[03:11] <neutrinomass> what even controls the fan (in terms of hardware) ?
[03:12] <sethk> mutk, for full redundency, yes
[03:12] <looktj> k im back
[03:12] <sethk> mutk, I still like it  :)
[03:12] <halitech> wikityler, not sure then
[03:12] <wikityler_cantre> sethk: i have a v.5.04, is that breezy?
[03:12] <sethk> neutrinomass, that's part of the i2c bus
[03:12] <looktj> i resized this partition to 10 GB and left the rest on other
[03:12] <sethk> wikityler_cantre, yes
[03:12] <wikityler_cantre> ok.
[03:13] <mutk> sethk, I agree, been my choice for a while..
[03:13] <halitech> 5.04 was hoary wasn't it? 5.1 was breezy
[03:13] <wikityler_cantre> when i do a media test it fails every 6.06 disk, even though they pass in a different computer. could it be the drive?
[03:13] <bruenig> halitech, you are correct
[03:14] <sethk> wikityler_cantre, yes, indeed, could be a minor alignment issue.  unless you burned the 5.04 cd on the same drive
[03:14] <sethk> halitech, sorry, yes, my mistake
[03:14] <Abst> Can ubuntu read NTFS by default?
[03:14] <bruenig> Abst, yes it can read
[03:14] <halitech> no worries
[03:14] <nozorro> Abst yes
[03:14] <Abst> Okay
[03:14] <wikityler_cantre> they arn;t burned cds i ordered them from canonical
[03:15] <bobbob1016> any ideas for my firestarter problem?  I don't want to be annoying or anything
[03:15] <looktj> now how i install windows to go on the right partition?
[03:15] <sethk> wikityler_cantre, one thing you might try is burning a CD/R on the drive which has the problem (if it's a burner)
[03:15] <wikityler_cantre> its not.
[03:15] <sethk> bobbob1016, what was you answer to my question about trying to repair the package data?
[03:15] <wikityler_cantre> but ill swap in my burner and see if i can boot using it,
[03:15] <wikityler_cantre> bbiab, thanks for the help
[03:16] <bobbob1016> I did dpkg --configure -a
[03:16] <bobbob1016> or something
[03:16] <fnTc^spNk> hmm it still isnt working
[03:16] <neutrinomass> sethk: Thanks. I'm not exactly sure what that is or where it gets listed... I'll try looking it up though... btw, is /proc/acpi/fan supposed to be empty ?
[03:16] <sethk> bobbob1016, try running synaptic and selecting the repair option from the menu
[03:16] <sethk> neutrinomass, I'm not certain, I don't think so but there are optional fans, and not all mobos have all fans
[03:17] <neutrinomass> sethk: It's a lappy if it makes any difference..
[03:17] <dashriKe> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5503582578132361295
[03:17] <bobbob1016> repair does nothing
[03:17] <bobbob1016> I did fix broken
[03:18] <neutrinomass> And it gets uncomfortably hot at times, so I'm trying to figure out how to cool it down (frequency scaling is working, it drops to 1 Ghz - I don't feel like making it drop more )

[03:20] <ladydoor> sorry

[03:20] <madman__> Hatty: no
[03:20] <bobbob1016> firestarter says my kernel doesn't have iptable support, and when I try complete removal, I get this "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. "
[03:21] <sethk> bobbob1016, if it's a one liner you can paste it here, or two lines
[03:21] <madman__> Hatty: memory maybe
[03:21] <sethk> bobbob1016, you did that, with sudo?  sudo dpkg --configure -a     ?
[03:21] <bobbob1016> yeah

[03:22] <ladydoor> !SHOUT
[03:22] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[03:22] <halitech> Hatty, been running Dapper fine since it was released and I upgraded from breezy
[03:22] <sethk> bobbob1016, I'm just not convinced that uninstalling is going to make any difference
[03:22] <sethk> bobbob1016, we have to find the root of the problem
[03:22] <halitech> Hatty, I only have 384 and it runs fine, can convert a movie, browse and chat with no issues
[03:23] <bobbob1016> I don't need to remove it, I want to either fix or reinstall
[03:23] <madman__> Hatty: you just ubuntu running on your machine ?
[03:23] <sethk> bobbob1016, sorry, I know you've told us twice, but run through it again for me, what you did that got you into this situation.
[03:23] <sethk> bobbob1016, I thought you had asked about removing, sorry if that's wrong
[03:23] <Hatty> madman__ had. I was running like aMSN (It happened several times when it wasnt open) and irssi in gnome-terminal
[03:24] <bobbob1016> I needed to upgrade my kernel so it would see my battery (this is a laptop), and when I did so the kernel I didn't know I needed iptables in there, so now firestarter says there are problems with iptables
[03:24] <YeTr2> what options do I have for GameBoy emulation do I have for ubuntu?
[03:24] <bobbob1016> I went from 2.6.15 to 2.6.17
[03:24] <sethk> bobbob1016, why not add the iptables support?
[03:24] <looktj> Anyone familiar with dual boot?
[03:25] <madman__> Hatty: have you look at the background services running on machine ?
[03:25] <sethk> bobbob1016, do you need firestarter for some reason?
[03:25] <sethk> looktj, probably everyone, but you'll never know unless you ask a question  :)
[03:25] <neutrinomass> bobbob1016: How did you do that, why and are you on dapper ?
[03:25] <Krank_> Is there any benefit for using the K7 kernel over the 386? I have an athlon 64.
[03:25] <Hatty> madman__ nothing was taking up all that much
[03:25] <bobbob1016> no, the problem is that firestarter gives me weird errors through anything apt-related
[03:25] <ShoeUnited> !ftp
[03:25] <ubotu> FTP clients: gftp, konqueror, kbear, nautilus. FTP servers: ftpd, proftpd, pure-ftpd, twoftpd, vsftpd
[03:25] <sethk> Krank_, the benefits are very minor where they exist at all
[03:25] <looktj> I need to install windows on my new partition which is /dev/hda3
[03:25] <neutrinomass> Krank_: Yes. Not terrible, but worth trying it if you feel like it - you don't have to though ...
[03:25] <ShoeUnited> Ok, which ftp is best for uploading to my server?
[03:26] <sethk> bobbob1016, ok, give us the exact text of one of those errors
[03:26] <madman__> Hatty: have you tryed a clean command in shell ?
[03:26] <Hatty> clean?
[03:26] <fnTc^spNk> module nvidia_legacy not found, can anyone tell me what this means? :c
[03:26] <bobbob1016> I followed a thread to upgrade it, I did it because 2.6.15 wouldn't see my battery and I was told a newer one would which it did, and yes I am using dapper
[03:26] <sethk> looktj, a warning; windows is sometimes very bitchy about booting from anywhere other than first partition on primary master
[03:26] <Krank_> So K7 is a little bit better.. Perhaps I'll give it a try.
[03:26] <kitche> bobbob1016: well firestarter is just an overlay to make iptables setup easier so you might not have compiled iptables in the kernel
[03:26] <sethk> looktj, the dual boot part is easy, if windows runs.
[03:26] <nozorro> Krank_ with an athlon 32, i haven't seen any difference speed wise. plus, i have seen problems with power management and nvidia drivers when using the k7 kernel
[03:26] <madman__> Hatty: looking now
[03:27] <kitche> fnTc^spNk: you don't have the nvidia_legacy driver installed
[03:27] <teekay_> sup
[03:27] <phisher1> hello
[03:27] <fnTc^spNk> :\
[03:27] <_wall`> Hello
[03:27] <sethk> kitche, yes, that's what he said (although not in those words), the new kernel doesn't have the iptables options that firestarter is expecting
[03:27] <bobbob1016> is there any way I can add iptables, without a recompile, I was scared while doing the recompile the first time
[03:27] <ShoeUnited> Ok, which ftp is best for uploading to my server?
[03:27] <looktj> Sethk: I have ubuntu on this partition(/dev/hda1)
[03:27] <sethk> kitche, tried that already (for fnTc^spNk )  :)
[03:27] <fnTc^spNk> i thougt i just installed them with apt-get thingy
[03:27] <neutrinomass> bobbob1016: For starters, you shouldn't be really running 2.6.17 on dapper. There have been udev changes and things might break. You compiled from source I understand so you probably forgot to include compile time options when configuring the kernel ...
[03:27] <sethk> looktj, yes, that's fine
[03:27] <Abst> In terminal how can I make it so function keys dont open top menus? (for midnight commander)
[03:28] <sethk> looktj, go ahead and install windows on the third partition.  if the install completes and it boots, then come back and we'll help you set up dual boot.
[03:28] <looktj> I've never done dual boot before
[03:28] <Krank_> Ah, couple more questions... is there an easy install method for the latest nvidia drivers?
[03:28] <sethk> looktj, before installing windows, back up the mbr as follows:
[03:28] <Abst> !mc > Abst
[03:28] <sethk> looktj, dd if=/dev/hda of=/root/mbr-backup bs=512 count=1
[03:28] <neutrinomass> bobbob1016: The correct way would be to file a bug report on linux-source-2.6.15. Point out that the problem was fixed in such and such kernel, include any information requested and respond to developer's questions :-)
[03:28] <sethk> looktj, sorry, use    sudo dd if=/dev/hda of=/root/mbr-backup bs=512 count=1
[03:28] <sethk> looktj, then what you'll do by installing windows is easily reversible
[03:29] <sethk> looktj, as I said, if windows happily boots from hda3, your in good shape and we just add a few lines to your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:29] <sethk> s/your/you're/   ugh
[03:29] <fellipe> ...
[03:29] <bobbob1016> oh, ok, I just needed the battery things sooner since I use the computer unplugged a lot (in class)
[03:30] <bobbob1016> and I don't know how to do a bug report
[03:30] <sethk> neutrinomass, that isn't really his problem
[03:30] <sethk> neutrinomass, his problem is that apt-get is now broken
[03:30] <sethk> neutrinomass, he can't do anything with packages
[03:30] <bobbob1016> it isn't BROKEN it just doesn't work from time to time
[03:30] <neutrinomass> sethk: Ouch :-/
[03:30] <looktj> i just need windows for photoshop and one game btw
[03:30] <bobbob1016> sorry if I wasn't that clear
[03:31] <bobbob1016> frequently
[03:31] <looktj> what about aptitude?
[03:31] <_wall`> investigating
[03:31] <teekay_> don't know
[03:31] <bobbob1016> aptitude?
[03:31] <nozorro> Krank_, you can change terminal keycombos using Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts ...
[03:31] <sethk> bobbob1016, I'm not sure if you answered; what is the exact text of the error you get?
[03:31] <kakahn> when i write: apt-get update ( it is for install wine ) , i have this  "Impossible de rcuprer http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/dists/breezy/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz  404 Not Found
[03:31] <kakahn> E: Impossible de verrouiller /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Ressource temporairement non disponible)
[03:31] <kakahn> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?
[03:31] <kakahn> "
[03:31] <sethk> bobbob1016, aptitude is another front end to apt-get, like synaptic.  irrelevant to this problem
[03:32] <looktj> cya gonna go find my windows cd
[03:32] <sethk> kakahn, don't paste
[03:32] <sethk> kakahn, use sudo before apt-get
[03:32] <sethk> kakahn, sudo apt-get update
[03:32] <kakahn> same
[03:32] <kakahn> same error
[03:32] <Hobbsee> kakahn: sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock  && sudo apt-get update
[03:33] <Hobbsee> sethk: it's a 404, and the lock hasnt been removed - not a permissions error
[03:33] <Jack_Sparrow> that url is no good
[03:33] <sethk> Hobbsee, ok
[03:33] <bobbob1016> synaptic says "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." and I do that in terminal (with sudo) and nothing happens
[03:33] <sethk> Hobbsee, no, look at the error
[03:33] <Hobbsee> sethk: i did :)
[03:33] <sethk> bobbob1016, try sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[03:33] <nuxord> hello
[03:34] <sethk> Hobbsee, his problem is a missing packages.gz, not lock
[03:34] <Hobbsee> true that.
[03:34] <Jack_Sparrow> agreed
[03:34] <nuxord> i am looking for a good web page editor, whee might i find one?
[03:34] <bobbob1016> ok, one second
[03:34] <Hobbsee> sethk: as to why it doesnt go and find the packages.gz, and throws an error, i dont know.
[03:34] <sethk> Hobbsee, I don't either, yet
[03:34] <Krank_> How does wine work with apps that get installed? I can get single .exe files to work fine, just not sure about others..
[03:34] <kakahn> Hobbsee, after this, error: impossible location source packages
[03:34] <Xenguy> nuxord: nvu is WYSIWYG
[03:34] <sethk> Hobbsee, I think your command might help bobbob1016 , though
[03:34] <nuxord> nvu?
[03:35] <Xenguy> yes
[03:35] <nuxord> i dont know what it stand for...nvu?
[03:35] <Hobbsee> bobbob1016:  sudo dpkg --configure -a, if it comes back blank, it's worked
[03:35] <kakahn> i use 5.10 amd64
[03:35] <sethk> Hobbsee, thing is, he's done that several times and said nothing changed.
[03:35] <Xenguy> nuxord: sudo apt-get install nvu
[03:35] <bobbob1016> yeah, it comes back blank

[03:36] <nuxord> Thanks, just what i needed.
[03:36] <bobbob1016> sorry, I get the same error again
[03:36] <Hobbsee> HeathenDan: i could do that, yes
[03:36] <sethk> D00B3Y, yes, those are all for building from source
[03:36] <Hobbsee> bobbob1016: what is the error?
[03:36] <HeathenDan> lol
[03:37] <HeathenDan> :p
[03:37] <sethk> D00B3Y, if you can install a binary, you don't have to figure out what's wrong with the source build
[03:37] <Hobbsee> HeathenDan: there are enough bans given out here as it is
[03:37] <D00B3Y> oh.. I don' think so, ircu is for an IRCd server
[03:37] <bobbob1016> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[03:37] <HeathenDan> im just saying, it's a waste to not abuse mad op powers
[03:37] <HeathenDan> XD
[03:37] <sethk> D00B3Y, check, also do a search, see if there is a package not in the official ubuntu repositories.  there are other repositories floating around
[03:37] <bee> Is anyone here using a Speedlink Medusa 5.1 Surround Sound USB headset ?
[03:37] <Hobbsee> bobbob1016: ah.  "sudo dpkg --configure -a && sudo apt-get update" does nothing?

