[00:00] <erUSUL> vlt: ffmpeg -i file.flv file.mpeg
[00:00] <jrib> Uplink: man wget<Enter>/-O<Enter>
[00:00] <vlt> erUSUL: Thank you.
[00:00] <natalie> So, at the suggestion of another member here, I watched my Processor temp in my BIOS.  From the time I looked at it, until when I exited, The temperature had climbed from 33 C to 39 C in about 5 minutes.  Can anyone tell me what that might mean.
[00:00] <Rusty0918> It is a sata drive
[00:00] <rmn> erUSUL, yes, two linies
[00:00] <erat123> has anyone ever gotten openldap working as a server with windows boxes as clients?
[00:00] <rmn> -i
[00:00] <Dr_willis_> or mencoder..  im still not clear on how  the 2 are related..
[00:00] <Rusty0918> hololight: Yes it is a SATA
[00:00] <Uplink> jrib: thanx :D
[00:00] <Petein>  hi. how can i delete recursively all the files whose name contain the string "AAA" ?
[00:00] <jrib> natalie: those temperatures seem fine
[00:00] <cmdbbq> Dr_willis_: they are different programs that do essentially the same thing
[00:00] <BlueEagle> natalie: Did you have a look in /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/temperature?
[00:01] <jrib> natalie: well for any processor I've owned anyway
[00:01] <Dr_willis_> Petein   with creative use of the find command.. is one way
[00:01] <erUSUL> rmn: so the driver is loaded... can you post your « dmesg » output on a pastebin ?
[00:01] <natalie> BlueEagle, no I didn't
[00:01] <hololight> well, the boot up sequence is two part.... it take it, it is giving you that problem after quite a bit has already loaded? like when it says it is trying to load files to boot the system?
[00:01] <cmdbbq> the ubuntu version of ffmpeg doesn't support a few codecs, most notably mp3, for legal reasons, not sure about mencoder
[00:01] <jrib> Petein: or with zsh globbing!  find works too like Dr_willis_ said
[00:01] <BlueEagle> natalie: When your looking at your bios screen your computer is hardly working. But if you watch the temperature while your machine is actually doing stuff you will see a whole other result.
[00:02] <Rusty0918> hololight: Well it is in the middle of the base system install when it's giving me that message
[00:02] <rmn> erUSUL, interesting line: [  850.947249] ata1: reset failed (errno=-5), retrying in 8 secs
[00:02] <rmn> [  858.725083] ata1: hard resetting link
[00:02] <natalie> BlueEagle, how would I be able to monitor it while it is running?
[00:02] <erUSUL> Petein: use it at your own risk → find folder/ -name '*AAA*' -exec rm {} \;
[00:02] <Rusty0918> hololight: I don't know if it has anything to do with my problem, but yes the boot is two-part.
[00:03] <rmn> erUSUL, it repeats that over and over for ata1 and ata2 (card has two drives)
[00:03] <jrib> erUSUL: -delete is easier to write :)
[00:03] <erUSUL> rmn: yep... but it is weird that problems appear only by adding more ram
[00:03] <IaintheRed> Is there a easy way to apt-get remove the binutils with out removing the other files or is there a way to apt-get install a older version of the binutils? or should I just creat a symbolic link to the currect version to reflect the older version name??
[00:03] <BlueEagle> natalie: You could repeatedly cat the file and watch the value change or you can use an application that monitors that file for changes and updates a display.
[00:03] <jrib> !away > Srinster
[00:03] <erUSUL> rmn: maybe the sata cables (or power) loosened when you opened the case
[00:03] <erUSUL> jrib: noted ;P
[00:04] <BlueEagle> natalie: The BIOS is not the only place where you can read the cpu temperature.
[00:04] <BlueEagle> :)
[00:04] <rmn> erUSUL, i rewired, and i find it improbable that three distinct wires are broken/loose
[00:04] <csilk> natalie, yeah
[00:04] <Rusty0918> hololight: Still with me?
[00:04] <jrib> erUSUL: though I'm not sure if it will have a different result.  ie it may delete directories
[00:04] <rmn> other drives got far rougher treatment, but they're on the mobo and works fine
[00:04] <hololight> Rusty0918: Well, I have heard of a few cases (not many), where there was a problem with the system loading the drivers for a SATA cd drive. But since you are saying the desktop version is working fine, I am almost at a loss
[00:05] <amrik> hi i am trying to set up vista as a dual boot (ubuntu is my main). what do i need to be careful of to avoid overwriting all my data?
[00:05] <natalie> csilk, BlueEagle: Any program suggestions
[00:05] <gravemind1> jrib: alright sounds good. So after I do                  apt-get install $(for package in $(aptitude -F '%p' search '~Aintrepid-backports~i'); do echo -n ${package}'/intrepid ' ; done)      I should replace it with       apt-get install $(for package in $(aptitude -F '%p' search '~Aintrepid-security~i'); do echo -n ${package}'/intrepid-security ' ; done)
[00:05] <erUSUL> rmn: well; i can not think on any other cause... may be a kernel bug. Report it
[00:05] <erUSUL> !bugs | rmn
[00:05] <BlueEagle> !google linux cpu temerature monitor
[00:05] <erUSUL> jrib: maybe we should add a -type f XD
[00:05] <rmn> erUSUL, ok.  but *if* it is a bug then it *ought* to return to normal by removing the ram-socket?
[00:05] <Rusty0918> hololight: Perhaps it could be a bug in the image itself perhaps. 8.10 server wasn't launched too long ago
[00:05] <gravemind1> jrib: and after that do -security, -updates, and then just /intrepid
[00:05] <rmn> erUSUL, for what it's worth i went from 2GB to 4GB (x64)
[00:06] <Uplink> lol i have 250 processes
[00:06] <jrib> gravemind1: nope, you need to change -backports to -proposed and that stays constant.  Then you should start with /intrepid-security, then /intrepid-updates, then /intrepid
[00:06] <hololight> Rusty0918: you could try and download the Alternate Installer cd?
[00:06] <jrib> gravemind1: you should be running it 3 times
[00:06] <Rusty0918> hololight: And since most people download the desktop verison anyways...I guess that may have been overlooked.
[00:06] <Rusty0918> hololight: Alternate Installer CD?
[00:06] <Rusty0918> hololight: What's that?
[00:06] <rmn> Rusty0918, just a different iso with an old, classic installer
[00:07] <hololight> Rusty0918: The other 'non-ideal' solution is to set up your desktop install as a server.... quite possible
[00:07] <erUSUL> rmn: well it may be worth trying just to make sure it is the extra ram. it woulb be weird but with computers you never know
[00:07] <nat2610> how can I see what ressources is using my soundcard ... I don't have any more sound .... I know if I reboot it will work again but I'm curious why right now nothing is played
[00:07] <gravemind1> jrib: alright -- I already ran the first command I showed you, which downgraded some backports I think. I will run it correctly now
[00:07] <Rusty0918> hololight: Where do I get that from?
[00:07] <VanessaE> I'm trying to examine some files sitting on a friend's Ipod, but when I plug it in, I either get a window with files that I can't actually read (the file manager hangs) or nothing at all happens
[00:07] <IaintheRed> anyone here good with binutils?
[00:07] <VanessaE> it is an iPod Nano 8GB.
[00:07] <nat2610> or is there anything I can restart in terms of process to get the sound back ?
[00:07] <rmn> erUSUL, granted. :)  i'll mess with it tomorrow, thanks for your assistance.
[00:07] <DavidCanarias> I cant get amsn to work properly. Can anyone help me please???
[00:07] <BlueEagle> !ipod
[00:08] <erUSUL> rmn: no problem
[00:08] <hololight> rusty0918: On the download page, server, off to the right; the link is not very obvious
[00:08] <nat2610> !sound
[00:08] <jrib> gravemind1: hmm.  Maybe it's easier to just do /intrepid and then upgrade your system after removing -proposed.  I don't think my suggestion will work (you'll end up with the same result)
[00:08] <Peddy> Do I need to remove flashplugin-nonfree if I want to install the 64-bit *official* Adobe Flash plugin?
[00:08] <deigel> on my laptop running ubuntu, the wifi seems to turn itself off, if the computer doesn't have activity and the screen dims for sometime.  how do i avoid that ever disconnecting ?
[00:08] <Trashlord> Peddy: yes
[00:08] <VanessaE> BlueEagle, already been there, that page is no help at all
[00:08] <jrib> Peddy: you should, yes
[00:08] <VanessaE> I can't manage what I can't yet see
[00:08] <flats> Any ubuntu networks around?  I could really use a little help.  I have a laptop with a wired NIC and wireless ( pretty standard).  I am running Ubuntu 8.10 and if I do ifconfig, I have a eth0 eth1 eth0:avahi and lo.  My wired works but if I select the globe at the top right my ETH1 shows my SSID of my wireless and a full blue bar yet I get no connection and the ETH1 in ifconfig shows no Address
[00:08] <erUSUL> Peddy: yes but keep in mind that the 64 bit plugin is *alpha*
[00:08] <earthmeLon> hey buddies!!  I'm trying to get Tor+Vidalia+Foxyproxy working in firefox under 8.04 and it seems everything is working, but my ip address is not changing.  I had to compile vidalia from source to get it to work and I installed tor from apt-get.  Does anybody here have any suggestions for me to help getting my Tor working?
[00:09] <habit_> Hello guys. Advice me please - how to make ubuntustudio bootsplash widescreen? Stretched image looks really horrible.
[00:09] <Rusty0918> hololight: I see what you mean
[00:09] <gravemind1> jrib: alright, so just doing /intrepid, then apt-get upgrading
[00:09] <Rusty0918> hololight: I'm wondering if its buggy or something
[00:09] <jrib> gravemind1: apt-get upgrading only after removing -proposed from sources.list and running apt-get update, yes
[00:09] <Peddy> erUSUL: I know, but I'm giving it a shot because the I'm affected by 7 major bugs using the nspluginwrapper way.
[00:09] <KillerOrca> flats: any encryption enabled?
[00:09] <Dr_willis_> !tor
[00:09] <gravemind1> hmm jrib, I have already removed -proposed.
[00:09] <erUSUL> Peddy: ok; good luck
[00:10] <Dr_willis_> They need to make a better factoid for that. :()
[00:10] <flats> yes it says (WPA/RSN)
[00:10] <jrib> gravemind1: you need to put it back for the first command to work
[00:10] <Peddy> :)
[00:10] <hololight> Rusty0918: Well, another option is to download a previous version and try that, but I dont think you will get much more mileage.
[00:10] <gravemind1> jrib: thank explains why it didn't work then :P alright
[00:10] <earthmeLon> That's not very helpful Dr_willis_
[00:10] <Uplink> MTecknology: why is conky acting up on me? it hid all my desktop shortcuts and its on the middle
[00:10] <cmdbbq> I am (still;-) following this how to: http://preview.tinyurl.com/5omaxe , but I want to run proftpd from inetd rather than as a standalone, is the command different? when i run the command given (to start the server) I get the following error: ProFTPd is started from inetd/xinetd.
[00:11] <hololight> Rusty0918: I would say first try the alt; then if it still doesn't work, set up a desktop install as your web server.
[00:11] <MTecknology> Uplink: watch the output
[00:11] <erUSUL> Dr_willis_: you are wellcome to try to make it better ;)
[00:11] <deigel> earthmeLon: there is a line in the privoxy config file you need to uncomment, then restart privoxy using /etc/init.d/privoxy restart.  the line, has to do with fowarding socks4a. also don't use foxyproxy, use torbutton, foxyproxy is not secure.
[00:11] <flats> KillerOrcA:  Yes, it shows (WPA/RSN)
[00:11] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: what happens when you execute the read-sysinfo-extended command?
[00:11] <jrib> gravemind1: basically, the command searches for all installed packages that have a version in -proposed, then tells apt to install the version from 'intrepid' repos of that package
[00:11] <mib> how can i upgrade the java version. it requires me to have Java 1.5.0
[00:11] <KillerOrca> flats: ok, so you do have encryption enabled on the network?
[00:11] <mib> but i only have java version "1.4.2-02"
[00:12] <VanessaE> command not found :)
[00:12] <earthmeLon> deigel.  I will use torbutton instead of foxyproxy.  Thanks for the suggestion.  I'll try reading up on what makes it better.  I will also edit my pricvoxy config file.  Would that be located in my home dir?  .privoxy or something?
[00:12] <flats> KillerOrca: Yes I do
[00:12] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: So you didn't read the link in that article that explains how to manage your ipod nano then?
