[06:20] <primary> I can't find those things in Synaptic, and I don't know where to get the "devel" packages. I'm very new to Ubuntu, and I just want my iPod to work without being corrupted :(
[06:20] <caligarn1037> is there a pdf version of the official ubuntu book out there?
[06:21] <cabrioleur> Creed, are your drivers installed? Can you manipulate volume?
[06:21] <eltux> how can I get my computer to talk to me? I have festival installed but it tells me Linux: can't open /dev/dsp
[06:21] <Jordan_U_> peacepipejv, Can you paste (pastebin if it's long ) the output of "sudo -l" ?
[06:21] <caligarn1037> free e-book?
[06:21] <ma1> how do i install GoogleEarthLinux.bin ?
[06:21] <ComPro> i'm a little concerned about my RAM usage I have two gigs of RAM, and i'm running gnome, pidgin, amarok, firefox, and a couple terminals, and "free -m" tells me i only have 72 mb of ram free. is this normal?
[06:21] <alex_L> google earth is in medibuntu repository
[06:21] <Creed> cabrioleur, alsamixer doesnt even start
[06:21] <cthulfuego> ComPro: yes
[06:21] <MystaMax_> ma1: i just sent you a link on how to install it, don't continue to ask
[06:21] <cabrioleur> Creed, I think it's easy

[06:21] <Creed> cabrioleur, alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device | /dev/dsp doesnt exist
[06:21] <thor_> primary: give me a sec...puilling up synaptic now
[06:21] <Mersault> t appear to work any longer
[06:21] <ComPro> cthulufuego: why is so much of the RAM being used?
[06:21] <cabrioleur> sudo modprobe snd-es18xx
[06:21] <Mersault> any ideas?
[06:22] <Hilikus> does aynone know of a program that will let me send messages trough ms messenger from a linux command shell?
[06:22] <savi0r666> ok i got the fstab file
[06:22] <Creed> cabrioleur, es? i have a cs4231 chipset
[06:22] <cthulfuego> ComPro: free ram is a waste of money, linux uses it as disk cache until it's needed by apps.

[06:23] <alex_L> Hi I got a problem. Ubuntu wont boot in normal or safe mode because firestarter conflicts with my ralink usb wireless card. Is tehre a way to boot into command line so I can uninstall firestarter?
[06:23] <peacepipejv> Jordan_U_: thats what it should be right?
[06:23] <Jordan_U_> peacepipejv, Yes
[06:23] <MystaMax_> alex_L: u can't boot into safe mode?
[06:23] <LGNR> hi, I have a problem configuring a AirLink 101 AWLL3025v2 wireless USB adapter: I've just installed Xubuntu Gutsy and my wlan0 interface doesn't appear when I issue ifconfig on the terminal (I only get the entry for the loopback interface), when I do lsmod | grep zd1211rw I can know that the device is being recognized by the kernel. I don't know what to do next, it seems that I won't need to ndiswrapper my card, thanks in advace
[06:23] <joshua__> hey everyone I haven't been able to solve this problem yet; I cant use sudo!!!
[06:23] <cabrioleur> try snd_cs4321
[06:23] <cthulfuego> alex_L: Hit 'e' on the Safe Mode lin in grub, then append "init=/bin/bash" (no quotes) to the line
[06:23] <Jordan_U_> peacepipejv, Any problems with any other programs?
[06:23] <Nyle>  ugh friggin irc floods

[06:24] <Creed> cabrioleur, any other ideas? modprobe snd-cs4231 works but doesnt output anything (im guessing its working).
[06:24] <cthulfuego> alex_L: That will boot into bash without running ANY scripts, and / will be read-only.
[06:24] <savi0r666> thats all that in there
[06:24] <bulmer> alex_L-> umm firestarter is a front end for a firewall..you cant boot in safe mode? thats seem odd
[06:24] <joshua__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45882/
[06:24] <cthulfuego> alex_L: Run 'mount -n -o remount,rw /'
[06:24] <cabrioleur> 4231, sorry
[06:24] <cabrioleur> I'm sleepy
[06:24] <cthulfuego> alex_L: Uninstall firestarter, mount -n -o remount,ro /; reset

[06:25] <cabrioleur> yeah, that's the one
[06:25] <biccoloso> server irc.efnet.net
[06:25] <Creed> cabrioleur, nada :-/ I had sound working about a week ago...reboot then it stopped, I don't think I did anything aside from update webmin and give the box a .net hostname.
[06:25] <chris__> anyone using UbuntuCE and Firefox
[06:26] <thor_> primary: you need to look through the errors, probably right there when they start, and try to figure out what is missing
[06:26] <savi0r666> hey someone i need help with a ubuntu install its not recognizing or mounting the drive
[06:26] <cabrioleur> does your lsmod display snd-cs4231?
[06:26] <savi0r666> cant see its partitions or anything
[06:26] <Creed> cabrioleur, doing that doesnt give any feedback, just does it and puts me back to terminal on a new line.
[06:26] <thor_> primary: there isn't an easy way to do that...sort of hit and miss
[06:26] <MystaMax_> hello, I'm having this weird problem where Ubuntu is reading blank CD-R's and DVD-R's, but not blank DVD Dual Layered? any reason why?

[06:27] <Creed> cabrioleur, aplay -l says no soundcards found as well.
[06:27] <peacepipejv> Jordan_U_: I can only apt-get as sudo -i
[06:27] <alex_L> cthulfuego: firestarter and rt73 drivers hate each otherr for some reason
[06:27] <alex_L> started with gutsy
[06:27] <peacepipejv> Jordan_U_: my sources list looks kinda weird
[06:28] <weltschmerz> does pulseaudio make dmix unnecessary?
[06:28] <WGGMk> anyone have any good firewall rules???

[06:59] <cool> fragile, i am faster than you :p
[06:59] <cool> hehe
[06:59] <savi0r666> well ive been "helped" what 3 times now and they ask for something then leave
[06:59] <savi0r666> what kind of help is that
[07:00] <kenotz> my firefox is closes automatically on gutsy. any idea why?
[07:00] <joshua__> how do you select all text in nano by the weay?
[07:00] <joshua__> way
[07:00] <fragile> kenotz open it from a command line and see what it says from there. it will usually give you some sort of information
[07:00] <Flannel> savi0r666: it's free help from volunteers who may have busy schedules
[07:00] <sauvin> joshua, I can't see a damn thing wrong with that sudoers file.
[07:00] <metathranelite> how do i get compiz fusion to actually work on gutsy i have it installed and the system says its there but none of the effects are ... effecting lol
[07:00] <savi0r666> well then how about you help me flannel
[07:01] <joshua__> sauvin:  all i know is that i cant do anything that requires sudo or root permission
[07:01] <SoundChaser> savi0r666, at least you've been helped - no one's been able to take a stab at my question so far...  (Not that it's really within the normal scope of this channel anyway -- 'twas hoping someone might have a thought though...)
[07:01] <sauvin> Something else is wrong, maybe. I can't see any difference between your sudoers file and mine.
[07:01] <sauvin> Bad EOL, maybe?
[07:01] <fragile> joshua__: take a look at mine.. it's a little different than yours.
[07:01] <joshua__> I had a samba application installed last night and I enetered a pass word for our nt server and it changed the fsudoers file
[07:02] <joshua__> eol?

[07:03] <peacepipejv> my apt-gets are all fixed. Thanx...anyway
[07:03] <sauvin> Did we forget our Seroquel today?
[07:03] <fragile> well there's this thing called the internet and "search engines" if you want to whine.
[07:03] <fragile> aw he left :(
[07:03] <cool> stupid lid
[07:03] <cool> ok kid
[07:03] <joshua__> fragile: will your sudoers file mess up my old root password?
[07:03] <SoundChaser> cool - lol
[07:04] <Flannel> joshua__: No, theyre completely separate things
[07:04] <fragile> definitely shouldn't, joshua__
[07:04] <joshua__> Flannel:  I thought so but figured I would ask
[07:04] <fragile> there's only one line difference that I saw, too.
[07:04] <sauvin> What's that?
[07:04] <fragile> let me get the pages back up
[07:05] <RipSUp> I have nxclient connecting to another machine, is there any way to bring up an app that's already open in that new session through nx
[07:05] <Flannel> joshua__: what errors were you having with sudo anyway?
[07:05] <joshua__> Well earlier today I pastebin what it originally looked like, i deleted all the SMB4k changes that were in it, by the way can I search the pastebin for the old entries?
[07:06] <joshua__> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45886/ lines 1-13
[07:06] <fragile> actually joshua__, there's no difference just some things in different placed, but they're the same file.
[07:06] <joshua__> what about the  %
[07:06] <cool> joshua__, also enable sudo insults, you when you type a wrong password it will give nice quotes :p
[07:07] <sauvin> You talking about %admin? that's in my sudoers, too.
[07:07] <brandon_> hey guys I need help with wine can someone help me?
[07:07] <sauvin> Whatever it is that's responsible for reading the sudoers file, could IT be b0rked?
[07:07] <fragile> what about what %? there's two by default, admin, and the other commented out.
[07:07] <joshua__> cool: whats the command for insults?\
[07:08] <cool> joshua__, this should help you http://www.bani.com.br/2007/01/17/sudo-insults/
[07:08] <joshua__> sauvin:  should I run a diff on the two files somehow?
[07:08] <Flannel> joshua__: add 'insults' to Defaults
[07:08] <cool> !ask | brandon_
[07:08] <ubotu> brandon_: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:08] <brandon_> cool: well its hard to explain
[07:09] <brandon_> cool: you know how you can change the size of the box for wine
[07:09] <Lore1> hey does anyone know if the 64bit version of 7.10 allows backwards compatibility with 32bit apps?
[07:09] <brandon_> in winecfg
[07:09] <brandon_> well I made it so small on acident that I can't change it back in winecfg how do I change it now? is there a way in the terminal?
[07:10] <cool> brandon_, till date i never felt a need for wine, so never installed it, btw why you wanna use wine?
[07:10] <Ramphis> cool
[07:10] <Ramphis> im back
[07:10] <fragile> any luck Ramphis?
[07:10] <joshua__> so how can i find a pastebin from earlier today without the url?
[07:10] <Ramphis> but i failed copying one of yours command
[07:10] <sauvin> What "wine box"?
[07:10] <Ramphis> fragile, anyways lol xD
[07:10] <Ramphis> hmmm... dont understand a thing!
[07:10] <Ramphis> but i got the codes for u
[07:10] <brandon_> for windows games it doesn't run to bad and to install things that are zip files
[07:10] <cool> joshua__, read the topic, there is link in it
[07:11] <Lore1> hey does anyone know if the 64bit version of 7.10 allows backwards compatibility with 32bit apps?
[07:11] <cool> joshua__, /topic
[07:11]  * sauvin never uses windows for things in zip files
[07:11] <Ramphis> cool
[07:11] <brandon_> I made the wine box so small that now I can't change it in wine cfg how do I fix this problem?
[07:11] <cool> Ramphis, hello :p
[07:11] <Ramphis> want me to paste everything on a private conv?
[07:11] <sauvin> What are you calling the "wine box"?
[07:11] <fragile> paste it to pastebin. look at topic and paste the URI afterwards
[07:12] <SoundChaser> !pastebin

[07:12] <fragile> and whoever was asking, 64bit is backwards compatible
[07:12] <brandon_> I made the wine box so small that now I can't change it in wine cfg how do I fix this problem?
[07:12] <joshua__> You guys are gonna love this starting at line 51 this is what is happening after i ctrl-x http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45889/
[07:13] <cool> Ramphis, that would decrased your chances of your query  getting solved as only i can see it :)
[07:13] <cool> Ramphis, post in pastbin

