[03:59] <Sydero> from terminal
[03:59] <unop> Sydero, it's not a file specific to a specific distro or OS .. it's the file Xorg/Xfree86/X uses
[03:59] <Storm_Cloud> yeah, but as soon as i close my terminal it dies... isn't showing anymore in the tray...
[03:59] <Sydero> yeah but Ubuntu has changed a few things around
[03:59] <Kardos> hmmmm, it's a novel new idea to me, *shrug* i guess im out of date in terms of ubuntu
[03:59] <Sydero> well maybe you can select an option of run everytime Storm
[03:59] <ethana2> Storm_Cloud, use a & after it in the terminal
[03:59] <Dr_willis> effowe,  example .xinitrc (2 lines) --> xterm &      exec windowmanageryouwant
[03:59] <\-> my machine is a PIII 750 and RAM 128.
[03:59] <\-> I can not install ubuntu <IP_ADDRESS>. if someone can help me I thank
[04:00] <effowe> ok., im going to test this out, thanks for the help
[04:00] <overrider> hi, can someone help me get my sound to work? i know it should be working, as it worked before on same laptop, asus f8sv. lsmod doesnt show any sound modules, alsamixer says nothing found. is there a command i can use to load all sound modules, to see which one will work? thanks.
[04:00] <unop> Sydero, X can use a variety of different files. the xinit manpage should document them all and their order of precendence
[04:00] <SaintStewart> Odd question.  Is there a desktop thats just desktop (no KDE bar or Gnome bar) until you right or left click the desktop and then it brings a menu up?  I know there used to be one, but Ive forgotten it and dont know if its still around.
[04:01] <ethana2> \-: that hardware should be recycled really, now if 250nm, soon if 180nm
[04:01] <genii> \-: Use the alternate cd to install from. The livecd needs far more than 128Mb of ram to run
[04:01] <Odd-rationale> SaintStewart: try openbox
[04:01] <ethana2> \-: what genii said
[04:01] <SaintStewart> Openbox?  OK.  Looking.
[04:01] <Storm_Cloud> okay, it's running...
[04:01] <ethana2> Storm_Cloud, if you ran it with & after it, you should be able to close the terminal and have it still run
[04:01] <ethana2> that's how I do my screensaver desktop backgrounds
[04:02] <unop> SaintStewart, fluxbox too
[04:02] <Sydero> reinstalling is probably the easiest option
[04:02] <melz0> hello can someone please recommend a good vnc server for ubuntu, (hopefully one that is easy to setup) just to use over LAN
[04:02] <SaintStewart> Ok, Fluxbox too....looking there as well.
[04:02] <Storm_Cloud> hey, thanks...
[04:02] <Odd-rationale> but fluxbox has a panel...
[04:02] <m0u5e> how do i lock a package so that update-manager doesn't bother me about updating it?
[04:02] <Sylphid> melz0, tightvnc
[04:02] <genii> !pinning | m0u5e
[04:02] <unop> Odd-rationale, it can be disabled
[04:02] <Sydero> Storm_Cloud: uninstall and reinstall
[04:02] <Odd-rationale> unop: true...
[04:02] <Sydero> Storm_Cloud: network-manager-gnome
[04:03] <unop> SaintStewart, twm is pretty simple too - the one that vnc tends to use
[04:03] <melz0> thanks Sylphid
[04:03] <\-> ok thanks!
[04:03] <SaintStewart> Heyyyyy...I know this one.  Wasnt there a Fluxbuntu distro or something a while back?
[04:03] <Dr_willis> SaintStewart,  jwm is decent for vnc ussage also.
[04:03] <Odd-rationale> unop: fluxbuntu... seems dead now though...
[04:03] <unop> SaintStewart, i believe it is still being maintained
[04:03] <will00> i just set up a ftp server and i cant seem to get sshfs to work right, it keeps saying that the connection was reset by peer. i can remotely control it from the remote desktop viewer fine
[04:04] <Storm_Cloud> yeah, the other one i'll deinstall in a few moments...
[04:04] <SaintStewart> LoL Thanks all for the flood of msgs.
[04:04] <unop> Odd-rationale, perhaps - not sure, never saw the point to it
[04:04] <Storm_Cloud> but i am getting no ip or whatsoever...
[04:04] <evilbug> the "-20" kernel sucks :( it's not working for me [not even -20.38].
[04:04] <Odd-rationale> unop: me either... :D
[04:04] <bogey-> !offtopic
[04:05] <hou5ton> To upload images to FaceBook I'm being asked to install one of the following, and am not sure which one would be the best choice. The choices are 1) GCJ Web Browser Plugin, 2) Java SE 6, 3) Java SE 5 ..... any thoughts?
[04:05] <Kattman> Super grub where do I find it!
[04:05] <meme03847> so guys, edubuntu is just a add on package cd?
[04:05] <Sydero> Java SE 6
[04:05] <hou5ton> Sydero:  thanks
[04:05] <bogey-> !edubuntu | meme03857
[04:05] <Odd-rationale> meme03847: yes. now it is...
[04:05] <nownot> im having all sorts of trouble with my box. i have 5900 open in firestart but can not connect to the vnc server get error Connection Terminated The server closed the connection
[04:05] <meme03847> Odd-rationale, ok, just wanter to confirm, thanks
[04:06] <Sydero> you probably also require an inbound port to be open nownot
[04:06] <Sydero> not just an outbound
[04:06] <bogey-> hou5ton: sudo apt-get install sun-java6
[04:06] <nownot> Sydero: ? didnt have to before
[04:06] <nicholashubbard> has anyone tried to setup a SSL OpenLDAP server on 8.04?
[04:06] <bogey-> hou5ton: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[04:06] <macho> hey
[04:07] <SaintStewart> Hm....Openbox vs Fluxbox....which to choose.
[04:07] <hou5ton> bogey-:  Firefox is just doing it auto magicallly
[04:07] <hou5ton> bogey-:  i guess .. :-)
[04:07] <macho> have any1 know to u ps3grid
[04:07] <Odd-rationale> SaintStewart: don't start that debate...
[04:07] <bogey-> !offtopic | SaintStewart
[04:07] <Odd-rationale> ;)
[04:08] <SaintStewart> LoL Im not offtopic, just wondering which to use for myself.
[04:08] <ethana2> macho: ubuntu on the ps3?  #ubuntu-ps3
[04:08] <bogey-> !offtopic | SaintStewart
[04:08] <mib_b28295ey> hey
[04:08] <mib_b28295ey> i need help
[04:08] <ethana2> macho: ..and it's likely that we don't, sadly
[04:08] <SaintStewart> Bogey, stop spamming me with that.  Thanks.
[04:08] <bogey-> !ask | mib_b28295ey
[04:08] <macho> i have something call ps3grid
[04:08] <ethana2> macho: we're neglected and don't even have something that Just Works
[04:08] <mib_b28295ey> ok thanks bogey
[04:08] <ethana2> macho: distributed computing client for the Cell Broadband Engine?
[04:09] <mib_b28295ey> now can someone tell me whats wong with this?  sudo bless –verbose –folder “/Volumes/OSX/System/Library/CoreServices” –bootinfo
[04:09] <macho> go here ps3gird.net
[04:09] <ManualOverDozer8> anyone know what "shared dirty" is in System Monitor/Memory Map ?
[04:09] <LinuxIST> good support? WIRELESS-MINI-PCI-E-EXPRESS-DELL-3945ABG-WIFI_W0QQitemZ320277963454QQihZ011QQcategoryZ45000QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
[04:09] <genii> bah
[04:10] <SaintStewart> LinuxIST - Yes, I have that in one of my laptops.  Very easy to use with Ubuntu and works FAST.
[04:10] <ethana2> macho: that is for the ps3 os, not ubuntu
[04:10] <macho> i download PS3GRID on my ps3 but it not a full os
[04:10] <genii> LinuxIST: Perhaps look into the service of http://tinyurl.com/
[04:10] <Storm_Cloud> cannot be... still won't work :(
[04:10] <Odd-rationale> SaintStewart: best way to decide is to try both. you can have both installed on your system anyways...
[04:10] <macho> i trying to but ubuntu on my ps3 but i cant
[04:10] <Sydero> Storm_Cloud: ?
[04:10] <ethana2> macho: let the devs know you want it to work
[04:11] <ethana2> macho: they ignore us
[04:11] <ethana2> macho: 7.10 works all but the wifi
[04:11] <Storm_Cloud> ywah, reinstalled network-manager-gnome just a few secs ago...
[04:11] <YouKnowMeDontLie> my ubuntu installation has stopped mounting usb flash drives for some reason, does anyone know what [package is "in charge" of this so that i can reinstall it to hopefully fix it?
[04:11] <ethana2> 8.10 should be a native Just Works release, but the main dev got busy so we may miss it
[04:11] <Sydero> add "Network Manager" to autostarted apps
[04:11] <macho> i dont have a computer with inearnet
[04:11] <mib_b28295ey> so nobody here knows what is wrong with this command? sudo bless –verbose –folder “/Volumes/OSX/System/Library/CoreServices” –bootinfo
[04:12] <Storm_Cloud> yeah, but how does it help if i cannot connect right now?
[04:12] <Sydero> oh
[04:12] <rnstux> i need to chance the hour in my system, but i want Ubuntu dont ask the password, how?
[04:12] <Sydero> why can't you connect?
[04:12] <mark__> hello :) i just re-installed ubuntu and while trying to install my NVIDIA graphics driver i got 404'd. anyone have an idea of what's up? this was the link: http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/restricted/l/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24/nvidia-glx-new_169.12+<IP_ADDRESS>-18.41_i386.deb
[04:12] <Storm_Cloud> don't know... i just don't get any kind of IP or whatsoever, even though my router assigns them automatically...
[04:12] <genii> mib_b28295ey: Other than "bless" is not a native ubuntu command?
[04:13] <YouKnowMeDontLie> ls
[04:13] <YouKnowMeDontLie> ls
[04:13] <YouKnowMeDontLie> ls
[04:13] <mib_b28295ey> ok
[04:13] <FloodBot1> YouKnowMeDontLie: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:13] <Storm_Cloud> and my router also has the MAC of my Wireless interface in the DHCP Client list...
[04:13] <Sydero> Storm_Cloud: so you're connected to your network?
[04:13] <mib_b28295ey> thanks anyways
[04:13] <Templar_Xion> Is there a way to tell your disk RPM?
[04:13] <Storm_Cloud> yeah, it is my own network... i am connected via LAN though right now...
[04:13] <SaintStewart> Ok, well, thanks all for the info.  Im gonna quit, as I keep getting floowed with tells that I'm offtopic.  Have a good night.
[04:14] <YouKnowMeDontLie> does anyone know how to why a hardy release system could stop automounting usb drives
[04:14] <Storm_Cloud> and if i want to use the option "Edit Wireless Networks" the whole interface of the next window is locked...
[04:15] <xz-> i burned ubuntu 8.04 onto a blank CD, but my brand new laptop freezes in the middle of setting up for LiveCD.  I burned another cd just to make sure and my laptop freezes before I even get the status bar. what's going on?
[04:15] <ManualOverDozer8> Storm_Cloud: i missed most of the conversation, but, what seems to be the problem with your WiFI ?
[04:15] <macho> hey there anyway i can add ubuntu on my ps3 by usb and not disc
[04:15] <Sydero> you don't need to do that Storm_Cloud
[04:15] <Sydero> just left-click on the icon
[04:15] <Storm_Cloud> well, that won't work as i don't get any ip or whatsoever...
[04:15] <meoblast001> macho: dont think so unless you modify kboot
[04:15] <bobertdos> YouKnowMeDontLie: It may have something to do with the drive being improperly ejected one time.
[04:15] <rnstux> i need to chance the hour in my system, but i want Ubuntu dont ask the password, how?
[04:16] <Sydero> What does left clicking show you?
[04:16] <meoblast001> macho: what did you do to your disc drive? =P
[04:16] <ethana2> rnstux: what is your first language?
[04:16] <macho> how can i do that
[04:16] <ethana2> rnstux: you may get better help in the channel for that language, if it exists
[04:16] <macho> i on here useing my ps3 OS
[04:16] <tuntun> Ubuntu won't read my cdrw, it says "there is probably no media in the drive".
[04:17] <Kardos> put a cd in!
[04:17] <ethana2> macho: a ps3 os irc client?
[04:17] <ethana2> macho: whoa!
[04:17] <macho> yes
[04:17] <genii> mark__: Probably because the file is now called nvidia-glx-new_169.12+<IP_ADDRESS>-20.46_i386.deb and not anymore nvidia-glx-new_169.12+<IP_ADDRESS>-18.41_i386.deb
[04:17] <macho> but i wanna add the ubuntu full os
[04:17] <Templar_Xion> Is there a way to tell your disk RPM in Hardy?
[04:17] <genii> mark__: You should probably do sudo apt-get update       to get the current list
[04:17] <rnstux> @ethana2->It's bad english
[04:17] <meoblast001> macho: cfw?
[04:17] <ethana2> macho: #ubuntu-ps3

[04:25] <ethana2> MolePrince: have you restarted?
[04:25] <ethana2> MolePrince: low level things like that may require a restart before you see their effects
[04:25] <mad> hoe to use kismet ?