[00:12] <MTecknology> Uplink: gtg- good luck w/ it
[00:12] <erUSUL> mib: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre
[00:12] <jrib> gravemind1: if you want, you can just run the inside part and then deal with the packages manually (specifying /intrepid or /intrepid-security or /interpid-updates yourself as appropriate)
[00:12] <Krzysztof> Anyone: I installed Ubuntu 8.10. And I have the nVidia video card for my laptop. But not the latest drivers. 2 questions - Where can I get the latest drivers and will that change the appearance of Ubuntu. Because right now it looks like Knoppix. =/
[00:12] <KillerOrca> flats: have you tried temporarily removing the encryption?
[00:13] <mib> sun-java6-jre is already the newest version.
[00:13] <VanessaE> BlueEagle, as I said, I've already looked at that page.
[00:13] <earthmeLon> deigel: /etc/privoxy/config
[00:13] <Dr_willis_> Krzysztof  drivers dont change the 'look' of the desktop.. other then perhaps for the default resolution.
[00:13] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: To get the iPod 3rd Generation Nano to work, you may find this article helpful:
[00:13] <Krzysztof> Willis: How would I change the resolution then?
[00:13] <flats> Killerorca: Ya know I thought I about that, but thought there might be something easy I'm missing.  Let me try that.  BRB
[00:13] <gravemind1> jrib: I think I'll do them automatically if possible just so I won't mess anything up
[00:13] <Krzysztof> Willis: I'm quite new to Linux
[00:13] <Rusty0918> hololight: OK I'm gonna try an older version and see where that takes me
[00:13] <hololight> Krzysztof: System-> Administration-> Hardware Drivers
[00:13] <VanessaE> I'm told this is not a 3G but rather a 'classic' ipod (it is a nano though)
[00:13] <mib> when i quireid java -version. it gives me java version "1.4.2-02"
[00:14] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: Where "this" is a link that shows you how it's done in gutsy. However since you're most likely using ibex you would want to check the repository if those packages have made it in.
[00:14] <jrib> !multijava | mib
[00:14] <deigel> earthmeLon: its in /etc/privoxy/config the line as it needs to be uncommented, has something that references socks4a so just search for socks4a find the line (in regards to forwarding) then restart it.
[00:14] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: if they have not all I can do is suggest you try it as it stands and hope for the best.
[00:14] <VanessaE> Ok, I'm on "this" page now reading.
[00:14] <Rusty0918> I'll try 8.04
[00:14] <VanessaE> I got confused, sorry
[00:14] <erUSUL> mib: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[00:14] <DavidCanarias> My msn isnt working properly. Can anyone help me please?
[00:14] <Krzysztof> Willis: Brb
[00:14] <erUSUL> mib: choose the one you want to use
[00:14] <VanessaE> ..and I'm using hardy actually.
[00:15] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: It's a nano and I'm quite sure that the 8G is a 3rd gen ipod.
[00:15] <VanessaE> ok
[00:15] <ircmac> Hi All, I have a wifi problem. My ubuntu machine can see the access point, sees it's ssid, wifi radar says it's connected but I can't ping the ap or any other computer on my net
[00:16] <KillerOrca> DavidCanarias: there is some aMSN program I believe, try a google search got it
[00:16] <BlueEagle> ircmac: Have a look in your /etc/resolve.conf file
[00:16] <BlueEagle> ircmac: The gateway should most likely be the ip of your access point.
[00:16] <Krzysztof> Ok. The only driver it says I have is the Wireless LAN card. How do I DOWNLOAD the latest drivers for nVidia and how do I change the resolution of my computer.
[00:17] <DavidCanarias> KillerOrca thanks I have downloaded the latest version but its not right.
[00:17] <|flats|> KillerOrca: Sugar Honey Ice Tea.  It works.  Isn't that a kick in the biscuits.  I've asked that question about 3 times in this channel the past 2 weeks with no luck.  Thank you very much for the help
[00:17] <earthmeLon> deigel: line 1161 of /etc/privoxy/config is forward-socks4a   /   <IP_ADDRESS>:9050 .
[00:17] <earthmeLon> Thanks for the help!!!
[00:17] <VanessaE> BlueEagle, ok, nothing shows up related to the ipod (or /dev/sdd) when I do a 'df' and kde doesn't react either
[00:18] <KleRoi> hello, i got a problem with 8.10... i've upgraded since a week or so but since today my X won't start.. after i start the pc and ubuntu's splash screen finishes loading i get to a black screen with a little horizontal white line blinking (top left)... and that's it.  any ideas? :(
[00:18] <KillerOrca> |flats|: well I hope you manage to get it to work with encryption, leaving the wireless network vulnerable isn't ideal
[00:18] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: Did you install the packages?
[00:18] <VanessaE> yes, I have.
[00:18] <KillerOrca> |flats|: you might also try different encryption settings: WEP, WPA, WPA-TKIP
[00:18] <hololight> Krzysztof: Which Nvidia card do u have?
[00:18] <VanessaE> I wonder if this thing needs to me reformatted.
[00:18] <VanessaE> (dmesg gives me buffer i/o errors and other oddities
[00:18] <Peddy1> Where do I copy libflashplugin.so to if I'm installing Flash Player manually?
[00:19] <jrib> Peddy1: ~/.mozilla/plugins/
[00:19] <chaqui1> what arguments can I use for a game so I can start it in a resolution?
[00:19] <Krzysztof> Holo: No idea. I'm completely oblivious to Linux and I have no idea what to do.
[00:19] <ircmac> BlueEagle: the resolv.conf has the ip's of the dns of my provider. My windows machine that is currently connected to the same ap has the gateway set as the openbsd firewall on my net & all is good with it
[00:19] <erUSUL> Peddy1: there is a how to in adobes page.. it is ~/.mozilla/plugins/ iirc
[00:19] <Peddy1> thanks jrib and erUSUL
[00:19] <gravemind1> jrib: looks like I have to manually downgrade the kernel
[00:20] <jrib> gravemind1: you can probably skip that one
[00:20] <DavidCanarias> Anybody experienced in using amsn?
[00:20] <jrib> gravemind1: and just boot the older kernel
[00:20] <KleRoi> mm i'll try again, i got a problem with 8.10... i've upgraded since a week or so but since today my X won't start.. after i start the pc and ubuntu's splash screen finishes loading i get to a black screen with a little horizontal white line blinking (top left)... and that's it.  any ideas? :(
[00:20] <VanessaE> usb 2-3: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 18
[00:20] <VanessaE> usb 2-3: device descriptor read/64, error -110
[00:20] <gravemind> jrib, the problem is the command quits when "E: Release 'intrepid' for 'linux-image-2.6.27-8-generic' was not found"
[00:20] <VanessaE> what the heck does this mean in English?
[00:20] <hololight> Krzysztof: You can go to System-> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager and search for nvidia then install one of thsoe drivers.... how old/ new is your video card?
[00:20] <Gershwin> sounds like a potential x.conf issue
[00:21] <Gershwin> look at the logs
[00:21] <KleRoi> Gershwin talking to me?
[00:21] <chaqui1> can anybody help me?
[00:21] <Uplink> i need help with my conky... i just downloaded conkey-vert config but its giving me issues
[00:21] <Gershwin> KleRoi, yes
[00:21] <BlueEagle> ircmac: Well it does appear to be either a gateway or a firewall issue.
[00:22] <BlueEagle> ircmac: Do you recieve ip configuration trough dhcp or is it manually set up? Which firewall configurator are you using?
[00:22] <sigma> hey guys. i'm looking at linux bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/281647 . I have a problem related to this and it seems the only solution available to me is to compile a new kernel with this patch. true/false?
[00:22] <eddVRS> hi, i get an error msg after doing a apt-get upgrade- "Errors were encountered while processing x,y and z" xyz being 3 packages (i guess). Any ideas to solve this?
[00:22] <hololight> chaqui1: game vid rez question?
[00:22] <VanessaE> BlueEagle,  http://www.pastebin.ca/1260938
[00:22] <Krzysztof>  Holo: There are SEVERAL nvidia downloads. What should I specifically look for?
[00:22] <VanessaE> what do you make of this?
[00:22] <jrib> eddVRS: give more details and pastebin exact output
[00:22] <KleRoi> Gershwin: i tried looking at logs, the only interesting thing i get is, after this blackscreen i try to load X (startx) but it just goes blackscreen, so when i go back to shell i get this lines: /usr/bin/x11/x: symbol lookup error : /usr/lib/xorg/modules/dribers/fglrx_drv.so : undefined symbol : firegl_querymcrange
[00:22] <ircmac> BlueEagle: the ap log never shows the ub machine but does show the windows box
[00:22] <VanessaE> I don't understand ipods as it is..  is the filesystem or partition table on it just corrupt?
[00:22] <eddVRS> jirb: OK give me a min
[00:23] <KleRoi> Gershwin: and also, xinit failed or something like that
[00:23] <hololight> Krzysztof: it depends on how old new ur card is.... i have a 8800 and i use nvidia-glx-new
[00:23] <sigma> or would i just be able to download a .deb package of an upstream version of the kernel..?
[00:23] <Krzysztof> Holo: Where can I check to see how old/new my card is?
[00:23] <hololight> Krzysztof: well, how old is your computer?
[00:24] <chaqui1> hololight: thanks for helping, I am playing oolite, its from ubuntu's repo's. the problem is I switched res from the ingame options menu and it crashed, now when I try to start it, it won't
[00:25] <Krzysztof> Wait a second....Oh my. Is an EvereX GBook suppose to have Ubuntu on it, like when you purchase it? Or is it suppose to have another OS?
[00:25] <sudobash> so I have a friend that has just crashed from updating from 8.04 to 8.10 and he is getting name@name$  and no commands are being recognized.... I dont actually have physical access to this laptop, but I can print something out on his printer through his Router.... I told him to type startx and iwconfig to see if I could get him on his wifi and then I could ssh to him
[00:25] <sigma> hey guys. i'm looking at linux bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/281647 . I have a problem related to this and it seems the only solution available to me is to compile a new kernel with this patch. true/false?
[00:25] <sudobash> but it is saying command not found
[00:25] <sudobash> name@name$
[00:25] <gravemind> jrib: alright looks like apt is not doing anything crazy, just downgrading stuff. here goes the /intrepid command
[00:25] <hololight> Krzysztof: you can type "lspci | grep nVidia" in a console... somewhere in the result should be the name and model of your card
[00:25] <chaqui1> I've tried reinstalling it, but it hasn't fixed it, I was thinking if I could use an argument to start it in its native resolution
[00:26] <BlueEagle> VanessaE: were there any errors when installing the two packages?
[00:26] <chaqui1> or if the game had a safe mod
[00:26] <VanessaE> no.
[00:26] <KleRoi> mmm Gershwin still there?
[00:26] <hololight> chaqui1: the fastest way for me to suggest fixing it (without knowing the speficis of that particular game) is to uninstall it (completely) and then reinstall
[00:26] <eddVRS> jrib: entire upgrade output here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74077/
[00:27] <hololight> you could also try typing "man game-start-command" in the console and see what it says about arguments
[00:28] <hololight> chaqui1: if you use the 'uninstall' method... use Synaptic and select the completely uninstall option when u find that program
[00:28] <jrib> eddVRS: pastebin /var/lib/dpkg/info/exim-daemon-light.*
[00:28] <sudobash> at first i thought it was a xorg issue but i think it is more serious like a kernel issue
[00:28] <Firstru7h> Hello could someone give me a hand with some video problems
[00:28] <jrib> eddVRS: pastebin /var/lib/dpkg/info/exim4-daemon-light.*
[00:28] <|seb|> how "downgrade" to open source video driver?
[00:28] <|seb|> I don't know how to change xorg.conf
[00:28] <Krzysztof> Can you download gOS, put it on a CD and load it onto a laptop?
[00:28] <sudobash> its an alienware laptop with nvidia graphics
[00:28] <KleRoi> ok... well i'll have another question for you guys, how can I format and make a clean install of ubuntu (i have the cd of intrepid) while saving some folders (music, movies)? i dont have any external hd.