[07:15] <danikar> 1
[07:15] <fragile> did you close visudo correctly joshua__?
[07:15] <Lore1> how well does the 64 bit version of ubuntu handle 32 bit version's of stuff like. I really don't wanna mess around with trying to get my flash player working again.
[07:15] <Ramphis> look
[07:15] <Ramphis> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45890/
[07:16] <whyameye> Lore1: I run 64 bit Gutsy and 32 bit apps work with no problems.
[07:16] <PirateAleks> I can confirm that :)
[07:16] <fragile> everything looks good there Ramphis.. did you not get your /etc/resolv.conf ?
[07:16] <JNowka> brandon_
[07:16] <joshua__> fragile:  I hit ctrl x answered yes to save, it wanted to save file as sudoers.tmp i deleted the .temp it warned me that i was going to overwrite i answered yes that was the output
[07:16] <Ramphis> i missed that part
[07:16] <cool> Ramphis, whats your connection type?, DSL?
[07:16] <Ramphis> xD i told u dude :P
[07:16] <Ramphis> DSL
[07:16] <Ramphis> Speedtouch DSL
[07:17] <marino_> ciao
[07:17] <brandon_> jnowka: ya
[07:17] <SoundChaser> laterz all
[07:17] <fragile> joshua__: ps -C visudo
[07:17] <JNowka> brandon_:you were having trouble with your winecfg virtual destop size right?
[07:17] <joshua__> fragile:  type that now?
[07:17] <fragile> yeah
[07:18] <Ramphis> cool what u see in the code?
[07:18] <fragile> it'll give one of two responses.. one letting you know visudo is still running for some reason and give you the PID or a blank line meaning it closed fine etc
[07:18] <joshua__> What now? ps -C visudo
[07:18] <joshua__> Options are:
[07:18] <joshua__>   (e)dit sudoers file again
[07:18] <joshua__>   e(x)it without saving changes to sudoers file
[07:18] <joshua__>   (Q)uit and save changes to sudoers file (DANGER!)
[07:18] <joshua__> What now?
[07:18] <JNowka> brandon_: goto ~/.wine/
[07:18] <cool> Ramphis, its fine,
[07:18] <fragile> OH hit Q lol sorry joshua__
[07:19] <Ramphis> lol the code is fine, my ethernet is not at all hahahahha
[07:19] <joshua__> fragile:  oh kay
[07:19] <ari_stress> hello guys, can we download the *.deb files manually? from where?
[07:19] <fragile> I didn't read it was asking what now. I thought you couldn't edit it and it that was you asking what now at the end.
[07:19] <whabo> WHy does ubuntu feeel MUCH slower on my laptop than PCLinuxOS???? i mean it takes me 3 minutes just to boot up ubuntu... HELP
[07:19] <cool> Ramphis, post your etc/resolve.config
[07:19] <Ramphis> ok
[07:19] <joshua__> fragile:  It said sudoers file unchanged
[07:19] <Ramphis> brb
[07:19] <JNowka> brandon_: now "cp user.reg user.bak"
[07:19] <ari_stress> whabo: use ubuntu 7.10, it's much faster
[07:19] <Ramphis> the command is: cat etc/resolve.config, right?
[07:20] <joshua__> this sucks
[07:20] <brandon_> cp: cannot stat `user.reg': No such file or directory
[07:20] <cool> Ramphis, yes
[07:20] <Lore1> anyone know a quick way to unmount ntfs volumes without having fstab probs.
[07:20] <Ramphis> ok
[07:20] <fragile> joshua__: I don't think it's your visudo file. it looks fine.
[07:20] <Ramphis> brb
[07:20] <JNowka> brandon_: on the command line type in "cd ~/.wine"
[07:20] <whabo> ari_stress: i am using 7.10 it is slow and boots up in 3 minutes.. i have 1 GIG of ram and a celeron 2.4 GHz
[07:20] <fragile> Lorel, umount -at ntfs
[07:20] <ari_stress> Lore1: umount /mount_point
[07:21] <brandon_> alright
[07:21] <joshua__> thats the error from the terminal though
[07:21] <ari_stress> whabo: really? i was having the same problem, but only with 7.04. the network setting took about 2 minutes
[07:21] <JNowka> now type in "cp user.reg user.bak"
[07:21] <DanikarPN> Iwhabo: d imagine you have something set up wrong if that is the case
[07:21] <PirateAleks> Whabo, are you using the 64-bit version?
[07:21] <ari_stress> whabo: but with 7.10 everything is very fast
[07:21] <brandon_> jnowka ok
[07:21] <JNowka> brandon_: did it copy ok?
[07:22] <joshua__> alright well the insults is in there now so it must have changed
[07:22] <joshua__> I m going to boot into hd
[07:22] <fragile> try the failsafe.
[07:22] <whabo> PirateAleks:  nope im using teh 32 version teh standard one for a desktop
[07:23] <brandon_> ya
[07:23] <Lore1> thank ya fragile
[07:23] <brandon_> jnowka ya
[07:23] <tony__> I'm having problems getting fglrx.  But before I go into it, is there a good reason I should even be trying to switch to it?
[07:23] <whabo> ari_stress: yeah ... it seems that Pc linux Os is aoo much faster ... especially with the 3D and beryl .. compiz effects
[07:23] <JNowka> brandon_: now type in gedit user.reg
[07:23] <whyameye> tony__: 3D accell? compiz?
[07:23] <brandon_> jnowka ok
[07:23] <JNowka> brandon_: did the text editor open up?
[07:23] <brandon_> ya
[07:23] <sauvin> I thought PC Linux OS was an RH derivative.
[07:23] <tony__> I've got it now (I think) under the open (default) ati driver
[07:24] <cool> whabo, when booting press ALT + F1 and see whats stopping ubuntu to boot faster
[07:24] <fragile> tony__: the fglrx drivers gave me problems, personally.. if I ctrl+backspce I would get display corruption every time.. going to tty1-6 gave display corruption etc
[07:24] <fragile> and I've got compiz working great without it.
[07:24] <JNowka> brandon_:does it have wierd text
[07:24] <fragile> but if I had the choice of it working right I'd do it.. but I don't
[07:24] <JNowka> brandon_: or is it empty?
[07:24] <whabo> cool: ok ill do that now ill be back on in 3 minutes lol
[07:24] <brandon_> jnowka I can read it its like this [Control Panel\\Colors]<PHONE_NUMBER>
[07:24] <brandon_> "ActiveBorder"="192 192 192"
[07:24] <brandon_> "ActiveTitle"="0 0 128"
[07:24] <cool> whobo ok lol :p
[07:25] <fragile> could try reprofiling whabo
[07:25] <JNowka> brandon_: perfect
[07:25] <cool> fragile, you missed it again, he left
[07:25] <fragile> I know cool :(
[07:25] <brandon_> jnowka what would it be under?
[07:25] <JNowka> brandon_: now use the find feature to search for "[Software\\Wine\\X11 Driver]"
[07:25] <ari_stress> is there any web for deb files like www.rpmfind.net?
[07:25] <JNowka> brandon_: does it find it?
[07:26] <brandon_> ya
[07:26] <cool> ari_stress, getdeb
[07:26] <tony__> my compiz seems to be working fine now, it just seems...slow compared to winxp (I just switched over).  Some screen drawing and especially flash (swf) stuff is pretty darn sluggish.
[07:26] <brandon_> lol it was at the very bottom
[07:26] <fragile> ari_stress: why not just use synaptic
[07:26] <fragile> yeah flash stuff is really slow tony__.. that's my biggest complaint. browsing the net is a pain :-/
[07:26] <xaut> hello
[07:26] <_nix_> hello everybody.. what if I have two deb packages of the same software, one only a higher version, what would dpkg +i <deb> give me? the higher version?
[07:26] <brandon_> jnowka I got it thanks man
[07:26] <ari_stress> fragile: because my friend doesn't have fast internet access
[07:26] <tony__> ah, so it's not just a configuration thing, eh?  :(
[07:27] <JNowka> brandon_: so you changed the screen size?
[07:27] <joshua__> well guys it worked!
[07:27] <_nix_> * *.deb I mean
[07:27] <brandon_> ya
[07:27] <brandon_> jnowka thanks
[07:27] <fragile> tony__: I wish it were. I would just copy my /etc/X11/xorg.conf and then install fglrx et al and hope for the best... if all else fails you have a backup
[07:27] <krim> tony__: I had the same problem when I used a radeon 9800 card, fortunately I have an integrated intel card now and everything works sweet (not that it helps you but I feel your pain)
[07:28] <joshua__> fragile,  everyone ty
[07:28] <fragile> yeah I've got a 9600 in this laptop and I shortly decided afterwards to stay away from ATI
[07:28] <fragile> glad you got it working joshua__
[07:28] <tony__> yep, tried it, but right as x starts the screen goes blank -- as if my monitor loses input.  Radeon 9500.  I got back and switch my xorg.conf file back and all is well.  (shrug)
[07:28] <cool> ari_stress, but downloading via getdeb will result in dependency hell, better use aptoncd
[07:29] <fragile> did you try ctrl++ .. could have just been something simple like resolution problem
[07:29] <joshua__> quicvk question I deleted my desktop switcher how can i get it back?
[07:29] <krim> fragile: ATI will probably be better in the future since they have released specs now but yeah, they were pretty bad before that (and will be for some time until the new drivers are good enough)
[07:29] <PirateAleks> My CD drive keeps beeping while it's inside my laptop.  It works, but it's annoying having to have my cd-drive open just so I don't have to hear the beeps -_-
[07:29] <tony__> no I didn't.   I didn't know about that
[07:29] <sauvin> by that time I'll have a different laptop :]\
[07:29] <fragile> yeah I agree krim, I hope for the best because they make good hardware just drivers are lame :(
[07:29] <tony__> What does ctrl ++ do
[07:30] <fragile> tony__: changes your resolution
[07:30] <fragile> ctrl+numpad+
[07:30] <DanikarPN> If I install KDE is it easy to switch back and forth?
[07:30] <tony__> does it go up or down
[07:30] <cool> fragile, in firefox?
[07:30] <sauvin> DanikarPN, yes.
[07:30] <tomd> PirateAleks: open up the laptop and disconnect the speaker :-x
[07:30] <fragile> yes DanikarPN, you change your session at login
[07:30] <DanikarPN> Do you just choose it on the log in screen?
[07:30] <DanikarPN> Cool
[07:30] <fragile> what in firefox cool?
[07:30] <xaut> :)
[07:30] <PirateAleks> tomd, the beeps are internal.
[07:31] <cool> fragile, ctrl ++ just what?
[07:31] <tony__> shouldn't there be a configuration file somewhere that tells me what res x is going to startup at?  I know exactly what I need.
[07:31] <tomd> PirateAleks, to the drive, or to the laptops internal speaker
[07:31] <fragile> changes resolution, cool.
[07:31] <DanikarPN> What the easiest installation method? sudo apt-get install kde?
[07:31] <tomd> PirateAleks, because, you could probably just disconnect your internal speaker.. im thinking about doing it
[07:31] <_nix_> DanikarPN: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[07:31] <cool> fragile, perhaps a better term would be ZOOM :p
[07:31] <krim> DanikarPN: I've read that aptitude is preferred.
[07:31] <DanikarPN> _nix_ thanks
[07:31] <_nix_> I guess
[07:32] <PirateAleks> tomd, maybe I should elaborate.  It isn't just beeping.  It also checks if there is a cd inside, causing clicking every three seconds.
[07:32] <fragile> what??
[07:32] <fragile> guess I'm just old school. I know in the XFree86 packages (yes, old school) ctrl++ would change resolutions, as would ctrl+-
[07:32] <xaut> disconnect the IDE wire of the cd-rom :0
[07:33] <PirateAleks> xault, I'd rather not do that, lol.
[07:33] <tony__> I just tried ctrl ++ (from the numpad) and it just changed my font size.  Does this have to be at the login screen?
[07:33] <fragile> it may not be the same keypress any more tony__ sorry
[07:33] <fragile> I haven't used that in years and it doesn't seem to do anything here either.
[07:34] <xaut> destroy the beep ......
[07:34] <fragile> maybe it was ctrl+alt++
[07:34] <cool> fragile, old school then try "sudo rm -rf /" :p
[07:34] <fragile> k brb while I do that cool ;)
[07:34] <PirateAleks> xault, I can't.
[07:35] <tony__> tsokay.  So does anyone know where fglrx gets its res from?
[07:35] <tomd> PirateAleks, does the drive do this when you aren't logged in to a desktop environment
[07:35] <xaut> change another cd-rom...
[07:35] <fragile> I actually want to do that one day just to see what happens.. would everything die automatically or what
[07:35] <fragile> I should have done it while getting rid of gentoo just for overkill
[07:35] <PirateAleks> tomd, the drive starts doing this the moment ubuntu loads.  So a little before the login screen.  It does not do this for another operating system.
[07:36] <cool> fragile, so tried ?
[07:36] <cool> :p
[07:36] <tomd> PirateAleks, so is this before the login screen is displayed, or after
[07:36] <tomd> PirateAleks, run dmesg
[07:36] <xaut> disable the beep, i think it can be turn off in the bios option,
[07:36] <tony__> I just typed sudo rm -rf / and it's asking me for my password.  Should I enter it in?  Will that fix my fglrx problem?
[07:36] <ntbnnt> i cannot get my ipw3945 card to turn on, restricted drivers are installed however i cannot use my card
[07:36] <tomd> PirateAleks, from the console and grep for your cdrom device
[07:36] <whabo> cool: nothing seems to halt  it down.... ANy suggestions?? i mean how to i check for my ubuntu version if its 64 bit or 32 bit?
[07:37] <fragile> tony__: don't do that
[07:37] <cool> whobo uname -r
[07:37] <tony__> heeelllppp it's dyyiinnggg
[07:37] <weltschmerz> pulseaudio gives me a connection refused error. anyone?
[07:37] <fragile> tony__: rm -rf / will remove files recursively and forcefully from /
[07:37] <fragile> lol
[07:37] <cool> hehe
[07:37] <cool> lol
[07:37] <cool> rofl
[07:37] <cool> haha
[07:37] <whabo> cool: i type uname -r in teh terminal?
[07:38] <cool> yes
[07:38] <whabo> cool: thx
[07:38] <PirateAleks> say tomd, a lot of "device lookup failed"s.
[07:38] <tony__> hah yeah I only know not to type that in because I've seen it on t-shirts and license plates.  :)
[07:38] <cool> tony__, why you did that?, it was for fragile :p
[07:38] <fragile> lol
[07:38] <cool> hehe
[07:38] <whabo> 2.6.22-14-generic
[07:38] <whabo> <<<<<< thats why i get cool...
[07:38] <fragile> I finally got my custom place "su root"
[07:39] <Cryx> Anyone using Cisco vpnclient for linux here? I have it on my system and i have huge problems with timeout part of the configuration file. If i change it with nano, it just ignores the changes on next vpnclient connect
[07:39] <fragile> everything else was taken basically :(
[07:39] <cool> whobo thats a 32bit version
[07:39] <tomd> PirateAleks, paste me a chunk of that dmesg output in /msg
[07:40] <fragile> yeah whabo, that's the default kernel basically
[07:40] <ntbnnt> does anyone know if drivers for the ipw3945 are broken in the 64-bit edition of 7.10
[07:40] <whabo> cool: aight 1 more question .. i deleted my PclinuxOs partition and rezide my ubuntu partition using Pclinuxos live Cd but it still tells me in using 30GIG out of my harddrive any suggestions?
[07:40] <jscinoz> Hey guys, how can i have a manually configured mouse in xorg.conf that is somehow set as option, i.e. X will still start with the mouse unplugged?
[07:40] <whabo> resized
[07:41] <simion314> Hi, where apt saves packages downloaded from the internet?
[07:41] <fragile> /var/cache/apt/archives simion314
[07:42] <cool> whabo, why did you use other distro's installer ?, you could have used Gparted live cd
[07:42] <bboymc> hi
[07:42] <fragile> k work tomorrow morning.. going to sleep.
[07:42] <cool> simion314, do you need to backup all packages ?
[07:42] <whabo> cool: i have Gparted live CD but i didnt know what to type lol .... i figured it was easier to use teh live Cd with the Kparted i think partitioner
[07:43] <nox-Hand> !upgrade
[07:43] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[07:43] <simion314> yes