[04:26] <Sydero> man kismet mad
[04:26] <ganymede> hurray for rtfm
[04:26] <MolePrince> ethana2: Restarted and reloaded x multiple times.
[04:26] <tuntun> Ubuntu won't read my cdrw, it says "there is probably no media in the drive". Is there any solution to this problem?
[04:27] <ethana2> MolePrince: #ati

[04:28] <fethe8> i got kicked when i tried to show you my lspci
[04:28] <zelrikriando> fethe8, if you want to post big text use pastebin
[04:28] <zelrikriando> !pastebin
[04:28] <ethana2> fethe8: yes, use pastebin
[04:29] <tuntun> Ubuntu won't read my cdrw, it says "there is probably no media in the drive". Is there any solution to this problem?
[04:29] <fethe8> how do you do that
[04:29] <zelrikriando> fethe8, and do not pm without permission around here by the way :)
[04:29] <fethe8> ok
[04:29] <zelrikriando> fethe8 : google > pastebin :)
[04:30] <macho> ethana; there anyway to bypass the ps3 bootloader to install ubuntu cdrom
[04:30] <tuntun> Ubuntu won't read my cdrw, it says "there is probably no media in the drive". Is there a solution to this problem?
[04:30] <thinman1189> I'm trying to copy the output of dmesg but there's too many lines, it won't show it all. is there anyway to output it all to a file or something or is that all I can see?
[04:31] <fethe8> its in paste bin
[04:31] <w33d5> for all those wondering what the terminal partition editor was that i was asking about earlier -- its called partman
[04:31] <lazarus_lupine> tuntun: mount it manually maybe?
[04:31] <LinuxIST> Sydero,  i just ordered your suggestion from ebay, if it doesn't work, am hacking your system
[04:31] <genii> tuntun: Is it blank?
[04:31] <lazarus_lupine> sudo mount /dev/cdrom0 maybe
[04:31] <Sydero> it's built into the kernel by default LinuxIST
[04:31] <tuntun> genii, no
[04:31] <zelrikriando> fethe8, link the url of the post on pastebin here
[04:32] <fethe8> http://pastebin.com/m4794873d
[04:32] <genii> tuntun: Use filesystem of udf and not iso9660
[04:32] <LinuxIST> Sydero, another confirmed your suggestion
[04:32] <tuntun> lazarus_lupine "mount: mount point maybe does not exist"
[04:33] <zelrikriando> fethe8, ok so at least your sound card is recognized
[04:33] <zelrikriando> hmm
[04:33] <LinuxIST> hopefully i will sleep again. I havent for day fighting with my wifi
[04:34] <LinuxIST> days*
[04:34] <fethe8> at start it worked i did a synaptic update a while ago and now its not working
[04:34] <Sydero> I unfortunately never sleep :/
[04:34] <Sydero> lucky you :P
[04:34] <sjust1216> Hi all I installed a new mother board today cant seem to get the network going
[04:34] <Sydero> ....
[04:34] <Sydero> well if you installed a new motherboard you'll probably want to reinstall the operating system
[04:35] <zelrikriando> fethe8, that might be flash related... try installing libflashsupport
[04:35] <LinuxIST> Sydero, am losing my hair due to broadcom issues
[04:35] <Sydero> google is your friend :P
[04:35] <tuntun> I'll just bloody write the cdrw in windows
[04:35] <ejmint> hey i had a bad sd card in my camera that i wasnt able to read... i used dd to copy its contents to a file..."dd if=/dev/sdg of=~/baddisk" can anyone tell me how to now get my data from this file?
[04:35] <sjust1216> I asked on here two days ago and was told I would not have to reinstall
[04:36] <Sydero> it's easier to
[04:36] <zelrikriando> fethe8, if that doesnt work...well keep asking on this channel :)
[04:36] <sjust1216> ubuntu see the lan chip but is still configured for the other board
[04:36] <Sydero> otherwise you have to add modules
[04:36] <Sydero> etc etc
[04:36] <fethe8> i cant find it in synaptic
[04:36] <kosmo> #ubuntu-pl
[04:37] <sjust1216> ok  I see better start over then add to the mess
[04:37] <ejmint> hey i had a bad sd card in my camera that i wasnt able to read... i used dd to copy its contents to a file..."dd if=/dev/sdg of=~/baddisk" can anyone tell me how to now get my data from this file?

[04:38] <nownot> Sydero: not a option, + that is horrible advice + tried that and it didnt work
[04:38] <Sydero> :S
[04:38] <nownot> so its not the firewall
[04:39] <Flannel> Sydero: Abuse?
[04:39] <kosmo> sudo ufw enable      firewale on
[04:39] <kosmo> sudo ufw disable     firewale off
[04:39] <kosmo> :)
[04:39] <nownot> so no help?
[04:40] <fethe8> still nothing
[04:40] <Flannel> ejmint: There may be tools out there to do it (probably are), but its FAT, so just open up a hex editor and poke around, see what you can see, etc.  Its a fairly simple filesystem
[04:40] <fethe8> no sounds
[04:40] <MTecknology> I like pudding!
[04:40] <Sydero> I like water!
[04:40] <dr_Willis> I like water pudding!
[04:40] <Flannel> !offtopic
[04:41] <legend2440> !beer
[04:41] <Dedi> !morebeer :)
[04:41] <Sydero> !repeat
[04:41] <Sydero> !patience
[04:42] <ejmint> is there any noted linux hex editor quickly?
[04:42] <Sydero> !hex
[04:42] <fethe8> no sound in my ubuntu
[04:43] <zelrikriando> fethe8, you didnt find the package?
[04:43] <Sydero> !life
[04:43] <fethe8> non
[04:43] <fethe8> no
[04:43] <nownot> so no one knows how to setup remote deskto, or better yet why it is failing
[04:43] <snarkster> if i want to install kde4 do i just do sudo apt-get install kubuntu4-desktop kde4-core
[04:43] <Sydero> you might have to add the repo first
[04:43] <dr_Willis> nownot,  i normally just install vnc4server and share a 'privite' vnc session, not the currently running desktop
[04:43] <Flannel> ejmint: hexdump will work.  I'm sure there's GUI ones.  Search the repos.
[04:43] <xinnix> can someone tell me what vesa mode?
[04:43] <Sydero> sudo apt-get install kubuntu4-desktop should be enough on its own
[04:44] <snarkster> ok
[04:44] <snarkster> thank you
[04:44] <Flannel> snarkster: no, kubuntu-kde4-desktop
[04:44] <xinnix> or what vesa mode is?
[04:44] <nownot> dr_Willis: i keep getting timmed out after it connnects
[04:44] <Sydero> and you can connect via windows?
[04:44] <zelrikriando> fethe8, no libflashsupport? :/ ok lets see if it's in another repository
[04:44] <Sydero> nownot,
[04:45] <zelrikriando> hey does somebody know where to get libflashsupport from?
[04:45] <fethe8> ok
[04:45] <ejmint> thx Flannel
[04:45] <nownot> Sydero,
[04:45] <Flannel> zelrikriando: libflashsupport is in universe in hardy
[04:45] <xinnix> i cant seem to install ubuntu on my dell D630 it just locks up during install, can someone help me?
[04:46] <zelrikriando> Flannel, say it to fethe8 , he cant find it
[04:46] <Sydero> xinnix, it's possible that your cd has an error on it
[04:46] <xinnix> no
[04:46] <nvrpunk> whats the name of ubuntu's default cursor theme?
[04:46] <zelrikriando> Flannel, maybe you can actually help him better than I can :)
[04:46] <xinnix> it has happened with every distro i have gotten
[04:46] <Sydero> ah
[04:46] <Flannel> fethe8: What version of Ubuntu are you on?
[04:46] <xinnix> except backtrack when i run it in vesa mode
[04:47] <Flannel> xinnix: Try installing from the Alternate CD instead of the Desktop CD
[04:47] <ZStar> What's the keyboard command to switch between virtual desktops?
[04:47] <mercutio22> Hello, How can I add spelling correction support for portuguese in evolution and other apps?
[04:47] <ZStar> (In Gnome)
[04:47] <xinnix> i have
[04:47] <xinnix> it still locks up
[04:47] <Flannel> xinnix: Have you verified the integrity of the CDs?
[04:47] <xinnix> yes
[04:48] <Sydero> when does it crash?
[04:48] <Sydero> or lock
[04:48] <xinnix> when it the gui first pops up and gives me some install options
[04:48] <xinnix> iam thinking its because of the resolution
[04:48] <xinnix> i have heard of resolution problems causing the lock up
[04:48] <Flannel> xinnix: Have you tried setting your BIOS to boot without the framebuffer?
[04:48] <Sydero> What's your resolution?
[04:48] <Sydero> standard*
[04:49] <anand_> i swich user from the terminal with su command and now i want to run firefox..it says not able to find any protocol
[04:49] <AskForID> My wireless card is being detected and the correct driver is installed, but wireless connection is not an available option.  How do I fix this?
[04:49] <xinnix> 1280x800
[04:49] <Sydero> then the resolution isn't a problem
[04:49] <xinnix> k
[04:49] <OB1FoShoB> Ubuntu FTW!!
[04:49] <xinnix> framebuffer
[04:49] <xinnix> no
[04:49] <xinnix> its in the bios you say?
[04:49] <xinnix> let me check
[04:49] <Flannel> xinnix: Are you sure you havent tried the alternate CDs?
[04:49] <xinnix> yes flannel
[04:49] <Flannel> xinnix: No, don't worry about it.  The alternate CDs shouldn't have any resolution issues, since they're not GUIs
[04:49] <xinnix> i will try it again
[04:50] <xinnix> i have my laptop next to me
[04:50] <Iz_> hi
[04:50] <xinnix> \(^_^)
[04:50] <zelrikriando> Flannel, did fethe8  get back to you?
[04:50] <Flannel> zelrikriando: no

[04:52] <anand_> i swich user from the terminal with su command and now i want to run firefox..it says not able to find any protocol any tips please
[04:52] <Sydero> xinnix tons of users with D630 have installed ubuntu successfully
[04:52] <Sydero> so I'm leaning towards cd defects
[04:52] <fethe8> trying to install
[04:52] <Sydero> or improper burning
[04:53] <fethe8> but says libc6 dependency not satisfiable but i cheked and libc6 is there
[04:53] <anand_> i swich user from the terminal with su command and now i want to run firefox..it says not able to find any protocol any tips please

[04:53] <Flannel> fethe8: What version of Ubuntu are you on currently?
[04:53] <Flannel> anand_: Which user are you switching to?
[04:54] <AskForID> My wireless card is being detected and the correct driver is installed, but wireless connection is not an available option.  How do I fix this?
[04:54] <anand_> to some other user i created..not root
[04:54] <EvilDennisR> simplexio: Yes?
[04:54] <meme03847> hey guys, is edubuntu only a server/client type thing, or can it be standalone?
[04:54] <Flannel> meme03847: Its standalone
[04:54] <meme03847> ok
[04:55] <anand_> what do u mean by "which user" Flannel?
[04:55] <Blice> Hi! If my wireless finds the networks and connects to them okay (100% connection, or around), yet I can't ping out (Even to the router!), what do you guys think would be the reason for that? When I do ifconfig it seems that the wireless router *has* given me an IP address (DCHP), yet I still can't ping it or connect out anywhere. Ideas?
[04:55] <fethe8> how do i find that
[04:55] <xinnix> sydero i have red that too why my installation is being a bi#ch is a weird
[04:55] <Flannel> fethe8: lsb_release -a
[04:55] <Flannel> fethe8: and the "Release" field
[04:56] <Flannel> meme03847: Edubuntu is now an add on CD.  Install Ubuntu, Kubuntu, etc, and then you add Educational stuff to it.
[04:56] <kinema> I just installed Ubuntu on my new hosted virtual server. Unlike pretty much every other install of Ubuntu I've used this one has only one user, root. I'm used to having the root account disabled and using sudo to do everything. Other than create a user account what do I need do do to get back to the Ubuntu/sudo way of doing things?
[04:56] <Flannel> meme03847: (as opposed to being a standalone distro)
[04:56] <meme03847> right
[04:56] <meme03847> im gona be dontaing this computer :D
[04:56] <anand_> i swich user from the terminal with su command and now i want to run firefox..it says not able to find any protocol any tips
[04:56] <Flannel> kinema: add that user to the admin group, and then from that uesr "sudo passwd -l root" to re-lock the root account (and verify you can sudo with that user)
[04:56] <Flannel> !repeat | anand_
[04:57] <kinema> Flannel: Thanks!
[04:57] <MoralExploit> Hey guys.... I got some problems I installed ubuntu via wubi and when i boot into ubuntu I just get a command line when I type startx it just says bash/sh startx not known or something