[00:29] <gravemind> |seb|: use the hardware manager to deactivate the restricted driver I think
[00:29] <sudobash> not recognizing commands
[00:29] <Dr_willis_> Krzysztof  last i looked it was its own disrto and you could download the iso/isntall it.. Or you could enable the repos and install it on a ubuntu box.
[00:29] <Firstru7h> I tried to use the nvidia one so i could get desktop effects but when i rebooted i got the splash screen then a black screen and the login screen sound
[00:29] <Dr_willis_> Krzysztof  of course thelast i tried it.. it wasent really worth trying.. :) I would suggest using Ubuntu, and try gos inside virtualbox
[00:29] <|seb|> gravemind: thanks..is that the same as System-Preferences-Hardware Drivers?
[00:30] <gravemind> |seb|: yes, but it's under administration
[00:30] <sudobash> I guess the best idea is for him to get a 8.10 disc and let me ssh to him
[00:30] <Flare183> nintendork45: I'm still here
[00:30] <Sharad> How long would it usually take gparted to shrink a harddrive by 200 GB?
[00:30] <KleRoi> a question for you guys, how can I format and make a clean install of ubuntu (i have the cd of intrepid) while saving some folders (music, movies)? i dont have any external hd.
[00:31] <gravemind> KleRoi: Do you have any partitions or any free space on your hard drive?
[00:31] <Sharad> KleRoi: Shrink your existing drive, make another partition, move music and movies over to that partition
[00:31] <nintendork45> Flare183: ok
[00:31] <erUSUL> KleRoi: resizing to make room for a backup partition?
[00:31] <nintendork45> what is the command to open up the file manager?
[00:31] <jrib> nintendork45: nautilus
[00:31] <erUSUL> nintendork45: nautilus
[00:31] <Dr_willis_> KleRoi  not very easially... - like what Sharad  suggests.. done that befor.. it was a... hassle. :)
[00:31] <eddVRS> jrib: no such file or dir. I get as far as /var/lib/   in fact, I did a search for exim on my system, no sign...
[00:31] <VanessaE> BlueEagle, Ok, for whatever reason, it just started half-working.
[00:31] <Flare183> nintendork45: nautilus
[00:31] <Flare183> lol
[00:31] <Flare183> oops
[00:31] <Krzysztof> You see, my computer was purchased and it had gOS V2  I think. And it died and I could never recover because of a silly MemTest thing. And now I decided to put Ubuntu on. Should I just resort back to gOS, because Ubuntu is strectched with my laptop resolution.
[00:31] <Sharad> anyone got an answer to my question? it's been running for an hour now
[00:32] <|seb|> gravemind: there is only a choice to "Activate" it..not "Deactivate"
[00:32] <VanessaE> I plugged it in again, and an empty konqueror window popped up
[00:32] <jrib> eddVRS: i made a typo the first time.  Did you see my correction?
[00:32] <eddVRS> yes
[00:32] <hailong> yes
[00:32] <gravemind> |seb|: hmm -- you just want to use the nv driver, not nvidia?
[00:32] <VanessaE> then an error dialog came up right after it, complaining about a lack of a reply and a list of possible causes
[00:32] <Firstru7h> I tried to use the nvidia driver so i could get desktop effects but when i rebooted i got the splash screen then a black screen and the login screen sound and then when I hit the power button i got the exit screen
[00:32] <jrib> eddVRS: that's not possible :/  Does this return anything: ls /var/lib/dpkg/info/*exim*
[00:32] <Sharad> How long would it usually take gparted to shrink a harddrive by 200 GB? Anyone know?
[00:32] <KleRoi> gravemind Sharad erUSUL Dr_willis: well the problem is, that i cant get to X as i have a problem that i have highlighted before, my ubuntu just doesnt load X after the splash screen. also, yes i do have another partition where i have windows mounted, but i dont have much space in it. but i do have space on the partition where ubuntu is and where i would reinstall it.
[00:33] <Sharad> just run the live cd
[00:33] <VanessaE> BlueEagle, if I hit OK and click the reload button, "An unknown error occurred" pops up.
[00:33] <hailong> 还不知道怎么用这个东东，
[00:33] <Sharad> and shrink using partition editor
[00:33] <Sharad> "gparted"
[00:33] <gravemind> KleRoi: you can boot up from the cd, adjust your partitions so windows has more space, and then proceed
[00:33] <erUSUL> KleRoi: do it from a livecd
[00:33] <erUSUL> !cn | hailong
[00:33] <Sharad> gravemind: do u know anything for my question?
[00:34] <earthmeLon> Any way I can see ads using Torbutton?
[00:34] <gravemind> sharad: I can try -- ask
[00:34] <Sharad> How long would it usually take gparted to shrink a harddrive by 200 GB?
[00:34] <Sharad> it's been running for over an hour now
[00:34] <eddVRS> jrib, found it... /var/lib/exim4 contains one file called config.autogenerated
[00:34] <Sharad> i dont know what to do
[00:34] <KleRoi> mm ok, but after i do that and i have more space in the windows partition, can i transfer files from one partition to another? and on top of that, how do i do it from the terminal as i dont have any help from X?
[00:34] <Sharad> whether to stop it or let it continue
[00:34] <jrib> eddVRS: that's not what I need
[00:35] <erUSUL> Sharad: i suppose that it depends on the amount of data it has to move around
[00:35] <gravemind> Sharad: Its normal for it to take a long time, especially if it has lots of stuff. I don't think you should interrupt it though -- that would probably be bad
[00:35] <chaqui1> !postbin
[00:35] <sudobash> maybe its a initrd problem?
[00:36] <gravemind> chaqui1: http://paste.ubuntu.com
[00:36] <earthmeLon>  !pastebin
[00:36] <erUSUL> Sharad: but as gravemind have said interrupting it would be a very bad idea
[00:36] <earthmeLon> lol not postbin :P
[00:36] <Sharad> ah okay any idea how long i should keep it running before I agree its messed up?
[00:36] <gravemind> erUSUL: Sharad: if the program isn't frozen, (and I wouldn't mess with it too much) I'd give it as much time as it takes.
[00:37] <KleRoi> "mm ok, but after i do that and i have more space in the windows partition, can i transfer files from one partition to another? and on top of that, how do i do it from the terminal as i dont have any help from X?" <-- i mean, can i just copy files from the ubuntu partition to the windows partition? o_O i thought i couldn't do that.
[00:37] <Sharad> ah alright thanks a lot gravemind i'll keep that in mind
[00:37] <gravemind> erUSUL: Sharad: if it's still doing that tomorrow then you have a problem :)
[00:37] <Sharad> i guess i'll leave it running for the night
[00:37] <Sharad> yup
[00:37] <Sharad> just deprived of the computer in my room..hate using this comp :(
[00:37] <dakira> hi.. i have a little problem and hope to find some help here (let it be said I'm a seasoned linux user): When you have a brandnew harddisk and partition it with gparted (setting the disks mode to MS-DOS by default) Windows-CDs won't be able to boot anymore.. the only way to get them to boot is to either disconnect the HDD from the controller or to clean out the whole HDD with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda. After doing that I can install Windows
[00:37] <dakira> (creating a parition for it) and then install Ubuntu. My problem now is that Windows crashed and Ubuntu checked the HDD with fsck modifying the MBR in a way that AGAIN no Windows-CD would boot anymore.. any clues?
[00:37] <andrew__> dail up?
[00:37] <sudobash> if it is getting to name@name$ then it should be an init problem correct or could it still be a kernel issue>
[00:37] <sudobash> ?
[00:38] <andrew__> why leave the pc on all night?
[00:38] <gravemind> KleRoi: with both partitions mounted you can drag and drop (from the live cd)
[00:38] <flats> Now that I am running 8.10 intrepid.  Should I remove all sources that point to hardy and earlier editions?
[00:38] <jeffreyf1> Command to reset repository sources ?
[00:38] <erUSUL> flats: yes
[00:38] <KleRoi> gravemind oooh okay thanks
[00:38] <sudobash> maybe i need #linux
[00:39] <fernando> ola
[00:39] <fernando> #ubuntu-pt
[00:40] <gravemind> jrib: alright I ran the first command (/intrepid). Should I do -secure and -updates now, or should I remove the proposed repository and update?
[00:40] <Krzysztof> Thanks for your help everyone.
[00:40] <blakbeardscrotum> Ø_Ø
[00:40] <DavidCanarias> Help burning a DVD. I have two separate files and want to burn to one DVD. It doesnt seem to work whatever I do???
[00:40] <Guest85449> #ubuntu-pt
[00:40] <jrib> gravemind: remove -proposed from sources.list, run apt-get update, then run apt-get upgrade
[00:40] <earthmeLon> Both Torbutton and Foxyproxy are not displaying ads.  I know this sounds weird, but I want to see ads :P  Does anybody know whats up with this?
[00:40] <Guest85449> ola
[00:40] <Guest85449> boa noite
[00:40] <jrib> !pt | Guest85449
[00:41] <gravemind> jrib: alright
[00:41] <KleRoi> gravemind: so... last question as I want to be sure of what im gonna do in a few minutes. i put the live cd, adjust the partitions so that i have enough space in one partition to copy the files i wanna save, i reboot and from the live cd i format and reinstall ubuntu?
[00:42] <eddVRS> jrib: there's a choice of files here, which do you need? http://paste.ubuntu.com/74081/
[00:42] <jrib> eddVRS: postinst
[00:42] <jeffreyf1> Command to reset repository sources ?
[00:42] <dakira> no ideas on my problem? anyone?
[00:42] <nintendork45> im trying to install /home on a separate partition
[00:42] <jrib> jeffreyf1: system -> administration -> software sources
[00:42] <jrib> dakira: best to just ask the channel your question.  If someone knows the answer, they will try to answer you
[00:43] <roy_hobbs> Hey guys.  Initiate suspend from the command line?
[00:43] <jeffreyf1> jrib.......command line if possible.  I am telnet'd into another system
[00:43] <gravemind> KleRoi: gravemind: boot from the live cd, adjust the partitions, transfer the files, then install ubuntu :)
[00:43] <nintendork45> it booted but when i looged in it said that there isnt a something file (ends in a btd i think) and that the users home isnt chmodded right
[00:43] <|seb|> gravemind: actually fglrx (ATI) i suspect is causing X to freeze...so i'm hoping open source driver will avoid that
[00:43] <dakira> jrib: I did ask it.. I just didn't want to repost it.. isn't that considered spamming?
[00:43] <jrib> jeffreyf1: there's no command, just fix it by hand
[00:43] <jrib> dakira: no
[00:43] <eddVRS> jrib: Thanks, looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74082/
[00:43] <nintendork45> any help?
[00:43] <jrib> !helpme | dakira, in fact
[00:43] <jeffreyf1> jrib: thanks
[00:44] <jrib> jeffreyf1: i can pastebin mine if you need it
[00:44] <gravemind> |seb| ah ok. I've only done it with nvidia cards, but I assume you just want to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, find where it says "driver: xxxxxxx" and replace it with the name of the open source driver
[00:44] <|seb|> gravemind: the reason i just now took so long to respond is because my damn X froze! :)
[00:45] <nintendork45> im trying to install /home on another partition and when i log in it says some file isnt found so it cant save user settings and home isnt chmodded right
[00:45] <jeffreyf1> jrib: I can copy mine...mine is correct, the remote is messed.
[00:45] <gravemind> |seb| ooh, unfortunate. Do you know about ctrl-alt-backspace?
[00:45] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:45] <|seb|> gravemind: no
[00:45] <raven> i reset router, laptop... no good
[00:46] <gravemind> |seb|: use that to restart X if it freezes
[00:46] <dakira> jrib: okay.. since you're here I'll ask my question again ;)
[00:46] <djh__> heya, can anyone help with an Ldap problem?
[00:46] <mab1376> hello can someone help me mounting a drive?
[00:46] <DavidCanarias> Burning A  DVD anyone???? I have two files I can burn to DVD no problem, but when I try to put the two on the same DVD as each is only 1,3GB theres no way it will work? Ideas
[00:46] <dakira> hi.. i have a little problem and hope to find some help here (let it be said I'm a seasoned linux user): When you have a brandnew harddisk and partition it with gparted (setting the disks mode to MS-DOS by default) Windows-CDs won't be able to boot anymore.. the only way to get them to boot is to either disconnect the HDD from the controller or to clean out the whole HDD with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda.

