[06:50] <Rudd-O> ricardo_: ok, what program gives you that error message?
[06:50] <Roasted> rudd - o - "close" my session? Meaning if I lose power and boot back up, I'll have to reopen kmix to get microphone capabilities?
[06:50] <ricardo_> when i go to my computer
[06:50] <therealnanotube> Rudd-O: gnome by default doesn't save all running programs in session. but that can be set in system -> prefs -> sessions
[06:50] <Rudd-O> Roasted: what i mean is that when you log out, your programs are saved in the "session", and when you log back in, your programs are restored.  But if you never log out, then the programs may fail to be saved in the sessionl.
[06:50] <l0fls> therealnanotube:  what should the md5 sum be?!?
[06:50] <therealnanotube> Rudd-O: i find it better to manually add stuff to session startup.
[06:50] <Rudd-O> therealnanotube: thanks for the tip.  heads up roasted.
[06:51] <therealnanotube> l0fls: whatever the website where you got the iso says the md5sum should be
[06:51] <Out_Cold> l0fls, depends on what the .iso is
[06:51] <Rudd-O> therealnanotube: I don't.  Session autosave saves me a lot of time
[06:51] <ricardo_> this is the error i get when i try to acess my hard drive in my computer "CANNOT MOUNT VOLUME"
[06:51] <Rudd-O> ricardo_: please respond the question: how are you trying to access the hard drive?
[06:51] <Roasted> I'm still not hearing any output in skype.
[06:51] <Roasted> This is unreal.
[06:51] <Roasted> 3 hours trying to get skype working.
[06:51] <Roasted> I just might kill myslef. AHH
[06:51] <FloodBot3> Roasted: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[06:51] <ricardo_> through my computer
[06:51] <ricardo_> i click them
[06:52] <therealnanotube> Rudd-O: well, i guess that depends on your usage pattern... :)
[06:52] <l0fls> what if its a torrented iso
[06:52] <ricardo_> and i get that error automatically
[06:52] <Rudd-O> therealnanotube: correct.
[06:52] <Rudd-O> Roasted: wait.  you cannot hear any oputput?
[06:52] <Rudd-O> ok roasted lets start from the top
[06:52] <Out_Cold> Roasted, i tried skype too... i got it working in 8.04 by adjusting the mic input in the skype program..
[06:52] <l0fls> therealnanotube:  what if its a downloaded torrent
[06:52] <nsadmin> ricardo_ ok, what format are the drives in? what os formatted them?
[06:52] <Rudd-O> Roasted: what happens when you call the callt esting service?
[06:52] <Roasted> rudd - o - In sound recorder, I have microphone output. In skype, I dont.
[06:53] <Rudd-O> Roasted: did you call the call testing service?  what happened?
[06:53] <therealnanotube> l0fls: every file has a different md5sum. so... find out what it should be. if there's no md5sum provided for it, then... you have nothing to check. but anyway, torrent protocol does error checking anyway, so you don't have to worry about md5sums, generally.
[06:53] <Roasted> rudd - o - I have two skype accounts, and I was calling one from the other from my desktop to laptop. But my laptop battery just died.
[06:53] <Roasted> I did call the testing service. I hear the lady talk. But I dont hear my voice playback after I record my message.
[06:53] <Rudd-O> Roasted: I am going to have to ask you again.    Then you ARE GETTING OUTPUT.
[06:53] <ricardo_> NTFS
[06:53] <Rudd-O> what you are not getting, is INPUT
[06:53] <ricardo_> xp
[06:53] <Roasted> RIGHT.
[06:53] <Roasted> yeah
[06:53] <Roasted> my bad?
[06:53] <Bugatti`> hey
[06:53] <Bugatti`> what's happen
[06:53] <Rudd-O> Roasted: well, that was kind of an important distinction
[06:54] <Bugatti`> anyone from long island?
[06:54] <Rudd-O> Roasted: ok, so open your kmix mixer
[06:54] <Roasted> my apologies
[06:54] <Roasted> k
[06:54] <Rudd-O> right click the icon
[06:54] <l0fls> Bugatti`:  im from long island city
[06:54] <Out_Cold> ricardo_, you might need to install the ntfs-3g from the package manager..
[06:54] <Rudd-O> then click show mixer
[06:54] <fakhir> hey i am hosting a site for another person on my server and what to give him ftp access without giving him an account on the system itself. what are my options? is there a guide? i looked around for a while but did not find any solid information.
[06:54] <Rudd-O> Roasted: describe that mixer to me
[06:54] <Bugatti`> l0fis
[06:54] <Rudd-O> fakhir: that is quite complicated to setup.  you might be interested in DTC
[06:54] <Roasted> Front, PCM, CD, Mic, Mic Boost.
[06:55] <Rudd-O> (google DTC gplhost)
[06:55] <Rudd-O> ok
[06:55] <ricardo_> i installed it already but it doesnt mount my hard drives
[06:55] <Bugatti`> im gonna invite you
[06:55] <Roasted> Nothing muted, all levels up, "capture" checked in Mic (capture)
[06:55] <Rudd-O> you are good
[06:55] <Rudd-O> now in kmix, go to prefs -> configure channels
[06:55] <gbear14275> anyone know what java plugin to use with firefox for 64 bit?  I have a prompt here with 3 options, 2 IcedTea and 1 GCJ...  Where is Sun's?
[06:55] <Rudd-O> in the window that appears, CHECK ALL THE CHECKBOXES and then hit okay
[06:55] <Roasted> k
[06:55] <Jaffarkelshac> i am having a persistent problem, gnome-mplayer freezes and i have to kill it to open again and all sound is not available any more. I have to restart to fix this. any other fix for this annoying problem

[06:55] <Rudd-O> do you now have more mixers?
[06:56] <Roasted> a lot more
[06:56] <l0fls> Bugatti`:  what are you inviting me to?
[06:56] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: that depends, is it a kernel problem (are there any errors in the dmesg command output?)
[06:56] <Bugatti`> come
[06:56] <Bugatti`> pl
[06:56] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: if not, it is likely a pulseaudio problem
[06:56] <Bugatti`> plz
[06:56] <fakhir> Rudd-O, yeah that is what i found but it looked rather complicated so that is what brought me here. i would have thought there would be some simple solution.
[06:56] <Rudd-O> Roasted: awesome
[06:56] <Rudd-O> now is there a SPECIFIC slider for capture?
[06:56] <Rudd-O> I have two sound cards.  one of them doesn't and the other does.
[06:56] <Jaffarkelshac> i have a feeling it is pulseaudio, and if it how do i fix that Rudd-O
[06:56] <_anu> where can i upload the view the functions() forever?
[06:57] <Roasted> I believe so. I mean, its really close to AUX but I assume AUX is to another slider.
[06:57] <_anu> and view
[06:57] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: if the problem is fixed by merely logging off and then on (as opposed to restarting), then you know it's pulseaudio
[06:57] <Rudd-O> oh, well,
[06:57] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: let me restate what I just said

[06:58] <Roasted> rudd - o - I'm still not hearing my voice back with skype.
[06:58] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: if the problem is fixed by issuing "killall -KILL pulseaudio" in a terminal, thenr logging of and logging on again, then it is pulseaudio
[06:58] <Rudd-O> Roasted: ok, up the Capture slider, check the Mic Boost checkbox, and select Mic as the recording source.
[06:58] <Lazerath> hello
[06:58] <ricardo_> helloooooooooooooo