[07:45] <simion314> cool:thx, i have a small internet speed so i want to save some packages on other partition
[07:45] <jscinoz> Frogzoo, i've alreayd set up my mouse, that doesnt answer any of my questions...
[07:45] <whabo> cool: :) oww nice.. any suggestions tho to let use my entire harddrive instead of 30% of its capacity?
[07:46] <cool> simion314, then aptoncd is good has is saves all packes in a iso format, which can also be burned onto a CD/DVD :)
[07:46] <jscinoz> I need to have a manually configured evdev mouse (in xorg.conf) configured in such a way that X will still start if the device is missing, is there specific option line that can flag an InputDevice optional?
[07:46] <cool> whabo, please say again :0
[07:47] <cool> i didn't get you
[07:48] <Frogzoo> jscinoz: use a usb mouse?
[07:49] <jscinoz> Frogzoo, it is a usb mouse, howver it requires the evdev driver to work correctly, and if X is started with the mouse configured but not plugged in, it fails

[07:57] <Tidus> yes
[07:57] <xeer> how do i go about installing ubuntu through a terminal? i'm pretty much wanting to install ubuntu from ubuntu onto a different drive
[07:57] <Ramphis> c ya later :D and thanks Flannel
[07:57] <whabo> tidus: thx
[07:57] <Tidus> that'll tell you how to use resize2fs to 'grow' your 30gb filesystem to fill the rest of the partition
[07:58] <whabo> tidus: aight alot of words .. lol 1 sec .. thx aloot im reading it
[07:59] <lemons> Uh hey, I need help or something.
[07:59] <xeer> anyone? is there a simple method to install ubuntu onto a different disk, through ubuntu itself?
[07:59] <Flannel> xeer: Youre moving your current install to a different drive?
[07:59] <xeer> not moving, creating a new one. this one is screwed up and i'd like to install it on a new disk
[08:00] <Tidus> xeer: just simply pop the cd in and install it to the new disk...
[08:00] <xeer> i'd like to do it through a terminal.. and not have to burn a disk and reboot
[08:00] <Flannel> !install | xeer