[03:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Is he running breezy or dapper?
[03:38] <sethk> D00B3Y, ok, let me look
[03:38] <Dr_Willis> brooklyn,  use a terminal emulator that supports that silly feature
[03:38] <bobbob1016> that works
[03:38] <Dr_Willis> :)
[03:38] <Hobbsee> kakahn: um?
[03:38] <HeathenDan> haha, silly feature... well said
[03:38] <D00B3Y> couldn't find package..
[03:39] <brooklyn> well, i switched to ubuntu from slack, and it was transparent, im just used to it.
[03:39] <sethk> D00B3Y, I need more of it.  the first error is almost always the important one, rarely the last
[03:39] <Dr_Willis> brooklyn,  most use fake-transparency however.
[03:39] <eyequeue> brooklyn, edit > current profile > effects > transparent
[03:39] <D00B3Y> I'll copy the whole thing if you want..
[03:39] <sethk> D00B3Y, do the build, capture the output, and put all of the output on the paste
[03:39] <bobbob1016> I mean it always gives me the "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem." after I do anything apt-related
[03:39] <sethk> D00B3Y, might help

[03:45] <sethk> D00B3Y, I'll download it and see if I can track it down.  It's a bit odd; I would expect the compile to fail, not the link
[03:45] <td13> help me please??
[03:45] <D00B3Y> thanks.
[03:46] <nuxord> its not in the applications menu, where would Nvu be?
[03:46] <eyequeue> nuxord, applications > programming
[03:46] <Dr_Willis> nuxord,  or just type nvu  in a shell .:)
[03:46] <kakahn> download finish jack_sparrow
[03:46] <eyequeue> nuxord, killall gnome-panel
[03:46] <sethk> D00B3Y, will take a while; I have to walk the dog first.
[03:46] <nozorro> td13, me, i can't, sorry -- someone else?
[03:46] <nuxord> alright thanks, got it
[03:46] <chris__> Hi I am an Ubuntu newb and have problem with Ubuntu desktop, can anyone help?
[03:46] <D00B3Y> sethk, I have to go.. do you think you can e-mail me or get back to me tomorrow?
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> kakahn: double click it
[03:47] <nozorro> chris_ what's your problem?
[03:47] <Dr_Willis> chris__,  clarify the problem. :)
[03:47] <longwave> sethk, D00B3Y: looks like may be something to do with dns resolver libraries; i have seen odd linkage problems before like that
[03:47] <kakahn> not open
[03:47] <kakahn> impossible
[03:47] <Jack_Sparrow> kakahn: YOu have the deb on your desktop?
[03:47] <kakahn> .deb
[03:48] <kakahn> yes .deb
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> You got all 12 meg that fast.. wow
[03:48] <islan> is connecting your comp to a projector any different from connecting it to a TV with an s-vid cable in ubuntu?
[03:48] <kakahn> ^
[03:48] <kakahn> ^
[03:48] <kakahn> it is ok ^
[03:48] <cliffd> anyone know how to make it so powernowd lets my cpu sit at 100% all the time, no stepping.
[03:48] <chris__> nozorro I have lost 'places' icon from panel, tried to add it to panel but not possible
[03:48] <cycom> if you're using S-Vid, I suppose not
[03:48] <kakahn> but i can"t double clik
[03:48] <Jack_Sparrow> kakahn: What is the file size?
[03:49] <kakahn> 12,0 Mb
[03:49] <longwave> cliffd: why would you want that? doesn't powernowd step up to 100% when cpu usage gets high enough to warrant using that much power anyway?
[03:49] <Jack_Sparrow> k
[03:49] <kakahn> wine_0.9.19~winehq0~ubuntu~5.10-1_i386.deb
[03:49] <nozorro> chris__ how do you mean, could you describe in more detail pls?
[03:49] <sethk> longwave, you are correct, he needs to add -lresolv to the link line
[03:49] <lupine_85> clifd: just disable powernowd ?
[03:49] <sethk> longwave, good call, only where did he go?   :)
[03:50] <cliffd> longwave: my laptop is always plugged in and it just sits 800mhz and takes forever to launch firefox etc etc
[03:50] <brooklyn> Does anyone here use "server ubuntu" as a desktop, or is the actuall desktop version more popular
[03:50] <sethk> can't email him without his email
[03:50] <longwave> sethk: yeah haha, well hopefully he will be back when one of us is here :)
[03:50] <Jack_Sparrow> kakahn: I am trying to get it now
[03:50] <kakahn> Jack_Sparrow, i have install ubuntu, 2hours ago
[03:50] <sethk> longwave, :)
[03:50] <chris__> I can access files from command line but I am lazy and want to use desktop instead, I had a menu titles 'places' where I could access home holder etc. but seem to have lost this
[03:50] <kakahn> ok
[03:51] <longwave> cliffd: hrm i see, though when i start firefox my laptop briefly ramps up to 1.6ghz while it loads then goes back to 800mhz when it is done
[03:51] <Jack_Sparrow> can someone walk him through dpkg - a local *deb
[03:51] <cliffd> longwave: same thing, mine will sit at 800mhz for like 10 seconds, launche firefox, jump to 1.8 and then go back down
[03:51] <nozorro> chris__ oh. only the 'places' menu, or also 'applications', 'system'?
[03:51] <cliffd> but, If i set it to 1.8 manually then launch firefox it takes less then 1 second to start
[03:52] <longwave> cliffd: it only takes about that long for firefox to start for me anyway! i dont know how to fix powernowd though i am afraid
[03:52] <eyequeue> kakahn, sudo dpkg -i foo.deb
[03:52] <cliffd> longwave: ok thakns.
[03:52] <kakahn> ok i test
[03:52] <longwave> brooklyn: once you install X on ubuntu server, it's pretty much a desktop version by then anyway - really there is no difference
[03:52] <cliffd> I think the -u 100 -l 100 works but im not sure how to set the option in /etc/default/powernowd
[03:53] <nozorro> chris__, if you lost all of thos menus, you can re-add them without problem
[03:53] <longwave> cliffd: is there just an OPTIONS="" bit in that file? just put those flags between the quotes
[03:53] <chris__> nozorro, how do I add them?
[03:53] <Jack_Sparrow> eyequeue: since I dont dpkg... what does foo do  or is that a psudoname for the name of the file he wants?
[03:53] <diezare> guys, when i apt-get search mplayer i don't find except the kmplayer, any ideas if it was removed or wut?
[03:54] <cliffd> longwave: yeah I just figured that out. wasnt sure what to do. im kind of dumb.
[03:54] <nozorro> chris__ step by step: right-click on the panel ...
[03:54] <eyequeue> Jack_Sparrow, the latter, a metasyntactic variable
[03:54] <longwave> !info mplayer
[03:54] <ubotu> mplayer: The Ultimate Movie Player For Linux. In component multiverse, is extra. Version 2:0.99+1.0pre7try2+cvs20060117-0ubuntu8 (dapper), package size 3265 kB, installed size 7916 kB
[03:54] <chris__> ok
[03:54] <longwave> diezare: mplayer is in multiverse, maybe you need to enable that repo?
[03:54] <nozorro> chris__ then select 'Add to panel'
[03:54] <sethk> diezare, not removed
[03:54] <jrib> diezare: you need dapper multiverse repository
[03:54] <diezare> how can i enable this repository?
[03:54] <nozorro> chris__ finally select Menu Bar
[03:54] <eyequeue> Jack_Sparrow, i wasn't tracking the conversation to see any more than your request :)
[03:54] <longwave> !multiverse
[03:54] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and !easysource
[03:55] <qazew> anyone ran into a blank screen ( no mouse ) when booting a livecd? (ati x1800 w/ dvi lcd monitors)
[03:55] <eyequeue> !repos > diezare
[03:55] <kakahn> eyequeue, Jack_Sparrow , i have again an error . I have a Amd 64 version
[03:55] <qazew> when it starts to load X up it just quits sending a signal to the monitor
[03:55] <chris__> nozorro.. I have my menus back but stuff is missing from them
[03:55] <chris__> the main thing I want back is my 'home' folder in the 'places' menu
[03:55] <nozorro> chris__ first off, in order not to lose the menu again, do the following:
[03:55] <jpjacobs> qazew, sounds like out-of-range things...
[03:56] <jpjacobs> qazew, tried different resolutions/depths?
[03:56] <Jack_Sparrow> eyequeue:  So it would be...?   sudo dpkg -i  wine_0.9.19~winehq0~ubuntu~5.10-1_i386.deb
[03:56] <qazew> i'd love to...but this is just the live CD
[03:56] <kingofhearts> how to I get 6.06 to start in command-line mode?
[03:56] <qazew> it does the initial loading then when X trys to start up it just quit's sending a signal
[03:56] <nozorro> chris__ how did it happen? did you do anything special?
[03:56] <eyequeue> Jack_Sparrow, if that's the filename, sure
[03:56] <qazew> think i can do cntl+alt+backspace or whatever and get a console?
[03:56] <jpjacobs> qazew, you can select different modes with one of the F-keys...
[03:57] <sethk> qazew, control-alt-f1
[03:57] <qazew> <3
[03:57] <qazew> thx
[03:57] <chris__> I seem to remember installing beagle
[03:57] <sethk> qazew, control-alt-backspace kills x, but it will restart and fail again
[03:57] <eyequeue> Jack_Sparrow, apt-get uses package names, dpkg uses filenames
[03:57] <chris__> this all started with me searching for a file, I wanted to speed it up with Beagle
[03:57] <Jack_Sparrow> kakahn: Go to the site you linked and find the one you want and download it to your desktop
[03:57] <td13> installed java, restarted, ubuntu boot screen will not come up...??
[03:57] <kakahn> Jack_Sparrow, i take what ?
[03:57] <longwave> td13: java should not affect the boot process. are you sure this is all that has changed since you last rebooted?
[03:57] <kakahn> i have ubutun 5.10 amd64
[03:58] <kakahn> ubuntu*
[03:58] <nozorro> chris__ ah ..., well other than deinstalling it (it's beta software) i can't help you because ...
[03:59] <nozorro> chris:: because the items in the places menu are generated from the innards of the gnome system.
[03:59] <amonkey> i'm copying files from a old drive to a new drive, how can i make sure they get there ok? is there something that will checksum both files and tell me if they are different for a bunch of files?
[03:59] <td13> how do I repair gnome??
[03:59] <kishore> hi
[03:59] <Lathiat> td13: What's the problem?
[03:59] <sethk> td13, try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:59] <sethk> td13, with sudo
[03:59] <MagicFab> where would be the best place to ask about Ubuntu's trademarks abuse/ misuse ?
[03:59] <Jack_Sparrow> kakahn: Every file on the site ends in 386...
[03:59] <kishore> i have upgraded my breezy to dapper..sometimes.its not booting to ubuntu
[04:00] <sethk> MagicFab, no idea.  you can try here.
[04:00] <longwave> amonkey: "md5sum" can create checksums of a file
[04:00] <nozorro> chris:__ what you could do is to deinstall gnome-panel (and all its dependencies), and then reinstall, but it's quite a hassle
[04:00] <sethk> amonkey, md5sum
[04:00] <Jack_Sparrow> TIme for me to call it a day...
[04:00] <chris__> nozrorro, you think it is not possible to add my home folder back to the 'places' menu on the toolbar?... everyhting else in there is ok
[04:00] <sethk> amonkey, I use a program I wrote to compare directories using md5sum
[04:00] <bluefox83> !w32codecs
[04:00] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats  -  See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html  -  But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[04:00] <fellipe> how can I get a new version for amsn??
[04:00] <sethk> amonkey, there is an easier way, though; the diff command will accept directories
[04:01] <Jack_Sparrow> THe wife is giving me that "Look"
[04:01] <Jack_Sparrow> goodnight
[04:01] <nozorro> chris__ might be possible, but nothing that i know right know. another workaround would be to create a new user account (after deinstalling beagle) and then work from there
[04:01] <chris__> same problem with other user accounts
[04:01] <chris__> tried that
[04:01] <santiago> hi everyone, Im looking for any way to change gcc language without changing the whole system language, any idea?
[04:01] <MagicFab> somegeek, apaprently some comapny calling themselves "Interlink/Ubuntu" is organizing some sort of event claimin to be a non-profit Ubuntu club and even saying they have confirmed Mark suttleworth and linus Torvalds attendance.
[04:02] <chris__> I think I will go for the reinstall panel option
[04:02] <nozorro> chris__ wait! big hassel ahead!
[04:02] <sethk> MagicFab, put that on the bullshit list with the novell suit
[04:02] <sethk> MagicFab, anybody who knows anything about the law will tell you that you can't speak up about something like that a long time after the name is adopted
[04:03] <nozorro> chris__ another option is occurring to me ...
[04:03] <eyequeue> !language > sethk
[04:03] <sethk> MagicFab, by not protesting, any claim is lost.  I doubt there is a claim in the first place, but, if so, forget about it now
[04:03] <MagicFab> sethk, anybody in south america knows they can for a long time
[04:03] <chris__> fire away :-)
[04:03] <nozorro> chris__ you could reinstall gnome-panel with one command, just let me search the command ...
[04:03] <td13> Lathiat: when I boot up it shows that everything is ...ok, then my monitor goes black, says no signal, comes back black and thats it.
[04:03] <nozorro> chris__ wait a sec
[04:03] <_wall`> unsure
[04:03] <teekay_> good
[04:03] <sethk> MagicFab, perhaps, but ubuntu is distributed anywhere, and you sue people with money  :)
[04:04] <longwave> td13: can you press ctrl+alt+f1 and log in to a text console when that happens?
[04:04] <kakahn> i had a error: wine_0.9.19~winehq0~ubuntu~5.10-1_i386.deb not ok for amd64 system
[04:04] <sethk> kakahn, indeed it isn't.
[04:04] <sethk> kakahn, see that i386?
[04:04] <td13> longwave: i will try.,.. 2 secs
[04:04] <cliffd> longwave: fyi http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_make_use_of_Dynamic_Frequency_Scaling here is where you can set your speeds in proc
[04:04] <sethk> kakahn, you'll have to find one for amd
[04:04] <MagicFab> sethk, the locoteam in Colombia is worried that the event target govrnmt and NGOs with FUD.
[04:04] <cliffd> sys rather.
[04:04] <ladydoor> MagicFab: #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:04] <sethk> MagicFab, never happen
[04:04] <MagicFab> They are inquiring but I wanted to know what's the way to go about this
[04:05] <sethk> MagicFab, go to #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:05] <Nameeater> I want to apply a patch to grub and then install it as a .deb, I have done apt-get source grub and applied the patch, now how do I turn it into a .deb and install it?
[04:05] <mutk> MagicFab, Confront the people behind it . They may back down if questioned ?
[04:05] <nozorro> chris__ do a sudo 'apt-get --reinstall install gnome-panel', but pls try to deinstall beagle and any other non-standard stuff you think might interfere
[04:06] <td13> longwave: nope
[04:06] <chris__> removed beagle already
[04:06] <eyequeue> Nameeater, apt-get -b source grub && sudo dpkg -i grub*.deb
[04:06] <Nameeater> thanks :)
[04:06] <MagicFab> how is this off topic, give me a break!
[04:06] <nozorro> chris__ 'apt-get --reinstall install gnome-panel' , to be more correct ... and wait a bit more
[04:06] <chris__> thanks nozorro... will try that
[04:06] <eyequeue> MagicFab, that channel is for non-support issues
[04:07] <eyequeue> !offtopic
[04:07] <nozorro> chris__ to be on the safe side, do the same reinstall for the package gnome-panel-data
[04:07] <eyequeue> is the bot dead?
[04:07] <chris__> ok, thanks
[04:07] <td13> still cannot log on... nothing showing up....??
[04:07] <longwave> td13: how about if you select recovery mode from the grub boot menu, does that work or also crash?
[04:08] <td13> works.... gets me 2 term
[04:08] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[04:11] <td13> longwave: 2nd screen... which one?
[04:11] <cliffd> what a great feature
[04:11] <longwave> td13: what is the question it is asking?