[06:58] <Rudd-O> Roasted: if not, you might want to check the skype preferences panel itself
[06:58] <Rudd-O> brb, gotta boot another machine in another room.
[06:59] <Out_Cold> Roasted, are you on the right mic input in skype?? i had like 3 or 4 when i only have 2 inputs..
[06:59] <Jaffarkelshac> Rudd-O: then its not pulseadio then coz logging does not fix it, and the kill command on pulseaudio is the same results
[06:59] <ricardo_> IM BILGATES NEPHEW I INSTALLED UBUNTU BECAUSE XP IS BULLSHIT
[06:59] <Rudd-O> yeah, usually there are several mic ouptuts
[06:59] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: kernel problem, either your card is faulty, or you have a really exotic card
[06:59] <fulat2k> hi folks, is there a gui based client for svn in ubuntu/linux/
[06:59] <fulat2k> ?
[06:59] <Roasted> out_cold - I've got like 10 of them. I have 2 sound cards on this system. Onboard + PCI (Vista doesnt suport my PCI card)
[06:59] <whabooo> help i am trying to compile hplip and i get this after i do all the steps and get to the make command: [raj@localhost hplip-2.8.12]$ make
[06:59] <whabooo> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[07:00] <Roasted> out_cold - I've tried all different combinations. Nothing works with my microphone.
[07:00] <chris_> hi
[07:00] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: try getting an USB audio card as a loaner, disabling the builtin sound card in the BIOS, and using the usb sound card for a while.  your problems should disappear altogether.
[07:00] <Out_Cold> Roasted, try sifting through each... oh.. n/m lol
[07:00] <nickrud> !language | ricardo_ (think disney G rated ;)
[07:00] <Roasted> I'm on hour 3 trying to get this working.
[07:00] <Lazerath> hello
[07:00] <Roasted> Really just makes booting to vista look so much better at this point
[07:00] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: and report it as a bug, giving the devs ALL the info they rquesti, so they can fix it
[07:00] <Out_Cold> lol...NNOOOOOOOOOOOO Roasted
[07:00] <Roasted> but I hate resorting to that restart buton to "fix" problems
[07:01] <chris_> i cant seem to delete files in my samba share from windows. can i have some help please?
[07:01] <Rudd-O> Roasted: do you have pulseaudio?  perhaps pulseaudio is fucking your skype experience up.  I know that personally I have to stop ulseaaudio before using skype
[07:01] <l0fls> Smoking marijuna and using ubunut can be tricky
[07:01] <Rudd-O> killall -9 pulseaudio
[07:01] <tritium> Rudd-O: watch the language
[07:01] <Rudd-O> and then I rerun skype
[07:01] <Jaffarkelshac> i will stick with restarting for the mean time, and quit doing taxing things when playing video. Rudd-O
[07:01] <Roasted> Yeah, we gotta keep it G rated around here cause, ya know, kids will be in these rooms at 2 AM.
[07:01] <Rudd-O> tritium: okay, dude, but chill out, it's just a word
[07:01] <Roasted> *rolls eyes*
[07:01] <tritium> Rudd-O: channel policy
[07:01] <Rudd-O> Jaffarkelshac: ok
[07:01] <nickrud> Rudd-O, it's 4pm somewhere
[07:02] <Out_Cold> Roasted, it's not 2 here.....
[07:02] <chris_> 2am here
[07:02] <Roasted> nickrud - point?
[07:02] <Lazerath> it is 1 am here
[07:02] <Rudd-O> tritium: policy must match reality, not the other way around . nickrud: do you really think foreign language dudes will mind me saying a few cuss words?
[07:02] <chris_> is someone able to help me?
[07:02] <nickrud> Roasted, bad nick complete mixed with poor typing ;0
[07:02] <nsadmin> smoking marijuna and speling ubuntu or marijuana can be trikie
[07:02] <Lazerath> or me
[07:02] <tritium> Rudd-O: and reality is that ubuntu is popular, and used by children.  Keep it family friendly.
[07:02] <grayhane> I will be adding a high end video card to my system, will I need to do any re-configuring ?
[07:02] <l0fls> tritium: theres no better word than marijana would you rather me say cheeeba ganga
[07:03] <Roasted> rudd - o - Yes, I have pulseaudio. I thought about removing it but a lot of people said they experienced a lot more problems with pulse removed. Also, a lot of them confirmed they didnt need to remove pulse to get it work.
[07:03] <l0fls> nsadmin: yes it can
[07:03] <Lazerath> where can i learn how to build a kernel with out all the errors
[07:03] <nickrud> Rudd-O, not gonna get into an argument, this was decided long before you started visiting here
[07:03] <micro01> how do i download AIM for linux, i found a site
[07:03] <Lazerath> where can i learn how to build a kernel with out all the errors
[07:03] <Roasted> micro01 - just use pidgin
[07:03] <ikonia> Lazerath: read the kernel docs
[07:03] <micro01> i dont like pidgin
[07:03] <Lazerath> i have
[07:03] <Roasted> you prefer AIM over pidgin? Really?
[07:03] <Paddy_EIRE> micro01: Try empathy
[07:04] <Rudd-O> tritium, nickrud: you have a right to set up the policy.  I also have a right to CRITICIZE the policy.
[07:04] <Rudd-O> anyway
[07:04] <micro01> AIM.com has a linux version i would like to try
[07:04] <chris_> how can i delete files made by windows users in samba by using windows?
[07:04] <Rudd-O> I just wanted to comemnt that I got the live cd to work on an USB stick
[07:04] <ikonia> micro01: I'm sure there are docs that come with it
[07:04] <ikonia> Rudd-O: many people have
[07:04] <tritium> Rudd-O: doesn't matter.  You still have to *abide* by channel policy inside the channel.  Now, move on.
[07:04] <w3rd_> anyone use ubuntu with vmware server and have issues with usb?
[07:04] <Paddy_EIRE> micro01: and to be honest.. aim does not hold a candle to pidgin
[07:04] <Rudd-O> tritium: I am now, so I don't see why you have to repeat it.
[07:04] <ikonia> chris_: make sure the windows users have write access to the share and directory
[07:04] <Roasted> this channel is anal, like whoa
[07:04] <qqx> can anyone tell me how to set my Bluetooth headset as my default audio device?
[07:04] <Rudd-O> now all I want to do now to make it better is not having to copy the kernel and initrd to /boot
[07:05] <chris_> 0644
[07:05] <grayhane> chris_ try using MC it works well for that
[07:05] <chris_> is the mask
[07:05] <ikonia> chris_: mask it's the key - permissons on the file system AND share are
[07:05] <_anu> Are they OpenSource SourceCode Searching Tool? I want to upload
[07:05] <Paddy_EIRE> Roasted: continue to insult people and you will be evicted.. so it will be one less problem for you
[07:06] <Roasted> I wasn't insulting anybody.
[07:06] <Roasted> But thanks.
[07:06] <chris_> ikonia what do i need to do to fix it?
[07:06] <Paddy_EIRE> yes you where
[07:06] <Rudd-O> Paddy_EIRE: roasted has not insulted ANYBODY
[07:06] <Roasted> Actually, I wasn't. But again, thanks.
[07:06] <ikonia> Rudd-O: Paddy_EIRE lets move along please
[07:06] <tritium> Stay on topic, please.
[07:06] <Paddy_EIRE> calling everyone anal aint insulting
[07:06] <mlopezqc> Rudd-O, did you succeded?
[07:06] <Paddy_EIRE> :/
[07:06] <ikonia> Paddy_EIRE: please.
[07:06] <Rudd-O> OT: E.R. and Private practice are up in eztv now
[07:06] <Rudd-O> mlopezqc: yeah, absolute success
[07:06] <Roasted> Paddy_EIRE - I agree with you. It's not insulting.
[07:07] <Rudd-O> I wish I could have loaded the kernel directly from the iso, because that saves one step on my howto.
[07:07] <Rudd-O> but meh, it's not like I can code in assembler to fix that, right?
[07:07] <Roasted> wow
[07:07] <Roasted> did I just see that?
[07:07] <ikonia> Roasted: yes you did - please stop commenting on things, this is a support channel
[07:08] <Roasted> lol
[07:08] <qqx> can anyone tell me how to set my Bluetooth headset as my default audio device?
[07:08] <Rudd-O> wait, did I just get kicked for making the FIRST offtopic comment?
[07:08] <Roasted> Rudd - Any other ideas?
[07:08] <error404notfound> I tried to setup gfxboot-grub, and now I get : http://pastebin.com/m3ba2b6c6
[07:08] <Roasted> On my skype thing
[07:08] <Rudd-O> sorry, man, I'm out of ideas
[07:08] <bazhang> Rudd-O, Roasted take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[07:08] <ikonia> Rudd-O: no - you got removed because you where warned/asked to not be offtopic and follow the channels topic - you then posted OT#
[07:08] <Roasted> no thanks
[07:08] <chris_> ikonia how do i check to see if windows users have delete access in samba?
[07:08] <Out_Cold> Rudd-O, a question before i go.. kmix will overtake alsamixer options and can be set to start on new session?
[07:09] <ikonia> chris_: if the users have write access to the share, and write access to the file system, you should be fine
[07:09] <gbear14275> is there a 64 bit java browser plugin yet?
[07:09] <ikonia> gbear14275: no
[07:09] <Rudd-O> Out_Cold: yeah, kmix willr estore volumes when you log back on, if you open  it
[07:09] <Rudd-O> ikonia: the warning appeared on my screen AFTER I had already spoken off-topic
[07:09] <mlopezqc> Rudd-O, if you can make a howto and share it
[07:09] <_anu> Are they OpenSource SourceCode Searching Tool? I want to upload
[07:09] <Rudd-O> mlopezqc: I already wrote the howto
[07:09] <Out_Cold> cool.. thanks for your help mate...
[07:09] <ikonia> Rudd-O: no it didn't - tritium warned you you then posted
[07:09] <Out_Cold> and all the rest..
[07:09] <Rudd-O> I am polishing it and I will share it, indeed.
[07:09] <chris_> ikonia thats the problem, they can read and write, but they can't delete
[07:09] <_anu> Are they OpenSource SourceCode Searching Tool? I want to upload
[07:09] <qqx> methinks the ops spend more time booting and arguing of late then helping. please, assist me!
[07:09] <ikonia> _anu: no
[07:09] <Roasted> qqx - I concur
[07:10] <ikonia> _anu: any text editor can do it
[07:10] <fuzzybear3965> hey does anyone know if i can configure xrandr to work with compiz
[07:10] <tritium> qqx: we're dealing with trolls at the moment
[07:10] <ikonia> chris_: thats most odd, what does the samba server logs say when you try to delete it
[07:10] <Rudd-O> ikonia: you know what, perhaps you can go recruit some other people to help ubuntuers, because I really don't have time to be treated like your busboy.    I'm outta here.
[07:10] <Out_Cold> goodnight or morning all.... take care.
[07:10] <nickrud> Rudd-O, Roasted you know, if you have issues or questions about how the channel is op'd, #ubuntu-ops is the place.
[07:10] <_anu> ikonia : i mean i can search it according to the category
[07:10] <ikonia> _anu: you can only search code you have
[07:11] <ikonia> _anu: so if you don't have the code - how can you search ?
[07:11] <qqx> tritium, oh ok, i see, you have some cleanup work to do
[07:11] <Roasted> It's just ironic. When I was going to other channels, I kept hearing bits and pieces about how nazi driven this channel is. Being an Ubuntu fan, I defended this place. But shit, this is laughable, guys. Calm down a little bit on your ban stick. Christ.
[07:11] <tritium> qqx: please, state your support question for the channel
[07:11] <qqx> can anyone tell me how to set my Bluetooth headset as my default audio device?
[07:11] <_anu> ikonia : i have some
[07:11] <ikonia> _anu: then any text editor can search the source code
[07:11] <xeer> I have ubuntu-8.10-desktop-amd64.iso deflated to my partition, how can I install it through linux without restarting? (there are bugs preventing me from viewing the bios post)
[07:11] <chris_> ikonia it says access denied from windows. where is the log for samba located? i cant find it.
