewxam> trying to ping the router i get host unreachable... and yet somehow... i'm still on here o.0
[03:32] <dragonfyre13> esac, qemu doesn't emulate hardware at all, and parallels I use for personal, but it also doesn't emulate hardware.
[03:32] <Kyral> Seperation of Church and.....Distro?
[03:32] <Llewxam> and i'm on the wireless 0.o this is ... weird.
 What's with Christian Edition, why do people download it? >> Because it appeals to the american demographic
[03:32] <OmniD> I'm presonally against it, but it is not to be discussed here
[03:32] <dabaR> Llewxam: your router blocks ping requests?
[03:32] <dabaR> Llewxam: if it works, don't fix it.
[03:32] <stribb> annoyed, scared, whatever :)
[03:32] <mabus> Is there an Ubuntu: Muslim Edition in the works?
[03:33] <Kyral> OmniD: I am offended at that (Granted I am Catholic, but I love the concept of "Seperation of Church And State" )
[03:33] <Llewxam> well it's working right now.... surely if i reboot... will it still work?
[03:33] <dragonfyre13> OmniD, actually, the american, spanish, and southern american demographic.
[03:33] <OmniD> I'm personally not religious at all
[03:33] <Kyral> IMO your own afterlife is your business :P
[03:33] <stribb> OmniD: so, re your pastebin...
[03:33] <OmniD> huh?
[03:33] <stribb> you have 2 differend esd processes running.. that's gotta hurt
[03:33] <Kyral> and no one elses
[03:33] <OmniD> I posted it
[03:34] <OmniD> How do I stop them?
[03:34] <dragonfyre13> Kyral, thank you. Finally someone who actually doesn't convert everyone when they talk about religion.
[03:34] <dabaR> Llewxam: nope, you need to associate, enter key, and get an IP every time. This can be  added to /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh to run every time the computer starts if I understand the whole thing right.
[03:34] <stribb> kill <pid>
[03:34] <O2> does the g++ include gcc ?
[03:34] <stribb> If that doesn't work, OmniD, kill -9 <pid>
[03:34] <Jbirk> how do i enable all the restricted repositories
[03:34] <eracc> Wow! Good article on Bind 9! http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/355 :-)
[03:34] <Kyral> dragonfyre13: I only convert people when I talk about the Free Software Foundation :P
[03:34] <dabaR> Llewxam: or you can make a script file, and run it every time you want to connect.
[03:34] <dragonfyre13> stribb, OmniD "killall <name of process>"
[03:34] <stribb> (you can tell if it's worked by ps <pid>)
[03:34] <chuckyp> !tell Jbirk about restricted
[03:34] <stribb> dragonfyre13: no
[03:34] <dragonfyre13> Kyral, well duh! ^_^
[03:35] <wickedpuppy> O2, no ... g++ and gcc are different programs ... but if you installed build-essential then you should have gcc ...
[03:35] <dragonfyre13> stribb, ?
[03:35] <OmniD> What's the pid
[03:35] <stribb> killall *will* hurt you one of these days if you sit in front of a solaris box
[03:35] <chuckyp> wickedpuppy, build-essentials <---- isn't it?
[03:35] <stribb> OmniD: well, you see that pretty column marked "PID"?
[03:35] <stribb> It's in there.
[03:35] <wickedpuppy> chuckyp, thanks for fixing my type
[03:35] <Llewxam> well i'm bad at writing scripts.
[03:35] <wickedpuppy> typo
[03:35] <dabaR> Llewxam: what does your nickname mean and in what language?
[03:35] <dragonfyre13> stribb, if you are in front of a solaris, but for what he's doing here it's easier.
[03:35] <stribb> dragonfyre13: pkill is better
[03:36] <Llewxam> it's english dabaR. read it backwards.
[03:36] <Llewxam> it's my name :p
[03:36] <chuckyp> dabaR, it means maxwell
[03:36] <dragonfyre13> stribb, true. I just thought of killall first.  Figured it was elvish or something.
[03:36] <stribb> omnid: Try one and see
[03:37] <dragonfyre13> stribb, thought his intent was to kill both.
[03:37] <OmniD> what's the -9 do?
[03:37] <Llewxam> yea sounds elvish don't it? only know how to say one thing in elvish though....
[03:37] <dabaR> Llewxam: cool. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/26124/ shows an example of a script file.