[04:57] <Flannel> kinema: Make sure when you're adding the user, if you're using usermod, you remember the -a (usermod -G admin -a username)
[04:57] <Flannel> fethe8: 7.10 doesn't have libflashsupport
[04:57] <anand_> i swich user from the terminal with su command and now i want to run firefox..it says not able to find any protocol any tips please
[04:58] <olskolirc> ok fellas how do I take an mp3 and turn it to a wav.  this is task part one.
[04:58] <Flannel> fethe8: also, it doesn't need it, since it doesn't use Pulse Audio
[04:58] <kinema> Flannel: Is useradd the best way to create accounts from the console?
[04:58] <Flannel> kinema: adduser is more user friendly
[04:58] <macho> hmmm any way i can add ubuntu 7.10 on my ps3 useinf a usb driver
[04:58] <xinnix> sydero you still there?
[04:59] <fethe8> ok so its not that

[05:00] <Flannel> anand_: Please stop repeating.  20-30 minutes between repeats is a good metric.  Every few minutes is spam.
[05:00] <anand_> k sorry
[05:00] <macho> how do i get the ps3 ubuntu 7.10

[05:04] <Awsoonn> My brain just died, can someone tell me a package with recomended dependantcy?
[05:04] <mrpockets> sensitivity?
[05:04] <mrpockets> is mouse sensitivity
[05:05] <markus_uw> yup
[05:05] <mrpockets> and doesn't seem to effect the scroll wheel
[05:05] <robert-woes> there was an update with update manager and the new kernel *-20-generic won't boot.  It is just a black screen with a lot of nothing.  How do I figure out what's wrong?
[05:05] <myr> Awsoonn, just reboot
[05:06] <markus_uw> hmm... i'm not sure how to change the scroll wheel sensitivity
[05:06] <starn> can anyone help me? i just install nivdias drivers and now ubuntu has a white screen.. and kubuntu works fine.....
[05:06] <Flannel> robert-woes: Reboot, go to your GRUB menu (hit escape right after your POST screen) and go to an older kernel
[05:06] <Awsoonn> myr thanks
[05:06] <crimsun> robert-woes: which -20?  20.38 or 20.39?
[05:06] <mrpockets> markus_uw,  not something you'd think about too often
[05:06] <mrpockets> but outta no where it became touchy as hell, and its really annoying
[05:06]  * Awsoonn stops being lazy
[05:06] <robert-woes> Flannel, did that... i am on 19 now
[05:06] <robert-woes> crimsun, let me check
[05:07] <crimsun> robert-woes: sorry, I meant 20.37 or 20.38
[05:07] <robert-woes> crimsun, 37
[05:09] <robert-woes> crimsun, 20.37
[05:09] <markus_uw> hmm, i don't see anything poking around, and google isn't helping either... sorry mrpockets

[05:11] <markus_uw> Sake, you're using gnome-terminal?

[05:11] <Sake> I'm using the default terminal
[05:11] <harpreet> MoralExploit: type sudo apt-get update
[05:11] <Sake> markus_uw,  but just in general, how do I make the system beep not use the PC Speaker. I don't think it's terminal specific

[05:12] <legend2440> Sake: edit>current profile>uncheck terminal bell
[05:12] <MoralExploit> harpreet, I will give that a try thanks for helping a noob out :)
[05:12] <av> I was gonna say that I think it's dependent on you chipset
[05:12] <harpreet> MoralExploit: there is more to do
[05:12] <MoralExploit> oh ok
[05:12] <MoralExploit> ill keep watching
[05:13] <starn> markus_uw:  yes kde works