[07:12] <_anu> ikonia : are there better ways ?
[07:12] <nickrud> xeer, right click the downloaded iso , and select burn to disk
[07:12] <ikonia> _anu: thats all you need ????? you search for what you want, source code is just text
[07:12] <ikonia> chris_: /var/log/samba
[07:12] <nickrud> xeer, arh, didn't read fully, sorry

[07:21] <JohnAnderson> i need help with getting ubuntu to dual boot alongside with winxp

[07:24] <bazhang> JohnAnderson, which is installed first
[07:24] <ikonia> gbear14275: redhat package manager
[07:24] <chris_> ikonia any luck?
[07:25] <bazhang> gbear14275, package for redhat fedora suse and the like; debian ubuntu use .deb packages
[07:25] <ikonia> chris_: that initially looks like your not actually connected, although that doesn't make sense
[07:25] <sfuentes> how do you terminate X without kill signals?

[07:27] <persia> Hello.  I'm using Thunderbird in intrepid, and the folder selection pane no longer appears in the UI.  How might I restore it?
[07:27] <ikonia> chris_: out of interest what user name are you connecting to the samba share as (windows username)
[07:27] <RemsSs> Hi everybody
[07:27] <chris_> ikonia i am using a user name set up in ubuntu from useradd
[07:28] <ikonia> chris_: so your connecting to the share using a username that is setup in ubuntu, can you show me your smb.conf file in a pastebin please ?

[07:29] <chris_> thanks
[07:30] <daredevilthere> ikonia: which languge can i use do compile .sh scripts
[07:30] <ikonia> daredevilthere: you don't
[07:30] <ikonia> daredevilthere: shell scripts are text based
[07:31] <hentaixp> their like bat files I believe
[07:31] <ikonia> correct
[07:31] <hentaixp> .bat
[07:31] <bazhang> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addons/versions/1392 persia to do with this? did not see that bug on launchpad
[07:34] <persia> bazhang, I've not seen that before.  I'm not sure it's related.
[07:34] <bazhang> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/234134 or was it this persia
[07:34] <persia> bazhang, No, not that at all.
[07:35] <JohnAnderson> so anyone know if i can correct this easily
[07:35] <persia> bazhang, It's that the folder selection panel is missing, rather than changes to the mail display panel.
[07:35] <JohnAnderson> or do i need to reinstall ubuntu on the harddrive set as master with the other as slave
[07:35] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: should be quite straight forward
[07:36] <JohnAnderson> im a newbie tho!
[07:36] <bazhang> persia, dont see that bug, but will look a bit more
[07:36] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: thats fine - explain the current situation, what's currently installed
[07:36] <JohnAnderson> i dont even know the difference between c and c++ except the two plus'
[07:36] <JohnAnderson> okay
[07:36] <daredevilthere> I need sometype of tutorial for awk for text manipluation
[07:36] <JohnAnderson> wow alot of ppl from san antonio
[07:37] <JohnAnderson> im trying to get a boot manager to load up on startup so i can either boot windows from one harddrive or linux from the other
[07:37] <JohnAnderson> from my understanding this would have been done automatically had i installed ubuntu on the master with the other hd as slave.. but i didnt do this.
[07:37] <persia> daredevilthere, There's a fairly comprehensive manual at http://people.cs.uu.nl/piet/docs/nawk/nawk_toc.html
[07:37] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: master/slave don't mean anything - so don't worry about that
[07:37] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: you installed windows first ? yes/no ?
[07:38] <JohnAnderson> windows was already installed on the first harddrive
[07:38] <codpawn> I have booting problems with my ubuntu can any one help me?
[07:38] <daredevilthere> thanks persia
[07:38] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: ok, so you installed ubuntu to the second disk with the windows drive still plugged in? yes/no ?
[07:39] <JohnAnderson> no i removed the windows drive entirely and installd it on the second by itself
[07:39] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: ok, thats the problem
[07:39] <JohnAnderson> i know ;(
[07:39] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: you may find it easier/quick to put both disks in as you want them, then re-install ubuntu, it will do everything for you (should do)
[07:39] <JohnAnderson> thats what i figured i'd need to do..
[07:39] <JohnAnderson> which is okay!
[07:39] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: that would be the quickest direct route
[07:40] <macvr> hi all... how do i prevent my wireless from connecting to a particular network?
[07:40] <qqx> can anyone Please Please Please tell me how to use my bluetooth headset as my default audio device? no dead end links please.
[07:40] <ikonia> JohnAnderson: there are others, but if your new, you may find the re-install route quicker and easier
[07:40] <Flannel> JohnAnderson: Its actually not too difficult to add windows to your grub config
[07:40] <JohnAnderson> Flannel how would i do that ??
[07:40] <x_dimitri> my wireless card isn't working under intrepid. has anyone experienced similar problems? I'm on a dell D830 laptop.
[07:40] <ikonia> Flannel: he's not got grub booting yet,
[07:40] <JohnAnderson> i know that hd's are reffered to as hda and hdb
[07:40] <gbear14275> anyone using brub2?
[07:40] <Flannel> ikonia: oh?
[07:40] <JohnAnderson> nope
[07:40] <persia> bazhang, Apparently I just can't use a mouse: all fixed.  Thanks anyway.
[07:40] <gbear14275> grub2?*
[07:40] <daredevilthere> how can i start my own script on startup.that Script logins automatically on service provider login page?
[07:40] <ikonia> Flannel: not even installed, grub is installed on the secondary disk,
[07:40] <ikonia> Flannel: hence why a re-install (put grub on the right mbr) would be quicker
[07:40] <Flannel> ikonia: He can just set the secondary disk as the primary boot device
[07:41] <macvr> Flannel: ikonia :  how do i prevent my wireless from connecting to a particular network?
[07:41] <Flannel> in the BIOS
[07:41] <JohnAnderson> but that wouldnt give me the option to chose between the two would it?
[07:41] <ikonia> Flannel: yes, he could, that would be valid, but as this guy is new, to get grub on the mbr, then add the right os etc etc, may be quicker, but your welcome to help him add windws to grub and change the disks over
[07:41] <JohnAnderson> im a girl
[07:41] <JohnAnderson> no im jk
[07:41] <Flannel> JohnAnderson: Yeah, it'd likely be easiest for you to just reinstall, certainly less hassle.
[07:41] <JohnAnderson> lmaoo
[07:42] <JohnAnderson> thas what imma do
[07:42] <JohnAnderson> atleast i know it loaded up and all... so i know it'll install.. just gotta do it all ova again
[07:42] <qqx> can anyone Please Please Please tell me how to use my bluetooth headset as my default audio device? no dead end links please.
[07:42] <eseven73> qqx nothing wrong with a wild goose chase every now and then ;)
[07:43] <JohnAnderson> okay thank you everyone
[07:43] <daredevilthere> Hey guys can i make calls and recieve calls from ubuntu by connecting cell using bluetooth?
[07:43] <JohnAnderson> 1 more question
[07:44] <JohnAnderson> i will need to set it as master right?
[07:44] <JohnAnderson> the linux harddrive?
[07:44] <chris_> hello. after having used intrepid for a while, i have switched back to hardy on my dell xps m1530. i wanna go back to intrepid (nvidia has released new drivers, finally), but i used to sometimes get a blank display after start-up, sometimes it would beep (through the soundcard, not speakers!) terribly, then start or not (remain blank). sometimes it would also go blank, but the x server would work, while the consoles do not (i'm pretty sure
[07:44] <chris_>  they work, they are just not visible). has anybody ever experienced such a thing?
[07:44] <insmod> anyone know if they solved the issue with ID 0ac8:307b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. USB 1.1 WebCam -- it uses the zc3xx
[07:44] <fuctfly> anybody here good with video conferencing software?  i m having issues with getting h264 codec to work with h323 protocol..  =)
[07:45] <Flannel> JohnAnderson: Nope
[07:45] <JohnAnderson> it doesnt make much difference anyways either does it
[07:46] <qqx> ok ok ok ok ok ok ok... pls someone tell me how to use my blue tooth headset as my default audio device
[07:48] <daredevilthere> Can i make n recieve calls using ubuntu by connecting to cell via btuetooth
[07:49] <chris_> qqx: you could try blueman bluetooth manager. as far as i know it is not that simple. you'd have to edit a file in your home dir. but there is a good how-to at google
[07:51] <qqx> thanks chris_ ill try
[07:52] <Raize> Hi, quick question. I have a directory azureus created, /home/user/.azureus. It doesn't appear in a regular file browser obviously. Is there a command I could use to rename that?
[07:52] <daredevilthere> Raize:  use mv
[07:52] <epoch> i have a beautifully upgraded ubuntu and /how do i start compiz/
[07:52] <epoch> :<
[07:52] <U-b-u-n-t-u> I want to rip a dvd and convert the file to avi for compressed storage anyone know a good program for that?
[07:52] <nsadmin> is compiz in ubuntu?
[07:53] <epoch> i believe so
[07:53] <daredevilthere> nsadmin: yap
[07:53] <Raize> It should enable itself after installing the proper drivers
[07:53] <gasull> U-b-u-n-t-u: I think a program called devede can do that
[07:53] <epoch> i knew i saw it fly by during the 219 updates process :)
[07:53] <epoch> no clue as to how to fire it up though
[07:53] <U-b-u-n-t-u> I have that one gasull I didnt know it could rip and save in avi?
[07:53] <gasull> nsadmin: I think it is not in the official repositories, but you can find repositories for it.  I was using it
[07:54] <Flannel> nsadmin, gasull: it is installed by default
[07:54] <ikonia> U-b-u-n-t-u: avidrip, or dvd::rip
[07:54] <puremichael> hi; where can i set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH permamently ?
[07:54] <Raize> I know in my system I just install the nvidia drivers for my card and you should be able to enable the pretty stuff by going like, System > Preferences > Appearance > Visual Effects
[07:54] <daredevilthere> U-b-u-n-t-u: use sudo apt-cache search dvd to search for pacakages
[07:54] <Raize> Then install ccsm to configure it.
[07:54] <chris_> qqx: well, if you want it to be your default device anyway, then blueman might actually be the right thing for you
 acidrip
[07:54] <U-b-u-n-t-u> thats ikonia and insmod going to try it now
[07:55] <gasull> I want to make a bootable CD with some .exe files (for upgrading my BIOS).  How can I do it?
[07:55] <ikonia> gasull: not an ubuntu think
[07:55] <ikonia> gasull: you need a windows/dos boot cd
[07:56] <Dexi> !sensors
[07:56] <epoch> Raize, that always tells me that desktop enhancement cannot be enabled even though my nvidia driver is installed
 no
[07:56] <Raize> Ive had that issue before, sec
[07:56] <epoch> thank you
 just use mkiso (i think it's called that
[07:57] <Raize> Try going to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[07:57] <qqx> where can i pastebin a screen shot
[07:57] <Raize> See if theres an option there to enable restricted drivers
[07:57] <arquebus>  http://paste.ubuntu.com