[00:46] <raven> hello i've been asking for help since this morning, me firsst?
[00:46] <raven> :p
[00:46] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:46] <mab1376> all i get is mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newline, G_DIR_SEPERATOR (usually /)
[00:46] <gravemind> |seb|: you can also access a terminal at any time by holding ctrl, alt, and any key F1 through F6
[00:47] <nintendork45> im trying to install /home on another partition and when i log in it says some file isnt found so it cant save user settings and home isnt chmodded right
[00:47] <stage3> DavidCanarias, what application did you use?
[00:47] <nintendork45> im trying to install /home on another partition and when i log in it says some file isnt found so it cant save user settings and /home isnt chmodded right
[00:47] <b4|hraban> Hi, I am in a relatively weird situation: I am trying to isntall (x)ubuntu on a small laptop without CD-ROM drive and without HDD, and I only have one USB Flash key available
[00:47] <|seb|> gravemind: yes...it appears the freezing knocks out the keyboard so can't get to those terminals
[00:47] <jrib> jeffreyf1: I'm not sure what /etc/apt/sources.list.default is.  Might want to check that.  here it has -backports enabled so I'm not sure if that's actually the default one
[00:48] <|seb|> gravemind: sometimes mouse still works...sometimes no
[00:48] <b4|hraban> I want to try and make a 400MB / partition and a 3.2 GB /usr partition, but the installer is giving me hell
[00:48] <Flare183> !repeat | nintendork45 (sorry I must do this)
[00:48] <sigma> im having trouble with samba. i am unable to access the printers or shared files on my other windows XP machines, although i can see them. for example nautlius lets me go to "FAMILYCOMP" but then shows a blank folder; same with the print configuration app. what should i do?
[00:48] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:48] <gravemind> |seb|: wow those must be some serious xorg problems then
[00:48] <b4|hraban> (if I do that right away there is not enough room in /var to store the temporary packages or something...)
[00:48] <nintendork45> Flare183: dumbass i was correcting a sentence
[00:48] <voraistos> Does the ubuntu install cd allow the user to delete any folder on / except the home folder? moving the home folder to a separate partition is not a solution.
[00:48] <HazardX> can anyone help getting a RTL-8185 wifi card to work? (machine fails to boot to X with the card in the machine)
[00:48] <gravemind> |seb|: might be another problem entirely, idk
[00:49] <Flare183> nintendork45: dude
[00:49] <luddite1> hi i can ping from my ubuntu wifi laptop to my winXP machine but not the otherway around - i get a 100% loss. They are on sme subnet (ubuntu-<IP_ADDRESS> /xp - <IP_ADDRESS>)
[00:49] <djh__> im trying to setup ldap but I am unable to login with the details I set in slapd.conf, anyone have any experience with Ldap, could they open a private chat with me or type in here?
[00:49] <Flannel> b4|hraban: You'll need more room than 400M in /
[00:49] <b4|hraban> I will?
[00:49] <nintendork45> Flare183 i was correcting myself XD
[00:49] <Dr_willis_> sigma  ive noticed that ive had to type in the  share names under the gnome file manager to get to them. Not sure why gnome is not showing all the shares..
[00:49] <Flare183> nintendork45: ok
[00:49] <raven> luddite1, u need a SMB name for ur laptop or the win box wont see it
[00:49] <jrib> voraistos: no, not afaik
[00:49] <Flare183> nintendork45: Sorry I didn't see that
[00:49] <b4|hraban> How much, then, approximately?
[00:49] <raven> luddite1, try pingin by ip
[00:49] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:49] <b4|hraban> I do not have a lot to spare...
[00:49] <Flannel> b4|hraban: yes, because / will contain everything that isn't /usr, /home, /var /etc, etc
[00:49] <luddite1> raven - i have - hostname also
[00:50] <Flannel> b4|hraban: Why do you want to make two partitions anyway?
[00:50] <b4|hraban> right, how much can that be...? I thought 400MB would be plenty
[00:50] <voraistos> jrib: that's lame win95 could do this :D
[00:50] <pord> need some help. My firefox has no window border but all my other apps do. I am running compiz but all the other windows have borders
[00:50] <jrib> voraistos: but does it have a shiny cube?  I think not. :)
[00:50] <raven> luddite1, try pingin by ip
[00:50] <raven> oops
[00:50] <luddite1> rave - i can also share files both ways and can see shares on each pc by the other
[00:50] <nintendork45> im trying to install /home on another partition and when i log in it says some file isnt found so it cant save user settings and /home isnt chmodded right
[00:50] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:50] <Flannel> b4|hraban: Why do you want a separate /usr?
[00:50] <luddite1> raven - IP has not fun either
[00:50] <voraistos> jrib: i hate shiny cubes and wobbly things
[00:51] <soho> hey guys my firefox hung up on me, it wont load now, what do i do?
[00:51] <b4|hraban> Flannel, well, because I wouldn't want the entire / to be messed up if there is an IO error in /usr (actually, this is something that I read in a FreeBSD tutorial, it made sense to me... but it might not apply here, who knows)
[00:51] <djh__> im trying to setup ldap but I am unable to login with the details I set in slapd.conf, anyone have any experience with Ldap, could they open a private chat with me or type in here?
[00:51] <raven> luddite1, no idea mate, but why bother if they can access each other
[00:51] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:51] <soho> it gives me an error "firefox is already running, quit and try again"
[00:51] <attidack> type compiz --replace in terminal
[00:51] <sigma> Dr_willis that's all well and good, but how can i use a printer, then?
[00:51] <attidack> restart
[00:51] <stage3> soho in a console do: pkill firefox
[00:51] <soho> ok
[00:51] <luddite1> raven - because the speed of file transfers is stupidly slow ~ 1MB/sec
[00:51] <attidack> my numpad is not working
[00:51] <raven> luddite1, r u on wifi?
[00:51] <Dr_willis_> sigma  not sure on that. type in the shared name of the printer in the gnome printer config tool? I recall that always did see my printers..
[00:52] <Flannel> b4|hraban: erm.  I think you'll have the best experience with just a  single /
[00:52] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:52] <soho> haha thanks stage3 it worked
[00:52] <b4|hraban> Flannel, hmm... guess you're right. :/
[00:52] <Flannel> b4|hraban: You can always change it later, of course.
[00:52] <soho> i tried kill-9 firefox, then i tried firefox restart
[00:52] <soho> nothing worked
[00:52] <voraistos> killall firefox
[00:52] <attidack> how do i fix my numpad it just works as like a forward back
[00:52] <eddVRS> jrib: don't suppose youve been able tosee my reponse: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74082/
[00:52] <luddite1> raven - ubuntu is wifi / xp is wired. I have tried both wired and it is about 1.1MB/sec
[00:52] <soho> but pkill works, what is "pkill"? process kill?
[00:52] <raven> luddite1, u shud be getting 12MB/s or so if both are wired
[00:52] <b4|hraban> Flannel, hey, now that you mention it... I could just plug the USB key in a different machine and repartition it there...
[00:53] <jrib> eddVRS: I missed it.  Thanks
[00:53] <raven> luddite1, and somewhere around 6MB/s on wifi (with perfect conn)
[00:53] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:53] <djh__> im trying to setup ldap but I am unable to login with the details I set in slapd.conf, anyone have any experience with Ldap, could they open a private chat with me or type in here?
[00:53] <Dr_willis_> sigma  i also have the habbit of giving the linux users  the same name and password as the user on the windows machines.. just eems to make things work smoother.
[00:53] <luddite1> raven i know - thats why its so weird
[00:53] <raven> --- I have been waiting for help since 9:00 this morning, please @!#%@% HELP ME! ---
[00:53] <raven> my wifi was working last night and since this morning keeps bringing the authentication box up after a few seconds of tryin to connect, and repeating that whenever i hit connect
[00:53] <pord> need some help. My firefox has no window border but all my other apps do. I am running compiz but all the other windows have borders
[00:53] <Flannel> attidack: push numlock
[00:54] <jrib> eddVRS: set EX4DEBUG and try again
[00:54] <gravemind> alright jrib all upgrade
[00:54] <gravemind> jrib: all upgraded
[00:54] <jrib> gravemind: ok, make sure you have a kernel installed :)
[00:54] <soho> stag3 what is pkill function?
[00:54] <luddite1> raven - did you recently update? i had that problem last night after updating
[00:54] <raven> i dont think i did
[00:54] <eddVRS> jrib: sorry, how would I do that?
[00:54] <raven> how did u fix urs tho
[00:54] <luddite1> raven: dont think?
[00:54] <raven> cuz i need wifi