[05:17] <harpreet> ! Da_Nemesis
[05:17] <kajong> hello everybody
[05:17] <Da_Nemesis> lol
[05:17] <cellofellow> is there a way to get nm-applet to use the "login" keyring and not the "default" keyring?
[05:17] <Da_Nemesis> r there any other rooms?
[05:18] <harpreet> Da_Nemesis: wud u like to ask something?\
[05:18] <harpreet> Da_Nemesis: there are a lot of channels
[05:18] <gcarrillo> anybody know an easy way to bring all the shoutcast stations into rhythmbox, like itunes does it?
[05:18] <Da_Nemesis> and how do we search those channels or get into some?
[05:18] <cellofellow> gcarrillo: I use Exaile, has a standard plugin for shoutcast directory.
[05:19] <Sake> can't I bind apache in a way that only people on my LAN can connect?
[05:19] <cellofellow> Sake: yeah, it's easy
[05:19] <harpreet> Da_Nemesis: press alt+C and please type name of the person u asking question
[05:19] <gcarrillo> cellofellow: thanks, ill check it out
[05:20] <Da_Nemesis> harpreet sure.. thnks a lot
[05:20] <montpelie> hi everybody, what is the most proper way to get application dependencies such as libraries etc???
[05:20] <Sake> cellofellow, how do I do it?
[05:20] <montpelie> by issuing build-dep at the command line???
[05:20] <ejsilver26> Evening everyone.
[05:20] <cellofellow> Sake: in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default, in the Directory section for /var/www, set it to Order Deny, Allow; Deny from All, Allow from 192.168.0.
[05:20] <ganas> smile
[05:20] <ejsilver26> Anyone care to give me a quick hand with a sound issue?
[05:21] <cellofellow> Sake: there's a few linebreaks you need to put in that but you get the general idea.
[05:21] <montpelie> anybody???
[05:21] <harpreet> ejsilver26: lspci
[05:21] <Sake> cellofellow, what's the diff between sites-available and sites-enabled?
[05:21] <cellofellow> Sake: I do it for specific apps I host on Apache, not the whole site.
[05:21] <cellofellow> Sake: sites-enabled has links to files in sites-available, and it loads in alphabetical order I think.
[05:21] <Flannel> montpelie: just apt-get the package, and all the depends will be brough tin
[05:21] <ejsilver26> crimsun: You there? :)
[05:22] <cellofellow> Sake: so, sites-enabled all the files start with 001-name or 002-name, etc.
[05:22] <crimsun> ejsilver26: briefly
[05:22] <Sake> cellofellow,  so can I erase the file in sites-enabled and set up my working folder in sites-available?
[05:23] <cellofellow> /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/001-default links to sites-available/default. The httpd.conf file includes all the files in sites-enabled but not in sites-available.
[05:23] <ejsilver26> crimsun: I tossed in the live CD of 8.04, and the sound is working. Wondering what I should note down to aid in resolving my sound issues. I've done lsmod and modinfo on the main dound driver.. anything else?
[05:23] <lycannyc> how can I edit a pdf file and write into it ?
[05:23] <lycannyc> !pdf
[05:23] <harpreet> !pdf
[05:23] <cellofellow> lycannyc: Inkscape can edit PDFs one page at a time. And there is pdfedit
[05:24] <lycannyc> cellofellow, nothing comes default installed ?
[05:24] <cellofellow> lycannyc: and I hear OpenOffice 3 Beta can edit PDF.
[05:24] <Flannel> Sake: sites-enabled (and mods-enabled) is for symlinks to the sites/modules you want to have active.  sites/mods-available is for all of them (even if they aren't enabled).
[05:24] <cellofellow> lycannyc: PDF is primarily read-only.
[05:24] <lycannyc> oh
[05:24] <crimsun> ejsilver26: can you summarise?  I have no idea of the context.
[05:24] <Kardos> pdf not meant to be edited
[05:24] <lycannyc> yea this damn job sent me a pdf file and wanted me to fill in that application
[05:24] <Kardos> print it and write?
[05:24] <robert-woes> crimsun, I'm on 2.6.24-20-generic, but now it doesn't detect my video card -- ideas? (I am running in "low-graphics mode" now))
[05:25] <cellofellow> Sake: there are actually little scripts like a2enmod modulename to create the links for you.
[05:25] <robert-woes> crimsun, nvidia 6200 i think
[05:25] <crimsun> robert-woes: make sure linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) is also present and fully configured
[05:25] <Sake> Aaah, so you can't use a site until there's a symbolic link to it in sites-enabled, right?
[05:26] <ejsilver26> You were helping me with my sound issue yesterday. I upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04 and lost sound. It was suggested to throw in my live CD to see if the sound worked with the kernel. It aparently does. I was wondering what information may help me and others helping me to determine what changed and what I could do to fix the sound issue.
[05:26] <Flannel> Sake: Right.  -available stuff isn't active.
[05:26] <Sake> cool, pretty smart
[05:26] <Sake> alright, so I got eclipse running and apache. Now what else can I do with my shiny new ubuntu?
[05:26] <robert-woes> crimsun, checking...
[05:26] <cellofellow> Sake: yeah, and there's a2ensite and a2dissite to enable and disable sites.
[05:26] <Flannel> Sake: and like cellofellow mentioned, a2enmod a2dismod are for enabling/disabling modules
[05:26] <crimsun> ejsilver26: what's the output from `asoundconf list' while running a terminal from the desktop cd?
[05:27] <cellofellow> Sake: um, replace Apache with Tomcat so it works with Eclipse for your Java apps?
[05:27] <ejsilver26> crimsun: SI7012
[05:27] <cellofellow> Or can Tomcat be added to Apache?
[05:28] <robert-woes> crimsun, how do i check ?
[05:28] <[-Mabus-]> Anyone here have Kismet running on Ubuntu ?
[05:28] <cellofellow> !tomcat
[05:28] <cellofellow> someone slap the bot, it ought to know what tomcat is.
[05:28] <lycannyc> so no ways to edit and write to a pdf file
[05:29] <cellofellow> lycannyc: yes, there is. Inkscape, pdfedit
[05:29] <cellofellow> lycannyc: OOo3
[05:29] <ejsilver26> lycannyc: You can also open a pdf in Gimp and type onto it.
[05:29] <ejsilver26> lycannyc: I had to fill out some forms for my clearance, and that's how I did it.
[05:29] <AskForID> Is there away to assign a logical name to a wireless interface?
[05:30] <lycannyc> ejsilver26, gimp ?
[05:30] <ejsilver26> lycannyc: Yup... go figure.
[05:30] <lycannyc> cellofellow, who uses OOo3 ?
[05:30] <montpelie> ok Flannel, but how about if I'm installing from a tarball???
[05:30] <crimsun> robert-woes: dpkg -l linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)|grep ^ii
[05:30] <montpelie> not from the repositories
[05:30] <cellofellow> lycannyc: you can if you dare
[05:30] <crimsun> ejsilver26: ok.  In your actual Ubuntu install, do you receive the same output from that command?
[05:30] <jc> can anyone help me get php running with mod_fastcgi under apache.  I just can't seem to get it right
[05:30] <robert-woes> crimson, <IP_ADDRESS>-20.46
[05:31] <Sake> cellofellow, Ah, I'm ok with just php for now...
[05:31] <lycannyc> ejsilver26, lol i dont even know how to use gimp
[05:31] <ejsilver26> crimsun: : believe I did. It has always identified it as Si7012
[05:31] <lycannyc> cellofellow, whats the easiest?
[05:31] <crimsun> ejsilver26: can you ensure right now, please?
[05:31] <cellofellow> Sake: ok. Does Eclipse have good PHP support? The Python support is good but I'm not a PHP fellow.
[05:31] <ejsilver26> lycannyc: Neither did I. You open the pdf and it will open it mainly as a Graphic. Click on the text tool and write it out.
[05:31] <Intrepid> Where can I go to request a package for inclusion into the repos?
[05:31] <Sake> cellofellow, I added Allow from 192.168.,127.0.0. to my enabled-site and now it says I don't have permission...
[05:32] <robert-woes> crimsun, i just did sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-restricted-modules-generic
[05:32] <robert-woes> crimsun, should i reboot?
[05:32] <Sake> cellofellow, Yea, PDT is pretty slick if you take the time to configure it properly. I'm a big Eclipse fan. I used to use it for PERL as well
[05:32] <cellofellow> lycannyc: depends on the task. Try them out and see for yourself. pdfedit is a bit complicated but is a GUI.
[05:32] <ejsilver26> crimsun: I'll reboot. Is there any other commands that I should note the output of while I"m on the liveCD? I'm saving them to a network share on another pc.
[05:32] <lycannyc> cellofellow, i guess im screwed
[05:32] <lycannyc> but thanks i'll see what i can do
[05:33] <cellofellow> Sake: now, if Eclipse had a nice slick Django plugin, call me a happy camper.
[05:33] <Sake> in due time I'm sure.
[05:34] <Sake> I'm rocking cakephp for now.. surprisingly good
[05:34] <Sake> and super portable, it's nice
[05:34] <ejsilver26> crimsun: What about that alsa sh script... ?
[05:34] <cellofellow> For Django I'm just using a mixture of Gedit and Gvim.
[05:34] <u-abc> Hello guys. I'm using xubuntu8.04. I have a ATI card with double-head connected two LCD. The ati driver work well. When I type "DISPLAY=:0.0 xterm" in terminal, it work well; but "DISPLAY=:1.0 xterm" don't work, and the error message is "xterm Xt error: Can't open display: :1.0"
[05:34] <u-abc> . I don't know what's wrong
[05:34] <cellofellow> Vim has lovely syntax support for Django templates.
[05:34] <Sake> but before I do that... How come my Allow from 192.168.,127.0.0. doesn't work?
[05:34] <cellofellow> Sake: not sure, let me see what I put in my conf files so I can compare.
[05:34] <ejsilver26> Sake: Well, 1 too many numbers, and the comma doesn't help either. ;)
[05:35] <Sake> I don't understand how vim could work better than a point and click IDE like Eclipse... the class outlines alone are reason enough for me to stay
[05:35] <CiceroRiPi> Hi, im a newbee here and with the ubuntu, i'm using the 8,04 and i have a ATI 4870, and i cant figure out how to install the driver, help, plese!!
[05:35] <Sake> ejsilver26, so how do I do that? Do I need to have <IP_ADDRESS> in there?
[05:36] <cellofellow> Sake: use separate lines.  Rebooting.
[05:36] <cellofellow> Sake: it's language syntax support I want and Gvim delivers.
[05:36] <ejsilver26> BRB all
[05:36] <Sake> cellofellow, how do I allow everyone from 192.168.0.*, 192.168.1.* and 192.168.2.*? Can't I just put 192.168.* somehow?
[05:37] <vj23x> hello all!
[05:37] <cellofellow> Sake: oh, yeah, just leave out the .0
[05:37] <Sake> cellofellow, Interesting, I need to learn some power-tricks in vim..
[05:37] <cellofellow> Sake: but why open it up to all possible subnets?
[05:37] <JUMPER> i
[05:38] <[-Mabus-]> dir
[05:38] <[-Mabus-]> ops
[05:38] <[-Mabus-]> lol wrong window
[05:38] <JUMPER> any one know how to add a channel
[05:38]  * cellofellow is just happy with basic vim commands like :wq, :syntax enable, /searchterm, and ^u for deleting lines is nice.
[05:38] <Sake> cellofellow, simpler..
[05:38] <cellofellow> Sake: simpler? Since when were subnets simple?
[05:39] <Sake> alright alright, I just created an entry for .0, .1 and .2
[05:39] <Sake> anyways, as far as coding goes, I can't live without my ctrl->space, saves me so much time
[05:39] <cellofellow> Sake: Allow from 192.168 should just do the trick.
[05:40] <JUMPER> how can i find this channel  #irc-hispano
[05:40] <cellofellow> Sake: in vim its [Esc]:w, simple and quick.
[05:40] <JUMPER> can any one help me
[05:40] <vj23x> can anybody help me with my nvidia settings?
[05:40] <ManualOverDozer8> JUMPER: type /list     in your irc client
[05:40] <SebNaitsabes> !hispano
[05:40] <Sake> cellofellow, isn't that to save?
[05:40] <unop> write
[05:40] <Metatron> jumper type /list to see if it is on this server
[05:40] <cellofellow> Sake: vim calls "save" "write", as it ought to.
[05:41] <ejsilver26> Back
[05:41] <Atomhunter> Can anyone help me with this problem? I'm trying to run play movies and i get A/V desync.... any one know who to fix it..... I've just started with ubuntu
[05:41] <ejsilver26> crimsun: What was that command again, I'll make sure it matches. :)
[05:41] <cellofellow> Atomhunter: enabling framedrop on a slow machine can help.
[05:41] <SebNaitsabes> Atomhunter:  have you got the movie codecs installed?
[05:42] <Sake> cellofellow, yea, ctrl->space is something else... autocomplete. If I have Object->{ctrl->space}, then I get a list of all methods of that object I can use, without having to dig through codes or function lists.
[05:42] <JUMPER> ubuntu it is easy to use >>>
[05:42] <Atomhunter> I think i have the codecs, i don't have a slow machine..... It's build for gaming
[05:42] <SebNaitsabes> !multimedia
[05:42] <cellofellow> Sake: oh, autocomplete. Well, that stuff is hard to get right and sometimes downright annoying.
[05:42] <unop> Sake, in vim - you can setup tab to do that with omnicomplete
[05:42] <Atomhunter> i have hardy so i should have the codecs
[05:42] <cellofellow> unop: really? I need to get more into Vim.
[05:42] <SebNaitsabes> AVI's will not just play in hardy by default
[05:43] <SebNaitsabes> what file format are you trying to play?
[05:43] <Atomhunter> a blockbuster DVD... so AVI i think
[05:43] <chuck> hey, is there a makedbm tool for ubuntu server?
[05:43] <cellofellow> Most AVIs have Windows Media or MPEG video so they don't play without extra codecs.
[05:43] <SebNaitsabes> !dvd
[05:43] <SebNaitsabes> propritary DVD's wil not just play in Ubuntu
[05:43] <unop> cellofellow, i believe there is a supertab.vim vim script around. set it's up right for tab.
[05:43] <SebNaitsabes> encrypted DVD's will not just play in Ubuntu yes
[05:43] <cellofellow> Atomhunter: you need ubuntu-restricted-extras and libdvdcss2 to play dvds.
[05:43] <Sake> unop, Interesting... like I said, I need to look into vim a bit more.
[05:44] <Atomhunter> how do i get them?..... i'm a noob...
[05:44] <ajj> hi all, quick question: did anyone here request a free copy of ubuntu from the official website, if so...did it come quick?
[05:44] <Atomhunter> ajj: I did but it took a month
[05:44] <cellofellow> Atomhunter: install ubuntu-restricted-extras with Synaptic, and go to medibuntu.org to install libdvdcss2 and w32codecs while you're at it.
[05:44] <jhb1608> No. it will take 4 weeks.
[05:44] <chuck> hey, is there a makedbm tool for ubuntu server?
[05:45] <SebNaitsabes> Atomhunter:  follow the links  or   open a terminal  and sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2
[05:45] <Sake> is there a tortoiseSvn equivalent in linux?
[05:45] <SebNaitsabes> !info
[05:45] <ajj> a buddy of mine got it in 6 days
[05:45] <speedbaron> Atomhunter: go to this link http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-play-dvd-under-ubuntu-linux
[05:45] <SebNaitsabes> !info libdvdcss2
[05:45] <Finnish> How to check (Ubuntu) version in console?
[05:45] <unop> Sake, cellofellow - http://tinyurl.com/552bmd # supertab  also you might like the custom search engine that searches all sites vim-related
[05:45] <cellofellow> SebNaitsabes: libdvdcss2 isn't in the official repos.
[05:45] <jhb1608> it is depends on the location
[05:45] <chuck> bah, i'll just write my own ldap conversion scripts
[05:45] <SebNaitsabes> dellofellow:  oh right yeah since legal reasons
[05:45] <unop> !version | Finnish
[05:45] <Ms_Cathy> Version: Acidblood 1.2.18
[05:45] <speedbaron> you should have all the information there
[05:45] <SebNaitsabes> cellofellow:  I thought it might have been though
[05:46] <speedbaron> just got my working today
[05:46] <speedbaron> follow instructions
[05:46] <FAJALOU> hello i am trying to get the sims to work on my sister's ubuntu computer, wine sets it up and everything, but it will not run correctly, even with the cd in the disk.  I was thinking of using vmware and installing xp so that she can run her game, can anyone think of any better program, or way to go about this?
[05:46] <cellofellow> SebNaitsabes: hasn't ever been, since it's about the most hot-ticket non-free codec around. DVD Jon went to court and everything for it.
[05:46] <SebNaitsabes> have you looked in appdb.winehq.org
[05:47] <crimsun> ejsilver26: asoundconf list
[05:47] <FAJALOU> SebNaitsabes: it looks like it doesn't work through wine, at least from the forums...
[05:47] <SebNaitsabes> cellofellow:  hot ticket?
[05:47] <cellofellow> SebNaitsabes: good place to check if a program will work in Wine or not.
[05:47] <unop> FAJALOU, cedega might be able to do it - though it costs...
[05:47] <Atomicsunset> how do i access my usb hd via Virtualbox?
[05:47] <cellofellow> SebNaitsabes: illegal in the US, 100% illegal breaks DMCA and patents.
[05:47] <SebNaitsabes> cellofellow:  I just told him to check there
[05:47] <Sake> unop, thanks
[05:47] <vj23x> help! i can't run desktop acceleration (hardy 8.04.1)
[05:47] <FAJALOU> unop:  i hear that cedega can't do it either.
[05:47] <ajj> what's a good vendor of ubuntu (besides amazon.com) that is quick
[05:47] <FAJALOU> !explain | vj23x
[05:47] <ejsilver26> crimsun: Exactly the same.
[05:47] <cellofellow> vj23x: video card make and model is useful information.
[05:48] <SebNaitsabes> FAJALOU:  appdb.winehq.org  also  you should  try  #winehq  since this is not really an Ubuntu issue
[05:48] <sjovan> ajj: why use a vendor when you can just download it?
[05:48] <ajj> sjovan, i'm on dialup
[05:48] <vj23x> whenever i enable nvidia driver, i got a black screen on restart!
[05:48] <FAJALOU> SebNaitsabes:  wine ways it doesn't work, but it installs, correctly,,, what should i use to install xp inside ubuntu?
[05:48] <sjovan> ajj: then ask a friend or something to download it :)
[05:48] <SebNaitsabes> cellofellow:  well I don't live in the US :)
[05:48] <crimsun> ejsilver26: good.  Is audio still inaudible?
[05:48] <ajj> what are friends?
[05:48] <cellofellow> FAJALOU: I use VirtualBox.
[05:48] <SebNaitsabes> cellofellow:  I haven't used it myself yet though
[05:49] <SebNaitsabes> FAJALOU:  with some wine tweaking you may be able to get it working
[05:49] <FAJALOU> cellofellow:  and is it in the repos?  also is it hard to configure...
[05:49] <cellofellow> People with lawyers tend to use LinDVD or Fluendo DVD instead.
[05:49] <speedbaron> FAJALOU: you need to install a virtual machine
[05:49] <ajj> someone should mail me a copy :)
[05:49] <ejsilver26> crimsun: Yuppers.
[05:49] <FAJALOU> SebNaitsabes: the wine site shows it as not running.
[05:49] <crimsun> ejsilver26: does `sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils reset' help?
[05:49] <FAJALOU> speedbaron:  how so? never needed a vm before.
[05:49] <charliega> I just loaded ubuntu yesterday and am trying to get online with my Sprintcard (which is plugged into a pcmcia adapter plugged into a pci slot on my desktop.
[05:49] <speedbaron> FAJALOU: wine is an emulation
[05:49] <cellofellow> FAJALOU: The 100% Open Source Edition is in the repos. Extra features come with the closed source edition but it's still free and easy to install and dead easy to set up.
[05:49] <speedbaron> emulator
[05:50] <unop> Wine is not an emulator
[05:50] <olskolirc> ok now how do I take a snippit of a wave file and delete the rest?  what is a good program for that?
[05:50] <Metatron> ajj there is a request a cd form on the ubuntu web site
[05:50] <starn> anybody know why after installing nividia's drivers i now do not have opengl??
[05:50] <legend2440> ajj: send me your computer and i'll install it for you
[05:50] <FAJALOU> cellofellow:  what is the package name?
[05:50] <cellofellow> WINE is a Windows API implementation for UNIX-like systems on Intel-compatible processors. Makes Linux binary-compatible with Windows.
[05:50] <ejsilver26> crimsun: Actually.. yes.
[05:50] <speedbaron> FAJALOU: y? because wine is an emulator... so u can just install the actual programs
[05:50] <CiceroRiPi> Help: Driver for ATI 4870 on Ubuntu 8,04 x64, anyone?
[05:50] <unop> speedbaron, do you know what the acronym WINE stands for ? :)
[05:50] <cellofellow> FAJALOU: virtualbox or virtualbox-ose I think.
[05:51] <EnMasse187> guys i wanna convert wmvs/avi/xvid to windows media player 7/8/9 or zune format video what are my options
[05:51] <FAJALOU> speedbaron:  i tried installing the sims, and it installs, but does not run
[05:51] <davisw> WINE: WINdows Emulator
[05:51] <crimsun> ejsilver26: so, is the problem resolved now?
[05:51] <unop> cellofellow, that statement's a bit off -- makes linux binary compatible with windows?? eh
[05:51] <ejsilver26> crimsun: I have sound. Is there something I have to do to make it perminant, or is it done?
[05:51] <cellofellow> EnMasse187: I like WinFF, a GUI for FFMPEG. winff.com.
[05:51] <Andross> wine is not an emulator?
[05:51] <SidStudios> davisw: WINE: Wine Is Not An Emulator
[05:51] <crimsun> ejsilver26: it's done.
[05:51] <cellofellow> unop: with some windows apps
[05:51] <ejsilver26> crimsun: After 2 weeks, yes, it is! :)
[05:51] <Andross> but it is an emulator...
[05:51] <alan_m> !wine
[05:51] <speedbaron> FAJALOU: what is the error u r getting?
[05:51] <crimsun> ejsilver26: excellent.  Off I go.
[05:52] <unop> Andross, no, it's an implementation of the win32 api, it's not an emulator
[05:52] <EnMasse187> cellofellow: ill check it out thanks
[05:52] <cellofellow> unop: it doesn't make it source compatible, IE requireing a recompile without modification but it does make it so some Windows binaries see Linux as Windows.
[05:52] <alan_m> for all that are confused about what whine is theres the final answer :)
[05:52] <ejsilver26> crimsun: Thanks a bunch. You made my night.
[05:52] <alan_m> errr wine i mean.
[05:53] <FAJALOU> speedbaron:  it just quits out, i have tried the command in terminal, but no errors happen
[05:53] <OB1FoShoB> wanting to do some ubuntu videos, xvidcap doesn't want to capture cube and drops tons of frames, the hardware should be alright, did this all the time on windoze, any ideas, other prog alternatives?
[05:53] <unop> cellofellow, errm, slightly off again - but i'll defer as it's offtopic and pedantic
[05:53] <cellofellow> unop: ok, tell me in #ubuntu-offtopic where I'm off.
[05:54] <speedbaron> FAJALOU: the sims... what r the settings under WINE?
[05:54] <vj23x> !nvidia
[05:54] <FAJALOU> speedbaron:  there are a lot of settings under wine, i have it set as XP emulation
[05:54] <speedbaron> FAJALOU: i have ran into some directx problems
[05:54] <FAJALOU> speedbaron:  it says that it will not work on winehq
[05:55] <FAJALOU> speedbaron: sorry the error i get is Could not find the Sims data directory.
[05:55] <speedbaron> FAJALOU:  then you need to install virtualbox.. so as to install windows xp
[05:56] <ManualOverDozer8> if you install wine, how can you remove the virtual c:\ drive so ubuntu is back to what is was before ?
[05:56] <FAJALOU> speedbaron:  so there is no way around it?  it says something aobut not finding the data directory, can you direct it there?
[05:56] <SebNaitsabes> ManualOverDozer8: so you have a clean Wine install again?
[05:56] <ManualOverDozer8> so there is no virtual c:\ drive an all HDD space is accounted for
[05:56] <unop> ManualOverDozer8, delete the ~/.wine/drive_c/  directory (you might want to move it rather than delete it)
[05:57] <SebNaitsabes> you want to keep the WIne program itself, but get rid of everything else to do with it?
[05:57] <ManualOverDozer8> if need be yes
[05:57] <SebNaitsabes> just delete .wine
[05:57] <SebNaitsabes> open your home folder
[05:57] <ManualOverDozer8> i just want to try it, if i dont like it i want to be able to remove it
[05:57] <SebNaitsabes> view show hidden files
[05:57] <SebNaitsabes> and delete .wine
[05:57] <speedbaron> FAJALOU: none :-) because the game is probably using a registry entry
[05:57] <ManualOverDozer8> oh yes, easy enough, thank you
[05:57] <SebNaitsabes> or  move the .wine some where else.  and you do wine again and your using a new one
[05:58] <olskolirc> ok now how do I take a snippit of a wave file and delete the rest?  what is a good program for that?
[05:58] <SebNaitsabes> audacity I think
[05:58] <SebNaitsabes> I don't use audacity,  it's just  for stuff like that,
[05:58] <SebNaitsabes> I think that's the one people usaully recommend
[05:59] <olskolirc> thanks
[05:59] <unop> !info cutmp3