[07:58] <qqx> thanks
[07:58] <epoch> Raize, 2 options are in there, one is 'in use' -- my correct driver
[07:59] <epoch> version 173 (recommended) and version 96 are in the listbox
[07:59] <epoch> 173 is in use
[07:59] <insmod> anyone know if they solved the issue with ID 0ac8:307b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. USB 1.1 WebCam -- it uses the zc3xx
[07:59] <Raize> I would say try reinstalling the latest drivers manually unless thats how you installed them in the first place
[07:59] <Raize> If that doesn't work I'm not sure =/
[07:59] <epoch> manually blehh im using it right now it says :9
[07:59] <daredevilthere> Hey my mic was recording but i checked some more boxes from volume and it not not recording now
[08:00] <cisa> after hibernation my pc swaps (300MB to 600MB). this slows down the workflow. i have 4GB of ram and 5.7GB swap. workaround: swapoff $DEV && swapon $DEV. any idea how to get rid of this?
[08:00] <maksum> hey i need to install the longman cd dictioanary, does anyo ne could help me?
[08:00] <Raize> Yeah, I know sometimes when I install ubuntu and it "automatically" installs the drivers for me I still have to reinstall them manually for compiz
[08:00] <whitedox> When installing the nvidia drivers, it says I must exit X before installing. How do I do this without shutting my PC off?
[08:00] <cisa> 5.7GB swap was suggested by ubuntu (D-I)
[08:00] <epoch> i just hate a dirty system is all :(
[08:01] <epoch> hell i dont need compiz
[08:01] <maksum> could not install the longman cd dictioanary, although in the cd stated that linux could install it

[08:05] <lwizardl> Hi
[08:06] <Flannel> qqx: The issue is that you have the wrong version of python2.5-dev...  You'll notice that http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/python2.5-dev  that (v2.5.2-11.1ubuntu1) depends on the same version of python2.5 (which is what you have installed), the version of -dev you downloaded manually is 2.5.1-0ubuntu1.2, which likely depends on (exactly) 2.5.1-0ubuntu1.2 of python2.5
[08:06] <daredevilthere> how can i download the pakage using apt-get and save them without installing
[08:06] <Flannel> daredevilthere: apt-get -d install package1 package2 etc
[08:06] <whitedox> insmod: Ohhhh. Okay. Thanks!
man apt-get
[08:06] <Flannel> daredevilthere: -d means download only

[08:08] <zer0> how to set mocp remember my theme that i was choose??i cant find ~/.moc/config
[08:08] <Flannel> qqx: Ok, you downloaded version 2.5.1-0ubuntu1.2 of python2.5-dev (your firefox download window, top left) and are trying to install it.  That version of -dev depends on 2.5.1-0ubuntu1.2 of python2.5; you have version 2.5.1-11.1ubuntu1 of python2.5 installed
[08:08] <raevol> i seem to be missing whatever dictionary xchat and pidgin use for spellchecking, anyone know what package that is?
[08:09] <Flannel> insmod: "read the manual" is not an acceptable answer in this channel.  When helping, be helpful.
[08:09] <Flannel> raevol: like aspell, but I don't know for sure.
[08:09] <terryx> i can't install the updates, its says E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[08:10] <Flannel> terryx: Have you tried running `sudo dpkg --configure -a` to fix the problem?
[08:10] <zer0> how to set keyboard shortcut to open terminal on ubuntu 8.10??
[08:10] <raevol> thanks Flannel
[08:10] <insmod> Flannel : then answer this -- is the issue with ID 0ac8:307b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. USB 1.1 WebCam -- it uses the zc3xx
[08:10] <qqx> ok so what do i need to do
[08:10] <qqx> flannel
[08:11] <terryx> flannel, yes i am doing it but its says warning: Failed to parse default value `??????????? ?????? ;gtk-theme-selector.desktop,???????????? ??????????? ???;default-applications.desktop,??????????? ????;gnome-cups-manager.desktop]' for schema (/schemas/apps/control-center/cc_actions_list)
[08:12] <rww> terryx: that's a known bug and shouldn't stop dpkg from running, if i remember correctly
[08:13] <terryx> rww, u mean no problem...its continue installing updates...
[08:13] <rww> terryx: It should do, yes.
[08:13] <rww> terryx: is it? or is it stopping after that error?
[08:13] <rww> The specific bug is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/276272 , btw.
[08:13] <Flannel> qqx: You need to get the proper version of python2.5-dev.  Is this a fresh install?
[08:13] <mthed> I'm trying to update my ubuntu 8.04 but the update manager can't find some of the packages. Why is this?
[08:13] <qqx> flannel yes how did you know
[08:13] <terryx> rww, how can i install languages, indian languages in ubuntu?
 and you can't baby people for ever this isn't windows -- learn the backend
[08:14] <Flannel> qqx: Because you don't have all the packages listed.  python2.5-dev should be listed in synaptic.  Hit 'reload' (top left in synaptic) and then install python2.5-dev from synaptic.  Also, be sure to upgrade to current package versions (hit mark all upgrades), or let update-manager do it.
[08:14] <ce_mood> hi

[08:15] <epoch> demz foightin woidz!
[08:16] <maverick340> is there a way i can implement a p2p network of some sort over a LAN.
[08:16] <Ububegin> insmod: To access remote server/PC from the nautilus brower, i remember doing something stcp:(this is wrong) something like that that... I cant remember... but by doing that, i can access the remote PC's folders like a local PC's one.. Anyone can help me out with .. :)
segmentation fault is where the program crashes unexpected
[08:16] <zer0> how to install adobe reader and with firefox support???
[08:16] <Tekno> Ububegin: scp ?
[08:16] <maverick340> there is a lot of stuff that gets downloaded , resulting in  lot of dupes. was wondering if there is a way by which you can have a way of searching of files over the lan
[08:16] <maverick340> sort of like a p2p client
[08:17] <qqx> http://paste.ubuntu.com/102602/ @ Flannel
[08:17] <karooga> hi, anyone used do-release-upgrade before?
[08:17] <terryx> insmod, i have understand this..but why my firefox is crashes with this error?
[08:17] <Flannel> karooga: Yep
[08:17] <rww> !anyone | karooga
use fish
[08:17] <chris_> Ububegin: i think the correct line should be: smb://
probably a library error
[08:18] <Trenter> Question:  How do I add more desktops to ubuntu
[08:18] <karooga> Flannel: is the update purely text based?
[08:18] <zer0> how to install adobe reader and with firefox support???
isn't that samba
[08:18] <arquebus> terryx- http://letmegooglethatforyou.com/?q=segmentation+fault
[08:18] <Flannel> karooga: It is... well, there's curses based menus for some of the reconfiguring, but yes, it takes places entirely in a console
[08:19] <zer0> how to install adobe reader and with firefox support???
[08:19] <Trenter> zer0: dont need to spam the question
[08:19] <Ububegin> chris_ : the remote pc is also Linux... not windows
[08:19] <Flannel> qqx: You've got python2.5-dev right there.  It should show up in synaptic.  But you can install it with sudo apt-get install python2.5-dev
more then one X or kde gnome etc
[08:19] <bazhang> zer0, dont repeat so often
[08:19] <bazhang> zer0, let us do a bit of research between asking
[08:20] <zer0> i cant sudo=acroread.
files or printing
[08:20] <karooga> Flannel: so running an ssh session and screen would be a good strategy for the upgrade?
[08:20] <Ububegin> insmod: accessing files
[08:20] <Melik> anyone else having trouble with nvidia drivers and xorg on Jaunty Jackalope?
[08:20] <bazhang> zer0, you want to read pdf in ff?
[08:20] <Trenter> insmod:  Using gnome, want to be able to have desktop cube, I have compizconfig-settings-manager installed and when I activate the desktop cube it does not work, trying to figure out how to add more desktops
[08:20] <zer0> yes
fish is the best but it is a kde protocal
[08:20] <Flannel> karooga: You really shouldn't upgrade over ssh... (it'll actually warn you about that, and open up another sshd too).  Really ought to do it at a terminal if you can.
[08:21] <zer0> also in my ubuntu 8.10
fish://ipadress
[08:21] <Viking667> hey there. Anyone seen a "moonlight" deb around? I can't see one except for mono-smcs.
[08:21] <Melik> anyone else having trouble with nvidia drivers and xorg on 9.04 jaunty?
[08:21] <U-b-u-n-t-u> insmod acidrip seems to be working well thanks for the tip
[08:21] <bindaas> hellos ,ubuntu hardy gnome  power manager is not showing any info about battery discharge/charge ,is it broken?