[00:55] <voraistos> raven: your drivers might be screwed and not support the wireless mode and or encryption that your router requires. you should probably try with a basic wpa2 encryption on 802.11b
[00:55] <luddite1> raven - i raven: whats in sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces

[00:58] <soho> is the process id different for each application like firefox or irc?
[00:58] <eddVRS> jrib: I get the same apt output...
[00:58] <raven> voraistos, i have used this password and auth method with ubuntu for years
[00:58] <soho> are they both process if 190?
[00:58] <gravemind> jrib: alright, 2.6.27-7-generic

[00:58] <voraistos> raven hmmm so what happened between "when it wa working for years" and "its not working anymore" ?
[00:58] <stage3> soho the process id is assigned dynamically

[00:59] <raven> voraistos, i went to bed, and woke up, and turned on the laptop
[00:59] <soho> oh

[00:59] <devlin_>  /server irc.redwolfs.net
[00:59] <devlin_> doh... sowwy
[00:59] <voraistos> raven: its an odd problem. I suspect it is a pb with the router (it was for me)
[00:59] <gravemind> jrib: is reading xorg.conf the best way to tell?
[01:00] <jrib> gravemind: /var/log/Xorg.0.log will tell you for sure
[01:00] <Andrew12> http://failblog.org/2008/05/08/parental-fail/
[01:00] <Andrew12> oops wrong room
[01:00] <raven> voraistos, my router scks, but i hav no issue with this wifi on my ipod, so it has to be the laptop
[01:00] <attidack> how do i get my numpad to work
[01:00] <voraistos> raven: especially if you have an intel. usually these work quite well.
[01:00]  * jrib releases his !ot finger

[01:00] <daave> Hello, what should I do if I forget my own passwd and only know the root's password?
[01:01] <sudobash> will ndiswrapper quit working with an 8.04 to 8.10 update?
[01:01] <King_Bob> can anyone tell me what the program is called for the seamless VMbox ?
[01:01] <jrib> daave: are you using ubuntu?
[01:01] <voraistos> raven: what do you use for auth? the standard gnome thing ?
[01:01] <raven> daave, log in as root then do passwd <username> <newpass>
[01:01] <raven> voraistos, yes, i pathetically attempted doing it manually too
[01:01] <gravemind> jrib: (==) Matched nv for the autoconfigured driver
[01:01] <daave> raven: thanks
[01:01] <voraistos> raven: try installing/using wicd
[01:01] <jrib> gravemind: k.  Well you can purge nvidia-glx-177 and then try hardware drivers if you want
[01:01] <attidack> sorry j i miss what you told me t do
[01:02] <gravemind> jrib: here goes
[01:02] <raven> voraistos, couldnt find package wicd?
[01:02] <AutoMatriX> hi folks, I've got a litte script in which the command 'spawn' is used ... wher can I get that or how do I install 'spawn' ?
[01:02] <voraistos> hmmm let me look around
[01:02] <eddVRS> jrib: OK, I got this http://paste.ubuntu.com/74089/
[01:02] <Dr_willis_> !find spawn
[01:02] <gravemind> jrib: also -- do you want a video screenshot of what hardware drivers failing silently is like
[01:02] <abadr> My python program is having a Segmentation fault. I want to get a core dump. I tried doing "ulimit -c unlimited" and now it still says it segfaulted; it doesn't say dumping core; it creates a core file, but that file is empty. How do I get a real core dump?
[01:02] <stage3> soho or: pgrep -l firefox
[01:02] <jrib> gravemind: sure
[01:03] <raven> voraistos, dont worry i found it, u hav to add a repo
[01:03] <voraistos> yep :)
[01:03] <voraistos> it used to be in the universe repo before.

[01:03] <raven> daave, reset and log in in single user mode, google how to if u dunno how to, i dont remember

[01:04] <Tyrath> I'm trying to install KOTOR II on Ubuntu but the install stops when it gets to installing Sound.bif specifying that the error is that it is Not Ready. This happens when I try to reinstall and even after boot in Wine. (a) could anyone help me with this? (b) is there a log I could find and pastebin that would give you a better indication of what is going wrong? (c) should I be going to #wine to report this or is this a ubuntu problem?
[01:05] <Tyrath> *boot = reboot
[01:05] <eddVRS> jrib, are those three packages standard to the OS, or could I have added them whilst messing around?
[01:05] <voraistos> daave: if you only know the root's password, then it means you can login as root
[01:05] <jrib> eddVRS: here you go: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/exim4/+bug/261026
[01:05] <jrib> eddVRS: they aren't default packages on the desktop
[01:06] <jj_galvez> can anyone help me with screenlets? everytime I put the weather one on my desktop two of them pop up
[01:06] <Flannel> Tyrath: Have you tried #winehq?  (thats the wine channel)  It's likely a wine issue (bug, configuration, whatever), and not ubuntu specific (although you're welcome to ask here)
[01:06] <Flannel> daave: Why did you set a root password to begin with?
[01:06] <Flannel> daave, voraistos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LostPassword
[01:07] <voraistos> daave: however gdm wont let you login as root, so you need to do it from the vt
[01:07] <daave> raven: I know, passwd <myname> and then it will give prompt.
[01:07] <Tyrath> Flannel: see the thing is that I'm scared that ubuntu's not reading the disk properly but I could be wrong given it seems to read DVDs properly. even though it does oddly seem to lag at the start when playing DVDs, and the install does stuff up close to the start.
[01:07] <daave> thanks all.
[01:07] <moxilo_> update libxml2 now XD
[01:08] <Flannel> Tyrath: I'm not terribly proficient in wine, however there may be something you have to do/configure for wine to do its thing.
[01:08] <wwpiexec> ok.. i hope there is a fix for this.. I have two sessions, one on tty7 and another on tty9.. I use chvt to switch from one to another.. however... if I am playing music on one.. and switch to another the sound stops.. I think the system disables audio on the other session while gives this session the audio device to use.. can I have it so it doesn't do that?!
[01:08] <daave> exit
[01:09] <Wicked> !lives
[01:09] <Wicked> hmm....i wonder why lives is not in repos
[01:09] <voraistos> raven: any luck with wicd ?
[01:09] <eddVRS> jrib:I'll have a nosey through this bug report and play around. Thanks for your time/help, I appreciate it
[01:09] <Wicked> http://lives.sourceforge.net/
[01:09] <Tyrath> Flannel: (a) but you would definately suggest it's a wine problem. (b) there wouldn't be a log I could find that would give us more indication as to where the problem is?
[01:09] <Wicked> there are debs for it on getdeb
[01:09] <jrib> eddVRS: np.  Note the workaround in the comments
[01:09] <Wicked> !getdeb

[01:11] <Dr_willis_> Tyrath often when installing games with wine from cd/dvds i copy ALL the files from all the install disks to a single directory.. then use wine and run the intaller from that directory.. that way no disks are needed/uses/ejected/inserted.. its worked good for me for a great many games.
[01:12] <wwpiexec> !info lives
[01:12] <attidack> any tips for making the audio louder I have a 780I motherboard and every thing is kind of quiet
[01:12] <Flannel> Tyrath: Nah, I've got no idea what the problem might be.  But the #winehq people may, and theyd know what logs to look at, etc.
[01:12] <[-> im having a wine/videocar related issue
[01:12] <BlueEagle> GAZ082: How "random" are these event? Are you typing at the time? Running any apps? or does it just behave like a mac?
[01:13] <gravemind> jrib: how should I send you the file (3.2 MB) video
[01:13] <[-> i cant seem to find either drivers or proper configuration procedures for my card
[01:13] <spree> Hi, ever since I removed pulseaudio from my installation, I can't log into Gnome without using Safe Mode. This is the error I get http://pastebin.com/m1b2f4f65 I don't want pulseaudio, it keeps me from using audacity and other applications. I use ALSA.
[01:13] <spree> How do I fix the problem?
[01:13] <P_> is there a log somewhere of what is happening when you are starting the live cd ? It goes to a bash for a reason
[01:14] <Tyrath> Dr_willis_: when I try that they won't copy over :/
[01:14] <GAZ082> Hah! down again. I just opened Google Earth and happened
[01:14] <GAZ082> went to the login screen
[01:14] <GAZ082> mmm, all is white now
[01:15] <BlueEagle> spree: Unable to create /home/jizzy/.dbus/session-bus  so check that .dbus exists and that you've got write-permissions for that directory. Also check the permissions of .dbus/session-bus
[01:15] <P_> has someone had some problems with 8.1 when booting the cd and choosing to install on a lappy ?
[01:15] <soho> spree what is jizzy?
[01:15] <spree> BlueEagle, .dubs does not exist
[01:15] <BlueEagle> spree: .dbus, not .dubs
[01:15] <spree> soho, that;s for #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:16] <soho> oh ok
[01:16] <soho> thanks
[01:16] <Tyrath> brb
[01:16] <spree> bluedusk, aha, permission denied
[01:16] <BlueEagle> P_: I guess one or two people have experienced some difficulties. Anything in particular that's occuring on your system?
[01:17] <BlueEagle> spree: sudo chown -R jizzy:jizzy .dbus
[01:17] <GAZ082> BlueEagle:  hah! managed to replicate my problem. I get the logon screen when trying to use Google Earth. The splash screen shows for some seconds and then *bam!*
[01:17] <P_> BlueEagle, it's going straight to the command prompt after the laoding screen, this is when running the live cd and i have no idea what i can do from there
[01:17] <[-> can someone help me with a couple videocard questions?
[01:17] <BlueEagle> GAZ082: Then don't use google earth. ;)
[01:17] <BlueEagle> GAZ082: alternately look in your /var/log/ directory for any clues.
[01:17] <Dr_willis_> or run google earth from a terminal?
[01:17] <P_> i remember i had some problems with previous versions because of my lappy acpi and had to patch the kernel, but always been able to install them
[01:18] <GAZ082> BlueEagle:  but i had this problem at RANDOM since a couple of days ago, in fact, since installing Firefox 3.0.4 (unofficial version)
[01:18] <jrib> gravemind: hrm.  Okay, well let's see what happens if you enable it in your xorg.conf
[01:18] <GAZ082> i'll check the log
[01:18] <BlueEagle> GAZ082: Well then don't go installing unofficial stuff. That's more likely to be a crulpit.
[01:18] <itachi> hello, can you help me?
[01:18] <gravemind> jrib: alright. Is it alright then that the rest of xorg.conf is generic?