[08:02] <Nectarine> hmm neat tutorial on installing w/o a cd
[08:03]  * cool is back
[08:04] <Radi01> run.
[08:05] <lemons> uh. So. Yeah. My laptop has been overheating (100C) a lot ever since I got ubuntu.
[08:06] <Radi01> thats hot
[08:06] <lemons> Only since I got ubuntu in fact. It's never overheated before.
[08:06] <Nectarine> yup
[08:06] <lemons> Yeah
[08:06] <brobostigon> hi,good morning
[08:06] <cool> lemons, turn is off before, it fries :p
[08:06] <lemons> ._. It's not overheating right at this moment
[08:07] <cool> lemons, so you mean is does not overheat all the time?
[08:07] <Radi01> Sounds like U need a scaling pgm.
[08:08] <cool> lemons, you can use CPU as water heater, boiling of water 100 C :p
[08:08] <lemons> Uh. It doesn't just start overheating as soon as it is on. Usually after a few hours of use it will start in the 80s or 90s
[08:08] <xeer> is there no way to create a new partition and apt-get the entire distro to the new location?
[08:08] <cool> lemons, 80C is also higher side
[08:08] <Radi01> Fan speed problem?
[08:08] <lemons> Oh, but youtube videos for some reason make it heat up REALLY fast
[08:08] <lemons> Yeah, I realize this.
[08:08] <lemons> But 100C is insane
[08:09] <Nectarine> yeah that's like cooking temp
[08:09] <mavi-> my acer got up to 93C after ~40 min
[08:09] <Radi01> I panic @ 60c
[08:09] <mavi-> was disk access and graphics that made it go mostly
[08:09] <lemons> Yeah, it's at 62C. right now.
[08:09] <cool> Radi01, perscott's runs at temps :O
[08:09] <lemons> But I've been told that's normal for AMD or whatever.
[08:09] <mavi-> lemons: what kind of laptop is it?
[08:10] <cool> water boiler
[08:10] <Flannel> xeer: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromKnoppix
[08:10] <cool> :p
[08:10] <Radi01> loo
[08:10] <lemons>  HP Pavilion Laptop DV2000
[08:10] <darkmatter> lemons: you really should cap the bios to shut it down at ~80 C, letting it run that hot will eventually case big problems
[08:10] <mavi-> i had to get an external keyboard after burning my wrists =P
[08:10] <mavi-> lemons: get a fan plate if you are using it mostly at home, and turn off compiz when you arent
[08:10] <lemons> uh... okay. But that's not going to help me really... I wanna make it so it like.. doesn't do that
[08:10] <mavi-> opengl = heat
[08:10] <Lore1> ok, say I have a second hard drive and I want to install gutsy gibbon, i have the iso, but I don't wanna burn it. It's mounted, but I can't seem to get the installer started. How should I go about gettin it done?
[08:11] <sauvin> http://xkcd.com/349/
[08:11] <mavi-> you can also turn off the trackers disk tracking
[08:11] <cool> lemons, you gotta a serious HARDWARE issue, better check up first
[08:11] <mavi-> disk access is also heat
[08:11] <mavi-> and blow clean your fans
[08:11] <Flannel> Lore1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux or a few other methods here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[08:11] <mavi-> that makes alot
[08:11] <lemons> ... do what now?
[08:11] <Lore1> /name Lore1 Lor
[08:11] <mavi-> lemons:
[08:12] <lemons> yes?
[08:12] <mavi-> lemons: clean out your fans as step one
[08:12] <lemons> okay.
[08:12] <mavi-> that usally makes 10-20C if they are clogged
[08:12] <mavi-> then turn off compiz, 3d-graphics = heat
[08:12] <cool> lemons, i beilave its hardware issue, as no software can make a CPU overheat :)
[08:12] <lemons> compiz? whats that? and how?
[08:12] <Frogzoo> gutsy seems to run a lot cooler than feisty...
[08:12] <peacepipejv> anybody know of any voip w/ free pc to phone? I tried media ring via wine, too buggy
[08:13] <warlock_handler> hi guys
[08:13] <mavi-> lemons: compiz are ubuntus 3d effects desktop
[08:13] <cool> mavi-, they are just temp solutions AKAIK
[08:13] <warlock_handler> i have some problem in my /dev/hda3
[08:13] <mavi-> cool: yeah, solutions for using broken hardware
[08:13] <warlock_handler> and i wanted to chk what data is on it...
[08:13] <lemons> I don't think it's a hardware issue, as I never once had my laptop overheat with XP. Not even once. Or heat up my entire room for that matter...
[08:13] <Frogzoo> peacepipejv: skype/ekiga
[08:13] <warlock_handler> how do i do this??
[08:13] <Tidus> i would attempt to clean out your fans.
[08:14] <peacepipejv> Frogzoo: pc to phone isnt free though, i thought
[08:14] <lemons> Ah, yeah. I did turn that off already.
[08:14] <Tidus> my dell inspiron 5100 had a clogged heatsink and it would overheat just idling
[08:14] <cool> !mount | warfaren
[08:14] <ubotu> warfaren: Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[08:14] <mavi-> lemons: you can right click the panel and add the CPU speed meter
[08:14] <Tidus> now, i can sit here playin games all day and it never gets hot
[08:14] <mavi-> lemons: then you see if your CPU drops down to lower mhz when it isnt in use
[08:14] <peacepipejv> Frogzoo: am i mistaken?
[08:14] <mavi-> lemons: if it doesnt then your speed step isnt working, that would make some extra heat to
[08:15] <Lore1> Flannel: Thanks
[08:15] <lemons> right click which panel?
[08:15] <mavi-> the one with the main menu
[08:15] <mavi-> at top
[08:15] <Tidus> <for information, the dell i5100 uses a desktop p4 chip, so if it has no fans running, or its clogged, it heats up FAST>
[08:15] <mavi-> chose "add to panel"
[08:16] <mavi-> lemons: then search for CPU and you find it
[08:16] <Frogzoo> peacepipejv: to connect to the phone network, you'll need a voip service provider, or to run asterisk as a voice gateway
[08:17] <peacepipejv> Frogzoo: oh, ok
[08:17] <lemons> alright.
[08:17] <lemons> If it drops during idle what does that tell me?
[08:17] <warfaren> <3 nick completion
[08:18] <Tidus> lemons: if your cpu speed drops at idle then your speedstep is working
[08:18] <lemons> Speedstep... mmhmm
[08:18] <mavi-> lemons: if it doesnt, we have found a possible heat source =)
[08:19] <mavi-> gotta go to work, bb in 30 min =)
[08:19] <Tidus> mavi-: to be honest with his, i think his fans aren't wanting to work.
[08:19] <lemons> It's at 800MHz right now and I don't see it really fluctuating...
[08:19] <inversekinetix> WTH  why does my cpu usage keep jumpin to 50% when there is only xchat and firefox open?
[08:19] <mavi-> lemons: is it a 800mhz laptop?
[08:19] <lemons> It's at a solid 800.
[08:19] <lemons> Uh... I dunno.
[08:19] <lemons> >_>
[08:19] <Tidus> i have a dell i5100 that uses a desktop p4 chip (no speedstep) and it doesn't warm up at all
 can i use gparted to identify which blocks in my /dev/hda3 are corrupted
[08:19] <Tidus> mavi-: all intel dual cores will drop to 800 at idle
[08:19] <lemons> Ah.
[08:20] <mavi-> ah okthen
[08:20] <mavi-> lemons: listen to your fans, are they running?
[08:20] <Tidus> lemons: try doing something that pegs the CPU
[08:20] <warlock_handler> can i use gparted to identify which blocks in my /dev/hda3 are corrupted
[08:20] <inversekinetix> anyone have any idea why my cpu usage would keep up at around 50%
[08:20] <Tidus> inversekinetix: on gutsy?
[08:20] <inversekinetix> Tidus: yes
[08:21] <Tidus> inversekinetix: is the 3d desktop effects active?
[08:21] <inversekinetix> Tidus: yes
[08:21] <Tidus> underpowered video card
[08:21] <lemons> Pegs the CPU? hm-wha?
[08:21] <Tidus> lemons: do something that requires a LOT of cpu time
[08:21] <lemons> uhh
[08:21] <inversekinetix> Tidus: q6660@3Ghz 8800GTS 640MB
[08:21] <cool> warlock_handler, to mount partitions use "sudo mount -t <fs type> /dev/hdx <mount point>
[08:21] <lemons> Well I am listening to music right now and it doesn't seem to be effecting it.
[08:21] <brobostigon> compile llemons
[08:21] <warlock_handler> my /tmp is mounted on my /dev/hda3 ... now in my /dev/hda3 there are bad sectors.. can i unmount the /tmp and delete this partition??
[08:21] <lemons> Like it is JUST 800.
[08:22] <Radi01> He said utube made it heat up.
[08:22] <Tidus> inversekinetix: hm... maybe the nvidia drivers aren't loaded?
 my /tmp is mounted on my /dev/hda3 ... now in my /dev/hda3 there are bad sectors.. can i unmount the /tmp and delete this partition??
[08:22] <Tidus> and it's trying to use software rendering?
[08:22] <cool> warfaren,yes , use umount command
[08:22] <lemons> Erp, wait, I just refreshed my firefox and it jumped up to 2GHz, then 1.6, then 1.8 and now back to 800MHz
[08:22] <inversekinetix> Tidus: nvidia is loaded, I get the splash screen just befdore ubuntu login screen
 can i delete that partition and mark it unusable???
[08:22] <Tidus> lemons: ok, so speedstep is working
[08:23] <Tidus> inversekinetix: open a terminal and run 'top'
[08:23] <Tidus> that'll tell you what's chewing up the cpu
[08:23] <cool> warlock_handler, yes and also remove its entry from /etc/fstab
[08:23] <lemons> uhh
[08:24] <lemons> how do I read this thing?
[08:24] <cool> warlock_handler, but then you need to mount /tmp elsewhere
[08:24] <cool> warfaren, on any other free partion
[08:24] <Tidus> cool: if he fails to remount /tmp, it'll just use the same partition that "/" is on
 yo dude can i PM you??
[08:25] <cool> Tidus, thanks for telling, i didn't knew that
[08:25] <cool> Tidus, do keep pointout in future too :)
[08:25] <cool> warlock_handler, ya sure!
[08:25] <tarelerulz> I am lost I can't seem to get my wireless card working ,but it don't work on webpages . Now my cable is action the same  irc work and synaptic  ,but not web pages don't work
[08:26] <inversekinetix> ah ha, found it
[08:26] <inversekinetix> Tidus thanks
[08:27] <Tidus> inversekinetix: what was chewing it up?

[08:29] <Tidus> cool: i've got him on PM.
[08:29] <Radi01> loo
[08:29] <Tidus> inversekinetix: you're not talking in english...
[08:29] <DanikarPN> Read it upside down and backwords
[08:29] <NineTeen67Comet> LNE100TX [Linksys EtherFast 10/100] (rev 25) is my PCI card. It's been a trooper with previous installs of Ununtu Server but Gutsy seems to have it out for me ..  I'm pretty handy w/CLI anyhow ..
[08:32] <lemons> So when I refresh on firefox it'll hit up around 20%.
[08:32]  * NineTeen67Comet <tab> makes a man lazy ..
[08:32] <lemons> Just sitting tight it's at 1.
[08:32] <DanikarPN> Yeah, at work I work on RHEL with CLI but at home I use Ubuntu.  And at work I do after the fact stuff, not set up =(.
[08:32] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: i think you'll have to temporarily hook up a head so you'll have access to a terminal
[08:32]  * cool says <tab> makes typing wierd nick easy, NineTeen67Comet
[08:33] <lemons> Also what is Xorg? It's taking up between 10 and 15 percent mem.
[08:33] <lemons> <_<
[08:33] <NineTeen67Comet> Tidus: I did that for a day and a half, then decided it was going to be good and put it all back .. I can ssh in for a few minutes after I hard shutdown (hello power button, how long do I have to hold you in before I KEEEL YOU!) ..
[08:33] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: ok... failing network card?
[08:33] <Tidus> mis-compiled kernel module?
[08:34] <Tidus> i keep a spare realtek 8139 (best damn card i've found, i think) around in case one of mine fails
[08:34] <Tidus> that particular card's been thru about at least 8 machines already
[08:34] <NineTeen67Comet> Tidus: Yeah . No errors in the messages log, and it doesn't error out when it drops. It just "stops". Usually the only way I know it dropped is cuz my term locks up when ssh'ed in .. I'll drag one of my monitors over and hook it up though, this is driving me nuts. (I run dual monitors, so I feel all cut in half when I donate one to my server)..
[08:35] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: lol... my primary linux tinkertoy is a laptop
[08:36] <ibanez> mine too
[08:36]  * NineTeen67Comet hugs is lesser monitor farewell for the night .. and envokes nvidia-settings with a smile ..
[08:36] <NineTeen67Comet> All my boxes are *nix .. (even my MacBook Pro is MOSTLY *nix)
[08:36] <DanikarPN> Hey what is Roaming mode?  I disabled it and switched to DHCP because it seemed to make internets slower.
[08:36]  * NineTeen67Comet tinkering w/the cables
[08:37] <Tidus> roaming mode attempts to emulate the user-friendly wlan / wired automatic switch of mac osx
[08:37] <jl> p
[08:37] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: LOL ... my amd64 3500 runs OSX
[08:37] <Tidus> and this p4 dell laptop is getting nix put on it
[08:38] <ibanez> what kind of wireless card ?
[08:38] <Tidus> ibanez: mine?
[08:38] <ibanez> yes
[08:38] <ibanez> for the dell
[08:38] <Tidus> linksys WPC54GS (broadcom 43xx chipset, requires ndiswrapper)
[08:38] <NineTeen67Comet> Tidus: I really like Mac OSX but it jerks my chain they use so much open software but NOT enough to allow you to fire it up w/out breaking laws .. who needs laws anyhow .. lol
[08:38] <Tidus> lol...
[08:39] <ibanez> man
[08:39] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: i just installed it on that amd64 to play around with it.
[08:39] <ibanez> i installed mine today Tidus with bcm43xx
[08:39] <ibanez> only had to do firmware
[08:39] <ibanez> no ndiswrapper
[08:39] <ibanez> Linux avenged 2.6.20-16-generic #2 SMP Sun Sep 23 19:50:39 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[08:39] <ibanez>  03:39:24 up  9:59,  1 user,  load average: 0.65, 0.36, 0.39
[08:39] <Tidus> i couldn't find the firmware, so i just take the easy route and ndiswrapper it
[08:39] <ibanez> lol
[08:40] <Tidus> i got the windows drivers for this card on a usb stick, so it's nothin to get ndiswrapper up
[08:40] <ibanez> yeah
[08:41] <ibanez> i downloaded my firmware on my xp box, then moved over with flash
[08:41] <Tidus> think you can upload the firmware file somewhere that i might be able to nab it?
[08:41] <ibanez> with the great help of MasterShrek
[08:41] <ibanez> sure
[08:41] <ibanez> let me grab my stick and put it in
[08:41] <ibanez> hang on one sec mate
[08:41] <Tidus> i hate using ndiswrapper... makes me feel dirty having to use windows pieces of software on nix
[08:42] <Tidus> i mean it works... i just feel weird.
[08:42] <Nyle> ibanez: hi
[08:42]  * NineTeen67Comet sigh .. Monitor hooked up, keyboard hooked up .. booting and .. where to start looking into the dropped network issue? .. /etc/network/interfaces looks good (Static IP), /etc/resolv.conf looks good. sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart produces no errors .. and /var/log/messages has no errors .. help?
[08:42] <Nyle> ibanez: guitarplayer?
[08:42] <Tidus> NineTeen67Comet: tail -f -n 25 /var/log/messages in one terminal

[08:45] <Tidus> ibanez: got an ftp somewhere?
[08:45] <Nyle> thanks budd
[08:45] <NineTeen67Comet> Tidus: I suspect .. I guess I could fire up a live cd (means I'd have to hook up a cd rom) and dink w/it until it failed ..
[08:45] <ibanez> i have no ftp

[08:49] <amadeux> In Gutsy, with compiz enabled, when I receive a message in Pidgin, the pidgin entry in the task panel at the bottom should begin to "flash" to alert me to a new message. But with compiz enabled, it just does a subtle fade in and out from a blueish color. I tend to miss that alert. How can I make it more obvious?
[08:49] <Tidus> ibanez: got it with elinks... thanks man