[06:06] <SebNaitsabes> oh I must have missed something then
[06:06] <jhb1608>  meant the tutorial
[06:06] <Starnestommy> mentat: i.e. chat.freenode.net/8001
[06:07] <ZStar> I really need to access my repos through synaptic package manager.. can someone please help me?
[06:07] <SebNaitsabes> ZStar:  sorting your repos is easy
[06:07] <SebNaitsabes> ZStar:  at least 3 ways you can do that
[06:07] <ZStar> actually
[06:07] <unop> SebNaitsabes, also, if you want someone to know the factoid you invoke is for them, use > or | .. as per !who
[06:07] <ZStar> right now I need to change my password to something stronger
[06:07] <ZStar> then I need to access my repo's
[06:07] <mentat> lets see if that works
[06:08] <nickrud> ZStar system->admin->users & groups, you can change your password there
[06:08] <FrozenFire> Is there a way to manual select a mirror when installing Ubuntu? I've been noticing the default mirror for my area has somehow been serving corrupt packages. One instance being that sun-java6-jre was corrupt, and only upon purging the downloaded package, then changing mirrors to redownload it, would it work.
[06:08] <bob3213243> unop it's not in home/nickolaus
[06:08] <ajhtiredwolf> Hey, having a huge problem in ubuntu, all of a sudden it will only let me use 640x480 resolution, i tried disabling the properiety driver, that didnt work, i turned it back on, now i can change up to 1024x 768 but i only see a corner of the screen. Using nvidia 8800gt
[06:08] <SebNaitsabes> unop:  yeah thanks for that,  I tend to forget the well  >  one
[06:08] <SebNaitsabes> ajhtiredwolf:  sounds like  as a resut of doing that X has gone wrong
[06:08] <montpelie> any good keylogger for hardy????
[06:08] <nickrud> FrozenFire you can change your sources source in system->admin->software sources, using the dropdown
[06:09] <unop> bob3213243, run this command exactly.   dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-package
[06:09] <FrozenFire> nickrud: I'm talking during the install
[06:09] <SebNaitsabes> montpelie:  lol  why you want one of those?  this is not Windows :)   keyloggers don't exist at all in Linux or are hard to find
[06:09] <unop> bob3213243, and then you should see the file at.  /home/nickolaus/my-package
[06:09] <ajhtiredwolf> SebNaitsabes, yeah somethings wrong with x, not sure what though as i didnt change anything, first time i rebooted it went bac kto normal, now it wont
[06:09] <nickrud> FrozenFire ah. For just one package, you mean?
[06:09] <FrozenFire> For the whole lot, nickrud
[06:09] <bob3213243> unop okay there it is.
[06:10] <ajhtiredwolf> SebNaitsabes, somethings always been a little iffy about it, white blocks every now and then.
[06:10] <FrozenFire> I have a feeling the mirror I'm using is serving corrupt packages.
[06:10] <SebNaitsabes> ajhtiredwolf:  ok well  you know Grub the bootloader?  there should be an option for recovery mode.  and you can probaby fix X with that
[06:10] <nickrud> FrozenFire choose a different time zone during the install, that will choose a different mirror.
[06:10] <bob3213243> unop okay now when I move it I just use term to open it ?
[06:10] <FrozenFire> nickrud: Ah, good thinking, thanks ;)
[06:10] <vj23x> hello again
[06:10] <unop> bob3213243, no, open the terminal and then execute this command.   sudo dpkg --get-selections < ~/my-packages
[06:11] <liviu> Good Morning!
[06:11] <montpelie> sebnaisabes how about "sudo lkl -l -k /home/name/.lkl/keymaps/us_km -o log.file"
[06:11] <ajhtiredwolf> SebNaitsabes, do you know how to get into recovery mode?
[06:11] <SebNaitsabes> yes from
[06:11] <SebNaitsabes> the Grub bootloader
[06:11] <SebNaitsabes> you should have an option
[06:11] <unop> bob3213243, provided ~/my-packages is where this file is at. if you saved it somewhere else like the desktop.  use   sudo dpkg --get-selections < /home/$USER/Desktop
[06:12] <ZStar> thanks  billion nickrud
[06:12] <ajhtiredwolf> SebNaitsabes, il try
[06:12] <unop> bob3213243, err.  sudo dpkg --get-selections < /home/$USER/Desktop/my-packages
[06:12] <vj23x> !nvidia
[06:12] <SebNaitsabes> mountpelie: why do you want a keylogger?
[06:12] <montpelie> may that work???, I suspect something illegal is going on and I need evidence, that's the main purpose
[06:12] <liviu> How to backup my entire system and transfer it to another hdd
[06:12] <ZStar> When I try to reload my synaptic it gives me an error message saying it can't find anything.  What the bit?
[06:12] <liviu> What's the fastest solution?
[06:12] <SebNaitsabes> mountpelie:  something illegal going on such as?
[06:12] <ZStar> How can I *make it work*
[06:13] <unop> !backup | liviu
[06:13] <nickrud> ZStar it gives a more detailed message than 'anything', I would expect
[06:13] <Jan|> when I install ubuntu desktop 8.0.4 x64 the loading screen just stops responding after a minute or so
[06:13] <ZStar> Well it can't find the repositories.  How can  I correct that?
[06:14] <unop> ZStar, are the ubuntu repos enabled?
[06:14] <nickrud> Jan| did you run the check disk function on the boot menu?
[06:14] <starn> anybody know why after installing nividia's drivers i now do not have opengl?? and can possibly help

[06:15] <ianm_> it seems SCIM got turned on, and now it's messing with stuff.  it just crashed or something and then half the apps got unresponsive.  had to relogin.  how do I disable it?
[06:15] <ManualOverDozer8> are all these errors using winecfg normal ?
[06:15] <Jan|> nickrud, yes it says 25 files aren't good?
[06:15] <montpelie> so can anybody give me a hand?
[06:15] <Jan|> nickrud, but I just burned it from the ubuntu site
[06:16] <liviu> Thanks guys! I'll take a good look at it!
[06:16] <Jan|> nickrud, 16x
[06:16] <nickrud> Jan| you need to reburn, at a slower speed (and verify the burn is good) after checking that your download is good, see the md5sum factoid I'm about to give
[06:16] <nickrud> !md5
[06:16] <speedbaron> monopelie: give u a hand with what?
[06:16] <Jan|> arg
[06:16] <Jan|> ok
[06:16] <ManualOverDozer8> burn at slower speed used to be the fix
[06:16] <ZStar> I get the same rotten error message ubottu :/

[06:24] <p3rti> pollopolis, init 0
[06:24] <nickrud> ZStar you will need to edit /etc/apt/sources.list and switch all your sources from archive.ubuntu.com  to   old-releases.ubuntu.com   , so you can get the latest version of the update manager. YOur best choice would be getting hardy, and doing a fresh install

[06:26] <speedbaron> charliega: what kind of help?
[06:27] <cycom> starn: hardy
[06:27] <OldToker> sourcefreak, Why Vmware?