[01:19] <P_> yes
[01:19] <Killer--Tux> need help with ftp
[01:19] <[-> does anyone know of a good system gonfiguration utility or a benchmarking utility i can apt-get install?
[01:19] <itachi> hello, can you help me?
[01:20] <P_> itachi, ask a question and if someone knows i guess he will answer :)
[01:20] <treefolk> !ask | itachi
[01:20] <BlueEagle> P_: What does the log say about starting X?
[01:20] <Killer--Tux> i have setup my own ftp but i can access on any computer
[01:20] <spree> BlueEagle, see you in a minute
[01:20] <P_> BlueEagle, i doesn't even go that far
[01:20] <BlueEagle> P_: I see. Would you mind telling me where it stops?
[01:20] <jrib> gravemind: can you check if 'lsmod | grep nvidia' has nvidia loaded?
[01:20] <gravemind> jrib: heh alright then. If we really have the same card mine should work. Or does the type of monitor make a difference? I'm not so sure that autodetect is getting the right specs for my monitor
[01:20] <itachi> ok i have a problem with my nvidia
[01:21] <clayX> in dolphin, i want to share a folder, and it says 'you must be authorized to share folders'
[01:21] <P_> BlueEagle, i'm downloading the alternate and i ll try that, i can tell you the content of the log next time i try but if i remember correctly it was something about bios pnp
[01:21] <P_> which i disabled using the boot option, and doesn't help
[01:21] <BlueEagle> P_: ie. do you have a command prompt where you can type commands? Does the screen blink at all before you are given the prompt? Have you tried pressing F1 during boot to see the actual messages? Do they give you any sensible errors?
[01:21] <jrib> gravemind: it might just give you the wrong resolutions, but the driver should still load
[01:21] <GAZ082> BlueEagle: i uninstalled the unofficial version and now using the official .4
[01:22] <Killer--Tux> help with ftp
[01:22] <BlueEagle> GAZ082: ...and is that working for you?

[01:24] <P_> BlueEagle, yeah i just said the problems i had with my previous version, but it was installing fine
[01:24] <GodfatherofEire> Could somebody help me. I'm having a /slight/ problem at the moment. The only reason my p key is working is because I've copied it from another window, so I could really use a hand here. I kind of screwed upwith the keybinding

[01:27] <musikgoat|main> binarymutant: i think your referring to escaping,  like \n is escape n
[01:27] <gravemind1> jrib: right, it returns nothing
[01:27] <KNY> Killer--Tux, to allow vsftpd local logins, there is a setting you have to change
[01:27] <kusanagi_> I cannot send to trash files out of home (say /media/disk) I notice files belong to root... but I think ive been able to send to trash without asking me for permanent deletion before... Anybody knows whats happening?
[01:27] <jrib> gravemind1: what does 'sudo modprobe nvidia' do?
[01:27] <binarymutant> musikgoat|main, thanks I couldn't think of the word :)
[01:28] <Killer--Tux> KNY vsftpd.conf
[01:28] <musikgoat|main> suggestions for this sound problem?  i cant get sound running on my 8.10 x64 ubuntu, its worked fine until today.  tested through hardware tester and through sound options, and tested alsa, oss, edm, and pulseaudio.  here is lshw -C sound: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74092/
[01:28] <KNY> Killer--Tux, in /etc/vsftpd.conf, set local_enable=YES
[01:28] <GodfatherofEire> Could somebody help me out here? I'm going to be in some serious trouble If I cant fix this problem.
[01:28] <KNY> and then restart your server
[01:28] <gravemind1> jrib: FATAL: module nvidia not found
[01:28] <Killer--Tux> KNY it says yes
[01:28] <Killer--Tux> KNY but how do i create users ?!?
[01:28] <KNY> Killer--Tux, you've tried restarting the daemon?
[01:28] <KNY> Killer--Tux, it's users on the FTP server
[01:29] <jrib> gravemind1: alright, this will give me an excuse to learn about dkms I guess.  What does 'dkms status' return?
[01:29] <LjL> GodfatherofEire, you said you "screwed up with the keybinding", so perhaps you can tell us what exactly you did
[01:29] <KNY> if you have vsftpd running on your desktop, users on your desktop can log in
[01:29] <BlueEagle> spree: Which packages related to pulseaudio did you remove?
[01:29] <LjL> bleah
[01:29] <LjL> GodfatherofEire, you said you "screwed up with the keybinding", so perhaps you can tell us what exactly you did
[01:29] <Killer--Tux> KNY no i have not tried that how do i do it ?!?
[01:29] <gravemind1> jrib: nvidia, 177.80: added
[01:30] <KNY> Killer--Tux, sudo /etc/init.d/vsftpd restart
[01:30] <LjL> GodfatherofEire: (although i had to scroll up almost to the end of my buffer to read that, since all you said after that was asking for help without even further clarifying your question...)
[01:30] <Michael___> Is there a way I could have a linux cd that would load my PCMCIA drivers, then run ubuntu from a PCMCIA USB 2 card?
[01:30] <spree> BlueEagle, all of pulse*
[01:30] <Killer--Tux> KNY  o restart the whole thing that i have done
[01:30] <gravemind1> jrib: dkms builds modules for your computer each time you boot up the computer? Or does it once and saves it
[01:30] <KNY> Killer--Tux, are you trying to connect from a windows machine? linux machine?
[01:30] <jrib> gravemind1: my output http://paste.ubuntu.com/74099/ .  No idea
[01:30] <GodfatherofEire> Ah, well, LjL my lowercase p doesnt work, I have to paste it from other peoples conversations
[01:31] <LjL> gavagai: if it built them every time you *booted*, booting would take a... very... long time
[01:31] <Killer--Tux> KNY trying to see if i can access it in windows
[01:31] <LjL> GodfatherofEire: yes, that i understood. but what did you do with your keybindings?
[01:32] <BlueEagle> spree: try this: sudo apt-get --simulate autoremove
[01:32] <BlueEagle> spree: Does that want to remove any additional packages?
[01:32] <leikh> I'm using system-config-printer 1.0.5. How do I set up my LBP-1760 with port 515 and passthru? (It went smooth with Ubuntu 8.04, but now, with 8.10, I'm having a struggle...)
[01:32] <Chiggins> hello room
[01:32] <gravemind1> jrib: is there any way to get debugging info from the hardware manager? That might help find out what's going on. Otherwise, what should I try next
[01:32] <jrib> gravemind1: let's see if we can remove the right package so dkms doesn't know anything about nvidia at all.  See if removing nvidia-glx-177 does that
[01:32] <GodfatherofEire> LjL: I used xbindkeys-config, and I'm not quite sure what I did, but starting with a blank slate would be just fine
[01:32] <spree> BlueEagle, no.
[01:32] <gravemind1> jrib: ok
[01:32] <kusanagi_> I cannot send to trash files out of home (say /media/disk) I notice files belong to root... but I think ive been able to send to trash without asking me for permanent deletion before... Anybody knows whats happening?
[01:32] <jrib> gravemind1: s/remove/purge
[01:33] <Michael___> Is there a premade linux bootloader that can be burned to a cd that could load drivers for a laptop PCMCIA card slot, then have a way to boot from a device from said card slot?
[01:33] <BlueEagle> spree: It's been a long time since I've used gnome, but is there any settings that allow you to choose shound-server?
[01:33] <Chiggins> im looking to setup a ftp server on my ubuntu server so only accounts i add can upload to locations that i pick
[01:33] <gravemind1> jrib: alright, done, but the dkms status is the same as before
[01:33] <Naaatan> hey.. I have some extra function keys on my keyboard that Ubuntu doesn't use.. does anyone know how I can assign them ?
[01:33] <gravemind1> jrib: does that mean I have to restart?
[01:33] <bazhang> Michael___, not as you envision no. you could !remaster a cd though
[01:34] <jrib> gravemind1: see what this returns: aptitude search '~i~nnvidia'
[01:34] <spree> BlueEagle, yes, and I explicitly have ALSA picked instead of Pulse for all devices
[01:34] <tarelerulz> is there any program for tagging movies ?
[01:34] <LjL> GodfatherofEire: ok, knowing you used xbindkeys will definitely help identifying the problem. did you add anything to your ~/.bashrc file?
[01:34] <Killer--Tux> help with ftp
[01:34] <GodfatherofEire> LjL Nope
[01:34] <gravemind1> jrib: nvidia with one n?
[01:34] <jrib> gravemind1: nope ~n is to match name
[01:35] <gravemind1> jrib: ah ok
[01:35] <DefunctProcess> anyone using the new nvidia 180 beta drivers?
[01:35] <BlueEagle> spree: Then I do not know.
[01:35] <Michael___> Any idea where I should start?
[01:36] <gravemind1> jrib: modaliases for all four numbered drivers, 177 kernel source, nvidia common, nvidia settings
[01:36] <wwpiexec> hi.. I have a huge directory.. the file I want are given by "ls -1|grep "\-rwx""  i would like to chmod specifically those files.. how do I do it?
[01:36] <LjL> GodfatherofEire: have you rebooted or restarted X since running xbindkeys?
[01:36] <musikgoat|main> suggestions for this sound problem?  i cant get sound running on my 8.10 x64 ubuntu, its worked fine until today. tested through hardware tester and through sound options, and tested alsa, oss, edm, and pulseaudio.  here is lshw -C sound: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74092/
[01:36] <GodfatherofEire> LjL, no
[01:36] <spree> I am having a problem with logging into Gnome. I have to enter Gnome in safe mode. Here's my .xsession-errors  http://pastebin.com/m4e77e3c8  What should I do to fix the problem?
[01:36] <jrib> gravemind1: get rid of everything except the modalias which I think jockey depends on
[01:36] <LjL> GodfatherofEire: can't you do that?
[01:37] <GodfatherofEire> I can, but I would rather not do that till I'm sure its fixed
[01:37] <LjL> GodfatherofEire, restarting X *is* what will fix it. changes that xbindkeys makes are not permanent.
[01:37] <gravemind1> jrib: done
[01:38] <jrib> gravemind1: how is dkms doing?
[01:38] <gravemind1> jrib: it is clear
[01:38] <tucuna> which Skype is the best choice in Intrepid? standard, statis or static-osss?
[01:38] <GodfatherofEire> LjL, Alrighty then, would ctrl alt backspace do the trick or do I need a full restart?
[01:38] <LjL> GodfatherofEire: "sudo apt-get --purge remove xbindkeys", then restart it
[01:38] <jrib> gravemind1: k, let's try installing nvidia-glx-177 again
[01:38] <LjL> GodfatherofEire: ctrl-alt-backspace will do
[01:38] <GodfatherofEire> Thanks, Ljl
[01:39] <gravemind1> jrib: alright. also installed kernel source and nvidia settings
[01:39] <gravemind1> ooh errors
[01:39] <Firstru7h> I have a video problem too with Nvidia
[01:39] <Firstru7h> I booted up 8.10 for the first time and I wanted to get the drivers for my 9600 GSO, but when I finished downloading and installing the driver and I restarted I got the splash screen, then no video and the login screen sound. Thinking that it was a glitch I restarted and got the same thing. I was able to pull up the gui by using recovery mode and xfix but I need to do this every time I turn on my computer. Can someone please help me?
[01:40] <gravemind1> jrib: kernel source not found at -generic/build or -/generic/source
[01:40] <jrib> gravemind1: that's the full output verbatim?
[01:41] <fantomas> Does anybody know how to browse windows network from Gnome?
[01:41] <gravemind1> jrib: just a sec, I'll give you verbatim
[01:41] <arjenks> Newbie here
[01:42] <arjenks> I am having a problem with sound in Ubuntu that I can't figure out
[01:42] <kusanagi_> anybody know the name of the aplicacion that runs in places-->find files... (I want to call it with sudo permisions)
[01:42] <Firstru7h> synaptic packet manager
[01:42] <musikgoat|main> kusanagi_: gnome-search-tool
[01:42] <Michael___> could i make GRUB load up the PCMCIA drivers and start ubuntu?
[01:42] <kusanagi_> thanks musikgoat|main
[01:43] <arjenks> my sounds are working when I log in, here in Pidgeon, etc., but I cannot get sound to work for some reason for video on youtube, cnn, etc.
[01:43] <bazhang> Michael___, no
[01:43] <Michael___> Not even with a seperate starter USB key?
[01:43] <kusanagi_> did you already know that or did u find it somewhere musikgoat|main ?
[01:43] <Dr_willis_> Michael___  grub dosent load drivers...
[01:43] <Firstru7h> I am having problems with video
[01:43] <gravemind1> jrib: verbatim of the two errors "Error! Your kernel source for kernel 2.6.27-7-generic cannot be found at /lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/build or /lib/modules/2.6.27-7-generic/source. Installing initial module     Error! Could not locate nvidia.ko for module nvidia in the DKMS tree. you must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.27-7-generic (x86_64) first."
[01:43] <musikgoat|main> kusanagi_: i found it when running and then typing the command ps aux  to see the list of processes running
[01:43] <Michael___> Is there a bootloader that can load drivers?
[01:43] <Firstru7h> stupid nvidia drivers
[01:43] <bazhang> Michael___, no
[01:44] <kusanagi_> ic, thanks again musikgoat|main
[01:44] <Dr_willis_> Michael___  I doubt it... boot loaders load the kernel,  and the kernels COULD have the drivers built in...
[01:44] <kusanagi_> :)
[01:44] <bazhang> !remaster | Michael___
[01:44] <jtisme> how can i download a package to a directory other than /var/cache/apt/archives
[01:44] <Tyrath> I'm trying to do a multiple disc install but it won't let me eject the disc - how can I eject the disc?
[01:44] <Michael___> I'm not running a live cd, its a usb keychain ubuntu install.
[01:44] <musikgoat|main> suggestions for this sound problem?  i cant get any sound running on my 8.10 x64 ubuntu, its worked fine until today.  tested through hardware tester and through sound options, and tested alsa, oss, edm, and pulseaudio. (speakers work :-)  here is lshw -C sound: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74092/
[01:45] <Firstru7h> I can't get my video to work can anyone help
[01:45] <jrib> gravemind1: do you have nvidia-177-kernel-source installed?
[01:45] <bazhang> Michael___, you can put that livecd to usb
[01:45] <Symgeosis> I was wondering if anybody knew of a way to make totem-xine output to pulseaudio. I have tried editing /home/.gnome2/xine_config to set the driver to pulse but there is no sound (no matter what the driver is set to). However, gxine works just fine.
[01:45] <gravemind1> jrib: yes. apt installed them at the same time
[01:45] <arjenks> Any thoughts on my sound issue?  Thanks!
[01:45] <Michael___> That really wont solve the problem, the laptop only boots from CD and its USB 1.1 ports.
[01:45] <gravemind1> jrib: oh, how do I check if it is currently installed?
[01:45] <Dr_willis_> Michael___  i was able to install some drivers on my usb-startup-disk-created thumbdrive.. but im not clear on what you are trying to do
[01:46] <musikgoat|main> arjenks: your issue is probly related to flash, not specifically sound
[01:46] <sinuc> how can i get simply rid of the "THe program <package> is current not installed. you can install.."
[01:46] <jrib> sinuc: uninstall command-not-found
[01:46] <bazhang> sinuc, install it
[01:46] <sinuc> lol
[01:46] <Dr_willis_> Michael___  in theory you could make a cd that could boot, then switch over to the thumbdrive... PuppyLinux basicially does that..
[01:46] <sinuc> jrib: thanks
[01:46] <jrib> gravemind1: apt-cache policy PACKAGE
[01:46] <gravemind1> thanks
[01:46] <Michael___> Im trying to load the PCMCIA drivers to operate a USB 2.0 card. From the USB flash device attached to that card, I want to launch Ubuntu.
[01:46] <jrib> sinuc: bazhang's solution is simler :)
[01:46] <arjenks> other thoughts musikgoat?
[01:46] <attidack> any one know where i can update my audio drivers I have a 780I
[01:46] <jrib> simpler even
[01:46] <Michael___> So could PuppyLinux do this?
[01:46] <savid> I just upgrade to intrepid, but for some reason xorg isn't using the nvidia driver,   and nvidia isn't showing up in the restricted drivers list  like it used to.  Why is that?
[01:47] <bazhang> I liked similar :)
[01:47] <KarnivOre> hi, i have a problem installing ubuntu on my machine. it completely hangs every time i try
[01:47] <musikgoat|main> arjenks: in FF go to about:plugins and see what flash plugin you have installed
[01:47] <Dr_willis_> Michael___  puppylinux is its own disrto.. what are you wanting to do exactly? thir channel is #puppyLinux
[01:47] <bazhang> Michael___, no linux can do that
[01:47] <jrib> savid: did you check the release notes
[01:47] <gravemind1> jrib: W: Unable to locate package
[01:47] <Michael___> Can anything do that?
[01:47] <savid> jrib, negative :-p
[01:48] <arjenks> the only flash specific plugin is Shockwave
[01:48] <jrib> gravemind1: nvidia-177-kernel-source ? are you sure?  pastebin your sources.list
[01:48] <attidack> my mic is way quite for some reason is there a way to boost it or download drivers for a 780i mobo its onboard sound
[01:48] <doug__> anyone here using smokeping-2.3.6-1?
[01:48] <Symgeosis> It makes me sad that I can not find a solution to my totem-xine issue =(
[01:48] <bazhang> Michael___, why do you need the usb 2.0 before the kernel loads?
[01:48] <jrib> !notes | savid
[01:48] <Michael___> USB 1.1 is slow.
[01:48] <savid> jrib, thanks
[01:48] <KarnivOre> hi, i have a problem installing ubuntu on my machine. it completely hangs every time i try. i have successfully installed ubuntu before without trouble. could it be a hardware thing?
[01:49] <Michael___> The kernel boots from USB 1.1
[01:49] <jrib> Firstru7h: you should pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.0.log after a failed X start.  Use pastebinit if you need to
[01:49] <bazhang> Michael___, so this is just about saving a few seconds of boot time?