[08:50] <NineTeen67Comet> Tidus: Looks like it might be looking for IPv6 shtuff .. /var/log/syslog just poped out "Thor kernel: [ 512.670043] eth0: no IPv6 routers present
[08:50] <ibanez> im just glad to be able to give back some help
[08:50] <NineTeen67Comet> but the network is still up
[08:50] <ibanez> or files
[08:50] <ibanez> that were given to me
[08:51] <Tidus> lol... that's the thing i like about the open source community.  share freely
[08:51] <timfrost> TiJay: scribus is in main for gutsy
[08:51] <chazco> Hi... is there a way to skip the filesystem checks that Ubuntu performs on startup? Not always, but on the laptop when showing slideshows etc it can be annoying.
[08:52] <TiJay> timfrost, found it. It says it's for KDE. Will it work with Gnome fine?
[08:52] <TiJay> As far integration wise
[08:52] <Tidus> TiJay: it'll run just fine
[08:52] <xeer> Flannel, thanks for your previous help, but i could not get it to work with your instructions. My goal is to install ubuntu from terminal onto a Raid1 (using dmraid) ext3 partition alongside ntfs
[08:52] <Tidus> and if it uses a KDE system tray icon... it'll show in gnome just fine
[08:52] <dalton> how the last version of ubuntu?
[08:52] <TiJay> IS there any other desktop publishing software for nix?
[08:53] <TiJay> Not neccessary free or opensource. Just looking at the options right now
[08:53] <nathan> hey all
[08:53] <amadeux> Is there a package for ubuntu that will parallelize the startup sequence so as to boot faster? As far as I understand it, the linux boot sequence is sequential whereas Windows' is parallel
[08:53] <gordonjcp> amadeux: no
[08:53] <amadeux> gordonjcp, no what?
[08:54] <gordonjcp> amadeux: no, you can't really parallelise the startup sequence any more than it is
[08:54] <amadeux> ok
[08:54] <FluxD> what is the diff btw those two?
[08:54] <gordonjcp> amadeux: most of the time you spend hanging about is waiting for devices to ready up
[08:54] <cerealkiller> is it possible to run msdos apps in ubuntu
[08:54] <gordonjcp> cerealkiller: dosbox
[08:54] <Tidus> amadeux: some services depend on another service being up, and if you try to parallelize it, chances are you might break it
[08:55] <dalton> how the last version of ubuntu?
[08:55] <Tidus> but most of it's just hanging around waiting on the hardware to initialize
[08:55] <amadeux> Tidus, of course, that is part of parallelization, to get synchronize dependant processes
[08:55] <amadeux> still, as much parallelization as possible is a good thing
[08:56] <amadeux> so this is obsolete, or what? http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-boot.html
[08:56] <chevtron> dalton - latest version is 7.10

[08:57] <CyberMad> how to lock panel from remove / changing?
[08:57] <psanxiao> Hi all!
[08:57] <CyberMad> someone on xubuntu, told me to set chmod on this: panel.xml
[08:58] <CyberMad> chmod -w ~/.config/xfce4/panel/panel.xml
[08:58] <mesasina> lonely_guy
[08:58] <nathan> indeed
[08:58] <CyberMad> but because ubuntu use gnome.. i don't know where is panel.xml in ubuntu. so where is it?
[08:58] <dalton> chevtron https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
[08:58] <psanxiao> Is there a specific tool to build a debian package for ubuntu?
[08:58] <FluxD> !dpkg
[08:58] <ubotu> dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[08:58] <nathan> psanxiao snyaptic
[08:59] <g1gaman_> gentlemen, how can i fix apt by reinstalling if it gives me this error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45895/
[08:59] <psanxiao> thanks
[08:59] <madera> Hello
[08:59] <madera> What is ubuntu's rc-update equivalent? (from Gentoo)
[08:59] <psanxiao> nathan: synaptic to build deb packages??
[09:00] <FluxD> !dpkg | psanxiao
[09:00] <ubotu> psanxiao: dpkg is the Debian package maintenance system, which together with apt forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit.
[09:00] <alimoe> hey all
[09:00] <nathan> ubotu is correct for build
[09:00] <gambix> this is a dud ask...
[09:00] <timfrost> madera: update-rc.d
[09:00] <alimoe> i have a wireless modem how do i set it up and start using it?
[09:01] <gambix> how do you write a date in american format
[09:01] <TiJay> Is there such package as freetype?
[09:01] <gambix> in log format ?
[09:01] <madera> Like: rc-update add myservice default
[09:01] <gambix> inlong format
[09:01] <madera> How's that in Ubuntu?
[09:01] <nathan> alimoe what type of modem? Have you looke at ndswrapper?
[09:01] <jscinoz> When i press my search keybind for deskbar, it opens in a window rather than the normal bubble-off-systray appearance, how can i fix this?
[09:01] <timfrost> gambix: month-day-year
[09:01] <alimoe> nathan: its called ipwireless
[09:02] <psanxiao> dpkg to build a debian package from binary files too?
[09:02] <gordonjcp> amadeux: have a look at that IBM article, and have a look at the date on it...
[09:02] <gambix> timfrost: not i know that
[09:02] <amadeux> gordonjcp, I know, that's why I asked if it was obsolete
[09:02] <alimoe> nathan, ndswrapper??? im new ubuntu user!
[09:02] <gambix> timbut with friday 6 december 2007
[09:02] <gambix> timfrost: but with friday 6 december 2007
[09:02] <Asusu> hello. I've read somewhere there's an to build a debian pkg from a .bin called make-pkg (or something like that), but can't seem to find it in ubuntu. Do I have to install any specific package?
[09:03] <nathan> alimoe good to know.. Sure as hell don't say I know everything ;)
[09:03] <Tidus> alimoe: system -> Administration -> Windows Wireless Drivers ... that's what he's talking about when he says ndiswrapper
[09:03] <Excelsior> Which operating system should I use? BSD or Solaris?
[09:03] <alimoe> nathan: d:)
[09:03] <stdin> !ot | Excelsior
[09:03] <ubotu> Excelsior: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:03] <alimoe> tidus, yhnx
[09:03] <gordonjcp> amadeux: Linux has come a long way in four years
[09:04] <Excelsior> gordonjcp: No it hasn't. Not really.
[09:04] <Excelsior> Bye all
[09:04] <sakhi> he had to run
[09:04]  * gordonjcp wonders why people like Excelsior bother
[09:04] <capiira> anyone know a font browser to browse uninstalled fonts and type own sentence as text sample ?
[09:04] <gordonjcp> "Which should I use, BSD or Solaris?"
[09:04] <gordonjcp> ffs
[09:04] <gordonjcp> *neither*
[09:05] <gordonjcp> the one true OS is obviously VMS
[09:05] <g1gaman_> could you help me reinstall apt? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45895/
[09:05] <TiJay> Is there libsdl in ubuntu?
[09:05] <gordonjcp> TiJay: yes
[09:05] <amadeux> gordonjcp, I know. that's a generic answer. That doesn't answer whether the boot sequence has been parallelized. Truth is, gutsy boots much slower than XP
[09:06] <gordonjcp> amadeux: XP?
[09:06] <Tidus> amadeux: funny... my ubuntu always booted faster than my xp did
[09:06] <TiJay> gordonjcp, E: Couldn't find package libsdl
[09:07] <Asusu> Hello. Is make-dkpg available in Ubuntu? Can't seem to find it. What package do I need to install to run make-dkpg?
[09:07] <Tidus> TiJay: apt-cache search libsdl
[09:07] <gordonjcp> TiJay: apt-cache search libsdl
[09:07] <gordonjcp> TiJay: there are a *lot* of libsdl packages
[09:07] <Tidus> lol... beat ya to it by just a hair
[09:08] <TiJay> I'm trying to install Pixel and it doesn't say which libsdl it needs
[09:08] <timfrost> g1gaman_:  that error indicates that the package file  apt_0.7.6ubuntu14_i386.deb is not a good Ubuntu package.  Where did you get it from, and why are you trying to install it, rather than running 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall apt'?
[09:08] <amadeux> gordonjcp, yep, XP
[09:08] <blackfox> how much ram need for ubuntu 7.10 desktop?
[09:08] <Tidus> blackfox: at least 256mnb
[09:08] <Tidus> mb *
[09:09] <blackfox> ok thank you
[09:09] <gordonjcp> amadeux: is that Windows?
[09:09] <g1gaman_> timfrost: apt doesnt work on that machine due the segmantation fault. synaptic doesnt work also
[09:09] <nathan> 128 is fine if you do an alternate install and use blackbox, flux, ice or xfce
[09:09] <capiira> i think you need to create a symlink TiJay
[09:09] <timfrost> g1gaman_: what ubuntu release are you running?
[09:09] <HoudiniMan>  hi, i'm trying to use tftp to flash dd-wrt to my belkin F5D7231-4. anybody know much about tftp or dd-wrt?
[09:09] <amadeux> gordonjcp, no, it's Solaris XP...
[09:09] <g1gaman_> timfrost: gutsy
[09:09] <Tidus> HoudiniMan: is that firmware even made for that router ?
[09:09] <gordonjcp> amadeux: I don't know anything about Windows, I've never used it
[09:09] <blackfox> blackbox support ubuntu?
[09:10] <HoudiniMan>  they have one listed
[09:10] <Tidus> blackfox: yes, blackbox works fine in ubuntu
[09:10] <TiJay> will deb packinstaller automatically install dependencies?
[09:10] <HoudiniMan>  dd-wrt.v24_micro_generic.bin
[09:10] <amadeux> gordonjcp, but you are not illiterate, are you?
[09:10] <Tidus> HoudiniMan: because lookin at the package name, its name would suggest that it's made for a linksys WRT series router
[09:10] <capiira> TiJay,  see if its installed then do a symlink to the file with the name that pixel is searching for
[09:10] <blackfox> all version support? (blackbox)
[09:10] <gordonjcp> amadeux: no, I've just never really seen any need to look at Windows
[09:10] <TiJay> okay thanks
[09:10] <nathan> I've used black.. In flux right now.. did the CVS install.no worries after update menues
[09:10] <Tidus> !info blackbox

[09:11] <gordonjcp> amadeux: I have a real bought-and-paid-for copy of Windows 3.1 somewhere, but after that I kind of lost interest in it
[09:11] <Tidus> as well as debian-menu which does the menus for you >.>
[09:11] <badraa> help me, how to install   .tar.gz file's?
[09:11] <capiira> TiJay, sometimes ubuntu debian libs are named different as *.so.1 or so then a non repo app can't find it
[09:11] <blackfox> ok thank you Tidus
[09:11] <amadeux> gordonjcp, yeah, but I take it you're able to read. And you might have read or heard about Windows XP...
[09:11] <badraa> help me, how to install   .tar.gz file's?
[09:12] <nathan> badraa are you using gutsy?
[09:12] <g1gaman_> timfrost: i downloaded it here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/base/apt
[09:12] <amadeux> gordonjcp, seems like there _is_ a way to parallelize the gutsy booting process. A little fact is a good thing http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=516690
[09:12] <gordonjcp> amadeux: I've heard of it, I've just never used it
[09:12] <g1gaman_> timfrost: is that a wrong version?
[09:12] <badraa> i use ubuntu 7.10
[09:12] <alimoe> tidus, i didnt see that
[09:12] <gordonjcp> and furthermore, I don't much care about it, since none of the software I use works in Windows
[09:13] <alimoe> help me i want to use my wireless modem
[09:13] <badraa> help me, how to install   .tar.gz file's?
[09:13] <amadeux> gordonjcp, if you've heard about it, why write "XP?". Also, if you have never used it, how do you know that Linux is better for you?
[09:13] <blackfox> now i use ubuntu 6.06
[09:13] <HoudiniMan>  so i think i got this router flashed, tftp told me "sent 1740800 bytes in 18.4 seconds"
[09:13] <alimoe> can anyone help plz, i want to use my wireless modem
[09:13] <HoudiniMan>  anybody use dd-wrt that can help me login the first time?
[09:13] <gordonjcp> amadeux: because as I said, pretty much none of the software I use will work in Windows?
[09:13] <badraa> help me, how to install   .tar.gz file's?
[09:13] <nathan> badraa if you are using the default gnome desktop double click on the file. Extract with the archive manager and no worries from there
[09:13] <amadeux> gordonjcp, seems incredibly narrowminded. I am a software developer and have developed software on more or less every OS known to man
[09:13] <g1gaman_> could you help me reinstall apt? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/45895/
[09:13] <gordonjcp> amadeux: good for you
[09:13] <amadeux> gordonjcp, what software?
[09:13] <gordonjcp> amadeux: various bits of audio software
[09:14] <Lupino> I'm on (K)ubuntu 7.10 and need to upgrade to a newer version of Xgl than that supplied (to avoid a horrible bug, and I can't use aiglx).  How would you suggest I go about doing that, and what problems might it cause?
[09:14] <Tidus> alimoe: didn't see what?
[09:14] <amadeux> gordonjcp, heheh, for audio it's usually the other way around. I find it hard to believe there is audio software for linux that does not work on windows or can be made to work