[08:21] <Viking667> I'm wanting to play Silverlight media from within firefox
that's not desk top thats work spaces
[08:22] <Viking667> fish://   ...?
[08:22] <karooga> Flannel:  Ok.  And does the upgrade just use normal sources.list to get the packages?  So I could use a local apt-cacher repo to speed up the install?
[08:22] <Trenter> insmod:  Thanks for the correction, I mean workspace I guess, how do I add additional workspaces?
[08:22] <zer0> how can i view file.exe on ubuntu 8.10??
[08:22] <Trenter> insmod:  Acctually save ur typing, lemme check google... lol
form linuxhelp?
[08:22] <karooga> Flannel: is it possible to determine what packages will be need prior to doing the upgrade?
[08:23] <rww> !wine | zer0
[08:23] <Viking667> insmod: yeah.
[08:23] <Ububegin> zer0: install wine... to run exe files
lol been yrs
[08:23] <sleepy_cat> can u give me a site which on opening there is a video played in the small box somewhere on it
[08:23] <Trenter> Viking667:  Try ie tab with silverlight installed in wine mb
[08:23] <sleepy_cat> besides youtube ofcourse

[08:23] <aftertaf> what type of video format? flmash?
[08:23] <Ububegin> sleepy_cat: a lot of blogs have it..
[08:23] <sleepy_cat> anything
[08:23] <zer0> wine not support many .exe..
[08:23] <Viking667> Trenter: I'm trying to avoid use of IE on that machine as much as I can.
[08:23] <Flannel> karooga: It'll tell you a whole long list and ask you to confirm/etc
[08:23] <zer0> it not support angels online.exe
use cxoffice
[08:24] <aftertaf> any bash gurus about?
[08:24] <Viking667> aftertaf: I've no idea; the only thing I know is that it's videos available at ITV for the Coro Street stuff.
[08:24] <U-b-u-n-t-u> anyone know how to make the system monitor on 8.04 show the cpu usage like on 8.10?
[08:24] <Trenter> Viking667:  IE Tab is a firefox plugin
[08:24] <sleepy_cat> insmod: whts cxoffice
[08:24] <Ububegin> aftertaf: proceed to #bash channel...
[08:24] <Lou__> This bug is affecting me big time, but it seems that there is no one working on it now after several weeks: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/281622.  It must not be affecting many people, but it makes many of my applications unusable---even the bug reporting module doesn't work!  It seems to be the update to the GNU C libraries several weeks ago that is causing it.
[08:24] <aftertaf> :)
[08:24] <Flannel> karooga: It uses regular repos, but I'm not sure if it has a mirror hardcoded or not into its new sources.list for the ugprade.
somewhat
[08:24] <sleepy_cat> ubuntulog: give me a site
[08:24] <maverick340> how do you setup a private p2p network ? (over  LAN )
where wine gets its code
[08:24] <kbrosnan> Trenter: ietab is windows only
[08:24] <zer0> lol.cxoffice=need to buy
[08:24] <maverick340> want a way by which people over lan can search of files
[08:24] <zer0> :(
[08:24] <sleepy_cat> which have a video enabled on it.
but it's not free
[08:24] <Trenter> didn't know that :S
[08:25] <Trenter> shame
but they do have some on gnutella
[08:25] <aftertaf> want to recover the size of RAM on a machine - using cap /proc/meminfo | grep...| awk for now . . .
[08:25] <zer0> i can find full download??
[08:25] <bazhang> zer0, http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-adobe-pdf-reader-with-plug-in-for-mozilla-firefox-in-feisty-fawn.html also for intrepid (ubuntu 8.10) from medibuntu.org repos
[08:26] <bindaas> is there a good power manager which i should install?
[08:26] <boscoslife> http://pastebin.com/m26fc84fd                      can someone tell me what i am doing wrong with setting up apache
[08:26] <boscoslife> 2
[08:26] <bindaas> or uninstall/install gnome-power manager
[08:26] <boscoslife> ssl
[08:26] <boscoslife> to
i did on gnutella but just goto there site
[08:27] <zer0> that mean, i can get full package??
[08:28] <Grayvon> Anyone have an easy way to convert my IE favs into FF favs without access to a windows computer?
[08:28] <ikonia> Grayvon: the favourites are just normally a text file with html links in
what are you trying to install -- and yes they let you install full but it nages you at startup
[08:29] <maverick340> or is there some kind of direct connect server/client for ubuntu ?
[08:29] <ikonia> maverick340: dc++
that's why i got the free one on gnutella
[08:29] <Grayvon> so copy paste and add bookmark in FF is what you are saying? :P
[08:29] <chris_> boscoslife: isn't this a public ip?
[08:29] <ikonia> Grayvon: or just import the text file
[08:30] <boscoslife> chris why do you ask
[08:30] <maverick340> ikonia, dc++ runs natively on ubuntu ?
[08:30] <zer0> let me think..i think all free with linux..
[08:30] <Grayvon> I can't get it to import from either File or Bookmarks
[08:30] <ikonia> maverick340: yes
[08:30] <Viking667> Trenter: also, IE Tab only works under Windows.
[08:30] <Grayvon> I found a python script that is supposed to do it, but I am a total noob
[08:30] <boscoslife> chris why do you ask
[08:30] <maverick340> and is there a howto on setting it up for LAN ?
http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxlinux/
[08:31] <ikonia> maverick340: install it, launch it
[08:31] <maverick340> ikonia, heh , doing that
[08:31] <boscoslife> chris no it is not
[08:31] <sleepy_cat> ok like yahoo there must be a site which when logged on some promotion video appear in the bottom part of the screen
[08:32] <boscoslife> chris some random numbers i gave so i would not give out my own server ip
[08:33] <vlt> Hello. I just upgraded the packages "libssl0.9.8" and "openssl". Why does usn say "After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to effect the necessary changes"?
[08:33] <ikonia> boscoslife: your own server ip is listed in your irc client <IP_ADDRESS>
[08:33] <zer0> can any1 direct my to full version of CrossOver Linux??

[08:49] <winterk> Hiya - I have a slightly weird issue. I'm trying to run Ubuntu 8.10 LiveCD on an AMD Athlon64 with an nForce board - but it keeps freezing when it gets to the Hardware Abstraction Layer. If I got APCI/APIC enabled, the machines sleeps and freezes. If I disable these in the BIOS, the screen goes corrupt and freezes with the last image still showing. I tried to google on this for 2 hours and tried various solutions but nothing seems to work.
[08:50] <ikonia> zer0: you don't bypass securirty
[08:50] <digifor> ikonia, some ISP's limit you to one mac address.

[08:59] <kalvin_> ok im in failsafe
 run som programs see if it happens
[09:01] <kalvin_> everything seems to be the same
[09:01] <adam7> franki^: what do you want us to help with?
[09:01] <ValentineXX> There is a file in my recycle bin, when i try to delete that i am unable .. "Error removing file: Permission denied"
 still bad
[09:01] <kalvin_> yeah, its like only certain programs have this problem
[09:02] <franki^> adam7: anything that might get my [ctrl] key to work would be great :)
 run nvidia-settings lower the settings see if it helps
[09:02] <robert__> :)
[09:02] <ndlovu> weird... I installed tofrodos (apt-get install tofrodos), which seemed to work fine. but there is no command tofrodos, no man entry and 'apropos tofrodos' returns nothing. if I try install it again I get 'tofrodos is already the newest version.'. is this a bug?
[09:02] <adam7> franki^: that bug doesn't look related to the control key, as it says, the keyboard appears to work fine
[09:03] <adam7> ndlovu: run dpkg --listfiles tofrodos
[09:03] <extern> how to completely uninstall ati video drivers? I have an issue with an xcb assertion, which I can't get fixed.
[09:04] <ndlovu> thanks adam7, that was what I needed... several apps in 1 package
[09:04] <qqx> could anyone pretty pls tell me how to make your bluetooth headset work as your default audio device?
rmmod then remove the package
[09:04] <franki^> adam7: as far as he can tell, i have _exactly_ the same error message, and nearly the same outputs, and my control key works in my terminal but apparently not for, say, firefox..
[09:04] <adam7> franki^: check system -> preferences -> keyboard
[09:04] <ValentineXX> There is a file in my recycle bin, when i try to delete that i am unable .. "Error removing file: Permission denied" how to handle this file?
[09:05] <kalvin_> no luck
[09:05] <adam7> franki^: there are some settings related to the ctrl key in there that might be of use
 when you change settings you have to restart X
[09:06] <kalvin_> ok...actaully ill mess with it tomorrow, i have to get some sleep..really appreciate your help insmod hopefully i see you on again
 not for a while but cheers
[09:07] <vlt> Hello. I just upgraded the packages "libssl0.9.8" and "openssl". Why does usn say "After a standard system upgrade you need to reboot your computer to effect the necessary changes"?
[09:08] <qqx> could anyone pretty pls tell me how to make your bluetooth headset work as your default audio device?
[09:08] <sami> Anyone here good at preseed?
[09:09] <Flannel> qqx: No one whos awake right now knows.  I suggest slowing down to one repeat every 20-30 minutes.
[09:09] <ndlovu> if an app doesn't have a recurse option (but it accepts * - like 'tounix *'), is there another way to tell it to recurse through subdirectories?
[09:09] <qqx> Flannel why dont i have the right to repeat every 3 minutes?
[09:09] <adam7> ndlovu: the * is a function of bash not the app
[09:09] <bonhoffer> i am trying to read an xlsx file (excel 2007) on my ubuntu box -- i have open office 3.0 with the extra-plugin installed, but when i try to open the file, I get: General Error: General Input/Output error -- any help?
[09:10] <Flannel> qqx: It won't accomplish anything more than once in a while, so it's spammish.
[09:10] <adam7> qqx: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothAudio
[09:10] <sami> I'm trying to preseed away the prompt that says Encrypt home directory. Nothing in Appendix B mentions anything about that.
[09:10] <ndlovu> adam7, does bash have a recurse function as well, or would I need to do some scripting?
[09:10] <adam7> ndlovu: um... I know zsh does
[09:10] <Trenter> Where can I go to shout my love of ubuntu because all of my pain of dealing with vista is gone?
[09:11] <adam7> ndlovu: I think bash does too but I can't remember what it is (in zsh it is **)
[09:11] <DJones> Trenter: Try #ubuntu-offtopic thats a general chat channel for ubuntu
[09:11] <ndlovu> thanks adam7, I'll try ** and see if it works
[09:11] <adam7> ndlovu: it doesn't work in bash
[09:11] <silv3r_m00n> hi there
[09:11] <ndlovu> thanks though adam7
[09:12] <adam7> ndlovu: if you use the shell a lot I'd recommend zsh, it's very customizable and has more features
[09:12] <silv3r_m00n> after some idle time my monitor goes to standby where can i change the time interval ?
[09:12] <adam7> silv3r_m00n: system -> prefs -> power settings
[09:12] <adam7> ndlovu: try find . -0 | xargs -0 someprogram
[09:12] <franki^> adam7: if i change any of those control key settings it just brings up the same error message
[09:13] <adam7> ndlovu: sorry make that try find . -print0 | xargs -0 someprogram
[09:13] <adam7> franki^: I don't know then, sorry :(
[09:13] <silv3r_m00n> adam7:  in kde ?
[09:13] <franki^> adam7: thanks anyway :)
[09:13] <adam7> silv3r_m00n: try #kubuntu
[09:16] <sami> Anyone here good at preseed?
[09:16] <sami> I'm trying to preseed away the prompt that says Encrypt home directory. Nothing in Appendix B mentions anything about that.
[09:16] <p3rrrn> hi guys, iam using ubunutu eee....is there a way to upgrade to easy peasy???
[09:16] <Flannel> !upgrade | p3rrrn
[09:16] <Flannel> p3rrrn: I don't see any reason why the traditional upgrade methods wouldn't work
[09:16] <ValentineXX> from gksudo nautilus how to locate trash in system files?
[09:17] <adam7> ValentineXX: I think trash is in ~/.local
[09:17] <Flannel> !trash | ValentineXX
[09:17] <jtz100> ,
[09:17] <p3rrrn> ok thx
[09:17] <terminator_> Anyone know when the Nvidia 173.14.15 drivers will be updated in Ubuntu.  I need this driver for my video card.
[09:17] <boscoslife> does anyone run xxamp on there server
[09:17] <adam7> terminator_: I might be wrong but I don't think video drivers are updated for stable ubuntu releases
[09:17] <ValentineXX> adam7:  Flannel i dont know your brain how u can remember learn all :-s it is not easy for me to learn ubuntu and specially commands
[09:18] <Flannel> boscoslife: Most people just run a real LAMP stack.
[09:18] <bonhoffer> so it looks like google doesn't support xlsx files -- ubuntu doesn't either
[09:18] <adam7> bonhoffer: I think OO.org can open xlsx
[09:18] <adam7> bonhoffer: I know OO.org can open docx so I'm assuming it can open xlsx to
[09:18] <terminator_> adam7: does that mean I will not have use of the video driver I need.
[09:18] <adam7> terminator_: no, you'll just have to install it manually
[09:19] <adam7> !nvidia
[09:19] <bonhoffer> adam7, I wish it could -- i have OOo 3.0 with the odf-converter, I get "input/output error" on startup
[09:19] <boscoslife> does anyone run xxamp on there server
[09:19] <p3rrrn> so i should upgrade with "adept_manager --dist-upgrade-devel" ???
[09:19] <bonhoffer> or when I try to open the file
[09:19] <Flannel> boscoslife: Most people just run a real LAMP stack.
[09:19] <adam7> !ask | boscoslife
[09:19] <bonhoffer> just reinstalled the odf-integrator plugin to to avail -- unaware of any log
[09:19] <ndlovu> adam7, that worked great, thanks
[09:20] <ValentineXX> adam7:  Flannel thanks
[09:20] <boscoslife> Flannel: i cant seem to my ssl with apache running and that seemed like an alternative can you help me
[09:21] <bonhoffer> anyone know of something like #openoffice to ask my question in (that doesn't work)
[09:21] <JohnAnderson> hello agian
[09:22] <adam7> bonhoffer: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/IRC_Communication
[09:22] <JohnAnderson> still having friggin problems installing Lool
[09:22] <bonhoffer> adam7, thanks
[09:22] <adam7> bonhoffer: looks like they have a ton of irc rooms :)
[09:23] <JohnAnderson> okay i'll ask another q
[09:23] <Lareth> Hello I have a problem installing util-linux package with the update manager. I get an error exit code 9
[09:23] <JohnAnderson> when installing ubuntu to a machine with multiple harddrives.. does it matter what harddrive it is installed on? (whether it be master or slave?)
[09:24] <adam7> JohnAnderson: shouldn't, as long as grub works
[09:24] <Paddy_EIRE> Lareth: sudo apt-get install -f
[09:24] <adam7> JohnAnderson: in other words, you need to have grub on a bootable hard drive
[09:24] <adam7> JohnAnderson: Ubuntu can be on an SD card for all it cares
[09:24] <Lareth> Paddy_EIRE: and after that I should use the name of the package?
[09:24] <adam7> Lareth: no, just that command
[09:25] <JohnAnderson> okay bootable... so it doesnt matter if its installed on slave
[09:25] <Chris> Hello, I've just freshly installed ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386 and ran sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade and receive an error on installing linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.16_i386.deb. See http://static.chris.net.au/paste.txt I could not use the paste service since firefox also no longer starts in this intermittent state.
[09:25] <JohnAnderson> cause from what i understand it'd have to be installed on master in order to get into the bootloader..
[09:25] <adam7> JohnAnderson: nope, as long as grub is on bootable (grub is the boot manager)
[09:25] <JohnAnderson> maybe im wrong
[09:25] <JohnAnderson> okay]
[09:25] <adam7> JohnAnderson: just the bootloader on a bootable one I *think*
[09:26] <Lareth> adam7 & Paddy_EIRE: I just did it and got the same error again
[09:26] <adam7> JohnAnderson: you might be right, though
[09:26] <JohnAnderson> cause im tryingto install it on a harddrive  that will be next to winxp
[09:27] <badboy1985ro> hy all
[09:27] <badboy1985ro> is anybody working at the ubuntu project for thecus n1200?
[09:27] <Chiliblack> hi, trying to install ubuntu server on a old mini server
[09:27] <Paddy_EIRE> Lareth: do "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:28] <adam7> JohnAnderson: I think you're right. What I was thinkig of is if you put the bootloader and the initrd on the bootable partition, then you can put everything else on a slave disk
[09:28] <qqx> :(
[09:28] <Paddy_EIRE> Lareth: failing that try "sudo apt-get autoremove" then try to update it again
[09:28] <adam7> !ask | Chiliblack
[09:28] <Flannel> Paddy_EIRE, Lareth: `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` is all you need.
[09:28] <Chiliblack> failed to get it to net install so I have cracked it open and andded in a cdrom, only it goes in to graphic mode when it finds the ubuntu disc, anyway to have a non graphic install
[09:28] <Flannel> upgrade is taken care of with a dist-upgrade
[09:28] <Paddy_EIRE> Flannel: ah.. nice oen
[09:28] <Paddy_EIRE> *one
[09:28] <adam7> Chiliblack: alternate cd
[09:29] <Chiliblack> do have a url
[09:29] <DJones> Chiliblack: You need to use the alternate install cd which has a text based installer
[09:29] <DJones> !alternate
[09:29] <JohnAnderson> right okay
[09:29] <JohnAnderson> the installer was also going good
[09:29] <Chiliblack> thanks that hopefully will work
[09:29] <JohnAnderson> but it kept giving me an error midway through saying that couldnt read from disc
[09:30] <daredevilthere> How can one install linux in command line
[09:30] <JohnAnderson> should i reburn it?
[09:30] <Lareth> I still get the same error
[09:30] <Chris> Hello, I've just freshly installed ubuntu-8.10-desktop-i386 and ran sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade and receive an error on installing linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.16_i386.deb. See http://static.chris.net.au/paste.txt I could not use the paste service since firefox also no longer starts in this intermittent state. How do I resolve this issue? Sorry for the repeat, but I realised the first time I didn't ask a question, so figured tha