[01:51] <surplusxmas> Looking for a good GUI mass file renamer. Any suggestions?
[01:51] <jrib> attidack: no
[01:51] <attidack> o ok
[01:51] <musikgoat|main> arjenks: one sec
[01:51] <bazhang> KarnivOre, where does it get to
[01:51] <Firstru7h> When I finished downloading and installing the driver and I restarted I got the splash screen, then no video and the login screen sound. Thinking that it was a glitch I restarted and got the same thing. I was able to pull up the gui by using recovery mode and xfix but I need to do this every time I turn on my computer.
[01:51] <sinuc> i need to create a control file, im kinda of confused what to get there as minimum required version of the depency
[01:51] <DasEI1> KarnivOre: kinda machine ?
[01:51] <sinuc> the example is Package: libswscale1d
[01:52] <KarnivOre> bazhang: it gets to the gui, i select install. it loads up and then hangs at a black screen with the cursor, which i can move for about 3 seconds before it completely hangs and i have to hard reboot
[01:52] <sinuc> Version: 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7.1+medibuntu
[01:52] <LF|KDE> surplusxmas: you might just try 'aptitude search renamer |more' in a terminal , see if anything shows up
[01:52] <bazhang> KarnivOre, did you md5 the iso, burn at low speed then do the disk integrity check on the cd?
[01:52] <sinuc> i included it as: libswscale1d (>=3:0.cvs20070307) doesnt everything after 3:0... not matter?
[01:52] <DasEI1> KarnivOre: did you check cd for defects(installer's option ?)
[01:52] <KarnivOre> yes
[01:52] <doug__> anyone here using smokeping ?
[01:52] <KarnivOre> it didnt find any
[01:53] <Michael___> Is there a distro of debian that is smaller than Ubuntu and bigger than DSL that works well including networking?
[01:53] <riddlebox> is there any software for linux that will give you turn by turn directions with a gps receiver?
[01:53] <bazhang> md5?
[01:53] <gravemind1> jrib: apt-cache policy nvidia-vlx-177-kernel-source returns negative. checking aptitude to see if that's how you spell it
[01:53] <jrib> gravemind1: g, not v

[01:54] <bazhang> KarnivOre, if that does not help you should try the alternate installer

[01:56] <jrib> savid: right, that's not what I said :)  You were supposed to check if your card was mentioned in the release notes
[01:56] <sinuc> they have a list of all distros and base packages
[01:56] <sinuc> including whats its based on
[01:56] <bazhang> distrowatch.com
[01:56] <sinuc> yea

[01:57] <jrib> clayX: try #kubuntu
[01:57] <Lollipopz> can i automatically install all dependencies through apt-get?
[01:57] <Firstru7h> When I finished downloading and installing the driver and I restarted I got the splash screen, then no video and the login screen sound. Thinking that it was a glitch I restarted and got the same thing. I was able to pull up the gui by using recovery mode and xfix but I need to do this every time I turn on my computer.
[01:57] <ahtmly2k> i was trying to setup my touchpad but then a dialog box turned up
[01:57] <jrib> Lollipopz: apt-get automatically does that
[01:57] <rodolfo> what is the channel for ubuntu in chinese?
[01:58] <yerchin> I gotta say Linux is pretty f'in cool. Mostly cause of all the open source software that microsoft would never allow in auto updates.
[01:58] <jrib> !cn | rodolfo
[01:58] <ahtmly2k> "GSynaptics couldn't initialize.
[01:58] <ahtmly2k> You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics"
[01:58] <bazhang> #ubuntu-cn
[01:58] <rodolfo> thanks
[01:58] <rodolfo> not hong kong...china will be ok
[01:58] <jrib> ahtmly2k: did you read the link ubottu gave you?
[01:58] <savid> jrib, no, I want to use proprietary
[01:58] <ahtmly2k> yes
[01:58] <savid> jrib, I need to get xgl/compiz working
[01:58] <Lollipopz> jrib i get this gfortran: Depends: gfortran-4.2 (>= 4.2.3-1) but it is not going to be installed
[01:59] <jrib> savid: well "want" and "can" are two different things
[01:59] <ahtmly2k> i didnt get wht it meant...
[01:59] <KarnivOre> bazhang: md5 check failed. i take it i need to dl again and burn yes?
[01:59] <ahtmly2k> did my X crash or sumthin?
[01:59] <Lollipopz> jrib and it forces me to go up and up through packages :(
[01:59] <bazhang> KarnivOre, that means the iso is corrupt so yes a re-dl is in order
[01:59] <savid> jrib,  I understood,  but any idea why nvidia's not showing up in the restricted drivers list?
[01:59] <jrib> ahtmly2k: if you google "shmconfig hal fdi" you will probabl get what you need.  Or you can read and comprehend the docs I linked to
[01:59] <gravemind1> jrib: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6026389. Looks like I need to install the headers, which I am doing now
[02:00] <KarnivOre> bazhang: cheers mate. have a good one
[02:00] <jrib> savid: I think they are working on it.  nvidia needs to release compatible drivers for some cards and the new X
[02:00] <ahtmly2k> oh so thats wht u mean... thanx i'll check it out
[02:00] <Symgeosis> Anybody know how to make totem-xine output to pulseaudio? I have tried editing /home/.gnome2/xine_config to set the driver to pulse but there is no sound (no matter what the driver is set to). However, gxine works just fine.
[02:00] <Marquisk2> anybody familiar with running left 4 dead game server on ubuntu?
[02:00] <jrib> ahtmly2k: the first link is actually to the ubuntu wiki :)
[02:01] <soho> is it safe to run openssh server on ubuntu?
[02:01] <Frogzoo> soho: lol, you won't get any guarantee
[02:02] <tritium> soho: as safe as on any other distro
[02:02] <soho> oh okay
[02:02] <soho> how do you secure it?
[02:02] <DasEI> soho:least I haven't heard else
[02:02] <Nutt718> Is the an application capable of receiving Windows Media services stream?
[02:02] <Lollipopz> all my packages are on packages.ubuntu.com
[02:02] <gravemind1> jrib: dkms status seems correct. Now running sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-177-kernel-source
[02:02] <sinuc> soho: deny rootaccess, create a group called ssh and set the allow only this group parameter in the sshdconfig, also setup denyhosts
[02:02] <Lollipopz> is there a reason they are not in my apt-get database?
[02:03] <musikgoat|main> should this statement be correct?  sudo aptitude install linux-ubuntu-modules-`uname -r`   and if so,  why would i get this output:   Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.27-8-generic"
[02:03] <bazhang> Lollipopz, you need to enable the repos
[02:03] <DasEI> soho:what do you want the server to do ?
[02:03] <jrib> musikgoat|main: why do you want to run that?
[02:03] <soho> to allow me to transfer files to my iphone via ssh
[02:03] <musikgoat|main> jrib: trying to go through sound card troubleshooting
[02:03] <savid> jrib, seriously? so I can't get accelerated nvidia working at all in intrepid?
[02:03] <musikgoat|main> jrib: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[02:03] <doug__> soho, disable passwords, use keys
[02:03] <soho> what do you mean doug__
[02:04] <jrib> savid: if that's what it said in the release notes about your card, then you have to wait.  It's being worked on.  Check bugs.ubuntu.com, there may be some packages you can test (or not)
[02:04] <doug__> what i said - use keys rather than passwords
[02:04] <soho> what are keys? like a key phrase?
[02:04] <doug__> (altho i wouldnt know if your iphone can do that...)
[02:04] <sinuc> maco: aptitude search linux-ubuntu-modules-$(uname -r)
[02:04] <gravemind1> jrib: It looks like it installed clearly, but then gave a bunch of Buffer I/O errors -- what does that mean?
[02:04] <Chrisie> Symgeosis: I thought it was~/.config/totem/xine_config which needed to be changed: something like "audio.driver:alsa" / pulse etc.
[02:05] <sinuc> maco: sorry, wrong tabbed
[02:05] <jrib> musikgoat|main: they probably mean linux-restricted-modules, not linux-ubuntu-modules
[02:05] <tritium> !ssh | soho
[02:05] <Tshering> That felt stupid...
[02:05] <gravemind1> jrib: my terminal now has a blinking cursor instead of a prompt
[02:05] <spaz-atk> Hey guys, does anyone else here use WinFF successfully?
[02:05] <musikgoat|main> jrib: hah, i knew that seemed wierd
[02:05] <spaz-atk> I always get errors about missing encoders
[02:06] <DasEI> spaz-atk:ff= firefox ?! why winFF ?
[02:06] <spaz-atk> i.e. Unknown encoder 'h264'
[02:06] <jrib> gravemind1: hrmm.  Can you get to X?
[02:06] <spaz-atk> dasEI: it's a ffmpeg frontend
[02:06] <gravemind1> jrib: I will check (btw ctrl-c solved the blinking cursor)
[02:06] <DasEI> spaz-atk:k, no idea about it
[02:07] <jrib> gravemind1: oh, it's not what I thought then
[02:07] <djjason> is it possible to enable compiz to work with xinerama?
[02:07] <gravemind1> jrib: I tried ctrl-alt-backspace from the X terminal but it didn't work. I'm looking at old startup messages. Should I sudo shutdown -r now?
[02:08] <ice-nine> djjason: how many monitors do you have hooked up?
[02:08] <spaz-atk> DasEI: well do you know a good way to convert videos to iPod format? (640X480 1500mbps)
[02:08] <jrib> gravemind1: you can try.  I'm not sure what to make of the errors you described
[02:08] <djjason> ice-nine: I have three monitors set up...using nvidia drivers and xinerama enabled....and everythins is working perfectly except I just cant get compiz to work
[02:08] <Symgeosis> Chrisie, thanks. There is also a xine_config file in there (which seems rather redundant imo) but it still does not seem to make a difference.
[02:09] <savid> damn, I wish I would have known that before I upgraded :-(
[02:09] <Uplink> any other system monitor that works like conky?
[02:09] <tritium> savid: known what?
[02:09] <ice-nine> djjason:  Me too.  I haven't found a fix yet.   It seems to work if I use two, but not when I add in the third.  Sorry...
[02:09] <qowao> hey where would i enable auto-logon???????
[02:10] <Dr_willis_> qowao  the gdm config tool has a tab for that.
[02:10] <gravemind1> jrib: I'll give you some more information -- are buffer errors common/important? "[4074.924391] end_request: I/O error, dev sr0, sector 0
[02:10] <Symgeosis> Chrisie, nevermind. I set it to alsa instead of "pulse" (as the pulse website instructs) or "pulseaudio" (which is in the gxine config file) and it works. Thanks!
[02:10] <djjason> ice-nine: crap....thats a bummer...I had two previously...and yes...it also worked fine for me then..but then I was using twin-view
[02:10] <tritium> qowao: System -> Administration -> Login Window
[02:10] <qowao> ok Dr_willis_ !
[02:10] <qowao> ok!
[02:10] <DasEI> spaz-atk:http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9266
[02:10] <gravemind1> jrib: then lines for Buffer I/O error on device sr0, logical block 0-7
[02:10] <ice-nine> djjason:  I found a workaround for the maximizing of windows though...
[02:10] <jrib> gravemind1: any idea what sr0 is?
[02:10] <Symgeosis> Chrisie, thankfully I have pulse monitor all audio input which makes things simple ;-)
[02:11] <djjason> ice-nine: really...whats the workaround for that
[02:11] <gravemind1> jrib: I don't recognize it, and mount doesn't seem to talk abou tit
[02:11] <mwilson_> 2 things...   anyone figure out how to get Xfi drivers working in 8.10x64?  Also, what's the deal with terminal windows and having to press enter twice to get the response from a command?
[02:12] <jrib> gravemind1: that seems to be my cdrom 0_o
[02:12] <DasEI> mrwilson_: xfi soundcard ?
[02:12] <spree> I am having a problem with logging into Gnome. I have to enter Gnome in safe mode. Here's my .xsession-errors  http://pastebin.com/m4e77e3c8  What should I do to fix the problem?
[02:12] <savid> tritium, that intrepid wouldn't work w/  my nvidia card  (at least for hardware-accelerated graphics)
[02:12] <u007> hi, anyone know why my ssd does not hotplug anymore? i've to manually mount
[02:12] <mwilson_> DasEI: yes.  XFi Titanium Fatality Pro.
[02:12] <musikgoat|main> anyone have suggestions for this sound problem?  i cant get any sound running on my 8.10 x64 ubuntu, its worked fine until today.  tested through hardware tester and through sound options, and tested alsa, oss, edm, and pulseaudio. (speakers work :-)  nvidia audio card CK804, here is lshw -C sound: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74092/
[02:12] <gravemind1> jrib: heh some random cd error I guess then
[02:12] <gravemind1> I'm gonna restart and see what x does
[02:12] <spaz-atk> DasEI: i don't see anythign about video conversion there, am i missing something?
[02:12] <ice-nine> djjason:  installing a recompiled xinerama library..   I'll see if I can find the link for the webpage.
[02:12] <DasEI> mrwilson_: you got one of the ones not supported, get another s-card
[02:14] <ice-nine> djjason:  http://ktown.kde.org/~seli/fakexinerama/      It worked quite well for me..
[02:14] <djjason> ice-nine: nice...I'll take a look at that...thanks
[02:15] <mwilson_> DasEI: It is in their support list.
[02:16] <DasEI> spaz-atk:you could try acidrip after installing dvd-codecs
[02:17] <DasEI> mwilson_: that would be new... exact model ?
[02:17] <gravemind1> jrib: direct rendering is yes!
[02:17] <spaz-atk> DasEI: I'm nor ripping, I'm just converting files already on my computer
[02:17] <powertool08> does anyone know why a printer would stop showing up? I unplugged it for a few days and when I plugged it back in it isn't available, not listed in lsusb either
[02:17] <gravemind1> jrib: jockey is registering that "nvidia" is in use
[02:17] <spree> I am having a problem with logging into Gnome. I have to enter Gnome in safe mode. Here's my .xsession-errors  http://pastebin.com/m4e77e3c8  What should I do to fix the problem?
[02:17] <jrib> gravemind1: cool
[02:17] <Chrisie> spaz-atk: missed your original question. Yeah WinFF works here; I use it to encode to Ipod H.264
[02:18] <gravemind1> jrib: do you think we should write a bug report against jockey for this?
[02:18] <DasEI> spaz-atk: http://www.togaware.com/linux/survivor/AcidRip_Simple.html
[02:18] <gravemind1> jrib: maybe it should check that linux-headers is installed
[02:18] <ice-nine> powertool08:  Simple things like rebooting, or powering the printer off and on..  I figure that's already done.
[02:18] <jrib> gravemind1: yeah, there's a bug somewhere.  I wonder how they usually get pulled in
[02:18] <mwilson_> DasEI: I'd have to pull it out of the machine for that, lol.
[02:18] <spaz-atk> Chrisie: I keep getting Unknown encoder 'h264' or: Unknown encoder 'xvid'
[02:19] <powertool08> ice-nine: haven't rebooted but power cycling the printer didn't help
[02:19] <DasEI> mwilson-: nope, is it the one you're on and running ubunutu ?
[02:19] <sudobash> so i have walked my buddy 3000 miles away how to get online and I am connected to his box with ssh and I need to reconfigure his X.org files... It is an Alienware laptop Geforce 6 i believe... I know it just needs to be reconfigured, but i tried changing nvidia to nv and it still failed... It was just upgraded from 8.04 to 8.10 today... What do i need to do to get his new nvidia drivers working from SSH
[02:19] <sudobash> ?
[02:19] <mwilson_> yes, ubuntu 8.10x64
[02:20] <Tyrath> I like vga=791 cause it sets the text to small in console and makes it much easier to scroll through large chunks of texts - especially apparent for text docs/source code etc, as a result however the splash screen on boot is half in the screen and half out. is there a way around this?
[02:20] <DasEI> !who|mwilson_
[02:20] <DasEI> mwilson-: open a terminal..
[02:20] <sudobash> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glxsomething
[02:20] <[-> does anyone know of a system profiler i can apt-get install?
[02:20] <sudobash> sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177?
[02:21] <mwilson_> DasEI have one.
[02:21] <DasEI> mwilson-: lspci
[02:21] <doug__> anyone here using smokeping ?
[02:21] <DasEI> mwilson-: look it up
[02:21] <mwilson_> DasEI it's there.
[02:21] <Tyrath> anyone?
[02:21] <DasEI> mwilson-: model ?
[02:22] <Chrisie> spaz-atk: What version of ffmpeg do you have? "ffmpeg -v"
[02:22] <sudobash> if i install via sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-177 what is the command now to configure X.org?
[02:22] <jrib> sudobash: do it by hand, it's fun and cleaner!
[02:22] <mwilson_> DasEI says creative labs audio device, 000b rev 03.
[02:23] <the_dark_warrio> My gnuplot is crashing whenever I try to close the plot window. The strange thing is it was working fine until now (and I use it for a long time). When trying to close the windows, gnuplot crashes and I have to force quit. Any tips?
[02:23] <sudobash> yeah but I used to do that back in 7.10 days it has changed
[02:23] <[-> (-=!! I need to get the exact model of my video card. Does anyone know a system profiler i gan apt-get install? =-)
[02:23] <mwilson_> DasEI looking around, several people are having problems with them on 64bit.
[02:23] <jrib> sudobash: no it hasn't
[02:23] <sudobash> and it 3000 miles away
[02:23] <jrib> sudobash: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74112/
[02:24] <sudobash> damn short
[02:24] <spaz-atk> Chrisie: I think i have the neutered version,   http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d301a9e3e
[02:24] <DasEI> mwilson-: I remember a long night with the xfi, it was definteley not supported, and also alsa has no news about it, where did you get the info uf being supported ?
[02:25] <sudobash> that works?
[02:25] <Tyrath> sudobash: the KDE version is kxgenerator not sure if that helps :/
[02:25] <ice-nine> sudobash:  You could try editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add nvidia in place of nv..    I'd dare not do it unless someone else OKs it.
[02:25] <mwilson_> DasEI they released the drivers on the 6th publicly...  source and all...   go check creative's site.
[02:25] <Tyrath> sudobash: actually scrap what i said lol
[02:25] <sudobash> yeah i already tried that ice-nine
[02:25] <DasEI> [-: correct nick ?
[02:26] <Uplink> can someone help me out why conky keeps hiding my desktop shortcuts?
[02:26] <yerchin> !make | yerchin
[02:26] <Tyrath> ok I've gotta do an install so i'll catch you all later
[02:26] <Chrisie> spaz-atk: yeah. Mine seems to be a lil older but has --enable-xvid  etc. etc. showing in the configuration
[02:26] <[-> no.. its supposed to be ellis
[02:26] <sudobash> but let me try again... is there a way to execute a command on his screen over ssh? I have in w: joseph   tty1     -                17:54   10:48m  0.34s  0.32s -bash
[02:26] <sudobash> tty1 is the terminal i want to execute the command on
[02:26] <sudobash> startx