[04:15] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto

[04:16] <Corporal_Dirge> Hello, anyone know why nautilus crashed when browsing a folder with a swf file in it?
[04:17] <longwave> rahsputin: use ALL : 192.168.2. to allow 192.168.2.x to connect

[04:18] <td13> longwave: rebooting

[04:18] <td13> longwave: I hope...
[04:19] <John[1] > I installed dapper per the install instrcutions.  Then I installed ubuntu desktop.  When it finished it did not ask me for a reboor or anyhting.  It just went back to the command prompt.
[04:19] <Corporal_Dirge> nozorro, How do I file a bug?
[04:19] <AustLaw> the nvidia tutorial says: If 3D acceleration still isn't working, be sure that you have the right version of linux-restricted-modules installed. It must match the version of the running kernel.

[04:19] <Fleebailey33> i want to install edgy
[04:19] <longwave> td13: you should be able to ctrl+alt+f1 to switch to a console even if X is broken, which i didn't quite understand why that wouldn't work before
[04:19] <Fleebailey33> by editing sources.list right ?
[04:20] <eyequeue> !edgy > Fleebailey33
[04:20] <Fleebailey33> but it says i don't have permissions ?
[04:20] <longwave> td13: hopefully not. if this doesn't work we can look at the X log to see what is happening when it tries to start
[04:20] <xange> can I not use the graphical installer?
[04:20] <Fleebailey33> well i need to
[04:20] <td13> longwave: was just black man... no idea but ty for your help

[04:20] <td13> longwave: hda1... force check
[04:20] <Fleebailey33> yeah
[04:21] <Fleebailey33> but how do i enable sudo through gedit ?
[04:21] <John[1] > what is the command to start the gnome desktop?
[04:21] <Fleebailey33> sudo gedit ?
[04:21] <UnmannedLeech> lol
[04:21] <longwave> Fleebailey33: "gksudo gedit"
[04:21] <jpjacobs> Fleebailey33, gksudo gedit is better
[04:21] <Fleebailey33> then i can save ?
[04:21] <eyequeue> Fleebailey33, read the links you have been given
[04:22] <Fleebailey33> gotcha
[04:22] <Fleebailey33> well you see i kinda cant
[04:22] <Fleebailey33> im stuck
[04:22] <nozorro> chris__ were you able to fix it?
[04:22] <chris__> nozorro... did reinstall of gnome panel
[04:22] <Fleebailey33> i have a limited ubuntu
[04:22] <chris__> no luck
[04:22] <Fleebailey33> eyequeue:
[04:22] <eod_punk> anyone know how to disable the password prompt when opening the laptop screen?
[04:22] <nozorro> chris __ :-(
[04:22] <Fleebailey33> NATUluas wont load amoung other things
[04:22] <chris__> everything fine, except I am still missing items from 'places' menu
[04:22] <Fleebailey33> why im going edgy
[04:23] <longwave> Fleebailey33: "gksudo gedit" will run gedit as root so you can edit any file on the filesystem
[04:23] <Fleebailey33> thanks so much
[04:23] <ladydoor> Fleebailey33: you think it's broken now, wait until you see edgy :-)
[04:23] <ladydoor> Fleebailey33: edgy is a development release at present
[04:24] <longwave> yeah i would not recommend trying edgy if you cannot get dapper to work right now :)
[04:24] <chris__> thanks for the help nozorro... its 4am I am gonna sleep!
[04:24] <John[1] > I'm stuck at the commnad prompt in dapper, what is the command to start gnome?