[09:15] <cHeChA_cE_EmO><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[09:15] <Tidus> alimoe: oh lol
[09:15] <timfrost> g1gaman_: I missed the point about segfault. That package looks like the default for gutsy (I have version 0.7.6ubuntu14.1 on my gutsy desktop).  What did you install that caused the breakage?
[09:15] <carl_> i have the .files .. the filesystem is ok .. and all .. but these three all simutlaneously have corrupt or none settings
[09:16] <gordonjcp> amadeux: maybe it can be made to work in Windows, but then I'd have to learn how to program for Windows, and buy a lot of expensive software, and spend a lot of time porting it across, and stuff like that

[09:27] <lorek> I partitioned /dev/sda into 3 partitions, /sda1 = ext3, sda2 = swap sda3/4 are unformatted at this time. it I only have sda1 checked for format in manual but at the end where it summarizes all the changes made I keep getting 3 hard drives being shown up as going to be formated. :(
[09:27] <lorek> the first one being my primary IDE which I don't want to format.
[09:27] <tarelerulz> I am connected via my lan port and stuff like irc work ,but web pages time out .  Stuff I have in book marks seem to work ,but that is all
[09:28] <Tidus> lorek: unhook it
[09:28] <QDawg> frogzoo: i never ran compiz before this. i just installed it because i found avant
[09:28] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 7.10] What could be the reason for the console message: "Reloading system log daemon" during the startup process?
[09:28] <lorek> ok brb, wish i could hotplug ide drives
[09:28] <Frogzoo> QDawg: the chan for compiz used to be #ubuntu-effects - try there first
[09:29] <QDawg> frogzoo: thanks
[09:29] <Tyroazard> What should I install first if I was going to dual boot XP and Ubuntu on a clean hard drive?
[09:29] <Tyroazard> XP or Ubuntu?
[09:29] <Tidus> Tyroazard: xp
[09:29] <Tyroazard> And what do I do with Grub?
[09:29] <Tyroazard> Is there anything special I need to do there?
[09:29] <Tidus> when you install ubuntu, it'll fix it on its own
[09:29] <bazzieb> has any1 here managed to get 7.10 to authenticate to AD???
[09:29] <Tyroazard> Oh
[09:29] <Frogzoo> Tyroazard: xp first - then ubuntu will setup the boot loader auto
[09:29] <tarelerulz> Could the net just be slow or is there some problem ?  How would I check the setting for my my ethnet port ?
[09:29] <CyberMad> i install ubuntu-server 7.10, then i install gnome with apt-get install gnome   Now, how to start the gnome / xwindow ?
[09:29] <Tyroazard> Okay
[09:29] <Asusu> Hello. What do I have to do to have make-dpkg installed on my ubuntu system?
[09:30] <Tyroazard> *waits for prostreet to finish*
[09:30] <Tyroazard> >.>
[09:30] <Tyroazard> I suppose I don't need that new hard drive, then.
[09:30] <Tyroazard> Thanks
[09:30] <Tidus> CyberMad: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start ?
[09:30] <brobostigon> hi
[09:31] <capiira> CyberMad, if you did everything right then a startx or gdm as Tidus told should do the job
[09:31] <san|> Is there a way how can I set preferences of the volume control applet.. now it changes "Mic Boost" but I want it set to master...
[09:31] <Tyroazard> Oh, is there any way to make my display default at 1440x900?
[09:32] <Tyroazard> I use SysInfo to change it currently
[09:32] <Frogzoo> Tyroazard: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[09:32] <Tidus> Tyroazard: dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[09:32] <bullgard4> Asusu: If you do not know the answer to your question yourself, then you are probably not advanced enough and I would recommend you to install the Synaptic DEB program package. This is much more intuitive to use. Especially for beginners.
[09:32] <capiira> over the xorg.conf in /etc/X11
[09:32] <Tyroazard> I've tried save to config in SysInfo, but it's still 1024x768
[09:32] <QDawg> frogzoo: no one seems to be awake over at #compiz-fusion
[09:32] <bazzieb> has any1 here managed to get 7.10 to authenticate to AD???
[09:32] <capiira> maybe because its night in USA :D
[09:32] <todoM> hi i want to create a launcher on my desktop for a trash but i dont know the command...can anybody help me plz?
[09:33] <Asusu> bullgard4: I have used Synaptic package manager on gnome, done a search for make-dpkg, but no results.
[09:33] <Tyroazard> xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration
[09:33] <Tyroazard>    file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20071126173300
[09:33] <TiJay> Can someone tell me why do my window borders disappear whenever I run QT aware app like Gimp or Scribus?
[09:33] <Asusu> bullgard4: all I know is I type "make-dkpg" in bash and command not found.
[09:33] <Tidus> !info make-dpkg
[09:33] <ubotu> Package make-dpkg does not exist in gutsy
[09:33] <capiira> gimp is not QT
[09:33] <Tyroazard> And then it sits there
[09:33] <QDawg> capiira: i know, i'm from the midwest, but usually there is at least one person awake, like here
[09:33] <Asusu> !info make-dpkg
[09:33] <Karotte> hi
[09:34] <Karotte> I have some HD Videos which only play with mplayer
[09:34] <Karotte> and nautilus ins unable to create thumbnails for them
[09:34] <Karotte> is there a way to somehow use mplayer in nautilus to create the thumbnails?
[09:38] <TiJay> Grr I'm tired of running metacity --replace. My borders keep disappearing
[09:38] <TiJay> Can someone explain why that could happen?
[09:38] <bullgard4> Asusu: ' make-dpkg' is no valid Ubuntu 7.10 command. What do you mean by ' make-dpkg'?
[09:39] <Asusu> bullgard4: I've read on some forum that you can make a debian package from a .bin (such as java installer) to make a debian package.
[09:39] <Frogzoo> Asusu: dpkg-dev I guess
[09:39] <Asusu> bullgard4: I have not updated yet to 7.10
[09:41] <tarelerulz> I can connect with cable  and I get irc and synaptic ,but web pags time out ? How could I learn how to fix that
[09:41] <void^> !info java-package
[09:41] <ubotu> java-package: utility for building Java(TM) 2 related Debian packages. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 0.35 (gutsy), package size 25 kB, installed size 424 kB
[09:41] <void^> (but why bother when the debs are in the repo anyway)
[09:41] <bullgard4> Asusu: So re-read that article and find out how they have made it. They certainly have not made it using an Ubuntu command  make-dpkg because there is none.
[09:41] <Asusu> bullgard4: they didn't go into details as to how to get make-dkpg (asuming you should have that in your system)
[09:42] <rajaie> JOIN #JORDAN
[09:42] <Asusu> Frogzoo: that didn't seem to make it. make-dpkg still unavailable.
[09:42] <rajaie> HI
[09:42] <rajaie> #FREEBSD
[09:42] <rajaie> JOIN /FREEBSD
[09:42] <rajaie> JOIN #FREEBSD
[09:43] <Frogzoo> Asusu: apt-cache search make |grep dpkg   - you get the idea
[09:43] <bullgard4> Asusu: I know that it is possible to make a debian package from a .bin. But I do not know the details how to do it.
[09:44] <cHeChA_cE_EmO> blk
[09:44] <cHeChA_cE_EmO> sotoy lw
[09:44] <cHeChA_cE_EmO> mo ga
[09:44] <Asusu> bullgard4: I've tried to google it too, but no luck
[09:45] <Tidus> !info make_kpkg
[09:45] <ubotu> Package make_kpkg does not exist in gutsy
[09:45] <Tidus> hm...
[09:45] <Asusu> Tidus: what's that?
[09:45] <Tidus> i'm poking around and tryin to figure it out
[09:45] <bryan> hello , does it possible to change owner of files on all users folders under /home ?
[09:45] <Asusu> what does "!info make-dpkg" mean ?
[09:46] <Tidus> Asusu: attempting to use the bot to find info on a package
[09:46] <Tomcat_> Asusu: Try checkinstall, not sure if it can do that.
[09:46] <lorek> wow that was bloody nasty.
[09:46] <bullgard4> Asusu: So my advice would be that you re-word your problem without the 'make-dpkg' and put it here anew in this channel.
[09:47] <Asusu> ok :)
[09:47] <lorek> looks like the migration assistant did something with my mbr on my ide even though I canceled the installation wizard and shutdown correctly.
[09:47] <Asusu> How can I make a package from a .bin file using ubuntu ?
[09:47] <Textboo1> I was wondering if anybody could explain why playing xvid videos uses 100% of my CPU usage in Linux, please?
[09:47] <Tidus> Textboo1: what player are you using, and what version of ubuntu
[09:48] <Tomcat_> Asusu: Try checkinstall. According to the doc, it can do that.
[09:48] <Textboo1> Tidus: Gutsy with VLC
[09:48] <Tidus> Textboo1: ok, do you have the 3d desktop effects enabled ?
[09:48] <bullgard4> [Ubuntu 7.10] What could be the reason for the console message: "Reloading system log daemon" during the startup process?
[09:49] <Textboo1> Tidus: yes
[09:49] <francesco__> Hello!
[09:49] <Tidus> Textboo1: what processor and video card you using?
[09:49] <francesco__> I have to report a bug/
[09:49] <jscinoz> When i press my search key for deskbar it opens in a window instead of the normal bubble-off-systray thing, how can i get this behaviour back?
[09:49] <francesco__> .
[09:49] <MinusSeven> whats the bug francesco__ ?
[09:49] <francesco__> I have problem with Evolution Mail.
[09:49] <Textboo1> Intel Celeron Mobile (laptop) 1.6Ghz x86, Video is ATI Xpress Radeon 200M
[09:49] <francesco__> I can't read the news!
[09:49] <Tidus> Textboo1: that's why it's using 100% ... underpowered video card
[09:50] <Tidus> try turning the 3d desktop effects off
[09:50] <Textboo1> ok
[09:50] <Textboo1> thanks
[09:50] <Zoidfarb> How can I set a shell script to run at startup (as root) before login? I need to launch a daemon.
[09:50] <francesco__> Did you notice this problem before?
[09:50] <Tidus> it gets choppy on my desktop... athlon-64 3500 with a geforce 6600LE
[09:50] <Textboo1> wow
[09:51] <Tidus> i play WoW on linux... disabling the 3d effects doubled my framerate
[09:51] <mwansa> Zoidfarb, a system daemon ? should go in rc.conf in the services array ?
[09:51] <francesco__> I don't know. Maybe, it's a possilble bug. What do you think about that?
[09:51] <Textboo1> ok, going to give it a try and report back
[09:51] <Zoidfarb> I don't know if it's a "system" daemon? It's a DC hub that runs as a background daemon.
[09:52] <Zoidfarb> where is rc.conf?
[09:52] <francesco__> MinusSeven, ?
[09:52] <mwansa> Zoidfarb, /etc/rc.conf
[09:52] <tarelerulz> mplayer is still the best . I use it all the time  and where totem fail it  plays  videos
[09:52] <MinusSeven> Haven't seen that bug
[09:52] <mwansa> tarelerulz, :)
[09:52] <francesco__> Can you read the news with Evolution Mail?
[09:52] <Zoidfarb> mwansa, I don't seem to have that file
[09:53] <Textboo1> Tidus: you're awesome, never even reached 50%
[09:53] <MinusSeven> haven't tried
[09:53] <Tidus> Textboo1: lol np.
[09:53] <Textboo1> thanks again
[09:53] <Tidus> Textboo1: remember, if it looks flashy, or even touches 3d, it's probably gonna kill CPU
[09:53] <mwansa> Zoidfarb, mm sorry i use a different distro so probb wont be able to help much
[09:53] <bryan> can someone plz help me ? i would like to change the owner of all files & folders in the hdd , how can i do that ?
[09:53] <francesco__> I did try, but it seems that Evolution Mail can't read the list of the newsgroups.
[09:53] <mwansa> bryan, chown
[09:54] <tarelerulz> mwansa , What do you think is the best media player for Linux?
[09:54] <Textboo1> now if Flash didn't lock up Firefox every 20 minutes I'd be all set :)
[09:54] <Zoidfarb> VLC is awesome
[09:54] <Frogzoo> bryan: you don't - next question?
[09:54] <mwansa> tarelerulz, mplayer and vlc are both up there. mplayer for me tho :)
[09:54] <Textboo1> I use VLC
[09:54] <aricz> vlc.. \o/
[09:54] <brobostigon> vlc is my choice
[09:54] <lorek> what's vlc?
[09:54] <Tidus> i use xine for dvds, mplayer for all else
[09:54] <Zoidfarb> VLC is a nice lightweight player with tons of features that plays anything
[09:55] <francesco__> I looked for more informations in the internet, and I found out a forum in which a person had the same problem.
[09:55] <brobostigon> lorek !vlc
[09:55] <Tidus> !info vlc | lorek
[09:55] <ubotu> lorek: vlc: multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.6.release.c-0ubuntu5 (gutsy), package size 1134 kB, installed size 3228 kB