[09:31] <selangel> 无聊哦...  这有中国人没？
[09:32] <adam7> Chris: sudo apt-get install -f
[09:32] <_ruben> !cn
[09:32] <Trenter> selangel:  English only please
[09:32] <Lareth> Paddy_EIRE Flannel adam7 I get this http://pastebin.com/m2aea0117
[09:33] <adam7> Lareth: perl doesn't like you today
[09:33] <adam7> Lareth: did you upgrade from an old ubuntu?
[09:33] <gnu2it2> what tool will discover the IP and MAC address of the boxes on our little network? 192.168.x.x
[09:34] <Lareth> I am using ubuntu 8.04.1
[09:34] <bonhoffer> adam7, so i found out my OOo 3.0 on ubuntu is the developer version -- i installed this by adding deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main to my sources -- how can i uninstall
[09:34] <_ruben> gnu2it2: nmap
[09:34] <Lareth> and haven't logged in for about a month (I was tied to windows)
[09:34] <bonhoffer> and go back to the standard OOo
[09:34] <adam7> bonhoffer: remove that line from your sources and then refresh the package database, remove oo.org and install it again (it's crucial to uninstall and install, don't do reinstall)
[09:35] <adam7> !info util-linux
[09:36] <Chris> adam7: thanks, I just ran that, but it still wants to install the new linux image, and fails when I try to apt-get upgrade
[09:36] <adam7> Chris: try apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:36] <Chris> adam7: okay
[09:36] <rainabba> Where do I modify Mouse Icon themes in Hardy with Gnome?
[09:36] <bonhoffer> adam7, thanks -- so i commented out that line and did apt-get upgrade and apt-get update -- but nothing uninstalled
[09:37] <bonhoffer> sorry -- how do i remove OOo
[09:37] <adam7> bonhoffer: you need to uninstall it manually
[09:37] <lwizardl> anyone here using a Arris tm502g modem from comcast and have a working router connected?
[09:37] <Lareth> adam7: any ideas on how to overcome the prob
[09:37] <bonhoffer> so delete the directory
[09:37] <adam7> Lareth: what does uname -a give you
[09:37] <adam7> bonhoffer: no
[09:37] <adam7> bonhoffer: if you used the ppa, then you just apt-get remove openoffice.org
[09:38] <adam7> bonhoffer: apt-get remove openoffice.org-core rather
[09:38] <Lareth> adam7: Linux ubuntu-tzanos 2.6.24-22-generic #1 SMP Mon Nov 24 19:35:06 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[09:38] <bonhoffer> adam7, sorry, never removed with apt before
[09:39] <adam7> bonhoffer: no problem
[09:39] <Chris> adam7: now I get the same errr with two distinct linux image .deb files.
[09:44] <bonhoffer> o.k. all is removed the open office room would like me to install via  download.openoffice.org -- but i like to use the package manager
[09:44] <bonhoffer> what is the preferred way to proceed
[09:44] <adam7> bonhoffer: don't listen to them ;) use the package manager, otherwise you will have problems in the future
[09:44] <rohan> hello guys any way to install vlc media player without updating or updating only those pakages which are required for vlc
[09:44] <adam7> we have a package manager for a reason
[09:45] <adam7> rohan: nope, unless you can find a .deb for it somewhere
[09:45] <Chris> adam7: error output is at http://static.chris.net.au/paste2.txt (browser still refusing to start) any suggestions?
[09:45] <rohan> hmm... so i really have to update evry thing (including openoffice)
[09:45] <bonhoffer> adam7, that is what i thought
[09:46] <adam7> Chris: rm both of  /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.27-7-generic_2.6.27-7.16_i386.deb /var/cache/apt/archives/linux-image-2.6.27-9-generic_2.6.27-9.19_i386.deb
[09:46] <adam7> rohan: ubuntu is not a rolling release distro
[09:46] <adam7> rohan: and why would you have to update openoffice for vlc?
[09:46] <Lareth> adam7: what is a rolling release distro?
[09:46] <bonhoffer> adam7, btw -- you don't know of an open office 3 package  ?
[09:47] <adam7> Lareth: arch, gentoo to name two
[09:47] <adam7> bonhoffer: besides in that ppa, no
[09:47] <rohan> adam7: iam a regular ubuntu user myself and red hat certified so dont think iam dumb
[09:47] <Lareth> adam7: meaning what?
[09:47] <Chris> adam7: okay, now it says I have unmet dependences, should I apt-get -f install again?
[09:47] <adam7> bonhoffer: intrepid made the decision not to offer oo.org 3 because it was late being released
[09:47] <bonhoffer> adam7, o.k. got it
[09:48] <adam7> rohan: I just asked you a question :/
[09:48] <adam7> Lareth: meaning they release non-security updates as they are released, ie, if package X releases a new version tomorrow, the distro might have it in their repos in a couple of days
[09:48] <sami> Does a normal user have to be in a certain group to start X
[09:48] <adam7> Chris: yep
[09:49] <Gnea> rohan: just sudo apt-get install vlc  it might have to update a few things, but it shouldn't have a negative impact on anything - what are you concerned about?
[09:49] <bonhoffer> adam7, in general -- when i want to install a package -- i google "foo-package ubuntu" to see what the install is -- is there a better way to do this?
[09:49] <adam7> rohan: ah, sorry, I misread your question -- what updates are you worried about?
[09:49] <Lareth> adam7: ok.. can you suggest something that I can do to make the update work? I mean it does not let me update anything else. and there are quite a few that things that need updating. Sometimes I really regret installing a 64bit linux
[09:50] <adam7> Lareth: 64bit has nothing to do with your problem I think
[09:50] <adam7> bonhoffer: Synaptic package manager should have a list of all the packages that can be installed -- you just have to double click htem
[09:50] <Lareth> adam7: Somewhere in the error mentions wrong architecture
[09:50] <Chris> adam7: that caused those same .deb files to be re-downloaded, and then installed, same result.
[09:50] <adam7> Lareth: yeah, I saw that
[09:51] <bonhoffer> adam7, so no command-line "grep" that i can do
[09:51] <adam7> Chris: ok, now we know it wasn't corrupted debs
[09:51] <adam7> bonhoffer: apt-cache search packagename
[09:51] <Chris> adam7: so what are the other options/reasons?
[09:51] <bonhoffer> adam7, thanks
[09:51] <Chris> adam7: I believe this may not be an ubuntu fault, and may be a fault with my system, but i'm unsure how to diagnose it
[09:52] <rohan> adam7: iam worried about downlaoding 200mb +
[09:52] <adam7> rohan: just do apt-get update && apt-get install vlc, it won't pull in all the updates
[09:52] <Lareth> How can I perform my update and leave util-linux out (just in case)?
[09:52] <Gnea> rohan: are you on dialup?
[09:52] <adam7> rohan: do you live somewhere bandwidth limited
[09:52] <adam7> otherwise updates are good :)
[09:53] <Lareth> adam7: I think I should download 8.10 and perform a distribution upgrade. Maybe this will help..
[09:53] <adam7> Lareth: or maybe not ;)
[09:53] <Lareth> :(
[09:53] <Chris> Lareth: maybe, but I just did that, and it didn't work :)
[09:54] <adam7> Lareth: It's worth a try though
[09:54] <Chris> Actually I did a fresh install of 8.10 and then update/upgrade and it failed
[09:54] <adam7> Lareth: my only other suggestion would be to reinstall perl
[09:54] <jigpe> hello good evening. how to burn a movie .avi format? brasero and k3b seems not working
[09:54] <Lareth> adam7:  how can I do that with apt?
[09:54] <adam7> jigpe: devede
[09:54] <Chris> adam7: so, no idea what to investigate next?
[09:54] <Gnea> great.
[09:54] <adam7> Lareth: sudo apt-get install --reinstall perl
[09:54] <Lareth> ok
[09:55] <bonhoffer> adam7, this is a first -- apt-get install openoffice.org produces: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[09:55] <adam7> bonhoffer: try sudo apt-get update first
[09:55] <Lareth> I still get the same error
[09:55] <Lareth> how can this be?
[09:55] <Lareth> grrr
[09:55] <bonhoffer> adam7, i did
[09:55] <bonhoffer> (and still same error)
[09:56] <adam7> bonhoffer: which packages and what are you missing?
[09:56] <Weedy> i have a Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02) and on the live cd the connection pauses when transfering large ammounts of data
[09:56] <Weedy> anyideas?
[09:56] <Lareth> it still wants to upgrade util-linux
[09:56] <adam7> Chris: google finds lots of stuff for the short read in buffer_copy thing, one second
[09:56] <Lareth> even if I try to reinstall perl
[09:56] <Lareth> how can I bypass that?
[09:56] <bonhoffer> http://pastie.org/356438
[09:57] <adam7> Lareth: you can remove util-linux
[09:57] <Chris> adam7: yes, I've read up on it myself, but it seems to be for specific packages. I've actually had this problem before. I've also seached the bug database.
[09:57] <bonhoffer> adam7, http://pastie.org/356438 has a list of packages . . .
[09:57] <Chris> adam7: I can't believe what I'm experiencing is a bug, so I'm reluctant to submit a bug report; if it was reproducible, every single person installing 8.10 would have the same problem.
[09:58] <Lareth> adam7: if I try to do this it says that it will remove some other packages that I do not want to be removed. (like kubuntu-kde4-desktop etc)
[09:58] <adam7> Chris: a lot of the upgrades run in to configuration-specific problems, that's why they're so hard to catch
[09:58] <Lareth> Isn't there any other way to bypass or correct the problem?
[09:58] <adam7> Lareth: I think kubuntu-kde4-desktop is a metapackage so you can remove it without problems
[09:58] <Chris> adam7: indeed. it's quite frustrating. I might try the same procedure on another system, I expect it will work.
[09:59] <Lareth> adam7: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/102639/
[09:59] <adam7> Lareth: haha, I like it
[09:59] <Chris> adam7: but I'd like to explore some avenue of diagnosis. I even manually ran dpkg on the .deb and tried to strace it to see where/how this "short read" occurs, but there was a bit too much to isolate it easily.
[09:59] <ActionParsnip> !info kubuntu-kde4-desktop
[09:59] <Lareth> adam7: I don't!
[10:00] <adam7> Lareth: ok
[10:00] <Kevin`> Chris: I had a problem with corruption over wireless a while back with 8.10. I ended up using PAR2 so I could transfer that one file, and later just moved the antennas around. not sure what the core problem was, and I didn't read the whole backlog
[10:00] <Kevin`> (with dpkg)
[10:00] <Chris> Kevin`: I have independently checked the md5sum of the .deb file with one from another mirror downloaded to another machine
[10:00] <Chris> Kevin`: so it's certainly not .deb file corruption
[10:01] <adam7> ActionParsnip: does http://pastebin.com/m2aea0117 mean anything to you?
[10:01] <Chris> Kevin`: and I seriously doubt a linux-image .deb file is broken and I'm the only one experiencing problems. I suspect my configuration or system is doing something horrible.
[10:01] <Lareth> adam7: I can't believe that this package messes my installation so much!
[10:01] <Lareth> there must be a way
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> adam7: you are running a 32bit linux and trying to install 64bit packages
[10:02] <Chris> adam7: thanks for the advice anyway. I'll try some other options myself. If all else fails I'll start debugging dpkg.
[10:02] <adam7> ActionParsnip: it's not mine, it's from the same person who had the kubuntu-kde4 package
[10:03] <ActionParsnip> adam7: well whoever it is, thats whats happening
[10:03] <adam7> Chris: sorry I can't be more helpful :(
[10:03] <adam7> ActionParsnip: ok, even though it says Errno architecture (x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi-<IP_ADDRESS>) does not match executable architecture (x86_64-linux-gnu-thread-multi-2.6.24-16-server) -- they're both x86_64 ?
[10:04] <jacekowski> hi
[10:04] <jacekowski> what time is now in "San Diego, CA 92131"?
[10:04] <Flannel> jacekowski: Try #ubuntu-offtopic, but 2:04 AM on the 9th
[10:04] <ksa-24> اهلا
[10:04] <Chris> adam7: it's okay. I'd have been surprised if you had a solution. This has been bugging me for hours already, but I will get to the bottom of it. I'm disappearing now for a few hours.
[10:05] <adam7> Chris: ok, good luck :)
[10:05] <Chris> Cheers
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> adam7: if you run uname -a you will see what architecture you are running
[10:05] <adam7> Lareth: run uname -a
[10:05] <jacekowski> bloody timezones
[10:05] <adam7> jacekowski: there is always timeanddate.com and ubuntu's clock has a timezone feature
[10:05] <Lareth> adam7: Linux ubuntu-tzanos 2.6.24-22-generic #1 SMP Mon Nov 24 19:35:06 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[10:07] <adam7> ubottu got floodbotted :/
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: what are you trying to acieve?
[10:08] <SlimeyPete> has anyone else here had trouble with likewise-open getting stuck when logging in to GNOME?
[10:08] <Lareth> ActionParsnip:  I cannot update my system. I get an error when trying to update util-linux
[10:08] <SlimeyPete> doesn't seem to happen with KDE
[10:08] <adam7> Lareth: yeah, after looking through the files that come with util-linux I don't think you want to remove it
[10:08] <Obwan234> hello eveyone
[10:08] <Lareth> adam7: Obviously. I do not consider myself a lucky person !
[10:08] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: i'd uninstall it, upgrade, then reinstate it
[10:09]  * _anu want to autocomplete in g++
[10:09]  * _anu want to autocomplete in gedit
[10:09] <Lareth> ActionParsnip: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/102639/ this is what I got when I tried to remove it. I am not sure I want to risk that
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> _anu: you can autocomplete in openoffice
[10:09] <adam7> ActionParsnip: util-linux has things like dmesg/tail in it
[10:10] <adam7> I guess you could remove the package but not the files
[10:10] <rccu> _anu: I want some beer
[10:10] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: you could use some form of force option
[10:11] <Lareth> ActionParsnip: like what? How can I make sure that I just remove this package, I do not break anything essential (because it seems that this package is REALLY needed)
[10:12] <Lareth> I think that I may have to download intrepid and try to upgrade
[10:12] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: with the installation procedure, if you navigate in terminal where the .deb file are you can use dpkg to forcefull install them
[10:13] <digitalpsyko> where can i find or enable cpu throttling in 8.10 64bit
[10:13] <adam7> digitalpsyko: are you overclocking?
[10:13] <adam7> digitalpsyko: if you have gnome, add the cpu freq. applet to the panel and click on it
[10:13] <digitalpsyko> no id like to underclock to save battery life
[10:14] <rww> digitalpsyko: it's enabled by default using the powernowd daemon. You can control said daemon using the applet that adam7 mentioned.
[10:14] <adam7> digitalpsyko: by default ubuntu should have frequency scaling activated
[10:14] <digitalpsyko> thanks fellas
[10:15] <tinkywonk> can anyone help me with a nvidia 96 resolution problem using the lastest ubuntu intrepid release on an mx400 card
[10:15] <Lareth> ActionParsnip: can you remind me the command to do so?
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: cd /var/cache/apt/archives/
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: if yuo ls there do you see deb files?
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> tinkywonk: wassup?
[10:16] <Lareth> ActionParsnip: I see the deb file I want in there
[10:16] <bonhoffer> hmm . . . still can't get open-office to install
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: sudo dpkg -i *.deb
[10:16] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: failing that: sudo dpkg -i --force-all *.deb
[10:17] <bonhoffer> http://pastie.org/356451
[10:17] <ActionParsnip> bonhoffer: sudo apt-get install open-office
[10:17] <bonhoffer> ActionParsnip, http://pastie.org/356451
[10:17] <Lareth> ActionParsnip: It fails with both ways :(
[10:18] <tinkywonk> i ave a machine with an msi mx400v32t card in it and i have done a fresh install of ubuntu 8.10 intrepid. I have done all the updates and ubuntu recomends i use the nvidia 96 proprietry driver but when i do i cant change resolution and its stuck on 640 but if i ununstall the driver i can get 800 resolution any ideas i have tried everything i can think of
[10:18] <jonaskoelker> hello all.  I try to run "xmodmap .Xmodmap", but get "xmodmap:  please release the following keys within 2 seconds: \n UNNAMED (keysym 0x0, keycode 125)", and then repeating with 4, 8, 16, 32 seconds.  What do I do?  Can I synthesize the relevant KeyRelease event somewhow?  If so, how?
[10:18] <bonhoffer> sudo apt-get install open-office -- package doesn't exist
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> Lareth: sudo dpkg --force-all -i <name a db file>
[10:18] <Lareth> ActionParsnip: still the same problem
[10:18] <Dimitree> How do i go to the etc folder from the default folder in terminal ?
[10:18] <bonhoffer> apt-cache had openoffice.org, but produces "broken package"
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> bonhoffer: sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-writer openoffice.org-calc openoffice.org-report-builder-bin openoffice.org-base
[10:19] <Lareth> Dimitree: cd /etc
[10:19] <ActionParsnip> Dimitree: cd /etc
[10:19] <Dimitree> ty Lareth
[10:19] <SmokeyD1> hey people. On a standard ubuntu install, are users able to boot grub into single user mode and change the root password without knowing it first?
[10:19] <Lareth> Dimitree: and then you can just either cd or cd ~ to go back to your home folder
[10:19] <jonaskoelker> tinkywonk: "I 'ave a machine"?  There's a french accent in your typing ;)
[10:19] <Lareth> Dimitree: ur welcome
[10:20] <tinkywonk> sorry about my speeling lol
[10:20] <Dimitree> thanks ! :)
[10:20] <tinkywonk> spelling
[10:20] <tinkywonk> only just got up
[10:20] <jonaskoelker> me too
[10:20] <SmokeyD1> tinkywonk: needs coffee
[10:20] <rajamocyc> hi......... from thailand
[10:20] <jonaskoelker> good morning