[04:29] <eyequeue> livingtm, read what the bot told you
[04:29] <Tek-> is there a way to delete the site from nautilus though so it doesnt mount it on startup
[04:29] <livingtm> eyequeue: Ah, new IRC client.. i see it now :-) thx
[04:29] <eyequeue> livingtm, np
[04:29] <Fleebailey33> humhumbug
[04:30] <Fleebailey33> so.
[04:30] <eod_punk> anyone know how to disable the password prompt when opening the laptop screen?
[04:30] <John[1] > any ideas on how I can get gnome to start on my dapper server?
[04:30] <eod_punk> (last time asking)
[04:30] <StoneNote> are you threatening me? </cornholio>
[04:30] <ladydoor> eod_punk: there may not be an easy way...it's a security feature
[04:31] <John[1] > I went though about a 10-15 min. update and install, or at least that is what is said on the screen.
[04:31] <eod_punk> ladydoor. thanks anyways i cing either.an't ind much for it when search
[04:31] <ladydoor> John[1] : aha, it's a server? seriously, try installing ubuntu-desktop, then do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[04:31] <John[1] > I have did that already
[04:32] <longwave> John[1] : so what happened after you started gdm?
[04:32] <KanRiNiN> hey guys, quick question:  Totem with GStreamer is really slow playing an xvid, but it's fine in Windows and Suse.  Should I recompile either totem or gstreamer to give it flags for my system?
[04:32] <ladydoor> John[1] : have you installed your graphiks drivers? search for nvidia or ati in aptitude
[04:33] <John[1] > no I don't think I have a grapic driver problem.
[04:33] <Xenguy> KanRiNiN: tried VLC, or gxine ?
[04:33] <ladydoor> John[1] : it's just that i don't think they'd be auto-installed in a server
[04:34] <KanRiNiN> OK.  I just hate having two backends installeed
[04:34] <Xenguy> KanRiNiN: you only need the libraries for each...
[04:34] <Xenguy> ... which isn't too expensive
[04:34] <John[1] > Is there any kind of test I can do to see if this is infact what it is?
[04:34] <KanRiNiN> alright.
[04:34] <ladydoor> lol
[04:34] <KanRiNiN> thanks
[04:34] <Xenguy> np
[04:35] <ladydoor> John[1] : search in aptitude for either nvidia or ati
[04:35] <ladydoor> John[1] : see if they're installed
[04:35] <amonkey> i'm looking for something that will compare the md5s of a directory of files to make sure they all match. perferably a gui, but whatever i can find. i don't need the exact errors, just the list of files.
[04:35] <swuboo> I've run into a problem trying to install Ubuntu on a new computer.
[04:36] <Paddy_EIRE> yaaaaay hey guys im back usin linux through windows nice one....at my uncles comp and forgot my livecd
[04:36] <swuboo> The LiveCD hangs while trying to boot.
[04:36] <Paddy_EIRE> cosmopod rocks
[04:37] <longwave> swuboo: desktop, laptop? what specs? did you try the cd check from the boot menu?
[04:37] <swuboo> Desktop.
[04:37] <swuboo> The CD check also hangs.
[04:37] <swuboo> But I burned it at 1x and it completed the check okay on another system.
[04:37] <swuboo> Specs, it's an AMD 64.
[04:38] <swuboo> I've tried with both the 32bit and 64bit versions of Ubuntu, both hang.
[04:38] <swuboo> I tried booting with quiet and splash commented out, and it hangs immediately after "Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ..."
[04:38] <jpjacobs> would it be safe to recompile a kernel on a system known to have a faulty spot in the RAM (because I want to recompile the ubuntu kernel with the bad ram patch applied)
[04:38] <Paddy_EIRE> swuboo: do u already have an os installed??
[04:38] <swuboo> Nope.  Brand new unformated hard drive.
[04:39] <swuboo> But the LiveCD doesn't even get far enough for the hard drive to matter.
[04:39] <JoseStefan> jpjacobs, it would be safe to say "no"
[04:39] <Paddy_EIRE> swuboo: i take it you tried the cd check
[04:39] <swuboo> Note that it's a very soft hang; I can still move the cursor and input text, but it simply never progresses past that point.
[04:39] <longwave> swuboo: did you try the "noapic" option in the boot command line?
[04:40] <swuboo> Yes.  I've also tried it with three different CDs, of two different versions, one of which is known good.
[04:40] <swuboo> I believe so, but I'll do that now.
[04:40] <longwave> swuboo: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/58143 may be relevant
[04:40] <John[1] > when I run the sudo spt-get install ubuntu-desktop, I get a error msg that says "failed to get http://yada yada and then it says e: failed to get soem archives maybe run apr-get update or try with fix--missing
[04:40] <longwave> swuboo: that suggests trying noacpi and/or maxcpus=1 may help
[04:40] <Paddy_EIRE> swuboo: how arre your drives cabled and jumpered
[04:40] <longwave> sorry, noapic
[04:41] <jpjacobs> JoseStefan, well, prolly gonna recompile it then on another machine. do i have to do anything else then to copy the whole /usr/src/ ? (like setting some crosscompiling options, because of a different CPU?)
[04:41] <swuboo> Trying it now.
[04:41] <swuboo> And yeah, that...
[04:41] <ladydoor> John[1] : ok...did you try sudo apt-get update?
[04:41] <swuboo> ...appears to be working.
[04:41] <John[1] > yes
[04:41] <John[1] > it appeared that is made the update
[04:42] <JoseStefan> jpjacobs, wouldnt know, just know that with bad ram nothing is "safe"
[04:42] <rocco> i've been working on a dhcp problem all day, trying to get my router to make my web server accessible to the outside world ... http://freeculture.homelinux.org  ... please click on the address and tell me if the web page is visible or not. thanx
[04:42] <swuboo> Yes, that appears to be working.
[04:42] <swuboo> Thanks, that appears to have been precisely the required step.
[04:43] <swuboo> Will I have to do that every time I want to boot, if I now do an install?
[04:43] <JoseStefan> rocco, No. That's more related to port forwarding, than DHCP
[04:43] <swuboo> Or will an actual hard drive install resolve this in and of itself?
[04:44] <rocco> JoseStefan, i know, but it seems that when i'm connecting to my router with dhcp, people can't even ping me!!!
[04:44] <nomin> The ongoing MythTV saga continues  http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/1000084
[04:44] <rocco> is the site accessible, by the way?
[04:44] <JoseStefan> no
[04:44] <longwave> swuboo: you can configure grub so that option is added by default when you boot
[04:44] <tritium> nomin: how so?
[04:44] <rocco> i have no idea as to what's going on
[04:45] <swuboo> I see.
[04:45] <longwave> swuboo: the bug report in launchpad suggests you may have problems with usb devices as well...
[04:45] <nomin> tritium:  mythtv is a challenge to install and configure
[04:45] <swuboo> Well, my keyboard and mouse are functioning normally.
[04:45] <swuboo> And those are the only USB devices I use.
[04:45] <tritium> nomin: yes
[04:46] <swuboo> Interestingly, the guy in the bug report has precisely the same CPU as I have.
[04:46] <longwave> swuboo: well, hopefully that was the only minor problem and the install will go smoothly :)
[04:46] <longwave> swuboo: same motherboard as well?
[04:46] <sky123> hi just installed ubuntu on an old  sun sparc netra t1.  Damn...never new it would be so easy...and it performs like a champ..
[04:46] <sky123> :)
[04:46] <swuboo> No, different motherboard.
[04:47] <swuboo> Lemme see if the chipset's the same, though.
[04:47] <sky123> Anyone know if there are zabbix packages available for ubuntu ??
[04:47] <swuboo> Huh.  Yeah, same chipset.
[04:47] <swuboo> I think.
[04:47] <swuboo> nVidia 570.
[04:47] <JoseStefan> !info zabbix
[04:47] <ubotu> Package zabbix does not exist in any distro I know
[04:47] <swuboo> His is nForce, mine's the SLI one.
[04:48] <sky123> JoeStefan: well there is my answer!...thanks
[04:48] <Jamminpotato> is anyone else surprised that thier isnt a fubuntu yet?
[04:48] <sky123> JoeStefan: will compile from source using build-essential
[04:48] <JoseStefan> sky123, it may still be a wrong answer
[04:48] <sky123> ;)
[04:48] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: there was actually a thread about it on the forums
[04:48] <JoseStefan> sky123, the info command requires knowing the pkg name
[04:48] <sky123> I think the so-called agent is available...but that is it..
[04:48] <dmsantam> Jamminpotato im still waiting for cubuntu
[04:49] <ladydoor> dmsantam: cubuntu?
[04:49] <dmsantam> CLI
[04:49] <dmsantam> :)
[04:49] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: personally *i'm* waiting for rpbuntu
[04:49] <ladydoor> (ratpoisonbuntu
[04:49] <ladydoor> )
[04:49] <swuboo> I stand corrected.
[04:49] <dmsantam> lol
[04:49] <eyequeue> dmsantam, install with the server cd in that case
[04:49] <swuboo> The fellow in the bug report and I have precisely the same CPU and precisely the same chipsets on our motherboards.
[04:50] <rocco> JoseStefan, would you mind pinging me to see if i'm accessible? the ip is <IP_ADDRESS>
[04:50] <dmsantam> eyequeue yes, but cubuntu is such a catchy name
[04:50] <dmsantam> ;)
[04:50] <sky123> there is a cubunutu...sort of...get a sun ultra sparc...and voila..you have to connect via console...no keyboard...no monitor..just a wonderful serial connection...aka a cli
[04:50] <TSP_X> hi! :D
[04:50] <dmsantam> sky123 yeah :)
[04:50] <JoseStefan> rocco, no response
[04:50] <TSP_X> XFCE replace my ubuntu uplash screen the one that i see when i shutdown the system how can i fix this?
[04:50] <rocco> jeeze, what the devil is it with this thing???
[04:51] <longwave> swuboo: you may well encounter the same USB bug, then. you can also try running "dmesg" at a terminal and check it for any error messages related to USB or IRQs.
[04:51] <hoehaver> can someone please tell me of a client namely gaim that I can send and receive webcam video
[04:51] <JoseStefan> rocco, you must have a pretty good firewall
[04:51] <hoehaver> if I have to pic between the two ide rather receve...
[04:51] <hoehaver> but can someone help me. also...i would need detail instructions on how to install it...ive tried to do it before and it didn't work.
[04:52] <rocco> the funny thin is that when i rebooted in windows, everything worked and i was pingable by a friend of mine
[04:52] <nige> I am trying to install proftp and its installed, but when I try and login via IE I cant, I dont get a login box. But from the command line I can open a connection and am asked for username / password.
[04:52] <nige> any ideas
[04:52] <rocco> i honestly can't figure this one out
[04:52] <Jamminpotato> ladydoor, rpbuntu?
[04:53] <Ademan> is there any application that lets you list all tasks you need to complete, and assign priorities and "due dates" ?
[04:53] <Ademan> specifically for me to organize my homework
[04:53] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: as i said, ratpoisonbuntu :-)
[04:53] <tritium> Ademan: evolution includes a task list
[04:53] <TSP_X> xubuntu destop replace my ubuntu uplash screen the one that i see when i shutdown the system how can i fix this?
[04:53] <Ademan> with priorities and such?
[04:53] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: no special gui tools or anything allowed
[04:53] <Ademan> i've been using evolution, but i haven't gotten that deep
[04:54] <Jamminpotato> oh what is ratpoison, you always talk aobut it
[04:54] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: it's the minimalist, evilest window manager :-)
[04:54] <rocco> does ubuntu come equipped with some sort of built-in firewall that i am not aware of???
[04:54] <Jamminpotato> ladydoor, more minimal than fluxbox?
[04:54] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: it's slightly under-advertised in eyecandy-iferous ubuntu
[04:55] <TSP_X> where is the uplash configuration?
[04:55] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: nongnu.org/ratpoison
[04:56] <Jamminpotato> www.nongnu.org/ratpoison
[04:56] <longwave> Ademan: you may want to try "planner", a project management application
[04:56] <rocco> JoseStefan, could there be a firewall that i don't know anything about. is there a way to find out?
[04:56] <Ademan> longwave: thanks i'll cehck it out
[04:56] <AustLaw`> when I press ctrl+alt+f1 and go to terminal, then ctrl+alt+f7 to return to gnome it turns to a black screen that I cannot exit. I have to reboot
[04:56] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: basically, i think that ubuntu's focus is often too much  on eyecandy and gui tools...so i try to advertise for minimalism every now and then in the hope it'll catch on :-)
[04:56] <AustLaw`> anyone know why?
[04:56] <JoseStefan> rocco, start with your network hardware
[04:57] <swuboo> Alright; thank you very much folks.  That was extremely helpful.
[04:57] <Jamminpotato> ladydoor, xfce and flux are pretty minimal ratpoision is jsut extreme
[04:57] <longwave> AustLaw`: what video card/X driver?
[04:57] <ladydoor> Jamminpotato: fluxbox can be pretty eyecandyful
[04:57] <Jamminpotato> like 1995 called it wants it window manager back man
[04:57] <hoehaver> PLEASE
[04:57] <ladydoor> !shout
[04:57] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[04:58] <hoehaver> a client for cam support. for yahoo
[04:58] <AustLaw`> nvidia geforce fx 5950
[04:58] <longwave> !webcam
[04:58] <eyequeue> AustLaw`, try others than f7
[04:58] <hoehaver> WELL you can read upper case too
[04:58] <ubotu> webcam is now easy to install on Linux; instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras
[04:58] <AustLaw`> I did the nvidia-glx drivers in the packages
[04:58] <Tonren> What packages do I install to have Perl support?
[04:58] <cracka12> how do you list all the harddrives you have installed
[04:58] <hoehaver> plus its stupid to think uppercase is 'shouting'
[04:58] <hoehaver> that's stupid
[04:58] <rocco> JoseStefan, i practically rule that one out now, beacuase like i said i tried rebooting in windows and a friend of mine could ping me and port 80 was accessible too, so i guess i can get a website through there with no problem. i don't think it's the router
[04:58] <eyequeue> AustLaw`, mine moves to f10
[04:58] <AustLaw`> once I press F7, I cannot return to any of the terminals, stays black
[04:58] <sethk> Tonren, perl, to start with
[04:58] <jpjacobs> Tonren, think that's included in the base install
[04:58] <AustLaw`> f10 does nothing
[04:59] <tritium> hoehaver: calm down please
[04:59] <cracka12> what command will show you all the harddrives you have on a server
[04:59] <JoseStefan> rocco, do you have the same IP in windows and linux?
[04:59] <eyequeue> hoehaver, that is the convention and insulting us won't change that
[04:59] <Tonren> sethk: i am shamed
[04:59] <Skuz`> cracka12 are they being used? if so use mount
[04:59] <rocco> no. dynamic ip
[04:59] <sethk> Tonren, there are bunches of support packages as well, but that's where you start
[04:59] <Tonren> sethk: Usually it's not that simple.  You know, for "Java" it's like libsun-java-j2re-mocha-latte-dpkg-debian-humbajumba
[04:59] <JoseStefan> rocco, you might need to have the same IP on both counts
[04:59] <sethk> Tonren, I'd install perl-doc as well.
[05:00] <cracka12> Skuz` well im using an IBM server and i have put in 5 currently, techinically i could put in 9 but, its not picking up anything after sdc
[05:00] <jake1> how can i watch quicktime videos that are on websites in Ubuntu
[05:00] <jake1> ?
[05:00] <Skuz`> lmfao mocha latte
[05:00] <hoehaver> I am calm everyone
[05:00] <sethk> Tonren, quite true.  I expected to find a version number in the package name, but for once it is sensible
[05:00] <John[1] > when I run the desktop install for ubuntu I'm getting soem errors that says file ont found on the cd.
[05:00] <hoehaver> really I am
[05:00] <hoehaver> plus I didn't insult anyone.
[05:00] <hoehaver> you took something personal you shouldn't have
[05:00] <Tonren> John[1] : Did you check the CD for errors?
[05:00] <AustLaw`> what confuses me is that it loads ubuntu fine the first time
[05:00] <tritium> hoehaver: okay, so drop it
[05:00] <John[1] > It ran a few monemts ago with no errors
[05:00] <AustLaw`> but once I go terminal, then back, i cant get out of the black screen
[05:00] <longwave> AustLaw`: do you know which NVxx chipset you have on your card, or which model it is? there are a few relevant bugs in launchpad but they are chipset-specific
[05:01] <Tonren> hoehaver: You may be calm... but are you a bad enough dude to save the president from ninjas?
[05:01] <AustLaw`> it is the asus geforce 5950
[05:01] <david__> Hello!  I installed a broken package (a Brother printer driver) and now apt is broken.  It keeps saying I need to reinstall the package, but the installation from the .deb always fails.  How do I tell it to remove what it can and ignore the rest?
[05:01] <cracka12> Skuz` well im using an IBM server and i have put in 5 currently, techinically i could put in 9 but, its not picking up anything after sdc
[05:01] <AustLaw`> not sure which chipset exactly off hand
[05:01] <hoehaver> tonren maybe
[05:01] <madman__> does any one know where the Screensaver images are stored ?
[05:01] <mutk> hoehaver, Upper case is well known in IRC has meaning 'SHOUTING'. It is considered bad manners. Now that you know this, move..
[05:01] <hoehaver> it depends
[05:01] <mutk> on...
[05:02] <Tonren> david__: Try sudo apt-get install -f
[05:02] <AustLaw`> I have the box, it says that it is the ASUS V9980 Ultra card
[05:02] <longwave> AustLaw`: this is a known bug in the nvidia drivers
[05:02] <longwave> AustLaw`: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/58143
[05:02] <sethk> david__, try the easy way first, which is to run synaptic and try the repair operations available on the menus
[05:02] <AustLaw`> when I installed the drivers, I had to change the "nv" to read "nvidia" in the file
[05:02] <John[1] > Maybe I need to edit my source.list or something?
[05:02] <sethk> AustLaw`, nv is the open source nvidia driver.  nvidia is the proprietary one
[05:03] <longwave> AustLaw`: there is a workaround: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove the word "splash" from the line for the kernel you use
[05:03] <david__> This is the error synaptic gives: E: The package mfc4800lpr needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
[05:03] <david__> E: Internal error opening cache (1). Please report.
[05:04] <CokeNCode> ok, getting an error when i open tvtime 'cannot open capture device /dev/video0'
[05:04] <John[1] > how would I get and install webmin on my dapper
[05:04] <CokeNCode> i'm trying to view my tvtuner card
[05:04] <CokeNCode> what should i change the capture device to ?
[05:04] <Rookie-> !webmin
[05:04] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[05:04] <david__> Also, I tried purging the package with dpkg and with apt-get, as well as force-all, remove, and --ignore-missing.  Nothing helps
[05:04] <YeTr2> I'm trying to configure Bmy usb joystick to use VisualBoy Advance, however the application I'm told to use segfaults when trying to run it. Does anyone know of a proper way to configure VisualBoy Advance to use my joystick?
[05:05] <dbzero> In an attempt to make VNC connections to :0 work correctly, I seem to have screwed up the VNC password.  I've used vncpasswd and deleted my ~/.vnc/passwd file, but no luck.  Any suggestions?
[05:05] <John[1] > Ok, I'm stuck on trying to get ubuntu desktop installed with no luck, this is a mad house!!!
[05:05] <sethk> dbzero, try deleting the entire ~/.vnc directory.
[05:05] <tecta> you don't have to download a cd to update the distro each time, right?
[05:05] <ladydoor> tecta: nope!
[05:06] <david__> tecta: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:06] <tecta> like.. apt-get dist upgrade or something?
[05:06] <CokeNCode> John[1] , yeh ... Ubuntu is now officially the most popular linux distro for desktop use ... twice as popular as its nearest competitor ... debian
[05:06] <AustLaw`> ok, i removed the "splash"
[05:06] <ladydoor> tecta: pretty much
[05:06] <longwave> david__: where did that package initially come from? it's not in the default repos
[05:06] <tecta> ladydoor, what's the diff between updating the distro and all the pkg's?
[05:06] <tritium> CokeNCode: that has been the case for over a year now
[05:06] <John[1] > Is there anyway I can get one on one help in here?
[05:06] <AustLaw`> longwave: what does removing the splash do exactly?
[05:06] <CokeNCode> tritium, it wasn't 'twice as popular' as debian for over a year
[05:06] <CokeNCode> usage is up
[05:06] <ladydoor> tecta: because before doing the dist-upgrade you change which repositories you're looking in
[05:06] <ladydoor> tecta: permanently
[05:07] <david__> longwave, brother's printer drivers for linux website.  I was trying to install a driver for my printer.  It came in a debian package.  Would you like the URL of the site it is from?
[05:07] <longwave> AustLaw`: there is a conflict between the splash screen and the nvidia glx driver; they currently cannot run together on ubuntu, it seems
[05:07] <maple> anyone here a big fan of MS and windows?
[05:07] <tecta> ladydoor, oh ok.. so do dist-upgrade first?
[05:07] <RodrigoX> is ubuntu easily than Fedora?
[05:07] <ladydoor> tecta: wat're you trying to do?
[05:07] <AustLaw`> longwave: it did fix the problem, thanks
[05:07] <longwave> AustLaw`: all you will lose is the logo on boot, instead you will get text scrolling past until X loads
[05:07] <tecta> ladydoor, well i have a old ubuntu cd, and don't wanna download a new one...
[05:07] <AustLaw`> longwave: oh yes I remember the little loading splash, the text is more than fine
[05:07] <JoseStefan> maple, i doubt you will find "big" fans, users maybe...
[05:07] <AustLaw`> thanks
[05:07] <Rookie-> maple - all systems are good, even m$ - all depence on what any are looking for
[05:07] <dbzero> sethk, No luck with rm -rf .vnc
[05:08] <ladydoor> tecta: aha. well, what you'll do is edit your /etc/apt/sources.list so that instead of "breezy" or "hoary" it says "dapper"
[05:08] <sethk> dbzero, did you try setting the password?  set it again to whatever it is supposed to be?
[05:08] <longwave> david__: have you tried downloading the .deb again and installing it with dpkg -i file.deb ?
[05:08] <ladydoor> tecta: you'll see what i'm talking about
[05:08] <david__> longwave, I have
[05:08] <david__> longwave, 3 times
[05:08] <sethk> dbzero, there must be another file somewhere; it can be found with strace.  possibly with lsof if you are lucky
[05:08] <tecta> ladydoor, alright... then just do apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[05:08] <longwave> david__: and apt still complains with that error about the cache?
[05:08] <delaney> is anyone aware of a program command or application that will inform me of the current refresh rate my monitor is running at
[05:08] <delaney> im in xubuntu
[05:09] <ladydoor> tecta: first, do sudo apt-get update
[05:09] <Skuz`> lol @ CokeNCode
[05:09] <ladydoor> tecta: then do sudo apt-get upgrade
[05:09] <david__> longwave, the .deb itself is broken.  The server's copy alway fails
[05:09] <ernie> hey i can't seem to be able to log in as root
[05:09] <ladydoor> !sudo
[05:09] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[05:09] <tecta> ladydoor, so apt-get update updates all the pkgs, then apt-get upgrade updates the mirrors?
[05:09] <Rookie-> ernie - sudo su -
[05:09] <kjm> !sudo >ernie
[05:09] <tritium> Rookie-: sudo -i
[05:09] <ernie> tryed it. pass isn't working
[05:09] <ladydoor> ernie: if you want, you can also set the root password with sudo passwd root
[05:09] <albacker> guys can someone help me ? i cant isntall libgtk2.0-dev : http://rafb.net/paste/results/uKzTqQ66.html
[05:09] <sky123> !cacti
[05:09] <ubotu> cacti: Frontend to rrdtool for monitoring systems and services. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.8.6h-1ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 899 kB, installed size 3428 kB
[05:10] <ernie> hmm
[05:10] <shibathedog> Can anyone help me mount an NTFS Drive?
[05:10] <ernie> i'm tryin to get alien to work
[05:10] <tecta> shibathedog, mount -t ntfs /path/to/drive /path/to/mount/drive
[05:11] <shibathedog> thank you i will try that
[05:11] <ladydoor> tecta: no...sudo apt-get update downloads the latest list of packages (the most up-to-date one available in the repositories in the /etc/apt/sources.list)
[05:11] <david__> ernie: try this:  sudo alien -d RPM_TO_CONVERT_GOES_HERE
[05:11] <Skuz`> ernie type sudo passwd
[05:11] <Skuz`> then enter your new password for root
[05:11] <Rookie-> tritium - both works
[05:11] <ladydoor> tecta: and then sudo apt-get upgrade upgrades any packages
[05:11] <CokeNCode> man, in here reminds me of Bruce Almighty tonight ...
[05:11] <CokeNCode> my word
[05:11] <shibathedog> Also if i format a drive as FAT32, will Ubuntu automatically detect it and be able to use it with write access and everything?
[05:11] <tritium> Rookie-: yes, but -i is preferable
[05:11] <ladydoor> tecta: and sudo apt-get dist-upgrade upgrades your whole system
[05:11] <tecta> ladydoor, oh ok i see
[05:11] <Rookie-> get path with -i ?
[05:11] <ladydoor> CokeNCode: explain?
[05:11] <ernie> sudo alien -d
[05:11] <tritium> ernie: which package are you trying to use alien on?
[05:12] <longwave> david__: a thread on the ubuntu forums suggests "sudo dpkg --remove --force-depends --force-remove-reinstreq mfc4800lpr" *might* fix the cache error
[05:12] <ernie> ooo that poped up nicely
[05:12] <CokeNCode> ladydoor, bruce almighty, where everyone was asking bruce for help at the same time. (did you see the movie?)
[05:12] <ccahoon> hi
[05:12] <ladydoor> CokeNCode: no
[05:12] <dibblego> is there something that explains putting ubuntu desktop on a flash drive?
[05:12] <ccahoon> What do people do around here
[05:12] <flaccid> mount returns /dev/hda2 on /mnt/flaccid type vfat (rw,uid=1000,gid=1000) yet, the mask on each file is 500.root (not flaccid.flaccid) why is this?
[05:12] <ernie> i'm tryin to install limewire.rpm
[05:12] <CokeNCode> ladydoor, ahhhhh, ok ... well, i think you'd have to watch the movie to understand
[05:12] <ccahoon> ahhh
[05:12] <david__> longwave, that didn't work (just tried it)
[05:12] <ladydoor> CokeNCode: aha. i'll pass, but thank you :-)
[05:12] <dmsantam> ernie don't do that
[05:12] <dmsantam> ernie apt-get install frostwire
[05:12] <ernie> y?
[05:12] <tritium> !limewire > ernie
[05:12] <ccahoon> Who is ernie
[05:13] <dbzero> sethk, thanks for the pointer.  I don't have enough brains left in the tank to figure out strace tonight, but I'll take a look in the morning.
[05:13] <dibblego> !limewire > dibblego
[05:13] <david__> longwave, this is the error given to me by dpkg: /var/lib/dpkg/info/mfc4800lpr.postrm: line 3: /etc/init.d/lpd: No such file or directory
[05:13] <ladydoor> ccahoon: someone on the channel
[05:13] <ernie> i do'nt wanna use frostwire, its really unstable
[05:13] <tritium> ernie: see the URL I had ubotu sen dyou
[05:13] <tritium> send you, even
[05:13] <dmsantam> ernie its no less stable than limewire
[05:13] <dmsantam> !limewire
[05:13] <ernie> oh must of missed up
[05:13] <ubotu> limewire is a popular P2P client running on the Gnutella network. To get it running, install !java first, then download Limewire from http://www.limewire.com/LimeWireSoftOther and finally run runLime.sh. Consider !FrostWire as an alternative.
[05:13] <sethk> david__, that's ok if there was an incomplete install of lpd
[05:13] <albacker> guys can someone help me ? i cant isntall libgtk2.0-dev : http://rafb.net/paste/results/uKzTqQ66.html
[05:13] <dmsantam> !FrostWire
[05:13] <ubotu> frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire.  For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire
[05:13] <Abst> !java > Abst
[05:13] <kjm> !patience albacker
[05:13] <Abst> !frostwire > Abst
[05:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about patience albacker - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:14] <kjm> !patience > albacker
[05:14] <Abst> !patience > albacker
[05:14] <Abst> Oops
[05:14] <ernie> no i do got frostwire but for soem reason its really unstable
[05:14] <kjm> beat you :)
[05:14] <david__> sethk, so then if I reinstall lpd I will be able to uninstall mfc4800lprL
[05:14] <sethk> david__, it's worth a try.  I can't be sure, of course, that there is only one problem
[05:14] <ccahoon> hi
[05:14] <ladydoor> ccahoon: did you have a problem that you needed help with?
[05:15] <ccahoon> sup people
[05:15] <ernie> al right what i do with that file, i'm a noob
[05:15] <ccahoon> no
[05:15] <ladydoor> ccahoon: #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:15] <ccahoon> wat is a noob
[05:15] <ccahoon> actuallly i need help
[05:15] <ladydoor> ccahoon: #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:15] <ladydoor> ccahoon: that's a sudden change
[05:15] <ccahoon> on topic
[05:15] <ccahoon> yah
[05:15] <longwave> david__: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1427262&postcount=18 is for jedit, but the problem is very similar to yours
[05:15] <ccahoon> umm
[05:15] <tritium> !enter
[05:15] <ubotu> Please don't use the "enter" key as punctuation! It spams the channel and can be annoying.
[05:15] <shawnr_> are there any really good Java channels?
[05:15] <albacker> kjm, Abst well i have patience, as long as i know that someone is going to help me -_- or at least try to. i can't install libgtk2.0-dev that's terrible.. it means i can't compile GTK- packages :S
[05:15] <dibblego> shawnr_, not on freenode
[05:16] <ccahoon> wat other channel is there people on it
[05:16] <shawnr_> dibblego, which net ?
[05:16] <ladydoor> ccahoon: #ubuntu-offtopic!
[05:16] <dibblego> shawnr_, I prefer dal.net
[05:16] <shawnr_> good java rooms ? im guessing #java
[05:16] <kjm> albacker : Do you think that either (1) maybe people here don't know the answer, or (2) maybe helping others and you have to wait your turn?  Flooding the channel with the same request is rude, and annoying.
[05:16] <dibblego> shawnr_, right
[05:16] <david__> longwave, I'll try that all now
[05:16] <ccahoon> ladydoor im just asking
[05:16] <dibblego> shawnr_, #ubuntu-offtopic if you wish to discuss further
[05:17] <shawnr_> nope
[05:17] <ladydoor> ccahoon: well, i tried to tell you that before. then you tell me you do want help finding a channel to chat on.
[05:17] <ccahoon> yes i do
[05:17] <ladydoor> ccahoon: ok. go there. this one is for people with broken computers :-)
[05:18] <longwave> albacker: put your sources.list in a pastebin, it looks like you have conflicting packages available
[05:18] <ccahoon> okay where is there a channel that have people o it
[05:18] <ccahoon> lady door
[05:18] <albacker> longwave, : http://rafb.net/paste/results/W7CHja56.html
[05:19] <ladydoor> ccahoon: i don't know.
[05:19] <tritium> ladydoor: or questions related to ubuntu
[05:19] <ccahoon> ok dont have to be so rude
[05:19] <ladydoor> tritium: yea
[05:19] <ladydoor> ccahoon: i'm not trying to be rude
[05:19] <tritium> ccahoon: nobody is being rude.  Just helpful
[05:19] <xXErnieXx> hmm i don't knwo what to do all ive been dion is live installs
[05:20] <ladydoor> ccahoon:  i'm just rying to tell you which ubuntu channel is appropriate for non-support issues
[05:20] <sethk> xXErnieXx, is that a question?
[05:20] <longwave> albacker: that looks ok, have you run apt-get update recently?
[05:20] <albacker> longwave, yeah
[05:20] <xXErnieXx> sethk, uhh sry
[05:21] <ccahoon> ok so lady door im going to stay here
[05:21] <albacker> longwave, im reruning it to be sure though.. i bet that's not the reason of the problem :|
[05:21] <xXErnieXx> i'm tryin to install limewire and i'm tryin to lean how to manually install programs with out auto
[05:21] <ladydoor> ccahoon: sweet.
[05:21] <ccahoon> dont be so rude to though cuz i will be rude back
[05:22] <ladydoor> ccahoon: it was never my intention to be rude
[05:22] <albacker> longwave, nope. might it conflict with any other package i got from backports ?
[05:22] <cafuego> Being rude will get one removed from the channel, so it's just not clever.
[05:22] <ladydoor> ccahoon: i'm just trying to tell you that this is a support channel
[05:22] <ccahoon> while you were being rude
[05:22] <ladydoor> ccahoon: ok, i'm sorry
[05:22] <cafuego> Either in retaliation or not.
[05:22] <kjm> could we all take the "rude" conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic?
[05:22] <tritium> good idea
[05:22] <ccahoon> OK im soory
[05:23] <ccahoon> duh your sorry
[05:23] <longwave> albacker: possibly; did you install any X, library or development packages from there?
[05:23] <Xenguy> !CoC
[05:23] <ubotu> The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[05:23] <Xenguy> ccahoon: read that
[05:23] <ccahoon> read what
[05:23] <longwave> albacker: also, what does "apt-cache show libgtk2.0-dev" and similar for the other packages listed in the apt error message show?
[05:23] <albacker> longwave, some XGL libs.
[05:23] <Xenguy> !CoC > ccahoon
[05:23] <tapio> Can I safely remove all packages in /var/cache/apt/archives?
[05:23] <ccahoon> yes
[05:24] <tritium> ccahoon: that was uncalled for.  ladydoor was being kind to you.
[05:24] <Xenguy> heh
[05:24] <albacker> longwave, removeing the XGL libs might help ?
[05:24] <Xenguy> he quit
[05:24] <cafuego> tapio: Yup 'sudo apt-get clean'
[05:24] <Flannel> tapio: you can use apt-get to do it too! (clean)
[05:24] <JoseStefan> ok guys, it's in the past now ------------------------------
[05:24] <tapio> Thanks, guys :)
[05:24] <cafuego> The past is _so_ rude.
[05:24] <ladydoor> lol
[05:24] <albacker> longwave, ill go to sleep now. thnx for helping. ill see what can i do tomorrow. 5:30Am here :S