[09:55] <Zoidfarb> It also has tons of advanced features nobody ever uses. Has anyone ever used VLC's streaming features?
[09:55] <aricz> Zoidfarb : yups..
[09:55] <lorek> mplayer tends to bug out when I try and play fansubs
[09:55] <bryan> mwansa: can you give me an example how to use the chown command for all files and folders in the hdd ?
[09:55] <Tidus> bryan: why would you want to change the ownership of all files on the HD ?
[09:56] <tarelerulz> I would seen mplayer is the best  ,but it is missing better play list and no repeat in the gui . I like to play songs over and over and short videos
[09:56] <Asusu> Tomcat_: checkinstall seems to be the utility to use. Thanks a lot.
[09:56] <mwansa> bryan, chown [-R] newowner filenames
[09:56] <mwansa> yea ?
[09:56] <lorek> so how would I go about fixing grub up so it'l run off my sata
[09:56] <bryan> Tidus: becouse i copy some files & folders from my old computer and i want to change the owner to my new user account on the new computer
[09:57] <mely> Hey, I'm trying to use the desktop cube and it's not working.
[09:57] <mely> Help me!
[09:57] <mely> I've got Gusty Gibbons.
[09:57] <Daisuke_Ido> okay, i just went from kde back to gnome, and i'm looking for an equivalent to kcron (gui cron job manager)
[09:57] <jscinoz> I'm trying to use deskbar but when i press my search key, the deskbar search box opens in a window in the centre of the screen, rather than the normal behavior of the searchbox-bubble, how can i fix this?
[09:58] <brobostigon> !deskbar
[09:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about deskbar - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[09:58] <Frogzoo> bryan: chown -R user:group .
[09:58] <bazhang> mely: you have ccsm installed?
[09:59] <mely> bazhang: I'm not sure what ccsm is.
[10:00] <bazhang> !compiz > mely
[10:01] <mely> bazhang: What is !compiz?
[10:01] <bazhang> !compiz | mely
[10:01] <ubotu> mely: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[10:02] <Daisuke_Ido> mely: it's a bot command to have the bot tell you about compiz
[10:02] <mely> bazhang: okay, thanks, will read up.
[10:02] <jscinoz> this is stupid, i've been asking for hours and no one is even acknowledging me...
[10:02] <levander> Where do I go to read about this desktop cube thing everyone's talking about?
[10:02] <mely> !compiz
[10:02] <ubotu> Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion
[10:02] <_DT> compiz fusion is v.nice. together with the emerald theme manager, transparent glassy GUI heaven :-)
[10:03] <bazhang> jscinoz: it is very early in the am, may be better to ask a bit later
[10:03] <levander> _DT: do you have to install an appropriate theme for the cube to work? or, is it theme-independent?
[10:03] <jscinoz> cant ask much later, its 9pm here.
[10:03] <brobostigon> its 10:03 am here
[10:04] <Daisuke_Ido> jscinoz: yes, there it's 9pm.  here it's barely 5am
[10:04] <jscinoz> i know...
[10:04] <levander> _DT: can't find this emerald theme thing on google
[10:04] <jscinoz> basically deskbar search used to appear in a nice little thought bubble coming off its tray icon, now it appears in an ugly window in the middle of the screen, why is this? and how can i get the old behavior back.
[10:05] <_DT> levander: this guide is pretty good : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/CompizFusion
[10:05] <_DT> the desktop cube is theme independent, but you need to enable the plugin in compiz fusion settings
[10:05] <levander> _DT: that's the same guide ubotu linked to above
[10:05] <levander> _DT: but, thanks
[10:05] <_DT> then press ctrl+alt and click and drag the cube
[10:06] <_DT> yep, same guide. I just used it myself yesterday.
[10:06] <_DT> but I used the tuxfamily repositories
[10:08] <_DT> http://compiz.org/Compiz_and_Compiz_Fusion_GIT_Ubuntu_Repository
[10:08] <_DT> I think it's important to uninstall all the existing compiz stuff from synaptic before installing compiz fusion.
[10:08] <bazhang> _DT: is that for gutsy or feisty?
[10:09] <jscinoz> Deskbar search used to appear in a nice little thought bubble coming off its tray icon, now it appears in an ugly window in the middle of the screen, why is this? and how can i get the old behavior back.
[10:09] <_DT> feisty perhaps, I think it's installed by default in Gutsy?
[10:09] <bazhang> some is, though not the advanced stuff
[10:09] <_DT> I'm still on Feisty, for now
[10:10] <_DT> you can add a repository for emerald themes and there's some really nice ones in there. instructions in the emerald theme manager
[10:10]  * _DT ends compiz fusion rant :-)
[10:11] <bazhang> hehe
[10:11] <wers>  before, the desktop icon of my flv video is a frame from the video. now that I reformatted, it just looks like a blank white paper. how do I make the icon a frame from the vid again? :D
[10:13] <tomd> wers: have you opened the video yet?
[10:13] <sahil> how do i set the keyring password? It didnt  get set by default
[10:14] <tomd> wers: try opening it in totem or whatever kde uses to play videos if you're on kde
[10:14] <wers> okay. tomd :D
[10:14] <bazhang> kaffeine is kde default iirc
[10:15] <tomd> i tried switching my system over to kde, then kaffeine wouldn't properly play videos, so I blew it off, I think i like gnome better anyway
[10:15] <wers> I opened it already tomd...
[10:15] <wers> no diff
[10:16] <tomd> I just tried on one of mine.. blank page, then a few minutes of being in the directory and opening the file, they changed to pictures
[10:16] <Frogzoo> kde is not as pretty
[10:16] <savi0r666> hey if i downloaded a tar.bz2 how can i use it
[10:17] <Frogzoo> savi0r666: bunzip2 x.tar.bz2
[10:17] <brobostigon> tar.bz2 is a compressed file like a .zip savior666
[10:17] <savi0r666> but then you have to compile it right?
[10:17] <savi0r666> is there something that automatically does that for you
[10:17] <tomd> dunno why yours isn't doing it..  there must be a preference for it somewhere..
[10:18] <brobostigon> is it source cde inside savir666??
[10:18] <Frogzoo> savi0r666: tar xjf x.tar.bz2   to uncompress & untar
[10:18] <JohnRobert> I'm using dpkg-buildpackage to build something from source, how can I get it to do something like make clean? It's being a bit...weird :/
[10:18] <savi0r666> frog then itll be ready to use?
[10:19] <tomd> wers: i solved your problem
[10:19] <wers> tomd!!!
[10:19] <Frogzoo> savi0r666: then you need to make, make install etc. - read the INSTALL or README that comes with it
[10:19] <wers> yes??
[10:19] <savi0r666> there isnt hardly any info in the install
[10:19] <tomd> wers: run gconf-editor from a terminal
[10:19] <mely> bazhang: I got my cube setup. Sweetness! Thank you kindly!
[10:19] <wers> and then, tomd? :D
[10:20] <punzada> hmm was definitely compiz slowing my laptop down to a crawling stop
[10:20] <punzada> wonder why, it ran fine in fiesty
[10:20] <savi0r666> i wanted to run freedoom
[10:20] <bazhang> mely: you did it all. cheers :}
[10:20] <savi0r666> but not sure how to handle it after its untared
[10:20] <tomd> wers: go to desktop->gnome->thumbnailers->video@flv and make sure enable is checked
[10:21] <Hiscorebob> hi, does anyone know how to enable  the compiz plugin "dodge" in gutsy?
[10:21] <tomd> wers: also make sure gnome-video-thumbnailer is installed
[10:21] <mely> bazhang: Do you know how to fix the screen resolution? The most I have is 1024x768.
[10:21] <onats> anyone here on 7.10? is the hibernate/suspend fixed already?

[10:22] <wers> tomd, yes :D
[10:22] <savi0r666> someone give me a hand please with getting freedoom to run
[10:22] <mely> bazhang: Nvidia.
[10:22] <mattfletcher> HELP! I've used Sony's recovery partitino on my laptop to restore Windows to my laptop (don't worry, I'm putting Ubuntu back on afterwards too!). It has restored the drive to a single Windows partition, but not overwritten the MBR, so GRUB is still coming up and failing. How can I reset GRUB temporarily so it just boots the Windows partition?
[10:22] <Guest16155> does it possible to use dd command on network ?
[10:22] <Frogzoo> onats: suspend is broken for me
[10:22] <onats> frogzoo, what about hibernate?
[10:23] <Frogzoo> onats: not tried
[10:23] <tomd> wers: well, everything is in working order.. do other filetypes work? maybe its a newer version of the codec, etc. im not really sure
[10:23] <bazhang> mely: which drivers are you using? the ones from repositories?