[10:20] <tinkywonk> need something
[10:20] <jonaskoelker> or good $TIMEZONE
[10:20] <adam7> !ot
[10:20] <Lareth> jonaskoelker: lol
[10:21] <tinkywonk> any ideas about my nvidia problem
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> SmokeyD1: log a bug
[10:21] <jonaskoelker> "<ubottu> [...]" <--- yeah, all of you answer my question and stop fiddling around! :D
[10:21] <SmokeyD1> ActionParsnip: why?
[10:21] <cagri> SmokeyD1 sudo passwd root
[10:21] <rajamocyc> Any one  can talk to me.
[10:21] <bonhoffer> ActionParsnip, adam7, http://pastie.org/356454 <-- still breaking
[10:21] <SmokeyD1> I don't have a bug
[10:21] <Tyrath> is there an iostream.h package in ubuntu? because the c compiler isn't locating it
[10:21] <bonhoffer> rajamocyc, do you have a question?
[10:21] <ActionParsnip> tinkywonk: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings; gksudo nvidia-settings
[10:22] <mizipzor> ubuntu wont mount my external usb drive, in /dev/ i have more than one partition on that disk, which is strange since i thought i used the entire disk, none of the partitions will mount but it works fine on a windows computer... any ideas?
[10:22] <SmokeyD1> I was just asking from a security point of view if I have to manually prevent users from booting into single user mode
[10:22] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: apt-file search iostream.h
[10:22] <SmokeyD1> or if that is standard in ubuntu
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> bonhoffer: sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-base-core
[10:22] <tinkywonk> i treied that but when i use the nvidia settings it is all greyed out
[10:22] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: or $ locate iostream.h
[10:22] <rajamocyc> No,  But this first time to log in
[10:22] <SmokeyD1> I don't want users switching off my machine, booting into single user mode and change the root password
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> bonhoffer: if you read the error you can see they are all wanting that package installed, so install it
[10:22] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: it should automatically detect it using #include
[10:22] <adam7> SmokeyD1: remove the grub entry and add a grub password. of course, if they have phsyical access to your box that won't help
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> bonhoffer: then try the command I gave you
[10:22] <server_> !ping
[10:22] <Dimitree> How to open a text file from a folder inside modprobe.d and have permissions to save changes to it ?
[10:23] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: wait, you said "c compiler"?  iostream is C++
[10:23] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: like should be in the c++ class path or something
[10:23] <adam7> SmokeyD1: so set the root password and then when you boot single user it should ask for it
[10:23] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: sorry that's what i meant :/
[10:23] <ActionParsnip> Dimitree: gksudo gedit /path/to/file
[10:23] <vazdyk> i don't know what i've done, but i hear myself when i speak to microphone. How to turn it off?
[10:23] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: try "#include <iostream>"
[10:23] <Dimitree> thank you ActionParsnip
[10:23] <rww> rajamocyc: You're connected to the #ubuntu channel on the Freenode IRC server. This channel is for Ubuntu technical support, not for general discussion. Offtopic Ubuntu discussion belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic, Freenode help in #freenode.
[10:23] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: so just take out the .h ?
[10:23] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: yep
[10:23] <rww> !irc | rajamocyc: for help with IRC
[10:24] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: "c++ class path" <--- you've done a lot of java, right? :)
[10:24] <bonhoffer> ActionParsnip, same error: http://pastie.org/356455
[10:24] <rajamocyc> i see
[10:24] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: I've done a year of university java
[10:24] <Weedy> i have a Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02) and on the live cd the connection pauses when transfering large ammounts of data
[10:24] <rajamocyc> thank I
[10:24] <Weedy> anyideas?
[10:24] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: ic; ... if you want to include plain-old-C header files, it's <cstdio>, <cstdlib>, ...; prepend a c, remove the .h
[10:25] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: but I can do ASP, PHP, SQL - that sorta thing if it helps... I know they're not programming languages but still...
[10:25] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: then the declarations end up in std::...
[10:25] <vazdyk> so how to stop this?
[10:25] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: they are
[10:25] <Lareth> Anyone with perl knowledge to help me modify Errno.pm so that I can bypass the problem?
[10:25] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: PHP at least
[10:25] <DwightShroot> anyone iphone familiar, that room is dead
[10:25] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: I think of PHP as a server side scripting language, it programs webpages and not programs and is consequently a scripting language
[10:25] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: I don't know ASP, so maybe you're right about that one
[10:26] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: that's atleast the way i've been taught...
[10:26] <rajamocyc> thank you , for you help,  And  Happy New Years for every one, Thank.........
[10:26] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: there's a stand-alone command-line interpreter.  I'm gonna' facestab anyone who delivers a client-side app as a PHP script, but it's _possible_ ;)
[10:26] <nunuk> joned me
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> bonhoffer: try: sudo apt-get -f install
[10:27] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: anyways, does your code compile now?
[10:27] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: actually come to think of it I think i'm guilty of that :P but as the app is still run server side I think I'm not 100% guilty :P
[10:27] <SmokeyD1> hey people. Would it be wise to chattr +a my syslog auth.log and messages log files? Or would that break logrotate or other apps?
[10:27] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: nope. no luck :/
[10:27] <Tekno> Hello, I'd want to make nice graph of temperatures. Can you name a software of that?
[10:27] <jonaskoelker> question for everybody: I try to run "xmodmap .Xmodmap", but get "xmodmap:  please release the following keys within 2 seconds: \n UNNAMED (keysym 0x0, keycode 125)", and then repeating with 4, 8, 16, 32 seconds.  What do I do?  Can I synthesize the relevant KeyRelease event somewhow?  If so, how?
[10:28] <vazdyk> Hello.When i speak anything to microphone i hear myself from boxes. How to turn off this option?
[10:28] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: actually i'm not guilty cause it's used by researchers for the company I made it for
[10:28] <jonaskoelker> Tekno: I suppose GNU units can be of help if you don't know the conversion yourself.  Add some shell-scripting glue and feed it into gnuplot... (if you have a unix beard...)
[10:28] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: if it was just used within the company i could be guilty...
[10:29] <Tekno> jonaskoelker: I'm sure there is program for that, but can't remember name
[10:29] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: it tells me cout and endl it doesn't recognise btw
[10:29] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: can you pasatebin your command and source file?
[10:29] <jonaskoelker> ah
[10:29] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: add "using namespace std;" after all the includes
[10:29] <tinkywonk> does no one know about the nvidia 96 driver on ubuntu 8.10
[10:29] <jonaskoelker> Tekno: besides, temperatures of what, and where does the data come from?
[10:30] <Tekno> jonaskoelker: lm-sensors
[10:30] <Tekno> cpu temp etc
[10:30] <jonaskoelker> Tekno: "sensors-applet"?
[10:30] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: test.C:1:21: warning: extra tokens at end of #include directive
[10:30] <Tekno> jonaskoelker: yea but I want to see graphs via apache server
[10:30] <jonaskoelker> Tekno: collectd
[10:30] <jonaskoelker> ?
[10:30] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: got a pastebin?
[10:31] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: my code's really not worth the effort... something really basic. just trying to get it to compile. and it does compile if I remove cout, endl and #include <iostream>
[10:32] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: i know enough about programming to understand that the include isn't working
[10:32] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: which is why the methods i'm calling are also failing
[10:32] <jonaskoelker> ok
[10:33] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: but if it's anything like PHP #include <blah> is just like include(blah.html) or something...
[10:33] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: or is #include <> like import package.* in java?
[10:33] <Fife3951> Hey guys/gals... fairly new to Linux and Ubuntu... What bit torrent client do people recommend, and why.... or is Transmission pretty good.  I'm not looking for anything super complex.
[10:34] <yaris123456789> hey guys is there a tor host out there? so i just enter the ip of server running tor, so i wont have to run tor myself on my server?
[10:34] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: more like php: it just does textual substitution
[10:34] <rww> Fife3951: transmission should be fine. You could also try deluge-torrent or (if you decide you want a command-line one) rtorrent.
[10:34] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: ah k
[10:34] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: but typically, there's only declarations in the headers
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> !torrent | Fife3951
[10:34] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: so the mechanism is like PHP, but the concept is more like java
[10:34] <ActionParsnip> Fife3951: try a few, see which you prefer
[10:35] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: ah k
[10:35] <dustrial> is a upgrade to ubuntu 8.10 intrepid save now? or still buggy?
[10:35] <rww> yaris123456789: ask in the #tor channel on irc.oftc.net. Not many people in here use it.
[10:35] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: I just got this random idea that if I learned C++ I'd be more employable
[10:35] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: ... in that it adds meaning to some names without pulling the actual code in
[10:35] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: that's probably true
[10:35] <ActionParsnip> dustrial: works ok here but i only use official repos and VERY linux friendly hardware
[10:35] <Fife3951> rww and actionparsnip - thanks guys, appreciate the help.
[10:35] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: which would you say is more used out of java and C++?
[10:36] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: if I was to give an aswer, I'd find some half-assed data and refer you to that
[10:36] <tinkywonk> i think 8.10 isstill very buggy
[10:36] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: haha no worries.
[10:36] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: it's open source, what were you expecting?
[10:36] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: I don't know myself.  I've had one programming job, and the company used C++, Java, C#, python, perl and maybe a few others
[10:36] <Lareth> adam7: for some reason Errno.pm which causes the error (or one of the errors) has hardcoded the version that it supports.
[10:36] <Lareth> I will try and change that
[10:36] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: I wouldn't be surprised to find some C in there as well
[10:36] <Lareth> and if my machine does not explode I will comment on that
[10:37] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: also if you haven't noticed you pay for windows and it is also buggy
[10:37] <tinkywonk> yes i know its open source but all the things that worked in 8.4 do not work now in 8.10 lol something wrong there
[10:37] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: my opinion (based on nothing) is that it's better to learn C before C++
[10:37] <ActionParsnip> Tyrath: tinkywonk: every OS sucks remember
[10:37] <Ceppe> irc://irc.101-freedom.org/xilence
[10:37] <tinkywonk> windows more than most
[10:37] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: actually you have a point there
[10:38] <jonaskoelker> :)
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> tinkywonk: all OS suck, no OS is perfect or we'd all se it
[10:38]  * jonaskoelker joins the bashing
[10:38] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: i generally find i have to tweak everything in 8.10
[10:38] <jonaskoelker> windows sucks
[10:38] <FloodBot3> jonaskoelker: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:38] <jonaskoelker> FloodBot3: stfu
[10:38] <ActionParsnip> jonaskoelker: it has far better driver support than linux
[10:38] <jussi01> !stfu | jonaskoelker
[10:38] <Lareth> adam7: Yay!!! it worked!!!
[10:38] <Tyrath> ActionParsnip: sucks is a strong word. hard to operate without an OS :P
[10:38] <Flannel> jonaskoelker: Please watch your language, and stay on topic
[10:38] <jonaskoelker> ActionParsnip: what, I have to base my opinion on _fact_? :O
[10:38] <tinkywonk> i like 8.10 but i cant get an old mx400 card to work on my pc and i cant get my crad reader to work on my laptop but other than that its sounbd
[10:38] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: thanks for the tip but this is just for a part time job
[10:39] <jonaskoelker> Flannel, jussi01: I'll keep that in mind
[10:39] <pengo> tinkywonk: i've had more problems than that
[10:39] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: ok
[10:39] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: PHP wasn't hard to learn as I knew ASP
[10:39] <tinkywonk> and my typing is so bad this morming
[10:39] <ActionParsnip> jonaskoelker: its all individual, i dont mind windows. I prefer BSD to linux personally
[10:39] <ActionParsnip> jonaskoelker: its a tool for a job
[10:39] <jonaskoelker> ActionParsnip: we found a fanboy! may we burn him?
[10:39] <nsadmin> Tyrath: if you learn C before C++ as it has been traditionally taught, the skills you gain let you build more robust c++ classes
[10:39] <jonaskoelker> :P
[10:39] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: PHP also wasn't taught in my degree, had to learn it cause a client for one of my subjects wanted us to make the webpages using it
[10:40] <Djon> Hi all
[10:40] <tinkywonk> i dont understand about the card though as it worked in 8.4 but not 8.10
[10:40] <Lareth> ActionParsnip: it seems that I just needed to comment out the linux kernel version checking in Errno.pm
[10:40] <_anu> how to let gedit always show next 5 lines ?
[10:40] <Tyrath> nsadmin: i'll keep that in mind
[10:40] <ActionParsnip> jonaskoelker: i'm far from it. I dont use 1 OS, I use many to achieve my goals.  If you are willing to set it up for someone it's not so bad
[10:43] <jonaskoelker> :O
[10:43] <Fuse_> Fucking retards.
[10:43] <trall> Ubuntu is easier to use than windows
[10:43] <trall> It's a swedish army knife disguised as a butter knife
[10:43] <Tyrath> trall: yes, if you know how to use shell that's true
[10:44] <ActionParsnip> trall: both can as easily be used to browse the web as the next
[10:44] <eghie> hello
[10:44] <rww> trall: that should be "swiss"; also, in #ubuntu-offtopic.
[10:44] <trall> For simple users, it's hardly going to bother them
[10:44] <dustrial> PENGO => imho just a troll
[10:44] <pengo> dustrial: how so?
[10:44] <eghie> how can I change the NICE of a running daemon?
[10:44] <jonaskoelker> eghie: renice
[10:44] <trall> rww: lol, I know. I realized after I wrote it
[10:44] <Flannel> dustrial: that's not really necessary.
[10:44] <eghie> jonaskoelker, thanks
[10:44] <Gnea> pengo: did you ever submit any bug reports for any of those problems?
[10:44] <Tyrath> I deleated pidgin btw. use bitlbee - it's a lot easier but you'll need an irc client which you obviously all have :P
[10:44] <jonaskoelker> eghie: 'welcome
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> eghie: renice, -20 is full cpu (will neglect others) and 20 is hardly any cpu time
[10:45] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: bitlbee for the win :)
[10:45] <ActionParsnip> eghie: i'd sugest -8 as a max
[10:45] <pengo> Gnea: many are known, well documented issues.. i've submitted some bug reports all the same.
[10:45] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: :D i'm only unhappy that I can't do skype through bitlbee :/
[10:45] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: ... but when can I get webcam support in irssi? ;)
[10:45] <eghie> thanks, it works
[10:45] <eghie> nice, is only CPU time, or also other resources?
[10:45] <dustrial> just start to fly through ur comment and first of all compiz cant be any issue second use wine FFS ^^ my windows games are faster under linux ... if you dont stand the need to optimize problems urself ... noone cant help you but paid professionals who want your money.
[10:45] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: that's a good point :P
[10:45] <jonaskoelker> eghie: AFAIK, only cpu time
[10:46] <eghie> ok
[10:46] <tinkywonk> can anyone help me with my nvidia problem as really getting anoyed with it now
[10:46] <jonaskoelker> eghie: try ionice also (apt-file search ionice)