[05:44] <brendonjt> kia ora one and all,  is therea linux utility  that will tell me what my hdd's are runing at ie dma 33/66/100 etc
[05:44] <xXErnieXx> really stable
[05:44] <Wavesonics> yes as soon as my sounds begins working reliably i will be very very happy w\ this OS
[05:44] <xXErnieXx> i <3 stablebility
[05:44] <madman__> Wavesonics: also have a look at volume control
[05:45] <Wavesonics> system volume is all the way up, is there a seperate mute some where?
[05:45] <phreq> brendonjt: hdparm?
[05:45] <phreq> Dunno if that'll help.
[05:46] <ladydoor> Wavesonics: there may be a PCM channel as well
[05:46] <brendonjt> phreq:  just type that in the terminal
[05:46] <madman__> Wavesonics: there will on the apps, do you see the little speeker at the top on the panel ?
[05:46] <ladydoor> Wavesonics: see if there's a volume manager maybe
[05:46] <Wavesonics> besides (in gnome) the voume control up top, where are there sounds controls?
[05:46] <phreq> Try man hdparm first, the hdparm command itself has a lot of options.
[05:46] <xXErnieXx> how do i get permission to write in the /bin/ folder
[05:47] <ladydoor> Wavesonics: try this:  sudo apt-get install alsamixer, run it in a terminal, and then see if there's any muted channels
[05:47] <Wavesonics> ho i may have found something
[05:47] <JoseStefan> xXErnieXx, use "sudo"
[05:47] <xXErnieXx> k
[05:47] <ladydoor> Wavesonics: sweet
[05:47] <madman__> Wavesonics:  sound control / applications/sound and vido
[05:47] <phreq> sudo hdparm /dev/hda (for the first disk of the first header, for IDE) will some overviewy stuff.
[05:47] <Wavesonics> cant find package
[05:47] <phreq> Has anyone else tried to install the en_US ISO-8859-1 locale?
[05:48] <xXErnieXx> al right i'll come back tomarrow night i got school
[05:48] <xXErnieXx> peace
[05:48] <Wavesonics> do i need to restart after changing the default soundcard?
[05:48] <xXErnieXx> oh nad thx for da help
[05:48] <ladydoor> Wavesonics: shouldn't ought to
[05:48] <madman__> Wavesonics: what package u looking for ?
[05:48] <Wavesonics> found the prob
[05:49] <Wavesonics> it is selecting my onboard sound as default
[05:49] <Wavesonics> i changed it to my SB Live card but it hasnt changed over
[05:49] <phreq> I wouldn't think so. In Linux usually the only thing you have to restart for is a kernal change.
[05:49] <Wavesonics> any ideas?
[05:49] <madman__> Wavesonics: good for you, good job
[05:49] <brendonjt> phreq:  cheers for that  it comes back as using dma =1(on)  but i want to know using dma what
[05:49] <phreq> brendonjt: Okay, one sec...
[05:49] <Wavesonics> man i have Compiz running on here, its so d@mn sweet
[05:50] <letsgfuad> what irc client is everyone using?
[05:51] <jpjacobs> nirc (naim) !
[05:51] <jbroome_> irssi
[05:51] <phreq> xchat
[05:51] <kjm> !offtopic letsgfuad
[05:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about offtopic letsgfuad - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:51] <kjm> !offtopic > letsgfuad
[05:51] <urug> #ubuntu-pl
[05:51] <brendonjt> xchat
[05:51] <madman__> !sound
[05:51] <ubotu> If sound is not working, first try system -> prefrences -> multimedia system selector change it to alsa. If you still have problems then look at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DebuggingSoundProblems
[05:51] <phreq> It doesn't appear that hdparm gives dma speed.
[05:52] <brendonjt> hmm true just looked but thank you  very usefull utility
[05:52] <madman__> Wavesonics: did you get that from the bot
[05:52] <Skuz`> mirc
[05:52] <phreq> Aye, it is, especially when Ubuntu tries to install without DMA on. :P
[05:52] <Wavesonics> yes looking into it now, thank you
[05:52] <Xenguy> kjm: please knock it off with the constant 'off-topic' notices
[05:53] <tjb891> does anyone know if installing the tor and privoxy packages changes any setting?
[05:53] <Wavesonics> I dont see "Multimedia system selector" in the pref menu though
[05:53] <kjm> Xenguy : I'm sorry, but it is hard to follow support chat when people dont follow the CoC, it is that simple really.
[05:53] <madman__> tjb891: just your browser i think
[05:54] <tjb891> so it will put firefox on tor even when i don't want to use it?
[05:54] <tritium> kjm: but it ends up spamming the channel even more
[05:54] <Xenguy> kjm: OK.  On the other hand, if that mechanism is over-used, it ceases to be as effective...
[05:54] <DanaG> I have a message on boot that doesn't show up in dmesg, and it scrolls by too fast.
[05:54] <brendonjt> phreq:  yeah as i think ubuntu  was setting my drive at dma66  when it should have been 33  i went in to my bios and set it for lba instead of auto
[05:54] <madman__> Wavesonics: have a look at the menu editor
[05:54] <DanaG> How can I pause the boot?
[05:54] <jpjacobs> DanaG, could help if you push scrollock
[05:54] <brendonjt> phreq:  so it looks like it should be using 33 now as the bios says it is
[05:54] <DanaG> It scrolls way beyond that.
[05:55] <brendonjt> DanaG: press the pause/break key at boot time
[05:55] <madman__> tjb891: you can set-up to do or not to do
[05:55] <cliffd> can anyone tell me whats playing the music that ba dum when I login? id like no sounds what so ever. I turned sounds off in gnome but that drum sound still plays when I log in. thanks.
[05:55] <Xenguy> kjm: personally I find that I could not survive IRC on any channel without being able to /ignore nicks for 30 minutes at a time (usually they are gone by the time 30 minutes expires)
[05:55] <DanaG> Pause doesn't do anything for me.
[05:55] <D-boy> hello all
[05:55] <kjm> Xenguy : I usually use that mechanism, but in a support channel, I think it's prudent to be able to read all peoples chat in case I can be of use.
[05:56] <Wavesonics> um. wheres the menu editor?
[05:56] <madman__> tjb891: tor doc will have all that for you to set-up firefox
[05:56] <phreq> I'm guessing it's gdm, cliffd
[05:56] <JoseStefan> Wavesonics, try right click, edit
[05:56] <phreq> cliffd: Go to system -> admin -> login
[05:56] <tjb891> thx
[05:56] <AustLaw> how do I get the little "minimize everything to desktop" button back?
[05:56] <kjm> Xenguy : anyways, I see your point, so I will refrain from excessive  !msg in the public chat......
[05:56] <tritium> AustLaw: add it to your panel
[05:56] <phreq> cliffd: then Accessibility, disable the sounds
[05:57] <madman__> Wavesonics: in the applications meun
[05:57] <AustLaw> ya, but I dont see it in the list of things to add
[05:57] <Xenguy> kjm: given that it is not a perfect world, I recommend '/ignore -replies -time 1800 <nick>' occasionally :-)
[05:57] <cliffd> phreq: thanks.
[05:57] <AustLaw> nm, i just didnt look hard enough
[05:57] <AustLaw> i see it now
[05:57] <phreq> cliffd: De nada.
[05:57] <kjm> Austlaw : should be under "Desktop and Windows"
[05:57] <Xenguy> cafuego: as you well know by now, the currency of IRC is attention (anyone is easily /ignored :-)
[05:58] <AustLaw> is it possible to say, but a little transparent clock on my desktop?
[05:58] <bruenig> AustLaw, gdesklets can do that
[05:58] <AustLaw> k will look it up
[05:58] <bruenig> !info gdesklets
[05:58] <ubotu> gdesklets: Architecture for desktop applets. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.35.3-1ubuntu3 (dapper), package size 465 kB, installed size 2448 kB
[05:58] <ladydoor> austlLaw you might try gdesklets
[05:58] <ACU> hi guys, If I want to capture realmedia video webstream what applications are the best
[05:59] <Xenguy> kjm: cheers
[05:59] <kjm> heh, this is weird.  I'm watching Lotr the two towers, and each time I get to the scence where Aragon falls off the cliff with the Dog.....Movie player gives me a warning : Source seems encrypted....play an DVD without libdvdcss.
[05:59] <kjm> Xenguy : :)
[05:59] <jbroome_> the encryption lives in the dog
[05:59] <DanaG> aah: fsck.vfat
[06:00] <DanaG> That's what I need
[06:00] <kjm> But, the DVD plays fine up to like 1.5 hours in
[06:00] <AustLaw> I have seen screenshots of osX looking menus, are those gdesklets?
[06:00] <cafuego> kjm: layer Transition may trigger slight annoyance?
[06:00] <ltR20^^> Hello, My friend switched to UBUNTU. He has AOL but he cant connect to the internet cause he has to DIAL in..how does he do this?
[06:00] <D-boy> hi guys newbie here
[06:00] <ladydoor> hello
[06:00] <DanaG> AustLaw: look up Cairo Clock, also.
[06:00] <bruenig> AustLaw, depends, gdesklets can do that. I wasn't too impressed with it but then again I hate that menu.
[06:00] <kjm> cafuego : huh ?
[06:00] <D-boy> i need of help with ubuntu v5.1
[06:01] <bruenig> AustLaw, also xfce has that as an option for one of its panels so you might have been seeing that
[06:01] <D-boy> anyone kind enough?
[06:01] <AustLaw> I dont really like it either, was just wondering
[06:01] <cafuego> kjm: Mebbe the dvd player has an issue with the VOB file it switches to at that time.
[06:01] <AustLaw> ok
[06:01] <JoseStefan> !anyone
[06:01] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:01] <bruenig> !ask
[06:01] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:01] <kjm> ah, but I have libdvdcss2 installed.....so, I don't know what the problem could be?
[06:02] <ladydoor> kjm: in my experience
[06:02] <Snake> I Need someone that knos more about ubuntu than me...anyone? :-P
[06:02] <brendonjt> kjm:  sounds tricky,  does it play ok  in other dvd players
[06:02] <bruenig> !anyone
[06:02] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:02] <ladydoor> kjm: sometimes a dvd that's scratched or even smudged will be misread with an error
[06:02] <D-boy> ok then i just installed ubuntu v5.1 and the x server does not seem to run properly
[06:02] <cafuego> kjm: The movie is split into a set of 1Gb (or 2GB) files on the disc. I suspect the problem may be with one of those files; the encryption may be not the same as for the others.
[06:02] <bruenig> D-boy what specifically about xserver is wrong
[06:02] <D-boy> so the login mode is all in the terminal
[06:03] <kjm> brendonjt : yes, had no problems with it.....ladydoor : ah....I will check that.
[06:03] <bruenig> D-boy, after you login from the terminal does it take you to gnome?
[06:03] <maxblack> anyone have trouble with your Qt libraries not being found when installing Karamba, or really, any other app?
[06:03] <cafuego> kjm: or maybe it's the end of the disc, the movie continues on disc 2?
[06:03] <D-boy> it says the config is wrong
[06:03] <D-boy> no it does not
[06:03] <Snake> first off, I want to map my right shift key to be a "space" key. Then I want to fix my ubuntu to launch amarok when I press my "Start Media" button, thats currently set up for rythmbox
[06:03] <Snake> can anyone help?
[06:03] <bruenig> D-boy, try startx
[06:03] <kjm> cafuego : But, surely if the player can decrypt the first GB it will the 2nd etc. etc.?  No, all on one disc.
[06:03] <ACU> ubotu: figure of style difficult to implement: 1) what applications can I use to capture realmedia webstream 2)what text interface tool can I use to connect as a root to a remote server (to modify apache let's say)
[06:03] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about figure of style difficult to implement: 1) what applications can I use to capture realmedia webstream 2)what text interface tool can I use to connect as a root to a remote server (to modify apache let's say) - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:03] <D-boy> whats is that im a newbie
[06:03] <guest_><EMAIL_ADDRESS>[06:03] <bruenig> ACU, that is a bot
[06:04] <ladydoor> D-boy: it's a terminal command
[06:04] <cafuego> kjm: That depends; it might be worth checking the encryption in each of the individual files.
[06:04] <bruenig> D-boy, type "startx" in the terminal when you get it
[06:04] <JoseStefan> D-boy, have you considered ubuntu 6.06, a lot has been improved since then
[06:04] <bruenig> after you login of course
[06:04] <Snake> first off, I want to map my right shift key to be a "space" key. Then I want to fix my ubuntu to launch amarok when I press my "Start Media" button, thats currently set up for rythmbox
[06:04] <Snake> can anyone help?
[06:04] <ladydoor> D-boy: have you considered using dapper instead? it's the current stable version...
[06:04] <D-boy> i was hoping to install 5.1 and update
[06:05] <JoseStefan> D-boy, it would be a lot faster and easier to install 6.06
[06:05] <brendonjt> D-boy: sudo apt-get distro-update
[06:05] <D-boy> but i think you guys are right will try to get new version
[06:05] <bruenig> D-boy yeah do that
[06:05] <ladydoor> Snake: you need to install xmodmap and xbindkeys
[06:05] <cafuego> brendonjt: Did you mean dist-upgrade?
[06:05] <D-boy> i can't update
[06:05] <kjm> cafuego : It does make sense.....but would be strange.  First though, I'll attack this disc with rubbing alcohol and a lint free cloth :)
[06:05] <cafuego> kjm: aye
[06:05] <D-boy> i tried some commonds on the help site
[06:05] <StoneNote> D-boy, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Dapper#Upgrading_Ubuntu
[06:05] <Snake> ladydoor: thank you
[06:05] <ladydoor> Snake: xmodmap will allow you to remap your keys, and xbindkeys will allow you to assign a key to a program
[06:05] <brendonjt> cafuego:  opps me bad yip i did
[06:06] <bruenig> !Info xmodmap
[06:06] <ubotu> xmodmap: X input map modification. In component main, is optional. Version 1:1.0.0-0ubuntu1 (dapper), package size 18 kB, installed size 76 kB
[06:06] <nomasteryoda|w> cafuego, man Ubuntu ROCKS!
[06:06] <ladydoor> Snake: and if you need any help, feel free to ask
[06:06] <D-boy> but the console says can't find the file
[06:06] <nomasteryoda|w> just had to add that in
[06:06] <bruenig> D-boy download the .iso and burn it to disk
[06:06] <Snake> ladydoor: well its already assigned with the "keyboard shortcuts" but it trys to launch rythembox, rather than amarok
[06:06] <cliffd> are there any alt+tab replacements for gnome?
[06:06] <ltR20^^> Hello, My friend switched to UBUNTU. He has AOL but he cant connect to the internet cause he has to DIAL in..how does he do this?
[06:06] <bruenig> Snake, rhythmbox is probably the default media player
[06:06] <D-boy> will that my connection about 2 years
[06:06] <Snake> bruenig: how do I change that
[06:06] <Snake> is what im asking
[06:06] <z3r0> which kernel is evryone using here
[06:06] <bruenig> Snake, do you ever use rhythmbox?
[06:07] <ladydoor> Snake: aha...you need to edit that keyboard shortcut so that it'll specifically use amarok instead of "music-player" or whatever
[06:07] <Snake> bruenig: uninstalled
[06:07] <Snake> I hate that app
[06:07] <Snake> lol
[06:07] <bruenig> uninstalled, so what does it do when you try to launch it?
[06:07] <Snake> just says it cant find the command
[06:07] <bruenig> Snake, ok this is a quick fix
[06:07] <Snake> I need it to launch amarok instead, preferably
[06:07] <ladydoor> wd3: hello
[06:07] <Snake> bruenig: hit me
[06:07] <ACU> ltr20: I prety new but first you have to tell us: does s/he use a dial-up modem (internal or external), DSL or Cable ?
[06:07] <letsgfuad> whats a good music player for nix?
[06:07] <bruenig> open up a terminal and do this command "sudo ln -s /usr/bin/amarok /usr/bin/rhythmbox"
[06:08] <z3r0> quick question with iptables, if i upgrade my kernel do i haev to compile iptables on that kernel
[06:08] <Snake> ladydoor: amarok
[06:08] <Snake> :)
[06:08] <Snake> oops
[06:08] <Snake> letsgfuad: amarok
[06:08] <ladydoor> letsgfuad: what're you looking for? what kind of features?
[06:08] <DanaG> !modem
[06:08] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DialupModemHowto
[06:08] <letsgfuad> Snake: ill check that out
[06:08] <D-boy> thanks everyone
[06:08] <letsgfuad> ladydoor: well something with a that can have a nice playlist,
[06:08] <witless> any idea why i can't install libgtk+2.0-dev? apt-get install tells me stuff like:  "libgtk2.0-dev: Depends: libpango1.0-dev (>= 1.10.0-2) but it is not going to be installed"
[06:09] <letsgfuad> ladydoor: I have all my music on an external drive, so something that will work with that
[06:09] <Snake> bruenig: that is such a ghetto fix :)
[06:09] <Snake> but it worked
[06:09] <ladydoor> letsgfuad: hmmm...graphikal, pretty terminal interface, or command-line?
[06:09] <Snake> thanks man
[06:09] <bruenig> Snake, what that does if you don't know is create a symbolic link so that whenever anything tries to launch rhythmbox, it is redirected to amarok
[06:09] <Snake> yea
[06:09] <Snake> thanks man :)
[06:09] <brendonjt> letsguad: amarok  it rocks  a really good x base player
[06:10] <Snake> should have thought of that
[06:10] <fyyrest0rm> Hi all..quick questino (I hope)..anyone have any experience with mp3 players (DAP's)? Just bought one, it uses mtp protocol (apparently).. the instructions says I have to use windows media player to get stuff to the player. Anyone know anything about it?
[06:10] <fyyrest0rm> *question
[06:10] <Snake> now... lets figure out xmodmap
[06:10] <ladydoor> fyyrest0rm: you might need wine
[06:10] <witless> i'm trying to build mozilla sunbird from source but dapper won't install stuff that libgtk2.0-dev depends on...
[06:10] <fyyrest0rm> ladydoor: have wine..tried to install WMP under wine but just errors saying something about not being to find windows updates lol
[06:10] <ladydoor> fyyrest0rm: :-(
[06:11] <Snake> ladydoor: im sorry to bug you, but can you explain to me exactly what I need to do with xmodmap? This man page is terriable
[06:11] <ladydoor> Snake: you're not bugging me
[06:11] <ACU> ltR20^^: I pretty new but first you have to tell us: does s/he use a dial-up modem (internal or external), DSL or Cable ? - If it is a Phone lIne Dial-up and has a Windows Modem - you are out of luck - if it is an external modem (or some true modem) you can install and use KPPP (you can install it both, in KDE or Gnome using Syynaptics)
[06:11] <bruenig> fyrrest0rm, not sure if this breaks the rules here but if you can get one of the "cracked" windows media player from bittorrent with the wga stuff stripped you could probably wine that
[06:11] <brendonjt> fyyrest0rm: that is the problem  with alot of that kind of stuff i am luvky my ipod  runs on linux under gtkpod
[06:11] <kjm> fyyrest0rm : most mp3 players will act as a usb drive so you can drag and drop files onto them.
[06:11] <Snake> ladydoor: would it be like xmodmap -e shift_r = Backspace or something?
[06:11] <tritium> hey Snake
[06:11] <ladydoor> Snake: what keys are you trying to remap? (first open .Xmodmap in your favorite text editor)
[06:11] <Snake> hiya tritium
[06:12] <ladydoor> Snake: it's better to use a .Xmodmap file
[06:12] <Snake> ladydoor: where is that located
[06:12] <kjm> ladydoor : lifesaver.  A little elbow grease, rubbing alchohol and my movie keeps playing.
[06:12] <kjm> ty
[06:12] <brendonjt> kjm:it depends if the files are stored in a sql database on the device like the ipod does
[06:12] <ladydoor> Snake: in your home dir. it might not exist yet :-)
[06:12] <ladydoor> kjm: sweeeeet!
[06:12] <fyyrest0rm> kjm: tried that as well..it shows up when I drag/drop it..but once I unplug it its gone
[06:12] <void^> fyyrest0rm: have a look at gnomad2.sourceforge.net
[06:12] <Snake> ladydoor: it doesnt :)
[06:12] <Torch1K24> I've finally gotten XGL working, but the problem i have is that now i have two XGL sessions to pick from xgl and XGl
[06:12] <letsgfuad> ladydoor: umm well i guess a nice gui
[06:12] <madman__> !FilePermissions
[06:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about FilePermissions - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:13] <bruenig> !permissions
[06:13] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[06:13] <kjm> brendonjt : Ya,  the iPods are different, but a lot just scan directory tree for media.
[06:13] <ladydoor> Snake: cool beans. ok, so open that up and let me know when it's ready
[06:13] <ladydoor> *when you're ready
[06:13] <DanaG> VLC does many codecs.
[06:13] <ladydoor> letsgfuad: hmm, i don't know any of those. sorry :-)
[06:13] <Snake> okie dokie ladydoor
[06:13] <letsgfuad> lol np
[06:13] <DanaG> yIt just doesn't have many configuration options.
[06:13] <Snake> go for it
[06:13] <ladydoor> letsgfuad: you might like xmms
[06:13] <looktj> hmm
[06:13] <kjm> fyyrest0rm : What kind of player is it?
[06:13] <Snake> ladydoor: ~/.Xmodmap is open
[06:13] <letsgfuad> ill check that out
[06:13] <witless> !why_wont_libgtk2.-dev_install_on_my_system