[06:27] <backsideb> http://www.meine-nackte-ex.net/?uid=17891
[06:27] <EnMasse187> with converting avi/xvid videos to wmv
[06:28] <OldToker> EnMasse187, Why??? would you want to convert to a propritary format?
[06:28] <sourcefreak> OldToker: used virtual pc before just for xp and switched to vmware. haven´t made a good experience with virtualbox in the past
[06:28] <EnMasse187> because i have a zune
[06:28] <EnMasse187> aka windows ipod
[06:28] <EnMasse187> and i can't dual boot
[06:28] <mrtin> people help me out, i have my wireless light red like if it was offline, but im connected... whats the problem? Im in kernel 2.6.24-20
[06:28] <anindya> hi
[06:29] <OldToker> EnMasse187, * Sudders *  hummm I think if you look up ffmpeg you should be able to convert them.. but you will have to go to the MAN for help  Remember RIF...
[06:29] <nickrud> backsideb that page is not loading. I guess you'll have to give a short description of the problem here
[06:29] <speedbaron> anindya: hi
[06:29] <EnMasse187> OldToker: hey someone suggest winff
[06:30] <EnMasse187> OldToker: im trying it right now but it doesnt even tell you when it will be done with the video
[06:30] <OldToker> sourcefreak, hmmm.. ahh  well, ok :)  I haven't had any bad expeiriences with virtualbox.. except that you have to add yourself to the vboxusers  group.. in ubuntu.
[06:30]  * nickrud just spent a few hours with ffmpeg, and is lucky to be alive
[06:30] <charliega> My card is a pcmica card plugged into a pcmcia card adapter plugged into a pci slot on my desktop.  help I see online I think is geared toward this card plugged into a laptop.  here is a url where I was trying these commands with a result of file not found.  when I replace "usb" with "pci" I still get the same error.
[06:30] <EnMasse187> OldToker: whats bad about ffmpeg?
[06:31] <charliega> http://www.inspirecom.com/content/view/24/12/
[06:31] <OldToker> nickrud, hehehehe I didn't say it was the best.. but I think it at least works..
[06:31] <sourcefreak> OldToker: I´ll try vbox again, but I fail generally to install anything. that is my big problem. I´m not a friend of terminals :>
[06:31] <Killeroid> hi, i am already on ubuntu 8.04 . how do i install the whole kde4 desktop pckage so that, i can choose between kde and gnome when logging in?
[06:31] <OldToker> sourcefreak, that's the beauty of virtualbox..
[06:31] <OldToker> very little CLI
[06:31] <aa2277> Hello.
[06:31] <nickrud> OldToker oh, I got the job done. I do it just often enough that I think I remember what I am doing, but I learn quickly otherwise ;)
[06:31] <joe_-> I've off-loaded some folders to my SD card to help reduce load on the SSD but I need to have the mount setup early in the boot process, anyone know where I should put it?
[06:32] <Odd-rationale> Killeroid: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop-kde4
[06:32] <ajhtiredwolf> Hi im having a problem with the x server, my resolution is all messed up, i cant change it to anything but 640 x 480, i tried recover x that didnt work
[06:32] <legend2440> EnMasse187: read post by bluorder    http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-559229.html
[06:32] <OldToker> sourcefreak, you will also need to install the supplemental package for your current running kernel from your package manager.
[06:32] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, Nvidia?
[06:32] <ajhtiredwolf> OldToker: yeah
[06:32] <sourcefreak> OldToker: I´m just getting virtualbox :D not so fast. linux noob here
[06:32] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, did you use envy?
[06:33] <ajhtiredwolf> OldToker: nope not sure what that is
[06:33] <OldToker> sourcefreak, I'm a noob too :)
[06:33] <Odd-rationale> Killeroid: whoops. i mean kubuntu-kde4-desktop
[06:33] <OldToker> sourcefreak, ok perhaps a little more advanced noob..  but still a noob.
[06:33] <Odd-rationale> !envy
[06:33] <alan__> heyy what's up???
[06:33] <joe_-> Anyone know what I should do to make sure that I have themount setup before it launches into X? Otherwise I get some error with /tmp not being available
[06:33] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, it's a tool to install nvidia and ATI drivers.. there's a package for it in the package manager.
[06:33] <sourcefreak> OldToker: don´t worry. I´m the bottom of linux noob^^
[06:34] <ajhtiredwolf> OldToker: well the thing about my situation is that i already have them installed. But it just.. stopped working, one time when i rebooted it, it went back to normal resolution, but now it wont
[06:34] <OldToker> sourcefreak, we all start there at one point or another. :)  Welcome aboard.
[06:35] <speedbaron> charliega>: the quickest way is to reboot ur box with the card installed
[06:35] <ZStar> nickrud: how do I get the latest version of the update manager?  I edited my sources.list file appropriately.
[06:35] <class_> anyone can help me solve a compatibility problem between OO and word? it seems that some boxes in a table simply disapear when opened with Word
[06:35] <nickrud> ZStar ok, sudo apt-get install update-manager , that will pull in the latest version.
[06:35] <speedbaron> charliega>let linux probe the hardware and see what it comes up with
[06:36] <aa2277> i have a small xcfe application menu problem
[06:36] <nickrud> ZStar you did run sudo apt-get update already, right?
[06:36] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf,  ahhh sounds like you havin the same problem I did... my problem is that the changes to the xorg.conf were not being written because that file is owned by  root and the tool for what ever reason wasn't saving them as root.. so I made the changes by hand.. as root saved and rebooted.. perfect since. :)
[06:36] <aa2277> if anyone wishes to help lil ol me
[06:36] <charliega> thank you speedbaron
[06:36] <ajhtiredwolf> OldToker:  to the xorg.conf file?
[06:36] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: just ask... :)
[06:36] <ZStar> yeah it fail'd
[06:36] <aa2277> ah cool
[06:36] <aa2277> okay so when i click on the application menu
[06:36] <aa2277> it doesnt open
[06:36] <aa2277> nothing shows
[06:36] <charliega> speedbaron where do I look to see if it has found it
[06:37] <nickrud> ZStar hm, put a copy of your /etc/apt/sources.list  on  the pastebin
[06:37] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: please make it in one line so that it is easier to read. thanks!
[06:37] <nonix4> Anyone else noticed hald leaking memory? Mine is using 1.2 gigabytes (99% of that RSS) atm...
[06:37] <aa2277> yea im sorry about my typing style one second...
[06:37] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf,  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xorg.conf
[06:37] <ZStar> http://paste.ubuntu.com/31585/ same stuff
[06:37] <aa2277> When i click on the 'start menu', the xcfe application browser menu thing, nothing happens.
[06:38] <ajhtiredwolf> OldToker: yeah unfortuantely that isnt how my xorg.conf file looks :( it hasnt since i installed 8.04. Now it just has generic useless info
[06:38] <aa2277> this started happening about 2 hours ago after a few minor theme and mouse/keyboard setting changes.
[06:38] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: maybe you missing the menu file... do you have a menu file in ~/.config/xfce/...
[06:38] <nonix4> ... also "haldaemon" username seems to be too long for "ps" to display it, thus ps resorts to numbers. top on the other hand cuts the n.
[06:38] <nickrud> ZStar you didn't change your sources. Put a copy of /etc/apt/sources.list on the pastebin
[06:39] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, Like I said.. I was having the same issue with my xorg.conf..  was being changed.. but not saved..  so I had to save the changes by hand..
[06:39] <aa2277> yes the default menu file is still in there. It appears to be using that, but still nothing opens, ive checked and the file does exist
[06:39] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, at least it sounds like my issue..
[06:39] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, may not necessarily be what you are experiencing :)
[06:40] <Hitsman> I can't activate the visual effects to normal  , what to do
[06:40] <ajhtiredwolf> OldToker: hmmm actually now my xorg.conf is dispalying some useful info. If I pastebin it woudl you mind taking a look at it and guessing what would need to be cahnged?
[06:40] <new-user-> hi all
[06:40] <aa2277> This is very frustrating
[06:40] <OldToker> well that's always a good idea.. :)
[06:40] <SidStudios> Hitsman: Do you have your graphics card drivers correclty installed?
[06:40] <OldToker> I may not know.. but someone in here might.
[06:40] <new-user-> how can i show the NTFS drivers content ?
[06:40] <aa2277> I have to Alt+F2 just to run any program or open settings

[06:41] <R2P> Hey guys, I'm having trouble mounting a windows share, can someone help? Probably user error since I'm not very experienced in linux. =P
[06:41] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: hmm. have you tried renaming the ~/.config/xfce directory? then logging out and back in?
[06:41] <speedbaron> charliega> ifconfig
[06:42] <ajhtiredwolf> http://pastebin.ca/1086007
[06:42] <aa2277> odd: Renaming?....wouldnt that cause issues?
[06:42] <speedbaron> charliega> that should list all the interfaces available
[06:42] <J-_> http://www.cuil.com/ New search engine!
[06:42] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, I'm not using ubuntu... but it's a dirivitive of it.. so should be mostly the same.
[06:42] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: doubt it... if so, just delete the new folder and rename it back...
[06:42] <aa2277> i mean im kind of new at all of this, im not exactly a tech whiz in the first place, if theres an issue that keeps me from even opening internet or IRC then im screwed and have to reinstall.
[06:42] <speedbaron> charliega> this is a wireless modem right?
[06:42] <ManualOverDozer8> what version should i choose for WINE ? does it matter much, they suppose to be backward compat ?
[06:42] <unop> R2P, how are you attempting to mount the share?
[06:42] <nickrud> ZStar you need to change all of the archive.ubuntu.com to old-releases.ubuntu.com , not just some of them ;)
[06:43] <ManualOverDozer8> i go #wine
[06:43] <aa2277> odd: is it possible to refresh the menu file?
[06:43] <Flannel> aa2277: irssi is a command line irc client, w3m is a command line web browser
[06:43] <speedbaron> charliega> if u have all the wireless packages is installed
[06:43] <aa2277> flannel: ? why do you mention?
[06:43] <FAJALOU1> is there a way to use virtualbox to boot an already installed os on a different partition?
[06:43] <OldToker> ajhtiredwolf, BRB
[06:43] <nickrud> ZStar just so you know, if you upgrade from edgy to feisty, you'll have this very issue in october. feisty reaches eol then. I would strongly recommend you just get hardy and install that
[06:43] <R2P> unop: I've tried using this sites instructions: http://cri.ch/linux/docs/sk0001.html   and this sites:   http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-to-mount-remote-windows-partition-windows-share-under-linux.html      both fail at the mount command.
[06:43] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: try renaming the ~/.config/xfce directory. and logging out. it should automatically recreate itself again...
[06:44] <Flannel> aa2277: In case your GUI breaks, you'll know how to come here and get help fixing it (instead of reinstalling).  You'll need to install irssi, but w3m is installed by default
[06:44] <unop> FAJALOU1, no unfortunately
[06:44] <SebNaitsabes> ManualOverDozer8:  i'll private message you since  Wine support is off topic really in this channel
[06:44] <aa2277> oh, i see.
[06:44] <unop> R2P, whats the error you get? that's important
[06:44] <Odd-rationale> Flannel: i prefer weechat and links ;)
[06:44] <FAJALOU1> unop: so you need the iso for vb to run.... is there a packaged to get an already installed os to run?
[06:44] <nickrud> ZStar you can preserver nearly your entire package install list, and replicate it with !cloning
[06:44] <nickrud> !clone | ZStar