[10:46] <ActionParsnip> eghie: well if the cpu is working on the process it will get the resources it needs to run
[10:46] <clansman5> hello
[10:46] <eghie> jonaskoelker, ionice would be something im looking for atm yes
[10:46]  * Tyrath is laughing at how he somehow randomly fixed his nvidia issue ages ago and has no idea how he did it
[10:46] <jonaskoelker> clansman5: hello
[10:46] <clansman5> anyone know how to add documentation to devhelp ?
[10:47] <tinkywonk> lol
[10:47] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: but I wrote my fix somewhere on ubuntu forums
[10:47] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: it's in one of the threads
[10:47] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: type nvidia in the search ubuntuforums.org
[10:47] <jonaskoelker> clansman5: "all the obvious aspects of gnome have already been documented, and explaining technical details is against gnome policy"
[10:47] <jonaskoelker> (sorry)
[10:47] <ActionParsnip> tinkywonk: whats your issue
[10:47] <tinkywonk> it really is weird casue ubuntu tells me to use the 96 driver but after reading all the info on the web xconfig does not work with it and it does not say anywhere how to get round the problem
[10:48] <clansman5> "jonaskoelker
[10:48] <clansman5>  :)
[10:49] <tinkywonk> i install ubuntu 8.10 clean install did all the updates and it recomends me to activate the 96 driver but when i do i get low reslolution and cant change it
[10:49] <eghie> thanks jonaskoelker and ActionParsnip for your help, that was enough information for now :)
[10:49] <Tyrath> tinkywonk: you should activate the 177 driver
[10:49] <chilli0> hello all
[10:49] <jonaskoelker> eghie: once again, yw :)
[10:49] <eghie> ionice is working very well
[10:49] <jonaskoelker> chilli0: hello world
[10:49] <chilli0> how can i make ubuntu pass ssh onto a vm
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> tinkywonk: sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings; gksudo nvidia-settings
[10:49] <chilli0> so if some one ssh to this compter it will make the ssh go to the vm
[10:49] <ActionParsnip> tinkywonk: if you get something about nvidia-xorg; run: sudo nvidia-xorg
[10:50] <tinkywonk> i dont have an option to activate any other drivers and if i use envyng and do the 177 that way when i reboot it resets to low graphics
[10:50] <ActionParsnip> tinkywonk: then restart x
[10:50] <Chiliblack> what does ata1: SRST failed (errno=-16) mean?
[10:50] <jonaskoelker> chilli0: you could ssh into the vm with port forwarding
[10:50] <Av2> Hello
[10:50] <Av2> Greetings everyone
[10:50] <Gnea> pengo: wow, who told you that gimp and photoshop were equal?
[10:50] <jonaskoelker> chilli0: ssh -L22:virtualmachine:22 virtualmachine:2222
[10:50] <jonaskoelker> where ssh is running on port 2222 on the vm
[10:51] <jonaskoelker> and 22
[10:51] <clansman5> chilli0: configure your network connection first
[10:51] <_anu> who knows -> ? how to let gedit always show next couple of lines
[10:51] <jonaskoelker> chilli0: actually, you could just$ ssh -L22:vm:22 vm:22
[10:51] <Av2> Is there a way to scan and fix errors of disk like we have an option in windows
[10:51] <rww> !fsck | Av2
[10:51] <ActionParsnip> Av2: fsck
[10:51] <jonaskoelker> chilli0: you can (probably) also add an iptables rule that reroutes or SNATs the packet
[10:51] <jonaskoelker> (maybe)
[10:52] <pengo> Gnea: i've seen it mentioned many times that gimp is a photoshop replacement, as i'm sure you have also
[10:52] <chilli0> my router thinks that only on computer is connected
[10:52] <Gnea> pengo: so who paid you to write that?
[10:52] <tinkywonk> im trying that now lads one sec
[10:52] <Av2> Thanks
[10:52] <jonaskoelker> pengo: I've also seen it mentioned that it's not...
[10:52] <dustrial> Gnea: photoshop works fine with wine.
[10:52] <chilli0> and i want people from out of the network
[10:52] <jonaskoelker> _anu: always show the next lines?
[10:52] <chilli0> to ssh to my computer
[10:52] <Gnea> dustrial: that's true
[10:52] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: if you learn gimp its actually very good. Ive seen some cracking work come out of it
[10:52] <Flannel> Gnea:/lastlog -clear
[10:52] <menocchio> hi all, does somebody know a repository to get openoffice.org 3 for ubuntu?
[10:52] <_anu> jonaskoelker : yes sir
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: you just gotta learn stuff thats different to adobes offering
[10:53] <simplenewb> someone PLEASE!!!! tell me how to get me two computer to connect over ethernet so I can swap files. I  can ping each computer from the other, ssh in and connect but that's it. If I try to connect using samba my laptop says no appication is installed to handle this type of file. I have samba, samba-common and smb-client installed. On my desktop I do have samba-server installed. I've also tried sftp but I keep getting the message conn
[10:53] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: you're telling the wrong person :)
[10:53] <pengo> Gnea: it's my own experience. what don't you believe?
[10:53] <jonaskoelker> _anu: so you want the cursor to never be at the bottom of the window, essentially?
[10:53] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: you sound like you think photoshop is better
[10:53] <clansman5> simplenewb: you can use scp to exchange files
[10:53] <dustrial> ActionParsnip:  yeah, but i got the feeling that unix-like-painting tools are evry conter-intuitive ( there is a patch for gimp to make menues ps-alike
[10:53] <alluk> hi
[10:53] <chilli0> Gnea:  adobe photo shop cs2 works under wine
[10:53] <chilli0> hello alluk
[10:53] <Gnea> simplenewb: have you installed SWAT and setup samba?
[10:53] <jonaskoelker> _anu: I'm not sure how to do that.  I think it'd require a plugin, and I don't know of any one (but my knowledge is incomplete, and I'm not >95% sure)
[10:54] <kabackky> hi, anybody ever come across a problem where in hardy herron, after a while the whole screen turns to what looks like static or lines, if I switch to other screens, the screen is still corrupted? I seem to be able to work around the problem by turning off special effects.
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> menocchio: http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8-10-96449.shtml
[10:54] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: I use sshfs with great success
[10:54] <simplenewb> clansman5: I've tried that to and I still get the connection refused message I'm at my end here
[10:54] <oCean_> simplenewb: two linux machines?
[10:54] <Av2> what is the command for using Fschk?
[10:54] <_anu> jonaskoelker : thank you :)
[10:54] <alluk> i have just installed ubuntu but it doesn't boot, the first error message is: "usplash: Setting mode 1920x1440 failed"
[10:54] <jonaskoelker> _anu: yw :)
[10:54] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: uhm, hello? read this and please be sure you're talking to the right person: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6520809
[10:54] <simplenewb> oCean_: yes
[10:54] <menocchio> ActionParsnip: thanks, i'll have a look
[10:54] <ActionParsnip> dustrial: then just learn different menus like you learned to use ubuntu instead of windows
[10:54] <pengo> gimp does not support 16 bit per colour, and only imports raw images poorly (with a plugin).
[10:54] <clansman5> simplenewb: can you show a usage example, maybe you miss some parameters
[10:55] <pengo> (camera raw)
[10:55] <Gnea> Flannel: right.
[10:55] <zer0> what more application same as network manager also can be installed both with no conflict???
[10:55] <jonaskoelker> alluk: when it starts up, press esc to enter grub.  Pick the top entry and hit 'e' to edit.  Change the line that says "linu"-something--removing the "splash"
[10:55] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: its just a new tool to learn, just like you learned ubuntu when you moved over from windows
[10:55] <jonaskoelker> alluk: and try again :)
[10:55] <simplenewb> jonaskoelker: i have sshfs installed, no help. I can connect each computer to the other in every way except the way I need. I don't get it.
[10:55] <chilli0> zer0:  im not sure if u can but wcid is great im using it atm
[10:55] <jonaskoelker> alluk: if it works, you can make the same change in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:56] <Gnea> ActionParsnip: pm?
[10:56] <ActionParsnip> Gnea: if you want
[10:56] <zer0> chilli0::wicd can be installed together with nm
[10:56] <rww> zer0: Do you understand /why/ wicd and NM were /deliberately/ set so that their packages conflict? If you have two different programs controlling your network interfaces doing anything more than trivial things, they're going to step on each others' toes.
[10:56] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: what happens when you$ "sshfs userAtBoxA@BoxA: mountpoint-for-A"?
[10:56] <chilli0> o
[10:57] <zer0> rww::but i have problem with nm on fluxbox
[10:57] <oCean_> simplenewb: okay, so what is your command (and the output) Command should be like "scp filename user@otherhost:/path/to/location"
[10:57] <rww> zer0: then uninstall it and use wicd =/
[10:57] <zer0> or how can i make it show nm icon on startup??
[10:57] <Av2> I cant mount one of my disk it is giving error how do i fix it
[10:57] <etu> Hi there!
[10:57] <trall> okay guys
[10:57] <Joe_> intrepid, system froze while Azureus(Vuze) was open, restarted but now it seems Azureus won't recognize my settings from before (went to a default set up) but all my old settings are still in home folder... any ideas how to fix it?
[10:57] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: just a thought do I have to install anything before I can adequately program in C++ ?
[10:57] <jonaskoelker> Av2: pastebin the error and give us a link :)
[10:57] <dustrial> ActionParsnip: well i am not afraid of learning menues... i just say paint-guis are counterintuitive in unix world... i still use em ;D
[10:57] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: your editor of choice and a compiler
[10:58] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: I don't have to install packages and the like?
[10:58] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: like is there a jdk for C++?
[10:58] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: I think they come with the compiler
[10:58] <simplenewb> I'm trying the commands again and gathering info, I have to connect to my desktop again, physically.
[10:58] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: see this is really weird :/
[10:59] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: is there any package that prints lines you know of?
[10:59] <alluk> jonaskoelker: i get the same error message
[10:59] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: other than iostream?
[10:59] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: the C++ standard library is quite small (compared to anything other than C)
[10:59] <zer0> what is best way to i install wicd??sudo/synaptic??
[10:59] <rww> zer0: http://wicd.sourceforge.net/download.php
[10:59] <Tyrath> zer0: sudo apt-get install
[10:59] <jonaskoelker> alluk: ok :(  I'm out of ideas
[10:59] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: <cstdio>, the printf function
[10:59] <Tyrath> zer0: actually ignore that :P
[11:00] <etu> Hmm, does anyone have some ide about problems with Ubuntu 8.10 on HP nx6110? I will install it on a friends laptop today.
[11:00] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: i'll see if that works cheers
[11:00] <mizipzor> ubuntu wont mount my external usb drive, in /dev/ i have more than one partition on that disk, which is strange since i thought i used the entire disk, none of the partitions will mount but it works fine on a windows computer... any ideas?
[11:00] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: ... or just putchar/getchar
[11:00] <Av2> jonaskoelker:  pls accept the file
[11:00] <zer0> i think i will get internet problem then...
[11:00] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: main { int c; while ((c = getchar()) != -1) putchar(c); return 0; }
[11:00] <jonaskoelker> Av2: please pastebin it
[11:00] <Av2> i cant its a screen shot
[11:00] <jonaskoelker> Av2: or flickr or some anonymous image hosting
[11:01] <etu> Av2: http://imagehost.org/
[11:01] <jonaskoelker> etu: is that the one everybody uses on brainstorm too?
[11:01] <Rudd-O> for those who are interested: http://rudd-o.com/en/linux-and-free-software/a-better-way-to-create-a-customized-ubuntu-live-usb-drive
[11:01] <pengo> mizipzor: maybe you've unmounted it uncleanly in windows
[11:01] <etu> jonaskoelker: Dunno, about the laptop?
[11:01] <jonaskoelker> etu: no, imagehost.org
[11:02] <pengo> mizipzor: does it bring up an error message?
[11:02] <pablop> how do I monitor cpu and memory usage on ubuntu server?
[11:02] <etu> jonaskoelker: hm, no idea, but it works better than all other imagehosts sites I know
[11:02] <Av2> thanks etu
[11:02] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: I don't get it. wouldn't that loop just never start?
[11:02] <Av2> jonaskoelker:  http://e.imagehost.org/0634/Screenshot.png
[11:02] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: s/-1/EOF/
[11:02] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: ah k
[11:03] <woody86> can anyone help mp figure out why my wireless works, but won't show me any networks?
[11:03] <mizipzor> pengo: ntfs signature missing
[11:03] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: still int i needs a value :/
[11:03] <simplenewb> oCean_, jonaskoelker, clansman5: it finally connected. I can't believe it, I've been at this for hours, googling, testing, installed, re-installing, un-installing, screaming, cursing, etc.... I connected using a different router this time I guess my old crappy befws11 just doesn't like me anymore. Thanks guys. The only way I can assume is helped is with magic.
[11:03] <pengo> mizipzor: i dunno
[11:03] <mizipzor> pengo: which would indicate that there is no ntfs partition at all, but since the disk works fine in windows...
[11:03] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: actually scrap that. i still don't think i get the method
[11:04] <jonaskoelker> Av2: are you sure the volume is OK (i.e. you don't need to chkdisk /f)?
[11:04] <oCean_> simplenewb: yay! :)
[11:04] <liuweigang> hello
[11:04] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: or, your old router hates linux ;)
[11:04] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: congrats on getting it working, no matter what the magic is :)
[11:05] <jonaskoelker> liuweigang: hello
[11:05] <jonaskoelker> pablop: top?
[11:05] <Av2> jonaskoelker:  how do i test it
[11:05] <simplenewb> oCean_: Exactly! I've been so frustrated with linux lately, I've personally experienced several annoying regressions.
[11:05] <livre> livre
[11:05] <jonaskoelker> pablop: or x-forwarded conky, or collectd...
[11:05] <livre> livre
[11:05] <jonaskoelker> Av2: try the chkdisk /f reboot reboot dance and see if anything changes
[11:05] <simplenewb> jonaskoelker: thanks, you can't understand how happy i am.
[11:06] <jonaskoelker> Av2: sucks, I know; read a good comic while doing it :)
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> simplenewb: like what?
[11:06] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: just as happy as when I recovered my /home partition after deleting it by accident? :P
[11:08] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: here's a really noob question but how do you execute a file after you've compiled it. it said in a tutorial that you just type it in shell
[11:08] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: aka: g++ test.C -o test; test
[11:08] <simplenewb> ActionParsnip: Bluetooth transfers stopped working out of the box, and after installing additional packages. Laptop brightness control now crashes my computer as opposed to working like it used to. I can no longer read MMC cards from my built in card reader. My desktop machine doesn't work with a fresh install if I have a PCI video card installed, it worked for the 7.04 and 7.10 releases for the first time ever and now it's broke ag
[11:08] <oCean_> Tyrath: if it's executable (chmod +x test), then "./test" should work
[11:09] <Tyrath> oCean_: do I have to change permissions on it to executible?
[11:09] <Tyrath> oCean_: doesn't the compiler handle that stuff?
[11:09] <oCean_> Tyrath: I'm not sure
[11:09] <Tyrath> oCean_: in java i don't need to worry, i just use java <filename>
[11:09] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: the compiler makes output files executable
[11:09] <simplenewb> jonaskoelker: Oh yours is worse. that happened to me once and I was just screwed because I had enabled full drive encryption and couldn't get anything else (including a live cd) to mount the disk
[11:10] <ActionParsnip> simplenewb: sick with gutsy then
[11:10] <mizipzor> if i had a usb drive plugged into windows and then unplugged it in a non-clean way, is there a way to get around that except for plugging it into windows again and doing it cleanly? dont have access to a windows install here
[11:10] <oCean_> ah
[11:10] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: so why doesn't typing test in shell work?
[11:10] <jonaskoelker> Tyrath: probably because '.' is not in your $PATH
[11:10] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: oooooh...
[11:10] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: disk encryption vs. partition recovery :(
[11:10] <Tyrath> jonaskoelker: ahh k
[11:10] <simplenewb> ActionParsnip: I had thought about it but several packages I used don't play nice with gutsy and I really need those packages.
[11:11] <jonaskoelker> simplenewb: wait, can't you set up the same wrapper on a livecd and just not mount the b0rked partition?  after all, it's the block device, not the file system, that's encrypted...