[06:14] <letsgfuad> im installing amarok now i will see how i like it
[06:14] <Snake> ladydoor: I Want to make my right shift key a space button
[06:14] <StoneNote> witless, libgtk2.-dev?  you mean libgtk2-dev yes?
[06:14] <kjm> brendonjt : depends on which side you're on......the manufacturers sure love locking us into using their methods :)
[06:14] <DanaG> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=733865
[06:14] <ladydoor> Snake: for serious? that'll be hard to type...but ok...just a sec
[06:14] <DanaG> er, that's a fix for "shift-backspace kills X"
[06:14] <bruenig> letsgfuad, I would recommend doing sudo aptitude install amarok, because if you use apt-get, uninstalling it will not allow you to remove the enormous amount of kde libs necessary
[06:14] <brendonjt> letsgfuad: don't forget to install the mp3 codecs as well
[06:15] <Snake> ladydoor: na its to loud with my spacebar, wait, I can have the spacebar and the shift key mapped to space right??
[06:15] <looktj> lol snake
[06:15] <brendonjt> kjm:your right there itunes is a mess didn't even like it on the mac
[06:15] <Snake> I hope
[06:15] <Snake> ladydoor: also, im on a lappy, they kb is nice and small :)
[06:15] <ladydoor> Snake: i should think so. i'm just trying to find the command to dump your current config
[06:15] <DanaG> http://peter.hybridweb.co.uk/blog/2006/07/05/xgl-shift-backspace/
[06:15] <Snake> okay
[06:16] <letsgfuad> brendonjt: how do i do that?