[06:44] <Flannel> Odd-rationale: w3m is installed by default
[06:45] <ZStar> yeah I'm gonna order a CD and just wait it out :) thanks
[06:45] <ajhtiredwolf> brb too
[06:45] <nickrud> ZStar you can download and burn it, of course.
[06:45] <unop> R2P, ok, now let's look at the command.
[06:45] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: in your home folder. you might have to go to view --> show hidden files...
[06:45] <EnMasse187> guys i need to convert avi to wmv7/8/9 what are my options?
[06:45] <unop> FAJALOU1, hmm, i don't think so
[06:45] <Odd-rationale> Flannel: yeah i know...
[06:45] <FAJALOU1> hmm shoot ok thanks unop
[06:45] <R2P> unop:  sudo mount -t cifs //ServBoard2/Stuffs -o username=Rent2Pwn,password=skhorpion /mnt/sb2     ive also tried that replacing cifs with smbfs
[06:46] <aa2277> Odd: okay, renaming. If i /quit my blood is on your hands ;)
[06:46] <unop> R2P, try this.  sudo mount -t cifs -o username=Rent2Pwn,password=skhorpion //ServBoard2/Stuffs /mnt/sb2
[06:47] <dimos> My Sound isn't working when it comes to linux but i can hear normally in Mozilla Stream and stuff
[06:47] <R2P> unop: same error
[06:47] <dimos> any1 could help?
[06:47] <mrglinux> I have some problem with run level I think .. when linux come uo before login I have to go to the tty1 and run these command > "sudo /etc/init.d/dbus restart" after that "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart" if I don't my partion's doesn't mount and I face to many problems ... what do you think about my problem ?
[06:48] <Odd-rationale> EnMasse187: try http://www.zamzar.com/
[06:48] <unop> R2P, try this.  smbclient //ServBoard2/Stuffs
[06:48] <aa2277> odd: rename the entire .config directory or just a subdirec?
[06:48] <unop> R2P, actually.  smbclient -L //ServBoard2/Stuffs
[06:49] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: either. i would do the entire ~/.config dir but doing just ~/.config/xfce is probably safer...
[06:49] <x5x-ubuntu> hi all
[06:49] <Odd-rationale> hi, x5x-ubuntu
[06:49] <FrozenFire> Is anyone familiar with Xorg configuration? I'm trying to install and configure evtouch for my touchscreen monitor (http://www.conan.de/touchscreen/evtouch.html), however the methods described on the mentioned website cause the regular mouse and keyboard to be disabled.
[06:49] <R2P> unop: that doesnt work, however, smbclient -L //ServBoard2 -U Rent2Pwn does
[06:50] <aa2277> alright
[06:50] <mrglinux> also I could not turn off my sstem means when I click on turn off button my system hangs if I don't run those commands
[06:50] <Darknezz> hey
[06:50] <aa2277> i changed it from xfce 4 to xfce and then back again
[06:50] <Darknezz> nice people are talking on here :)
[06:50] <aa2277> now i shall log out and try to log back in, see if anything is fixed :D
[06:50] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: no don't change it back..
[06:51] <Darknezz> woops wrong channel :-S
[06:51] <mrglinux> no idea  ?
[06:51] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: change it to something else then log out. like change xfce4 to xfce4.bak and leave it like that. then log out
[06:51] <unop> R2P, hmm, are you able to list files on that share when you use nautilus?
[06:51] <R2P> unop: Nope, says its empty without even asking for username/password
[06:52] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: you still here? got that?
[06:52] <unop> R2P, is that share under your control?
[06:52] <charliega> speedbaron yes, it is a sprint Merlin s620 EV-DO wireless modem
[06:52] <R2P> unop: Yes it is, its running on widows server 2003
[06:52] <R2P> windows*
[06:53] <speedbaron> charliega> ok.. ifconfig should list it
[06:53] <speedbaron> charliega> as an interface
[06:53] <suilenroc> Hey all. New Ubuntu user here, name of Suilenroc. I'm new to this whole IRC thing, but I just wanted to thank any of you here in the #ubuntu channel who've helped create this great OS. It's pretty much replaced my vista install entirely, disregarding my off TF2 fix every now and then.
[06:53] <unop> R2P, have you ensured that atleast "Authenticated users" have ability to read that share and read the directory associated with the share?
[06:54] <aa2277> Odd_
[06:54] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: yeah?
[06:54] <OldToker> suilenroc, well it's got it's advantages.. and it's drawbacks..  namely gaming support.
[06:54] <aa2277> still broken, and it changed my background settings
[06:54] <R2P> unop: When I had XP installed (few hours ago), I did have access to it after supplying credentials.
[06:54] <aa2277> Do you know if theres a way to restore default settings?
[06:54] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: did you change it? and change it back. then logged out?
[06:54] <aa2277> really id completely reinstall the operating system if i didnt just put on 24 gb a few weeks ago
[06:54] <aa2277> yup
[06:55] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: no don't change it back..
[06:55] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: change it to something else then log out. like change xfce4 to xfce4.bak and leave it like that. then log out
[06:55] <aa2277> oh
[06:55] <aa2277> Well here we go again
[06:55] <x5x-ubuntu> suilenroc: what computer did you replace it on - asking couse I will HP Pavilion dv7-1070eo buy and install ubuntu on that laptop
[06:56] <suilenroc> Aye. Now, I've heard alot about WINE, and the fact that it's recently released it's 1.0 distribution seems nice. Is it advanced enough yet to run a steam game at full graphics and good framerates?
[06:56] <OldToker> suilenroc, Wine is shakey at best.. some games work and some don't
 not really
[06:57] <SidStudios> suilenroc: Depends which game.
[06:57] <OldToker> suilenroc, there are other alternatives commercial ventures.. so I won't push them.. that are specialized for gamers..
[06:57] <x5x-ubuntu> suilenroc: but go to wine and ask for that :) I got cod4 to work ubuntu wine 1.0
[06:57] <suilenroc> x5x-ubuntu, I replaced it on a custom built computer that I made on my own. 8800gt GeForce, AMD 5600+, 4 gigs of RAM
[06:57] <charliega> Thank you speedbaron, I will try this tomorrow.  I am completely new to linux but am so sick of windows.  I appreciate the help and community spirit here.
[06:57] <SidStudios> suilenroc: I've played Warcraft III (not steam, but on full specs) and CS 1.6/Source which worked quite well
[06:57] <charliega> bye
[06:58] <x5x-ubuntu> suilenroc:  cool !
games that use heavy directx will fail
[06:58] <suilenroc> sidstudios, not bad, css is the same engine as TF2.
[06:58] <aa2277> alright, odd_:
[06:58] <OldToker> suilenroc, I played WoW.. and now Guildwars.. with wine
[06:58] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: no luck?
[06:58] <elo_> is there something in gnome that is similar to plasmoids in kde?
[06:58] <suilenroc> speedbaron, do you know if Team Fortress Two is one of those games?
[06:58] <aa2277> Its still broken, and it recreated the xfce4 folder
[06:58] <aa2277> so now i have xfce.bak and xfce
[06:58] <suilenroc> oldtoker, how did they run?
[06:58] <aa2277> should i delete the renamed one?
[06:58] <unop> R2P, so smblient is able to list the share?
[06:58] <OldToker> WoW, is almost flawless..
[06:58] <SidStudios> suilenroc: Oh, didn't know that
u r welcome: linux can be pain but better than windows
[06:58] <mrglinux> no solution ?
[06:58] <aa2277> or maybe move it to an external or something, and try to boot from the new one?
[06:59] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: first of all. did it work?
[06:59] <OldToker> Guildwars is extreemly playable.. but has some minor graphical disturbances.
[06:59] <suilenroc> Sorry, I'm new to this IRC thing, i've figured out that typing in a persons name at the beginning targets messages to them. Can everyone see those messages, or only the people it's targetted at.
[06:59] <aa2277> no :(
[06:59] <unop> R2P, maybe you could try smbmount - not sure that makes much of  a difference, but worth a shot anyway
[06:59] <R2P> unop: Yes, it lists all share names on the box and even the OS it's running on.
[06:59] <SidStudios> Oldtoker: You have guildwars? :p
[06:59] <OldToker> SidStudios, Yep
[06:59] <suilenroc> sidstudios, yeah, it's based on the Source engine.
[06:59] <x5x-ubuntu> suilenroc: for wine http://appdb.winehq.org/
[06:59] <suilenroc> Well, I guess that answers my questions. :)
[06:59] <OldToker> suilenroc, everyone sees them they highlighted in red for the person they directed to :)
[06:59] <suilenroc> I mean, the question for the direction of messages.
[06:59] <SidStudios> OldToker: Nice, which ones do you have ON UBUNTU LINUX? *keeps this on-topic*
[07:00] <suilenroc> OldToker, ah, thanks.
[07:00] <OldToker> I'm on LinuxMint
[07:00] <suilenroc> Ahah, sorry. >.>
[07:00] <speedbaron> suilenroc> Team fortress two: might not work...  i have it... i could try it
[07:00] <R2P> unop: Is smbfs required to mount a windows share?
[07:00] <SidStudios> ...
[07:00] <unop> R2P, you mean the packages?
[07:00] <suilenroc> One thing I've noticed in Ubuntu is that my firefox seems to be loading pages quite slowly. It takes quite a while to resolve the page. Does anyone know how to fix that?
[07:00] <aa2277> odd_: sorry about that
[07:00] <R2P> unop: Yes
[07:00] <x5x-ubuntu> suilenroc: Team fortress two - http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=5823
[07:01] <OldToker> Ubuntu derivative..
[07:01] <PryMaL_Work> who's asking about tf2?
[07:01] <PryMaL_Work> I have it working on WINE
[07:01] <suilenroc> x5x-ubuntu, awesome, thanks.
[07:01] <elo_> is there something in gnome that is similar to plasmoids in kde?
[07:01] <OldToker> just alot less configuration and running around for repo's to get some multimedia stuff working.. as it's enabled out of the box.
[07:01] <speedbaron> suilenroc> ipv6
[07:01] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: maybe we should be more aggressive... why don't you move the .config directory to the trash. and then log out...
[07:01] <x5x-ubuntu> suilenroc:  np :) been new to :)
[07:01] <OldToker> elo_, I belive that you'd be looking for superkaramba
[07:01] <aa2277> ?!
[07:01] <lebutcherpc> hey how is every body doing
[07:01] <unop> R2P, no
[07:01] <lebutcherpc> one question
[07:01] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: hey, i've done it many times...
[07:01] <aa2277> hold on, let me compare the folder contents between the one i renamed and the new one i created
[07:02] <elo_> but superkaramba doesnt become transparent or take different themes does it?
[07:02] <suilenroc> I've disabled ipv6, it's still slow.
[07:02] <SidStudios> suilenroc: As opposed to?
[07:02] <OldToker> elo_, I honestly couldn't answer that one..
[07:02] <aa2277> yea, from the look of it, now that i think about it it might just recreate the whole directory, effectly changing it to default, right?
[07:02] <OldToker> elo_, Sry.. :(
[07:02] <elo_> i remember using superkaramba in the past and it doesnt come close to the visible level of plasma
[07:02] <lebutcherpc> having problems with my internet
[07:02] <unop> R2P, funny, i get the same error you get trying to mount  a share on this machine
[07:02] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: yep...
[07:02] <suilenroc> sidstudios, ?
[07:03] <lebutcherpc> my computer frezzes every time i use the internet
[07:03] <aa2277> okay odd_: im deleting it.....here we go :(
[07:03] <SidStudios> suilenroc: You said Firefox was slow, as opposed to what? FF on Windows? Opera?
[07:03] <R2P> unop: :-(
[07:03] <aa2277> wait, you said delete .config? or just move it into the trash
[07:03] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: either...
[07:03] <aa2277> ah
[07:03] <suilenroc> SidStudios, ah, I see. It's slow compared to FF on windows. Much slower. Even IE is faster.
[07:03] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: just get rid of it... :)
[07:03] <OldToker> SidStudios, Since I don't play WoW anymore  * I couldn't stand paying for it over and over and over *  So Guildwars is what I have now installed,  just to answer your earlier question..
[07:04] <aa2277> bbiab :)
[07:04] <SidStudios> OldToker: Meh, it sucks that lvl 20 is the maximum for GuildWars, even on UBUNTU/LINUX MINT :-\
[07:04] <SidStudios> suilenroc: Strange, IE is supposed to be faster anyways
[07:05] <OldToker> SidStudios, The game doesn't even get started till level 20.. I know seems wierd.. but it's true..  and it runs good on my *buntu clone :)
[07:05] <aa2277> odd_: I just figured out something that may help, when i click on the xfce4 menu, it appears to open something, but its just a little like 3x3 dark box with black borders
[07:05] <aa2277> bbia second
[07:05] <chrisfromgreece> Help with OpenOffice 2,4
[07:05] <unop> R2P, actually. i was wrong, you do need smbfs as it's the package that contains mount.smbfs and mount.cifs
[07:05] <suilenroc> SidStudios, well, not that faster. I'm talking about having to wait 30 seconds for a page to load in FF on Ubuntu, versus instant load on Windows
[07:05] <x5x-ubuntu> SidStudios::  you mean this game ? GuildWars http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=9194
[07:05] <OldToker> SidStudios, is there an Off-topic *buntu chan?
[07:06] <unop> !ot

[07:08] <R2P> unop: Same effect
[07:09] <unop> R2P, ok, you need some way of resolving this name to it's ip address - the easiest way is to add an entry for this host in /etc/hosts
[07:09] <richc> hey all
[07:09] <chrisfromgreece> Help with Openoffice 2,4 Can't show icons on toolbars! It shows only text istead of icons on the toolbars!!!!
[07:10] <unop> R2P, but doing so makes a static entry .. if that host receives IP addresses via dhcp, then you would need to configure winbind/nmbd (part of samba) for broadcast resolution - or setup a DNS server that hosts can update with their hostnames

[07:12] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: any luck?
[07:12] <SidStudios> Starnestommy: Meh, didn't realise :p Thanks
[07:12] <aa2277> nope.
[07:12] <aa2277> did you see what i said before i quit? about the little box
[07:12] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: hmm. right click the applictions menu and select edit.
[07:12] <unop> R2P, there is no bash command for the "regular text editor" .. but ubuntu has nano
[07:13] <aa2277> yes, there
[07:13] <myr> vim!
[07:13] <infinitycircuit> R2P, "editor" is the default you can change it with sudo update-alternatives --config editor
[07:13] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: anything listed there? or is the list empty?
[07:13] <khmer42> Is there any easy way to make a copy of you current Ubuntu setup and turn it into an installation disk? I have been evaluating Ubuntu for our office and we are ready to make the switch, but would like to just burn a disk of the optimal setup and use that to do the install on each machine.
[07:13] <m0u5e> well someone check my bug report (found here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/252817) and confirm it?

[07:14] <lebutcherpc> computer freezes when i go to youtube on firefox
[07:14] <unop> R2P, but bash allows this.   echo "ip.add.re.ss  hostname" >> /etc/hosts  # you would need to run it under sudo tho, which makes it a little diffiicult
[07:14] <m0u5e> its something that has personally troubled me for a long time now, and I think the current selection method in gnome is ridiculous
[07:14] <lebutcherpc> can you help me
[07:15] <lebutcherpc> can you help me
[07:15] <m0u5e> lebutcherpc: do you have backports enabled? because there is a beta flash in backports that is really really bad...