[10:23] <Arnald> I assumed this was working since long ago
[10:24] <mely> bazhang: No. I'm using the restricted drivers. (And why is your name in red?)
[10:24] <Arnald> evne the docs are out of date - is this a regression?
[10:24] <Frogzoo> Arnald: which installer? the 2.0 gparted should play nice
[10:24] <Hiscorebob> Smegzor > you'll need to install an extra package, open up synaptic and look for "compiz gnome", you'll find compiz gnome manager, install that, log out and back in, an you will have an additional icon in the system menu
[10:24] <Ogre_CEGUI> hi guys. I have a simple question that do I have some certain command to check the list of locked users?
[10:24] <Smegzor> thanks
[10:24] <Arnald> Frogzoo: the Gutsy live CD one
[10:24] <Frogzoo> Arnald: should work then
[10:25] <Arnald> I need that as it is runnign Win XP, not Linux !
[10:25] <Frogzoo> Arnald: try defragging under xp first
[10:25] <bazhang> mely: to highlight so people can follow the responses more easily--have you tried setting the resolution via the gui?
[10:25] <astocko> Are there any active Ubuntu Developers on? I'd like to ask you a few questions about how to best get into Ubuntu development. If noone answers, I'm assuming I should just hit up the bug mailing lists and start fixing.
[10:25] <Arnald> Frogzoo: according to the user docs, Ubuntu offers a resize option, but it is not there on my CD
[10:25] <Arnald> Frogzoo: defrag?  OK . . . .
[10:26] <Frogzoo> Arnald: won't allow resize if the partition is mounted..
[10:26] <mely> bazhang: I've tried that: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution. The max is 1024x768 and there aren't any other options for me to select.
[10:27] <Arnald> Frogzoo: all this is default, I haven't mounted the partition, does the installer do that - I'd be very surprised!
[10:27] <Frogzoo> Arnald: the live cd has it mounted, unmount it
[10:27] <Hiscorebob> anyone here who got a toshiba sateliite p100 notebook with gutsy ?
[10:27] <Arnald> jeesus - that sounds really dangerous!!!!
[10:27] <tomd> mely: you can probably get a better res by editing your Xorg.conf
[10:28] <tomd> mely: just make sure you back it up prior to attempting this
[10:28] <bazhang> mely: I can give you another link--I am not so good with fixing resolution
[10:28] <tomd> mely, and don't even do it, if you're not comfortable using the terminal
[10:28] <Arnald> Frogzoo: anyone could blow away a partition
[10:28] <mely> tomd: Thanks.
[10:28] <Hiscorebob> I noticed that merely all screen resolution problems have something to do with the driver used
[10:28] <mely> bazhang: I'd appreciate that other link.
[10:28] <Arnald> oh well, I'll investigate next time I get the chance - thanks

[10:36] <mattfletcher> HELP! I've used Sony's recovery partitino on my laptop to restore Windows to my laptop (don't worry, I'm putting Ubuntu back on afterwards too!). It has restored the drive to a single Windows partition, but not overwritten the MBR, so GRUB is still coming up and failing. How can I reset GRUB temporarily so it just boots the Windows partition?
[10:38] <kane77> mattfletcher, on windows cd there should be fixmbr... I've never used it so I can't help much...
[10:38] <tarelerulz> I am connect via my lan port and right to my cable modem . I get irc  and can use synaptic ,but web pages time ?  How could I fix that
[10:38] <brobostigon> fdisk -mbr
[10:38] <neville> Why don't you make a super grub usb drive
[10:39] <ibanez> how do i locate a broken pipe ?
[10:40] <mattfletcher> kane77 and brobostigon, i do not have a windows cd, it's a silly recovery partition that sony use. can i not use an ubuntu live cd to write the correct "something" to the mbr?
[10:40] <Daisuke_Ido> look for the dripping water
[10:40] <brobostigon> the broken pipe is the one with water coming out of it!!!
[10:40] <ibanez> lol
[10:40] <ibanez> but seriously though ;p
[10:40] <brobostigon> lol
[10:40] <xeer> anyone familiar with dmraid? i'm viewing the last of my sectors and i'm not seeing my chipset name.. i do however see my raid1 name. any insight?

[10:41] <evdvelde> hi all, can anyone explain me the difference between the desktop and server edition? what does the server have/lack in comparison with the desktop edition?
[10:42] <Daisuke_Ido> well, it lacks a desktop environment, afaik
[10:42] <bazzieb> every time i create or reply to a new mail in Evolution, it asks me for "Enter password for Global Address List". This email box is on my exchange server. Would it be my AD password it is looking for??
[10:42] <MinusSeven> Which program should I use for streaming m3u, radio stations ?
[10:42] <evdvelde> Daisuke_Ido: but since the repos are the same... is there really a difference?
[10:42] <databuddy> bullgard4 then turn on the boot log
[10:42] <databuddy> ~_~
[10:42] <kane77> evdvelde, server edition is supposed to be used on server where you don't need desktop environment
[10:42] <rtl8139cp> how do i enable external VGA output with the xrand command?
[10:43] <evdvelde> kane77: are the packages different built? or is it just a smaller install? and what about long term support?
[10:43] <Daisuke_Ido> evdvelde: the difference is what's *included*
[10:44] <Daisuke_Ido> not what you *can* install
[10:44] <evdvelde> Daisuke_Ido: so... in fact with a fast network connection, there is no difference?
[10:44] <kane77> evdvelde, LTS is for versions that were marked LTS (6.06 and now 8.04 will be)
[10:44] <segaGman> 7.10 is buggy
[10:44] <Daisuke_Ido> evdvelde: you would still have to install a desktop environment if you wanted one, there *is* a difference in what they're used for, yes.
[10:45] <Daisuke_Ido> segaGman: so's every other OS ever, get over it
[10:45] <segaGman> testy there
[10:45] <bazhang> segaGman: compared to what?
[10:45] <segaGman> geeez
[10:45] <evdvelde> Daisuke_Ido: ah okay... i think that covers it for me, thank you!
[10:45] <gordonjcp> segaGman: can you be more specific?
[10:45] <Daisuke_Ido> just saying, you come in and the first thing you say is that it's buggy.  you need to be a little more specific
[10:46] <segaGman> i got a gforce 2 runig beryl under the fawn yet i cant get it to run on a gforce4mx4000 under gibbion
[10:47] <Daisuke_Ido> probably because beryl doesn't exist anymore.
[10:47] <Asusu> hello. is there an easy way to remove a file from a .deb file package ?
[10:47] <segaGman> your saying it is nowere to be found/
[10:47] <segaGman> ?
[10:47] <Daisuke_Ido> i'm saying it was absorbed into compiz
[10:48] <meborc> segaGman: the compiz-fusion is the way to go
[10:48] <bazhang> segaGman: no longer around for gutsy now compiz-fusion
[10:48] <Daisuke_Ido> compiz-fusion is the remerging of compiz and beryl
[10:48] <gordonjcp> yeah, beryl is obsolete now
[10:48] <gordonjcp> compiz should be ok on a GF4
[10:48] <segaGman> that sucks i like the gui
[10:48] <Daisuke_Ido> the settings gui?
[10:49] <bazhang> segaGman: compiz-fusion is truly amazing
[10:49] <meborc> the gui for C-F is also excellent... i mean the config pack
[10:49] <Daisuke_Ido> or the overall look and feel
[10:49] <segaGman> ever had prob with gforce 4 series?
[10:49] <gordonjcp> segaGman: yes
[10:49] <Daisuke_Ido> i can't justify calling an mx4000 a member of the 4 series
[10:49] <segaGman> i got a mx420 an mx4000
[10:49] <bazhang> segaGman: that the nvidia
[10:49] <gordonjcp> segaGman: the fan seized and fell off its shaft
[10:49] <gordonjcp> other than that it's been shiny
[10:50] <gordonjcp> I only replaced it 'cos I wanted to get ET:QW
[10:50] <meborc> segaGman, install compizconfig-settings-manager and try it out!
[10:50] <segaGman> well i got them gave to me they both came from oem boxz
[10:51] <segaGman> ever herd of ENVY?
[10:51] <bazhang> segaGman: avoid it
[10:51] <jakubTraveler> hi people, i would like to know how  to change subtitle color in xine.. i didn't find it in config file. and google doesn't seem enough helpful..
[10:52] <segaGman> this is just a test rig i install ne distros on weekly
[10:53] <Zoidfarb> How can I set a program to run on startup before login?
[10:53] <Zoidfarb> and keep running after login
[10:53] <xeer> anyone familiar with dmraid? i'm viewing the last of my sectors and i'm not seeing my chipset name.. i do however see my raid1 name. any insight?
[10:53] <zewb> hey i can't find the advanced settings in wubi
[10:53] <segaGman> well  i hate  the MX series now i run beryl on  a gforce2 vs a MX it bull
[10:54] <zewb> did they remove that?
[10:54] <zewb> i want to install fluxbuntu but i have no cd burner
[10:55] <Tidus> zewb: you can install any ubuntu variety, then just enable universe and install fluxbox from that
[10:55] <zewb> ugh
[10:55] <zewb> congratulations
[10:55] <Tidus> !info fluxbox
[10:55] <ubotu> fluxbox: Highly configurable and low resource X11 Window manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.0.0-1 (gutsy), package size 1033 kB, installed size 3848 kB
[10:55] <zewb> you are the 1000th person to tell me that
[10:55] <zewb> i want to install fluxbuntu
[10:55] <bazhang> zewb: then install it
[10:55] <Tidus> hey, sometimes with no cd burner you gotta take what you can get
[10:55] <Zoidfarb> fluxbuntu isn't an official version
[10:55] <Zoidfarb> so it probably isn't supported by wubi
[10:56] <mrbister> How do I change the default O/S that grub starts?
[10:56] <zewb> apparently the early version of wubi has advanced settings that let you install other os's
[10:57] <zewb> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide#head-50c55488713c68d72e84caf1fb5b3522753d174e
[10:57] <zewb> but i've used all the versions available from the wubi site and none of them have this advanced settings thing
[10:57] <Zoidfarb> maybe they removed it
[10:58] <segaGman> do you think i can dual boot hackintosh ubuntu an experince that hfs+ gives me a headace
[10:58] <bazhang> is there a #wubi channel?
[10:58] <Zoidfarb> what's wrong with just installing xubuntu or something and then adding fluxbox once you've got a working OS?
[10:58] <zewb> because it comes with a lot of extra stuff i don't need
[10:58] <zewb> fluxbuntu is only 300 mb
[10:58] <Zoidfarb> you can remove that...
[10:59] <Textboo1> I'm trying to get ubuntu installed on an Xbox 360, I don't suppose there's anybody in here who has done that is there?
[10:59] <zewb> and i don't have a lot of space on this harddrive
[10:59] <bazhang> zewb: do you have a question?
[10:59] <zewb> yes
[10:59] <tahir> hello, is 'apt-get source program_name' the best way to download source code? Why can't I use aptitude to get source code?
[10:59] <zewb> does anyone know how to install fluxbuntu without burning a cd?
[11:00] <bazhang> zewb: have you checked pendrivelinux dot com?
[11:00] <mrbister> so, no one who can tell me how to change the configuration of grub?
[11:00] <mrbister> I wanted to know where I change the default options for grub (timeout, o/s selection, etc)
[11:00] <xeer> mrbister, check the menu.lst in /boot/grub
[11:00] <Zoidfarb> /boot/grub/menu.lst
[11:00] <Textboo1> mrbister: it's in /boot/grub/menu.lst I think?
[11:01] <mrbister> thx
[11:01] <mrbister> I will.

[11:09] <punzada> I recently fixed my major problem on my laptop, installed gutsy on it and it was randomly slowing down to a halt when it ran fiesty fine, with only compiz wm running and a few apps
[11:09] <punzada> turns out i totally forgot in the install to add a swap partition ;x

[11:12] <segaGman> i wana try that linuxbios deal and run ubuntu from pen
[11:12] <void^> wucheng: don't run it from within a X session as the user who owns the session.
[11:13] <punzada> segaGman, that does look very promising
[11:13] <punzada> extremely quick boots :)
[11:14] <segaGman> i read 3 sec
[11:14] <segaGman> thats crazy
[11:14] <void^> wucheng: er, do, not don't.
[11:14] <gordonjcp> segaGman: well, a lot of the time spent on bootup is waiting for devices to come ready
[11:14] <gordonjcp> segaGman: you can't load the kernel if the drive hasn't spun up yet

[11:15] <Lupino> I need to upgrade Xgl to a newer version than what I get with 7.10/Gusty (must, and can't use aiglx).  How would I go about doing that, and would there be any problems?
[11:15] <void^> wucheng: it seems you are running it on a root shell.
[11:15] <segaGman> well i know i want one
[11:15] <gordonjcp> so if you've got a compressed kernel in ROM then you can be decompressing that and the initrd to RAM while the disks are spinning up etc
[11:15] <wucheng> yes ,
[11:15] <wucheng> does it matter?
[11:15] <j^_> is anyone able to install or build linux-igd on gutsy?
[11:15] <void^> wucheng: yes.