[06:17] <ladydoor> ok, Snake? do this in a terminal:  dumpkeys|less
[06:18] <letsgfuad> so in amarok, how do i get a library from an external HD
[06:18] <Snake> ladydoor: Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console
[06:18] <DanaG> Nice thingy: http://www.anythingbutipod.com/archives/2005/07/mobiblu-dah1500-review.php
[06:18] <ladydoor> Snake: i'm sorry?
[06:18] <DanaG> Gnome auto-mounts for you.
[06:18] <Snake> ladydoor: thats the output
[06:18] <ladydoor> Snake: oh. do which dumpkeys to see if it's installed...
[06:19] <Snake> ok
[06:19] <Snake> ladydoor: incoming
[06:19] <Snake> ken@ubuntu:~$ which dumpkeys
[06:19] <Snake> /usr/bin/dumpkeys
[06:19] <yggdrasil> hello can somone help me mount a usb drive in a console only ubuntu box ?
[06:19] <witless> StoneNote: sorry, libgtk2.0-dev
[06:19] <ladydoor> yggdrasil: just a sec
[06:20] <ladydoor> Snake: ok, do dumpkeys > keymap
[06:20] <bruenig> yggdrasil, what is the name of the usb drive
[06:20] <reptyle> ladydoor: sudo dumpkeys :)
[06:20] <ladydoor> Snake: then less keymap
[06:20] <yggdrasil> cool,
[06:20] <yggdrasil> i dont know
[06:20] <yggdrasil> can we talk in pm please ?
[06:20] <ladydoor> reptyle: i don't need to use sudo on mine...
[06:20] <reptyle> or in a vt :)
[06:20] <bruenig> you need to know the name to mount it
[06:20] <Snake> uhhh
[06:20] <Snake> ladydoor: nothin?
[06:20] <yggdrasil> well how do i find out the name ?
[06:20] <ladydoor> yggdrasil: when you insert it, do dmsg|tail
[06:20] <yggdrasil> yea
[06:20] <ladydoor> Snake: you mean it's a blank file?
[06:20] <Snake> ladydoor: incoming
[06:20] <Snake> ken@ubuntu:~$ dumpkeys > keymap
[06:20] <Snake> Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console
[06:21] <Snake> ladydoor: then less keymap is blank
[06:21] <Snake> yes
[06:21] <ladydoor> Snake: you are in X, right?
[06:21] <witless> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/22114  <-- my pain
[06:21] <ladydoor> Snake: what term are you using?
[06:21] <yggdrasil> ok well its a bit more complicated that this... this is a mac clone . running ubuntu and i installed a usb / firewire /nick pci card not sure if the usb part of this system is working...
[06:21] <Snake> ladydoor: Im in gnome with a terminal open
[06:21] <Snake> ladydoor: gnome-terminal
[06:21] <kjm> fyyrest0rm - I'm not sure.   But it seems that konquerer with the RCA's is a little sketchy at the drag and drop.  Wonder if you can copy the files over using CLI ?  I just googled around quickly.  Not much more use to you though.
[06:21] <Ademan> i know its stupid, but can you cd "~/" ?
[06:21] <tehsu> i have a intel wireless card on my laptop, and i built the kernel with a module for it, but for some reason it wont show up.. what am i missing?
[06:22] <ladydoor> Snake: hmmm...try it in an xterm (<alt>f2, type xterm, hit <enter>
[06:22] <ladydoor> )
[06:22] <bruenig> witless, looks like major dependency problems
[06:22] <brendonjt> hard to say  at this point
[06:22] <bruenig> might break a lot if you do that
[06:22] <ladydoor> Snake: failing that, try it with sudo
[06:22] <tritium> tehsu: which card?  Why did you build the module?
[06:22] <yggdrasil> ladydoor when i lspci i see usb stuff .. i dont see any usb stuf in dmesg and its plugged in right now...
[06:22] <sky123> cacti was giving me fits to install....but i learned of a new command that may help out people for removal of packages...
[06:22] <tehsu> tritium: i copied the original config that came when i installed ubuntu..
[06:22] <tehsu> intell pro 2200
[06:22] <tehsu> b/g
[06:22] <witless> bruenig: i won't force it.  is this a problem in ubuntu's repositories?
[06:22] <ladydoor> yggdrasil: unplug it and see if any usb stuff comes up
[06:22] <sky123> apt-get --purge remove blah
[06:22] <Snake> ladydoor: sudo did it
[06:22] <tritium> tehsu: that module is already included by default
[06:23] <Snake> ladydoor: what now?
[06:23] <tritium> tehsu: works out of the box
[06:23] <ladydoor> Snake: sweet. so now you're looking at a bunch of key info?
[06:23] <bruenig> witless, try the deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gtk+2.0/libgtk2.0-dev_2.8.17-1ubuntu5_i386.deb
[06:23] <Snake> ladydoor: correcty
[06:23] <tehsu> tritium: right, but if the original kernel works fine, why does the new one cause problems
[06:23] <yggdrasil> ladydoor ok.
[06:23] <ladydoor> Snake: find the keycode for the shift you want to replace and the keycode for the space bar and write them down or something
[06:23] <tritium> tehsu: which new one?
[06:23] <bruenig> however if dpkg rejects it you might have the same issues
[06:23] <witless> bruenig: any idea why it doesn't work through apt?
[06:23] <ladydoor> yggdrasil: and then try dmsg -tail again
[06:23] <Snake> ladydoor: psh writing.. we have gedit for that
[06:23] <Snake> :-P
[06:23] <tehsu> tritium: im trying to control the Vcore on my centrino, and i have to rebuild the kernel..
[06:24] <ladydoor> Snake: meh. i prefer emacs
[06:24] <ladydoor> haha
[06:24] <Snake> ladydoor: just as well
[06:24] <ladydoor> Snake: ok, so let me know when you're ready :-)
[06:24] <fyyrest0rm> kdm: i'll give it a shot..looking at gnomad2 as well
[06:24] <tritium> tehsu: must be something with your build.  You are using ubuntu linux-source package?
[06:24] <tehsu> tritium: yes
[06:25] <tehsu> tritium: actually i dont think i had linuxsource..
[06:25] <tehsu> maybe thats what i did wrong
[06:25] <ladydoor> Snake: you should probably also write down the name of the key
[06:25] <tehsu> tritium: i just apt-get'd it and it installed
[06:25] <tehsu> can i reboot or do i have to rebuild kernel
[06:25] <ladydoor> (i.e., for keycode 1 you would write down keycode 1 Escape
[06:25] <Snake> ladydoor: okay so like this:
[06:25] <tritium> tehsu: it is not a linux-image package, so if you want to use it, you need to build from it
[06:25] <Snake> keycode  54 = Shift
[06:25] <Snake> keycode  57 = space
[06:26] <Snake> thats what mine said
[06:26] <lwizardl> hi
[06:26] <tehsu> tritium: ook
[06:26] <Snake> ladydoor: or do I need all this: (small flood)
[06:26] <Snake> keycode  57 = space control keycode  57 = nul alt     keycode  57 = Meta_space shift   alt     keycode  57 = Meta_space control alt     keycode  57 = Meta_nul
[06:26] <tritium> Snake: you channel spammer...
[06:26] <Snake> tritium: it was only 5 lines
[06:26] <tritium> Snake: I know ;)
[06:27] <tehsu> tritium: im using this to build is it right? make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-version -uservcore --revision 1 kernel-image
[06:27] <ladydoor> Snake: i don't know. i think that just the first will do
[06:27] <Snake> ladydoor: sounds good
[06:27] <tehsu> uh that didnt come otu right for me
[06:27] <Snake> ladydoor: is this fixable when my kb gets screwed up?
[06:27] <Snake> :)
[06:27] <lwizardl> has anyone here setup an ubuntu box to be used as a nas?
[06:27] <tritium> tehsu: looks roughly correct
[06:27] <ladydoor> Snake: it should be reversible, yes
[06:27] <Snake> ladydoor: alright
[06:27] <tehsu> tritium: if i just reuse that will it pick up the kernel-package?
[06:27] <Snake> ladydoor: so what now
[06:27] <tritium> tehsu: what do you mean?
[06:28] <ladydoor> Snake: ok...enter a line that looks like this:
[06:28] <ladydoor> Snake: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main
[06:28] <ladydoor> deb-src http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt dapper main
[06:28] <tehsu> i patched the linux-source-2.6.15
[06:28] <ladydoor> #not like that
[06:28] <ladydoor> Snake: like this: remove Lock = Caps_Lock
[06:28] <tehsu> so i can edit the centrino Vcore on the fly
[06:28] <Snake> wah?
[06:28] <tehsu> and im following the directions
[06:28] <ladydoor> Snake: only, say, remove Shift = Shift_L
[06:28] <Snake> ah
[06:28] <Snake> ladydoor: where at?
[06:28] <DanaG> Which kernel source is better to customize: the one from Apt, or the one from Git?
[06:28] <ladydoor> Snake: just at the top of that .Xmodmap file
[06:29] <Snake> oh ok
[06:29] <ladydoor> Snake: and then another one for space
[06:29] <tehsu> tritium: i think that is what i needed (kernel-package)
[06:29] <Snake> ladydoor: okay.
[06:29] <fyyrest0rm> kjm: CLI seems to work just fine..go figure
[06:29] <DanaG> I wish the Ubuntu kernel included vesafb-tng
[06:29] <Snake> ladydoor: so remove Space = Space?
[06:29] <Snake> or what?
[06:29] <tritium> tehsu: yes, using kernel-package is good
[06:29] <ladydoor> Snake: shiny...i guess
[06:30] <tehsu> tritium: ok thanx man alot of help :)
[06:30] <Snake> okie dokie.
[06:30] <Snake> ladydoor: I hope you know what your doing
[06:30] <Snake> :-P
[06:30] <ltR20^^> Hello, My friend switched to UBUNTU. He has AOL but he cant connect to the internet cause he has to DIAL in..how does he do this?
[06:30] <Snake> ladydoor: alright I got those, feel free to continue when your ready
[06:30] <ladydoor> then do something like this: keysym Control_L = Caps_Lock (only, say, Shift_L = Space or whatever)
[06:31] <AustLaw> what are some good media players? im use to winamp
[06:31] <ladydoor> Snake: and an identical one just the other way around ( Space = Shift_L or whatever)
[06:31] <Snake> ok
[06:31] <DanaG> I like Amarok
[06:31] <DanaG> Beep-Media-Player is also nice, but it's not my preference.\
[06:31] <kjm> !modem > ltR20^^
[06:31] <ladydoor> Snake: and finally, lines along these lines:
[06:32] <ladydoor> add Space = Space
[06:32] <lwizardl> if i wanted to setup a ubuntu pc to be used as nas (network accessible storage) including multi-users how would i go about it?
[06:32] <Justin_> Is there any good NES emulators for Ubuntu anyone has used?
[06:32] <Snake> okay that was weird
[06:32] <ladydoor> s-ndh-c: add Shift = Shift_L
[06:32] <Snake> ladydoor: again, alright thats done, whats next
[06:32] <yggdrasil> ladydoor ok got this [702374.429874]  usb 3-2: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 2
[06:32] <ladydoor> s-ndh-c: sorry, that was for snake
[06:32] <yggdrasil> and thats all..
[06:33] <ladydoor> add Shift = Shift_L
[06:33] <Snake> ladydoor: done
[06:33] <ladydoor> Snake: and the same for space
[06:33] <ladydoor> oh
[06:33] <Snake> ok
[06:33] <ladydoor> sweet...
[06:33] <ladydoor> now let's see if it works. in a terminal, do xmodmap .Xmodmap
[06:33] <ladydoor> if it doesn't work
[06:33] <ladydoor> Snake: now let's see if it works. in a terminal, do xmodmap .Xmodmap
[06:33] <Snake> ladydoor: hang on can you review first? Ill pastebin
[06:34] <ladydoor> Snake: if it doesn't work, then do xmodmap .Xmodmap again