[07:20] <lebutcherpc> aparently it is installed
[07:20] <aa2277> odd_: nothing :(
[07:20] <lebutcherpc> what do i do now
[07:20] <aa2277> im going to go hang myself before ill reinstall over a broken xfce menu lol
[07:21] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: did you change any permission to the folder or anything?
[07:21] <m0u5e> lebutcherpc: well what you can do is go int system>administration>synaptic and completely remove flashplugin-nonfree
[07:21] <lebutcherpc> ok so i have to remove it
[07:22] <m0u5e> lebutcherpc: and this time, press ctrl+E and specify which version you would like to install
[07:22] <m0u5e> lebutcherpc: then lock the package
[07:22] <m0u5e> !pinning | lebutcherpc
[07:22] <sugi> how do I check direct rendering in the terminal?
[07:22] <m0u5e> sugi: glxinfo | grep -i direct rendering
[07:23] <tobago> do you know a good program flow chart tool?
[07:23] <lebutcherpc> hey thanks for the help i will try it and let you know what happens
[07:23] <m0u5e> ubuntu users frustrated with gnome's multiple file selection method (no ctrl+shift click!) please visit https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/252817 and support the bug :)
[07:23] <tobago> i mean a specialized tool (NOT open office)
[07:23] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: another thing you can try is adding another user and seeing of the same problem exists...
[07:23] <Odd-rationale> tobago: try dia ?
[07:24] <Odd-rationale> !info dia
[07:24] <myr> m0u5e, i commented on your bug report
[07:24] <m0u5e> myr: ty :)
[07:24] <tobago> Odd-rationale, i'll take a look on it.
[07:25] <Bogus8> why does emacs need X11-common?
[07:26] <unop> Bogus8, xemacs might be pulled in, and xemacs requires X
[07:26] <Flannel> Bogus8: "emacs" depends on emacs22-gtk or emacs22, or emacs-nox
[07:26] <Bogus8> unop: I don't want/need that... I'm running a headless system here
[07:26] <Flannel> Bogus8: so, install emacs-nox, then emacs
[07:27] <Flannel> er, emacs22-nox, excuse me.
[07:27] <Bogus8> Flannel: ok, cool... pretty new to emacs and installing ubuntu for the first time since starting to use emacs
[07:27] <henry> hi
[07:27] <Flannel> Bogus8: I'm sorry.
[07:27] <Flannel> !offtopic | Flannel
[07:27] <Odd-rationale> aa2277: other than that, my guess it is just as good as yours... i have to head out now. hope you get fixed... good luck!
[07:28] <Bogus8> Flannel: sorry, why?
[07:28] <Guest76140> do you install zimbra b4?
[07:28] <Flannel> Bogus8: for offtopic tongue-in-cheek reasons
[07:28] <Bogus8> figured that :p
[07:29] <Bogus8> so this nox version won't be "meta packaged" right?
[07:29] <Flannel> Bogus8: What do you mean "metapackaged"?
[07:29] <unop> !info emacs22-nox
[07:29] <sourcefreak> how do I install mono under 8.04 ?
[07:29] <unop> !info emacs
[07:29] <Flannel> sourcefreak: If you have Ubuntu, it already is installed
[07:29] <Bogus8> Flannel: I am assuming things like mysql-server being "meta package" means it will be the latest anytime it's updated?
[07:30] <sourcefreak> ok and where do I find it or the docs ?
[07:30] <unop> Bogus8, even meta packages are subject to being updated
[07:30] <Flannel> Bogus8: not all metapackages work like that (just the kernel).  Metapackages are useful for upgrading between releases mostly (and then the ease of installing related, but non-dependant packages)
[07:31] <Bogus8> unop: actually I'm assuming they are... that they are updated where as strict version installs wouldn't be
[07:31] <Flannel> Bogus8: emacs22 for instance, might become emacs23 in Intrepid, so without the "emacs" package, you won't get 23 when you upgrade.
[07:31] <Bogus8> Flannel: that makes sense
[07:31] <Flannel> Bogus8: But, for all of Hardy, you'll get update to emacs22
[07:31] <m0u5e> myr: my explanation was a little bit rudimentry, i am replying with a more detailed scenario
[07:31] <unop> Bogus8, well, if a metapackge pulls in dependencies, apt knows of them and will try to update them anyway
[07:31] <Bogus8> thanks
[07:32] <wbmj> sourcefreak: may I suggest Monodoc browser
[07:32] <Flannel> Bogus8: but, you probably ought to install the "emacs" package anyway.  Once you have the nox version installed, it won't try and install -gtk
[07:32] <Bogus8> I probably should reinstall systems more often so I don't forget everything I used to know a year 8 months ago ;)
[07:32] <junai1> i can not record my sound although i enable the mic
[07:32] <Bogus8> Flannel: I'll give it a run and see what happens
[07:32] <sourcefreak> wbmj: I just installed ubuntu under virtialbox to test a .net application under linux. I´m pretty much a linux noob tbh
[07:32] <myr> m0u5e, all righty
[07:33] <soreiser> buongiorno a tutti
[07:33] <junai1> i can not record my sound although i enable the mic
[07:33] <soreiser> ops sorry i thought i were in the italian channel
[07:33] <wbmj> sourcefreak:Monodoc browser can be install via Synaptic.
[07:33] <soreiser> *was
[07:34] <Bogus8> Flannel: fyi, you were correct, it just installed emacs and nothing more after the nox install
[07:34] <sourcefreak> wbmj: found it via adept
[07:35] <wbmj> sourcefreak:great....hope it helps
[07:35] <m0u5e> myr: responded with a much more detailed post and screenshot
[07:35] <Bogus8> one more OT question... when the site says that hardy will be supported till 2011 what exactly does that entail?
[07:35] <Bogus8> (server version obviously)
[07:36] <zvacet> Bogus8 : you will get security updates until 2011 for server version
[07:36] <wbmj> Bogus8: actually 2011 is desktop 2013 is server
[07:36] <Bogus8> wbmj: I stand corrected (eyes were crossed ;) )
[07:36] <zvacet> wbmj . you are right
[07:37] <Bogus8> zvacet: how long will regular updates continue?
[07:37] <Bogus8> just till intrepid comes out?
[07:37] <sourcefreak> dumb question but how do I run an app as admin ?
[07:37] <Bogus8> sourcefreak: sudo
[07:37] <unop> Bogus8, till 2011/2013
[07:37] <wbmj> sourcefreak:sudo app
[07:37] <Starnestommy> sourcefreak: sudo <program> if it's not graphical
[07:37] <Starnestommy> sourcefreak: gksudo <program> if it is
[07:37] <Bogus8> unop: I mean, new versions of apps and such
[07:37] <Bogus8> say irssi
[07:37] <zvacet> Bogus8 : you can use hardy after interpig comes out
[07:38] <unop> Bogus8, same :)
[07:38] <m0u5e> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/252817 i hope this is much easier to understand
[07:38] <Bogus8> well, some distro's drop all new support and don't create any new packages unless it's security related after it's 6 month (or whatever) cycle
[07:38] <Flannel> Bogus8: LTS releases are supported for 3 years on the desktop, 5 years on the server.  non-LTS is 18 months on the desktop
[07:38] <sourcefreak> gksutried gksudo adept and nothing happens :(
[07:38] <unop> Bogus8, same with ubuntu unless it is an LTS
[07:38] <wbmj> Bogus8: Ubuntu has mostly security updates with LTS....occasionally a backport is added
[07:38] <CoolFox> hey, anybody know the package that installs the terminal version of Emacs?
[07:39] <Flannel> CoolFox: emacs22-nox
[07:39] <Bogus8> lol
[07:39] <CoolFox> i typed in emacs and now it runs one with a gui.
[07:39] <Bogus8> CoolFox: you walked in 5 mins late :)
[07:39] <bob3213243_> how do I play rmvb files in ubuntu?
[07:40] <CoolFox> Bogus8, how so?
[07:40] <Bogus8> wbmj: so it's similar to others... will the backports be automatic or will I need a backport repos for them?
[07:40] <CoolFox> the discussion already took place?
[07:40] <Bogus8> CoolFox: I basically just asked the same question ;)
[07:40] <unop> Bogus8, the latter.
[07:40] <CoolFox> LOL
[07:40] <m0u5e> bob3213243_: install mplayer and w32codecs off medibuntu
[07:40] <Bogus8> unop: poo... I was hoping that wouldn't be the case... guess I can't have it all
[07:41] <unop> Bogus8, the backports are there to provide newer versions of packages that are really really needed in an older release -- and that's mainly a desktop issue and as such there aren't many backports for packages on a server release
[07:42] <Bogus8> unop: I understand.. I just thought it might have longer support all around... I use my "server" for irssi and a few other nic nacs.. but it runs headless and minimal
[07:43] <zvacet> Bogus8 : you can enable backports in your source list right now by removing # sign from backports lines   sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[07:43] <Flannel> Bogus8: You'll be fine.  I'm on Dapper.  See !prevu for how to backport stuff on your own if you need it (I've done sobby, and considered mpd for a while)
[07:43] <unop> Bogus8, well, i'd say you won't be missing much - or even anything at all - with the backports repo missing
[07:43] <Bogus8> zvacet: nice, I glanced at the apt source... but didn't look very long... didn't see that it had backports already.. that's handy
[07:44] <tanner_> Hello I could use some help
[07:44] <Flannel> Bogus8: generally a good idea to stay away from adding the backports repo, instead just pull in any packages you need.
[07:44] <Bogus8> Flannel: I run mpd on an OLD sid box
[07:44] <Bogus8> will eventually move it when I build my house
[07:44] <tobago> does somebody know DIA for creating program flow charts?
[07:44] <m0u5e> people who have experienced problems with gnome's multiple file/folder select please check out this bug and offer feedback https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/252817
[07:45] <sourcefreak> sudo adept_manager it was
[07:45] <Bogus8> Flannel: yeah, that's what I've done on my debian box... forget the command now but there is a way to add them as alternatives that you can pull up with a switch
[07:45] <tanner_> I want to install ubuntu, but I already installed openSUSE and would like to know how I could remove that first
[07:45] <tobago> i need to know how to create pointers with caption for program flow charts.
[07:46] <wbmj> tanner_: ubuntu will give you the option to remove SUse
[07:46] <Bogus8> tanner_: why not just run ubuntu and wipe out the old partitions when that stage comes up?
[07:46] <zvacet> tanner_ : use manual way to install ubuntu and remove suse partition and on that free space install ubuntu
[07:46] <tanner_> Haha I'm new to the whole Linux thing, didn't know I'd have that option
[07:46] <tanner_> I'll try it, thanks, and I'll be in touch as soon as I need more help (an hour max)

[07:53] <m0u5e> ajay: theres a chart with supported filesystems in gparted
[07:53] <Raz0R> is there any reason why firefox would be starting at startup. its not in my autostarted apps list?
[07:53] <WIGGMPk> When sending this command "sudo shutdown -r now" to my server (hardy heron amd64 server) it will stop on "Will now restart" and does nothing.. I have to manually dirty boot it
[07:53] <m0u5e> ajay: oh wait my bad, gpart (not gparted)

[07:57] <ajay> ill do that
[07:57] <tparcina> I'm running Ubuntu 8.04 on laptom and I need to change screen resolution on external monitor. How can I do that?
[07:58] <myr> tparcina, have you tried system > prefs > screen resolution ?
[07:58] <kinema> I just created and edited my /etc/hostname to reflect the name of my hosted virtual server (strangelove) but now when I try to execute commands via sudo I get the erro "sudo: unable to resolve host strangelove". From what I've read this is because I'm lacking an entry in /etc/hosts but I can't edit /etc/hosts because sudo is borked.
[07:58] <tparcina> on my laptop I'm running 1024*768, and on monitor I would like to run 1280*1024
[07:59] <tparcina> myr: yes I have, but it allows me to change the resolution only up to the 1024*768

[08:00] <tparcina> myr: thank you for your try :)
[08:01] <myr> tparcina, i would suggest adding some modes in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (after making a backup copy of course)
[08:01] <myr> but i have no idea

[08:05] <tparcina> myr: I'll look it out, maybe that one will help

[08:06] <ajay> hey guys how do i install new icons
[08:06] <Flannel> GITS1: Are you trying to install build-essential on a machine that isn't online?
[08:07] <morbyte> GITS1: apt-cache rdepends build-essential
[08:07] <morbyte> GITS1: gives you all packages which depend on build-essential; maybe theyre not installed...
[08:07] <GITS1> Flannel: yes i am. i have a live-usb stick. can i mount that as /cdrom/ so synaptic can install from there?
[08:07] <Flannel> GITS1: do you have your Ubuntu CD still?
[08:08] <lebutcherpc> firefox seems to slow my whole computer
[08:08] <Flannel> GITS1: build-essential (and all its depends) are on the CD (both Desktop and Alternate, and server I believe)
[08:08] <lebutcherpc> can anybody help
[08:08] <myr> tparcina, not sure, i apologize.
[08:08] <GITS1> Flannel: (i'm installing onto a laptop with no cd drive). i installed from a live usb stick
[08:09] <Gigadelic_IIDX> sup all
[08:09] <Flannel> GITS1: That liveUSB is.... an image of the CD, right?  Check on it if it has a /pool/ directory
[08:10] <GITS1> Flannel: it only has /pool/main and /pool/restricted
[08:10] <Flannel> GITS1: normally I'd say use apt-cdrom to add that repository, but I'm not sure it'll work with the USB thing.  Or at least, it'll work, but it'll be more of a hassle.
[08:10] <serge> hi, everyone!
[08:10] <Flannel> GITS1: right, if you go into /pool/main/ you'll see build-essential, and a number of things that it depends on (everything will be there)
[08:11] <GITS1> Flannel: thanks. i didn't even think of this. I was d/ling packages from ubuntu's site
[08:11] <Flannel> GITS1: You'll unfortunately have to install the depends first, they are: dpkg-dev, g++, gcc, linux-libc-dev, libc6-dev, make, etc.
[08:11] <tomasko> !help > tomasko
[08:11] <tomasko> ah two "t"s
[08:12] <Flannel> I don't believe gdebi will work in a situation like that.  So, if you just double click build-essential, it'll complain about depends not being satisfied, install those, etc.
[08:12] <GITS1> Flannel: is there a way you could apt-cache that for me and paste on here so i know what to install?
[08:12] <Flannel> GITS1: that might be the easiest way, to be honest.
[08:12] <Flannel> GITS1: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/build-essential
[08:13] <Flannel> GITS1: but those depends also have depends, etc (you can click on them in the browser to see)
[08:13] <chrisfromgreece> HELP!
[08:13] <tomasko> i like what wubi does, i like the "my grandma can use it" nature of ubuntu, but i like the speed of arch linux. is there any way i can have all three or at least a fast ubuntu on a laptop intended for a technophobe?
[08:13] <Flannel> GITS1: thats why I say just shotgun depends-satisfying (as opposed to shotgun debugging) might be easier (try to install, see what it complains about, install that, etc)

[08:19] <Big_Buddha_Daddy> how do i reset the iptables to the default settings?
[08:19] <Flannel> GITS1: ah, that's becaues its looking for packages.  Go ahead and edit your sources.list, and comment that out (or go to Software Sources, and uncheck the CD)
[08:20] <Flannel> GITS1: start with the low level stuff, gcc-4.2 folder
[08:20] <Flannel> GITS1: gcc-4.2, libstdc++ libc6-dev etc