[03:37] <stribb> If you have to kill both, run a new copy of esd
[03:37] <stribb> with $ esd &
[03:37] <dragonfyre13> Llewxam, what do you know how to say in elvish?
[03:37] <Llewxam> Aure Entuluva
[03:37] <stribb> eloi eloi, elbereth
[03:37] <dragonfyre13> OmniD, it tells it to kill no matter what, I think....
[03:37] <dabaR> elvish is not a real language.  I HATE GENTOO!!!!!!!!
[03:38] <eracc> stribb, or that. Yeah.
[03:38] <Llewxam> k page is not loading
[03:38] <Dreamglider> use ubuntu :)
[03:38] <dragonfyre13> The install died on me again. Dang it.
[03:38] <dabaR> Llewxam: /j #flood
[03:39] <stribb> Have I told anyone about the new command for reading mail really fast? rm -rf /
[03:39] <dragonfyre13> Dreamglider, yeah, I already do. Need this for a dev box.
[03:39] <Dreamglider> dev box!
[03:39] <chuckyp> stribb, lol  probably shouldn't post that in here.
[03:39] <dragonfyre13> stribb, be careful, there are N00bs in here.
[03:39] <stribb> but for optimum speed (yeah, speed) you have to do it through sudo
[03:39] <tritium> stribb: don't do that here...
[03:39] <eracc> Calling all NOOBERS! Ignore stribb ...
[03:39] <dragonfyre13> stribb, oh nice. I can just see a noob doing that.
[03:39] <OmniD> stribb: Sound still does not work in firefox even after restarting program
[03:40] <dragonfyre13> Dreamglider, yeah, as a dev box. I write them in ubuntu, port them to gentoo, debian, etc.
[03:40] <stribb> OmniD: hm, what's your lsof command give you now?
[03:40] <OmniD> I don't see why only one program can have sound at a time
[03:40] <OmniD> let's check
[03:40] <dragonfyre13> I've got to go. eracc, keep stribb from blowing up the planet.
[03:41] <minimec> OmniD: Do you have a problem with flash?
[03:41] <OmniD> Same thing minus 4985's process
[03:41] <dragonfyre13> OmniD, it's because your using OSS instead of alsa.
[03:41] <stribb> OmniD: only one process can write to the device
[03:41] <OmniD> minimec nope
[03:41] <OmniD> it works all the time
[03:41] <OmniD> even googlevideo and youtube work
[03:41] <stribb> That's what esd is for; to mix the sounds
[03:41] <eracc> OmniD, there is a way to allow several apps to play sounds while only allowing one access to record. I forget how ATM.
[03:41] <yellow> Thanks eracc ^^!
[03:41] <OmniD> dragonfyre13: I AM USING ALSA
[03:41] <yellow> Thanks OmniD :*
[03:41] <minimec> OmniD: But a sound problem?
[03:41] <yellow> Thanks minimec :*
[03:42] <OmniD> stribb: Then why is ESD not working?
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD :*
[03:42] <OmniD> wha
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD!
[03:42] <OmniD> ... you're welcome!
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD!
[03:42] <OmniD> What did I do
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks OmniD ^^!
[03:42] <Jbirk> how do i search with apt-get?
[03:42] <yellow> Thanks Jbirk!
[03:42] <OmniD> :/
[03:43] <yellow> Thanks OmniD!
[03:43] <dabaR> tritium: yellow
[03:43] <yellow> Thanks dabaR :*
[03:43] <Jbirk> did you get your bios upgraded?
[03:43] <yellow> Thanks Jbirk!
[03:43] <Jbirk> what did I do?
[03:43] <minimec> we are spammed !
[03:43] <stribb> it's spam, dolt
[03:43] <OmniD> It took me a while to figure that out
[03:43] <x-jd-x> hello
[03:43] <stribb> really?
[03:43] <OmniD> Okay so my ESD is not working
[03:43] <Jbirk> I want to know how to search apt-get
[03:44] <stribb> or your app is not trying to use it
[03:44] <stribb> Jbirk: apt-cache search <keywords>
[03:44] <OmniD> Well I actually think it does not work
[03:44] <bimberi> Jbirk: apt-cache search something
[03:44] <OmniD> None of my programs seem to ever "mix" together
[03:44] <stribb> Jbirk: or (better) use aptitude
[03:44] <OmniD> So I think it's the ESD
[03:44] <mister_roboto> Jbirk: apt-cache search --names-only
[03:44] <Jbirk> ESD?