[02:27] <mwilson_> DasEI http://support.creative.com/downloads/welcome.aspx?nDriverType=1#type_1
[02:27] <spaz-atk> Chrisie: Ya, i'm going to try to manually build it without being neutered cuz of the patent issues
[02:28] <Chrisie> spaz-atk: Yup, best way
[02:28] <spree> I am having a problem with logging into Gnome. I have to enter Gnome in safe mode. Here's my .xsession-errors  http://pastebin.com/m4e77e3c8  What should I do to fix the problem?

[02:30] <sudobash> how can i enable messages on tty1 for write? write: <user> has messages disabled on tty1....
[02:30] <tucuna> anyone know about setting gspca parameters?
[02:30] <amdpox> natalie, are you running it at stock speed or overclocking?
[02:30] <spree> natalie, sounds like a question for #hardware
[02:30] <spree> natalie, I would get a better heat sink and more case fans
[02:31] <Chrisie> ! ffmpeg
[02:31] <DasEI> mwilson-: only shows me win-drivers
[02:31] <natalie> amdpox, running at stock
[02:31] <jrib> Chrisie: what is your question?
[02:31] <r3dux> natalie - check your bios thermal cutout settings - possibly (but unlikely) to be set low and instead of dropping Mhz stops CPU...
[02:32] <ice-nine> sudobash:  see if "talk" works...
[02:32] <blakkheim> could someone tell me how to install a new sound theme on 8.10? i've got the mac4lin sound .tar.gz file, but after running the script the only theme i see listed is the default "Ubuntu"
[02:32] <mwilson_> they are right at the top...  the first download is linux..   do a refresh.  :)
[02:32] <DasEI> natalie :sys overclocked ?
[02:32] <wendy> im instaling ubuntu on a third particion on my hardrive, where i have windows, my documents, and 3rd ubuntu
[02:32] <Chrisie> jrib: no question jrib. Just curious to see if the bot had a version num for ffmpeg (doubted it as medibuntu package)
[02:32] <natalie> DasEI, no it is not.
[02:32] <spree> natalie, r3dux is right BUT that's not solving the problem
[02:32] <mwilson_> DasEI Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi and X-Fi Titanium Series Linux 32-bit / 64-bit Driver Source Release
[02:32] <wendy> i made a space of 30 gigs, im confused in the partitioning,
[02:32] <musikgoat|main> !info ffmpeg
[02:32] <spree> natalie, having a processor that gets too hot will shorten its life
[02:32] <darkbishop> !backup
[02:33] <DasEI> natalie :maybe install conky to make shure it's the temp that freezes pc
[02:33] <musikgoat|main> Chrisie: ^^
[02:33] <Marquisk2> is ubuntu a real cpu hog?
[02:33] <scunizi> wendy, don't create another /swap.. use the existing one from your other install
[02:33] <jrib> !info ffmpeg | Chrisie
[02:33] <r3dux> natalie - also, could try running something intensive in a live distro for a little while to see if you have the same prob. If you don't, it's a config issue in your OS
[02:33] <spaz-atk> where are apt-get source files downloaded to?
[02:33] <Chrisie> musikgoat|main: thank ya kindly
[02:33] <wendy> where it says "use as" i put what? ext3 journaling?
[02:33] <Chrisie> jrib: ditto :)
[02:33] <tritium> spaz-atk: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[02:33] <scunizi> wendy, for / and /home yes
[02:33] <wendy> on the 3rd one i want to install ubuntu
[02:33] <spree> Marquisk2, Not really, no. It takes more resources than some distributions but nothing compared to windows 2000, xp or vista
[02:34] <wendy> for / means root?
[02:34] <spaz-atk> tritium: I thought that was jsut the .deb files? cuz I can't find the source i jsut downloaded there
[02:34] <DasEI> yes, wendy
[02:34] <wendy> omg ty!
[02:34] <tritium> spaz-atk: it doens't download the source package.
[02:34] <wendy> so / = 1 gig?
[02:34] <r3dux> ?
[02:34] <spaz-atk> tritium: what does it do then?
[02:34] <scunizi> wendy, yes.. if you're not seperating / "root" & /home you can get away with just one partition for your ubuntu install .. just use the swap from your other linux install for the /swap
[02:34] <DasEI> wendy  , 10gig ?!
[02:35] <tritium> spaz-atk: apt-get source <packagename>
[02:35] <sammyF> Hey there. Anybody got experience with dpkg-buildpackage? I'm getting a "missing separator" error on clean and I don't know what it means
[02:35] <wendy> lol im confused....i dont have any linux instaled
[02:35] <gravemind> jrib: anything else to add? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jockey/+bug/299723
[02:35] <spaz-atk> tritium: ya, i did sudo apt-get source ffmpeg
[02:35] <r3dux> sammyF - another way to "clean" the src build dir would be to del it and re-extract the src;)
[02:36] <DasEI> wend: a usual install takes 2-4 gig for system, then you need space for files (/home) and swap shall be double of ram
[02:36] <mwilson_> DasEI see it yet?
[02:36] <Guest9146> the hwinfo didnt help.. i got a big list of unclassified devices.. it gave me my mainboard and ram and stuff. even my usb drive.. but my vidcard didnt show up..
[02:36] <tritium> spaz-atk: then you should find the source in your current working directory, where you ran the command
[02:36] <scunizi> wendy, you said ubuntu would be on your 3rd partition.. windows typically takes only 1 .. so you have an additional partition for data?
[02:36] <mwilson_> DasEI:
[02:36] <wendy> scunizi:  yes
[02:36] <mwilson_>  Release date : 6 Nov 08
[02:36] <Guest9146> can i get a generic ATI driver set? i have a newer dual dvi asus/ati 512 meg
[02:36] <mwilson_> This download is a source release driver providing Linux® 32-bit / 64-bit OS support for Creative Sound Blaster® X-Fi™ and X-Fi Titanium series of audio devices. For more details, read the rest of this web release note.
[02:37] <wendy> im going to say what i want to do, i think this is confusingme
[02:37] <spaz-atk> tritium: o ya! duh, ya thanks, i usually don't download sources via apt, so i forgot how it did things
[02:37] <ice-nine> scunizi:  I think wendy has a separate partition for her important files..  Or "MyDocuments"
[02:37] <DasEI> mwilson-: only shows me win-drivers, (manual selection)
[02:37] <tritium> spaz-atk: ;)
[02:37] <sammyF> r3dux, it's a pygame game (I love redundancy;) .. so there is nothing to actually clean
[02:37] <jrib> gravemind: sounds good
[02:37] <wendy> ice-nine: yes thats corect
[02:37] <darkbishop> !backup
[02:37] <freetos00> what's the easiest way to turn a dvd into an iso file to be stored on my hd?  i need to mount 3 dvd iso's so i can install my mercedes manual
[02:38] <scunizi> wendy, ok.. then you have a couple of choices.. create a logical volume so you can have more than 4 partitions.. that way you can seperate /home from /root and create a /swap.. otherwise you end up combining /root & /home together and have a seperate /swap..
[02:38] <DasEI> Guest9146: could you paste the output from hwinfo ? see:
[02:38] <DasEI> !paste
[02:38] <musikgoat|main> darkbishop: did you forget about the links? ;-)
[02:38] <gravemind> jrib: alright. thanks for helping solve this issue
[02:38] <jrib> gravemind: no problem
[02:38] <Frogzoo> freetos00: dd if=/dev/dvd of=blah.iso bs=1000000
[02:38] <DasEI>  freetos00: kr3b does it
[02:38] <ice-nine> wendy:  you will need to create two partitions.  One for "/" and one for the "swap" partition.
[02:39] <darkbishop> musikgoat|main:yeah... my firefox suddently close and i dont remmeber the link...
[02:39] <musikgoat|main> darkbishop: ahh
[02:39] <freetos00> thanks
[02:39] <r3dux> Frogzoo - will dd create the iso format headers (assuming there are any?)
[02:39] <wendy> thank you, now ice-nine i have 4 gigs of ram, so swap is how big? when im only have 30gigs?
[02:39] <Frogzoo> r3dux: yep, you'll have an exact duplicate
[02:40] <wendy> i know the rest will be /
[02:40] <darkbishop> wendy: are u using 64 bit or 32 bit os?
[02:40] <wendy> 32
[02:40] <ice-nine> wendy:  I'd say leave it at 1 gig.  With 4 gigs of ram, you won't really need much of a swap at all.
[02:40] <Frogzoo> wendy: 32bit = 3.2gig
[02:40] <r3dux> Frogzoo, - I thought the .iso format would need some header/meta data or such... will have to give it a whack some time :)
[02:40] <musikgoat|main> wendy: if you don't mind not having hybernate, 1GB
[02:40] <DasEI> wendy:at such a big ram, consider using 64bit, and, if you don't need to hibernate, swap will be used sparely anyway at that amount
[02:41] <Frogzoo> r3dux: you actually mount the iso image as an iso9660 filesystem
[02:41] <darkbishop> wendy:32 bit  os only will use 3gb ram at most... plus just make 3 gig swap.. tat will solve it.. since it wont be use tat much anyway
[02:41] <wendy> wao, so many different points of view
[02:41] <ice-nine> lolz...
[02:41] <musikgoat|main> heh
[02:41] <r3dux> Frogzoo, - Okey-doke, cheers fella.
[02:41] <scunizi> Frogzoo, that's an old calculation for wendy .. usually you'll only need 1 gig or less.. more swap can become needed IF you're doing a lot of processing of video or Blender stuff.
[02:41] <wendy> lol jajaja thank you, im tsting the ubuntu
[02:41] <freetos00> Frogzoo: what's the 1000000 for?
[02:41] <yksinaisyyteni> i see the 8.10 upgrade removed the keyboard section rom my xorg.conf because "HAL is now used".  but X is not detecting my keyboard properly.  is it safe to re-add the keyboard section?
[02:41] <musikgoat|main> scunizi: i agree
[02:41] <Frogzoo> freetos00: only to speed things up
[02:42] <wendy> ok 3 gigs swap and rest root
[02:42] <whyameye> hardy 64 bit: audacity won't play unless it is the only app using sound AND I use OSS. I feel like I am in the dark ages.
[02:42] <mwilson_> DasEI: give up already?
[02:42] <wendy> lol fair enough?
[02:42] <Uplink> can someone help me out why conky keeps hiding my desktop shortcuts?
[02:42] <scunizi> wendy, no.. 1 gig or less of swap
[02:42] <Frogzoo> wendy: NOOooo.... - only 1 gig needed for swap
[02:42] <wendy> ok i gues im getting you all to the same answer which is great :)
[02:42] <Frogzoo> wendy: oh - you're hibernating - so 3 gigs it is
[02:42] <darkbishop> windy: use 1024 only... scratch tat...
[02:42] <ice-nine> I imagine wendy can spare the space..
[02:42] <duckabolo> [Laptop sound] - does anyone have a hp pavilion dv4?
[02:43] <darkbishop> i give up
[02:43] <wendy> lol, jajjaajaja
[02:43] <wendy> hhahahaha oh god
[02:43] <musikgoat|main> wendy: keep in mind, that 1gb is fine, but you cannot hibernate
[02:43] <r3dux> whyameye, - have your tried the newer 1.0.18 ALSA? Not in repos yet I don't think, but there's install scripts about
[02:43] <wendy> i dont know what hibernate is, lol
[02:43] <DasEI> mwilson-: where is there a linux driver ?
[02:43] <musikgoat|main> ok good
[02:43] <tritium> wendy: suspend to disk
[02:43] <wendy> ill do 3 gigs, can that hibernate?
[02:43] <zombuntu> bbc iplayer on totem for 8.04? anybody?
[02:43] <musikgoat|main> 1gb
[02:43] <whyameye> r3dux: thx. I'll look.
[02:44] <darkbishop> wendy: yeah... tat can hibernate...
[02:44] <DasEI> !paste > Guest9146
[02:44] <wendy> done!
[02:44] <wendy> oh here is my next question
[02:44] <musikgoat|main> wendy: you need as much swap as RAM, then you can hibernate
[02:44] <darkbishop> plus she already got 4gb or ram
[02:44] <Chrisie> zombuntu: flash playback only for the Beeb iplayer: anything downloaded is Windows DRM
[02:44] <duckabolo> [Laptop sound] - has anyone experience sound issues in hp laptop using 8.10 ?
[02:44] <kindofabuzz> how come i don't even have the option to hibernate?
[02:45] <JustinL545> How do I restart the x server in command line if my x window is frozen?
[02:45] <musikgoat|main> kindofabuzz: because your buzzed?
[02:45] <wendy> so im going to create my first partition, i put END or BEGinning?
[02:45] <scunizi> beginning
[02:45] <musikgoat|main> kindofabuzz: ;-)  j/k
[02:45] <duckabolo> [Laptop sound] - it's been a while, i am struggling to get sound working (*sigh*)
[02:45] <kindofabuzz> musikgoat|main, not really, but kindof
[02:45] <wendy> scunizi: you sure?
[02:45] <musikgoat|main> ba da bum
[02:45] <wendy> i mean remembr this is a partition of 1 hard drive
[02:45] <r3dux> duckabolo, - I couldn't get any sound in .10 till I used new 1.0.18 ALSA
[02:46] <r3dux> "in 8.10"
[02:46] <scunizi> wendy, just cascade them.. the first one you create is at the beginning of the free space
[02:46] <wendy> ohhhh i see its the BEGINNING of the free space
[02:46] <duckabolo> r3dux: i've tried using the oss on the support, that didn't work either
[02:46] <Zemus> Hello, everyone. I'm experiencing an extremely bizarre GRUB error. I have outlined it here: http://pastebin.ca/1261064 . I think a number of you will find it strange and interesting, and either way I will appreciate any help you are willing to give me.
[02:46] <Peddy1> How do I list all installed packages with apt-get, so I can grep for certain package names?
[02:47] <spree> I am having a problem with logging into Gnome. I have to enter Gnome in safe mode. Here's my .xsession-errors  http://pastebin.com/m4e77e3c8  What should I do to fix the problem?
[02:47] <Zemus> In short, GRUB will not load, except for an odd bug I've found that allows it to load. Details in the pastebin.
[02:47] <JustinL545> How do I restart the x server from command line if my x window is frozen? ...any one knows?
[02:47] <duckabolo> r3dux: from a fresh install, i could hear the drumming during login screen... afterwards i get nothing.
[02:47] <r3dux> duckabolo, - grab yourself a new alsa install script - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=962695
[02:47]  * V1psta is away: I'm busy
[02:48] <musikgoat|main> duckabolo: i just fixed my sound problem, does this command give you any output? speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -t wav -l1
[02:48] <Pici> !away > V1psta
[02:48] <Zemus> Any ideas? Anyone at all?
[02:48] <DasEI> Peddy1:see :
[02:48]  * V1psta is back (gone 00:00:01)
[02:48] <DasEI> !clone
[02:49] <V1psta> oh shutup, I was turning it off lol
[02:49] <duckabolo> musikgoat|main : im getting errors with that command
[02:49] <musikgoat|main> !paste | duckabolo
[02:49] <duckabolo> musikgoat|main : i have followed the instructions on the open sound support and make install that tho
[02:50] <sudobash> im trying 173 instead of 177
[02:50] <Zemus> Has anyone looked at my problem yet? http://pastebin.ca/1261064
[02:50] <kindofabuzz> why do I not even have the option to hibernate?
[02:50] <ssalas92> need help!!!!
[02:51] <duckabolo> musikgoat: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74121/
[02:51] <Peddy1> DasEI: Is there a way to make it say package versions as well?
[02:51] <ssalas92> can anyone helpme???
[02:51] <Zemus> ssalas92: This channel is dedicated to helping people. Stop asking if someone will help you and instead tell us what you need help on.
[02:52] <duckabolo> musikgoat: i wonder if those errors was a result of me uninstalling alsa from open sound support guide?
[02:52] <musikgoat|main> duckabolo: yes
[02:52] <wolfspirit> I enabled intrepids proposed repos and I would like to install the 71.86.07 nvidia drivers but 71.86.04 is the only one listed still even though I did a reload.. any ideas?
[02:52] <ssalas92> i got this:
[02:52] <ssalas92> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[02:52] <ssalas92> E: _cache->open() failed, please report.
[02:52] <musikgoat|main> duckabolo: try sudo apt-get install alsa alsa-tools
[02:52] <duckabolo> musikgoat: ok.. will do that now
[02:53] <musikgoat|main> duckabolo: change tools to utils probly
[02:53] <sudobash> is there a new command to configure xorg for nvidia 173 or 177?
[02:53] <Peddy1> I want to list all packages that have 'bluetooth' in the package name, how would I do so?
[02:54] <Dr_willis> sudobash,  i just use the nvidia-settings or nvidia-xconfig commands... or use an old backed up xorg.conf :)
[02:54] <duckabolo> musikgoat: it seems i've already got them
[02:54] <matt____> I can't get soundkonverter to recognize an audio cd...any ideas why?
[02:54] <doug__> Peddy1, dpkg -l |grep bluetooth
[02:54] <Peddy1> thanks doug__
[02:54] <doug__> np
[02:54] <musikgoat|main> doug__: wouldn't that only show the installed packages?
[02:55] <musikgoat|main> doug__: or no
[02:55] <doug__> oh did i miss an all?
[02:55] <doug__> cos y what i said would show installed pkgs
[02:55] <freetos00> does anybody know what the kr3b homepage is?
[02:55] <x1250> I've just discovered that I was using "Tahoma" font only in my mind, since it doesn't ship with msttcorefonts. I would like to know what is the fallback openoffice is using for unexisting fonts, for I want to make that font the default one for writer documents.
[02:55] <musikgoat|main> doug__: nvm, i think i'm wrong
[02:56] <matt____> I can't get soundkonverter to recognize an audio cd...any ideas why?
[02:56] <duckabolo> musikgoat: i went through the guide at : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound
[02:56] <Zemus> GRUB won't load when I boot up my system, it just goes straight to linux. Leaving a bootable cd in the drive and then cancelling fixes the problem. Any ideas?
[02:56] <DasEI> Peddy1:could try option --version with it ( see man dpkg)
[02:56] <Zemus> Details here: http://pastebin.ca/1261064
[02:56] <yerchin> How do I open a make file and get it to run as an executable?
[02:57] <zappitelli16> Does anyone know how to use wine to install exe files? I've located the file and tried to install, it says install wizard is opening, but then never does any advice?
[02:57] <musikgoat|main> doug__: sudo aptitude search bluetooth   brings up more results that dpkg -l | grep bluetooth
[02:57] <duckabolo> musikgoat: the speaker icon is muted on my laptop touch-short-cut
[02:57] <wolfspirit> I'm on ubuntu 8.10 and can't get my geforce2 gts to work in X with the nvidia driver.. I enabled intrepids proposed repos and I would like to install the 71.86.07 nvidia drivers but 71.86.04 is the only one listed still even though I did a reload.. any ideas?  apparently 71.86.04 has issues with xorg 1.5?
[02:58] <musikgoat|main> duckabolo: that could be the problem :-P
[02:58] <musikgoat|main> duckabolo: turn it up
[02:58] <Dr_willis> zappitelli16,  run wine path/to/whatever.exe and look for error messages.. check the wine app data base for the specific app also.
[02:58] <InfectedWithDrew> wolfspirit, have you tried finding it via google?
[02:58] <Dr_willis> !appdb | zappitelli16
[02:58] <duckabolo> musikgoat: it cannot be turned up
[02:58] <doug__> musikgoat|main, im sure it does - what i said just lists installed
[02:58] <musikgoat|main> doug__: ok, just confirming
[02:59] <wolfspirit> InfectedWithDrew: I found the blog of the guy who makes envy-ng who said it should be available via those repos
[02:59] <musikgoat|main> duckabolo: afk for 2 min
[02:59] <InfectedWithDrew> wolfspirit, so?  Try to find it manually and install it that way.
[02:59] <duckabolo> musikgoat: the volume control on 'system tray' equivalent isn't muted, but the 'touch pad' short cut on the laptop is muted
[02:59] <sudobash> 173 and 177 gave this.. this one is from 173: http://paste.ubuntu.com/74124/
[02:59] <sudobash> any ideas?
[02:59] <Stargazer> What's the command to (force) change permissions for a flash drive ?
[03:00] <wolfspirit> InfectedWithDrew: I could.. the point is to keep things specific to what's available in the repos.. cleaner that way.. I could easily go to nvidia's site and probably just compile it