[06:40] <madman__> yggdrasil: yes
[06:40] <ladydoor> yggdrasil: good idea
[06:40] <yggdrasil> it just sits there...

[06:43] <Juanjo> help me
[06:43] <maple> if I lost volume control beside the clock in gnome how do I get it back?
[06:43] <maple> I can open it via terminal still
[06:43] <maple> and I still have sound
[06:44] <Abst> Right click the panel at the top
[06:44] <Abst> Click add to panel
[06:44] <Abst> Under sys & hardware
[06:44] <maple> ok
[06:45] <kjm> from what I am finding around, you'll need to change its permissions to edit, you can then change them back to -rw-r.....
[06:45] <madman__> kjm: gedit reports:You do not have the permissions necessary to open the file.
[06:45] <kjm> madman_:from what I am finding around, you'll need to change its permissions to edit, you can then change them back to -rw-r.....
[06:45] <maple> I was trying to upgrade the SB live drivers because the bass and treble controls don't work properly and the new drivers just kept locking up gnome -_-
 help what?
[06:45] <kjm> madman: so, as root you could $chmod 777 /etc/shadow
[06:45] <tehsu> Warning: PCI driver ipw2200 has a struct device_driver shutdown method, please update << any ideas?
[06:45] <kjm> madman_ : then edit, then change permissions back.
[06:46] <AustLaw> how do I setup my sound card? does not apear to be working
[06:46] <tehsu> this makes no sense, it works fine with the out of the box kernel but if i make a kernel it doesnt work
[06:46] <madman__> kjm: sudo -l ?
[06:46] <kjm> madman : no.  sudo chmod 777 /etc/shadow
[06:47] <kjm> madman : You can then edit it as sudo.  Do whatever you wanted to do, then sudo chmod <I'd need to look up number> /etc/shadow
[06:47] <tehsu> how do i update the kernel theone im downloading is <IP_ADDRESS>
[06:48] <mister_roboto> sudo 777 /etc/shadow is a security hole
[06:48] <kjm> to reestablish permissions sudo chmod 64 /etc/shadow
[06:49] <kjm> mister_roboto : yes, but only briefly?  If you change permissions back it shouldn't affect system to bad.
[06:49] <phenol> anyone have success syncing a treo (or any smartphone) via bluetooth?

[06:50] <Torch1K24> I've finally gotten XGL working, but the problem i have is that now i have two XGL sessions to pick from xgl and XGl
[06:50] <kjm> mister_roboto : He's getting permission errors when attempting $sudo edit /etc/shadow
[06:50] <tehsu> anyone here setup the Vcore on the fly kernel?
[06:50] <Torch1K24> P.S. This is my second day with Ubuntu
[06:50] <kjm> mister_roboto : so workaround is give permission to yourself, do what you want, and then fix it.
[06:50] <AustLaw> are there any tutorials on getting sound card working?
[06:50] <phenol> torchik try both
[06:50] <phenol> try xgl
[06:50] <phenol> lowercase
[06:50] <phenol> first
[06:50] <mister_roboto> kjm: he should not if it's writable by root.   should work with 640, the default perms
[06:51] <Torch1K24> both work just fine
[06:51] <Torch1K24> i just want to get rid of one of them
[06:51] <kjm> mister_roboto : yes, it should.  But it doesn't seem to be...
[06:51] <mister_roboto> kjm: but he shouldn't be modifying that directly in the first place
[06:51] <mister_roboto> kdm: useradd or usermod will do the trick
[06:51] <kjm> mister_roboto : I assume that people have their reasons for doing things. . . .whether they should or not....
[06:52] <kjm> :)
[06:52] <mister_roboto> kjm:   :)   indeed
[06:52] <tritium> tehsu: sorry, I was away
[06:52] <kjm> mister_roboto : usermod should work, and probably a few keystrokes less than my workaround.

[06:53] <|thunder> I need help. I've just got firefox32+flash32 running on my ubuntu64. I can run the 32 bti just fine and flash+sound is working. However when I double click a link on my desktop it opens up the 64  bit browser not the 32 bit. I tried changing the command in System/PreferedApps, however it still just starts 64 bit firefox. I've also tried redirecting the soft link in /usr/bin and still it starts the 64 bit. its frustrating.
